The virus has now killed more than 100 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. | ||
| Broadly warning Americans to avoid all non-essential travel to China. | ||
| 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 100 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, then the worst happens. | ||

War Room. | |
| Pandemic. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| What is the lesson that America should learn as now we debate the issue of whether or not we're taking in Syrian refugees or refugees from countries where their values are the antithesis of American values, of constitutional values? | ||
| Well, the lesson is not to elect Hillary Clinton. | ||
| And let me walk that back a bit. | ||
| The reason I say that is because, you know, Merkel isn't the only, you know, dumpy old who's for open door mass migration. | ||
| You guys have this, you have this huge election in front of you. | ||
| And actually, this election is not going to be about the economy. | ||
| This election is not going to be about fighting ISIS. | ||
| This election is going to be about the future demographics of the United States of America, because if Hillary is elected, then you can see her doing exactly what Angela Merkel has done. | ||
| Your guest was right to point out that this Angela Merkel policy is a policy that has gone through the Christian Democrat Party, the quote-unquote conservative party in Germany. | ||
| Can you imagine what a left-wing party would do in the United States of America? | ||
| Oh, transform America. | ||
| You'd take 20 million, you know, in a heartbeat. | ||
| And this is exactly what you guys need to be concerned about. | ||
| I understand that Germany seems like it's far away. | ||
| It's really not. | ||
| If it's happening in Western Europe today, it's happening in America tomorrow. | ||
| The White House saying the situation at the U.S.-Mexico border is, quote, not a crisis yet, but it does come as a record number of unaccompanied migrant children are now in custody at the southern border, and the more than 100,000 migrants arrested and encountered in recent weeks is at a five-year high. | ||
| So, whatever you want to call it, it is a dramatic surge. | ||
| Ed Lavandera is out front. | ||
| I mean, it's amazing to see what what's happening right now. | ||
| And let's just start with this disturbing reality. | ||
| A record number of unaccompanied migrant children in custody at the border. | ||
| Right. | ||
| This is a really big challenge because they're unaccompanied and they're there. | ||
| What do you do with them? | ||
| Where do you send them? | ||
| What happens? | ||
| What is the Biden administration going to do about this? | ||
| These are serious pressing questions and the Biden administration overall essentially what they're arguing is that they are trying to implement a much more humanitarian immigration policy compared to the four years of the Trump administration. | ||
| The border and immigration has really been dominated by two things the last few years and that is the remain in Mexico policy. | ||
| You've had some 25,000 migrants sitting in border towns waiting to get permission to enter the U.S. | ||
| and you also have what is known as Title 42, which is what the Trump administration was using because of the coronavirus pandemic to block a lot of people from entering the United States to seek asylum because of the medical issues facing the country in this pandemic. | ||
| So the administration says it needs time to kind of work through all of these problems to implement what they describe as a more humanitarian approach. | ||
| But the bottom line is this is a situation that is quickly changing. | ||
| And many of the administration's critics say that the administration just isn't acting fast enough. | ||
| And what are the most pressing issues? | ||
| I mean, you talk about a record number of children. | ||
| You've got about 100,000 people turned away. | ||
| But what is the most pressing issue that they face right now? | ||
| Well, I think you hit it off the top. | ||
| It's the unaccompanied children that are in custody. | ||
| As we reported, the data shows about 3,400 of these unaccompanied minors. | ||
| No, the crisis is far deeper than that. | ||
| There's a hundred thousand, what, arrests already. | ||
| They had to force the numbers out of DHS. | ||
| These guys are trying to hide the numbers. | ||
| They won't be straightforward in anything. | ||
| Live from an occupied nation's capital. | ||
| The capital's fine because they've walled that off with barbed wire, right? | ||
| And they've got troops. | ||
| They've got, what, 7,000 National Guard troops here going to stay For the indefinite period of time. | ||
| 62nd day of the occupation. | ||
| Still haven't been presented any real information about that. | ||
| Congressman Matt Gaetz is here yesterday. | ||
| He says, hey, he's seen it. | ||
| Doesn't know why they've got a fence around. | ||
| Okay, you're in the War Room. | ||
| It's Wednesday, the 10th of March, Year of Our Lord 2021, now with over 40 million downloads on the podcast. | ||
| John Fredericks Radio Network. | ||
| I want to welcome our new station, just purchased by the John Fredericks Radio Network in Atlanta, WMLB AM 1690. | ||

| A lot going on in Georgia. | ||
| I want to talk about it all. | ||
| Also on Real America's Voice, streaming service of the Trump campaign. | ||

| Also, hashtag World War Pandemic. | ||
| Very honored to have. | ||
| This is the original squad. | ||
| The band's back together for the second time for Raheem Kassam and the one and only Jason Miller. | ||
| Back from vacation. | ||
| Senior strategist for the President and still working as the Senior Strategist, correct? | ||
| And Special Advisor? | ||
| Senior Counselor? | ||
| Senior Advisor. | ||
| Still working with President Trump as he is in Mar-a-Lago and I just spoke with him this morning. | ||
| Gave me a couple of good updates. | ||
| We'll get to a little bit later. | ||
| But Steve... Gotta come in hot and spicy, I'm sure. | ||
| Oh, it's good. | ||
| It's good. | ||
| Folks, stay around. | ||
| It's good. | ||
| By the way, I love the... You're kind of morphing into Greg Allman. | ||
| Yeah, I don't know what it is, but, you know, I have not had a haircut since the CCP virus hit the country, and I'm not going to get one until we get to the Wuhan lab and get the information and we hold the CCP accountable. | ||
| So this could go on for a while. | ||
| It could get a lot gnarlier. | ||
| I wish you'd pick somebody else besides Greg Allman, but that, you know... Okay, fine, fine, I like that. | ||
| Well, I would have gone with. | ||
| He kind of didn't age well. | ||
| Didn't age as well. | ||
| Aged better than Dwayne. | ||
| Too soon. | ||
| But on a serious note, when we're talking about this immigration crisis, what's going on at the southern border, the fact that the media is even starting to talk about this now shows you just how bad it is. | ||
| I want you to tee it up. | ||
| To have Aaron Burnett Who's not a fan, right, of anything the Trump administration does, and the guy at the border even less so. | ||
| To have him even in that tone of, we got a big problem here. | ||
| How do you deconstruct even CNN's coverage? | ||
| Well, they don't know what to do, because they can't go and say that Biden's policies have caused this. | ||
| Everything they want to take it back to President Trump. | ||
| But the fact of the matter is, these are Biden's policies. | ||
| First of all, it was Biden who built the cages in the first place. | ||
| What do they call them now? | ||
| The influx centers, I believe they're calling them. | ||
| Which, by the way, $775 a day. | ||
| I mean, that's more than a night at the Waldorf Astoria. | ||
| And this is, it's completely out of control. | ||
| Caravans are coming up towards the U.S. | ||
| They have no idea what to do. | ||
| And the media is, again, the media is trapped in this box because they don't want to go and criticize Biden. | ||
| That's part of the reason I think why they're treating today's stimulus disaster as if it's the, you know, the Equal Rights Amendment or something that's being passed. | ||
| They're treating that so big so they don't have to go and talk about what's happening at the border. | ||
| That's why we wanted to start the show today on what the real crisis is. | ||
| Remember, actually their language is going to be turned back on them. | ||
| Because they're saying, they're trying to go down and have a more humanitarian program than President Trump had. | ||
| What they're triggering is a humanitarian crisis. | ||
| We've got Michael Yan, just for programming, Michael Yan yesterday. | ||
| We have Michael Yan in Colombia on one side of the Darien Gap, reported yesterday from Colombia. | ||
| He's going to be on the other side in Panama by this afternoon to see the folks coming up from Latin America, of everywhere from the Caribbean, right? | ||
| And that's where the cartels start picking them up as they get into the Triangle Nations, right? | ||
| We've also got Ben Burkham, of Rural America's Voice. | ||
| He'll be back in Yuma today, right, looking at all this. | ||
| We've been doing live coverage and this thing is building. | ||
| It's a tsunami, as President Trump said the other day. | ||
| And we've said, hey, we've been through this drill before. | ||
| When April and May comes, and Texas has had a brutal winter, when it starts warming up, it's like President Trump said, it's going to be a tsunami. | ||
| And Biden's policies They are driving a humanitarian crisis. | ||
| It's the people and citizens of northern Mexico that are getting crushed. | ||
| The 10th city in Tijuana, I think Tijuana's got 20, Burquan was there, 20,000 migrants. | ||
| One 10th city they were in, 1,500. | ||
| All with Biden signs and with the Biden t-shirts. | ||
| Hey Joe, I'm up here. | ||
| Biden, I'm up here because let him in. | ||
| The reason we wanted to start the show today with the Hannity quote of, that is, the young Raheem Kassam, was it in 2015? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Gosh, you know, I was sleeping so badly then. | |
| Because you made it work? | ||
| No, and by the way, that was the one and only Pamela Geller that kept trying to jump in on your... Just stepped on my line. | ||
| That's a duo you won't see on TV or Fox anymore. | ||
| Rahim Ghassan and Pam Geller back to back. | ||
| So you called it back then at 15. | ||
| You said that this was going to drive the 16 actual campaign and was going to be a big problem for Hillary Clinton. | ||
| Yeah, and look, the migrant crisis really, without the migrant crisis there probably wouldn't have been a Brexit. | ||
| People got to grips first-hand with what the European Union wanted to do. | ||
| No Salvini, no Le Pen. | ||
| No Salvini, not this big support for the Sweden Democrats we saw increasing in popularity, Viktor Orban increasing popularity. | ||
| So it had a massive knock-on effect there and it had then, of course, Brexit had a massive knock-on effect here also. | ||
| And I said, you know, what I said there, What was happening in Europe will be happening in America, I said, you know, tomorrow. | ||
| And that was under the presumption that, the presumption that everyone was making then, apart from Jason Miller, that Hillary Clinton would be the next President of the United States. | ||
| Now, that crisis was averted, but in fact, in reality, it was just pushed back. | ||
| And we're living that crisis on the border right now. | ||
| We're going to get Todd Bensman in here who wrote an amazing article for National Pulse, but I want to just reset. | ||
| What are the parallels for what Merkel and the globalists did in 2015 with their arrogance that really triggered a chain of events that we're living with today that Biden, in the same globalist mindset, making the same mistakes that were going to trigger, I think, a crisis that makes that one look like a garden party? | ||
| Well, this is what Todd mentions in his article. | ||
| It's the phrase, it was what Merkel put out to say, you know, we can do this, we can take as many people, it wasn't a set number, it wasn't, hey, if a million of you want to come, or 1.5 million, it was a message to the world, hey, it's a free-for-all and that's the message that people who are coming up to the US southern border now have been getting for months and months they stood on that debate stage remember all the different Democrat candidates and they tried to outdo one another in terms of | ||
|
unidentified
|
how many people right they could lure into the US. | |
| Let's bring in Todd Bensman. | ||
| Todd just wrote an amazing book about the issues with Jihad coming across on the border of the open borders. | ||
| Todd Bensman joins the Center for Immigration Studies in a great piece in the National Pulse. | ||
| Todd, thank you for coming in the War Room today. | ||
| Thanks for having me. | ||
| Appreciate it. | ||
| So give us a summary of the piece. | ||
| We're going to put it up in the live chat. | ||
| Tell us about the crisis in 2015 and today. | ||
| Well, last Thursday, there was a terror attack in Sweden. | ||
| An Afghan migrant who pulled a knife and just went on another one of these slashing sprees. | ||
| And this is just the latest of a very, very long trail, six year long trail of jihadist attacks by migrants who infiltrated over the EU's external borders. | ||
| Uh, we, we saw this first with the Paris attacks in November, 2015, and then again in Brussels, but it didn't stop there. | ||
| And they were all conducted by border infiltrating jihadists who came in among a much larger numbers of camouflaging migrants there. | ||
| All of which was invited in by the European leaders who became their victims later. | ||
| under a kind of a weird ideology about no borders and multiculturalism and a kind of a globalism as you mentioned. | ||
| And so I just point that out because we also have jihadist people who are coming from the Middle East through the Darien Gap where Michael Yan is right now. | ||
| Michael actually has met people from those countries. | ||
| I've met them also in Panama and Costa Rica. | ||
| There are thousands that are coming through that region right now toward the U.S. | ||
| border, facilitated by the very same multiculturalist ideology by the Biden administration. | ||
| And so there are very sharp Pointed parallels between what happened in Europe and what's happening now, but we've got six years of benefit of a laboratory experiment in Europe that they're just squandering. | ||
| Todd, hang on for a second. | ||
| I want to keep you through the break because I want to get back. | ||
| You mentioned this ideology, this globalist multiculturalism. | ||
| I want to get to the bottom and the heart of that ideology. | ||
| This is one that is a self-inflicted, unforced error by the Biden administration. | ||
| Even given all the happy talk they had on the stage and trying to put in paying illegal aliens into the COVID bill. | ||
| We'll talk in detail about this. | ||
| They didn't have to do this, right? | ||
| This is where their ideology is so radical at that next tier. | ||
| Not at the cabinet. | ||
| At the next tier, you see these radicals in there. | ||
| They're forcing this, and this is going to explode, okay? | ||
| In the middle of a pandemic that they keep telling you every day you gotta wear nine masks. | ||
| We're gonna turn in a second. | ||
| We got Jason Miller in the house. | ||
| We got Todd Bensman. | ||
| We're at the border when we return in The War Room. | ||

| Remember, it's the special cotton from Egypt. | ||
| How long do you sleep? | ||
| You sleep alright? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| What do you mean? | ||
| This guy's got the worst neck. | ||
| I sleep like four hours a night. | ||
| Four hours a night, then working with trumpets two hours a night, okay? | ||
| Politics changed after the migrant crisis of 15 in Europe. | ||
| It changed in the United States. | ||
| The rise of Donald Trump is predicated upon bringing manufacturing jobs back here, confronting the Chinese Communist Party, getting us out of being a policeman everywhere in the world, and making America first in our strong national security. | ||
| One of the keys was build the wall and everything and it was the arrogant, it was the managed decline of our country by an indifferent elite, epitomized by Hillary Clinton, right? | ||
| She was kind of the poster child for that. | ||
| You were there because you were with Cruz, I mean you've been a conservative and really worked for not Rhino candidates, you've worked for hardcore conservative candidates, particularly Ted Cruz and all the issues they had to do with Texas. | ||
| How big a deal do you think this is now? | ||
| Oh, this is a massive deal, and it's important to take in mind the way that this has, you know, for the last 25 years or so, basically going back, you know, it's kind of the, where does Ross Perot go to get his apology for the great sucking sound with NAFTA and everything had changed, but we had a number of upstart candidates, people that couldn't quite get across the finish line, a lot of traditional folks who ended up electing a number of positions, but really what we saw in 2015 is the way that immigration, the way that trade, | ||
| The way that Trump was able to go in conjunction with what was going on the rest of the world, change the issue paradigm that we were looking at things. | ||
| And now there's a, Steve, you actually flagged it for me, a great op-ed by Henry Olson in the Washington Post today. | ||
| It is a good reason to go to the Washington Post. | ||
| I'll do it sparingly. | ||
| But it's talking about how, with Roy Blunt leaving, how the Populist Guard is really going to be taking over in the Senate. | ||
| What this is, and David Shore had a great piece in the New York Magazine about a week or two back talking how the Republican Party is now the working class party. | ||
| And this divide between, not just the haves and the have-nots, but it's a little bit of the Hunger Games where you have Washington and Wall Street versus the rest of the country. | ||
| And that's why President Trump was saying a week or two back before CPAC, We don't have a divide in the party, we have a divide between Washington and the rest of the country. | ||
| But this is this crisis that is coming right now. | ||
| They what the media wanted and the insiders want is after President Trump lost, they wanted to sweep populism under the rug. | ||
| The Wall Street Journal from the Never Populist editorial page. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| They want to go just completely sweep under the rug. | ||
| But here's the thing, when you have these migrant caravans that are coming up, and it's not even just Central America, it's South America too. | ||
| You've got Venezuelans, you've got everybody who's coming up. | ||
| But the fact of the matter is, this is a real deal crisis and we can't just turn a blind eye to it. | ||
| Well here's the thing too, and this is why populism, remember in the Rio Grande Valley where President Trump was built and in Southern Arizona, but particularly the Rio Grande Valley, those predominantly Hispanic counties, Hispanic citizens counties, of working-class Hispanics, blue-collar Hispanics. | ||
| Trump's winning them or it's shifting, you know, dramatically. | ||
| What the vote is, and in fact the two Democratic congressmen down there, they're saying, hey if we don't make some changes here, if Trump, the Trump movement keeps pounding on these populist policies, they're going to pick up two more seats in South Texas. | ||
| This is unheard of. | ||
| And the Republican Party could not connect with those people. | ||
| President Trump's policies were connecting with these people. | ||
| And that's why this triggering... Remember, what they want the solutions to be is on the back of working class people. | ||
| Every town is going to be a border town. | ||
| Chicago's got the gangs, you've got the drugs, you've got the human trafficking. | ||
| Every town in America is going to be a border town, but particularly down on the border. | ||
| The burden is going to be put on the Customs and Border, which is the most Hispanic agency we have of anywhere in the federal government, and it's going to be put on working-class Hispanics in the Rio Grande Valley, right? | ||
| I mean, this is, and this is to me, the message, the powerful message of President Trump that resonates, and Biden is indifferent to that. | ||
| This is that, and let's go to Todd Benson for a minute. | ||
| This ideology, this ideology, Raheem and Todd, that Merkel has, what you said is kind of this weird mix, but it actually has an internal logic. | ||
| Right? | ||
| That we're not just open, we're actually, we want you to come. | ||
| Right? | ||
| We want you to come. | ||
| And this is this thing of multiculturalism, of globalism, it's kind of this witch's brew of the global elites. | ||
| So Todd, tell us what your take on that is, and then I want to go to Rahim. | ||
| At that moment, in 2014, 2015, when that was happening, the European leaders, you know, the folks who were in power at that time, were for mostly liberal, on the liberal progressive end of the spectrums over there. | ||
| And they had this idea of repudiating old world Europe. | ||
| You know, one nation, one language, monoculturalism, that sort of thing. | ||
| And they were very sort of stumbling over one another to repudiate that and move into this ideology that holds Uh, you know, that, uh, diversity is the thing to, uh, achieve and is the primary objective of policy. | ||
| And we, uh, and humanitarian values, especially in Germany, um, you know, where Merkel was, you know, they've always been overcompensating since the second world war on those kinds of issues. | ||
| And it just so happened that, uh, when push came to shove and you had a lot of migrants, uh, sitting on the border there, That was the moment to say, yes, this is who we are now. | ||
| I'll point out that the entire first chapter of my book, America's Covert Border War, is dedicated to a thorough analysis of what happened in Europe with border infiltrating jihadists and how that came to be, how the ideology is what caused that. | ||
| And most of those Leaders now began furiously backpedaling, trying to get out of this once the attacks began. | ||
| But the genie was out of the bottle. | ||
| They have not been able to stop the attacks or the infiltration. | ||
| It's still happening on a very large scale. | ||
| Asylum numbers are through the roof over there, and they haven't been able to button that up. | ||
| Rahim, this goes back to, you know, what does Biden want to do first when he gets in? | ||
| He wants to, he's an Atlanticist. | ||
| He wants to get all over NATO. | ||
| He wants to make, look, I'm a veteran. | ||
| NATO is a very important treaty for us, an incredibly important alliance. | ||
| But these guys just can't wait to get back into business with Merkel, to get back. | ||
| It's this globalist mentality. | ||
| And where you see it affecting the American people, and by the way, we're a diverse country, right? | ||
| Look down in South Texas. | ||
| Those are hardworking, Hispanic, blue collar folks. | ||
| 34% of the military, I think 34% of the army. | ||
| I heard that almost 50% of marine rifle platoons are made up with citizens of Hispanic and Latino descent. | ||
| But what is this ideology that drives us? | ||
| As soon as Biden gets in, it's like we had the globalist elite in Clinton. | ||
| We defeated that. | ||
| And now you've got the globalist elite back in their mentality. | ||
| And this is why this is so important. | ||
| And we're going to hammer this every day. | ||
| This is going to be a tsunami in a It's a crisis now, but it's going to explode. | ||
| We've got Michael Yan who's going to be in Panama today on the other side of the Darien Gap. | ||
| Ben Berkman is going to be in Yuma. | ||
| We're covering this every day. | ||
| We started even before Biden took the oath of office because you could tell how they were signaling. | ||
| Raheem Kassam, how is this interconnected with their globalist point of view? | ||
| So the ideology is corporatism, right? | ||
| The ideology is profit and it was very clear when Angela Merkel did what she did that she was doing it for the benefit of major German corporations who were bearing down on her by the time. | ||
| That's something that we don't talk about very much but the major corporations bearing down on the German government to actually allow this mass migrant labor source into the country. | ||
| The same thing happens of course in the United Kingdom, in France, And beyond. | ||
| And the other countries who don't need that labor source, who are perhaps more impoverished countries in and around Europe, the Bulgarians and so on and so forth, they just get told tough luck, right? | ||
| These people are coming to your country or through your country, some may settle, some may take the job, some may displace native workers. | ||
| They ain't coming through Hungary. | ||
| Right, exactly. | ||
| And the Hungarians, remember, I mean, I think the Hungarians, I was talking to Todd about this yesterday on the National Pulse podcast, the Hungarians put up that border fence that they put up in about 30 seconds, right? | ||
| It was the fastest erection. | ||
| That was a great plug, by the way. | ||
| National Pulse podcast surging in the ratings. | ||
| I subscribe to it. | ||
| You guys should subscribe to it. | ||
| We've got to get you on there. | ||
| That would be the biggest plot. | ||
| He's tough to book. | ||
| I know. | ||
| He's tough to get a call back. | ||
| Here's somebody who's not tough to book. | ||
| Elvis has entered the building. | ||
| Congressman Wall Street Betts has walked in. | ||
| Is the clubhouse shut down? | ||
| It is not, but I'm here for specific advice. | ||
| I'm about to walk into an armed services classified briefing about the Chinese Communist Party's malign influence in the Indo-Pak region. | ||
| As I'm walking over to the hearing, I can't help but wonder, Steve, how much of this are we paying for through these trillions and trillions in stimulus packages that go to corporations that are owned in large part by the Chinese Communist Party? | ||
| They're not allowing Eric Swalwell into that meeting, are they? | ||
| He is not on the Armed Services Committee, but he gets all the information on intelligence. | ||
| Well, which means CCP gets it all. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| Through an intermediary. | ||

Right. | |
| Do we need to go there? | ||

| Fang fang. | ||
| Arm candy. | ||
| Okay, we're going to take a short commercial break. | ||
| We're going to return. | ||
| We've got a lot of drop-bys today. | ||
| We'll be back in the War Room in a second. | ||

|
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'm Lauren Boebert, a mom, a small business owner, a defender of freedom. | ||
| Here's what I know. | ||
| You protect what you love. | ||
| President Trump built a big, beautiful wall because he loves America and he wanted to secure our country and protect us from drugs, illegal aliens pouring into our community, and sex traffickers. | ||
| Democrats, they fought him every step of the way. | ||
| And now, welcome to Fort Pelosi, where Democrats decry walls from within their own heavily guarded razor wire wall. | ||
| Democrats don't want to protect you because they don't care about you, but they'll spare no expense protecting themselves. | ||
| We will not build a wall. | ||
| There will not be another foot of wall constructed in my administration. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm not for a wall. | |
| I'm not for a wall. | ||
| It's time to cut the crap and remember, this is the people's house. | ||
| Madam Speaker, tear down this wall. | ||
| Wow, we're now joined. | ||
| Welcome back to the war. | ||
| We're now joined by the star of that, Congressman Boebert and our new intern, Congressman Gates. | ||
| Thank you very much. | ||
| Hey, you know what? | ||
| I was tired of an immigrant doing a job an American could do in this seat, and so I'm glad to be subbing in for Raheem Kassam in his block. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Let's put the picture of Raheem back up on this pillow as a baby. | |
| Well, I was under the impression I was going to be the prettiest one here, but now we have Congressman Gates. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh wow! | |
| Just because I do more makeup. | ||
| His contouring is better. | ||
| You come in hot and spicy. | ||
| First off, how'd you get the idea for doing that amazing video that's gone viral? | ||
| Well, Steve, walls work. | ||
| armed security is the best and Democrats just have their hypocrisy on full display. | ||
| They're showing that they don't give a darn about the American people. They care about themselves when they feel threatened. They want everything that we've been demanding for years. Last week we voted to defund the police and this week we're slashing the second amendment. I'm tired of these hypocrites destroying our country. | ||
| So walking into Fort Pelosi on a daily basis, you know, so the American people need to know what's happening to the people's house. | ||
| I have constituents that can't even visit me in the office that they pay for. | ||
| Do you think they're really scared? Or do you think this is all just pageantry and a show and using the information warfare and using our National Guard as a political prop? | ||
| That's exactly what they're doing. | ||
| This is political theater, just like the metal detectors at the House Chambers. | ||
| That's political theater. | ||
| Well, that was all you. | ||
| You're being a bit modest there. | ||
| Congresswoman Boebert made, as a part of her campaign, that she embraced her Second Amendment rights and she utilized them for her defense, for the defense of her business. | ||
| and her employees and they were so threatened by this Republican woman and Steve, the Republican women in Congress get way worse than the men because of the identity politics and they assume that if you're a mom in you know regular America you ought to be with them and so when they see someone who is a firebrand, who is a spark plug, who is a jolt of energy that we need in the Republican caucus, they come after her specifically and they literally built the infrastructure of | ||
| you know making sure that you had the metal detectors outside of the chamber because of this person and her views. | ||
| Why did it take you to challenge this? | ||
| Why did it take you to make that video? | ||
| Why is leadership every day? | ||
| As we've said, we had an artist came in last week, Lee Brown, who's from Brooklyn but lives in Northern Virginia. | ||
| She was, and she used to be a lefty, she's now super MAGA. | ||
| She was in tears when she went around. | ||
| She says, nobody in America understands the scale of this and the barbed wire and how far it goes down to the White House. | ||
| He says, it's unbelievable. | ||
| And then the next day you had the video. | ||
| Why did it take you to act? | ||
| Why are we not banging on the table to get the information to get? | ||
| Why? | ||
| Why? | ||
| If it's domestic terrorism, if it's the Boogaloos or wherever it is, let's see the receipts. | ||
| Let's see the information people can make it. | ||
| Why does it take you to go out? | ||
| And by the way, amazing video. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But why does it take you to drive, take the narrative up to the next level and put it in people's Steve, I'm doing exactly what I promised the voters back home that I would do. | |
| I said that I would come here and I would be their voice. | ||
| I'm not a politician. | ||
| I was frustrated and fed up with politicians and that's exactly why I'm here. | ||
| I confronted Robert Francis O'Rourke at his presidential rally as a citizen, as a mom, as a small business owner, because I was tired of politicians not standing for freedom. | ||
| But I saw plenty of them giving our freedoms away, and so I used that frustration as motivation to get me here to actually give the people what they deserve. | ||
| Proper representation. | ||
| And I wish that more had stood up from the beginning. | ||
| Now, I arrive in Congress, and some might be mad that we have to go through metal detectors, but I'm pretty pissed off that we have masks and double masks, and I'm pretty sure anal swabs are next for COVID testing. | ||
| That's the day I resign and join the War Room full-time. | ||
| That's coming after Tony Blinken's meeting in Alaska with the senior members of the CCP. | ||
| You'll get to the anal swabs after that. | ||
| So Jason, here's my question. | ||
| You've got Congresswoman Boebert and her team. | ||
| When I was a freshman member of Congress, at this stage of the game, I was still learning how to plug the phone in. | ||
| I was still just trying to hire staff. | ||
| She's producing this high energy, right to the point, A-level communication. | ||
| In your face. | ||
| And we have a conference chair in Liz Cheney who has a massive staff of people, an army of communication staff, and they couldn't do something, you know, one-tenth that good. | ||
| So what do we have to do to realign the communication strategy in the Republican Party where we're not, like, rocked back on our heels saying, please don't hurt us with HR1, but we're out there saying, this is what we believe, this is how we're going to lead. | ||
| I think we're seeing it right here with both the Congresswoman and Congressman here in the War Room. | ||
| This is something different. | ||
| You know, 20 years ago, a much younger version of myself, I was a chief on Capitol Hill for a freshman member. | ||
| And then you're told to stand in your place, be quiet, be at the back bench. | ||
| Go raise money. | ||
| Go raise money. | ||
| Worry about your re-election. | ||
| Laurenforfreedom.com. | ||
| And if you do really well, we might put you on the Education Committee next cycle, or we'll get you promoted to the Science Committee. | ||
| And then in 20 years, you'll be able to get on Appropriations, and it's just total brain damage. | ||
| Now with social media, I think we're seeing exactly with the Congressman and Congresswoman What you guys have done so early in your careers is help lead from the front. | ||
| And this is great. | ||
| If you're a backbencher in Congress now, it's by choice. | ||
| You can get out there and get in front of social media, get out there and talk to people and do it. | ||
| And the way that you have, Congresswoman, triggered the left so badly. | ||
| Actually, one of the questions I want to ask you, have you found any Democrats have come up to you and actually like, I like your style, I like the way that you're getting out there and leading as a freshman, or have they all just gone to their ideological corner and said, no, we just don't want to even talk to any Republican? | ||
| Usually the most contact that I have with Democrats are when I'm on a plane and they're in first class and I'm passing them to go to 27 Delta in the back. | ||
| But that's pretty much the extent of our conversations there, are calling them out for their bull crap on the House floor. | ||
| But unfortunately there isn't anything bipartisan about Congress. | ||
| You're not going to see any Republican bills come to the floor, certainly not anytime soon. | ||
| And so you hear folks saying we need to work on issues together. | ||
| I don't want to work on those issues. | ||
| I don't want to work on H.R. 1. | ||
| I want to dismantle that. | ||
| I don't want to change and federalize our election system. | ||
| But I'm not a backbencher because I'm not here for a career. | ||
| If I don't come back, I get to go home and be a mom. | ||
| I get to raise my children. | ||
| I get to raise my boys to be men, to love America. | ||
| And I get to go back to work at my restaurant in Rifle, Colorado, serving people and doing what I love. | ||
| I took out a five-term incumbent and I worked my tail off every single day. | ||
| I didn't have any money, but I beat him by nearly 10 points because I wasn't outworked. | ||
| I was actually out there connecting with the people, hearing from them, so I could represent those issues here. | ||
| And I think from the video that we saw, and by the way, where do we find that video? | ||
| Gosh, it's all over social media. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's all over social media? | |
| That's on my official account. | ||
| We'll go to the Congresswoman's official account, but by getting out there... Rep. | ||
| Lauren Boeber. | ||
| Yep, Rep. | ||
| Lauren Boeber. | ||
| Keep that up. | ||
| Keep showing people, here's what Nancy Pelosi's doing to Capitol. | ||
|
unidentified
|
H.R. | |
| 1, we've got to keep drilling down on. | ||
| But one thing, these two people are personified. | ||
| You have to have fearlessness. | ||
| It's very easy to come here and just hide and do your committee meetings and raise money for the different committees so you can get on a better committee. | ||
| You two guys have what, courage is contagious. | ||
| Right? | ||
| Courage is contagious and Churchill told us courage is the most important of the virtues because it's upon courage that every other virtue rests. | ||
| And that's what you two guys exemplify and that's why people love you guys because you know that you're attacked every day and you're attacked every day and these are personal attacks. | ||
| They're trying to destroy you personally like they're trying to destroy Trump. | ||
| They understand if you're going to be out in front of this populist movement, Right? | ||
| They understand the power in back of that. | ||
| So they got to Alinsky, the leaders, and that's why they're after you every day, and that's why now you're their new favorite target, right? | ||
| Because you're pissing vinegar, right? | ||
| You're not going to back down. | ||
| So I think people have to understand, it takes a certain quality of just fearlessness. | ||
| That I'm here, I'm not here for a career, I'm here to do a job, and I'm here to represent people who have never had a voice. | ||
| That silent majority. | ||
| Like Adam Kinzinger, right? | ||
| Let's talk about Liz Cheney. | ||
| Liz Cheney comes out. | ||
| She has not been back to Wyoming. | ||
| You couldn't find Liz Cheney in Wyoming with a search warrant. | ||
| She puts the thing out. | ||
| Paul Ryan's hosting the thing. | ||
| When I went and campaigned against her, she lined up the endorsements of Paul Ryan, John Boehner, and Mitch McConnell. | ||
| I mean, but this is the divide in the movement, Steve, and it would be nice if the people on our own team would equip us to win these battles with the best talent. | ||
| Take, for example, in the very near term, we're going to have massive gun control efforts by the Democrats moving through committee, moving on to the floor. | ||
| That's happening, right, and people should understand that's the next wave. | ||
| You've got H.R.1 right now, and they're saying, hey, even if we can't get it through, we're going to jam these back into the state level. | ||
| So Jim Jordan and I wanted Lauren Boebert on the Judiciary Committee. | ||
| Who would be better on the Judiciary Committee to make the argument to beat back the Democrats than a small business owner, someone whose employees carry to protect themselves, someone who rode the energy behind gun owners to the sea? | ||
| And you know what? | ||
| Our leadership would not accede to Jordan and my request to have Lauren on the committee. | ||
| Now, we've got great members of the committee, no criticism of them, but she would have been the number one A player to beat back the Democrats' efforts on gun control, but because she's not establishment, she doesn't tote the note for leadership, she knows who her team is. | ||
| I remember when I was a freshman, they said, Gates, we just need to know if you're a team player. | ||
| And I said, well, I am a team player, it's just you're not my team. | ||
| My team are the 700,000 people I represent in Northwest Florida. | ||
| That's what she represents, but I cannot let her off the war room without naming some of the burgers at her restaurant in Wrightville, Colorado. | ||
| They're the greatest names I've ever heard. | ||
| We got the guac nine. | ||
| You got the Swiss and Wesson mushroom burger. | ||
| You gotta have a rifle burger, because we're in Rifle, Colorado, the only city in America named after a gun. | ||
| And when you go to Shooter's Grill in Rifle, Colorado, you gotta trump your burger, because we're making burgers great again. | ||
| And when you get it trumped, we will cook your burger on a cedar plank. | ||
| It smokes it and it is fabulous. | ||
| Do we have a Bannon Burger? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. | |
| Here's the thing, though. | ||
| What did you learn? | ||
| This is what I'm saying is that we need, no offense, we need fewer lawyers and more entrepreneurs and more citizens. | ||
| What did you learn running that restaurant and doing that that's really got that's the best lesson that is for today in Congress? | ||
| I learned that too many people get here to Washington D.C. | ||
| and forget who they work for. | ||
| Average everyday Americans, we are tired of politicians over-regulating, over-spending, over-taxing, and destroying everything that we are working so hard each and every day to build for future generations. | ||
| And the first thing they do when they get you here is that you've got to give, on your committee assignment, if you want a plum committee assignment, you've got to commit to go raise money for actually the committee and the party. | ||
| Mine cost $75,000 each. | ||
| $75,000 for armed services, $75,000 for judiciary. | ||
| And they're very upfront. | ||
| This is just, this is what the admissions... I mean, my first question was, is anyone here wearing a wire? | ||
| I mean, when they said that, that's what they needed from me in order to get on the committees. | ||
| Are we going to lose you? | ||
| You got to go to your committee meeting? | ||
| Yeah, I got to run to Armed Services. | ||
| It'd be terrible to pay and then not show up to the meeting. | ||
| But I want to go back, which we'll keep the Congressman for a second. | ||
| Talk to us about today and about the CCP. | ||
| This is what I'm saying on this Biden thing. | ||
| They're going to be high-fiving today when they pass it, and tomorrow night he's going to sit in the Oval Office. | ||
| Understand something. | ||
| When you fund this, when you pass this, and then the $4 trillion, they're coming in infrastructure, $2 trillion in infrastructure, $2 trillion in Green New Deal in the fall. | ||
| The CCP, with Wall Street's money and the City of London's money, are going to be buying those bonds. | ||
| Your interest payments of every citizen, listen to this, is going to fund the CCP PLA. | ||
| And that money isn't just sitting in Beijing. | ||
| They're putting it out on the street to reshape the world in the image of the CCP. | ||
| And that is a clear and present danger to the United States. | ||
| I wish we could get the war hawks that are toiling away in the Middle East to focus on the Middle Kingdom, but we know they're testing us right now and we have to respond. | ||
| Russia's a sideshow to a sideshow. | ||
| The Chinese Communist Party in Beijing is the main event. | ||
| Okay, we're going to take a short commercial break. | ||
| We're going to lose Congressman Gates to his committee meeting, but we're going to keep the Congressman from Colorado who's going to be here firing off the football when we return in the War Room. | ||

War Room. | |
| Pandemic. | ||
| With Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| The epidemic is a demon, and we cannot let this demon hide. | ||
| War Room. | ||
| Pandemic. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Okay, you can see the energy levels, how high they are today. | ||
| I've got to announce that the Congressman Boebert also had to take off their votes over there and the things they're working on. | ||
| She's going to be back, though, and we've got an open invitation to Matt Gaetz and the Congressman Boebert. | ||
| Anytime they're in the neighborhood, just drop into the War Room. | ||
| She did actually say she wasn't waiting for an invitation. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, she said she'd just be back. | ||
| So, listen. | ||
| If you want to be a patriot warrior, you want to be in the arena, you want to be in the high-energy war room, you've got to be a health warrior. | ||
| We've got a company working with us today to put forth an entire immune package, right? | ||
| You've got to go to warroomdefense.com. | ||
| We've got our vitamin D3 and our zinc right out of the box. | ||
| They're free. | ||
| You just have to pay shipping and handling, but you can go get all the information. | ||
| Of course, Jason Miller, being a comms director, said, hey, I don't know if I like having my vitamins with the war room defense. | ||
| thing on the top, right? The warning sign. But this is why in a time of a pandemic, remember, in a time of pandemic, that's when you build your immune system, right? Okay, so go there today, warroomdefense.com and go to the click on to the War Room Defense Pack. Take a look at it. | ||
| Get your free vitamins today. Much more coming. Okay, I want to thank all of our partners in making that happen. You're seeing energy. This is Trump energy, by the way, for the audience. | ||
| There's tons of stuff happening. Matt Brainerd in Georgia has got a whole new analysis report. | ||
| We're going to have Brainerd on. There's breaking news out of Wisconsin on the ICs, a new report out of there. There's, in In Arizona today, Mike Lindell and the Great Patriots are going to be doing a big event out there. | ||
| There are things all over the country on the fraud, on what happened November 3rd. | ||
| We're all over top of it. | ||
| We're talking to these guys 24-7. | ||
| We're rolling these out. | ||
| Remember, we're trying to move everything forward here. | ||
| We've got this border crisis. | ||
| You've still got the election situation. | ||
| You've got these massive pieces of legislation. | ||
| Here's what they're doing. | ||
| They're going to pay for it all with COVID. | ||
| And this is one of the things I'm going to ask Miller in the next hour. | ||
| People got to focus on this. | ||
| This COVID-19 bill is the most progressive, I think, radical piece of legislation in 30 or 40 years. | ||
| And it's back with money. | ||
| You don't have to go to appropriation of this. | ||
| It's back with hard dollars. | ||
| They're paying for it all with that, but then they've got H.R. | ||
| 1 on the elections. | ||
| Radical. | ||
| They've got the Equality Bill about destroying young girls' sports and taking away your religious liberty. | ||
| Radical. | ||
| They've got the Amnesty Bill. | ||
| Radical. | ||
| Amnesty Bill may be already killed because it's too radical, even for these people. | ||
| The American people are waking up to this. | ||
| But we're going to fight this. | ||
| You know, block by block, you've got to contest it. | ||
| You can't curl up in a ball now. | ||
| I know a lot of people saying, we lost the election, they stole it, they've got the machines to get out of this, they've got to curl up. | ||
| You know, we had Maggie on yesterday, she's going to come back tonight to continue our discussion. | ||
| You understand, you know, in the war room, we're just not going to buy into that. | ||
| We understand, there may be some dark days, but you've got to fight, fight, fight, and contest this every day, Mr. Jason Miller. | ||
| In fact, just before I came in here, I gave President Trump a call and he's heading out to the golf course and gave me a couple of messages to share. | ||
| One of which was, tell Steve that he's lucky that I like him. | ||
| That was the first message. | ||
| Second thing is the media wants to forget what happened in 2020. | ||
| I haven't, and we have a lot of work we have to do. | ||
| Did he say that? | ||
| He said that. | ||
| He said the media might want to forget what happened in 2020. | ||
| I haven't. | ||
| We're not going to forget what happened, and we've got to stop this bill. | ||
| When he talked about H.R. | ||
| 1, we have to stop this. | ||
| We cannot let this go through. | ||
| Democrats are trying to rig this thing for every election going forward. | ||
| Wait, but hold on. | ||
| You were telling me in the break that he said that everybody needs to subscribe to the National Pulse Podcast? | ||
| No, he said that. | ||
| President Trump said that after you have Jason Miller on as a guest. | ||
| That's a big catch. | ||
| That's a big catch. | ||
| This guy's tough to book. | ||
| On H.R.1, let's go to that and let's go to, look, it's obviously a huge Wound of November 3rd, right? | ||
| And they're silencing everybody. | ||
| They don't want to talk about it. | ||
| They don't want to address it. | ||
| But they can't fight the state legislatures and they can't fight the courts. | ||
| There's things percolating up. | ||
| They're just not going to be able to deny, correct? | ||
| You've got this Matt Brainerd is going to come out with this analysis and supposedly he's naming names of actually down to the street address of where and not on the machines. | ||
| This is the good old-fashioned, you know, didn't live in the didn't live in the state too young to vote. | ||
| Illegal aliens in Wisconsin. | ||
| You've got this explosive thing about the clerks there with the ICs and the early voting. | ||
| You've got all this. | ||
| Now the counteraction in Iowa, across the country, you're seeing people step up and say we can't have this madness anymore. | ||
| Is President Trump going to get back engaged in this fight and kind of lead from the front like he was doing between November 3rd and the 6th? | ||
| Yes, and there are a lot of things that are going on behind the scenes now in coordinating with some of these different state-level groups or state-level legislators that are going to actually make these changes because this is where it needs to happen. | ||
| Everyone forgets that the whole reason why we have these court fights, so many of the court fights after 2020, is because they circumvented the state legislatures. | ||
| And so that's what we're going through and making sure in advance of 2022 in advance of 2024, we go and get these corrected because it's everything from Zuckerberg and the drop boxes to the chain of custody to the all the concerns all the way across the board. | ||
| But I mean, look at Wisconsin and even Wisconsin with the 4-3 Supreme Court decision. | ||
| They basically said, hey, you guys are totally right. | ||
| We're just not going to give you the remedy that you want. | ||
| What about these weak-kneed Republicans at the executive branches, particularly in Georgia and in Arizona, that had every opportunity to have hearings? | ||
| What is his thinking about this, particularly as these guys come up for races? | ||
| Look, I was an advocate of, just like in California, the recalling Gavin Newsom, they should be recalling Kemp in Georgia. | ||
| Where do you think the President stands with his Understanding and relationships with particularly senior executives in Arizona and in Georgia. | ||
| So, Ducey is termed out. | ||
| So, he'll be leaving after 2022. | ||
| So, he'll be an open seat there. | ||
| But he's got big plans. | ||
| I mean, he wants to run for Senate. | ||
| Ducey sees himself as President of the United States. | ||
| That will never happen, you know, when you get single-digit approval in Arizona. | ||
| But this guy's got a massive ego and big ambitions, right? | ||
| Oh, he wants to be President, ultimately, of course. | ||
| Brian Kemp, the President, has already said that he'll be looking for someone else to support in that race. | ||
| Nothing brand new on that front. | ||
| Tracking a couple of different folks who are making some noise, but as we saw those poll numbers right around, I want to say it was in December, maybe early January, Doug Collins isn't going to run for governor against them. | ||
| I wish he would, but he would stop. | ||
| He's on the John Fredericks Radio Network. | ||
| He's got a show three o'clock every afternoon on fire. | ||
| He would double Brian Kemp in the primary if he ran. | ||
| What about, real quickly, anything else in legislation? | ||
| You say you're working with groups. | ||
| You're getting the feedback and you guys are in the constant flow of this information that's coming up as new reports and analysis are coming up. | ||
| Remember, they're having a tough time getting in Georgia, they still get the 600,000 non-chain of custody mail-in votes, the Georgia star Michael Patrick Leahy, but you guys are getting fed that information, this analysis and these reports are being done? | ||
| Being fed the information, the President's political team is still kind of revamping and reorganizing with an eye towards some of these. | ||
| Some of these are best handled by some of the different, whether it be non-profit or state groups, are better equipped to go and do it. | ||
| His blood's going to boil when he sees this stuff. | ||
| This analysis is going to continue to be brutal. | ||
| I don't know, how's the media going to be handling it when you're going to have now hard evidence of certain anomalies in Arizona and places like Georgia? | ||
| They'll say Republicans are trying to steal future elections. | ||
| They'll turn around and use the exact what they did. | ||
| Voter suppression. | ||
| It's racism. | ||
| They'll use what they did against us. | ||
| We're going to take a short commercial break. | ||
| We're getting to the second hour. | ||
| We've got Jason Miller is now firmly ensconced here and the two congressmen have gone over to take their committee meetings. |
