Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Supreme Court Hearing on Birthright Citizenship

[00:53–05:20]

• Background: President Trump attended a live Supreme Court hearing on the constitutionality of birthright citizenship for children of undocumented immigrants—a first in U.S. history.

• Reaction:

  • Mike Howell found Trump's attendance meaningful: "He was there to show how committed he is to ending this absurd and unconstitutional policy that stems from a wrongly decided case so long ago... birthright citizenship’s a joke." (02:06)
  • Both Howell and Bannon criticized current birthright laws as being abused by foreign nationals (in particular, “Chinese birth tourism”), and allege Democrats use mass migration as a deliberate political strategy.

• Legal Arguments:

  • Organizers stress that the Fourteenth Amendment was intended to apply citizenship to children of slaves, not children of undocumented immigrants or tourists.
  • John Sauer emphasized: “If the Supreme Court follows the clear law here, this is a very easy case... it should be 6-3 saying that birthright citizenship is not for illegal aliens. Right? If the Supreme Court follows the politics, we could see a 7-2 decision for birthright citizenship for 1.5 million Chinese birth tourists.” (09:38)

• Concerns: Skepticism about Supreme Court justices Roberts, Gorsuch, and Barrett aligning with conservative positions.

2. Launch of the Mass Deportation Coalition Action Plan

[05:23–08:47]

• Action Plan Details:

  • Howell promotes MassDeportation.com, which offers a “100-page playbook…on how to get to at least one million deportations in 2026.” (05:35)
  • Claims: “It is a rock-solid plan and it proves that to not do it is a policy choice in and of itself.”
  • Plan developed with the input of law enforcement leaders (e.g., Erik Prince), lawyers, advocates, and grassroots supporters.

• Political Mobilization:

  • Emphasizes the need to make mass deportation the centerpiece of the 2026 midterms: "Our polling shows 80% of Trump voters want mass deportation executed; they think it’ll define his legacy." (07:46)
  • The coalition was formed in response to internal opposition and media pressure urging Trump to “not say mass deportation.”
  • Howell states: “We just had...enough and so we organized and put together the plan and now the American people can take a look at it.” (05:35)

3. Legal & Historical Arguments: Meaning of the Fourteenth Amendment

[09:27–14:07]

• John Sauer:

  • Explains historical context for the Fourteenth Amendment, emphasizing textualist/originalist approaches.
  • Key quote: “If American Indians did not have birthright citizenship under the Fourteenth Amendment, how the hell would illegal aliens? Do you think we fought a civil war to give birthright citizenship to 1.5 million Chinese birth tourists?” (11:14–14:07)

• Supreme Court Skepticism and Predictions:

  • Mixed predictions on the Supreme Court outcome, expressing concern about the legitimacy of the Court if it upholds birthright citizenship for children of illegal immigrants.

---

4. Mass Deportation as a Midterm Electoral Issue

[07:31–08:30]

• Bannon and Howell agree that mass deportation should be the "driving force" for motivating the Trump base. Fulfilling the promise is tied directly to electoral turnout and preventing Democratic impeachment proceedings against Trump.

---

5. U.S. Foreign Policy: Iran, NATO, and Allies

[16:24–22:34]

• Marco Rubio and others analyze Trump’s stated intention to wind down the war with Iran, speculating about motivations and the future stability of the region with the Strait of Hormuz as a persistent flashpoint.
• Rubio debates the value of NATO: “If now we have reached a point where the NATO alliance means that we can't use those bases to defend America's interests, then NATO is a one-way street.” (20:48)
• Discussion on whether Trump has the authority to pull the U.S. out of NATO (suggesting that such a move would be challenged as unconstitutional).

---

6. Broader Reflections: Immigration, Race, and Political Identity

[24:42–28:23]

• Analysis by political commentators on how Trump’s focus on birthright citizenship and deportation is read as an explicit appeal to his base.
• Discussion on the evolution of “America is for Americans” rhetoric and its connection to theories of demographic change, “great replacement,” and white supremacy.
• Legal experts voice surprise at the unpredictability of the Supreme Court case, with no clear expected outcome.

---

7. Upcoming Events and Cultural Commentary

[30:21–35:39]

• Announcement for the president’s evening address and live coverage plans.
• Brief update on a historic moon mission launch, with on-site reporting by Tracy Anthony.

---

8. Election Integrity and Perceived Reprisals

[36:25–41:52]

• Mike Lindell discusses alleged targeted attacks against his company MyPillow (“Arctic Frost”), connecting it to his advocacy for election integrity.
• Repeated claims of bank collusion to boycott MyPillow, blamed on Lindell’s and Trump’s activism.

---

9. Closing Cultural Segment

[49:44–53:46]

• Bruce Springsteen appears at the Minneapolis concert, positioning himself and his music in “defense of our American ideals, democracy, our constitution, and our sacred American promise,” and directly criticizing the Trump administration as “corrupt, incompetent, racist, reckless, and treasonous.” (49:44)
• Song by Natasha Owens presented as a counterpoint to Springsteen’s performance.

Conclusion

Episode 5265 positions mass deportation not just as a legal battle but as a central issue for MAGA voters heading into the 2026 midterms, arguing it should be the “tip of the spear” in Republican campaign strategy. The show blends legal argument, political strategy, and media/cultural narrative, contextualizing the unfolding Supreme Court case, ongoing political division, and the stakes for the Republican base. The episode concludes with a cultural clash, juxtaposing Bruce Springsteen’s denunciation of the Trump administration with MAGA-aligned cultural responses.

[John Sauer]

band

[Stephen K. Bannon]

wednesday the first of april your alert twenty twenty six okay we're a couple hours away from from the president gave a major address i think from the oval office tonight soon it's going to be about i don't know twenty thirty minutes long probably the max the networks are picking up so they normally are pretty when they negotiate these things they're pretty adamant about the time politico's got a story up with my thoughts i'll get back to that in a moment we're also a couple hours away from historic first time in the history of the country that a president has gone up during a live hearing an argument in front of the supreme court mike howe joins of course mike you had a number of big things today including the launching of the mass deportation coalition action plan we'll get to that in a second i think that people as they heard the solicitor general make the arguments today and then heard some of the comments from the various justices and not simply the crazed left wingers more than ever it seemed like a great day for you to launch your mass deportation coalition talk to me first what was your sense of what happened at the supreme court today yeah well

[Mike Howell]

obviously exciting day that president trump was there i think it was right for him to be there to show how committed he is to ending this absurd and unconstitutional policy that stems from a wrongly decided case so long ago i mean birthright citizenship's a joke people just jump the borders have kids and now they're citizens chinese use birth tourism i mean get out of here no serious country does that and we know why the democrats want to keep it it's because mass migration is their political strategy but look you can't read too much into these hearings and i know consensus out there is it looks like there are some problems with roberts and gorsuch and amy coney barrett but you know let's keep the the hope it could be six three on the wrong end of things could be you know closer to five four on the right end of things i don't know but let's hope wisdom prevails i think sour did a great job and making the case today and hopefully just the absurdity of this whole legal position that is held out of the wong kim our case comes to its terrible terrible demise here

[Stephen K. Bannon]

mike let's go back you're absolutely correct it's it's like even the arguments and sour did an amazing job but the aclu lawyer and what her arguments were and what the justice were asking i mean peter schweitzer lays out in his book that was five weeks number one on the new york times bestseller list how the chinese have got i think what one point four one point five million you know manchurian voters over living in mainland china that people have come over and purposely just game the system that i think they're talking the last twenty four forty eight hours they're chinese billionaires that have hundreds of kids because they've just they've just done this where was the common sense today so i i don't feel we ever got to just these basic common sense arguments about how ridiculous birthright citizenship is sir now

[Mike Howell]

not only are they common sense arguments but they're also legal arguments i mean basically the aclu and others are trying to maintain that this is what was intended by the drafters of the fourteenth amendment that you know was intended to give rights to slaves and citizenship to the children of slaves and the fact that it's been applied this way and warped to for obvious abuses against not only national security but just like the basics of national sovereignty does have tremendous meaning and how the judges should decide this i mean that's what they're there to do that's why they're called judges and justices they should judge this and arrive at the justice which is for the american people that we are not just going to be a joke of a country where others can take advantage of our system and have one political party in this country that views it as their demographic strategy to import new voters because they'll you know give them better policies like like free welfare benefits and lack security in continuing a boost because the democrats cannot change the minds of domestic natural born american citizens they're losing there and so they're trying to import elsewhere that's why the mobs are out you know protesting like a carnival i heard neil call it earlier today that's they don't want to lose that that's that's their main political strategy right

[John Sauer]

now

[Stephen K. Bannon]

mike how you launched the day in exquisite timing the action plan for the mass deportation coalition we've pushed it out everywhere talk to us about what the audience should be looking at and after they read the action plan what

[Mike Howell]

do they do yeah so go to massdeportation dot com you'll find one hundred page playbook there on how to get to at least one million deportations in twenty twenty six so that in the years to come all of the illegals can be deported from the united states it's about getting the system policies tactics and operations and logistics in place get the train moving down the tracks we're one billion is very doable this is informed by the expertise of people who have worn the badge led the agencies led serious operations like erik prince lawyers and advocates all across the country with tremendous grassroots support it is a rock solid plan and it proves that to not do it is a policy choice in and of itself it requires the trump administration to get over the political hurdle that the big donors don't want them to do and go to work sites and start enforcing the law let me just make a final point about why putting these things together is so important you know what the oversight projects found out right after trump won the white house this go around it said one of the very first things that democrat attorneys general did was band together for a collective program to sue on birthright citizenship they don't sit back and wait and watch or trust the plan they act they organize they push and even when they're in the minority they maintain momentum that's why we saw you know the thune plan to defund ice and cbp passed today or you know the president given its blessing it's because they push they organize they never give up that's why we formed the mass deportation coalition because the agenda was taking on water from the special interest the media they were landing the blows you had that axios report about you know james blair the white house saying don't say mass deportation and we just had saw we've seen enough and so we organized and put together the plan and now the american people can take a look at it we supported and know that the president's campaign promise this signature campaign promise is doable justified and necessary and maga still has his back to get it done lobbyists be damned

[Marco Rubio]

are

[Stephen K. Bannon]

you recommending that we make this the centerpiece of the midterm elections that this mass deportation action plan we just put it up there and say hey up or down vote and make this really the driving force the tip of the spear for the midterm elections it absolutely

[Mike Howell]

should be i mean it's no secret right now there are some issues of base motivation and primary elections are about base motivation with what's going on in foreign policy the economy we need to keep this coalition together and there is a large contingent of it and our polling shows eighty percent of trump voters want mass deportation executed they think it'll define his legacy and so if we want with all the headwinds that are we're against right now people to show up be animated we need to see delivery of on the mandate that's why we're doing it is to we don't want to see president trump impeached by hordes of democrats again we don't want to go through what what that looks like and so we need to get people motivated and you do that through fulfilling the promise for mass deportation

[Stephen K. Bannon]

mike word one more time i want people to go it's one hundred pages long we've pushed it out we're going to continue to push it out we're going to have other of your coalition members on the next couple of days to go through details about this but where

[Steve Bannon]

do people go right now on the

[Stephen K. Bannon]

opening day of you putting it out to go read it and think about

[Mike Howell]

it yeah mass deportation dot com sign up there if you're part of an organization we want you to join this thing is growing people are coming out of the woodworks to join it is going to be massive by the time you know we're just even a few more months in and we're on x at phase two deport that's the name of the coalition i'm at m howell tweets and the oversight project a member of of the coalition is that it's your gov a lot of coordinates there but a lot of action we don't sleep around here

[Stephen K. Bannon]

okay we're gonna get it up mike howell thank you great day to put it out fantastic mike davis want to thank you for joining us you were my co host this morning although we never made it to air because it was so i think

[Steve Bannon]

amazing for the audience to listen to

[Stephen K. Bannon]

the entire thing talk to me about your take john sauer i thought did a magnificent job give us your your best thoughts about this viceroy yes trump

[John Sauer]

solicitor general john sauer did a phenomenal job today he made a compelling case while why the fourteenth amendment does not provide birthright citizenship to illegal aliens just like it did not provide birthright citizenship to american indians and congress did that by statutes later on so i would say this if the supreme court follows the clear law here this is a very easy case it should be six to three saying that birthright citizenship is not for illegal aliens right if the supreme court follows the politics we could see a seven to two decision for birthright citizenship for one point five million chinese birth tourists and i'm i'm a little bit nervous it may be the latter

[Stephen K. Bannon]

mike gorsuch as you know i was on the committee the five man committee that offered this up to the president to review have a couple of picks and gorsuch was his guy from the very beginning you were obviously very close to justice gorsuch you led the confirmation fight and did everything talk to

[Steve Bannon]

me about him because he's i would

[Stephen K. Bannon]

say he's a guy that doesn't put the politics up i don't think but

[Steve Bannon]

he had some pretty he looked like

[Stephen K. Bannon]

he was not convinced i'm not a lawyer i'm certainly not a constitutional lawyer but just gorsuch i thought had some of those searing questions your thoughts about justice gorsuch and his interactions with john

[John Sauer]

sauer well i hope that all of these justices go through the briefs they go through the plain text of the fourteenth amendment and subsequent legislation and they look at the original public meaning and i think if they do that if they actually go through that exercise of textualism and originalism which is how they sold themselves to get the job i think that the answer is very clear here the fourteenth amendments we had the thirteenth fourteenth and fifteenth amendments the post civil war constitutional amendments the thirteenth amendment outlawed slavery the fourteenth amendment provide equal protection and due process to the freed slaves the fifteenth amendment provide voting rights to the freed male slaves that was extended to black women with the nineteenth amendment all women but including the black women with the nineteenth amendment as part of the fourteenth amendment we had the dred scott decision after the civil war and it was an abomination of a supreme court decision that said that the freed slaves do not get american citizenship so part of the fourteenth amendment included the birthright citizenship provision that all persons born in the united states number one you have to be born here and number two you have to be subject to the jurisdiction of the united states you have to have allegiance full allegiance to the united states and so as i was saying american indians did not have birthright citizenship under the fourteenth amendment congress had to provide it to them by statute so you have to ask this dispositive question to these textualists and originalists on the supreme court if american indians did not have birthright citizenship under the fourteenth amendment how the hell would illegal aliens and then you have to ask this this further question do you think we fought a civil war to give birthright citizenship to one point five million chinese birth tourists do we think that we should have over a million chinese nationals who have american citizenship and live in china and mail in their ballots from china into american elections and take social security and other welfare benefits back in beijing i don't think that's what the proponents of the fourth fourteenth amendment were trying to accomplish and i don't think that's what the public understood what the fourteenth amendment was trying to accomplish so i think that these supreme court justices should think long and hard about this decision because if they actually give birthright citizenship under the fourteenth amendment to one point five chinese nationals living in beijing they are going to destroy and i mean destroy the legitimacy of the supreme court

[Steve Bannon]

mike where do people

[Stephen K. Bannon]

go for article three in your social

[John Sauer]

[Unknown Political Analyst]

today start with a new timeline the president gave tonight among many of the things he said about the war in iran he said it will be done in two to three weeks what does that tell you

[Marco Rubio]

it tells me that president trump is trying to find a way to end this war unilaterally the problem he has is that he wants to end the war clearly at this point the iranians have a get a vote and their vote seems to be to continue it because they want to exact a price by stressing the world economy driving the price of oil up keeping the straits strait of hormos closed so the president seems to be in a sense unilaterally saying look we're going to wind down activities my guess is what he's doing is saying two to three weeks because that gives him enough enough time to pummel the iranians even more which is what his gulf state allies want saudi arabia the uae and then he it seems as though they're they're preparing for a strategy where they simply leave and maybe the strait of hormuz is still closed maybe it's not maybe they get an agreement but it's a way out it doesn't seem it strikes me as a rather bizarre situation because you would have the the the the strait of hormuz closed oil would still be extremely expensive but it appears that the white house is searching for a way out and as they have through this entire process they're sort of freelancing and throwing stuff up and seeing if it will work and that seems the new idea just quit and go home and after after a few more weeks of this pounding the iranian president

[Unknown Political Analyst]

today apparently said that iran might be willing to stop the fighting if they are not attacked again and that was in a conversation with a separate leader there how do you interpret messages coming from inside iran whether it be the president who may not have that much power right now to begin with or

[Unknown Foreign Policy Expert]

the foreign minister yeah exactly well i think that this is one of the things right we know i think from what rubio has said that the regime is fractured but what they're asking for is a guarantee that this won't happen again but the one thing that we have to remember is now that they've held the hostage the strait hostage they can go back and do this again at any time and i think no matter how this ends iran will be able to and will want to exercise some control over the strait and as the president said today it only takes a mine dropped there or a guy

[John Sauer]

shooting off a missile based on chinese media reports there are five hundred five hundred birth tourism companies in the people's republic of china whose business is to bring people here to give birth and return to to to that nation having

[Supreme Court Justice (possibly Alito or Scalia)]

said all that you do agree that that has no impact on the legal analysis before us i think it's i

[John Sauer]

quote what you justice scalia said in his hamdan dissent where they had where like their interpretation has these implications that could not possibly have been approved by the nineteenth century framers of this amendment i think that shows that they've made a mess their interpretation has made a mess in the provision well it certainly

[Supreme Court Justice (possibly Alito or Scalia)]

wasn't a problem in the nineteenth century

[John Sauer]

no but of course we're in a new world now as justice alito pointed out to where eight billion people are one plane ride away from having a child who's a us citizen well it's

[Supreme Court Justice (possibly Alito or Scalia)]

a new world it's the same constitution

[John Sauer]

it is and as justice scalia said i think in the case that justice alito was referring to you've got a constitutional provision that addresses certain evils and it should be extended to reasonably comparable evils he said that about statutory interpretation i think the same principle applies here and i think we quote that in

[Unknown Legal Analyst]

our brief let me ask you about nato you said that our nato allies have been disappointing specifically i know you're talking about spain great britain france even italy now and that after all of this is done we will reexamine this relationship and especially when it comes to we pay two thirds of the freight when it comes to nato defense and if it's just quote about us defending europe you said you know at this point how do we call that and we can't have our landing rights in european nations our allies at a time when we need them what good is that alliance and is the nato alliance at risk

[Marco Rubio]

sean i've been one of the strongest defenders of nato during my time as a united states senator because i found great value in it and it wasn't just about defending europe i said it also allowed us to have military bases in europe that allowed us to project power into different parts of the world when our national security was threatened if now we have reached a point where the nato alliance means that we can't use those bases that in fact that we can no longer use those bases to defend america's interests then nato is a one way street then nato is simply about us having troops in europe to defend europe but when we need their help not their help we're not asking them to conduct airstrikes when we need them to allow us to use their military bases their answer is no then why are we in nato you have to ask that question why do we have billions and billions of dollars hundreds of billions of dollars over the years trillions of dollars and all these american forces stationed in the region if we can only use in our time of need we're not going to be allowed to use those bases so i think there's no doubt unfortunately after this conflict is concluded we are going to have to reexamine that relationship we're going to have to reexamine the value of nato and that alliance for our country ultimately that's a decision for the president to make and he'll have to make it we're going to finish the job here as i said we're very very close to achieving our objectives on all of these things that i've outlined but i do think unfortunately we are going to have to reexamine whether or not this alliance that has served this country well for a while is still serving that purpose or has it now become a one way street where america is simply in a position to defend europe but when we need the help of our allies they're going to deny us basing rights and they're going to deny us overflight i think these are very legitimate questions that we need to be asking and this is going to have to be very carefully examined after this conflict is over you think

[Unknown Political Commentator]

donald trump is actually going to try to pull out of nato well it's

[Unknown Political Analyst]

not up to him it's up to senate so it's not something that is in the president's legal competency to remove the united states from that treaty the question is whether or not trump is seen as a reliable partner by nato allies would he actually come to the defense of a nato ally if they were attacked by russia or by someone else and increasingly nato leaders do not believe in the credibility of that commitment so i don't think that trump would leave nato but i think that nato is being eroded by president trump on

[Supreme Court Justice (possibly Alito or Scalia)]

a daily basis you obviously put a lot of weight on subject to the jurisdiction thereof but the examples you give to support that strike me as very quirky the stuff you have about unlawfully present is like roman law sources you're going to continually restrict who may lawfully be present more and more and you would say that would be incorporated into it even though you're telling us to apply the original meaning of eighteen sixty eight there are people who are subject to removal at any time if they are apprehended and they go through the proper procedures but they have in their minds made a permanent home here and have established roots and that raises a humanitarian problem it certainly wasn't a problem in the nineteenth century no but of

[John Sauer]

course we're in a new world now just alito pointed out to where eight billion people are one plane ride away from having a a child who's a u s citizen well it's a new

[Supreme Court Justice (possibly Alito or Scalia)]

world it's the same constitution the position

[Unknown Political Commentator]

you're taking now is a revisionist one

[Stephen K. Bannon]

with respect to a substantial part of

[Unknown Political Commentator]

our history as you heard the justices were skeptical even some of the most conservative justices so why is this the case the one that he would show up for you can argue it was a clear message to his base many of whom are feeling frustrated and abandoned don't worry i'm still here focusing on the big issue you voted for keeping america american in the way that you

see it the president going to the supreme court today is going to be read as just and talked about unfortunately as just another one of his stunts but to be very clear this is a president that thinks he is above all reproach this is a president that thought it was smart politically and a political advantage to him to go to the supreme court to stare the justices down in hopes that they would take that into consideration one could argue and rule in his favor but here if we could just step back i think that everybody's absolutely correct what the president is doing is trying to appeal to a very specific part of his base but to be very clear what has happened inside the current republican party apparatus is that things that used to be relegated to the fringe this idea that america is quote unquote uniquely for americans which translates to america is for foundational americans white people in this country right that is white supremacist ideology and what has happened under this not just under this second presidency of donald trump but i would argue since he came to rise in political power which predates him coming down that escalator which starts with him questioning the citizenship of the first black president of the united states of america barack obama this white supremacist ideology frankly is foundational to donald trump's political beliefs if we can argue that he holds any to be true the thing that has been consistent is this idea that some people in this country are in fact not foundational americans that some people in this country their citizenship deserves to be questioned and so this idea that this is just about immigrants in this country people who have maybe come to this country seeking asylum who have crossed the border illegally who are undocumented that is not what this is just

[Unknown Legal Expert]

about and i think what really threw me overall is that what many people expected would be a slam dunk reiteration of the eighteen ninety eight precedent and wong kim ark is now turned into a nail biter of a case really where folks cannot i mean if you look at legal experts talking online about this case you see everything from people saying well i think it'll still be nine zero or it should be nine zero but i'm not sure how we get there but really you see a larger consensus around people saying i think the administration probably will lose but i can't guarantee you that it will and we could have a much closer majority than people would expect i can count four reliable votes for the acluz position and i can't yet tell you who i think the fifth or sixth or

[Unknown Political Commentator]

seventh will be do you think this is bigger than donald trump this is about trumpism and if you go back to the current president of the heritage foundation kevin roberts when he came on our network when we interviewed him on our show we asked him was this about donald trump or is this bigger and he said that project twenty twenty five and their entire movement was about instilling trumpism in the united states government throughout everything they do so that it far outlasts donald trump whenever he has gone and so i think that there are real questions to ask jd vance to ask marco rubio to ask any elected republican with current or would be elected republican in this country if they are taking up the mantle of the great replacement theory which is this idea that immigrants in this country are coming in to replace white people and that democrats are ushering them in to do that if they are taking up the mantle of birtherism in this country if it is the republican party platform that they are questioning the citizenship of anybody whose lineage doesn't go back to the graves if you will which to me is a very slippery slope because if we want to get into my lineage i think it's a little iffy

[Tracy Anthony]

[Steve Bannon]

i guess an hour we're going to

[Stephen K. Bannon]

actually have a launch of things around time i think it was six twenty four pm eastern daylight time what is actually going to happen ma' am

[Tracy Anthony]

yeah you know if you would have asked me two hours ago it was raining it still was super cloudy i was gonna say it probably wouldn't happen tonight but it cleared out very quickly now we have kind of those ideal weather conditions for the launch to continue to take place so the skies are clear the wind's a little breezy but but as long as those wind gusts stay under about forty three miles per hour at the surface we should be in the clear now the only other thing that could defer the launch is technology problems but i'm staying up to date with the latest updates it looks like we're still ago and steve we're at jetty park this is a campground near kennedy space center and it is jam packed full so no reservations no one could get in last minute and a lot of people here have come from all over the country i'm talking maine wisconsin other people from colorado so this is a very cool experience the overall theme is that this is a historic and very patriotic launch

[Stephen K. Bannon]

this this hasn't gotten a lot of press up until now and now in the last forty eight hours people are very focused on this this is extraordinarily dangerous for these astronauts can you talk to us just what what's going to happen in the countdown between now and the time it goes off and i take it it's still approximately six twenty four pm in about an hour

[Tracy Anthony]

yeah that's what it looks like right now and weather conditions should be cooperating and you know the crew they've been suited up since ten am so they've been going through you know technology procedures and other safety procedures to make sure that this thing is safe and cleared to launch tonight now if for any reason it does get canceled this evening they will try again tomorrow so we have about six consecutive days where they can push the launch if it doesn't happen though by i think it's next monday they will push it into may so i know a lot of people here extended their trip or changed their plan plans to make sure that they could be here so i know a lot of people keeping their fingers crossed it should go tonight and i think it will too now

[Stephen K. Bannon]

immigration a national issue for this upcoming midterm what do you think we also make it about voter integrity we know that that is another basic plank of the maga movement what do you think about that sir well that is you

[Unknown]

know when i'm running for governor in minnesota we did a poll last august and election our election integrity was number three in minnesota of concerns that's not that's moved up quite a bit with all the other concerns everybody but you know it's a big thing when they keep attacking attacking us attacking the president for wanting to get a secure election steve i just found out today i've been working with arctic frost everybody this is the code name for operation done against mypillow by our own government we found out today by lawyers we have working on that it's still going on there were banks involved with this where they were not honoring buying stuff from my pillow you can't make this up everybody this has been the biggest attack on a company in the history of the world it's a miracle mypillow's here still here steve that's been going on

[Stephen K. Bannon]

for a long time hang on hang on hang on but hang on tell me well hang on the banks were doing what arctic frost i know the banks were involved in this but they

[Steve Bannon]

were they were hurting your business by

[Stephen K. Bannon]

making sure they didn't they wouldn't commit

[Steve Bannon]

to pay for certain things they would

[Unknown]

not honor people's cards as you went to buy my pillow products we went back a long way after we found out about this so if you ever went to buy something from mypillow everybody if you're watching and you got a card that your bank said that they flagged it and they wouldn't honor it for mypillow this was arctic frost we're just finding this out steve today i've been on the phone for three hours with lawyers this is disgusting these are big name banks that were that we're taking all of a sudden my pillow would come through and it would flag it for fraud or flag it for declining it even though the customer had money this is disgusting and we're we're not letting up i mean i'm getting to the bottom of it and but it cost my pillow millions upon millions of dollars believe already up now arctic frost we have a third party look at it it's over five hundred million dollars that arctic frost has cost my pillow since january of twenty twenty two the biggest most attacked company in history why everybody because i want to secure our elections and that's the only reason that i back our great president donald trump let's not forget that

[Steve Bannon]

another attempt

[Stephen K. Bannon]

to put you guys in bankruptcy i mean it's despicable it's disgusting talk to me about a deal let's talk about

[Steve Bannon]

something good let's talk about something upbeat

[Unknown]

let's talk about it so with all the cancellations you guys know we've been fighting back for five years and today is no different than any other day we put our giza dream sheets our flagship product the best sheets in history our president's favorite product by the way we put them on sale the lowest price ever for the queen and king queen size as you know are well over one hundred fifty dollars sixty nine point nine nine king size seventy nine point nine nine we did this it's a war room exclusive we did this we just moved into our new factory you guys well there's nothing like a ten year warranty made with long staple cotton the best cotton in the world these are there's no feel like it's got a satin weave i helped design them back in the day i said well what what makes a good sheet and we went piece by piece it took months to develop and they've been one of our flagship bestselling products in history so promo code war room you guys go to mypillow dot com war room and there you're gonna see the first product there this is a war room exclusive queen size king size queen size sixty nine point nine eight king size seventy nine point nine eight and there you're gonna see right next to that the factory we brought we had to bring some stuff over from the other factory that we still have left we're closing that out eighty percent off to the war room posse you guys did great and we got everything moved now into our new factory and remember everybody the woke company bought that factory and they didn't want to renew our lease this has been an ongoing attack but we keep fighting back and so do you guys fourteen ninety eight we left our pillows that we make in house on sale for fourteen ninety eight another war room exclusive so you guys call eight hundred eight seven three ten sixty two it was quite a shock today my call center reps actually we actually found out through them too that this has been going on with these banks for a long time use promo code war room in spite of all the attacks and get those big savings today promo code war room

[Stephen K. Bannon]

you're coming through stronger than ever but people have to understand what they've done to destroy you because you were the one that sat there and said hey the twenty twenty election stolen and here's how it was stolen and we got to set this thing right president trump and everybody's fighting to do this but you can tell how savage they are even get the banks on it mike lindell thank you so much brother i'll talk to you during the president's speech and and see you tomorrow mike runner for governor now minnesota president trump very this is the first time i mean he's talked to the nation before in various aspects as we've been covering this is the first time he's actually gone and formally addressed the nation tonight and go to the broadcast companies which are very hesitant about giving time i mean they'll do has to be a time of kind of a national importance and this is tonight there's no doubt about that i think the president's just going to lay out in a in a very succinct way what the objectives were what he's accomplished what he thinks we still have to do to to accomplish and i do believe he's going to talk about this nato ally situation where as i think marco said it very well it's not simply the fact they haven't been there for us in supporting us is that they actually restricted our ability to use our own forces that happen to be stationed in europe particularly now spain was a bilateral deal with spain but england the bases france was very difficult italy was very difficult i mean it's just we don't need to put up with this nonsense i think the president's going to address that tonight too i also would say the only reason people say he has to go back to the senate they slipped into a omnibus bill years ago the president had to go back to him to get out of nato i think that's unconstitutional and i think that will be challenged so the president can make a decision i think on nato as he wants to make it also the turbulence in capital markets throughout the world particularly in the commodities market of oil makes it now more than ever the end of the dollar empire birchgold dot com comma promo code bannon talk to philip patrick and the team they will take as much time as you want no obligation everything is free when you talk to them

[Stephen K. Bannon]

going to give a great report tonight we're going to have a space launch in a moment send folks to the moon what do you got for us

[Trevor Comstock]

yeah always great to see you steve so i did want to just give a quick reminder tonight is the last day of our tallow moisturizer sale or at least it ends tonight so if you did want to take advantage of it you can still use code tallow at checkout for fifteen off any one time order which of course will work on the tallow moisturizer and then the moisturizing and healing bundle which includes the tallow and the sacred healing salve but of course you know if you do want to compare it to you know other skin creams on the market the issues typically with those is that they're usually just full synthetic ingredients and also things like alcohols and fragrances and other cheap fillers that can unfortunately damage the skin barrier over time so they may be somewhat effective in their own right but most of them unfortunately just contain a ton of you know unnatural chemicals and ingredients that are also usually just mass produced with overall questionable quality so in turn it's kind of why we essentially created the product in the first place but our formulas formula is just clean and simple it doesn't contain any artificial junk and and again the moisturizer is made with the two ingredients which is the one hundred american grass fed and finished beef tallow and then we pair it with the ramanuka honey from new zealand i always always like to mention too that each jar is handmade so we have our small team in idaho producing every jar so we really don't cut any corners when it comes to overall quality and we always you know promise to source the highest grade ingredients possible and like i mentioned too you know it's always been flying off the shelf we just restocked which is good so we have a good supply we won't run out but it's just amazing for overall you know daily hydration if you have any irritated skin or things like redness or seborrhea helps tame that quite a bit just to due to the anti inflammatory properties so i definitely encourage people to check it out there's been some amazing reviews that people have posted with healing a lot of skin conditions and just having overall success

[Stephen K. Bannon]

with it where where two two two things where do they go to see it right now see the reviews and get in contact with you yeah you
