We are looking right now at the gdp number at 4.3% is the actual number versus an estimate of 3.3%.
- [03:21]
Mark Tepper, your reaction.
- [03:23]
Mark Tepper
So last week we talked about inflation coming in lower than expected. Now economic growth is one full percentage point faster than expected. It was supposed to come in at 3.3, came in at 4.3. This is a direct result of everything President Trump has put in place. Net exports are on the rise because of Trump's tariff policy, which is leveling the trade playing field. AI's increasing productivity, businesses are investing in spending and the consumer remain strong. And just think next, I think, well, next quarter they'll, they'll end up getting an extra $150 billion in refund checks that they can then deploy and spend as well.
- [04:02]
Stephen K. Bannon
So great number, great number, 4.3%.
- [04:05]
Neil McCabe
And I've got to say, when I.
- [04:07]
Stephen K. Bannon
See a GDP of 4.3%, I have to believe 5% is not far away. And that, of course, is what Louis.
- [04:14]
Navalier told us last week, Mark, that.
- [04:16]
We'Re going to see a 5% GDP handle in the first half of the year.
- [04:20]
Mark Tepper
He looks like Nostradamus right now. I mean, he almost predicted that on the head. Obviously, 5% is well within our reach, especially given the consumer tailwinds I just mentioned. Right. Well, it's really a fantastic number and it's a great Christmas present for the American people. And, you know, I would say that the headline for me is two things that I think the big macro trends that we're seeing in these numbers are, first of all, that President Trump's trade agenda is working. And so we got about, you know, one and a half percent of the growth on 4.3 because we reduced the trade deficit. And then the other thing that I think, which is a big macro thing that we're seeing is that the artificial intelligence productivity boom is really clearly in the data. And I guess you and I are old enough that we remember back in the 90s when the computer came in that all of a sudden you had like 4% quarters all the time, one after the other. And it kept surprising people because they thought, oh, you know, computers everywhere but in the productivity data. But we're seeing it in the data and we're seeing the same kind of regular surprises for market participants. And so we went back and we looked at every Bloomberg forecast for the main numbers since September and found that on average we outperformed the forecast 94% of the time. So if 94% of Wall street economists are getting the macro trends wrong, they need to start to think about, hey, you know, maybe Trump's policies are way better than we thought and maybe the fake news that says all these terrible things about Trump policies should reconsider and you know, get grab their pencil and redo their economics.

Stephen K. Bannon
Markets are reacting to all of these cross currents. Rick, what can you tell us?
- [06:02]
Neil McCabe
Well, you know, I like the way the charts tell a picture. If you look at twos and tens when the number was released, a couple of things should jump out at you. The twos definitely seem to be more aggressive in holding the upside. I don't think that's for any big reasons to explain the Fed or acknowledge percentages and probabilities. I think it's purely the next chart which is 10 years bucking up against that 419 to 420 resistance. That chart goes back nearly two weeks and stopping it there makes predictions perfect sense. And if you open the chart up, should we settle above 419 and it doesn't look like we will, that'd be a three and a half month high yield. Close to me a bit of the surprise today was the dollar index. When the data was released at 8:30 it definitely turned up. It had been moving down. But it really doesn't alter the general picture any. Close today below 98.14 is a two and a half month low. And to answer your question more directly, Kelly, I personally still don't see any path to get to 2%. So many could disinflation, especially those that were potential picks for Fed chairs. But ultimately, just like anything else in our economy, when the economy gets good, competition for capital gets hot. And that's why usually historically a good economy may have higher rates. Specifically on the long end, it isn't necessarily a bad thing. I think the big negative here is the fact that we have one report with hot inflation. We have other reports with cool inflation. I need to get a better gps and in terms of consumer confidence, I would take a very big shovel and shovel them all right into the garbage dump because Main street media has polluted the well and this administration doesn't get a lot of credit that the markets give it. And I think that's what the issue is driving negative confidence. This is the primal screen dream of a dying regime.

War ROOM here's your host, Stephen K. Ban.
- [08:51]
Stephen K. Bannon
Tuesday 23rd December your voter 2025 I said in my speech the other night to Amfest that this would be the, I don't want to say next the midterm election, most important election in history. You've heard that every election for years, although we have won seven of eight national elections since 2015, 2016, that this would be the hardest and toughest and I think the most politically violent because the radical left is about to lose the economic argument. You can tell this as we've been tracking our war room and bringing you the top experts to talk about the big beautiful bill and the capital expenditure from that and the tax relief that capital providers are getting, companies are getting, plus the forcing function of the pincer move, the forcing function of the tariffs which are driving corporate and country investment in the United States and plant and equipment to which President Trump says 19 trillion but it's, it's, I don't know if that's the exact number but it's a big number, as is the big number other that is coming now. But it's really going to manifest itself in the first and second quarter. Folks, I just want you to know the number that came out today, when you really get below the hood is pretty damn impressive. If you couple that with the inflation number the other day, we're point down on inflation, which is nobody expected that. And now you have 4.3% growth. And as EJ and Tony said, this is not because of government spending. A lot of the positive numbers you had during the Biden regime was 100% because of government spending. Here you've got consumer, you got solid consumer spending. It's just not all in the elites. You've got some Capex coming in. These are very solid numbers. Maria Bartiromo said, hey, if you get 4.3 now she sees a 5 handle sometime in 2026 and we start getting 5% growth, you're kind of turbocharging in the modern world. My point, if this trend continues, particularly when the big payoff of the capital expenditure and of course they talked there about the tax returns and all the different tax breaks he's given working class people and what they're talking about, these refunds, plus you got the 1776 money coming in. You know, you could put up some big numbers. Potentially. The Democrats are going to lose the club that they have tried to browbeat President Trump from the beginning of the economy. He got a terrible economy. And it looks like with, you know, Scott Bessant, Peter Navarro Hassett, with no help from Powell and the Fed at all. We've had Malpass on here telling you about how it's an anti growth strategy over there. That it is. This is enormously, enormously impressive. And a bunch of the people are sitting there going, oh, Trump is finished, it's done. Let's move on. And maga, you know, maga's like the school cafeteria now. Who's sitting at the cool clubs, the cool kids table, who's saying what about what person? As I keep, as I said at that speech the other night, and I tell you every day on the show, that's not, that's all noise. All of it's noise. There are deep, deep things going on here that from a policy perspective, whether it's AI, whether it's this issue of Greater Israel, whether it's the mass deportations and at the cornerstone of it is the economy. Now we're as a populist nationalist movement, we're not like the traditional Republicans. The economy is everything because of much more than the economy. We're a country and a culture and a society. And on that note, the Supreme Court, I'm not saying it's a total loss, but I think it was a surprise. At least it was a surprise to me. Maybe not to some of the people on the left and maybe not even some of the people that were arguing it, although I think the administration, we did get a speed bump today. They've ruled that it's six, three, that the troops can't go into Chicago to remove, to support the ICE agents and removing illegals. For right now, that's on hold. The president can't send them in until the whole thing's adjudicated. In other words, they were looking for temporary relief to keep the troops in there. The Supreme Court has essentially backed President Trump's Article 2 powers and the expansion of those powers to what the Constitution says. And I think this is the first time we've really hit a speed bump. We're going to get more about that. We're trying to get Mike Davis, some of the legal guys, but we got Neil McCabe who's a national Guard, to give that perspective. I want to bring in Barris, Richard Barris. So, Richard, you've done this big poll, you always do a Christmas poll, and I want to get to that. But I got to ask you these numbers and I'm going to replay part of that cold open later. You saw the, you know, kind of the people very excited, I want to say ecstatic, but very excited about where these numbers are going, particularly people that are supporters of President Trump. And I can just double up. If you read the ft, if you read the New York Times business section, the Washington Post business section, the Wall Street Journal, it's always doom and gloom. Their elements, they like the tax cuts for themselves on the big beautiful bill. But they say President Trump's lost, you know, the animal spirits have lost confidence in him. I think it's anything but that. And I think these numbers today are pretty shocking thoughts about that, Richard, because I said, hey, look, as soon as the Democrats lose affordability and they had, we, they got a double whammy yet a significant drop in inflation and toward growth. I mean, it should be the exact opposite. President Trump kind of that the magic he pulled in 2017-2019, culminating in 2019, maybe. Back at work, sir?
- [14:37]
Richard Barris
Yeah. Thanks, Steve, for having me, as always. Merry Christmas, everybody. Look, that report, you know, I, you watch cnn, you watch cnbc, and you know, they can't help it. They have to, you know, at least they could try to glaze if they want. But this was a much bigger number than, and truth be told, if you understand how the methodology for GDP works, you understood from the beginning the brilliance of Donald Trump's tariff strategy. Steve, we've had this insane policy of slicing a massive chunk of our GDP off with ridiculous trade deficits and now we have these multi year lows that we haven't seen in a long time or narrowing of the deficit, plus the tariffs themselves. And I think this is a very big, very big deal for people who had to, you know, tolerate and live through what the left wing media said would happen with these tariffs. They did not create the inflationary crisis that the Chicken Littles, who are, you know, we're claiming the sky was going to fall, said they would create. So this fear that they put into the public never came to fruition. And now we're seeing this huge growth. I was listening to Maria in the, in the open, you know, 5% growth on the horizon. It can happen. He changed. He did something that no other president really had the, you know, the stomach or the backbone to do. He went after the ridiculous trade regime. And that was always going to have a dramatic impact on gdp plus spending was a lot, much more than people expected. It was 3.5. The consensus on econom day was two and a half. That's a big beat, Steve. A big beat. When they're concerned.
- [16:20]
Stephen K. Bannon
It'S a major print. I remember when we talked about the big beautiful bill and debt and deficits and increasing. The audience will remember this. We had Besson on here. Besson's theory, the case, if you get to three, definitely three and a half, but maybe 3% growth continuous off of this, that you could outrun the deficits of adding more to the national debt. I mean, none of those guys thought about a 4.3% in the third quarter in the end this year. And I think what Maria is saying is that, hey, you can see, you can see a, you can see a print. You can see a print for 5% in 2026. This is why I say the Democrats, when you take this issue away from them, which they've totally misread in the, in the, in the business media has been, you know, clubbing President Trump. That's why I said at Amfest, you take this, do you take this issue away from them? They're going to, they're going to go crazy and they're going to be even more dangerous than they've been to date. Anyway, Richard, you've got your Christmas poll. You do every year, and we always have you on to talk about it. We're packed. We start off today. I didn't want to have many guests. I wanted to spend a lot of time with each guest on a couple of issues, including what's going on with Heritage. Huge news. Rabbi Walecki birthed that huge news this morning on the show that Ron Dermer and others are working on. A proposal with Netanyahu that I think he's going to present to President Trump when he comes to meet. It's about ending the MOU. People have talked about extending it for another 25 years about ending it, not taking any more money from the United States for Israel's defense.

Here's your host, Stephen K. Band. RICHARD barris, Good news today over the economy, of course, it's coming out a couple days before Christmas. A lot of people there were impossibles, but a lot of people kind of punched out the news and are doing things closer to home. But you've always got your, your Christmas poll. You're revealing it now. Can you walk us through it, sir?
- [21:43]
Richard Barris
Little late this year, Steve. It's usually about a week earlier. But, you know, things, you know, the calendar calls, right. But every year we ask, we ask a series of questions. Number one, do you celebrate Christmas? And then various ways that people do. We even ask what their favorite, you know, color scheme. Christmas color scheme is the classic red and green. Right. The red and white candy cane, which is all really fun. But I think the highlight from this poll is that this year, well, first of all, 92% of the country still celebrates Christmas, which is incredible. But when this year we decided, we always had this question which asked people whether or not they how religious do you celebrate? Is it a strongly religious component for you? Somewhat religious, not really religious. And this year we wanted to expand on that. So we asked straight up about belief in God. And that's not just to everyone who said, yes, they celebrate Christmas. That's everybody and belief in God. About 8 in 10Americans believe in God as a testament to this being a Christian nation. 93% of them believe that Jesus Christ was the son of God, which is something else that we asked, which I, I just thought is huge. Somebody's got a point blank ask this. We'll ask about the resurrection when we get around to Easter. But we really wanted to ask that point blank to people and that Number was massive. Of the 10%, Steve, another big one. Of the 10 who told us that they were unsure about whether they believed in God because. Because our results show that this unbelief for the rise of the nuns is probably exaggerated. It's more like we have a bunch of spiritual, or would be spiritual people who want to believe in God wandering around in the wilderness because church leaders are too busy, you know, shilling for their favorite foreign policy or whatever it is. But we were told by these people that the reason why they said unsure is that they think that God probably or likely exists. 60% of them said that and that they're. They just have doubts. So you have this massive number of people that we just consider to be unbelievers, really. Not unbelievers. They're celebrating Christmas. They want to believe. They just have doubts. They have questions and they don't know. And I. I honestly think every year, the Christmas bowl, it's great, it's fun, but it does highlight that the church has some real problems. And this year, when we prodded a little bit more, now we know why people are not answering their questions. Only about 40% of those who said they were unsure said that it's likely. In their minds, maybe God doesn't exist, but they still even doubt that nobody, almost none of the people who said they're unsure say that, you know, God just. Just doesn't exist. That's amazing to me. Think about that.
- [24:37]
Stephen K. Bannon
Yeah, go ahead. Yeah, Yeah, I want to go back and just make sure we get nomenclature right. When you say nones, that's N O, N E, S, that's people that don't have an affiliated religion at all, whether it's Hindu, Muslim or Christian, and then don't define it from there. So walk me back through that math again, and particularly how's it trended over time? You do this every year. You kind of take the temperature of the American people during one of our holiest seasons. How is this trended over time? And how the. The. Because everybody, Time magazine, they all talk about nuns, so people are not affiliated. How is that trended over time?
- [25:16]
Richard Barris
So that has. So the rise of the nuns, as they always like to call it, has flatlined and somewhat reversed. And we measure this year over year, like you said. Every year it appears to be marginal, but those nuns have fallen from a high of 24 to now around 19 18%. So it's on the decline. It's just that these people don't know where to go. That's what it comes down to, they don't know where to go, so they don't know who to ask. They don't know where to pray, they don't know where to go observe. They just, they, they feel like they have no idea. And they have a deep distrust of church institutions. There have been, you know, various scandals over the years that have, that have hurt religious identification pretty badly. All of the, all of the research shows that, but it doesn't mean they don't want to believe, and it doesn't mean there's this incredible explosion of secularism. There was, is what I'm trying. There was once upon a time. Now that has reversed in as far as just the number of people who celebrate Christmas. The number who, who said they have no religious affiliation but celebrate this year is actually up about four points from last year, which, you know, these things don't happen in huge blocks, but we do watch the trends. And I think this again, I mean, the highlight of this poll every year is that I think church leaders need to remind themselves what their primary focus is. Steve, if you're a Christian like you, or I am, right, you believe in the eternity of the soul and you believe in salvation, especially if you're a believer in Christ. And if you said, if any of these respondents said, yes, I believe that Jesus was the son of God, then you have a duty to go out and get those people and save them.
- [26:58]
Trevor Comstock
Right.
- [26:58]
Richard Barris
I mean, that's what this is all about. And not every person takes it as seriously as maybe they should if they're Christians. But, you know, who should every day, Church leadership. And they're too busy at this event, you know, talking to this, what, you know, this lobbying group, this. I mean, they're all over the place. Let's get real. They're all over the place. Well, and they need to refocus on what their primary mission is. Save souls.
- [27:25]
Stephen K. Bannon
We had the head of. I've got a clip, I haven't played it yet. Of the head of the Catholic bishops and, you know, the Catholic. What refugee, along with the Lutheran refugee. They're taking money hand over fist on this scam to let these refugees illegally in the country and then skim money off the top. The bishop just sits right there. He made a, he made a video about how he. They adamantly oppose President Trump's deportation plans. Really, you know, illegal. They call them undocumented. They're not undocumented. These people are illegal. Undocumented. It's like they didn't get their driver's license updated. That's not this at all. This. Is this an illegal alien invasion? And the Catholic, Catholic Charities has been one of the worst in exacerbating this. Let me go back, because there's all this debate now. Is this a Christian nation or not a Christian nation? Your polling shows what, what percentage of people are Christians and then what percentage of people are trying to have lived Christianity by regularly attending religious services or being part of a religious community or denomination?
- [28:27]
Richard Barris
Yeah. So here's the. Here's the kicker. 80% overall say they believe in God. Of those people, 93% say that Jesus Christ was the Son of God. Yet only about 40% or 45% will call themselves or identify with being Protestant or another denomination. And about 25, upwards of 30, sometimes will call themselves Catholics. So you have this gap, right? Anywhere between 10, 15, sometimes even 20 points of people who don't want to identify with one of those traditional Christian denominations yet are saying they believe in God. So something is wrong. They want. And by the way, the vast majority of them think that Jesus was the son of God. So this is a church failure, you know, and you have the Catholic Church, who has never quite recovered from, you know, their scandal, right, with, you know, children. We had that. But also, they're not only out of step with Americans on an issue like immigration. Real Clear Politics just did the Catholic voter poll, which showed they're out of step with their own, congregate with their own, with their own, you know, Catholic membership in America. Catholics have always been a bit of a thorn in the side for the Pope, right. In the papacy and Vatican, but they are overwhelmingly on Donald Trump's side and Republican side of this issue while their leadership goes on and on about doing your Christian duty. Well, how many, how many illegal immigrants has the Vatican taken this year? Right. Of course, they're worried about preserving the value of their own citizenship. And their Identity is only 600 and something, you know, citizens in the Vatican. Right. So, yeah, so were we. And they don't seem to care because why? Because it's money and it's big business. And then on the other side of that, on the Protestant side of that, Steve, these people are orphaned because the truth is, mainstream and evangelical Protestantism really has not recovered in the eyes of the general public since the Jimmy Swagger and the Hagee scandals. They view them as judgmental hypocrites, let's just be real, judgmental hypocrites who are more concerned about the politics of other nations than they are about the politics of their own. So these people are just walking around in the wilderness looking for God and there's nobody to tend to the flock. I mean that to, to that flock and that's a shame. But it does highlight how God is just on the move whether those leaders are there or not. And that's because people are searching for something. And I think there are fundamental truths that we've been missing in this society and people want to return to them.

This is the biggest poll on real clear politics right Now. It's almost 4,000 with 3,977 to be example to be exact. And we have mixed modes way that, ways that we reach people. And by mixed mode there's different ways that you data collection mode that you can reach people. Some people are online opt in panels. Some people are phone and interview. Some people are text or text to online. We do it all, Steve. And the reason is, and I'm gonna, I'm gonna commit pollster heresy right now, but the truth is we don't all have, you know, landlines anymore. So the principles of randomization are not what they once were. So, so different groups respond at different rates at, you know, or different groups respond to different modes at different rates. So we have to account for that. So the way around that and the way or, or at least the way to counter that and the way to deal with lower response rates that we've seen as pulsers over the years is to increase your sample. All right, in this case, guys, sorry. Bigger really is better and you have to collect larger samples to account for for it.

Here's your host, Stephen K. Banff. Okay, tomorrow for our Christmas Eve show, it will start 10 o' clock in the morning. We're going to be in Israel with Jason Jones. He'll be in Bethlehem at Manger Square and in Rome at the Vatican. Ben Harwell will be at St. Peter's Square. And so we will go back and forth and talk to pilgrims and tourists and officials in both things can be great. Couldn't be more excited about it. I want to thank Jason Jones and his team and Ben Harnwell, who is our team. I think he actually may be taking a cameraman. I want to thank everybody for setting this up in real America's Voice. Really looking forward to it. Don't miss tomorrow morning show. We're getting Neil McCabe's camera sets. I want to go to Trevor Comstock. Trevor, When I was at amfest last week, folks coming up in the posse really love Sacred Human Health. They love what you guys are doing. They like it that all your products kind of are kind of handcrafted and you go out of your way to make sure they're very specially made and don't have any of the junk that's put in there by companies a little more corporate. What do you got for us today?
- [37:41]
Trevor Comstock
Yeah, always great to see you, Steve. So just a quick reminder, we are still running our Christmas sale all the way through Christmas, obviously for 20 off all products. So just make sure to use Code Christmas at checkout. If you just go to sacred human sacredhumanhealth.com Again, just use code Christmas for 20 off any one time order. Just wanted to mention that before I forget, but also I wanted to just touch on one of our newest product releases, which is our creatine monohydrate. And we've only been selling it for a short while. But the feedback that we've been getting, especially lately, has been phenomenal. And for anyone that doesn't know, just a little background on it, creatine is really unique because it is one of the most studied and effective nutrients available. And it helps everything from supporting, you know, your brain health, your memory, as well as cognitive function. And then, you know, in essence, it essentially helps your brain produce more energy, which is pretty remarkable. And it does a lot of things like improving focus as well as mental clarity, which just makes it perfect for anyone looking to stay sharp and alert, especially if you are, you know, fatigued or sleep deprived. It works really great in that scenario as well. I can attest to that. But then also, creatine is really amazing because it's also fantastic for physical performance. So it also helps your muscles produce more energy, especially during high intensity exercise, which means you can essentially lift heavier, train harder, as well as recover faster. So a lot of people love it. Just, you know, if you're, if you're working out a lot or even walking or doing cardio, it really helps speed up recovery. And, you know, if you want to compare creatine to other, you know, brain boosters on the market, you know, I always say that those can sometimes be beneficial, but more oftentimes than not, they just have a ton of random ingredients. I don't actually do anything. Or proprietary blends that just contain a ton of chemicals and artificial ingredients, which is obviously basically just a bunch of junk. Whereas creatine, what I love about it is it, again, it's one of the most studied and effective nutrients in history and has a ton of studies backing it. So I can't recommend it enough. Like I said, there's been a lot of reviews that we've had come in recently, especially from the war room posse. I know they've been liking it then. I use it every day. I've been using it for years as well. And I always feel super sharp and alert. And, you know, I pretty much, at this point never get sore and I'm always pushing myself at the gym. So again, I can't say enough about it and really recommend people check that product out.
- [40:02]
Stephen K. Bannon
Fantastic. Where do people go? I want them to check. When they get a little downtime over the next couple days, I want them to go in and check, look at the products, look how they're made, look at the reviews, and then hit the contact button and get to you. So where do folks go?
- [40:15]
Trevor Comstock
Yeah, so you go to sacredhumanhealth.com or you can type in sacred human to Google and we'll pop up. And then just as I had mentioned, still running that Christmas sale all the way through the 25th or sorry, the 26th, actually an extra day. But yeah, code Christmas 20 off any one time order. And just let us know if you have any questions. You can always ping us through the contact us button.
- [40:39]
Stephen K. Bannon
Trevor Comstock, merry Christmas. Thank you for coming on. And this goes to Boxing Day.
- [40:44]
Richard Barris

- [40:44]
Stephen K. Bannon
Merry Christmas. Boxing Day show. Merry Christmas. Thank you, brother. Okay. The president has not lost many at the Supreme Court, particularly in his role as commander in chief. Let's go. We got a cold open for Neil McCabe and Tage. Also, Eric Teetzel is going to join us in the next hour. Discuss this. This is quite important, really. A first speed bump we've hit on this. Let's go ahead and play it.
- [41:06]
The supreme court in a 6, 3 decision, has blocked the Trump administration from federalizing and deploying members of the National Guard in Illinois. Joining me now, Ms. now legal affairs reporter Fallon Gallagher. Fallon, working in. Tell us about this decision. Yeah, Ariel, this is a significant loss for the Trump administration. The court had been weighing this bid since October. This is one of those cases that came through the emergency docket. The Trump administration had asked to allow the deployment and the federalization of the National Guard in Illinois. Now they've been sitting on it for a while, which caused us to speculate, maybe they were waiting to see whether this happened in another city and maybe there was a circuit split. But now they've decisively ruled against the Trump administration, saying that he cannot deploy or federalize the National Guard Guard in Illinois. And I want to read very briefly from this ruling. They say that the government has not carried its burden to show that the statute permits the president to federalize the Guard in the exercise of inherent authority to protect the federal personnel and property in Illinois. We need not add and do not address the reviewability of findings made by the president under the statute or any other statute. The application is denied. This, I want to say, also appears to be 6:3, as with regular emergency docket applications, you don't have to get that breakdown of how the justices voted. We know that Gorsuch, Thomas and Alito all wrote dissenting opinions. So it appears that at 6, 3, it appears that Barrett and Roberts sided with the liberal justices here. But again, this is a massive blow for the Trump administration. So just for a second, speak about the possible wider implications of this ruling on the attempts to federalize the National Guard and other places in the country.
- [42:41]
Richard Barris
Yeah.
- [42:41]
Stephen K. Bannon
The Supreme Court has now set this precedent here that the Trump administration cannot federalize or deployed the National Guard under this specific statute. So this is a decisive victory or a decisive loss for the Trump administration.
- [42:56]
Wow. Yeah. And maybe they waited till right before Christmas to, to put this out. Taj, I want to go to you first on just using the National Guard and what President Trump has done for law and order and also to protect ICE agents in federal buildings, because, you know, we've shown it all the way from Portland and Seattle to Chicago. I mean, it's out of control, just practically. How are we going to get this done if he can't, if he can't federalize the National Guard and put him in there for support?
- [43:27]
Taj Gill
Well, I think he's just going to have to surge more ICE agents to these high risk areas that they're contested in. Yeah, it's definitely, it's definitely not a good decision to come right before Christmas. And especially in a place like Chicago where they need the National Guard. You see what they did in Los Angeles, they definitely helped the National Guard there. So if the, if the Supreme Court's going to block the National Guard, then I think, I don't know if this is legal, but federalizing the National Guard by deputizing them and giving them federal, federal credentials, I don't know if that'll work. But if that doesn't, then he's just going to have to surge in ICE agents from other areas until they get this cleaned up. And then he's just going to have to shuffle around ICE and Homeland Security agents to, to reinforce each other in these high risk areas where they're actually contested by the local gangs and criminals.
- [44:21]
Stephen K. Bannon
Yeah, well, we haven't had time, but we could show Ben Berkwe has gotten amazing footage. And we just, I mean, as soon, as soon as ICE guys come in with the vehicles, they're now totally surrounded by these protesters. They got the whistles, they're banging the gongs. I mean, and the ICE agents, I think, are very, you know, I think almost overly professional sometimes and not getting the crowds out of the way. But they've locked out. Forget mass deportations. You're kind of having a tough time getting the bad hombres out those onesies twosies that we were doing before. So this is a huge blow. I think, just practically, I think the president go back to the drum board.
- [44:59]
Taj Gill
Because I think they need to search some of the uniformed Border Patrol agents off the southern border to these high risk areas and, you know, bring them in, in armored vehicles and in their full uniform and full kit, instead of rolling these guys in in civilian vehicles and they're, you know, in, in their civilian clothes, I think it's, it's time to bring the armor in, bring full uniform Border Patrol agents in for short periods of time just to clean up these areas and then surge them back to the border and bring them back as needed in high risk areas where the ICE agents are actually contested.
- [45:36]
Stephen K. Bannon
So hang on a second, I'll get. Neil McCabe joins us. Neil, you want me to. You're still, you're National Guard, correct?
- [45:43]
Neil McCabe
Yeah, I just retired this month from the army reserve after 32 years of coast Guard and Army service.
- [45:52]
Stephen K. Bannon
So what does this mean by the President Trump? They've ruled against President Trump 6 to 3. And folks, if you're keeping score at home, Amy, Coney, Barrett and Roberts. That's correct. They sided with the progressive, the radical progressives on the court. Most conservative. This is so this is bad news.
- [46:10]
Neil McCabe
We're supposed to have a 6, 3 majority, Steve. I mean, it's my understanding that Kavanaugh did a concurrent joining the majority. And so, you know, this is a bad dynamic on the Supreme Court, but it also, you know, it speaks to the actual, you know, essence of the republic. Right. If the NCO is the backbone of the army, the army is the backbone of the nation. And if you can't exercise control over the army, then what are we doing here? You know, the initial call up when Lincoln called up those first troops after Fort Sumner, that was what, 75,000. And that was all National Guard. They were state militiamen, but that was all National Guard that Lincoln was calling up. JFK called up 30,000 National Guardsmen in active duty for the troubles in Alabama and Mississippi. And so, you know, Eisenhower at Little Rock, Arkansas, and this wasn't national security, obviously, desegregation and civil rights is very important and we all cherish those goals. But it wasn't like, it wasn't like the chicoms were coming over the Hill. This was literally law enforcement actions escorting children into a school. And yet, I guess the rules are all different if it's a Republican.
- [47:29]
Richard Barris
Steve.
- [47:32]
Stephen K. Bannon
Let me ask you, it seems like with the ICE agents and even with Border patrol like Tayshet coming up there, the evidence we've seen from now 10 months of coverage of this with Ben Berkram, the great real America's Voice team, and it's getting more intense, is that it is physically impossible for ICE to actually do their jobs, to do mass interpretations, and even for law enforcement to kind of keep order. You saw this in D.C. i mean, what did they expect the president to do, Neil? Because I think you guys would tell him that, hey, unless you have the Army Reserve, unless you get to federalize the National Guard or get the Army Reserve in there, you're not going to be able to get control of these streets and particularly do the mass deportations.
- [48:15]
Neil McCabe
Yeah, well, you also have the dynamic of the local law enforcement is under the control of the local democratic machines. And so the local law enforcement is slow rolling their response. They're participating with the protesters, they're coordinating with the protesters. And so, you know, literally these guys are being treated like they're an occupying force in foreign territory. And so, you know, you could obviously the ICE agents and the Border Patrol agents, you know, and the other. I understand Secret Service is also involved. You have Park Service being thrown in. These guys, frankly, are putting on full battle rattle and they're indistinguishable from soldiers. If you look at them, I mean, they're in helmets, they're in full kit. And so, you know, it's like, what are you going to get? 6 of one, half dozen of the other. So we have to dress up our police officers like soldiers, or we can just use soldiers. It's a very tricky thing. And obviously it's politically difficult, you know, for people who are dealing with Illinois and whatnot. But if the president cannot control the military, then what are we doing here? The party's over. You know, the judges have no role in the military. It just isn't in the Constitution. There's not a lot of nuance in Commander in Chief. It seems pretty definite. And the idea that, you know, Jefferson Davis could have just filed for a restraining order against Lincoln and the judge, some judge would have said, I'm sorry, Mr. Lincoln, you have to back off. And you can't. You can't go in. And that would be crazy.
- [49:55]

Neil, hang on for a second. Taj, hang on for a second. We're going to take a short commercial break. Birch Gold the dollar is under. Think it's on analysis. The dollars dropped 25% over the last couple of years. It's one of the reasons, one many reasons. Gold's on a tear. Part of that's also central banks throughout the world are buying at record rates. Birchgold.com the end of the dollar empire. Now you get the option of actually getting it in print. Check with Philip Patrick and the team. In fact, talk to Philip Patrick about all the different methodologies. IRAs, 401ks lots of tax deferred ways.

Here's your host, Stephen K. Ban. Neil McCabe, you were in the government for the first, I think, 10 months or eight months of this second term. What would be your recommendation to the president about this situation?
- [53:48]
Neil McCabe
Well, I think that the it's my understanding that despite what the cold open said, that there is some wiggle room for the government to come back and to better explain itself to the Supreme Court. And so I think immediately, John Sauer, the solicitor general, who is excellent, he and his team, they've had tremendous success with the Supreme Court. I was really surprised it didn't go their way. They just need to figure out how to do it and then just go back into the batting cage again and take a swing. Because I think the justices, especially even the six, even the three who betrayed us, that's supposed to be our six three majority. I think those three understand that if you damage the presidency, no matter how much you might hate or resent or bitter about Trump, if you damage the presidency, then you're really taking the republic apart and it's basically going to break up into pieces. And this is something that we were worried about. If Trump lost or they certified that Harris was president, I fully expected, you know, the southern southeastern states, there's going to be like an sec nation. And they would just sort of, from Texas to Florida and up to Tennessee. Right. They would just sort of and I think what we're seeing now with California and Illinois and certainly in Oregon and these other states, these guys are saying, hey, we're not in the federal government anymore. We're not part of the United States. We're just going to do whatever we want. In 24 we saw in Maine and Colorado where they said, we're not even going to put your candidate on our ballot. That's how much we hate you. And now they're saying our National Guard doesn't listen to you, doesn't take orders from you. Last time I checked, the federal government basically finances probably 85% of those national Guard units. I mean, those are army soldiers, those are NCOs, those are officers. And they all took an oath to obey the president of the United States in the Constitution. So I don't know where we go from here, but definitely Sauer needs to go back to the Supreme Court and get this fixed.
- [55:58]
Stephen K. Bannon
Well, I think they took an oath to uphold the Constitution. I'm not sure they took an oath. I'm not sure it's in the oath.
- [56:02]
Neil McCabe
I'm sorry, Let me just straight up. The president, upon their promotion. Upon their promotion, they. When you make sergeant or lieutenant or you have to, you know, it's the President, United States, and the officers appointed above you.
- [56:16]
Stephen K. Bannon
Yes. As Commander in Chief. Where do you go, Neil? Social media. Now that you're out of the government, you're going to have a bigger role in news and TV and all that. And social media, where do people go?

Teetzel's. Eric Teetzel is going to be in from cra. He's going to be in the second hour. I think Neil's hit on his thing. I think they gave him room to come back and refile. So we'll get Teetzel to break it all down. Taj, I need a cup of coffee. It's late in the afternoon, early evening. We still got another hour to go. I need to get jacked up. Where do I go?
- [57:06]
Taj Gill
I got one more thing on the Border Patrol thing before we push the coffee. Here's a quick solution for you, Steve. This is. You know, when we used to deploy to these war zones, they always had all these crazy rules. And we figured out how to work around the rules. That's. That's every time we go somewhere. So here's a quick workaround for that. So if you can't surge the Border Patrol to the cities and. Or, I'm sorry, surge the National Guard to the cities, you surge the Border Patrol or surge the National Guard down to the border, have them backfill the Border Patrol, and then you send the Border Patrol agents up to Chicago. That way the border's still secure. You use your border, your National Guard down there where it's illegal to use them. And then you take the. The Border Patrol and you surge those guys up to Chicago in these hotspots and have them, you know, back up the ICE agents and send them up there with armored vehicles and all that. And if they want to do that in Chicago, that's fine, because they can't stop the Border Patrol because they're part of Homeland Security and ICE and Border Patrol work together. So that's an easy solution. You just got to get creative in these situations because you know that the liberals and the judges are always going to push back against Trump. So there you go.
- [58:18]
Stephen K. Bannon
Great solution. We're going to make sure that's in the hopper. Where do we go for I need, I need. Still need my cup of coffee. Where do I go?
- [58:26]

We're going to make an announcement here today on the War Room right before Christmas Eve. Ma'. Am. Hi, Steve.
- [60:13]
I think it's wishful thinking. I, you know, I appreciate everything that.
- [60:17]
Both Senator Lummis and Representative Hageman have.
- [60:20]
Done for Wyoming, but I will be staying right here at Meriwether Farms and raising my kid. I'm very happy where I am. Sorry for the let down.
