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. | ||
| That 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 a hundred 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 and the worst happens, War Room. | ||
| Pandemic. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Let me raise my hand. | ||
| We know about Perkins Coie. | ||
| You know about it. | ||
| So does the RNC. | ||
| So does every PAC in the country, every Republican donor. | ||
| But they ignore everything they do. | ||
| Mark Elias, why don't you guys put together a half billion dollars and go hire him and get him out of your way? | ||
| It's extraordinary. | ||
| The president warns for months and months and months about mail-in ballots and the potential for fraud, and the Republicans do nothing, Stephen. | ||
| Nothing. | ||

What in hell is wrong? | |
| What's wrong with the Republican Party? | ||
| Where is the outrage? | ||
| Tens of millions of ballots. | ||
| Where the hell are the Republicans? | ||
| No signature checks. | ||
| You're right, Lou. | ||
| Where are they? | ||
| Tens of millions of ballots nationwide, no signature checks, no citizenship checks, no residency checks, no age checks, no criminal record checks, not even checking if you're alive or dead? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Are we a third world country? | |
| Are we a banana republic? | ||
| What has it come to? | ||
| If you count only legal ballots from U.S. | ||
| citizens, this president gets four more years. | ||
| Let me, and you know, from your lips to God's ears, the reality is that this president right now is fighting, and let's be straightforward about it, he's fighting all alone. | ||
| And Ted Cruz has stepped up to say he'll argue before the Supreme Court. | ||
| Why on God's green earth wouldn't the White House jump on it? | ||
| Why shouldn't they accept that right now? | ||
|
unidentified
|
And I'll just say this one other thing, though. | |
| If three state legislatures, I just outlined, one correction in Wisconsin... No, no, Stephen, I won't let you do this. | ||
| I'm not going to let you do that. | ||
| I'm not going to let you do that. | ||
| I ask a question. | ||
| You and I, we're reasonably smart and decent fellows. | ||
| Why don't you answer me? | ||
| That's all I'm asking here, Stephen. | ||
| Why don't you guys jump and salute Ted Cruz and say, yes, we want you on the team now. | ||
| My God, this is not a time for internecine nonsense on the part of the Republican Party, which is watching its blood drain into the streets because they're gutless. | ||
| Live from our nation's capital, you're in the war room, the one and only Lou Dobbs landed down last night. | ||
| You know, Lou Dobbs has been at the forefront of this Trump movement for 30 years. | ||
| I mean, President Trump's the first admitted watching Lou Dobbs on CNN talking about trade, talking about China, talking about manufacturing being taken out of this country was one of the things that got him thinking about it. | ||
| And Lou Dobbs last night, I think that was one of the best summaries. | ||
| And Stephen Miller did a good summary of where the steel came from. | ||
| But Lou Dobbs said we're beyond that. | ||
| We've got the facts. | ||
| It's how do you execute on the facts? | ||
| And it's just a very, very powerful back and forth. | ||
| You're in the War Room. | ||
| It is the 8th of December, the Year of Our Lord 2020. | ||
| We were going to start With a commemoration of what a important day in American history. | ||
| This is 79 years ago when Franklin Delano Roosevelt went to Capitol Hill and gave his day of infamy speech. | ||
| We will get to that. | ||
| A little later in the show, because it's so packed, everything, we've got Jesse Morgan, the truck driver, who had the trailer of between 144,000 and 288,000 missing ballots that came from Bethpage, New York, right up to Pennsylvania. | ||
| We've got him on the show. | ||
| We've got Jason Jones talking about the Chinese Communist Party and their involvement in all of this. | ||
| The Chinese Communist Party is a transnational criminal organization. | ||
| We've got this bombshell lawsuit by Ken Paxson, the Attorney General of the Republic of Texas, oops, excuse me, the State of Texas, who threw down last night, right before midnight in the Supreme Court. | ||
| We're going to get to all of that with a number of experts, but I want to start where the fight is really white-hot right now, and that would be in the state of Georgia. | ||
| I want to go to John Fredericks from the John Fredericks Radio Network. | ||
| John Fredericks has been, is on a 12-city, 12-day bus tour of Georgia. | ||
| He's the Oracle of the Deplorables and the guy in the 2016 campaign that I felt of all the talk radio hosts, all the great talk radio hosts, actually had the best feel for the Deplorables. | ||
| That's only gotten better over the last four years. | ||
| He is down in Athens where the Senate's meeting President Trump's now actively engaged. | ||
| But John, before we get to the specifics of Georgia, and particularly the great reporting you're doing on your new news site and newspaper with Michael Patrick Leahy that broke this incredible story about Fulton County just getting in the face of the deplorables on a full heckle about the chain of custody of hundreds of thousands of ballots. | ||
| I want to go and get your thoughts on Brother Lou Dobbs last night thrown down hard. | ||
| I think he summed it up perfectly. | ||
| What are your thoughts about that? | ||
| He wants us to get in the game. | ||
| He wants the Republicans to get in the game. | ||
| I mean, I agree with him 100%. | ||
| You can't watch that video without saying to yourself, what in God's name did the Republicans think were going to happen to them? | ||
| And maybe they didn't care. | ||
| Or maybe they thought, you know what, let's just get rid of this guy, and we can go back to normal, win these two Senate seats, and be done with him, and wash your hands and go back to the party of Romney, Goldman Sachs, Cheap labor and shipping our jobs over to China. | ||
| I mean, you really got a question now, Steve. | ||
| Everything that's gone on, why weren't there poll watchers? | ||
| Why wasn't there the biggest law firms ever handling this? | ||
| And as far as Ted Cruz is concerned, he stepped up and said, I'll argue this in front of the Supreme Court. | ||
| Why isn't the White House jumping on this? | ||
| What possibly could be the reason not to? | ||
| I mean, it's very discouraging when you're out here working like we are, you know, seven days a week, 20 hours a day trying to figure this out, and Ted Cruz steps up and wipes crickets. | ||
| I mean, who is running the show in there? | ||
| I mean, we're really getting sick and tired of these consultants and others, people that come from the RNC that have these petty problems that don't Uh, that don't stand up for the deplorables. | ||
| I mean, Ted Cruz said, I'll argue the case. | ||
| He handed them a gift on a silver platter. | ||
| Why isn't that, why didn't they jump on that, Steve, immediately? | ||
| Answer me that question. | ||
| No, I think it's, I think what Lou Dobbs laid it out is that you've got guys like Cruz, there's a series, you know, Mark Levin and Ted Cruz from the conservative movement are as big experts we have on the Constitution. | ||
| And when Ted Cruz is sitting there going, hey, and technically we don't even know if he can do it, right? | ||
| It's a whole technical question about that. | ||
| But when Ted Cruz steps up and volunteers and says, I'll do it, why isn't that an immediate embrace? | ||
| I think that's, I think that's the question. | ||
| I mean, you've got, you've got forces out there In every one of these states, you've got Rudy's team, and even Rudy in the hospital, right? | ||
| He's got these teams on the ground in the states that are pursuing these things actively. | ||
| And all over, I think we've got very strong news. | ||
| It's one of the reasons I think the Democrats are getting worried. | ||
| Also, the polling is coming our way. | ||
| At the bottom of the hour, Raheem Kassam is going to be on. | ||
| We're going to walk through some of the math you can see in this is with full suppression john as you know full suppression uh... by the mainstream media of this and i want to go i've got a lot to to go through with you about this on georgia and other things but people have to understand People are stepping up, and this is to save the Republican Party. | ||
| And you're one of them. | ||
| Michael Patrick Leahy and you are doing reporting down in Georgia that no national media is doing, and nobody on the conservative right is doing. | ||
| This story today, and people have to understand this, your focus, Michael Patrick Leahy has been very focused on these 1.3 million mail-in ballots, right? | ||
| Which is the It's one of the hearts of the problem. | ||
| You've got three vectors down there. | ||
| Number one, you've got the 100,000 to 140,000 just illegal ballots, illegal votes. | ||
| Whether it's for residency, whether it's for their dead, whether it's for their underage, whether it's for their felons, whether it's a post office box or a federal building. | ||
| You know, Smith, the lead lawyer for the President, has captured I think it's 100,000 to 140,000 illegal ballots, okay? | ||
| The other vectors down in Ware County, where you broke the story, where they clearly caught the Dominion system has got an algorithm problem, or it's a calculator, not a tabulator. | ||
| There's something going on in Ware County, Georgia. | ||
| The guys down there caught it. | ||
| Right? | ||
| So you've got that, but still the most important thing, and what's going to change January 5th, unless we get on top of it, is this situation with the mail-in ballots. | ||
| And this is what Paxson and the state of Texas is now suing because of places like Wisconsin and places like Michigan and Pennsylvania and Georgia. | ||
| Change state law, right? | ||
| Without doing it the correct way, without having the state legislatures do it, they cut these side deals. | ||
| So, explain what you guys did and what Fulton County got in the grill of the deplorables with a full-out heckle. | ||
| Walk through what Fulton County is doing on these ballots. | ||
| Chain of custody. | ||
| Steve, it's really incredible. | ||
| We started GeorgiaStarNews.com. | ||
| Go to GeorgiaStarNews.com. | ||
| Michael Patrick Leahy, my partner in this venture, and I started it exactly three weeks ago. | ||
| I came down here and we decided, wow, there's nothing here but the kingpin of fake news, AJC. | ||
| There's Eric Erickson on the radio, who was the Never Trump or Clown Show. | ||
| There's nothing here. | ||
| WSB, totally left-wing. | ||
| So we decided to start this. | ||
| We hired three people, we got it up and running in two weeks, and we have delivered More factual news in a week and a half than anybody else here. | ||
| What we did with this story is we went through the chain of custody. | ||
| There is a law with these drop boxes that says when you pick the drop boxes up, you have to sign for them. | ||
| Who signed, what time they got picked up, how many were in there, who delivered it. | ||
| There's a whole series of paperwork that has to go with it because these are live ballots. | ||
| Well, Fulton County, we FOIA'd for the legal petitions required to count the votes in the drop boxes, right? | ||
| We FOIA'd them two weeks ago, a week and a half ago. | ||
| They finally came back yesterday and said, sure, we'll give you those January 19th at midnight or something, just before Biden's inaugurated. | ||
| That was an in-your-face, screw you, we don't know you crap, we're gonna do what we want, we're gonna give it to you the night before Ostensibly, Biden gets inaugurated. | ||
| I mean, this is the level of transparency you've got in Fulton County. | ||
| We got the same runaround in DeKalb. | ||
| There's no chain of custody with these mail-in ballot, with these drop boxes. | ||
| Now, what's happened going to January 5th, my people are just outraged in Georgia that they're going to steal it again. | ||
| They've added another 20 drop boxes, Raffensperger expanded the program. | ||
| They can't even manage what they have, and he basically added another 20 precincts. | ||
| And our argument with these drop boxes from the beginning, anybody halfway logical, if you got the ballot in the mail. | ||
| And you fill it out. | ||
| Why can't you simply put it back in the mailbox from whence it came? | ||
| Why do you need a Dropbox? | ||
|
unidentified
|
For what purpose? | |
| It doesn't have anything to do with COVID! | ||
| It's your own mailbox! | ||
| You got the ballot from the mailbox, fill it out, put it back in the mailbox. | ||
| How easy is that? | ||
| You know what? | ||
| It's because they're able to cheat. | ||
| That's why these Dropboxes are so critical. | ||
| That's why they got the money from Facebook in order to do this. | ||
| Go ahead, Steve. | ||
| No, but this is the point. | ||
| Look, Stacey Abrams, forget what you think about her politics. | ||
| She's a honey badger. | ||
| She's brilliant. | ||
| She is coming, and she's relentless. | ||
| This is what I admire about her. | ||
| I've said this ever since she first came on the scene. | ||
| She's relentless. | ||
| She raised the money down there, specifically focusing on this. | ||
| What you're reporting in Fulton County, which is Atlanta and DeKalb, is saying they know there's no accountability. | ||
| And this is where Lou Dobbs gets triggered. | ||
| You have a Republican-controlled legislature, and you have a Republican administration. | ||
| And there's no accountability. | ||
| In fact, they know they can heckle you and say, hey, yeah, on the chain of custody, we'll get back to you. | ||
| How does midnight on the 19th of January sound? | ||
| Why don't you guys suck on that? | ||
| No, because, listen, this is the power of your reporting. | ||
| You're showing that they have no respect for the Republican administration down there. | ||
| They have no respect for the assembly. | ||
| They know they're feckless. | ||
| They know they're weak. | ||
| They know they're cowardly. | ||
| John, please hold on. | ||
| I want to get to the part about the cowardly part, and we'll get back after this break, since this is the day of infamy speech of FDR in front of Congress, joint session of Congress. | ||
| Short commercial break. | ||
| We'll return to Georgia, the center of all of this, with John Fredericks in a moment on The War Room. | ||

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. Bannon. | ||
| Courage is contagious. | ||
| And I want to thank all of our listeners, all of our viewers, everybody in the community of Hashtag War Room Pandemic or the live stream. | ||
| I want to tip my hat and thank the state of Texas for stepping up here and throwing down hard. | ||
| They're calling this out. | ||
| This is outrageous what went on, and they're doing it from a constitutional basis. | ||
| So you've got two major vectors here. | ||
| You've got people coming up with the receipts about how they stole this, the mathematical anomalies, and then connected to actually how they got it done in state after state, whether it's Boris Epstein, Brian Kennedy, Reince Priebus and the guys out in Wisconsin with Spindle and Knutson, the election commissions. | ||
| You've got people in Pennsylvania. | ||
| But the biggest and nastiest fight of them all is in Georgia. | ||
| We're going to turn now to John Ferguson. | ||
| John, I want you to share, since you've been doing such an extraordinary job, you've actually decamped, left your family, moved your headquarters, everything down there, you're fighting from the saddle. | ||
| I want you to go through One of your viewers or somebody told you about these state representatives. | ||
| President Trump, actually, you're down there in Athens where the Senate's meeting at this conference trying to get enough signatures on this resolution actually called their own special session since the governor's too gutless. | ||
| But the House, you need 91 votes, the House was just going to say, nah, we're not interested. | ||
| The President of the United States called, I guess, the Speaker And the President Pro Tem of the House had a conversation with them, and now they've got old-time religion. | ||
| But you had, I think, a viewer that said, hey, they've talked to some of these guys in the House, and they're afraid. | ||
| They're afraid that they're going to be docked. | ||
| So explain to our audience the fear that some of these members in the Georgia House have. | ||
| It's really incredible. | ||
| The President taking the bull by the horns as always. | ||
| Action, action, action, getting something done. | ||
| Understanding they were nowhere near getting 91 votes in the House in order to have the special session. | ||
| They were not even near that. | ||
| And part of the problem is House leadership wanted no part of a special session. | ||
| Both Speaker Ralston and Speaker Pro Tem Jan Jones, who was on my show a couple of weeks ago, said she thought that was a waste of time. | ||
| So there was no special session going to happen. | ||
| So the president picked up the phone, he got a hold of Speaker Ralston with the Speaker Pro Tem there looped in and implored them to go forward with a special session. | ||
| So he was on the phone with them for 15 minutes. | ||
| So now they're trying to round up. | ||
| They have 106 Republicans. | ||
| They need 91 of 106 and the state Senate needs 29 of 34 Republicans. | ||
| So all they need is Republicans and they don't even have to get all of them in order to get a special session around the election only. | ||
| Well, they can't get there. | ||
| So what happened today is one of my callers, get this, from Idaho had a conversation last night with young Representative Colton Moore, represents the 1st District of Georgia, 27 years old. | ||
| And he asked him how the whip was going to get the 91. | ||
| And a parent from our caller Colton Moore said, uh, they're never going to get there. | ||
| And he said, the problem is I'm talking to some of the veteran Legislators, and they're afraid to put their name on this petition because they don't want to be doxxed. | ||
| They don't want their families to be harassed. | ||
| They don't want anybody going to their house, keying their car. | ||
| They don't want any of that happening. | ||
| They also said, look, if we have a special session and we revoke the electors for Biden, Antifa is going to come, BLM is going to come, and Atlanta is going to burn down and they're going to blame us. | ||
| So we just don't want to deal with this. | ||
| We just need to go forward as it is, elect these two senators and everything will be fine. | ||
| I mean, so now you've got legislators intimidated by mobs in Antifa and doxxing and people coming to their home and not doing their jobs and doing the right thing. | ||
| That's what Georgia's come to now. | ||
| The thing is, this is all getting exposed. | ||
| And people are calling them out because finally we've got some kind of a media presence here. | ||
| So they're getting called out. | ||
| Yesterday there was a rally that Senator Perdue had in Jasper. | ||
| I had one of my callers today that went to the rally and he said, Senator Perdue, he asked them, point blank, why don't you demand a special session? | ||
| Why don't you fight for Trump? | ||
| And he said, Perdue looked him in the eye and said, well, um, I'm really trying to do that, but you know, the media doesn't get out my message. | ||
| And he's like, well, no, I was at the rally in Valdosta. | ||
| All you had to do was grab the microphone and demand a special session. | ||
| He says, well, um, you know, that's really not my place to do that. | ||
| I'm just focused on my race. | ||
| And then he was on Newsmax. | ||
| And he blamed Trump voters and said, well, they're mad because their guy got beat. | ||
| I mean, I mean, Senator Perdue, you're tone deaf. | ||
| So hang on, hang on, hang on. | ||
| I just, I just want to, when I saw that, I want to be very clear. | ||
| The Trump voters and the Trump followers and the Trump movement are not mad because Donald Trump lost. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Donald Trump didn't lose. | ||
| What they're mad about is that this is trying to be stolen by a combination of bad actors. | ||
| And they're mad because they see what's happening to their country. | ||
| These are people, patriots, who believe in the Constitution. | ||
| Many of them are veterans. | ||
| They have served all throughout the world to defend that Constitution and to bring freedom to people throughout the world. | ||
| They're not mad. | ||
| I cannot believe his staff has to start getting focused and he's got to get focused. | ||
| If that's what he believes, he will lose on January 5th. | ||
| We have the solution for victory on January 5th. | ||
| I'll tell you what, in Denver, I want to tee it up and play it. | ||
| John Fredericks, I want you to listen to this. | ||
| It's been one of the most important inflection points that's happened in the last couple of weeks in this entire effort to make sure this is not stolen. | ||
| Can Denver, can we tee up what I want to play from the rally the other night? | ||
| Just go ahead and play it. | ||
| John, you'll remember this. | ||
| Okay, we're going to go ahead and let it roll. | ||
|

|
Fight for Trump! Fight for Trump! Fight for Trump! | |
| Fight for Trump! Fight for Trump! | ||
| Fight for Trump! | ||
| That was not planned. | ||
| That was spontaneous combustion. | ||
| That is Patriots with Donald Trump on the stage and Kelly Loeffler and Perdue came up in an hour and a half rally. | ||
| That wasn't even a Trump function. | ||
| I think it was an RNC function with Trump as a guest. | ||
| They were up there for 90 seconds and the crowd exploded. | ||
| And it wasn't, hey, Purdue and Lafleur, January 5th, it's fight for Trump. | ||
| If you fight today, if you have a special session today, January 5th is going to take care of itself. | ||
| Fundamentally, part of the special session is just not to get to the bottom of the cheating, it's to get their arms around this consent decree and make sure that Stacey Abrams, the Honey Badger of Georgia, does not roll you again on January 5th. | ||
| John, this is what is so extraordinary. | ||
| Don't these cowardly politicians that are saying, oh I don't want my name out there, don't they understand that the Trump supporters are not going to just let this go? | ||
| That they are fighting for their country? | ||
| They're not mad because Donald Trump lost. | ||
| He won! | ||
| They're mad because the Republican apparatus in the state of Texas just called him out! | ||
| The Attorney General of the state of Texas just called out these cowards with this tremendous lawsuit that's going to go to the Supreme Court. | ||
| What don't the elected official in Georgia get? | ||
| Why are they so cowardly, John Fredericks? | ||
| Well, they thought that this was the party of Mitt Romney, John McCain, and the Bushes. | ||
| And they thought, look, it'll just go away. | ||
| We'll just fight. | ||
| We'll just tell them we'll fight for them in January in this special session. | ||
| There's some other hill to die on. | ||
| It'll all go away. | ||
| Everything will be fine. | ||
| We'll stay in office. | ||
| Look, we gained a couple seats in the House. | ||
| Life is good for us. | ||
| They don't understand the Trump voter. | ||
| What the Trump voter, what the deplorables are saying now is, we have the power, not you. | ||
| You stole it from us once, we're not going to sit idly by like morons and have it stolen from us again because we know what's going to happen. | ||
| We're going to go to bed at midnight with a 300,000 vote lead and say, wow, we saved the Senate. | ||
| We're going to get up Losing. | ||
| They know the same thing is going to happen. | ||
| They've added drop boxes. | ||
| There is no chain of custody. | ||
| The same people are going to be voting by mail. | ||
| There is no signature check. | ||
| The same 150,000 people that shouldn't vote are going to be voting again. | ||
| Everything is the same. | ||
| So they're saying if you don't fix it now, you don't have a country, forget the Senate. | ||
| Fix it now. | ||
| Fight for us. | ||
| Because our votes don't matter. | ||
| Evidently, by what you're doing. | ||
| And so, the fact that... I just want people to grasp this. | ||
| There's 34 Republican Senators in Georgia. | ||
| 34. | ||
| They need to get 29 signatures to go forward with a special session specifically around the election. | ||
| 29 to 34 Republicans. | ||
| Right now, they're not there. | ||
| And it's 10-15. | ||
| They need 91 out of 106 Republicans. | ||
| They're not even close. | ||
| Ask yourself, those that don't sign the petition, how are they going to look their constituents in the eye and what are they going to say? | ||
| Here's what they're saying. | ||
| They should be recalled. | ||
| Well, it's going to cost a million dollars. | ||
| It should be recalled. | ||
| We don't have time. | ||
| They said, we don't have time. | ||
| It's in the middle of an election. | ||
| Here's what Senator Brandon Beach said. | ||
| I call him hashtag Beach Balls. | ||
| He says, OK, I'll fix that. | ||
| The governor can move the runoff to February 1st. | ||
| He's got the power. | ||
| He's already moved two primers. | ||
| John, we've got to bounce. | ||
| We're going to get all your social media up. | ||
| People have got to listen to John Frederick's radio show. | ||
| He's live from Georgia every morning reporting on this. | ||
| Amazing. | ||
| And amazing stuff you're doing with the Georgia star, Ewan Leahy. | ||
| Just incredible. | ||
| Thank you so much for being on today. | ||
| Real patriot. | ||
| Courage is the most important of all the virtues. | ||
| Because it's upon courage that all the other virtues rest. | ||
| Winston Churchill, we'll be back with FDR, Pearl Harbor. | ||

War Room, Pandemic, with Stephen K. Bannon. | |
| The epidemic is a demon, and we cannot let this demon hide. | ||
| War Room, Pandemic. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Vice President, Mr. Speaker, Members of the Senate, of the House of Representatives, yesterday, December 7th, 1941, a date which will live in infamy. | ||
| The United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan. | ||
| The United States was at peace with that nation, and at solicitation of Japan, still in conversation with its government and its Emperor, looking toward the maintenance of peace in the Pacific. | ||
| Indeed, One hour after Japanese air squadrons had commenced bombing in the American island of Oahu, the Japanese ambassador to the United States and his colleague delivered to our Secretary of State a formal reply to a recent American message. | ||
| And while this reply stated that it seemed useless to continue the existing diplomatic negotiations, it contained no threat or hint of war or of armed attack. | ||
| It will be recorded that the distance of Hawaii from Japan makes it obvious that the attack was deliberately planned many days or even weeks ago. | ||
| During the intervening time, the Japanese government has deliberately sought to deceive the United States by false statements and expressions of hope for continued peace. | ||
| The attack yesterday on the Hawaiian Islands has caused severe damage to American naval and military forces. | ||
| I regret to tell you that very many American lives have been lost. | ||
| In addition, American ships have been reported torpedoed on the high seas between San Francisco and Hawaii. | ||
| That is FDR, and that is his address to the Joint Houses of Congress today, 79 years ago. | ||
| It's the day of infamy speech, talking about December 7th. | ||
| We lost 2,400 men on the attack on Pearl Harbor, and I think 1,100 casualties. | ||
| Make it one of the bloodiest days in American history, along with the Battle of Antietam in the Civil War in 9-11. | ||
| I would also observe that we are losing essentially, because of the CCP virus, the same amount of people every day by this virus that came from the Wuhan lab. | ||
| And just as Texas called out all the cowardly And incompetent state legislatures in these key states for not fulfilling their obligations. | ||
| So this speech comes down through history and calls us out. | ||
| You're starting to see it. | ||
| We've been on this for years. | ||
| Been on this since the first day of, started with the campaign back in August of 2016. | ||
| And really revved it up on the day after we won. | ||
| That the Chinese Communist Party is the enemy of all mankind. | ||
| It's particularly the enemy of the Chinese people. | ||
| And it's an existential threat to the defender of freedom in this world, the United States of America. | ||
| And what it's done in its infiltration, its money, its influence peddling, is almost beyond comprehension. | ||
| I want to bring in now my colleague and co-host on War Room, Raheem Kassam. | ||
| Raheem, this speech resonated so much, obviously the rhetoric is amazing. | ||
| How did it play, I know you're a Churchill, I would almost say scholar, but how did this play in Great Britain that day? | ||
| Well, people were wondering, Steve, where the declaration of war on Germany was. | ||
| That was obviously, as we spoke about yesterday, when Churchill was with the U.S. | ||
| Ambassador at Chequers, hearing the news of the attack on Pearl Harbor, had kind of said, look, this is obviously a terrible thing, but He would rest easy that night knowing that the new world would be dragged into the war and therefore could come to the rescue of the old. | ||
| The attack, the declaration on war on Japan was obviously first in Roosevelt's mind, but of course the rest of the Allies wanted to see where the war would go. | ||
| As far as they were concerned, what was the most important part of it was Germany. | ||
| Now obviously that came a few days afterwards off germany and it's made declared war on the united states first uh... but there was a there was a period of time there were people sort of scrambling and worrying uh... the u s wouldn't come in full help uh... instead were they only look after its own its own situation the pacific don't you find it interesting or get to this texas situation also the polling because the police are in a shift i think pretty dramatically | ||
| that people even with suppression of the mainstream media that calls all these charges baseless that everyday the more information comes out you know american certainly going something's not right with this This did not go down. | ||
| You know, I realized it was odd when I went to bed that night, but as I see these Trump people, as I see the Trump campaign, as I see other just citizens coming forward and putting it forward, there's just more and more information in every type of vertical. | ||
| Illegal people who should not have been able to vote, voting. | ||
| No control whatsoever, no chain of custody on this mail-in balloting. | ||
| Now this all looks like a scam. | ||
| And also you got this Dominion Systems situation, which people are starting to drill down on. | ||
| But this is about accountability. | ||
| This is about duty. | ||
| At the end of the day, this is about courage. | ||
| This is about courage. | ||
| It's not easy to do this. | ||
| It's much easier just to go along with the flow and say, OK, you know, as Perdue said, oh, the Trump people are just mad because their guy lost. | ||
| No, we are, Senator, please, we are not. | ||
| And you're a good man and you're a smart man. | ||
| We are not mad because Donald Trump lost. | ||
| I have not met one person That's working on this 24 hours a day or one of the deplorables that are out there as you go state to state or if you talk to people. | ||
| I don't know one person that's mad because Trump lost. | ||
| In their belief, in their knowledge, in what they know for a fact, is Trump won. | ||
| What they're mad about is that this thing has been stolen. | ||
| And it's been stolen with, quite frankly, the concurrence of the apparatus of the party that Trump is the head of. | ||
| Because right now it's not fighting back. | ||
| You know, President Trump just tweeted a few minutes ago here about the Speaker of the House of Pennsylvania, who pun it. | ||
| Would not call a special session, let the legislature go, and punted to say, oh, the congressional delegation should object to the seating of the electors. | ||
| So this is what I think is so important of what Texas has just done. | ||
| Right? | ||
| What Texas just did, and Rahim, I know you've had a chance to go through this and talk to some experts in getting ready for the show. | ||
| Texas basically put the spotlight where it should be on the state legislatures, and they're not arguing right now the details of the criminality. | ||
| They don't need to show the receipts. | ||
| That's being done through other court cases, and it's coming through asking for special sessions. | ||
| But I want you to go through and highlight How powerful and how important this lawsuit is by the state, by Ken Paxson, the Attorney General in the state of Texas? | ||
| Yeah, Steve, I mean this was no small Uh, thing here, and I've had a chance this morning to go through the, uh, the first parts of this. | ||
| I'm actually pulling out the most important parts of this. | ||
| We'll have a, we have the breaking news story up on the national pulse, but we're going to have a more detailed one, uh, later. | ||
| And it is because there's just so much, and there's so much substance in here, uh, the bears going through. | ||
| So I want to start off just by, uh, going, I mean, pay even just page three in the, in the motion to file. | ||
| Right. | ||
| So let's, let's look at what, uh, the state of Texas is alleging here. | ||
| Quote, As set forth in the accompanying brief and complaint, the 2020 election suffered from significant and unconstitutional irregularities in the defendant's states. | ||
| Non-legislative actors purported amends to states' duly enacted election laws in violation of the Electors' Clause vesting state legislatures with plenary authority regarding the appointment of presidential electors. | ||
| translation, bureaucrats made up rules and those rules are not constitutional. It goes on to talk about the unconstitutional relaxation of ballot integrity protections in those states election laws and it quotes taken together. These flaws affect an outcome determinative numbers of popular votes in a group of states that cost outcome determinative numbers on electoral votes, the court should grant leave to file the | ||
| complaint, and ultimately, enjoying the use of unlawful election results without review and ratification by the defendant state legislators and remand to defendant states respective legislators to appoint presidential electors in a manner consistent with the electors clause pursuant to three Code Section 2. | ||
| That is just the opening gambit. | ||
| And it goes on and the bill of complaint continues. | ||
| And it continues in some detail as well. | ||
| It talks about the deadline. | ||
| We heard about the deadline from the Amistad Project and Phil Klein and the Thomas More Society. | ||
| Ken Paxton writes in this quote, that deadline, however, should not cement a potentially illegitimate election result in the middle of this storm, a storm that is of the defendant state's own making by virtue of their own unconstitutional actions, end quote. | ||
| And then it goes on to talk about the nature of the action, the plaintiff state challenging defendant state's administrations, Article Two, Section One, Clause Two, the Electors Clause, and indeed, under the 14th Amendment of the US Constitution. | ||
| Constitution, talking about the plaintiff state alleging that each of the defendant states flagrantly violated, quote, flagrantly violated constitutional rules governing the appointment of presidential electors. | ||
| I mean, I can go on, Steve, but this is very, very substantive. | ||
| Here's what I like about it. | ||
| They talk about the storm that's been created because of their extra-constitutional actions and incompetence, and essentially malfeasance. | ||
| This is what's so brilliant about what Paxton's done, and I gotta tell you, once again, to all of our audience that are from the state of Texas, Good on ya, and please send our high thanks to your state representatives and particularly the Attorney General, Paxson, for going forward with this. | ||
| In addition, every deplorable and every American citizen throughout the country owes a great debt of thanks and gratitude to Texas for stepping up here. | ||
| And to actually start to call it out, saying, why are we going through these, why do we have these deadlines? | ||
| When we're talking about the most sacred thing that democracy has, the sanctity of an honest vote. | ||
| And how this was set up by the framers, and now it's being totally tossed out when you've got these state legislators to cut these side deals. | ||
| Rahim, hang on, I know we've got more to talk about here, and your assessment of polling and how this is shifting. | ||
| And I happen to think this lawsuit is going to help even drive it more, because more people are now going to get engaged in actually looking at what went down here. | ||
| Raheem Kassam, Stephen K. Bannon, you're in the War Room. | ||
| We're going to take a short commercial break. | ||
| We'll return with Raheem Kassam. | ||
| We're going to talk about some of the polling. | ||
| We're also going to talk about the impact that this lawsuit from the state of Texas is going to have. | ||
| All next. | ||

| We're being joined by some of the whistleblowers here in Michigan and also one of the attorneys that has filed some of the lawsuit stuff that's going on here in Michigan, and we are just so fired up. | ||
| Look, these rallies just keep getting bigger and bigger each stop that we go to, that it is just so overwhelming. | ||
| And then later this evening, we're gonna be in Detroit in Macomb County at 5 p.m. | ||
| So we hope that everybody comes out because we have built so much momentum now that we're rolling on the road and we've added the second bus, like I said yesterday, and we are just so excited to be heading towards D.C. on the 12th. | ||
| These people are amazing. | ||
| They're caravaning with us. | ||
| They are, I mean, just the salt of the earth. | ||
| The best people that we're working with everywhere across the country. | ||

| Thank you so much, Kylie. | ||
|

|
Thanks, Steve. | |
| Okay, I want to turn now back to Rahim Kassam. | ||
| Rahim, the state of Texas here, as it often does in our country's history, has stood up. | ||
| So, walk us through again why this lawsuit is so important, and why is it so important on today, which is Safe Harbor Day? | ||
| So let me reset on this for people who are just joining us, who maybe haven't followed this. | ||
| As it was released in full overnight, the state of Texas filing a lawsuit, a mega lawsuit, against Pennsylvania, Georgia, Michigan, and Wisconsin. | ||
| and Ken Paxton, the Attorney General of Texas, Brent Webster, First Assistant Attorney, Lawrence Joseph, Special Counsel, the Attorney General of Texas, all named on this suit. | ||
| And it walks through the details of why the state of Texas believes that its fellow states are not abiding, and the other commonwealths are not abiding the rules as per the Constitution, and why the votes should be not counted effectively. | ||
| So we walked through in the last segment and I've got the whole story and everything is embedded if you're on the live chat. | ||
| It's actually a pinned post at the top if people want to go and read it for themselves. | ||
| But I wanted to bring your attention to something I didn't get to cover in the last segment really quickly. | ||
| Talking about, okay, I just want to quote here. | ||
| Each of defendant states acted in a common pattern. | ||
| That's very important, a common pattern. | ||
| I'll keep going. | ||
| Quote, state officials, sometimes through pending litigation, e.g. | ||
| settling friendly suits, and sometimes unilaterally by executive fiat, announced new rules for the conduct of the 2020 election that were inconsistent with existing state statutes defining what constitutes a lawful vote. | ||
| goes on and says, quote, by waiving, lowering, and otherwise failing to follow the state's statutory requirements for signature validation and other processes for ballot security, the entire body of such ballots is now constitutionally suspect and may not legitimately be used to determine allocation of the defendant state's presidential electors, end quote. | ||
| Now I understand that that is effectively what we have been saying here for a very long time, but that is succinct. | ||
| It's to the point. | ||
| It's on the all-important Safe Harbor Day, and the fundamental point is it's in a lawsuit filed to the Supreme Court. | ||
| Rahim, I'd ask you, I want you to stay over just briefly at the beginning of the next hour because I want to talk to you about some of this polling and directionally and your thoughts on, because I know the left's already melting down and dismissing this thing in Texas as grandstanding, how important this is going to be in also driving awareness of Of what's going on here, both constitutionally and also with the outright theft around this election. | ||
| So I'd ask you to stay on for a few minutes. | ||
| I want to get to some of the polling. | ||
| It's interesting. | ||
| I think we're pollings coming our way. | ||
| Remember, the watchword here is hold the line. | ||
| The watchword here is hold the line. | ||
| So if you hold the line, Good things are going to happen. | ||
| If you hold the line and demand justice and demand truth, good things are going to happen. | ||
| All of a sudden the state of Texas is going to have time to do its work and then come forward on Safe Harbor Day and essentially tell you what they think of Safe Harbor. | ||
| Hey, this is not meaningful. | ||
| We have bigger issues we've got to get back of about this republic. | ||
| Okay, Stephen K. Bannon, Raheem Kassam is going to join us on the other side of the break. | ||
| We're also going to have Jack Posobiec, Jason Jones is going to join us, Jesse Morgan, the heroic truck driver. | ||
| We've got so much to cram in the next hour. | ||
| We're going to go around and give an update of what's happening in each state. | ||
| We're going to take a short commercial break, reset. | ||
| We're going to be back with Raheem Kassam, Jack Posobiec, Jason Jones, Jesse Morgan, and others all next hour on War Room Pandemic. |
