Well, the virus has now killed more than 100 people in China, and new cases have been confirmed around the world. | |
| So you don't want to frighten the American public. | ||
| France and South Korea have also got evacuation plans. | ||
| But you need to prepare for and assume. | ||
| Broadly warning Americans to avoid all non-essential travel to China. | ||
| 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 a hundred 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. | ||
| 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. | ||
| You know, somebody who ran OSHA, what is your response to the critics who say, you know, the vaccine requirements for companies is an overreach? | ||
| No, I think just the way this hearing was held tells us everything we need to know. | ||
| The Supreme Court has decided to close their building, require everybody who comes in to be tested that morning. | ||
| In fact, the attorney for the state of Ohio couldn't come into the building because he was found to have COVID, and he had to do it by telephone. | ||
| And you have to wear a mask all the time in the building. | ||
| Powerful people like justices can say, we can work safely, but frontline workers, everybody else has to go out and essentially risk their lives. | ||
| And there are outbreaks going on everywhere. | ||
| OSHA's job is to make sure workplaces are safe. | ||
| You can have just a few people in the room, but if there's no ventilation, they're going to get exposed and they could get really sick. | ||
| So it really struck me as though these justices having no idea what real life is like, what work is like for most people in the country. | ||
| Yet, Dr. Michaels and Carol Lee knows as well, President Biden pushed back against the idea of living with COVID as a new normal. | ||
| Right, Carol? | ||
| That's right, Hallie. | ||
| I mean, look, the president, the White House, the CDC director, they're all under criticism for the administration's COVID response. | ||
| And the president, you know, he's promised that we're going to defeat the virus. | ||
| And yet, asked today by our own Peter Alexander whether the coronavirus is with us to stay, he had a bit of a different answer. | ||
| Take a listen. | ||
| No, I don't think COVID is here to stay. | ||
| But having COVID in the environment here and in the world is probably here to stay. | ||
| But COVID, as we're dealing with it now, is not here to stay. | ||
| The new normal doesn't have to be. | ||
|

|
We have so many more tools we're developing. | |
| So there you have him saying, you know, no, it's not here to stay and then saying, well, it's not here to stay as it currently is, obviously. | ||
| You forget that there are certain states now that are stopping employers from requiring vaccines. | ||
| There are certain states stopping employers from requiring masks. | ||
| Why shouldn't the federal government, which it has already decided in OSHA to give, Congress has decided to give OSHA the power to regulate workplace safety? | ||
| Have a national rule that will protect workers country today than we had a year ago in January. | ||
| We have hospitals that are almost at full capacity with people is severely ill on ventilators. | ||
| We have over a hundred thousand children, which we've never had before in in serious condition and many on ventilators. | ||
| So saying it's a different variant just underscores the fact that without Let me give you one example within this report that's really dreadful. | ||
| Black unemployment, the black jobless rate, went from last month 6.5% to this month 7.1%. | ||
| Now, what's one of the reasons why such a big jump in black unemployment, and this has bigger implications beyond the black American community, I really think it's primarily because of the vaccine mandates. | ||
| Because we know that there's an enormous amount, understandably so, an enormous amount of vaccine hesitancy and vaccine resistance among black workers. | ||
| When Stephanie Rule wonders why aren't a lot of people going back to work, well Biden's onerous and unscientific and unconstitutional vaccine mandate is one huge reason that a lot of people are making the choice to go back to work. | ||
| I shouldn't say they're making a choice, they're being forced into the choice of not going back to work right now. | ||
| So that is one big reason. | ||
| Okay, welcome to The War Room. | ||
| 125 million downloads north of that, actually, on the podcast. | ||
| Of course, we're live everywhere at Real America's Voice, distributed on cable, on the satellite. | ||
| Of course, all the different streaming services. | ||
| I want to thank all of our audience and Rumble Getter, all of it. | ||
| Real America's Voice, go into the chat room, warroom.org. | ||
| Pluto, wherever you, Samsung TV out there in Wichita, some of the sticks that we're up on. | ||
| I want to thank everybody. | ||
| Of course, G News and GTV that put us up in Mandarin and Japanese and then blow through the firewall in Mandarin. | ||
| Also, John Furtick's Radio Network, radio across the nation. | ||
| Go to John Furtick's and get the app. | ||
| Okay, we could have, you know, we started the show today talking about this catastrophic, another catastrophic jobs report. | ||
| By the Biden administration, having jacked this economy up with another $1.9 trillion in the spring. | ||
| Right now, we had a horrible, horrible, horrible employment situation today. | ||
| And Steve Cortez in the morning show was going through and deconstructing those numbers. | ||
| A lot of it is around this. | ||
| The right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing. | ||
| A lot of that we played today was from the Supreme Court, and we could have pulled more. | ||
| And the lack of understanding, the basic understanding... | ||
| By some of the justices, pretty shocking. | ||
| We didn't even get to judge Justice Breyer. | ||
| Justice Breyer, I think, made a statement that 100 percent, you have 100 percent protection against infection by vaccines and by wearing masks. | ||
| Just, I mean, things that are so far off. | ||
| You saw Sotomayor, who has only a modicum of an understanding. | ||
| And I understand she's a judge and she's a lawyer. | ||
| And, you know, maybe you don't have to understand the math, but they don't really even have a intellectual construct Of what this virus is, and you've got Biden. | ||
| I mean, this hapless old man kind of wanders up there. | ||
| He's reading off index cards. | ||
| And it's the conflicting messaging they're sending, and not just the messaging, it's the different policies. | ||
| The right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing. | ||
| And it's a global problem. | ||
| The Chinese Communist Party virus. | ||
| Of course, we're going to have Ben Harnwell on the show tomorrow. | ||
| In China right now, massive cities are in full lockdown. | ||
| Hong Kong is still trying to defeat the virus. | ||
| When you look at Omicron, it looks like, I called Nation's Vaccine, I think you got herd immunity coming. | ||
| But, you know, they're still trying to defeat it. | ||
| The new normal, who knows? | ||
| It's crazy. | ||
| So we want to start overseas tonight. | ||
| Understand how because one of the things we always say is what's happening in Europe happens here on this on this situation with the virus. | ||
| Used to be in 90 days now it's like in 30 days as we've been reporting every day about what's happening in Austria on 1 February. | ||
| We're hurtling up to 1 February. | ||
| Remember, it's a mandatory to get vaccinated or you got to give up, I think, $15,000 a year, essentially with the average income after tax in Austria, you'll be essentially broke. | ||
| You won't be living the lifestyle you live in today. | ||
| Germany is going to effectuate that around 1 February. | ||
| I think the Bundestag is going to get legislation. | ||
| Once again, mandatory vaccinations. | ||
| In Italy, they've announced over 55 mandatory vaccinations. | ||
| There's some outs to it, but the outs are so onerous that you really can't live your life. | ||
| In the United States right now, unvaccinated. | ||
| Citicorp announced today, terminated on 1 February. | ||
| You're terminated. | ||
| Not vaccinate, you're terminated. | ||
| And they said this would never happen. | ||
| Remember, it would never happen. | ||
| At the same time, the Moderna guy, we're trying to pull the clip on that, says, I think you're going to need a fourth booster come the fall of this year. | ||
| And trust me, once he gets that marker out, they'll pull it up. | ||
| So I want to go and start in Amsterdam, in Holland, with a lawyer and an activist, a media personality and someone that's Really got her hand on the pulse. | ||
| She's working at a law firm now, fighting all these issues. | ||
| Eva Vlaardingerbroek joins us now from Amsterdam. | ||
| Eva, of all the nations, as crazy as some of the things are, particularly given the science regarding Omicron, in Austria, in Italy now, in Germany, all to come, it's the Netherlands, correct me if I'm wrong, are you guys as a country in total lockdown right now? | ||
| No, that's completely correct. | ||
| We are in total lockdown. | ||
| And when I say total lockdown, I mean full lockdown. | ||
| Everything is closed apart from supermarkets and pharmacies. | ||
| You basically cannot do anything. | ||
| So we are locked in our houses. | ||
| We've been locked in our houses since the 19th of December. | ||
| So imagine what our Christmas was like. | ||
| Imagine what our New Year's was like. | ||
| And we're most likely going to be in this lockdown until at least the 14th of January. | ||
| And we have a suspicion that they're going to push it till at least the 1st of February. | ||
| Eva, what evidence, what brought this on? | ||
| What evidence brought this on? | ||
| What occurred that forced you guys into something that's probably the most draconian of all the policies we've seen so far? | ||
| Right. | ||
| That's funny that you ask, because there is no evidence. | ||
| And the state even admits to the fact that there is no evidence for this. | ||
| They just said, oh, there's a new variant. | ||
| There's this Omicron variant that seems to be spreading very fast. | ||
| And we better be safe than sorry. | ||
| So we're going to lock you up in your houses for an anticipated risk. | ||
| These are their official words. | ||
| The, the, the liberty movement, the sovereignty movement, the, you know, you've got a, a pretty, you've had a rising and strong political group over there about liberty, about freedom, about sovereignty. | ||
| So what is the political situation? | ||
| I mean, how can people just take this sitting down to miss the entire essentially Christmas holidays by a lockdown? | ||
| Well, we're all saying the same. | ||
| I think most scientists admit that this is as close to the common cold as you're going to get and Once this goes through we'll have herd immunity. I call it nature's vaccine. But but what are people on the right? | ||
| What are people that fighting for liberty? What are they saying about this? | ||
| Well, we're all saying the same we're saying that it should be impossible for the state to enforce these type of Draconian measures and to get involved in our private life on such a totalitarian level, but it doesn't seem to have much effect Actually, it's rather the opposite. You can see now that they're using this lockdown to to Make drive people to such despair that they will most | ||
| likely accept even stricter measures Once we get out of this lockdown, mind you Holland wasn't free None of the European countries have been free for a long time We've had this this health pass everywhere in Europe that your your audience might know about And they're going to now try to make that health pass even stricter by Taking away the option to get tested So what they're trying to do is to force us to get boosted and they're going to make this this health pass that we need | ||
| In order to take part in everyday life To make that only available to people who are vaccinated and people who have a recovery certificate So it basically comes down to that if you are unvaccinated you are going to be barred from everyday life That's what they want. | ||
| That's what they want everywhere in Europe. | ||
| And it just depends where in Europe you are as to how far you basically are on this train that is headed towards tyranny. | ||
| Do they take as evidence natural immunity? | ||
| Do they take as evidence that herd immunity and natural immunity, that you don't need to be vaccinated if you've had the virus before and you have antibodies? | ||
| Any of the medical or health authorities or political authorities take that into consideration in Holland? | ||
| No, no. | ||
| I don't think I can recall even once that our Prime Minister even mentioned natural immunity. | ||
| So there's only this recovery certificate that you can get, but you can only get that once you are tested by official authority here. | ||
| And then you get it for, I think up to a year now, but that's it. | ||
| Like if you, if you don't get tested by the government, then you won't get the recovery certificate either. | ||
| So they really don't care about natural immunity. | ||
| It's very clear that they're trying to push the booster. | ||
| And actually the Dutch government has already said that we might be getting even up to six boosters. | ||
| in the next year. | ||
| So we're now getting our third, people are now getting their third, but they already bought the fourth, the fifth, and the sixth. | ||
| So Holland is ahead when it comes to these boosters, and it makes it very clear that this is not gonna end, even though, as you said, Omicron is very much so not a dangerous variant. | ||
| Real quickly, because I wanna hold you through the break, but in 30 seconds, Have you seen an increase in hospitalizations? | ||
| Was there any evidence like hospitalizations or anything that drove this or they just decreed this? | ||
| No, it was actually, the funny thing was that the hospitalizations and even the case numbers were already dropping the moment that they enforced this complete lockdown. | ||
| So there was literally no reason except for, again, pissing off people, driving them into despair. | ||
| For them to enforce this lockdown. | ||
| There is no other rational, logical explanation for this other than that they just want to get at their citizens. | ||
| Okay, hang on for a second. | ||
| That sounds like Macron talking, right? | ||
| To try to get to the unvaccinated, to try to piss them off. | ||
| Okay, we're going to take a short commercial break and return. | ||
| And I want to make sure everybody understands the Netherlands, Holland, the Dutch are among the most educated people on earth. | ||
| Okay, with a tremendous tradition for millennia of high education and learning. | ||
| Short commercial break. | ||
| We're going to return to Amsterdam when we return in The War Room. | ||

War Room, pandemic, with Stephen K. Bannon. | |
| The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide. | ||
| War Room, pandemic. Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Okay, welcome back. | ||
| For our American audience here, remember the great war film, A Bridge Too Far, off of Cornelius Ryan's book, Operation Market Garden. | ||
| That's the country we're talking about, Netherlands, with all the rivers that had to be crossed to get to the Rhine River, and one of the biggest operations in World War II, a tragically kind of a failed operation. | ||
| But heroism on all the all the allied troops and, of course, the book and the movie really plays up the Dutch underground, the resistance that helps so much with intelligence and all that. | ||
| Also, when I talk about great and this is why I wanted to talk about this, not about this lockdown and about science and rationality and not scientism, you know, data, evidence and fact. | ||
| The second, I think historically, most popular book in the Judeo-Christian West, in religious titles and back of the Holy Bible, has been a book called The Imitation of Christ. | ||
| And it was written, they say by Thomas Akempas, a very Dutch, but they think he might actually been the scribe. | ||
| It was a gentleman named Gerald Groot. | ||
| The Brethren of the Common Life, which was kind of a group of lay people that lived together in almost a monastic community and transcribed these great, the Gospels, but also came up and wrote the Imitation of Christ. | ||
| It came from that kind of monastic background. | ||
| Huge influence in the Middle Ages. | ||
| This is not just one of the most ancient part of our civilization. | ||
| But they've been known for, they've been known for their education. | ||
| And that's what's so important here in both Austria and Germany and France and now the Netherlands. | ||
| These are the countries that always been at the top, the ancient universities, the centers of great learning, the centers of science. | ||
| And now we're sitting in a situation in those four countries, Austria, Germany, France, and now the Netherlands, which is by far the worst, that it's shocking that – you talk about evidence and data and science, right? | ||
| And it's kind of thrown at the wheel. | ||
| Eva, I've got a question. | ||
| Are you, because you're a big media personality, are you on TV every night? | ||
| Are you on the equivalent of BBC or PBS here in the United States in hot debates with people about these lockdowns and the implication of mental health and what it's doing to kids and all that? | ||
| Is there a hot debate going on right now in the Netherlands between people that believe in liberty and believe in science and believe in data and evidence and the opposition forces? | ||
| Well, our mainstream media is exactly like yours. | ||
| So the answer is no. | ||
| They don't ever call me. | ||
| The things that I'm saying to your audience right now are things that you would never hear on television. | ||
| There's a reason for that. | ||
| They don't want this type of narrative out there because they don't want the movement to grow. | ||
| They will not even report on the huge demonstrations that we have here. | ||
| Or they will report on it and they'll lie about how many people showed up, right? | ||
| So no, there is none of that. | ||
| Absolutely not. | ||
| So the footage I saw, and I think was on Tommy Robinson's site, the footage I saw about these vicious beatdowns and dogs attacking people in Amsterdam, is that getting a lot of play inside the country? | ||
| And throughout the world we're seeing it. | ||
| It's kind of shocking because it's the most brutal of all the police attacks on the protesters. | ||
| Is that getting play inside the country? | ||
| Yes, but what they'll then say is that the protest was banned, which is true, by the way. | ||
| The mayor of Amsterdam banned that particular protest from happening. | ||
| Which in and of itself is already very scary. | ||
| Thinking about our fundamental rights are being infringed upon, are being violated in such an extensive way. | ||
| And then also they tried to take away our right to protest by banning these protests. | ||
| So a few people, including myself, or I should say thousands of people, decided that they were not going to need permission from the state to protest the state. | ||
| And so we went. | ||
| But yeah, some things got very out of hand. | ||
| We've seen Insane police brutality, the type of brutality that if that would happen in a country like Hungary, for example, here in Europe, or if that would happen in Russia, you would be sure that Amnesty International would be sounding the alarm that our Prime Minister would be the first one to speak out about the horrors going on elsewhere in the world. | ||
| But when it happens here, it's just like, oh no, but these people were here at an illegal protest, so they shouldn't have been there. | ||
| And people don't seem to feel bad about it. | ||
| They don't seem to see The problem with our state using this type of excessive violence towards people just for the mere fact that they were using their fundamental right to protest. | ||
| Just one last question before I let you go. | ||
| Given the great centers of learning, given that your country and your countrymen has historically been a source and beacon of light among the darkest days in the Judeo-Christian West of the Dark Ages and in certain times in the Middle Ages when learning was banned. | ||
| Have the universities, have the professors, have the scientists there been a voice to say, hey, we've really got to have a national conversation about the data and the evidence? Has there been anything coming from these great centers of learning? | ||
| I'm happy that you remember the true spirit of the Dutch because the people in our universities do not. In fact, the mainstream noise that you hear right now from our universities are people saying that we need even more control on the spread of misinformation. | ||
| They're trying to label people like me, like you, people who try to protest all of this, as people who are a threat to the state. | ||
| That's what they're doing. | ||
| So they're doing the exact opposite of what you would think a free-fighting spirit that was historically ours Would be. | ||
| But they have very much lost it. | ||
| And yeah, no, the sad thing is that the situation is getting more tense. | ||
| They are following the narrative of people like Macron, who say things like, oh, if you're an irresponsible person, you are not a citizen anymore. | ||
| You know, it's really getting very dangerous. | ||
| The narrative is really getting more grim by the day. | ||
| And the universities, the media, they're all on board with it. | ||
| Eva, how can people follow you on social media? | ||
| How can they get more access to your writing and to your clips and find out more about you? | ||
| Right, they can follow me on both Instagram and Twitter. | ||
| Those are my main profiles. | ||
| And it would be Eva and then Vlaar. | ||
| I didn't put the whole last name there to make it a little bit easier for people. | ||
| So Eva Vlaar is how they can find me. | ||
| Okay, thank you. | ||
| Very honored to have you here in the Worms. | ||
| Thank you very much. | ||
| Appreciate it. | ||
| Thank you so much. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you. | |
| This is how civilizations die. | ||
| This is how great civilizations die. | ||
| You're talking about the center of learning for two, three millennia, right? | ||
| You see what Groot and the Brethren of the Common Life and Erasmus came from there. | ||
| That was the mentor to St. | ||
| Thomas More. | ||
| I mean, this is the greatest learning in the Middle Ages. | ||
| A beacon of light against all that darkness, and look at this today. | ||
| This is how civilizations collapse. | ||
| I want to go now to Australia, one of my favorite countries, a great ally, just terrific people. | ||
| Senator Alex Antic. | ||
| Senator, we talked to you a couple of months ago, a month or so ago, when you were in lockdown. | ||
| Give us an update on yourself, and I think, you know, the Netherlands has just come up on a radarscope of what they've been doing the last couple weeks. | ||
| We've been seeing shocking footage out of Australia now for weeks and weeks and weeks. | ||
| Can you give us an update on what's going on? | ||
| Yeah, thanks Steve, and thanks for having me on. | ||
| Look, from a personal point of view, I was released from detainment. | ||
| Medi-hotel detainment, which your viewers are probably aware of, is, I think, a relatively uniquely Australian phenomenon where hotels I turned into detention facilities really with a metal fence and police down the bottom and people who have a suspicion of being COVID positive or have come back from travel are put there. | ||
| But 14 days and six negative COVID tests later, the health bureaucrats in the state were good enough to release me into my home. | ||
| And of course, you know, that's where that all begins and ends. | ||
| It's a disturbing tale, but it's not an uncommon one. | ||
| And we're seeing similar scenes, I have to say, hearing those comments from the lady from the Netherlands before. | ||
| I've got to say, it sounds frighteningly comparable to what's happening in parts of Australia. | ||
| We've seen heavy-handed protests in states like Victoria. | ||
| You would have seen the footage coming out of there. | ||
| Very similar things. | ||
| Police using strike-breaking tactics, firing rubber bullets, pepper-spraying people, even old people in certain instances. | ||
| And the tolerance of this freedom of speech, the tolerance for these protests, rings very true. | ||
| We have the same experience here. | ||
| They are demonised. | ||
| We have large numbers on the streets prior to Christmas, but it's not being reported by the charlatan mainstream media here, who simply turn a blind eye. | ||
| And if they do report on it, it's characterised as troublemakers on the streets You know, causing trouble. | ||
| So, look, I think the status quo has continued here. | ||
| Unfortunately, every time I think things are going to get better, we see an instance in this country where things get worse. | ||
| And there was a classic example of that a few days ago in our Northern Territory, which is scenery which is familiar to your viewers from the Crocodile Dundee movies. | ||
| It's real, you know, sort of no-nonsense territory, good solid people. | ||
| but their chief minister, a man by the name of Michael Gunner, has imposed directions on the people there which essentially target the unvaccinated. | ||
| If you're unvaccinated in the Northern Territory for a period of time in the future, you are barely able to leave your house, whereas those restrictions on liberty are not placed on people that have got two doses of the vaccine at the moment. | ||
| And you can only leave for emergency purposes, like getting groceries or medical treatment for yourself or a family member. | ||
| So I keep saying in this respect, where's the medical evidence about this? | ||
| Why is it that that's seen as being something that's important when we know that the issue of transmission is a nullity when it comes to vaccination? | ||
| We know that the unvaccinated are not dangerous to the community in the way they're being portrayed. | ||
| And yet that experience is being played out not only in this country, but across the world. | ||
| It is bizarre, it is illiberal and it is anti-science. | ||
| Senator, could you hold with us? | ||
| We're going to just go through the break. | ||
| We're going to turn to Australia. | ||
| The Senator from South Australia, Alex Antic, will join us on the other side in the War Room. | ||

| War Room. | ||
| Pandemic. | ||
| With Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide. | ||
| War Room. | ||
| Pandemic. | ||
| Let's take down the T.C.P. | ||
| 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. | ||
| By the way, we want to thank all of our audience in Australia. | ||
| We've got a big audience there and really, we would love to spend more time we're going to have to on these issues. | ||
| Senator Alex Antic is with us from Australia, from South Australia. | ||
| Senator, here's what I found and kind of when I crafted the show, I thought it might be like this, but what was chilling was Eva from Amsterdam was like she was describing what you guys have gone through in Australia, sir. | ||
| Yeah, it was, Steve. | ||
| And as I was sitting back listening to the sorts of things she was talking about, it struck me too that there's frightening similarities there. | ||
| I have to say, it's not across every facet of the country, it's not across every face, but we've seen those things playing out in Australia. | ||
| To use the example, she talked about her inability to be able to speak about these matters in a frank and fearless way in the mainstream media. | ||
| Well, that is entirely consistent with the Australian experience. | ||
| Our Australian Broadcasting Corporation here, who don't want to hear these stories, who report on these matters in a way that is essentially telling one side of the story, that is, if you don't get vaccinated and if you don't wear your masks and do what you're told, you're a bad citizen. | ||
| The ability to get this message out to people is almost impossible in this country. | ||
| Our print media are almost universally glossing over what we're seeing. | ||
| And so, you know, as I've said before, we've had hundreds and thousands, if not millions of people on the streets in this country over the last six months. | ||
| It barely gets reported. | ||
| And if it does, it gets reported in the most disingenuous terms. | ||
| Tens of thousands of people become hundreds. | ||
| It is gaslighting on a geopolitical level. | ||
| We're seeing a very similar pattern across the world, I think, and across all of these great Western liberal democracies that we talk about. | ||
| You know, here in Australia, We have a very unique place in our region. | ||
| As one of the shining lights of Western liberal democracies, we have worked tirelessly to push against the Chinese Communist Party here in rejecting the Huawei build of our 5G network, in pushing back into their influence in our institutions. | ||
| And yet, seemingly, we are adopting some of these social credit policies that seem to be coming from that. | ||
| The thin thread of democracy, as Ronald Reagan once said, freedom is only ever one generation away from being lost. | ||
| And I think we're seeing that across the globe at the moment. | ||
| I've got to go now, Australia, your situation there is now on the front page of every sports section and in the minds of everybody that loves sports. | ||
| Djokovic, tell us what's going on and is that going to, you think that could lance the boil here? | ||
| Because obviously they're not going to keep the number one player in the world from playing in the first of the Grand Slam events in one of the greatest sports institutions on earth, which is the Australian Open. | ||
| Well it is. | ||
| It's one of the great events and we love it here in Australia. | ||
| We look forward to it every year and so to see it descend into this sort of story is tragic really. | ||
| It's a great world event. | ||
| And look, part of the issue here is that he's, from what I understand and the story is evolving, has entered the country on the very clear understanding that he had an exemption. | ||
| To do so whatever his vaccination status is or whatever his personal situation is I don't know but he came here with that understanding and then upon arrival was told no you don't and you know you're off to a medi hotel which is as a fellow person of Serbian extraction I can I can feel the pain there and it is it is for particularly for an athlete like him it's very difficult but I guess the issue from my point of view is and I have to be a little bit careful because it is before the federal court at the moment so | ||
| Just speaking about that in broad terms, what I would say is, as I said earlier, we're a country that has made a shining example of the robust and effective liberal democracy that we are. | ||
| To be portraying this message on the world stage is a very, very dangerous thing. | ||
| And once again, I don't understand the science behind this. | ||
| I don't have any issue with people being cleared to come into the country, particularly with things like tuberculosis or whatever it may be. | ||
| But where's the science that shows that someone who Let's say he isn't vaccinated, poses a threat to the Australian community when we have hundreds and thousands, I think as many as three or four hundred thousand active cases in the community at the moment. | ||
| Why can't he take a test? | ||
| And I'll tell you what's happened. | ||
| Rather than it becoming a discussion in this country about the merits of the policy position, it's become a witch hunt against Novak. | ||
| Novak's become demonised as someone who now wants to come to this country like typhoid Mary and spread the disease. | ||
| Well, it's just a nonsense and it's doing great damage to our reputation out there. | ||
| in the community and I think it needs to be very carefully handled. | ||
| Senator, how can people follow you and get more information about what's going on and follow you more closely? | ||
| Well Steve, at the moment it's Facebook. | ||
| Senator Alex Antic on Facebook is the number one platform but I think we need to look into getting a getter account or something like that because I suspect for people like myself my days are numbered on the old big tech platforms. | ||
| Senator, thank you very much for joining us, getting up to speed on everything that's going on in Australia. | ||
| I appreciate it. | ||
| Thanks, Steve. | ||
| Great to be here. | ||
| Well, the common sense of the American people are going to see us through here. | ||
| You know, Biden yesterday with this this feckless, you know, throw down the Financial Times, you know, says here, oh, he's a threat to democracy, appeal for defense of U.S. | ||
| values. | ||
| It's all nonsense. | ||
| The business class is pulling out. | ||
| The business class supports the complete crackdown on on this nonsense they're talking about of 6th January. | ||
| But you see the polling numbers. | ||
| The American people, and particularly working class and middle class people, are seeing through all of this, and they hate the direction this country is headed. | ||
| And they're going to have a big voice, the voice, in turning this around. | ||
| I want to bring in Boris right now. | ||
| Boris, I've got to tell you, it's one of the reasons we've got Ben Harnwell and we focus so much on Europe. | ||
| Night is descending in Europe right now, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| Night is descending. | ||
| Just like in World War I and World War II, there is something very dangerous of what's happening there, when you can't even have a discussion. | ||
| When you have people like as intelligent as Eva, the lawyer in Amsterdam, you have Senator Alex Antic, and they're not on the BBC, they're not taking op-eds. | ||
| This is totalitarianism. | ||
| And I got to tell you, If we don't stand in the breach, it is going to happen here. | ||
| It's happening already, but we can see the dawn through the darkness, right? | ||
| But let's talk about this polling. | ||
| Reuters had a, and it kind of got lost in the shuffle yesterday, given everything that was going on, but there's some brutal polling out, once again, about this illegitimate regime. | ||
| Why don't you walk through it and then Denver can put up the charts as you talk about it. | ||
| Absolutely Denver if you go to the right track wrong track numbers right now and Steve honor to be back with you this afternoon this is so important so here we are this is Reuters Ipsos polling and Denver doing a great job as always and this is right track wrong track so right track is blue wrong track is a red and then don't know which is effectively wrong track is that gray so all adults are | ||
| 26%, just 26% of Americans believe this country is on the right track under Joe Biden. | ||
|
unidentified
|
26%. | |
| That is a quarter. | ||
| And that includes Democrats, which we'll go to next. | ||
|
unidentified
|
26%. | |
| Here's what really shocked me. | ||
| Among Democrats, Only 42% of Democrats believe the country is on the right track. | ||
| Again, let me say this loud and clear. | ||
| So nobody says, oh, this is, you know, Steve Bannon's war room, and this is Steve Bannon and Boris Epstein, they're all MAGA, which we are, obviously. | ||
| They're not giving us the clear picture. | ||
| This is Reuters Ipsos. | ||
| Which we'll show in the next slide, actually trying to tell us that Biden was above water overall at the end of December, which we know is false. | ||
| But could we—General, keep this up, please. | ||
| Keep the right track, wrong track up, please. | ||
| For the podcast audience, the radio audience, again, as I said, all adults, only 26 percent believe this country is on the right track. | ||
| Among Democrats, Only 42% of Democrats believe we're on the right track. | ||
| Among Republicans, somewhere they found 10% of Republicans think we're on the right track. | ||
| Maybe that's the Dick Cheney household. | ||
| Among Independents, Wow. | ||
| percent of independents believe that Joe Biden has us on the right track. | ||
| This is as brutal as it gets. And again, and I always want to point this out. This is not Trafalgar. This is the great, great shot. There's not Trafalgar. | ||
| This is not Rasmussen. | ||
| This isn't even Fox News. | ||
| This is Reuters Ipsos. | ||
| This is as mainstream as it gets. | ||
| And these numbers are absolutely annihilating. | ||
| Would you say, before we get to the, before we get to the, to the, to the, you know, we got the approvals, you got the right track, wrong track. | ||
| Steve Cortez said today that really in the history of polling, These are by far the worst numbers for any first year of any president, and obviously you don't have Buchanan's numbers because he didn't do it, but in addition he made the point that we've made over the last month, and now it's solidified, on the approval numbers. | ||
| That these are numbers that are lower than when Richard Nixon in August, I think it's 74, walked from the White House to Marine One to fly when he resigned the presidency over Wargate. | ||
| These are numbers that are so horrific to be unimaginable. | ||
| And here's another thing. | ||
| You can't turn this around. | ||
| If you look out in front of it today with all this, the new normal, I'm going to get rid of COVID, we're going to live with COVID, this fiasco at the Supreme Court where the liberal judges have no earthy idea what's going on, not even a grasp of the construct, can't even ask intelligent questions! | ||
| This is what progressivism has gotten you, since they don't have any kind of control mechanism of having a free press that can challenge their arrogance and their smugness, and this is what you get, Boris Epstein. | ||
| You get brain mush. | ||
| That's what you get. | ||
| You get the leadership that you deserve in Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. | ||
| And you get these numbers, which, Steve, I love to point this out, and I think it cuts through, always signal that noise for the audience, The happiest person in history at these numbers is James Buchanan. | ||
| Because James Buchanan is no longer the worst president in American history. | ||
| It is Joe Biden. | ||
| And Joe Biden has got there in record time. | ||
| It's mathematical. | ||
| It's mathematical. | ||
| It's clear math. | ||
| Let's put it this way. | ||
| I'm going to go out there and say this. | ||
| Joe Biden is less popular than Abraham Lincoln was in the South. | ||
| Yeah, no, and here's the thing, the reason we keep bringing these up every day, they pop, they're very consistent, which shows you trend. | ||
| Any one can be a little bit off. | ||
| But this is now, and this is why it's going to be so difficult, he's lost the American people. | ||
| And Kamala Harris's backup, the Adams family cabinet he's got, Buttigieg and Kamala Harris in this crowd, there's no sense Yeah, Janet, you know, there's no sense that anybody's at home there. | ||
| I want to go, though, if Denver's got it, real quick, because we've only got a couple of minutes here, we're going to get Greitens on next, is the list of issues to the American people. | ||
| The whole democracy thing doesn't even rank in the top ten! | ||
| It's things like the economy and handling COVID and the immigration, the open borders. | ||
| It's things that are kind of in your inflation, jobs. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's the practicality of the American people. | |
| They're very practical. | ||
| Boris, tell me about the interest and concerns the American people are totally different than you see. | ||
| This is why I wanted to play the insurrection every day. | ||
| Give me a little Jamie Raskin. | ||
| Give me Benny Thompson. | ||
| Let me have a little Liz Cheney every night. | ||
| Give me Dick Cheney in drag with the with the wig. | ||
| Let me have that. | ||
| Let me let me have, you know, Adam, little Adam. | ||
| Let me have them all every day, nonstop, because the American people got a belly for it. | ||
| We've got a minute. | ||
| Boris, wrap it up here for us. | ||
| The American people care about the same thing they cared about 20 years ago and 40 years ago. | ||
| They care about security. | ||
| And it's economic security and it's national security. | ||
| That's what it comes down to. | ||
| And I'm so shocked not to see trans rights on this list. | ||
| Wrong! | ||
| The American people are not AOC's Twitter account. | ||
| And the sooner these pathetic Democrats realize that, the more of a chance they have to save their party. | ||
| But they're nowhere close. | ||
| And that is why 2021 was the year of MAGA, and 2022 is going to be the year of MAGA squared. | ||
| Because the War Room Posse, the MAGA movement under the leadership of President Trump, can't wait to have him here in Arizona on the 15th. | ||
| It's going to be hot. | ||
| This is what it is. | ||
| And the polling from these mainstream outlets only proves it. | ||

| Wow, that was by, and I want to thank Getter and our audience on there and for our live shows and also the Follow Me. | ||
| That was an audience member that watches and heard me whining. | ||
| Supposed to be no whining in the War Room. | ||
| I've been whining about the new Getter ad. | ||
| It didn't have the music. | ||
| I thought it was a little slow. | ||
| He went back and re-cut it with the old music. | ||
| That is from right there. | ||
| Not from Getter, that's from an audience member that put the old music To the ad. | ||
| To the new ad. | ||
| By the way, it said 3 million or something. | ||
| I think there's 4 million, another million joined this week. | ||
| Almost a million active every day on it non-stop. | ||
| Make sure you go. | ||
| Tomorrow, we're having a special. | ||
| We're going to be breaking all the news. | ||
| We've got a lot going on. | ||
| On polling, on news, on politics. | ||
| We're going throughout the world of what's happening on the virus. | ||
| But also, the core of it is going to be Twitter's war against, or war on, I think it is. | ||
| MAGA. | ||
| And we're going to have Jason Miller, the CEO, former President Trump strategist and comms director, is going to be in the studio. | ||
| We've got Posobiec. | ||
| We've got a lot going on. | ||
| We're going to have some surprise guests. | ||
| You know why? | ||
| Because tomorrow is really the most important anniversary. | ||
| Not January 6th, January 8th. | ||
| That's when Twitter, a year ago, took down President Donald J. Trump's Twitter account. | ||
| And we're going to commemorate that, and we're going to talk about it, and we're going to talk about the implications of it. | ||
| Remember, Miles Guo told me a couple of years ago, he used to be saying it on his broadcast all the time, that social media are the new nuclear weapons. | ||
| They're more powerful than nuclear weapons, because they can shut down an entire government, and they can shut down President Trump. | ||
| Who at the time, January 8th of last year, he was Commander-in-Chief, President of the United States, Chief Executive Officer of the United States Government, and also Chief Magistrate, right? | ||
| Shut down by Twitter. | ||
| Okay, I want to bring in now Eric Greitens. | ||
| Eric, we've had Boris on here. | ||
| We've gone around the world and seen this kind of madness, you know, everything from being shut down in Netherlands, total lockdown, about to get to the unvaccinated in Austria, Austria and France, or it's Germany. | ||
| Disaster, chaos in Australia. | ||
| The Supreme Court today on these mandates, no offense, the liberal judges were infantile in their questioning and understanding of this virus. | ||
| What's going on in Missouri about this? | ||
| About people's sense of this? | ||
| And also, yesterday, 6th January, you had Karl Rove on with Brian Kiel, very disappointed Brian Kiel and me this morning with Karl Rove. | ||
| Talking about it's all MAGA's fault. | ||
| It's all Trump's fault. | ||
| These guys ought to be broomed out everywhere. | ||
| We're the rhinos in Missouri and where do we stand with Omicron? | ||
| Well, I can tell you this, Steve. | ||
| We have been extraordinarily strong behind President Trump to get to the truth about January 6th. | ||
| What you've seen time and time again, this is just another example, you've got the left lying. | ||
| You've got the left weaponizing the law. | ||
| You've got the left with this crazy committee with Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger. | ||
| What are they doing? | ||
| They're using it to go after President Trump's allies and everybody in Missouri sees it. | ||
| They see him attacking you, attacking Bernie Karrick, attacking Mark Meadows. | ||
| They are using that committee to attack President Trump's allies, and nobody in Missouri is fooled. | ||
| People in Missouri do want to know, why did Nancy Pelosi turn down 10,000 National Guard troops? | ||
| People in Missouri have gotten the facts, and they want to know, why hasn't Ray Epps been arrested? | ||
| Was he, were other people who were inciting people at the Capitol, were they actually being paid by the FBI? | ||
| People want to know the answers to those questions. | ||
| You know, Abraham Lincoln, he always said, he said, you can trust the American people to rise to any crisis, you just have to get them the facts. | ||
| And that's why War Room is so important. | ||
| That's what Darren Beatty at Revolver News is doing is so important. | ||
| That's why just the news is so important, is that people are going out in Missouri. | ||
| They're getting the facts. | ||
| And here in Missouri, you won't be surprised. | ||
| Most of the RINOs, all the people I'm running against for the U.S. | ||
| Senate, they took this opportunity on January 6th to do what they've always done. | ||
| They cowered. | ||
| They cowered. | ||
| This is what rhinos do. | ||
| They have cowered in the face of election integrity questions. | ||
| They've been cowards and they haven't stood up to support the president. | ||
| They've done it in the face of COVID tyranny, in the face of BLM and Antifa. | ||
| Now is a time to fight because as you pointed out, Steve, really Western civilization is at stake. | ||
| It's not too much to say. | ||
| Western civilization is at stake in this moment. | ||
| We have to stand up and fight. | ||
| You know, CNN said, had this piece today saying, hey, we don't think it's maybe not really the elected Republican officials that are the problem. | ||
| The real problem, the deep problem is the toxic electorate of the Republican Party. | ||
| And you see now in the numbers, they all detest across the board, independents, even Democrats are rejecting Joe Biden, the worst president in American history. | ||
| Are folks at Missouri, are you seeing the same thing as Missouri? | ||
| Are the people out there getting it? | ||
| Are they opposed to what Biden is trying to do? | ||
| People in Missouri absolutely get it. | ||
| They are opposed to Joe Biden. | ||
| They watched his military disaster in Afghanistan. | ||
| They've seen his weakness overseas. | ||
| They've seen the consequences of the open border policy. | ||
| They've seen rising violence, a massive increase in the murder rate. | ||
| They're watching what's happening with inflation. | ||
| This is affecting every single person in the state of Missouri. | ||
| It's affecting every American. | ||
| And people are starting to recognize not just how crazy the left is, but they're also seeing through all of the mainstream media lies And at the same time, they're also seeing through the games of the disgusting rhinos who refuse to stand up and fight against the left. | ||
| People are on it. | ||
| They see, they recognize the truth. | ||
| And that's why you're seeing numbers like that, where Joe Biden has completely cratered. | ||
| Here in Missouri, people know the crazy left and the weak rhinos aren't going to get it done. | ||
| We need the America First movement, the supporters of President Trump and MAGA to take control. | ||
| Commander Gritens, how do people get to you on social media? | ||
| How do they get to learn more about you and your campaign? | ||
| Well, Steve, we welcome everybody to come out and join us. | ||

| Thanks, man. | ||
| Okay, tomorrow is the real anniversary we're going to commemorate. | ||
| January 8th of 2021. | ||
| The day that Twitter, the tech oligarchs, shut down the 45th President of the United States, Donald J. Trump. |
