Ryan Bridge
Let's go, let's go. The Lonnie's going, that's us.
Steve Bannon
This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people. Reasons I got a free shot. All these networks lying about the people. The people have had a belly full of it. I know you don't like hearing that.
Ryan Bridge
I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it.
Steve Bannon
It's going to happen.
Host (possibly Steve Bannon or a co-host)
And where do people like that go
Ryan Bridge
to share the big lie? Maga Media I wish in my soul,
Steve Bannon
I wish that any of these people, out of conscience, ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose? If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved. War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Ban.
Host (possibly Steve Bannon or a co-host)
First of May, Anno Domini 2026, Harnwell here at the helm on Steve Bannon's War Room. Good evening. Well, the reason I wanted to play the whole of that footage there, the full two minutes as the cold open of the show, is because if you hadn't seen it, you wouldn't have believed it. That is footage taken from the 23rd of April, St. George's Day, just a few days ago, from my beloved homeland, the uk. And the whole procession lasted some several hours to go through two hours, I think they blocked the traffic for. And it went on for three and a half miles. And the press are already dubbing that the world's largest St. George's Day parade. And I know, like from either side of the Atlantic, one can occasionally get slightly dispirited with the negative news that's coming out. And we went for the whole two minutes there because something is changing, something is happening not only in the United States, which leads the way on the populist nationalist fund, but also in the uk. A lot of bad things coming out of the uk Sometimes I don't know whether the country is savable, but you see these patriots coming out, ordinary working families coming out with huge pride in their country, their patron saint, their flag. And you think, well, as bad as the, or perhaps even as bad as the government gets. And they're all largely the same Tories and the Labour Party. But as bad as those political parties are, the country is finding its voice and fighting back. And to talk me through what happened on St. George's Day, we have Ryan Bridge, a beloved figure in the English patriotic movement and I think a real rising star from Raise the Colors. We had Ryan on just a couple of weeks ago explaining how he was banished from the whole entire county of Oxfordshire. I noticed, Ryan, that some of the left wing, supposedly anti racist agitators tried to get Raise the Colors banned as co organizer, co sponsor of this, of this conference and it failed spectacularly. And you guys were basically responsible along with the other, the outlaws. I think the vintage cars and motorcycles which we saw in the clip, you guys were responsible for lining the whole of the 3 1/2 mile stretch on either side of the road with English flags. That's like seven miles in total. Huge, mammoth task. And that just shows you, I think, the dedication of the movement that is Raised the Colors. One of my favorite movements in the uk. Now Ryan, tell us about what we saw just down on the footage, the atmosphere and what went down on the 23rd.
Ryan Bridge
Well, I'm still buzzing and I'll just say firstly, thanks for having us on. Hello to everybody. So, as you know, also, Raise the Colors are a movement where we are patriots. We love a bit of unity, bit of patriot, bit of togetherness. And we want to make our country great again, really. We want to save, we want to try and save what we think is going to be an atrocity of what's going on from weak governments and weaker borders. So we're trying to bring a bit of togetherness back and show people of the UK that it's okay to fly the flag of your country. Your country. You're not a fascist, you're not a Nazi, you're not a racist, you're just a patriot of your country. And you don't believe that These near on open borders that we've got is right. So we've come together and we. People are saying we've hijacked days like St. George's Day. Well, if that's the case, then so be it. But if you look at these pictures now, you will see people from all walks of life coming together under the flag of our country, in our country to celebrate St. George's Day, which realistically, this should be the norm and it's not the norm in our country at the moment. And, and we're trying to bring that back. So, you know, we, this was actually on the 26th because we've done it on a Sunday so we could get a bit more traction. But on the 23rd, which was last Thursday, we went out and we'd done our parade for that day, but we thought we'd get more traction if we went over on a weekend. So we, we line the streets for. Took us over a week with cherry pickers and we, we raised flags. We raised more than 700 flags on Lamp posts up and down that, that main stretch road. And we got it done with help from volunteers from all over the Raise the Colors movement that come up from Shrewsbury, Oxford. These people come from all over the country to come and help us get this event ready. And then obviously the event's been going on for 21 years and the guy who's run the event and he's, you know, he said, I'm getting on a bit, it's really hard. He said, no, look at raise the colours. I like what you guys do. Will you come and help us? And we've turned it into literally hundreds of people turning up to thousands. And it was to get that many people there. It really took me and it gave me hope and I was so glad that it's the start of this summer because the momentum we had from last summer with the winter coming in in England sort of killed the momentum and now we're back and we're fighting fit and we are going to go for it and we're really going to try and save our country
Host (possibly Steve Bannon or a co-host)
now. Ryan, I don't know if you saw that was. It was in the Guardian yesterday, the Vote. Gavin Lyle film of 15 minutes long made by an Oscar winner as far as I'm aware. They mention. I saw it, I, I laughed out loud some of it. But you can see this is the liberal establishment. When they've tried everything else, they're now going into ridicule. They even mentioned race, the colors in there and there's lots of signaling there that basically the whole movement, it was basically around a fictitious reform UK style candidate. But the idea is that there's a bubbling under the level, latent level of racism right across that movement. And what you're seeing there, what you said, what you said to the Daily Express, what you've said here on the show, what you can see here on the footage that absolutely contradicts what the liberal established, the slurs, the racist slurs that the, that the liberal establishment is trying to throw at you. Tell me a bit if you will, about their tactics. Trying to get the organization to get the organizers to boot you guys off as co organizers and co sponsors.
Ryan Bridge
So obviously we've got a massive problem not only in the UK but in Europe with the, and I have to put a pigment of skin to this. It's the white middle class liberal left, the are the people that you see with articles to try and rip our flags down. It's the white middle class liberal left that are in the, indoctrinating in the universities and campuses and telling these people that if you like your flag of your country that you're perhaps a Nazi, a far right or a racist. It's absolutely ludicrous. And this is happening on a daily basis. On the morning of our parade we had the local, the local newspaper, the local Facebook groups trying to ban me and saying that I have hijacked St. George's Day and celebrating it by putting the flags up. I mean, if you're not allowed to put a flag of your country when you're celebrating it, I just cannot understand what's wrong with these people to say that we, you know, I don't believe in open borders and I believe that your country's built on the values of, and traditions of what, of what our forefathers have done. And I think that they would be turning their graves if they could see the way that not only the UK but the way Europe's going at the moment as well. I recently went to France, we've raised the colors and you know, it's all on our, on our socials and we was in France and Paris was just, it was just like, you know, it was like a city from say the middle of Africa and also, you know, Belgium, Brussels is the same. The Dutch in Holland, they're having the same, they're writing as we speak. And it's the white middle class liberal left sort of governments that seem to be going against us. And it's not about race, religion, color, creed. It's about identity of your own country, in your own country. You know, British pubs, which you well know are a great thing, and they're all being closed down. It's, you know, the farming prices. 40% it was last year. It's now 90% of produce we're looking to get from other countries. So we are going to be starved out if anything, and we're going to be relying on countries like Spain and Belgium and the Brussels thing. It's just ridiculous. And if we want to put a flag up in our country, of our country, I just think to myself, we're not being racist. We're not being called everything homophobic, xenophobia, all these phobics. I've been called every single one for putting a flag up of my country, in my country. And it's just doesn't sit right. You saw what happened in Oxford the other week. And I'm banned from Oxford, I'm banned from going to France. It's just ridiculous.
Host (possibly Steve Bannon or a co-host)
I don't want to put words into your mouth, Ryan, but would you say that when you're called these various slurs one by one, we all know that what the pejoratives are now, but you wear those pejoratives when they're thrown at you as a badge of honor. Right.
Ryan Bridge
Do you know what? It gives us strength.
Host (possibly Steve Bannon or a co-host)
Let me say what I mean by that. This is the argument that Steve Bannon made when he went to France and addressed the, the. The Ramblant national at the invitation of Marine Le Pen. He said, when they call you these things and he went through the list, wear it as a badge of honor because it indicates is an indication that they have no further arguments against you and you've actually won the debate.
Ryan Bridge
Yeah, that's. That's a good way of thinking of it, because if they can just throw a name at you like you're a fascist or a racist, it's you, you. And you know that you're not, and your friends know that you're not and your family know that you're not, and your movement knows that you're not, then if that's all they've got, then they know we are doing something right. So, yeah, it's better where if there's a badge of honor and I'll. I'll take that one with me. So thanks, Steve, for that. But, yeah, it's a good way of putting things. And that's all they can do and say. And if you look at these people, they're the ones that have got the, you know, the masks and the covers and the and you know, the Antifa type style people where, I mean, it's Antifa that are on me at the Moment. Birmingham Antifa for 161161 Antifa in England. Those are on me. They are, they are causing hate. They are phoning my work. They are, they're reading out online where my doctors is the dentist, all the things like that. And it's absolutely just ludicrous how they can get away with it. And I think Antifa should be a band group in, in the UK as
Host (possibly Steve Bannon or a co-host)
it is, as it is prescribed. Please stay with us, Ryan. I'll be back. Just a quick shout out to one of the show's sponsors today. Birch Gold. When the dollar's convertibility into gold ended in 1971, gold was fixed at $35 an ounce. And fast forward to today and the US dollar has lost over 85% of its purchasing power. Gold, on the other hand, has increased in value by over 12,000%. That's why Central banks are buying gold at record levels and it's why major firms like Vanguard and Blackrock hold significant positions in gold. And that's why we at the War Room encourage you to consider diversifying your savings with physical gold from Birch Gold Group. What you've got to do is phone Philip Patrick and his team by sending the name Bannon B A double N o n to 989-898. Again, text Bannon b a n o n to 989-898. Philip Patrick and his team standing by for your call. I'll give you that number. Folks, again towards the the second half of the show. Back now to Ryan Bridge from Raise the colors. For folks at home who didn't catch when Ryan was on the show a few weeks ago, just say again because you have battle scars now in, in the country simply through the presence of your unflinching patriotism in raising the national flag of the country, which is considered by the opposition as a hate crime. Say a little bit once again about how you were arrested a few weeks ago.
Ryan Bridge
I mean, if we take it right the way back, if there's time, if I can take it back to me going to France, I mean, let's look at the source of the problem. It's coming from Europe, it's coming circumnavigating from Africa up to Libya, across Libya, into Italy, across Italy, across Europe to France to Calais. These are people from third world countries. Then they're getting on prepared dinghies and boats coming across the channel 24 miles. Our border force picked them up and when we put them in a five star hotel, give them three meals a day for five years, we give them vouchers to go to sports shops, they've got gymnasiums, they've got driving lessons, dental health, everything, all for free. The people that are directing these people across Europe From Africa, from third world countries are the NGOs, the non government organized outcome, Perth, Calais, hope not, hates, utopia 56 more. More food, less no borders. These people are NGOs and they are the criminals who are circumnavigating people from Europe, sorry, from third world countries, from Africa, from the far Middle east into Europe and across. So I thought while we're raising flags because of the tension, because of what we're under, we're not going to go and do what the left do where they cause a load of hassle and sellotate themselves to lampposts and drill themselves to the road and block off this and block off that. We'll go and put some flags up in our local community. The support we got was unbelievable. And then this was a knock on effect. So much so that people were saying, right, we're going to help you, we're going to give you some donations, get more flags. Can you do this for, can you do that? Right? It's ended up being like a full time job and I absolutely love it. I'm in a fortunate position in my work where I can do this. So we've inherited a cherry pickaxe where we can get the flags louder and prouder and higher. With that we experienced people calling us racists. The people that were calling us racists were from the white middle class, liberal left community. We're like, I didn't realize there was that many people like this in the uk. We would hit certain areas of Birmingham, of Oxford for example, and the place is inundated with people that absolutely hate the flag of their country, hate what their country stands for, hate what their country and forefathers have done and literally hate people like me who love my flag, love my country and believe in close the borders, believing you come through the front door legally with paperwork, documentation and you're vetted. Happy days. But if you're coming through illegally through the back door, well, you're not welcome. They're calling me a fascist and a racist. So I thought, well, I'm going to delve into the problem. We went over the border, we went to France. When I seen that we were giving the French governments near on a billion pounds English sterling, we were giving them a billion pounds. But Then to have a Mark, Mark 2 defender, 5 police officers smoking on the beach and literally a free for all of people from Sudan, Eritrea, Somalia, literally jumping on dinghies, walking into the water, jumping on. And you could literally see their boat, our rescue boat. And we was literally just a tug surface. It was like Uber. It was like an Uber driver. It was, it was mind blowing. So I went there 10 times. Next thing you know, the NGOs and the far left said to me, I put 10 counts into the Dunkirk police. The Dunkirk police force said that I'm interfering with the control of migrants. You just couldn't write this. The stuff that I found that they've had me for theft for was I found some tablets on the beach. But when the migrants ran past us, they threw all their belongings. So I looked in their belongings. They had, they had documentation where they had asylum claims, but they didn't want that. They wanted the fruits from our country, from England, they wanted the fruits from Britain. So they'd got asylum in Belgium, they've got asylum in France, yet they do. That wasn't good enough. They wanted to come and get the fruits from England. So when I went through their bags and found that, I found some tablets. So I've screenshot the tablets. When I got back, I googled what they were. Tuberculosis tablets. As you well know, tuberculosis was eradicated in the UK in, you know, the 70s, early 80s. It was done and dusted. We're getting outbreaks in Amazon factories, outbreaks in ebay factories of tuberculosis in the UK at the moment. So that's another story. With that, I've had the British Home Office deliver me a letter via the French minister, Mr. Nunes, to say that Ryan Bridge is banned from going to France and Northern France territory for 10 years. I've never been arrested, I've never been. All I've done is documented that nothing is happening and we're giving these people near on 4.5 million pound a week. So go on.
Host (possibly Steve Bannon or a co-host)
Okay. So much there to break down. I don't want to.
Ryan Bridge
I know, I know.
Host (possibly Steve Bannon or a co-host)
We only got a few moments left in, in full flow. But I want to underline some of these points. First of all, because you mentioned you're in a position work wise, in order to dedicate time on that. Everything Ryan has told you, the war in Posse today, you can see it all on YouTube. The clips are there. You can see him there on the Normandy beaches. You can see him at his place of work where the police come and harass him at his place of work in front of his customers. It's all there. It's all there on, on video, the original source material. I just got a couple of takeaways from what you said. Right. People are Third World. The third world illegal invasion to the UK that takes place via France mainly because they're all coming in absolute contravention of the Dublin agreement. They're all, they're all coming in and filtering country, country, country, country, via France to the uk claiming asylum in the uk. You, Ryan Bridge, are the person that France doesn't want in the country. You're the person that they're banning. It's not the illegal third world invaders, it's Ryan Bridge that they don't want in the country. That really tells you everything here about how the whole thing is taking place with the active connivance of, of the very people who are mandated to stop it. Just something I do want to say. It is, I use the term. Some people find it controversial. Third world illegal invaders, that's what they are. Many of them are coming as invaders. They're not coming to assimilate, they're not coming to contribute. Some of them are coming to work, they're coming illegally, but they are coming to work and to contribute. But, but many, many are not. And you can see that being reflected in the crime statistics. What I just want to just run past you, Ryan, and ask for your take on this is in as much as the invaders hate, load and detest the culture of the UK and they consider it worthy of being converted to their own religion, as much as that is absolutely true, I do not think it is equal in intensity to the white liberal middle class progressives who are trying to suppress you. It is my thesis that it's, and I think this is what you're saying as well. It's those people who hate the UK more than any other category and what they're doing is they're hiding behind the fact that in their words, the UK is a multicultural country. They're hiding behind their own invention there because they're the people who've created this as a mask to hide the fact of that. They, they are the ones who really hate the uk. They are the ones who really hate the Union Jack and the Union flag and the, the flag of St. George. Is that, is that right? Ryan Bridge?
Ryan Bridge
100. You have got that right. I mean the, the argument that these guys have got is these people are fleeing war torn countries. Well, I'm not being funny, but you know, wherever you go in the country, people are using satellite navigation. These People are from third world countries. There's no education, let alone sanitation, let alone rules, regulations and laws. And these, these fighting age men, these fighting age men are surfing, navigating across 17 safe countries, to flee safe Sudan, to flee Eritrea, Ethiopia, Somalia, to get to it, to get to Britain. And it's for the fruits of what our country is giving these people. And when they get here, they get looked after and they don't get work visa straight away, they have to wait near on five years to get them. And in that time they're sat in five star hotels, three meals a day, roaming the streets. We don't know who these people are, where they've come from, what their backgrounds are, you know, what diseases they've got. Opposite a court case recently where a girl, a very good friend of mine's daughter, got bludgeoned to death. She got stabbed 23 times. 11 of them punctured the skull. This guy in the jack had been in our country from South Sudan 11 weeks. He stabbed her, he took a trophy, he had other trophies around his neck. We don't know what country he was from, we don't know where he'd be, what he'd done. All we do know is he's coming to our country illegally, he's got HIV and He's now got 29 years in prison. I mean, in America he's getting the death penalty, yet we're going to give him 29 years and he's going to be looking for parole when he's 55. It's a complete disgrace what is going on. People and children, they're not safe.
Host (possibly Steve Bannon or a co-host)
It's absolutely disgusting. And what you were saying before about the welcoming, the five star hotels, the three square meals a day, British pensioners who've contributed into the state system their entire lives have to turn their electric heater down to one bar in winter. No funding for them. Ryan Bridge. That's all we have time for. It's absolutely true that the country has been betrayed by its political class. The very people mandated to save it are actively conniving in our faces to betray it. Folks, this only ends when we end it. 20 seconds. Ryan Bridge. Where do people go to to find out more about raise the curse and possibly offer some financial support. You're a patron and as we saw, as we saw from the video footage, a beloved figure in the UK. Where do people go?
Ryan Bridge
Thank you. So, raisethecolors.org.uk or raise the colors official.com for merchandise. We are going back out onto the continent next week. We will not stop. We will not be beaten. I will do all my utmost to fight from one country till the very, very end. Even though the authorities are against me, I'm not going to stop.
Host (possibly Steve Bannon or a co-host)
God bless you. Come back on the War Room soon.

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 health care system is broken. Your pharmacy doesn't have to be the dollar's convertibility into gold ended in 1971. Gold was fixed at $35 an ounce. Well, fast forward to today and the US dollar has lost over 85% of its purchasing power. Gold, on the other hand, is increased in value by over 12,000%. That's why Central banks are buying gold at record levels. That's why major firms like Vanguard and BlackRock hold significant positions in gold. And that's why I encourage you to consider diversifying your savings with physical gold from Birch Gold Group. But it starts with education.

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 food prices, Reduced availability, maybe even panic buying. That's why having an emergency food supply at home makes so much sense. And that's where our friends at my Patriot Supply come in.

Welcome back folks. There is a devotion in the UK known mainly to Catholics, I think, rather than evangelicals, a devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. And that was due to a number of revelations to a nun, St. Margaret Mary Alacoque, 350 years ago. This is the 350th anniversary, which sort of coincides, give or take 100 years with the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence and The American link here is that the US Bishops, the US Catholic Bishops, are going to dedicate America to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. To talk about this and the other aligning developments on this, I have two incredible guests now, Stephen Gunnell and his wife, Sabrina Gunnell, who are the directors of a film called Sacred Heart. Folks, before I hand the word over to you, let's just take a quick look at the trailer.
Sabrina Gunnell
Jesus, make my heart like yours.
Host (possibly Steve Bannon or a co-host)
God keeps telling me I love you
Ryan Bridge
infinitely more than you imagine.
Host (possibly Steve Bannon or a co-host)
The only question is, will you open yourself to that love?
Ryan Bridge
I promise to dedicate my heart to your Sacred Heart.
I'm in.
Host (possibly Steve Bannon or a co-host)
Welcome back. I know the film has had great success in continental Europe and we're going to be moving now towards the. The showings in the United States for our largely evangelical American evangelical audience. Why don't you just start off saying a few words what the devotion to the Sacred Heart is. I think it is the archetypical Catholic devotion, but there's something in there, I think, that, that will reach out and appeal to evangelicals as well. Tell us a bit about the. The devotion generally.
Stephen Gunnell
Well, I would say it's. It's the heart of the faith because this devotion is about love and it's about love of Jesus. And this love is for everyone. Catechism, all the people, Christian people, and also the others. It's for everyone. That's why the success in France was so huge, because the Fuma sold over 500,000 tickets in France. It's very big for France. Furthermore, for a documentary, it's the mystery.
Sabrina Gunnell
A mystery has finished. Never finished. To understand. Heart of Jesus is the heart of the heart of our faith is the beginning of the Church. It's the beginning of the reborn, the revival, the. The beginning of our new story. For everyone who practice, who believe, who test, who approach the heart of Jesus, his love, it's. It's a mystery. We were. I am Catholic now for something like 25 years. I've got 51. I just discovered 25 years of Catholicism. I just discovered right now the Heart, the Sacred Heart of Jesus. He was just thrown on me every day and I never saw it. And we made. Retire. Retire in Sanctuary Marielle in South of France. And we met Father Maro and Alicia Beauvisage Beauregard. They are both of them in the movie as testimony. And we. They spoke about devotion of Sacred Hearts. And we. We discover the story and we have. We made a conversion. After the conversion.
Host (possibly Steve Bannon or a co-host)
Okay, I'm just going to see if we can get an image up on the screen now of the devotion of the Sacred Heart. If you've seen it, folks, it's basically the image of a heart with a crown of thorns around it with a cross on top and fire. What's the symbolism behind those various aspects of the Sacred Heart? And by the way, I think, Stephen, the word in English you wanted was retreat. The word. When you go on a spiritual course of formation in English, it retreats. Tell us a bit about the symbolism behind the image, first of all.
Stephen Gunnell
Yes, for sure you have the symbolism of the cross and what happened to the Christ with the crown, with the cross and the spear. Yes, but it's the image that Saint Marguerite Marie Alacoque. So the Christ opened his body, his heart. His body. And she saw that. So it's a symbolism, but it's completely crazy because it's very concrete. It's very concrete. And she saw that and she feel that because he asked to her, would you give me your heart? And she said yes. And it's kind of operation, yes. He put his hand in his body and after that she felt his heart burning every day until he ends his life. Until the end.
Sabrina Gunnell
Yes. It's the heart of Jesus, the Sacred Heart of Jesus. It's a symbol of love, a burning love for everyone. He dying for us. He gave his life for me, for everyone, for our sins, for save us. And this love is not just a love about a mom for his children or a wife or a husband for his wife. It's more than this. It's a divine love who's burning. And we saw that on the cross where Jesus gave his life for save the world.
Stephen Gunnell
It's the start. The start of love starts with Jesus. And after you have the love between wife and husband.
Sabrina Gunnell
And today again. And today again his heart beat again, burn again and call us again, everyone.
Host (possibly Steve Bannon or a co-host)
Tell me just before we give a quick shout out to one of the show's sponsors, just tell me a bit about the difference this devotion makes in the lives, the daily lives of the faithful.
Sabrina Gunnell
Yes. Why devotion? I guess I think it's so simple. It's just a give love for love. Jesus give me his love. I give.
Stephen Gunnell
I want to give it back.
Sabrina Gunnell
I just want to give it back. It's just simple that the devotion, because why sometime I couldn't have the
Stephen Gunnell
sacraments.
Sabrina Gunnell
The sacraments. Maybe sometime I can't. I can't go to the church, I can't go to the mass, I can't go to the confession. But I have this devotion. And this devotion is my heart. Is my love for him every single day, whatever happened. And it's my assurance that embrace myself, embrace my faith, embrace my love for him.
Stephen Gunnell
It could be the start of something. Because even if you're not baptism, you can make this devotion to Jesus because it's every day you say yes to him. Yes, I want to do my path with you. I want to do my life with you. So every day, each day you say
Sabrina Gunnell
yes to Jesus, it's something like a marriage. It's something like a marriage. I give my life to Sabrina until death. And I have the life of Sabrina and its devotion to the house Sacred Heart is the same. I give you my love, then I can receive your love.
Stephen Gunnell
Yes. And the love of Jesus, give us this strength that we need because we are just human and sometimes we want to give up something. But with Jesus, it's the Every day,
Sabrina Gunnell
every day I can stop to love. I can stop to do some things good. I am limited in my passions. I am limited in my confidence, in my trust, in my confidence, in my faith, in my love for my wife, for my children, for myself, for my job. I am limited. And I have a source that where I can get a reborn in love. And it's just hearts,
Host (possibly Steve Bannon or a co-host)
the heart of our Lord. Stay with us. Back in two minutes with Stephen and Sabrina Gunnell, the directors of the film Sacred Heart. We'll be talking more about that film in just a couple of moments. I gave at the beginning of the show the details for Birch Gold. Folks, you might have noticed this week that for the first time, the national debt of the United States has now raised up to the level of the GDP itself. Huge benchmark figure there. And the only way the federal government is going to be able to get out of that, including, I think, either number one or two. Now, the federal budget is interest repayment is by printing more dollars. So if you're looking for a storage of wealth for 3,000 years, if not more of recorded history, that safeguard of wealth is and always has been gold. So if you want to learn more about how to protect your savings, find a hedge in times of turbulence, as Steve says. Text Bannon B A N O N to 989-898. That's Bannon B A N O N 989-898. Back now in the final moments of this show with Stephen and Sabrina Gunnell. There are many Catholics who do have a devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, but they don't make films about it. Tell me a bit about how you took what is a private devotion into what is effectively now a public apostolate. Tell me about why you made this film at this moment in time. You did mention, and my ears pricked up on it at the beginning you mentioned the word revival. Could you tie those things together? What's going on in France at the moment? Tell me about the revival as you're seeing it and why you made this film now.
Stephen Gunnell
Yes, well, France hasn't been doing well for several years, since the French Revolution, I think. But the world, the entire world is not doing well. And for us it was important to show. Show how relevant the message all these messages of Christ that he gave to Margaret Mary are for today. This message of love is for the world, for this world. And this world is dying from not knowing it is loved. We wanted to give a message of hope to the world. And if people's heart are we kindled by God's love, the world will be better for sure. But this seems simply a message for love, for everyone. So.
Sabrina Gunnell
And the feedback is just amazing, as Sabrina said. We thought we did. Maybe we did. 20,000 tickets, 30,000 tickets. Almost a half million tickets only in France now and the film going to over 41 countries around the world. It's just amazing. For a small, tiny documentary made with us with only some things like €800,000 in three weeks of Rick tonage. Rolling, rolling, free weeks of rolling. It's just crazy. And the feedback is just amazing. You cannot believe, you cannot read. You cannot see what we see, what we read, what we have. The. The message. Thousands of message. People in peace, reconciliation. In a situation impossible. Jesus came. Everything is gone. Good. Conversion, baptism. Go back to the church, go back to the confession. It's just amazing. The sanctuary of Paralymonial called us back some things like four months ago for said. What do you've done with this movie? What do you done? What did you done with this movie? Thousands of thousand people came back now to the sanctuary of the. The apparition of. Of the Sacrisale. It's just crazy and amazing. And we. We had this year's. Sorry. We have this year some things like 21000 adults go back to be Catholic in. In. In a pack. Easter. In Easter. It's just crazy. This. This movie is just a miracle. A miracle goes gone.
Stephen Gunnell
Modern contemporary testimony. And it was important for us. It was very important to show how the Sacred Heart, which is the heart of the faith, always and constantly comes to meet us if we were willing to open ourselves to love.
Host (possibly Steve Bannon or a co-host)
You've spoken quite movingly and authentically. About the transformative power of the grace of Christ acting through this devotion to our blessed Lord's Sacred Heart. Just tell me in the few moments that you've got left a bit about what's going to happen in America with the consecration of the United States this year, this 250th anniversary year. Tell us a bit about the consecration of the bishops and tell me a bit because coming back to the revival taking place in continental Europe. Tell me about the some more reaction in the church hierarchy to you promoting the St. Mary Margaret's 350 year old devotion right now. Tell me about those two things, please. We only have two minutes left. By the way.
Sabrina Gunnell
Can you believe this? We just hear about the process for the bishop in us to give the all the country to give consecration devotion to the Sacred Hearts. We heard about this when we produced the film. It was just crazy. It's war. It's the war and everywhere. And we saw the sign. It's the time of the Sacred Heart. It's the time of Jesus wants everyone now came back to him. And look at us. We're just. You have the team of the production and the director of this film and look at the movie around the world. Go get some miracle crazy in around the world. All family people, young, old, whatever they came from. It's just crazy and amazing.
Stephen Gunnell
It's really a sign of God. Yes, it's very. We are so impressed and we hope, we hope the American people will be there at the 9, 11 and 14 at the theater and also the 10 for the Spanish people. So it's very important to show it because. And to bring your family, to bring your neighbors, to bring your friends. Many people in France were very touched about this film. And well, it's not our film. It's the film of God. We are just, well, just the tools.
Sabrina Gunnell
We are just the tool of Jesus. It's the reason why. It's what we had some difficulties when the film goes out because a part of the population don't want to talk about it. A part of the media don't want to talk about it because it's Christian. It's some things like militantes. I don't, I don't know the words, but I'm sorry, I'm looking for the word.
Host (possibly Steve Bannon or a co-host)
It's not a problem. Stephen. Sabrina, just because we only have like 90 seconds left. Very quickly you mentioned those dates when people go and see your film, both in English and in Spanish. Give me those dates once again. Tell me where people can go to learn more about the film. Perhaps on behalf of their church, they can order church booking and come and see the film.
Stephen Gunnell
You can go to Sacred heartfilm us and you can get the tickets just now. And the film will be in the theaters in June 9th, 11th and 14th and 10 if there will be success, maybe more. But you must go there at this time to show to the theaters that this film is important for them, important for us.
Sabrina Gunnell
Only one shot and four dates.
Stephen Gunnell
Yes, please be there.
Host (possibly Steve Bannon or a co-host)
It's not simply important, folks, it's providential right now as the revival of the Holy Spirit is working through the Judeo Christian West. My thanks to Stephen and Sabina Rina Gunnell for Spencer, a real America's voice in Denver, and also, of course, as always, to Victoria Santi Franco for putting the show together. Steve will be back at 10am tomorrow.

This episode juxtaposes growing grassroots patriotism in the UK, represented by Ryan Bridge and the Raise the Colours movement, with a global Catholic spiritual revival documented by Stephen and Sabrina Gunnell’s film “Sacred Heart.” The show features in-depth commentary on British national identity, populist resistance to establishment narratives, and a discussion on the Catholic devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, highlighting both political and spiritual movements responding to perceived crises in the West.
Ryan Bridge delivers an urgent spoken-word introduction depicting societal decline in the UK:
“This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies because we’re going medieval on these people. The people have had a belly full of it.”
— Steve Bannon, [01:57]
St. George’s Day Parade:
Bridge recounts going to the French coast and witnessing clandestine migrant crossings:
He blames NGOs and “white middle class liberal left” for enabling open borders.
Banned from Oxford and France due to activism:
Stephen Gunnell:
Sabrina Gunnell:
Testifies to personal conversion and power of devotion, discovered only after years as a Catholic:
“We made a retreat...and after, we made a conversion.”
— Sabrina Gunnell, [34:43]
Symbolism: The Sacred Heart depicted with thorns, cross, fire, signifying suffering, love, and resurrection.
Populist Resilience:
Media Critique & Defiance:
On Government Priorities:
Spiritual Call for Revival:
This episode highlights two intertwined themes:
Listeners are left with clear calls to action—support patriotic, grassroots movements like Raise the Colours and participate in the spiritual renewal heralded by the “Sacred Heart” film and the upcoming US Catholic consecration event.
