San Francisco Judge Issues TRO Barring Trump From Executive Branch Reductions, Mike Davis Reports
In a pointed exchange, Mike Davis and Steve Bannon condemned a recent ruling by San Francisco Judge Susan Illston, who blocked President Trump’s efforts to reduce the federal workforce and reorganize over 20 executive branch agencies. Davis, a former Supreme Court clerk, described the order as "judicial sabotage,” arguing that the president has both the constitutional right and duty to cut government waste under Article II. He emphasized that Trump’s executive actions were lawful and within the statutory framework, yet activist groups and labor unions could manipulate the system through "judge shopping.”
The conversation framed this as part of a broader pattern where Democrat-aligned plaintiffs target politically favorable courts—especially in the Ninth Circuit—to stall Trump’s reform agenda. Davis blasted the failure to require plaintiffs to post bond under Rule 65(c), calling it unlawful and costly to taxpayers. He warned that if courts continue undermining executive authority, drastic reforms to the federal judiciary, including defunding and eliminating judgeships, may be necessary. Bannon labeled this a judicial assault on democracy, asserting that the left weaponizes the courts to block the will of the voters who elected Trump to enact reforms. Both warned that the country is nearing a constitutional crisis.

"We Should Have Never Given Up On Ed Martin,” Steve Bannon On Resisting Republican Establishment
Steve Bannon praised Judge Jeanine Pirro as a patriotic warrior and ideal candidate for U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, citing her unflinching loyalty to President Trump and the country, even hosting her show while undergoing chemotherapy. Bannon criticized judicial overreach and what he calls "judicial sabotage,” warning that America faces a constitutional crisis. He urged urgency in reforming institutions like the FBI, DOJ, and Bureau of Prisons, emphasizing Ed Martin’s new role in Justice Department weaponization efforts. Bannon condemned radical leftist attacks on conservatives, referencing an assault on Martin, and called for immediate legal action against such aggression. He stressed the need for mass deportations, labeling the current removals as "the easy ones,” and warned against weakness, stating, "if we flinch, we lose.”
BANNON: "The Federal Spending Is Out Of Control And The Political Class Can’t Cut It
Steve Bannon warned that the U.S. is approaching a major financial crisis, emphasizing the decline of the dollar’s purchasing power and global moves to challenge its reserve currency status. He credited President Trump for restructuring trade deals and confronting China’s economic warfare. Bannon stressed that Trump’s efforts to prevent global war, particularly in the Middle East, and to reform economic policy are critical. He criticized federal spending, the debt ceiling crisis, and the Republican Party’s failure to adopt populist reforms. He called for a national debate on currency leadership, entitlement reform, and the urgent need to deconstruct the administrative state.
"They Represent The Billionaires,” Bannon And Brat BLAST Establishment For Lack Of Cuts
Pt.1:
Steve Bannon and Dave Brat criticized the failure of both Republican elites and entrenched institutions to address runaway federal spending, especially under current President Donald Trump’s second term. The dialogue highlighted how wealthy interests — particularly law firms, lobbyists, and Wall Street — benefit from federal largesse, fueling a corrupt "auction-like” system in Washington. The speakers emphasized that traditional GOP orthodoxy, tax cuts alone, and performative policies are insufficient to confront America’s ballooning debt, projected at $2.5 trillion for FY2026. They praised Russ Vought’s budget-cutting framework, which calls for $10 trillion in cuts over 10 years, and criticized think tanks like Club for Growth for avoiding real spending reductions.
Concerns were raised about the failure to permanently secure tax cuts for the working and middle class, while the wealthy enjoy entrenched advantages through asset ownership and influence over policy. The proposed tax increases target only the ultra-rich (earning over $5 million), yet still provoke partisan attacks. The segment stressed that without meaningful structural reform — akin to bankruptcy triage — America faces a summer of converging financial, constitutional, and geopolitical crises. The takeaway: real fiscal responsibility must replace gimmicks, and the wealthy must share the burden or risk systemic collapse.

PURPLE HAZE: Alex DeGrasse On Once Deep Blue States Shift To The Right In Woke Resistance
Steve Bannon and Alex DeGrasse discussed the growing populist-MAGA movement in New York, framing it as a major political shift driven by working-class voters, legal immigrants, and minorities disillusioned with Democrat rule. DeGrasse emphasized Donald Trump’s enduring influence, asserting that New York Republicans, though many have relocated, remain mobilized. He highlighted corruption under Governor Kathy Hochul and Attorney General Letitia James, noting growing protests and enthusiasm for a possible gubernatorial run by Rep. Elise Stefanik. Bannon hailed a Daily Mail feature as validation of this movement’s momentum. DeGrasse pointed to areas like the Bronx, which have shown major electoral swings toward MAGA since 2020. They drew parallels to the Revolutionary War, describing the effort to flip New York as a modern "offensive victory.” Both agreed the MAGA base is energized and see this as a key front in retaking political ground from entrenched Democrat power in a state long dominated by progressive politics.
