Bannon's War Room - Episode 4069： Reinstituting Civilian Control Over The Pentagon; Senate Must Vote For MAGA

00:00:00.260 Steve Bannon, one of the president-elect's original supporters and favorite podcasters,

00:00:05.480 will have a renewed sense of self and a greater sense of power.

00:00:09.140 Ahead of that day, he's been telling everyone that will listen

00:00:11.740 that he has promised nothing short of brutal revenge against, quote,

00:00:15.460 deep state players who stand in Donald Trump's way.

00:00:19.340 Andrew Rice of New York Magazine was one of the people Bannon spoke to

00:00:22.760 shortly after he was released from prison.

00:00:25.380 And what Bannon proclaimed was that America had rendered a decisive verdict

00:00:28.760 and that they want Trump back.

00:00:31.720 He claims that this happened by a complete remaking of the American electorate.

00:00:36.040 According to Rice, quote,

00:00:37.000 If Bannon had his way, a lot of Democrats, Republicans, turncoats, and denizens of the deep state

00:00:42.880 would be headed to places like Danbury, the prison where Bannon spent the past four months.

00:00:48.180 Those on his target list included President Biden, Hunter Biden, Attorney General Merrick Garland,

00:00:54.000 January 6th Prosecutor Jack Smith, Liz Cheney, Nancy Pelosi,

00:00:57.680 New York Attorney General Tish James, and Manhattan D.A. Alvin Bragg.

00:01:03.360 During a show, Bannon made clear that the principal order of business was revenge

00:01:08.140 because these folks, quote, committed crimes, which he, of course, could not define.

00:01:13.320 I'm going to start with this.

00:01:15.860 Something I'm really, really committed to, and I have said this multiple times,

00:01:19.380 I'm not going to spend the next four years talking about palace intrigue, right?

00:01:22.360 Like, I am concerned with the actual news and policy of what's going on here.

00:01:25.920 So I want to start with this.

00:01:27.580 Does Steve Bannon actually think he will be a part of this incoming administration?

00:01:34.500 Because, look, jobs have been offered to every single reality TV show, Fox News host that's out there,

00:01:40.560 but we haven't heard word that Steve Bannon will actually be getting a security clearance

00:01:44.340 to walk into the White House like a lot of other people.

00:01:46.260 Well, Steve Bannon hasn't himself been offered jobs, but look who has been offered jobs.

00:01:52.840 Matt Gaetz was the former co-host, the fill-in co-host of The War Room,

00:01:58.260 The War Room being his television and podcast that he does on a daily basis.

00:02:05.760 People like Boris Epstein, people like Kash Patel, others who are quite close to the president,

00:02:14.200 frequently appeared on that show and maintained close relations with him.

00:02:17.640 And Trump himself maintains an open line of communication to Bannon.

00:02:22.960 I think it's fair to say that Bannon represents, you know, the id of the MAGA movement,

00:02:30.060 and Donald Trump always likes to stay in touch with that id.

00:02:35.240 So when Bannon is running off this list of people that he wants to destroy,

00:02:41.060 he wants to have them all in prison, does he have a methodology for doing this?

00:02:46.560 And again, why this is important is if we have people who are not elected,

00:02:51.320 but have outsized influence in an incoming administration who can simply say,

00:02:55.280 I don't like this person, and pull the levers of power and have people thrown into jail,

00:03:00.060 that is a dangerous authoritarian state.

00:03:01.920 So how does he think he's going to do this?

00:03:03.300 I mean, he's not AG, right?

00:03:05.260 He's not going to have a department position.

00:03:06.860 So how does he think he's going to throw Joe Biden in jail?

00:03:09.020 How does he think he's going to extra double down jail for Hunter Biden?

00:03:13.120 How does he plan to do or enact the revenge that he talked to you about in this interview?

00:03:18.380 I mean, I think it's pretty clear how he intends for that to happen.

00:03:21.660 He intends for that to happen via Donald Trump.

00:03:24.680 Trump, this isn't just Steve Bannon saying this.

00:03:27.740 I mean, Donald Trump has called for the investigation or prosecution of everyone from Jack Smith to Seltzer,

00:03:38.180 the pollster in Iowa the other day.

00:03:40.180 He was calling for the investigation of her for political information warfare.

00:03:46.720 I mean, Trump himself has talked about prosecuting his enemies.

00:03:50.580 And so the idea that Bannon is endorsing this is he's really a voice in the choir rather than somebody out there alone.

00:04:00.180 I want to play you some sound of some of Bannon's promises of the people he's going to go after and get your thoughts on the other side.

00:04:06.100 I think Mark Milley has to be recalled to active duty on the afternoon of the 20th.

00:04:12.740 And I think a military tribunal, a court-martial has to be called or impaneled, a court-martial.

00:04:19.800 And Mark Milley has to be brought up on charges and court-martial.

00:04:22.640 We're going to burn some of these institutions down to the ground because you know why? 0.95

00:04:26.260 They need to be burned down to the ground, metaphorically. 0.95

00:04:29.400 The Justice Department is getting swept out. 0.94

00:04:31.560 The FBI is getting swept out. 1.00

00:04:33.200 You people suck, okay? 1.00

00:04:35.300 And now you're going to pay the price. 1.00

00:04:38.840 So this is Bannon's tearing down the state rhetoric.

00:04:42.640 He's been doing this for 10, 15 years now.

00:04:44.500 That's not entirely new.

00:04:46.220 He may see his dream come true.

00:04:47.800 Did he express to you in this interview what he thinks any of these institutions should be replaced with?

00:04:54.240 I mean, for example, if you don't like the FBI because they investigated Trump,

00:04:58.120 the FBI also investigates domestic terrorism.

00:05:01.100 The FBI also investigates international crime.

00:05:03.960 The FBI also investigates gun running.

00:05:06.120 So when he says tear down these institutions, does he just want to build them back up,

00:05:09.680 or does he just think they should be gone because the state and the bureaucracy are too big?

00:05:14.840 Well, I think that whatever Steve Bannon might want to do,

00:05:19.520 I think that what is more likely to happen is that people who are loyal to Trump,

00:05:25.760 unquestionably loyal to Trump, are going to be placed in control of these institutions.

00:05:30.680 We've seen reporting today that Chris Frey, the FBI director, is likely to be forced out,

00:05:35.480 fired as soon as Trump becomes president, perhaps replaced by Kash Patel,

00:05:41.320 who is a frequent guest on Steve Bannon's show.

00:05:45.280 You know, there's similarly at the Justice Department, it's not just Matt Gaetz who's there sort of sailing under the radar

00:05:55.660 as Donald Trump's whole criminal defense team, who, you know, are many of them qualified federal prosecutors,

00:06:05.400 former federal prosecutors.

00:06:06.440 But nonetheless, people who have been working for the past couple of years to make sure that Donald Trump

00:06:12.160 didn't serve any time in prison and was able to get away with it.

00:06:19.120 So really what we're seeing is a new sort of cadre of folks being put into positions of power.

00:06:26.460 Is he more aligned with this second Trump administration than the first?

00:06:30.540 So is he likely to be more powerful now than he was the first time?

00:06:34.920 Is he going to be a voice that's going to be listened to and seen less as a threat,

00:06:39.500 but more as a as a guidepost this time around than he was before?

00:06:44.540 I mean, let's think about who was, you know, in the White House when when Bannon was pushed out,

00:06:50.160 you know, John Kelly, you know, and other sort of people,

00:06:54.400 people who consider themselves to be institutionalists who wanted to kind of cut down on the chaos that,

00:07:00.540 you know, surrounded Bannon and others at all times in the White House during the first six or eight months of the of the first administration.

00:07:09.360 You know, I think it's fairly clear whose side Donald Trump is on or, you know, who it's been resolved,

00:07:16.480 you know, where Donald Trump is going to going to cast his lot.

00:07:20.120 He's going to cast his lot with the with the with the bomb throwers. 0.97

00:07:23.720 And and so in that respect, Steve Bannon is is is somebody who is a voice that Trump listens to.

00:07:31.380 He's a voice that shapes opinion on the right.

00:07:34.540 And so therefore, somebody that is is worth paying attention to.

00:07:37.940 This is the primal scream of a dying regime.

00:07:45.660 Pray for our enemies because we're going to the evil on this people.

00:07:50.900 I got a free shot.

00:07:52.160 All these networks lying about the people, the people had a belly full of it.

00:07:57.140 I know you don't like hearing that.

00:07:58.580 I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it.

00:08:01.180 It's going to happen.

00:08:02.460 And where do people like that go to share the big line?

00:08:05.180 I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.

00:08:12.700 Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?

00:08:16.400 If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.

00:08:22.780 War Room.

00:08:23.600 Here's your host, Stephen K.

00:08:25.660 Bannon.

00:08:30.020 It's Wednesday, 20 November, year of our Lord, 2024.

00:08:32.720 That was MSNBC last night, the readout with the professor sitting in for Joy Ann Reed and, of course, Andrew Rice that did the profile of us over at the War Room show over at New York Magazine.

00:08:46.120 If we can put that photo up.

00:08:48.800 I want everybody, and if Grace and Mo can push this out and Jane push it out to social media, I want everybody to read the piece.

00:08:57.580 Because the guy hung around with us for a couple of days in the lead-up to the show last week.

00:09:03.860 So there's a lot going on.

00:09:06.040 So the battlefield has many fronts.

00:09:11.000 Number one, Senator Tuberville is going to join us at the bottom of the hour to talk about DOD and the senior military, but also the situation with the judges.

00:09:21.800 President Trump has come out.

00:09:22.900 It's a high priority for him now.

00:09:24.360 We told you Elizabeth Warren was going to be all over this.

00:09:27.480 We must stop these Democrat judges.

00:09:30.380 The Senate must go into every possible rearguard action to slow this down.

00:09:36.440 President Trump could have, I don't know, 20, 25, 30 potential slots to start off.

00:09:42.300 The theory of the case here is to seize the institutions.

00:09:45.480 They claim they're the institutionalists.

00:09:47.880 They claim they're the system who are the anti-system.

00:09:50.280 What we're saying about the system, it has to be restructured, revived, restored, renewed.

00:09:56.760 This is the concept of Schumpeter's creative destruction.

00:10:02.340 This is the taproot of capitalism, of a capitalist society.

00:10:06.900 The problem we have now, we ain't a capitalist society.

00:10:09.940 We have an oligarchy, oligarchy on Wall Street, oligarchy in Silicon Valley, kind of a mini oligarchy in Hollywood, the content providers.

00:10:19.180 And they have a political class here that does their bidding, that does their bidding.

00:10:23.280 That is what we have to break.

00:10:25.460 To wit, a great piece in the paper of record, the New York Times today on the front page, broke, dismayed and distrusting of Democrats.

00:10:33.900 I'm going to repeat that, broke, dismayed and distrusting of Democrats from hope to cynicism for minority voters in working class.

00:10:46.020 Two-thirds, and I keep telling you about the, at Danbury Prison where I taught the course with the young African-American right there if you can pone in.

00:10:53.960 One of the lead stories on the front page above the fold.

00:10:58.420 Populism and economic nationalism reaches these folks and touches them, that they're American citizens.

00:11:07.760 And we're putting the interests of American citizens first, America first and her citizens first. 0.76

00:11:13.180 Everything has to come through that, that framing.

00:11:15.780 If we do that, and President Trump has led this effort, and that's why we have to have these investigations, not about Trump personally, not about Steve Bannon personally, or Tucker Carlson, or Peter Navarro went to prison, or even Tina Peters.

00:11:32.360 We have to do it because we have a fiduciary responsibility to make sure this is never done again.

00:11:39.420 That's what this is about.

00:11:40.600 And to take control, which you have to, we have to reassert civilian control over the Pentagon.

00:11:46.340 Look, I was four years at sea and came back as a special assistant to the Chief of Naval Operations in 81.

00:11:52.960 The things that the uniformed services do today, and particularly did in President Trump, was inconceivable back in the 80s when Cap Weinberger came over as Secretary of Defense.

00:12:07.420 That has to all be changed.

00:12:08.840 We're going to have some experts on here to talk about what Pete Hegseth and why they fear Pete so much over the Pentagon.

00:12:18.460 But on this front today, today it's the 20th of November.

00:12:22.260 Yo, folks, 60 days from now at noon, when this show ends at noon, in what, an hour and 47 minutes,

00:12:32.320 Donald John Trump will have his hand on a King James Bible, taking the oath for the second time.

00:12:41.240 We're burning daylight.

00:12:43.040 We're burning daylight on the transition because the theory of the case is the media,

00:12:50.040 and maybe we'll play that, MSNBC went through that, that to flood the zone.

00:12:54.000 You do flood the zone.

00:12:54.820 It's not the Democratic Party.

00:12:56.640 They're fairly hapless, as you can tell from the African-American, Hispanic, working-class folks in the New York Times article.

00:13:03.580 They've taken them for advantage for decades and decades and decades.

00:13:07.720 The opposition here is part of this media complex backed by the money and the power and the muscle of the oligarchs on Wall Street and in Silicon Valley.

00:13:19.740 And you have this kind of puppet political class here.

00:13:23.100 So what you do is you flood the zone.

00:13:26.500 You flood the zone.

00:13:28.420 You so overwhelm them with so many different things that you're working on.

00:13:32.940 This is why these cabinet picks have been so amazing.

00:13:35.460 You overwhelm them.

00:13:37.400 There are two other nodes.

00:13:39.700 Number one, in early January, in about, I don't know, 40 days,

00:13:44.400 you have to line up some of the most important confirmation hearings all simultaneously.

00:13:50.160 All simultaneously, overwhelm the system.

00:13:55.240 And then on the 20th, it's a Monday.

00:13:58.360 It's a day we go to work.

00:14:00.060 And right afternoon, you come in, you come in hard and you come in hot.

00:14:04.940 Boom.

00:14:06.000 Across the board, economically, on the border, on mass deportations,

00:14:11.380 and on the de-wokification of the entire government, but led by the Pentagon.

00:14:20.940 Who's going to do that?

00:14:22.000 Pete Hegseth, who, if we do this correctly,

00:14:25.620 will be confirmed sometime in the first two weeks of January when you flood the zone.

00:14:31.120 Three times to do it.

00:14:32.260 One now, two in early January, three in the 20th.

00:14:36.400 That's the plan.

00:14:37.300 Let's hit it.

00:14:39.120 All gas, no brake.

00:14:40.220 My question is, where are we on the second wave of announcements?

00:14:46.060 Boom.

00:14:46.620 Hit the first wave with a second.

00:14:49.020 Always keep them on their back foot.

00:14:51.440 Always and everywhere.

00:14:52.740 Keep them on their back foot.

00:14:53.780 Short break.

00:14:54.400 Back with an amazing piece in the New York Post next in the world.

00:15:00.180 Big victory on 5 November.

00:15:02.600 Now the work can finally start on the big issues facing the country.

00:15:06.100 One of the biggest is the national debt and the deficits that drive it.

00:15:11.120 Hey, you think the country's broke?

00:15:12.680 The country is broke.

00:16:20.340 Here's your host, Stephen K.

00:16:22.420 Bannon.

00:16:23.560 Just put him in there.

00:16:25.880 Okay, welcome back.

00:16:27.100 We're a little jammed today.

00:16:27.940 Senator Tuberville is going to join us here momentarily.

00:16:30.500 But I'm honored to have Katie and Andrew Cherkasky.

00:16:35.880 They are the authors of Woke Warriors.

00:16:38.640 And an amazing piece.

00:16:39.900 That's the book that came out in April from Post Hill, the great guys over Post Hill.

00:16:43.560 They also have written an incredible piece in the New York Post about, I guess, the de-woke-ification of the Pentagon and how Pete Hegseth is the best guy to do it.

00:16:54.780 Katie, I'll start with you.

00:16:56.660 So, first off, how deep is the problem, really?

00:17:00.860 Is this just, you know, the Fox guys and Bannon and, you know, Dan Bongino just talking smack?

00:17:10.440 Or is there a serious problem at the Pentagon in this political correctness, DEI, all of it, ma'am?

00:17:17.060 Oh, it's absolutely insidious throughout the Department of Defense.

00:17:21.080 So, we have worked a long time with the military.

00:17:24.480 We were military prosecutors and defense counsel.

00:17:27.320 We represent military members now in our law practice.

00:17:30.980 The DEI policies have basically totally infested the entire Department of Defense.

00:17:37.000 There's—I think people would be shocked to learn how much time, money, resources is put into investigating and essentially dealing with these so-called issues that come up because of the DEI programs.

00:17:50.480 We're losing really seasoned and honorable military members because of these trivial infractions that have been prioritized by the current White House and by the Pentagon.

00:18:01.920 So, it is vital, in my opinion, that we completely reverse course.

00:18:09.740 Andrew, is this—is it just some bad actors or is this systemic?

00:18:15.640 And did this start after President Trump left office or has this been going on for a while?

00:18:21.860 And my point is, are the roots of this deep in the Pentagon or is this—can we replace a couple of three bad actors and it'll be solved?

00:18:31.120 No, it's catastrophic and it needs a total reshaping.

00:18:35.040 The Pentagon and the DOD at large have become a social welfare program.

00:18:38.700 And when we talk about woke issues or leftist agendas, we have to look at the military because they have employed virtually every single one of the left agenda items in a particularly broad and successful manner.

00:18:54.860 I mean, we can talk about the trans issues that have hit the front headlines about what's going on with drag shows and transgenderism within the military as kind of the big red siren.

00:19:06.280 But it has—it started really, I think, in the Obama administration.

00:19:10.640 The really first issue that hit and swept the military was the Me Too movement.

00:19:16.760 Before it was even a national Me Too movement, it really eliminated so many of the more masculine-leaning and more masculine ideology-type ideas of the military and started to totally deconstruct what the military is all about.

00:19:33.660 Now you go to a military base and there's Me Too posters everywhere you go, in the hundreds, every time you walk onto a base.

00:19:42.200 But then you get into the money of it and you look at the environmental programs that they have taken on in defense of global warming, spending—having $3 billion packages to curb global warming, where President Biden has said that global warming is the biggest threat to planet Earth, not nuclear warfare, which is obviously the biggest threat that we face.

00:20:09.420 And if we're not defending ourselves and ensuring that we're protecting the world from nuclear war, that's the big problem that we have.

00:20:19.340 So we have to go deep into the roots of the military, the ideology, the education that goes on, and totally reframe what the military is about and go back to a much older mindset of what it means to protect the nation and ensure safety throughout the world,

00:20:37.800 not try to build some sort of social program through the misguided kind of idea that we're trying to protect our nation, but we're doing it in the course of just spending an unbelievable amount of money and resources to do so.

00:20:52.260 So, Katie, you guys make a very compelling case.

00:20:56.760 Pete Hexeth awarded two Bronze Stars.

00:20:59.020 I know Pete personally.

00:21:00.140 He's a great guy and a true warrior and a man's man.

00:21:03.560 But he comes at things with a junior officer's perspective that's been on the battlefield.

00:21:10.900 You make the case that he's the right guy.

00:21:13.120 So how does a junior officer control the biggest industrial complex in mankind's history that's so complicated?

00:21:23.220 And at the same time, to manage that, to increase our war fighting, takes on this cultural rot in the Pentagon.

00:21:30.180 How do you put that on a guy who, as brave as he is, as tough as he is, as charismatic as he is, is still a junior officer, ma'am?

00:21:39.100 Well, I think that big picture here, the military's mission is really quite simple.

00:21:43.360 It's to defend our nation and win its wars.

00:21:46.140 And I know that Pete Hexeth has obviously also written a book about the wokeness in the military and understands that a lot of what we're focusing on is just a huge distraction, not to mention the dollar figures that go into it.

00:21:59.540 And so in terms of streamlining the focus of the military and getting rid of a lot of these programs, a big part of the leadership of the Pentagon really needs to be more focused on how to get rid of a lot of things,

00:22:11.660 not so much managing all of these things that have come up that are totally unnecessary, unwarranted, and are undermining the mission.

00:22:18.880 So I think in terms of the top leadership there, and I know he'll have a lot of wonderful people supporting him in terms of getting a lot of the work done,

00:22:26.840 he understands from a deep philosophical standpoint, from his own experience being in the military and then also just being a supporter for so long from his public persona,

00:22:38.100 I think that he is the right person because he has that deep understanding and understands that it's not just as simple as overturning a DEI policy.

00:22:47.080 It is so deep in the culture of the military.

00:22:49.940 These programs have been essentially now weaponized by the folks that are at the lower levels.

00:22:56.540 They know that they can just simply file complaints against their leadership that leads to full-scale distractions.

00:23:02.500 It just takes us off course from that very streamlined and primary mission of actually defending the nation and winning its war.

00:23:10.400 So somebody that understands that and appreciates how insidious the problem is,

00:23:15.020 I think that they are absolutely the right person to lead the Pentagon through this.

00:23:19.600 Andrew, what is your thing you tell Pete?

00:23:23.880 If you were advising him that one or two things he's got to focus on day one, if he's to get to the systems part of it,

00:23:29.820 if he's to get to start to drive it out of the system, where does Pete Heseth go on day one, according to Katie and Andrew, sir?

00:23:38.100 Well, the DOD instructions, as well as the individual service branches, instructions and regulations that deal with DEI and equal opportunity

00:23:47.800 and the massive distraction that has been caused by all of that, virtually all of that can be withdrawn.

00:23:55.300 All of it really is under either the DOD's authority or under executive order and can be immediately withdrawn.

00:24:03.400 Now, there's a lot of money that's on the line.

00:24:05.180 The National Defense Authorization Act often has Congress conditioning a lot of its money on the execution of these various programs.

00:24:14.080 But those programs can go by the wayside and you can revisit the funding and the money on the tail end of that, dealing with that.

00:24:21.320 I think the next thing is to root out the individuals that are at the top of the DOD that push these leftist agendas so vigorously and so relentlessly.

00:24:33.140 It is unbelievable.

00:24:34.520 I mean, we have dozens of people sitting on commissions and boards that go on for years and years being paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to investigate with incredible depth,

00:24:45.460 things like the racial makeup of court martial panels and the intricacies of exactly what a woman can or can't do in combat. 0.66

00:24:56.260 In that example, they get back reports that say that women are not effective in combat, and instead of actually acting on that information, they ban doing future studies of that sort so that they can find a way to put women in combat.

00:25:11.840 That's one of Pete Hegseth's talking points about how to reshape the military.

00:25:16.740 But getting rid of the leadership that has pushed that in the academies and the institutions as well as through the lower rankings for years and years now, those folks have to be gone.

00:25:26.420 The regulations have to change, and the savings and the money will flow from it as a result, almost instantaneously.

00:25:33.880 Katie, they started MSNBC did a big segment last night on the show, and they led with my calling for General Milley to be recalled to active duty and court-martialed.

00:25:47.880 And MSNBC, The New York Times, Washington Post are all over this show and myself that this is so outrageous even to bring it up.

00:25:54.460 You've been a prosecutor, and you've also now defend people in the UCMJ world.

00:26:02.220 Given the facts that you've seen, is it too outrageous that I've called for Milley to be recalled to active duty and face a military tribunal on a court-martial, ma'am?

00:26:12.560 Well, the reality is that retired military members are still subject to the criminal jurisdiction of the UCMJ.

00:26:19.400 And so it does happen. It's not unprecedented, and people are recalled from retirement to face accountability for misconduct.

00:26:28.220 So certainly that is something that I think should be explored, and I think that the accountability at the highest levels is very important.

00:26:35.540 Now, that aside, I think what Andrew had said about removing people and actually moving forward with progress is the more significant portion of that.

00:26:43.880 But accountability is still something that should absolutely be looked into,

00:26:47.440 and I think that General Milley is probably at the top of that list, along with a lot of others.

00:26:51.980 Secretary Austin himself have pushed these agendas and have really sacrificed our operational readiness.

00:27:00.320 I think that there's really no question when you're putting so much time and money and hours of training into these alternate issues and not on the actual mission itself,

00:27:10.380 how could you possibly claim to be as prepared as if you were not focusing on these distractions for so long?

00:27:17.620 So certainly something that can be explored.

00:27:19.920 It's very viable, legally speaking, and maybe sets an example for future reference for folks that want to push the military so far from its actual mission.

00:27:32.020 Can you guys hang on for one second?

00:27:35.480 I know we've only had you scheduled for a block because I've got Senator Tuberville coming in.

00:27:39.020 I know he's an important part of your book, and you're thinking about how to sort things out over there.

00:27:45.140 We're going to take a short commercial break.

00:27:47.320 We're going to return with the authors of Woke Warriors, and there's a magnificent piece in the New York Post.

00:27:53.100 I want my social media team, the producers, please push it out.

00:27:56.780 Everybody in the audience, please read this today and share it.

00:27:59.640 We want to make sure everybody's up to speed on Pete Hegseth and the problem over at the Pentagon.

00:28:04.380 Senator Tommy Tuberville, Coach Tuberville will be in studio next in the war room.

00:28:19.700 I've been telling you about cyber scammers who try to steal Graceland.

00:28:23.960 The FBI calls this house stealing, and it's a real threat.

00:29:24.300 Here's your host, Stephen K. Bann.

00:29:29.820 Okay, Gates is going to be up on Capitol Hill with Senator Vance.

00:29:33.240 We're going to get to all of this, the fight of the judges.

00:29:35.580 Gates, in a second, Tuberville is going to join us.

00:29:39.060 Senator Tuberville, the coach.

00:29:41.360 Katie, Senator Tuberville is a big part of your writings, the book, all of it.

00:29:46.160 Just tell us before I bring in Senator Tuberville, what has been his role in getting the Pentagon and the military back to warfighting and with no woke ma'am?

00:29:57.180 Well, we do talk a lot about Senator Tuberville in our book.

00:30:01.240 We have a chapter talking about the war of attrition and essentially how conservative politicians are bullied into concessions on some of these issues.

00:30:09.700 And Senator Tuberville really stood his ground blocking military promotions because of the issues with the abortion access in the military.

00:30:17.840 So we really appreciate that he stood up for that because a lot of times people can be essentially bullied into conceding things without understanding the significant impact.

00:30:27.980 Yeah.

00:30:30.120 Andrew, social media, where they get the book, where do people follow more of your writings?

00:30:34.100 We're pushing out this New York Post piece nonstop.

00:30:35.840 But your understanding of the problem, you and Katie and Senator Tuberville and his critical role to get back to warfighting, our audience is all over.

00:30:43.860 So where do folks go today to find out more about you?

00:30:46.640 Well, our book, Woke Warriors, available on Amazon, How the Left is Destroying America's Ability to Fight and Win Its Wars.

00:30:54.740 I encourage everyone to get a copy.

00:30:56.880 It's a quick read, but it goes deep into the weeds on the details of why we say the military has gone fully woke.

00:31:04.720 You can see us on X at Cherkasky Law and Katie at Cherkasky Katie.

00:31:14.520 Thank you.

00:31:15.580 And we're often on Fox News and we're pushing our message out there as much as possible because this administration has such a rare opportunity to reshape the military, but the entire government.

00:31:27.180 And we're so excited about it.

00:31:30.300 Deconstruct the Administrative State.

00:31:31.580 Thank you guys very much.

00:31:32.440 Look forward to having you back on for a more in-detail, in-depth interview.

00:31:36.840 Thank you, guys.

00:31:38.040 Thank you.

00:31:39.100 Senator Tuberville, last time you were heading to Normandy, it was a day of your thing.

00:31:43.240 I haven't had a chance.

00:31:43.980 I took a four-month break.

00:31:45.540 Yeah.

00:31:45.920 Right.

00:31:46.220 Long vacation.

00:31:46.800 Long vacation at Spa.

00:31:48.560 First off, how was Normandy?

00:31:49.840 I know it was going to be a very moving time for you.

00:31:51.920 Tell me about it.

00:31:52.440 It was really good.

00:31:53.400 Again, my dad landed there the first day and drove a tank across Europe.

00:31:57.240 And, you know, it's emotional seeing all those crosses and the lives lost and how well-kept it is.

00:32:04.060 The cemetery.

00:32:04.940 You know, kind of a little disappointing in Macron and Joe Biden.

00:32:11.480 And, you know, they wheeled in.

00:32:12.880 It was kind of chilly.

00:32:14.340 And they wheeled in in wheelchairs 200 of our last veterans of D-Day.

00:32:19.620 And they made them sit there for an hour and a half in the wind and the cold because they were an hour and a half late.

00:32:24.600 And they come in in helicopters and all this stuff.

00:32:26.440 But that being said, you can expect that.

00:32:29.240 But it was a it was a moving experience for me to just look at the cliffs and the things that we had to overcome, you know, in that terrible week where we lost 50,000 of our great Americans.

00:32:40.620 Unbelievable.

00:32:41.640 The 80th anniversary.

00:32:43.640 Let's talk about the work at hand today.

00:32:46.000 You've been a hero.

00:32:47.000 You led you led the fight on the you led the fight with on the military.

00:32:52.480 You're a warrior.

00:32:53.320 You're a fighter.

00:32:54.440 You wanted President Trump's closest allies.

00:32:56.780 There's a firestorm up on Capitol Hill, particularly about the attorney general Gates.

00:33:01.360 You've been at the lead of this and taking some pretty bold steps and statements.

00:33:05.380 He's up there today with J.D.

00:33:07.280 Walker, is Gates going to get confirmed?

00:33:10.040 I would hope.

00:33:10.900 But this is going to be a fight, Stephen.

00:33:12.600 It's just not about Matt Gates.

00:33:14.580 It's about our country.

00:33:16.340 You know, they're going to fight tooth and nail.

00:33:18.100 There'll be more lawsuits coming up on everything.

00:33:20.620 I think the deportation, which is badly needed, with Tom Homan in charge, is going to be – we'll have lawsuits, and they'll push back.

00:33:28.880 They're going to try to hold on for four years.

00:33:31.460 Talk our audience about that.

00:33:32.480 We go through the resistance every day.

00:33:34.640 You see it up there in the judges right now.

00:33:36.760 They're not quitting.

00:33:38.020 They're not here.

00:33:39.380 It's not about unity.

00:33:40.600 They're there to fully stop Donald Trump and hopefully take – their plan is to take the House in two years and impeach him, right?

00:33:46.320 Yeah, and their plan was accelerated because they stole the election from President Trump, and they were able to get four years with a bedridden dementia patient, basically, at the end of the day.

00:33:57.380 I hate to say that, but that's what it was.

00:33:58.620 You're with me.

00:33:58.840 There's no doubt in your mind.

00:33:59.800 Oh, no.

00:34:00.400 No doubt in your mind that 2020 was stolen.

00:34:03.220 Listen, I've been up here four years, and I saw him maybe four or five times in the Capitol, and somebody's got to hold his arm, and he shuffles his feet around.

00:34:09.520 I'm thinking, this guy's making decisions about our country.

00:34:12.660 You know, he's over there birdwatching the last week in the Amazon, and we're shooting long-range missiles into Moscow. 0.72

00:34:18.700 Are you kidding me?

00:34:20.080 I mean, these people should be arrested for what they're doing.

00:34:23.120 You agree that there should be, with total transparency and all that, investigations to see what's happened in the last four years of this criminal conspiracy, and particularly in things even like Ukraine, of what's going on?

00:34:34.720 100%.

00:34:35.160 I mean, it's all about the minerals over there, about the $11 trillion worth of minerals.

00:34:39.160 You know, nobody noticed it yesterday, but Rand Paul and I noticed that Joe Biden forgave $5 billion of the loan that we gave him.

00:34:47.220 Now, this last group, we're going to loan the money, and they're going to pay it back.

00:34:49.660 Does he have the ability to do that?

00:34:51.060 I don't think so.

00:34:52.120 You guys are going to bring that up, I think?

00:34:53.700 Yeah, we're going to bring it to the floor, but he forgave $5 billion of it, and some of the senators around said, oh, we'll make that back into minerals.

00:35:03.020 They actually said that?

00:35:03.880 Yeah.

00:35:04.660 Are you kidding me?

00:35:05.460 I mean, we've got a million people killed over there, Steve, and the war should have never started.

00:35:09.400 I was over there.

00:35:10.020 I told you this right before it started with Zelensky, and the guys, I mean, it'd be like me being president.

00:35:15.420 I had to have no business being president of the United States, and he has no business doing that because he's being controlled over there.

00:35:20.520 A comedian.

00:35:21.460 A comedian.

00:35:22.120 I think people feel a lot more comfortable with you as a president of the United States versus some other alternatives that are out there on the Democratic side than Zelensky was just a comedian, told puppet.

00:35:30.660 Oh, yeah.

00:35:31.180 But we're in trouble still.

00:35:32.720 I mean, I've been elated.

00:35:33.700 President Trump won.

00:35:35.020 But you can see real quickly how the Republican Party's come back at him on his nominees.

00:35:41.800 It should be a no-brainer.

00:35:43.580 Okay, so he took a bullet to the head and four months later won a landslide.

00:35:48.040 Oh, yeah.

00:35:48.600 The man gets to choose the people in his government.

00:35:51.900 Exactly.

00:35:52.360 It would be like being a head coach.

00:35:53.380 I'm not going to take a head coaching job and not have my people around me that's going to know as much or more about the position that they're in to make us better.

00:36:00.420 You've got to bring people in you can trust.

00:36:02.460 The loyalty part got him the first time.

00:36:04.460 You know, people just backstabbed him and did all those things, but you know that as well as anybody.

00:36:08.380 But, you know, we've got a Republican Party now that's about a third MAGA, a third Republican, and a third RINO.

00:36:15.300 And we're all divided.

00:36:17.920 Up in the Senate.

00:36:18.960 Up in the Senate.

00:36:19.460 I mean, we've got to get 51 votes.

00:36:22.080 And, you know, everybody's bragging, hey, we've got 53 votes.

00:36:24.960 Boy, what a great job we did.

00:36:26.040 We blew it.

00:36:26.780 We should have been at 60.

00:36:28.060 We should have won Arizona, Nevada, Wisconsin, and Michigan.

00:36:32.700 And we're up there celebrating.

00:36:34.120 This is the last time we'll have a chance to do this with President Trump on the ballot to get these people elected.

00:36:39.720 To me, we didn't fund the right people.

00:36:41.500 We wasted money in Maryland.

00:36:43.900 I like Larry Hogan.

00:36:44.840 He couldn't win.

00:36:46.100 We're not ever going to win up there.

00:36:47.340 And so we're bragging that we got 53, and we left low-hanging fruit out there.

00:36:54.200 Three or four on the table.

00:36:55.180 We'd have fought for it.

00:36:56.100 We didn't.

00:36:56.660 And we closed our eyes to the ballots after President Trump, and they came in and dumped right at the end.

00:37:03.440 Big time.

00:37:04.360 They're still doing it now.

00:37:05.360 We're going to lose a couple of House seats maybe.

00:37:06.740 Yeah.

00:37:07.080 We're going to have people back on.

00:37:07.960 But it's good we've got control, but do we have control?

00:37:12.220 What's the attitude in the Senate?

00:37:14.060 Are they down for a fight, or are they going to roll on Trump?

00:37:17.160 Oh, right now they say they're down for a fight, but the first fight is getting his team together.

00:37:23.280 And, again, I'm friends with Matt Gaetz.

00:37:26.300 I've known him forever.

00:37:27.400 And, you know, he's smart as a whip.

00:37:29.600 He'll have President Trump's back.

00:37:31.160 He'll go after the DOJ like nobody's ever gone after, but that's what's going to get him.

00:37:35.620 They don't want the truth out on both sides.

00:37:38.500 And so Matt is a guy that, again, he's a fighter, and he's like President Trump.

00:37:45.460 Now, I've told him this.

00:37:46.960 I said, I'm not going to vote on rumor because I know what they did to Clarence Thomas and Brett Kavanaugh.

00:37:51.880 They're going to try to ruin everybody in that group.

00:37:54.020 They're going to have something on them that they're going to push out there.

00:37:56.360 And some of these Republicans are going, oh, my God, we can't vote for that guy.

00:37:59.640 Wait a minute.

00:38:00.040 How about proof?

00:38:01.540 How about innocent to proven guilty?

00:38:04.140 That Merrick Garland, as much as the FBI and the DOJ hate him, they dropped anything going forward because there was not any evidence.

00:38:13.040 Are people talking about that in the Senate, that he's never really been – that they were after him for this and then walked away from it as much as they hate Matt Gaetz?

00:38:20.820 Yeah.

00:38:21.160 Well, he was weaponized coming in because you knew dang well he was mad about not being confirmed as a Supreme Court justice.

00:38:27.960 So everything was, hey, I'm getting back at these folks.

00:38:31.140 And he has, and he's gone after President Trump.

00:38:33.560 And it's a shame, but we got to fight.

00:38:37.460 We have to fight for everything out there, Steve.

00:38:40.040 I heard you talk about the military.

00:38:41.680 I have a couple of buddies come home.

00:38:44.060 They've been heaven knows where.

00:38:45.740 They're war fighters.

00:38:46.920 Okay?

00:38:47.180 They've been on their hands and knees and sleeping in the dirt and all that.

00:38:52.240 And they come back, and the first week that they're back, they have to go to DEI training for a week.

00:38:56.740 Yeah.

00:38:56.940 And instead of coming back and relaxing and they have to go into this training, we have lost our military leadership has absolutely run us over the cliff.

00:39:06.220 And it's all by design.

00:39:08.000 I don't know whether they even know better, to be honest with you.

00:39:10.900 Well, do you agree that we should recall Milley and also look at the Afghan – the senior leadership about the Afghan withdrawal situation?

00:39:19.740 The 13 families don't have justice yet.

00:39:21.820 Do you think that we have to start holding the uniformed military services to account here for what they've done?

00:39:28.400 We get controlled armed services.

00:39:30.260 I'm on that.

00:39:30.800 And we should bring back people that were involved.

00:39:33.400 I know very, very close Frank McKenzie, who is the combatant commander of CENTCOM.

00:39:38.360 He was in charge of all of it.

00:39:40.060 And he even – we've already had him up there.

00:39:42.020 And he said, listen, I told him don't do it.

00:39:44.620 We don't need to do it this way.

00:39:46.820 CENTCOM commander.

00:39:47.720 He's supposed to be in charge.

00:39:48.440 He's the guy in charge of everything over there.

00:39:49.980 He's the combatant commander, right?

00:39:51.320 He said, we don't need to do it this way.

00:39:53.960 He was overridden?

00:39:55.980 Oh, yeah.

00:39:56.600 Oh, yeah.

00:39:57.080 But we had a hearing on that.

00:39:58.880 And it's just –

00:39:59.520 But do you think you need to go deeper than a hearing?

00:40:01.500 You think an investigation where –

00:40:03.220 Yeah, we might.

00:40:03.820 Because the way that – when I was there, the Joint Chiefs of Staff were also the operator.

00:40:07.880 They changed that with the Nunn bill later.

00:40:10.640 The combatant commander is supposed to be the guy directly to the – it's supposed to be the combatant commander.

00:40:15.300 It kind of calls the shots, right?

00:40:17.060 When the combatant commander is overruled, you have to figure out what happened here, correct?

00:40:22.240 Well, it's commander-in-chief.

00:40:23.400 It's the only one that can overrule him.

00:40:24.680 It's not the Secretary of Defense.

00:40:26.280 Right.

00:40:26.600 And it's not Millie.

00:40:27.640 It's not the Army chief.

00:40:28.900 No, because he's over Army, Air Force, Marine.

00:40:31.440 He's over everybody.

00:40:32.600 He is the commander of all forces.

00:40:34.600 Combined commander.

00:40:35.120 Yeah.

00:40:35.300 And, you know, he's –

00:40:37.520 Do you think Afghanistan raises to that level of the withdrawal and the 13 dead?

00:40:42.460 Do you think it raised that level that there should be an investigation?

00:40:45.220 It should be because the problem is it was the organization of all of it and how we did it.

00:40:50.580 Even President Trump said we need to leave.

00:40:52.680 But we don't need to leave all at one time.

00:40:54.860 We don't – we need to leave some people there.

00:40:56.700 We gave up the number one Air Force base in the world, Bagram, that we had put billions of dollars in.

00:41:02.860 Now our closest track to China, what is Doha, you know, somewhere over there.

00:41:10.020 And it's – you got to refuel a couple of times.

00:41:12.120 And I'm going to have Nigel Farage on the 6 o'clock show.

00:41:14.760 The Brits are about to give away Diego Garcia.

00:41:17.100 As a guy that was in the Pacific fleet that went to the Persian Gulf of North Arabia Sea,

00:41:21.560 if you don't have Diego Garcia, if you don't have access to it,

00:41:24.060 they're about to give it to the Chinese Communist Party.

00:41:25.800 Well, I'll give you another point.

00:41:28.200 I'm big friends with the new president of Panama.

00:41:31.240 I've been down there, went to his inauguration, got to know him.

00:41:34.500 He's trying his best to stop them at the Daring Gap from people coming up. 0.96

00:41:38.020 He said they're coming from every country, Africa.

00:41:40.240 They're coming to every continent.

00:41:41.660 And he said it's unbelievable.

00:41:43.440 But this guy needs help at the Panama Canal.

00:41:48.340 Yes.

00:41:48.720 We go – we get in a war with China, okay, and we have to ship stuff. 0.91

00:41:53.500 Got to do it.

00:41:54.040 And it's got through the Panama Canal, and they take it over before it happens, China. 0.99

00:41:58.200 And we can't go through there.

00:41:59.180 We've got to go 9,000 miles around the point.

00:42:01.680 Come on.

00:42:02.440 Would you be open to the United States to assist him in building a wall across the Daring Gap 0.58

00:42:08.180 so they couldn't – so we could actually stop what's coming up from Latin America?

00:42:11.680 A hundred percent.

00:42:12.460 I've been trying – I'm waiting until President Trump slows down because you know how he is.

00:42:16.220 He's going to work 20 hours a day, and he's got to get everything done first.

00:42:18.980 Yes.

00:42:19.120 But I want to get the president, new president of Panama, who is just like Malay, what his name is, from Argentina.

00:42:24.780 I want him to come up and sit down 30 minutes with President Trump.

00:42:27.860 And we have to do something about security of that place because the Panama Canal is so important to all trade.

00:42:35.600 We've got to go to break, but would you be supportive in, let's say, the first 30 or 60 days of President Trump's second term

00:42:41.220 to go to McAllen, Texas, and have President Trump call a summit of those frontline nations in Central America,

00:42:47.340 get everybody down there, start working through the deportation program,

00:42:51.540 what they need to help make their own countries great again, including a wall in Panama, but other things too.

00:42:56.860 Would you support that?

00:42:57.680 And bring that new president from Mexico over there, who's about as far left as they come.

00:43:01.420 But bring them all together and do a summit in McAllen, the capital of the Rio Grande Valley.

00:43:05.500 All of those Central America states.

00:43:06.920 We've got to do it.

00:43:07.620 I mean, there's no plan.

00:43:08.920 Joe Biden has had zero plan about anything.

00:43:11.020 They just thrown mud on the wall and see what would stick and just try to ruin our country as he's gone.

00:43:15.420 Short commercial break.

00:43:16.380 We've got Coach Senator Tuberville, a patriot and hero, in the studio.

00:44:48.900 This is your host, Stephen K. Bannon.

00:44:54.080 Do we know how to, do we know in the imperial capital here, do we know how to win or have we forgotten how to win?

00:45:00.900 Well, first of all, you've got to know what you're fighting for.

00:45:03.460 And we've got so many entities that I think they're fighting for different things.

00:45:07.640 One is survival of their own job.

00:45:09.840 One is maybe a chairmanship.

00:45:12.140 One is to have ride around in one of these black SUVs with somebody driving them.

00:45:17.020 I mean, the whole goal is to save the United States of America.

00:45:22.060 Steve, this is going to be our last chance.

00:45:24.700 There's no doubt in your mind about that.

00:45:26.220 No doubt, because they have ingrained the media.

00:45:30.260 And the deep state so deep that it takes a guy like President Trump, and he's even going to take a lot of backlash from people that go, I don't know whether we need to be that tough.

00:45:39.220 Folks, it is time to fight.

00:45:41.820 This is a war like none whatever.

00:45:45.020 And I've been up here for it.

00:45:45.880 And I'm a football coach.

00:45:47.120 And let me tell you something.

00:45:47.900 I've seen every day up here that we have to fight and we have to beat them back so far that it's going to take them forever to get back on their feet.

00:45:56.480 But the massive victory we had four years in the making on 5 November, because a lot of people are saying they're drinking the champagne, and they should.

00:46:05.940 They've worked the grassroots.

00:46:07.460 But explain to people how that just sets us up for the even bigger battle that we got in front of us.

00:46:13.600 Well, first of all, the Democrats know what they're playing for.

00:46:16.320 You know, they want to change the country into something else.

00:46:18.160 Okay, so that's their game plan.

00:46:21.080 Schumer in the Senate, he's got them all under his wing.

00:46:25.380 They're going to listen to everything he says.

00:46:27.340 They're not going to back off one inch because they won't get one dime of campaign money if they do, or chairmanship.

00:46:34.060 We're just the opposite.

00:46:35.220 I mean, we're going to make everybody feel good.

00:46:37.620 And, you know, if you've been up here for a long time, you get to do whatever you want to do.

00:46:40.960 It's wrong.

00:46:41.600 We've got to have fighters.

00:46:42.860 We've got to have people that's going to fight in every committee that's not going to take no from any of these Democrats.

00:46:48.320 We're in charge.

00:46:49.480 And if we back up, it's like this.

00:46:50.780 Matt Gaetz and Pete Hexit and all these people that are being nominations.

00:46:55.780 Hey, it should be a no-brainer.

00:46:57.460 Prove to me he's a criminal.

00:46:58.980 If you do, I won't vote for him.

00:47:00.200 But until then, he's in.

00:47:02.800 The old analogy I use of football, and I fled the zone.

00:47:06.080 We did that.

00:47:06.580 President Trump has done that to put the media and the Democrats back on their back foot with all these great announcements of disruptors.

00:47:12.560 And people are going to take the system and restructure it.

00:47:15.160 The second time – my theory of the case is to say, hey, in early January, when the House and Senate are back in, you're sworn in for the new Congress,

00:47:23.460 you've got to roll up as a group with these confirmation hearings before the 20th of January.

00:47:27.840 You've got to be ready to go.

00:47:28.740 And then on the 20th, you hit them with a third wave of flood the zone with executive orders and everything the president's going to do.

00:47:34.920 Would you be supportive of that to get the confirmations of at least these front-line big things starting right after you guys are sworn in?

00:47:41.920 Oh, yeah, that'll be done.

00:47:42.960 We've already planned that.

00:47:44.080 You have planned that?

00:47:44.840 Yeah, yeah, that's being planned.

00:47:45.720 So you want to move it quickly?

00:47:47.100 We have to.

00:47:47.700 Now, we've sworn in January 3rd, but I think it's a couple days after that.

00:47:51.840 But we should have the SECDF, the Attorney General, the Secretary of Treasurer.

00:47:57.100 I don't think Tom Holman – he didn't have to go through – because he's a czar.

00:48:00.860 He's one of those czars.

00:48:01.800 Well, it depends if it ends up being undersecretary, but you're right.

00:48:04.500 He may not.

00:48:05.780 But what about AG?

00:48:07.200 You put AG in that?

00:48:08.380 Oh, number one.

00:48:10.060 So you want to go all – you're saying right now, this is news,

00:48:13.800 you guys are planning this on the 5th or 6th, sometime up front, to get all the major ones of President Trump up there.

00:48:19.620 Now, the Democrats did this last time.

00:48:21.240 Yes, exactly.

00:48:21.840 When I got here, I couldn't – I mean, they were rolling.

00:48:24.780 They had the SECDF going and the Attorney General.

00:48:27.700 And, of course, we were – we had a lot of our Republicans that voted for a lot of these people.

00:48:32.360 You know what I mean?

00:48:33.100 Democrats voted for –

00:48:35.080 Well, 2019 voted for Merrick Garland, Republicans.

00:48:37.880 Yeah.

00:48:38.440 How can you hold that vote back from Matt Gaetz?

00:48:39.900 But not one Democrat voted against any nominees.

00:48:42.960 Not one.

00:48:43.360 It was zero.

00:48:43.860 I did a speech on the floor yesterday.

00:48:46.340 Had a big zero there.

00:48:47.660 They all were in.

00:48:48.800 They're in on their game.

00:48:50.260 They know what they want to do.

00:48:51.920 And when you know that, you know how to win.

00:48:54.220 How do you know how to win if you don't know what you're fighting for?

00:48:56.920 We're fighting for our country.

00:48:58.700 And we better wake up and smell the roses.

00:49:00.520 Because if we don't, we're going to lose this country.

00:49:02.260 And it's going to be gone.

00:49:03.080 And we're not going to have the second chance of a Donald Trump.

00:49:05.920 It's not going to happen.

00:49:06.900 Your point right now, if Gaetz is not charged with a crime and Merrick Garland and the FBI hate him had years to do this and dropped it, then –

00:49:14.280 Do you see – did you – Steve, did you look at the qualifications of some of their people they put in that we – some of our people voted for?

00:49:20.260 I mean, it's amazing. 0.97

00:49:21.860 Disgusting. 0.56

00:49:22.220 But that's fine. 0.94

00:49:23.220 Hey, if that's who they want in there, elections have consequences. 1.00

00:49:27.260 Barack Obama, you know, 2008.

00:49:30.140 Give them what they want.

00:49:31.480 You don't have to vote for them, but they've got enough people to get them in.

00:49:34.020 Same thing with us.

00:49:35.360 We know – we better know the consequences of what's getting ready to happen.

00:49:39.620 If we don't, we're going to lose.

00:49:41.380 And we're not going to lose in four years.

00:49:42.620 We're going to lose in two years.

00:49:43.640 It'll be over because they'll win it all back other than the president. 0.90

00:49:46.220 And President Trump will be a lame duck and we'll be just treading water. 0.56

00:49:50.220 Hakeem Jeffers is getting impeached him right away, no doubt. 0.96

00:49:52.940 Oh, 100 percent.

00:49:54.400 For the – number one, your advice to President Trump in this current situation, knowing what's going on in the judges, knowing what's going on in the confirmation, what is your recommendation to President Trump right now?

00:50:04.040 Go by your instincts.

00:50:05.200 Just what you did of running.

00:50:07.420 Go by your instincts.

00:50:08.920 Take no prisoners.

00:50:10.220 I mean, this is not an elementary school game here.

00:50:13.980 This is a war against good versus evil about the deep state, and it is here.

00:50:19.700 And Steve, it is real deep.

00:50:21.380 And he has got to come in and throw a stink bomb in every one of these agencies, and we've got to get these people out of here, number one, that don't go to work, that have two or three other jobs making money off the federal government.

00:50:32.520 We've got to put people in positions that can make good decisions for our country and get this debt down because the debt is one of the biggest things going.

00:50:39.240 $36 trillion?

00:50:40.300 Come on.

00:50:40.620 And we hit the debt center out of the box.

00:50:42.440 Two last things.

00:50:44.220 Number one, you came here very open-minded, coming out of a career of coaching and teaching young men and developing young men to come here.

00:50:50.580 You are convinced that there is a deep state.

00:50:53.300 That's not a conspiracy theory.

00:50:54.960 Yeah, it's a deep state of a lot of people.

00:50:57.680 And it's not party-affiliated.

00:51:00.420 It's people that want to come up here and stay forever, then vote the right way to try to keep that deep state there.

00:51:05.640 Now, again, there's a lot of good people here, but I think you can come up here and you can surely get swayed in what you're doing.

00:51:13.000 Money in power.

00:51:13.420 Exactly.

00:51:14.560 This audience, what do you recommend?

00:51:16.260 These are your biggest supporters, President Trump.

00:51:18.500 We're the cadre, the tip of the spear.

00:51:20.100 What do you recommend this audience do?

00:51:21.200 The best way we can help President Trump is to call your senator.

00:51:25.420 I don't care if it's me.

00:51:26.880 You call, you email.

00:51:28.600 I want this guy confirmed.

00:51:30.560 Unless there's something out there that we don't know, make sure you vote for him.

00:51:34.520 I represent Alabama, and President Trump's 70% MAGA in Alabama.

00:51:39.120 I vote against one of these people. 0.72

00:51:40.420 They ought to run my butt out of here because that is what you're supposed to do. 1.00

00:51:44.200 You're not supposed to vote for yourself. 0.95

00:51:45.920 I'm not a rocket scientist.

00:51:46.980 I don't know what all is going out there, but I do want to go by the heart and feel of the people of Alabama, and everybody should do that.

00:51:53.800 It just amazes me, some of these people up here, well, I don't know about this.

00:51:57.280 I don't know about that.

00:51:58.300 Wait a minute.

00:51:58.860 What does the people in your state say?

00:52:00.680 Oh, by the way, they just 65% voted for Donald Trump, okay?

00:52:04.900 And they want him to run this show, not you.

00:52:08.420 You just get up there and follow his lead and do what you can do to help him in our country.

00:52:13.820 But, again, you've got a lot of people up here that think they're rocket scientists, and they know better.

00:52:19.240 And I guess that's ingrained in them, but not me.

00:52:22.420 I want our country to be what you and I had a chance to grow up in back in the 70s and 80s and 90s and not go back to this trash of social justice, identity politics, just all this nonsense.

00:52:36.680 Social media, where do people get you and follow you?

00:52:39.360 Tuberville for Senate.

00:52:40.500 Tuberville for Senate.

00:52:41.540 You're a patriot and a hero to a lot of people.

00:52:42.780 Thank you, Steve.

00:52:43.580 Fight.

00:52:44.400 Let's fight.

00:52:45.100 Fight, fight, fight.

00:52:45.960 I want to warn you of a huge change that could be coming to our money and our bank accounts.

00:52:54.440 First, think back to 9-11, shortly after the government pushed through the Patriot Act.

00:52:58.940 This gave the government power to spy on innocent Americans by monitoring our phone and email and tracking our movement across the Internet.

00:53:06.440 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.

00:53:20.500 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.

00:53:27.900 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.

00:53:38.920 I can't say for sure if this will happen, but it's an interesting and dire warning.

00:53:44.460 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.

00:53:56.780 Watch Jim's warning video now, before it's censored like I've been in the past.

00:54:02.540 Go to RickardsWarRoom.com.

00:54:04.560 That's RickardsWarRoom.com now to see the video.

00:54:08.400 We'll include things like preservatives, artificial ingredients, and other additives that really aren't benefiting your health.

00:54:15.400 So that's why we created Sacred Human, really trying to fill this gap of quality supplements.

00:54:20.460 And of course, the beef liver being our flagship products.

00:54:23.080 For those who don't know, beef liver is loaded with highly bioavailable ingredients such as vitamin A, B12, zinc, CoQ10, etc.

00:54:33.200 And 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.

00:54:45.120 So 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.
