Well, the virus has now killed more than 100 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.
Which you need to prepare for and assume.
Broadly warning Americans to avoid all non-essential travel to China.
That this is going to be a real serious problem.
France, Australia, Canada, the U.S., Singapore, Cambodia, Vietnam, the list goes on.
Health officials are investigating more than 100 possible cases in the U.S.
Germany, a man has contracted the virus.
The epidemic is a demon, and we cannot let this demon hide.
Japan, where a bus driver contracted the virus.
Coronavirus has killed more than 100 people there and infected more than 4,500.
We have to prepare for the worst, always.
anthony fauci
Because if you don't, then the worst happens.

War Room.
Pandemic.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
steve bannon
Okay, Thursday, 10 November in the Year of Our Lord 2022.
Like I said, there's a lot going on here.
We're parallel processing a lot of this.
There's going to be a press conference in Maricopa County here.
Ben Berquam is on the scene.
We'll cut to that in a little while.
Caroline Wren is going to join us back here from the Cary Lake, Senior Advisor at Cary Lake.
We're also getting an update in Nevada.
We're going to go to also about Colorado and Lauren Boebert.
For those folks out there worried about Harris County, Texas, we're going to be all over that.
We are all over that and probably have an update for you guys this afternoon.
I want to go bring in Congressman Jim Banks, a naval officer from the great state of Indiana.
Congressman Banks, you ran the Republican study group.
You kind of laid out What the agendas should be.
You were in back of the really a lot of the intellectual work heavy lifting for the commitment to America.
You talked about a joint select committee that was going to be on China.
Walk us through as we looks like we're going to be now.
I don't know 223 to 212 225.
It's it's 11 to 15 seat.
Maybe even more depending on how things breaking people all over the country.
From Connecticut to Alaska to Washington to Colorado, Oregon, Nevada, Arizona, California fighting for these seats because they're all a bunch of them on knife's edge.
First off, can you give us assessment where you think we stand on that and then walk us through the framework or what the agenda is going to be both to stop the madness that's coming in the lame duck and then to go forward as we take charge in 2023, sir.
jim banks
Yeah, thank you, Steve.
Thanks for having me.
Obviously, Tuesday night was not the outcome that many of us had hoped.
It's not going to be as large of a majority, but it will be a Republican majority, and that's the bottom line.
The voters are giving us an opportunity to lead.
Steve, I happen to believe that the election outcome would have been a much larger, but voters, while they don't want Democrats, radical Democrats, in control, they're still skeptical of Republicans because The last time that Republicans had the majority, we let the voters down.
So we have an opportunity over the next two years, if we do what we say we're going to do and hold the Biden administration accountable and pass the agenda, the framework that we put forth and called our commitment to America, if we keep our commitments, then I believe that majority will grow even larger in 2024 and we'll win back the White House as well.
We have a lot of work to do in the lame duck, a big fight Overspending to make sure that the radical Democrats don't advance all of their causes that they know they won't be able to when we get the majority.
So we have to fight hard in the lame duck.
But on day one of the Republican majority, January 3rd, we have to roll up our sleeves, do what we say we're going to do, keep our commitments, advance the populist, pro-American first agenda that we promised the American people.
And I intend to be on the front lines of making sure that that happens.
steve bannon
So let's break this down for a second.
In your mind, this covenant or commitment, what did the American people entrust you with?
Even if it's an 11, 12, 15 seat majority, it's bigger than the majority that Nancy Pelosi has run this thing with.
And people have got to connect 2020 to 2022 because you picked up, what, 15 seats then.
And folks got to remember, In the Newt Gingrich revolution in 94 and the Tea Party revolution in 2010, that came off 174 seat bases.
So when you're picking up 50 seats or 60 seats, it came off lower.
We clearly had in the gun sites 30 to 50 seats that were there.
Hey, it didn't happen.
These were very close.
A lot of it broke the other way, but some broke our way, including the ones we're trying to close now.
But as you see it, what mandate do you think the American people actually gave you?
jim banks
Well, first of all, we have to secure the border.
We have to use the leverage that we have with the majority, no matter how big the size of the majority, to secure the border, immigration policies that put American workers first, foreign policy that puts America first in its interests.
We have to make America energy independent again, and the first priority, H.R.
1, of the Republican majority will be a bill to do just that, energy independence.
We have to Pass balanced budgets and address inflation by being fiscally responsible.
These are all things that we can do with a Republican majority, no matter the size, because there's broad Republican unity on our side to advance that type of America First agenda that for four years made America strong.
And for the last two years, we've seen the opposite.
So we have a mandate to do that with a Republican majority.
As you know, Steve, I'm running for the number three leadership position, the whip job, and that job becomes even much more important in a smaller majority to make sure that we're negotiating with Republicans to pass our bills, not negotiating with radical Democrats, but to get it done with the Republican majority, enforcing what they used to call the Hastert Rule, that a majority of the Republican majority would support something
Before we whip it and support it and allow it to come out of the House.
That would be a major role of Republican leadership and of the whip job specifically and that's why I feel compelled and called to step up to the plate and lead in that manner in this upcoming majority.
steve bannon
Everybody that's maybe not familiar with the nomenclature, correct me wrong, if you're familiar with House of Cards, I think House of Cards, the lead character there, started, he was the whip, correct?
I'm not trying to make any analogy to that guy, but that was the whip job in that HBO series, was it not?
jim banks
That's right, Steve.
steve bannon
Yeah, so it shows you, it's a very, very, very, for folks, this is inside baseball, it's probably one of the most important jobs in politics.
What you just laid out, right, is very coherent, the agenda.
It ties directly into your commitment to America.
It would tie into what we've talked about on the show all the time and the audience supports, the guys that went out and rang doorbells and gave money and were call centers and all that, and are there as election officials, the precinct strategy.
So you have a unity of command here.
As I look down, just an observation, Congressman Banks, I don't see that as Biden's, you know, when you say secure the border, they have a radical, not just open borders, it's an evasion of borders, no ice.
When I look at America first, they're all over the map.
They're spending money everywhere.
There's no cohesion.
You don't see any real strong commitment or any organized effort in the South China Sea or around Taiwan with the chip situation.
When you see energy, I mean, they have John Kerry.
Nancy Pelosi's heading the COP 27.
John Kerry's heading the COP 27.
And they've already agreed to discuss the framework for reparations.
Forget how radical the climate change or global warming agenda is anyway on just shutting down energy.
And this is why Europe is in such a fiasco.
But they've gone next level.
The COP 27, which as people in our audience know, is these massive meetings they have every year.
The one in Egypt right now, the number one thing is reparations from the United States of America.
And when I say reparations, I mean trillions of dollars of what they call reparations for climate damage.
And the Biden administration has John Kerry, and they've already talked about, we can be open to discussing about how this could work, right?
So if you go down everything on Biden, this is, I would just say, make an observation.
I think it's kind of unbridgeable.
Right?
It looks like unbridgeable gap there.
So how, as the whip, or how is the guy that was one of the intellectual architects of the intellectual part of this, how do you view the unbridgeable gap?
jim banks
Well, Steve, it's all about leverage.
That's what I'm talking about.
We have to make sure that we get it done with the Republican majority, not go to Joe Biden and the House Democrats and negotiate on their terms, but force them to negotiate on our terms and use the leverage of the spending bills that will pass To put bills on Joe Biden's desk and dare him to veto it.
Because you're exactly right.
These Democrats have sold out America.
And we're not being given the majority by the American people to negotiate with them.
We're giving the majority to fight back against them.
We have to be bold, we have to be tough, and we have to put bills on his desk that reflect the mandate that we have.
But there's also a large component of the majority which is holding the The Biden administration accountable, investigating them for what they've done to this country, and holding them accountable in big ways.
Secretary Mayorkas, what he's done to completely abandon the rule of law and open up the border wide open as well.
So how are we going to hold him accountable?
That has to happen on day one.
That's what the voters are choosing us to lead to do.
You'll have Rand Paul, when the Senate gets the majority, he'll have oversight of the NIH to hold Fauci and the NIH accountable for The mess that they created after COVID.
That's the type of mandate that we have.
We have to use it.
steve bannon
So the Republican Study Committee has been what's kind of the intellectual architecture of this.
And just because the media is spinning it, Joe Biden says, hey, I'm prepared to work.
I'm prepared.
You know, the American people said we got to work together in the in the two years up till now.
Can you tell our audience how much the Democrats have have reached out to you guys to work together in the House or the White House?
How much working together has it been until the votes came in starting Tuesday night?
They're trying to slow walk the now know that we have the American people who actually want Republicans will be in charge.
How much cross out working together and hearing your ideas has there been the last two years, sir?
jim banks
Yeah, Steve, not one time has Joe Biden or Nancy Pelosi reached out to me, the leader of the largest caucus in Congress to work on anything, especially on issues that solve the challenges that America faces the most with inflation and energy costs and the border, the drug crisis.
Spending.
Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden haven't done that a single time over the last couple of years.
So how can we take their word that they would want to do that over the next two years?
But that's not what Republicans are being given a majority to do.
We're giving a majority to fight back against their radical agenda, and we can't back off of that.
We can't betray the voters who gave us this historic opportunity to be in the majority by negotiating with the radicals that have put the country in the In the place that it is today.
I'm not going to let it happen.
steve bannon
Look, people that know you, everybody obviously is very high of your character and you know, you're kind of Indiana nice, Midwest nice.
If you look at House of Cards and look, it's obviously a drama.
But the one thing is the ruthlessness that they have to run things when it's about power and particularly when your country's on the line.
Look, you've served your country, you know, but our country's on the line right now.
Are you tough enough or ruthless enough?
To have this job, to make sure that America is actually defended and that you're the guy that's going to not fold and be the guy that's got to stand in the breach, sir?
jim banks
Yeah, Steve, I have a rock-solid record of putting America first the six years that I've been in Congress.
I'm proud of the tough work that we've done to hold our party accountable and keep us in the right place over the last couple of years when a lot of Republicans wanted to abandon the American first principles that has made our party bigger and stronger than ever.
Republican study committee stood in the gap and led the way.
So the American people are counting on us.
The voters are counting on us in the majority to stand strong, be tough, fight back.
That's what we have to do.
And if we do that, like I said before, we will grow what might be a very small, slim majority.
We will grow that majority even bigger and stronger.
In the 2024 election, if we keep our word.
steve bannon
You're absolutely correct.
The difference between the 15 or 20 we picked up or the 10 to 20 we picked up and the other 30 is a knife's edge.
And people are just sitting there going, hey, convince me, show me.
Congressman Banks, how do people find out more about you?
Where do they go?
How do they find out more about you?
And what's your social media?
They can follow you.
jim banks
Yeah, it's Congressman Jim Banks or Rep Jim Banks on all the platforms, Twitter.
Facebook, through social, you can find us there.
Come and follow us, give us feedback.
Appreciate it very much.
steve bannon
You're too modest.
You're a pretty tough guy.
I've had the opportunity and the pleasure of knowing you for a couple of years.
You've had our back on many tough fights in the Trump White House.
Congressman Banks, thank you very much.
Honored to have you on here.
jim banks
Thank you, Steve.
steve bannon
Jim Banks, that's a tough job, being the whip.
A very tough job.
Look, we've got a lot of grinding to do.
And that's what made this show kind of famous was the audience are grinders.
You're not here to be entertained.
You're here to work, and that work is saving your country.
Okay, we're gonna go back to Arizona.
There's a press conference out there.
We're gonna go back to... By the way, we're focused a lot on Arizona because Arizona is a key pivot of what's going on.
Remember, this stuff started in Arizona.
We're gonna end it in Arizona.
We have not forgotten about the rest.
We're all over these other... How do I say it?
Situations.
Okay.
Nevada, Arizona, Washington.
unidentified
We'll be talking about Texas later.
steve bannon
Short commercial break.
Gonna go back to where Caroline ran.
I got Natalie Winters, Ben Burkham, all of it.
Short commercial break.
unidentified
back in a moment.
War Room.
Pandemic.
With Stephen K. Banham.
The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide.
War Room.
Pandemic.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Banham.
steve bannon
Okay, we got news here.
Montana 1, we've been following very closely.
Montana 1, Commander Ryan Zinke wins that in Montana.
I think that would have been a little clearer, a little more MAGA.
A little more MAGA, bigger win.
But Commander Zinke's now been, is identified as the winner.
So these are starting to fall on Commander Zinke in Montana.
We'll try to get him on later today.
I want to go to Caroline Wren.
You know, and Burquam's there, so the 11 a.m., or the 11 a.m.
Eastern Time, 9 a.m.
your time, press conference they were going to have, they kicked that to later in the afternoon, too.
So everything is slow-walked, Caroline Wren.
And I just want to make sure the audience understands this.
It's a mathematical impossibility for Katie Hobbs, and even the media's kind of said that, because last night they're saying on TV, well, there's no chance that Blake Masters, this thing is the Senate.
It's definitely Kelly.
But, you know, Hobbs has got some work to do, or there's maybe a path for Hobbs.
So if MSNBC's saying that, they know the game's over.
I just want our audience to understand what are they trying to do, and particularly because Carrie Lake represents not just Arizona as governor, she represents so much of what's happening in this movement, ma'am.
caroline wren
I think they're trying to do a couple things.
When it comes to Carrie, they want to take the fun and thrill of an election night away from her.
Tomorrow's a federal holiday and it's Veterans Day.
It's a wonderful day that we should be celebrating our veterans.
And they want to drag this out so that it's on a federal holiday and they announce it late at night going into a weekend and bury the story of what is going to be the biggest win in this country.
She's going to not just win, she's going to win by extremely large margin.
That's part one.
The second part of this is that they are terrified and doing anything they can to try and salvage Mark Kelly.
Blake Masters is going to win this.
I really believe that.
And right now, but if it is really tight, I mean, the issues that they had on election day are very, very scary for someone like, if I'm Blake Scamp, I would be very, very angry right now.
People were leaving the line, having to go back to work.
They had 20% of the ballot machines broken.
And also we've learned from experience at any time, in the dead of night where they take forever to count and funny business happens.
Now, I'm not alleging anything.
I don't know of any evidence to that.
So that's not what I'm saying here, though, is that it is just absolute incompetence.
steve bannon
But we do know, but hang on, but we do know if you go back to that chart, if we can put the cross chart on with the blue, if you go back to the chart, there's 17,000 and we're trying to get up the I want to get up the if we do it in the afternoon show where the The guy sits there and goes, Mr. Rogers says, but you know if it's a...
If it's a problem, you can just vote and put it in box number three or behind door number three.
There's 17,000 votes there.
You have it?
Hang on a second.
Here's what I want to do.
I want to take our time.
I got Caroline.
We're gonna take a deep breath.
I want to combine them both and play this one whole piece.
Okay, they got that?
Okay, play this one whole piece.
I want Caroline Wren to comment on this.
unidentified
It's chairman of the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors.
And I'm Stephen Richard, the Maricopa County Recorder.
And again, the board and the recorder run elections here in Maricopa County as a team.
And we're very excited about how things are going today on election day.
We had all 223 vote centers have opened.
We've already had over 45,000 people who have checked in and already voted today.
We did want to come out and discuss one issue that's going on out there in about 20% of the vote centers.
Again, we have 223 vote centers across the county.
In about 20% of those, when people will go and they try and Run the ballot through this tabulator.
Maybe one out of every five or so of those ballots, they're not going through.
But this is something we've prepared for.
We have a redundancy.
The ballot will not go through this tabulator.
And by the way, those ballots that go through this tabulator, they go back here in the machine.
If their ballot's not going through the tabulator, then we will ask them to go here at door number three and place their ballot into this secure box.
Those ballots will remain secure in there all day long, and at the end of voting, after 7 p.m., when everything is completed, then these ballots will be taken out securely and delivered by a bipartisan team, so Republican and Democrat, down to here at the central tabulation center, where they will be tabulated.
steve bannon
This is, that is not, that's not a Mr. Rogers episode.
Caroline, you see what a fiasco it is.
But here's the thing, behind door number three, if you look at the, put the chart back up, there's 17,000.
17,000 votes are listed by the election officials as box number three, or door number three.
We have no earthy idea how many people waved off from there.
And this is why Blake Masters ought to not just be lured up, I'd actually be in court right now, You know, prepping this to say, what in the hell went on here?
Right?
Because Blake Masters could come down to a thousand votes.
caroline wren
Oh, Blake is all over this, as is our team.
Even, you know, while I seem not as concerned about those 70,000 per carry because we'll win big, it doesn't matter.
Every legal vote should be counted.
We will fight for every single legal vote to be counted and counted correctly.
And so, you know, we have 40 attorneys that are scattered all, you know, all over the different counties.
Especially America, but Gina Svoboda is running for all of us, for Blake, for Carrie, for Fincham, our election day operations.
She is a genius.
I know you've had her on here and she is, you know, I have complete and total confidence in her.
She is all over this and monitoring it, watching it.
She's got people in the tabulation centers.
And so that 17,000 though is, you know, while it looks in this large, and there's 621,000 to our estimate votes still to be counted.
May 17 kind of seems small, but it isn't.
Every single vote is going to matter.
And this box number three thing, a lot of them were just placed in these boxes.
Who was watching?
What was the chain of custody?
It is just total incompetence out of Maricopa County.
steve bannon
By the way, breaking news, we got a Navy SEAL in Montana, one Ryan Zinke, and right now Navy SEAL, our own Eli Crane, just announced by Associated Press, NBC News, and I think Washington Post as the winner.
NBC, ABC, and the Associated Press.
caroline wren
Eli Crane won yesterday afternoon, so I'm glad that the AP announced it 18 hours later.
steve bannon
Here's my point, they're going to do the same thing to you guys.
caroline wren
I know.
It was over for Eli, technically, like two days ago, but here we are.
steve bannon
54% by the way, real close one, a nail biter, right?
caroline wren
Why do we rely on the AP?
I mean, that should be the real overhaul that we do here.
This is ridiculous.
steve bannon
But I want to go through one thing.
Carrie Lake has started her transition.
She's had meetings.
She's already working on the border invasion.
She's working on the special session that that'll take care of this fiasco.
We can report those two things that this is actually happening.
caroline wren
Yep, absolutely.
steve bannon
So walk us through, what should we look at for today, the process?
What is your best guess?
There's going to be a press conference this afternoon, Real America's Voice will cover it, if it's in the 5 o'clock Eastern Standard Time to 7, we'll cover it.
What is your sense of how they're going to try to bleed you guys out and just delay, delay, delay, so that this comes up at, they announce this at 8.30 a.m.
Sunday morning, ma'am?
caroline wren
The rural votes will trickle in today, and those are going to be very good for us.
We know that.
We've been winning at huge margins, as has Blake and others in the rural counties.
Those will trickle in today.
We expect another drop from Pima County.
Pima is obviously a more left county, although we've been massively outperforming in Pima.
With election day votes and even what we thought we would in our own models.
In Pima County, we're looking at another 108,000 votes of people who went and hand walked in their ballots.
Again, these are people that did not want to put their ballots in the mail or put it into a drop box.
They walked it in.
Those are our people.
Those break huge for us.
And Carrie spent, and Blake's from Pima County.
Carrie spent a ton of time down there.
So I actually think we're going to do well there.
There's another 40,500 votes in Pima that are early votes, either ones coming in by mail.
Those are gonna break against us, we know that.
So if I were doing the game that they're doing, I'm sure they're gonna trickle those out in the morning just to make sure, oh look, Kerry and Blake drop again, and still ignoring the fact that there's probably 400,000 votes that we're gonna win 60% way plus.
So I expect they do that.
I wouldn't be surprised if Maricopa does the second part of the drop they did last night.
There's still a few remaining of these mail-in ballot ones that for some reason they're still sitting on, which is unbelievable to me.
And so I would not be shocked to see that and see, potentially, us dip a little bit and then it just explode.
But they're going to obviously delay the explosion.
Or they'll trick her out of her time.
So, oh, all of a sudden, Carrie takes the lead by one.
Oh, now it's two.
Now it's three.
And then by next Tuesday, nobody's ever going to report that she won by five.
It's hard to really tell these numbers, but we think it's going to be decisive.
And they're trying to take that narrative away.
steve bannon
But, you know, outside of War Room, I don't think anybody really jumped on the five and a half, what, five and a half to six percent win she had in the primary, right?
Because they bled it out for so many days.
caroline wren
You know, Fox News was reporting the day after our primary.
I mean, we knew by eight or nine p.m., you knew this, that we were going to win by five points.
We stuck with our data.
We knew what our votes were.
And, like, the evening news, I'm not going to say which anchor, was reporting that Carrie Lake had lost the day after.
So it's just, it's irresponsible journalism.
They love to just report that Republicans lose or anyone tied to Trump.
That's what they really want to do.
They want this narrative right now that Trump had a horrible day and lost all these races.
There is no more Trumpian ticket than in Arizona.
And that is, ultimately, it's not even, you know, partially it's about Kerry because they fear her because she's going to be such an absolute force.
They're terrified of her.
But a lot of this is about them just wanting to, you know, stick a knife in Donald Trump.
And they are so, so wrong on that.
I think it's important to reflect here.
Blake Masters is going to be within 2,000 votes.
And do you know how much money Mitch McConnell spent here?
Zero.
Zero dollars.
steve bannon
Yep.
caroline wren
Spent $40 million on Dr. Oz in Pennsylvania.
Again, every time that Mitch McConnell touches anything, it goes to shit.
It's just a waste of money.
I'm sure this is what's going to happen in Herschel Walker.
They'll do the runoff in Georgia.
They'll announce Karl Rove is going to run some obscure PAC, steal $75 million of Ken Griffin and other people's money.
They're going to set it on fire running ridiculous television ads and lose us another Senate seat.
If they just let Herschel be Herschel and run his race and take him around and meet with as many people as possible, put a camera in front of him, bring people along, he'll win.
But I've seen it too many times.
And it is just, if Blake Masters pulls this off, which he will, without a single penny from Washington DC.
That is the wake-up call everyone should have.
Not that Donald Trump's a bad candidate.
steve bannon
Yeah, but that's also Carrie Lake put it across the goal line.
Real quickly, what's your social media so people can follow you today, ma'am?
unidentified
It's at Caroline Wren.
steve bannon
At Caroline Wren.
Caroline Wren, thank you very much.
Honored to have you on here.
unidentified
Okay, short commercial break.
steve bannon
We're going to be back in the War Room in just a moment.
unidentified
It's all started, everything's begun, and you are over, cause we're taking down the CCP!
Spread the word all through Hong Kong, we will fight till they're all gone, 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.
steve bannon
Hey, um, okay.
We're back in the War Room.
Hey, how we doing?
We're back in the War Room.
We got a lot going on.
There's a lot of balls being juggled.
Um, it's, it's crazy, but it's a good crazy.
Let's go to Terry Shull.
We got Ben Burcrom out in Maricopa County.
We're going to go to him momentarily.
Let's go to Schilling.
So Schilling, you know, the New York Post and the Daily Mail and everybody's reporting that President Trump is furious and he's blaming this all on the Right to Life movement and You know, he thought he could have had a better night, although he's been the most pro-life president.
Do we have your tweet or the Lifesite News tweet we can put up?
What's the reality here?
MSNBC is saying this was abortion, this was young women on abortion, this was independent women on abortion.
What say you?
terry schilling
Steve, the situation is very clear.
Democrats will never stop fighting and attacking Republicans on abortion.
You will never get them to stop that until you do one simple thing.
Attack them on abortion.
Go on offense.
What we saw on election night is, and through this election, was a failure of Republicans to fight and expose their Democrat opponents on their extremism.
That is what happened.
How many candidates actually made an issue of the campaign on the campaign trail that their Democrat opponent, like John Fetterman, supports abortion in the ninth month for nine-pound babies by 13-year-old girls funded by tax dollars without ever notifying the parents?
Did Pennsylvania voters really know that's what it was at stake?
Did Dr. Oz ever endorse the 15-week pain capable bill and have that as a response, as a reasonable restriction on abortion that we can do that's supported by 60% of Americans?
The reason abortion and DOBs was a net negative for us is because we didn't fight back.
We try to ignore it, Steve.
This is malpractice at the highest degrees.
It is political malpractice when Democrats have spent half a billion dollars on a campaign issue attacking you.
Look, Steve, you know as well as I do, the only reason you ignore an issue in the campaign trail is if you think it'll go away and you don't need to address it and that won't be an issue.
And two, if you think you're going to lose on it and lose more votes by responding to it.
Republicans screwed the pooch on this.
That's the reality.
And by the way, this issue isn't going away in 2024.
So we better know how to attack Democrats on this because they're going to put this on the ballot in every state they can.
Every single state they're going to put these abortion amendments on the ballot and Republicans, especially the next president of the United States, better have a good response to make Democrats pay a price and make sure voters know just how extreme they are.
We lost because we didn't fight.
steve bannon
Yeah, the extremism.
We know that that poll, but nobody really brought it up.
Nobody got into it.
Do we have that tweet?
I want to just walk for podcast and radio audience.
Just walk down what this tweet says.
I want people to understand what the numbers are.
So can you read it to people, Terry Schilling?
terry schilling
Every pro-life Republican governor who signed an abortion ban won by a lion's slide.
Ron DeSantis signed a 20 week bill plus 19 points.
Greg Abbott.
Signed a heartbeat bill, plus 11 points.
Had $200 million spent against him, by the way.
Brian Kemp signed a heartbeat bill, plus eight.
Mike DeWine, plus 25.
Kevin Stitt, plus four.
There wasn't a single Republican governor who signed a pro-life bill into law that lost his election on Tuesday, let alone one that didn't win by eight points or less.
There were no tight elections for the people that actually did something on abortion or articulated Okay, where can people go to see your explanation of this?
I want to get all the audience up to speed on this thing because this is going to be a massive issue and you can't run and hide from it.
don't need to give them our policy positions. We treat them like idiots and that's what's beautiful about the war room Steve. This show is so in the weeds.
You guys are our signal not noise and that's what we need from our politicians.
steve bannon
Okay where do people go to see your explanation of this? I want to get all the audience up to speed on this thing because it's gonna be a massive issue and you can't run and hide from it. And by the way, Carrie Lake will be telling how on the scale of most pro-life to run and hide, where on the scale will Carrie Lake fall sir?
terry schilling
She's going to win.
And Carrie Lake didn't run from any of these issues.
Carrie Lake used these family issues.
And by the way, she was one of the first big family pledge signers to sign our pledge.
And she's going to win.
She waded into these issues.
She didn't run from them.
She exposed Katie Hobbs as the extremist on these issues, and she's going to win a very tight race in Arizona.
And it's beautiful.
And by the way, they're talking about Carrie Lake as a potential president because of how strong of a leader she is.
It's all about leadership and telling voters what you're going to do when you're in office.
I'm going to pin this to the top of my Twitter thread and all my other social media accounts.
So just go to my Twitter and all my social media.
It's Schilling1776.
Please like and reshare it so that we can get this out to all of our candidates.
Send it to your favorite candidates.
Make sure they know we have to go on offense.
I break this down really clearly here.
steve bannon
OK, Terry, this is great.
We're going to have you be back on.
Obviously doing deep dives on this.
Thank you so much.
terry schilling
Thanks, Steve.
steve bannon
Let's go back.
Can I go to Maricopa County?
So Burquam.
CNN ratted you out and you got to tell me you got the hook from the press conference?
ben bergquam
Oh my gosh!
This is unbelievable, Steve.
So we're inside there all morning long.
They're not requiring press credentials, other than your general press credentials.
There's multiple networks in there right now that don't have, they have these little red badges for, specifically for Maricopa County.
I get in there.
I get set up.
We're about to do our live hit.
And the clerk who actually kicked us out in 2020, before they had any press credential requirements, she came up, targeted us.
I believe it was a CNN producer who complained about us.
We get kicked out.
They don't want us in there.
But all the other networks, and most of them have the little red badge, but multiple of them don't have it.
They're still inside.
This is a bottom line.
When Kerry Lakes takes over as governor, Every single person that's in leadership in Maricopa County elections needs to be fired.
This is absolutely outrageous.
The reason they don't want us in there is because we're actually going to ask the questions to the county elections recorder who's allowing this to happen.
I had two questions for him.
How the hell could you allow the exact same thing to happen in 2022 as you did in 2020?
It's just unacceptable, but they don't want us in there.
So we're applying now, Steve, for their emergency press credentials, and we'll see what happens.
But it's just an absolute joke out here in Maricopa.
steve bannon
Are there other organizations that don't have the double, because you've got one credential, but have the double-seeker probation credential?
ben bergquam
Yes.
steve bannon
Yes.
unidentified
There are other ones in there right now that don't have them.
steve bannon
Why don't you go back and politely, you know, get in her face.
Be polite.
Be polite.
And particularly the CNN guys.
Make sure you interview the CNN producers.
The cowardly CNN producers.
ben bergquam
I think I have some video.
I think I have some video of it.
We'll have to cut it when I said they're kicking us out.
And I was being as polite as I could, but the problem is now, now they have, what they've added are these walls, the same people that say walls are racist, they have walls all around the building.
Now there are eight sheriff's officers out here.
I was actually, there were no sheriff's officers inside when I went in, and until the clerk came in, until CNN, again, this is allegedly, I saw they were complaining about us, and they came and kicked us out.
They had sheriffs come in to remove us.
By the way, this is what the left wants.
This is all tied together with them calling us insurrectionists.
They want violence.
They want people to freak out.
There's no need for eight sheriff's deputies out here.
There's nobody out here.
When they asked me to leave, I left.
steve bannon
But here's the most important thing.
I couldn't tell that.
By the way, when I'm the steadying influence, you know we've got issues.
unidentified
That's a problem.
steve bannon
The reason they don't want you in there is they know you're going to ask four or five tough questions when they start putting up the charts.
That's what they can't handle.
They don't want that.
ben bergquam
That's exactly right.
steve bannon
So, we're gonna continue to press on.
ben bergquam
Okay, ladies and gentlemen, this is why it's a fight.
steve bannon
When we take over... Yep.
Yep.
Go ahead.
ben bergquam
When we take over, that ends.
When we take over, that ends.
steve bannon
The end of days for the Maricopa County corrupt officials and incompetent.
If they weren't incompetent, why is this taking so long?
Why can't they count them sooner?
They don't want to count them sooner.
They're doing this on purpose.
Ben Burcombe, just hang on one second.
I want to go to, uh, I got Natalie Winters.
Natalie, uh, you heard Jim Banks.
He wants to be the whip.
You've seen the agenda.
You've done, in fact, you're compiling all your investigations you've done over the last couple of years.
Give us your, give us your sense of things.
And by the way, announce why we're on air.
While Biden is over, I think it's in Bali, right?
They're going to have, I think it's the G20.
There's going to be a side meeting, first time Xi and Biden are going to meet on Monday.
Remember Biden brags about he spent more time with Xi than anybody.
And of course that kind of shows up in the laptop from hell where they're bragging about that all the time and cutting these deals with the Chinese Communist Party.
Natalie Winters, your thoughts about banks and about the agenda and about what's got to happen here.
natalie winters
Yeah, it was Biden who famously bragged about over 25 hours of private meetings with Xi Jinping at an Atlantic Council event and to really have things come full circle.
A few years ago during the campaign, I'd actually submitted a Freedom of Information Act request to the U.S.
State Department asking for all relevant information pertaining to those meetings.
Who was there?
Who was translating?
What did they talk about?
Any ostensibly important documents, information about those meetings.
And believe it or not, well, I'm sure you believe it, the U.S.
State Department gave me, I think it was about a five to six year window in terms of returning these documents, which would have been way past even the end of Joe Biden's then very unlikely first term.
But do you know who actually wrote a letter to the U.S.
State Department on my behalf asking them to expedite this process to get these documents?
It was actually none other than Congressman Jim Banks.
So he really has always been an advocate, not just going after the Biden regime, but specifically these Chinese Communist Party ties.
And I think that these investigations, whether it's the origins of COVID, the NIH's role, gain of function research, Hunter Biden, Afghanistan, the list really does go on.
I think that this is our prime opportunity to really get to the bottom of the central question, which Not only are we seeing on full display right now when it comes to the counting of election results, but is the Biden regime, are they fueled by incompetence or malfeasance?
And I think my theory of the case, as I think the worms show, is the latter.
So the question is really, where does this malfeasance, where does this frankly drive to, I think, destroy America from within, derived from, I think a lot of times, at least with the case of Hunter Biden.
You can sort of loop it back to the Chinese Communist Party and foreign influence operations.
But I think that it's also the answer when it comes to things like Afghanistan and the origins of COVID, right?
It wasn't just that the NIH didn't know what was happening in Wuhan.
They were very okay with funding gain-of-function research.
So I think we're very strongly positioned to be going into these investigations, looking for that angle of attack.
And I think for the first time in a long time, you know, it's quality over quantity.
The Republicans that we have in leadership, obviously we need to remove some people from positions of leadership, but people like Jim Banks, a lot of the fighters that we've elected in this new, new and upcoming Congress are people who actually want to get to the bottom.
Don't just want to, you know, cut sound bites for their campaign ads from hearings.
These are people who actually care about the issues.
So like I said, it's quality over quantity.
And I think we have a lot of really heavy hitters.
steve bannon
Natalie, real quickly, given what you've seen in these investigations, is there any way you can have that it doesn't, I want to say, devolve into but lead to just monster battles next year in the spring or summer next year?
these investigations and where you've seen some of this go as they dig in.
We've got about 30 seconds.
What's your predictions right now for how tough, if the Republicans do what Banks said they're going to do on the investigation side, how tough is this going to get?
natalie winters
I mean, we have the chance to really unmask the entire apparatus that is the in-your-face state, the deep state, the permanent political class, all the way from Beijing to the green energy agenda here to Afghanistan, and I don't think we've ever had an opportunity like this before.
steve bannon
Natalie, how do people get to you?
Where do they go?
natalie winters
Natalie G. Winters on all platforms.
steve bannon
She's our executive editor and the co-host.
Natalie, thank you so much.
Look forward to seeing you this afternoon.
Natalie Winters.
Short break.
We got James Finch from Home Title Lock and of course the one and only Mike Lindell next in the war room.
unidentified
Welcome, we will fight till they're all gone, we rejoice when there's no more, let's take down...
steve bannon
Okay.
Welcome back.
Uh, Mike Lindell joins us now here in the war room.
Uh, Mike, you got so much going on.
We're going to have you on for a deeper dive in your tech guys this afternoon and tomorrow.
Walk me through everything that's happening.
mike lindell
Well, we've got, uh, um, with everything that's going on there, we've kept our other parallel track going on Steve.
And we've got in Arizona, we just appealed to the Arizona Supreme court for Cochise County to hand count their election.
And these are all important cases we have going across the country, but that one's real important.
And we have another one in Wisconsin.
We have a complaint now filed against the WEC in Wisconsin, the Crooked WEC.
It's a two-way communication they did in the election with their tabulators.
To an unofficial IP address.
So, uh, Steve, we have these going all across the country and I'm just so excited because we've got, um, you know, these are steps to get rid of the machines, get us back to elections, not selections.
And, um, I believe we are going to get the, uh, the Senate.
I believe everything great news is going to come out of Nevada and Arizona.
steve bannon
How important is it Fincham and Marchant and then Kerry Lake in Arizona and Nevada to get this sorted about the machine issues?
How important is it for them to win?
mike lindell
It's as critical as it gets.
I believe Arizona, you get Kerry Lake and Mark Fincham in there, they are going right after these machines.
Remember, they have a case in Arizona Uh, they, that they put up a few months ago, a preliminary injunction to get rid of the machines altogether in Arizona.
And that was, that was denied on standing.
Well, now we're appealing that to the Supreme court and they, uh, uh, and that will, uh, or they are Carrie Lake and, and Mark Fincham.
So, uh, great.
They are critical that they win absolutely critical to our country, to our nation and, uh, and to the state of Arizona and Nevada.
And, uh, we've got to, This is the long game and the short game.
And they're going to do it, Steve.
I really believe it.
steve bannon
We just got kicked out of the press conference right there at the Maricopa County, so real America's Voice owned Ben Burcombe, one of the best investigative reporters.
How does everybody get to you?
You've got so much going on.
Where's the one place they can go and see that all the fights you're fighting on all the different fronts and all the new evidences you guys have, this incredible crime scene desk you have.
Where do people go?
mike lindell
Yeah, you guys go to get the Frank Speech app.
I can't say enough of that.
Go there and watch.
We have a 24-7 Lindale TV.
And I'm on again today at 6 p.m.
Central Time, and we're putting everything up there.
We've got all the... If you want to know what happened in your state or in your race, check it out on PrankSpeech.
And I'm very excited, Steve.
As you know, you talked to me this morning, and I think the way things are unfolding, we couldn't ask for anything better at this moment in time.
steve bannon
Fantastic.
Mike, I'll see you guys this afternoon.
Thank you so much, Mike Lindell.
Mike Lindell, going everywhere, traveling everywhere.
By the way, Colton Duncan from the campaign just put it, over 30% of polling places in Maricopa County, the largest county in the nation, had issues with voting machines on election day.
We are not a serious country.
This is Colton Duncan.
Let me go, one of the things I'm very worried about, we've got Economic News Day.
Cortez is going to be with me for the whole hour.
We're going to go through the inflation news today and the real inflation that's hidden in the numbers, or they're in the numbers, the media doesn't want to talk about it.
Your home right now is an asset, although all this discussion about prices dropping, that's your biggest asset.
You must secure it.
I asked James Finch, a cybersecurity advisor over at Home Title Lock.
James, I'm more worried about this right now of people getting hoodwinked or something happening because right now their financial lives are going to depend upon their house and the equity in their house.
How do people protect themselves?
How big a problem and how they protect themselves?
unidentified
Steve, this problem is much bigger than it was even when I was in the FBI.
And with our current economic situation, I anticipate an uptick in home title theft and basically theft of a home.
And the reason for this is that your home's title is publicly accessible information.
Anyone, anywhere in the world can access your home's title with your signature on that title.
Over the internet.
And with a forged document, forged signature on that document, and a fake notary stamp, your home's title can be transferred out of your name into the bad guy's name.
And at that point, the bad guy then starts taking out loans, draining the equity, the hard-earned equity from your home.
And with the slowdown in the housing market, bad guys don't, they don't Care about the rising interest rates because they have no plans to pay back the loans they take out on your home.
And the best way to guard against this is to monitor your home's title 24-7.
And unfortunately, your home's title is right there at the county recorder's office and it's easy enough to get to.
And as a result, with Home Title Lock, your title is monitored 24-7 in any change.
Any addition to it automatically alerts Home Title Lock, who alerts the homeowner.
At that point, you thwart the bad guy's attempts to steal your home's title and basically prevent you from being out on the street when someone comes and knocks on your door because some bad guy has taken Your home's title, and taking out loans on your home.
steve bannon
On the street, or you're paying off, the other option is you're paying off hundreds of thousands of dollars in loans at jacked up interest rates.
It's a disaster either way.
Where do people go right now, and where do they have to log in for the special deal?
unidentified
People can go to HomeTitleLock.com.
That's HomeTitleLock.com, and learn all about the many cases of people who have fallen victim to this type of crime.
They can also find out how they can protect themselves from becoming a victim of home title theft.
steve bannon
HomeTitleLock.com.
I need everybody to take time to go do this.
When you hear the economic news, we're going to walk you through economic news that came out today on CPI.
We're going to break it all down with Steve Gortez and myself in the five o'clock hour.
And you're going to want to make sure that you've got all your financial assets.
Remember, your home is your greatest financial asset.
One more time, James, where do people go?
unidentified
People should go to HomeTitleLock.com.
That's HomeTitleLock.com.
steve bannon
Thank you, brother.
James Finch, former FBI, back in the days when the FBI was the FBI, from Cyber Security Advisor to HomeTitleLock.
Thank you, brother.
Okay, we got Cortez at five.
We're going to go through economics and also a lot of politics, capital markets.
We're going to break it all down.
Of course, we're going to go around and drill down on exactly how we secure these majorities and governorships.
unidentified
Tough, tough fights, but this is a tough, tough fight club crowd.
steve bannon
Be back here at five o'clock.
Where are we going to be?
You're going to be in the war room.
unidentified
See you then.
