Religious Speaker/Priest
Father, will you lift up his wife Erica, his children, his family and friends? Would you surround them with your comfort and peace? Would you hold them close in this time of grief and give them strength that only you can provide? Your Word reminds us in Psalm 34:18 the Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. Be that refuge and strength for them now. Lord and Lord, we thank thank you for all those who have come out tonight to honor him, many who have traveled far, especially our special guests who took from their busy schedules to honor Charlie. Lord, may everyone here tonight be lifted up and encouraged by this gathering. We pray that this memorial will run smoothly, become a real source of comfort to those here in person and watching online. And most of all, may I honor Charlie's memory, bring hope to his family and friends and may his life and testimony stir up us to live with the same kind of bold faith, courage to speak truth and commitment to what's right, just like he did. Lord, we know that he would want one message to come from this event and that would be that those who do not know you as a personal savior would draw to him and call on Him. Now he wants to bring those to him. Lord, we know that the wages of sin are death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. That was Charlie's hope that he carried every day the good news that no matter what our past, forgiveness and eternal life are offered freely through Christ. Lord, we know that Charlie knew that this life is precious and often shorter than we expect. And that's why he lived with urgency to point others toward what mattered most, a real and personal relationship with Jesus Christ. As Charlie himself said, give your life to Jesus and he will rescue you. As he reminded us, our hope is not talking about politics or success or even the good that we can do. It's only found in Jesus Christ and that hope is available to all tonight. Charlie once said recently, Jesus defeated death so that we can live. So tonight, as we honor Charlie's memory, may we also take heart to the message of his life. Let's choose to walk with that same courage, to love people deeply, to stand boldly for truth. And most importantly, Lord, would we anchor our lives on you. And it's your Son's holy name, we pray. Amen.

In the book of Corinthians, Paul said, therefore we are always of good courage and know that while we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord. We are of good courage, I say, and prefer to rather be absent from the body and be home with the Lord. Ultimately, for every one of us.

Religious Speaker/Priest
Lord, we're thankful for the life of Charlie as we close this memorial service, a service of praise and testimony to his life. We honor the life and legacy of our brother. Charlie often said that what he wanted to be remembered for was his courage and his faith. And, Lord, you've answered those requests. And all those that knew him, they knew exactly that's how he lived. He faced life with boldness. He anchored his hope in Jesus Christ. His courage wasn't just about speaking truth or standing for what's right, but it flowed from a deeper faith and knowledge in you. So, Lord, we ask that, as we conclude now, you would bless those that are here. If there are some that have never found this Jesus and this friend have not known the relationship that Charlie knew with his Savior. Would you allow them to find that Jesus tonight, to accept into their heart a savior? A savior who died for them, who came to this earth as a man, lived perfectly, died. Rose was buried, Rose again. And on the third day, Lord, he ascended. Lord, we're thankful that Charlie is now with his Savior. We're thankful that his. His time is not done. His testimony and his impact will go on. Lord. So if there are those here that have even strained from you, would you bring them back to you? Charlie would want that. He would want the glory to be back to Savior. As we go out now, Lord, will we never forget his impact? May we never forget the life that he lived. And may we take the courage. May we fight the fight like Charlie did. May we pick up the cross and may we lead the charge. Lord, we ask these things of you. Bless us now. Give us safety as we go home. Thank you for allowing us to meet together. Thank you for your son. And it's in his name we pray. Amen. Thank you all.

This is you. This is your sister, your wife, your daughter. But this right here is you. This is your sister, your wife, your daughter. This is you. This is your sister, your wife, your daughter. But this is you. And this is their reaction when you are killed. This is the joy they feel when your sister is raped, when your children are castrated, brainwashed to hate you. This is their ecstasy. When the floor of the subway car is awash in your blood. This is you. Make no mistake. That is a symbol. That is you. But this won't last long. They can't help themselves because they're so ugly and so low that the only joy they can experience, the only good that they can envision is to take something beautiful or innocent down to their level. And when they can't do it, the next best thing is blood. This is Charlie's family. And these are his children who will never be able to hug their dad and grow up with a murdered father. And these are the people who smugly revel in this. And they won't stop with just Charlie. The boats are burned. There's nobody coming to help. The barbarians are at the gate. This is the fall of ancient Rome that we are living through currently. And what happens in the next two weeks is going to determine the future of mankind. That's not hyperbole. That's just how it is.

Plan on investigating.
Steve Bannon
We'll see. We'll be announcing. They're already under investigation. You know, they're already under major investigation. A lot of the people that you would tradition shulisa are on the left. You're already already under investigated. This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies. Cause we're going medieval on these people. There's not got a free shot on 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 gonna stop it. It's going to happen. And where do people like that go to share the maga media I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.

1. It's Monday the 15th of September in the year of our lower 2025. Massive developments in the search for the assassin. And the biggest development, it's not just being treated as it has been by many of the law, many of the law enforcement agencies as just a simple murder. It is not a simple murder. It is much deeper and more vast than that. Including an entire network of terrorists, both domestic and international, probably with international financing. And that as President Trump said. And the New York Post has a major story. We're now getting down to it, of course the prayer vigil last night, absolutely magnificent. I want to thank the Turning Point team for putting it on. It was incredible. In 24 hours. Also real America's Voice coverage. Just absolutely incredible. The entire thing top to bottom. And the most important impressive things there with the interviews with the folks going into the Kennedy center is absolutely, absolutely, absolutely stunning. Just the thought of the impact and the understanding of the task and purpose of Charlie Kirk's life. We're gonna take a short commercial break. We're gonna return with a show that I commit to you will be on.

Narrator/News Intro
Of the movement as we remember Charlie Kirk. I think, of course it's important to note that one of his main missions was to engage with and bring younger folks, folks over to the conservative side of the aisle. And based upon the results of the last presidential election, I think we can say he was quite successful in doing so. What are we talking about? Well, let's take a look at 18 to 24 year olds who voted for Donald Trump, that is voters under the age of 25. Look at this. In 2016, it was just 34%. Jump ahead to 2020, it was just 31%. But look, in this past presidential election in 2024, Donald Trump's percentage of voters under the age of 24 jumped all the way up to 43% of the vote. Indeed, when you compare his percentage of the vote with that of Kamala Harris and we look at the margin, we can say that Trump had the best performance for any Republican nominee for president this entire century among voters under the age of 25. Now when we dig into the numbers a little bit deeper, we can see even more of the influence of Charlie Kirk. What are we talking about? Well, let's take a look at males under the age of 25, that is age 18 to 24 years old, year old males, presidential margin, you go back to 2016. Hillary Clinton easily won that vote by 11 points. You jump ahead to 2020, you can see Joe Biden nearly doubled Clinton's margin, won it by an even larger margin. Look at this, a 20 point win for Joe Biden. But look at this past presidential election. Donald Trump actually won males under the age of 25. He won them by three points and in doing so, became the first Republican nominee for president to win males under the age of 25 this entire century. Now, one of the reasons that Donald Trump was so successful among younger voters was because of advice given to him by Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk said, bypass the traditional media, go straight on the podcast, talk to younger voters where they are. Indeed, that was one heck of a good piece of advice because get this, where Generation Z prefers to get its news, only 8% prefer to get it on television. Television, look at digital though. We're talking social media, we're talking podcasts, etc. 86% of Generation Z prefer to get its news through digital media. So that advice that Charlie Kirk gave to Donald Trump to bypass the traditional media to reach out to younger voters, it was a really smart piece of advice. Of course, it wasn't Kirk merely advising Donald Trump to bypass the traditional media to reach out to younger voters.
Steve Bannon
Charlie Kirk.
Narrator/News Intro
Kirk did it himself. Right. Of course, we've seen all those campus rallies that he did, engaging with younger voters there. But of course, it was also on podcast, on digital, where Charlie Kirk was engaging with younger voters. So get this, the Charlie Kirk show podcast ranking. Well, this past quarter, it ranked in the top 10 in news. Ranked in the top 10. So it wasn't just that Charlie Kirk was advising Donald Trump, it was of course, that Charlie K. Kirk was meeting the younger voters where they were and trying to persuade them to his side of the aisle. And Based upon the 2024 election results, I think we can say that Charlie Kirk was quite successful.
Steve Bannon
This is the reason they took Charlie Kirk out. That and Charlie, at a deeper level, as you see, bringing so many people to Christ, really changing the culture. Folks laughed at Charlie when he came up with this idea of doing it. Because the nest, the, the festering sore is the universities coming up, the culmination of the way your children have been, the propaganda, they've been fed by very evil people. And that is what we now have to do. We have to use school boards, we have to use legislation. And all these people coming and attacking Charlie and his memory, all, they all must be fired. They all must be terminated. It the great thing about our Movement is the peaceful nature of the way we use power. Last night In Huntington Beach, 5,000 people all over the nation, spontaneous self organizing prayer vigils in remembrance of Charlie. No cars burned, no riots, no cities burned, no violence. But Sam Hyde had that quite powerful and he's a comedian, had a quite powerful end to thewhat we put onto the back of the privilege. Cause I thought it was important to always keep in mind what we're fighting. Right. The memory of Charlie Kirk has to go through his work. Through his work. And today at noon we'll be tossing to the Charlie Kirk Show. The Vice President of the United States, JD Vance will be hosting the show from the White House compound. I'm not sure if the west wing of his office or across at EOB where they actually have a pretty sophisticated studio and they're going to have guest hosts all week to drive what Harry Anton's talking about right there. Charlie Kirk not only in the field all the time at the universities, going to the point of contact to drive the message but also through social media. TikTok became a TikTok. He's the one that got President Trump on TikTok. He became a TikTok expert of how to use TikTok to get his message out. And of course the show here on Real America's Voice, it was also a podcast and he had, I think it was Salem radio went out simulcast. Charlie was everywhere ubiquitous and he was where everybody was touch points. Make sure you meet people where they are and spread your message and he did not back off. And that's why he is a martyr. He's a modern day Christian martyr. Of that it can be no doubt if you look at the hate and finally and this is the big I think news over the weekend and hasn't quite gotten out about the shift. This was being treated as a single murder. It's not a single murder. This is not a single murder of a great man. There's a vast conspiracy in back of this. Antifa needs to be designated as a domestic terrorist organization. Hey, if you want to make it international terrorist, there's plenty of evidence of that. In fact it came out of Europe. The trans part of this is a subset of that that is also a conspiracy, an act of conspiracy. A terrorist organization needs to be investigated. The New York Post has got a, has a, has a great piece up. We'll put it up in a little while. As we discuss is it's now being. The law enforcement is now focused and there was a lot of law enforcement that was Fighting this. They want to treat it as a simple murder. It's not a simple murder. This is far deeper and far more malignant. And that's why in the next two weeks, to make sure we go after that. And any foreign money that came in, any foreign influence that came in from the Chinese Communist Party to Soar, to others, Arabella, all of it. They have three levels. They have the first level of the antifa, and the transgender radicals are the kind of the foot soldiers. Right. Then they have a second level. You're going to be shocked. That second level is made up of what's infiltrated the military. No, it's not white nationalism or white extremism, extremist politics. That's what they try to sell under Biden's regime. Regime. You have members of the military that are radicalized. You've seen this in some of the posts about Charlie Kirk, but you have many that are in there deep that are training and working. You heard Taj Gill that are working with antifa and training antifa. And then you have the top level, and that's the people that are trying to destroy this country, the financiers in the networks of globalist financiers and others that are using this to foment a civil war here in the United States of America. I think the president today is talking about calling another national emergency in Washington about ice. I believe he can go to Portland and declare martial law, at least in that five or six block area, and clean the whole mess out. Arrest him today. As I said, the FBI should be kicking down doors this afternoon. I also don't understand, you know, you've got this guy Cox out in Utah. I'll play a clip, and I'll get to Cox after the next break. You got Cox in Utah putting out. Well, the, you know, the transgender love interest, roommate, whatever, Furry, you know, he didn't know anything about it, but he's cooperating. Well, how do we know that he should be rounded up and put under arrest right now? Now, as a potential accessory before the fact or co conspirator, these. These LGBTQ and furry sites that were all taken down instantly. All that got to go back to all those. It's. It looks like, appears some of those might even put up stuff before Charlie Kirk was there. But they certainly knew about it almost instantaneously. And particularly the Discord, his Discord chat group knew about it instantaneously after he shot it. He was kind of making jokes. Why are they not rolled up like the Boston Marathon bomber? Roommates Remember the four or five guys that were the younger guys, roommates in college and they knew immediately who it was. They saw, as soon as the videos came up, they said, hey, that's our roommate. They never informed police when they got their doors kicked in a couple days later. And I believe they all went to prison. In fact, I think might have one. Might have. One of these guys might have been killed in a shootout later. If you're going to stop this, it's not going to stop until you stop it. Charlie Kirk was the most effective. Look what he did with the youth vote. Look what he did with the young men vote. Look how absolutely that essential just shifting that was to Trump's victim. You add that then the Tyler Boyer Charlie Kirk ground game in Arizona and in Pennsylvania. It was one of the things that inspired Elon Musk to write the check because he saw the professionalism of these guys of getting troops out with people like the precinct strategy. People in this audience, all the grassroots volunteers, they took Charlie Kirk out for a reason. The reason was, look at all this spontaneous self organizing vigils. This has never happened in modern American history. I don't know if it happened. Maybe it happened during Lincoln's assassination. You never saw this, I think during Jack Kennedy's, Bobby Kennedys, maybe Martin Luther King's. But this is extraordinary. And those are world historical figures. Charlie Kirk was a world historical figure, full stop. It's the reason they assassinated him and all. They're sitting there, you know, we're really thinking through the motive. They're really thinking the motive. Look at those freaking numbers. That's your motive and your hate. We'll take a short commercial break. The investigation into this is really ramped up in the last 24 hours. Really ramped up. And by the way, there's so many unanswered questions. The shooter has not confessed yet and a lot of. I don't think there's one person in this audience that thinks the official narrative of what we're being told is what happened. Short break. Back in a moment.

White House/Political Commentator
President Trump is angry and he has every right to be angry. A lot of Americans are very angry right now and there clearly was a leftist ideology with with with this. This assassin. And so I totally understand that anger. I also wish you would have paid the clip where he quoted Charlie Kirk about the importance of nonviolence, because he said that, too. And I can tell you that the President has reached out to me. He reached out to me after the press conference and thanked me multiple times for my words. That's probably a surprise to people. Also, the reason I'm doing these morning shows, I don't do much national press anymore. The White House asked us to come on and to talk about this because they're worried about the escalation that's happening out there. But again, I don't know why we feel like we need to take our cues, that we as Americans have to get up in the morning and decide how we're gonna react or act based on what the President says or what a governor says or what anyone else says. In my conservative philosophy, and quite frankly, in my faith philosophy, we believe in agency. We believe that we are each individually responsible for ourselves. And the United States of America is a collection of a lot of different people. And again, no president is going to lead us of this. It's. It's going to be every single one of us.

I just want to go back to my first question about what you told the Wall Street Journal about that. This is a person indoctrinated with life, leftist ideology. And the reason why I think it would be great to be more specific is because your goal of trying to lower the temperature. You said that this is based on investigation and interviews with people who knew him. Did they just use the term leftist ideology or did they give specifics?

Yeah, there are. I mean, there are conversations that were discussed specifically about Charlie Kirk, other conversations about the direction that this was going. And look, my job is just to tell people I really don't have a dog in this fight. If this was MAGA and a radicalized MAGA person, I would be saying that as well. If the friends were saying that, I would be sharing that as well. That's not what they're sharing. And so I do think it is important, again, to understand how someone gets radicalized like this. And in this case, as much as people wish it wasn't or don't want it to be, this. These are the facts that are being presented to us. If there are additional facts that would point otherwise. But family discussions, parents, this is what they're saying. And again, these things happen. So it's okay to have these discussions.
Stephen K. Bannon
Listen. Absolutely. And I'm just trying to get more facts, more details of the facts that you're putting out there. One last question on that you just said right now, which is something that you mentioned on Friday, is that that he had discussions with family members about Charlie Kirk. Do you have specifics on what he was saying about Charlie Kirk to his family?
White House/Political Commentator
Just not a fan. That's all I can see.
Stephen K. Bannon
Okay. Not a specific reason why Steve Bannon called, talked about you calling to tone down the rhetoric, saying that the following saying Spencer Cox is a national embarrassment in a time where we need action. He tells us to sing Kumbaya and hold hands with antifa. This is not a time for trioche, me pontificating. This is a time to declare antifa a domestic terrorist organization and have the FBI go kick down some doors. What's your response to Steve Bannon?
White House/Political Commentator
Well, again, Mr. Bannon is angry and rightfully so. And I'm not saying we have to just sing Kumbaya and hold hands. What I'm saying is we actually should disagree. I think Charlie represented that better than anyone. Charlie said some very inflammatory things, and in some corners of the web, that's all people have heard. But he also said some other things about forgiveness. He said some amazing things about when things get dark, putting down our phones, reading scripture, going to church, talking to our neighbors. He said that we have to engage. And that's what I appreciate most about Charlie Kirk. He said if we don't keep talking, that's when the violence starts. Look, there are conflict entrepreneurs out there who benefit from radicalizing us. And I'm not one of those. I don't know that that's particularly helpful. But he is right at this. We need to find out how this happened and we need to stop it from happening.
Steve Bannon
Okay, here's what. Let's just cut to the chase. Cox is part of the problem. He's been the biggest, and it's maybe deeper than that. What did Cox say? Charlie said very inflammatory things. Charlie Kirk said very inflammatory things. But he also says some other things are good. Charlie Kirk right there on cnn. Charlie Kirk said Charlie Kirk said very inflammatory things, but he also said some other stuff. That's okay. That's good. Cox is. Represents. That's the dead Republican Party that just is too gutless to engage here and just wants to look the other way. He's also a bald face liar. And let me tell you what, he's a bald Faced liar about the White House, did not contact him and ask him to go on TV and do a full Ginsburg. Yesterday he notified the White House that hey, a couple of, a couple of Sunday shows are reaching out to me me, you know, do you have some, you know, things? And they sent hey, here's what the President's been saying. Because what the President's been saying is not what you've said. That's why the President called him when he had that, when he had the press briefing and he took the role of really the FBI director and gave the details and then went on that long, you know, I don't know, felt like 15 minute speech. The Cox is part of the problem because he's been governing there for a while and he drove the transgender. Remember he went out to all the schools, had a zoom call and talked about their pronouns, played into it. But it's deeper than that. One thing that's not being talked about. Look, I'm a Catholic and the Catholic Church has massive problems. It has massive problems, particularly when it comes to this area of lgbtq, etcetera, etc, etcetera. And you know what I'm talking about. You know, Father James Martin was there last week with the Pope and you know the Pope, they had their own jubilee, the whole thing. And it's deeper. The core rot of the Catholic Church around this issue is the reason you have such a, almost like a Charlie Kirk type movement called Trad Catholics, traditional Catholics, back to Latin Mass, back to the old timers religion. One thing that's not mentioned here is the Mormon Church and the Mormons. This is not a Utah problem. Jim Hoff has a fantastic piece up in Gateway Pundit that last night he came on talked about about what's the problem with Utah. It's not the problem with Utah. All these folks are Mormons. The shooter's Mormon. I think the furry is Mormon. Don't know that for total fact, but the indication is more. But you had this young man, Bailey that was transitioning to a girl, called himself Mia. But he's, he's, he's Bailey to us. I think he killed his parents, burned the house and arrested just a couple of minutes down in St. George, which St. George is the I think the fastest growing city in the United States and a magnificent place if you've ever been there in south west Utah near the Arizona border. It's just absolutely magnificent and just great people down there. But there's something wrong and I think the Mormon Church has to address. Look, we went out to Utah Immediately after Charlie was shot, you know, we did the show there for what, three days. My production crew was absolutely shocked that in going around Salt Lake City, they saw more LGBTQ flags than American flags. Just saying the issue and you had a network out there. Part of this organized conspiracy is clearly going to be what they're going to find in the trans. This radicalized transgender community, and particularly the subset of the franchise that's out in Utah. This is a. Just like the Catholic Church is a massive problem. So I'm not singling out the Mormons for special treatment after the evangelical. Charlie, be the first to tell you, there's a whole. Now we're part of the evangelical movement. Mainstream Protestantism has been absorbed by this. One of the reasons nobody goes to the mainstream Protestant churches anymore. How radical they've gotten, particularly parts of the Episcopal Church and the Methodist Church and then you have the Southern Baptist Conference. But however, the shooter's Mormon, comes from a Mormon family. What is going on out there and why is the Mormon Church not stepping up here in a bigger way? You have to have a debate about this. This is not about Utah. Utah is, as everybody knows, and people that think this is a deep red state, you are quite wrong. I think it may be, you may argue it's the bluest of the red states when you look at it. And this needs to be addressed. And it's interesting. That's suppressed in all the news reports.
Narrator/News Intro
Reports.
Steve Bannon
I don't know why the news media is not talking about this. It's just a fact and it's got to be addressed. Charlie Kirk's assassination was not just some kid that nobody believes. Nobody in this audience, not one person's audience believes the narrative we're being spoon fed right now. Not one person. The video that Michael Savage went after, I'm now told, and maybe I can't see it because it's too fuzzy and my eyes aren't that good, but Jack Posobic, Grace Chung, Moe, others, I've had others, the great staff here look at this over and over again. I'm told that the reason that the video and what Michael Savage says and others about jumping off the roof is that he's got a gun in his hand and he drops the gun to the ground. The rifle, that's. That's what. When you, when you confront him on that video, it said, oh, you guys are missing it. He actually has the rifle. He hasn't taken it apart. He drops the rifle down and then goes. Hides it. So during, as an exercise, maybe during the Next break or right now. Pull it up. Maybe it is, maybe it is. It's just too fuzzy. I don't know. But the timeline makes no sense. Now they're putting out video that they got the guy walking around in shorts in the, you know, because he had two costumes, walk around with two sets of clothes walking around in the neighborhoods. Yet CNN played today again. CNN played the doorbell video we saw the other day where he's walking stiff legged like he's got a rifle or part of a barrel or something in his pants. He's very stiff legged. They played it again. So clearly that has not been refuted, included by the authorities. This is why this morning, first off, over the weekend, shifting this now not to a single murder, but actually to an investigation of a conspiracy. And as President Trump said, many investigations. He talked the other day about Soros in an investigation of Soros involvement, all of it. I think you're going to see a much more sophisticated, much broader investigation into this. But, and today was a start. Cash and others went on the talk show shows, particularly Fox, and they're putting out new information, DNA on the gun, all of that. But what we need is a daily, like daily meaning every day. And if you can't start today because too late, then start tomorrow. But every day we should have a, we should have a briefing by the FBI and the Justice Department. I understand if Cash and Pam have more things to do than have others, other professionals do it, but take the center of gravity out of Utah and put it in Washington D.C. with federal authorities and you can still have, you know, if you need to zoom those guys in or cut to part of it and maybe they could do part of it out in Utah, but have central authority where we really know. And let's get a timeline down. Let's get down. So Michael Savage feels better, right? And Steve Bannon says, okay, now I do see the gun. I missed it for the, you know, 2,000 times I watched that video. I missed it because I'm still missing it. And maybe it's accurate. But I don't understand the doorbell, the car wasn't impounded. You haven't rolled up any of the Discord Chat. It seems like we're being spoon fed a narrative and this audience is not going to take it. And we're not going to allow the martyrs, Charlie Kirk to have a situation like a grassy knoll that decades and decades and decades later, we're still arguing about this. We gotta get to the bottom of it and get to the bottom of it now and It's a national priority to get to the bottom of it now. We owe it to the widow, to the children, to Charlie Kirk, his memory, and to the nation to get to the bottom of this and do it now.

Steve Bannon
Here's your host, Stephen K. Band. I want to thank our sponsor including they helped us last night, Birch Gold. Our own Scott Besant has been, I think in Spain. I thought it was in London. It was actually in Spain where he's been negotiating with the Chinese Communist Party about the tariff deals. Of course they're getting President Trump is going to do I guess secondary sanctions now give them the same medicine India got for buying Russian gas and oil. And I think there's been progress made. But I can tell you Marjorie Taylor Greene's out. She ain't happy about the cr. If we put that tweet up, maybe in the next hour she's saying, hey, what we're doing is folks, this is the facts once again. It's Biden Pelosi's numbers and she said the whole process was a sham. Now the guys at the omb, Russ Fot and these guys saying, hey, the point you're missing is that we're going to have rescissions in here. We're going to pocket rescission and pound endowment, et cetera. And I don't know, it's $20 billion of that, that's fine. But the deficit this year is going to be $1.9 trillion on September 30th when we stop. Who predicted that? Yeah, war room Stephen K. Bannon. When they told us the deficit was going to be a trillion, I said, nope, it's going to be, I don't know, 2 trillion thereabouts. I think 1.9 is not a bad guess. Coming 1 is going to be 2 trillion. It's going to have to be a drop addressed. Maybe you need some pattern recognition while gold's on fire. We don't talk about the price of gold. We talk about the pattern recognition. What drives the value of gold. You need to learn that. We're not selling you a fish, we're teaching you how to fish. Birchgold. Birchgold.com, promo code Bannon. The end of the dollar empire. Seven free installments, eight and nine underway. We are working on those. I promise you we'll get them out shortly. But you get them all free now and you get on the list to get them all free in the future and you get to meet Philip Patrick and his team. That's who you need to talk to. Philip Patrick's team, birchgold.com, promo code abandoned. The end of the dollar empire. Daniel Buck joins us from one of the great companies in America. Guys we're so proud to be associated with that is Glenn Story and the team down in Texas at Patriot Mobile, 972 Patriot. Talk to an American citizen when you call at their call center. Danielle, look, everybody knows the great work that Glenn Story and the team have done on the redistricting with Brian Harrison, the means who had all that through your guys pack. But what I want today is to make sure folks know that this is also the best phone service out there. Tell me about it. Walk us through it. Danielle is a senior vice president over at Patriot Mobile. Tell us about it, ma'. Am.
Stephen K. Bannon
Yes, Steve. Yeah. Patriot Mobile is in the fight. Just like Charlie was in the fight with all he had. So is Patriot Mobile. And we do that by selling cell phone service. Like you just said, every single one of your watchers has a cell phone. And right now I bet most of you are still haven't switched to Patriot Mobile. And so I want to urge you like Charlie called us all to live with everything we have for the kingdom of God, for free speech, for the second amendment, for the sanctity of life, for veteran of first responders. That's who Patriot Mobile is. And I, I want every single one of you guys to actually join us because the more of you that join us, the more that we can do. And so it really is very easy. You call 972 Patriot, you talk to one of our customer service reps which as you said are right here in the United States and you get to join the movement. And I think that what we've seen this weekend is millions of people are rising up to join the movement and we want you guys to join Patriot Mobile because once you join, we can do more. And so if you go on our website, as you can see right there, yeah, just use code ban and you get a free month of service. We actually use the exact same networks as the major carriers. So your service is going to work exactly the same, I promise. And one other thing, you can actually have multiple networks on one device. So if you're somebody who travels a lot and maybe there's some spotty service, you actually could have two different networks on one phone. So it truly is a superior service and you're getting to fund the movement that we all believe so much in.
Steve Bannon
Where do they go? I send them to 972 Patriot to call the call center. People will help you through it. They're all US Citizens. Use promo code Bannon, you get a free or war room or Bannon you get a free months of service. How else can they contact you guys? Because the war room posse has a tendency to want to be immersed in information. Right. So where do they go to find out everything about Glenn Story and the team?
Stephen K. Bannon
Sure, yeah. So right there you can go to patriot mobile.com and you can see so much about us. You can shop our plans. So whether you're an individual, a family or a business, I promise you Patriot Mobile can service you. I would also encourage you to check out our social media channels. Put Patriot Mobile on Facebook and Patriot Mobile on Instagram because I think there you will not just see about our great service. You'll see customer testimonials of people like yourself and also just everyday Americans who've joined. Join Patriot Mobile because we are growing rapidly and we want you to join us too. And it, and it really is something that's different. Right? Like most people are asking for donations and you've seen that obviously with what's happened this weekend is people are just going to, you know, TPUSA and other organizations which we do support and giving to them, but you can also give to them by just simply switching your cell phone bill. Every single one of you, an individual, a family or a business, pays for a cell phone. And you can join the move movement by joining patriotmobile.com so, yes, call 972 Patriot, talk to one of our amazing representatives, or go to patriotmobile.com you can actually do the entire process online if you'd like. It really is that easy. And I promise you will not be disappointed. We have a customer service guarantee. So if for some reason your service doesn't work perfectly, we can switch you to one of our other networks. And we would just absolutely love to help you and get in the fight with us because the more you join, the more we can do and we promise we are trying to do absolutely everything we can to bring light to the darkness, to honor Charlie's legacy. Charlie was part of Patriot Mobile. I don't know if many of you guys know that, but we, we love Charlie and we want to be our own. Charlie's right. I've seen that obviously chanted all across the Internet all weekend is how can you know, I am Charlie Kirk. And we had a group of people in D.C. at the event last night in Nashville last night, and it was just really amazing to get to see how I think the people that are all in for Christ and all in for conservative Christian values, they're standing up and they're saying, use me, Lord. And that's exactly what every single one of you can do by joining Patriot Mobile. I mean, that's what Charlie would have wanted. He would have wanted us to use every single bit of our lives, our giftings, our money, our resources. And that's exactly what you do by joining Patriot Mobile. I mean, it is something that every single one of you pays every month. And I don't want to sound like a broken record, but I kind of do because it matters. I can't tell you how many people I met who've said, I've heard of you guys for years and I've never called, I've never switched. It takes too much time. It takes 20 minutes. 20 minutes. That's it.
Steve Bannon
Yeah.
Stephen K. Bannon
And I promise it's going to make a huge difference. So join us.
Steve Bannon
Thank you so much. Appreciate you. Yeah, no, they were huge supporters of all of Charlie's conferences. Used to go and have hang out with the Patriot Mobile guys there. Charlie's bagpipes take us out. Daniel Buck from Patriot Mobile. Thank you, ma'. Am. Next hour, we're going to raise the temperature. Temperature needs to be raised. We're not looking at Cox. We're not looking. We're looking for you to do your job in Utah. Why are all these kids, why are they killing their parents and burning homes and, you know, coming up through your education system, why you gotta be held accountable, dude. We don't need you preaching to the rest of the nation and particularly preaching to President Trump about the way things should be. Short break, back in a moment.

Episode Date: September 15, 2025 | Episode #: 4778
Podcast Host: Stephen K. Bannon
Main Theme: The assassination of Charlie Kirk, its broader cultural and political implications, and the perceived conspiracy behind the event.
This episode of The War Room is marked by the shocking assassination of conservative political activist Charlie Kirk. Stephen K. Bannon and various commentators reflect on Kirk’s legacy, the rising tension in American society, the suspected motive and conspiracy behind his murder, and the path forward for their movement. The episode is both a tribute and a call to action—intertwined with discussion of faith, activism, political organizing, and warnings about potential societal collapse if the moment is not seized.
(03:05–13:03)
The episode opens with a memorial for Charlie Kirk, including prayers, scripture readings, and testimonies about his faith-driven life.
The hosts and speakers underscore Kirk’s Christian faith as his anchor and inspiration for his political activism.
There is an emphasized call for listeners to adopt Kirk’s “bold faith, courage to speak truth, and commitment to what’s right.”
Reflection on mortality and legacy:
"The time that we have in this world is temporary... so the critical question... is whatever time we have, what are we doing with it? How are we making the most of every day that we have?"
—Steve Bannon [06:44]
The theme of evil as a force that fills a vacuum when society forgets God is repeated, and Kirk’s life is held up as a model for countering this darkness.
A moving prayer closes:
“Charlie once said recently, Jesus defeated death so that we can live. So tonight, as we honor Charlie's memory, may we also take heart to the message of his life. Let's choose to walk with that same courage, to love people deeply, to stand boldly for truth.”
—Religious Speaker [05:50]
(16:34–24:36, 24:36–33:06)
Bannon asserts that Kirk’s assassination is part of a vast conspiracy involving domestic and possibly international terrorist networks, and not merely a lone incident.
“It is not a simple murder. It is much deeper and more vast than that. Including an entire network of terrorists, both domestic and international, probably with international financing.”
—Steve Bannon [16:34]
Suggests parallels to historic figures:
“You never saw this, I think, during Jack Kennedy's, Bobby Kennedy's, maybe Martin Luther King's. But this [the response to Kirk’s assassination] is extraordinary. And those are world historical figures... Charlie Kirk was a world historical figure, full stop. It's the reason they assassinated him.”
—Steve Bannon [32:35]
The rise of “spontaneous self-organizing prayer vigils” is cited as evidence of Kirk’s impact and as proof of the “peaceful” nature of their movement.
The episode discusses statistics showing a dramatic shift in young voter (especially young male) support for Trump, crediting Kirk’s approach and advice to Trump:
“One of the reasons that Donald Trump was so successful among younger voters was because of advice given to him by Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk said, bypass the traditional media, go straight on the podcast, talk to younger voters where they are.”
—Narrator [22:08]
Bannon frames Kirk’s killer as driven by leftist and transgender radicalization, alleging a greater plot:
“Antifa needs to be designated as a domestic terrorist organization. Hey, if you want to make it international terrorist, there's plenty of evidence of that... The trans part of this is a subset of that, that is also a conspiracy, an act of conspiracy. A terrorist organization, needs to be investigated.”
—Steve Bannon [25:21]
(33:06–46:11)
“It seems like we're being spoon fed a narrative, and this audience is not going to take it.” —Steve Bannon [49:18]
“But there's something wrong, and I think the Mormon Church has to address... Part of this organized conspiracy is clearly going to be... this radicalized transgender community, and particularly the subset... in Utah.”
—Steve Bannon [44:27]
“Pray for our enemies. Cause we're going medieval on these people.”
—Steve Bannon [15:26]
(36:07–41:13)
“In my conservative philosophy, and quite frankly, in my faith philosophy, we believe in agency. We believe that we are each individually responsible for ourselves.”
—White House Commentator [36:55]
“They can't help themselves because they're so ugly and so low that the only joy they can experience... is to take something beautiful or innocent down to their level. And when they can't do it, the next best thing is blood. This is Charlie's family. And these are his children who will never be able to hug their dad...” [13:03–15:24]
For those who could not listen:
This was not a standard news recap; it was a rallying cry amid grief. The episode connects spiritual, political, and cultural struggle, and calls its audience to intensified commitment. Listeners would leave with a sense of urgency, suspicion of official narratives, and a heroic mythos constructed around Charlie Kirk’s life and death.
