Stephen Miller
Jobs many Americans do not want to do. So how do you. How does President Trump make sure that the effort to deport people who are not in this country legally doesn't end up hurting Americans who want safe borders. Absolutely. But also don't want to see even more higher prices in groceries? Well, I'm sure it's not your position, Jake. You're just asking the question that we should supply America's food with exploitative, illegal alien labor. I obviously don't think that's what you're implying. Only 1% of alien workers in the entire country work in agriculture. The top destination for illegal aliens are large cities like New York, like Los Angeles, and small industrial towns, of course, all across the heartland. As we've seen with the Biden floods, none of those illegal aliens are doing farm work. Those 30,000 legal aliens that Joe Biden dumped into springs. I'm talking about the ones that. But, no, no, but I'm explaining this. It's important to understand. Now you're kind of changing the subject. I mean, I'm, I will, I will go. I will. Give me 30 minutes. I'll go as deep as you want to. I don't have you and your audience. I don't have a third. I'm talking about the ones that could. That work in the agriculture industry. You can come back and talk about the ones in the cities.
Terry Schilling
I swear I'll do the.
Stephen Miller
I'll do the whole answ. The illegal aliens that Joe Biden brought into our country are not, full stop doing farm work. They are not the illegal aliens he brought in from Venezuela, from Haiti, from Nicaragua. They are not doing farm work. They are in our cities collecting welfare. As for the farmers, there is a guest worker program that President Trump supports. Over time as well, we will transition into automation so we'll never have to have this conversation ever again. But there's no universe in which this nation is going to allow the previous president to flood our nation with millions and millions of illegal aliens who just get to stay here. And we are especially not going to allow a subset of those illegal aliens to rape and murder our citizens. So we are going to unapologetically enforce our immigration laws. And as I'm sure you will celebrate, we are going to unleash the power and might of the US Government to eradicate the presence of transnational threats on our soil.
Steve Bannon
Tuesday, 28th January, the year of our 2025. I have waited a long time for that. That shows a level of confidence and don't give two Fs and we're going to take the. We're going to get this job done, and we're not taking it from the media anymore. Today was a historic. Today's an inflection point, folks. Caroline Levitt, first off, Taylor Bodowich, Steven Cheung, Caroline Levitt, the comms team over there under Susie Wiles, total confidence in what they're doing, have restructured the White House press corps, have put the enemy of the people, which is the mainstream media, in their place. Let them ask their questions. But see, Jake Tapper is not asking a question there. He's dead wrong. And when Miller says he wants to change this topic, screw you, dude. You're going to sit there and listen to the answer. You're going to listen to the answer and you're going to like it. Cnn, this is why people hate you and this is why no one watches you. They detest you. And Miller brought it to him with both barrels. And as you know, and I know, Stephen does not have the best bedside manner. He just does not. And it doesn't matter. He's not there to make you. You're not going to get a warm fuzzy listening to Stephen Miller. He's got a job to do, a task to do. And he said it to take care and to do it to remove 12 to 15 million illegal alien invaders that Biden brought into this country to destroy this republic. Yep. And you heard Cortez beforehand. Working class Hispanics will support you if you do this the most. Stevens down at Starr County, 97% Hispanic. 97% Hispanic. This is hardcore South Texas. 97% Hispanic. And Trump in 16. We lost it by 60%. That's 6, 0 eight years later, we win it by 16 points. That's 1 6. This is what I was saying in Denton, Texas at this speech on Saturday night with 1,000 people there. Soro spent hundreds in hundreds of millions of dollars to turn Texas purple and ultimately blue. Turn Texas blue. Remember that campaign? Why and how were they going to do it? Hispanics that the xenophobe nativist white nationalists were out to get them. Nothing could be farther from the truth. And they know that. Their lived experience tells them that. Stephen Miller's not going to back down. Caroline Levitt's not going to back down. And now you have a media corps that has the streaming services and the podcast. You're going to be getting constant information. You can't hide behind these BS narratives. Today they're sitting there whining about, oh, is the foreign aid cut off? And you know, is that hurting American Citizens, they didn't care about American citizens. They still don't care about American citizens. Some radical judge today gave a tro. And really what is Russ Vogt's bombshell? And this is getting control of the administrative state. What do you do? You choke it off from oxygen. What's its oxygen? Money, Cash money, Your dollars, taxpayer dollars. And they have no earthy idea where they're going. That's where they're shutting this down. Elon Musk and the guys at Doge, one of the first things they're going to do is they're following the money. Where does all this stuff go? We know where it comes from. Taxpayers to the treasury and into the apparatus. In the apparatus, who knows who's got it, who knows where it's going. And so all engines stop and they're freaking out President Trump every day. There's so many actions we're keeping up. There's a half a dozen to ten that would be major stories that that individual item would drive a news cycle that can't even get covered. It gets a link on Drudge, a couple links on Citizens Free Press, and boom, something happened just right before he came on air. Terry Schilling joins us. Terry, I'll let you announce another bombshell. If this was announced at any of the time, it would take up two or three days in the news cycle. And this is just, you know, it's like this, like houses, ba boom, ba boom, ba boom. It was like on Inauguration Day when those guns were going off nonstop. Terry Schilling, what did the president, United States. It's the lead story in the Wall Street Journal right now. What just happened, sir?
Terry Schilling
President Trump signed an executive order essentially banning gender transitions for anyone 19 years and younger. Steve, I sent you the full draft. This is a long executive order. I think it might be one of the longer ones that he has. But it bans the funding of this stuff. It instructs Tricare to no longer provide these types of services. It instructs the federal government to no longer rely on the WPATH guidelines. That's the fake research group and the expert group that just endorses sex changes for minors. They're the ones that were working with the HHS secretary last term under Biden to eliminate all age restrictions and all age recommendations so that you could get a gender transition as a five year old. This is probably the biggest victory for those that want to return to the normalcy of sex based governance around these policies instead of this gender identity nonsense. But Steve, I just, it's too Much winning almost, right? This is a huge victory for President Trump. He saw this for what it was, used on the campaign trail. He, he made promises to do this, but here's the thing, he kept those promises, Steve. There's never been a Republican like him, there's never been a politician like him, at least for the past several decades. It's a huge victory, not just for the pro family movement. This fight was started on War Room. Steve. You guys were the only ones that would hear our movement out and what we were trying to get accomplished, done. So I don't know, I'm here to say thank you. I'm here to make sure everyone here knows that they were part of something incredible. These types of movements, they take billions of dollars to get over the finish line. But we did it with all your guys help, probably the most. This is way bigger than I could have even imagined, Steve. I'll just put it that way. The protections that President Trump has signed into order today are way stronger and way bigger and better than I could have ever imagined.
Steve Bannon
This, the scale of this, I want to go back to it real quickly. The depth of it, the urgency of it. Those are the three things that are defining the days of thunder. But this just didn't start getting written on the morning of November 6th. This is about the confidence people had at America's first priorities at American Principles. Project over with Terry, with Brandon Showalter, with so many people, the people at Project 2025 CRA, working on these projects, working for years on this, all set to go. This, the length and depth of this executive order blows me even away about how well thought through it was. Your thoughts, sir?
Terry Schilling
Steve, you said it earlier about Stephen Miller. It's the confidence, it's the I don't give a f. Right. It is. We know what we're doing. We're done. We know the games you play. It's all boring. You're right, Steve. There were so many people that were part of this fight. I think about the detransitioners, right? Like Chloe Cole and Laura Becker, the people that sat down and did campaign ads with us to make sure voters knew what was at stake. Riley Gaines has been fantastic in supporting President Trump. There's been. And these parents. There's this January little John. She's got this heartbreaking story, but also of triumph where she wins back her daughter and got her to detransition, not go down this stuff. There's so many people that were part of this fight that told their stories that were very simple and they Just stood up and did the right thing. And they supported President Trump when he promised to do the right things. And it's, it's just absolutely beautiful. But, Steve, I think ultimately what this gets down to is President Trump and all of us. We had four years to really look back at how these guys played so dirty, how they deceived us. We need to stop the deceit, Steve. Stop the deceit needs to be the theme of this year because the media's been gaslighting us, our government's been gaslighting us. It's absolutely atrocious. And all the while, they've been gaslighting us on this gender and sex issue to build a four and a half billion dollar transgender industry of surgeries and hormone treatments for minors and adults. It's absolutely terrible. But their reign of terror is end. Here's the big takeaway, though, Steve. President Trump issues this executive order. It's not even the executive order that's gonna do it. It's the medical liability insurance that's going to do this. It's going to get jacked up probably starting tomorrow. If you're a provider that gives these surgeries and hormone treatments to minors, guess what's going up. Your medical liability insurance premiums. Those are gonna go through the roof. That's what's so sm. He thinks like a businessman and not necessarily like a politician. We're so lucky to have him. This is a huge victory for him, a huge victory for America and a huge victory for our future.
Steve Bannon
Just to give people a heads up, they'll go into federal court tonight, Correct? They'll drop an emergency filing tonight to try to stop this. Folks should know a judge just gave a TRO till Monday for arguments in the stopping of $3 trillion flowing through the system that OMB put out last night. A monumental. It wasn't even an executive order. It was just an action. It was all hands on deck. Hey, stop. All cash, right? They went to court right away. They're gonna go to court on this, no doubt.
Terry Schilling
Absolutely. But they're gonna fight us. There's too much money at stake. There's too much power at stake. And don't forget, there were a lot of politicians that lost this election over this issue. So they're not gonna go away quietly into the night. They're gonna fight us every single day. But that's same time, Steve. It's very similar to the strategy on stopping all these reckless federal grants that are harming our country is you put a stop in this, you stop them from doing it. And you bring into question the ethical and the medical liability aspect. Steve, this fight is going to be one. You know, a lot of people don't know this, but lobotomies are not illegal in America. They're totally legal, but no one will perform them on you because the medical liability insurance is way too high. They can't afford it. And that's how we're gonna end this gender insanity. This gender industry is through the medical liability insur.
Steve Bannon
Terry Schilling. Amazing work. Where do folks get you? Social media, American Principles project. All of it, sir.
Terry Schilling
Schilling, 1776 across all the major platforms. And you can check us out online@american principlesproject.org.
Steve Bannon
Thank you, brother. Appreciate you.
Terry Schilling
Thank you.
Steve Bannon
Mark that down your calendar. 28 January. This fight started years ago with Brandon Showalter and Terry Schilling. I couldn't even handle it at first. It's not my life. It's so depraved what they did, and they did it for money. Amazing. Donald Trump comes through with just another day at the office, a blockbuster executive order. Frank Gaffney and John Guandola continue the conversation. So I want to make sure this is positioned correctly because John's given his entire professional life on this. And Frank, I spent the last 20 years, you've spent much longer than that since you're in the Reagan administration. But we understand. And I was against the Iraq war. I was against the Afghanistan war. I was very adamant about that on the campaign in 16. We made a big deal about that. And I was kind of put in charge by President Trump to initially the first time with Erik Prince, try to get us out of Afghanistan before the deep state surrounding with a bunch of false information getting stained a couple more years. He wanted to get out immediately in the fight that's going on in particularly the staffing of the Pentagon, staffing of the State Department, the intelligence agencies, there are people because we do want to pivot to Asia. Frank and I are the head of the committee or two of the founders of Brian Kennedy, of the Committee on the President of China. We see the ccp, as Captain Fennell said, keep the main thing, the main thing, the existential, at least national security threat to us, besides our debt, maybe. And you can see in this AI situation the unrestricted warfare. But the Middle east, there's one thing to pivot, there's another thing to have restraint. We all want restraint. We have to. And I'm adamant about no more ground wars there. It's ridiculous. But you have to keep it in context. In the context is some of the great civilizations of the Middle East, Turkey, the Turkish, you know, Turkic, I guess civilization, Persia, Egypt has a strand, part of it, not all of it part of the strand of radical Islam that deals around Sharia, supremacism. And this is just a fact. And you see what's happening in Europe, you see what's happening in the United Kingdom. You see what happened in New Orleans a couple weeks ago. If we don't combat it there and don't figure out how to restrain it and constrain it and contain it there, it will be all over the United States or America. So, Frank, with that, you put up a piece and there's a big firefight going on right below the surface among people who are goodwill and respect each other, but have big differences of opinion on this. And some of it's gotten a little nasty, right? And there's been charges of anti Semitism or, you know, you're bowing to some of the. You're bowing to Israel. There's been some. Some nasty things said among people that are normally collegial. So tell us what's going on. What is this about? Is this some staffing at the Pentagon? Some people with their history with the Kochs and the Kochs have been kind of isolationist libertarians. There's real contention here. But as I keep saying, I think people are missing the part about Turkey and particularly Qatar. Qatar is the financier of this, the financier of a lot of what Persia's been doing. They're the financiers of the Muslim Brotherhood. They're financiers of what Turkey is doing. And they have their agent, the Muslim Brotherhood, not just all over the Middle east, but also in the United States of America. So can you frame it? And then I want to get John on, who's really dedicated his life to rooting this out here in the United States. Sir.
Frank Gaffney
Steve, thank you. Look, there's a lot to cover here, I would just say, about the issue on staffing. The question is, Donald Trump, I believe, was elected on a platform of getting away from the policies that have failed us dismally. The Biden administration. I think he is for peace through strength. I think he is for an America that is respected and powerful in the world. And I think there are people, and I'm not casting aspersions on their loyalty or anything else. I'm just simply saying they are in a very different mold. The Koch foundation types who have the idea of, well, they call it restraint, I think is more Accurately described as retreat and to the larger point that we have to focus on. And thank you for doing it, Steve. We're dealing with a phenomenon that is global in character. There's no place to retreat from it. The Sharia supremacists, and we use that term very advisedly, Steve, because we want to make it clear that lots of Muslims don't subscribe to this. Well, I call it the totalitarian operating code of Islam. The trouble is that the authorities of Islam say that's the true faith. They say people who don't subscribe to it are apostates, they can be killed. They say that the agenda of Sharia, which is to use jihad to achieve global dominance, must be pursued. And if you're not with that program, you're A, not a Muslim, and B, you're likely to find yourself at the wrong end of the sword, especially if you're not a Muslim. But the point is, what they're doing to Israel today is not just Israel's war. It is a war between these Sharia supremacists and Western civilization, Judeo Christian civilization. Make no mistake about it. We are the ultimate obstacle to the realization of those global ambitions. So they have to destroy us, too. And as my friend John Guandolo will talk about, Steve, they have built, they have put into place, they are operating today across America, the kind of infrastructure of mosques and Islamic centers and madrassas. When I'm talking about them, I'm talking about Sharia supremacists. They're the Muslim Brotherhood, they're the Turks, they're the Qataris, they're the Iranians. They have lots of differences amongst them ethnic and, you know, various types of Islam. But the bottom line is all the same. Sharia, they must rule the world, and we stand in the way. Therefore, that infrastructure is prepared to be used by the tens, maybe hundreds of thousands of jihadists that Joe Biden let into this country. We know he brought in 70 to 100,000 just from the Taliban, Afghanistan alone, legally. So this is the point that I want John to explore with you. Because if we don't understand that presence, that reality, we're.
Steve Bannon
John Guandola, you're one of the world's experts on this, and you've had tremendous praise, but you've also been criticized severely. Is the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organization? Yes or no?
John Guandolo
Yes, of course.
Steve Bannon
Just.
John Guandolo
All you got to do is read their Muslim.
Steve Bannon
Hang on, hang on. Is the Muslim Brotherhood in the United States of America in any significant way?
John Guandolo
Yes, they control almost all.
Steve Bannon
Is the Muslim Brotherhood in the Muslim Brotherhood, that's in the United States. Is it a terrorist organization? As currently constituted, yes. Is Qatar one of the principal financiers of the Muslim Brotherhood?
John Guandolo
Yes.
Steve Bannon
How do you know that?
John Guandolo
We have a significant amount of information, and you can just look at what Qatar does. The way. The amount of information we have about Qatar, not just intel and information we have from sources here in the US and where the money comes from. We can look at Qatar along with these other nations we talked about earlier today that are funding, providing resources, and they're doing. If you look at the template of how the Islamic movement, specifically the Muslim Brotherhood movement, operates in Europe and elsewhere, but specifically in North America and the United States, Qatar is right there providing financial resources. They're doing all the subversion in the religious, political, media, education community, from colleges down to high schools. They're doing the propaganda within the template that the Islamic movement is using. And I want to. And if I could just say this.
Steve Bannon
Radical. Yeah, go ahead. Sure.
Frank Gaffney
Yep.
John Guandolo
Well, you. You mentioned China, you mentioned these other countries. I want to make sure your audience understands it. We are. And Frank just highlighted it. We're in a war, and the war is a partnership between the communist movement and the Islamic movement. You've got communist China a few years ago entered into a strategic partnership with the Islamic Republic of Iran, which is one of the largest state sponsors.
Steve Bannon
Full stop. I'm not interested in Persia. I'm not interested in that tonight. I understand. And we'll get into more of that later. I'm not. I got. There's a reason. There's a method to my madness here. I want to be very precise. John, just work with me on this, okay? Don't wander. Just work.
Terry Schilling
All right.
Steve Bannon
Is the. Is Qatar. These court cases you mentioned today are. Cutter, does. Does the hand of Qatar come up in these court cases as financing radical Islamic institutions and movements in the United States?
John Guandolo
Well, there's been significant testimony, open and closed door testimony about Qatar's financing of global terrorism. Yes. And there's also a fair amount of leaked documents as well.
Steve Bannon
Yes. Does the United States most significant base in the. In the. Among the Gulf, Persian Gulf, in Qatar, Sir.
John Guandolo
Yeah, It's CENTCOM headquarters in Qatar, so.
Steve Bannon
CENTCOM headquarters. Okay. You got to help me walk through this. You're saying that Qatar. I understand what the Persians do. You're saying Qatar is one of the principal, if not the principal, underwriter of the Muslim Brotherhood, and the Muslim Brotherhood is a terrorist organization and has an apparatus in the United States which is part of a terrorist apparatus and that they're financed by Qatar. Please explain to our audience how the most significant base that we have in the Middle east and including, not including the Tampa headquarters, but the four deployed headquarters for the combatant commander, which would be centcom, happens to be in a country that finances a terrorist organization because they would by definition, correct me if I'm wrong, be a terrorist financing entity. Correct?
Michael Walsh
Correct.
John Guandolo
And I would answer your question by saying from 911 forward, and you can go back before 9 11, the US government and the national security apparatus, including the DoD, has failed to do its basic mission, which is to assess a threat based on who they say they are and why they say they're fighting. And the advisors, the Islamic advisors the US has used from President Clinton to today, from President Clinton having Abdurrahman Al Amoudi, the largest financier for Al Qaeda in North America, to Mr. Biden having Meher Bittar, a Hamas operative, as the director of intelligence for the National Security Council and everything in between, it has been a complete goat rope. And it has been not only. I wouldn't just call it unprofessional, I'd call it malfeasance. I'd call it criminal negligence. And that's from all the administrations from Bush to Biden. We could go through so many examples of where the US Government worked with known terrorist leaders from Hezbollah, Al Qaeda, isis. I think Al Qaeda. You know, Al Amoudi, being in the Clinton administration for eight years would give you an idea of how well the FBI and Secret Service are working. But you can bring it all right up to today and the key positions, not only in the civilian government, in the defense industry, you look at who's in the hr, who's doing the policy writing. And here's the point that I was trying to make earlier, Steve. This is a war. And you do not win wars by fixing policies. You do it by putting your finger on the enemy and vanquishing the enemy. And that enemy has a massive network here in the United States that is identifiable and has identified.
Steve Bannon
Hang on one second. We're gonna take a short commercial break. John Guandola, one of the experts in all things radical Islam, and of course, our own Frank Gaffney. Michael Walsh will join us also after a short commercial break.
Unknown Speaker
Big victory on the 5th of November. Now the work can finally start on the big issues facing the country. One of the biggest is the national debt and the deficits that drive it. Hey, you think the country's broke? The country is broke. We're just printing money to keep this house of cards going. The strategy remains the same for you. You got to diversify, diversify your savings. That's why buy gold from Birch Gold. So many things are out of your control, out of the President's control. It's important to have a safe haven for your savings. Birch Gold Group, my gold company, will help you convert an IRA or 401k into an IRA into physical gold. Let me repeat that. Convert your IRA or 401k into an IRA in physical gold. And the best news? It doesn't cost you a penny. Text banded to 989-898 get your free info kit. Plus right now through Black Friday, you receive a free 1 ounce Silver Eagle for every $5,000 you purchase. Let me repeat that, a free 1 ounce Silver Eagle for EVERY $5,000 purchase. Protect your savings with Birch Gold. Text Bannon to 989-898 and claim your eligibility for your free silver. Today, I want to warn you of a huge change that could be coming to our money in our bank accounts. First, think back to 9 11, shortly after the government pushed through the Patriot Act. This gave the government power to spy on innocent Americans by monitoring our phone and email and tracking our movement across the Internet. Now Jim Rickards, editor of the independent financial newsletter, Strategic Intelligence and New York Times bestselling author, is warning about a coming event that could elevate this governmental surveillance to a terrifying new level. In fact, some of the guests I've had on the War Room believe that the government will soon expand their powers to track our every move. If we say the wrong things on social media, donate to the wrong causes, buy firearms, or even vote maga, the government may be able to shut us out of our bank accounts. I can't say for sure if this will happen, but it's an interesting and dire warning. Fortunately, Jim Rickards, an American patriot and friend of mine, has made it his mission to educate us on what he believes is coming and how to protect yourself from the possibility of programmable money. Watch Jim's warning video now before it's censored like I've been in the past. Go to rickardswarroom.com that's rickardswarroom.com now to see the video.
Steve Bannon
You ever think, how can I work.
Unknown Speaker
This hard and still be in debt? The piles of overdue bills, the threatening phone calls, and never having money to do anything. It just won't stop. You're trapped in debt. Done with. Debt is the way out. They've developed aggressive new strategies to end your debt Permanently Done With Debt stands between you and harassing bill collectors. They tirelessly negotiate with your creditors to lower or even forgive what you owe. And they do it all without bankruptcy or new additional loans.

Michael Walsh
War Room.
John Guandolo
Here's your host, Stephen K. Band.
Steve Bannon
Okay, Guandola. So, Guandola, how does it work that. So we have centcom's Ford headquarters and the entire headquarters for everything we're doing in central Command, the combatant commanders in Qatar. Qatar then makes, I don't know, billions and billions of dollars, Hundreds of billions, tens of billions every year in oil and gas. They have huge deals with, I think Exxon and major seven sister oil companies. They put massive amounts of money into private equity funds, hedge funds here in the United States, real estate funds. They own tons of real estate, particularly in a random city, I want to say New York City. They're in business with tons of real estate developers because they will put up money at very attractive terms. How does that is? Do we not take terror financing serious? Or do people say, hey, John's a good guy, but his hair's on fire and they're really not that bad. And you know, every country has to deal with this to make sure they're not overthrown by these nutcases that'll drive up with a bomb and a truck. And that's how they keep them. They throw them a few dollars and have a police force that kind of keeps them in control. And this is why you don't have chaos in the Middle East. But they're businessmen and we do business with them, and you got to take their money, sir.
John Guandolo
So I think there are a couple points to be made. One, Qatar is a party to the oic, the Organization of Islamic Conference Cooperation. Now they change the name, and in 1990, they approved the OIC. By the way, the largest voting bloc in the UN and in 1993, they served the Cairo Declaration on Human Rights and Islam to the United Nation, which states we, the entire Muslim world at the head of state and king level, including Qatar, we only view human rights through the lens of Sharia. So the things that Sharia states are true, like non Muslims must convert or be killed. Unless you're Jewish, Christians or Astrin, then you convert, you submit, pay the non Muslim poll tax or be killed. Homosexuals are killed, people commit adultery are killed. Those who leave Islam are killed. Lying is obligatory. Muslims lying to non Muslims obligatory. Torture is lawful. Rape is lawful of the non Muslim, all these things. That's Qatar. And Qatar is not some moderate country with a handful of nut bags or whatever.
Steve Bannon
Okay, okay, let's assume, Hang on. Let's assume for purposes of discussion, I agree with you and you lay out the facts. How is it then that centcom's forward command of the entire region, the combatant commander and every businessman finance Wall street, how are they then in business with these guys?
John Guandolo
Well, that's a great question. Let me answer that with a very short vignette. And that is when I got recruited out of the FBI into the DoD by Rich Hagens, who became, as you know, the Director of Strategic Planning for the national security council under Mr. Trump. The first time I briefed many members of Congress, three and four star generals, senior government officials, former National Security advisors, Attorney Generals, directors of FBI, CIA, dia, and not one of them ever, including Chairman of Homeland Security Committee, Chairman of Intelligence Committee, had a clue about the global Islamic movement, the movement here in the United States, their doctrine, their strategy, and how they actually operate against the United States and Western interests. It was astounding to me coming out of the FBI believing still that our leaders, and these are a lot of the people I briefed are smart, patriotic men and women. The point to be made here is the primary focus of the war from the enemy's perspective is not in the kinetic, it's not blowing things up. It's not tanks, bombs, ships, guns. It is in the information battle space. It is in espionage, counterintelligence, subverting the key institutions of the west, especially the United States, religious media, political education, as well as the security services. It is propaganda. It is economic warfare. It's all of it. So if I can demonstrate that 100% of published Islamic law, including the most widely used textbooks in U.S. islamic schools for 12 year olds, teaches that the purpose of Islam is to wage war against the non Muslim community, to establish an Islamic state under Sharia and our leaders will tell you the exact opposite of what 10, 11 and 12 year old Muslim children are being taught in US Islamic schools. That's complete dominance in the information battle space. And it means we will lose the war because our leaders, both sides of the political aisle, have demonstrated they are catastrophically incompetent, which makes them criminally negligent because Americans are dead overseas and here in the United States, in places like Louisiana and elsewhere, because our leaders don't know this.
Steve Bannon
Yeah, I think it's willful ignorance. And Frank, I'm going to turn to you the last question to John and then I go to you and I've got to wrap up because of time. If Israel did not exist is the Muslim Brotherhood and its financier Cutter. And that element in Turkey that looks at the reestablishment of a caliphate with Turkey at the head of it, a reconstitution of the Ottoman Empire and their control with Qatar of the two holy sites is if Israel did not exist, wasn't around, would it make any difference to their war against the west given the United States and what we stand for as a constitutional republic based upon principles of the Judeo Christian West. But if Israel did not exist in the Middle east, if there had been no Zionist movement, they had gone back, would it make any difference to the Muslim Brotherhood?
John Guandolo
Sir, it would only in that their strategic and tactical focus could go could be more on the west in Europe and the United States. Their stated objective in their bylaws is simply to establish an Islamic state under Sharia and to destroy all UN Islamic governments. And by the way, that includes governments in the Muslim world that should be run by Sharia. And I will point out as evidence of the catastrophic failure of our government to deal with these matters, you have the four leaders on the planet that were going after Al Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood more than anyone else. Mubarak, Hosni Mubarak of Egypt, Saddam Hussein, Muammar Gaddafi and Bashir Al Assad. Well, we killed. We killed two. We pushed one out of power. Hosni Mubarak and we just removed Bashar Al Assad. Who took charge? The adversaries of liberty took charge at the hands of the US leadership. We can point the fingers elsewhere, but America at a minimum, tipped its hat and in the case of three of them, actively participated in that. That is how catastrophically stupid, ignorant, dangerous, willfully, we call it whatever you want. Criminally negligent our leaders have been for the last 25 years.
Steve Bannon
Frank, your recommendation to President Trump, we got to bounce here but it's very highly, you know, people think very highly of. And you've thought this through a lot. What is your. Because I make the case that if Israel didn't exist in regards to the Muslim Brotherhood and their not Islam, but this form of radical Islam that supports Sharia supremacy in a Sharia supremacist state, that the United States is the target and has been the target. What would be your recommendation to President Trump?
Frank Gaffney
My recommendation, building on what John has said, with which I agree completely, is we have to treat this as an enemy inside the United States bent on our destruction. And that means, as I believe Donald Trump himself said on August 15, 2016, in remarkable speech we talked about earlier in the day, you need to strip out and root out, or worst of those effects, the support networks for what he called radical Islamic terrorism. A more accurate term, I think, is Sharia supremacism. Yes, it's radical. Yes, it involves terror. But it is about Sharia and imposing it on all of us. And just a closing thought, Steve, just introduced into evidence, John Guandola was interrogating the guy that was Bill Clinton's adviser on all of this, Abdurahman Al Amoudi, for his Al Qaeda ties as his squad at the FBI was raiding a safe house in Annandale, Virginia, and came across this document. It's called the Explanatory Memorandum on the Strategic Goal of the Group in North America. And in it, it says literally these words, the work of the Brotherhood in America is a kind of grand jihad in destroying Western civilization from within so that it is eliminated and Allah's religion is made victorious over all other religions. They could not be more clear about their purpose. This is their playbook. This is what they're acting on. And if we don't take to heart and thank you for giving us the chance to lay this out as well as John has done, all of the evidence that we have not understood the problem, we have not correctly worked the problem, and we are going to be destroyed by the problem unless we take corrective action, starting with designating this terrorist group, the Muslim Brotherhood, as just that, rolling it up, shutting down these mosque complexes and these Islamic centers and all the rest of them, which, going back to Muhammad's time, Steve, as you know, are, yeah, houses of worship part time. But they're everything from community centers to organizing facilities to arsenals used to equip and train jihadists. And that's a problem that is central to what we're facing now with this infrastructure, especially with these thousands and thousands of jihadists that have been invented into our country to marry up with what's in those mosques.
Steve Bannon
And the pressure is on those Muslims that just want to get on with their life and be good citizens. John, I'm going to have you and Frank back on hopefully this week to talk about the Persian. We're going to pivot to the Persian element of this because this is a two banger, right? You got Turkey on one side, you got Persia on the other, and it's rolling and it's rolling hard and people better wake up about this. And I am the, since I served off the coast of Persia, I'm the last person in the world that wants to go to war with Persia. But we need a deep think about exactly what our strategy is, regardless if Israel existed or it did not. This is about the United States of America. Frank Gaffney, social media, where they go.
Frank Gaffney
Sir, Institute for the American Future is my new home. It's usfuture.org, you can find out all about our various coalitions, including ones on China sovereignty and of course, the Victory Coalition, which has brought us much of what we've just talked about. And Steve, thank you for taking the time to bring us all up to speed on this. We got to get this right. You're exactly right.
Steve Bannon
Yeah. We have to get this right. John, you're a patriot and a hero. Where do people go to find you, Sir?
John Guandolo
Thanks, Steve. JohnGuandolo.com JohnGuandolo.com is the website and JGuandolo 54271 is the Twitter handle. I think it's like my fifth Twitter account so far. It's holding steady now that the good guys are back in charge, I guess hopefully that'll stay the case.
Steve Bannon
I've had Guandola and Gaffney on since I started doing radio back in what, 2010, 2011. Guys, thank you so much. We won a lot of victories and we've, we've lost a couple of three, too. Also, Muslim Brotherhood is a terrorist organization, full stop. More about that. Hopefully get the guys back this week. Birchgold.com, end of the dollar empire, modern monetary theory. People are raving about this. Philip Pack and the team had a little thing to do with it, too. Get it? We wrote it. Because now more than we need to understand the theory that got us into this jam. What Wall street believed or what they sold as their belief to the political class, an absolute disaster. Also find investing in gold in the age of Trump. Bannon, take your phone out. B A N N O N 989-898. Check it out. Today I was going to get my copy. I got my copy of Last Stand right in back of me. It's got papers all in it and marks on it. But the staff is out getting ready for the Matt Boyle. Having a Matt Boyle war room event tonight. Asked the first question or asked the second question. Back at Mike Allen today with Caroline Levitt. The first press. Press briefing. A rage to conquer. Waited for this one for a long time. Mike Walsh. Michael Walsh, another editor at Breitbart, back in the old days, 12 battles that changed the course of Western history. Walsh, it's amazing. You cannot put this book down. You selected some of the best battles. And I have a question. You have a theory. The case, Walsh, because you're a public intellectual and I want to quote and I want you to back it up. That battle is the principal agent of societal change. That battle is the principal agent of societal change. I thought it was just killing a lot of warriors and killing a lot of civilians. How did it get to be the principal, not a agent, the principal agent of societal change? Michael Walsh.
Michael Walsh
Well, thanks for having me on, Steve. You go back to Immanuel Kant in the late 18th century, who posits that peace is the aberration and war is the natural state of mankind in an essay he wrote called Perpetual Peace. And then we see as warfare develops throughout the 19th and 20th and into the 21st centuries, that societies are irrevocably changed when war is fought to a dispositive conclusion. So we've been. I was listening with interest to your guests. We're in the middle of the forever war with radical Islam, as all you and Frank and John pointed out. But these fights go back 1,000 years, literally. But Japan was a different place after 1945. Germany is a different place. It bears no resemblance to Prussian, Bismarckian Germany any longer. The Soviet Union collapsed. And because it lost the Cold War, a whole new society has evolved. Plus, war accelerates technology. It encourages strategic thinking. It calls into being a class of masculine, not feminine, masculine warriors that really rearrange the pieces of the chessboard. It's not a permanent solution, but it's a big solution to intractable problems.
Steve Bannon
Talk to me about the battle you select. You select these battles very clearly. And people got to get this. A rage to conquer. 12 battles that changed the course of Western history. Michael Walsher did Last Stands, the Audience Love made it turn into a bestseller. Why did you pick this battle with Alexander? Why did you pick it about between him and King Darius.
Michael Walsh
Yeah. Well, I thought for each one of the battles, some battles have actually one commander has two battles, and that's Bohemond during the First Crusade. But I wanted to do several things. One is praise toxic masculinity because of its dispositive nature. Wars don't end with negotiation. They only end with finality. And as you know, I'm a big fan of General Grant, and that's why the Civil war ended the way it did. But I wanted each commander's masterpiece. So we have Alexander at Gaugamela, where he defeats Darius for the third time and ends the Persian Empire. I chose Caesar at Alesia, where he captures Vercingetorix, the Gaulish commander, and turns Gaul into a Roman province, which turns into France. Constantine the Great defeats his rival.
Steve Bannon
But hang on. There's a point I want to make that ties it to the last one. After the Clausewitz interview. You do Achilles at Ilium. Really? The Trojan War. That is Greece and Turkey, right? Because the Trojans were Turk and Alexander versus the Persians, Greeks versus the Persians. This is the discussion we're having today about radical Islam in Turkey, in Persia, and all of it. It hasn't changed. It's the west versus these folks.
Terry Schilling
Right?
Steve Bannon
There may be a different reason, but this is a war that's been going on for 25. For 3,000 years, sir.
Michael Walsh
Yes, it has. And I make the point in Rage to Conquer that. The Trojan War is the template for west versus East. It is the Macedonian Greeks against what were Hittite peoples. We believe in Troy at that time. But almost every one of these fights involves the east versus the west, and that has never been fought to a dispositive conclusion. Now, your two guests were just talking about the ultimate goal of Sharia centric societies. And they have an objective. Steve, you're a military guy. I grew up in the Marine Corps. Objectives are really important. And we haven't had an objective for victory since 1945, since Roosevelt declared war and said, we will fight this and God will to the end. There was no question of negotiating with Japan or Germany. So we have to learn from what did the earlier commanders do? How did they see war objectively, tactically, and strategically? And in each case, we're fighting a very, very similar enemy. It interested me, as I was writing about all these battles, that when the west encounters the east, whether they were Arabs or Turks or whoever they were fighting during the First Crusade was obviously Turks and Arabs. Their military tactics were so different from the west that it took a while to react to them. Then we got used to them. We kind of have learned.
Steve Bannon
MICHAEL where do they get the book is a rage to conquer 12 battles that change Change the Course of Western History. If you've got a someone close to you that likes military history, this is the best. MICHAEL Walsh, Social Media we have about 30 seconds. Social media where do they get the book?
Michael Walsh

He reinforces the necessity of strict immigration enforcement to protect American jobs and maintain safe borders.
The discussion underscores the tension between maintaining supply chains and ensuring that immigration policies do not inadvertently harm American workers or inflate consumer prices.
Speakers: Steve Bannon and Terry Schilling
