Well the virus has now killed more than a hundred people in China and new cases have been confirmed around the world.
So you don't want to frighten the American public.
France and South Korea have also got evacuation plans.
But you need to prepare for and assume.
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.
anthony fauci
Because if you don't, then the worst happens.

War Room.
Pandemic.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
steve bannon
It's Friday the 21st of May, the year of our Lord 2021.
You're in War Room Pandemic Special Edition.
We're sitting in for John Frederick's Early today at 4 o'clock.
War Room will follow at 5.
I want to go to Liberty University right now.
You have Amanda Head, Ben Berquam, Real America's Voice.
They've just wrapped up their live show.
Amanda, I'll start with you.
Walk us through what happened today.
What did you guys go through?
unidentified
We had an incredible crowd come out, a mix of student, alumni, people from the area.
A lovely lady named Linda brought us like five bags of food from Honey Baked Ham to feed everybody on the bus, but we had Congressman Robert Hurt who came.
He represents or he represented one of the districts nearby.
We talked to him a little bit about history and about what he sees happening in 2022.
We talked to Phil Klein, of course, who you've had on your show frequently.
Talking about election fraud and what we can do going forward in all of these swing states to make sure that doesn't happen again.
We had, I mean, it was just a wonderful time and so many people came out to support it.
Of course, Dave Bratt, the Dean of the College of Business behind us, was integral in getting a lot of these folks out and we're looking forward to partnering with Dave Bratt again in the future and trucking on down the road!
steve bannon
Amanda, tell me about the young people.
What was the enthusiasm level among the students and the young people that were able to attend?
unidentified
I'm just gonna say, when I was in college, I did not sound like they did.
They are a lot more responsible and intelligent and articulate than I was when I was an idiot in college.
It is very apparent that this university is doing a great job of raising up citizens who are going to get involved in America, in politics, in political activism.
People who are those force multipliers that you've talked about.
And I'm listening to them do some of these student interviews and I was very impressed.
And I'm excited for the day when I hear someone running for state, local, or even federal office who is a Liberty University alumni because I feel like that is the seal of approval for us.
steve bannon
Ben, there's a big ruling today in Georgia that we're actually not going to have hands on the, or at least the county people, but we're going to start looking at actual ballots, in fact similes of ballots, down in Georgia.
We're going to have one of the, Mr. Favarito, whose lawsuit drove this.
What's your sense now this is exploding across the country?
We had Josh Mandel from Ohio running for the Senate.
Jeff Bartos running for the Senate in Pennsylvania.
Both of those individuals threw down hard today on the show saying they absolutely support audits.
Audits got to be done in Pennsylvania.
They got to be done in Michigan, Wisconsin.
They got to go across the country.
Do you think we're gaining momentum in this movement?
ben bergquam
Oh, there's no question about it.
Seeing what's happened in Arizona, now that move into Georgia, I really think the dominoes are going to start to fall.
The key is that we keep the pedal down.
That's why the Democrats, Nancy Pelosi, I believe if that commission ends up happening, if it's an honest commission, we're going to find out that's exactly why they allowed what happened and possibly even instigated what happened on January 6th was to silence what was supposed to happen that day.
If everyone remembers, we were supposed to actually start getting to the bottom of this.
We were going to have some courageous representatives stand up and say, these numbers just don't make sense.
It's time to do this.
Now we're finally having that happen.
Arizona, Georgia, hopefully Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin.
As this starts to happen, as these people start to get the courage to stand up, And that's why we're starting to see the Democrats lose what they have left of their minds.
And once these numbers start coming out and people start realizing what really happened in this election.
steve bannon
Talking about losing their minds, Ben, Mediaite had up as its lead story this morning, as soon as it happened, the Joe Scarborough meltdown on Morning Joe.
I think they've removed it from their site as soon as we started playing it up on War Room.
What are your thoughts about Scarborough and his meltdown today?
What do you think that shows about where the progressive left in the Democratic Party is?
ben bergquam
Well, it's clear they are afraid.
They are very afraid.
I mean, they know!
Bottom line, you and I, Steve, know.
Jeremy knows.
Dave knows.
Amanda knows.
The viewers of this audience know.
We know what happened in this election on November 3rd.
We know what happened and we know what's happened since then.
I was in Georgia.
I was in Arizona for two weeks after that, after the election.
I saw mountains of evidence.
They know what happened and they know as it starts to come out and the American people that don't know yet, Once they start to find out, they are going to lose it.
And this facade that they have built, this house of cards that they have built, is going to come crumbling down.
That's why they're freaking out.
That's why Joe Scarborough is freaking out.
That's why so many others, AOC and the rest of them, don't want to have happen what's happening in Arizona, and what's going to happen in Georgia, and what I pray happens in Pennsylvania and across the country.
unidentified
Yeah, Steve, you and I were talking about the four stages of grief earlier, and Jeremy and I were discussing, and he said, I think that the fourth stage is acceptance.
You had them denying that it happened.
You had them angry about what we are doing.
The third stage is bargaining.
They said, please don't do this.
You're tearing apart our country.
The fourth stage is acceptance.
I'm pretty sure they're going to skip that and just start back at one with each of these states.
steve bannon
Amanda, I'm so glad we got you out there now in full parental supervision.
Talk to us about where do you guys go from Liberty.
You had a great event in Pennsylvania and Philadelphia, the Cradle of Liberty.
You went to Liberty University, had a great event today.
You're heading down to Tennessee and to Nashville, I think.
So tell us, one, what's the event tomorrow and what time is it going to broadcast?
And then tell the audience, how are you going to keep control of that group that you've been put in charge of?
unidentified
Oh, Steve.
I know you appointed me as chaperone.
I hate that today is progress report day because I failed on all counts.
I don't know who signed the permission slip for these guys, but whoever it was, their wives, whatever, don't ever sign those permission slips ever again because this is too tall of an order for me to try to wrangle them.
Tomorrow in Cookeville, Tennessee at the Cookeville Community Center, in collaboration with Tennessee Freedom Force, our event is on the ground from 4 to 6 p.m.
local time, that's Central Time, and then 5 to 7 p.m.
on Real America's Voice, that's Eastern Time.
We've got a great group of people coming out.
These two guys who are bookending us with their musical talent will be performing tomorrow And we'll be talking to the people on the ground there in Tennessee.
I'm very interested to hear how they feel about those illegal immigrants who were basically smuggled in the dead of the night into Chattanooga and dispersed all over the southeast.
So there are a lot of things to talk to the people of Tennessee about tomorrow.
ben bergquam
And not only tomorrow are you going to get our live coverage, we're going to do our standard special from 4 to 5 Eastern or Central 5 to 6 Eastern, but after that we're going to be doing like a town hall style We're going to be speaking and then these two guys are going to be doing a concert And that's going to be airing live on the network as well real quick.
Do you guys want to say anything?
What's coming?
What people should expect?
unidentified
Well, I'll tell you this.
We decided today, at the end of today's show, let's just do it here.
We didn't have a PA system.
We said, let's just perform here for these folks.
And we did it.
And I gotta say, they weren't expecting it.
I wasn't expecting it.
But we did it, Steve.
And we literally injected some red, white, and blue into Liberty University.
Not that they needed it, but we gave them some more today.
Dave, what do you think about what happened here today?
Yeah, I agree.
I don't think anybody was ready for it.
Again, Jeremy throws me, literally, under the bus.
Hey, guess what we're doing?
Okay, but one more shout out to Liberty University.
You know, taking America's most valuable asset, the youth of America, and instilling the foundational values, patriotism, faith, right, and constitutional values, and the one kid we interviewed today could not have said it better.
He's like, I'm a graduate from here and I'm stepping out into a world with a suit of armor, with all the weapons I need to be successful.
And if every educational institution across America could see the power in that of its alumni to be able, and that kid is going to go on and be successful.
And again, to see her and hear him talk today at Liberty University and all the other speakers we had today, just absolutely amazing.
And again, Save America Freedom Tour, right guys?
ben bergquam
Amen.
Amen.
Steve, it's going to be amazing.
steve bannon
Hang on one second, guys.
I just want to make sure we get it right for tomorrow.
What time is the live broadcast?
What time is the town hall?
And when is the concert?
ben bergquam
We'll just go Eastern time.
Eastern time.
5 to 6.
5 to 6 o'clock will be the regular special that we're going to be doing.
5 to 6 o'clock Eastern time.
6 to 7 o'clock Eastern time will be the town hall where we're speaking, and then halfway through that will be their concert.
So roughly 6.30 to 7 o'clock will be their concert.
Again, Eastern time.
steve bannon
Okay, so 5 to 7 tomorrow on Real America's Voice Live.
You've got a show and a town hall and a concert.
Yep.
unidentified
Yep.
ben bergquam
And real quick, it's Cookville, Tennessee.
So anyone who wants to come join us, it's at the Cookville Community Center tomorrow.
Come join us.
steve bannon
Awesome.
Ben, real quickly... And we got the flag!
unidentified
We got Danny!
We got Danny with the flag!
ben bergquam
I love it.
steve bannon
Amanda, God bless you.
God bless you.
unidentified
Real quickly... I appreciate your prayers.
steve bannon
God bless you.
You're a good woman.
Ben, we're going to go out to Arizona live to the rally out there.
We're going to have Matt Gaetz later, pre-rally.
Real quickly, you've been covering Maricopa County, you've been covering this audit, you see Joe Scarborough in the meltdown.
What do you have to say for the folks out in Arizona who are going to meet today to rally?
ben bergquam
Stay the course.
They are going to continue to attack because they know we're on the side of righteousness.
Do not give up.
Do not compromise.
Fight till the end.
As Washington said, victory or death, this nation is depending on you, Arizona.
God bless you, Mark Fincham, and all the rest of the patriots in Arizona.
steve bannon
Okay guys, and Amanda, we'll see you guys tomorrow at Real America's Voice, 5 to 7.
A live show, got a town hall, and then a concert.
Okay, we're going to take a short commercial break.
We're going to go to Arizona, get Drew Hernandez out there, a live crew.
Also, the armor-piercing shell that is Mike Lindell.
Both join us on the other side of this commercial break in the war room.
unidentified
And we'll be back.
Pandemic.
With Stephen K. Bannon.
The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide.
War Room.
Pandemic.
Okay, welcome back.
steve bannon
We're going to go to Arizona.
We got a lot to get through in the next two hours.
This is a special edition of We're in Pandemic.
We're sitting in for John Fredericks on the John Fredericks Show today outside the Beltway.
I want to thank everybody.
We got so much intense intensity, massive news out of Georgia.
We're going to get Mr. Favarito on here.
He is the driving force and back of this lawsuit.
A major announcement by a judge today about ballots in Georgia.
We're going to get to all of that.
A huge rally is going to take place later in the evening in Arizona.
We're going to have Matt Gaetz on the 5 o'clock hour.
We've got Sean Parnell.
We're going to have Mike Lindell.
So we're trying to juggle a lot of balls.
I want to go now out to Arizona with one of the top investigative reporters around.
You know him for our man that's been on the border doing investigating reporting about the border emergency and the border crisis.
Drew Hernandez is in Mesa tonight at the rally.
Drew, put us in the room.
Tell us what's going on.
What can we expect at this big rally tonight out in Arizona?
unidentified
I think one of the main issues here in Arizona is definitely the southern border, Arizona being a border state.
So Congressman Gates is here, obviously gets slated to speak tonight, and Congresswoman Greene.
So the Arizona people are definitely concerned with what is taking place at the southern border under the weak, passive leadership of Joe Biden.
Things are not getting any better.
They're only getting worse, not just only in Arizona.
But in Texas, California, across the entire nation's southern border, I'm pretty sure these things will be talked about.
I'm sure the Arizona people want these things to be talked about in terms of the human smuggling, the human trafficking, the drug trafficking, even some of the illegal arms that are being trafficked over the southern border here in Yuma County, Tucson, Arizona as well.
So these are some big issues.
That I think the Arizona people want to hear about.
And obviously the audit that's taking place as well, which is a huge issue that the mainstream media doesn't want to talk about, which is a whole story within itself.
steve bannon
Drew, I want to go back to the southern border for a second.
You've done some of the best reporting out there.
I know our audience gets it, but what do you think the nation's missing since the mainstream media does not want to cover this?
What actions have the Biden administration taken or what are they not doing to take this from a crisis to an emergency in your opinion?
unidentified
Well, in my professional opinion, I don't think it's so much as a border crisis.
I've actually stopped calling it that.
I think it's a strategic border crisis.
Because when Joe Biden was running for president in 2020, he literally called to immediately surge the border.
And in context, he was speaking directly about Central America.
So everything you see unfolding in 2021 under his presidency with this border crisis at the southern border is strategically planned.
We can't sit here and think that Joe Biden doesn't know what he's doing.
Of course he knows what he's doing when he calls for a border surge.
They know exactly what that means and what that's going to look like at our southern border.
And by the way, the Biden administration was briefed by the transition team Not to run back or not to pull back any of the Trump policies, immigration policies, that would actually halt or put a stop to a border crisis.
They didn't listen.
They pulled them back anyways.
And this has continued to get worse and worse and worse.
That's why I say this isn't just a border crisis.
It's strategically planned.
It's allowed.
And it's a travesty and it's disgusting what this administration is doing to desperate people that are coming from a third world country.
They're taking advantage of them and using them for simply votes.
steve bannon
Drew, the rally tonight's called the America First Rally.
It's got the notorious MTG, who's the absolute fire breather up here in Capitol Hill, and Matt Gaetz, another fire-breathing populist.
You had tonight, and this is about the audit today, Joe Scarborough, who is from the district, representing the district that Matt Gaetz is at, had a complete meltdown today on MSNBC.
We've played it a couple of times.
What do you think is going on with the people of Arizona?
Are they now dug in and want to see this audit continue on and get done?
Are the patriots there prepared to back off?
Or is Joe Scarborough and the mainstream media, the progressive left, are they going to be able to browbeat the patriots into waving off of this?
unidentified
Well, I think that tells you everything you need to know.
Obviously, Arizona was a crucial, controversial swing state at the end of the 2020 election, where Fox News even called it a little early and people criticized them for that.
But I think the big thing is the reaction that's coming from the left in terms of election fraud or voter fraud.
Why is it that they continue to try and suppress it?
If they are so transparent and there's nothing to hide, why are they so threatened anytime anybody wants to look into these things?
And I think the American people aren't these conspiracy theorists, and they're not trying to cultivate or engineer some kind of narrative about the election.
I think the American people just want closure.
And I think as Americans, whether left or right, I think we deserve closure, and I think that's what a lot of people in Arizona simply want.
And then when we find out what actually took place in this election, I think we'll go from there.
steve bannon
You know, there was a Morning Consult poll out, Drew, about the first poll, I think, for 2024 that put Biden and Trump up head to head, and they made a big deal about how Biden was up, I don't know, 10 or 12 points.
But one of the key things, if you know how to read polls, is that Biden, and this is really during his honeymoon, the mainstream media has been, you know, so supportive of what he's doing.
Obviously, the pop culture, all of that.
Biden was under 50% already.
I think Biden was at 48%, President Trump was at 36%.
What is your feeling out there among working class people, and particularly among Hispanic middle class and working class?
Do you see a sense that people are waking up to the fact of what's actually going on, what the difference in a Biden administration is for security, for jobs, and for other items, particularly national security, than what the Trump MAGA movement was?
Are you getting a sense among the Hispanic community that maybe some shift to start to consider President Trump?
unidentified
Absolutely.
You know what's interesting about that, Steven?
I'm glad you bring that up.
I think what's very interesting about that point you make is it's only been, what, three and a half months?
We've got four years to go.
And I think millions of people are waking up to the reality that this president is destroying their lives, destroying the economy, destroying national security.
I mean, they blame the gas prices hiking up due to a cyber attack, which, in my opinion, is a failure either way you look at it.
So I think people are waking up to the reality.
drew hernandez
I mean, Barack Obama led us to the rise of populism and Donald Trump and the entire Trump era.
unidentified
So we'll see what happens at the end of President Biden's presidency, because I think more people are going to wake up to the reality.
The economy is going to get worse.
Their lives are going to get worse, taxes are going to go higher, and they're not going to have this comfortable American lifestyle that they once had, especially with all the radical Marxism coming in, all the radical socialists coming in, all these authoritarians on the left that want to take away their freedoms and constitutional rights.
I think people need to feel what this stuff actually looks like in the real world for them to start voiding differently.
I think, you know, we could only say this You could be preaching all day long, Steve, on your show.
I could be preaching all day long on my show.
We could all be preaching these things to stay away, stay away, stay away, but... I mean, until people actually start experiencing the damages of these ideas, maybe that'll change their minds.
And I think that is happening.
steve bannon
One last thing, Drew.
Walk us through, what time is this going to start tonight?
We're going to have Matt Gaetz on the top of the five o'clock hour, but just walk us through the event tonight.
What time does it start?
How many people?
The one that took place at the Villages was absolutely crazy.
I mean, it was packed.
I think they had a room.
They cut the room in half at the last minute.
I think 500 people could get in, but they had 1,500 or 2,000 outside.
What do you expect today?
I think it's in Mesa, Arizona.
What do you expect today at this rally?
unidentified
I think there'll be a good turnout.
I think after what happened with the 2020 election, I think a lot of people, they really do feel demoralized.
I think a lot of people feel like they've been lied to.
I think a lot of people feel like they've been cheated.
This movement's not going away anytime soon.
I think this is the future of the GOP.
I think this is the future of the mega movement.
I think this is some foreshadows of the future of the America First movement that you're going to start to see Uh, starting with the midterms and moving forward even in the 2024 election.
So I think what they want us to believe, Steve, is that the silent majority isn't even in existence.
I think they want that.
I think, I think the propaganda that comes out is they want us to believe that we are the minority.
They want us to believe that we don't exist, so we feel demoralized.
So I encourage people To get with like-minded people that believe in the same values as you do, to get together to save this country, especially if you're in the area.
And I think a lot of people are waking up to that, and they're realizing that they're not the minority, they're actually the majority that are patriots and love this country and don't want to see it fade away.
steve bannon
Drew, how do people follow you on social media?
What are your handles?
unidentified
People could follow me on Gab, Drew H. Live, Twitter, Drew H. Live, and on Instagram, Drew Hernandez Live.
steve bannon
Brother, thank you so much.
Great report.
unidentified
Thank you.
steve bannon
Drew Hernandez, live out in Arizona.
We're going to go back.
Matt Gaetz is going to be speaking now.
We're going to go back to Matt at the top of the time, 5 o'clock.
I want to go now to Minnesota and Doug Wardlow.
Doug Wardlow is running against a radical, Keith Ellis, the Attorney General out there.
Doug Wardlow is running in a Republican primary to face Keith Ellis.
He faced him last time.
These two ran.
He barely lost.
Doug has written an amazing piece about kind of the constitutionality of what's going on out in Arizona with the Board of Supervisors in Maricopa County in American Greatness, the great magazine of the Trump movement.
Doug, walk us through.
We've got a minute here and I want to hold you over to the break.
Walk us through what the logic was of your piece, sir.
unidentified
Absolutely.
And thanks for having me on, Steve.
You know, Thomas Jefferson said that elections, the elective franchise, Is the arc that protects our constitutional order.
He was exactly right.
The public must have confidence in the outcome of elections because if the elective franchise is not functioning properly, then it delegitimizes government because the elective franchise is the vehicle through which sovereignty, which resides in the people, comes down to legitimize and empower government.
So if there is, if confidence is shaken in that, it's not just about making sure that the candidate with the most votes wins, which is also incredibly important.
But it goes even beyond that.
If we don't have that confidence, then it shakes the very conception of legitimacy of our laws, lawmakers, and those who enforce the law.
And that's why it's absolutely critical that we get to the bottom of what happened in November and shed light on all the facts.
steve bannon
What was the thing that you found most offensive about what the Maricopa County supervisors are doing to kind of thwart what the Senate is trying to accomplish to get to the bottom of November 3rd?
unidentified
Right, well, a number of things.
This audit is very important.
The State Senate has determined that there are serious questions about the election in Maricopa County, and it's unfortunate the county is not cooperating with the audit.
First and foremost, the deletion of an important election database.
Now, of course, it has been recovered, but it shouldn't have been deleted in the first instance.
The forensic team recovered it.
It should never have been deleted.
The question is, why wouldn't Maricopa County want to turn over all relevant data?
And also there are questions about the number of ballots in each batch, the reported number of ballots differing from the actual number of ballots in the number of batches, sometimes by 10, 20, 30 votes in a batch of 200.
That's an incredibly high error rate, and we need to have answers about why that is the case.
steve bannon
Doug, just hang on.
I'm going to hold you through the break.
We're going to take a short commercial break.
We're going to turn with Doug Wardlow, running for AG up in Minnesota, 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.
steve bannon
Go to warroomdefense.com today to find out how to boost your immune system.
Whether you think this pandemic started with a bioweapon from the Chinese Communist Party out of the Wuhan lab, or if you think it's a total and complete hoax, the one thing you have learned is that it's essential for you to boost your immune system.
Go to warroomdefense.com today.
You get the free vitamin D3 and zinc.
You got to pay shipping and handling, but you get information about your immune system.
Remember, this entire show is about human agency and human action.
Make sure you take action today.
Go to waranddefense.com.
One of the things that's been very impressive here, we had Jeff Bartos from Pennsylvania running for the United States Senate.
We had Josh Mandel running for the United States Senate from Ohio.
Both of those, like Vernon Jones last night.
Vernon Jones is an individual running for governor of Georgia in a Republican primary.
He came out the other day and said, hey, they have to have a complete forensic audit.
In Georgia, Bartos said there's got to be a complete forensic audit in Pennsylvania.
Josh Mandel supports, as a Senate candidate, supports having these forensic audits in all the battleground states and maybe even more than that, expand beyond that.
So I've got to ask you, Doug Wardlow, you're running for Attorney General against Keith Ellison, one of the most radical individuals in politics in the nation.
Do you support, you wrote this great piece, American Greatness, about Maricopa County.
Do you think If it's justified that state senates throughout these questionable states like Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Georgia, should they take action and also move to have full forensic audits?
unidentified
Well, yes, absolutely they should.
Wherever there are serious questions about the election, we need to have, we need to get the bottom of what actually happened back in November.
We need to get the facts so that we can restore public confidence in the accuracy of the outcome of elections. It's incredibly important.
steve bannon
So we just lost Lord Luck, and we're trying to get him back.
Had a little problem there on our tech. A very big day today. Also a major ruling down in Georgia from a judge. They're actually, I think, on 10 a.m. on...
on May 28th, going to actually open up a certain amount of ballots.
I think some of the ballots in Fulton County, right?
Some of the Fulton County ballots.
And this is going to be insanely controversial.
We're going to have the individual whose court case actually drove this, is going to join us here, is going to join us momentarily.
We have Doug back.
Doug, I'm sorry.
I was just talking about this Georgia court case that looks like it's now leading to actually people getting their hands on the ballots and starting at least part of an audit.
But I want to put the question back to you again.
Where it's justified in these states that are still kind of uncertain exactly what happened, do you believe it's the right of the state legislature, particularly state senates, to get involved and start to call for properly supervised forensic audits?
unidentified
Yes, absolutely.
Wherever it's appropriate, where there are serious questions raised in a number of the battleground states, it's entirely appropriate and necessary, really, to do comprehensive, careful audits, properly supervised audits, to make sure that we can understand all the facts about what happened back in November.
Because so many serious questions have been raised, and a lot of the public, their confidence in the functioning of the elected franchise really has been shaken.
So we need to restore that to really shore up our constitutional order.
It's, it is that important.
This is an absolutely critical thing that we must do.
We need to get to the bottom of what, what happened.
And, you know, we also need just, we need officials across the country to take election integrity much more seriously, including right here in Minnesota, where we have an attorney general, unfortunately, who has no time for election integrity.
Keith Ellison, the most radical attorney general in the country, a standard bearer and leader of the radical national left that wants to transform America and weaken our country.
He has no time for election integrity.
He'll do whatever it takes to stay in power.
And that's that's really unfortunate.
But I'll be replacing him in about 18 months.

Let's talk about that.
You know, this attorney general's race, I believe when we get down to it is going to be one of the most important races in the country.
It's going to get tremendous, not just national focus, but I believe global focus.
Talk to us for a second about Keith Ellison.
Why do you say he make the case about why you believe he's so radical?
unidentified
Well, Keith Ellison, you know, so after the Derek Chauvin verdict came down, he went out to the cameras and he said that the verdict was not justice, but was accountability.
Now that shows that, and then he talked about the need for real justice would, he said, would require systemic change and societal transformation.
So that's what he's about.
He's about pushing a radical agenda forward.
And he looks at individual cases as just pieces in a larger social and political agenda.
That's why he's so radical.
And he's close allies with Ilan Omar.
Ilan Elmore, one of the most radical far left members of Congress.
And he has got close ties to Louis Farrakhan.
He worked for Louis Farrakhan back in the mid nineties.
Louis Farrakhan, a horrible, horrible anti-Semite.
Keith Ellison is about as radical as they come.
You know, he's got a long history of anti-police bias.
Keith Ellison, back a couple of decades ago, he was at a rally for Kathleen Saleh.
I also know Sarah Jane Olsen, who was convicted of planting pipe bombs under cop cars in Los Angeles in 1975.
And he had good things to say about her.
He's been supporting cop killers for his career.
His entire career is based on this concept of pushing forward critical race theory and transforming America and weakening our country.
And we just cannot have that.
He's not fit to be the top law enforcement official in the state of Minnesota or anywhere else for that matter.
We need an attorney general who's going to actually stand up for law and order and look what's happening in Minneapolis and across our state here in Minnesota.
And then it spilled out into other states last summer.
After the death of George Floyd, we had Minneapolis burning the ground, large blocks of Minneapolis burning, and St.
Paul burning, and Keith Ellison, he stood back and did nothing.
Did absolutely nothing, but he did go out to the cameras at a press conference, and he told people that they would be right to direct anger at the police, effectively encouraging further violence.
So it doesn't get more radical than Keith Ellison, and he needs to be replaced.
steve bannon
Doug, how do people get access to you?
What's your website?
How can people find out more about Doug Wardlow?
unidentified
Absolutely, so go to DougWardlowAG.com and learn more about the campaign there and volunteer and donate and all that good stuff.
We absolutely need to have an Attorney General, and I will be the Attorney General, who restores law and order and really is going to be the tip of the spear for advancing freedom and restoring our state and our nation to its founding principles.
steve bannon
Doug, great piece in American Greatness.
We're going to get it up in the live chat for the audience right now.
Thank you very much, sir.
OK, I want to turn to another individual that's driving the action.
That's Garland Favarito joins us from Georgia.
His lawsuit is what has got this blockbuster decision.
Garland, take it from the top.
Walk us through exactly what the judge said today.
What's exactly been called for and going to happen and why is it important?
unidentified
Steve, it's great to be back with you again.
The judge today gave us, granted us the rights to do a forensic inspection on all 147,000 Fulton County mail-in ballots, which are in question from the November 3rd election.
So that was a decision we felt like we were going to get all along, but it's painfully slow, but the judge covered all the bases, wanted to make sure it was fair to each side, and we're very pleased with his ruling today.
steve bannon
Is there some question?
Somebody, I think I've heard it batted back and forth that you think there's 30,000 illegitimate and no chain of custody ballots in this.
Of the 147, I realize this is kind of a massive decision, right, for this forensic review.
But I keep hearing that there's 30,000.
Did you have a question?
I mean, you've been at this for a while.
Actually, you've been at this for, I think, decades.
But on this particularly, the election on November 3rd, you're like a dog with a bone.
You have not given up on this.
What is the real controversy about those mail-in ballots as you see it?
unidentified
Yeah, thanks for asking, Steve.
We don't really know what the count is.
The four senior poll managers who swore that they handled counterfeit ballots in the Fulton County audit on November 14th and 15th, believe that it will scale into the tens of thousands based on what they saw and the percentage that they were.
But the truth is, we don't know how many there are, if there are one, how many there would be.
But the facts are that the people of Georgia, the voters of Georgia, and the voters all across the country, since this was a federal election, deserve to know the truth.
Whatever that truth is, that's what we've been all about.
But it could very well scale into the tens of thousands.
We just don't know until we actually get our electronic equipment on and our eyes on the balance.
steve bannon
Garland, around the nation, we had Joe Scarborough have a meltdown today, but the progressive left and the Democratic Party in the media is melting down, and now it's actually showing that we're getting traction in other states, particularly Georgia, which Peter Navarro says is the cesspool of this entire operation.
I think you start on the 28th.
Is that the next date people should watch?
Or are they going to try to reverse this ruling from this judge?
Are you still going to be tied up in court, you think, with appeals?
Or is this a go for May 28th?
unidentified
No, I think it's a go, Steve, for May 28th.
We have to work out some details.
We have to present a revised plan that meets the judge's concerns.
We understand his concerns.
We think that We've been working on that plan for months, and we can easily revise it, I think, to meet the latest rounds of concern.
So once we do that, we'll present that plan next week, and I think that he will find it acceptable.
I think even opposing counsel has had difficulty finding anything to object to because each time they raise an objection, we change the plan to over You know, overcome their objection, and they're not left with anything much to object to.
So I feel it's everything's a go.
You know, we've been feeling good about this for months, and as of May 28th, I think that they will get together.
The councils will get together.
I think the experts will get together.
They'll go to the site where we're going to do this, and the room where it'll happen, and they'll work out the final details based on the plan that we Submit, which will be done by myself and my co-planner, Sean Drennan.
Garland, ahead of people, we have to bounce.
steve bannon
How do people get more information?
Do you have a website, a social media?
How do people find out about you?
unidentified
Yeah, thank you, Steve.
Yeah, it is VoterGA.org.
And we have social media, that's on VoterGA.org.
And we're still on Twitter and Facebook for the moment.
Facebook is VoterGA.
And the May 28th will not be a hearing.
It's just a meeting.
of the experts and the attorneys to work out the details.
steve bannon
For our entire audience, if you want to support a real warrior and a fighter that would not back down, it's Garland Favarito.
Go to Voter GA today.
We're gonna make sure we push this hard.
Garland, thank you so much.
Heroic effort, sir.
unidentified
Thank you, Stephen.
We appreciate your efforts to get the word out around the country.
steve bannon

joe scarborough
I'll just say, throw dirt all over Everything that symbol represents.
And you do it every day.
unidentified
This is January 6th.
joe scarborough
You do it every... This is not about Joe Biden.
This stopped being about Joe Biden a long time ago.
This is about you.
This is about you playing in to what every one of our enemies wants you to play into.
That American democracy is not worth being trusted.
That American democracy is no different than Russia.
If you believe that, I will say to you what many of you said in the 1960s.
America, love it or leave it.
If you don't have respect in American democracy anymore, If you don't respect Madisonian checks and balances, if your guy doesn't win, if that's the new rules of engagement for this great republic, then just leave our country!
Because you're unworthy of it!
And there are millions of immigrants who will come here and raise their right hand and buy into the creed and believe that we are exceptional!
That believe American democracy is the greatest government on the face of the earth!
And they will do it proudly!
They will salute the flag proudly!
And most importantly, they will fight!
For what that flag represents?
Well, you shame yourself.
Well, you disgrace yourself.
Well, you disgrace our country in the eyes of the world.
Yes, this is all on you.
Get the facts.
Live in the light.
Follow the truth.
And love this country.
And stop this.
Or leave.
Or leave.
If you're going to believe, A reality TV show hosts lies about the American Republic?
Is desegration of American exceptionalism?
Then just get the hell out.
We don't want you here.
unidentified
That's all I gotta say.
You couldn't have said it better.
joe scarborough
Well, thank you.
unidentified
No, I really appreciate that.
steve bannon
Sean Parnell, as an army officer, led a, I believe, a platoon in Afghanistan for over 400 day deployment in some of the most dangerous territory on the face of this earth.
Now I want to go to Sean Parnell.
Sean, before, I know you're running for the Senate, but before I ask you a question about that, can you please tell us briefly about your military career in combat?
unidentified
Yeah, I was a young kid in college as an elementary education major here in Western Pennsylvania.
Towers came down on 9-11.
A few days later I went to the recruiter, told him I wanted to join the infantry, go to airborne school, go to ranger school so I could be on the front lines of the fight.
A few years later I got my wish and went to combat for 485 days.
Our mission was real simple.
Find Osama Bin Laden.
Unfortunately we didn't back then in 2006.
We found lots of bad guys.
I think my platoon killed over 350 Islamic radicals and terrorists that Would have done a lot of damage to both Afghanistan and in the world and the world is indeed a better place without him But 85% casualty rate in my platoon.
I was wounded as well and shortly after my time in Afghanistan I was medically retired as a captain Sean as a veteran, what is your observations and commentary about what Joe Scarborough said this morning?
Well, I'll tell you this.
I believe that this country is exceptional.
I also believe that election integrity is worth defending.
This audit in Arizona, Steve, the reason why we're doing this is because 50% of this country doesn't believe in the results of the 2020 election or Or they have questions, right?
Completely legitimate questions.
This was an election that was held in the middle of a once-in-a-hundred-year pandemic, where we used mass mail-in systems in states all across the country for the first time, where we're sending out tens of thousands, even probably millions of mail-in ballots to people.
And by the way, this isn't because President Trump is saying this.
People have eyes, they have ears, they can see and hear on their own, and they just want some clarity, right? And so our government, right, both here in Pennsylvania and the Biden administration, said this was the freest, it was the best, it was the most secure election in our history.
Well, ladies and gentlemen, this is your opportunity to prove it with this audit in Arizona.
steve bannon
Sean, there was a lot of controversy about even your race against Conor Lamb that has not been brought to, you know, we have not really gotten to the bottom of it.
Do you support, we see in Georgia it's happening right now, Vernon Jones called for it yesterday, or a couple days ago in a press conference, he was on the show yesterday, called for it.
You've got this judge who's made this, just this decision that's rocking the political world right now.
Do you believe we should have a forensic audit in the state of Pennsylvania to get to the bottom of all the issues there, including your race against Conor Lamb?
unidentified
I mean, sure.
Absolutely.
I would support that.
And Steve, I have to tell you, this isn't about me, right?
I would have supported a forensic audit.
In fact, I would have welcomed it after President Trump won in 2016.
And I would support an audit after Joe Biden, right?
It's very, very important.
I don't really care who wins.
It's not about that.
Of course, I want a conservative Republican to win, right?
But this is about the very fabric of our country, right?
This is about people trusting in the results of an election.
And if an audit, right, a forensic audit after 2016 could have prevented this country from having to go through four years of Russia hoax, right, spent with taxpayer dollars, I would have welcomed it on it then, and I welcome one now.
steve bannon
Sean, we want to have you back on early in the week.
I know you just got into this race for the Republican nomination.
We want to hear everything about your thoughts about Pennsylvania, the economy, what's going on there.
Particularly, I want to hear your thoughts about the military, about trying to jam this critical race theory in there, but we got to bounce.
How do people get more information?
How do they find out more about your Senate run?
How do they find out more about you as an individual?
unidentified
Well, look, you can go to ParnellForSenate.com, but don't search for it on Google because Google is censoring my website.
You'll have to go to Bing, Yahoo, or DuckDuckGo.
But ParnellForSenate.com, you can learn all about my platform.
And if you feel inclined, contribute to the campaign and join the movement.
steve bannon
Sean, you're an American hero and a patriot.
Thank you for coming on today.
unidentified
Thanks, Steve.
Thanks for having me.
steve bannon
I want to turn to Mike Lindell.
Mike, Joe Scarborough, that was kind of aimed at you, sir.
What do you have to say?
What's your response to Joe Scarborough and Tamika?
mike lindell
Well, first of all, I'd like to go on his show, too.
I'm inviting myself right now.
Joe, if you want me on your show, I'll gladly show you all the evidence we have.
And I said on Jimmy Kimmel, I said, it wouldn't have mattered if Donald Trump was in office and they'd have put him in on December 14th or if he'd have won the election.
If having what we have right now, all the evidence we have of this cyber attack by China through these machines, I would for sure have turned it in and said, hey, we need to do something.
Of course, it would have been a lot easier because every Democrat would have been, whoa, whoa, they attacked our country.
Let's pull down the election.
It's like going through mud right now.
I mean, it's like, You know, this Joe, obviously him having a meltdown, he senses the inevitable.
He's probably watched absolute interference.
He knows we're going to get this to the Supreme Court in about five or six weeks.
This election is getting pulled down.
I've said it.
I've said to people today, Steve, I was with, I said, it's like having a royal flush in a poker game.
I already know we have that.
We have the Royal Flush, but we just aren't playing our cards yet because we want to make sure that they accept looking at them.
So confirmations like Arizona and these other places that are popping up now, Georgia, New Hampshire, Wisconsin, all these audits, they're all going to find the same thing.
This was an attack by China through these machines.
It doesn't matter if you're a Democrat or Republican.
This election needs to be pulled down and we've got to get rid of the machines.
It's that simple.
It's a very simple solution.
And because we can't ever, ever, ever go another election with these machines because this was a crime against humanity, quite frankly.
And for some guy going nuts on his program like that, I mean, what a spectacle of himself.
If they have nothing to hide, let's open them up then.
Hello.
steve bannon
That's what I want to talk about.
We only got a couple of minutes here.
I asked you to stay over.
We're going to go to Arizona after this, but I asked you to stay over because I have more questions.
But just one question we can answer in a couple of minutes.
Given the facts are starting to come out in Arizona with under 18% of the hand audits, the hand count redone are looked at, and without the canvassing really starting, and just some preliminary things about the database of machines, look how nasty they're getting already.
They're becoming unhinged because the Patriots refused to stop.
How nasty do you think these people are going to get, Mike Lindell?
mike lindell
Well, you know how they attacked me right out of the gate.
I think...
You know, for myself, I've seen it.
I've went through so much.
I've never seen anything like it.
It's going to get worse before it gets better because they don't want that truth.
These people, they already know it.
What he just said, your guest right before me here, he said 50% of the country believes that there was election fraud.
No, it's 40% Democrats and 80% Republican.
It's way more than 50%.
They're side one that was trying to use them to hack the election.
I mean, use that party.
Use the Democrat Party.
But even Democrats, my friends that are Democrats, they all know that this was an attack on our country now and it's going to get worse.
You watch these hosts like you had Rachel the other day flip out and now you got Morning Show.
Steve, I really think I need to calm them and get them on.
I need to go on their shows, show them the evidence so that they can tell the truth to the American people and quit.
You know, otherwise they're going to come so unhinged we won't know what to do with them.
They'll need treatment.
steve bannon
That's the first time sending Mike Lindell in to calm somebody down.
I've got to wrap my head around that for a second.
Mike, if you could hang with us.
We're going to take a short commercial break.
We're going to start the second hour.
This finishes up our special for sitting in for John Fredericks' War Room Pandemic special.
We're going to take a short commercial break.
We're going to return with Mike Lindell.
We're also going to go to Arizona.
Spread the word all through Hong Kong!
We will fight till they're all gone!
We rejoice when there is no more!
Let's take down the CCP!
