Bannon's War Room - Episode 2383： Live From Am Fest; The Battle For Speaker

00:00:01.000 This is the primal scream of a dying regime.

00:00:06.000 Pray for our enemies, because we're going to medieval on these people.

00:00:11.000 You're just not going to free shot all these networks lying about the people.

00:00:15.000 The people have had a belly full of it.

00:00:17.000 I know you don't like hearing that.

00:00:18.000 I know you've tried to do everything in the world to stop that,

00:00:20.000 but you're not going to stop it. It's going to happen.

00:00:22.000 And where do people like that go to share the big line?

00:00:26.000 Mega media.

00:00:27.000 I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.

00:00:33.000 Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?

00:00:37.000 If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.

00:00:43.000 War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Back.

00:00:46.000 Okay, live. We are in Phoenix, Arizona at Turning Point USA's America Fest.

00:00:58.000 I've got my wingman here, Natalie Winters.

00:01:00.000 We finally got her off the beach of Palm Beach.

00:01:03.000 It takes a lot to get Natalie to the desert.

00:01:05.000 It's not easy.

00:01:06.000 Very true.

00:01:07.000 So thank you. You've been here for a couple of days.

00:01:09.000 Give me the sense.

00:01:10.000 I've got Father Frank Pavone and Steve Cortez, Ben Harnwell to TSL,

00:01:14.000 but give us a sense.

00:01:15.000 You've been here for the last couple of days.

00:01:16.000 Give us a sense of what really is, if not the most important conservative

00:01:22.000 gathering of the year in the top one or two.

00:01:25.000 It's conservative Davos here, I think.

00:01:27.000 Not as cold, but still pretty cold.

00:01:30.000 But no, it's been absolutely fantastic.

00:01:32.000 I don't think any amount of FBI collusion or DHS censorship operations

00:01:36.000 are going to be able to kind of quell the misinformation

00:01:39.000 that's coming out of this event.

00:01:41.000 People are really, really excited to be here,

00:01:43.000 and people are really, really educated on the issues.

00:01:45.000 I was really surprised by that.

00:01:47.000 I mean, I know the War Room Posse is very well informed,

00:01:49.000 but it seems like people are really, really well-versed,

00:01:51.000 not just on the issues facing them,

00:01:53.000 but up-to-date on what's happening at the RNC,

00:01:56.000 with the election battles here in Arizona.

00:01:58.000 Really full-spectrum dominance, as I would call it.

00:02:01.000 So it's really, really nice to see how invigorated and into it everyone here is.

00:02:05.000 That's one of the great things about coming to these conferences.

00:02:07.000 You get to network, you get to meet people.

00:02:09.000 But I tell you, the watchword here is how informed the audience is.

00:02:12.000 And Natalie, you know, that's one of the things we try to do at the War Room,

00:02:15.000 is make sure people understand the inside baseball

00:02:18.000 unlike the big fight for the speakership.

00:02:20.000 Why that's important.

00:02:21.000 What's at stake here with the omnibus bill?

00:02:23.000 What's going on with Cary Lake, right?

00:02:25.000 And, of course, everything with the vaccines, all of that.

00:02:29.000 And you're right, the people are really up to speed on all the information.

00:02:32.000 The reason is they want the immersive experience,

00:02:34.000 and that's what we give them here at the War Room.

00:02:36.000 Look, we're live, so we're going to be making this up as we go along.

00:02:39.000 We're going to call a lot of audibles.

00:02:41.000 Matt Gaetz, Lauren Boebert, Mike Lindell.

00:02:45.000 We've got a ton of people who are going to be in and out of our set today.

00:02:48.000 And, of course, Charlie Kirk will relieve us at noon.

00:02:52.000 And, actually, Charlie's going to do it from the same set.

00:02:54.000 So we're going to have some change over with Charlie live.

00:02:57.000 So AmFest, we're going to be calling audibles.

00:02:59.000 So the first one we want to do is bring in Father Frank Pavone.

00:03:03.000 This story was the lead story on Daily Mail yesterday about, really, the top priest in our country,

00:03:10.000 and particularly the top priest who for 50 years or 40 years of his life dedicated to reversing Roe v. Wade.

00:03:17.000 He got it done.

00:03:18.000 And then over the weekend we got the word that the Vatican, and particularly the Pope,

00:03:22.000 and Ben Harnwell called this as soon as it came out.

00:03:24.000 The Pope very specifically, I guess, took being a priest away.

00:03:28.000 Let's bring in Father Frank Pavone.

00:03:30.000 Father Frank, thank you for joining us this morning in the War Room.

00:03:33.000 Hey, Steve, it's a pleasure to be with you.

00:03:35.000 I wish I was there in person with you.

00:03:37.000 So, well, we're going to try to work on that.

00:03:40.000 I think the audience here would love to see you personally, love to see you on the main stage.

00:03:44.000 Walker, look, you've dedicated your life to the unborn.

00:03:48.000 You've dedicated your life to turning around Roe v. Wade. 0.64

00:03:51.000 You worked.

00:03:52.000 You were the guy in the vineyard on the cloudy days when it looked like it was a forgotten issue.

00:03:57.000 There was no way it could be reversed.

00:03:59.000 You had really one of the biggest political victories in American history just a couple of months ago at the Supreme Court.

00:04:06.000 Tell us what happened over the last 24, 48 hours.

00:04:09.000 How did the Pope come in and say, hey, you're no longer a priest?

00:04:15.000 Well, Steve, this is the culmination of something that's been going on for 21 of the 40 some odd years that I've been working in pro-life leadership.

00:04:24.000 There are some in the church that don't like what we do.

00:04:27.000 They don't like that we focus on abortion as the main issue.

00:04:30.000 We show people what an abortion is.

00:04:32.000 We're not apologetic.

00:04:33.000 You know, one bishop said, Father Frank, you're too aggressive on abortion.

00:04:36.000 I said, well, when abortion stops being so aggressive on the babies, then you come and talk to me.

00:04:41.000 But, you know, we have compassionate healing ministries and so on.

00:04:45.000 And the fact of the matter is it's been a 21 year battle.

00:04:48.000 Just like there's a deep state, there's a deep church.

00:04:51.000 And there are those who, just like we see in the political arena, they'll make up stories.

00:04:55.000 They'll launch fake investigations.

00:04:57.000 They've been trying to cancel me for over two decades.

00:05:00.000 It hasn't worked.

00:05:01.000 They started by just trying to give me a different assignment.

00:05:04.000 They said, oh, you can't do full time pro-life work anymore.

00:05:07.000 I said, well, this is a matter of my conscience and the work is succeeding and it's saving lives.

00:05:11.000 So I would ask permission to keep doing it.

00:05:14.000 So they couldn't stop that.

00:05:15.000 Then they tried to discredit the organization.

00:05:17.000 They did the usual things, all financial questions and whatnot.

00:05:20.000 That didn't work because we've always had clean audits and we publicized them.

00:05:24.000 So then they said, well, the only thing left to cancel this guy is to take away his priesthood itself.

00:05:29.000 So Patrick Zurich, Bishop of Amarillo, he deserves some pushback on this.

00:05:35.000 He's been the ringleader and they've been trying to complain, but it's just the constant complaint machine.

00:05:42.000 Despite the fact that we're doing work that so many of our viewers support, some of these bishops just don't want to hear any of it.

00:05:49.000 And so they weaponize the procedures within the church, just like we see the Democrats weaponizing procedures within the government to sideline those they hate.

00:06:00.000 Let me ask you an uncomfortable question.

00:06:03.000 My question is because I thought life was a central tenet of the Christian faith and the underpinnings of the Judeo-Christian West and your focus really that your maniacal focus, which had to happen in order to reverse the slaughter of the innocence.

00:06:20.000 How could that not be a top priority for the hierarchy of the church?

00:06:25.000 And was this effort to remove you basically related to Roe v. Wade being reversed?

00:06:31.000 And all of a sudden you became in the in the rest of the right to life crew became an uncomfortable, you know, adjunct.

00:06:39.000 All of a sudden the Democratic left was going to make that a major campaign issue in twenty twenty two. 0.98

00:06:44.000 And they want you guys to go away.

00:06:46.000 And the way to make you go away is take out the leader of this movement, Father Frank Pavone.

00:06:51.000 It's it's it's partially that, you know, Steve, I think it's related more to the way that Roe v. Wade got reversed, which, as you know, well, you and I know.

00:06:59.000 And so many who, you know, worked with President Trump, if it weren't for his election, if it weren't for his steadfastness in getting those three Supreme Court justices on the bench, this would not have happened.

00:07:12.000 And he told us that in 2016, he said, if I get to appoint two or three justices, Roe v. Wade will be reversed automatically because these justices are going to respect the Constitution.

00:07:22.000 They these some of these bishops have been angry at me for my support of Donald J. Trump and for the fact that I told them all the way up to the pope himself.

00:07:31.000 I told them I will not back away from supporting the most pro-life president of the United States.

00:07:36.000 That's got them enraged. They know I'm going to continue to support Trump and then the policies that all of us believe in in the MAGA movement.

00:07:45.000 And so that really is the crux of the matter here.

00:07:49.000 Have you been walk us through where you confront it before about Trump?

00:07:55.000 Did they tell you to back off? Because one of the things they put out was blasphemous social media posting.

00:08:00.000 Is it because you came on War Room because the fact that you supported Trump?

00:08:05.000 There's the support for Trump. They challenged me about that along the way, several points along the way.

00:08:11.000 You know, both in the in both campaigns, I was on the advisory boards for Catholic issues and for pro-life issues.

00:08:17.000 And in the second campaign, they told me, oh, you can't have an official title.

00:08:21.000 You know, I was national co-chair of pro-life voices for Trump very proudly.

00:08:25.000 And so the Vatican said, oh, no, you can't. Priests can't do that.

00:08:29.000 So I said, OK, you know, the campaign is fine with that.

00:08:31.000 They don't you know, I don't have to have an official title.

00:08:34.000 But then they were very happy, you know, that that I made that change.

00:08:38.000 But then when I continued supporting the president and his policies, then they complained again.

00:08:43.000 I said, well, why don't you be honest with me? It's not about having a title.

00:08:46.000 It's not about being on a committee. It's about you don't want us supporting this this these policies and this and this president.

00:08:53.000 So they're not honest, Steve. They're not honest with me. They're not straightforward.

00:08:57.000 They behave like little children. And that's why, you know, I want to say to our viewers, you know, if the work is worthy of support, we got to move forward together.

00:09:06.000 And let's just keep doing it. I'm going to keep doing it. My board and my staff are behind me a thousand percent.

00:09:12.000 We're not going to change and we're going to keep saving lives, healing wounds and electing pro-life candidates.

00:09:19.000 When you're in conversation or in dialogue before this, before they stepped in and removed you from the priesthood, did you ever bring up the fact that Democrats like Nancy Pelosi and I think Dick Durbin and Joe Biden profess Catholics support?

00:09:37.000 I mean, the most aggressive form of abortion, plus a whole other raft of really anti-Judeo-Christian West values that they try to jam into the schools every day.

00:09:50.200 Did that conversation ever come up with these bishops and with the Vatican?

00:09:54.640 Yes, yes. And and I know, you know, it's not a dialogue the way that we would understand it.

00:10:01.380 And that's the sad thing about this. The way they've been treating me has been a one sided narrative.

00:10:06.420 I bring these things up. In fact, I've written an open letter to several open letters to the U.S. bishops about the fact that we've got to be more vocal regarding Biden, Pelosi and their kind of fake Catholics. 0.97

00:10:19.660 And I get no response. I try to initiate a dialogue. I put it out there publicly.

00:10:25.740 The voters respond. The folks that are watching us respond.

00:10:30.420 But the bishops don't respond. And I think that part of our pushback here has to say has to be, you know, each person communicating with the bishop in their own diocese and saying, listen, you guys have to get on board here.

00:10:42.100 We're on board. We're with Father Frank and the people that are pointing out these these these problems.

00:10:49.180 Why don't you get on board with us? And so, Steve, it's been a very one sided one sided narrative.

00:10:56.380 What is their problem with President Trump's not the most churchy individual, he'd be the first to admit, but he's had the back of the basic values of our civilization and has taken tough action to support that, particularly the basic tenets of the Catholic Church.

00:11:13.680 What is their problem with what is specifically their problem with Trump as you see it?

00:11:17.980 As I see it, Steve, the problem is their loyalty to their Democrat friends.

00:11:24.960 They've got the bishops are in tight with a lot of the key Democrat leaders.

00:11:29.000 And, you know, they help them out on certain social programs that are important to the church.

00:11:34.040 That's fine. But that doesn't justify giving them a free pass when it comes to abortion. 0.99

00:11:39.480 And I think they just don't want to offend their friends.

00:11:42.460 It's as simple as that. There's Democrat loyalty there.

00:11:44.800 But I pointed out to these bishops, you know, the church wouldn't be wouldn't have the freedom that we have today to do what we're doing, including in those other realms, you know, serving the poor and so forth.

00:11:55.900 If it weren't for President Trump's defense of religious liberty, he's done more for the freedom of the church than anybody.

00:12:01.420 And that includes the, you know, the very existence of ministries like mine.

00:12:05.240 And it's it's thanks to his steadfast defense of religious freedom.

00:12:09.920 So I think the bishops owe it to themselves and to him to take account of what he's done for the church and to stop the beings, you know, more loyal to the Democrats than to their own church.

00:12:23.420 What they did to you, it was so dramatic, so bold and so absolutely dead, just wrong.

00:12:28.960 Do you think this leads? Do you think this is the beginning shot of a real schism in the church?

00:12:32.440 It could be. It could be. I don't want that to happen.

00:12:37.260 In fact, Steve, there's been the pope himself has been advised that there is a better solution to the, you know, Father Frank problem.

00:12:46.020 And that is, you know, put me under a different bishop.

00:12:48.840 And in fact, the Vatican authorized that three years ago.

00:12:52.060 Like I said, this has been a long story.

00:12:53.420 People can read the whole detail of it at fatherfrankpavone.com.

00:12:57.120 I got the documentation. I got the letters.

00:12:59.160 I'm going to post everything there.

00:13:00.300 I'm just going to expose the whole thing.

00:13:02.280 But three years ago, the Vatican said, hey, just, you know, Father, you can get away from Bishop Zurich, who's been causing all this trouble, and go under a more favorable bishop.

00:13:11.120 And there are other favorable bishops willing to receive me.

00:13:14.040 And we came to an agreement.

00:13:15.820 The only problem was then the Vatican said, well, you can only do your pro-life stuff half the time.

00:13:21.100 You have to spend the other half of the time in the diocese.

00:13:23.220 And it's like, you're not getting it.

00:13:26.440 There's a movement here that I'm helping to lead.

00:13:29.700 We've got to end abortion. 1.00

00:13:31.020 We've got to overturn Roe v. Wade.

00:13:32.740 We've got to save these babies.

00:13:33.940 We've got to heal the moms that have hurt from abortion. 1.00

00:13:36.340 We've got to provide alternatives to abortion. 0.99

00:13:37.860 This is a full-time job.

00:13:39.780 And I don't – to this day, they've never explained why they said I could only do it half the time rather than full-time.

00:13:46.340 That's the nonsense that's been going back and forth.

00:13:50.280 The reason that's not – they don't want it full-time, they don't want you as leader of this movement.

00:13:54.300 I mean, you're one of the leaders of the most important religious movements in the United States.

00:13:57.960 There's just no doubt about that.

00:13:59.040 What you did was Herculean to reverse Roe v.

00:14:01.920 Everybody said it would never happen.

00:14:03.540 I've talked to people for decades.

00:14:05.540 This said it would never happen.

00:14:06.540 It was because of your efforts.

00:14:07.740 If you can hang on for one second, Father Frank, we're going to take a short commercial break.

00:14:11.220 I want to get Ben Harnwell, who's actually in Rome, and Steve Cortez into this conversation.

00:14:16.540 We're going to take a short commercial break.

00:14:17.740 We're live here at AmFest.

00:14:19.740 As soon as they open the doors, I think we're going to start getting some posse members here.

00:14:23.140 We're going to start doing interviews.

00:14:24.960 I've got Natalie Winters.

00:14:26.040 We're going to have the entire crew.

00:14:27.280 I think Mike Lindell, Matt Gaetz, Congressman Boebert.

00:14:31.560 A lot of people coming in and going to talk about the RNC, this entire really throwdown for the chairmanship.

00:14:37.280 Short commercial break.

00:14:38.120 Father Frank Pavone, Steve Cortez, and Ben Harnwell from Rome, next in the War Room.

00:14:57.400 Will the lack of a red wave during the midterms lead to a more emboldened Biden,

00:15:04.520 more wasteful government spending, higher taxes, a deepening of inflation?

00:16:06.540 Back.

00:16:06.820 Okay, welcome back.

00:16:11.960 We're live in Phoenix at the Convention Center here.

00:16:15.260 We're at AmFest.

00:16:16.120 A lot of activity today.

00:16:17.320 We're going to be in the thick of all of it.

00:16:18.660 I want to go back to Father Pavone.

00:16:21.340 Father Pavone, walk us through what the war and posse needs to do, what's your next steps, how you can be supported.

00:16:27.380 Because I've talked to hundreds of pretty prominent people in this movement in the last 24 hours, and they are of belief that this is a throwdown by the Pope and it's going to lead to a schism.

00:16:39.560 And that this is going to be, you know, this is only the opening salvo of something that's going to get very nasty and that people are not going to back down on this all because they've seen the corruption in the church.

00:16:52.240 I'm going to talk to Natalie here in a minute about the CCP and McCarrick.

00:16:55.740 Steve Cortez has some thoughts on that.

00:16:57.360 So this is, there are literally millions of people that have your back.

00:17:01.360 So what's the next step?

00:17:03.220 You know, Steve, thank you for that.

00:17:04.760 I want to ask everybody to just do something very simple.

00:17:07.860 Get the full story about this at our website, endabortion.us.

00:17:13.140 You'll see the links there.

00:17:14.960 I'll be updating it with more of what's happening.

00:17:18.340 Just help me to spread the word.

00:17:20.060 This is a matter of, you know, they say, oh, there's no appeal.

00:17:23.100 You're not a priest anymore.

00:17:24.160 And I say there is an appeal to the people, to the people of God.

00:17:27.440 So if the listeners and the viewers take the information, take a few minutes to read through it and then spread it as far as you can.

00:17:34.940 Support us because we need the bishops to see that there's an outpouring.

00:17:40.200 If they think they can get away with this, we need to prove them wrong.

00:17:44.180 And, you know, it's the same way we respond to a lot of these other problems that we're all facing.

00:17:48.260 So endabortion.us is the website.

00:17:53.080 What's your social media in case people want to, if they go to the website, give the speed to keep up with you 24-7?

00:17:59.640 FR Frank Pavone is the address on all the major platforms.

00:18:03.740 FR Frank Pavone.

00:18:04.820 FR Frank Pavone, thank you for checking in with you this afternoon and tomorrow.

00:18:10.740 Thank you very much, sir.

00:18:11.840 All right.

00:18:12.320 Thank you.

00:18:13.100 God bless.

00:18:14.660 Thank you.

00:18:15.760 FR Frank Pavone.

00:18:18.060 Cortez, let me bring you in first.

00:18:19.500 Your thoughts and analysis.

00:18:21.000 Well, you know, first, it's fascinating, I think, just during this interview to see how cheerful Father Frank is, even while he is being persecuted, certainly, in my view.

00:18:29.600 Look, this man is a hero.

00:18:31.120 He is a godly man.

00:18:32.100 And he has been a warrior who has paved the way spiritually for the political warrior, pro-life warrior, who was Donald Trump, who achieved something that for decades was thought to be hopeless.

00:18:43.240 And that is overturning of Roe v. Wade, attacking this culture of death so that we can start to rebuild a culture of life in this country.

00:18:51.080 A couple of points I would make to the audience.

00:18:53.060 One is compare and contrast the treatment of Father Pavone by the U.S. bishops with very political leftist priests.

00:19:01.260 And let me give you a couple of examples.

00:19:03.020 Father James Martin, who is a very prominent Jesuit, he is the editor-in-chief of their flagship publication, America Magazine.

00:19:10.080 He regularly spews not just leftist political leanings, but ideas that are totally contrary to Catholic doctrine.

00:19:16.860 And yet he faces no discipline at all.

00:19:18.540 As a matter of fact, quite the opposite.

00:19:19.920 He really gets amplification, both from Rome as well as from U.S. bishops.

00:19:24.480 And another example might not be as widely known in Chicago is Father Michael Flager, who is an incredibly radical leftist, I would say even Marxist activist.

00:19:34.380 Somebody who quite recently, in his Catholic church in Chicago, invited Louis Farrakhan, that merchant of hate, in to speak from the Catholic pulpit.

00:19:43.380 And yet he is a priest in good standing.

00:19:45.380 And so the lesson here, I think the takeaway from the liberal bishops, unfortunately, is you can be very political as a priest as long as it's leftist.

00:19:53.980 What you can't be is a political conservative priest like Father Pavone.

00:19:58.060 And here's what I would also like to say to Steve is why this matters to America broadly, because there might be folks out there in the audience who say, oh, I'm an evangelical or I'm not a believer at all.

00:20:05.680 This is sort of inside baseball, Catholicism doesn't matter to us.

00:20:08.940 And I would just try to persuade the audience how much it does matter to the country.

00:20:14.060 The Catholic church is by far the largest denomination in the United States.

00:20:17.520 And I would also submit to you that this country's turn towards secular humanism largely flowed out of the confusion that followed Vatican II.

00:20:26.520 So, in other words, what happened in Rome had enormous fallout for the United States.

00:20:31.040 It mattered for our culture, our politics, everything.

00:20:33.460 Even if you've never darkened the door of a Catholic church, believe me, this matters greatly to you.

00:20:38.980 Look, you were pretty adamant.

00:20:40.760 You wrote a couple of great columns on this Marriage Equality Act.

00:20:43.260 Father Martin and others in the Catholic hierarchy didn't fight this tooth and nail.

00:20:47.720 Because you were one of the few people who came out and said, hey, this is an attack on the Christian religion.

00:20:52.820 This is an attack on the fundamentals of the Judeo-Christian faith. 0.54

00:20:57.360 Walk us through that, because you didn't see these guys fighting the Marriage Equality Act.

00:21:02.140 No, the deafening silence, you know, unfortunately, there were a few brave ones out there.

00:21:06.060 Cardinal Dolan, who's somebody who's not considered to be right-wing at all, the Archbishop of New York City, he thankfully did speak out very powerfully against his act.

00:21:13.900 But in general, yes, it got very little pushback from the Catholic hierarchy.

00:21:18.260 And unfortunately, that Catholic hierarchy, here's the reality.

00:21:20.960 Young Catholic priests right now tend to be very orthodox in their religiosity, and they tend to be very conservative when it comes to politics.

00:21:27.800 But a lot of these bishops are the people who, their formative years were exactly what I was talking about before,

00:21:32.820 in the confusion in the wake of Vatican II in the 60s and 70s, and they now occupy the positions of power in the American Catholic Church.

00:21:40.120 And they didn't overwhelmingly push back against this so-called Respect for Marriage Act, which actually had nothing to do with gay marriage,

00:21:47.940 which is actually the law of the land and available everywhere in the United States.

00:21:51.780 What it really involved was a very brazen weapon that can be used by the federal government to attack any organization,

00:21:59.740 and specifically Christian organizations, who believe that marriage is what it has always been,

00:22:05.720 ordained by God, a sacred covenant union of one man and one woman.

00:22:10.880 There is now a legal weapon to go after those of us who believe in that.

00:22:14.720 And believe me, this so-called Respect for Marriage Act is going to lead to a knock on the rectory door of churches

00:22:21.180 that do not want to refuse to perform same-sex marriages.

00:22:25.360 That was the point of it.

00:22:26.540 And yet, it got 39 Republican House members.

00:22:29.520 It got 12 Republican Senate members to vote for that atrocity of a bill.

00:22:34.440 Steve, I would submit to you that if the Catholic Church were the Catholic Church of decades gone by,

00:22:39.500 if it had the kind of moral authority that it used to have,

00:22:42.160 it could have stopped that bill that's a perfect example of why the Catholic Church's weakness right now,

00:22:47.520 particularly in the hierarchy, why it matters not just for Catholics, but it matters to the country at large.

00:22:54.000 Let's play. Can we play the call? Let's play his chalk talk.

00:22:57.740 I want to get a little capital markets in before we lose Cortez. Let's go and play it.

00:23:01.760 Patriots, you're probably painfully aware of just how bad the U.S. economy is,

00:23:06.500 but you may not be aware that Biden has, in fact, created the worst economy in the developed world.

00:23:12.380 Let me show you that by the numbers in a chalk talk brought to you by Getter.

00:23:15.660 First, let's look at the performance here at home year-to-date for the technology.

00:23:19.900 NASDAQ index, minus 31% this year.

00:23:24.280 Perhaps even more alarming, though, Treasury bonds.

00:23:27.340 Normally, the flight-to-safety mechanism, the safe harbor for financial assets,

00:23:31.300 down almost as much as the NASDAQ. This combination has never happened before in American history.

00:23:37.960 Why? Because of Biden's inflation explosion, plus an economy that is crashing,

00:23:41.800 as evidenced by the latest terrible number out, Composite PMI, Purchasing Manager's Index.

00:23:47.280 These are collected all over the world. They give you a very good apples-to-apples comparison among countries.

00:23:52.540 Our number, 44, is the worst in the advanced world, for some comparison.

00:23:57.200 China, which is doing terribly, is still above the U.S. at 47.

00:24:01.160 Same with the U.K. at 49. Even Russia at war clocks in at 50.

00:24:05.500 Same for Spain and Japan. Singapore up at 56.

00:24:09.420 These numbers point to the reality, the urgency of the incoming House GOP

00:24:14.080 to start restoring our prosperity immediately.

00:24:20.780 So the Biden regime keeps telling me it's the best economy in the developed world.

00:24:25.380 Numbers show the exact opposite. Who's right? War room or the Biden regime?

00:24:31.320 Steve, as we often say, price is truth and data and evidence. Numbers are reality rather than narrative.

00:24:38.020 The reality right now is, according to the PMI, which is a key gauge, it's not like I'm

00:24:41.980 cherry-picking something that's obscure. It's a key gauge watched by traders, economists,

00:24:46.260 money managers all over the world. The U.S. is literally the worst in show.

00:24:51.240 There is not another developed economy in the world that is in as bad a shape as the United States.

00:24:56.980 And I want to push back with the numbers, with the data, because a lot of the liberal narrative

00:25:01.460 I've noticed right now, the corporate media, the White House, et cetera, is, well, these are global

00:25:05.020 forces. You know, as if we somehow are just being swept up like tumbleweeds and blown along,

00:25:09.720 and we don't have anything. Policy has little impact. That is simply not the reality. We have the worst

00:25:15.520 economy in the world.

00:25:16.940 And by the way, I would also argue that Joe Biden has created a lot of the weakness globally,

00:25:21.620 largely because of his unnecessary escalation of what should be a regional struggle in Ukraine.

00:25:26.620 But the reality is, the economy here is terrible. It's the worst in the developed world. It's

00:25:30.960 continuing to get worse. Now, I bring all that up, not just simply to depress people, because a lot

00:25:35.660 of people are very aware of this in their personal lives, but also to give the political urgency to

00:25:40.500 this incoming House GOP to start to fix this mess. We didn't make the mess, but we have to fix it.

00:25:45.960 It's imperative, because middle and lower income folks right now are barely getting by. The only

00:25:51.440 way they may be able to cope is via an explosion in credit card debt. The most recent report from

00:25:56.020 the Fed, credit card debt soared at a clip that we haven't seen in two decades in this country. So

00:26:01.300 it is a really perilous time. It's financially speaking, not a very happy Christmas, not a great

00:26:06.440 shopping season for so many Americans. So there has to be such urgency on this incoming House

00:26:11.680 GOP to start to to fight back against this created economic crisis of Joe Biden as reflected in the

00:26:19.340 numbers. If we allow if we allow Mitch McConnell to cut his deals in Shelby, it's a big story in

00:26:25.980 Politico. I've got it up on Getter right now. If we let them have this omnibus, which is a massive

00:26:30.600 stimulus, you know, it's two trillion dollars, right? Pre financing charges. Is there any way we can sort

00:26:36.780 this out if that is to pass? It will make the path incredibly more difficult. I don't want to say

00:26:41.820 impossible, Steve, because we simply have to try. But it would be a disaster and a tragedy if those

00:26:48.240 Republican weakling, quizzling senators do this to us, particularly Shelby, literally on his way out 0.95

00:26:54.140 the door. If this is his valedictory message, you know, his his swan song act for the people of

00:27:00.800 Alabama and the people of the United States. That would be absolutely shameful. He cannot do this.

00:27:06.720 Please call your senators, write your senators. It matters. This is a crucial week.

00:27:12.540 Cortez, how do people get to you on social media, sir? How do they follow you?

00:27:16.260 Yeah, please follow me on the Getter. I'm at Steve and I'm on Twitter at Cortez Steve Cortez with an S.

00:28:53.400 Here's your host, Stephen K. Back.

00:28:55.520 Okay, welcome back. We're here at AmFest in Phoenix. I have a question. The doors don't open

00:29:05.960 until nine o'clock. How did the local time? How did the posse get down here? Remnants of it get

00:29:11.440 down here at eight o'clock. How'd you do that? So we got some that said they slept here. These two

00:29:18.240 snuck in behind me. I don't know. I don't know. I can't vouch for them. What about you guys? How'd

00:29:23.000 you guys get here? I just kind of hung against a wall and just snuck right in. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:29:27.560 We got the brick. He went with the brick.

00:29:31.060 We're like the honey badgers. We don't back down. We're coming in.

00:29:34.840 I just want to give you guys a flavor of the dedication of the War Room Posse.

00:29:38.720 Sir, can you please tell me what your shirt says?

00:29:41.040 It says the War Room Posse. We came out here from Dallas, Texas, me and my man here,

00:29:44.820 just to support this show because we believe in it, believe in Steve. And I know my stuff up and

00:29:50.440 down. So what he brings is the truth. And I'm able to see that through my other resources. And he

00:29:55.760 just hits on so many subjects. We can call him the guru. And he's a teacher, professor. He just

00:30:01.480 breaks it down so good. And look at that action, action, action.

00:30:05.860 We got that. We're straddled on both sides. I'd like to introduce my new agent.

00:30:10.140 Yeah, it is. Hey, you know, the best compliment, Steve, that I heard all weekend, a lot of folks

00:30:16.640 in this crowd, the MAGA crowd, followed Rush Limbaugh for years. I grew up on Rush Limbaugh.

00:30:21.260 And I had several people come up to me and say, Steve Bannon is the new Rush Limbaugh. And to me,

00:30:26.180 that's like, and again, when I hear that, that's just like, but anyways, guys, this is what it's all

00:30:32.160 about right here. You guys are what it's all about. It's America.

00:30:35.020 Where are y'all from? Originally, California, but now the USA, because we're full-time RVers.

00:30:43.920 Oh, San Diego. San Diego. I feel like Comus, America, California.

00:30:48.160 There you go. And you're Dallas. Where are y'all from? Oklahoma.

00:30:51.840 Oklahoma. Missouri. Kansas City, Missouri.

00:30:54.980 Virginia. Virginia. Local. Scottsdale. Local. We got one local and everybody else is from

00:31:00.240 everywhere else. Amazing. What's, I want to know, what's the, what's the temperature of like for

00:31:05.220 the RNC chairmanship that people are talking about that? I think we got here, we got one

00:31:09.440 Harmeet. Okay. Who's going Harmeet? Who's going Mike? Well, I thought about it. I really like Mike,

00:31:14.140 but Harmeet makes sense because her, her background in law and she can fight that like on the, she can 0.99

00:31:19.960 fight that issue. Okay. The real question, any Ronna McDaniels, any Ronna McDaniels, raise your hand.

00:31:25.580 Oh, no. Zero. Hold it. Any Mike Lindell. Mike Lindell. Okay. We got some Mike Lindell.

00:31:31.200 How many Harmeets? It's about 65, 35. Yeah. Not too sure. What about a combination of Harmeet

00:31:38.060 and Mike Lindell as a combo? Anything but Ronna. Hang on for one second. We're going to come

00:31:45.060 back. This is the early crowd. These are the guys that snuck through the, these are the true

00:31:48.820 honey badgers. Hey, war room posse, nothing but trouble, right? Going to get into trouble.

00:31:56.600 Let's go to Rome. I want to bring in Ben Harnwell at the Vatican. Ben, you absolutely called it as

00:32:02.280 soon as this thing happened on Saturday night, you called it right away about what happened here.

00:32:07.180 The Pope did this, right? This is going to lead to a major, I think, bifurcation in the church.

00:32:13.020 Take it away, sir. Morning, Steve. Morning, Natalie. Well, yeah. I mean,

00:32:16.940 the reason was simply looking at the statements that were put out by the authorities, it was

00:32:21.400 absolutely clear that the fingerprints of Pope Francis were all over this. And of course,

00:32:27.340 digging in, looking at the canon law experts, it is the case that only the Pope can issue

00:32:33.860 a sentence like this of laicization for which there is no appeal because he himself is already

00:32:41.860 the ultimate authority. Going back to one of the questions, Steve, that you asked Father Pavone

00:32:47.660 earlier. It is absolutely clear, and it has been for many years, that all of the major existential

00:32:55.460 crises facing the Judeo-Christian West right now, the figure of Jorge Maria Bergoglio, is behind

00:33:05.220 every single enemy that the Judeo-Christian West has to confront. And the Pope himself has said

00:33:13.560 explicitly he's against people who talk about defending the Judeo-Christian West. Really, however,

00:33:20.160 I don't know how much time I have, but the key takeaway on this, I'd like to say, is that neither of the

00:33:26.480 supposed crimes which Father Pavone has been confronted with, which are disobedience and blasphemy,

00:33:33.900 merit the punishment of laicization, that is to be defraud. To be absolutely clear, he hasn't been

00:33:42.080 removed from the priesthood. In Catholic theology, that's not possible. Ordination is like baptism.

00:33:47.760 It's an indelible sacrament. It can't be taken away. Well, what the Vatican has done is taken away

00:33:53.080 Father Pavone's official sanction, if you will, official license to celebrate Mass and do all the

00:34:01.820 things that priests do. The reason I think that's interesting here is, you know, if you want me to

00:34:09.980 go into it, I can do, but all the cants, all the hypocrisy you hear from the contemporary post-Vatican II 0.70

00:34:17.880 church about the importance of the laity and the role that we're supposed to have in the Catholic church, 0.88

00:34:24.000 which these psychopaths behind us still think that being laicized is the worst form of punishment 0.78

00:34:31.780 they can put on a priest, right? That is the point I want to make. They talk all the highfalutin, 0.63

00:34:37.260 all the high-sounding words about how important the laity is. For them, being reduced to the lay 0.83

00:34:42.960 state is a punishment. These people need to be held to account.

00:34:47.960 How much is this? Is Father Frank right? Was this because he backed Donald Trump and backed up

00:34:54.640 because Donald Trump really backed the values of the Judeo-Christian West more than any president

00:34:59.280 since Ronald Reagan, sir?

00:35:02.320 Look, that is, I think, the proximate cause of this. I think there's something more deep and more

00:35:09.560 substantial going on behind this. And the next parallel I can think of is the, that I'm going to lean on

00:35:15.720 in illustrating this, is the disagreements that Archbishop Fulton Sheen had with his bishop,

00:35:22.740 his Darcyism bishop, Cardinal Spellman, back in the day. And it's the same thing. The bishops

00:35:28.440 these days, they're made up, they're like, they have queeny hissy fits if they're not taken to be

00:35:35.900 the most important person in the room. Now, I don't even remember the name of this bishop

00:35:41.280 in Texas where Father Pavone is supposed to be incarnated. Absolute nobody, right? Father Pavone

00:35:50.680 has not just like a national brand, he has a global brand. 15 years ago, when I worked in the European

00:35:56.180 Parliament, Priests for Life financed some conferences that I organized. That is how much good work they do.

00:36:03.220 So you can imagine on a personal level, when they're having these meetings, no one knows who

00:36:08.040 this Darcyism bishop is, right? And yet he's talking to someone who is, who has a following, 0.56

00:36:13.820 social media following, of many millions of people before you even start off on the issues

00:36:19.160 of church politics. That is going to rub these people because they're very shallow, right? They're

00:36:23.660 very shallow people. Their style of leadership is based on being passive aggressive, right? So you can

00:36:31.400 imagine the situation. It's not going to go down well from day one. And it hasn't done for Father

00:36:36.260 Pavone because he's very effective. And these bishops, they insist on being adored and stroked and

00:36:41.800 cultivated. And I think it's the same thing with Cardinal Spellman and Fulton Sheen 50 years ago,

00:36:48.400 60 years ago. Fulton Sheen, very holy man, had national recognition. And these guys, they don't like it.

00:36:55.220 And the most unhinged, queenie, hissy, passive aggressive psychopath in the Catholic Church today 0.99

00:37:03.340 is the guy behind me who calls himself Pope Francis. And this is a great illustration of how a fish 0.99

00:37:09.920 rots from the head down.

00:37:11.380 This is also why this is going to be a schism. Natalie, tied to McCarrick and the Chinese 0.96

00:37:18.980 Communist Party and what happened there when McCarrick cut the secret deal with the Chinese 0.53

00:37:23.560 Communist Party. And McCarrick was the American Pope and absolutely corrupt, stem to stern. 0.89

00:37:30.280 Sure. Well, what we're seeing right now is, I think it's fair to call it political persecution. And

00:37:34.200 it's no surprise because the Pope has been in business with the Chinese Communist Party,

00:37:38.020 particularly Cardinal McCarrick. He's a name you hear a lot, but he was really the point person

00:37:42.880 in negotiating the deals between the Vatican and the Chinese Communist Party. But I think people

00:37:47.920 know about his involvement with China. You know, obviously China chooses their own negotiators,

00:37:51.980 whether it's trying to get to the bottom of the origins of COVID-19 and the World Health

00:37:55.460 Organization, or even in the case of McCarrick. But what's so interesting, and of course, no surprise

00:38:00.240 to any of the war room posse, is that there's actually links to Hunter Biden there too. CEFC China

00:38:05.560 Energy, which is one of the foremost Chinese Communist Party influence groups, of which

00:38:09.900 Hunter Biden was actually a managing director of. Cardinal McCarrick had actually attended a ton

00:38:14.940 of their conferences in Washington, D.C. He was a contributor to their online magazine and some of

00:38:19.920 their other written forms of publication. So it's just a perfect example, not just how the Biden family,

00:38:25.500 it's not only Catholic in name only, but they're actively undermining the faith, really allowing 1.00

00:38:30.220 the Chinese Communist Party to subvert it. You know, Pavone said that it's a deep church, just like

00:38:35.460 the deep state, and it's exactly the same actors who are trying to undermine and subvert it. The Chinese 1.00

00:38:40.000 Communist Party, Democrats, it really is, it's just awful. This ties directly back to Cardinal Zen. I think

00:38:47.800 the holiest man in the world. Cardinal Zen on trial in Hong Kong by the Chinese Communist Party. The

00:38:52.420 Vatican will not step up for him, not have his back, right? They've cut a secret deal with the Chinese 1.00

00:38:57.760 Communist Party to allow the CCP to pick the bishops in China and to start to terrorize the

00:39:03.280 true underground church. Remember, the biggest fear Xi has in all of China is Christianity. He says it 0.99

00:39:09.580 all the time, particularly evangelical Christianity. The underground Catholic church is quite strong and

00:39:14.680 robust, but relatively small. Evangelical Christians may be 100 or 200 million in China alone. You're

00:39:21.300 seeing evangelical Christianity in Brazil, in China. It's the tip of the spear. And this is why the 0.91

00:39:26.860 Democrats freak out of this concept of Christian nationalism, right? Nothing freaks them out

00:39:30.900 more. And now you've got the Pope. And these left-wing bishops here in this country have

00:39:35.740 backed the Democratic Party. That Father Pavone is out for one reason. He's been at the forefront of

00:39:41.320 saying, hey, Donald Trump has done a tremendous job. He's put in three Supreme Court justices that

00:39:46.180 will reverse the death sentence on these innocents that has been given by Pelosi and Biden in this

00:39:52.960 radical Democratic Party. Ben Harnwell, your thoughts?

00:39:57.540 Yeah, you're absolutely right. Apart from the fact, I'd simply say it's easy to get justice in Hong Kong

00:40:03.600 because occasionally the courts do go against the CCP in Hong Kong. Easy to get justice there than it is

00:40:09.660 in the Vatican. Here, if you'll notice, with Father Pavone, presumption of guilt, no jury, no right to

00:40:17.040 confront your accusers, and zero appeal on the procedure. In England, we left this behind in 1215

00:40:27.260 with Magna Carta. That is how corrupt this institution is. And then the Pope will get

00:40:33.200 himself in front of the television cameras on the world stage and talk about justice.

00:40:40.800 Ben, real quickly, we've got about a minute. Is this going to lead to a bigger breach in the

00:40:45.080 church right now between traditional Catholics, Latin Mass Catholics, the traditional Catholics,

00:40:49.960 and Bergoglia in this corrupt crowd in the Vatican?

00:40:55.180 Absolutely, Steve. And it's already taking place, and it has been taking place for a number of years.

00:41:00.380 The one positive fruit that I will attribute to this pontificate, this so-called pontificate,

00:41:06.460 is now it is possible for faithful Catholics to come out and say in polite society that it would have

00:41:13.060 been unthinkable 20, 25, 30 years ago about the direction of the church. In fact, if you don't

00:41:19.980 want to say these truths, people will think there's something wrong with you. That is, you know, if you

00:41:24.620 will, Bergoglia has been so bad, he gives license to traditional faithful Catholics to call it as it is.

00:41:33.880 Ben, give your social media. You've got a new show that's up every couple of days. Talk about the

00:41:41.180 show. Give us your social media before you punch. Thanks, Steve. If everything is on my profile,

00:44:45.160 snuck in here before the opening. But now we've got...

00:44:50.740 I hate when they do that. Now we've got backup. Jane, the new federal state of China has made its

00:44:59.320 appearance. Take it away. Well, they are taking down the Chinese Communist Party.

00:45:04.100 All right. All right. Take down the CCP.

00:45:08.680 I am joined by Prince. Prince, can you please tell us about the new federal state of China and your

00:45:13.740 mission to take down the CCP? Thank you so much, Jane. The new federal state of China is our vision

00:45:19.600 for a free and democratic China. And we're here at AmFest 2022 to tell the entire world that the

00:45:26.940 Chinese Communist Party is the biggest existential threat, not only to America, but to humanity. 0.99

00:45:32.780 And you know why that is? Because under President Xi, the Chinese Communist Party is a godless 0.97

00:45:39.260 communist regime that actively teaches people to hate God. And I know as a man of faith that without

00:45:45.800 God, our humanity would cease to exist. So for the sake of Christianity, for the sake of humanity, 0.97

00:45:53.300 we must, and we must, and we must do it right now, take down the Chinese Communist Party. 0.66

00:45:59.720 All right. Take down the CCP. Take down the CCP. Take down the CCP. Take down the CCP. 0.82

00:46:08.200 Wow. New federal state, I got to tell you, has a huge, I think there are 40 or 50 people here today.

00:46:13.760 You got a booth. I'll be doing the TV show with them later. They're interviewing everybody. Prince,

00:46:17.560 thank you guys for coming. Stick around. New federal state of China. Let's go to Nevada.

00:46:21.700 Seagal Chata ran for the attorney general. Ma'am, you had that election stolen from you,

00:46:28.100 but now you're involved in another election. Tell us what's going on about this RNC,

00:46:32.500 the fight to be the chairman of the RNC. Ma'am, your perspective on it.

00:46:36.940 So good morning, Steve. Thank you for having me. You know, the election for the RNC is something that

00:46:44.640 I would have never had any interest in because I was a first-time candidate. You know, I came from

00:46:52.060 the litigation field. I'm a lawyer. I'm a 20-year lawyer. And, you know, this is not something that

00:46:59.040 I would have ever even been interested in, but for running for office and seeing what happened

00:47:06.140 in Nevada with the RNC. You know, last week you had a few guests on and it really piqued my interest.

00:47:15.280 One of the guests that you had on was Jeremy Hughes, who was my first consultant. And then there was,

00:47:23.320 as you know, there was a bunch of back and forth between Jeremy Hughes and Kurt Schlichter and

00:47:27.800 Amanda Milius. And, you know, I started looking into what the RNC did here in Nevada,

00:47:35.220 which was nothing but obstruction. And let me preface this by the fact that I'm not a committee

00:47:45.000 person. I was never involved in the intricacies of the party or the RNC. And I think there's a

00:47:53.440 lot that needs to be told about how the RNC functioned here in Nevada, which was from a point

00:48:00.680 of obstruction. I do believe that the RNC specifically obstructed half-hour ticket.

00:48:07.720 And it's a shame. And people need to know that.

00:48:10.900 Hold it. Hold it. Hold it. Hang on. Hang on. Hang on. Hang on. Hang on. You had Laxalt.

00:48:14.680 You had Marchant. You had yourself. You had pure fire breathers. These are three. The Laxalt for the

00:48:20.320 Senate, yourself for Attorney General. Marchant was the leader of the Coalition Plus. And you guys were up,

00:48:25.780 I don't know, 10,000, 20,000 votes before it was stolen by the Culinary Union and the Harry Reid

00:48:31.640 Organization. What do you mean the RNC wasn't helping you? What do you mean they were obstructing

00:48:36.240 you guys?

00:48:37.840 So, you know, in my particular race, and Stephen, you left out Michelle Fiore, who happens to be the 0.78

00:48:43.620 National Committee woman here in Nevada. The RNC did nothing to help the slate. And let me be very

00:48:51.740 clear. When I say obstruction, in my particular race here for AG, there was, look, I was chosen to

00:49:01.320 run by the chairman of the GOP here in Nevada. I had litigated cases against our governor. I prevailed

00:49:08.960 against our governor in the Ninth Circuit. I had litigated a few cases against the governor here.

00:49:15.340 So really what they wanted was they found an attorney. I come from a heavy litigation background,

00:49:21.720 both federal and state, criminal defense and civil. I actually sat on the bar, ethics and discipline,

00:49:31.280 for 12 years I was on the committee. So really they've kind of found a star here in Nevada to

00:49:37.000 take out Aaron Ford. So when the chairman of the GOP approached me to do this, you know,

00:49:42.360 the last thing I wanted to do was ever participate in private, from the private sector in politics.

00:49:49.300 And, you know, and everything was all fine and dandy until I started to build a narrative that I was

00:49:56.680 going to take down political corruption, because anybody who knows Nevada knows that political

00:50:01.860 corruption is rampant in our state. And it starts from the municipalities all the way to the top.

00:50:08.360 And it seemed like the tide had turned against me around July, August. I found out that my former

00:50:18.400 consultants, November Inc., were really harvesting and trying to find somebody to run against me

00:50:25.420 in the primary. And in January and February, they found that person. That person was Tisha Black,

00:50:34.800 being represented by an RNC consultant, Christy Wilkinson, who was getting paid by the RNC, was making

00:50:42.940 $81,000 from the RNC, and representing my primary opponent and getting paid by Tisha Black's campaign.

00:50:53.140 So the RNC is essentially... Hang on. Is this a problem just at the Nevada state GOP level? Are you

00:51:02.720 saying that the RNC, the national level, is where the problem is?

00:51:07.620 I think that there's a systemic problem with the RNC itself. It's either a lack of oversight or a

00:51:14.100 deliberate act to obstruct America First candidates. Now, because my race was so emblematic of what we

00:51:25.720 saw here in Nevada, that RNC consultants were essentially collaborating with, you know, more

00:51:35.160 left-wing Republicans to obstruct half the ticket. Myself, Michelle Fiore, and Michelle Fiore is the

00:51:43.260 biggest heartbreak, because she actually is an RNC committee woman. Hang on one second. Seagal 1.00

00:51:50.140 Chetal from Nevada just lost a very tough race for the Attorney General. She didn't take a short 0.99

00:51:56.720 time. Let's hear it for her. Back in a moment.

00:51:59.360 We will fight through the rocket. We rejoice when there's no more. Let's take down the CCD. 1.00
