The Chinese authorities have imposed a lockdown in the central city of Wuhan, where the coronavirus... ...a massive construction effort to build a new hospital... ...millions of people are in quarantine... ...a new virus that has killed nine people and infected hundreds more in China has now spread to the US... ...WHO is meeting a meeting today to decide whether they're going to declare that a worldwide public health emergency... | |
This morning, the CDC announced confirmation of the second case of novel coronavirus in the U.S. | ||
A number of people are being tested for the coronavirus. | ||
There are seven types of coronaviruses that infect people. | ||
This morning, the CDC announced confirmation of the second case of novel coronavirus in the US. | ||
A man in his 30s from Washington state is the first person in America to be diagnosed with coronavirus. | ||
And health officials have confirmed that the virus can spread from person to person. | ||
It is contagious. | ||
Because with RAC being a global society, the threat of infectious disease is only a screen light away. | ||
Welcome. | ||
This is War Room Pandemic. | ||
It is episode one. | ||
We are live from Capitol Hill. | ||
It's the 25th of January, the year of our Lord 2020. | ||
This is a special Uh, on this pandemic, uh, the, uh, we talk about warm impeachment, the opportunity cost that the country is going through in this constitutional crisis forced on us by Democrats. | ||
We think it's twofold. | ||
Number one, the work of the country, the work of Donald Trump and what he's trying to accomplish for the country, but also other things are happening in the world. | ||
We've ascertained over the last 24, 48 hours that the biggest story in the world turns out not to be President Trump's impeachment, which is kind of become a farce because of the Democrats, but really what this a potential pandemic. | ||
Coming out of China and what we've assembled given our contact relationships and interest in China is really a group of experts over the next couple of days and weeks to be able to separate out the rumor and the hype and the hysteria from what the facts are, what the facts are on the ground. | ||
Live from Washington D.C. | ||
it is, you're in the War Room, War Room Pandemic as we go through, work through this pandemic and also work through, it's still another impeachment. | ||
Unbelievable, as much as things change, how they stay the same. | ||
Wanted to start, this is the first year. | ||
That's exactly what I was thinking, plus que change. | ||
So, first anniversary, our first guest was Jack Pasova, he's joining us in a second, and the reason we wanted to start on the anniversary show, we don't really have as much time as we wanted to, to do some of the anniversary things, so we're going to spread this over a couple of days because there's just so much news going on. | ||
Is that we go out of our way to really think through what's important and what's not. | ||
And I understand on the pandemic, there's lots of controversy. | ||
People think it's a scam. | ||
Other people think it's a hoax and other people think it's the worst thing that's ever happened in human history. | ||
The one thing we did know at the time, it was going to change the course of not just world history, but American history. | ||
You could see what was happening in Ube province, and so it has. | ||
As we sit here in the – remember, we told you it would trigger a financial crisis, that would – economic crisis, that would trigger a financial crisis, that would then lead to a political and geopolitical crisis, all of which it did. | ||
And at the time, we were saying that this impeachment – it showed you the impeachment was just a massive opportunity cost, a waste of time and focus away from what was important. | ||
Now that we know about Hunter Biden's hard drive from hell that was delivered in December, even makes it more of a waste of time. | ||
Before we bring in Jack Posobiec, Brahim, thoughts? | ||
A first year anniversary? | ||
We're still trying to give you the signal, not the noise. | ||
After sitting here for a year through all of this, what are your thoughts? | ||
And I haven't moved. | ||
Well, it's true, right? | ||
That's the French saying, plus gachange, plus c'est la même chose, I think. | ||
The more things change, the more they stay the same. | ||
And that intro could have been given today as much as it could have been given a year ago. | ||
This is the kind of the circular nature the Democrats have the country in right now, running the hamster wheel. | ||
It's shocking about the impeachment. | ||
A year ago today we opened this show at 10 o'clock in the morning after doing a couple of practice runs. | ||
We really started on the 23rd. | ||
A couple of practice runs and we started today and we were talking about, we took the second hour of the show, we had impeachment and pandemic. | ||
One year afterwards, we're still in pandemic, and impeachment, in fact, the two top news articles coming out of Washington, D.C., is the COVID bill and everything related to the pandemic, the vaccines, all of that, and the upcoming trial of Donald J. Trump for the second time in the United States Senate. | ||
And a few thoughts from the live chat here. | ||
Number one, not everybody recognized that that was, because we've had so many new people join us over the last year, not everyone recognized that that was the old music bed and the old you, and people were commenting on how wonderful your haircut looked, how wonderful you clean shaved looked, and how wonderful the music was without Fauci's voice. | ||
I am, by the way, I promise I'm going to clean up. | ||
I want to come in fully loaded like this to kind of compare and contrast the years. | ||
It's been a tough year. | ||
I want to bring in now Jack Basovic because it's very important. | ||
So to give you signal and not the noise day, we've got so much news we're going to go through. | ||
We're going to take you to Arizona with Kelly Ward. | ||
We're going to take you to Wyoming with the great heroes out there standing up to Liz Cheney, the accountability of what happened to President Trump. | ||
We've got Dr. Yan to talk about the Wuhan lab. | ||
So the show is going to be broad in scope but deep in content. | ||
I want to bring in Jack Basovic. | ||
And Jack, just give us your year. | ||
You were the very first guest we had on here. | ||
In fact, I think you were the co-host for the entire hour. | ||
Give us your assessment of where we were a year ago and kind of our prescience in getting ahead of that, where we are today. | ||
You know, Steve, it was amazing. | ||
I actually was looking over some notes for this while I was listening to the intro just now. | ||
And for a second, I thought, wait, Is he talking about the impeachment right now and the pandemic stuff right now? | ||
Or is this the old one? | ||
I looked up and I see it's from one year ago, and it really just kind of blew my mind how everything that you were saying back then you could say today. | ||
We really are stuck in a dark city kind of feedback loop over all this. | ||
And one year ago today, I remember people saying, Jack, what's going on in China? | ||
I was going back and forth. | ||
Going on to Chinese social media, translating, you know, these posts that were coming up, people falling out in the streets, massive lockdowns going on, and nobody was talking about it. | ||
They didn't understand what it meant. | ||
They didn't understand the severity of what it meant for the Chinese Communist Party to take the actions that they were taking. | ||
Now, keep in mind, this is back in January of 2020, so we already know now that the CCP knew they had a problem as far back as November, October. They knew that something was going on, but they kept it secret. They were detaining people. We finally caught wind of it, some folks in December, then by January, and then finally it was pandemic war room. | ||
That was the first episode. And I remember people were saying to you guys, you're fear mongering, you're taking it too far. This isn't going to be a big thing. | ||
People people make sure The mainstream media people around town laughed. | ||
I mean, I'm talking about New York Times, Washington Post laughed in my face. | ||
This is just lunacy, this is nothing. | ||
Fauci had gone on the radio. | ||
Over that weekend and said, remember John Katzmatydi's radio show and said, there's nothing to see here. | ||
This is not going to affect America, not going to come. | ||
Here's what I want to do. | ||
And this is what's so important. | ||
I want to play President Xi. | ||
OK, so for the important stuff, Jack, I want to get down to what happened today, because The Biden administration in America was put on notice, and this means Jake Sullivan and Tony Blinken have got a tougher job to do than they had earlier this morning. | ||
President Xi gave the seminal address, the keynote address, in Davos. | ||
It wasn't today, it was all global, but it was the World Economic Forum in Davos, which has postponed their real meeting, I think it's going to be in Singapore. | ||
In the in the in May where they're going to really have Davos is going to be there. | ||
But he gave the keynote address. | ||
Remember, four years ago, he gave a keynote address at Davos in person. | ||
I think on Wednesday, President Trump gave his inaugural address. | ||
On Friday, and they were diametrically opposed, she was talking about the glories of globalization and said, the biggest problem we have are these populist nationalist movements throughout the world. | ||
President Trump came in and gave a full throated defense of the Westphalian system, the sovereignty of the nation state and the ability of the nation state to to be a sovereign entity and to make its citizens to make its own decisions. | ||
She waited this time, I think, for Biden to have this feckless, you know, You know, John Heilman thinks it's the equivalent to the second inaugural address of Lincoln. | ||
It was one of the greatest speeches in, like, Plutarch's, or Pericles' funeral oration at Athens, right? | ||
They're saying it's that level. | ||
It was a joke. | ||
And he never mentioned China. | ||
So can we tee up? | ||
I want to play Xi and I want to get Jack Posobiec's thoughts on this. | ||
This was a total throwdown On the Biden administration in America in the West. | ||
This is under the hey, no reset. | ||
Let's play it. | ||
unidentified
|
Should not be our option. | |
Third, we should stay committed to consultation and cooperation instead of conflict and confrontation. | ||
Differences in history, culture and social system should not be an excuse for antagonism or confrontation, but rather an incentive for cooperation. | ||
We should respect and accommodate differences, avoid meddling in other countries' internal affairs, and resolve disagreements through consultation and dialogue. | ||
History and reality have made it clear time and again that the misguided approach of antagonism and confrontation Be it in the form of Cold War, Hot War, Trade War or Tech War, would eventually hurt all countries' interests and undermine everyone's well-being. | ||
We should reject the outdated Cold War and zero-sum game mentality, adhere to mutual respect and accommodation, and enhance political trust through strategic communication. | ||
It is important that we stick to the cooperation concept based on mutual benefit. | ||
Say no to narrow-minded, selfish, beggar-thy-neighbor policies. | ||
And stop unilateral practice of keeping advantages in development all to oneself. | ||
The reason that you have a firewall here in the United States, the tech oligarchs, the mainstream media, the giant corporations, and Wall Street are the business partners of Xi. | ||
They're the active business partners in the Party of Davos. | ||
And right there, you've seen Xi. | ||
He doesn't want the confrontation. | ||
That was the hallmark of the Trump administration, the confronting of the Chinese Communist Party about not just their dictatorial rule over the Chinese people, right, enslaving the Chinese people, but what they've done to infiltrate and to change the course of Western history. | ||
They want consultation, accommodation, as in Rahim. | ||
Appeasements work so well in the West, such a great track record. | ||
Appeasement has such a great track record in the West, in our history. | ||
He's saying, basically, no reset, right? | ||
And if you guys want to continue down this path, it's going to go from Cold War to Hot War. | ||
And that's why they're signaling in Taiwan, they're sending 13 bombers over this weekend. | ||
They've already made a statement they want all the aircraft carrier battle groups out of the Taiwan Straits. | ||
They couldn't be clearer. | ||
And now you know why I was sanctioned personally. | ||
Four minutes into the Biden administration, 28 people, including Mike Pompeo, who designated them a genocide regime against the Uyghurs on the way out. | ||
Mike Pompeo and the intelligence agencies also said that the Wuhan virus, that the Wuhan lab initiated this virus. | ||
It either leaked out or was let out personally, and that the Wuhan lab is part of the PLA's biological weapons program. | ||
I didn't hear any apologies for that, didn't hear any Hey, we're going to help people work through that, taking any responsibility whatsoever for the havoc that they've caused to the world. | ||
What they did is signal two things to the Biden administration, particularly the feckless John Kerry. | ||
Hey, on climate change, we can be a partner here. | ||
We're actually going to do something. | ||
It's going to be 2090, excuse me, 2060. | ||
When we'll be ready to go. | ||
So, you know, like 40 years from now, we'll be there, guys. | ||
So on climate change, we want to work with you. | ||
And on the pandemic, which we caused, the COVID-19, we'll work with you, too, on that somehow. | ||
We caused it, but we don't want to talk about that. | ||
We think it, you know, the propaganda on CCTV now says it came from Fort Detrick. | ||
They had a seven-minute or eight-minute hit on that the other night. | ||
So I want to bring Priscilla back in, but Rahim, your thoughts on Xi and the importance of the speech today? | ||
You know, there's going to be a massive Chamberlain moment, I think, for Joe Biden here. | ||
After hearing this speech, he's got nothing else to do but come out and repudiate everything that Xi has intimated here, but he won't. | ||
And that is going to be a Chamberlain moment. | ||
That is a disaster. | ||
It's a disaster for the free world. | ||
It's a disaster for ordinary Chinese citizens. | ||
It's a disaster for Hong Kong. | ||
And it will be a full-throated victory for the Chinese Communist Party. | ||
Uh, Posobiec, give us your thoughts. | ||
We got about a minute before we got to bounce and we're going to hold you over the next break. | ||
Your thoughts on Xi's throwdown? | ||
Well, I was actually have here in my notes the exact same thing that Rahim just said. | ||
This was a victory speech. | ||
This is Xi Jinping declaring himself. | ||
Look, a year ago today, I talked about the mandate of heaven and that this pandemic of pestilence was a challenge to the CCP's mandate of heaven. | ||
This was Xi Jinping going to Davos, going to Klaus Schwab, and accepting, or at least nominating himself for the global mandate of heaven. | ||
The last line of his speech, there is only one Earth and one shared future for humanity. | ||
And when Xi Jinping is telling the leaders of the world that, he's not suggesting it, he's giving an order. | ||
Right. | ||
The reason I'm sanctioned is not just my work in the early days of the Trump administration to be one of the architects for President Trump of Pottinger and Navarro, but really it's this show. | ||
They understand the diaspora listens to this show. | ||
Men and women throughout the world that have left mainland China that breathe the air of freedom in the West and want to return and make China free also. | ||
So we're going to get more into this. | ||
We take a short commercial break. | ||
The anniversary show, War Room Pandemic. | ||
We'll be back in a moment. | ||
unidentified
|
We will burn silver argon. We rejoice when there's no more. | |
Let's take down the CCP. | ||
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. | ||
Okay, you got Jack Posobiec from One American News. | ||
Remember, Jack is an expert in all things CCP, speaks perfect Mandarin. | ||
Naval Intelligence Officer Rahim Kassam has been worth studying this for the last couple of years. | ||
This morning is going to have a bigger impact. | ||
All the stuff that's going around the impeachment, all important, what's happening here, but trust me, The Chinese Communist Party thinks they're winning here. | ||
They just had to throw down, with all the problems they've got in their economy, with all the problems they have underneath, and they're tremendous problems, and the CCP has much less of a grip than the media puts on. | ||
But Posobiec and Rahim, here's what's stunning. | ||
Not one commentator in the media. | ||
That's one of the reasons I'm sanctioned, right? | ||
Remember, I think I'm the only... I gotta check, I think they tell me I'm the only civilian ever to be sanctioned by the regime that's not in government. | ||
Everybody else had left the government right then. | ||
It's part of the work I did in the campaign in 16 to make this an issue and at the beginning of the thing to kind of set the thing in motion, but it's principally about this. | ||
They want to shut this show down because they understand this show reaches the deplorables and reaches Lao Bai Jing. | ||
What's amazing is not one commentator so far has come out and said, he didn't say no apology about Wuhan, no even indication That they're the railhead of the problem. | ||
And remember, for people who are sophisticated and know this, and now Daily Mail and all those people that mocked us early on, that we said, hey, it came out of Wuhan, they're all coming to the conclusion because the Intel community is coming to that conclusion, right? | ||
You know, not one of them, not one of them has come forward today and said, hey, he hasn't said anything about the Wuhan lab. | ||
The whole railhead of this problem, what we have 25 million people I think today officially have been infected with the CCP virus, with COVID-19. | ||
I think we have over 400,000 dead. | ||
Now you can argue, hey, they would have died anyway. | ||
Look, that's for another day. | ||
My point is, the fact is you can't say this has not changed world history. | ||
It eviscerated the economies. | ||
Donald Trump was at that time primed to win, I think, close to a landslide. | ||
I actually believe he won in a landslide and then it was stolen, but I mean there the competition was going to get eviscerated. | ||
He was on a roll. | ||
He just signed the trade deal with them. | ||
The economy was hitting on all cylinders, right? | ||
And then this thing struck. | ||
So today you don't hear crickets from any of the people in business. | ||
Remember Wall Street, the giant corporations, the tech oligarchs, they're all business partners. | ||
They like the way the system works. | ||
This is not a conspiracy. | ||
The great reset is to reset the globalization project that Xi talked about on January 19th of 2017, two days before Trump came up. | ||
He laid out the whole globalization project and how the world was a beneficiary of that. | ||
That was led by China, led by the CCP. | ||
And here's the thing about the Wuhan virus. | ||
They tried to cover it in the Daily Mail and said, well, Bannon called it early on, but because, you know, all of his issues with immigration and all this stuff, you know, people think it's racist. | ||
No, it is racist not to call the CCP. | ||
It's the Chinese people that bore the brunt of that. | ||
We still have no earthly idea the suffering and the deaths that were in Hubei province of Wuhan. | ||
The Chinese people have been the brunt of this. | ||
This is not the Chinese people and this is not the China virus. | ||
This is the CCP virus. | ||
So Jack Vosobug, I want to put in context his speech today because this was a throwdown, right? | ||
We're not going to reset relationships, right? | ||
We're right and you're wrong. | ||
We don't want to hear anymore talk about genocide. | ||
Sounds like a personal problem. | ||
And I haven't seen the Arab nations. | ||
Where are all the Muslim nations? | ||
They're so, you know, the travel ban to stop radical jihadis from coming in here because you didn't have the systems in place to really screen people appropriately and we put it in in four years, you got no problem that Biden wants to undo right away. | ||
Where are all the Arab nations? | ||
Where are the Muslim nations about the genocide of the poor Uyghurs in Western China? | ||
Where is that? | ||
So Vesovic, this thing right here, ladies and gentlemen, this is what your life is going to be unless these people are confronted. | ||
The Chinese Communist Party are the engine that drives the globalization project. | ||
Davos is high church, okay? | ||
That's high church. | ||
And right now, they think they're on the march, and the populist nationalist movement in Western Europe and the United States, Donald Trump's gone, Salvini's gone, Le Pen didn't win, Nigel Farage is gone, all of them are gone, right? | ||
So you've had a senior time. | ||
Let's start with Posobiec, then I want to come back to Rahim. | ||
Posobiec, thoughts? | ||
Well, Steve, you also heard, I almost slipped of the tongue, Biden, right? | ||
It's Xi Jinping. | ||
Whenever Biden speaks, you hear Xi Jinping's voice come out. | ||
It's that Xi Jinping said, we cannot build small circles and return to the Cold War. | ||
This Xiao Yaojun in Chinese, what he's saying is there can no longer be regional alliances. | ||
There can no longer be nation states. | ||
He's calling for one world, one shared humanity. | ||
And look, the Marxists told us that they were going to have, what do they call it? | ||
The long march through the institutions. | ||
That was their policy from the 60s. | ||
They certainly were able to achieve that here in the United States in the West, and they absolutely achieved it on the global stage, driven by the CCP. | ||
When he's talking about being subservient to the UN, to the WHO, we already know that these organizations, these institutions have been compromised by the CCP and they are going to go along with it. | ||
I believe you had an interesting phrase, the running dog of Xi Jinping and the CCP, right? | ||
For the WHO. | ||
What's going on now is Xi Jinping is exerting his authority. | ||
This is very, you know, socialism with Chinese characteristics. | ||
They are using their language of saying, we cannot do these things. | ||
We cannot have any separation from the one goal. | ||
We cannot have any separation into small circles. | ||
There is one way forward and I, Xi Jinping, as the addressee, right? | ||
The addressee of the entire keynote of Davos and the one who is going to lead humanity into the future. | ||
Not America, not Europe, but me. | ||
unidentified
|
Bye. | |
Yeah, by the way, I just want to foreturn to Rahim, you know, I don't buy the socialism argument. | ||
This is state capitalism merged with big government for an authoritarian. | ||
This is what Tom Friedman, they get dewey-eyed when they think about this, because this is how they solve the problem of systemic racism. | ||
This is going to solve the problem of climate change. | ||
All of their big efforts, you know, Friedman said one time, he wrote an article, if we could only have the way the Chinese rule for like 48 hours, we could solve all our problems, right? | ||
They want this model, that's why, why do you think you see the tech oligarchs shutting guys down and nobody blowing back on them? | ||
Why do you see the corporations deplatforming people? | ||
Why do you think the banks are debanking Trump and his followers? | ||
This is all state capitalism. | ||
Ain't socialism, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
State capitalism. | ||
State-controlled capitalism. | ||
Okay? | ||
Where you're just a cog in the wheel. | ||
You're just a serf. | ||
Every person on here under 35 years old, particularly if you listen to the podcast, because I know we've got a big younger audience in the podcast, understand something. | ||
The slave labor allowed by Xing in China, that model makes you a serf. | ||
You're nothing more than a Russian serf. | ||
You're better fed, better educated, you've got more toys to play with. | ||
You're a serf. | ||
You don't own anything and you're not going to own anything. | ||
Yeah, Jack. | ||
Remember, it was the World Economic Forum that said, you'll own nothing and you'll be happy. | ||
You'll be happy. | ||
By the way, if you kowtow here, just like with Biden, if you give up and surrender, you can have unity, right? | ||
We can be united. | ||
All they want you to do, and we're going to show later in the show, the struggle session that Rand Paul had with George Stephanopoulos. | ||
They're putting you through struggle sessions right now. | ||
Raheem Kassam. | ||
Couple of things I want to recap because you glossed over them very, very quickly. | ||
number one I think it bears mentioning it bears repeating again and again that President Trump destroyed the Islamic State brought Arab nations Muslim nations to peace with Israel and America hasn't had a jihadist inspired terrorist attack in goodness knows how long right I mean I should know I wrote the book on it I was in San Bernardino when the attack happened on that day I have | ||
literally studied this entire life with one sweep of the pen almost In the first year of his administration, President Trump annihilated the jihadist Islamic terror threat. | ||
And broke the physical caliphate with Madison in the army. | ||
Brought Iran to its knees. | ||
It was extraordinary. | ||
We will look back at that. | ||
And just think that is just an amazing achievement. | ||
So I think that bears stressing. | ||
The audience must get out there. | ||
And I might actually write about this and summarize that so that they have something to share on this. | ||
The other thing I think, you talked about struggle sessions and whatnot. | ||
I am starting to get reports that actually people who supported the president are losing their TSA pre-check now as well. | ||
So we're going to be looking into that as well. | ||
That's something to watch out for as well. | ||
Wow. | ||
Wow. | ||
But lastly, I wanted to comment on this class... For you guys that fly commercial, that's a problem. | ||
On this class... I just get into a catapult. | ||
On this class system thing, right? | ||
And the class... At least we can fly to China! | ||
Kaboom! | ||
Jack for Server gets it. | ||
Okay, so Tablet Magazine, I think, actually has a really interesting article about the new class system, and that's effectively what we're talking about here. | ||
That's why the Washington Post people get Uh, all, all, all, uh, you know, doughy-eyed over, over Xi Jinping. | ||
It's why the big tech people went and happily stood with Xi Jinping and had this confidence, all of this. | ||
And what it is, ladies and gentlemen, is it's technocratic totalitarianism. | ||
It's technocratic totalitarianism. | ||
And why is it? | ||
What is that? | ||
That is a new class system. | ||
You have to understand that the, the ruling classes, the elites, were never happy with you getting a slice of the action. | ||
They were never happy with the evolution of democracy down to you. | ||
They really hate localism, because actually what localism does is it takes power away from them and puts it back in your hands. | ||
What this is, is it's the class system of yesteryear, but without the preppy Georgetown clubs, without the culture, without the intelligence and intellectualism, without the debate, without the philosophy, it's rules-based and science-based, but actually As we know, and we're going to play from Fauci's interview this weekend, it's not science-based. | ||
What it is, is it's a science of agreement within a small cabal of people, right? | ||
And that is technocratic totalitarianism. | ||
By the way, Richard Hodgson, all the experts on Morning Joe were dead wrong. | ||
She was in your face. | ||
Biden's going to have to respond to this. | ||
It can't just be Jake Sullivan and Tony Blinken. | ||
The President of the United States is going to have to come up And show us he's not Neville Chamberlain. | ||
You cannot kowtow to the Chinese Communist Party. | ||
Posobiec, give us your coordinates, how people get to you. | ||
I know you're going to have a lot to say today about Xi. | ||
Yeah, catch me at, of course, on Twitter, at Jack Posobiec, J-C-K-P-O-S-O-B-I-E-C, when they're not censoring me for stating accurate facts about the Washington Post. | ||
I'm also up on Rumble now, so if you are on the Rumble app, I really like it. | ||
It's a great alternative to YouTube. | ||
For those of you that aren't using that, you've got to go to Rumble. | ||
Okay, short commercial break. | ||
Passover, thank you. | ||
We'll have you back this evening, hopefully, to talk about the Mandate of Heaven. | ||
Kelly Ward, next, from Arizona. | ||

The epidemic is a demon, and we cannot let this demon hide. | ||
War Room. | ||
Pandemic. | ||
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
OK, from Davos in Switzerland and Beijing about the geopolitics of your life in this nation's life. | ||
We're now going to go down to back to the desert of Arizona. | ||
We're going to also go up to the high plains of Wyoming and the mountains of Wyoming in a minute. | ||
There is major political news happening over the weekend. | ||
I want to start with a hero to many, many people. | ||
And in fact, if there hadn't been a technical screw-up, she would have been a sitting U.S. | ||
Senator. | ||
She would have beaten John McCain in the primary back in 2016. | ||
Dr. Kelly Ward joins us. | ||
She just won re-election as the head of the GOP in the state of Arizona. | ||
And I think your first move... By the way, Dr. Ward, my staff tells me it's your birthday, so I want to be the first. | ||
Thank you so much for getting up early in the morning out there in the desert Arizona, and I want to be the first. | ||
To wish you a happy 39th birthday. | ||
So thank you for joining us here on War and Pandemic. | ||

It's great to be with you, Steve. | |
Yeah, I didn't realize this weekend what it really means to the Republican Party and to the America First movement. | ||
I had not really realized that this was the first race that President Trump endorsed in since he left the White House. | ||
And this is really a shot across the bow to these Slimy insiders on both sides of the aisle. | ||
Arizona is an America First state. | ||
We are not going back to the dark days before Trump. | ||
We are going to fight for what we believe in and we've got leaders in place to make it happen. | ||
Kelly, so let's talk about that. | ||
The first act you guys did was to, and I thought it was stunning, you actually moved to censure Cindy McCain for her efforts, but more importantly, Doug Ducey. | ||
And Doug Ducey is a guy, I want you to describe what he did in this whole process of, and by the way, Maricopa County, you're still suing each other about trying to pick a consultant to give a fair forensic audit of what happened out there. | ||
Doug Ducey's political career, I told people, I think ended this weekend. | ||
He's not going to be able to run for Senate. | ||
He thinks he's going to be President of the United States one day. | ||
Doug Ducey, that's all done. | ||
You just got censured by the Republican Party for your actions to fail to really constitutionally go through and find out exactly what happened in Arizona. | ||
So tell us what you did and what the people out there did to Ducey and McCain. | ||
unidentified
|
Well, you know, the way the censure process, it's a resolution, and in our state, in our state party, every resolution that any state committeeman brings forward goes to a resolutions committee, but it's still required to meet, to be brought to the entire body. | |
And so those resolutions were brought up, they were fiercely debated, and the censure resolutions for Governor Ducey, for Cindy McCain, and for Jeff Flake all passed. | ||
The body of the Republican Party here wants to have a mechanism, just like across the country, because these censures aren't just happening in Arizona, they're happening across the country. | ||
The people that say they're Republicans are not listening to the actual Republicans on the ground. | ||
The people who knock on doors, the people who make phone calls, the people who pass out their literature, the people who get them elected. | ||
And so when they've exhausted every other mechanism by calling their office, by trying to set up an appointment, by sending them an email, by handwriting a letter longhand and sending it to them and getting no reply, this is where we end up. | ||
And I think that it's very important that those so-called Republicans, like Liz Cheney and Mitt Romney and Governor Ducey, Doug Ducey, that they actually listen to the people on the ground. | ||
Rather than dismissing all of us, and belittling all of us, and pretending as though our voice and our votes don't matter. | ||
I think once we fix this Dominion machine issue, as well as all of the other irregularities, abnormalities, mistakes, and outright fraud in our election process, we are going to see a whole new day in who actually gets to be our voice, who is entrusted with being our voice at every level of government. | ||
OK, by the way, I think the censure against Sadie McCain kills any possibility she would be confirmed by the Senate as far as being the ambassador to the court of St. | ||
James, which is the most, you know, most prestigious ambassadorship to the United Kingdom, which they've offered her efforts out there. | ||
unidentified
|
You would hope that. | |
Go ahead. | ||
unidentified
|
But remember, remember, that's a Biden appointment. | |
And he probably loves that Republicans told Cindy McCain how they feel. | ||
And we'll utilize that. | ||
I mean, nothing's more infuriating than watching the mainstream media pretend that people who have never been to a Republican Party of Arizona event, at least in the decade that I've been in place, people like Cindy McCain, Jeff Lake, he's. | ||
He's shown up, not any time recently, but he's lurked around outside but was too afraid to come in. | ||
And Governor Ducey chose to go to the Biden inauguration, but not to the Republican Party of Arizona's one and only annual meeting that's statutorily required. | ||
That tells you something about Republicans, some Republicans. | ||
The Senate trial, MSNBC, and we'll talk more about this in the second hour, Rahim and myself, MSNBC had a special on last night with Ari Melber, who I think is the smartest guy they've got over there, and a hammer. | ||
That one hour special shows you what the Democrats have in store, and if people think And people are advising President Trump, they think it's going to be some esoteric debate around due process in the Constitution. | ||
Just don't listen to us, just watch MSNBC, because they're coming with something totally different. | ||
I mean, they are coming all in, essentially, if you heard some of the people last night, to basically make him an accessory to murder. | ||
I mean, this is brutal. | ||
I mean, they came in guns blazing last night. | ||
We're going to put clips of it, hopefully, in the afternoon show. | ||
People have to get focused. | ||
Kelly, I know that in Maricopa County they're out there for this forensic audit. | ||
I understand there's still a lot at play in Arizona and people are still furious about the November 3rd election. | ||
We're not going to give it up. | ||
But what would be your recommendation of what the people in Arizona, what the MAGA people, the Republicans, the people that back President Trump, What do they want to see in this Senate trial? | ||
If you had to take a canvas of your people today, do they want to see some quick and dirty thing by Lindsey Graham where he argues some esoteric part of the Constitution about due process? | ||
Or would they want the President to throw down hard? | ||
Throw down on Wisconsin, Georgia, Arizona, And go through literally state by state and make the case of why this was voter fraud, ballot fraud, and election fraud. | ||
What do the people out there want? | ||
What do they want to do? | ||
unidentified
|
Well, the America First Republicans want to see real fight. | |
We don't want to see this fake lot. | ||
We don't want to see the fake fighting. | ||
We've seen it for too long, where politicians tell us one thing. | ||
They pretend that they want this fight. | ||
They go and they just barely slap at each other. | ||
And then they make a political commercial to try to further their own career. | ||
We're fighting for something bigger than ourselves. | ||
They're fighting for themselves. | ||
That's got to stop. | ||
We have to expose the corruption. | ||
We have to weed it out. | ||
And President Trump showed us how to do it. | ||
Now, those Republicans that are in the Senate, that they're willing to even take this up, number one, is ridiculous. | ||
But if it's taken up, then they need to fight. | ||
They need to fight hard. | ||
And they need to put an end to this madness. | ||
Kelly, how do people get more access to you? | ||
Because I know people are very focused on what's happening in Arizona. | ||
What's your coordinates on social media? | ||
unidentified
|
Yep, at Kelly Ward AZ. | |
Kelly with an I. I care about the people. | ||
So Kelly, Ward, AZ, come and find me. | ||
Love to have you follow me. | ||
And remember, my election signals that we are an America first Arizona. | ||
We're not going back to the dark days before Trump. | ||
And we're going to win and win big. | ||
Okay, right before you go, I want to say this. | ||
If President Trump had not gotten very bad advice and McCain begged him for that endorsement, Kelly Ward would be in the United States Senate. | ||
Kelly, I believe you beat McCain in 16 in the primary in June on game day, right? | ||
Didn't you win the game day vote? | ||
unidentified
|
I did. | |
I won the election day vote, but I didn't win those early votes, those early ballots, those mail-ins. | ||
Because of the endorsement. | ||
President Trump was misled by people around him at the time not to back Kelly Ward and because McCain came and begged and he was going to have total fealty and he would be a team player and all that. | ||
So all the McCain people that rip on Trump, McCain would not have even been in the Senate. | ||
First off, he begged Palin back in, you know, six years before. | ||
He said, you know, we're going to build the dang wall, all that. | ||
He always being tough in election time. | ||
Then he came and literally begged Trump for an endorsement because Kelly Ward was going to smoke him because Kelly Ward was a fire-breathing Tea Party populist that put America first. | ||
So Dr. Ward, I can't tell you how overjoyed we are that you won re-election as the GOP chair out there. | ||
You're a major force in American politics and we look forward to seeing you in the future. | ||
unidentified
|
All right. | |
Won't give up, won't give in. | ||
See you soon. | ||
And happy birthday. | ||
Okay, Rahim, this is how they try to rewrite history. | ||
All the McCain people know. | ||
He begged Trump, he begged Trump for the endorsement. | ||
If he didn't have Donald Trump's endorsement, he wouldn't have been in the U.S. | ||
Senate and he wouldn't have been able to stab Trump in the back on the Obamacare situation. | ||
And his high and mighty going over to Europe and all the stuff on NATO, NATO's better, more robust, Because of what Trump did of making, basically, the countries of Europe start to pay for their defense and start to have interoperability, more joint exercises. | ||
McCain was a disaster as a senator. | ||
Absolutely a war hero. | ||
Navy pilot, war hero, not even a question about his heroism, okay? | ||
And his leadership. | ||
So, a couple of things. | ||
Number one, you're right on the NATO stuff especially. | ||
a hero. However, the politics are very different and he begged Trump for the endorsement. Don't ever forget that. Kelly Ward would have been the United States Senate. Raheem. So a couple of things. Number one, you're right on the NATO stuff especially. I mean you see and hear the Biden regime now, you know, saber-rattling again over Russia and so on and so forth. I think Mitt Romney was on the television this weekend talking about Russia again. | ||
No mention of China or the Chinese Communist Party, of course. | ||
Nothing in the inaugural address. | ||
Yeah. | ||
But even if you don't subscribe to our view that Russia is kind of this... It's a sideshow. | ||
A sideshow to a sideshow. | ||
An economy the size of Italy. | ||
Of New York State, yes. | ||
Right. | ||
And demographic implosion. | ||
You've seen it. | ||
You went over and covered the Ukraine. | ||
You know that Ukraine's a sideshow to a sideshow. | ||
But even if you don't necessarily believe that and you want to see the United States being more, you know, belligerent or whatever, however you want to describe it, there's no doubt that it's actually President Trump's work enforcing NATO member countries to pay their own share and reinforce and reinvigorate that alliance that has enabled it to stand firmly. | ||
Right? | ||
And this is what Joe Biden... I mean, Joe Biden is standing on the shoulders of a giant. | ||
He is standing on President Trump's achievement. | ||
You look at the vaccination stuff that they're talking about now, and you look at the COVID policy that they released. | ||
There's nothing in Joe Biden's COVID document that is any different from what the White House policy is. | ||
They said Hunter's advising him over the weekend. | ||
They're challenging him. | ||
The bombers are flying over Taiwan in the order they've given us to get the carrier battle groups out of the Taiwan Straits and out of the South China Sea. | ||
Remember, we took over, Biden's pivot to Asia, we've stepped into a mess. | ||
It was Trump that got the battle groups back in there, because the South China Sea being so central to the world economy, right? | ||
For everybody that thinks that Trump's a reactionary, anything but. | ||
That's why Xi is so upset. | ||
Okay, I tell you what, we're going to go to Wyoming. | ||
Because if you can take down the Cheneys, you can take down anything. | ||
And the people in Wyoming are now standing up for what they believe in. | ||
What Liz Cheney does, she's under tremendous pressure here in Washington D.C., not enough pressure because McCarthy's not thrown in yet, to remove her from leadership because of her leading, being one of the leaders in the impeachment movement. | ||
We would not be here and they would not have the cover of the most bipartisan impeachment ever if Liz Cheney had not led that effort and taken such glee And throwing down on President Trump in the closing days of his first term. | ||
So we're going to come back. | ||
We're going to go to Taylor Allred, who is at the Lincoln County party out there that has just censured Liz Cheney and called for her resignation. | ||
Also, there's going to be a huge rally on Thursday with our friend, Congressman Matt Gaetz, who's going out to Wyoming. | ||
We're going to talk all about that with Ocean Andrews. | ||
Other people are going to come back. | ||
We're going to go to Wyoming next on War Room Pandemic. | ||
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. | ||
Just want everybody out there to know we have not forgotten about the steel. | ||
We're tying this into the Senate trial. | ||
We're going to get to more of that in the 11 o'clock hour. | ||
We've got a lot to go through. | ||
A lot of wood to chop here, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
Okay, now I want to go to Wyoming. | ||
It's about holding people accountable, and they're holding the Cheney's accountable out in Wyoming. | ||
I want to start with Taylor Allred from the Lincoln County Republican Party Assemblyman. | ||
Taylor, walk us through exactly what you guys have passed out there, and what's your attitude right now about Liz Cheney as your congressman? | ||
unidentified
|
Well, Steve, thanks for having me on. | |
I know you had Chairman Kerenti from Carbon County on last week, and he and I worked together on a resolution of censure, and in our meeting on Saturday when we presented this, Our committee here in Lincoln County didn't think that went far enough. | ||
Just censoring her was not enough and they insisted that we add another line in it actually calling for her to resign her position. | ||
I've never seen people so fired up as what they are now. | ||
They are mad. | ||
They're upset with Liz. | ||
The fact that she Stated she was going to vote for impeachment without seeing any evidence, and then she followed through with that. | ||
If that does not represent the people in Wyoming, in my inbox, my phone has been ringing off the hook. | ||
People just upset that she is not representing Wyoming. | ||
Wyoming is a MAGA state. | ||
Put America first. | ||
And she's out there serving her own purposes, trying to Trying to buddy up with the, with the, with the Bidens and get herself in, in good graces with the Democrats, which is, is we all know that's never going to happen. | ||
She can, she can do that all, all she wants. | ||
It's never going to do her any good. | ||
She's betraying the people of Wyoming that she's supposed to represent. | ||
And they're mad that they are upset. | ||
And, uh, our, our meeting, they were, they, they were out for blood. | ||
So we passed that resolution. | ||
Another resolution calling on our senators to do everything they can to put down this impeachment sham. | ||
Yeah, people of Wyoming are not happy with our representation right now. | ||
Let me ask you just two things. | ||
Did she reach out, or any of the people, I think they have a thing called Team Cheney out there. | ||
Did either Congressman Cheney or anybody from Team Cheney reach out to anybody at Lincoln County or Johnson County, any of the other counties? | ||
Did they reach out beforehand and get your input about what they, when she laid out her case, just to get some input from the folks out in Wyoming? | ||
Was there any contact? | ||
whatsoever that you know of that either she made personally, her office made, or Team Chaney made out there? | ||
unidentified
|
Not only did they not reach out, but I know they received hundreds of phone calls and they stopped answering the phone. | |
When you called, voicemail boxes were full. | ||
Her website came down for a while. | ||
Not only was there no response, They stopped taking those calls. | ||
I know several people that were hardcore supporters of hers, that campaigned for her, that were very much in her camp, that are the same as everybody else in Wyoming. | ||
They are upset that they've abandoned her. | ||
They want nothing to do with her. | ||
At this point, I do not see how she has any political future in Wyoming. | ||
Last question, you actually added, you said at the time you were going to do a censure like Jory Carenti and the folks in Carbon, but the people demanded they add a phrase to have her resign today. | ||
Do you think that after her censure, I understand that's probably coming up on the 6th or 7th of February, they're going to have a state meeting, do you believe at the state level they will back your call for her to resign? | ||
unidentified
|
You know, if they're listening to the people in their counties, I think they will. | |
I've had several other counties reach out to me since Saturday asking for a copy of what we passed. | ||
They're interested in passing that in their counties as well in preparation of the state meeting. | ||
Taylor, how do people get access to you? | ||
We're going to have your chairman on on Thursday from the county before this rally. | ||
Talk to us about how can people get access to you. | ||
We'll put it up on our live stream. | ||
We'll put it up on screen. | ||
unidentified
|
What's your social media coordinates? | |
Well, I'm off Facebook. | ||
I never was on Twitter. | ||
The best way to reach me is just through the Wyoming.GOP website. | ||
Wyoming.GOP? | ||
Okay. | ||
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
And it's listed under leadership. | ||
unidentified
|
You can find everybody in the state. | |
Thank you very much. | ||
Taylor's calling in from Lincoln County. | ||
Thank you very much, sir. | ||
Real quickly, I want to now pivot. | ||
There's going to be a rally. | ||
The one and only Matt Gaetz is going out there on Thursday, I think to Cheyenne, the state capital. | ||
They're going to have a rally, an anti-Liz Cheney rally, or event. | ||
I want to bring in now Ocean Andrews. | ||
Ocean, we've got about two minutes here, but I want to keep you over the break. | ||
Walk us through, how did you come up with this idea, and what's going to happen on Thursday? | ||
unidentified
|
Response to... | |
I'll tell you what, Ocean, start from the top, because I'm not sure if you're going to be able to hear me. | ||
unidentified
|
because we had a technical problem to start at the top to tell us how you came with this idea and what are you guys going to do? All right, thank you, Steve. This was really in response to an outcry from my constituents about the poor representation we currently have in Washington. | |
I've been getting emails from my district that were clearly, you know, organic. It wasn't something from, you know, a form somewhere that got sent to me wanting to do something about this, wanting A recall provision in our elections wanting a requirement that people from who are running to represent us at the federal level have to live in Wyoming. | ||
And unfortunately, those are things we can't do. | ||
And so I wanted to do something for everyone who was concerned about this. | ||
And the most logical thing to do was to invite someone to come for a speaking event in Wyoming and talk to the people who are looking for someone to better represent their views in Congress and show them that there is someone like Matt Gaetz out there that does represent them. | ||
Ocean, hang on for one second. | ||
We're going to take a short commercial break. | ||
Pay some bills here when we come back. | ||
Ocean Andrews from out in Wyoming. | ||
They're having an event out there. | ||
Matt Gaetz, the fire-breathing populist, is going to come out there from Florida, talk to him about Liz Cheney and about what it means to represent people. |
