Bannon's War Room - Episode 3813： Finding Out The Hidden Truth About Radical Walz

00:00:00.000 This is the primal scream of a dying regime.

00:00:06.940 Pray for our enemies, because we're going medieval on these people.

00:00:12.140 I got a free shot at all these networks lying about the people.

00:00:16.420 The people have had a belly full of it.

00:00:18.360 I know you don't like hearing that.

00:00:19.780 I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that,

00:00:21.520 but you're not going to stop it.

00:00:22.460 It's going to happen.

00:00:23.720 And where do people like that go to share the big lie?

00:00:27.120 Mega Media.

00:00:28.040 I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.

00:00:33.960 Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?

00:00:37.660 If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.

00:00:44.080 War Room.

00:00:44.860 Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.

00:00:53.740 Good morning.

00:00:54.940 Welcome to the War Room.

00:00:56.260 Dave Brat sitting in with the great Stephen K. Bannon.

00:00:59.520 Out of respect and honor for Stephen K. Bannon, we open every show in the name of the Father,

00:01:05.060 the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

00:01:07.040 Amen.

00:01:08.020 We got a great show for you all today, packed wall-to-wall.

00:01:12.300 Make sure, please share this platform with everybody, everybody you know.

00:01:16.520 Shoot a link to your friends, R-A-V. 1.00

00:01:19.500 They're doing great work for you, Real America's Voice, and share the platform.

00:01:24.420 So we double the numbers by the time Steve gets back.

00:01:27.100 And you all heard Peter Navarro the other day give us some great news that there's some law that may let Steve out early.

00:01:36.380 And so that would be an answer to all of our prayers.

00:01:40.240 I think we're going to J.D. Vance right now, a refreshing—I looked at the Waltz stuff.

00:01:48.200 I served in Congress with Waltz, and I've looked into the policies that Minnesota has put into place.

00:01:57.500 I used to live there.

00:01:58.880 We have Michelle Bachman coming up later on the show, and just a stunning contrast in vice presidential candidates, right? 1.00

00:02:10.080 They're trying to make, along with the help of the mainstream media, which is—it's stunning, right?

00:02:19.460 Biden was fine, and then he's not fine, and then they worked to get rid of him, right?

00:02:23.720 The guy that said he's great and is the best acute mind there is.

00:02:27.380 And so, you know, you just can't believe you're lying in ice.

00:02:30.960 But Minnesota, I don't want to get too much in front of Michelle Bachman, Congressman Bachman, but they put in place policies, you know, at the same time they say they're Lutheran.

00:02:41.880 They say they're putting in policies that take your kid from you in the public school system and turn them into another gender without letting you parents know, right? 1.00

00:02:53.980 We went through that in Virginia, and the moms rightly were highly energized, elected Youngkin. 1.00

00:03:02.860 We have Tiffany Justice on the show on that issue coming up, and I'm looking at the stage with J.D.

00:03:09.060 I don't know if you all can see it there, too.

00:03:10.920 I think you can, but I'm kind of waiting for him to come on up.

00:03:14.200 And by contrast, right, they're trying to put Waltz in the hunting uniform and making them look Midwest, whatever.

00:03:22.220 He was there when Minneapolis blew up in flames.

00:03:26.100 And I encourage you all, go do your research, right?

00:03:28.880 Don't believe the talking heads.

00:03:30.720 Go do your own research.

00:03:32.360 And on our side of the football, all political views are my own, but we have J.D. Vance, who grew up with nothing.

00:03:40.320 He knows what it's like to come from nothing.

00:03:43.820 He advanced through college and then top law schools in the country.

00:03:48.680 I think he was head of the Yale Law Review, the pinnacle of Yale even, then does well in business.

00:03:57.600 And he must be over the target, right?

00:03:59.900 Because when the left says, when the left goes after him with all the vitriol they can, I mean, I think they know the problem.

00:04:08.400 And that could be the Waltz reaction as well, trying to put up, you know, they're trying to frame it as they're the normal ones.

00:04:14.680 Well, you know, that might last for a week with a media monopoly, but it won't be sustained, right?

00:04:22.320 The American people have seen too many bizarre things in the last weeks.

00:04:26.800 Denver, let me know what's going on, but I think we're going to pan over to the J.D. Vance speech and then we'll come back to the war room with a star-studded lineup.

00:04:38.580 So hang tight with us and let's flip it over to the J.D. Vance coverage with RAV.

00:04:46.880 Good. I think we'll just wait for J.D. to get right up there.

00:04:57.740 Yesterday, I did an economic overview.

00:05:02.920 Navarro will be back on.

00:05:05.040 We got E.J. and Tony coming up on the market crash a couple days ago.

00:05:12.340 And so, you know, that's stunning.

00:05:15.820 The causal piece was probably Japan.

00:05:18.600 E.J. and Tony and I will get into all that.

00:05:21.460 But the more stunning part is that, you know, this carry trade, this technical piece of the rich, the super rich, right?

00:05:29.620 The top 10 percent of the rich own 90 percent of the stocks and bonds.

00:05:33.540 But our Federal Reserve and our federal government run the economy on that basis for the elites.

00:05:40.140 They're not setting up an economy that's good for jobs, for American jobs, right?

00:05:45.540 They're setting up an economy which is leveraged to the hilt, where just teeny, tiny little changes in, you know, a carry trade interest rate in Japan by 0.25 percent sent the entire world into free fall.

00:06:01.040 That's how strong our economy and our markets are.

00:06:05.480 They're not strong.

00:06:07.360 And the resilience, once something cracks, you know, it is widely agreed, right, just so you know the subtext here.

00:06:15.020 Everyone agrees there's another super bubble constructed by the Federal Reserve printing the $9 trillion to accommodate, right?

00:06:22.240 The Federal Reserve accommodates the $2 trillion deficits and the $7 trillion government budgets that Congress put together and that the Republicans signed off on.

00:06:34.560 The Woken weaponized $7 trillion budget they signed off on. 0.93

00:06:38.960 So the Federal Reserve has validated all that by printing enough money to make all of that happen instead of not doing that and disciplining our government.

00:06:49.640 That's what they would do if they were for the American people.

00:06:52.280 And I think, sorry to break up the economic dialogue, but we got J.D. Vance coming to the stage.

00:06:59.120 And so let's flip over there.

00:07:00.240 Denver, thank you very much.

00:07:01.660 Their kindness.

00:07:02.540 But most of all, I appreciate what they do every single day to support this community.

00:07:07.140 And really, they've opened my eyes.

00:07:09.000 We got a briefing backstage, and they've really opened my eyes about what's going on, even in communities like Shelby Township.

00:07:15.220 And it's why it's so important for President Trump and I to back the blue and make it possible for our law enforcement officers to do their job rather than Kamala Harris, who wants to make it harder for them to do their job, who wants to defund them, and wants to make it more difficult for them to keep us safe.

00:07:31.800 We've got to throw Kamala Harris out of office, not give her a promotion. 1.00

00:07:35.520 And that's what our law enforcement needs.

00:07:38.680 Now, I want to give a few shout-outs here before I talk about what I learned today.

00:07:42.540 First, we've got the great Congressman John James.

00:07:46.020 John's back there.

00:07:47.040 We all love John.

00:07:47.980 He's a good guy.

00:07:50.060 Great friend of law enforcement.

00:07:51.580 We've got Chairman Pete Heikstra here.

00:07:53.940 I didn't see Pete earlier, but I know Chairman Pete.

00:07:56.520 There's Chairman Pete.

00:07:57.840 Thank you for being here, Pete.

00:07:59.800 And then we've got another great congressman, or former congressman, but will make an even better United States Senator.

00:08:04.920 Mike Rogers is here.

00:08:06.040 And Mike is another great ally of law enforcement.

00:08:08.940 Mike, thank you for being here.

00:08:09.980 Look, what I realized in talking to some of these police officers, and this is especially to the folks who are watching on TV, is the failure to protect our communities is a policy choice.

00:08:23.040 It is a policy choice to defund the police, which is what Kamala Harris wants to do. 1.00

00:08:28.700 It is a policy choice to open up the American southern border and allow migrant criminals to come into this community and make it less safe. 1.00

00:08:37.280 It is a policy choice to not deport people, to suspend deportations, which is what Kamala Harris did.

00:08:44.840 And I heard just earlier about a criminal who was deported from this community, who came back in and then raped an 11-year-old girl just in the past couple of months.

00:08:55.000 I'm the father of a 2-year-old girl. 0.96

00:08:56.740 I cannot imagine having a government that cares so little about you that they're letting people who come into our communities get deported and come back in, and then they rape our children.

00:09:08.360 That is a policy choice of Kamala Harris to suspend deportations and let somebody like that into our community. 1.00

00:09:14.580 It is a policy choice to not prosecute people who sexually assault minors.

00:09:19.580 When Kamala Harris was the attorney general of California, she actually made it a nonviolent crime to commit sex crimes with minors. 1.00

00:09:29.600 Shouldn't we want to throw people who commit the most heinous crimes in our communities in prison and throw away the key,

00:09:36.520 and yet Kamala Harris is making it easier for people to get out of jail after they commit heinous crimes with children? 0.87

00:09:42.700 It's despicable, but it's another policy choice of Kamala Harris. 1.00

00:09:46.280 And I guess my message to the American people, and certainly to all of you gathered here today,

00:09:51.600 is we don't have to accept this from the federal government of the United States of America.

00:09:56.980 Remember, when President Trump was in office, we deported illegal aliens.

00:10:01.580 When President Trump was in office, we were building the border wall, which made it harder for illegal aliens to come here in the first place.

00:10:07.880 When President Trump was president, we did not grant mass amnesty,

00:10:12.160 which allowed illegal aliens to come into our communities, to harm our people, and then to stay here after the fact. 0.97

00:10:18.880 We just need better leadership.

00:10:21.000 It is so simple, and I can't believe that anyone would actually think that you should open up the American southern border

00:10:29.600 to all of these criminals, you should let them commit crimes in our communities,

00:10:33.320 and then you should refuse to deport them afterwards, and that's exactly what Kamala Harris has done. 0.99

00:10:38.000 You know, I grew up in a community.

00:10:41.460 I grew up in a place where when law enforcement wasn't able to do their job,

00:10:46.020 it was the poor kids in my community, the kids who grew up like I did, who suffer the most.

00:10:50.820 Because, of course, if you're wealthy, you can afford a gated community.

00:10:54.180 If you're wealthy, you can afford private security.

00:10:56.840 But when the police are not empowered to do their job,

00:10:59.840 it is the most vulnerable people in our communities who suffer.

00:11:03.040 We saw that, of course, in 2020 with the summer riots with our new vice presidential nominee on the Democratic side.

00:11:10.060 Makes an interesting dynamic duo with Kamala Harris because as he was promoting rioters and looters burning down the city of Minneapolis,

00:11:18.260 Kamala Harris was helping to bail the rioters and looters out of jail.

00:11:22.500 A really vicious cycle if you're living in that community,

00:11:25.900 a really vicious cycle if you own one of those businesses that was burned down,

00:11:29.240 and, of course, a very vicious cycle if you're one of the poor kids who needs law and order,

00:11:34.840 who needs common sense safety but doesn't have access to it because our government so often refuses to do its job.

00:11:42.720 I want to do a couple of shout-outs here, and I encourage these folks if they're willing to make a couple of remarks,

00:11:50.080 and then I'll close this out and take some questions from the media.

00:11:53.680 But I got to meet Jim Tigonelli.

00:11:57.800 Sorry, Jim, I hope I pronounced that right.

00:12:00.140 Jim is the leader of one of the most important associations of law enforcement officers here in the state of Michigan.

00:12:07.340 I mean, he told me about just in a 30-day period recently they lost three police officers,

00:12:11.760 three police officers who lost their lives in the line of duty because Kamala Harris has sent out this message

00:12:20.320 that it's open season on American police officers.

00:12:23.880 And that filters down to the criminals who hear it,

00:12:26.740 who know they're not going to suffer consequences for committing violent crime,

00:12:29.640 and then do exactly that.

00:12:31.760 And Jim's police officers lost their lives because of it.

00:12:34.160 So I'd love to have Jim come up here and just say a few words if you're willing.

00:12:37.540 Thank you, sir. Appreciate it.

00:12:38.820 Thank you. Thank you, Senator.

00:12:43.320 As he indicated, we represent about 12,000 law enforcement personnel across both peninsulas,

00:12:48.360 so I feel like we're in a position to speak for a majority of those who work that job.

00:12:53.920 The common thread in the room today was the regard for public safety.

00:12:57.880 Although the Democrat candidate for president has not said as much,

00:13:01.420 it's quite common for all candidates to claim an allegiance to law enforcement and public safety at election time.

00:13:07.460 The truth is, it's what you say and do between elections that matter to us.

00:13:12.040 And we've had an opportunity to see what President Trump did as president.

00:13:16.160 We've had an opportunity to see his choice here in J.D. Vance.

00:13:19.700 And we know that that's a binary choice.

00:13:22.460 The other choice is not an option to us.

00:13:25.180 The open borders that began in January of 21 changed the number of illegal aliens

00:13:29.840 from entering the country from $300,000 a year to $300,000 a month at the beginning of 2023, $3 million a year.

00:13:38.500 The Trump administration had taken steps to limit those illegal entries by none less than 500 miles of wall,

00:13:45.960 which the Biden and Harris administration knocked down portions of

00:13:49.460 and left all the materials laying on the road to rot.

00:13:53.440 And then went so far as to sue the state of Texas for trying to build a barrier to guard their own border.

00:13:58.400 The best efforts of Michigan's best in law enforcement are failing.

00:14:01.940 As he indicated, we've had three officers shot this year, and they were not in gunfights.

00:14:07.500 This wasn't an armed robbery, a barricaded gunman.

00:14:09.800 These were traffic stops.

00:14:10.980 These were guys that were not even unholstering their guns when they were murdered.

00:14:15.460 These weren't deaths.

00:14:16.260 These were murders.

00:14:16.980 Beautiful and prosperous Shelby Township has also been touched by illegal aliens this year, 0.99

00:14:21.980 and you've heard some of those examples.

00:14:24.960 When people are allowed to enter the country illegally without consequence 0.98

00:14:28.660 and maybe even being rewarded for it,

00:14:31.320 it leads some citizens who are here legally to think that that type of behavior is okay.

00:14:37.260 Nobody surrenders anymore.

00:14:38.940 These cases that we're running into, these aren't all illegals,

00:14:41.700 but they're learning from the illegals.

00:14:44.460 No one surrenders.

00:14:45.380 70,000 police officers were assaulted last year, physically assaulted.

00:14:51.360 360 were shot but not killed, and more than 60 were shot to death just in last year.

00:14:58.100 That's not right.

00:14:59.560 Okay, there should be no excuse for that.

00:15:01.940 Eligible candidates for this job are getting more and more difficult to find.

00:15:06.820 We have a great candidate for president,

00:15:12.060 and we know that because he served as president for four years.

00:15:15.520 We were more prosperous and we were safer when he was here.

00:15:19.400 He has chosen J.D. Vance as his candidate for vice president,

00:15:23.120 and every day we hear more things to convince us how much better it will be with J.D. Vance in the chair with President Trump.

00:15:30.960 So the Police Officers Association of Michigan are here today to tell you that our members of 75 different counties

00:15:37.260 wholeheartedly endorsed the Trump Vance ticket, and we are proud to do so, and we need you to win.

00:15:44.600 Thanks, man.

00:15:45.380 Thank you.

00:15:45.780 Thank you.

00:15:47.700 Great.

00:15:48.220 But I want to also hear a little bit from Peter Lucido.

00:15:55.060 Peter?

00:15:56.100 Yes.

00:15:56.440 Yeah, please say a few words.

00:15:57.420 Thanks, Peter.

00:15:58.000 Thank you.

00:15:58.940 Thank you, Senator.

00:16:01.680 And good morning, everyone.

00:16:03.400 Thank you.

00:16:04.780 We came together here for a reason because it's undisputed that law enforcement's prime mission is to maintain safety

00:16:11.620 and protect the welfare of the citizens as one of the most important government responsibilities.

00:16:18.220 Without protecting the citizens, it's a failure in government.

00:16:24.580 It's a failure to us.

00:16:27.060 Macomb County residents and businesses must rely on law enforcement to keep them safe and free from harm by others.

00:16:34.660 As the Macomb County prosecutor, I am committed to bringing wrongdoers to justice.

00:16:40.060 All accused of a crime are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

00:16:45.160 Now, whether documented or undocumented, a person faces the same justice under the law.

00:16:52.980 In Macomb County, we follow the law.

00:16:56.040 That means we honor the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency with notice of an arrest of an undocumented person or persons.

00:17:06.500 We are proud to work with our state and federal law partners as it relates to keeping the law and keeping the order.

00:17:15.300 We need to be clear that bad actions by the undocumented should not have a chilling effect on those who came here legally, like our ancestors.

00:17:27.240 However, the problem today is that law enforcement is challenging enough without adding immigration issues into the equation.

00:17:36.120 That should never have happened here.

00:17:40.000 This onslaught of undocumented crimes has brought a drastic impact on our law enforcement partners. 1.00

00:17:49.140 The cost of illegals entering this country who have broke our laws has put law-abiding citizens at risk. 1.00

00:17:58.400 Honest, hardworking, and good-spirit Americans have long provided legal immigrants with food, shelter, and medical care, etc.

00:18:11.780 But the unlawful, undocumented cost of law enforcement and incarceration is truly something...

00:18:20.780 The elites are getting desperate.

00:18:22.820 They now want to use the technology behind Bitcoin for their own Orwellian purposes, their gold to dominate our economy by forcing everyone to use central bank digital currencies, which they control.

00:18:35.840 Imagine your every purchase being called into question, your every move tracked, like you live in a communist country. 0.87

00:18:42.840 This is not the America we want, but it is the America they want to create.

00:18:47.380 Fortunately, you can fight back.

00:18:49.640 I believe owning gold is the best solution.

00:18:51.880 Why? Because it keeps you in control and safeguards your savings.

00:18:55.900 Plus, with a gold IRA from Birch Gold, you can move your IRA or 401k into physical gold without paying any taxes or penalties.

00:19:13.120 And Birch Gold is the only gold company I trust to help patriots defend their savings.

00:19:33.880 Back in the war room, Dave Bradts sitting in for Stephen K. Bannon.

00:19:38.820 You heard the setup, and sure enough, J.D. Vance comes through saying what we in the war room have been saying.

00:19:46.780 I grew up in Michigan and Minnesota, and there was none of this when I grew up.

00:19:52.540 The world is just out of control.

00:19:55.520 Some of the things you're seeing, by the way, are not Marxist.

00:19:59.740 They're neo-Marxist, and it's worth pointing that out, right?

00:20:04.200 No Marxist country, the Russians, the Chinese, have ever done anything like this to their children, right? 0.84

00:20:13.260 So they have Marxist economies and Marxist philosophies and ideologies,

00:20:18.680 but they have not done anything like Minnesota has done in their public policy to their children.

00:20:25.040 And Michigan, as they're going through the accounting there, it's just horrifying.

00:20:30.580 This has been put into American higher education.

00:20:34.100 The neo-Marxists are on the march.

00:20:37.040 They're trying to destroy this country, right?

00:20:39.220 And I've referred people to this book by R.R. Reno called Return of the Strong Gods.

00:20:44.260 They are trying to destroy the things we love, the love for God, the love for our nation, and the love for our families.

00:20:51.520 And so we have a guest who's particularly well-equipped and fighting on her own.

00:20:58.540 Tiffany Justice, are you with us?

00:21:00.500 I want to go to you to hear you react to J.D. Vance and this list of horribles coming out of Minnesota and Michigan.

00:21:07.820 It's stunning.

00:21:08.500 Welcome to the War Room, Tiffany.

00:21:10.180 Thanks for being with us.

00:21:11.720 Well, thank you very much.

00:21:12.840 And, Dave, I'm so excited to be on with you.

00:21:14.640 I've never been on with you before, and I miss Steve terribly, but it's good to see you.

00:21:18.980 Great, you too.

00:21:19.640 First of all, yes, first of all, you know, in China, the children have been indoctrinated.

00:21:24.640 We saw the building of the Red Guard in China.

00:21:26.500 That certainly is what we're seeing in America today.

00:21:28.660 Our public school system, using our taxpayer dollars, are indoctrinating our children in our schools.

00:21:34.240 They're teaching kids that America is a broken, bad country, and they're teaching kids to hate each other.

00:21:39.920 And there is no future in that.

00:21:42.040 As far as the transgender stuff, the gender ideology stuff that you're seeing, Dave, we're seeing a tidal wave of evidence from Europe showing that gender-affirming care, this idea of puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, medical transitions, sex changes for kids, is not what's best for kids.

00:21:58.280 Now, I think a lot of us with common sense knew that, stopping the healthy development of children isn't a good idea.

00:22:04.020 But in Minnesota, that's exactly what Tim Waltz has done.

00:22:08.720 I have stated before, I will state again, Tim Waltz was the most radical anti-parent candidate that Kamala Harris could have chosen as a running mate.

00:22:17.580 It is absolutely wild to me.

00:22:20.640 Yeah, and just to be clear, you know, Stephen K. Bannon loves the receipts and the evidence on that.

00:22:25.900 So in Minnesota, I think they had the House and the Senate and the governor waltz, and they shoved through this entire leftist agenda, right?

00:22:34.420 You have a couple receipts you can point to.

00:22:37.260 I think I read, and I just want to be clear and accurate.

00:22:40.860 But parents have lost the right to information concerning kids who are going through sex changes.

00:22:48.260 Is that true?

00:22:49.780 Yes, that is true.

00:22:51.320 And in fact, if your child moves to Minnesota, you lose your parental rights.

00:22:56.240 You have no ability to give any consent, to have any knowledge about gender transition.

00:23:00.920 If there's a minor child that wants to go through that in Minnesota, parents will not have any type of information shared with them about gender transition.

00:23:09.100 It's more than that, though.

00:23:10.360 Listen, Tim Walz shut down Minnesota during COVID.

00:23:15.960 That snitch line, Dave, cuts right to the heart of parents' concerns, of neighbors calling a snitch line and telling on each other.

00:23:24.000 We watched as schools were closed, as kids were masked all over the country.

00:23:28.340 But Tim Walz has taken over a quarter of a million dollars from teachers' unions in Minnesota for his election.

00:23:34.560 He's taken money from the National Teachers' Union.

00:23:36.940 And Randy Weingarten was on TV yesterday so excited about Tim Walz.

00:23:43.220 She's just giddy.

00:23:44.120 So excited about having Tim Walz because he's in their pocket.

00:23:47.420 And teachers' unions, union bosses lead to learning losses.

00:23:51.000 So there have been three different transgender bills that Governor Walz has signed into law that have horribly hurt children and parental rights. 0.68

00:23:58.600 And apparently the Constitution doesn't exist in Minnesota.

00:24:04.140 Yeah, well, thank goodness we have you.

00:24:06.280 You're one of the best messengers I've heard on the whole range of issues.

00:24:10.120 The New York Times, by the way, today said the reason for Walz was in quotes.

00:24:14.820 He's a team player, and he'll do whatever the team wants.

00:24:19.500 So this is very scary to me, right?

00:24:21.680 I grew up in Minnesota, and I have the Scandinavian bloodlines in me.

00:24:27.680 They got a bunch of Lutherans and their Swedes and Finns up there.

00:24:32.600 I went to seminary.

00:24:34.180 I studied old Johnny Calvin and Luther.

00:24:36.820 I never saw any of this trans stuff in Lutheranism, right?

00:24:42.300 And so we have the Christian church is standing silently by.

00:24:46.720 And then, you know, we had Governor Youngkin in Virginia ran on this stuff.

00:24:51.000 And where are all the other sane governors yelling from the rooftops?

00:24:56.420 Where is the Congress?

00:24:57.860 Where is the Senate? 1.00

00:24:58.880 Women are being raped. 1.00

00:25:00.420 Kids are being—their sexuality is being changed by surgery. 1.00

00:25:05.960 There's heinous sex crimes going on here.

00:25:08.800 Parents are not being allowed to monitor them.

00:25:11.460 Where is the leadership in this country other than Tiffany Justice?

00:25:15.940 Well, I think there are a lot of amazing leaders.

00:25:18.220 And Moms for Liberty is raising up leaders everywhere. 0.96

00:25:20.580 That's what we do.

00:25:21.240 It's really creating the capacity for leadership for people in their own communities.

00:25:24.920 One of the most startling things that Tim Waltz said to me recently, Dave—or said,

00:25:28.920 excuse me, that I heard him say was that 30-foot ladder comment, that how tall would the wall

00:25:34.260 that Donald Trump was going to build be, and that he was going to build a ladder that was

00:25:38.080 five feet taller.

00:25:39.600 I travel all the time.

00:25:41.180 You know that I like to go out and try to take a run when I'm traveling.

00:25:44.200 I have so many people telling me now, do not go out for a run in the morning.

00:25:48.100 But you need to be very careful about this area.

00:25:50.080 That never used to happen before.

00:25:51.800 And the truth of the matter is that women in America are scared for our safety, and we're

00:25:55.860 scared for the safety of our kids.

00:25:57.360 And it's good to see J.D. out there supporting law enforcement in Michigan, because we certainly

00:26:01.580 do need more of that.

00:26:04.180 Yeah.

00:26:04.760 And I didn't mean to throw everybody under the bus, just most everybody.

00:26:08.880 But yeah, J.D. Vance is an exception to the rule.

00:26:12.280 Can you give us a—we don't spend enough time bragging on the good guys.

00:26:16.080 Can you give us what's hopeful about Trump and J.D. Vance?

00:26:19.520 All political views are my own.

00:26:21.420 But, you know, policy is up for debate here.

00:26:24.660 And so it matters.

00:26:25.660 Tiffany?

00:26:26.660 It absolutely matters.

00:26:27.780 First of all, President Trump signed our parent pledge.

00:26:29.820 He's been very clear about the fact that he knows exactly the role that parents should

00:26:33.600 be playing in their kids' lives, that parents should be directing every major decision that's

00:26:37.380 happening.

00:26:37.780 So we know that President Trump supports parents.

00:26:40.280 We have a parent pledge on our way to J.D., and hopefully he'll sign it as well.

00:26:43.840 What J.D. just said about the fact that when law enforcement doesn't step up, that the

00:26:48.520 poor kids in communities lose out the most is true.

00:26:51.260 This is true in our schools as well.

00:26:53.580 As you saw, unions and Tim Waltz shut schools down.

00:26:56.460 Kamala Harris supporting masking of children, supporting vaccinating of kids.

00:27:01.180 Kamala wanted to force every child over the age of five to be vaccinated.

00:27:04.740 Tim Waltz actually gave out money.

00:27:07.040 I think it was like $200 per shot in his state in order for people to get vaccinated.

00:27:11.720 So we see that kids are constantly losing out.

00:27:14.840 And President Trump has always been very clear with me that he puts kids first, that he prioritizes

00:27:20.260 family.

00:27:20.880 He knows how important moms and dads and families are in America.

00:27:24.160 And I think J.D. is no different.

00:27:25.940 I've loved getting to know him and his wife and watching them talk about their family.

00:27:30.160 One of the funniest things I saw recently was he said that President Trump called him

00:27:34.160 and he was thinking to himself or he said, you know, shut the hell up.

00:27:37.000 I don't believe that J.D. said that to his son.

00:27:39.560 But I'll tell you what, I do a lot of live TV.

00:27:41.880 I've got four kids that are home this summer.

00:27:44.920 And absolutely in my mind, I'm like, oh, my goodness, did you need to get ice right now?

00:27:48.760 Right.

00:27:48.980 There are things that I think about.

00:27:50.940 And so I just think he's a real person.

00:27:53.360 And that's what we need.

00:27:54.400 We need people who are not career politicians.

00:27:56.940 And that's what, you know, Kamala Harris, Tim Waltz.

00:27:59.320 Now he's been in politics for quite some time.

00:28:01.500 These are politicians.

00:28:02.380 They will just do the bidding of the highest bidder.

00:28:05.680 And nobody owns President Trump.

00:28:07.300 I don't believe anybody owns J.D. Vance either.

00:28:09.520 And I'm just excited to see two dads in the White House.

00:28:13.040 Good.

00:28:13.800 One minute left, Tiffany.

00:28:15.780 On the congressional and Senate side, a lot of my colleagues voted for a $7 trillion budget

00:28:23.440 that allowed all the woke and weaponized policy issues under the sun into that $7 trillion

00:28:31.300 because they were too scared to take a stand for the American people.

00:28:35.740 Can you recommend—we want everybody to start taking action, calling up their Congress members,

00:28:41.280 I don't care what party they're in, and senators, on these horrendous issues.

00:28:44.800 Can you name one or two pieces of horrendous legislation that made it through in our federal budget this year?

00:28:51.480 Yeah, there was funding for community schools.

00:28:54.100 You and I have spoken about that before.

00:28:55.700 That is communism.

00:28:56.900 That is true communism.

00:28:57.940 They want to take your public schools. 0.99

00:28:59.640 They want to put medical clinics in the schools.

00:29:01.640 You add that with informed—the lowered ages of informed consent.

00:29:05.360 You've got 12-year-olds now who apparently are supposed to be able to give consent

00:29:08.880 for medical procedures or medical things in schools.

00:29:12.260 Absolutely unacceptable.

00:29:13.380 They're putting washers and dryers in schools, grocery stores in schools.

00:29:16.580 They want the schools to be a community hub.

00:29:18.820 When Eric Adams tells you that schools are community assets and he can shut one down

00:29:23.060 to put illegal immigrants into a school instead of students, you should believe him. 1.00

00:29:27.380 And they want to take those schools and all of those capital assets

00:29:29.980 and use them as really a complete social service welfare program in America.

00:29:35.180 Disengaging parents is not the way forward,

00:29:37.440 and every politician needs to stop community schools from happening in their state.

00:29:41.860 Yeah.

00:29:42.560 Tiffany, how do people reach you and support your great organization?

00:29:45.900 Thank you, Dave.

00:30:10.280 Some special guests I'll be announcing hopefully later this week.

00:30:14.100 That's great.

00:30:14.720 Thank you, Tiffany.

00:30:15.740 All right.

00:30:16.140 You just heard it.

00:30:17.140 War Room.

00:30:18.060 Steve Bannon was sitting in here after hearing this.

00:30:21.560 He'd be yelling, doing a rant right now, telling you to go to the ramparts,

00:30:25.340 call your congressmen, call your governors.

00:30:27.580 If they're not out messaging on these horrific issues, they're guilty.

00:30:32.180 They're morally guilty of sins of omission, right?

00:30:36.760 They should be acting, and they're not.

00:30:38.880 We've had Metaxas on.

00:30:40.400 If you're like me, your home is your castle, and it's likely your most valuable asset.

00:30:48.540 So why aren't you protecting it?

00:31:48.020 Today, we are joined with another superstar in the Christian movement who wants to build strong Christians and strong citizens.

00:31:57.580 And there's no one better in the country.

00:32:00.260 He looks young.

00:32:01.640 I keep getting older and hit big numbers every day.

00:32:04.220 And here's one of my favorite guys, Ralph Reed.

00:32:06.960 Welcome to the war room.

00:32:08.340 Glad to have you on, brother.

00:32:10.140 If you want to respond, first of all, to some of that and then the Walt's VP pick

00:32:14.920 and then gives Christians some sense of urgency.

00:32:18.380 Walt's, I hear, is a Lutheran. 0.87

00:32:20.460 And as I commented on this, I'm not familiar with Luther being in favor of all this horrific policy.

00:32:25.620 So enlighten us on what Christians should be doing in this modern world.

00:32:30.800 Well, thanks, Dave.

00:32:31.980 Great to be with you.

00:32:33.480 Steve is in our prayers.

00:32:35.300 We're praying for him.

00:32:36.520 And we appreciate you stepping into the gap here and being a voice on this critical network.

00:32:42.920 Dave, there's no question.

00:32:44.780 It's irrefutable.

00:32:47.120 This is now officially the most far-left ticket, national ticket in American history.

00:32:54.780 Kamala Harris, you know, allowed the cup to pass that would have enabled her to broaden her reach, 1.00

00:33:05.980 to move to the center, to try and reach the heartland of America with a message that was more centrist and mainstream.

00:33:14.620 And instead, she doubled down on a far-left agenda. 0.91

00:33:18.620 Tim Waltz is somebody who was a leader in the shutdowns.

00:33:26.400 He shut the entire state down.

00:33:28.640 He issued an executive order on May 13th of 2020, allowing retail establishments to reopen at up to 50 percent capacity

00:33:38.860 and had a glide path for bars and restaurants to open within a matter of weeks.

00:33:44.460 But churches, Dave, were not allowed to organize with more than 10 congregants or worshipers.

00:33:53.100 This was a dagger aimed at the heart of religious freedom in the state of Minnesota.

00:33:59.260 It clearly violated the First Amendment rights of the people of that state.

00:34:04.280 And frankly, you don't need to know anything else about this guy other than the fact that he thought

00:34:10.800 that retail therapy was okay during COVID, but spiritual healing and worshiping in congregations was not.

00:34:20.740 That tells you where his priorities are.

00:34:23.360 This is a state that passed one of the most liberal, Dave, if not the most liberal abortion laws in America

00:34:30.780 after the Dobbs decision, allowing abortion not only at any stage of pregnancy up to the moment of birth,

00:34:38.380 but it has been documented.

00:34:40.800 They have allowed abortions to take place when children were born alive during an abortion.

00:34:47.180 No life was saved.

00:34:48.980 A handful received so-called comfort care.

00:34:53.060 They were all allowed to die.

00:34:55.080 This is infanticide.

00:34:57.560 He's an extremist on law and order issues.

00:35:00.600 He's an extremist on gender issues.

00:35:02.960 Creating Minnesota as a sanctuary state where minors can come and have surgery that will change their gender 0.98

00:35:13.620 without their parents' involvement or permission.

00:35:17.280 This is a radical extremist.

00:35:20.360 And it's the most radical left ticket in American history.

00:35:24.360 We need to go out and tell that story.

00:35:26.140 And for Christians, Dave, there has never been more on the line, on the life issue, on religious freedom, on support for Israel.

00:35:34.380 You can't tell me that Josh Shapiro's support for the state of Israel and his clear opposition to radical Palestinian protesters

00:35:46.000 at the University of Pennsylvania didn't play a role in him being disqualified to be on that ticket.

00:35:53.240 There is no question that she was moving in that direction, and he was told that somebody of his views need not apply.

00:36:03.520 So for evangelical Christians and other believers in this country who support the state of Israel,

00:36:09.840 there's never been anything more on the line.

00:36:14.680 Yep.

00:36:15.840 Denver, we got Ralph.

00:36:18.600 Did we lose him?

00:36:19.260 We got him back connected.

00:36:23.240 All right.

00:36:23.880 I think we're reconnecting with Ralph Reed.

00:36:26.740 I think he's up.

00:36:27.680 Hey, Ralph, are you with us?

00:36:32.260 You with us, Ralph?

00:36:33.200 Can you hear me?

00:36:34.280 Yeah, I sure can.

00:36:36.020 Great, great.

00:36:37.320 Thank you for the summary and the strong statement.

00:36:39.740 And I think it's time for the Christians to double down on the entire litany you just listed 0.56

00:36:46.400 and form a social contract in this country.

00:36:49.780 And I would like you, and I'm happy to help out on it, but we need Christian leaders to make a contract 1.00

00:36:56.880 and think through how can we put a testable proposition in front of the presidential candidate,

00:37:03.120 Kamala Harris and VP Waltz.

00:37:05.580 Some statement about affirming that Christians are entitled to the full spectrum of rights 1.00

00:37:12.000 that all Americans are entitled to.

00:37:14.540 Equal treatment, not special treatment.

00:37:17.280 Equal treatment under the law of First Amendment freedoms to free speech, to free assembly.

00:37:23.660 I mean, it's just stunning.

00:37:24.900 The American people, and I grew up with a Minnesota nice people.

00:37:28.240 I grew up in high school in Minnesota.

00:37:29.880 They're all super nice people.

00:37:31.300 Yeah, and they've become passive, right?

00:37:34.800 And so what would you recommend to the war room posse?

00:37:38.580 We have an active, very active group.

00:37:41.440 But what kind of a statement that should we be looking to put forward to the Democrats?

00:37:46.300 We've given a pass.

00:37:47.460 We don't ask them objectively.

00:37:49.320 Do you believe in God?

00:37:51.240 That matters, right?

00:37:53.240 Do you believe in God?

00:37:54.800 I think it's a great idea, Dave.

00:37:56.660 I think we need to put something like that together.

00:37:58.780 And what I would urge your viewers who are watching the war room to do is contact their

00:38:05.920 elected officials, specifically their two senators and their member of Congress.

00:38:11.260 Contact them by email or phone call today.

00:38:15.000 Today.

00:38:16.280 As soon as this show is over.

00:38:18.660 I don't want to pull them away from the show.

00:38:20.760 And ask them whether or not they agree with Kamala Harris and Tim Walz on these critical

00:38:28.760 issues of minors receiving gender transitioning services, a surgery without their parents' permission

00:38:37.720 on churches being closed when bars and restaurants and retail establishments are being reopened.

00:38:46.020 The hostility towards the state of Israel, trying to force them into a ceasefire that would allow

00:38:54.100 Hamas to survive as a military power in Gaza and empower Iran, abortion on demand up to 0.95

00:39:02.520 the moment of birth, including a child born alive who is systematically executed and allowed

00:39:09.720 to die on a table, ask them whether or not they agree with those things and ask them to issue

00:39:15.820 a public statement, either affirming their support of those stands or their opposition.

00:39:22.220 And by the way, especially Democrats, because I got to tell you, I think there's at least

00:39:28.100 12 to 15 Democrats in the House, maybe as many as 30 and multiple U.S. Senate candidates,

00:39:35.700 including Sherrod Brown in Ohio, you know, obviously John Tester in Montana and Mark Kelly

00:39:44.120 and many others who are not going to want to be associated with this ticket.

00:39:49.540 They're not going to want to be seen with them.

00:39:51.440 They're not going to want to campaign with them.

00:39:53.420 And we've got to hit the gas on this thing, Dave.

00:39:56.440 Yeah.

00:39:56.840 Well, I agree with you 100 percent, Ralph.

00:39:58.920 And what you said at the end, those conditions, do you agree?

00:40:02.340 And of course, all of them are very clever communicators.

00:40:04.960 I lived with all of them up in the swamp for a few years.

00:40:08.220 And they're clever at getting around things.

00:40:10.240 But putting out a public statement, that's a key, or a written statement on behalf of these

00:40:15.760 innocent children who are just being mutilated, right?

00:40:19.640 And these policies, they're unconscionable.

00:40:22.160 As I said earlier in the show, the Marxists wouldn't dream of doing this on their own people,

00:40:25.920 right?

00:40:26.400 There's none of this going on in Russia or China, right?

00:40:29.160 This is a neo-Marxist takedown in this country.

00:40:32.920 And passive Christians are letting it happen. 0.97

00:40:36.080 Before we let you go, Ralph, tell us how people can get to you, contact you, help your group.

00:40:41.140 And then, well, just first give us your coordinates there so people can reach out and support you.

00:40:48.580 They can reach us at faithandfreedom at ffcoalition, ff as in faithandfreedomcoalition.com.

00:40:56.020 And Dave, as you know, in the next roughly 90 days, we're going to knock on the doors of 10 million homes with 17 to 18 million evangelical and Bible-believing Christians in those homes.

00:41:12.080 It's the largest ground game for the faith community in the history of modern American politics.

00:41:17.900 Every one of the issues that you and I have talked about is going to be on those door hangers and on those voter guides.

00:41:25.180 And there's one other I want to mention, Dave.

00:41:27.000 It's critical.

00:41:28.220 And that is their Supreme Court packing plan.

00:41:31.260 Their scheme to repeal the filibuster in the Senate.

00:41:35.040 If Kamala Harris becomes president, they will repeal the filibuster if they have the Senate, and they will impose term limits on the conservative judges, and they'll get rid of three justices. 0.72

00:41:47.740 They'll appoint radical left-wingers to every one of them, and we will not only lose the presidency and the White House, we'll lose the Supreme Court and, with it, our country.

00:41:57.740 Every one of those issues, Dave, 10 to 12 issues will go on door hangers, will be presented to those 17 to 18 million voters with an emphasis on Christian voters that don't turn out in every election, so-called low-propensity voters.

00:42:16.080 And if people want to volunteer to walk their neighborhood, to organize their church, go to ffcoalition.com.

00:42:23.360 There's a place to volunteer.

00:42:24.640 Dave, we will have over 10,000 paid staff and volunteers in the battleground states knocking on those 10 million doors, and when we do so, ignore the polls.

00:42:38.260 Forget about the polls, because if you're talking about 17 to 18 million voters that are reached at the door that are going to turn out at 5%, 10%, 15% higher rate than they normally would,

00:42:50.120 you're talking about a million and a half to 2 million votes they're not even counting on.

00:42:55.500 Yep.

00:42:56.220 Hey, Ralph, before you go, just real quick, I just want to heighten the energy for the evangelicals, for the Catholic brothers and sisters out there, for our Jewish friends.

00:43:07.320 What percent of the religious community is not voting right now?

00:43:11.580 It's staggering.

00:43:12.520 It is staggering.

00:43:14.660 We estimate among evangelical Christians alone, it's about 17 million, about half of whom are not registered, and about half of whom are registered but don't vote.

00:43:26.800 So that's 27% of the electorate.

00:43:30.820 It's about 42 million total voters.

00:43:33.560 So if we got the unregistered registered, it would rise to about 51 million, and if we got all of them to vote, there's virtually no national election that we could not swing.

00:43:47.120 It's the largest single constituency in the electorate.

00:43:50.780 It's bigger than the Hispanic vote, the African-American vote, and the union vote combined.

00:43:56.280 All we got to do, Dave, is make sure these folks understand what's on the line, what the issues are that could be affected, how it could affect them, their family, and their children, and make it clear to them they have a Christian obligation and a responsibility to be an effective citizen, be informed, and vote.

00:44:19.000 This isn't about one party versus another.

00:44:21.680 It's not about left and right.

00:44:23.140 The Bible teaches that we are to be effective and empowered citizens of both a heavenly kingdom that is yet to fully come and the earthly kingdom wherever God has planted us.

00:44:38.040 And this is not an option.

00:44:40.300 We've got to be informed.

00:44:41.720 We've got to vote.

00:44:42.520 That's the work we're doing right now, Dave.

00:44:45.880 Yep.

00:44:46.480 No better man.

00:44:47.360 Ralph Reed, his entire life has been devoted to the Christian mission, the church, getting effective citizens.

00:44:54.840 Remember, in this country, under our Constitution, we the people are the sovereign.

00:45:00.140 Romans 13 says, obey your rulers.

00:45:02.700 In the United States of America, you are the rulers.

00:45:06.080 Your congressmen and women and senators all serve you.

00:45:09.760 The people are in charge.

00:45:11.220 You need to be an effective moral leader.

00:45:14.100 So, Ralph Reed, thanks for your leadership and your life work.

00:45:16.720 And God bless you.

00:45:17.560 Thanks for being in the war room today, brother.

00:45:20.100 Thank you, Dave.

00:45:20.820 Great to be with you.

00:45:21.980 I want to warn you of a huge change that could be coming to our money and our bank accounts.

00:45:27.260 First, think back to 9-11, shortly after the government pushed through the Patriot Act.

00:45:31.260 This gave the government power to spy on innocent Americans by monitoring our phone and email and tracking our movement across the Internet.

00:45:39.280 Now, Jim Rickards, editor of the independent financial newsletter Strategic Intelligence and New York Times bestselling author, is warning about a coming event that could elevate this governmental surveillance to a terrifying new level.

00:45:52.980 In fact, some of the guests I've had on the war room believe that the government will soon expand their powers to track our every move.

00:46:00.880 If we say the wrong things on social media, donate to the wrong causes, buy firearms, or even vote MAGA, the government may be able to shut us out of our bank accounts.

00:46:11.760 I can't say for sure if this will happen, but it's an interesting and dire warning.

00:46:17.160 Fortunately, Jim Rickards, an American patriot and friend of mine, has made it his mission to educate us on what he believes is coming and how to protect yourself from the possibility of programmable money.

00:46:29.780 Watch Jim's warning video now before it's censored like I've been in the past.

00:46:35.380 Go to RickardsWarRoom.com.

00:46:37.380 That's RickardsWarRoom.com now to see the video.

00:46:40.860 Let's go to J.D. Vance to close out this segment, and then we'll go to E.J. and Tony.

00:46:48.160 ...migration platform is actually going to make your life better.

00:46:51.220 ...wages go up.

00:46:52.320 It's going to make public safety in your communities better.

00:46:54.240 Look, I'm married to the daughter of legal immigrants.

00:46:56.920 I do believe in my heart that legal immigration can enrich this country, but not illegal immigration, which is what Kamala Harris has done all over this country.

00:47:06.760 ...it's made us less safe, it's driven down wages for working Americans, and it's made our communities less prosperous.

00:47:14.320 We've got to stop this craziness.

00:47:16.200 President Trump and I are going to do it.

00:47:17.820 And on that topic, I know that was the last question, but let me just offer one final observation again about these guys in the back.

00:47:24.500 Law enforcement is fundamentally a team effort.

00:47:27.260 You need the federal government to do what it needs to do.

00:47:29.280 You need the state government and the local governments to be empowered to keep people safe.

00:47:33.300 What is so broken about American public safety, it's not our local police officers who are doing great things.

00:47:38.700 It's not our state leadership who's very often doing great things.

00:47:42.020 It is the federal government allowing criminals who shouldn't be here, promoting sex trafficking and drug trafficking at our southern border.

00:47:49.440 It is making these guys' jobs so much more difficult.

00:47:52.500 And it's making it difficult in ways that we don't even always see.

00:47:55.500 I talked earlier to these guys behind me a little bit earlier.

00:47:59.500 We talked about the fact that when they have illegal aliens and they have to provide food and housing for those illegal aliens, 0.89

00:48:06.400 that's precious tax dollars that don't go into hiring additional officers that they need.

00:48:11.040 So we have been put in a zero-sum situation by Kamala Harris where we can prioritize the interests of American citizens and their safety,

00:48:18.320 or we can prioritize the health benefits of illegal aliens.

00:48:22.080 We have got to prioritize our own citizens.

00:48:24.440 This crime problem is a policy choice of Kamala Harris.

00:48:28.880 We can do so much better.

00:48:30.220 Elect Donald Trump, and we will.

00:48:31.520 God bless you guys, and thank you.

00:48:39.200 Bring up.

00:48:40.580 Yep, ready.

00:48:45.740 All right, the great J.D. Vance hitting it out of the park.

00:48:49.240 We appreciate him and all he's doing for this country already.

00:48:53.060 I want to go to E.J. and Tony right now.

00:48:57.620 E.J. has been holding on all this breaking vice presidential messaging.

00:49:04.520 And so, E.J., thanks for being with us today.

00:49:07.340 I know you wanted to give us a download.

00:49:09.240 What caused the massive downturn in the markets the other day?

00:49:13.960 And what does that tell us about the fragility or strength of our stock market system and our economy?

00:49:20.960 E.J., thanks for being with us.

00:49:23.180 Well, my pleasure, David.

00:49:24.120 A lot of it has to do, actually, with Japan.

00:49:27.180 The Japanese central bank has been keeping their interest rates incredibly artificially low for a very, very long time.

00:49:34.400 We're talking decades of near zero interest rates.

00:49:37.520 In fact, for several years, interest rates were actually negative.

00:49:40.460 In other words, banks had to pay interest to the central bank, believe it or not, for keeping money on deposit there.

00:49:47.900 And so what this did was create an arbitrage opportunity.

00:49:50.680 In other words, people could literally borrow money in Japan and then take that money and invest it here in the United States, especially in things like stocks.

00:50:00.440 And the proceeds from those stock gains could then be used to pay off the interest on the loans in Japan, plus you have a little bit left over at the end.

00:50:09.240 This is commonly referred to as a carry trade.

00:50:12.100 The problem with a carry trade is that the margins are incredibly slim.

00:50:16.280 So you're really not getting that much of a rate of a return.

00:50:19.740 And that makes sense.

00:50:20.760 If there was a sizable return, then everybody would do it, and essentially the carry trade would collapse.

00:50:27.620 So what happens is people leverage.

00:50:30.060 In other words, they will borrow money to make this happen, to increase their margins, to increase their rate of returns.

00:50:36.960 But some people have likened this maneuver to trying to pick up pennies in front of a steamroller.

00:50:42.780 And sure, it works just fine so long as you can outpace that steamroller.

00:50:46.740 But if it ever surges ahead, you're in trouble.

00:50:49.740 That's basically what has happened the last few days because the Japanese central bank raised interest rates, and only slightly, I might add.

00:50:57.300 But it was enough to blow up what is literally a $20 trillion market.

00:51:02.520 So there's a lot of money at play here, David.

00:51:05.680 And what we're seeing now is the Japanese central bank essentially capitulate and reverse course.

00:51:12.960 And now this basically means that they are going to go right back to reducing interest rates, to printing more money, and to devaluing that currency.

00:51:21.980 This is very, very alarming because it's probably a sign of what other central banks around the world are going to continue doing.

00:51:30.300 In other words, we can expect a lot more inflation in a lot of places around the world.

00:51:35.160 Yeah, great summary, EJ.

00:51:38.600 And so, you know, several very interesting points about what you just raised.

00:51:42.940 Number one, Japan is acting against their own self-interest right now, right? 0.84

00:51:47.460 They wanted to change interest rate policy.

00:51:49.420 Now they can't do it because they just created a global tsunami.

00:51:52.640 You just said $20 trillion in this carry trade business.

00:51:56.640 And so our stock markets are set up almost like a casino based on what you're saying, right?

00:52:02.220 These are highly leveraged bets that can bring the United States of America to its knees.

00:52:08.480 Yesterday, when you looked at the stock block, right, with all the stocks in there and Finviz, go out and visit them, it was completely red.

00:52:16.360 So a carry trade in Japan brought down the entire United States stock market, has grave economic implications as well.

00:52:25.120 And so if you're running the country, EJ, what would you advise the President of the United States and the Congress to do to get us out of this?

00:52:35.620 America first means we need to organize this economy for the American worker, not for the rich 10 percent who own 90 percent of all these stocks that are doing all these leveraged trades.

00:52:45.800 So how do you reorganize the stock market, the Federal Reserve, the economy to serve the American people better?

00:52:53.660 Well, David, I think one of the things you have to do is you have to reduce the size of government.

00:53:00.060 You have to get those government expenditures down because it is the government spending and borrowing that made all of the printing of those trillions of dollars necessary.

00:53:10.500 That's why we had the artificially low interest rates.

00:53:13.160 And Japan really is in the same boat.

00:53:15.500 They're essentially a warning sign to the United States in terms of what we have to look forward to if we don't get our government under control, if we don't actually get the spending down.

00:53:28.840 Their debt-to-GDP ratios, for example, are even worse than we have them here in the United States.

00:53:34.900 And so, again, it is very much a foretaste of what we have to look forward to if we don't actually solve the fiscal problems in the United States.

00:53:46.040 It is the fiscal problems that have led to the monetary problems.

00:53:50.280 And what is Japan doing right now to try to essentially paper over the problem that they've created over the course of several decades? 0.84

00:53:57.320 They are devaluing their currency even further than it already has been devalued the last several years.

00:54:04.180 So, again, the United States dollar has been greatly devalued in the last three and a half, four years.

00:54:09.740 And we can go a heck of a lot further if we don't get our fiscal house in order.

00:54:15.740 Yep, yep.

00:54:16.740 Hey, EJ, Stephen K. Bannon always says the leftists are not going to hand the keys over to you, even if you win an election.

00:54:23.880 You have to take the keys from them and then run this country on the basis of what's good for the American people.

00:54:31.800 So, in closing, why don't you name two or three things?

00:54:34.480 I have, you know, the Republicans that voted for the $7 trillion budget, right, the woke and weaponized budget.

00:54:40.520 Everybody at home in the war room posse ought to be looking up that vote.

00:54:44.600 And if your congressmen or senators or governors are voting for policy like that, right,

00:54:50.480 we've just heard devastating results to our own children that comes out of that bill.

00:54:54.880 But can you name a couple other items that people should look up and see what their leadership has done

00:55:00.900 and then give them a phone call to get them to serve our country better?

00:55:05.340 Oh, certainly, David.

00:55:06.640 And what I'm about to say applies just as equally to if you have a Republican representative or a Democrat representative or a senator, whatever the case.

00:55:14.240 This is about policy, not politics here, just to be clear.

00:55:18.000 You need to look up and see what your elective representatives have voted for.

00:55:22.060 Did they vote for these bloated budgets?

00:55:23.960 Did they vote for the deceptively named Inflation Reduction Act or the Infrastructure Bill or ARPA, whatever the case may be?

00:55:31.080 Find out if they voted for any of these bloated spending bills and then call up their offices and say,

00:55:36.880 you are the reason that I can't afford groceries.

00:55:41.140 You are the reason I am paying two, three times as much as I used to for a dozen eggs.

00:55:46.500 You are the reason I'm driving around on bald tires because I can't afford new ones for my vehicle.

00:55:51.940 I can barely even afford the car insurance, right?

00:55:54.660 You need to say your vote that bloated and expanded the budget so much caused the inflationary nightmare

00:56:02.000 and the cost of living crisis that I, your constituent, am dealing with.

00:56:05.940 It is your fault that I am in this position and I am not going to vote for you again.

00:56:11.920 Yep.

00:56:12.560 E.J. and Tony, very well said.

00:56:14.540 This is not partisan.

00:56:15.620 This is populist.

00:56:16.800 As Stephen K. Bannon says, I think we got 70 to 75 percent of common sense Americans on our side.

00:56:23.300 E.J., thanks for being with us on The War Room today.

00:56:25.680 God bless you and all the work you continue to do.

00:56:28.500 Thank you for having me, David.

00:56:30.600 You bet.

00:56:31.460 All right.

00:56:32.120 Our next guest has been a personal friend of mine for years.

00:56:35.380 She's at Regent University now.

00:56:37.500 She used to be a firebrand in the U.S. Congress, a bold Christian leader, a friend of Israel.

00:56:45.000 She's going around the globe in the recent weeks fighting for Israel, always America first, before there was an America first. 0.64

00:56:54.260 And that would be Congressman Michelle Bachman.

00:56:57.420 Michelle, welcome to the show.

00:56:58.700 A Minnesotan.

00:57:00.260 And we wanted to hear you.

00:57:02.280 We know you served many, many years with now Governor Waltz.

00:57:08.400 And maybe you could highlight some of the policy disasters that he's presided over in Minnesota.

00:57:15.200 And I know you've shared a few with me already.

00:57:17.540 It's just stunning what you've shared.

00:57:19.140 So fire away, Michelle.

00:57:20.080 Well, it is.

00:57:21.680 And thank you, David, for having me.

00:57:23.960 It really is an amazing person and choice that Kamala Harris made.

00:57:29.320 It's inexplicable.

00:57:30.580 If you want the country to repair from these last three and a half years, you would never choose Tim Walz because Tim Walz has a proven record.

00:57:40.560 He actually has accomplishments, but they're all in line with bringing Minnesota to a place of suicide politically.

00:57:50.880 And what do I mean by that?

00:57:52.660 Well, two years ago, 19,000 people from Minnesota left the state.

00:57:58.520 This is a state that when people are born into it, they die here.

00:58:02.520 It's generations of families.

00:58:04.080 People don't leave Minnesota.

00:58:05.480 It's very family-oriented, even though it's cold.

00:58:08.380 It's a beautiful place to be.

00:58:10.040 But under Tim Walz, something happened that never happened before.

00:58:13.780 People packed up.

00:58:14.980 They started leaving the state, and they're taking their assets.

00:58:18.100 The most productive people are leaving.

00:58:20.940 They're closing down their businesses, and they're letting their employees go.

00:58:25.600 This last year, 30,000 people packed up, one of the highest states that people fled from.

00:58:32.800 They took $2 billion in assets out of this state.

00:58:36.520 We've never seen anything like this.

00:58:38.880 After COVID, Minnesota was one of the slowest recovering states, and it's because of Tim Walz.

00:58:44.500 Well, what did he do?

00:58:45.720 Here's what he did.

00:58:46.940 He increased state spending in a downturn by 40 percent.

00:58:53.000 Who increases state spending in one year 40 percent?

00:58:58.180 We had a $17 billion surplus.

00:59:01.740 Oh, he blew through that surplus, and then he left the Minnesota taxpayers with an additional $8 to $10 billion in new taxes that we're going to have to raise.

00:59:13.740 Why?

00:59:14.360 Because he exploded Minnesota government.

00:59:17.840 How did he do that?

00:59:18.860 He decided in Minnesota—David, you remember, you lived here—the coal-dest state, he said to Minnesota, 0.87

00:59:26.920 oh, the natural gas, the coal, the hydropower, the nuclear power you've been using to have fairly reasonable energy costs because you're the coal-dest state, well, that's gone.

00:59:38.140 We're going to dismantle all of that, and they're doing that right now.

00:59:41.820 We're dismantling all your sources of energy.

00:59:44.700 The only thing you get is solar power, which is 200 percent more expensive than the energy we had, and wind power, which is 50 percent more expensive than what you had.

00:59:57.040 Then he put these unreasonable mandates on businesses, so if you own a commercial building, a building that's not a house, you have to decrease your energy costs by 80 percent.

01:00:11.240 Who can do that?

01:00:13.000 So people are throwing up their hands in Minnesota.

01:00:15.900 Walls is not light in Minnesota.

01:00:18.340 They're throwing up their hands at their normal people who want to make a living and do better by their family, and they're selling their business.

01:00:25.820 They're letting their employees go.

01:00:27.920 They're taking whatever assets they have.

01:00:30.180 They're moving out.

01:00:31.800 So what he did to business is a disaster in Minnesota.

01:00:36.320 He's destroyed businesses.

01:00:38.480 He's destroyed.

01:00:39.660 He's made the cost of living so expensive for people that what he's doing is he's increasing all the welfare programs, but there's no revenue coming in to pay for them.

01:00:50.620 Yep.

01:00:51.380 Michelle, we're going to hold you after the break.

01:00:53.600 Uh, and I think you've just started warming up, but you know, how can a football, he's a football coach and he, he's a hunter.
