Raheem Kassam: The French And English Right Has Awakened To The Idea That “Our Democracy Is Broken”
Ben Harnwell, Raheem Kassam, and Ben Bergquam discussed the recent French election results, with Harnwell filling in for Stephen K. Bannon. Kassam provided an analysis of Emmanuel Macron’s gamble in the elections, noting that while Macron’s party lost its majority, the outcome’s long-term political implications are still uncertain. Macron might need to form coalitions with various parties, including those considered far-left by U.S. standards, such as Marxists and Islamists. Kassam emphasized that this election has highlighted potential flaws in the French political system, drawing parallels to electoral reform debates in the UK. Despite Marine Le Pen’s party, National Rally, not achieving an absolute majority, they significantly increased their representation, which could be seen as a positive trajectory for the party heading into future elections. Bergquam added that this result could potentially bolster Le Pen’s credibility and the National Rally’s case for future leadership, arguing that it is not the time for Le Pen to step aside. The conversation highlighted the complexities of coalition politics in France and the broader implications for both Macron and Le Pen’s political futures.

Raheem Kassam Predicts Infighting Within France’s Far-Left Government Coalition
In part three of the conversation on the War Room, Ben Harnwell, Ben Bergquam, and Raheem Kassam discussed the recent French election results, emphasizing Emmanuel Macron’s risky strategy of uniting the French establishment to counter the National Rally. They highlighted the move’s potential long-term consequences if it fails to deliver, especially with the upcoming 2027 presidential elections. Kassam noted that while Macron aimed to keep Marine Le Pen out of power, his decision pushed his party further left, aligning with extreme factions, which could prove detrimental to France and the Western world. Bergquam pointed out the coalition’s inherent instability due to conflicting agendas among its members, predicting potential chaos and violence reminiscent of U.S. protests by groups like Antifa and BLM. They stressed the global implications of this situation, viewing it as part of a broader struggle against globalist forces, and suggested that the National Rally might gain more support if the coalition falters, highlighting the need for strong leadership to manage radical elements in the political landscape.
James Rickards Reveals How The Global Elite Are “Trump-Proofing The World”
In a discussion on the War Room, Ben Harnwell and Jim Rickards analyzed the U.S. political landscape, focusing on the establishment’s efforts to prevent a repeat of Donald Trump’s 2016 victory. Rickards noted that mainstream media outlets like CNN and Axios seem increasingly skeptical of President Joe Biden’s ability to defeat Trump in the upcoming election, highlighting Biden’s mental incompetence as a major concern. He criticized the Democratic Party’s search for a viable candidate, suggesting figures like Kamala Harris are being considered despite the overarching problem of Biden’s fitness for office. Harnwell and Rickards also discussed a Politico article detailing global efforts to “Trump-proof” institutions, reflecting a broader attempt to limit Trump’s potential influence if he wins. This strategy, Rickards argued, is marked by ideological bias and a condescending attitude towards Trump. The conversation extended to international politics, with Rickards pointing out the hypocrisy of global elites, particularly criticizing the British Foreign Secretary’s harsh rhetoric against Trump. This, they argued, exemplified the disdain elites have for populist movements and underscored the disconnect between establishment figures and the democratic will of the people.
Kari Lake Kicks Off ‘Make America Grand Again’ Bus Tour, Offers Inside Preview To WarRoom Posse
Kari Lake and Ben Harnwell discussed the political climate in the U.S., emphasizing Steve Bannon’s imprisonment as an indicator of President Joe Biden’s administration’s descent into authoritarianism. Lake, who is actively campaigning in Arizona, highlighted her bus tour and the excitement it has generated among voters. She emphasized her commitment to addressing key issues such as the economy, housing affordability, and immigration. Lake criticized Biden and her opponent, Reuben Gallego, for their policies and alignment, asserting Biden’s lack of competence and responsibility for current national problems. She also underscored the importance of election integrity, condemning the mainstream media for downplaying Biden’s cognitive issues and the 2020 election concerns. Lake called for strong voter turnout to support her campaign and the America First movement, emphasizing unity and the need for patriotic leadership to address the nation’s challenges.
Matt Boyle Warns Biden’s Mental Decline Is Security Crisis, Not Just Political
In their discussion, Matt Boyle and Ben Harnwell analyzed the Democratic Party’s challenges with Joe Biden’s candidacy. Boyle highlighted Biden’s insistence on running, citing his letter to congressional Democrats and his appearance on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.” He shared a message from Steve Bannon, who emphasized the national security implications of Biden’s cognitive issues, urging the House to scrutinize Biden’s ability to lead.
Boyle and Harnwell noted that while Biden is determined to stay in the race, there’s a faction within the Democratic Party considering replacing him with Kamala Harris or another candidate. They criticized the Democrats for not aggressively pushing for Biden’s removal, suggesting they are treating it as a typical political scandal rather than a national security crisis.
Harnwell mentioned the media’s role in this scenario, pointing out reports that the Biden campaign had pre-arranged questions for a radio interview to make Biden appear competent. He also referenced a leaked Axios story showing detailed instructions given to Biden during public appearances, further highlighting concerns about his cognitive abilities.
Both agreed that the Democrats need to escalate their efforts if they want to replace Biden before the Democratic National Convention. They emphasized the limited time available, as the party must finalize its nominee soon to meet state ballot requirements. Boyle concluded by stressing that unless there is significant action from Democratic leaders, Biden will remain the nominee, presenting a substantial challenge for the party in the upcoming election against Donald Trump.
Kirk Cameron Previews ‘See You At The Library 2024’ Event
Kirk Cameron discussed an upcoming event on August 24th called “CU at the Library,” inspired by the “See You at the Pole” movement. Families will gather in public libraries to host story hours that promote American constitutional and biblical values. This event aims to set a Guinness World Record, countering an LGBTQ+ event that recently set a record for the largest drag queen story hour. Last year, tens of thousands participated across 300 libraries in 46 states. Cameron emphasizes teaching children values like humility, kindness, and faith. He criticizes mainstream media for not covering their events as extensively as LGBTQ+ events.
