Transcript

[A]

Back of the classroom with a rubber band, you know, banging the girl with her hand raised up in the front when she just tell her to shut up. Don't ask any more questions.

[B]

We want to get out of here.

[A]

Was that you? Because I remember sitting across from me, I was like, who is that? Oh, is that Bannon? Kind of like that. Yeah, I was, I was that or reading the sports section. And I will not comment until now. You like how you like to take these, these, these haymakers. As the bell is ringing the end of the round, you, you give me a fox shot right on the way out. Because I know you gotta go do your show, but we'll pick it up. I just saw tc Hang on. TCM just had a great. One of the best boxing movies ever called the Setup with Robert Ryan on the other night, one of the best boxing movies ever made. And they. And the guy he was fighting, Robert Ryan was fighting, specialized in that below the belt shot right before the bell rung and I'm watching, I go, that's bowling in myself, right? With a cheap shot right for the brother. I love you. That Scott Kelly thing was amazing. Ben, have a great show. See you tomorrow. Thank you, sir. Thank you. We didn't even talk capital markets. We should. Okay, we got a great cold open. So much going on. But signal, not the noise, folks. Got to get your heads around. Got to get. Gotta face what happened in Los Angeles. You had a Trumpian candidate. He's not maga, he's not America First. I don't think he supports any of our policies. He was clearly had gotten traction with the people in Los Angeles, including, you know, independents, maybe even some Democrats, and ran a heck of a campaign with not a lot of money and not a lot of staff. Clearly was. Was going to make the runoff and run against Bass, who's just a systems player. The system's so corrupt out there, like any of these sanctuary cities, you just, you just play. You just plug in one of these Marxist jihadist lefties of which she's. And I'm sure she's not a three digit iq, as President Trump is saying, not particularly bright, but in broad daylight. They stole it right from Spencer Pratt. Stole it in broad daylight. That's got to be addressed. We got a great cold open. Royce White's going to join us. Tom Fitton is going to join us. Doesn't get better than that. Let's go ahead and hit it.

[C]

Donald Trump lost it on national television this weekend and proved to anyone watching that he has absolutely no way to defend his big, ugly lie. You know, the one he returns to anytime he's faced with a question that he can't answer. Before storming off an interview with NBC's Meet the Press. A A combative Donald Trump was unable to answer questions about the war in Iran, the war he started, or the dire economic conditions American farmers are facing due to his tariffs, or whether his deeply unpopular $1.8 billion slush fund is in fact dead. Instead, he retreated to familiar territory lies about the 2020 election and the integrity of America's election systems writ large. Pulling out the January Six playbook to cast doubts on the results of Los Angeles mayoral primary, Trump is trying to spin California's standard lengthy ballot counting timeline to cast doubts on the integrity of the vote. As a reality TV star he endorsed appears unlikely to make it to the runoff, giving us an alarming preview of what we can expect come November's midterms. In the process, are we reaching a point where it is part of the playbook of American politics, or is there a point where the electorate starts seeing through these unfounded claims? And by the way, given Trump's overall low approval ratings, is it already happening? Are people beginning to just sort of tune out and say, oh, yeah, election fraud again?

[D]

Yeah. And I think the reception for these kinds of claims is already heavily polarized. I do think people start to tune out on it. You know, you can claim fraud a couple of times, but eventually it does become part of the wallpaper and it no longer has the same impact. You know, I think also, you know, I want to say we in the press can do a better job sometimes of making clear, you know, votes are not coming in, they're being counted. There's no official count until there is an official account. These are things that we could talk better about. But, you know, the blame also goes past Trump. You know, we saw speaker, then Speaker Paul Ryan suggesting there might be fraud when California was slow to count its votes in the 2018 midterms. So this has been across the board, a Republican Party effort to cast out on the results when the results don't go their way.

[C]

So when you talk about the media doing a better job, I mean, like, what? Because do people sort of tune out? Are as many people as the four of us here and our loyal viewers is interested in the nitty gritty, you know, and how things play out?

[D]

Well, I think about on election nights, for example, the way results are sometimes communicated and we talk about them as though this is the votes coming in. This is as, as they're coming in and in fact, all these votes are counted more or less at the same time. And the official results often don't come. You know, we don't get an official result sometimes for weeks, even in a election where there's a called winner and where unofficial results come in. When you talk to election officials and when you talk to election scholars, this is something they really worry about, is that voters just don't understand the way that the system works. And I think they are getting a better understanding. I think a lot of people have done a good job of explaining to that to them as Trump's claims of fraud have become more amplified. But I also think, and I would say I'm guilty of this sometimes too, we have sort of shortcuts or we gloss over the process and explaining that can be really helpful to people to understand why, for example, a delayed result doesn't isn't any indication of fraud at all.

[B]

We can both be, be sort of weary of it, but, but also say we're not going to give into it and say that we're not going to become hopeless about it and we're not going to let him win by, by losing faith in our ability. I think that Donald Trump's attack on California has two particular aspects to it. The first is that he cannot stand the fact that the people of California cannot stand him. I mean, they keep voting against him, they keep succeeding as an economy and, and he can't stand that. The second, though, is that if, if he wants to steal the 2026 election, if he wants to subvert the outcome, you know, like Willie Sutton went to banks because that's where the money was, he's going to California because that's where the seats are. And so if you want to, if he wants to, you know, steal eight seats, 10 seats, or, you know, that's where he needs to go, but he doesn't have any evidence. And this is your point, by the way. You know, one thing I'd add is that you'd think if you were going to steal elections and you were the state of California, like, you wouldn't take your time, right? You'd be able to do it right away because after all, you'd be stealing the outcome of the election. The fact that these election officials are day in, day out, you know, toiling in public, in with full transparency, trying to get it 100% right is, is actually the opposite of what you would expect if you were trying to do something untoward. Major test for peace negotiations and the

[A]

power of US Influence in the Middle East. This hour, Iran and Israel both saying that they are pausing strikes, or at

[E]

least momentarily stopping them, after launching new

[B]

attacks that saw the worst breakout in

[A]

fighting since a cease fire that was installed in April. President Trump is urging restraint, and he's

[E]

now held a second phone call in the last 24 hours with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

[F]

Israel, certainly this Israeli government wants to see maintained freedom of action in Lebanon. They want to be able to strike not just southern Lebanon, but Beirut, the southern Beirut suburbs, not just now, but into the future, whenever they feel threatened by Hezbollah, either in response to a Hezbollah attack or to preempt what they see as likely Hezbollah attacks. Iran wants to tie Israel's hands and prevent them from doing that. And so far, the president, it seems, is so eager to end the war that he is willing to accede to that Iranian demand. I think Iran took a calculated risk over the past 24 hours that they could link these two together and launch direct strikes on Israel in response to something that Israel had done in Lebanon, something that Iran has never done before. Before the launch of this war, they'd struck Israel directly twice in April and in October of 2000 of 2024. Both those strikes were in response to Israeli attacks on Iranian interests or inside Iran. This was very different. And I think they took the calculated risk that they could do this and Trump would intervene and pressure not Iran to stand down, but pressure Israel to stand down, which is exactly what he did.

[C]

Mark Elias, talk to me about the, quote, opportunity for fraud and the way that idea is perpetuated when it's not just the President of the United States who is saying it, but all of the lackeys around him.

[B]

Why the hell is the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York opining on election law in California? I mean, doesn't he have enough to do in Manhattan? Maybe he should lock up some Wall street criminals instead. He's sitting there, you know, talking about opportunities for fraud in California. And by the way, his job is to investigate crimes based on evidence and to bring charges where they exist, not to be a roving political reporter about opportunities for fraud under election laws he knows literally nothing about. I mean, the fact that this is what the U.S. attorney's office in New York is talking about tells you everything you need to know about the corruption of this Department of Justice. Because this guy knows that his bread is buttered by having something provocative to say when Dear Leader is watching tv, even though he's sitting in a studio in New York City and Opining about California election law. It's a bunch of nonsense. There's no opportunity for fraud because people are validating ballots in public. There's no opportunity for fraud because the U.S. postal Service is too slow in delivering the mail. It is an insult to voters. It is an affront to democracy. And it is, it is part and parcel of what is wrong with this administration that this guy who's supposed to be tracking down terrorism or Wall street criminals is instead doing Donald Trump's bidding by insinuating nonsense about California.

[G]

I don't know what's going to happen with the weaponization fund. I love the idea because people like you, the fake dirty press, the crooked press, people like stupid Biden, he's not smart enough to know what's going on, but people that surrounded him, surrounded his beautiful Resolute desk in the Oval Office. What they did to the lives of people, they destroyed people. They sent people to jail who did nothing wrong.

[C]

Just to be very clear, there's no evidence of what doing you're saying. But Todd.

[G]

Blanche, listen to me. Let's talk. Tremendous evidence is nothing but the election was rigged. It was a dirty election. And it's happening again right now in California. Happening right now in California. Right now. It's, look at, look at what's happening California to that. It's four days doing well in California. It's. No, they're not there. They're dropping fast because it's a rigged election. Let me tell you, it's four days and they aren't even close to coming up. You know why they're doing that? Because they're cheating on the election.

[C]

There's what do you have evidence to support?

[G]

All I have to do is look, all I have to do is.

[C]

That's not.

[G]

And I listen and I listen to people and let's see what happens.

[C]

Sir, that's not evidence.

[G]

You think it's appropriate.

[C]

That's how they count the votes.

[G]

You think it's appropriate that they have an election and free five days later? They're nowhere close to picking.

[C]

Local officials acknowledge they are slow. They're urging.

[G]

No, they're crooked.

[C]

They're urging the votes to be counted quickly. That's how they're crooked.

[G]

Just like you're crooked. Your press is crooked and Meet the Press is crooked.

[C]

To be fair, I'm not crooked.

[G]

But let's really. When you play right into their hands.

[C]

Let's continue.

[G]

You're either crooked or you're stupid. You play right into their hands with this crap. You know that these elections are rigged. Your network knows that they're rigged. You know that I won an election in a landslide And I got 94% bad press. But Mr. President, you know why I got that present? Because you have no credibility.

[C]

But you've never presented evidence that it was rigged. Let's keep talking about. I want to talk about.

[G]

You have more evidence. There's more evidence than ever presented. Let's talk your elections in this country, we're like a third world country. Your elections are. Are crooked and you're crooked and Meet the Press is crooked. And so is ABC And CBS and CNN, Mr. President, your one sided crooked network. So let's call it quits because I've had enough. Thank you, darling. Have a good time.

[C]

Mr. President, let's please. I traveled all the way to Wisconsin. I've traveled all I know for an

[G]

hour on and off in the rain. And I've given you enough time. You ought to straighten out your press because you know what? A country can never be great with a dishonest.

[C]

Listen, we traveled all the way to Wisconsin for this interview.

[A]

Monday the 8th of June, year of our Lord 2026. I could watch that on the loop. Your elections of. Filthy. Filthy. He's so great. Remember, this was Friday. That was pre. Recorded on Friday after the. I think it was after the President did the town hall. Maybe it was before. There's Wisconsin. He tells her right there, Pratt's done. You can tell what's happening. She said, well, they're doing very good. There's not saying this is stupid press, ridiculous press. Welker, one of the dumbest right there. And just harping all the, you know, throwing out all these bizarro fact checks that nothing adds up. The President unloads on him. Did you get enough Mark Elias? I want to make sure you got enough Mark Elias. We do these cold opens just to get under your skin. Got to get the juices flowing to get into the show, right? It's like they tell you with a. In the National Football League, everybody gets up. They're all nervous, particularly the rookies. They're nervous. Or the new players up from the taxi squad. Everybody's nervous. I'm in the National Football League. And then, boom, you get hit the first time and okay, you're fine. That's what the cold opens to do to get the blood flowing. Royce White's going to join us. We're going to go right to commercial break. When I thank Eric Bowling for. Let us take a few minutes of the time and play the Scott Pelly. Scott Pelley. He's crying because Barry Weiss, little Barry Weiss with the big bug glasses when she's about five, one little Barry, Barry Weiss picked on him. She was a bully. And Scott Pelly is in the mumble tank crying on national tv.

[E]

Man.

[A]

Unbelievable. What a group of beauties. Scott Pelley, Kristen Walker at Meet the Press. President Trump. Eric just told the story about Lesley Stahl. They're never going to give you a fair shot. They're never going to give you a free shot. Don't continue to do it. You're just helping on the ratings. Let's bury him. How about this? Let's, let's bury these guys. No deals. No deals. Let's bury them short. Commercial break the Royce White Tom Fenton next in the War Room. For the first time Since World War II, our national debt, held by the public, has exceeded GDP. America, this is a wake up call. Our sins of the past, reckless government spending have finally caught up to us. So what's next? Higher inflation, higher prices, higher cost of living expenses and higher interest payments on the national debt. Every dollar Washington spends on interest is a dollar it has to tax, borrow or print. Smart retirement planners prepare for potential setbacks and they can do that by diversifying with a time tested asset known for weathering the storm that is physical gold. Now, physical gold you can get from my trusted friends at Birchgold Group. Text the word Bannon B A N N O N to the number 989-898 and Birchgold will send you a free info kit on converting an existing IRA or 401k into a tax sheltered IRA in physical gold. You don't pull the ripcord on your parachute once you've already hit the ground. Don't wait for economic turbulence to diversify. Text Bannon to the number 989-898. Again, Tex Bannon to 989-898. Own some gold and own it. From Birch Gold War Room, here's your host, Stephen K. Ban. Okay, Royce is with us. We're going to get to Royce in a moment. Royce and I are going to go over all the stuff in the cold open and what's been happening, particularly in California. Tom Fitton joins us. So Tom, and maybe I can read a little bit of this, but I, I don't want to. There's it looked like the FBI, the official FBI account or maybe it was Cash's account. We're coming after you pretty hard this weekend and I read it the media, I picked it up. Clickbait lie. FBI tax right wing group claiming Bureau is quote, slow rolling release of records connected to assassination attempt on Trump. And it goes on. Here's what I don't understand. Judicial Watch is one of the stalwarts. In fact, I would argue it's among two or three of the most important institutions we've had in the conservative movement in MAGA for at least a decade and maybe longer since you've been running it. It's just been incredible. In the Obama years, I remember we made a film about you and your team, about you guys being kind of the Elliot Nessa's going after corruption. What's shocking to me and I don't know what's the problem here and hopefully we can hopefully rectify things maybe after the show. But I don't get you. You are so revered, you're so hard working. Judicial Watch does such a great job. And by the way, Christina, Bob is going to join us tomorrow morning with Cleta. Christina. Christina's over at Judicial Watch. They're going to join us going through what's happening in Los Angeles right now. So it's that level of seriousness. What is this thing between you and Cash? Are you in the FBI? I don't understand why they are attacking Tom Fitton and Judicial Watch. We got enough people to attack. We don't need. We don't need to be attacking Tom Fitton.

[E]

So what's going we sued the FBI for Butler assassination records a year ago and only recently did they start releasing records to us. And they're slow rolling the release of records to 75,000 pages. They're giving us at most a few hundred a month. And so we got the batch and it looked like based on everything they gave us, it was heavily redacted. That email showed that the shooter had been in communication with a sheriff's deputy before the assassination. So that's how we read it. We put it out there. They said in this tweet, that's a lie. The information we didn't give you shows it's not true and that we're laughing stock and you know, and all sorts of other terrible things. What is going on here? A we put out what we understood to be information that was accurate. It wasn't a lie. They're telling us it's not accurate based on information they didn't give to us and withheld from us and then cash, rather than say, well, hold on here, you know, it's clear maybe Judicial Watch misread the documents fairly. But let's not call them liars, let's not call them disingenuous but they pushed that out there even worse. Cash reposted it. So I responded. I said the tweet was malicious, it was false, it was juvenile. There are documents that we need to see that would clarify what's in the record. That's fine. We'll do whatever. Indeed, we updated the release to take into account there's new information out there, but they need to take that tweet down. So they're calling me a liar. They're calling Judah she watch a liar. They're attacking our millions of supporters, all while hiding records about this issue, stonewalling us on this and numerous other issues. Incredible chutzpah. And I tell you, it's a leadership failure in the least by Cash Patel to not only allow this to happen, but to condone and further it.

[A]

So what does that tell us? The other ones? You're saying they're slow walk slow. I don't understand why they're slow rolling Butler. It happened a couple of years ago. They should get all the information out, particularly if you have to do a FOIA request. They should put the information out anyway. Tom Fitton and team shouldn't have to go through this whole FOIA process where they're saying they're bleeding out a couple hundred pages a month. What other issues do you have with the FBI and particularly leadership of the FBI? Let's get it all on the table.

[E]

Well, it's every, every, everything. We don't, we're not getting any information. Let's put it this way, we get no more information from this FBI under Cash Patel than we got under the prior FBI. And that's where we are we on this butler thing. There's 70,000, 75,000 pages. the rate they're going, we won't get it till the Baron Trump administration. They're hiding records going back to the, the Russiagate material and everything they give us, it's like slow rolled or, you know, it's like pulling blood from a stone. And you know, to attack us for highlighting something and pretending we're lying about it is, you know, they're government officials. They got an obligation to be accurate and be professional. And they were neither

[A]

have they. And they have not pulled it down as of yet.

[E]

They haven't. And we, we updated the release. I mean, we're told, hey, look, you got something wrong here, we'll fix it.

[A]

But hang on, but I just want to be clear. Hang on, hang on. The piece.

[E]

Hang on, hang on.

[A]

But the piece, the piece of information you got wrong was in an email they had not released yet. Correct.

[E]

So we got, we got the. This is how the document read five interviews of deputies. Next document, heavily redacted, showed two communications with the interviewee. We thought, that's the deputy. That's a deputy. They said, oh, no, no, no. Based on this material, we redacted it will show it was a college instructor and he was emailing about math. Why didn't you release it to us in the first place? We, we looked at it carefully. We thought it was a deputy. Based on what you're presenting to us and they're attacking us for lying. It's incredible. We put, you know, we waited. We sued for these records. We asked for them 20, 24. We sued in July of last year. They only began releasing records to us, slow rolling them. And we're fighting to get the truth out. We put it out as best we're able, and what do we get? This inexcusable and deplorable

[A]

is, have they reached out, Is there a point of contact that Judicial Watch has at the FBI so that you can talk about the things that you're looking for and you can avoid some of these FOIA requests?

[E]

I mean, they know how to reach us. The FBI sent people to my home. They know how to reach me.

[A]

People to your home?

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

That was under Chris Wright.

[E]

I'm being a point. It's like, you know, what? If the FBI wanted to release this information and follow the law, they know how to do it. We're in federal court instead. They're putting out hysterical tweets. I don't know if they're written by adults over there, but adults who are responsible for them should not be promoting them.

[A]

Tom Fenton. Where do people go to get. It was a social media. You've got it up on social media. Hopefully FBI will take it down in the not too distant future. Where do people go to get all the information about this and to find out the magnificent job that that Judicial

[E]

Watch does, go to judicial watch.org judicial watch.org I mean, you know, we're just trying to get the truth out here. You know, you're talking to Christina in the morning. We've got a Supreme Court case trying to stop ballots from being counted after Election Day. That arrived late. We just sued California to clean up nearly 900,000 names from the ballots. Dirty names. And this is the crap I've got to put up with from people who allegedly are aligned with us on these corruption issues and election issues. And waiting for the apology.

[A]

It's a great. It's a great point. Real quickly, the, the lawsuit I'm gonna have Christina on tomorrow, that would not impact California. This is a federal lawsuit about, about mail in ballots. Would this actually, this would have no impact on what we're seeing right now. The, the big steal in California against Spencer Pratt. This would not. Your Supreme Court suit would not impact this, correct?

[E]

Not directly, but it's gonna if it. Depending on what the ruling is, it could impact it. In November, there are 15 states that count ballots that arrive late. And one of the reasons we're in, the situation we're in now is because of the laws that are at issue before the Supreme Court. Now, this is a state race, but this is the sort of lawlessness that's going on in California. No normal election counts ballots that arrive late. And I think no normal state counts ballots for days and weeks after Election Day. I don't, I don't. I think what's going on from, from the inception, the idea of counting ballots late as they are doing that should be challenged as unlawful. You can't figure out who won on election Day. If you can't figure out who won on election day, then you should presume the election's compromised. And in 2020, let's go back to the history. Forgive me for going on on this, but it's important. President Trump had the votes to win on election night in 2020. He was the winner on election night. And that result changed as a result of unprecedented post election day counting in several states. Never happened before. And the only reason he won in 2024 is because we were on watch. We called them out on it.

[A]

Yes.

[E]

And they had to conduct the elections more honestly. But you in California, that's how they want to go on nationally count election elections that go on for weeks and months.

[A]

Months.

[E]

Until they get the result to guarantee a particular result.

[A]

Exactly. When they see how many Republican votes are, then they know how to generate ballots. These aren't even votes. They're ballots. Tom, one more time. Where they go to Judicial Watch. We'll have Christina on tomorrow to talk about it.

[E]

Where they go, it's got judicial watch.org judicial watch11word.org and of course, they can look at the X battle we're having at, at TomFit, at Tom Fitton on X. Unbelievable.

[A]

You avoid unbelievable. Thank you, Tom Fitton. Keep fighting the good fight. One of the best guys we got out there. Birch Gold. Make sure do not forget about our sponsor, Birch Gold. Take your phone and text Bannon. Bo B A N N O N At 989-890, you get the ultimate guide for investing in gold and precious metals in the age of Trump with what's going on in global capital markets, from crypto to equities to the bond market, now more than ever, you need to talk to Philip Patrick and the team, read the documents, no obligation, totally free, then contact Philip Patrick and say, hey, my first question is why are central banks, why are they buying gold at record rates and now buying gold at higher rates than US Treasuries? Why is that happening? Just wait for the answer, write it down and then think about it. Short commercial break Back in a moment. The American health care system is broken and for most Americans, nothing changes. There's still delays, denials, high cost insurance, roadblocks. So when I find people doing things differently, I talk about it all. Family pharmacy is not your typical big chain pharmacy. This is an independent family owned pharmacy that gives you access to over 400 medications delivered straight to your door. They've got ivermectin, antibiotics, antivirals, nad, even your daily maintenance medications and so much more. If you already have a prescription, your doctor can send it directly. If you don't, their doctors handle it. As long as there is a medical necessity, they'll take care of you. And I'll tell you this, the feedback from people listening to this show and watching has been incredibly strong. People are using it, it's working for them and they're sticking with it. That's because it cuts out the delays, the middlemen and all the usual nonsense. This is about being ready before you need it. Go to allfamilypharmacy.com that's all one word, allfamilypharmacy.com Bannon and use code Bannon10 to save 10%. The healthcare system is broken. Your pharmacy doesn't have to be war room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. Kate Colby Blumfeld Ganz joins us, the founder and CEO of Chapter Colby. You're giving people a free look, a no risk look at how to think through Medicare, which is enormously complicated, one, because how the program was set up and how it's evolved over time. Number two, the complexity kind of helps the insurance companies. You talk about $100 billion of fees that are out there every year. The more confusion there is and the less misinformation or disinformation and makes it tougher for consumers to make logical choices that are set up on, you know, their incentives are aligned with the program. It allows the insurance companies to grab A lion's share, if not all of those fees. So you set this company up based upon data. You're not a medical or healthcare guy. Walk us through it. And then how can people. I want. How do people go today and participate? Because the feedback we're getting from your free consultations are really what needs that. All we need is people to go to 845-war- room. Once they start the process, it takes over from there. But I want to get them there. So how do we do that?

[H]

That's right, Steve, thanks. It's 845-war room. It's a very simple process. If you have any questions about your Medicare plan or you're just starting to think about Medicare, you can give us a call. It's a free consult. We'll help you not only decide if you even should be in Medicare, we'll help you decide which specific Medicare plan to enroll in. And then once you're enrolled, we'll also help you if you need to find a doctor who's in network or you need to lower your prescription costs or you need to appeal a bill or a claim, we're there to help you for your entire journey along. The Medicare plan. It's an entirely free process. And so we're really just here to help the posse. A couple of examples, just from the past few days of people from the posse, we've helped one individual, we helped cut their prescription prices down from $250 per copay to $62 per copay. So this is. This is a prescription that's filled every two weeks. So it's a very material savings over the course of months and a year. Another, we helped save about $800 on their premium for their Medicare supplement plan. And these are just a couple of the stories that we hear every day that we're able to help the community with.

[A]

Are you shocked? I know you started this because your mom, who's obviously very intelligent, she's your mother, you know, she was. She was kind of wrapped around the axle on her plan. It turned out she'd gotten into something that she didn't want to get into because she just didn't understand it. Right. It was so confusing. What is the thing that can. That surprises you the most when you start talking to people who are very educated, been very successful in business, have raised successful families of how Medicare breaks them. I mean, Medicare you just can't crack, really, unless you have guidance. What's the things that surprised you most about what you guys hear?

[H]

Yeah, I really didn't expect that. It would be this challenging for everyone. Even the people, as you said, who are healthcare experts, who are economists, who are financial whizzes, it's still challenging for them. And I didn't really anticipate that people would be this interested as well. Consumers who need Medicare guidance are so desperate for honest, clear, transparent information and it's just so lacking from the marketplace. And so that's been a really nice, nice surprise. Not, not that people need it, but, but that we're here and people want our help and it's, it's allowed us to grow quite quickly as a business and support more and more Americans.

[A]

845-war room. It's a special hotline. You call up, you'll get one of your consultants or on the phone and then you just take from there. Greg that's simple.

[H]

Thanks for having me, Steve.

[A]

Thank you. 845 War Room. It's, it's totally free, no obligation. They set this up. And why they do that because the percentage rate they got of people to say, hey, we want to use you is very, very high. 845 war room chapter. Go check it out today. No obligation, totally free. And it'll start Medicare, start making sense. V. Royce White so Royce, I wanted to have you on here. We had some time to go through this. The situation in California, almost like the situation in Minnesota in other states, is to, I think to show people that you're helpless against the system. They have a system. They're going to, they're going to run Minneapolis the way they're going to run it, and they don't really care what you have to say about it. They're going to run the great state of Minnesota like they're going to run it and they don't really care what you have to say about it. In California, it's even more egregious. But anywhere you have these sanctuary cities, anywhere you have these, these blue states, and a state like Minnesota actually shouldn't be blue because there's not just tons of maga, but tons of kind of hard working conservative people there. Is it set up to break people's spirits, sir?

[I]

Absolutely. And especially on the Republican side, you know, I criticize our team first because that's what a responsible teammate does. We can talk about the refs and we should talk about the refs. And the refs are cheating us right out in the open and we should talk about the rules of the game. Mass deportation. Mass deportations. 20 million foreign invaders as an appetizer has to happen. Mass deportations. We could Talk about all of that. But the real issue, and you and I both know, is the Republican establishment, the traitors in the wire, the John Thunes, the Thom Tillises, the Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowskis, Mitch McConnell, Tim Scott, even, there's a whole list of them. They're Mitch McConnell's running dogs. And they're just as strong here in Minnesota as anywhere in the country. We have one of the most profound unit parties and in the entire country. And it's by design, right, because Minnesota sort of the intellectual brain trust or cultural epicenter of American politics. I actually think California has a great chance of going conservative or Republican, as we have very well seen before. Minnesota, why? Minnesota has about 1 point million, estimated 1 point million low propensity Christian conservative voters that our party's not even interested in getting. Why they reject President Trump on a, on a fundamental basis, which is why they would go and recruit and endorse and promote a Michelle to Foya, who's pro choice. Rudy Boshowitz endorsed her. The last person he endorsed was Nikki Haley. Oh, by the way, the only difference between Michelle Tafoya and Nikki Haley, Nikki Haley's smart enough to know that in South Carolina, in order to pretend to be a Judeo Christian, you have to at least, you know, value the sanctity of life and uphold the pro life pillar. In Minnesota, we're just abandoning those things. So, I mean, I'm living, It's like I'm taking crazy pills here or something. Steve, we need, we need help. I'm behind enemy lines. Come help me here, sir.

[A]

There's 1 million Christians in Minnesota that are not signed up to vote, is that what you're telling me? And the Republicans don't want it because these are pro life people though.

[I]

They don't want them because the party, the whole point of the Minnesota Republican Party is to dominate and control the center right of politics because there's a great payday in it every election cycle. The almost win team. We're like the Washington Generals, right? I mean, there's a cut for the Washington Generals. You just have to come and get humiliated by the Globetrotters every, every night. But you know, it's an estimated 800,000 to 1.1 million Christian conservative crossover low propensity Republican voters didn't vote in 2024 with the entire nation. Now, I don't know if they're not voting, if they're being mistabulated or what the, or what the case may be, but I know when you run an openly pro choice candidate, you're telling the Christian nationalists we don't want your vote. I mean, what, What, What a what? And here's the thing that really makes me upset, Steve, and I say this in all seriousness. The Overton Window has obviously been shifted over to the left, where we're going to even negotiate with people who openly condone talk about mutilating children's genitalia for gender changes right under that auspice alone. I don't even think the president should give the government back to these people. I think that the fact that we're even going to argue with people who are so unmoored from reality is a matter of. It's a threat to national security on its face. But okay, all of these Republicans who are gonna capitulate and pander to an Overton Window we all see has shifted so far to the left, I count them with the communists. I mean, how can you try and negotiate with people who are unabashedly unmoored from reality in this way, especially in a place like Minnesota. Now we're the transgender capital and our trans activist lieutenant governor is the front runner for United States Senate. And we're going to try and what? Appeal to the moderate voters in Minnesota who. Who condone cutting a little boy's balls off in the name of gender fluidity. I mean, what. What have we even do. What is going wrong with this conservative movement in culture? Not the crazy communists. We know. What's wrong with them? What's happened to us? Where is our saltiness?

[A]

You're. You're trying to enter the United States Senate. How can the Senate right now is treating President Trump.

[E]

You.

[A]

Do you agree that the Senate is treating President Trump as a lame duck right now?

[I]

Traitors. They're traitors, sir.

[A]

Put some flesh that out for me. What do you mean by what you say? Thune's a traitor. Lindsey Graham's a traitor. Tom Cotton's a traitor.

[G]

All of them.

[I]

They're all traitors. They should be arrested. Listen, any United States senator who. Who uses the political football in any way to withhold secure elections from this nation's people should be brought up on dereliction of duty charges. They are traitors. And we're not there yet. I guess we haven't had enough. Maybe another election needs to be. How many of these elections need to be stolen before we get serious about the sheer nature of things? These people are traitors. And they're laughing in the President's face. It actually makes me angry. They're laughing. John Thune. They're all. Well, we're not going to, you know, we're not going to. Susan, we're okay. You know, God bless them. They better be glad they get the president and they try and pretend he's extreme. Right? No, you got people like me coming down the pipeline next. So, you know, have your fun now. Because when the, when the, when the, when the dust settles, sure as the sun will rise, my generation is coming. And I regard John Thune as a traitor to this republic.

[A]

The president put out a true social earlier where he requested having tried to push John Thune to pass the Save America act and other things he says is fundamental for saving this republic. And California shows you how essential it is. And President Trump called it on Friday when Kristen Welker's, you know, laughing at him. Oh, they're doing very well. You know, they're going to win. No, he said, you're wrong. They're going to lose. That was on Friday. So he was a called shot there. He's asked, he's ratcheted down and asked for one simple thing. He said, fire the parliamentarian. She's a, you know, she came in under Democrats. She's a Harry Reid appointee. She's from the Obama era. Just do me a favor. Cause she tells us everything we want to do. You can't do just fire the parliamentarian and bring in a conservative. And John Thune just comes back immediately and said, nah, we're not going to do that. Your thoughts?

[I]

My thoughts, I hearken back to something I heard you once say. You were addressing a crowd and you talked about Abraham Lincoln and it's our 250th anniversary as a nation. And I know I get a little dramatic, but I'm actually serious about this. President Trump, his first divine calling was to stand up to this Republican establishment, call out the DC Swamp, the globalist agenda, all of that. He did well. And he shifted the Overton window back. I mean, he prided from the depth death grip of the fake news mainstream media. Now, I think his divine appointment is something like to, you know, to find that Lincoln spirit and just say, you know what, we're not going to keep playing this game. And here's the thing, Steve, and anybody out there, I know it sounds crazy, but let's just play it out. If we give this government back to the Democrats in 26 or 28, is there any doubt that they're going to let in another 20 million foreign invaders? No. So the only question left for us to answer is how serious and grave do we think letting another 24 million, 20 million foreign invaders into our country actually is. If the answer is we can't take another 20 million, then right now we are in the throes of a very serious matter of national security. And the John Thunes of the world, this entire Republican establishment, I mean they should. I don't even know how they make it through another primary season unless the President is convivial with them and kind of helps them through it. Because all Lindsey Graham's, all of them, they should all be primaried with no equivocations whatsoever. They're traitors, absolute traitors. In Minnesota, let me tell you. Minnesota, Minnesota is the cultural epicenter of this, this rot, this Christian 501C3 conservative rot. I'm outside of the men's GOP convention where they didn't endorse the American hero, Mike Lindell. It's absolute insult and shame. I'm outside counter protesting communists on the street in what. What emerges from our convention. A delegate with the Minnesota GOP credential. He's literally carrying a bag of water and handing water to the communists. I think to myself, this is the motif of the entire conservative culture. We're carrying water for the communist Steve in Minnesota. We're carrying water where as if they need any free water. You know, the George Soros protesters need any free water from the Minnesota Republican Party.

[A]

Got, got to make sure you, you hydrate them and pat them on the head and make sure they're fine. Boys, hang on. You're on fire, brother. I need you for the next block. I told you it was the Royce White. Royce has a lot of wisdom there. He framed it perfectly. It's a national security issue in the Washington generals to the Harlem Globetrotters. That would be the Republican establishment to the Democrat Marxist jihadists. Because the, the Republican establishment just wants to go along to get along, make as much money as they can as the nation declines. Royce White. On the other side, everyone's focused 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.

So real, real quickly because I got a couple things I want to play. Tel Aviv Levin Tel Aviv event. Big mad. Oh man, he's big mad that we talked about this this morning. His idea I was trying to give him. I was trying to promote his idea. I tried to. I played the whole 90 seconds and I just let people opine to it. Going to try to do it again with Royces here. Quickly. A national security threat. If we turn the government back over to the democrats of the Marxist jihadists in 1 minute, 60 seconds. Why is it a national security threat and you would recommend we not do it, sir?

[I]

Okay. They let in 20 million foreign invaders and that was an appetizer for them. They wanted to let in more. They're not ashamed of it. They don't hide it. They say it openly. They brag. They say there's no body illegal on stolen land. If we give the government back to these people, as sure as the sun will rise, they will let in another 20 million foreign invaders, if not more. That's way too many. I mean, we shouldn't let in another single foreign invader. We need to deport 20 million and we're talking about giving the government back to. Look, Steve, the two sort of universal basic standards of having a nation, one, you have a border, you control the traffic across that border. Number two, you do not under any circumstances normalize cutting off your son's penises. These are two fundamental pillars of their political movement. The President of the United States shouldn't even consider giving these lunatics the government back. Steve, it's, it's crazy that we're even discussing it.

[A]

Brian's. I mean, Royce. One last thing before I play the Mark Levin, I noticed in some of the policies you push in your speeches you're a little more populist and a little more nationalistic than some of the, the first wave of the MAGA movement, maybe even the president. What did you say? The very lead in your interview in the last segment was? Hey, what's coming after? I equate it to Louis XIV saying after me, the deluge. What are you talking about?

[I]

Well, they falsely propagandized President Trump as this far right extremist and it's a way to. To hold the Overton window in a false place. President Trump is a moderate and I don't say that disrespectfully. I say that because he's a kind and decent hearted man. We are coming. My generation is coming. The young generation of the America first in MAGA movement are coming. And we have zero tolerance for these propaganda games. Mass deportations. Mass deportations. I'm a heritage American. I'm not an immigrant. Get these foreign invaders out of here. It's not even an argument or debate. We're going to go door to door and remove every single foreign invader. So you better enjoy President Trump while you have him.

[A]

Let's play the. I want you to comment a pine to Mark Levin. Let's go ahead and play the cut from this morning.

[J]

Here's an idea. We spend the Next two or three weeks hammering the hell out of every target that matters, including the so called enriched uranium, 20% or more, I don't really care, whatever it is, and just hit them with everything we've got with those fabulous bombers and bombs. Take out everything we can find in coordination with our Arab and Israeli allies, identify every IRGC facility we possibly can and level them. Do as much military damage as we possibly can, dual use damage as we possibly can, and then leave rather than giving them money, which to me would be a disaster. And tell the Israelis and tell the Saudis, the uae, which has been very good, and anybody else in the Arab world, we will provide you with whatever intelligence support, training, military equipment that you need. We will continue to use our posture in the region to defend our forces and our mutual interests. But as far as Iran and Hezbollah go, you go at it. If you want to blow Hezbollah off the face of the earth, then you do it. If you want to blow the Iranian regime off the face of the earth, then you do it. And in addition, what we, the United States will do finally is arm the people of Iran as we have as a country, armed people throughout the world, freedom fighters who want their freedom. And I don't want to hear that the Iranian people don't want their freedom. That is baloney.

[A]

Royce, we got a minute. Your observations. Levin's big mad at me because I played this morning a couple of three times and let people, you know, makes observations. Your observations, sir.

[I]

I'm going to say this as a shameless plug to my own campaign. All of these Israel firsters, these folks who say that we're going to fight a war in the name of God, in the name of Christ, a world away and then want to abnegate, want to get rid of our pro life pillar, grave spiritual indictment, Grave spiritual indictment that we would fight a war on behalf of another country and in the name of God, but not protect the sanctity of life of the unborn in our own country. And it's a, it's a great litmus test for some of these Israel firsters. Just ask them, do you support a Michelle Tafoya who's publicly pro choice because she gets money from APAC and she'll defend Israel because if you do, you're a hypocrite.

[A]

Royce White, where do we go to get your show? Where do we go to get all your content, your podcast, your thoughts and your campaign, sir?

[I]

ROYCE White, US that's the Senate campaign website. Other than that, just follow War Room because I'm Streaming on all the platforms all day long.

[A]

Royce White, love you. So glad we follow your show. The start your Saturday morning show is quite. That and warpath coffee get me going for the day. I just dial it in. I just phoned it in in War Room in the Saturday morning show. I'm kidding. It's my favorite. But that pre show with Royce, Amazing. Stick around for an entire hour. We're going to break down some. If your insurance is too high, if it's sending you to bankruptcy, there just may be a solution out there. And it's faith based. Stick around. The second hour of War Room is upon us. Follow us on our journeys. We try to make sense of all of this.
