Unknown Politician
In this great country, our system that was gifted to us by the framers of the Constitution should be one where the people of Texas are able to decide which elected officials have the ability and honor to represent them in Washington. Instead, Republican politicians want to choose their voters. That is wrong. And it will undermine the quality of life of the people of this great state. It has been said in the early days of the Republic that when the people fear the government, there is tyranny. But when the government fears the people, there is liberty. So this fight is not over. It's just beginning.
Political Analyst
Yeah, it could make a huge difference. This, in fact, could win or maintain control for the Republicans in the House of Representatives. What are you talking about? Well, Texas has 38 congressional districts. Look at those that Trump won last year by at least 10 percentage points. Under the current lines, it's 25. Under the proposed lines, it's 30. That's 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Five potential pickup opportunities for the Republican Party. They are playing hardball at this particular point. And right now it seems to me that Democrats are actually playing close to the Little League Pee Wee.
Political Commentator
So five seats. What would five seats in Texas do for Republicans in Congress?
Brian E. Harrison
Overall?
Political Analyst
You might think five seats is just five seats. But keep in mind this margin to spare for the House majority. In 2020, the Democrats had four seats. 2022 Republicans had four seats. This time around, two seats for Republicans out of the 2024 elections. Five seats can make all the difference in the world. And that is why Republicans in Texas providing five pickup seat opportunities could in fact make the difference between Republicans losing control of the House of Representatives and maintaining control of the House of Representatives.
Political Commentator
And some voting shifts within in Texas.
Brian E. Harrison
Might be adding fuel to this.
Political Analyst
Exactly right. They wouldn't necessarily be able to do this if in fact Republicans. Donald Trump did not do so much better among Latino voters last time around than he did in 2020 because four of the pickup opportunities are majority Hispanic seats in 2024.
Steve Bannon
Get this.
Political Analyst
Donald Trump actually won Latino voters by 10 points in Texas in 2020. It was Joe Biden who won him by 17 points. That's a nearly a 30 point switcheroo. So this in my mind is fueling these potential pickup opportunities for Republicans. As I said at the beginning of this, Republicans are playing hardball. It's going to be interesting to see if Democrats can actually answer this or are they going to be stuck in the Little League?
Steve Bannon
Thursday, 31st July, year of Allure 2025 hardball. And Brian Harrison started the hardball down there in the smash mouth on this most important of topics, the redistricting in Texas. So, Brian, thank you, thank you for holding over to the 6 o' clock hour.
Wade Miller
Walk us through the process.
Steve Bannon
We've got everybody's attention. You got Hakeem Jeffries. The news now is filled with this. What happens? How do we bring this home and stick the landing?
Brian E. Harrison
Sir, that's the exactly right question. Look, the stakes, as we were saying a minute ago, could not be higher. The future of America runs through the great state of Texas. And voters in the state of Texas have given Republicans every lever of power in our state. The governor's mansion, lieutenant governor's office, massive majorities, the Texas House and the Texas Senate. But to get your viewers and the posse all up to speed on how we got here, we're not in a regular session. Our regular session already ended. And we failed to redistrict that. Quite frankly, we failed to do almost any bold Republican thing because of the amount of power that RINOs in the Texas government give to radical leftist Democrats. So we didn't get redistricting done in regular session. The president asked us to do it, the governor put it on the agenda. And here we are in special session. But we're almost halfway through special session. The DNC knows the stakes. They've been having rallies with thousands of people all over the state. We've got the maps. And where we are is tomorrow morning, 10am in Austin will be another hearing. I think this is the fourth redistricting hearing from the Texas House on the redistricting plans. And what I think should happen, quite frankly, the state of Texas should have already led. We should have done this during the regular session. We should have already gotten it finished. We're halfway through special session. We should have done it by now. And as far as I'm concerned, the second that they're finished hearing the testimony tomorrow, there's nothing stopping the Texas House Redistricting Committee from immediately calling a vote. If they've got the hearing. They obviously have a quorum. Vote the map out, send it to the body, let's pass this thing. And let's make sure that people understand that even though the Democrats are threatening all of these things, these quorum breaks and whatever, my good friends at the center for Renewing America put out a great paper outlining the cold, simple facts. Republicans need to fight as hard for the next generation as the Democrats do. And Republicans in Texas, the governor, Lieutenant Governor, speaker, they have all the tools they need to force the Democrats to show up, force their Hands allow us to vote up or down on these maps. And if we can get a vote up or down, I firmly believe that these maps will pass. And we have the potential to add five seats which could make or break the decision for whether or not the United States Congress falls to the radical leftist Marxist Democrats. And in the upcoming midterms, the stakes could never be higher. And Texas, Texans and conservative Republicans across America need elected Republicans in the state of Texas to start acting like the bold conservative leaders that their voters expect and that they deserve.
Steve Bannon
Brian, your social media will be following tonight and tomorrow. You're absolutely correct. Vote the map out. That's the trust. So where do people follow you, sir?
Brian E. Harrison
At Brian E. Harrison on X. And please go like follow share At Brian E. Harrison on X. None of the truth of what's going on on the ground is being told by the Austin media or the DC media. So I post updates and videos from the floor every day. At Brian E. Harrison on X. And Steve and the posse, I gotta tell you, y' all have been instrumental in just about every. Even though there haven't been many, pretty much every conservative victory we've been able to squeeze out of the unit party establishment in Austin has come from grassroots patriots like the posse. So really appreciate everything you and the posse are doing.
Steve Bannon
Thank you, sir. You guys are doing the hard work. The posse is doing an amazing job right here. And this is, this is, this is. You can't get any more important than this. So we're going to be pounded through all the way through. Thank you, sir. Appreciate you.
Brian E. Harrison
But God bless you all.
Steve Bannon
Cleo. Cleo Pascal. Cleo, you're off of, I don't know, like a 36 hour flight. Where are you standing in front of, ma'? Am.
Cleo Pascal
Hi, I'm in the United States of America in Saipan, on, in the territory of the Commonwealth of Northern Mariana, right in front of this beautiful defunct casino that was part of the project that was running billions of dollars, Chinese dollars, through this economy, which some analysts were saying there's no way that could possibly be legal. And the money that you can see Chinese workers going back and forth in front behind me there. They showed up soon after I set up the camera. This is a location where the governor who was trying to get rid of corruption and get rid of Chinese influence operations, died on July 23rd. And I'm here for the funeral which will happen on August 2nd. August 1st, D.C. time.
Steve Bannon
Yeah, we're going to, by the way, so a programming Note Starting at 7:00pm Tomorrow after the 6:00 clock show. We're going to go live. We're going to stream the entire state funeral. We'll have. I'll be making analysis and observations. We're going to have some other people on here too. This is very important because you said you've been flying for, I don't know, a day and a half. People, you got to understand something. She's still in the United States of America. And this is United States of America that we shed blood, you know, about 80 years ago of the greatest generation to make sure that we could take and hold places like Saipan. And the people there made a decision they wanted to. After that they wanted to be part of the United States of America. Here's the problem. The Chinese Communist Party corruption there, and the Chinese Communist Party use it as a way just to get entry into the United States of America with no fare thee well. This is what we have to change the situation there with. And we got to restart the investigation on this casino. We got to get to the bottom of who was selling the American people out, who are selling out the people of Saipan and Northern Marianas Islands. We got to get to the bottom of it. And that's why Cleo's there for us. And that's why we're going to stream this tomorrow night and stay up as long as it takes to make sure that we honor this governor who was a hero who quote, unquote, mysteriously died, you know, standing and doing his duty because he was anti ccp, was he not, Cleo?
Cleo Pascal
He was pro freedom and pro transparency and anti corruption. And of course that makes you anti ccp. And you mentioned how, how long it took me to get here. Well, that's how long he had to travel every time he went to D.C. to try to ask for help from FBI, from Treasury, from anybody. He kept asking over and over from dod. He make this long, long journey in order to be able just to ask his capital for help in cleaning up this, this, this thing. It looks like. Like we're in Vegas or something there. There are about 45,000 people who live in all of the Commonwealth and Northern Mariana Islands. It's completely out of proportion. It's by far the biggest building and it's a crumbling, rotting wreck that was built by the Chinese on an ancient burial ground. If you can just get. The story gets worse and worse and worse. And the other thing is that when he would travel to D.C. he'd often stop off along the way in Honolulu to talk to Indo Pacon. And if you went across the street on that base to Camp Smith, where Marfor Pack is. He would see on the wall there's a massive map of the World War II battlefield on the wall of Marfor Pack's headquarters. And on that map they've got Tinian, which is the island to the south of us, to the north of Saipan. So he would walk in and people at Indo Pakong would say, we love you, we care for you, you're such an important part of America. And he'd walk across the street and the map of where the Americans died was wrong. And so, you know, we need to connect all these dots and get the message back to Washington. Something has to change. And I have to say though, by the way, the people who understand this area the best are the Marines. They really, really care and it wasn't their fault. That map's not their faul fault. But it needs to never seems to go high enough to actually get fixed.
Steve Bannon
We're working on right now that, that, that relic and back you was a money laundering operation for the Chinese Communist Party and to basically influence and the part of the influence operation to fund it and also to corrupt corrupt officials so they could use it to come in and out as they want with no regulation whatsoever to come into the territories United States once again. She took an 18, you know, went to, went to, went to Tokyo airport, then came south. You know, it's, I don't know, it's an 18, 24 hour flight. She's still in the United States of America. Folks. This is what's so important about the three island change. We had the vast Pacific kind of in back of her, right, because it's the natural strategic heartland of our continental defense. This is what, this is what the hemispheric defense is predicated upon. That yesterday, remember you're going to have the tsunami and the waves are going to take over everything from Honolulu to LA to San Francisco. It didn't happen. And why the ocean is so vast. Okay, this is our strategic heartland. In a minute we're going to have Tom Dan's up in Alaska on the Arctic on the other side of it. And still by the way, he's looking out, you know, he's right near the Pacific Ocean, which you know, borders Alaska. This is vast in the strategic heartland. That's why this is so important. And you know, who knows this? Not just the United States Marines who had to fight bloody battles to basically take this back from the Japanese Imperial army and hold it, but the Chinese Communist Party, they know it better than anybody. And that's why they're trying to infiltrate American officials in these areas, ma'. Am.
Cleo Pascal
Yes. And we are about a 45 minute flight from Guam and you had that very, that excellent sort of scenario of an attack on the US Yesterday. And it started with drones being launched from submarines off of Guam. Well, Chinese can arrive here without a visa and by the hundreds, they're going illegally to Guam. You don't need submarines. They can launch it from their shed in the backyard. I mean, this is, the border is wide open. And this crossover zone between political warfare and kinetic warfare is huge. Captain Fennell talks about the need to build up the kinetic part, which is absolutely essential. And at the same time, this kind of left of bang part, this political warfare front is wide open. So please, let's do something about it.
Steve Bannon
Yes. Cleo, what's your social media? We're going to be up to speed with you for the entire time you're there. Thank you so much for going over. It's a brutal flight. But you realize as we do, we're going to stream it. We must pay respects to a great American that died in service to his country. And we will do that here in the war room. And Cleo will be there for the entire time. What's your social media, ma'? Am?
Cleo Pascal
Thank you. I'm on X. My name Cleopaskal, C L E O P A S K A L and I have a very lonely Getter account because somebody took my name. So it's real Cleo. But some people might thought I'm like the real Ms. Cleo or something if anybody's old enough to remember that. So I've got real Cleo and Getter, but I'm mostly over on X.
Steve Bannon
Ma'.
Wade Miller
Am.
Steve Bannon
Thank you so much. Appreciate you. Be back in touch tonight.
Tom Dan
Later.
Steve Bannon
Wade Miller from cr. Wade, before I get into all the CRA business as a Marine, Saipan, Guam, these are, they're burned into the soul of the United States Marine Corps, sir.
Political Commentator
Absolutely. And for your listeners and viewers, I was not on those islands in those campaigns. I'm a little bit younger, but absolutely. They're part of the lore of the success of the, the Marine Corps. So it's important politically and emotionally for the Marine Corps that these problems get solved.
Steve Bannon
No to honor. I keep telling people, they say about the greatest Generation and they thank them for their service. You want to thank them for their service, respect and honor what they died for. I mean, we all, we talk about Normandy and Normandy. Normandy was horrific. The casualties there were unbelievable. And it was A, it was a slaughterhouse. And the brave U.S. army and in the U.S. army, Air Corps, the Navy, everybody that, that, that, that got us through Normandy and into that battle and then up over into Germany is, is, it was amazing, obviously, but the Pacific doesn't get quite the. And you had, you had Normandy, like invasions, right, in 1944 and 45, like every couple of weeks, multiple islands. And these are these little atolls. And I got to tell you, these, when you go out there and see it and you understand the scale of these battles, it just, it blows your way. And so that's what to honor their service. Let's honor what they fought and died for. And the people there are American through and through. And that's why we got to make sure we defend this. And the Chinese Communist Party, they understand how important this is. That's why they're there trying to corrupt officials. That's why they had this casino. We got to get to the bottom of all of it. Okay, we had Mike Lee up today. Look, here's what's got us disturbed. And I thank you for breaking out today when the big beautiful bill that looks like it's kicking in, you know, and getting some traction on the economic side. We got 3% growth. Part of the deal was we were also going to have rescissions, wouldn't be part of the bill. That's where the House guy said, okay, we'll take the Senate, although the Senate bill's got more problems in the House. But it was rescissions, pocket rescissions, impoundments, all of it, to make sure that in 2025 and in 26, but starting in 25, we're going to clean up some of this mess. Now, we did the first rescissions. It was small but, but emblematic. And we know today, by the way, that the, the Democrats and I think the Senate doing the towel, they're not going to try to redo the PBS and npr that shows you how powerful a rescissions package is. But we got, you know, we're going to have a $2 trillion deficit. We got real packages. We hear that. We hear that OMB's got them. What do we need to do, you think, to get the rescissions back on track, to get the pocket rescissions or even what I want to do is just impound the fricking money and let's go to the Supreme Court on the Impoundment Control act, which I think is totally unconstitutional. Wade Miller, your thoughts?
Political Commentator
Well, there's a lot of different ways to come at this, and the Trump administration may have some plans. I don't know fully what President Trump himself wants to do on this. And there could be a lot of different factors. It took the Senate about 25 days to get the rescissions bill out of the committee. So it's not clear that there's a lot of time on the calendar right now to do another rescissions package. There is time on the calendar to do another pocket rescission. And there's plenty of money out there. There's plenty of woke money in nih. There's plenty of woke and weaponized money at hhs, things that will have literally no impact on the critical services that those two and programs that those two run. It's not going to impact cancer research. It's not going to impact cardiovascular research. But it's not clear like Katie Britt and some other senators already pushed back on some of these cuts and using the swamp arguments of, you know, that it's going to cut cancer research. Does anyone really think that Donald Trump is not going to fund cancer research? They're just absurd. So we have some obstructionist viewpoints from the United States Senate that are ongoing and they're pushing back on this. And so if that's the case, and look, President Trump has had the most successful first six months, but he can't be everywhere at once. He can't do the homework for everyone. He's relying on input and feedback on what needs to be done. And if he's not getting good feedback from various agency heads on cuts, if he's not getting good feedback or being misled by senators, it puts him in a bind and it's difficult for him to know what the right thing to do is. So I would just encourage the Trump administration and senators to buckle down, identify cuts. And look, if we, if we've run out of options that are palatable for various political reasons, we've got another reconciliation bill. But if that's the case, if that's the direction they want to go, they really need to make that number high. We need to compensate for a lack of pocket rescissions and rescissions and either do impoundment, which I'm on board with you we should just start impounding, pick those legal fights or do a really big reconciliation package and, you know, rustle up another 100 billion, 200 billion, 300 billion in cuts to offset not doing pocket rescissions. Those are all possibilities. But we need leadership from John Thune, we need leadership from Speaker Johnson, if that's the route that we're going to go.
Steve Bannon
I don't want to name names yet because we have not done our homework here at at the worm yet. But I committed to you, I'm going to do it tonight and get back to you and the guys at CRA and some there's some people in the administration, some of the departments, some of the cabinets are, you know, after we went through this thing and said, okay, it's over, we can kind of go back to ways and the and the permanent staffs there, as they always do, are kind of having a little bit of capture. Right. I think there's a particular problem maybe, and we're the huge make America healthy again. We got to do that. It's a top priority for President Trump obviously has Bobby Kennedy's back, but there may be a disconnect about how we get there, particularly that we got to be very focused on on cutting spending. Is there an issue right now, you think, with hhs, that we're going to have to work out over the next couple of weeks?
Political Commentator
Wade I'm not so sure that it's the agency head in that case. In fact, RFK Jr. Has specified cuts that he'd like to see, and that's an example of leadership that we need more of. But he himself even said in a interview not so long ago, maybe back in May, that none of the agency heads want cuts to their own programs. So everyone wants woke and weaponized cuts, but no one wants cuts to their own programs. And I think the success of this administration has been that President Trump had four years to diagnose the problem. He had four years to work with advisors. He's executed most of that. A lot of it is ongoing at this point. What he needs are agency heads to go in there and now produce more options for him to execute on. And that's hard to do because you have a lot of bureaucrats in the deep state that will, you know, mislead you or give you misleading data or try to convince you that there's no problems here. And this is a real problem. It's not an easy solution. Even with the best of intentions. You go into these agencies, you need to understand that that's what's happening. You need to understand that your bureaucrats, not all of them, but some of them, are going to pull wool over your eyes because ultimately they are all invested in protecting every single cent that they are being sent and they don't want any of it cut. And so you have to understand that and look through, read between the lines and figure out, I mean, we've had some of these agency heads are, have been helping and working alongside their own bureaucracy to protect all of their funding. And you're telling we're 37 trillion in debt. We should be seeing every single agency head saying, look, these are important, but they're not more important than the country going insolvent. Here's a list of things we would recommend. They should proactively be going to the President and saying we have identified these critical functions that need to be cut or non critical functions that don't need to be, or they're either woke or wasteful, or they're just not critical or they're duplicative. Where are those lists? Some of these agency heads have been doing this. Linda McMahon knows her mission is to destroy the Department of Education and she fully admits that because it's not needed and no parents need it in place. We need more Linda McMahons and fewer people who are trying to hoard every single cent that the deep state bureaucracy that they oversee wants to spend.
Steve Bannon
Wade, where can people get you over at CRA and your social media and all of it? Because these fights, I got to tell you, if they do take the recess, when they come back in Labor Day, this is going to be, this will be a firestorm that will consume everything up until midnight on the 30th of September. And folks, I've told you it can be some bad news in there because I think they're working on a big omnibus right now and they're trying to give a head fake. Oh, we're just, you know, minibus or they're working on a big ass omnibus. We're going to get our arms around. So Wade, where do people get you, sir?
Naomi Wolf
Yeah.
Political Commentator
Wade Miller underscore USMC on X. And you're absolutely right. If the Senate goes on recess, they should at least do the polite thing and go on a formal recess so that President Trump can fully recess, appoint all of his backlog nominees.
Steve Bannon
You agree with that? I mean, Mike Lee gave the alternative of them staying and cutting out that crap with the Democrats and getting on with it. But do you agree with me, Wade? That's a pretty low probability they're going to stick around.
Political Commentator
I think that's a low probability. If they do, it'll be some sort of watered down agreement. Mike Lee's right, 100% right. I just don't have trust that John Thune will use the leverage to do that effectively. If they would come in and say, look, we're going to Stick around. Unless we get all 80 nominees and really use leverage, then maybe that's worth it. But my guess is he would probably try to do something for like, 20. If that's the case, just formally recess, go back and campaign and just let the pressure valve release itself by allowing Trump to get his team in place. It's such a simple and elegant solution, and it's bizarre that they won't do it because recess appointments are the historical norm. The only president in recent history that has not had dozens, if not hundreds of them is Trump. Democrats won't allow it. So why are, why is John Thune and why are other Senate Republicans just not looking at what the Democrats are doing and saying, we have an elegant solution? Recess appointments. It's simple.
Steve Bannon
And we're working on it nonstop. Wade, thank you so much. Appreciate you and all the folks over at cra. And the CRA is other campus over in the Executive Office Building, which we refer to as omb. Your other campus.
Political Commentator
Not officially. They're not. They're not a part of cra, but they're former alumni. Alumni.
Steve Bannon
Thank you, sir. Appreciate you. Don't want to get you in trouble. Naomi, I've got about a minute here on this side. I'm gonna hold you so. And I want to get you back on to talk about hhs. I know you got great expertise over the last couple years in that. Also this digital healthcare network which the Warren posse's head's blown up. But I got you here today because you wrote this amazing thing essay, a really analytical piece on substack. And folks, I know this because I spent a lot of time with this New York situation up there working on it. I'll be up again next week. There's a lot of confusion about what's going on. I got a minute on this side. Just give the headline because they put out a poll the other day because they want one of the guys to drop out. They want Adams to drop out or, or Cuomo to drop out. But they put a poll out in the, in the New York Post that showed that, hey, it doesn't matter that he's over 50% and Mandami. And if it doesn't matter who drops out, he's going to win a majority. You got a minute here on this side. Do you believe that, ma'?
Naomi Wolf
Am, I don't. Or I don't think we can know from that poll. The poll is really being misreported. People just aren't looking at the poll. It's linked in my substack essay and you can look at it online. But the bottom line is it's being reported as if it's a real independent poll. It isn't. It's a poll paid for by Mom Donnie's funders and run by an advisor to his campaign. It's not an independent polling company. It's only 1400 people. And all the legacy media in New York that I've looked at is repeating that. It shows that Mamdani is unstoppable. That he's got over 50% of the vote is the implication. That's not what it says at all. If you look at pages 12, 14, 15 and 17 16, it shows that he's got 50% approval but 32% disapproval. And the 32% would not vote for Mamdani. Head to head with Cuomo, it's 52 to 40, which is overcomeable. But among registered voters it's 46 to 43. Mamdani versus Cuomo, which is like within the margin of error. So it's really, if they're doing it in a state statistically correct way, a, it's a nonsense poll, but B, even that poll says it's a.
Steve Bannon
Hang, hang on, hang on, hang on one second. We're going to hold you through the break. The situation in New York, the fog of war, and this is a big one. The imperial capital will cede the financial capital of the world to a bunch of radical Marxists and jihadists. Next in the war room.

Patriot Mobile, the best phone service company in the world. It drafts off of all the other service providers. They've got tons of different alternatives. What you should do right now is go 972patriot. Just call 972patriot and talk to one of the United States citizens that are manning their call centers. Talk to them about all the options.

And I tell you, if it was not for their pack that really gets quite engaged, we wouldn't have any victories down there for MAGA in Texas. And of course, this redistricting is everything. So make sure you go give them a shout out to 972 Patriot. So, Naomi, you've been one of the few rays of sunshine in this entire mess. You say that's a whole new generation of Republicans coming up. Most people say, hey, Mandami is, he's, he's working people's party. He's the Democratic Socialist Party. He's got ground game. He's got 10,000 people out every day canvassing. This is a machine that's going to roll through the traditional Democrats like Cuomo and going to crush independents like Adams and make a fool of the rump of the Republican Party there. And Curtis Sliwa, your thoughts, ma'? Am?
Naomi Wolf
Well, he is a formidable candidate, but people don't realize that he's among the most privileged of New Yorkers. His mother's Mira Nair, the glamorous filmmaker, and he just got married in the gated estate of his family in Uganda, even though in the New York City media he poses in a hoodie on the subway. So he's not a man of the people. There's definitely globalist money behind him, and it's a very slick operation. I don't mean to diminish that at all, all, but they're really trying smoke and mirrors again. The numbers I just read to you in that poll don't show that he has a lock on this mayoral race at all. They show a statistical dead heat with Cuomo. And people are really misreading the poll. And if Cuomo joins forces with some of, I don't like Cuomo, but if his opponents join forces, they do have a statistical majority among registered voters. So that's number one. It's kind of shocking that the editors of Newsweek who ran these stories, the editors of Politico, didn't click through the poll. It's right there, linked in my substack article. It's easy to find, you know, again, a poll paid for by his Mamdani supporters and run by his campaign advisor. It's not a pollster and hand picking likely Mamdani voters. But moving on to the bigger picture, New York mayor doesn't sort of run the city alone. There's city councils and there's borough city councils. And what I'm seeing, you know, only in the borough in which I live part time, which is Brooklyn, but it's pretty exciting is that there's been a Republican club that opened up in deepest blue Brooklyn run by a former Democrat you know, founded by the Donald J. Trump Republican Club. I'm not kidding, I'm speaking there next month. And that they're running. They found these really extraordinary, idealistic young candidates, kind of the anti Mamdanis. Both of them that I've interviewed are in every way opposite to Mamdani. Both of them former Democrats, I believe. I know Athena Clark is a former Democrat and she walked away from the Democratic Party and committed to running. She was a New York City teacher with a focus on special ed. She was mandated to take the vaccine. And this is a huge kind of wedge issue. There are 147,000 first responders, Steve, in New York. They were mandated to take this vaccine. They know they've been had by now. They know people are getting sick. They're furious. And the ones who said no to this day have not been reinstated into their jobs. That's our firefighters, our police, our EMTs and our public school teachers. And this is a real voting bloc. And so this issue led this woman to walk away from the Democratic Party. A young mom, you know, very persuasive, very inspiring. And also Louis Caro, I interviewed him kind of again, the anti mom, Tawny, a, you know, very telegenic young IT guy in a bank, right, who grew up in a Brooklyn neighborhood, a working class neighborhood, went to Columbia, but he could not run on what he cares about as a Democrat. These are lifelong Democrats who are the next generation and they just can't do it. So they've re registered as Republicans. And again, his platform is a really interesting kind of give the streets back to the people kind of platform safety, law and order, getting rid of NGOs that just want to perpetuate poverty and homelessness and drug addiction to training Brooklyn low lower income and working class young adults in it, robotics, AI, you know, the skills of the future and also high paying jobs like electricians, construction, plumbing. And it's really tapping this extraordinary groundswell, Steve, because Caro says that the most irate people he hears from are Latino Brooklynites who did everything right, who spent years and thousands of dollars getting their green cards, getting their legal citizenship. And now they're looking at the Democrats ushering In, you know, 15 million people who are breaking the law and who are taking the entry level jobs at a serfdom level that used to be available to black and brown New Yorkers in these working class neighborhoods. And so it's, it's just an extraordinary situation in which the DNC has mistreated African American, Caribbean American and Hispanic American Brooklynites. So badly that people from those own communities are like, I can't run as a Democrat. I can't. You know, the Democrats mandated us. The Democrats threw away the lives and livelihoods of teachers, firefighters, police officers, EMTs. You know, I have to re register as a Republican. It's a whole new face of the Republican party. And I hope the Republican party realizes what a gift this is and what an incredible opportunity it is. These talented young people are throwing their hats into the ring.
Steve Bannon
Before I go the. And I want to spend more time with you on this in the, in the weeks ahead because it's so vital to this, the particularly in Chicago and L. A. Does the mainstream media and the massive donor class in New York City and the leaders of the financial capital of the world, do they really have any idea how radical Mamdani and the rest of the people around him are? Do you think they have an inkling? Because you understand radical politics. You've been a political operative and consultant.
Wade Miller
Do you think they really.
Steve Bannon
Because I read the coverage, it's like the polls starting blowing out. People I'm stunned at the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, even the New York Post. I don't think they get the depth of how radical this guy is. And the Working People's Party and the Democrat Socialists of America, I'm not sure they actually. And how organized and what a ground game and how they've kind of. They've got a chokehold on things. Do you think the mainstream media gets it?
Naomi Wolf
Oh, Steve, my answer is so sad. They, they may, but they don't care. I mean, Mamdani is a genuine socialist. He wants to create government run grocery stores which worked so well in the Soviet Union. You know, he wants to freeze rents, he wants to make transportation free. These are very seductive policies for people who don't know what communism is like and don't realize that the taxpayer always pays anyway, right? But even people who should know better, like the legacy media, they don't care because the. How can I put it? This is so awful. The people I walked away from the elite circles of New York City love what he represents so much personally. He's one of us, right? He's a Bowdoin guy. His mom's a star. You know, an international jet setter. He's so telegenic. He's brown, right? I mean, it's this DNC thing of like throwing a telegenic brown person at the camera and calling that social justice. It's the AOC strategy. It's the, you know, Kamala Harris strategy. And so the elites are like, I can get rid of my white privilege by just voting for this guy who will freeze my rent. Awesome. And give me a free subway ticket. And he's just so kind of, you know, how can I put it? He gives that frisson of. And also he's running against awful people. Right? He's. We didn't like Cuomo. Cuomo locked us down. Cuomo had all these sexual misbehavior accusations. Cuomo put the COVID infected people in the old folks homes. I mean, he's a flawed, damaged candidate. Mayor Adams, I kind of like a lot of things he did, but he's also seen as a flawed candidate. He's not telegenic, he's not persuasive. None of Mamdani's opponents would have. That would be that person you'd want to be seated next to at a gala. And Mamdani is so the elites of the city are like, oh, what a relief. It doesn't matter that he's going to destroy our budgets. He's one of us.
Steve Bannon
That's. That's France in 1792. You watch. Hey, she nailed it right there. Naomi, your social media, where do people get. You get your background. You've said a brutal truth that is part of the big reality of this thing. And you're absolutely correct. And I would just refer him back to France. Pre terror, revolutionary France, ma'. Am.
Wade Miller
Where do we.
Steve Bannon
Where do we go to get your. Where do we aristocracy 100% same attitude. Where do people go to get your content, ma'. Am.
Naomi Wolf
Thank you. Well, come to Substack and read my outspoken essay about this or go over to Daily Clout. But even more important, whether you're in New York or not, go to 2025 clarkcitycouncil.com to see this candidate because we need to do the right thing for our first responders. And she's the first candidate that's really going to support the first responders.
Steve Bannon
Fabulous. Fantastic. Naomi Wolf. Thank you, ma'. Am.
Naomi Wolf
Thank you.
Steve Bannon
Lots of great insights there. This thing in New York City, folks, I'm telling you. And once it goes, it ain't coming back in a. And it's not going to come back for a generation, at least. Let me repeat that. When you lose it to these folks, it ain't coming because they're not the type of people that turn over power. Okay, Tom. Dan joins us from Anchorage. Tom, we've already been to the Saipan and Guam and the Northern Marianas Islands that we fought so hard for. You're up in Alaska. So we're dealing with the Pacific, the Western Pacific, but at the same time, you're on the other side dealing with the Arctic. Tell us about the Arctic conference. You've been in Greenland for us. You've been everywhere. Why are you in Anchorage at this Arctic conference, sir?
Tom Dan
Yeah. Hey, Steven. Great to be with the posse real quick. Yeah. We're in another strategic corner of the United States. So we talk about, like, the sun never setting, really, on the United States. This is, remember the battle of Attu. This is World War II, one of the only pieces of US land that was actually ever captured by enemy forces. The Japanese and the army beat them back to the very most western point in the United States, out on the Aleutian Islands, just where that earthquake happened the other day in Kamchatka. So, like, everything ties in, into what we're talking about, from Saipan to Attu, across to Greenland and down to Panama. You know, this is this hemispheric concept that we're talking about and that President Trump is driving home in terms of the safety and security of the American people. So this Arctic encounter is, think about it as the global convening for the United States of Arctic affairs. Happens once a year. A lot of folks from all over, I think probably 10, 15ambassadors here, the congressional delegations from the state come and speak. A lot of people talk on policy. But this is really, this is really a sea change in terms of President Trump coming aboard here now. And it's like, as the T shirt shops say here in Anchorage, you look at the dogs once, they say, hey, if you're not the lead dog, the view never changes. Well, that's, that's the case in the Ark. We have a new lead dog. That's President Trump. His leadership is making this whole Arctic safer and more secure for not just Americans, but the rest of the world.
Steve Bannon
Yeah, yeah, yeah. But, Tom, the reason it was important for you to go and we want you to report for there, and we would love for you every day to wraps up.
Wade Miller
Is that the new great game, the.
Steve Bannon
Great power struggle of the 21st century? The focal point initially is going to be on the Arctic, and that is Russia, the Chinese Communist Party in the United States of America. And President Trump has said, hey, because in hemispheric defense, folks, this is what I want to tell you all the way out to Guam and Saipan, that is the United States of America. We're not trying to be cops or somebody else.
Wade Miller
That's our territory.
Steve Bannon
Just like it is up in the Arctic. Your thoughts, sir, about the great game that's before us? Because I got to tell you, the Chinese Communist Party, they're looking at northern Canada, and they say we're going to take a bite out of that. Like Russia took a bite out of Ukraine, sir.
Tom Dan
Steve, I'll tell you what, the delegation that got here first to the conference, well, truth be told, they didn't come to the conference, but it was the Chinese. It's their icebreaker that cruised right by the Aleutians on Sunday. We got a C130 out to check it out. But look, that's a Chinese icebreaker coming into the US Exclusive economic zone. And, you know, we didn't have an icebreaker that we could send out or a group to go out and escort it and say hello. But I want to just say that's the importance of what the leadership of President Trump and especially Secretary Noem is doing here at DHS and Coast Guard. We're getting the assets out to have the presence to be there to discourage these guys from even these ideas cross their mind. And it all links back together. You know, Secretary Noem was down in Panama a few weeks ago. She reviewed the cutter Escanaba. Well, the Escanaba is a successor for one of the great ships that was involved in the Greenland patrol back in World War II. And this is a vessel that rescued, as we talked about back in February when we were at the main base there in Greenland. This is. This is a vessel that rescued survivors off of the Dorchester, only to one. Only to three months later be torpedoed herself. 102 lives lost, all hands lost. But here's. Here's a. Here's a beautiful fact, and I appreciate this. I know the Texans, my fellow Texans are aboard. And, you know, this is where it all comes together with people rising to the moment, ordinary Americans doing things away from their homes, but in very important parts of the United States. So the father of basically US rescue swimmers under the Coast Guard, that started in Greenland, that started on the Escanaba, that was a fellow from Charleston, South Carolina, my brother's hometown. And we know about Paul going out there and going to fix the Senate. But this is a fellow who developed that rescue swimming, helping save sailors and seamen off of the Dorchester in Greenland. Now that vessel's down in Panama protecting those edges. And as we all saw, those skills got put to work in Texas. I mean, nobody in Texas is prouder of the men and women of the United States Coast Guard. I think the recruiting is going to be off the charts. I mean, look, hey, look, I was a finance guy in New York City at that age. If I saw that going on, I mean, you'd have to think hard, long about what your life's about and how you really help your country, right?
Steve Bannon
The Coast Guard goes. The Coast Guard goes out when everybody else is coming in. Tom, social media so people can follow you. We're going to have you on tomorrow to get an update. A lot of the policy stuff going on. The great game of the 21st century is in the Arctic, in the United States is going to be a major player, as President Trump's already said. Where do people get you overnight, sir?
Tom Dan
Yeah, sure. Tom Dan's at Tomdan's cfa. Cfa, Chartered finance analyst. And hey, one thing I want to mention we have our good friend Mike Walsh is here with his wife Julia, who's another U.S. arctic expert. We got to get Mike through. We have to. He's ready to go to work at the important part of the unit. So we got to get these people. So everybody, confirmations, call your centers, tell them, put Mike through. You got UNGA coming in a couple short weeks here and we need our team on the field.
Steve Bannon
Got to have them there. Thank you, brother. We're working on these recess appointments right now. Tom Dan's from Anchorage, Alaska. We'll check in with him tomorrow. Thank you, brother. Appreciate you. So, Joe Allen, we're just going to tease it because you're going to start the show tomorrow. It's too important to kind of cram in here. Massive news on artificial general intelligence. And we're going to leave you as a cliffhanger tomorrow with an incredible cold open. We're going to open the show with Joe Allen. Joe, you down for that? Sir, yes, sir. Steve, you know, politics. Politics is a complicated kaleidoscope of agendas, and this is one that is going to rock the world going forward. And I think people are going to need to wake up. It's going to rock the world. No, we got to wake up, folks. I'm telling you, this artificial intelligence. Joe Allen's been ahead of this as a prophet, but, man, we're about to enter quite uncharted waters. And we've gotten a heads up from the. You heard Joe talk about the Frontier Labs. Well, the Frontier Labs are giving you a big warning about what's to come. Joe Allen, thank you so much. You can go to Joe's social media. We'll put it up. I'll be up on getter tonight, 10:00am Eastern Daylight Time tomorrow. It's going to be packed. Already going to tell you Saturday show is packed. This is a news cycle like I've never seen before, folks. But. And you're making a huge difference massively in so many issues. You're human agency. Go out with the right stuff. Not a better day to do it. We'll see you back here at 10:00am Eastern Daylight Time tomorrow when you will be in the War Room.
