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

War Room.
Pandemic.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
steve bannon
Stocks plummet as interest rates rise.
A huge drop in the market at the opening day.
Goldman Sachs missed their earnings, I think, by 8%.
They're getting crushed right now.
We're going to have Dr. Navarro on here in a minute and tie together economics, the stock market, the Biden, radical Biden agenda, the entire collapse now.
As we told you, we're looking into an abyss of the economy.
It started and the markets are finally catching up with Dr. Navarro's.
Early November call on all this happening.
Remember Cortez and Navarro were the first guys to talk about this a year ago on the afternoon after Joe Biden's, the illegitimate regime of Joe Biden, took hold of our government.
And now everybody's going to pay for it.
OK, we're going to walk through all of that.
We've got so much to get through today.
A lot of guests, a lot of information, a lot of news.
I want to start with, it's got to be a busy day, didn't even do a cold open, drunk the cold open because we just got to press on.
I want to start, want to go to Texas with Attorney General Ken Paxson.
Ken, very disturbing, you and I have talked over the weekend, there's an article up I think on Town Hall, an incredible piece, it's kind of mind-blowing, when we think of these radical Um, D.A.s that we have in New York City and in L.A.
that are put in, in Chicago, these D.A.s that are put in by Soros.
We think of defund the police and not enforcing the law.
And a nurse, a 70-year-old nurse, African-American nurse, Gets beaten to death at a bus stop in L.A.
An Asian-American woman gets pushed in front of a train in New York City.
A young woman, I think in graduate school at UCLA, working over in Melrose in a furniture store, gets butchered, gets cut knife to death in the store in broad daylight.
And it's because these DAs, on this way Soros wants to sow anarchy in our country.
You have these massive metropolitan areas with Soros-backed DAs, and you've got them at other places too, in St.
Louis, it's just an endemic problem across the country.
But you've actually brought to our attention something more shocking.
And we need the War Room Posse totally focused on this.
As Ken walks us through it, this is really a source-backed plan to get involved in the elections and to make sure that the Democrats... Remember, the only way Democrats can win is steal.
And when I say steal, the only way they can do it is to make sure that they have tons of non-citizen or illegal non-chain-of-custody votes.
If they get that, they win.
Technically, quote-unquote, win.
They don't get that, they lose.
And they understand it.
That's why they're so freaked out about this audience volunteering to become election officials, like in the Commonwealth of Virginia.
But what's shocking is Ken Paxson.
This is how smart these folks are.
And I keep telling you, that's why we study The Guardian.
That's why we have MSNBC.
It doesn't help us to just look at right-wing media or conservative media or Fox or anything like that.
You have to understand what the enemy's doing.
And this is insidious what's going on in Texas and quite frankly shocking about how and we're going to have to figure out how to stop it.
Ken Paxson, Attorney General of Texas.
Will you walk us through it, sir?
unidentified
Yeah, this is like a backdoor way of doing exactly what Joe Biden is trying to do with H.R.
1.
December 15, two days after the filing deadline for anybody to run against anybody on the Court of Appeals, they came out and struck down a statute from 1951 that tells the Attorney General to prosecute voter fraud.
Well, why is that decision such a problem?
That decision is such a problem because these other counties like Travis, which is Austin, Bexar, which is San Antonio, Houston, they have very liberal DAs who have been funded by George Soros.
So they're not going to prosecute voter fraud and that is the only alternative.
So we'll have all of these counties where everybody will know Hey, there's no downside to cheating.
There's no downside to illegals voting as they come across the border.
We won't be able to stop it.
There's no, no, I can't do anything about it.
Nobody else could.
And these local DAs who are, who are funded by Soros will just let it happen.
Maybe, maybe even encourage it.
So this is a Republican court that did this eight to one, and we have asked for a motion to rehear this case because we need this court to overturn it because they are, they are like the Supreme Court for criminal matters.
There's nowhere else to appeal it.
steve bannon
Okay, hold on, slow down.
Some people don't understand the structure, because when I first heard about this over the weekend, I was kind of shocked that that didn't all naturally report up to the Attorney General.
Tell us, describe what the Court of Appeals is in Texas, why it's so powerful, and why these DAs, why this Soros-backed group could do it with a Republican-controlled court?
It's 8 to 1 Republican, so this is, people are not going to understand, they're not going to comprehend any of this, so walk us through it.
unidentified
Yeah, so in Texas, I think we're one of two states that has a bifurcated court system.
We have a criminal side and a civil side.
The Texas Supreme Court handles all appeals on civil matters.
The criminal matters go to the Texas Criminal Court of Appeals.
And unfortunately, most Texans, even most lawyers, don't pay attention to who's elected to that criminal court of appeals.
However, the district attorneys do.
And the district attorneys in Texas have tremendous power.
They have original jurisdiction in every case.
Every criminal case, except voter fraud.
And one of the challenges that we have had is, if they decide not to prosecute, which a lot of them have decided not to prosecute, shoplifting and other crimes, then nothing can be done.
And fortunately, the legislature, the ability for the Attorney General, pursuant to the Constitution, to do this.
And the Criminal Court of Appeals came along and said, nope, The DAs are in charge of this.
We're going to strike down that law.
We're going to ignore this provision of the Constitution.
We're going to overrule our own precedent.
We're going to overrule the precedent of the Supreme Court.
And the result is, by this November, if we don't get this changed, I think it's very likely we could lose five members of the Texas Supreme Court who are up.
We could lose my position.
We could lose Governor.
It's just a matter of whether it's this time, the next time, or the next time, we're done in Texas if anybody can vote.
steve bannon
Okay, so explain to me on an 8-1 court of Republicans how this passed.
unidentified
Came as a complete surprise to me, to my staff.
We just thought this was a joke.
I mean, we didn't think this was, you know, had any chance.
We had any chance of losing.
We have like 38,000 cases going.
This was just one of them.
And then they hit us with this.
And the timing is clearly planned.
Filing deadline in Texas.
You're going to run for public office, including these judges.
There's nine of them.
And they have six-year terms.
And every two years, you have three up.
Well, the three that were up decided, when filing opened November 13, they didn't make their ruling.
This case has been going on a long time.
They waited to make their ruling until the deadline was closed on December 13.
And conveniently, two days later, they ruled.
And it's shocking that it's Republicans.
But here's the deal.
The district attorneys are the ones that focus on these positions.
They're the ones that fund these, that give, and I'm very concerned that they may have slipped some bias without us really knowing what these people believe.
steve bannon
But how do the judges, an 8-1 Republican, how do they not understand that this opens up the ability for source-backed DAs not to prosecute?
Voter fraud in the biggest, you know, Harris County, you got Houston, you've got Dallas, you have San Antonio, you have Austin, right?
How did that get by them and how important this was?
That's what I'm still confused about.
unidentified
So that's the thing that's surprising.
I don't think they're surprised by it.
I think this was planned.
I think they've been working on this for probably a decade to get the DAs in the right place and then to get the right people on the Criminal Court of Appeals.
This was no accident.
The fact that it was timed exactly after their filing deadline.
They've had this case for a long time and then it was time to give them really full control of the next election.
This is not an accident.
This was planned.
These Republican judges didn't, for the most part, I don't think accidentally made the wrong decision.
Now there may have been a few that got sucked into this by others on the court, but this was not some accident.
steve bannon
Okay, we're going to get the photos and who these judges are.
We're going to go into this in detail.
Given where we are, given what Texas law is, what are Ken Paxson and Governor Greg Abbott going to do about it?
unidentified
So we filed a motion to rehear, giving the court, because we have nowhere to appeal since this is the highest court on this issue.
So we filed a motion to rehear.
We've laid out our case.
We've asked them to hear our case again.
They could literally, summarily deny it.
We're getting amicus briefs from grassroots leaders, from political leaders.
I truly believe the governor is going to write an amicus brief.
The state senate is going to write an amicus brief.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
steve bannon
You truly believe the governor is going to write an amnesty brief?
Does he not realize that this is General Quarters, how important this is?
I mean, he's running for re-election and he aspires to be president of these United States.
Does he not?
And Texas is a linchpin of any, Florida and Texas are the foundational elements of a MAGA.
Does Governor Abbott not realize how important this is?
unidentified
I think he does, and I've been told he's working on an amicus brief, so hopefully that is the case, because we need it as quickly as we can get it, along with these other amicus briefs that are being worked on right now.
steve bannon
Is motion to appeal it?
The Texas legislature can't step in here?
The governor of Texas can't step in here?
This is an overwhelmingly Republican state.
It's an overwhelmingly MAGA state.
Is there any other alternative besides a motion to appeal that looks like a rigged deal with these judges?
unidentified
It is a motion to rehear.
We have no appeal since this is the highest court.
And what they did that was so genius is they said it was unconstitutional.
So, presumably, to fix this, we'd have to go back, call a special session of legislature, and get a constitutional amendment passed which requires two-thirds of both houses on a vote of the people, which won't happen because the Democrats won't vote for it.
steve bannon
Okay, so, given that you've got a motion to rehear, other than that, what is it?
unidentified
So, if they fail on that, we're going to have to have a special session of legislature before the next election.
And I think pass both civil and criminal statutes, giving me the authority, giving the authority to individuals to go sue with large penalties, anything related to voter fraud.
And second, I'd have the legislature re-pass another criminal statute, maybe more strong than the one they even have, and make the Criminal Court of Appeals come back and strike it down again.
Because it would take several years to go through that process, and at least we could keep that in place.
Okay, you're going to keep us updated on this?
What can people do?
Where do people go right now?
I can tell you the posse is already quite, how do I say, heated on this one.
got an opponent. Defeat him and then every three years, you know, target the Court of Criminal Appeals to take those people out that voted the wrong way.
steve bannon
Okay, you're gonna keep us updated on this? What can people do? Where do people go right now? I can tell you the posse is already quite, how do I say, heated on this one. So where do they go? Well, here's the deal.
unidentified
This is the most important case I've ever dealt with, maybe in my lifetime, even more than all this Obama-Biden stuff.
I would tell them to contact the Court of Criminal Appeals, write them, email them, call them.
Let them know that people are paying attention, because I think what they thought was going to happen was no one was going to notice, and they were going to slip it by.
So let's at least force them to know the world knows what they're doing.
And if they are successful, obviously we're in trouble.
The state's in trouble, the country's in trouble.
steve bannon
Okay.
We'll set things right here.
Attorney General Paxson, how do people follow you on social media?
By the way, for the posse, we're going to get all the information up there about these folks so you know who they are.
We're going to make them all famous, and they have to understand they're going to be made famous.
Very famous.
On a global scale.
unidentified
That is awesome.
That's exactly what they need to be known because nobody knows who they are.
And Kevin Urie was the only dissenting judge.
I have a lot of respect for that guy for standing up and doing the right thing.
To follow me, it's KenPaxson.com.
And then on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook, it's at KenPaxsonTX.
steve bannon
OK.
Attorney General Paxson, thank you very much for joining us here in the War Room.
unidentified
Hey, thank you.
I really appreciate it.
steve bannon
Yes, sir.
For the audience, the reason people come here and they want to break these type of stories is because of the activist nature and your engagement.
And that's what's got the left obviously freaked out.
But here's the takeaway.
They can only do things in the dead of night.
They can only do... They're shipping folks up from El Paso into Scranton, you know, trying to pass bills.
This, you know, in the dark of night, this is how they run.
When you put the spotlight on them, they start running around like cockroaches.
And we're going to put the spotlight on... We're not going to allow Texas to be in play in 22 or 24.
Impossible.
Good try, Soros.
Good try, Mark Elias.
Your sneaky, sneaky ways are exposed every day in the war room.
Peter Navarro made the massive call.
Economy's bottom's blowing out of it right now.
Peter Navarro here to tell us why, next.
peter navarro
It's simply, there was no place else for money to go but the stock market.
And so, at some point, it's a game, Steve, of musical chairs, where at some point, the big short starts.
And now, hang on, January 2021, I said this would be the year of big shorts.
Two weeks ago on this show, and we're gonna get a clip of that for the 5 o'clock show, I said, I'm going today, I'm going short on this market, okay?
So this Bannon's War Room, okay, you can choose to watch CNBC, Bloomberg, or Fox Business, or Bannon's War Room, and this is the only place where you got a short call.
steve bannon
Okay, so that was from, your original call was back on November 11th.
Let's walk through this.
What happened today, bottom falling out of the market, for what reason?
I want to walk people through the, because we're trying to teach people how capital markets relate to government finance and how that relates to their lives.
Since you're paying for it, ladies and gentlemen, this is what I want you to embrace.
It's your money.
And with money comes power, and with power comes control.
Are we all set on this?
We're going to connect one dot after the other.
The thing that has happened is that people haven't told you you've had power.
You have all the power.
And they don't want you to understand this because they don't want you to use that power.
You have all the leverage.
Goldman Sachs, M&A Department, 101.
Who has the leverage in a transaction, in a deal?
It would be you, deplorables.
Awaken to your own power.
Peter Navarro, what's happened here?
You and Cortez back at the... We're coming up on one year anniversary, I think Thursday, of this illegitimate regime.
And you guys called it that afternoon about stagflation.
But now we're seeing the reality of it.
It's hitting capital markets.
Walk through what's going on.
unidentified
Yeah.
peter navarro
November 10th, I called a short on the market.
Basically, Steve, the principle here is that both the stock market and the bond market are leading indicators of where the economy is going.
So for example, when you have the stock market begin to go down, that's going down on an expectation of lower earnings because of slower growth.
That's the stag part of stagflation.
When you have bond prices plummet, interest rates are inversely related, so bond prices down means interest rates up.
That's signaling the inflation part of the stagflation.
So all we're doing here, Steve, is like when Cortez and I back in January say that there's going to be stagflation over a year ago, then November I make the market call.
It's basically everything's coming along.
It's a Biden-inspired crash.
Biden unwound the Trump policies.
That's going to slow growth down.
Congress and Biden are spending way too much money and being accommodated by the Fed.
That's going to drive inflation up.
This isn't rocket science.
The problem with the financial news networks, both Fox Business and CNBC, as well as Bloomberg, they never want them to say the S word, the short word, OK?
Because it's a big cheerleader for equity markets.
But when you see Goldman Sachs drop 8 percent, the Dow dropped 500 today.
And by the way, Since I made that call on November 10th, both the Russell and the Nasdaq went down very, very significantly.
The Dow and S&P 500 have been kind of like hovering.
Now it's like, boom, Katy bar the door.
So this is a Biden-engineered crash that is coming.
It's a slow-motion train wreck.
steve bannon
I just want a couple of things people understand.
When he talks about the Russell Index, I think they take every stock that trades.
Small caps.
peter navarro
Small caps.
2,000 companies, small caps.
You've got the S&P 500, which are the top ones.
You've got the Dow, which is the industrials.
And then the Nasdaq is all the tech, the Amazons and all of that stuff.
And what you're seeing now is each of these markets have taken turns.
The techs in the small caps led the way from my market call in terms of going down.
Now the big caps, the Dow, is catching up to that.
But look, the point here for your viewers, I'm not giving financial advice here.
What I'm telling you is an economic forecast based on the stock and bond market.
And Steve, the other subtle thing here, a little Econ 101, you don't often see Bond prices and stock prices go down at the same time.
They're typically inversely related, because if stock prices are going down, that's recession.
That means interest rates are going down and bond prices are going up.
The fact that that's not happening here is the strongest signal of stagflation, because stock prices down, stagnation.
Bond prices down, inflation.
Go down at the same time, stagflation forecast.
steve bannon
Write that in English, I can't understand it.
My producer's handing me something.
Here's the more fundamental thing for people in the audience right now, other than capital markets, because capital markets are reactive to this.
You've had these cheerleaders like Jim Cramer and others, Jamie Dimon, up there cheerleading for Biden's economic plan, which we've said is a disaster.
And Cramer was on TV saying the greatest economy in his life.
In his life, just a couple weeks ago.
This is right now, you've got oil at $85 a barrel, right?
They're about to announce they're going to redo the forecast for the first quarter, slowing the GDP.
You could see the hint of that yesterday.
The reason Goldman Sachs is so important of missing their earnings, why is that important?
Why do we focus on that?
Because in this complex financial capital market driven world, Who would have a better understanding of it than Goldman Sachs?
When they miss earnings that badly, that is a bad sign.
Everybody in the world, capital markets, is going, hey, if the Goldman guys missed it this badly, it's worse than we thought.
Okay?
That's why the stock's off so much.
You have every indication right now.
peter navarro
Let me say one thing about your alma mater here.
It's like when expectations are missed, that's not Goldman inside Goldman.
Missing the expectations.
That's the analysts watching Goldman.
You can bet your sweet bippy that the people inside Goldman knew exactly what was coming, and they were probably taking appropriate countermeasures inside.
I'd love to see what they were doing in their own portfolios.
But Goldman, look, let's be clear about Goldman Sachs.
I know you worked there at one point.
You got the hell out of there.
And God bless you for that.
But Goldman is the big offshore in the sky.
Goldman is why we have fragile rather than resilient supply chains.
Nobody should shed a tear for Goldman Sachs.
I think the bigger problem here is that what we're seeing now is an across-the-board macro collapse.
And I go back, I always love to go from the micro up.
Here we are in Washington, D.C., Steve.
Muriel Bowser, the mayor, has killed, killed this city.
It's like a neutron bomb has hit this place.
There's nothing going on.
You go to the Safeway, there's no food on the shelves.
You go to a restaurant, it's tax cards.
You've got stores that are saying, we're closed here for the next two hours because we don't have staff.
And this is all VAX mandates.
It's just Biden incompetence and Muriel Bowser incompetence.
You know, Chicago, New York, all of our major cities are creating these service sector refugees that are going to have nowhere to go.
And the markets are catching up to all of this.
unidentified
By the way, the housing market is the next one to roll over.
steve bannon
Big time.
Can we play the supply chain thing from CNBC to reinforce what Navarro tells us?
Here's CNBC.
unidentified
China's going to do what China's going to do in terms of imposing restrictions, but how much of this could be at least positively impacted by moves that the Biden administration takes?
I think there's limited possibilities for the Biden Administration to solve this problem.
Look, what determines prices are the goods on the shelf, the goods back in the warehouse, and the goods on the way from the manufacturer.
All three of those things are challenged right now, and so until we build up inventories in the warehouse or from the manufacturer, we're going to have some trouble with prices.
It's the reason why the Fed has pivoted, the Federal Reserve has pivoted, and now sees Omicron and virus outbreaks as inflationary before they were worried about the idea that hey it would reduce demand That's not the problem. The problem is it reduces workers?
It keeps good from getting to the stores And so right now what that means is the Federal Reserve is more concerned about inflation I'm gonna raise interest rates more this year and that's one of the reasons why the market this morning is taking it on the chin This about the supply, but why don't they watch the war rooms?
You've been saying this stuff for like... Hang on a second, hang on a second.
steve bannon
Carnwell's reporting, they're talking about the spread of Omicron into the port cities of China.
Zero Hedge with the mother of all supply chain tsunamis is coming.
CNBC's finally awoken to that and now they're nervous.
Peter Navarro, give us a minute.
On supply chain, on this inflation, on the firestorm of inflation, it's just not demand pull by the overprinting of money and spending.
It is also on the demand, on the push side, on supply side, what you call the broken supply chain, sir.
peter navarro
Well, the universal VAX policy was like a death blow at the worst possible time for the supply chain.
And it began months ago, because you had truckers, you had pilots, you had warehouse workers.
A certain fraction of that workforce simply would not cooperate with the universal VAX policy.
And you have threshold effects.
If suddenly, in a port, things are piling up, It becomes impossible to unpile them.
That's where we're at now.
What we've got is, it's coming at us from China now.
Tianjin, I can't emphasize how big that port is and how important that port is in terms of the export machine that's called China.
And what I see as kind of the next shoe to drop is China is going to begin to protect their own supply chains.
They're not going to be shipping us parts so factories can produce here at all.
They're going to keep it all there.
That's going to exacerbate everything else that we've got.
And by the way, this whole Olympics thing, it's absolutely critical that those Olympics get cancelled right now because what's going on there?
I think Macbeth said it first and Bannon said it second.
Something wicked this way comes.
There's something really Really bad going on in China right now with some kind of mutation, it looks like, and that's why Beijing is freaking out and closing everything up.
You can't get a flight now from the United States to China because you're fearful of what's going on.
This is unprecedented, Steve.
steve bannon
Unprecedented.
You overruled Fauci.
Real quickly, how to find you on Getter, the Torticula?
peter navarro
Real P. Navarro, and it is the Twitter killer.
Twitter's stock is down since Getter debuted in July.
It's gone down from something like 70 now to 35.
So the markets tell you the truth.
steve bannon
We've got to bounce.
Fantastic call.
Go back to work.
We'll pull you back out tomorrow morning.
unidentified
Dr. Peter Navarro.
peter navarro
Yeah, this is like a vacation, Steve.
I'm getting a tan from the lights.
steve bannon
Senator Roger Marshall next on Tony Fauci in the War Room.
unidentified
Will you commit today to release all records, fully unredacted, by the end of this week so Congress and the American people can know the truth about NIH's role and the origins of COVID-19?
So, again, Senator, it really pains me to have to just point out to the American public how absolutely incorrect you are.
What came out last night on Project Veritas was a grant that was submitted to DARPA.
Then it distorted and said, we funded the grant.
We have never seen that grant, and we have never funded that grant.
So once again, you are completely and unequivocally incorrect when you join the DARPA proposal was a grant that we never saw and we did not fund.
So you are incorrect.
Our social media will have all the supporting documents and we'll be supporting these through the record as well.
You are backing down on this?
Why don't we go and look at the very top statement?
They were talking about a grant.
steve bannon
Denver, you can take that down.
That's obviously Tony Fauci.
I want to introduce and bring in Senator Roger Marshall of Kansas, Republican of Kansas.
A dramatic confrontation with Dr. Tony Fauci last week.
Normally it's Rand Paul it seems, or at least gets the media, but Senator Marshall has been all over.
Senator Marshall, before we get into this, I just want to, because I don't think a ton of people maybe outside of Kansas understand your professional knowledge of this area.
Can you walk us just briefly through your background?
unidentified
Yeah, so I'm a fifth-generation farm kid, became a first-generation college student.
My American dream was to become a physician.
God was blessed beyond my wildest dreams.
Got to go back and practice medicine as an obstetrician in Great Bend, Kansas for some 30 years.
Delivered about 5,000 babies.
And probably more relevant to this topic is I've taken care of thousands of patients with viruses.
I've oversaw three county health departments who had to work with the CDC and try to interpret what they were trying to communicate to the public.
So, I've lived out here in the public, also an Army doctor as well, so I do understand some of this virology, and I certainly understand gain-of-function, and how Dr. Sheila can on this issue.
steve bannon
I just want to go through that, then give me your professional expertise, because you've had to sit through these hearings and get all the information.
Just walk through, you've asked pretty straightforward questions, and it seems like Tony Fauci, particularly against you, tries to obfuscate every answer.
Can you tell the audience, what are you trying to get to with Fauci?
What's your endgame?
What type of information are you trying to get out of him?
unidentified
Right.
Steve, I think we're over the target.
He is part of this deep state that is actually lying or certainly misleading to the public.
He lied to Congress and to the American people at least three times during that last hearing, and we proved him wrong.
He talked about his financials, that they were publicly available, where they weren't, and we proved that wrong.
The highest paid public official making over $430,000 a year.
He made over $2 million a year during 2020 while the economy was locked down.
On the gain of function issue here, and what we're talking about in that tape, is you talk about the deep state.
I'm learning so much about the deep state.
But what they did on this particular issue was a project called Project Diffuse, They asked the Department of Defense to fund it, and the Department of Defense said, no, this is viral gain-of-function studies.
We're not going to do it.
But what I've learned from the deep state is if you want to hide something, don't classify it and then place it in a secure annex of some sort.
So they hid this file on why they turned it down, but then Dr. Fauci turns around and funds it through EcoHealth with research in Wuhan, China.
This is like doing nuclear research with Iran.
And you believe the stuff that we're uncovering here.
We want to get at the truth, is the answer to the question.
steve bannon
But listen, you're, you know, the Midwest, Wisconsin, Iowa, Kansas, kind of Kansas nice, but you've sat through enough of these hearings.
You've been relentless on this.
You just used a phrase there, it's pretty provocative.
Are you saying, because Tony Fauci is one of the most senior guys in the government, it's not just his salary of $430,000, he controls tens of billions of dollars of research.
It's one of the reasons he and Collins were so powerful, and it shouldn't be lost on people.
You just said Tony Fauci lied.
That's a pretty big charge.
in the administrative state just retired December 31st because he knew this was coming. He did not want to sit through hearings where he's got to answer Dr.
Roger Marshall's questions right in the Senate. You just said Tony Fauci lied.
That's a pretty big charge. Is that is that your firm belief as the documented evidence that you and your staff have seen? I think he has.
unidentified
I think he lied, saying that the NIH has never funded viral gain-of-function.
Happy to go down that trail.
Certainly he lied when he said that the public had easy access to his financials.
And then thirdly, this Rand Paul story, where Rand Paul is trying to say, look, you use your influence.
You pass out over $5 billion of research dollars Every year.
And if you look at the emails to Dr. Fauci that we've seen, people that in January were saying there's a 70-30 chance this virus came from a laboratory.
And a week later, they changed their mind and say, oh, this had to come from nature.
And then they get $15, $20 million of funding over the next year or two.
So Dr. Fauci was able to convince these people that, oh, it had to be zoonotic in origin.
And Dr. Fauci knows that I know.
He can't blow the smoke and mirrors in my ear.
I understand this viral gain of function.
He's been the head cheerleader, the cash taladist now since about 2010.
Recall, 2014 is when President Obama put a moratorium on viral gain of function.
steve bannon
Well, that's the reason he can't squirm out of you and Rand Paul, because you're a doctor and Rand Paul's a doctor.
And you could tell that you guys come at it different than a lawyer or different.
I mean, these are very detailed questions just for our audience, because we talked about this back in, you know, we're coming up on the third year of this pandemic, the second anniversary, I think, of our show already.
We started back in 2020, in January 2020.
Gain of function, we talked about right off the bat.
Why is this weaponization?
In your mind so dangerous and why do we have to get to the bottom of what happened in Wuhan lab because now you see this Olympics probably not even going to go on because in China it's exploding all over again.
Why in your professional opinion is gain of function so dangerous, sir?
unidentified
It's more dangerous than a nuclear warhead, right?
It's responsible for the death of 800,000 Americans.
I think when it's all said and done, it's going to be 10 or 20 million people worldwide.
So just think about where this virus came from.
We started doing research in the University of North Carolina lab with Dr. Xi in 2015 and 2016.
Even though there's a moratorium, We used NIH dollars to figure out how to take the SARS virus and put a protein spike on it that would stick to the human lung cell like glue.
But that wasn't enough.
In 2017 and 2018, Dr. Fauci funded EcoHealth to fund the Wuhan Laboratory with Dr. Xi to put this furon cleavage site in that spike protein so this virus could dump its guts into the human lung cells.
So obviously it is a weapon, and this is the tip of the iceberg.
So I think what's going to be next, and how do we prepare for it?
Again, more dangerous than nuclear warheads.
This is like doing nuclear research with Iran.
This would be like having our military doing nuclear research with Iran.
And hoping they don't use it on us.
That's what Fauci was doing through EcoHealth.
steve bannon
I just want to remind the audience, this is Dr. Barak also, he's talking about the University of North Carolina, someone we've talked about a lot on the show.
Just one thing before I pivot to his finances, because we've only got like five minutes here.
The good folks in Kansas, the hard-working heartland of this country, when they become really aware, because I think it's only now they're starting to become aware, when they become aware that their government And way Fauci got around these restrictions on gain of function, that their government funded these dangerous things in universities around the country, but then in partnership with the PLA's bioweapons lab in Wuhan.
What is going to be the response of not just Republicans, but Independents and Democrats when people fully understand the story as you think it's going to come and fully play out, Dr. Roger Marshall?
unidentified
Well, Steve, they're already mad as hell, right?
They're mad as hell about inflation, the vaccine mandates, and then when they come to find out why you didn't get to tell your parents goodbye when they passed away in the nursing home, when they find out why your children missed their senior year of high school, why your kids missed a year or two of school as well, when they find all this out, it's just gonna, their head's gonna explode, right?
But they're already mad.
Dr. Fauci has lost his reputation.
Once you lose your reputation, you never get it back.
That's why there's so much resistance to the vaccine because nobody trusts Dr. Fauci.
Less than, I guess, like 59% of Americans don't trust him.
So regardless, whether you're a Republican or an Independent or Democrat, I think people are as mad as hell.
steve bannon
Why were you so focused on his financial disclosures?
Every, every, you and every other, I had to do it, every other government employee has to do fully, you're fully put up your financials.
Why did, why, why did he, why were you so interested in that given that you know to gain a function you're going in that path?
Why did you also focus on his financial disclosures?
unidentified
This is a question I've been asked hundreds of times by Kansans.
Based on Dr. Fauci's vaccine-only policy, does he have a financial conflict of interest?
Why doesn't he recognize natural immunity?
Why doesn't he recognize repurposing medicines like ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine?
Why does it have to be a vaccine, vaccine, and only the vaccine?
Why was there not a better investment and other alternatives to this?
So there was obviously, his actions seemed to not line up with anything except a financial conflict of interest, and that's what we proved.
Making $2 million a year almost, while everyone else is shut down.
A barber and a bartender can't have a job, but he's making Well, it's $2 million a year, and it's literally visibly shaking when we asked him these questions.
There's probably more to come.
Significant investment in China, we found out, as well, and we need to dive into that a little bit more.
steve bannon
Now you've put forward legislation.
We only got about a minute, two minutes here.
Walk us through, is this legislation going to go forward now that you've got the unredacted version?
And the only reason we have unredacted version is Senator Marshall's being relentless on this and Fauci was scared.
He was definitely nervous when Senator Marshall was coming at him on these questions.
We now just have the unredacted version because Senator Marshall was the forcing function to get it.
Are you going to go forward with this legislation and make sure it's all disclosed on a regular basis going forward?
unidentified
I think when the politics die down, we'll be able to do something.
Basically, what our legislation would say is if you're a federal government employee and you're making as much as a congressman does, then you should adhere to the same transparency as we do.
Your finances should be online, readily available, easily available, not having to hire a lawyer to get a Freedom of Information Act.
And just like I have to, every month I have to disclose what I purchased or what my dependent children purchased or my spouse.
So we think that people like Dr. Fauci, again, a person making $434,000 a year, a person controlling billions of dollars in research who has information before I ever do, that he's as accountable as your Congress members, as your senators are.
It's that simple.
steve bannon
Senator Marshall, this show is obviously, we're in Mandarin, we're in Japanese, it's got a massive global audience, and I can tell you, your appearance here was looked at not just of your fellow citizens and the huge, deplorable audience, but throughout the world.
So how can people follow you?
How do they get to know you better, but particularly how can they follow you on social media as you pursue this line of inquiry with Tony Fauci and NIH?
unidentified
Yeah, well, thanks, Steve.
Just go to marshall.senate.gov, marshall.senate.gov, and you can see all of Dr. Fauci's financials.
And of course, we're on Twitter and Instagram, those types of things as well.
But start on our website and take a peek at yourself for Dr. Fauci's financial information.
We'll have a few more bombshells into this week or next week regarding Dr. Fauci's cover-up of the origins of COVID.
steve bannon
Wow.
Senator, Dr. Roger Marshall, Republican of Kansas, thank you very much.
Honored to have you here in the War Room.
unidentified
Thanks, Steve.
Thanks for what you do.
steve bannon
Thank you, brother.
This is when you see a reasonable man like Dr. Marshall going after and asking straightforward questions because his constituents in the great state of Kansas, some of those decent people on this earth, just want answers.
Straightforward answers.
And you see the resistance he's up against.
That's all you need to know, right?
That's all you need to know.
Continue to watch Senator Roger Marshall as he pursues his inquiry into gain-of-function and Tony Fauci, NIH, and all of it, the PLA Lab, Wuhan, the CCP.
We'll be back in a moment to talk about his finances with open books.
Fauci's finances next.

I want to bring in Adam Andrzejewski from Open Books.
And the reason that you need organizations like Open Books, he's kind of like Tom Fitton.
Tom does it a little differently on 40 Requests, on other issues.
Adam focuses on the money.
Adam, we just had Senator Marshall on here that had to go through this, you know, this kind of banging on Fauci to get his financials.
Walk me through what you guys know at Open Books about Tony Fauci.
unidentified
Well, God bless the Honorable Senator from Kansas, Roger Marshall.
I mean, he accomplished what we couldn't do over the course of 12 months and a federal lawsuit.
Let me describe the timeline here, Steve.
Our auditors at OpenTheBooks.com Back in last January, we discovered, and broke the news in my column at Forbes, that Dr. Fauci was the number one most highly compensated federal employee.
And many people had questions.
How can the director of a sub-agency of a sub-agency of Health and Human Services out-earn everybody, including four-star generals in the United States military, the president, and 4.3 million of his colleagues at the federal level?
So we filed these Freedom of Information Act requests.
We wanted to know his job contract, if he has a hush agreement.
Steve, he did 400 media interviews over the first 18 months of the pandemic, so does he have a non-disclosure agreement with his agency?
What is he not telling us?
We wanted to know his job description.
We wanted to see that.
For instance, his public affairs and his job description.
What else is in there?
Does he have a military DOD security clearance, and at what level?
We wanted to know his financial and conflict disclosures, and we wanted to know if he was receiving any royalties.
And so we had to sue.
Using Judicial Watch, Tom Fitton, we partnered on a federal lawsuit to start enforcing transparency law in October.
Here's what the agency admitted to.
That they had 1,200 pages.
1,200 pages, Steve, subject to that request.
They had dribbled out 51 pages.
Just one of those pages was a memo from 2004 showing why he's the most highly compensated federal employee.
Because he received a permanent pay adjustment for his biodefense work.
Steve, he was paid to stop the next pandemic and he failed.
steve bannon
This is unbelievable.
Tell us where it currently stands right now.
We only got a couple of minutes left.
Where do you stand on getting more of this information and putting more of this information out there?
unidentified
So, on February 1st, just in a couple of weeks here, they're supposed to start producing documents.
However, they negotiated 300 pages a month.
So it's going to take about four months to get those disclosures, some of which the good senator received within 24 hours.
And this is what rankles us.
We've tried for a year to get these things, and the senator was able to get them basically in 24 hours on a demand letter.
And we're proud to say that he did footnote our fight in that demand letter.
But he got it, and we couldn't, and now they're going to dribble out pages over the course of the next four months.
Here's what they're also going to dribble out at 300 pages a month.
There's 3,000 pages of line-by-line royalty disclosures to scientists current and retired that are receiving royalties from, say, pharmaceutical companies.
It's completely legal, but they're supposed to have the database online.
They don't, and they forced us to sue for it.
steve bannon
Why are they trying to keep all this information, by law, supposed to be out there?
Why are they going out of their way to obfuscate this and make it difficult even for a group like yours that specialize in this to get that information?
Why are they doing this?
unidentified
Well, they're acting like they have a lot to hide.
Every single line of payments to a scientist at the National Institutes of Health is a potential conflict of interest.
And since You know, vaccines and a pandemic is the number one public policy issue in the United States.
We need to be able to see every line of that database and tie it out.
They're slow walking it.
They forced us to sue on it, and it's wrong.
Look, this is why Senator Marshall's transparency work over the course of the last week was so important.
He put a white hot spotlight on what was going on over at NIH, and we really appreciate that kind of courageous Courageous action in the well of the United States Senate.
steve bannon
Listen, this is why Collins, when we did the transition to Trump's first term, this is why they told us Collins was, you know, with Peter Thiel's group looking to deconstruct the administrative state, Collins was untouchable.
They said he was, they told us he's the most powerful guy in the entire administration, in the U.S.
government.
He is the most powerful and he can't move him because he spread this research money to every university in every state.
It's your work, Adam, quite frankly.
Collins is a smart guy.
Your work, and Senator Marshall's work later, this is why Collins retired.
He understood that Open Books and Tom Fitton and others, Adam, are going to come and find out all the financial shenanigans on top of the gain of function of what they've been doing over there.
Adam, how do people get to you on social media?
How do they get to your site?
We've got 30 seconds.
unidentified
Just come to our website, OpenTheBooks.com.
You can find us, you know, on Facebook.
We're on Getter.
And, you know, certainly, The genius and intelligence of the American people.
We need to all look at the line-by-line transactions which are now online with Dr. Fauci's disclosures.
People are going to see different things and collectively that oversight is what's important.
steve bannon
Unbelievable job.
Keep grinding.
This is a group you've got to get to know better.
I want to put up everything across all of our chat rooms right now.
All of his information.
How you file him 24 hours a day and how you get there.
They're going to peel Fauci back layer by layer.
It's happening.
Okay?
This is the hard work of oversight.
This is what the Democrats in the administrative state have to look forward to after November.
Every second of every day.
Going to Columbia next.
