Bannon`s War Room

Episode 4840: MAGA Victory: Letitia James INDICTED

09 Oct 2025

Transcription

Chapter 1: What led to Letitia James being indicted?

0.031 - 6.128 Unknown

New York Attorney General Letitia James has been indicted. Andrew Weissman, your reaction?

0

6.148 - 40.892 Andrew Weissman

I think that I want to sort of address the people who might look at this and say this is sort of tit for tat, that you see that in the Democratic administration, you see them going after Republicans and this is Republicans going after Democrats. Two wrongs don't make a right, even if that were true. But this is where facts matter.

0

41.753 - 58.472 Andrew Weissman

In the Letitia Jaynes case that she brought in New York, there was a trial. Facts were induced. We all could look at those facts. And Donald Trump had a chance and opportunity to have due process and to hear all of that.

0

58.452 - 82.468 Andrew Weissman

Here, the process by which this has been undertaken, like the process that was undertaken with respect to James Comey, tells you that career people and even Trump-appointed people did not think that there was evidence. There were not facts that justified this.

0

Chapter 2: How do the speakers perceive the indictment as politically motivated?

82.448 - 107.239 Andrew Weissman

And I think a perfect, a perfect symbol of the fact that this is different, that what we're seeing is different, it is not normal, it is not everyone does it, is to take a look at Abby Lowell. Abby Lowell is the defense lawyer for Letitia James. He was also the defense lawyer for Hunter Biden.

0

108.261 - 135.933 Andrew Weissman

In the Biden administration, the Department of Justice actually charged and convicted the sitting president's son And Abby Lowell represented him and defended him and lost that trial. And he is now defending Letitia James. And to me, when people say it's tit for tat, it's like, no, in the in prior administrations.

0

135.994 - 155.098 Andrew Weissman

And by the way, Republican and Democratic administrations at their normal times, which I agree with Mark, are gone. under normal times in those administrations, there is no politics that is supposed to be considered. I'm not saying it's never considered and there aren't those aberrations.

0

155.539 - 180.327 Unknown

Letitia James herself, I understand from sources, was fully expecting that she would be indicted, again, keeping in mind that the standard for indicting someone is the probability that there may be a crime that was committed. And it's a very low standard, but she was expecting this and bracing for it herself. Prosecutors in the Eastern District of Virginia

0

180.307 - 198.417 Unknown

Some of them driven out by their decision not to bring this case. Some of them resigning in disgust about other cases that Donald Trump is pressing and insisting upon. He wants to get to all the hits in his enemies list. Those people have been.

198.397 - 216.843 Unknown

really tortured about all of this because for them, not only is this not a righteous case, not only is this not a justified case, but for them, it does not even meet the bare minimum for the evidence that has to be presented at trial to sustain a conviction.

219.607 - 241.145 Steve Bannon

This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies, because we're going medieval on these people. I got a free shot on all these networks lying about the people. The people have had a belly full of it. I know you don't like hearing that. I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it. It's going to happen.

241.166 - 251.202 Unknown

And where do people like that go to share the big line? Mega media. I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.

251.182 - 261.468 Steve Bannon

Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose? If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.

Chapter 3: What role did Abby Lowell play in the Letitia James case?

542.135 - 566.088 Mike Davis

So I think Big Tish is in big trouble now in the Eastern District of Virginia federal court. Let me make this last point, Steve. This isn't some right-wing grand jury. This is in the Eastern District of Virginia in Alexandria, the Alexandria division. I worked there many years ago. This is loaded up with... Democrats, government workers, and illegal immigrants.

0

566.309 - 578.005 Mike Davis

That's the Eastern District of Virginia. So it seems like it's a pretty strong case by U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan, President Trump's all-star U.S. Attorney in the Eastern District of Virginia.

0

579.968 - 591.705 Steve Bannon

She goes back-to-back days. She's bringing big charges against big people, defending the little guy. It looks like every other day. Am I correct on this?

0

592.158 - 612.428 Mike Davis

Yeah, I mean, yeah, I mean, Big Jim Comey is like, what is he, like six foot seven? He just got indicted by Lindsey Halligan and the grand jury. And then now Big Tish James. So back to back, she is bringing accountability and justice. And I would say to these Democrats,

0

612.408 - 635.766 Mike Davis

who said this to us for four years, actually really eight years of lawfare, but particularly bad over the last four years, that if the grand jury indicts, obviously the charges are legitimate because the grand jury indicts and nobody's above the law. And, you know, she... So I think we can use the same thing that they said, including Tish James, by the way. Remember before...

635.746 - 660.358 Mike Davis

The election for her attorney general election, Tish James actually campaigned on the fact that she's going to weaponize her office to go after President Trump. And she did. She did. And guess what? Yeah. Revenge is best served cold, Big Tish. Gosh. Lawyer up, sweetheart. It's going to be... I will say this. Steve, I will say this for Big Tish.

660.558 - 675.041 Mike Davis

I hear from people that going to prison puts you on a prison diet and helps you... Whoa. Whoa. It helps you get to better health when you go on that prison diet.

676.042 - 699.279 Steve Bannon

Maybe someone here knows. I lost... I lost 35 pounds. It was the best shape I've been in in decades because you're working out, walking every day. I want to go to two things. The engine room, one of the multiple engine rooms of the war room asked the following question. How can she be attorney general in the state of New York? If she's indicted on felony charges, can't Holcomb remove her?

699.319 - 710.37 Steve Bannon

Shouldn't she be removed or at least take a sabbatical and step aside while she's going to trial and under indictment?

Chapter 4: What are the implications of the indictment for Donald Trump?

757.651 - 777.837 Mike Davis

on this indictment. So I think these MSNBC people are, it's a bit of wishful thinking on their part. And it's amazing how they've totally changed their tune on this because I remember when Democrats were indicting Trump and his top aides like you and Peter Devaro and

0

777.817 - 794.099 Mike Davis

or at least charging you and Peter DeVaro and Jeff Clark and his supporters on January 6th and going after parents and Christians, they always said that if there's a grand jury indictment, if there are charges, it's obviously legitimate. So by their same standard, obviously this is legitimate. Look, it's pretty clear-cut.

0

794.479 - 803.211 Mike Davis

Did she say on her mortgage application that her primary residence was Virginia? And if she did, that's a clear-cut case of mortgage fraud.

0
0

803.939 - 824.183 Steve Bannon

Simple. Boy, can you hang on for a second? I want to get into Weissman and these guys because Donald Trump had due process. Trump had a trial. Yo, we just got an indictment. Also, Weissman is trying to stand. The reason he's yammering and all very nervous. Weissman, you're near the top of the list. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. We're coming after you too, bro.

825.224 - 847.259 Steve Bannon

Don't think you're going to slip out of here. I actually think MSNBC will ultimately be investigated with the media being in collusion with many of these insurrectionists and revolutionaries and terrorists. As terrorist violence escalates in the United States of America, we've got to get to the bottom of it. I've certainly got to get to the bottom of it.

847.279 - 870.353 Steve Bannon

The financing of it, how it's organized, who their media partners are, what people know. Also, Julie Kelly couldn't be with us today. She hopefully tomorrow, if everything works out. She did send me a tweet that there's a report that Christopher Wray is under investigation. In fact, it may even be to a grand jury. Halligan and company are moving rapidly. And we know who the punch list is.

870.513 - 898.814 Steve Bannon

Brennan McCabe. McCabe talked about right after President Trump won about, you know, being so nervous, having conversations to leave the country. Hey, bro. You know, better late than never. Big Tish James indicted with a felony that brings a long time in prison. Mike Davis on the other side. Also, we've got Dave Bratt. We're going to Indiana about the redistricting pact today. Also, world peace.

900.858 - 924.717 Steve Bannon

Let me be blunt. Gold is up around 40% this year. That's not speculation. That is reality. And if a portion of your savings isn't diversified into gold, you're missing the boat. Here's the facts. Inflation is still too high. The U.S. dollar is still too weak. The government debt is insurmountable. This is why central banks are flocking to gold. They're the ones driving prices up to record highs.

Chapter 5: How do the speakers view the fairness of the legal process?

1030.296 - 1046.959 Andrew Weissman

In the Letitia Jaynes case that she brought in New York, there was a trial. Facts were adduced. We all could look at those facts. And Donald Trump had a chance and opportunity to have due process and to hear all of that.

0

1046.939 - 1073.925 Andrew Weissman

Here, the process by which this has been undertaken, like the process that was undertaken with respect to James Comey, tells you that career people and even Trump-appointed people did not think that there was evidence. There were not facts that justified this. And I think a perfect... He's babbling.

0

1073.905 - 1101.16 Steve Bannon

He's babbling because he's nervous. I'm going to do an analysis. How many MSNBC contributors are going to be indicted? Also, how many MSNBC hosts are going to be indicted? We're coming, bros. We're coming. Coming for you. You're not a news channel. You're an offensive information warfare weapon. That's okay. We're in that business, too. Remember, they came after us, coming after you.

0

1101.18 - 1119.879 Steve Bannon

Oh, it's not tick for tack. Mike Davis and Big Tish. I think Big Tish, as they get into it, there'll be other charges on Big Tish. Right. So just answer Weissman, though, about, oh, my gosh, President Trump. And this is so terrible and so awful. And President Trump got such a good deal from Big Tish, sir.

0

1120.941 - 1141.718 Mike Davis

It's amazing that Andrew Weissman is saying that it was an unfair process with the Comey and Big Tish indictments. when he has no idea what the process was because it was the first step, the grand jury proceedings, and those are secret. He has no idea if it was a fair or unfair process within the grand jury.

1141.738 - 1162.987 Mike Davis

And he said, oh, there's not evidence for the career lawyers to move forward with these indictments. Well, guess what? The grand jury thought there was probable cause to move forward with these indictments because the grand jury returned true bills, both on James Comey and on Big Tish James.

1163.047 - 1188.576 Mike Davis

And again, this is a grand jury in the eastern district of Virginia, the suburb of Chicago that is loaded up with Democrats. government workers and illegal immigrants. It's not the Southern District of Texas, right? And so if this grand jury thought there was enough evidence to move forward with indictments, then there was enough evidence to move forward with indictments.

1188.676 - 1209.119 Mike Davis

And Andrew Weissman pretends like President Trump got due process and fair trials with Tish James in New York. No, this goofball Manhattan judge, Arthur Ingeron, did not give President Trump the ability to present evidence, to present witnesses, to confront witnesses.

1209.6 - 1231.386 Mike Davis

Big Tish James, as the candidate for New York Attorney General, campaigned on the fact that she's going to go after President Trump. That's not due process. Andrew Weissman had a much different tune when the Democrats were running this lawfare against President Trump, his top aides, his allies, his supporters, parents,

Chapter 6: What are the potential consequences for Letitia James?

2065.69 - 2069.398 Steve Bannon

And what's the process we actually have to get done to get this approved?

0

2070.155 - 2084.634 Andrew Ireland

Yeah, so, I mean, you know, kind of start the whole process. We've got to call a special session. We're a part-time legislature. We're not meeting right now. So we're going to change the maps. We got to come back in. We got to get back to work. And so that, you know, it's step one, but then we've got to get a map together.

0

2084.674 - 2101.517 Andrew Ireland

We've got to get it passed to give one, you know, our little local, you know, local election officials the time to do what they need to do. I mean, the filing deadline in Indiana to run for Congress is February of 2026. So we're only a couple months out now. We've got to figure this out soon.

0

2101.637 - 2116.969 Andrew Ireland

I mean, I had a chance, I'm a former deputy attorney general here in Indiana, to go and handle some of the election litigation that came here in 2020. And I gotta tell you, I mean, there are a lot of judges out there that I think this is a perfectly legal process and we're gonna get a map that's gonna stick.

0

2116.949 - 2129.865 Andrew Ireland

But they're going to be judges and they're going to be lawyers that are going to try to stand in the way of that. And so there's going to have to be a process there. We're going to have to litigate this out, which means we have to give ourselves time to get the job done. So, again, I'm hopeful that we're going to call that soon.

2133.29 - 2141.64 Steve Bannon

Who's the deciding figure? Is that Governor Braun? Because I know Governor Braun's pretty MAGA. Is he having second thoughts about this?

2142.464 - 2155.079 Andrew Ireland

I think the governor's signaled that, you know, he fully supports this. I think he'd like to call a special session, but they're trying to see, you know, where the votes are. There's enough votes in our House and our Senate to get the job done. And I think that's where the hang up is right now.

2157.262 - 2166.733 Steve Bannon

What do you think you have the votes in the House? I hear what people are telling me is that the Senate in the Indiana legislature, that's the problem. Do you think you have the votes in the House right now?

2167.658 - 2185.633 Andrew Ireland

I hope so. You know, I don't have a whip count, honestly, Steve, but, you know, got my vote. I know there are a number of members of the House have been pretty vocal about their support for this. Maybe, you know, less so maybe in the Senate right now. So I think that's where a lot of the intrigue has been. But honestly, I don't have a whip count on either one. That'd be my suspicion, though.

Chapter 7: What is the status of redistricting efforts in Indiana?

2711.168 - 2711.748 Steve Bannon

Do it today.

0

2713.39 - 2716.234 Stephen K. Bannon

Here's your host, Stephen K. Bann.

0

2718.425 - 2733.212 Steve Bannon

Okay, here's what we're going to do. At 6 o'clock, we're going to play the cold open we had for the 5 show. We're going to get into the peace deal, all of it. Dave Brett's committed to me, although he's in D.C. He's got a lot of stuff going on. He's committed. He's going to stick for the first half hour. I got Harnwell for the second. You have to stick around for that for the Pope.

0

2733.413 - 2756.736 Steve Bannon

And I'm going to tell... another Brat or two story, right? Because this guy, you know, Dave Brat's a historic figure. Nobody in the history of this republic has ever challenged a sitting majority leader. Remember the way the House works. If you have the majority, your top guy is the Speaker of the House. But the guy that really runs the deal, right, day in and day out, is the majority leader.

0

2756.756 - 2778.195 Steve Bannon

That would be Scalise now. And at that time, it was Eric Cantor, because the young guns were going up. You had McCarthy, you had Ryan, you had Cantor. Those were the three young guns. No one had ever in the history of this country Taken on a sitting majority leader in a primary and beaten them. Dave Brat is the only person that's ever done that.

2778.315 - 2801.885 Steve Bannon

And Dave Brat on that victory completely changed the arc of history because it changed. They were going to have an amnesty. Zuckerberg was coming back for a huge amnesty meeting the next day. Fox was all in. They were all in. Brat's victory running on an anti-immigration, you know, no amnesty, build the wall. And it laid the predicate for for a guy named Donald Trump a couple of years later.

2801.985 - 2821.517 Steve Bannon

So you could say that Dave Brat was actually John the Baptist in this regard. Anyway, I got a couple more great Brat stories. Talk about a pilgrim. I mean, this guy had no earthy... He is as pure as new-driven snow. Brat, you hang on. Mike Lindell, I'm confused now. I've actually bumped the cold open at 6 o'clock because I saw this thing today...

2822.155 - 2845.22 Steve Bannon

with this company buying Dominion, and Rahim is one of the guys working on that. I talked to Rahim. He was going to try to come on, but we didn't have enough time, and I'm going to try to get Rahim on tomorrow because Rahim had a big lunch meeting yesterday at Butterworth's and had all the prominent... DC political operatives and media types, Raheem, obviously Butterworth's is the place to go.

2845.3 - 2865.19 Steve Bannon

Raheem's one of the owners and kind of runs it and is obviously prominent. But in talking, just doing my due diligence so I could come on and explain it, they started going through all the deals that are settled. And they told me Rudy Giuliani, Mike Lindell. And I go, Mike Lindell, are you sure? I kind of asked him this question every other day on the show. And he's all huffy and gruffy.

Chapter 8: How do the speakers connect current events to past political battles?

3062.541 - 3085.493 Mike Lindell

I don't care who is, you know, like I say, Steve, I have no problem with any of these companies. Go make blenders. Go make, I don't know, telephones. Go make anything, but don't bring computers and voting machines into our country again. And then I told the one CNN, I said, you should be reporting real things that are good news to our country.

0

3085.753 - 3093.913 Mike Lindell

Like Dallas County in Texas just voted to go to paper ballots and counted in the upcoming primary. There's real news.

0

3095.547 - 3110.046 Steve Bannon

People should know that Mike Lindell is such a brother to me that I specialize in working him up before the show on something. This is actually real. Mike, we've got about a minute and a half. I want people to understand that you've got deals for him. The way the company is thriving is the deals for the war. And what do you got?

0

3110.363 - 3133.015 Mike Lindell

That's right. MyPillow, you guys, the three-in-one sale. We had the towels and the pillows, but now we've added the MySlippers that are in. $39.98. This is a War Room exclusive, everybody.

3172.221 - 3190.303 Steve Bannon

Thank you, brother. We'll see you tomorrow. Most powerful promo code in the business. Okay, stick around. At 6 o'clock, we're going to go through the news of President Trump. Blessed be the peacemakers. President Trump is working on world peace and succeeding. And Dave Bratz, my wingman, next in the War Room.

3192.325 - 3209.782 Steve Bannon

What if he had the brightest mind in the war room delivering critical financial research every month? Steve Bannon here. War Room listeners know Jim Rickards. I love this guy. He's our wise man, a former CIA, Pentagon, and White House advisor with an unmatched grasp of geopolitics and capital markets.

3210.283 - 3226.72 Steve Bannon

Jim predicted Trump's electoral college victory exactly 312 to 226, down to the actual number itself. Now he's issuing a dire warning about April 11th, a moment that could define Trump's presidency and your financial future.
