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.
anthony fauci
Because if you don't, then the worst happens.
unidentified
War Room.
Pandemic.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Banham.
steve bannon
Okay, we've got a lot to get to.
Let's get to it.
Dave Walsh is an energy expert, consultant, ran, I think, Mitsubishi, probably one of the most important companies in the country as far as energy goes.
We got the world now.
It's on fire, Dave.
And I see the situation down in Texas, but I also see what's happening in Sri Lanka.
I think Sri Lanka now they've run out of gasoline.
The Sri Lanka situation, people, you have to stay.
I know it's, you know, it's old Ceylon.
It's off the coast of India.
It's half a world away from you.
But what is happening there is the type of thing that could spread throughout the less developed world.
And then who knows what happens next?
And there's something that's got to be very seriously, particularly with our great ally, India, right next to it, just with a very short, straight dividing it.
Dave Walsh, the energy situation here is getting terrible gas.
I think it's oil is 115 bucks a barrel.
You've got the situation in Texas.
Tell us what's going on.
dave walsh
We talked about India last week.
Two countries that they do bless with exportation of wheat to over the past in the couple of percent that they export are Sri Lanka and Bangladesh.
and we go back to our chart of three point two billion people in the world consuming electricity at a u s level in about nineteen twenty five that those those countries in those people are are decimated by far the worst in these kinds of times for example the uh...
a study has been done that uh... for every one percent price uplift in the price of food sixteen more people sixteen million more people globally go on the uh... food insecure list if you will or begin starving uh... and and right now the administration in response to this is talking about the adding soybeans to the list of things to produce uh... lower cost such as ethanol with corn which we sacrifice about seven hundred million people in the world could be fed
based on the corn that we divert to ethanol production so that ten percent of our gasoline supply Can be green or ethanol based.
So the policies that we're looking at just just make no sense.
steve bannon
Talk to me real quickly about this.
What's happening in Texas?
They're taking actually generators off the grid in the Texas.
How does it down is down there may just kicks into the June, July, August.
We have an energy problem in Texas.
dave walsh
Yeah, there's a significant one.
If you look at the Texas model, unfortunately because of the lack of a capacity payment structure in ERCOT, which is the Texas grid, And that's a structure that allows some incentive for building a base load, continuous duty power plants like gas ones, coal plants, nuclear plants.
No incentive to do that in Texas.
The market shifted heavily to wind.
Texas is 27% dependent on wind resources for its basic electrical energy, which leads to tremendous instability in its grid.
Texas reserve margins are only 8 to 9%.
Nationally reserved margins are 27%.
That's the amount of electricity capacity, generating capacity, that states have to exceed their demand.
So in the worst peak times, mid-summer and or mid-winter, placed like down here in the southeast, winter's a big peak, there's enough generating capacity to easily sustain the worst peak times of the year.
Texas has one-third of the reserve margin of the rest of the states, minus California, in the country, which leads to their heavy dependence on wind power, leads to shortages and brownouts in periods of times when it becomes excessively warm in the summer.
But that's because of a policy they pursued on not inducing spending on conventional base load electrical power generating facilities.
California is in a far worse position with that.
That's why, internationally, look, and around the country, California, Texas, Australia, plagued with brownouts because of excessive dependence on intermittent, non-reliable solar and wind resources to the extent of 15, 18 percent.
Texas, 27 percent or more of their power portfolio.
That's not a sustainable mix of energy resources.
steve bannon
Talk to us about diesel.
Has there been any ease at all in this crisis?
I can tell you on the East Coast with the truckers, people are starting to get very, very worried, if not slightly panicked about what's happening.
dave walsh
No, we're still on about a four-day supply in the pipeline of diesel fuel compared to historically 17-18 days of supply pipeline.
Again, 50 million barrels generally in inventory nationally.
We're down to about 12 million barrels at this point.
That hasn't relaxed.
Prices of oil, Steve, well depicted yesterday, continue to rise.
We're in the Dave, how do people follow you on social media now that the audience is saying, hey, we need to see and hear more from Dave Walsh and all the updates on energy?
Dave Walsh, thank you very much for coming on.
steve bannon
I appreciate it.
The situation around the world is scary.
You see what's happening in Sri Lanka.
Remember, the houses they burned were the war heroes that got put down.
It was the Tamil Tigers.
That a civil war there for decades and the guys actually won the war became national heroes of the ones that were running the government when all this happened.
I want to bring now Alfie Oaks, Seed to Table CEO.
Alfie, we just had these reports from Target, but particularly Walmart and about from the CEO about the food.
You know, they said, oh, one of the things we're doing, we're not selling gallons of milk anymore, we're selling half gallons, because people can't afford it.
And the CEO said, hey, the price per basket, one of the ways they analyze it, it's gone up dramatically, but the items have decreased.
What is going on with food throughout the country, and where do you see this inflation going with the nation's food?
alfie oaks
Well, you know, the most disgraceful thing that I hear right now, coming from the left, is that this You know, the reason for this food shortage is somehow global warming, or they're blaming it on Putin, or, you know, there's always a blame game.
This is very intentional.
They call it a perfect storm, but it's a perfect storm that's been created, that's been specifically created, and I believe by an arm of the one world order.
You know, when you see the things that are going on, such as the cattle, Farmers are not getting more money for their beef right now, but we're seeing beef prices going up 47%.
The chicken farmers are not getting more money for their chickens, but chicken is up 80%.
Eggs are up 120%.
The egg farmers, same thing.
We're watching kind of a takeover of, if you look at all these national brands, national companies, they are predominantly controlled by You know, Vanguard, BlackRock, State Street, when you see who's controlling the board there, it's very dangerous.
And this is one thing that, you know, I don't think it's just a coincidence.
And I don't think that the food inflation has even begun to reach the levels that we're going to see here.
A lot of these companies are on contract with Walmart right now, and they've been seeing all these input rises on cost of Of their packaging and fuel and shipping.
steve bannon
Hang on a second, slow down.
So, the guy's not making any more money and he's not seeing the increase to him.
Is that because his input cost of whether it's fertilizer or feedstock or whatever it is, transportation, the logistics, that's going up?
Or are you claiming because Larry Fink at BlackRock and Steve Schwartzman, you got Schwartzman, you got Dalio, you got Vanguard.
Because they own bigger control positions in these companies and can vote proxies for pension funds of the state.
They're putting guys on the board.
Is it their ESG policies?
Is it the ESG policies that are affecting it?
Or the input costs because of Biden's mismanagement of the economy?
Or is it both?
I mean, I don't understand how BlackRock is directly tied to the higher input cost.
Alfie Oaks.
alfie oaks
Well, somebody's making the money when the American consumer is paying that much more.
I mean, I built the store Seed to Table.
You know, we came against this insanity of the lockdowns from day one.
We made a lot of national attention.
We have 80,000 square foot store.
I try to not have any of the Of the national brands in there for the reasons really because I think most of his garbage is stuff I wouldn't put in my body, but but there's there's something going on when they're charging this much more I mean I believe that you know these these like Tyson that processes so much of the beef They're making more money than ever you can look at their you can look at their earnings look at their P&L's They're making more money than ever the farms are making it and and the big problem is is
Most of these companies are on contract by quarter four.
You know, these companies that have been selling this product to Walmart, not only are they going to go and hedge for the losses that they've just incurred over these last few months, but they're going to be hedging again.
So you're going to see price increases in quarter four this year and going into Uh, 2023, like we've never seen before.
and I don't think they're ready for it.
steve bannon
Don't bury the lead.
Okay, I want to go back this.
You're saying as bad as the food inflation, because I'm telling you, Target's down 25% today.
It's wiped out a quarter of its market cap.
You know, I think we're down 15%.
Walmart.
And Walmart's applying a lot of this to the food, because Walmart's become such a big grocer.
Are you seeing it right now, as you see it, because they've got these contracts, and these guys are going to get wiped unless they're hedged.
You think in the third quarter, in the fourth quarter this year, you're going to see even more explosive food inflation at the stores than we're seeing now?
alfie oaks
Absolutely.
I'm going out to the food shows, buying them.
I'm seeing what we're going to have to pay for the product that we're trying to get for quarter four for my stores.
It's as much as I'm selling it for right now.
We're gonna see massive food input cost increases from where we're at right now.
If people are alarmed right now, I can tell you that it's only the beginning.
And we gotta get this straightened up.
steve bannon
Alfie, how do people follow you?
Are you on social media?
Do you have a website?
You can go to foodattable.com.
alfie oaks
Yeah, I have a new website called alfieforamerica.com.
Alfieforamerica.com.
unidentified
A-L-F-I-E for America dot com.
steve bannon
Alfie for America, are y'all on social media besides the website?
alfie oaks
Yeah, we're just about on every social media platform that hasn't kicked me off.
steve bannon
I'm so shocked about that.
No, I want to have you back on either later this week or early next week to go through in detail about this third.
What we try to do is look over the hill like Wellington did, right?
To tell people, hey, look at the forces that are going to happen, prepare for this.
I really want to go through because Right now, they're going to be yammering around the White House the next couple of days saying, oh, we got this under control.
This is going to get better.
Things are going to get better.
It's not going to get better.
alfie oaks
It's just I'm one of the largest agriculture vegetable growers in the state of Florida, and I'd love to go into detail about that.
But we're cutting back on our farming this year because of the input costs.
And that's a whole other subject that would take a while.
But I'd love to go in further detail with you that later on.
steve bannon
Yeah.
Alfie for America, and do you have a handle on social media that people can, we'll put it up, but do you have a handle like on Getter, or what's your Twitter handle?
alfie oaks
It's Alfie for America, and Alfie Oaks, my personal Alfie Oaks on Facebook if I'm not kicked off right now, and Alfie for America on Facebook as well.
steve bannon
You've been on The War Room, so I'm sure you're going to get kicked off.
Alfie, we look forward to having you.
You and Walsh are two go-to guys now in food and energy.
And by the way, they're intricately linked.
The fertilizer guy.
Alfie's going to come back and tell you, hey, the input cost, part of it's driven by a big part of it's by energy.
Alfie, thank you so much.
Appreciate it.
alfie oaks
Thank you for having me.
steve bannon
I tell you what, we're going to take, I've got a very special guest we'll bring up in a second, but I got announced we're going to have Liz Harrington, President Trump's head of communications, strategic communications.
Liz is going to join us.
And remember, Liz was the former editor, senior editor-in-chief here at the War Room.
For about, I don't know, about a year, it seemed like, Liz, after the 2020.
She came in right after because she was hardcore.
Got to get to the bottom of 3 November.
So she came over here for about, I think, almost a year before she stepped over and took over President Trump's work with President Trump and try to sort out everything that he's working on.
She's going to join us to give us an update on President Trump, the victories they had last night, any insight to what's going on in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
We'll get all that.
Then we're going to talk about something because this housing situation, It's very unique where these prices are going up and mortgages are exploding, and that's because of the situation with the dollar.
You've got these institutional investors.
More than ever, you've got to be looking at that house of yours and understand that may be the thing that saves you in a financial storm that is coming to the United States, and you've got to totally, completely protect it.
We're going to have an expert on here to tell you why.
We're going to take a short commercial break.
Liz Harrington.
From President Trump's right hand is going to be with us.
I think we're going to try to get Andrew Giuliani and we're going to talk to you about protecting the one asset that you may need more than ever, the American home.

She rose in the world after us.
She's President Trump's right hand, Strategic Communications.
You see her all the time in all the media.
Really honored to have you on today, given yesterday.
Walk us through your assessment, President Trump's assessment, of what happened yesterday, particularly in places like North Carolina, in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, ma'am.
liz harrington
Hey Steve, thanks for having me.
It really is incredible.
82 and 2 by our last count in really competitive primaries, which by the way are all MAGA on MAGA, which really says it all.
I mean, President Trump, this is unheard of in American politics.
The power of President Trump in our movement to have basically all the candidates trying to be more ultramaga than the next, and he putting all these candidates over the top. It's really amazing. And so much so that the fake news media tried to make something out of Ted Budd.
Ted Budd won by over 20 points, and by the way, embraced the November 3rd movement as you do on this show every single day.
And look at Doug Mastriano, by the way.
President Trump comes in and endorses him.
Then he gets almost 45% in a very crowded field.
All because of the election integrity issue, and then Oz coming in for the win, which we believe he'll have.
We don't want to see any shenanigans with the mail-in ballots, but this is unheard of.
The power of President Trump's endorsement, we've never seen anything like it, and it's all because he's a man of the people, and he's promoting the MAGA agenda, and the MAGA base turns out.
steve bannon
It's also not just the endorsements, it's the whole center of gravity.
Right. You have very I mean we even have a stat. I mean it was 75 percent of the vote in Ohio. It's over 80 percent or in North Carolina. It's 90 percent. It's 80 percent in Pennsylvania. I mean it's just what he's done to shift the Overton window but to set to reestablish or reset a new center of gravity in American politics is quite extraordinary.
It's just, it's been, you and I have talked about it so much when you were here, but it's just, it's blown me away.
The other thing I think is very important is that, and I think the commentators obviously on MSNBC, they know what they're doing, but some of the conservative commentators Liz, they don't understand how central to everything we're fighting for is 3 November.
You know, Donald Trump's not fighting this for himself.
He's fighting this.
We cannot let that go.
And Doug Mastriano ran an entire campaign.
I mean, what he would do is just go around and do these voter integrity conferences constantly throughout.
You saw he had no money.
President Trump, by the way, the way I do the math, it was a 15 point pop.
Just on Saturday alone.
You know, he came in with 42, 44%.
And he was at 28.
I mean, Doug did a great job himself.
But President Trump, that's called turbocharge against a very competitive field.
Look, Oz, that's incredibly competitive with Dave McCormack, with his resources, with Kathy Barnett catching traction at the end.
And you had Ambassador Sands, you had Barter, she had good candidates.
So the degree of candidates, but still gets back to 3 November, because people are just not going to let this go.
Liz Harrington.
liz harrington
And it's so hilarious to me, Steve.
Everything they're saying about Mastriano is, ooh, the Democrats are just so excited to face Mastriano in the general election.
Kind of reminds me of those emails the Clinton campaign was sending, oh, just salivating over Donald J. Trump.
Getting the nomination in 2015 and then in 2016 during that campaign.
It's hilarious to me.
They are totally bluffing or they're just so out of touch.
They don't know what's going to hit them.
I mean, this shows you in state after state, in race after race, we're not moving on.
We are not going to stop until we get to the bottom of it, till the whole truth I mean, Doug Mastrano, he's the guy that held the hearing in Gettysburg, drawing a line in the sand and saying, no, our votes, legal votes, count.
Illegal ones, don't.
And from that day forward, the MAGA faithful has remembered him.
It's an issue he ran on, our central freedoms.
I mean, he would get thousands of people on a Tuesday night because they're talking about our votes.
And it's hilarious to me also, they're painting him as so extreme.
They're saying, oh, he embraces Trump's election denial.
This is so extreme.
You know what's extreme?
Abolishing the U.S.
border.
Abolishing our energy and gas production.
You know what's extreme?
Baby formula shortages in the United States.
That's pretty extreme.
I mean, lawlessness, crime, not letting these criminals out on the streets.
That's extreme.
And people are waking up to it.
Many people already were.
But the central issue, how we fix all those crazy, radical policies of these Maniacs trying to destroy our country is if we have a free and fair election.
That's the only way we're going to fix it.
That's why people that do embrace the truth about November 3rd and the rigged and stolen election, they're the only ones that are going to be successful.
steve bannon
How did you get to the 82 and 2?
Where did the 2 come from?
I know we've got Herbster with all the issues out there.
And by the way, Herbster would've lost.
unidentified
We've got Herbster in Idaho.
steve bannon
Oh, that's right.
The Idaho last night.
liz harrington
Which, you know, is incumbent, kind of difficult to do.
steve bannon
And that governor's not a great guy.
Talk to us about, we call this the seven days of May.
You've got today, but you've got to the next week.
You've seen the gathering.
You've got Christie, you've got Ducey, you've got Ricketts.
They're all working with the Bushes.
And we just had, we had, we had the Attorney General in from Texas.
Right.
Ken Paxton came on.
He's beaten the Bushes by 40 points down there in Texas because of a Trump endorsement.
You got them all coming together.
Of course, Mike Pence, the cause of all this madness and this destruction of our great country, you see economically on the border everywhere.
Give us your assessment right now.
This is this is this is a big one.
Purdue versus Kemp and Kemp is at the railhead of all the corruption and incompetence down in Georgia.
What's your sense in the next seven days?
liz harrington
I guess this is the RINO's last stand, right?
unidentified
They're bringing in all the RINO reinforcements.
liz harrington
I mean, honestly, it's kind of comical because of Kemp.
Oh, I thought he was up by 20 points, right?
With all these fake polls.
They're trying to depress the Trump base.
It's not going to work.
It's the exact same tactic that they tried to deploy on President Trump.
We all remember those phony Wisconsin polls that were just Totally illegitimate.
But if, oh, if he's, if Kemp is up 20 points, why is he desperate to bring in any rhino he can find?
I mean, it's really pathetic.
We're bringing in some great MAGA amazing patriots coming in for this bus tour for David Perdue that's extended a week thanks to the great John Fredericks.
But we got Sarah Palin coming in, I believe this Friday.
We've got, we've had Carrie Lake there.
We've had all these great warriors.
Uh, who know how important this is.
This is very important.
President Trump is putting his endorsements on the line because, you know, at the end of the day, he doesn't care about his record personally.
He cares about doing the right thing and draining the swamp.
I mean, you can't get more corrupt.
Then Brian Kemp, Brad Raffensperger, and Chris Carr, the Attorney General.
We've got John Gordon, who's a great candidate.
We've got Jody Heiss.
Of course, we've got David Perdue.
We've got so many great candidates that I think the Democrats are actually really worried about, and all we have to do Is get Kemp under 50.
We get Kemp under 50.
It's one-on-one.
David Perdue is going to win this race.
And President Trump will be back in Georgia doing a huge rally.
I mean, this is much closer than they think.
The rhinos are very scared.
And I say bring it on.
Keep bringing in Pence.
unidentified
Keep bringing in Chris Christie, George W. Bush.
liz harrington
I mean, that just cements where they are.
They are of a bygone era of the old guard GOP that the voters can't stand and have let the country down and really led us to ruin.
When you look at the damage of George W. Bush, the damage of Brian Kemp, giving away our Senate, giving away our presidency, And the people have had it with these.
I think it's a very clarifying moment that they're bringing in all these rhinos and we've got the MAGA base and President Trump's great candidates all behind David Perdue.
steve bannon
I gotta tell you, we never said it was going to be easy, and you saw it.
You were at the RNC for a while.
It's the controlled opposition.
We win elections and we lose the country, but they're not going to give it up.
This is one of the reasons they hate Trump.
I keep telling people, as much as the Democrats hate him, the Republican establishment may hate him even more because it's their apparatuses taking over and turning back to the people.
Liz, how do people get to you on social media?
liz harrington
So Truth Social just launched the web application which I'm so excited about.
Everyone can go on and sign up now and follow me there at RealLizUSA.
I'm not going to be tweeting hardly ever anymore.
It's all about truth.
steve bannon
President Trump's 100% correct.
That's not even a company.
unidentified
Who, by the way, is just blasting off the best truths lately.
liz harrington
You've got to see them.
They're amazing.
steve bannon
He's back.
He's the Hemingway.
unidentified
He's the Hemingway of truth socialism.
steve bannon
Liz, we miss you, but you're doing the Lord's work over there, so congratulations and keep fighting, ma'am.
liz harrington
Thanks so much, sir.
steve bannon
Thank you.
The great Liz Harrington.
Get some great fighters over there now.
Okay, short break.
James Finch is going to talk to you about how in a firestorm of this economy, because like Cortez says, we would be lucky to have the stagflation of the late 70s earlier.
Lucky.
And there's folks in this audience who remember how bad that was.
Gotta protect your house.
That's your one big asset.
Okay, short break.
Back, and I think we're gonna have Doug, trying to get Doug Mastrano next.

Also, the number for the United States Senate is 202-224-3121.
We already got 11 no votes.
Remember, we started with zero.
But we need to fire people up today and say, hey, when Walmart reports that they're selling more half gallons of milk than gallons, That means the children of America are going without, and we don't have $40 billion to underwrite the oligarchs, the third most corrupt nation on earth.
Let the Europeans, let all those rich folks in Switzerland do it.
Let all those rich folks in Norway do it.
Let all those rich folks in Sweden do it.
Let all those rich folks in Italy and France and Germany, that's their deal.
Not our deal.
No $40 billion.
Call them now and give them, as Harry Truman would say, give them hell.
unidentified
Okay?
steve bannon
I want to bring in the star of the night last night.
You heard it from Liz Harrington, the President's right hand, just told us about Doug Mastriano.
Colonel Mastriano, I got to tell you, I think people on this show that have, you know, started with you right after the 3rd of November and then all the participants, we live-streamed your conference on 25 November that really kicked off the 3 November movement to get to the bottom of it.
Last night, my phone was blown up all night.
People could not be more proud.
And I got to tell you, your victory speech was absolutely amazing.
You touched so many important points from the spiritual to God to what has to happen.
So, sir, tell us what it was like and tell us where we're going.
doug mastriano
Thank you, Steve.
And thanks for helping to introduce me to, you know, Pennsylvania and America as well.
So what you do here really does have consequences and it really does make a difference.
So, we had the rally last night.
My wife and I got there around 8 p.m.
and I figured it'd be, you know, some wait before there's an announcement.
But, you know, after 9 o'clock, 9.15 or so, people are like, hey, they're calling it already.
I'm like, what?
And then I get a call from, Lou Barletta calls me up and congratulates me.
And I'm like, wow, this is quite early.
We did wait until like 9.45.
I wanted to make sure that we were truly good to go.
So, Steve, there was a lot of, I don't know, This was discussed much, but there's a lot of machinations within the state party here.
The old establishment, Rhino Group, trying to figure a way to knock me out because I'd always been ahead in the most of the polls this year.
And so they, some of the candidates decided to get out and to get behind Lou and Lou Barletta.
And it just didn't work.
And dang it.
It really, it really did expose that there is a, an establishment elite that wants to call the shots in Pennsylvania.
But despite all that, what they were saying was they're promoting the fact that, hey, there's nine people on the ballot, and Mastriano could win this with only 28% of the vote.
And that's not a mandate.
But not only did we smoke that, but we got 44% of the vote.
I mean, it's incredible.
So out of nine, this is bigger than previous Republicans that have run and been successful two-term Republican, like Dick Thornburg in 1978, kind of a similar race.
He only came out with 33% of the vote.
And so we do have a mandate.
Now it's time for the party.
It was a tough race.
I kept it clean, though.
I didn't go dirty on anybody.
But now it's time to come together, because our common goal now is Mr. Shapiro and taking Pennsylvania back.
steve bannon
Well, look, it's two things.
You've got to get the establishment, and hopefully we'll work on that and make sure the establishment comes together.
I understand.
But talk to me about it, because I know you've got to bounce, but just walk through two or three of the things that you're most focused on.
Because Josh Shapiro, He's played up by MSNBC as the most important candidate in the nation, but he's really never been tested.
And I can tell you one thing about Colonel Doug Mastriano.
He's going to test you.
He's going to bring the test.
So talk to us about where does this go from here?
Because this is the first day and this will be the premiere Governor's race in the nation.
This is going to be a national campaign because, hey, Shapiro's up there every night on MSNBC getting Democrats and progressives from around the country and maybe the world, right, to throw money in.
doug mastriano
Well, you know, you had me on.
I said we have a grassroots and that's identified in that I won 55 of the 67 counties, including for the Republicans, Philadelphia County, by the way.
I mean, it's amazing.
And so now the next step is to expand this base.
And so we have consolidated our gains with Republicans and then expand out to the independents and the moderate Democrats.
And actually, my last week campaigning, I actually transitioned to a general election mode out of the primary mode.
I finished with my bus tour.
We stopped in two different Democrat strongholds to do rallies.
One was Pittsburgh.
And one was Erie, downtown Erie, which traditionally Democrat.
I mean, most of the folks believe, as we do, though, you know, hard work and American values, what the Democrats call extreme far right.
And we had 500 people in Erie show up at my event.
I mean, it was just kind of a quick event.
And so expand on that base here.
Now focus on three major issues here.
Energy.
I want to make Pennsylvania number one in energy production in the nation.
And the so what for Pennsylvania is going to drive prices down domestically, not only Pennsylvania, but around the nation here, get us off of Russian energy as best we can influence that and then bring the money here rather than sending it over to Moscow.
So energy is going to be one of the one issues.
Number two, of course, election integrity.
We absolutely have to get our arms around that.
I mean, it's incredible.
And then number three, it's a various group of freedoms defending parental rights.
As we saw in Virginia, what happened in Loudoun County, we're headed in that direction in Pennsylvania.
And so, the people are really concerned about their basic freedoms, you know, a jab for a job kind of thing, being labeled a domestic terrorist if they go to a school board meeting to speak their mind.
I mean, this stuff is insane.
Biological males competing in female sports, so it's just restoring common sense and order.
steve bannon
Last night they made a huge deal when you had this magnificent open to your victory speech about God, and they said, oh, this guy's a Christian theocrat.
Talk to us, this audience, about what God means in the life of Doug Mastriano.
doug mastriano
Yeah, I accepted the Lord as a teenager and wasn't in alignment with my parents' beliefs or what have you, so it was a choice I made on my own.
There's nothing more important to me than my relationship with Jesus Christ.
I condemn the media and I call them out for being bigots and intolerant of my faith or any other person's faith.
I told them last night that my campaign has no room for intolerance and bigotry.
And if media attacks my faith or the faith of anyone else there, they will not have any access to me.
And that starts with the Washington Post.
It's the kind of stuff they say, you know, about me.
I'm just an average American, Steve.
I'm not far right anything.
This is just a talking point.
They want to try to label me and marginalize me as that.
I had a top secret special department information access for 30 years.
You know what that is, TSSCI.
I read out to many programs, had seven or eight background investigations.
If there was a hint of any radicalism in me or far far rightness in me, I'd never have that kind of access to the nation's most sensitive and destructive secrets.
And so I'm just going to call them out.
I'm not going to stand aside and let them create a narrative about me.
If far right means standing on the Constitution and defending people's freedoms and defending the right to small businesses, stay open, defending the elderly from having sick dropped into their homes vis-a-vis Dr. Levine with science denying policies.
If that's far right, then bring it on.
If far right's being That kids should not have masks taped to their faces or that you lose your job because you don't want to get a jab that's for emergency use only.
OK, whatever.
And I think we're going to because Josh Shapiro and the National Democrat Party has gone so extreme that they left so many people behind that they're going to be shocked in November in Pennsylvania.
steve bannon
Colonel Mastrana, how do people find out more about you and how they find out more about this campaign?
This great campaign in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania against Josh Shapiro will be the heavyweight title fight of this year.
How will they do it?
doug mastriano
It's going to be amazing.
go to Doug for gov.com, Doug number four, gov.com. You know, Steve, in my delineation there, I use history, I obviously I'm a doctor of history. And I discussed William Penn and how he was likewise persecuted and mocked for his faith that he ended up in jail three times in England because of his faith.
And he was asked to tone it down and back off that he get early release by King Charles the second he said, No, I'd rather die before I do that. And it's ironic that in the very state that was created by a man who wanted no one to suffer for personal deep-held beliefs, whether they have religion or not, it's irregardless.
He wants you to be able to come here and live your life as you see fit and not be subject to mocking or imprisonment by tyrants, whether in the media or by a governor.
And so I'm calling him out.
We're going to restore freedom in Pennsylvania.
At my rallies, we have many, many people show up who were Democrats, who have very left-leaning ideals.
But yet they support me and I'll ask them, you know, how do you reconcile?
Because, you know, I am a conservative.
And they say, you know, Doug, I get it, but you stand for my freedom.
You're not going to force me to get a vaccine or a jab to keep my job.
You're going to you're going to honor my respect and my views and then defend my own beliefs, whatever they are.
Unlike, you know, my own side, the Democrats side, they say, that are trying to impose their beliefs on my kids and tell me that, you know, my body is not my choice anymore.
steve bannon
Colonel Mastroianni, honored to have you on here, a fight on.
This is going to be a classic.
So thank you very much for taking time away to join us today.
doug mastriano
Thank you, sir.
God bless you.
steve bannon
Colonel Doug Mastriano.
It's going to be a heavyweight title fight.
Shapiro vs. Mastriano in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
A blowout win last night for MAGA and for this audience and for all the great patriots up there in Pennsylvania.
Let's go, we got Andrew Giuliani.
Andrew, what lessons do you take?
You're running, boy, if we had Republican governors in Pennsylvania and New York, the country would be quite different.
First of all, it's the energy, it's the Saudi Arabia energy if you just get a couple of men in there.
Or women that could turn things around real quickly.
Walk us through, what lessons do you take from Mastriano's win last night, sir?
unidentified
Well, first off, congratulations Doug Mastriano.
Of all the candidates that I've been pushing for, there's none that gives me more hope that we're on the right track than Doug.
Because I remember right in the beginning of November when Doug got into the fray on this and started leading the fray.
And I have to tell you, any Republican that tells you we can't think about November 3, 2020, They're going to continue to lose races for us in 2022, 2024.
Doug Mastriano took that narrative head on, and that's what I'm doing on here in New York.
But you mentioned energy.
It's a perfect example.
You think about the Marseilles Fault that's right on the border of the southern tier of New York and northern Pennsylvania.
That alone, if we were able to tap into that, these gas prices, which, by the way, I filled up my tank yesterday, Steve, at $4.89 a gallon.
They'd be a lot more manageable for New Yorkers and for Pennsylvanians and for all Americans.
It's really untenable.
And with a combination of a Mastriano and a Giuliani, you're going to get an America that's going to make sure we're America first.
And we'll probably eat pretty well with a Mastriano and a Giuliani too.
steve bannon
No, because you'll unlock the Saudi Arabia of natural gas.
Real quickly, they said Mastroianni's too MAGA to win.
He just blew him out.
They say the same thing about Giuliani.
You're Rudy's son, you're too MAGA.
What do you have to say for that?
You're too MAGA for New York, sir.
What do you say to that?
unidentified
They said it about Trump.
I mean, I think there's no better way to say it.
They said it about Trump.
Look, the truth is we're not too MAGA at all.
I think it's exactly what New York needs right now.
It's exactly what Pennsylvania needs with Doug.
Look at all of the polling.
And actually, just like Doug said, we end up doing better amongst independents and Democrats.
That's not because we end up looking the other way on November 3rd, 2020.
We know exactly what happened.
We know that Trump won.
He was cheated out of the thing.
But we're genuine, and we actually come up with real solutions on crime, on energy, on actual parents' choice in education, and on actual independence from actually having to take this jab.
I'm the only candidate that chose not to get vaccinated.
That should be everybody's choice.
As you know, in New York, Steve, we have so many workers that got fired because they chose not to get the jab.
That's unacceptable, and those mandates end on day one of a Giuliani administration.
And those people get their job back with Backpack.
steve bannon
Andrew, how do people find out more about the campaign of Andrew Giuliani in the state of New York?
unidentified
Go to SaveNY.org.
That's SaveNY.org.
And we could use any help.
Volunteer.
Donate.
Whatever you can do.
We're going to get this over the finish line on June 28th and then beat Kathy Ockel on November 8th.
steve bannon
Andrew Giuliani, honored to have you on here.
I think it's, think about Giuliani in New York and Doug Mastroianni in Pennsylvania.
Would the country be in a different direction?
Would the untapped energy resources, natural gas, would the Saudi Arabia of natural gas in New York State, in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, in Eastern Ohio, and in West Virginia, think that'd make a change in those states?
Stay tuned.
Short commercial break.
General Dan Bishop and also James Finch.

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.
steve bannon
Okay, ladies and gentlemen, Lindell just told me we've got a new sale up on MyPillow.com.
Go there.
We've got the slippers normally, I think $139.98, now $49.98.
This is a one-time good deal, not going to last forever.
Go to MyPillow.com.
Massive slipper sales.
Go check it out.
I have more to say about that this evening.
One thing we've been talking about is the firestorm that's coming.
Look, we make, especially looking over the other side of the hill, I'm telling you right now, you've got to get all over your house because as you see what the economy is going to go, The house is going to be probably your key asset.
I'll ask James Finch, a cybersecurity expert, former assistant director of the FBI, who's now an advisor to Home Title Lock.
James, what are people to do?
Because right now, if somebody comes in and starts messing with your title and takes out a loan, you're finished.
Because you've got to protect that home.
That equity in your home could be all you have to weather this storm, sir.
unidentified
That is correct, Steve.
And most people don't realize The ownership titles to their homes, they're online now and they're quite easy to find.
People just, the bad guy just downloads your home title with the signature on it, forges that signature on a quick claim deed, and then that you can get free online stating they now own your home.
Then they refile that quick claim deed with the county recorder's office and proceed to take out loans against your home.
steve bannon
I mean, people are stunned by this.
And then the bank, when the bank comes, it's your problem, not their problem.
This is what you've got to protect yourself for.
Right now, with this coming firestorm we've got, you've got to make sure that it's free, that it's your baby, and that nobody else has tapped into it.
And that can happen.
So how do people check it out?
Because I want everybody on this ASAP, James.
How do people do this?
unidentified
People can check it out by going to HomeTitleLock.com.
There you can find all the information about This product and how to protect your home title from cyber thieves who go online and access your home title and make it their own.
And it will be it will be long after long after that before you're aware that you've been the victim of home title fraud.
So go to HomeTitleLock.com where you can read all about Okay, we've talked about this thing, and your home is your asset.
steve bannon
These guys now, because it's all online, can come and do this quick deed.
They can go to the bank, get a loan against your house, take the money.
And you're stuck with it.
And the best case is you're going to have to pay lawyers to unwind this.
The worst case is that you're alone.
This is happening all the time.
It's the number one, I think, cyber crime now.
It's bigger than credit card crime, James.
When I first met you guys, you scared me to death, and thank God I used your guys' services, because I was nervous, because I had never checked it, never even thought about it.
Once again, James, I want everybody out there today, just go do it and check it out, where they go.
unidentified
They go to HomeTitleLock.com and Home Title Lock puts a virtual perimeter around your home's online title.
And in the instant it detects any suspicious activity, it alerts you.
And if it's a cyber criminal trying to tamper with your home title, Home Title Lock helps you shut it down.
steve bannon
James, thank you so much.
I appreciate you guys.
I appreciate the home tidal lock.
I want... Captain Ben is going to put it on all our different platforms.
This is one I want everybody to get on this today.
You can't mess around now.
You got to get prepared.
You got to... Thank you, brother.
You got to get prepared for what's happening.
unidentified
Okay?
steve bannon
Get prepared.
Action, action, action.
Let's bring in General... We got other great news.
General Rod Bishop.
General, we got the Air Force Academy cadets.
Give us an update, brother.
Everybody is all worked up on this when you came on the other day.
unidentified
You bet.
And thanks, Steve, so much to you and the War Room for helping us spread the word because I think the Publish the Public Pressure Campaign actually worked.
At least what I've been calling it is a small step towards victory, but certainly a giant leap for these cadets who are going to get to walk across the stage and feel the sense of pride and throw their hats up in the air.
But I predict the next day, they're probably going to be a little depressed because they won't be commissioned.
They're going to have to figure out how to pay back $165,000.
So all the people that you helped drive towards STARS with two Rs, stars.us the other day, that gave us $11,000.
I think it shows the law firms that we're dealing with that we're serious about this and we have to take this on because it's not just, you know, recouping the $165,000 or maybe getting these patriotic Americans commissioned.
It's the hundreds, maybe thousands across the rest of the services that are still in limbo.
steve bannon
Now we're going to get to the bottom.
Look, after November, it's going to be a different deal, but I just want real quickly, you're saying they're allowed to graduate, but we still haven't gotten a commission yet.
There's still the, the DOD and the services are still taking a hard stand.
They're not going to be, they're going to graduate, go to the ceremony, but they're not going to get commission.
Is that where we stand right now?
unidentified
That's exactly where we stand right now, Steve.
But again, you know, the public pressure, there's an article from the editorial board, the local paper today saying, you know, let the cadets graduate and let them serve.
I mean, think of this, Steve, you can commit an honor violation, which goes to your character and integrity and be put on probation for six months and still graduate.
But for not taking a silly, useless shot at this point in time, this is not January of 2020 or January of 2021.
You cannot be commissioned.
Where is the common sense in all of this?
steve bannon
Okay, we're gonna get all over this.
Give the website of people that gotta go.
This is another one.
We're only, we got a victory, victory begets victory, but we're not there yet.
We're getting close.
How do, General Rod Bishop, how do people get to STARS?
unidentified
STARS, S-T-A-R-R-S dot U-S, and on our contribute button there's a special litigation section.
And if for some reason the light bulb comes on for, to DOD and they're, you know, says, okay, you know, we're going to do away with this mandate.
Redefine print.
I wrote it myself.
I'm not a lawyer, but I've had it approved by two lawyers and it makes so much sense.
I mean, there are a number of other issues out there, like the boards of visitors being suspended.
Like, uh, 27 freedom of information acts that we've submitted all but one, uh, being essentially ignored.
Only one has been answered.
And some have been out for a number of years.
So there's a lot of issues.
steve bannon
We're going to sort... Look, these flag officers and field grade officers have come back off retirement to hit this every day.
We're going to have stars back on here.
Captain Bannon is a part of it.
You know, so many great Patriots I know.
We've got a bounce general.
We're going to sort this one out.
We're getting there.
Okay.
unidentified
Thank you so much for the support, Steve.
steve bannon
Thanks, sir.
Five to seven tonight, we're going to be on fire.
At first, I was going to have to be out of town at a meeting, but you know what?
There's so much going on.
I told them, I said, hey, I can't do it.
I got to be in the war room.
So guess what?
You got me for two hours a night, five o'clock.
Be back here.
