I killed more than a hundred people in China and new cases have been confirmed around the world. | |
| You don't want to frighten the American public. | ||
| France and South Korea have also got evacuation plans. | ||
| But you need to prepare for and assume. | ||
| Broadly warning Americans to avoid all non-essential travel to China. | ||
| That 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 a hundred 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 and the worst happens, War Room Pandemic. | ||

Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | |
| We're on a pace to finish by August the 31st. | ||
| The sooner we can finish, the better. | ||
| Each day of operations brings added risk to our troops, but The completion by August 31st depends upon the Taliban continuing to cooperate and allow access to the airport for those who were transporting out and no disruptions to our operations. | ||
| In addition, I've asked the Pentagon and the State Department for contingency plans to adjust the timetable should that become necessary. | ||
| I'm determined to ensure that we complete our mission, this mission. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It is not going to be possible to get American citizens out and our Afghan partners and their families out between now and the end of the month. | |
| That's why there is broad and deep bipartisan support in Congress and across the country to extend the deadline and to make sure that we're doing what's necessary to get folks out. | ||
| The end of this mission should come not based on a calendar date. | ||
| It should come when we accomplish the mission. | ||
| But we are seeing a huge bit of progress on the part of the military and pulling and getting people out now. | ||
| But is Biden just inherently betting that the American people are with him on this in the long run? | ||
| Do you think he is making the right bet? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, as you probably are aware, I actually have lauded the president from the very beginning about Afghanistan. | |
| He was dealt a horrible situation. | ||
| And as of today, he's done an extremely good job in this situation. | ||
| Extremely good job. | ||
| That is Matthew Dowd, a guy for years has spread lies and misinformation about Iraq. | ||
| Blood all over his hands. | ||
| This is the kind of personality you got on TV now, to spread nothing but lies. | ||
| You're in the War Room. | ||
| We're live Wednesday, 25 August, Year of Our Lord 2021. | ||
| A news cycle like no other, now with almost 80 million downloads. | ||
| We're live everywhere at Real America's Voice on the On the dish, on cable, everywhere, every platform, in live chat, also in Mandarin, through G-News and GTV, and Japanese, and of course, John Fredericks Radio Network nationwide. | ||
| I want to start today with Eric Prince. | ||
| Eric Prince is the lead on the biggest story. | ||
| If you go to the website of the New York Times, Eric Prince has got the lead. | ||
| But before I get to the details of what the New York Times and Wall Street Journal are saying about Mr. Prince, Eric, is the president right when he addresses the American people? | ||
| Is this situation kind of under control in the 31st, which the allies, our allies begged to take a tough stance with the Taliban and to get more time to get their people out? | ||
| When the president looks into the camera and tells you we're getting out and Americans are getting out and it's under control, is that a true statement or not? | ||
| It is unequivocally not under control. | ||
| It is complete bedlam still. | ||
| All around Kabul Airport, there are multiple layers of Taliban checkpoints. | ||
| A lot of foreign fighters have moved in in the last 24 hours. | ||
| They are seizing people's documents, including American citizens, beating them. | ||
| You know, they're lucky if they just get turned away and not beaten or worse. | ||
| So it is devolving to a hostage situation. | ||
| There's no chance that all the American citizens get out by the 31st. | ||
| Not to mention all the SIV, Afghans, visa holders that have been helping America for the last 20 years. | ||
| We are abandoning our friends and our allies and the president is completely and unequivocally wrong on this account. | ||
| So I want to go through there. | ||
| This is your line of country, as we say. | ||
| How did we get in this situation, given the facts? | ||
| And I'll talk about what you recommended to President Trump, this kind of brilliant plan in 2017, that the generals really looked at President Trump, lied about the position in Afghanistan, what it was going to cost, etc. | ||
| But how did we get into this situation over the last couple months to this place today that it's chaos, where American citizens are going to be left behind as hostages, or potentially, and the only way that we're able to get anybody out is through the good graces, on bended knee, on good graces, left to the tender mercies of the Taliban. | ||
| How did that happen, Eric Prince? | ||
| Steve, we're left to the tendo mercies of Al Qaeda leadership, literally that just came back from Pakistan, that there's a $5 million bounty for. | ||
| Look, what happened is over the last 20 years, the US military replicated itself with the same command structure with with the need for some very expensive weapons. | ||
| And then very suddenly, the Pentagon stripped all that support away, literally pulling some of the the electronics out of the aircraft. | ||
| So and the contractor support for the maintenance. | ||
| I mean, look, the Afghan population is 90% illiterate. | ||
| So building up a an Air Force Um, to run sophisticated machinery, almost impossible. | ||
| But yet the Pentagon stripped all that away. | ||
| And so today there's a general from the Afghan army that was actually running the Afghan commandos writes a fantastic op ed as to how they were betrayed. | ||
| Because all these key enablers were stripped away very suddenly within a matter of weeks, and they were left hanging. | ||
| They couldn't get food. | ||
| They couldn't get ammunition. | ||
| They couldn't get close air support. | ||
| They couldn't do any of those things. | ||
| And so these guys were cut off, surrounded, and annihilated, and that's why there was... | ||
| A cataclysmic collapse of those Afghan forces. | ||
| And what I recommended to Trump four years ago, what I recommended to the incoming Biden team in January and February of this year was a small contracted footprint of veteran contractors that would stay and live and train and fight alongside the Afghans, a total of 6,000, which would have prevented this entire debacle. | ||
| It would have prevented the entire country from being overrun. | ||
| It would have been mentors attached to each of the Afghan battalions so that they had communications and logistics and medical and weapons expertise at each unit. | ||
| We would have done air support. | ||
| I used to have 56 of my own airplanes in country doing this mission supporting the U.S. | ||
| forces. | ||
| It's the same model. | ||
| It could have been continued. | ||
| And then, of course, the combat logistics support to make sure the men are paid, fed, fuel, ammunition on time without the graft and corruption If they had done those things, it would have been 5% of what the Pentagon's spend on Afghanistan was the last few years. | ||
| Just 5%. | ||
| And it would have prevented the collapse of Afghanistan as we know it. | ||
| Okay, you talk about, I don't believe in a deep state, it's an administrative state, it's up in your face, and Eric, you've seen it many, many times. | ||
| How does the intel operation, the intel they're giving in Austin and Millie, how do they make these decisions over the last 10 weeks to give up Bagram, to withdraw our troops, give up Bagram, And then kind of just think, hey, we can just keep Kabul Airport open, get the Americans out at any time, all by August 31st. | ||
| Just walk through, what was their logic to now we're into a hostage situation? | ||
| And unconfirmed reports I'm hearing today, and Michael Yan's going to be at the end of the show, maybe as many as 7,000 to 10,000 Americans still there, right? | ||
| They can't get to the airport. | ||
| How did Milley, Austin, and the intelligence community blow this over the last 10 weeks? | ||
| It's hard to use logic in any part of that sentence because there is none. | ||
| Why do you give up your largest air base in the region that's in a big open plane, a bowl, that's easily defended, and say, oh, no, we're going to make our last withdrawal from Kabul airport in the midst of a city of four and a half million people surrounded by high hills on three sides, where even 10 guys with a mortar tube can shut down that airfield? | ||
| I am very worried about the U.S. | ||
| troops. | ||
| We've lost 2,500 killed in the last 20 years there. | ||
| We could lose that many in the next week if the Taliban chose to fight. | ||
| Well, $2,500 doesn't count the 4,000 contractors. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You lost $6,500. | |
| All the pipe hitters and contractors all died. | ||
| Eric, what's the situation now? | ||
| lost 6,500. All the pipe hitters and contractors all died. | ||
| Eric, what's the situation now? | ||
| There's high chance of carnage in this last week. | ||
| American citizens that are there today, whether it's a couple thousand or ten thousand, tell our audience, what do they face? | ||
| What gauntlet did they face right now, in your opinion, or your analysis, your knowledge, to actually get on a plane and get out of Kabul? | ||
| Well, to make matters worse, someone in the State Department left a computer database intact of all the translators Of all the commandos, all the rest, all their bio data and their phone numbers. | ||
| So the Taliban have been calling them and luring them in to come in and say, Hey, we want to rescue you or extract you all the rest. | ||
| And they're arrested and executed or worse. | ||
| So a lot of those translators, uh, had family members that went to America and became American citizens. | ||
| So they have a double whammy of, of very, very deadly consequences for these people that helped us that are now American citizens and back there. | ||
| Yeah, they have a gauntlet. | ||
| They have to go through multiple gunned up Taliban checkpoints just to try to get to the proximity of the airfield. | ||
| And many of them are stripped of their documents, beaten, or worse. | ||
| And so it makes for an extremely ugly situation. | ||
| That video you're showing now, there it shows people scared, trying to get out and bedlam. | ||
| That's the real chance of that happening if we have to depend on the Taliban to secure the airport perimeter while our last aircraft leave. | ||
| That is the makings of a disaster situation. | ||
| New York Times, big screaming headlines. | ||
| Eric Prince, rock star, defense contractor, mercenary, James Bond villain, etc. | ||
| charging $6,500 a seat to get people out. | ||
| What say you about that charge, Mr. Eric Prince? | ||
| Wall Street Journal contacted us about exfilling a bunch of their Afghan staff and I said that's that's what the fee is and that gets them from out in town all the way to the airport onto the airplane and out of there and it is extremely difficult to get aviators to want to operate there because all the insurance has been canceled so the aircraft operations are literally taking it | ||
| Complete risk, because you can imagine no one wants to write war risk insurance to fly into Kabul Airport right now, under the governance of the Taliban. | ||
| I just want to make sure our audience understands that. | ||
| People, major corporations and others are coming to contract, and other governments are coming to contractors like yourselves, who know the region, to say, hey, what do you, what kind of, what do I need to put up, what kind of money do I need to put up to get my people out, I gotta get my people out, but how do you do it, etc. | ||
| People are just coming to you, they're not, The U.S. | ||
| government part of it, the military part of it, so collapsed that they're coming to independent contractors like yourself? | ||
| Look, what Perot did to get his people out in 79 out of Tehran, this is just a larger, more industrialized scale. | ||
| Two things. | ||
| Number one, in the region, the Chinese Communist Party right now, all kind of reports that they're in back of the Taliban, they're working with the Taliban, they're saying that any Americans left over ought to be held on human rights or war crime charges. | ||
| The situation in Taiwan, South China Sea, in Beijing right now, By the way, they're about to blow back on us. | ||
| They're threatening us. | ||
| We put this report out about the Wuhan lab that Intel is going to give Biden today, the classified version. | ||
| They're going to blow back on that. | ||
| Where do we stand with the CCP, the transnational criminal organization, Eric Prince? | ||
| Look, they are extremely concerned about the Taliban giving the Uyghurs sanctuary, and there have been a lot of Uyghurs have rolled into Afghanistan and set up those camps. | ||
| That's why the Chinese Communist Party, more than the minerals or energy or anything else, that's why they will cozy up next to the Taliban in an attempt To get the Taliban to suppress the Uyghurs. | ||
| If the Uyghurs have sanctuary inside Afghanistan, it's a huge problem for the CCP. | ||
| So that is a wedge, because if the Taliban choose Chinese money over their Islamic brethren, they're definitely not staying true to their jihad cause. | ||
| Look, there's already a lot of internal dissension amongst the Taliban as to who's jockeying for position now. | ||
| So that is a gap to be exploited. | ||
| That's what I want to add. | ||
| By the way, the Taliban is not a unified thing. | ||
| You've got, you know, different tribes and the Taliban guys hate each other, etc. | ||
| They're in each other's throats all the time. | ||
| Last thing, and I'd like you to hold over for a few minutes. | ||
| I understand you're incredibly busy, but the question I want to ask you, I'm going to ask you now and I want to answer it when you get back. | ||
| We're a couple of weeks away from 9-11. | ||
| After two trillion dollars, After 6,000 war dead, both contractor pipe hitters and American troops, after what, 25,000 wounded? | ||
| After the PTSD and I'm just learning about suicides are going on of men that served in Afghanistan? | ||
| 60,000, Steve, 60,000 veteran suicides since 9-11. | ||
| More losses dead than we've had in the total Vietnam War. | ||
| So yeah, it's been a high cost. | ||
| Here's a question I want you to answer when you get back. | ||
| On 9-11 in Afghanistan, is there going to be a celebration of the creation of a terrorist super-state? | ||
| Haqqani, Al Qaeda, ISIS, Taliban, every bad hombre. | ||
| All in the... | ||
| You better believe it. | ||
| All in the... | ||
| On the 20th. | ||
| Okay, short commercial break. | ||
| Eric Prince, you're going to return in a minute. | ||
| Got Eric Prince, got Richard Barris, got MTG, Sidney Powell, Pact lineup, Eric Greitens, all of it next in The War Room. | ||

20 years. | |
| Thousands of war dead. | ||
| Section 60 over there in Arlington National Cemetery. | ||
| We had this thing kind of taken in three weeks or four weeks with the paramilitaries, the CIA, you know, pipe hitters in the Northern Alliance. | ||
| Twenty years later, on the anniversary of 9-11, and for those in this audience too young to remember that, the worst day in America, including Pearl Harbor. | ||
| What are they going to do in Kabul that day, sir? | ||
| Is this the creation of a terrorist super state on Joe Biden's watch? | ||
| Sure. | ||
| They have their funding. | ||
| They have a few billion dollars worth of American weapons now, including laser guided rockets, missiles, drones, aircraft, etc. | ||
| And there's really going to be a terrorist global convention. | ||
| Al-Shabaab from Somalia, Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, the Al-Qaeda wanted terrorists have come back from Pakistan, they're all going to hang out in Afghanistan, where they have sanctuary, they have a caliphate. | ||
| They're literally declaring a caliphate, so literally going back to a thousand years ago, declaring another caliphate with a caliph, because they have significant terrain now. | ||
| We haven't seen this in American history. | ||
| This is really bad. | ||
| I can't, there's not enough to describe how bad. | ||
| Would you lay this directly on the doorstep? | ||
| Because we're on Marjorie Taylor Greene about her impeachment efforts, and Richard Burr is going to come in here in a second and talk about the American people's confidence is plummeting in the sky. | ||
| Joe Biden, among our allies, do you believe this rises to the level of movement on impeachment? | ||
| Do you put it directly at his doors, Commander-in-Chief? | ||
| Look, before I even get to that point, I just want to make sure we get all the guys out of there over the next week, because I am very worried about it turning into another, like when the British Empire left Kabul in 1842, 16,000 people left, one guy made it to Jalalabad. | ||
| It is extremely, extremely dangerous times. | ||
| By the way, the doctor that got to the Jalalabad was allowed to get there, because they wanted an eyewitness to tell the British people what happened. | ||
| They wanted somebody to tell the story, just how bad it was. | ||
| Tell the story. | ||
| And remember, the British troops kept one bullet for themselves at the end, instead of falling in the hands of the then-Taliban. | ||
| Okay? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Eric Prince, thank you. | |
| The locals didn't even bother to kill all the civilians. | ||
| They just stripped them of their clothes and let them freeze to death. | ||
| January of 1842. | ||
| Eric, how can people follow you? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Are you on social media? | |
| I put some things on LinkedIn once in a while, but other than that, I'm just happy to talk to you, Steve. | ||
| Fine, that's the way it is. | ||
| Okay, go back. | ||
| I know you get very important meetings today. | ||
| Eric Prince, thank you so much for joining us in the War Room. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You bet. | |
| If they had followed Prince's plan in 17, we would not be here today. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| Those are the voices of reason. | ||
| That's why the media hates him. | ||
| That's why the administrative state hates him. | ||
| That's why the generals that lied to Trump's face hate him. | ||
| That would be Mattis and McMasters. | ||
| And by the way, if they got a problem with that, come on here. | ||
| I'll go anywhere in the world, anytime, anyplace, on a stage, live, and walk through exactly what your lies and misrepresentations were. | ||
| Because they were lies. | ||
| Okay, that's one of the reasons we're in the situation is that over 20 years. | ||
| But Biden can't walk away from this. | ||
| This is directly on his doorstep. | ||
| Milley ought to be fired. | ||
| Austin ought to be fired. | ||
| Blinken ought to be fired. | ||
| Jake Sullivan, the little pencil neck, ought to be fired. | ||
| Start with those four. | ||
| We're off the bat. | ||
| It's a disgrace. | ||
| Remember, they're your betters. | ||
| For the people in the audience, remember you're lectured for being in the Trump movement, being America first. | ||
| Donald Trump's so incompetent. | ||
| Donald Trump, the allies. | ||
| You know, don't want America is back. | ||
| America is back. | ||
| You know, that's that's what you hear from Biden. | ||
| Richard Barris, the People's Pundit, walk us through what you saw in USA Today compared to what you're seeing. | ||
| Tell us about the thing out of the USA Today. | ||
| Thirty two percent of independents approve of that's the proxy approve of Joe Biden. | ||
| He's imploding. | ||
| Like you said he would, Brother Barris, because he has no floor. | ||
| He has no base support. | ||
| Richard Barris, your thoughts and analysis? | ||
| Yeah, I think they just, you know, they kept going and got results out faster than we did. | ||
| But, you know, it's funny. | ||
| I think Rasmussen, they came out with 44. | ||
| It was their all-time low that very day. | ||
| The USA Today poll came out, and we talked. | ||
| We change what we see out there in the field and it was just really a floor that was just ready to bottom out and what USA Today that one interview we have several Republicans telling us the same thing if you read their article The lies start to fall away, Steve. | ||
| The lies start to fall away, and you have him at 41, and he'll fall into the 30s, uh, once people continue to realize... But hang on, but hold, but hold, hold, hold, but hold it, hold it, hold it, hang on. | ||
| This is what people... we gotta get back to the math here for a second. | ||
| Here's why. | ||
| He still has such overwhelming support of the... the 44 at Rasmus and the 41 are a little bit... | ||
| Ephemeral. | ||
| They're not real numbers, and here's why. | ||
| It counts in an overload of Democrats. | ||
| That's why the proxy's independents. | ||
| And that's why USA Today, these people, for folks out there, let's give you some, they're not putting out the crosstabs. | ||
| They don't want the Steve Cortezes and the Richard Barris all over these crosstabs. | ||
| They put the crosstab on The Economist, and that's where Cortez found he's got 0.0 among Hispanics in the category, is he handling the economy in an excellent manner? | ||
| That's what my point is. | ||
| The 44 and 41, how soft are those? | ||
| Those are kind of fake numbers because it includes the Democrats are still all in because they got to be all in. | ||
| They understand Orange Man bad and this is illegitimate, but we got to prop it up or it's over for us as a party. | ||
| It's over for us as a political philosophy. | ||
| Richard Beres. | ||
| Yeah, and I would argue that he isn't like Barack Obama with Democratic-based support. | ||
| There is a progressive wing of the party that just doesn't like Joe Biden. | ||
| If he does something to tick them off, they're not, they're not tied to this man either. | ||
| That's, that's why he has really more, more vulnerability than others. | ||
| But this is, you look at that USA Today policy, you see the same thing that we saw and told you and told everybody else, which is generally that once this coronavirus issue starts to soften, and it is softening, That will go underwater on the economy again, and he did. | ||
| And then all of these other issues would start to drag him down because he never had a positive rating. | ||
| He never got high marks on these other issues. | ||
| And USA Today, you know, I'm smiling a little bit, but it's predictable. | ||
| And if you look at the economy now in their poll, he's underwater again. | ||
| He was actually above water in their poll last month. | ||
| Uh, and just down the line. | ||
| And the coronavirus is about 50%. | ||
| It's a little over 50%. | ||
| That is not good enough. | ||
| When you look at the interviews that they put in that article, and I would love to see the crosstabs, but I guess we don't get to see them yet. | ||
| When you look at the interviews, they just, it's an echo of what we are hearing. | ||
| If you are even a Republican or an Independent who voted for Joe Biden, you didn't like Trump's attitude, they are, there's this sense, basically, well, we got rid of the mean tweets, so where is the rest of it? | ||
| Right, so at least the economy would have been better. | ||
| At least we wouldn't have given billions of dollars in military items to the Taliban. | ||
| And look, if you just go back and look at the Republican they interviewed, they put in that article, that's it Steve, that's it in a nutshell. | ||
| I mean, that guy says it all. | ||
| Let me ask you, let's go to even the COVID though. | ||
| All these mixed messagings because they're using the FDA or quasi-FDA approval of one of the Pfizer, you know, the new Pfizer vaccine, and it's still kind of jiggy about how that was done and questioning if it's kids, if it's young people, if it's pregnant women. | ||
| It's all kind of up in the air. | ||
| You use it as a hammer. | ||
| He's at 50 on COVID right now. | ||
| How far could that fall? | ||
| Into the 40s, probably. | ||
| Because seniors hold him up, he could fall into the low 40s on that. | ||
| And if he does, his numbers overall are going to be mid-30s, low-30s. | ||
| It's going to be abysmal. | ||
| Generally, we just spoke to a guy yesterday who said, look, I got one jab. | ||
| I got two jabs. | ||
| The mask was supposed to come off. | ||
| Now the mask has to go back on. | ||
| You know, I mean, there's a sense of people who wanted to look at this fair-mindedly and didn't want to sound like conspiracy theories. | ||
| Fine, I'm a professional. | ||
| I'll get the shot. | ||
| But now, they're coming back and being told they need another booster, probably. | ||
| You just can't continue this forever. | ||
| There's a shrinking number of people who will just continue to swallow this stuff. | ||
| I mean, there are people who went out and got it because they wanted to travel unabated. | ||
| They wanted to, you know, work. | ||
| They didn't want to hear from their employer, maybe students. | ||
| But generally, if they weren't forced to, Steve, we'd still... | ||
| Yeah, over a quarter vaccine hesitancy. | ||
| We only got a minute or so here, but these numbers, I want to make sure the audience understands, do not incorporate, really, from Sunday forward, the increasing debacle and his increasing lies and now the realization, congressmen coming back saying, hey, all Americans are not going to get it. | ||
| Citizens are going to be left behind. | ||
| None of the polling right now reflects that, correct? | ||
| Yeah, first, we just don't see the reality of what Eric Prince just said. | ||
| We don't see that in the news yet. | ||
| We will. | ||
| But also, polling is cyclical. | ||
| The bottom line is, it's not even Labor Day yet. | ||
| People are still trying to get their kids to school. | ||
| They're winding down their summers. | ||
| This is the way polling is. | ||
| That's why pollsters wait till after Labor Day traditionally to move to a likely voter before an election. | ||
| That's why next month we start the generic ballot. | ||
| We didn't do it in the summer. | ||
| It just really doesn't have any predictive value, doesn't have any insight. | ||
| So once this pivots and we all get back to our lives, people will start to pay more attention. | ||
| And that's soon. | ||
| That's right around the corner. | ||
| So it's just bad news for the White House. | ||
| I'm predicting, and I've said this from day one since the day of his phony inauguration, that, hey, we're going to bleed this guy out. | ||
| He's going to be in the 30s and nothing will get done. | ||
| No political capital. | ||
| He's going to have a 2 in front of it. | ||
| It's going to be a high 2, but it's going to be a 2. | ||
| It's going to be 29. | ||
| It's going to get there. | ||
| Okay, Richard Burris, how do people get to you and how do they follow you? | ||
| Yeah, they can still follow me on Twitter at peoples underscore pundit. | ||
| And, uh, you know, they do all they can to hold me down there, Steve, but, uh, your audience has been great with that and I got to give them a shout out. | ||
| Uh, so yeah, they can go over and Twitter and follow me. | ||

| 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. | ||
| We had a bunch of cold opens set, but we're so jammed for time. | ||
| We've got so much important stuff to go through. | ||
| We're going to have to hold some of these cold opens. | ||
| I want to thank the great Tim Poole and his entire team. | ||
| Lydia, the producer, and all the team out there. | ||
| Ian, just a great group. | ||
| We were out there in Harpers Ferry last night with Tim Poole. | ||
| We're going to have clips if you haven't seen it yet. | ||
| You know, here I've got to be traffic cop, right? | ||
| When I go to Tim Poole, I can just rant for two hours. | ||
| So I want to thank Tim Poole for giving me the ability and the platform to just rant. | ||
| On many topics, particularly the globalists, the neocon, neoliberals, and this debacle in Afghanistan, our economy, what's happening with the $4 trillion article that was in Bloomberg yesterday. | ||
| I want to bring in now Congressman Marjorie Taylor Greene. | ||
| She's been the tip of the spear She's been mocked. | ||
| She's been ridiculed. | ||
| She's been demeaned. | ||
| She's been defamed. | ||
| And you know what? | ||
| She doesn't care. | ||
| complete total honey badger because she knows she's on the right. | ||
| In the actions over the last couple days, remember the big pitch, the basic pitch of Biden versus Orange Man bad was that they're the competent ones. | ||
| That the America first, you get a bunch of clowns like Marjorie Taylor Greene and Steve Bannon and Eric Prince and Steve Cortez and all these people and General Flynn, all these people around Trump. | ||
| They're not up to the level of what we need to run this country and to make sure the allies actually act like allies and things are sorted out and the economy runs and we don't blow up the balance sheet of the Federal Reserve, all that. | ||
| They're incompetent. | ||
| You know, they're not they're not the elite of the elite. | ||
| That the competent ones, your betters, your betters are with the buying things. | ||
| So you've seen what your betters have delivered. | ||
| You just, just look at what's in Afghanistan. | ||
| Look what's happened in China today on the COVID report. | ||
| Look what's happened to the southern border and the evasion. | ||
| Look what's happened to this debacle. | ||
| Another six trillion dollars. | ||
| It's Bloomberg. | ||
| It's not War Room. | ||
| It's not, it's not One American News. | ||
| It's not Real America's Voice. | ||
| It's not Dr. Gina Loudon. | ||
| It's not Tudor Dixon. | ||
| It's Bloomberg saying, hey, $4 trillion, $838 million an hour, right, of what we've already put on here in this debacle. | ||
| It's out of control. | ||
| It's spinning out of control. | ||
| And these are your bettors. | ||
| Your deplorables, they just want you to keep your mouth shut, go to work, pay your taxes, and let your pension funds be managed by them so they can ship the high value added manufacturing jobs over to China, their partners in China, that's what they want you to do. | ||
| And they don't care about your children, they don't care about your grandchildren. | ||
| And here's what they think about you as American citizens, and I want you to fully embrace this and just watch in Afghanistan, there's thousands of people left behind. | ||
| They think you're trash, and they treat you like trash, okay? | ||
| And remember, many of the citizens over there are progressives from Ivy League schools that work at NGOs that are over there for the women's rights and the health care. | ||
| They believe in the stuff, and hey, it's all good. | ||
| They're over there, they're working, right? | ||
| But they're American citizens, and they deserve to come out. | ||
| They don't deserve to be left behind as hostages, okay? | ||
| This is what Biden has brought, and someone that had the bravery to call this out months ago, and take action weeks ago, and say, you know what? | ||
| We gotta impeach this guy. | ||
| It's Marjorie Taylor Greene from Georgia. | ||
| Congressman Greene, thank you for joining us. | ||
| Where do we stand on your project? | ||
| Well, I've put a lot of pressure on my colleagues since I introduced articles of impeachment on Friday. | ||
| Now, remember, I introduced articles of impeachment back in January, actually January 20th, the same day that Joe Biden was inaugurated. | ||
| And that was about his corruption that he has shown throughout his career in positions of power, especially when he was vice president. | ||
| Uh, doing business deals with his son, Hunter, and his brother in Afghanistan and leading into China. | ||
| There's all that evidence there. | ||
| I had introduced articles of impeachment on him on his inauguration day because we knew what we had coming and everyone was refusing to talk about it. | ||
| But I introduced three articles of impeachment on Friday, this past Friday, three different ones. | ||
| First one overruling SCOTUS on the eviction moratorium. | ||
| CDC is not the fourth branch of power. | ||
| Joe Biden should not be allowing the CDC to run our country and make laws and organize how our money is spent on the federal level. | ||
| The second articles of impeachment is for the national security crisis created through Biden's border policies, which are no border policies. | ||
| Biden's border policies are wide open borders. | ||
| He has put every single American life in danger and he deserves to be impeached for that. | ||
| The third set of articles is the most important. | ||
| It is what he has done to Americans in Afghanistan. | ||
| It is what he has done to our American military. | ||
| It is what he has done to the level of respect for America across the world and even our allies. | ||
| This is dereliction of duty. | ||
| Joe Biden must be impeached. | ||
| So since I introduced those articles on Friday, I have been working hard, putting pressure on many of my colleagues. | ||
| Some of them are angry at me. | ||
| Some of them are thrilled with me. | ||
| Some of them say they want to get on board, but they're not on board yet. | ||
| But I have two co-sponsors, Mary Miller, Paul Gosar. | ||
| Listen, donate to them. | ||
| These are great Republicans. | ||
| They're fearless and they want to do the right thing. | ||
| But here's the good news I have, Steve. | ||
| There is a lot of talks in progress. | ||
| We are working this process, and I'm very proud of my House Freedom Caucus colleagues for that. | ||
| We are working a process to build the case and prepare the case to impeach Joe Biden. | ||
| And I'm excited that they were willing to discuss that with me when we were all together in Washington. | ||
| We had a very long meeting about it, and I'm very proud of them for willing to take this on. | ||
| But they're also willing to go further, and I'm thrilled about that, too. | ||
| We have to get rid of Blinken. | ||
| We have to get rid of Austin. | ||
| We have to get rid of Milley. | ||
| We have to get rid of Kamala Harris. | ||
| All of these people are complicit And these crimes against the United States of America, they are complicit in this dereliction of duty. | ||
| They are complicit in tearing American military down, dishonoring them, causing disgrace to our entire country, and leaving over 50,000 Americans right now in Afghanistan. | ||
| Here's what everyone needs to understand. | ||
| Only 4,000 Americans have gotten out of Afghanistan. | ||
| So when you see those numbers on television, You can do the math. | ||
| Only 4,000 Americans. | ||
| Then you can subtract whatever number that they claim to know on the television. | ||
| Those are not American citizens. | ||
| Those are Afghans, and they're supposedly allies, but I can't imagine this vetting process has been very good. | ||
| None of these Afghan allies should make it to our homeland, to the United States of America, until they are perfectly vetted and they are known to be allies that helped our forces, our military, over the past 18 years. We do not need Taliban or ISIS or Al Qaeda or any kind of radical Islamic terrorists in the United States. We already have enough of those and one of them unfortunately is in Congress. So it is imperative that we step forward and | ||
| do our duty not only as members of Congress but as citizens of the United States of America. | ||
| Protect our homeland. | ||
| And we have to get out, get this regime out of power, who are nothing but communists. | ||
| And they showed us exactly who they are through this budget and infrastructure deal. | ||
| And so I'm pushing everybody. | ||
| Sometimes it's uncomfortable. | ||
| We have hard conversations, but I believe the job must be done. | ||
| Real quickly, you said that a couple things to go through here. | ||
| You said some of your colleagues are angry with you. | ||
| Why would a Republican, a conservative, a populist, a nationalist, why would anybody be angry with you, ma'am? | ||
| Well, they claim that I went too fast, that I rushed. | ||
| They say that case needed to be built. | ||
| But here's what I know. | ||
| I understand building a case. | ||
| I know there's a legal process, but we have to get the ball rolling and there's no reason to sit and wait. | ||
| Here's the situation, Steve. | ||
| Every single person watching this show right now wants to impeach Joe Biden. | ||
| Every single Republican voter across the country wants to impeach Joe Biden. | ||
| So Republicans in Congress have to get on board with this process, build the case, start doing the work, and figure out how to get this done and impeach Joe Biden. | ||
| Because day by day, the situation grows worse in Afghanistan. | ||
| At any time, there could be some sort of terrorist attack on the airport. | ||
| At any time, we may see videos of Americans being beheaded. | ||
| There's already rumors coming out. | ||
| Now, these are unverified, but there's already rumors coming out that there has been several American missionary Christian families killed. | ||
| Now, if this is the case and we have to get to that point before we're unwilling, Before we're willing to impeach Joe Biden. | ||
| Well, I can't, I can't stand that. | ||
| I don't want to get to that point to be willing to impeach Joe Biden. | ||
| Two members of Congress flew over there. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And by the way, one Seth Moulton, who's a war hero from the battle of Najaf is a super progressive Democrat. | ||
| former Marine captain, I think, Lieutenant, and the other was the Congressman, the former Army guy from Michigan, a Republican, they came back and said, correct me if I'm wrong, they said, the Americans wouldn't get out if we went all the way to September 11th. Is Joe Biden looking right at the American people in the eye and lying to them? | ||
| Is this a bald-faced lie that Joe Biden's saying? Joe Biden doesn't have the mental capacity to decide what he wants to eat for lunch. These Americans are going to be left, not just several hundred, thousands, tens of thousands of Americans are going to be left and stranded over there. | ||
| As a matter of fact, what everyone needs to fully understand is the last evacuation planes are going to be set to leave on August 28th. | ||
| The remaining days will be our military leaving to be gone by Taliban's deadline by August 31st. | ||
| So what Joe Biden is doing is he is following a plan to leave Americans stranded in the worst hostage crisis in United States history. | ||
| Now, Peter Meyer and his progressive colleague that went to Afghanistan should have never done what they did. | ||
| They caused American military to have to put resources to protecting members of Congress That had no business going there in the first place. | ||
| Our American military should be dedicating all of their resources to getting Americans out. | ||
| Americans first, every single time. | ||
| It should only be Americans filling those planes and then Afghans, Afghan allies that need to be vetted on some other land outside the United States before they are brought here to our great country. | ||
| But Peter Meyer has plenty of money. | ||
| He should have filled a plane full of Americans if he was going to go over there and pull that kind of stunt. | ||
| You know, I appreciate any person's service in our military, but just because they served in our military doesn't mean then actually they should know better than anyone to have gone over there to Afghanistan and caused our military and State Department and Department of Defense to have to put resources to protect them and make their trip over there instead of all of their resources going to getting Americans out of Afghanistan. | ||
| Real quickly, you said 50,000 Americans. | ||
| Is that a number that you've heard from people? | ||
| Because I've heard it's 7,000 to 11,000, 10 to 15,000. | ||
| Did you mean to say 15,000? | ||
| Because you said 50. | ||
| Is your knowledge there's 50,000 Americans left there or 50,000 Afghan allies? | ||
| 50,000 Americans. | ||
| Over 50,000 Americans. | ||
| said 50 is your knowledge left there are 50,000 Afg Americans over 50,000 Ame have gotten out. And where Because that exacerbates this in no way. | ||
| Where have you heard the 50,000 from? | ||
| That is the number that we know. | ||
| Okay, fine. | ||
| I want to pivot quickly, and maybe we have to hold you over a minute. | ||
| What is this debacle when Bloomberg tells us that we've got $4 trillion on the balance sheet from the COVID crisis, $838 million an hour right over the last year? | ||
| Where do we stand right now with this transformational bill that will destroy the financial structure of the United States? | ||
| Where do we stand with that in Congress right now, Congressman? | ||
| Well, let's get very real about the headline to that article, Steve. | ||
| That article talked about the global economy. | ||
| So Bloomberg, that article that you're talking about, saying that this bill is $4 trillion and talking about $800 and something million per hour, is talking about the American taxpayer and what they have to pay per hour to keep the global economy going. | ||
| What that means is our government is fully infested right now in a global economy. | ||
| That is globalism, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| That is not the United States of America. | ||
| That's not an America First focus. | ||
| That's not focused on all your hard-earned tax dollars being used for our American interests. | ||
| That means that every single tax dollar that you pay to the IRS, the people in charge of the federal government, the people making decisions and ramming through communist policies in our already socialist government, are only focused on the world's global economy. | ||
| They are not focused on America's global economy like President Trump was, and like I am, and many other America First leaders. | ||
| They are focused on the world's global economy. | ||
| That is America last, and it should not stand, and we have to defeat those policies. | ||
| Congressman Taylor Greene, can you just hang on for one second? | ||
| Quick commercial break. | ||
| I just want to finish up with you on the other side. | ||

| It's time to cancel cancel culture. | ||
| Okay, we're joined by Congressman Marjorie Taylor Greene. | ||
| Congressman Greene, a catastrophic debacle in Central Asia, but almost as big a catastrophic debacle here in our nation's capital about a transformative legislation that we will not be able to come back from. | ||
| Where do we stand on this infrastructure, unpaid-for infrastructure bill over a trillion dollars and the $3.5 trillion social engineering program? | ||
| Congressman? | ||
| America stands in peril for those two bills. | ||
| So going into you heard me talking about these two bills, you've heard me screaming about them going into Monday. | ||
| Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden had had a plan to keep the three bills together. | ||
| Infrastructure, budget and HR for the federalization of our elections. | ||
| They wanted to pass them in one package, but there were about eight or so moderate Democrats that were fighting about the budget and refused to be a part of a part of passing the budget unless the infrastructure Deal was passed. | ||
| They wanted that passed, signed into law in order for them to vote for the budget. | ||
| Now, here's what happened. | ||
| You would not believe Monday night was a night like no other in the Capitol. | ||
| The House was open until nearly 2 o'clock in the morning. | ||
| Democrats were putting the screws to those moderate Democrats. | ||
| They were coming after them. | ||
| Pelosi was coming down hard. | ||
| Everybody was coming down hard on them. | ||
| Even Bill Clinton was making calls, whipping up votes. | ||
| So what does that tell you? | ||
| That tells you that this entire, uh, this, all these old Democrats like Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, Barack Obama, Joe Biden, they're all the same. | ||
| And here's who, here's who they're the same as. | ||
| They're exactly the same as the so-called progressive squad who were really communist. | ||
| So Monday night in the Capitol, they came down on those moderate Democrats. | ||
| Tuesday morning, there was a whole different plan. | ||
| They broke the bills apart. | ||
| They pushed the infrastructure bill. | ||
| Back to September, like September 28th is when we're supposed to vote on it. | ||
| That's the $1.2 trillion infrastructure deal that is not infrastructure at all. | ||
| It's a bunch of woke gender identity politics wrapped up into phase one of the Green New Deal and handing over America's ability to drive to China by building infrastructure and EV charging stations all over the United States. | ||
| Now the budget, the $3.5 trillion budget, Did pass on Tuesday. | ||
| But here's what everyone in America needs to understand. | ||
| This isn't about being a Republican or a Democrat. | ||
| You need to understand that they passed, Congress passed, the Democrats, a $3.5 trillion empty budget. | ||
| Completely empty. | ||
| They passed a shell promising, pledging to spend $3.5 trillion in a budget. | ||
| This budget, this empty shell, now goes back to every single House committee And they will pack it full with the Green New Deal, Medicare for All, and more woke identity politics that are socialism, but that will be pushed into place through communist tactics. | ||
| This is something out of a nightmare. | ||
| I can't even believe that it actually happens in our so-called free country. | ||
| We're not a free country anymore, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| That is a complete lie. | ||
| We're on the brink of destruction, and it's at the hands of these communist Democrats That have been planning this all along. | ||
| I mean, we're talking going back nearly a hundred years. | ||
| This has been a process, but this is in these house committees. | ||
| Yeah, go ahead. | ||
| No, go ahead. | ||
| Go ahead. | ||
| And the house committees, this is where they're going to pack it in. | ||
| And Republicans will have no voice. | ||
| Remember, I've told you over and over again, the reason why me getting kicked off of my committees was a blessing and a gift because it gave me all this time to work even harder and work against them. | ||
| But Republicans have no voice in these committees. | ||
| Democrats run every single committee. | ||
| And so that's why they will get to pick and choose everything they want and stick it into that $3.5 trillion budget, probably make it worse than the Senate version that we actually had to vote on and look at and analyze and that I told you about. | ||
| Then here it is. | ||
| There it is. | ||
| It will be a $3.5 trillion budget that goes back to the Senate. | ||
| Through reconciliation, and it can pass with just a majority vote, the filibuster does nothing to stop it. | ||
| Okay, we'll get into all the logistics of the process. | ||
| One thing I ask, his numbers are imploding. | ||
| They're in 32% of independents in this country approve of what he's doing. | ||
| Biden has zero political capital effect, negative political capital. | ||
| How can the Republicans on Capitol Hill start to use this to fight this? | ||
| We got about a minute or so. | ||
| What are you calling for the Republicans to do to stop this? | ||
| I am calling for Republicans to stop waiting. | ||
| I'm calling for my colleagues and And Republican members of Congress to start the impeachment process. | ||
| There is nothing to wait for. | ||
| The American people are already ahead of Republicans in Congress. | ||
| We have to work as hard as we possibly can. | ||
| Even if we're right now, we are out of session. | ||
| We are at home in our districts where we're doing district work. | ||
| We have to double down and work even harder and work through this process and get Joe Biden impeached. | ||
| We have to fire his administration because they are feckless leaders and they have failed us. | ||
| They're America last and we have to put America first and this means Republicans have to move on this opportunity faster than they have ever moved moved on any opportunity ever before. | ||
| It has to be done now because if the coin was flipped Steve. | ||
| If this was President Trump, they not only would impeach him, they would have him in jail and he would never see the light of day again. | ||
| They would arrest many members of his administration. | ||
| It would be, it would be, I don't even know what it would be. | ||
| It would look like communist China. | ||
| These people would disappear, but we need to move on this. | ||
| Republicans in Congress have to take advantage of this crisis. | ||
| We've got 30 seconds. | ||
| How do people get to you? | ||
| We'll get all the congressman's numbers up. | ||
| How do they get to you? | ||
| How do they follow you? | ||
| and he's not even mentally competent out of the White House. | ||
| We've got 30 seconds. How do people get to you? We'll get all the congressman's numbers up. | ||
| How do they get to you? How do they follow you? That's what people want to know. | ||
| Go on, get her. | ||
