It's just not good enough. It's not good enough. We have to if we're going to take down the deep state. This is both narrative war. It's political war. It's going to be legal. There's this huge piece in the Atlantic today. You see the narrative framing of President Trump in the military and what he's doing on to bring law and order to the cities and to put down this antifa insurrection, which it is, and to basically back up the ICE agents to mass deportations. Everything the Democrats are doing right now from fighting the census, any change of the census and redistricting, that's all because of the gun decked 2020 census that Illinois had totally worked out. You wouldn't count any illegal aliens. The algorithms are going to be right and Wilbur Ross and the people in the Commerce Department fold it because they're Wall street guys. You see it in the shutdown of the federal government. It's about illegal alien paying for illegal aliens, health care and you can't afford it. We're broke. The French government's about to fall again. They can't put the government again. Why? Debt and deficit, same issue. We got debt and deficits. So it's coming here. What is this whole thing about the insurrection in Portland and Chicago. It's ICE agents trying to do what? Guess what? Mass deportations of illegal aliens. Why? Look at Mandami in New York City. Because if they don't have illegal aliens, they don't have any political party. They don't have. The people are not going to vote for this. So in democracy, we win. They're trying to rig it so it's not democracy. And as you try to bring justice here and their apparatus and their hold on the apparatus is so strong, I keep saying over and over again, we have a very tenuous grasp of the Justice Department, the FBI, very tenuous just by our fingernails. And when President Trump puts forward people in that second and third layer, which you need to kind of get things done or, you know, get Halligan over there and get her over there early, it's fodder because Stew in the Senate do not want to changes. They see Trump as a passing summer storm. We got Dr. Peter Navarro. Do you think they like the way President Trump's rewiring global commerce. You think the Chamber of Commerce likes that? You think Wall street likes that? You think the corporatists like it? No, they hate it. They want the system here that guts the country and guts the American people. And they make more money, they make more money under their system than our system. They see Navarro as a problem. And Navarro's there for one reason. Because Donald John Trump is president of these United States and this is going to tap it along. And today you saw why we should have gone on a recess, a full recess, and President Trump had recess appointments. John Thune doesn't trust him. They can put all the happy talk on it. We're going to go nuclear options. Screw your nuclear options. Go on recess and let Trump get everybody in there immediately. Dr. Navarro, this is a prime example, and let me be blunt. If you're going to take down the deep state, you got to play at their level. And they play smash mouth. Today's an example. It ain't good enough, okay? You and I went to prison. We didn't whine, we didn't cry. Hey, it is what it is. You're going to go, there's a process. You got to work through that process because they're out to destroy you. You and I got that. No tears in the war room. But today, this ain't good enough because we had the opportunity to have a historic photograph on building the narrative, what you have to do as you know as kind of the predicate for the narrative. And they won today. And somebody said, oh, is it administrative? No, no, no, no, no, no, it's not administrative. You got the bailiffs and the court and the. And the U.S. marshals, they're all working together with these guys. They knew exactly what's going to happen. And here's why I know it. Peter, as you remember before you showed up, it's highly choreographed down to kind of the second what's going to happen. And somebody should have realized in this and saying, hey, we got to change this summons to an arrest and we have to do it now. And to get that. Peter Navarro, your thoughts? This just ain't good enough, brother. It's just not. Steve. The juxtaposition of my situation misdemeanor for an alleged crime that wasn't leg irons arrests through Reagan airport. We learned yesterday from Senator Chuck Grassley's big reveals that they surveilled me. They didn't regard me as armed or dangerous. They just did it as a circus arrest. They had a dozen agents involved in that, I got the mug shot, I got the handcuffs, I got the leg irons. I got the jail cell. Made me sit there for a couple hours. And then the judge and I go out and face the microphones and the music. I didn't have anybody escorting me out the side door. And then you got Comey, okay? It's like felony up to 10 years in prison. Involved in arguably the worst political conspiracy in America's lifetime. That stretched all the way from 2016, when he was at the helm, through 2024, multiple times to overthrow the president when he was in office or to stop him from getting elected in 2016, 2020, and 2024. And, Steve, the central lesson that I have, I gave it at the Republican National Convention in my speech the day I got out of place, is if we don't hold them accountable, they will do it again. I went to prison so you won't have to. It's not just a book. It's a wake up call. And yesterday, Steve, was one of the most chilling days I've had in recent memory, because I saw firsthand when I was looking at the senators sitting on the Democratic side that they will do it again. There's nothing but spin machines and liars. Dick Durbin gets up there and has the gall to say that it's us weaponizing, weaponizing the justice system. When they put you and me in prison. They try to put Donald Trump in prison. And then Schiff's there making a mockery of things when that guy lied to Congress and should have served prison time already. Instead, he's rewarded. Little chipmunk face doing his life. Bullshit. I'm tired of this, Steve. And here's the thing, Steve. The Justice Department and FBI has the opportunity to do this now. We've already lost eight months. We cannot lose another day on this. And the cases have to be made. Comey's the tip of the iceberg here, brother. The tip that's Comey. Clapper appetizer struck shift. Rosenstein. It's all some of these judges here that have to be investigated. Chris. Chris, by the way, it's raining. Peter, I want you to go inside. I'm going to make the pitch for the book and talk about the New York Times. You're sitting warm in a studio, and I'm. I'm like, I'm taking the weather here for you, brother. How good am I? Look at this. Like these over here got umbrellas, man. I'm just. This is. This is what they taught me in prison, brother. We fight it Out. You're like, Marie, I went to prison. So you don't have to. And by the way, go ahead. Number 11, you go inside. I don't want you wet. You got. You got meetings with the president all day. You get inside and get dry. I'll make the pitch. I love you, brother. Prison. So you want to have. The posse's got. The posse's got to buy this book to put it on the best seller list this week. It should have been on the New York Times selling this. And yet again, they canceled us. I'm against. We saw. Yeah. No, because they don't want. Okay, you jump inside and get dry. Can't have you. I can't have you wet. In the Oval Office advising the President of the United States. President Trump deserves to have a dry manufacturing and trade czar. Peter Navarro. What a good man. What a good man. Incredible. Remember, his fiance got shackled also. For a misdemeanor. For a misdemeanor. The reason I was kind of a quasi celebrity at Danbury wasn't because my associate of Trump had never heard of a misdemeanor going to a federal prison. They were like, in shock. I had to explain that every time. It's just incomprehensible. Peter Navarro's book should be on Bookscan. So we're just talking official numbers. They scan every book that's sold on bookscan. The book should be number 11 on the new York Times bestseller list. Just what the numbers say compared to everything else. It's not. Why is that they're not going to put pro Trump books from populist nationalists up because they don't want the momentum that builds afterwards. So go get it right now. Buy one for a friend. Share it. There's two books out that I think you got to get. You got to get the Eric Trump book and you've got to get Navarros. Two different aspects of this. Peter Navarro's. I went to prison so you don't have to. And he ain't kidding. You saw it today. The system is totally rigged. The deep state and the administrative state. Remember, the administrative state kind of runs. Runs the apparatus. The administrative party of the apparatus, the whole federal government. The deep state is that convergence of intelligence, defense, national security, law enforcement that essentially runs the country at the beck and call of the financial and corporatist community. They're all globalists. They hate us. They hate President Trump. They think President Trump's a passing storm. Today's exhibit one. Today's exhibit one. Because this was going to be historic and they knew it was going to be historic. They knew it was going to be historic. And look, I realize people under the gun, this is why we should have forced the recess appointments. I understand. People are under the gun. They're overworked. They're definitely overworked. You've only got a handful of people in these massive institutions. The Justice Department is, I don't know, 25, 30,000, maybe more. We have a very tenuous grip of just a handful of people. But that being said, it's got to match up. It's just not good enough. It's not. You're not going to take down the deep state going along these lines. We have to get tougher. We have to get smarter. We have to get more people in. And I hope the president of the United States starts banging some heads so he can get his team in. We don't have we're burning daylight. And they understand that every day to delay is to deny. Every day they slow down, the Trump revolution is a victory for them. Want to thank Birch. Goal. We got another announcement. I can get this thing sorted about what's going to happen with Marine Corps 250, a very special event from 5pm Eastern Daylight Time to 8pm Eastern Daylight Time.

Nate, as you know, was running for last endorsement. Charlie Kirk made Nate's runner for the United States Senate against a couple McConnell clones. Nate, one of the reasons that we're under pressure on taking down the Deep State is that we have a very tenuous hold grasp of the Justice Department. And one of the reasons is the Senate is just moving very slowly now. They got like a nuclear option. We had the opportunity in August to actually go on recess and have Trump have recess appointments. John Thune and that crowd over there refused to do it. But talk to me about your opponent, your opponents in the middle is everything's related to illegal aliens. The census fight, we've got the redistricting fight, we've got the calling for the Insurrection act of 1807 because of the mass deportations, the shutdown, the Schumer shutdown. Everything is tied right now and connected back to the Democratic Party on the illegal alien invasion that went on under Biden's watch. Yet your opponents refuse to use that term. What do they call it, sir? I mean, Steve, what is so crazy is that I'm running against a guy In Kentucky, a McConnell White, a guy named Andy Barr, and we call him Amnesty Andy because he's for amnesty across the board. And there's an explosive clip that went viral last night on X talking about undocumented workers. And this is a guy, Steve, who was advocating to get illegals continually in our system and refusing to deport them, which is absolutely crazy. I mean, Steve, we know the fundamental crux and the central focus of the MAGA movement is to deport all the illegals. No exceptions, no carve outs, no special rules, no exemptions. And Steve, this is a guy who's owned by big business on Wall Street. This is a guy who's made his career carrying the water of the wealthy and the deep state folks in Washington. And he's going to do everything he can to continue to fall back on that McConnell network that's enriched him for the last 16 years. And he's going to do it by supporting illegal immigration continually and refusing to deport the people that came and invaded our country under Joe Biden. How do people in, how do people in Kentucky think about this man? Because Kentucky is one of the backbones of the country. How did the citizens there, when they hear guys for amnesty and calling them undocumented and playing into the left's hands, understanding the whole fight we have President Trump staked his, basically his presidency on right now. Atlantic magazine has this huge article about how there's going to be this huge rift between the military and the commander in chief, how the folks in the commonwealth, how's this setting with them? Well, Steve, I think they're absolutely disgusted. I mean, Steve, we're full as a country. Kentuckians know this. We're absolutely full and we've got to send every one of these illegals packing. And Steve, Charlie and I used to talk about this all the time. This is not just about the American border. This is about Western civilization. Western civilization is on the line with who we elect, especially in this Senate race. The Senate race is so important. That's why I was Charlie's last endorsement. That's why he came to Kentucky to launch our campaign. He knew the stakes and what it was to defeat the McConnell machine once and for all. And Andy Barr is the McConnell 2.0 that is running here in Kentucky. And Steve, you remember he called me a nativist. He said I was a nativist for my position. And if we recall, this is the same line that Hillary Clinton used with Basket of Deplorables. This is the same kind of stuff that Democrats say. So Kentuckians, they've absolutely had enough. Kentuckians know we're full. They know the stakes. They know our civilization is on the line. This isn't just about politics. This isn't just about an election. This is about Western civilization. And we've got to get so tough, Steve, we are so close again to losing our country when we see people like Andy Barr that are getting close to the realm of power in Washington, D.C. through an election. That's why he must be defeated at all costs. And I think Kentuckians know this. They've had enough of Mitch. Steve, we've had him for over 40 years and he has stabbed the President in the back over and over again. And guess what? His mentee, Andy Barr did the exact same thing. Blaming President Trump for January 6, calling me a nativist, continuing to say that these illegals can stay, they don't need to be deported, and calling them undocumented. I mean, Andy Barr, call them what they are, which is illegal. They're illegal. They're taking away wages from American citizens, they're taking away housing opportunities. They're flooding our schools, they're flooding our hospitals. And all these people have got to go back. I can't wait to get till we get some debates lined up. Nate, where do people on social media go to find you? But more important, as importantly, where they go to your campaign site to find out more about this race. Well, Steve, as you know, we are up against the McConnell machine in the form of Andy Barr and Daniel Cameron, the two candidates that are in this race. We need all the help from the grassroots. We need all the patriots in Kentucky and around the country to support our campaign. Go to natemorris.com, chip in, be part of our movement, donate to this campaign and get involved here in the grassroots as well in Kentucky. Follow us on X and let's engage him. Let's put the McConnell machine in the grave once and for all with this election and get rid of Amnesty Andy and send him packing and send him back to the country club where he belongs. Nate, you're a patriot and a hero. You keep fighting there. We're going to follow this one closely because the establishment, the McConnell establishment's got their candidate in the grassroots. Populist nationalists got theirs. Nate Morris, you're a hero. Keep fighting. Thank you, sir. Thing is so totally rigged. This is why. This is why. And they're going to try to tear. They're going to try to tear Nate Morris apart. You watch Charlie Kirk's last endorsement. Remember we went live that day when Charlie was out in Kentucky to the kickoff event for Nate. Is Jack Basil but called in yet? Do I poso. We're going to get posted a minute. So Jack is going to be. We got him. So Jack, you're going to be at the. Thanks for calling in. I know you're heading towards the White House. You're going to be at the antifa roundtable today. Can you tell us about that, sir? Well, Steve, thanks again for having me on. And yes, honored to be included by the White House in this roundtable on domestic terrorism from the left here in the United States. Obviously, in the wake of Charlie Kirk's murder, in the wake of the attacks on ICE that we've seen on specific agents, a bounty that was placed on an ICE officer up in Chicago, a routine attacks on the ground, obvious open rebellion from mayors of two major American cities. Steve, these networks are real. These networks are on the ground and they need to respond to. And the President of the United States, I believe, is the man to do it. Jack, you have a roundtable. I think it's in the, in the big. It's going to be one of the big rooms up in the, on the main floor. So it's going to be real America's voice going to cover it live. Right? And we're going to be back here at 5 to break it all down and hopefully have posto up. Jack, because of a quote unquote administrative error, but one that was driven by the deep state, Comey was able to slip in and out today without having to address the media. The cameras are getting the historic shot of him being indicted, by the way, the trial said for the 5th of no, 5th of January and I'm sure they're going to try to move that 5th of January 26. Jack, walk me through Comey today, the deep state. How tough. I want people to understand this is not going to be a cakewalk just because President Trump is president United States. We have the Attorney General, the director of FBI. We have a very tenuous grasp on all this. This is why it took the Antifa declaration as being a terrorist organization was supposed to be done. Jack Posoba because you know better than anybody in June of 2020 when Antifa and BLM were burning down the country, sir. Well, Steve, that's exactly right. And I'll never forget when General Milley went out there and apologized to BLM and Antifa for clearing them out of historic Lafayette Square park while they were attempting to burn down St. John's Church just across the square there, right across from Blair House, north of the White House. You had President Trump and was sent down to the bunker during all of this and you had the media laughing about it. You had the media saying that it wasn't a big deal. The rise of this political violence, the rise of the seriousness of this now and the reason for that, Steve, is Washington D.C. gets their beat, their cub beat from the same places that Antifa do. The only difference is not the ideology, it is the expression of that ideology. These you're so many professors, a couple of these guys that just got let go or you know, some of them quit, some of them got let go in the Eastern District where the national security cases are usually held, the rocket docket over there because they were attempting to give sweetheart deals to and this is a story that we broke over at Human Events. Sweetheart deals to the Abbey Gate bomber suspect that we have caught and we brought back. Steve. They are fundamentally so radical and they're deep and burrowed into the system because starting with Obama one, right, you have to go all the way back to Obama 1. If you had the right kind of politics, you were placed on a leadership track, a career track in all of. I think we lost Jack Posobec. He's coming to the way in one direction. Your career would dag. Okay. Oh, hang on. There we go. Keep going. Jack, just lost you for a second how they reformed this so it goes all the way back 15 years to Obama 1. Jack, you see the situation we have. We're trying to take down the deep state. I want people to understand that Comey's a appetizer, particularly with these charge day there's a lot more coming. But I just want folks to understand the scale of what we're up against. We're going to win this fight, but we're only going to win this fight by digging in every day, enforcing the action, driving the action. If we're passive at all, it's not going to happen. They see Trump as a passing summer storm. They just want to tap it along. And there's people on the White House staff that believe that there's a lot there that are fighters, where there's some are just, hey, let's just get through this every day. That can't be it. We have to have, we have to win every day in order to do this. Jack Posobic, your thoughts? I think we lost Jack. Let's go ahead and try to redial him. Okay, so Jack, Jack Posobic's heading to the White House. We can go ahead and hang that up Denver, we can drop it. Thank you. Anytime. Thank you, guys. I've been directing, producing, starring. It's one of those days. We're doing this live and trying to get Persobic. The reason Jack is on the phone is that he's been invited. He's going to be in the roundtable. There's going to be a roundtable on antifa today at 3pm @ the White House, President Trump presiding and we're going to cover it live. And then afterwards we're going to have some of the participants in the 5 o' clock hour that are going to going to join us. So a lot going on today. Once again, a summons, not an arrest of James Comey today. And I understand I'm already getting, my phone's already blowing up for a number of people that are not thrilled about that and you shouldn't be thrilled about it. We have to take our game up. To be blunt, it's got to be, we got to be a game plus, because you're against virtually insurmountable odds and it's going to be tough. And if you want to ringside seat to this and you want to be one of the drivers of the action, the worm's the place to be because we're just not going to sit here and just settle for okay. Because if you do that, if you settle, you're not going to win. And they understand that every day they slow this down is a day closer to they think it's over the past that the storm passes and that storm would be President Trump. And so we got to hunker down on this and hunker down hard. There's nobody better at fixed bayonets than the war on Posse. So get ready. I think you've seen today the scale of what we have to do. I want to thank Birch Gold. Now look, why is gold through 4000 and have you missed the move? Because you know early on when we started doing this, gold was like 1100 bucks.

You think The Patriots in 1775 didn't understand that they were going up a big hill? Yeah, they did. Okay. And so, so are you. That's why not every. This show's not made for everybody. What we ask of the audience, not made for everybody. That's okay. We're going to get this one. James Comey. Taj, you happy about this morning, sir? You doing good? You happy about what you saw this morning? Nope, not yet, Steve. No perp walk, no arrest, no mug shots, just a summons, whatever that means. This guy lied to the FISA court so they could spy on Donald Trump and his, when he, when he was the, you know, running for president in 2016. And, and then the whole Russia gate, all this stuff. We, we need Comey in handcuffs. We want to see him perp walk and we want to see a mug shot. Donald Trump has a mug shot out there. Why doesn't James Comey. Yes, and then a masterpiece in the back, out the back door. Yeah, no, it's incredible. As we say in the naval services, sir, completely gun decked. But that's okay. We got it. Exactly.

You served your country for decades as a gunman and now you've created one of the great small companies in this country that's growing leaps and bounds every day with fabulous product. Just amazing. And I live on it. So that's. And I'm a coffee junkie. So I thank you sir. Appreciate you Tajigo. Thank you sir. Appreciate you too. Another young. Another young man. Founder and Chairman CEO of Sacred Human Health. Folks, I've dealt with a lot of entrepreneurs my years in finance at Goldman Sachs, my own firm for decades. So I kind of specialize in entrepreneurial finance. This is one how I met Andrew Breitbart. Trevor Comstock is just the cut of his jib is amazing. You are so focused on only having products out there that 1000% pass all your quality controls. Walk us through, give us, talk to us about a product today and then where do people go? I want just people to go to your website and see the quality. You try one of these products once, you'll be all over Sacred Human Health in the future. Tell Trevor let's just get them to the site, buy a product and they'll never leave. Trevor Comstock, what do you got for us? Yeah, great to see you, Steve. So of course our beef liver is definitely our number one product. But I did want to mention our new Tylenol moisturizer continues to sell fast and it keeps selling out as well. We're now back in stock, all hands on deck. So we don't perceive that it'll sell out again. But again, every jar is handmade, which is part of the reason why it does continue to sell out. But I also wanted to mention too because a lot of people ask if it's attended intended for just women or also men. The product works great for both men and women. I use it myself every day on my face. I personally love it. And also it does, for those who don't know, contain a ton of ingredients, I'm sorry, vitamins like vitamin A, D, E as well as K that are essential for skin hydration. And then as I, as I mentioned before, we don't include any preservatives, alcohols, fragrances or anything artificial in the product. So we just give you the raw natural ingredients. And people have been leaving some amazing feedback if you want to check out some of our reviews online. I always encourage people to see what other customers have to say and a lot of the war room posse as well. But also I wanted to mention you can use code war room for 10% off on any of our products. And if you do subscribe, you're locked into the 10% discount for life until you cancel. So you can go to sacredhumanhealth.com or just type in sacredhuman to Google. You'll find us there.

What I love about it is you are absolutely have your program about what it has to be, the quality of the, of the ingredients, the way it's manufactured, all of it. And folks, I'm telling you, go the website, check it out. If you order one product and use it, you will be a customer on multiple products for decades to come. That's how good it is.

It's a tough show because you get a lot of complicated stuff we go through. It's not for everyone. We don't go for a mass audience. We go for people that can make a difference. We know where the leverage points are and we know how you have to apply pressure at the leverage points in the hinges of history. That's why you, this audience are driving history. And let's be blunt, let's have a part in this conversation. Today was not good enough. Okay. As long as we can agree with that internally, we're going to, we're going to set things right.

Date: October 8, 2025
Host: Stephen K. Bannon
Notable Guests: Dr. Peter Navarro, Nate Morris, Jack Posobiec
This episode of “The War Room” with Stephen K. Bannon dives headlong into the ongoing “war” against what Bannon terms the "deep state," focusing on the legal and political battles surrounding former President Trump, the fallout from the Department of Justice’s actions against Trump allies, and the right-wing populist movement’s confrontation with entrenched interests in both major parties. Central topics include the day’s events surrounding former FBI Director James Comey’s summons (rather than an arrest), the issue of “the administrative state,” mass deportation policy, and the critical importance of upcoming Senate races.

Opening & Setting the Table
The Administrative and Deep State
Senate, Immigration, and Political Stakes
Antifa and Domestic Terrorism Roundtable
Bannon’s tone is intense, combative, and heavily rallying—a call to arms for listeners. He employs war metaphors (“smash mouth,” “fixed bayonets,” “this is revolution”) and repeatedly emphasizes perseverance, vigilance, and the need for “the base” to remain engaged. The language is highly populist, framing current battles as existential for both the American republic and “Western civilization.”
In sum:
This episode of War Room is a blunt, unvarnished rallying cry to Bannon’s audience, asserting that half-measures and proceduralism are no longer sufficient to combat what he sees as a hostile, entrenched elite intent on erasing America’s populist movement. Through legal and political updates, guest interviews, and repeated calls for direct action, Bannon frames the day’s events as both cautionary tale and motivator for future, intensified engagement.
