Well, the virus has now killed more than a hundred people in China and new cases have been confirmed around the world. | |

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 U.S., Singapore, Cambodia, Vietnam, the list goes on. | |
| Health officials are investigating more than 100 possible cases in the U.S. | ||
| 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. | ||

The nonprofit media watchdog group Media Matters has selected its choice as the biggest misinformer of 2021. | |
| And this year's honor goes to former President Trump's chief strategist Steve Bannon. | ||
| Media Matters points to his daily podcast as the main reason he was selected. | ||
| It is full of non-stop misinformation and conspiracy theories. | ||
| Here's an example from earlier this week. | ||
| They've got to get H.R. | ||
| 1 because they're not going to be damned unless they federalize these elections. | ||
| They're going to lose 100 seats. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They're smart. | |
| Internally, they got it. | ||
| They understand. | ||
| They can't show economics. | ||
| They can't show economics. | ||
|

|
The country's being invaded on the southern border. | |
| It's a complete catastrophe. | ||
| They're about to shut down the whole country because they weren't prepared for Omicron and lied about it. | ||
| The only thing they've got is they've got to grab the apparatus at a federal level and steal the elections. | ||
| I understand what they're doing. | ||
|
unidentified
|
If I was those guys, 100% that's what I'd be working on because you've got no other shot. | |
| All your other policies destroy the nation. | ||
|

|
Okay, Media Matters President Angelo Carusone joining us now. | |
| I think we know why he got the top spot as misinformer of the year, Angelo, but let's walk through it. | ||
| And with that, I want to name the last five misinformers of the year. | ||
| Steve Bannon this year, Fox News 2020, John Solomon 2019, Lachlan Murdoch 2018, Mark Zuckerberg 2017. | ||
| But you say Steve Bannon is unlike any other because his message, his misinformation, it's more dangerous. | ||
| It's much more dangerous. | ||
| You know, one of the things that we've seen with Bannon that's unique, excuse me, is that he's operationalizing extremism in a way that previous misinformers had not. | ||
| And he's doing it deliberately and it's calculated. | ||
| And that's really the biggest distinction here. | ||
| I mean, there's real world impact and a whole infrastructure being built right underneath all of us as a result of the misinformation that he's pumping out there 17 hours a week. | ||
| He's been banned from media platforms. | ||
| Twitter, Spotify kicked him off back in 2021 after he called Dr. Fauci and CIA Director Wray to be beheaded. | ||
| YouTube banned him. | ||
| Even right-wing platforms have banned him. | ||
| That being said, it seems Bannon still has this massive reach, Angelo. | ||
| Yeah, and I think that's a really important point that you draw there, which is that there has been instances where his platform has been eroded. | ||
| I mean, things would actually be, I think, significantly worse if he still had access to places like YouTube in particular, which was his biggest audience driver right before the 2020 election. | ||
| I mean, you know, we've seen examples where there have been 8,500 new extremists from his campaign joining local GOP precincts across the country, all in the guise of saving the next election, some of which have actually said they're bringing baseball bats, they're ready for violence. | ||
| But to your point, it does demonstrate the fact that there's a lot of durability and high demand for what he's been able to construct. So I think it's good that there has been a little bit of a ceiling there, but I think part of the reason we wanted to give this designation isn't just a consequence of how much damage he's caused, but to remind everybody that just because he doesn't have access to these big platforms, he actually still has enormous reach and influence that may be under the radar. Yeah, it doesn't mean he's not being heard. | ||
| Angelo Carusone, thank you. | ||
| We appreciate it. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Polling suggesting the lie of January 6th, the one being promoted by former President Trump and much of the GOP is gaining support. | ||
| And not surprisingly, is falling along party lines. | ||
| Polling from CBS shows Republicans and Democrats aren't even close to a consensus on what happened that day. | ||
| While ABC News polling shows a majority of Republicans still falsely believe President Biden did not win the 2020 election. | ||
| Washington Post, University of Maryland numbers have the perhaps most alarming numbers. | ||
| The percentage of total Americans who say violent action against the government is sometimes justified currently stands at 34%. | ||
| Among Republicans and Independents, that number is north of 40%. | ||
| That is millions. | ||
| OK, what they're missing there is the number of independents that, the number of independents that believe Joe Biden's illegitimate. | ||
| This number is skyrocketing. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Because information is getting out there. | ||
| Information is getting out there. | ||
| Newsweek, I'm going to bring in Boris Epstein, Newsweek just puts out a poll. | ||
| President Donald J. Trump up by five points over Joe Biden. | ||
| And Chuck Schumer just announced this afternoon, as we've told you, they're going to do time and time again. | ||
| He's going to force a vote on the filibuster to try to get some work around on the filibuster to get through the federal takeover of elections. | ||
| They got to steal. | ||
| They got to steal to win. | ||
| And hey, for MSNBC, the American people can make up their own mind. | ||
| They can weigh and measure when they get information. | ||
| They can check, see what's true and what's not true. | ||
| They believe us because they believe the facts, okay? | ||
| Not the garbage you put out every day. | ||
| That's why your audience is shrinking. | ||
| That's why CNN's audience is shrinking. | ||
| This is why Rachel Maddow's quitting, right? | ||
| Her last day is April 1st. | ||
| This is why Brian Williams quit. | ||
| You guys are imploding. | ||
| We're ascending, and we're ascending because the American people, and they talk about guys coming with baseball bats. | ||
| I don't know where they make this stuff up from. | ||
| Bottom line is, working class and middle class Americans are engaged in the political process greater than ever, and they're going to take over school boards, and they're going to go take over election officials, and they're going to go take over the precinct committee strategy, take over, become active in politics, and take over the Republican Party. | ||
| That's called democracy. | ||
| This is what you want. | ||
| You want people actively participating. | ||
| And that's what's happening. | ||
| And they understand their days are over because they see in Virginia where 95%, we had 95% of the billets filled of election officials, 95%. | ||
| In the 2020 presidential election, we had 33%. | ||
| In the last gubernatorial race in the Commonwealth, we had 25%. | ||
| Your days are numbered. | ||
| We're going to run the tables on you with 100 seats in the House of Representatives. | ||
| And then bye-bye, you're gone. | ||
| Don't care what you say, you can show up to committee meetings or not, we don't care, because it's not going to matter anymore. | ||
| If, I shouldn't say if, when we get the right leadership in the House, leadership that is prepared to get focused, leadership that's prepared to make sure our country's not stolen, leadership that's not just sitting there as controlled opposition. | ||
| This is all about, this is going to be about leadership, but hey, right now people are grinding it out, people are focused, and people are volunteering. | ||
| Isn't that what Edmund Burke said? | ||
| The little platoons? | ||
| Well, the little platoons are at the school boards. | ||
| The little platoons are at the election officials and volunteering and going to run for county supervisors. | ||
| The little platoons are joining up. | ||
| It's more than 8,500. | ||
| I don't know where you got that number from. | ||
| There's tens of thousands already and they're actively engaged and they're being empowered. | ||
| Remember 2022, the Valley of Decision, because the country, not just about the election, the country's going to be one thing or the other. | ||
| This is an inflection year in a fourth turning. | ||
| That's where everybody has to put their shoulder to the wheel. | ||
| It's about commitment. | ||
| It's about engagement. | ||
| It's about empowerment, your empowerment. | ||
| And this is what the mainstream media hates. | ||
| They hate that you are now have a seat at the table. | ||
| They hate the fact that you are weaponizing your human agency. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| And not in a violent way. | ||
| We don't need to get violent. | ||
| Because we have two-thirds of the country. | ||
| There's not going to be a succession. | ||
| There's not going to be a civil war. | ||
| Because you guys are finished. | ||
| You're going to be a permanent minority party. | ||
| Right? | ||
| With like 25% of the vote. | ||
| That's fine. | ||
| And you know, you'll chirp up and you'll be on TV or everything. | ||
| That's fine. | ||
| That's what democracy is about. | ||
| It's good. | ||
| That's a good thing. | ||
| But we're going to run the tables. | ||
| And you've seen it in all the polling right now. | ||
| And what they have to do, they have to change the rules. | ||
| They have to have the 800,000 green card holders, non-U.S. | ||
| citizens vote in New York City. | ||
| They have to have mail-in ballots in California. | ||
| They're trying to get mail-in ballots in New York. | ||
| They've got to get their hands, the federal government's got to get their hands on the state apparatuses to make sure they have a chance to win. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right? | |
| They know they stole it. | ||
| They know Mark Elias and these guys stole it. | ||
| They bragged about it. | ||
| Beforehand, the Transition Integrity Project, Rahim and I and Bill McGinley went around and lectured all over the country. | ||
| September 29th, I do the ad. | ||
| I'm doing the thing for John Heilman on Showtime. | ||
| I walked through exactly how they're going to steal it. | ||
| On the 29th of September, I walked through exactly how it was going to be done. | ||
| And if Mike Pence had done his job on the 6th, and sent it back to Jay Corman in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and to Arizona, and to Georgia, the House of Representatives would eventually, those lectures have been decertified, as they should have been, and as they will be, as we continue to press through 3 November, and I don't care if they don't like to hear it, they're going to hear it all day long, because we're going to get those decertified. | ||
| If it happened then, it'd get kicked into the House of Representatives. | ||
| And Donald J. Trump would be at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, because we would have won that 27 states to 23 states by congressional delegation. | ||
| Boris Epstein, tell us about this polling that's just out, Newsweek Magazine. | ||
|

|
Trump up five, sir. | |
| Steve, it's an honor to be here. | ||
| Happy January 3rd. | ||
| Happy New Year and happy January 6th week. | ||
| And the mainstream media is going to try to go absolutely bonkers on you, Steve, on Humbly Me, of course, on President Trump, the leader of our movement, and on this whole posse. | ||
| But here's the bottom line. | ||
| The bottom line is they know they've lost. | ||
| The New York Times, the Washington Post, MSNBC, with that, what, probably with 10 minutes Free PR segment for you, and for the War Room, and most importantly, for the War Room posse that they put on there with Angelo Corazoni, and they put on Media Matters, oh, this independent entity, Media Matters, it's literally a far, far, far left advocacy entity. | ||
| The bottom line is, they know they lost. | ||
| They know that Biden's illegitimate. | ||
| They know with the independents, he's in the 20s. | ||
| They know that over 50% of Americans believe that he's illegitimate. | ||
| And Newsweek today pops a story that says that across seven polls, President Donald J. Trump is beating Joe Biden in a matchup by an average of 5%, a real clear politics average. | ||
| That's not one poll. | ||
| That's not two polls. | ||
| That is seven polls. | ||
| And by the way, those polls were conducted through November and December, and the delta is getting bigger day by day by day. | ||
| The most recent poll had the difference at 8%. | ||
| The poll between President Trump and Joe Biden. | ||
| President Trump- Boris, hang on one second. | ||
| We've got a minute. | ||
| I want to just put a point on that and then we're going to bring you back through the break. | ||
| It's seven polls. | ||
| This is the average. | ||
| The last one's eight. | ||
| But hold it. | ||
| It has not included, ladies and gentlemen, this fiasco and debacle has not been fully baked in of what's happened over the holiday period. | ||
| The country's in total chaos. | ||
| You have chaos at the airports. | ||
| You have chaos in the logistics chain. | ||
| You have inflation out of control. | ||
| A burning dumpster fire. | ||
| You have now COVID. | ||
| The rules here are this. | ||
| No, the rules are that. | ||
| Kids are masked. | ||
| Kids gotta get vaccines. | ||
| Businesses are shut down. | ||
| Everybody's working. | ||
| Everything's cancelled. | ||
| No Christmas. | ||
| You got NBA's cancelled. | ||
| You got five bowl games cancelled. | ||
| Wait till they start pushing back and cancelling the NFL. | ||
| It's total chaos. | ||
| He's in free fall. | ||
| Short commercial break. | ||
| We're going to turn with Boris Epstein. | ||
| We got Matthew Tierman, Joe Allen, a whole host of action information in the war room. | ||

|

|
Oh, big time. | |
| Real good. | ||
| Big time. | ||
| They're in panic mode now. | ||
| Chuck Schumer's sitting there saying they're going to have votes. | ||
| They've got to get rid of the filibuster. | ||
| If the federal government does not get their hands on the apparatus to vote, The Democrats can't steal anything else. | ||
| They know they got to cheat to win. | ||
| I don't care if the New York Times and the Washington Post don't like when I say that. | ||
| They got to cheat to win. | ||
| OK, that's where they're going to change all these rules, all these regulations, everything you say. | ||
| They got to they got to get Omicron. | ||
| They need mail-in ballots because of the CCP virus. | ||
| But the polling, the American people are on to their con. | ||
| They understand it and they don't want any more of it. | ||
| Boris Epstein. | ||
| Well, first of all, even the polling in that MSNBC infomercial for Steve Bannon and the War Room Posse, they're putting it up and saying, oh, look at this, it's terrible! | ||
| But what they gloss over is that over 50% of Americans believe that the 2020 election was stolen, and that Joe Biden is illegitimate, and that independents are even higher. | ||
| There's been such a disaster and such a complete lack of leadership. | ||
| I mean, that's even too kind. | ||
| This has just been a dumpster fire of biblical proportions, this Biden administration. | ||
| And I've talked about this with reporters. | ||
| I've talked about this with more establishment Republicans and even Democrats. | ||
| And they all talk about the invisible cabinet, Janet Yellen, Pete Buttigieg, who not only, by the way, not only has he destroyed the nation's supply chains, he is also slowing down the nation's technology. | ||
| I've got information That he's the one that's tamping down the development of 5G across the country, saying it's somehow going to interfere with air traffic controllers, even though he's had a year, a year, to make it work and let our, you know, the rural parts of our country have access to broadband, etc, etc. | ||
| Pete Buttigieg doesn't want that because, hey, no conspiracies but no coincidences. | ||
| You better believe we know where rural America is voting, and why would Pete Buttigieg not want them to have access to high-speed internet? | ||
| Maybe he doesn't want them to have the information, but Americans are smart, and they get the information they need, and that is why Biden is in free fall. | ||
| And losers around him, like Janet Yellen, Pete Buttigieg still trying to breastfeed his kids, you've got Jennifer Granholm. | ||
| These are absolute mediocrities in this administration. | ||
| Jen Psaki, the others on the actual White House side, and then One of the worst of them all is Kamala Harris. | ||
| They have turned the American people off so badly that a part of it is the Americans are convinced that 3 November 2020 was the big steal. | ||
| Full stop. | ||
| Full stop. | ||
| The other part of it, Steve. | ||
| The other part of it is, there's buyer's remorse. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You didn't tell us. | |
| What? | ||
| We didn't know that Joe Biden, you know, literally couldn't string a sentence together. | ||
| We weren't told that Joe Biden was a complete shadow over a human being. | ||
| We weren't told that Democrats were going to destroy everything that this country was built on. | ||
| And by the way, rebuilt in four years of Trump, the southern border, Afghanistan, strength across the Across the country and across the world, pushing back on China, fighting against China. | ||
| So the American people are coming together and saying, A, we believe this was stolen and B, we were sold a bill of goods, buyer's remorse. | ||
| I'll tell you what, if Denver has a Daily Mail, the lead story I think we had, the perfect storm, that Biden comes back to D.C. | ||
| today in the middle of this snowstorm, like eight inches or so, and it's saying that the economy is in a collapse, all his things he's trying to pass are a collapse, he can't get the John Lewis bill passed so they can start stealing elections. | ||
| Everything he's touching, his popularity is imploding, Congress's popularity is imploding, They're in the middle of it, and all they're going to do now is talk about 6th January. | ||
| It's fine. | ||
| And they said, oh, we've got to poll 60%. | ||
| We want them to talk about 6th January all day long, while the country is spinning out of control. | ||
| And Buttigieg, you know, it's 2,000 airlines a day that are not running. | ||
| He's ruined Christmas for the American people. | ||
| Gifts late, no airlines, people in the air. | ||
| I want every person that had to camp out in an airport, make sure you're really voting, supporting the Democrats in the midterm elections. | ||
| This is the chaos and anarchy. | ||
| You know, Trump put out some mean tweets, and the media said, oh, it's chaos and anarchy. | ||
| Where was it? | ||
| Last time I looked, the country was in pretty good, the country was in pretty safe hands. | ||
| The only way we can lose is the Republican, the establishment Republicans can't give it to him. | ||
| Mitch McConnell's given them all the access they want to three trillion dollars of capital by the debt ceiling. | ||
| They haven't played hardball in the continued resolution. | ||
| And the redistricting at the state level, it's a bigger fiasco. | ||
| Boris, we got about five minutes. | ||
| Walk us through, and I'm hearing we're getting bad news out of Missouri. | ||
| Yes, we are. | ||
| Bad news out of the Show Me State. | ||
| Steve, 10 more seconds on the previous topic. | ||
| This story by Newsweek is no accident. | ||
| The average of polls of Trump versus Biden, showing Trump annihilating Biden, especially in the latter polls, is absolutely groundbreaking. | ||
| And again, the difference, the fact that it's getting, the delta is getting bigger and bigger and bigger is so key. | ||
| The most recent poll that they had was from December 17th to 19th. | ||
| by insider advantage, an eight point difference, 49 to 41 with a margin of error, that's 50 to 40. | ||
| That's the kind of difference that in a presidential matchup is virtually unseen, unprecedented. | ||
| And it speaks to where this country is and the mainstream media know it, the Democrats know it, Chuck Schumer knows it, and that's why they're spinning out of control. | ||
| But this presents both an opportunity and a challenge. | ||
| And a challenge to Republicans is to draw the maps the way they should be drawn, and draw the maps the way the Democrats. | ||
| The way the Democrats are drawing them in states like California, in New York, in Maryland, and Illinois, to draw them with strength for MAGA. | ||
| I'm hearing, again, just as you said today, that Missouri, Republican-controlled Missouri, is coming out with weak maps. | ||
| And Florida, as we've talked about time and time again, the latest maps that we've seen are weak. | ||
| I'm hearing a new one is coming out that may be a little stronger, but we cannot have one less than five MAGA seats come out of Florida. | ||
| Hang on, hang on. | ||
| If we get stronger maps, it's because of this audience. | ||
| Let's get to Santos, Governor Santos, and by the way, prayers for his wife going through the horrible situation of the cancer. | ||
| I know he's with his family, but he's a tough guy. | ||
| He's a tough hombre, right? | ||
| You've got to get to Ron DeSantis. | ||
| He can take it. | ||
| He loves hearing from people. | ||
| Make sure he knows how important this is of everything he's doing. | ||
| He's got a full plate down there as governor. | ||
| He's got to focus on this. | ||
| Make sure you're going to your states. | ||
| Make sure you're going to Tennessee. | ||
| Still in Georgia. | ||
| Now to Missouri. | ||
| We should be plus 12. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Tennessee. | |
| Kentucky. | ||
| You've got to get on it. | ||
| This is only going to come if the war room posse exerts pressure. | ||
| Boris Epstein. | ||
| Just the way that War Room Posse stood strong and did not allow for Build Back Broke to go forward, has pushed back at every inch on Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi, where Mitch McConnell has been way too weak. | ||
| We've got to stand strong here. | ||
| We're standing strong on precinct captains, no doubt about it. | ||
| We're standing strong on 3 November, no doubt about it. | ||
| We've got to be the strongest yet on redistricting, because it happens once every 10 years, but it impacts centuries. | ||
| It happens once every 10 years, but it impacts centuries. | ||
| And if we do the right thing here, if we stand strong and we put in MAGA districts, just the way the Democrats are putting in their districts in California, they took it down from 11 Republican districts to 4. | ||
| In Maryland, they zeroed us out. | ||
| They have zeroed us out. | ||
| Complete massacre in New York and Illinois. | ||
| We've got to be doing the same thing, and the door is open. | ||
| The opportunity is here. | ||
| Republicans cannot be rhinos. | ||
| They've got to stand strong. | ||
| And again, to the War Room Posse, I get a lot of emails asking, what can we do? | ||
| What you can do is write your governor, write the heads of your legislature, and say it loud and say it clear. | ||
| We want MAGA districts. | ||
| MAGA is in control. | ||
| I went up on Getter and I'm on all our platforms now, the numbers that people have to go to call to, because people of color inside the lines of a color bully. | ||
| Look, once again I want to say, I admire the Democrats for playing smash mouth. | ||
| You're in charge of the states? | ||
| Hey, there's no whining, there's no tears in the war room, but we need to represent in the states that we control. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| In the states that we control. | ||
| And particularly in Florida, Tennessee, Kentucky, Georgia. | ||
| We've got to represent. | ||
| Now Missouri. | ||
| Good God, I can't believe Missouri. | ||
| You've got to represent. | ||
| We are giving seats away. | ||
| We have a unique opportunity to run the tables on a historic run like in 1932, in 1994 under Newt Gingrich, in 2010 with the Tea Party. | ||
| We have a unique opportunity for 100 seats. | ||
| 100 seats. | ||
| The predicate has to be laid today. | ||
| We've got to get those seats drawn as they should be drawn. | ||
| As being pro-MAGA. | ||
| Boris, you've got emails, you've got newsletters. | ||
| Walk people through how they get to you, because it's only going to build in intensity every day from now until November, and this country's on a huge inflection point. | ||
| Not just about this election, we're going to be covering all of it. | ||
| Capital markets, the economy, geopolitics. | ||
| In fact, we're going to talk about Hungary next. | ||
| We've got Matthew Tierman, Donald J. Trump coming in hard today, in back of Viktor Orban, and about what that means. | ||
| Boris, how do people get to you? | ||
| How do they follow you? | ||

| That is my pillow and your humble servants here at the War Room Apparatus. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| A couple of big elections next year. | ||
| In fact, on we did the on New Year's Day, we said 2022 was the valley of decision. | ||
| This is an inflection point for this country and quite frankly for the world. | ||
| And this year, and it's much deeper than just we're in a fourth turning. | ||
| So it's much deeper than just elections, although elections are part of it. | ||
| Right. | ||
| We go from the sublime to the less sublime. | ||
| Sometimes we've got to get our some grease under our fingernails and the nitty gritty. | ||
| Dirty world of politics, because we have to. | ||
| Big elections this year. | ||
| France, I think, is in April or May. | ||
| Brazil is in October. | ||
| And we just got some news that President Bolsonaro, with an internal blockage, is back in the hospital today. | ||
| I think that's related to the assassination attempt on him a couple of years ago. | ||
| And of course, the midterm elections, which is really a referendum on Joe Biden, because now presidencies are really in two-year chunks, let's be honest. | ||
| This 100 seat sweep with the Democrats are imploding is in November. | ||
| So you have France in the spring. | ||
| You have you have Brazil in in October. | ||
| And then we have the American midterms. | ||
| There's another one. | ||
| And quite frankly, on the cultural scene for the Judeo-Christian West, Maybe as important as the biggest, and that's Hungary. | ||
| Hungary, let's face it, the size of it's like North Carolina, Virginia, the size of population was about 8 or 10 million people. | ||
| But it punches way above its weight when you talk about the defense of the Judeo-Christian West. | ||
| I want to bring in Matthew Tierman. | ||
| Matthew was just in Hungary with Orban and the entire crew. | ||
| Donald J. Trump, the 45th President of the United States, today gave a total and complete endorsement For Victor Orban, Matthew Tierman. | ||
| Walk me through that. | ||
| That's kind of unusual. | ||
| Very important, but kind of unusual. | ||
| Walk us through it. | ||
| Well, much like in 2016, when he was very vocal about Brexit and having Nigel Farage on the campaign trail with him, he knows that these battles, these existential culture war battles, where it's almost down to a binary in the battle of ideas, they're global. | ||
| It is the sovereigntists, the nationalists, the populists, those who believe in the ethos of Westphalian sovereignty that, like his great Warsaw speech on culture and his great UN speech a couple years later about the power of sovereignty, the necessity of sovereignty that he addressed to the United Nations, the most globalist body, the technocratic body that predated the EU coming out of the Treaty of Versailles and the League of Nations, trying to harmonize global policy. | ||
| Under the auspice of something benevolent to try and evade war. | ||
| But in the end, when you have the breakdown of sovereignty and you reduce the competitive forces of nation states trying to, like our country with federalism, trying to bring forward best practices, which check each other on the global stage, the breakdown in that, he recognized the existentialness of that. | ||
| So he is the anti-globalist president. | ||
| And even though he's a nationalist and a sovereigntist, he knows it's a global battle. | ||
| It's a global battle to retain our sovereignty. | ||
| And no country in the world has been at the forefront of that battle more than Hungary, which had the first big shift to the right in Orban's election pre-2015, 2014. | ||
| He has led on it. | ||
| He is a culture warrior. | ||
| And there are three leaders in the world that really the tie that binds is obviously this ethos, but also that they are not like the usual politician. | ||
| They do not pander. | ||
| That's Orban, that's Donald J. Trump, and that's Jair Bolsonaro, who Well, let's pray for him. | ||
| This is a redux of after effects from the attack on him during his campaign a few years ago. | ||
| But he's a fighter, and I think he's going to pull through and be ready for this election. | ||
| How big is this going to be in Hungary? | ||
| That election, I think, is also in April. | ||
| It's around the same time as the French election. | ||
| It's coming up on us. | ||
| Yeah, they haven't said it's going to be after, I think. | ||
| They haven't said it yet. | ||
| It's going to be toward the end of the month. | ||
| The first round of the French election is April 10th. | ||
| The second round is the 24th. | ||
| There will not be a clear winner. | ||
| In the first round of the French election, it looks like it's going to be Macron and hopefully Zemmour who is on fire and gaining massive traction. | ||
| I just got back from France and driving around France and Switzerland. | ||
| You cannot flip a radio dial without hearing the words Zemmour, Zemmour, Zemmour. | ||
| It's much like Trump in 15 and 16. | ||
| It was the topic of every conversation dedicated to politics and society. | ||
| And Orban has led on these same issues of fighting for borders. | ||
| sovereignty, retention of these rights where a country, a nation-state gets to defend its view of natural law, and the EU has been trying to break it down. | ||
| Trump's endorsement is not surprising. | ||
| He sees that this pattern of these fighters himself, Orban and Bolsonaro, they're up against the world. | ||
| And Hungary, as you said, 9, 10 million people, but it really punches above its weight. | ||
| I think it comes down to cultural history as the little sister of Vienna and the Austro-Hungarian Empire. | ||
| To survive, it had to play diplomacy really well, and Orban is an absolute master. | ||
| And not only is he a master, spending a few weeks there a couple months ago and almost through into December, they've got an incredible bench of young, talented ministers and politicians, leaders. | ||
| He has got, I think, Out of all the EU nations, there is no nation that has a succession that is better positioned than Orban's successors. | ||
| It'll likely be when I think he will win convincingly. | ||
| This will be his last term, and he will anoint his successor, and then he will go into the sort of party politics as an eminence Greece, and it'll probably be Peter Sciarto, the foreign and economics minister, Judith Varga, the justice minister, or Kaepernick Novak, the minister on family and culture. | ||
| And they're all incredible young leaders with the same sort of vision he has. | ||
| They're charismatic, intelligent, they're well-read and intellectual, they're worldly, and they understand what the stakes are. | ||
| And they're happy warriors as well. | ||
| They don't come across as, you know, angry, messianic zealots. | ||
| They come across as highly erudite intellectual leaders who can really gin up the emotion, the patriotism and the emotion in the crowds of Hungarians in a very positive way, not like the left likes to paint it where it's all filled with hate. | ||
| Their independence march, much like Poland, is incredible cross-sections of society coming together to celebrate the history of the country, and their patriotism is strong. | ||
| I think Orban is going to win convincingly. | ||
| His opposition is very weak. | ||
| Peter Markey's eye is, he's cobbled together a, what do they call it, a jungle of misfit toys, where it's, you know, Greens and Jobbik, which is hard right. | ||
| and sort of pseudo-Christian Democrats, but aren't really, and they have no tie that binds. | ||
| And their only tie that binds is that they hate Orban and they want to usurp his power. | ||
| And that's not what's going to give them a mandate. | ||
| So I think he's going to be fine, and I think Hungary is going to lead the way. | ||
| Hopefully these things have tangents with France. | ||
| I think the German coalition is going to fall apart, and we're going to have election again in Germany in 22. | ||
| So that also gives us some opportunities to gain ground for the sovereigntist movements. | ||
| Tommy Robinson's got a new film coming out. | ||
| We're going to get that trailer. | ||
| We're kind of jammed between now and 6 January, but also Matthew Tierman has a special report on Switzerland. | ||
| We're going to get to all that over the next couple of days. | ||
| Matthew, how do people track you down during the day? | ||
| How have they found you on Getter and other social media platforms? | ||
| Hey, Getter is where it's at. | ||
| You know, I'm involved with that team and I talk to them regularly. | ||
| We're bringing people from all over the world. | ||
| When I was in Hungary, I brought, we got a great guy in Hungary, Andras Laszlo, who's got a great article coming out that I'm helping edit about the election. | ||
| And I'll send that to you to promote when it goes up later this week about the opposition and how weak and fractured it is. | ||
| But Getter is where it's at for Hungary, for France, for Germany, for the UK. | ||
| And so I'm, you know, at Matthew Tierremont, T-Y-R-M-A-N-D. | ||
| All across social media, but Getter's where it's at. | ||
| And, you know, get everyone on Getter. | ||
| I mean, they're doing the same thing they did a year ago. | ||
| They're trying to purge us. | ||
| They're, you know, not hiding the nakedness and the ugliness of their pseudo-narrative as to why they're purging us. | ||
| So we need alternative mechanisms and Getter's where it's at. | ||
| By the way, Matthew runs a little hot on domestic politics, too, so it's always a great read. | ||
| Same time as we have French elections and Hungarian elections, we've got the Ohio Senate primary, which is going to be another culture war. | ||
| Josh Mandel is going to be a blowout. | ||
| Do you have a dog in that fight? | ||
| Do you have a dog in a fight in Ohio? | ||
| Look, I like winners. | ||
|

Josh Mandel is a winner, and these other guys are total yuses. | |
| Thank you, Matthew Tierman. | ||
| Okay, thank you very much. | ||
| Do we have a cold open for Joe Allen? | ||
| Can we play Joe Allen's cold open? | ||
| And then we'll turn to our editor in charge of all things transhumanism. | ||

Artificial superintelligence. | |
| Humanity's last invention. | ||
| No reason to be scared. | ||
| This is... Let's take a journey into the future and explore how AI develops and changes humanity, paving the way for robots that are too fast for humans to see in 10 years' time, for the creation of AI-free zones in 60 years, for energy being rationed for humans to power the super AIs in 90 years, and for human consciousness to be transmitted into space as data in 200 years' time. | ||
| People are having natural conversations with artificial intelligence. | ||
| Google's Lambda allows humans to talk to expert AIs on any topic, starting to replace the need for online searches. | ||
| Elon Musk's Neuralink graduates from being a medical device, and testing begins on increasing human intelligence. | ||
| This gets the name IA, Intelligence Amplification. | ||
| Peripherals, physical add-ons, are being developed, such as zoom cameras, sonar-based night vision, and taste modifiers that can all be connected to the brain chip. | ||
| Loved ones who have passed away are being turned into digital avatars. | ||
| These AI chatbots, patented by Microsoft, learn how to respond by studying the text, audio, and video conversations from when the human was alive. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| I think the thing that scares me the most is not the Democratic Party and the progressive left and the globalists and the corporations. | ||
| It's these. | ||
| It's the technocracy when they start talking about the singularity and what they're doing. | ||
| Joe Allen, describe to our audience what we just saw. | ||
| Yes, Steve, that's a sort of pseudo documentary that was done by Venture City. | ||
| It's called Time Lapse of Artificial Intelligence from 2028 to 3000 plus. | ||
| It really is. | ||
| It's 13 minutes long. | ||
| It's well worth the entire watch. | ||
| So if you go to warroom.org, it should be right there in the Big Tech section. | ||
| Definitely worth seeing the whole thing. | ||
| Mainly because I think in the course of that 13 minutes, it really encapsulates the ambitions of some of the wilder thinkers in this movement. | ||
| Everyone from some of the originals like Hans Moravec to Ray Kurzweil, Ben Goertzel, Max Tegmark, Nick Bostrom, all of them, like there's a little piece of all of them in it. | ||
| And I won't spoil the ending. | ||
| You can quibble with the dates. | ||
| You know, I don't really agree with them. | ||
| And you can quibble with the possibility of it happening. | ||
| I don't necessarily agree with all of that either. | ||
| But I would say it is undoubtedly a very artfully done encapsulation. | ||
| And it's kind of a horrifying take because it's so unsentimental about the future of humanity. | ||
| Real quickly, we've got about 30 seconds when I pitch back to you, but you were on our New Year's Day special for one hour, and we talked about the five, you know, advanced chip design, quantum computing, artificial intelligence, regenerative robotics, and biotechnology. | ||
| Those five converging on the singularity, of which that'll be Humanity 2.0 or Homo Sapien 2.0. | ||
| Do you agree that in each of those verticals that the technology is accelerating at an accelerating rate right now, sir? | ||
| Yeah, yeah, give or take, undoubtedly. | ||
| I mean, you know, some things lag, some things come in bursts, but undoubtedly artificial intelligence rapidly improving, you know, the willingness of people to undergo, you know, bionic surgeries, I think, is increasing in the capacity to do it. | ||
| So, yeah, without a doubt. | ||
| Just hang on. | ||
| We're gonna keep Joe Allen through the break. | ||
| We got a very special guest from Los Angeles. | ||

I did a giveaway on the 18th of December and I think it just rapidly hit me because We gave away about 3,000 toys. | |
| And after the event was over, we cleaned up a little bit. | ||
| I started feeling kind of funny. | ||
| And so I went home and kind of laid down. | ||
| Got up the next morning, which was Sunday morning, and made it to church. | ||
| But I didn't feel bad, and I didn't feel good. | ||
| And Monday morning, I went and got tested, and I was positive. | ||
| So I just told the grandkids, look, we got to take this ride, and God is with us. | ||
| But, um, I realized that, um, a week before I caught COVID, a guy that gave me a scripture, a chapter to read, and it was Psalms 30. | ||
| And he told me to get it in me. | ||
| And I started reading it. | ||
| And the next day I began to read it. | ||
| He said, I'm getting ready to take you on a journey. | ||
| And this journey that I'm taking you on, I'm going with you. | ||
| Trust me. | ||
| And when the COVID hit, I knew that was the journey that God was taking me on. | ||
| Because there's some things that happened in that hospital room that could nobody do but God. | ||
| Things that he told me that nobody knew but God. | ||
| And so I'm here today because of the grace of God. | ||
| And I love my children. | ||
| I love my community. | ||
| And I love the work that God put in front of me. | ||
| So I'm a soldier and I still got to do the work. | ||
| I wasn't finished with the work, so he still got me here. | ||
| But it was a close call. | ||
| Lydia, tell us about why do you believe or why did you feel it was the grace of God that got you through this horrible disease and particularly at your age? | ||
| Why do you think it was the grace of God? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Because God doesn't leave you in the blind. | |
| He told me before it even happened that he was getting ready to take me through a journey and I had to trust him and that he was going with me. | ||
| And I didn't I knew then when he told me it was something great, but I didn't know what it was. | ||
| But he gave me the scriptures to encourage me before he gave me the message. | ||
| Psalms 30, 1 through 12. | ||
| Lydia, we got a few minutes left. | ||
| What is the unfinished work of Lydia Friend? | ||
| You were such a firebrand for the children of Watts by getting them back in school in the time that the teachers' union shut it down. | ||
| What do you believe right now is the journey, you know, God's grace got you through this horrible disease? | ||
| What remains for Lydia Friend? | ||
| What is your work that you have to accomplish? | ||
|
unidentified
|
My job is to win souls for Christ and to allow the kids to know who Jesus is. | |
| And let them know that it's somebody fighting for them no matter what, no matter what the situation look like. | ||
| You still gotta stand, teaching them how to pray, teaching them to believe in God, teaching them that it's only one way and it's God's way. | ||
| And that if your parents are not there for you or whoever's not there, my doors are always open. | ||
| My phone is always open. | ||
| You can call me anytime and they know that. | ||
| The children know that. | ||
| Even the community know that. | ||
| Even my seniors know that. | ||
| Lydia, you've got so many supporters and friends here in the War Room. | ||
| How do people get access to you? | ||
| I know it was the Facebook. | ||
| Could you give it again? | ||
| We're going to put it up on all platforms because so many people want to contact you with prayers and their support. | ||

| I want everybody to visit Lydia at her sites. | ||
| We'll put them back up on Getter and all the different platforms. | ||

| Very powerful. | ||

And thank you too, because I guess when John told you while I was in the hospital, I got a lot of emails from the audience. | |
| So I just want to thank them for all their prayers that went forth. | ||
| It was much needed. | ||
| It was a close call, but God got me. | ||
| I still got work to do. | ||
| A lot of work. | ||
| You have work to do, and we're here to support that work, Lydia, so thank you very much. | ||
| Honored to have you on. | ||
| Lydia, friends, women of Watts and beyond, thank you so much. | ||

| Targeted interventions, right? | ||
| The elderly, diabetes, immune compromised, but hey, the powers that be have not listened. | ||
| Have not listened. | ||
| And right there you saw the power of prayer In the power of someone who's turned their life over to Christ and turned their life over to God, that's Lydia Friend from Watts in California. | ||
| Make sure we want to get this all up, that everybody can get there and welcome Lydia and pray for her and share all that. | ||
| It was a great outpouring when she was in the hospital. | ||
| Okay, tomorrow morning we're going to have some big announcements to start the show off tomorrow. | ||
| Some quite big surprises. |
