Transcript

00:00:00.000 Three weeks now of the government shutdown, having real impacts on people's lives, not getting paychecks.
00:00:05.260 But you had the president yesterday now kind of gleefully talking about Russ Vogt, the OMB director.
00:00:10.680 While this is going on, I'm having him cut projects to blue states, calling him Darth Vader, saying this is fun for us.
00:00:17.520 We get to take things away from states that didn't vote for me.
00:00:20.720 You know, the amazing thing about this is we are just nine months into the Trump presidency.
00:00:24.860 And the level of exhaustion that he has provided each and every day is just beyond belief.
00:00:30.820 It's historical. You just can't imagine it.
00:00:33.520 I mean, on this day in 1962, John F. Kennedy addressed the nation in the Cuban Missile Crisis.
00:00:38.920 That was the highlight of his first year in the presidency, maybe the highlight of his first couple of years in the presidency.
00:00:45.140 Now it's every day, multiple times a day, that we have to focus on something that happened,
00:00:50.000 whether he's destroying the East Wing and the White House, whether he's on again, off again with Vladimir Putin.
00:00:54.560 The blue states can form legal interstate compacts, and they should come to a position, if you're a Democratic governor,
00:01:04.660 that this moment of maximum abuse of power demands 100 percent of the time, in 100 percent of the instances,
00:01:17.520 the maximum use of your legal power.
00:01:20.440 However, if you hear, and there are way too many Democratic leaders in Washington who say,
00:01:27.900 this will all just go back to normal when Trump is gone, that person is a fool and deluded.
00:01:35.780 And that person absolutely should not be in a position of responsibility in the opposition party.
00:01:44.540 This is a moment of deep, deep, deep, deep danger for the American Republic.
00:01:54.060 The amount of armaments being bought by ICE.
00:01:58.740 What Trump is declaring is, I'm king, I'm law.
00:02:02.720 Why not $500 million as he demolishes the White House in an act of corruption paid for by billionaire oligarchs and companies?
00:02:16.860 Facebook demolished the White House.
00:02:20.520 Google demolished the White House.
00:02:24.240 Sam Altman demolished the White House.
00:02:27.940 And the politics of this moment, as the American people face economic misery ahead,
00:02:36.220 will demand not going back to something that's gone,
00:02:41.620 but imagining something that's new that prevents any of this from ever happening again in the United States of America.
00:02:51.880 We owe that to our children to heal our sick society from the sick and twisted presidency of the fascist Donald Trump.
00:03:03.060 I think John Thune was hoping Democrats would fold in the first week or 10 days,
00:03:07.580 which I think was perhaps a conventional thought in Washington
00:03:11.540 and hoped that they could peel off six, seven more Democrats beyond the three that I think first voted to keep the government open.
00:03:20.520 And it just hasn't happened.
00:03:22.480 And so I think Thune is now basically wedded to the Trump-Johnson theory of just trying to hold out, hold out.
00:03:29.200 He has offered an olive branch promising Democrats that will be almost simultaneous votes to reopen the government
00:03:37.340 and then address the health care issue.
00:03:39.900 But I think Thune is running up against something, which is words we don't typically say, democratic unity.
00:03:46.500 And by the way, I think health care is the vehicle, but let's be honest.
00:03:50.840 This is a general strike.
00:03:52.860 And it's a general strike among Democrats against Donald Trump's abuse of power.
00:03:57.780 It's the only leverage they have.
00:03:59.480 They don't control the House, Senator, White House.
00:04:01.800 The one weapon they have in their arsenal politically is we can shut down the government
00:04:06.940 because it takes 60 votes in the Senate to keep the government open.
00:04:09.620 That's all they got.
00:04:10.580 This is their way of registering their opposition to Donald Trump's conduct, what you're talking about, day in, day out.
00:04:17.920 Health care is good politics at polls.
00:04:19.860 Well, I understand that.
00:04:20.940 This is more a general half the country is up in arms about how this man is running America.
00:04:28.020 And this is what we're going to do to say, you know what, half of America, we get it.
00:04:32.520 We hear you.
00:04:33.240 We're with you.
00:04:34.020 We're pissed, too.
00:04:34.760 Ed, what do you make of the calling off of the proposed meeting in Hungary?
00:04:39.400 I just, if you look at the state that Russia is in right now, you would think that Trump has a pretty good, strong upper hand to push Putin into a corner,
00:04:50.920 much like he did in the Middle East, where he was able to really pull things together and get a deal on the table.
00:04:58.060 Why is it so hard for him with Vladimir Putin?
00:05:01.100 Oh, you're right, Minka.
00:05:03.300 I mean, Russia, the Economist did a sort of meta estimate of Russia's death toll this year.
00:05:09.140 100,000 Russians have died this year, give or take.
00:05:13.100 Several hundred thousand since 2022.
00:05:17.020 You know, that's almost as much as America lost in Korea and Vietnam combined over many, many, many years.
00:05:23.060 This is in one year.
00:05:24.700 So there is acute manpower pressure in Russia.
00:05:29.400 There is also acute pressure on paying recruitment bonuses to get new soldiers because Ukrainians are getting the ability with drones and with their artillery and with their guided missiles to strike hundreds of miles deep inside Russia to strike Russia's oil refineries.
00:05:50.100 And they could soon extend that to their pipelines, too.
00:05:53.180 So the sort of spigot that is funding the ability to recruit Russian soldiers into this into this army with amazingly high casualties, that's that's being threatened, too.
00:06:06.920 So a perfect time for the president of the United States to use real leverage on Putin to get him to the negotiating table.
00:06:15.180 But it's leverage that for one reason or another, and we can speculate probably fruitlessly about what that reason is.
00:06:22.580 But it's leverage that Trump has still, nine, ten months into his administration, not been prepared to use and shows no signs of being prepared to use it.
00:06:32.160 We had you on last in 2017 to discuss your book, Antifa, the Anti-Fascist Handbook, when it first came out.
00:06:40.740 In the introduction you wrote, you hoped your work would promote organizing against fascism and white supremacy.
00:06:48.460 Can you elaborate?
00:06:50.840 Right. So anti-fascism has a broad history in the U.S.
00:06:55.980 Certainly there's the European inspired Antifa tradition.
00:06:59.520 There's also a really good book called The Black Anti-Fascist Tradition that talks about the role of anti-fascism in black liberation struggles, black panthers and so forth, which I suggest people check out.
00:07:08.080 So it takes many different forms.
00:07:11.400 What it has in common is actually this impulse towards unity and putting aside the differences that often divide the left in the interest of promoting the common struggle against fascism, against white supremacy.
00:07:24.480 And what we're seeing today in the U.S. is increasingly fascist.
00:07:28.220 MAGA, I believe, and I study fascism, I don't say this likely, is a fascist movement.
00:07:32.660 And if we don't organize, if we don't take action in the streets, we're going to end up somewhere really bad.
00:07:38.840 And for me personally, I felt like my situation was such that I had to get my family out of harm's way.
00:07:44.520 But this story about me is about me, but it's not really about me.
00:07:48.080 It's about attacks on academic freedom, free speech, the right to protest.
00:07:52.780 We're in a really dangerous situation.
00:07:54.680 And so everyone in their own way needs to take action to try and organize against this.
00:07:59.060 So we did the presidential walk of fame from the great George Washington all the way to, well, I think we have to rate him above me.
00:08:09.380 So it's less than great, less than George.
00:08:12.280 Somebody went up there.
00:08:13.380 They say, you're the third best president in the United States.
00:08:16.560 This was on television, third best.
00:08:18.800 And they said, who are the first two?
00:08:20.260 George Washington and Abraham Lincoln.
00:08:22.260 And I got extremely angry at this man, you know, you can't.
00:08:26.440 It's going to be it's going to be tough to beat, Mr. Senator.
00:08:29.640 It's going to be, John, it's going to be very tough to beat Washington and Lincoln.
00:08:34.440 But we're going to give it a try.
00:08:35.660 Right.
00:08:36.540 Hey, they didn't put out eight wars, nine coming.
00:08:39.680 All right.
00:08:39.960 We put out eight wars and the ninth is coming, believe it or not.
00:08:43.460 This is the primal scream of a dying regime.
00:08:53.420 Pray for our enemies because we're going to medieval on these people.
00:08:58.660 I got a free shot.
00:08:59.920 All these networks lying about the people.
00:09:02.900 The people have had a belly full of it.
00:09:04.900 I know you don't like hearing that.
00:09:06.320 I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it.
00:09:08.940 It's going to happen.
00:09:10.220 And where do people like that go to share the big line?
00:09:13.600 Mega Media.
00:09:14.520 I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
00:09:20.440 Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
00:09:24.140 If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.
00:09:30.500 War Room.
00:09:31.360 Here's your host, Stephen K. Vance.
00:09:39.760 Wednesday, 22 October, Year of Our Lord, 2025.
00:09:42.880 Welcome to the War Room, a day of intensity.
00:09:47.700 Government shutdown.
00:09:49.080 President Trump's negotiating with the Chinese Communist Party.
00:09:52.220 We have a huge guest coming on at 11 o'clock.
00:09:54.720 Major announcement about artificial intelligence.
00:09:58.560 Our one and only Joe Allen will join us.
00:10:01.400 If you did not see last night's 6 o'clock show, get it and watch it.
00:10:06.120 I will put it back up again later in the week.
00:10:09.380 Absolutely.
00:10:09.900 Joe Allen coming back from his 100-day journey through America and quite shocking some of the data that he has about artificial intelligence and about transhumanism and about the singularity.
00:10:21.860 So the specter over all of us is this drive by these oligarchs and the Chinese Communist Party and others to drive towards the point of the singularity.
00:10:34.860 From that point, there is no return, ladies and gentlemen.
00:10:38.120 The president of the United States and everything he's doing and balancing, one is this war against the radical element.
00:10:49.300 Because remember, the Democrats cannot win anymore at the ballot box.
00:10:55.060 The structural changes in the country's demographics and geographics make it so that this big surge to the south and to the southwest and to the intermountain west makes it that they're going to be very difficult for them to win the House of Representatives again to take back the Senate.
00:11:14.980 And with a real census that we need to do mid-decade, no longer will the Electoral College be within grasp.
00:11:22.400 And as they get more and more radical, this No Kings thing is obviously a flop.
00:11:27.680 But they're going to spiral into more and more violence.
00:11:31.840 Talk about structural.
00:11:32.800 North Carolina last night, the Senate voted for the new map.
00:11:36.880 So we're too jammed this morning to get DeGrasse, but we got DeGrasse on deck either for this afternoon or tomorrow to talk to you about the structural changes that are happening that make the Democrats less and less likely.
00:11:49.220 If we do our job, we have to do our job.
00:11:51.200 You have to get the grassroots out.
00:11:52.420 You have to get the MAGA vote out, obviously.
00:11:54.900 But if we do our job and you can see what the job is to do so you can see where the victory, where victory is, then it's just execution.
00:12:02.440 You don't have to be, you don't have to talk about strategy anymore or worry about that.
00:12:07.500 They're getting more and more radical.
00:12:09.740 They're getting more and more violent.
00:12:11.560 They're talking about violence nonstop.
00:12:13.500 Now they got the happy talk.
00:12:15.200 And the reason they don't talk about it at No King is because there's a bunch of hapless old people with their walkers, all these liberals, progressives that have a frictionless life as it is.
00:12:26.880 And all they do is bitch and moan about everything.
00:12:28.960 Right.
00:12:29.300 And you see this Rachel Maddow, they had this disastrous, you know, open cattle call the other night in New York with the MSNBC crowd.
00:12:38.220 It was quite humiliating, the audience, the crowd, the way they comported themselves.
00:12:42.960 I want to bring in Cliff Maloney.
00:12:44.280 So, Cliff, I've got you here from New Jersey, also talking about some redistricting, and you're our ground game guy, one of the leaders of the ground game movement.
00:12:55.100 But I got to ask you, that Antifa interview was just yesterday.
00:12:59.020 Talk to me about that guy because you and our own beloved Jack Posobiec are on his target list, are you not?
00:13:06.500 Yeah, you know, it's fascinating to me.
00:13:08.280 I wonder why I kept getting some random death threats back when this book came out.
00:13:13.160 But Mark Bray names me.
00:13:15.120 Steve, here's the best part.
00:13:16.160 I wrote an op-ed in Time Magazine.
00:13:18.400 Can you believe it or not?
00:13:19.160 Time Magazine actually published an op-ed that I wrote about campus free speech.
00:13:25.480 And the Antifa handbook names me and says, you know, this is horrific because Cliff Maloney stands for free speech on campus,
00:13:32.300 which means he must support homophobic, transphobic, misogynistic language, which now, you know, thinking back to obviously what happened to Charlie,
00:13:42.920 I wrote the op-ed talking about campus free speech.
00:13:46.260 And because of that, they put me in the Antifa handbook.
00:13:49.400 They're just wild people.
00:13:50.780 You know, these are not serious people.
00:13:52.460 And for them to do things like that, it just puts a target on a lot of our backs for just speaking for what I would call basic American freedoms.
00:14:02.280 That's where they do it.
00:14:03.480 Okay, Cliff, hang on.
00:14:04.440 We've got a lot to talk about, including this.
00:14:06.440 Dr. Thayer is going to join us.
00:14:08.100 We're going to talk a little bit about the Chinese Communist Party, President Trump, in this negotiation.
00:14:12.160 But cultural nationalism, which is a good thing, in Great Britain and Ireland, they've made it a bad thing.
00:14:23.120 And Ireland is on fire now.
00:14:26.620 We're going to break that down.
00:14:28.600 So much going on this morning.
00:14:30.020 We're packed wall to wall.
00:14:31.040 Cliff Maloney is in our Palm Beach, West Palm Beach studio.
00:14:36.000 We're going to talk a little New Jersey in this race, and particularly the ground game.
00:14:40.040 What do you need to do to get out the vote to have a victory like in 2024?
00:14:45.320 Short commercial break.
00:14:46.440 We're back in the warm in just a moment.

00:16:52.740 So now, North Carolina Republicans are one step closer to passing a gerrymandered congressional map at the request of Donald Trump.
00:17:01.220 Today, the state Senate voted to advance a redrawn map.
00:17:04.440 The House is expected to approve later this week.
00:17:07.560 Republicans already controlled 10 of the state's 14 congressional districts.
00:17:12.760 So the proposed map targets one more seat.
00:17:15.860 Democratic Representative Don Davis.
00:17:18.720 North Carolina's Democratic governor can't veto this plan because of the state's constitution.
00:17:23.880 So there you are.
00:17:24.860 There you are.
00:17:25.380 You know, a lot of people today, as we were talking about this, someone asked me, well, how is this even legal?
00:17:30.540 And these maps were redrawn in 2023.
00:17:33.720 2023, it's a great, it is the question to ask.
00:17:36.360 But to be very clear, this is the direct result of the gutting of the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
00:17:41.100 When the Voting Rights Act was passed for nearly 50 years after that, it was Section 5, the preclearance section, that made sure that states with a history of discrimination, like North Carolina, okay, had to have their maps cleared, precleared by the federal government before any changes to their maps would take place.
00:17:59.860 Well, in 2013, Shelby Beholder gutted that portion.
00:18:03.280 And this is what Chief Roberts said.
00:18:04.620 He said the times have changed.
00:18:06.040 Well, all have times have changed.
00:18:07.820 And the anchor of all of this is the Voting Rights Act because the Voting Rights Act required the states to stay in, to color within the lines.
00:18:18.800 In other words, this is power politics.
00:18:22.600 This is smash mouth.
00:18:24.800 Maximalists seize the institution's sense of urgency.
00:18:27.600 I don't want to hear their whining.
00:18:29.160 They've gun-decked this thing forever.
00:18:31.060 They've flooded the country with illegal alien invaders.
00:18:34.900 I have no mercy on these guys.
00:18:37.160 No pity.
00:18:38.640 And we need more.
00:18:40.600 We need, what, Kentucky and Missouri and Indiana.
00:18:44.020 Indiana, we need 9-0.
00:18:45.540 No happy talk.
00:18:46.520 No, oh, well, we might upset the New York Times.
00:18:50.080 We don't care.
00:18:52.500 Cliff Maloney, and the reason you're targeted and Posobiec are targeted, you guys are in the field.
00:18:58.420 You're like a, you were a field commander, one of the field commanders in Pennsylvania in the historic 2024.
00:19:05.140 And he came on the show months before and said, hey, if we can execute our plan, we will win.
00:19:10.680 So it's no more strategies if we can execute the plan.
00:19:13.860 The reason you're targeted by Antifa is not simply the fact you've been writing op-eds, et cetera.
00:19:18.800 They understand you and Posobiec and others are kind of some of the stalwarts of this movement.
00:19:23.640 And just like they assassinated Charlie Kirk, they're looking to target and put fear into other leaders of this movement.
00:19:32.400 Are you going to back down at all, Cliff?
00:19:34.480 Or have they gotten to you yet?
00:19:35.960 Have they rattled Cliff Maloney?
00:19:37.500 Steve, my response to them is simple.
00:19:42.120 Double down, right?
00:19:43.580 Part of this America First movement, and so many patriots that watch this show, the whole War Room Posse get this.
00:19:49.400 When these people come after you, there is only one response.
00:19:52.740 Any member of the political establishment, whether it's right or left, when they try to attack you, you can only respond by doubling down.
00:20:01.520 And Steve, let me announce this here to the War Room Posse because I'm looking at the data.
00:20:04.900 I want to report some numbers to you guys from New Jersey.
00:20:08.060 We've got this New Jersey Chase program.
00:20:10.480 And by the way, anybody who wants to help us out, njchase.com, njchase.com.
00:20:17.060 Here's the result, and here's the big update I want to give to the entire War Room.
00:20:20.940 As of this day, if you look just last year in the 2024 election, if you look this far out from the election in 2024, in New Jersey, we are performing at 5.5% better than we were one year ago.
00:20:36.920 And what do I mean by that?
00:20:38.180 I mean, when you look at the returns of Republicans versus Democrats, we are 5.5% better than we were one year ago.
00:20:45.880 And remember, Trump only lost Jersey by about 5.9%.
00:20:49.680 Jack Cittarelli, the governor candidate, four years ago, lost by just 3%.
00:20:55.240 So the program is working.
00:20:57.320 The NJ Chase effort is having an impact.
00:21:00.380 I'm not here today to tell you that Jack's going to win.
00:21:02.680 I'm here to tell you that New Jersey is in play, and we're going to do everything we can to try to bring him over the finish line.
00:21:09.900 If you would have asked me six months ago, I would have said there's no chance to win New Jersey.
00:21:14.300 That has changed.
00:21:15.520 That is different.
00:21:16.480 And I think we've got a shot here, and I'm asking everybody in the War Room posse to focus on New Jersey.
00:21:22.380 We've got a chance to flip a completely blue state for the America First movement.
00:21:28.180 The polling is around 3% to 5%, though, right?
00:21:34.300 The polling says right now I think it's 3% to 5%, and the Democrats have a natural advantage.
00:21:39.260 What then do we need to do as far as turnout goes?
00:21:41.980 This is going to be a turnout election.
00:21:43.940 What do you need to do in the Chase program and the other, the Scott Presslers of the world, all these people up in New Jersey?
00:21:49.920 Because Pressler says it, and I think you've also said it.
00:21:53.480 Pennsylvania could be the new Ohio.
00:21:56.120 And New Jersey could be the new Pennsylvania.
00:21:58.180 What do we have to do in the next couple weeks to make sure that we can push the Republican candidate over the top?
00:22:08.960 Yeah, you said it exactly.
00:22:10.460 It's a turnout election, right?
00:22:11.560 We've got 118 full-time staffers in Pennsylvania right now.
00:22:14.800 I've got 105 full-time staffers in New Jersey.
00:22:18.380 These are the two states that I'm spending all of my time in because, as you just said, Steve,
00:22:22.680 if Pennsylvania becomes the next Ohio, we've got a red wall that makes it impossible for Democrats to win a national election again.
00:22:30.280 If we flip New Jersey, we're talking about Democrats not being a party that can compete, I mean, in any way on the national stage, right?
00:22:39.420 That's why Scott Pressler is going all in.
00:22:41.520 That's why I'm all in.
00:22:42.660 Steve, let me read you a couple points here that I think data that really kind of speaks to where we are in this election.
00:22:50.380 And for those out there, I don't know how familiar people are with New Jersey, but I want to just share these points.
00:22:55.520 Hudson County, Passaic County, Union County, and Essex County.
00:22:59.500 These are all counties that Harris won by 20-plus points.
00:23:04.220 And one of the problems the Democrats have right now is their turnout, right?
00:23:07.780 This is a turnout election, Steve, as you said.
00:23:10.880 In these counties, they're between 3% to 6% turnout.
00:23:14.400 They're banking, banking on these counties being kind of what drives the win for this Democrat, Mikey Sherrill,
00:23:21.720 and they're just not turning out at the moment.
00:23:24.020 So I compare her, I call her, Mikey Sherrill, the Kamala Harris of New Jersey.
00:23:29.140 And why do I do that?
00:23:30.100 I'm not just being funny.
00:23:31.680 Steve, the more voters that interact with her, the more people that see her, that hear her message,
00:23:37.600 the more she's losing votes.
00:23:39.480 And it's proving in the data here that the enthusiasm gap for Jack Cittarelli versus her,
00:23:46.000 people are moving towards Jack.
00:23:48.080 And so when you ask me how do we win this election, it's very simple.
00:23:51.520 If Republicans sit on the sidelines, we lose.
00:23:54.360 If Republicans show up, turn out, either vote by mail, vote early in person, or show up on election day,
00:24:03.400 we're going to flip New Jersey.
00:24:05.280 Jack Cittarelli will be the next governor of New Jersey.
00:24:08.420 If every member of the War Room Posse reaches out to anyone who lives in New Jersey and tells them,
00:24:13.580 hey, you have to go vote, you have to show up for this.
00:24:16.960 This is about a referendum, not just on Donald Trump, but is the America First movement going to continue as a stronghold in the political arena?
00:24:26.920 This election will determine that.
00:24:28.540 This also solves, we have to talk about the elephant in the room.
00:24:33.140 The elephant in the room, we have not shown yet, either the Republican Party or ourselves as a movement,
00:24:40.100 that we can consistently turn out lower propensity, low propensity and lower information voters.
00:24:46.740 And what I mean by that is not intelligence.
00:24:48.220 They're just not that engaged in politics without Trump actually on the ballot.
00:24:53.340 But this is another test case of this and where we have to show that we can do that, correct?
00:25:00.820 No, 100%.
00:25:01.860 And listen, it's an interesting conversation at the door.
00:25:04.300 Let me tell you what the experience is like when we go door to door.
00:25:07.920 Our whole universe, Steve, once again, we have two phases in the New Jersey Chase program, just like we did in Pennsylvania.
00:25:13.440 The first phase, which is now over, is going to low propensity voters.
00:25:17.640 These are folks that have voted in zero, one, or two of the last four general elections.
00:25:23.780 And we say, hey, Bob, I know you don't vote that consistently, but we'd love to get you a request form to fill out so that you can get a mail-in ballot.
00:25:33.560 And Bob always says what you just said, Steve.
00:25:36.120 Oh, I vote every election.
00:25:37.720 Well, Bob, we've got the records here.
00:25:39.500 You voted in one of the last four general elections.
00:25:42.820 And I'm not trying to shame the voter.
00:25:44.060 I'm not trying to insult the voter, but I'm trying to have an honest conversation.
00:25:48.780 And we get them a request form, and then they fill it out, and we get a ballot sent to them.
00:25:53.020 Now, what happens once a ballot is sent to them?
00:25:55.480 Seven out of ten of these low propensity Republicans, once they get a ballot sent to them, will now vote.
00:26:01.880 They become likely to vote.
00:26:03.600 They become a high propensity voter.
00:26:05.800 That's phase one.
00:26:06.680 Phase two in this program is we go to every single door of a Republican who has a mail-in ballot.
00:26:15.640 And we say to them, hey, you've got a ballot sitting there.
00:26:18.800 Can we just confirm that you're going to send that back today?
00:26:23.280 And, Steve, here's the best part of the program.
00:26:24.880 We took this from Biden's 2020 playbook.
00:26:27.060 We go back with the same door knocker to the same door every seven days, and we continuously – we call it a reminder campaign.
00:26:37.220 Biden called it annoying the voter, right?
00:26:39.680 I don't call it that, but that's what Biden's people called it in 2020.
00:26:42.980 We call it a reminder campaign.
00:26:45.200 So we're going to these low propensity voters, and we're just saying, hey, send that ballot back.
00:26:50.240 And that's what this is.
00:26:51.480 It is a turnout game.
00:26:52.720 We don't have election day.
00:26:53.980 We don't have election weekend.
00:26:55.580 We don't have election week.
00:26:56.500 We don't have election month.
00:26:57.840 We have election season in America.
00:27:00.280 I'm not here to endorse it, Steve, but I'm here to tell the war room posse one thing.
00:27:04.640 If the rules remain as they do, we have two options.
00:27:09.260 We can sit out and we can lose, or we can fight fire with fire.
00:27:13.060 That's what we do at Citizens Alliance.
00:27:15.080 We're going to beat the Democrats at their own game, and if we're successful in New Jersey, we will have flipped one of the bluest states,
00:27:21.860 and it will be a total, total hide on the barn.
00:27:26.500 The greatest tee-up for the midterms can be this New Jersey situation.
00:27:31.140 Plus, it forces them to put tons of resources that they never thought they were going to have to put.
00:27:35.780 Cliff, where do people go to get to New Jersey Chase, to the Alliance, and to you, your social media?
00:27:41.300 Where do they go?
00:27:41.700 On X, at Maloney, M-A-L-O-N-E-Y, and then njchase.com.
00:27:49.120 That's njchase.com.
00:27:50.940 What if he had the brightest mind in the war room delivering critical financial research every month?
00:27:57.520 Steve Bannon here.
00:27:58.660 War room listeners know Jim Rickards.
00:28:00.340 I love this guy.
00:28:01.800 He's our wise man.
00:28:02.780 A former CIA, Pentagon, and White House advisor with an unmatched grasp of geopolitics and capital markets.
00:28:09.400 Jim predicted Trump's Electoral College victory exactly 312 to 226, down to the actual number itself.
00:28:18.080 Now he's issuing a dire warning about April 11th, a moment that could define Trump's presidency and your financial future.
00:28:26.480 His latest book, Money GPT, exposes how AI is setting the stage for financial chaos, bank runs at lightning speeds, algorithm-driven crashes, and even threats to national security.
00:28:38.040 Right now, war room members get a free copy of Money GPT when they sign up for Strategic Intelligence.
00:28:44.200 This is Jim's flagship financial newsletter, Strategic Intelligence.
00:28:49.540 I read it.
00:28:50.560 You should read it.
00:28:51.640 Time is running out.

00:29:03.240 It was almost as though there was a boogeyman out there.
00:29:08.600 We were facing a lot more enemy than we had the capability to deal with.
00:29:13.880 They dug trenches.
00:29:14.720 They fortified houses.
00:29:16.280 They were ready.
00:29:17.900 We wanted to go.
00:29:19.560 We were just waiting on the edge of a knife.
00:29:21.800 When are we going to get to go?
00:29:23.580 The order is seize the city.
00:29:28.420 RPGs, small arms fire from everywhere.
00:29:30.840 I told him that I wanted to go and he looked at me and said, Sergeant, you're going to die.
00:29:42.260 The destruction is just horrible.
00:29:47.660 The hardest thing about fighting this enemy is they're not afraid to die.
00:29:50.940 If they're not afraid to die, then how do you fight them?
00:29:56.480 Ramp's going down.
00:29:57.560 Be prepared to start at one end of the city and fight your way through to the other end.
00:30:08.320 There's firing going on.
00:30:10.020 There are grenades being thrown in the house.
00:30:13.780 He came hand-to-hand fighting.
00:30:15.780 It was so close.
00:30:16.720 Two selfless Marines run across this kill zone four times to pull Marines out of there.
00:30:38.400 I wasn't worried about getting shot or getting wounded.
00:30:40.940 I was worried about the guys to my left and right.
00:30:47.900 You always want to reassure these men that they've done their duty because that memory is seared into their soul.
00:30:54.700 They never forget it.
00:30:56.680 None of us do.
00:31:00.840 Foreign policy, I don't make it.
00:31:03.200 I just deliver the last 600 meters of it.
00:31:07.580 The foreign policy, I don't make.
00:31:09.960 I just deliver the last 600 meters.
00:31:12.420 This film was, I guess it was 17 years ago, I was honored with Michael Pack's wife to be the executive producer.
00:31:22.200 And Pack made a classic.
00:31:25.580 The Marines say, many of the Marines say it's the best film ever made about Marine rifle squads.
00:31:31.620 Because if you see Hollywood movies, they've got all kind of, you know, plot devices they have to use to try to draw a broader audience.
00:31:40.020 This is just the thing itself.
00:31:42.840 You see it for the entire time.
00:31:44.460 Pack was going to make a movie.
00:31:45.680 Michael Pack joins us.
00:31:46.620 We've got a special announcement.
00:31:47.560 We've got Pack here.
00:31:48.160 Maybe I hopefully got Mo.
00:31:49.260 So, Pack, when you left PBS the first time under Bush's, under President Bush's presidency, they basically said, well, finance a film you want to do.
00:32:00.560 And you were going to do a high-tech, you were going to talk about the Iraq War, modern warfare, kind of extrapolated from what had happened in the Gulf War as a super high-tech war.
00:32:12.000 And after doing your research, you came back and said, hey, this is really going to be a war about 17 and 18-year-old privates, non-commissioned officers.
00:32:23.760 They're in their early 20s and second lieutenants and first lieutenants going door to door in some of the most brutal fighting in the history of the United States Marine Corps.
00:32:33.660 In over 250 years, folks, that's saying something.
00:32:36.540 And this film is just brutal in its reality, and you come away just awestruck by the courage and compassion of the Marines, unlike any film I think I've ever seen.
00:32:49.940 It's just – you're just sitting there just – it's just absolutely stunning, the valor, particularly when you think about the confusion about what the cause was and what the purpose.
00:32:59.640 In World War II, there was no confusion at all about what the purpose was, what the task and the purpose.
00:33:05.900 Here, obviously, it was very contentious.
00:33:08.160 It gets more contentious over time.
00:33:09.860 But for the actual moment itself, first Battle of Fallujah, the Battle of Najaf, and the second Battle of Fallujah, the Mac Daddy, it's stunning.
00:33:19.880 Tell me about it.
00:33:22.040 Indeed.
00:33:22.820 I've moved even to see the trailer.
00:33:24.780 I mean, whatever you think of the Iraq War, we need to celebrate the young men and women that we asked to be on the front lines for us and risk their lives.
00:33:34.260 I think their honor has been clouded by mixed feelings about the war.
00:33:39.720 But now, as you know, we finished this film 17 years ago, but now maybe it's its right time.
00:33:44.680 I think people can look back and not be clouded by ideology.
00:33:48.540 And at the same time, we see that our allies, and we ourselves likely, will be enmeshed in the same kind of warfare in Gaza, in Ukraine, wherever.
00:33:58.400 I mean, not all war is like World War I and World War II.
00:34:01.620 Its most common warfare is this kind of counterinsurgency.
00:34:05.380 And as you say, Fallujah and Najaf are the biggest battles America has fought since Vietnam.
00:34:11.080 We owe it to the people who fought there to understand what happened and to tell their story.
00:34:16.560 And I'm really happy that it's going to be airing Veterans Day Eve on PBS at 10 p.m., 10 p.m., November 10th.
00:34:23.700 And the Marine Corps birthday.
00:34:25.820 Well, the 250th, I think what's the 250th birthday, the official birthday of the United States Marine Corps.
00:34:31.720 We're going to be doing stuff all day in that weekend to tee up for it.
00:34:34.740 But PBS has finally cried uncle and said they will give its first national airing at the 10 p.m. slot, which last night we told you about Bobby Kennedy's.
00:34:43.820 I think we're going to try to have the filmmaker from Bobby Kennedy's film from PBS Hicks on tonight to discuss that.
00:34:50.240 10 p.m. is kind of their primetime slot.
00:34:52.440 So they've given you quite a compliment.
00:34:53.920 They've given you the primetime slot on PBS for the 250th commemoration of the birthday of the United States Marine Corps.
00:35:02.000 However, we've actually you're doing something else that we're the war room is one of the parties to this.
00:35:08.000 I got Mo on and I want to make sure the people in the war room posse know this and know where they can go.
00:35:13.580 And so Mo can work with you on the 30th.
00:35:16.480 We're actually going to do a public screening.
00:35:18.220 And folks, if you have the opportunity to see this on a big screen, because it's a totally different experience than watching it on your device or watching on your TV.
00:35:28.160 It's over almost overwhelming, which is the point of the film of what these men went through.
00:35:34.920 Talk to me about what's going to happen on the 30th.
00:35:37.920 Well, it'll be the premier screening.
00:35:39.740 It'll be at the Navy Memorial in downtown D.C., a great setting for it, because, as you know, the Marines are part of the Navy.
00:35:47.060 And we'll have lots of people there, a lot of veterans, a lot of the people that are in the film really want to come.
00:35:54.360 You know, they you and I promised them it would be broadcast nationally.
00:35:58.420 And now, finally, it is your viewers and listeners can go to the this event bright link, which is special for the war room.
00:36:07.920 And the first hundred war room people will get a free ticket.
00:36:10.900 It's a screening and we'll have light refreshments.
00:36:13.480 We'll have some speakers.
00:36:15.500 You know, you and I will speak, Steve, and maybe we'll get some of these veterans and maybe a Trump veteran to speak.
00:36:21.820 And I think it's really, you know, as we get closer to Veterans Day, a really perfect way to honor people.
00:36:27.620 And I think it'll be a great event.
00:36:29.960 You know, there are.
00:36:30.940 It will be.
00:36:31.700 You know, there'll be a very mixed group of people there, not just war room types, but lots of different kinds of people.
00:36:37.120 People from PBS will be there.
00:36:38.540 So it'll be a really interesting event in itself.
00:36:42.540 And you're right.
00:36:43.700 I always wanted people to see it on the big screen.
00:36:46.920 You can even see from the trailer that a lot of this footage really needs to be seen in its in its fullness.
00:36:53.460 I mean, a lot of it is just complex footage with a lot going on in it.
00:36:56.880 And you can actually see the characters in the footage.
00:36:59.640 But if only blown up big, can you kind of see what they're doing?
00:37:03.020 So it's very important to see it on the screen.
00:37:05.540 I think it'll be a great event in and of itself.
00:37:07.660 We are happy to offer this special deal to war room fans, the war room posse.
00:37:13.880 Yeah.
00:37:15.960 So, Mo, we've got basically 100 tickets allocated.
00:37:20.120 Mo, where do they go?
00:37:21.400 And and then you'll make personal contact with us because we want to make sure it's a crowd that will appreciate this.
00:37:27.040 Like I said, this is to honor and it's really to honor the spirit of the Marine Corps.
00:37:32.240 And I think the men in this film would say that, that this is not about them.
00:37:38.200 In fact, the power of the film is that kind of unbroken chain of courage and valor and what they hold themselves up to.
00:37:46.580 They realize they're holding themselves up to the finest traditions of the Corps.
00:37:50.700 And you see some of these efforts they make, superhuman efforts from ordinary people.
00:37:56.320 The superhuman efforts are because of their their respect and reverence that the United States Marine Corps imbues into the actual devil dogs themselves.
00:38:07.780 And that's the power of the movie.
00:38:09.520 So, Mo, where do we go right now?
00:38:12.460 You're kind of my organizer on this.
00:38:15.320 We yes, we will allow.
00:38:17.480 As I say, I'm a naval officer.
00:38:18.940 But as people tell me, we're finally doing something about the men's department of the Navy, the United States Marine Corps, and we're going to put an army logistics officer in charge.
00:38:28.420 Mo, where do they go?
00:38:30.220 I mean, you know that it will be handled correctly if army logistics is in charge of it.
00:38:34.640 But you can go to eventbrite.com slash E slash last 600 meters premier war room tickets.
00:38:42.120 We will post the link as well so that everyone can find it.
00:38:47.100 But like Michael said, no matter how you feel about the Iraq war, we need to honor those that fought in it.
00:38:54.620 And this is a great way to do that.
00:38:56.620 I was able to see the last 600 meters back actually before I went to West Point.
00:39:02.540 So, while it was still in the process of being made and totally finalized, and it was a very transformative movie to me.
00:39:14.760 So, I highly encourage everyone if you're in the D.C. area to try and get tickets and get to that screening because it is an amazing movie.
00:39:23.900 And it truly honors those men that fought back in Iraq with the United States Marine Corps.
00:39:31.340 And no matter what branch of service you are, the Marines are amazing men and women now.
00:39:37.740 Amazing.
00:39:39.660 You mentioned something.
00:39:42.160 I don't want to bury the lead there.
00:39:43.560 Everybody in this film that you will see, and this is what inspired Mo and other people, and I was so proud of people like Mo and others that went to these academies during the war.
00:39:52.240 They're all volunteers.
00:39:54.020 There are no draftees here.
00:39:55.920 These men knew what they were getting into and volunteered.
00:40:00.620 That's courage.
00:40:01.980 That is courage when you know that this is going to be grimy.
00:40:05.160 And so, you've got the first battle of Fallujah, the battle of Najaf, the second battle of Fallujah.
00:40:10.120 And when you see these, understanding that 99% of the audience will say, well, hold it.
00:40:13.540 I don't even remember these battles.
00:40:14.600 You will see the most intense, large-scale battles that the Marine Corps really has had since, I think, Way City back during the Tet Offensive in Vietnam.
00:40:24.980 Michael Pack, where do people go to get all your information about everything you're working on?
00:40:29.820 Well, I should also say that we prefer to people go to Eventbrite, but if they actually can't find it, if they go to info at manifoldproductions.com, we'll be able to send them the Eventbrite link.
00:40:41.700 But it's two steps.
00:40:42.800 It's way easier to go to Eventbrite.
00:40:44.840 They want to find out about the rest of Manifold Productions stuff.
00:40:48.040 They need films.
00:40:49.440 They need to go to manifoldproductions.com.
00:40:52.000 And our more recent films are at palladiumpictures.com.
00:40:55.480 My Twitter is MichaelPack underscore, but I think there's more information on the website.
00:41:01.380 There's the Palladium website, and they can find out about work or even recommend someone to be in our incubator.
00:41:07.960 And, you know, so I think there's a lot there, including another film Steve and I worked on about Admiral Rickover and a bunch of other films, too.
00:41:16.560 One of my favorites, one of the greatest men of the 20th century, and a film with Tim Blake Nelson, Tim Blake Nelson, Tim Blake Nelson from Oh Brother, Where Art Thou, the comedy.
00:41:34.200 He absolutely plays a stunning Hyman Rickover.
00:41:37.900 It's really, it's a magnificent film, Michael.
00:41:40.180 Thank you so much, brother, for joining us.
00:41:41.880 Look forward to seeing you on the 30th.
00:41:43.960 Absolutely.
00:41:44.440 Thank you, Steve.
00:41:45.460 Thank you, Mo.
00:41:46.600 And I look forward to seeing you both on the 30th.
00:41:49.540 Captain Bannon, one more time, where do people go to find out about these tickets?
00:41:54.480 And they're free, so where do people go?
00:41:57.180 Eventbrite.com slash ease slash last 600 meters premiere war room tickets.
00:42:05.280 And we will post it so that there's no difficulties.
00:42:09.860 Yeah, that's complicated even for me.
00:42:12.020 By the way, Mo, you keep talking smack about the Army and your logistics.
00:42:16.180 You know, you might get recalled back to active duty under President Trump and, you know, go over to CENCOM and help because the entire 200 people associated with the United States military and CENCOM organizing this are all logistics folks, right?
00:42:30.340 Back to your natural calling, ma'am.
00:42:33.900 Well, CENCOM's headquartered very close by, so I'll do it in civilian capacity.
00:42:39.900 They don't need to recall me to active duty.
00:42:42.180 I'll be a civilian contractor.
00:42:44.660 No, no, no, no.
00:42:46.080 You're getting us forwarded to Doha.
00:42:47.640 Ma'am, thank you so much.
00:42:48.840 Appreciate you.
00:42:50.160 Thank you.
00:42:51.000 Mo Bannon.
00:42:52.640 The 30th of October.
00:42:54.260 Let's get as many of you folks there as possible.
00:42:56.620 It's going to be an incredible night.
00:42:58.440 Short commercial break.
00:43:00.660 Cultural nationalism.
00:43:01.800 Next in the war room.
00:43:03.900 If you're a homeowner, you need to listen to this.
00:43:06.680 In today's AI and cyber world, scammers are stealing home titles with more ease than ever, and your equity is the target.
00:43:15.560 Here's how it works.
00:43:16.740 Criminals forge your signature on one document.
00:43:19.320 Use a fake notary stamp.
00:43:21.100 Pay a small fee with your county, and boom, your home title has been transferred out of your name.
00:43:27.640 Then they take out loans using your equity or even sell your property.
00:43:31.700 You won't even know it's happened until you get a collection or foreclosure notice.
00:43:39.020 So let me ask you, when was the last time you personally checked your home title?
00:43:43.880 If you're like me, the answer is never, and that's exactly what scammers are counting on.

00:44:32.640 Birch Gold is bouncing around.
00:44:35.000 There's a little what we call profit-taking.
00:44:37.340 Make sure you understand it ain't the price, it's the process.
00:44:41.100 Make sure you understand the process, exactly what's happening throughout the world.
00:44:45.320 About gold as a hedge and now gold as a financial asset that the central banks are buying at record rates.
00:44:51.600 This is one of the reasons you've had a run-up and now a sell-off.
00:44:57.780 People are treating it as a financial asset.
00:44:59.740 We're returning to the 19th century when it comes out.
00:45:01.880 It ain't such an ancient relic after all, is it?
00:45:05.540 We're not here to tell you what to do.
00:45:07.060 We're here to show you how to think for yourself.
00:45:09.940 BirchGold.com, promo code Ben, and end of the dollar empire.
00:45:12.780 Remember, a lot of this is tied to the Chinese Communist Party and others trying to de-dollarization move throughout the world.
00:45:23.120 In fact, I think the Wall Street Journal actually has another story up today.
00:45:27.120 I'll pull it when we get a chance.
00:45:29.300 About the efforts to destroy the U.S. dollar as the prime reserve currency.
00:45:34.100 Does this all sound like Greek to you?
00:45:35.460 Go understand it.
00:45:38.120 Go to BirchGold.com, promo code Ben, and end of the dollar empire.
00:45:41.960 Seven free installments all the way going back, I don't know, we started this like four years ago.

00:45:49.220 Also, home title lock.
00:45:50.980 Make sure every dream you've ever had is in that home.
00:45:54.140 If you're lucky enough to own a home and if you're under 35 years old,
00:45:58.240 all likelihood you don't own one, don't have a chance to own one,
00:46:01.380 that's got to change.
00:46:03.000 It must change.
00:46:03.900 I think you'll see President Trump pivoting here pretty dramatically as he closed these wars down
00:46:09.020 and does these negotiations with the Chinese Communist Party
00:46:12.160 about stopping the economic warfare thereafter with the United States
00:46:17.420 to focus on affordability and getting some houses rolling here in the United States of America.
00:46:23.980 Every dream you've had is in that home.
00:46:26.860 The paper, the document, the instrument that says you own it is your title.
00:46:30.260 Make sure nobody can get their hands on it, ever.
00:46:32.140 Cyber, AI, rogue accountant, rogue lawyer, rogue relative, including maybe relatives
00:46:40.400 that are close to you, but go rogue.
00:46:43.420 HomeTitleLock.com, promo code Steve.
00:46:45.220 Talk to Natalie Dominguez and the team today.
00:46:48.440 Make sure your dream does not become your nightmare.
00:46:50.400 Do it today.
00:46:52.380 So, Thayer, I got you on here.
00:46:54.460 There's a lot going on in Ireland that you and I follow closely.
00:46:57.960 I'm going to get to that, but it's going to have to be in the second hour.
00:47:00.100 We've got a big announcement about artificial intelligence and artificial general intelligence
00:47:05.340 that's coming up at the top of the hour.
00:47:08.020 And our own Joe Allen will join us for that.
00:47:10.040 And we've also got a very special guest we're very honored to have.
00:47:14.180 But one of the issues clouding the suspecter of it is what's thrown in anybody's face
00:47:20.080 when they say, hey, we need to actually get a process so we know what's going on
00:47:23.760 with artificial intelligence in the rush to get to artificial general intelligence.
00:47:30.820 Because people say, well, we had a Sputnik moment, and they're clearly ahead.
00:47:37.000 I think it was Deep Seek, and we've got to combat that.
00:47:40.540 And I say, hang on for a second.
00:47:43.080 This is – when we deal with China and the Chinese Communist Party and Wall Street
00:47:46.640 and the corporatists and particularly Silicon Valley, throw that in your face,
00:47:49.920 there's a big caveat.
00:47:51.500 We supply the financing.
00:47:54.180 We supply the technology.
00:47:56.620 We supply the training.
00:47:57.480 We have 350,000 kids here every year getting advanced training and everything.
00:48:00.820 We've got guys in our national labs.
00:48:02.260 We have Chinese nationals all over the place and corporations.
00:48:06.400 It is – I'm not saying it's easy, but it's very doable to sit there and go, no,
00:48:11.480 we are not prepared to support you as you race for artificial general intelligence
00:48:15.700 to basically try to control not simply the world but all mankind.
00:48:20.980 Am I correct in that statement?
00:48:22.840 There are actions we could take today if we had the political will
00:48:26.420 and to force the political will on these out-of-control corporatists, oligarchs in Silicon Valley
00:48:32.220 and particularly the lords of easy money on Wall Street, sir.
00:48:36.100 Yes, Steve.
00:48:38.860 Thanks for calling attention to this issue.
00:48:41.480 It's so important to do so.
00:48:44.640 Look, first we need to recognize how important artificial intelligence is for Xi Jinping, right?
00:48:50.860 He's looking for artificial intelligence to save him, to save his economy because his economy is in the doldrums, right?
00:48:59.760 He's in recession.
00:49:01.220 So Xi and the party officials often speak of what they call the active deployment of a systemic strategy
00:49:10.400 centered on new quality production forces to reshape the global competitive landscape.
00:49:19.020 What does that mean?
00:49:20.040 That means that he's looking to seize and to dominate in artificial intelligence and some other related technologies
00:49:29.900 to save his economy, to save the party, to save his leadership,
00:49:37.260 and to give him the weapons that he's going to need to defeat the United States.
00:49:43.780 And so we need to recognize what Xi wants from this, and that explains his focus and his intensity
00:49:50.900 that the CCP have on artificial intelligence.
00:49:56.600 Secondly, what do we need to do?
00:49:58.820 Well, what we need to do is to cut them off from our brains, cut them off from our money,
00:50:04.220 cut them off from our technology and any type of exchanges.
00:50:08.900 So no chips, right?
00:50:11.340 No chips from NVIDIA or anyone else.
00:50:14.560 No students, as you mentioned, right, that STEM fields are dominated by Chinese students.
00:50:21.660 Chinese students run so many labs in American universities, and that has to be ended.
00:50:29.060 No technology, no investment.
00:50:32.060 Wall Street is still funding these guys, right?
00:50:34.860 You still have our money going into military-civil fusion, right, still going into these firms.
00:50:43.380 No exchanges, right, in terms of scientific exchanges in this area at all.
00:50:49.540 So we need to cut them off.
00:50:52.160 Thirdly, more investment, more focus, intensity on our side, right,
00:50:57.260 in terms of doing what we can to organize our response.
00:51:02.300 I don't think we can leave it to DARPA to handle this, right?
00:51:07.000 It's bigger.
00:51:07.600 Hang on a second, hang on a second.
00:51:10.580 It's bigger than DARPA and it's bigger than the weapons labs.
00:51:13.700 But I just want to reiterate, no chips, no dollars, no kids, no training over here,
00:51:23.820 no access to our brains, no access to our technology, no access to our country.
00:51:29.560 Don't sit there and throw in our face, oh gosh, you're going to kowtow the Chinese Communist Party.
00:51:35.360 We are about in this show and the leader of the movement to hard decouple from these criminals,
00:51:43.040 not make money with them, not make money in partnership with them.
00:51:46.680 If you want to stop artificial general intelligence and make sure we can have a rational human conversation about it,
00:51:52.820 you have to take the dictatorship that is the cruelest, most barbaric in the history of this planet.
00:52:00.520 And that's saying something.
00:52:01.560 When you go rack up some of the dictatorships you've had and no kings, crowd,
00:52:07.120 look at the Chinese Communist Party, the people that back so much of what you're doing.
00:52:11.580 You don't want artificial general intelligence, shut it down.
00:52:16.660 It can be shut down easily by shutting down any access of the communists to our technology and money.
00:52:24.140 Short break.
00:52:25.740 Okay, let's be honest.
00:52:26.760 You never thought it would get this far.
00:52:28.200 Maybe you missed the last IRS deadline or you haven't filed taxes in a while.
