Well the virus has now killed more than a hundred people in China and new cases have been confirmed around the world. | |
| So 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. | ||
| Probably warning Americans to avoid all non-essential travel to China. | ||
| That this is going to be a real serious problem. | ||
| France, Australia, Canada, the US, Singapore, Cambodia, Vietnam, the list goes on. | ||
| Health officials are investigating more than a hundred possible cases in the US. | ||
| Germany, a man has contracted the virus. | ||
| The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide. | ||
| Japan, where a bus driver contracted the virus. | ||
| Coronavirus has killed more than 100 people there and infected more than 4,500. | ||
| We have to prepare for the worst, always, because if you don't and the worst happens, War Room. | ||

Pandemic. | |
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Banham. | ||
| All right, welcome back to the War Room this Friday, February the 12th, the year of our Lord, 2021. | ||
| Still an occupied Capitol Hill, despite Ted Lieu's admissions yesterday. | ||
| We'll be getting back into more of that in just a second. | ||
| But now we want to bring in, I think, one of the most important cultural and, you know, kind of psychological commentators out there. | ||
| Joined us last week, wanted to make sure we get more time. | ||
| Dr. Gad Saad joins us Down the line now, Dr. Saad, thank you so much for your time again here on War and Pandemic. | ||
| So good to be with you again, thank you. | ||
| So, I want to get into your book, The Parasitic Mind, in just a moment, but first I want to talk to you about Gina Carano. | ||
| Gina Carano dropped from the Mandalorian for having the audacity, the temerity to compare what people are doing now in terms of having their neighbors and their family members and their friends inform on them if they're part of a group of wrong thinkers. | ||
| And Disney and the Lucasfilm people seem to take great umbrage at Gina Carano here. | ||
| So from your perspective, I know we had you on talking about Seth Rogen last week, you follow these things. | ||
| You're very internet and I think that's one of the things your fans like about you following along with what's going on in the trends. | ||
| Explain to us this Corona situation, because I still don't fully understand their rationale. | ||
| Well, I mean, it's lunacy on many levels. | ||
| And by the way, for your viewers, if it matters, they should know that I'm Jewish, that my family escaped Lebanon, So we know about genocidal hate. | ||
| We know about hatred towards Jews. | ||
| So it's not as though I'm not coming from a place where I don't understand these kinds of phenomena. | ||
| But what's happening here is a manifestation of this endless orgiastic Munchhausen, right? | ||
| I'm a victim, therefore I am. | ||
| Look, she made an analogy, which I think is always difficult to pull off because it's not usually a good idea to compare anything to the Holocaust because nothing is comparable to it. | ||
| But really what she said, it was quite tepid in reality. | ||
| And if anything, Democrats have spent four years comparing Donald Trump to Hitler and Republicans to Nazis. | ||
| So when they do it every single minute of every day, it's okay. | ||
| When an actress makes a similar analogy that's not even remotely as close to some of the stuff that the Democrats have said in invoking some of this Nazi imagery, suddenly she's Himmler and she needs to be canceled. | ||
| It's grotesque. | ||
| It's moral hypocrisy. | ||
| I can't stand it. | ||
| And remember, you know, it comes at a time when we keep hearing the phrase, the big lie, the big lie, over and over again. | ||
| That's happening on one channel, and you flip over to the very next channel and they're cancelling somebody for using, you know, a comparison to the Second World War, and as you say, to the Holocaust. | ||
| And I agree with you, Dr. Satt. | ||
| I don't necessarily think it's the wisest thing to do, especially if you're not Gina Carano. | ||
| But it also bore a message within it about the informant nature of what was going on back then and what the same people who accused Donald Trump and his supporters of peddling the big lie, the big lie, the big lie, you know, that came from Mein Kampf, that phrase. | ||
| They are using a phrase from Mein Kampf Unironically, and then with the very same breath, cancelling somebody for somebody for something that they don't like, for something that they think is a wrong thing. | ||
| I think you're, what did you call it, the orgiastic Munchausen? | ||
| I think that's a pretty good way of putting it, Steve. | ||
| That is so War Room. | ||
| I think that's a pretty good way of putting it. | ||
| Hey, brother. | ||
| I love the book, too, by the way. | ||
| Let's get into the book. | ||
| By the way, he's intimidated by you, so he has me conducting these interviews. | ||
| No, no, no, no. | ||
| I want somebody that can do this. | ||
| He's a cultural guy. | ||
| But this book is so important, right? | ||
| I normally try, because I've spent years in Hollywood as a financier and a producer and then ultimately a director of documentaries, but most of the time people chase that It's noise, not signal. | ||
| Your book is signal, because you pull the camera back and really drill down, I think, on something that's very deep, and it's having a massive impact. | ||
| So, Rahim, let's go through the book, because I think everybody's got to get this book. | ||
| You've got to read it and think about it. | ||
| Yeah, and it's called The Parasitic Mind, How Infectious Ideas Are Killing Common Sense. | ||
| Dr. Satter, I'll pitch it over to you. | ||
| What does that mean? | ||
| So basically what I argue in the book is that, sure, today we're facing this COVID crisis, but we've been facing a pandemic of the human mind for 40, 50 years. | ||
| It involves a set of idea pathogens that were spawned on university campuses, because as I always like to remind people, it takes intellectuals and professors to come up with really dumb ideas. | ||
| And so these dreadfully bad ideas originated on campuses, but now they have found their way in every nook and cranny of society. | ||
| And what I hopefully have done well is at the end of the book, I offer ways by which we can inoculate ourselves, how we can vaccinate ourselves against these dreadful ideas. | ||
| So, if you'd like, we can go over a few of these idea pathogens. | ||
| Please. | ||
| Yeah, absolutely. | ||
| So, here's probably the granddaddy of all of them. | ||
| Postmodernism is what I call a form of intellectual terrorism, because postmodernism basically posits that there are no universal truths. We are always shackled by subjectivity, we are shackled by relative constraints, we are shackled by personal biases, so to speak of universal truths is silly according to postmodernists. Well, that's insane, right? It's anti-scientific because we do wake up every day as scientists thinking that there is a | ||
| truth to be discovered. | ||
| Now, scientific truths can change, right? | ||
| There is a provisional element to scientific truths. | ||
| What was true 300 years ago may no longer be true today. | ||
| We revise what we think is true. | ||
| But we do operate on the premise that there are natural regularities in the world to be discovered. | ||
| So imagine if you now inculcate generations of students with this completely nihilistic, intellectually terroristic form of full profundity where you're telling them hey there is no such thing as truth that's not going to result into well-developed critical thinking individuals right intellectually terroristic is a phrase that stands out to me uh... | ||
| That will be, you know, again, while they say in one breath that certain people for certain ideas are political terrorists and seditionists and insurrectionists and whatever, that phrase you just used will create some consternation from the people I suppose you're charging it at. | ||
| So I'm going to ask you to defend it. | ||
| Explain to us that concept. | ||
| So maybe I'll draw an analogy, which might make those folks in question even more upset. | ||
| So I compare postmodernists to the 9-11 hijackers, and let me explain how. | ||
| So the 9-11 hijackers were very committed to their ideology, and they flew planes onto buildings. | ||
| Well, postmodernists fly planes of BS, if I can put it gently, into our edifices of reason. | ||
| In other words, there is no theoretical, practical, epistemological value in positing that there are no truths. | ||
| And in that sense, it's a form of intellectual terrorism, because it's a dead end, right? | ||
| I mean, I wake up every day trying to uncover things about the world. | ||
| So, if you tell me that there are no truths, what's the point for me to get out of bed as a scientist? | ||
| Let me ask you a different question. | ||
| We've got about five minutes here. | ||
| If you look at the Ivies, right? | ||
| It's totally infected then. | ||
| If you look at the great Catholic universities, whether it's Georgetown or Notre Dame, gone. | ||
| If you look at the public Ivies, Right? | ||
| University of Virginia, University of Michigan, Berkeley, gone. | ||
| Now, I went to land-grant university as an undergraduate. | ||
| I went to Georgetown and Harvard, you know, the VPI, all the land-grant universities also gone. | ||
| How was it? | ||
| Doctor, that the conservative intellectuals that believed in the Western tradition, believed in the tenets of the Judeo-Christian West, had been passed on for us from Athens and Jerusalem and Rome down to the present time, and our forefathers had fought Persia and all the Asiatic empires to keep this kind of thing of the Judeo-Christian West, and Rabbi Sparrow has this great book, Pushback, that says there's an Americanized version of this. | ||
| Why weren't our ideas strong enough, and why weren't the proponents of those ideas strong enough that you now have heretofore what were conservative places like Notre Dame and places like that, and these land-grant universities, right, that were made up basically of engineering schools and agricultural schools, right, and the practical arts that Lincoln wanted them to be? | ||
| How did that all collapse? | ||
| I mean, look around. | ||
| Maybe the Ivies, you could understand it, but how did everything else collapse? | ||
| The universities are now the railhead of all these radical ideas that you say are totally misguided. | ||
| Yeah, so I actually discussed that exact question in great detail in the book. | ||
| So there are several factors that lead to what you're describing. | ||
| Number one, it's a numbers game. | ||
| So if you look at the distribution or the ratio of professors who are Democrat versus Republican in the universities, it is astoundingly lopsided, right? | ||
| The more you look at disciplines that are activist-based, right? | ||
| So, in engineering or in the business school, the ratios won't be so bad because engineering in the business school is still connected to reality, whereas when you enter some fields that are completely decoupled from the consequences of their nonsense, then you have ratios of 44 to 1. | ||
| I mean, sociology, there's a study that I cite in the book where it's, I think, 44 to 1 ratio. | ||
| So imagine if you are a sociology student and you'd like to discuss some issue that is contrary to the typical orthodoxy of the Democratic Party. | ||
| You're probably not going to be very secure unless you truly are a honey badger. | ||
| You're going to recoil in a fetal position. | ||
| Well, that's what happens to professors. | ||
| It's a numbers game. | ||
| They're afraid to speak out. | ||
| Frankly, professors are not selected based on their intellectual bravery. | ||
| Most are selected to be specialists, so keep your head down, stay in the lane, keep quiet and do your research in the lab and shut up. | ||
| Very few are willing to navigate outside of their lanes. | ||
| And so, slowly but surely, the big monster of nonsense takes over every single nook and cranny. | ||
| It's as simple as that. | ||
| Doctor, the reason the show is so powerful is our audience. | ||
| It's an activist audience. | ||
| They want to get engaged. | ||
| Our watchword here is action, action, action. | ||
| What would you recommend? | ||
| Besides getting your book and sharing it with people who should read it and share it with their friends and talk about it, what does your book say? | ||
| How can they weaponize that for action? | ||
| So you really have to activate your inner honey badger. | ||
| Now what I mean by that is a honey badger is an extraordinary ferocious animal. | ||
| It's the size of a small dog. | ||
| It could withstand an attack of six lions. | ||
| Well, what does it mean to be an ideological honey badger? | ||
| It means that if someone challenges you on issues and you have some compelling, well thought out, well articulated reasons for why you should defend your first principles, then activate your honey badger. | ||
| Now, you don't have to be Steve Bannon with the platform. | ||
| You don't have to be Gadsad or Joe Rogan. | ||
| You can affect change within your small sphere of influence. | ||
| If your professor says something that's nonsensical, challenge them politely. | ||
| Your principal puts up some BLM stuff in your elementary school for your kids. | ||
| Challenge them. | ||
| In other words, you have to feel sufficiently empowered to believe that your voice matters. | ||
| If everybody develops that reflex, we'll get rid of all this nonsense by next Tuesday. | ||
| If we don't, we're gonna go on a slow train ride to hell. | ||
| But real quickly, we've got about a minute left, but isn't that the whole purpose of what they're doing at Lucasfilms? | ||
| They're trying to intimidate people now and say, if you do that, if you follow what Dr. Gad says, if you follow Bannon, if you follow these crazies, you're going to be ostracized. | ||
| Your career's going to be over, your kids are going to be kicked out of school, they're going to be bullied because you're a domestic terrorist. | ||
| It's actually you that are flying the idea plane into the World Trade Center, not us. | ||
| We're the good guys. | ||
| We've got about a minute, Doctor. | ||
| Well, listen, there is no way to engage this issue without incurring potential costs. | ||
| The young men who landed on the beaches of Normandy were not guaranteed safe passage. | ||
| Most of them knew that they were going to be mowed down like little mosquitoes, and yet they did it. | ||
| So I understand that people have pragmatic reasons to be afraid. | ||
| I might lose my job. | ||
| I might lose my friends. | ||
| I might not be invited to the cool parties. | ||
| I've incurred a lot of costs. | ||
| I had a million death threats. | ||
| I used to get anxiety walking into campus. | ||
| But I did it because my indignant nature at all this nonsense supersedes any fear that I might have. | ||
| And so you have to ultimately decide for yourself if you wish to be a participant in fighting for our societies or to be a coward sitting in a corner sucking your thumb. | ||
| Doctor, real quickly, 15 seconds. | ||
| How do people get to the book? | ||
| How do they get to you? | ||
| You can find me on Twitter at Gottsad. | ||
| I have a podcast, The Sad Truth, on Amazon. | ||
| My book is listed, so it's easy to find me. | ||
| Hope you check out the book. | ||
| Okay, we're going to push. | ||
| Let's put in the live chat. | ||
| I want his podcast. | ||
| I want all of it. | ||
| Thank you very much, Doctor. | ||
| Great honor to have you on. | ||
| Cheers, guys. | ||
| Thank you so much. | ||
| That's a honey badger right there. | ||
| Okay, we're bringing in another one next. | ||

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. | ||
| OK, the great Jack Posobiec over One American News is tweeting out right now the interview with with Richard Barris. | ||
| Headline breaking Lindsey Graham helping Nikki Haley make the rounds and meet high dollar donors. | ||
| Yikes. | ||
| Right. | ||
| You know, this is all about what we try to do here and separating the signal from the noise is make sure you understand the deep undercurrents that drive politics in this nation, that drive power in this nation, that drive finance in this nation. | ||
| And that's why we try to bring the smartest people, oftentimes people that you've not heard of or don't make these other networks, etc. | ||
| And the reason we do it is that that's why this show is different. | ||
| We're trying to get to the beating heart of what the problem is. | ||
| And that's why, quite frankly, back in October of 18, in London at the Bloomberg headquarters where I was giving a talk from about 250 hedge fund managers. | ||
| Right? | ||
| I laid out the fact that, hey, if we lose this midterm, and I nailed it with the 25 to 35 seats, if we lose the midterms, he's going to get impeached immediately. | ||
| They're going to start the process. | ||
| And Nikki Haley, who announced it a couple weeks before, did it on purpose to let, you know, college-educated women in the suburbs know, I'm not with him. | ||
| Right? | ||
| And to try to tip it. | ||
| And it tipped some of those things. | ||
| And then today, of all days, Today we start the defense. | ||
| When this show goes off at noon, they're going to cut live to it, okay? | ||
| And we already know they're not taking up their two days. | ||
| Remember, this is not a legal proceeding. | ||
| This is political theater. | ||
| It's on broadcast television for a reason. | ||
| They want low-information voters and mid-information voters to get caught up in the drama of it. | ||
| That's why it's cut like a TV show. | ||
| That's why everything they bring in, it's not legal, it's not logical. | ||
| The TV show doesn't have to have a logic. | ||
| The show has to have an internal show logic, what we call movie logic. | ||
| In the business, it's movie logic. | ||
| Not what the real world is. | ||
| You've got to suspend belief, but things have an internal logic. | ||
| That's where Hitchcock came up with the term, the MacGuffin. | ||
| What is the thing itself you're doing in North by Northwest or rear window? | ||
| It's not anything in the real world. | ||
| It's in movie logic. | ||
| That's how these people think. | ||
| It's about mass communications. | ||
| The greatest McLuhan-esque figure, when I say McLuhan, McLuhan, the professor out at Washington, said, hey, everything is going to be about mass media. | ||
| He said this in the age of radio. | ||
| When he saw the dawn of television, it will overwhelm evolutionary biology and that mass communication will be everything. | ||
| Donald J. Trump understood this. | ||
| This is what the power, if he disintermediated the mainstream media by using this new tool called Twitter. | ||
| Donald Trump doesn't go online. | ||
| I don't think Donald Trump had ever been, I don't think he's ever been to Breitbart. | ||
| I don't think he's ever been to Drudge. | ||
| People have shown him it, but he's not a guy, he's not surfing the web. | ||
| But boy, he's got a trigger finger on Twitter, right? | ||
| Because he understood the power of it. | ||
| And they understand the power. | ||
| Think of what the last two weeks would be if Donald Trump would be on Twitter. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Joe Biden's approvals would be in the mid 30s. | ||
| Right. | ||
| He's not. | ||
| And they understand that. | ||
| That's the collusion. | ||
| That's the collusion nature of it. | ||
| And one day in a court, that discovery is going to come forward of Jack Dorsey and Zuckerberg and all this. | ||
| The same collusion, quite frankly, they had with Facebook back in 2008 with Obama when they had that meeting at the San Francisco airport. | ||
| When Zuckerberg told Obama and his staff, hey, here's the way you got to do it. | ||
| And all those executives from Facebook went to Chicago and led the Obama revolution. | ||
| Right. | ||
| That took this anti-war populist to the presidency. | ||
| So it's and that's why Nikki Haley. | ||
| There are no conspiracies. | ||
| But there are also no coincidences. | ||
| The Peggy Noonan piece and the Tim Alberta. | ||
| Tim Alberta is the scribe for Mitch McConnell. | ||
| His book, which sold like nine copies, was all about Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan and all this stuff and how they were such great guys and all these other guys were scumbags. | ||
| The guys actually won things that took over the house in the Tea Party Revolt. | ||
| And now I want to bring on one of those guys, Darren Bailey, one of the smartest guys around. | ||
| And he's got a site, Revolver, that is on fire. | ||
| You must go to Revolver. | ||
| Okay, his story the other day, he's on top of this thing with the police officer at the Capitol Hill Police that was bludgeoned to death and everything and Rahim did this fabulous mashup that just on and on and on. | ||
| He outed it and now they're all running around. | ||
| It's every news story. | ||
| Hey, I think it's bear spray. | ||
| It's something, but they know Darren Batey's on them. | ||
| But I had to bring Darren on today and we're just kind of jamming this in and I'm gonna get off my soapbox because out in the desert at the wall in El Paso, we built this wall and then we had conferences to kind of talk about the crisis at the border wall. | ||
| This is the We Build the Wall, the great wall we built in El Paso, still the best model wall ever built, straight up a hill, to stop. | ||
| If you saw the movie Soraka, I think it is, that fabulous film that talked about Juarez and El Paso, the great film that... Sicario? | ||
| Sicario. | ||
| You saw that great film. | ||
| This is exactly the place where the cartels come across. | ||
| Darren Beatty's out there in, I think, June or July of 19, and it's, you know, 115 degrees. | ||
| We have a conference for him. | ||
| I think you joined us. | ||
| The best conference we had on the wall about illegal immigration and cartels controlling it. | ||
| Beatty's sitting there, and what we're talking about? | ||
| Nikki Haley. | ||
| Darren Beatty, I'm gonna turn it over to you. | ||
| You have been on this Nikki Haley situation for years. | ||
| Yes, I've been a Nikki Haley critic and doubter for a while, and I think this is yet another piece of indication her quote-unquote betrayal of Trump. | ||
| But I think it's important to understand that this isn't exactly a betrayal in the sense that it presupposes she was ever with him in the first place. | ||
| I think all of your listeners should know, if they don't already, Literally in the lead up during the campaign in 2016, Nikki Haley compared Donald Trump to Dylan Roof, the South Carolina shooter, on account of Donald Trump's immigration position, which was basically Bill Clinton's immigration position in the 90s. | ||
| And so I'll leave it to the listeners to speculate as to why would you appoint someone to the cabinet, which she was, Who accused you of being like Dylan Roof, one of the worst mass murderers in the country's history, because you advanced America First immigration policy. | ||
| But she's been bad news for a long time. | ||
| She emerges from the hyper-corrupt South Carolina political machine. | ||
| In fact, she's joined at the hip with Lindsey Graham. | ||
| She has regular calls with him, weekly calls if not multiple times a week. | ||
| She's been joined at the hip from him since the very beginning. | ||
| Part of that same corrupt machine, open borders, neocon puppet, pro big tech. | ||
| She says, oh, we can't do anything to rein in big tech because they're private companies. | ||
| So we just have to let them stomp on our necks and rip the tongues out of our mouths. | ||
| She's just bad on every single front. | ||
| In addition to being morally questionable in a way that one might compare to Kamala Harris. | ||
| But here's what people have to understand. | ||
| She's the front for the establishment that wants to take the Republican Party, wants to purge Trump. | ||
| That's why Lindsey Graham and McConnell pulled this deal on this thing. | ||
| You can't talk about the voter fraud. | ||
| Talk about that, you're going to be convicted. | ||
| Although he's got a free option. | ||
| They've convinced him of that. | ||
| She's a neoliberal neocon. | ||
| All the failed policies that's got America in this jam we're in today is Nikki Haley. | ||
| She thinks by throwing out, you know, her big thing when she saw, you know, she was never tough on China, ever. | ||
| But when she saw the traction that China was getting, all of a sudden she came out, you know, her first thing, she put up a website, you know, help me, you know, help me confront the Chinese Communist Party. | ||
| It's a joke. | ||
| Listen, here's the donors. | ||
| Let me just tell you. | ||
| You've got a higher probability of return on investment in the political arena by taking your money out, putting it in a barrel, and burn it in your front yard. | ||
| She will not be the nominee. | ||
| She will not be President of the United States. | ||
| This MAGA movement has come too far. | ||
| It's too focused. | ||
| It understands what the problems of the nation are. | ||
| And we're not going to go back to that. | ||
| We're just not going to go back to that. | ||
| That's why the guys that got it, the 120 neoliberal neocons the other day, understand with Dan Schultz and what we're doing here to motivate and engage the deplorables, that it's their party. | ||
| Why should the deplorables go form a third party? | ||
| They're the votes, right? | ||
| They're the muscle. | ||
| They're the guys that go door-to-door. | ||
| They're the guys that go out and do the voter turnout. | ||
| Right? | ||
| Why should they leave? | ||
| They're not going to leave. | ||
| The neoliberal neocons got to leave or you got to start dumping your policies and understand why America first makes sense. | ||
| Mr. Darren Beatty, you're the one of the top intellectuals in this movement. | ||
| What say you? | ||
| I think that's absolutely right. | ||
| And I want to acknowledge that there's a certain attractive narrative surrounding Nikki Haley's political career. | ||
| She always likes to tout the fact that, oh, you know, she's born to Um, seek immigrants from India and she's a woman and she's Republican and she has some kind of plausible connection to the Trump movement by virtue of her appointment, despite the fact that she attempted to sabotage him at every turn. | ||
| This is completely fake. | ||
| Just like everyone else who now, when it's, you know, after Trump is, you know, you know, worked out his use for them. | ||
| are turning on him and there are many such cases. Nikki Haley, I mean, we can count on our fingers the ones who weren't disloyal. It's the same story. It's fake. She's not America first. | ||
| She is a creature of the corrupt American political class, the neoconservative wing, which is the worst wing of this class. You got Cheney, you got Cheney, you got Liz, you got Cheney and you got Nikki Haley. But look at Christie Noem. | ||
| You've got a fire-breathing populace up there in South Dakota. | ||
| That's America First. | ||
| That's the future. | ||
| Nikki Haley and Cheney are the past. | ||
| It's not just personalities. | ||
| It's about the policies and what they stand for and where they want to take the country. | ||
| That's what we've got to leave behind. | ||
| That's the nine trillion dollars wasted. | ||
| Nikki Haley has no agency. | ||
| She's totally a puppet of the big corporations, big tech, and in particular the military-industrial complex, the neocon wing of the military-industrial complex. | ||
| She's obsessed with these wars that are deeply and severely unpopular with the American people of all persuasions. | ||
| There's simply nothing good about her. | ||
| She has no future. | ||
| I totally agree. | ||
| Somebody's got a future. | ||
| Kristi Noem, the governor of South Dakota, a fire-breathing populist that understands America first. | ||
| If you want to look to the future, that's the future. | ||
| You want to look to the failed past, the failed policies of the past, that's Cheney and Nikki Haley. | ||
| Revolver, you've got to go to Revolver. | ||
| Give your coordinates, Darren, because everybody wants to follow you, particularly as you're breaking this huge story. | ||
| Yep, at Darren J. Beattie on Twitter, revolver.news. | ||
| This Cygnus story is still exploding. | ||
| I've got so much stuff I'm sitting on and frankly, I'm a little bit worried. | ||
| We're starting to feel the heat and I need to make sure that we are sufficiently robust to withstand what I expect to come when we release the second installment of this series. | ||

| Darren, you owe me a podcast as well. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Okay, Darren Beatty, Raheem Kassam, building their media empires in front of me! | ||
| That's what we're here for. | ||
| We're here to promote the smart and tough ones, the honey badgers. | ||
| Okay, we'll be back in a second. | ||
| Dr. Maria Ryan, what's happening in New York? | ||

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, the live chat, whether it's in Telegram, on Real America's Voice, also hashtag War on Pandemic, on fire about our exposure of Nikki Haley and Raheem. | ||
| The streaming in back of us on CNN, the reason we do it is to make sure that you guys are triggered during the day. | ||
| But it lets you see what the opposition is saying. | ||
| It doesn't help you to watch, you know, you're watching Real America's Voice, it doesn't help you to have the fox in the background. | ||
| You've got to see what the opposition is saying. | ||
| It's all morning long, Mr. Rahim Kassam. | ||
| It's been Nikki Haley. | ||
| Nikki Haley separates from Trump. | ||
| She departs from Trump. | ||
| She says the Republican Party's down the road to perdition unless they cut Trump loose. | ||
| Right at the preamble to when his defense starts at high noon, Mr. Rahim Kassam. | ||
| So, again, I'll go back to the wounded animal lashing out here, which I think the GOP establishment is really feeling itself right now. | ||
| Look at what's happening with the Lincoln Project. | ||
| You look at what's happening to some of the people that they thought would embrace them after all of this time and effort and money that's been spent dragging these What have effectively been neocontrotskyites over to Team Biden over the last couple of years and using them and leveraging them to attack and create fissures within the MAGA base, the conservative base, and now they're not getting the love that they thought they were going to get from the left so they're having to take another step. | ||
| I think a step faster than they wanted to. | ||
| I don't think Look, in political communications, for something like this, you might see a slow ramping up of a story that has to do with Nikki Haley because a lot of people have forgotten who Nikki Haley is. | ||
| A lot of it, Nikki Haley kind of disappeared from the front lines of this, but She's actually come out of nowhere with this. | ||
| There hasn't been this kind of chatter around Nikki Haley the last couple of days, teasing this. | ||
| So I think this is a rushed attempt to distract away and put forward another more, let's say, less threatening face than John Weaver. | ||
| In the activist base, remember, there are many primers you have to run. | ||
| In the donor and activist base, she's been very active, very active. | ||
| Maybe to the general media. | ||
| I want to just read some of the Incredibly perceptive comments from the live chat. | ||
| Open borders, tech neocon, as bad as it gets these days. | ||
| That's from Laura Todd. | ||
| Another says, I quote from the live chat, we'll never get rid of these neocon operatives until we wipe out every form of vote fraud. | ||
| Another comment. | ||
| I have news for Mrs. Hale. | ||
| These are all from women, I believe. | ||
| I have news for Mrs. Haley. | ||
| College-educated women, moms and grandmoms, like me, see her for who she is. | ||
| A shiny object or bauble to satisfy us. | ||
| It will not work. | ||
| Darren Beatty is right. | ||
| It's all fake. | ||
| And last, from Terry Sullivan Kelly in our live chat, Governor Kristi Noem needs to write a response to Nikki Haley. | ||
| I could not support that more. | ||
| If you want to see the future If you want to see the future of our movement, you want to see the future of this party, if you want to see the future of politics, just look up to the Northern Plains in South Dakota. | ||
| The Christy Gnome. | ||
| That is the future. | ||
| The failed policies of the neocon, neoliberalist war machine, right? | ||
| And I say this as a naval officer that served over in the North Arabian Sea, in the Persian Gulf, in the Pacific Fleet, and a daughter went to West Point that served in Iraq with the 101st. | ||
| Right? | ||
| The Bannon family is that we go in and we volunteer and we do our five, six, seven, eight years, nine years, then go back to civilian life, just like the vast majority of people that sign up as patriots, right? | ||
| You should go to serve your country. | ||
| But we certainly believe in America first. | ||
| It is time to bring America's troops home. | ||
| Yes, we have to have a massive presence in the South China Sea. | ||
| We do not need to be bleeding out this current younger generation in the failed wars, the failed policies in Iraq and Afghanistan. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| You need to focus on who the existential threat is, not the war that Dick Cheney, by his lies and his misrepresentations, got us into. | ||
| Now I want to turn to, that's why Nikki Haley, remember she and Cheney are just the front pieces for the neoliberal, neocon, and they want a restoration. | ||
| Here's what they want. | ||
| They want Trump purged. | ||
| They want Trump purged, but they want you, who they consider rubes, to still there and give them money and buy their books and watch them on TV and give to their campaigns and go knock on doors and get them in office with policies now that you fully understand work against you and your family. | ||
| Work against the economics of family, work against the family formation possibilities. | ||
| They want your treasure. | ||
| And they want your blood. | ||
| They want your kids to sign up and to go fight in these endless wars now in Afghanistan. | ||
| And Biden just stopped it. | ||
| Remember, he was the Asia pivot. | ||
| That's the reason they put him on the Obama campaign. | ||
| Right. | ||
| The adult supervision. | ||
| He stops the withdrawal from troops in Afghanistan. | ||
| A war in Afghanistan that now is longer than the revolution, now longer than the Civil War, now longer than World War One, World War Two combined. | ||
| And I think he can even throw in Vietnam in there. | ||
| What, we're 19 years in this thing? | ||
| 18 years in this thing? | ||
| Okay, I want to turn now to Dr. Maria Ryan. | ||
| In March of last year, we're getting much more than this as the second front opens up in California. | ||
| California recall is a massive story. | ||
| All the failed policies you see in Biden, all these radical policies, they incubate in California because the Democrats now have had a total control of California, right, for a couple of decades. | ||
| That's why this recall is so important. | ||
| And this is why the show is called War and Pandemic for a reason. | ||
| Because it came out of China and we said this is going to change world history. | ||
| Whether you think it's a hoax or whether you think it's a biological weapon from the CCP. | ||
| And here's a point. | ||
| In March of last year, the three top politicians essentially in the country were Donald J. Trump, Andrew Cuomo, and Gavin Newsom. | ||
| Now Donald Trump, he got stolen, but Donald Trump is not in the Oval Office. | ||
| Andrew Cuomo is in deep water when we get to Dr. Maria Ryan in a second to explain to us what's happening, and Gavin Newsom's being recalled all because of the CCP virus, okay? | ||
| And Joe Biden, Joe Biden in this mess, he's following Fauci on another road to perdition, Joe. | ||
| OK, because this thing's totally confusing what you're trying to do and what you're trying to attempt to do. | ||
| Right. | ||
| His presidency is going to break its pick on the CCP virus. | ||
| He won't confront China. | ||
| He won't hold him responsible. | ||
| He won't get to Wuhan. | ||
| And then the policies here from the vaccinations to the school openings, all of it to the economics, the finance of it, it will take him down. | ||
| It will take him down. | ||
| Because we have not acted like the United States of America has historically acted. | ||
| After we got into World War II, three and a half years, what, four years to victory? | ||
| Civil War, the same thing. | ||
| America's slow to act, but when it acts, it gets focused. | ||
| Okay, Dr. Maria Ryan, explain to the audience what is happening in New York State with the governor, Andrew Cuomo, and the CCP virus. | ||
| Terrible. | ||
| Last March, he did a very controversial order on March 25th. | ||
| He basically said, if nursing home patients tested positive, they were in the hospital, they test positive, you can send them back to the nursing home. | ||
| Terrible. | ||
| We already knew by March how contagious this virus is and how the most vulnerable people are elderly and immunocompromised. | ||
| So why would you put COVID-positive patients in a nursing home? | ||
| Plus, at that time, the ship Comfort was starting to make its way to New York, and during that time was in New York, as well as the Javits Center, and neither was used to isolate COVID-positive patients, especially those patients in the nursing Hang on a second, hang on a second. | ||
| I've got to get this straight. | ||
| The President, remember, made this big deal. | ||
| In fact, he went down after our show. | ||
| Remember, we were the guys saying, lock down New York City like Wuhan. | ||
| We were saying, if you're going to do this, go to the full quarantine the Chinese have. | ||
| Because they obviously know more about this than we do. | ||
| And the President walked out to the helicopter to go down to the Norfolk Naval Station and said, hey, I'm thinking about doing a quarantine in New York, right? | ||
| Because he saw that special on NBC that had the hospital in Queens that had all the dead, it had all the patients coming, the dead coming out of it in the refrigerated trucks. | ||
| We built a, first of all, we tamed Javits Center into a field hospital, but we also built field hospitals in Central Park and through other areas of New York. | ||
| And in addition, he sent a hospital ship up there. | ||
| What was the fundamental decision? | ||
| What was the logic at the time? | ||
| Because Cuomo was at 60, over 60 percent. | ||
| Remember, he's given the daily briefings with the woman who turned him in right next to him. | ||
| Secretary, he's given the daily briefings. | ||
| His thing's in the 60s. | ||
| Media's going crazy. | ||
| This guy's a rock star. | ||
| He should be the guy in the primary who should run for president. | ||
| Not Bernie or Joe Biden, it's Cuomo. | ||
| What was the logic of the decision? | ||
| Did he not want to give Trump any credit or was there some medical reason why he didn't send him to the hospitals but sent him back to the nursing homes? | ||
| There's absolutely no medical reason. | ||
| I'm sure his public health professionals, his epidemiologists were telling him this is a vast mistake. | ||
| On my show, Uncovering the Truth, which I co-host with Rudy Giuliani, back in August, we were trying to uncover this issue because Cuomo wasn't taking any accountability for it. | ||
| I long suspected that it was much more than the 6,000 dead that he said. | ||
| And they were covering it up. | ||
| We knew it. | ||
| I talked to administrators of a few of the nursing homes. | ||
| They begged Cuomo to reverse his decision. | ||
| By the time he did it in May, when he reversed his decision, it was too late. | ||
| The ship was gone. | ||
| There was too many patients that were in the nursing homes that it spread to. | ||
| And yes, you could stop it from there on in, but it was a complete and utter coverup. | ||
| It was politically based not to give President Trump any credit and It's just a shame that we have a governor in the United States of America who behaves like this. | ||
| And the fact that the entertainment elite gave him an Emmy for his COVID response in his communication to the public, when all the time he was covering it up, I'm angry. | ||
| As an American citizen, as a humanitarian, as a healthcare leader who spent my life taking care of those who are vulnerable, like our senior citizens, I am angry at his decision, and people need to be held accountable. | ||
| Okay, we only have two minutes here, but I want to make sure. | ||
| This came about because his right-hand person, I think the Secretary to the Governor, which is the highest unelected official, she's a power player, right? | ||
| She's a power player. | ||
| She's been doing this since she was like three years old. | ||
| I think her dad's the biggest lobbyist in the state, or a lobbyist. | ||
| She's a grinder. | ||
| She told it on a conference call. | ||
| I think she thought it legislates why we're not giving you the information. | ||
| Now, the number they can't, they've, she said, correct me if I'm wrong, is 9,000 that actually died because of this policy. | ||
| Is that the number? | ||
| No, it's more toward 13,000 in what is categorized as nursing homes. | ||
| In 15,000, if you, if you, excuse me, count the long-term facilities as a whole, but about 13,000 in the nursing homes, long-term care facilities, about 15,000. | ||
| Do we know the Trump Justice Department, I thought was, yeah, go ahead. | ||
| I have to stress, Steve, I can give anybody a pass who makes a mistake if they lacked information, because I'm a logical person. | ||
| This was a novel virus. | ||
| We were all trying to figure it out. | ||
| But I'm telling you, March of 2020, we all knew who was at risk, and we knew our seniors were at risk. | ||
| So it was an irresponsible decision by Andrew Cuomo, Newsom, Whitmore, Murphy, and Even Baker did it for a little bit in Massachusetts. | ||

Wow. | |
| Okay. | ||
| I know the show is on, I think, 10 o'clock on Sunday mornings. | ||
| How do people get to you during the day? | ||
| At mariarionnh and at my website drmariarion.com. | ||
| And the show is on WABC at 10 o'clock every Sunday morning? | ||
| WABC, Uncovering the Truth with Rudy Giuliani, 10 a.m. | ||
| every Sunday. | ||
| They can go to the website to listen live, wabcradio.com, or download the app. | ||
| And I take it for the audience, you're going to be talking about this on Sunday? | ||
| We are. | ||
| Yes, we're going to do it. | ||
| Thank you very much. | ||
| We're going to take a short commercial break. | ||
| This, ladies and gentlemen, is going to be a massive story because we still haven't sorted things out yet. | ||
| The other thing is Newsom in California. | ||
| Remember, the top three power politicians in March of 2020. | ||
| Donald Trump is not in the Oval Office. | ||
| Cuomo is now about to be the recipient, I think, of a massive investigation. | ||
| I think it could potentially even be criminal. | ||
| We'll have to see how that all rolls out. | ||
| And Gavin Newsom is about to recall his path to the presidency done. | ||
| In the second front, what we call the second front against the Obama administration, is about to open up in the Golden State. | ||
| Connect dots. | ||
| The signal, not the noise. | ||
| We're in return with a guy that's firing them up. | ||
| Dan Schultz next. | ||

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. | ||
| OK, there are no coincidences. | ||
| You're not going to see this on my phone, but the story that just dropped in The Hill, one of the most widely read papers for politics in this city, headline, even with acquittal, GOP cease trial ending Trump's shot at future office. | ||
| Sub-headline? | ||
| Senate Republicans, including those who do not plan to vote to convict former President Trump, say this week's impeachment trial has effectively ended any chance for him to become the GOP presidential nominee in 2024, just a couple of hours after Nikki Haley says that she's in for the win. | ||
| They're no coincidences. | ||
| This is the trap that the establishment set. | ||
| Don't defend yourself. | ||
| Just listen to us. | ||
| Don't defend yourself. | ||
| You're not going to get convicted. | ||
| The whole purpose of this was to purge him. | ||
| To purge him. | ||
| And I'm a betting man. | ||
| I'll take that bet. | ||
| You're the same guys that mocked and ridiculed him at 14, the same guys that mocked and ridiculed him at 15. | ||
| You do not understand what this nation is. | ||
| You do not understand what working-class people in this country are. | ||
| You do not understand, or you're in bed with the existential threat to the entire Judeo-Christian West and all mankind, including its own people, Lao-Beijing, the decent, hard-working people of China. | ||
| That would be the Chinese Communist Party. | ||
| It's all changed. | ||
| Your policies are failed policies. | ||
| What you stand for is failed. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| And all the games you're running, all the games you're running, and people should understand, Lindsey Graham is the one that's been knocking on doors for Nikki Haley. | ||
| Part of that corrupt South Carolina Republican Party. | ||
| Knocking on doors for her. | ||
| Opened doors for her. | ||
| The architect of President Trump's defense strategy. | ||
| You're going to see in all its glory today. | ||
| I only need a couple hours. | ||
| Don't need tomorrow. | ||
| So on tomorrow's show, we're going to have Peter Navarro. | ||
| I'm going to have Cortez. | ||
| We're going to have others. | ||
| I think we're going to do the defense that we recommend the President do, which is to get to the receipts. | ||
| No, Ted Lieu ought to phone in or we'll do a special presentation for Ted Lieu because we're not backing off this. | ||
| We're going to use the F word, the fraud word. | ||
| Okay, we've got Dan Schultz is changing political history because you're changing history. | ||
| The left media is all over Schultz now, all over everybody's doing this. | ||
| Raheem, read what our audience is telling us, what people are saying. | ||
| Yeah, Dan, we may need to get you some new web hosting if we continue to drive traffic to the Site and and and tidy up the site. | ||
| I've been told as well. | ||
| So we're gonna help you out with that I got a message yesterday from one of our National Pulse members. | ||
| He said I just got off the phone With the Republican chair. | ||
| I won't say where he is He's a friend of many years and I need to thank the war room you Steve and Dan Schultz We have empty seats in my precinct the 2020 election and all this precinct talk motivated me to act I'm seeking a precinct captain's appointment In about two weeks. | ||
| No need to wait for 2022, says the Chairman. | ||
| It's very likely I'll be in a position to help in 2022. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Wow, powerful. | ||
| So Dan, tell us what the program is. | ||
| The left media now is all over you. | ||
| National Memo, Media Matters. | ||
| You're signing up. | ||
| You're giving access to the deplorables, to MAGA, to actually become members of the Republican Party and actually have their voices heard. | ||
| You've got about four minutes. | ||
| Walk people through what they've got to do and how they get there. | ||
| A whole four minutes, thanks. | ||
| Put up slide number four, sort of summarizes it, what I want to have happen. | ||
| It's a graphic showing what the county committees and the local committee meetings ought to look like, with people lined up, you know, out the door, wanting to come in and become part of this system of ours, which is, you know, The political party we call the Republican Party. | ||
| The actual members are only 400,000 slots. | ||
| There's about 200,000 of those slots that are vacant. | ||
| All you have to do is get involved. | ||
| I got an email this morning, like Rahim said, from a guy in Kansas. | ||
| He said, I watched the program yesterday. | ||
| I called my county chairman yesterday. | ||
| He appointed me on the spot to a really important precinct chair position in my county. | ||
| I took a guy last night who called me yesterday to my organizational meeting last night, a monthly meeting, signed him up. | ||
| He's on fire. | ||
| A guy in California in Kern County. | ||
| Kevin McCarthy's district did it. | ||
| Same thing. | ||
| All he had to do was contact his county chair and they appointed him. | ||
| So you got to get involved. | ||
| So if you put up slide number five, this, this essentially is the goal that I want to achieve. | ||
| And that is to get every precinct committeeman slot of the Republican party filled by a Trump supporter. | ||
| And this is what I wish Donald Trump would have done, but did not do. | ||
| And he can still do it going forward. | ||
| And if he won't do it, then I'm going to do it. | ||
| And then if you can put up slide number 26, that's a graphical representation of simply the power vacuum that we have. | ||
| On the left, you can see that our party is small. | ||
| It's only half of the slots are vacant and it's split between moderates and conservatives. | ||
| We need to transform it to what's on the right. | ||
| We fill up all the vacancies. | ||
| Now we have a 75% conservative majority, 100% strength. | ||
| Going forward, we elect everybody to the positions. | ||
| If you put up slide number 27, that basically shows how, if you peel off people from all of these various interest groups, tea party groups, right-to-lifers, angel moms, Marianne Mendoza has become a PC now. | ||
| Smart Girl Politics, the NRA, the Second Amendment people, pro-military people. | ||
| Just get a few from all of those interest groups, fill up those 200,000 slots, and you really got something. | ||
| So if you put up slide number 29, That's essentially what we need to do. | ||
| We need to keep calm. | ||
| Deplorable swamp drainers. | ||
| Keep recruiting Trump supporters to become PCs. | ||
| Drain the swamp. | ||
| Get rid of the swampers, like Nikki Haley, for example. | ||
| And then my last slide is 22 with all the contact information. | ||

| Okay, so they've got Dan Schultz. | ||
| The left media is all over Dan Schultz right now. | ||
| It's all over this effort. | ||
| We want to make sure that he gets actually more support. | ||
| I want everybody in this audience today, everybody that sees the podcast later, I know you couldn't see the slides, but just go to his site. | ||
| Go to his site today. | ||
| Engage with Dan Schultz. | ||
| Good things are going to happen. | ||
| Action, action, action. | ||
| Okay, we're going to be back at 5 o'clock. | ||
| Rahim's up at 3 at his podcast. | ||
| They're going to start the live coverage of President Trump's defense. | ||
| The defense is going to go, I think, for one day, so make sure you watch it. | ||
| You always say at 3. | ||
| It's a podcast. | ||
| It goes up whenever I want. | ||
| Okay, fine. | ||
| What time do you normally go up? | ||
| I usually record somewhere between 1.30 and 4. | ||
| Okay, perfect. | ||
| So around 4 o'clock they can get it? | ||
| Okay, perfect. | ||
| You've got to listen to the podcast. | ||
| That's where Raheem actually does some work, right? | ||
| He gets engaged, but it's fantastic. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| We'll be back at 5 o'clock. | ||
| We're having Navarro. | ||
| We're going to have the whole team analyzing the President's defense. | ||
| Day one, maybe day only. |
