Well the virus has now killed more than a hundred people in China and new cases have been confirmed around the world. | |
| You don't want to frighten the American public. | ||
| France and South Korea have also got evacuation plans. | ||
| But you need to prepare for and assume. | ||
| Broadly warning Americans to avoid all non-essential travel to China. | ||
| This is going to be a real serious problem. | ||
| France, Australia, Canada, the US, Singapore, Cambodia, Vietnam, the list goes on. | ||
| Health officials are investigating more than 100 possible cases in the US. | ||
| Germany, a man has contracted the virus. | ||
| The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide. | ||
| Japan, where a bus driver contracted the virus. | ||
| Coronavirus has killed more than 100 people there and infected more than 4,500. | ||
| We have to prepare for the worst, always. | ||
| Because if you don't, then the worst happens. | ||

War Room. | |
| Pandemic. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| We have a clear legal duty to certify the result of the election as shown by the returns that were given to us. | ||
| We cannot and should not go beyond that. | ||
| As John Adams once said, we are a government of laws, not men. | ||
| And this board needs to adhere to that principle here today. | ||
| This board must do its part to uphold the rule of law and comply with our legal duty to certify this election. | ||
| I will be supporting the motion. | ||
| Okay, welcome to the War Room. | ||
| It is Monday, the 23rd of November, the Year of Our Lord 2020, just a few minutes ago in Michigan. | ||
| The Board of Electors sorted out the certification at a statewide level. | ||
| Still a little confusion on who exactly voted for what. | ||
| and what this means for going forward, what the legislature's role is going to be, what the court's role is going to be, and what even this commission's role is going to be in the Secretary of State. We're going to get right into it. | ||
| We're going to have Boris Epstein from the campaign join us. In the next block, the next segment, we're going to start, we're going to go to Michigan by someone who testified today. That's former state senator Patrick Kohlbeck. | ||
| Senator Kohlbeck, thank you very much for joining us today. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hey, great to be with you. | |
| Tell us, can you tell us exactly what went on? | ||
| What was this meeting today? | ||
| Why is it so important? | ||
| And why at the end, after all this testimony, all these witnesses, guys basically said, hey, it was like being a Presbyterian, right? | ||
| We were predestined to do this. | ||
| We were preordained. | ||
| There was no free will. | ||
| I'm totally confused right now, so can you sort out for our global audience? | ||
| on the John Frederick Radio Network, on Real America's Voice, Dish Channel 219, the satellite channel, cable, Channel 113 on Comcast, also Newsmax TV, and TV throughout the world on G News and G Media. | ||
| Senator Patrick Kohlbeck from Michigan. Sir, so what happened? Well, the State Board of Canvassers meeting, and that their decision today was whether or not to certify the 2020 election. And I thought we provided ample evidence that highlighted how the chain of custody was broken in multiple places, and very tangible proof. | ||
| And the purpose of the Board of Canvassers is essentially to go off and assert that the election process were followed with integrity. | ||
| You can't do that based on the data that was presented. | ||
| So that gentleman whose clip you just played at the beginning from Aaron, essentially he did the exact opposite of what he read. | ||
| in regards to the law. He did not change the law. He did not canvas adequately what happened at the state level. And they went on and certified it. | ||
| And now we've got some presidential options as to how to go up and protect the integrity of the state. Okay, but here's what I'm confused about. | ||
| Is that the Wayne County, where Detroit is, last week the two commissioners, the Republican commissioners, said that they would only certify this after hitting immense pressure being called race, everything like that, conditioned upon, subject to a audit. | ||
| That they thought would take 10 days of Wayne County, and they agreed to it in the room. | ||
| As soon as they said that, the Secretary of State goes, now it's just a ministerial role, I'm not going to do it, this is certified. | ||
| They went back and rescinded their concurrence with that, their votes to go forward. | ||
| So that's still hanging out in the air. | ||
| How could today they sit here at this knowing Wayne County's got all these problems of which you go through in excruciating detail and our team here listened to the entire I think four and a half hour exercise and people go through in excruciating detail. | ||
| How can you not take care of Wayne County that's still hanging out from from last week? | ||
| It's painful. | ||
| I mean, part of the official report coming out of Wayne County is that zero registered voters were associated with 172,337 votes. | ||
| How can you attest that this election should be certified and that they have integrity in the process? | ||
| You can't. | ||
| And they just ignored it. | ||
| And the Democrats Senator Colbeck, we're going to have to reboot you. | ||
| Somehow we're not getting you on Skype. | ||
| You were there the entire time, Greg Manns. | ||
| Is it correct to report, I think it is, they can't actually associate registered voters with 172,000 things called votes. | ||
| They kind of get all mingled up. | ||
| Funny how that works. | ||
| In areas that are coming in 95% for Biden, that these votes get mingled. | ||
| And then when it comes for Republican officials, I want everybody in this audience to fully embrace what's going on here. | ||
| Fully embrace what's going on here. | ||
| The GOP that you're writing checks for, and look, Ron McDonough's done a great job, we want the GOP to win here, we want to be strong, we want to be healthy, it's the vehicle for the Trump movement. | ||
| But man, oh man, I don't know if these people don't understand that there's going to be, there's going to be, folks are going to remember this. | ||
| Am I correct in the report that the Wayne County thing's got 172,000 votes they can't ascertain, they can't align, this thing called unbalanced? | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| The discrepancies are off the charts and that goes beyond just the irregularities. | ||
| It's mathematical discrepancies that do not add up. | ||
| Okay, we had Thor, they had Charlie Spies for James' campaign. | ||
| Charlie Spies is not just a brilliant lawyer, he's a very tough hombre, and he's not a Trump guy. | ||
| I mean, he's pure Republican Party, right? | ||
| But he is, this guy does not back down at all. | ||
| He's making great arguments. | ||
| The people in there are making great arguments. | ||
| Why do the, and I now understand that it might not just be three to one. | ||
| Because the guy you heard said, hey, I don't have a choice. | ||
| I have to vote to certify this. | ||
| And then we can do an audit later, you can do an audit next, and now as soon as it passes, they go, no, no, no, no, no, no. | ||
| Just like the Secretary of State. | ||
| It's like Lucy pulling the football back on Charlie Brown, except this is not funny, right? | ||
| Well, part of it also, earlier, you have to remember, they were saying, if you don't certify, you could be charged with a felon, all these nonsense. | ||
| At some point, American patriots, you have to call their bluff, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
That was not happening today in Michigan. | |
| And the forgotten victim here in Michigan, everybody wants to talk about Donald Trump. | ||
| Let's remember John James, man. | ||
| This guy got taken down hard by the same finesse that took down Donald Trump. | ||
| And that should be a specific concern for the people right there in Michigan, no matter what happens with the national election. | ||
| It'd be a be a fantastic sign. | ||
| Just going back to Charlie Spees real quick. | ||
| He was making specific legal arguments inciting law towards these state officials and they would say, well, I respectfully disagree with you. | ||
| And then he would come back and say, no, I disagree with you because here's the law. | ||
| And if you weren't just rubber stamps to pass through what the counties are doing, Then you really don't have any role here and they should just send it directly to the governor. | ||
| But even with the thing is Wayne County still has not been this whole rescission and I don't know why they didn't go to court and drop an injunction. | ||
| It just seems like the same passive nature. | ||
| Of the leaders of the legislature that came the other day and the one guy in the house goes, hey, we're going to have a constitutional crisis if they don't do it. | ||
| He said if they don't certify the state's a constitutional crisis, the guy in the Senate goes, hey, I don't want any part of this, right? | ||
| Yet you've got these massive discrepancies. | ||
| This is not where it's just a bunch of crazy Trump people running around. | ||
| We don't actually have the receipts, right? | ||
| This is where there's a huge discrepancy and that came from these two very low-key but tough canvassers. | ||
| The Republicans in Wayne County the other night were basically bludgeoned by being doxxed in real time. | ||
| In real time they said the thing and the guy they're talking about the kids the the high school of the of the of I think was the woman's children's high school and then finally they said on a condition we'll do it on a condition it's got to be audited right and then the Secretary of State who is a piece of work just kind of comes in and says not we're not doing that yeah and even more | ||
| Troublesome was some of the stories that Monica Palmer had shared during her testimony today about being sent violent images of women being killed in even more graphic detail. | ||
| I know we're going to see that on Chris Hayes tonight. | ||
| OK, do we have him by phone? | ||
| We have Patrick Colbeck by phone. | ||
| So Patrick, where does this all stand? | ||
| Because at one point they're arguing, oh, you've got to certify so then you can do the audit. | ||
| And then it was very confusing, and people, the Trump people, are concerned that we're going to be bait-and-switch like last week. | ||
| They're going to say, oh, well, we got to certify, but it's conditioned upon an audit of Wayne County, and then when the Secretary of State says no, they rescind it, they go, hey, sorry, not sorry. | ||
| So tell us what exactly is going on. | ||
| So once it's certified, the audit doesn't mean anything as far as election results are concerned. | ||
| It can't change the election results. | ||
| So that's why we're trying to get the audit before the certification vote today. | ||
| So really we're only left with two basic options going forward. | ||
| One is for the legislature to stand up and assert its U.S. | ||
| Constitution Article II duties. | ||
| I mean, they have the ability to assign electors as they see fit. | ||
| That's a pretty broad statement in the U.S. | ||
| Constitution. | ||
| The other track is the It's the legal system, either through the state court system or the federal court system. | ||
| But Patrick, aren't you going to need an audit for either one of those? | ||
| I mean, you're going to need evidence, I understand, for the courts, but aren't both guys going to sit there and go, hey, you got a certification, you said you needed to do that to have an audit, where's the audit? | ||
| What's the mechanism for actually going in now and actually, like, for instance, go back to the $172,000. | ||
| That you say is not aligned, or you've said there's not registration for of 172,000 votes in Wayne County alone. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, that's in their official report. | |
| In their official report. | ||
| Okay, how do you go to court, or how do you go before the legislature and make an argument if you haven't somehow gone in and tried to balance that, or actually get down to the precinct level and the voter rolls and see exactly what went on? | ||
| Well, obviously we failed in that goal today, because we actually tried to highlight how the chain of custody was broken. | ||
| Today's discussion was a process description. | ||
| This is about ensuring the integrity of the election records, and we thought we made the case that There is no integrity in these election records and it shouldn't be certified. | ||
| There are legal threads as well in criminal cases and they actually threw that out in the middle of this with a question from the Dems suggesting that because we didn't file any lawsuits or charges with the Attorney General that our arguments are not valid. | ||
| But that's for another day. | ||
| That's for the court proceeding. | ||
| Today's discussion was over did we follow a fair election process and clearly That is not the case, and we can attest to that in a series of hearings that are currently planned in the Legislature, either for later this week or for next week, to go off and hear exactly what happened. | ||
| So you're saying that these hearings, and they talk about happening either Friday or maybe the weekend or Monday or Tuesday next week, these would actually take place in front of the Michigan Legislature, and what would that accomplish for our audience? | ||
| What would that accomplish? | ||
| Well, if it would give them hopefully some backbone, because they're going to hear all this testament that they've refused to hear to date. | ||
| Everybody's been saying there is no evidence of voter fraud, there is no evidence of voter fraud. | ||
| We've got plenty of evidence. | ||
| You've actually got to read it in order to understand what's really happening here. | ||
| And so it'll at least force them to read the evidence and hear the evidence. | ||
| And when they see that, then that hopefully will give them a little bit of courage to actually do the right thing. | ||
| And identify exactly what's going on. | ||
| And identify that this was an attempt to subvert the election. | ||
| It was deliberate. | ||
| And the people that were responsible, they can start filing criminal charges while we sort out the electoral votes via the legislature. | ||
| Senator, I tell you what, we would like to reach out to you. | ||
| I want to talk to you about this evidence, but I've got the campaign's lawyer on, and then we've got the lawsuit in Pennsylvania that's been filed. | ||
| We want to reach out to you later, because this thing today was very dramatic and a big moment in this whole process. | ||
| So if you don't mind, my production staff will reach out to you in a little while. | ||

Senator Patrick Kohlbeck. | |
| Who was one of the foremost fighters in this entire situation. | ||
| Okay, we're going to take a short commercial break. | ||
| There's a lot happening in Michigan. | ||
| There's a lot more that's going to happen in Michigan. | ||
| A lot in Pennsylvania. | ||
| Some good news in Pennsylvania today. | ||
| Very good news on the data analytics side. | ||
| Talking about having the receipts. | ||
| Also in Wisconsin, things are moving forward there as the Wisconsin people dig in hard. | ||
| Uh, good news all around. | ||
| Except for this thing in Michigan, because it's very confusing. | ||
| They had all the opportunity not to certify this vote, and quite frankly, I think they folded, right? | ||
| I think they folded. | ||
| I think they hid behind a very legalistic argument, not a legal argument. | ||
| Okay, short break. | ||
| We're going to be back with boris epstein from the campaign in just a second War room Pandemic. | ||

With Stephen K. Banham. | |
| The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide. | ||
| War Room. | ||
| Pandemic. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Banham. | ||
| It appears to be a bit in conflict with statutory language. | ||
| Specific to the testimony earlier today, do you have any comments on that? | ||
| I believe we have the opportunity to request a review, a meaningful review. | ||
| We need to look at the Wayne County results and I think that you have time and the safe harbor limit dates to make that happen. | ||
| So I believe that that should happen. | ||
| I believe it should happen. | ||
| This is what I like about the Democrats. | ||
| The Democrats dig in And then you say, hey, tough. | ||
| Suck on that. | ||
| Right? | ||
| No. | ||
| And we got these people. | ||
| You know, I really think maybe we should, kinda. | ||
| Right? | ||
| No. | ||
| Wayne County's got 172,000 votes that are, was it misaligned? | ||
| Is that what they call it? | ||
| Misaligned. | ||
| They're dropping them off by the bushel full there. | ||
| Detroit and Wayne County has impressed me more than Philadelphia. | ||
| I kept saying Philadelphia's by the pallet full. | ||
| This really is. | ||
| Okay, now Boris Epstein. | ||
| I know he gets upset when I start rambling, so let's get him in here. | ||
| He's a busy man. | ||
| Boris! | ||
| Steve, how are you? | ||
| I'm not feeling it. | ||
| I'm not doing great. | ||
| Today in Michigan, you got Charlie Spees, you got your guy Thor, you got former Senator Kohlbeck, you got hammers that are dropping bombs in here. | ||
| Wayne County, they retraded the commissioners last week. | ||
| They committed to a full audit. | ||
| It's going to take 10 days. | ||
| They're looking for 12 to 14 days. | ||
| They want to go up to the safe harbor. | ||
| And they're bringing evidence. | ||
| I mean, evidence after evidence after evidence. | ||
| And then the two commissioners fold like chief suits. | ||
| And I still don't understand their logic of why they fold it, because I'm not buying it. | ||
| So can you explain this to me and make our audience... Sure. | ||
| Well, obviously, here's the reaction to what just happened, and here are the next steps. | ||
| Big picture, Michigan is absolutely not done yet. | ||
| So to the audience, keep calm and carry on. | ||
| Everything's going to be fine. | ||
| So in terms of Michigan, here's what happened. | ||
| Yeah, I heard the Republicans, just for some reason, they didn't respect the fact that the Wayne County Board of Councilmembers, the Republicans, said that they were coerced to try and change their original votes, and then they, under affidavit, they signed affidavits, and said that they did not vote to certify, so Wayne County shouldn't have been certified, where 71%, you mentioned it, 71% of the voter rolls in Wayne County are not balanced! | ||
| Which means that the number of ballots cast and the number of ballots issued is not the same in Detroit, Wayne County. | ||
| I mean, think about that. | ||
| That is absolutely nuts. | ||
| So, Detroit was a mess. | ||
| Wayne County is a mess. | ||
| The Wayne County Board of Canvassers, the Republicans, were honest about that. | ||
| They were intimidated, but they ended up standing their ground. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And now these Republicans in the City Board... Hold on, hold on. | |
| I'm missing something. | ||
| Who stood their ground? | ||
| The two Republican members of the Wayne County Board who ended up signing up... No, they didn't. | ||
| They got hoodwinked. | ||
| No, they didn't. | ||
| They got hoodwinked. | ||
| They got hoodwinked. | ||
| They agreed to a deal with the secretary of state that didn't exist. | ||
| That's why they signed affidavits after that saying that the original vote stood. | ||
| And the rest of the, for some reason, the state board is ignoring that. | ||
| They can't just go around saying, oh, well, that original vote didn't happen. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You've got the two people voting saying we did not certify. | |
| I understand that in some theoretical conversation you had, but they just did. | ||
| That's my point. | ||
| The Democrats are playing a different game. | ||
| You guys are dressed in white and we're having a croquet match. | ||
| Don't make me start dropping up. | ||
| I've never played croquet and I don't wear white. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| I don't wear white. | ||
| You know what I mean? | ||
| This battle here, okay? | ||
| I've got the war paint on, alright? | ||
| That's not what this is about. | ||
| This is about these, unfortunately, Republicans in the State Board of Canvassers folded today. | ||
| That happened. | ||
| Now what we're going to do next is continue pressing our case. | ||
| We're hopefully working toward getting a hearing in the state legislature of Michigan to lay out extensive fraud that happened, and we're going to move forward from there. | ||
| So you got the media celebrating, and of course the leftist goes, oh, Michigan's over. | ||
| It is not over. | ||
| In the end, it's the legislature that decides. | ||
| In each state, per the Constitution, per the 12th Amendment, it's the legislature that decides who got the most legal votes in a state. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It is not a county board, and it is not a state board. | |
| It's a legislature. | ||
| So everybody just take a breath, and let's take it easy, and we're going to keep fighting. | ||
| In Pennsylvania today, we got a great decision out of... Hang on, hang on, hang on, before we get off Michigan. | ||
| Is there an audit? | ||
| Is this a We're going to exhaust every legal and legislative option we have to get to an audit. | ||
| going to be an audit? Because how are you going to have hearings and present evidence if you don't have this? Is this audit ever going to take place or not? | ||
| We are going to exhaust every legal and legislative option we have to get to an audit. | ||
| And we've got a lot of cards still to play. A lot of cards still to play. | ||
| Again, in Wayne County, the number of people who sign into poll books doesn't equal the number of ballots cast. | ||
| How does that... How can that happen? | ||
| Right? | ||
| We all know... It's easy. | ||
| It's Wayne County, Michigan. | ||
| Hey, it just did. | ||
| I saw you had the local thing, and you had Secretary of State blow up, you know, renege on the deal. | ||
| This is my point. | ||
| And maybe you're not playing, but we're playing croquet and whites, and they're playing smash mouth, you know... | ||
| This team, the Trump legal team under Rudy, we've got the boxing gloves on, okay? | ||
| Call it Rudy, call it Rocky, whatever you want, okay? | ||
| We're here fighting it out. | ||
| And everybody's listening and everybody's watching. | ||
| Rest assured, this team is not backing down. | ||
| We're fighting it out. | ||
| And Thor's a great lawyer. | ||
| He did a great job in there today. | ||
| And unfortunately, that's what these two officials in Michigan decided to do. | ||
| Who knows why? | ||
| Ted, I think we just lost Boris Epstein when he was on a roll. | ||
| Let's see if we can't get Boris back in. | ||
| I'm going to tackle for an audit and do everything we can to have the right result in Michigan, to have the legal votes counted in Michigan, which will result in the correct final determination of who won Michigan. | ||
| In the atmosphere of full disclosure, and look, and I'm not trying to belabor this, but I'm not feeling the heat from like the Michigan Republican Party. | ||
| I have, you know, I have people out there saying, hey, you really should do this like that, but that's not what the Democrats, the Democrats are playing a different game. | ||
| The Democrats are playing the power game to steal the presidency. | ||
| Okay, we're playing the marquee of Queensbury's rules. | ||
| And we keep saying, hey, Wayne County, and boom, now they got a certified election. | ||
| So I'm just making an observation that, hey, even on your legislature, you know, the courts are courts, right? | ||
| Your legislature alternative, somebody somehow has got to come up with an audit of Wayne County, or you're going to be right back in this thing that people will be pointing fingers, and I got unbalanced books. | ||
| Well, the Democrats are very happy with that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right? | |
| Because the 172,000 votes all went their way. | ||
| So unbalanced works for them. | ||
| In fact, they'll go all the way to the White House with unbalanced books. | ||
| They have no problem with that. | ||
| Here's what I'll tell you. | ||
| If you don't feel the love out of the Michigan legislature, out of the Michigan GOP, invite the head of the Michigan GOP on your show and let him know, right? | ||
| Because I don't necessarily disagree with you, and maybe they need to hear it from Steve Bannon. | ||
| Maybe they need to hear it from the deplorables. | ||
| But that's just the nature of where we are now, from what I understand. | ||
| The Republican folks in the legislature, the representatives of the Michigan GOP, are doing what they can to get us to hopefully a hearing in Michigan. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And if that happens, that'll be very important. | |
| Okay, and that'll happen sometime, I take it, after Thanksgiving. | ||
| Late this week, early next week. | ||
| Let's go on. | ||
| There actually was, we have three minutes left. | ||
| There was actually very good news out of Pennsylvania. | ||
| So let's go there and walk through what happened in Pennsylvania today. | ||
| Pennsylvania, the Third Circuit Court of Appeals granted us an expedited hearing because the Obama-appointed judge in the district court denied a motion to amend our complaint, which is absolutely outside of the norm. | ||
| You're supposed to grant those motions You're not supposed to use that as an opportunity to throw out a case just because you may not like the President of the United States. | ||
| So the Third Circuit Court of Appeals is fast-tracking that appeal, and that is very good news for us because the faster we get through, the faster we get on to the next steps, the faster we prove the extent of the fraud. | ||
| The almost 700,000 mail-in ballots that were not counted with observers present in Philadelphia and Allegheny counties and the other fraud that occurred throughout Pennsylvania. | ||
| So good news out of Pennsylvania. | ||
| The Wisconsin recount continues. | ||
| I'm hearing good reports out of there. | ||
| We're continuing to fight very, very, very hard in Georgia, fighting for a recount that includes voters, the signature matching, voter signature matching. | ||
| In Arizona, we're getting full information, further information on the election fraud there. | ||
| We're turning up at 150,000, about 150,000 people there registered to vote after the original date by which you were supposed to register expired. | ||
| And then the courts extended it. | ||
| Well, guess what? | ||
| Only the legislature is allowed to change voting rules for president. | ||
| It can't be the courts, and it can't be a secretary of state. | ||
| About 30,000 or more people in Arizona voted who didn't prove their citizenship status. | ||
| You've got 11,000 overvotes in Arizona. | ||
| So, a lot of issues going on in Arizona. | ||
| And we are running all these down. | ||
| We're fighting in every corner. | ||
| Again, fighting not just for the president and the presidency. | ||
| We're fighting to make sure every legal vote counts and American elections are full of integrity. | ||
| And this crap that the Democrats have been pulling for decades now—1960s Chicago, Texas, and on and on and on—stops and is held to account. | ||
| Boris, real quickly, by the way, it's a great report, a lot of action going on, a lot of good things. | ||
| Number one, did you guys file in Georgia today? | ||
| You were going to file in federal court. | ||
| Did that actually happen? | ||
| The motion for recalc was already filed. | ||
| Today we sent a letter to the Secretary of State pushing for a true recalc, which includes signature matching and determining on where that goes. | ||
| We will absolutely take every legal step, every step necessary to get to that result. | ||
| In about 15 seconds, there's rumors there may be actually testimony in front of the Pennsylvania legislature. | ||
| Is that going to happen? | ||
| We are looking to get a hearing across the country in these states to, again, to continue to underscore the amount of fraud perpetrated by Democrats against the President and against the American people. | ||
| Boris, what's your Twitter handle and your Parler handle, quickly? | ||
| At BorisCP on Twitter and the one and only at Boris on Parler. | ||
| Rock and roll. | ||
| Boris Epstein, thank you very much from the campaign. | ||
| Rudy's right-hand man. | ||
| A lot of good things. | ||
| We're going to go through all this in depth. | ||
| We're going to go to Pennsylvania next for Congressman Mike Kelly's landmark lawsuit with his lawyer next. | ||

| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Welcome to War Room Pandemic! | ||
| I want to tell everybody out there, I said there are going to be good days and there are going to be bad days. | ||
| And there are going to be some days that are good and bad. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| Let me tell you something that's good. | ||
| What's good is we're going to get a couple of lawyers on here next that are bringing lawsuits. | ||
| One from Mike Kelly, the congressman from north of Pittsburgh, between Pittsburgh and Erie. | ||
| And Mike Kelly's a fighter. | ||
| And I don't say that because he's Irish, and I don't say it because he's Terry Hanratty, who was one of my idols, Notre Dame quarterback, who was one of my idols as a kid. | ||
| It's because Kelly is a defender of the Constitution, so we're going to get to Greg Tufell in a second, his lawyer, that's arguing this constitutional case that Dershowitz said yesterday, Maria Bartiroma, probably one of the smartest cases that are out there. | ||
| Also, we're going to have Phil Klein on here from the Thomas More Society, who's got another case that he's taken, it's got Zuckerberg, it's going to have Zuckerberg all wrapped up in this thing. | ||
| We started the show today with Darren Beatty, this morning, from Revolver News, going through this amazing analysis that he had a team do, and the names of the team will come out later. | ||
| Right now, because they're faculty members of certain universities, they're under the gun because these people are all being intimidated. | ||
| But his analysis of Montgomery County will make your head blow up. | ||
| Then he's got a piece out today, we're going to have him back on tomorrow about how they actually did it, how they actually did the finesse, as Tariq tells us. | ||
| Also, Rahim Kassam and the rest of the analysis in Pennsylvania was all another analysis. | ||
| This led people to get excited. | ||
| We had so many crowdsourced volunteers. | ||
| We can tell you, we've got data with top data scientists and what they're finding out right now, what they're seeing will blow your head up. | ||
| And this is going to be hard evidence of cheating. | ||
| And let me tell you why the tell, you can tell they know they stole it. | ||
| Here's the tell. | ||
| Look at his so-called administration. | ||
| Normally when a democratic administration, you get the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, MSNBC, you got every show is packed with a guy jockeying for a cabinet position. | ||
| You got pieces being dropped all over. | ||
| Everywhere. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Leaks. | |
| This guy's interested, this head of the investment bank, this guy wants to be Federal Reserve, this guy wants to be Secretary of Treasury, this wants to be Defense. | ||
| Outside of the intelligence apparatus, there's only three departments that count. | ||
| The Treasury Department, The Defense Department and Secretary of State, right? | ||
| Treasury, Defense, and State. | ||
| The power! | ||
| The power! | ||
| The power cabinet positions. | ||
| He's filled them. | ||
| He's put his guys up here. | ||
| We're going to have the clip later where I'm trashing this guy back in October. | ||
| He's got grundoons on grundoons. | ||
| He's had a guy that's been an intern for Clinton and Biden all his life. | ||
| He's just a bag carrier. | ||
| Tony Blinken. | ||
| A complete non-event. | ||
| And there's nobody running around, I gotta have it, I gotta have it, I gotta have it. | ||
| Right? | ||
| Same with Defense, Flournoy, another rehash, right? | ||
| Another apparatchik that's been around forever. | ||
| And, oh my God, they went and got Janet Yellen. | ||
| They got Janet Yellen to be Treasury. | ||
| The old retread from Federal Reserve. | ||
| This is because nobody wants to be associated with what's going to go down in American history as an attempt to thwart the will of the people and steal the office of the presidency and go back to these half measures. | ||
| I mean, this whole thing, this is just like Obama's junior varsity, right? | ||
| This is all the JV team that suits up for a road game. | ||
| Well, he's not going to be president. | ||
| And you can already tell there's no heat on this guy. | ||
| Nobody wants to do it. | ||
| Why does nobody want to do it? | ||
| You remember those Wall Street guys, those corporate guys, they kill for these positions. | ||
| They get a big portrait. | ||
| They can walk around the rest of their life. | ||
| Granddad was the Secretary of Treasury. | ||
| There's nobody who wants the jobs! | ||
| Why don't they want the jobs? | ||
| How does Tony Blinken? | ||
| Tony Blinken's a grundoon. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| Flournoy, a grundoon. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| Janet Yellen, a retread. | ||
| This is what you got. | ||
| Retreads, never wases, has-beens, or grundoons. | ||
| There's no heat. | ||
| The reason there's no heat, they know that the finesse is in. | ||
| They know they did it on the finesse. | ||
| It's so obvious now. | ||
| You wait until you see the data packages in this thing. | ||
| It's in your face. | ||
| That's what it says. | ||
| No deep state. | ||
| It's in your face state. | ||
| There's nothing subtle about this. | ||
| This is in your grill. | ||
| And that's why we're never going to back down. | ||
| We're the side of righteousness now. | ||
| I want to get to Greg Tufo from OGC Law, who's representing Congressman Kelly. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Greg? | |
| Alan Dershowitz, who I think is considered one of the top constitutional lawyers in the nation, he's on Maria Bartiromo, I think, saying that, hey, of all the cases he's seen out there, he thinks this is the one that may have the most merit. | ||
| Can you walk our audience through what you are going to argue, and Congressman Kelly are going to argue, and why it fell to Congressman Mike Kelly from north of Pittsburgh and south of Erie to do this for the nation. | ||
| Is he off mute? | ||
| Thank you. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Am I muted? | |
| Yeah, you're not now, Greg. | ||
| You're good. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sorry about that. | |
| Hi, and thanks for having me on the show, Steve. | ||
| I'll give you the basics. | ||
| The Pennsylvania Constitution allows voting in one of two ways. | ||
| One is in person. | ||
| The other is if you qualify as an absentee ballot elector in Pennsylvania. | ||
| So, absentee ballots are permitted under the Pennsylvania Constitution if you are in the military, you're away from your voting district, if you're too ill or disabled to vote, if you have religious reasons that preclude you from voting in person, or if you work for the county. | ||
| Span that list to anybody for any reason, which is what Act 77 did, the law in PA that expanded mail-in balloting to anybody for any reason, you would need a PA constitutional amendment to do it lawfully. | ||
| And the Pennsylvania legislature, in recognition of that, started the process to amend the Constitution to allow mail-in balloting. | ||
| But then for some strange reason, decided to go ahead and proceed to enact Act 77 and act like it's already valid law. | ||
| In order to pass a PA constitutional amendment, you have to enact it in two consecutive legislative sessions. | ||
| Then you have to put it up to a vote on the Pennsylvania electorate. | ||
| And you can do it on an emergency basis, if need be, under the Constitution. | ||
| So you can do it quickly, but you have to get the will of the PA electorate on the question before you can change the PA Constitution. | ||
| They didn't do that here. | ||
| They just went ahead and enacted, Governor Wolf signed it, Act 77, they implemented widespread mail-in balloting before the Constitutional Amendment. | ||
| Ironically, when that Constitutional Amendment comes around for a public vote, as it eventually will, because they did start the process, People will be sending mail-in ballots to decide whether they're allowed to send in mail-in ballots, which is a little... So we recognize that a year after the statute was passed, that was unconstitutional. | ||
| Mike Kelly and others that are plaintiffs in this case, Sean Parnell, were upset to see how mail-in ballots played out. | ||
| And they engaged lawyers like myself to review the situation and see if there was anything that could be done. | ||
| And that's when it was determined that what they had done was unconstitutional. | ||
| And those arguments were raised, you know, as soon as we recognized they existed, basically, which was belatedly. | ||
| I was engaged on Friday. | ||
| We filed the complaint on Saturday at 4 a.m. | ||
| And so that's the basics of that case. | ||
| Greg, let me just ask you, because I think a lot, particularly the opposition, are going to say, hey, the legislature in Pennsylvania, the last time I checked, I think is controlled by Republicans, just an observation. | ||
| This thing went on, it wasn't done in the dark of night, it kind of had a process. | ||
| Why was this never brought up at the time or why did no one go and sue at the time? | ||
| Why are we doing it three weeks after we've already got a vote and they're going to argue a vote that you didn't like because you wouldn't do this if Donald Trump was leading. | ||
| Mike Kelly wouldn't do it if Donald Trump was winning. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No one who realized it was Unconstitutional apparently wanted to challenge it. | |
| They were fine with it, I guess. | ||
| And the rest of us didn't realize it was unconstitutional. | ||
| Not everybody walks around knowing about Supreme Court precedents from the 1800s and the 1920s in Pennsylvania and understands the ins and outs of what is and is not constitutional in terms of how voting laws have changed in Pennsylvania. | ||
| So, unfortunately, whoever realized it was unconstitutional any sooner than these plaintiffs didn't choose to raise it for whatever reason. | ||
| And the rest of us didn't realize it. | ||
| So that's why it didn't happen. | ||
| Greg, why is Dershowitz saying that of all the things he's seen out there, he thinks you've got the cleanest case and really the thing that's got it. | ||
| I think he implied really what has to go to the Supreme Court for a decision. | ||
| What is it about your case that Dershowitz is even saying, I think this is the strongest case out there, as I look at everything? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Having heard his comments, I'm definitely going to be anxious to go read them when we're done. | |
| But if I had to guess, I would assume it's because in our case, unlike all the other cases you probably have been reporting about, all the other cases require clear and convincing evidence of sufficient amount of fraud to overturn the result of the election, which is an enormous burden to try and carry in court. | ||
| And very difficult to gather that kind of evidence very quickly. | ||
| Our case is purely legal issues. | ||
| All the parties involved have already said on the record with the court that they agree it's purely legal issues. | ||
| Was Act 77 constitutional or not? | ||
| We believe very strongly the law clearly shows it was not. | ||
| Then the question blows down to what's the remedy if the court agrees that it's not constitutional? | ||
| What should be done about it? | ||
| I take it the remedy that you're looking for is to toss the whole thing out and have the, What do you think, in your mind, is a remedy to something this draconian? | ||
|
unidentified
|
In the complaint itself, we ask that the court issue an injunction presenting certification of any count that includes unauthorized illegal votes that are contrary to what's allowed under the Constitution. | |
| So, you know, and we also asked or suggested that the court could throw it to the Pennsylvania legislature to make determinations with respect to at least delegates for vice president and president of the Electoral College. | ||
| So, you know, the legislature and the governor together enacted this law, made this mess. | ||
| They're ultimately going to have to figure out a solution when it's declared unconstitutional. | ||
| But what we want the court to do is enjoin any certification of a vote that includes unlawful votes. | ||
| And I just want to make sure, your definition of unlawful votes in this situation is essentially mail-in votes that were not gone through the traditional absentee vote process. | ||
| All the 2.6 million votes, 2.4 million of them, or how many, you know, 80 or 90 percent of them, is what you consider basically illegal votes. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So the illegal votes would be mail-in votes right now. | |
| I should clarify I suppose that obviously mail-in votes that were proper absentee votes would be okay and mail-in votes that for whatever reason were carried to the polling place and they voted in person would possibly get around the problem as well. | ||
| So it's not the entire 2.6 million. | ||
| A substantial percentage of those. | ||
| Greg, we've got about a minute left. | ||
| What's the process from here? | ||
| You filed at 4 a.m. | ||
| on Saturday morning. | ||
| The clock's ticking. | ||
| Safe Harbor's on December 8th. | ||
| Electoral College meets on the 14th. | ||
| What's the timing of your suit? | ||
| When do you guys get your first hearing and when do you start rolling? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Already had preliminary scheduling conference with the Commonwealth Court today. | |
| We're expected to file briefs on jurisdictional issues tomorrow by 9 a.m. | ||
| The court will hopefully schedule on an expedited basis the remaining hearing necessary to resolve the case thereafter. | ||
| So you think this is something that powers through Thanksgiving weekend? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I mean, it's something that could be decided as quickly as within a few days of now. | |
| If it's purely legal issues, as all the parties agree, and it's fully brief, the court could decide it very quickly. | ||
| Greg Tufo. | ||
| Greg, do you have social media? | ||
| Is there any way people can keep up to date on all the current developments? | ||
| Do you have Twitter or Parler? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| I don't do any of that stuff. | ||
| Sorry. | ||
| Okay, fine. | ||
| We'll figure out how to get there. | ||
| Greg, thank you very much for being on. | ||
| You've been tremendous. | ||
| Great, great interview. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| We will figure. | ||
| I think Congressman Kelly and his comms director is fantastic. | ||
| We'll make sure to get their Twitter handles and all that up because this is going to be one that's, I think, going to be quite controversial. | ||
| That was the lawyer that is arguing the case for Congressman Mike Kelly up in Pennsylvania. | ||
| We're going to take a short commercial break. | ||
| We're going to return. | ||
| We're going to try to get the Michigan senator back on to go through what the evidence is to check the receipts next on War Room Pandemic. | ||
|

|
War Room. | |
| Pandemic. | ||
| With Stephen K. Banham. | ||
| The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide. | ||
| War Room. | ||
| Pandemic. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Banham. | ||
| Welcome back to the show. | ||
| We're going to go back to Michigan and Senator Patrick Kolbeck. | ||
| Senator, thank you for rejoining us again after we talked about Pennsylvania and the suits going on there and with the campaign. | ||
| You talked about you're tired and you're frustrated when people say there's no evidence. | ||
| You're saying, hey, today we showed evidence and we're going to show more evidence. | ||
| We've got eight minutes in the segment. | ||
| Can you just walk through, in your mind's eye, what is the evidence you presented and why it's evidence? | ||
| All right, well today we were focused on the process itself of holding a high-integrity election. | ||
| So one of the key terms associated with that is something called chain of custody. | ||
| It's the same thing as chain of custody when it comes to a criminal trial, except in this case we want to assert that the validity of the election results. | ||
| And so I usually, if you go to letsfixstuff.org, I got a list of about 12 different artifacts in the chain of custody, but I'm just going to focus in on four if that's okay for right now. | ||
| And the first one is a key one. | ||
| And by the way, you break any of the links in this chain of custody, you break the integrity of the election. | ||
| And the higher up in that chain, you break it. | ||
| Everything downstream of that chain, of that link, breaks as well. | ||
| So I'm going to start off with the top link in the chain of custody, and that's the qualified voter file. | ||
| That's the list of people who are eligible to vote in the state. | ||
| And in the state of Michigan, I think we talked about this last show, we were highlighting that there's 8.1 million registered voters in the state of Michigan. | ||
| The only problem with that, if you go off and do a demographics analysis, is that only 7.8 million actually have achieved voting age here in the state of Michigan. | ||
| So there's a 300,000 vote gap there alone. | ||
| Then we did an analysis of the first time Detroit absentee voter. | ||
| And about 50,000 of those, there was about 50,000 of them in total. | ||
| And we had some grassroots volunteers just go off and do the work of analyzing that. | ||
| They found out 680 people that are extremely dedicated to the election process because they were dead and they had voted. | ||
| We found another 12,000 that were so dedicated that they didn't even have a home. | ||
| They were living out in the middle of a blank field. | ||
| So they were so dedicated to get out to vote that they didn't have a place to live, but they were gonna go out and vote. | ||
| And a lot of examples like that all the way across the board. | ||
| Then we get to the next key link in the chain of custody, and that is the poll book. | ||
| The poll book is essentially a precinct-specific extract of the qualified voter file. | ||
| And in it, this is something that's put out to the election officials, to the poll workers, so that they can verify the identity of everybody who submits a ballot to go off and vote. | ||
| So if you're voting in person, you'll see it with the poll workers. | ||
| They'll be sitting there. | ||
| In some states, you're required to show an ID. | ||
| In Michigan, you can ask for an ID, but you're not required to show an ID. | ||
| And verify who you are. | ||
| And if once they verify who you are, they hand you a ballot and then you can go off and vote. | ||
| If it's an absentee ballot that you're voting via absentee, then they've got to verify that the signature that you have on the ballot envelope matches the signature that's in that poll book. | ||
| And if it doesn't, then you're not eligible to vote. | ||
| Well, in the city of Detroit, what happened was that they really kind of had four different versions of the poll book. | ||
| They had the initial electronic poll book that was a poll of the qualified voter file from the state, effective the Sunday before the election. | ||
| Then in the middle of the night, they started slapping down pieces of paper that were kind of referring to as a supplemental paper poll book. | ||
| And then they started typing in any names that weren't in the poll book yet directly at the direction of the Detroit City Clerk. | ||
| Against that backdrop, there's actually a separate instance of the poll book at the precincts where people were voting in person. | ||
| And what that opened up the door to is that somebody could actually vote twice. | ||
| If you submitted your absentee ballot late enough in the process and it checked off by the absentee voter precinct that you had voted, well, that's not going to show up in the in-person poll book. | ||
| And so you could have actually voted twice in the city of Detroit the way they configured their election processes. | ||
| So poll books are a very important area as well. | ||
| Then let's skip down to the next item here, a key artifact, and that's the ballot themselves. | ||
| I mean, we heard about all the late-night drops of ballots. | ||
| They've already admitted that they weren't secured at all. | ||
| There wasn't a seal in there. | ||
| Supposedly, these ballots came from the Detroit Elections Bureau and the city clerk's office, and they had validated all of the the signatures of all these absentee ballots and then they were just submitting them to us at 345 in the morning to go off and get counted at the counting boards. There was no seal, there was no chain of custody, there's no control over who put envelopes in there, who didn't | ||
| put envelopes, and that's a big concern. | ||
| We also have the drop boxes that were located all across the city of Detroit. | ||
| Thanks to good old Zuckerberg money, about $250 million, he made sure that there were a lot of drop boxes in predominantly Democrat communities so that they would have all kinds of opportunities to drop them without any sort of chain of custody regarding who controlled, who put what in there. | ||
| So somebody could dump in 100 ballots there and nobody would know. | ||
| They say that they're monitored 24-7, but they haven't seen any footage to that effect. | ||
| So the ballots is another key one, obviously. | ||
| And then the last one, the one that I keep harping on regarding information technology, because, you know, Stalin's quote is pretty famous, right? | ||
| It's not, he who votes that counts, it's he who counts the vote that counts. | ||
| So this vote tally, you know, is the end of the line in regards to the election. | ||
| That's what everybody's interested in. | ||
| They're interested in seeing those final vote tallies. | ||
| Well, I went in and I highlighted that the connections, the tabulator computers and the adjudicator computers and the local data center, if you will, for that Detroit A.V. | ||
| accounting board were all networked to each other, and you can go over and you can show the routing of a cable that connected to the Internet. | ||
| And you could see the proof that they were all connected to the Internet. | ||
| If you go look in the bottom right hand corner of all your Windows 10 based PCs and you see the little window on the bottom there is a little icon that if you roll the mouse over there it says connected to the internet. | ||
| But all the Detroit elected officials that I contacted that night refused. | ||
| They said specifically that it was not connected to the internet. | ||
| And from my background I know differently. | ||
| It was connected to the internet. | ||
| And why is that a big deal? | ||
| Because the way most normal precincts operate in my old Senate district Is that the only time that they would start reporting out the vote talent? | ||
| I tell you, Senator Colbeck, hang on for one second. | ||
| We're going to take a quick commercial break and we're going to come back. | ||
| I want to finish up with you. | ||
| We're going to actually also have Phil Kline on here also, so we're going to take a short commercial break. | ||
| We've got former Senator Patrick Colbeck from Michigan joining us. | ||
| He actually testified today. | ||
| He was a witness at the State Canvassers meeting, which did certify the election. | ||
| There was a lot of gnashing of teeth and saying, oh, now we can go do an audit. | ||
| There's some discrepancy about that. | ||
| We'll get into all of it next when we return on War Room Pandemic. |
