Bannon's War Room - Episode 5509： Building Back America's Architectural Legacy

00:00:00.000 this is the primal scream of a dying regime pray for our enemies because we're going to

00:00:10.400 medieval on these people here's not got a free shot all these networks lying about the people

00:00:16.980 the people have had a belly full of it i know you don't like hearing that i know you try to

00:00:21.060 do everything in the world to stop that but you're not going to stop it it's going to happen

00:00:24.180 And where do people like that go to share the big line?

00:00:27.780 MAGA Media.

00:00:28.700 I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.

00:00:34.620 Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?

00:00:38.320 If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.

00:00:44.740 War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Vann.

00:00:47.860 it's saturday 11 july in the year of lord 2026 we've got a very big week ahead of us and we're

00:00:59.860 gonna um lay some of the groundwork for that today during the show but i want to start so

00:01:05.140 that we remember what our fight is and if we don't quit we will win because you're the direct

00:01:10.640 heirs of the revolutionary generation passed down from generation to generation in an unbroken

00:01:17.180 chain of patriots. Eric Metaxas joins us. Eric and the Book Revolution, number two in the New

00:01:25.060 York Times bestseller list, and obviously want to drive it to number one. It's your beach read

00:01:29.980 for the summer. This book reads like a novel. You will not want to put it down. And as I tell you,

00:01:36.840 if you carry it to the beach, people will say, wow, what a smart person. That's like a 600-page

00:01:43.840 history book. Look at that. If you start reading it, you won't put it down. You will be smart.

00:01:50.120 So you'll get all the acclaim of, wow, that's a smart person. Look at that, bringing a big history

00:01:55.060 book to the beach as the friends, neighbors, kids run around. Eric Metaxas, we've got Matthew Taylor

00:02:02.160 is going to join us here momentarily from the plaza where they've done these amazing sculptors,

00:02:09.280 sculptures of the American patriots and the spirit of liberty. It's really, I think, one of

00:02:15.180 the most breathtaking things President Trump has done, and Vince Haley and all the great people

00:02:19.380 have been working on Freedom 250 and America 250. It's also the reason we have Matthew today

00:02:25.420 following you. It's going to continue on. Like I said, the 4th of July was the kickoff for the

00:02:32.040 250th. And every day we're going to talk about this because it's absolutely essential to continue

00:02:37.280 this revolution and to make sure that we keep our sovereignty in the process. One of the things that

00:02:43.520 Vince Haley wanted to do, and Matthew as the kind of the guy that executed on the plan, was to talk

00:02:48.980 about things people don't realize and what the sacrifice was in the American Revolution. And it

00:02:54.100 starts with panels about the Brooklyn prison ships, which very few people know. What's ironic

00:03:01.580 to me is that yesterday you gave this very moving, the people loved it, a description of what happened

00:03:06.480 at Battery and what happened at Bowling Green, right there at the tip of Manhattan, which is

00:03:10.820 today the Financial District, looking over the tall ships, looking over the naval. And many of

00:03:15.600 those troops that listened to General Washington read the Declaration of Independence at the command

00:03:23.060 of John Hancock, said, I want the troops to understand this. Many of those 60 days later,

00:03:28.800 90 days later, were on those prison ships after these battles. Eric Metaxas, the floor is yours.

00:03:34.000 well i'll tell you steve i said this over and over when i go to write a book there's so much

00:03:42.100 i don't know i don't want people to think i'm some scholar and then i decide to put all my

00:03:46.100 knowledge into a book i just knew i want to tell the story of the birth of america 250 years ago

00:03:52.080 and in the research that i did many things came to me that i had no idea about one of those things

00:03:59.540 which is all through my book, is the barbarism, the brutality of the British. And we have to

00:04:06.560 understand this comes out of their worldview. The Americans and the American leaders were

00:04:12.340 dramatically Christian. They said, we will treat our prisoners the way we would want to be treated 0.67

00:04:18.040 if we were prisoners. We are held to a higher moral standard. God will bless our efforts if we do what

00:04:25.580 God wants us to do in this sacred cause. The British, just the opposite. They were barbarous.

00:04:31.500 And one of the examples that when I read about it, it's very difficult to read. They treated

00:04:38.080 their prisoners like worse than dogs, like the Japanese in World War II, like the Nazis. Their 0.97

00:04:43.600 worldview was, we don't care about God. We don't need God's favor. We have the power to crush you.

00:04:49.660 we're going to crush you shut up and so the prisoners that they took they put in prison 0.96

00:04:56.000 ships these were old hulks that they couldn't use they were not seaworthy they had no air 0.97

00:05:02.240 no ventilation and basically these they were dungeons floating dungeons and 10,000 American

00:05:12.540 men died, died on those ships. Imagine they didn't die in battle. They died in these prisons. And

00:05:21.000 the barbarity of the British in doing this, George Washington and others wrote angry letters to

00:05:27.960 General Howe and others demanding that these conditions be improved. The British didn't care.

00:05:34.800 They were just really animated by the devil. They could not care less about how they treated their 0.98

00:05:40.360 prisoners. It's so barbaric. It's so awful. And this is another one of the reasons I say

00:05:45.260 we owe these men who died a debt because they could have said, we swear allegiance to King

00:05:52.060 George III. They would have been let go. That's maybe the most dramatic thing that I encountered

00:05:56.680 was that often they were, you know, sort of tortured in that way, right? All you have to do

00:06:03.420 is denounce the American effort, and they did not do that. So you realize that they were willing to

00:06:11.680 die, to suffer and die. We owe them, knowing their story, knowing what it was that they were engaged

00:06:19.880 in, it was a sacred cause. This was not just one political entity fighting another political

00:06:25.020 entity. They really believed God was with them in this battle against a wicked nation. The British

00:06:32.920 nation had been taken over by people who were deeply wicked. And the Americans stood against

00:06:38.740 that. And we prevailed, I believe, and I think they believed, because they had the moral high

00:06:44.380 ground. They said, we're going to be the good guys. We are not going to do what the British do.

00:06:49.020 And it is so astonishing when you read about what they suffered, you start realizing we owe them 1.00

00:06:54.700 everything. So the least we can do is know their story. That's why I wrote the book.

00:06:59.240 Is this a continuation, really a part of it,

00:07:02.740 and the reason the brutality was the English Civil War

00:07:05.260 and that Massachusetts was founded by the dissenters,

00:07:08.420 founded by the pilgrims, founded by the Puritans

00:07:10.380 that detested the Church of England. 0.97

00:07:12.680 I mean, forget the Catholic Church.

00:07:13.900 They detested the Church of England.

00:07:16.500 And was the harsh treatment almost like it was a civil war

00:07:19.460 that the British troops and the British officers

00:07:22.580 and the politicians detested the fact

00:07:25.860 that these English subjects, British subjects, for the first time would really break off from

00:07:31.440 the British Empire and basically say the king does not have a divine right to rule us and we're just

00:07:36.180 going to go do our own thing? So you build up this animosity and this hatred? Well, that's part of it.

00:07:41.800 In other words, I think it was probably different with every officer had a different point of view.

00:07:45.920 But I think basically, yes, their opinion, I mean, or I should say their view, the British view

00:07:51.800 was, we are the mother country. You need to shut up and submit. Now, the Americans said,

00:07:58.900 we don't know what you're talking about. We, in the previous century, we thought it had been

00:08:03.960 established that we have rights, that British subjects have certain rights. So the idea that

00:08:10.760 Britain could cavalierly tell us to do this or to pay these taxes, they had such dignity. And

00:08:17.480 again, this comes from a biblical worldview. They had dignity. They said, this is who we are in

00:08:23.400 God's eyes. And we're not going to submit to tyranny. That would be really to disobey God.

00:08:31.080 I mean, so they were motivated by this religious passion. Most of them really were. And they

00:08:37.000 thought, I'm not going to be dishonorable to God. I'm not going to be dishonorable to my own beliefs

00:08:42.480 by simply saying, well, you know what, if I want to get along and I want them to treat me right,

00:08:46.740 I'll just keep my mouth shut. That would be to be a coward and a bum. They had tremendous dignity. 0.99

00:08:53.320 And I think that, you know, in this day and age, we know people who have that same attitude,

00:08:57.900 who are willing to die for the truth. And we know plenty of people who don't give a damn about the

00:09:02.640 truth. They don't believe in the truth. Like Pontius Pilate, they say, what is truth? Just

00:09:06.620 give me the money or let me pass. I don't want any trouble. But if you're a patriot, you say,

00:09:12.480 I was made for trouble. I was made to do what God's will is, to do the right thing for my family,

00:09:18.260 to be a man in this hour, and I will not shrink from that. That's truly the spirit of 7076,

00:09:24.500 and we need to understand that's real. That's not just something we say, you know, to puff

00:09:28.560 ourselves up with kind of fake patriotism. This was real. This was true. We need to know these

00:09:34.600 stories and that these men were truly great men who deserve our gratitude, and we need to know

00:09:41.640 who they are, we need to know their stories, and we need to tell our kids these stories so that we

00:09:46.180 can be as they were. That's really the point of telling these historical stories. And here's the

00:09:52.340 thing, the book is so accessible, you can buy one for a young person, they'll be able to get through

00:09:56.160 it. It'll be a great exercise. Eric, I've gotten so much feedback that people want to meet you and

00:10:02.200 see you. Tell us where you are today. First off, how do we get the book? And where do we go to find

00:10:07.100 at your travels and where you're today. I think you're making a major address today

00:10:10.480 at this is the Libertarians. I've been in Las Vegas at Freedom Fest, headed up by Mark Skousen,

00:10:22.160 all kinds of people here. Kelsey Grammer is going to be here this morning. Glenn Beck was

00:10:25.820 here yesterday, but I'm now flying to Dallas. I'm speaking in Prestonwood Baptist Church in Dallas.

00:10:32.060 That's tomorrow morning at both services. I'll be signing books as long as people want me to

00:10:36.560 sign books. Next week, I'm going to be in Maine. After that, I'll be in L.A. If you go to my

00:10:43.840 website, ericmetaxas.com, everything is laid out there. I just love meeting people and signing

00:10:48.880 the books and hanging out. It's a joy for me. It's an honor for me. It goes on and on into

00:10:54.720 September. Just go to ericmetaxas.com. You can see where I'm going to be. Otherwise, it's not

00:11:00.380 possible to get signed books. For now, that's what you have to do.

00:11:04.580 well that's great i think people want to meet you and uh and share their uh the love of this book

00:11:10.420 and uh you know talk to you about your ideas and your thoughts about this because it's been

00:11:14.280 extraordinary this is kind of like its own little mini movement and i can't thank you enough for

00:11:18.820 timing this to come out it's just been a perfect thing for the for the 250th this is the summer

00:11:23.760 this is the summer that we reconnect we re this was this is ordained by god the 250th year we

00:11:30.480 Americans, patriots, to reconnect with the spirit of 1776 for such a time as this. This is not a

00:11:37.000 coincidence. It's not a marketing thing. This is our opportunity as Americans, and I believe God

00:11:41.160 has ordained it so we can take the nation back for God's purposes. That's what we're all about.

00:11:47.380 This is not about, oh, it's a fun history lesson. This is about where we are right now.

00:11:52.600 Eric, thank you so much. I appreciate you. We'll let you get on your way. Good luck down

00:11:56.020 But in Dallas, all the great folks in Texas, appreciate you.

00:11:59.500 Thank you.

00:11:59.920 God bless you, Steve.

00:12:02.400 It's absolutely correct.

00:12:03.540 That's why this 250th, the reconnection, and I think what's so amazing

00:12:08.660 and what we're going to do with Patrick O'Donnell and others,

00:12:12.140 Matthew Taylor is going to help us on this here in a minute,

00:12:14.320 is that this started, which is really never tied together that much,

00:12:20.200 this started with a bang.

00:12:22.280 The Declaration of Independence obviously spoke to all mankind.

00:12:26.020 in the magnificent and the beauty about uh our rights and our rights coming from god

00:12:31.080 right inalienable rights or unalienable rights that was the fight john at the only fight that

00:12:36.760 well i shouldn't say the only the fight they had at the end between inalienable and unalienable he

00:12:41.960 and jefferson which um adams got fixed at the printer as he said um the british already knew

00:12:51.100 that this was a declaration of war they weren't prepared to tolerate that that's what they sent

00:12:55.040 an expeditionary force and then you have it building uh you have washington and what they

00:13:00.700 wanted to do was fire up both the people come together volunteer for the continental army and

00:13:05.320 also for the militia so right there at battery right there at the battery and in bowling green

00:13:10.200 overlooking beautiful new york harbor and particularly where the royal navy was coming

00:13:14.940 at anchor with these combatants and the uh troops were um were disembarking at staten island 32

00:13:22.840 2,000 of them, to let them know that British might and British power was about to, they were about to

00:13:27.500 drop the hammer. And so Washington steeled his troops for the hammer blow that was about to come.

00:13:35.900 Well, you're the troops of the modern revolution. You're the vanguard. Using your agency, you become

00:13:41.940 a cadre that moves the needle. And we got a lot to talk about today. And next week is going to be a

00:17:41.000 You heard it first here.

00:17:42.040 We said this is going to happen.

00:17:43.320 You're going to get a CR.

00:17:45.000 Appropriations bills are not done, not finished.

00:17:47.780 They're coming back on Monday.

00:17:50.400 They're coming back Monday.

00:17:51.980 They take off the first week of August.

00:17:54.180 I think they're actually going to go to August 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, maybe the 10th.

00:17:58.960 They're gone to September 14th.

00:18:01.240 Write this down.

00:18:01.920 Take your number two.

00:18:02.800 Is your vacation that long?

00:18:04.180 They're going to September 14th.

00:18:06.300 They're here for two weeks.

00:18:07.360 And then in October, they're going home to campaign.

00:18:09.560 So essentially, they're here for, I don't know, three or four weeks.

00:18:13.740 The rest of the, for this Congress.

00:18:16.040 i guess you call the lame duck anyway um it's gonna this thing's all gonna blow up and uh

00:18:23.300 the senate is a absolute disaster still fighting president trump i don't care what they say about

00:18:27.980 well they're trying to work with him they're not however i think monday tuesday wednesday next week

00:18:34.760 we're going to have what we call a forcing function just stand by i'll give you more on

00:18:40.240 that to force people's hands on all this. Matthew Taylor. President Trump, one of the concepts he

00:18:47.580 had, and Vince Hanlon, the people who worked as my crowd, is the state fair was going to be the

00:18:51.600 run-up to the 250th on 4th of July. We were going to have a party and like a birthday celebration.

00:18:58.880 But the idea was also to take this 250th year and use some devices that would draw people in.

00:19:06.020 one of the most impressive and quite frankly as i've sent people there they're blown away

00:19:10.540 is what you and vince and others have done in that park it's a very historical little park right

00:19:16.560 that's right across from a little plaza i guess we call it right across from the historical willard

00:19:21.420 hotel catacorner to the willard and right across from sabin howard's magnificent world war one

00:19:27.500 monument which is breathtaking we cover that for years of sabin putting it together

00:19:32.940 So walk us through, particularly we just had revolution in Vince Haley's thing about the concept of it.

00:19:39.880 He wanted to make sure people know about these prison ships, the suffering and sacrifice,

00:19:43.980 but also then some of the glorious monuments that you guys have created, the sculpture,

00:19:48.920 to really quite uplifting to people.

00:19:50.860 Matthew Taylor, the floor is yours, sir.

00:19:54.820 Thank you, Steve.

00:19:55.740 Yeah, we're here at Freedom Plaza, and the 4th of July was just the beginning of the celebration.

00:20:02.260 It's the whole year. The state fair was a fantastic homage to the great states of this nation.

00:20:10.460 But what we really wanted to do was come up with something that would last for the entire year and that would tell the story of the revolution so that the story was always fresh.

00:20:20.080 So here at Freedom Plaza, we built a series of statues, 21 statues, and of course brought Caesar Rodney back.

00:20:27.220 And so the best way to experience Freedom Plaza in person, of course, is to come to the park.

00:20:32.580 And behind me, you'll see that they've turned on the fountain for the first time in 17 years.

00:20:36.720 And that is the prison ship, as you were talking in your previous segment on.

00:20:40.380 The prison ship is just not something, the British prison ships, people just don't know that much about them.

00:20:44.860 And we really wanted to not just inform people about this horrible situation with the British,

00:20:52.160 but we actually wanted to make it something that you would experience.

00:20:55.500 And the British prison ship is eight panels that are shaped in the shape of a ship.

00:21:00.880 And you actually enter into the ship and you see all the different reliefs of what these prisoners went through.

00:21:07.640 And the final relief, which is only four feet tall, is them being set free after the war.

00:21:13.000 But what's great about it is because the fountain is back on, while you stand in that prison ship, you hear the water, the fountain.

00:21:20.320 The panels are at different heights, so they emulate the rocking of the ships.

00:21:24.620 And so that is really the best place to start your experience in Freedom Plaza.

00:21:29.240 And then as you look this way, you see the giant resurrected Caesar Rodney statue that was torn down in 2020

00:21:37.200 and has been brought here to kick off this second part of the experience, which is the entire…

00:21:44.200 Can I play some B-roll on the Rodney? I think we've got some B-roll on that.

00:21:47.660 I want to understand. I want people to understand. I think it was in the summer of love when these anarchists and Marxists and people that hate this country.

00:21:55.600 Let's let's play. Let's do a split screen with Matthew. Matthew, tell me about Caesar Rodney.

00:22:00.080 Caesar Rodney kind of broke the tie. It was Caesar Rodney that was so important as a Delaware representative.

00:22:05.800 This is one of the great men in American history. Tell me about the statue, how it was abused and what you guys did to make this a central part of this of this Liberty Plaza.

00:22:18.320 Well, you know, in 2020, many statues were torn down and some were destroyed.

00:22:23.680 Cesar Rodney was taken down, I believe, by actually the Delaware government.

00:22:28.440 You know, they said to protect him.

00:22:30.160 But he was put in a box and he sat in a box for many, many years.

00:22:34.060 And so, you know, thanks to people like Vince Haley, who took a great interest in Cesar Rodney, we found him.

00:22:39.820 We brought him to Washington, D.C.

00:22:41.400 We built this beautiful pedestal, as you can see behind me, out of precast concrete and put him in the middle of this beautiful installation.

00:22:49.880 And of course, Cesar Rodney had cancer. He had emphysema.

00:22:53.340 He rode through a storm through the night to sign, to show up and be the tiebreaker that would set all of this in motion.

00:23:01.500 And so, you know, while he's not always the common name on someone's lips when they talk about the founding fathers,

00:23:07.280 he is a critical piece of why we are here at all.

00:23:11.400 And we are so honored to be able to put him up here in the middle of Freedom Plaza, a place that has represented all sorts of activism and other things.

00:23:20.020 And he is one of the original, you know, guys that got it done.

00:23:23.900 And so he sits here in the middle of the plaza, of course, with the 12 soldiers of the revolution.

00:23:30.620 We have five or six black patriots that we are honoring.

00:23:35.280 There's all people from all ages, all creeds and everywhere that came together as ordinary people to create an extraordinary nation.

00:23:47.000 And so you go from Caesar Rodney's ride, you walk through what we like to call the Revolutionary War, the soldiers.

00:23:53.940 They have plaques that you can read to learn who they are and to understand them.

00:23:58.380 They're all in motion. That's one thing that was very important in the design of the sculptures.

00:24:02.020 We wanted to show these guys doing things, being active.

00:24:06.020 And so when you finally go through all of those soldiers, of which you can spend quite a bit of time on because their stories are all so fascinating, when you get to the end of that, you get to the spirit of liberty.

00:24:16.280 The spirit of liberty is a 21st century American icon similar to the Statue of Liberty or the Statue of Freedom on top of our U.S. Capitol, of which this plaza sits not far from.

00:24:26.620 And she represents what all of this is here for, why Caesar Rodney Road, why those prisoners decided to stay on those ships when all they had to do was renounce the cause and walk off, why these soldiers fought and died to build this nation.

00:24:42.440 And so she is 23 feet tall.

00:24:45.700 She holds the Declaration of Independence in one of her hands.

00:24:48.720 She has a sword to the sky.

00:24:50.840 And on her base, there's three reliefs.

00:24:53.680 And the three reliefs tell the entire story of the revolution.

00:24:57.680 There's the signing of the Declaration of Independence.

00:25:00.320 There's the crossing of the Delaware.

00:25:01.980 And there's the surrender at Yorktown.

00:25:03.940 So you get to experience the entire revolution based off three very famous paintings that we love.

00:25:09.400 And that's what Freedom Plaza is.

00:25:11.020 It will be here for the duration of the 250th celebration, and it will be here for you to experience, for you to take your children to.

00:25:19.220 I come here almost every day just to see how people are enjoying the statues, and it's wonderful to see families and people of all backgrounds reading, taking pictures.

00:25:30.460 And so we're very, very excited for everybody to come see this, experience the statue, stand inside the prison ship and and, you know, celebrate this this amazing, amazing country for the next year or so.

00:25:43.140 yeah no it's uh the feedback we've gotten is tremendous uh before i'm holding you through

00:25:48.380 the break uh quickly before the break the park service deserves a hat tip here you guys i mean

00:25:53.740 it's amazing that you and vince and you're the main guy in charge but vince's idea the president's

00:25:59.680 idea was able to execute in such a limited amount of time you could not have done it without some

00:26:04.780 great support by a national park service correct absolutely the park services have been absolutely

00:26:11.980 amazing and they took a whole year to restore the plaza i mean honestly we had not seen the

00:26:17.460 fountain turned on i didn't even know there was text in half of this plaza so the park services

00:26:21.780 has has done an amazing job in freedom plaza and frankly they've done an amazing job across the

00:26:26.840 entire city you know they i'm i'm from this area and a lot of these fountains i've never seen

00:26:31.640 turned on a lot of this has not been cleaned they outdid themselves in a record amount of time and

00:26:36.780 And it's a great honor to work with the Park Services.

00:26:41.380 Matthew, can you just hang right there?

00:26:42.940 We're going to come right back to you.

00:26:43.940 A couple other things, a couple other details I want to make sure people get.

00:26:47.380 And this is a great way to commemorate it, support this, you know,

00:26:50.900 not just simply the Revolution book, other content we're going to be putting up.

00:26:54.820 Like I said, we're going to go through what happened here.

00:26:57.960 Patrick O'Donnell is going to be joining us next week and the weeks to come,

00:27:00.700 other historians about the Revolution, and to connect to the patriots today.

00:27:06.400 We have a lot of work to do, a lot of work.

00:27:08.660 And you're going to see next week, I think, the scale of what we can accomplish

00:27:12.780 and what is necessary to save this republic.

00:27:17.340 Let me put it that way.

00:27:19.080 I want to thank, by the way, and the sponsors,

00:27:21.540 one of the things we do with the sponsors is make sure that you have access

00:27:24.380 to the senior people in the company.

00:27:26.540 And in addition, that they're giving us special deals for the war and posse all the time.

00:27:31.620 One of the ones that knocked it out of the park is Chapter, this new data company.

00:27:35.260 845 war room they've already saved a million dollars for war room posse members that call

00:27:42.760 that number 845 war room what do they do they take all the data out there all the perturbations

00:27:48.880 of these medicare plans which are mind-numbingly confusing it's like quantum mechanics right

00:27:54.260 they make it simple for you to ask questions get results think it through not just to save money

00:27:59.540 but also to get the best plan. An optimum plan for you at the right cost. 845 Warburg. The folks

00:28:07.800 over there are just absolutely amazing. Chapter 845 Warburg. Make sure you do it today, over the

00:28:13.480 weekend, and just take your time. Walk them through it. You'll start to understand the

00:28:20.460 complexity of Medicare, but how they can make it simpler when you get the right plan at the right

00:28:24.820 cost. Short commercial break. We're going to go back to Freedom Plaza. Matthew Taylor next.

00:28:29.540 everyone's focused on how the conflict in the middle east is raising oil prices but there's

00:28:36.040 another grim reality to this contention oil isn't the only resource being constrained about one

00:28:43.040 third of global fertilizer trade happens through this region and with spring planting season on

00:28:49.160 top of us american farmers are sounding the alarm with some saying they can't afford to plant their

00:28:54.260 fields. When one piece of the supply chain gets hit this hard, you know what comes next. Higher

00:29:00.140 food prices, reduced availability, maybe even panic buying. That's why having an emergency food

00:29:06.440 supply at home makes so much sense. And that's where our friends at MyPatriotSupply come in

00:29:13.040 right now at preparewithbannon.com. That is preparewithbannon.com. We've set up an entire

00:29:19.800 just site for the war room posse you go to preparewithbannon.com that's all one word

00:30:13.500 go in the interim to find out more about this i think you've already set up a mini tour

00:30:18.280 online where they get the information so they can find the location. You also can enjoy right

00:30:25.000 across the street from the plaza is Sabin Howard's magnificent work on World War I. And as you know,

00:30:32.020 we covered Sabin in detail, the making of it, the pounding of it, all of it,

00:30:36.680 the creation of it for years. It's also on January 5th. This is where all those fire

00:30:43.100 Breathing speeches took place. And I think starting Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, we're

00:30:48.500 going to be able to connect those speeches to current events. Let's say that. Matthew, where

00:30:54.880 do people go? And where do people go to the Park Service to find out more about what you guys have

00:30:59.940 created here? Absolutely. So yes, Freedom Plaza is on Pennsylvania Avenue. Like Steve said,

00:31:07.700 It's right next to the World War I monument across from City Hall, and it is free.

00:31:13.620 It is a park.

00:31:14.460 Most people don't even know this park is here, but they know now because it feels completed with these statues here.

00:31:19.840 If you want to find it online, the National Park Services has done an exceptional job at putting Freedom Plaza online.

00:31:27.240 You can even just search NPS Freedom Plaza on Google.

00:31:30.780 Google itself has done a walkthrough, so you'll be able to actually experience it at home if you do not come to Washington, D.C.

00:31:37.400 You'll be able to walk through the park and see the statues online through Google Earth and Google Maps.

00:31:43.980 So, yeah, it is absolutely free.

00:31:46.060 It is an extension of what is already here in the monumental core of Washington, D.C., which, as you know, all of these monuments celebrate our nation and our founders.

00:31:56.380 And so, yes, come to Freedom Plaza.

00:31:58.280 Bring your entire family.

00:31:59.500 Come many times and have an experience of a lifetime.

00:32:01.940 time. Yeah, and I want to thank you not just for doing it in the Brooklyn prison ships, but also

00:32:08.440 the spirit of liberty. I think it's one of the most breathtaking, you know, classical pieces of

00:32:14.080 sculpture I've seen, and it's such a, it's so fantastic to have it right there in the heart

00:32:18.780 of Washington. I just can't thank you guys enough for conceiving this, you and Vince,

00:32:22.460 and for making sure this got done so quickly. When you told me about it, I said, okay, that'll be done

00:32:26.760 in 10 years. Check back with me at the end of the decade, but know you guys got it done. I want to

00:32:31.280 thank the park service everybody involved matthew taylor thank you so much brother appreciate you

00:32:35.200 thank you for having me steve appreciate it make sure you go down there it's going to stay for the

00:32:42.440 entire year and it's extraordinary i think in vince haley you know most of the great speeches

00:32:48.420 that then you know since uh middle of 2017 when vince came aboard like the warsaw speech so many

00:32:56.180 of the great speeches uh vince has had with stephen miller has been like the chief architect

00:33:00.160 so he just done a fantastic job he brings a real sense of american history to the white house okay

00:33:06.240 we're going to connect that our revolutionary founding in this magnificent generation of men

00:33:11.920 and women that fought and would not give up remember folks the reason we have our freedom

00:33:19.040 is not a document the reason we have our freedom is that we fought for it for year after year after

00:33:24.480 year and hey as we're going to see as we go through this summer and the fall all the way up

00:33:30.720 to all the way up to christmas night it was virtually one unrelenting defeat after now

00:33:36.760 amazing heroism and amazing courage and valor and just to stick in there and some of the things that

00:33:42.580 you will will go in detail like the american thermopoly in brooklyn with the uh that renowned

00:33:48.420 maryland regiment uh the american dunkirk right there where brooklyn bridge is today right at

00:33:53.940 Brooklyn Heights to basically save the army, the Continental Army and the militias from total

00:33:58.720 destruction with their back to the East River to get to Manhattan. The retreat across Manhattan,

00:34:03.800 the retreat across the fighting retreat across New Jersey where the army never collapsed.

00:34:09.660 That took courage and bravery. We'll get into all of that. But we also have to have our new

00:34:14.180 courage and bravery to make sure that we can bequeath the greatest nation in the history of

00:34:20.020 earth to future generations. That is the task and purpose, or that is the task at hand. And if it

00:34:27.660 becomes your purpose, we'll get this done. If it's not, and this audience is absolutely central to

00:34:33.380 that, I don't know. I just don't know. If you guys put your shoulder to the wheel, we'll win.

00:34:40.800 Let's play today's cold open. Kurt Mills is going to join us right afterwards. So go ahead and play

00:34:45.000 cold open. This is Pickaxe Mountain, another site where Iran is believed to be advancing 1.00

00:34:50.480 its nuclear capabilities deep underground. And in recent weeks, vehicles could clearly 0.94

00:34:55.900 be seen going in and out of the tunnels. Experts told CNN this was likely a violation

00:35:01.120 of the term signed with the US, which required Iran to maintain the status quo regarding

00:35:06.600 their nuclear program. In contrast, other prominent nuclear sites did not seem to have

00:35:11.540 been touched, like Isfahan here, Fordeaux here and the Tants. There has been activity at some

00:35:18.240 missile sites. The US and its allies have long been concerned about Tehran's missile capacity

00:35:23.220 and the latest imagery suggests Iran has already started repairing some storage sites.

00:35:28.820 This is new paving laid out at Tabriz missile base in recent days. And at another missile base

00:35:34.460 in Kermanshah, we can see excavators and tunnel entrances being cleared. Lastly, we've also

00:35:39.660 spotted repairs at air bases in recent days. You can see a crater being filled in here at Tabriz

00:35:44.820 Air Base. With the U.S. resuming its attacks on Iran, a peace agreement is seeming increasingly

00:35:50.160 out of reach. Axios reports that the Trump administration has given Iran a deadline of

00:35:54.960 today to publicly announce that the Strait of Hormuz is open and stop attacks on commercial

00:36:00.900 ships. That's according to three U.S. officials. And according to the Wall Street Journal,

00:36:06.580 Officials said that the administration believes that a nuclear deal with Iran is growing increasingly unlikely.

00:36:13.100 The journal also reports that Israel recently shared new intelligence with the U.S.

00:36:17.580 that Iran was considering a plan to assassinate President Trump, according to people familiar with the matter.

00:36:23.880 President Trump told the New York Post that he's left instructions

00:36:27.240 should Iran succeed in their plots to, quote, just literally bomb them at levels they've never seen before.

00:36:33.740 He reiterated that threat on social media late Friday, saying 1,000 missiles are locked and loaded and aimed at the Islamic Republic of Iran if the Iranian government carried out an assassination attempt against him.

00:36:45.600 If you look at the Kashi prediction mark and the chance that six House Democrats go down to defeat, lose their primary in 2026, this number has consistently over the last week or so been hovering 80, 90 percent.

00:36:57.620 And when we talk about history books, the history books, right, if in fact six House Democrats went down to defeat in 2026, it would be by far, it would be the largest number, be the largest number in a post-redistricting cycle for Democrats.

00:37:13.060 And get this, over 50 years.

00:37:15.840 That's why I got this picture of the Tea Party on your screen right now.

00:37:18.500 We begin this hour with the clear message from the Trump administration about the midterm elections.

00:37:25.340 carry it out the way we want, or face the consequences.

00:37:29.200 That's basically what the White House said after Trump fired the remaining three members

00:37:33.560 of the Bipartisan Election Assistance Commission this week.

00:37:37.220 A White House official told MSNOW, quote,

00:37:41.080 the president and head of the executive branch reserves the right to remove individuals

00:37:45.340 that may not be totally aligned with the important task of securing America's elections

00:37:50.580 and ensuring every legal vote is counted.

00:37:54.540 Nowhere did that official indicate how these members failed in their task, but it may very well be that they were just not, quote, totally aligned with Trump's view of securing the election and the consequences have become even greater for the states.

00:38:09.840 The New York Times reports that the administration could hold back tens of millions of dollars in anti-terrorism funds to states that do not agree to make changes to their election process, including transitioning to paper ballots and verifying the citizenship of voters.

00:38:27.440 And if non-citizens were to vote, which is extremely rare and already against the law, the DOJ is threatening top election officials nationwide with criminal prosecution, according to a letter sent to all 50 states and reviewed by MSNOW.

00:38:43.940 The DOJ is also planning to send election monitors to 15 jurisdictions in six states for the remaining primary elections this summer to, quote, ensure voter confidence in the upcoming primary elections.

00:38:57.440 or at least that's what they say that's what they say that's what they say it's a little bit like

00:39:02.920 groundhog day as you mentioned earlier this the ceasefire uh never actually went into effect uh

00:39:11.160 fire never ceased trump violated it from the beginning by threatening the iranians which

00:39:15.880 was something that was prescribed in the mou um this recent uh example of supposed supposed

00:39:24.040 an assassination threat against Trump. And by the way, the Iranians are not good guys and have been 0.99

00:39:29.220 leaders of global terrorism for a long time. But the fact of an American president threatening 0.81

00:39:35.900 genocide against the whole people in case he's assassinated is more than unseemly. It's

00:39:41.100 incredibly vulgar and undiplomatic language, which is what we've seen all week. So again,

00:39:47.980 I think they're just playing for time. The Iranians may have overplayed their hand. They 1.00

00:39:54.560 got so much in the MOU, I would have just said, guys, go home and just start collecting the

00:40:00.100 hundreds and millions and billions of dollars, which the U.S. promised to you. But what I think

00:40:06.320 ultimately will happen is sort of like what has happened in Gaza. We're not talking about Gaza

00:40:10.580 anymore. Where was the great peace deal in Gaza? Well, I think Trump will just kick this down the

00:40:15.840 road for months and even years, and there'll be occasional flare-ups, but there'll never be a

00:40:21.360 nuclear deal along the lines of what the JCPOA did under Obama. The elections are secure.

00:40:29.700 Non-citizens, what was that story that we had was like vanishingly rare that a non-citizen votes, 0.79

00:40:38.660 And that is not, you know, on purpose. 0.82

00:40:41.700 It's like accidental.

00:40:44.240 Go ahead, Eugene.

00:40:46.300 I mean, I'm fluttering here.

00:40:47.980 Because it's frustrating.

00:40:49.340 Yeah.

00:40:49.580 And it feels like we have been having a similar conversation as a country since 2020, which is that Donald Trump created this lie from the beginning.

00:40:58.680 Because it was in the summer that he started saying that the election was going to be stolen because of mail-in voting during COVID.

00:41:03.600 And he laid the groundwork, has been getting people riled up.

00:41:07.060 people died on january 6th because of this and has continued on and now he is back in the white

00:41:12.080 house with all hands on power he has a doj that seems willing to do whatever he wants despite the

00:41:19.140 fact that bill barr who was the who was the head of the doj who was the ag at the time said uh no

00:41:24.580 the election was not stolen i'm not about to go do what you want he gets rid of this all the people

00:41:29.300 in this election assistance commission which is supposed to also find ways to make sure that the

00:41:33.920 states have what they need to do their own elections, because we don't have federal

00:41:37.260 elections. We have, you know, 50 plus little elections. And so what it appears to be is that

00:41:43.120 Donald Trump is laying the groundwork to shenanigan in the election at the very, at the very

00:41:50.600 least, making it harder for people to vote, making it harder for secretaries of state to do their

00:41:55.360 job. We will talk to Cisco Aguilar here in a second, but it's over and over and over.

00:41:59.020 The new supreme leader this morning in a statement posted on to his telegram account, he called for revenge for the death of his father, his predecessor, saying it was, quote, the demand of the nation and, quote, must certainly take place.

00:42:17.200 How do you being a former State Department official, how do you view that comment from the new supreme leader?

00:42:23.820 And how do you think that's going over in the West Wing right now?

00:42:29.020 Well, I think, Jonathan, it's equally irresponsible to Trump's statements.

00:42:34.180 But one of the things we almost never talk about is the assassination by the U.S. and Israel of the leader of Iran's Shia Muslims, the religious and spiritual leader of Iran's Shia Muslims, the spiritual and religious leader of the world's 250 Shia Muslims, and something that offended probably the billion and a half Sunni Muslims around the world.

00:42:58.180 I mean, it's just an incredible thing that happened.

00:43:01.240 And I think what we saw with the outpouring of grief for the Ayatollah, of course, there's going to be a spirit of revenge there.

00:43:09.940 I think he has to escalate his language.

00:43:13.200 There's like escalation dominance of language because of what Trump says, that they have to reply to that.

00:43:18.380 So I don't think it's responsible.

00:43:20.420 I certainly hope nothing like that exchange happens, but it's pretty predictable.

00:45:39.060 War Room.

00:45:39.940 Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.

00:45:42.340 about i want to get into all this um but i really want to get into it with um with kurt

00:45:51.160 mills about this whole thing on assassinations because the president in the middle of the night

00:45:54.660 put this thing out too where he's essentially saying i'm putting a dead hand on this in other

00:45:59.540 words if i'm assassinated by the iranians um that we're dealing with the whole charlie kirk

00:46:05.460 assassination we just finished five days that which is inextricably linked with what we're

00:46:11.200 going through now and people would say well it's either transgender or israel or whatever but it's

00:46:15.240 it's it's all through the anarchy we're seeing in the world right now so charlie kirk has been

00:46:20.560 assassinated president trump now they're saying hey he was almost assassinated the other day

00:46:24.700 assassinating attempt and of course the stories in the wall street journal which did the best

00:46:28.360 reporting said that senior officials didn't buy it from the israelis and uh and thought and this

00:46:34.700 i'm just quoting i've got it up on my getter account thought it was just another move by them

00:46:40.240 to continue us in this war um and i think we have to be very careful about that and i would

00:46:46.160 argue to the president be very careful about it we've kind of had a there's been this i don't say

00:46:51.520 it's a gentleman's agreement we did not get involved in the in the assassination attempts

00:46:55.840 on hitler that came from you know that came from various members of the wehrmacht and other members

00:47:00.760 of german society that tried to do it we did not try to you know assassinate many of the leaders

00:47:06.780 one of the assassination attempts just to go back in history that um the um toward in 1864

00:47:15.220 after Gettysburg and remember after Gettysburg there was really went 10 months almost a year

00:47:21.760 before any major military operations in the east the command structure of both armies were so

00:47:26.840 destroyed the battle was like three waterloos in a row day after day after day that by um

00:47:33.240 january and february of 1864 with an election coming up you know lincoln thought it's kind of

00:47:39.880 over i'm not going to win re-election this thing's as bad they came up with this attempt to go take

00:47:46.520 richmond or at least try to free the prisoners of richmond it's called dahlgren's raid um and

00:47:52.420 dahlgren's raid went down and dahlgren who was the son of an admiral eventually the raid failed

00:47:58.720 The way to Richmond, the cavalry unit, it was a fiasco.

00:48:03.220 Dahlgren was killed near Mechanicsville, Virginia.

00:48:07.040 On Colonel Dahlgren's body, they found an envelope with the orders.

00:48:12.120 Now, it's been argued whether these are real orders or fake orders,

00:48:14.300 but the orders were this was all a diversionary tactic.

00:48:16.920 It was Kirkpatrick's regiment that was going down.

00:48:20.340 It was a total distraction so that Dahlgren could go to the Confederate White House,

00:48:27.420 captured the cabinet of the Confederacy and Jefferson Davis

00:48:32.180 and either assassinate them or told them hostage

00:48:34.780 and bring them back to Washington, D.C. 0.97

00:48:37.080 in a bold stroke that would end the war-in-one movement.

00:48:40.740 Well, whether papers were right or not,

00:48:42.560 the Confederacy thought, and the Secret Service of the Confederacy

00:48:45.160 in Montreal and in New York City,

00:48:46.820 and remember, New York City was a hotbed of Confederate activity,

00:48:50.220 began the assassination plot on Lincoln.

00:48:52.840 and they got a agent for the confederate secret sort of confederate um uh you know the confederate

00:49:01.240 military intelligence which is john wilkes booth and of course um mary surratt her family from

00:49:08.680 they were up to their necks in confederate and being confederate spies and part of a confederate

00:49:14.440 network of really assassins they tried several assassination attempts on including the

00:49:19.540 inauguration, including outside the Willard. They're trying to blow up the White House when

00:49:22.860 Grant was there. All these operations and finally succeeded at Ford's Theater.

00:49:28.260 My point, these things get incredibly messy when you go down this road. Now, Kurt Mills,

00:49:33.520 here's my point. Part of Israeli, and look, they're fighting long odds because they're 1.00

00:49:39.020 fighting all the Arabs at one time. And this is why we say that we're not a fan of this greater 1.00

00:49:43.000 Israel project. But assassination is part of their, when this thing first started on that first night 0.94

00:49:50.220 back in the 12-day war, let's go back to the beginning, they killed the negotiators. They

00:49:55.340 were supposed to have a meeting on Sunday in Oman, Whitcoff and Jared, they killed the negotiators

00:50:00.040 as their first blow. When we get to this part, they're trying to kill, they set the thing over,

00:50:05.440 reason President Trump kind of takes Qatar aside, they went and set a missile over in Qatar to,

00:50:10.300 guess what? Get negotiators. They have a history of doing this, sir. And you're going down a very

00:50:16.560 dangerous road. Now we got the president of the United States that's saying, hey, if I'm

00:50:21.060 assassinated, there's going to be a thousand missiles a day. They're going to hit Iran till 0.54

00:50:25.200 we take it off the face of the map. And I would just tell the president, Mr. President, please 0.70

00:50:29.560 get a food taster immediately. If you put out a claim like that, you know, somebody may take you

00:50:36.080 up on it. It's a very serious claim, and we've got to think about this very seriously.

00:50:41.200 Kurt Mills, your thoughts? Yeah, I mean, this is, I don't know what could be more serious than this.

00:50:48.060 You know, what you described there is the rise and kill first doctrine, which was explained

00:50:52.340 in great detail by the New York Times reporter Ronan Bergman in the first Trump administration.

00:50:58.260 You know, Israel has assassinated, you know, we think more people, more political officials

00:51:05.640 than any, quote, Western government since World War II. 0.74

00:51:09.960 So, you know, Israel exists within its own plane.

00:51:13.960 Of course, the allegation funneled by Israeli intelligence

00:51:18.100 and then, of course, expounded upon by their allies in the United States

00:51:22.140 is that Iran is seeking to assassinate the president of the United States.

00:51:26.280 And, you know, we don't know.

00:51:28.700 That's the whole nature of allegations

00:51:30.500 and why allegations shouldn't ipso facto create action or policy.

00:51:36.500 But I think it's pretty conspicuous that those who are most keen on this are, for instance, allies of Mitch McConnell.

00:51:44.940 I thought it was extremely conspicuous this week that Mitch McConnell is on his deathbed or something approaching it.

00:51:53.520 He's not with his wife, but he's talking with former aides about what's the top agenda item?

00:51:59.040 Iran. And that is put out by the Scott Jennings person on CNN, and that's injected into the

00:52:05.460 mainstream and into President Trump's vision. And additionally, President Trump's so-called

00:52:12.220 battle instructions or battle plans. Look, I think Trump defies gravity more than any figure

00:52:17.240 in American history. But I don't think that any successor would be at all honor bound to

00:52:25.120 initiate this plan um so i think vance would do what he wanted but secondarily if vance were

00:52:30.880 honor bound somehow that creates this and this is not my observation glenn greenwald the great

00:52:35.600 journalist also um observed this that creates the greatest incentive for not iran to assassinate

00:52:44.020 uh president trump but somebody else yeah yeah i think kurt just hold on for a second we got a lot

00:52:49.900 more to break down here but the president very i mean very serious uh there's a great book out

00:52:54.600 if you want to find out more about this i think it's called rise and kill first it's uh it's

00:52:59.880 basically the philosophy of the massad that strikes first on this and it's uh

00:53:04.280 excruciatingly detailed and you can see they've got a they when they execute on this they execute

00:53:10.120 on this we've got kurt mills we're working on tina peters mike liddell we're going to talk about the

00:53:17.320 machines, right? Remember, I'm not a machine guy. However, they're a big part of all the problems

00:53:24.820 here. We'll take a short commercial break. We'll leave you with One Nation. Great, great, great
