Well the virus has now killed more than a hundred people in China and new cases have been confirmed around the world. | |
| You don't want to frighten the American public. | ||
| France and South Korea have also got evacuation plans. | ||
| But you need to prepare for and assume. | ||
| Broadly warning Americans to avoid all non-essential travel to China. | ||
| This is going to be a real serious problem. | ||
| France, Australia, Canada, the US, Singapore, Cambodia, Vietnam, the list goes on. | ||
| Health officials are investigating more than 100 possible cases in the US. | ||
| Germany, a man has contracted the virus. | ||
| The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide. | ||
| Japan, where a bus driver contracted the virus. | ||
| Coronavirus has killed more than 100 people there and infected more than 4,500. | ||
| We have to prepare for the worst, always. | ||
| Because if you don't, then the worst happens. | ||

War Room. | |
| Pandemic. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| 56 million downloads. | ||
| You're in the War Room. | ||
| Live from the nation's capitol. | ||
| It's Tuesday, the 1st of June, the Year of the Lord 2021. | ||
| We're live everywhere at John Frederick's Radio Network throughout the nation. | ||
| I want to thank John and the team, particularly the new station down in Atlanta, 1690 AM, 1690 WMLB, that's changing the course of Georgia politics. | ||
| Also, Real America's Voice, the great streaming service of the Trump Revolution. | ||
| They're up on Dish Channel 219 on the satellite, Comcast 113 on cable. | ||
| All over. | ||
| They've got a bunch of big announcement distribution deals. | ||
| They're doing Roku, Pluto, Gab, Rumble, Telegram. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All of it. | |
| You can get us anywhere. | ||
| Get into your cadre and make sure you're, during the show, telling us what you think. | ||
| Also, GNU's GTV in Mandarin. | ||
| Simulcast in Mandarin and blown through the firewall later in the day. | ||
| This week we're going to celebrate the first anniversary of the new federal state of China, kind of the government in exile. | ||
| That's all the diaspora, the Chinese people, fighting the transnational criminal organization is the Chinese Communist Party. | ||
| We've got a lot of big announcements. | ||
| Who's going to be speaking at this? | ||
| I can tell you that Rahim is going to be a big part of this and the National Pulse. | ||
| National Pulse is revered throughout the world by the diaspora, the Chinese people. | ||
| It's unbelievable. | ||
| Every time I go and talk to people, they talk about Rahim Kassam, Natalie Winters, the great reporting that they have done. | ||
| So Rahim, great job. | ||
| And I know your stuff on Fauci has just been unbelievable. | ||
| And when Fauci is finally held to account, and he will be held to account, it's going to be a lot because of the National Pulse reporting. | ||
| If Fauci has any thoughts in his mind that he thinks he's going to get away with all of this. | ||
| Firstly, he ain't seen nothing yet from us. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Secondly, people are starting to talk. | |
| Dr. Fauci, the people who you had conversations with 10-15 years ago are beginning to talk. | ||
| Things are coming out. | ||
| This is all going to come out. | ||
| By the way, there's exploding news going to come out of Arizona. | ||
| There's exploding news coming out of Georgia. | ||
| The whole, what I call the 3 November movement. | ||
| There's some things going to happen in Arizona in the next 24, 48, 72 hours. | ||
| They're going to be explosive. | ||
| This movement is metastasizing. | ||
| It's going all over. | ||
| I want to give MSNBC a heads up. | ||
| It's going all over the country. | ||
| It's going to Pennsylvania. | ||
| It's going to Michigan. | ||
| It's going to Wisconsin. | ||
| It's going to New Hampshire. | ||
| It's going to Nevada. | ||
| Okay, we're going to get full forensic audits everywhere we look. | ||
| Started in Georgia. | ||
| A lot of controversy down there about the ballots over the weekend. | ||
| I will tell you, That's definitely a tell. | ||
| The criminal defense attorneys they hired late last week. | ||
| That's a big tell of the nervousness of certain authorities down there. | ||
| You don't hire heavy-duty smash mouths. | ||
| The guys that represented Ray Lewis in the controversy around that Super Bowl, what happened at that nightclub after the Super Bowl, and these are the top defense attorneys, criminal defense attorneys in Atlanta hired by the authorities down there. | ||
| I want to go now to one of the You know, Cortez talked about emerging voices. | ||
| The one thing we'd love on this platform, because this is all about human agency and human action, is actually, you know, make sure this audience knows who the leaders of this movement are, particularly the next generation of leaders. | ||
| And we're very proud to provide this platform. | ||
| It's one guy we've wanted to have on for a long time. | ||
| Colby Covington now joins us, a UFC, obviously, a fighting champion, but also a champion, a MAGA champion. | ||
| And he's got the courage. | ||
| Remember, courage is contagious. | ||
| He's got the courage to call out kind of woke culture. | ||
| It's one of the things I've been most impressed about, particularly as sports and particularly celebrities fall into this corporate wokeness, right? | ||
| You see very few people that have the courage to really stand up, because I understand it's going to have a massive impact immediately on their financial situation as they're ostracized, and you can tell they're real heroes. | ||
| And Colby Covington is a true hero. | ||
| So Colby, thank you very much for joining us here in the War Room. | ||
| The first question I got to ask you is, how did you become, you're about as pure MAGA as you can get, and you've been MAGA for a while. | ||
| What was it about most athletes either don't understand politics that much, don't want to get involved in politics, but you've been at the forefront of this movement. | ||
| Tell us why. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You know, the reason is the truth, you know, and I like facts. | |
| That's how I live my life. | ||
| I based on facts. | ||
| I don't I don't live in an alternate world. | ||
| I don't listen to mainstream fake news. | ||
| I listen to facts, you know, and some of the MAGA movements about it is the truth. | ||
| And, you know, I'm all about exposing the truth and letting the people of America know that, you know, you don't have to just be on the left side if you want to align your pockets, you know, and bow down to the woke mob. | ||
| You you can be on the right side, the good side, and And live a life full of truth, you know? | ||
| And the biggest thing is that I'm in the UFC, so I'm an independent contractor, so I don't have to bow down to anybody. | ||
| No one's gonna tell me how I'm gonna think or tell me what I'm gonna do. | ||
| I don't have a commissioner breathing down my neck saying, hey, if you don't say this or run with this narrative, then, you know, we're gonna cut you or take away your endorsement. | ||
| So, you know, thankfully in the UFC, you know, I'm able to speak my voice. | ||
| You know, it's amazing. | ||
| Obviously, you know, when Josh Rogin wrote the book about chaos under heaven, about the Trump administration, he identified the different groups. | ||
| He said the Super Hawks are led by Navarro and Bannon, and their thing is not to compete with the Chinese Communist Party, not to confront them, but to destroy them root and branch. | ||
| So we know most of the hardcore anti-CCP people throughout the world, right? | ||
| All the diaspora, the people who have left, we're very familiar and are in contact with these people all the time. | ||
| Your name comes up all the time as throughout the world, one of the few handful of celebrities or sports figures that have stood up for the Chinese people and called out the woke culture, particularly the NBA. | ||
| And what I've loved about it is because you're a warrior's warrior, you said to go, hey, the softest group of athletes in the world dining off the slave labor of China. | ||
| And you've gone after LeBron James. | ||
| You've gone at the top. | ||
| Talk to us about that. | ||
| And actually, In doing that, did any of your agents or handlers, anybody say, hey Colby, you got to watch out here because it's the NBA, it's celebrities, you're going to get it. | ||
| And you defended the Hong Kong situation. | ||
| You've defended the little guy, the Lao Bai Jing, old hunter names in China, better than virtually any politician in the world. | ||
| So tell us about that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, you know, I just see all the hypocrisy. | |
| Hypocrisy from LeBron. | ||
| He claims to be about social justice, but he won't say free Hong Kong. | ||
| He won't talk about the Uyghurs that are locked up in concentration camps in China. | ||
| He won't talk about all the women that he's profiting off of in his Chinese sweatshops that are making all his shoes for dollars that he's coming over to America and selling them for hundreds and profiting millions off of here in America. | ||
| I just wanted to call a spade a spade. | ||
| I wasn't going to let him just Do the people and make the people think that he's a social justice warrior and he's on this pedestal No, LeBron James is not on a pedestal. | ||
| That guy is a piece of crap. | ||
| He's a piece of garbage I mean he uses that that school that he's funding as a tax write-off and then he wants to claim like he's some good guy No, he's not a good guy man. | ||
| All he cares about is lying in his own pockets and bowing down to China. | ||
| The real heroes in this country are the heroes of law enforcement, are the heroes in military. | ||
| Those are the people that are protecting our freedoms and fighting for us every day and sacrificing the ultimate sacrifice, their lives, to keep us free. | ||
| Do you think that message is getting through to the American people? | ||
| I know MAGA believes it, but do you think with all the corporate media out there, do you think this whole effort to defund the police and not have the back of the police, do you think this whole thing of the 1619 Project, which basically says the Constitution is a legal document that codified systemic racism in this country, do you think the whole wokeness of corporate America, all these soyboys that run these companies are all bowing down to this. | ||
| Do you think the message is getting out to average working class Americans that maybe are not part of the MAGA movement? | ||
|
unidentified
|
You know, I can't say that I fully think that it's gotten the message out to all those people because look at where they get the main source of their news. | |
| It's through the mainstream media, which is complete fake news, and big tech, you know, social media. | ||
| That's where people are getting all their information from these days. | ||
| So, we know that, you know, big tech is the most corrupt, you know, organization in the world, man. | ||
| They've hid so many, you know, different truthful events, you know, the Hunter Biden laptop, you know. | ||
| The real truth behind the COVID coronavirus, you know, that originated in China and all the other things. | ||
| So these people are getting all their information from, you know, the fake news. | ||
| And so they're not really getting the information, but people are starting to wake up because they're starting to see everything that's going on in America and how it's trying to be divided by the left. | ||
| And they're not standing for that anymore. | ||
| So I think the MAGA movement is growing stronger than ever. | ||
| And the best is yet to come for us. | ||
| You know, Rahim and Natalie Winters and the team over at National Pulse under his leadership has done such a great job on Fauci. | ||
| We talk about fake news. | ||
| Give me your opinion, you know, because you didn't get a degree in biology from Cambridge University, right? | ||
| But talk to me about, just in common sense, what do you think about Fauci and how this whole thing's been jammed down people's throats? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, Fauci, you know, the guys changed his tune, you know, five or six different times. | |
| First it was no mask, then it was one mask, then it was two masks, now it's ten masks with a paper bag over your face. | ||
| I mean, it's a complete joke, you know. | ||
| It's do as I say, not as I do. | ||
| I mean, meanwhile, Fauci's at these baseball games with a mask off. | ||
| Meanwhile, he's behind scenes, and before he's going on camera, he's enjoying his life, no mask, you know, not doing and preaching what he talks about, just doing, you know, what he's trying to pass the agenda, you know, and all the fake news that he's trying to spread to the people. | ||
| So, you know, as soon as the camera turns on, oh Fauci, he's throwing on a mask, you know, and And so it's just, it's a complete joke. | ||
| You know, how is it that Dr. Fauci is the highest paid government official in America today? | ||
| That makes no sense to me. | ||
| And, you know, the guy's a complete fool. | ||
| The more as you press this, the more as you press particularly things like Fauci, do you think that you're hearing the media, do you think the media is starting to change on their perspective on Fauci? | ||
| I mean, we know in the last 72 hours there's been basically a change. | ||
| They're trying to put a new narrative out about, oh, it's lab leak versus, you know, they want to say the lab leak came from bats they took from the Laotian border. | ||
| We know that's a lie. | ||
| It's all gain of function. | ||
| This was all weaponized. | ||
| But do you see a change as you watch the news and filter out the fake news and look for stuff that's real? | ||
| Have you seen, in what you consume, a change in the perspective on Fauci? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, you know, the biggest thing lately, I haven't really been paying attention to the news. | |
| So I haven't been watching the narrative. | ||
| I just know every time I watch the news, I automatically assume it's the opposite of whatever they're saying. | ||
| So, you know, if the news actually started doing their real job and reporting the actual news and truth, then I'd start, you know, being a little bit like, oh, what's going on? | ||
| You know, is this real or is this not? | ||
| So. | ||
| You know, I don't pay attention to fake news. | ||
| We all know they're just trying to shove their narrative down their throat, and I'm not going to stand for that. | ||
| I'm going to stand for the truth and the American values and principles that I was raised upon. | ||
| Let's talk about those values and principles. | ||
| We've got a couple of minutes. | ||
| We'd love to hold you over to the next through this commercial break, but about the raising of young men and about masculinity and what you hear all the stuff about toxic masculinity. | ||
| What are your thoughts on that or where we are as a country in the raising and training of young men to actually be stand up and be real men and to stand for something? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, you know, my friend Candace Owen, she's always talking about, you know, we need to keep, we need to keep manly men men, you know, or we need to make manly men men. | |
| And the big thing is, is, you know, we don't want to make our culture and men of these days so soft. | ||
| And that's what the left's trying to do. | ||
| They're trying to, you know, make all these men, you know, talk, they're trying to Transforming into a different gender. | ||
| They're trying to, you know, say it's OK for men to compete in women's sports when it's not. | ||
| You know, if you're born a boy, you know, then, you know, you should be a boy the rest of your life. | ||
| You know, you shouldn't be able to switch and then go play in women's sports. | ||
| You know, that's not fair to, you know, the women out there that are competing in sports. | ||
| It's not a fair playing field. | ||
| So, you know, I just think that they're trying to, you know, make men soft these days. | ||
| And, you know, they want them on that soy diet. | ||
| Let me, before I go, you said the NBA, I think you said the NBA are the softest athletes in the world. | ||
| What did you mean by that? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, I meant what I said, because the NBA, you know, those guys, they get cramps. | |
| Like LeBron James, he's sitting out a whole playoff series. | ||
| Or the NBA players, you know, they stub their toe and, oh, they can't play for a couple weeks, man. | ||
| Those guys aren't fighters, you know. | ||
| They're not patriots. | ||
| They're not standing up for what they believe in. | ||
| They're bowing down to the woke mob and, you know, they sprain their pinky and you won't see them for weeks. | ||
| They're not real fighters, you know. | ||
| Locked in a cage with a professional fighter, and they're trying to take my head off, you know, and that's real fighting, man. | ||
| You know, I'm fighting for my life in there with these bare hands. | ||
| I've made my whole life. | ||
| I'm not a privileged athlete like these NBA players. | ||
| So, LeBron James, you know, John Cena, you know, the Chinese finger puppets, they're a joke. | ||
| Okay, we'll take a short commercial break. | ||
| We'll return with the controversial Colby Covington, pure MAGA. | ||
| We return to the War Room in just a moment. | ||
|
unidentified
|
War Room Pandemic with Stephen K Banham. | |
| The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide. | ||
| War Room Pandemic. | ||
| Here's your host Stephen K Banham. | ||
| Okay, welcome back to the War Room. | ||
| We've got Colby Covington on UFC Fighter. | ||
| Raheem Kassam, Stephen K. Bannon, you're in the War Room. | ||
| Colby, gotta ask you a question. | ||
| John Cena came out, he's got some movie, you know, with a company, Universal, that kowtows to the CCP all the time. | ||
| He's sitting there apologizing, basically throwing, not just the Taiwanese people under the bus, but all the people in China, in mainland China, under the bus, and kowtowing to the CCP. | ||
| First off, in your opinion, is John Cena, in Colby Covington's opinion, is John Cena a tough guy? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Absolutely not. | |
| John Cena does play fighting, Steve. | ||
| I do real fighting. | ||
| And John Cena, he takes all these steroids, he has all these fake muscles, but he's got no backbone. | ||
| He's got no spine. | ||
| The thing is, is Taiwan, you are your own country. | ||
| We need to fight communism. | ||
| And the fact that John Cena is bowing down to the Chinese and trying to toe the line of his Chinese masters is an absolute disgrace to the American people and a slap in the face. | ||
| And speaking of slapping in the face, I promise you, Steve, if I ever get locked in a room or I see John Cena in a room, I will slap the taste out of his mouth. | ||
| Do you think he'd come back at you? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Absolutely not. | |
| What would he be able to do? | ||
| Like I said before, he's a fake fighter. | ||
| I'm a real fighter. | ||
| I take people's brain cells and I knock them out. | ||
| He does some scripted stuff and bows down to his Chinese finger puppets. | ||
| Rahim, you just put a story in the live chat. | ||
| I know you're talking about what's going on in China. | ||
| I know you want to talk to Colby about this. | ||
| So there's a story that comes out this weekend, Colby. | ||
| It says China to teach masculinity to boys because of changing gender roles. | ||
| Boys in China traditionally are expected to be strong leaders, get good grades and excel at sports. | ||
| but the gender balance in China is changing and therefore the Chinese Communist Party is changing along with it with a stress to effectively not replicating what's going on in the Western world not allowing you know boys and men to become feminized and and I tweeted this out last night and I said whoever wins this war wins all wars this is this is you know the foundation upon which society and civilization is built And I want your thoughts on this. | ||
| As we enter a whole new round, you've got Doug Ducey over in Arizona vetoing critical race theory bills right now. | ||
| Twenty-two bills. | ||
| Anti-critical race theory bills right now. | ||
| Colby, I want to get your perspective on this. | ||
| Is this the battle we must win in order to win all future battles? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, I think it's a big battle to win. | |
| The labels that people are trying to put out there, there's not labels. | ||
| They're just trying to divide America right now. | ||
| They're trying to tell people how they should act, what they should do, but that's not freedom. | ||
| That's not America. | ||
| That's not what this country was founded upon. | ||
| You know, I think we need to keep fighting back. | ||
| And, you know, we need to stand up for what's right and what we believe in. | ||
| And we can't be afraid. | ||
| You know, I know the fake news tries to put all this fear porn out there and make people afraid by manipulating them. | ||
| But, you know, we need to stand up for what we believe in and fight back and hold the line. | ||
| What is your prescription for young men at this point? | ||
| Because government's not going to step in. | ||
| It's clear that even Republican governors, many of them, are not going to step in and aid this. | ||
| So what is the prescription for young men and the prescription for their parents to winning this war? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, I think you need to follow your own path, blaze your own path. | |
| Who cares what other people think you should do? | ||
| You should do what's right. | ||
| Take good supplements, eat good food. | ||
| Don't let the government try to tell you what's healthy and what's not. | ||
| Come on, look at the people that are supposed scientists that are telling you how you should live and what you should put in your body. | ||
| This Karen at the grocery store who I went to yesterday with three masks on, and the girl looks like she's obese, 400 pounds, and she's trying to tell me, oh, you're making me sick. | ||
| You're not putting a mask on, blah, blah, blah. | ||
| What are you talking about, man? | ||
| Obesity, diabetes, heart disease, these are real common diseases here in America that kill people. | ||
| Not COVID. | ||
| COVID's a complete joke and a sham, and we know it was politicized to get Trump out of office. | ||
| Colby, how do people follow you and tell us what you're working on and how do people get to your social media? | ||
| You're one of the leaders of this movement. | ||
| You're just not a sports figure. | ||
| You're just not a cultural figure. | ||
| You've actually become, in a broad sense, a political figure because, as we say here all the time, like Churchill said, courage is the most important of all the virtues because it's upon courage that all the other virtues rest. | ||
| So tell us how to get to your social media, give the audience ideas of what you're working on and how can they follow you? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I appreciate those words, Steve. | |
| You're a true leader and role model to me and someone that, you know, you inspire me every single day in my life, so God bless you. | ||
| And if the people out there want to follow me, you know, and follow my journey, my social media handle is You know, I'm working on a world title fight right now. | ||
| I'm training really hard every single day to get back in there in the UFC and fight for a world title and go bring this title back to Republicans and bring it back to the MAGA movement. | ||
| You know, I know there's a lot of pissed off Republicans right now. | ||
| You know, we were cheated out of an election, you know, and we got this fake scandemic going on. | ||
| So, you know, these people want blood and I want to bring blood to them and I want to bring a world title back to the MAGA movement and just have this platform so I can voice it. | ||
| For Republicans and the MAGA movement because no one wants to stand up for what's right anymore. | ||
| They just want to stand up for what aligns their pockets the best. | ||
| And I'm not about that. | ||
| I don't sell my soul to the devil. | ||
| I won't sell my soul just for money. | ||
| That's just not who I am and the way I was raised. | ||
| So, you know, I'm working on some big things, getting this world title and then, you know, putting my voice out in the world like you do today to inspire people and stand up for what's right. | ||
| Colby, you're an American hero and a patriot. | ||
| Thank you so much for joining us in the War Room. | ||
|
unidentified
|
God bless you, Steve. | |
| Thanks for having me. | ||
| Colby covering it. | ||
| That's a man, I tell you, this is a young man with a great future in sports and also later to lead this country. | ||
| He's one of the leaders in this country. | ||
| I tell you, it's so easy. | ||
| You don't understand the pressure from the agents, the managers, the sponsors, the pressure these guys are under to kowtow, right? | ||
| To wokeness and the courage of him to stand up and say, hey, look, now he's not going to kowtow to it. | ||
| He calls it out, right? | ||
| He's one of the few people in the world that calls it out. | ||
| Raheem Kassam. | ||
| I know it's sad we have to do this, but we obviously have to make clear that he was speaking metaphorically in terms of bringing the blood. | ||
| What I think is when he talks about a UFC champion, he was talking about that. | ||
| He's talking about he's going to go in the ring. | ||
| Listen, people get very squeamish on Capitol Hill. | ||
| I get it. | ||
| They like their salads for lunch. | ||
| The snowflakes. | ||
| But no, he's a man's man. | ||
| He's saying, hey, I'm going to go get the world championship. | ||
| I'm bringing it back for the MAGA movement. | ||
| And in UFC, and look, UFC is an acquired taste, I realize, for a lot of people, but it's raw, hand-to-hand combat, right? | ||
| There's nothing fake in it, right? | ||
| It's not like they're wrestling. | ||
| It's not like it's other stuff. | ||
| We actually do it in the war room after the show. | ||
| And I'm normally on the losing end of that. | ||
| There's tons of news breaking. | ||
| I want to make sure everybody's up to speed on what's going on. | ||
| There's going to be some blockbuster news coming out of Arizona tomorrow. | ||
| This movement is starting to metastasize around the nation. | ||
| Here's why. | ||
| Even establishment Republicans understand right now that there is immense incompetence slash malfeasance that went on on November 3rd, and they can't hide from it anymore. | ||
| And more importantly, to save their own political hides, they understand that 20% of MAGA is just not going to show up until you show them not new election laws. | ||
| And look, I love what's going on in Texas and other places, although I don't think they're tough enough. | ||
| That until you get to the bottom of 3 November, until you get to the bottom of it everywhere, that's democracy. | ||
| The bid and the ask here is between all votes and all certifiable, legal, chain of custody votes from American citizens. | ||
| Those all have to be counted, right? | ||
| Every American citizen's vote has to be counted. | ||
| That's legal, certifiable, right, chain of custody. | ||
| And other votes don't. | ||
| And I think they're finding out in the full forensic audit, even before the canvas, and this is critical, even before the canvas, I think there's enough inspiration coming out of Arizona, the great patriots out there. | ||
| By the way, there is, I think, a misnomer or misquote in one of these articles. | ||
| They're looking for volunteers out in Arizona. | ||
| Don't think they're not. | ||
| They said they had a thousand that they're processing and they're not looking for any more. | ||
| I don't think that's the case at all. | ||
| We're halfway through, but listen, those patriots out there, the volunteers, this is a grind. | ||
| As the heat comes up in Arizona, it's going to only be tougher. | ||
| I don't personally believe we'll get there by the end of June. | ||
| My point is that it takes as long as it takes. | ||
| But Rahim, I think you're seeing a rejuvenation of spirit here. | ||
| People are in the fight, the fighting spirit. | ||
| You saw this article about NBC over the weekend. | ||
| It really was about this audience. | ||
| This audience is fired up and people that need, politicians that want access, know they need to come here to tie into the human agency. | ||
| There was a name conspicuous in its absence from that article. | ||
| My wingman? | ||
| That would be Raheem Kassam. | ||
| And by the way, they went back and changed it. | ||
| You know what they added in? | ||
| I noticed you were sulking. | ||
| Oh yeah, you know what they added in? | ||
| What? | ||
| They said, Peter Navarro, an occasional co-host just like Raheem Kassam, Oh yeah, oh yeah. | ||
| But this is a thing. | ||
| They don't want to put the name Raheem Kassam in an article about Steve Bannon because otherwise all the white supremacy and all of that just goes away. | ||
| Total frauds. | ||
| Listen, I've got an interesting bit of information here real quick. | ||
| We did a reader poll on the National Pulse over the past month of who the audience would like as the 2024 candidate. | ||
| The survey was 31,000 people big, okay? | ||
| That is not a small sample size. | ||
| 67% opted for President Trump, 17% opted for Governor DeSantis, but the real interesting... we knew that that was happening, right? | ||
| That's dog bites, Matt. | ||
| That's low on Trump. | ||
| The real interesting number is that of Vice President Mike Pence. | ||
| Can you guess a percentage number of the audience? | ||
| Ought, point, ought? | ||
| That would be zero. | ||
| Zero? | ||
| Zero people. | ||
| You've got to put that up. | ||
| 31,000 individuals. | ||
| He gets zero percent of the vote. | ||
| Unbelievable. | ||
| By the way, I shouldn't say unbelievable. | ||
| It's actually quite believable, given the sophisticated audience. | ||
| Is that the podcast or just coming to the site? | ||
| That's coming to the site. | ||
| 31,000. | ||
| Amazing. | ||
| Although, you know, I don't like the horse. | ||
| Interesting number in there. | ||
| I actually think that's low for Trump. | ||
| That means 33% were other? | ||
| Effectively. | ||
| That's two-thirds, one-third. | ||
| I would think it'd be 80%. | ||
| But that's just hate. | ||
| Just a rumor. | ||
| This is very popular. | ||
| DeSantis, by the way, DeSantis is a good man. | ||
| Here's why. | ||
| DeSantis is action, action, action, action. | ||
| You may not want to go have a beer with him, but it doesn't matter in this day and age. | ||
| Short commercial break. | ||

| Now I want to go to, we had a great show on Saturday. | ||
| I think we set records for a number of podcasts and audience that American Generals Talk Part 2 of this great group of American Generals have come together to warn the Republic of the danger we're in. | ||
| General Welch was one of the keys on there. | ||
| General Welch, you brought up, you were talking about unrestricted warfare of the Chinese Communist Party against the American people and the world. | ||
| And I know we're talking about one of the things that got of interest of how this is being financed by taxpayer dollars on the bonds we pay. | ||
| We had Cortez to start the show about the economics. | ||
| Walk us through the unrestricted warfare and how America, in this kind of Greek tragedy, The American taxpayer and the American deplorables actually financing the rise of the Chinese military against us. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, and we did talk about those four elements of power, you know, the diplomatic, the information, military and economic, and how China has advanced rapidly in all of those areas. | |
| And the way they've been able to do it is through the kind of money they're getting from the United States. | ||
| They hold 1.2 trillion dollars in U.S. | ||
| debt. | ||
| That pays about 2.2 percent. That would be $264 billion a year in interest payments. | ||
| And the China military budget, according to reliable sources, about $240 billion. | ||
| It might be slightly more, but they're $240 billion, which means we're paying more in interest to China than they're spending on their military. | ||
| They get away with it. | ||
| Hang on, hang on. I just want to make sure because this is never talked about anywhere. | ||
| The interest payment on the debt, we're going to have to sell them more bonds under the Biden program. | ||
| The interest payment that U.S. taxpayers – I'll pay in principal back. | ||
| Just the interest payment alone of $262 billion is greater than. | ||
| The entire military budget for the Chinese Communist Party of 240 billion, which they're building a worldwide capacity, particularly on the maritime and the Navy, to challenge us as a naval power, particularly in the South China Sea. | ||
| Is that correct? | ||
| That we pay them more cash, we essentially underwrite their military? | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's what the numbers show. | |
| But that's just part of the story. | ||
| The other concerning element is that, even more troubling, Is the massive investment by investment portfolios from here in the United States that are heavily invested in Chinese countries that are indeed controlled by the CCP. | ||
| Many, many, many trillions of dollars in income is coming to China. | ||
| And those industries are allowing the investment without holding China to account for their From a national security perspective, no accountability for their serious human rights violations and no accountability for their theft of tech, our technologies. | ||
| And that's even more troubling in my mind. | ||
| It's an enormous amount of money that is flowing from the United States to China to support their continued advancement in so many areas. | ||
| And you talk about the South China Sea. | ||
| Listen, they have a big interest in The shipping rights throughout the South China Sea. | ||
| There's 250 small islands and reefs down there and China's rolling in and taking control of lots of those to try to create a sphere of influence in that South China Sea area. | ||
| Now, they want to protect their ability to move. | ||
| I think 80% of their energy imports and 40% of their total trade goes through that area. | ||
| However, we as the United States have a tremendous interest On behalf of the world and on behalf of our own country, in the freedom of navigation, and that's what we're all about. | ||
| We want the freedom of navigation, not the control of the navigable routes, but the freedom of navigation because 80% of all trade volume flows through the South China Sea. | ||
| 70% of all trade value flows through that area. So the world has a tremendous interest, the free world, a tremendous interest in maintaining the freedom of navigation. And therefore, the United States needs to have a very aggressive naval presence in that area to assure that the Chinese and their attitude towards control, don't try to limit the ability of the free world to transit that area. | ||
| In the South China Sea, you see the kinetic part, the traditional military part of China that we're underwriting, and they're building up to a world-class military. | ||
| But you've got the information warfare slash cyber warfare and you've got the economic, the other two legs of the stool when they talk about unrestricted warfare. | ||
| What is it going to take, General, because you're a strategist, what do you think it's going to take in this country for us to start to understand that our capital markets our economic policy is all part of national security. | ||
| It seems a huge resistance for Wall Street and global corporations want to just say, no, no, no, no, no. | ||
| We can, you know, you see from the trade deal, which all the positives President Trump did, one of the aspects was to allow Wall Street to get into finance, basically personal investments and personal credit cards and all that in China. | ||
| So now Wall Street thinks that's going to be their next big place to make money. | ||
| When are we going to wake up and what do you think needs to be done to make sure that Wall Street, capital markets, our economics is all part of our national security strategy, that it's all indistinctly linked, like we're finding out now our health policy had to be around bioweapons. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's a... | |
| It's such an enormous market potential that I don't think anything changes until and if the Chinese impose some type of restriction on our ability to conduct business, as they did with fellows like Jack Ma. | ||
| You know, you make too much money in China and they're going to come in and take it away. | ||
| I think when Americans have made huge investments in China, if those companies are somehow undermined because they weren't working within the interests of the CCP, folks will wake up rather quickly. | ||
| But until then, I think it's the responsibility of | ||
| Our military to do the best we can to keep a freedom of navigation open throughout that area and keep a check on the continued expansion of Chinese influence throughout the region and within our diplomatic course, certainly throughout Central Asia, which is often called the Middle East, Africa and other areas where China is making enormous strides to gain influence in those areas as well. | ||
| We've got to be aggressive in maintaining there as well. | ||
| But for the private industry, it's going to take pain. | ||
| They're going to have to feel the pain that China will put on someone who's not acting in accordance with their desires. | ||
| And we'll see when that happens, just how quickly things will turn around in terms of investment. | ||
| General Welch, I know you're one of the flag officers that signed this letter to bring forward to the American people the crisis you think we're in. | ||
| We've got about two minutes left. | ||
| Can you explain to our audience that maybe didn't hear the Saturday Show, what do you think the crisis right now is for the American military vis-a-vis what this administration is trying to do? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm greatly concerned. | |
| It's not just the administration. | ||
| I think there's a general effort throughout the United States and our media and other outlets to totally undermine the discipline, the morale, the ability to operate for our United States military. | ||
| And, you know, not only the military, but all elements of Uh, protection for the American people. | ||
| I mean, defund the police. | ||
| Um, these, uh, social programs that they're trying to roll into the military that, that really have no militaries there to, to train, to fight and win. | ||
| And, uh, it's not a social experiment. | ||
| It shouldn't be a social experiment. | ||
| And, uh, I'd love to see him back off from some of those elements. | ||
| General Welch, how do people get access to you? | ||
| Do you have social media? | ||
| Is there a website? | ||
| How do people... I know we got the flag officers, it was for America, we're putting up dot com, but how do people get access to you? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, I'm a private citizen now, but you know, I have my Facebook account, and it's Bill Welch. | |
| You can find me there, and I have a website, but it's not active right now. | ||
| I'll bring it up, but I'm more interested in Being in the private citizen today, but this issue that came about that Joe put forward to us to sign this letter and express our concern is something I just couldn't sit by and not be part of. | ||
| And because the concerns are so enormous and so real that are facing our country, The lack of the will of the American people to stand for what we've always stood for, the concepts of freedom and the battle for freedom here in the United States and everywhere in the world. | ||
| And we seem to be forgetting that. | ||
| And we're turning against ourselves. | ||
| And it's foolishness. | ||
| We're a great country. | ||
| We're great people. | ||
| And we should be working more closely together on our common interests to stand up against those in the world Who have interests other than freedom. | ||
| Their interests there are control. | ||
| And I am against control. | ||
| I am for freedom. | ||
| As I think all Americans are. | ||
| General Welch, thank you very much. | ||
| Once again, what's the Facebook page people can get to you? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I think if you go to Facebook and look up Bill Welch, you'll see my picture there. | |
| I think I'm carrying a gun in one of the pictures. | ||
| God bless America and God bless the Second Amendment. | ||
| Which, by the way, is our final line of defense. | ||
| Nobody's ever going to come in and take our country away from us. | ||
| I can promise you that. | ||
| Amen, brother. | ||
| General Welch, a great hero. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| We're going to have generals every day in here talking about this flag officers for America. | ||
| It's quite important. | ||
| Also, the STARS situation that's with Colonel Lohmeyer helping on this radicalization of our military academies. | ||
| Let's go to, I want to bring in quickly, and we'll keep them over the next thing, is Jack Posobiec. | ||
| Posobiec's got a new book out about Antifa, but I also want to talk about the publisher. | ||
| Jack, glad to hear it. | ||
| It's Kalamo, and Kalamo published Rich Higgins' great book, The Memo, 20 Years Inside the Deep State Fighting for America First, Rich Higgins. | ||
| Rich is hit. | ||
| The Kalamo guys are fantastic. | ||
| It's a great publishing house. | ||
| It's got Posobiec's book out now. | ||
| Rich Higgins has hit a It's hit more than a speed bump. | ||
| He's got a real medical problem I want to put up. | ||
| They've got a GoFundMe page. | ||
| Rich Higgins, I've got to tell you, he was the hero inside the Trump White House. | ||
| He put the memo that had all the guys that were working against President Trump at the National Security Council and other places. | ||
| Right? | ||
| Higgins is an American hero. | ||
| I want to make sure we get up that GoFundMe page. | ||
| He's got a major medical problem. | ||
| He needs assistance. | ||
| People have got to go to this. | ||
| Check it out if you feel like it. | ||
| Make sure that you make a donation. | ||
| But Higgins, put out by the same publisher, That is Jack Posobiec. | ||
| Jack, tell us about it. | ||
| We've got about a minute here. | ||
| We're going to hold you over. | ||
| Tell us, why did you decide to write this book on Antifa, given everything else you've got going on? | ||
| Well, Steve, here we are on June 1st, 2021. | ||
| We're at the one-year anniversary of when President Trump went out in front of the historic St. | ||
| John's Church just last year. | ||
| When it was burned the night before by Antifa militants at the steps of the White House. | ||
| This information has been completely memory hold. | ||
| That video was everywhere, now it's nowhere. | ||
| The entire summer of 2020 has been completely forgotten about. | ||
| It's not talking about. | ||
| So what I've done is put together an entire timeline of that and an entire timeline of the actual conversations that were held in the Oval Office between President Trump and FBI Director Wray about Antifa, all the times that President Trump asked him to go after them, the fact that he had O'Brien say it's time to go after them, and every single time that Ray either balked at it or said, oh, we'll get to it, shrugged his shoulders and did nothing. | ||
| Meanwhile, he turns around and look what he does to the people of January 6th. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Okay, hang over a second. | ||
| Take a short commercial break. | ||
| We're going to come back with Posovic in the War Room in just a second. | ||

| The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide. | ||
| War Room. | ||
| Pandemic. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| We'll be able to get more into it at 5 o'clock tonight, but big news coming out of Arizona. | ||
| A lot of news coming out that the 3 November movement for full forensic audits across the board is starting to metastasize. | ||
| We'll have more information about that at 5 o'clock. | ||
| Also at 2 p.m. | ||
| tomorrow, Brian Kolfage, the hero, American hero, that was in back of We Built the Wall, that built the Great Wall on the Mexican border. | ||
| He's got a court date tomorrow at 2 p.m. | ||
| We'll have more details about that. | ||
| We want a big crowd out there to support him. | ||
| It's completely unacceptable. | ||
| It's going to be in Pensacola, Florida. | ||
| This guy is an American hero. | ||
| An American hero. | ||
| Gave three limbs. | ||
| Barely lived. | ||
| And I gotta tell you, it's the best part of the wall that's ever been built. | ||
| In El Paso, Texas. | ||
| And down right on the water of the Rio Grande River. | ||
| This guy is an American hero. | ||
| And a patriot! | ||
| Right? | ||
| Tomorrow he's going to have a court date on some other charge they came up with. | ||
| But we're going to make sure the patriot is out there. | ||
| They're going to try to humiliate him. | ||
| He's not going to be humiliated. | ||
| This is going to be in Pensacola, Florida. | ||
| There will be more information about it later. | ||
| I want to bring back in Jack Pasilla. | ||
| We have Jack back up. | ||
| So Jack, you got like five minutes here. | ||
| Go on a run about why this is tied to the CCP, why Antifa is a cultural Marxist organization, why are they dangerous, and why did Wray and Barr not shut all this stuff down a year ago? | ||
| Well, Steve, here's the interesting thing, and we opened the entire book with this, and I thank you for mentioning Rich Higgins there. | ||
| Rich was a huge help to me in pulling together the research. | ||
| I've compiled this over the past two years, which even goes through my past infiltrations of Antifa, my interactions with them, their organization as far back as 2016, 2015, going into the stuff that I did out in Chaz, really the full story that we've never been able to tell before. | ||
| And this wouldn't have happened without Rich Higgins. | ||
| So for everybody out there, I know I'm supposed to be pushing book sales today, but Rich Higgins is just a great guy and anybody who can do some help for him and his family that need it right now, I really encourage people to do that. | ||
| You know, getting into the book, when it comes to Chris Wray, he fundamentally did not understand what Antifa was. | ||
| He went to the Oval Office, and he would sit there with the President, and he would sit there- Hold it! | ||
| Stop! | ||
| Full stop! | ||
| Full stop! | ||
| He's ahead of the FBI! | ||
| He should have been fired on the spot! | ||
| What do you mean he doesn't know what Antifa is? | ||
| He's got every access of law enforcement- So Trump would tell him, he'd say, look at the clips, he would say, I look at Twitter every morning, and I see what's going on, I see that I've got, um, you know, I've got The head wolf from DHS coming and asking for Bortak and all the other agencies to come and give support up to Portland where night after night, 52 nights in a row, it happened over the summer of 2020, asking for more agents, saying we need more personnel because of the attacks on the courthouse there. | ||
| But Wray would not go after them as anything other than, he said, well, it's just an ideology. | ||
| It's just something a group of people that are messing around. | ||
| Meanwhile, Steve, I've got the actual emails, the internal memos from Homeland Security specifically talking about Portland over this same time period where they are saying in these memos that we know that you're not targets of opportunity. | ||
| This violence is planned. | ||
| There is an evolving threat. | ||
| There is a core cadre that is learning. | ||
| They are using advanced tactics against people there. | ||
| We have to start looking at it as what they call it violent Anarchist, Antifa-inspired attacks. | ||
| What happened, which we now know, is that Barr said that he threatened to resign if Chris Wray was fired. | ||
| Full stop. | ||
| And why didn't the president accept his resignation? | ||
| What's the problem with that? | ||
| Who's around the president telling him that it's a good thing for those guys to stick around? | ||
| The president then is waiting for Barr. | ||
| At the same time, he knows he's got to get someone In that he can eventually, and keep in mind that Barr does eventually resign, he'd get Rosen in there. | ||
| So, at the time, Trump was worried, how can I get someone through the Senate? | ||
| What can I do here? | ||
| What you're seeing is a full-scale assault from the bureaucracy, starting with when it came to Antifa, that culminates up, we see those same balking in the New York Post, Miranda Devine covered this yesterday. | ||
| They balked when he asked them to go after Antifa, the same way that they balked, and I cover this in the book, when he asked for the 10,000 National Guard troops on January 6th. | ||
| The President was giving orders, he was asking his bureaucracy to do things, and they refused him again and again. | ||
| It's like a scene out of Yes Minister with Sir Humphrey Appleby. | ||
| Oh, I'm so sorry, we can't do that, Minister. | ||
| We just can't do that. | ||
| What you see again and again is the President asking for these directives to be followed, and the bureaucrats, and the people who live in Washington, D.C., day in, day out, Essentially work together with the cornucopia of corruption, as I call it, of these left-wing, whether it be media, whether it be university cells or left-wing funding organizations, to allow these things to continue to evolve and eventually metastasize across our republic. | ||
| Okay, this is the most informed book that's come out about Antifa. | ||
| By far the most informed book, because I've read them all. | ||
| I want to make sure the title is Antifa, What Stories from the Black Block. | ||
| Tell people what that, what Black Block means. | ||
| Why is it important? | ||
| So the Black Block is a phenomenon that came about starting in the 1970s, 1980s in Germany. | ||
| This is something where they would have squatters, essentially anarchist squatters, who didn't want to leave their homes and so they would dress in black whenever they would come to be evicted. | ||
| That tactic then spread through actually the punk rock scene into the U.S. | ||
| in the 1990s, and we see it come again and again into the United States and bubble up through the Battle of Seattle, which was very interesting because if you look at the Battle of Seattle World Trade Organization, what was going on then, the left was protesting and getting violent against globalism and the ascension of China and the CCP into the World Trade Organization. | ||
| We then cut to another chapter talking about the roots of cultural revolutions. What is that? That is the origin story of the current form of the CCP, where they stand against traditional culture. They stand against history. They stand against any type of yearning back towards what civilization was built on. They only stand for progress, for marching forward, smashing over human rights, smashing over | ||
| tribes, smashing over Uyghurs, smashing over Christians, smashing over Falun Gong and every organization within China that, as they call it, is against the revolution. | ||
| We even get into the Guangxi Massacre, right? | ||
| This took place in Guangxi, China, where people of the Red Guard movement, these youth that were stirred up by Chairman Mao, because again, this goes back to the 60s, Chairman Mao was on the ropes because His rule was threatened because of the disastrous famine, the genocide of the Great Leap Forward. | ||
| What did he do then to get back in charge? | ||
| He releases the passions of the Chinese youth through the Red Guards and the CCP. | ||
| We've got to bounce. | ||
| By the way, 1.30 Eastern Time, major announcement coming out of Arizona. | ||
| This movement, the 3 November movement, is now on the march throughout the nation. | ||
| Rachel Maddow, Chris Hayes, embrace that. | ||
