Episode 4832: MAGA Under Siege; Trump Pushing Back Against Globalism ...
Loading summary
A
Does seem like President Trump is uniquely situated to really pressure Prime Minister Netanyahu to get this done, to abandon this war. One White House state I was talking about this yesterday, even used the word bully. Trump has had to bully Netanyahu to get here and we appear to be on the brink. So give us your sense here. Do you think that Trump will follow through, see this to the end to.
B
Make sure it happens? And will Netanyahu listen?
C
Yeah, look, you have to give President Trump credit for doing something that none of his predecessors, including himself, have actually done, which is facing down Netanyahu. Joe Biden tried to and then sort of swerved at the last minute. Barack Obama, ditto. Netanyahu tends to have got the better of American presidents. And this is really the first time that an American president has faced him down and has not, you know, has not accepted Netanyahu's reasons for foot dragging, delaying and not pressing ahead. And so you've got to give credit on this to President Trump. Of course, this is very early days. I really like Yelda's characterization of both Israel, namely Netanyahu and Hamas saying yes, but. And Trump only hearing the yes. He's got to continue only hearing the yes and overriding Netanyahu's objections which are going to escalate if this, as we all hope, if this peace process unfolds, Netanyahu is going to find more and more tripwires and Trump has got to continue to face him down. But I have, you know, it's a rare thing, but I am giving Trump credit for something like this.
B
Confrontation over troops in cities is only getting more intense.
C
Where is it headed?
D
Yes, I does feel like we're in an escalatory moment. Obviously. Rather than being a one off tool that Trump has used in response to a particular set of protests, he now sees this as a template for the whole country. He's rolling it out in Democratic run city after Democratic run city. Just last week he told the military he thought maybe it should be a training ground for the US Military in our cities. Internally, you referenced Judge Immers decision over the weekend and I, I thought it really was a remarkable decision. For those of you who haven't read it, you know, she, she took on Trump's false claims, the false pretext of some kind of an insurrection or he, he called it actually in ordering up the troops he said that Portland was a warlike hellscape. And in her decision she debunks this completely false claim. And she makes the point that, you know, we're a nation of constitutional law and not martial law. And I just, I think it's really remarkable, both because it's false claims underlying what Trump is trying to do, but also the wide range of the confrontations he's picked all around the country. Right now, you know, he's opening up a multi front war on what he and his advisers have called the enemy within. And I think part of the disbelief is that we're watching this unfold with our eyes, but we still can't quite believe that what's happening is what's happening. I was imagining this afternoon try to cover Governor JB Pritzker's press conference as if it was not your present day self stuff, but your 1999 self, you know. And what would you say on the news? It would be almost unthinkable to, to say the Governor of Illinois has accused the President, United States of an authoritarian takeover of Chicago because he's lying about an insurrection that isn't happening and using that to deploy military troops from around the country. It's, it's an amazing moment in American.
B
History that we're watching solicitation of these.
E
Telephone records, which I think emphasizes the political weaponization that was behind all this effort. And we were still getting more information, but we've released some records today and I'll let Senator Johnson take over from here and then each one of you colleagues can join in when you want to, whatever you want to say. First of all, I want to thank Senator Grassley. It is because of his relentless advocacy for whistleblowers that a lot of this information is surfacing right now. We wouldn't know about the list of 100 Republican entities that were targeted by Jack Smith's Arctic Frost investigation. I don't think we know about this as well. So we need whistleblowers. I think Dan Bongino and folks in the FBI. They don't know where all the records are hidden. They still don't. They're not necessarily getting 100% cooperation. But this is outrageous what has happened. I just want to give you a timeline of this. I think you've already got the up your eye sheet that shows the number of members of Congress that were targeted. Representative Kelly, Senators Graham Haggerty, Holly Sullivan, Tuberville, myself, Senator Lummis and Blackburn. This memo was dated September of 2023. To put it all into context, the Mar a Lago raid occurred in August of 2022. Jack Smith announced the indictments against President Trump in August of 2023. So this is almost two months later. They're casting this net, this fishing expedition against members of the Senate in the House. I've been investigating this with Senator Grassley. This doesn't surprise me, but it should shock every American of what the Biden administration has done. By the way, this is the first time I was targeted by the FBI under the Obama administration. The same thing happened to both Senator Grassley and I as part of the Foreign Foreign Influence Task Force. We were giving a briefing to try and convince us that the Hunter Biden laptop was no big deal. Basically trying to throw us off the track. So this is major corruption that's being revealed inside the Obama and Biden Department of Justice, the FBI and I'll turn it over to Senator Hagerty who's one of the individuals. Again, none of us were subject or targets of this investigation. There's no predicate, there's no reason for this other than a fishing expedition which again should outrage and shock every American.
A
He's not doing anything. You're saying that.
B
This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people. Christians, I 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 son 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.
A
Country, this country will be saved.
B
War room here's your host, Stephen K. Banner. It's Tuesday the 7th of October in the year of our Lord 2025. A little later in the show, it's the second anniversary of the horrific Muslim Brotherhood attack on Israel. State of Israel and the people of Israel, citizens of Israel that I think we were the only people to cover it live. It was a Saturday two years ago. Folks that watched the show back then over the years remember that Jack brought Jack Besobic in and we did a live. We're gonna play, I think we're pulling play some clips from that. A red letter day. Ed Luce, the lead columnist for the Financial Times of London and one of President Trump's relentless critics on everything on Morning Joe this morning walked through and said nobody but President Trump could do what's happening right now in peace in the Middle East. He said it was extraordinary and actually bending Netanyahu to his will to secure peace. The rest are pretty extraordinary about this insurrection that's taking place in the United States and President Trump's efforts to quell it in that cold open. I want to thank my team in the war on, the production team and also the RAV folks in Denver. It's just extraordinary, the buried lead there. When we talk about Arctic Frost right now, there's a Judiciary Committee oversight with the Attorney General of the United States, Pam Bondi. We will be going to that live and also pulling some highlights from it. But you just had a US senator. This was yesterday, Grassley's committee, remember, Grassley's 90 some years old, he's not a lawyer. Total bulldog. You had Senator Johnson, they had the press conference so they could ask whistleblowers in the FBI to start turning over documents to Dan Bongino. Not simply about the senators. We're going to have a number of senators, Senator Tuberville, Senator Banks, Senator Hawley on here later to talk about this outrage, but actually ask about the Mar A Lago raid. Our first guest this morning is Eric Trump. Extraordinary new book, Under Siege, My Family's War to Save America. Eric, when you see that, you see a US Senator asking for. We're going to get into the book, but one of the central inciting incidents in the book is the Mar A Lago raid. When you have in 2025, October 2025, a United States senator at the microphone asking that we need whistleblowers to come through because Dan Bongino and Cash don't have all the documents because they're being hidden by people at the FBI and particularly not just about the senators, but also about, about the Mar A Lago raid. How does that strike you, sir?
A
Got the call when the FBI raided Mar A Lago, obviously, you know, I run the Trump Organization. I run all our properties. And a member of my team in Mar A Lago called me up and, you know, sir, there's, there's 30 agents at the front gate of Mar A Lago. Excuse me, there's 30 FBI agents at the front gate of Mar A Lago. Okay, why are they there? Well, they have a search warrant, sir. And I go, search warrant for what? I'm totally confused. I mean, no one saw this coming. And I go, has anybody told my father about this? And everybody was silent. And so I called my father up and I'll never forget, and he goes, yeah, meet me up in my office. And that's when we wrote the famous tweet that he sent out. You know, the FBI is raiding my home. I talk all about it in Under Siege. And. And that's just another one of the thousand cases of lawfare. Does it surprise me whatsoever that Jack Smith was spying on senators? Not at all. I mean, this is the same guy, Steve, that was planting classified folders in my father's office on the floor to take pictures that he was otherwise, then leaking out to the media. And then they had to admit the fact that they were literally planting evidence at Mar A Lago. They did everything they could to try and imprison my father. They tried to take him down in every way, shape or form. That is this, Steve, that's under siege, right? That's the world we lived. It's not just the first impeachment. It's not just the second impeachment. It's not just the dirty dossiers. It's not just the Russia hoax, which I was in the center of when the FBI was calling me saying, I hear we have secret servers in the basement of Trump Tower that are communicating directly with the Kremlin. It's just not, you know, X Twitter at the time and Instagram and Facebook deplatforming us and the gag orders and every DA and every aggressive around the country coming after him. Whether it's Fanny Willis or, I mean, Alvin Bragg or the judgments against the company or the debanking of all of us, or the pulling my father off of the ballot in Maine, in Colorado. You know, this doesn't surprise me at all. I became the most subpoenaed person in American history at 112 subpoenas, and I've never gotten a traffic ticket. Steve, you know, this is the war. Jack Smith is a criminal. In my opinion, what he did is unthinkable. I mean, the way he tried to weaponize. Weaponize law enforcement, weaponize his. I mean, you know, the way the DOJ was weaponized, the way the FBI was weaponized. And let's not forget one thing, Steve. Do you remember when they raided Mar A Lago? I said, why are they here? And they told me it was because of nara. Right. National record, obviously. You know, like, does anybody think that a public library, a glorified public library was, you know, making the calls to, you know, invade Mar A Lago, a former president's home? It was all nonsense. But they wanted to put our family under siege. They wanted to destroy my father. They wanted to destroy us. They wanted to bankrupt us. So this doesn't surprise me that Jack Smith is, you know, tracking the communication of senators. It's actually the least surprising thing I've heard all day because they're criminals and honestly, so many of them should be in jail for exactly what they did.
B
Well, if we, if we get on top of and this part of the oversight on the what's going on right now of Pam Bondi, the Attorney General of the United States, she's testifying under oath in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee. There's going to be some fireworks there as the Democrats come after her heart. We're gonna take a short commercial break. We have Eric Trump an extraordinary new book, under Siege. I've been waiting for this one for a long time because nobody has any earthly idea of the whole of government, and I would actually say bigger than the whole of government, almost whole of society, because they brought the business community in the attempt, not just simply in the first term, but more importantly after they stole the 2020 election to destroy the Trump family, destroy it. And they never, ever, ever, ever envision that President Trump would come back and be the 47th president. Short commercial break Eric Trump, the book is under siege. You can pre order it right now on Amazon. Short break Let me be blunt. Gold is up around 40% this year. That's not speculation. That is reality. And if a portion of your savings isn't diversified into gold, you're missing the boat. Here's the facts. Inflation is still too high. The US Dollar is still too weak. The government debt is insurmountable. This is why central banks are flocking to gold. They're the ones driving prices up to record highs. But it's not too late to buy gold from Birch Gold Group and get in the door now. Birch Gold will help you convert an existing IRA or 401k into a tax sheltered IRA.

F
Much?
G
Not really.
F
And nor does it interrupt. No, I know I slept four hours last night.
G
And you feel fine.
F
Okay, that's I've this is my fourth cup of coffee.
G
Four hours is nuts. Four hours is Trump.
F
Love Four hours? Yeah. And the night before was like six. Before that was like seven. So it varies. But is that what he sleeps, like, four hours?
G
He, like, does not sleep.
F
Yeah. I did Fox and Friends finance segment, and it was just on Gen Z's and finance. And one of the executive producers, like, we just want to show you around. And they showed me the control room, and I said, how have things been in the control room as of late? She's like, none of us are sleeping because the President doesn't sleep. We're all working two times right now. Do you feel that?
G
You know, I was just talking to someone about this because we wrote this story on what traveling with him is like.
F
Yeah.
G
In the first term, because I had this source who said, you never want to be on Air Force One on a trip. And I said, why? Like, you think you want to be in the axis of power close to Trump? He doesn't sleep on these trips. And, like, you know, you're going to Asia or something, and that's kind of the only time you're going to sleep before you go on this trip.
F
Yeah.
G
But Trump is just always up and talking and he'll, like, have them go wake staff up if they're asleep because he wants to talk to them. And so we have this big trip to Asia coming up, and, you know, you're just, you're not going to sleep on that flight.
B
Ed Loose of the Financial Times and Kaitlan Collins of cnn, both very complimentary on President Trump today. Eric Trump, before I get back into the book, give me a minute or two on that about the man that raised you, informed you as the man you are today. It's 24, seven, all the seven days a week, 365, is it not, sir?
A
Oh, and that's been my entire life, by the way. I have the same genetic deficiency or whatever you want to call it, but I don't sleep at all either. So it clearly runs in the Trump genes and it runs deep. And it's so funny. I remember in 2016, you'll remember this as well. Will Trump have the fortitude to be able to do it? Will he have the energy that it takes to be Commander in chief? And I'm literally sitting there as a son. He'll call me Steve. He'll call me at 5:00 in the morning. He'll call me 11:30 at night. And he does it all the time. The guy never. I mean, he's the Energizer Bunny in a red tie, in a suit, you know, on Steroids, like that's, that's Donald Trump. That's how I've always. And by the way, I'd see these like 22 year old kids that work for CNN. You know, my father would be on his fifth rally of the day in 2017, right at one of these things and he's freewheeling all of them. No teleprompters. You know, they're making up these stories. Will he have the energy to be commander in chief? And I'd go over, they'd be sleeping in a corner and there'd be like four Red Bulls, empty Red Bulls around them. I'd literally go up, take a picture of them. It's like, don't you dare ever write that story again. Like, the guy's amazing, he's amazing.
B
I wanted this book. And folks, I realize that you're the tip of the spear in the Trump movement and not just love the president, but support him and support him in the darkest days of 21, 22 and 23, when the election was stolen and everybody abandoned him except for a handful of close advisors, his family, and particularly the Warren posse. But Eric, that's what I want to go into. Nobody knows the story and the way you've put it together, it's just not a whole of government approach to destroy a family and destroy a man. And you can tell they want to destroy this movement. It's really almost a whole society. They get the business community in the bank. I mean, you're de banked, you're de platformed. It's. Nothing's ever happened like this. And you put it together, it's kind of a page turner, almost reads like a novel. Well, just walk us through those darkest days of 21 and 22. After the election was stolen and your father knew it was stolen, he returns to Mar a Lago. Tell me, tell me the pressure the family came under. Sir.
A
Steve, I go through it in great detail. I put my heart and soul into this. And by the way, it's going to ruffle feathers. This book's going to ruffle feathers. And guys go out, support the cause, go buy a copy. But there were dark days. You know, I was the first one on that escalator to come down. I was the first one to stand on that stage and I never left him. And you know, I mean, the reason I became the pinata is my father had certain constitutional protections in Washington D.C. that I did not have as a citizen. And I ran absolutely everything that Donald Trump had ever built. I mean, he came to me when I was 33 years old. And he goes, eric, I want you to run. I want you to run the empire. Obviously, I'm doing the political thing, right? I want you to run the empire. I know it's in good hands. You've built so many of our buildings. You manage all our teams. You know, I want. And I never thought. I thought I'd be building hotels. I thought I'd be running golf courses. Instead, I was keeping the deep state off of our family, our entire family. You know, in a certain strange way, I almost became kind of the patriarch outside of Washington, D.C. to all of us, to the entire family. And I never left that stage. 2020 was a punch in the gut. Now, Steve, in retrospect, it was the best thing that ever happened to us, right? And that now we have the House, we have the Senate, we have a 6:3 majority on the Supreme Court. We've got a Cabinet. He's got a Cabinet. That's killing it. Right? And by the way, the media is eviscerated in this country, as you just saw From Kaitlan Collins 2 seconds ago in that interview. Like, the media no longer has a voice in this country. Independent people like you have the voice in this country. No longer the media. They've totally been kind of neutered and disassembled. But I can't tell you how dark those days were. I never forget coming out of the courthouse and I sat next to my father every single day in every one of those trials. I would not leave his side. I just. I could not leave his side. And in the New York case, they read off 34 felony convictions, which we've totally overturned since then. And he turned around, he shook my hand. We walked out of that courtroom, you know, incredibly proud. We got in the car, and he goes, honey, I don't know how. I don't know how, but we're gonna win this whole thing. And he was talking about the presidency. He was talking about all the cases, all the felony convictions. And I said, dad, it's either gonna be the White House or it's gonna be prison. And you better believe it's gonna be for both of us. They're not leaving me alone after this. You better believe it's the White House, or we're in jail for doing absolutely nothing wrong. That's how. That's how dark the times were. They were turning off every bank on us. They were weaponizing every DA again. I became the most subpoenaed person in American history at 112 subpoenas. I don't have a laptop from hell. Steve, you know me extremely well over what last, you know, 15 years, no laptop from hell. Never touched a drug in my life. Honest. Guy runs a great business, Wakes up at five o' clock in the morning every single day. Loves my kid. Believes in God, believes in country, believes in our Constitution, believes in our American flag. You know, I'm a far cry from Hunter Biden. I'm the antithesis of Hunter Biden. And yet they did everything they could to destroy us, you know, hence under siege. And the name of the book was written before Butler, Pennsylvania, where I saw my father's head almost get taken off, you know, while I had a five year old and a seven year old sitting on my lap. It was before they tried to kill my father again at the golf course in Florida. You know, it was before they killed. This book came out three days before they shot our good friend Charlie in the neck. That's what they've tried to do. They've tried to destroy you, They've tried to destroy me. They've imprisoned you. They've come after you relentlessly. They've done the same thing with me. They've done the same thing with every single one of your viewers. Why? Because they believe in a guy who wants to make our country great. They believe in a guy who wants to restore family values in this nation. They believe in a guy that does not want crime on the streets in Chicago. And because of that, they weaponize every law enforcement agency. Because of that, they spy on our campaign. Because of that, they raid Mar A Lago. You know, because of that, they go through Melania's closets, right? And they try and take out their kids and they try and divorce relationships and they try and imprison employees. That's who these people are. And the greatest vindication of all is the fact that we beat these guys. And not only did we beat them, we beat them in the popular. We vote. We want every single swing state, every state in the country tacked to the right. We won Miami Dade by 11 points. A county that hasn't been won in 37 years in this nation. We won it by 11 points. Every demographic, whether it's African American, whether it's Hispanic, whether it's a youth vote, whether it's, you know, I mean, you go across. We won every single one of them. It was the greatest beatdown in modern political history. And this siege that they put us on, they did not win. They did not break us, they did not break our family. And we're Stronger now as a family, as people, and as movement than ever before.
B
Tell me when you read this book, it's overwhelming because they have the power of the state, they have the power of the media, they have the power of the financial community. Why was it that the Trump family did not break?
A
You know, maybe we're like masochistic in a certain way. Maybe like we enjoy pain and torture. You know, I'm not sure I've gotten that question a bunch of times. Maybe it's our genetics and maybe it's because we didn't have another choice other than to fight. Because if we didn't fight, we were dead. If I didn't fight, we were dead. Steve. We didn't have a damn choice. At the same time, we actually, we're the one family that does not need politics. You look at Barack Obama, he was a community organizer who now lives in Martha's Vineyard and one of the nicest houses in the island. The last thing that Donald Trump needed was to go to the White House. Believe me, Trump Force One is beautiful. You've been on it a hundred times, right? I mean, Mar A Lago, I'd say, is the best anywhere in the world. You've been there a hundred. We're the one family that needed politics like a hole in the head, you know, at the same time, we were the one people that both had the voice and the pocketbook. I mean, Steve, I probably spent on behalf of the company $400 million defending us from a relentless attacks and the lawfare, right? Secret servers in the basement of Trump Tower, communicating with the Kremlin. We didn't have secret servers. I mean, first of all, we're a cloud based company. Second of all, you don't put servers in basements because basements flood. I told the FBI this day one, come on, come down to the basement of Trump Tower, see if we have any secret servers. There was not yet. They let that lie perpetuate for a three year period of time so one greedy person at first could get a couple extra votes. That was Hillary Clinton, right? And then when she was beaten so bad by a bunch of people, including myself, that didn't know what a damn delegate was, didn't know what the Iowa caucuses were, because that was never the world that we were in. It allowed her to save a little face saying that there was some foreign actor who otherwise intervened, which is the only reason she lost. It was a sham and the entire world knows it was a sham. And there's been no consequences. There's no consequences. When she deleted 33,000 emails. There's no consequences when, I mean, these are the biggest criminals in the world. Back to Jack Smith. He was planting classified folders on my father's office at Mar a Lago. They took his medical records, they took his legal documents protected by attorney client privilege. They took everything. They broke every single law in their attempt to try and destroy the man's life. And they lost. And they lost in an embarrassing fashion. And I could not be more proud. So Steve Undersea is just, I mean, it's all of that, plus all the behind the scenes stories that no one knows, plus the emotion that went into it on behalf of a family who was pretty much at certain times fighting alone. I mean, I'm not talking about, obviously you were in that fight and there was others, but there were some days, I can tell you, in 2021, where our phones stopped ringing. And my father always talked about that in the late 80s when he had the financial problems, the phone stopped ringing. We saw that as a family and now we see the best of times, you know, and we've never been better and stronger and better.

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, 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.

Sign up for free and be part of the movement. Eric Trump is what you call a safe pair of hands. A very dedicated young man to his work, his family, his father. When you see him worked up like that, that shows you how deep this cuts. That's where you got to get the book. I've waited for this book for a long time. People do not have an understanding of how the apparatus was turned on President Trump. And what does that tell us about the country? This is why. This is why I gave this When Charlie Kirk's last event that he managed, the Turning Point, the Student Action Summit in July, I told Charlie I'm going to do something a little different this time. Normally I come out and I'm throwing the mic down. We're at war to get people fired up. I talked about going after the deep state. How do you dismantle it? The book Under Siege, and it goes back to the beginning. It tells you everything they've tried to do to destroy this individual. Would they do that to a Romney or a Youngkin or Desantis or Nikki Haley? No, they're not going to do it. Because they're all part of the system. Trump's not. He's a disruptor, but he's also. And this is why I say, for all his flaws and his flaws, overcoming his flaws and being the third of the three great presidents we've had, I mean, great General Washington, President Lincoln, and now Trump, in overcoming those flaws and in delivering like he's delivering, you have to understand how much they hated how much, not just the globalists, but the system that is embedded in this country and far different than the revolutionary generation or the founders intended. This is why on the show, on the afternoon of the 20th of January, 2021, when we left Boris at Andrews Air Force Base on the tarmac, remember that President Trump, Air Force One, takes off for his last trip back to Mar a Lago. And we said, they're playing with the Frank Sinatra song My Way. And we said, we'll be back at 5:00 and this guy's president and there's an illegitimate regime that's taken over. And we said, from that very moment in the logic of American history.
A
He.
B
Will come back, win the nomination and win the White House, and then set things right. In Under Siege, you get an insider's account. This is what the magnificence of the book is. And Eric. And look how. I mean, Eric was on the trigger right there. Why you can see the outpouring of emotion because there were so many days that were so dark. And this is why. A hat tip to my good friend and colleague Boris Epstein, of what he was able to pull together on the legal team. Remember the family. You'll see it in the book. So Under Siege. Here's what I need you to do with this book. I need you to buy the book. I need you to read the book. I need you to think about the book. I want you to think about the book and place it in the arc of American history and think for a second, why are they trying to destroy this guy? Why are they trying to destroy this family? Why are they. It's like the Romans at Carthage. They just don't want to defeat Trump. They want to destroy Trump. They want to destroy the Trump family. Anything associated with Trump. Anybody associated with Trump, whether it's Navarro and his book about going to prison or Bannon. Right? Or anybody. Anybody around him, anybody associated with him, particularly people in those dark days of 21 and 22. And always remember, the reason a lot of this story is not as well known as it is is that for two, three years, he was virtually banned from Fox Think about that for a second. Murdoch sent a memo out to his senior executives in January of 2021 that said, we're going to make Trump a non person. We're going to make Trump a non person, and we're going to get in back of DeSantis and Nikki Haley and all these traditional neocon, neoliberal, neocon Republicans who are part of the problem. The reason we are where we are today. Madeline Peltz has a. She's got a new substack called, I might add, like my number two pencil or number two pencil. And she talks about a conversation we had earlier in the week of which, you know, I talked to Madeleine about the Insurrection act and what President Trump's doing in cities like Portland, in cities like Chicago, and what will happen in Memphis, in Los Angeles. And she writes, they don't think they're actually part of the United States because they're not part of the United States right now. They're sanctuary cities run by these, overseen by these radical governors, Pritzker and Newsom, and radical mayors. And that's why President Trump is, for the sake of the country, in defense of the country, and for the. And for the mass deportations, having to do this. Nobody else would do that. Do you think anybody else think about this for a second? Do you think anybody else could essentially, like Ed Lew said, do what President Trump's doing with Netanyahu, finally treat Israel as it should be and for its own defense, must be a protectorate of the United States of America? Not an ally. They're not an ally. It's a protectorate. It's now being treated like a protectorate. What did they say the other day? President Trump ordered Netanyahu. Who else but Donald Trump could do that? Could Marco do that? Marco was sent over when Netanyahu sent the missiles to Qatar. President Trump, as angry as he's ever gotten, sent Marco over there. What's Marco doing? The first thing he's doing is going, is he and Huckabee go in the Wailing Wall. He's not over there to read Netanyahu. The riot act is not going to do it. He's a neocon. He's a neocon. He's not going to do that. Only Trump. What's happening in Egypt right now in this peace negotiation, only Trump could do that. What's happening in trying to stop the war in Ukraine, Only Trump could do that. In doing. He sealed the border in 60 days. You were told for years and years and years, there's nothing to do in 10 million to 12 million to 15 million people invaded the country. Think of the scale of that. Who else but Trump could stop it? That's why they tried to destroy him. The internal logic of what the apparatus tried to do is self evident. People say, well, Trump, you got DeSantis, Nikki Haley. No, no, it's only Trump. Why am I the Trump 2028 guy? Because this is the third time in American history you've had it in a crisis. Washington was there for the revolution and there for the founding of the country. If anybody was essential, it was General Washington. Lincoln was essential for the rebirth of the country. And Trump is essential and is the world historical figure for the reclaiming and rejuvenation of the country. And if you read the book, you'll see everything against him. Just ask yourself as you turn every page, why are they doing this? They stole the 2020 election. Right? And you read back everything they did in 16 from the very moment he won. Actually, see how they planned it in advance, how they knew, like the folks when I ran Breitbart, I knew in 14 and 15. This is why we had the big throwdown with Megyn Kelly and Fox News in August of 2015. Yes, when Mark Levin, Tel Aviv Levin was the biggest cheerleader for Ted Cruz. Oh, by the way, just at the very moment, the very moment that Netanyahu is now taking orders as a head of a protectorate of the United States of America. And orders you shall take all of a sudden. Yesterday in the Daily Telegraph, Rob Crilley, one of the best reporters out there, has an article on Ted Cruz preparing to run for president again. Does that surprise you? Tel Aviv Levin? You saw, by the way, his interview with Tucker Carlson was a disgrace, a total and complete disgrace. Disgrace. Of course, APAC needs a candidate. Tel Aviv Levin. And these guys, this is who they were so vicious the other day, they put up another Breitbart thing. I reposted up on Getter from, I think, April of 2016, of Levin being interviewed by Breitbart. Never in a million years will he vote for Trump. It can only be Ted Cruz. That would have turned out well. If Trump had lost to Hillary Clinton, the country would already be gone because they would have had Merrick Garland on the Supreme Court and had the whole thing run, the whole deal. And you see what they want to do. They hate the United States of America. They hate the United States of America as a constitutional republic built upon the values of the Judeo Christian west and a Christian nation, full stop. They hate that. And the demons and the perverts and the degenerates that are represented in this. Not even a party, whatever it is, it's a faction of the Democrats. Because now it's getting more and more radical every day. You see it before your eyes. You see what they are. They tell you what they are every day. And you've had one man who stood in the breach and was relentless about it. The book from Eric Trump. And look at Eric Trump, how emotional he was, how heated it got. Why? You don't see that from Eric every day. People that know him, people who are good friends, you don't see that from him. He's a business guy. Why? Because he saw this. Somebody had nothing to do with politics. And when you don't have anything to do with politics, you don't see how these, how brutal it is, how the deep state, along with the oligarchs, control the country. They run the deal. And some like Trump comes up and he has this concept, America first and American citizens first. They are not going to tolerate that. They're not looking for a debate. They're not looking for, oh, yeah, well, let's sit down. That's pretty interesting. Let me. Let me know. They want to grind you into dust. This is why we must be so focused on our resolve. We have one opportunity now. This is. What do I say all the time, Maximalist strategy, a sense of urgency and seize the institutions. It has to happen now. It has to happen while Trump's here. Every day we're burning daylight and there are many people around him because it's still the neoliberal, neocon Republican Party of their passive. They don't want to rock the boat. They still want to go to the clubs. They still want to be in the country club. They still want to be invited on the news networks. You know, they still want to go the cocktail parties. They want to be part of the system. They want to say, well, I disagree. And I think, you know, marginal tax rates are this. Or, you know, they want to argue on things that are on the. On the margin and not to the heart of it. To the heart of it. Like, they tried to destroy us. And this is why Peter Navarro keeps saying, don't think they're trying to destroy, not destroy you. This is what they try to do with the billboards and J6 that's coming after you. And they will come after you in the future. This fight is far from over. Far from over. Short break Gold. What?

Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. Next hour we're going to have hopefully depending on Senate votes and how things are going, Senators, Tuberville banks and in Hawley to talk about not just, not just the spying on the Senate which I think has gotten and this is extraordinary. I want to go back. You had Ron Johnson, Ron Johnson sat there and would what did Ron Johnson, Senator Johnson asked for whistleblowers to come forward on this Arctic frost, right. The Jack Smith, the whole spying thing. And he said, you know, Dan Bongino is out looking for information. The FBI can't find out the information because they're hiding it. This gets back they had this is why I called the FBI, the Gestapo. I don't know why we're not taking it apart. I love me some cash and I realize he's got, you know, law enforcement, other things to do. But you're not going to this apparatus is not going to be tamed until you start taking apart brick by brick. That means the CIA and the FBI and They said, well, gosh, how can, how can you have national security if the, if the CIA, what is the CIA called, right? The second anniversary of this attack in Israel by the Muslim Brotherhood. That was. Remember, it was over 40 miles. It was air, sea, land, it was highly sophisticated. Coming in like paratroopers on gliders. They had the floor, floor plans for the kibbutzes. They knew about who they had on the guard, the guard towers. They knew about the Burning man festival they had down, I guess along the perimeter of Gaza. They know it all. Did the CIA know anything? Has the CIA called anything right? Has the CIA called anything, right? With the trillions of dollars we spend on intelligence, what did they get, right? I can tell you having, getting the presidential daily brief every day. You know how Navarre and I used to try to piss them off, ask them, why is this classified? They go nuts. They lose it. It's a third rate organization now. What it's best at is enforcing, enforcing the established order on American citizens. That's what they're good at. What they're good at is controlling the deal. They're not good at protecting the country. Did they get the Ukraine war, right? No. They say, well, we know it. Telling people about it. No, no, no, no, no, no. Oh, contrary. Now they may be running and probably are and I believe out of V spot and they're running big parts of the Ukraine operation now. The war, the. All kind of dark secrets in Ukraine that no one wants expo, that they don't want exposure or hiding. The senator from Wisconsin stood there in front of a microphone. You'll say, thank you, Grassley. And what did he do? He used that as his time to ask folks in the FBI, could you become whistleblowers? Is that extraordinary? And he said, the deputy director of the FBI, Dan Bongino, who's as tough as boot leather, right? Dan's a tough guy. They says he can't unearth all stuff because it's being hidden. What does this also tell us? The deep state's a living, breathing thing. And this is why at Tampa, I said, we have to take it apart and grind it to dust. Now, now, now we don't have the opportunity. This is why last night with Roger Kimball, who I think is one of the smartest guys, I said, he got into this thing about things we're doing, says, well, we're going to have eight years of Marco or JD and the eight years of JD Or Marco. So we got. I said, no, you can't hope for that. Don't let that be Your calculation, it's today. It has to happen today. It has to happen today. If it doesn't happen today, it's not going to happen. That's why I keep saying we're burning daylight. We are burning daylight every day. And the people around President Trump right now on the shutdown, have you noticed Russ vote has not come out with plan A, B or C. Plan A being we're letting half of them go or letting all the non essentials go. Plan B, we're letting half of the go. Plan C is, we're letting some. No, you haven't seen any of it. Why? They're all around President Trump, all the donor class and all the corporations and all the big business guys and all the rhinos up there, which when I say RINOs are, I don't know, 90% of them are telling President Trump, oh, you can't do this, you got to do this. You can't do this. Don't, please don't do that. And hey, there may be some reason for negotiations not on and there's nothing to negotiate about. The illegal aliens. There may be some issues President Trump wants to deal with on a bomb, but it doesn't mean you unlock it. You right now, you grind it to dust. You take Ross votes, hey, you gave me a menu. Let me, let me pick the feast. Or if not, let half of them go and make sure half of those non essentials are in the CIA and FBI. Start there. Don't believe me? Eric, Trump has given you an amazing opportunity to get an insider's account. You get to see it from the inside and you'll see the overwhelming power of one, one of the, one of the more powerful families in the country because of Donald Trump's, you know, $7 billion. Also his presence in the media before he became president. And look what they did in the first term and then the second when they thought they had, they knew they'd stolen it, he was gone and never coming back. But they had to destroy the very memory of Donald Trump as a warning, as a warning, as a warning to any other politician to say, you step out of line and don't play in the conventional mode of Republicans like Nikki Hale. If you're not a neoliberal neocon and want to talk about marginal tax rates and whether the arms shipment to Israel is $5 billion or $10 billion, we're going to destroy you. We destroy Trump. We destroy Trump's family. Who are you? Because we will destroy you, too. That's what this was about. That's what it's still about. We are such a long way to go to victory. And remember, there's no middle ground here. It's either we win or they win. Don't take it from me. Read Under Siege and think about it and share it. But think about it first. The more you think, the better we are. The more you think, even think about something like, oh, gold's at 4,007. Where'd you hear that first? Or was going years ago. Not to give you a price, but to understand that this thing was going to be on fire. Right here. How we told you about the prime reserve currency, the dollar, fiat currency. Why gold's been a hedge throughout history. Birchgold.com promo code Bannon, go check it out today, the second hour. I don't know it's being as on fire as the first. But we're gonna try. We're gonna try our best. Bunch of senators coming up in the war room next.
