Well 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.
That's the debate in this country.
That's not the debate in China.
Why?
Because the Chinese government has bigger plans.
War Room, Pandemic.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
tucker carlson
That's the debate in this country.
That's not the debate in China.
Why?
Because the Chinese government has bigger plans.
By the time this pandemic has played out, China plans to rule the world.
So for the West, the coronavirus has been a bewildering disaster that we'll be recovering from for a long time.
But for the Chinese government, which thinks long-term, the whole thing has been a blessing.
In fact, they believe it's the beginning of a new Chinese century.
Shari Markson is the national political editor at the Daily Telegraph.
In Australia, she joins us live from Sydney Night.
It's her report, by the way, that has formed the basis of the script you just heard.
steve bannon
Actually, Sherry Markson has now shifted to Sky News and over to The Australian.
That is from one year ago.
That's from 7 May of 2020.
She had been on our show back, I think, in March and in April.
Made Tucker in May with her breaking report that was the basis for so much consternation.
Among those that knowledgeable in the West coming from the intelligence agencies she joins us live from Australia Today with her about her new book.
The new book is called what really happened in Wuhan the cover-up the conspiracies and the classified research Dr. Peter Navarro is also going to be with us.
I want to tell you later in the show, we're going to be in Georgia about Stacey Abrams.
We're going to be in Michigan about the court hearing today about the forensic audit with Matt DiPerno.
We're going to talk about Arizona.
We've got the great Dr. Peter Navarro to help us with that.
But first and foremost, remember, until we get to the bottom of two situations, what happened in the Wuhan lab and what happened on 3 November, we cannot make progress as a country or as the world, quite frankly.
And right now, day by day, the reality is coming out about Wuhan.
You're in the War Room.
Live, John Fredericks, Real America's Voice, and also G-News, GTV, and Mandarin.
I think now in Japanese, too, also.
Okay, I want to thank all of our audience.
I want to go right to Sherry Markson.
Sherry, a year ago, you came out with just amazing reporting.
People's heads were blown up.
That was the start of really your journey.
You have a book now called What Really Happened in Wuhan.
It comes out in September.
A global release, which is quite unusual in today's publishing business, from HarperCollins, a major American publisher, global publisher really, a global release in September.
Our audience that thinks so highly of you could order the book today on Amazon.
I want to ask you, starting from May a year ago when you were on Tucker and started to do this reporting on the intelligence services, your journey to today where you had the big piece in The Weekend Australian saying that we're getting much closer to really finding out that everything that the scientific community and the mainstream left-wing media has been spinning about Wuhan is absolutely incorrect.
So can you walk us through this?
unidentified
It has been an incredible year, and you know, you've been reporting on this the entire time, Steve Bannon, so you've been there every step of the way.
You know, a year ago, or 13 months ago, when I started investigating this topic, looking first at China's cover-up, and then examining what happened, whether the virus was an accidental release from a laboratory itself, this was just treated as a conspiracy theory a year ago.
I was slammed by All parts of the left-wing media in Australia and in the US as well.
It has taken such a long time, you know, and it really wasn't until Trump left office for people to even begin to comprehend that this might not have a natural origin.
It's absurd that this was treated as a conspiracy theory, seeing as there have been so many laboratory accidents in the past, including the 2004 outbreak of SARS in Beijing, Which ended up claiming one life and nine others were infected.
That came from the Beijing Institute of Virology.
But yet this was from so early on dubbed a conspiracy theory.
It was China's narrative and everyone played into it.
The scientists, the credible world-leading virologists who disagreed with that theory that it was definitely of natural origin, were too intimidated To speak out.
They felt too much pressure, political pressure, to speak out.
There was only a few who were brave enough to do so.
One of them was Nikolai Petrovsky here in Australia at Flinders University.
You know, it wasn't until Trump left office this year that you started to see the mainstream media take a more serious examination to this issue.
The book's going to be, in my own words, I think it's going to be amazing.
It really does piece it all together.
The cover-up The unusual aspects of the virus itself, you know, why scientists are so suspicious of the virus, what was going on in Wuhan at the time, all the suspicious activity.
And then I do have some incredible new documents that I don't know how I'm going to wait until September to share with everyone.
steve bannon
Sherry, I want to go back and our guest is Sherry Markson.
She joins us live from Australia quite early morning for her.
Her book is What Really Happened in Wuhan?
The Cover-Up, the Conspiracies, and the Classified Research.
It's up on Amazon right now for our entire audience.
If you want to pre-order this book, I would strongly recommend it.
It'll be out in September.
I want to go to kind of what the basis was and what I think was the most controversial part of some of your initial reporting.
Because you were talking about Five Eyes, the intelligence services that kind of share information.
Canada, the United Kingdom, the United States, Australia and New Zealand.
Here's what I found most shocking.
You were talking about contacts you had, relationships you had, things that people were talking about from the intelligence services that knew about the bioweapons program In China of the PLA and yet you were still eviscerated.
Let's go back.
I want to talk about that.
Why why wasn't that more and I understand people hated Trump and even some of the governments did but why was there not more of an effort leaving the media side?
Why was that more of an effort by some of these governments that clearly when you looked at the classified research knew better?
To get this out there, because that changes the whole arc of everything.
It changes the vaccines, it changes the therapeutics.
It's fundamental, whether it came from the bat woman found in a cave on the Laotian border, right?
A thousand miles from the fresh market, or whether it was man-enhanced and somehow either leaked or was let go, you determine it.
But a man-enhanced artificial, you know, from gain of function is just fundamentally two different things.
You weren't reporting on gossip, you were reporting on things you had heard from the intelligence community.
Why did the intelligence communities in these governments not come forward and be more forceful in the presentation in March, April and May of 2020, ma'am?
unidentified
Yeah, well, I think my first big story was in late April last year, and that reported that the Five Eyes Intelligence Network were examining Two scientists at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, Shi Zhengli, who now everyone knows, of course, who she is, known as the Bat Lady, and one of her other senior scientists, whose name was Peng Zhu.
We put that on the front page.
I was at our sister paper, The Daily Telegraph, at the time.
We slashed that on the front page and said Batman, and did a whole story about how these scientists and the Wuhan Institute of Virology have come under the focus of the Five Eyes Intelligence Agency as a suspected laboratory leak suspected. And then of course, that was followed by the Western government dossier that was concerned about China's cover-up. The point is, inside the intelligence agencies,
you know, they suspected a leak as early as last year. And there was that rare statement from the Office of Director of National Intelligence over in, you know, in the United States, the acting director, John Ratcliffe. That was a...
steve bannon
I tell you, Sherry...
Sherry, we're going to have to, we're going to try to reboot you or try to get it on.
Let me bring in Dr. Peter Navarro while we figure out Sherry.
We're having a very tough time hearing you right now.
Let me bring in Peter Navarro.
Dr. Navarro, we're going to get to, there's a bunch of stories breaking on you, but I want to Okay, fine.
We don't have Dr. Peter Navarro.
Let's see if we can't get Sherry back up.
There's a number of stories breaking today.
There's a number of stories breaking today about a Dr. Navarro being on this show, about the Wuhan lab, about Dr. Fauci.
Mediaite has picked up our Broadcast from the other day saying that Peter Navarro is crazy, right?
Insane for these accusations he's making about Dr. Navarro.
We're going to address those in quite a bit of detail to basically not just refute them, but make sure they understand where their mistakes are.
Also, David Knowles of Yahoo.
David Knowles of Yahoo.
Very respected reporter.
Do we have Sherry back?
Has a major piece up on Yahoo News about this the Republican Party now starting to focus on all of Fauci's misrepresentations Let's bring Sherry back in see if so Sherry Can you just give it again with the about the intelligence community and about the dossier?
unidentified
So April 30 last year the intelligence community in the u.s.
Released a rare statement very rare statement confirming that they were looking for at a laboratory leak as a potential line of inquiry.
They said they were examining this possibility.
And that is so rare for an intelligence agency to do that.
They did that April 30 last year.
And yet this was still treated as a conspiracy theory after that.
Within the Five Eyes Network, there has been a fair level of disagreement about the emphasis or the weight of probabilities on whether it was of natural origin or whether it was a lab escape.
The U.S.
has been more forward leaning The British and the Australian intelligence networks put the weight of probability they did on the natural origin side.
And the truth of the matter is that at this point in time, 15 months on, it's treated as a cold case.
There are very, very few intelligence agents still examining this.
And the reality is they just can't.
Their view is they can't get the access.
You know, they need the virus database in China.
They need Whistleblowers, they need defectors.
So in terms of the Five Eyes community, it's treated as a cold case, and there's a lot of intelligence that the U.S.
is keeping, you know, just for U.S.
eyes only.
steve bannon
Hold it.
Are you saying right now you think the intelligence communities are just thwarted because the Chinese have said you have no access, the WHO is not going to really get access?
You're telling me the intelligence communities are at a dead end on this?
unidentified
Not the US.
I'm saying in the Five Eyes Network, yes, there are very, very few agents still looking at this.
That has been something that I've managed to confirm during my book.
It's been treated as a cold case until they get access to the Chinese laboratories, until they get access to that missing database.
Their view is that there's not much more they can do.
And as I said, there are some aspects of this intelligence that the US has not shared with the Five Eyes Network.
But in terms of The intelligence piece, it is inconclusive.
There are different views as to whether it's of natural origin or a lab leak.
However, you take a step back, which is what I've done in the book, and you interview the world's leading virologists.
You look at the scientific evidence.
There's so much out there when you piece it all together.
Scientists who were too scared to speak a year ago are now coming out.
Literally, the most credible virologists in the world People are coming out saying, of course this is possible.
I mean, how could this have ever been treated as a conspiracy theory?
And they're analysing it.
It's probably a bit too complicated.
You need, as I joke in my book, you need Margot Robbie in a bath to explain all the scientific terms.
But, you know, there are some highly, highly unusual features about SARS-CoV-2, the virus that makes COVID-19, that make these virologists question Whether it was a result of gain-of-function experiments rather than natural transmission from animals to humans.

The Cover-Up, The Conspiracies, And the classified research, it will be a blockbuster because Sherry Markson has been on this as a reporter, the very first reporter that's been on this and caused international, really, people to wake up internationally that this was real.
We're going to take a short commercial break.
Sherry, we'll be right back.
We ask you to hold over.

War room pandemic with Stephen K Bannon.
The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide.
War room pandemic.
Here's your host Stephen K Bannon.
steve bannon
you The great Tucker Carlson had Sherry Markson on about a year ago on May 7th to start walking through this explosive story.
She's now got a book that's coming out in September.
Go to Amazon.
You got to kind of click through to make sure you get not just the Kindle, but they also got the hardback copy you can pre-order.
What really happened in Wuhan?
If you want to find out what really happened in Wuhan, You couldn't do better than Sherry Markson, the great investigative reporter from Down Under.
She joins us today from Australia.
One of the burning questions here, Sherry, and there's a number of stories up.
We're going to get to Dr. Peter Navarro in a minute.
You got Yahoo, the great David Knowles has got a big story just popped.
You've got the Mediate guys are really going after Dr. Navarro for his hit here on Worm, I think, on Friday evening.
The question is about Dr. Fauci and Peter Daszak.
Here's the question.
In the year and a half or 13 months you've been doing your reporting so far, and you'll continue on until the book's published, have you ever heard or seen Dr. Fauci actually come forward and try to present He has never done this.
unidentified
Never done this.
And it's a scandal that he wasn't asked about it in the hundreds of press conferences he gave last year or has given this year.
Why aren't people asking this question of him?
The fact is that the Obama administration banned Dangerous gain-of-function research.
And this is research where you combine, create, put viruses together to create even more lethal viruses.
You increase their infectiousness, their ability to be transmissible to humans.
This is very dangerous research because it's creating brand new viruses that did not exist in nature before.
The Obama administration banned this type of research for 22 fields in 2014.
Fauci Without telling any in the senior leadership, and Pete Navarro will be able to confirm that in a moment, without anyone in the senior leadership at the Trump administration knowing about this, he did have one meeting, I've managed to find out in the White House, but it was a relatively junior meeting, a low-level meeting.
Without telling anyone, he lifted this gain-of-function ban on the gain-of-function research in 2017.
Money was flowing through To a variety of projects, including to EcoHealth Alliance, where it was then funneled through to the Wuhan Institute of Virology.
Some of the most dangerous experiments that were happening in a Wuhan lab, apologies for that message, that were happening in a Wuhan lab with inadequate safety controls, where serious safety lapses had happened before, were being funded by American taxpayers.
This is an absolute scandal.
Needs to be questioned on it.
I saw the other day, and you probably saw this, Steve, that a journalist at the White House press briefing, I played this on my show on Sunday night, she tried to ask Jen Paschke why Fauci had lifted this ban on the gain of function research.
And Paschke said, Oh, you can put questions to NIH.
I'm sorry, but this question Should go to the President.
The President should be asking Fauci why he made the decision, apparently all on his own, because I've managed to confirm through my reporting that no one senior in the White House knew about it.
It was just a junior meeting where he got permission to do this.
You know, why did he do this?
And what have the consequences been?
You know, this is the point.
There's a lot of information on this that's available in the US, in Australia, People who are working and collaborating with the Wuhan Institute of Virology, they have a lot of information.
We talk about China not giving access.
Well, where's the transparency here?
Where is the inquiry here to find out at least what the US knows about what was going on?
That needs to happen.
It is so crucial.
steve bannon
Look, you're a professional journalist with some of the most revered institutions in global journalism.
You've got a massive book coming out from one of the best publishing houses, Imprints, with a global release, which is very unusual today.
Normally, different publishers take rights for countries.
You're a global release.
Obviously, people revere you as an investigative reporter and your research.
Here's what I think for our audience is kind of the disconnect, is how can the mainstream media, which you're part of, how could they have held up Dasik and Fauci in this most crucial year of this plague when they're at the center of this entire thing and they've been held up and not asked a tough question on 60 Minutes here.
It was disgraceful.
Leslie Stahl was like, it was like a fangirl.
It was a disgrace and no hard questions.
It was like doing a junior high term paper.
How can the mainstream media not just get to the bottom of the story but hold up two individuals who are central To the problem that we've got to get to of a man-enhanced virus and a potential lab leak, which would send you down an entire different set of investigations for vaccines, for therapeutics, for how it's spread, for all that.
So tell us how that happened.
unidentified
You know, just on that 60 Minutes, I was worried when I heard US 60 Minutes was doing a big investigation into the origins of COVID-19.
I was worried.
I thought, I hope they don't get any of this amazing material that I've got in my book that I'm holding until the book's release in September.
I have never been so underwhelmed by a piece of journalism.
It was like the origins of COVID-19 for Dummies.
It was terrible.
You know, she had access to Peter Daszak.
She could have asked him all of the tough questions.
I mean, have you seen?
When he went into Wuhan to investigate For the World Health Organization, the origins of the virus.
And by the way, Steve, what a conflict of interest.
How do you have someone who's been working with the Wuhan Institute of Virology for at least 15 years, not just working with them, but funding their experiments?
How do you have that person being sent in to investigate the origins of the virus on behalf of the World Health Organization?
That is the most obvious conflict of interest.
That anyone could have ever come across it.
And yet that was the case.
He was one of the investigators.
And when he was in the lab, he asked about the virus database, why it had been gone missing, taken offline in September 2019.
And the Chinese scientists, by the way, who had foreign ministry minders watching them speak, the Chinese scientists said that they'd been subject to hacking attempts.
And He just believed it.
He didn't ask any further questions.
I mean, it is an absolute outrage that the only inquiry we've had, the World Health Organization, has been riddled with these sort of conflicts of interest.
There absolutely needs to be questions asked in the US about what people know.
Fauci needs to give evidence.
The mainstream media, you know, were terribly incurious.
And that's a polite way of saying it.
They were incurious last year about the origins of the pandemic.
I've already said to you that that is because the President at the time, Trump and Mike Pompeo, Secretary of State, both said publicly that they thought the virus, that there was enormous evidence that the virus had come from a lab.
I mean, if you look at the other side of it, imagine if they hadn't told Americans and the world that the virus had potentially come from a lab.
That would have been a monumental cover-up.
They had to disclose this information, but then they were pilloried for doing so.
And it was a reason for the rest of the media to think, oh, if they've said it, you know, the guy who has access to intelligence, oh, if he said it, then it must be wrong.
And then they pursued the other side of the argument.
It's just been such a great failure of the media, of scientists, of our institutions, of our global health authorities.
And, you know, when I saw that press conference in February this year, it was clear that the WHO investigation was going to be a whitewash.
And that's when I said, I've got to write this book.
I've got to put everything that I've been reporting on for a year into a book so people can actually understand what's happened here.
steve bannon
Sherry, people don't understand the pressure you've been under and particularly for doing this investigation out of Australia.
Can you explain to our American audience the Chinese, how smash mouth the Chinese Communist Party is playing with like the Australian government and the Australian people?
When you try to do something to assert your independence or assert that you're not going to let them intimidate you and influence you, how does the Chinese Communist Party react?
unidentified
So our Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison famously said there should be an inquiry into the origins of COVID-19 last year, back in, I think it was April, April 14 last year, he said that.
Since then, Australia has been subject to extreme tariffs.
I mean, the tariffs on our wine exports are something like 300%.
Wine exports, beef, barley, and the list goes on.
It's been intense.
Not only that, but they've arrested an Australian Chinese journalist in Beijing, in China.
She's in detention.
We haven't seen her or heard from her.
Australian journalists had to flee in the middle of the night.
China, lest they be arrested as well.
There are no remaining Australian journalists in China.
It is just not safe.
This has been quite a heavy blowback.
For our Australian government just calling for something so standard that there should be an inquiry into how a global pandemic that's now cost over 3 million lives, that's destroyed economies, that's shut down life as we know it.
Oh, we should have an inquiry into how it started.
And yet the retaliation has been intense.
And as you've spoken about on this show, as Pete Navarro has spoken about on this show, you know, China has attempted to take strategic advantage It's stepping up its threats against Taiwan.
That's not even to talk about.
It's using aid diplomacy.
First it was masks, now it was vaccine diplomacy.
There's questions over how effective the vaccines are.
So this has really been quite abysmal behaviour.
Even if the whole virus was naturally occurring, but it doesn't look like it was, they have Weaponize the release of the pandemic to use it to their strategic advantage against the West.
steve bannon
Sherry, real quickly, the book is What Really Happened in Wuhan.
We're going to get the cover up back.
How do people get social media?
What's your social media they can follow you?
unidentified
Well, are your followers on, are your viewers on Twitter anymore?
If they are, I'm on Sherry Markson.
Sherry Markson on Twitter.
Otherwise, that's, you know, that's it for social media.
The tech giants have shut down.
conservatives from social media.
So it's a bit tricky.
I mean, what about this Facebook ban of Trump?
Trump has been silenced for another six months.
If you're a conservative, you don't get a platform.
steve bannon
I'm not conservative.
Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for joining us.

He's going to be out there with Eric McTaxis and Joe Piscopo and others.
I think it's an overflow crowd.
We're going to try to get Mike on tomorrow to talk to us about it.

Sherry Markson.
So I want everybody in the War Room posse not to order the book, but please go to Amazon and tell us what's happening.
We're getting conflicting reports from all over.
Some people saying the book can't be ordered.
Some people say going to be ordered in Spanish.
Far be it for me to say that Jeff Bezos and the folks at Amazon would ever, ever kowtow to the Chinese Communist Party ever whatsoever.
Right.
Far be it for me on a book about Wuhan.
Right.
That didn't fall into the narrative.
But we won't go into the buried leads that Sherry Markson had in her interview.
But if you've been following this story, there are about a half a dozen and a couple that were like page one.
So we'll get to those at another time.
But she had some pretty explosive stuff.
We've been following the story closely.
I want to bring in Dr. Peter Navarro.
Doctor, and a couple things I want to go through.
We've got some stuff on, because you also are one of the statisticians in back of Stop the Steal, right?
In the big lie narrative of the mainstream media of turn it apart.
I want to get to that in Arizona and also up now in Michigan.
Matt DiPerno, who was on the show earlier today, had an explosive hearing in Michigan today.
I think Jack Posovic, if you follow his Twitter feed, Jack Posovic, One American News, is doing play-by-play.
Pretty explosive.
And what DiPerno is going for is a full forensic hand audit in Michigan with canvassing.
And to get to the machines, all of it, just like Arizona.
And that's what we're focused on.
And Matt DiPerno is the tip of the spear there.
But I've got to go back, Dr. Navarro, about you and Wuhan Lab and Dr. Fauci.
Two stories hit almost simultaneously, right?
Remember, no conspiracy but no coincidence.
David Knowles, one of the top reporters at Yahoo News, one of the biggest news sites in the world, has written a very detailed Detailed analysis of how the Republican Party is really turning on Fauci.
You know, with Jim Jordan's inquiries of him, other people questioning him, and of course, Dr. Peter Navarro in here at the War Room, Stephen K. Bannon and the rest of the team.
But media I took, I think it was your interview here on the show on Friday, where you said, hey, he's responsible for potentially millions of deaths here.
And they kind of misinterpreted It wasn't just the aspects of what Sherry Markson said about his support of the gain-of-function experiments.
And remember, our point is, why has Dr. Fauci, in a year and a half, why has Dr. Fauci never come forward at all at any time?
And try to put forward why he was involved, what was the purpose, why did he reinitiate this after Obama's National Security Council, the National Security Council of President Obama, from the West Wing of the White House, shut down gain-of-function experimentation, which is essentially a fancy term for weaponization of viruses, okay?
Why?
They shut it down because it was too dangerous, and they particularly shut down funding so you couldn't do it in foreign countries.
Fauci has never come forward, and here's the thing of the media, and this is the guy with the Media Act that wrote this.
You're going to own all these stories, because the truth is coming out day by day.
You're going to own every cheerleader and every 60 Minutes, all you guys that protected Fauci for a year and a half and let this plague spread throughout the world.
You're all going to be held accountable.
Okay, so Dr. Navarro, I want to go back to the media piece.
The thing they missed the most is your point about you and Fauci headed out on January 27th about stopping traffic coming in from China.
That's where his principal responsibility is, at least initially, until we found out about the gain-of-function things.
That's his first failure, was he fought you tooth and nail and then lied about it later.
Is that not correct, sir?
peter navarro
That is correct.
I mean, I have the credibility over Fauci going back to January 28th.
As you've said, on January 23rd, he was telling John Kasimitidis, don't worry, be happy.
I had to fight him tooth and nail in the Situation Room to get support for the President's pulling down on the China flights, which saved millions.
Steve, what I'm about to do is probably going to be the most important three minutes I've ever done on this show.
I want to throw down now.
I want to throw out to Mediate.
I want to throw out to the Washington Post and dare them to put what I'm about to say up to their Pinocchio test.
I want to throw out to Neil Cavuto because he had Fauci on basically trash-talking me, and I'd like a chance on Neil Cavuto to respond.
So here's what I'm going to do.
I'm going to put on a chart for your radio audience, and I'm going to just lay out the argument for mediaite.
Mediaite, I want you to look at this really carefully, and you tell me where this goes wrong.
So we start with the first fact.
This is incontrovertible.
Tony Fauci funded the Wuhan lab through the NIH.
Fact.
Fact number two.
unidentified
U.S.
peter navarro
taxpayer funds to Wuhan from Fauci We're laundered through this shadowy character named Peter Daszak.
Fact number three.
Fauci reinstituted gain-of-function research capability at Wuhan.
And Steve, he did that basically behind the back of the Trump administration, overriding a decision by the Obama administration because gain-of-function is too dangerous.
Go back to the chart now.
Fact number four, gain-of-function tools can be used to weaponize viruses.
The whole idea, think of it, gain-of-function.
What's the function?
To kill people.
Fact number five, Dasik bragged about using gain-of-function to alter virus Viruses in Wuhan said it was easy.
This was just before the pandemic.
Fact number six.
There's no proof whatsoever that the virus jumped from animal to humans.
This is over a year after they've started looking.
This is very unlike SARS-1 where they found the connection almost immediately.
Fact number seven.
Growing number of people think that the virus actually came from the Wuhan lab, which you and I were saying back in February and January of 2020, including Dr. Redfield of the CDC, Sanjay Gupta of CNN.
This beautiful article by Nick Wade, a former New York Times reporter, So here's the argument, mediaite.
Here's the argument, Washington Post.
Here's the argument, Neil Cavuto.
If all of those facts that I just laid out are correct, And if the virus came from the Wuhan lab, which is sitting here right behind me, then Anthony Fauci is the father of this virus, and he bears an enormous amount of responsibility for the global pandemic, along with the Chinese Communist Party, that has hit the world.
There is blood on Tony Fauci's hands.
There it is, mediaite.
Go back.
You tell me.
You go look at it and you tell me what I said that was not fact and what's wrong with my Cartesian logic here.
steve bannon
As we have argued from the beginning, it's just like the November 3rd needs an official venue to adjudicate.
That's why we said it should be done.
Either by the Senate, right, on the 6th, or it ought to be done, it ought to be done in the impeachment trial.
You need an official, or in courts, or by state senates, you need an official venue to adjudicate this.
You need an official, look, Sherry Markson's doing amazing investigative reporting.
Nick Wade, at the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists, which is not a right-wing publication, trust me, okay, does, the former New York Times science editor, does an amazing job.
We'll put that back up.
But you're going to need an investigation.
You need to investigate Wuhan with the top scientists in the world.
But we need to do an investigation here at home.
We need to find out exactly some basic information.
And reporters have to start.
And I think Sherry did miss one thing.
The reporter from Newsmax, Emerald Robertson, I think it was, asked Jen Psaki the question.
It was obvious to me Jen Psaki had no idea what she was talking about.
That's the bubble that's been around here by the media.
I don't think Jen Psaki was trying to spin it.
It wasn't, I'll circle back with you, it was like, hey, that's a Grundon question, go ask the Grundons over at NIH, don't bother me here at the White House.
But we understand...
peter navarro
Let me disagree with that because again, Sherry is doing beautiful work, but the one thing is she doesn't have the sense of the U.S.
political environment.
I mean, the reality here is that there was only one game the Democrats were playing during the election, and that was to blame Donald J. Trump for the pandemic.
And based on that alone, that line of attack, that vector of attack, there could be no way that you could blame anybody but Trump for it.
And whether it was the Chinese Communist Party or Anthony Fauci or anybody in between.
So they're very reluctant to let go of that narrative right now because if they let go of that narrative, people will go, oh yeah, we see what you were doing.
You were blaming Trump Yeah.
for something that the Chinese Communist Party and Tony Fauci were actually responsible for, even though, let's not forget, the passive-aggressive Fauci did tremendous damage to this president with all of his contradictory remarks and everything he did behind the scenes, including to slow down the vaccine coming before Election Day.
So Fauci's going down.
steve bannon
Yeah.
That's an argument for another day, but I want to stay on this again and function.
Are you saying you would offer up, I think Mediat has a podcast now, you would offer up to the reporter that did the story about your hit here on Friday, you would offer up to be interviewed by him, be interviewed by David Knowles over at Yahoo, Neil Cavuto on Fox News?
You would go before anybody and say, hey, ask me any question.
I will bring the receipts like I did on the election.
You're open to basically say, hey, to ask me any question, I'll come with.
And here's where you guys are going to get jammed up.
Navarro's got the memos from the White House and Fauci doesn't have any backup material.
Fauci does not have the counter-argument, oh, here's what I said at the time.
That does not exist.
That's why Fauci is going to be left hung out to dry here.
The facts, evidence-based, data-based, science-based, not an aside.
peter navarro
I want to go back to this chart here, okay?
If these seven facts are correct, then the only thing we have to do to convict Anthony Fauci, basically, Is to prove that the virus itself came from that lab, right?
These seven facts are not in dispute.
See, that's the problem with the mediate analysis and all that.
Basically, we've got a situation where we know Fauci funded that lab.
That's outrageous in and of itself.
He ought to be fired just for that, giving taxpayer money.
We know he went behind the back of the Trump administration, the Trump White House, early in the administration when we were looking at everything but that, and got his way, and he got his Peter Daszak guy going and playing around with really deadly viruses.
We know he did that.
DASIC bragged about it, and look, there's no proof that the virus jumped from animals to humans on this SARS-2.
It's got, I mean, that Nicholas Wade article, when he talked about the way it's constructed.
And then, of course, Dr. Yan.
I mean, she is like the master of describing how this is a weaponized virus.
unidentified
It's all there.
peter navarro
These people just don't want to look.
Come on, media.
Come on, Reuters.
Come on, Fox, Carudo, whoever you want.
I'll answer any one of your questions.
steve bannon
Okay, we've got to bounce.
We can't get to the, we'll get tomorrow morning to the November 3rd of it all in Arizona.
Okay, real quickly, how do people get to your reports, particularly report on the election fraud, everything else you've got, how do they get there, Peter?
peter navarro
Peter Navarro.com and you can go and see all the mischief in Michigan, which is bubbling hot right now, along with Arizona and Georgia.
So it's all there at PeterNavarro.com.
Real P. Navarro on Twitter if you want to see some of the Fauci escapades.
steve bannon
Michigan's heating up.
Make sure you go there.
Peter Navarro, thank you very much.
We're going to take a short commercial break.
Thank you, sir.
Stacey Abrams says she's thinking about running for president.
What she's going to do first is make sure that she wins more elections down in Georgia.
She's got a way to do that.
Stop the Republicans from suppressing the vote.
Black entrepreneurs disagree.
Next in the War Room.
unidentified
War Room.
Pandemic.
With Stephen K. Bannon.
The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide.
War Room.
Pandemic.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
People take voting for granted.
When you've never had to think about the hardship of voting, then yes, these conversations about voter suppression seem absurd to you.
When you've never spent more than seven minutes in line, it is nearly impossible to imagine that there are poor black people who stand in line for eight hours, miss an entire day's wages, risk losing their jobs, simply to cast a ballot in an election that may or may not have any benefit in their lives.
Hello Georgia!
Ensuring that right to vote may someday help Abrams achieve her greatest dream, running for president.
Do I hold it as an ambition?
Absolutely.
And even more importantly, when someone asks me if that's my ambition, I have a responsibility to say yes for every young woman, every person of color, every young person of color who sees me and decides what they're capable of based on what I think I'm capable of.
steve bannon
I don't think there's any one individual outside, obviously, the President Trump and Joe Biden.
I don't think there's any one individual had a bigger impact in the 2020 election.
And she's right there saying, hey, I'm going to be a force going forward.
And guess what?
You know, I may run for governor of Georgia.
I may do other things, but I'm focused on running for president of the United States.
And people, I realize, you know, I'll get blown up for this, but hey, I admire her toughness.
I admire her focus.
I want people on our side of the football that tough and that focused.
Remember, she browbeat the Georgia administration of Republicans into signing a secret consent decree that had all these changes in it.
It basically led to a reversal of what I think is the legitimate chain of custody vote In Georgia to have these lack of chain of custody votes that that they counted.
So this is central to going forward and she is she's thrown down hard now on these new laws, which I don't think go anywhere near enough.
Of what needs to be done, particularly in mail-in ballots and the chain of custody of mail-in ballots.
The chain of custody of mail-in ballots.
And so, there's going to be a press conference tomorrow.
Do we have the individual on here?
Marvel.
Can we bring in Marvel?
There's a press conference tomorrow in Atlanta, Georgia of black entrepreneurs led by Raynard Jackson.
The close friend of this show from the Black Americans for a Better Future.
There's going to be a live press conference.
We're going to pick it up tomorrow at 10 o'clock.
It's going to be about pushing back on Stacey Abrams.
Marvel, can you tell us exactly what's the point?
Why are you guys having a press conference and why are you challenging Stacey Abrams down in Georgia?
unidentified
The reason why we're having the press conference, for me personally, I can't speak for myself personally, is because I'm challenging Stacey Abrams or whoever is in the Leadership position and to tell them, listen, we here in Cobb County is being suffered by the move in the game because I can speak for myself because my employees, my family, we all lose business.
We all lose quality time.
We all lose family time.
We all lose time with our patrons.
To grow our business by you choose to make a fact to take it away.
It's a bad decision because it's.
Whatever decision make is I'm here to grow my business to help my society grow into my environment and the fact that I choose to come here to Cobb County and I came here United State as well as an opportunity to not to be grow not opportunity to be taken away.
But an opportunity to grow and succeed, make better for myself and my society and my family as well.
And it shouldn't be a political move, but just a gracious move as far as, you know, it's affecting everyone.
steve bannon
So you're particularly upset because what Stacy did in this in this since the bill was passed was get Major League Baseball to take the All-Star Game away.
You've had other major corporations down there.
You guys are particularly incensed as small businessmen and women about the Major League about the All-Star Game shifting.
Is that correct?
unidentified
Yes, that's correct.
I mean, it's I was looking forward for the All-Star Game because tell you what?
I ramped up a lot of food.
I ramped up a lot of employees.
I ramped up a lot of revenue.
Tried to have this good day go and this entire week.
And pretty much, I can tell you this much, I'll lose at least $50,000 just by me, just by moving the game along.
And it doesn't affect me.
You know, I can always find food on my table, but I have employees here who doesn't know how the next food is going to get on the table.
They don't know how they're gonna provide for the family.
They were waiting for this day to make some extra money, get some extra hours in, to get some extra time to, you know, just to make money and to provide for the family.
And it's just not me.
I got neighbors here as well who also impact for me.
steve bannon
Marvel, this is Marvel Rodney from Marvel Rodney's Jamaican Soul Food.
We only got about a minute and a half left.
What do you hope to accomplish at the press conference besides awareness?
Is there some action?
Do you want Major League Baseball to reverse its decision and bring the game back to Atlanta?
unidentified
Absolutely, without a shadow of a doubt.
I want them to reverse this decision, bring the game back to Atlanta.
They're not just only bringing the game back to Atlanta.
They're bringing back uniting families.
They're bringing back revenue.
They're bringing back our love.
They're bringing back joy to our community.
They're bringing back the sense of togetherness.
They're bringing back all the stuff you use for a game.
So like I was saying before, the only reason why I moved close to the baseball game, the stadium, is only to capitalize on the business, capitalize on the games.
But if you're going to take it away, it makes no sense.
It's only Taking away from not just me, like I said, from the community, which is most important.
steve bannon
Marvel Rodney is an entrepreneur.
He is the head of, he owns, Rodney's Jamaican Soul Food.
He's going to be there live tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock.
We're going to do live coverage on our show.
This is to really confront Stacey Abrams and say, hey, what happened and what you allowed to happen with Major League Baseball is not right.
It's hurting entrepreneurs across the board, but particularly black entrepreneurs around the stadium.
Marvel Rodney, thank you so much for joining us.
Look forward to talking to you tomorrow, hearing the press conference and interviewing you afterwards, sir.
Thank you so much.
unidentified
