Stephen K. Bannon joins us to discuss the latest in the ongoing government shutdown, and why it's time to call it what it is: A MAGA Fascism! Plus, we talk about why we should all be worried about what we're seeing from the right wing of the political spectrum.
00:11:06.380He's over on MSMC pontificating and, you know, pontificating, thinking deep thoughts.
00:11:11.820So it's just like Newt Gingrich Levin, all the Fox News.
00:11:14.140Hey, go ask your paymaster, the foreigners, the two brothers who are two of the most progressive business executives on God's earth with their wives,
00:11:25.340a radical globalist Davos World Economic Forum, net zero carbon, Green New Deal, a global vaccine passport, okay, businessmen.
00:12:16.040Six million people, what, three million people are coming?
00:12:17.880Three million visigoths are coming into the nation this year since you've been in power and you haven't lifted a finger except to pass a messaging bill.
00:12:26.300And then even didn't even have the common courtesy to, when you did your phony CR, he took VE Verify out.
00:13:03.400The debt deal that you did that is burying the nation, and I quote, and I quote from the Fox Business, we're going to have a depression on the levels of the 1930s brought about by what you have done.
00:13:18.280Now, Garrett Graves and McHenry with the bow tie, and, of course, the hot dog salesman, the genius McCarthy, formerly Speaker of the House, you gave Biden a second year.
00:13:32.380You gave these guys $15 trillion of spending, an unlimited deficit.
00:13:37.420We're at $2 trillion since your debt deal.
00:14:59.500For war room veterans, you know we have been all over this supply chain issue with China and medications and the active pharmaceutical ingredients.
00:15:10.700China has a stranglehold on us where there's a way to break that.
00:15:15.560I got an emergency medication kit from them.
00:15:19.380The FDA just declared a global shortage of medication and warned that critical antibiotics are in extreme short supply across the United States.
00:15:26.700But you know that because you're a viewer or listener of this show.
00:15:31.600Now, here's the action you can take to correct.
00:15:34.580Do yourself and your family a favor and get your Jace case right now.
00:15:38.860It's a pack of five prescription antibiotics you'll have on hand for common emergencies.
00:15:50.740Take a few minutes and fill out the form.
00:15:53.080Your information will be reviewed by a board-certified physician and your medication will be dispensed by a licensed pharmacy at a fraction of the regular cost.
00:16:03.800You'll be glad you have the Jace case.
00:16:32.400The trope that works for Donald Trump, I mean, he learned in 2016 that he was not only a person who, a politician, a brand new one, who could ratchet up the concerns and fears of a portion of America.
00:16:52.220And it was so successful for him for fundraising, for winning.
00:16:56.060I mean, ultimately, he won on the backs of claiming, I am, I am going to protect you from these rapists, these Mexicans who are coming across the border to kill your children.
00:17:06.440And even when he was president of the United States, he was using the old trope, go back where you came from, to, to women who were members of Congress born here.
00:17:17.740I mean, think about how much the ground, I mean, you all know this, how much the ground has shifted, as you were referring to, on all sorts of Republican talking points.
00:17:26.840Who would have thought that today we would hear Republicans describing how the Department of Justice needs to be dismantled?
00:17:35.980Pro-law enforcement was the kingpin of the Republican platform, attacking FBI agents for doing their job of investigating crimes.
00:17:47.860Pro-Russia, who would have thought Republicans would be talking about how smart and together Vladimir Putin is?
00:17:56.260Who would have thought we would be describing immigrants in the way we are?
00:18:00.100When you compare it to George H.W. Bush in a campaign event with Governor Clinton at the time, insisting that we cannot treat immigrants as, you know, guilty people who've snuck in behind the borders.
00:18:17.360We've got to embrace them and make them a beautiful part of this country, a stronger part of this country.
00:18:21.320And again, I always bring up Ronald Reagan on immigration for these people who claim that Reagan's their hero.
00:18:25.900Reagan's final speech to America said, when we stop allowing immigrants to come into this country, we become old, we become tired.
00:18:51.140Now you're hearing the happy talk spin is not, you know, and it only became.
00:18:54.320Remember, it's only when the wealthy sections in Chicago and the Upper West Side, you know, the Seinfeld part of New York, the Upper West Side, and of course, the establishment Republican Upper East Side.
00:19:04.680It's only when it became uncomfortable for them.
00:19:07.760All of a sudden, Eric Adams is down in Mexico.
00:19:11.120The radical nutcase mayor of Chicago is saying, hey, we got 17,000 here.
00:19:17.880We got, you know, we got to do something.
00:19:19.020But only when it became, only when the wealthy have had a problem.
00:19:24.740Have they care about the Hispanic Americans in the Rio Grande Valley, Laredo, Texas, El Paso, where we built the wall down there, actually on the river itself where we built it, down in Texas on the Rio Grande.
00:19:35.940They have any concern about those folks?
00:19:38.760They have any concern really about the folks in small town America that fentanyl and illegal in the illegal aliens have got at these towns, the crime, the drugs.
00:20:26.880And we know from the Inspector General report we don't know where they are because they put down McDonald's in Chicago and that's, okay, fine.
00:20:40.860Wouldn't we want to know that if these little children they're bringing in on their hips to get to 2,200 and if the dad's got one on his hip, then it's 4,500 bucks a month.
00:20:54.700Remember, here's what the con is, and you should be extreme.
00:20:57.780Well, you decide if you're going to be angry or not.
00:21:00.900The Fox News guy, the CIO, the chief, I guess, investment officer.
00:21:07.140Don't think he's chief information officer.
00:21:08.800The chief investment officer for this hedge fund, I think his name is Dahl, D-O-L-L, Bob Dahl, gives this interview.
00:21:14.480And he says, hey, you know, it's pretty straightforward to do the math.
00:21:17.300I think we've got a Great Depression coming because you're seeing a collapse of the bond market.
00:21:22.560The infrastructure of the world's capital markets and the world's financial system was based upon zero interest rates.
00:21:31.580Because in the last crisis we had, brought on by the, wait for it, the global elites, you know, Ron Susskind, who's, and he is no, he is not MAGA, let's say.
00:21:48.300He wrote a book about the early stages of the Obama administration called Confidence Men.
00:21:53.840And you just realize Obama had no idea.
00:22:00.100These guys make a conscious decision to save the elites by going to negative interest rates and flooding the zone by the Federal Reserve of liquidity to save the elites in this country.
00:22:09.860And there are discussions at the president of the Dallas Federal Reserve in these meetings at the Fed says, hey, you know, I've got a problem with this because you're going to destroy the working class and middle class if we do this.
00:22:21.660This is to protect the wealthy and we'll have the greatest concentration of wealth in mankind's history, which at the time before the CCP virus and Biden is exactly what happened.
00:22:32.040The greatest concentration of wealth is on the most progressive president of Barack Obama's watch.
00:22:37.960So don't sit here and I don't want to hear about the pro wrestling down in the forefront, all the progressive nature of you guys on MSNBC with Obama.
00:22:46.080Now, the greatest concentration of wealth allowed by government action in the nation's history at that time was on Barack Obama's watch.
00:23:03.220You never got a bailout and you've never recovered from it.
00:23:05.480There was a slight time, a golden age, a mini golden age in the Trump and particularly the year 19 when it kind of came together.
00:23:13.760You remember that low interest rates, zero inflation or low inflation, low interest rates, low gas prices, low unemployment, blue collar people.
00:23:26.720I don't need to go through the litany.
00:23:37.320And here's what they hate about the last couple of days.
00:23:39.200You finally, this is what they hated about Gates.
00:23:41.680And they're right now, the anger and vitriol of these beta males, of the beta males, because their lobbyists are telling them, hey, you want to get paid?
00:23:52.740You better get out there and get angry because they're coming to expose the system and you better stop it.
00:23:58.120The number one thing they're focused on, they send everybody home.
00:24:00.740Instead of being here working on appropriations, instead of being here working on investigations, instead of being here getting work done like every American that's slaving away under this economy, instead of doing that, no, they're back to the hinterland.
00:24:13.520So make sure you're up in their grill when you see them.
00:24:16.860Particularly my beloved South, being a Southerner, it's a disgrace of the Republican members of Congress from the South, from states like Arkansas, in Mississippi, in Alabama, in Georgia, in Texas, in Oklahoma.
00:28:41.480More than 35,000 wildfires have devastated the U.S. this year.
00:28:45.420The toxins and particles in wildfire smoke can penetrate our lungs and threaten our health.
00:28:51.140That's why EnviroClean's developed military-grade air purification for your home.
00:28:56.800And they just announced their biggest sale of the year.
00:28:59.500Save a massive 30% off during their Labor Day sale.
00:29:03.220EnviroClean's is specifically designed to wipe out airborne chemicals and viruses known to cause illness, allergies, and difficulty breathing.
00:29:12.280Even toxic gases and particles found in wildfire smoke are no match for EnviroClean's.
00:29:17.780That's why the Department of Defense chose EnviroClean's to protect the air on board our Navy combatants.
00:29:24.140EnviroClean's comes with a free professional air quality monitor so you know your family's breathing purified air.
00:29:31.920Now's the time to save 30% off your air purification unit.
00:29:36.060Get the free air quality monitor and fast, free shipping.
00:30:52.000We didn't have these issues when Trump was president.
00:30:54.420I'm thinking he did such a fabulous job.
00:30:57.160He was the greatest president of my lifetime.
00:30:59.480If he made America great again, why do we get Donald Trump to make Congress great?
00:31:03.680I mean, it seems right now we've got individuals that are vying that are going to run for Speaker of the House.
00:31:10.940I don't know if we can find consensus, find that candidate.
00:31:15.900And I just think Donald Trump would be the perfect interim.
00:31:18.920He could stay there for 14 months, be the Speaker of the House, continue to run for president.
00:31:24.640And then after January, he could just move right over into the White House where he belongs.
00:31:31.800Congressman, give me particularly your thoughts and the thoughts of your constituents down there in Texas.
00:31:37.200What are the one or two, three things that you think is most important for a new speaker to have?
00:31:44.200And then why would Donald Trump be the perfect person for that?
00:31:47.600Well, because I just believe that I think the American people, they're begging for leadership.
00:31:52.240I think when you look at how the majority of the Republican Party looks at Donald Trump with these other candidates that have run, have chosen to run for president, Donald Trump is clobbering them all.
00:32:05.840He's beaten up on the governor of Florida.
00:32:09.000He's just he's running away with this.
00:32:10.980So obviously, Donald Trump is the leader of our party.
00:32:16.980We need as a conference, a Republican conference, to to bring Donald Trump into the fold and let him continue to lead us as the American people, as the Republican Party has chosen Donald Trump.
00:33:00.720And then let's get him to be the 47th president.
00:33:03.500The mechanics of this, I take it you guys are home now and people are talking to their constituents about about their thoughts of what happened over the last couple of days.
00:33:15.120Do you there's going to be a conference?
00:33:18.580I think when you guys get back, when you guys return on because Monday, I think, is Columbus Day.
00:33:28.920Would you invite him to actually address the House conference of Republicans?
00:33:34.040Well, what I will be doing on Tuesday afternoon, I think what you saw in January of this year when we were up there and it took 15 rounds to finally nominate the speaker with Kevin McCarthy.
00:33:49.360So I think what we're going to do now is we're going to try to do this behind closed doors and try to find a candidate, just get one candidate that we can get behind and then walk out of that room united with one candidate.
00:34:06.580But I tell you, from what I'm hearing up to this point, with some members saying the eight that did the motion to vacate, I mean, we must change that rule.
00:34:16.980We can't we should have never allowed just one to be able to file that privilege motion.
00:34:22.580So there are some that are going to say we've got to change that rule.
00:34:25.160There are some that are going to say if you don't provide funding to Ukraine, I can't support you.
00:34:30.800You've got all sorts of different opinions in our conference with the 222 of us.
00:34:36.100So trying to find that consensus candidate, it could take some time.
00:34:46.580And you're arguing, you're positing that Trump could be the guy, at least on an interim basis, whether it's 100 days, I advocate 100 days, he would turn it over, get you guys sorted and then negotiate and make sure there's no on the bus,
00:35:00.300make sure there's no other CR, get the investigations going.
00:35:03.300And then I advocate he steps down one year from the time he would put his hand on the Bible in 2025.
00:35:14.020You're actually arguing he can go all the way through longer.
00:35:16.900But do you believe because obviously there's a big difference?
00:35:19.960I mean, we're huge advocates of the motion to vacate because we think it's the way the grassroots keeps Damocles' sword over the K Street lobbyists.
00:35:27.540But you're thinking that Donald Trump is a guy who can unite that entire conference?
00:35:34.140Well, I think members of Congress, and I'm doing some research on this, Steve.
00:35:39.200I'm looking at the 222 of us, and I'm going to predict a large majority, significant majority of the 222, at some point in time in their careers,
00:35:49.860whether they've been there six years, eight years, ten years, or even two years,
00:35:53.700has either endorsed Donald Trump for president or Donald Trump has endorsed them in their congressional districts.
00:36:01.200Probably some of them were begging for it because they had tough primaries, right?
00:36:05.960So if we've got a majority of the conference that has accepted their support from Donald Trump, right,
00:36:12.320and Donald Trump has supported them to get up into Congress,
00:36:15.700if that's good enough, why wouldn't he be good enough to be our speaker?
00:37:45.220I think the congressman is definitely on to something.
00:37:47.480And here's where I think it's important.
00:37:49.920President Trump's obviously running for president, and he's leading.
00:37:54.300And there's an article out today about a lot of pressure now on the Republican establishment,
00:38:00.840the RNC, from people in the RNC saying, we can't do this third, we've got to shut down this third debate.
00:38:05.260Just remember, the hate and vitriol you saw yesterday on Fox against Gates, and you're still seeing it nonstop and unacceptable, what Kill Me did to Burchett, is coming from the Murdoch.
00:38:30.300Also, the debates, this is all to take out Trump.
00:38:34.720Remember, one of the things at the CR that was so terrible was it kicked it past October 31st so that Glenn Youngkin, you know, can get this total shot, a free shot on goal on, not worrying about the country,
00:38:49.340but he could get a free shot on goal on these House and Senate elections in Virginia.
00:38:55.280Because, and I think Youngkin just announced record-breaking fundraising, and he's having this on October, I think, 17th in Virginia Beach at the Cavalier Hotel.
00:39:03.780They're going to have all the swells, all the bayonaires, the Hungarian bayonair that's in back of him is going to bring him, you know, with David Rubenstein and that entire crowd.
00:39:13.120They're going to get down there and get him as the alternative because the Keebler elves have collapsed.
00:39:19.340The Messenger, that newspaper now, has a lead story about polling that's coming out that shows that DeSantis is getting crushed in Florida.
00:39:26.820If you can't win in Florida, what are you going to do, dude?
00:39:28.460Not just win, if you can't be competitive.
