Well the virus has now killed more than a hundred people in China and new cases have been confirmed around the world. | |
You don't want to frighten the American public. | ||
France and South Korea have also got evacuation plans. | ||
But you need to prepare for and assume. | ||
Broadly warning Americans to avoid all non-essential travel to China. | ||
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. | ||
It's Wednesday, it's the 14th of April, the year of our Lord, 2021. | ||
We're live from the nation's capital. | ||
You're in the War Room. | ||

Of course, nationwide everywhere. | ||
John Frederick, Radio Network, Real America's voice, the streaming service of the Trump revolution, up on the bird. | ||
And on cable, on Dish, and Comcast, Roku, Pluto, all of it. | ||
And of course, in Mandarin, on GNU's GTV. | ||
There's so much going on today, we've got to get right into it. | ||
Packed, packed show. | ||
Earlier on Maria Bartiromo, Dr. Peter Navarro. | ||
Talking about subjects we've talked in the world for a year and a half, blowing up people's heads. | ||
We're going to get to all that in the 11 o'clock hour. | ||
Sean Parnell is going to join us. | ||
We've got Amanda Head live from Liberty University on the Equity for Africa conference. | ||
Mike Pompeo spoke last night. | ||
She talked to him. | ||
You've got Dave Brat down there. | ||
A lot going on. | ||
My co-host today, joining Raheem Kassam. | ||
My wingman is the one and only investigative reporter for the National Pulse. | ||
It's not the one and only anymore. | ||
They're actually just staffing up over there. | ||
Got some real investigative reporters to augment the one, the only, Natalie Winter. | ||
Thank you for joining us. | ||
And boy, she's coming in hard today on Dr. Jeffrey Sachs. | ||
Talk about a phony. | ||
Oh my God, it's gonna be so much fun doing this. | ||
Okay. | ||
A man that needs no introduction. | ||
We're doing Signal and Noise. | ||
We're going to talk about Georgia. | ||
We're going to have some stuff about Boris. | ||
We've got political updates. | ||
But J&J, all of it. | ||
We're going to get to all of it. | ||
But Signal, not Noise. | ||
Brexit and the Trump victory in 2016, inextricably linked. | ||
To talk about Trump's massive win in November 3rd, you've got to look no further than the politics of kind of working class and the politics of working people and the middle class in London. | ||
And in England, very tied to kind of what's happening. | ||
Always about six months to a year ahead of us, right? | ||
The UKIP people, a little ahead of the Tea Party. | ||
eventually making their impact, although the Tea Party in 2010 also brought them forward, that they brought us forward. In a major poll yesterday in Bloomberg that showed 20% of the people that voted to remain, 20% of the people that voted to be part of the globalist system and to destroy the sovereignty of the United Kingdom, 20% of those have said, now I made a mistake and I would vote to leave, seeing what's happened and hasn't been perfect, been far from | ||
But yes, I understand the sovereignty of our country is more important than being part of this globalist nonsense that the EU has. | ||
I want to bring in Nigel Farage, head of UKIP, the man who delivered, I think, I think probably one of the most important political victories in the history of the United Kingdom. | ||
And we got his, at the time, his junior, his mini-me, Rahim Ghassan is my, is our ward, I guess, our ward of the state here. | ||
Nigel, we got a lot to go through. | ||
Coinbase just went public. | ||
What's the market cap of Coinbase? | ||
Just went public. | ||
Bitcoin crossed a $1 trillion mark, fastest entity ever to cross a trillion dollars. | ||
Beat Apple, beat Microsoft, beat every company to a trillion dollars. | ||
Bitcoin today, over a trillion dollars. | ||
Total market cap. | ||
unidentified
|
Coinbase, as soon as I teach, Nigel, as soon as I teach basics- All I know is I got some Dogecoin a couple of months ago and it's doing great. | |
Exactly. | ||
Gold, silver or crypto, go long. | ||
Okay, Nigel, walk us through this poll and what does this mean and what does it mean not just for politics in the United Kingdom but the populist nationalist movement throughout the world and particularly in the good old United States of America? | ||
Well, until I came along, there were people who were Eurosceptic. | ||
They were questioning about the amount of power that the unelected elite were gathering in Brussels. | ||
But really, I was the first political figure to come along in the European Parliament across the whole of Europe to say, you know what? | ||
This thing is beyond fixing. | ||
The model is just awful. | ||
And rather than try to improve something that is so totally flawed, it's time to leave now for daring. | ||
to suggest such a thing. | ||
I was demonised, mocked. | ||
But you know what? | ||
The British public, and you were quite right, Steve, in your introduction, it was predominantly working people who did not listen to Project Fear, did not listen to the terrible things they were told would happen to them, voted to leave. | ||
But that wasn't the end of it, because the globalists refused to accept the result, spent three and a half, nearly four years trying to delegitimise it, But now it's done. | ||
It's over. | ||
We're out. | ||
And the vaccine rollout has proved that it is better to make your own decisions in your own country where the people in charge are directly accountable to electors rather than give it to a foreign bureaucracy. | ||
And just think about this. | ||
The vaccine decision for over 400 million people in the EU was taken by a woman from Cyprus with a degree in psychology with no particular life achievements whatsoever, who wasn't voted in, who can't be removed, and no one even knows her name. | ||
And so what you've seen is the bureaucracy making a complete and utter mess of it. | ||
And in the UK, and all right, Boris may not be perfect, but in the UK, we put it in the hands of somebody from private equity, directly accountable to the government. | ||
And, you know, we are running vaccination rates four or five times that. | ||
of the European Union. | ||
And the British public have seen this. | ||
And that Bloomberg poll tells you there are now a significant number of people saying, hey, you know what? | ||
We're better off out. | ||
And the big news for the UK is that the debate that people like me were somehow mad, bad and dangerous, now those that want to rejoin the European Union, the boot is on the other foot. | ||
They're the ones that look crazy. | ||
Now, the knock on from this is interesting. | ||
As I said, UKIP was the first party ever to come along and say leave. | ||
In the last couple of days, we've seen the AFD, the Alliance for Deutschland, who are a Eurosceptic Conservative party, and they have announced that in this year's general election in Germany, they'll be campaigning for Germany to leave the European Union. | ||
So the success of Brexit is now spurring on other political movements across Europe And the implications of that, of course, are just big for Britain and Europe. | ||
They're big for the USA, too. | ||
You know, the globalist elite, the structures they put in place, have been shown, frankly, not to work. | ||
And I know it's a very difficult time at the moment for Trump supporters and for conservatives, you know, seeing what the Biden administration is doing. | ||
But don't give up hope, because I tell you what, the populist revolution is far, far from over. | ||
No, we're at the very beginning. | ||
By the way, we're going to have Beatrice von Storch. | ||
We're going to try to get her on Friday to talk of AFD, Alternative for Deutschland, to talk about this. | ||
They want to get out of the European Union now. | ||
And boy, the European Union is basically the Franco-German project. | ||
So that's quite a shocker. | ||
I want to go back for our audience, particularly some of the audience members sitting there going, hey, it's all over. | ||
You know, Trump won, but we didn't close. | ||
You know, Biden's doing all this. | ||
You've got the vaccine rollouts here. | ||
You've got everything going on. | ||
Trillions of dollars being spent. | ||
I want to go back though, and this is what I keep telling people, hey, things can start small and get big if you stick to it. | ||
When did you first mention, I hear that you're a skeptic, I know you're skeptical, but I got an idea. | ||
Let's leave. | ||
When you first said that, how many people did you really have around you? | ||
What was your initial reception? | ||
You kind of glossed over it. | ||
No, you were brutal. | ||
That's when I first started watching. | ||
I said, who is this guy? | ||
This guy's a madman. | ||
And the reason your content came up, you were so hated. | ||
It was the Guardian at the time. | ||
Everybody was pushing all your stuff to try to destroy you, try to kill it in the crib. | ||
So how big was it when you first got the idea and first started rolling on, let's leave the European Union? | ||
Well, it wasn't just the Guardian and the BBC and the leftists, Steve, that were attacking me. | ||
It was actually the British Conservative Party. | ||
The British Conservative Party had completely sold out to the EU globalist agenda. | ||
And there were one or two sceptical voices in there, but no one, no one saying leave. | ||
For me, this really happened back in the early 1990s. | ||
We pegged sterling against the Deutsche Mark in a basket of European currencies. | ||
I thought it was a mad thing to do. | ||
It led to record bankruptcies, record house repossessions. | ||
And that was the moment I realized, just this whole thing, you know, the train is going in the wrong direction. | ||
So back in those early days, I mean, even those people, Steve, that were close to me, you know, business associates, friends, family, I mean, everyone thought I'd been smoking something because this was an argument that just wasn't to be had. | ||
And frankly, when UKIP began, you know, it had about 250 people involved in it. | ||
They were nearly all Second World War veterans who had fought for sovereignty and believed in sovereignty. | ||
And it was a very, very little acorn. | ||
And it did take a long time. | ||
But from it, a mighty oak tree did grow. | ||
And I always say to people, you know, if you are taking on the consensus, if you're taking on the establishment, there are two qualities that you have to have. | ||
The first is consistency. | ||
A clear, consistent message. | ||
And the second is patience. | ||
You have to wait. | ||
Your time. | ||
But no, I'm absolutely... In a way, I guess I was the first populist, really, of this revolution that we've seen over the last few years. | ||
But as I said earlier, and I'm convinced of, we've got a lot, lot further to go with this. | ||
And so Americans who are feeling depressed, please take heart. | ||
The lessons I learned coming off the Tea Party when I first got involved in this, I made these films and met Andrew Breitbart and really became with Andrew a supporting character in the 2010 election, the sweep of the Tea Party movement. | ||
And by the way, tomorrow I think is the 12th anniversary of the founding of the Tea Party. | ||
We're going to have some Tea Party veterans on here to talk about that, Ken Blackwell and others, Michael Patrick Leahy, to talk about the founding of the Tea Party. | ||
But, the lessons I learned from you, in going to the United Kingdom, and particularly that European election, I think it was in the spring of 2014, what I learned from you, and you really were the first populist on a global basis, right? | ||
You were the forerunner, you're the John the Baptist for Trump, right? | ||
And the lessons I learned from you, really going around Midlands England with Rahim, and even Delingpole, and pointing in the direction that, and what you were saying, and how it was resonating to people, and I said, this is very close to the United States. | ||
Today, you see the fight we have with the establishment here, Nigel. | ||
What would be your advice to the Trump base, to the MAGA base, as it's now in this conflict with John Boehner, the ghost of John Boehner is back up. | ||
He's on Fox all the time, hawking his book. | ||
You've got McConnell. | ||
Lindsey Graham today is out on Hannity last night. | ||
No, we've got to stay in Afghanistan for another 20 years. | ||
What would be your guidance to the MAGA movement, to the America First movement, in taking on the Republican establishment? | ||
Well, there's no point in taking on the Republican establishment. | ||
They've got to take it over, Steve. | ||
I mean, that's the point. | ||
You know, they've got to take it over because, you know, you know better than me, the huge rafts of the establishment Republican Party never accepted Trump, never really accepted the MAGA agenda. | ||
So you've got to take it over. | ||
And that's not always as hard as people think, you know, because, you know, Much of the work that's done in politics is voluntary. | ||
And if people are prepared to put themselves forward and get themselves into positions in the local Republican parties, they can begin to turn things around. | ||
So activism, grassroots activism, is key. | ||
But I also think, I really do believe, that the biggest problem the conservative movement in America has got is disillusionment. | ||
Because they see what's happening in the cities. | ||
They see the woke agenda. | ||
They see a Biden administration threatening to tear up the Constitution and everything that they've understood since they were born. | ||
And the great danger with these things is people say, oh, well, you know what? | ||
We agree with you, but it's all too late. | ||
We've lost. | ||
They need to have that belief that the voice of the silent majority We call it Middle England, you would call it fly-over-state America. | ||
They've got to believe that that voice is going to be heard, and that the midterms are their first real opportunity to do so. | ||
Okay, we're going to take a short commercial break. | ||
We're going to come back with Nigel Frys. | ||
Before we take the break, Nigel, we'd like to ask you to stay over social media. | ||
How do people follow you? | ||
People are already blown up on the phone, but how do they actually get to you and follow your writings, follow your thinking today, social media, web page, all that? | ||
Well, nfaraj.com is probably the easiest, Steve, but I'm not hard to find. | ||
I'm out there. | ||
Okay, we're going to take a short commercial break. | ||
When we return, we're going to have Nigel Farage. | ||
We're going to talk about the crown and Bitcoin. | ||
Talk about the crown and Coinbase. | ||
So it shows you the range of Nigel Farage. | ||
Populism, nationalism, the crown, was it Prince Philip, the ceremony, Funeral that's coming up this week. | ||
And of course, the explosion in digital currency. | ||
Coindesk, I think, goes public today in a roaring IPO. | ||
Bitcoin crosses $1 trillion in value. | ||
The Chinese Communist Party's focus in taking down the United States is, guess what? | ||
Destroy the dollar. | ||
That means to destroy your livelihood, destroy your family, destroy your financial well-being. | ||
All next with Nigel Farage in the War Room. | ||

Let's go back to Nigel Farage, one of the leading voices in populism and economic nationalism throughout the world. | ||
An individual who, against all odds, Change the direction of the history of his people? | ||
How many people can say that? | ||
That's why I say, I know Nigel Farage, I know Donald Trump, two individuals who changed the arc of their country's history. | ||
That is very rare, very rare in a lifetime. | ||
So it's, and I had a ringside seat to both. | ||
Nigel, I want to go to Prince. | ||
As you know, I'm an Irish Republican, right? | ||
Maybe not a member of the IRA, but I've never really been big in the aristocracy. | ||
I think it's one of the reasons, you know, as I say, people in the United States were kicked out of every decent country in the world. | ||
That's how we got here, right? | ||
And particularly the Bannon family and the Gately family. | ||
In Europe, you know, the aristocracy to me has just always been just a totally complete disaster for the folks of Europe. | ||
But Prince Philip, he stands for something actually just different in the crown. | ||
He's kind of like Trump. | ||
He's the last of a generation of a man's man. | ||
I mean, one of the reasons I think people are finding him endearing now is he had such a cussedness to it, such a kind of an old school, you know, he was really Mountbatten's son, right? | ||
And was very much like Lord Mountbatten in how he looked at the world. | ||
What's your perception of this? | ||
Look, he was an incredible man. | ||
Of course, a man forged very much by World War II, his service in the Royal Navy, for which, of course, he was mentioned in dispatches. | ||
He, of course, married Princess Elizabeth when they might have expected to have decades of marriage before she became Queen. | ||
But, of course, what happened, her father got ill, died aged 56, and so suddenly this young alpha male, you know, war hero, | ||
suddenly is consort to a very young Queen and effectively had to give up much of his life to assist Elizabeth II in her duties and for nearly 70 years uncomplainingly supported the Queen in what she did and that isn't important just in the United Kingdom it's actually important because the Queen is head of the Commonwealth an extraordinary group of British former colonies with 2.5 billion people living in it | ||
And I think that it's done a great deal of good. | ||
But as a man, I mean, look, he was alpha male, no question about that. | ||
He held no truck with woke culture, with political correctness. | ||
He said what he thought. | ||
And he also had a terrific sense of humor. | ||
So, Steve, let me tell you a quick little story, all right? | ||
The first time I met him formally was in 2000. | ||
It was a drinks reception at Buckingham Palace. | ||
I was a very young MEP, astonished to be invited, to be honest with you. | ||
So you line up, and the footman calls out your name, and you meet the Queen, and you bow, and you say your piece. | ||
unidentified
|
You know, thank you, ma'am. | |
And then I moved on to Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh. | ||
And he recognised me. | ||
He said, ah, yes, he said, you're that MEP chap, aren't you? | ||
I said, yes, I am, your Highness. | ||
I said, but I have to tell you that even though I'm now a member of the European Parliament, I'm not a supporter of the institutions of the European Union. | ||
To which he looked at me and leaned forward and said, yes, I can quite understand that. | ||
I mean, nobody, when it came to Brexit, Steve, nobody was in any doubt as to where the Duke of Edinburgh stood. | ||
Nobody ever said it in public. | ||
And a lovely sense of humour. | ||
He told a super, another quick story for you, but people will enjoy it. | ||
He was at the surrender, you know, MacArthur taking the Japanese surrender. | ||
Mountbatten, of course, there too, with the British and Commonwealth forces. | ||
And Philip was there at the surrender. | ||
And then he said, 20 years later, he was on an official state visit to Japan with the Queen, and one of the Japanese press asked him whether he'd been to Japan before. | ||
And he said, no, never, which he said proves I'm not always quite as tactless as people think. | ||
So just a very warm human being, a great man. | ||
He set up something called the Duke of Edinburgh award scheme. | ||
which millions of children have been through. | ||
And that's to get children out of the classroom, out of tower blocks, out of the big cities, into the big open air, to go out and camp and hike and do all these things. | ||
And that will be one of his lasting legacies. | ||
And I take your point, Steve, about the aristocracy in Europe. | ||
But you know something? | ||
The British royal family is a very unique thing. | ||
It is still very much loved. | ||
Nigel, for our audience, what would you recommend over the next couple of days? | ||
I guess the funeral is going to be on Saturday. | ||
What should they look for and what's the best way for our audience, do you believe, to kind of watch this? | ||
Well, it's going to be live. | ||
It'll be 8 p.m. | ||
Eastern time, USA time, and it'll be on the networks. | ||
Sadly, very, very sadly, because of coronavirus and because of government restrictions, They're urging the public not to attend. | ||
And that's very, very sad, because I think, you know, in normal times, you know, if we had the funeral service in Westminster Abbey, and then the cortege went to Windsor, about, you know, 25 miles away for a private burial, I mean, you would have seen, I promise you, you would have seen hundreds of thousands of people, maybe even seven figures, outlining the streets to show their respect. | ||
So sadly, you won't see that. | ||
But I think what you will get if you watch the service is a eulogy which just gives you an idea of this man's level of honesty, decency, service, belief. | ||
And I have to say, the contrast between him and his grandson Harry and Meghan couldn't be greater. | ||
I want to go now, I want to pivot from the crown to kind of the new crown, which is digital currency. | ||
I think Coinbase today will go public at a $100 billion valuation. | ||
People on Wall Street are saying it's way overpriced. | ||
You've got, I think, collectively, Bitcoin has now over a $1 trillion market. | ||
It was the quickest ever to get to a trillion dollar market capitalization, essentially. | ||
You've got the Chinese have made a bold statement and a throwdown that they're going to take on the U.S. | ||
dollar by a government-backed, a central bank, Chinese central bank-backed digital yuan, which is their currency, the RMB. | ||
Nigel, people don't realize that you are a commodities guy, you're a finance guy, you understand capital markets. | ||
What's your sense on this digital currency, blockchain, all of it? | ||
What should be people thinking about as this starts to have a major impact now in the financial and economic world? | ||
Well, it really is, isn't it? | ||
Because what's actually happening is cryptocurrencies are now becoming accepted. | ||
You know, PayPal, one of the first companies that said they would accept them. | ||
And we now see institutional investors recognizing that crypto is now an identifiable asset class. | ||
What has driven it, of course, In this remarkable way is, without any doubt, the fact that with fiat currency, you know, we have governments creating money on a scale we could never even have imagined in the past. | ||
I mean, it's truly astonishing. | ||
And I think all of us who study this thing closely believe that inflation is coming. | ||
It's coming fast down the track. | ||
It's not very far away. | ||
And of course, you have to be over 50 to remember what inflation means. | ||
Inflation means that your money devalues significantly every year. | ||
So the first reason that people are putting money into crypto is that it's a hedge against something going horribly wrong because of the way governments are living so far beyond their means and false money creation. | ||
One of the second reasons is that we have had rising stock markets now for over a decade, year after year after year. | ||
And if you look around the edges, say the NASDAQ, for argument's sake, and you actually look, at the price earnings ratios on NASDAQ. | ||
You know, you'll see that many of these companies that are trading at big values have frankly never even made a profit. | ||
I think there are people looking at the stock market saying, well, a correction is going to come soon. | ||
Where do we go? | ||
That helps for crypto. | ||
At the moment, gold and silver have not caught up with this, but I do actually think they will at some point in the next year or two. | ||
So, in many ways, Steve, crypto is liberating, right? | ||
It's liberating, it's free, but China are now choosing to try and use this to do the very opposite, to create, you know, the digital yuan, which they want to become a global means of exchange, they'd like to threaten the dollar, and far from being liberating, it'll be used as a weapon of control. | ||
So we'll have to see how China develops with that. | ||
But as far as the cryptos that we know and are trading at the moment are concerned, in terms of common usages, it's simply only just begun. | ||
We know what happened to the UK after the pound stopped being the reserve currency. | ||
That's the same thing will happen to the United States when we stop being the reserve currency. | ||
Last thing, because I know you're a keen student of history, are we getting sucked into a pan-European war on the situation in Ukraine? | ||
Got about a minute. | ||
Nigel, what would you warn the American people and the Biden administration about Ukraine? | ||
Whatever our view of Mr Putin is, and I wouldn't personally take him home on a Sunday afternoon for tea with my mum, but what we've done in the Ukraine is madness. | ||
We've had British government ministers, many American voices, saying to the Ukraine, you know, come and join the European Union. | ||
Come and join NATO. | ||
And what you're doing with that is you're poking the Russian bear with a stick. | ||
So don't be surprised And I think we've actually, you know, I'm really going to say this, we've provoked a situation that was completely and wholly unnecessary. | ||
I really do believe that. | ||
Amen. | ||
Nigel Farage, we know how to get to you. | ||
Thank you very much for your work and your guidance. | ||
Nigel Farage, the world's first global populist. | ||

Thank you very much, sir. | |

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, I want to thank you. | ||
By the way, in the meantime, we're going to talk about J&J. | ||
We're going to get Boris Epstein on. | ||
We've got Amanda Head from Liberty University. | ||
A lot going on today. | ||
Rahim, one thing about Nigel Farage, he's got great range, right? | ||
There's no one I know that can talk about the details of world history, of UK history. | ||
Very knowledgeable about digital currency, not just the currency itself, but also blockchain, upon which those currencies rest. | ||
Knows the crown and really was the first populist, kind of the forerunner to Trump. | ||
Right on a global stage and what people should out there. | ||
They're sitting there going. | ||
Hey, you know, I'm very worried about this country. | ||
I'm very worried about things. | ||
I you know, I see us being crushed every day by the by the by the the Linda Forrester Rothschild's the confident of Carlos Slim every day that it's very tough. | ||
How do we organize regroup when you guys started? | ||
With the idea of leaving the EU, there was nobody on your side. | ||
This was the Grundunes to Grundunes. | ||
He said he had 250 people. | ||
I mean, it was like 250, you know. | ||
It was you and a couple other people. | ||
And that concept eventually led to, I think, one of the greatest moments in the entire history of the United Kingdom. | ||
Yeah, well, and there is a parallel here. | ||
I mean, immediately after the last election here, I was... I mean, I still think I am far more open to the idea of a separate entity aside from the GOP being the mechanism by which conservatives, you know, make their voices heard. | ||
And, you know, because we went through this. | ||
The Conservative Party was the high ground of Euroscepticism, but Euroscepticism was, hey, you know, there are lots of things wrong with the EU, and yes we should always have an eye on the door, but really we want to change it from the inside. | ||
And that was tried again and again and again, and it ended with this Real disappointment that we experienced under David Cameron as Prime Minister who had kind of gone in there I mean, I remember back in the days with I think David Cameron was even quoting Enoch Powell once upon a time in the parliamentary chamber and then once he became Prime Minister He was Paul Ryan. | ||
I mean he became, I mean, he makes Paul Ryan look like Donald Trump, you know. | ||
Because of woke culture. The British media basically turned that guy into total wokeness. | ||
But really, and you know, there's now this investigation into him and his lobbying deals that he's got going on. Really it wasn't just a, you've got to understand, somebody like David Cameron came from money, but he always wanted more money, right? He always wanted to be the hyper, hyper, hyper elite, not just the simple elite. And so this, you know, the filthy Lucre was crossing his palms over and over again, different deals with the China, the nuclear power plant and all of this stuff. | ||
And that's effectively why he stood down after Brexit as well. | ||
He said, hey, it can make more money outside than inside. | ||
Well, representing the Chinese Communist Party, the CCP. | ||
He's the one that got that. | ||
He saw very early what the CCP was doing. | ||
He went to their side and did their bidding. | ||
And so that was a very difficult decision, I think, at the time for Nigel to turn his back on the Conservative Party in the late 90s and say, we are going to set up our own party to do this. | ||
And obviously people thought he was a nut. | ||
And there were parts of the idea that were nutty, right? | ||
But there were several distinct strategies that I think people at the time didn't quite realise. | ||
Number one, the UK Independence Party wasn't just a separate party trying to attract votes away from other political parties. | ||
It was also kind of a whip on the Conservative Party. | ||
If they couldn't get their way, and if they couldn't get their members elected, the sheer threat of them at the ballot box was enough to pull the Conservative Party's manifesto to the right. | ||
And that had an absolutely huge impact. | ||
That's what we do here in the War Room every day. | ||
Yeah, and what do you think I learned here? | ||
I mean, that's exactly it. | ||
And so, while UKIP never actually succeeded massively as its own electoral force, it is possibly the largest, you know, most impactful non-major political party in the United Kingdom ever, ever. | ||
And Nigel Farage is probably the single most impactful modern politician in Europe ever. | ||
Without being a member of any of the major political parties. | ||
Yes, extraordinary. | ||
There's been a decision. | ||
That's where I go to precinctstrategy.com today. | ||
Become a precinct committeeman. | ||
You've got to take the Republican Party over from the inside. | ||
Too much time and effort to start a third party here. | ||
And money. | ||
Don't have time to do it. | ||
Got to get on with it today. | ||
want to bring in now Boris Epstein was on the 16 campaign on the 20 campaign also special assistant over the White House and comms Boris I got to ask you you know Chris Hayes we're gonna try to have a cut on this probably not in the morning sure probably do it tomorrow Chris Hayes was just as shocked as we were yesterday about about the response of the coordinators in the National Security Council about this Johnson & Johnson vaccine saying oh yeah that you know Johnson & Johnson called us at 10 o'clock at night There's a buried lead in the article. | ||
They did not wake up. | ||
They did not inform Joe Biden when they heard about this. | ||
They didn't ask the question. | ||
They just told him, hey, we're going to put out an announcement tomorrow. | ||
There was no follow-up. | ||
There was no hands-on. | ||
Johnson dropped this bomb without the Biden administration knowing it and the National Security Council. | ||
and uh... guess ron clinton made a conscious decision not to inform joe biden this gets the whole managerial style actually who's in charge right are the corporations now the one hundred corporate c e o s that the uh... as the carlos slim confidant uh... linda uh... rothschild lean the rothschild it literally a rather By the way, you'll really trigger her if you call her Linda. | ||
Linda Rothschild, the confidant of Carlos Slim. | ||
Those 100 CEOs, including J&J and Big Pharma, now run the White House. | ||
They're saying, hey, you know, you guys check in. | ||
We're going to make a morning announcement. | ||
Then they drop it at 7 a.m. | ||
The fiasco yesterday, Fauci's terrible efforts on TV last night and again this morning. | ||
Boris, where do we stand with this J&J situation? | ||
And what does that show you about, is the Biden administration on top of things? | ||
It's good to be with you, as always, with the MAGA Brain Trust. | ||
And by the way, what you were just saying, this is absolutely all about what you talk in the War Room. | ||
The War Room is where the nucleus of thinking of the conservative movement, the MAGA movement, but also on COVID comes from. | ||
So the Brain Trust, your viewership, your audience, are right there with the signal Not the noise, thanks to you, thanks to Rahim, thanks to the whole team. | ||
That's a little love from the undisclosed location this morning. | ||
Now, in terms of the J&J, Johnson & Johnson disaster, let's go to high level and then let's drill down. | ||
At the high level, this made me think of the hard drive from hell. | ||
Do you know why? | ||
Because in those text messages, there's an exchange between the one and only Hunter Biden, You know, a star in Jimmy Kimmel now, and after he fixed his meth mouth, and after he's done hanging out with hookers and doing all kinds of drugs, there's a text message between him and Joe Biden. | ||
And at about 8 p.m., there's a timestamp. | ||
Joe Biden says, I'm going to bed. | ||
I'll talk to you tomorrow. | ||
8 p.m., okay? | ||
And that was a couple years ago. | ||
God gets to the point that Joe Biden is absolutely not operational. | ||
unidentified
|
Out of order. | |
Do not disturb. | ||
Do not wake up. | ||
I bet you from about 7 o'clock on now, okay? | ||
And hey, 7 p.m. | ||
Eastern is 4 p.m. | ||
Pacific, and guess what? | ||
The whole world is still operating too. | ||
So we have a president who is not in charge during key working hours, okay? | ||
That's number one. | ||
And we know that President Trump was the absolute opposite. | ||
You can get him at 1 a.m., you can get him at 5 a.m., okay? | ||
President Trump is always available to lead. | ||
Joe Biden is not in charge. | ||
Ron Klain is just a technocrat. | ||
He's just an apparatchik, and he's messing things up left and right from the border to this vaccine. | ||
You know, the Biden team is getting their taste of Fauci. | ||
They're getting Fauci-ed up, as even mainstream media is saying now, because he can't keep his story straight, just like he hasn't been able to keep his story straight on math, on distancing, on lockdowns, nothing. | ||
And on this vaccine, more and more is coming out. | ||
There's much more information ahead of time. | ||
It's similar to AstraZeneca. | ||
And let me ask you this key question. | ||
Let's drill down and let's ask the key question. | ||
Will any informed American right now be comfortable taking that vaccine after what the White House did, after the way it was rolled out, after the way it was addressed? | ||
Frankly, I was considering it. | ||
I was looking at that vaccine, and I'm going to go get the Pfizer. | ||
unidentified
|
I'll do it. | |
I'm going to get the Pfizer. | ||
President Trump was out there saying vaccines are important, and he's right. | ||
But this Johnson & Johnson fiasco is debilitating. | ||
Debilitating. | ||
For the credibility of the White House, credibility of the vaccine, and credibility of this whole process. | ||
Let me give you a newsflash, shipmate. | ||
The other one's dicier than J&J. | ||
As dicey as J&J is, check out the other one. | ||
Just make sure, and hey, I'm not an anti-vaxxer. | ||
Just look at the information that's been put out there. | ||
That's a whole different deal, but that's for you to... | ||
And God bless President Trump. | ||
And by the way, I don't agree. | ||
I think President Trump made a major mistake yesterday also jumping in this thing and putting out that statement. | ||
I think that statement, I think you need more Boris Epstein's now around the messaging on this. | ||
unidentified
|
I just don't understand why the statement was put out. | |
Here's the key part of that statement. | ||
The key part of the statement is to look at the way that the Biden team is handling both the policy and the communication. | ||
The policy and the communication, and I appreciate the kind words, and I'm always there for the president, always ready to assist in any way I can. | ||
If you look at that statement, the key there is the Biden team has done nothing, nothing to improve the process of vaccination, to improve the actual impact of vaccination, and they have been a disaster. | ||
On the communication side around it. | ||
It has been one of the ugliest things I've seen. | ||
Guess what? | ||
Because they're handling of the border. | ||
The first, you know, now Joe Biden's going to give us address that, you know, the date is 99 days. | ||
This is likely been the worst 99 days of the beginning of a presidency, both on policy and on pros in the modern history of America. | ||
It is a total disaster. | ||
Ron Klain should be fired. | ||
Just like the woman who was in charge of the border. | ||
Klain should be fired. | ||
Bedingfield should be fired. | ||
Psaki should be fired. | ||
They're embarrassing America in the eyes of the world. | ||
The CCP is laughing. | ||
The mullahs are laughing. | ||
Putin is laughing. | ||
And even Europe is starting to laugh. | ||
And you know that's bad when Europe is laughing at America. | ||
Right, Rahim? | ||
So, Raheem, we've got to bounce. | ||
Give us your social media handles. | ||
Thanks so much. | ||
Add Boris if you're on Twitter. | ||
Boris underscore Epstein. | ||
Boris underscore E-P-S-H-T-E-Y-N on the gram. | ||
Can't wait to be back with you guys on video. | ||
Stay strong. | ||
God bless. | ||
Thank you very much, I appreciate it. | ||
Okay, Natalie Winters, thanks Boris. | ||
Natalie Winters, you've done more about the Wuhan lab, you've done more individual investigative reporting than the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Financial Times of London, Washington Post combined. | ||
Okay, you've seen this handling, your observations on the handling of the J&J fiasco. | ||
Yeah, I think that a lot of the refrain from the mainstream media right now is talking about the politicization of science right now. | ||
And frankly, I think they're kind of missing the mark on that. | ||
I know I always like to talk about the Chinese Communist Party, but if you want to talk about the politicization of American science and our establishment, our talking heads, our media head figures, look to the Chinese Communist Party because that's where the real politicization is happening. | ||
I remember about a week ago, the New York Times put up an article Talking about how the Biden regime was going to start investigating the politicization of science under the Trump administration. | ||
And it's like, do that, but how about next time focus on the Chinese Communist Party's subversion and infiltration of the American medical establishment. | ||
So I think it's really hard to kind of look at the American medical establishment who's responsible for legitimizing and authorizing these vaccines from a clear set of eyes when really they are so compromised. | ||
Do you believe what Boris said about, do you sense the mainstream media is getting a little belly full of Fauci right now? | ||
Oh, for sure. | ||
Yeah, definitely. | ||
You should hear the whispers, you know, the whispers that reporters will say to people privately, you know, on the Morton's Terrace or over at the Alibi or something totally different. | ||
than the united front, pun intended, that they present on television. | ||
They really don't like Fauci. | ||
Chris Hayes, who's not a fan of this show, not a fan of me, not a fan of Trump, smart guy. | ||
You could tell last night he was having a tough time with Fauci, right? | ||
He said, this guy's a spinmeister. | ||
Short commercial break. | ||
Back, we're going to Liberty University next. | ||
unidentified
|

Take action today. | ||
Use your agency. | ||
Real quickly, in the second hour, we're going to get to one of my favorite characters, Jeffrey Sachs, new article up on Only in Natalie Winter's special. | ||
I tell people when she's in your life, good things don't happen, at least as a reporter, right? | ||
I'm a huge fan of the Winters family, her father, the whole gang, he's great, helped us out in the beginning of the show. | ||
Jeffrey Sachs? | ||
Yeah, well, if there's one thing we've learned from this pandemic, it's that the so-called experts aren't necessarily deserving of our trust. | ||
And really, when you follow the money, you look where all the roads lead back to. | ||
Oftentimes, it's to the Chinese Communist Party, and Jeffrey Sachs, who chairs the Fairly prestigious Lancet Journal's COVID-19 Commission. | ||
They're advising the United Nations. | ||
He's been in the mainstream media outlets in the West talking about how the Wuhan lab theory is discredited and debunked. | ||
He has financial ties to the Chinese Communist Party. | ||
He's always contributing to Chinese state-run media, and he's even linked to Hunter Biden, specifically CEFC China Energy, which appears on the hard drive quite a bit. | ||
This guy's a grease spot. | ||
We're going to get into that in the second hour. | ||
Peter Navarro's next. | ||
I want to go now, talk about experts that know what they're talking about. | ||
Dave Brat, the head of the Dean of the Business School down at Liberty University, one of the great institutions in our country and particularly great about spreading the message of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. | ||
I want to go now to Amanda Head live, Real America's Voice, on the scene down there. | ||
A major conference today, Equity in Africa. | ||
Amanda Head, Mike Pompeo spoke last night. | ||
You've got tons of experts, people from Africa, leaders from Africa, private equity all over. | ||
So tell us, what did Pompeo say and what's going on today? | ||
unidentified
|
So I had to chase down Mike Pompeo. | |
He's still got Secret Service details, so they whisked him out of there, so I threw off my heels and ran down the hallway to catch him. | ||
But I wanted to talk to him about religious liberty, because it was something that he touched on in his speech. | ||
And, you know, I live in California. | ||
We've got a lot of people at our network who live in blue states and blue cities, and I think that a lot of us find that pastors are really kind of excusing away the mandates and the restrictions that their blue state or city governors or mayors have imposed. | ||
In California, my pastor made the comparison. | ||
He said, well, you look at religious persecution across the globe, and it's not really, you know, that's not really what we're experiencing. | ||
So I relayed that to Mike Pompeo and asked him about that. | ||
And he said, that's a mistake. | ||
He said, it's a mistake for pastors and clergymen to not recognize what's happening right now, because we have to judge our freedoms on an absolute basis, on the basis of the constitution of our founding fathers and what they believed. | ||
And I thought it was really interesting. | ||
He took a very, very strong point on that and said that he's looking to the church and church communities to bring us out of this current era that we are in, which is suppressing freedoms because of COVID. | ||
Amanda, you're at one of the institutions at Liberty, you know, founded by Reverend Falwell, and you've got guys like Dave Brett there now, etc. | ||
Do you get a sense, institutionally, as you talk to the young people there and the faculty, are they girding for this fight? | ||
Do they understand the stakes here, for people of all religious faiths, of what this kind of, you know, aggressively secular Mindset that's now just not in government, but as importantly in in these woke corporations Are they ready for the fight down there at Liberty do you think? | ||
unidentified
|
I think they are because Liberty University does a really great job of hosting conferences and summits much like this one that's bringing in business leaders from across America and Africa. | |
And it's not just this conference, they have other conferences that they bring in and they expose their students to these things so that they can be prepared to go into the workforce and to be able to go into government and politics. | ||
And to combat these ideas from the left. | ||
And I think they are prepared. | ||
And you know, this is obviously a conservative Christian university, so that probably has a lot to do with it. | ||
But we were remarking yesterday of how polite and kind and hospitable the students here are. | ||
They've been willing to take care of us at every turn, lead us to the places we needed to go. | ||
And I think that that, you know, I think that that's foundational to what this university represents, faith and freedom. | ||
And they are doing a really good job of disseminating that idea among their students. | ||
Amanda, last question. | ||
Africa is a new battleground between the ideology of the Chinese Communist Party and freedom and democracy in the Judeo-Christian West. | ||
Is that fully getting vetted at this conference over the next couple of days? | ||
unidentified
|
I think so. | |
A lot of these business leaders have talked about how they view Africa. | ||
You know, Africa, we think of it as one place. | ||
A representative from Liberia was just talking about this. | ||
But it's 54 very diverse countries and it is a vast landscape and a lot of these business leaders here see it as not only a market for U.S. | ||
goods, but possibly a manufacturing hub. | ||
For those companies that produce products, so I think that this is going to be something that's really advantageous to build these bridges. | ||
Dave Bratt has done an excellent job facilitating those relationships, so I would personally love to see Africa fill in in some of those slots that China formerly took. | ||
I think that if we can redirect our businesses to countries who share our values, I think that that's definitely a good thing because what we are seeing from China with the Uighur Muslims, obviously these mobile Detention units in China for Christians. | ||
It's disgusting and it's ghastly and obviously you have some of that stuff in pockets of Africa, primarily northern Africa with terrorism. | ||
But other parts of Africa, you know, they foster these types of businesses. | ||
So let's build those relationships and cut China out. | ||
Amanda, how do people follow the conference for the rest of the day and how do they follow you? | ||
unidentified
|
Just go to Liberty University's website. | |
You'll find a live stream there. | ||
My website is thehollywoodconservative.us. | ||
I'm on Twitter and everywhere at Amanda Head. | ||
Amanda, thank you very much. | ||
Real America's Voice, Amanda Head, live from Liberty University, Dave Brat, the Dean down there at the Business School, putting on Equity in Africa. | ||
This is also when we get to the Sachs. | ||
Jeffrey Sachs, speaking of Africa, I remember he took over, actually from me, when we turned around the biosphere for the Bass family, we did a joint venture with the Columbia University at the time. | ||
Columbia's Lamont Doherty, which is really the kind of the people that controlled Woods Hole, the first people that done all the studies in El Nino and the math and back of climate change. | ||
Jeffrey Sachs, we pitched the ball over to him, he creates this thing, the Earth Institute, immediately politicizes everything. | ||
And spreading his path of destruction, because he'd already destroyed Russia, right? | ||
Russia had an opportunity to actually become a capitalist, really free market, free people, and Jeffrey Sachs went over there with just the worst advice for a number of years with Boris Yeltsin and completely destroyed the Russia and allowed the rise of the oligarchs with his bizarre policies and policy recommendations. | ||
Then at the Earth Institute he spread his path of destruction Throughout the world, so we're going to get into that with Natalie Winters in the next hour. |
