Steve Bannon
This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people. I got a free shot on all these networks lying about the people. The people have had a belly full of it. I know you don't like hearing that. I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it. It's going to happen. And where do people like that go to share the big lie? MAGA MEDIA I wish in my soul, I wish any of these people had a conscience. Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose? If that answer is to save my
Brian Harrison
country, this country will be saved.
Steve Bannon
War Room here's your host, Stephen K. Banner. Thursday, the 6th of August, year of our Lord 2026. If we have time for. We'll get to our traditional cold open a little later in the show. We've got a couple of candidates this morning for the governorship of the Republican nomination.
Trevor Comstock
Florida.
Steve Bannon
We're going to get to. We've got John Solomon. Blockbuster news about Maricopa County. Axios, the buried lead over Axios. The number six story is the leaders of the Frontier Labs are saying, hey, I actually think we're in a. I think we've reached the singularity. So we're going to break all this down. But I got to start in Texas. Brian Harrison, because, Brian, look, brother, this is the Warren Posse.
Byron Donalds
Will.
Steve Bannon
Will put their shoulders to the wheel. And this is true of not just the posse, but the great grassroots effort in Texas, which is the strongest in the nation. And leaders will take time and they'll take their free time and they'll do whatever needs to be done to save their republic and to bequeath this constitutional republic down, you know, downrange. But what they demand is accountability. Can you walk us through what you've put up on Twitter? Last night had my head blown up. So can you please update the story? Update the story and tell us where we stand, sir, in the great state of Texas with the political. The political class down there?
Brian Harrison
No, the grassroots. The people of the great state of Texas. They're patriots. They love their country. They love freedom. And they've done their job at the ballot box. They've elected Republicans and given us massive majorities from the governor's mansion, lieutenant governor's office, huge majorities, the Texas Senate and the Texas House. But unfortunately, the corrupt establishment uniparty keeps putting the Democrats in charge. And that is on display every day in the corrupt Texas House where our fake Republican leadership we are, we're two days past, Stephen, two days ago was the one year anniversary of the Democrat quorum break when the Democrats fled the state and hid behind, you know, Governor Pritzker to try and stop us from adding five new congressional seats to our map. And I was warning everybody, guys, this is just, just gonna see hand waving a kabuki theater from the fake Republican leadership. Because what people don't understand is Democrats control the Texas House. And you're like, well how is that possible? Well, radicals like James Talarico, the Marxist progressive running for the US Senate down here, he was literally part of the coalition that elected our fake Republican speaker. I'm gonna say that again. The current Republican speaker of the Texas House was elected, installed by James Talarico and the Democrat caucus. Okay, so it was our Republican speaker that let the Democrats leave. They broke quorum and then for the past year we have had paid hacks, establishment mouthpieces, gaslighting the people of Texas saying our Republican speaker, he's going to hold those Democrats accountable. Here we are one year later. Let's see, the governor said their seats were going to be vacated. Zero seats vacated. Our speaker, fake Republican, signed arrest warrants a year ago. Yeah, zero arrest. But here was the last thing they did. Like, we're going to find those Democrats and we're going to make them pay and we're going to find them and they're going to have to pay for it with personal money, not campaign funds. No, no, no, they know that wouldn't hurt them. Not official expenses, personal funds. Well, as of yesterday, I've got the receipts. I said they were lying a year ago and now I can prove it. These Democrats who paid their fines were paid or reimbursing themselves out of their campaign accounts. It's another betrayal from the establishment unit party that runs the Texas House. Democrats have never wielded, despite gaslighting, Democrats have never wielded more power under a Republican speaker than they do right now under our fake Republican who was put in charge by Talarico. And he'll get this. What's one of the biggest nationally. People need to understand this. James Talarico rose to national prominence under the fake Republican leadership in the Texas House. After Talarico elected our speaker, our speaker rewarded him, he put him on powerful committees, he made him co chair of two committees and he prioritized his bills over Republicans. So when you see James Talarico campaigning on a legislative track record, the sad reality is he has one. Because of the fake Republican leadership in the Texas House who prioritized James Talarico legislation over Republican bills. And I've been calling for months for Talarico to be stripped of his leadership position because that's what the patriots who call the great state of Texas home demand. And they deserve. They. They voted for Republican leadership. They deserve Republican leadership. And I'm sick and tired of Democrats in Texas fighting harder for the future than elected Republicans.
Steve Bannon
Have they taken away a parking spot? Have they moved an office? I mean, you have tremendous power, patronage, tremendous office space, staff perks like parking spaces, security. Has anything, anything been done to, to. To hold these people accountable, sir?
Brian Harrison
And I can tell you firsthand, the parking spots remain untouched. I can tell you that because I literally share a parking spot with none other than James Talarico. There's nothing more than a line of paint that separates my truck from James Talarico's parking spot. And every time in there, there's James Talarico's car right next to my truck. So let me tell you something. They haven't touched the parking spots. But on a serious note, if we wanted to be serious, I mean, I wanted, I proposed a year ago, and you know this, we talked about it a lot. The Harrison plan, right. For every week the Democrats broke quorum, we should have added one more Republican seat to the mat, to the, to the congressional map. We should have done that. But no, we have so many tools we could do if we were serious. I mean, the governor said he could vacate their seats. Where's that? The speaker said he could arrest them. There were no arrests. Get this. Democrats are still chairing committees. Forget removing them from committee assignments. They're the chairman of multiple committees, including multiple subcommittees that literally write the budget in the state of Texas. I mean, you heard that right. The budget in Texas is written by radical Democrats and supported by radical Democrats like James Tallarico. So not only have Democrats not been punished, they've actually been rewarded. And when they got back, their legislation continued to be prioritized. And Stephen, as you and I sit here today, three months out from maybe, maybe the pivotal Senate race in the country, Paxton versus Talarico. James Talarico still holds multiple leadership positions in the Republican controlled Texas House of Representatives. There's no reason for that. And if our speaker was a real Republican, he would strip James Talarico of his committee assignments, his leadership positions, and he would have done it a year ago, but he could still do it. Today I renew my call for Democrats to be stripped of their leadership positions.
Steve Bannon
We're going to get to the Action plan in a minute. And we're tight.
Kobe (Medicare Advisor)
Yes.
Steve Bannon
Block. So get all done this block. Quick question. It's not just as I look at the battlefield, it's literally holding some of these. Texas, predicting the redition, that the Texas House seats and getting Paxton over the top is central to the victory if we're to hold serve, and that's what we need to do is hold serve in November. Texas is the actual beating heart of this, both in the House and obviously in the Senate. The grassroots fire. I mean, we're spending a lot of time behind the scenes talking to grassroots groups, but this is what dampens their enthusiasm. What would you tell the grassroots we need to do? Because they're ready to go the ramparts, like they did on the Prop 10, you know, prohibiting Sharia law like they did in the Paxson primary, like they did in the runoff. The grassroots are there ready to fight, but they see this and they go, what are we doing? Particularly when we all need to be focused on massive canvassing, door knocking, get out the vote. Personal contact, sir.
Brian Harrison
No, absolutely. Look, Republicans, voters need to be energized. Not just to go to the polls, not just because the Democrats are socialists and the Democrats are Marxists. Everybody knows that. Voters, we as Republicans, elected leaders in Texas. We need to get voters excited to get out and vote for Republicans. Ken Paxton must be elected. He must defeat radical liberal extremist James Talarico. But it's counterproductive to the purpose when you have a supposedly Republican speaker currently leading the Texas House who voted to impeach Ken Paul Paxton, the current Republican speaker of the Texas House, voted to impeach Ken Paxton that demoralizes voters in the state of Texas. I'm telling you, there would be nothing that would energize voters to go to the polls and cast their ballots for Republicans more than if Republicans would start acting like Republicans. Govern boldly. Govern without fear. We should be. As much as I love talking to you back in my district here in Ellis County, Stephen, let's motivate voters by calling a special session right now, today to start doing things that they want, like eliminating property taxes, combating the threat from Sharia law, punishing the Democrats who went rogue, you know, stripping them of their committee. How about this one? Stop giving birth certificates to illegal aliens. Let's have a special session and make birth tourism a felony. Let's govern like the bold, fearless, pro liberty conservative Republicans that the patriotic, hardworking, overtaxed men and women of the state of Texas demand and that they deserve and if we governed boldly like that, Steve, I think we wouldn't just win and top to bottom in Texas, I think it would be a landslide. So I, I think the conventional wisdom is all wrong. Don't go all soft in the general election. Go bold. Fight for the future. Give people a reason to know that if they go and cast their ballot for a Republican, they're doing their part to preserve the blessings of freedom and libert their children and for their grand grandchildren. And Texas is on the front line, as you know, Stephen, for the future, not just of Texas, but of the United States and of the world.
Steve Bannon
This has been our message. This has been our message. We don't need to, to, to. We should welcome this midterm election. And if we get our act together and get back to the policies we've been talking about, people will turn out in droves, just like it did in 24. But you got to say, hey, look, here's what we're going to do in particularly in Texas with shreya law and the birth tourism real quickly because I don't want to lose you. You are next to Talarico. For the rest of the audience, that's not in Texas. Just give us a minute on Talarico as a unit because the more I drill down this guy, the more I'm stunned that he is actually the Democratic nominee in the great state of Texas. Sir.
Brian Harrison
I've been warning people about this guy for years. He is very articulate and he is going to fool a lot of people. I'm just warning folks, do not let his choir boy person, AZ FOIA or his like seminary student, you know, facade, this guy. Let me be really clear about James Talarico. He is more liberal than Bernie Sanders, okay? I know him. He's weirder than Tim Walls and I actually think he's more extreme than the woman he beat, Jasmine Crockett. I mean, Jasmine Crockett never went on TV and said God is non binary, okay? There, there is not a leftist socialist, Marxist position that James Talarico doesn't hold. He's the most radical liberal extremist to ever run for any statewide office in the state of Texas, okay? He liter during the Biden border invasion. His border plan was to roll out the red carpet for the invading illegal aliens. Okay? James Talarico, the seminarian. After 2000 years of Christendom, he has claimed he has discovered the true meaning of the biblical narrative of Joseph and Mary and that's to justify elective abortion, okay? He refuses to call women women. He calls them, quote, neighbors with uteruses. This is a guy who is. One of his top policy priorities is, I'm not making this up, transgender abortion care. And this is the guy who filed bill after bill to force unconstitutionally discriminatory DEI down the throats of young school children in K12 public schools in the state of Texas. This guy is as radical as they come. And I know the Ken Paxton team is working on this, but they've got to get the word out because let me tell you, when Texans learn of this guy's radical view, it's not like he's just a little bit outside of the mainstream here in the state of Texas. He is the furthest left candidate we've ever seen on a ballot anywhere in the state of Texas. And he must be defeated.
Steve Bannon
And he still holds positions propped up by Republican senior leadership in the Texas House. Is that correct?
Brian Harrison
He. He still, he's. He is our speaker. After James Talarico helped elect our Republican speaker, our Republican speaker rewarded him. Most conservative Republicans, maybe you're on two committees in Texas. James Talarico, four committees. And by the way, after he pushed legislation for DEI on K12 kids, he made him. He put him on the committee to oversee education policy. And worse, he's in House leadership. He is the co chairman of two of the most powerful committees in the Texas House. And James Talarico's legislation was prioritized. James Talarico went on CBS News and unfortunately he didn't have to lie. He bragged that he has passed. James Talarico, radical, Marxist, leftist, socialist, progressive. He has passed over 60 bills off the floor in the Texas House of Representatives. Meanwhile, conservative Republicans in the Texas house haven't passed 60 combined. Under the purview, the leadership of our fake Republican leadership.
Steve Bannon
Disgusting.
Brian Harrison
In the Texas House. Corruption. I would actually argue it's the worst form of voter fraud because voters gave Republican a 26 seat majority in the Texas House. But Democrats were actually put in charge instead of conservative Republicans. And James Talarico, right now, as we speak, still holds multiple leadership positions in the Texas House. And as we speak. By the way, Stephen, the most powerful person in the chamber, our parliamentarian. Yeah. A Barack Obama White House lawyer, is the most powerful person in the Texas right now, thanks to our fake Republicans.
Steve Bannon
What is your social media? What is your social media? We got to bounce. What's your social media? I want people to go to your Twitter feed.
Brian Harrison
At Brian E. Harrison on X. Piss off a rhino. Go follow like and share. At Brian E. Harrison on X. At Brian E. Harrison on X Posse. Love you guys. You're great. Stay in the fight with us. We're going to save Texas.
Steve Bannon
We're going to save Texas. We're going to come back to you and get an action plan of actually having the posse put massive pressure. Okay, we've got Byron Donalds and Paul Renner. Paul's in the second hour. The Congressman Byron Donalds. We're going to pivot to the free state of Florida. Florida next in the war room,
Kobe (Medicare Advisor)
you
Steve Bannon
don't wait until your house is on fire to install a smoke detector. And you don't wait until the wind and rain hammer your windows and the power goes out to prepare for a hurricane. And you don't reach for your seat belt after the impact because after the crash, the hurricane or the house fire, it's too late. Similarly, you don't wait until the dollar goes to zero before you buy gold. It's too late. Then diversify with precious metals and diversify now because you never know what will threaten your savings next. Persistent inflation, a weakening dollar, unexpected financial disruptions. You don't know what's coming, but you can take preventative steps and you can take them today. Do that right now by requesting a free information kit on gold from my friends at Birch Gold Group. Just text my name, Bannon B A N N O N to the number 989-898. There is no cost and no obligation, just straightforward information on how you can diversify your savings. Even an IRA or 401k with gold. I trust Birch Gold. You should trust them, too. Text Bannon at 989-898. Take action and do it today. War Room, here's your host, Stephen K. Band. Welcome back. Want to bring on a guy I've known for a long time and a really good man, Congressman Byron Donalds. Congressman in the House. There was a moment there, I thought that we in the, in the chaos, I think of early 22, that you might have a shot to be speaker and there's a lot of people that backed you during the tumultuous time. Why? I understand you love Florida, but tell us why you would leave the House where you've got a shot to be in leadership, to take on, to actually go from the federal level and then follow, I think. And look, I was Ron DeSantis biggest critic when he ran against President Trump, but I think he's a very good governor to take on. A very tough act to follow, sir.
Byron Donalds
Very simple, Steve. Florida needs to make sure that we continue to be the number one state in all of America. And if you look at my background, obviously the last six years on Capitol Hill, battling the left, whether it was even dealing with House leadership, working with House leadership to put together the best packages that could actually get across the floor in the House of Representatives. But even my time in the state legislature, I spent four years in the state legislature in Tallahassee. I crafted the first bill of its kind that allowed community members to find out about the woke indoctrination that was in front of our kids. And that was back in 2017 when I was in the state House. Rick Scott signed that into law. And plus my background, I spent 17 years in the financial industry. And Florida's next governor is going to have to be a true conservative, someone committed to the principles of liberty, but also be business minded in order to guide Florida into the future where we expand our economy and continue to be the number one state in America. So that's why looking at the race and looking at the job, I decided to throw my hat in the ring and it's gone very well. And the 12 days the voters of Florida are going to decide the Republican nominee for governor.
Steve Bannon
Talk to us about that for a second. You see the Texas and Florida have as growth states have different challenges than other people. Part of that is that so many people and industries want to move to Florida, particularly the finance industry. You know, you see in Texas they're going to start the Texas Stock Exchange in Dallas and you got Ken Griffin and tons of hedge fund guys moving to and institutions moving down to South Florida, Miami kind of driven out of there, out of New York. How do you balance it? I mean, Florida's got such a great culture, a great history. It's such a unique place that so many Floridians have lived. And you know, Florida is a blue collar and a middle class state. How do you balance this new demand where kind of not just the world's wealthy, but the nation's wealthy want to move down? Is that in your administration? How are you going to handle to make sure that doesn't change all of those great attributes that make Florida Florida?
Byron Donalds
We remind people who choose Florida that you've come for a reason. And that's because you want to be in a common sense state with a low regulatory environment that just follows the law. We are going to uphold a law. Law and order is going to be the standard in our state. And those are the bedrock principles, Steve, that has really made Florida so attractive to so many who've decided to move their businesses. They are fleeing from The Democrat socialist in New York, in Chicago, in California, they're saying enough is enough. And what we found is that when they come to Florida, they are understanding the fact that they had to leave crazy Democrat blue jurisdictions, and they want to embrace the free market conservatism and quite frankly, the quality of life that has come to be known here in Florida. I think in terms of balance, we still need to protect our agricultural lands. They're critical to Florida's future because we feed half the country, especially when it gets cold up north. It's our environment and our waterways. They need to continue to be beautiful and vibrant for the future, not just of Florida's economy, but for the future of Florida overall. So we are going to strike that balance while having to figure out the road, infrastructure and some of the housing issues that we do have so that young people in particular can get a shot at really building that Florida dream, buying a home and starting a family for themselves.
Steve Bannon
You know, as you remember, we were one of the biggest critics of Governor DeSantis when he decided to run against President Trump. And we just thought, hey, it's essential that President Trump have a shot to come back here. But I do think Governor DeSantis has been an extraordinary governor. What lessons do you take from Ron DeSantis to say, hey, look, this, these are the types of things, not simply policies, but the way he handles his job, I want to continue. And what, what are the differences that Byron Doddles is going to make when you look at it? Say, hey, look, I got other skills. What is compare and contrast? What are you going to take and then what are you going to jettison?
Byron Donalds
Well, first is how Governor DeSantis was no nonsense when it came to doing what was right on behalf of the people of Florida. Take COVID 19. Steve, you remember how crazy it was. Every public health establishment figure wanted to shut down all 50 states. Governor DeSantis looked at the data, and at that time, it was not popular. Even in some parts of Florida at that time, it was not popular to issue the orders to be open. But he looked at the data, he made a decision, and he wasn't concerned about what the press and the polling were saying. He did what was right. And if you're going to lead our state into the future, that's the lesson you learn from Ron DeSantis. And by the way, contrast that with the Democrat in the race, David Jolly. This is a guy who fled Florida. When Ron DeSantis opened our state and kept our state open, he left, he took his family, he went to Pennsylvania and He criticized Ron DeSantis over Zoom when he was doing TV hits for MSNBC and CNN. That's not the type of leadership our state needs going into the future, Steve. It's just not, I think, in terms of what I bring. Like I said, Governor DeSantis, tremendous career, tremendous service to our country. He was a JAG officer and so he served our nation. My career was in finance and in business. And so I think for a lot of Floridians who are concerned about how are we going to balance and manage the growth that's coming to our state, you do need a governor who understands economic systems, understands capital flow and business formation, so we can bring that balance to maintain the Florida dream that so many of us in our state love.
Steve Bannon
One things we're most impressed with Governor DeSantis, you know, as you said during COVID it really became the free state of Florida under his guidance and really stood up in tough times. He's taken a very strong stand against AI. I mean, he's really the leader of stopping of what this preemption issue is, where the tech boligarchs wanting to have no guardrails, total free reign as accelerationists. He's taken, I think, a very reasoned approach. And really, quite frankly, if it wasn't for desantis and the power that Florida brings, I think we'd be in a very tough place with AI. Talk to us about your, the benefits and your concerns about artificial intelligence. What the governor has done really to stop kind of this national accelerationist move and how does that play? Back to this issue with data centers, which you know from Mike Rogers in Michigan. Governor Abbott today just put a moratorium on data centers until they're more reviewed about the grid down there. Talk to us about Governor DeSantis AI data centers and what can we expect out of Governor Byron Donalds?
Byron Donalds
Well, look, I'm glad you asked because, you know, a lot of people say a lot of things. Let me tell you exactly my position. Number one, we want to create a regulatory framework in Florida. The governor tried to move an AI Bill of rights during the last legislation legislative session. It wasn't able to get through. But there are about nine of those pillars that he had in that legislation. I agree with the biggest ones among them. We got to protect kids. We can't have kids just essentially be exposed to these chatbots with no filters, no controls. Number two, you got to put parents in charge of this stuff. You need parents need to be able to see what's going on with their Children in these chat bots. A big one for a lot of us in Florida, regardless of your political party name, image and likeness protections. We've all seen the videos. I mean, there's videos about me that are made by, you know, with AI. People who oppose me make AI videos. And that's all well and good, you're running for governor, but we want to make sure that people's name, image and likeness are being protected. I think when it comes to data centers. Governor DeSantis already signed into law Senate Bill 44. What it requires is that the electricity bills for the people of Florida will not go up if a hyperscale data center is constructed in our state. The other thing that piece of legislation did, it required a consumptive use permit from the water management districts, limiting the ability to just take our water with no repercussions whatsoever. So it contains the water issues in our state. What I would want to see those systems, those data centers would need a closed loop filtration system or they would have to be air cooled. That way they're not just continuing to take some of Florida's precious water resources from the people of Florida. Last piece is proximity. You can't have them next to residential neighborhoods. We're not going to let that happen in Florida. And I think if you go back to the regulatory environment, you know, people have always asked me, you're endorsed by President Trump. Where do you guys disagree? Are you going to represent Florida? And actually, one of the disagreements was with this national move for a regulatory framework in D.C. i mean, first, Steve, you know, how are you going to get that through the Senate? We already are having issues getting common sense, things like the Save America act through the Senate. So if you're going to do a federal AI policy, a federal AI regulation, you're now negotiating with Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders to get that done. And with all due respect, I don't trust them in those negotiations. So I think this is where Florida is going to lead. We're going to create a regulatory framework
Steve Bannon
in our state and you're going to create a regulatory. You're going to create a regulatory system and you're going to be at the lead of pushing this through town because Tallahassee is just one scale down, one level down from tough to get stuff done. Correct.
Byron Donalds
It's tough, but there's ways to get that done. And so I've already started talking with legislative leadership in the House and in the Senate on this issue issue. We're going to get an AI Bill of Rights and AI regulatory framework done in Tallahassee for the state of Florida. And Steve, to be honest, I think once you have that in place, other states are going to look at that and say, well, Florida did it, we need to do it too. And so when it comes to AI, I think that Florida needs to be the leader because we've seen what's happened in too many of our industries. California has led, New York has led. And it's been terrible policy that has moved through states across the country.
Steve Bannon
Congressman, we've got about a minute left. Where do people go? To find out more about you, more about your campaign, more about how you see what's your vision for the future of Florida, particularly when it deals with high finance and high tech, sir, go
Byron Donalds
to byron donalds.com follow me on all the socials. Yrondonalds listen, my job and mission is clear. We want Florida to continue to be the best state in America. We're going to continue to be the free state of Florida. And Steve, you know, when I'm long gone from politics, I want people to still marvel that Florida is number one. I want to still marvel that Florida is number one. We want it to continue to be the best state in the entire United States. And we want young people to be able to build their Florida dream in
Steve Bannon
our state, the free state of Florida. Congressman Byron McDonald, thank you, sir. Thank you. Dropping by the war room.
Byron Donalds
Thank you, Steve. A long time.

I asked Kobe to change around his workday and join us. Hey Kobe. This announcement, people are very confused about this. It's kind of Medicare announcement of what's going to be covered, what's not going to be covered, what's going to be paid for, what's not going to be paid for. Because as you know, Medicare is so mind numbingly complicated. Explain what's been announced by the Trump administration, what's happening and then how people can calm down, take a deep breath, call 845-chAPTER and talk to you guys what's going on because my phone's been blown up by people.
Kobe (Medicare Advisor)
Yeah, thanks for having me, Steve. There's a lot of confusion, understandably. So it's important that people, as you said, just call 845 War Room and we can walk them through all the changes. But in summary, what's happening is the Trump administration has pulled back some Biden era subsidies on part D prescription plans, which means that it is likely that premiums and co pays on just part D prescription plans might increase going into 2027. So this fall when people make new plan selections. So the best way to mitigate that and to make sure that you're getting the best plan for your needs and saving as much money as possible is to give us a call at 845-W-R-A- Room and we can walk you through your options, make sure that you're on the right plan, have the health coverage you need and save as much money as possible.
Steve Bannon
So I just want to make sure people should just take a deep breath. This kind of came out, it did kind of come out of nowhere. Right. But take a deep breath, there's time. But you should act today. And I just want to make sure because this is the great feedback we got. There's no charge and no obligation. You guys will walk you through that and then people can make up their own mind. Sir.
Kobe (Medicare Advisor)
That's right. We never charge for our services. All of our team are highly trained and licensed Medicare advisors who are just here to make sure you have the right Medicare plan for your needs. And so with these changes from the administration and there are a lot of other changes going on in the Medicare ecosystem as well that I won't. I won't bore you all with, but a lot of these changes present opportunities for people to optimize their Medicare plan and save money.
Steve Bannon
No, see, that's the key is that this changes all the time. And that's why you gotta go 8. Just go to 845-wharam. This is a hotline setup for the Warren posse. Save folks over a million dollars a day. But it's not just the savings. It's. You get into the optimum plan. That's what I think most people are worried about. Do I have the plan that really. Am I right? Network, right doctors, right. Costs, right. You know, everything that I need is. And this is why I think chapter's been such a huge hit with the war room posse. 845 war room. And you will walk. There's plenty of time. Everybody should take a deep breath, but if they act today, we're good. Kobe.
Kobe (Medicare Advisor)
That's right. Plenty of time. Give us a call. You'll get connected to one of our teammates. They'll answer all your questions. Spend as much time as you need on the phone and make sure you're on the right plan. There's no obligation. We never charge. And we have a line dedicated to the posse. And the feedback has been amazing, and we're. We're very fortunate to support this audience.
Steve Bannon
Okay, and once again, it's 845-war room. That's your hotline. Somehow I've done this twice now. Said chapter. 845 war room call today. It's a hotline. Talk to Kobe and the team. Kobe, thanks. And thanks for changing up the day. I wanted to get you on here this afternoon. So many people have been asking about this, and you're. You're. You're our expert. I never answer the questions that. Hang on. Let me get Kobe and the team on. And your team's been fantastic. We love working with them. So thank you so much, sir. 845 War Room. That's your hotline. No obligation, totally free. Talk to Kobe and the team. They'll set it all right. They'll give you options. Okay. Want to thank Colby and the team over there. Nothing could be more important than unwinding, maybe a bad situation, getting a Medicare. I started the show today. We went to Texas and Florida. We're going to End the show. Today in Arizona, Maricopa county of explosive report coming from John Solomon. Of course, there's a lot more Solomon's drop in bombs every day. Yesterday dropped a bomb. I just don't know. Are we going to wait is it for Todd to get confirmed and then we're going to start rolling these people up? Perp walking. Think about what the deep state went after. President Trump as a Russian asset, a Russian asset when he was commander in chief, not, not in the, not in the election. And actually as a Russian asset during his administration, his first administration. This has to be answered. This is like the stealing of the 2020. It's like the pandemic. These are massive issues. The Senate just held Fauci in contempt. Of course we'll see if Fauci is treated like Peter Navarro myself. I don't really jump on that topic very much, but we'll see if it's, if he's handled like Peter Navarro myself, I'm actually a belief that Fauci should go to prison for the rest of his life and should die in prison for what he did during the pandemic. Right. And I haven't really walked you through the story of how he switched, illegitimately switched the whole gain of function, how he went behind the scenes during the Trump's first term. One thing I want everybody focus. Why starting in Texas, why starting in Florida? And by the way, we're going to have Paul Renner, a former naval officer, in fact a former surface warfare officer. So you know, that's close to my heart. Paul's going to be the speaker. Former speaker of the House will be at the top of the hour tomorrow. We're going to have Fishback. And Fishback has been generating a lot of heat in Florida, particularly among disaffected young people. And disaffected young people may be central to this upcoming campaign. Folks, we've got to look at the what the reality could be here. Trump won in a Sweeping Landslide in November 24th because of you. Not tech bros, not Elon's money, which helped enormously. You a massive grassroots insurgency that really brought someone back from the political dead of having been impeached twice and run out of the Capitol and the election stolen and all the forces of the world against him on your shoulders. You drove this victory. I think the day November 3rd in was it 89. In a wake up that evening, you could have three, at least three things that would be evident. Could be Mandami, a Marxist Ugandan Marxist jihadist. That should be denaturalized is running New York City and is the rising political power with this Marxist jihadism. Abdul is the senator in Michigan, the great industrial powerhouse of Detroit and Henry Ford and mass production. And what that meant the victory In World War II, as Arthur Herman tells us. Besides, on top of the valor and courage of our troops, the country came together and made us the arsenal for democracy. From where? Where is the railhead of that. Wait for it, Detroit. So Abdul coming out of radical Dearborn, which is a city, you know, like Mecca or Medina right now. So you have Islamic city with a radical Islam, Marxist, no ice, no borders. He's senator from Michigan, the. The. The centerpiece of the industrial Midwest. And Talarico, who is a freak, is the senator from Texas. So how did we get here and how do we reverse this? How we got here is quite simple. We took our eye off the ball of what got us the sweeping victory. Let's just keep it simple. The American people support those policies, and they support President Trump as the one. They want to execute those policies. What have we done? Look at the Senate came and passed the Save America Act. We've had all these massive revelations now about what the deep state has done. You've had these revelations about Fauci. People want action. They want accountability. They want perp walks. Where is it? They voted for mass deportations. Not just the bad hombres. Not just the bad hombres. And yes, the president miraculously shut down the border in 30 days. It showed what a lie it was on this invasion. A total bald face lie. You saw that President Trump. But that's very tenuous. We know that as soon as the Democrats take over, they can strip it all out. And we're back to where we started it. And Ben Berkwam and others are telling you and Todd Bensman, who spent a year in the administration, is now back out. He says, hey, there's a whole army ready to come across the border. We're not out of these asylum situations. We're not out of this. These migration packs. The New York Post about Mullins. Oh, Steve Bannon. What they're gonna, you know, these little people nibbling at the heels. The New York Post. I'm gonna be blonde about the New York Post. You're owned by someone that we should denaturalize immediately. They got a bunch of Australians, a bunch of progressive Australians and now English and said, oh, no, they're American citizens. No, please stop in the middle of the night so that he could buy the Fox Network. Now Fox News was over a Decade away from even being launched. More than a decade. I think back in the 80s, Murdoch and his power move was to buy the Fox network. Well, to own a broadcast network, you have to be a citizen of the United States of America. And guess what? He was not a citizen of the United States of America. So how did it do it in the middle of the night? And this is just the way power works, baby. He became a citizen of the United States. This kind of got it done. He needs to be denaturalized immediately. I even say if he died, you go dig him up and denaturalize him. He's nothing but scum. And one of the reasons that we could have Abdul in the Senate from Michigan, in tall, Rico in the Senate from Texas, and you got Mandami already running the deal in the greatest city in the world, the financial capital of the world, is caused the controlled opposition of Fox News and the whole crowd over there, you got one or two have been okay, but by and large, you go look at the policies that they have backed for decade after decade after decade. It's the same neoliberal, neocon policies has got us in this. It is not America first. They're not nationalists. They hate populism. So New York Post, shove that up your ass, okay? You're owned by a bunch of progressive Australians that we're going to denaturalize and we got to dig him up after he's dead. We'll dig him up after he's dead, like they dug up Cromwell and we'll denaturalize him. How about that? Suck on that. What the new. What the Fox News has done has been completely and totally destructive. They supported every war, including the jammer in now in the Middle east. Who are the biggest cheerleaders? Remember, let's go back in time. Just go back the first day of the 12 Day War. Oh, my Lord, you would have thought it was the evening of the Normandy invasion. Oh, it's so great to get all their people out there. So amazing. This is so incredible. It's so great. It's so terrific. And guess what we had to do. We had to pull the Israelis out of the fire. Why? As we said on the show, they sent destroyers and cruisers to the eastern Mediterranean that had missile defenses that now the commander, the cheat, the. The. The combatant commander in that sector says we can't do it anymore because there aren't enough missiles we unloaded to save the Israelis because they bit off more than they could chew. They tried to do a decapitation strike and thank God President Trump came in and said, no, I'm of a total obliteration of the nuclear plan. 12 day war. Fox was the cheerleader of that. Like they were cheerleader in Iraq and cheerleader in Afghanistan. And here's why I detest them so much. Because as soon as it becomes uncomfortable, as soon as the ratings dip a little bit, they run away from these foreign wars and who they let solve it. The working men and women of this country, their children were the Fox News all over the wars for 20 years. No, they were not. They bailed out as soon as it didn't rate. Because with Ailes and Murdoch, at the end of the day, it's all about ratings. So, yes, you've backed off and around President Trump and around the advisors of God. Oh, you can't say mass deportations. You can't say that. You must not say that word. That was the term that got us the sweeping victory. If you stick to the policies and execute on the policies that he run in 24, we would have another sweeping landslide. And we will pick up House seats and, and we pick up Senate seats and we have more power going to 28 that we're going to extend the administration after that. This is not quantum mechanics, but when you bait and switch and don't do it, you've got grassroots walking. Just ask the audience how many people come up to you. I can't do it anymore. I can't do it anymore. Trump's policies are right and he's the right man in this moment in time to execute it. But you got all the forces of the Republican Party in their donor class. The forever wars and the forever spending. Next in the war room. Most Americans are forced to spend too much money on health care and getting too little in return.

I'm serious about this denaturalization. I got three right of the box. Mandami denaturalizing, lied, got his papers. Elmo Elon Musk denaturalizing. Oh, how could he do as a greatest engineer. Let me go be an engineer someplace else. You're going to get all you Elon fanboys. You're going to get all the Elon you want. They're going to drop a billion shares, excuse me, 991 million shares, I think next week on a complete stock scam. And I have not shorted the stock. I actually was thinking of shorting the stock because people are going to make a fortune in that. Already have, but I have not. I stay out of that. But it's a complete. It's a complete scam. If I, when I was at Goldman Sachs back in the 80s, you'd been fired for working drafting that IPO. Of course, Elon said yesterday in this total debacle, oh, well, you know, we're going to get to a trillion dollars in revenue. There's $7 billion now with the whole thing. They're gonna. We're gonna get to a trillion dollars of revenue, and it's gonna come a year early. It's gonna be 2030 instead of 2031. That's not gonna stop people heading for the exits. And now you got the lockups coming out. And they've got a couple of celebrities, think sports stars or whatever, that own, you know, 150,000 to a thousand. They go, yeah, when it, when my lockup leaves, boom, I'm, I'm throwing, I'm selling it all. So we'll see what happens next week. So denaturalize him because everybody knows he lied about his citizenship and then. And then Murdoch. Hey, if you're gonna. I'm all for deporting all of them and having a 10 year moratorium on a legal quote unquote, the scams. Illegal immigration. Why? Because we put American citizens first and the country first. If you want to put American citizens first, you want to put this generation under 40 that has no family formation, can't buy a home, nothing better than a Russian serf. And that's what we allowed this country to become. Well, no, I want American citizens doing that. Not guys, not progressives from Australia like the Murdoch family. And the kids are ten times worse, right? They're all English. Not. Not some guy from South Africa that's pushing the H1B program non stop and wants nothing but government contracts. No bid government contracts. And a Ugandan Marxist jihadist. That's what we got. You like that on November 3rd. On the evening of the election, folks, brace for this. Unless the grassroots gets motivated and starts going door to door. Exactly how we won 24. Huge victory could be before us. We got the horses. We have great grassroots leaders. You got MAGA. MAGA's not deterred. And you know, there's manifestos here. There's all kind of stuff going. No, no, no, no, no. Just with ultimate clarity, focus on the target. You're like Jimmy Doolittle going over for 30 seconds over Tokyo, right? There's all kind of flak going, all kind of. No, no, no. That's all diversion. Just focus on the freaking target. And what has Maga shown since 2015, since the 15 to 16 primary and every election since then, except for 2018, that there have been victory because they put their shoulder to the wheel and delivered because they believe in Trump and they believe in Trumpism and they believe in populist nationalism full stop. Not neoliberal, neocon, and not. We got sucked into this war. It's a disgrace. But hey, we are where we are today. We're going to see on Hermuz. Hey, I don't know what I'm reading, what I'm hearing. I think the Oman and, and, and, and the Persians have cut their own deal on Hormuz. And a condition precedent for that deal is we got to remove the fleet. Hang on for a second. I'm not so sure that works. And I don't, you know, I don't know how we had a, a paragraph in the MoU that gave Oman a seat at the table. What are we doing? What are we doing? The threat to this country ain't in downtown Tehran. It's in the mayor's office in. It's in the mayor's office in. It's in the mayor's office in. In New York City, it's running for the Senate. In Michigan, it's Talarico, all of it. And they could all be in charge on the evening.
Kobe (Medicare Advisor)
You.
Steve Bannon
You give me. Who, who do I got? Oh, good. We're just, we're just rolling right now. By the way, I am a Cromwell guy. I don't mind chopping a few heads off kings, monarchs. Hey, just my reading of history, okay? Just my reading of history and I realized Cromwell's anti Catholic and all the anti Catholic. I got it. I got it. But they wanted to kill what he stood for. You know what they did? They dug him up. I think they poisoned him first, but they dug him up and put him on trial. I'm not saying we have to do that, but we're going to denaturalize them and we got to dig him up. Oh, he's an old man. He's 94 years old now. He's satanic, demonic. What they've done to this country. Dig them up and denaturalize them. Trevor Comstock, let's end on a positive note, although I think that's kind of positive. Talk to me about sacred human health, sir.
Trevor Comstock
Yeah. Great to see you, Steve. So today I just wanted to touch on one of our more popular products I haven't talked about in a while, but our multi collagen supplement, just because we've been having amazing reviews on it from people that have had a lot of success with it for a while. So again, I just want to touch on the benefits of it, but most people don't realize this, but after the age of 25, natural collagen production starts to slow down quite a bit. So over time, this can just lead to common signs of aging like wrinkles, weaker joints, as well as digestive issues. But collagen does play a huge role in maintaining overall health. So, you know, if you are looking to support the healthy aging, improve skin hydration or maintain stronger joints, collagen is a pretty simple yet effective way you can do that. And what's great about our collagen is that it is formulated with three different sources of collagen. So you do get Types 11 through 5 collagen, which is the full spectrum. So with that, as I mentioned, our unique blend helps, you know, support everything from the healthy skin, hair, nails, all the way to joint health and gut function. So I rarely talk about this product, but it's probably our third most popular product and I just wanted to touch on it because the reviews I was sifting through have been awesome. So I encourage people to check that one out.
Steve Bannon
The review, the reviews are awesome for all the products. It's where do people go? I want them to read the reviews, immerse themselves in the information. They make their decision. But they'll become lifetime customers as reviews. So where do they go real quickly? Where do they go to read these reviews of the products?
Trevor Comstock
Yeah, you can go to sacredhumanhealth.com and then you can always use code war room for 10% off any one time order.
Steve Bannon
Thank you, brother Trevor. Thank you so much.
Trevor Comstock
Thank you.
Steve Bannon

Date: August 6, 2026
Host: Steve Bannon
Key Guests: Brian Harrison (Texas State Rep.), Byron Donalds (Congressman, FL), Trevor Comstock, Kobe (Medicare Advisor)
This episode is a fast-paced, fiery discussion about the fight against entrenched political establishments, the threat of "forever wars" and "forever spending," and the grassroots movement pushing for accountability and bold conservative governance. Steve Bannon is joined by Texas lawmaker Brian Harrison, Florida gubernatorial candidate Byron Donalds, and several others to dissect key state and national political battles, including concerns over leadership in Texas, the growth and challenges in Florida, looming policy fights, and the galvanizing potential of the MAGA base.
[01:08 – 14:40]
“Democrats have never wielded more power under a Republican Speaker than they do right now.” (Brian Harrison, [03:37])
"If Republicans would start acting like Republicans...I think it would be a landslide."
— Brian Harrison ([09:46])
[17:02 – 27:32]
“If you're going to lead our state into the future, that's the lesson you learn from Ron DeSantis.” ([21:04])
“We want Florida to continue to be the best state in America... We want young people to be able to build their Florida dream.”
— Byron Donalds ([27:03])
[36:03 – 49:49]
“New York Post, shove that up your ass, okay? You're owned by a bunch of progressive Australians that we're going to denaturalize…” ([44:35])
“If you stick to the policies and execute on the policies that he run in 24, we would have another sweeping landslide.”
— Steve Bannon ([46:11])
[30:13 – 32:36]
[50:46 – 53:02]
Brian Harrison:
"Democrats have never wielded more power under a Republican speaker than they do right now under our fake Republican who was put in charge by Talarico." ([03:37])
Steve Bannon:
"Have they taken away a parking spot? Have they moved an office?... The parking spots remain untouched." ([05:18])
Byron Donalds:
"You’ve come [to Florida] for a reason. You want to be in a common sense state with a low regulatory environment that just follows the law." ([19:05])
Steve Bannon (on establishment media & politicians):
"New York Post, shove that up your ass, okay? You're owned by a bunch of progressive Australians that we're going to denaturalize..." ([44:35])
The tone throughout the episode is combative, urgent, and deeply populist. Bannon and his guests deploy frank, confrontational language, especially when discussing the failures of the GOP establishment and their perceived betrayal of grassroots conservative voters. Calls for accountability are non-negotiable, and the importance of grassroots action is repeatedly hammered home.
| Segment | Time (MM:SS) | |-------------------------------------------------|--------------| | Opening Rant / Texas GOP gripes (Harrison) | 00:02–14:40 | | Florida candidate Byron Donalds interview | 17:02–27:32 | | Medicare policy update (Kobe) | 30:13–32:36 | | Bannon: MAGA, Fox, Forever Wars commentary | 36:03–49:49 | | Product/supplement pitch (Comstock) | 50:46–53:02 |
This episode is a must-listen if you want an unfiltered look at state vs. national GOP infighting, populist conservative priorities, and the kind of rhetoric fueling the 2026 electoral cycle. Even those new to Bannon’s War Room will gain insight into the political divides, especially in Texas and Florida, and the strategies MAGA leaders believe will fuel future victories.
