Discussing a potential national emergency executive order on elections, Steve Bannon suggests that national security would be the predicate, and John Solomon's “task force” would be involved
Bannon: “You would have to make the case that it was for national security. I think that case can be made.”

STEVE BANNON (HOST): Monday, 29 June, year of our Lord 2026, raises the stake on the Save America Act. I understand people run around, oh, it's got this emergency order. You have to lay the predicate out.
I believe that we have a task force. I think that John Solomon, and John's been on the show a couple of times talking about this, he's restricted on saying exactly what they're doing. But also Pulte, this is why they're trying to stop him at DNI.
Why the firestorm to stop him and to shut down Solomon? Cause if you want to have an executive order that could withstand an immediate court challenge and be overturned, you have to lay out a pretty definitive predicate for that.
As viewers of this show, followers of this show know, we have long said that there is foreign interference in this — in the election process of 2020, the Chinese Communist Party, and pretty evident.
We had a grand jury out in Los Angeles that talked about it. It's not just simply the accessing the databases of voters, of which they did — I think it's in 18 states and I believe that will be coming out, in 18 states, but additionally, the manipulation of those voter rolls and the using of those voter rolls for, wait for it, mail-in ballots.
That has to come out. Before you take it to an exec — my belief and the people I talked to — otherwise the courts, and people say, well, the courts can't, oh, the courts can't overrule it because it's an emergency executive order versus — regarding national security. Well, the court can review anything. And they would review that.
You would have to make the case that it was for national security. I think that case can be made, but this is why this task force — and not that we waited too long. But we've waited too long.
It's June, or it's close to July, of 2026, this is why everything must be with urgency. President Trump's working 20 hours a day. There doesn't seem to be urgency in other aspects of what he's doing, except you got two outsiders. Two outsiders.
John Solomon's now got a task force. John Solomon's got a full-time gig at Real America's Voice doing a show. He's doing this as a collateral duty. Pulte runs the housing authority. He's doing DNI as a collateral duty.
My understanding, they're making tremendous headway. And, I believe that you'll see that, according to John, who's been on the show saying, and I'm just repeating what he said on the show, you should see that coming out in the next week or two.
Now whether this stuff drops this week because of 4th of July — but I would just say we're burning daylight. If you want to have Save America passed and implemented, or if people have this idea of a national emergency executive order, you would have to have the predicate for it. Like, where are we? We're burning daylight.
This gets me back to my favorite, Markwayne Mullin. I don't think he — first off, he's not with us. He's not a mass deportations guy. Now he nominated his buddy. You know, for Oklahoma being one of the greatest of the MAGA states, the political class there, yeah, not so much. Just not cutting edge.
I think Markwayne Mullin has been a total complete disaster as Homeland Security — I thought yesterday he was unprepared and kind of mumbling about — and even Tomi Lahren over at Fox lit him up, and other people have lit him up.
But it was like confusing that he's now saying, well, what they should do is fill out the paperwork for permanent status. No. You've had plenty of time to plan for this.
The buses should have rolled up, you should have gone out there to Ohio, where they're eating the dogs and the cats. Go out, the buses should have been there and come on, — oh you know where they live. Get the buses, let's load the buses and let's have the planes right there at the airport. Well, heck, we'll give them private service and fly back. Don't even need to take commercial.
