Bannon's War Room - Episode 2171： Fed Raises Interest Rates As The Markets Plummet; Alex Jones Unleashed; Attack Against Free Speech

00:00:00.000 What do I see for 2022? What's my outlook?

00:00:03.060 All right, first of all, to me, we have the strongest economy perhaps I have ever seen.

00:00:08.120 Today, the FOMC raised its policy interest rate by three quarters of a percentage point.

00:00:13.480 And we anticipate that ongoing increases will be appropriate.

00:00:18.200 We are moving our policy stance purposefully to a level that will be sufficiently restrictive

00:00:22.800 to return inflation to 2%.

00:00:25.220 If we want to set ourselves up, really light the way to another period of a very strong labor market,

00:00:32.480 we have got to get inflation behind us.

00:00:35.420 I wish there were a painless way to do that. There isn't.

00:00:38.920 So what we need to do is get rates up to the point where we're putting meaningful downward pressure on inflation.

00:00:46.420 And that's what we're doing.

00:00:48.000 And we certainly don't hope, we certainly haven't given up the idea that we can have a relatively modest increase in unemployment.

00:00:57.960 Nonetheless, we need to complete this task.

00:01:00.200 Stocks closing out the day at session lows, as you know by now, following that 75 basis point rate hike by the Fed.

00:01:06.160 Jeffrey Gunlock telling me just moments ago a recession could be fairly deep if the Fed does, in fact, keep raising rates.

00:01:12.400 In fact, you put the odds of a recession happening next year at 75%.

00:01:16.260 As for his outlook for stocks, he said the S&P 500 could drop more than 20% to 3,000.

00:01:22.640 He said there's, quote, real value in the bond market now.

00:01:25.840 Okay, welcome.

00:01:28.260 It is Wednesday, 21 September in the year of our Lord, 2022.

00:01:32.340 Two massive stories today, one on Wall Street, the other a little bit uptown in midtown Manhattan.

00:01:37.840 I guess not in midtown Manhattan, still kind of downtown Manhattan at the courthouse.

00:01:42.660 We're going to get to all that.

00:01:44.260 Letitia James, we've got Mike Davis and Tom Fitton are going to join us about Tish James going after President Trump. 0.82

00:01:49.800 We also have Alex Jones and Benny Johnson in a gym, a hop.

00:01:54.060 They're all going to join us.

00:01:56.020 Let's go to, I want to start with Peter Navarro.

00:01:59.780 Dr. Navarro, you've been calling this for a while.

00:02:01.680 Well, I just want to correct, I think it was CNBC about this.

00:02:06.680 Are we going to go into recession?

00:02:07.760 75% chance.

00:02:08.800 The Atlanta Fed today dropped the third quarter estimate to a negative.

00:02:12.700 That'd be three quarters in a row.

00:02:14.380 Dr. Navarro, tell us what happened today.

00:02:17.420 What about this rate increase?

00:02:18.980 And you've been the first guy to say, hey, the stock market and the bond market are getting blown up.

00:02:23.600 They're saying today on CNBC, buy the dip in the bond market.

00:02:26.680 Dr. Peter Navarro.

00:02:27.680 Steve, the more I watch this, the more I think it really is a cynical game of the smart money jerking around everybody else.

00:02:38.680 I'm going to show you a quick chart here.

00:02:41.700 This is the S&P 500 over the last couple of days.

00:02:47.180 You know, it's bouncing around that fall low at the end of it, red.

00:02:52.480 That's Jay Powell getting on stage and talking.

00:02:55.240 And this is pretty much what happens, Steve, every time Jay Powell gets on after whatever it is the Fed does.

00:03:02.280 But I don't understand, other than this is a game on Wall Street, why people don't see clearly what exactly what you, me, Cortez, Bratz, Walt, all these guys have been saying.

00:03:17.020 We are in a stagflationary environment. 0.86

00:03:20.580 Now, this whole notion of buying the dip in bonds, are you frigging kidding me?

00:03:26.560 The mortgage rate hit 6.25% today, and it's on its way up until God knows where.

00:03:36.160 However, interest rates are going to keep climbing because of stagflationary forces built in.

00:03:43.440 The problem we have here, Steve, is that the Federal Reserve is a one-trick pony.

00:03:48.980 You and I have talked about this repeatedly, but it's worth saying again.

00:03:52.840 You don't usually have recession and inflation at the same time.

00:03:57.180 When you do, recession drives down stock pricing, inflation drives down bond prices.

00:04:04.640 Now, the Fed is a one-trick pony.

00:04:07.040 It can either raise interest rates to control inflation, or it can lower them to stimulate an economy out of recession.

00:04:15.700 But think about that.

00:04:17.040 If it's a one-trick pony, it can only solve one of those problems at one time.

00:04:21.760 And when it tries to do that, it exacerbates the other.

00:04:24.940 This is a replay of the 70s where Nixon and Ford and Carter all bounce back and forth between fight and recession, fight and inflation.

00:04:35.900 They didn't understand.

00:04:37.480 But here's what happened.

00:04:38.920 And here's what happened in that time.

00:04:40.500 In that time, what happened is Volcker sat in the Oval Office and heard Carter yammering on.

00:04:45.200 He left after the meeting.

00:04:46.700 He went back to the Fed, and he raised interest rates 500 basis points in an afternoon to shock the system.

00:04:52.680 Now, he sent us into a—

00:04:54.680 And let's be clear, Steve, that Jerome Powell is no Paul Volcker, okay? 0.99

00:04:58.820 I don't want to hear that crap comparison. 0.96

00:05:01.640 I knew Paul Volcker. 0.99

00:05:02.440 He keeps invoking Paul Volcker.

00:05:05.440 He keeps invoking Paul Volcker.

00:05:07.900 Yes.

00:05:08.120 What message is he trying to send?

00:05:10.300 Well, the difference between Paul Volcker and Jerome Powell is that Paul Volcker was an economist who understood how economies work.

00:05:21.340 Powell just thinks, well, we got inflation.

00:05:23.820 The only thing I can do is raise interest rates.

00:05:26.000 That's not a plan, Steve.

00:05:27.800 Here's the thing.

00:05:28.620 We've got the Congress and the White House doing one thing, which is stimulating the economy with fiscally irresponsible, inefficient bills that are going to offshore our supply chains and create all manner of both demand pull and cost push inflation.

00:05:47.560 That's what they're doing.

00:05:48.920 And Powell's trying to control inflation on this side.

00:05:53.480 It's just not going to work.

00:05:55.740 Look, it's like they won't let me on CNBC.

00:05:58.860 They won't let me on the business shows.

00:06:00.960 They don't want to hear this stuff.

00:06:02.760 They just want to steal money from pension funds, buying the dips with advice.

00:06:07.780 You were the guy that called the big Trump rally.

00:06:10.740 You've also said, they said right there, 20% from the peak would be 30,000.

00:06:15.500 Dr. Peter Invar, in your own voice, are we going to hit 25,000 before we hit 40,000, sir?

00:06:20.620 I've said that.

00:06:21.520 That's my call, Steve.

00:06:22.760 We will hit 25,000.

00:06:24.480 And, you know, look, we've had a – since I made the call on the war room in November of last year, we've gone from 36,000 on the Dow down to close to 30,000.

00:06:38.960 There's a concept in technical trading known as support levels.

00:06:44.160 30,000 on the Dow is a support level.

00:06:47.360 Boy, as soon as you break through that level of support, that thing's going to drop thousands more points.

00:06:53.900 And 25,000 is a very reasonable fall given what we're seeing.

00:07:00.600 Every piece of news is bad, Steve.

00:07:02.120 There's no good news.

00:07:04.000 I see no good economic news.

00:07:05.860 Well, there's no good economic news.

00:07:07.620 They're going to come back tomorrow and talk about the CR, which is setting us at levels of this year, which is a $3.50, $2.50.

00:07:14.160 Peter, hang on for one second because I want to get you at the close.

00:07:16.640 I want to get to David Sokol, author of American Perspective.

00:07:19.760 David is an investment professional.

00:07:22.340 He used to have Teton Capital.

00:07:23.580 David, give us your perspective of Jerome Powell and their efforts at the Fed to try to tame the burning dumpster fire of inflation in this economy, sir.

00:07:34.500 Well, Steve, I think Peter is exactly right.

00:07:36.760 You know, you've got this bizarre scenario on one hand, I think the Federal Reserve, if all you focus on is inflation in a vacuum, raising rates is certainly one tool.

00:07:49.020 But you've got an administration and a Congress that is throwing money on the fire of inflation.

00:07:54.240 And further, while I'm in favor of obviously we have inflation, we need workers to have wages and at least attempt to keep up with it.

00:08:03.480 The problem is the government is now almost fostering strikes.

00:08:07.260 And you're going to end up with a spiraling inflation that raising interest rates will ultimately tame, but it will be a long time into the future to do it.

00:08:17.100 And stagflation is what we should be concerned with.

00:08:20.180 Real quickly, the subtitle of your book is Defending the American Dream for the Next Generation.

00:08:25.920 Can we even worry about the next generation now or we're going to wipe out this generation unless somebody gets control of the spending and gets in sync with what the Fed's trying to do?

00:08:34.200 David Sokol.

00:08:34.780 Well, Steve, I think the answer is we've got the only way we protect the American Dream is to get people focused on this upcoming election.

00:08:43.540 A lot of times people say this is the election of a lifetime.

00:08:46.340 But this this one I believe actually is.

00:08:48.860 And the reason is our founding fathers.

00:08:51.040 And we tried to point this out, Adam and I, in the book that our founding fathers built this country on consensus, forcing people to the middle.

00:08:59.900 Everything about our Constitution does that.

00:09:02.040 You know, a 75 percent approval requirement of the states for any amendment to the Constitution, two thirds for an impeachment in the Senate, a filibuster at 60 votes.

00:09:12.640 We this election, if the Democrats managed to add one Senate seat, particularly one, say, this fellow in Pennsylvania who is actually advocating and campaigning on the fact that he would destroy the filibuster.

00:09:26.740 That will take away the fundamental check and balance in our system, which is the Supreme Court.

00:09:32.240 And so I think the only way we can protect this this country of ours, this phenomenal entity called America that our founding fathers put in place.

00:09:42.740 The only way we can protect it is in this election.

00:09:46.220 We've got to take the House back and we've got to get control of the Senate.

00:09:49.800 If someone like Fetterman and his ilk or Warnock continues in the Senate, et cetera, we will lose control of this country.

00:09:58.060 Peter Navarro, is Sokol right?

00:10:00.980 Is this why you're so focused on these House seats?

00:10:03.820 And is are we going to need is MAGA going to need a political solution to an economic and financial crisis because of this madness and fiscal policy coupled with the easy money policies that they're now trying to they're trying to be a reaction to it?

00:10:18.080 Is David Sokol right?

00:10:19.420 Do you see that this has to be a MAGA political solution to stop the madness, sir?

00:10:23.180 Of course, he's right.

00:10:25.660 The book I wrote, Steve, Taking Back Trump's America, take it literally, dude.

00:10:30.320 It's like it's a mission for us in the war room, David Sokol.

00:10:34.600 And I'm telling you, it's like Donald Trump understood how economies prosper, how real wages go up, the black, brown and blue collar manufacturing workers.

00:10:46.280 He understood what peace is like abroad, what a secure southern border is.

00:10:51.260 We don't have any of that out there.

00:10:53.540 The apocalypse is descending on us in Biden's America.

00:10:57.600 And there doesn't appear to be anybody who understands economic policy.

00:11:02.480 I mean, Larry Summers is jockeying for Janet Yellen's position publicly.

00:11:06.780 He doesn't know what the hell he's talking about.

00:11:09.060 You know what Larry Summers world looks like, Steve?

00:11:11.340 It's like raise interest rates and make poor people have their wages go down to control wage inflation.

00:11:18.440 That's Larry Summers' solution.

00:11:20.600 And by the way, price controls wouldn't be behind.

00:11:23.420 We've got to take back that house, Steve.

00:11:25.540 We've got to take back it for Trump's America.

00:11:27.820 You just heard it from Navarro right now.

00:11:30.400 Hang on.

00:11:30.940 Another Navarro call.

00:11:32.660 Price controls are on their way.

00:11:34.320 Real quickly, Peter, how big a deal is it?

00:11:36.720 The Atlanta Fed has already signaled we're going to have negative growth even before today for the third quarter, sir.

00:11:42.760 Give me a minute on that.

00:11:43.680 Hi, they're watching the war room, Steve.

00:11:47.220 They're watching Cortez and me and you explaining how, yeah, we're already in a recession.

00:11:54.780 This whole idea that the unemployment rate is low, like whoopee.

00:11:59.580 Yeah, it's because a lot of people left the workforce, right?

00:12:03.020 They left the workforce.

00:12:04.500 And so, look, it's just going to get worse because, you know, it's the idea of like if you're in a hole, stop digging, right?

00:12:13.200 They keep digging.

00:12:14.460 And you're right.

00:12:15.140 The next thing on Capitol Hill is they're going to try to lift the debt, lemons, and keep spending this money.

00:12:20.900 We've got all those fights to come.

00:12:22.460 It's insane.

00:12:23.080 We're going to have a Russ vote on tomorrow.

00:12:25.480 Buy the dip, though, Steve.

00:12:26.840 Buy the dip.

00:12:27.480 Buy the dip.

00:12:28.220 Hold it.

00:12:28.900 Yeah, buy the dip.

00:12:29.760 Put me good.

00:12:30.720 Morning, Joe.

00:12:31.340 Put me on saying I said buy the dip on Bannon and just know that my tongue was stuck way deep in my cheek because we get it right and CNBC gets it wrong every day and they're taking your money.

00:12:46.020 Buy the dip on the bonds.

00:12:47.420 Real quickly, Peter, how did they get to taking back Trump's America?

00:12:50.580 You're all over doing book signings, where do they go to find out where you're going to be and get the book, sir?

00:12:55.800 Warram, I need your help here.

00:13:24.880 So, Steve, Admiral, you keep doing what you're doing.

00:13:28.280 But, boy, you know, it's like this goes from bad to worse.

00:13:32.580 The only thing I take heart in is, like, people who know how to short markets like me.

00:13:38.040 You know, it's like I'm protected.

00:13:39.880 But most of America, pension funds, they're not.

00:13:44.100 That's unfortunate.

00:13:45.420 And that's Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi doing it. 0.99

00:13:47.920 By the way, Steve, don't forget that son of bitches on Congress were insider trading, making money on the stock market. 1.00

00:13:56.540 Well, the people of America and their pension funds were going down the tubes. 0.99

00:14:15.860 We're going to go to the battleground.

00:14:18.180 We've got a bunch of shows to do on that to go through each district.

00:14:20.340 Thank you very much.

00:14:21.000 David Sokol, real quickly, how do people get to your book?

00:14:23.780 How do they get to America in perspective, sir?

00:14:26.500 Well, on Amazon, you can go through freedomworks.com or just on Amazon, American perspective.

00:14:33.060 And I appreciate what you and what Peter are doing.

00:14:37.040 You know, we've got to get the country back to shape.

00:14:40.020 We're going to have you back on it.

00:14:41.320 The book is amazing.

00:14:42.420 We're going to have you back on it because you're talking about saving the country now for the next generation.

00:14:46.220 David Sokol, Dr. Peter Navarro.

00:14:48.500 Another bleak day in the capital markets brought to you by the Biden regime.

00:14:52.080 Short commercial break.

00:14:53.040 We're going to come back.

00:14:53.640 Tom Fitt and Mike Davis next.

00:14:59.240 You know what's never good?

00:15:00.640 When your nation's supposed authority on economic policy completely misses the flashing red lights of impending inflation.

00:15:10.080 Now, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has finally admitted, quote,

00:15:13.640 quote, there's been an unanticipated and large shocks to the economy that have boosted energy and food prices and supply bottlenecks that affected our economy badly that I didn't at the time fully understand.

00:15:27.500 End quote.

00:15:27.880 You know who understands the real threat of inflation?

00:15:30.740 People who invested in gold and silver with Birch Gold Group.

00:15:35.680 They're protecting their savings from a highly turbulent economy by diversifying their 401k or IRA into gold, physical gold.

00:16:23.160 Some breaking news just in that we need to get to right now.

00:16:27.380 New York Attorney General Letitia James has filed a civil lawsuit against former President Donald Trump, his children, and his family business.

00:16:36.340 Let's listen in.

00:16:37.040 She's speaking now.

00:16:37.640 Mr. Trump and the Trump Organization repeatedly and persistently manipulated the value of assets to induce banks to lend money to the Trump Organization on more favorable terms than would otherwise have been available to the company.

00:16:56.520 To pay lower taxes, to satisfy continuing loan agreements, and to induce insurance companies to provide insurance coverage for higher limits and at lower premiums.

00:17:10.520 His conduct was all in violation of executive law, Section 6312, which gives the Attorney General broad and special powers to go after persistent and repeated fraud and illegality.

00:17:27.660 Okay.

00:17:28.500 As part of demonstrating illegality under that section of law.

00:17:31.240 Not that I couldn't listen to Tish James all day, right?

00:17:34.800 But I want to go to Mike Davis.

00:17:37.380 Alex Jones is going to join us.

00:17:38.680 Benny Johnson, Tom Fitton, kind of murderer's row today.

00:17:42.200 27 Yankees all the way.

00:17:44.500 Mike Davis, you put some pretty hot tweets up on Twitter.

00:17:48.380 Explain to me, Tish James.

00:17:50.660 I'm sure this is totally unrelated.

00:17:52.360 They just put a poll up two days ago that showed she was losing to her underfinanced, no-name recognition Republican competitor for Attorney General with five weeks to go. 1.00

00:18:04.160 That this was totally unrelated about her coming after President Trump.

00:18:07.320 Put it in perspective.

00:18:08.060 What is she doing, sir? 0.80

00:18:10.120 This is just complete, frivolous, partisan nonsense out of Tish James. 0.97

00:18:17.760 She's a joke. 1.00

00:18:19.380 She's a clown. 1.00

00:18:20.580 She's dumb. 1.00

00:18:21.320 She's angry. 1.00

00:18:21.940 She's loud.

00:18:22.520 And she's trying to get Trump.

00:18:23.680 She filed a 220-page civil fraud lawsuit against Trump and his kids and his organizations.

00:18:31.640 What she seems to fail to miss is with fraud in New York, you have to show that someone detrimentally relied upon those false representations and they were injured by it.

00:18:46.000 And even the New York Times, not exactly Trump fans, they essentially called out Tish James' lawsuit as political nonsense.

00:18:55.800 Let me just read it to you.

00:18:57.960 Yet her case against him could be difficult to prove.

00:19:01.360 Property valuations are often subjective and the financial statements include a disclaimer stating that they have not been audited.

00:19:10.520 And if there were a trial, his attorneys would most likely emphasize that Deutsche Bank and Mr. Trump's other lenders were hardly victims.

00:19:20.280 All of his loans are either current or were paid off some early.

00:19:26.560 And the New York Times also points out he doesn't use email famously, so you're not going to find smoking gun email if it's intense.

00:19:34.220 I mean, it's just – this is such political nonsense, what they're doing.

00:19:39.160 This is part of the pattern of the Democrats of going after Trump.

00:19:42.360 The New York Times continued that they point out again that Trump's lawyers will likely point out the disclaimer in his financial statements saying that Maysars had not audited the valuations.

00:19:56.600 They're also –

00:19:58.600 Go ahead, sir.

00:20:00.440 Continue on.

00:20:01.340 No, no, continue on.

00:20:02.120 It's so powerful.

00:20:02.780 Because this is the New York Times.

00:20:03.920 It's not Gateway Pundit saying this.

00:20:05.960 This is the New York Times.

00:20:07.040 Continue on, Mike.

00:20:08.540 Here's the final one.

00:20:09.660 They also would likely argue that the Trump organizations submitted the statements to sophisticated financial institutions that conducted their own due diligence and profited in their dealings with Mr. Trump.

00:20:24.940 And then they have a statement out by the company statement, the Trump company statement, quote, while the job of the attorney general is to protect the interest of the public, today's filing for the first time in the history of the attorney general's office seeks to protect the interest of large, sophisticated Wall Street banks.

00:20:46.620 This is a farce.

00:20:47.900 We'll get more to it later.

00:20:49.020 I just want to break the news and have you do the analysis.

00:20:50.800 Also, real quickly before I lose you, there's all kind of controversy now about the special master.

00:20:56.920 Have the – the Trump lawyers have been kind of magnificent because essentially they're following your strategy.

00:21:02.860 Have they overplayed their hander?

00:21:04.080 Is this special master making some moves here that the mainstream media who are jumping all on this bandwagon may be correct?

00:21:11.220 What's going on with the special master?

00:21:13.020 So I don't know what's going on here.

00:21:14.240 I will say this.

00:21:15.040 I think that there is a fundamental misunderstanding about classified records.

00:21:20.320 It's a red herring.

00:21:21.200 Under the Presidential Records Act, records received by the president and his staff are presidential records.

00:21:28.040 And that includes classified records from the CIA, from the DIA, any intel agency.

00:21:33.280 Those are presidential records.

00:21:34.940 And under the Presidential Records Act, former presidents have unfettered access to their records.

00:21:41.460 And so when Judge Cannon said for the special master to sort through these records, it's because this biased magistrate judge, Bruce Reinhardt, ordered a home raid, unprecedented, unnecessary, and unlawful home raid.

00:21:54.500 And they got 11,000 records from Trump.

00:21:57.220 And so the whole point of the special master, I think it was Cannon's very gentle way of getting Reinhardt the hell off this case because he's biased, as evidenced by his recusal eight weeks ago in Trump's civil lawsuit on Russian collusion.

00:22:10.860 But the special master job is simply to take these 11,000 documents and put them in four different buckets, whether they're personal records that are not privileged, personal records that are privileged, presidential records that are not privileged, presidential records that are privileged.

00:22:27.160 It doesn't matter if they're classified.

00:22:28.840 His only job is to figure out if they're marked classified, review them first so the government stops whining about their fake concerns about a criminal investigation or an intel assessment.

00:22:38.580 I think this special master just needs to get clarification from Judge Cannon on what he's supposed to be doing.

00:22:45.840 Mike, real quick, what's your social media?

00:22:47.740 People got to follow you, if nothing more than the Letitia James stuff tonight.

00:22:51.520 We're going to have you back on tomorrow to break that down.

00:22:53.500 It's a total farce.

00:22:54.280 How'd they get to you, sir?

00:22:55.320 Yeah, it's article3project.org, article3project.org.

00:22:58.720 And it's at article3project, at article3project on Getter Twitter.

00:23:02.680 And true within my personal is at MRDDMIA, at MRDDMIA.

00:23:08.700 Thank you, Steve.

00:23:10.220 Thank you.

00:23:10.960 And thank you for bringing up the New York Times about the Tish James fiasco.

00:23:14.360 Let's play, by the way, MSNBC is all clutching their pearls because of Tom Fitton.

00:23:18.420 Let's play the cold open on Tom Fitton.

00:23:20.600 I'll bring Tom Fitton in.

00:23:21.460 Because he was ignoring his highly qualified White House lawyers, Pat Philbin, Pat Cipollone,

00:23:28.980 and Eric Hirschman.

00:23:30.420 Instead, he was reportedly taking the advice of this guy.

00:23:35.080 We want to know about the deep state effort to overthrow the president of the United States.

00:23:40.700 You know, in many ways, it's remarkable the president is a crime victim.

00:23:44.540 He was targeted illegally by the Obama administration.

00:23:48.700 If he doesn't want to fire Mueller directly, maybe just pardon everyone.

00:23:52.260 Everyone caught up in it, either directly or indirectly, who's the subject, the target,

00:23:56.980 you name it, just pardon it all.

00:23:59.120 I think the raid was a fraud, an abuse, and a sham.

00:24:02.580 There was no good faith basis to target Trump here with this outrageous raid.

00:24:07.160 And all those records he has are his records.

00:24:10.280 And they should stop pretending that just because they think they're presidential records

00:24:15.020 and they think it's classified, you know, that's the final answer.

00:24:20.060 And it ain't.

00:24:21.500 So that's a guy named Tom Fitton.

00:24:23.140 He's like a second, third tier conservative activist, head of the right-wing group for Judicial

00:24:28.360 Watch.

00:24:28.720 They've been around for forever.

00:24:30.820 Somewhat ludicrous figure, honestly.

00:24:32.540 I put him in the, like, Ginny Thomas category of the American right.

00:24:37.920 Whoa, Chris Hayes.

00:24:39.240 You could not be more incorrect.

00:24:40.680 Tom Fitton.

00:24:41.220 Judicial Watch is a hammer.

00:24:42.700 Tom Fitton, why all of a sudden they're getting snarky and nasty about you, brother Fitton?

00:24:47.600 Second or third tier?

00:24:48.820 I think I call Tom Fitton main battery.

00:24:51.820 Brother, why are they melting down, in particular in case you're not a lawyer?

00:24:55.820 Walk me through this, brother.

00:24:57.640 I don't know.

00:24:58.620 Well, I do know.

00:25:01.100 Look, there have been reports in the New York Times, CNN a few weeks ago.

00:25:04.980 So the left is agitated because they believe, and I'm not going to say whether I am or not

00:25:11.520 because it's no one's business, that supposedly I've been advising Trump on some of these issues.

00:25:19.760 You know, but you can see from the material that they put out there, which I'm glad they

00:25:24.540 repeat it because Americans need to hear it, especially in MSNBC, that despite what I've

00:25:31.820 said, Trump has done other things.

00:25:34.280 He didn't fire Mueller.

00:25:35.600 He didn't pardon everyone caught up.

00:25:37.240 He pardoned some of those caught up in Mueller's investigations.

00:25:40.800 And in the case of the documents, you know, it erupted after he turned over the documents,

00:25:48.600 reportedly at the advice of lawyers around him or others.

00:25:52.920 And my point was, and to follow on what Mike Davis has been talking about, because we were

00:25:58.120 on the wrong end of a court decision that found that the archives and the Justice Department

00:26:03.940 had no business as second-guessing a president's decision-making on records.

00:26:08.240 And in fact, the presumption was that if he had the records after he left the Oval

00:26:12.440 Office, they were personal records, and they weren't anyone else other than the president's.

00:26:18.520 So I started blowing the whistle on that.

00:26:21.380 You know, it's one thing to say to Judicial Watch, yeah, you know, you can't have these.

00:26:27.940 And the court says there's no way anyone can go in and get them.

00:26:32.220 And then for the Justice Department to then go tell a court 10 years later the exact opposite,

00:26:38.240 that's government corruption.

00:26:39.900 And if I were the president, if I were President Trump, and he should still take this position,

00:26:45.760 I think they should still be more aggressive here.

00:26:48.140 They should say, these are all my records, and I want them back.

00:26:51.440 That's what the position of the Justice Department has been.

00:26:54.140 Why has it changed here?

00:26:55.340 You mean, follow 41, go 41G?

00:26:58.840 Is that what you're talking about?

00:27:01.140 Well, I don't even know if they need to do that, because the judge in this case seems to have suggested

00:27:05.360 that this is kind of a 41G action.

00:27:10.800 But do what you need to do, and at least run the argument that these records, and he doesn't need to say they're classified or unclassified.

00:27:21.860 He needs to, all his lawyers need to say is, this is the Justice Department's prior position here,

00:27:27.460 and they should explain to the court why they've changed their mind and why they're now ignoring the idea that when Bill Clinton had tapes of him talking to foreign leaders,

00:27:39.840 they didn't consider that to be classified, even though they were in his personal possession, all related to government activity.

00:27:47.640 This is just a, this is just the Justice Department going after Trump on a protectual basis, and in my view, lying to the courts.

00:27:59.160 And that's, this is why they don't like that coming out there, and that's why I'm getting attacked by MSNBC and CNN.

00:28:06.940 I just want to come back in a second.

00:28:08.660 We got Alex Jones, another throwdown up in Connecticut.

00:28:12.920 We got Benny Thompson attacked out in Iowa.

00:28:15.440 All of it next in the war room.

00:28:17.640 If you want to know what the left's real plan is for your kids, just look at the reaction to the work Patriot Mobile did in multiple school districts in the great state of Texas.

00:28:35.360 The left is losing their minds.

00:28:37.500 Patriot Mobile is America's only Christian conservative mobile phone provider and a force for conservative values.

00:28:45.060 This is because they take a portion of your bill and fund conservative causes and candidates who believe in the sanctity of life, freedom of speech, the second amendment, and guess what?

00:28:56.080 They're winning.

00:28:57.200 Patriot Mobile has affordable plans for you, your family, even your business.

00:30:26.500 I want to go back to Tom Fitton.

00:30:27.600 Tom, we're kind of pressed for time.

00:30:28.520 I just got a simple question.

00:30:29.660 I've known you for over a decade.

00:30:31.900 And you are, and I say this, my dad who died, as you know, over 100 years old, the one thing

00:30:36.560 he would contribute to all the time is Tom Fitton.

00:30:38.580 He says, this guy delivers every day.

00:30:41.120 Fitton, MSNBC is on you now because they're afraid.

00:30:44.740 Have you been wrong about anything you've said publicly?

00:30:47.540 Because I track you very closely on kind of advice or recommendations just publicly over

00:30:52.380 the last couple of years.

00:30:53.440 And are you dead right on this one too?

00:30:55.100 I mean, obviously, I believe I'm right.

00:30:58.700 You know, our analysis is almost always spot on.

00:31:02.360 And on records issues, Judicial Watch has almost 30 years experience litigating federal

00:31:07.560 records issues.

00:31:08.640 There are a few groups more experts than us.

00:31:11.540 And we've won a lot and more importantly, lost a lot.

00:31:15.360 So we know what we're talking about.

00:31:17.240 We know what we're up against.

00:31:18.520 And this Justice Department is playing games with the court and they need to be called on

00:31:24.600 it directly.

00:31:26.120 And what's wonderful about the court process thus far, you see, Judge Cannon doesn't believe

00:31:30.480 a word the Justice Department says.

00:31:32.600 And Judge Deary, thankfully, you know, I'm hesitant about the way that's been run.

00:31:39.420 But in the least, he's asking Donald Trump for direction here.

00:31:45.080 So I think if they push this argument, they're going to be successful.

00:31:51.040 And you know why they're going to be successful?

00:31:53.140 Because the Justice Department's argument up until President Trump.

00:31:58.200 Tom, how do people get to Judicial Watch and how do they follow you on social media, brother?

00:32:03.060 At JudicialWatch.org, JudicialWatch.org.

00:32:06.140 And, of course, we're online at Twitter and Facebook, at Tom Fitzpatrick, at JudicialWatch.

00:32:12.100 Get her. 0.58

00:32:13.020 By the way.

00:32:13.400 I'm on, you know, everywhere.

00:32:15.860 Get through social.

00:32:18.660 People have got to go to Judicial Watch.

00:32:22.920 They throw me off TikTok.

00:32:24.020 I'm off.

00:32:24.400 They're thrown off TikTok.

00:32:26.820 Go to Judicial Watch.

00:32:28.360 You've got to see the great work they're doing.

00:32:29.880 Fitton is main battery, as I call it.

00:32:31.880 Chris Hayes, second or third tier, not a chance.

00:32:34.040 By the way, in the entire history, we're coming up in the third year of the War Room.

00:32:37.900 In the entire history of the show, I don't think we've had a power half hour like we've got now.

00:32:43.140 I've got Tom Fitton at Judicial Watch.

00:32:44.900 Alex Jones is on deck.

00:32:45.980 And then I've got Benny Johnson.

00:32:47.920 Tom, thank you so much for joining us, brother.

00:32:49.980 Glad to see you're living rent-free in Chris Hayes' head.

00:32:53.300 Yeah.

00:32:55.440 So, Alex Jones.

00:32:57.180 Alex, Tish James went after Trump today and a quarter of a billion dollars to put him in bankruptcy.

00:33:02.160 You know how that feels.

00:33:04.040 Walk me through, first off, your perspective of the lawfare, that the Justice Department, the FBI, Tish James, all of it, is coming after the MAGA leadership, sir, including yourself.

00:33:17.380 Well, there's no better club to be in.

00:33:20.180 It's similar to John Hancock signing his name so big on the bottom of the Declaration of Independence.

00:33:26.520 And whoever signed that, they knew it was going to be targeted by King George III.

00:33:31.180 And so I don't like being attacked.

00:33:32.820 It's not enjoyable.

00:33:33.560 But I know that the more I'm under attack, the more effective I am.

00:33:38.200 So I'm a little bit jealous of you being under such attack.

00:33:40.200 And I'm glad you are literally ahead of me, even in the tip of the spear.

00:33:43.840 But whether it is President Trump, whether it's Mike Lindell, whether it is Steve Bannon, whether it is Alex Jones, whether it is Trump lawyers that actually do their job and tell the truth, we're all under massive attack.

00:33:56.600 And Letitia James came after me two years ago, and she put the feds on me. 1.00

00:34:01.780 And that was a whole thing that never really went public because it got dealt with.

00:34:05.740 But I know they're doing other things that I have not liberty to get into right now.

00:34:09.320 I told you probably about it a few weeks ago when we were during a break.

00:34:12.740 But they are literally just going down the line of anybody that's pro-America, anybody that's just loyal to the country.

00:34:19.640 And quite frankly, I'll say it.

00:34:20.940 I'm loyal to my grandparents.

00:34:22.100 They were just badass patriots, World War II veterans, and my other family, the military.

00:34:29.240 And I just won't let them flush this country down the toilet.

00:34:32.060 So I'm not doing something heroic.

00:34:34.140 I know you feel the same.

00:34:35.480 We're doing our duty.

00:34:36.800 And so so many Americans, not your audience that's totally awake, but a lot of Americans say, where are the patriots?

00:34:42.360 Why don't people fight back?

00:34:43.900 Why don't they stand up?

00:34:44.860 Well, it's because in this dark time for America, they come after you.

00:34:48.440 But we see the global awakening.

00:34:50.420 We see nationalists and populists getting elected in Sweden and becoming the leader of the Conservative Party.

00:34:57.260 He's got the votes right now to defeat Trudeau in Canada.

00:35:00.860 We see Brazil.

00:35:02.680 We see so many other cases.

00:35:04.120 Italy are now moving to elect a right-wing anti-globalist.

00:35:07.700 And so when we expose the globalists as the multinational new communist threat, but a corporate fascist threat using communism for control and their SCGs and their systems and the Clinton Global Initiative and the World Economic Forum, we're over the target.

00:35:23.040 So I signed on for this.

00:35:24.460 I don't enjoy it at a fleshly level.

00:35:27.100 It's not fun to be attacked and demonized and lied about and be up against bullies.

00:35:31.400 But at the end of the day, spiritually, I'm very strong because I see the victory we're having.

00:35:35.720 Just like you said on my show a few weeks ago, you've never been more alive.

00:35:39.620 You've never felt more satisfied.

00:35:40.780 And it's not some sadomasochistic urge.

00:35:44.180 It's that we're trying to be like our ancestors because they measured up.

00:35:48.620 We've got to measure up.

00:35:50.060 And as an example of us being persecuted, just like the Alamo, you know, Santa Ana in Texas in 1836, he slaughtered a bunch of people, outnumbering them 20 to 1.

00:35:59.700 It would scare Texas.

00:36:01.220 Well, it had the opposite effect.

00:36:02.680 It's like Hitler stopped bombing military targets when Britain wouldn't roll over during the Blitz and started attacking civilian targets. 0.53

00:36:09.560 And so we've got to go through this.

00:36:11.720 It's not fun.

00:36:12.560 But victory is literally in sight right now.

00:36:15.780 And that's why they're so desperate.

00:36:17.080 As you said, when they were perp-walking you ridiculously, as you probably walked through, you said, I've only begun to fight, quoting John Paul Jones, the founder of the U.S. Navy.

00:36:25.820 And you said this is the dying scream of this corrupt globalist system.

00:36:30.300 It is.

00:36:30.780 My concern is I don't like Putin.

00:36:33.620 I don't like what Russia's doing. 0.97

00:36:34.820 But at the same time, Biden's been using, back when he was vice president, as you know, Ukraine is a money laundering haven.

00:36:41.000 We know Ukraine's got blackmail on him. 0.87

00:36:42.780 $70 million now. 0.96

00:36:44.680 Putin's getting his butt kicked, so he's committed 300,000 war troops and threatened a nuclear war. 0.96

00:36:50.120 So empires, when they're losing, start wars. 0.99

00:36:53.860 And then empires tend to die attacking Russia, whether it was the Nazis, whether it was Napoleon.

00:36:58.760 So this is a very critical time, a very, very dangerous time right now.

00:37:02.260 I'm just honored to be amongst folks like yourself here, and very blessed to be talking to your audience.

00:37:06.080 Instead of saying, my lunch is giant.

00:37:07.680 They're amazing.

00:37:08.240 They're incredible.

00:37:08.960 But I've got to give the credit to your audience for 80% of the success of The Great Reset in the War for the World.

00:37:14.000 It's been off and on the last three weeks.

00:37:15.960 The number one book in the world.

00:37:16.780 It's like number six today.

00:37:18.080 Every time we come on your show, it goes right to number one.

00:37:20.760 So you've got the most amazing audience, Steve, of real patriots.

00:37:23.840 This is the tip of the spear.

00:37:25.300 Well, look, the book has resonated, members.

00:37:27.400 The Great Reset in War for the World.

00:37:28.980 You can get it at Amazon.

00:37:29.980 It's a – and from the conference we had with Charlie Kirk, the great Charlie Kirk, this weekend, the book, of course, you made an appearance, Alex.

00:37:36.620 The book was just incredible, and people love it.

00:37:38.860 I just want to go to something everybody's been asking me.

00:37:40.940 Given we're in the run-up for five or six weeks, I think 48 days from the most important midterm election since 1862, are they trying to pile on Alex Jones now so that you've got too much?

00:37:50.280 I mean, you're doing the show.

00:37:51.400 You're totally focused.

00:37:52.320 You're over the target.

00:37:53.700 But are they – I mean, the timing of these things just looks bizarre.

00:37:57.400 Was this just happenstance that this would happen to you in the run-up of 48 days to go that you're in another one of these situations in the court, sir?

00:38:07.420 It was all totally coordinated.

00:38:11.220 If you look at the spectrum of 28 years on air, Sandy Hook was less than one-tenth of 1%, but they've entered into evidence in Texas and Connecticut's 24 minutes of me when the internet was questioning it.

00:38:21.700 I questioned it a few times.

00:38:23.280 They made me the Sandy Hook guy once Hillary was running against Trump.

00:38:26.540 She ran against Trump with ads, with edited videos of me, acting like I was Trump's brain, when we all know Trump's his own brain.

00:38:32.420 If anybody was his brain, it was you and Stephen Miller.

00:38:35.120 And so I'd love to be his brain, but I wasn't. 0.74

00:38:37.760 So they made me this demon that Trump supported. 0.94

00:38:41.600 And then once he got elected, they went even crazier.

00:38:44.100 And so for four years, they kept us in discovery.

00:38:46.860 And the judges strung it out and demanded record-level discovery.

00:38:52.120 And then they coordinated down to the days about six months ago, about eight months ago, and said, okay, we're going to have this August trial in Texas.

00:39:03.160 And we're going to have this September trial in Connecticut.

00:39:05.900 And then we're going to have this November trial in Texas again, the same law firms, same groups that are running the lawsuits against all the gun manufacturers, big Democratic Party law firm with Senator Blumenthal basically heading it up.

00:39:18.340 And it's all completely coordinated, same tactics, same lies, same BS.

00:39:22.580 And so they took Adam Lanza, who killed the kids at Sandy Hook, and just moved it to Alex Jones and the Republicans, and then just totally misrepresent.

00:39:30.140 People say your lawyers are terrible.

00:39:32.200 No, they're ordered in pretrial conferences and morning meetings.

00:39:35.780 You can't bring up Hillary Clinton.

00:39:37.720 You can't say your client's innocent, or we'll sanction you.

00:39:40.560 And they have sanction hearings for my lawyers going on in Texas and Connecticut.

00:39:44.140 And so it's all extremely coordinated and crazy.

00:39:49.420 And that's just where we are.

00:39:51.440 And so I'm here in Connecticut right now.

00:39:52.820 They have people, HBO, following us around.

00:39:55.300 They've got just people threatening us.

00:39:57.960 It's totally insane.

00:39:59.380 And they're doing it to try to pull me off the midterms.

00:40:03.340 And they said in their opening statements here last week in Connecticut and a month or five weeks ago in the opening statements in Texas,

00:40:09.920 they said, our mission is to take him out, silence him, and never let him rebuild his platform again.

00:40:22.120 And most importantly, they said, and stop other people like him next.

00:40:27.240 He is the template.

00:40:28.280 And they mentioned Tucker Carlson in the interviews on MSNBC and CNN.

00:40:32.520 They mentioned Steve Bannon, Donald Trump.

00:40:34.600 Now, anybody that goes against their fraudulent narrative, whether it's two men can have a baby or two women can have a baby or open borders is good or any of this.

00:40:43.340 Now they're talking about criminal charges against the Santas of Florida and, of course, the governor of Texas as well,

00:40:49.800 for simply taking people who are already here illegally and shipping them to Martha's Vineyard and the Naval Observatory in D.C.

00:40:57.780 So this is full weaponization.

00:41:00.140 When Trump says weaponization, when you say weaponization, folks, this is weaponization.

00:41:03.760 It's okay.

00:41:04.440 Steve Bannon will never give up fighting.

00:41:06.180 I'll never give up fighting, but I got to tell you, folks, it's lies in the media of hundreds of millions of dollars.

00:41:10.820 We are out of gas.

00:41:12.240 The audience is bigger than ever despite the platforming, but we need support at InfoWars.com.

00:41:16.940 Steve Bannon at the War Room needs support.

00:41:18.720 You want champions.

00:41:19.840 You want fighters.

00:41:20.860 Folks, we're born for this.

00:41:22.180 We love America.

00:41:22.900 We love you.

00:41:23.880 We're just asking, aid us in this fight.

00:41:25.640 We're on the front lines.

00:41:27.060 But those of you that support us with word of mouth, with prayer and financial support, you are just as critical as Tom Fenton or Steve Bannon.

00:41:34.160 Without you folks, we'll never give up.

00:41:36.560 We'll never give in, but we could give out.

00:41:39.440 And I am very close to the breaking point.

00:41:41.820 I'll just be honest with that because we're so close.

00:41:43.440 Once again, Alex, where do people go for support?

00:41:47.900 And everybody's got to go to Amazon to get the Great Reset and the War for the World.

00:41:51.580 And we're going to get you back on here.

00:41:52.640 We've got time to talk about that in the president's executive order.

00:41:55.400 But where do people go right now for support, Alex?

00:41:58.900 Well, they can just go to InfoWarsStore.com.

00:42:00.860 We've got great T-shirts, books, films, T-shirts, all that.

00:42:03.780 And the biggest thing I care about is just spreading the word.

00:42:06.600 The propaganda, as the Internet sings, says the propaganda would not be necessary if the situation was hopeless.

00:42:13.260 Things aren't hopeless.

00:42:14.220 In fact, the globalists are a dying organization.

00:42:17.140 Everywhere people are turning against them, as you said, Leticia James is behind in polls in a state that goes totally Democrat. 1.00

00:42:23.340 All they can hope for is election fraud and outlawing their opposition.

00:42:27.680 I said it a year ago.

00:42:28.500 You said it a year ago.

00:42:29.860 But Biden's officially trying to outlaw his political opposition.

00:42:32.980 This is real tyranny.

00:42:34.140 And tyranny is the norm around the world.

00:42:36.120 America and a few other free countries were very special experiments.

00:42:40.260 That's why everybody wanted to come here.

00:42:41.680 But they can't have a global world government if there's a few free countries left that people aspire to.

00:42:46.580 So that's why America is the battleground for the future.

00:42:49.920 It's the battleground for victory.

00:42:51.200 It's the battleground for defeat.

00:42:52.680 This can be the viewers and listeners of the literal tent of the spear, the war room, that are going to decide right now whether we stand and win or whether we fall.

00:43:00.880 We're very close to winning, folks.

00:43:02.240 But I can tell you, you see what they're doing to all of us.

00:43:04.820 We need your word of mouth, your prayer, your support right now.

00:43:08.700 Alex Jones, go with God.

00:43:10.220 We look forward to having you back on here.

00:43:11.980 You're a patriot, sir, and you are a hero.

00:43:13.820 Alex Jones at InfoWars.com and also the war, the great reset in the war for the world.

00:43:19.580 Go to Amazon right now.

00:43:20.660 Alex, thank you very much for taking time away to join us.

00:43:24.080 Okay.

00:43:24.280 A vicious assault last night at the University of Iowa with one of the rising stars, one of the most important people in this rising generation of warriors, fighters, and patriots.

00:43:36.000 Benny Johnson joins us next in the war room.

00:43:37.840 Americans are discovering that if we want to change this nation, we have to change the way the marketplace works.

00:43:52.560 Look, woke corporations are seeking to divide us. 0.94

00:43:54.740 Big banks are freezing the accounts of people who disagree with their political views.

00:43:59.260 And our supply chain is dependent upon countries that actively work against our values, like the Chinese Communist Party.

00:44:06.400 It's time for a change.

00:44:08.080 And that change starts with you and your wallet.

00:44:10.960 That's why I'm proud to partner with Public SQ, the largest network of patriotic, freedom-loving businesses and consumers our nation has ever seen.

00:45:09.760 Do this today.

00:45:18.540 Oh my God, I love it!

00:45:21.700 Okay, welcome back.

00:45:38.800 I want to go to Benny Johnson now.

00:45:40.080 One of the strongest voices in this rising generation of reporters and commentators.

00:45:46.220 Benny, that was University of Iowa in a college.

00:45:48.540 What happened last night?

00:45:49.400 That was extremely dangerous, and it looked to me like there was not a lot of security there.

00:45:54.520 So walk our audience through what happened last night, and what's the update from today?

00:45:59.240 Yeah, isn't it incredible that you need security to just walk in public these days?

00:46:03.480 I know that you have some great security.

00:46:04.780 Maybe I should call your guys, Steve.

00:46:06.620 We are doing a tour right now.

00:46:08.420 We're on the war room.

00:46:09.560 We're doing a tour called the Meme Wars across the country right now.

00:46:13.420 So much of the battle is mimatic for the soul of the internet and for the information that young kids are able to access.

00:46:21.060 They love getting their information from memes.

00:46:22.940 Memes are funny.

00:46:23.700 The entire internet is built on memes.

00:46:25.400 And so the Meme Wars is us going to college campuses around the nation.

00:46:29.240 We're in Nashville right now.

00:46:30.700 We're going to do a speech here in Nashville and then in Knoxville tomorrow talking about the power of memes and how much we love memes, how important memes are for conservatives in order for conservatives to capture a new generation and to speak to young kids.

00:46:44.900 We were doing that presentation and in the middle of the presentation, somebody was so offended by the meme that they got up, screamed that we were racist and then kicked over the projector, smashing the projector so that we couldn't continue our presentation.

00:47:04.340 Now, what's interesting about this clip is that the meme that we were playing is Kamala Harris welcoming a bus of criminal migrants to her lawn as tasteful mariachi music plays in the background.

00:47:15.980 So he wasn't upset that Kamala Harris won't welcome criminal migrants into the Naval Observatory. 0.69

00:47:23.040 He wasn't upset that Barack Obama won't open his 30 acre mansion compound in Martha's Vineyard.

00:47:28.100 He wasn't upset that Joe Biden regularly uses racial terms and slurs and says that you can't be black if you don't vote for him.

00:47:35.260 He was upset that we were making fun of those people who presumably he supports.

00:47:39.760 And so then he smashed the projector.

00:47:41.620 It was an act of violence.

00:47:43.160 He was thankfully arrested.

00:47:45.280 And to our knowledge, this is the first meme hate crime arrest in American history.

00:47:51.480 Look, Benny, here's the thing.

00:47:52.940 I mean, you're as bad as straight as they get as far as family and your show.

00:47:56.700 I've been ahead the honor of being on your podcast.

00:47:59.020 Very straightforward.

00:48:00.280 The meme is really satire and parody.

00:48:03.980 You guys are the farthest thing from people, you know, banging on shields or anything.

00:48:08.140 This is what I don't get.

00:48:09.260 What triggers somebody?

00:48:10.960 Because I got to tell you, if he had just pointed, you know, two degrees over, it had been right at you.

00:48:16.100 What triggers a guy when you're sitting there about parody and making fun of people, but in a way that's not aggressive, not threatening, nothing with violence?

00:48:28.240 This is what I don't understand.

00:48:29.240 Why Benny Johnson and why the college kids are sitting there looking like they were enjoying it and learning something?

00:48:34.680 So I like to relate it to a party.

00:48:38.960 People like to go to a party where people are having fun, where people are laughing, where people are gathering.

00:48:43.060 And memes is a place where people can go do that online.

00:48:45.500 It's a way to attract young people and energy into the movement.

00:48:48.720 We have memes on our memes on our shirt.

00:48:51.040 I'm wearing a Clarence Thomas meme right now.

00:48:53.120 So it's a lifestyle and it's something that's very important.

00:48:58.320 Enormous number of kids, young kids get their knowledge of the world and information through memes.

00:49:04.500 And the reason that the left hates them so much and wants to ban memes and then freaks out and wants to attack people who are sharing memes is because they're Marxists.

00:49:13.680 And Steve, you know, as we discussed on my podcast, this is a spiritual battle.

00:49:18.800 And it's a spiritual battle between darkness and light.

00:49:22.120 And these people are so dark in their souls and they don't have humor.

00:49:25.540 They don't have what they have lost the capacity to laugh.

00:49:28.320 They've lost the capacity to be have any enjoyment of life.

00:49:34.420 They have darkness in their souls.

00:49:36.620 And so when they are presented with us ridiculing them and ridicule is, I think, possibly the most powerful political tool there is.

00:49:43.440 When we are when they're presented with the ridicule of their heroes, they don't know how to process it.

00:49:48.400 They they they snap and this person snapped.

00:49:52.120 It was violent.

00:49:53.200 We're going to have now protection for the rest of the tour.

00:49:56.580 Very sad.

00:49:57.640 That has to be the case.

00:49:59.280 But they snap because they are lost souls and because their souls are darkened.

00:50:03.880 They can't handle the fact that we're laughing at them.

00:50:05.940 And that's ultimately the point.

00:50:06.940 We're laughing at that.

00:50:07.880 We're making fun of them.

00:50:09.280 We don't take them seriously and we don't take their threats seriously. 1.00

00:50:12.760 And we think they're they're sad, little low testosterone soy boys all, you know, all hopped up on Keith Oberman tweets and they're pathetic losers. 1.00

00:50:22.440 And so I watched this man's last little drop of testosterone evaporate as he spun into a induced rage like a man child. 0.99

00:50:33.220 So I want people to know about supporting this tour.

00:50:37.900 And I don't know if the security reason might not give it up.

00:50:40.100 But where do people tonight's Nashville?

00:50:41.720 Can you get some details of everybody's our huge posse in Nashville can turn up or you already have to have tickets?

00:50:48.020 I want people to find out more about this tour because there are as many people to go as possible because it's this thing about memes is amazing and quite enlightening to people.

00:50:57.140 So it's the Memores tour.

00:51:00.360 We're going to be in Nashville tonight.

00:51:01.940 We're going to be in Knoxville tomorrow.

00:51:03.480 We're going to be in Naples, Florida, and then in University of Central Florida.

00:51:07.940 And then we're going to go to California, which we're really looking forward to.

00:51:10.820 We're going to go to Yorba Linda.

00:51:11.860 We're going to go to UC Santa Barbara.

00:51:13.640 And that happens next week.

00:51:15.080 You can find all that information at BennyJohnson.com backslash tour.

00:51:18.460 You can also follow along on our podcast every day where we give you the updates of how the tour is going and exactly what technology has been smashed by the left.

00:51:30.960 And unfortunately, Steve, this is not anything that is even remotely rare.

00:51:37.300 You have Republicans that are being hunted down and literally killed in North Dakota.

00:51:42.480 We count ourselves lucky and we'll thank our angels essentially for surviving yesterday.

00:51:48.260 The man could have had a knife or a gun or anything.

00:51:50.940 So meme hate crime.

00:51:53.080 He was arrested and we thank the police.

00:51:56.680 Do you have – but you do have security now?

00:51:58.320 People should know and even the bad guys know you're going to have security at these events.

00:52:02.340 We do have well-armed security.

00:52:04.700 They're incredible.

00:52:06.700 Benny Johnson, thank you very much.

00:52:08.420 Be safe, sir.

00:52:09.880 You're a very valuable asset in this great patriotic war.

00:52:13.460 So thank you very much for joining us and be safe.

00:52:16.160 Thank you, Steve.

00:52:17.840 Look at that.

00:52:18.520 From Tish James to what's happening to Alex Jones to Benny Johnson, I'm telling you, they're violent.

00:52:24.260 Got to be very careful.

00:52:25.860 Okay, we're going to take a short commercial break.

00:52:27.660 We've got back.

00:52:28.280 We've got Jim Hoft.
