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

Because if you don't, then the worst happens.

War Room.
Pandemic.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Okay, welcome.
It's Thursday, 9 September, Year of Our Lord 2021.
You're in the War Room.
We're live now with 85 million downloads on the podcast.
And by the way, the podcast on absolute fire.
Can't believe the number of downloads every day.
It's pretty shocking.
Pleasantly shocking.
Of course, we're live everywhere.
We want to thank all of our partners, whether it's John Frederick's Radio Network or Real America's Voice.
The streaming on cable, DISH, everywhere.
We meet you where you are.
We've got numerous What a dozen live chats going on our forums at any one time.
And we have people monitoring those trying to put everything in there to keep you updated.
Okay.
Joe Biden's going to address the nation at five o'clock, right?
Five o'clock p.m.
And it's about mandates.
He just announced that all federal workers have to get vaccinated immediately, right?
He's going to put this is all about forcing vaccinations.
They're going to put the entire pressure of the federal government, not just against our troops and federal workers, but they're going to do everything on airlines or everything possible.
To back up these companies, they're going to start doing forced vaccinations and even in schools.
So you watch the mandates.
This is their misdirection play.
Remember, on the evening of September 30th at midnight on 30 September, the government runs out of money for next year.
The fiscal year starts.
They don't have a budget.
They don't have anything, right?
They're scrambling around a town.
They can't get it approved.
The polling, there's polling out today from no labels, this moderate group.
That shows, you know, even their suburban voters, I think it's 39-62, are, you know, opposed to, want to take a strategic pause in the spending.
They're totally out of control.
As I said, the theory of the case for us, I think we've had a pretty good track record here, is that now they've got to buy off the American people because everything's spinning out of control.
On 15 October, the entire United States government runs out of money.
We start defaulting on government securities.
Those bonds we sold to the Japanese insurance companies, the bonds we sold to the Chinese Communist Party, the bonds we sold to the Gulf Emirates, guess what?
We're going to start defaulting on those.
And so the two big dates, 30 September for the annual, and that's government shutdown, bring it on, and 15 October with the debt ceiling.
You've got the leverage.
We're going to find us in the fog of war.
That's what's important.
Everything else, they're spinning around.
He's going to come out today on the mishandling of the CCP virus of COVID-19.
They're in complete meltdown on that right now.
We're hearing the Mu variant may be vaccine resistance.
They're not going to put that case out to the American people.
Not going to start talking about it.
What Fauci is warning about now is a monster variant because guess what?
It's a pandemic of the unvaccinated.
The unvaccinated, that is a proxy for evangelical Christians and traditional Catholics, right?
So they're coming for you, okay?
We've got a lot to go through.
We've got the Canvas situation across the nation that's heating up.
A Pennsylvania hearing today.
The subpoena is going to fly after it.
DOJ is going to come.
DOJ is scrambling to sue the right to life movement in Texas.
So, there's a lot to get to.
More than that, we are jammed.
I want to start, though, with one of my favorite people, former Congressman Michelle Bachman.
Now Dean down at the Regent University, one of the great schools in our country down in Virginia Beach, Virginia.
She always steps up whether it was for the for election fraud.
She did this symposium months and months ago, I think five or six months ago, that really was one of the great driving intellectual forces that brought a lot of lawyers together.
Talked about the seriousness of the of election fraud on 3 November.
Get to the bottom of that.
She's done another whole day symposium today Steve, thank you so much.
Yes, I want to invite everyone right now to join on our free virtual conference.
It's already started.
You're not too late.
Please join it.
Thank you very much for joining us today.
Tell us exactly what you're going on and how can people get access to it?
michele bachmann ▲ ● ▼
Steve, thank you so much.
Yes, I wanna invite everyone right now to join on our free virtual conference.
It's already started, you're not too late.
Please join it.
By the close of business today, we'll have the entire conference archived so people can go back and watch it from the very beginning.
For instance, I already had an interview on this morning with Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.
He was absolutely brilliant.
You could see the anguish.
You could hear it in his voice and see it in his eyes.
He had already laid out the platform for peace in Afghanistan and for a quick, smooth withdrawal.
And he was anguished at what he has seen going on.
We have Bernie Kerik coming up shortly.
So it's an absolutely fabulous event.
Please come and join us now.
Just type into your computer, Regent, R-E-G-E-N-T, regent.edu slash 911, regent.edu forward slash 911.
It's an all day fabulous conference.
At Regent University, we're committed to telling the truth.
This is not politically correct.
It is unvarnished.
What Washington, D.C. did wrong in dealing with the global war on terror is they got the premises wrong of who the terrorists are.
They created a fantasy view that doesn't exist of the Islamic terrorists, that this is truly a religion of peace, that these are just awkward, crazy guys who got it wrong.
That isn't it at all.
This has been going on for centuries.
Their motivation, they tell us every time they pull a terrorist act.
They're not lone wolves.
They're known wolves.
We know who these people are.
And they have a very clear agenda.
They're sincere.
They're authentic in their terrorist actions.
They want to destroy us.
They want to take us down because they want to take over the United States and turn it into a caliphate, just as they want to for the rest of the world.
We need to listen to what they say and then we'd understand better how to defeat them.
That's what Sun Tzu said.
Know yourself and know your enemy.
Here in the United States, under critical race theory, we're being taught that the United States is an oppressor nation.
And that we aren't the victim.
We were the victim 20 years ago in the September 11th terror attacks.
And now here we are again today with woke generals running Afghanistan.
And we're seeing the collapse of Afghanistan.
And it's so bad, Steve, that now the politicians in DC are scrambling.
They recognize that leaving all these Americans behind has really killed Joe Biden's numbers.
That's how sick these people are.
And so they're trying to scramble right now and get us to not pay any more attention to Afghanistan because they understand Americans are paying attention to Afghanistan.
They don't want us to.
They want us to pay attention to them giving us more goodies so that they can pass their voter fraud bill.
That's all the infrastructure bill is about.
It's a big pig of a bill.
That they want to attach legalization of voter fraud measures to so that they can get reelected in the midterms.
These are the most selfish monsters you've ever seen running Washington D.C.
And it's why we can't have them pass this phony non-infrastructure bill so that they can get reelected by legalizing voter fraud, because they're going to continue to get innocent Americans killed like they have in Afghanistan, and they're putting our nation at risk.
And they've toppled our superpower status in the meantime.
These are monsters.
Monsters.
And so I want to welcome people and invite people to come now for this vital conference that we're putting on today at regent.edu forward slash 911.
It's free.
Just come on right now.
It's broadcasting.
It's on for seven to eight hours today.
It's a deep dive.
And into really what America, the tragic mistakes politicians have made in America to get us to the point where we are.
There's also very good hope in this as well from other experts.
So come and join us for this.
If you missed the beginning at the close of business today, maybe like five o'clock or so Eastern time, we'll archive the entire eight hour conference and you'll be able to also see additional footage, about 12 hours of footage I think we're going to try to put it up in the box as the broadcast goes on.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
We're going to have it in the box so people can watch what's going on and dip in and out of it.
It's a very important symposium.
I want to just, before we let you go back, Dean, you were here for some of the great fights, you know, years ago on budgets and shutdowns and all that.
The way to stop the monsters Is to cut them off from the cash.
Cash is their oxygen.
Their oxygen.
And this is why nobody wants to explain it.
You don't see the Republicans out there all the time.
Where are they on Fox?
You don't see these guys banging on, you know, banging things telling you exactly what's going on.
On the midnight on the 30th, with no budget passed, the government does not, runs out of money and cannot fund itself.
More importantly, the United States of America on October 15th, two weeks later, In kind of a balance sheet issue, we default on government securities.
We got them.
This is a double whammy.
You call them monsters?
They are, and they're boxed in.
What they need, the only way they can survive, is to have feckless Republicans blink.
And let this happen.
Talk to us about these governments, because they used to always say, oh, Michelle Bachman is one of the problems.
She's always sitting there talking about government shutdowns.
Government shutdowns work when it's driven by Democrats.
Remember, they're in power.
They control the White House.
They control the House.
They control the Senate.
It's their game.
The way the city is structured, it's their game, right?
It's their game.
So if the government gets shut down, it's because of their haplessness.
Is that not correct, Congressman Bachman?
michele bachmann ▲ ● ▼
It absolutely is their haplessness.
And the problem is both Democrat and Republican because they've let this spending spree go on.
The thing is, this party will end.
That's what everybody needs to understand.
This party will end either in a very Hopeful or in a good way where we cinch in our belt and we actually become normal because actually we wouldn't have as many problems as we have today if we wouldn't be spending money on all of this nonsense that's killing our kids and hurting our economy and hurting our businesses.
Government ends up doing more trouble than they help with all of their spending.
And now Joe Biden.
I mean, listen to this.
He wants to spend six trillion more dollars.
Six trillion.
It wasn't that long ago that the entire United States budget was $2 trillion.
When I left Congress in 2015, the entire budget was $2 trillion for the year.
Now just these two bills that he wants to pass are $6 trillion.
That's three years worth of spending.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
And the only way that they're doing this... By the way, people have to understand, this is in addition to the $5.2 trillion you're going to do every year.
You've got $3.5 trillion of that is transfer payments.
You've got another discretionary.
This is on top of.
That's why they need the debt relief.
That's why they need the debt ceiling release.
Ladies and gentlemen, we got them.
We got them.
They're absolutely cornered like rats, okay?
And they're going to have everything.
And this Biden speech tonight, or this afternoon, when he lays out the pandemic, the issues in the pandemic, they're going to need, they're going to sit, they're going to need another bridging device, as we've talked about, another amount of massive spending to get through this.
This is what he's going to argue.
Oh, the pandemic's not over.
You know, we didn't mishandle Delta variant, all this.
We need more cash.
They need your money.
Your money.
And they can't get it.
Here's the thing.
They're absolutely trapped like rats in a corner.
They can't get out of here.
And if you cut them off, you cut the oxygen off, you want to get them to pay attention?
Cut the money off.
They cut the money off, they start to listen.
Okay?
Michelle Bachman, you have fought this fight so many times.
We're going to re-enlist you.
I know today it's 9-11.
And by the way, nothing could be more important than to discuss the terrorist super-state Of people we defeated on the background, on the battleground.
ISIS, the Taliban, Al-Qaeda, all defeated by American troops.
American blood went to defeat them all.
And now they're a terrorist super state because of Joe Biden, the globalists, and the progressive left.
Congressman Bachman, one more time.
How do people get to the seminar?
How can they watch it?
And if they miss some of the live stuff, how do they get to the rerun?
michele bachmann ▲ ● ▼
You can watch it from the beginning.
We're in the middle of the live broadcast right now, but once the broadcast concludes about 430 this afternoon, then we'll post the entire conference and anytime you can watch it on demand after that.
So go to regent.edu forward slash 911.
You'll watch.
I'm interviewing.
New York City Police Commissioner Bernie Karik right now about his thoughts on national security in Afghanistan, but also on what happened and transpired on 9-1-1.
What you're going to see by a lot of these people I'm interviewing, Steve, is we had real men and real women in charge on September 11, 2001.
Thank God we had some people who were adults in the room who knew what to do.
Unlike the monsters who are in the ruling class, who are making decisions that are literally getting people killed today in Washington, D.C.
It's why we have to have regime change and immediately in Washington, D.C.
And you start by cutting off their oxygen supply, which is money.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Money.
Congressman Bachman, Dean Bachman, thank you very much.
I want everybody to pile into this thing and watch it today.
Thank you very much for doing this in the War Room.
michele bachmann ▲ ● ▼
Okay, thanks again.
Bye-bye.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Regime change. It's coming and the numbers are against them.
They're even losing the suburbs.
We're going to bring in Pedro Gonzalez next from Chronicles Magazine, American Mind.
Going to talk to us about this regime and how do you change it next.

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.
chuck todd ▲ ● ▼
Do you think though that 3.5 is a number you can live with?
Or is it something that you think maybe it ought to be shaved down a little bit?
Or should it be bigger?
unidentified
I think it's going to be wholly dependent on the programs.
Of course, at this point in time, the different committees of jurisdiction are creating the contours of the package, the Build Back Better Act.
I serve on the Agriculture Committee.
We have our markup on Friday to see what it is that we're going to be pushing towards this package as part of the full creation of Congress working in concert.
And so it is for me very program dependent.
I think that we should always be very thoughtful in the full dollar amounts that we are looking to spend and how we're looking to pay for these programs.
So much of the decision making that I'll be making is what are we investing in and how are we paying for it?
chuck todd ▲ ● ▼
Art, I was just going to ask you that.
How much of this plan has to be paid for in your mind?
50%, two thirds, whatever the number is, or all of it?
unidentified
I think that we've made some extraordinary investments in our COVID response over this past year and a half.
We've made investments in our economy and in our communities that were vital, and they've had real impacts on the Where we are with our debt and deficits.
And so, as we're looking long-term, I do think that we should be focused on paying for these investments that we are making.
Long-term investments in the economic recovery of our country, but we should be looking at how to pay for it because I want our generation to be the ones paying for it as we plan for the future.
chuck todd ▲ ● ▼
Right, okay.
Will you vote for this, though, if it has some deficit spending?
And does it just depend on how much?
unidentified
This bill is not even written yet, but my focus and what I have been advocating for is to ensure that we are responsibly paying for longer term investments that we're looking to make here.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Okay, that is Congressman Spanberger in Virginia 7.
She's an absolutely central vote.
These are the swing districts that go back and forth.
I think she won by 1.8%.
I'm going to connect some dots here.
We're going to get Pedro Gonzalez.
We've got Darren Beattie.
We've got Todd Bensman.
We've got Jack Posobiec, Liz Beckett down in Arkansas.
This is Murderer's Row today.
But I've got to take a little time to make sure.
Just follow up.
Remember, this show is not episodic.
This show is a narrative, right?
It's like watching a TV thing.
You got to watch it.
You know, you don't have to watch it, but it continues on, right?
It's not episodic.
It's not you just watch one, not watch the other.
We started a pandemic from impeachment on in mid-January 2020, months ahead of everybody else, and we were mocked and ridiculed.
But at the time, the theory of the case of why we did the show that the pandemic is going to trigger an economic crisis, not just supply chain, but but an economic crisis.
It's going to have a it's going to be a massive drop in aggregate demand that's going to have to be bridged.
That's going to trigger a capital markets crisis.
That's going to trigger a geopolitical crisis.
unidentified
OK.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
This regime.
He's got his back up to the wall, because not just it's simple, it's radical policies.
Those are bad enough.
But it's complete incompetence on executing anything.
And so now these... Congressman Bachman calls them monsters.
I just call them rats.
They're trapped in a corner of their own making.
And now they're jammed up.
They need cash.
It's not like any mafia.
They need cash in the worst way possible, and they have two structural things that are happening to them that have them boxed into a corner.
Okay?
And only by your good graces, and what I mean by that, Republicans that you've given money to, people you've rung doorbells for, people that you've supported, are the only ones that can acquiesce to this.
Because Spanberger is a Democrat.
She's a moderate Democrat, and she's a former CIA officer.
Donna Rich from my hometown.
She does not want to have her political career ended.
You saw the long face of Chuck Todd.
He kept asking her, will you vote for it?
We have to pay for it.
We have to pay for it.
This is a $3.5 trillion, right?
This strategic pause.
If Denver can get up, there's another poll.
We've shown you all the polling on Biden and we told you he was going to collapse.
But the reason he's collapsing so quickly is that he didn't get the 81 million votes on November 3rd, right?
He actually got closer to what Clinton got.
That's why he's dropping down to Clinton-like levels, because Clinton only had 43% in 92.
That's why they're all saying he's at Clinton levels.
Why?
And not Obama levels, given how hapless Obama was in his first nine months in the beginning of the Tea Party.
This poll, though, is absolutely brutal.
Why is Congressman Spanberger, who basically wins by getting the inner city of Richmond to vote for, and the suburbs?
The Trump-hating moms out in the suburbs to vote for, put up No Holds, which is a, not No Holds, it's a No Labels, excuse me, No Labels, is this moderate group that wants everybody to come together in a kumbaya.
They did a poll, and the poll is on Axios, and it's jumping around.
The key number, if we can get it up, does Denver have it?
unidentified
As soon as they can put it up.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
39%, is this about Manchin's strategic pause?
Like, let's not do that.
39%.
The support in the suburbs, the Democratic-controlled suburbs, whether that's in Omaha or Charlotte or Richmond or Washington DC, all these suburbs are the same, right?
They're kind of uniparty suburbs, right?
Hating on Trump.
Although now some of the women out there, some of the moms and dads are realizing in Loudoun County with CRT, the mask mandates, and the forced vaccinations, they're having a great awakening.
Yes, I use the phrase, a great awakening.
Let me give you another great awakening.
Let's get it down to cash money, okay?
Only 39% of the suburbs support this effort.
They understand something's terribly wrong.
One, they question the competence of these guys, but they understand this thing is spinning out of control.
And they don't want to burden, because it's 3.5 trillion on top of everything else.
On top of everything else.
And we got them.
30 September, government's going to shut down because they have no money.
The only way they get around this is a continuing resolution.
And this continuing resolution is going to try to throw all kinds of stuff in there.
We're going to have Todd Bensman on here.
Stephen Miller did a great job last night in his Twitter feed about what they're doing with the Afghan refugees, which is basically giving them the red carpet treatment.
By the way, they should have the red carpet treatment in Qatar and Kuwait and in the region where they should stay because they're going to go back and take their country back.
Not getting a lottery ticket to come here to the United States of America.
No matter how much they work with us over there, it's their country.
Last time I looked, right?
That's what a nationalist does.
It's your country.
You're going to stay in the region.
You're going to fight for it.
You're going to go back and take it back from the Taliban.
This is everything.
The numbers are so against this guy.
And that's why you're going to see all kind of fog of war here.
You're going to have all kind of spinning.
You can't get away from the ironclad math.
They have no support for this.
Let me repeat this.
The only way they get out of this corner is if Moderate and these squish Republicans, the Uniparty, if the Uniparty lets them out of the corner, because now they're trapped, and they're double-trapped.
And the actual debt ceiling trap's a bigger trap than the first trap, but they're both.
Okay?
We've got this.
We told you from the beginning, when everybody wanted to curl up in the fetal position, oh, it's over, they're gonna have nine new states, 50 judges, all this stuff, I said, crap.
Put your shoulder to the wheel.
Become a force multiplier.
Let's get out there.
This regime can be taken down.
And by God, you've done it.
And now we got it.
It's because of this audience.
I don't have more to say about this.
I'm going to be non-stop on this because we got it right now.
We have it.
You saw Chuck Todd there trying to beg her.
Please, please tell me.
Give me the number.
What are you going to pay?
What are you going to do for it?
I also want to say something.
She keeps saying investments.
When they say investments, that's a lie.
That was to bridge the drop in aggregate.
All this stuff, all this trillions of dollars for COVID relief was basically to make payroll and to pay rent.
Show me where the investments are.
That's why I say, look in Afghanistan.
Where's the $2 trillion?
Where are the roads?
Where are the schools?
Where are the schools for girls?
Where are the hospitals?
Where's your $2 trillion in Afghanistan?
The $28 trillion of face amount of debt?
That's only the face amount of the debt, right?
The $28 trillion, look around.
Where is it?
It's spent for operations.
That's not investment.
It's spent for operations.
It's very different.
Think of it as a business.
You're not making an investment in capital equipment, something in capital.
That's where this phony infrastructure goes first.
Oh, it's 1.25 trillion infrastructure.
That's only a couple of hundred billion dollars.
The rest of it's just more nonsense.
And the 3.5 trillion is just more operating, just paid for operations.
No investments.
Where's the investments?
I look around other countries, they're making hard investments in hard infrastructure.
Let me bring in Pedro Gonzalez.
We're backing up a little bit here because I get on my soapbox today.
I gotta just make sure.
In the fog of war, you're gonna be spun every way.
Two dates.
Put it in your calendar.
Midnight on the 30th and October 15th.
October 15th, we default on government securities.
Okay?
September 30th, government shutdown.
And everything is going to be around this to spin out of it.
To have misdirection plays and have these feckless Republicans genuflect in this regime.
Okay?
Once again, let me be brutally frank.
We got this.
And here's the negotiating response.
Oh, we want it?
No.
How about this?
No.
No.
We're not interested.
We're not interested in what you're selling.
We're not interested in your plan.
We're not interested in that.
unidentified
No.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
And we got the backup.
Hey, let me turn to No Labels.
That's not Trafalgar Group.
That's not Richard Barris.
That's not Tony Fabrizio.
Right?
That's not John McLaughlin.
This is No Labels.
These are the squishy kumbaya guys.
The buried lead is in the suburbs, the Trump-hating suburbs of this country.
Only 39% support him.
They want a strategic policy.
You know strategic policy, that's a fancy term for, hey, let's not do this.
Because you're going to transform this country.
Remember, they're going to transform it through the balance sheet of the Federal Reserve and through what they're going to do with the federal budget.
And once that's done, you ain't coming back from that.
Right?
You may get CRT out of the schools.
We can do all this other stuff where you get these of the laws down in Texas.
The DOJ is coming down on the heartbeat bill.
Hey, that you can unwind.
You can go after Roe v. Wade.
We can go up to CRT.
They changed.
They start.
They get this six trillion dollars, which is just the beginning.
You ain't never coming back ever.
OK, game over.
Short commercial break.
Pedro Gonzalez, Darren Beattie, Todd Bensman, Jack Posobiec, Liz York.
Wow.
I want to watch this.
I think I'm going to just sit here.
That's murderer's row right now.
All killers.
All next in The War Room.

Just a really, a really profound thinker about where America is and where America is in this fight against the globalists.
Pedro Gonzalez, So Pedro, before we get to, I want to get to your piece on Afghanistan, and we are jammed for time because I stood on my, I got on my soapbox too long.
Give us your assessment of where we are with the Biden regime right now, right?
With, with how they've handled, you know, their incompetence in handling things, their radical policies, as we're now 10 months into this thing, where do you think we stand?
pedro gonzalez ▲ ● ▼
Well, something that you'll hear from Republicans and conservatives is that the United States government has been humiliated under Biden.
My view of that is good.
I don't think there's actually an easy way or a better way to convince people that the regime is bad, that it actually hates them as much as it hates Afghans, than witnessing everything that you're seeing now.
From the spending deal to the Afghan refugee resettlement, and you could put that in quotations because it's more of like, no one agreed to this, no one agreed to resettling them, right?
Same thing with the southern border and with what we're seeing right now Or at least what's coming to light.
We knew what was going on in Afghanistan.
The federal government knew that the war was a loss, that it was lost years ago.
And they knew actually much, much worse than that.
But they kept going.
And they kept telling the public that not only were we winning, but everything was going well.
We were building democracy.
That is a complete lie.
And unfortunately, and I think that it's understandable that it makes people uncomfortable, but I don't think there was actually a better way to convince people that This whole thing is built on lies, and it hates you as much as it hates other people abroad.
You're seeing it now.

What, um, for people that are getting the Great Awakening, which they're coming to this conclusion, right, and they understand, and that's why I think you're seeing Hispanic working class in the Rio Grande Valley, you know, one of the big holdouts in this Pelosi thing is these congressmen down there, because they see the numbers with working class Hispanics.
As people Get to this great awakening, that this is what the globalists want, and it's now time to take a stand.
What is your, and by the way, the peace in American mind we're gonna put up in the live chat, let's get up on the screen, it's absolutely incredible.
What is your path, when you tell people to start thinking about this, when they get this construct and start to really understand, what is your recommended path out of here?
pedro gonzalez ▲ ● ▼
I think that Trump gave us At least in 2016, a mandate that resonated broadly.
If you look at this study by the New America Foundation in 2015, they found that the largest electorate in this country was what they defined as populist.
People that want to either keep immigration levels the same or restrict them, and in terms of spending, either reduce or keep it the same.
I think this electorate remains untapped.
These are people that are basically scattered between both parties because the other party really serves them.
And they view things like immigration as an economic issue because, a cultural and economic one, but economic in the sense that it affects their jobs and their wages.
These are people that are, regardless of whether they're Republicans or Democrats, they don't like the idea of spending two trillion dollars building democracy in Afghanistan when every road that we build over there, every school that we build over there that gets blown up or torn out is a road or a school that could have been built here.
So I actually think the mandate, the way forward is really easy.
You just look back to the issues that were successful in 2016 that made Democrats swing for Trump and then figure out how to articulate these issues better and how to go forward with them.
The Republican Party has no interest in this for obvious reasons, because it conflicts with neoconservatism, which I think is still unfortunately the dominant ideology of the GOP.
You're seeing that right now with Afghanistan.
The Republicans are saying two things.
We don't like the way that the withdrawal was done, but we're not necessarily against it.
But we're going to trust the Biden administration to effectively vet and resettle all of these refugees.
You see how incoherent that is on its face?
And at least guys like Lindsey Graham are saying, more honestly, we should have never left.
This is what Kevin McCarthy said.
This is what Dan Crenshaw said.
And at least Dan Crenshaw is supposed to be the face of the new GOP, right?
The better GOP.
And he's telling you, actually, it was a mistake to leave.
And so the mask is off for most of the Republican Party in the sense that they were telling you for the last four years that they're populist and they've changed.
Even the old birds like Graham and McCarthy had come around.
They haven't.
They don't want to change.
And neoconservatism, the prevailing ideology of the GOP, dovetails neatly into the broader neoliberal project that is basically the ideology of the United States regime.
The ideology of inviting and invading the world.
There's disagreement over the details, but there's actually not a lot of disagreement over the fundamentals.
And that's the easiest way to understand it is just the term uniparty, that at the end of the day, there's not a whole lot of difference between Democrats and Republicans.
Democrats just want to use a softer touch when we go to Afghanistan or whatever.
Republicans are more of the view that we'll actually, we just need to drone strike the place.
But all this stuff comes home.
What an empire, what a regime is willing to do in Afghanistan, it's going to do in Appalachia.
And you're seeing that.
For the last few years, overtly, we've been talking about half of this country as if they're insurgents.
And even explicitly, you've got former Bush staffers referring to January 6 as worse than 9-11.
You've got people that are comparing those who are maybe not even anti-vax or just not comfortable with getting the vaccine, referring to those people as Taliban. There was a former Obama official who said that people that refuse the vaccine are basically just like the suicide bombers who killed 13 U.S. troops on August 26th, that they go into crowds and they detonate and kill people. You see this, and the Republican Party, for all of its rhetoric, what are they doing to stop this?
What are they doing to prevent the national security apparatus that they helped build for the wars on terror in Iraq and Afghanistan?
What are they doing to stop it from being turned on American citizens?
Well, they're not doing a whole lot as far as I can see.

Do you agree that one way we can actually flush out the Republicans, the neoliberal, neocon Republicans, is with this coming, on September 30th, when the government runs out of money, because they're going to try to do one of these funky CRs that kicks the can down the road and add all kind of amnesty and everything that to it, and the debt ceiling?
Are these the two?
Because at the end of the day, when the regime doesn't have cash, when they don't have access to the deplorables checkbook, it is deplorables.
Remember, if you can't sell the bonds, which they can't do enough, they can't raise taxes enough, or there's no growth, so tax revenues increase because of growth, they've got to print money.
And print money is just putting it on your shoulders.
That's not free.
That's on the full faith and credit of the United States, which happens to be the deplorables.
Is this the time to have this fight?
Is this the time to make sure that we know who's on what side?
pedro gonzalez ▲ ● ▼
I think it's a good indicator.
It's a good way to see who is and is not aware of what time it is and who simply doesn't care.
But we've had these fights before.
We've had a lot of moments, actually, where we've said, this is it.
This is where we will finally ferret out the rhinos and figure out who's on our side and who isn't.
But we never actually seem to learn from these things, and it's not clear why.
It might be, I think, because we We'll tell ourselves that, but then we'll quickly turn to focusing on all the crazy stuff Democrats are doing and all the stuff that the woke people are doing, and we'll get distracted and forget about the fact that oftentimes your worst enemies are the people that are standing beside you and behind you.
And I think that's the truest thing for the GOP, is that we'll say, you know, this is it.
We're going to dig our heels in and get rid of the rhinos.
And then Biden will say something or do something crazy.
And often it is crazy.
Or we'll hear about something like Portland is going to boycott travel and commerce with Texas or something like that.
And we'll get distracted by those things.
And then suddenly we'll start warming up or not.
No, I should say I should not say warming up because we'll never warm up to Mitch McConnell.
But we'll lose sight of the fact that guys like McConnell and McCarthy, they're your enemies as much as Joe Biden is just because they're Republican.
It doesn't change that fact.
And after all this time, they have not fundamentally changed their minds.
And so, it's a kind of cycle of outrage.
We get angry, we say, this is it, and then we forget.
Because we get angry at something else.
So, it's really on us.

Pedro, how do people track you?
How do they follow you on social media?
How do they get to your writings?
Because this is a guy that you've got to get... You're not going to agree with everything he says, but I've got to tell you, one of the most powerful thinkers in this country.
How do people get to you?

Okay, let's get all that up in the live chat and on the site.
Okay, Pedro, thank you very much for joining us today.
Controversial as always, sir.
Thank you.
pedro gonzalez ▲ ● ▼
Thanks for having me.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Okay, I want to pivot.
Do I have both Darren Beattie and I have Todd Bensman?
Let me bring in, I'll tell you what, I'm going to ask Todd to hold on because I'm going to go through the refugee thing in a second.
Do I have Darren Beattie?
Is Darren up?
Darren, I'm going to get to Todd in a second because he's going to drill down into some details here, as only Todd Bensman can.
But you just heard Pedro Gonzalez.
Give us your assessment, sir, of where we are right now, drafting off of Pedro.
darren j beattie ▲ ● ▼
Well I was just able to hear the very tail end of his remarks so you give me just a bit additional context and I'd be happy to opine.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Well it's about where it's it's it's where it's he's anti-regime and he says look what you got in the Republican Party is they bought off in the Democrats the neoliberal economics and neocon in its uh in its uh in its national security uh direction and now's the time you know it's coming to high relief but Well, I think that's certainly true.
I think there's a lot of distraction.
darren j beattie ▲ ● ▼
things that take our eye off the ball that you gotta focus on if you're gonna go after the regime and stop it you know you've got to get focus on what the core beliefs are what's your thoughts sir well i think that's certainly true i think there's a lot of distraction i think there's a lot of smoke and mirrors and a lot of electoral politics is kinda fake and performative and it exists if anything to gin up a lot of anger, indignation, emotion, stir up
the masses and deplorables but take all of that potential energy and to dump it in the trash heap rather than use it towards something productive And that's where focus comes in.
And so I think to the extent that that's what he meant, it's absolutely true.
And that's where organization comes in.
That's where driving narratives come in.
All of these things help to provide the requisite focus to the very real, the very justified and the very powerful righteous indignation that uh... millions and millions of americans feel about how corrupt and evil uh... and really ridiculous our regime has become talk about that we got about a minute more hold your through the break Talk to us about what's on January 6th.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
More things are popping up.
They're starting to put the fences back up here in D.C.
because they're so worried about Matt Brainard's rally on the 18th.
Right.
That's going to be the new insurrection part 2.
What do you got, sir?
darren j beattie ▲ ● ▼
Well, I mean, the remarkable thing is it just shows, it shows two things.
It shows just how impoverished the imagination of our regime, the deep state, whatever you want to call it, actually is.
They continue to run the same script over and over.
We see this in a variety of dimensions.
They're running the same Cold War script right now.
They just have no imagination.
But the even more pathetic part is that more often than not, it actually works.
So they don't actually need more imagination that they have because they have a lockstep in the media and so forth.
So let's see if they're able to get away with it again.
I hope not.

Okay, let's go directly to Darren Beattie.
Darren, you get a new piece up on Revolver.
Tell us about it.
I know you're maniacally focused on January 6th, getting to the truth of this, about it was not a failure of intelligence, but it's a failed intelligence operation.
What do you got for us today?
darren j beattie ▲ ● ▼
Yes, now this is a very fascinating piece and an outrageous piece and really underscores what a sham the whole 1-6 narrative actually is.
It focuses specifically on a lawsuit, a lawsuit made by a number of Capitol Police officers against 35 or so Trump supporters and Trump adjacent people.
You got to look at this.
It has so many ridiculous things compounded on one another and I'll focus on the highlights.
First of all, they allege that Trump began inciting The so-called insurrection on 1-6, all the way back when he started talking about this election was a steal.
Now, the last time I was on, we were treated to the glorious genius, the very high IQ genius of people like Joanne Reed, talking about you and calling you racist and all these things.
So where does that come from?
We get a little glimpse into this in this Capitol Police lawsuit.
They say, these charges on Trump's part of election fraud Are racist because in many of the municipalities where this alleged fraud occurred, there is a substantial African American population.
So just to clarify that, even though there's no claim that the fraud had anything to do with race or with any demographic issue within the municipality, the simple existence of a substantial population of African Americans in the locations where fraud may have occurred, That's pretty amazing.
enough to render all accusations of fraud racist and therefore violations of civil rights law and so forth.
That's pretty amazing.
It's a one-stop go-to mechanism to completely shut down all recourse to election fraud by calling it racist.
to election fraud by calling it racist.
It's really remarkable because most critical race theory lawsuits are against law enforcement officers.
It's really remarkable because most critical race theory lawsuits are against law enforcement officers.
Now we have law enforcement officers, namely the Capitol Police, using a critical race theory lawsuit against Trump supporters.
Now we have law enforcement officers, namely the Capitol Police, using a critical race theory lawsuit against Trump supporters.
And it's really quite remarkable.
There's some other interesting features as well.
Another feature is simply the number of defendants.
There are just a handful of Capitol Police going after 35 people.
It has this reverse class action structure where you have a number of privileged Capitol Police officers who are getting full support, full air cover from the media, going after In many cases, they're just ordinary people.
They have slots for John Does, meaning any random person who happened to be around at the time.
One of the people they're suing is Thomas Caldwell, who's this 60-year-old disabled vet who never even went into the Capitol.
So again, it recapitulates this political persecution angle of powerful media backed entities crushing normal everyday Trump supporters in the case of many of the defendants. Now, I think the most amazing component of this actually, is some of the citations they use to really amplify the seriousness of this so called insurrection.
Some of the citations they use are from alleged Proud Boys, and the very Proud Boys that they use in these citations are persons who are identified in Revolver's previous report as being very likely federal operatives based on what they've said and what they've done, and based on the fact that we still don't know their identities and they haven't been indicted. And And the real whopper, the coup de grace here, is that they blame Trump
For inciting the Michigan kidnapping case, which as we know now, is a complete federal infiltration operation.
Revolver.News was the first to report this, but it's later come out, been confirmed by even BuzzFeed and other outlets, that this so-called Michigan kidnapping plot, which was the precursor to 1-6, Had a federal infiltration ratio of 12 out of the 18 so-called plotters were feds or fed informants and now the Capitol Police are taking this and saying Trump incited this?
No, the FBI incited this, the federal government incited this by our own understanding now, which is that 12 out of the 18 people were informants.
So the only sense in which Trump was responsible for this is that this was an FBI operation and Trump at the time happened to be the de jure head of the FBI as chief executive, but of course he knew nothing about this.
But the whole thing is remarkable.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Yeah, okay, but did they also name, you know, you've pointed out whether Proud Boys, Oathkeepers, etc.
Are any of those guys that are not listed in the criminal investigations, are they, they're cited, but are all these guys in the Oathkeeper guys sued?
darren j beattie ▲ ● ▼
There are some Oath Keepers sued that, I've looked at this in granular detail because this is, This is my main point of interest.
They do name Oath Keepers and Stuart Rose, but almost as an afterthought, and they don't really explore the main things that one would explore if one were aggressively going after.
I happen to think in the case of this specific suit, it's probably not any kind of nefarious thing or deliberate covering up for people who might be informants.
I just simply think it's a matter of incompetence and the FBI infiltration, the federal infiltration that I believe very strongly happened and I think Revolver has proved and we're running a subsequent report that will provide even more evidence.
I think something like that is sufficiently compartmentalized that the amateurs behind this ridiculous lawsuit probably weren't even privy to it.
