What is the main theme of the WarRoom Black Friday Special 2025?

Steve Bannon 0:02

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.

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

Jake Seawolf 0:34

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

Stephen K. Bannon 0:44

War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Bann.

Steve Bannon 0:51

Okay, well, Friday, 28 November, Year of the Lord 2025.

How do entrepreneurs share their stories during the Black Friday special?

Steve Bannon 0:54

Thank you for every year we do our Black Friday special. What we try to do is make this inspirational. We talk to all the entrepreneurs that work with us in these different companies and about themselves, the backgrounds, the companies, and what they have to offer you. We tie in some news also. Tej Gill, my man, is riding shotgun with me today. Tej, thank you so much for co-hosting. Thank you for having me. I'm going to come back to you because I need a great cup of coffee, obviously, on the day after Thanksgiving. I want to start with my patron supply, politically, Jake Seawolf. Jake, how did you get associated with the company? First of all, tell people your background. Everything today, the people we're going to have up here, I want the audience to get to know them as people.

Steve Bannon 1:36

What do you got for us, sir?

Unknown 1:39

Yeah, absolutely, Steve. Appreciate you.

What insights does Jake Seawolf provide about his military background?

Unknown 1:41

When I first graduated high school, I jumped right into the U.S. Army infantry, got to go serve overseas in Afghanistan, basically a big, long backpacking trip, carrying a rifle through the mountains and up by the Pakistan border. That was a good time. And then... I now actually am part-time with the Utah National Guard. I'm a combat cameraman with the 19th Special Forces Group. So I get to still travel the world a little bit and have some fun. And my Patriots supplied, they picked me up off LinkedIn when I was between jobs on the civilian side of things. And it's just been a great, great place ever since. They've treated me well.

Steve Bannon 2:23

Talk to me about – I also talk about the MAGA movement, and it's not just about economics and populist economics. It's about the sons and daughters that have served in the military around the world. What's it like walking patrol, I guess, in the Hindu Kush, right, between Pakistan? And Pakistan has been problematic, particularly – I guess it's the Pashtuns are half of Afghanistan and half of Pakistan, but they could go across that mountain range and not – and we couldn't bring them to justice.

How does the MAGA movement relate to military service?

Steve Bannon 2:52

How tough was that for you? Because obviously it was much more difficult than just a backpack trip through like the Blue Ridge Mountains, right? This is one of the most dangerous places on earth.

Unknown 3:03

It's pretty wild, actually, because even one of our outposts that we built up in a village, the valley floor that it laid at was at 9000 feet elevation. And I live in Utah and the valley floor that here is 6000. So that's pretty high. So whenever we're patrolling the mountains, like we'd be as high as 12000 feet up in the mountains and it's hard to breathe. The winters were brutal. I mean, I'm talking negative 20 plus degrees. I had mild frostbite at one point. You could see just purple spot bruising all over my body from being so cold. And you're just, you're not getting any sleep trying to fill sandbags. So you're shoveling below the snow and then using pickaxes to pry the dirt off the ground to fill sandbags to start building up your outposts and everything.

Unknown 3:52

And That was an experience that I'll never forget for sure.

What challenges do veterans face when transitioning to civilian life?

Unknown 3:57

Had a helicopter, and it's actually online. If you ever search up Apache crash in Afghanistan, it's up in the mountains. Somehow that video got to the public, went wild, and it almost killed a bunch of us because it just came right down over the top of our heads. But luckily, no one died that day.
