Paris has now killed more than 100 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. Banham.
steve bannon
Okay, now with over 70 million downloads in the podcast.
Of course, we're live everywhere.
You're in the War Room.
It is Friday, July 30th.
30th of July, Year of the Lord 2021.
We left our broadcast today down in Del Rio City, actually on the border crossing itself.
We want to go back to Real America's Voice.
Chief investigative reporter Ben Berquam.
Ben is down there.
Ben, tell us today, it was shocking what you showed on live television today of just, it looked like people coming into Disneyland or Disney World just queuing up at the border to walk across and get put in buses.
Where are you now and what's happening?
ben bergquam
I'm about a mile and a half up from where we started this morning, Steve.
I'm at the Stripes Gas Station on Veterans Boulevard.
Ironically, we were talking about that name, Veterans Boulevard, and yet this is where they're bringing a lot of the illegals.
They were processed today, so the people that are standing off to my left came across this morning.
They went to the processing center.
They got a sheet of paper, just like the guys we saw yesterday, that said, turn yourself into a border patrol agent within 60 days.
That's it.
Now go wherever you want to in America.
They're waiting here for the Greyhound bus to show up and or the so-called humanitarians.
We found out yesterday the same NGOs that Governor Abbott made the executive order to try to block from smuggling around the state are now coming here, picking them up supposedly voluntarily and taking them to hotels.
The question I have for Governor Abbott too is, is that the bus that's picking these people up, is that breaking the executive order?
And if so, are they going to be making any arrests against Greyhound?
And then also the NGOs that now are coming here to pick them up.
This is just part of the undermining of this country that we see because they're not just This is a small group.
We're also sending them directly to Laughlin Air Force Base.
We've confirmed that, that they're going to Laughlin Air Force Base and they're being flown out of Laughlin Air Force Base using our tax dollars, using our military to then advance human smuggling around our country.
That is still going on today.
steve bannon
Whereas Governor Abbott's got a lot of big talk about, I'm sending the National Guard down, I'm doing this, I'm doing that, I'm going to arrest them for trespassing.
Did you see any Texas, were any Texas Rangers there, any Department of Public Safety, have you seen any Texas officials in a place called Del Rio, Texas stopping this human onslaught of, it looks like what we're hearing is many COVID infected people with the Delta variant coming into the country?
ben bergquam
I've seen a lot of Texas troopers here.
Every single hotel is full.
If you drive by, I've seen more trooper SUVs in this town than I've seen anywhere else in the country.
But I haven't seen a single one of them stop a single person coming across the border.
And no, they're doing nothing to stop COVID from coming into our country.
If anything, what we're doing is bringing more COVID in.
steve bannon
So is this just more talk?
I mean Abbott's a great talker.
Where's the action?
You've got the optics of, you know, this is what they always do, you've got the optics of security, you've got the optics of border security, but nothing's happening.
Have you had a chance to talk to any of the Texas officials down there?
Why are people not being arrested?
ben bergquam
I haven't had a chance to talk to the officials and I don't have an answer to that question.
Until I see action, it seems to be more words than anything else.
And that's what locals are coming up to me saying as well.
We had Frank Lopez Jr.
30 years on the Border Patrol.
He came and joined me earlier today, and that's what he said.
He said, you know, words on a piece of paper aren't going to fix it.
We need action on the border.
There are things that Governor Abbott could do to put pressure on Mexico, to put pain on Mexico, like President Trump did with tariffs.
Obviously, Governor Abbott can't do tariffs, but he could be stopping every tractor-trailer that comes across the border and inspecting them, slowing down traffic.
There's a lot that he could be doing that would force Mexico to help this problem that he's not doing.
That's what locals are telling me.
As of yet, I haven't seen anything other than what the executive order said.
steve bannon
Ben, in the next segment, we're going to have Boris Epstein, and we're going to talk about the White House, the messaging, and actually the facts.
In Washington, D.C.
now, it's a complete mess about the mask, about the vaccines, about the Delta variant.
The White House spokesman couldn't really answer a question from Emerald Robinson over at Newsmax.
The great Emerald Robinson asked a couple of pointy questions she couldn't even answer.
It's a complete fiasco.
And I want to make sure the audience understands, when they see what you've been reporting and covering down there in Del Rio City, folks are just coming right across the border.
They're queuing up.
They're being let across.
They're kind of getting their hands shook.
They're handing them a piece of paper to say, hey, eventually come back in 60 days on an honor system and let us know where you are.
They're putting them in a bus.
Then they take them down to where you are.
They get on a Greyhound bus and they go to the inland, you know, the interior of the United States, never to be seen again.
So, is there any monitoring?
Is there any health officials there?
Is there any vaccines being given?
Is there anything that looks like public health?
They're whining about public health all the time and how the problem here is a bunch of Trump supporters and evangelical Christians that don't want to get vaccinated, and health care workers. Remember, 40% of the health care workers in the country don't want to get vaccinated, okay? 40 to 50% of the law enforcement officers don't want to get, you know, first responders don't want to get vaccinated. People who kind of know what they're doing for a profession, they are somehow, they are vaccine hesitant, okay?
But is anything down there the Obama, the Biden administration's sending conflicting signals in Washington DC?
What are they specifically doing at the border on the public health side about this human invasion?
ben bergquam
From what I've seen, nothing.
They're administering vaccines on the bridge for the people that are crossing over legally, but there is absolutely nothing being done with the illegal aliens that are coming across by the thousands now.
Nothing is being done.
And the people that we've interviewed, the gentleman I interviewed last night, said that they weren't doing any COVID testing there.
They weren't offering vaccines at the shelter before they brought them over, at the processing center before they brought them over.
Everything that I've seen, excuse me, I haven't seen a single thing being done by them to prevent this from spreading around the country, and not just COVID.
It's tuberculosis and it's all the other diseases that some of them we've eradicated in America that still exist around the world that is part of the reason why we have an immigration process.
It's the reason why you have to get vaccinated before you go to some parts of Africa and some parts of Asia to leave this country to go to those places.
You have to be vaccinated against things that don't exist in America anymore.
And as far as we can see, none of that is going on here.
steve bannon
Ben, I've got to ask you, I think Del Rio is what, 80, 85 percent Hispanic?
What are the folks down there, it's a blue-collar city, it's a working-class city, good folks down there, a lot of support for President Trump and the Trump populist and economic nationalist policies, border security.
What are the folks there think right now, a hundred days or six, seven months into the Biden administration?
How do they like it so far, particularly as going border security and economics?
ben bergquam
Everyone I've spoken to, but for one, are fed up.
I had one guy start yelling at me, driving by, saying we need to help these people.
Everyone else came up and said, thank you for what you're doing.
We need more of you down here.
It's destroying our community.
They're overrunning our community.
The people down here See it other than the few Marxists that exist here in the so-called humanitarians that are helping aid and abed the cartels in their in their human smuggling efforts.
But the people of Del Rio for the most part and the southern border as a whole are seeing what's happening.
And that's why we saw such a huge shift in voting in the last election.
And I believe we're going to see double that in the next election.
steve bannon
Ben Berquam, how do people follow you?
You're doing amazing reporting.
Real America's Voice is the one channel that's all over this, non-stop, with real reporting of the real facts.
Tell us, how do people follow you?
ben bergquam
Obviously, Real America's Voice, Frontline America is my organization, frontlineamerica.com, and on social media, at Ben Berquam on just about everything.
steve bannon
Ben Berquam, one of the major contributors to the War Room.
Ben, thank you so much.
Great work.
Glad to have you back in the field.
ben bergquam
Thank you, sir.
steve bannon
Okay, Ben talked about human trafficking, the cartels, that's who's running the border, not the United States, not our authorities.
And Abbott can talk a lot, you can send all the DPS and all the Texas Rangers down there, send all the National Guard you want, but they're just going to sit around and have a show of force, or they're just going to sit around and be in optics.
Nothing's going to change, and that's what we have right now.
I want to bring in Jason Cisneros.
He's from CERT, which is Search, Evangelize, Rescue, and Train.
Also a great partner in the podcast with the preacher at the church.
Today is World Day Against Trafficking of Persons.
Tell us what's going on, and how does that play to what's actually happening at the border, Jason?
unidentified
Well, it should be called The World Ignoring Trafficking Day, honestly.
It's a little frustrating, especially watching that piece there from the beginning.
First, I have to tell you, the last show has severely helped the Slave Free Project that you did that show on.
I just wanted to say thank you from all of us on that.
It was really great.
But it really is, the world is ignoring trafficking.
Number one, the word trafficking Is slavery.
They really need to call these things what it is, Steve.
It's slavery.
And we want to get all upset about something 200 years ago that none of us were involved in and couldn't do anything about, but we want to call it trafficking so that it feels better to us, but it doesn't engage anybody.
It's slavery.
Then we want to call it child trafficking.
It's not child trafficking, it's child rape.
That's what's happening.
And what's happening down at the border, you know, I'd love to see your reporter go to some of the hospitals and see them being overrun and where there's reports of people calling the trafficking hotline.
They're not getting any help down there because they know that these children that are coming in and being treated for rape instances and they have to turn them back over to their trafficker because there's no help.
So, you know, this whole thing is very upsetting and it's great that somebody can put a hashtag on their social media.
And a lot of groundswell people, I don't want to say that there's nobody paying attention to this, but there's a lot of everyday people that are now paying attention to it.
They're getting involved.
They're doing things like going to, like our friend Leo Benussi down in Arizona who passed HB 2889, I believe is what it was, which gives life sentences to these traffickers and people that are, you know, doing these things.
So I love that there's a day for it, Steve.
It's a little challenging watching the officials and the people that should be doing more about this sort of ignore it.
So it makes us feel good.
It's another hashtag.
Thank you to everybody out there that's supporting SlateFreeProject.com and the work that's being done out in the world.
I really appreciate it.
But that's what's happening down at the border.
You know, if you just want to go check what's happening in the health realm and these hospitals, It's horrifying.
steve bannon
Jason, I'm just going to ask you, our audience, the power of the show is the audience and how engaged they are.
People were horrified.
Remember, I said this is not really an area of my expertise when I did the show, but I could tell you from the audience response to you and your partner and the Slave Free Project and everybody we had on that day was really overwhelming.
I mean, people are very engaged and they were kind of horrified.
They didn't know a lot about this.
How can this audience, Who really focuses maybe more on politics or the economics of it, you know, national security, you know, things like CRT, critical race theory.
On this issue of slavery, and the issue of child rape, and this whole thing of trafficking, and the cartels really controlling the border and making all this money.
We've got about a minute and a half here.
How can our audience get engaged and help you guys at the front line on this thing?
unidentified
So I'll tell you, I'll give you a couple of ways that you can help.
Number one, go start talking to your elected officials, just like they did in Arizona.
That didn't happen in a vacuum.
That happened because everyday people, just like you and I, normal people started banging the drum and saying, If you were going to do more time for an eight ball of cocaine in your pocket than you are for trafficking a child, there's something wrong with that in the realm of sentencing people.
So that's one place that you can start ringing the bell.
I can tell you for our team, we've identified in this environment, we talked a little bit about it last time, but in this environment where we've got to defund the police, We're working on putting together a big operation right now.
Over a couple dozen children that we know are out there, and that's coming up, and that needs money.
You know, whether it's our organization, TheSlaveFreeProject.com, or if it's somebody else out there that you can support, there's work that's being done and needs to be done in the absence of the support, the financial support for a lot of these police departments.
steve bannon
How do people get to you?
We've got about 30 seconds.
How do people follow you?
How do they track your social media website?
unidentified
So, sir, it's Slave Free Project on the trafficking side and JasonCisneros.com and we'll connect.
steve bannon
Jason Cisneros, I know you volunteer a lot to this movement, so thank you very much.
Real honor to have you on.
Okay, White House is a complete hot mess on a Friday afternoon.
They should be.
They don't know if they're coming or going.
Boris Epstein to explain it 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.
How do you test if that is the Delta variant, if COVID is the Delta variant?
I don't understand the question.
We don't, we don't, we don't test it.
karine jean-pierre
We listen to public health and scientists and they tell us that it's the Delta variant.
I don't even understand.
Why would they explain?
I mean, that's what they are telling us.
I laid out how contagious it was, and I laid out why we needed to act on the Delta variant.
unidentified
The answers we get is because they say so.
karine jean-pierre
Well, they're the experts.
It's not just they.
These are scientists.
These are experts.
I just said—hold on one second.
Hold on one second.
I just said that Dr. Lewinsky said just recently in her 20-year career, she had never seen a variant that was so contagious.
So this is 20 years of her career.
So this is absolutely, absolutely a major, major problem that we are trying to deal with.
That's why we heard from the president yesterday.
That's what we keep talking about.
People need to get vaccinated.
So that is the way that we're trying to move in this administration.
Making sure that we are protecting people here.
Making sure that we're dealing with this pandemic in a way that is effective.
And that's how we're going to move forward.
I'll take another question.
steve bannon
Okay, ma'am.
By the way, the great Emerald Robertson over at Newsmax.
Boris, I'm going to bring you in right here.
Okay.
Evidence-based.
Data-based.
Fact-based.
It's called science, ma'am.
It's just not making some assertion.
You're sitting there, oh well, you know, the CDC woman says it's worse in 20 years.
Oh, okay, that's a fact.
That's evidence.
That's data.
This is a complete sham and a con.
Okay?
So CNN and MSNBC, you know, get up on your high horse tonight.
Let's see the facts.
Let's see the data.
Let's see the evidence.
Not just these assertions.
And that's... We're in the business of signal, not noise.
And I normally don't jump into these press conferences because a lot of it's noise.
But this is fundamental to the misconceptions.
Admiral Robinson's questions were dead spot on.
Dead spot on.
I don't understand the question.
I don't understand the question.
It's just they don't even understand it.
unidentified
I don't understand the question.
steve bannon
Boris.
What's the question?
It's not a messaging problem they have.
And you said it so precisely.
It's not even a political issue they have now with this polling, because the American people are seeing this every day.
And trust me, they're getting air cover from MSC, CNN, New York Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, right?
Getting air cover from that.
Besides the war room and a handful of other places.
Nobody's hammering this, but people can see they don't have a messaging problem.
They don't even have a political problem.
As Boris Epstein told me earlier, he said they have a reality problem.
Boris Epstein.
boris epshteyn
This is an unmitigated… A runaway train disaster for this administration, okay?
And, you know, Corinne Jean-Pierre, you know, she's up there more than Saki now.
Maybe they finally realized that Saki with the circling back just isn't cutting it.
Well, I'm sorry, the replacement isn't cutting it either.
But that's all spin, and that's communications.
Joe Biden yesterday, you know, it wasn't just about how old he seems or decrepit he seems.
It's that he admitted in that questioning, you know, yesterday from Peter Doocy, he admitted that the White House has no idea.
This isn't a White House.
This is an administration that's lost all control.
And you know where it's reflected?
It's not reflected in the Washington Post.
It's outside of Josh Rogan, actually, who does continue to annihilate the Biden administration on their foreign policy.
But it is not, you know, it is not reflective in the Washington Post, not reflective in the New York Times.
It's reflected in the polling that shows Joe Biden down 20 points, net 20 points from January.
And no, not 20%, 20 points.
This guy went from up 24 to now within the margin of error and other polls upside down and in every poll.
Upside down with independents.
Independents disagree and disapprove of Joe Biden more than they approve.
This administration is in free fall.
And while we all, all of us conservatives, MAGA movement, America First, celebrated politically, and we celebrated in terms of their utter failure to explain themselves, As an American, I'm not gonna lie to you, Steve.
I'm nervous.
This is a reality problem, and there's nobody steering the ship.
Nobody.
steve bannon
It's not Biden, it's not Harris, none of the other losers.
Ron Klain, okay, now the other thing is about this polling is we told you from day one and you've put your shoulder to the wheel, this audience, all we've got to do is keep laying out the facts of the case and he's going to start imploding on approval and popularity.
That's called bleeding out political capital.
The single most important data point today about that It's Kyrsten Sinema.
The Senator said, hey, I'm going on vacation.
I'm out of here next week.
Have all the votes you want, right?
I hope you got it covered because I could care less.
I'm gone.
You're not going to spend the 3.5 trillion.
I could care less.
This is how much she fears the White House.
This is how much she fears.
This is how much of an impact she thinks Joe Biden and his administration is going to have in her chances down there in Arizona.
OK, which is now a swing state.
boris epshteyn
No impact whatsoever.
steve bannon
No impact.
Hey baby, I'm out of here.
I've got my tickets booked.
I'm not going to miss the cruise.
boris epshteyn
It's really in your growth, by the way.
unidentified
I bet it's somewhere wonderful.
steve bannon
I don't know, but we'll maybe ask Mitt Romney.
You should check in with Mitt Romney.
Okay, I want to talk about, there's another report, by the way, for the day, the Justice Department Before we go to that, can I say one more thing here?
boris epshteyn
If this administration is to have any chance, any chance, forget they're not going to, 24 is gone, okay?
They should just assume that this is at best, at best, a one-term presidency, okay?
So this is at best a quarter presidency.
If they have any chance of redeeming themselves in the eyes of the American people, For goodness sakes, get some good comms people.
Just get anybody.
I'm begging you, anybody, to come in there and at least pretend to level with the American people.
Not just say, oh, I don't get your question.
Yes, you do get the question.
unidentified
Why doesn't this Biden White House know anything?
steve bannon
Hang on, hang on.
I disagree.
Here's what I think.
I think that what the comms shop's got to do first is they got to show enough respect When you brief the press secretary, it takes hours.
house in the country to get briefed they come up there don't they're they'd like to have almost no facts it's fact free that means they're not taking the hours and hours and hours to get prepped and think they're gonna have to answer tough questions they come up there totally completely unprepared and i think i'm more embarrassing every day yet again i'm more embarrassed when you brief the press secretary it takes hours you gotta start early in the morning and you go all the way until the time of the the time of the briefing and you've got a dive in and you're right they're not diving in its pathetic
Okay, listen, the Justice Department, which has been telling all the full forensic audit crowd that, hey, you're going to be on criminal charges, so tread lightly.
Today, they say, hey, we don't have any problem with sending Trump's tax records up to the House.
That's going to be an issue.
People just have to understand, that's going to be a problem.
Because now you've got these jackals, and that's what they are in the Democratic Party, they're jackals, going to be all over Trump's taxes.
But something else, and you're so close to this, I wanted to do a political, had a story, Washington Post had a story, there's a book coming out or something coming out and there's a deputy attorney general that there's some, in Daily Mail, everybody's going nuts, this is a big Friday afternoon story, President Trump was talking to the Justice Department, to Rosen and his deputy, about the election fraud right after Christmas, was talking to him and saying, oh you guys gotta say it was a bad election and we'll do the rest, my guys will do the rest, right?
But buried in there, and if we can put it up, I want you to respond to this, because I saw it, I said, this is the buried lead right here.
But eight paragraphs down, it said this deputy, quote, he's taken notes, and he told the president.
What is it, Boris?
We've had multiple investigations, hundreds of interviews, and there's nothing there.
unidentified
Well, I got to tell you, that is... Dozens of investigations?
steve bannon
That's a lie.
Okay, you take it, Boris.
What do you think about that?
boris epshteyn
You're totally right.
It's the buried lead.
First of all, the story itself is a total nonsense story.
Oh, the President of the United States is talking to his Attorney General, his Deputy Attorney General.
Okay.
Wake me up when there's something interesting, okay?
That's a snoozer.
Nothing.
This is the buried lead because this is Donahue and Rosen telling the president, the sitting president at the time, they've done dozens of investigations, hundreds of interviews into the voter fraud and major allegations... Turn it over.
steve bannon
Turn it over.
That's a lie.
Let us see it.
Let's see the dozens of investigations.
By the way, where's Politico and the Washington Post?
Give us the receipts.
We are data-based, fact-based, evidence-based.
That's a lie, and you're a liar.
Turn it over.
boris epshteyn
I'm willing to believe them.
They've got the fancy scribble notes.
I'm willing to believe them.
Let's see it.
Let's see the hundreds of interviews.
Let's see the major allegations not being supported.
Let's see the dozens of investigations.
Let's see all the documents.
Let's have it.
And you know what?
If that's the truth, you should want to turn it over.
unidentified
But guess what?
boris epshteyn
That's never going to happen.
steve bannon
Hold it.
First off, we can ask guys in Arizona and Georgia right there, the two hot spots, ask state officials.
Nobody's over there.
Were there investigations going on?
Was the Justice Department doing dozens of interviews?
If you add them all up to hundreds, they had to do a dozen in Arizona and a dozen in Georgia.
I'm just doing some simple math.
Wisconsin it's a lie. It's a lie and this is what they're feeding the president.
Remember they're telling Trump this is a lie this is why Barr you're a liar.
You had liars working with you. We want to see the evidence.
That's the buried lead. That should be the headline of the story. Where are those interviews?
boris epshteyn
Yep.
Let's have the November 6th Commission, the one that's being put together, I think, by Kevin McCarthy.
unidentified
Amen.
boris epshteyn
Let's subpoena it.
Let's subpoena these investigations.
steve bannon
Subpoena the interview.
Let's have it.
Nancy Pelosi should do this.
unidentified
Sure.
steve bannon
She should have won some.
Benny Thompson.
Jamie Raskin.
Hey, Jamie, you're going to subpoena this.
This is what she's going to subpoena.
Let's get this.
Come on.
This is important.
I want to see the dozens of interviews.
Dozens of investigations.
Hundreds of interviews.
boris epshteyn
Hundreds of interviews.
Hundreds.
steve bannon
That means at least 200.
boris epshteyn
Stone cold lie.
This is just like when the FBI showed up at Rudy Giuliani's house at 6 in the morning and refused to take the hard drive from hell from Hunter Biden.
steve bannon
By the way, by the way, a stone-cold lie and he lied to the president of the United States.
This is the information, this is the nest of vipers, the nest of vipers that were around Donald Trump in the final days of the White House.
Costa put that in your book, okay?
This is the nest of vipers that were lying and misleading their commander in chief.
You don't think you ought to be brought up in charges?
Because it's a stone-cold lie.
Okay, we're on short break.
Hang on, Boris.
We've got Jack Passoe with Boris Epstein.
unidentified
We're going to come back to the War Room in a moment.
War Room.
Pandemic.
With Stephen K. Bannon.
The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide.
War Room.
Pandemic.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
steve bannon
You see these stone-cold liars and vipers that are around President Trump and Bill Barr?
And remember, Bill Barr, if he's in any organization, you see him on the board of any organization, get your money back.
Get your money back.
You shouldn't give anything.
Anything associated with Bill Barr should be off-limits to anybody in the Trump movement.
The nest of vipers and liars he had around President Trump, and you see in this thing a guy saying dozens of investigations, hundreds of interviews, there's absolutely not a scintilla of evidence Of voter fraud.
That is a stone-cold lie.
One, you didn't do them.
And two, if you had done even the modicum of investigation, if you had talked to four or five people, you'd have seen what went on.
And we wouldn't have this fiasco today.
And yes, it's your responsibility, brother.
And guess what?
We're back.
We're going to get to the bottom of November 3rd.
We're back in power in 2022.
We're going to have a real investigation.
And you're going to be one of the first guys brought up.
Charges have got to be filed against these people.
These are liars, and these are vipers.
And this is why this republic's in this jam it's in.
And these are Republicans, okay?
These are conservatives.
Brought in by Bill Barr.
His DOJ.
So I don't want to hear about it.
It's all the Democrats.
Hey, it's just as much these establishment figures that are just as compromised, just as corrupt, just as incompetent.
So Boris Hempstein, what do you tell us?
Great find on the very lead today.
Tell us about what's happening in Arizona, Georgia and in Pennsylvania quickly, because we're burning daylight here.
boris epshteyn
Let's start with Pennsylvania.
This is a huge weekend.
The clock strikes midnight tomorrow.
As soon as Philadelphia, Tioga, York counties do not honor the letter sent by Doug Mastriano.
That means that they are in violation of his request and the process on subpoenas will start immediately.
I'm expecting subpoenas within 7 to 10 days of midnight tomorrow.
That's Pennsylvania.
A very close eye on it.
Arizona.
steve bannon
Okay, okay, okay.
unidentified
Hold, hold.
steve bannon
Before you get to Arizona, Attorney General Shapiro there says, hey, show me what you got.
I'm bored already, but let's go on.
He's like, I'm yawning.
He's getting sleepy, okay, with your subpoenas.
But I got it, you got it.
unidentified
You have to go to the next show.
steve bannon
Okay, good.
Go to Arizona.
Let's see how it is working out.
How is it?
boris epshteyn
Speaking of, in Arizona, they are tabulating the results right now.
Yesterday, the ballots went To Maricopa County Treasurer did not go to the Board of Supervisors.
They were never supposed to go to the Board of Supervisors.
Those ballots, the 2.1 million, not exactly 2.1 million as we'll come to learn, they remain under evidentiary order.
They remain protected and expect for the numbers to come out soon.
I continue to hear that there are deep discrepancies in the counts between what was certified and what was turned over for the audit.
That's Arizona.
Day-to-day action in Arizona, lots of coming out there.
We've got some people going out there to make sure everything's done right.
Very, very important.
All eyes on Arizona and in Georgia.
I learned today that the reason there was not more legal action this week is because the plaintiffs in the case to prevent the unsealing of 140,000 ballots did not conduct their service correctly.
So just legalese.
Expect for action in the next week in Georgia.
So Georgia, Pennsylvania, Arizona, all very hot day-to-day.
steve bannon
Okay, what's your social media?

We've got a lot to get to, and we're bringing Jack Posobiec in a second, but first I want to bring in Raymond Abraham.
Great piece up.
I think it's the American thinker about Richard the Lionheart, his greatest victory, the Battle of Jaffa.
Why are we talking about this today, Raymond?
Why does this have any application to the 21st century, sir?
raymond ibrahim
Hey, Steve.
Well, first, it's a, you know, this moment in history, but more importantly, It's really when I get done telling you the story, you're going to learn that Western leaders, Christian leaders, could have so much perseverance and self-sacrifice.
That is so antithetical to what you're seeing today, and in the context of Islam today.
So, to make a long story short, Richard Lionheart, of course, and this account which I'll tell you is how he got that moniker, Lionheart, and you'll see why.
After Jerusalem fell to Saladin in 1187, he went and spearheaded a new crusade, and it was essentially just him.
The French king went with him, but then he eventually bailed.
But he came, and he just completely ravaged the area.
He took Acre, which was held by the Muslims, and he marched all the way down south, and he took Arsuf.
And in all these battles, the Christians and the Crusaders were vastly outnumbered, and they still won.
And it's important to underscore that we have very good primary sources from this time, not just from Christians, but from eyewitness Muslim chroniclers, including Baha al-Din, or Bouhidden as he's known, who actually validate all this, and in fact validate the War prowess of King Richard.
At any rate, so around right now, today in history, what happened was the big battle of Jaffa.
And this is the last battle of the Crusades.
And again, here you'll see the parallels.
Richard was doing fine and he was winning in the battle for Jerusalem.
Not that he attacked it, but during the Crusade, until Philip, the King of France, who actually came with him, as I mentioned, bailed out.
And John, King Richard's brother from the famous, you know, legends of Robin Hood, both of them connived and started trying to take over Richard's lands, both in France and in England, of course.
And that was what put so much pressure on him to actually drop the crusade when he did.
So he was leaving and going back home because of the traitors, his own brother and the fellow king who actually vowed, the French king had vowed with him that we are both crusaders, brothers in arms, And, you know, we'll see it to the end.
So he bailed and went and started trying to take Richard's lands.
At any rate, Richard had no choice but to leave, to just take them.
Otherwise, he's gonna lose his own territories, his own kingdoms.
And at that point, when he was ready to leave in Acre, Saladin came with 20,000 Muslims, a massive horde, and surrounded the port of Jaffa, which was very important, and which Richard had only recently won from the Muslims, just a few months earlier.
And a messenger came to Richard and told him what's happening and immediately and so you this is now you're gonna see the differences between our leaders and then immediately he just Forgot about his plans got on a boat took 2,000 fighters with him and went to try to deliver Java from these 20,000 Muslims
And when he got there, it's interesting reading the story, they came to the port and they're still in their boats and they thought it was all over because all they saw were Muslims ransacking and flames and screams of Allahu Akbar until a priest jumped out of the tower and it turned out he swam, he jumped in the water and swam to Richard and they found out that there was still a remnant holed up in the citadel fighting back.
So at that point Richard actually in the sources just said I'm gonna let us die with our brothers jumped in the water and there was a whole throng of Muslims on the shore throwing missiles at him jumped in the water before anyone else without his full armor with a battle axe and a crossbow
and forced himself on land fighting and defending himself and all his men jumped in and followed him and it created so much hysteria amongst the Muslims because they thought this is unbelievable there must be a bigger armada coming behind these guys they can't be that suicidal that they started panicking and running away and the sources I mean and it's in my book and in my articles but it's very descriptive you know you have basically Richard is now drenched in Muslim blood and he finds Saladin
Just a moment ago I was happy thinking he had taken Jaffa and he starts running towards him on foot and a huge howl comes out from Saladin's entourage.
They unloose arrows on Richard and it still doesn't work and they actually run away and flee.
And because of that battle, that's actually how he became known as Richard the Lionheart.
Now, you know, compare and contrast the story with what we have today.
You know, one can say whatever they want about Richard and the Crusaders in general, their motives and, you know, why they were fighting in the Holy Land and all that, but how many men?
He was a, this is a king and he jeopardized his own country and he left it and made all sacrifices and he could have died numerous times just because of a cause, just because of his faith.
And he did that.
And who, and this is really parallel to what's happening now, who really beat him?
It wasn't Saladin.
It was his ally and his brother.
Trainers.
because it turned out after he left, so after Jaffa, soon thereafter, he got very sick and almost died from plague because he was surrounded by dead bodies.
And when he left Acre at that moment, three months later, Saladin died.
So if his own brother and the king of France had not been doing what they were doing, he might have stayed there longer and it would have been a whole different story because Saladin was the center of the jihad.
unidentified
And with him out of the picture, much could have happened.
steve bannon
Real quickly, what's the name of the new book you got coming up, and how do people get American Thinker?
We're going to put this article in the site, in the live chat, and on the website.
What's the title of your new book?
raymond ibrahim
The new book is titled Defenders of the West, the Christian Heroes Who Stood Against Islam, but it's not even available for pre-order, so I recommend people get my first book, which is the same, and in fact has all these anecdotes, Sword and Scimitar, 14 Centuries of War Between Islam and the West, to prepare them for this book.
steve bannon
Raymond Abraham, thank you very much.
Fantastic.
Pasovic, I've got to go to you.
We've got a couple of minutes here.
We put the photo up of the Bonhomme Richard, one of the great Navy ships.
You're the first guy to really report this, Pasovic.
Our beloved Navy, what in the heck has happened?
NPR's reporting there's a sailor that actually started the fire that took down one of these great Navy ships, and here we don't even have his name.
Tell us what's going on.
jack posobiec
Right, Steve.
There is an absolute, they used to call it the zone of silence, right?
You know, there's a zone of silence around this story.
The Navy will not name who it was that committed this.
Probably the greatest peacetime act of arson, the greatest peacetime disaster in U.S.
Navy history, certainly in the modern era, where we've lost, they're saying now it may cost up to $4 billion to replace this ship, the Bonhomme Richard.
It had been important San Diego.
We don't even know the name of the individual right now.
I've been talking for a long time lately about the loss of naval supremacy in the Pacific.
Now, we're talking about great power decline.
This is a huge problem for us.
If you do not have naval superiority.
You cannot enforce your mandates.
You are destabilized.
You are now caught in a Thucydides trap.
steve bannon
But this is even worse than the report you said about the Navy that came out a month ago, that we can't even fight the ship, we don't have basic navigation.
This is a $4 billion, one of the most modern, most important warships we have in the Pacific Fleet, the 7th Fleet, which patrols the South China Sea, which is the centerpiece of our military against the transnational criminal organization, the Chinese Communist Party.
A single sailor!
Started a fire that the crew couldn't put out.
Now it was in port, only a fraction of the crew was there.
The crew couldn't put out.
Today they've announced it and they haven't given us the name of the sailor.
And they didn't tell us how this happened.
A four billion dollar warship.
And the mainstream media is crickets on this.
There's something that stinks to high heaven.
This shows you the rot in the Navy.
This politically correct Navy and military.
That's all, you know, politically correct and worried about critical race theory.
But Sobic, what's going on here?
jack posobiec
Look, what happens when you're out at sea and you can't trust your shipmates next to you?
When you're in the Navy from day one in boot camp at Great Lakes up there in Illinois, you were told, trust your shipmates, trust your shipmates, they have your back, they have your back.
How can you go into a fight with the CCP, with the People's Liberation Army Navy, if you don't know who's sitting next to you, if that's the person that's gonna start pulling plugs on your communications equipment, if that's the person who's gonna be starting fires?
Why is our Navy, So focused on D.I.E., diversity, inclusion, training, woke training, CRT.
You got Millie up there talking about white rage.
Meanwhile, it's been a year, by the way.
It's been over a year since a U.S.
Navy sailor burned down and took a ship, a Navy ship, one of our warships, off the line.
steve bannon
A capital ship.
jack posobiec

We don't even have a single piece of information.
steve bannon
Before any budgets approved in the Armed Services Committee are anywhere, we got to hear the name of who did this and what's in back of it.
This is a scandal.

I got Jack Posobiec here.
What I want to do for Denver, if you can put up the picture of Wendy Sherman.
Wendy Sherman is a Deputy, I think, Secretary of State.
She was in China the other day.
They lectured her on you're not gonna stop the rise of the ccp you're not gonna stop the rise of china they gave it like the 20 things the united states has got to get got to get uh with the program okay completely she stood her ground i'll give her she's tough she stood her ground but they were trying to humiliate the united states like you did with tony blinking can we play the short clip the very next day in the same chair the taliban can we play that clip uh for the taliban a delegation of top taliban leaders was given a warm welcome in china this week by top
chinese officials okay what they're trying to do jack basova come in here you're you're great about the optics and the china the m you know the emperor over there she it's all about the optics right What are they sending the signal to Central Asia?
jack posobiec
So, they're sending the signal to Central Asia two things, right?
They're promoting the Taliban, and it's a massive insult to the United States.
To have you sit in the same chair, in the same chamber, right?
That's how much face you're given.
That's how much honor you are given.
So they're putting the United States on the same level.
They're saying, you're Taliban tier now.
We're going to treat you the way we would deal with a group like the Taliban, where they're going to say, hey, we don't want you guys attacking our pipelines.
We don't want you attacking One Belt, One Road while we build this across your country.
Everybody knows the Taliban originated in Pakistan.
That is the major focus of One Belt, One Road in Central Asia will be through Pakistan.
There's no serious border between Afghanistan and Pakistan there.
And so the Pashtun terrorist groups, Haqqani groups, they operate with impunity, right?
So they need the Taliban on their side.
Now they're saying they're giving face to the Taliban and they're demoting.
I'm surprised if the U.S.
delegation even knows that this has been done to them because they've had no response for it.
They're saying you are on the same level as the Taliban.
You're essentially a vassal Uh, infrastructure that we have to deal with.
You're in the way.
Look, you exist because you're the administrators of the populace of the United States.
We want to sell all our products and our big screen TVs and our laptops too.
So that's, you're the administrator.
steve bannon
So sure, we'll have a meeting and that's it.
This is the first time they've really, I mean, they've acted like we're a tributary state for a long time, except for when Trump was in there.
But this is really, they're putting us in the same category as a tributary state, right?
jack posobiec
Know your place.
unidentified
Yes.
steve bannon
I want to break some news.
Tomorrow, by the way, Dr. Robert Malone is going to be in the War Room with Peter Navarro.
I will also be a co-host.
They're going to be together a whole hour of walking through vaccines from the top expert, what's exactly going on.
Malone's going to be there.
If we can put up the debt chart, I want to put this debt chart.
I'm going to be going into a breaking story we're finding out about.
It's about the debt of the United States.
It's about the prime reserve currency, the dollar.
Jack Posobiec knows how important this is.
There's breaking news.
I believe that there is a transaction going on right now between the Chinese Communist Party and the Saudis for Saudi Aramco, which is the worst structured company in the history of taking companies public, the worst public offering.
The Saudis are broke.
They're bleeding out cash.
They have $75 billion every year in dividends just to get this thing public.
Let's see the debt.
The debt is because we print money, right?
That's because we're the prime reserve currency.
We're going to break a story tomorrow morning that the CCP is putting $500 billion into Saudi Aramco In a 20-year output deal to take, basically, it would be 17% or 20% of China's oil needs.
If you combine that with what they get from the Mulas in Persia, I think it almost gets them up to 50% of their oil needs.
A 20-year deal, $500 billion, and wait for it, wait for it, wait for it, they're going to do it, Jack Posobiec and R&B.
They're not going to do it in U.S.
dollars.
This is going to be a 20-year deal, a half a trillion dollars of investment and purchasing of this oil, Done in R&B, and it's done with our great allies in Saudi Arabia.
It is done to break the primacy of the United States dollar, the U.S.
dollar.
You're going to see this take place.
Not just that, the Saudis being so broke and have to pump this oil.
They don't care if the cost of oil goes down to 30 bucks a barrel, which puts Texas out of business.
Jack Posobiec.
jack posobiec
Well, Steve, what you're talking about as well, and I'm sure that most people here in the War Room audience know this, but you're essentially talking about the primacy of the petrodollar, right?
So all oil transactions for the most part in the world are done in U.S.
currency, right?
That means that as long as there is a need or a demand for oil, that will be conducted in U.S.
currency.
That exists because of our longstanding agreements, but primarily are agreements that were stood up at a time when the U.S.
had that type of leverage, that type of power. A huge key component, by the way, when it comes to the oil industry, if you want to combine our last story with this story, is what? Naval supremacy, right?
Understanding that you are guarding these mega-tankers and these super-tankers as they're going through the Gulf, as they're conducting their way through.
China is building their system around us.
steve bannon
You're keeping the Straits of Hormuz open, the North Arabian Sea, the Straits of Malacca, the South China Sea.
This is what you have a neighbor that's a hate.
Go ahead, sir.
jack posobiec
Oh, yeah.
The NICAC tags the Arabian Gulf, etc.
steve bannon
Pacific, we've got to bounce.
How do people follow you?
jack posobiec
If I'm at humanevents.com, get on the Getter.
I'm loving Getter, by the way, really enjoying it.
Ton of engagement there, ton of traffic, and of course, Twitter, Jack Posobiec, J-A-C-K-P-O-S-O-B-I-E-C.
steve bannon
By the way, Jack Pasoak's turned around human events.
It's fantastic.
Another must-go-to spot.
Okay, tomorrow morning the show is going to be explosive.
We got the one and only Dr. Malone's coming in with Dr. Peter Navarro.
You couldn't get more controversial on those two guys.
They're going to be talking about how the vaccines were put together, what the Delta variant is, what's the story of the vaccines, all of it.
We also are going to have...
A Chinese doctor, now in hiding in Vietnam, to talk to us about live organ harvesting.
How the CCP does it, why they do it, and who they do it to.
