Stephen K. Bannon
This is what you're fighting for. I mean, every day you're out there, what they're doing is blowing people off. If you continue to look the other way and shut up, then the oppressors, the authoritarians, get total control and total power. Because this is just like in Arizona. This is just like in Georgia. It's another element that backs them into a quarter and shows their lies and misrepresentations is why this audience is going to have to get engaged. As we've told you, this is the fight. All this nonsense, all this spin. They can't handle the truth. War Room battleground. Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. Okay, Tuesday the 19th of November, year of our Lord 2024. Welcome to the 6:00 hour. We're packed. We're going to talk a little bit about Gates in a minute in this Ethics Committee tomorrow. Philip Patrick joins us. We got to talk about Treasury. Cause still the knives are out there. A bunch of breaking reports of Kevin Warsh, Scott Besant. Lutnick just got chosen for Commerce. Looks like the tariffs, a part of the tariff situation. May reported to Commerce. Now I said before we left it was. It's for publicsquare.com it's public square.com not patriotscare, public square, the Patriot economy. Companies that have your values. Go check that out. And of course, mypatriotsupply.com is Joe Reek and the team for those looking for the great products on preparation, Mike Lindell. Mike, the Warren posse has been bugging me all days. All day. What kind of deals are you going to give people? They love the deal so far, the free shipping, all of it. What do you got for us, brother? Okay, we have no Mike Lindell. We have, we have Philippa. I can do a monologue. I can do a rant. Okay, we're gonna get, we're gonna get these folks up in a minute. Well, let's continue on. Take it. Take a deep breath. Let's get Philip Patrick, get a guest up. Here's where we stand right now. What we stand is that they're making tons of announcements coming out of coming out of Mar a Lago today. You had the two co chairs. You had the two co chairs. Linda McMahon from the WWE. Linda McMahon. Remember Linda put a couple hundred million dollars in Senate races in Connecticut, didn't win with Small Business Administration in the first term. She is a fierce warrior. She had the Department of Education. It is fantastic. She's over there. I know they're going to staff out with an Absolute great team. Howard Lutnick from Cantor Fitzgerald is taking over the Commerce Department. He's also going to have a big role in tariffs and trade. We don't know where, we don't know where Lighthizer, Bob Lighthizer negotiated all the deals with Peter Navarro. Dr. Navarro, my understanding is Dr. Navarro is looking is working on a job in the White House to assist President Trump. That's all to see if that plays out or not. But Dr. Navarro somehow will land somewhere on manufacturing and trade. We'll report all that tomorrow. Is Matt Gaetz the initial one so they get two more. Dr. Oz got an administrator dealing with Medicare and Medicaid. Their heads are blown up about that. The big one that's outstanding right now is that FBI director, FBI director is Cash Patel versus Mike Rogers. Also, I think Jason Chaffetz is still in the hunt. And the attorney general of Missouri, Andrew Bailey. We'll see how that plays out. We're obviously big Cash fans. Government Gangsters. If you want to learn about Cash Patel and Katie Britt's staff should show her this. They should rent it tonight and watch it. Government Gangsters. You go to war room films.com you can get a DVD, you can stream it, you can do anything you want. It's on Salem. Now if Grace and Mo would be so kind to put it up in the live chat and people share it. Let's get it out there so more people know Cash Patel. It's off his bestselling book Government Gangsters and it's a good prep. It's a good preparation for just understanding what we're up against and quite frankly, where the investigations are going to be centered. As he takes on the FBI, he takes on doj, et cetera. Do I have is it Lindell? We have upper fellow Patrick. Mike Lindell, thank you for joining us, sir. Can you talk to us about pillows?
- [04:43]
Mike Lindell
Yeah, Steve, I want to comment a little bit. I was just watching your show the last hour and you're talking about all the races they're trying to take in California. I want people to know that we are involved in every one of them trying to stop what they're doing. And I just wanted to tell you that people call me all the time, seem to say, Mike, are you guys still going up?
- [05:01]
Stephen K. Bannon
But hang on, hang on, but hang on, hang on. Tell me how you're stopping it. Because they're every day they're finding new ballots, whether it's in Pennsylvania, California, they're out. These guys are relentless. They're trying to flip a Couple more House seats, make it even closer. And they're trying to take down our great presence on tv. While we're in break, they're mocking the president, saying Trump's under 50%, he doesn't have a mandate. So tell me what you're doing specifically to stop it.
- [05:26]
Mike Lindell
Well, very specifically, we're gathering all the information. People on the ground in all the places, whether this lead to taking this information, whether it leads to lawsuits or to what we had before. Remember, none of the judges in the last four years would look at stuff based on merit. They'd kick you out for standing. I can't even look at that. Or they would sanction you. This different this time around, we have not stopped looking at every single race that's out there that there's in the process of stealing or that they tried to steal, but they didn't have enough to steal. So it's basically, Steve, it's very much gathering that information, the plan we had from the beginning, and taking that now, and we know what to do with it after the fact here. And they say, well, you gotta wait till they do it in the middle, in the middle of it. Can we get injunctions to stop them? I don't know, but we have lawyers all over the place that are looking into that. I just want people to know we've got the cause of America, the Election Bureau, all of us. They're all out there right now watching, doing, gathering information. Now, what we do with them, we know what we can do. At the county level, Steve, at the county level, the sheriffs can get involved. I mean, there's so many things we've laid out@lindellplan.com if you go there, we've laid it all out. And we have a LexisNexis, we have all these sites you can go to and check this out and see what's going on in your own state, in your own precinct and in your own county.
- [06:53]
Stephen K. Bannon
Fantastic. People got to be on it because what they're doing now is trying to drive the vote below 50%. They're going to say, hey, Trump didn't have a mandate, but that's what. And they're going to try to take this House seat out in California, and there's all kind of nefarious activity in Pennsylvania. Cletus, join us at the bottom of the hour to discuss that. Mike, talk to me about pillows.
- [07:16]
Mike Lindell
Yeah. And the war room posse. I can't thank you enough, Doreen, to even have time to be involved with all the election stuff right now. Because you made it possible that I don't have to sit back and worry about my pillow and my employees we've hired. This is Another news. Another 30 employees this week. So you guys have made us one of the busiest companies again. We want to thank you all. And how are we going to thank you? Well, remember what made us famous? The MyPillow. We sold over 84 million now for 1488. But we're going to add on to that free shipping on your entire order. And this is what. There it is. We're bringing back the classic collection sale. You got the standards, 1488, queens 18, 8 king size, 1988. The multi use 988. And the body pillows, 2988 promo code, war room gets you free shipping on your entire order. Get every house in your, every bedroom in your house, every bed covered. Buy your neighbors pillows. You should be buying everyone pillows for Christmas so they get the best sleep. So everyone's in, you know, feeling pretty good about the election. But you know what you need great rest for where we're at and where we're going and what we've got to do when this fight isn't over. So there it is. The biggest, biggest sale in the history of MyPillow. Adding on that free ship on your entire order. Go to the website. You guys have all took advantage of the big ticket item. There's the flannel sheets, Steve's favorite right there, remember? And by the way, I just found out the last shipment of them came in this morning, so they are going fast. Get those on sale with the war room. With the war room promo code, the mattress toppers. Get yourself the best gift ever. Get those mattress toppers on sale with free shipping right now. Or any bed. Get yourself a bed so you can celebrate early for Christmas and get the best sleep of your life. But all the USA made socks and the bathrobes came in. So you guys, promo code, war room. Steve, I'm so excited because we're breaking sales records right now. And it's all because of, I believe the war room policy was one of the number one reasons behind that. And you guys were there when I needed you the most, when my employees needed you the most. And I want to thank you so much because I couldn't have done anything else with the elections if I didn't have the war room support in my pillow every day.
- [09:34]
Stephen K. Bannon
Love you, Mike Lindell. Keep fighting. Tell the folks right there we love them. We'll see you tomorrow morning. We'll see you tomorrow Morning on the show Michael and CEO of My Pillow. Philip Patrick, you've been ringside with us. I got to ask you. There is a knife fight going on for Secretary, treasury nec, all the big financial jobs. Howard Lutnick just announced he's the co chair of the transition just announced as Commerce Secretary and it looks like the Office of Trade Rep. I believe the way I read it is put underneath it if Lighthizer takes a role probably at the White house. I know Dr. Navarro is talking about someone at the White House NEC. So walk through. The candidates still outside are I think Mark Rowan who is head of Apollo. You've got Hagerty, secretary of the, excuse me, Senator from Tennessee. You have Kevin Warsh. Kevin was a senior executive at a couple of banks and was the short. He was the COVID bid, the COVID bid for the Federal Reserve job that Powell took. And obviously that was a catastrophic mistake. And of course you got Scott Besant and then Peter Navarro maybe at neck. How do you, how do you from a precious metals perspective and someone that is an expert in how to hedge problems, how do you see that? How do you see that financial team?
- [11:00]
Philip Patrick
Look, it's a strong team and much, much stronger than what we've got at the moment. So it's encouraging to say the least. Last I checked, at least on the betting markets and you'll know more than me, Steve, of course, but it seemed to be a dogfight between Kevin Walsh and Scott Bess and both decent candidates. If I had to pick a dog in the fight for me, the guy would probably be Bessen. I think he brings with him a fresh perspective. This is a non traditional candidate. It's a private sector guy, not a political or bureaucratic guy. I think that there's a chance he could inject some innovative approaches into the Treasury Department. Of course he has deep financial expertise. This guy managed the Soros investment fund. Billions in assets under management. And I think perhaps most importantly of all, his strategy tends to align most closely with Trump's.
- [11:58]
Stephen K. Bannon
Right.
- [11:59]
Philip Patrick
He is a pro growth market friendly policy guy and I think it resonates with Trump's emphasis on economic expansion. So a strong team across the board. But if I had to pick for me it would be Bess and luckily I don't have to pick that.
- [12:17]
Stephen K. Bannon
So Scott Besson has said this and President Trump has said this and Larry Kudlow has said this that this is the last opportunity have really as an economy or country because of the how debt has metastasized to have what we call a supply side tax Cut something that looks to the production side to try to drive that and incentivize entrepreneurs and companies to ramp up production. Given that, that we know that the overall framework or the framing of this is that these are people that look at the world, do supply side, what is your recommendation? What should the fiscal priorities for President Trump and his team be?
- [12:57]
Philip Patrick
Sir, look, I think there's a number of different things. As they say in first state training, first you got to stop the bleeding. Right? The federal government right now is hemorrhaging funds. Trump has to slap some bandages, cauterize some wounds. He's got to claw back as much of the unspent Covid funds, chips and infrastructure funds and reallocate that unspent money into more meaningful programs that will boost the economy. We have to close the border, right? It's not directly a fiscal policy, but putting an end to mass illegal immigration will save the nation trillions of dollars in welfare spending. You know, at the end of the day, illegal immigration is a massive drain on public resources. And we need to open up public lands to energy exploration.
- [13:44]
Stephen K. Bannon
Drill, drill, drill.
- [13:45]
Philip Patrick
As the administration is saying, the US Ranks first in the world in recoverable oil reserves. We are in the top unexplored natural gas reserves. Exploiting these resources will lower costs here at home and increase our national wealth longer term. So in sum, end wasteful spending, shut down drains on our resources and start growing the economy in a meaningful way. If anybody can do it, this team will do it. But it is an uphill battle. Slashing spending alone is not going to do it. They could fire every federal employee. It's not going to plug that $2 trillion deficit. So we need growth to get out of this mess.
- [14:27]
Stephen K. Bannon
President Trump, his team in the first, I don't know, month, four weeks, five weeks after takes the oath, you're going to hit the debt ceiling. You still got to. If we do the cr, which I think is the way to do it, kick it into the new year, let President Trump's team. The 2025 budget has not been done yet. You got to wrestle with what the deficit is going to be there. You've got the doge. I'm saying they ought to merge into one process. Plus, you got the tax cuts, particularly the tax cuts for the middle class and working class, all revert by, I think April, by April 15, they're gone. So a monumental structural issues to deal with. Besides the southern border and the deportations and the geopolitical situation, this metastasizing war in Ukraine, the fiscal and financial have to be dealt with first. That's why he has to have a team. And I think the team has to have their own points of view. But also know, listen to President Trump and because he's the one that's got to leave politically, it's a minefield. And Biden's left team and people say with such a great economy, it's all pumped up by fiat currency. It's all pumped up by. If you look at Philip, you and I talk about this all the time. Almost all these jobs are either government jobs or government adjacent jobs have been created. The real underlying productivity of America is not there. It's just not. And that's why people talk to business people. The commercial real estate markets tanked, right? If people sitting on a trillion, I think $1.2 trillion of non performing rents and loans in bad loans in commercial real estate, why? Because the economy is not productive. People know this. Folks know that you can't fool them. This is one of the reasons they voted for Trump. Every night on TV it's oh, the economy is great, the economy is great. What's great for the uber wealthy, but not otherwise. So I want to make sure people have the opportunity in this time of stress is going to get a lot worse and President Trump and his team is going to chop us the wood through here. But it's going to be tough of how they know how to hedge and where they go and what you guys can do and talking them through, whether it's an IRA 401K or whatever on precious metals and gold, where do they go, how do they contact you and how they build a working relationship.
- [16:38]
Philip Patrick
It's really simple. It all starts with information. So we know we take spanning to 989-898 or go to birchgold.com Bannon again birchgold.com Bannon that will get them access to information, free information on how and why to invest in precious metals. We talk a lot about debt, we're talking about deficits, we're talking about de dollarization around the world. These things are not going away over overnight. And precious metals is how one protects in times like this. So all they have to do is reach out. That'll get them access to the information and from there if they want to learn more, they have access to a lot of people like myself, as you know Steve, who are there to guide them through, answer questions and hold hands and make the process easy.
- [17:28]
Stephen K. Bannon
Thank you brother. Birchgold.com Bannon go check it out now or ban it at 989-898, whatever's easiest for you. Philip Patrick, thank you for coming on and helping just guide through the wilderness of finance and economics. Philip Patrick I hope we don't lose him to the administration. I'm sure he's in the short list for a bunch of potential officers. Philip Patrick over Birchgold. Let's play. Russ Vogt, one of our regular contributors here over at cra. Let's go. He's made the news this afternoon. Let's watch it. I'm going to bring in our own sunny blonde, Natalie Winters. Let's go and play that Trump is.

Cleta Mitchell
Now welcoming one of the chief architects of Project 2025. 900 page radical, deeply polarizing and unpopular agenda to potentially play a starring high profile role in his new administration. ABC News is reporting this quote. Russ Vought, who authored a chapter on executive office of the President for Project 2025 mandate for leadership, the conservative promise is under consideration for a cabinet level position in the next administration and has been vetted by Trump's transition team. Sources say they add this, but not only authored a chapter, but he was also deeply involved in Drafting Project 2025's playbook for the first 180 days of a new Trump administration. He is now one of several Project 2025 alums being considered for crucial high profile roles in the Trump cabinet. Joining our conversation is former congressman from Florida, MSNBC political analyst David Jolly. Angelo Caruson is still with us. David Jolly, your thoughts?
- [19:14]
David Jolly
Look, in normal political times, even if you take the Republican revolution of the 90s and their contract With America, a lot of this would be policy debate about the role of government and the role of federal agencies and what we spend money on. But in a Trump era of politics, it is now laced with this idea of a powerful unitary executive, where the authors of Project 2025, Donald Trump might say he didn't know anything about it, but he's hiring all the people who wrote it. And so their view of government, the people he is surrounding himself, you know, the old axiom in politics, personnel is policy. Donald Trump is surrounding himself with people who have very aggressive constitutional ideas as well as very aggressive views of the role of government. And simply on the latter, they would be happy to kind of pull the rug out from most government services if they could, if they can get that through Congress. But even what they can't get through Congress is where a lot of the people who created Project 2025 that are clearly now in Donald Trump's inner circle, the idea of a powerful unitary executive or the idea that the President himself, himself is now vested with all of these powers is something that used to be anathema to Republicans. If you go back to the 90s, to the contract With America, it was about resisting additional powers to the presidency, keeping them within Congress. That, that was truer to the vision of how we founded the nation when we broke from a monarch. But under Project 2025 and Donald Trump's penchant for wrestling control to his own Resolute desk at, if you will, and not letting any control sit out even among the administrative agencies that traditionally have had power, that's where this begins to test some real constitutional limits. And the one thing about Project 2025, these are not dumb people. They are ready to test the constitutional limits and they believe that they have a court system now that will probably grant them their blessing.

Stephen K. Bannon
Did I mention this, why these judges are so important, this fight that's taking place in the Capitol this evening? All hands on deck. And when I say all hands, it means all hands on deck. These are going to be late nights. The Democrats are prepared to go all night. And David Jolly, who's a pretty smart guy himself, he's an apostate former Republican who's not maga, who's obviously an elitist globalist, but right there he walked through the theory of the case of this whole concept of the unitary executive. I would, that is one central issue. What I would say is this is focused on the deconstruction of the administrative state, something that has metastasized for so many decades. Let me go to Natalie. Get me up to speed. She's in the House. Cleta is going to join us and she's going to spend the rest of the show with us, but particularly talk about this. But most importantly, they're stealing elections even as we speak in Pennsylvania. I just heard that the congressman out in California may lose a seat by under 100 votes. This is outrageous. Tomorrow, Natalie Winters, the Ethics Committee is going to meet and they're going to vote and they're going to try to shove this report out. What's the latest that you hear on the Matt Gaetz confirmation, ma'am?
- [22:19]
Natalie Winters
Sure. Well, may I, may I just say, whenever you hear Republicans say, what is it, bipartisan, comprehensive immigration reform, or if you hear Democrats talk about anything being unconstitutional, full stop, these people never care about the Constitution in the first place. So if that's their first line of defense coming out against the Project 2025 agenda, it shows you how weak their argum and how this is and always has been, not just lawfare, but political warfare. In the case of Matt Gaetz. Tomorrow you have the ethics panel, the Ethics Committee convening, not necessarily to have a vote. They could potentially vote on releasing the report. Of course, 100 plus Democratic lawmakers have signed letters encouraging the release of the report. They got the whole peanut gallery of a bunch of sexual assault and rape activist type type groups signing letters trying to push for the report. All it would take is just one Republican member of the panel to vote to allow the report to be released, which would sort of be unprecedented. The top Democrat who chairs the committee has come out saying that she does indeed think that this report needs to be released. But even if there's some issue tomorrow, they actually decide to not vote on it, there is a way that they should. They could potentially do a workaround and any member of Congress could go to the floor to tee up a vote on a privileged resolution that could force the Ethics Committee to sort of circumnavigate a way to release the report.

Stephen K. Bannon
What is your sense on Hegseth in our position here at War Room is march or die. When President Trump puts forward a nominee, that nominee is going to be confirmed by the United States Senate. And we cannot sit there and just start to waver in any of these. What are you hearing, Natalie, on either Hegseth Gates, any of the others, Tulsi Noem and even Bobby Kennedy have kind of, you know, taken a backseat here from the Gabbard Gates, Hegseth trio. Any update?
- [24:21]
Natalie Winters
Well, Steve, humble suggestion. I said this when I was hosting Battleground, but I think that we should rename this show to War Room Retribution instead of War Room Battleground because that is what we are going to be getting because these nominees will be confirmed. Like we were talking about earlier today on the morning show, what you're seeing going on now is just a continuation of the Lawfare legacy that the left has waged against not just President Donald Trump, but the populist movement much more broadly for years. And Matt Gaetz, not just one of President Trump's staunchest allies in Congress, but this is someone who has taken on confronted face to face, you know, stood down the nine barrel shotguns as President Trump was saying about Liz Cheney, and won when it came to the first impeachment of President Trump. And that's why they're so scared of him. And might I just add, Steve, I think it's quite rich. And I'm going to play my woman card here because I'm allowed to. I'm sorry, let's investigate every other member of Congress on their, shall we say, untoward dealings in the realm of what? Sex trafficking, human trafficking. I'd start with the Democratic Party and you know who else I'd look at? Not just Hunter Biden, but the entire Biden DOJ who went out of their way just last year to what, wipe information from their, quote, citizen's guide to child sex trafficking laws. That was from the DOJ website. And also remove from their areas of top concern, quote, international sex trafficking of minors, domestic sex trafficking of minors and child victims of prostitution. So this newfound sense that I don't know Democrats and that established Republicans care so much about evil sex traffickers. Matt Gaetz is not a sex trafficker. But I would encourage that those people use that same newfound sense of urgency to investigate Matt Gaetz with such hatred and vitriol to go after actual deranged perverts who I'm sure this audience knows full well, flood the of that hallowed institution that is the United States Congress every single day.

And the Democrats, all of a sudden, you're still generating and you get ballots coming in. Give us an update on where we stand and particularly in this fight to keep President Trump over 50%. Because they're going to say, wait, no mandate under 50%. Where are we?
- [32:50]
Cleta Mitchell
Well, let's start with Pennsylvania. They're only doing the recount for the Senate race in Pennsylvania. And the Supreme Court surprisingly, yesterday, last night told the counties that they had made their decision some weeks ago that absentee ballots had to be received by the date of the election and they had to be dated and any undated absentee ballots cannot be counted. And they also said that any election official in any county in Pennsylvania would be subject to contempt of court should they decide to count those ballots anyway. So that Democrat commissioner in Bucks county who said, well, I know what the court said the law is, but people break the law all the time. So I'm going to vote that we're going to count these ballots anyway. And The Supreme Court, I don't think they took kindly to that. So those ballots have been ordered to be removed from the count. But today, remember what Mark Elias has done this before, by the way, Steve, this is what he did in Minnesota in 2008 when Norm Coleman had won reelection to the Senate.
- [34:02]
Stephen K. Bannon
He beat Coleman by 300 votes. Right.
- [34:04]
Cleta Mitchell
Well, Coleman had won on election Day. Mark Elias goes in. This is Al Franken got into the Senate and what he did was he just kept, kept finding ballots, finding votes, and got a judge to let him count all the provisionals, all the absentees, until they got enough to take Norm Coleman out of the Senate.
- [34:24]
Stephen K. Bannon
So are we sure that McCormick is going to win here? I mean, what's the status?
- [34:28]
Cleta Mitchell
Well, the McCormick lawyers seem to think that the margin is 15,000. Now. They seem to think that they're not. They don't seem to think that Casey can overcome that.
- [34:39]
Stephen K. Bannon
However, Today it's the 15,000 in Pennsylvania. Nothing they can create that they'd be generating imbalance overnight.
- [34:47]
Cleta Mitchell
Well, that's the thing.
- [34:47]
Stephen K. Bannon
They stole it from Trump in 2020. You saw it, people went to bed, he was 830, 3,000 up. And you get up at 6:00 in the morning and by all sudden Biden's making things open up where in the hell these things came from. And by Saturday afternoon they called it, right. Pennsylvania. No way.
- [35:05]
Cleta Mitchell
Exactly. And so today, what Mark Elias did today was now he pivoted to dealing with provisional ballots that were cast in person on election day, have not been counted. And they went back. Well, they've been counted. If they, A provisional ballot is issued, if your voter registration is wrong or you don't sign it, or there's something, some problem, you vote in the wrong county, you vote in the wrong precinct. They're allowed to vote on statewide elections only, but they're not. If they're not signed as they're supposed to be, then they're not allowed under law to be counted. So they went into some counties today, only in blue counties, not in red counties, but in blue counties, and argued that the election boards should agree to count the provisional ballots even if they weren't signed, but only in certain counties. So now I don't know if they're gonna, if they're gonna go back to court.
- [35:58]
Stephen K. Bannon
But who's up there looking after McCormick? Interest? The RNC's interest, the President's interest? Is somebody on top of this?
- [36:04]
Cleta Mitchell
Well, they have a lot of lawyers. The rnc has lawyers. McCormick has lawyers. I know that a lot of the Lawyers were dismissed after President Trump won on Election Day. And then there was an urgent call for people to come back. But once Casey said he wasn't going to concede and Mark Elias said he was going to Pennsylvania, so they called people back. But look, I mean, I'm just always very nervous because I know Mark Elias has absolutely no hesitation whatsoever to do whatever the hell he needs to do.
- [36:37]
Stephen K. Bannon
I want a guy like that on my side.
- [36:39]
Cleta Mitchell
Well, absolutely.
- [36:40]
Stephen K. Bannon
I hate to say. Hey, I hate to say it. I want one of them. I want one of them. California now. Is it Lee? Michelle Lee? Who's the.
- [36:49]
Cleta Mitchell
Michelle Steele, I think Michelle Steele, Right.
- [36:51]
Stephen K. Bannon
Voted married to the. From Palos Verdes, I think. Married to the former chairman of the state party. She's a warrior.
- [36:58]
Cleta Mitchell
Yes.
- [36:59]
Stephen K. Bannon
I think it's down to 98 votes, right? 98 ballots. They're going to steal that in front of our eyes, are they not?
- [37:06]
Cleta Mitchell
Well, look at California. And answers your own question. I mean, these places are a nightmare. There is no ballot security, there's no ballot integrity. They keep getting ballots in. You know, they have this ridiculous federal. We have this ridiculous federal statute on the. It's supposed to be the military vote, but it turns out the military component of it is now down to about 15%. It's mainly overseas people who may or may not be citizens of the United States and they are allowed to submit to turn in ballots. In North Carolina. In North Carolina, we have a Republican Supreme Court candidate who was leading at the end of election day by 6,000 votes. That is now down to 28 votes because the State Board of Elections was still receiving ballots as of last Thursday and they stopped publishing the required data to be able to know whether those are legitimate or whether they were just manufactured by the T votes.
- [38:04]
Stephen K. Bannon
Okay, but what are we doing to stop that? Had that happen, you folks down in North Carolina, you're pretty on top of things.
- [38:09]
Cleta Mitchell
The people in the Election integrity movement are on top of it. They're the ones who have the data. They're the ones who've been raising questions about this. I just have to say that just sometimes the people who've been doing this a long time, who are more establishment, shall we say, they're too timid. They're very timid. We worked really hard to try to get them to get the State Board of Elections to publish all the data. They didn't do it. And, you know, see, sometimes I just think I don't know what we do about the establishment to make them understand the war we're in. I Just don't quite understand.
- [38:45]
Stephen K. Bannon
Well, you don't. You have to replace. Okay. My theory of the case is you can't. They're grown men and women. They're grown ass men and women, as we say in the Commonwealth, Virginia. And if they don't understand we're in a war, then you got to be replaced. We did it in the precinct strategy. I think we now need to do it in the election Integrity. We need warriors where we close the deal. In certain states, you had the people around the counting table and there was as they try to do funny business because they can't steal it, they can't win. Mark Elias knows this.
- [39:13]
Cleta Mitchell
That's exactly right.
- [39:14]
Stephen K. Bannon
So if they can't steal, they can't win. They got that. They're smart people. We just need as many tough people as possible. I want you to. The reason I wanted to have you through here today was not just an update. You have been working on a project and you're very tight with the RNC and you're very tight with Bill McGinley. Going to be the White House counselor was a great pick. One of the reasons President Trump closed the deal. We closed in 16 and we closed in 24. Not just that. President Trump deliver the vote and the grassroots turn out with grassroots operations because we didn't have really that much money in either time. We had lawyers at that time. It was Don McGahn. His wingman was Bill McGinley. We were ready to go. We had stuff drafted even in this tight things in Michigan and Wisconsin, they didn't even come. They try to cross us because they knew we were ready. In 2024, Bill McGinley stepped up. He did it. He ran that whole group over the RNC. And at the campaign, it wasn't like 20. You had lawyers on top of things. And now he's White House counsel. And as President Trump said, this is still a priority for me. We closed 24, although they're out there right now trying to take his vote down below 50% and try to pick up another Senate seat and steal a couple of House seats in Supreme Court and other stuff around the country. It's a high priority. So given your relationship with everybody, you are talking about a bill and a law now when you talk to MAGA or conservatives, and particularly, we're trying to deconstruct the administrative state. We're trying to make this place smaller and focus on liberty. And now our girl Cleta walks in who we love and cherish, and she's saying, hey, I want to Talk about a federal law over elections. We sit there and go, oh my God, no, we can't do it. So make your case why it's federal law that screwed this thing up and why that has to be reverted. The floor is yours, ma'am.
- [40:57]
Cleta Mitchell
For over three decades, we have basically four federal statutes that have completely wrecked our elections. Let's start with the National Voter Registration Act. Remember, this is motor voter. And this is the. This is the law that requires voter registration at every department of motor vehicles. You get your driver's license, you get registered to vote. And at social services agencies where they hand out welfare benefits. That law needs to be overwhelmed. Overturned because that's the basis on which the Supreme Court ruled that states cannot require proof of citizenship. So that needs to be repealed. We need to require. We're not going to get rid of the registration at driver's license agencies. That's fine because of the real ID law. Now the driver's agencies actually have citizenship data. We need to require that before anybody is registered that the driver's license agency has to make sure that this person is a citizen. And we need to run the citizenship data in the voter rolls, I mean, against the voter rolls in every state. The driver's license agencies have the data. And then what we have to do is we have to repeal the parts of the National Voter Registration act that make it impossible to clean the voter rolls. The reason our voter rolls are such a mess is because every election office in America for 30 years has been told, you cannot take anybody off the rolls, even if they're non citizens. That's what the department.
- [42:29]
Stephen K. Bannon
This is a ticking time bomb. Because this is how in Nevada and other places, this is in Pennsylvania, when you have these corrupt voter rolls, they've got the names, so many names, they can just generate ballots and use those names of people that no longer exist, don't belong in the state. Dead beyond.
- [42:43]
Cleta Mitchell
Well, Nevada's the worst because everybody on the voter rolls gets a ballot. Everybody. You have hundreds of thousands of bad registrations and they all get ballots. And there's very little transparency. So those are, these are things that Congress has put in place.
- [43:00]
Stephen K. Bannon
Okay, those are two. What are. You said there were.
- [43:02]
Cleta Mitchell
All right, there's the Help America vote Act, which 22 years ago is what Congress passed after the Bush v. Gore election in 2000. And it required an appropriate money to get. Required every state to get rid of the old punch card systems and the old voting equipment with the levers. We could do that again today and require that we get rid of these touch screens, we get rid of these insecure problematic systems. There is precedent for it and Congress.
- [43:36]
Stephen K. Bannon
Is this where I take out the machines? Correct.
- [43:39]
Cleta Mitchell
If you want to have hand marked paper ballots and security.
- [43:44]
Stephen K. Bannon
Is that all three that have to come to cause the problem.
- [43:47]
Cleta Mitchell
The other one is what is called uocava, the Uniformed Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act. Everybody thinks that that's for military. Let me tell you something. We need to have a law for the military, deployed military, and we need to have a separate statute for overseas citizens. They need to provide a copy of their valid passport. They need to have to register if they've never been registered in state. They need to be registered at the State Department and cast a ballot for president counted in the District of Columbia. They're. They are.
- [44:18]
Stephen K. Bannon
Well, hang on. But if I'm a city in the Commonwealth of Virginia, I just happen to be living in North Africa for a year on work. That's different.
- [44:26]
Cleta Mitchell
That's different.
- [44:27]
Stephen K. Bannon
Okay, you're saying these are people that are actually living in that country permanently.
- [44:30]
Cleta Mitchell
And have never lived in the United States. They have never lived in the United States and have no plans to return.
- [44:37]
Stephen K. Bannon
What a shame. And they have to provide no foreigners that happen to.
- [44:40]
Cleta Mitchell
Do you know how much money the Democrats invested this year in getting overseas?
- [44:44]
Stephen K. Bannon
How much?
- [44:45]
Cleta Mitchell
Almost $2 million.
- [44:47]
Stephen K. Bannon
Okay, so I got the motor voter registration and the social worker registration is one. I got to clean the.
- [44:52]
Cleta Mitchell
Clean the voter license.
- [44:54]
Stephen K. Bannon
Yeah, I got the, I got the machines for the health. And then I've got this. These are rat. This is a rat's nest. And you're saying, yo, Steve, this was all done by federal law.
- [45:03]
Cleta Mitchell
Yeah, Congress broke it. Congress needs to fix it.
- [45:05]
Stephen K. Bannon
Okay, so give me the Cleta now. I'm. Now I got it. People tell me, Cletus, trying to get a new federal law. I go, that's not my Cleta. But you're saying over 30 or 40 years Congress has stepped in to do pieces and they've got bad things. They got a rat's nest. This has to be unwound. What is the Cleta Mitchell law that you then want to put forward and what does it take care of?
- [45:27]
Cleta Mitchell
It takes care of. I think that, you know, all of the things that allow ballots to come in after election day, that's all been done by the federal government. We need to stop that. We need to make sure that we get rid of this ballot curing. What is this? You can come in and fix your ballot or somebody fixes it for you. No, thank you. That's all of these things have arisen because these federal statutes, but because what needs to happen is that reconciliation is what the House and Senate are working on now. They're working on a first 100 days program for the president. I am praying. I have asked, I'm asking everyone I can ask, include election reform in this bill, in reconciliation. Reconciliation.
- [46:11]
Stephen K. Bannon
Hang on, Whoa. Talk about reconciliation. Normally, it's a lot of bad things happening, right? A lot of bad. It's a scary.
- [46:18]
Cleta Mitchell
It's not the same as the continuing resolution.
- [46:20]
Stephen K. Bannon
It's reconciliation, but it's reconciliation. But it's another thing that normally we hate. Not good things happen. Okay. We get jammed up on reconciliation. Correct. Now they're talking about doing tax cuts.
- [46:32]
Cleta Mitchell
And all the immigration reform, deconstruction of.
- [46:35]
Stephen K. Bannon
The administrative state, the reconciliation bill, because you don't have to break cloture. You don't, you don't have to have.
- [46:41]
Cleta Mitchell
60 votes in the Senate.
- [46:43]
Stephen K. Bannon
This is to get, this is a workaround of the filibusters. So, ladies and gentlemen, put in your calendar. There's going to be a rec. I think the first time we can do it is in early 2025. Correct. Write it down. There is going to be a weekend that they will be burning down this Capitol. The Democrats will be out in the biggest protest you've ever seen. Because right now there are people I know that are working on, I don't know, policies I think the War Room posse would love and nurture. And it's all going to jam into one bill. So hold it. Cleta's. Part of the reconciliation bill would include what?
- [47:21]
Cleta Mitchell
It would include the things that I've.
- [47:22]
Stephen K. Bannon
Talked about, turning all those around.
- [47:25]
Cleta Mitchell
All of those things, including getting rid.
- [47:26]
Stephen K. Bannon
Of the machines, cleaning the voter rolls, no immediate registration at a welfare office or things.
- [47:31]
Cleta Mitchell
Yes.
- [47:32]
Stephen K. Bannon
And shut down this whole crap about these people living overseas forever, never lived in the United States, or if they do vote, it comes through the District of Columbia.
- [47:40]
Cleta Mitchell
So we don't care.
- [47:42]
Stephen K. Bannon
So here I still vote in the District of Columbia. I'm going to move it to a state that it counts in. But I looked the other day. I'm not sure they've counted my votes in the last couple elections because there's so few Republicans said because in D.C. they stole the Republicans. They just throw them out. They know who you are. I think in my section was like, we had like three votes.
- [48:00]
Cleta Mitchell
Well, you know that President Trump got 6% in the district of Columbia this year.
- [48:03]
Stephen K. Bannon
This time it's a huge.
- [48:04]
Cleta Mitchell
And you know what? That's huge because Romney got 3%. He doubled Romney.
- [48:08]
Stephen K. Bannon
Well, that's what I thought. They count them all.
- [48:10]
Cleta Mitchell
And then let me tell you, there would be one other thing. We've got to do something about the census. We have to say that there is a citizenship question on the census.
- [48:21]
Stephen K. Bannon
Come on, lady. I was the. I was the citizen question guy. After we did the travel ban, I said, president Trump's going to sense. And we had it. We had it. And they blinked after we got out, Wilbur Ross and the Department of Commerce, and they came back and they gave President Trump totally wrong information. And we took that. The only way you're going to get this thing sorted is in a statute. In a statute. And you got it, and you got.
- [48:46]
Cleta Mitchell
To do it right away.
- [48:47]
Stephen K. Bannon
And you must have that question in the census.
- [48:49]
Cleta Mitchell
That's right.
- [48:50]
Stephen K. Bannon
What kind of change will that make in the next census? That we're going to do?
- [48:52]
Cleta Mitchell
Well, here's the next thing we have to do is we have to say that apportionment of House seats must be done on the basis of citizen population, not total population. If we required representation in the Congress to be based on citizens, California and these states that have these huge illegal populations would no longer get to count those for purposes of political power.
- [49:19]
Stephen K. Bannon
This is so war and posse. We only bring you in for the tough ones and the important ones. Alex DeGrasse. Because I'm sitting there going about how much they're trying to steal on these things. The great young Alex De Grasse, who I think I can announce is not going to go to the United nations with Stefanik. Stefanik's terrific, but she's. Alex is going to continue to work because he's a rock star. I asked him this very question. I said, I got Cleta coming on today. She's talking about a new bill. I think part of that bill is going to be my question about citizenship, because it's logical and it makes you have to do it.
- [49:50]
Cleta Mitchell
Have to do it.
- [49:51]
Stephen K. Bannon
I asked him, I said, alex, on these Democratic gerrymandered districts that count this stuff, how many seats are we talking about that would be realigned automatically to Republicans? He goes at least 12.
- [50:06]
Cleta Mitchell
Yes.
- [50:06]
Stephen K. Bannon
A dozen.
- [50:07]
Cleta Mitchell
Yes.
- [50:07]
Stephen K. Bannon
In the biggest states that have the problem, California and Illinois to start off with. He also said New Jersey. But 12. We're talking about something that delivered with nothing else changing.
- [50:17]
Cleta Mitchell
Right.
- [50:18]
Stephen K. Bannon
12 seats.
- [50:18]
Cleta Mitchell
Right.
- [50:19]
Stephen K. Bannon
This is so huge.
- [50:20]
Cleta Mitchell
It is huge.
- [50:21]
Stephen K. Bannon
Now, where do you stand? We gotta bounce up. You're gonna cigarette. We're gonna talk for a few minutes after the show. How far down the path you're here.
- [50:30]
Cleta Mitchell
This is what I'm doing here this week, okay? I'm talking to people. I'm just like, I'm just banging on doors.
- [50:36]
Stephen K. Bannon
The thing about Cletus, she comes out very genteel. This live in North Carolina is very genteel. Southerner. She, she's like a rash when she's on something, man. She doesn't. She's relentless. Are we going to get this bill or are we going to get something?
- [50:50]
Cleta Mitchell
Well, as soon, I'll tell you at the end of the week.
- [50:52]
Stephen K. Bannon
You have that sparkle in your eyes. The answer is something's working.
- [50:56]
Cleta Mitchell
I'll tell you. And then, and then we need to get the president to sign.
- [50:58]
Stephen K. Bannon
