Thank you. | |
| Thank you. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Okay, live from our nation's capital, you're in the War Room. | ||
| It's Wednesday, the 13th of January, the year of our Lord. | ||
| 2021 now with over 28 million downloads on the podcast. | ||
| We're live on the John Frederick Radio Network nationwide, Real America's Voice. | ||
| That's Dischannel 219, Comcast Channel 113. | ||
| And on every distribution platform, I'm going to get back to giving you all the outlets that were covered. | ||
| We're either number one, two, or three every day in the nation as far as podcasts go, and we're in competition with Pod Save America and NPR, the two biggest liberal podcasts. | ||
| But that's only the smallest part of our distribution. | ||
| Today, we are honored to have Rabbi Sparrow with us. | ||
| Rabbi, can you please lead us in prayer before we start our discussion with you? | ||

|
Dear Lord, Almighty God, we come to you as Americans during this moment of great upheaval. | |
| Over our centuries, we have been a nation of differing opinion. | ||
| However, we are witnessing today more than difference of opinion, but acts of vengeance, acts motivated in the base and dangerous emotion of humiliation, acts of | ||
| those who are taking severe revenge against those with whom they disagree. | ||
| We ask you, Lord, that in this last minute you bring down from heaven upon the great body in Washington, D.C., in our capital, a sense of calm and that you purge many members | ||
| content on acts of vengeance and verbal violence. | ||
| I'm fired. | ||
| That which many have decided through this act, this malicious act of impeachment of our president. | ||
| It would be a moment of disgrace for this country. | ||
| Just as you calm the turbulent waters of the flood | ||
| After the torrential rains in the time of Noah, we ask that your spirit of calm and sanity enter into the hearts of those assembled in our nation's capital, so that they will not go through with an act of vengeance, a purposeful act of humiliation, that will bring unlimited strife | ||
| Within this country and the souls of men, those that are gathered today are not doing so for your glory. | ||
| And we ask that your glory be that which motivates us to our actions and that this dastardly deed shall not pass. | ||
| And we do so, we ask, In your name, Amen. | ||
| Amen. | ||
| So Rabbi Sparrow is the author of Pushback, Regaining the American Judeo-Christian Ethos. | ||
| I want to ask you, in that ethos, Rabbi Sparrow, and to set it today, because they're talking about purging Trump, you just talked about purging spiritually people so they get calm again. | ||
| One of the aspects of the American Judeo-Christian ethos Is we have avoided this kind of vengeance politics that you've seen in Europe, right? | ||
| That we want to separate ourselves from Europe, this kind of vengeance politics and particularly in third world countries and in Europe. | ||
| How do we do that? | ||
| How do we get that out of our system now that it's vindictive? | ||
| Because what they're doing to President Trump today Is what the Chinese Communist Party did during the Cultural Revolution. | ||
| Dr. Yan tells us that they're trying to disappear Trump. | ||
| They're trying to make him an un-person. | ||
| They're going to do it today with impeachment and then they're going to have a trial in the Senate in a week or so to make sure that he's stripped of all his secret service, stripped of all his ability to classify information, and particularly stripped of the ability to ever run for president again. | ||
| So this was something that we left behind. | ||
| How has this become so embedded now in the American political system? | ||
|
unidentified
|
75 million Americans from their right to be heard. | |
| Not simply asking that Trump disappear, but that we disappear. | ||
| Basically saying that through their purge and their denunciations that our Bill of Rights, our freedom of speech, our freedom of assembly be cancelled. | ||
| They even want to cancel And dismiss senators who were simply doing the job that the Constitution says, which is, for example, with Josh Hawley and Ted Cruz, it's their job as senators before votes are taken to debate an issue, to bring forth as representatives of the people Different ideas and questions before people vote. | ||
| This is what a Senate and a Congress does. | ||
| They want to cancel, not simply Donald Trump. | ||
| They don't want us to come back. | ||
| It's almost like the reign of terror that represented the French Revolution. | ||
| It's not simply a change. | ||
| It's a destruction. | ||
| We have this, I think, because people have precisely Dismissed and cancelled out are Judeo-Christian ethos. | ||
| Those who have a sense of religion, the spirit of religion, don't act with vengeance of this type. | ||
| They don't act to destroy. | ||
| The Judeo-Christian ethos embodies great lofty ideas that you fight for, but it's not based on destroying Your opposition. | ||
| This is something that happened in France. | ||
| This is something that happened in the Bolsheviks. | ||
| The French Revolution was precisely to destroy religion. | ||
| It was against religion. | ||
| The Bolshevik resolution was to destroy the Russian Orthodox Church. | ||
| If these people in Congress that are talking about impeachment today were infused with any type of religion or any type of respect for the Judeo-Christian ethos, they would not be doing what they're doing to the president. | ||
| And ultimately to what they're trying to do to us, which is to cancel our liberty. | ||
| There's nothing more fundamental to the Judeo-Christian ethos than liberty. | ||
| Liberty to debate, liberty to have your opinion, liberty to assemble, liberty to express your opinion, especially in the halls of Congress. | ||
| What's going on today is not simply the impeachment of a president. | ||
| It's the impeachment of our liberties and the impeachment of those in America that don't agree With, and are not in lockstep with, this power-grabbing bunch of authoritarian supremacists. | ||
| They really are like supremacists, they feel. | ||
| They're morally superior, intellectually superior, they're above the Constitution, they're above the American people. | ||
| So what's happening now, today, is not simply the impeachment of Donald Trump, it's the impeachment of the American people and the impeachment of our Judeo-Christian heritage. | ||
| Rabbi Sparrow, obviously people are very concerned that are in our audience about the direction forward. | ||
| What would you recommend that one or two things that our audience should be doing on a daily basis to get through this and to make sure that they're channeling their energies in the right direction? | ||
|
unidentified
|
To continue, this is very important to know what you believe. | |
| We are living through a moment Of comprehensive brainwashing and the erasure of our history. | ||
| People, good people, are being kicked off of social media. | ||
| Their jobs are being threatened. | ||
| They're being called domestic terrorists. | ||
| All so that a new vision and a new set of facts become dominant in America. | ||
| They're trying to make us forget what we believe, ostracize what we believe. | ||
| So, first of all, you have to make sure that you remember what you believe, you remember the facts, you remember the truth. | ||
| Don't let them take the truth from your consciousness, from your memory. | ||
| Pass on to your friends, to your children, to your family, what this country is all about. | ||
| And that at this moment, there are people that are trying to strip this country. | ||
| They talk about democracy. | ||
| They don't believe in democracy. | ||
| They talk about peaceful transition of power. | ||
| They don't believe it. | ||
| So don't let yourself be fooled. | ||
| Know what you believe. | ||
| That's the first thing. | ||
| And the second thing is that you cannot, you cannot give up. | ||
| It's going to be tough. | ||
| Because the people that have taken the reins of power are doing so in such a malicious way that is so un-American, something we've never seen. | ||
| But you can't give up. | ||
| Maybe today we don't have the exact answer how we're going to overcome this. | ||
| But people have to still believe that it can be overcome. | ||
| This is our country. | ||
| We have to fight for it. | ||
| This is why God Put you and me in history in this place at this moment. | ||
| We weren't born 200 years ago. | ||
| We're born to fight the battles of the day in which we live. | ||
| So I cannot at this moment give you a concrete plan, but you also have to call your representatives in Congress and in the Senate and say, listen, we still believe in the American way. | ||
| And that what we see happening here, the cancelling of our free speech, trying to take our assembly and call those of us that assemble even peacefully, peacefully, call us somehow members of insurrection, but let them know that we're not swallowing all of this. | ||
| We still know the score. | ||
| Last thing, Rabbi Sparrow, you said One of the key things, the most important thing, is remember what the truth is. | ||
| Remember what you believe. | ||
| Where would you point people, we've got about two minutes, to a book, a series of books, a website, where would you have people go on a daily basis now to basically grab onto something? | ||
|
unidentified
|
There are very good articles out there. | |
| If you read them, I can't at this moment give you Specifics. | ||
| Perhaps that's one of the purposes of your show. | ||
| From what I hear, you're basically in politics about the number one podcast. | ||
| You have tremendous distribution. | ||
| I know that when I'm on your show, I hear from friends far flung across the nation. | ||
| Maybe that's one of the purposes of the Stephen K. Bannon Show, is to remind people what the truth is. | ||
| Because what they are trying to do is to cancel out truth. | ||
| I don't think you've ever seen this before. | ||
| It's this is more than just a battle of ideas, which is what should normally be. | ||
| This is a battle to destroy the concept of an idea that you cannot have ideas. | ||
| Maybe that's part of what the war room should do is to let the American people on a daily basis, remind them incrementally of what the truths are and not allow this brainwashing. | ||
| That's what they did. | ||
| In the land of Maoism and in the early days of the Bolshevik Revolution, they tried to brainwash the people in such a way that they forgot the truth. | ||
| While Americans should not forget the truth, it shouldn't take us 70 years, like in the Soviet Union, to regain our truth. | ||
| We should never lose it to begin with. | ||
| And that's all part of, perhaps, the mission of the War Room. | ||
| Rabbi Sparrow, thank you very much. | ||
| Look, I'm honored that you came on. | ||
| Our audience loves you, and thank you for changing your day to start the show with appropriate prayer and then guidance. | ||
| Rabbi Sparrow, the author of Pushback. | ||
| We'll get that up next week. | ||
|
unidentified
|
For mentioning our book Pushback, thank you very much. | |
| We love the book. | ||
| Thank you, sir. | ||
| In fact, let's get Denver to get that cover. | ||
| We'll put it up later. | ||
| Rabbi Sparrow opens with a prayer for the nation and also gives us some, I think, terrific guidance. | ||
| I want to tell Rabbi Sparrow every day we will work to bring the truth, the information, the receipts to the American people. | ||
| Okay, short commercial break. | ||
| We're going to go to Jason Miller's going to join us next on the unfolding Impeachment process of the 45th president United States Donald J. Trump when we return on war War room impeachment | ||

| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Welcome back. | ||
| We're going to give you two. | ||
| We're going to give you a pandemic and an impeachment. | ||
| Okay, I want to go now directly to Jason Miller, and I want to tee it up. | ||
| One of our audience members, my phone is blown up. | ||
| Evil is powerless. | ||
| If the good are unafraid. | ||
| Evil is powerless if the good are unafraid. | ||
| That is a Ronald Reagan rift on Edmund Burke. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| Evil is powerless if the good are unafraid. | ||
| In this audience right now, we've got to step up. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| Understand, you're going to have good days and bad days. | ||
| You've got to step up right now. | ||
| Okay, Jason Miller, walk us through. | ||
| The 45th president, you've been his comms director on the campaign, senior strategist. | ||
| You saw what went on. | ||
| He's being impeached, even in a jam-through, right? | ||
| It's going to take a couple hours. | ||
| Normally it takes months. | ||
| They're going to do it in three or four hours. | ||
| Walk us through exactly what's happening. | ||
| Yeah, Steve, good morning. | ||
| It was great to hear the two intros. | ||
| It was almost like you had Vischer, Dan, back on the production set. | ||
| Let's walk through today, and I want to go through specifically what's new since we last spoke yesterday morning. | ||
| So the House has already reconvened. | ||
| They're handling their legislative business and debating the rule for this House Resolution 24, this article of impeachment. | ||
| As of this moment, I believe, Lloyd Doggett, now Tom Cole from Oklahoma, are up there. | ||
| Somewhere here during this half hour or so, we're going to have our first Vote on the series regarding the the rule and then actually I think that that just happened now we're on to the they were debating this article of impeachment so imagine the actual vote itself will come up probably around 3 30 or 4 p.m. | ||
| today they'll walk off the floor probably around 4 4 30 but and holy smokes and what Rosa DeLauro is like half of her head is purple and I'm not even sure what's going on here so I have the CNN on in the background so I'm giving you the play-by-play commentary and I mean, she looks like she needs to be at, like, a Billie Eilish concert. | ||
| But anyways, that's a side note. | ||
| But Stephen and Rahim, this is real serious stuff. | ||
| This is where we went in when we tackled this effort a year ago. | ||
| When we came through, and this was when they were trying to impeach President Trump the first time, we knew that we had facts on our side. | ||
| This is just a matter of Republicans standing up, showing some fortitude, quit kowtowing to what the chyrons on CNN or MSNBC or the woke mob at the New York Times or the Washington Post were doing to buck up and go and start fighting back. | ||
| If you can imagine, the consequence is even bigger now. | ||
| This is an even bigger deal. | ||
| We have the facts on our side. | ||
| The allegations that the President was inciting some sort of riot are just ridiculous. | ||
| Even the New York Times is reporting that there was already violence at the Capitol while the President was still speaking, so it's not as though people left that rally and then marched up there. | ||
| But here is, here's what we have to do. | ||
| We have to dig in. | ||
| We have to start fighting back and calling out that one, they're absolutely wrong on the facts, and you want to know what politicians, these weak-kneed wimps, You want to know what they understand? | ||
| They understand their own elections. | ||
| As I told you yesterday, when we talk about overall Trump supporters, we're talking about how Trump voters, they will hold anyone who votes for impeachment accountable, that they will be less likely to go and vote. | ||
| 80% of all Trump voters will vote against a member of Congress and 76% of all Republicans will vote against members of Congress. | ||
| This means if it's a Republican, If you're a Republican House member or you're a Republican Senator, I don't know how else to say this. | ||
| You are probably self-selecting to end your political future if you vote for the impeachment of President Trump. | ||
| And I want to make sure that people also understand this critical point. | ||
| I did not share these details yesterday, but in that recent survey that we did, we also asked the question, do you want President Trump to run again in 2024? | ||
| And the number on that, 70%. | ||
| of people who voted for President Trump want him to run again in 2024. | ||
| 63% of all Republicans want him to run again in 2024. | ||
| Now, you might think right off the bat, well, wait a minute, shouldn't that number be, say, 100% or even higher, even though most of the media would look and say, wow, that is a massive number. | ||
| Keep in mind when we do those vote enthusiasm scores, Usually President Trump, when about 70% of the people voting for President Trump, did so because they really wanted him to win, and about 30% were opposing Biden. | ||
| Keep in mind, Biden would only have like 30, maybe 40% of the people voting for him doing so because they actually wanted Biden to win. | ||
| So that 70% score by President Trump is a pretty damn good number. | ||
| So here's the reality. | ||
| Not only are the grassroots with President Trump, The grassroots have made it clear that they will not support these feckless cowards if they do not stand with President Trump on this. | ||
| President Trump is who both Republicans and Trump supporters want to come back in 2024. | ||
| I certainly want him to come back. | ||
| And the Republicans, whether it be the Liz Cheney's who go and Uh, go out there hardcore, or the Adam Kinzingers, uh, who are out there trashing President Trump, or even as we look to the Senate side, uh, as we talk, you know, with the kind of the read-between-the-leaves McConnell stories that are coming out, uh, you know, he clearly fed that to the New York Times, you know, it came, uh, straight from him, or, you know, straight from Josh Holmes, or one of his guys. | ||
| Uh, this will, this will be it for the Republican Party. | ||
| They will tear the Republican Party apart, and as I said yesterday, it's not even just about tearing apart the party, They are so triggered and so bent on trying to destroy populism in the United States, they would literally burn their own house down. | ||
| OK, I want to make sure people understand because I think it's been lost on on people on Capitol Hill, Republican Party, even maybe some of the people, the White House. | ||
| This is not just going to go away. | ||
| I think a lot of people would say, hey, he's got 10 days left, seven days left. | ||
| They just you know, if you just go quiet, it's going to go away. | ||
| Today is the start of, by the way they already shut him down, they started this by shutting down social media, cut off all his communications directly to his people, to his base. | ||
| Now today this starts a predicate that they're going to bring this to trial. | ||
| The whole key is here is to purge Donald Trump from the political process. | ||
| This is not going to go away. | ||
| Am I overstating that Jason Miller? | ||
| Oh, you're spot on. | ||
| And actually, Phoebe kind of completed my thought for me. | ||
| I should have kept going by just gotten a little bit of a rant. | ||
| But no, this today, the House of Representatives will vote to impeach President Trump. | ||
| Then that will go over to the Senate, where McConnell has said that the earliest it could start would be next Tuesday, the 19th. | ||
| But realistically, they're going to come back with Joe Biden as president. | ||
| So Joe Biden's going to own a lot of this as well. | ||
| And they're going to have a trial to impeach President Trump. | ||
| And it's going to be after he's gone, after he has all of the, I guess you'd say the support from being an incumbent or being a president who's in office. | ||
| And so people understand, here's what they're trying to do, Steve. | ||
| Number one, they want to make sure he can't ever run again. | ||
| Number two, they want to strip his secret service protection. | ||
| Number three, they want to abolish him from having a presidential library. | ||
| They want to literally, uh, control alt delete on the entire presidency of Donald J. Trump and all 75 million of his supporters. | ||
| And so this is what you say, it's very real. | ||
| Is there going to be a spirit of defense? | ||
| There's only a couple of hours, I don't even know how much debate they have, but are Jim Jordan and the Republicans going to get to put forward both the ridiculousness of trying to say he incited a violent insurrection, in addition, go back to page three of the charges, that it was predicated upon him continually lying About voter fraud, ballot fraud, and election fraud in these states. | ||
| Do you see a spirited defense of that? | ||
| Understanding this is not the trial, but this is where the trial, this is kind of like the grand jury. | ||
| Do you see a spirited defense by the Republicans on both of those topics? | ||
| I think you'll see it from our hardcores. | ||
| I think you'll see it from the Jim Jordans, the Matt Gaetzes, the good guys, the folks that, and by the way, I got to say it was great to see So many conservatives, Matt Rosendale from Montana for example, stand up and say that Liz Cheney needs to get booted as GOP House Conference Chair for coming out in favor of of impeaching President Trump. | ||
| But, you know, yesterday you asked me a similar question, Steve, and I said, I think I kind of leaned toward, let's go and get through this. | ||
| It's really, it's kind of already, the cake is already baked here. | ||
| We just have a couple hours of going back and forth. | ||
| So yes, you'll have folks from our side that are, they're standing up and fighting. | ||
| But let's be clear, like this is a, this is a runaway freight train when it comes to the House. | ||
| The real battle here is making sure that everyone listening, look, We have some pretty sophisticated listeners. | ||
| We have folks who have the, uh, the, the cell phone numbers for senators who, uh, who cut big checks, uh, to, uh, to Republican senators who contribute to the party committees and super PACs and such. | ||
| If you know a Republican senator, you better be reaching out today. | ||
| You better be writing that op-ed and letting them know that if, unless they get behind president Trump, unless they make it clear that they oppose And in no uncertain terms, the impeachment of President Trump, their political careers are finished. | ||
| What about what about our audience to go to House members? | ||
| Should they email? | ||
| Should they call their offices? | ||
| Should they should they text message? | ||
| What do you what's the call to action? | ||
| We got about a minute. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| All of the above. | ||
| All of the above. | ||
| And look, here's the reason why I said on the Senate side is because Look, we're going to have some defectors on the House side. | ||
| I don't know the exact number. | ||
| I don't want to speculate on that. | ||
| But since Democrats have control of the House, look, if you only have five minutes, go and spend it on focusing, look, tweets, emails, phone calls to the Senators. | ||
| That's where we need to put the pressure so these guys know, hey, it's not going to be a good result. | ||
| How do people get to you? | ||
| Give us your social media coordinates right now. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| Twitter, at Jason Miller in D.C. | ||
| Best way to track me down. | ||
| I don't have quite as good of a Twitter presence as Rahim, but I'm learning. | ||
| Jason Miller, the Comms Director for the President. | ||
| Thank you very much, Jason. | ||
| I appreciate you taking time. | ||
| I know you're under a lot of pressure today. | ||
| Alright, thanks, Steve. | ||
| Conrad Black just tweeted something really important. | ||
| He said, this will be the second impeachment preceding where a full transcript exists exonerating the President. | ||
| And this time we have video. | ||
| Unbelievable. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| It is what it is. | ||
| It's fight day again. | ||
| It's going to be back in a second. | ||
| on Capitol Hill, where an impeachment is about to take place. | ||

|
We will. | |
| War Room impeachment. | ||
| With Stephen K. Bannon, Jason Miller and Raheem Kassam. | ||
| War Room. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| And so so I mean, so the deal is, I mean, my question was very simple. | ||
| I mean, I'm asking to make a statement that the election was not stolen, that Joe Biden won fair and square. | ||
| And, you know, one of the ways to promote healing is for you to say yes and to put that on your Twitter account so that all these people who bought into a lie Uh, we'll start hearing from some of the people that were pushing this. | ||
| Uh, you know, the answer is, you know, the American people. | ||
| Mr. Chairman, Mr. Chairman, Joe Biden is going to be sworn in as president. | ||
| He is president-elect Joe Biden. | ||
| That's not the question I asked. | ||
| That is not the question I asked. | ||
| Our concern and why we raised objections was in several states, If you heard us last night with Dr. Peter Navarro, who knows China as well as anybody, that is a struggle session. | ||
| We talked about this back in the spring. | ||
| This is what the Cultural Revolution, this is what the Red Guards did. | ||
| In some cases, you had county clerks changing the election box. | ||
| That's what we're pointing out. | ||
| That's all we were pointing out. | ||
| If you heard us last night with with Dr. | ||
| Peter Navarro, who knows China as well as anybody, that is a struggle session. | ||
| We talked about this back in the spring. | ||
| This is what the Cultural Revolution, this is what the Red Guards did, struggle session. | ||
| You start right there with McCormick. | ||
| We can begin the healing, Jim Jordan, as soon as you say the magic words, and the magic words are Biden won fair and square. | ||
| And Jim Jordan refused to say that, as we're going to refuse to say that. | ||
| We're Americans, okay? | ||
| We look at facts. | ||
| They never want to talk about the facts. | ||
| They start the healing process. | ||
| It'll all end, Jim. | ||
| Or for the audience, you know, you'll be taken off the domestic terrorist list. | ||
| You will be taken off the no-fly list. | ||
| Your job will be secure. | ||
| You won't be ostracized in your community, right? | ||
| All you have to say is the magic words, Biden won fair and square. | ||
| Au contraire. | ||
| That needs to be debated. | ||
| Those receipts need to be shown and we need to have a robust, debate about that, and a robust investigation about that. | ||
| But here's the tell, ladies and gentlemen, this is why we're winning. | ||
| They need this. | ||
| They understand they do not have the legitimacy. | ||
| They need this. | ||
| Why are they hectoring Jim Jordan? | ||
| And by the way, it just happened on the floor. | ||
| McCormick goes after him. | ||
| You need to say he won fair and square. | ||
| They need that. | ||
| And they ain't going to get it. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| That's what the predicate of all this is about. | ||
| Mr. Raheem Kassam. | ||
| What happens when you pay the protection racketeer? | ||
| He comes back and you've got to pay him again. | ||
| Comes back and you've got to pay him again. | ||
| If we defer to their demands now, what are they going to demand we say next week? | ||
| What are they going to demand we accept as reality next month? | ||
| For healing and unity. | ||
|
unidentified
|
In the name of healing and unity. | |
| Healing and unity. | ||
| They need it. | ||
| They ain't going to get it. | ||
| What they're going to get is the receipts. | ||
| Now, if you get a fully adjudicated process and you prove the receipts are not what they look like, that's different. | ||
| But that hasn't happened yet. | ||
| They've run and avoided it. | ||
| And that's why they're shutting people down. | ||
| They don't even want to hear it. | ||
| The healing process will begin. | ||
| And by the way, what you did and Posobiec did to prove that's going to be one of the president's defenses that, hey, and where is mainstream media in this? | ||
| It couldn't have been it was you guys did hard work at National Pulse and with Posobiec to prove the timeline here. | ||
| Right, and you ought to tell the audience about that. | ||
| But it wasn't like CNN and everybody else were piling in here. | ||
| I think the New York Times concurred with you. | ||
| Was it the afternoon afterwards, the paper of record in this country that has hundreds of millions of dollars to do all this research kind of concurred with Raheem Kassam's national pulse? | ||
| Tell us what happened and why is this one of the defenses of one element of this for the president? | ||
| Yeah, the day after we published this, a full day plus a half after we published the story about the timeline, because look, it was just boiled down to this, this weekend, and I was walking around the hill and looking at all the militarization of everything that's been going on here on the Capitol Hill, and my brain just started going in overtime about, hey, wait a minute, why haven't we heard Why has nobody made the case for what actually happened on the day? | ||
| I called up Pesobic and we realized that we hadn't even told the world that we were there. | ||
| We were walking past Capitol Hill, a hundred yards away from where things were going on, at the time they say it was going on. | ||
| We left Capitol Hill to head down to downtown America's Voice Studios while the president was still speaking, which means it was at the same time. | ||
| And I distinctly recall hearing, and actually I periscoped the walk, which people can still go back and find. | ||
| I live-streamed the entire walk through downtown. | ||
| I distinctly recall hearing two loud bangs. | ||
| And at first I thought they were fireworks. | ||
| Later on we discovered that they were, you know, whatever, the flashbangs or whatever it was, tear gas, whatever. | ||
| But then I figured, oh my goodness, not only did that mean that they were there, that everything was kicking off, as we say, Way before the President ended his speech, but actually the people would have had to have been there, would have had to leave the President's speech before the President's speech even began in order to make it up to him. | ||
| So we actually have done this really wonderful graphic that we're going to put up later today. | ||
| We'll get it on the screen shortly as well. | ||
| But it walks people through, hey, what time was the Trump speech? | ||
| What time did these first, um, you know, troublemakers arrive at the Capitol? | ||
| What time was the, uh, did Steve Sund, who is the head of Capitol Police, was the head of Capitol Police, it's now a Biden donor, by the way, if you didn't know that, uh, who they've replaced him with, uh, who has aliases, pretty weird for a Capitol Police chief. | ||
| One o'clock, Stun said the officers were attacked. | ||
| 1.09pm requested National Guard backup. | ||
| Obviously that didn't come until about 5.30 in the afternoon because of Mayor Bowser and other people. | ||
| President's speech is still going on at this point. | ||
| Then at 1.11pm the President says the last words, at 1.13pm the President leaves the stage, and it was at 1.50pm that the inside of the Capitol was breached. | ||
| The physical premises rather than the grounds. | ||
| Let's say you came out of the President's speech, it's 1.13, you're walking out, it's 1.15, 1.16, you start to walk out there, you start to walk up, it's uphill, Capitol Hill, thousands of people around you. | ||
| There is no way you could make it to the Capitol before 1.56 in the afternoon. | ||
| Now, I understand that a few people may have Yeah, that happens everywhere, everything. | ||
| But do throngs, do masses, do dozens, hundreds and thousands of people leave the President of the United States speech in the middle? | ||
| And Lynne Cheney, that was a peaceful march up there from there, but Lynne Cheney called it a mob. | ||
| Just remember, Liz Cheney called you a mob. | ||
| OK, was there bad elements that were already up here doing things that they should be held totally accountable for? | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| Right. | ||
| But is the of the million or five hundred thousand, how many they were right versus the couple of hundred? | ||
| And by the way, they've only arrested, I think, 50 and they've got another 160 they're looking for. | ||
| You think there's five hundred thousand to a million that were as peaceful as they were on the November 12th rally? | ||
| And she referred to you as a mob and she's going to impeach the president of the United States for this, holding him directly accountable. | ||
| Also the second part. | ||
| So let's hit the reset. | ||
| Where are we today? | ||
| Why is this important? | ||
| Let's give them signal, not noise. | ||
| Because people, they're sitting there going, it's just got to be quiet and we're going to get through this. | ||
| It's going to be fine. | ||
| He's got seven days left. | ||
| Do not understand the strategic picture of what's going on here. | ||
| Okay, so let's consider that Conrad Black tweet I read before the break, right? | ||
| This will be the second impeachment proceeding where a full transcript exists exonerating the president and video now exists this time as well. | ||
| So their evidence base is even thinner than last time around. | ||
| Indeed, most of the world recognize what a ridiculous situation we were in one year ago sitting here making these arguments. | ||
| And remember, I think somewhere around this building we still have all the stacks of papers, and I printed every single testimony that there was. | ||
| And I went through every single one and highlighted every single thing and do you remember the flaws we found? | ||
| It was such obvious and evident flaws that we found in their logic. | ||
| You know where Gordon Sondland was talking to some guy on the terrace out in wherever and it didn't make sense, one guy said he didn't tell the other, the other guy... It was clear that a narrative had been confected at the time to pursue an impeachment and the same thing is clearly happening here as well. | ||
| So the other part of this that I think people need to realize is, let me read you All the times in recent US history where elected representatives have objected to the Electoral College results. | ||
| In 1969, Democrats objected. | ||
| In 2001, Democrats objected. | ||
| In 2005, Democrats objected. | ||
| In 2017, Democrats objected. | ||
| I see a pattern. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| The pattern is, actually, that every time the Republicans use a Democrat tactic, They call it a coup. | ||
| They call it collusion. | ||
| They call it something that is, you know, oh, it's insurrection, it should never be counted, it should never be... Hey, here's the deal. | ||
| You guys said that this president stole the 2016 election in conjunction with Vladimir Putin. | ||
| So here's the deal. | ||
| You guys stole the election in conjunction with the Chinese Communist Party. | ||
| How about that? | ||
| Is that you're trying to trigger people now? | ||
| That is exactly what happened. | ||
| That is exactly what happened. | ||
| I don't know why we mince around this, or we don't, but Republicans on Capitol Hill, Republicans even in the White House, mince around the fact that the Chinese Communist Party Put people in, they have Eric Swalwell, they now have the personnel, the chief personnel officer that is supposedly going to work for the Joe Biden White House. | ||
| Tell us this, it's a dis-announcement, correct? | ||
| We just broke this news on the National Pulse overnight. | ||
| The personnel, and remember what they say in Washington DC, personnel is policy, personnel is policy. | ||
| So the person making the personnel decisions on behalf of the Joe Biden administration, Thomas Zimmerman, Was a visiting scholar at what the FBI has called, not the Trump friendly FBI, right? | ||
| The FBI has called a front group for Chinese intelligence collection and overseas spy recruitment. | ||
| That would be the Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences. | ||
| They covered up, Big Tech covered up, because of all the Chinese investment that goes in there, covered up Hunter Biden and his effing Chinese spy chief. | ||
| His words, not mine. | ||
| So let's be very clear about who stole an election and with whose foreign outside collusion assistance here. | ||
| Okay, here's what we got to do. | ||
| The posse continues to grow and we want to make sure everybody has access. | ||
| We want you now to text WAROOM, that's one word, to the number 888-111 and download the Real America's Voice app. | ||
| Okay, get the app and then you can get into the live chat. | ||
| Or you can go to waroom.org. | ||
| Or go to America's Voice. | ||
| That's one word. | ||
| Americasvoice.news. | ||
| That definitely puts you in with the live chat. | ||
| We need the community. | ||
| The one thing YouTube did have had that great live chat capability. | ||
| The community here is everything is very important. | ||
| We're also on Rumble. | ||
| We're obviously one of the biggest podcasts in the world. | ||
| Go to all the podcast platforms. | ||
| We're also on Populous Press. | ||
| That's oneword.com. | ||
| Go to populistpress.com or you can go to Creative Destruction Media, CDM. | ||
| Many of the other sites were up hard. | ||
| Once again, I want you to text War Room to the number 888-111 and you can get right in there. | ||
| And it's very important. | ||
| Go to hashtag warroompandemic. | ||
| I want to make sure you're in the live chat. | ||
| And today's a day for action. | ||
| Make sure you know who your congressman is. | ||
| You know who your senator is. | ||
| Make sure that you contact them and let them know What you think is going to happen on a historic day with seven days left in the administration, they're jamming through an impeachment of the 44th president. | ||
| And what does Conrad Black, I want to get that quote once again, Rahim, what did Conrad Black say? | ||
| He said this is now the second impeachment where we have a transcript that exonerates the president. | ||
| This is not about the facts. | ||
| This is a predicate. | ||
| What they want to do is have a trial in the Senate and they're not going to have it. | ||
| They're going to walk it over to Mitch McConnell next week. | ||
| Mitch McConnell is going to pass it to Chuck Schumer. | ||
| They're going to try the president in his absentia in the Senate and to try to strip him of everything. | ||
| Most importantly, the ability to run in 2024. | ||
| We're going to be back in a moment trying to get Rudy Giuliani, John McLaughlin, the pollster for the President, Boris Epstein, over to the White House. | ||
| Today's impeachment day. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We will be back in just a moment. | |
| Impeachment. | ||
| With Stephen K. Bannon, Jason Miller, and Raheem Kassam. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Oh Okay, welcome back. | ||
| Breaking news, the House is now, this is from Manu Raju, the House is now voting in the first of three votes today. | ||
| First will be a procedural vote, followed by approval of a rule governing floor debate. | ||
| Then the House will debate for two hours the article of impeachment, approval of the article of impeachment, likely by 4 p.m. | ||
| So we're going to start a process at about 10. | ||
| Finish at four. | ||
| That's six hours to do this. | ||
| Two hours of debate, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| Two hours of debate. | ||
| I want to make sure you embrace all of that. | ||
| We're going to put up later the switchboard number for the House and the Senate. | ||
| We want all of the war room posse, if you think it is worth your time and effort. | ||
| To contact your congressman and your senator and let them know what you think about this rush to judgment. | ||
| I now want to bring in the President's Impeachment Counsel, the first time around, the Mayor, former Mayor of New York City, Rudy Giuliani. | ||
| So Mayor, where do we stand with this? | ||
| You know, people, I think, for the last 48 hours said, hey, if he just, you know, if he keeps a low profile, if he goes to the board and doesn't say anything, get him out of town, they're not, you know, this is just going to all pass like a summer storm. | ||
| That would be incorrect because this is setting up To have a trial in absentia and to strip him of his ability to continue basically to politically lead the MAGA movement and run for re-election in 2024. | ||
| So Mayor, where are we on this? | ||
| Is the President of the United States going to stand and make a defense here? | ||
| I think he is now. | ||
| I don't know that your strategy and mine differs very much. | ||
| My strategy in a political campaign or in a political trial, which is what this is, this has nothing to do with the law. | ||
| Is all offense all the time. | ||
| I learned it from Roger Ailes. | ||
| I'll give him credit for it. | ||
| And I learned it, I guess, from having to run the toughest city in the United States. | ||
| But that little gap of a couple of days was really, really very damaging. | ||
| They have now set a narrative and they're using it on the Hill now as if it's just the truth that he caused the insurrection. | ||
| That's just not true. | ||
| It's not even close to truth. | ||
| And the insurrection would set up days before he ever spoke by people unrelated to him and who hate him. | ||
| And we have all the proof of that. | ||
| Hang on, hang on, hang on. | ||
| I didn't let Dominion go. | ||
| I'm not going to let this go. | ||
| So you've got evidence. | ||
| Is that evidence going to be put forward today or are you going to... As soon as he wants us to. | ||
| And I've given out a lot of that evidence. | ||
| I mean, I can show it to you. | ||
| Give me the iPad. | ||
| I'm going to be in a hurry. | ||
| The Republicans will let this thing be run on them, that it's only two hours of debate. | ||
| So what's actually going to get put forward today? | ||
| And I realize this is more of the grand jury process. | ||
| We got to go back to our lessons on impeachment from last year. | ||
| This is the grand jury process. | ||
| But what is even, I guess, Jim Dordan or Matt Gaetz, what are they even going to be able to put forward? | ||
| Well, I think they're going to emphasize the fact that he won the election. | ||
| And that therefore there was justification for all of the upset and all of the anger and I guess that's it. | ||
| I certainly believe he won the election. | ||
| Hang on, stop. | ||
| Hang on. | ||
| Hang on. | ||
| Hang on, Rudy. | ||
| Hang on. | ||
| You're dropping bombshells here. | ||
| Just slow down. | ||
| You're saying that you think that Jim Jordan, as is one of his defenses, he's going to go out and make the case which will make the permanent poll class meltdown. | ||
| He's going to say in the well of the House, or in the House, that Donald Trump won the election and he's going to make the case for the voter fraud and the election fraud? | ||
| Well, I don't know. | ||
| Maybe I should say I don't know if he's going to draw the conclusion. | ||
| He certainly, from his earlier remarks, is clearly going to show that he was cheated. | ||
| He went into great detail just a little while ago about how he was cheated in Pennsylvania, which, of course, Jim knows the best because he's from Pennsylvania, about how the people were pushed away, how the people weren't allowed to view something like 600,000 ballots, which alone would switch Pennsylvania. | ||
| So at least that's the thrust that I got of what they're going to do. | ||
| And I don't mind some of that. | ||
| I would like to see the emphasis on what the charges are about, however. | ||
| The charges are about insurrection. | ||
| Whether he won the election or not, you can still be involved in insurrection. | ||
| So he wasn't involved in insurrection. | ||
| This is a more absurd charge than the Ukraine charge. | ||
| And because some Republicans have joined it, it's gotten more credibility. | ||
| Hold on. | ||
| Hang on. | ||
| Slow down. | ||
| Why do you say it's more absurd than Ukraine? | ||
| In Ukraine, you had the recordings of a conversation that the president said was perfect. | ||
| And then later, with the hard drive from hell of Hunter Biden, it proved that it was pretty good. | ||
| How is this more absurd than even that? | ||
| Because there are a significant number of Notices that went out beforehand by Antifa and Black Lives Matter to cause this because the speech itself nor and the other speeches are completely devoid of any of the language you would have in a case for incitement. | ||
| Every professor has said that even the ones that hate him have said that because the thing on the hill started a half hour before he finished. | ||
| Because the thing on the Hill had very few people, if any, from the speech there. | ||
| They were independently imported people. | ||
| For the people on the Hill to get to that thing that happened from the people at the rally. | ||
| Rudy, Mayor, Mayor, Mayor, Mayor, hang on, hang on. | ||
| We say no connection, but please stay with the break. | ||
| You've got the FBI, Rudy, and you've got all the security apparatus up here that say you're even more dead wrong than you are in the election. | ||
| They say that there's no involvement in Antifa. | ||
| They're right now running around trying to get all these guys who are throughout the country that are shamans and, you know, 70 year old guys from South Carolina or, you know, retired lieutenant colonels. | ||
| They have not picked up one Antifa guy. | ||
| And they say at the press conference the other day, I think they emphasize. | ||
| They let the top guy go. | ||
| The FBI, if they're even to be called that anymore, let the top guy go. | ||
| I put out a video of this three days ago. | ||
| Nobody looks at it. | ||
| I put out the five invitations three days ago. | ||
| Nobody looks at it. | ||
| I have evidence. | ||
| The FBI has corrupt information. | ||
| The FBI let go the guy who organized this. | ||
| Who organized a similar rally in Utah that led to the death of another human being. | ||
| The guy they let go filmed the murder. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He's a material witness to the murder. | |
| Hang on a second, we'll come right back with Mayor Rudy Giuliani, John McLaughlin, Boris Epstein, Rahim Hassan. |
