This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people. Christians 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 you're not going to stop it. It's going to happen.

Here's your host, STEPHEN K. Band. It's Wednesday, the 27th of May, in the year of Lord 2026. It's the. The third anniversary of the impeachment of. In fact, can we tee that up? Can we tee it up? I want to play Brian Harrison's piece again. For those who have been with us for a while. You remember the firestorm that came in the summer of 2023, based upon the trial of Ken Paxton in the Senate. Let's play the Harrisons again because that happened three years ago this very day in the Texas House. And it shows you how far we have come and how have we come that far. The grassroots organization, they finally said when the impeachment started that we've had enough of this. And just the support we got. We covered that daily, nonstop, because we knew Ken Pasca was a linchpin. How do we know that? Because when the 2020 election was stolen and the illegitimate regime of Biden stepped into Washington, D.C. we didn't have the House, we didn't have the Senate, we didn't have the executive branch. These guys had all that trifecta put together, right? They were going to try to do what Hillary Clinton was going to do if she had won in 2016. We still have the pandemic going. We had to come up with, how do we fight a. How do we regroup? What hill do we regroup on? And how are we going to fight this, at least as a holding action until people can kind of, you know, we can get back and win the midterms, et cetera, et cetera, which we had done in 2022 to take back the House and that monumental victory done by the grassroots. But it was not easy. Remember, people, outside of the War Room, where we sit today doing the show from the Imperial capital, there were 100 National Guard troops up, armored with up armored Humvee right outside on every street around the Supreme Court, in the Capitol complex, the barbed wire. This was Pelosi trying to demonize. Remember all the signs they had up? They wanted to get all the. Not just J6 people, anybody. Even if you said anything about support of J6 to get toss you out of your company, this is really what the Marxists do when they take over, the fascists do when they take over. It was a fascist form of government led by Nancy Pelosi and of course, Biden. Biden was just a puppet. He was just, as we now know, with everything that's come out, it was these state ags. Ken Paxton was the leader. He was the first on all of it. He had some other great. He's. Don't get me wrong. But Ken Paxton stood in the breach when the country needed someone to step in the breach. President Trump's down in Mar a Lago. We started the years in the wilderness. Ken Paxton was the guy. They impeached him three years ago. He had had the gall to beat the continuing dynasty of the Bush apparatus. That's why the Bush people are so evil. Why do you think you have a Sharia law problem down in Texas? Wasn't it President Bush that came out a couple of days after 911 said, oh, Islam went to a mosque in Washington. Oh, Islam is a religion of peace. No, no, it's not religion of submission. All the misguided. He and Karl Rove, all the misguided moves they made in those first years on the wars of Iraq and Afghanistan that we're still in 20 years later cost $9 trillion, what, 8, 10,000 dead? And that's just of our uniform, the honored debt of our military that doesn't include the contractors who are all former military. Ken Paxton had had the gall to step into that breach and to fight those people. That's why they had to remove him. And three years ago, it was shocking to me. I said, wow, Paxton is like the guy. How can that possibly happen? This is where we really. I knew Brian roughly from the first administration, really where I got to know Brian Harrison and many others. The Patriot Mobile team of Glenn Story and Jenny's Story and all their grassroots networks and all these grassroots leaders. It was a foregone conclusion after the House overwhelmingly impeached him three years ago, that they removed him from office temporarily. He was not actually the acting Attorney general for that entire summer. And the trial started. And the trial was touch and go for a couple of days until Lt. Governor Patrick put his finger to the wind and said, okay, I got it. This is a grassroots revolt and these people are not going to allow this to happen. That's what happened. You have the muscle. You have the muscle memory and you're fearless. I just want to make sure that everybody understands the scale of this. This has never happened before. They're going back in time and looking at people that had been defeated by these kind of amounts that were incumbents. Now the ones they're looking at are people that were appointed. This has really never happened in the history of the Republic. Someone there 24 years. But before that, he'd been on the Texas Supreme Court. I think he'd been attorney General. He'd been a fixture of the Bush apparatus for decade after decade after decade. $150 million Ken Paxton raised virtually. I mean, it was the fives and tens that the grassroots sent him in, sent into him. He raised very little money compared to and La Civita and the Senate Leadership Fund and all the Senate, you know, all the geniuses, they had a simple plan. We are going to put down this grassroots rebellion in the Republican Party and we're going to teach them. We're going to teach them a lesson. We are going to destroy Ken Paxton, who the grassroots have said before, but we're going to destroy Ken Paxton personally. And in process, we're going to destroy the grassroots movement in Texas and they're going to fall in line with what. And you saw Fox News every day in all their glory. Karl Rove out there trash talking. Oh, you know it's going to cost hundreds of of dollars. What in the hell you think it's going to cost when you spend $150 million in personal destruction against a man? You didn't care. They don't care if they lose that Senate seat down to Texas. This is a bigger theme. You heard Meacham say, what is it, Trump or Trumpism? They hate you. Let me repeat this. They hate you. If they didn't hate you, they wouldn't do what they do. No one who respects the MAGA movement, the grassroots movement, populists in this country would have done. The behavior that the team around N. Cornyn, because he approved it all, did to destroy Ken Paxton personally. They don't care about the Senate seat. We were down there. We would see it. And then during the Olympics played. You saw it on broadcast tv, not just cable. Cornyn had one ad which was a bald faced lie because I was the biggest supporter of President Trump. On the wall. You have to build the wall. It's A commitment. It was Cornyn and McConnell, those guys that fought him every day, Paul Ryan, but the people in the Senate. Cornyn hated the wall, was an avowed open borders guy. He puts out an ad that he's like living in the Lincoln Bedroom. He's President Trump's best buddy. 99%, 99%, all that crap. They think people buy that anymore. And, you know, have an ad. But him walking down the border wall, got a big old cowboy hat on, got a pair of jeans, cowboy hat, with a couple of law enforcement officers. And then when I knew he was a total and complete phony, when Karen Siegman and Jenny Story and the great team down there, we kicked off the Proposition 10 on Sharia law with the great dinner and then boom, moved the show down there doing it. All the grassroots are on fire. The Texas Tribune, which are very smart, although liberal, paper pickup and said, hey man, this Sharia law thing is like hot. Cornyn, who's been the caliphate, Cornyn is his name. Caliphate. Cornyn literally makes an ad overnight. This is how Las Vegas people think you're morons. They think you're morons. It makes an ad overnight that he's Mr. Anti Sharia, he's Mr. A Bald Face lie because they think you're idiots. And they're just going to carpet bomb that on Fox News. You're going to just, you're going to lap that up because you're a moron. And then he comes out a couple days later and puts out his own bill, having been there for 24 years and been there during the height of the Iraq and Afghanistan war and after 9, 11, right? Doing nothing now all of a sudden, because Prop 10 said he's going to put a bill into the United States Senate. Finally. A guy's never worked a bill in his life going to put a bill in to stop Sharia law. This is how stupid they think you are. They think they just spoon feed you. Karl Rove can go up his little whiteboard. They can go on Fox and Fox and Friends and all this crap on Hannity every night and put it out there. Ken Paxton's dangerous. Ken Paxton's a criminal. Ken Paxton got impeached. Well, he got impeached three years ago today because the apparatus down there, the Republican apparatus, a bunch of liberals and progressives, and they put their business interests first before the interests of the state of Texas and before the interest of the United States of America, their interests come first. You would have never had the Muslim problem down there if it wasn't for the business interest in the Bush apparatus. Jenny Story, you join us. Jenny. We are going to jump to the Cabinet, but I think it's running a few minutes late. President Trump's normally 30 minutes late for these as they wrangle everybody. First off, what you have done and what I'm so proud of working with you guys is that you brought in so many partners and you're so intertwined into the grassroots movement. Can we just have a couple of names? I know it can't be definitive of those grassroots leaders that really stepped up here, Ma'. Am.
- [11:31]
C
Oh, my goodness. There's so many of them. I would say the True Texas project folks, Julie McCarthy and Fran Rhodes, they have been. They're just fire powers. They have a huge apparatus of volunteers. You know, the grassroots is all about the people. It's not necessarily just about the leaders, but it's about all their volunteers that work with them. I mean, there's others. Cindy Costella from True Texas Values, Joanne Fleming from Grassroots America, Melinda Preston, even folks like Audrea Decker from Pro Family. You've also got Lance Wallnau and Gene Bailey from Flashpoint. So you see, it's not just on the political side. It's also on the religious side, too, because we're in a spiritual battle in this state, and we need our spiritual leaders. We need our churches. We have a number of churches that also stepped up. So this is really the movement. And what I love, what you said in the last segment was that, you know, Kim Paxton spent 15 million and he had hundreds of million coming in against him, and we'll see that again. I just pray that the establishment in D.C. will finally fund this Senate senatorial candidate that the grassroots 1 want and won because, you know, we'll still be out there, but let's try to level the playing field a little bit better this time around. Let's see if D.C. can step in and really support Texas, because we are at a risk here in losing Texas. You saw in March, we had 130,000 more Democrats vote. There's still a lot of complacency. We have low propensity voters that need to get engaged and excited again. And the grassroots will do what they can. I mean, even our precinct chairs are rock stars. We need to. We need to give them encouragement. But funding really does help, and particularly when you have so much dark money coming into the state of Texas. We need to have the establishment recognize what the people of Texas want to.
- [13:37]
A
Jenny, can you hang on and hang through the break? I want to continue this conversation because there's lessons here, obviously nationally. I think there's lessons globally. But I want to pursue this. The one thing is I've gone down and sat into these general meetings like before the dinner we had. I think you had 150 or 200 grassroots leaders or over at Patriot Mobile when you packed the conference room or upstairs when you're doing it for doing the show and getting grassroots leaders on there. There's one common theme. These people put their country ahead of themselves as people put Texas, what's best for Texas and what's best for the citizens of Texas ahead of themselves. And they work like crazy for no compensation. It's inspiring. And they have beaten back the biggest, the most well funded and quite frankly, the meanest. Let's be blunt. These establishment people, they're nasty people. They're mean people. You were never done to Ken Paxton what they attempted to do. The good people in the state of Texas did. No, we're not going to have this. We're not going to succumb to this. We're not going to curl up in a ball and suck our thumbs and let it happen. Jenny's story of Patriot Mobile on the other side, the dollar's convertibility into gold ended in 1971. Gold was fixed at $35 an ounce. Well, fast forward to today and the US dollar has lost over 85% of its purchasing power. Gold, on the other hand, is increased in value by over 12,000%. That's why Central banks are buying gold at record levels. That's why major firms like Vanguard and BlackRock hold significant positions in gold. And that's why I encourage you to consider diversifying your savings with physical gold from Birchgold Group. But it starts with education. Birch Gold just announced their Learn and Earn Precious Metals event. This free online event rewards you for learning the basics of investing in precious metals. Sign up to get a free silver on your next purchase. Get even larger incentives as you go. The more you learn, the more you can earn. But you must act now, as this special event only runs through April 30th. The dollar lost its anchor in 1971. You don't have to lose yours. Text my name, Bannon B A N N o N to the number 989-898 to join Birch Gold's Learn and Earn Precious Metals event by April 30th. Text Bannon B A N N O N to 989-898 and do it today.

Here's your host, Stephen K. Ban. Okay, welcome back, Birch Gold. We're going to have Philip on tomorrow. I'm going spend a lot of time on capital markets over the next couple days and the deficit, the debt, all that. President the cabinet meeting today was supposed to take place at Camp David. I think even maybe with a smaller subset of that to Marco Rubio's back from India to kind of get I think a more coherent idea of where we're actually trying to where this negotiation is going because I think a lot of it's in piecemeal. You get the Pakistanis, you got the Arabs talking to people now. And I think President Trump wants to bring this to a conclusion. Of course, the cabinet meeting today I think would be more of the traditional ones we've seen. We're waiting on the media to give us a heads up that they're pre positioning in the cabinet room as Lisa has been set up today. That will be a thing. Now President Trump, as you know, will call an audible on occasions and we will go to that live and we will continue with that while he's allowing the media in until even through part of the Charlie Kirk show, which follows us next until the conclusion of when they throw everybody out and the president gets to work with his cabinet behind closed doors. Birchgold if you haven't read End of the Dollar Empire, maybe now's the time to actually read it. Eight free installments. You can get up to speed on everything about fiat currency. So make sure you go to birchgold.com Bannon you get it. It's totally free. Also, I think up to the 29th you've not made a purchase with Birch Gold before. On physical gold, talk to Philip Packtry and the team there are with qualifying purchases, it's a rebate up to $10,000. But you got to talk to Philip, Patrick and team about that. It's got some technical details to it, but talk to them. Talk to them. Why gold has been a hedge for 5,000 years of mankind's history. It looks like we got still a ways to go on the Iran situation and we will keep you up to date. We're going to have tons of analysis about everything going on militarily, geopolitically and of course on economics and capital markets. Jenny of course every group's got its own point of view, the own thing they're working on. There's a lot of egos involved because that's just human nature. The one thing I've been amazed about, really part of it started during the impeachment where that kind of came together and really the grassroots rose and Spoke with one voice. You're not going. If you impeach Ken Paxton, there's going to be payback. And so the Senate did not convict him at trial. Right. In fact, we went the exact opposite way. I noticed then the way the grassroots in Texas worked together. But then it really came together when we started the Prop 10 prohibiting Sharia law. And that flowed right into. It's really an energizer for the. For the Paxton campaign in the primary and then obviously in the runoff as a lesson to other states and other people trying to pull this together. What are the lessons learned about working together and kind of getting wrangling everybody? So we're heading down in one direction, and that direction leads to victory, ma'. Am.
- [19:44]
C
You know, I think what we realized is that by working together, that we amplify our impact. We all recognize here in Texas, you know, people come to Texas to raise money for out of state. Right. We don't have that funding here in Texas. And there is a desperation in Texas to save Texas. So all these organizations, it was not, hey, I'm going to work, but you got to find me money. It was like, we're going to use our networks because everyone's networks is a little bit different. Yeah, sure, there's some crossover members, but what we need to do is all realize that we've got to get our troops on the ground. And the only way to do that, to cover as much territory as possible, is for us to work together. So we had desperate groups in this room. We met three times on strategy meetings for the Prop 10. And it was just wonderful to see the folks come together. And, you know, the other thing is, is that it's not paid volunteers that are working. These are people that really care about this state and the nation. Right. And they're volunteering their time. They're sending out their grassroots members to go door knock, you know, to. To send messaging to text folks. So it was very encouraging. I think other states can do it. You just come with the first. The proposition is we're not here to raise money for our individual organ. We're here to help amplify our individual messages or our individual organization messages. Because there is a need to save the state. There's a need to preserve this country. There's a need to preserve our Constitution. You know, we're in the midst of kind of a revolution right now. We've got the democratic socialists who are, you know, galvanizing and have so much funding from Hollywood and from tech giants and everything. And we are fighting the true oligarchies now by the people. And I think that there are a number of states. A number of states have come to me and said, hey, can you do like a Save Texas in my state or. And I've had several people come to do that. I was like, first you've got to get a list of all the grassroots organizations. There are national ones like Moms for America, that everybody. They have chapter leaders everywhere. But you've got to find those Grassroots America or Texas Eagle Forum or True Texas Project or the counties. You need to get your county Republican parties involved as well. That's where I would start. I would start with a Rolodex of who is in your area and then bring them together. And anything we can do to help, we will. You know, that's what we need to do to keep this, to preserve our Constitution and push off the Democratic socialist agenda.
- [22:45]
A
I noticed one thing that I've preached for years because it leads to victory is in this modern age, the most important thing is voter contact. And particularly if the people know in your neighborhood, whatever, that, oh, yeah, these people are engaged in politics. They understand. They. They listen to podcasts. They really get to the details. What I noticed about the grassroots was your emphasis on bodywork or your emphasis on contact. And you're going to go door to door. These networks that are overlapping sometimes are all for multiple visits and make sure that people are in the network and they've been contacted. They know they got to get out. They know they have to vote. What I found fascinating is when I went down for one of your meetings. This is right after the great grassroots victory for the redistricting. You know, a lot of people in D.C. are trying to take credit for that. They had nothing to do with this. The Texas assembly had gone home, their regular session was over, and his special session was just in the process of being called. But this was not on the agenda. It was a grassroots effort to make sure it got on the agenda as the number one thing on the agenda. And then really forced because they didn't want eight potential seats, but they didn't even want to do the five. And we made the five as a. As a baseline. And it got national news when the Democrats left town. And the Republicans have never to date done anything that. Remember that for weeks they were in Illinois, they were in California, they were all over. Was huge, that grassroots efforts. And then as soon as we won that, you guys called a meeting and I went down to it. And the only, the only point I made is that in These efforts, you have to focus on one thing and converge. Like we just focused on the Paxton trial. Then you focused on the redistricting. Right before that, it was about taking the House and getting as many seats as possible. And we're sitting there and talking about very things. And it was Keith Self that brought up this major crisis that's in Texas, Colonel Self, Congressman Self in his district, and others, particularly in the Houston area, in the north of Dallas, Fort Worth, that it's getting to a crisis level. And that's this issue of Sharia law. It was in that moment, in the next 15 or 20 minutes, there was kind of decided, hey, let's focus on that. Next thing you know, you've got Prop 10 and you've got the thing. My point is that the grassroots and communicating with other and having these meetings of leaders, there's power there and the other states. You have to understand the establishment fears the grassroots, and they particularly fear grassroots working in coordination, because they know they don't have the power. They don't have the money to do it. Last night, maybe I'll play that this afternoon. Last night, John Cornyn, when he gave that kind of ridiculous concession speech, he's quoting poetry and books and all this kind of stuff. When the camera pulled back, they had other camera sites. It was in a very small, tiny conference room of some hotel. Every seat is taken by the media. There were no supporters there. Not that they couldn't get in there. Just nobody there. Their money can't buy grassroots support. This is why they went negative, just to destroy Ken Paxton. And in trying to destroy Ken Paxton, destroy exactly that group that had come around to defend Ken Paxton. Jenny Story, your thoughts, ma'? Am?
- [26:13]
C
Absolutely. It's. I feel like we're like in. What is it, the French Revolution, where the people finally rose up and they just said, you know what? We're done with the establishment. I mean, look at what happened. We've all been waiting. And this isn't just a Republican issue, it's a Democratic issue as well. We all want the SAVE act to pass. And essentially they were holding the SAVE act hostage for the voters in Texas to go their way. And we don't appreciate that. Right. We're not going to be held hostage. We want a fighter. We want somebody. I mean, basically, Paxton's now got a mandate from Texas, go to dc pass the SAVE act, you know, anybody who's going to D.C. returning to D.C. i mean, that is the most crucial thing that we need to do. We need to make sure we have voter Id we, you know, the border was open for a reason and it wasn't open for a good reason.
- [27:08]
A
Jenny, can you hang on for a second? I want to hold you through the break. I know you got stuff to do, but this is a very important day. It's a landmark day. We're going to take a break. Once the president arrives, we're going to blow all the brakes because we want to get the continuity of the Cabinet meeting. I cannot emphasize enough the importance of this Cabinet meeting. President's in the middle of negotiating a quite complicated deal with people who have a history like thousands of years of being very tough negotiators. Nobody's tougher than the Persians. And it comes to negotiation also. And always remember this, whether it's reality or not, it's reality. In their mind, they think they've won this. This is why some of these demands are getting President Trump's not even going to consider them. The cash they're talking about, the reparations are, you know, this is, this is in a critical part because the president is considering going to go back and go kinetic birchgold.com text Bannon B A N N O N at 989-898 the ultimate guide for investing in gold and precious metals in the Age of Trump. That means today, talk to Philip Patrick and the team about owning physical gold. Short break. Here's your host, Stephen K. Banner. Okay. Welcome back. Jenny's story. The Democrats are very, they're, they're, they're cunning like serpents. They've tried beta. They've tried different ways to turn Texas purple. They've had what allred the football player. They've had OOR that hasn't worked. So they understand the spiritual nature and the deep religious nature of the folks in Texas, given their frontier past. And they're trying a different one this time. And the reason I know this and saw it is that Jasmine Crocker, for all her craziness and all that, the abuse that the progressives and the liberals gave the black voters in Texas, which I found shocking in the Crockett race. They are so determined. They think the key to pick the lock in Texas is through spirituality and to run somebody that is a identifiable Christian. They believe that that's their path to victory. They tried others. They tried a sports hero. They tried o', Rourke, right, with his charisma and energy, which they thought had turned out to be an epic fail, but they tried that. They're very, they are in this kind of snake like cunning. They think the way to do this is to put a pseudo Christian up, and that's what's going to determine this. Particularly with the Hispanic community. You mentioned a moment ago this was a spiritual war. Walk me through the spiritual war in Texas and how this campaign leading up to November is going to encapsulate that man.
- [30:09]
C
Well, you know, we've had. We are in the midst of spiritual warfare. And it's not just recently. It's been a very strategic approach with the Red Green alliance, right? The Red alliance really comes in and they start the Democrat socialists, right? They start tearing at the fabric of a typical, you know, biblical church, right? Even through going through seminary, propagating ideas that aren't. That aren't not. That are not truly biblical. They're not truth. And they've been infiltrating the churches. You have a lot of these interfaith churches that are not biblical in nature. And by doing that, it almost gets to be like the government is God, right? That's why the Democrat socialists make a path into areas. Then you have the Green alliance, which is where we're having the Islamification coming in. So the two of them are working together to try to break down the fabric of biblically founded churches. So we're seeing less of them, but we are starting to see more boldness in the existing ones. And there are. There is a desire for truth. We need more faith leaders to be out there speaking the truth. And I think that there is a desire and a hunger even on college campuses. We worked with an organization called Reawaken USA and they went to several of the Texas college campuses and there were lines of people just wanting to speak the truth and learn about biblical foundations. And that gives people an identity. An identity in Christ is a much more comfortable, peaceful, joyful identity than an identity that says, well, am I a man, a woman, or I don't know how many different sexes that are being you know, propagated. I don't understand them. But that creates confusion and that has created a lot of confusion with our young people who are, you know, just prepudescent or seeking their identity. So we have been under a spiritual battle for probably a few decades, and it has slowly been creeping in. It's just kind of like the civilization jihad that's happening right with the, with the Islamification of Texas. It's been slow, but man, it's growing quickly. You know, just in Frisco alone, they just approved another mosque. And the acceptance is to the potential of these developments that are mega developments where you can basically be born and die in A Islamic community is basically taking away a person's right to benefit from this incredible constitution. They'll never see the Constitution if you're living in a compound. So we need to do what we can to strengthen the churches, to give the pastors confidence to speak the biblical truths boldly from the pulpit. And I do believe you'll see an increase in the churches through boldness. Josh Howerton from Lake Point Church. I mean, his churches are packed. He speaks the truth. People are attracted to that and that gives them the joy of identity by knowing they're placed with Christ. So that's something that we're focused on. We just recently launched Patriot Mobile Faith and we were able to attract a wonderful pastor from one of the megachurches around here. And his objective is to share the message of the gospel and to share our world, the worldview as it relates to the Bible, old and New Testament. And we're very excited to see where this takes off and also to what we've done on the political side to also do on the faith side to create a more augmented voice of courage and truth.

Jenny, tell Glenn. Thank you guys. Real warriors. Look forward to talking to you later today. Jenny's story. Patriot Mobile Grassroots down there folks are unbelievable. New York Times and I want to read this just came across my desk breaking. The Associated Press has called the race for Texas Railroad Commission, the state's oil and gas regulatory body for insurgent candidate Beau French. With his win, Texas Republicans have advanced a slate of anti incumbent hardline candidates. Now glad to introduce Beau French fresh from his victory, someone the audience knows well, beautiful. How and why did you win, sir?

Well, good morning Steve. Great to be here and thank you so much for having me on this morning. I'm working on a couple hours of sleep, so forgive me if I'm a little slow, but I'm riding high. Listen, this is a result of the grassroots in Texas really coalescing behind the message that, look, our Republican voters demand that elected officials listen to them and represent our values, fight for our values and our platform. And, you know, I got a lot of attention for things that I said, but those were, frankly, just a reflection of what I was hearing when I was traveling the state of Texas from our voters. You know, they want people who care about dei. They want people who will, you know, fight the Islamification of Texas. They don't want our government agencies to be politicized. And so, you know, me talking about those things really brought this to a head. And I think, look, it was a. It was a victory and a lot of victory last night in Texas. Conservatives won across the board. It was a great night in the state of Texas. My results were closer, so they came in very late. So people are just kind of waking up this morning and finding out about it. But listen, we have a huge fight here in Texas. You know, Democrats are going to be Looking back to 2018, when Beto O' Rourke came close in Texas and, and saying, okay, we have a guy in James Talarico who can defeat Ken Paxton. So they think, and they're going to dump half a billion dollars into the state of Texas for the November election. And so we as Republicans now, the primary process is finished. We have to come together, we have to be unified, and we have to fight, because, look, we can have our interparty discussions and all those fights, which I've been on the front lines of for many years, but now we have to defeat the Democrats if we want to have a chance to save Texas

with this whole grassroots. And what happened last night is a manifestation of, obviously, people working on different elements of this. This is why I started with Brian Harrison and Caroline Wren and talked, you know, with Brian, everything that's happened in the legislature and the whole history of Paxton and what he's done as Attorney general, particularly supporting the Trump movement in those dark days, the darkest days we had, which was those first five or six months of 2021, when the. When the illegitimate Biden regime took over. But the work you did in Tarrant county, just because when you mentioned Beau French, people would tell me as hard as the Paxton race was going to be, and people telling me it's not going to happen. They got $100 million. They're going to bury this guy. You're wasting your time. People would say, oh, and the beau French things, even a longer shot, right? A longer shot. What is it that you did in Tarrant county to really pull people together and to sort that what turned out to be a mess out? What did you do in Tarrant county that then rolled through your race for railroad commissioner, sir, that led you to victory last night?

B
Yeah, that's an easy answer. Really, Steve, it's be the outspoken warrior for the America first agenda. And that's what rewarded Ken Paxton. That's why Trump endorsed him. That's why there was such a huge victory last night in Texas, because our voters demand action from our elected representatives. And for too long we've elected some Republicans who have not done what the voters really want them to do. And there's a lot of frustration and that really showed through last night. But the message going forward is continue to be outspoken and fight for the issues that matter to our voters. And when we get in office, don't start thinking about the next reelection and listening to the consultants. Continue to be the person who the voters elected in the election. And I think that's what, that's an easy message and I think it's one that people will understand and I think it's one that the establishment, the consultant class that they're scared of because they get to make money off all of the behind the scenes stuff. But really just being the elected official that the voters demand to me is the easiest thing in the world. Just do it. It's that simple.

Bo, where do people. We got a huge campaign ahead of us for November. We got to make sure that you're a railroad commissioner. Where do people go on social media to keep up with you, but also the site for your campaign itself, where do folks go?
- [40:18]
B
Yeah, so my website is beaufrench.com obviously. Please go there. Sign up if you want to be involved in the campaign or donate. We're going to need a, a lot of money to fight in November. But more importantly, I'm very active on, on X and it's just O French.
- [40:33]
A
Are you very, are you very active on Twitter? I didn't know that. Yes, you are, Bo. I will also tell you, brother, that as hard as they come after Ken Paxton, they've come after you. And they're only going to come harder because they understand that you're a leader and a leader in this movement and they feel that you're dangerous. So thank you so much for standing the breach and thank you for not for never flinching. Really appreciate it.
- [40:56]
B
Never back down, Steve. That's the message.

Thank you, sir. As goes Texas, so goes the nation. As goes Texas, so goes the nation. I cannot emphasize enough of these continuing fights and battles we've had in Texas. It culminated last night literally breaking the back of the worst of the Republican establishment. Cornyn's campaign was a total disgrace, a total disgrace from start to bottom. He's a disgrace. He stands for nothing. He couldn't ever answer the question what he accomplished. The people that ran his campaign are awful and should be drummed out of politics. Should be a major investigation. I think actually a criminal investigation, because what did they do? What did they do? They fed into the Democrats trying to attack and destroy people. The politics and personal destruction is what all they've got about Trump. That's what they do to him. That's what they indict him all the time. Trying to throw him in prison, assassinating, bankrupt him, all of it. Same they've done with Paxton, same they tried to do with Beau French and others. You broke the back of the worst of the worst last night. Short break. Here's your host, Stephen K. Ban. Okay, as we guessed, the President's running late with the Cabinet. I'm sure they're talking through various things they're going to do. They're going to have a Cabinet meeting here momentarily. It will clearly run into and probably at least part of it consume Charlie Kirk. They haven't invited the press in, so they may be meeting behind closed doors or getting on with this. This was a Cabinet meeting that was supposed to take place originally. It was leaked. That was going to take place in Camp David. I don't think it's any big secret that the President doesn't spend a lot of time at Camp David, but they're going to go away and I think work on strategy and plans for, for negotiating, getting to the end of a peace deal that could be executed upon by, with the Iranians right now. There's obviously a lot of moving pieces. It's not simply moving pieces of, you know, you've got the military part, the geopolitical part. You've got the Persian Gulf. You have obviously the front of the war up in, up in Lebanon, in this war has kind of expanded, but you also have different fronts where people are trying to get in and actually get some deal done. This is not unusual if you study, particularly like take the history of World War II. There were, you know, people coming and pitching FDR deals all the time. And hey, I can get to the Nazis this way I can talk to them. This way I can get to the Imperial Japanese. I know this guy. I know a guy, right? We can do this. If you look at the history of the Civil War, the exact same thing. People are always trying to get peace emissaries, commissions. Hey, can we get some negotiated deal here? These are always messy. When you're seeing in live action. The one thing, I think one of the powers of the president, as we've talked about many times, and the reason that at both Real America's Voice and the War Room, we cover this so much, you're actually seeing history in the making. There's never been ever a White House that's brought you in because President Trump's got, you know, both the showmanship and the statecraft, and he calls audibles and does things in real time. Also has lots of misdirection plays, right, that think he's going one way and he's going another. However, there are a lot of, I would say, cooks in the kitchen on this one. You got the, you know, you got the. You got the field marshal. Pakistan's doing one thing. The Arab nations want to have a say, so they're sitting down with the Persians. You know, Qatar's got their say. So talk about the Arab nations and the Emiratis, you've got so much going on. Marco was as National Security advisor over in India for the last couple days. I just, you know, you've got to get everybody in a room. You got to get Hegseth in a room, Marco in a room, Besant in a room. Tulsi, while she's still there. Ratcliffe at CIA, you know, dhs, you've got to get the key parties there kind of as like in the Cuban Missile Crisis, they had a subset, they called it excomm, I think the executive committee of the cabinet and the National Security Council that you had, and you run it that way. And I think people are talking about maybe they need a smaller group that's in constant contact to bring this thing to a head. Like I said, the Persians, whether it's a fact or not, in their mind, they think they're winning. They wouldn't think they're winning. They would not have put forward what you're seeing now in some of these counter plans, right, Particularly the thing about the money that we need 24 billion, but we're going to need 12 billion down as a down payment. I just don't see President Trump doing that. I don't see him putting down a down payment. To bring this thing to a conclusion. Now he has on another track basically had Admiral Cooper and the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the folks at the Department of War and CENTCOM working up various alternatives. There was, you know, reports in the media. They're actually looking at maybe some of the harder to get to targets. Some of the things they still have out there that they think would bring real decimation to their military infrastructure. Then they've got the entire economic infrastructure and it's still economic warfare. We have not shut down the way they can get cash out. You still, I don't believe has shut down their access to some of these banks and financial institutions in the Arab states of the Emiratis. We still haven't dropped the hammer on countries still trading with them and dealing with them in Europe, our allies. Right. We have not cracked down and shut down the Chinese Communist Party and what the Chinese Communist Party is doing. There are many things that can be done. It's quite obvious as one of their strategies is to drag this thing out. They think they've got the Western media on their side. They think they've got the European media on their side, the American media. They want to drag this out. They obviously want to drag this out through the midterms. They think that's going to have a real blow to President Trump and lead to, you know, losing the House and the Senate and he will be repeated removed from office. That's the political warfare part of this. And don't think these are very savvy people. They come from a long history of understanding geopolitics in negotiation. So these are. They have a layer on top of them of the craziest and really the most offensive of Islam. Right. Some of the most aggressive, the theocratic state. But also remember the folks in the streets and a lot of folks thing have been thrown out. We've got walking into the cabin room. Okay, let's. Okay, can we go just as we're about to turn it over to the Charlie Kirk show. Let's go ahead and put it up. People are heading into the cabinet room. The President's about to take over. He let us have that extra hour. Mr. President, thank you very much. Wanted to talk about the grassroots effort supporting you in the MAGA base. President Trump. The exquisite timing of his endorsement of Ken Paxton led to the 30 point blow up. Ken would have probably won by 10. President Trump laid in at least another 20. Not too shabby and really put the, really put the stake in the heart. Our strongest recommendation here at the war room is take that victory and the lessons learned of that victory in Texas. And now let's pivot not just to other states in the Union, grassroots leaders, but let's pivot to the Senate that is treating President of the United States as a lame duck. Let's go ahead and jump right into the Cabinet Room right now.

More transparent than any administration in history. I know to the best of my knowledge, Press has never been invited ever to a Cabinet meeting for any reason at all. And it's an honor to have you. This team has achieved more than most other administrations achieve in eight years. We took the most dangerous, unsafe, violent and open border in the world, anywhere in the world. There's no border like the border we had and created the most secure border in the the history of our country. We had no people. 12 months. Now, no people reported in the last 12 months came in illegally. Zero illegal aliens admitted to the United States in the last 12 months. And that's. Those charts are made by, you would say, politically unfriendly people. And the reason they don't come in is because nobody comes up, because they know that they're going to be turned away and if they get in, they're going to be moved out right away. So it's been zero. You're the one that. Do you do the reports? I'm actually surprised by the number because I don't know how it can be zero, but they say it's zero for the last 12 months. In 2025, we achieved the largest drop in the murder rate ever recorded. So the murder rate was quite high. And we achieved the largest drop in the murder rate ever recorded to the lowest level at 125 years. That's the year 19. And that's despite the fact that many people came in from prisons and from very rough countries and from mental institutions.
