Transcript

[Steve Bannon]

Is going to make much of a difference. If you like me, like me. If you don't, you don't. I have no illusions about changing anyone's mind. But I do want to make something clear because it's important to me as a human. And that is, you understand that it was never my intention to make light of the murder of a young man.

I don't.

I don't think there's anything funny about it. I posted a message on Instagram of the day he was killed sending love to his family and asking for compassion. And I meant it, and I still do. Nor was it my intention to blame any specific group for the actions of what it was. Obviously a deeply disturbed individual. That was really the opposite of the point I was trying to make. But I understand that to some that felt either ill timed or unclear or maybe both. And for those who think I did point a finger. I get why you're upset. If the situation was reversed, there's a good chance I'd have felt the same way. I have many friends and family members on the other side who I love and remain close to. Even though we don't agree on politics at all. I don't think the murderer who shot Charlie Kirk represents anyone. This was a sick person who believed violence was a solution and it isn't. Ever. And also, selfishly, I am. I am a person who gets a lot of threats. I get many ugly and scary threats against my life, my wife, my kids, my co workers, because of what I choose to say. And I know those threats don't come from the kind of people on the right who I know and love. So that's what I wanted to say on that subject. But I don't want to make this about me because. And I know this is what people say when they make things about them, but I really don't. This show, this show is not important. What is important is that we get to live in a country that allows us to have a show like this. I mean, I think he says he said a lot of things. He didn't double down, which I think was expected. But I think he said something that was the most significant and sort of, I think, inspired a lot of the backlash, which is that his show is not important. But living in a country that allows shows like his to exist is important. And that, I think is honestly the catalyst for so much of the organic pushback and the consumer pushback that you saw against Disney suspension to pull up in the first place. And I think that, to me, was the most significant takeaway that's what this is about, about going after explicitly people they view as political enemies or opponents and silencing those voices.

How dangerous do you view that moment to be?

[Luke]

I view it as very dangerous. It is right out of the authoritarian playbook, Willie. I mean, this is, you know, this is point four of the authoritarian playbook. Silence your opponents, cripple the media. That doesn't give you the slavish attention and agreement that you desire. Use the power of the government to go after corporations and individuals. I thought, you know, Jimmy Kimmel did an excellent job last night in, you know, being very emotional, actually, about that moment for him and how he felt misunderstood and he certainly didn't want to hurt anyone's feelings. But on the other hand, you know, standing up for free speech, I've said a million times, I mean, good Lord, the things that have been said about me, the lies that have been propagated. If I had only known I could call up the FCC chair and say, take this person off the air. Get that person out of my sight. Off with his head. I'm just looking at Joe.

[Stephen K. Band]

What?

[Steve Bannon]

What I've done nothing but be kind.

[Luke]

Well, once you saw the light, I mean, it was sort of an epiphany.

[Stephen K. Band]

Why don't you admit we were the.

[Steve Bannon]

Only ones at this network in 2000Y.

[Luke]

But, you know, you have to laugh about it so you don't cry, because what is happening is so contrary to the founding principles and values this country was built on. Why is the First Amendment the First Amendment right? You know, it's because the people who constructed the, you know, architecture of this incredible country of ours understood what it was like to live under absolute power, where you would be told what to say, what not to say. Don't insult the king. Don't, you know, do anything that will displease the king. We've got to stand against that. And I appreciated Jimmy Kimmel calling out some of the Republicans, frankly, who stood up and said, wait a minute, this is not right. We can't go here. But they're not going to stop. They're going to try, because that's what authoritarians do. They want to silence people who are raising questions, who are asking, you know, really, what does this mean? How can you do this? I mean, what are you talking about? You have no scientific evidence. You have no basis for that.

[Steve Bannon]

A middle finger to the United Nations. That's how one headline described Donald Trump's speech to the UN General assembly this morning, which at times sounded more like a campaign rally. Than an address to the world on stage or to the world stage. Trump called climate change a kanja, questioned whether the United nations should even exist, and lectured foreign leaders about immigration, even telling them, quote, your countries are going to hell. Just hours later, after meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, Trump completely shifted his stance on Russia's war now, saying he thinks Ukraine could win back its territory and return to its original order.

[Luke]

How did the international community feel about his speech?

[International Affairs Commentator]

Well, George Bush said back after the first Trump inaugural speech, that was some weird s blink, bleep it out. And I think that was kind of the reaction of much of the international community. I mean, we have a column from the FTSE in the FTSE right now putting it out because it was a very, very weird speech under anyone's standards, even President Trump's standards. I would actually echo what Luke just said about the fact that what we didn't hear today was a threat to pull the US out of the United nations, to cut all its funding, to smash the whole operation apart. And frankly, that's progress, because he could have done that. Instead, what we had was this really weird scatter gun speech of going all over the map. You know, he's obsessed with windmills being evil. He started talking about the Scottish countryside at one point. He started talking about, you know, shouting.

[Luke]

At windmills, I don't know, tilting at windmills.

[International Affairs Commentator]

Right, exactly. So I think people, on the one hand, internationally, are used to this crazy world. It absolutely was done for his base. But in substance, it wasn't quite as bad as it could have been about.

[Luke]

The constitution is 238 years old this month. Are we still headed toward a more perfect union? I think right now we're on pause. I think that people are uncertain, some people are actually scared about what's going on in our country. The idea of we the people, that all men and women are created equal, that seems to be in the crosshairs of those on the right who want to turn the clock back on the progress that has been made, writing out huge chunks of our history. Slavery, suffrage, anything inconvenient, you know, take it out of museums, take it out of national parks.

[Steve Bannon]

Even Abraham Lincoln's own words, even Abraham Lincoln's own evolution. You can't look at this American story and not be proud because of that progress.

[Luke]

Well, I wish you would record that and literally go play it outside the White House and the Congress 24 7, because, you know, I love my country and I love it, you know, warts and all. And I am proud of the fact that we have always been a work in progress. You know, we haven't gotten to the more perfect union, and we fought a civil war over part of it. And people have been protesting, you know, for hundreds of years that, you know, things were not as they should be, given our ideals and how we should be moving toward them. So I think that's what makes us so special as a country. And the idea that you could turn the clock back and try to recreate a world that never was dominated by, you know, let's say it, white men of a certain persuasion, a certain religion, a certain point of view, a certain ideology is just doing such damage to what we should be aiming for. And we were on the path toward that. I mean, imperfectly. Lots of, you know, bumps along the way. But I agree with you.

[Steve Bannon]

We.

[Luke]

We were on the right trajectory.

[Steve Bannon]

This is the primal scream of a dying regime.

[Stephen K. Band]

Pray for our enemies because we're going.

[Steve Bannon]

Medieval on these people.

[Stephen K. Band]

There's 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.

[Steve Bannon]

You'Re not going to stop it.

[Stephen K. Band]

It's going to happen.

[Steve Bannon]

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.

[Stephen K. Band]

Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?

[Steve Bannon]

If that answer is to save my.

[Stephen K. Band]

Country, this country will be saved.

[Steve Bannon]

War room.

[Stephen K. Band]

Here's your host, Stephen K. Band.

[Steve Bannon]

It's Wednesday the 24th of September, year of our Lord 2025. We had the blubbering. Jimmy Kimmel can't even be a man when he comes back. I got a blubber right. Try to get audience sympathy all about him. You know, I didn't. I dismantled him. You're the stone cold liar, dude. Come on, man, be a man and step up and just own what you said. Just own it. You were trying to smear maga. You're trying to steer this in a. In a certain direction. And you see how they're doing it. About the disturbed young man. He's so just a disturbed young man. He's disturbed young. No, he's a product of the radicalization that you, bro, and all the progressive left have brought. Have. Have brought on this country. Right there. You saw the entire apparatus. Oh, my gosh, they're so authoritarian. Were they whining and crying for the First Amendment? You ever Hear the First Amendment during the years in the wilderness when they stole the 2020 election, let's be blunt, stole the 2020 election and installed Biden, who they knew was virtually incapacitated at the time, and then for years hid that incapacity. There is nothing these people will not do to, to remain in power. And Hillary Clinton, I love my country. You love your country so much, you, you sold it out to every international institution. You set up the Clinton Global Initiative. You set what the Clinton found, all of that to suck in money from everywhere in the world, to use it for your own personal aggrandizement. And then you go down that fantastic spot that Stephen Miller and others played. I think it was like three and a half minutes. Our closing argument in the 2016 campaign when you went, I believe it was in Brazil and gave a talk, remarks, a speech in front of the international bankers. Will you brag about. You sold your country out. You sold your countrymen out. You and your husband, right? They used to play off working class whites in Arkansas with all your phoniness and all your lies. Hillary, by the way, she's throwing the hat in the ring right there. She's on Morning Joe trying to sound presidential. You never know she's going to give it one more shot. Since she was 9 years old, she wanted to be president. I go to sleep every night and when I say my prayers, one is that I was fortunate enough to work for, I think, the greatest political candidate we've ever had at the beginning of his political career, President Trump, and defeat her and keep it. Do you understand where this country would be? Think about this for a second. With her prepared to put Mayor Garland on the Supreme Court and Hillary Clinton in the White House. Embrace that for a second. Where would this nation be? Where would this nation be? And last night we're going to have more. We got Gavin Newsom. I'm worried about. There's going to be a 2028 election. I'm worried about even we're going to hold the election. You ought to, you ought to be concerned about holding it because if you're the candidate, you're going to get smoked. All they're doing, all nonstop and you can tell we're winning. And this is why we have to go to the maximalist strategy urgency every day, take as much as we can and seize the institutions. They know we're winning and they're trying to slow it down. You see that whining right there? They understand that we're taking back the media, that, that we're we're standing up to the corrupt voices of ABC and people like Jimmy Kimmel. That embarrassing. And they're saying he was so great. He was that blubbering. Not even man a humunculus. I don't even know what you call it because it was so funny. Then he pivoted for the rest of it. Just attacked President Trump and they say that's oh, this is go so great. Hey, we're winning. It's now time to double and triple down. You can never let him breathe. You can't let him get off all up the off the canvas. They're totally and completely evil and demonic and everything they do is try to get their narrative. Look. Look at what they're doing now on the shooter. Oh, he just. He's an aberration. Just evil. Young man, he's a product of your system. And this is what's so great about now cash. Expanding the investigation within the FBI and now that we have both. What the nve. The nihilistic violent extremist that they're looking at the paramilitary operations of these manipulative men called trannies. They're not in transition to be a girl. They're a man. Okay? A man that's got mental problems. We're on fire and we're winning. We cannot back off this exact moment, the inflection point. We have to double and triple down and crush them. No unity, no compromise. No group hugs. No kumbaya. Short break. Be back in the warm in just a moment.

[Stephen K. Band]

Welcome back. We're tracking a developing story in Texas.

Where three detainees have been shot at an ICE field office in Dallas. An ICE spokesperson has now confirmed that two or three people shot are dead, the third in the hospital. No ICE officers were hurt. The shooter died of a self inflicted gunshot wound. The spokesperson cautioned that information still very fluid.

That is official. The shooter's deceased, as we've already mentioned, but there are multiple injuries and fatalities than potentially the three that we were initially hearing.

[Interviewer]

So I just wanted to add that.

[Steve Bannon]

Piece of information is that we continue to get more details that coming from Kristi Noem and. And that is again a latest there on that situation.

[Reporter]

You know, Jonathan, we're making phone calls. I actually just heard from an FBI spokesperson who said that FBI agents are headed to the scene. They would not elaborate anymore. As you mentioned, the situation is very fluid, but we are making phone calls to learn more. We also learned that the scene is in the control of Dallas pd. So we're making those phone calls as well to try to learn more information. But we have learned from ice, According to an ICE spokesperson, as you mentioned, three individuals were shot. Two of them have died. The third individual is in the hospital and ICE pointed out that ICE agents were not hurt. Now, they are investigating the motive of the shooting, but of course it's very early in the investigation and they say that they don't have a motive at this point. But they did mention the fact that there has been a lot of violence directed towards ice. And as you know, there's been a lot of emotions around the Trump administration's mass deportation efforts around the country. We've all seen very dramatic videos outside ICE detention centers. And again, ICE is saying that they are investigating the motive, that they don't have a motive at this time. But Jonathan, we are making phone calls trying to learn more. As I mentioned mentioned moments ago, FBI agents are headed to the scene as well.

[Steve Bannon]

So yesterday, this is the big thing, California. And I'll get Gavin Newsom here in a minute on his clip. California has passed a law that the ICE agents and the agents doing this can't wear masks because they're being docs, their families are being harassed. They're coming under in Antifa every night in Portland. And now that we designated Antifa a terrorist organization, which is really to get to that middle layer, as I keep telling you, of the military guys that train them and national security people that train them. Right. That are far leftist because there's a lot infesting our military and the deep state. Right. Then you've got the, you know, all the NGOs that support them and the billionaires that support them. That's where you have to use tariff financing toolbox to go after that. But the ICE agents are under assault. DHS announced yesterday that in the first 250 days of the Trump's second term, President Trump's second term, the 2 million, they're saying 2 million, I think illegal aliens have, are, have left the country. 2 million. Most of those I think do self deportation. Just realizing, hey, the law is going to be forced. Maybe I don't want to now I'm really going to have to live in the shadows. It's not going to be open, brazen in people's face that these employers are hiring illegal aliens over American citizens because they don't want to pay a decent wage and they don't want to pay the medical and they want to dump all the problems onto our, into the medical system, to the school system. This is one of the reasons the schools are getting crushed that in the, in the Marxist administrators and teachers that run them. It's also one of the reasons that, you know, you have to now go to emergency room to get any help in some of these poor rural areas or in cities. Two million, that is a milestone. And we have not begun, contrary to the report right there, we have not begun the mass deportations. What did I say back in 2020, what was it, 2023. Over Thanksgiving, I gave a speech down in Pinehurst that Talked about the first, actually the second hundred days be around day 200, that the convergence of cuts to social programs and that you needed to get to eventually get to this madness of our budget process and the spending coupled with the beginning of mass deportations, you were going to. It was going to get. It was going to get crazy in the streets because that's what they're going to do. And you see this in Los Angeles, you're seeing in California where they've passed a law. Now that's not going to stand up, but they've passed a law just to show their defiance to making sure that it's only American citizens in the United States of America and working and have jobs. And in Portland, it's even worse there every night. I do not know why we have not shut that down. I hope with this new addressing of Antifa as a domestic terrorist organization. And boy, do they hate that. They hate that because they know what's coming for them. And you're going to see media people exposed, you're going to see government officials exposed, deep state exposed, and particularly the billionaires, the source type billionaires trying to destroy our country, all exposed in this. So 2 million, the government's estimate is 2 million have gone home. Now, my estimate of what Biden did. Remember all the lies you heard about Biden from Biden? Same type of lies they did on shutting everybody's voice down. How did we punch back? You know, YouTube yesterday may not. Oh, yeah, we're going to let Bobby Kennedy and Ban and all these guys back in. Hey, screw you. We built this show that one of the biggest and most powerful shows in media regarding politics and change in economics and capital markets. And we did it without the big platforms. Why? The audience are force multipliers. They share the clips. The folks at RAV have done a great job. Why have we been a voice for sanity and virtually everything we've said, in fact, I would say everything we've said, but I'd be stealing the President's line. So virtually everything we've said has come to pass and now we're in it. This is the crunch point. This is where, you know, you're going up the octave or the law of three, or you know what Hegel's the thesis, the antithesis, the synthesis. This is when people quit. Think about your own personal life. You start out on so many initiatives in your own life and it goes good at first. I'm motivated, I've got it. And then you hit some resistance, personal resistance, environment, you know, social resistance in the environment of what you're trying to accomplish. I don't care if you're trying to build a business, if you're Trying to start a not profit. If you're just trying to do something for your own personal, a benefit for yourself. If you're getting involved in community activity or in politics. We're have Steve Stern on a little while talk about the precinct strategy. Now a couple of weekly calls set up because understand, talk to so many people in the precinct strategy all the time. I hear the same thing all the time. Even at the most microscopic level, not the Democrats, the establishment Republicans are the ones fighting you every day and making it so miserable. And you ask, hey, am I, we're really making change or can I continue to do this? I've given up so much of my personal time. This is where we are right now in the Trump administration. I told you this was going to happen. And there's a way you're winning, right? But it's just not going to happen. Those people, particularly some of the lower information voters and people just not that into politics, are still Trump supporters and maybe even some of your friends. Well, hey, you know, we got so many wins, you know, we can't stand it. Well, look, we do have a lot of wins, but a lot of, some of these and some of the most important are quite tenuous. This is why I keep saying maximization, maximize, seize the institutions. We have to make this revolution permanent. And in doing that, we have to destroy the deep state and the administrative state. This is why during Charlie's, you know, his student action summit back in, in, in July, I gave a different kind of a different speech to the young people there about action. What I thought was the most important and that was taking on and finishing this fight against the administrative and deep state. Now I happen to think that that, look, what we've accomplished is unbelievable, but we have to make it irreversible so they just can't come in. Look at those demons. I played as much, by the way. I still got more Hillary Clinton. I knew there's no better way to get this audience jacked up and just fighting mad over your morning coffee than play Hillary's voice, right? She's not gone by a long shot if you don't think she's thinking around. And hey, hey, how do I slip into this 20, 28 deal, right? You don't know Hillary. She's psychotic. All they think about is power. When they're out of power, they have nothing to do. Bill and Hillary gonna look at each other and hey, honey, wanna go see a movie? Wanna go have a romantic dinner? Wanna go have a romantic dinner, honey? Is that what Bill and Hillary Talk about. No, no, they're twisted. Twisted about power. That was one of the things that was most amazing about Trump winning. The American people weighed and measured them and said, you know what, there are some risks to this Trump guy. He's never really been in these kind of offices. You know, I've known him from TV or from real estate or from the media. I love what I hear about making America great again. But man, the Clintons have been doing this since forever. They've been doing. And Hillary's been preparing this since she was 6 years old. And they voted for Trump. The common sense of the American people voted for Trump. And what are the lies? She couldn't accept it. Oh, it's a Russia, Russia, Russia. Bald face lie. Bald face lie from twisted, perverted people whose only purpose in life is power. That's what you're fighting. And if you want to take this country back and make it permanent, make it permanent. We still have such a long way to go in the fight. We cannot flinch. We have to be steadfast. Short break. Turn the mode.

What's gone wrong? What do Democrats need to do moving.

[Military Veteran/Analyst]

Forward to set, set things straight?

[Luke]

Look, I think that there are a lot of reasons, but, you know, it probably boils down to candidates on the Democratic side either stop talking in ways that were going to be understood and appreciated and agreed with by certain constituencies, stop being effective communicators in modern communications. You know, the Republican Party, I have to say, has done a much better job dominating social media, dominating the podcast ecosystem, getting messages out and aiming particularly at young men. And this was one of the insights that, you know, Steve Bannon had that, you know, young men who were into gaming, young men who were on the Internet a lot, you know, they could be recruited, they could be persuaded to be political supporters of the Republican Party if the Republican Party actually engaged and talk to them in the right way. And I think Democrats missed a lot of opportunities on that. You know, there seems to be a concerted effort to try to catch up and repair that. But if you don't communicate with people online, you know, the people who are watching us are people already interested in politics. They're curious about our takes on things. They want to see who your guests are. But that's, you know, kind of a small portion of the electorate right now. Most people get their news from social media.

[Steve Bannon]

I fear that we will not have an election in 2028.

I really mean that in the core.

Of my soul, unless we wake up.

To the code Red, what's happening in.

This country and we wake up soberly to how serious this moment. Okay, See the support there? Code Red not going to have election. My girlfriend Hillary saying sweet things. She's right. We understood that. Look, Hillary, it's not about. Let me explain this. It's not about reaching out and using social media in 15 and 16 with people like Cernovich and others, the Pepes. And yes, I knew that from the gaming world that there were all these disaffected young people, young men out there. But why? Why are they out there? It was your governance. Because you and bill became this 90s became when globalization exploded. Why a minority President Bill Clinton. Remember, Bill Clinton only got 43% the first time. I think he only got 46% the second time. He was never, never had the majority of the country vote for him. But they immediately, with Bob Rubin, embraced globalization to the nth degree. Now, this is right after the Bushes. Bush one had saved the Chinese Communist Party from being overthrown by Lao Beijing at Tiananmen Square in 1989. Please, if you take away anything of the show is that we essentially abandon the two greatest allies we had in World War II. After the war, in the last stages of the war and then up to 1949, the Russian people, not the Bolsheviks, the Russian people and the Chinese people. Lao Beijing. We turned over. We armed Stalin to the teeth and allowed him to take the captive nations of Eastern Europe in Berlin. All those footage you see of the fall of Berlin in the Second World War, the greatest human catastrophe in mankind's history, and we allowed the Russians to put the red flag up there. That was allowed by us. That was allowed by General Marshall and FDR and Harry Hopkins, Alger Hiss, all the KGB agents, all the Communists, all the fellow travelers in the Democratic administration. Yes. Then later, 1949, they turned it over to a group of bandits who did not lift a finger in World War II. The Chinese Communist Party. Then 50 years later, 50 years later, guess what? Those very people had a belly full of it. Tiananmen Square in June of 1989 and the fall of the Berlin Wall in November of 1989. Gosh, wow. That's the first time everybody's tied together. Why is that? Because the globalists know exactly. The sympathizers with the Marxists and the Communists know exactly what happened. That's why they never tie it together. They want you to be fool. They want you to be fools. And Hillary Clinton and all the, you know, let's stop thinking about tomorrow, whatever it is. You know, the song they played and they're all clapping down there in Little Rock and all happy. And then they turned and sold the country out. Chinese generals coming in. They're renting the Lincoln Bedroom. Hey, and don't think the Republicans are much better. The Bush business Republicans, kind of. Okay, fine. We'll make China this. Make China and ship all the jobs. Why are the young men disaffected? It ain't because they're playing video games. They're playing video games, got nothing else going on in their life. They don't have a decent job. The education system's against them. They're looked at. They're made as villains. The same young men from the same families that. Oh, wow, the greatest generation. You fetishize the greatest generation as they should be honored, but you dishonor their grandchildren and their great grandchildren, their young men, the same.

[Stephen K. Band]

I told this in the speech in.

[Steve Bannon]

Front of the Jewish community down in Dallas. I gave this speech with Rabbi, with the rabbis down there. I said, hey, the same people that. It's the same grandsons of the same type of young men that are Americans that were in the 8th Air Force, 8th Air Corps over Germany. And I think we have 40,000. We've never recovered. Why are they in the video games? Why were they disaffected? You, once again, you still miss the point. The point is not that we could go in and get them. They're disaffected. Further, still disaffected. They're still disaffected. Maybe more so because you see the freak show, you see the freak show that's coming out that potentially killed Charlie Kirk, or at least the front of that. I don't know. I don't believe this guy's the killer right now. But, hey, if the evidence comes out, good. But we can't have a second grassy. No, you got to look at everything. Why are they disaffected? Because they're treated as the enemy. Helen. Loudoun county in Virginia. You still got what? They're still persecuting, prosecuting two young Christian boys in high school because they got, you know, they still got the transgender bathroom. Are you going to go in a bathroom? Every day of their life, they are made to be the problem. They're not the problem. They're the solution. So, no, Hillary, it's not about getting the Pepes in social media. It's why they're disaffected and to give them hope. And when we're sitting here even thinking about, oh, we have to give hope to our young men, how off the rails are we? If you look at this school, look at the poison. You want to see the poison? You want to see the poison? Just look in New York City. You want to see the poison? And the poison's taking power after the election. The poison's taking power after the election. We are on the cusp of losing this country, and this is with Trump with us the second time and hammering every day and having the House and the Senate and the Supreme Court. And you know why? It's like, I refer back to the untouchables. Who's got the will to take the ax and beat down the door and go through the door. You're not going to be popular. You're going to be called divisive. You're going to be called angry. You can be called all of this. Well, hey, only the divisive and the angry and the focused and the determined are going to sit there and say, we're going to save this country. No, we're not going to get patted on the head and then have. Jimmy Kimmel normally has 260,000 viewers per night. That show cost a Fortune to produce. 260,000. That was his average viewer. How pathetic is that? On a major network, 260,000 they had. I don't know, 11 million last night or some huge amount. Of course he's going to get that because they're all back praising him. He's so great. He's blubbering there. Act like a man if you're going to. Come on, be a man. How about that? Start, start with this. Own it. Own what you did. Own what you said. Own it. Don't be blubbering and then whiny. You're gonna whine for a while. Gonna blubber, then you're gonna whine. Poor pitiful me, aren't I great? And I didn't then bald face lie. Well, I didn't mean. I really didn't say anything. You're no, you, you tried to. You thought you're going to be a narrative shift and say, oh, this guy's maga when you knew it was a bald face lie. You people are revolting. And we've allowed you to take charge of the greatest country in the world. And now we're taking it back and you don't like it. Well, you ain't seen nothing yet because this is the top of the first inning. The top of the first inning. And anybody's there for accommodation. Anybody. There's for code at unity. With that, there's nothing to unify around. They want to destroy our young men. Don't ask me, ask our young men. Hear it from them. Why is marriage later? Why are family formations later? Why are we approaching a demographic crisis? Why? Why? Why? Because all the economic opportunity is taken from them. And then Howard Lutnick, that blow hard is up there. That is the. He should be fired. That is the worst performance out of a Secretary of Commerce.

[Stephen K. Band]

This is his job.

[Steve Bannon]

He puts out nothing but phony information in the Oval Office right next to the President. He's either feeding the President that phony information or he's just lying. And here's the scam. We have Reed Hastings and all these guys now saying we really like what we're doing in the hundred thousand. That's because Amazon and Hastings at Netflix, all these guys are hiring. This is all they think just going to take care of the body shops. Right? We need to stop. You want to get young men away from the video games? You want to get them away from the video games? Get them out of the basement. Hey, we got jobs for them. There's 12 million STEM qualified folks in our country don't have jobs. I got plenty of jobs for them. It's in Silicon Valley. Send the foreigners home today. Take those kids in college, the foreign students. No they don't get into the opt crowd, they don't get into the HB1 Vs. They go home and help to make their countries great again. And American citizens, Hispanic, black, white, Asian, Muslim, but as long as you're an American citizen, they get the jobs. You want to get them out, right? You want to have earlier family formations, you want to have earlier marriages, you want to start to see the sunlit uplands, then stop crushing the greatest asset we've ever had, the next generation in this country. And now we've had this conversation. Hillary, you did it. It's your embrace of globalization and you turn against the white working class that had put you in office in Arkansas and you reached out and tried to save you when President Obama ran as a anti war populist. You're so phony and hypocritical and you sit there, yeah, we have to start discussing this stuff. Look at your policies that destroyed this country. Look in the mirror. As hard as it might be, I understand that. Look in the mirror. You in the Democrat political class and the business community and the Rhino Republicans, you, you, you have destroyed this nation. And Donald Trump, as imperfect as he is, has saved it full fricking stop. Let's take a shortcut. Commercial break Taj Gil on the other side.

[Interviewer]

Salaam alaikum, Sayyid Reis. Aham Ahmad and Shah Nassaidi. As you know, Mr. President, I spent over 37 years in the U.S. army. And I was a soldier, not a diplomat. So I hope you'll forgive me if I speak with the directness of the old soldier that I am. As I get the first question out of the way because the fact is that we were on different sides. When I was commanding the surge in Iraq, you were of course detained by US forces for some five years, including again when I was the four star there. And here you are now as the President of Syria, which your forces liberated from the murderous Bashar Al Assad regime to participate in your first UN General assembly as the president of your country. Earlier this year, you met the President of the United States, among many other world leaders. Please help us understand how you got from Al Qaeda in Iraq 20 years ago to where you are today. Syria's head of state on stage in New York City.

[Syrian President]

Welcome you at a time we were in combat and then we now move to the discourse. We moved from more to discourse. Yes, sir. Someone who went through war is one who knows most important, has its rules. When it comes down to traditions and rule and traditions and the customs of that phase, when we want to subject it, when we want to judge it, we have to judge it based on these phase. We cannot judge the past based on the rules of today and cannot judge today based on the rules of the past today. Now we have a new phase that's special. The region. There was an occupation of Iraq. There has been a lot of conflicts in the area in Palestine. Syria was facing a lot of challenges and was threatened. The phase at that time and the awareness all these factors were contributing to the choices of that phase, what's important, the intent was clear. When it comes down to protecting and defending people and defending human rights, women, the children from other injustice that was taking place in the region. Perhaps there were some mistakes. Sometimes in a person's journey, there are some mistakes. But what's important is to focus on defending people from the threats that they face, especially from the instability that could take place in any region. Our commitment to that line is what brought us here today to the place we're in, sitting here among allies and friends.

[Interviewer]

So this next one is about you personally. How are you holding up under all this pressure? Are you getting time to do some thinking? Are you getting enough sleep at night? Again, I've been there and it is so very, very hard. And your many fans, and I am one of them, we do have worries.

[Steve Bannon]

Taj. There you have a murderous Al Qaeda terrorist, Islamist Sharia, supremacist. Right, let's go back to the young men, what we asked, and these were volunteers. This is the thing that, that they want to glaze over, that the kids that are doing what we want, the system wants you to do is go to class, you know, not go out drinking every night. Go to those tough engineering classes, go those tough computer science classes. Get the stem, get qualified. Then you don't get a job. You play. You do what you're told to do from the time you're a little kid, and then there's nothing for you because we're gonna give it to a foreigner because we can pay them one third of what we pay you as an American citizen. Oh. In addition, we're gonna take away the draft. So all the deadbeats, all the deadbeats and these, all these mama's boys, right, you know where they are like that, like the, like the guys out there in St. George, Utah, that are part of the furry crowd so they don't have to step up and defend their country. We just have volunteers. We get, we get the tage gills of the world and the Mo Bannons of. Right, you get you. And then we fill up section 60 over in Arlington on a couple of wars of choice and trying to turn these guys into Democrats. And then you got portray us. You got Petraeus sitting there glazing. Are you getting enough? Why don't you just put, you know, have him come over and hug him and give him a bottle. What kind of signal is that to send to the dead, Our honored dead? We had you detained. You know, you noticed when he said we have you detained. He didn't say why we had him in prison and should have executed him in prison. Taj Gil, how revolting is that to you, sir?

[Military Veteran/Analyst]

It's, it's disgusting, Steve. You know, I lost so many friends and so many teammates chasing these, these Al Qaeda guys down back in the day in Iraq and Afghanistan and then later on in, in Syria. And you know, this guy, he had a 10 million dollar bounty on his head in 2017. Who knows how many heads he's chopped off of Christians and everybody. It's, it's crazy. And it all goes to show it. Everything is about money and power in this world we live in. You know, I've seen over the years, you know, I used to work as a contractor at the agency. I've seen over the years many times saying that the reason we had the Arab Spring and the reason we needed to topple Assad in Syria is one the pipelines. It's the quickest way to get Oil out of the Gulf to the west to Europe is pipelines. And they all have to run through Syria into Turkey. Some of them go through Iraq, some of them go through Iran, but it's natural gas and oil. And then the other thing is Israel needs access, like full access to Syrian airspace so they can transit through Syrian airspace to get into the Gulf, Iran particularly. So, so we basically, we've taken this guy who's a mass murderer who chops people's heads off and, and, you know, he wanted to create this caliphate in Syria and take over the entire world. And now we put him on a pedestal. And he's meeting with our former CIA director, you know, world leaders. There's a picture of the Italian prime minister sitting with him. It's absolutely insane.

[Steve Bannon]

Hang on one second. We're gonna go to break. I'm gonna keep change. They gave him a standing ovation at the end when Patrice said, are you getting enough sleep? You know, you're fans of which I'm one. We're worried about you. When the UN's giving you a standing ovation, you're on the wrong side of history. Portray us and working for KKR now. What a disgusting lump of humanity you are, sir. Revolting. Unbelievable. Short commercial break. Taj Gill is gonna stick around to join us on yield side.
