The virus has now killed more than 100 people in China and new cases have been confirmed around the world. | |
| So you don't want to frighten the American public. | ||
| France and South Korea have also got evacuation plans. | ||
| But you need to prepare for and assume. | ||
| Broadly warning Americans to avoid all non-essential travel to China. | ||
| That this is going to be a real serious problem. | ||
| France, Australia, Canada, the US, Singapore, Cambodia, Vietnam, the list goes on. | ||
| Health officials are investigating more than a hundred 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 and the worst happens, War Room. | ||

Pandemic. | |
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Welcome, it's Wednesday, 11 May, Year of Our Lord 2022. | ||
| Of course, in a day that we have more horrific inflation statistics, the CPI came out today, horrific again, markets in total turmoil. | ||
| Naturally, we passed last night without reading it. | ||
| The House did a 40 billion dollar unfunded bailout of the Ukrainian oligarchs. | ||
| We've got a lot to go through today. | ||
| The Senate's going to be taking that up. | ||
| We're going to have everybody on this, on the phones, manning the ramparts. | ||
| Later, the courts have stepped in. | ||
| A state court in Florida, guess what, has put a kibosh, at least temporarily, on the redistricting plan that Governor DeSantis fought for. | ||
| And we're going to have Anthony Sabatini on here about that. | ||
| In Colorado, Tina Peters has been ruled by a judge that she cannot oversee the 2022 election. | ||
| Didn't take her off the ballot, but said you can't oversee what your existing position is in Mesa County. | ||
| In Wisconsin, we've got, I think there's five different lawsuits that are tangling up the investigation there. | ||
| Governor Scott Walker will be on later. | ||
| Cleta Mitchell will be on later. | ||
| Get to everything on the voter side. | ||
| We're going to have more economics capital markets. | ||
| Geopolitics. | ||
| In the second hour, a lot of politics. | ||
| We're going to have Eric Greitens in Missouri, Blake Masters in Arizona, and a raft of congressmen, people running for Congress that would say exactly how they would vote on this $40 billion bailout of the Ukrainian oligarchs. | ||
| But we've got to start We're really and this reminds me back to November, December of 2020 in the early days of 2021, the center of the political world on a global basis came to the great Peach State, Georgia, to focus on the runoffs there for the first of the voter fraud and then the runoffs. | ||
| Senator David Perdue joins us. | ||
| Announced today, last night, President Trump had a stunning victory. | ||
| It was called at 8.51 p.m. | ||
| Eastern Daylight Time. | ||
| It was Trump vs. Manchin in West by God, Virginia. | ||
| President Trump's candidate, Rudy, just blew the opposition away. | ||
| Also was the anti-infrastructure Collaborators discussion the President Trump had so he beat Manchin but in in Nebraska and something it was very nasty very tough the Ricketts family that actually has obviously national ambitions the Ricketts family as candidate one and beat a Charles Herbster Tonight, announced this morning about Georgia. | ||
| You're going to have Pete Ricketts, Governor Ricketts of Nebraska, Chris Christie of New Jersey, the former governor, and Steve Ducey, the governor of Arizona, stepping down. | ||
| Those three governors announced they're coming to Georgia to back current Governor Brian Kemp, and they're going to tour with him and have a bunch of events. | ||
| So I want to bring in Senator Perdue to get the update. | ||
| Senator Perdue, it kind of sounds like the Battle of Waterloo. | ||
| You got armies coming from all over. | ||
| They're bringing in... Brian Kemp has a meeting or goes raises money or Karl Rove's all over him with the Bush family. | ||
| Next thing you know, you got every never-Trumper. | ||
| I mean, this is historic. | ||
| I've never seen a gathering of Pete Ricketts in Nebraska, never-Trumper. | ||
| Chris Christie, you know, turned on the president losing. | ||
| Steve Doocy, the worst in the country. | ||
| Maybe, I guess Kemp's the worst in the country, close to it. | ||
| They're all coming together. | ||
| Senator Perdue, what have you done to get three governors coming in hot to take you on in this primary, sir? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, they're all coming in. | |
| The U.S. | ||
| Chamber of Commerce, the Georgia Chamber of Commerce, the Republican Governors Association, they're all in here. | ||
| The RGA has put $5 million or so in here against us in the primary. | ||
| I mean, these guys are only trying to protect career politician Brian Kemp. | ||
| He's been in elected office for 20 years. | ||
| He's a fellow governor. | ||
| They're drawing the circle of ranks around him. | ||
| And that's why I went to Texas last week with Bush and Karl Rove. | ||
| This is a desperate governor. | ||
| This is an incumbent that's having trouble getting to 50 percent. | ||
| But what is happening here in Georgia, and they all know it, all these national figures are coming down here. | ||
| For me, it's a badge of honor. | ||
| What they're recognizing is that the people of Georgia are standing up for truth. | ||
| That's the only thing I've done, is said, look, I got in here because Brian Kemp has divided our party over the elections, denied anything happened, certified the election, allowed it to happen, denied it happened, has been covering up ever since, and now he's suppressing evidence in this, as we see with the 2000 mules evidence that's coming out now. | ||
| And I just don't believe he can pull the party together to beat Stacey Abrams. | ||
| That's why I got in here. | ||
| So these Republican governors had better wake up and realize if they want this Republican seat, they better get somebody that can beat Stacey Abrams. | ||
| And Brian Kemp is not that person. | ||
| I'm not even sure he can get 50 percent in a Republican primary right now. | ||
| I think that's a big issue. | ||
| I think everything I'm hearing and the trending of it, everything, is that he's going to be below 50%, so it looks like it could be a runoff. | ||
| But I want to go back to something. | ||
| In the debates, here's what I don't understand. | ||
| Kemp was Secretary of State, I think, for eight years. | ||
| He is a professional politician. | ||
| He has been governor, right? | ||
| He's got a term of governor, of which President Trump and the endorsement of President Trump actually got him the job. | ||
| That was a tough race against Abrams and voter fraud was clearly a big part of that. | ||
| When you had these debates, which I think were the inflection point in the campaign, when you came out both times firing off the football and confronted him about the issues of voter integrity, and particularly about 3 November and what happened, It looked like he was totally unprepared. | ||
| Is it just that he is in that much denial that he didn't think you would bring it up? | ||
| I mean, do you agree with me? | ||
| I mean, he was on his back foot. | ||
| You pressed him. | ||
| And I think that changed the dynamic of the race. | ||
| I think a lot of people in Georgia said, hey, there's a lot going on here and it's not right. | ||
| And David Perdue is on the right side of this issue. | ||
| Senator Perdue. | ||
|
unidentified
|
There's no question, Steve. | |
| Thank you. | ||
| I mean, the governor has lied to us for a year and a half. | ||
| He allowed Stacey Abrams to get the consent decree, which changed our voter ID law for absentee ballots. | ||
| He allowed seven and a half million absentee ballots to be mailed out indiscriminately. | ||
| He allowed for these illegal drop boxes. | ||
| And he allowed Zuckerberg to put $55 million into nine Democrat election boards here and allow the Democrats to rig and steal the election. | ||
| It's just that simple. | ||
| The national media, the fake news has said, oh, this has been disproven. | ||
| That is not true. | ||
| That's a lie. | ||
| Not in any case in the national election of 2020 has anybody disproved this fraud. | ||
| Now, we haven't proved it because the courts keep dismissing these cases over procedural issues. | ||
| In Georgia, the judge in this Jeffords case that Bob Cheney is prosecuting for us, it said that the evidence was compelling and that he ruled to unseal the ballots. | ||
| He later then ruled, though, that they didn't have legal standing, so I picked that case up. | ||
| And what's happening with the governor right now is I think he was incensed because anybody would challenge him. | ||
| He's the sitting governor. | ||
| You know, the crown didn't sit very well on his head that night in the debate. | ||
| And we exposed a weak governor who has not enforced the law. | ||
| He was Secretary of State for nine years. | ||
| My cousin appointed him. | ||
| He had two full terms, and he's had a full term now as governor, and he has not enforced election law. | ||
| As we sit here tonight, he has not enforced the law, and nobody's been prosecuted for the massive voter fraud that occurred here in Georgia. | ||
| It's just as simple as that. | ||
| Early voting, Steve, as people were responding to that. | ||
| The early voting has just been massive, and John Ferguson will come in and give an analysis. | ||
| I'm going to bring up one more topic while we got you, that I think is connected, because it talks about these country called Republicans that don't want to fight, and obviously he's afraid of being called a racist or a nativist or whatever in the voter fraud situation. | ||
| But in the crime situation, which is out of control in the state, and Georgia is such a fantastic state, it's out of control. | ||
| Why is he not taking action? | ||
| He's not taking action on the election integrity and the voter fraud and the stealing of the election. | ||
| He's also somehow frozen in place, not taking action on law and order and crime. | ||
| Why is that, sir? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I wish I knew the answer. | |
| You know, he said he wanted to keep his powder dry when I pushed him into the debate about why he wouldn't let Buckhead have a vote for their own protection, their own city. | ||
| He's buried his head. | ||
| He's hard-headed about trying to do the right thing. | ||
| Right now, Atlanta has the largest or the greatest murder rate, the highest murder rate in the country. | ||
| Rapes and murders are up 60% in Georgia. | ||
| We have more illegal immigrants than Arizona right now, Steve. | ||
| At the same time, on this governor's watch, he's not been enforcing law, and he has not assured personal safety. | ||
| That's what people are concerned about. | ||
| It's the number two or three issue in this race. | ||
| At the same time, he's allowed five Democrat-run cities to cut their short 1,200 police officers. | ||
| The city of Atlanta's short 430 police officers themselves. | ||
| This is on the governor's watch. | ||
| He says, well, I'm not the mayor of Atlanta. | ||
| I can't do anything about that. | ||
| That's nonsense. | ||
| Of course he can. | ||
| He can withhold state funds as long as these cities Are defunding the police and that's what's going on in Georgia right now. | ||
| They just don't talk about it. | ||
| It's a it's a terrible situation. | ||
| People are afraid for their personal safety and companies are no longer looking at Georgia as a great place to come do business because of the crime issue. | ||
| Senator Perdue, how do people follow you on social media and how they find out more about you in this campaign? | ||
| This is not just a national event right now. | ||
| This is a international global event. | ||
| So how do people follow you? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, thank you, Steve. | |
| I appreciate you letting me do this. | ||
| VotePurdue.com. | ||
| This is a national race to determine the next president of the United States. | ||
| No Republican conservative is going to win in 24 if we lose this government's race to Stacey Abrams. | ||
| Senator Perdue, honored to have you on here. | ||
| Thank you for joining us in the War Room. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you, Steve. | |
| Love War Room. | ||
| Thank you, sir. | ||
| I want to bring in John Fredericks now. | ||
| Is Fredericks down there on the bus? | ||
| John, are you there? | ||
| Can you hear me, brother? | ||
| Yep, we're good. | ||
| Yeah, we're right on the bus live here. | ||
| Day 10 of our bus tour, Steve. | ||
| We are rolling through Georgia. | ||
| Tomorrow morning, the Soda Fountain in Moultrie, Georgia, 6 to 10. | ||
| We'll be on Getter Live there. | ||
| You can go there. | ||
| And Steve, I tell you, we're getting up every day at 5 a.m. | ||
| We love the smell of winning in the morning. | ||
| It really smells good, Steve. | ||
| This has been the rock star event that you can imagine. | ||
| We're getting hundreds of people when we turn out. | ||
| We got President Trump calling in to our bus tour. | ||
| We got President, I'm sorry, Trump calling in for our bus tour Friday at noon, special edition, John Furtick's Media Network, NRV, carrying it, and the reaction is unbelievable. | ||
| Here's the other thing, okay? | ||
| 57% of this record-turning early voters that have been canvassed exit polling say that they believe that Donald Trump and America First should run the Republican Party. | ||
| They're not voting for Brian Kemp. | ||
| Here's the other great news, Steve. | ||
| This is unbelievable. | ||
| The massive numbers that we're getting, this is just like what you and I did in Virginia. | ||
| Steve, it's the same thing. | ||
| This is the Fredericks-Bannon plan. | ||
| Right? | ||
| Same thing. | ||
| Everywhere we go, that is where we're getting the highest turnout. | ||
| Because the bus tour, we go there, we fire people up, it drives them out, that's where the numbers go up. | ||
| David Perdue, we gassed up. | ||
| Perdue was down by 27. | ||
| Kemp was at 58%. | ||
| They were going to Texas, raising money, laughing. | ||
| They were going to be the Never Trumpers. | ||
| He's going to be the face of the Never Trumpers, right? | ||
| Now, we've got two overnight polls out, going to come out on the next day. | ||
| Both of them, Kemp is under 50%. | ||
| And that's all that matters. | ||
| As soon as he gets under 50%, we're actually ahead. | ||
| We've got all the momentum. | ||
| So, they're so desperate now, they've got to have their own bus tour. | ||
| I don't know if your team in Denver has a picture of it. | ||
| They've got their own bus tour coming. | ||
| We call it the Brian Kemp Weasels Are Us bus tour. | ||
| And here's who they got, you mentioned earlier. | ||
| Steve, you can't make this stuff up! | ||
|
unidentified
|
You can't make it up. | |
| You can't make it up. | ||
| That's fine. | ||
| You can't make this stuff up! | ||
| The Pete Ricketts from Nebraska! | ||
| By the way, we gave an alert to everybody in Atlanta. | ||
| If you like Krispy Kreme Donuts, go buy them now. | ||
| Kristy's coming to Atlanta for two days. | ||
| They're gonna be gone. | ||
| Hold it. | ||
| That's John Fredericks. | ||
| And that's John Fredericks making that joke. | ||
| Just saying. | ||
| I just want to put it out there. | ||
| You've got to keep going. | ||
| Hey look, I eat real food. | ||
| And then, if that isn't enough, you've got Ricketts and Christie. | ||
| Now they're bringing in the absolute worst governor in history, except Brian Kemp. | ||
| Doug Ducey from Arizona. | ||
| This is like the Weasel Club for America. | ||
| I think this is very important. | ||
| I didn't want to bring it up to Perdue because I wanted to ask him more important, but I think here's what it is. | ||
| And that's why I wanted to start today in Georgia. | ||
| Once again, the Fredericks, and John Fredericks came up with this. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I mean, the guy was 27 points down. | |
| That's the AJC's poll. | ||
| That's a fact. | ||
| He was 27 points down. | ||
| And Fredericks comes up and says, we've got to do another bus tour. | ||
| A Yunkin bus tour. | ||
| So I said, hey, John, you're going to have to walk me through this. | ||
| And John says that we're going to do the same thing. | ||
| And you can see it. | ||
| It's getting energy. | ||
| The reason I know it's working, it's drawn out the four amigos, the four horsemen of the Never Trump Governor's movement, right? | ||
| Ricketts, Christie, Ducey and Kemp. | ||
| Hey, it's perfect. | ||
| But no, this is what it puts it in high relief. | ||
| Now we know what it's all about. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| There's no hiding or it's like Biden, you know, stealing the election. | ||
| Now you understand what the Democrats are about. | ||
| This thing in Georgia is now black or white. | ||
| There's no there's no gray. | ||
| There's no middle ground here because they're all coming down because they see that Senator Perdue's closing the gap because of the bus tour. | ||
| Get the word out. | ||
|
unidentified
|
John, just stay right there and we'll come right back to you in Georgia. | |
| The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide. | ||
| War Room Pandemic. | ||
| Here's your host Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Okay, MyPillow.com. | ||
| Make sure you go to War Room. | ||
| You've got to put in promo code War Room. | ||
| Go to our square. | ||
| You've got to buy one, get one free sale in categories of towels and sheets and pillows. | ||
| And of course, you've got the biblical pillow and blankets for the kids and grandkids. | ||
| Hey, maybe for yourself. | ||
| You never know. | ||
| Go check it out. | ||
| Today, you need a great night's sleep when you man the ramparts in the War Room. | ||
| I'm telling you, it's coming in so hot. | ||
| We've got the $40 billion oligarch bailout. | ||
| We're going to be getting to that later in the hour. | ||
| We've got to we're about to announce tonight that on Monday, we're going to have a huge webinar with Frank Gaffney, Michelle Bachman and others about this about this pandemic situation at the World Health Organization, taking away the sovereignty by the administration, giving away the sovereignty of the United States to the World Health Organization. | ||
| But how people can get manned up on that and get this thing turned around. | ||
| So it's just we're jammed with everything. | ||
| But first things first, Georgia. | ||
| Center of the political universe, okay? | ||
| The Republican apparatus, the people that think they control and own this party, and that would be the Bush apparatus and all their cliques around it. | ||
| They're sending Pete Ricketts, the head of the current head of RGA. | ||
| You got Chris Christie, former head of the RGA. | ||
| Steve Doocy, I think was head of the elections, either head of the RGA or head of the elections, just stepped down. | ||
| I think he was the guy that stepped down and turned it over to Ricketts. | ||
| So you got Three of the heaviest guys in the Republican governors, all Bush guys, right, all establishment, with the blue blazers and the khakis, coming in to bail out Brian Kemp. | ||
| They wouldn't have done this three weeks ago. | ||
| And John Fredericks and others have fired people up, and I think people are just starting to pay attention, and the debates, and I don't think they were ready for Perdue. | ||
| Who's kind of a courtly southern gentleman to come in hot on these debates. | ||
| John Fredericks, we've seen a total change of the dynamic there. | ||
| I can't, by the way, we're going to do a pregame with you on your amazing noon call with President Trump on the bus tour. | ||
| Real America's Voice, John Fredericks Radio. | ||
| War Room will be doing pregame right before the noon on that. | ||
| And I'm glad to see President Trump is engaged in this now because this is big. | ||
| This is MAGA. | ||
| Versus the Astat. | ||
| We've wanted this fight for a long time, right? | ||
| You can't remember. | ||
| You can't always pick your fights. | ||
| But if you gotta pick one, let's do it in Georgia. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| And let's do it with Brian Kemp. | ||
| It's gotta be that. | ||
| I can't think of four worst guys. | ||
| Ricketts, Christie, Ducey, and Kemp. | ||
| If the grassroots can't get fired up for that, You can't get fired up. | ||
| I know the War Room Posse's fired up. | ||
| I can tell in the chat rooms. | ||
| They're looking. | ||
| Look. | ||
| MAGA's known as MAGA likes to fight. | ||
| It's the fight club. | ||
| Hey, these guys want to do it. | ||
| Come on down and we'll throw down in Georgia. | ||
| John Fredericks. | ||
| Well, it's all come down to this, really. | ||
| They've got the power, they've got the money, they've got the names, but here's what we've got. | ||
| We've got the voters, and they just don't get it. | ||
| And they really think that they can just roll us, and we're coming out in droves. | ||
| You see in these early numbers, every stop we go to, MAGA voters coming out of the woodwork, and they're saying, hey, we've got to get involved. | ||
| We've had enough of these people. | ||
| They're starting, and you nailed it. | ||
| They're sending in the four Horsemen like weasels are us of all time. | ||
| They're sending him in. | ||
| But this vote on May 24th, this is what it is. | ||
| It's exactly what you said. | ||
| It is MAGA. | ||
| It's America First. | ||
| It's the party of Trump versus the old establishment. | ||
| And basically, Georgia is their final front. | ||
| Tear. | ||
| This is what they have to protect. | ||
| They're going to get beat. | ||
| Purdue is going to get in a runoff. | ||
| And then he is going to smoke Brian Kemp in June. | ||
| No question about it. | ||
| Tell you something else. | ||
| We've had so much success here. | ||
| Steve, I've extended the tour right through The May 24th primary. | ||
| We're staying an extra week. | ||
| We're not leaving. | ||
| We're dug in. | ||
| Right now we're in the South. | ||
| We've got to go to other parts of the state. | ||
| We've got to get people fired up. | ||
| We've got to get Perdue fired up as he is now. | ||
| And if we do that, this... Trump getting... Perdue getting into a runoff. | ||
| You nailed it. | ||
| On May 24th. | ||
| And it doesn't matter what percentage that Perdue has. | ||
| Just got to get camp under 50. | ||
| Perdue gets in a runoff. | ||
| This is it. | ||
| We're going to take this party over. | ||
| We're only two weeks away. | ||
| And Steve, this is probably the biggest frontier now of all the elections we have. | ||
| It's all coming down to Georgia. | ||
| In the Bush apparatus and the Never Trumpers, I told you this. | ||
| They're sending Ricketts. | ||
| Ricketts is coming after the Ricketts family victory last night. | ||
| It's a win. | ||
| Right? | ||
| Your record, you are what your record says you are. | ||
| They came after Hearst for dirty, right? | ||
| With all the allegations and stuff like that. | ||
| Trump knows that. | ||
| So, and the press saying, hey, it was a lot of these allegations, even Trump, but hey, whatever it is, Ricketts, and they weren't shy about playing Smash Mouth. | ||
| They just weren't. | ||
| You got Christie as bad as they get, right? | ||
| You got Ducey, a complete dimension zero down there in Arizona. | ||
| The state's not doing anything on the border invasion, not doing anything. | ||
| He's talking. | ||
| He's on Fox all the time. | ||
| There's another Fox guy. | ||
| Non-stop Fox, right? | ||
| Talking, talking, talking. | ||
| He's going to do this, going to do that. | ||
| Strike forces. | ||
| Nothing happens. | ||
| Then Brian Kemp. | ||
| They've picked it. | ||
| They've picked it. | ||
| This is the battle they want to have. | ||
| So hey, for MAGA in Georgia, for the Peach State, for the great patriots down there, Don't say you didn't know about it. | ||
| Don't say, hey, I don't know if the machine works. | ||
| I don't want to hear if the machine works or not. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| We'll deal with that as we do. | ||
| People are going to get all over it like in Virginia. | ||
| You got to get out there. | ||
| You got to get on this bus tour. | ||
| You got to get, you got to be a force multiplier. | ||
| Perdue doesn't have any money. | ||
| He's got Chamber of Commerce. | ||
| He's got RGA. | ||
| They're dumping cash on the thing like crazy. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| This is not going to be won by air game. | ||
| This is going to be run the old-fashioned way, like ground game, like you're seeing up in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania right now. | ||
| John Fredericks, how they follow you on Getter, how they follow you on Twitter, how they follow the John Fredericks Radio Network, and particularly this bus that's ripping through Georgia and firing up all the folks down there in the Peach State. | ||
| It's real easy to get our schedule. | ||

| At noon, right after our show, right after the War Room, on Real America's Voice and the John Frederick Trader Network, a special broadcast. | ||
| President Trump will be calling in to the bus down there. | ||
| We're going to make sure that... I think actually Captain Bannon may be going down there. | ||
| That's what she told me. | ||
| Okay, I want to turn now to... By the way, we're going to stay in the SEC. | ||
| I think we're going to get Mo Brooks in Alabama. | ||
| He's going to be with us tomorrow. | ||
| But I want to go now to Florida. | ||
| I think they're in the SEC, right? | ||
| University of Florida? | ||
| Florida State? | ||
| No, Florida State ACC. | ||
| I want to go to Anthony Sabatini. | ||
| Okay, MSNBC and CNN skipping around. | ||
| They're high-fiving. | ||
| There's word out that a state judge has overturned the redistricting map that the War Room Posse fought with you, Anthony Sabatini, to support Governor DeSantis to get a perfect map. | ||
| Can you tell us what's going on, sir? | ||
|

|
Well, Steve, I think it's a classic cave of just a pushover judge who just caved. | |
| Maybe he was watching what was happening in D.C. | ||
| this last few weeks with justices being hounded by the left. | ||
| But I think he just kind of caved on this. | ||
| The good news is he's just a state circuit trial judge. | ||
| So we're expecting the intermediate appellate court to take this up as early as Monday and actually stop his decision and rule correctly on the map. | ||
| We're still very optimistic. | ||
| We think that our much more vetted conservative judges at the appellate level that largely have been appointed by Governor DeSantis are going to uphold the right law and overturn this lib judge—or actually, technically, this was at one point a Republican-appointed judge, but I think just caved in the eyes of the media. | ||
| I don't think I need to remind your audience that the Democrats here have been going completely Nuts on these maps. | ||
| They shut down the Florida House of Representatives. | ||
| They did a massive protest. | ||
| The media has been on a blitz. | ||
| And so it shouldn't be too surprising that the judge caved in this case. | ||
| But the good news is he's not going to be the final arbiter of this decision. | ||
| Sabatini is not going to go to the Supreme Court. | ||
| We just want to make sure that you've got a district you can run in. | ||
| You've been working like crazy on this thing. | ||
| Stephanie Murthy already quit. | ||
| She says, I don't want to run against Sabatini. | ||
| I'm quitting. | ||
| She's a rock star. | ||
| She says, I'm quitting. | ||
| Is it going to go to the Supreme Court after that or the appellate court on Monday or Tuesday? | ||
| I'm just concerned now about these races of people locking in about where these districts are going to be, sir. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So you got three levels of courts. | |
| You got your circuit court, which a lot of times you have a lot of unvetted judges. | ||
| That's what we had here, a judge that Nobody knew what was going to happen, but of course, as soon as the media was hounding him, he caved and ruled for the radical left. | ||
| But next, it goes to what they call the DCA, the District Court of Appeal. | ||
| We expect them to overrule that judge and offer a favorable ruling. | ||
| But we do think that the left, who has unlimited resources, is going to appeal that decision and bring it all the way to the Florida State Supreme Court. | ||
| Now, that's when it's going to get interesting. | ||
| A majority, actually, a super majority of those judges are disappointed judges who are strict constitutionalists. | ||
| And don't cave. | ||
| They're tough folks we got on there, and we think they're going to make the right decision. | ||
| So we're still very optimistic, and we know good things are going to happen. | ||
| And of course, I was lucky to have a seat no matter what in this situation. | ||
| District 7 here in North Orlando is a pickup seat under any of the proposed maps, and so it was good. | ||
| We did scare Stephanie Murphy out of the race late last year, so we cleared the field early, but now Just gotta get through this Republican primary. | ||
| We're leading by double digits, so we're good right now, but just gotta make sure we get across the finish line and get rid of Pelosi in D.C. | ||
| By the way, the free state of Florida, you guys are on fire down there and competing all the time with Texas and Tennessee and Arizona as the leader. | ||
| Ohio is the leader of the MAGA movement. | ||
| Real quickly, how do people find out more about you? | ||
| How do they track you and how do they get to your site about your campaign? | ||

Thanks, Steve. | |
| It's Sabatini4Congress.com is the campaign site. | ||

| Check me out. | ||
| It's a pretty exciting campaign. | ||
| I'm a real America First Republican, and we've got to take this country back with real fighters who are going to go on offense. | ||
| Sabatini, thanks for the update. | ||
| You guys keep fighting on there. | ||
| We're going to cover this one closely. | ||
| We can't have Mark Elias putting his pretty face back into Florida. | ||
| We've got to get this thing sorted. | ||

War Room. | |
| Pandemic. | ||
| We rejoice when there's no more, let's take down the CCP! | ||
| War Room, Pandemic, with Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide. | ||
| War Room. | ||
| Pandemic. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| We've got a lot to go through, and we're going to try to get to all of it in the next hour. | ||
| I think we're going to get Cleta Mitchell up. | ||
| We've got Ken Blackwell. | ||
| We've got a couple of people running for Congress who want to talk about this $30 billion. | ||
| We've also got Eric Greitens is going to come on and talk about this vote in the Senate. | ||
| Blake Masters, MSNBC's all over Blake Masters. | ||
| It's just absolutely incredible. | ||
| They're all over Blake Masters on some comment he made on a radio show about the Equal Rights Amendment and equal pay and everything like that. | ||
| Here's what I do. | ||
| I got Denver. | ||
| What I want to do, can I play the Chip Roy-Nancy Pelosi package? | ||
| Do you have that ready to go? | ||
| The Chip Roy. | ||
| Let's play. | ||
| I want to hear Chip Roy-Nancy Pelosi. | ||
| Something happened last night that is extraordinary. | ||
| And this ties back to all the races we're talking about. | ||
| This is going to tie back to everything. | ||
| But you got to hear Chip Roy-Texas laying it out last night with Nancy Pelosi. | ||

|
Let's do it. | |
| A gentleman from Maryland talked about protecting this institution or talked about this institution, but we got a $40 billion bill at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. | ||
| I haven't had a chance to review the bill. | ||
| My staff is poring over the pages trying to see what's in it. | ||
| You want to talk about the institution? | ||
| You want to talk about standing up alongside Ukraine? | ||
| Why don't we actually have a debate on the floor of the People's House instead of the garbage of getting a $40 billion bill at 3 o'clock in the afternoon? | ||
| Not paid for, without having any idea what's really in it, with a massive slush fund that goes to the State Department, $13 billion, $8 billion for the Economic Support Fund, $110 million for embassy security, we've got $40 billion that is unpaid for, and you want to sit here and lecture this body about what we're going to do or not do about staying alongside Ukraine? | ||
| Why don't we talk about the American people who are hurting, the wide open borders, the inflation that's killing people, the jobs that people can't get because of the cost of goods and services in this country? | ||
| Sitting here and being lectured to when I don't even have time to look at a $40 billion unpaid bill. | ||
| I make a motion to adjourn. | ||
| The impact that it is having on food for the world. | ||
| So when you're home thinking, what is this all about? | ||
| Just think about, when I was hungry, you fed me. | ||
| In the Gospel of Matthew. | ||
| It also is so pleased that Mr. Meeks, the chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee, was with us because we talked about sanctions. | ||
| They think you're fools. | ||
| Here's the demon in charge. | ||
| And think of what she's doing this week on the intimidation of judges and what they're doing to back this thing on Roe v. Wade and her demonology. | ||
| And she's sitting there with the gall. | ||
| To quote from the Holy Word of God, she's gonna go to the Gospel of Matthew, which is obviously the most social justice warrior of the Gospels, right? | ||
| She's gonna go to the Gospel of Matthew and use that as justification. | ||
| To show you the lack of respect that they have for you, remember we just had a five, what, two, 5.2, 5.5 trillion dollar appropriations bill passed. | ||
| How they really, not budgets, budgets are phony. | ||
| The appropriations bill is how the money gets carved up, right? | ||
| 1.5 trillion of that was It's unfunded. | ||
| In fact, when Biden talks about he's cut the budget three and a billion last year and a one and a half trillion this year, what he means is that those massive bailouts, like the 1.9 American plant, those things, just because his deficit's now a trillion and a half, he takes that, oh, it was three trillion, so we cut it in half. | ||
| We're getting there. | ||
| No, it's all phony. | ||
| It's all a lie. | ||
| It's all spin. | ||
| And Chip Roy called it out. | ||
| Remember, we passed the 5.2 trillion appropriation bill, which was 2,700 pages tall. | ||
| And these are not, it's not some graphic novel. | ||
| It's not a comic book. | ||
| It's not even a novel. | ||
| It's not something you pick up at the airport. | ||
| This is like a legal document because every paragraph connects to another paragraph. | ||
| I mean, every sentence is negotiated. | ||
| Every clause is negotiated. | ||
| You ever seen that great House of Cards episode where they're doing, you know, he's down in his home state of South Carolina, but they're negotiating the part of the education bill. | ||
| And they're in a conference room back there. | ||
| Everything is negotiated, fought on. | ||
| This is what lobbyists get paid for, for changing the comma to put it there. | ||
| So we just did that, and remember we did that in the middle of the night in the Senate? | ||
| Because $10 billion. | ||
| They had to get to Ukraine. | ||
| Ukraine needed $10 billion immediately. | ||
| Immediately. | ||
| Had to do it. | ||
| Had to go there. | ||
| So they've been cooking on this. | ||
| It started at $33 billion. | ||
| They upped it to $7 billion to show how much they lack of respect they have for you. | ||
| And also to tell you, it's a tell, because they understand there's going to be a firestorm over this next one. | ||
| Because guess what? | ||
| We got the debt ceiling. | ||
| Remember they kicked the debt ceiling? | ||
| For those who have been following the show for a while, you understand. | ||
| They kicked the debt ceiling past the November election. | ||
| So they gotta pay off all their lobbyist buddies. | ||
| There's $40 billion, $20 billion of armament. | ||
| I think it may have been kicked up to $23 billion now with the $40 billion. | ||
| And the rest, they got State Department, they got stuff spread all over to all their buddies, all their NGOs. | ||
| And they don't have enough respect for you To even reader understand, they get the bill, hot off the press, at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, they're just sitting there, no debate, no hearings, no nothing. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Because the Ukrainian guys come on TV and hector us every day. | ||
| Just remember, in Ukraine, which is the third most corrupt, and I want all the Conservative Inc. | ||
| fanboys, particularly all the fanboys out there with the pom-poms for Zelensky, just remember, it's the third most corrupt nation on Earth. | ||
| Now he's been there since, I don't know, 19. | ||
| He got in a couple weeks before they had the phone call. | ||
| The perfect phone call that ended up impeaching the President with the same cast of characters that you see on TV every night. | ||
| Same cast of characters. | ||
| He's made no dent in the oligarchs. | ||
| These oligarchs are just as wealthy as the Russian oligarchs. | ||
| It's just different. | ||
| The Ukrainian oligarchs. | ||
| They're not putting in a penny. | ||
| There's no commitment of taking any assets from anybody in Ukraine and putting it into the deal. | ||
| Europe has no commitments here. | ||
| In fact, billions of dollars are going to go into European security analysis, European security, all these kind of different programs, programmatically. | ||
| Because Europe's dead, they're deadbeats. | ||
| The sense that they're very good people, they're great people. | ||
| The leaders are completely corrupt. | ||
| It's all party of Davos, or Brussels, or NATO. | ||
| You know, all these elites run Europe. | ||
| Hey, it's the reason that everybody in your family chain got the hell out of there. | ||
| Right? | ||
| They said, as bad as America, I'm sure, is going to be, and as hard as it's going to be, and tough as it's going to be, at least I can try to do it on my own without this aristocracy over there. | ||
| It hasn't changed. | ||
| It's still aristocracy. | ||
| You know, the French in the revolution started taking care of the landed gentry, but you still have an aristocracy. | ||
| It's still very class-structured there. | ||
| Now you got them in Brussels, NATO, Davos, all of them. | ||
| They're very top-down. | ||
| People are good, but they don't arouse the people, so they don't pay for NATO. | ||
| They don't pay for their defense. | ||
| All the polling shows that half of their nations, virtually all of them, would not defend their own country if called to arms. | ||
| Their own country, much less Ukraine. | ||
| They don't pay for the defense. | ||
| They're not throwing any money into this deal. | ||
| We've already put, because of the $10 billion that was in the first 5.2, we already have $16 billion into the deal. | ||
| Signed this Lend-Lease thing yesterday in the White House, big thing, 1942 Act, I'm like FDR. | ||
| We showed you the difference, at least then it was a Lend-Lease. | ||
| They had to pay it back. | ||
| There were terms. | ||
| This is just a giveaway. | ||
| No, no, no recoupment. | ||
| None. | ||
| Zero. | ||
| So you have 16 billion in 40 billion. | ||
| Is this for the entire war? | ||
| No, it's not. | ||
| This is for five months. | ||
| So we're going to be at, let me do the 56 billion dollars. | ||
| We just got out of. | ||
| A trillion, nine trillion dollars in Iraq and Afghanistan. | ||
| Remember, when I was in the White House, fighting to get us out of Afghanistan in a logical way, they sit there, right there, they look you in the eye and they lie to you. | ||
| They go, well, it's going to cost five billion dollars, eight billion dollars. | ||
| I said, no, it's not. | ||
| No, it's not. | ||
| I got a history here. | ||
| I can do it. | ||
| I worked at Goldman Sachs. | ||
| I went to Harvard Business School. | ||
| I know how to do the math. | ||
| We're going to sit here. | ||
| We're going to go through line by line, OK? | ||
| And I'm going to prove that you're a liar. | ||
| And they were liars. | ||
| Eric Prince did the op-ed in the Washington Post, or Wall Street Journal, excuse me, President Trump's on Fox TV. | ||
| Says it's going to cost $50 or $60 billion a year. | ||
| Guess what it costs every year? | ||
| I'm going to throw a random number out, about $50 billion. | ||
| They're just lying. | ||
| Defense contracts gotta be paid, the war machine's gotta be paid. | ||
| Look, I'm as big a hawk as possible. | ||
| I'm sanctioned by the Chinese Communist Party, first civilian in history. | ||
| Why? | ||
| I'm ahead of what is called the Super Hawks. | ||
| There's looking to destroy and take down the transnational organization, the criminal organization, is the Chinese Communist Party. | ||
| I'm not afraid of using the 7th Fleet in the South China Sea or defending Taiwan, or actually using economic warfare to defend Hong Kong. | ||
| Which, by the way, the CCP arrested Cardinal Zen today. | ||
| Okay, as predicted by Myles Gould and others that was going to happen. | ||
| So it's not that we're not hawks and not that we want we're not neocons. | ||
| We don't want to be everywhere. | ||
| And now you're in a ill-defined border war on the eastern border of Ukraine. | ||
| And Kamala Harris goes over there and she comes back and Joanne Reed does this interview. | ||
| I think they're down in Mississippi when they do it. | ||
| And Joanne reads this very formal interview and she says, you know, Vice President, We're going to talk about Varanasi, but I want you to talk about your trip and talk to us about Ukraine. | ||
| And Jory and Reek, it's t-ball. | ||
| She tees it up right there. | ||
| Okay, Kamala, you're going to go yard on this. | ||
| Tease it up right there. | ||
| Tell us what is our task and purpose. | ||
| Tell the audience about Ukraine. | ||
| And she says, well, we're in Ukraine for the territorial integrity and the sovereignty and the self-determination of the Ukrainian people, and the sovereignty of Ukraine and its territorial integrity. | ||
| That's why we're there, because that's part of the international rules-based order, and that's why we're going to pick this fight, like the Republican establishment picking the fight down in Georgia. | ||
| We're going to pick this fight right there. | ||
| That's on the Eurasian landmass, which we've avoided only in the history of the United States of America, including in World War Two, which under no circumstances would we ever send anything like this over there. | ||
| Without one sent to the southern border. | ||
| Joe Biden hasn't been there. | ||
| Nancy Pelosi hasn't been there. | ||
| They're just in your face. | ||
| And now you've got 150 Republicans including all of our leadership. | ||
| Except for Jordan and Banks that voted no. | ||
| And the Senate's up there and they're running around. | ||
| And Mitch McConnell says there's no higher priority in Ukraine. | ||
| Well, who's the Ukrainian party? | ||
| It should be a party for the Ukrainian people. | ||
| I admire the Ukrainian people for fighting for their nationhood and their national sovereignty and their territorial integrity. | ||
| I understand it's in dispute. | ||
| It's been in dispute for only, I'm going to pick a random number, 5,000 years. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| And it's going to be in dispute 5,000 years from now. | ||
| And no little map that the EU draws is going to change that. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| And this is the exact type of conflict we should never be involved in. | ||
| And people remember Vietnam? | ||
| People remember the Iraq War? | ||
| People remember Afghanistan? | ||
| So what is it? | ||
| What is the dynamic? | ||
| What is the dynamic that makes this continue to happen? | ||
| And what is the dynamic to make the people come up here that swear to you and go back to you at home and said, I'm a fighter, I'm authentic, I'm a fighter, and I'm going to represent you. | ||
| I want to know in this audience, how many people go to Getter right now and jump on there, give me a response. | ||
| In the chat rooms, Real Americans, all the different chat rooms, I have hundreds of thousands of people in all these different chat rooms and forums and all that. | ||
| Tell me right now, is that what you want? | ||
| Do you want $40 billion for the next five months? | ||
| Because I can tell you, This is how, right, this is how you start in Iraq. | ||
| You're gonna beat a trillion pretty quickly. | ||
| You're already at, you're already at, what, over 50 billion. | ||
| And we're just getting going. | ||
| Party's just starting. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| That's where this is headed. | ||
| That's where this is headed. | ||
| And yet they're going to fight you in courts on everything to do. | ||
| Wisconsin's got five lawsuits going against Gableman, right? | ||
| They got lawsuits everywhere. | ||
| They're suing the Purdue thing in Georgia. | ||
| They're suing everybody. | ||
| They're trying to chop block you, whether it's in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, in Arizona, in Georgia, in Wisconsin. | ||
| They'll put up a defense. | ||
| They got a better defense than the Ukrainians got against the Russians. | ||
| The Ukrainians got a pretty good job. | ||
| Pretty tough guys. | ||
| So this is where we are. | ||
| This is an inflection point. | ||
| And it's in the middle of this primary season. | ||
| You got all these different things in the land of the blind. | ||
| The one eyed man is king. | ||
| OK, and what you're trying to do is put the hairy one and a hairy eyeball on this thing and try to, you know, get rid of the fog of war and cut to the chase of what this is about. | ||
| This is about these globalists and this thing called the postwar international rules based order, which is their apparatus that allowed the Chinese Communist Party to come from a Backward undeveloped third world nation right under the Chinese with our money and our technology to become an existential threat. | ||
| What do they made money off of? | ||
| It's pretty simple. | ||
| I can walk you through the math. | ||
| I can walk you through the players. | ||
| I can walk you through the structure. | ||
| We do it every day here. | ||
| And now they're just shoveling 40 billion dollars not funded. | ||

| By the way, we have this partnership with Lee Greenwood. | ||
| You know, his publisher turned down all these many hit books, and obviously one of the musical geniuses of the late 20th century, early 21st century, great patriotic songwriter and singer, performer. | ||
| They turned down when he wanted to put together the King James Version of the Old and New Testament, the Holy Bible, with The divinely inspired founding documents of our nation. | ||
| That was too much for the publisher. | ||
| The publisher, I think, subsequently went on and published, one of their imprints published the Satanic Bible. | ||

| These are stories of Christians in Muslim lands that have been persecuted. | ||
| Remember though, we're a desert church. | ||
| The church was founded and came out of the desert, right, of North Africa and the Middle East. | ||
| And we seem to have lost that. | ||
| We've lost that over the last, what, I don't know, about 1,500 years, but particularly in the 20th century. | ||
| The amount of Christianity and the number of Christians in monasteries and churches in the Middle East was incredible. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| A vibrant community and much of that is gone. | ||
| And it is. | ||
| And remember, you see Cardinal Zen arrested today in Hong Kong at the underground, the leader of the underground Catholic Church in China, in the Middle East. | ||
| The church today on a global basis is more persecuted than the first century church of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. | ||
| We're going to bring in Casey Chalk now, the author of The Persecuted. | ||
| Casey, tell us about the book. | ||
| What inspired you and why should people buy this? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you so much for having me on. | |
| So, The Persecuted tells the story of the suffering that Christians across the Muslim world are experiencing today. | ||
| The numbers really are amazing and horrifying. | ||
| We're talking about hundreds of millions of Christians who are suffering all kinds of forms of persecution. | ||
| Some of it intimidation, harassment, inability, access to various jobs, but sometimes very violent Um, forms of persecution, including a number of Pakistani families that I got to know very well when they sought asylum in Thailand where I was living several years ago. | ||
| Um, these are families who, uh, have had family members who, uh, female family members who were abducted by Muslim militants and married off and have never been heard from again. | ||
| Uh, family members who have been physically assaulted, beaten within an inch of their life. | ||
| And as I discussed in The Persecuted, we're talking about a country where suicide attacks happen regularly against Christian communities and have killed scores of innocent Christians over the last couple decades. | ||
| What was it that motivated you to, at this point in time, to do this book now? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, I was very much inspired by their stories, getting to know them over several years while living overseas. | |
| I think that the plight of the persecuted church, especially in the Muslim world, is something that Americans and those across the West don't hear about very much from liberal corporate media. | ||
| It's not a story that attracts very much attention. | ||
| But these are people who are heroes. | ||
| They're saints. | ||
| Oftentimes they're martyrs. | ||
| Their stories need to be told. | ||
| And I wanted to give a voice to them, and I was very grateful for the publisher to give me that opportunity, and many other publications who have featured my writing on this, from the Federalist to the American Conservative. | ||
| So I wanted to bring more attention to this, hopefully bring some relief to these impoverished and marginalized communities, and hopefully get some change, wherever we're talking in the Muslim world, that we would get some changes so that we could protect these vulnerable communities. | ||
| Casey, you've got the Middle East, but you also have Africa, particularly Sub-Saharan Africa, and you have certain areas of Asia where I say right now the persecution there is as bad as the first century. | ||
| Why is this, in your opinion, we've got about a minute and a half, why is this not preached from the pulpit of both the Catholic Church and the Evangelical Christian churches and the mainline Protestant churches here in the United States? | ||
| Why is this not preached every Sunday? | ||

I certainly think it should be preached a lot more regularly than it is. | |
| I mean, these are our brothers and sisters in Christ, and we're bonded to them through baptism and through the sacraments, so their stories definitely should be told. | ||
| In terms of why, I mean, I think there's probably lots of reasons. | ||
| Some of it is fear and cowardice on the part of various Christian leaders, and also just distracted by a lot of other contemporary issues that certainly the Scriptures don't talk very much about, whether we're talking racial or sexual identity | ||
| Politics that unfortunately has taken up a lot more Bandwidth from a lot of these churches, which it's very sad because you read the New Testament It is a story of a persecuted church It always has been These are so and it's our story as well It's a story for American Christians who are suffering increasing forms of persecution in various legal and cultural ways Casey social media how they follow you and how they order the book | ||
| Well, I confess I'm a little bit of a troglodyte in that respect. | ||
| I'm not on social media, but I do have a website, kcchalk.com. | ||
| The book, The Persecuted, is available from Sophia Institute Press, sophiainstitute.com. | ||
| It's also available on Amazon. | ||
| I also welcome folks to write an Amazon review so that we can get more attention to these amazing Christians who are living their faith in radical ways every day in the Muslim world. | ||
| Casey, thanks for doing it. | ||
| We'll make sure the War Room Posse piles in and writes reviews and make sure they get to the site, and if so, inclined, buy the book. | ||
| Casey, thank you very much. | ||
| Looking forward to having you back on. | ||
