It's 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.
anthony fauci
Because if you don't, then the worst happens.

War Room.
Pandemic.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
steve bannon
Welcome back.
It is Thursday, the 29th of July, Year of Our Lord 2021.
You're live.
You're in The War Room.
Over 70 million downloads podcast.
We're live everywhere.
I want to thank our partners, and particularly we're doing Japanese and Mandarin now on GNewsGTV.
Boy, Steve Cortez just sent me an unbelievable clip that we're going to try to get up about the head of the U.S.
Armed Forces.
An embarrassing, embarrassing photograph of him.
It's just insanity about these masks and insanity about the vaccines.
Okay, we're gonna get to all that.
I'm gonna get to Mark Fincham in a second.
We're gonna go to Arizona.
We got Jim Hoff coming in about the Justice Department.
We're gonna go back to the border.
We got a lot to get through.
Talk about infrastructure.
You're going to get it all.
Take a deep breath.
Get another cup of coffee.
Raheem Kassam.
Raheem, walk us through.
We got, you know, four or five minutes.
Take us through as methodically as we can.
The implosion of Joe Biden's administration, and we're seeing it before our eyes, and as we told you, we're data-based, evidence-based.
In this math, we told you from the very beginning, on the afternoon of January 20th, you drive these numbers down because you expose what they're really doing, and when it gets into the 40s and it gets in the high 30s, it's over.
And today, Kyrsten Sinema stood up and said, Not voting for the $3.5 trillion human capital or human infrastructure giveaway.
Not doing it.
So therefore, dead in the water.
Because Joe Biden has no political capital, and he's bleeding it out every second of every day.
And this audience is hammering him in every different aspect of it.
Raheem Kassam.
raheem kassam
Yeah, I want to go back to some of those figures we were talking about here, because this isn't conjecture.
It's not the opinion of the War Room.
It's not the opinion of me or Steve.
This is in the numbers, and it's in the numbers of the pollsters that the establishment tells us are the reliable pollsters out there.
So let's take a trip back through those numbers.
We just learned in the last hour that amongst independents, he faces a 52%.
Joe Biden faces a 52%.
Disapproval with just a 38% approval rating of his work.
He has a 51% unfavorability amongst independents.
But this is what really intrigued me about this as well.
They asked corollary questions About how comfortable people were with Joe Biden's ability to handle international crises.
Only 38% of people said that they were comfortable that Joe Biden was able to handle international crises.
They also asked if people believe that he is sincere, authentic, if he means what he says.
Most people said that they don't think he means what he says.
They just think he says things that he thinks they want to hear.
They also said that they don't think he's able to unite the country, and as I said at the very beginning of all of this, they also said that they are pessimistic about the future under Joe Biden.
Now Steve, here's the big crescendo of all of this.
Only 61% of people in the YouGov Economist poll Oh my god.
Oh my god.
Biden legitimately won the election.
That's an incredibly...
steve bannon
Oh my God.
raheem kassam
...all things considered.
steve bannon
Oh my God.
unidentified
That's...
steve bannon
When you...
See, this number rolls through.
That means, that means, that means, what, 39% think he's illegitimate, right?
raheem kassam
39% on the dot say that he was not fairly elected as President of the United States.
It's an extraordinary number when you consider that this is an economist YouGov poll.
They typically reach people that they want to reach.
They typically wait their polls in the way political establishment wants their polls weighted.
And even they are saying that it's coming to it's coming close to half and half in this country now.
steve bannon
Isn't it, by the way, isn't the weighting here plus 14 for Democrats?
I read it, but I want to make sure I got it.
It's weighted towards Democrats, correct?
Of course.
It's obviously a weighted poll.
This is The Economist, best magazine in the world.
It is the official voice, the official tip sheet for the party of Davos.
And trust me, they're in panic mode now.
You know why?
You know why that's 39% in a weighted poll?
Illegitimate.
And that number rolls through everything else.
That's why he's upside down with independents now.
This is why you've got buyer's remorse.
And it's only going to get worse.
We haven't even started the fun yet.
We haven't started.
We haven't started the fun yet.
Okay.
Raheem, I know you're traveling for... Yeah, go ahead, sir.
raheem kassam
Just real quick.
We've done a lot of data.
I want to just give you a little anecdote here.
You know, I was at the Jack table last night here in Las Vegas.
You know, just learning the game.
I don't really play that much.
But I was talking to this couple next to me, and they were Cuban-Americans, and they were adamant that Joe Biden doesn't care about the freedom of, you know, Cuban people.
He doesn't care about the freedom of the American people.
And they were adamant that he was not fairly elected.
And, you know, I just thought to myself, you know, you walk around, I walk around a lot of towns, a lot of cities across the United States, and I have yet to meet anybody, anybody, because I'll just, I'll talk to everyone.
I've yet to meet anybody.
Who will forcefully explain to me that Joe Biden won and that Joe Biden won with a historical number of votes.
You don't get those people.
You don't get anybody out there arguing those things.
But you do get plenty of people out there, whether it's at the blackjack tables or at the pool sides or at the bars and the restaurants all over this country, who have told me they simply don't believe it.
So in addition to all of the data and all of that, I can tell you anecdotally, there's no support for this guy out there.
steve bannon
Raheem, I know you're traveling for us.
You're in Arizona in the next couple of days.
Are you doing the podcast?
How do people get to the podcast?
And National Pulse is on fire.
You've got to make that part of your steady media diet.
What are you doing in your next podcast?
raheem kassam
Probably in the next day or so.
We've got a lot of stories that I'll be putting up in the next day as well.
Well, today I'll be putting up a story.
I've got a couple of radio interviews I'm doing today as well on this piece of analysis that I did about the January 6th Committee and the total farce that that was.
But I got into the detail, not just my opinion on it.
I got into the detail, historical precedent and all of that.
I urge people to check it out.
It's thenationalpulse.com.
And if you like our work, you can support us at fundrealnews.com.
steve bannon
He's going to need some funding because only Raheem Kassam would go out to Vegas to learn how to play blackjack, okay?
When they get the sheep shears.
Did you hear my piece with the Ape Army?
Wall Street's a rigged casino, right?
A rigged casino where the house always wins.
Note to self, Raheem, you're great on the stats and the polls.
Check out the house odds, okay?
Raheem Kassam.
raheem kassam
One thing Vegas didn't reckon with is that I can drink more of the free gin and tonics that they bring around to the tables than I will lose at the tables.
steve bannon
Unbelievable.
And Evenings Entertainment.
Raheem Ghassan, thank you very much brother.
By the way, a report, my phone's blown up, Kara Swisher, the top person in tech, has got a, I guess an interview with Scott Galloway and they're just saying how great Getter is.
We're going to try to pull that and make sure you get it.
By the way, if you don't want to get cancelled, and they just cancelled last night, or the other day, Twitter cancelled all of the audit Twitter accounts from the states, Arizona being the most important, but a lot of people copied that, you know, Michigan and other places, Twitter wiped them all out.
Took them all out because they were talking about things they shouldn't talk about, which is progress in Arizona.
Now, let's talk about these numbers and tied back to Washington, D.C.
The Biden apparatus understands that they're very quickly going to Fort Apache.
OK, so they're circling the wagons.
One of the ways they're circling the wagons, they are getting very focused.
On shutting down the full forensic audit.
So the guys in the Telegram chatroom, understand.
The Justice Department is coming for you.
And now it's getting less and less subtle.
unidentified
Right?
steve bannon
They've already sent letters threatening.
Now they've got an interview up on Reuters.
How they're saying, tread lightly on these audits.
When they say tread lightly, they're not talking about civil charges.
They're going to want to bring criminal charges against patriots.
Just like they do up here on this 1-6.
They want to bring criminal charges.
If you have the audacity.
To question the Big Steel.
I want to bring in Mark Fincham, running for Secretary of State.
He's been all over the country supporting this whole movement of getting Trump Republican as Secretary of State.
He's done an amazing job.
Particularly, we wouldn't be in the place today with this audit if it hadn't been for the fight that Mark Fincham put out in the House of Representatives out there, House of Delegates.
He's a delegate from Oro Valley in southern Arizona, south of Tucson, or near Tucson.
Mark, walk us through.
First up, before we get to what's happening in Arizona, I've got to talk to you about this DOJ thing.
We're going to have Jim Hoft in here later to talk about it.
Is DOJ, is this threat, and it ain't so subtle, to Arizona?
Is this going to back off patriots in the great state of Arizona, sir, on getting the full forensic audit completed and people held accountable for what happened on 3 November?
mark finchem
Yes, Steve.
Thanks for having me on.
This is not going to get anybody to back off for anything.
First of all, the DOJ doesn't care about charging people.
They just want to put people in custody.
Think about the people in D.C.
that have been in solitary confinement for months.
They're not going to charge them.
They just want to hold them in custody to act as a threat against the people Who want to make sure that their election was fraud-free.
And I got news for Merrick Garland.
There's this little thing called the Constitution.
You might want to pull it out and read it.
In fact, I'd even be happy to send you a copy.
Article 1, Section 4.
Let me read it to you, Merrick.
The times, places, and manner of holding elections for senators and representatives.
Article 2, Section 1, Clause 2.
It is the legislature that has responsibility for Nominating and naming the electors for president.
So I would advise Merrick Garland and his team of thugs that now occupy the Department of Justice tread very lightly.
Our Attorney General, I spoke with their representative this morning.
I'm not going to put him on the hook for anything, but you're going to walk into a very surprising reception if you try to do anything in this state that interferes with legislative authority for handling our elections.
Hard stop.
steve bannon
So I can take it that the patriots out there and elected officials like yourself, Wendy Rogers, the great president of the Senate, Karen Fann, Sonny Borelli, others, and even, I assume, Brnovich, who's not been with us, but I think is getting old time religion because he's facing, you know, he wants to be a U.S.
Senator.
People are out there saying, don't mess with Arizona.
We'll take care of our own business.
Is that what I'm hearing?
mark finchem
That's exactly what you're hearing, Steve.
And, you know, there's a lot of people talking about grand jury.
Here's the problem with Grand Jury, as much as I would love to see it go into the Grand Jury, that is, since this show seems to be about gambling, that's a huge gamble.
Because the minute it goes into a Grand Jury, there is no more discussion about it.
It goes into a secrecy skiff.
And we don't know what the outcome of that could be.
Now, there's a number of things that we are following up on.
Part of it will end up being a canvas.
Some of it is going to be new information.
I'm getting information.
To this day, I am still getting more information from people who saw something but didn't know what to make of it until the last few days.
That is the power of what you and the team at War Roamers doing.
Because you're getting the message out, people are beginning to question, hey, wait a minute.
You know, what I saw, that actually might be relevant.
I need to get that to somebody.
Now, of course, we wish we would have had it seven months ago.
But the fact is that it's coming out.
And the DOJ does not want people to stand up.
They want people to sit down, shut up, and just let us rule the country.
Oddly enough, you talk about the approval ratings of the squatter-in-chief.
There was a poll done here about a month ago.
It wasn't done by me.
I've got a 60% approval rating in the job that I'm doing.
That is quite a platform to start a Secretary of State run on.
steve bannon
Yeah, that's also got to be inverse of what Biden and the DOJ are doing too.
I want to ask you, we got about a minute here.
I'd like to stay over Jim Hoff.
We're backed up, but we got to get this.
We saw these letters going back and forth and more subpoenas are talking about they want more information.
What's the latest from your perspective?
Understanding you're not on the inside, but you're very close to what's happening on when we can start to see some results and some firing missives going back to Maricopa County about what they have not done yet.
mark finchem
Yeah, so the secondary subpoenas are a reiteration of, we want the routers and we want the Splunk logs.
You're not going to get away with not providing those.
And if ultimately this ends up being a grand jury thing that gets referred by the report that comes out for the audit, alright, so be it.
At some point that's going to happen.
The other part of the subpoena is documentation.
It kind of goes along with our effort right now.
You see that there's no inconsistencies, no discrepancies, no fraud.
Okay, the burden of proof is now shifted off of the Senate and on to Maricopa County.
You're going to have to start proving some of the claims that you've made.
So for example, the 72,000, 74,000 ballots that are mail-in ballots with no record of being mailed out, but a record of being received.
Well, they were used for another purpose.
Okay?
unidentified
You're going to have to start... Mark, hang on.
steve bannon
This is too important.
We're running up against a break.
Hang on.
Mark Fincham joins us.
Jim Ha from Gateway Pundit.
We're going back to the border.
We're talking about vaccines all next in The War Room.
unidentified
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
Welcome back to the War Room.
I gotta laugh.
The Atlantic Magazine, the great Anne Applebaum just came out with her very subtle piece.
It's a cover story, I think, on Mike Lindell, the MyPillow, the armor-piercing shell.
And Denver, I think you put it up, just came out with the piece.
The headline is, The MyPillow Guy Really Could Destroy Democracy.
The subheading.
In the time I spent with Mike Lindell, I came to learn that he is affable, Devout, philanthropic, and a clear threat to the nation.
The Atlantic, which is the magazine of the elites in this country.
So, Mike Lindell.
By the way, if you don't think they're coming from Mike Lindell, they're coming, and they're coming hard.
unidentified
Okay?
steve bannon
You want to support him?
Go to MyPillow.com, promo code WARWORM.
We got the towels on sale today, $109 normally.
$39.99, but it's got sales all over the place.
But you've got to type in the promo code, War Room.
Support Mike Lindell.
Because and Applebomb.
I just want to read the sub.
MyPillowGuy really could destroy democracy.
In the time I spent with Mike Lindell, this is Ann Applebaum, the writer, I came to learn that he is affable, devout, philanthropic, and a clear threat to the nation.
And this doubles what Chris Wray and all their... they've targeted Mike Lindell.
They think Mike Lindell is a problem.
And you've heard Mike Lindell on here.
You've seen Mike Lindell's work.
You've seen the biography of former, you know, a former crack, a crack cocaine addict, right?
A crack cocaine addict turned to a CEO.
And this doesn't even include the, the patriotism of now he's got in a political waking.
This is his, really his life as a CEO in a great company.
Remember, it's a company that 40% of their revenue evaporates overnight because the, the big box store says, Mike, you got to dial this back.
You can't keep going on this election fraud.
You got to stop it.
If you don't stop it, we're going to pull you.
But we'll put you back up.
He says, hey, if you guys pull me, I'm never coming back.
And they go, you don't believe that.
And he said, if you pull me, I'm never coming back.
They pull in 40% of the gross revenue of the company, gone overnight, virtually.
Done layoff a person.
That's Mike Lindell.
And the company's building back.
You see people in all walks of life, that's courage.
The ability to take a hit like that and say, hey, you know what?
And he told him, I ain't never coming back.
If you pull it, because of what I'm doing and my support of getting to the bottom of 3 November, if you do that, if you do that, I am never coming back.
And they go, oh, we don't believe you.
You're a business guy.
Business guys are amoral.
What they're moral about is profits, right?
You're amoral.
You'll come back.
You'll forget about it.
I'm not coming back.
If you pull it, they pulled it.
And he's built my pillow back without laying off any people.
That's an extraordinary.
That's a test of character.
That's a test of courage.
And trust me, the Atlantic Magazine is like Rachel Madden MSMC.
That's the high... Those are the high priest.
I think it's in there.
She wrote some great books about the gulags and that she knows what communism is.
I mean, she's seen communism up front.
In fact, I think they went that day to have lunch at a Uyghurs restaurant.
She knows what communism is.
But hey, she ain't a Trump fan, and she's not a War Room fan, and she ain't a Bannon fan, and she particularly is not a Mike Lindell fan.
A threat, a real threat to the nation.
Okay, I want to get back, we're burning daylight here, but You've been at the tip of the spear.
When do you think, you've already told us Patriot's not going to back up.
We're going to get Hoft in here in a second.
What do you think the timing is in your best, and I know it's a little bit of speculation, but you're close to the situation.
When do you think we're going to start seeing some hard numbers where they're getting back in Maricopa County and saying, hey, now you've got to come forward and now you've got to really represent what you've got.
When do you think we start to see that?
mark finchem
Well, Steve, I think, first of all, it's going to be the responsiveness of Maricopa County to the documentation that supports their claim about the 70,000 plus ballots.
steve bannon
OK, that's that's going to be OK.
That's going to be in the 22nd century because it's not slow walking.
They're just going to sit there and go, we're not slow walking.
We're saying no.
In fact, give me the middle finger.
This is what we think of Mark Fincham.
This is what you think of Karen Phan.
This is what we think of Mark Branovich.
We've got Merrick Garland in back of us.
We've got the administration in back of us.
We've got the media in back of us.
You're a bunch of wingnuts.
You've got some crazy group, cyber ninjas, which Rachel Maddow is going to beat down.
So, I got that.
If you're waiting upon their response, their response is going to be in the 22nd century.
Respond to that.
unidentified
Okay.
mark finchem
Well, if they choose not to respond and to not comply with the subpoena, The Senate will run with the report that it has, and then it will really be on their onus to have the burden of proof to prove that the Senate is wrong.
At some point, they're going to have to do that.
So, you know, the ballots are going back to, actually they're going to Maricopa County to the Treasurer's Office.
steve bannon
When does the Senate, understand the ballots are not going back to the Supervisors, they're going to go someplace where they're locked under seal.
When does the Senate, as you see it now, what's the trip wire?
They say, hey, if you're going to do this, if you're going to hunker down, And we got to get more subpoenas and more court and more grand jury.
When do you think the Senate of Arizona says, we've had a belly full of this, we're going to decertify these.
How about this?
Suck on this.
We'll never get to the bottom of it, but we do know that we don't have enough information to actually say that electors should have been certified.
So we're just going to decertify.
When do you think that date is going to happen?
Because trust me, ladies and gentlemen, write this down on the 29th of July.
That is where we're heading.
Don't think they're going to cough up any of this information.
They ain't never going to give you the routers.
I don't care if you start hauling them in, they're not going to give you the routers, because the routers are going to expose the scams, so they're not going to do it.
So somebody's going to have to step up at some point in time, and Bronovich can do everything.
Somebody's going to step up at some point in time and say, hey, you know what?
If you're going to play hardball like this, we don't have the information.
We've got to go back, look at the certification, and we've got to decertify this.
So when's that going to happen?
mark finchem
Well, I can't give you a date.
What I can say, though, is the logical endpoint of the report from the Senate, We'll likely contain three things.
One is incompetence.
One is faithful competence to a flawed process.
And the third is criminality of some kind.
Once that report is done, I think it's logical to assume that it will be referred to the Arizona Attorney General for them to determine whether or not there are civil or criminal charges that have to be brought.
At that point, They'll have the opportunity to lay down the smackdown, as you say, and seize that equipment under right of law, under responsibility of law.
Do I think that's going to happen within the next 30 days?
steve bannon
Yeah.
mark finchem
Likely.
Likely.
steve bannon
Watch, and I'm just throwing out, just a random thought.
A random thought for this morning.
Because we started this with you on the Dutch Bar.
I just randomly think Merrick Garland may come in and have something to say about that.
If Bronowich moves.
And this is going to be a fight.
You're going to get in the courts.
I'm saying, people, gird yourself for battle.
Because this is not going to, this is going to be a tough one.
It's going to take a grind.
And people have to understand, I've got to stop the whining on, it should have been done yesterday.
I got what it should have been done.
But we're dealing in the real world.
Remember, I'm turning on Twitter now because I said, hang on, all hell's going to break loose.
What I was talking about was Pence.
Call the play, run the play.
Pence was going to send it back to Arizona, send it back to Georgia, send it back to Pennsylvania, and let the Senate at that time, on the 6th of January, start to deal.
That was all hell's going to break loose because Democrats are going to go crazy.
That didn't happen because Mike Pence blinked.
Mike Pence is a coward and he blinked.
unidentified
Okay?
mark finchem
That's right.
steve bannon
And now we're in the situation we're in, but it ain't gonna get any easier.
And Merrick Garland, these things don't happen randomly.
There's no conspiracy, but there are no coincidences.
The thing saying, tread lightly, Mark Fincham.
Tread lightly, Karen Phan.
Tread lightly, Mark Branovich.
Tread lightly, out there in Arizona, Patriots.
As you're going door-to-door into the canvas, tread lightly.
Because you think Fincham and Fan and these guys got criminal charges and refer criminal charges?
We got bigger criminal charges.
We got federal criminal charges.
And we're coming in and we're going to come in hot.
Because we got to protect.
We see Biden's now 52-48 among independents.
Right?
On favorability.
He's upside down already.
This thing's dropping like a stone, so we're gonna cauterize the wound.
And that wound, the bleeding, pus-filled wound, is the election process in Maricopa County.
Okay?
And they're coming hard.
And don't think they're not coming hard.
They're coming hard.
Mark Fincham, how do people get to you on social media?
mark finchem
Well, probably the best way is go to votefincham.com.
And by the way, if you click on store, you can get your own Prove It t-shirt.
We're asking people to get one, wear one, take a picture of it and send it to your legislators.
No matter what state you're in, this is a, as you say, a gaping wound that has pus coming out of it in every single state, whether they've been able to see the fraud or not.
You can find me on Gab at AZ Honeybadger.
You can find me out on Gitter at I think it's at Real Mark Fincham.
Real Mark Fincham on Facebook, Twitter, all of that.
So don't fall for the co-opted sites that have used my name for other purposes.
But I really thank you for the opportunity, Steve.
And we're not going to blink.
Mark Brnovich knows at this point that if the DOJ comes in, he has the authority behind the state of Arizona.
In order to act.
And I think that I would encourage him to hold firm.
steve bannon
Brother Fincham, thank you very much.
Appreciate it.
I want to bring in now the great Jim Hoff of the Hoff Brothers.
Running Gateway Pundit.
Amazing.
Got about a minute in this segment.
We're going to hold you over.
Hoft, you had a great piece right away.
You guys get all the hot stories and you know, you and Andrew, since you guys were at the beginning together, you know exactly what the buried lead is.
Tell me about how outrageous is this story about DOJ and Reuters, sir?
unidentified
Yes, Steve.
Excellent show today.
You know, what's amazing about this is if you open up the actual script document, the actual document that the DOJ sent out yesterday for this release, Well, if you read the first statement in this document by Merrick Garland, it says that this was the most secure election in U.S.
history, right?
So that's this opening statement.
And therefore, they don't want anyone to look at this.
Isn't that ironic?
This is a nonsense that we're being fed every day.
If they were sure of the election, It would allow us to look at the results.
The other thing about this document that's very telling is they talk a lot about the canvassing.
They're not going to talk about the numbers.
They're not going to talk about the forensics.
They're not going to talk about the ballots themselves.
They're talking about the canvassers who are harassing individuals.
And so we know what that means.
That's something they can, you know... Hang on, Jim.
steve bannon
Jim, hang on for one second.
Hang over a second.
We're taking a short break.
We're going to come back with Jim Hoffa, the Gateway Pundit.
Remember, we've said for months, it's the canvas not the count.
This is why Jim's right.
They're implying the criminal charges against the canvassers.
They're playing Smash Mouth.
Back in the War Room in a moment.
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
Okay, I wonder, we're back in the war room, we get to Jim Hoff, we're going to go to the border, we got Victor Avila, we got Ben Burkham, all of it, but I gotta, this Atlantic story is so important about Mike Lindell.
It's the headline, it's by Ann Applebaum, who's a renowned reporter and author of many important books, particularly about communism.
The headline of the story is, My Pillow Guy Really Could Destroy Democracy.
You've got to read this piece.
We're going to get it up into the into the live chat so people read it.
But I want to I want to give you the ending of the story after she says he's a direct threat to destroy the nation.
This is I'm quoting from the article.
When we walked outside, I thought I might say something dramatic, something cutting, something like you do realize you're destroying our country.
But I didn't.
He is our country after all.
Or one face of our country.
Hyper optimistic and overconfident.
Ignorant of history and fond of myths.
Firm in the belief that we alone are an exceptional nation and we alone have access to exceptional truths.
Safe in his absolute certainty, he got into his black SUV and drove away.
He is our country, after all.
That's Ann Applebaum about the great armor-piercing shell that is Mike Lundell.
I think it'd be very appropriate now for people to go to MyPillow.com, promo code War Room.
This is what Lindell's up against.
You don't think, you don't think, think Chris Ray's things random when they're saying all these guys are saying, tweeting out now that Lindell's the threat to the nation?
Mike Lindell, a former crack addict, now CEO, saves himself by commitment to God and giving his life over to Jesus Christ.
Right?
That, that is the threat to our nation.
And at the end, she shows you.
The reason I read that last paragraph, it shows you the intellectual gap between the elites in our country and the salt of the earth, which is the country, okay?
The reason they hate Mike Lindell is the reason they hate Trump.
Mike Lindell is the salt of the earth, right?
By the way, who said salt of the earth?
I think it's Matthew 5.13.
It's the Sermon on the Mount.
Know who said it?
Know who came up with the concept?
Came up with the phrase?
A guy named Jesus Christ.
Looking at the, looking at the deplorables.
Said, you're the salt of the earth.
Were those the elites in Jerusalem?
Were they elites of all the great, the cities of Israel at that time?
Were they elites?
No, they were not.
If you read in Luke the Sermon on the Plain and the Sermon on the Mount in Matthew, which are kind of the two of the same things, before he had a great healing, these were the cripple, the lame.
And he called it the salt of the earth.
That's where Mike Lindell is.
Mike Lindell is the salt of the earth.
The deplorables are the salt of the earth.
Do you want to be run?
I'll tell you what.
I'll take the first hundred buyers of this book.
On any day, at my pillow.
The first hundred buyers of Mike Lindell's book, and I'll take versus the first hundred subscribers to Atlantic Magazine.
And you tell me, in running the country, who would run the country better?
There's not even a question.
And I come from a working class family, but I went to Harvard Business School, and I worked at Goldman Sachs, and I was in the Pentagon after sea duty with the Chief of Navy.
I've been in those rooms from the way, all of it, all over the world.
From Shanghai to Paris to London.
With the McKinsey guys, and the top law firms, and the Hollywood guys, all of it.
You give us the choice, a country run by the first hundred people to buy his book, or the first hundred subscribers, or the first hundred clicks to Ann Applebaum's story on Atlantic.
And you ask me, in fact you put it in front of the nation.
Let's have an up or down vote.
Who would you rather be governed by?
Sixty-five to seventy-five percent, two-thirds of people are going to say, I want the guys in the red ball caps.
They have grit, they have humanity.
I'm going to go back to where Christ himself said, that's the salt of the earth.
That's the salt of the earth.
That's the difference.
That's why Lyndell, Greene Atlantic, not me, Ammon Oppenbaum, he's a, he could destroy the nation.
He's a problem to the nation.
And don't think they're not going to be reading that at the FBI.
Don't think they're not going to be reading that up on Capitol Hill.
According to them, Mike Lindell's sown the wind.
And now they think he's going to reap the whirlwind.
That's what they're going to put on him.
It ties back to the Merrick Garland letter.
Merrick Garland letters to Fincham, and to the Patriots on their deck plates doing the count, and to Carol Fan.
Anybody that stands up here, you're marked.
You're marked, and they're coming for you.
They're not shy about this.
It's not a conspiracy.
It's not a conspiracy, but they're no coincidence.
Stop with the conspiracy stuff.
It's all nonsense.
Don't need a conspiracy.
It's up in your face.
It's up in your grill.
Read The Atlantic.
Jim Hoft.
You nailed it on the canvassing.
about this letter.
You guys have got it up.
Gateway Pundits are on fire.
Give us one minute of your summary of what they should pick out in this letter from Merrick Garland.
Where are the buried leads?
unidentified
Two points, Steve.
The first one is that they of course dropped the Civil Rights Act of 1960.
So anytime you look at the election results today, they're going to accuse you of being a racist.
So that's a given.
We know that's going to happen.
The second point is, they're looking at the candidates.
They're dictating right now what's going to happen.
They're going to have someone come out and complain that somebody canvassed at their door and how abusive they were.
And then they're going to blame that on Republicans.
We'll never know who the hell it was that was at the door.
This is the trick they're going to play.
If they continue to play these tricks.
Another thing you said about Mike Lindell.
What a hero.
We love Mike.
And it sounds like they're pretty afraid of what he's going to bring out in the coming months.
So, you know, God bless Mike.
They won't stop until he's destroyed.
steve bannon
They won't stop until he's destroyed, trust me, and the company around him.
Christ said the deplorables are the salt of the earth.
What they want to do is like the Romans did to Carthage.
They want to destroy Mike Pillow and salt the earth around it.
How do people get to you, Hoff?
The Brothers Hoff.
You guys are on fire.
Gateway Pundit.
You guys are dominant.
I love it.
24-7 a day.
You go there in the middle of the night.
They got stories from all over.
Andrew, be so proud.
You're the buried Lee King.
You can go to FT anywhere.
You're pulling them out every day.
How do people get to you?
unidentified
So that's thegatewaypundit.com.
We're not on Twitter anymore.
They deleted us after we released information on The TCF Center, the dropping bell, it's there in the middle of the night.
But we are on Facebook, Instagram, Getter, Telegram, and so you can find us in all those places.
steve bannon
Jim, great job.
Tell Joe, great job.
The whole staff over there, good.
unidentified
All right.
steve bannon
Very proud of you guys.
Okay, brother.
Thank you, Steve.
Now we go to Victor.
Victor Villa.
Victor is a former ICE agent.
He's done such amazing reporting and getting information.
Months ago, he told us this was going to happen.
He told us what was happening at the border.
People coming across unchecked, not checked for COVID.
Now you're seeing the results of that throughout the nation, yet the Biden administration continues to exacerbate it.
Victor, get us up to date.
What's the current status down there in your eyes?
unidentified
Steve, the conditions have gotten worse.
I was there six weeks ago.
I just came back from Del Rio, was briefed by the Valverde County Sheriff, the Kenney County Sheriff as well.
right next to Valverde County.
And they tell me it's only gotten worse in the last six weeks.
It is out of control.
What they're seeing now is not just all the COVID positive cases that are being allowed to come into our country through Texas, but they've seen an increase in the human smuggling, the stash houses, the crime, you see the individuals being allowed to come in through the gate.
This is the wall, the old bush wall that we have up.
And, you know, if we're opening the gate to these military age males, I don't understand what the enforcement is.
There is absolutely no enforcement.
These individuals are being processed by border patrol.
Yet are still being taken, released into our country.
If in fact they have a criminal history, they'll send them back to Mexico.
Guess what?
They come right back.
But the ranchers are having an incredible hard time with vandalism at the ranches.
I mean, these illegal aliens are defecating, urinating in their properties, ransacking their properties, stealing their ATVs, using the ranches to get through.
It is out of control down there.
And, you know, there seems to be somewhat of an effort wanted to be done by the governor, our governor of Texas, Governor Abbott, But there's still not enough.
There's supposed to be some, you know, enforcement in trying to arrest some of these individuals for criminal trespass, but it just hasn't really gone off the ground.
Now he has just recently submitted an executive order saying that he's not going to allow private individuals to transport these individuals.
I wish we would have seen this a long time ago, because it's illegal to be transporting illegal aliens through Highways, you would be aiding and abetting a human smuggling venture.
But now we're seeing the crashes where these individuals are evading the police and not wanting to pull over.
And you see rollovers, we see accidents, we see dead bodies on the street.
It is a free for all down there.
And despite having close to 500 state police troopers, not just from Texas, but from I saw him from Ohio, from Florida, Nebraska.
It's still not a controlled situation at all down there.
steve bannon
Victor, are the hard-working Hispanic folks down in the Rio Grande Valley, have they had a bellyful of this now?
This is all being dumped on them.
What is their assessment of this situation?
unidentified
You see, Steve, they just want to do their job.
And you're right on.
Most of these Border Patrol agents are Hispanic.
you know, dissent. And so it has nothing to do with that.
It has to do with the protection of the Constitution, the protection of our sovereignty, the protection of the United States and also the state of Texas. And remember, this is happening in Arizona, happening in California as well. And they're not being allowed to exercise those rights, those abilities of the scope of their employment. The Biden administration has basically dismantled the authority of the Border
Patrol to allow them to do their jobs.
Forget the interior enforcement advice.
That has almost completely been abolished.
There's nothing going on.
You know, we hear just a report a couple of days ago that they're arresting sex offenders.
That's because the Biden administration has gotten a lot of pressure that there's been no interior enforcement of illegal aliens walking around our country.
And these are convicted felons of sex offenses, violent offenses.
And no one is going after them to deport them.
We had the record lowest deportations ever last month.
And the Biden administration has basically undone and dismantled the interior enforcement device.
And it's a ripple effect throughout the country, not just in the border states anymore.
And COVID-19 right now, with Title 42 that is being threatened by the Biden administration to remove Title 42, I can't even imagine the numbers of people wanting to come in if in fact that happens.
steve bannon
Victor, how do people follow you?
How do they get to the book?
How do they get to your website?
How do they follow more of your reporting?
unidentified
Thank you.
I wrote a book about this, Steve, Agent Under Fire, A Murder and Manifesto.
Please go to agentunderfirebook.com.
I have a lot of solutions about the board around there.
You can follow me on Instagram at Victor Avila Jr.
and on Facebook as well.
Thank you so much.
steve bannon
Victor, appreciate it.
Okay, we're going to take a short break.
We're going to go to commercial break.
When we come back, we got Ben Berquam.
Ben Berquam is at the border doing amazing.
He's actually on the Mexican side of the Rio Grande Valley doing live reporting.
Last time we were there, the last time we had him at the top of the show, people just coming right through.
No COVID tests, nothing, just coming right through.
Put him on a bus, sent him into the interior of the United States of America.
And there you had Mexican citizens on nationals on the other side saying, hey, we play by the rules.
And all we're seeing is people just walking into America.
So this is the thing.
The folks, Hispanic descent, American citizens on the Rio Grande Valley, who play by the rules, and the Mexican nationals on the other side play by the rules, they're being mocked and ridiculed every day.
They're being mocked and ridiculed every day.
And the burden's being put on them.
They're the front line.
They're the front line in this.
So don't sit down and hear about the Democrats, don't hear about the aggressors, how they get everybody.
No.
They don't care if their families are crushed, their communities are crushed.
They don't care.
That's why the sheriffs down there are reaching out for help.
Okay, short commercial break.
In the War Room, we're going to return with Ben Burquham and we're going to go live to Mexico next.
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
Okay, we've put the Atlantic article in the live chat.
We're putting it up on the sites.
We're going to get it up on Getter.
Everybody out there has to be a force multiplier.
You've got to get this out everywhere.
I'll tell you why.
Ann Applebaum, she ain't with us, but she's as smart as they come.
And this is not a dismissive article.
This is an article of fear.
They fear Mike Lindell.
And they fear the war room.
And you know why?
It ain't because of Mike Lindell.
It ain't because of Steve Bannon.
It's not because of all the Graham and Ben Berkwam and Real Americans.
No.
No, no, no.
They fear you.
It's the reason they hate Trump.
Trump was, you know, Trump was part of the apparatus and he stepped back and he saw.
Because Trump gave you a voice.
Not in the room, not in the deal.
That's how the jobs went to China.
Not in the room, not in the deal.
Donald Trump got you in the room with a guy that could go medieval on him, okay?
That's why they hate him.
That's why they gotta destroy him.
And they see the same thing in Mike Lindell, and they ain't gonna let it happen again.
Nope, nope, nope, nope, nope.
It's pure fear.
Anne Applebaum, you read that?
The fear comes through on every line, every paragraph.
And they don't fear Lindell.
He's an instrument.
Trump's an instrument.
We're instruments.
They fear you.
They fear the working class people.
By the way, they go after the ape.
The ape army go after him.
He was on the show that day.
You read that article.
Embrace that article.
Think about that article.
Share that article.
Ben Berquam, you've been at this a long time.
Before I get to Phoenix, I want to get a few minutes.
Tell us, you've heard the whole show.
We've had access to the show.
Biden's in meltdown.
Borders open.
They're putting masks on people.
They're going to start vaccinating the kids.
They're doing everything, but they won't not just close this other border.
They're opening up and they're exacerbating an invasion of this country.
And you're down in Mexico to report on it.
What do you see, sir?
unidentified
Yeah, that's it, Steve.
They are inviting this.
They're not ignoring it, they're inviting it.
You can see behind me, that is the port of entry from Del Rio to Acuna.
That's the legal way to get in and out.
Now, what's ironic is they're actually doing vaccines on that bridge.
They're giving people the shot on that bridge.
But right below me, we're standing, there's two illegals just behind.
If I turn the camera over here, you can't see them in the bush, but they're from Honduras.
We were just talking to them.
They're about to cross right here.
So, Where you can actually see, there are actually Border Patrol agents, custom agents up on top of the bridge, and they watch it.
They watch it happen across here.
And the point that you made earlier, Steve, is exactly right.
This is not an accident.
This is not a failure by the administration.
This is a job well done by them.
This is what the left has wanted.
This is the undermining of America, because if America doesn't have a border, it is no longer America.
And that is what this whole thing is about, is about tearing America down from the inside.
That is the tragedy of all of this.
We have representatives in this country who are working actively to undermine this country.
ben bergquam
That is how serious this threat is, and there's a reason why the mainstream fake news media is not covering this, because if the American people knew, they would be outraged.
unidentified
They would be in the streets.
But instead, we are distracted by January 6th and by everything else, all of the other nonsense that the left wants to throw out there, instead of what's really happening, the invasion and the undermining of our country.
steve bannon
The insurrection.
I want to ask you, you've done some of the best reporting out there as a field reporter for Real America's Voice early on.
You saw it.
You did great reporting for Maricopa County.
You see what the Justice Department's doing.
We've got about a minute before you've got to go do another live hit.
Do you believe Ben Burkwheimer, as you've been out there and reported on the patriots that have done this full forensic audit and are grinding through every day, do you think Merrick Garland, with his implications of criminal charges coming if you're part of this canvas or if you continue on to tread lightly, do you think, to the degree you know these folks, they're going to back off?
unidentified
No, I don't.
I believe in the patriots of this country.
I believe in the people that stand up for this country, because they know it's not about them.
It's about the generations that have come before them that have shed blood for this country, and it's about the generations that come after them.
This nation was built on warriors, people that sacrificed their lives, their fortune, and their sacred honor for the blessing that this nation is.
The nation that's across the river from me, the nation that people from around the world flock to get to.
We understand what a blessing that is, and the patriots of America will not back down when it comes to saving this country.
steve bannon
Ben, how do people get to you?
How do they follow you during the day?
unidentified
FrontlineAmerica.com is my website.
FrontlineAmerica.com.
Of course, Real America's Voice News.
And I do want to give a shout out to Auden.
Auden Cabello.
What is the website for yours so people can follow you?
AudenCabello.com?
Yes.
AudenCabello.com.
Common spelling A-U-D-E-N Cabello as in hair dot com and then Frontline America dot com for mine.
Perfect.
steve bannon
We're going to try to get Peter Navarro is going to join us here because of all the issues he's involved in at five o'clock.
We hope to get you and Auden back on at five.
So Ben, thank you very much.
Thanks for great reporting.
Thanks from Real America's Voice getting you down there.
And everybody's prayers are with the family and your wife as she recovers from the accident.
unidentified
Thank you, sir.
steve bannon
Ben Berquam, the great Ben Berquam.
Okay.
And I realize, when people see this, and the Justice Department is sending threatening stuff out, and it's grinding, and people say, hey, I gotta have it done, it's gotta have it done tomorrow.
You're changing the arc of history and the forces aligned against you, whether it's the hedge funds on Wall Street, whether it's the national security state, right, whether it's all the global corporations going to de-platform you and take away your ability to finance anything, de-finance you, whether it is the media that's just going to beat and beat and beat and beat and beat.
The odds are long, but I like our odds.
And the reason I like our odds is not just the cause of righteousness.
I like the people on our side of the football.
And Applebaum got it.
Mike Lindell is the country and that's why he puts fear into the hearts of the elites.
They understand when I say he's an armor-piercing shell, I only say that part kiddingly.
It's like it's like Trump.
Trump was that Trump.
Trump could breach.
That's where Trump was.
That's where they hate Trump.
You could breach the wall, you could breach the wall and then people could go through it.
That's what Trump was, that's why they hate Trump.
The hatred they have for Trump and Lindell is a difference in degree but not in kind.
Because they understand that courage is contagious, and they understand courage is the most important of all the values, of all the virtues, as Churchill said, because it's upon courage that all the other virtues rest.
And that's why they're out to destroy him.
We're going to try to get Mike Lindell back here at 5 o'clock.
Explosive show at 5 o'clock, we promise you, every day.
We'll connect dots.
Not to tell you what to think, but to provide information and a framework for how you can actually think for yourselves and then action, action, action.
Because this show is all about human agency.
And trust me, you are changing the arc of history.
Not us, not Michael Lindell, not Donald Trump, not the great producers.
We're just mere instruments.
It's you, the American people.
Lao-Bai Jing of America that are changing this.
Until 5 o'clock today, you've been in the War Room.
