Political Analyst (3:24)

Yeah, you're right. It is personal. I think it reflects not just what's happened in the last few hours, but what's happened over the last four months. There's a certain, you know, shelf life with Trump, with anybody around him who sits in the shadow of the, you know, the spotlight he wants to occupy.

Steve Bannon (3:41)

Right.

Political Analyst (3:41)

And so I think this reflects a certain frustration that had been growing with Elon Musk over these last four months. They would have figured some way for him to stick around if they were. If everything was going really well. They didn't. He left. And so I think, yeah, it reflects something larger than just today.

Commentator/Host (3:57)

Let's stop here for a second. Why does any of this matter? Right. Two tarantulas in a bowl. Why does it matter? Well, here's why. When the most powerful person in our government fights with the richest person in the world, we as a public get to peer deep inside the most corrupt and superficial alliance in American political history. And as they claw and strike rhetorically at one another, they affirm our deepest concerns and suspicions. Trump confirms that Musk was always only in it to enrich his companies. And Musk confirms that Trump was always for sale.

Jack Posobic (4:38)

Yeah, it's absolutely delicious to watch. And were it not so impactful for the future of the country, you could laugh at it. Bannon is a guy who has defined himself as a thug, and thugs must do thuggish things. I think that Elon Musk has no idea what he's getting into when he gets in a fight with Steve Bannon over this. And, you know, under all of this sort of, I suspect Bannon thinks about this, there's a very good chance there's been a Lot of reporting that Elon Musk was not a student when he got a visa and when he got his went through his process of becoming a naturalized citizen, that he put false information on that document. If that's true, that is grounds for revoking the citizenship. It happens all the time. And under the Trump, that would mean deporting Musk and his children. You know, you could make a case that one of the reasons Musk is so obsessed with immigration is because he knows this.

Commentator/Host (5:35)

So.

Jack Posobic (5:37)

I think that in the heart and soul of MAGA out there, I'm with you. I would not bet against Steve Bannon.

Commentator/Host (5:47)

I want to deal with the substance of this and I promise to do that, but because for Trump, it's never about the substance. I want to stay with the leading men in Trump's life. With you, Stuart Stevens. The idea that Elon Musk is the alpha only exists in a world where Trump can be bought. And what's so amazing to me is that Trumpism has always been transactional for Trump, but we've never seen the public display of someone else getting to grift off Trump's presidency. Elon Musk feels like. Feels like the beta for that. Right? A real test case.

Steve Bannon (6:30)

This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people. Christians not got a free shot. All these networks lying about the people. The people have had a belly full of it. I know you don't like hearing that. I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it. It's going to happen. And where do people like that go to share the big lie? MAGA Media. I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience. Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose? If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved. War Room.

Stephen K. Bannon (7:12)

Here's your host, Stephen K. Band.

Steve Bannon (7:19)

It's Thursday the 5th of June, year of our Lord 2025. I had to step out this morning to go to a meeting that was quite important. I'll give you details on that later. But Dave, Brett took us home this morning and. Wow. I guess that the meeting with the Chancellor of Germany did not totally focus on the kinetic part of the Third World War. President Trump started talking about his thoughts about. About the bill and about comments and observations by Elon Musk, and then talked about Elon Musk and his time there. And of course, Elon Musk was live tweeting at the entire time. Jack Vasobic joins us, folks. To say it's devolved from there would be a vast understatement. This is unprecedented. It is unprecedented and unnecessary. From Elon Musk, some of the things he's putting up are just outside the bounds of any. Forget civility. But any type of behavior of which I don't remind people I told folks about that last cut right there. Stuart Stevens and Nicole Wallace, we said, you don't want to get into a fight with Steve Bannon. And you know, Bannon's going to win this thing or Bannon's going to think was from 31st December of 2024. Jack Bosoba, get us up to date. Some of these tweets are calling for President Trump to be impeached, bringing up the, I guess the F stop situation. Many others even worse, saying President Trump's only got three and a half years left. He's got 40 years. Walk me through. You're the, you know Twitter better than anyone. Walk us through what Elon Musk is saying about the president. I states President Trump right now.

Stephen K. Bannon (9:08)

Well, Steve, what can I say? It's a hot day on X, but I'm staying frosty. I am maintaining maximum frigidity. I am sub zero. But look, you're seeing a lot of throwdowns here. Look, this isn't, this isn't the female coded MSNBC talk. No, this is a throwdown. This is how, this is how men communicate. This is how men talk. And you've got a situation here where, yes, Elon has been retweeting things calling for President Trump's impeachment and J.D. vance to be installed as president. He said that he's going to be decommissioning the Dragon program. So taking out Space X. President Trump posting that he's going to cut all of Elon's contracts for Space X. And if he's worried about subsidies and all the rest and spending that he's going to cut, Elon's contracts will be the first thing to go and says that he doesn't understand why Biden never did. I'm not really sure how the libs are taking all of this. They're not sure if they need to be torching their Teslas or revving their engines right now review with an electric car. But, but a lot of this seems to be, I think it's, it's beyond the evidence credit at this point. This is the battle of the billionaires. And at the end of the day, you can't have two CEOs of one country or one company. Can't have two CEOs, you can't have two presidents. You can't have two bulls in one field. And that's what this comes down to. Only one of these individuals was elected President of the United States. And that name is Donald Trump.

Steve Bannon (10:34)

Yeah, we got a bull and we got a baby calf. As I've said, this guy, the reason this guy's so dangerous is that he doesn't know anything. He's a know it all. He knows some engineering. Don't get me wrong, I give a hat tip for that. But he doesn't know anything about the real world. Doge was. And for any fanboys that still exist while you're wrapping up in your cape tonight, understand on Doge there was. He didn't find any fraud. There's plenty of fraud out there. He didn't fight. This is President Trump's first complaint. Was this all bs, right? With the, with, with the, with the Doge, the act that President Trump should be taking immediately, I think when he threatens to take one of the big programs out of SpaceX, President Trump tonight should sign an executive order calling for the Defense Production act to be called in SpaceX and seize SpaceX tonight before midnight. The US government should seize it if a guy's going to sit there and start making quotes. Also, as we, Stuart Stevens talked back in January, I don't know why we haven't had a full investigation. Look, if you're going to deport illegal aliens, you got to deport illegal aliens. The good go with the, you know, the goose and the gander. They got to go back to this as Stuart Stevens talk about and go through everything about his immigration status. I happen to believe, given the facts that I've been shown, that he's an illegal alien and illegal aliens got to be deported. Also. This drug use is reported in the New York Times. The drug use in the New York Times, if that's a fact that ought to be investigated, you can't have a security clearance. Jack Posobic, as you know, Jack, if somebody in your unit had that type of drug, had that type of drugs and they had a security clearance, what would happen to them, sir?

Stephen K. Bannon (12:18)

Well, Steve, you remember that Hunter Biden popped positive, I believe, for cocaine on his very first weekend in the Navy Reserve. And even at that time, I don't remember if his father, I think his father was still the vice president at the time. He wasn't president yet or audio plan president yet. And Hunter Biden was Summarily separated from the United States, from the United States Navy over his very first weekend drilling as a Navy reservist. Over popping positive.

Steve Bannon (12:48)

Also, it should take his security clearance away and all contracts should be suspended pending, pending that investigation. Also, as I said on, on the Tim Pool show in Matt Gaetz's office, I think over a year ago, right, that was over a year ago where I said, hey, he's an agent of influence of the Chinese Communist Party because of his financial relationship in Tesla. That should be fully investigated. President Trump is a bull. Elon Musk is a baby calf. Okay? And now it's time, for the good of the country, the Republic, forget MAGA and the Republican Party. This is a national security issue. Now trace the level of national security issue of a very unstable individual that's out saying very, I think, dangerous things about the President United States. And he has to be investigated. Should be investigated immediately. And all contracts, all contracts associated, all government contracts should be immediately suspended. Given an investigation. Jack Bosovi is going to stick with us. Jack's all over the Twitter. This, this fight really metastasized when President Trump was just walking through Dave Brat about the big beautiful bill that Elon's been attacking. Johnson just tweets out, oh, I can't. Johnson keeps saying, I'm calling him, but I can't get on the phone. No, please, Johnson, don't make yourself bigger polly pockets than you already are. Don't tell the world. He won't take your call. You're speaker of the frickin House, dude. Start acting like it. God, if the guy won't take your call, don't tell the world about it. And don't send him any more information. He's got all the information. Tell him to pick up Politico. Tell him to go to the Hill. They got plenty of good information there. Go to Gateway Pundit, right? Go to Breitbart. Matt Bola's team is breaking it down. Give him Dave Brat's cell number. Have him text Dave Brat, right? Go to. No, go to Getter and get Dave Bratz charts, okay? That's what he needs to do. You don't need to send him inside information. Do you think that's going to change his mind after what he said about President Trump this afternoon? A bull and a baby calf. Jack Bosovic, Dave Bratt and yours truly. We'll break it all down in a moment. This July, there is a global summit of BRICS nations in Rio de Janeiro. The block of emerging superpowers, including China, Russia and Persia are meeting with the goal of displacing the United States dollar as the global currency. They're calling this the Rio Reset. As BRICS nations push forward with their plans, global demand for US Dollars will decrease, bringing down the value of the dollar and your savings. While this transition won't not happen overnight, but trust me, it's going to start in Rio. The Rio Reset in July marks a pivotal moment when BRICS objectives move decisively from a theoretical possibility towards inevitable reality.

Stephen K. Bannon (16:28)

Here's your host, Stephen K. Ban.

Steve Bannon (16:32)

Brad, you got some very specific thoughts about this, right?

Dave Brat (16:35)

Yeah. Well, I just don't like this fight because what it reveals about the structure of our country right now, you got oligarchs and monopolies, right? The Wall Street Journal I wanted to go over this morning, they're all writing about free markets. There's no free markets. There's the Magnificent Seven. Seven firms own about 35, 40% of the S&P 500. Elon's genius. No one's talking about it. But what did President Trump actually do here? Right. I can't really put my finger on it. There's a budget debate and then it blows up into this. And the problem is he's still the President, United States, whether you like him or not. And Elon says, I want to do what's good for the country. Well, do that. Show respect for the presidency. If you got a problem on ideas, debate the ideas. But to devolve it into threats against the presidency, the executive, which has probably got too much power in the first place. Right. We wanted to bring it back down to the Congress, back down to the people, to the states. And so to have someone of this magnitude taking it at the president and I don't think that route's going to be too successful.

Steve Bannon (17:31)

Dave Brack clearly has not had his number two principle out of my article, My article. Two chats. This is the power. This is what happens with these oligarchs. They're out of control. They have too much money and they think that, and they think they live off government contracts. The problem is the guy is. Don't give me the entrepreneur stuff. Everything he's associated with is a government contract. Government contract. You pull the government contracts and we'll see how tough this guy is. And that's what should be done right now. He's challenged the President of the United States. And as a national security issue, here's why. Oh, I don't know. We're kind of in the beginning stages of the kinetic part of the Third World War in the Eurasian landmass. I think we ought to be sending messages of strength to Putin, to Xi, to the mullahs in, in, in, in Tehran. We should not be allowed money to think they can push people around, particularly push the office of the President around and the President, United States around. And I think this is why it needs dramatic action. I would pull all the contracts immediately. I would sign an executive order to get the Defense Production act installed. About Space X, he said he's going to take down their primary product. Fine, do what you want to do. But we're seizing it tonight at midnight. And the government's going to step in and manage this thing for a while until we can get some stable management that meets, meets the, that meets the level of a, of a government contract. Also, the drug thing's got to be investigated. Illegal aliens got to be investigated. Everything associated. By the way, the biggest thing, Jack Posovic is investigating his relationship to the Chinese Communist Party. And that includes the real details, not a New York Times story. We need a real investigation about who forced the flag officers and the guys at the Pentagon to prep a top secret brief on the China war plan. How did that go down? We ought to have an investigation of that and go all the way back to who invited, who drafted this letter, to invite Xi to the Xi and invite him to sit up on the podium right in the stands when they were thinking of doing it outside. To the inauguration of the United States, the greatest enemy this country's ever had. The greatest existential threat it's ever had. Pasovik, your thoughts and ideas?

Stephen K. Bannon (19:39)

Well, actually, Steve, there's some information that I've known about the inauguration and that, that situation. So remember that she didn't go, but Charlie Kirk, who did go there, actually told me something about this and we talked about it on our, our thought crime show. Where he said that the Chinese Communist Party officials that accompanied the vice premier that did come over had electronic devices that they were using inside the staging areas, which they staged over at St. John's Church. They were using electronic devices. I said, charlie, they were probably scanning all of your cell phones. So you're in that room, and you got Bezos there, you got Elon there, you got Zuckerberg there, you got everyone else there. All of the incoming national security officials, the incoming cabinet, they were more than likely sucking up all the signals that they had from cell phones, from pii, trying to hack cell phones, all the different things that they could do with that level of individuals. So now you've got backdoor access directly to all of them. So this is a huge, huge security threat, and something that, unfortunately, I think happened because of the invitation of the CCP officials here, which I do believe was made in good faith. But at the same time, you can't deal with those people in good faith. Now, let's look back on this. Look, I care about the debt. This is the war room. You talk about the debt all the time here. Stephen K. Bannon has taught us about the. About the debt markets and the global finance and how this all works and how it all is inextricably linked. But if you want to keep your country, you need mass deportations. And mass deportations, by the way. And I'll check with Bratz charts on all of this. Mass deportations actually help out with the debt issues. Why? Because 43% of immigrants are illegal, and illegal are on some form of welfare, some form of entitlement. So all of this focus on the debt has been on the projections of the supply side. Well, what if you reduce the demand side through mass deportations? Through dealing with these programs, dealing with the individuals who are here. It makes so much sense. I've heard any of these guys talk about it.

Steve Bannon (21:49)

But.

Stephen K. Bannon (21:49)

But, but what's. What's. What the real issue is here, Steve, is, is this. You broke the chain of command. There's one president of the United States, there is one commander in chief, someone who's an sge, an advisor, a friend, all of these things. That's great, but there is a chain of command, and in the chain of command of the United States government, the President comes first, Period. Full stop.

Dave Brat (22:12)

Yeah, so I quoted you this morning on that, on savings to entitlement, all that great work the other day. Those comments are great. And then also, the weight of the world is on the presidency, right? He's responsible. Elon is not Responsible, morally, politically, for the real outcomes of all these interrelations between all these moving pieces. He just gets to do, you know, cheap shots.

Steve Bannon (22:37)

He's another government contractor.

Dave Brat (22:38)

I don't want to get off thesis, but there's, there's a lot of notable name, Jamie Dimon, Morgan Stanley coming out. Hey, we have a debt problem. Hey, we ought to be building up the defense, right? Like he's running for president now. It's easy to say that after it's already on the media. The, the, the immigration problem has been around for a decade now. People are just noticing it.

Steve Bannon (22:56)

But you're wandering away here. You're running around. This is not about. People can make comments, you can make comments. This is not what this is about. He promised and committed. He was given access. He had admiration, he had resources. They did everything to support him. He told the President, I'm going to find $2 trillion in cuts for this year in waste, fraud and abuse. The President said, fine. Then he came back to trillion. President said fine. President had his back, defended him, sold, you know, promoted the cars on when he was getting attacked, had his attorney general defend this guy at every step of the way. President Trump had this guy's back and promoted him, right? And what he did, he gave false information. This was not just incompetence. What did Scott Bessen call him? Scott Bessen called him a fraud in the Oval Office outside. That's why Elon attacked him, because he called him a fraud. He said, hey, you committed to the President a trillion dollars. You got nothing. We've been here for five months and you've been performance art all over town for yourself. Your chainsaw and your wraparound sunglass, all for yourself, not for the country, not for the President, not for maga, not for, not for the American people, for yourself. And then he had every accident. Now he says, I didn't see the bill. Nobody read the bill. What are you talking about? Everybody had this bill up there. You could have read it and you knew the numbers. You didn't need to read 9,000 pages. The math was there, debated every day on the war. We talked about this ad nauseam. Of course he saw the numbers and people talked to him about the numbers. He had no problem with the numbers. Johnson, Polly Pocket said, he never called me and they talked every day. Never talked to me about this. The President said he never made one comment. He had no problem about that. Now when he doesn't get the EVs, and it's not just about the EVs, President Trump, the Axio story said it. And President Trump said it today. He said, hey, no offense, I kind of fired him. I let him go. He wanted to extend. I wouldn't extend him, okay? Then it got personal with him. And now he comes out, he's attacking to kill the bell. He's not sitting there going, hey, I think Ron Johnson's got some really good ideas. I think Mike Lee's got some ideas. My point is, Jamie Dimon, everybody, people make comments, we make comments. Comments all over, observations all over. This is not what this is. He went and then personally, without informing the President of the United States, who he had told. He had told us, hey, I'm not gay, but I love this man. I love this man more than any man can love a man. Remember that? I love this man. I love this man more than anybody can love a man. I know it sounded gay, but he told us up front, I'm not gay, okay? But I love this man. That guy, the love doctor, right? What does he do? He doesn't inform the president. He comes out of nowhere. He's putting up. He's putting the kill bill thing out there to kill the bill. Not saying, we need some changes here. Ron Johnson's got some good ideas. I think Josh Hawley's got a couple of three. The guys in the Senate now. I got Andy Biggs, I've got the hawks of the Freedom Caucus are saying, hey, I think we got some stuff that we want to change. Of course, the taxes don't expire until December 31st. That's the day we have to do it. We know we have to do it. And people have a lot of work. And people, this town are working around the clock. Some are working for the lobbyist, some are working for the populist. Elon Musk is working for himself. President Trump empowered him more than anyone's ever been empowered in this government. Had his back, promoted this guy. And when people like me who said, you're making a mistake, right, this is a bad guy, he's going to turn on you. He's not with us. He's also totally incompetent. And President Trump said, hey, give this guy a shot. And I trust President Trump's judgment enough to say, as people know, I backed off a little, right? Not a lot. I backed off a little. But it's not about observations. As soon as he didn't think he ran the deal or got the adoration right, that he was starting to be saying, where's the trillion dollars, right? What is this? He turned on President Trump, he turned on maga, but most importantly, he turned on the country and the American people. And President Trump just had enough of it. And he forced his way back in to have like some last day. They didn't want to do that, but fine. And then as soon as President Trump comes out today and President Trump's saying it in the nicest way possible about the bill, right, the bill. Ba bing, ba bing bing. The guy gets up and starts tweeting the most vicious stuff you could tweet. So all the fanboys defend this. He accused President Trump of basically being a group with those pedophiles on the island. He called for, he called for the President to be impeached and JD Vance to take his role. As hard as we've worked in all the years that we've walked in this audience's work, some punk is going to sit there and go, he should be impeached. And hey, as sure as the turning of the earth, if those progressives rub up on him and, and say, hey, they're never going to buy the, they're never going to buy the Teslas. Where they're going to buy the Teslas. They rub up on him, he'll write a $500 million check for Akeem Jeffries. He'll be across the thing looking to impeach President Trump, looking to help steal the 28 election, looking to imprison President Trump. So here's my point. Let's get ahead of it and let's get ahead of it tonight. There's lots to be done. This guy is all over the map. He's right. But he's emblematic of these oligarchs. All of them have the maturity of a nine year old. And they're dangerous. They're dangerous not just to the President of the United States. More importantly, they're dangerous to this republic and the citizens of this constitutional republic. Short break, brat. My philosopher and Jack Posobic intel next in the war room.

Stephen K. Bannon (29:54)

Here's your host, Stephen K. Banner.

Steve Bannon (29:58)

Okay, we've got Jack. Jack over. It's got a bounce. He got a good Jack. Got a better gig than doing the five o' clock war room here. So give us your closing thoughts on this Twitter fight you've seen today.

Stephen K. Bannon (30:10)

Steve, I have duties and responsibilities. Duties and responsibilities that look, you know, you got a situation here where in many cases I think that this was something that was always going to be inevitable. I think that it would have happened at some point regardless of this bill specifically. I do think there's always been this sort of edging that's going on one way or the other. But at the end of the day, whether, whether it's debt or whether whatever issue you want to talk about, mass immigration. And I've always said this, look, the reason that this is the MAGA movement and Donald Trump's movement and we are almost exactly 10 years away from the golden escalator moment. So it's going to be the 10 year anniversary coming up very soon here. The reason that it's that movement and not the Jeb Bush movement and the Jeb Bush presidency in because tax cuts, it ain't because of balance the budget. No, it is because of borders. It is because of trade and tariffs and it's because of foreign policy. Those are the three issues that make up the backbone of the MAGA populist movement, period. Full stop.

Steve Bannon (31:15)

But, but, but, but hang on. It's also a guy. Listen, this is why I, and I say this as a student of history and someone's been very involved in this and has stayed going to prison, all of it. It's because of also a man, right the country. Washington was the indispensable figure of all the great revolutionaries. He was the indispensable figure. Lincoln was the indispensable figure for the rebirth of the nation, right? General Washington at the birth, Lincoln at the rebirth and the reclaiming of the nation and the rejuvenation of the nation is Donald Trump without Trump coming down that escalator. Folks, I had a ringside seat and I will tell you, it ain't the Elon Musk galore. They come and go all the time. They're dime a dozen, okay? And all the fanboys, you're just, you're just. You look at Tony Stark, pick your comic books back up and go back to your basement room and sit in the corner for a while. Donald Trump is a man. And he stood in the breach when everybody else would have wilted. And he made one of the greatest profiles in courage. And Donald Trump's very imperfect. I ain't saying he's perfect. He's very imperfect. It's his imperfections and rising above them that makes him great. He consciously made a decision in January and February and March of 2021 to come back and say that election was stolen. I know it was stolen. I cannot rest until we make. We make that right. We set things right. There's an illegitimate regime under Biden and I will go and he went through hell for years. The first two years. Besides this show and Jack Bosovic, a real America's Voice and a handful of podcasts, the Breitbart guys, he was totally ignored by Fox and the Wall Street Journal and the National Review and all of them, okay? He made a conscious decision, that conscious decision. I know they're going to try to bankrupt me. I know they're going to try to smear me. I know they're going to try to take down my family and I don't have any power. They got the deep state, they got the big tech bros. They got lords of Easy money. They got the media, they got everybody. And I'm making a decision. I'm coming back. You know what I got? I got my followers, my people, the deplorables, right? The hobbits. And the hobbits got around him and lifts him on the shoulder and said, you're our guy. Yes. Because it's about the sovereignty of the nation and sealing the border and shipping 13 million out of here. Let me change that. 13 million in one. Because Elon Musk is illegal and he's got to go, too. Okay? You're gonna ship these other people home. Let's start with. Let's start with the South Africans, okay? And I got a couple other could go to. But he's illegal deport immediately. This is what he did. No, forever. Wars are going to set the finances in the country, right? We're going to stop the invasion of the country, and we're going to ship out all the illegal aliens. And people got around in the longest of long shots. We won. Now, we picked up, as you say on Wall Street, a little deal baggage, okay? Elon wrote a big check, no doubt about it. In Wall street terms, it's deal baggage. You have to just deal with it over time. Posobic and this is why Trump is a hero and Elon Musk is not. And Elon Musk and his little, you know, jumping around the stage on ketamine and everything like that, with Maga cheering him on, and he's doing the thing and going to the inauguration and he's a big shot and he's getting all that adulation. He doesn't understand that's for Trump. That's for Trump because Trump's the man that got in the arena and did it and risk everything, including going to prison for 300 years. We'll see how good Elon Musk takes a little that pressure, because I happen to think a little that pressure might be coming. Jack Bosovic, what's your social media? Where do you go, sir?

Stephen K. Bannon (34:53)

What's that? Jack Bosobic room up on the Thought Crime podcast. We're gonna go live. We're gonna drop that a little bit earlier tonight. And Steve, I'll just say it. There's a reason that they've been trying to stop Trump for all of these 10 years, because he's the one man who could do what he did. There's a reason they tried to strip him from the ballot to stop him from running. There's a reason they tried to bankrupt him, to try to imprison him, and tried to have his head blown off live on cnn. We all know it. It's because Donald J. Trump is singularly the one man for this time of this century that could save the American republic.

Steve Bannon (35:30)

Brother, thank you so much. Good luck on your podcast. Given the 10 years that starts on the 15th, the day after the 250th anniversary of the army, the big parade, the celebration we're going to have. Dave, what really gets under my craw today is the audacity to sit there and talk about impeaching Trump, knowing what Hakeem Jeffries would do. That is someone that doesn't understand our movement, doesn't understand the people in our movement don't understand what we talk and don't understand what our people have gone through for 10 years. Remember, it was hard at the beginning when Trump was mocked and ridiculed and dismissed, particularly by Fox when they tried to take him out in that very first debate in 2015, 45 days after he came down the escalate first week of June. You know, Megyn Kelly, Brent Bear, all of them. We've kind of made amends with Megyn at the time. I don't even think it was her choice. It was Murdoch's choice that you see in the Wall Street Journal every day. But the audacity to call for his impeachment, everything that guy's done for you, everything he did to promote you, your failures, and you're calling for his impeachment. This is. And Hakeem Jeffries. And knowing Hakeem Jeffries will do and with all the programs that we do, right? And he's sitting there saying, I'm a big maga guy. Hakeem Jeffries would destroy everything. It would make the also the next two years absolute torture.

Dave Brat (36:47)

Yeah. I'm not making any judgments, but this is where the Judeo Christian west comes in, Right? There's a transcendent aspect to this, about being thankful to God above, Right? And that thankfulness results in respect for the country. And the country is we the people. And I am thankful. You know, I had tremendous friendships. The people that came and worked for me, they traveled hours, days, walked, did everything. And I don't think he understands that piece. What he, the people he's putting down right now are in the hundred million range. Right. It's not about him and having this pithy little argument. It might be fun, but he doesn't understand what's going on in the world right now. Right? There's a kinetic war of major proportions going on right now. We have the bond market erupting. We got a border crisis. We got a rule of law problem. We got a judiciary that's out of whack. We got a second Article 2 debate between me and you coming up. Some other time, I guess. But he doesn't get the significance, the moral significance of what it means to love. Right? To love God, to love your country. It appears to me. Right. All political views are my own. But to make those comments and to crash the only guy who's standing in the breach on all these issues, right. Without him.

Steve Bannon (38:09)

Let me be blunt about. Let me be blunt about something else we talk about every day. When President Trump takes a morning call from Xi, he has a call yesterday with Putin, hour and a half. Call Putin, hour and a half Call with xi. Two of the toughest hombres in history. We're on the cusp right now, ladies and gentlemen, of a war. We're in the kinetic, early stages of kinetic part. If Trump is the peacemaker and we can't put it to bed and try to negotiate this thing, this war will be more brutal and more savage and more property loss and more people lost and more lives destroyed and more families destroyed and more kids destroyed than World War I and 2 combined. So he's got that. He's also got the court trying to chop block him on everything. And every day they're giving him legal briefs and, you know, they're trying to bind him up. And he got, you can't do anything. You're not commander in Chief. You can't send the bad hombres out of here. You can't deport anybody. Every day, hundreds of briefs, lawyers running out of the, out of the, out of the Oval Office, talking about the briefs on every court, 200 lawsuits, and every day they're filing something else. Then he's got the big, beautiful bill. He had to go as President of the United States for the first time in the history of this republic, had to go up to Capitol Hill to talk to the conference, to whip in himself because Johnson and Emers are too incompetent to do it. And quite frankly, the bill is kind of all over the map. It's what we got. It's being made better by people right now. There's going to be a lot of fights about that. Trump's got to go up and do that. Then he's got yesterday, he's got calls, the Senate Finance Committee down the White House. This guy works 20 hours a day. And these aren't small problems. Not problems we face here at the warm is not the problems in your life. The problems your life are big for you. And we know that, like, our problems are big for us. He's working at a world historical level of problems and solutions that will set the country for the next 50, 60, 70 years and set the world where maybe 100 million people die or they don't. This is the pressure on the guy. And to have the audacity to send these tweets out and to say, I want him, I want him, I want him impeached. No, he's only here for three and a half years. I think Elon Musk said, I'm there for 40. Well, bro, I hope you know how to work in a prison cell for 40, okay? Because don't think you're just going to come after Trump and people around Trump and people understand what Trump's been through and understand what he's going through today. Think about your own life. Think about what this guy deals with. Well, I did my hour and a half call with Putin right where I know this guy already is, is, is livid because his strategic bombers were hit and they're going to hit back because these are the Russians, okay? And you got Xi, who I would argue is the most powerful emperor in the history of China and has been around for 10,000 fricking years. And he's. And you're doing him. And when you finish that, you walk into the Germans. I think I remember them from the 20th century, right? The Germans are here and they got all kind of issues and need all kind of help, and they're sitting there. You got to defend this, you got to do this, you got to do that. And they've, they've done the green new scam. Dave Walsh tells you every day. It's one of the reasons the country's imploding. Trump's got to deal with that every second of every day. The insolvable problems come to his desk. And you think that someone who lied to him about a trillion dollar cut and gave air cover to this group of clowns up here so they didn't have to cut anything then. Oh, well, he came to our conference, told us it was going to be a trillion dollars of waste, fraud and abuse. Oops, oops. And then when you attack the bill and not to make positive, constructive changes, which, yes, the bill needs that. This audience knows that. People know that. Ron Johnson knows it. We've had him on. People are working on it. Some things people are going to like some people, other things are not. Like, I'm banging the drum every day to raise taxes on the wealthy. I think it's going to work, but I don't know if it's going to work. But you're certainly not going to sit there with the guy who's got all this pressure and try to say, oh, we ought to impeach him and put somebody else in. Right now, this is about the immaturity. And now you've got the thing with oligarchs. They got this kind of money. The immaturity come after you. And this is why a guy that stood in the breach, like Trump only comes along once in a century event. Most countries in the world don't have a General Washington. They don't have an Abraham Lincoln, they don't have a Donald Trump, this is why a guy like this is incredible. And if you look at this journey that we've taken starting on the 15th of June, you see it. I tell you what, hang on, hang on. We're gonna hold on. We're gonna go to the break. I'm gonna. Finally. I'm gonna turn the mic over. Brat, you're in the war room. Dude, you gotta grab the mic. Don't sit here. Don't think by you're doing good. Don't. No, don't think by being the philosopher over there that we need some wisdom.

Okay, we have two tales of one phone call that's both out now. The Chinese. I'm gonna give you the Chinese. First. She says US should remove negative measures on China that would be terrorists and other things. She tells Trump China has implemented the Geneva agreement, which President Trump says they have not. She also says it's important to spell disruptions in China US Relations. He wants to be. He's not a decoupled guy. As you know, the worms. Decouple, Hardcore decouple. She says US should deal with Taiwan and I quote cautiously. So they're laying down the marker there now. The president has put up his readout. I'll read it to you in his entirety. I just concluded a very good phone call with President Xi of China discussing some of the intricacies of a recently made and agreed to trade deal. The call lasted approximately one and a half hours and resulted in a very positive conclusion for both countries. There should be no longer any questions respecting the complexity of rare earth products. That means the magnets and the ball bearings were somehow talked about. That's the. The big deal. The processing part. Our respective teams will be meeting shortly at a location to be determined. We were resumptive Secretary of Treasury Scott Bessant, Commerce Secretary Lutnick, United States Trade Rep. Ambassador Greer. During the conversation, President Xi graciously invited the first lady and me to visit China and I reciprocated President Trump of the United States. As presidents of two great nations, this is something that we both look forward to doing. The conversation was focused almost entirely on trade. That's in capital letters. President Trump. Nothing was discussed concerning Russia, Ukraine or Iran, so no strategic discussions. We will inform the media as to scheduling and location of the soon to be meeting that is with the representatives. Thank you for your attention in this matter. President Trump, two interpretations, right? Chinese not, not shy about putting out. Hey, he says we didn't go with what happened in Geneva with Besson. These guys, we're complying with all of it. Okay. The issues about the rare earth folks should understand that's a big deal, particularly these magnets and I think ball bearings, the processing of this. So somehow that's got. And there's some discussion, of course, no strategic discussion.

Dave Brat (47:33)

And you know, when you just put yourself in the President's seat, right. When it comes to ball bearings and architecture, we have to reveal because we're transparent country and we're honest good people, our weaknesses up front because our people have a say in this government and so we have to respond so they get leverage. Can you imagine the leverage we have on them that we don't know about? They're in a way worse position than we are. Right. And so this shows you the humanity of President Trump. He's thinking through this, right. Strategically, but he's also got small business people in mind. Xi has no, he could care less about humanity. Right.

Steve Bannon (48:09)

If his people got careless about the Chinese people, Right.

Dave Brat (48:12)

If they get crushed for some years due to trade and whatever, we, we have total leverage over them right now.

Steve Bannon (48:17)

Okay? The rare earths are self owned. The rare earths are nothing but dirt. But the processing of rare earths and it's very messy. And this is why the environmentalists and essentially I think there was a company in Ohio and I don't know how CFIUS approved this, but years ago, I think 10 years ago, the Chinese thinking downrange, as they always do, the CCP purchased the, basically the processing and took it apart and shipped it to China. So the processing part, I think was in Ohio, was a company and they bought it for under a billion dollars. That company is one of the most strategic assets they have because this is where they get the magnets. And people should understand there are manufacturing companies, they're sitting there going, hey, unless I get these things, we may be shutting down two or three lines here.

Dave Brat (49:05)

So you're in favor of long term strategic thinking and always. Brilliant points I was making, always.

Steve Bannon (49:11)

But you're still like, no, stop, stop. I agree with that. I'm telling you, you're sound like a pilgrim. Ron Johnson will tell you, no, you were over that. Dude, you're a guy. Let me just reiterate for Dave Brad. He's the only person in the history of this nation, of this republic that defeated a sitting majority leader in a primary and beat the guy by 10 points with a, with a 10 bucks, right? With Julia Hahn, Laura Ingram and Breitbart. Right. The only, the only guys that had your back in doing that when you went to Capitol Hill, they wouldn't let him go to the Congressional room where you eat lunch, the lunchroom. They told him the first day he's got his tray and little Dave Brad's. They go, no soup, no soup for you. They throw him out. And then Dave Brad goes up, hey, everybody's getting committee assignments. How much money do I have to raise? I go, no, no, no, you don't have to raise any. You don't get a committee assignment. So you're sitting there telling me you're going to walk up and hey, let's get a strategic plan.

Dave Brat (50:09)

Let's get a vision statement. That's the vision.

Steve Bannon (50:11)

Here's the vision statement. No maga. That's a vision.

Dave Brat (50:14)

Yeah. Well, and believe it or not, we actually had a vision statement on paper in Virginia, the Virginia Republican creed, which no one follows.

Steve Bannon (50:21)

Right.

Dave Brat (50:21)

Balance the budget. You ever heard of that thing? I mean, it's just unbelievable. And all Those guys, the 100 Blobules, I'm talking about our conference. They're all going to go out and give speeches right now and they're going to say, I'm a fiscal hawk, I'm for a balanced budget. Why did you vote for $7 trillion budget? Why didn't you message ahead of time. Right. You don't, you don't have to, you don't have to be throwing it down all day. Right. And toxic. You can just tell the speaker in advance when you come in. I'm not voting for a deficit.

Steve Bannon (50:46)

Okay. Next hour, Senator Josh Hawley is going to join. Hawley's all over the judges on the judiciary.
