Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?

2.528 - 24.15 Stephen K. 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.

0

24.17 - 26.875 Mike Howell

And where do people like that go to share the big lie?

0

27.596 - 34.206 Mike Davis

Mega media. I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.

0

34.186 - 62.696 Stephen K. 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. War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Bann. Wednesday, 1 April, year of alert 2026. OK, we're a couple of hours away from the president give a major address, I think, from the Oval Office tonight.

0

63.697 - 75.094 Stephen K. Bannon

Soon it's going to be about, I don't know, 20, 30 minutes long, probably the max. The networks are picking up. So they normally are pretty when they negotiate these things. They're pretty intense.

75.074 - 101.79 Stephen K. Bannon

admit about the time um politico's got a story up with my thoughts i'll get back to that in a moment we're also a couple hours away from historic first time in the history of the country that a president has gone up during a live hearing uh an argument uh in front of the supreme court mike howell joins of course mike you had a a number of big things today including the launching of the mass deportation coalition action plan we'll get to that in a second

101.956 - 125.213 Stephen K. Bannon

I think that people, as they heard the Solicitor General make the arguments today and then heard some of the comments from the various justices and not simply the crazed left-wingers, more than ever, it seemed like a great day for you to launch your mass deportation coalition. Talk to me first, what was your sense of what happened at the Supreme Court today?

126.307 - 145.031 Stephen K. Bannon

Yeah, well, obviously, exciting day that President Trump was there. I think it was right for him to be there to show how committed he is to ending this absurd and unconstitutional policy that stems from a wrongly decided case so long ago. I mean, birthright citizenship is a joke. People just jump the borders, have kids, and now they're citizens. Chinese use birth tourism. I mean, get out of here.

145.091 - 168.772 Stephen K. Bannon

No, serious country does that. And we know why the Democrats want to keep it. It's because mass migration is their political strategy. But look, you can't read too much into these hearings. And And I know consensus out there is it looks like there are some problems with Roberts and Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett. But, you know, let's keep the hope. It could be 6-3 on the wrong end of things.

Chapter 2: How does the Supreme Court's decision impact birthright citizenship?

369.706 - 386.32 Stephen K. Bannon

It is a rock solid plan and it proves that to not do it is a policy choice in and of itself. It requires the Trump administration to get over the political hurdle that the big donors don't want them to do and go to work sites and start enforcing the law. And let me just make a final point about why putting these things together is so important.

0

386.3 - 407.211 Stephen K. Bannon

You know what the oversight project found out right after Trump won the White House this go-around? It said one of the very first things that Democrat attorneys general did was band together for a collective program to sue on birthright citizenship. They don't sit back and wait and watch or trust the plan. They act, they organize, they push, and even when they're in the minority,

0

407.191 - 426.168 Stephen K. Bannon

They maintain momentum. That's why we saw, you know, the Thune plan to defund ICE and CBP passed today, or, you know, the president giving its blessing. It's because they push, they organize, they never give up. That's why we formed the mass deportation coalition, because the agenda was taking on water from the special interests, the media, they were landing the blows.

0

426.208 - 444.868 Stephen K. Bannon

You had that Axios report about, you know, James Blair, the White House saying, don't say mass deportation. And we just had saw, we've seen enough. And so we organized, we put together the plan. And now the American people can take a look at it. supported and know that the president's campaign promise, the signature campaign promise is doable, justified and necessary.

0

445.309 - 466.987 Stephen K. Bannon

And MAGA still has his back to get it done. Lobbyists be damned. Are you recommending that we make this the centerpiece of the midterm elections, that this mass deportation action plan be, we just put it up there and say, hey, up or down vote and make this really the driving force, the tip of the spear for the midterm elections? It absolutely should be.

467.147 - 486.634 Stephen K. Bannon

I mean, it's no secret right now there are some issues of base motivation, and primary elections are about base motivation. With what's going on in foreign policy, the economy, we need to keep this coalition together, and there is a large contingent of it. And our polling shows 80% of Trump voters want mass deportation executed. They think it'll define his legacy.

487.034 - 504.595 Stephen K. Bannon

And so if we want, with all the headwinds that we're against right now, people to show up, be animated, we need to see delivery online. on the mandate. That's why we're doing it. We don't want to see President Trump impeached by hordes of Democrats again. We don't want to go through what that looks like. And so we need to get people motivated.

504.715 - 520.934 Stephen K. Bannon

And you do that through fulfilling the promise for mass deportation. Mike, one more time. I want people to go. It's 100 pages long. We've pushed it out. We're going to continue to push it out. We're going to have other of your coalition members on the next couple of days to go through details about this.

520.974 - 542.72 Stephen K. Bannon

But where do people go right now on the opening day of you putting it out to go read it and think about it? Yeah, massdeportation.com. Sign up there. If you're part of an organization, we want you to join. This thing is growing. People are coming out of the woodworks to join. It is going to be massive by the time, you know, we're just even a few more months in. And we're on X at Phase 2 Deport.

Chapter 3: What is the significance of the mass deportation coalition action plan?

675.807 - 699.899 Stephen K. Bannon

Well, I hope that all of these justices go through the briefs. They go through the plain text of the 14th Amendment and subsequent legislation, and they look at the original public meaning. And I think if they do that, if they actually go through that exercise of textualism and originalism, which is how they sold themselves to get the job, I think that the answer is very clear here.

0

700.08 - 720.85 Stephen K. Bannon

The 14th Amendment's We had the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments, the post-Civil War constitutional amendments, the 13th Amendment outlawed slavery, the 14th Amendment provide equal protection and due process to the freed slaves, the 15th Amendment provide voting rights to the freed male slaves, that was extended to

0

720.83 - 738.549 Stephen K. Bannon

black women with the 19th Amendment, all women, but including the black women with the 19th Amendment. As part of the 14th Amendment, we had the Dred Scott decision after the Civil War. And it was an abomination of a Supreme Court decision that said that the freed slaves do not get American citizenship.

0

738.609 - 757.096 Stephen K. Bannon

And so part of the 14th Amendment included the birthright citizenship provision that all persons born, In the United States, number one, you have to be born here. And number two, you have to be subject to the jurisdiction of the United States. You have to have allegiance, full allegiance to the United States.

0

757.777 - 780.23 Stephen K. Bannon

And so, as I was saying, American Indians did not have birthright citizenship under the 14th Amendment. Congress had to provide it to them by statute. So you have to ask this dispositive question to these textualists and originalists on the Supreme Court. If American Indians... did not have birthright citizenship under the 14th Amendment, how the hell would illegal aliens?

780.631 - 813.701 Stephen K. Bannon

And then you have to ask this further question. Do you think we fought a civil war to give birthright citizenship to 1.5 million Chinese birth tourists? Do we think that we should have over a million Chinese nationals who have American citizenship and live in China and mail in their ballots? from China into American elections and take Social Security and other welfare benefits back in Beijing.

814.342 - 825.66 Stephen K. Bannon

I don't think that's what the proponents of the 14th Amendment were trying to accomplish, and I don't think that's what the public understood what the 14th Amendment was trying to accomplish.

825.64 - 854.145 Stephen K. Bannon

I think that these Supreme Court justices should think long and hard about this decision because if they actually give birthright citizenship under the 14th Amendment to 1.5 Chinese nationals living in Beijing, they are going to destroy, and I mean destroy, the legitimacy of the Supreme Court. Mike, where do people go for Article 3 in your social media, sir? Article3project.com.

854.632 - 881.483 Stephen K. Bannon

dot org article number three project dot org you can donate follow us on social media take action it's time for the good men and women in our governments to be bold and fearless of the constitution courage is in very short supply right now as evidenced by that oral argument today mike davis thank you thank you for running shotgun this morning Your Twitter feed was on fire. Thank you, sir.

Chapter 4: How do political strategies influence immigration policies?

1107.452 - 1129.545 Unknown

Well, I think that this is one of the things, right? We know, I think, from what Rubio has said, that the regime is fractured. But what they're asking for is a guarantee that this won't happen again. But the one thing that we have to remember is now that they've held the hostage, the straight hostage, they can go back and do this again at any time. And I think no matter how this ends,

0

1129.525 - 1140.381 Unknown

Iran will be able to and will want to exercise some control over the Strait. And as the president said today, it only takes a mine dropped there or a guy shooting off a missile.

0

1140.621 - 1160.919 Stephen K. Bannon

Based on Chinese media reports, there are 500, 500 birth tourism companies in the People's Republic of China whose business is to bring people here to give birth and return to that nation. Having said all that, you do agree that that has no impact on the legal analysis before us?

0

1160.939 - 1181.605 Stephen K. Bannon

I think it's, I'd quote what Justice Scalia said in his Hamdan dissent, where their interpretation has these implications that could not possibly have been approved by the 19th century framers of this amendment. I think that shows that they've made a mess, their interpretation has made a mess of the provision. Well, it certainly wasn't a problem in the 19th century.

0

1181.888 - 1190.001 Stephen K. Bannon

No, but of course, we're in a new world now, as Justice Alito pointed out to, where 8 billion people are one plane ride away from having a child who's a U.S. citizen.

1190.221 - 1192.185 Unknown

Well, it's a new world. It's the same Constitution.

1193.947 - 1210.882 Stephen K. Bannon

It is, and as Justice Scalia said, I think in the case that Justice Alito was referring to, you've got a constitutional provision that addresses certain evils, and it should be extended to reasonably comparable evils. He said that about statutory interpretation. I think the same principle applies here, and I think we quote that in our brief. Let me ask you about NATO.

1210.902 - 1229.172 Stephen K. Bannon

You said that our NATO allies have been disappointing specifically. I know you're talking about Spain, Great Britain, France, even Italy now. And that after all of this is done, we will reexamine this relationship. And especially when it comes to we pay two thirds of the freight when it comes to NATO defense.

1229.913 - 1246.877 Mike Howell

And if it's just, quote, about us defending Europe. You said, you know, at this point, how do we call that? And we can't have our landing rights in European nations, our allies at a time when we need them. What good is that alliance? And is the NATO alliance at risk?

Chapter 5: What are the implications of mass deportation on the upcoming midterms?

1476.127 - 1494.476 Unknown

Don't worry, I'm still here focusing on the big issue you voted for, keeping America American in the way that you see it. The president going to the Supreme Court today is going to be read as just and talked about, unfortunately, as just another one of his stunts. But to be very clear, this is a president that thinks he is above all reproach.

0

1494.997 - 1514.789 Unknown

This is a president that thought it was smart politically and a political advantage to him to go to the Supreme Court to stare the justices down in hopes that they would take that into consideration. One could argue and rule in his favor. But here, if we could just step back, I think that everybody's absolutely correct.

0

1514.829 - 1536.966 Unknown

What the president is doing is trying to appeal to a very specific part of his base. But to be very clear, what has happened inside the current Republican Party apparatus is that things that used to be relegated to the fringe, this idea that America is, quote unquote, uniquely for Americans, which translates to America is for foundational Americans. white people in this country. Right.

0

1537.466 - 1557.951 Unknown

That is white supremacist ideology. And what has happened under this, not just under this second presidency of Donald Trump, but I would argue since he came to rise in political power, which predates him coming down that escalator, which starts with him questioning the citizenship of the first black president of the United States of America, Barack Obama.

0

1557.931 - 1578.761 Unknown

This white supremacist ideology, frankly, is foundational to Donald Trump's political beliefs, if we can argue that he holds any to be true. The thing that has been consistent is this idea that some people in this country are in fact not white. foundational Americans, that some people in this country, their citizenship deserves to be questioned.

1578.781 - 1591.431 Unknown

And so this idea that this is just about immigrants in this country, people who have, you know, maybe have come to this country seeking asylum, who have crossed the border illegally, who are undocumented, that is not what this is just about.

1591.411 - 1610.524 Unknown

And I think what really threw me overall is that what many people expected would be a slam dunk reiteration of the 1898 precedent and wonky mark is now turned into a nail biter of a case. Really? Where folks cannot. I mean, if you look at. Legal experts talking online about this case.

1610.824 - 1628.912 Unknown

You see everything from people saying, well, I think it'll still be nine zero or it should be nine zero, but I'm not sure how we get there. But really, you see a larger consensus around people saying, I think the administration probably will lose, but I can't guarantee you that it will. And we could have a much closer majority. than people would expect.

1629.073 - 1643.608 Unknown

I can count four reliable votes for the ACLU's position, and I can't yet tell you who I think the fifth or sixth or seventh will be. Do you think this is bigger than Donald Trump? This is about Trumpism. And if you go back to the current president of the Heritage Foundation, Kevin Roberts,

Chapter 6: How does the current administration's approach differ from previous ones?

1872.143 - 1892.962 Stephen K. Bannon

You can also get access to the hardbound edition of the first seven installments. We call it the Patriots edition. So make sure you check it out. Talk to Philip Patrick and the team. Ask him the questions you need to ask him. Gold's been kind of back on a tear after having one of the worst weeks, at least in the last 10 or so years last week. So make sure it's not the price, it's the process.

0

1893.102 - 1917.317 Stephen K. Bannon

Make sure you get that. I want to thank the team. And we're going to have more about Patriot Mobile tomorrow. This what's happening in Texas with Proposition 10 about the banning or prohibiting a Sharia law in the state of Texas. More folks on about that tomorrow. Also, we're going to be doing much more about the mass deportation coalition that Mike Callen's team, Eric Prince, launched today.

0

1917.337 - 1940.938 Stephen K. Bannon

Patriot Mobile 972 Patriot. Go today, call that, and ask someone. They'll pick up the phone at their call center. It has an East Texas accent. Ask them why it's the most phone service in the world. Also, you get a month free if you're a War Room Posse member. Make sure folks know that. And Chapter, this thing with Medicare, so confusing. 845 War Room. Talk to one of the consultants at Chapter.

0

1941.459 - 1962.245 Stephen K. Bannon

War Room Posse members already saving thousands of dollars. the confusing morass of the Medicare system, all made clear to you with the great advisors and consultants over a chapter. 845 War Room, the setup is a special for the War Room Posse. People already love it. Go check it out, as I did. So go check it out today.

1963.447 - 1974.578 Stephen K. Bannon

Tracy Anthony, so in about, I guess, an hour, we're going to actually have a launch of things around time. I think it was 624 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time. What is actually going to happen, ma'am?

1976.971 - 1997.308 Tracy Anthony

yeah you know if you would ask me two hours ago it was raining it still was super cloudy i was gonna say it probably wouldn't happen tonight but it cleared out very quickly now we have kind of those ideal weather conditions for the launch to continue to take place so the skies are clear the winds a little breezy but

1997.288 - 2019.471 Tracy Anthony

As long as those wind gusts stay under about 43 miles per hour at the surface, we should be in the clear. Now, the only other thing that could defer the launch is technology problems. But I'm staying up to date with the latest updates. It looks like we're still a go. And Steve, we're at Jetty Park. This is a campground near Kennedy Space Center. And it is jam packed full.

2019.932 - 2040.475 Tracy Anthony

So no reservations, no one could get in last minute. And a lot of people here have come from all over the country. I'm talking Maine, Wisconsin, other people from Colorado. So this is a very cool experience. The overall theme is that this is a historic and very patriotic launch.

2043.256 - 2063.003 Stephen K. Bannon

This this hasn't gotten a lot of press up until now. And now in the last 48 hours, people are very focused on this. This is extraordinarily dangerous for these astronauts. Can you talk to us just what what's going to happen in the countdown between now and the time it goes off? And I take it it's still approximately 624 p.m. in about an hour.

Chapter 7: What challenges does the mass deportation plan face?

2144.062 - 2161.337 Stephen K. Bannon

John Solomon at Just the News. If the countdown goes as it looks like it is, it'll be live during the John Solomon hour and our next hour immediately following the war room. John Solomon is also going to be back tonight. 8.50, we're going to pick up from the studio 6B people at the very end of their show.

0

2162.078 - 2186.093 Stephen K. Bannon

Solomon, Posobiec, and myself, we'll jump in about 8.50, 8.55, tee up the president's address, and then the president will talk to the nation about what he calls an update. And and then we'll have commentary and observations immediately after we saw the Warren posse. Make sure you're back here at 850. Mike Lindell. Today, the we had the at the Supreme Court, the president went yesterday.

0

2186.153 - 2203.202 Stephen K. Bannon

He signed the executive order. There's already a firestorm in the executive order. I think they've already they're already getting ready to sue him and take him to court. for mail-in ballots. He wanted to get good voter rolls. He wanted to get mail-in ballots sorted out, and they're already getting ready to take him to court.

0

2203.223 - 2225.408 Stephen K. Bannon

So we'll be back in front of the federal court, the federal bench, the appeals court, all of it. between now and that. We were talking about making immigration a national issue for this upcoming midterm. What do you think we also make it about voter integrity? We know that that is another basic plank of the MAGA movement. What do you think about that, sir?

0

2225.607 - 2248.17 Stephen K. Bannon

Well, that is, you know, when I'm running for governor in Minnesota, we did a poll last August and election integrity was number three in Minnesota of concerns. That's moved up quite a bit with all the other concerns, everybody. But you know it's a big thing when they keep attacking us, attacking the president for wanting to get to secure election.

2248.571 - 2272.278 Stephen K. Bannon

Steve, I just found out today, I've been working with Arctic Frost, everybody. This is the the code name for the operation done against MyPillow by our own government. We found out today by lawyers we have working on that it's still going on. There were banks involved with this where they were not honoring buying stuff from MyPillow. You can't make this up, everybody.

2272.318 - 2287.381 Stephen K. Bannon

This has been the biggest attack on a company in the history of the world. It's a miracle MyPillow's still here. Steve, it's been going on for a long time. Hang on, hang on, hang on. But hang on, tell me what, hang on. The banks were doing what Arctic frost.

2287.802 - 2303.147 Stephen K. Bannon

I know the banks were involved in this, but they were, they were hurting your business by making sure they didn't, they wouldn't commit to, to pay for certain things. They would not honor people's cards as you went to buy MyPillow products. We went back a long way after we found out about this.

2303.849 - 2322.417 Stephen K. Bannon

So if you ever went to buy something from MyPillow, everybody, if you're watching, and you got a card that your bank said that they flagged it and they wouldn't honor it for MyPillow, this was Arctic Frost. We're just finding this out, Steve. Today, I've been on the phone for three hours with lawyers. This is disgusting.

Chapter 8: How do public opinions shape immigration reform in the U.S.?

2456.791 - 2477.443 Stephen K. Bannon

And then you're going to see right next to that. The fact that we brought, we had to bring some stuff over from the other factory that we still have left. We're closing that out 80% off to the war room posse. You guys did great, and we got everything moved now into our new factory. And remember, everybody, the woke company bought that factory, and they didn't want to renew our lease.

0

2477.543 - 2486.397 Stephen K. Bannon

This has been an ongoing attack, but we keep fighting back, and so do you guys. 1498, we left our pillows that we make in-house on sale.

0

2486.377 - 2511.76 Stephen K. Bannon

for 14.98 another war room exclusive so you guys call 800-873-1062 it was quite a shock today my call center reps actually we actually found out through them too that this has been going on with these banks for a long time use promo code war room in spite of all the attacks and uh and uh save up save get those big savings today promo code war room

0

2511.892 - 2530.493 Stephen K. Bannon

You're coming through stronger than ever, but people have to understand what they've done to destroy you because you were the one that sat there and said, hey, the 2020 election's stolen, and here's how it was stolen, and we've got to set this thing right. Now, President Trump and everybody's fighting to do this, but you can tell how savage they are. They even get the banks on it.

0

2530.513 - 2548.48 Stephen K. Bannon

Mike Lindell, thank you so much, brother. I'll talk to you during the president's speech and see you tomorrow. Mike Renner for Governor now in Minnesota. President Trump, this is the first time. I mean, he's talked to the nation before in various aspects, as we've been covering. This is the first time he's actually...

2548.595 - 2562.791 Stephen K. Bannon

gone and formally address the nation tonight and go to the broadcast companies, which are very hesitant about giving time. I mean, they'll do it. It has to be a time of kind of a national importance. And this is tonight. There's no doubt about that.

2563.472 - 2576.847 Stephen K. Bannon

I think the president is going to lay out in a very succinct way what the objectives were, what he's accomplished, what he thinks we still have to do to accomplish. And I do believe he's going to talk about this NATO ally situation where

2577.502 - 2592.709 Stephen K. Bannon

As I think Marco said it very well, it's not simply the fact they haven't been there for us in supporting us, is that they actually restricted our ability to use our own forces that happen to be stationed in Europe, particularly now Spain was a bilateral deal with Spain.

2592.689 - 2616.874 Stephen K. Bannon

uh but england the bases uh france was very difficult italy was very difficult i mean it's just we don't need to put up with this nonsense i think the president's going to address that tonight too i also would say the only reason people say has to go back to the senate they slipped into a omnibus bill years ago the president had to go back to him to get a nato i think that's unconstitutional and i think that will be challenged so the president can make a decision i think on nato as he wants to make it
