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

War Room. | |
| Pandemic. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Okay, it's Tuesday, 12 April, Year of Our Lord 2022. | ||
| It is Holy Week, also Passover. | ||
| We're going to have a lot of specials on this week, a lot of things we're going to do about celebrating, commemorating these two, the holiest week of the year in the Judeo-Christian calendar. | ||
| We're going to go to the Vatican in just a moment with our own Ben Harnwell, our international Editor-in-chief of Everything International. | ||
| But first, by the way, horrible news coming in New York City. | ||
| As soon as we have more details, the anarchy and chaos in New York just continues to spread. | ||
| Horrible, looks like mass shooting in the subway today, this morning. | ||
| We'll find out as we get more accurate details, we'll come forward. | ||
| But just another, the greatest city in the world has now just collapsed into anarchy and chaos. | ||
| And it is the direct fault of the officials in charge. | ||
| It just is. | ||
| The mayor, the DA, the city council, the people in charge are responsible for what's going on there. | ||
| It is to send it to anarchy and chaos and it's the greatest city in the world. | ||
| I love New York City and it's just, it's... Today I would not let Captain Bannon go live in New York. | ||
| I wouldn't even allow it because it's just too dangerous. | ||
| It's anarchy and chaos. | ||
| I'm going to try and get Bernie Kerrick and the mayor on for tonight's show and tomorrow to walk us through this. | ||
| I want to go to Claudia Tenney now, a congressman from New York State. | ||
| In fact, Congressman Tenney, I think that your previous guest actually is in your new district. | ||
| Since New York City and New York State got rolled, the Republicans got rolled there, I think you've only got three districts left. | ||
| Thank God Florida took a hard stand. | ||
| But you were part of RIG 2020, and it's huge news. | ||
| Dave Bossie is going to join us. | ||
| He's going to be out in Memphis today, but he's going to join us at 5 o'clock. | ||
| And big news, Zuckerberg has announced he will be putting money into this technology group that he put $400 million in, essentially to help assist steal the election. | ||
| You've been part of this process, and you know Dave Bossie very well. | ||
| Walk us through this. | ||
| This is a big victory for you guys, correct? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes, absolutely. | |
| Let's hope that he actually doesn't give the money through some other laundered operation, some not-for-profit. | ||
| And this is, again, what people don't understand is they did this so cleverly, they did it indirectly. | ||
| Zuckerbox were put through a 501c3 that, by the way, didn't even disclose their 990. | ||
| That's the form you've got to show where your money was spent and what it was for. | ||
| They didn't disclose that until December of 2021. | ||
| So there was no way to even find out where all this money was spent. | ||
| So a lot of people say, well, geez, you know, they're just trying to help. | ||
| But as you all know, and as we all found out, 99% of this money went to electioneering, vote harvesting, | ||
| Not to PPE which was slated to do and 92% Particularly high concentrations in the swing states 42 million in Georgia 30-something in Texas not a swing state But they were trying to move seats and move Texas away from being a red state so there was huge amounts of money put in the laundered through this 501c3 and that's how they were able to prime the pump and | ||
| Get people out to vote, vote harvest, vote traffic in all these key zones just to edge Joe Biden over the line enough with only a 42,000, roughly 42,000 vote margin in the entire nation in these key swing states, which is what actually decided the election. | ||
| And that's what we're trying to prevent with my Stop Zuckerberg Act. | ||
| Kudos to Governor Ron DeSantis, who was one of the first to come out and ban this type of laundering scheme through the IRS as a governor, and we've had 12 states that have actually done this. | ||
| We've also had legislatures, five legislatures have done it as well, and the five Democrat governors have actually vetoed this attempt to stop this election interference. | ||
| But it's really, it's a real big thing. | ||
| I don't trust Zuckerberg. | ||
| I think somebody else, some other big tech oligarch, is going to try to get in there Because the Democrats know. | ||
| This is the difference between the diabolical Democrats and the Republicans. | ||
| They know the red way is coming. | ||
| They know they can't win on policy. | ||
| They are in the process of destroying whatever they can. | ||
| In this election process, everywhere, every state, every corner, whether it's redistricting, to make sure that red wave doesn't hit the shores. | ||
| And the Republicans, I worry, are not aggressive enough on this issue right now, which is why I started the Election Integrity Caucus and why every single member of Congress, especially every Republican, should be a member of this caucus. | ||
| Here's what I don't get, how can you not, how can, given everything that's gone on, how can they be, the question is how were they asleep beforehand when Mark Elias and these gained the system, but you're absolutely correct. | ||
| The Democrats, because now our coalition has, is going to have a big component of working class and middle class African Americans and Hispanics in South Texas, the Rio Grande Valley, the Asian, it's all coming together. | ||
| Truth, I keep saying 67% to 75% of the American people agree with our fundamental basic policies, right? | ||
| The Democrats have to do something structurally. | ||
| They have to use lawfare. | ||
| They've got to work the margins and work the refs. | ||
| But I'm stunned when you say... | ||
| That you think even some of your colleagues or the Republican Party is not as aggressive on this, because if we're not aggressive on this, also this about turnout, our people will turn out like in Virginia. | ||
| If they know that there's going to be a free and fair election and only legal votes count votes of American citizens, we're going to have overwhelming turnout. | ||
| If there's any inkling that they'll be cheated again, like in 2020. | ||
| I think that incremental 5%, which is everything, is just going to sit there and go, no, the elections don't mean anything. | ||
| Claudia Tenney, your thoughts? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, this is exactly what the Democrats want. | |
| And they want weak Republicans to say, and this is how they're effectively doing it. | ||
| They're saying, look, We want one citizen, one vote. | ||
| I used to say one person, one vote based on the old Supreme Court case, but it's really one citizen, one vote because the Democrats have completely undermined our system of government where citizens are part of our self-governing constitutional republic. | ||
| It should not be, you know, non-citizens shouldn't be voting as they've allowed to happen in New York City. | ||
| But what the Democrats have successfully done is Stamp down the First Amendment rights and back people into a corner. | ||
| So anyone that talks about election integrity is immediately labeled an insurrectionist or a seditionist. | ||
| And Republicans are afraid to stand out and fight against this very issue. | ||
| And even though they're like, I've heard from, you know, people say, oh, well, geez, you know, some of these Republicans are like, well, that's not a big issue, election integrity. | ||
| I'm like, it is the issue. | ||
| If we don't have election integrity, we're not going to take back the House. | ||
| We're not going to win. | ||
| And we just had on our Election Integrity Congress a great meeting last week. | ||
| We had Scott Rasmussen, the pollster. | ||
| We had Hogan Gidley from America First. | ||
| We had Ken Blackwell, who was the Secretary of State of Ohio during all that controversy of the old elections in the past, all working diligently on election integrity. | ||
| Scott Rasmussen had some interesting information. | ||
| 84% of people polled across all demographics, all party lines, 84% now, it used to be 80, support a photo ID for elections. | ||
| That includes minorities, everyone, everyone cares to make sure they have not only a free vote, a fair vote, and their vote counts just once, but also the privacy of your vote is so critical. | ||
| That's how these dictators get elected in other countries. | ||
| I lived in a communist country. | ||
| I lived in the former Yugoslavia. | ||
| Let me tell you something. | ||
| The government knows how you vote. | ||
| That's why we have laws in place, even in New York and other places, to protect your identity, to protect against this vote trafficking that Mark Elias promotes. | ||
| And that's why it's so important. | ||
| A lot of the Democrats try to conflate that by saying, oh, well, the Republicans want to suppress votes. | ||
| Actually, what Scott Rasmussen showed is the more people vote, the more likely the Republicans are actually going to win. | ||
| So we don't want to suppress the vote. | ||
| We want every legal citizen to vote. | ||
| Every legal citizen should be voting in every election if we're going to be a self-governing This is a fallacy. | ||
| We're going to take a huge part of the African-American vote. | ||
| We're going to take 50% north of the Hispanic vote. | ||
| We're going to start taking overwhelming majorities in the Asian vote, particularly the Chinese-Americans who want to take down the CCP. | ||
| This is inclusive nationalism, participatory populism. | ||
| We're on a roll. | ||
| We want more vote, but we want citizens to vote. | ||
| Before I let you go, Congressman Tenney, I've got to ask you about New York State, because I lived in New York City on and off for many, many years. | ||
| It is it is heart rendering to see the greatest city in the world in collapse into anarchy and chaos. | ||
| And not just that New York state. | ||
| I mean, we just had the health care owner that had to take the governor to court, both for the schools and keep his business open. | ||
| I mean, this state and now they played smash mouth. | ||
| So you only have a couple of Republican congressmen. | ||
| This state from Albany to New York City is an, I think, absolute and total collapse, ma'am. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I agree. | |
| Well, this is tough. | ||
| I've been in New York my whole life and it's I've watched this decline. | ||
| It was in decline when I started. | ||
| But one of the problems we have is the Republicans have always tried to play the game of, you know, let's just compromise out of the gate. | ||
| You know, like I am all for compromise in the end. | ||
| But you have to come out. | ||
| Advocating strongly and aggressively. | ||
| And in the end, you know, you might end up with two steps forward, one step back. | ||
| But the Republicans always come out hat in hand, you know, compromising the Democrats. | ||
| And where are we now? | ||
| We have communists running. | ||
| The biggest contingency, the biggest caucus in the New York State legislature is the Democratic Socialists of America. | ||
| That's who's running the show now. | ||
| And you have these, what I would call progressive Democrats, Cowtowing to these people saying, oh God, you know, we got a communist running against me, so I've got to promote communism. | ||
| And that's what's actually winning the day. | ||
| And that's why you see this chaos in New York City. | ||
| You see the authoritarianism coming out of our governor, who is not elected, who appointed this corrupt lieutenant governor, not because he was qualified to lead New York in tough times. | ||
| She picked him because he was from New York City, because she's trying to ace out and block out this Jumaane Williams, who's a communist. | ||
| Who's going to challenge her in a primary? | ||
| So it's all political gamesmanship, never thinking about the people in upstate New York or around the rest of the state. | ||
| You know, we were once the Empire State because we had all the industry and we had the corporations here and we had people that wanted to be in New York. | ||
| Everyone is left in droves and headed to Florida, where you have a tax-free situation for individuals, you have freedom, and we've become the least free state, the highest out migration, and it's this authoritarianism and a lot of the terrible policies that I saw when I was a member of the New York State Assembly, which is worse now than when I was there, that have visited upon Nancy Pelosi. | ||
| They've given her a lot of bad ideas. | ||
| A lot of the real bad changes in the laws in Washington are because of so many of these legislators who have left New York State and gone to the Capitol in Washington and brought these terrible rules with them. | ||
| I mean, people don't even realize that there has been no major bill signed or into law by a Republican, authored by a Republican. | ||
| Since 1974, when the wave came in and Nixon resigned. | ||
| I mean, we have lost everything because the Republicans don't stand up and fight. | ||
| And I think, really interesting to tie this up, that guest you just had, Robbie De Niro, it starts with our parents in the school districts to change our culture, to understand that we have to teach citizens You know, children how to be citizens if you're going to be self-governing. | ||
| And this is a real concern that I have is that these parents are finally standing up and realizing that a lot of the power in the school districts is actually in the state. | ||
| The most powerful governor, I would argue, in the entire country is the New York governor under our Constitution. | ||
| And it's so important that we replace this governor and put somebody in because during the budget process, which just ended a disastrous again, we can actually affect change, even though we don't have the House and Senate. | ||
| We can actually affect change to the governor, but it starts with these school districts. | ||
| They don't realize how powerless in many cases. | ||
| There's their school districts are to the huge power. | ||
| in the state governor's house and taking money away from them. | ||
| And not only do they use power, they abuse it, just like Nancy Pelosi does. | ||
| Cuomo abuses power and now you see Governor Hochul. | ||
| I mean, I call her Cuomo without the groping, only she might even be worse. | ||
| We don't know if she's been groping yet, but we'll see. | ||
| How do people follow you on social media and how do they find out more about you? | ||

| We work with everyone. | ||
| I, you know, I was in the movie Rigged, which we were excited to be part of. | ||
| We've been fighting this and we have to let Republicans know we've got to vote. | ||
| Please make sure you get out and vote. | ||
| We are trying to inform not just our colleagues. | ||
| We have people across the country, whether they're secretaries of state, people that are working at boards of elections. | ||
| We have regular events. | ||
| We try to highlight and identify things to watch, things the Democrats are up to, because they're up to it. | ||
| We know that there's some sneaky rules going on. | ||
| Even Biden is trying to sneak rules in on an executive order to try to allow a Zuckerberg-type situation. | ||
| So pay attention. | ||
| Make sure you vote. | ||
| Get your neighbor to vote if they're not voting. | ||
| Congressman Tenney, thank you for joining us in the War Room. | ||

| Okay, Ben Harnwell, I'm going to hold Ben Harnwell for a second. | ||
| He's at the Vatican, but I want to take some time with that. | ||
| And I've got to get Julie Kelly in here because she was working on, yesterday when we had her on the show, an incredible article that's up in American Greatness. | ||
| I want to make sure Captain Ben and the entire social media team puts that out in all the different forums and chat rooms right now so people can see it. | ||
| Julie Kelly, walk us through this article about who knew what, when, and who should be held accountable for this Michigan, because Michigan is so central to the issues we have, and we just had Robbie De Niro here on the show, a guy that runs a A thing called Athletes Unleashed. | ||
| It's a workout facility, a fitness facility. | ||
| They try to shut him down. | ||
| He's fighting now at the school board level. | ||
| You got Jenny Beth Martin with all the Tea Party Patriots. | ||
| At every level, whether it's parents at school boards, it's people becoming election officials, it's the precinct strategy, they're all domestic terrorists. | ||
| The number one, DHS continues to say it's the number one problem in our world, the number one problem in the world facing the United States of America. | ||
| I want everybody to embrace this. | ||
| Is you in this audience that you're engaged at a level and that you're a domestic terrorist. | ||
| They try to run this scam and now the Garland they were trying to run away from it. | ||
| That's why this Michigan situation where they were totally exposed on what they tried to do in October 2020 at the same moment that they're taking hunters. | ||
| Laptop from Hell, which they've had for almost a year and lying about it and suppressing it. | ||
| They're at a whole cloth making up a story. | ||
| Julie Kelly, who knew what, when and who is responsible in the government for this? | ||
| Well, Steve, that's what we need to find out, right? | ||
| So there were FBI agents who testified under oath that this wasn't a few rogue agents out of the Detroit FBI field office or Kalamazoo or wherever. | ||
| That this operation required approval at the highest level, including at FBI headquarters and including at Maine Justice. | ||
| So who was in charge then? | ||
| William Barr was, of course, the Attorney General. | ||
| John Demers was head of National Security Division for the Department of Justice, an organization that is part of this Joint Terrorism Task Force. | ||
| And of course, Christopher Wray was head of the FBI. | ||
| There's no way, Steve, that they could be running informants and undercover agents at numerous field offices in the eastern half of the country, all the way from Baltimore down to Tennessee, up to Michigan and Wisconsin. | ||
| No way would this six or seven month operation that included, as you talked about yesterday, drones, airplanes, surveillance equipment. | ||
| No way would this happen without the, at least, knowledge of Christopher Wray and Bill Barr. | ||
| But also their authorization and approval. | ||
| So this is what we have to know. | ||
| What did Bill Barr know? | ||
| What did John Demers know? | ||
| What did Christopher Wray know? | ||
| What did Steven D'Antuono, the head of the Detroit FBI field office, who was suddenly promoted in the middle of 2020 to take over the most powerful FBI field office in the country, which is in Washington, D.C., several weeks before January 6th. | ||
| Also, what did Gretchen Whitmer know? | ||
| She was in on it. | ||
| We know this because the FBI testified that her vacation cottage, the scene of the crime, was under surveillance by pole camera and laser devices that were collecting information. | ||
| So this is not just, this can't just be a one-off. | ||
| It can't be forgotten. | ||
| We need to know who knew what, who approved what, because this undoubtedly influenced the 2020 election. But also, hang on, also it's the logistics is, it's the whole East Coast United States, it's multiple field offices, it's all type of technology, you got drones, airplanes, this thing is a massive operation, ladies and gentlemen, it's a massive operation. But also they had to go get, didn't have to get warrants because they had to start looking at phone records or anything like that. | ||
| My point is, they're in the courts at the same time they're running this logistics operation. | ||
| This was, had to be approved at the highest level, did it not ma'am? | ||
| It absolutely did. | ||
| You have FBI agents who have testified under oath that it did. | ||
| So we need to find that out. | ||
| Look, and what you were saying earlier, Christopher Wray issued a report in 2019 Saying that white supremacist domestic terrorists pose the greatest threat to the homeland. | ||
| He specifically said these are extremists who are plotting to kidnap and assassinate elected officials. | ||
| Three years later, the only people that we have proof of who wanted to kidnap and assassinate political leaders are people in the FBI. | ||
| So this is not just a political operation. | ||
| It's a narrative operation to do exactly what you just said. | ||
| Go after parents at school board meetings. | ||
| Surveil everyone. | ||
| Surveil social media posts. | ||
| We know now that Facebook was in on this operation, too. | ||
| We have testimonies. | ||
| Someone flagged me the other day. | ||
| Mark Zuckerberg bragged in October of 2020 how he helped, Facebook helped thwart this imaginary kidnapping plan. | ||
| Well, that's not it. | ||
| What Facebook was doing was helping the government create these groups by prompting algorithms of somebody put in Stop the Steal, or they put in Second Amendment rights, or they put in lockdown rallies. | ||
| It instantly prompted, at least in this case, the main informant to look at this Wolverine Watchmen militia group that was only a Facebook page. | ||
| So that is how all of these interests, same interests that stole the 2020 election, are also helping create these fake domestic terrorists and entrap innocent men in the process. | ||
| These are all marginal folks, right? | ||
| I mean, they're kind of sad sacks. | ||
| And this is what they did. | ||
| The FBI and the Justice Department organized this. | ||
| Let me go back in time about that. | ||
| Remember, they're trying to use this show trial and doing this to intimidate you and to make you stay home and to make you cower. | ||
| It's not just the school boards, which they came out and they said they had the memos internally. | ||
| The Secretary of Education sent it out and said, hey, we need to get these these domestic, these parents come to school boards are domestic terrorists. | ||
| We need FBI. | ||
| And they were going to do it in the just part until they were outed by a whistleblower. | ||
| Also, remember, at the very beginning, at the very beginning of the forensic audit in Arizona on May 5th, 2021, if memory serves me correctly, they sent a letter, right? | ||
| One of the impeachment witnesses that's now an assistant attorney general, she sent a letter. | ||
| Out to Arizona to inform them that anybody that was involved in a canvas, and Peter Navarro said it's the canvas not the count, anybody involved in a canvas could be open for criminal charges. | ||
| They're trying to use lawfare to scare you and we're not going to be scared. | ||
| You should be scared. | ||
| Save your receipts. | ||
| Read Julie Kelly's piece today. | ||
| We take power in November. | ||
| This is another whole avenue, this is away from the impeachment of Biden. | ||
| This is a whole other avenue to go after Garland, and we're going after Garland, and we're going after Christopher Wray. | ||
| And guess what? | ||
| We're going to go after Bill Barr. | ||
| Bill Barr is up to his neck in this thing. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| I didn't see big chapters in his book. | ||
| I didn't see big chapters in Walter Mitty. | ||
| This guy's such a clown. | ||
| He's Walter Mitty. | ||
| Like, he's the hero. | ||
| He's the superhero that walks in. | ||
| This guy is a dangerous Bush clown. | ||
| And they've got to save, they should preserve their documents. | ||
| Because Christopher Wray and Barr, this goes all the way up. | ||
| The fish rots from the head on this. | ||
| Remember, this just wasn't some sort of guy talking about kidnapping. | ||
| There was going to be a kidnapping, an assassination, something to do with a weapon of mass destruction. | ||
| They were going to storm the Capitol and take over the Capitol. | ||
| This was basically to seize Michigan, right? | ||
| And they dropped it. | ||
| And for 72 hours, Rachel Maddow, who now has semi-retired, she's only once a week, right? | ||
| You think that's not a coincidence? | ||
| She doesn't want any part of this. | ||
| Right? | ||
| She wants to go make the new West Wing or whatever. | ||
| They don't want any part of this route. | ||
| Yet 72 straight hours, Gretchen Whitmer, who was on the shortlist, she's the cover bid for Kamala Harris, get the big crocodile tears coming down. | ||
| Oh, they were going to assassinate me. | ||
| It's all beyond performative. | ||
| This was all very well. | ||
| Here's the thing that you point out so well with your Pulitzer Prize quality reporting, Julie Kelly, that this was highly thought through with huge amounts of resources, but huge amounts of coordination, Julie Kelly. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| And Steve, don't forget, there was another plot that was thwarted, allegedly thwarted, that these same FBI handlers and informant were trying to entrap another man in Virginia to pretend that he was going to kidnap and assassinate Ralph Northam. | ||
| So that plan sort of went sideways. | ||
| But these were two of the plots, two of the schemes that this FBI was putting together. | ||
| Of course, Donald Trump's one of his biggest political foes in 2020, Gretchen Whitmer, Another man, Ralph Northam. | ||
| So this was what they were concocting to support this narrative, to interfere in the election. | ||
| But this has real damaging consequences. | ||
| To your point, it's destroyed the lives of innocent men. | ||
| We still have two men who are in prison, have been there for more than a year and a half, while this Justice Department considers retrying them on a case that they just completely face-planted on. | ||
| It's a humiliation. | ||
| It is an embarrassment. | ||
| And they want to keep this going Try to somehow convict these two men, even though the jury in the Whitmer case rejected every single argument that they made, not a single conviction. | ||
| But they want to try to continue to prosecute these men, even though the jury didn't have all the evidence. | ||
| The judge, who did a great job, nonetheless favored the government numerous times and did not let them see hundreds of text communications between their handlers and their informants. | ||
| That showed how deeply the FBI orchestrated every single move, not only of this plot, but tried to organize the plot against Ralph Northam. | ||
| The jury never saw the text between Jason Chambers, one of the FBI's lead handlers, and Dan Chappell, the main informant, that said, mission today specifically to kill the governor. | ||
| That wasn't about Whitmer. | ||
| That was about Ralph Northam. | ||
| We could have had two dueling kidnapping assassination plots Not really sure. | ||
| They probably couldn't manage it because they're not the brightest people in the world, everyone who orchestrated this. | ||
| But the jury didn't even see that! | ||
| Unbelievable. | ||
| OK, can you hang on for one second? | ||
| We'll take a short break. | ||
| We are going to go to the Vatican, but I got to ask you about what this means about 6 January. | ||
| We don't know anything about 6 January. | ||
| What Dick Cheney and Drag and Benny Thompson, those guys, that's all marginalia. | ||
| We want to get to the bottom of what the FBI and DOJ and DHS and others, the Fed's erection, OK, you saw in Michigan. | ||
| We now need to find out about Washington, D.C. | ||
| All next in The War Room. | ||

War Room Pandemic with Stephen K. Bannon. | |

| War Room Pandemic. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Okay, God Bless the USA Bible. | ||
| Go to GodBlessTheUSABible.com. | ||
| It's all one word. | ||
| God Bless the USA Bible. | ||
| This is Lee Greenwood's Bible. | ||
| The King James Version of the Old and New Testament. | ||
| Of course, all of our divinely inspired, providential founding documents. | ||
| All in one binding that you can use for the entire family. | ||
| It will become a family heirloom, but use it actively Every day, particularly in these trying times that are only going to get more trying. | ||
| Write that one down. | ||
| We ain't seen nothing yet. | ||
| You watch what's going to happen because of this, uh, because of the globalist and this incompetent, uh, illegitimate regime, what they're doing to our country. | ||
| We're fighting back and victory begets victory. | ||
| We're winning and we're going to have a massive win, but we got to put our shoulders to the wheel. | ||
| And then we got to make tough calls, hard decisions after we take power. | ||
| Julie Kelly. | ||
| Michigan's, Michigan, but it's inextricably linked to 6 January, and this is what's so upsetting. | ||
| Right now we haven't seen anything about the government's involvement, the FBI involvement, DHS involvement. | ||
| New York Times has said, hey, there were government agents or informants in these passing references where they're trying to, obviously, they're trying to run that up the flagpole, right? | ||
| We call it Ben Smithing. | ||
| Oh yeah, the New York Times talked about it a long time ago. | ||
| Nothing to see there. | ||
| What is the FBI and the DOJ and DHS and other federal agencies' involvement in 6 January, as far as you can tell right now? | ||
| Well, we're talking about the same people, Bill Barr, John Demers, Christopher Wray, Stephen DiAntonio, who are running the Whitmer Ralph Northam operations, but we're supposed to believe they had nothing to do with January 6th, completely separate, even though we know they were running informants. | ||
| They were actually creating imaginary militia groups But then they were infiltrating the U.N. | ||
| informants, creating encrypted group chats, directly giving passwords to the FBI so they could surveil what was happening in these encrypted group chats. | ||
| Same MO as January 6th. | ||
| It involved storming the Capitol, the Lansing Capitol, in the spring of 2020, where suddenly the Michigan State Police, who were guarding the Capitol, stood by and let protesters into the building, including men who had organized to wear militia Uniforms, to carry guns, to scream for Gretchen Whitmer, to hang Gretchen Whitmer. | ||
| This was all a dress rehearsal for January 6th. | ||
| We have the same people in charge who would have been in charge on January 6th. | ||
| Steve, you mean to tell me the one person that Kash Patel, who was the Chief of Staff to the Acting Secretary of Defense, the only person they couldn't reach on January 5th and 6th was Christopher Wray? | ||
| We're supposed to believe that Acting Attorney General Jeffrey Rosen, who stepped in after Bill Barr left, that just by coincidence, he had hundreds of special FBI agents and a hostage rescue team stationed at Quantico the weekend before January 6th. | ||
| What were they doing there? | ||
| Because they were afraid of some threat, that's what we're told later. | ||
| What's funny, he never said that under testimony. | ||
| What were these special elite forces doing at Quantico? | ||
| Were they practicing what was going to happen on January 6th? | ||
| Jeffrey Rosen said, oh, well, after I saw what was happening on TV, I deployed all these forces to the Capitol. | ||
| Well, that's not what Newsweek, who reported this bombshell, said. | ||
| They said these forces were deployed, these agents were deployed to Capitol grounds early on January 6th. | ||
| Well, what were they doing, Steve? | ||
| I've seen all sorts of videos and photographs from January 6th. | ||
| I don't see people walking around in big FBI jackets. | ||
| I don't see any FBI agents trying to stop the crowd. | ||
| We still can't even get Jill Sanborn, the head of counterterrorism for the FBI, who was asked under oath if FBI agents or informants incited or were involved in any violence on January 6th. | ||
| She couldn't answer the question. | ||
| And we still have no clarification four months later after her testimony. | ||
| And furthermore, Steve, I'll say this in conclusion. | ||
| The FBI still has not uploaded hundreds of thousands of pages of FBI records, pages related to January 6th. | ||
| Still have not uploaded it to the shareable platform so defense attorneys who are defending January 6th clients can have access to these records. | ||
| People are already pleading guilty. | ||
| They're already going on trial. | ||
| But yet the FBI still doesn't have all their records, all of their documents in place, so defendants can see exactly what's going on. | ||
| All of this stinks. | ||
| Stinks to high heaven. | ||
| And this is a big thing of what we have to find out. | ||
| The relationship between Whitmer and January 6th. | ||
| The people who downplay it or ignore it are fooling themselves. | ||
| And we have to keep exposing it. | ||
| Julie Kelly, amazing work. | ||
| You're at American Greatness. | ||
| Your articles go up other places, too. | ||
| How do people get to you? | ||
| How do they get to all your amazing reporting on this? | ||
| And how do they get to your book? | ||
| Thanks, Steve. | ||
| So my book on January 6th that gives all the background about How we got to this point, really, it's on Amazon and Barnes & Noble, other outlets. | ||
| It's just January 6th. | ||
| Look up Julie Kelly. | ||
| All my work reporting can be found at amgreatness.com. | ||
| I'm on Getter, Julie underscore Kelly, and I'm at Twitter, Julie underscore Kelly 2, where I live tweet some of the trials that are going on with January 6th as well. | ||
| Everybody's got to get on her, get her feed, and follow her. | ||
| She is non-stop in, I tell you, your work. | ||
| And it's only going to get more important. | ||
| The 6th January thing, we're going to get to the bottom of it. | ||
| The real bottom of it, okay? | ||
| See exactly what happened. | ||
| And then figure out how these guys are kept as political prisoners like they kept these poor working class folks in Michigan. | ||
| They're going after the weakest to try to break them. | ||
| They're trying to make this case about domestic terrorism. | ||
| It's all crap, okay? | ||
| What the FBI and the DOJ ought to be doing is looking at what's going on in New York City today. | ||
| Innocent people gunned down, trying to go to work. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| That's the anarchy and chaos of these progressive Democrats. | ||
| Anarchy and chaos. | ||
| Anarchy and chaos, and we're going to put an end to it. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| We're going to blow you guys out in November. | ||
| All right. | ||
| then be gone. Don't hear about it anymore. Except for being held accountable. Bill Barr and Chris Ray. Chris Ray's a disgrace. This is another Christie guy. This is what happens when you allow Chris Christie to make recommendations. | ||
| Julie Kelly, thank you. Honored to have you on, ma'am. Keep fighting. | ||

|
All right. Thank you so much, Steve. | |
| OK, let's go to I want to go to the Vatican now and Ben Harnwell. | ||
| Ben, walk us through what's going on today and then what can we plan on for the rest of the week, sir? | ||
| Morning, Steve. | ||
| Yes, well, today in the traditional Catholic liturgy is Indignation Tuesday. | ||
| This is the day of Holy Week when we remember the indignation of Jesus Christ when he cleared out the traitors From the temple with the whip made of cords, if you remember. | ||
| This is today when the reading in the Gospel brings us together and we concentrate on how it is possible for institutional Christianity to be corrupted by its dedication to money and the abuse of power to personal profit. | ||
| So this is a stepping up as we move ever more closely towards the Easter Triduum, which starts on Thursday, on Maundy Thursday. | ||
| Then we have Good Friday and then we have Holy Saturday when Christ our Lord is in the tomb. | ||
| So this is the psychological preparation now as it steps up as we move towards these events, the most sacred events really in the whole of the Christian calendar. | ||
| Walk us through, what is, have pilgrims and tourists returned to Rome? | ||
| I mean, I've been there over Easter and it's just absolutely extraordinary. | ||
| It's also absolutely packed. | ||
| Has the CCP virus started to wane enough, at least in people's consciousness, that you're starting to see this influx from all over the world? | ||
| one of the amazing things at Easter is you see Catholics and Christians from all four corners of the earth. Are we starting to see that again? | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| As I've been standing here waiting to go and see if I've heard so many different languages from the tourists and pilgrims behind me. | ||
| I don't know if you heard a troop of young girls just over my shoulder that were chanting about 30 seconds ago. | ||
| No masks in sight really. | ||
| Covid is a distant memory. | ||
| And I think people are just looking forward to dedicate themselves now to their devotions in Holy Week and then following week, Easter week. | ||
| What scale, when you talk about the celebrations and commemorations of Good Friday and different things are going on, what size crowds are there? | ||
| What numbers of people turn out for the Good Friday commemoration and also for Easter Sunday? | ||
| Well, here in the piazza behind me, we'll be talking, it'll be sort of Tens of thousands. | ||
| It really depends because they're limited now for security and there have been for years for the number of people that they will actually allow it here in the piazza. | ||
| But the overspill goes all the way down here, down the Via della Conciliazione, all the way down to the river. | ||
| So it depends. | ||
| You know, Covid, as you say, is a factor, but from the people I'm talking to, I think they're going to come here anyway because this is the first time Well, in three years when they'll be able to participate in a normal Easter after so many sacrifices. | ||
| Let's go to, I want to go to the politics of all of it, and particularly what's happening in France. | ||
| We had the first round on Sunday. | ||
| We kind of called this, and I think you've got a very interesting theory of the case, that it looked like just from some of the numbers we saw coming in that this thing would break out in a day or two to 53, roughly 53-47 unless there was some major coalition building. | ||
| Is that what the polling's showing right now, roughly? | ||
| It's 53% for Macron, 47% for Le Pen? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| The most recent poll puts Macron on 52.8% and Le Pen on 47.2%. | ||
| And I did some number crunching earlier, Steve, and I divided up Mélenchon, who's the hard-left candidate who got his career best Of 22% on Sunday. | ||
| And I worked out, according to the polls, of specifically his 22% of how they divide out between Le Pen and Macron. | ||
| 31% of Mélenchon's voters say they'll support Macron and only, excuse me, 31% will support Marine Le Pen and 28% Macron. | ||
| So that's more of his support going to Marine Le Pen. | ||
| But you know what? | ||
| I don't think it's going to be enough. | ||
| Because in terms of breaking that down, that gives Macron 6.16% and Le Pen 6.82%. | ||
| So it's like half a percent in it. | ||
| And she's going to need to pull something out of the hat if she wants to be able to get over that 50% mark. | ||
| in less than two weeks time. | ||
| And as we discussed yesterday on the show, I think the best thing she has to do, now it might sound inconceivable, but the best thing I think she should do is announce that she's going to make Jean-Luc Manon her prime minister for her first presidential term. | ||
| And if people say, well, you know, this is ridiculous, I don't think it is any more ridiculous. | ||
| And I remember, Steve, I remember being here in Italy and the famous election, when you basically brought Luigi Di Maio and Matteo Salvini together. | ||
| And I remember thinking... | ||
| Poor old Steve. | ||
| He's on a hiding to nothing here. | ||
| They're never going to come together and form a coalition because there's just not the glue there. | ||
| You were right. | ||
| I was wrong. | ||
| And it was a brilliant government. | ||
| It didn't last the whole mandate. | ||
| But they were able to put some policy differences aside in order to come together and say, OK, here's what we're going to do. | ||
| We're going to have an Italy first coalition. | ||
| We're going to put Italians First, we're going to reject, because don't forget that the Five Star Movement was sort of populist, whereas the Lega Movement was more nationalist. | ||
| We're going to concentrate on putting Italian people first, and it was a great, great government, and its success, and the fact that they came together, Yeah. | ||
| I don't want to take credit for that, but it was one of my big ideas. | ||
| I think the idea here, and you see Jerome Revere and some guys I respect that said, hey, she's drifted too far left on some issues anyway. | ||
| There's a deal to be cut there, definitely. | ||
| Short commercial break. | ||
| back to Rome in just a moment. | ||

Let's take down the CCP. | |
| Please disinfect, reduce the number of people, please ventilate, scientific prevention, civil society follow. | ||
| Wear a mask, wash your hands, keep warm, please disinfect, reduce the number of people, please ventilate, scientific prevention. | ||
| Okay, that's a robot dog in Shanghai telling the people to stay inside. | ||
| Don't come out. | ||
| This is what's patrolling the streets now. | ||
| Going on in Shanghai is absolutely stunning what's happening. | ||
| Although the Financial Times, there is some information coming out. | ||
| I don't know if it's totally true, but they may be easing up on this because people are sitting there going, we're starving to death. | ||
| We haven't had food. | ||
| In four or five days and there's no stores open, there's no delivery. | ||
| Jack Posoba called a terrorist lockdown. | ||
| I mean, it's it's it's hard. | ||
| It's not that you can have Uber Eats kind of show up or even slip out for a couple hours a day and go for 30 minutes and go to the market and get food. | ||
| I'm not even sure the markets have food. | ||
| It looks like the entire city has been in hard lockdown. | ||
| Also breaking news. | ||
| And this is there's a lesson here, ladies and gentlemen, if you take three November seriously and you try to get to the bottom of it, you try to get to the bottom of the certification of the Biden electors. | ||
| Good things will happen if you don't. | ||
| And people don't think you're doing it. | ||
| Good things are not going to happen to you politically. | ||
| Jay Corman is announcing there's a leak out that he is going to announce today. | ||
| He is ending his gubernatorial bid. | ||
| Uh, in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. | ||
| And that comes on the heels of, uh, his investigation kind of being hung up. | ||
| And I think people, uh, there were a lot of people telling him if he was going to run, given that he had sent the letter into Pence and McConnell to say, hey, you need to send these back. | ||
| We need to review the process here. | ||
| We're not comfortable it was done correctly. | ||
| Right? | ||
| And that's, that's all, uh, 6 January was about, was about the state legislatures making sure That they could ascertain that the process for certifying the Biden electors was appropriate. | ||
| And you would have found that you were a decertified Georgia, Pennsylvania, Arizona, and wait for it, Wisconsin. | ||
| OK. | ||
| And we wouldn't have had this mess you had today on this illegitimate regime. | ||
| Ben, before I go to Shanghai, which is a kind of a mystery wrapped in a riddle, encapsulated with an enigma, I guess is a kind of a bastardization of Winston Churchill. | ||
| I want to go to Ukraine. | ||
| And the latest, I can tell you right now, Zero Hedge has got a great analysis about how TV coverage has just fallen off the ledge. | ||
| Except for CNN, which has to prove to its new boss, John Malone, that it's going to do its opinion through its news coverage, not through its, I hate Orange Man, bad opinion shows at night. | ||
| What's the latest on the Ukraine about trying to get to the table and get some sort of deal worked out? | ||
| Is that totally blown apart right now? | ||
| Well, Putin himself said that the peace talks are effectively dead. | ||
| He said this in some anniversary celebrations for Yuri Gagarin's 61 years ago being the first man in space. | ||
| And he said that basically the reason that the peace talks are derailed It's because Kiev had been staging what he called were fake claims of Russian war crimes and for demanding security guarantees which covered the total territory of Ukraine, which obviously includes the parts that are already under Russian control. | ||
| So Putin himself said basically that the peace talks are dead. | ||
| And they're now in this for the long haul. | ||
| Incidentally, Steve, oh, by the way, Zelensky, his intervention in the last 24 hours was to ask Europe to ban totally the liquid, the Russian natural gas. | ||
| and which has put some pressure uh... meeting back a little bit not to mean the pen who came up with a very strong statement saying that they would not that that that would be her policy that that that france continues to need and the need to import question gas and for its economy which is exactly the same position as all of shorts in in germany and so it uh... and put it yes so yet now i i think that the reason for that is is that the underlying business | ||
| model for Western Europe doesn't work unless you get cheap Russian gas. | ||
| I mean, if they're prepared to totally restructure their economies, and in doing so, the entire structure of the economic part of their society, have at it. | ||
| I mean, the Greens have basically taken away any other opportunity. | ||
| They've killed nuclear power. | ||
| They've done everything else to stop any other type of, except for the sustainable wind and solar, which can't power anything in Western Europe. | ||
| They've gone out of their way to kill any other type of alternative, and that's why they're beholden to Russia. | ||
| And now they refuse to. | ||
| They're underwriting this war. | ||
| You know, the Chinese Communist Party and the nations of Europe are underwriting Putin's military. | ||
| It's pretty obvious. | ||
| And until you get to that... Look, Zelensky's not a dumb guy. | ||
| He's asking, I need air cover. | ||
| I need an iron dome. | ||
| I need a no-fly zone. | ||
| I need combat troops. | ||
| I need you guys to stop underwriting this. | ||
| Because you kind of promises that. | ||
| NATO and EU, you kind of led us on to this, what Marshall said, they led him down the primrose path. | ||
| And the cities look like Dresden right now. | ||
| And the civilians and particularly the dead in Ukraine, obviously the Russians killed them, but who led them into that trap? | ||
| And then kind of sat back and said, oh, this is really terrible. | ||
| And, you know, this is awful. | ||
| And Donald Trump got us here. | ||
| I mean, that's essentially what all this greatness of Biden. | ||
| And I think you're starting to see from the polling people just had it. | ||
| Right? | ||
| They want to focus on domestic issues, which are of the highest import, and if they've got to focus on international issues, it's the Russians' partner, and that's the Chinese Communist Party. | ||
| I might also say Ben Harnwell is sitting there at the Vatican. | ||
| They're the partner of the Vatican, too, because we still don't know the secret deal In this day and age, and Ben, you know this, that the Vatican is a city-state, is a part of the UN, you're not supposed to have secret deals. | ||
| That's what got us into World War I. Everybody had these secret deals and codicils and all these side agreements that nobody knew about that led to the First World War happening so quickly after the assassination in Sarajevo, 30 days later, then a global conflict that kills, what, I don't know, 100 million people? | ||
| Because of side deals. | ||
| The CCP's involved in the Vatican, as it is in Berlin, and it almost is more in Moscow, but it's a lot in the Italian state with One Belt, One Road, and particularly in the Vatican. | ||
| The Vatican's up to their neck with the Chinese Communist Party. | ||
| Ben, real quickly, I know you go live at noon. | ||
| How do people get to Harnwell and Getter? | ||
| Yep, it's there, that's where I am. | ||
| Exclusively on Getter, pushing out my analysis for the day. | ||
| It's simply my surname, Steve. | ||
| It's at Hanwell. | ||
| On Getter, at Hanwell. | ||
| And I might just quickly add what you were just saying about the Vatican. | ||
| Cardinal Parolin, who's the Vatican's Prime Minister, said today that he wants to see amendments to his secret treaty with China, but they won't tell us what's in the treaty. | ||
| We'll discuss that tomorrow. | ||
| Ben Harnwell, thank you. | ||
| Live from the Vatican. | ||
| Five o'clock tonight. | ||
| It's going to be explosive. | ||
| Come back. | ||
| Strap in. |
