This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people. You're just not going to 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 soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience. Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose? If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved. War ROOM here's your host, Stephen K. Banner. Monday 18th May year of our Lord 20276 trying to get Scott Pressler for this afternoon. The persistence he's down in Texas I think starting today. Early voting starts today. A great crusade for the grassroots, a massive grassroots effort of the established order of Mitch McConnell and against the great attorney general that has just been such a hero. And Ken Paxton came on open the show today and opened the week and kicked this off going to go to Dorothy Moon in a minute in Idaho just to let you know I'm a, I'm a, I'm a compare and contrast New York City, Naomi Wolf and others and kind of the educational complex also what's happening in Idaho because this is a national problem. You heard from ken about the H1B visas, the the birthright citizen Baby Mills, all of it in Texas that he's fighting trying to combat. Naomi Wolf, you've had some pretty how do I say this coming in hot as Boris used to say on Twitter in regarding the situation of H1B visas, the student visas, the I guess the OPT program that Rosemary Jenks talks about all the time that leads right into the work permits for HB one president the other day was talking about $500,000 gave that interview the other day talking about the to Brent baer about the 500,000 foreign students. What is your take on this ma'?
B
Am?
C
Yeah, I'm really shocked at what I've learned just in the last day or two. I was a professor at suny, which is the state university system in New York some years ago and my students, Steve struggled so hard. My American students and these were many children of new immigrants but they were legal and others were American born and they were so broke. Of course they were trying to get an education. They worked so hard. Many of them worked two jobs. They Commuted long distances because they couldn't afford to live on campus, many of them, but they struggled and did their best. I was on 34th street yesterday, and I was observing all of these crowds of graduates from some institution. I concluded it was CUNY just milling around. And literally 99% of them were with their families, speaking their language of origin. And it was either Chinese, Pakistani, or Arab and Arabic. And I was also aware of recently being on a train and overhearing a young man from some Muslim country sharing with a friend with a lot of excitement, like, you won't believe it, they pay you to go to school here. And so I looked into it and I'm absolutely stunned. Cuny, which is the City University of New York system, you know, also an extremely good system. It's educated generations of legal immigrants, including people who went on to do a great deal for the country, but it's unrecognizable now. They don't just give resources to undocumented kids who are going to school, but they affirmatively have, like, campus liaisons for undocumented students who are getting a CUNY education. I want to stress, this is our tax dollars in New York. You know, this is supposed to be for New York's kids, right? American kids to get an affordable or almost free education. But American kids don't get the housing benefit, the, the health benefit, the campus liaison, and unbelievable other resources. And I was astonished to find that there's a link, a set of links on the CUNY website that take you to health resources, legal resources, advocates, even people who will tell you how to avoid getting entangled with ice. I did not know and had no idea that you can get a CUNY education even if you're undocumented. Just with going to high school for two years as an undocumented student, or not even doing that, just taking the ged. So no wonder that young man on the train was so excited. But the bottom line is these are places that American kids can't afford to take because they're not getting the free housing, the food support, the free medical care. They have to work in order to feed themselves, and they are not able to go to school with all these supports. No wonder the graduates that I saw were literally 99, you know, from outside the country. Yeah, it's, it's.
A
But hang on. This, this, this is a, A legendary. I mean, before it was ccny, I mean, this was legendary. It was called the Harvard of the working class. Back Post World War II, in the 40s and 50s and 60s, it was a legendary place of people who were smart enough to get into Harvard but couldn't afford it to the Ivy Leagues. It was really a kind of a working class Ivy League school. The education there was second to none. Also, I think it's formed by the general. I think it's Burns. There's a statute for the general that at Gettysburg stood in the breach. He was the. The great Civil War. I think he was a colonel at the time. He came back and I think he founded CCNY post Civil War. And he was the guy that stood in the breach at the angle right there where Pickett's Charge came and made the thing. This guy's the one that. And this is the type of guy he was. In order to stop Pickett's charge. Of course, a couple of three of the Union guys were sitting there and he got 10,000 screaming banshees coming across with these Confederate battle flags. A couple of them thought, maybe if I pull back to, to Emmitsburg, this will work out. He pulled his pistol out and said, hey, I'm going to shoot you or they're going to shoot you. Take a choice. Let's get back up to the wall. This is the type of person that this. No, this is the type of hero. And he did this because he understood that New York was exploding at the time and you needed a quality place. He had had a quality education. And CCNY was legendary. You got the undocumented side, but I want to go because the aggressive nature of the Arabic, you know, the Arab, Chinese, all of it, they're aggressively getting foreign students in whose government or whatever, pay the freight. But they also get all these, these freebies. These schools have become unrecognizable. And this was one that was built for working class people in New York City, ma'.
D
Am.
B
No, it was.
C
I mean, you've. You've beautifully encapsulated the historical nature of the CUNY system and, you know, complemented by the SUNY system. It's. It's amazing. Like, I feel so bad because I've run into so many American, you know, I hate to mention race, but white or, you know, non white American kids who are desperate to get a college education. And I say, hey, there's a program in New York State where you can get a free or very low cost education, the Excelsior program, and, you know, go do it. And they look into it and some manage and others are like, I can't afford the housing. I can't afford. You know, where am I going to get food? Money from if I'm a full time student and they just get overwhelmed and discouraged. Well, these non US kids who are not working class Americans trying to be upwardly mobile, which is the promise of this country to Americans, that if you work hard, the resources will be there for you. These kids from other cultures, some of which are very hostile to us, don't have to worry about that. They get it all for free. And also, Steve, the other thing that really upsets me, you know, again, as a former professor, thinking about the message that all the students are getting, it's such a message of unfairness, but it's also a message of illegality that young, 18, 19, 20 year old students, American and illegals are getting. Because you know, you go to the website for CUNY and it says, do I need a Social Security number?
D
No.
C
You know, can I be undocumented? Yes. You know, CUNY welcomes undocumented work. You know, undocumented students. I mean literally the language is so yes, all students, regardless of immigration status, can apply and attend cuny. You will not be discriminated against from attending CUNY based on your immigration status. Chancellor Felix Matos Rodriguez has consistently highlighted the importance of welcoming undocumented students to our campus. Well, quite apart from the burden that that puts on hardworking New Yorkers whose tax dollars are sucked dry by these institutions and then the resources are available for their own children. And this is also such a message from the President of American law doesn't matter. American, you know, American voters, choices don't matter. Not only do you have to tolerate people who are breaking US law on the campus, you have affirmatively to welcome them. The Chancellor says so. It's a disgusting message about the rule of law. It just basically says, you know, American laws are meaningless. American democracy is meaningless. American governance is meaningless. Americans, tax dollars, just set a match to them. You know, watch it burn up and scamper off with your BA or your, you know, graduate degree, because these universities have graduate degrees. Go become an engineer, go become a doctor. You know, good for you. You know, we funded the whole thing. And then five or ten years down the road, what you're going to see is a complete, and this is not a racist thing to say, but it is definitely an America first thing to say. You're going to see a complete replacement of the professional classes by young people from other countries who might have gotten here illegally, who are completely trained, supported, fed, you know, cared for medically during their college years by your tax dollars. And your own kid will be wiped
A
out by AI you, you, you warned about this during the race, Madame. You were out in the, in the, in the, in Queens and in Brooklyn, saying, in Bronx, saying that there are a young generation of Republicans out here, but they need support. They, they've got, they've got a fiery message to counter what Mandami stands for. They can canvas, they can do these things, you know, literally, let's say close up to a year. Because you started warning about this in the summer of, I think was the summer of last year when you would come on the show. What's your assessment of Mandami, how it's rolling and the people that combated that in the various boroughs that did not get elected.
C
Yeah. Well, Steve, thanks for remembering and bringing that up. I wish many, many more Republican leaders and leaders across, you know, party lines would notice how serious the situation is in New York. And I, I did try to warn everyone that electing Mamdani wasn't just going to be damaging to America's most important city, it was going to damage the country as a whole. And that's exactly what we're seeing. It's moving faster than anyone could have imagined. I don't know if, if people are not affirmatively following hate crimes and violence in New York, I recommend that you do so, if only on X, because legacy media really isn't covering this. But every day, every week, there are hate crimes that are really empowered against Jewish communities in New York. Over the weekend, I believe a group of Muslim men stood outside a Jewish girls school to pray. I can't tell you how many mosques there are in New York. I've attended them in. You can go inside and pray. You don't have to stand in a scary way illegally because you can't block the sidewalk legally in New York. But things like that are happening all the time. People are getting beaten, beaten on the subway if they look Jewish people being prevented by pro Palestinian screaming rioters from entering synagogues, entering cultural events if they're Jewish. And it's really scary. And Ramadiwaji, the first lady of New York has recently been reported to have had even more hateful posts, this one on Spotify about hating Israel. Greedy Jews. You know, she earlier posted that October 7 claims that Jewish women were raped, Israeli women were raped is a hoax. I mean, it's. The level of hatred toward, you know, almost a million people in New York coming from the top is, is overwhelming and very, very frightening. But of course, it's not just Jews. We've had the Mamdani stand outside the private Residence of a wealthy entrepreneur in New York who's very philanthropic and kind of single him out as someone who's going to be taxed. Hooray in a brand new way. But this is such a dangerous thing to do by the state. For any representative of any, any government in America to stand outside someone's private home, it's doxing them. It's dangerous for them. You know, people get shot on the street if they're targeted by crazy people. So he's thinking about moving to Florida and moving, you know, billions of dollars in, in jobs and philanthropy to Florida. This is, you know, people are, are flooding Westchester because of tax.
A
Just hang on for one second. I'll hold you. They got Dorothy Mooney from Idaho, one of the leaders up there of the MAGA movement and the Republican Party, John Solomon also. Stick around. You're in the woo. Do you owe back taxes or you haven't filed your taxes in years? Now is the time to resolve your tax matters. With the national conversation around abolishing the income tax, the IRS is fighting back and proving it's here to stay by becoming more aggressive than ever before. They're sending out more collection notices, filing more tax liens, and collecting billions more in recent years. If you owe, the IRS can garnish your wages, levy your bank accounts, seize your retirement, and even your home if you owe or haven't filed. It's not a question of if the IRS will act.

B A n, n o n 989-898 get to talk to Philip Patrick and the team today about the ultimate guy for investing gold and precious metals in the age of Trump. Not the era of Trump, the age of Trump. Talk to him. If you are coming this now and you have not talked to Birch Gold before or not used Birch Gold or made a purchase of physical gold, talk to Philip Patrick. They got a special until May 29th. That's next week. It stops then. You can potentially get a rebate of up to $10,000 with qualifying purchases. Talk to Philip Patrick. What does that all mean? Talk to the guys at the team at Birchgold today. Dorothy Moon from Idaho, Naomi Wolf. I'm gonna get back to her in a second about New York City, this mess there. John Solomon joins us. John, I think I've got the President Trump just tweeted out interesting topic on, on Iran. If I can find this and pull it up, I can't. I'll get to in a second. But he essentially was saying that if the Iranians came out today, the Persians came out, they surrendered, they laid down their weapons, they put the white flag up, they signed a document of unconditional surrender that the, that the New York Times, the fake news, New York Times, cnn and what he called I think is great, the China Wall street journal. Yes, Mr. President, they're pro China. Let's not have them suck you into anything bad. On the ccp, he said they're those groups would still not be satisfied and said we're losing the war. Now, General Jack Keane, we did this in the first hour with Bollinger Cortez. General Jack Keane was on Fox today going through various kinetic alternatives. The president huddled with his National Security advisors over the weekend is supposedly going to have a very important meeting in the Situation Room tomorrow to go through alternatives. John Solomon, you always got the inside scoop. Your thoughts on all this, sir?
D
Yeah, Well, I think first off, he's right. The legacy media have been so pro Iran and so pro China for a long time. They hailed bad agreements, failed to recognize the advancement of Iran's nuclear program for years and misled the American people, failed to recognize the aggression of China. So I think the president's assessment of the legacy media is pretty spot on. I mean, you can literally go back and look at the coverage of COVID and we were calling claims that the Wuhan lab had a lab leak racist when in fact it was absolutely accurate. And so his beef with the legacy media is the same beef the American people have. They've been misled for about 10 years nonstop. And I think he scores a lot of points with that. And there's a lot of nodding heads in America saying, yeah, we agree with you, Mr. President. As for the Iran options, I think he could look to take actions that weaken Iran's ability to patrol the Strait of Hormuz. I think that's probably the most likely scenario. Get rid of some of those three, 400 little nagging gunboats, that they can cause a little bit of trouble. They really don't have a lot of significant hardware left for long range attacks. They've got a few here and there which we can continue to dust up, but they're big. Their big menace is the Strait of Hormuzza. I think they're looking at optionality there. They're looking at more decapitation strikes. Another option is simply to say, hey, we won and we'll keep a close eye and if you do anything, we'll attack you again and leave Iran in a state of uncertainty, which is, maybe we'll get attacked, maybe we won't, we won't, they'll never know. And I think that that doubt might be a form of deterrence or detente as well. So I think the President's going to look at lots of different options, but I think he'll come up with something later this week. Meanwhile, Cuba will become a bigger focus this week with the indictment of Raul Castro. I think it will be unsealed on Wednesday. That's my understanding that'll be an epic moment and an opportunity for those on the island who've long wanted freedom to take another crack at trying to force that issue.
A
Hang on a second. So for conservatives that have been anti communist for a long time, this was a dream to get his brother indicted about an American court. Just get the audience up to speed. How all of a sudden we got Raul Castro gonna be indicted in a federal court in the United States of America. How did we get there?
D
It happened with Donald Trump's crackdown at the border. It turns out that once we started enforcing the border again, we discovered that a guy named Pardo Rodriguez, who was a pilot in the Cuban Air Force and who is believed to have been involved in the incident that shot down two innocent American civilian humanitarian flights back in 1996. One of those moments where Bill Clinton proved to be feckless, did not respond despite a clear murder of American civilians who were just on a humanitarian mission. That's all they were doing. They got shot out of the sky. Bill Clinton didn't respond appropriately. And for years, every President would kick the can down the road. We had overwhelming intelligence, including admissions by Fidel Castro that he and his brother ordered the shooting down of innocent Americans, but we did nothing. Well, the case gets dusted off because President Trump and his immigration team intercept this Cuban pilot who, by the way, Joe Biden led into the country. Joe Biden led into the country a man who was in the Cuban air force for the Communist government of Cuba. And that arrest, that detention, led to a significant redevelopment of the case. New evidence, new proof that Raul Castro was involved. And we expect this week, Raul Castro, at the age of 94, he'll be one of the oldest indictees in American history, will be charged with the murders in a conspiracy to murder Americans and to shoot down these two planes all the way back in 1996.
A
Is this. You know, you had the situation in Venezuela that they had legal issues and legal problems and had broken laws in the United States, multiple laws. And in the middle of the night, Special forces went down, extracted the leaders, and next thing you know, they're in. They're in the Brooklyn Detention center, going to federal court. With this indictment that gets unsealed on Thursday, Wednesday or Thursday of this week, would that give. Would that give President Trump, his administration, the ability to send special forces in and extract Raul Castro and his colleagues?
D
Sir, if I were him, I'd be sleeping with one eye open, because we've already done it once with incredible skill, and we intend to get justice before he passes. And I think that this is a big moment. Whether we will do it, we'll have to wait and see. Cuba is a tricky place to penetrate because it's surrounded by water. So it's not the easiest place in the world to penetrate. But the first aquarium will be an extradition request. The second, we'll see what the Cuban people do in Cuba. Maybe they've had enough of these Communists. Maybe this is that reckoning moment where they decide they want a new direction. And that opens the door. Ironically, Raul Castro's grandson has been relatively friendly with this administration. If I understand correctly, he has some contact there. He is a much more Western friendly facing Cuban. And so we'd have to look and see. Could you pull off another Venezuela in Cuba? That would be epic for the Cuban Americans who've long wanted their island to be free. And can you imagine Venezuela and Cuba being states 51 and 52 long before the Democrats get a chance to bring in Puerto Rico and the District of Columbia? So I think Donald Trump's playing offense. The first thing is to see if this indictment gets unsealed. And then I think after that, a significant moment to watch how the Cuban people react.
A
John Solomon, where do people go? You follow us at 6 tonight. It should be, I think for our fabric o' clock show. It's going to be a little bit from the White House on this health care affordability, which we're looking forward to. Eric Bolling, myself, where do people go to get all your content on? Just the news, sir.
D
Yeah, just the news.com Jay Solomon reports on all platforms, social media platforms.
A
Thank you, brother. Talk to you after the show. I think there's a lot happening this week, voter integrity, election fraud, all of it. A lot of things deep state, a lot coming together. John Solomon, thank you, sir. Appreciate you. Naomi Wolf, let me turn here a minute. I thought his the mainstream media, the little they do cover, the New York Post does a good job, but the little that the New York Times and others cover, I thought Mamdani's polling was like 2/3 of the people think he's the second coming, ma'.
D
Am.
C
Well, I'm not aware of that, but there are a lot of problems with the polling groups that were used to reflect public opinion in the Mamdani campaign. They're actually based in Brazil. The ones that I've seen, I think we look to this day, the Board of Elections has refused to do what's mandated by New York state law, Steve, which is a 3% paper ballot hand recount. So no one knows for sure to this day if Zoran Mamdani was elected to be mayor of New York. Both of I saw both of my city council candidate friends over the weekend, Louis Quiero and Athena Clark, and neither of them ever received a formal letter from the Board of Elections confirming that they had lost their elections. We, we just don't know. It's a complete black box here in New York in terms of voter integrity and checking the vote. But all that being said, he's in power and, you know, the question you asked over the break, why isn't this national news, what he's doing to New York? I think that, you know, has to be addressed immediately. And, you know, even as we hopefully get some legal help somewhere because no lawyer is willing to pick this up in my experience. Yet in demanding that 3% paper ballot hand count, the abuse of New York citizens, the, the, the policies that are driving wealth and jobs out of the city at breakneck paces, the targeting of individuals in New York, which is a real 1932, 1933 German tactic. Right. It's not getting national media attention. And this is a national story because it's not going to stop here. I think. You know, as always, this is a test case, Steve. And if they've seen that a Marxist, you know, Islamist red green candidate now mayor can target individuals and target individual groups of people of a certain faith in an American city, they'll just roll it out in Seattle and in Detroit and in Boston.
A
Why would they not in Texas? They're trying to do it there. Naomi, what's your social media website? Where do people go to get all your content? Ma', am, on this topic, Right.
C

You're going to have these problems, yada yada yada, but if you go out to places that are hardcore maga, you're not going to have that problem. And you know, like Idaho, Idaho I think may be the most MAGA state of all. Dorothy Moon, you're running the Republican party out there, so you don't have any Problems in Idaho. Right. It's pure maga. You're running by policies of President Trump. Everything's fine, ma'. Am.
B
What you think it would be, Steve? But I go home for a week and a half, get a little vacay in, get caught up on spring chores, and then I come. I'm coming back into the office here yesterday, and I'm looking at all of these flyers that have been submitted by local legislative candidates of endorsements from everybody in the Capitol. Pretty much. I'm kind of shocked that it's. I've never seen anything like this. We have a lot of the establishment that are really trying to keep control of this state. And I think I've made it very clear for the past almost four years now that I've been chair of this party. We work for the grassroots and nobody else. We work for the people of Idaho, and they don't like it. And I am shocked.
A
But hang on, hang on. I just want to make sure people understand this. I think your primary tomorrow. They're trying to fool the grassroots into having the grassroots believe that they support MAGA policies. You're saying at the time the establishment supports the exact opposite, but they understand they have to convince the basic voters and the grassroots that they're actually on their side or they're not going to get reelected. So they're using these deceptive tactics to do that.
B
Yes. In fact, it's really sad because you remember I was on a couple of months ago with you on War Room and talking about the immigration bills that we were trying to move through the legislation, and these were also resolutions passed by the grassroots. This is also the American worst policies of our president and what, you know, the people of the United States want. Immigration is the biggest issue. And these bills, one was just to pass e verify, just to make sure that your employees are legally here. The other one was certain requirements for employers to verify, you know, not only the lawful status, but also, you know, you prohibit them from hiring these folks. These two bills got through the House and then they went over into the Senate. And that's what I talked about last time that the senator. Steve, I'm sorry, Jim Guthrie, he held them in a drawer and he held them in a drawer and for a long time. So they never got heard. Sadly, a lot of the people who voted to not support these in the House are now being endorsed by the governor, lieutenant governor, state controller, secretary of state, our chief election officer, and our superintendent of Public Instruction. I don't endorse this chair of the party. Don't believe me. I would like to, but I don't. I am really surprised at how many people they have endorsed who actually voted against. Here it is everybody in Orange. These are the people that, that they're, that they're endorsing and it's really, to me, unacceptable.
D
So.
A
And these people they're endorsing have actually not just opposed these policies, but actually voted against the immigration policies of maga, ma'. Am.
B
Yes, yes, they have. But you've got to remember Idaho is a big dairy and ag state. We do have a lot of ag. We have sugar beets, we have, you know, barley. We have all kinds of agricultural going on. However, there's a process and for too long, Idaho, Idahoans in these professions have kicked the can down the road and sadly, let's start working on a path forward to remove some of these folks. We actually had one legislator who hired an illegal who had been charged with some assault. And you can't make this up. And of course, that's one of the legislators that is being endorsed by our Trump endorsed gubernatorial candidate.
A
What you're saying the pre. Did the president endorse one of these establishment guys? I mean, because he gets a lot of bad information on some of, some of these people. This is one of the fights we got in Texas. There was a, a rumor that he was going to his political people were saying he got endorsed corner. And of course the grassroots are in a firefight down there against the McConnell Thune, you know, leadership in the Senate, which Corny, kind of is a manifestation of what's happening in Idaho.
B
Well, Governor Brad Little got the endorsement from Trump a few months ago and is a surprise. You know, I think everybody, no one thought that Trump was going to be endorsing as many people as he has. But yes, he did, because we had a couple of really good bills that got passed thanks to the legislature who brought forward the Idaho Medical Freedom Act. And this bill would make sure that no one can stick a needle in your arm or cover your face with a mask. In fact, this is the first state and with the help of Trump and Also Robert Kennedy Jr. We got that one to the governor's desk and he signed it. And now there are other states that are modeling that piece of legislation passed here in Idaho, which is, that is maga. That is definitely what Republicans want. And then we passed a school choice bill. And this school choice bill actually gives parents control over their children's education to where they get a tax credit, not a voucher, to do what's best for their kids. And this one again got put through and we have President Trump who made some phone calls and you know, they talked about it with the governor and it actually got a signature and it is law. So we have a great school choice program, we have a great medical freedom program. And I will tell you, in the past four years, I have never seen so much good legislation come through which definitely align with America first policies. But now we see, I'm seeing all of these congressional office, I mean, excuse me, constitutional officers endorsing candidates that don't hold true to the America first policies.
A
So what is your, you're the chairman of the party, you got a primary coming up. What is your give us the call to action. What is your recommendation?
B
Well, the primary is tomorrow, Tomorrow, Tuesday the 19th from 8 to 8pm Any if you guys know anybody in Idaho, you can go to there's a lot of different voter guides. The Kootenay County Republican Central Committee, they're duking it out with these north Idaho Republicans. Most of them are Democrats and they're fine to keep intact. If you know anybody in north Idaho, go look at Kootenay County's recommendations. We do have a voter guide on our idgop.org if they have submitted a questionnaire, that information is there. We don't, we, I don't endorse, we do not endorse as a party. But you can go to all of the little central committees all around this state in all of our legislative districts and counties and see who they endorse. And there's our voter guide right there. Yes. So please go on there to look to see who you need to vote for. But I'm telling you, a lot of these cards that have come out that I've got a stack, stack of cards in my little mailbox in Custer county, rural Idaho. There's 40 of them here, 40 cards. And I'm not the only one. People are so sick of these informational cards being sent out by the packs. A lot of out of state PACs are trying to influence our election here. And I'll tell you, Steve, what's really horrible. We're probably going to have this abortion initiative on the ballot in November to allow nine months abortions. And you know, we can't let our guard down every day the left is coming after Idaho, coming after our babies. And you know, we need to rally the troops because whatever happens after the election tomorrow, I think we're going to know where the fights are at. And we can't let Idaho fall. Like you said we're the most MAGA state. We're supposed to be the ruby red state. And from what I'm seeing, there's a lot of people in our capitol building that are trying to undermine that.
A
Ma', am, one more time. Where do they go? What's your social media? Because you are a MAGA fighter extraordinaire.
B
Thank you. IDGOP.org Go to Idaho.org and we're on Facebook. We're on Instagram, we're on x, we're on TikTok. We're everywhere. We're everywhere.

B
Thank you. Hope to see you soon.

Steve, head of that Idaho GOP in the fight up there. You know, you notice that these states like Oklahoma and Idaho to the most MAGA red estates. And what are the folks in Oklahoma doing? They're having to fight the invasion of the Sharia law and the, in the Muslim centers and all that with very little backup from their state politicians. You got Idaho, the same thing. It's the biggest fights. Look in Texas, this heroic stand by the grassroots in Texas and the, the folks of Patriot Mobile and all these great organizations down there did such a magnificent job on, on Prop 10 on the prohibiting Sharia law in the state of Texas. And it kind of fired up the, the campaign of the, of the Attorney General Ken Paxton. You see this huge fight down there against the Bush element and the rear guard action of the bush element and McConnell. It's kind of conversion down there with Cornyn. It's the worst of both worlds. But you have to ask yourself a question. $150 million. $150 million spent essentially to destroy Ken Paxton, but at the same time to destroy the power and the rising power of the grassroots movement in Texas. This is how much they fear. It's not about one vote. It's not about one vote in the Senate. There's a deeper and nastier and uglier fight going on in Texas. In Texas, it is. Destroyed Paxton, but just destroy Paxton as a, as a champion of the grassroots. Remember, Paxton is the guy that took out the, the idiot, the idiot grandson of, of what, 41 of, of Bush, the Bush family down there. Corrupt, incompetent. One of the worst elements of this, this debacle we have with the Chinese Communist Party brought to you by the Bush presidency. I shouldn't say that Clinton was bad, but the Bush 41 was a disaster and and their grandson was destroyed by Ken Paxton in a race a couple years ago for attorney general and they haven't forgotten $150 million. So the biggest fight you've got in the grassroots is really against Republican establishment, not against the radical left. Not yet. That day's all coming short. Commercial break we're going to turn in the War room. Just a moment. If you're 65 or already on Medicare, listen up, folks, and grab a pen, maybe even a number two pencil, call 845-war- room.

You know something about on June 1st, right. The great, the great Tina Peters is going to be free, her sentence commuted. And man, what a firestorm of the weekend. They're hating on. They're hating on Governor Polis out there. And President Trump stepped into the breach and really convinced Governor Polis it was the right thing to do because it's the right thing to do. So we got a lot going on in the grassroots. Tell me about your governor's campaign. I know you're rattling a lot of china up there. People keep telling me that you are the true outsider son of Minnesota come back to save. You're like the Minnesota Cincinnatus. You've come back from your plow to save your state because it's very endearing. You keep saying Minnesota did so much for you and has helped form you that you believe that you need to step aside from business and get in and help save the state. Tell me, talk to me about that.
D
Yeah.
E
And see that. And I believe I'm the only one that can win. And I believe I'm the only one that has all the solutions to our problems, both in Minnesota. And some of these will even go nationwide. As I've looked into, for example, our 24 welfare programs we have in Minnesota. I, I've looked at each one individually now. But yeah, right now, everybody this week, they have a big GOP endorsement where they. This big debate and I'm not allowed to come. They've shut me out because. And so the establishment doesn't want me, Steven, the Minnesota media, you wouldn't even know I'm running. But we're running our campaign wide open. We've raised the most money. We're the ones that have. I'm number one in the polls with the Republicans, and we can't have the same input to get the same output. A lot of these, the one lady, that Lisa Damuth, she was speaker of her House in Minnesota. Well, you know, I'm sorry all this fraud happened under your watch, too. Just because you have an R in front of your name, you should have screamed a lot louder and yelled a lot louder. I know when I'm governor, I got a big mouth and everybody will know if we're getting blocked or there's deviations. So there's a lot of hope. We're bringing Ronnie, divided Minnesota into 67 Senate districts and set up, set up teams, just like I did with Cause of America over the last five years. So we're campaigning hard in every single part of Minnesota Just like I went town to town with pillows out of the back of a pickup truck selling show to show. We are going to bring hope to Minnesota and hope to the country. And that's by the way everybody, that's Mike. You can reach out there@lindalegov.com it's real simple. Lindalegov.com to help out. All we need is we, all we need is money and we are going to win. We're putting out 26,000 signs around Minnesota. That could be a record.

We'll see you this afternoon. Mike Lindell, MyPillow.com promo code warren most powerful in the business. Charlie Kirk is next poster after that, we're back at five, kicking off Memorial Day week right here in the war room. Everyone's focus on how the conflict in the Middle east is raising oil prices. But there's another grim reality to this contention. Oil isn't the only resource being constrained. About one third of global fertilizer trade happens through this region. And with spring planting season on top of us, American farmers are sounding the alarm with some saying they can't afford to plant their fields. When one piece of the supply chain gets hit this hard, you know what comes next? Higher fruit prices, reduced availability, maybe even panic buying. That's why having an emergency food supply at home makes so much sense. And that's where our friends at my Patriot supply come in. Right now@preparedwithbannon.com that is preparewithbannon.com we've set up an entire just site for the war room posse. You go to preparewithbannon.com that's all one word.
