Bannon's War Room - WarRoom Battleground EP 135： The Populist Uprising Continues; Biden Regime Continues The Economic Downturn Of The US; Irish Teacher Jailed For Not Using Pronouns; Groomers Endorsing Candidates In NC Election

00:00:00.000 This is what you're fighting for.

00:00:27.040 I mean, every day you're out there, what they're doing is blowing people off.

00:00:33.600 If you continue to look the other way and shut up, then the oppressors, the authoritarians,

00:00:38.480 get total control and total power. Because this is just like in Arizona. This is just like in Georgia. 0.52

00:00:44.320 It's another element that backs them into a quarter and shows their lies and misrepresentations.

00:00:49.280 This is why this audience is going to have to get engaged. As we've told you, this is the fight.

00:00:53.600 All this nonsense, all this spin, they can't handle the truth.

00:00:57.440 War Room Battleground. Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.

00:01:01.520 It's Monday, 12 September, the year of our Lord 2022. We're what, 57 days out from the most important

00:01:10.480 midterm election in the history of our nation, or at least since the early years of the Civil War in 1862.

00:01:17.440 We've got a couple of very intense, heavy hitters to start to show off. Ed Martin from the Eagle Council

00:01:23.280 and John Tamney, the editor of RealClearMarkets. John will be in a moment walking us through

00:01:28.560 that Biden-Harris economic plan they published as such fanfare last week, where I asked John

00:01:33.600 to give us the RealClearMarkets analysis. I want to start with Ed Martin.

00:01:38.000 Ed, so over the last couple of days, two things have happened. You've had Biden give the red scare

00:01:46.480 speech, the red demon speech, to basically defile Independence Hall. You then had, you know,

00:01:55.520 yesterday they defiled ground zero by, you know, Hillary Clinton, Warner, Mayorkas, Kamala Harris,

00:02:02.960 and Biden either giving speeches at ground zero, or at the Pentagon, or interviews where they

00:02:08.880 basically said, hey, terror, radical jihad is not a problem. The big problem is domestic terrorism.

00:02:15.280 And then, but, counter to that, the populist takeover in Canada, throughout the milquetoast

00:02:22.240 conservatives. We have a sweeping, massive tectonic plate shift victory with the Swedish Democrats

00:02:29.120 in Sweden, the most liberal and progressive of all. In fact, they threw Greta Thunberg in at the 1.00

00:02:34.400 last second to fight, quote unquote, racism and fascism. She got blown up. And of course,

00:02:37.840 they stopped the polling two weeks ago before Italy. The last poll shows Georgia Maloney surging 0.92

00:02:44.800 and pulling together a right-wing coalition with Salvini and others that could get over 50% of the vote.

00:02:51.520 Walk us through what has happened, both for the forces of dark and the forces of light, Ed Martin.

00:02:57.040 Well, look, Steve, what we're seeing, and you can feel it in this country, is that the people,

00:03:02.720 we the people, know what's at stake. You can feel it moving. That's why you see Biden get more and

00:03:08.400 more panicked. He goes up there. And by the way, let me tell you the one thing I don't think people

00:03:11.840 talk about enough. For a certain age, and Steve, I know you're that age I am, there was a book,

00:03:16.400 Clear and Present Danger. Clancy used it as a way to signal we had to fight against the Soviets. It was

00:03:22.560 down at the eighties. And what, what Biden said is we, the people, he looked at us and said,

00:03:27.680 you, the people are a clear and present danger, which means he can limit the constitutional

00:03:32.720 protections because we're a danger to him. We feel that right. And we're surging. And you know,

00:03:37.520 what I would tell people is what happened in Canada, the conservatives in Canada, the guy that's

00:03:42.560 winning is a old fashioned, about 45 years old, came from nothing, married a minority. He's a fighter. 0.98

00:03:49.200 He's a street fighter. And the people are drawn to the Canadian conservatives. Amazingly,

00:03:53.440 he fought the COVID stuff. He's surging, as you pointed out, same thing in Sweden. In Sweden,

00:03:58.720 the regular people, it's going to sound familiar, Steve, the regular people are sick of a government

00:04:04.160 that puts solar power over our family's pocketbook. And in Sweden, they call them the social Democrats.

00:04:12.000 They were in charge. They had windmills. They had the, all the crazy, uh, solar pushes.

00:04:18.080 Regular people said, we'll take the Swedish Democrats. That's the conservative wing.

00:04:21.760 And they're, they're surging in so much. So the guy that's winning in Sweden, the leader there

00:04:26.160 was actually, he was fairly clearly, uh, anti-immigrant. You know, he wanted to hold 0.99

00:04:31.280 all immigration and he's kind of basically said, yeah, that's who I am. And he's surging.

00:04:34.800 Here's the trick box, Steve. The world is seeing the populist movement. We, the people surging

00:04:41.600 in America, they're doing everything they can to tamp us down. They're knocking J6 families 1.00

00:04:48.320 off of the fundraising platforms. They're trying to take away, scare you from the polls. The only

00:04:54.160 thing that works is a massive surge to the polls. If we don't do it, if we say, well, either we're

00:05:00.400 winning already, we're going to be stuck with a Paul Ryan Pelosi kind of future, and we've got to fight

00:05:07.040 through it. So the world is giving us a playbook or at least showing us what can happen. As you point

00:05:11.760 out, even in Italy, they're surging and they had to slow it down. So it's all good, except we still

00:05:17.200 got 57 days and we got to get every single person to the poll and motivated and focused and get it

00:05:24.160 done. Is what connects the dots here is loss of sovereignty, because really the trucker convoy,

00:05:30.480 we had people on from Canada this morning said, hey, that was really what brought up to the Canadian

00:05:34.000 people. Something was deeply wrong with not just what Trudeau was doing, but that the conservatives

00:05:40.720 have really become controlled opposition. The same thing in Sweden, where they've been saying, hey,

00:05:45.520 we tried this mass immigration policy. It didn't work. It's been 15 years. Now we've got mass rapes, 0.56

00:05:51.440 no-go zones, and nobody wants to talk about it. We're finally going to talk about it, put it on

00:05:54.880 essentially the ballot, and people responded, particularly even in the urban areas among some

00:06:00.640 of the elites, people going in behind closed doors and voting for the Swedish Democrats.

00:06:04.560 And of course, Maloney's been saying for a while from Italy, we've lost our sovereignty,

00:06:08.720 not just to Davos, but we've lost it to the international capital markets, and we've lost it

00:06:12.960 to Brussels. So is that the connective tissue here, the loss of sovereignty and the populist movement

00:06:20.880 stands for getting our sovereignty back?

00:06:22.480 I think it is, Steve. And one of the only upsides of COVID was it laid bare the grab against we,

00:06:30.400 the people all across the world, right? You saw the connected. The World Health Organization is going

00:06:35.280 to define for us what the virus is. It's going to define for us, it's going to have our leaders

00:06:39.760 lying like Fauci to play the game at the top level. So I think that you're seeing it's a sovereignty

00:06:45.680 thing. But everything comes back to home. If you, a regular Americans feel like we're losing control

00:06:53.200 of our whole nation. So that, you know, you and I know it's sovereignty. Most people know it's like,

00:06:57.840 what's happening here? And they're looking up and they're seeing the old man yelling at them from

00:07:02.080 Independence Hall saying, you know, you can't be like this. You're like, wait, what am I trying to

00:07:06.240 do? All I want to do is have my family succeed, my neighbors, you know, flourish. And so I think that's

00:07:12.480 the common denominator. But you know, Steve, again, in the world, in history of these movements,

00:07:17.600 and we've talked about it off the air, as well as on the air, you get a mass movement going,

00:07:22.000 and you got to follow the right leaders, you get distracted by the shiny objects. And you say, oh,

00:07:28.000 what I really want to do is make a stand over here. In this nation, the way you do it is win at the

00:07:34.000 polls, you throw out the school boards, you know, Steve Maxwell has been on that's doing that and all

00:07:38.320 these guys, you get down and you win the House and Senate and demand accountability. You won't

00:07:43.200 get anything back by yelling at the World Health Organization on Facebook or Twitter. You do it by

00:07:48.720 getting the polls. And you know, Steve, again, I watch this stuff so close, and we work so hard at it.

00:07:53.360 If we get just a couple percentage points of our people being lazy or staying home, we'll lose,

00:07:59.200 right? We can't cheat as well as they can. We got to get everybody out and push hard. So I think it's

00:08:05.440 sovereignty. But also think for now, people got to get close to home. They got to want it for

00:08:10.240 themselves and their family. You got to be all wrong phrase, but be greedy for America right now.

00:08:16.880 And that's means we got to turn out on in November. We got to get the votes out.

00:08:22.480 There's there is no substitute for victory. People ask me, how do you stop this? Win at the polls,

00:08:27.680 give a shattering blow to the Democrats at the ballot box. Real quick, what is

00:08:32.000 Eagle Council doing about this? What would Phyllis Schlafly have us do right now?

00:08:37.120 Yeah, well, Phyllis, first of all, Eagle Council, if you go to EagleCouncil.com,

00:08:40.080 we're out in St. Louis. It's a group of key leaders, key grassroots folks, EagleCouncil.com.

00:08:45.600 Go there. Bannon's coming. Navarro's coming. We got Jay Ashcroft, the young Missouri Secretary of

00:08:50.240 State. We'll do some celebrating what mostly going forward. Look, Phyllis Schlafly did just what you said, 0.65

00:08:54.960 Steve. It's not interesting to be right, to be sincere. None of that matters unless you succeed.

00:09:02.720 Get your gear together. Figure out how you can make a difference. General Flynn was on your show

00:09:07.760 last week announcing. I heard from people all over the country. They said General Flynn is going to

00:09:11.600 work a poll in Sarasota, I think, down in Florida. Figure out where you can make a difference. What

00:09:16.560 Phyllis would say is, be right, be sincere, be smart, but then go succeed. That's the polling places.

00:09:22.000 You go to EagleCouncil.com. We do some training, some solidarity, some fortification, but mostly

00:09:27.040 we look out a few, you know, six weeks, seven weeks to where to win. Then we can do a lot

00:09:31.360 more work. We got to work with a new house, new Senate, new school boards, but EagleCouncil.com.

00:09:35.760 Steve, we got, we've got about 50, we've got about 50 tickets for this. Talk about the event

00:09:41.360 quickly on Saturday. We want to pack the house and actually add more tables. Where do people go?

00:09:47.200 EagleCouncil.com. Saturday night, we got Bannon, we got Peter Navarro, a bunch of other folks.

00:09:52.800 Go to EagleCouncil.com right at the airport Marriott in St. Louis. It's modestly priced,

00:09:57.920 $50 to come for the event, a VIP event beforehand. So EagleCouncil.com, Saturday, September 17th. By the

00:10:04.400 way, anniversary of the Constitution, we'll have some of the families of the January 6th prisoners,

00:10:09.760 and we'll be talking about that too, because that's a, that's one of the great affronts of this time

00:10:13.840 also. Ed, real quickly, what's your social media? How do people follow you personally?

00:10:20.240 At Eagle Ed Martin is on Twitter, Facebook, it's Ed Martin Live, and over on Gab and all the rest,

00:10:25.440 it's Ed Martin. Just go to Ed Martin. I'm out there on Truth also. Ed, thank you for joining us today

00:10:31.600 in teeing this up. I want to bring in John Tamney from Real Clear Markets. John, you've had the

00:10:37.280 chance to go through the Biden plan, but I want to tie it back to what Ed Martin just said,

00:10:44.240 that people in the country understand something's not right, and what they want to do is just get

00:10:47.360 ahead for their family. They want to be able to not just put food on the table. They want to increase

00:10:51.280 their net worth. They want to get some wealth. They want to have, stay ahead of inflation. How does that,

00:10:57.680 for the little guy and for the middle class, what does the Biden-Harris plan, economic plan,

00:11:04.400 give them, sir? It doesn't give them much of that at all. As we discussed before the show,

00:11:11.120 the goal is to increase spending, increase the government's footprint. Well, so all that means

00:11:15.840 is that Nancy Pelosi, and I would add Mitch McConnell and some Republicans too, will control

00:11:21.760 the resources in the economy instead of the free market. It can't be stressed enough that

00:11:27.440 entrepreneurs can't start businesses. Small businesses can't be given flight if government's

00:11:33.680 consuming all the wealth, and so this notion that they're going to help the little guy by putting more

00:11:39.120 control in Washington, it's just not a serious way of explaining an economy, and people will hopefully

00:11:44.880 see right through it. What is, what is, it's all centralized. Everything they're talking about,

00:11:51.520 and they've just passed, remember they passed the American Recovery Act, I think at a million,

00:11:56.080 1.9 trillion. They then passed this, this grab bag infrastructure bill at 1.2 trillion. Then they came

00:12:04.000 in late with the mini build back better at I think 800 billion. So they're up over what, almost three,

00:12:09.760 over three trillion dollars of spending. It's all centralized, and it's all for these sectors

00:12:16.000 that are kind of, not just ill-defined, but you really don't, you read their plan, you can't make

00:12:21.120 hide nor hair of it. There's a bunch of jargon in there, but you really don't see where they're going

00:12:25.440 to apply the capital. Am I incorrect there? It's just some centralized, almost like a centralized hedge

00:12:30.080 fund or venture capital fund. And really, when has central planning ever worked? Let's talk,

00:12:36.240 this is three trillion dollars. What was Bill Clinton's last budget in 19, or in 2000? It was

00:12:41.840 1.8 trillion. And so just in this, with these, as you point out, just new spending bills, they've

00:12:48.880 eclipsed Clinton's spending during that time. Is that going to grow the economy? Does it grow the

00:12:53.680 economy if the federal government is the allocator of resources? We know this from the 20th century.

00:13:00.160 There's no mystery here. The more central planning is, the more command and control there is,

00:13:04.320 the less growth is, the less, the less dynamism there is, the fewer new startups. And so, of course,

00:13:10.080 this is going to be a wet blanket on the economy. And again, I think voters broadly see through it.

00:13:14.960 They've never voted for big government in this country because we descend from people who wanted

00:13:20.960 not security, but opportunity. And so they're not going to go for this.

00:13:26.240 Let me ask you, you've got, you've got inflation now, you know, real incomes have dropped, I think,

00:13:33.060 16 or 17 consecutive months under Biden. They just announced the other day that we've had the

00:13:38.660 greatest drop in wealth of Americans. I think $2.6 trillion in the second quarter. Biggest drop

00:13:46.180 ever. That wasn't even including in the real estate. They hadn't marked the market of the real estate yet.

00:13:50.420 That was basically just stocks and bonds. How can, when you look at their plan, that they address

00:13:56.740 this twin problems of both inflation and this continual of just crushing value and really net

00:14:05.300 assets, net worth of the American people. Because the American family right now is getting at both

00:14:09.220 ends. Their real incomes are dropping every month and their net worth is dropping every month. And we

00:14:15.460 haven't even factored in the fact of what's going to happen in this crash of the real estate market is

00:14:19.700 going to come up. So John Tamney, give me your assessment of that.

00:14:25.300 Well, they're not even addressing inflation. And to be fair to the Democrats on this,

00:14:30.180 neither party has addressed inflation all of the 21st century. I've known you since I'm trying to

00:14:35.940 think around 2008. And we've been talking about the dollar during all that time. The last two

00:14:41.780 presidents to address the dollar were Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton, a Republican and a Democrat.

00:14:46.900 Let's go back in history. John F. Kennedy had it drummed into his head by his father growing up

00:14:52.500 that you do not leave dollar price stability. It's the most important price in the world is the

00:14:57.940 dollar. Republicans and Democrats ignore it. And so in ignoring it, they are ignoring inflation.

00:15:03.460 If there's inflation, and I believe what we're experiencing right now are higher prices born

00:15:08.340 of the lockdowns. I think these are the after effects of the hideous lockdowns. I don't call this

00:15:13.460 inflation. Inflation is a devaluation of the currency, but neither Joe Biden's not discussing

00:15:19.140 the dollar. Republicans refuse to discuss it. It's the most important subject simply because

00:15:24.100 Americans earn dollars. And when the dollar's price is unstable or when it's being devalued,

00:15:29.620 Americans see the value of their work being taken from them by stealth. But it's not

00:15:34.740 stealth. They know it's happening. At some point, some party is going to pick this issue back up,

00:15:41.060 as Ronald Reagan did back in 1980. Let me ask you, you've got, they just put in an emergency

00:15:48.500 measure for $47 billion in front of Congress for them to address when they come back starting

00:15:55.860 tomorrow. Most of that is spent on more COVID relief, more COVID research, monkey pox in Ukraine. 0.85

00:16:04.580 In addition, we've got the end of the fiscal year that takes place in two weeks. There's no

00:16:09.300 appropriations bill. There's nothing been approved. There's still far from, there's no open hearings.

00:16:14.180 There's still far from a deal. We're going to have to continue resolution. We know, and Biden

00:16:19.460 never wants to address this in the plan, but we know if you look at the plan and just add it up,

00:16:24.020 besides all the $3 trillion of kind of off the book spending, they've gotten approved.

00:16:30.340 We're looking at another $1.5 trillion to $2 trillion deficit, discretionary spending deficit

00:16:36.420 that taxes and fees don't pay for, because that basically pays for transfer payments right now,

00:16:42.180 even a little underwater for that. So John, just given the events we've got,

00:16:49.220 plus the debt ceiling that is coming upon us two weeks after the election, the fiscal,

00:16:54.420 fiscal, not just the monetary, but the fiscal irresponsibility of this administration and

00:16:58.580 the uniparty. What's your assessment of that? It's dangerous on its face, because as you described,

00:17:04.660 there's a lot of spending on the way, but think about what that signals about the future.

00:17:09.940 Pathogens are a part of life. They will exist as long as mankind exists. Look at the precedent we're

00:17:17.300 setting that every time some new virus that we logically don't understand at inception starts

00:17:24.260 spreading, that the role is for the federal government to massively expand its footprint and

00:17:30.500 massively expand its power over the individual to do what he or she would like to do. Let's never

00:17:37.620 forget that we, the individuals are the marketplace and our freedom is crucial at all times, but it's

00:17:44.340 most crucial when something like a coronavirus is spreading because we learn from our actions

00:17:50.180 how to avoid it, how to get it, if that's our goal, to achieve immunity. There's all sorts of things,

00:17:55.220 how business should operate in this new environment. With government stepping in the way,

00:17:59.860 it's not just consuming precious resources. It is stepping on the marketplace that would lead us

00:18:07.940 most quickly to an answer to society's many vexing questions. And so I think it's much bigger than the

00:18:14.260 spending. We are on a dangerous path that every time, oh, we have to come up with a cure first

00:18:18.420 before you get your freedom back, some kind of vaccine. This is not, we didn't come here for

00:18:22.580 security. We came here for freedom and we're trampling on the freedom.

00:18:28.180 Let me go back to, because real clear markets, you know, we talk to our audience every day about

00:18:32.820 going there and looking at all the links that you put up. If having assessed this Biden plan,

00:18:38.500 which is really not a plan, it's kind of a, it's kind of a, uh, a laundry list of things

00:18:42.340 they've accomplished and other money they want to spend. What would be your counter? Because the

00:18:46.820 Republicans, the one thing I noticed in economic policy, besides us hammering on the Fed all day

00:18:52.420 long and talking about dollar price stability, the Republicans don't really have, it appears,

00:18:57.220 a coherent response to this Democrats really funding of a super state, right? That's in every aspect of

00:19:04.020 your life and monetize. And they've got this transition to a green new deal, but that's kind

00:19:08.580 of ill-defined. What would you think would be at least the framework for a free market capitalist

00:19:15.540 response to what Biden in this, uh, in, in really the administrative states putting forward as their

00:19:21.540 plan? Well, how about that? They didn't create any of the jobs that they claim they created in, in

00:19:27.220 this, in this, in this booklet, they put out what created the jobs. It was the end of the lockdowns.

00:19:33.780 Let's go back in time to February of 2020. If memory serves, the U.S. economy was booming

00:19:39.940 and stock markets were at an all-time high as we priced in the spread of a virus around the world.

00:19:46.900 A month later, 25% of the American people were out of work, not to mention hundreds of millions

00:19:52.580 rushing towards starvation around the world as a consequence of the U.S. taking a break from reality.

00:19:57.700 You think that job creation or jobs are up since we've been given our freedom back?

00:20:03.780 But where was Joe Biden on this issue? Joe Biden was against the end of the lockdowns,

00:20:09.620 was against the return of freedom to the very people who had made the nation in the first place.

00:20:14.900 And so for him to take credit for job creation is awe-inspiring for the, for, for the presumptiveness

00:20:22.100 of, of it. He had nothing to do with it. And so where's the loud reaction? What's the impact?

00:20:26.740 Where's the impassioned reaction from our side saying that, you know, freedom always works.

00:20:31.540 In a natural free world, there's always going to be abundant jobs and corporations and all sorts of

00:20:36.420 things that we love. But that it did not come from the taking of it back in 2020. And when

00:20:42.260 the taking of it that President Biden supported and wants more of.

00:20:48.580 I want to deal with two things before we go. Number one,

00:20:52.420 energy being the heart of this. Remember under President Trump, the reason we had all-time

00:20:55.620 high stock markets, low inflation, you had blue collar workers, greater wage increases than white 0.98

00:21:02.980 collar, non-college grades or college grades. One of the reasons he made a centerpiece of his

00:21:06.980 economic plan, not energy independence, but full-spectrum energy dominance, right? Wherever

00:21:13.700 you are, whatever that vector is, full-spectrum energy dominance. Did you see anything the Biden

00:21:19.220 plan, particularly on energy, that was more than just a fantasy about the transition to some sort of

00:21:24.740 solar or wind that could be 30, 40, 50, 60 years away or never? Did you see anything that addressed

00:21:31.380 the energy crisis here in the United States, sir? No, of course not. And you know me,

00:21:36.260 my preference is that there be no energy policy at all. I don't see how energy is different from

00:21:40.420 anything else. If people are free, it's going to show up to them at a good price or a reasonably

00:21:45.300 good price. But with Biden, it's never about less of a plan. It's about more planning. And that's my

00:21:53.060 frustration with this in the blueprint and print more broadly. Why is it that every time

00:21:57.700 Democrats in particular want to achieve something, we have to lose more of our freedom? And a perfect

00:22:04.020 example is in the case of energy. It's not a goal to give the people more ways, more freedom to

00:22:10.740 produce or different ways to get energy to the marketplace. It's about how we are the problem.

00:22:18.500 It's about how our energy consumption is harming the world. It's making the world less of a place,

00:22:24.420 how it's causing the world to be flooded. So in order for the world to be made better,

00:22:29.620 Americans must be impoverished. So no, of course, there was no plan at all. It's just a goal, 0.99

00:22:34.740 a stated goal, at least, to take away from those with the least so that the earth can be saved. 0.71

00:22:40.660 It's always about enhancing the power of government at the expense of the people. And so it strikes me

00:22:45.460 that it's an easy one to respond to, but I don't see a lot of muscular responses. I see a lot of

00:22:50.980 me-tooism from our side saying, oh, no, no, no, energy consumption doesn't cause global warming.

00:22:56.660 Well, wait a second. Let's assume for a second it does. In a capitalist system, we would come up

00:23:02.260 with advances to mitigate the effects of it. And I reject the notion altogether. But at some point,

00:23:07.060 Republicans need to stand up for the fact that energy consumption is a market act. People should

00:23:13.060 be free to engage in market acts. Let's go to finish. I want to go back to dollar price

00:23:20.740 stability and the whole issue of devaluation of currency and the politics of money. For Birch

00:23:25.780 Gold, I've been putting up this series of the loss of being the prime reserve currency,

00:23:31.140 the politics of money in the 19th century. What's your assessment of that? Give us a couple of minutes

00:23:35.540 on how do we get to dollar price stability? What would be the John Tammany take on this?

00:23:39.540 Well, I think it's kind of interesting that people forget this. And I've talked to you about

00:23:44.020 this because it was a major theme in a book that we both love, Robert Bartley's The Seven Fat Years.

00:23:48.980 Ronald Reagan ran on returning to a gold standard. Now, people can love or hate the gold standard,

00:23:54.820 but his broad point was that a currency that has commodity backing is a trusted currency.

00:24:01.780 And so it's very simple. We could solve dollar price stability between breakfast and lunch.

00:24:07.620 All you need to do is say that the dollar, that money per Adam Smith, its sole use is to circulate

00:24:14.180 consumable goods. We use money to move wealth around. And so logically it's stable. And so the

00:24:20.580 goal should be not for the government to control more money, but for government to just define it. If

00:24:25.940 it's going to issue a dollar, it should have stability as a measure, because in having a stability

00:24:31.380 as a measure, it means the Americans who earn dollars will not consistently see the value of

00:24:37.940 the dollars they earn erode such that they get less and less in return for their work. And so to me,

00:24:44.420 it's a politically grand thing. It's something that both parties historically have supported this notion

00:24:49.540 that people shouldn't have their wealth taken from them by currency stealth. And you could do it very

00:24:55.460 easily because just as we define a foot as 12 inches, as an ounce as 16 ounces a pound, you can

00:25:04.420 define the dollar in terms of something real. And the result would be very quick,

00:25:09.380 monstrous economic growth, because instead of investing in inflation hedges, Americans would

00:25:15.540 once again start investing in future wealth creation. It would be the greatest job creator in

00:25:21.460 history, the greatest driver of advancing history. And one of these days, one of the political

00:25:25.700 parties is going to embrace it. Bill Clinton did. He succeeded. Ronald Reagan did. He succeeded.

00:25:31.860 George W. Bush rejected dollar price stability. So did Jimmy Carter. They failed.

00:25:39.700 John, how do people get to you? Real Clear Markets know how to get there. How do the people

00:25:45.060 get to you and follow you? Yeah, you can find me at Real Clear Markets. You can find me at

00:25:49.380 freedomworks.org. I'm still on Twitter at John Tamney. You can also find me on Amazon. I've got

00:25:56.020 five books out. I've got my sixth coming out that I've told you about. It's titled The Money Confusion,

00:26:01.700 how illiteracy about currencies and inflation sets the stage for the crypto revolution. And so this is a

00:26:08.900 very short 41,000-word book that explains what money is, why people use it, and hopefully will bring

00:26:17.140 about a better conversation about money that's going to redound to all Americans simply because no one

00:26:22.500 benefits from a currency that is unstable, that's constantly losing value. What's the street

00:26:30.420 date? What's the publishing date of that book? It's October 18th.

00:26:34.340 October 18th. October 18th. We're going to do a big run-up to that book. John Tamney,

00:26:40.260 one of the smartest guys out there, the editor at Real Clear Markets. John, thank you for taking

00:26:44.500 apart the Biden-Harris plan, central planning to the nth degree. That's why it's such an epic fail.

00:30:13.860 Warroom Battleground with Stephen K. Bannon.

00:30:18.900 Okay, welcome back. I want to start with James Roguski. James, thank you for joining us. One of the

00:30:24.900 things I've really admired about you, I call you the, all along the watchtower, you are constantly

00:30:30.740 looking out of what's happening out of Geneva, World Health Organization, these others, for all

00:30:35.780 the games they're trying to play. You've been at the forefront of making sure we got on top of this

00:30:39.860 when they're trying to change regulations or trying to change rules. But there's an opening here that

00:30:44.660 you've identified everybody. We had you in the morning show, but I want to finish the day with saying,

00:30:49.220 hey, we got, what, 12 hours left or 13 hours left because I want everybody in the posse that

00:30:54.740 clearly has something to say to have a shot to do it at the time it should be done that we can

00:30:59.620 obviously collate things later afterwards. But walk people through, what is this? What are these 90

00:31:05.140 second videos? How important are those? And most importantly, how they get them done?

00:31:08.740 The timing is such that as we speak right now, it's almost one o'clock, 11 a.m. Eastern time

00:31:18.340 Tuesday is the deadline that takes the 5 p.m. Geneva time. So there's, you know, maybe 19 hours to go.

00:31:24.820 And the WHO is accepting that they set up a site on their page on their website where people can upload

00:31:33.780 or record a video. Please realize that you can pre-record and upload it. A lot of people don't

00:31:39.540 scroll down on their page far enough to be able to do that. But essentially they have made, in my mind,

00:31:45.380 the mistake of asking the world to let them know what we think. And you can create a 90 second video.

00:31:54.100 The question that they want to have is, you know, what should the WHO do, you know, internationally

00:32:00.340 to deal with the next pandemic? And quite frankly, that's a trick question wrapped up in a psychological

00:32:07.220 operation. They're framing the question. They want people to answer a specific question.

00:32:12.900 And what I've realized is that this is just a propaganda tool for the WHO. They're going to

00:32:22.980 believe that, you know, they can put this out there and people won't, you know, have time to know what's

00:32:28.340 going on. They'll have all kinds of their own people putting in, you know, glowing praises for

00:32:34.740 the WHO and so forth. They're going to compile them into two, three hour videos. And as of 11 a.m.

00:32:41.780 tomorrow morning, they're going to shut down their public comment. And I'm saying that's when we're

00:32:47.780 going to crank it up from today, right now on till the end of the month. I'm encouraging everyone to

00:32:54.820 not limit themselves to just 90 seconds like they want to have, you know, for the remainder of today

00:33:00.180 and tomorrow morning. Take 90 minutes. Take as long as you want to express your feelings about the WHO.

00:33:09.700 You can go to screwthewho.com. It'll give you all the information about sending your video to them or

00:33:17.140 to me and other groups. But you can also go to stopthewho.com to learn what they're up to because

00:33:24.020 they're currently, every member nation is submitting proposals along two tracks. One of the tracks is a

00:33:32.660 new pandemic treaty. And the other track is what they did earlier this year, trying to propose

00:33:39.700 amendments to the international health regulations. And frankly, that's the scarier one because they've

00:33:45.860 been very, very silent about that. And that could happen as early as next May. And so this is a

00:33:53.140 chance for people to speak, give public comment in the form of a video. If you go to screwthewho.com,

00:34:02.100 or if you call me and I'll give my number at the end of when we're talking because people call it

00:34:07.700 immediately and that'll mess up the transmission of what we're doing right now. But I'm here to answer

00:34:13.460 everybody's questions about the technology and, you know, doing your videos and helping you out.

00:34:18.580 But it's not going to end tomorrow when they say it ends. It ends, we say it ends.

00:34:26.820 I just want to make sure you're also tracking those two other items where they're trying to

00:34:30.740 change the regulations, they're trying to change the rules, they're trying to concentrate more

00:34:34.660 power to themselves. That's what you're principally on watch. This is a subset of that, correct?

00:34:40.100 Exactly. On stopthewho.com, all the information about the quote unquote pandemic treaty, which is

00:34:47.780 one track. The other track are amendments to the international health regulations. Long story short,

00:34:55.540 if the WHO had the power and the legal authority that they wanted, they wouldn't need having these

00:35:03.220 negotiations to change international law along those two tracks. They operate under Article 23 of

00:35:11.860 their constitution and they make the recommendations. But our government agencies and our people and our

00:35:18.580 media misinterpret the fact that they're just taught. They're just nothing but taught. But if you

00:35:26.180 misinterpret that as an obligation and think that you need to hand over your sovereignty to them and do

00:35:33.860 what they say, it's time to get better information because that is not the current situation.

00:35:40.980 By the way, after we take over the House, there are going to be massive investigations. You'll see

00:35:45.220 James testifying in front of Jordan and these guys because people are going to get to the bottom of this

00:35:50.820 of this whole nonsense of the WHO can dictate to the United States or work with Fauci and these guys to

00:35:55.540 do it. James, give your number and then one more time your social media.

00:36:00.260 And this is the time for people to take action. Go to screwthewho.com. All of the details are there

00:36:06.740 and you can call me directly at 310-619-3055. I'd be happy to help anybody understand what in the

00:36:14.900 heck the WHO is up to. By the way, James is a brave man giving his number out on the war room. So,

00:36:23.220 James, you're a patriot and a hero. Thank you for coming on. Well, since this morning, I've gotten a

00:36:28.260 bunch of phone calls. You know, I got to meet people right around the corner from me, in all seriousness.

00:36:32.900 Where I live, you know, they called just down the street. It's really pretty funny.

00:36:39.220 Fantastic. James, thank you so much.

00:36:43.220 We got a couple of disturbing stories, a couple of disturbing stories, and then one

00:36:47.140 upbeat story of somebody from the precinct straight to get involved. But I got to go to

00:36:50.260 Colin McCoy from National File. Colin, thank you very much for joining us. I'm not sure I totally

00:36:57.300 understand the story because it's so over-the-top and bizarre. And I'm Irish, and that's why I try

00:37:04.260 to follow things that are happening in Ireland. What happened? Is this a teacher because of his,

00:37:08.900 I just want to make sure, this is a teacher because of his Christian beliefs would not call

00:37:13.380 people by their pronouns that his school demanded? And did he actually get put in jail? Is that what your

00:37:21.380 story is? Yes, Steve, you do have that right. Unfortunately, Enoch Burke is a teacher at the

00:37:29.300 Wilson's Hospital School in County Westmeath, Ireland. He was placed on administrative leave

00:37:34.980 first after questioning the school, which is a Christian school, by the way. It's an Anglican school

00:37:39.620 under the Church of Ireland. He questioned the policy where teachers and staff were required to

00:37:45.460 refer to students by whichever pronoun they prefer. And he brought this up at an anniversary meeting.

00:37:52.900 The school has been around for over 200 years. He brought this up with the principal. He objected

00:37:57.620 to it and said that he believes that adhering to the policy of calling students by their preferred

00:38:03.780 pronouns would violate his Christian beliefs. He was then placed on administrative leave. And not only that,

00:38:08.500 they filed a court order against him to prevent him from even stepping foot on the property.

00:38:13.780 So he continued to do it, arguing that the policy itself violates his religious beliefs, Christian

00:38:19.620 beliefs. And after that, a judge issued a warrant for his arrest. He was taken to a prison in Dublin

00:38:26.420 last Monday. And he's still there. He was in court again today, actually, challenging the legality of

00:38:32.260 the court's policy or the school's policy. But that was thrown out by the judge. He's due back in court

00:38:38.420 on Wednesday. And this is a contempt charge. So at any point, he could purge his contempt and say he

00:38:44.420 was wrong, or that's what the court and the school wants him to say. They want him to go back on it and

00:38:50.020 say that he would adhere to the policy. He has refused to do that. He is standing up for his beliefs,

00:38:56.100 and he's willing to take some jail time in order to do that.

00:39:02.180 Colin, this is what? This is one of the oldest, over 20 years old, revered school in all Ireland.

00:39:10.020 The Church of Ireland, just for our audience, is the equivalent of the Church of England. It's the

00:39:13.300 Episcopal or Anglican Church. This is a revered school in that religion, in the kind of official

00:39:21.060 Christian faith. How could they possibly take a faculty member who said, because of my Christian

00:39:27.140 belief, I don't believe in this? How could they put him on administrative leave, much less actually

00:39:33.460 want him, serve him to make sure he doesn't come back on campus and see this guy go to jail? That's

00:39:39.220 what boggles. Look, the first part's bad enough. But when you describe the whole thing, how can a

00:39:44.500 revered Christian institution be doing this, sir? Well, I think it's just a continuation of 0.96

00:39:52.580 something that we're seeing across society, where the whole Marxist, leftist push for all these things,

00:40:00.580 like pronouns and whatnot, it's part of a civic religion. It's basically like a civic orthodoxy,

00:40:06.740 and it affects the Catholic Church. It affects the Anglican Church. We've had bishops and cardinals in

00:40:13.460 the US who have called for the Catholic Church to amend its beliefs on LBGT teachings and

00:40:20.980 transgender ideology. And we see it in Western Europe. And it's especially pronounced in Ireland,

00:40:27.700 where it's a historically very Catholic country with a high rate of church-going families.

00:40:34.660 They were opposed to abortion. They were opposed to gay marriage. And within the past 15 years,

00:40:39.220 much like the US, that has completely reversed. And I think it speaks to just how overwhelming the

00:40:48.820 pressure is to stand up against these things, not even just in secular society, but we're now starting

00:40:54.580 to see it in religious circles, where a supposed Christian school will place a teacher on administrative

00:41:03.620 leave for going against or just upholding beliefs that are outlined in the Bible.

00:41:11.060 So it is very disturbing. It shows just how relentless it is. But it's such an intriguing

00:41:19.700 story because Enoch Burke is seemingly really taking a stand here. He could just go back on it,

00:41:26.820 and this whole thing could end for him today, but he's choosing not to. He's choosing to stand up.

00:41:31.700 And this is really shining a light on how far these policies have gone. I mean,

00:41:36.740 we look at 10 years ago, and Barack Obama was afraid to even, or he wouldn't even publicly

00:41:42.740 back gay marriage. Now you have schools where they not only have preferred pronouns,

00:41:48.340 but administrators will email teachers. The most recent example of this I saw in Mentor,

00:41:53.220 Ohio, they have a policy. And I know here in the Philadelphia area, I know the Rose Tree Media

00:41:58.100 school district, the Haverford school district have policies like this, where if students want

00:42:02.260 to be referred to by a certain pronoun, the schools not only have to adhere to that, but they're not

00:42:07.860 even allowed to tell parents. So it's become such a religion among the left that they believe it's,

00:42:15.780 they have a moral obligation to tell these kids what they can do or what they can transition to or refer

00:42:22.900 themselves to, regardless of what their parents believe or their parents' religious beliefs.

00:42:30.500 Is this story catching on in Ireland like it is here in the United States? Is he becoming a hero

00:42:35.620 for standing up for this? Or is this just not in the public mind? Or is it the opposite? Are people

00:42:41.300 saying that this guy's cruel, this guy's a bully?

00:42:44.420 Well, I guess it really depends on who you ask. The press has been hitting him pretty hard. The

00:42:50.740 Irish Times and the mainstream outlets in Ireland have been against him. It's the same as it is here

00:42:57.380 in pretty much the entire West. These outlets are very against this sort of thing. They're very in

00:43:03.700 favor of the new civic religion. So he's been getting ripped apart in the press a fair amount,

00:43:09.140 but there have been protests outside the prison, Mount Joy Prison in Dublin. His brother Isaac Burke,

00:43:15.940 Enoch Burke represented himself in court today. His brother was co-counsel. Isaac Burke has been

00:43:22.260 pretty vocal in spreading the word about this. It does seem to be catching on. I mean,

00:43:26.420 the longer this goes on, we're going on day seven now. The court's going to revisit this matter on

00:43:31.780 Wednesday. But it's possible that he could be in there for a long time. He could be in there for weeks,

00:43:36.820 months. It's however long he chooses to refuse to purge his contempt and basically give the school

00:43:46.740 and the courts what they're looking for here, which he believes violates his religious conviction. So

00:43:54.580 it seems to be catching on. But I mean, the Queen news cycle is pretty prevalent over there,

00:44:03.060 the whole world right now. So that seems to be taking some of the oxygen out of it.

00:44:06.500 Well, we're going to be all over. I know National File is, how do people get to you? Reporting is

00:44:11.060 unbelievable. We love the National File. Tell us how people can track you down and follow the story.

00:44:17.380 We definitely appreciate that, Steve. National File, we are on just about every social media.

00:44:22.420 They banned us from YouTube, but you can find us on Twitter, Facebook, Gab, Rumble, Instagram,

00:44:28.740 Telegram. And we definitely have a lot of coverage of these types of stories, particularly in the U.S.

00:44:37.700 We have a lot more stories like this regarding the pronoun policies coming out in the next few weeks.

00:44:44.180 Nice. It's unbelievable. Real quickly, your own personal social media, how do people track you down?

00:44:49.780 You can find me at Colin McHugh. I'm on Twitter and Gab for the most part. But yeah, at Colin McHugh.

00:45:00.100 Colin, tell Nolan the guys, great job over there. Fantastic work. National File, Colin McHugh.

00:45:04.340 I want to go to, let me go to Sloan Rockman. Sloan, this would be no surprise to you and to the moms 0.98

00:45:11.860 down there in North Carolina, the Tar Heel State that are fighting every day. I mean, this story blows

00:45:16.500 people's heads up. We talk about what's happening in Ireland, but you're seeing this up close and

00:45:20.100 personal. Tell us what's going on, particularly PAC money coming in and supporting. This agenda is so

00:45:26.180 radical, so dangerous to our children and to our families. Tell us what's going on in the Tar Heel State. 0.98

00:45:31.140 Yeah, it's absolutely terrible. I mean, Colin is a tough act to follow. And I know Noel and all

00:45:36.260 the guys at National File, they do a great job of breaking these stories. But you're right. This is

00:45:42.420 no surprise to us. We're in this all day and every day at Ed First Alliance. Our PAC is dedicated to

00:45:47.860 getting America First candidates elected all up and down the ballot. We know the Senate race is very

00:45:53.460 important here with Ted Budd. So is US House race one in 13. But look, our state house, I mean,

00:45:59.620 we've got to get the supermajority here because we've got one of the most woke governors that you'll 0.99

00:46:05.620 ever encounter, and that would be Roy Cooper. So we've got to take care of all that. So we've paid

00:46:11.780 meticulous attention to the special elections that have gone on here in this state and across the country.

00:46:18.260 And we've seen this, Steve, that the Republicans who back away or run away really from exposing this

00:46:25.860 traverse dystopian future that the Democrats and the left have for our children, those candidates lose.

00:46:32.900 That's why we need every Republican to seize the agenda and stay on messaging. So all the Republican

00:46:41.300 candidates out there and their campaign surrogates, they need to ask Democrats the following things.

00:46:46.260 Number one, how exactly is it that girls and women benefit from competing against boys

00:46:53.140 on the athletic teams? Number two, how come it is that girls and women are no longer able to have 0.93

00:47:00.260 their own public restroom showers or changing rooms? How about number three, explain please, Democrat

00:47:08.100 candidate, why showing children pornography is going to help the literacy crisis that's plaguing

00:47:15.220 school after school in this country? And finally, Steve, this is something you and I talked about

00:47:20.100 earlier, is how are you, candidate or opponent, how are you going to protect children from the

00:47:27.380 neutralization and sterilization movement brought to us by these child grooming lobbies? And if Republicans

00:47:35.780 can do that, Steve, they're going to win and they're going to win bigly.

00:47:39.380 Okay. I want to go back. You said child grooming lobbies. Now that's going to make people's heads

00:47:45.940 blow. Be specific. What are you talking about? And it takes a level of courage, ma'am, to stand up

00:47:51.780 and go against this because you're going to be, you're going to be thrown at your country club.

00:47:54.740 You're going to be called, you know, a mean person. But when you say grooming lobbies,

00:47:59.460 what do you mean by that? Because I can see already media matters in, in, in going into the, uh,

00:48:04.580 going into high overdrive that, you know, we've got another one of these crazy moms on here 1.00

00:48:08.820 that are just throwing out, uh, you know, unsupportable, uh, vitriol.

00:48:14.980 Well, I'm glad you asked for clarification. This isn't just hyperbole. Let me give you the prime

00:48:19.540 example here in North Carolina. Uh, it's called equality in sea and it, their pack. Okay. It presents,

00:48:28.020 uh, you know, money coming in, et cetera, and they're entitled to do that. And we get it.

00:48:32.260 The real danger here are the lobbyists that they have put in at the state house. They have put a

00:48:39.220 team of lobbyists in, in North Carolina. And as you know, lobbyists have an inordinate amount of

00:48:46.580 budget and time that they can spend with every lawmaker. And they do hitting them up for things

00:48:53.300 like opposition, uh, to safeguards. For instance, one, a court case just came up where now in North

00:49:02.020 Carolina, the, uh, state employees, all of their sex change operations have to be paid for and their

00:49:10.260 children with our taxpayer dollars. So this is something that equality in sea has lobbied,

00:49:16.180 um, you know, all of our politicians for when they couldn't do that, Steve, they went the judicial

00:49:21.300 route and now they're using the court for activism. Another thing that they've done is worked on our

00:49:26.580 Republicans, uh, the, uh, women in sports act that we sought to pass last April. Well, they worked on 0.81

00:49:34.100 our, uh, uh, speaker pro tem 10 more so hard that he even came out and said, yeah, we're not going to

00:49:40.500 protect girls and women from having boys play against them on our sports team because there's

00:49:45.860 not really a problem yet. Well, we know that that's because this powerful lobby has been working these

00:49:52.020 guys over and their staff. Don't forget day after day after day. Now this equality in sea,

00:49:57.700 let's get back to this ghoulish practice of, uh, utilization and sterilization. Equality in sea

00:50:04.340 is going to be, um, keynoting and helping sponsor a conference. I believe it's next month or the month

00:50:10.820 after here at wake forest medical school on such things as how, yeah, I mean, this is a venerable

00:50:18.660 organization. Sloan, Sloan, we, we got a heart out. Uh, we're going to be back at 10 o'clock

00:50:24.580 tomorrow real quickly. What's your social media? How do people get to your site to find out more

00:50:28.580 about this in the Tar Heel state? Funny you should ask, but you told me that it was coming.

00:50:33.060 Facebook is in the process of kicking me off. So you can find me on Twitter for now. It's

00:50:37.540 Rackmouth and at Ed first and see, but our telegram channel, it is hopping education. First Alliance,

00:50:44.260 hit us up. You we've got to all stand for our children.

00:50:50.740 Sloan Rockbent. Thank you very much. Tough fight down there in woke Carolina, but fight on.

00:50:56.020 See you back here tomorrow morning in the war room at 10 AM. We will be four

00:51:00.180 hours of fire tomorrow. Join us then.
