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

War Room. | |
| Pandemic. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Okay, we're getting down to the important stuff. | ||
| Russ is going to be back on. | ||
| We've got to stop this spending. | ||
| We have to stop this regime from doing permanent damage to the country, okay? | ||
| On the southern border, in our capital markets, on our global position, particularly against the Chinese Communist Party. | ||
| And we're going to do it. | ||
| And to tell you who's our ally in doing this, the American people. | ||
| The numbers are imploding, okay? | ||
| Captain Bannon, the 45th President of the United States just issued a blistering message to the American people. | ||
| Can you please read it for us? | ||
| And can Denver put it up on the screen? | ||
| This is pretty amazing. | ||
| The 45th President called for the resignation of Joe Biden on Monday. | ||
| Never been done before in American history. | ||
| And people think that Trump's trolling people. | ||
| You could not be farther from the truth. | ||
| And you're going to see this at this speech that he's going to do on Saturday in Alabama supporting Mo Brooks. | ||
| President Trump, how many crises do we have under President Trump? | ||
| Anybody remember? | ||
| How about zero? | ||
| Had a couple of small ones all kicked up by McMasters and all the neocons, right? | ||
| That President Trump tamped down. | ||
| A center of strength, common sense, courage, decency. | ||
| That's where there's no crisis. | ||
| And nobody's going to cross him. | ||
| You think the world is going to cross him? | ||
| You think the Mullahs are going to cross him? | ||
| You think Xi even tried to cross him? | ||
| You think Putin's going to try to cross him? | ||
| You think Erdogan? | ||
| All the bad guys in the world? | ||
| You see how many bad hombres there are? | ||
| Did they try to cross Trump? | ||
| No, they did not. | ||
| The European, the NATO guys, oh, we can't pay too much Germany, we don't want to pay anymore. | ||
|

|
Hey, shut up and pay up. | |
| Okay? | ||
| Shut up and pay up. | ||
| The American people are not paying for all of your defense in the future. | ||
| There's an ally prepared to support you. | ||
| But the American people are not paying for it, and our sons and daughters are not going to be, just their blood is not going to be spilt, which is what happened in Afghanistan. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| The lies and misrepresentations. | ||
| McMaster is out today saying that, you know, Pompeo and Trump screwed this up. | ||
| Sir, you sat in the Situation Room, and I'll go through, let's get on stage, I'll go through your lies and misrepresentations. | ||
| First, your incompetence. | ||
| Number two, your lies and misrepresentations. | ||
| And let's just pull out the briefing papers. | ||
| Let's look at ours, and let's look at yours, and see who's closer to the truth. | ||
| Let's look at Eric Prince, and see who's closer to the truth. | ||
| Let's look at Eric Prince, and see who He said, leaving Americans behind for death is an unforgivable dereliction of duty, which will go down in infamy. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Short and to the point. | ||
| Okay, hang on there. | ||
| I want to bring in Colonel Mastriano again. | ||
| So, Colonel, I'm kind of confused. | ||
| Jay Corman just said, Senator Jay Corman was kind enough to join the show and said, hey, he's got the back of this. | ||
| He's got to do it right. | ||
| You can't have Shapiro, who knows how to play all the games, wire this thing. | ||
| So if you issue a subpoena, he goes to the Democrat-controlled Supreme Court of Pennsylvania and is thwarted. | ||
| And that basically you told him or publicly said you were not interested in doing this anymore, so he's going to pick another guy, a naval officer, to go do this. | ||
| Colonel Mastroianni, is that... I just want to know, because it's kind of getting confusing in Pennsylvania, what happened? | ||
| It's obviously ridiculous. | ||
| Go ahead, Colonel. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| It's obviously ridiculous nonsense. | ||
| Why would I come on your show if I was backing away? | ||
| It just belies reason. | ||
| The fact of the matter is, he's been playing me for the past six weeks here, constantly kicking it down the road. | ||
| He's the one that didn't want to do this entire thing. | ||
| Otherwise, he would have committed to it. | ||
| If he wanted it done right, it would have happened under me. | ||
| Second thing is, I just got word from my staff. | ||
| He's, in essence, fired my Harrisburg staff. | ||
| All I have is my secretary left up there. | ||
| So this is the kind of game they're playing in Harrisburg. | ||
| They've reassigned all my staff in Harrisburg. | ||
| And meanwhile, he's coming online here and saying nonsense and the things he had lacked the courage to tell me, you know, face to face. | ||
| And so the bottom line is, is Pennsylvania, we deserve better. | ||
| And that we have a president pro tem that thought it was OK to cancel my hearing behind my back. | ||
| He thought it was OK to take away my room reservation, thought it was OK to take away my staff. | ||
| I think he's probably next going to strip me of my committee chair and whatever other game he's going to play. | ||
| The United States of America, this is what we're dealing with Pennsylvania. | ||
| That's why we have a problem with our election integrity here. | ||
| Let me ask you, have you guys ever sat down, is there any issue? | ||
| He said, look, the problem is the Mash Runner didn't want to do the hard work. | ||
| He'd rather go in a war room and he'd rather go do speeches and he'd rather be a big shot than do the hard work. | ||
| Hang on, was there any issue that ever came up about the way that your committee had this and was ready to issue the subpoenas that would jeopardize it with a crafty demon like Shapiro? | ||
| Yeah, absolutely not. | ||
| You know, we've been over backwards working with Dakin and staff here. | ||
| I mean, literally hundreds of hours in the plant. | ||
| I have a master's degree in strategic studies and planning, what have you. | ||
| And so we work with them. | ||
| We kept on altering the plant in accordance to the guidance that was given to us by Dakin and staff. | ||
| We constantly answer their questions. | ||
| We have a solid package. | ||
| When he said there's dishonest, I gotta tell you straight up, that's ridiculous. | ||
| If I was backing away, why would I just fade away and ride off at sunset? | ||
| So clearly, I want this done more than anyone else in that building. | ||
| Has he ever, he just committed to, in front of the War Room on live national TV, and for not just the War Room posse, but the American people and the people, most importantly, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, to issue subpoenas. | ||
| Is that the first time you've heard that from him? | ||
| Has he ever told you that? | ||
| Or is that new information? | ||
| That's brand new information. | ||
| Because if you wanted to issue subpoenas, it would have happened on the 6th of August when we had the committee meeting planned. | ||
| And we were about to sunshine it. | ||
| So it's obviously this was forced his hand, but obviously there's a price to pay. | ||
| He stripped me of my office people in Harrisburg, people that were, you know, handpicked and good workers, great Americans, including my chief of staff, who served with me in Desert Storm. | ||
| He was in the Cobra attack helicopter and, you know, took out some enemy tanks that were about to kill me. | ||
| And so he's playing dirty. | ||
| And I would say talk is cheap. | ||
| If you wanted to do this, the subpoenas would have been issued over a month ago. | ||
| And just one last thing. | ||
| The entire time you worked on this, did anybody on his staff or anybody on the legal committees up there or anybody, any of their staff lawyers or wards people, did anybody come to you and say, | ||
| Technically, you've got some problems with these subpoenas, and you haven't done the work, you haven't done the process work to get enough sign-off or to get enough people on board, is anytime people came to you with that, because he basically said, hey, you didn't want to do the heavy lifting to get the subpoenas or get all the information correct, you'd rather go around and be a show horse, which we know, personally, is not you, because you're a hard worker and you've always delivered. | ||
| But was any time they ever come up and say that there was an issue here or say there's a problem, you've got to rectify, you've got to go to these other subcommittees, you've got to work Harrisburg more? | ||
| So in May, and I hope we have a little bit of time here, in May, Donald Trump heard about the dithering in Harrisburg and had drafted up a strong statement against Senator Cormann and Senator Tim Ward. | ||
| And I interceded and said, let me work with these people here. | ||
| I have to work with them. | ||
| I believe we can make headway with them. | ||
| And I had a meeting together with the chair of the state committee as well, Senator Argo, after a session back in May, and the plan was to move forward. | ||
| Foreman said my committee was the only committee that could do it because I bring the most credibility. | ||
| People trusted me, Pennsylvania, to get it done. | ||
| Those are almost his exact words. | ||
| And then a few weeks later, it was kicked the can down the road. | ||
| I'm ready to go, ready to launch and send the letters out. | ||
| And then it's like, well, Doug, let's wait for the budget. | ||
| You know, our only leverage in Pennsylvania. | ||
| Okay, the budget passed. | ||
| And I was all lined up to brief the caucus. | ||
| And he cut my legs off underneath. | ||
| He even had my attorney from Philadelphia waiting. | ||
| And no, we'll do this later. | ||
| Let's wait for the veto of the next election reform bill, which will be, you know, like a week later. | ||
| And then it was let's Doug wait for Arizona's result to come out. | ||
| It was at that point. | ||
| I'm like, we got to move forward. | ||
| The majority of my committee supported this whole process here. | ||
| I wasn't working in a vacuum. | ||
| But the hard part was working with Jake's staff on moving forward. | ||
| And my staff spent hundreds of hours working on this. | ||
| We have a solid package. | ||
| My chief of staff used to do these kind of plans, actually, at the federal government level. | ||
| Making a lot of money doing it, by the way. | ||
| We ran circles around them. | ||
| Any question they asked, we had answers for. | ||
| We were ready to go. | ||
| It's just, it's dishonest what he did. | ||
| And it shows you how guilty he is by stripping, by making up nonsense. | ||
| This is not my best job ever. | ||
| It's not a job I aspire to. | ||
| I'm here because I love my country as I've served it all my life. | ||
| And I'm embarrassed by his actions. | ||
| As I said, he stripped away just about everybody in Harrisburg. | ||
| Lost about four staff members up there. | ||
| Just happened. | ||
| And next he's going to strip away the committee chair. | ||
| So what has he got to hide? | ||
| This is retribution. | ||
| Again, somebody here who's trying to make a difference, and I've been stabbed in the back so many times by him that it was just time to step out and let the world know. | ||
| And so the world does know what kind of man that we're dealing with here, and it's a darn shame. | ||
| It should never have come to this. | ||
| I've been very patient. | ||
| And I was patient when he threatened me early on that he was going to strip me of my committee and fire my staff. | ||
| That was reprehensible. | ||
| That was unprofessional when he went behind my back and canceled the committee vote for the 6th of August. | ||
| That he took away the room that I needed to use for the hearing vote. | ||
| I mean, this shows you the kind of games. | ||
| I've been very patient, and look, I was born at night, but not last night. | ||
| It was enough. | ||
| The people of the nation know what happened. | ||
| This was his plan all along, actually, I think, to move it to a different committee where he could have a better say on the outcome. | ||
| A better say on the outcome? | ||
| In other words, more control of that committee than more control of you? | ||
| I believe so, yes. | ||
| I have a very big committee, by the way, and just about everybody on the committee there, you know, are stand-up people there. | ||
| So, this was a decision that Jacob had forced upon himself. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| I want everybody in this posse to... Senator Corman's already committed to having the backing and getting the subpoenas out forthwith. | ||
| I want everybody now, if you so choose, and look, we think the world of Senator Doug Mastriano. | ||
| He's been a hero of this movement from the beginning. | ||
| The Gettysburg hearing kicked it all off. | ||
| If you want to get to Senator Corman and show your support for Senator Mastriano and his staff, they've worked so hard and diligent in this entire process. | ||
| Colonel, thank you. | ||
| Thank you very much. | ||
| Honored to have you back on here. | ||
| You've always got an open invitation to the War Room. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Okay, so, you know, you're seeing it made in real time, but we've got to get those subpoenas issued. | ||
| And we've got to sort this thing out in Pennsylvania about working with each other, okay? | ||
| We can't have these divisions at each other's throats when the job is to push the ball down the field to get to the bottom of the truth. | ||
| Shapiro and those guys are what's going to block it here. | ||
| They're the opposition. | ||
| Right? | ||
| Because they're going to try to... Look, it's quite simple. | ||
| They don't ever want you to get into Philadelphia and see what happens. | ||
| Just like they didn't want you to get to Atlanta. | ||
| Just like they didn't want you to get to Phoenix. | ||
| If they had the 81 million votes, they'd have you down there and rub your nose in it. | ||
| They don't have them. | ||
| They know they don't have them. | ||
| In Arizona today, you're going to see a preliminary report to show they don't have them. | ||
| That's why Politico, no pro-Trump, This publication has brace for sudden impact. | ||
| Brace for impact on the report that's coming out to Arizona today. | ||
| And they got two pre-bottles from Katie Hobbs, both incompetent and corrupt, and the clown that's a Republican clown. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| Pre-bottles. | ||
| They're so nervous. | ||
| Talk about pre-bottles. | ||
| I want to go quickly. | ||
| We've got a minute. | ||
| I'm asking to hang over. | ||
| Darren, be even very patient. | ||
| The headline, we've got to get up another massive win today. | ||
| Reuters has an exclusive. | ||
| And Darren, you've got a minute. | ||
| I'll let you read what Reuters and everybody is saying. | ||
| What's the screaming headline today about 1-6, sir? | ||
| Well, the screaming headline from Reuters is, Exclusive! | ||
| FBI Finds Scant Evidence the U.S. | ||
| Capitol Attack Was Coordinated. | ||
| And I think it's very important. | ||
| Hold it, hold it, hang on, because we're going to hold you over. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Gosh, Reuters, that's a big scoop. | |
| If you read Revolver, was it 90 days ago? | ||
| I think you got the same information, but in more depth. | ||
| Is that correct, Aaron Beaty? | ||
| That's correct, and I think it's very important to distinguish two dimensions of this article. | ||
| There's one dimension that is clearly yet another profound narrative collapse for the FBI's ridiculous theme that 1-6 was a 9-11 style event, and therefore all Trump supporters or Trump-adjacent people are de facto domestic terrorists. | ||
| It's a series of collapsed narratives beginning from Officer Sicknick was bludgeoned by a fire extinguisher, leading all the way up to here. | ||
| But there's a sinister element to it too that I really want to... Hold on, hold on. | ||
| Hang on to the sinister element. | ||
| This will keep people through the break. | ||
| It's an old radio trick. | ||
| Darren Beattie from Revolver. | ||
| He's crushed the narrative of the Deep State. | ||
| All next in the War Room. | ||

| He's gonna be joining us later. | ||
| We've got so much to get to, and we're going to get to all of it, okay? | ||
| By the way, complete collapse of this regime's narrative. | ||
| Joe Biden, the feckless, hapless old man, is heading, guess where? | ||
| Not in the Situation Room, not up to Camp David in the Situation Room. | ||
| No, they've got to take him home to Delaware. | ||
| You know why? | ||
| Old folks like that, the dementia starting to happen, they like being around familiar surroundings. | ||
| That's why he's going back up there. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| We're in a crisis. | ||
| We're in a global crisis. | ||
| We've got an invasion of the border. | ||
| We've got our balance sheet blowing up. | ||
| We've got the economy stalling. | ||
| You've got nothing but major league, big league problems. | ||
| And of course you've got an implosion in Afghanistan. | ||
| The Chinese Communist Party is looking right there at Taiwan. | ||
| Oh, and by the way, another, the deep state, and I'm not, a guy says deep state because it's in your face state. | ||
| Their narrative is collapsing. | ||
| The media's narrative is collapsing. | ||
| Rachel Maddow is negotiating her deal. | ||
| She wants to go spend more time with her family. | ||
| You know why? | ||
| Revolver News and Darren Beattie. | ||
| Darren, take it from the top again. | ||
| Hit the audience. | ||
| I want to put this shortest thing up. | ||
| This is massive. | ||
| And all the time they've been sitting there and saying you're domestic terrorist and you're terrible. | ||
| Look at those kids, those young men and women in Afghanistan today. | ||
| Six thousand is going to be a lot more. | ||
| To get out. | ||
| And by the way, they've got to get them out there, American citizens. | ||
| But let's be honest, the NGOs are all Ivy League progressives. | ||
| That's fine. | ||
| They're over there doing what they think is right. | ||
| I've got no problem with that. | ||
| But it's the deplorable sons and daughters that are going to pull the bacon out of the fire. | ||
| Look at the videos of the Afghan people tossing their kids and their babies up over the barbed wire to the American troops. | ||
| That's voting wokeism versus American exceptionalism. | ||
| When the world sees it coming to an end, you know what they want to do? | ||
| They want to have their deplorable sons and daughters there. | ||
| You know why? | ||
| Because they know they're decent people. | ||
| Darren Beattie, how did this narrative of the FBI, the national security state, collapse before our eyes, sir, because of revolver.news? | ||
| So I want to walk through this very carefully because there's a number of very important elements to understand about this story. | ||
| So what is the story? | ||
| Reuters and a bunch of other news outlets are covering this. | ||
| The title, as I read earlier, exclusive, FBI finds scant evidence the US Capitol attack was coordinated. | ||
| So they're dispensing now with this idea that it was a premeditated, coordinated event, which is of course what was crucial to advancing their narrative that this was a 9-11 like terrorist attack. | ||
| And therefore all Trump supporters, MAGA affiliated people, were ipso facto domestic terrorists. | ||
| So on one dimension, this is Another profound and profoundly embarrassing narrative collapse. | ||
| Starting with the idea that Officer Sicknick was bludgeoned by a fire extinguisher, which we disproved. | ||
| Then that he was sprayed with bear spray, which we disproved. | ||
| Then they said, oh, we would never infiltrate groups. | ||
| We would never do this. | ||
| Then Revolver News pointed out the Michigan plot, which was infiltrated. | ||
| 12 out of the 18 so-called plotters turned out to be feds. | ||
| Then our reporting on George Tanios was vindicated when a judge said, oh, we're going to let George Tanios out on bond because this is ridiculous they're holding him. | ||
| And now they're saying, oh, this wasn't really coordinated at all like we've been saying. | ||
| So in one sense, total victory, total vindication of our reporting, total embarrassment for the FBI. | ||
| But there's a really crucial thing to understand here. | ||
| There's a sinister element because as many of your audience knows, in fact, much of the country knows, Revolver is most known for advancing the thesis that key militia members at the highest levels were actually wanted. | ||
| Working with the government or for the government these militia organizations that they've imputed are To one six. | ||
| And so what the FBI is doing here, keep in mind all these unnamed sources, this piece would not exist as the way that the FBI attempts to control narratives by leaking out stories like this, so they could try to advance a narrative without being directly responsible for it or accountable to it. | ||
| And what they're trying to do now is very, very sinister. | ||
| What they're trying to do 100% This is about them getting an excuse to justify kneecapping their investigations into militia leadership. | ||
| They're sabotaging their own narrative that, oh, this is a militia thing, oh, Oath Keepers, Proud Boys, and whatnot, by subtly, through leaks in the media, undermining their own narrative that was useful for a long time to frame all of us as terrorists. | ||
| Now they're abandoning that narrative because if they continue to push that narrative, That means they actually have to investigate the highest levels of these militia groups, which as revolver.news has strongly reported, are very likely to be agents themselves, just like in the Michigan case. | ||
| This is a cover-your-ass ploy. | ||
| So before we take a victory lap on this, we need to understand what their actual agenda is. | ||
| They want us to let go of the narrative, look at the top people in these militias. | ||
| Who do they really work for? | ||
| They want to drop that whole thing and cover their ass and walk away because all the damage has really already been done as far as framing us as terrorists is concerned. | ||
| Brilliant. | ||
| And this is, you're saying, hey, this is not an intelligence failure. | ||
| This is a failed intelligence operation. | ||
| I know you're going to get to the bottom of it. | ||
| Darren, how do people, this is, this is huge. | ||
| We're going to be on this nonstop. | ||
| Darren Beattie, the tip of the spear here. | ||
| Darren, amazing job you've done. | ||
| You've broken their back in this, but you're right. | ||
| They don't want to, they don't now want to be forced to cough up who the government agents are and how they infiltrate these groups and how they actually, how they actually did it. | ||
| How do people get to you? | ||
| How do people follow you? | ||
| Go to revolver.news now, we have a huge piece up at the top, and we have some of our best 1-6 pieces right at the top. | ||
| Revolver.news, we have a big piece coming out at 1pm today, and I'm on Twitter, at Darren J. Beattie, D-A-R-R-E-N-J-B-E-A-T-T-I-E. | ||
| Do not let them distract you from the thing that matters, that is, who are these key militia groups at the highest levels working for? | ||
| Don't let them deflect, we're not letting go of this story, not one bit. | ||
| Okay, we're going to try to get you back on after this one o'clock. | ||
| We'll put it in the live chat. | ||
| Thank you very much. | ||
| Amazing, amazing, amazing. | ||
| What a day. | ||
| What a news day. | ||
| Captain Bannon, BBC is reporting the Taliban, the tender mercies of the Taliban, they're going door-to-door now. | ||
| You have 15,000 American hostages. | ||
| Heck, I spent months in the North Arabian Sea and Persian Gulf when they had 52 in Tehran with the mullahs back in the late 70s, early 80s. | ||
| Right? | ||
| They got 15,000 hostages. | ||
| American hostages. | ||
| The New York Post is reporting there's 80,000 folks there either work with us there or from other countries. | ||
|
unidentified
|
80,000. | |
| Captain Bannon, what is the BBC reporting right now? | ||
| search for people who work for NATO forces and the pre and the previous Afghan government a report has warned It said the militants have been going door-to-door to find targets and threaten their family members the hard-line Islamist Islamist group has tried to reassure Afghan since seizing power and a lightning offensive promising There would be no revenge But there are growing fears of a gap between what they say and what they do and then I also want to state that Jake Sullivan on | ||
| Tuesday said that the Taliban have agreed to allow safe passage from Afghanistan for civilians struggling to join a u.s. Directed airlift from the capital However, we have reports showing that that is not in fact what is happening over in Afghanistan. | ||
| Okay, a complete debacle. | ||
| We have a diplomat. | ||
| We have assurance from the Taliban. | ||
| Their words always been great in the past. | ||
| I want to bring in Admiral Hewitt. | ||
| Admiral Hewitt, you've been in the rooms that had to plan this stuff. | ||
| Give us your frank assessment of where this stands right now in Afghanistan, sir. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We have American citizens trapped behind enemy lines at this moment in time, and we have absolutely the ability to go get these people out, and we need to go do it. | |
| That's first and foremost. | ||
| Second, we've emboldened the Russians and the Chinese just in the last two weeks with what's occurred here in Afghanistan, and they're going to take full advantage of the situation on the ground there. | ||
| And then finally, our allies. | ||
| I think the BBC telegraphed a report, and if you watched the party yesterday in the UK, for the first time they've gathered as a group since COVID, unanimous in their condemnation of this decision by President Biden. | ||
| And then I look at Taiwan, and the Chinese announced yesterday they will take Taiwan at the time and place of their choosing. | ||
| These are things that are all occurring tactically and strategically because of our decision to abandon Afghanistan and our people. | ||
| Admiral, you've been in these planning rooms. | ||
| The question American people have, given all the resources we've put in there, we've got about a minute we're gonna ask you to hold over. | ||
| How did this happen? | ||
| The Pentagon's so good at planning. | ||
| How did this happen? | ||
| This is almost as bad as the debacle in Baghdad, you know, when we took Iraq back in the early 2000s. | ||
| But how did this specifically happen, sir? | ||

Everything that we're watching play out right now, whether it's Bagram Air Base, whether it's the American citizens trapped behind enemy lines, whether it's how quickly the Taliban moved to take over that country, declare victory, the loss of our embassy, The emboldenment of Russia and China. | |
| I can promise you there were multiple conversations at the NSC regarding every one of these issues. | ||
| This is not a surprise at all. | ||
| And what I've seen in the last couple of days is that the recommendation was unanimous to keep those 2,500 US service members in country, backstopping the Afghan soldiers. | ||
| So again, I think that there were no surprises coming out of the White House at the NSC. | ||
| Okay, we're going to take a short commercial break. | ||
| When we return, we've got Captain Bannon, we've got Admiral Hewitt, Mike Lindell's going to join us, and we've got other surprises. | ||
| In the last half hour, as we run through the tape in the War Room. | ||

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. | ||
| Okay, welcome back to the War Room. | ||
| A lot going on today. | ||
| We've had a commitment by Senator Jake Corman, the President Pro Tem of the Pennsylvania Senate. | ||
| He's going to back subpoenas in, he says, subpoenas that will get through Shapiro, the Attorney General, and the Democrat-controlled Supreme Court of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. | ||
| So that's all to be seen. | ||
| A lot of work to do there. | ||
| I want to bring in back Admiral Hewitt. | ||
| Admiral Hewitt, there's all kind of descriptions in the paper today that Biden thought he had two years, that there was going to be, maybe there'd be like Saigon and all this. | ||
| I think you and other voices that have had a lot of experience in these types of situations beg to differ. | ||
| Tell me why you beg to differ, because they're all like shocked about the immediate collapse of the Afghan National Army. | ||
| Sir, your opinions and observations. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, first off, I think the force that was on the ground from the US, the 2500, which were mainly in peacekeeping roles, were critical for the Afghan military to sustain against the Taliban. | |
| With no doubt in my mind that they were going to collapse and collapse. | ||
| So them leaving Bagram really set them up for the failure that they've had. | ||
| Moreover, the embassy in Afghanistan Reported that they anticipated a very quick collapse once the military left. | ||
| And so I think there was very strong evidence from the administration, actually, that this was going to occur. | ||
| You're saying, I think you said there's like 23 of the 25 case officers had actually warned the National Security Council and therefore the White House that there's a high probability of an imminent collapse, particularly if you had to make the decision with only 2,500. | ||
| What they're saying now, hey, we had to choose between Bagram, that's like 30 miles out of town, versus the airport that's in town. | ||
| And my point is the decision to let Bagram go is just catastrophic. | ||
| That's a domino effect. | ||
| that brought us to this place today. And we have 15,000 hostages. We had 50 in Tehran. | ||
| Admiral Hewitt, I know you're not on social media, but we'll work with you on that. Look forward to having you back early next week. Thank you very much for joining us in the War Room. | ||

Thanks, Steve. | |
| Captain Bennett, just let us know if you get any more breaking news. | ||
| The Afghan situation spins out of control. | ||
| Of course, Joe Biden, the illegitimate Joe Biden, he's acting like a real Commander-in-Chief. | ||
| Is he in the Situation Room? | ||
| No. | ||
| Is he up at Camp David in that Situation Room? | ||
| No. | ||
| Is he going to take the weekend off up at Delaware? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Figure that one out. | ||
| Was that where Jack Kennedy was in the Cuban Missile Crisis? | ||
| Is that where President Trump was anytime there's any issue at all, right down to the Situation Room? | ||
| Right? | ||
| No. | ||
| He's got to go to Delaware. | ||
| I want to bring in now Mike Lindell, who has been at the tip of the fight of this 3 November project about the cyber hacks, Chinese Communist Party, all of it. | ||
| Mike, today there's a preliminary report coming from Arizona. | ||
| They're already doing pre-bottles. | ||
| Katie Hobbs is doing a pre-bottle in Arizona. | ||
| The hack that's the Republican guy in Maricopa County, he's doing a pre-bottle because Politico is saying, brace for impact for this report. | ||
| Then you've got Georgia, they're fighting about putting Fulton County in receivership. | ||
| We just had this firefight on national TV between the Patriot Colonel Amastiano and Senator Jay Corman. | ||
| And Jay Corman did send the letter about this whole situation back in January. | ||
| It was a very powerful letter. | ||
| He wanted those electors, he wanted it reverted back to Pennsylvania so that they could take 10 days or so to get to the bottom of were they certified correctly. | ||
| And go to Wendy Rogers right now, put it up in the live chat. | ||
| Let's sign her petition to start to decertify the electors in Arizona. | ||
| Because you had explosive news coming out of the whistleblower that's a clerk in Colorado. | ||
| You say you've got other whistleblowers coming forward that are Dominion guys. | ||
| But how does this all tie to what's happening now in real time and what we call the ground game that's now starting to explode, whether it's in Arizona, it's in Georgia, it's the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, you've got guys doing investigations in Wisconsin, you're about to have Michigan. | ||
| How does yours kind of tie together with that? | ||
| Well, as you've been calling it, I have the air game, and now we have the ground game. | ||
| And having that symposium, that was to ignite the ground game, so to speak. | ||
| We already have the air game ready to go, and now we've got to get these states on board, and they're coming on board, Steve. | ||
| One of the things that came out of this Colorado, there's so many things that other states are going to be able to use. | ||
| One of them we found in the voting machine, it's called Ranked Choice Voting. | ||
| And that what that is, that Colorado doesn't have ranked choice voting, but they can also, they had no reason to have that on the machines, but it's called the weighted Gregory method. | ||
| And that's how they use fractional voting in these, in these machines. | ||
| That's how they use like when they set up for Sheba back in the primaries, 60, 40, 60, 40, 60, 40. | ||
| So, but what we have in Arizona or in Colorado, we have a before and after. | ||
| When that Secretary of State's office came in and rated and even when they did the they came in and did it's called the it's called a treated. | ||
| Let's see here. | ||
| Anyway, they're calling it. | ||
| They're naming it this thing that they that they're coming in. | ||
| It's like a update on their equipment. | ||
| And when they came in, they took things that was supposed to have. | ||
| It's called a trusted build. | ||
| Trusted build. | ||
| That's what it's called. | ||
| They're using it under this disguise to come in and take these things off the Dominion machines that they're supposed to hold on to for 22 months. | ||
| But they made a mistake because we have before and after. | ||
| We know everything. | ||
| And then we know what they added. | ||
| They added antivirus stuff. | ||
| So when machines go online, thought they weren't supposed to go online. | ||
| Tina Peters has, she is a whistleblower now. | ||
| She was the, and this is going to just blow up. | ||
| We're reaching out to all the states. | ||
| Everyone can do their own mini audits. | ||
| Just go up there and go, hey, we want to look in the machines. | ||
| We want your routers. | ||
| We want to check this out. | ||
| And it's got, you got Arizona coming out, Georgia, Wisconsin, all these states are just going to, you know, this was the biggest crime in history and it's going to fall like dominoes now. | ||
| Okay, so the lawyer for Mr. Steven Shackelford for the Sussman Law Firm, you know, is one of the top litigation firms in the country. | ||
| He's been on media, he's been doing media now, and he's saying, hey, you've got absolutely nothing. | ||
| And everything that you guys come forward with just shows you don't understand how the machines work. | ||
| It's a problem of, it's a problem of you just don't understand it and you're throwing out wild accusations. | ||
| So let's go to Tina Peters for a second. | ||
| Tina Peters is an official in Mesa County in the elections clerk. | ||
| Where is she right now? | ||
| Are they trying to track her down? | ||
| Are Colorado authorities trying to track her down? | ||
| And is she in hiding somewhere? | ||
| Or is she avoiding Colorado authorities? | ||
| Actually, after the symposium, remember, her office was raided on the way to the symposium. | ||
| Then another guy that was related to the thing, but he had nothing to do with anything. | ||
| He came to the symposium. | ||
| His house was raided by the Sheriff and Secretary of State's office. | ||
| They had four little kids, and his was rated. | ||
| Then we moved Tina, we actually moved her to another state, and Josh Merritt outed her and said, so he said the state she was in. | ||
| So then we moved her again, and then last night when she was coming on my show on FrankSpeech.com... Hold it, slow down for a second. | ||
| What do you mean Josh Merritt outed her? | ||
| Josh Merritt's part of your red team. | ||
| No, no, Josh Merritt was corruptly on there. | ||
| He was, we found out he, he's the one that, uh, got in there and his, his whole objective was to attack the symposium, bring in false information, try and discredit everything. | ||
| And we, uh, Mike, so you got, you got some of the best lawyers in the country representing you against the dominion suit. | ||
| You've also got great lawyers working on your cyber thug. | ||
| If Tina Peters, and I understand you're talking to the whistleblowers, you're compiling this information, but if Tina Peters, If she has the goods. | ||
| And she's got all this. | ||
| Have you guys, with Tina Peters, approached prosecutors, because you're saying this is all criminal activity, have you approached prosecutors, have you approached the authorities in the state of Colorado, and say, hey look, I know you're running around trying to look for her, but she's got this information, and we've been able to back it up by our analysis, and here's what happened in Mesa County, and here's what happened in Grand Junction, and here's what we call evidence, here's facts, here's details. | ||
| Have you guys Thought about that? | ||
| Have you done it? | ||
| Are you preparing to do it? | ||
| Or are you not going to do it? | ||
| Well, there's lawyers I have on that. | ||
| And so I don't know, I haven't checked with them on that. | ||
| We're going to do everything it takes to bring one of the things, Steve, I will say this, they're going, they're talking about, you know, long this long game. | ||
| And that what we have now that they took out of these machines, I said, no, we're on a short game. | ||
| They're ruining our country. | ||
| We need to do right now, get this out in the media. | ||
| And that's what we're doing. | ||
| We're finding out everything that they removed from the machines, because remember, we have a picture. | ||
| Let's take a picture of a room before you came in there and remove stuff. | ||
| And then a picture afterwards. | ||
| And by the way, when they did this. | ||
| They did two things. | ||
| One, I believe, was May 25th when they came in and took all this stuff. | ||
| Then they did it on August 10th during the symposium. | ||
| They put stuff over the windows. | ||
| We have a before and after of that. | ||
| Went in there and they left with, whatever they left with, they're supposed to leave a list. | ||
| That's illegal too. | ||
| I guess we're trying to find, we'll probably find out, Steve, how many laws they broke, how many things of the Constitution they broke. | ||
| And then the Secretary of State, And Colorado, you know, that's just a kind of like a separate issue how the stuff that they've done. | ||
| But I want to get out to the country. | ||
| Every machine's got this stuff attached to it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But let's talk about this for a second. | |
| You've got Arizona's coming out today with their preliminary report. | ||
| And this started back in April, right? | ||
| Approximately. | ||
| And that was after months. | ||
| And this is why the Corman situation in Pennsylvania is so important. | ||
| This process always starts with subpoenas. | ||
| The Democrats never want to come forward with any evidence, because they won with 81 million votes, because obviously they don't want to show that, how they crushed Trump. | ||
| So it always starts with subpoenas. | ||
| But Mike, do you have any intelligence today, or any feeling, does the report that's coming out in Arizona, Back up in any way your contentions against Dominion or any of the machine companies to what you've been saying both in your overall cyber symposium and now your independent or associated investigation into Mesa County, Colorado with the whistleblower Tina Peters. | ||
| Do you have any idea, is this report today, this preliminary report, going to back up or be even adjacent to what you've been saying? | ||
| Well, there has been so much obstruction in Arizona, you know, for months. | ||
| And I don't know, you know, they never got the routers. | ||
| But so if they had the routers, it would match up exactly with what I have for the pack, the captures for the whole election. | ||
| But it should show if they did this audit, it should show about 100,000 votes flipped, because that's what we have actually in the in the data. | ||
| That's just in Mesa County. | ||
| You mean Maricopa? | ||
| That's just in Maricopa County, correct. | ||
| Hang on, let's put a pin in that. | ||
| You're saying that the preliminary report comes out, your analysis shows 100,000 delta between votes recorded in hard ballots, right? | ||
| Essentially. | ||
| But I had nothing to do with that audit, so I don't know anything about it, Steve. | ||
| I'm telling you what my data shows. | ||
| That's what I'm saying. | ||
| It's a data point, whatever they come up with. | ||
| You're saying you can show, or your analysis will show, that that number is 100,000. | ||
| I just want to put a pin in there. | ||
| That's correct. | ||
| That's what you guys are saying? | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Go ahead. | ||
| And also, if you go to frankspeech.com, you can go down and you can, we have all the states there, you can go to Arizona, and I think it's Donald Trump won by three or four hundred thousand, according to our data. | ||
| That's when you take in every county. | ||
| Pima County, Pinal County, the rest of the state. | ||
| But you're saying in Maricopa alone, you show that it's a hundred thousand, correct? | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Mike, we want you to stay over through the next break. | ||
| I've got a couple more questions to ask you. | ||
| I know what you're working on. | ||
| And the big question is, when we come back with Mike Lindell, The progress is being made. | ||
| Remember, the air game, Mike Lindell, is different than the state legislatures. | ||
| That's why you've got Senator Corman calling in. | ||
| That's why you've got Senator Mastriano. | ||
| That's why you have Brandon Beach and Bert Jones down in Georgia. | ||
| That's why you've got the hero Colonel Wendy Rogers. | ||
| And you've got Karen Fann and Gunny Sonny Borelli. | ||
| This is a fight within the Constitution with the ground game. | ||
| Mike Lindell's is a legal aspect. | ||
| This is going to go, he says, to the Supreme Court. | ||
| How's he going to get there? | ||
| He's going to get standing by attorney generals in the different states. | ||
| And how's he going to do that? | ||
| He's going to show them incontrovertible evidence that this thing was hacked by the Chinese Communist Party through the machines. | ||
| All next in The War Room. | ||

| Thank you, brother. | ||
| Captain Bannon, you got breaking news coming out of Afghanistan, ma'am? | ||
| I do. | ||
| Right now, my sources are telling me that no American effort to leave the airport to get American hostages have been planned. | ||
| American soldiers are not allowed to leave the airport. | ||
| However, UK and French special forces have left the airport to get their personnel that are trapped in the city. | ||
| And I'm also receiving word that no flights in or out of Kabul airport at this time have occurred. | ||
| No flights for the last couple hours or how long? | ||
| The last eight hours and as of right now they're not scheduled to come in or out in the next couple of hours as well. | ||
| This is not the way you get 15,000 hostages. | ||
| That's what they are, the hostages to the tender mercies of the Taliban. | ||
| OK, let's go now to I want to introduce the lawyer, sir. | ||
| You're from Liberty Council, Mr. Meath. | ||
| I want to meet. | ||
| I want to introduce you. | ||
| We've had people on the last couple of days about whether it's vaccine mandates, the the mass mandates, all of this. | ||
| And the question is, we had Frank Mealy from the Free State of Montana on yesterday. | ||
| He said the biggest thing, he walked through how he can combat it. | ||
| They said, hey, people need lawyers. | ||
| This is what Liberty Council is doing. | ||
| You're trying to organize this effort. | ||
| We only got a couple of minutes. | ||
| Can you walk people through? | ||
| Because I want to get it out there and have our force multipliers push it. | ||
| What are you guys doing to get people lawyers? | ||

So, Steve, across the country, millions of Americans are being forced to choose between their faith and their job or between their conscience and their school. | |
| That's an unconscionable choice that no American should have to make. | ||
| And so, fortunately, the law entitles people of faith especially to a exemption, a religious exemption and an accommodation for their beliefs that may include objections to these vaccines | ||
| Perhaps because all three of them have their genesis in abortion they were developed or tested with fetal parts from aborted babies or for any other number of reasons for their conscience and their religious beliefs and so the law is on their side but unfortunately a lot of employers and schools are refusing to understand that and so it's time for an army of lawyers to | ||
| To rise up and to start sending legal demand letters and to start filing lawsuits against these lawbreakers in order to hold them accountable and in order to protect the right of conscience of Americans. | ||
| And so at Liberty Counsel, we are providing the tools and the knowledge and the sample demand letters and sample suits for any licensed attorney in the country that is willing to give of their time an effort in order to join this important fight for freedom. | ||
| And so I would just encourage any attorneys that are interested in this to visit Liberty Council's website, lc.org forward slash affiliate, and we can get them plugged into this battle. | ||
| In fact, we have a conference call at 3 o'clock Eastern, noon California time today to provide some of this initial training. | ||
| But the need is dire. | ||
| The need is urgent. | ||
| People are hurting and they're coming to Liberty Council for help. | ||
| And we're trying to help as many as we can, but the numbers coming in are far greater Then any one organization alone can keep up with and so I just want to encourage people that may be listening to join this effort. | ||
| Mr. Mead, if people, we only got a minute, if people come to this site today, is the number there they can actually join the conference call and get some training? | ||
| Is that available? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| LC.org forward slash affiliate. | ||
| We have the number for the telephone conference. | ||
| We have some forms that we would want them to fill out and we will get them plugged in today, right away, in this important fight. | ||
| You're a hero. | ||
| We're going to have you back on to drill down more. | ||
| Really appreciate it. | ||
| This is what action, action, action. | ||
| You have patriots standing up across the country. | ||
| Most importantly, you have your sons and daughters standing up in Kabul right now defending American citizens, okay? | ||
| And also defending those who fought with us in Afghanistan. | ||
| Afghani people are voting. | ||
| They're tossing their kids over the transit. | ||
| Mo, what's your social media? | ||
| It's RealMaurineBannon on Instagram. | ||
| Perfect. | ||
| Thank you, ma'am. |
