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.
Andrew Colvette
And where do people like that go.
Stephen K. Bannon
To share the big lie? MAGA Media I wish in my sou 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. Bannon. It's Tuesday the 3rd of February year overlord 2024. The markets are on fire. Take your phone out right now. Text Bannon B A N N O N at 989-898. You get from Birch Gold. No cost, no obligation. The ultimate guide to invest in gold and precious metals. Don't forget silver. These right now are bouncing all over the place. Gold is when we start off, back on a tear. But it ain't the price. It's the process of what drives value. That's what Philip, Patrick and the team are there to walk you through. We've been doing end of the Dollar Empire. Now on, I think our fifth year. I'm coming out with the eighth free installment shortly. We just approved the graphics of it. Also, there's a hard copy of End of the Dollar Empire. If you make an appropriate investment, you get the hard copy signed by yours truly, Stephen K. Bannon. People that were with us early on, I think gold was 1,100 bucks. They learned the process, think for themselves, make their own decisions when it comes to this. We're not here to sell you gold. We're here to teach you about why gold has been a hedge and now a new financial class asset. Talk to Philip Patrick and team over at Birchgold, folks. Texas 9 was a shocker to people. I got that. But, and look, people showing up. It's a special election. It was cold. It's all kind of different reasons and excuses. MAGA thinks every, you know, thinks President Trump's winning. If you watch Fox News, they're winning every day. So you don't have to vote. But there's something else quite dark going on in this country. Very, very, very scary. And you see in the streets of Minneapolis, but also in the voting box in, in New York City. And we're going to have Naomi Wolf, who's worked on this, and Jackie Toboroff to talk about the dsa, the working Family party, kind of the Red Green alliance, because they're running the deal. And I'm telling you, in Texas, you saw a little bit of that and nobody really wants to get their arms around it. I want to first go to Ben Harnwell. Ben, in Europe, we've already seen this. One of the reasons France has fallen, England's fallen, now you're going to have, you know, I keep telling people if Le Pen and Nigel don't get in there quickly and try to turn this thing around, I think London and Paris, I think you're heading towards a civil war there in a couple of years. And I think if you talk to people, people, the Tommy Robinsons of the world and others have to face this every day. They would not disagree. Your, your thoughts about is Europe fallen?
Ben Harnwell
It's falling. Morning, Steve. Morning, Caroline. Look, your introduction there is basically the, the pitch of what we do on our Friday show, our Friday battleground show every week. Last Friday, for example, we had Professor David Betts on from King's College London, the great expert on civil on on war in the modern era, who says his thesis, we've had him on the show before, this is his thesis that the UK is heading towards civil war and I asked him, even if Professor Betts, I said even if Nigel Farage gets to form a government at the next election, surely that will slake the anger somewhat of the UK and he says no, the trends in the UK Are so set towards civil war that is going to happen whether Nigel Farage is elected or not, that that's a very serious academic coming out with that prospect. And we're watching this on our Friday show on the War Room extremely closely. But it's not just the U.K. you know, Steve, you asked your question going around Europe, I'll come on to Italy perhaps in a moment if I will, and the European Union. What I would like to talk about today is Spain. This is something else that we covered on the Friday show. Now, I don't know if you know, but in Spain, the hard left government of Pedro Sanchez doesn't have the parliamentary arithmetic to do what he's going to do, which is to legalize, regularize, Steve, 500,000 illegal third world invaders. So they're going to skip parliament and get it done via royal decree. The consequences for Europe, once they have that paper, you see these people, they can then travel right across the European Union. That's the risk. What I want to cite today, this is the development since we hit this story on Friday is that the hard left Spanish politician Irene Montero, who's basically the Spanish equivalent of aoc, she says this and the response to this quite appropriately has been the mask is slipping. She says, I hope for replacement theory. I hope we can sweep this country of fascists and racists with immigrants. That's it. That's the pitch of these people, Steve. And these are your allies, right? These are your European NATO allies. As President Trump and his, his administration quite rightly said in the US National Security Strategy released in December, if Europe goes down this road of ever more immigration then Europe, these European countries will no longer be of any use to, to America as allies. There is the hard throwdown from the US Administration. It is having an effect on Europe, but possibly not the effect, Steve, that you're looking for. And the effect is increasing performative response from, from the, from your European capitals for you, from your European chances. They're starting to talk in language which is more acceptable to the US Administration, but their actions behind that. Yes, totally the opposite. Let me cite, before I get back to you, let me just cite one example. I said I'd come on to Italy. So you have Giorgia Meloni and she's out sort of there sort of preening herself, especially now sort of preparing for the Olympics later on this week. She's certainly going to be the queen bee there. And she's pushing out this line that don't worry, don't worry, Italy is going to meet the 5% commitment. We're going to President Trump is perfectly reasonable. We're going to meet this 5% defense of GDP ratio that he like us to do. What she's not telling you is that she's sneaking into an order to get that figure up from 2% to 5%. She's sneaking in a bridge between Sicily and mainline Italy, which she's calling a national security issue. She's, she's putting in the pensions of the defense sector and she's putting in the expenditure for the Coast Guard. Right, which hasn't, by the way, which hasn't succeeded in stopping anybody from coming in illegally. That's what European allies are doing, Steve. So to answer your question with all that in mind, yes, Europe is ending, it is finishing. It's not finished yet. As the end comes ever closer, nearer, you get to see a good portion of the electorate are becoming ever more stronger and hard line in their refusal to allow their thinking and their words to be shaped by a sociopathic. The question here, of course is will it be enough in time or will it be too little, too late?
Stephen K. Bannon
It's perfect. I put up the other day we didn't play in the cold open because or maybe we did, it was in Spanish with a subtitle. But the politician, the AOC of Spain, she just said it out loud. She goes, we have more in common with the ill, with the migrants we're going to let in from North Africa than we have with the right wing and the conservatives in this country. And yes, it is replacement theory and we are replacing you, Dave Bryan. And I said when I saw that that's exactly what they're telling you in Minneapolis. That's exactly what Mandami is telling you. The only reason they won't say it is that will then reinforce what they've said is a right wing conspiracy theory and who they're replacing essentially in the United States. They're trying to, and you're starting to hear voices come up and say this is first off African Americans, African American citizens, Hispanic American citizens. They want to replace those folks who have voted for Trump and now starting to shift to Trump to a more malleable population. Dave Brat, your thoughts on that, sir?
Dave Brat
Yeah, Harnwell does a great job of giving the overview there. I think some famous economist Keynes or somebody said, you Know, like it or not, two philosophers have shaped the world we live in today. Karl Marx under communism and Adam Smith under freedom. Roughly speaking. And roughly speaking, also there, Adam Smith wasn't exactly Orthodox, but it's basically the competition between a society framed around the Judeo Christian tradition, Western Europe, Christianity, of course, in Adam Smith, Scotland versus Marxist China and Russia, and Communist atheism. And so if you follow that line of thought today, how are we doing? Well, there's no more systematic thought. Right. There's all sorts of news articles out there today about the psychic pain people are feeling, the anxiety, the tectonic plates shifting in the economy due to artificial intelligence. And so people are high on the nerves right now. Why is that? Another reason is because people don't have any of the comfortable systems of thought in their mind anymore. That helps to anchor you in a world of chaos, right? Of course, God is the slayer of chaos, right in the beginning of the Bible, in Genesis. But in our grand traditions right now, the great Protestant and evangelical traditions, we don't have systematic thinkers anymore, systematic theology and philosophy, as you had in Luther and Calvin. Now you've got some crazy evangelical nuts out there just making stuff up. On the Catholic front, you got a bunch of sentimental priests here and there doing NGO work instead of providing systematic accounts of the gospel and the religion. On the Jewish front, you got rabbis who are detached and not tethered anymore to the Torah and to the Old Testament scripture and to God. Very few theologians these days referring to God at all in any sphere. And so it's no wonder when you lose those kind of things, right? Harv was founded, you know, back in 1640. Their motto was Truth for Christ and church for a couple hundred years that is no longer to be found. And so we are living in very chaotic times, as Harnwell said, it'll be very hard, very, very hard, difficult to put that genie back in the bottle. It's still possible. We can still do it. The church is still there. 85% of the people are still there on certain issues we've been covering all morning. And it's. They need to act. If they don't act, we're going to lose it all.
Stephen K. Bannon
Well, let's talk about Bren before I go to Jackie and Naomi Ben on this. You know, he does the traditional evangelical and Catholicism on Wednesday. On Friday, he does turn it over to talk about what's happening in Europe and this revolution is coming. When you have a guy at King's College that's a tenured professor and one of the top thinkers in this. And he goes, not if Nigel Shiraz against. If reform comes in, which is historic to beat labor and particularly the Tories haven't done it in 250 years. It's just slowing it down. It's not going to change it. You're going to have a civil war. And if you've ever studied English history, when they have civil wars like under Cromwell, it gets a little nasty. Yeah, no, you're going to a civil war. That type of talk from academicians has to be an alarm to people here in the United States. We're heading down this path unless we stop it now.
Caroline Wrenn
Ma', am, I was just in London and there was no more depressed population than the uk I mean, everyone I talked to was just so down on their own country. And in fact, I was having dinner with a couple of very liberal attorneys that I'd had dinner two years ago, and when I dinner with them two years ago, they can't stand Nigel Farage. He has no chance this time around. Just a couple of weeks ago, they said, caroline, it's no longer a question of if Nigel Farage will be Prime Minister, it's when. And they were actually voting for him. But they did say to me, they said, look, like we're just. We give up. Like, we're just going to support Nigel because he's the only one at least talking about new ideas of breaking the system. However, we're probably going to move and leave. They're all fleeing to Gulf Arab states. And they said, even if he gets in, I don't think he can fix it. Our country's gone. So I don't really think there is going to be civil war because I think anyone you think of the surrender, I think it's surrendered. I think it's gone. I hope Nigel gets in and I hope he can do what he can. But I'm telling you, it was the most depressing place that I've been. And I just went to Davos, and that was a pretty depressing place as well.
Stephen K. Bannon
Talk to me about Davos.
Ben Harnwell
Davos.
Stephen K. Bannon
You were there with the president's contingent. You saw the whole thing. President dropping the hair. I said, for the globalist. They said it was the, you know, they. They threw themselves on the fire. It was fascism. It was the Nazis coming for MAGA and globalist populist nationalists throughout the world. It was Pericles at Athens.
Caroline Wrenn
You know, Davos. I've always railed against that conference and going to things like that. But this time I did want to see President Trump in all of his glory speak and I will say that he just all the European nations and the people there from Europe were in such panic and he had such control President Trump did of that conference that that was neat to see. But otherwise just the trajectory of Europe is so terrible. I mean they're just but that conference.
Stephen K. Bannon
The globalists is what brought this problem to England and the elites and the conservatives look the other way. You can't be controlled opposition. This is the reason Texas is so important right now. It's why you're going to have to address New York City. You cannot just turn over the financial capital of the world to a Ugandan Marxist jihadist. And that's what you've done. And don't think these people don't have power and don't think they're just going to willingly turn it back. Anyway. We're going to get to Jackie Torvo is going to join us. Naomi Wolf They've been facing this every day. They're going to give us a street level view. This is what Caught Senate District 9 by total surprise. Birch Gold 95 oh Birch Gold.

Stephen K. Bannon
Here's your host, Stephen K. Ban. I think for right now, Columbia is going to be closed press. So we'll keep you up to date on that. 2:00 clock today, the Sri A free caucus is going to have their initial press conference. We'll cover that. Natalie's going to take the helm at five. I'm going to do War Room Texas. Natalie's going to be here at 5 with us. Before I get to Jackie and Naomi, you just dropped a bombshell that the engine room picked up. You said that the elites, many of the elites, you know, in London are just thrown in the towel and saying, I can't fight this. I'm not going to stick around and fight it. I'm going to the Gulf Emirates. I'm going to Dubai.
Caroline Wrenn
Yeah, they can't. I mean, the, the taxation there is absolutely out of control. And they're like, screw it, I'm not. You can't make money in London. There's no. This was one of the greatest, you know, financial cities in the world. And if you make any money, you get taxed on it. And even then, the economy is so horrible there that it's pretty difficult to even make money. And so a lot of them are just saying, screw it, I'm gonna, I'm gonna move to Dubai. Some are telling me they're moving to Istanbul. But this was money people, too. I was amazed. Every taxi driver that I talked to, every waiter was just what. All they talked about was Nigel Farage. Like, it was just, he just dominates all conversation over there, which is, which is great and important. But they also, like, the taxi drivers wanted to leave and were just horrified by what their city had become. And so it was. I was really sad leaving there because London, you know, I grew up going over there. I thought it was wonderful. It was one of our great cities in the world. But it is just a depressing, depressing place. Place.
Stephen K. Bannon
We're going to get back to Ben on that in a moment. Jackie Torporos joins us. Jackie. And I've got Naomi to Follow you. I don't think, you know, being in Texas, this, The Senate District 9, you know, the Trump voters didn't show up. They think he's doing too good, or they're upset that he's not doing enough, whatever. The weather was cold, but I think what they're missing is because this guy, there's tons of outside dark money, but his own campaign, I think he only had $200,000. This was pure. He tried to pretend he's a moderate, but this is dsa Working Families Party, which has already got a foothold in Houston. People are not ready throughout the rest of the country. They just think the Mondami effect is New York City alone. Can you walk us through how pervasive and what they actually did to take control of New York City?
Jackie Toboroff
Yeah. Before we even get to that in 2026, I mean, there are less deaths linked to ICE than there are to Zoran Mandani's policies. 16 people are dead because of this new city winter storm. Thirteen of them froze to death. This goes back to Zora Mandani's policies. He refused to let NYPD disband and destroy these encampments. This is part of his whole, you know, Islamist socialist utopia. And bringing forward the revolution, which is exactly what dsa, Democratic Socialists of America is looking to do. Bring the revolution and destroy specifically the financial capital of the universe, which is New York City and really Manhattan.
Stephen K. Bannon
But it sounds like. I noticed that the mainstream media hasn't really covered the 16 deaths. What he's been in. He's been in office 30 days, 16 deaths because he won't break up the camps. Quite frankly, guys like Mondame, they don't care. That's just giving it up for the revolution. Right. That's just the natural process. You're going to. You're going to lose some people and they look the other way. It doesn't face him in the least. So the point, to me, the point is that the media is not going to be a watchdog in him. Right. Right now, I think they're building momentum. He's not. They just. We saw some polls. He's not losing favorability. I think he's up plus 50 in favorability in the city itself. So he's not losing momentum on this. He's only gaining momentum is not. You can see what happened in Texas and throughout the country. They intend to run, to have the energy of the tea party in 2010 to basically replace Donald Trump. This is not Nancy Pelosi in 2018. There's something much deeper here that's going on.
Jackie Toboroff
Jackie, I think to your point, we are seeing what has happened when foreigners impact our elections here in America. So Zoram Mandani was very much installed by foreigners both here and abroad. He received over 160 different campaign contributions of foreign cash. We don't even know if he ever gave it back. But I mean, the truth of the matter is he did very well with foreigners versus American born voters. I believe it was overwhelmingly foreigners that voted for him. There are certain areas in Queens that are over 75% immigrant. So when you look at the people who he captured, it's really new Americans. And the rest of the country should beware because this is what DSA is doing. And then they run these candidates like Zoram Andani and these radicals who are anti America on the Working Family Party line. DSA is really the activist center. It's the get out the vote machine. And then you run on the Working Families Party line. And both the DSA and the Working Families Party line, they're anti America. They are, they're about bringing the revolution.
Stephen K. Bannon
Now they kind of hide that because you listen to all the. Before he was. The way they're gonna govern is like the Bolsheviks. Beforehand, they talked about democracy. Right. When they were a small minority party. But you did listen to all the hours of it. And what he did is really take the populist, nationalist, some of Trump's stuff and really talked about, about, you know, very, you know, because he had all those funny videos walking through grocery stores about affordability, getting groceries down free buses, et cetera. He wasn't talking a revolution. It wasn't like the night he won that you saw the mask come off and he's telling Trump, are you listening? Right? You saw the brutality of this guy.
Caroline Wrenn
Yeah, he is incredibly skilled. What I would say is as soon as, as soon as he, you know, won that primary, actually, I guess this was even before when he started really getting national attention. You started listening to his interviews. He was very disciplined in what he talked about. And he talked about it was, it was populism talking points. Now I'm very curious to see how he actually governs. And even if he tries to enact some of these policies, there's no way they're even gonna be successful. But his rhetoric during that time was extremely disciplined and extremely, at some points, I even told you, I'm like, I can't tell if I'm listening to Steve Bannon or Mamdani. And it was because that was a very calculated, coordinated thing that he was doing there. And we have to be very careful in watching what he's doing. I think he's gonna be similar to what Sarah Palin was for us in 2010. And getting the turnout. He's going to be the one that they send around as their number one person to drive out turnout all around the country outside of New York City. But I'm terrified for New York City. But I think we're about to see a lot of him on the road.
Stephen K. Bannon
Naomi, I want to bring you this conversation. You actually stood. You tried to fight this at the time. I think you went to the boroughs and came up with candidates both at the city council level, at the local level that could fight this. What was that like? And how powerful is this DSA working family parties combination?
Naomi Wolf
Well, first, I just want to, like, echo what these ladies have said together. This is a fantastic analysis of what's happened in New York. And you're right. I spent six months often on this show trying to warn people what was coming at New York. And that, as you point out, it's not just going to impact New York. It's really a model for what they're going to do to the rest of the country. I would add that I don't think that the decisions that Mamdani is making are just authentic, organic. I'm a Marxist. I want the revolution. I think it's a whole new thing we've never seen before. Well, we saw it with the Biden administration. In other words, I think a lot of what he's doing is what China, I believe, did, or the people running Biden did with the Biden administration, which was demonstrate the humiliation, a theater of humiliation for the whole country and the White House and Congress. Like all of these dramatic, florid demonstrations of bizarre appointees or fetishists or people who stole luggage. It was all very deliberately chosen to narrate to the world that the great United States had fallen and was a laughingstock, and that was effective. And so I think the same people with the same playbook are kind of running Mamdani. And so we're getting a theater of humiliation for this great financial capital of the United States, New York City. I don't think it's a mistake that, you know, eight days after a big storm, there's still piles of trash attracting rodents, impassable mountains of filthy snow, you know, that disabled people can't get past, elderly people can't cross, slowing down ambulances, making a really dangerous as well as just humiliating spectacle of this great city. And its burrows. But also, if you look at his appointees, Steve, they're very deliberately chosen for the kinds of news stories that then follow. C. Weaver, who this young woman chosen to be a tenants advocate who said basically, you know, white people shouldn't own real estate and real estate is a crime and property is theft. You know, that's very deliberate to message New York has fallen, that this great engine of wealth through real estate is no longer stable. More recently, he appointed my son Linus, a rapper turned activist for a committee on public safety. My son Lennon was an armed robber who did time for armed robbery and some of the most kind of destabilizing forms of crime. He robbed taxi drivers. So it's like this. And over and over again. The woman who had to step aside because her posts about Jews were so inflammatory and hateful and anti Semitic and it's, you know, and these dead homeless people, I don't think this is an accident. You know, it's very predictable. If you've got single digit weather for a week and you're like, don't break up the homeless camps. People are going to die. We know this. Eric Adams was on social media, the former mayor saying, this is predictable. Are you an idiot? It's all a theater of. And it's 30 days in, God knows what's ahead for us, demonstrating that we are broken. We're at the mercy of this Islamist Marxist. And this is just the beginning.
Stephen K. Bannon
Hang on a second. I'm gonna go to commercial break, but I want to come back for this theory of humiliation. I made a comment last week on in Minnesota when Waltz called out the National Guard, right, to protect the rioters from the ICE agents, from President Trump's, from the country's ICE agents. He, the first day he called him out, he put them in the yellow vest of the sanitation department and had them serve the rioters coffee and donuts on that first Saturday. This, I said at the time, this is the exact same thing they did in the Cultural Revolution. The kids in the Cultural Revolution, to humiliate their elders, to humiliate their, you know, their teachers. They put the dunce cap on, right? This is part of a Marxist revolution. This is what Marxists do. They've done it since the French Revolution. They did in the Bolsheviks revolution. They did it in the communist revolution, the CCP's revolution in China. It is a theater of humiliation. It's to tell you the old ways are destroyed and if you stick by the old ways, we will humiliate you. That is what's Coming to the United States. That's the lesson to learn in Texas 9. The fight is going to be nationwide. Do not think. As we said over and over again. And Jackie Tovorov and Naomi Walter Wolf warned you and warned you and warned you. What happens in New York doesn't stay in New York. It's going to spread throughout this nation. We're going to take a short commercial break back for the Theater of Humiliation next. Here's your host, Stephen K. Ban. To make you feel good, folks, breaking news. Caroline Run.
Caroline Wrenn
I was just reading about how it seems that Republicans have backed down on the SAVE act and are going to not put it forward.
Stephen K. Bannon
Try to close this situation with not shutting down the government, with coughing up the SAVE act, not putting it in a vote. We'll have more about that this afternoon. Jackie Toboroff, you and I have talked the city, this ritual of humiliation for New York. The snow is 9ft high, the trash is everywhere. The garbage not picked up. Rodents, rats everywhere. We're back to the worst of the worst. Your thoughts, Mike?
Podcast Announcer
Ma'?
Andrew Colvette
Am?
Jackie Toboroff
Yeah. I think it's intentional. It's to make it, make it look like we're living in Gaza. I mean, the place is disgusting. If you were elderly, if you were handicapped, if you are a mom pushing a stroller, you are out of luck. The streets, to Naomi's point, you cannot, you can't access sidewalks. It's been eight days, nine days. At this point, it seems very intentional. It seems like they are actually burying cars with snow. The whole thing makes no sense unless you start to think they don't want people going to work. They don't want people to enjoy and have a nice quality of life. Under Rudy Giuliani, they arrested homeless people. They broke up the encampments. They carted this stuff away. You lived in Manhattan. You lived in New York City. It was cosmopolitan. It's a dump. It's embarrassing. It's a dump. I was listening to Carolyn Wren. Why would people who have money stay in New York City at this point? Why don't they go to Istanbul or Dubai? Why would they stay here?
Stephen K. Bannon
Well, they're going to Palm beach is where they're going. Jackie, where do people get onto your site and where they go for social media? Because you are on fire, ma'.
Caroline Wrenn
Am.
Jackie Toboroff
Thank you. Please go to my substack. It is Super Moms activated and my Instagram is Jacqueline for nyc. That is Jac. Q U E L I N E F O R N Y C. I agree also with Naomi Wolf. Brilliant humiliation.
Stephen K. Bannon
Brilliant Naomi. Naomi, I just want. Before you let you bounce, we're gonna have you back on this topic. You went around, took six months, your life, and you went around and talked to all the elite, all the same elite that's gonna leave New York City and head to Palm beach and take all the hedge funds down there. That's their equivalent of London. The cities of London's elite leaving for Dubai and Istanbul because they're gonna surrender. They're not gonna fight. Did you get any traction at all when you warned the elites that this was gonna happen?
Naomi Wolf
None. I was shocked. I mean, you know, I come from a background being a Democratic political consultant, and we don't sit around like that. You know, like, if there's a huge danger coming at us, we mobilize. You know, we network. And I was astonished that people whose interests were going to be torpedoed by this obvious Marxist, Islamist, you know, weren't defending their own interests the way they would have Even, I think, 20 years ago in old New York, that the, you know, the moneyed interests would have mobilized in their own defense. I don't understand the paralysis of, and I would say kind of nefariousness of the elite Republican establishment in relation to what was going on. I don't understand how they ignored what a big news story it was that you had, you know, half a dozen black and Hispanic, young, telegenic, inspiring candidates from the community, and they let that go. But.
Stephen K. Bannon
Two times in history, this happened. The French Revolution. The aristocracy never took it, Never took it seriously until they were overwhelmed. And the Romanovs and the aristocracy in Russia never took it seriously until they were overwhelmed. When they started standing against the wall or the guillotine, that's when they realized it was real. They laughed it off. They joked it. They laughed. This thing's happened twice before, right? With the French Revolution and the Bolsheviks. And both times, the people that ran the deal, the people that were the elites, laughed at all. And then when they found out they couldn't run, that's when they got stood up against the wall and shot. Or they had a guillotine. Finish the deal. So trust me, these are radical Marxist jihadists. These people are dead serious. And people should look at Texas 9. This thing's going to spread throughout the country. You're not going. You should be very afraid. You're not going to run from this. You have to confront it, and we have to confront it now. Naomi, I'm going to have you back on. Where do people go? To your social media and your media. Social site. Ma'. Am because you were Cassandra on this deal.
Andrew Colvette
Good.
Naomi Wolf
But thank you. Yeah. Go to substack. My substack is outspoken and over at Daily Clout. And thank you, posse, as always for everything. Let's, let's get this done. It's the, you know, as New York goes, so goes America. It's so true. We've got to protect it.
Stephen K. Bannon
Thank you, ma'.
Naomi Wolf
Am.
Stephen K. Bannon
Appreciate you. On a lighter note, or I guess a counter revolutionary note, we're gonna. We got Andrew Colvette from Turning Point and the host of the co of the great Charlie Kirk show that follows us every day. Andrew, last night we found out in working through with you guys that Real America's Voice is going to cover. You guys are doing an alternative halftime show. Can you walk that through us and how we can follow this and how we can see who the acts are?
Andrew Colvette
Yeah, absolutely, Steve. We've got, I mean, a great, great show. And I'm going to bring it up just so I don't get any of the details wrong here because there's a lot of moving pieces here. But yeah, we had this idea, actually the Jack Posobic help inspired it. Steve, I think you'll remember that there was just such a backlash to some of the acts and the approach that the other guys. Steve, I gotta be careful with the language I use here. Cause we are going up against the pro football machine and there was such a huge backlash against kind of the anti American, anti patriotism, anti ice angle that was coming out of that. There was just this huge vacuum that was created and, and I was talking with Jack about it actually. Charlie had this great knack during these halftime shows of always going viral, you know, sometimes good, sometimes bad. But he was always commenting on it because he was so passionate about winning back culture. He wanted to play in the game of culture, of actually taking back the hearts and minds of the next generation. And this is what this is all about. It's a huge, huge opportunity for us to just do exactly that and offer America what it wants. That's what we could feel. You could feel it in the ether. You could feel it in the, in the air that people wanted an alternative. So we stepped in and we said, hey, we'll throw our name in the hat. And we announced our lineup yesterday. Obviously we got Kid Rock. Everybody loves and knows Kid Rock. Funny story here, Steve. We're doing the press release and Kid Rock, we had all his Grammy nominations and wins next to his name. And he shot back, he said, I don't want to be associated with the Grammys at all. If you're gonna put me next to anything, I want the Waffle House legend award winner next to my name. So that's what we did in the press least. So we stripped the Grammys out of the Kid Rock mention. But also, you know, of course we have Brantley Gilbert Lee Bryce and Gabby Barrett. So it's a massive, massive lineup. Lots of big, huge songs. And you know, instead of trying to go one to one and do a big stadium, by the way, I'm going to have a story at the end of this Steve on the other side. So please, please, let's, let's do this again when we're, we're on the other side of this huge event. Because I will tell you, you're going up against the cabal. You're going up against a mafiosa kind of machine here. So some of the stadiums weren't willing to kind of even get involved because they didn't want to upset certain people. And so we just decided, you know, they've got this huge stadium situation. Everything's super far away. It's very, it's not intimate. It's not up close close. And the guy's gonna be maybe wearing dresses and they're gonna be, you know, celebrating queer identity and fighting ice and all this stuff. So we just thought, listen, let's do a made for TV concert. Let's do a actual intimate, high octane, bringing huge production value. But in a close space. It'll be a live audience. We're talking hundreds, not thousands, but it's gonna be absolutely immersive. Right? So our production team has done an amazing job. I've seen all the renderings, I've seen all the, the like the pre production. It is incredible. Visually stunning, high octane. And so, and all the artists are going to be doing special stuff, special tributes. Some of the best songs, the best known songs. People will be able to sing along. So it's all around Steve. I could not be happier. And yesterday, Kid Rock, the, the show Turning Point. We're all trending number one on X. So this might be a David and Goliath situation, but I like our chances.
Stephen K. Bannon
No. And what's amazing about it, we're going to stream it live. Real America's voice will have it. You guys will have it also, I think all the warnings people gave and the reason you and Bassobic and others start working this and President Trump is in front. You saw it at the Grammys. I mean, at the Grammys, you saw just the ice out anti American, all of it. And it really, I think pays off all the work you guys have done. Of course it's a cabal with the NFL if you, if you, you know, we fortunate enough to get a stadium for Charlie's memorial service, but they're not going to let you guys have one for doing an alternative to the halftime show which they always try to make as a cultural touchstone. And this is why I think it's so important that people on the right try to do it. How do we get to this? Now this is going to be at. So it's no set time, although I think the game starts at 6:30 Eastern Time. So it should be around 8, 8:30 that time. And it's going to be for 30 minutes when you start.
Andrew Colvette
Andrew, that's to going correct? Yeah, that's correct, Steve. So yeah, it's kind of a floating time, you know, based on the way that the game goes. And you know what they typically do is they do some analysis of the game, some highlights, then they go to the halftime show. So basically as soon as the action stops, switch over, come, you can go right here. Real America's Voice. If you're watching this show, this is the place to check out the halftime show. Rob and Parker have been amazing. They were right in at the beginning, Steve. As soon as we announced that we were doing this, I got the call from them and they just said, hey, how can we support you? We want to take the program. So that's huge. So you can do that right here. Obviously if you're more of a streamer, you can check it out on rumble, YouTube X. We'll have it on all the socials so you can do it there. There's some other people that really want to be involved. Maybe we'll, maybe we'll do that. There's only so many licenses you can do when you're working with the publishing companies that own the rights to these songs.
Public Investing Sponsor
So.
Andrew Colvette
So we are in a bit of a legal issue. But that's what's so great about Real America's voice. They got in early, they saw the vision early, supported us early. So this will be the place to watch it. Steve. Absolutely. But like I said, if you're more of a social guy, you can go stream it online as well. But definitely switch over and it's gonna be act after act after act and then there's big culmination. I don't wanna give too much away, Steve, but every single artist has been, how do we make this special? How do we Take this over the top. How do we make it so the whole family can tune in? Right. If you don't want to have your kids, if you gathered your family together for the big game and you don't want your kids to have to celebrate queer identities and dresses and hate on law enforcement, then you're going to have an opportunity to have something that you know you can get behind. That's going to celebrate America, that's going to celebrate faith, family and everything that should be uniting this great and wonderful republic that we all love so much. So we feel like Charlie would be really proud and would really love this, this opportunity and this effort that we put together.
Stephen K. Bannon
So Robin Parker, Sig want to thank Real America's Voice, of course, the whole Turning Point crew and Charlie would be very proud of what you guys have done. This is not easy to execute. That's why we need everybody to tune in at halftime. And remember the halftime is always double what it is in a normal pro game because all these festivities at the the queer identity and anti American ice out over at the NFL, but we're going to watch it here in Real America's Voice. Andrew, your show follows ours as it has for I guess last four or five years. The Charl Kirk show, you the co host. What's your social media. Where do people go to find out more about this, sir?
Andrew Colvette
Yeah, absolutely. We've been posting up a storm here. Pete Hegseth Secretary War has been tweeting about it. J.D. vance, Don Jr. So I've been sharing all those links as they come through americashalftimeshow.com, you can learn more there if you want to check out and make sure you know exactly where to stream it. My X handle is ndrewcolvet. Just first and last name and you can check out all the information there. And we're gonn to be we're we got a lot more coming up this week and I think Kid Rock's actually going be dropping an op ed tomorrow kind of breaking down why this was so important for him to be a part of and like I said, the, the, the acts, the artists, the performers couldn't have been more amazing in this. I it's if you want hope for, for the future, listen to these guys. They've put their heart and soul into this performance. Steve, it's going to be epic.
Stephen K. Bannon
Amazing. Thank you. Andrew Kovet. We'll toss to you in a few minutes. Go get ready for the show. Great job on the Charlie Kirk show, by the way. Your thoughts as we go to commercial break about doing this alternative. I mean, this is a big effort. Of course they get that the NFL always gets the best acts and they promote it like crazy. We're doing an alternative. Your thoughts?
Caroline Wrenn
I don't even know when the super bowl is or who is playing. So I, I, unfortunately, I will definitely watch this halftime show if someone could at least tell me the date of when this is happening. But otherwise, I am excited. This is, this is absolutely something Charlie would want. Charlie was on the forefront of fighting the cultural battle in this country. Whoever Bad Bunny is, I never even heard of him until a couple weeks ago. And I looked him up. He's seems awful. And so Godspeed to everyone watching.
Stephen K. Bannon
Short commercial break. We're turning the War Room in just a moment. Here's your host, Stephen K. Ban. Cameron Kinsey, who was in the Trump White House in the first term, joins us from Tax Network usa. I know it's probably not a great day to talk to people, but you gotta pay your taxes. But you gotta pay your taxes. Scott Besant's in charge now. I know there's probably a gap between the bid in the ass of what you think you owe and what the IRS thinks. Cameron, tell me about the free assessment. This is critical for War Room Posse members only. A free assessment of actually where you stand. Where do they go, Cameron?
Podcast Announcer
Yes. Well, thanks so much for having me on, Steve. I think last time we were talking, the IRS was shut down. They were doing their software software update. Now tax season is in full swing. We've got the April 15 deadline coming up very soon. And that's why the War Room Posse, it's so important to know about Tax Network usa. We're one of the nation's leading tax relief firms. We help everyday Americans like you, business owners fight back against aggressive IRS enforcement. So whether you're dealing with those unfiled returns, mounting penalties, collections underway, we have a robust team of CPAs, licensed attorneys, even former IRS agents who just know the tax code code inside and out. They've probably seen a case like yours and they know exactly how to handle it. Uh, we're just standing against these weaponized institutions. No matter the administration. We're just here to help. So if you're struggling with that tax debt, the worst thing you can do right now during this tax season is wait. I know it's super intimidating, Steve. We talk about it all the time. People stuff those letters in a drawer. They don't want to address this problem. But unfortunately, that does make it worse and it gives The IRS more power. But like Steve noted, everybody, the war room posse. We had so many people calling in the last time I saw you, Steve, about this running offer that we have. So this free discovery call, what does this mean? If you are uncertain about where you stand with the irs, we can do a free research and discovery call with the IRS through Tax Network usa. And so here's why that matters. If you owe money, you're behind, behind. You have no idea what the IRS has on you and you don't know if they have assigned an agent yet. That research and discovery, normally it's something that we do. After that you've signed on as a client usually costs hundreds if not thousands of dollars because we're dealing with the IRS directly on your behalf. But we're still running this promotion for our war room posse. I know so many of you have taken full advantage of this and thank you because it's making our job a lot easier, making sure that you're getting ahead of of this. That way we know how to properly approach your case. So if you are interested in that still, you can just fill out a quick form tnusa.com/bannon you can fill out a form online. Or if you want to call one of our agents directly, that's pretty easy as well. It's a short phone call, completely free consultation. You can call 1-800-958-1000 again, that's 1-800-958-13. Say that you're a part of the war room Posse too. We want to take special care of you guys. You guys have been so good to us over the years. Steve, we love what you're doing. You're a patriot and you're a fighter. So we want to help everybody who's watching this program right now and fight to get the best possible outcome for you guys.
Stephen K. Bannon

Dave Brat
Yeah, well, in summary, you know, I kind of give the downside to Western Civ and the collapse of faith and systematic thought across the board. But the good news is, look at that turning point. Model the kids in this country, right? They got the senior folks funding them, and we need to utilize these kids. These kids have millions of followers. They know how to make stuff go viral. Having a hard time with your church group or your Republican party? Breakfast only has 30 people, et cetera. Your own NGOs on the Conservative side use the young kids, get stuff to go viral and beat the bad bunny. Let's go.

Host: Stephen K. Bannon
Guests/Contributors: Ben Harnwell, Dave Brat, Caroline Glick, Jackie Toboroff, Naomi Wolf, Andrew Colvette
This episode of The War Room with Stephen K. Bannon delivers a wide-ranging, high-octane discussion on pressing political and cultural crises across the US and Europe. Focused on themes of societal upheaval, elite disenchantment, political realignment, and what the hosts call a "theater of humiliation" overtaking major Western cities, the conversation forecasts dire consequences if current trends persist. With frequent references to historical revolutions and warnings about the rise of Marxist and socialist influences, the episode carries a sense of urgent alarm about Western civilization's trajectory, especially as embodied in current events in London, New York, and Texas.

For listeners seeking analysis of political, economic, and cultural flashpoints from an unapologetically populist-nationalist, anti-globalist perspective, this episode is a concentrated dose, full of alarm bells, culture war strategies, and warnings from both history and current events.
