I think that the investigations that we're seeing, the targeted political investigations, are of a piece with the other predetermined outcomes that we're seeing across the department. And one thing that you see if you if you read the piece from Emily Bazelon that interviewed the 60 DOJ attorneys is how consistent this theme is across different sections of the doj, where people are basically being asked to justify things the administration wants to do, whether the facts support it or not, these prosecutions have proceeded the exact same way. Now, one thing that goes along with that, that I think these prosecutions have been really powerful at revealing, is that when you get rid of reliance on objective fact and law, when you shuttle out all of the attorneys whose job it was to maintain a level of quality and integrity at the department, you start to make a lot of mistakes. And so one thing we're just seeing is just wholesale errors, both misconduct and just simple gaffes and just legal shortcomings in some of these things. And unfortunately, especially at the beginning of the administration, a lot of times, people just did not push back against these accusations from doj. Now that people are pushing back a bit more, we're actually starting to see DOJ put to its proof. And watching from the sidelines, having been in the department and knowing how much it's transformed, it was frustrating to see people accept things as fact when it was clear to me that if there were any testing, it would be revealed to be as thin as it is.

Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito has now weighed in on new gerrymandering congressional maps in Texas. On Friday night, he blocked a lower court's ruling that barred the state from using them. That court determined that the new district lines were drawn based on race. And the new Texas congressional map sets the state up to likely flip five Democratic seats held to Republicans in next year's midterm elections. Texas asked the court to act quickly because campaigning for the midterm election has already begun.

They're going to make Mamdani the face of the Democratic Party. 24 hours ago, the press secretary said, we are having a communist mayor come to the White House tomorrow. What are those Republican strategies strategists doing tonight?
Political Analyst
They are, they are memes. They are throwing paper. They are, they are, they are confused. Because here's the thing. Everybody who lives here, even people who didn't vote for him, know that Mamdani is like a reasonably charming, charismatic person. But what they did not expect is this buddy cop movie that he managed to pull off with the President of the United States. And I think if you're a Republican and you were thinking, here's our new aoc, here's our new Nancy Pelosi, and he's Muslim. You've got to throw that plan out, because what he looked like is your cool neighbor. What he looked like is somebody, Donald Trump. I mean, I don't have to repeat all the jokes on the Internet, but the way Donald Trump looked at him was, was. It made me uncomfortable. I was like, my gosh, like he wanted to hug him. He wanted in. One part of it is the President. For all of my absolute legitimate criticism of him, he is a heat seeker.
Stephen K. Bannon
He sure is.
Political Analyst
He knows charm and he knows power and he's like, okay, this guy, this Donald Trump has never been a say it to my face kind of person, but when he is around charm and power, he defers. And that's what we saw in every Republican consultant who thought it was going to be easy to knock Mom Donnie down. They've got to. They got to redo their strategy.
Republican Politician
My heart remains filled with joy, my life is filled with happiness, and my true convictions remain unchanged because my self worth is not defined by a man, but instead by God who created everything in existence. You see, I have never valued power, titles or attention. In spite of all the wrong assumptions about me, I do not cling to those things because they are meaningless and empty traps that hold too many people. In Washington, I believe in term limits and do not think Congress should be a lifelong career or an assisted living facility. My only goal and desire has ever been to hold the Republican party accountable for the promises it makes to the American people and put America first. And I have fought against Democrats damaging policies like the Green New Deal, wide open deadly unsafe border policies and the trans agenda on children and against women. With that has brought years of non stop, never ending personal attacks, deep death threats, lawfare, ridiculous slander and lies about me that most people could never withstand even for a single day. It has been unfair and wrong not only to me, but especially to my family. But it's been wrong to my district as well. I have too much self respect and dignity. I love my family way too much and I do not want my sweet district to have to endure a hurtful and hateful primary against me by the President that we all fought for only to fight and win my election. While Republicans will likely lose the midterms and in turn be expected to defend the President against impeachment after he hatefully dumped tens of millions of dollars against me and tried to destroy me. It's all so absurd and completely unserious. I refuse to be a battered wife hoping it all goes away and gets back. Better if I am cast aside by the President and the MAGA political machine and replaced by neocons, big pharma, big tech, military, industrial war complex, foreign leaders and the elite donor class that can never ever relate to real Americans, then many common Americans have been cast aside and replaced as well.
Stephen K. Bannon
And the AI stuff once, once they learn, for example, that we're not even using AI to make images.
Conservative Political Commentator
Okay. I think this, I actually think this is the most important story. The President is expected to sign an executive order that essentially stops states from having the ability to even regulate AI. What is your take on this choice? You know, I think this story is the 800 pound gorilla.
Stephen K. Bannon
Yes.
Conservative Political Commentator
It's repetition of the mistake that we made with not having any sort of legislation that guided developments on the Internet and with social media. It's worse than that because Trump is making money. Hand over fish. You have to add corruption to this one. Well, that's the real problem, but it's not corruption when the President does it stuff, because the Supreme Court has already given him a pass.
Political Strategist
Right.
Conservative Political Commentator
I mean, if he's sitting in the Oval Office engaging in transactions and talking with the Treasury Secretary, then the Supreme Court has said it's not a crime. Look, as a lawyer, hope springs eternal, and one hopes that the Supreme Court down the road might correct. But the reality is that all of this rampant absence of any sort of regulation is happening in an environment where corruption is rampant. As you say, I believe in following the money, and that picture is not a pretty one. But as horrifying as all of this is, this is still the loan issue that Trump is polling relatively favorably on. So in this terrible Fox News poll that Trump got this week, he still receives his top marks on border security. 53% of Americans approve and half of approve his handling on immigration. When you do not have. When you, when public sentiment is not against you, when the courts aren't fully against you, when lawmakers aren't holding you accountable, what gives here? I mean, are we just simply waiting it out for this to be decided in 2026, in the next election cycle? What is going to happen between now and then when it comes to any sort of accountability?
Democratic Staffer
I think what we're seeing is a result of the fact that Trump has spent the last 10 years running a national media campaign convincing all of us that immigrants are a threat and that they're here illegally. And there has been no nuance.
Political Analyst
Not us.
Democratic Staffer
And yes, not us. Not us. Not me. But, you know, I've been a Democratic staffer for many years, and what I saw on the other side was a lack of a defense of the people who were here and why it used to be a key priority for Democrats to fight for legalization of these people, because I hate to describe it this way, but they are sitting ducks to the whims of whoever is president. And what we're seeing. And what Trump is doing, he's using a system that is largely legal and that was built over many administrations that could, this always could have happened. And so what gives is I get a lot of hope by what I already saw in Charlotte, by what we saw in Chicago in L. A. I think the solutions aren't going to come from D.C. right now. I think the leaders in these communities really seeing these tactics and seeing in our schools there are, you know, 30,000 kids not showing up. And if we don't match that up with national leaders narrating that and we don't have a chance in some ways of helping people understand. These are not people with criminal convictions. They are not, they're not terrorists, they're not here illegally. Some are, but that's equivalent of a traffic ticket and then deportation.
Alex DeGrasse
More than 2 million immigrants moved from the U.S. as of October.
Political Analyst
Those are numbers from U.S. department of Homeland Security. 1.6 million of those they say are self deportations.
Alex DeGrasse
So it's everywhere.
Political Analyst
Federal police in Brazil have arrested former Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro and he was scheduled to start a 27 year prison sentence in just a few days. Bolsonaro was convicted of plotting a coup to remain in power after losing the country's 2022 presidential election. The right winger, ally of President Trump, has been on house arrest since earlier this year. Bolsonaro has denied all wrongdoing and called the trial a political witch hunt.
Stephen K. Bannon
This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people. Reasons I got a free shot. All these networks lying about the people. The people have had a belly full of it. I know you don't like hearing that. I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it. It's going to happen. And where do people like that go to share the big lie? MAGA MEDIA I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience. Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose? If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved. War Room here's your host, Stephen K. Band. It's Saturday, the 22nd of November in the year of our Lord 2025. Of course, it's our favorite show of the week, the Saturday show. We are packed today. Just want to tell you that Eduardo Bolsonaro is going to join us momentarily. As soon as he can get. Soon as we make contact with his studio. His father arrested, I guess overnight or early this morning, about to start his 27 year prison sentence for doing nothing. For just basically doing the same activity we did here in the United States, which is trying to get to the bottom of a stolen election because the election in Brazil was stolen. Now they've trumped up additional charges and raided his house and arrested him again with the same left wing judge. And it boggles my mind where we're playing footsie with Lula's group. Lula is a Marxist and a partner of the Chinese Communist Party and is behind the scenes trying to lead the BRICS movement to basically destroy the US dollar. Dave, Brad joins his car. So we're going to get to everything today. I got a strong recommendation to Stephen Miller and Homan and the why don't we. The mother of all sanctuary cities is New York City. Mondami's elected with, I don't know, 60% of votes of foreign nationals. And I don't know if you saw Tucker with Nikki Haley's son, but everything. I disagree with Nikki Haley on her neoliberal neocon policies. I will say this, she pretty damn good mother because that son is pretty impressive. And he's saying people come to the country and are naturalized, shouldn't hold political office. Kaboom. So the Ugandan Marxist jihadist. And look, President Trump's got his own way rolling. You know that he gonna zig and zag. He's got a master plan. He's playing five dimension chess. I got all that. But it doesn't take the fact away that Mandami with all his charm and look, remember he did the charm of the Tiktoks and going through the thing. We're the first guys to talk about this because Alex Degr is going to come up in a moment and Alex Legrasse is the guy. The young superstar strategist gave me a heads up on this guy back in February when he was polling at like 2% because of the working family party in the DSA. The combination of that, which has a massive ground game. And I think they announced the other day they had over 100,000 people canvassed for him, but I believe his vote was 60%, you know, foreign naturalized citizens, quote, unquote, like he's naturalized. I still make the point and I think it's fairly straightforward to prove that he lied on his naturalizations paper. He's actually not a citizen and he's not eligible to be the mayor of New York. And I would certainly hope that the administration, because we got to have, you know, you got to be. It's got to be fair. It's got to be whatever. You know, if somebody comes in here and lies in naturalization papers, they got to leave, they got to turf them out. And he lied about being a jihadist and associate with jihadists. Jihadist entities. In fact, Governor Abbott designated the Muslim Brotherhood in care and for as week as Abbott's been on everything. And I realized this took pushing of the Patriot Mobile team and particularly Colonel Self, the congressman down there, and others. Abbott did do it. He signed it. I would like to if the, if the, if the administration signed and we pushed a designation of the Muslim Brothers, a terrorist organization, I don't think it'd be too long before Mandami was shown the door, was put in a plane and sent back to Uganda. Yes, I'm saying it. I think that there's been dark money. There's been money coming through his parents, particularly his mother and other sources. And there's a number of people that have done this investigation that you can show it. But when are we going to New York City? I love Memphis, Chicago, L.A. portland, all of it. But New York City is the mother of all sanctuary cities. It's the global financial capital of the world. We can't have it overrun and controlled by illegal aliens, full stop. So I anticipate on Monday we're going to be sending ice there. Let's send Charlotte. Great. You got 30,000 kids not even there. That's how many illegal aliens got down in Charlotte. You got the construction sites are, are quiet and people saying that's terrible. Let's hire American citizens in those. Let's hire citizens before Elon gets his robots in there. How about an American citizen on a construction site? Short commercial break.

You can get everything we put up on Getter. I'm up there NonStop. It's Saturday, the 22nd of November, year of Lore 2025. We're gonna have a lot to go through today. Bolsonaro's gonna join us. I really appreciate the fact this audience is so engaged and so powerful. People come to us right away. You know, the people in Brazil reached out to us immediately. They got to come on War Room and talk about President Bolsonaro being arrested. Times of financial turbulence. I think we're going to have it. I think it's going to get a lot worse. You see this kind of mini meltdown in artificial intelligence stocks because I think people are saying, hey, what is exactly the business model here? Let me understand the math, because it looks like some people are calculating like 8% returns when all these investments are made. And right now, these data centers are out of control around the country. And so in the energy part of it no one's kind of walked through how this is not going to affect American citizens and have your electric bill blow up or. And I'm pro nuclear power, but, hey, I don't know. You're going to have 100 mini nuclear power sites. Who's going to run them? I like nuclear power when the United States Navy's running it under the Rickover model. I need a clock here, brother. Thank you, sir. We're always ready here on Saturday morning. Dave, Brat, you're riding shotgun with me today. Your thoughts?
Political Strategist
Yeah. Well, the Mamdani piece is a shocker. President Trump rose to power and built the biggest coalition ever because of his fight, right? The fight against border, immigration, the endless wars, the inflation, etc. And now Mamdani's in there saying he's in charge of affordability. Look at New York City or any other major Democrat city. And the hamburger index is 25 bucks to get a hamburger, fries and Coke in New York City, it's 12. Elsewhere across the country, look at education. It's over $40,000 per kid in New York City, the pension system's bankrupt in New York City. The list Peter Navarro went over of inflation. Momdani is in favor of every inflationary pressure, printing money, fiscal spending, city money. The green revolution is not over. They're just waiting out Trump. The globalists are still there. That green energy makes your fertilizer more expensive, makes your food more expensive. And so while he's saying, whoa, whoa.
Stephen K. Bannon
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. At least he has the stones to tax folks. We should have had in the big, beautiful bill we should increase. We should have started a new. A million bucks and tax them at 3%. We didn't do that. We backed off that Mendame's gonna do it. Jack Posobic had the only guts there yesterday. He asked him flat out, yep. Are you just gonna tax white people? The guy hates whites. He hates Christians, he hates Americans. You never heard that? You never heard American mention in his. In his speech, the smiley guy with the charm. They're talking about the charm yesterday in the Oval Office. And the charm on the tiktoks. Go back to the victory speech. Where's the charm there, you know, what did he say to president of the Challenge? Turn the volume up. He's gonna come in a charm. He is. Let me repeat this. He is a Ugandan Marxist jihadist. Okay? And if we designate the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organization, and we can unleash Scott Besant at Treasury and at IRS to get and have the intelligence services go into this guy's finances and his parents finances and what he's done. You know, this whole relationship with Egypt in these nefarious groups in Egypt, you're going to find some quite interesting things. Once again. Hey, if you, if you, if you're going to pal around Mandabi, that's fine because it's probably a five dimension chess strategy I don't get. But that's. I'm just a stupid Mickey. But what I would like to do is on Monday, pull them out of Charlotte and let's go to New York City. New York City's the mother of all sanctuary cities. We've been kind of delaying that because it's like, it's a strategy to kind of like we're going to go to Chicago, we're going to go to Charlotte, we're going to go to la, but we understand, boom, the mother load of this. The problem of this is New York City. How the hell you think he's a mayor? This is why this is. You're. He is the manifestation, the manifestation of 50 years of treason by our elites. Let me be blunt. Mandami is the. Oh, that's what it is. That's Sadiq Khan in London. Has anybody missed London, where the elites in the United Kingdom said, oh no, we gotta let them in. See what you got there. See what you got in Brussels. See what you got in Brussels. 30% Muslim population. See what you got in London. I told at the National Conservative Convention, I told the jurors, hey, don't worry about downtown Tehran. Don't worry about the mullahs. You got a problem in London. Jewish people can't walk in London in the middle of the day in certain sections. And before too long it's going to be Englishmen and whites that's coming. And that's what he represents in New York City. Of course they're going to have a smile on their face and be charming. They can be charmed. Was he charming? The knives Victory. So here's the thing. Let's look at his papers. Check his papers to see if he's 100% American naturalized. Let's do it. DHS ought to be all over this right now. Designate the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organization like Abbott did bravely, courageously in Texas. He's getting a lot of grief. He didn't want to do it. He's one of these Bush guys. You see them in the whole Iraq, Afghan war. Did they ever go after the Muslim Brotherhood? No, they did not. They went into the one secular nation run by A very bad guy, I might add Saddam Hussein and made up and lied about weapons of mass destruction because the neocons wanted to take it out. And all the neocons, you saw them in National Cathedral the other day. You saw them in National Cathedral, all over there. And they, they, Trump wasn't going to go, the president going to go anyway. But they didn't, they didn't want, didn't want him there. They had a Covid meeting. Right now this thing stinks to high heaven. Yeah, you have to confront. If you're not going to confront Marxist jihadist, we're not going to confront Marshall. So my only recommendation is what's good for Charlotte is better for New York City. You got Eric Adams is the mayor to. Eric Adams is the mayor till midnight, I guess, on New Year's Eve, January 1st. Let's. Let's go ahead. Let's go ahead and roll in ice. Let's get Tom Homan. Let's get Stephen Miller. Stephen, I don't need you going out to Memphis and talking big talk. Go to New York City and let's talk it. Let's get home in New York City. Christie, armor up. Up armor. Give me the two, six guns and go by and you can host Fox and Friends in the morning and then go clean out the city right after it. New York City is the mother of all sanctuary cities. How the hell do you think Mondami is the mayor? He's a. Let me repeat this. He's a Marxist jihadist. He's a Marxist jihadist, full stop. Of course they're going to smile up front. Let's put him under some pressure. Let's see how much he's smiling. Then let's see that chief of staff that was given post opos right here yesterday. Game stink eye. Because that's their Bolsheviks. They're Bolsheviks. These people know how to roll. Trust me. Look what they're doing around the rest of the country. Look at the working family party. Look at dsa. Here's the one thing I admire about them. They ain't backing off. DSA get more aggressive. You talk about anti Semitic. You run around all this anti Semitic. Look at these guys. Well, hello. And 33% of the Jews voted for them overall. And I think two thirds of Jewish people under 35 years old voted for them. Have you gone to their website? Have you seen what they're saying? You either confront it or you don't. You either confront it or you don't. Brat, I've taken your airtime. You grab the mic Back. Brad, you're. See, when you're not here, I can grab the mic and just hold it. You're too polite. Grab the mic. Search yourself.
Political Strategist
The young kids. The young kids you saw. And Mamdani is reclaiming the fight theme away from Trump. You gotta be kidding me. Trump needs to regain that ground. The whole country, the base, does not want to return back to the Republican establishment, golf club people, they want Trump and the fight. And Trump, like you're saying, one great way of bringing the fight is illegal immigration and this H1B scam from India. You know, processing 200,000 people, that takes up all of our time and resources just processing all these claims. The center for Immigration Studies put out a report two days ago.
Stephen K. Bannon
Yeah.
Political Strategist
And did a great job on all this. And so Trump needs to bring the fight to all of this and the green stuff and the globalist stuff, bring down the prices. And he's doing it, but he needs to take on Mom. Donnie.
Stephen K. Bannon
Yeah. People. People want to. People want to do this. And I realize the strategy is hope Mandami is going to fail. It doesn't look like President Trump pushed him to failure. Let Mandami fail on his own. So that's fine. Okay, I got it. That's a strategy. Okay. President's calling the shots. However, let's just send isis. Let's unleash. Stephen Miller should go up to on Monday and give the same speech he gave in Memphis. Homan should be up there and up armor. Kristi Noem, let her host Fox and Friends in the morning. Get the two, six guns in the up armor and boom, right after that, go down there and let's do a couple of raids and let's do the raids on the companies. You don't have to go to construction sites and roust working people. Go arrest a couple of CEOs. I think you can find a couple three in Manhattan or in the greater New York City area. I don't think it's gonna be that difficult. It's the railhead, it's a sanctuary city where they spend in tens of billions of dollars to pay for it. They're looking for the federal government to come in because he needs the cash that President Trump has. Hell, they got every service in the world. They have them in the Roosevelt Hotel for two years. The Roosevelt Hotel used to be. It used to be, I think the place they used to put the Saturday Night Live guests when they came into town is right there on Madison Avenue, right near Grand Central. It may be not a five star hotel, but it's not too shabby. In midtown Manhattan, they had them and they, they turned it over to a, to an illegal alien hotel. So I'm saying, hey, Mandami, do your strategy right there. Having the Oval so he can't accuse you of, of torpedoing it. But let's get, let's get ice, let's pull them out of Charlotte. Let's send the same team up there to New York City and start patrolling the streets. Put, show them the mailed fist. Hey, we're either going to get the country back, we're either getting sovereignty. Because I'm seeing now tweets and stuff like sovereignty Ukraine, I don't give a tinker's damn about the sovereignty Ukraine. Nobody in the United States does. It's not relevant. In fact, it's irrelevant. We're getting to all that I care about the sovereignty of the United States of America. And we sealed the border and it's an amazing job. But until we turf out all 20 million illegal aliens, we ain't got our sovereignty back. Degrasse Bolsonaro Brat Next.

Here's your host, Stephen K. Banff. Okay, I went on a rant. So I lost. I lost. I lost the grass for a while. Degrasse is going to come back and join us in the second hour. We're gonna get Ben Hornwell in Rome. Sovereignty. So I've been talking about and last night was the last of the episodes, but the Ken Burns's American Revolution. And I realize you're gonna get some woke in there because it's Ken Burns and pbs so you're gonna get woke. But I strongly Recommend it. It's 12 hours, 6 episodes and you've got 80% of it combat. If you're ever with US on the 4th of July where we talk with Patrick K. O' Donnell and we talk about when they landed in New York City, right as a Declaration of Independence been signed. And then we take you all the way through getting run out of New York, Long Island, New York, Brooklyn, or Brooklyn, Manhattan, New Jersey, all the way back down to when they retreated across what, the Delaware river into Pennsylvania, across from Trenton. And across from there they almost do it beat by beat. So these episodes have a combat. In fact, De Grasse's great, great, great, great, great, great, great either uncle or grandfather, whatever is one of the heroes at the end, the French Navy. But it's combat. But the whole point of the exercise, it's about sovereignty and consent to the govern. You will understand we stand on the shoulders of giants. What they did in the revolution is unbe brutal. It was one thing I do admire what Ken Burns did is the brutality. Because it's both a civil war. It's a civil war, a revolution and a global conflict. Kind of go up the escalatory ladder. And how it ends down south in South Carolina, in North Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, particularly South Carolina is one of the nastiest civil war. It's actually nastier than the Civil war that came later as a civil war because it was neighbor against neighbor. I mean in the place and the brutality of the neighbors against each other is jaw dropping. But as it metastasized to a global conflict, France versus England, with France coming in on our side, kind of reverse of the French and Indian wars or the 70 Year wars, you see the globalization of the conflict. Everybody's trying to get a piece of this continent. Everybody's trying to get a piece of American sovereignty and the cussedness. And that's the only way we win. It's not the framers of the signers of the Declaration of Independence. They are a bunch of smart lawyers. They're a combination. I said smart deal lawyers, kind of real estate speculators and. And freebooters like the Hancocks and the Sam Adams. Those guys, they obviously brilliant men and courageous men, but that ain't the fight. The fight was down to a couple of thousand in the Continental army and these militias. And this was a. It was a poor man's fight. The Continental army is unbelievable in their tenacity and stick to itiveness and the will just to survive and not to surrender. That's what kept it. Washington, after losing every principal battle, held the army together. He realized that was the point of the exercise. And what was it about? Sovereignty. Everybody wanted to be the sovereign here. Not just King George, but every person that came here, including the French, they all wanted a piece of the action and they all wanted to be. Tell the American people what to do. And thank God we had common men and women, the common man and the common woman that said, no, we didn't leave Europe and come over here. We're tired of sovereigns. We're tired of other people telling us what in the hell to do. We're going to tell ourselves. This is the point today, whether it's Ukraine, whether it's Israel, whether it's artificial intelligence, whether it's 15, 20 million illegal aliens brought in here by the elites. It's all about sovereignty. It's all about who calls the shots. And to cut to the chase, you call the shots. They have to have your consent to do this and what they want. This thing with the AI, why do you think they got the executive order? Why do you think. Why do you think, David. Do you think David Sacks gives a damn about your sovereignty and the sovereignty of your country? No. You think Elon Musk does? Elon Musk now is up on. He's got another thing, you know, AI. He's got this clip. Oh, AI, you know, in 10 years or 15 years is going to have. Is going to be super intelligent. They'll be making all the decisions and kind of throws in. I hope. I hope we create good. Good AI. Well, thanks, brother. Thanks for that. That's a. Let me write that down. Let me get my number two prince a lot and write that down. Let's create Good AI so that we're only enslaved by good AI. We're not enslaved by bad AI. We're not going to be enslaved. This experiment has gone on for too long. It's 250 years. Hell, as long as truly the real part of the Roman Republic. This has been a great experiment and it always gets back down to the same thing. A bunch of ornery with lots of cussedness and grit and what the fancy term today. You're antifragile, right? You're anti fragile. Antifragile. This. The American people are not going to be told what to do. They're going to make their own minds up what to do. And that is what a sovereign nation is. That's what a sovereign people is, full stop. And they're coming at you from every different direction because they want your productivity, but they want your productivity until they get the robots and then they'll toss you aside like trash. Look at that horrible story yesterday with Megan Garcia and her son. Who stands for Megan Garcia, who stands for that little boy. When the corporatists and the big tech people remember they had to sit in a room in Silicon Valley because this is, this is. They've thought this through very much. They understood they had a problem. Why did they spin. Why did Google spin it off? Why did they spin it off and get the two creators to leave Google and start up a new company? And Marc Andreessen put in 100, I don't know, putting $193 million, most of it from pension funds. Why did they do that? They realized they were playing with something explosive, right? They didn't want the liabilities, do they? And they created it and then they licensed it back for what, $2.7 billion. So Andreessen and the two demons that created this, and they knew at the time exactly what they were doing. This is precision engineering. They were creating an apparatus to get to little kids, to groom little kids, and more importantly, to allow little kids in the 11, 12, 13, 14, in the time when they're being formed, to summon the demon. What does Joanne call it? Summon the demon. And the demon came and the demon killed that little boy. Think of the steadfastness of the mother. I mean, think how, if it happened to you, what a screaming, raving maniac you would be about how this happened, about how corporate America and big tech. So that's what they think of people, the precision engineering. Think about it at all, and in due diligence, it will come up when you bring criminal charges, which we're working on right now to make sure that happens. When you bring criminal charges and they go through the discovery, not just in civil, but in a criminal, they get to it and people start rolling, start talking, you're going to find out they discussed this in meetings. Yes, they did. Yes, they did. Yes, they did. There were people there that said, no, we can't do this. This is going to be bad. You're going to summon the demon. You're going to summon the demon, and this is going to be harmful to little children, which is harmful to anybody. The AI psychosis hits anybody, they get deep into this thing and hey, it's telling you what to do. And all of a sudden you're spending all your time in it. Look at that. Look at Joe Allen's got case after case after case after case. That's what this fight's about. This is a righteous fight. Why? It's about your sovereignty. It's about the nation's sovereignty. Are we going to turn it over to a handful of people that have the worst record of the world and are amoral at best and evil at worst and have evil designs on people? Are you going to turn it over to the people that created the machine that murdered Sewell, her son? Is that what you're going to do? Because the demon's going to come for you and it's going to come for your family. And who's going to stop it then? That's where we got to stop it now. I don't care how much. I don't care. The stock market, I don't care what they're. I don't care if Nvidia's got 15, $5 trillion. Doesn't matter to me. The Asia Times and Reuters is reporting right now that they're doing another end run trying to sell chips to the Chinese Communist Party. Hey, if the threat that we have to give them everything, let them do everything, and there's no controls at all. You can't even have a discussion. If you have a discussion, you're a decelerationist. You're turning over the Chinese Communist Party. Screw you. Because we're at the. We're the ones that say, stop. Not one chip to China. I mean, one chip. I don't care if it's an old chip. No chips. None, zero. No capital, no equity capital, no debt capital. No students here in the United States. We ain't training any of them to get them out of the labs, get them out of the country. Companies here, get them all out. All of them. Not just students. All gone. You want to make sure they're not a threat. Simple. You cut off capital, you cut off technology. You cut off learning. You talk skills, you cut off the. The every aspect. They have the apparatus. They ain't going to be so tough because they need to suck it all out of the United States to do it. And no chips. And tell Jensen Huang. Jensen Huang is just an arms dealer. That's why he's an. It's Khashoggi. He's an arms dealer. Because these things are the most lethal. May. May be more lethal than nuclear weapons, may be more lethal than chemical weapons, may be more lethal than biological weapons. The United States knows that. Hey, we had a Covid. We had a biological weapon hit us from a lab in China run by the Chinese Communist Party. We have an ongoing chemical warfare attack on fentanyl killing hundreds of thousands of Americans, destroying our rural communities. And we know that. We know the issues of nuclear weapons. Heck, we gotta go now, start testing again because the Chinese Communist Party and the Russians are starting to man up. And maybe of all these, the most dangerous are artificial intelligence. Don't take it from me. Elon said the other day, in front of these people, they're all sitting there, all these tech guys are doing some their tech growing out, and they're sitting there and they're all gazing up at Elmo with that look, you know, there's Elmo and he just. Some guy asked him a question. It's kind of a convoluted question. But Elon says, hey, don't worry about it. Some questions actually got a point to it. But Elon says, hey, don't worry about it. Not to worry. Because AI is going to be in control in 10 years. I think he said, AI is going to be in control In 10 years. And let's hope it's good AI. So I took my pencil out. Note to self, I want to be enslaved by good AI. I want a good master. I don't want a bad master. But that could happen. How about this? We don't want any masters. The American people are masters of themselves. Good God almighty, we've only fought for 250 years. You got go over to section 60 in Arlington. Look at what they did in Afghanistan and Iraq. They weren't over there for them. They were over there for you. They were told it's the vital national security interest of the United States, that I watched March Patrol in the Hindu Kush, that I'm in the suburbs of Baghdad killing people. They were told that. And they gave their lives for that. That's because of our sovereignty. This is about our sovereignty. And our sovereignty is determined by the American people. And the American people in their sovereignty. Put Donald Trump in the greatest comeback in American history in the House and the Senate on a set of policies. Hey, here's the buy in. We're for it, young people are for it, et cetera. And Dave Brat is right. CIS think it's Jessica Vaughn. She's going to be with us on Monday. She can't make it today. They've had this amazing report of the industrial scale, industrial scale scam of the H1B visas. So now you got artificial intelligence, one side taking the jobs. And let's go ahead and invite in all South Asia and to top it off, let's invite, you know, a couple hundred thousand Chinese. Let's get them all. Let's give them work permits on the back of their degrees. How about this? How about staple an exit visa and how about shut down the H1B scam today because we're going to show you the industrial scale of it on Monday. The CIS people are going to be here.

Stephen K. Bannon
War Room, here's your host, Stephen K. Banner. DeGrasse is back. First off, Alex, we have to let me represent the Warren posse here. Say a thank you to your family. I guess I don't know, your great, great great grandfather or uncle or whatever is the hero at the end of the American Revolution and being the admiral of the French fleet that basically bailed us out at or I should say closed the trap in Yorktown. So thank you, thank you so much for that, sir.
Alex DeGrasse
Thank you, Steve. No, I had a lot of fun coming on when we had the, you know, when President Trump went down in Virginia. That was a fun time. We could talk more. We can get into the weeds. It's very fascinating story. It's not really taught in school, which is kind of weird. So I don't know what that's about but they should talk about Lafayette. But you don't get much about the, of the Navy. So I'm not sure.
Stephen K. Bannon
Yeah, I think any, any, anything that, that says hey France, bail us out was a. Because you guys did an amazing job. More on that later. Speaking of bailing out Supreme Court last night Alito stepped into middle of this text thing. Explain that. And then let's go around the map because this Indiana and let me be blunt, we need to pick a net up 10 seats to make sure that we can lock this thing down in September, November next year and President Trump doesn't get impeached. Degrasse the floor is yours.
Alex DeGrasse
Yeah. So the Texas map is temporarily back in place for 2026 while the Supreme Court considers the state's appeal. Obviously, the state appealed Friday evening, and Justice Alito quickly called for a response and issued administrative stay. So a lot riding on that situation. You know, we're gonna have to pray and move forward. I mean, no one thought this was gonna be easy, and I understand the Journal and things like that, but the reality is that we are taking action in response to decades of weak Republicans afraid of their own shadows that have caused our.
Stephen K. Bannon
Okay, hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on. You brought it up. Paul Gio in the editorial board of the Wall Street Journal points the finger at Degrasse Bannon, the war room, that we instigated this and we've destroyed any chance here because we never should have gone after. We never should have gone after redistricting. I might want to add to the Journal. You ought to learn something about political history. If Alistair Grass had not come to us in 21 and we got the net, eight seats, five out of Florida, we wouldn't hold the House of Representatives today, full stop. So, Degrasse, what's your response to the Wall Street Journal? Because they're calling you out, bro.
Alex DeGrasse
Well, I think it's just disappointing because what we need broadly, Steve, is we really need unity on every Friday. I mean, we've got lots of irons, lots of fires, and nothing matters more than this midterm election. It's something that we've been talking about, Steve, before they even, you know, when President Trump was on the ballot, we were talking about that. Steve just said, hey, we're looking at the next fight downrange because we're going to win this thing. And the House was tight. I mean, we're talking about three seats, remember where they're counting, counting, counting Trump's declared victory, and we're out there fighting, trying to stop this deal in California, and seats are slipping from us. And that thing was a total knife fight. And as soon as that ended, we said, okay, look, everyone on the show and I run into people at the airport, they're like, dude, I'm locked. And I love this. In the midterms, I'm like, this is it. This is the whole game. So what we need is all angles. We need all vectors of the Republican Party to come together to push forward the best we can. You know, the finger pointing is. Is not good on any parts, but that's just the reality that we've been dealt with. So, look, Ohio is The only state to finalize full stop. That's where we're at. Boom. Okay. Missouri, they're under investigation for using illegal immigrants to circulate petitions in their effort to.
Stephen K. Bannon
Let's get the numbers. But Ohio is not three. Ohio is finalized with two. Correct.
Alex DeGrasse
Yeah, but that's where we're at. That's what the.
Stephen K. Bannon
And they're not. And by the way. And they're not. They're not perfect. They're not perfect districts. They're good. They're very good. But it's two very goods, not two, not three perfects. Correct.
Alex DeGrasse
Yeah. We shift down. We've got Missouri, we've got the one. Okay. And there's a lot happening there. They're trying to sue, but apparently illegal immigrants were involved in the petition process. So that's what I was told. I got a briefing this morning. That's what I did. Saturday morning. North Carolina, we've got the state's 2023 map. That was just upheld by the federal court and the court is expected to uphold the 2025 map. So that's obviously huge. Okay, you got the Democrat states redraw. California has got a preliminary injunction hearing in mid December.
Stephen K. Bannon
So hold on. So I just want to make sure we got the math. Ohio's 2, Missouri's 1. North Carolina is another pickup. Right, Another one. So it gets me a four.
Alex DeGrasse
Yeah, right. Yeah. Okay, exactly.
Stephen K. Bannon
Keep going.
Alex DeGrasse
Then we've got. We've got California, you know, which they're facing a preliminary injunction hearing in mid December. The state is playing hide the ball with who drew the map. That isn't surprising given the map drawer. His name is Paul Mitchell recently said the first thing he did was create a new Latino district even though the law did not require it. California took a VRA compliant map and made it even more racialized. And that map drawer and the legislator admitted to doing that. And it's a blatant 15th amendment violation. This is critically important for people to understand, you know, so there's a lot of smart people kind of working to poke holes in that. Okay. That was shifting to Utah. The judge is asked to stay here decisions because of the late delivery of the file and the unusual high number of errors in the map.
Stephen K. Bannon
Utah's a neck, but Utah's a negative one, correct?
Alex DeGrasse
Yeah. These. These are the two negatives. Yeah. These are the Democrats state majority of California and you've got Utah. But I'm saying the judge a. We see a path here in California. I'm not saying it's going to happen. I'M just saying we're fighting every inch and so are a lot of loyal people. And in Utah, the judge has been asked to stay her decision to pull that one seat because of the late delivery of a file, errors with the map. And we expect a potential appear to the Utah Supreme Court and frankly eventually to the Supreme Court if he does not issue the stay. Okay, we've got Democrat states pending here. We've got Illinois. They're qualifying as closed for 2026. It's unlikely that they're going to be open to changing that. Looks like times running out there, but that's a later fight to deal with Maryland. The Senate President's opposed and it seems to be stonewalled. Republicans already sued this decade and one and prepared to sue again if Maryland tries to go eight. Oh, I think that Republicans will probably countersue for a five to one, frankly, which is possible because a like we've talked about earlier, Maryland's already been totally gerrymandered, obviously. Okay. We look at Virginia, these are all Democrat counter offenses on us. Okay. You know, Virginia Democrats are facing a lawsuit now in a Tanzewell County. It's a narrow Senate majority and no room for error. Could it happen? Yes. Is it easy? No. Are there multiple choke points where Republicans could potentially stop them?
Political Strategist
Yes.
Alex DeGrasse
Is it easy? No. So could we stop them? You know, I think that Virginia should be ready to vote in late April to defeat a left wing takeover of Virginia. New York obviously is suing itself to draw out Malliotakis. Okay. They've got that sneak attack.
Stephen K. Bannon
Yeah, Hang on one second. We're, we're gonna go to break the top of the hour. We're gonna get to Kansas, Nebraska, Indiana, more Republicans. But I'm not feeling net 10, just not feeling it in Virginia. These fights are going to be massive fights and maybe kick it down to 28. We'll get all into it. Also, we're going to talk about Ukraine.

iHeart Radio Announcer
This is an iheart podcast.
Date: November 22, 2025
Host: Stephen K. Bannon
Guests/Contributors: Alex DeGrasse, Dave Brat, various political commentators and strategists
This episode of "The War Room" is dominated by two intersecting themes:
These narratives are woven through Bannon’s signature combative style, analysis of news developments (including the arrest of Brazil’s Jair Bolsonaro), and calls to action targeting his politically conservative audience.
“We really need unity on every Friday...nothing matters more than this midterm election.” — Alex DeGrasse (51:52)
“He is a Ugandan Marxist jihadist...he hates whites, he hates Christians, he hates Americans." — Stephen K. Bannon (22:18)
"Trump is making money. Hand over fish. You have to add corruption to this one." — Conservative Political Commentator (08:10)
"Maybe of all these, the most dangerous are artificial intelligence. Don’t take it from me. Elon said the other day...AI is going to be in control in 10 years. And let’s hope it’s good AI." — Stephen K. Bannon (45:43)
"Until we turf out all 20 million illegal aliens, we ain’t got our sovereignty back." — Stephen K. Bannon (28:54)
“...the common man and the common woman said, no, we didn’t leave Europe and come over here...We’re going to tell ourselves. This is the point today...It’s all about sovereignty. It’s all about who calls the shots.” — Stephen K. Bannon (33:17–37:00)
On DOJ Prosecutions:
“When you get rid of reliance on objective fact and law...you start to make a lot of mistakes.” — Conservative Political Commentator (02:14)
On the Republican Base:
“The base does not want to return back to the Republican establishment, golf club people, they want Trump and the fight.” — Political Strategist (28:01)
On New Political Faces:
“They are, they are memes. They are throwing paper. They are, they are, they are confused...he looked like your cool neighbor.” — Political Analyst on Mamdani (04:22)
On Trump’s Border Policies:
“He still receives his top marks on border security. 53% of Americans approve and half approve his handling on immigration.” — Conservative Political Commentator (08:33)
On Illegal Immigration as Existential Crisis:
“We can’t have [NYC] overrun and controlled by illegal aliens, full stop...Let’s send ICE there.” — Stephen K. Bannon (16:23)
On AI and Tech Moguls:
“David Sacks gives a damn about your sovereignty...You think Elon Musk does? ...Let’s create Good AI so that we’re only enslaved by good AI. We’re not enslaved by bad AI.” — Stephen K. Bannon (44:40)
On Deterring China and Decoupling:
“Not one chip to China. I mean, one chip. I don’t care if it’s an old chip. No chips. None, zero. No capital, no equity capital, no debt capital. No students here in the United States. We ain’t training any of them...get them all out.” — Stephen K. Bannon (46:40)
The episode, marked by Bannon’s urgent and adversarial energy, posits the U.S. as at a generational crossroads. He and his guests warn of the hollowing out of American sovereignty—via AI, “illegal” immigration, judicial activism, and globalist collusion—and call for maximum political mobilization and counteraction, channeling both populist nostalgia and anxiety about a changing America.
Central Takeaway:
Bannon’s “War Room” paints the struggle for political and cultural power in apocalyptic terms, using the language of sovereignty, betrayal, and constitutional crisis to forge a combative, action-oriented mindset among his listeners.
For listeners: This summary covers the substantive sections of the show. Advertisements, intros/outros, and promotional banter have been omitted.
