Bannon's War Room - Episode 5403： Fight Is Just Starting In Texas The Threat In Our Backyard

00:00:00.000 President, Iran wants control of the strait over moves.

00:00:03.000 Would you accept a short-term deal that allows Iran and Oman

00:00:06.340 to control the strait?

00:00:07.600 And would they have to open it immediately?

00:00:09.340 Or would you be open to that happening over a period of time?

00:00:11.780 The strait's going to be open to everybody.

00:00:13.840 It's international waters.

00:00:17.020 Nobody's going to control it.

00:00:18.260 We're going to watch over it.

00:00:19.280 We'll watch over it.

00:00:20.160 But nobody's going to control it.

00:00:21.460 That's part of the negotiation that we have.

00:00:24.000 They would like to control it.

00:00:25.160 Nobody's going to control it.

00:00:26.260 It's international waters. 0.96

00:00:27.500 And Oman will behave just like everybody else, 1.00

00:00:30.600 so we'll have to blow them up. 1.00

00:00:32.680 They understand that. They'll be fine. 0.94

00:00:34.800 The whole economic system is broken down.

00:00:38.980 They thought they were going to outweigh me.

00:00:40.940 We'll outweigh him. He's got the midterms.

00:00:42.880 I don't care about the midterms.

00:00:44.040 Look what happened last night.

00:00:45.160 That was the prelude to the midterms.

00:00:47.760 People understand it.

00:00:48.720 They know that, very simple, Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon.

00:00:52.600 I'm doing that for the world.

00:00:53.720 I'm not doing it just for us.

00:00:55.260 On Iran, would you be comfortable with Russia or China taking their stockpile of highly enriched

00:01:00.080 uranium and have they offered to do that?

00:01:01.440 No, I wouldn't be comfortable.

00:01:03.740 That would not make me comfortable.

00:01:05.540 President Trump is rejecting Iran's latest bid to gain authority over the Strait of Hormuz.

00:01:10.640 Earlier today, Iranian state media reported on a draft memo that it claimed would give

00:01:15.080 Tehran and Oman control over the Strait as part of a deal to end the war.

00:01:19.620 State of the talks with Iran, I guess if it were a football field, what yard line would

00:01:24.180 you be on?

00:01:24.640 Well, I think we're doing very well.

00:01:26.440 They are starting to give us the things that they have to give us.

00:01:30.060 And if they do, that's great.

00:01:31.400 And if they won't, then the man on my left is going to finish him off.

00:01:35.220 We got paid millions of dollars for taking care of one man. 0.99

00:01:38.020 Total crook. 1.00

00:01:39.040 They're all crooks. 1.00

00:01:41.120 The Somalians, what they've done to Minnesota, the Somalians, 1.00

00:01:46.000 crooked as hell. 1.00

00:01:48.060 Ilhan Omar, crooked as hell. 1.00

00:01:50.040 They're all crooks. 1.00

00:01:51.660 And we got them. 1.00

00:01:52.760 We got them.

00:01:53.380 now we're putting the clamps on but boy i tell you that's an impressive group of

00:01:57.620 guys that you have behind you i was watching that and a couple of very strong women too

00:02:02.980 but i was watching that last night i said i'm proud of you guys

00:02:06.580 is the u.s considering easing sanctions on iran to allow iran to sell its crew to market no we're

00:02:12.180 not talking about any easing of sanctions or giving money no sanctions no money no nothing

00:02:17.300 uh we have control of money that they claim is theirs we'll keep control of that money when they

00:02:26.280 behave properly and when they do what's right we'll let them have their money but right now

00:02:30.940 we're not doing that and it's not one thing is not contingent on the other do these accusations

00:02:36.720 of corruption resonate with republican voters with texas voters generally well obviously yesterday

00:02:43.380 it worked out well for Paxton. But he has tremendous resonance with that MAGA base

00:02:52.340 within the Republican Party. There's another base within the Republican Party. They're of

00:02:57.580 longstanding sort of establishment Republicans who I think are less enamored with him. They were

00:03:02.820 the Cornyn Republicans. And with independents, his numbers are very, very bad. So, you know,

00:03:09.740 you said at the beginning that Democrats were, they got the guy they wanted. There are two groups

00:03:16.800 that got the guy they wanted, if you consider the president a group, him and Democrats. I think

00:03:22.000 there are a lot of Republicans who are deeply concerned about this. They think they can win

00:03:26.380 because Texas is Texas, but they expect they're going to have to spend a fortune to try and do

00:03:31.080 it because he's such a heavy lift. Wednesday, 27 May in the year of our Lord, 2026, you saw

00:03:39.680 right there more than misinformation paxton had this historic victory with about 15 million bucks

00:03:45.880 with 150 spent against him to destroy him and the grassroots movement remember that

00:03:50.800 we call for accountability on this uh and and and cornyn in his vicious self

00:03:58.520 continued to authorize the personal attacks at ads all the way up to the beginning he knew

00:04:04.640 he was losing a week or so prior

00:04:09.480 and losing badly a week or so prior

00:04:11.940 to President Trump stepping in.

00:04:14.580 I think the polling was 8 to 12,

00:04:17.220 somewhere in that range.

00:04:19.480 And pretty consistent, I think, around 10 or 11.

00:04:23.680 President Trump came in, of course,

00:04:25.400 closed the deal.

00:04:27.060 He lost by 30.

00:04:28.860 But he continued to get,

00:04:30.580 he continued to get this mantra,

00:04:32.780 it's going to cost some fortune.

00:04:33.680 Now, I'm not so sure. And I think it's going to be a three to five point plus blowout of Tallarica.

00:04:41.220 The reason is he's a he's a freak. They get they get enamored with what they think in Texas working.

00:04:47.400 You know, it's first of all is going to be a work and then it's going to be already the football player.

00:04:51.680 And then, you know, now they're going to try the left wing seminarian.

00:04:55.580 um but the cornyn situation shows you the republican establishment texas had a shattering

00:05:03.400 blow a shattering blow we get to uh tammy brown uh rodriguez in a moment the chairman of the

00:05:11.860 dallas county republican party and one of the grassroots leaders down there

00:05:16.360 um helping to turn around the dallas county um also you saw the president the bid and the asked

00:05:23.040 this is why we continue to try to update you with various experts and analysts in this iran war

00:05:30.700 if you had a chance to watch and i'm so glad once again at real america's voice war room we play the

00:05:37.960 thing its entirety only fox played it only fox played the cabinet actually the public part of

00:05:43.980 the cabinet meeting with president trump going around the table and then the q a with the

00:05:48.500 reporters, MSNBC and CNN, would only cut in for the snarkiest of the questions and the responses.

00:05:56.940 You saw there, there's such a difference between what President Trump is saying that he's doing

00:06:02.340 with the Iranians and what the media is saying he's doing. He was pretty adamant about a couple

00:06:07.280 parts of this deal that are supposed to be, you know, already conceded to or agreed to,

00:06:13.260 not not not happening according to him hey not happening not being discussed and

00:06:19.300 put out on oman and oman is a a country right there at the uh at the tip of kind of uh the

00:06:28.520 saudi peninsula and where uae is that's really makes up one side kind of this side of the

00:06:34.920 the the gulf emirates the arab side of the persian gulf in the strait of hormuz

00:06:40.300 the uh Iranians and the Persians on the other side he said hey if they get out of line I'm 1.00

00:06:45.660 gonna bomb them talking about working to close the uh to close the channel to close the Strait 1.00

00:06:51.300 of Hormuz he's just not putting up with it and I think it's a breath of fresh air particularly 0.99

00:06:57.060 talking about uh you know all this back and forth and who you know are the Pakistanis doing this 0.92

00:07:01.800 are the Gulf Emirates doing something who are the Persians talking to it was refreshing today

00:07:09.480 I hear the president so blunt in talking about what's going on.

00:07:13.320 Let's go to Tammy Brown Rodriguez about the historic epic win last night of Ken Paxton.

00:07:21.580 Tammy, tell me, just put in a word.

00:07:23.280 You're one of the grassroots leaders and you've worked so hard on this.

00:07:26.600 Give us your assessment or observations about this 30-point blowout when nobody,

00:07:30.340 I mean, the whole lazy Washington media is absolutely blown away by this.

00:07:34.500 What are your observations on it, ma'am?

00:07:36.140 Oh, it was spectacular. We have spent so much time and talent and treasure working through

00:07:48.040 these elections, and especially in Dallas County. In Dallas County, we turned out like

00:07:53.720 rock stars. We had an epic turnout, far more so than we did in 2022, and it shows.

00:08:03.640 It absolutely shows. In fact, in early voting, we had we beat the Democrats in turnout three out of the five days in early voting.

00:08:12.580 And that's unheard of here in Dallas County.

00:08:16.320 Yeah, you know, Dallas, I think Dallas and Travis, where Austin is only two counties, along with Kennedy, which has like nine people voting down there on the Gulf of America, are the only two.

00:08:28.420 Those are the two big ones we lost. But the spreads were very small.

00:08:33.620 He had to carry those in big numbers. And you guys able to close that down.

00:08:39.380 What did it take? Why were you able to turn out this vote for Ken Paxton, particularly given all the money that Cornett spent and particularly in Dallas?

00:08:47.440 He needed he needed really huge numbers in Dallas to overcome some of the rural communities.

00:08:53.320 How did you guys actually get the vote out for Paxton?

00:08:55.540 You know, a couple of key things is that we have got to modernize.

00:09:03.180 And historically, Dallas County has not done well in that area.

00:09:07.100 And so we had texting campaigns.

00:09:09.420 We mobilized our precinct chairs.

00:09:12.100 We ensured that we had lots of communication.

00:09:15.500 And I think the other thing that was really helpful is that we had a separate primary.

00:09:20.880 And so every location that we had judges at, we had Republican judges and Republican clerks, which increased voter security, voter secure thoughts and information on feeling like their vote's going to matter.

00:09:40.080 Because when they went to the voting booth, it was a Republican judge and Republican clerks that were serving Republicans, just as it should be.

00:09:50.880 how was that was that do you recruit specifically for that did you realize that was going to be an

00:09:57.060 issue because i know you know melissa katz and some other people are judges and and they do a

00:10:02.080 lot of training did you guys realize early on that was going to be an issue and that if you

00:10:06.120 wanted to have really strong turnout you had to make sure people their votes were secure so you

00:10:10.640 actually recruited folks to be judges uh and to be recorders and then you trained them all

00:10:16.580 Oh, yeah, this is a Herculean effort. And I have a fantastic team here in Dallas County that works the elections. And we had to recruit a judge and multiple clerks per location. And on election day, it was like 280 some locations. And so it was a big, big effort.

00:10:37.300 But when you train them well, and you've got really good organization skills, it was very smooth, very, very smooth.

00:10:44.600 Unlike other elections where there was a lot of drama around the machines, there were lots of drama in other areas, this one went really well.

00:10:55.460 And as the Republican chairwoman, I worked directly with the election administrator, and we got some things done at Central Count.

00:11:03.440 that's where all the votes go back to right that has not yet been done in dallas county

00:11:08.420 to secure our elections so how did somebody inside of the um go ahead uh how did you get

00:11:19.240 but how did you recruit these people when in particularly in dallas because we were up in

00:11:23.580 north of dallas for a couple of months in the tv ads on local news cable every night just the

00:11:30.380 Recording negative ads against Ken Paxson were unbelievable.

00:11:35.040 They were vicious, and there was just so much of them.

00:11:37.180 How did you go out and recruit people given the amount of negative ads that were out there?

00:11:43.460 You know, because we have seriously committed precinct chairs and committed volunteers, because all this is volunteer work, right?

00:11:51.100 The people that are recruiting our election judges, it's a volunteer team.

00:11:56.560 and they run our election integrity committee here in Dallas County. And they just went to

00:12:02.880 work calling everybody they knew. We did lots of email campaigns, lots of texting campaigns.

00:12:08.720 We had great trainings at the Dallas County Republican Party, in addition to the trainings

00:12:13.540 that were down at the Dallas County Election Department. And it's really with passion that we

00:12:20.500 love our county. We love our state. And we all know that as goes Texas, as goes this nation,

00:12:26.560 and we were literally at a tipping point. This was it for us. We fought so hard to make sure

00:12:32.180 that we had separate primaries. That is a huge key that we used to do all the time.

00:12:39.660 And that has changed over the last 10 years. And we want to ensure that Republicans feel good

00:12:45.240 about showing up at the polls. Tell me about Tallarico. They are saying that it's going to

00:12:51.540 cost hundreds of millions of dollars. This is a huge mistake. You've got a very flawed candidate.

00:12:56.020 Talk to me about your assessment of Tallarico in the general election.

00:13:01.600 Tallarico? He's crazy. 0.97

00:13:04.980 I was behind Ken Paxton the entire time. 0.71

00:13:09.660 Ken has done some great things for Texas.

00:13:12.280 I'm in the anti-human trafficking space for my real job.

00:13:14.980 I'm a CEO of Untrafficked.

00:13:17.860 And so any time that we can partner with Ken Paxton as he protected kids,

00:13:22.980 as he protected women here in Texas, we're going to back Ken. And so for me personally,

00:13:31.160 I don't think it's going to be as tough as the media is trying to tell us it's going to be to

00:13:37.580 get Ken Paxson over the finish line. I think people are tired of people trying to co-op Texas

00:13:43.860 with these crazy extremists from the other side. To your point, the betas of the world,

00:13:51.900 It's not going to work.

00:13:53.400 It's not going to bode well for them.

00:13:55.580 And I think Texans are just so ready for great representation in D.C.

00:14:00.520 It's time.

00:14:03.200 Amazing.

00:14:03.920 Tammy Brown Rodriguez, social media and where they go to your website to find out about trafficking and about Dallas County Republicans, ma'am.

00:14:12.400 Yes.

00:14:12.920 So you can certainly go to my socials, which is real TBR underscore TX, real TBR underscore TX.

00:14:22.920 You can also go to find out more about the Dallas County Republican Party at dallasgop.org.

00:14:31.460 Find out all kinds of information, how you can get involved.

00:14:35.700 And finally, if you're interested in helping to protect the most vulnerable and you want to find out more information about how you, too, can protect our kids, go to untrafficked.org, untrafficked.org.

00:14:47.820 And, Steve, thank you so much for having me.

00:14:49.180 I really appreciate your time today.

00:14:51.280 No, Tammy, thank you.

00:14:52.860 Great.

00:14:53.360 Great job done in Dallas County.

00:14:54.980 Amazing.

00:14:55.700 This is the type of grassroots leaders that brought the victory in Dallas.

00:14:59.880 The dollar's convertibility into gold ended in 1971.

00:15:03.820 Gold was fixed at $35 an ounce.

00:15:07.740 Well, fast forward to today, and the U.S. dollar has lost over 85% of its purchasing power.

00:15:14.640 Gold, on the other hand, is increased in value by over 12,000%.

00:15:19.280 That's why central banks are buying gold at record levels.

00:15:23.180 That's why major firms like Vanguard and BlackRock hold significant positions in gold.

00:15:28.840 And that's why I encourage you to consider diversifying your savings with physical gold from Birch Gold Group.

00:15:36.880 But it starts with education.

00:15:38.640 Birch Gold just announced their Learn and Earn Precious Metals event.

00:15:43.220 This free online event rewards you for learning the basics of investing in precious metals.

00:15:48.040 Sign up to get a free silver on your next purchase.

00:15:51.620 Get even larger incentives as you go.

00:15:54.280 The more you learn, the more you can earn.

00:15:56.560 But you must act now, as this special event only runs through April 30th.

00:16:02.300 The dollar lost its anchor in 1971.

00:16:06.360 You don't have to lose yours.

00:16:08.680 Text my name, Bannon, B-A-N-N-O-N, to the number 989898 to join Birch Gold's Learn and Earn Precious Metals event by April 30th.

00:16:18.980 Text Bannon, B-A-N-N-O-N, to 989898 and do it today.

00:16:24.480 Do you think the U.S. currently has enough leverage to keep Iran from pursuing its ambitions with this Persian Gulf Strait authority and its desire to control traffic through the Strait of Hormuz long term? 0.55

00:16:40.300 No. Frankly, the Iranians have controlled the traffic through the Strait of Hormuz since February 28th when we started this war. 0.91

00:16:48.380 And predictably, the response to that war was for them to close the strait. 0.95

00:16:52.940 As long as Iran is geographically located where it is, which is right around the strait, 0.88

00:16:58.140 it will have the capacity to attack shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. 0.59

00:17:02.800 Unless and until the United States decide to end its capacity to do so through military force, 0.90

00:17:09.360 which requires the occupation of large swaths of Iran, Iran is going to have the capability to do this. 0.92

00:17:14.740 So the president can say the strait is open. 0.99

00:17:16.840 The president can say that international waters are international waters. 0.98

00:17:20.960 The Iranians have a different idea. 1.00

00:17:22.940 And so far, they've been able to dictate the terms. 0.97

00:17:26.460 How about nuclear concessions?

00:17:28.580 I mean, if the U.S. were to lift the blockade, as this memorandum suggests,

00:17:33.400 does the U.S. have enough leverage to get into this negotiation specific details

00:17:39.960 on what Iran is going to do with either uranium that's already been enriched

00:17:43.960 or that they perhaps could enrich in the future?

00:17:46.840 we'll have to see i mean so far the answer to that again is no all the reporting suggests that

00:17:56.100 the memorandum they're negotiating does not address the nuclear issue it may let

00:18:00.440 lay down some parameters of what a nuclear negotiation one day may look like but the

00:18:07.100 secretary of state marco rubio said the other day you don't negotiate the end of the iranian

00:18:12.160 nuclear program in 72 hours on the back of a napkin. He's absolutely right. It took the Obama 1.00

00:18:17.300 administration 16 months. It took the Europeans starting in 2003 to negotiate an agreement that

00:18:24.380 was finally signed in 2015. And foolishly, the president walked away. And I think it's very

00:18:29.240 important to underscore if the Iranian nuclear deal, the so-called JCPOA that was negotiated in

00:18:36.560 2015 had been in force today, Iran would not have had more than 300 kilograms of uranium enriched

00:18:44.780 to 3.67%. Today, Iran has 8,500 kilograms of enriched uranium, much of it enriched,

00:18:53.680 some of it to 60%, other parts to 20%, and sufficient material to make, if they have the

00:19:02.440 time, not just 11, but perhaps 100 bombs. That's the situation that President Trump created.

00:19:10.920 Trump did not create that. This also shows you that they're maniacally focused on the bomb.

00:19:15.840 I think it's a big gap between what President Trump said today in the Oval and whatever's in

00:19:23.640 this memorandum that they're supposedly negotiating. I thought President Trump took very

00:19:28.080 firm stances on a number of the key issues, including the Strait of Hormuz is a, in the

00:19:35.720 Persian Gulf is an international waterway, and particularly the Strait of Hormuz, there's not

00:19:40.620 going to be any Persian Gulf maritime authority that goes, that, that monitors and, and handles

00:19:49.120 shipping. So the, I know his closest advisors and the Secretary of War, Secretary of State

00:19:56.460 slash national security advisor, the Secretary of Treasury,

00:20:00.660 others, joint chiefs of staff,

00:20:02.520 are working through the next couple of days

00:20:03.960 to maybe sharpen this a bit.

00:20:06.180 I think it's good that Marco's back

00:20:07.920 because I don't think this is going to be quick.

00:20:12.480 I think the president realized it's not going to happen quickly. 0.99

00:20:14.580 Number one, the Persians have a negotiating style 1.00

00:20:17.420 that tend to drag things out. 1.00

00:20:19.360 He might have to.

00:20:20.080 He said if he has to increase economic warfare,

00:20:24.960 If he has to go kinetic again, they're drawing up different target sets.

00:20:30.040 Some are for additional military targets and industrial-based targets.

00:20:35.560 Others, quote-unquote, some that are hard to get to.

00:20:38.860 Also, they're looking at basically their infrastructure also.

00:20:42.300 So the military has a wide range of options here.

00:20:45.400 And so I would stay tuned in this space.

00:20:47.000 But I think hearing it from the president is always best.

00:20:50.080 And that's why I love it when he does those cabinet meetings.

00:20:53.540 and he goes around the table, they talk, get up to date,

00:20:57.720 and then he takes any and all questions from the media,

00:21:00.540 which I think he handles very straightforwardly.

00:21:02.860 Clearly, the interest of the America First and the MAGA movement

00:21:06.900 is to wrap this thing up, get an off-ramp, wrap this up,

00:21:10.620 make sure they can't get a nuclear weapon,

00:21:12.780 figure out a deal that parties can live with,

00:21:16.960 and then come back here to hemispheric defense.

00:21:19.380 lost in all the avalanche of news yesterday, including the race in Texas, what was going on

00:21:26.600 with these deals, etc. The Flavio Bolsonaro went to the Oval Office. Remember, Lula was there

00:21:35.660 about two or three weeks ago. We covered that extensively. And as we said, that meeting did not

00:21:41.680 go well. Lula, they didn't invite the press in. Lula kind of changed up the order of battle

00:21:47.700 So afterwards, after he kind of just left the White House, I think unexpectedly or quickly, he goes back to the to the Brazilian.

00:21:57.920 Remember, we had Neal McCabe outside right with all the international media, the Brazilian media.

00:22:02.920 They just kind of packed up. They got the word. They packed up.

00:22:05.180 They headed over to the Brazilian embassy, I think it was.

00:22:07.960 And Lula gave a press conference there, didn't have a joint event with the president, didn't make himself available to the White House media.

00:22:15.320 We had our reporter there with a list of questions, went back and gave an interview at the Brazilian embassy and was not quite a complimentary of the president, particularly regarding the Iranian war.

00:22:28.640 I don't think that sat very well with the president of the United States.

00:22:32.340 Flavio, who is leading Bolsonaro in the polls, although everything is very close down there on the presidential election they're having this fall, came yesterday.

00:22:42.680 And there's some great photos if we can put those up.

00:22:45.740 We've got Alan Doss Santos here to explain it all to us.

00:22:48.500 Can you give us how did this get set up?

00:22:52.460 It's quite extraordinary not that you have heads of state, although even the Lula meeting was not a head of state.

00:22:58.100 They said he came. It was on a personal meeting with the president because we cover all these.

00:23:02.720 There were no flags. He came to a different entrance.

00:23:06.560 It was very low keyed about his entrance and his exit.

00:23:09.160 In fact, he kind of left when nobody knew it. So it wasn't an official state visit.

00:23:12.220 He wasn't, they didn't offer up to stay in the Blair House.

00:23:16.320 It was a personal visit, but I know it didn't sit well with a lot of people.

00:23:20.020 What happened that day?

00:23:21.040 How did this come about that Bolsonaro was invited to come up, sir?

00:23:28.180 Siv Beno, thank you so much for having me on your show.

00:23:30.940 It's good to clarify, first of all, that what you just said, the White House invited Flávio

00:23:37.280 Bolsonaro, because the media in the United States and in Brazil, they are saying that

00:23:42.380 Flavio Bolsonaro invited himself to be received by Trump.

00:23:48.660 But it's a totally lie.

00:23:50.840 I'm a witness that the Secretary of State was in touch with the Senator, Flavio Bolsonaro.

00:23:58.580 And it's good to remember that since last year, as a senator, he was working together

00:24:05.180 with the Secretary of State and the governor of Rio de Janeiro in Brazil to classify PCC

00:24:12.240 and the CV as a terrorist group.

00:24:15.760 So this invitation, it's probably connected to this matter, which is urgent in South America

00:24:22.980 right now, because all these drug cartels, they are not operating just selling drugs.

00:24:28.160 They are terrorist groups, and Flávio Bolsonaro was invited because Trump probably couldn't

00:24:35.300 see any answer from Lula da Silva.

00:24:38.100 I know that Lula would never give an answer about what to do with the drug cartel in Brazil,

00:24:45.100 because Lula is, as president right now in Brazil, because he was helped by this drug

00:24:52.380 cartel, and that's why Flávio Bolsonaro is in there to solve this problem in South America.

00:24:58.300 But, Alan, hang on for a second.

00:24:59.680 I want to go back to something you just said that's very important.

00:25:02.480 And, folks, we deal with this a lot because obviously we monitor what's going on in Brazil.

00:25:05.800 We're huge supporters of the Bolsonaro family.

00:25:08.880 But the media down there is so one-sided.

00:25:12.160 If people think the United States media is bad, you ain't seen nothing.

00:25:15.100 In Brazil, they're actually making the case that Flapio invited himself.

00:25:20.180 That's not the way the White House works.

00:25:22.340 You don't invite yourself and you show up.

00:25:24.240 You have to have an invitation from the secretary of state and the president to come.

00:25:28.260 And that was a and here's what's so important.

00:25:31.300 The last couple of days have just been intense, not just with what was going on in Texas, what's going on in the Senate.

00:25:37.960 The president had the entire day he was doing on Monday, doing the Memorial Day activity for our honored dead.

00:25:44.320 But also in Iran, there's so many developments happening in the war as he's trying to negotiate a deal.

00:25:50.040 So it's absurd to think that Flavio invited himself when he showed up.

00:25:55.060 But the media down there is trying to spin it that way.

00:25:57.640 This was an invitation from the Secretary of State and the President of the United States to come to the White House.

00:26:02.580 And yes, I'm sure they talked about those two terrorist organizations who Lula, you know, unfortunately looks like he's in business with some of these guys.

00:26:09.860 But no, this was a formal invitation.

00:26:12.400 And I know the Secretary of State and the President really enjoyed seeing him, sir.

00:26:16.340 There is an influencer that was arrested a few days ago.

00:26:22.080 Her name is Deolani Bezerra.

00:26:24.620 And he was arrested.

00:26:25.740 She was arrested because she is working with the head of the PCC.

00:26:31.640 And guess who was supporting Lula in recording videos during Lula's campaign, calling him Papa, Daddy.

00:26:39.720 So that woman that was arrested, connected to the PCC, the drug cartel PCC,

00:26:46.340 She is a Lula supporter, openly Lula supporter, and the media did not say a word after her arrest.

00:26:54.340 And this is what's going on in Brazil, Steve.

00:26:58.900 Sadly, in north of Brazil, in the state of Ceará, we have human corpse being cutted out

00:27:07.700 and thrown in the seas, in the oceans.

00:27:10.740 and people are swimming and suddenly they see pieces of human corpse, human bodies.

00:27:17.460 This is how the drug cartel is operating in Brazil. It is a terrorist group and Flavio did

00:27:24.420 not invite himself. As you said, that's not possible here in the United States. They are

00:27:28.180 confusing countries. They think that the White House now is where Lula lives in Brasilia right

00:27:34.740 now so yeah that's how i assume they are confusing countries uh and what flavio bolsonaro

00:27:43.060 uh wants for brazil it's not become a president it's not about i tell you what hey hey hey

00:27:49.300 alan hang on one second i want to give you plenty of runway after the commercial break i'm going to

00:27:53.620 talk about this in depth more particularly also these terrorist groups uh with the secretary of

00:27:58.740 State National Security Advisor.

00:28:01.280 Rubio is doing his heroic

00:28:02.720 work with Flavio and

00:28:04.760 others in Brazil. Remember,

00:28:07.620 hemispheric defense,

00:28:10.000 one of the big pivots

00:28:10.840 around that is not just South

00:28:12.700 America, but it's also our friendship

00:28:14.720 and partnership with Brazil.

00:28:16.660 Short commercial break. We're going to turn in the war room in just

00:28:18.780 a moment.

00:28:23.060 War Room. Here's

00:28:24.820 your host, Stephen K.

00:28:26.380 that.

00:28:29.100 Philip Patrick is going to join us tomorrow night. We're going to talk about the turbulence

00:28:32.220 in capital markets, the bond market. Also, we're going to talk about physical gold.

00:28:37.440 Gold is a hedge, all of it. You can get information on that. There's two ways. One is

00:28:43.280 quite simple, or they're both simple, but this is a very quick and dirty. It is take your phone

00:28:49.140 and a text Bannon, B-A-N-N-O-N at 989898. You get the ultimate guide for investing in gold and

00:28:55.520 precious metals in the age of Trump. No obligation, totally free. All the information from Birch Gold

00:29:02.300 is with no obligation. You get that. You get access to Philip Patrick. You can walk through

00:29:12.440 for first-time purchasers and investors, possibility with a qualifying purchase that

00:29:17.940 you can get rebates up to $10,000, but you got to talk to Philip Patrick and his team all about

00:29:23.580 that. It's not a reason to buy gold, but it might be a nice reason if you believe it's time to a

00:29:29.620 nice reason, a nice incentive to think about it. Also, the end of the dollar empire, we started

00:29:34.580 five years ago. Part of it, as you remember, we sent the team from Birch Gold down to the Rio

00:29:40.820 Reset, which was, wait for it, Lula. He always turns up, doesn't he? Not a friend of the United

00:29:48.100 States. Remember we had Philip Patrick and the team down there live and they were saying, hey,

00:29:52.360 What the BRICS nations were doing, led by Lula and working with the Chinese Communist Party, who is Lula's partner, they were trying to make sure that they could try to break the dollar, particularly the petrodollar.

00:30:04.740 And what they were doing is sidebar deals, you know, direct bilat trade deals that would be settled in the currency of the country, not the U.S. dollar, as a potential to weaken the U.S. dollar as the prime reserve currency.

00:30:18.340 You can understand that and learn all about it in The End of the Dollar Empire.

00:30:22.420 That's birchgold.com slash Bannon.

00:30:33.980 But you can get it for free.

00:30:37.700 Alan Doss, I want you to continue on.

00:30:39.920 But I do want to say, you know, even when we talk about, you know, every time there's

00:30:44.740 a a element whether it's cartels whether it's problems down in uh south america whether it's

00:30:52.500 the u.s dollar and his the leadership he tries to put into the brics nations lula is always there

00:30:59.720 against the united states where the united states has its vital national security interest the

00:31:05.380 interest of the country lula always pops up one of the reasons we spend so much time over the years

00:31:11.020 and I've spent so much time about Brazil, about the Bolsonaros.

00:31:14.760 Jair Bolsonaro is a hero on a global scale, right?

00:31:18.940 This is why Lula's got him in prison.

00:31:20.560 They did to Bolsonaro exactly what they were trying to do to Trump.

00:31:24.040 They look at them as the same.

00:31:26.700 And Bolsonaro has just been such a hero.

00:31:29.240 Anytime you see trouble brewing, popping up,

00:31:33.560 Lula somehow seems to have his hands around that.

00:31:36.820 He is an enemy of this country flat out.

00:31:38.960 He's a Marxist.

00:31:39.760 He's been a partner of the Chinese Communist Party from the beginning.

00:31:42.380 It's one of the reasons we focus so much on Brazil and on Lula.

00:31:46.660 Here's the reason.

00:31:48.160 The hemispheric defense of President Trump, which is a brilliant geoeconomic and geostrategic strategy,

00:31:53.820 going from the Arctic and Greenland all the way down to Cuba and the Gulf of America and the Caribbean,

00:32:00.480 and then Central America and South America, all the way out to the vast Pacific,

00:32:04.140 to the three island chain as our 19th century giants that ran this country understood that

00:32:10.720 the strategic pivot of the united states the strategic border of the united states

00:32:14.340 are american underlying american territories in the western pacific in the central pacific

00:32:23.400 that is the hemispheric defense of our country and things change when that happens and it won't 0.52

00:32:29.960 change while Lula's in our backyard. Brother Alan dos Santos, the floor is yours, sir. 0.87

00:32:39.180 So I was saying, Steve, that Flávio Bolsonaro is not facing this situation as a regular election.

00:32:47.340 He is trying to save his country. His dad is not arrested. He was kidnapped by state,

00:32:54.540 by the government, because there is no law that could put Bolsonaro in jail.

00:32:59.280 They accused Bolsonaro as a coup d'etat, but Bolsonaro was in Orlando, in Florida, where I live

00:33:06.960 right now. So he was here. How can you do a coup d'etat visiting Mickey Mouse? So this is so

00:33:13.560 ridiculous. This sounds ridiculous, but it's serious. Flavio is trying to save the country 0.98

00:33:19.160 Because the drug cartel can easily corrupt judges and they can be released easily while a lot of people are in exile, including Eduardo Bolsonaro here in the United States.

00:33:31.040 So it's a very dangerous situation for Brazil, because if we do not take Lula out, we're going to be a target of all three countries.

00:33:40.780 Argentina is willing to fight all this drug cartel.

00:33:45.220 El Salvador is willing to fight this drug cartel.

00:33:49.000 José Antonio Casas on Chile is willing to fight against these drug cartels as a terrorist group.

00:33:54.740 The United States wants it.

00:33:56.560 Even Venezuela probably will fight the drug cartel since Maduro is out.

00:34:01.280 And Brazil with Lula and Colombia with Petro, they want to protect these groups with all their blood.

00:34:09.240 You know, they want to protect them as they were twins.

00:34:13.040 And I do believe they are twins.

00:34:14.740 But they are fighting strongly not for the people.

00:34:17.580 But for these drug cartels, which helps a lot of the globalist agenda, and you said very well, Bolsonaro is the enemy of this globalist agenda.

00:34:29.440 And Lula is being helped not by the United States, but the globalists, which are here in the United States.

00:34:37.080 Lula is a friend of all radicals Democrats you ever imagined.

00:34:42.000 Imagine the worst Democrat you have here in the United States.

00:34:47.580 He's very tied to Lula.

00:34:52.600 Talk to me about, I just want to make sure we understand this

00:34:55.060 and you explain to our audience,

00:34:56.280 they're two different of these drug cartels.

00:34:59.240 They've got kind of the same initial.

00:35:00.600 Can you just explain the difference in both?

00:35:03.040 Because I think it's incumbent upon us

00:35:05.160 to get both of them designated as terrorist organizations.

00:35:07.820 Can you explain them?

00:35:09.240 And then can you explain the one that Lula has ties to?

00:35:12.440 So, the CV is for the Portuguese words, Comando Vermelho, it's like a Red Commander.

00:35:21.200 They were created right after the military regime that we used to have in Brazil.

00:35:30.160 So once leftists and criminals were in jail, they created this group called the CV, the 0.53

00:35:37.680 Red Commander. And the PCC was created right after Lula created the São Paulo Forum. Both of them

00:35:45.360 were created by leftists, by Marxists. They use all the leftist words that people are using to

00:35:53.780 use, unfortunately, in schools right now. They're using about these guys, these criminals, saying

00:36:00.500 we have human rights, we want justice, we want fair justice, and so forth.

00:36:07.540 So all these two different drug cartels, they were created by the leftists.

00:36:14.860 And then, since they grew in the country, they spread in the whole country,

00:36:21.080 the PCC, which was created in Sao Paulo, it is way more well-organized.

00:36:28.320 50% of the cocaine in Europe is being sent by the PCC through Brazil. 0.64

00:36:38.440 And the Red Commander controls more Rio de Janeiro in the north of the country, northeast of the country, northeast. 0.87

00:36:48.760 And the difference between them is just how they operate. 0.91

00:36:53.060 PCC is more organized, but both of them are connected to FARC, the F-A-R-C in Colombia. 0.61

00:37:02.780 They are fed by the Iranian regime, and they are connected to the Chinese too. 0.86

00:37:09.160 So it is complicated to use the law against them because in Brazil, we do not have a death penalty, for example. 0.93

00:37:20.260 people in Brazil can just stay in jail for 40 years.

00:37:23.980 And if you behave well, you read books and so forth,

00:37:26.940 you can leave the jail in 10, 15, or maximum 20 years.

00:37:32.740 So it's hard to fight against these drug cartels

00:37:35.620 because they can easily live inside the prison

00:37:39.020 and still control all the cocaine in the whole country.

00:37:46.220 And our security system is not that strong.

00:37:49.440 So all the criminals, they can use phone inside the prison.

00:37:53.840 It's not like here in the United States.

00:37:56.360 And they can easily buy judges and even cops close to the prison in a matter of creating companies, do money laundry through these companies, using influencers.

00:38:14.200 And it's hard to catch them in their crime.

00:38:17.340 Right now, for example, there is an investigation in Brazil, which puts the PCC, which is this group, it is connected to Deolane Bezerra, as said in the beginning of the show, she was supporting Lula and recording videos with Lula.

00:38:34.640 She was arrested a few days ago in Italy by Interpol.

00:38:41.860 Yeah, an influencer.

00:38:42.680 Yes. And she's working with Marcola, which is the head of the PCC. And Lula is connected with them.

00:38:53.340 Hang on. Get the audience up to date in that regard to the election that's coming up this fall. It's Lula versus Flavio. Where do we stand right now? I understand Flavio was leading in the polling a couple of weeks ago.

00:39:12.680 Yeah, Flavio was leading all the polls or technically a draw, but this is the first time they don't say Flavio is far away from winning.

00:39:27.760 This is the first time they say a right-wing candidate is close to win.

00:39:32.860 So for us, Brazilians, we see these polls and say, OK, if they are saying we are leading or close draw, I do believe he's winning by far.

00:39:43.460 Because all these companies in Brazil that they make these researches and polls, they are also connected with all the groups that are supported by Lula.

00:39:58.080 It's incredible.

00:39:59.300 Media and Lula da Silva, all the companies that really receive money from the state bank

00:40:04.740 and they just screw because they receive.

00:40:09.100 It's a state capitalism.

00:40:10.320 It's not a capitalism like here in the United States.

00:40:13.840 And it is funny to see how they are confessing, truly confessing, something is stronger than

00:40:22.320 2022.

00:40:24.060 And guess what, Steve?

00:40:25.220 why they are recognizing that Flávio Bolsonaro is growing in the polls and probably, and I do

00:40:32.640 believe so, he's going to win the election because the president of the United States is not going

00:40:37.520 to help. That is the truth. Biden really interfered in the election in Brazil back in 2022.

00:40:46.380 So right now we have Trump and Trump said that he was not going to do anything in there.

00:40:52.480 So that's why all these companies are already projecting how can we say that Flavio is the

00:40:58.960 truly president of Brazil in the next election, because in the United States, the leftists

00:41:05.140 in Brazil are not going to be helped by them.

00:41:08.080 So that is the truth.

00:41:08.960 Trump is not going to do what Biden did, interfere in the election in Brazil.

00:41:15.500 And that's why I do believe they are already confessing what is going to happen.

00:41:21.840 No, they're scared to death.

00:41:23.560 Alan, what's your social media?

00:41:25.800 Where do people go to keep up with all the developments

00:41:27.700 on this very important race?

00:41:31.520 You can follow me on Instagram.

00:41:34.840 It's 47, but in Portuguese, Conta do Alan.

00:41:38.240 Or just type my name, Alan Dos Santos,

00:41:40.500 on Instagram, on Twitter, X, Truth, Substack2.

00:41:46.280 Just type Alan Dos Santos.

00:41:47.920 Here in the United States, you can see all my accounts.

00:41:49.940 In Brazil, they can just see a few of them.

00:41:52.940 Exactly.

00:41:54.940 Lula, bad guy, Marxist.

00:41:57.940 Alan, thank you so much.

00:41:58.940 I appreciate you and appreciate everything

00:42:00.940 the Bolsonaro family is doing.

00:42:03.940 The coalition in their big anti-fraud and voter fraud meeting

00:42:08.940 they're having on June 15th through 18th

00:42:11.940 is going to premiere the new film about Jair Bolsonaro.

00:42:16.940 I'll tell you more about that after a short commercial break.

00:42:19.940 Let's take down the CCB. 0.99

00:42:22.960 War Room.

00:42:24.220 Here's your host, Stephen K.

00:42:26.240 Mann.

00:42:27.720 I'll get into more tomorrow.

00:42:30.860 And by the way, a lot more coming on Brazil.

00:42:33.380 The Matt Amink and the team at the coalition,

00:42:37.640 which is one of the strongest anti-voter fraud organizations

00:42:42.460 with every different group there,

00:42:44.940 having a big conference in Vegas.

00:42:46.920 I think it's the 15th through the 18th, two or three days in Vegas.

00:42:51.560 They're going to kick off on the 15th with a screening of Jim Caviezel playing Jair Bolsonaro in a film that's in English called Dark Horse.

00:43:01.100 It's an amazing, amazing film.

00:43:02.920 So they're going to premiere it there.

00:43:05.040 I think it will be available commercially in the United States later, either in July or August.

00:43:11.040 I don't think that's been worked out yet with the distribution.

00:43:13.380 But Jim Caviezel, one of the finest actors in the country, playing Bolsonaro, and it's very eerie, just embodies Bolsonaro in an amazing film.

00:43:24.120 And so if you the parallels between the United States and Brazil in this regard, particularly on voter fraud, is pretty extraordinary.

00:43:31.640 Tomorrow, we've got so much to get into.

00:43:33.320 There are in Georgia, I think that the Justice Department is now starting to put out requests, maybe called subpoenas for election workers in Georgia in 2020 to come in and start being interviewed and or testifying.

00:43:50.220 This thing in Georgia is really heating up. We're going to get to that.

00:43:53.000 Also, you know, our favorite newspaper, Rupert Murdoch's Wall Street Journal, particularly the editorial section, really rips on MAGA, the War Room Posse, and Ken Paxson's supporters and what they call Ken Paxson Republicans.

00:44:08.700 Big editorial. I'll get into that tomorrow and break it all down.

00:44:12.600 Huge movement in this artificial intelligence executive order.

00:44:17.080 Kind of Politico does a whole history of how this evolved, what happened in the past going forward.

00:44:22.760 Joe Allen's going to join me in the morning for that.

00:44:25.220 We've got an incredible show already backed up wall to wall.

00:44:29.140 And then tomorrow night, of course, Philip Patrick.

00:44:31.240 Remember, your homework lesson for Philip Patrick is to get to the end of the dollar empire.

00:44:36.180 It's totally free.

00:44:36.900 This will get you an understanding of fiat currency, kind of the populist movement in this country.

00:44:41.700 A lot about debt, a lot about how gold, particular fiat currency, how the dollar stacks up to the fiat currencies.

00:44:50.120 Remember, we say because there's a flight to quality, certainly during times of geopolitical uncertainty like we have now.

00:44:57.560 And you can tell that from the cabinet meeting today.

00:45:00.140 President Trump's, I think his thinking about this peace deal is pretty well defined, pretty well thought through.

00:45:08.680 I don't think there's a lot of hesitation when you hear from President Trump.

00:45:11.300 Now, we read the media back and forth on what they're doing.

00:45:14.220 It seems a lot of uncertainty.

00:45:15.540 President Trump doesn't seem uncertain at all.

00:45:18.860 And that's why the dollar's been strengthening.

00:45:20.860 I think a little off today, but it's been strengthening.

00:45:23.120 But the dollar compared to other fiat currencies is doing great,

00:45:26.780 but that's like being called the world's tallest midget against hard assets like oil,

00:45:33.560 other commodities like that, and gold not doing so well.

00:45:37.460 Anyway, check it out.

00:45:38.180 Find out why.

00:45:38.800 into the dollar empire birchgold.com slash band and talk to philip pastor and team and he'll be

00:45:44.060 here tomorrow night mike lindell you're heading up to the this is the convention in minnesota's

00:45:49.920 rules you know you got the labor farm group up there it's very confusing to a simple boy like

00:45:55.440 myself uh what the hell's happening you're going up to the convention if you win this convention

00:45:59.480 are you the nominee or you still got i thought you guys had primaries in uh in in august leave

00:46:05.100 it to minnesota the nice conservative people up there belt and suspenders you got to have a

00:46:09.720 convention and then later we're going to have a primary walk me through it brother yeah here's

00:46:14.320 what it is and it's very it's it's very discombobulated in my in my mind so we have this

00:46:20.200 weekend you get the the uh the mngop endorsement so you get the if you get their endorsement you

00:46:28.020 means 60% of the delegates. There's 2,400 delegates that vote Minnesota. Now, then we go

00:46:37.160 to the primary in August, but the primary in August, once the people vote, which I'm pulling

00:46:42.280 number one, you only have two weeks before you're already going up against Amy Klobuchar. So the way

00:46:48.500 this is set up in Minnesota is so wrong. You should have your primary now, like other states,

00:46:53.820 and get it done so you know who your candidate is and you fight that that uh the democrat well

00:46:59.420 anyway what it is steve they came to me in minnesota they want this year they want you

00:47:05.080 if you don't get their endorsement they want you to drop out now i didn't agree to drop out because

00:47:11.900 i'm pulling number one with the people i can't in good faith do that and but every all the other

00:47:17.080 candidates um the big candidates the big runs the damas and the kendalls they've agreed to drop out

00:47:23.320 if, let's say, if I get the endorsement, they're going to drop out. It'll just be me. And basically

00:47:29.180 the primary will just be some that have very little votes. And you can hit the ground running

00:47:34.240 on Monday, right up against Klobuchar. But anyway, before, what I did earlier in the years,

00:47:39.720 I said, you know what, I'm going right to Klobuchar now is what I've done. But you're

00:47:44.520 kind of hamstrung too when you, I don't get the list of the delegates. So I couldn't reach out

00:47:49.740 and market to the delegates.

00:47:50.920 So I got to give a really good speech this tomorrow night

00:47:54.900 in the debate and then Saturday to convince them

00:47:58.160 that there's only one path to beating Amy Klobuchar,

00:48:02.280 and that goes through our campaign.

00:48:04.400 Okay. Amen.

00:48:05.900 And we'll cover that all live.
