Shots fired near the former president's golf course at Trump National Golf Club, and a bystander was injured in the attack, but the shooter is dead. President Trump is fine and in good spirits, and will continue to fight for his country.
00:04:00.760We're in the middle of a war on truth.
00:04:02.160The media, the left, the congressional committees have all waged a war on truth.
00:04:06.840I think there needs to be questions, investigations.
00:04:09.640In a lot of ways, really a miracle last night.
00:04:12.620This is just going to make him stronger, and I just pray it wakes more people up across this country.
00:04:19.700We all kind of knew that somewhere along the line, some nutjob would take it upon themselves to listen to the celebrities, to listen to the New York Times opinion writers.
00:04:29.800This is an explosion of emotion, spirituality, and patriotism that, once again, it feels like 9-12.
00:04:39.800We're at a point in our nation that we have to make the same sacrifices and say, will we do that for our posterity?
00:07:53.240Walk us through the emotions you're going through right now and what you went through that day.
00:07:57.440Well, Ben, it is kind of a special moment to be back here in Butler.
00:08:01.700And I've got to tell you, when it first unfolded right in front of America, right in front of live TV, I didn't think it was really happening.
00:08:08.460I thought something else, firecrackers had gone off or something bizarre that he wasn't actually shot.
00:08:13.960But then once we realized the president was shot, at that point was a moment of, oh, my goodness, like, this country is going to be changed forever in the way not only President Trump moves forward as a campaign, as a potential president.
00:08:34.120But then that's where our two political parties are so divided right now.
00:08:42.540I've talked to a lot of people here on the ground, people who live in the community.
00:08:46.660This means a lot for the president to come back here.
00:08:48.780It's a sense of closure for this community.
00:08:50.920It's a sense of closure for the president, I think.
00:08:53.700And it's a moment we all move forward to take back this country.
00:08:57.740And it means coming back here to the scene of the crime and showing defiance and leadership and saying, look, we've got to move forward, save this country.
00:09:07.280And the people of Butler and the people of Pennsylvania are here to do that today.
00:09:10.540And in that moment, you know, even afterwards, we weren't sure how bad he was injured.
00:09:27.140I knew that his life, I didn't think, was going to be ultimately in jeopardy, that he was able to at least put up the sign, fight, fight, fight, and look like he was cognitive and knew what was going on.
00:09:38.560But my second thing that went on, and I want to talk to Jack a little bit about this later, is how many more snipers are there?
00:09:47.960Are there more people that could potentially shoot at the media or at the crowd?
00:09:52.100That's what was going through my head, is are we the next target of potential bullets?
00:09:57.780So that definitely went through my mind.
00:10:01.620But I didn't think we were completely safe in tour until the whole place was cleared out.
00:10:06.600And then I felt like, okay, at least the perimeter, I think, has been secured and that we're safe now.
00:10:11.260But in the very beginning, I thought there was a chance that, Ben, that more people could, yeah, who knew?
00:10:17.680I mean, and you look at the Democrats aligning with Hamas now, marching out there with these guys.
00:10:22.120We're heading into a dangerous time in our country's history.
00:10:25.440But what I love about this, when they said they were coming back to Butler, my initial thought was, well, they're going to go somewhere else.
00:11:01.720You're going to have, what I've been told, some paratroopers dropping down in here into the rally.
00:11:07.060It's going to be something special to watch.
00:11:08.780But I think if you're going to come back to Butler, not only come back to the city, come back to the exact location, but then make it bigger than ever.
00:11:16.540And do we expect anything less out of President Trump?
00:11:54.120Because I dropped on my knees for about two minutes this morning, prayed for the rally, prayed for the president, prayed for our enemies, prayed for everyone, because we definitely need prayers today.
00:13:07.360Look, we're living in a country now where we have political assassinations, where we have political prisoners like Steve Bannon.
00:13:16.300Ladies and gentlemen, let's hear it up for Stephen K. Bannon.
00:13:21.120I want to hear a cheer for Steve Bannon that's loud enough that he'll be able to hear us all the way inside the walls of FCI Danbury inside.
00:13:29.300And I will tell you, folks, I will tell you that I emailed with Steve Bannon.
00:13:33.660I got a message from Steve Bannon out from behind those walls of FCI Danbury.
00:13:39.140And I told him, I said, Steve, the war room is going to be on the ground at Butler, Pennsylvania.
00:13:46.020If President Trump is going to be there, then the war room posse is going to be there to back him up all the way.
00:23:21.920There's all sorts of names, the cabal, whatever.
00:23:23.760We realize that when you look at the disastrous response to Hurricane Helene that's going on from this government, that I'm not sure who exactly is in charge of our government, but I'll tell you one thing.
00:23:36.020It's not the citizens of this country.
00:23:38.200It is disgusting how much money we have spent on foreign intervention and foreign war while our own brothers and sisters have just been massively damaged by this hurricane.
00:23:48.820Lives ruined, lives lost, hundreds of lives.
00:23:52.660It should be easy to say, we are going to provide this relief.
00:23:55.700Unfortunately for us, if the money's not going to Ukraine or some other foreign country for some war we shouldn't be involved in, it's going to non-citizens, illegal immigrants who are getting free money to settle here.
00:24:04.820And you know what I'll add on top of this?
00:24:06.260Before Hurricane Helene hit, which has now driven me to the brink, I am sick to my stomach to see Gen Z struggling in this country when we are supposed to be building a society and a civilization that we hand off to the next generation.
00:24:18.240Why is it that young people in our great cities can't afford rent, can't find jobs, but Eric Adams was going to give $4,000 to an illegal immigrant, many of them, to permanently settle in this country?
00:24:32.220If there's somebody who lives in Honduras and they're facing troubles, we want to make sure we can help them.
00:24:35.720But guess what? I can't give you our money, our country can't give that money away until we know that our youngest, our best and our brightest, have a future for them.
00:24:45.280Otherwise, all we're doing is burning down a country, and then if we claim to want to help illegal immigrants or whoever else, we're going to be handing them a pile of ashes.
00:24:52.400So the first thing you have to do is put on the mask of the person sitting next to you before putting on your own, and everyone knows that.
00:24:57.400And that doesn't mean letting people on the plane. It means Gen Z needs a functioning system with affordable homes and good-paying jobs so that they can have families, be encouraged to have families,
00:25:08.740after we've solved all of our problems of homelessness, poverty, security, terror, whatever it may be, foreign war, maybe then we can have discussion about if other people deserve our money.
00:25:19.000When President Trump said, America first, and people thought that meant, oh, we don't care about the rest of the world, and that's nothing new, he said, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:25:28.060America's going to have a presence where America's going to have a presence.
00:25:30.880But the point is, it's a system of prioritization.
00:25:35.820So it means that, look, if there's no electric grid in North Carolina because a hurricane comes in and destroys all the electricity of western North Carolina,
00:25:48.060then I want to go to our backup supply of electric transformers, of power transformers.
00:25:53.320But then when we do, we find out that all of those power transformers have been shipped over to Kiev because they're setting up the electric grid of Ukraine.
00:26:02.300And then Samantha Power is over there with USAID saying, oh, I'm here and we've set up the power system.
00:26:09.720You have set up a system where you are putting the foreign interests ahead of the interests of the American people.
00:26:15.780And when there are women and children dying in the floodwaters of North Carolina, when there are one-week-old babies who are being killed because they can't get nutrition,
00:26:25.740because they can't get it out there in our own country, then I'm sorry.
00:26:28.700It gets me to the point where I'm just like, I never want to hear about Ukraine again.
00:26:33.000If you want to give money to Ukraine, how are you going to do that if the people of this country who make that money have no homes, have no roads, have no food?
00:26:40.740We have to make sure that Americans are first priority for disaster relief, not illegal immigrants and not foreign countries.
00:27:04.020And don't tell me for a second, don't tell me for a second that what we're not seeing is a massive government-pushed voter suppression operation.
00:27:12.880Because it's not just about ruining the counties and ruining the towns, it's about letting those towns wither on the vine, the vote doesn't come in, and then boom, Kamala Harris wins Georgia, Kamala Harris wins North Carolina, because the votes don't exist.
00:27:29.400We are not going to stop, and I'm going to talk to Elon about this if I get a chance to even speak to him today.
00:27:34.420We need to make sure that every single one of those people are able to vote, especially, by the way, hey, if the federal government hasn't done anything for you while a hurricane destroyed your house, then I definitely want your vote coming in.
00:27:51.740We say we're doing all of this for the right of democracy.
00:27:54.520Then what about the right of the people to vote in western North Carolina and northern Georgia and southern Virginia and east Tennessee and the people of Appalachia, the good...
00:36:39.960And have you ever seen in your entire life a man for that when the bullets were flying, when he had already been hit once, he stood back up.
00:36:55.680He put his hand in the air and he did that for every single person in this country, for every single person that's born, that's pre-born, that hasn't been born yet.
00:37:06.400That all the generations that have come before, all the generations that will come after.
00:37:10.680And he said one word, the one word that came to his lips, that he said, whenever you get knocked down, whenever you take a shot, whenever you come, whenever they come for your head, the only thing you can do is get back on your feet and fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight.
00:37:33.140I've never in my entire life seen something like that before.
00:37:36.740And I pray to God that we'll never have to see anything like that again, folks.
00:37:42.040But I'll tell you one thing, that if Donald J. Trump is there, whatever hit he's going to get hit with, he's going to come right back up on his feet.
00:37:50.660And that's why, for all of us, to give us that energy.
00:37:54.520And by the way, I have to say it, and that's why, and we used, so we're doing a book on the assassination, both assassination attempts, by the way.
00:38:01.020Because you can't take Ukraine out of the question.
00:38:04.640A foreign fighter from Ukraine came back to the United States, went down to Mar-a-Lago, went down to West Palm Beach, Trump International, and laid in wait to shoot him.
00:38:16.100He was found. He was taken out. But you can't ask the question. You can't leave the question unanswered.
00:38:23.720How did he get back to the United States? How did he know Trump was going to be golfing that day?
00:38:28.560How did he get the gun when he was a convicted villain for 20 years with a shaved-off serial number and all the rest?
00:38:34.380We are going to get to the bottom of it. And that's why we wrote the book, Bulletproof, because the man is bulletproof.
00:38:39.920And the picture that we used for the cover is the one image of Trump that we've never seen before.
00:38:47.080You've seen him standing before. You've seen him with his hand up before. It's true.
00:38:51.640But what's the one image that you've never seen of Trump until that day?
00:39:01.660On his knees in prayer and giving homage to Almighty God.
00:39:06.580And I believe, and I don't care what the mainstream media says, I don't care what the fact-checkers say, I don't care what CNN says,
00:39:12.860no one is ever going to be able to tell me that Donald Trump was not saved by the hand of God that day.
00:39:22.480The armor of God, the sword of St. Michael the Archangel, we know what saved Donald Trump that day.
00:39:28.420And Donald Trump, who, let's be fair, doesn't, you know, he's not exactly known for his religious views.
00:39:35.140To be fair, to be fair, the very first thing he said was, I give thanks to Almighty God because I was not supposed to survive that day.
00:39:44.140And I believe that I was given the opportunity to be spared from death for a reason from God Almighty, for a mission from God Almighty, that God saved Trump so Trump can save America.
00:40:02.280That is what this is about, that is what it's about, and when you see a miracle, when you see a miracle before your eyes, when you see God working through perhaps the most unlikeliest of individuals,
00:40:14.980that's how you know that it's all real, ladies and gentlemen.
00:40:19.300The flag, which is still there, by the way, it's up today, you can't quite see it from our vantage point, we'll get a shot of it.
00:40:27.820The flag is back, ladies and gentlemen, and the flag formed the shape of an angel.
00:40:33.300She's exactly right, the flag formed a shape of an angel.
00:40:37.240We saw it, we all saw it, the entire world saw it.
00:40:40.520Never let them tell you, never forget that you saw a miracle on that field right behind us 84 days ago.
00:40:50.340You saw a miracle before your very eyes.
00:40:52.340And when you see that, you must take that energy, and you must take that confidence, and you must put that into, as Steve Bannon would say if he were here,
00:41:02.220action, action, action, that we must work to take this country back.
00:41:08.280We're going to take it back from the corruption.
00:41:09.700We're going to take it back from the corrupt regime overlords who are sending money overseas
00:41:14.760when they should be sending money to the hurricane victims in western North Carolina,
00:41:19.660and the people of North Georgia, and the people of Virginia.
00:41:22.740And if those people will not be allowed to vote, then we are going to hold this election open.
00:41:27.700You say we've got to wait a couple of days?
00:41:29.520We are going to wait until every single vote in western North Carolina, every single village, every single mountain town.
00:41:36.320I don't care if there's a landslide or a mudslide.
00:41:39.420We're going to have every single one of the votes of Appalachia counted in this election.
00:41:44.000Homes across America are being stolen every day.
00:41:50.220It's called title theft, and it's why you need to get home title protection from HomeTitleLock.com today.
00:41:57.240If no one's keeping an eye on your title, then it's just a matter of time until they target you too.
00:46:39.940And anyway, we went ahead, and I threw my wife down on the ground, and her head landed in Dave McCormick's lap.
00:46:50.540That's where we were sitting, and Mike Kelly, he was on the ground, and then we all stood up.
00:46:58.640Somebody said somebody got shot, which turned out to be Corey.
00:47:02.600Rico, who we had been talking to all day, he jumped the fence, went up, and he was helping.
00:47:08.200And then what had happened was I called back for help.
00:47:15.020They came running, and then the police got there and said, everybody jumped down again.
00:47:22.040But we heard the bullets over our heads, and when we all jumped down again onto the ground, Mike Kelly kept standing up,
00:47:31.820and he was like, I'm going to go get these guys, you know.
00:47:33.860And I'm yelling, get down, get down, and finally he did get down, and Vicki later said, thanks, Craig, for getting him down because we can't lose Mike Kelly, you know.
00:47:43.840But, yeah, it was something for us for the next week or so because we never came so close to having bullets over our heads, and thank God, you know, Trump was okay, of course.
00:47:56.240Can I ask, what does it feel like to be back here today after having gone through that and to be in the very same spot?
00:48:06.000I would say I'm a lot more aware of all the snipers.
00:48:11.000I'm like, because I don't remember seeing that this many last time.
00:48:16.140I think they were, from what I can tell, it looks like there's a lot more than there were that day.
00:48:21.200I'm like, maybe there were, but I just wasn't paying attention last time, but I do not remember seeing this much security.
00:48:28.460So that said, do you feel safe being here today?
00:48:43.060Yeah, but it was an experience, and it was something that we've thought about almost every single day since then, and we were glad to be able to come today.
00:48:52.960And fortunately, it's a beautiful day, and it's not 93 degrees like it was that day.
00:49:00.600Yeah, I've talked to some folks who told me that they were still a little shaken up, and they said they, even though they were shaken up, they felt like it was good to be back here because they said they want to confront.
00:49:16.160They wanted to confront those emotions and to go through it and to be here again, and that's a way to sort of overcome, in a way, what happened that day by taking something negative and turning it into something positive.
00:49:28.960Well, I definitely think that there for about 10 days, we had some, I think we had some PSTD from that, you know, because it was, you know, we talked to some people that were actually in Vietnam, and they said they were never, I mean, they were there, and thank God for them and their heroes, but they never had bullets over their head like we did, and it was scary.
00:49:51.440I never expected, we never expected to be on the ground, you know, protecting our lives.
00:49:58.640And that's how it is, you never know when it's going to be a moment like that.
00:50:02.840I want to thank you both for being here today, for having the courage, thank you for being here, and thank you for protecting her and coming in, and I hope that you guys, I think it's going to be a beautiful day today, a fantastic rally.
00:50:14.440Elon Musk is here, we're doing the Cybertruck, we've got the Starlink on top for some, that's our backup internet, in case the main internet goes down, so I hope you guys have a really wonderful day, and God bless you both for being here, absolutely.
00:50:30.820Look, folks, there's a lot of people here, there's a lot of emotions running high, there's a lot of energy in the crowd as well, it's a mix of being sentimental about what happened 84 days ago,
00:50:43.340but there's also an edge and a deeper spirit of understanding that we will push through and overcome that day, we will actually challenge that day head on.
00:50:54.860And that's why when President Trump put the call out to say, we are returning to Butler, and you can see, and you can see right behind me, the red buildings, this is the building actually where the counter snipers fired the shot to take out the shooter.
00:51:08.620We're going back to the very same spot, and the very same field of miracles.
00:51:16.220We're right back, ladies and gentlemen, the War Room continues here live in Butler, Pennsylvania.
00:51:20.780With the massive tax hikes proposed by Harris, an almost 40% top income tax rate, 7% increase to the corporate tax, a capital gains tax on unrealized gains,
00:51:32.380and the fact that she's proposing to add almost $2 trillion to a current $2 trillion deficit.
00:51:39.120You might be thinking it's time to make more of your savings tax sheltered and inflation sheltered.
00:51:44.440This is where I trust the good people at Birch Gold to help you.
00:51:48.040Birch Gold will assist you in converting an existing IRA or 401k into an IRA in gold.
00:51:54.880And the best news, you don't pay a penny out of pocket.
00:51:57.700Just text the word Bannon to 989898 and get a free info kit on gold.
00:52:04.460There's no obligation, just information on fortifying your savings before the crazy times really hit.
00:52:10.760With an A-plus rating, with a better business bureau, and thousands of happy customers, you can trust Birch Gold too.
00:52:20.800I want to warn you of a huge change that could be coming to our money and our bank accounts.
00:52:26.100First, think back to 9-11, shortly after the government pushed through the Patriot Act.
00:52:30.620This gave the government power to spy on innocent Americans by monitoring our phone and email and tracking our movement across the Internet.
00:52:38.120Now, 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.
00:52:51.800In 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.
00:52:59.720If 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.
00:53:10.580I can't say for sure if this will happen, but it's an interesting and dire warning.
00:53:16.000Fortunately, 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.
00:53:28.620Watch Jim's warning video now before it's censored like I've been in the past.
00:53:36.220That's RickardsWarRoom.com now to see the video.
00:53:41.120Hey, War Room. Hope you're all doing well.
00:53:43.100My name is Trevor Comstock. I'm one of the co-creators of Sacred Human, and I wanted to share just a little bit more about our brand for those who may not know of us yet.
00:53:51.200But about six months ago, we decided to launch Sacred Human with really the simple mission being to provide American-made natural supplements without all the artificial nonsense.
00:54:02.400So unfortunately, as many of you know, a lot of these big corporate supplements will include things like preservatives, artificial ingredients, and other additives that really aren't benefiting your health.
00:54:13.140So that's why we created Sacred Human, really trying to fill this gap with quality supplements, and of course, the beef liver being our flagship product.
00:54:20.560For those who don't know, beef liver is loaded with highly bioavailable ingredients such as vitamin A, B12, zinc, CoQ10, etc.
00:54:30.860And because it is 100% grass-fed and natural, your body is able to absorb these nutrients far better than taking any other synthetic multivitamin or any other synthetic vitamin in general.
00:54:42.780So we have some other amazing products, but if you'd like to check us out, you can go to sacredhumanhealth.com, and cheers to your health.
