STEVE BANNON (HOST): All out war.
And the other line of work of deportations, President Trump finally had enough of it. Aliens Enemies Act of 1798. President John Adams, this was about the French, this kind of fallout from the French Revolution, of cracking down here, didn't want us to get sucked into European wars, that sound familiar? And they passed this act.
President Trump used it. It was the same act to do the — to deter or do the interments I guess of the Japanese after Pearl Harbor, always very controversial, although there was a lot that they don't talk about today. There was many, many, many voices saying that that should have happened after Pearl Harbor given the fact that we didn't know what the hell was going on.
