Steve Bannon
This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people. Reasons I got a free shot on 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.
Jack Posobiec
War ROOM here's your host, Stephen K. Ban.
Steve Bannon
Okay, Friday the 3rd of October, year of our Lord 2025 the one year anniversary of Tina Peters going to prison. She's a political prisoner in in Colorado and the Colorado governor. I'm probably the most radical governor in the country. Apollos whose buddies whose wingman to Cox in Utah. Remember they're going around with this new kind of Chinese credit score. CCP credit score. What it's dignified debate or something. It's another way that the progressive left unable to win at the ballot box and unable to basically have real political power are now escalating into extreme violence and covered by and covered by folks like Cox and Polis are saying no, we just have to have a more calm debates. And all this other stuff is hate speech. Remember Utah which blows me away. According to Sheila Matthews in the team over at Abel child has the biggest mental health crisis like among their kids. It's just a fricking mess. Nobody knows it better than Jack Posobec. Jack, you've been helping out the team at Charlie Kirk's and the Charlie Kirk show and everybody, can you give us an update on just where we stand with everything the investigation? I've getting a lot of feedback from local law enforcement around the country saying they're not excited about the Utah investigation. Although not a lot has come out. But just your sense of things. I know they did this. They did an event the other night. They had Andy Biggs and others there. I think Tyler did that one. They're going around the country. What's your sense of things, of where we stand in all this?
Jack Posobiec
Well Steve, that's exactly right. And I'll just say that investigation and other investigations are ongoing. I have a lot of questions just like a lot of people have a lot of questions. There's stuff that I know that I can't get ahead of because of the legal process. There's stuff that has not yet been released yet because it will be released at court. Court. And really that's, that's pretty much all I can say about that. I'm sure, as you and other people can understand, you know, our hands are tied when it comes to certain pieces of information that are, are going to be withheld for at least right now because they will be presented at trial and that they're being protected for that purpose while the investigation, and I should say investigations are ongoing. And that's, that's really all I can say about it. As far as Turning Point usa, look, this is full steam ahead. We're at flank speed right now, Steve, which I know you're familiar with. And you look at some of these events you just mentioned, the one at Utah State, that was the largest single campus event that Turning Point has ever had in its history. Over 6,000 people, I believe 6,200 was the number that local law enforcement gave us. We did have a bomb scare where a hoax bomb device was placed at Old Main on campus. But that was later determined to be a hoax. But people were trying to, these, these lefty groups were trying very hard to shut down the organization, shut down the event. Nobody left, nobody fled. No one allowed themselves to be terrorized. And yes, returning to Utah. And by the way, the rest of the Charlie's tour will continue and we're going to have a series of guest speakers, all star speakers, perhaps even some nationwide elected officials will be taking part in this tour because we are not backing down. We are actually going bigger. So we're not backing down. We're doubling down. And you're seeing the thousands and thousands of people flock out because of that. This is for Charlie. This is what Charlie wanted. And we're going to continue to do that, not only on campus, but even, by the way, in New Jersey where the governor's race right there is a jump ball just one month away from the election.
Steve Bannon
No New Jersey Charlie would be all over that with the ground game at Turning Point. It's so great. The spirit of Charlie, which would always be all ahead flank, a subsidiary of all this is clearly, you heard President Trump when he came out the memorial service. No more games. He came back from Charlie's memorial service, signed that first step in designating Antifa a terrorist organization, and then had the bigger, as they thought it through, the bigger event about a week later. And now it's full force in Portland, Oregon last night. Correct me if I'm Wrong. Nick Sortor, who's very close to the turning point, guys on Charlie, is out there covering it as our own Ben Berkwam is. Did Nick Sorter get arrested last night, sir, by Portland police?
Jack Posobiec
Yes, Steve, that's right. So I spoke to Nick early this morning. Nick Sortor was arrested. He did spend the night in jail. He's out now. He's okay. But he has been charged with disorderly conduct. There are multiple videos of, not just taken by Nick, but also of Nick not only being arrested, but in the moments leading up to his arrest. And during this point there is a scuffle where Nick himself was attacked by a group of antifa, a group of the black bloc. Nick was pushed, he was knocked over. He got up, he defended himself. And when he defended himself, police rushed in and arrested him even as they saw a mob of people attacking him. And he was put in handcuffs. He was behind the back, he was hauled away. He asked the police what he's being charged with in the car. They, they wouldn't even tell him what he was being charged with. And it was only afterwards, upon his release that he was giving his charge of disorderly conduct while he again was just trying to film and document as a journalist. And Nick Sortor has been to so many places. East Palestine of course being the first one that really put him on the map breaking that story that he's gone everywhere and has never once engaged in anything other than hard hitting journalism. And yet in the city of Portland, that is where he was arrested. And Steve, you know, this is the typical of the anarcho tyranny that we've talked about. They will not arrest the criminal for attacking you, but they will arrest you for defending yourself.
Steve Bannon
Where do you, I mean this says everything you need about that. But given the footage we've seen and the way they back off and they have the chief dialogue officer with the blue hair and everything like that, and they have the governor and mayor lying every day. I mean, and now you have a situation where, and let me just make sure I understand that of everything that happened last night and the local neighbors, particularly a lot of minorities around there that have to go to, they have to go to work every day, have to get up early, they got those kind of jobs, can't get to sleep at night.
Jack Posobiec
It's like jazz.
Steve Bannon
Am I right to understand, am I right to understand that Nick was the only person arrested? When he goes to jail, Nick Sorter's in there and none of the antifa people causing this are arrested.
Jack Posobiec
I Actually asked him about that, Steve. I said, well, what was it like when you're in that, in that prison cell? Did they throw you in with drug dealers? Did they throw you in with other antifa? Were you isolated? What was the situation? And he said, well, look, I was in the regular holding cell, but nobody else was there because he was the only person that the police had arrested, I guess, in that precinct. And, and so he spent the night completely by himself. Because all of the other assaults, all the other violence, which is clearly documented on video, some by Nick, a lot of it by Nick himself, not a single one of those people were arrested, as well as my colleague Katie Davis Court, who was assaulted, had a flagpole, nearly took her eye out the other night from Post Millennial. And she runs to the police and says, that's the person that, that just swung a flagpole at me and nearly took my eye out. And the police allow that person to walk away.
Steve Bannon
Unbelievable. We had Caputo on. There's a great article in Axios about the consolidation of power under President Trump in this, this leverageable moment. I gotta ask you, the, the, the. They go up to Capitol Hill. It's now been leaked. They went to Capitol Hill. President Trump set a team up there to basically tamp down, which was some pushback they're getting from the war on the cartels and particularly the amphibious readiness Group they've got off Venezuela, of which they said, look, let me be blunt. These are non state actors and we're at war. And when we say we're at war, we're not just legally and we're not just using legal methods for the law and we're not using financial methods. We're going to go kinetic on these guys. This is a pretty big escalation, is it not? As you see, by the way, the Secretary of War going to Memphis saying we're going to basically support law enforcement there to shut down all this crime. You see in Portland, you have 200 National Guard now out on the streets every night. They're actually talking about to try to get ahead of the War Powers act on Capitol Hill. What's your perspective on this, Jack?
Jack Posobiec
Well, Steve, it's very clear. President Trump and the administration as well as of course, our Secretary of War are doing. Everybody gave that great speech the other day, by the way, the best speech the military has heard since General Patton. This is a time where we're putting the defense of the homeland first. And this is the hemispheric defense that we've championed here on War Room. That I've talked about on human events daily that we talk about everywhere. This idea that we need to get back to the idea that America as a sea power needs to protect our waterways first before we reach out and talk about the waterways of the world. So before we go to the Straits of Malacca, before we go to Babel, Mandev, Strait of Hormuz, all the rest of it, Taiwan Strait, we've got to make sure the Gulf of America, the Caribbean, the Panama Canal and then all the way up to where Greenland and the GI UK Gap, that all of this are secured, because these are the direct areas that protect our homeland. And one of the key facilitators, by the way, of the new opium war that's been waged right now on us. So look, I'm here, Steve. I'm here in Phoenix, Arizona. I've been here for three weeks. I've been here since Charlie was killed. Went home for one weekend, came right back when went, went to visit the family. And you see the drugs, you see the drugs all over Phoenix. I could, I could walk outside the hotel right now and point out Fentanyl. Fentanyl. Fentanyl. There you go. There you go. And it's all over the place. It's absolute madness here in Arizona. New Mexico is even worse. The closer you get to the border, it's worse. And where is it all coming from? It's all coming from south border, from cartels and Mexico and Venezuela. That's why it's time for a whole of government approach. And this is Keen. You heard that from Hegseth, the Secretary of War. You're hearing it from Miller as well. It is a whole of government approach, legal drug enforcement and military, to stop the fentanyl war that is being waged on Americans.
Steve Bannon
Jack, if you can hang on, because I want to get into Sunday and what you're invited to do, what we're going to cover here, Real American voice. I just want to bring up and get your thoughts on this. So just moments ago the President said, and he's going to be, you know, it's kind of 10am in the morning till 5 in the afternoon for this amazing naval exercise and celebration commemoration of the 250th anniversary of the United States Navy. The President has just announced at 6pm he's given a deadline to Hamas. No games, no questions. You're either in on the deal as it's written. We're not negotiating. You either take the deal. That the Arab nations and the Gulf Emirates and the Muslim nations have come together around that I've gotten. Netanyahu, who didn't want to agree to it, has agreed to it. You're either in or out. And at 6pm, one minute after 6pm all hell's going to break loose. Now the president states, Jennifer Jacobs over at CBS News reporting, quote, I am asking that all innocent Palestinians immediately leave this area of potentially great future death for safer parts of Gaza. Jack, we got about a minute and a half here. We're going to hold you through. Break your thoughts on this.
Jack Posobiec
Well, Steve, look, I, I think the leverage that Steve Witkoff put on the Qataris, the way working through them, is intermediaries. I know it's been controversial. I've certainly made comments about the Qataris many times in the past. But you need to be able to do that to get this leverage on Hamas as well as on the Hamas leaders, by the way, who are not in Gaza. They are in Qatar. So putting the leverage on Qatar, putting the leverage on the Hamas leaders, that is going to be absolutely key here. And President Trump, look, he means what he says. He absolutely means what he says. He's offering you the olive branch. Right? It's right there. But the hammer is also in his other hand.
Steve Bannon
Jack, can you hang on for one second? I'll hold you through. Sunday is going to be a major event and Jack POS is in the middle of all of it as a, as a former naval intelligence officer. Birch Gold. Gold's right now right around 3900. I think it's a couple bucks under. It's not the daily price. It's the process, the pattern recognition of how it gets here. Why is gold a hedge against times of financial turbulence? One of the reasons we have financial turbulence, we have geopolitical turbulence from Ukraine to the Middle east to South America, the Caribbean, internal to the United States. Birchgold.com promo code Bannon the end of the dollar empire. Why did we start working on that four years ago and publishing it four years ago? Because we knew the pressure that was going to come on the prime reserve currency that would be the United States dollar. Learn all about it. Teach yourself. Go there today. Virtual.com promo code Bannon and talk to Philip and Patrick and the team about owning physical gold. Short break so big on the other side. According to the Department of Energy, blackouts could increase by 10,000% over the next few years. It's because of massive energy demand from artificial intelligence data centers. We talk about that all the time here in the war room. And we have a fragile power grid. It just cannot Keep up with that demand. I don't know about you, but I don't like the idea of being without power even for a day. That's why I got the grid Dr. 3300 from my patriot supply. It's a powerful solar generator that runs refrigerators, AC units, medical devices, power tools, anything you need to write out a blackout. And right now, for their Christmas in July event, they're including over $1,000 in free survival gear with your generator, including emergency food supply, water filtration, survival tools and more. You heard that, right. Over a thousand bucks in free gear for a limited time.

As America celebrates 250 years of Navy power, brace yourself for missile launches, roaring jets, thunderous firepower and the full force of America's sea strength on display. Hosted by Steve Bannon with live reporting from Jack Posobic. Only real America's Voice brings you this front row seat to Freedom in Motion. It's not just coverage. It's a celebration of America's might. RAV presents America 250 Sea Power and Freedom coverage begins this Sunday, 10am Eastern. See you there.
Steve Bannon
So, Jack, walk us through Sunday. It's going to be a major evolution, as we say in the Navy. Walk us through what's going to happen.
Jack Posobiec
Steve. It's going to be an incredible evolution. So we're going to have the entire carrier strike group. Of course, we'll have air patrol, we'll have, we'll be linked with C2 on the shore. Now, this is, this is going to be over. This is the Atlantic Test Range where this is going to be taking place. So don't worry if you're out there in, out there in Virginia beach, if you're, if you're out there boating or sailing or if you're, you know, happening, flying through the flight area, obviously there's going to be closures. Planes will have to be rerouted through this. This is the Atlantic Test Range where this is going to take place. And President Trump is heading down to Norfolk and he is going to be participating in this live fire exercise to celebrate the 250th birthday of the greatest Navy in the history of planet Earth, the United States Navy and the most powerful Navy on the planet. President Trump will be there and not just, by the way, giving a major address, but he's also going to be flying to the deck of, I believe it's going to be the USS Truman Aircraft carrier to observe this incredible live fire sea power exercise. And I have been asked by the White House to attend, to participate and embed with the delegation and be out there to provide coverage. We're going to be doing that all here through Real America's Voice. And I also want to force thank you, Parker and Rob and all the team for really being able to facilitate this and making it all happen.
Steve Bannon
Jack, it's a great honor for you to be selected to do this. It's just incredible. The president and I think the president came to the right conclusion when we had the Army 250, which we covered live on Real America's Voice. Jack was there, the family you got. I think we can all agree the Navy probably doesn't march as well as the Army. So the best way to celebrate.
Jack Posobiec
A little bit that day. Steve, they got dinged on the marching a little bit.
Steve Bannon
I, I didn't want to say that. Mo give me grief, but it did make that observation later. Oh, wait a minute, wait a minute.
Jack Posobiec
Hold on, hold on. I was there with Mo. Mo turns to me and she says, you know, you know, that marching looks a little, a little, a little, a little out of step there, a little out of cadence.
Steve Bannon
I, hopefully now she's up at West Point on the board. She'll take care of that. That's the number one priority. Straighten them out. This, the reason this is so important is that as Jack just said so eloquently, is that we're having a shift now to what we call hemispheric defense it doesn't mean America's not going to be engaged throughout the world. World. In fact, what we want is kind of a rollback of the American Empire and more of an expeditionary force like President Trump unleashed to end the 12 day war. But the Navy's a central part of that and obviously there's gotta be a major shipbuilding part of this. And that's why I think it's very important for folks to actually start to understand. And this is what we're gonna do all day. All day on the show. We're gonna be talking about naval history. We're gonna talk about the evolution of the United States Navy, the great victories the Navy has brought, particularly in the, in the Pacific in World War II. We're gonna walk through, you know, we're gonna have tons of experts on and particularly during the couple hours of the live fire demonstration. But Jack, now in particular, look, President Trump sent guys up to Capitol Hill, team up to Capitol Hill the other day to kind of get ahead of the War Powers act situation by telling them, say, hey, look, these are non state actors, these drug cartels, but they're as powerful as many state actors and we're going to eradicate them. Not just using the law and legal and locking guys up, not just using border patrols, just not using the financial aspect of it. We're actually going to go kinetic on these guys. And going kinetic, you've got an amphibious readiness group of 4,000 fleet marines and sailors off the coast of Venezuela right now. So this couldn't be any more topical, sir.
Jack Posobiec
That's exactly right. And I certainly hope that the cartels trend and any other cartel or state, or even state actor takes notice of the work of the United States Navy when they're out there, Virginia Capes, in that op area performing and showing for the entire world the sea power of the ability of the United States Navy to put warheads on foreheads, to conduct VBSS searches and in some VBSS raids and searches and in cases where it's necessary to take out these boats, these semi submersibles that have been used by cartels, I mean, Steve, these are, these are very sophisticated forces. They're very advanced. They're. I mean, even though they are non state in name, they clearly receive and have elements. And you've seen the great work that's been put out by the, by the ODNI showing how they are facilitated by state actors as well. The same way that we saw ISIS and others facilitated by state actors and in the Middle East. So the ties are there, the technology is there. I'm particularly interested, by the way, Steve, to see whether or not we get a demonstration of drones, of air drones and by the way unmanned Underwater drones or UUVs, unmanned underwater vehicles, whether or not we get a demonstration of their capabilities as well and perhaps some new surprises that the Navy has in store for us. Hope they hope they go a little bit better than the, than the railgun littoral combat ship, some of those Biden Obama era projects. We can, we can just go ahead and leave those, leave those at the pier for now and, and we'll focus on our core competencies when we get out there. And I think it's great. By the way, this will be the very first exercise live fire at Virginia Capes op area since the great dressing down by Pete Hegseth of all the GOFOs, the General Officer flag officers at the Pentagon there, bringing them up and saying guys, it's time to get squared away. It's time for all you guys to be Joe Joe Navy and GI Joe and the Army. And we are done with the failed lack of standards of the Obama Biden era military. We are going back to one standard in the United States Navy. There should be one standard for the sailor. It should not matter where you come from, what your background is. We don't look at that stuff. What we look at is are you up to standard, are you a squared away sailor? And if you are a squared away sailor with 10, 10 toes down on that toe line, then you are qualified to serve in the United States Navy. But if you are not, it does not matter what your background is or di or any of these other things, then you got to either you look, you either make the cut or you don't.
Steve Bannon
Get with the program. I think that talk was get with the program. Jack Bosovic, Social media, you're kind of the Associated Press of, of the right wing. Where do people go, sir?
Jack Posobiec
Will be up at Jack Posobic will be there all day today that I'll be winging it back still in Phoenix right now. I'll be winging it back to D.C. and then Sunday down Nova Virginia and off the coast of Virginia, Virginia Capes there, the Atlantic test range with President Trump.
Steve Bannon
We're going to do 10:00am to 5:00pm 5:00pm minnow, 10:00am to 5:00pm be with Eastern Daylight Time. Jack Bosobik, you're a patriot and a hero, sir. Thank you. Can't wait to have Poso there on Sunday. Trevor Comstock, we've had and by the Way we're going to have Naomi Wolf, this whole thing, Maha with Pfizer. We got to get to the whole bottom of this because it was going in one direction, then I think all of a sudden, whoa, is it going in another direction? We'll break that down, brother. Sacred human health. You guys have been on fire. Talk to me about it.
Trevor Comstock
Hey, Steve, good to see you. So, yeah, today we still get a good amount of questions about our new TAL moisturizer and it's still selling super fast. We actually sold out late last week, so I thought I'd just touch on it for anyone that doesn't know. But just a quick little background. It's just made with two ingredients, which is the 100American grass fed and finished beef tallow. And then we pair it with the raw manuka honey from New Zealand. So there's no preservatives, no food dyes, no seed oil, synthetic junk or anything like that, which is pretty amazing. And tallow is great because it's almost identical to the natural oils that your skin produces and it absorbs much more easily as opposed to just, you know, sitting on top of your skin, which is usually the case with a lot of other moisturizers on the market, unfortunately. And then what's great about it is it's loaded with vitamins like vitamin A, D, E, K, and those are all essential nutrients that your skin needs to stay healthy and radiant. And then of course, as I mentioned, we paired it with the raw manuka honey, which is a naturally occurring antibacterial, anti inflammatory and healing remedy. So the towel is pretty amazing because not only does it help your skin stay hydrated, but it'll also do things like help reduce redness if you have some eczema. It works great in that scenario as well. And usually just overall, it does a great job at moisturizing your skin without clogging your pores. And again, if you want to compare it to other moisturizers on the market, those can be effective in their own right. But again, they're usually contained, you know, alcohols, fragrances and other synthetic fillers that can unfortunately damage your skin barrier over time. So again, we just eliminated all that and just give you the raw natural ingredients. And it is intended for both men and women. Yep.
Steve Bannon
Where do people go right now on the website to see the reviews to learn more about everything else we've got, including the grass fed beef liver that gives me jacked up. Where'd they go?

Unidentified Conservative Commentator
A top advisor to President Trump says ICE agents will be at next year's super bowl in California after music superstore superstar Bad Bunny was announced to be the halftime show performer. I mean, it is really jarring and disturbing to see, and I'm going to continue to be jarred by this and not become a Nord to it. But it is jarring and disturbing to see somebody from Department of Homeland Security reveling in the policy that has been in place. It is their policy. I have to respect that. But the coarseness and the cruelty of reveling in a policy, to hear these people from Homeland Security saying, we will come and find you. We will track you down, we will run you down. And relishing the concept of plucking migrants off the street and throwing them into cars and loving that and just enjoying talking about it and enjoying engaging in the threats of it all. That is not what I think where Americans want to be. I hope that bears out at the polls and in the voting booths, but it is hard to watch. I don't know anybody who would support enjoying that act. Whether it's the policy or not is really, really sad and cruel and painful for these people.
Steve Bannon
Morning. Mika right there having a fit. Of course, she doesn't talk about the American citizens that are preyed upon by this entire situation. And I don't know anyone in Homeland Security. I know Amon, Cory and the whole team over there that relishes this or celebrates it. It's a job, job that has to be done. Now joined by Danica Patrick, one of America's greatest athletes. Danica, you very specifically, after, I guess, Bad Bunny was announced, went up on social media and had some pretty direct comments on your thoughts on this situation. Can you share that with this audience?
Danica Patrick
Sure. Well, the super bowl is the most highly watched show that we have on television the whole year. There's 127 million people are estimated to watch it. And so it's like it's the crown jewel on television and sports in particular. So it's where we come together as a country. We enjoy it. We have parties. We love watching the halftime performance, and we love to sing along that halftime performance. And it's usually one of those that's very versatile across so many different age ranges and people watching. And so I think that I don't have any problem with someone performing at halftime that is not from the United States, although Bad Bunny is technically a citizen because he was born in Puerto Rico, wasn't necessarily born in Americ. I don't care where you're actually born. What I care is that I can sing along to the music and his music is almost nothing in English. So I just, I don't think it will be as much fun. I don't think it will be as uniting. And what I would hate to see is, I would hate to see that it would divide us again in yet another way where 127 million people normally come together to watch it. And that there would perhaps be, you know, counter shows that would be out there to say, look, if you don't want to watch a halftime performance and watch Bad Bunny, come watch this. And it's probably going to be tempting even for me because, you know, I, I, I like to watch a great performance and I like to sing along.
Steve Bannon
What. When you come out with something like this, you know, you're putting yourself in the middle of cultural wars, right? And MAGA is a, it's constantly a war of progressive left. As an athlete, I mean, you started driving reviewing your history. You started driving when you were a very small girl. You weren't really engaged in politics at all until recently, right? Or even had seemed like much awareness about politics or much interest in it. Did you?
Danica Patrick
That's completely right. You know, as a race car driver and as someone that's an athlete and someone that represented a lot of companies, I spoke about this with the Jimmy Kimmel situation. You know, so long as you're paid by someone else and your career is up to someone else, you kind of got to follow the rules. And for me, there was always, there was never a direct ask, but an unspoken rule that you really don't talk about politics and religion. Those are just the things you just stay away from. And I was totally fine with that agreement. And, you know, maybe that was what drove my lack of interest or curiosity. But I would say that obviously now in my post career and retirement and, you know, being able to sort of choose my, choose my adventure politics, it brought me in last year and really, if we're going to bring another obvious, obvious name that has been in the news so much in such tragic ways, Charlie Kirk is the one who did it. I went to Amfest in 2023, first ever political event. And thereafter I went and did Tucker show in Florida. And then Charlie reached out to me after I came back and said, hey, I didn't want to bother you, but I know you came to the event and I'd love to have you on the show. And, and that sort of started my political adventure and journey.
Steve Bannon
What was it about Amfest or what was it about the message of Charlie Kirk or Gordon Tucker? What was it that led to your awakening. What kind of specific ideas struck you?
Danica Patrick
I don't know if it necessarily was new ideas that struck me as much as it was such a fun gathering. Turning Point has turned rallies and these events into really fun, fun, you know, shows with pyrotechnics and, you know, lights and all kinds of beautiful things, and great, great videos to prepare every. Get every speaker that came on, and then, of course, having great speakers. So. So I think that. I think it was just a. It was just a super fun event. It's. It's definitely a lot of my belief system growing up in the Midwest and racing and nascar, but I would. I guess I would truly describe myself as someone that probably lives a little bit more liberally. Like I go to Burning Man. I. You know, I think that people generally should be able to kind of live their lives the way they want. But, you know, I've always believed that the country should be run in a more conservative fashion and definitely by a businessman. And so I can't think of a better man than Donald Trump.
Steve Bannon
Well, what. So it's one thing to go to Turning Point and do Tucker, and it's another thing to actually get out in a heated campaign when it's all on the line, which you did, and actually campaign for President Trump. So what was it that had that neck? You're leveling up all the time. What. What caused that leveling up to actually go and be one of the. I would say one of the most. I can say this because I was watching it from a federal prison. You got a lot of attention on the campaign trail. Among the. Among the. No, among the guys. They were very focused. You. Very focused. Because most of them are. Are huge sports fans and huge Danica Patrick fans. What was it that got you. What was it that got you on the campaign?
Danica Patrick
Well, thank you. I do know that a lot. I think my fan base is about 75% male still. So no matter how many biohacking adventures I put out there and fashionista moments at Formula One races, I still have 75% male fans. But honestly, it was Tulsi Gabbard again. Back at Amfest in 2023. I saw her speak, and I looked at her social media and saw that she Fox. And so I sent her a direct message, and she just, you know, our friendship began there. Then she had a book come out called For Love of Country. So I interviewed her for my podcast, and then she started inviting me on things. She invited me to moderate for her and RFK on the Reclaim America tour. So I went and did that in Vegas and then many other things came after that. I did some stuff moderated for JD Vance in North Carolina. I went to a bunch of rallies, bunch of Trump rallies. But then she asked me to come along for the whole last week of the campaign, which was just something I couldn't turn down. And I was so happy to do. And that's, that's how I was able to fly on Trump Force One, sit next to him on that last flight back from Michigan.
Steve Bannon
I gotta tell you, you did a fantastic job. Where do people go on your social media, how they find out more about you?
Danica Patrick
Ma', am, just my name, Danica Patrick at X or Instagram, you can find it there. I run those accounts and share more of my feelings than I ever used to, as you pointed out, Steve, that's for sure.
Steve Bannon
Very powerful, particularly given your commitment to your sport and to be one of the greatest athletes we've had over the last couple decades. Very, very impressive. Thank you, man. Appreciate having you on here in the war Room.
Danica Patrick
Thank you.
Steve Bannon
Thank you, Danica Patrick. That takes courage because every time she steps out and talks about maga, talks about President Trump, talks about Make America Health again, they're after like our next guest, I think we got the great MTG joins us. So, Congressman, I got a question that's bothering me. The President of these United States comes back from Charlie Kirk. He's been working on this for a while. He got tapped along by Bill Barr and these guys in the summer of 2020, says, I'm not having this anymore. He sits down with the team. He gets a preliminary thing of designating ANTIFA as a terrorist organization. Then he comes back a couple days later with like a 25 page detailed analysis of why they're a terrorist organization. And all the affiliate groups like Armed Queers of Salt Lake City, all these affiliates. He's now focused and he's not going to be taken off message. I'm going to do this. He gets the Secretary of War back here, they're in Memphis, he got troops in Portland. And you've got a bill out there, ma', am, for Congress to do their job, the House to do their job. My question is, do you have 215 co sponsors from the Republican Party on your bill to actually designate ANTIFA as a terrorist organization, ma'? Am?
Marjorie Taylor Greene
No, I don't, Steve. That would require Republicans to actually grow a backbone and stop being cowards. I've had this bill in place for years and for some reason the Republicans in Congress, we haven't Even brought it to the floor for a vote. This is the easiest vote that Republicans can take. It's the right vote to take. And just as you mentioned, Antifa is not new. We've been watching them since the beginning of President Trump's last administration. We saw the same organizers and the same characters all the way back under Obama and Occupy Wall Street. This has been an organized effort that is anarchy. It's communist, and it's completely designed to attack our government and tear it down. They are domestic terrorists. I have a bill that we could easily pass in Congress if they would just bring it to the floor for a vote. And this is where the problems are, Steve. It's in the House and in the Senate. And this is why the people have to keep demanding that their elected leaders, the people they elect to the House and the Senate, continue to do their jobs and work for them.
Steve Bannon
See, we had. We started the show with Marc Caputo Axios, and we're going to end the show with Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia. Axios has got this really brilliant piece about how Trump's consolidating power in the executive. Right. And doing all these things. But I keep telling people, unless we codify his executive orders into law, it goes away. When President Trump goes away, I mean, he can have all this stuff, but to make it irreversible, you have to codify it into law. What is the House? I'm going to hold you through the break, but what does the House not get about not just this, but everything he's trying to do? If we don't codify it, it's up to the next president who decides whether it exists or not.
Marjorie Taylor Greene
That's right, Steve, you and I are completely on the same page. The strategy in place right now, where the executive branch is really taking all the power away from Congress and doing all the task and actions through OMB and through executive orders is literally making President Trump a temporary president with temporary policies. And I'm enraged about it. I have been barking about this in our conference and also with White House staff for months now, because this is not why I ran for Congress. It's the House and the Senate that has to pass legislation and Republican appropriation bills in order to make President Trump's policies permanent and make them law. And while I love the cuts Russ is making, Congress should also be making those cuts, and we should be doing it through appropriations and legislation, legislation, executive orders that we voted for. They should be passed and passed into law.
Steve Bannon
Mtg hanger for one second. Short break. Congressman Marjorie Taylor Greene on the other side. What if he had the brightest mind in the war room delivering critical financial research every month? Steve Bannon here. War Room listeners know Jim Rickards. I love this guy. He's our wise man. A former CIA, Pentagon and White House advisor with an unmatched grasp of geopolitics and capital markets, Jim predicted Trump's Electoral College victory exactly 312 to 226, down to the actual number itself. Now he's issuing a dire warning about April 11, a moment that could define Trump's presidency and your financial future. His latest book, MoneyGPT, exposes how AI is setting the stage for financial chaos. Bank runs at lightning speeds, algorithm driven crashes, and even threats to national security. Right now, War Room members get a free copy of MoneyGPT when they sign up for Strategic Intelligence. This is Jim's flagship financial newsletter, Strategic Intelligence. I read it.

Jack Posobiec
Here's your host, Stephen K. Band.
Steve Bannon
It's just not antifa. So, Congressman Green, we got about two or three minutes. I want to go back and restate the case to make the Trump revolution permanent at some point in time. Remember, I play that clip all the time from the movie Lincoln. Abraham Lincoln is sitting there with his cabinet, his war cabinet, and they're banging heads. Why is he banging heads? The Emancipation Proclamation was just an executive order. Lincoln knew when he was out of office it could be reversed. He says. He says, I don't need a law. I need an amendment to the Constitution.
Mike Lindell
Right?
Steve Bannon
That's what he was going all the way in. But this is the same thing as President Trump. As much greatness as we're doing in this leverage moment, and you got to do it now and deconstruct it, but you have to then make it permanent. Why is people on the Hill not understand this? Ma'. Am. This revolution will only be permanent after we codify it through the House of Representatives. Ma'. Am.
Marjorie Taylor Greene
Well, listen, Steve, I'll go a step further. It's almost like there's an effort to undermine the American people and to stop Trump's policies from being permanent. And that's what has me absolutely enraged. Here's the problem. This whole let's let Russ vote at omb, and I love Russ and I agree with him on many things, but let's let him take over Congress and do everything. I mean, it's literally like he's doing Congress's job is going to make Trump not only temporary, it's going to make him a speed bump in history and the American people. I fought too hard to get that man into office and it infuriates me. And I've literally told him on the phone, this is what is happening to you. And this is where the problem lies. Congress has to do its job. It's constitutional job and duty, and that is to create legislation to enact these policies, these great policies. Otherwise all is going to be lost. And Steve, I'm going to ask you a really important question. What do we have that's permanent? And I need people to seriously make this list because I don't think the list is long enough. Okay, we got a tax law in place. That's great. We put an energy policy plan in place. That is important. But let me ask you, what else is permanent. Have we made Antifa a domestic terrorist organization? No. Have we made it a felony to transition children changing their gender? No. That's my bill. No, we haven't done that. Have we done all of these things? There's so many things that the American people are adamant about and have we done them? Have we made them a law? The answer is no. So I want you, the people at home watching this, I want you to ask yourself, where is the return on your investment, your donated dollars, your door knocking, your relentless campaign, your emails, showing up at events, showing up at rallies, showing up and supporting your congressman and your senator? Where is the return on your investment? And I'm going to tell you, you have very little. And that is where it pisses me off. And that's where it's wrong. And the problem lies in the House and the Senate. And here's something else, Steve. You need to start educating your viewers about the nuclear option in the Senate. They do not have to have 60 votes soon. And the Republican senators, there's 53 of them, can use the nuclear option, override the 60 vote rule and pass legislation with a simple majority. And let me tell you why they fight to not do it. They say, oh, we've got to have bipartisanship and we've got to work with Democrats. Bullshit. That day is over. That day is completely over. There is no bipartisanship. There is no working with Democrats. This country is so far divided between Republican and Democrat policies. It's time that Republicans learn how to wield power and learn how to use power and put that power into play for exactly what the people voted for. And Steve, we can't talk about it long enough. This is an extremely important issue.
Steve Bannon
MTG people want to learn more about how to make permanent the Trump revolution. Where do they go on your social media?
Marjorie Taylor Greene
Yeah, I've got two. You can go to my congressional page. Rep. Mtg, you can also go. That's my personal page right there at mt Green has two e's on the end. And you know I ran for Congress, Steve, because I was mad at Republicans in congress for not supporting the president. And I'm back to being really ticked off again. This is. We've got to get things into action and we've got to make laws.
Steve Bannon
Matter. Now you're a, you're, you're a ball of fire, I'll tell you. Thank you so much for making time, changing your schedule, joining us today, very important.
Marjorie Taylor Greene
Thank you for having me.
Steve Bannon
We started with Caputo and Axios walking through about the consolidation of power and MTG is absolutely correct. As great as Russell in this leverage movement to actually do it, to make it irreversible. That's what I wanted to finish with. Mtg. You have to codify it. We have to codify this Charlie Kirk show is going to follow us, Andrew. Today they're going to have a bunch of special guests. We got poso after that Steve Gruber.

We have two ages, our actual age and our body's internal biological age. Additionally, what I didn't know is I've likely lowered my biological age without even knowing it. Here's the thing. Because Americans eat so many processed and ultra processed foods and not enough fruits and vegetables, many, perhaps most, are 10 years older on the inside than their actual age. They're ticking time bombs. A major university study suggests how to slow aging and diffuse that biological time bomb. Participants slowed their aging by drinking Field of Greens. That's all. They didn't change their eating, drinking or exercise, just Field of Greens. I feel great knowing field of Greens can slow how quickly I'm aging and I encourage you to join me.

Host: Steve Bannon
Key Guests: Jack Posobiec, Danica Patrick, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Trevor Comstock
On the third day of the government shutdown, Steve Bannon and his guests break down the latest on the evolving political landscape, law enforcement action at major events, and the ongoing battle for institutional and legislative change under the Trump administration. Discussions span the ground-level effects in states like Utah and Oregon, the designation of Antifa as a terrorist group, security at the upcoming Super Bowl, the significance of the U.S. Navy’s 250th anniversary, and how true policy permanence demands legislative action.
“Another way that the progressive left unable to win at the ballot box…are now escalating into extreme violence and covered by folks like Cox and Polis.” – Steve Bannon (00:51)
The episode is combative, urgent, and defiantly conservative, with Bannon and guests urging persistent direct action against perceived enemies and inertia within their own ranks. The language is direct, unapologetic, and at times, deliberately provocative, reflecting the show’s framing of existential struggle.
This episode exemplifies Bannon’s War Room as a rallying point for hard-line conservative activism—pressing for legislative permanence, glorifying military might and direct law enforcement intervention, and casting political, media, and cultural contestations as existential battles for American identity and survival.
For listeners who missed the broadcast, the above breakdown provides insight into the episode's central topics, rhetorical highlights, and major takeaways.
