Key Discussion Points & Insights

Tennessee’s Special Election: A “Slight Victory” with Ominous Signs

[00:00 – 04:56]

• Steve Bannon opens by acknowledging that Republican candidate Matt Van Epps won the Tennessee 7th by only 9 points—a massive drop from Trump’s 22-point lead a year earlier.
• Michael Berman calculates a 13-point Democratic swing, calling it clear evidence of a building “blue wave”:

  “Republicans should be running for the hills this morning because the blue wave is building.” [00:32, Michael Berman]

• Turnout Analysis: The turnout matched that of the 2022 midterms, undercutting GOP claims that special elections are unrepresentative.
• Larry (Political Analyst): Suggests that if such swings persist, Democrats could take back the House, possibly even threaten the Senate.

  “If this kind of shift is maintained...Democrats would certainly take over the House of Representatives.” [02:44, Larry]

• Political Commentator: Points out the district was carefully gerrymandered for Republicans and that the Democrat had significant baggage—yet still vastly closed the gap.

Economic Concerns: Small Business Job Losses and Tariffs

[04:56 – 07:18]

• Steve Bannon reviews negative ADP payroll data showing steep declines in small business jobs, with speculation that tariffs and interest rates are at fault.
• Bannon disputes mainstream narratives blaming tariffs, suggesting interest rates are the true culprit.

  “There is no evidence that anybody’s put forward, and I mean hard evidence that the tariffs are having anything to do with this.” [07:18, Steve Bannon]

Activating the MAGA Base: Focus on Turnout & Grassroots

[07:18 – 22:23]

• Bannon emphasizes that true Republican strength depends on “engagement in the process” and the ability to turn out “low propensity” Trump-aligned voters.
• Commends the work of precinct strategists, the “War Room posse,” and dedicated grassroots volunteers.
• Steve Stern details efforts in Texas and nationwide for Republican registration growth, hand-counting ballots, and election security calls.

  “Precinct strategy, the most important thing that we could do for the 2026 election, power into that.” [22:07, Steve Stern]

• Ongoing push for paper ballots and “hand counting” as means of securing elections.

Alarming Trends: Sharia Courts and Islamic Institutions in the US

[23:28 – 35:31]

• Peter McElveen warns that Texas—and the US more broadly—are following the UK and Europe in growth of mosques and Sharia courts.
  • Example: Islamic Tribunal of Dallas now hearing 300 cases/year; North American Islamic Trust claims deeds to potentially 650+ US mosques.
  • Concerns over “parallel legal systems” and treatment of women in these communities.

  “It is not voluntary for the women. The women have no choice...she is thrown out, and she is nothing, because the man takes all.” [24:26, Peter McElveen]

• Bannon frames this as a creeping threat comparable to developments in Europe, calling out Republican governors for inaction.

  “You have a cancer right now in the United States and this cancer is starting to eat away.” [31:39, Steve Bannon]

Broader “Pattern Recognition” & Political Alarmism

[29:17 – 35:31]

• Bannon attempts to connect developments: “As Texas goes, so goes the country,” connecting the rise of Islamic institutions, immigration policy, and Democratic electoral gains.
• Alleges a “Muslim takeover” of government at various levels (referencing officials in Virginia, NYC, Minnesota).

  “This is going to become the major issue. President Trump says, ‘I’ve had it. I don’t want these people coming in the country.'” [30:02, Steve Bannon]

Minnesota & Immigration: Crime, Corruption, and Islam

[36:33 – 42:10]

• Mike Lindell describes Minnesota’s large Somali population as engaging in “billions” in welfare fraud and election crimes, tying this back to broader accusations of illegal immigration and government incompetence.

  “The American citizens have taken a back seat to the Somalians.” [39:16, Steve Bannon]

• Lindell claims his Christian-based recovery network is targeted by Keith Ellison, Minnesota’s attorney general, because of its explicit religious identity.

Policy and Political Action: Trump’s Next Steps

[44:39 – 49:25]

• Bannon claims President Trump plans sweeping reversals of all Biden-era executive orders, pardons, and commutations.
• Discussion of tightening immigration—banning refugees and asylum from 30 countries, promises of “mass deportations,” with specific attention on action in Minnesota:

  “President Trump...is going to drop the hammer in Minnesota...I’d be shocked if [the governor] wasn’t doing some hard time here before too long.” [44:39, Steve Bannon]

Calls to Action, Product Promotions, and Future Programming

• Throughout, listeners urged to get involved in local election integrity efforts, join War Room-affiliated calls, and support brands like MyPillow (long product plug at [46:27]).

Transcript

[Steve Bannon]

This evening, all eyes are on Tennessee's 7th district, which is holding a special election to fill its House seat. This is a district that Donald Trump won by 22 points just one year ago. But this evening it was a much, much closer race. The NBC News decision desk can project that the Republican, Matt Van Epps has defeated the Democrat, Afton Bain. But right now the margin is only about 9 points. So while the Democrats did not gain a seat, they did come a whole lot closer to Republicans in a ruby red district ahead of next year' terms.

[Michael Berman]

Let's talk about the numbers. Republicans should be running for the hills this morning because the blue wave is building. My dear friend, Mr. Berman, what are we talking about here? Well, Van Epps, Matt Van Epps, the Republican candidate, he won it by nine. But this is a district that Donald Trump won by 22 points. 15 points, 17 points. This is a 13 point gain for the Democrats in terms of the margin. And excuse time for Republicans is over because I hear all about these special turnout so low, it's not representative of what happened in the midterm election. The turnout last night in Tennessee's 7th district was equal to the turnout in the 2022 midterm election. So the blue wave, it seems to be building right out of center of Tennessee.

[Steve Bannon (War Room Host)]

And we may not have won tonight, but we changed the story of what's possible here. And we're not done, not by a long shot.

[Mike Lindell]

So tomorrow we keep fighting, tomorrow we keep building.

[Steve Bannon (War Room Host)]

Tomorrow we keep organizing.

[Michael Berman]

See, happening is take a look here. Okay, 2025, U.S. house special elections. Dems outrunning Kamala Harris. A lot of blue here, a lot of blue, which is what I think the nation might look like a year from now if these results hold. Arizona, 7. You see a 17 performance of Kamala Harris, 23 points in Florida, 1, 16. 16 points in Florida, 6. 13 points in Tennessee, 7. 28 points in Texas, 28. And then 17 points in Virginia, 11. So we've seen it throughout the nation. Whether you go from the suburbs of Washington, D.C. all the way to southwest to the southwest in Arizona, whether you're looking at Texas, whether you're looking at Tennessee, whether you go down to Florida, we have seen the Democratic outperformance of Kamala Harris happening across the political map. What happened last night in Tennessee and ain't just staying in Tennessee, it is spreading itself throughout the nation. As I said. To me, looking at these results, it looks like a blue wave is building.

[Steve Bannon]

Larry, what are your reaction?

[Larry (Political Analyst)]

Well, our reaction is that it's always Better to win than to lose. But this particular victory for the Republicans is unimpressive. It's flat. It shows a shift of 12 or 13 points in the Democratic direction compared to Trump's win in 2020. And if, if, if this kind of shift is maintained, the magnitude of it to next year's midterm elections, Democrats would certainly take over the House of Representatives. I wouldn't want to wager a guess on the Senate, but I bet the Senate would get a lot closer to special elections.

[Michael Berman]

You know, we're sort of applying these hypothetical numbers, right, in terms of, oh, Democrats would gain north of 40 seats if, you know, you moved everything over, you know, 13 points from the 2024 presidential result. But we actually have history to show that what happens in special elections doesn't just stay in special elections. It spills over to the midterm results, special elections and midterm results. I just keep going to this. When a party outperformed in special elections since 2005, five out of five times, they went on to win a majority in the US House of Representatives. What happened last night in Tennessee is a very, very bad omen for Republicans and a very, very good omen for Democrats.

[Political Commentator]

I think a couple of things. One is that it is obviously a very red district that was gerrymandered to beat to protect Republicans, and so it should have been a very safe win. And the candidate Republicans had, from all I've heard, was a pretty good candidate. I mean, he's sort of central casting, military background, etc. And the Democratic candidate, while she ran a very good campaign, had some very difficult things in her background, like in a podcast saying that she hated Nashville, hated country music in a district that represented Nashville. That's a tough thing to overcome. And yet she still improved the margin by 10 or more points. So when you net it out, what this really means for members of Republican members of Congress, unless you won your seat by a lot more than 12 points, you're looking around and saying, gee, you know, this means that if I only won my race by 12 points, that it's a dead even race come the midterms. And that's, that's assuming that things don't get worse, which they're likely to.

[Stephen K. Bannon]

Joe. Yeah, A big miss on the ADP payrolls, the private payroll company saying private payroll shed 32,000 workers in November. That's the fourth negative number in the past six months for this series. Take a look here. The estimate was for 40,000. So the street was off on this one. And how did you get there? Well, Goods producing shed 19,000 workers. Service producing shedding 13,000 workers. But the big story here, and I'll show you more detail on this is what's happening with Small business down 120,000. Medium and large business doing okay, up 51 and 39,000 respectively. But take a look at this chart here. Virtually all of the job losses have come from small business which has been negative in six of seven months since April. Without those losses, ADP numbers would actually be positive. But you can't get rid of or you can't exclude small business. And then you look at it by sector. Well we've seen those two sectors do it. Education, health services leading the way but manufacturing down, information down and professional business services down by 26,000. Also another sign of weakness in the job market. Job stayers their, their wages up 4.4. That's down a tenth from the prior month. And job changers that was a big number or had been, that's down 410 of a point to 6.3%. So Joe, at least according to ADP, additional weakness in the job market and small business getting hammered. And there is some information that some of this may be coming from being hammered by the tariffs.

[Birch Gold Group Representative]

This is the primal scream of a dying regime.

[Steve Bannon (War Room Host)]

Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people's not got a free shot. All these networks lying about the people, the people have had a belly full of it. I know you don't like hearing that. I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that but.

[Birch Gold Group Representative]

You'Re not going to stop it. It's going to happen.

[Michael Berman]

And where do people like that go.

[Steve Bannon (War Room Host)]

To share the big lie?

[Michael Berman]

MAGA MEDIA I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.

[Birch Gold Group Representative]

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

[Steve Bannon (War Room Host)]

If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.

[Stephen K. Bannon]

War ROOM here's your host Stephen K. Ban.

[Steve Bannon (War Room Host)]

It's Wednesday 3rd December year Verlor 2025. We're packed today of things to go through. You saw and we've got David Zier posto an entire team at the Pentagon right now. They're in a briefing, a behind closed door briefing and they're going to be out I think momentarily at the bottom of the hour for us to get both zero and sobic A lot going on on the national security front. I want to go back. You saw okay. Why do we play things that upset you early in the morning before you've, you know, maybe Some of you in particular on the west coast have not gotten to your warpath coffee. We do it to make sure that you understand how the narrative is being set by the opposition, by the enemy of maga, the enemy of President Trump. You saw cnn, you see the joy. I mean, you see the exuberance. They're talking about a blue wave and they're sitting there spiking the football. Look, the takeaway from yesterday is when MAGA engages because this thing was a dead heat. In fact, we were down on the early vote when MAGA engages over those four or five days that people worked and the communications got out there and clearer communication lines. And then the candidate, who I agree with CNN was a terrific candidate, a combat veteran kind of from central casting, when, when all of that got out, you had a massive blowways. Michael Patrick Leahy told us, if you represent on game day, you're gonna have a blowout. And Leahy told me beforehand, hey, I think we can win this thing by 9 or 10 points if people turn up and people turned up. Don't look at the 13 point swing. That's not particularly relevant. What's relevant in this race is in the most important thing overall is people's engagement in the process. When people finally got engaged in this process over the long Thanksgiving weekend and then on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, they get out the vote. The focus in very cold, bitter weather, there was blowout numbers which the Democrats were not expecting on, on election day, on game day. This is what we're going to have to depend upon in, in the midterm elections. This is all about getting out low information, low propensity voters who oftentimes have, if Trump's not on the ballot, if Trump's not there, we're just not, not interested. We're going to have to engage those people every day. Now the other part of this on the cold open was the ADP payroll number, particularly for small business. Once again, I think CNBC is just making it up. There is no evidence that anybody's put forward, and I mean hard evidence that the tariffs are having anything to do with this. Maybe softening in, slight softening in small business. What I think it reinforces is the interest rate situation and this is why President Trump's pick for the Federal Reserve and if, and if Powell is going to give up his seat as governor, which we'll get to later in the week, the complexity of this right now, I think this is about interest rates and about the way the Fed miscalculates interest rates and Powell refuses To, you know, refuses to respond. Now, there's supposed to be another cut in December, but knowing Powell and particularly knowing how vindictive he is against the president and MAGA and in the Trump administration, I'm sure he's not going to give any guidance to additional cuts coming in in 26. So what does this all mean? We have a, we have a real fight on our hands. The supply side tax cuts. And as President Trump said yesterday, the capital expenditures are coming from those countries that have committed, I don't know, between 9 and $18 trillion somewhere to bring back to build manufacturing plant here in the United States to avoid the tariffs, which is the point. The tariffs are a forcing function. When those kick in, and they will kick in sometime in 26, you start to get, you know, massive GDP growth, massive GDP per capita growth, jobs, wages, whatever. And I've said, hey, you may have a gap there before the two, before it totally kicks in. I think you may be seeing that gap, at least a little bit of it. On this ADP number. You saw the way the reason we wanted to play the Harry Anton thing in its entirety, intercut with what the Democratic candidate was saying last night, is the exuberance the mainstream media is going to try to bury President Trump. They've tried this from the very beginning when he came down the escalator. You guys know it. You've been ringside. You have been the force that put him on your shoulders when the establishment basically stole in the globalists stole the, in the deep state, stole the 2020 election for the greatest comeback in history. And this is why I think it's, it's incumbent upon now action, action, action. You're having a, essentially a fist fight between Elise Stefanik and Johnson right now on the ndaa on certain elements of it tied to intelligence and tied to Arctic Frost and tied to everything that the, that the, the deep state has tried to do to Trump to tear him apart. That Jamie Raskin has been able to block some things and put some other things in there and she says it's not acceptable and she's gone public with it. If now we ever had a clarion call for more direct action. Direct action. Action, action. It has to be now. And I realize President Trump now has the thing that we're blocking for immigration and you know, cutting off all the illegal immigrants from tax benefits, which, hey, I think most people figured we did that day one. But hey, if we didn't, that's fine, let's do it today. But as importantly, you know, Boss Bosberg the judge, I think is refusing to come over at an invitation to testify. And I believe it's even behind closed doors of the house. It's time now to impeach him, to go after with more indictments right now against the deep state. And, and this is why we have, you know, Poso and Zir from the Pentagon. God bless the fact that, you know, you're in Moscow, you're here, you're there, you're all these places, Bibi's coming to Mar a Lago, that's all fine. But the priority has to be here and even there, even in these situations, it's how it relates back directly. And the taxpayer and the citizen understands we're in Moscow to try to end this war because this directly affects you. We don't have to shovel any more money in there or we're in Venezuela because we're tired of the drugs coming up. And also they were in back of one of the big parts, in back of the invasion of the country country or in Israel. We're finally shutting this thing down and it's going to become a, a secondary thought, as it should be. It's a sideshow to a sideshow. You got to get back to the main event and the main event is here and we got our work cut out for us. But he's here, Harry Hinton. The blue wave is building. Look at that. Look. Look how jacked up they are. And that is on the 3rd of December of 2025. As they get any analytics at all that support their theory, you're going to have your nose rubbed in it every day. And they're going to try to build a psychological wave by convincing the American people and particularly in convincing maga, it's too late. This is what they try to do in Tennessee and you represented, and I mean over represented on game day to lead to a blowout number a nine point win. Don't forget that. A nine point win. They were hoping for something like two or three Short break. Back in a moment. Let me be blunt.

[Birch Gold Group Representative]

Gold is up around 40% this year. That's not speculation, that's reality. And if a portion of your savings isn't diversified into gold, you're missing the boat.

But he talked about certain policies President Trump's announced that's jacked up. Of course that's what he thought. Most of the stuff is done now more than ever. I think the president, the people around him got to say, hey, look, you know, president's being told all this stuff is now saying, hey, we got it, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. Let's just focus, focus, focus. You got the right team, you got the right policies. It's just hit it. The other thing I want people to understand, it just doesn't appear to nowhere when you have this massive game day results. The Democrats thought they would win this or it would be late in the night, early in the morning or it'd be a two or three point win at the most. They weren't prepared for nine. The reason you have this is you have maga, the war posse, the precinct strategy folks. You have people out there that are engaged in working nonstop. Steve Stern, I know you particularly, I think this week are going to focus this afternoon going to focus on Texas. Tell us what your guys are up to and why this is so important. We have hundreds of groups out there all the time working on election integrity, working on a precinct strategy, get out the vote, all of this. Walk me through what you guys are doing today and why people should tune in.

[Steve Stern]

[Steve Bannon (War Room Host)]

Thank you, brother. And thank you for hitting us today. Very important 2pm and a hat tip to Melissa Katz and everybody down in Dallas. President's ecstatic about this. This paper ballot hand counted, leading a revolution in Texas. And quite frankly, Dallas county ain't easy to do. Texas is vitally important. Peter McElveen joins us now Peter, you wrote a piece the other day. You came and spent just a couple of days in Texas, and you were shocked. And you've been one of the best. Now that Nigel's in the government, Raheem's over here covering more American news. I think you are probably you and Tommy Robinson are the two best about showing what's going on and really the collapse of our mother country, Great Britain. And it's shocking and it gets worse every day, and it's accelerating at an accelerating rate. You came here for just a couple of days in Texas, and you told me, you said, hey, look, you guys gotta understand, you're heading down the same path and maybe heading down the same path more rapidly than you guys were at the beginning. Walk us through that in this piece you wrote the other day.

[Peter McElveen]

Well, yeah, Raheem's done great job. He's left Londonistan. I'm still here. And this was showing some of the courts that are operating, some of the Sharia courts that are operating in the US to give you an example. And in the UK, we've got 85 Sharia courts. They've been operating since 1982. There was a government report back, I think, 2018, and it said that these bodies operate as a parallel legal system and they subject tens of thousands of British women to medieval rules. That was the understanding of the British government in 2018. So over in the US in Texas, I looked at three different charay courts that are operating. The Islamic Tribunal of Dallas, which is up there, northeast Dallas, up near Piano, where the huge epic city development is being pushed forward. And it is, it now has, I think it started 2014 as a voluntary, voluntary, the voluntary mediation service. And these all start as voluntary. But, Steve, it is not voluntary for the women. The women have no choice. And in the UK, some of the courts, 90% of the cases are by women who are desperate and want to help in their marriages and are trapped. And all they need is the man to say, I divorce you three times according to Islamic law, and she is divorced, she is thrown out, and she is nothing, because the man takes all. He is the winner. So you've got the Islamic Tribunal of Dallas that is now having 300 cases a year, started in 2014. That's ramped up. And I looked at some of the other ones. One of the big ones in the US is the North American Islamic Trust. And back in 2003, I think it was in a Senate hearing, and it talked about them then having title deeds to 300 to 325 U.S. mosques. Now, at the time, that was 11%. At the time there were about 1300 mosques. So 10%. You now have 2,700 mosques, according to 2020 figures. That is well above 3,000 now. So who knows how many mosques the Islamic, the North American Islamic Trust now operates. It could be far more. At that time it was 27%. It could. If it's the same amount, then they rule. They run 650 mosques in the US and again, there are Sharia courts attached to a number of of those mosques. And this is about divorces, this is about estate issues and local issues. And again, these are run by all men, all male, as you can imagine, four men. A lot of these are trained in the Middle East. So they come over, they then run these courts and subjugate, subject these women to many evil rules. And I was, when I look back at the state of Texas, I kind of thought as a foreigner, you know, Texas has always been a red state. And then you look, it was only, basically you only had three Republican governors, I think since the founding of Texas state, up until George W. Bush. And then you've had 30 years and George W. Bush, Rick Perry and and Greg Abbott. This ramping up of mosques, this ramping up of Charia courts, this ramping up of halal food in Dallas, running in Houston, running at 23% a year. The biggest growth in Haliford in America in, in Houston. This has happened under Republican governors. Now, it's not my place to criticize. I will let the Warren posse have their say on that. But there is a concern that this is happening under the noses and at least Greg has woken up to this.

[Steve Bannon (War Room Host)]

Peter, hangover Second? No. Just declared the care and declared the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organization. Kind of got ahead of the, the Trump administration and we're very appreciative of that. Stick around. We got more questions about this. As Texas goes, so goes.

[Birch Gold Group Representative]

If you're a homeowner, you need to listen to this. In today's AI and cyber world, scammers are stealing home titles with more ease than ever. And your equity is the target. Here's how it works. Criminals forge your signature on one document, use a fake notary stamp, pay small fee with your county, and boom, your home title has been transferred out of your name. Then they take out loans using your equity or even sell your property. You won't even know it's happened until you get a collection or foreclosure notice. So let me ask you, when was the last time you personally checked your home title? If you're like me. The answer is never. And that's exactly what scammers are counting on. That's why I trust Home Title lock. Use promo code [e-mail] to make sure your title is still in your name.

[Stephen K. Bannon]

Here's your host, Stephen K. Band.

[Steve Bannon (War Room Host)]

Okay, folks, time to take your number two pencil out. We're gonna have a little pattern recognition exercise on some of the most important stories in the world in the nation. That kind of a little bit desperate, but I think you'll see, you'll go, aha, I see the point. He's trying to get at Bibi. Scheduled now to come over, I think to Mar a Lago. And of course part of it is this pardon, but let's set that aside. The other is that a number of folks over there saying, hey, this Gaza thing's not working out because we don't want the Turks. It turns out other nations don't want the Turks. Some of them want Qatar, others don't want Qatar, but it's all related to the Muslim Brotherhood. And the Muslim Brotherhood's reach into Turkey into Qatar. You've got in the Commonwealth of Virginia, the first Muslim ever elected, my beloved Commonwealth ever elected on a statewide level in any state in the union, the lieutenant governor, governor's Muslim in three stories. I got McElveeny now from London who's talking about Texas when he came here about, hey, how America. He says, don't fool yourself. You're heading down the path we headed in London. Stan Lindell's going to join me in a second. Minnesota, this situation, the Somalians in Minnesota, it's a money laundering, racketeering operation under these progressives like Waltz that just look the other way. Plus in New York City, Mandami, he's a Ugandan Marxist jihadist, okay? The Muslims are now in control of New York City. Do you see the pattern recognition? This is going to become the major issue. President Trump, the lead story in Daily Mail leads during the New York Post overnight. President Trump says, I've had it. You saw yesterday at the. Maybe we have time to play later at the cabinet meeting. He hit him with both barrels. I don't want these people coming in the country. I'm not going to allow these people to come into the country. Andrew Colvette puts up very brilliantly saying, hey, President Trump's not just reawakening, but re emphasis on this over the Thanksgiving holidays is one of the reasons that we had a game day blowout by and for a MAGA candidate who by the way, had spent nine combat tours as a young man coming out of West Point, where in Iraq, Afghanistan, the Middle east, with the entire Islamic war were fighting over there. So you see the pattern recognition. Can you connect some dots here? It ain't that hard. And the mainstream media doesn't want to talk about it. They don't want to connect dots. This is a clear and present danger for our country and it's going to take brave Texans. I mean, Abbott, look, he called him he Designated care. And they're already being sued. Designated care, a terrorist organization designated. The Muslim Brotherhood, a terrorist organization. You have a cancer right now in the United States and this cancer is starting to eat away. It's going to take very brave people to call it out and not just call it out, to stand in the breach and saying, no, we are not going to allow what happened in Europe to happen here. And this is the whole thing about the Ukrainian negotiations when we're sitting there going, well, what are the Europeans putting up? What are the Europeans guaranteeing? What are the Europeans about? Ukraine, they came and saved their own countries. France, Germany and England are all going to fall. Brussels, they're all going to fall because of this. And the Islamic radicals know that. They brag about it. McElvenny, I've been told forever in London and in Texas that the Sharia courts have no, no standing, no bearing. They can't do anything. What do you mean? They're telling women what to do and they're making these codes. They tell us over and over again, not the Muslims. They say, no Sharia law. It works. I'm talking about American officials sit there constantly and say, you're wrong, you're an alarmist. In England, you're an alarmist. They have no, they have no, no, no, no standing, no jurisdiction. What say you, sir?

[Peter McElveen]

Well, I've made this point regularly, Steve, and my point would be tell this to the women that may live in 2025 in Dallas, but really they're subjected to a legal system that is 7th century Arabia. They don't know any better because many of them don't speak English. It's A closed community. They are not allowed out of their house, they're not allowed out to work, they are simply there to look after the children. Now, in the us, in the uk, it was the Muslim Arbitration Tribunal Act. Say that quickly. And that was passed 1982, I believe. And then since then we've allowed Muslim courts, of which there are 85 in America. It's slightly different. My understanding is that you've got the Federal arbitration Act of 1924 or 1925 and that allows Christian, Jewish and Muslim courts. Now, I would argue, why do you need religious courts in a country? Because then you've got competing, different laws. That is where the opening happened to allow this. So for 100 years this has been happening, but you haven't had mass immigration, you haven't had Muslim entities. Now you do now you have this huge growth and therefore this is a problem. So they're using that legislation. Now, of course, that legislation says these bodies function as private arbitration tribunals, they're not official courts. But it does seem to say that it gives force of law to the judgments. Therefore they do seem to be legally binding. Not says they're only legally binding if it doesn't conflict with federal or state laws. But you tell me which quarter police officer is going to go into an Islamic area and demand access to those rulings and then to begin to enforce or unenforce them. That doesn't happen, of course, these courts, it's wonderful because it's not in English. There are no records kept, there's no transparency. So the government is not allowed a look in. If it was allowed to look in, it would realise that these are absolutely unfair to how women are treated, especially in divorce cases and custody cases, in financial cases, in business transactions. This is unfair and does conflict with U.S. law. But you'll need a very brave individual in law enforcement or courts is going to enforce the rule of law.

[Steve Bannon (War Room Host)]

We're going to have to. We're going to have to do that in Texas. One of the reasons I meet with Glenn Story and the team this afternoon is that you're going to have to. You've designated the Muslim Brotherhood in the CARES terrorist. Now you got to get down to it. You got to. You got to dig them out of here and start with these Sharia courts. And I'm telling you what's happened in Texas. Very, very scary. We're gonna have a bunch of big announcements about all this in the days and weeks ahead before Christmas, about January and 26. What we're going to do to start off With a bang. Mac Oven. Where did they go to get all your to see the show which is on fire and also your social media.

[Peter McElveen]

Well, every Monday, Thursday and Saturday, 3pm Eastern, we had Alec Lasson looking at fatherhood on Monday. We've got Bridget Gabriel on Thursday. Tomorrow talking about this very issue, the Muslim Brotherhood care, this debate about Islam that suddenly opened up. And of course you can watch on War Room, you can watch on Rumble, get her on War Room, or you can jump over to X on Hearts of Oak at Hearts of Oak uk. But stick with War Room and you'll find us every Monday, Thursday, Saturday.

[Steve Bannon (War Room Host)]

And also my personal up on Getter. Peter, thank you and great work. We appreciate what you're doing. Thanks, Steve, for our country and for England, Great Britain. Mike. Mike Lindell. You know, when Paul Ryan canceled us from going to Wisconsin in the closing 48 hours, 72 hours to the 2016, we told, I told Paul Ryan, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. We're actually, you know, winning in Wisconsin, but we got to go there one more time. We have to go. He says, no, you're going to lose. I can't do that. You can't come. So he banned us from there. And so a guy named Marty Davis knew Marty Davis through Laura Ingram. And we got, he had a hangar. We showed up to Minnesota, freezing cold. I think it was 25 degrees there. 15 or 25,000 people, 10,000 in the hangar, 15,000. President Trump's blown away. He always wanted Minnesota. And Miller and I are on the plane and he turns, this goes, okay, this is a 20 minute stop. I got to give a speech. What am I talking about? We just go Somalians. And President Trump went up there and gave a throwdown. So here we are in 2025. This scandal, sir, that is developing in Minnesota is breathtaking in its scale, its sophistication. And it's out in the open. Hey, we don't care. There's a massive money laundering operation, corruption operation in the great state tied to, wait for it, Islam and Somalians. What's going on there, Mike? And what are you guys going to do to stop.

[Mike Lindell]

And Steve, interesting you bring up that, that rally. I spoke at that rally. That's the first time I ever spoke in public at a rally. It was very nervous. But so much has happened since then. We already knew that this stuff was coming way back then. Being a resident of Minnesota all my life. And Steve, I look at it as a evil is greedy. I've always told everyone that evil is greedy. That's Our biggest advantage. And like I just heard from that Pam Bondi said over 50% of them, or maybe even more are here illegally. Overstate visas, all these things. But what this is going to do, Steve, not just this huge corruption and huge theft of billions of dollars from our. From us, but also it's going to open up to the stolen election. I believe Donald Trump won in 2016, won Minnesota. We all believe that.

[Steve Bannon (War Room Host)]

Yes.

[Mike Lindell]

There's so much tied to the election crime. And then you have our schools in Minnesota. This has also affected our schools. I've been looking at all this and it's just destroyed downtown Minneapolis in a lot of ways. You know, me being an ex addict, I spent a lot of time down there with. With your teen challenges. Teen challenges, your salvation armies. And, and then when the, when all the Somalians came in there.

[Steve Bannon (War Room Host)]

But what, what do you. The American citizens have taken a back seat to the Somalians. What do you. You know, President Trump better anybody. You're as close to him as any human out there. What are you. What are you recommending to President Trump? The action to be done today to start take care of this problem. We've let it fester. We've let Omar with the brother. We've let all this fester. Tim Walls now is being exposed as a completely. Not just incompetent, but corrupt. What's your recommendation to the president?

[Mike Lindell]

Well, Tim Waltz has to be gone. There's a first one. But no, you've gotta. We've got to stop this now. We've been, we've been praying for that this days would come. You guys got to realize the call to. The call to prayer is rung all over Minneapolis every day for. And it's disgusting. Walt tried to shut down all our Christian churches during the China virus and. But yet the mosque open. And so he's got to, he's got to. He's got to deport and just get, you know, get rid of all the ones for sure that, you know, they're here illegal. And I think they're doing that now according to Pam Bondi. I mean, I'm sorry, it wasn't Pam Bondi. It was Christine Noem. Kristi Noem said that they're. Over 50% of them are here. They're there now on illegal visas. But now is the time if we don't do it now and they committed crimes. They've committed these huge crimes and it goes so deep. And it's not just. You guys realize it's not just Minneapolis. It's all throughout Minnesota and other cities in Minnesota and who knows what. I don't, Steve, I don't even know if they've been investigated that far out.

[Steve Bannon (War Room Host)]

Has the Muslim attorney general in Minnesota targeted the Lindell Recovery Network because you have a Christian based solution for addiction, sir?

[Mike Lindell]

Yeah, absolutely. And that's going on as we speak. Everybody has me tied up for the last two weeks again. He's. He's all in. Keith Ellison is attacking my Lindell Recovery Network because is a Christian base. Gets people out of addiction, gets people to Jesus Christ. You know, I said a long time ago, Steve, at the, at the Rose Garden when I did that speech, a nation had turned his back on God. We had taken God out of the schools and, and I'll tell you in Minnesota, they've done everything they can to take God and Jesus Christ out of our state. And, and it's got to stop now. It's going to end. We're not going to let it happen. I will fight Keith Ellison on this. You know me. I don't stop. And I'm going, oh, you think you're getting this? You think you're shutting this down? You're not shutting down a platform to help help addicts and people in addiction get to Jesus. And so it's not going to happen. He's been doing this. He started this a year ago in September, Steve started the all out attack on my Recovery Network.

[Steve Bannon (War Room Host)]

Okay, Mike, hang on a second. I'm gonna hold you through the break. I hope you saw the connecting the dots. From Texas to Minnesota to New York City with Mondame. And finally President Trump sent in. I talk about the sovereignty in Ukraine. What about the sovereignty of the country? President Trump, the ICE guys went in on Saturday. Did you see that fracas? I mean it's absolutely. They're insurrectionist. They think that New York City is separate from the United States of America. It's only going to get worse with Mondami in charge. More ICE raids, more deportations. More mass deportations starting in New York City. And arrest everybody that is dormant jail immediately that are trying to thwart these brave ICE agents. Birch Gold Capital Markets are on fire.

[Stephen K. Bannon]

Here's your host, Stephen K. Band.

[Steve Bannon (War Room Host)]

An item we're going to take on this afternoon and tomorrow is President Trump. This is monumental, has essentially come out and said, and I think he's signing documents to this effect, that all of the executive orders and pardons and commutations done by Biden are null and void, fully null and void. That has massive, not just for society, but also legal ramifications, all of it. We're going to get into that. I mean, President Trump throwing down right now, now also talking about adding another 11 countries, make it 30 countries with no access, no refugees, no asylum. And the ones here, I guess, going to be turned back. All that's being worked through now. Looks like Kristi Noemi's on top of us. These are massive undertakings by the White House in the last, I would say 48, 72 hours. We'll be covering all that in depth. Huge developments. And I believe you're going to see the hammer dropped out in Minnesota. I think President Trump and others people in Minnesota, you talk to Royce White, the African American community out there is beside themselves. The Somalian situation is out of control. And now, you know, it's a massive money laundering, corruption, Medicaid, Medicare, all of it, stealing US Taxpayer money. Not going to happen. I think that thing, that entire rat's nest is going to be cleaned out. And I tell you who I think is going to be cleaned out with it. The sitting governor out there. I'd be shocked if he wasn't doing some hard time here before too long because I think he and his administration have known about this and look the other way. So all of that, Mike Lindell, it is a miracle given everything that people come after you on every different aspects because right, it's the president and then you're next. With all of us that were attacked, you were next. Is the most intense talk to me today about MyPillow. Sell me, sell me a pillow and some sheets.

[Peter McElveen]

It is, it is unacceptable as an American that what's happening with these Somalians essentially taking over Minneapolis and running roughshod in, in in Minnesota is, is on taxpayer money is out of control. So we look for your action plan sometime next week. Mike Lindell, thank you, sir.

[Mike Lindell]

Appreciate it. We got. Thank you. Thank you.

[Steve Bannon (War Room Host)]

The part of the interview, the first hour of the interview we had, we played on Monday, I think at 11 o'.

[Mike Lindell]

Clock.

[Steve Bannon (War Room Host)]

We'll play the second part right now. Starting 11 o'. Clock. There was such an explosive response from the war room audience that I think Penguin and Random House have announced that they're going to put another printing of the book out. There was such an overwhelming response of, of the war and posse to buy the book about William F. Buckley. You know, Mark Levin's out talking smack about the MAGA movement and you know, people in MAGA misinterpreting Bill Buckley. Well, it's all here in the book. Sam Tanenhaus is going to join me. We're going to go through all of it. The foundational elements of Richard Nixon, Barry Goldwater, Ronald Reagan that led to the to the Tea Party revolt, eventually to Pat Buchanan, the Tea Party revolt in Donald Trump, the life and the revolution that changed America. This book is a spellbinder but Sam Tanenhaus is a great storyteller and he'll be with me for the hour. You'll I'm sure you're going to enjoy it. The first one had overwhelming response and of course you guys bought book in a kind of at a record rate. I would say enough that the publishing company said they're going to put out another printing of it. As I've said, it's a great Christmas gift. I'm giving it to people. I always give books, not always to some of the younger people. I don't give books all the time but I give books I think a good book to get into a good book. It also trains the mind, particularly today in the age of artificial intelligence and the doom scrolling and the algorithm. Beat the algorithm. Read a book. How about that? Does that sound good? Sam Tenenhaus and the Cross. Incredible individual. One of the smartest guys out there and not a conservative might add, but really understands a lot about the history of the conservative movement because he's been the historian who's really done such a great job about it. We're gonna take a short commercial break. The Right Stuff. Talk about that Tom Wolf who was from my neighborhood in Richmond, Virginia over in Guinner Park. Tom Wolf, the author of the Right Stuff. Magnificent book. A movie that was not a appreciated at the time. The classic it has become by Philip Kaufman just a stunning motion picture about America at its greatest. And of course what Brother Conti and that Academy Award winning score. The Right Stuff takes us out back in the worm in a moment.
