Well the virus has now killed more than 100 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.
Which 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.
rudy giuliani
We have to prepare for the worst, always, because if you don't and the worst happens, To me, Georgia stands out in a way, and will always stand out in posterity with regard to this election, because you have the
You have the thing that's going to live after this election no matter what, and that is the videotape that proves that anyone who says that fraud is debunked or there is no fraud is just plain blind or lying.
You have live from Atlanta, you've got voter fraud right in front of people's eyes.
Blatant, clear, obvious, You have to be a fool to ignore it or worse.
steve bannon
Welcome, you're live from the nation's capital, that is America's Mayor Rudy Giuliani.
You're in the War Room.
It is Friday, the 11th of December, the Year of Our Lord 2020, one of the most important political weekends in American history.
Modern American history is now upon us.
John Frederick's Radio Network, right here, John Frederick's Radio Network, Real America's Voice.
I want to thank everybody in Denver that co-produces the show, does such a fantastic job.
Also, GNews, GTV, Rumble, every distribution platform, YouTube, Facebook, all of it.
Okay, we're going to get to it.
We've got a packed show.
Steve Cortez, Phil Kline, Bernie Kerrick, John Frederick, Liz Yor, Raheem Kassam, Jack Maxey.
We're talking every topic out there this weekend on the legal side, on the investigative side, on the Supreme Court.
And particularly the CCP and particularly Bill Barr and what's happening with the Justice Department.
Maggie Vandenberg is my wingman here in studio today.
She's going to do a lot of prep work.
We're going to have Kylie Cramer on about this massive march for Trump that will take place tomorrow.
Maggie will be updating us during the show.
I want to go now To America's mayor, one of the great heroes, not just in this country, but throughout the world.
He's a hero to not just the deplorables, but to Lao Bai Jing, old hundred names in China, as an individual that is fearless, relentless, a pure honey badger.
Mayor, first off, everybody in our audience wants to know, talk to us about your health.
We can't lose Rudy Giuliani.
So tell us, tell us, tell us.
I know you've got great medical care nearby, but tell us about...
rudy giuliani
I came down with it on Saturday or Sunday and I went to the hospital because I was having a little difficulty breathing and I wouldn't have gone but the combination of Maria and my son Andrew and Dr. Conley, who is the president's doctor, they all forced me to go because they said I had to have a test of my breath.
My breath was short.
I was short of breath.
And it turned out I had pneumonia.
Didn't know I had pneumonia.
I didn't have the symptoms.
And it was fairly serious, not terrible, terrible, but not moderate.
But within three days, they got me all better.
They put me immediately on Remdesivir.
They gave me a steroid.
By the next day, I was feeling better.
Then I took the Regeneron.
That was a miracle drug.
And by yesterday I was released.
I'd say I'm 100% now.
And pretty much free of the virus.
I have to wait until Sunday to be absolutely sure.
The doctor is pretty certain that I'm free of it right now.
So I'm feeling good.
Almost normal.
steve bannon
Well, I tell you, you've had prayers.
I've never seen anything like it.
People were saying rosaries.
People were saying novenas.
Prayer groups were meeting.
People in China reached out to me.
rudy giuliani
Wasn't that so nice?
steve bannon
The whistleblower movement, the new federal state.
It was an outpouring of affection and deep admiration for the work you're doing, and thank God.
Providentially, we had Dr. Ryan on the scene, or you would have gotten much worse.
I want to thank everything that turned up there.
rudy giuliani
Oh, she was terrific.
My son Andrew stayed with me.
72 hours.
He stayed in the hospital with me and he got all my work done.
So I was able to keep up with a lot of the work.
steve bannon
But here's the thing that's amazing.
You didn't miss a beat.
I mean, so much action took place over those couple of days.
Quite frankly, you came on the show Saturday morning, our show Saturday morning, and Merritt, no offense, you didn't look any worse than usual for the wear.
And you were fabulous on Maria Bartiroma.
Okay, so Mayor, let's pull the camera back.
You made a statement, the reason we want to start with the cold open of you and Georgia, you made a very, I think, powerful statement that people that deny this are either blind or they're lying about the voter fraud that went on and the election fraud that went on.
Now we're before, you know, the Supreme Court now has the arguments from Texas, what, 17 or 18 amicus briefs.
I think a couple people have jumped in as Into that lawsuit also, right?
You've got President Trump has intervened with John Eastman, and we know Eastman was working for many, many weeks on this.
You guys were thinking this through.
The counter arguments came back.
Essentially, every state in the Union looks like it's now.
We're going to put a map up later.
You got the map that shows that basically the states are divided on this.
You've got, I think, 18, 19, I think Idaho came in last night, 19 states supporting Texas, a bunch, I think 14 states came in supporting Pennsylvania and Michigan and Wisconsin and Georgia.
Where do you think we stand?
Well, first off, where do you believe we actually stand with the Supreme Court actually taking this up and starting to review this this weekend?
Where do you think we stand with this whole thing?
rudy giuliani
This is a very, very novel case.
There's no lawyer that can give you a definitive opinion on whether it's going to be taken or not, or how it's going to be decided.
We've had states suing each other.
When I was mayor, actually, New Jersey sued New York for part of Ellis Island.
It was kind of a fun case.
We split it in half.
But we've never had a lawsuit like this over the unfairness of an election, how one group of states Treated another group of states unfairly in the unequal and illegal practices they've conducted during the election.
So let's start off with the fact that it did happen.
I mean, the myth that there was no fraud is a myth.
There was fraud.
And the reason I point that out with the tape is you just can't avoid the tape in Atlanta, Georgia.
It goes on for eight hours.
It shows that they surreptitiously closed down the center.
They got rid of all the observers.
They made sure all the doors were locked.
And then they started taking ballots out.
They were scurrying around like mice, actually, taking ballots out from under cardboard and under desks and running around to various remote locations to count them.
And doing it quickly and swiftly so nobody would see it.
It was clearly an illegal operation.
And when you look at the numbers counted during that operation, here's the other thing about it.
We can go check, you know, the calculations.
Just during that operation alone, that one video, they stole an election.
There were enough votes stolen during that period of time to change the results in Georgia.
Georgia was won by By Biden, by about 10 or 11,000 folks during that period of time.
steve bannon
But Mayor, here's why people's heads are blown up.
If that's so definitive, and look, you were a prosecutor, you ran the Southern District of New York back in the days when it was run properly.
You know, you put the mob away, you put the Wall Street Mafia away with Milken.
You're one of the most renowned prosecutors in the history of the country.
If what you say is fact, and Rudy Giuliani is sitting there going, hey, this is a fact now, you can see it right there for eight hours, I can show you for eight hours.
Why is the Republican, last time I looked, there are not a bunch of progressive crazies in Georgia.
You have a Republican Secretary of State, you have a Republican Attorney General, you have a Republican Lieutenant Governor, and you have a Republican Governor.
If it's so obvious and so evident, and you're saying you're either blind or you're lying, why are people called Republicans your biggest foe?
The biggest foes you have in Georgia are not Stacey Abrams.
That's second tier, second order foe.
Your biggest foe is the administration in Georgia and quite frankly a lot of these not terribly brave people in the House of Representatives and the State Senate.
rudy giuliani
It's a source of great amazement to me, Steve.
I have no idea what's going on with them.
I don't know if I can attribute it to stubbornness, personal anger at President Trump, anti-Trumpism, corruption.
Dominion is a very corrupt company.
They buy a lot of people.
There's so many possibilities.
There's no good reason for it, Steve.
No good reason for it.
steve bannon
Do you think part of it is because it's a consent decree that they never thought would come public and now that it's exposed and everything that you guys are showing on at least the mail-in fraud and about the signatures exposed them?
Because they've never stepped forward and actually explained the consent decree.
This isn't something that you guys have gone in great depth on, but they've never wanted to talk about it.
Is it because of that?
rudy giuliani
No, I think the consent decree is also part of the whatever problem they have.
I don't think if they were straight thinking, normal Republicans, they would have entered the consent decree.
I think the consent decree was a sellout to the Democrats.
And I think this is just a further sellout to the Democrats.
Now exactly what the game is, I'm sorry, Steve, I don't know.
But you know, it baffles me, like it baffles me how they covered up the Hunter Biden thing all during the election and now all of a sudden it's coming out.
How could that have been covered up?
steve bannon
Well, let's talk about that.
You were the driver and back of the hard drive from hell.
The thing that put this on starting October 14th, as you know, the work we had to do to work with people to make sure that technologically they knew that this was not Russian disinformation.
That's all a lie, right?
And Barr let this happen.
How did Bill Barr The Attorney General of the United States suppressed the information that would have changed the election to know that this is not about Hunter Biden.
This is about the Biden family, including Joe Biden, being compromised by the Chinese Communist Party, being in business with his brother being the brains of the operation that you identified forever.
Now we get to think that the Western District of Pennsylvania, where, correct me if I'm wrong, I think that's where Rudy Giuliani schlepped up to with a former U.S.
prosecutor from North Carolina and made a, I don't know, five-hour, six-hour presentation.
I've seen the presentation.
It's two feet thick about the crime family of the Biden crime family.
Well, how did this get suppressed?
rudy giuliani
That was done in January of this year.
January of this year, we went to Pittsburgh.
We've got a wonderfully warm reception from the U.S.
Attorney, his staff in the U.S.
Attorney's Office.
We thought we were going to have a one hour meeting.
We had something like a four hour meeting.
They were extremely inquisitive.
They asked all the right questions and they were appropriately enthusiastic as prosecutors would be about what is a very, very numerous group of hot cases.
And then all of a sudden the wind came out of their sails and we never heard anything from them.
They interviewed one witness, rather insignificant introductory witness, They didn't interview some of the witnesses, one of whom was in jeopardy, who we tried very, very hard to get them to interview because she was truly in the fear of her life.
And they never made a single move that we knew of to corroborate what we were saying.
We weren't asking them to believe us.
We were asking them to interview these 50 or 60 witnesses, look at the tape recordings, look at the documents.
We had one document, Steve, that Documents a $14 million money laundering transaction.
Stone cold.
All you need is a document.
It shows you the three banks.
It shows you how it went through the banks.
Shows you how it was disguised as a loan.
It shows you how it ends up with the Biden family.
I was, you know, I was startled when I left.
And in fact, when I left with my lawyer, we were very, very excited.
We said, finally, after two years, somebody's taking us seriously.
You know, earlier this information had been brought to the Southern District, a year and a half earlier, and they sat on it and did nothing about it.
So everything we're looking at now, as he begins the presidency, all of this could have been done two and a half years ago.
steve bannon
By a Justice Department... Hang on, Mayor, I'm going to ask you to stay over.
unidentified
I'm going to ask you to stay over, please.
steve bannon
There is not going to be a Biden presidency because The votes were not legal, as we'll get into when we return with America's Mayor, the one, the only, Rudy Giuliani.
Honey Badger extraordinaire, next on War Room.

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.
joe scarborough
Uh, this just, uh, coming across, uh, the wire that, uh, Q Poll, uh, out, uh, says the majority of Americans believe the election was fair, but 77% of Republicans believe, uh, that there was widespread, uh, voter fraud.
Just seriously, I mean, it's just, it basically means 77% of Republicans are disconnected from reality and actually live in an alternative reality.
But that is what it is.
steve bannon
Welcome to the center of the alternative reality, and we're proud of it.
I want to tell our overlords at YouTube, yes, you're correct.
Technically, on the safe harbor, on the 8th, the official line of every state except for Wisconsin, I believe, I think Wisconsin is the thing, that they, basically at the safe harbor, approved the outcome of those elections, including in Georgia and in Arizona and in Pennsylvania and in And in Michigan, which had Republican legislators, so technically correct.
I also want to inform YouTube that the officials during the Vietnam War said we were winning for all those years.
In Afghanistan, they said we were winning for all those years.
Please check the Washington Post's Afghanistan report.
Please check the Pentagon Papers.
Please look at the Warren Commission.
The Warren Commission's a tissue of lies.
We know that now.
unidentified
Right?
steve bannon
But that's the official line.
So I want YouTube, I want all your Warren Commission stuff, everything about Vietnam, everything about Afghanistan, all the global stuff, please put up there the same things you put up with us.
And I got no problem saying that officially you're technically correct.
And that's what we're here to combat.
Officially they're lies and misrepresentations and just mistakes.
A lot of stuff in Vietnam and Afghanistan wasn't bad.
It was a mistake.
There were seven different commissions on Pearl Harbor.
And if you go back and look at those, five of those commissions were outright misrepresentations and misdirection plays.
Okay?
There was a disastrous, on the financial crisis of 2008, another disastrous thing.
It was a tissue of lies.
The official report of the financial crisis.
And this is why no bankers went to jail.
Right?
The guys at Lehman Brothers and Bear Stearns aren't in prison.
Right?
The 9-11 Commission.
One of the greatest American heroes of modern age, Rudy Giuliani.
My guest.
Why is he called America's Mayor?
Why did he become a world figure?
Because of 9-11.
And look at the 9-11 Commission report.
I don't have to talk to you about, what is it, 21 pages that are blank.
Why?
Because of Saudi Arabia.
Right?
And what the relationships and the contacts were there.
As we now know, that's a fiasco.
So yes, YouTube, you're technically correct.
But please go back on all of these.
Including the initial official government report on the Lincoln assassination.
We can go through a chapter and verse.
And no, I'm not a conspiracy theorist.
unidentified
At all.
steve bannon
I don't believe in conspiracy theories.
There are no conspiracies, but there are also no coincidences.
unidentified
Okay?
steve bannon
I want to bring in now America's Mayor.
Mayor, this is what I don't understand.
You're a guy that dedicated much of your life to the Justice Department.
To the rule of law, and the enforcement of law, and the defense of the law.
Bill Barr knew this information.
And by the way, if it was about Donald J. Trump, it'd have been leaked in a New York Second.
It'd have been Don Jr., or Eric Trump, or Ivanka, or any of his family.
It'd have been a blaring, you know, seven-point headline in the New York Times, followed up by literally weeks and weeks and weeks on Rachel Maddow.
But here, he consciously, if you read the Wall Street Journal and now you read the following The Washington Post, they consciously made a decision because of an election to suppress this information.
And this is not about Hunter Biden's tax returns.
This is about being compromised by the Chinese Communist Party.
Mayor Giuliani, you've seen the hard drive from hell.
People, you know, people come for the porn, but they stay for the compromise.
Right?
You've seen the hard drive from hell.
You've seen how this family's compromised.
And you said it.
You're the first guy that said it a long time ago.
This is a crime syndicate family.
And Rudy Giuliani knows something about crime syndicates.
He put the five families of the mafia away.
He broke the mafia in New York City that had never been broken.
Rudy Giuliani did that, using Rico.
He broke the mafia that ran Wall Street under Mike Milken and Ivan Boesky.
Right?
This guy's got a couple of notches on his gun belt.
So what do you say, sir?
Should Bill Barr, let me just cut to it, should Bill Barr be called over to the Oval Office today to explain himself?
And if he doesn't have a great explanation, he should be fired on the spot.
rudy giuliani
He should definitely be called over to explain it.
The Justice Department should explain that going way, way back to 2018, when they received information about Biden being involved in bribery and illegal activities in Ukraine.
I'm talking about Joseph Biden now.
And as well as Hillary Clinton and a number of other Democrats.
Rather than investigate it, they put it aside and decided to investigate Donald Trump instead.
They didn't have time to investigate.
And that just stayed there for two years, could have been investigated, could have been found out about a long time ago.
Now that you have the hard drive, you essentially have a racketeering case that's a tragedy, a tragedy for my country.
I don't think I've ever thought I'd live to see someone possibly going into the White House where I know, as a matter of My professional expertise and the evidence that I have available to me that he's prosecutable for numerous racketeering charges.
Over a course of 30 to 40 years, the family took millions of dollars.
And there's an admission of it by the son in which the son explains in a summary that he paid 50% of that money to his father.
Even with all the reminders of it yesterday, nobody has the guts to bring that out.
Hunter Biden tells his daughter, you know, over the 30 years, I've always had to kick back 30% to pop.
That's of the illegal money.
steve bannon
Mayor, should Bill Barr, either if he doesn't do it, should be directed to, do we need a special prosecutor immediately on this Biden family situation?
This is not Hunter, this is about James Biden, this is about Joe Biden.
rudy giuliani
This will probably get me in a whole lot of more trouble.
We have someone, you know, attempting to get into the White House who is a career criminal.
He spent his life committing crime.
It goes back to when his brother was shaking down people as a lobbyist for small amounts of money in Delaware.
It has to do with his brother's house deals, the amount of money his brother made in Iraq illegally, the amount of money that he and his son made in Ukraine.
I say he and his son.
A lot of that money went to him.
Remember, remember the key phrase right from the text, pass the money on to Joe.
Pass the money on to Joe.
They were bad men.
Hunter Biden is collateral damage.
The bad guy here is not Hunter Biden.
He's a bad guy, but he's not the protagonist.
steve bannon
The President of the United States is the Chief Magistrate.
Last time I checked, the Chief Magistrate of the United States.
Should Bill Barr be directed, if he doesn't on his own volition, should he be directed today to appoint a special prosecutor with full subpoena power to investigate the entire Biden crime syndicate?
rudy giuliani
Yeah, I mean, the evidence should start to come out right now.
It's there.
It isn't as if we've got to go discover it.
steve bannon
It's sitting in a hard drive.
Mayor, would you volunteer to be that special prosecutor?
rudy giuliani
I'd volunteer to be the special prosecutor.
I'd volunteer to do a 10-hour lecture.
I'd volunteer to be questioned.
I'd volunteer to show them through my records.
I'd volunteer to take them through the hard drive.
unidentified
Mayor, if you were the special prosecutor... And I'd volunteer to settle my RICO indictment.
steve bannon
If you were a special prosecutor, if you volunteered or appointed a special prosecutor today, could you go in front of a grand jury and bring an indictment against Joe Biden and all of his family before the inauguration on the 20th of January, the year of our Lord 2021, which is, I don't know, six, seven weeks away?
rudy giuliani
You'd have to bring down a pared-down indictment.
You certainly couldn't bring the full racketeering indictment for the 30 years Of selling out, you know, 30, $40 million.
But you could do it.
You can certainly could do a discrete case with the most recent Chinese, the activity with the Chinese spies, where they were getting $10 million, going to get $10 million a year.
Hunter got a million dollars up front.
Joe was going to get 10%.
That was being done with a Chinese spy master and a Chinese intelligence operative who since got killed.
uh... that case to be done pretty quickly uh... that espionage estimates to it uh... you could certainly you could certainly do one on you could certainly do one on the ukraine bribes which are rare what the ones what what One's good enough.
steve bannon
You're saying right now you volunteer to be Special Prosecutor, and if you were appointed Special Prosecutor before the 20th of January, noon on the 20th, in front of a grand jury, you're confident that you could bring an indictment about their compromise by the Chinese Communist Party in taking money from the CCP.
That is correct?
That's what you're saying?
rudy giuliani
Yes, sir.
Yes sir, and I'm quite confident I can bring the Ukraine case.
That one I have 22 witnesses.
And I have tape recordings.
I mean, the Ukraine case is 100% made case for which I was tortured, pilloried, threatened with disbarment, threatened with prosecution.
steve bannon
This is why people love you, Mayor, because they understand you're a honey badger, you're relentless.
They don't care, you don't care how you mock, they don't care how you ridicule.
rudy giuliani
I'm very, very sad about this.
This isn't something that I'm happy about.
To see something like this happening to the presidency of the United States gets you close to wanting to cry.
I mean, I never thought I'd see a day in which somebody like this would be stepping into the White House, where I would possess, in my records, the evidence that shows that he's been a career criminal.
steve bannon
Mayor, I know you've got to bounce, and you've got to take care of yourself, Mayor.
The entire world needs you.
So we've got to keep you healthy, okay?
rudy giuliani
Thank you very much.
steve bannon
Short commercial break.
We're going to return in a second.
unidentified
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.
steve bannon
Yeah, just to remind everybody, the buried lead in the political story the other day, James is under investigation.
We know there's something to do and there's some hospital system in Western Pennsylvania, but we believe it's deeper than that.
And they've said that Hunter is actually under investigation, not for his taxes.
That's just emblematic.
It's for the For money laundering and for being compromised by the CCP.
They've already talked about six million dollars in cash.
It's much more than that.
Jack Maxey's got all the receipts.
The deals they were striking is hundreds of millions of dollars, fully financed by these illegitimate companies that are now all in bankruptcy and receivership in China.
Run by Chinese intelligence assets.
And Hunter Biden knows that.
There's an audio clip that Jack Maxey put up that he brags about, or I shouldn't say brags about, he identifies the fact that Patrick Ho, the guy that's his handler, is the senior spy in the CCP.
That's not technically correct, but at least in that universe he was the senior intelligence officer, intelligence asset, coordinating with Hunter Biden.
It's Hunter Biden's mouth that comes out, not Steve Bannon, not Jack Maxey.
The audio's his.
I want to turn now to, and by the way I just want to re-emphasize, Rudy Giuliani.
This is an American hero.
He's attacked and vilified constantly and he does not care.
He is out for the truth about this.
He said anybody that denies what's going on in Georgia is either blind or lying.
Let's get down to the receipts.
Let's see what went on.
Right?
I don't know what the problem is here with the media that's baseless, baseless, baseless.
Well, there's 2,000 affidavits.
We're going to Bernie Kerrick on later.
There's 2,000 affidavits, plus I think another 1,000 pieces of evidence.
They should put that in 100 binders, put it over in the Oval Office, and invite Barr over in front of the media to pick it up.
People yesterday up in Bethpage are protesting again, the loud majority of Long Island, right?
Sean Farish and the team up there, protesting again.
Because nobody in the Justice Department, nobody's reached out to the driver.
Jesse Morgan, another hero, he stepped forward.
He stepped forward, not one thing.
They all want to know, how did you meet Phil Kline?
How did you get on stage with Phil Kline?
That's what they want to know.
They want to know how he got his word, the word, out there.
That's what they want to do.
They want to suppress it all.
Because Jesse Morgan is just some grundoon.
Jesse Morgan is just some working stiff.
Jesse Morgan is just a deplorable.
He doesn't count in their world.
They just want to keep his mouth shut, and keep driving your truck, and pay your taxes, oh yeah, and go serving these overseas wars.
That's what they want.
I want to turn now to Steve Cortez, really someone that understands populism, economic nationalism, has been, I think, the key voice in awakening the Hispanic and Latino vote to the Trump revolution.
So disturbing what's going on.
I gotta go, because I know you are one of the top people on Wall Street to understand the infiltration of the Chinese Communist Party.
They're bragging about it.
Look at the video of the guy that runs the Cadre University.
The ones that are going all around now.
Tucker's got them on.
Everybody's got them on.
We've had these for a while.
unidentified
Right?
steve bannon
This guy's bragging about the American... Hey, we control America.
We control America through Wall Street.
They're our partners.
Right?
They're bragging about it.
That's a cadre school.
That's where they train the apparatchiks.
That's not some arts academy.
Yeah, go ahead.
steve cortes
Exactly right.
Chinese state media, which operates here in the United States, is not exactly hiding their thrill at the idea of a Biden presidency.
And regarding our media, by the way, which is trying to act effectively as state media for what they assume will be a Biden presidency.
You know, there really are our media for the last for most of the president's first term.
Their favorite word was collusion, as they constantly pushed this farce, this fantasy that there was cooperation and conspiracy between Donald Trump and the Russians.
Of course, that never occurred as verified by the Mueller report, but there is now actual collusion, actual election interference that has been occurring just in recent weeks in our own country. And who are the forces that are colluding? Well, it's the corporate media that chose willfully to ignore the biggest story by far of the entire campaign, the Chinese Communist Party buying the Biden cartel for millions of dollars.
Joe Biden, as the quote big guy, using his family, using his son as a bag man to sell out our country to the most dangerous adversary of the United States, the Beijing regime.
But it wasn't just media alone, Steve.
This is important.
There are really three groups of people.
One is corporate media.
The second is big tech.
The oligarchs of Silicon Valley were all too ready to assist big media in suppressing and censoring this story so that the American people would not be properly informed of the reality of who Joe Biden is and his traitorous activities.
And then the third group, which I think in some ways maybe is the most reprehensible of all, Steve, is the intelligence community of the United States and a lot of very senior alums of our national security apparatuses Including three former CIA directors, talking about Hayden and Brennan and Panetta.
All of them signed a letter stating that this information that the New York Post reported in their blockbuster report, that this information was a Russian propaganda operation, that it was Russian disinformation.
Now, that was completely baseless, that ludicrous opinion that they tried to push onto us.
They had no facts at all behind it.
We now know emphatically that it is not the truth.
But nonetheless, they lent the credibility of the United States federal government, of our national security operations, to that ridiculous, brazen lie.
And here's where I think Bill Barr is so blameworthy right now, is so guilty.
The fact is Bill Barr knew that.
He knew that three former CIA officials We're going on the record stating a lie that this was Russian disinformation at the same time that Bill Barr knew his own DOJ was investigating this very correct and real and dangerous criminal conduct by the Biden cartel.
Bill Barr, in my view, Steve, he had an obligation to the American people to come forward and say, these former CIA chiefs are dead wrong.
They are lying to you.
We have an open investigation.
This is a national security risk for the United States of America.
steve bannon
Why do you believe that Barr did not come forward?
steve cortes
I have no idea, but there's no good explanation.
That I will tell you.
And again, when you have this level of collusion, it's no wonder that so many Americans are losing their trust in the institutions of our country.
Look, the media's credibility was already largely shot, but now you also have big business, primarily big tech, and on top of that, The national security apparatuses of the United States.
When you have that kind of a breakdown and when you have that kind of actual collusion, not a made up fantasy, actual collusion to suppress the most important story of the presidential campaign, the fact that Bill Barr would not feel honor bound to come public with what he then knew is mystifying to me.
I think to your point earlier, the president needs to call him in and in all likelihood, He needs to be fired because here's the reality.
The United States is potentially weeks away from this man, this traitor Joe Biden, who sold out our country for millions of dollars to the two most dangerous enemies of America, Russia and China.
This man could potentially be taking the oath of office on January 20th.
Now, you and I and all the deplorables out there, We're doing everything we can to stop that from happening because we know that we won the legal vote.
But here's the point, Steve.
We would have won the legal vote by even more if this story had been fully investigated, had been fully retold effectively to the American people because all of these facts were known in October.
These facts were known and you and your team, you did incredible work with the laptop from hell, the hard drive from hell, to get these facts out there in the public.
We got corroboration from very credible patriots like Tony Bobulinski.
This information was known and it was buried.
And this is an absolute crime what has happened to the American people.
A lot of people out there who have busy lives, who are not politically astute, They simply did not know about this story.
Media Research Center did polling.
45% of Biden voters were unaware of this entire China-Biden scandal.
Had they been aware, you can surely bet that a certain percentage, enough to move the needle in some of these razor-thin states, that some of these voters would not have voted for Joe Biden because they couldn't possibly trust him to be our Commander-in-Chief when he's compromised by the Chinese regime.
steve bannon
Steve, one of the things I've always admired about you is not just your understanding of capital markets and finance and how you tie it back and make it accessible and explain it to the American people, but your level-headedness and you don't run around with your hair on fire.
Has the country, in your opinion, ever been in a crisis like it is now, constitutionally, economically, capital markets-wise, but even more about the soul and fabric of our government and its interrelationship, its relationship with the American people, with the consent of the governed, and with our enemies?
Have we ever had a crisis like this?
steve cortes
I don't think so.
I mean, look, certainly not in our lifetime.
And in terms of the internal situation, there weren't the external threats.
In terms of the internal situation, I don't think our country's been in this situation since the Civil War, really, quite frankly, in terms of just a disagreement over fundamental principles.
And as I said then, we didn't have an external threat.
And we now add to that the external threat and the degree to which the Chinese Communist Party has infiltrated the United States.
You know, it's really It's amazing and scary when you think about it.
You know, if you harken back to the Cold War, it would have been impossible in the 60s or 70s or 80s.
It would have been impossible to fathom that the Soviet Union could have infiltrated American society to anywhere near the degree that the CCP has now successfully integrated itself within the power structures of the United States.
You know, and the worst example by far is Beijing-Biden, is the fact that we have potentially a commander-in-chief who is compromised by the CCP.
But that's hardly the only example, because we know that big business CEOs are doing the business of the CCP.
We know university presidents are doing their bidding.
We know that influential figures in sports and culture, the NBA for example, I'm more than happy to be bought off by the Chinese Communist Party.
None of this would have been even thinkable regarding the Soviet Union when the country had largely unanimity in recognizing and facing down our enemy.
We need that same kind of resolve now.
Donald Trump is trying to provide it, and I think it's one of the reasons, by the way, that these reprehensible forces, big media, big tech, and a lot of these intelligence community alums, We've got about two minutes.
What do you think the path out of here is?
and actually conspiring to prevent him from claiming his legal victory and being sworn in again for a second term on January 20th.
steve bannon
We've got about two minutes. What do you think the path out of here is?
If you had to make a recommendation, what is the path for the American people to cut through this and to get to the sunlit uplands on the other side of this?
steve cortes
Sure. Well, for the president's part, it is my hope that he is going to call in Bill Barr at the least demand public explanations, if not fire him.
That's, of course, his decision to make, not mine, but that is my public recommendation.
Regarding the election, look, I am confident that the suit brought by Texas that is now joined by over a third of the states in the United States is a serious constitutional case.
And I've always believed this, and I think you have too, that the fraud is important.
It absolutely needs to be investigated.
But to some degree, that's icing on the cake.
The constitutional case is enough to say that the votes are so tainted in those four states that they are not valid and that they cannot be certified.
And the Constitution, thankfully, our founders very presciently laid out a process for exactly this kind of scenario.
And we can have and should have I think a contingent election that would likely result in Donald Trump being reelected president of the United States.
So that's part of the way forward.
And then also, Steve, I think we deplorables, we just, we have to keep the pressure up, particularly in our states, because we know that in the United States, we effectively have 50 elections, not really one.
And we've got to keep the pressure up in our states to make sure that Republicans know that whatever happens on January 20th, whoever the president is, That this movement is not going backwards.
We are not retreating to a 2014-2015 Republican Party of Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan.
And no, we will demand an America First agenda, we will demand accountability in elections, and we will never let an election like this one happen again in this great republic.

steve bannon
Speakers, marching, all of it.
We're going to get more of this later in the show.
I want to go now to Georgia, John Fredericks.
Our anchorman down there.
John, we started with a call up with Rudy Giuliani almost an hour ago where he said to the House Investigative Committee in Georgia, anybody that denies what went down there as far as the election fraud and the voter fraud is either blind or they're lying.
Sir, do we have enough heat?
Are people in Georgia, not just the deplorables, but our elected officials starting to awaken to what reality is?
john fredericks
I'm on the 12th day of my 12-day tour.
I hit pay dirt, finally.
I came south and came to Brunswick, Georgia.
It's about an hour north of Jacksonville on 95, so I'm in South Georgia coast.
Today on my show live I had Senator Bill Ligon, Representative Jeff Jones.
They were just spectacular.
They're fired up.
They want to fight basically what Senator Ligon said.
is you run towards the fight you don't run away they're very disappointed in their leaders uh... some of the things they said you can find on our youtube channel are incredible about uh... the lack of leadership here couple things they said uh... is uh... senator ligon who's a lawyer he filed a friend of the court amicus brief along with george in the texas lawsuit so basically uh... legislators in georgia are fighting their own attorney general who's
arguing on the behalf of the state against texas they got 15 state senators to sign it out of 34 Republicans in the House.
They got 30 to sign on out of 106.
Not big numbers, but it's something.
We had Buddy Calderon, a congressman from South Georgia.
He was one of the 103 Republicans who signed the Texas brief and he said, The Supreme Court is going to have to deal with this and hear it when you got 18 states and 103 Congress persons that have signed on to this.
So you got some fight here in South Georgia.
A couple things that came out of this Steve is that the Jeff Jones, Representative Jeff Jones with us, blasted Brian Kemp and he said he was basically disingenuous and he thinks we're stupid because he called on the Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to do a signature audit of the envelopes.
He asked them politely But then he knew he wasn't going to do it, and he wouldn't call a special session, and the special session, he said, is what would have given the General Assembly the authority to authorize and demand that signature verification.
So basically what Jeff Jones says is, they're lying to you, they have something to hide, otherwise they would want transparency, and they think you're stupid.
I mean, that's what I found out here today.
The other thing that's going on In Georgia right now, is we're finding out about why the legislature didn't vote for the special session for the presidential election when they didn't need three-fifths, and they were lying to the people about that.
They only needed 50% plus one.
Jeff Jones said that Speaker Ralston, who talked to the president, said he would get 91, did the opposite, that he strong-armed his caucus, said he rules it with an iron hand.
A lot of people were afraid of getting stripped from committees or being blackballed.
We got three state senators said the same thing about Butch Miller there, Senate Pro Tempore, and Jeff Duncan, Lieutenant.
Gov.
Cosmo, man with the $5,000 suits and the hair that runs for CNN, that they were threatening committee chairmanships.
I mean, you gotta ask yourself, for these people in Georgia that have stood in opposition to their people in order to protect Dominion, in order to protect Raffensperger, in order to protect an illegal election and consent decree, you just gotta ask yourself, why are they doing it?
What do they have to hide?
Purdue at the rally, I told you yesterday with Mike Pence, never mentioned the Texas lawsuit, the amicus brief, never mentioned anything.
He came under tremendous fire from that yesterday after that rally so that he and Kelly Loeffler today or late last night had to put a statement, a joint statement out saying they supported the Texas lawsuit and they were signing on to that.
But that was only after intense pressure from their own constituents.
I tell you what, Steve, some of these people are tone deaf.
They're not getting it.
They don't talk to voters.
But hopefully now we're getting some movement because we continue to shine a bright light here in Georgia where there was complete darkness.
I mean, this is a state with no conservative media.
The only talk show they have is Eric Garrison in the afternoon, who is a complete and utter never Trump or clown show.
That's all they have.
He doesn't take their calls.
They got the AJC, which is the kingpin of fake news.
Now we started GeorgiaStarNews.com.
We're bringing the truth every day.
I've got thousands of people tuning in to me in Georgia every day.
Finally, we're giving people an outlet and letting them get involved.
And the fact that we've gone to these cities and had the state senators and representatives come on and open them up to the people, Georgia has never had this.
steve bannon
And so it's making a difference to me.
John, we gotta bounce.
It's the YouTube.
Go to the John Fredericks on YouTube.
Is that where your show is?
john fredericks
Yes, sir.
unidentified
Okay.
john fredericks
John Fredericks.
steve bannon
Amazing.
Amazing reporting in from Georgia.
The truth.
The reality.
And you're changing things.
Right?
unidentified
Thank you.
steve bannon
This is why, why do you think Lafleur and Perdue came in last night?
Why do you think people in this legislature signed it up as amicus briefs?
It's because of the deplorables.
Okay, short break.
We'll bring in a deplorable.
