Well the virus has now killed more than a hundred people in China and new cases have been confirmed around the world.
You don't want to frighten the American public.
France and South Korea have also got evacuation plans.
But you need to prepare for and assume.
Broadly warning Americans to avoid all non-essential travel to China.
That this is going to be a real serious problem.
France, Australia, Canada, the US, Singapore, Cambodia, Vietnam, the list goes on.
Health officials are investigating more than a hundred possible cases in the US.
Germany, a man has contracted the virus.
The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide.
Japan, where a bus driver contracted the virus.
Coronavirus has killed more than 100 people there and infected more than 4,500.
anthony fauci
We have to prepare for the worst, always, because if you don't and the worst happens, War Room.
unidentified
Pandemic.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
Going after Susan Collins and spitting on all of us.
If this is a problem for a politician to give the speech that President Trump did, well then Kamala Harris has a real problem because she actively engaged in bailing out rioters.
I don't want Donald Trump to win.
They don't They fear his rallies.
They fear that 74.5 million people voted for Donald Trump.
That's what's really going on here.
He was monitoring the Proud Boys and other crazy websites, and he knew they were going to come to Washington with violence on their mind, and he encouraged it.
That is beyond bizarre.
This is not evidence.
This is a liberal democratic novel being presented as evidence.
You have Republican counterparts who are still unmoved, even after all of that laid out in plain sight.
What do you say to your Republican counterparts who will not vote to impeach despite everything that we saw and that you all experienced?
There are moments in American history that are not partisan ones, that are moral ones.
This is a moral moment.
What happened in our country will be talked about for generations to come.
And if we ignore this, if we excuse it, if we do nothing, we invite this horror back on our country again.
steve bannon
Okay, live from the militarily occupied Washington, D.C., and I had an opportunity last night, we'll get into it later, there's a special going to be on One American News tonight.
Stephen K. Bannon, Mike Lindell, that we did some work on last night, actually got a chance to go around and see the entire fencing around the Capitol.
It's a disgrace, the razor wire, etc., but that's what they're trying to do.
You're in the War Room.
It is Thursday, the 11th of February, the Year of Our Lord 2021, now with 35 million downloads and, you know, John Fredericks live everywhere.
Real America's Voice.
Want to thank the team in Denver.
Always there to assist us.
Dish on Dish on Comcast.
Everywhere you can get this.
GNews, GTV throughout the world.
Audience only continues to metastasize.
Gets bigger every day.
I got Rahim to sign my wingman in the war room, and we got to Boris a packed show today.
It's Chinese New Year's, all that, but I gotta tell you, what is Lindsey Graham... First, Rahim, I'll bring Boris in.
What is Lindsey Graham whining about?
This is what we warn people about, right?
We're not wrong about this stuff.
We do this for a living.
We got the smartest guys around.
We reach out to those people.
We knew... What's he sitting there whining for on Hannity?
Oh, this is not rules of evidence.
This is all emotional.
It's all TV.
And who, and Lindsey, were you the guy that negotiated, or who, what lawyer, what one of the geniuses, was it Justin Clark or Lindsey Graham, what genius negotiated the structure of this?
And the last impeachment was, you know, they had opening arguments, went two hours, two hours, two hours of them, two hours of us, two and two, I believe.
Here, you got a full beatdown.
I don't know how many hours, and it's a made-for-TV, and all those conservative media out there saying, oh don't pay attention, it's not irrelevant, this is a joke, but wrong.
It's on broadcast television.
This is to put an indelible memory of what the Trump movement is going forward, but what the Trump presidency was.
Of course it's all lies and made up and they're connecting old speeches with other things and footage, but trust me, as a filmmaker and a guy that does television, it's powerful emotionally to low information voters.
People that are coming to this, instead of watching the soap operas or the game shows on broadcast television, they're watching this and they're trying to make it as compelling as possible.
It has no relationship with the truth because they don't care and the regulations are, this is It's not a court of law.
It is political theater.
And the Democrats, regardless if you hate them or not, all these guys on the right, they're smart and they're cunning.
How do you think they stole this election?
They're smart and they're cunning and they don't play by the rules.
Or as Raheem Kassam tells me, the Marquis of Queensberry.
I still stick with the Marquis of Queensberry.
But anyway, let's bring in an expert on this.
And the other thing is, where's the surrogate program?
It's just nobody out there.
I mean, a couple guys on Hannity, but that's not surrogates.
Surrogates are guys in the pit in MSNBC and CNN are going on broadcast and talking to people that you've got to convince.
The MAGA knows.
We're bringing Boris Epstein, Rand Sergius for us in 16 under the great Jason Miller, who is our comms director and one of the strategists on the 16 campaign.
Got Raheem and so guys, you know, I'm not one that likes to yell at the television screen, but this is getting quite frustrating and the MAGA The best days of MAGA are ahead of it.
We're winning.
We won on November 3rd.
We're never going to kowtow and say that they won.
They didn't win.
They stole it.
I don't care if they don't like it.
Okay?
I've seen the overwhelming evidence that Peter Navarro and Matt Brainerd and others have done.
Phil Klein.
And I'm not even into the machines, although I think the machines have got to be investigated tonight on One America News, I think at 8 o'clock.
I go head-to-head with Mike Lindell, we do like a game for it, break the whole thing apart, the two-hour film, and I push back on him with what Dominion Voting Systems are saying, what DHS have said, what other people have said, and let him defend it and let him talk about additional information he's going to put out there.
That's the whole machines thing.
And you got, you know, on Gateway Pundit, they broke a story this morning.
I think in New Hampshire, every Republican, you know, the machines have flipped there.
Clearly, I want to get back to game day voting on a physical ballot.
Get rid of all the machines, get rid of all the early voting, let's have a game day and show up.
So Boris, I know I'm kind of all over the map here, but it's increasingly frustrating and God, I pray, pray, pray that the President sees the light and at the last second Throws in Matt Gaetz and Rudy Giuliani and brings up Navarro's.
It's not too late to do it I think it's more than I think if you're not convinced by what they've done yesterday and get ready ladies and gentlemen They're gonna have more new videos.
They've got more people crying on TV.
They're gonna have more, you know poor Mike Pence, right?
They're trying to take all these establishment Republicans and in front of those Republican senators make them make them the victims of Trump and these unwashed You know insurrectionist domestic terrorists.
There's a direct connection ladies and gentlemen From what you're seeing in the well of the Senate.
And what you're seeing in those videos.
And the billboards in rural America, particularly in the South, that is the lives of others.
They want your neighbors.
And when you walk out with a ball cap, they're gonna want three months.
You know what?
I never trusted that guy.
He had those red ball caps on.
Had a red ball cap on.
Had a Trump sticker on.
Put his Trump thing on his thing.
raheem kassam
We have some breaking news.
unidentified
What's the breaking news?
raheem kassam
The Department of Justice is stating that Oath Keeper member Jessica Watkins said that she was awaiting direction from President Trump as far back as November regarding January the 6th in a text exchange with a co-defendant On December 29th, she said, we plan on going to D.C.
on the 6th because Trump wants all able-bodied patriots to come.
If Trump activates the Insurrection Act, I'd hate to miss it, end quote.
So today's narrative, you've got to understand, if this drops right before they start the thing again, it's intentional.
That's today's narrative.
So today's narrative, risible as it is, is going to be that people were waiting on Trump's instructions to act on January 6th.
But wait, wait, wait.
Go ahead.
There's a glimmer of hope in here if Trump's lawyers want to seize on it.
Which is to say that, hey, hold on a minute.
Now your claim is that people were waiting for instruction.
That instruction never came.
So your whole case falls apart on that.
steve bannon
The whole Insurrection Act, too, is not to have civilians.
Remember, we've mocked and ridiculed the Insurrection Act ever since the guy that I love, General Flynn, went on Lou Dobbs.
And I'll get into this in another show, because I've got to go through and walk you through exactly what happened, so everybody knows.
But it was General Flynn going on Lou Dobbs, saying, hey, we want to put the Insurrection Act in six counties in Georgia, and we want to send the National Guard or the Army in there, and we're going to seize the machines, and we're going to revote.
We're going to revote.
You're sitting there and I'm sitting there shocked.
I go, well, I guess that's the end of Georgia.
And the Georgia senators will tell you from that moment on, boom, the Insurrection Act was always crazy talk.
We mocked and ridiculed it every day.
Boris, I know I got to get you in here.
You've done this for a living.
You've been our surrogate.
You're the only guy I see on MSNBC getting beat up and punching back.
Come on, let's be fair.
boris epshteyn
Let's characterize it fairly, okay?
I'm not getting beat up.
unidentified
I'm engaged in a boxing match, okay?
boris epshteyn
That's what pugilists do.
raheem kassam
He didn't beat me up, Dad.
He didn't beat me up.
boris epshteyn
You're good.
steve bannon
You're good.
boris epshteyn
You know, listen, so here's the deal, guys.
Here's what I'm really disappointed in right now.
So you can see me, the screen on my side is frozen, so I cannot see our British friends effervescent outfit in what it is today.
I really need to start my day with that, and I look forward to Great to be with you, Steve.
Great to be with you, Rahim.
steve bannon
He took your guidance.
He dumped the L.L.
Bean look.
He's back to like an English professor.
raheem kassam
I'm also getting one of these Madonna headsets that Boris has.
unidentified
I love them.
boris epshteyn
What's he got going on?
Is there a card again?
What do we got today, Steve?
There's a thing.
steve bannon
He's got a pocket square.
Ferragamo pocket square.
There's a thing, he's got a pocket square.
raheem kassam
Ferragamo pocket square.
steve bannon
Church's tie.
unidentified
Yeah, thank you very much.
steve bannon
He's very awfully awfully this morning.
Boris, did your blood boil last night when you saw Lindsey Graham, of all people, saying, gosh, this is not like evidence, this is all hearsay upon hearsay, it's just a Democratic television thing.
Like he didn't know this was coming, Mr. Boris Epstein?
boris epshteyn
It's a good thing that I was smoking a cigar and having a little bit of scotch to relax myself, because otherwise I would have probably broken the TV I was watching.
It's just so maddening.
It is so maddening that these people from the conservative, quote-unquote, side of the aisle, right, who are supposed to be on our side, for weeks now have been saying, oh, no big deal, you know, we can work with the Democrats.
Democrats are nice.
They'll treat us nicely if we just appease them.
And what have I said probably a hundred times on this show now over the last several weeks?
Appeasement never works.
It's never worked in the history of the world.
It doesn't work with Democrats.
They're out for blood, and that's exactly what they're doing.
They told us what they were going to do.
Remember that special on MSNBC over two weeks ago now, about two weeks ago now, when they just played video after video after video, doctored video and all, to make President Trump look terrible?
That's all this is.
And then you got Mika Brzezinski talking to Cory Booker.
How could all Republican senators not vote to impeach?
And by the way, that's something very interesting.
Do you notice that the funny thing about Democrats, right?
They're not so smart.
You've got Andrea Mitchell.
She didn't know Macbeth.
And now the parlance by the Democrats, they're still saying, how can Republicans not vote to impeach?
Well, listen, dum-dums.
Impeachment already happened.
That happens in the House.
This vote is to convict.
Figure it out.
You're on the news.
It shouldn't be so hard.
steve bannon
Rahim, let's talk about, we've got about two minutes here.
boris epshteyn
Was that hot enough?
Am I too fired up?
steve bannon
Yeah, you're hot, you're coming in hot, which we need it.
But explain, I want to, this audience is sophisticated, you're a force multiplier.
By the way, to show what a force multiplier is, Dan Schultz, we're going to try to get Dan Schultz on later, you guys are tunning it into his site, and they have 120 Republicans, never Trumpers, have a Zoom call yesterday about them starting a third party.
You've already dropped the hammer.
Hey, when the War Room Posse is on it, the Republican Party is going to be taken over by the War Room Posse and the Deplorables and MAGA.
They're forming their own third party.
You don't have to spend your money because they're going to do it.
boris epshteyn
Is it going to be called the John Weaver Party?
raheem kassam
Well, they're forming their own party because the Lincoln Project has gone sideways, right?
Because they wanted to use the Lincoln Project as everything and then it transpires that actually they're involved, or at least one member of the Lincoln Project is involved in Did you see the report on that this morning?
It's super in-depth.
others appear to have at least had some semblance of knowledge about this in the last year and have hidden it. Did you report on that this morning? Did I see it? I wrote it last week.
steve bannon
Super in depth. I'll go with that quickly.
I want to get that up where we can get it.
We've got 30 seconds.
raheem kassam
AP has now showed not just how these guys must have had knowledge because they were repeatedly asked questions about it, but also, one thing we reported a couple of weeks back, how much money these guys have been taking in.
And where it's gone, because they have only spent about a quarter of all the multi, multi, tens of millions that they've raised.
Of course they need their own new party.
steve bannon
Okay.
Okay.
Hold on.
We're going to come back.
We're going to come back in a moment and we're going to discuss the information and psychological warfare that the War Room Posse is not going to bend to.
Okay.
It's coming from all directions.
Next, War Room Pandemic.
unidentified
The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide.
War Room.
Pandemic.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Banham.
steve bannon
Just want to make sure the audience knows something.
We're not we're pounding this and we're going to continue to pound it because this is saying the predicate for the resistance to the Biden administration.
Remember, if you speak the truth here and get the truth out on this platform in the well, the Senate is now picked up by broadcast television, which is a massive platform.
You're going to change the direction, the ability to resist, the ability to fight the radicalness of the Biden administration.
Everything from their confrontation or their non-confrontation of the Chinese Communist Party to everything they're doing at the border.
Look, there are crises building up right now.
We're gonna have a big, tough situation at the border.
We're gonna have a tough situation with the U.S.
dollar.
This whole, the way they're thinking of financing, The continuing situation with COVID, everything about vaccines, everything about how this is distributed, everything about the lockdowns, all of it is going to come down to does Joe Biden have political capital or not?
So I understand some of the audience saying, hey, you're going over.
Yes, please get the number two pencil.
And we're doing this for a reason.
The reason we're doing this is that this is going to drive the way that MAGA is thought of, the way that the America First Agenda is thought of, the deplorables are thought of, the ability to go forward, the toxicity.
They just fired the, I guess, the WWE wrestler that was part of this Lucas Films thing on Star Wars.
They fired her for some tweets she sent out, right?
I mean, they're trying to toxify, as we said, they're trying to toxify everything related to Trump.
Kate Hartson, who's the renowned editor and publisher over Hachette, got more number one bestsellers anywhere.
Hachette fires her.
Yeah, yeah, she got let go by the sheriff and she'd had Donald Trump.
And the word is, even though she's one of the most profitable parts of a publishing thing, and it's tough in the book business today, as you know, Rahim, they said, we don't care about the profitability, we're not touching any more books, anything related to Trump.
There's actually a word, because I talk to people all the time about the book publishing business, because you know we have a massive reading audience, that even Amazon and the warehouse of publishers, the guys that put the books up to get instantly published, that all may be pulled too.
boris epshteyn
Hey, Steve, who did you hear that from?
steve bannon
Yeah, I know, it's some absolute genius.
Also, Robert Kennedy Jr.
And look, I made sure the President saw him.
I'm not an anti-vaxxer, but there are tons of questions related to Wuhan, the virus, the biological weapon program, all of that, that have not been answered, haven't come close to being answered.
He's pulled down.
Now, yesterday, he's pulled down, I think, on Twitter.
And I think on YouTube.
LifeSite News last night gets pulled down on YouTube.
I think it's around the vaccines of COVID is the reason they're pulled down.
One of your things was pulled down.
raheem kassam
Did you see what happened to my thing?
It's unreal.
So I had it, remember before the election I had an article up called is mail-in ballot fraud real?
Evidence says yes.
And it's a thousand words and it goes through documents produced by the Government of the United Kingdom, the European Union's Transparency and Values Czar, the Council of Europe, different than the European Council if you can believe it, uh... the polish government and i just go through and quote that all of the a left-wing professor at the university of liverpool and i just go through and laid out and i tweeted out again yesterday because the house democrat impeachment managers
were claiming no evidence no evidence no evidence right over and over again i said hey if your president trump in your on the run up to an election the worst changed election the country's ever seen in terms of how quickly and how i'll handle the changes got in one of those major changes mail-in fraud also remain in balance you should absolutely be able to point to the fact that of the country's every other country that's a first date So I tweet it out,
And Twitter puts a shield in front of my tweet and says this tweet is, you cannot like it, you cannot retweet it because it may incite violence.
steve bannon
So Boris, given the fact that they're trying to shut down every different aspect of this, and from you out in the audience, understand unless the evidence is presented that this was stolen, right?
There'll be a very different arc to this movement going forward, right?
Movement's still got momentum, still winning, but you got to present that evidence in the biggest, you got to adjudicate that in the biggest platform you've got.
Boris, walk us through.
What do you think happens today?
And where do you think this thing goes from here?
boris epshteyn
I think today is going to be ugly.
Again, today is going to be ugly.
The Democrats are coming for blood.
The Democrats are coming full frontal assault.
They know that they have got the backup, as Rahim pointed out, from big tech.
They've got the backup from big media.
Steve, as you said, and some brilliant person must have told you this, that even Amazon now is pulling down self-publishing by conservatives.
We're joking around.
I told Steve that yesterday.
So, that's what's happening.
That's what's happening out there.
There's full censorship.
So the Democrats, they have a free hand.
They get to say and do whatever they want, and we are not apparently allowed to push back.
But now we have this opportunity in the Senate.
So once the Democrats are done with this eight-hour beatdown, which they actually expand and extend with motions and other things, once they're done with this two-day beatdown, then it's the defense team's turn.
unidentified
But that's going to happen on Friday and Saturday.
steve bannon
But hang on, I'll stick with today.
Particularly people, tell me about rules of evidence versus what they're seeing here.
This is made for TV, because it can be.
And their charging document, their pre-trial brief, They had a 50-page script.
I'm sitting there going, well I would make the cut here, that's what I would bring in.
You could see what they were doing.
They had media people write this, not lawyers.
So what do you anticipate?
How emotional do you think they're going to try to get today?
boris epshteyn
You know, something happened over the weekend.
I saw a clip of the one and only Brian Stelter, a.k.a.
Potato Head.
Oh, by the way, has a lot of sartorial issues himself.
If we could put up a picture, that'd be useful for the viewer to know what I'm talking about.
But Brian Stelter called the firing of Lou Dobbs consequence culture, not cancel culture.
Well, there he is.
There's the beautiful Brian Stelter.
No, and Raheem will understand this.
Look at the total lack of dimple there.
There's not even a tie.
raheem kassam
No, that is disqualifying.
You should not be allowed on television if you can't tie a tie.
boris epshteyn
That and the complete lack of a neck I think are totally disqualifying and you know I'm no Brad Pitt either but come on what are we doing here just can they find the guy's neck somewhere?
Anyway, what Stelter said is that this is a culture of consequence, consequence culture.
That's why Lou Dobbs got fired.
That's what the Democrats are doing.
This is one long re-education camp.
Put forward by the Democrats.
And they're trying to re-educate us.
And I'm not using that lightly.
I've lived in a country where you're not allowed to speak your mind.
I've lived in a country where I was afraid to tell my other little friends I was Jewish.
My parents told me, don't tell them you're Jewish.
Just say you're Russian like them.
I've lived in a country where there's no freedom.
And it is scary.
And that's what we are rolling toward.
Re-education.
Truth speak 1984 style control from the troika of Democrats big tech and big media and today's going to be another example of it made for TV videos Made for TV emotional moments people crying heroes being made evil, you know the devil being pointed out of course and in their mind, orange man, bad president Trump.
That is what's happening.
And you know what?
We've got to say this, right, Stephen Rahim?
We've been talking about it for weeks.
We told people this was coming.
This is what they're going to do.
This shouldn't be a surprise.
So for Lindsey Graham to act like he's surprised, yeah, I think it's a little bit disingenuous.
We've got to be honest, we've got to fight back, because if we don't fight back, this is our future.
Not just during this sham up and impeachment trial.
Every single day, every hour, this is what they're going to do to us.
Try to re-educate us.
steve bannon
This is why, and by the way, he walked Trump into a trap.
This phony that, oh, if you mention the F word, if you mention fraud, they're going to vote against you.
That's nonsense.
These guys voted twice, it's unconstitutional.
They're not going to, you know, I dare Cassidy at the end of the day to vote to convict him.
I dare the guys in North Dakota.
raheem kassam
He's setting himself up to do so though.
steve bannon
Let's go to Cassidy.
raheem kassam
He's doing a lot of interviews right now.
He's walking out there, he's talking to the cameras, he's talking to reporters in Washington D.C.
and he's giving every indication.
I mean, the descriptions of how he's behaving in the chamber right now are bizarre as well.
He's apparently pacing up and down at the back of the chamber, you know, wringing his hands.
I read one report that said he was moaning and groaning and watching some of the That's an attempt to influence the people around him.
steve bannon
Boris, what do you think about this?
Do you think Cassidy and McConnell continue to say you've got to vote your conscience?
Now there's articles I think in the Post saying he's not whipping a vote for Trump, he's letting guys be free agents.
Is there any possibility, you think, If you went in and hammered on Saturday, you had Gates, you had others, you had Tropis up in Wisconsin, you had Smith and Georgie, you really went in and took that six or eight hours and laid out the case of the overwhelming evidence, do you think there's any possibility you would have a break here to vote for conviction?
boris epshteyn
Well, see, the nature of a free option, right, is that it's a free option one way or another.
It looks like Cassidy was somehow turned just by the fact that the President's lawyers didn't do a great job on day one, and now he came out there and said, well, you know, the lawyers weren't that convincing, so now I voted against dismissal.
Well, Senator, it's about the Constitution.
This is unconstitutional.
That's what that vote was.
Not about whether you liked someone's suit or presentation.
What I'm saying is, to me, it's apparent that these senators are going to vote to convict or not, not based on the evidence, because we know there's no basis in law or fact here.
They're going to do it based on some emotional feeling that they have.
And that is extremely disappointing.
It's completely divorced from their relationship to their constituents.
The senators, the members of the House, all elected officials are supposed to represent their constituents.
But we don't have that here.
It is obvious that these people, up in their ivory tower, are just so upset with President Trump that they're going to vote based on some gut feeling.
steve bannon
Orange or man bad?
Raheem?
raheem kassam
This is DC 101, okay?
So Cedric Richmond, former representative, said of Bill Cassidy, he's weird, dude is weird, he's not what Louisiana is, he's not personable, he's not charismatic.
Fast forward to after what Bill Cassidy's been saying the last 24 hours, he's a profiling courage.
steve bannon
That's DC.
raheem kassam
Cedric Richmond.
steve bannon
Okay, Boris, give me your coordinates, people can follow you during the day for the trial, we're gonna have you back on at 5 tonight.

Okay, we're gonna take a short commercial break.
Remember, One American News tonight, 8 o'clock, 3-hour special.
The film, and it's broken down like game film, Mike Lindell, Stephen K. Bannon.
We'll be back in War Room in a minute.
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.
I've heard a lot about my vote yesterday regarding the constitutionality of the proceedings.
First, let's be clear what the vote was about.
It was whether or not it is constitutional to impeach a president who has left office.
The House managers quoted the Constitution, conservative jurists, including the co-founder of the Federalist Society, our founding fathers, the Federalist Papers, and different documents that influenced the writing of the Constitution.
They made it clear it's constitutional.
They did such a great job that the president's lawyers got up and said, wow, they did a great job.
We, the president's attorneys, are changing our strategy.
And then they spent two hours talking about everything but this issue, except for maybe five minutes.
They effectively conceded the point.
Now, before you disagree, I ask you to go on C-SPAN and listen to the argument yourself and come to your own conclusion.
We put the links on my Facebook page.
By the way, I've also learned since yesterday that there are those who think that I should put President Trump above the constitution.
That's not conservatism.
That is not Republicanism.
And I reject it.
I'm a constitutional conservative who took an oath to support and defend the constitution.
I take that oath seriously.
Thank you.
And God bless the United States of America.
steve bannon
Okay, let's walk through that, what that is.
More information warfare.
raheem kassam
So that's Cassidy trying to get ahead of what's clearly going to be a backlash for him on this.
It's grotesque, if you ask me.
It sounds like every Lincoln Project-type conservative that you speak to in Washington D.C.
You know, they'll happily hold the Constitution up with one hand and stab you in the back with the other.
It's a sign that Cassidy is actually now trying to influence people his way, not just take the vote differently himself, but influence people his way.
He says he's posted links on his Facebook page now to try and convince people of his perspective.
Remember, he was one of the ones that originally voted on that first Rand Paul thing to say, hey, this is not constitutional.
Now he's saying that the House impeachment managers, the Democrats, Raskin, Swalwell, Neguse, all of those, that they convinced him.
Well I want to ask every person from his state, Louisiana.
steve bannon
A great state, Louisiana.
raheem kassam
I want to ask every single person in Louisiana right now who's watching this, or send this to your friends, and ask them if you want a senator Who can be convinced by Mr Farty Pants who has been sleeping with a Chinese spy.
Is that the kind of senator?
steve bannon
That's Swalwell.
raheem kassam
That's Swalwell?
steve bannon
Yep.
raheem kassam
Is that the kind of sentence you want?
And I have Senator Cassidy's phone number up here, if anybody would like it.
The office phone line for Senator Cassidy is 202-224-5824.
202-224-5824.
And I think... I mean, see, all of these people are operating in this... in this... in this... kind of... we'll talk to... What do you want them to say when they call?
I want them to say good morning.
I want them to say we disagree with you.
I want them to say here's the reasons why.
I want them to ask if he's even looked at any of the evidence as it pertains to the things that we've talked about about the fraud over the last couple of months and I want them to ask specifically how is it that you've been, I don't know how long he's been a senator, but how is it that you're a member of the United States Senate
Last week you voted on constitutionality, you voted one way, and after a few hours of arguments by Eric Swalwell, you changed your mind.
That, to me, is deeply disturbing.
steve bannon
It's not even an argument.
It's just emotional pathos.
Just these videos and this stuff that's not at any legal level and it's just a complete attack on your constituents.
This is an attack on MAGA.
That's what he keeps saying.
And by the way, for people in the live chat and hashtag We're in a Pandemic say, hey, where's the action, action, action?
I'm the first to admit, we've pushed this.
We've pushed this hard.
The folks that have the presidency are on this for whatever reason.
They've come down the Lindsey Graham side.
We have tried.
And, you know, you can't be too obnoxious about this, but we try to offer, all we try to do is offer guidance and then, hey, people got to make decisions.
I think if the president knew all the facts and could see what was going on behind the scenes, he would definitely have a much more robust defense, right?
And I just hope that these guys have put together, I've heard they've done some videos, but Doing videos and just showing, I think, just simply showing the Democrats rile people up, that's fine, but that's not going to weigh in with this crowd, right?
They have now, they're going to totally dismiss that.
You can do it, you should do it, obviously you should do it, but that can't be the major counter thrust that you've got going here.
Some good news, and this is for the action, this is for about the deplorables, right?
The deplorables should understand, I want to connect some dots, not only have the full frontal attack by the war room on the Lincoln Project, particularly led by
People like Raheem Kassam and you've got the Revolver News guys with Darren Beatty that understood and we said from day one this Lincoln Project was going to be a problem because in these tight tight tight races like in places like Arizona where you're 8,300 votes down with all the stealing everything you get some of these never Trumpers particularly the McCain faction out there you're gonna have some problems to now know they raised 90 million dollars and put it to work and trying to destroy the president but
Your efforts here with Dan Schultz, and I'm trying to get Dan on, we're definitely going to have him on this evening, but the response of this audience to Dan Schultz has been so, is Dan with us?
As soon as we get Dan, we're trying to get, it's been so overwhelming.
That's the reason, ladies and gentlemen, One of the reasons, they had the Zoom call yesterday with the Never Trumpers.
Huge story up on Daily Mail, all over, in Politico and everywhere, that the hardest core of the Bush faction and the Cheney faction and the Never Trumpers had, 120 of them, got on a Zoom call yesterday.
Guess what?
They're talking about forming a third party.
You know why?
They understand now that when you start preaching the gospel of priests and committeemen, And the deplorables get engaged.
They're not getting the apparatus of the Republican Party, although you get the donors and the elites.
It is built in tiers, kind of like multi-level marketing.
It's kind of built in tiers from the ground floor up.
You take over those committee seats, you take over those precincts, you have a lot of throw weight.
And this is what Dan Schultz says.
And by the way, some people have come back and said, hey, it's not as easy as Dan Schultz saying.
The establishment is always going to try to beat you down and try to not have you making decisions. That's all true.
But once you get into those billets, and there's 200,000 empty billets, they understand now that the woke deplorables start taking those billets, they're going to be dialed out, because their program is not the program of the deplorables.
And so Rahim, you're seeing this. I realized the Lincoln Project, it was very formidable one time, but I think that they're now taking some blows about what the real concept was in back of it. And some of the people, and look, I think the McCain campaign and others, you know, McCain holds himself out as this, you know, obviously a war hero, a great naval officer.
But it was about his politics, and particularly what always irked me was going back and getting Sarah Palin to endorse him, going back and getting Trump to endorse him.
Every time he's in trouble, he's a hard right, you know, build the wall, let's stop everything, and begging, and literally begging Sarah Palin to come in and endorse him, Donald Trump to come in and endorse him.
Kelly Ward would have been a senator if Trump hadn't come in and endorsed him in that primary.
I think it was in June of 16.
So this Lincoln Project was a major problem.
raheem kassam
The other thing about this third party stuff is that they've obviously seen this time around the impact that they could have.
I mean, let's not kid ourselves that the Lincoln Project didn't have any impact.
Of course it did.
There's 90 million dollars being thrown around there that's going to have an impact in any race or any industry, quite frankly.
But the other part of it is that they've seen that impact and they want...
Who were most of their donors?
Most of their donors were not Republicans.
Most of their donors were not people who saw the Republican Party going in a direction that they didn't like and therefore wanted to support these former Republicans.
steve bannon
They were Democrats.
This is globalists versus nationalists, elites versus populists.
They're from the elite globalist arm of the Republican Party that has no stroke anymore.
raheem kassam
So if you want to ensure for the foreseeable future that Republicans don't win elections, and what is one of the mechanisms by which to do it is to split the Republican vote.
So if you're a smart Democrat and you're using smart money what you do is you set up a fake Republican conservative organization and that organization's job is to split the vote on the right for every single election going forward.
I mean frankly if we were smart we would have set up a communist party and be running it and donating to it and running ourselves to split the Democrat vote.
steve bannon
I want to talk about the Lincoln Project and the Associates for the audience members that don't know this scandal that broke.
But when I say a scandal that broke, people have known about this for years, right?
They've known about it for a long time.
raheem kassam
Paul Rove claims to have known about it for decades.
Decades!
steve bannon
From 1988 and then from 2004 he was actually out there verbally saying it, but nobody did anything about it.
raheem kassam
Nobody did anything about it.
Nobody did anything about the predatory behavior of John Weaver.
Nobody did anything about it when they were asked last year about this.
Molly Jong Fast, who's one of these people that throws these Lincoln Project-type parties and book events at a Manhattan home, is said to have known about this too.
She was asked about it.
She's been asked about it multiple times.
She actually blocked me once I started asking about it on Twitter.
I'm not just a hater, but I think complicit in all of this as well, and you know, I've heard so many threats now.
steve bannon
When you say all of it, explain to the audience what we're talking about.
raheem kassam
So here's the thing.
Look at the way this group has behaved.
Firstly, they've gone after people's characters.
Every single advertisement, one's about Jason Miller, one's about Donald Trump, one's about people around him.
They go after people's moral integrity and their character.
And I'm not saying that these people don't have character flaws.
They would be the first to admit they have character flaws.
But the Lincoln Project pretends that they are people that don't have character flaws.
They even wrote, I mean, did you see this?
It was the Steve Schmidt guy.
He wrote this long love letter to AOC on Twitter saying, Hey, you know, we're the types of guys that tip 50% to waitresses.
steve bannon
Schmitt was a genius in back of the McCain campaign, another genius.
raheem kassam
You can afford to tip 50% to waitresses when you're taking $90 million off Democrat donors and paying your own companies.
That's the other thing about the Lincoln Project that people don't realize.
It's not like they were finding third-party vendors to do their text message campaigns and their video cutting and editing and distribution and the TV buys.
Just to let people in on this a little bit here, on the TV buy side of things, the way Washington D.C.
works is you take a little off the front end and a little off the back end.
You take a little off the donor side of the entity organization side, the Lincoln Project side, you take your commission on that.
And then you take a commission on the television side as well.
That's how these people get stinky rich.
steve bannon
TV's where the vigor is.
Let's bring in, how are you going to stop this?
Action, action, action.
We're getting it from the audience.
We want to bring in Dan Schultz right now.
We've got Dan.
Dan, we've got a couple minutes here and I want to keep you over because I want to give you five minutes.
Walk through, by the way, now you've got the Lincoln Project and all the Bush and Cheney factions scared to death.
All the globalists, elitists in the Republican Party had a conference call yesterday, a Zoom call, 120, trying to form their own third party because they realized, Dan, that you've been a man obsessed.
Now you've got the war room posse Coming to the rescue to go to all these 200,000 billets of precinct committeemen.
Once again, tell people what they're signing up for.
We've got about a minute here and we're going to bring you back after the break.
dan schultz
Well, um, I just signed up somebody just a couple of minutes ago here locally.
Um, what you're signing up for is to become a ball player in the real ball game of politics, party politics with your local Republican party committee, where you'll get to vote for directly who the county chairman is, for example, and then you'll get access to the get out the vote software that we use to help elect better people than the primary.
And you can do that in your precinct.
Increase turnout for the best conservative candidate in that all-important primary election.
Precinct committeemen are the party.
If there are no precinct committeemen, there's no party.
And the establishment doesn't want you to know this.
You can tell the difference between a conservative local committee, county committee, and a non-conservative.
The conservative committees will have directions on their website of how to become a member.
The establishment committees won't because they don't want you to come in.
So we just have to do it.
And that's essentially my message.
steve bannon
Dan, hang on for one second.
We're taking a short commercial break.
Dan Schultz is a guy that's making a difference.
You know why?
Because he's opening up the possibility for you, the audience, to make a difference.
We understand now we're in the age of action.
Actionable intelligence taking action.
This is the most powerful, engaged audience in all media.
It's not because of us here.
It's because of you.
We give you access to tools.
We give you access to information.
You are a force multiplier.
Dan Schultz is showing that, and that's why they had that conference call on Zoom the other day.
Okay, short commercial break.
We'll return with Dan Schultz and Brian Kennedy from Claremont Institute.
All next, War and 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.
steve bannon
You know, they mocked and ridiculed this audience in 15 in the Republican primaries, and in 16 they mocked and ridiculed it in the summer and fall of 16, and before you, you made Donald J. Trump the 45th President of the United States.
He's the best candidate we've had since Reagan.
A fighter.
Indefatigable.
But, it was you that made him President of the United States.
It's you that still have his back.
Because he represents your values, your voice, where you think the direction of this country should go in the direction of the world.
This show is about engagement.
We're not, we don't, as I say all the time, we're not here to entertain you.
There's many other people on talk radio and other people do these shows, other people live stream on cable.
They do a fantastic job of that.
That's not us.
This is a workplace, and the reason this show is so powerful and the reason everybody's trying to shut it down is because of you, the audience, and your engagement, right?
You're tired of sitting there listening.
You're tired of being told what to do.
You want to go do it.
This is about action, action, action.
One of the best things we've seen is the response to Dan Schultz, because Dan Schultz is not offering you a paradise.
He's just saying it's going to be hard work, but you can do this.
This is the way that you control the Republican Party and therefore control the future politics of this nation and the world.
So Dan, and I'm seeing it every day.
My phone's blowing up, and that's one of the reasons I had the Zoom call.
They understand their days are over.
They tried initially to force you out and to go take the sucker's bet of building a third party with the hundreds of millions and billions of dollars that were taken, the years, and what is really legally structured in this country is a two-party system, okay?
That's just the reality.
They understand you woke now to the reality, and with Dan Schultz and what he offers, Right?
You're going to take it over.
So Dan, once again, give our audience how to get to you.
And I gotta tell the audience, I am blown away by the response to Dan Schultz.
The tens of thousands that he's getting pounding into his website, the information.
I want everybody, even if you don't have an interest today, To take this down, we're going to get up on the screen to make sure that you have, particularly if you listen to the podcast later, get this information, just go and see what Dan Scholz have, maybe get his book.
And just, if you don't sign up and commit right away, put it on your list of things to think about highly in 2021, because I guarantee you, the more you sit there and the more you see what's going on, you're going to want to get engaged.
Dan, give people how they get access to you.
dan schultz
Excuse me.
Thanks, Steve.
The place to go is theprecinctproject.wordpress.com.
That's my little blog.
Once you're there, you're going to see a video from this show at the top, and then off on the right, if you scroll down, there's something for every state in the Union about how it works.
It varies.
I've compiled whatever I could find.
But essentially it's this.
I did it the old-fashioned way years ago.
There's 400,000 of these precinct committeemen slots in our Republican Party.
Less than one out of a hundred can be a precinct committeeman.
The way to get to your county committee is to locate your county committee.
These days it's pretty easy because most county committees, but not all, have a website.
Locate your county committee, call them, email them, whatever it takes, and find out where your particular committee meets.
If you're in a rural area, you're going to go to a county committee meeting.
If you're an urban area, it's probably a legislative district committee, assembly district committee, something like that.
Or you can go to the county committee meeting, but that's going to be a big meeting.
Anyways, the idea is you've got to get in touch with your committee, find out where they meet, find out if there's a vacancy right now.
Odds are there is, because over half of these slots are vacant.
And volunteer to fill one.
You can volunteer to fill one.
Right now, for example, in South Carolina, they're having in March, I think it's March 21, all across the state in South Carolina, and I have a link there for a video that explains how to do it.
They do it a little bit differently.
You don't get elected in the primary election, you get elected at a caucus meeting.
You got to find out where your caucus meeting is, go there, say, I want to become a precinct committeeman.
A lot of times what will happen is people will come and half of the slots won't have a candidate.
So you win by default.
There isn't even an election.
You just win.
There's a participation deficit of conservatives in this country.
The place to participate in politics, the best place, the real place is inside our party in these precinct committeeman slots because they elect everybody.
They elect the county chairs.
They elect the electors who elect the state chair.
They elect the electors who elect the delegates to the four-year presidential nominating conventions in the state who elect the other two members of the RNC.
You want to change the RNC, the 168 members of the RNC, directly?
You've got to become a precinct committeeman.
If you're just a donor to the party, they think you're a schmuck.
Okay, you're just giving money.
They want you to spend time volunteering to get out the vote, maybe.
But they'll never tell you, the establishment doesn't tell you about becoming a precinct committeeman.
I do.
steve bannon
Dan, one more time, how do you get to the site?
We've got to bounce.
How do they get to the site?

They loved it.
Okay, Dan Schultz, thank you so much.
You're doing the Lord's work.
It's incredible.
Dan Schultz from the Precinct Project.
I want to thank him.
We've got Brian Kennedy.
I tell you, we're going to hold Brian to the other... Real quickly, Brian, we've got about a minute, about 30 seconds.
Lindsey Graham, last night on Hannity.
What were your thoughts?
Before I get you in here to talk about Lindell's film, what about Lindsey Graham last night?
unidentified
I thought it was just embarrassing, Steve.
I mean, is Lindsey Graham getting his talking points from the Lincoln Project?
I mean, what's really the point here?
Is he not going to fight and defend either, you know, even if he doesn't like Donald Trump, you ought to defend The actual conduct of what transpired in the last four years.
steve bannon
He's whining, and he's kind of surprised.
It's all emotional, and they're playing these videos.
It's so unfair.
There's not the level of evidence.
Hello?
You set this up.
It's your structure.
You walked Trump into this trap, and that's what it is.
You walked him into a trap.
They sprung it yesterday.
We're going to sit through a whole other day of this tomorrow.
Brian Kenney's actually with us to talk about Mike Lindell's film, Absolute We're going to take a short commercial break.
We've got Brian Kennedy.
We've got Darren Beatty from Revolver.
He and Rahim are going to get back into all kinds of mysteries up here about what's actually going on with this investigation about January 6th.
We've got Chinese New Year, the new Lunar New Year, talking about the Wuhan lab, and the great Mike Lindell is going to join us, talk about this three-hour special we've got tonight on One America News.
All next hour, War and Pandemic.
