Bannon's War Room - Episode 4751： UK Under Siege And Battlefield Chicago

00:00:00.000 I am thrilled to report that the U.S. Space Command headquarters will move to the beautiful

00:00:07.300 locale of a place called Huntsville, Alabama, forever to be known from this point forward as

00:00:16.260 Rocket City. Okay, so Huntsville, Alabama, we love Alabama. I only won it by about 47 points.

00:00:24.240 I don't think that influenced my decision, though, right? That didn't, right? When you come out and

00:00:30.320 when you leave the room, you'll see that we just, over the last few minutes, literally shot out a

00:00:36.640 boat, a drug-carrying boat, a lot of drugs in that boat. And you'll be seeing that and you'll be

00:00:44.100 reading about that. It just happened moments ago. And our great general, head of the Joint Chiefs of

00:00:52.320 Staff, who's been so incredible, including what took place in Iran, knocking out potential nuclear 1.00

00:01:02.080 power for a long time to come. I think within a month they would have had it if we didn't do what

00:01:06.600 we did. But he gave us a little bit of a briefing. And you'll see. And there's more where that came

00:01:13.620 from. We have a lot of drugs pouring into our country, coming in for a long time. And we just,

00:01:19.820 these came out of Venezuela and coming out very heavily from Venezuela. A lot of things are coming

00:01:25.040 out of Venezuela. So we took it out. And you'll get to see that after this, after this meeting is

00:01:32.240 over. And I know people don't like us, even a year in, as a government, saying, this is what we

00:01:37.280 inherited. This is what we inherited, right? There was a widespread use of asylum hotels by the 1.00

00:01:43.880 Conservatives. That increased enormously, at enormous cost. Yeah, you keep going back to the

00:01:48.000 Conservatives. And it won't be a quick fix. We will sort it. Your lawyers, under your guidance, have said

00:01:55.080 in terms that the rights of asylum seekers are more important than the rights of local people in

00:02:02.760 Epping Forest. Would you at least acknowledge that that is what they will hear? And I, it's not,

00:02:11.760 it's up to you. Ministers can say, we agree with that, or we don't agree with it. You can't simply

00:02:17.740 say, let's balance things. Do you agree with what your lawyers said, or don't you?

00:02:23.060 Yes, of course we do.

00:02:53.040 Mega Media. I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.

00:02:59.740 Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose? If that answer is to save my country,

00:03:06.700 this country will be saved. War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Band.

00:03:13.040 You're in the War Room. It's Tuesday, September 2nd in the year of our Lord, 2025. It's Natalie

00:03:24.080 Winters hosting on yet another historic day. So much going down at the White House. I guess,

00:03:30.740 sorry to all the Democrat haters, President Trump is indeed not dead. In fact, they are delivering not

00:03:36.460 just on promises, but I think going very above and beyond, whether it's everything going on in

00:03:43.420 Venezuela, moving space wars, we're going to get into all of it. But I want to start with where we

00:03:48.000 concluded our cold and nice juxtaposition, shall we say, what's going on in the UK. Anytime we seem,

00:03:56.980 I guess, nowadays to talk about what's going on over there, it always has to do with censorship and

00:04:01.840 suppression of speech. And there's no better person to break that down than the one, only Mike

00:04:06.200 Benz, who joins us now. Now, Mike, before we get into what exactly that GB News clip was discussing,

00:04:13.060 I want to start with what I think might even be more insane. It's wild. The arrest of a comedian

00:04:20.020 over transphobic posts. I think when we joked about that, we were called crazy conspiracy theorists.

00:04:25.360 Can you sort of walk us through this whole incident from start to finish?

00:04:28.080 Well, this story is so insane, it may actually be a kind of tipping point in the free speech fight

00:04:36.200 in Europe. Graham Linehan is an award-winning comedy writer. He wrote Father Ted and a bunch of other

00:04:44.760 sitcom series. He's a pretty famous guy. He took a trip to Arizona from the UK, and he tweeted

00:04:54.300 about three comedic tweets on X about transgender and gender issues. And when he returned to Heathrow

00:05:05.120 Airport in London, he was met by five armed police officers who immediately took him effectively off

00:05:13.500 the tarmac into state custody. And he is now facing prison over the tweets that he made in the US,

00:05:25.100 making fun of transgender people. And the one condition of his bail was that he, so he's allowed 0.99

00:05:34.220 to essentially, you know, his bail condition was that he's not allowed to post on X. So the only reason

00:05:42.160 that he is not remaining in custody awaiting trial where he will surely face this kangaroo court in the

00:05:50.820 monstrosity of the UK judicial system under these hate speech laws. So the only way that he was

00:05:57.840 essentially allowed to spend his remaining days of freedom until his trial, not in a prison cell,

00:06:05.960 was by agreeing not to have a social media account, not to post on X. So essentially it falls to the

00:06:12.480 rest of the world to tell Graham Linehan's story because the UK state is so afraid of his Twitter

00:06:19.200 account that if he tweets, his bail will be revoked and he'll be immediately in jail. So this is kind of

00:06:27.120 the worst case scenario come to pass. He made these tweets while in the United States. These tweets

00:06:33.860 were completely banal. They were making fun of the mental instability of many folks in the trans 0.91

00:06:41.000 community with the kind of comedic punch him in the balls punchline to one of the tweets. 0.96

00:06:47.160 This is the sort of thing, and he's a comedian and a high profile one. I mean, this is very clearly a

00:06:53.960 message from the British state that if you challenge the system in any way, however light, however comedic

00:07:02.080 or satirical, there is no quarter, you will be immediately rolled up by the police. The UK now

00:07:08.520 has over 30 arrests for online speech a day. The estimate was 12,000 a year people arrested for

00:07:15.400 their tweets in the UK based on a Times report from April. That is, I think, something like 30 to 50

00:07:24.740 times more than the amount of people that get arrested in Russia for online speech. They are

00:07:33.120 truly the world's new North Korea. And I think the entire US-UK special relationship has to be

00:07:39.740 immediately renegotiated because this is a tyrannical hellhole state who is trying to export

00:07:45.960 their censorship here. I have to add one more thing, and I think that we discussed this last week.

00:07:50.480 The British government is also fining American tech companies, American social media companies

00:07:55.800 like 4chan for not censoring what the British state wants, while these are American websites

00:08:02.900 hosted in America, run by Americans. So this is like no taxation without representation

00:08:10.260 all over again. They're trying to tax us from abroad. They're trying to arrest people who visit the

00:08:16.920 United States and make speech in the United States the moment they return back to the UK.

00:08:21.160 I think all negotiations have to be ground to an immediate halt until we can figure out what the

00:08:26.760 hell is going on in the UK. Now, if I'm not mistaken, I feel like I've had you on a lot of times these

00:08:33.400 past few months to talk about what seemed to be the progress that the Trump administration,

00:08:38.140 particularly Vice President Vance, was making when it came to negotiating with the UK over a lot of

00:08:43.580 the censorship stuff, not just against their own people, but like you said, more concerningly,

00:08:48.200 Americans, or at least speech that's done on American soil. So where do we stand with all of

00:08:53.680 that? Was a lot of that just performative, or what are the forces that are sort of dragging from the

00:08:58.720 pits of censorship hell, the UK back into what they were doing before?

00:09:03.520 Well, there was some initial success with getting a delayed enforcement of their online censorship act.

00:09:10.200 It's called the Online Harms Act, but it's the Digital Censorship Act. Its implementation was

00:09:14.860 delayed because of tariff threats by the Trump administration, but it ultimately ended up going

00:09:19.760 through and is being enforced now. Really, we're kind of in month two of its very serious enforcement.

00:09:27.460 And right now, to me, this gets back to the question of the US-UK special relationship and

00:09:34.840 what needs to be done in order to actually grind this to a halt. The fact is, is the British use

00:09:41.400 the Americans for their war in Ukraine, for their wars in Afghanistan, for their wars in Africa.

00:09:48.020 There are British mining interests, British banking interests that are completely dependent on US

00:09:54.480 manpower, US muscle. NATO itself is best conceptualized as a British operation. I mean,

00:10:02.220 this was famously, Lord Esme, the first head of NATO famously quipped, NATO's purpose is to keep

00:10:11.040 the Americans in, the Russians out, and the Germans down. That presupposes it's a British operation 0.83

00:10:19.280 to use American muscle and American money to accomplish British aims. Enough of this. I think that it is a

00:10:27.280 mistake, frankly, for President Trump to campaign on getting all these countries to give more and

00:10:33.700 more money to NATO when we're effectively giving it to British military operations. I understand that

00:10:41.180 there are political constraints, and he needs to keep a big tent. So obviously, the president will do

00:10:45.940 what the president does. But I can't help but point out that every dollar you're giving to NATO is going

00:10:51.160 to help a British banker. That's going to mean more Christopher Steele's running operations here in the US.

00:10:57.000 They're host to all of our censors in exile, the Marina, the Nina Jankovitz type. So they've all fled to these 1.00

00:11:06.100 UK NGOs and are working with the UK government. We saw the Biden administration working directly with the UK

00:11:13.740 foreign office and the UK digital ministry in order to do joint US-UK censorship work.

00:11:20.440 This is getting way, we're way past way too far already. And there has been this protected bind,

00:11:28.420 this kind of cocoon of warmth between the US and UK since effectively World War I, World War II.

00:11:38.420 And there's been an entangling of our intelligence networks, famously NSA and GCHQ, CIA and MI6. All

00:11:48.960 these networks are hopelessly intertwined. And there needs to begin to be this unentanglement,

00:11:55.840 this disentanglement, because the message has to be sent. If we don't stop them from taxing our tech

00:12:03.560 companies and taxing our speech and arresting people who speak there, speak here the moment

00:12:08.880 they go over there, then, I mean, they're taking more aggressive action against us than China is. 0.57

00:12:15.940 Even China doesn't do that. Think about that.

00:12:19.040 Just give me a few minutes. You talked about how the Biden regime was very involved with a lot of

00:12:23.480 this. Have you seen any of these people sort of enter this back via these NGOs that you were

00:12:28.340 talking about or are still involved in this, not through the government purview, but more through

00:12:33.160 the sort of, you know, private sector capacity? Absolutely. I'll give you an example. The Super

00:12:40.780 Bowl of censorship planning every year is kind of a tie between the Atlanta Council 360 Conference

00:12:47.660 and the University of Cambridge Disinformation Summit. The University of Cambridge, I cannot tell

00:12:53.820 you how many USAID funds, how, what proportion of British NGOs and British universities are funded

00:13:04.720 by U.S. State Department and U.S. USAID money, as well as DARPA grants and the like. We export so much

00:13:12.460 of these development funds to British institutions. I don't think a single dollar should go to the

00:13:18.440 University of Cambridge. A single dollar should go to the London School of Economics. A single

00:13:23.040 dollar should go to King's College London. Every dollar of investment in London, in Cambridge,

00:13:32.480 in, frankly, the British tyrannical government state has to be re-evaluated by this State Department,

00:13:41.020 by this Defense Department, by the development agencies and bureaus that still remain

00:13:47.440 until this entire relationship is renegotiated. They are punching us square in the face with these

00:13:55.820 censorship laws. They are robbing American tech companies of our money. They're robbing our social

00:14:01.180 media companies of our money. They're robbing American taxpayers of our money with every dollar that we

00:14:08.120 invest. It's time to punch back, and they need our money. They can't win their wars without our money.

00:14:15.040 They don't get their mining deals in Eritrea or Afghanistan or Ukraine without our money.

00:14:21.440 Let's see six months of them getting donuts and see what they look like at the negotiating table

00:14:26.540 after that. Mike Benz, there is yet another scandal that we have to get into after the break,

00:14:32.680 so I'd appreciate you hanging with me. This one's even crazier, I guess, at the intersection of

00:14:37.960 speech migrant rights and your tax dollars subsidizing, I guess, their better lifestyles 0.99

00:14:44.100 than yours. That one also hits close to home here in the United States. We've got Mike Benz,

00:14:48.700 Reagan Reese, who is hot off a wonderful interview with President Trump and Representative Mary Miller

00:14:53.940 on the latest going on in Chicago. We'll be right back. More Mike Benz after the break.

00:14:57.640 This July, there is a global summit of BRICS nations in Rio de Janeiro, the bloc of emerging

00:15:05.980 superpowers, including China, Russia, India, and Persia, are meeting with the goal of displacing 0.95

00:15:12.740 the United States dollar as the global currency. They're calling this the Rio Reset. As BRICS 1.00

00:15:19.520 nations push forward with their plans, global demand for U.S. dollars will decrease, bringing

00:15:24.220 down the value of the dollar in your savings. While this transition won't not happen overnight,

00:15:30.740 but trust me, it's going to start in Rio. The Rio Reset in July marks a pivotal moment

00:15:36.560 when BRICS objectives move decisively from a theoretical possibility towards an inevitable reality.

00:17:57.320 that's Bannon to 989898. Welcome back to the War Room. We still have Mike Benz with us.

00:18:05.920 Now, Mike, I want to sort of blend this into yet another, I think, just wild double standard

00:18:12.280 when it comes to not just the housing of refugees, but the treatment of protesters, people

00:18:17.200 burning flags. I know that's been outlawed here in the United States, but when you juxtapose that

00:18:21.380 in the UK with what a lot of these, you know, Palestinian and Hamas demonstrators are allowed

00:18:25.440 to do, it's quite an interesting and telling double standard, I think. But can you walk us through

00:18:30.320 what is going on in Epping with regards to the housing of migrants?

00:18:35.880 Well, it's an extraordinary story. You have this essentially, you know, peaceful town that was

00:18:43.920 essentially invaded by a hotel was effectively bribed with tens of millions of dollars by the

00:18:52.760 British state to house migrants from Afghanistan and Eritrea and the like. You know, these are war-torn

00:19:01.520 conflict zones. And so this, you know, peaceful little picturesque town has been completely

00:19:08.400 overrun with this war refugee problem. And the people were up in arms about it. They passed a 1.00

00:19:17.320 resolution to try to basically block the hotel from housing these people. And you know how this

00:19:24.620 goes. They do the same thing here in New York and San Francisco. They get these very nice hotels. They

00:19:30.380 give war refugees who are serving the CIA or MI6. They're sending remittances back to their families. So

00:19:37.500 it's effectively USAID funding. And so the more free stuff the taxpayers give them, the more that taxpayer

00:19:44.220 money ends up in remittance payments back to these shadow CIA MI6 networks in war-torn Eritrea or

00:19:53.100 Afghanistan or Sudan. And that's what you'll see. The demographics are all in these CIA conflict 0.98

00:19:59.100 zones. And then this is effectively one of these bargaining chips that the foreign policy establishment

00:20:04.340 has with these populations. If you guys go to war for us, if you do favors for us, if you give us

00:20:09.780 local protection, we'll bring your families over. And, you know, none of the people making those

00:20:14.800 policies live near these war refugees, are afflicted by these mass incidences of rape and sexual assault 0.97

00:20:23.160 or crime. They impose them on essentially the lower middle class. And it completely destroys the towns and 0.94

00:20:31.840 cities and villages they live in. But what happened was effectively a judge overturned the people's

00:20:38.700 will and imposed the migrant, you know, the war refugee hellscape on the city of Epping. And this has 1.00

00:20:48.520 caused effectively a revolt online to the extent that it's legal to do so. It's mostly being led,

00:20:56.160 frankly, by a few brave souls in the UK, combined with Elon Musk and other American allied, like-minded

00:21:06.720 folks who believe in free speech. And so you've seen the English flag has been trending on X. There

00:21:13.760 has been a big move to support the advance party in the UK by Elon. This is the sort of alternative to

00:21:21.600 Nigel Farage's reform party. I think what Elon and Tommy Robinson and the like have been saying is that

00:21:29.360 Nigel Farage is not going far enough in sticking up for British freedom and sticking up for the British

00:21:36.240 people. There have been some reports that deputies in the reform party are being sacked or being told

00:21:43.520 not to retweet Tommy Robinson and the like. So there's kind of a little bit of a civil war on the populist

00:21:49.360 right. And there's, you know, now kind of the beginnings of a serious movement to try to put

00:21:56.160 a party forward who is neither Tory nor Labour in the UK as both of those parties are as captured here

00:22:03.120 as the pre-Trump Coke and Pepsi, you know, George Bush, Bill Clinton choice that you had for the past

00:22:11.920 25 years in this country before Trump. Mike, I'm just curious, the ramifications here in the United States,

00:22:21.200 you always talk about how they're sort of the same actors that are that are pushing for this. Obviously,

00:22:26.080 the Biden regime, there is more collaboration there. But what do you think the takeaway should be for us here?

00:22:30.720 Kill every dollar of funding to the city of London. They're big boys. They have big banks. 0.99

00:22:39.120 They'll be all right. A message has to be sent. We will know the right thing is being done from

00:22:46.320 this State Department in this White House. When there's a when there is a screaming headline about

00:22:52.320 how upset the UK ambassador to the US is about the state of negotiations and the pullout of US

00:23:01.440 financial investment in the British establishment and the British foreign policy realm. This has gone

00:23:08.160 too far at this point. They are arresting people. There was always this idea that the US and UK are,

00:23:16.400 they're different systems. They have a monarchy over there for what it's worth. They don't have a

00:23:22.160 first amendment, but there has been this big historical bond. But the idea that you can make

00:23:27.280 a tweet in Arizona and then think that you can fly to London and everything will be fine,

00:23:32.800 and you end up being hauled away by five armed guards awaiting prison, only allowed bail if you

00:23:40.480 agree to never open your mouth again. This is the sort of thing that is frankly a major international

00:23:48.960 incident, and a message has to be sent. If you punch people on American soil,

00:23:55.600 you'll be hit by three times that force in the United States.

00:23:59.920 Mike Bentz, as always, thank you so much for joining us. If people want to follow you in

00:24:03.040 the meantime, where can they go to do that?

00:24:05.920 Follow me on x at Mike Bentz Cyber, also video archives on Rumble and YouTube.

00:24:10.640 Thank you for joining us.

00:24:13.200 Thanks, Natalie.

00:24:14.960 I'm honored to go to our next guest. I call her the gold standard of a White House correspondent.

00:24:23.040 That is my friend Reagan Reese of The Daily Caller. Reagan, yet again, you have a wonderful interview

00:24:29.600 with President Trump. Give us some of the top line hits. I know there's been like 80 articles,

00:24:35.920 written off just probably like each minute of your interview with him, but a lot to get into.

00:24:42.080 Walk us through some of the heaviest hitters.

00:24:46.080 Well, first, Natalie, let me say I spent an hour with the President in the Oval Office on Friday,

00:24:51.520 and I woke up Saturday morning to liberals thinking that President Trump is dead. And so I didn't think

00:24:56.320 it was going to fall on me to prove that the President is very much alive, and he totally was.

00:25:01.920 When I walked in the Oval Office, he was more energetic than I've ever seen anyone in my life,

00:25:07.360 alive, ready to chat, was ready for me. And we had a really productive conversation.

00:25:13.120 He told me that he's open to reopening insane asylums to clean up the streets of DC. He explained 0.88

00:25:20.000 to me the thought process behind allowing 600,000 Chinese students over two years in the United States,

00:25:27.040 which I think is a big policy that matters to the MAGA base, wondering why he did that and why

00:25:33.600 he doesn't want universities to fail. He also said that he believes Israel has lost its influence

00:25:40.080 on U.S. Congress over the last 15 years and that it's not what it used to be. He added that he would

00:25:46.400 not be bothered at all to see John Brennan and James Coney arrested on live television. He talked about

00:25:53.680 the Russia and Ukraine war. He also explained to me why he is considering using U.S. forces

00:26:00.160 in the air to end the war in security guarantees. And then, of course, the President took me out to

00:26:06.800 the Rose Garden to show me where he is going to hang all of the presidential portraits. He's going to call

00:26:11.840 it the Presidential Wall of Fame. And I asked him, Mr. President, are you going to hang Joe Biden's

00:26:17.200 portrait? And he said to me, all right, let's show you. I want to hang a photo of the auto pen.

00:26:23.120 And he asked me for my advice on whether I think he should do it or not. And I said, Mr. President,

00:26:29.600 I think it's very Trump. I think you have to do it. So you can expect a photo of the auto pen to be

00:26:34.880 hanging in Joe Biden's place on the Presidential Wall of Fame in about two weeks in the Rose Garden.

00:26:40.000 And did you get to see it or what did the gallery look like?

00:26:46.080 So when you walk out to the Rose Garden, right now it's being marked a little bit. There are like

00:26:50.560 placeholders for the frames. But President Trump did bring out like George Washington,

00:26:55.360 Thomas Jefferson's portraits in very beautiful gold frames. Kind of give me an example of what

00:27:00.880 some of the portraits are going to look like. And he had a huge stack of papers printed on his desk,

00:27:06.480 I'm sure, to show me different articles and things that he's reading. And right on the top

00:27:11.760 was that photo of the Biden auto pen. And I believe he's actually truthed it out before.

00:27:17.440 It's circulating right now on Twitter. And so that's what you can expect. I think it's a little

00:27:21.760 pen that says auto pen. It's going to go right where Joe Biden should be, in between two pictures of Trump.

00:27:29.920 That's an absolutely wonderful troll break. And if you can hang with us through the break,

00:27:34.080 I want to actually get into some of the substance behind that. I don't think a lot of people know,

00:27:37.920 but you were actually a White House correspondent during the days of the Biden regime. If you can

00:27:42.400 believe it, the Daily Caller had someone in there. I know you weren't probably called on

00:27:46.320 nearly as much. And something tells me you were not given the access that you have now to the

00:27:50.720 president. I can't imagine you doing an interview with Biden. I guess I can't imagine him doing many

00:27:55.600 interviews that remain unedited. But I'd love to just get some of your kind of inside scoop there and why

00:28:01.840 this portrait really probably is justified, if anything. The White House is still probably

00:28:06.160 going pretty soft. Hang with us through the break. We're in posse. We'll be right back. More Reagan,

00:28:10.320 Reese, and like I said, Representative Mary Miller of Illinois. I think the only Republican calling

00:28:15.600 for President Trump to deploy a National Guard to Chicago. Wild, there's only one. But she'll join us 0.99

00:28:21.840 after it. We'll be right back. You missed the IRS tax deadline. You think it's just going to go away?

00:30:59.080 scam I'm talking about. I'm sure that's probably been done, but we still got Reagan Reese with us. 0.99

00:31:03.480 Reagan, you have done some wonderful reporting. Like I was saying on sort of the juxtaposition

00:31:07.840 between the Biden regime and the Trump administration, very intentional with addiction there. 0.95

00:31:12.780 Um, but just walk us through, yes, obviously it's a troll. It's funny. Um, but what you sort of 0.74

00:31:17.960 experienced firsthand during your time there and why this portrait is probably not that far off from

00:31:22.780 reality. Well, it can be boiled down to the fact that we really never saw president Biden and I

00:31:31.320 covered the Biden white house for a year, a little over a year. I got one question of president Biden

00:31:37.380 and his answer. He didn't even speak his answer to me. He just shook his head. And I got three

00:31:42.940 questions of white house press secretary, Corrine Jean-Pierre, two of which she gave me because there

00:31:48.160 was a snowstorm. No one showed up to the white house briefing. And I was essentially one of the

00:31:53.020 only people left that she hadn't called on. She ran out of people to call on. Uh, but when you hear

00:31:57.340 people talk about the Biden auto pen pen scandal, it's because president Biden, we now know,

00:32:03.200 and this was reported, I was reading back New York times reporting, didn't sign his, uh, pardons from

00:32:09.700 December to January. He only signed one and it was that of his son, Hunter Biden. And president Biden

00:32:15.820 actually called the New York times to talk about this. And he said, yeah, I had to authorize the

00:32:21.300 use of the auto pen because I just had too many pardons. And the New York times goes on to report

00:32:26.360 that what would happen is Biden would give verbal permission to his most senior aides to use the

00:32:32.380 auto pen. So no written record of Biden telling anyone to use the auto pen. They would then pass

00:32:38.340 that on to their lower aides, their assistants who would then summarize in their words, what they were

00:32:44.760 told by their boss, who would then send an email giving permission to the lady who mans the auto pen to 0.98

00:32:51.480 sign off on whatever. And when there were little changes that were needing to be made to groups of

00:32:57.600 pardons or communication documents, whatever, they would not go to president Biden for every single

00:33:03.520 one. Biden would just largely sign off on a large topic or a category for pardons, et cetera, whatever

00:33:11.940 they were putting out. And so they wouldn't even check with him about little individual, uh, things

00:33:17.600 that were made. And of course you don't expect the president to make, to keep track of every single

00:33:22.580 little development that happens within their white house. But this is seriously concerning

00:33:27.500 that it was this large game of telephone that was being played in the most important office

00:33:33.240 in the entire world. And so when I woke up on Saturday, hearing that people were so concerned

00:33:39.020 that president Trump hadn't made a public appearance in two days. I mean, I remember times being at the

00:33:45.140 white house where we didn't see the president for multiple days and the photographers would rush outside to

00:33:50.100 take a photo of the sunset because that's the most interesting thing that happened at the white

00:33:54.900 house. And you never, ever heard complaints like what we have heard or the hysteria of what we've

00:34:00.720 heard over our last few days. And Reagan, you're obviously in DC. So you've also seen DC under Biden,

00:34:08.440 under Trump. I think even mayor Bowser was forced to admit, uh, that president Trump is cleaning up

00:34:14.160 the city. Um, I'm curious, um, I'm curious your thoughts on how the DC cleanup is going thus far

00:34:19.300 as someone who, you know, is always in and out of the white house. You're around DC a lot. What's

00:34:23.400 your experience been? Well, Natalie, I moved from Capitol Hill during the Biden administration

00:34:29.440 because I did not feel safe. We had an attempted break-in at my place on Capitol Hill. Uh, I was like,

00:34:36.640 I can't do this anymore. I didn't feel safe walking through union station, walking through the Metro.

00:34:41.140 Actually the only time I felt walking, it felt safe walking through the union station was when

00:34:46.420 president Biden gave a speech there and they cleaned it up and remove removed all the homeless people

00:34:51.200 for his speech. And the very next day they were all back and it was back to being unsafe. Now I'm,

00:34:56.940 I told this to president Trump in the Oval Office, I've witnessed a crime in Virginia. And now that I'm,

00:35:03.560 you know, going to work every day in DC and there's national guard at almost every Metro stop,

00:35:08.940 making sure you get on the Metro safely. And there's 22 federal agencies who are patrolling

00:35:13.880 the streets every night, uh, to keep our streets safe. It just feels so much more different. And

00:35:19.400 then I'm getting statistics from the white house every day about the amount of people they've arrested.

00:35:24.300 And of course the number of total arrests, it's over a thousand. That's very impressive,

00:35:28.940 but I'm constantly struck by the amount of illegal aliens that they are arresting every night in

00:35:34.880 Washington DC. It's dozens every night. And that is unbelievable. I cannot believe how many illegal

00:35:41.880 aliens were in Washington DC. And the white house notes that these are illegal aliens who are being

00:35:48.200 arrested on additional crimes. They're not being arrested for being illegal aliens. They've committed

00:35:53.500 other crimes that has caused them to be arrested by, you know, the Trump crackdown of DC. It's something

00:36:00.960 that deserves so much more attention than what it's getting. Reagan, if people want to read the

00:36:07.180 piece, follow you, stay up to date with all of your wonderful reporting from the white house, where can

00:36:11.380 they go to do that? I'm on Twitter, Instagram, Reagan Reese underscore. Reagan, thank you so much for

00:36:19.080 joining us. And thank you for being, like I said, the gold standard of a white house correspondent.

00:36:24.320 You're the best, Natalie. Thanks so much. Thank you for joining us. And Denver, if we can actually

00:36:30.140 roll that clip of Mayor Bowser being forced to admit a Trump W, let's hit it. For carjackings,

00:36:36.420 the difference between this period, this 20 day period of this federal surge and last year

00:36:43.720 represents a 87% reduction in carjackings in Washington DC. We know that when carjackings go

00:36:54.820 down, when the use of gun goes down, when homicide or robbery go down, neighborhoods feel safer and are

00:37:02.760 safer. So this surge has been important to us for that reason.

00:37:08.460 I guess Governor Pritzker in Chicago may have missed that press conference, maybe too busy

00:37:13.740 campaigning for 2028, though I would think being not just soft on crime, but pro-crime is probably

00:37:19.680 not going to play too well with the American people, let alone those of y'all who live in 0.97

00:37:23.680 Chicago and know full well the reality of what that city is. If you guys remember, I went to college

00:37:28.860 over there on the south side of Chicago. That's where UChicago was. And I can attest that I

00:37:33.080 definitely think we need some form of the National Guard, certainly an upped law enforcement presence

00:37:37.620 there. You would think most Republicans in Illinois would agree, but we really only have one who's

00:37:42.840 being vocal about that, and that is Representative Mary Miller, who joins us now. Representative Miller,

00:37:48.860 I'm just curious to sort of get your top-line assessment. We're being told by Pritzker that,

00:37:53.680 you know, the clip we just played from Mayor Bowser is fake, that the deployments of, you know,

00:37:58.380 these various law enforcement agencies doesn't work. What are your constituents telling you? How do

00:38:04.180 they feel about their sort of lived reality on the ground?

00:38:06.680 Well, the people are afraid, and he's trying to gaslight them and force them to deny reality.

00:38:16.500 And he has a track record of not telling the truth. So he should humble himself and get on the phone

00:38:23.920 and call President Trump and get help. And, you know, it's a year ago he was happy to have the National

00:38:31.300 Guard come in to protect his friends at the DNC. So why not come in and protect the wonderful people

00:38:37.720 of Chicago that are suffering right now? This is a tragedy for them.

00:38:43.680 And just walk us through the problem for, you know, those who aren't maybe super familiar with 0.96

00:38:48.740 what life is like in Chicago, or is it all of Illinois, or what parts are we talking about where

00:38:55.400 you think this sort of additional force, either protection or people being there would actually be

00:39:00.520 advantageous? Right. Well, of course, the crime is concentrated in Chicago, where the people are.

00:39:07.800 But J.B. Pritzker rolled out the red carpet for illegals, which has exasperated the problem.

00:39:13.320 But this has been an ongoing problem. The Democrats have controlled Chicago for almost 100 years,

00:39:19.520 and now it's turned into a virtual war zone. And I do want to say that Chicago is a beautiful city

00:39:26.480 with a great history, wonderful people, and so much potential. But the citizens that live there

00:39:33.780 are being terrorized by crime. It is a virtual war zone. This past weekend, there have been 50—there

00:39:39.280 were 54 shootings this past weekend. Eight people died. And this is typical. Since January 1st,

00:39:47.320 I believe there were 147,000 crimes reported, and there were only, I think, 16 percent of those

00:40:01.400 resulted in arrests. And then, even that, we have something called the Safety Act in Illinois,

00:40:07.400 which releases criminals onto the street without having to post any bond. It is a disaster for people.

00:40:13.400 And President Trump has a proven record. He's tamped down the crime in two weeks in Washington,

00:40:20.040 D.C., and made it a safe city. But he has a record of proving that he cares about the American people.

00:40:26.440 And the first role of the government is to protect the people. And that's what he's done by securing our

00:40:33.000 border, standing up for rule of law, getting the National Guard in D.C., and tamping down crime there.

00:40:40.680 And I completely believe President Trump that he is coming to Chicago.

00:40:47.960 Well, I think you get to the heart of it, right? The idea of protecting the people. I always say Democrats

00:40:52.200 have this perverse view, I think, of the social contract. You see it, whether it's immigration,

00:40:56.280 the H-1B stuff, right? They think that our government should be actively working to undermine, 0.93

00:41:00.840 whether it's Americans' quality of life, wages, name your pick. But there's something,

00:41:05.080 I think, bizarrely and almost uncanny levels of sinister about the way that Pritzker is doing

00:41:11.560 his interviews, where he's just so flippant and glib about, you know, oh, yeah, I guess there were

00:41:15.640 54, you know, assaults or homicides committed. He just sort of laughs it off, says that it's a part

00:41:20.600 of city life. Is this sort of just like the Democrat mindset, the left, very far left progressive?

00:41:27.080 I mean, I don't think there's a lot of respect for humanity, but it's just sort of that on full

00:41:31.880 display. And they've proven it, that they would rather side with thugs, with gangbangers, with

00:41:40.680 illegals and the criminals over the victims or the citizens. And, you know, J.B. Pritzker can say 0.84

00:41:47.480 whatever he wants. He does not care about the people. I don't, I've not heard one story of him going

00:41:53.720 to visit a victim or the family of a victim, which that proves a lot. President Trump's

00:42:00.360 always reaching out to victims. He wants to comfort them. He wants to hear their story

00:42:05.240 and he wants them to be able to tell their story.

00:42:09.960 Yeah. And like I was saying, there's this evil, I think, compounding nature where, you know,

00:42:13.960 they won't do anything for Americans. But then just today, right, you see the DOJ suing Pritzker

00:42:19.480 for giving financial aid, free tuition, all those sort of benefits to illegal aliens. Can you walk 1.00

00:42:24.920 us through your thoughts to that, too? Is that the kind of action that you want from President Trump?

00:42:31.080 Oh, yeah, absolutely. Well, you know, President Trump needs to bring ICE in in a big way because

00:42:38.040 we are a safe haven. Well, we're a sanctuary state and Chicago is a sanctuary city for illegals. They 0.82

00:42:44.200 can't even handle their own problems. And now we're inviting illegals to come in and picking up the tab for 0.99

00:42:50.360 them completely. And then we keep expanding benefits. So I know Pritzker's expanding the benefits for

00:42:59.720 higher education for illegals now. It's completely outrageous. I don't know if you've heard the story 1.00

00:43:06.280 of the woman in Winnetka. Her mom actually came in my office and she was a guest of President Trump's

00:43:15.960 at the White House because he wanted to hear her story, but her daughter was beheaded.

00:43:19.880 And Representative Miller, we have to jump to break. And I want to give you time to tell that story and

00:43:26.040 give that woman justice. We're going to come back with a clip of Pritzker just flippantly dismissing all

00:43:31.320 the murders and homicides like the one you were just referencing in his city. We got Representative

00:43:37.320 Miller. We still have a lot of stuff to get through. We'll be right back. More War Room after this short

00:43:41.960 break. We rejoice when there's no more. Let's take down the CCP. According to the Department of Energy,

00:43:49.880 blackouts could increase by 10,000 percent over the next few years. It's because of massive energy demand

00:43:56.120 from artificial intelligence data centers. We talk about that all the time here in the War Room.

00:44:01.240 And we have a fragile power grid. It just cannot keep up with that demand. I don't know about you,

00:44:06.920 but I don't like the idea of being without power even for a day. That's why I got the grid doctor

00:44:12.200 3300 from my patron supply. It's a powerful solar generator that runs refrigerators, AC units,

00:44:19.320 medical devices, power tools, anything you need to write out a blackout. And right now for their Christmas

00:44:25.480 in July event, they're including over $1,000 in free survival gear with your generator, including

00:44:33.080 emergency food supply, water filtration, survival tools, and more. You heard that right. Over a thousand

00:44:39.480 bucks in free gear for a limited time. Head to mypatriotsupply.com slash Bannon. That's mypatriotsupply.com

00:44:47.560 slash Bannon and grab the Christmas in July bundle before it's gone. Blackouts are coming.

00:44:53.640 Go to mypatriotsupply.com slash Bannon and get prepared today. You're going to hear people,

00:44:59.800 especially this past weekend, 54 shot, seven dead. Yeah. They're going to say the city's not safe.

00:45:07.080 Would you ask your friends to ride the L after midnight or after, you know, nine o'clock at night,

00:45:11.880 even down to the city from O'Hare? Look, big cities have crime. There's no doubt about it.

00:45:19.000 But let's just pay attention to what President Trump is doing targeting Chicago. He's overlooking

00:45:25.640 red states that have much higher crime rates.

00:45:30.040 There's crime and then there is, you know, unforced criminality by importing an entire 1.00

00:45:35.400 subset of a population that is members of gangs, transnational gangs involved in the drug trade and

00:45:41.320 apparently beheading as Representative Miller. I'm sorry to cut you off, but if you want to pick up

00:45:46.040 where you left off, just talking about your constituents and the people that you've met

00:45:49.640 with who I think Britsger could probably do well to meet with too. Yes. Well, Chicago has become a war

00:45:56.600 zone. The Democrats have had control for almost a hundred years. The murder rate in Chicago is higher than

00:46:04.120 any city in any city in our country. It's actually 15 times higher than Delhi, India. It is a disaster 1.00

00:46:11.800 for the people that work there, for the businesses and for travelers. It is a war zone and he needs

00:46:18.840 help. Now, besides, so since January 1st, there have been 147,000 reported crimes in Chicago. And of those,

00:46:28.760 there have been arrests in only 16.2% of them. That is pathetic. On top of that, they are being 0.98

00:46:36.200 released because of the safety act, which JB Pritzker has lauded as being good for the people

00:46:42.520 in Illinois. And in light of the safety act, what I was telling you is I had a mom come in my office,

00:46:48.520 a very traumatized mother. Her daughter was beheaded by an illegal in Winnetka and put in a trash

00:46:58.440 can. 51 days later, the police found the body. And according to the mother, he admitted that he

00:47:06.840 beheaded her daughter. The judge released that man saying he wasn't a threat to the community or a

00:47:15.480 flight risk and let him go back to the crime scene. I can't fathom that this happened. Thankfully,

00:47:21.480 President Trump sent ICE to Winnetka and arrested the man, and he will be held until his court date. But

00:47:30.840 literally, this is proof that JB Pritzker sides with thugs, criminals, and illegals before the

00:47:38.200 citizens, before the law-abiding citizens in Illinois.

00:47:41.800 Representative Miller, we appreciate you for speaking out. I wish more of your

00:47:48.280 Republican colleagues would do the same. Before we have you back on in the meantime,

00:47:52.040 where can people go to follow you, check out everything you're working on,

00:47:54.680 or if we have some of your constituents listening and they want to talk to you,

00:47:57.160 where can they go to do that? Sure. Just Rep. Mary Miller. 1.00

00:48:00.520 Thank you, ma'am, for joining us. You're welcome.

00:48:07.800 Honored to be joined back by Mike Lindell. Mike, I feel like it was a few weeks that I didn't have

00:48:12.200 the privilege to have you on, so thank you for gracing us with your presence. I hear you are hot

00:48:17.880 off the White House, but also a perfect segue from our last guest talking about bad governors in the

00:48:24.040 Midwest. Everyone is curious. I know you're maybe mulling a run yourself. Did meeting with President Trump

00:48:31.240 or any of this crime talk, what we've been seeing play out in D.C., influence your decision?

00:48:38.120 Yeah, absolutely. I've been in D.C. now today and tomorrow. I'm going to be at the White House

00:48:42.520 in both days. And, Natalie, I made a walk. Now, I've been coming to D.C. now every month for the past,

00:48:49.720 since he's been back in office. And I had to make about a mile and a half walk there by myself today

00:48:55.960 to the White House. And it is a different feeling here, that you feel more secure. Now, granted,

00:49:01.480 I have the same people coming to me, thank you for saving the country. And, Mike, what are you doing?

00:49:05.480 Blah, blah, blah. But you don't feel threatened. You just feel it's just too protesting here and be

00:49:13.480 happy here. But it's the safeness. You feel more secure. And, Natalie, the mayor saying here,

00:49:18.920 what was it, just a week ago or whatever, saying, hey, this is working. This is working.

00:49:24.760 And me being from Minnesota, where we know what's not working, remember, our governor,

00:49:29.960 they burned down the streets of Minneapolis. We have the most nonsensical governor the world

00:49:34.600 has ever known. He gave driver's licenses, everybody. Are you ready for this? To all the illegals. 1.00

00:49:40.040 They all get everything free. They get, you know, here's your driver's license. Do you think they're

00:49:45.160 not voting? Of course they're voting. And so, yeah, this doesn't really put an influence on me,

00:49:50.680 everybody. Everyone knows I've been very much considering running for governor of Minnesota.

00:49:56.200 And I will tell you this, Natalie, the polls came back. And one of the preliminary polls,

00:50:01.240 election security is now in the top three in Minnesota, what people are concerned about in this

00:50:07.080 next election. Some of the places in the country has become the number one issue. Not illegals, 1.00

00:50:12.280 not the economy, not abortion, but our elections, because everything comes from our elections, you

00:50:18.120 guys. But anyway, I'm very happy to be on and be back here at the war room. I've been so busy the

00:50:24.520 last couple of weeks. But I wanted to tell you all here, I came back just in time because right now,
