Bannon's War Room - Episode 4259： Trump Signs Fresh Round Of EO's

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

00:00:06.000 Pray for our enemies,

00:00:08.000 because we're going medieval on these people.

00:00:11.000 Here's one time I got a free shot at all these networks lying about the people.

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

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

00:00:19.000 I know you've tried to do everything in the world to stop that,

00:00:21.000 but you're not going to stop it. It's going to happen.

00:00:23.000 And where do people like that go to share the big lie?

00:00:26.000 MAGA media.

00:00:28.000 I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.

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

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

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

00:00:51.000 Okay, Monday, 10 February, Year of the Lord, 2025.

00:00:53.000 We had a different show, a schedule.

00:00:55.000 We're going to get to that in a moment.

00:00:56.000 We've got breaking news from the White House.

00:00:58.000 We go to Real America's Voice, White House correspondent, Brian Glenn.

00:01:02.000 Brian, a huge day.

00:01:04.000 Days of thunder continue.

00:01:06.000 Executive order is about to start rolling out.

00:01:08.000 What do you got for us?

00:01:10.000 Yeah.

00:01:11.000 Good afternoon, Steve.

00:01:12.000 We're just outside the briefing room.

00:01:14.000 Austin, if you just want to turn, we'll show our viewers that maybe have not got a chance to see this.

00:01:18.000 This is the briefing room.

00:01:19.000 Those are the doors that goes inside.

00:01:21.000 That's where you see Carolyn Leavitt. 0.86

00:01:22.000 Yes, we see President Trump often hold their daily press briefings.

00:01:26.000 But we're going to go into a different room here at the bottom of the hour as President Trump is scheduled to sign a few executive orders into place.

00:01:36.000 One being tariffs.

00:01:37.000 Now, Steve, you and I both know on the campaign trail, tariffs was a hot topic.

00:01:42.000 It's one of his favorite T words.

00:01:44.000 And he's going to hit that today in executive order, 25%, kind of a blanket tariff on aluminum and steel coming into this country.

00:01:53.000 And then the other one, Steve, well, not so controversial topic.

00:01:57.000 But whether or not you like paper or plastic straws, well, President Trump is going to say no more paper straws bought within the federal government.

00:02:06.000 And they are one of the biggest consumers as far as buyers of these paper straws, Steve.

00:02:12.000 Brian, I don't know if you can see this.

00:02:16.000 You probably can see the camera.

00:02:17.000 The whole top of the Financial Times of London today, U.S. and China set for trade war as Beijing launches retaliatory tariffs.

00:02:28.000 This is about the situation with China today.

00:02:31.000 These tariffs are specifically – these are the first targeted tariffs he's done, 25% on steel and aluminum imports, particularly they've got Canada, Mexico, China.

00:02:41.000 People are going to be hit for this.

00:02:43.000 CNBC that's no fan of tariffs have said this is good for America and it's good for American workers.

00:02:49.000 Your thoughts, sir?

00:02:51.000 It is.

00:02:52.000 I was just reading an article that we lost about 5,000 steel workers in this country just over the last couple of years.

00:03:00.000 And so hopefully with this change, Steve, we can bring manufacturing back to this country and more jobs.

00:03:07.000 You know, on the campaign trail we were in Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, a lot of steel country, a lot of manufacturing going on.

00:03:15.000 That's what they wanted.

00:03:16.000 So President Trump just views these executive orders as help protecting American jobs and bringing some of this stuff back to here.

00:03:25.000 He also calls it a national security threat to allow a lot of these countries to dominate and have our dependency on steel and aluminum.

00:03:35.000 But this is certainly – hey, it's been a conveyor belt of executive orders over the last, what, 14, 15 days.

00:03:41.000 And it seems like every day, Steve, it's just something else happening in this White House behind me.

00:03:48.000 Let's talk about that for a second.

00:03:50.000 Today an onslaught of particularly federal – at the federal level.

00:03:54.000 It's pretty obvious, Brian, that the Democratic Party really doesn't have any muscle memory to really combat President Trump.

00:04:03.000 The media is a little bit shattered, the mainstream media.

00:04:05.000 I'm sure you see that every day in the skulking around in the White House.

00:04:09.000 What they've done, they've gone to the courts.

00:04:11.000 They haven't yet really gone to the state courts.

00:04:13.000 Letitia James looms large over all of this.

00:04:18.000 White House's hack federal judge, I think it was O'Connell up in Rhode Island, told President Trump he had to give the – he could not hold no money back for these different operations.

00:04:29.000 What are you hearing so far of the White House people about how serious are they taking this onslaught of the federal judiciary against the really – the deconstruction of the administrative state, whether it's done by the Doge team, Elon Musk, or whether he's got Scott Besson or Russell Vogt or Stephen Miller doing it, sir?

00:04:47.000 I think we have all three of those individuals you just mentioned.

00:04:50.000 I know J.D. Vance, Vice President Vance, spoke on this earlier today about this and kind of weighed in and says, look, we shouldn't have some of these corrupt judges trying to run the White House behind me in that executive branch.

00:05:04.000 It doesn't work that way.

00:05:05.000 It doesn't work that way.

00:05:06.000 I think you're going to see – of course, Doge kicks off – the first subcommittee hearing, I should say, kicks off on Wednesday, and that's going to target Medicaid.

00:05:14.000 But, hey, they need to look into some of these other things as well and see if we can – we can't get caught up in this nonsense like we did, all these legal battles as President Trump was battling the last four years on the campaign trail.

00:05:29.000 This looks like the Democrats only have one page in their playbook, and that is just tie him up in court and not allow him to do the things that he's doing.

00:05:36.820 But we'll see how it plays out.

00:05:40.560 It's going to be the courts, folks.

00:05:42.520 Brian, you're going to come back to us when they actually – we're going to be able to see the signing of these.

00:05:46.480 Particularly, we don't want to miss the historic tariffs on steel and aluminum.

00:05:50.340 And guess what?

00:05:50.980 It's pretty historic for some people to go back to the plastic straw, so we want to see that one too.

00:05:56.500 You'll alert us, and we'll catch up with you a little later.

00:06:00.460 Sounds steep.

00:06:01.220 Sounds great.

00:06:01.980 I appreciate it.

00:06:02.540 Brian, we probably got as many guys watching for the straws as the tariffs.

00:06:09.200 You know, we got half a tariff crowd and half a straw crowd. 0.99

00:06:11.300 Thank you, brother.

00:06:12.680 Brian Glenn at the White House today all over.

00:06:15.880 So Matt Schlapp joins us.

00:06:17.160 Matt, put in perspective what's going on.

00:06:20.160 We got like a multi-front attack going on in the administrative and deep state.

00:06:24.060 You got Doge.

00:06:25.320 You got the sledgehammer of Doge hitting you on audits and talking about cuts.

00:06:32.380 You've got Russ Vogt is shutting down the Consumer Bureau.

00:06:37.940 They already shut down USDA.

00:06:39.760 They said now they're ordering guys back to the office.

00:06:42.180 They don't show up.

00:06:42.620 You're going to fire.

00:06:43.200 Every vertical you've got, you've either got Miller, Besant, Vogt, Elon, the Doge team.

00:06:50.960 Put it in perspective for people, this war against the administrative state and the deep state.

00:06:55.020 Yeah, so the Democrats don't follow any rules.

00:06:58.500 They use their executive power writ broadly.

00:07:02.520 And they change the world.

00:07:03.620 They change the government.

00:07:04.440 They change everything.

00:07:05.740 Republicans come in and we color inside the lines.

00:07:08.940 And we're very, you know, careful listening to the lawyers.

00:07:12.060 And it's asymmetrical.

00:07:13.760 They expand government greatly.

00:07:15.740 They use their power.

00:07:16.820 They punish their enemies.

00:07:17.800 And we do very little of that.

00:07:19.740 So for people like me that have served in administrations in the past that know the old rules, it's always a little jarring to see the way Trump operates and the way people around Trump is operating.

00:07:30.820 In the beginning, sometimes I even flinch, like, I don't think you can do that.

00:07:34.460 And then over the course of days or weeks, you realize that he's doing what Democrats do.

00:07:40.120 He's saying, I'm the president of the United States.

00:07:42.640 I'm going to throw the ball deep.

00:07:45.080 And I'm going to make you stop me.

00:07:47.240 And you're right.

00:07:48.520 It's all going to go to the courts at the end of the day.

00:07:50.600 A lot of this is going to go to the Supreme Court.

00:07:53.140 You know, can the president decide to impound money that's been appropriated by Congress?

00:07:58.260 I mean, you've got to love these Republicans on the Hill.

00:08:01.620 They're all, like, so worried about – well, first of all, they're applauding Doge and what Elon Musk is doing with all this waste, fraud, abuse.

00:08:08.060 But where were they the last couple of decades overlooking all the spending?

00:08:11.500 I mean, they're the ones signing all these budget bills, and they haven't done their job of scrutinizing all the spending.

00:08:17.100 So God bless Donald Trump.

00:08:18.840 He's the one exposing it now.

00:08:22.900 Let's talk about that.

00:08:24.040 You've got – for years when we ran the deal, you had Paul Ryan, and you always had the Andy Bigses and the Rand Pauls.

00:08:34.860 You always had people like that, Thomas Massey, right, Mark Meadows back in the old days, Dave Bratt, people that were always – House Freedom Caucus and others, Steve King's, people that were hardcore limited government conservatives that were always voting against these bills.

00:08:51.320 And we used to sit up and watch all night on War Room, these appropriations subcommittee votes where they were trying to get into USAID, and they were outing much of the stuff we see today.

00:09:03.720 They couldn't even win in committee.

00:09:05.980 More than 50 percent voted of the Republicans or the Republicans in charge.

00:09:10.220 Why did that take place?

00:09:11.660 I mean, here you're saying it's a fresh day, but this stuff's been going on for decades.

00:09:16.500 The public should have known this years ago, sir.

00:09:18.340 There's two pieces – well, there's actually three pieces.

00:09:20.880 There's the investigations that are supposed to happen in judiciary and oversight.

00:09:24.400 But you're supposed to authorize government, Steve.

00:09:26.320 You don't just give it money once a year.

00:09:28.400 You authorize it used to be for five years at a time, and that allows you to really kind of do the overhaul of the engine, get rid of the stuff that's not working.

00:09:36.160 As Mercy and I were talking the other day, I mean, government just grows, and all these bureaucrats just expect more money, and nobody's asking the kinds of questions about why is the government doing this or that.

00:09:48.840 And it's become an absurd process where you have these emergencies like COVID or national disasters, and they up the spending, and it never goes back down again after the emergency.

00:10:00.040 It's never kind of like – it just becomes expected, and the Republicans have laid over most of them, not the guys you mentioned, on this idea that they ought to authorize every part of government.

00:10:13.100 And if it isn't authorized, it's a rogue outfit.

00:10:16.680 And that's what Trump is saying, which is, wait a minute.

00:10:19.600 What kind of legal standing does an agency have if they haven't been authorized for 20 years?

00:10:25.260 Yes, they're getting these annual appropriations, but that's not enough.

00:10:28.260 That's not at all what the constitutional framework imagined.

00:10:32.360 And so, you know, if the court actually, you know, looks at the law, I think Trump and Russ Vogt and Elon Musk, they have a fair case to make that they can deconstruct what Congress never seemed to have the gumption to authorize.

00:10:51.520 Matt, this is such a brilliant point.

00:10:53.820 So, folks, you know, you've got the appropriations process, and that's what we talk about March 14th.

00:10:57.780 You've got this process.

00:10:58.740 It's statutory.

00:10:59.760 It's got to be done.

00:11:00.480 This is the way the system works.

00:11:01.660 And if you're going to break that part of the system, you've actually got to change the law.

00:11:05.340 The authorization is something they never want to talk about.

00:11:08.260 Never talk.

00:11:08.640 These departments, when they're like education, but they have an ongoing, like every five years for justice, every five years for FBI, 10 years for FBI.

00:11:16.800 They've skipped them for 10, 20, 30, 40 years.

00:11:20.680 That's right.

00:11:21.000 And Trump's calling them out.

00:11:22.520 They're really not going to have much of a legal basis to stand on, are they?

00:11:25.740 Remember, they got the budget bill they pass a couple times a year. 0.99

00:11:28.880 And they got one stupid big glob that they get done. 0.98

00:11:31.900 And they pass a defense bill once a year, usually. 0.99

00:11:35.340 But the rest of government just is kind of going status quo with colas and raises every year.

00:11:43.880 No one's looking under the hood.

00:11:45.640 And remember, the appropriations process is supposed to be for discretionary, not all the stuff that's on autopilot.

00:11:51.740 That's what they call the entitlements and such.

00:11:54.860 I mean, we're not looking at any of that at all.

00:11:57.560 That's becoming the biggest part of the budget, the overwhelmingly biggest part of the budget.

00:12:02.000 And so my favorite thing about what Doge is doing, and I was dubious because I was like, what the hell is this thing?

00:12:08.000 It's kind of made up out of whole cloth.

00:12:09.760 But look what it's doing, if nothing else, with transparency.

00:12:14.020 And it's shaming everyone who had been voting for all of this ridiculous spending.

00:12:18.980 And I think the Democrats are on their heels with Doge, which is why they're going so hard after Musk.

00:12:24.800 What's so wrong about you knowing what your government's doing?

00:12:29.000 And when they're doing absurd things, you know, it's amazing how next thing you know, no one's standing up to support it.

00:12:35.900 And I think this is going to be a big part of the next year with Donald Trump.

00:12:40.640 He is mocking the whole governmental system, which is completely broken.

00:12:45.840 And I think he's making the Republicans realize they started off being dubious in some of his cabinet picks.

00:12:51.580 And, Steve, you told me in a text, like, immediately, Trump gets every one of his cabinet picks because he took a bullet for us and got off that canvas and stood up and fought.

00:13:00.340 And you had the right approach.

00:13:01.920 And some Republicans were going to do their little dancing thing.

00:13:04.660 And I think they're all coming around.

00:13:06.600 I think all these people will get confirmed.

00:13:09.540 And I think Trump is actually getting stronger as time goes on, not because he's picking the right fights.

00:13:15.200 I think because he's picking every fight.

00:13:18.380 And that's exactly what we want.

00:13:19.700 We've been we've been on our back feet forever.

00:13:23.700 Pennies.

00:13:24.260 We're talking about pennies.

00:13:25.240 I mean, it's everything.

00:13:28.520 I'm going to hold you through the break real quickly.

00:13:30.280 The federal judge, Whitehurst's hacked federal judge up in Rhode Island, said that President Trump had to keep funding these things.

00:13:36.580 Should he comply with that order or say, let's throw down now?

00:13:40.060 Let's just throw down for it.

00:13:41.260 Should he comply and just fight an appellate at the Supreme Court or should he have his guys and they're going to get contempt charges?

00:13:47.520 Should he fight it, sir?

00:13:49.760 Well, I think he's got to fight all of this.

00:13:51.920 And I think, you know, I'm going to listen to Pam Bondi in this situation.

00:13:56.680 I mean, you do want to choose your battles when it comes to the legal front.

00:14:01.780 But to me, as long as there's an appeal process going on, then the constitutional fight should be able to continue until we get resolution in the courts.

00:14:11.860 Matt Schlapp saying, President Trump's being very selective, taking on all fights.

00:14:19.500 Take them all on, baby.

00:14:20.820 Let's hit it.

00:14:23.320 Days of Thunder.

00:14:24.400 Okay.

00:14:25.520 CPAC is launching next week, really at the beginning of Days of Thunder.

00:14:29.440 We're going to have Matt give us some details.

00:14:31.160 Short commercial break.

00:14:32.100 Birch gold.

00:14:33.400 What did gold get to?

00:14:34.240 Another all-time high today or close to it?

00:14:36.840 Almost 3,000?

00:14:38.700 Looking at my guys looking at his account right now.

00:14:41.220 Okay.

00:14:41.980 You can wake up any time.

00:14:43.360 Gold prices.

00:14:44.240 There you go.

00:14:45.060 No, don't worry about it.

00:14:46.400 Birch gold.

00:14:47.740 Go talk to Philip Patrick and the team.

00:14:49.700 Ask them the price of gold.

00:14:50.800 And more importantly, ask them why you need it as a hedge.

00:14:54.660 A store of value for your financial life.

00:14:56.860 Short break.

00:14:59.640 Have you seen the news from economists forecasting a depression?

00:15:03.800 I'm not talking recession.

00:15:06.080 I mean depression by the year 2030.

00:15:08.460 We're in a perfect storm as Social Security and Medicare hit a breaking point with the largest generation hitting retirement. 0.62

00:15:16.780 A smaller workforce means a smaller tax base.

00:15:20.840 Pair that with our growing national debt and rising cost of living, and you got a problem, and I mean a big problem.

00:15:27.240 So what are you going to do now to protect your family for the future?

00:15:31.080 Gold is a safe haven in hard economic times, and birch gold makes it easy to diversify a portion of your savings into physical gold.

00:16:28.700 Remember, the ultimate guide for investing in gold in the Trump era.

00:16:34.040 Forward by Don Jr.

00:16:37.140 Birch gold.

00:16:37.960 Do it today.

00:16:38.520 Trump first did when he came into office that I think, you know, underscores this problem with media coverage is he pardoned the January 6th rioters, including the ones who beat cops violently.

00:16:51.440 And this is something that people in his own administration said he would never do because they didn't think he would possibly do that.

00:16:57.400 It's also something that I think in the first Trump term would have had serious consequences for his administration.

00:17:04.840 There would have been a big media backlash.

00:17:06.700 You know, I can imagine Republicans on the Hill coming out to condemn it.

00:17:09.540 His approval ratings would have plummeted.

00:17:13.240 Now, there doesn't seem to be any consequences.

00:17:16.300 And that might be the fact due to the fact that this has just been such a crazy couple of weeks that it's hard for everyone to keep up.

00:17:21.440 Do you see there being any political consequences for Trump in America anymore in the second term?

00:17:27.700 It's a good question.

00:17:28.900 Part of it's the flood the zone thing you mentioned, right?

00:17:31.840 He's coming at us with so many things all at once.

00:17:34.540 It's hard for anybody, whether it be, you know, political opposition or the media or the, you know, the political environment to focus on any single decision that he's made and say, well, wait a second.

00:17:45.780 Let's think about that.

00:17:46.660 Let's scrutinize that.

00:17:47.560 Let's decide whether or not we think there's merit to it or it's a problem.

00:17:51.960 Because by the time he finished parting the January 6th guys, he was already off to the races in, you know, withholding up to $3 trillion worth of federal grants.

00:18:03.300 And he was dismantling the entire foreign aid structure of the United States government.

00:18:08.060 And he was, you know, talking about literally taking over other countries.

00:18:12.700 I mean, like, so where do you say, okay, well, I'm not going to cover him trying to take over the Panama Canal because I want to focus more on the January 6th partners.

00:18:20.820 Okay, that's, you know, a choice, but the truth is, it's also kind of important that he's saber rattling with our ally in Central America.

00:18:28.180 And the other thing that's different, of course, is I think the political environment in Washington is different.

00:18:33.580 There's no John McCain anymore.

00:18:35.320 There's not even a Mitt Romney anymore.

00:18:37.180 There was no Republican opposition to him anymore, which there was at the beginning of his first term.

00:18:42.500 At the beginning of the first term, you had Bob Corker, Jeff Flake, even Mitch McConnell had from time to time said, whoa, wait a second, buddy, you're going too far.

00:18:48.580 None of them are doing that anymore.

00:18:50.900 Actually, Mitch McConnell is a little bit more oppositional now.

00:18:53.340 He's no longer the leader.

00:18:54.500 But there's really very little Republican opposition.

00:18:57.320 And without Republican opposition, since they control the Congress, he gets a pretty free ride and people dismiss the Democrats who don't have any power anyway.

00:19:06.020 So the real tension is going to be in the courts.

00:19:08.100 We'll see what they do with some of these decisions he's trying to make.

00:19:10.460 But you're right.

00:19:11.020 Everything does feel like it's ephemeral.

00:19:13.220 Even the most controversial, most outrageous, arguably, things he decides to do pass within 24 hours because there's something else happening.

00:19:23.280 Matt Schlapp, that's Peter Baker.

00:19:26.760 He's considered, you know, by the left, the kind of even handed wise man of Washington, the lead White House correspondent and married to what Susan Glasser at the New Yorker.

00:19:37.900 I think she is now formerly Politico, kind of the rural couple of media.

00:19:43.740 I think Trump broke her.

00:19:45.040 I think they've lost their minds.

00:19:46.620 But here's the thing.

00:19:47.420 I'm going to get a little bit pissed off here.

00:19:50.040 He got a free ride. 0.92

00:19:52.760 Who the hell thinks Donald Trump got a free ride? 0.96

00:19:56.300 They tried to shoot him. 0.95

00:19:57.840 They tried to take all his money.

00:19:59.480 They tried to put him in prison.

00:20:01.920 And little Peter Baker is sitting up there talking about how the man gets a free ride.

00:20:08.140 I mean, can you just even imagine anybody listening to this dweeb and saying, wow, that's so smart, smart analysis, Peter.

00:20:18.060 So, 300 years in prison, just from the Jack Smith referral to 300 years in prison, I think from the J-6, right? 0.98

00:20:27.920 Everything.

00:20:28.460 Wanted him to die in a federal prison.

00:20:30.140 Matt, you're going to be at the beginning days of the days of thunder.

00:20:34.400 Everybody we know in the Warren Posse, the Schlapps have given an incredible deal.

00:20:38.980 If you go to cpac.org slash war room, 76 bucks.

00:20:45.060 You can't do better.

00:20:45.820 We're going to do that.

00:20:46.540 We're going to do the – if you show a ticket, you get to come to the Force Multiplier.

00:20:49.960 We're going to do the day before.

00:20:51.040 We're throwing a bunch of parties all over the place to celebrate everybody's coming.

00:20:56.540 Matt, talk to our folks about it and why it's so important kind of at the – when we're getting the muzzle philosophy to take on the left and the administrative and deep state, why it's so important to attend now more than ever.

00:21:06.940 Well, first of all, I want to tell you, you know, it's four days, so it's a crash course in what's going on in your country.

00:21:12.680 And I think the Posse has been a great addition.

00:21:16.440 It's been a fantastic addition.

00:21:17.900 We're going to – Mercy and I are going to thank you for inviting us to speak at your Force Multiplier event, which has now become part of the tradition.

00:21:25.100 We're going to have our international summit on Wednesday as well.

00:21:28.280 We have countries from all over the world, ambassadors, foreign ministers, political activists sitting around a table and really shaming the globalists on all the ways in which they're radicalizing and ruining the globe.

00:21:43.740 And, you know, this international peace is a big part of CPAC, strangely enough, even though it's all about America.

00:21:49.240 Because everybody's rooting for America around the globe because without America, they're toast and they know they're toast.

00:21:55.600 And I'm just – I'm proud of the people that we're going to have there.

00:21:59.520 You know, we're going to have all the cabinet secretaries who have been confirmed.

00:22:03.240 We're going to have the White House senior staff.

00:22:06.220 We're going to have, you know, Ted Cruz doing his podcast with Ben Ferguson, talking to one of those cabinet secretaries.

00:22:12.240 We have the largest owner of Bitcoin in the world is going to be there.

00:22:17.900 And I know some people love Bitcoin and other people think this is a problem.

00:22:21.860 But we air all grievances at CPAC, too, by the way.

00:22:25.100 All grievances are allowed.

00:22:26.420 Let's talk about it and get it on the stage.

00:22:28.480 I really want the Elon Musk-Steve Bannon debate, but I haven't been able to pull that together yet.

00:22:33.360 But I think that could be one for the ages.

00:22:35.840 Steve, what do you think?

00:22:37.840 I'm all in, 1,000%.

00:22:39.840 You pull it off, I'm good.

00:22:41.340 Let's roll.

00:22:42.740 Let's roll.

00:22:43.920 But your point.

00:22:45.640 There's nothing to debate.

00:22:47.040 I think Elon would admit he's wrong and I'm right, but that's okay on everything with visas. 0.75

00:22:51.780 I give my, listen, I tip my hat to him on Doge.

00:22:55.200 I think it's an armor-piercing shell.

00:22:57.820 What it's doing is great.

00:22:59.020 You've got to make sure the data's cool.

00:23:00.760 But I'm the one saying, Elon, you've got to get across the river.

00:23:03.040 If we're to have any cuts, Matt, you know, you've struggled for this for 15 years.

00:23:07.540 If we're to have any cuts, it's going to have to be someone like Elon that goes to the Pentagon

00:23:11.720 and says, these are the programs we can take out.

00:23:13.680 And once you get the Pentagon sorted, you can get the social programs.

00:23:16.900 So, no, I think, by the way, I think it would be amazing, or if not, to get a Doge update

00:23:20.700 from some of his guys.

00:23:21.740 I think it would be incredible.

00:23:22.640 That would be a global media event.

00:23:23.980 They would all melt down if Doge took the stage, brother.

00:23:27.840 Well, hopefully that'll happen, and I agree with you completely.

00:23:31.120 And I just think for people that have been reading white papers for decades, I would say,

00:23:37.060 you know, let them collect a little bit of dust.

00:23:39.320 Understand that we are in a cultural war.

00:23:42.500 You have different ways of saying it, Steve.

00:23:44.940 But the, you know, we have to rethink all of our tactics.

00:23:48.500 I'm not saying we need to break our moral truths, but we have to rethink our tactics.

00:23:52.320 I mean, our tactics have stunk for a long time, and what Donald Trump is doing is he's

00:23:59.020 got some clubs in that golf bag that we haven't really seen before or not in a long time, and

00:24:04.540 it's exactly what we need.

00:24:07.240 Like a jackhammer.

00:24:08.380 I want to make sure, I just want to reiterate this, and this is just the reality of Washington,

00:24:13.340 current Washington.

00:24:14.300 There's so many people that have been on this show, contributors to the show, people that

00:24:18.340 have either gone in the White House and or are, have been designated for confirmed jobs

00:24:23.240 that can't really, they're not at liberty to come and speak at this time, right?

00:24:26.380 I know probably a half a dozen who would normally be at CPAC who speak at, one of the reasons

00:24:31.580 they're cabinet nominated or in the White House is because they've been at CPAC and people know

00:24:37.000 their views.

00:24:37.640 But there are quite a significant amount of people, either at the cabinet level right below

00:24:41.960 or some people we know in the White House, just for various restrictions.

00:24:45.860 You just can't come and, you can't be on main stage of CPAC anymore, correct?

00:24:49.500 Well, if you're not confirmed yet, or if you haven't got your sea legs in your new job,

00:24:54.260 then, you know, and it's just kind of good for us, Steve, because, you know, like I said,

00:24:58.680 three and a half days, but believe it or not, schedule's full.

00:25:02.940 You know, it is a tough thing to schedule, especially when you have these people coming

00:25:08.120 over from really important countries that we're allied with.

00:25:11.340 You know, the foreigners all expect to give that 30-minute speech, Steve, and it's really 1.00

00:25:14.940 interesting to tell a prime minister, you've got nine minutes, sir.

00:25:17.780 It doesn't go over well, but we win that argument every time.

00:25:23.100 Now, I know you can't announce until you announce, but I take it the president's been very supportive.

00:25:28.380 In fact, the comeback trail for the president from Mar-a-Lago, the first in the historic speech,

00:25:33.360 was in Orlando with CPAC.

00:25:35.100 That's right.

00:25:35.620 Right?

00:25:36.020 I think it was 30 or 45 days.

00:25:38.360 That was historic.

00:25:39.060 I take it the president's never missed the CPAC when you were there, so we're going to get the president?

00:25:44.320 Yeah, almost 47 days from J6.

00:25:46.820 He's standing on our stage in Orlando as, unfortunately, a former president.

00:25:52.720 And, yes, I'm not allowed to announce that the president's coming.

00:25:56.000 But I'm very optimistic, Steve, that he usually closes us out, you know, because it's really hard to schedule around Donald Trump because you don't really know how long is long this year and how much of a stand-up comedy routine he's going to give you.

00:26:12.240 You know, I had a lot of people who went to the inauguration and said, dang, it was cold out there.

00:26:16.520 And I had to walk blocks and blocks and blocks, and I told him, it's okay if the inauguration didn't work out great for you.

00:26:22.620 Come to CPAC.

00:26:23.640 It's an indoor inauguration.

00:26:25.240 It has heat.

00:26:26.280 You'll have a seat.

00:26:27.660 There's an open bar and a buffet, so, like, you just can't beat it.

00:26:33.020 No, his best when he's doing some that's formal and he's going off the glass, and I say it's like Mort Saul, the guy that would take today's headlines and take a comedic turnaround,

00:26:42.520 but have a powerful, a powerful subterranean message that you got.

00:26:47.760 No, I know people, even with the Secret Service, everything has to happen.

00:26:51.580 These are monumental speeches when he gives them, so hopefully, and, of course, the press of world events, you never know.

00:26:56.960 It's always a call at the last minutes.

00:26:59.040 But, Matt, we've got about a minute.

00:27:00.860 Where do people go?

00:27:01.740 I want everybody to pile in this.

00:27:03.380 76 bucks for the War Room Posse.

00:27:06.560 We're broadcasting live there every day.

00:27:08.340 Maybe, although Matt Schlapp and Mercy have given a stink eye, we've got to tone it down.

00:27:13.640 Or we may have to have a rave in a different location, close to so, so I guess we'll have a rave.

00:27:20.080 I think toning it down is always a bad mistake for the War Room Posse.

00:27:24.560 I think you've got to turn it up.

00:27:27.360 We've just got to put you in a place where the room can rock, okay, Steve?

00:27:31.560 That's what we want.

00:27:32.360 Yeah, this is the last year at the National Harbor.

00:27:38.200 Thank God.

00:27:39.420 Thank God.

00:27:40.560 CPAC.org slash War Room Posse.

00:27:42.980 You go.

00:27:43.260 $76.

00:27:44.140 I want to thank Mercy and Matt for making that available.

00:27:46.700 Matt, what is your personal Twitter account?

00:27:50.700 At MSchlapp.

00:27:51.860 And you can follow me, and you'll get all the announcements of all the speakers and all the topics we'll be covering.

00:27:57.020 Believe me.

00:27:58.380 It's three and a half days, and we'll still miss things.

00:28:00.440 It's just the way it is.

00:28:02.360 Maybe we'll cover those at the War Room.

00:28:07.340 By the way, I hear that Megyn Kelly may do her podcast, and I think I was showing a podcast studio in space that's right next to the War Room where Senator Cruz and Megyn and everybody.

00:28:17.960 So it's going to be a great, great setup.

00:28:19.520 We appreciate it.

00:28:20.020 Matt, thank you so much for taking the time today.

00:28:21.620 All right, Steve.

00:28:22.160 Thank you, man.

00:28:22.820 God bless.

00:28:25.800 CPAC.

00:28:26.160 It's next week.

00:28:28.040 Force Multiplier Academy, and you get a free lunch.

00:28:32.360 People last year raved about it.

00:28:34.320 The lunch, too.

00:28:35.240 Short break.

00:28:35.840 Back in a moment.

00:28:37.340 The mind.

00:28:40.500 I've been telling you about a very serious threat to your home equity.

00:28:46.760 Home title fraud.

00:28:48.960 One document.

00:28:50.040 A fake notary stamp.

00:28:51.160 And about $40, and your title is out of your name and into someone else's.

00:28:55.700 And the scammer who took it will take out loans or, even worse, sell your home behind your back.

00:29:01.540 You have to protect yourself.

00:30:08.480 Do you want to be chairman of the Kennedy Center board?

00:30:11.500 Because I want to make sure it runs properly.

00:30:14.580 We don't need woke at the Kennedy Center.

00:30:17.080 We don't need—some of the shows were terrible.

00:30:19.740 They were a disgrace that they were even put on.

00:30:21.500 So I'll be there until such time as it gets to be running right.

00:30:25.520 Have you seen any shows there?

00:30:26.800 How do you know they're terrible?

00:30:27.340 I didn't go.

00:30:28.020 No, I got reports.

00:30:29.320 It was so bad, I didn't want to—I didn't want to go.

00:30:32.060 There was nothing I wanted to see.

00:30:33.720 Thank you very much, everybody.

00:30:34.900 Folks, that's President Trump, and that has been a bombshell.

00:30:43.980 He got rid of the board over at the Kennedy Center, which is high church in the secular, demonic, administrative, and deep state that controls the imperial capital. 0.51

00:30:54.880 President Trump has removed the chairman of the board.

00:30:57.780 He's going to step in and be the chairman of the board.

00:30:59.540 He's removed board members.

00:31:01.280 He's going to take active charge, which is so brilliant.

00:31:03.460 You have to take charge of high culture, and that's what the Kennedy Center is.

00:31:09.460 I made a recommendation just in a brief couple of seconds this morning.

00:31:12.500 I think it was Posto was on.

00:31:13.880 I said you have to—the J6 Choir, we should have a special evening of the J6 Choir.

00:31:19.820 Invite all the J6 families. 1.00

00:31:21.840 They should come.

00:31:22.400 I think that's gone viral as these people have melted down.

00:31:25.220 So I've asked Brother Kieperman to join us from Passage Press, one of our leading public intellectuals,

00:31:30.960 and put on an incredible dinner and really bringing some of the thought leaders in MAGA and others, the broader MAGA coalition, together during the inauguration.

00:31:44.480 Sir, so you're kind of—you keep your hand on both pop culture and high culture.

00:31:48.460 What are your thoughts about Trump stepping in and brooming the board and getting rid of Rubenstein over at the Kennedy Center?

00:31:54.960 Well, it's a beautiful thing, and, you know, I'm just so excited to see finally in my adult lifetime a Republican, conservative, right-wing, call it whatever you want,

00:32:05.200 administration and political coalition taking culture seriously.

00:32:09.440 And, you know, this is something Andrew Breitbart, of course, talked about at length, that politics is downstream from culture.

00:32:16.360 And what he meant by that was the kinds of ideas and the values that permeate the landscape of our country and that occupy people's imaginations are what ultimately manifest into policy.

00:32:34.080 And forever, the left has owned all of these vehicles that control what that ideological landscape is in people's heads.

00:32:44.240 And so leftism just becomes the sort of water we're swimming in.

00:32:47.880 And that's how these ideas, despite being broadly unpopular, become normalized over time.

00:32:53.560 And, you know, suddenly one day you wake up and DEI is the de facto law of the land.

00:32:57.820 Your kids come home from school, you know, and they're questioning what gender they are and what previously seemed like radical fringe ideologies, you know, are just a part of this ordinary landscape of ideas.

00:33:09.240 So it's absolutely critical that the rights start taking culture seriously.

00:33:14.580 And there is no better place to do that than, like you said, at the high church, the Kennedy Center, which in all ways is symbolic of America's high culture.

00:33:24.320 When you say that, what do you mean that?

00:33:28.800 Because President Trump's been quite upset.

00:33:31.300 You know, he thinks of culture, he thinks the classic operas, the symphonies, the great plays, the Western canon.

00:33:37.240 And obviously you have things from throughout the world because you're you want to get a sampling or understand the greatness of these other societies and culture, too.

00:33:46.320 But President Trump's upset because that's not what you're seeing.

00:33:49.120 They're not bringing their best.

00:33:51.500 What is the problem over the Kennedy Center?

00:33:53.140 Well, OK, so this starts, you know, the person I look to is Les Rubenstein and this woman named Deborah Rudder.

00:33:59.740 Deborah Rudder became the president of the Kennedy Center in 2014.

00:34:04.220 In 2019, she initiates a, quote unquote, social impact as the central area of programming for the Kennedy Center.

00:34:13.840 This is just a giant DEI scheme.

00:34:16.080 So I'm just going to read to you from a little bit from the website.

00:34:19.680 This is the language they use.

00:34:21.360 The mission of the program is to, quote, use the arts as a tool for social impact, equity and inclusion.

00:34:27.960 The series explores how art can be a catalyst for public healing, decolonization and global change, highlighting the intersection of art and activism.

00:34:38.260 They partnered with Black Lives Matter or an affiliate organization called Black Culture Matters.

00:34:44.600 They have a program called the Latinx History Project.

00:34:47.920 Again, this is just fringe, radical, left wing, woke slash DEI ideology being manifest through the arts and then force fed to the American public, even though they don't want it.

00:35:04.400 And it was frankly rejected at the ballot box.

00:35:07.660 And I will say that it's not only a good thing that Trump has his target set on the Kennedy Center.

00:35:16.080 I would say it's his obligation.

00:35:17.460 The American people voted for Donald Trump and the Trump administration and, more broadly, MAGA-ism to root out this ideology from our public space.

00:35:29.680 And doing this at the Kennedy Center – I don't want to overinflate the importance of the Kennedy Center – but doing this at the Kennedy Center is a symbolic gesture that the time of woke, the time of this fringe, radical leftist ideology is over.

00:35:44.120 No, these centers, by the way, the Lincoln Center in New York, the one in L.A., these centers are the railheads of how the elites control high culture.

00:35:59.480 And controlling high culture and twisting it, they control the high ground. 0.68

00:36:05.520 You have to take it.

00:36:06.480 And you have other – by the way, the failure also, Brother Kieberman, is not just at the – it's failed at the box office also.

00:36:17.380 If you took the taxpayer subsidies away from this, there's not – there's any philanthropy.

00:36:21.920 There's no real there there to support this. 0.94

00:36:24.000 This crap all goes away because even in the theater crowd, there's not any real will to write a check here, is there, sir? 0.98

00:36:30.880 No, I like American culture. 0.99

00:36:34.080 I love American culture, in fact.

00:36:36.280 And the truth is we don't need to come in and kind of like impose our own extremist sort of right-wing view of what culture is.

00:36:44.340 No.

00:36:44.520 All you need to do is remove the artificial incentives from these programs from places like Hollywood, and you probably know this better than anyone, and an organic right-wing culture.

00:36:57.480 And I think when I say right-wing, I just mean sensible, a culture that celebrates American history and our legacy and the heroes of our past and encourage a positive vision for the future.

00:37:13.140 All of this stuff will just happen on its own.

00:37:15.780 We don't need to put a heavy hand on the culture.

00:37:19.100 All we need to do is remove these malign elements, root out the radical ideology that is infecting and degrading what should be and ought to be great monuments to ourselves, to America, and to the great people who have come before us and created this wonderful culture.

00:37:38.180 You've got other ideas also about some of the other agencies, operations, also the ones that are near culture or education.

00:37:50.540 Tell me what your thoughts are more broadly.

00:37:53.960 All right.

00:37:54.300 So there's all sorts of room to run here.

00:37:57.240 And once you start digging into how pervasive these programs are and where money is spent, you start to see opportunities for us, again, to remove the malign influence of the left and allow a healthier, more natural, organic culture to unfold.

00:38:12.780 One obvious example of this is the 250th anniversary celebration that's coming up next year.

00:38:19.000 This is something that I hope the Trump administration pays close attention to and is willing to put a lot of money into.

00:38:24.840 This celebration of what America is will allow us to define our own narrative.

00:38:33.080 This will allow us to reassert the symbols and people and our vision for the future that we want the American people to understand and we want the rest of the world to see.

00:38:45.420 We need to put money into this.

00:38:47.380 We need to start thinking long and hard about what kinds of exhibits and where we do stuff.

00:38:53.340 I'm thinking, you know, we could do 250 statues to great American heroes across the United States.

00:39:00.960 We could reopen the NEH Library for America grant and reconstitute our own American canon, the great books, the great novels, the great history of our past.

00:39:13.980 So I want us to pay close attention to these narratives.

00:39:17.800 They matter.

00:39:18.580 The culture matters.

00:39:20.240 And what we do with the culture will shape what happens with politics in the future.

00:39:24.560 Where do people go to – where do people go to get more about this?

00:39:31.020 Because this is one where at the top of the first inning, you're going to be one of the leaders in this because you're one of the leading public intellectuals in the MAGA movement.

00:39:38.580 Where can people go find out more about Passage Press, your writings?

00:39:41.980 Yeah, thanks, Steve.

00:39:42.720 And quite frankly, the people that – the writings you're promoting, which I think is great.

00:39:48.140 Yeah, thank you, Steve.

00:39:49.080 So I would encourage everybody to go to our website, Passage.press.

00:39:53.240 We're a publisher.

00:39:54.380 It's a full bookstore.

00:39:55.680 And we're doing with our publishing house precisely what I'm just talking about.

00:40:00.680 It's both new ideas to break us out of this cul-de-sac that we're in, but also reasserting the great stuff of our past.

00:40:08.780 And, you know, so we have HP Lovecraft.

00:40:10.980 We have the original Hardy Boys for the first time.

00:40:13.120 We have books for young boys to enjoy.

00:40:16.300 So please go to our website.

00:40:18.180 Purchase those books.

00:40:19.360 You can follow me on Twitter.

00:40:21.160 Follow Passage Press on Twitter, on my sub stack.

00:40:24.700 So just, yeah, search Lomaz.

00:40:26.160 Search John Keeperman.

00:40:27.020 You'll find what you need to find.

00:40:28.040 John, one last thing before you go.

00:40:32.100 Your dinner was pretty extraordinary.

00:40:33.860 What was the feedback?

00:40:34.860 Because you had a very eclectic crowd.

00:40:36.540 You had the crypto guys there.

00:40:38.460 You had the day traders.

00:40:40.140 You had some hardcore right-wing populist nationalists.

00:40:43.560 It was quite a mixture.

00:40:46.480 How did that turn out?

00:40:47.300 What's the feedback you got?

00:40:48.940 It turned out great.

00:40:50.140 And, Steve, I want to thank you for showing up and giving just a fiery keynote speech.

00:40:54.520 Everybody was fired up.

00:40:55.640 Everybody loved having you there.

00:40:57.620 And, you know, the reason why I wanted you there is because for everything that's going

00:41:02.940 on, I really do think you are the heart of the MAGA movement.

00:41:06.320 You are the godfather of the MAGA movement, the champion of the people.

00:41:09.960 And we have a bunch of new coalition partners coming in this time around.

00:41:13.640 It's no secret that, you know, the Trump 2.0 also consists of this tech crowd, crypto

00:41:19.840 people, people who may have been on the fence previously about Donald Trump, people who

00:41:23.580 might have been, you know, Ron DeSantis supporters.

00:41:26.680 There's a lot of room here for new people to come in.

00:41:29.700 And it's OK for it to be a big tent.

00:41:32.140 But and this is what I wanted to do with the event was set the anchor down that this is still

00:41:38.400 a movement about the American people in the interest of the Americans who for decades have

00:41:44.320 been left behind.

00:41:45.220 And I wanted these guys, these new coalition partners to hear that from you.

00:41:49.480 So I think it was really successful.

00:41:51.400 I think it's an opportunity to generate conversations going forward and for us to find common ground

00:41:56.920 because we still have an active enemy.

00:41:59.980 The left is still there.

00:42:01.200 They are on retreat retreat for sure.

00:42:03.240 But they are still there and they're waiting for their opportunity to pounce.

00:42:06.620 And we can't get complacent.

00:42:08.140 And we need all the help we can get to defeat them.

00:42:13.840 One more time, where did it get you on social media?

00:42:17.120 It's at Lomas on XL zero M three Z.

00:42:23.920 Thank you, brother.

00:42:24.800 Appreciate you.

00:42:25.560 Great dinner.

00:42:26.300 Great publishing firm and great ideas.

00:42:28.560 You're definitely getting the mix on this Kennedy Center thing.

00:42:31.080 No doubt.

00:42:32.080 Great.

00:42:32.600 Great.

00:42:33.140 And thank you for the kind words.

00:42:34.160 President Trump, though, is the Mac daddy of the MAGA movement.

00:42:39.660 And he proved it.

00:42:40.420 Folks, Donald Trump is crushing the spirit of the administrative and deep state.

00:42:47.860 It's just not the media.

00:42:48.880 This Kennedy thing is kind of their toy.

00:42:51.260 I'm not so sure President Trump went more than a couple of times in his entire first term.

00:42:56.100 People in the Trump administration were made to feel quite uncomfortable going over.

00:42:59.480 That was their church.

00:43:00.760 That was their clubhouse.

00:43:02.080 And they ran it the way they want to run it.

00:43:05.240 And you just heard from Jonathan about how woke they turned it really to the detriment of the country.

00:43:11.340 It is the country's is paid for by taxpayer.

00:43:14.320 If you cut taxpayer subsidies out from a lot of this radical fringe stuff on the left, the arts, it just goes away.

00:43:20.560 Because even people on the left will not support it, will not financially support it through philanthropy.

00:43:26.000 And they certainly won't support it through the box office.

00:43:28.300 It's kind of the debacle that the Academy Awards have turned it to since they've gone to 10 best pictures.

00:43:32.860 I mean, it's a disgrace.

00:43:33.860 You cut on Turner classic movies.

00:43:35.620 You look at the films in previous years in Hollywood's golden age and you compare it to what is nominated and wins today in these best picture categories.

00:43:43.380 It's a joke.

00:43:44.740 It's a complete joke.

00:43:46.500 But President Trump dropped the hammer.

00:43:48.500 The Mac Daddy dropped the hammer.

00:43:50.160 And they are shattered.

00:43:51.720 So anything to support we can give President Trump in that as he tries to turn around the culture.

00:43:56.460 Talk about a guy who's got a plate full.

00:43:58.400 Does he have too much on it?

00:44:00.300 I mean, talk about broad shoulders.

00:44:01.920 It's incredible.

00:44:02.520 And we're going to have some great EOs here in a minute.

00:44:05.620 We're going to go back.

00:44:06.720 We've got Brian Glenn at the White House.

00:44:07.920 Back in a second.

00:44:09.300 You wish you could have invested in the stock market last year when investors scored the highest profits in decades.

00:44:15.360 But between that mountain of bills and credit card debt, you had nothing.

00:44:19.380 And I mean nothing left over.

00:44:21.300 It's time to stop letting debt hold you back.

00:44:25.080 Let me tell you how done with debt can help.

00:44:27.540 They have a brilliant new strategy designed to tackle your debt and put cash back into your hands so you can save and invest and build the life you've been wanting.

00:44:39.480 Done with debt goes head to head with credit card and loan companies.

00:44:43.540 Their team of negotiators and legal experts work to significantly reduce your bills, eliminate interest, and erase penalties.

00:44:51.660 This frees up cash to invest while the stock market is still hot.

00:44:56.320 The bottom line is this.

00:44:58.840 Done with debt helps turn crushing debt into financial freedom.

00:45:02.780 That's crushing debt into financial freedom.

00:45:06.500 But some of their strategies are time-sensitive, so don't wait.

00:45:10.380 Start building the life you deserve.

00:45:13.000 Visit donewithdebt.com and talk with one of their strategists.

00:45:16.860 It's free.

00:45:18.320 Go to donewithdebt.com.

00:45:20.240 That's donewithdebt.com.

00:45:23.360 Here's your host, Stephen K. Mann.

00:45:26.320 Okay, let me reiterate.

00:45:29.420 One of the first things we have to do, and I just found out from my ever-cracked staff, who's still having to give me the price.

00:45:33.960 Gold's $29.37?

00:45:35.540 Yeah.

00:45:35.980 Wow.

00:45:36.480 $38.

00:45:37.560 $38.

00:45:38.120 We don't hawk gold here.

00:45:40.540 We put you in touch with birch gold, and we learn you up on capital markets and geopolitics, the kinds of things that the world needs to hedge from, the kinds of things that central banks start buying gold in bulk, right?

00:45:55.940 When you start talking monetary theory, or modern monetary theory.

00:46:00.020 Anyway, go to Birch Gold.

00:46:00.880 You get it all.

00:46:02.260 I think that's why people have had such a great relationship with them.

00:46:05.160 They help you understand it, and you make your own choices.

00:46:07.040 But it has been a store of value throughout mankind's history.

00:46:11.460 Why is that?

00:46:12.200 There's some pattern recognition there.

00:46:14.920 Number one, governments never learn, never go throughout history.

00:46:20.360 And they always say it's a famous book from the professor at Harvard.

00:46:23.040 At Harvard, this time it's totally different.

00:46:28.320 Untrue.

00:46:29.740 And debasing one's currency.

00:46:31.460 Birchgold.com to go check it out.

00:46:33.600 Or you can pick your phone, dial Bannon, 989898.

00:46:37.480 Get, it's a brochure you need to read.

00:46:40.480 Investing in gold in the age of Trump.

00:46:45.400 It'll hit you right between the eyes.

00:46:49.060 You'll fully understand this.

00:46:50.380 So go check it out.

00:46:51.080 And then talk to Philip Patrick on the team.

00:46:53.320 Mike Lindell.

00:46:55.160 First off, Lindell, CPAC.

00:46:57.300 You're going to be there.

00:46:58.800 He's coming to the – so I'm warning everybody now.

00:47:02.180 Lindell's going to be live at the Real America's Voice studio with War Room.

00:47:08.620 You'll see because we caused so much noise, folks, and we had a choice.

00:47:11.960 We either toned down the noise and the live participation and be closer to Media Row,

00:47:16.340 which is right beside the main auditorium, because the hotel was going nuts

00:47:19.660 and some of the people were presenting.

00:47:20.900 And it wasn't fair.

00:47:21.600 Our audience is so cranked.

00:47:22.520 Or we can move a little bit and have more of a space down with Megyn Kelly and others 0.99

00:47:26.920 that we could go buck wild.

00:47:29.560 And so, of course, we chose the latter.

00:47:32.100 And Lindell will be there.

00:47:33.880 Mike, talk to me about CPAC.

00:47:35.140 Why is it so important this year to attend, and why are you going for all three days?

00:47:39.140 Well, I'm going all three days.

00:47:41.040 This is the expansion of our voice, everybody.

00:47:43.240 When they tried to take away our voice on January 7th and 8th of 2021, they tried to

00:47:48.180 take it away forever.

00:47:49.200 1.2 million people were deplatformed on Vimeo, Suckabucks, Facebook, Jack Dorsey's X, all

00:47:55.660 of it.

00:47:56.360 Remember, Parler was deplatformed.

00:47:58.660 The mainstream media was just not talking about the election or nothing.

00:48:03.100 Well, CPAC was there for you.

00:48:04.880 They were there for our real president, and they were there for our voices.

00:48:07.940 It gave all of our smaller voices a chance to be big voices and get the word out about

00:48:14.000 not just what was going on, everybody, and about the truth, but also to get the word out

00:48:18.500 about and make our platforms bigger.

00:48:20.500 That's why CPAC is so important.

00:48:23.020 And, Steve, I got a surprise for everybody at CPAC.

00:48:26.220 I just got okayed today by CPAC.

00:48:30.180 Everyone that comes through that door is going to get a free copy of my book.

00:48:33.360 So, we're shipping thousands of them there this week, and I'm going to be there, like

00:48:39.520 I say, not only with you, Steve, with the War Room Posse, but also I'll be speaking from

00:48:43.820 the main stage, and my topic is our voice.

00:48:47.180 That's basically what is so important, everybody.

00:48:50.120 Now we have all these media platforms, and Steve, I want to tell you, you were like the

00:48:55.480 part of the genesis of that, that never gave up.

00:48:58.380 When they tried to destroy us in January of 21, I always compare it to being on TV, everybody.

00:49:04.240 The old-fashioned TVs, the black and white TVs, you turned it off and went down to a little

00:49:08.280 tiny dot, and we turned it back and came back to life.

00:49:10.940 That little dot was our voice, and CPAC and your show, and that just expanded it all.

00:49:18.460 I knew I had, we'll tell the story at CPAC, we'll do it live, because I don't know, but

00:49:21.560 I didn't know Mike.

00:49:23.100 I didn't know Mike until after that.

00:49:24.620 You know, he came on, and I'll give the story later about what happened when he came

00:49:27.520 on, but I remember seeing the Rose Garden, because we watched Trump all the time, Brooklyn,

00:49:32.080 and I saw Rose Garden, I saw this guy stand up and start testifying right there in the

00:49:36.920 Rose Garden, and I turns around and goes, is that that crazy Mike Pellick guy?

00:49:40.340 And he starts giving testimony, and I go, wow.

00:49:43.400 I said, this is amazing in the Rose Garden live, and Trump can't stop him.

00:49:48.260 He's on, he's an unstoppable train.

00:49:50.780 It was one of the greatest moments in the history of the White House.

00:49:53.900 That story's in the book, too.

00:49:56.220 That was quite amazing.

00:49:57.480 There's a lot more to it than that, everybody.

00:49:59.440 It was surreal.

00:50:02.460 Oh, President Trump loved Mike Lindell.

00:50:04.720 Those years, those were some tough years, but we'll go back through the whole history,

00:50:08.020 from Arizona to South Dakota.

00:50:10.340 We had so many times.

00:50:11.500 Mike, people are asking, I want to get to the special, but I gave you a little more time

00:50:15.840 today, because so many people have come to me about the cross, particularly as they're

00:50:19.900 starting to mock, like, you know, some of the people in the White House are wearing

00:50:25.120 their crosses or crucifixes out publicly, and people are starting to, like, oh, they're

00:50:32.260 fake Christians, et cetera. 0.76

00:50:33.820 You're providing this.

00:50:35.060 Talk to me about the crosses, and how do people get it?

00:50:37.400 Yeah, it was one of my most requested products to make over the years.

00:50:41.780 I've been wearing my cross for 20 years, even back when I was in the crack houses. 0.99

00:50:45.520 I always wanted to be that person, and I wasn't afraid to show my, you know, my Christianity.

00:50:55.420 I wasn't afraid to show my faith, and I just put it right out there, and people said, hey,

00:51:00.760 Mike, could you come?

00:51:01.620 You went on, will you sell a cross?

00:51:03.060 At first, I felt kind of, you know, indifferent about it, and then I said, you know what?

00:51:06.860 I'm going to do it, and now you can get the crosses.

00:51:10.160 They have the men and the women's. 0.98

00:51:11.760 The women's is interchangeable, so you have the mother of pearl look on the front, and 0.99

00:51:16.480 the back, it's black right there, so that's interchangeable, and the women's has an adjustable 0.99

00:51:23.480 chain on it, the solid sterling silver chains, and you can get, that's one thing you can get

00:51:30.560 with the war room.

00:51:32.040 This is a war room exclusive where you can get 30% off everybody, and it has been a phenomenal

00:51:39.100 response.

00:51:39.880 Everybody, I'm thinking, I didn't know if they would, if people would actually, you

00:51:43.980 know, follow up, because I get requests for products all the time, but this was probably

00:51:48.180 my most requested product, and people have just followed up.

00:51:52.680 And also, everybody, you all have responded to this, too.
