Speaker Time Text

Well, the virus has now killed more than 100 people in China, and new cases have been confirmed around the world.
So you don't want to frighten the American public.
France and South Korea have also got evacuation plans.
But you need to prepare for and assume.
Broadly warning Americans to avoid all non-essential travel to China.
That this is going to be a real serious problem.
France, Australia, Canada, the US, Singapore, Cambodia, Vietnam, the list goes on.
Health officials are investigating more than 100 possible cases in the US.
In 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.
He's gonna use his veto power if he needs to.
Let's go and bring in Mike Memoli who's standing by for us.
So Mem, it is incredible how happy the Democratic Party is right now.
The president is right now, even though it is still looking like he's not going to maintain control of the House, the Democrats.
And he could lose control of the Senate.
katy tur
But they look, I mean, just from that, from that attitude and that, you know, that energy, it looks like the Democrats won even if they lose.
unidentified
It's funny you say that, Katie, because I've been joking off camera, let's say, about never has a president been happier to lose control of the House.
But I think it's just a measure of the level of expectations that the president himself alluded to in his remarks.
He took a shot at us here in the media, the pundits who are all forecasting a red wave.
And then really did turn it around and thank the energy of especially the young people in this room and across the country who he said helped make the difference.
Now I know everyone can see on screen here we still have MSNBC Decision 2022 in the chyron, but I think as I was watching this event we're getting very close to changing that to Decision 2024 because I can't help but watch this kind of event and hear the president in his speech here and not think that they're test driving the kind of message that he would take into a 2024 Okay, the question – we have a lot more people.
steve bannon
Right there, they're laughing at you, right?
They're saying that the control of the House and potential control of the Senate – definite control of the House and potential control of the Senate doesn't mean anything because they're going to get back to Washington as usual.
Deal-cutting transactions.
Etc and and you know that that can't happen then we've definitely lost the country So the question there's many questions before stay with the McConnell President Trump announcing next Tuesday all the the madness over there with the Santas everything has happened President Trump's now Put Glenn Youngkin on notice.
All right, don't cross me Or deal with it.
By the way, if you want to deal with it, go ahead and go ahead and crossing It's a free country.
But it really is going to come down to this massive, important vote on who's going to be Speaker of the House.
And the question before...
Everyone, is Kevin McCarthy tough enough?
Is Kevin McCarthy focused enough?
Is Kevin McCarthy not part of the cartel?
Russ Vogt laid it out.
Steve Cortez.
And like I said, we've asked for surrogates to come on and make the case for Kevin McCarthy.
So we're open to that.
The audiences, I know where the War Room posse is.
I can read the live chats, right?
So I'm not stupid on this topic.
I want to go back to, we got Arizona, we got Washington III, we got Boebert in Colorado, we got this whole situation in Nevada, but I want to go back to Arizona.
Tonight is the next drop, and by the way, let's pull the, up on my getter, I think I've got the thing from Max Evans is up there about Maricopa County.
If we can pull that, I want to play that.
And we're waiting for a special guest to join us.
Ben Berquam, just the process.
I mean, you know, Charlie Kirk and Basobic and the team last night, Benny Johnson did another great live stream.
I think we drafted off their live stream because I was working on actually Nevada last night.
And I think our live stream got to 30,000 people just on our picking up their live stream.
I think their live stream was hundreds of thousands.
But it was, you know, late at night when these drops are coming.
From what you know, is the next drop really going to be at 6 o'clock tonight, or are they going to do mini-drops during the day?
Because we still have this huge amount of votes in Maricopa County.
And what I'm understanding, and we're trying to get Carolyn Renbeck on here, is that the next drop could actually put Put Carrie Lake back, either put her on top or put her very close to being on top.
Are they going to hold all of that till 6 p.m.
Arizona time, 8 p.m.
Eastern Standard Time today?
ben bergquam
They haven't been clear on that, Steve.
Again, we were not allowed to get in there on the press conference.
There's a lot of questions that weren't asked that should have been asked, but basically what we've been told is to expect about 60,000 votes per day to be dropped.
If yesterday was a guide to what today will happen, it'll be later tonight.
There was really nothing throughout the day.
They basically waited till late in the evening, and then they dropped all the earlier ballots, again, the ones that padded the Democrats.
They still haven't got into the 353,000 of Maricopa that are still, you know, the 275,000 day of drop-offs, and the 100,000 from Pima County.
So those are the ones that everyone's waiting for.
But, you know, it's just outrageous what we're seeing here.
It's just...
It's criminal.
I mean, this is not a third world country.
This is America, and you shouldn't be waiting multiple, multiple days to get there, but that's what we are.
And again, what they mean for evil, we're going to use for good.
I got a friend over here that I wanted to bring in when we have a second.
steve bannon
Sure.
Yeah, I tell you what, just hang on for one second, hang our, hold our friend for a second.
I want to go to the, we've got the great Alex Jones who joins us right now.
Alex, you know, we've got the Nevada situation, you know, things are coming in the middle of the night with no surveillance.
You see these drops are going against Marchant, going against Laxalt.
You've got the situation in In Arizona, where they're saying, hey, you know, we could have the majority of the Maricopa County maybe done by Monday or Tuesday next week.
The Associated Press has just announced this morning that they're not even going to be close to calling the House for our takeover of it until at least Tuesday.
And oh, by the way, in a buried lead, the California seats could take weeks.
Steve Cortez says that this is all about exhausting and demoralizing the MAGA movement.
What say you, sir?
alex jones
Well, that's exactly what everything is.
Flooding the borders, destroying the currency, drag queen pedophile time.
All of it is about trying to break our will.
And they know there's a major political realignment against globalism and against the neo-leftist movements all over the world.
And so the global WEF establishment, through its proxies at the CCP and the Democratic Party, wholly owned, are doing everything they can to demoralize us with the fentanyl and the Hollywood message of hating ourselves and hating America and two men can have a baby.
All of this is meant to break our will because we were asleep 20, 30, 40 years ago, comparatively to now.
So the frog has woken up that it's in the boiling water.
We're trying to jump out, and they're doing everything they can to just overwhelm us and make us give up.
But that's not what's happening.
Almost everybody I know is more energized by the clear fraud manipulation.
They understand only massive, massive red waves of the future at every level, local, state, federal, you name it, can override these algorithms and these scams they're running.
So the deep state is hanging on by its fingernails.
We know, even CNN reported on Tuesday, exit polls showed destruction, annihilation from the Democrats.
And of course, 74% in national polls and other polls even higher showed that most Americans blame the Democratic Party and Joe Biden and we're going to vote for change.
But then magically, We probably have one the Senate we probably have one as you said about 10 seats or more in the house despite all the fraud despite Google manipulating the algorithms on people being able to actually get to populist and conservative news so there's lots of layers of manipulation but despite all of that we're actually going It's a process.
They were able to steal it two years ago.
upstream and actually jumping over the dam.
And so they want to slow this down and drag this out so that we don't get any type of victory in our minds, even though we are obviously seeing a major, major victory here.
And again, it's a process.
They were able to steal it two years ago.
They have not been completely successful this time.
And the history shows, just like you go back to when they cheated President Andrew Jackson the first time, came back even stronger years later.
And so history always repeats itself.
And as long as we don't let them convince us that we're defeated, we're not defeated because we have the historic basic precepts and values that made America and have made civilization great.
We have to continue to advertise those facts that we promote safety and security and honor and prosperity and freedom.
They promote a Venezuelan type Chinese communist nightmare.
steve bannon
Walk through the, um, give us your thoughts on, um, you know, you've got them celebrating.
It's a huge win for Biden.
It's nonstop Trump.
It's all Trump's fault.
It's all MAGA's fault.
And they're taking away, not just the ability to us to get, look, we're putting up the counter narrative, but you've seen conservative media essentially roll over most of it.
Uh, conservative ink media, I might add, not the gateway pundits and the good guys, but, um, they also want to take away the celebratory nature.
They don't want Carrie Lake.
On global television with all the world's media there taking her bow with a five point win on Tuesday night.
They want to dissipate it into next week, right?
And to announce it at...
if not sunday morning at uh... at eight thirty to do it like that tuesday after wednesday afternoon like two o'clock in the afternoon what is your what is your guidance to mega about what needs to what what is the highest priorities we have to do to make sure people are not exhausted not tomorrow's gonna know there are some people said they're going to scan take this anymore i can't do it what it what is the words about extremes about this fight well for people that just can't take it anymore if we don't hold the line is to be a hundred times worse so
alex jones
this is easy what we're doing compared to what is the like these authoritarians break our will And so what you've said is absolutely true.
I think I couldn't say it that well, Steve, is that we had a victory despite all their fraud.
They don't want us to ever celebrate that, so they're dragging it out until it's not a news story anymore, and then selling the fact that this is an endorsement of Biden, and now Biden's going to run in 2024 again, and Fetterman could run for president, and this is just incredible.
It's all a bunch of grandstanding to energize their base.
Meanwhile, the war hawks, the neocons, the rhinos are swooping in in a battle with Trump, trying to make sure the populist wing of the party doesn't fully take over and are distracting everybody with this DeSantis Trump uh... ego battle and i support both men but i'll say this it needs to stop it needs to stop right now but clearly uh... it's some of the elements of fox news it's the national review types and others that are there throwing a lot of you on this fire
to not make it about the debbie f the open borders of the fentanyl and the new world order and and the dollar devaluation all the criminality and the fact that by the end string two sentences together and we've got this giant bizarre we'll road warrior mutant i've been forced in to the senate out of pennsylvania Yeah.
Instead of talking about how bad they are and mobilizing and saying, hey, we're actually winning this fight.
We barely won this boxing match, but we did win it.
Now we got to fight harder next time and keep mobilizing.
Instead, we make it all about civil war, Republican Party, Republicans routed.
No, we need to say, listen, we could have better leadership in the House and Senate.
Yes, we need to get rid of the old guard neocons and people connected to Mitt Romney.
Yes, that's the real fight.
So they're trying to distract us with a Trump-DeSantis fight instead of the leadership issue that's so central that you've been talking about.
So we need to stay focused on the leadership of the House.
We need to stay focused on these other races so they don't steal them.
And we need to mobilize and take control of our local cities.
You know, the deep state knows that they think global but act local.
Because Democrats need these big blue city capitals to stay in power, be able to steal the rest of the states.
And so that's what they're doing.
They need control of their blue cities so they can keep control of each individual state and engage in fraud over and over again.
So the real battleground isn't just in the House or Senate or the presidency, it is at the local level.
And that's what scared the deep states so much when we saw millions of Americans going to city halls, and going to the school functions and the school boards and then we learned Homeland Security wasn't called by the unions. They told the unions to call them to try to declare parents that didn't want critical race theory or all this pedophile garbage being taught at school to go intimidate them because if we actually get mobilized peacefully locally, if we start running for office and we support people running locally, we will build the
coalitions that will take over the blue cities.
And once we take the blue cities, and once one blue city falls back to America, like Chicago, or could it be New York, or could it be Miami, or could it be Austin, Texas.
I mean, there's many, many towns.
Once we finally ever take over one of those cities, through the vote, They will all fall like dominoes.
So we are liberating America from the neoliberal, globalist, Marxist combine, and we're going to do it.
steve bannon
Alex, if you just hang on for one second, Alex Jones is going to join us on the other side.
We're going to try to go to Washington, Arizona, Nevada.
We're jammed up today in the war room.
unidentified
Be back in a moment.
Pandemic.
With Stephen K. Bannon.
The epidemic is a demon and we can't let this demon hide.
War Room.
Pandemic.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
steve bannon
Okay, Alex, Steve Cortez said in the last segment, he said it yesterday too, that McCarthy and McConnell, let's leave their personalities aside, let's leave, if they're warriors, not aside, but they come from a, the deeper problems, they come from the corporatist, globalist mentality that's really been the controlled opposition that's been the Republican Party for now 40 plus years.
Do you agree with that?
And if you do, then what are we going to do to change that, sir?
alex jones
Absolutely.
They are vestigial.
Dinosaurs who belong to a whole nother era.
They are part of that whole lawyer class of the Republican party that sold us down the river to communist China and to all these anti-American policies.
And they just can't help their instincts.
They can't help where they came from.
They can't help who their wives are and their connections to the CCP.
And so they are heavily threatened.
By the whole MAGA Republican movement, by Trump, by DeSantis, by you, by all the great populists across this country that actually have record numbers of Hispanics and black folks voting Republican.
We have almost taken the Republican Party over.
That's why they misspent a lot of the big national campaign funds To make it ineffectual, because they actually don't want a huge new class of patriots coming in, because they're inches away from being replaced.
So they're in an establishment, circle the wagons, with the Pelosi's, with the Biden's of the world, actually working against the American people.
But when we see these elections being partially stolen, when we see all the propaganda and intimidation, that's not a sign of strength.
By the deep state establishment, the globalists, that's a sign of weakness and that they're holding on for dear life, that they are in their political death throes.
And it's again, the globalists in their own internal documents that have leaked have admitted in the last 10 years that globalism's in trouble.
They said if Hillary lost, the New World Order would fall, and then now they've been in a Counter-offensive against us the entire time.
So yes, for people that are the tip of the spear, and people that are the leaders, and people that are on the front lines, they make our lives very uncomfortable.
They try to destroy us.
They try to put us in prison.
The examples are replete with just, you know, the folks hosting the show right now.
But we We stood up for this.
We believe in this.
We're not victims.
We value this because we understand our forebears made sacrifices as well and we stand on their shoulders.
But that's why the viewers and listeners have to understand you've got to stay more focused than ever and realize there are a lot of people in front of you giving everything to make sure we've all got a collective future.
And so don't be intimidated.
Intensify your efforts and just trust in God.
We're going to win this thing.
We don't have a choice.
steve bannon
Yeah, it's to demoralize and frustrate.
And it's not going to happen, right?
They're not going to either demoralize us, they're not going to exhaust us, they're not going to intimidate us.
Alex, how do people get to the show?
We know it's not as easy as it used to be, so I want to make sure everybody can get to it.
How do they do that?
alex jones
Well, that's right.
Tell your audience enough how important it is that they literally are the info war to promote warroom.org, promote infowars.com, ban.video, to take clips and articles, repost our stuff everywhere.
Email and text message is one of the final frontiers where they can't censor populists and conservatives and nationalists as easily.
So your listeners have to understand Key articles you see in InfoWars, key interviews, things you think are most important.
Share those.
People can find the show 11 a.m.
Central every day at InfoWars.com forward slash show.
Steve, thanks so much for having me on.
steve bannon
Thanks, Alex.
Appreciate it.
Let's go back to Ben Burquam.
Ben, you're in Arizona.
We're going to talk about drops later in the show, but I think you have a, do you have a guest for us?
ben bergquam
I sure do.
Yeah, it was actually, Steve, I was out here, I was about to go on with you, and Joe Medina came up.
He was riding his bike.
He's a huge War Room posse member.
He's got audio, and Joe, what do you want to say, brother?
unidentified
I want to say God bless you, Steve, and you're doing a great job, and the good Lord is going to prevail this situation.
And all we have to do is forgive, because forgiveness is greater than vengeance.
Vengeance is mine, sayeth the Lord.
And we will prevail this one.
God bless you.
ben bergquam
You know, and I was thinking about it, Steve.
I was really angry yesterday about what happened when they, you know, when they kicked us out and, you know, injustice, whatever you want to call it.
And Joe came up and just reminded me, he's actually riding his bike around the building, praying over the situation, praying against the principalities and powers of darkness.
And really that, to me, is what it's about.
We've got to stay focused on the mission, stay focused on what God has for us, and know that the battle is mine, sayeth the Lord.
And we keep walking in that.
We pray that, and then He guides us into where to go.
But in the end, the victory is the Lord.
So I just appreciate you, Joe.
unidentified
I appreciate you, too.
ben bergquam
Love you, man.
unidentified
You, too, Steve.
God bless.
steve bannon
Joe, thank you.
Nothing could be better.
Ben, hang on for one second.
That's what it's all about right there.
He's absolutely correct.
Vengeance is... This is not about vengeance.
This is about setting this country right, okay?
As sure as the turning of the earth, we're going to win, okay?
Didn't say it was gonna be easy.
That's what Sunshine Patriot's about.
These are the hard, tough, tough days.
And that's why you gotta just grind through this.
It's grinding.
Jason Miller.
Do I have Jason?
Jason, you know something about grinding.
Before we talk about, I want to talk about President Trump next week and all that, but you've been through a few knife fights politically in your life.
This whole situation with the Speaker, just put, we had Russ vote on, he walked through a Twitter thread about the cartel that's there and how the conservative has always been off to kind of the side, the House Freedom Caucus.
Just what's your assessment of what's going on right now in these power struggles?
Particularly given the results and AP is already saying they're not going to announce the house until at least Tuesday and California could take three more weeks.
You know, we've had Cortez, Alex Jones, others talking about they're trying to, this is a psychological warfare to exhaust and demoralize people.
Your thoughts, sir?
jason miller
I think that's exactly right.
They don't want President Trump to have a victory from election night.
They don't want the Republicans to have the victory from election night.
Look, no such thing as conspiracies, right, Steve?
But also there are no such thing as coincidences here.
I think that what we're seeing from the media is an effort to make sure they delay things.
I even look at Kerry Lake.
I mean, Kerry Lake's going to win this race.
I think we even have a really good shot at getting Blake Masters across the finish line, Adam Blacksall.
What I would like to see, Steve, I do think that Kevin McCarthy needs to, if he wants to have a chance of being Speaker, he has to be much more declarative that he is supporting President Trump.
I thought what Elise Stefanik did yesterday was very smart.
And the fact of the matter is, it's going to be a MAGA-centric caucus for the Republicans in the House and even for the Senate.
We need leadership to match.
steve bannon
I want to go through next Tuesday.
By the way, I agree with you 100%.
It's MAGA-centric, and I think that's going to have implications.
I think people got to get savvy on that, because the MAGA-centric nature of it is not going to go away.
I want to talk about two things.
We've got about four and a half minutes.
Number one, your thoughts on next Tuesday.
Particularly given lame duck, the race in Georgia, the next week won't even be, we're not even going to know that because AP is telling us we're not going to know.
The House, Senate, all of it.
And then we'll talk about Getter for a second.
But tell me your thoughts on next Tuesday given the whole whirlwind that we're in right now.
jason miller
Yeah, so here's what's important for people to realize is that President Trump is going to announce on Tuesday that he's running for president.
And it's going to be a very professional, very buttoned up announcement.
Did a run through this morning with the logistics team.
They have some great folks that are on board.
All the details are covered.
They're going to have a thousand people there with the signs.
Already, I think there are over 250 cameras that requested access.
So they're literally building out additional risers to make sure that they have the overflow capacity.
So people wondering, hey, this is coming together quick.
What's happening?
These guys are pros.
These guys are ready to go.
I personally did the checklist with them this morning.
That's going to be fine.
I spoke with President Trump.
I caught him this morning.
He was on the golf course and talked to him about Tuesday and really his focus.
He said, look, there doesn't need to be any question.
Of course I'm running.
I'm going to do this.
And I want to make sure that people know that I'm fired up and we got to get the country back on track.
And we talked for a couple of minutes about Joe Biden being a cop 27.
And he said, this is a complete joke.
He's Joe Biden is rolling over and playing dead for the globalists.
And meanwhile, these guys are in the US are worried about completely inconsequential things.
So let's get focused what we need to and everyone knows I'm going to run.
So let's go and get started.
steve bannon
Fire off the football, and we're going to have a lot more about the logistics of this, and of course we're going to cover it wall-to-wall.
Jason, give me a couple of minutes.
Getter has been just extraordinary.
You know, last night we're doing these live streams up with Charlie Kirk, and they've got, you know, tens and tens of thousands.
We had 30,000 just popping on in Arizona.
Give us Getter between Brazil, what's happening in Europe, and in the United States.
It's been extraordinary, and not even counting what happens with going into the mainland China.
What's Getter going to do special for this rollout next week of President Trump?
jason miller
Great questions.
We'll be on the ground.
We'll have multiple cameras there.
We'll do interviews with people who are around President Trump.
All the coverage that you need, anything possibly that you'd ever want to know or see from President Trump's announcement on Tuesday, you will find it right here on Getter.
So don't need to change your channel.
Don't need to change the dial.
Stay focused where you are.
We're going to be bringing it to you.
And additionally, things we got coming up, Steve, we're over the 7 million mark for users.
A couple of big things coming up.
I know you have a lot lot of War Room listeners in the UK. We'll be there the entire week of Thanksgiving, the week of the 21st, first ever Getter comedy night, first ever Getter World Cup viewing party. Doing those in the UK. We'll be announcing shortly, we're doing a World Cup viewing party in Rio coming up on November 28th, and then we just announced this morning that we're joining CPAC Japan where Japan is our eighth biggest country. We're growing globally, Steve. Wow. That's awesome. Incredible.
steve bannon
Get on Getter right now.
Download the app.
Last night we had 30,000 people live chat.
I was in the live chat for the entire time.
It's just incredible.
Jason, how do people get to you, sir?
jason miller
At Jason Miller in D.C.
and Steve, you're downplaying your numbers, your numbers on a given day.
You're easily up at one hundred and fifty two hundred thousand people who are viewing around the clock.
And that's just on the getter channel only.
Obviously, you have the podcast, you have the real America's voice all the way.
People are consuming war room.
It's a juggernaut.
It is a juggernaut.
Literally, I'm at dinner last night, Steve.
I know I sent this message to a gentleman comes up.
He's like, Jason Miller from the war room.
I mean, get her what?
President Trump boot?
I'm Jason Miller from the War Room.
It's literally dinner last night.
steve bannon

Cortez, you get Posobiec, you get Charlie Kirk.
Just incredible.
Okay, we're coming back.
We always do many special things on Veterans Day.
We're also doing the 5 to 7 show.
As you know, we always take Veterans Day very seriously here.
But we're in the middle of a political knife fight.
So I'm gonna bring a veteran on, a Green Beret, a hero and a patriot that's served his country, fought for his country, and he's fighting again to get to Congress.
Joe Kent from Washington 3, next, in the War Room.
unidentified
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, let's go to Washington 3.
Joe Kent is Veterans Day.
Let's go to one of our top veterans, Joe Kent.
Joe, a dump overnight.
Walk us through exactly where you stand now, sir.
joe kent
We jumped yesterday.
Right now, we are only down 2.27%.
We are under 6,000 votes, so 588.
Yeah, 500 and 888 is what we're down right now.
5,000, excuse me.
And then we had about 39,000 votes dropped yesterday.
We believe there's somewhere around 54,000, 55,000 votes that remain.
Yeah, 500 and 888 is what we're down right now.
5,000, excuse me.
And then we had about 39,000 votes dropped yesterday.
We believe there's somewhere around 54,000, 55,000 votes that remain.
To be counted, of course, that number is constantly changing and a little bit murky.
We've also got some chain of custody issues that we're looking at very carefully right now at the county level.
So the fight goes on, but we are far from being down.
So we're still feeling pretty optimistic about the numbers.
steve bannon
You cut the lead down by, I think, between 50% and like two-thirds.
Walk us through, how many more dumps, how many more votes out there, and are they all from, are they all game day votes, and are they all from the rural areas?
joe kent
At this point, we believe most of them are game day voters and one of our rural counties still has a fairly significant, we think, just under 10k votes left to dump.
So we're feeling optimistic about that as well.
Most, again, are probably game day voters.
We don't know how many more dumps are going to take place today.
I know that the major counties, they're working today on the holiday and they're going to work tomorrow on this on Saturday.
Now, whether or not they actually update the Secretary of State's website, that's not known yet.
I guess we won't know until they actually do it this afternoon, or don't do it this afternoon.
So it's kind of a standby and wait type of thing.
And again, there's no set number that they dump every single time.
The first day, they dumped very few.
They dumped a lot more yesterday.
So hopefully today, if they do release, it's a significant size, so we know exactly where we're standing.
But again, we're about 5,000 votes away, and whatever, 2.27% down.
That's it.
steve bannon
Okay.

Joe Kent, if I had to be in a foxhole with somebody, I think I would pick you, sir.
So thank you very much for being on here.
joe kent
Thank you very much, Steve.
Happy Veterans Day to you and your family.
steve bannon
Thanks, brother.
Um...
Yeah, I want to give Mo, Captain Bannon, the West Point Army, 101st, and an Iraq veteran.
Great job, Mo.
And Mo's grinding away right now, so I don't want to distract her from her efforts.
I would say chores, but they're not really chores.
They're efforts.
I want to go to Patrick K. O'Donnell.
First off, Mike Lindell.
Make sure you go to MyPillow.com.
Promo code War Room.
You got to buy one, get one free.
He's got everything.
Remember, because of this fight and Lindell has been, I think, the lead and the top fighter, we're going to be back together this weekend on some things that we'll announce later in the day.
Mike is, you know, he's been kicked out everywhere.
Big Box, Walmart, shopping channels, Bed Bath & Beyond, everything there.
He was the biggest seller.
So make sure you go to MyPillow.com, promo code WARROOM.
Do it today!
Patrick K. O'Donnell, you're always here.
Normally we do an expanded effort and you're in studio, but since these elections are still on a knife's edge, we've had to take up a lot of time with that.
Walk me through.
You're, I think, the best combat historian of your generation.
Give me your thoughts on what Veterans Day means to you and the importance of this day.
It's Armistice Day in Europe, the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month.
The guns went silent in World War I. The war to end all wars.
I guess that didn't work out.
Patrick K. O'Donnell.
unidentified
Steve, it's always an honor to be on The War Room with you, and thank you for the, you know, crucial role that you're playing, especially today and all this week.
You know, Veterans Day is a very special day for me because 18 years ago, at exactly this time, I was in Fallujah with the Marine Corps as an Embedded Combat Historian, a volunteer, and we went house to house with those Marines.
And for me, we kind of came full circle.
About 10 years after that day, where we, many of those men and I walked Belleau Wood together, and that was the famous battleground for the Marine Corps in World War I, where they saved Paris.
And the Marine Corps, as well as the 2nd Division and 3rd Division, helped hold off the great German drive on Paris.
And it's that great war, the First World War, where we have our first Armistice Day or Veterans Day.
One year later, President Wilson honors all the veterans of that war, and then it becomes a special day for all veterans in 1954.
steve bannon
How is that informed?
You actually were with a unit, an active unit, in one of the toughest battles of modern American military history, which was Fallujah.
Second Fallujah.
What did you take away from that that informed your writing and informed your relationship and appreciation of veterans?
unidentified
It's one thing to write about military history or war.
It's another to be a participant.
And I was a participant and I was in a platoon and went house to house with 3-1, 3rd Battalion, 1st Marines, Lima Company.
The book that was generated from that story was called We Were One.
It's been on the Commandant's reading list many times in the past 18 years since that time.
And the story is a relic of the Battle of Fallujah.
What I mean by that is It's about eight best friends.
It's about their stories.
Only three of those men came out of Iraq alive.
And it's a story of oral histories that were taken from the battle.
So it was one of the first times that's ever been done.
And I don't think those men would ever, any of us, could really say what we saw and did or how we felt except for the way that the oral histories were recorded during that battle.
And it was house to house.
It was some of the greatest Americans that I've ever seen.
It was, as I called it, the next greatest generation of Americans that really rose to the occasion.
And, you know, 19-, 20-year-old, 21-year-old lance corporals that just did extraordinary things in extremely challenging urban combat, as you mentioned, the toughest battle since Way City, bunkered fighters, men that fought to the death.
It was a Star Wars bar of international insurgents and terrorists.
19 different countries, men fought, you know, that took us to the death.
And we're there to kill Americans.
It was a very powerful experience for me that I'll never forget.
But I'll also never forget men that were wounded that just, you know, leave the aid station to come back to their platoon because they were there to fight for their brothers.
It's a really extraordinary situation to see as an American.
steve bannon
Patrick, how do people get to your writings, and particularly the book, I think we were one, about Fallujah.
How do people get there?
unidentified
I'm on Getter, which is a great platform, at Combat Historian and Twitter.

steve bannon
Whether it's the Revolution, whether it's Korea, World War II, this great, fantastic book about the First World War, about the Tomb of the Unknown, or Fallujah, all of it.
I'm waiting for your Civil War book.
Patrick K. O'Donnell, love you, brother.
Thank you for doing this today.
Thank you, brother.
unidentified
Honor.
steve bannon
Appreciate it.
Just go, just Amazon, Patrick K. O'Donnell.
Anyone you buy, you will love and savor.
Okay, something's very special happening in New Jersey about our veterans, about the remembrance of the Great War.
Let's go to Sabin Howard, the creator, the creative artist, sculptor of really the monument that's going to eventually be in Washington, D.C.
for the First World War.
Sabin, can you give us an update, if you show us the construct of it, how you thought of this, and what's the eventual home going to be, sir?
unidentified
Hey, Steve, good to see you.
We are making a 60-foot-long bronze wall, 38 figures, called A Hero's Journey.
And the story is of a soldier, a father, that leaves home, enters into battle, comes out transformed, and then returns home to hand his helmet to his daughter, which is the next generation, World War II.
And right behind me, you can see our process.
This is Ricky Zambrano, Afghanistan veteran, seven-month combat veteran.
He's a Marine.
So I went directly to the source.
We sculpt from life.
That uniform he's wearing.
Saw combat.
The helmet.
Go on, Ricky.
There you go.
That is real stuff.
We sculpt from that.
And we create something that will be really viscerally powerful for the audience that comes to Pershing Park.
We're going to drop it in that park on September 13th, 2024.
I'm really excited because this is art that actually speaks about the sacred and elevates.
So, I'm on this, been on it since 2015, and we spent about 600 hours per figure.
It's sculpted in a very Renaissance-type style.
It's monumental and heroic, and that's the only way that I see befitting of the veterans that served and moved forward.
steve bannon
The concept of the... It is like from the Renaissance.
It is monumental, epic, and heroic.
We've got a couple of minutes on this side and I want to hold you through the break.
When you think of their journey, because they were so idealistic.
We came into the war late, but we were the deciding factor in the war, and it was insanely bloody for the American participants, who quite frankly, I think, Since the memories of the Civil War had dimmed, had no earthy idea what they were in for as far as the mechanized nature of war in World War I and the trench warfare, in the hero's journey, how do you take, because the idealism, they thought they were fighting to end war forever, right?
And it turned out that they were just the opening act in the bloodiest century in mankind's history.
How does that inform your creative art?
unidentified
It's the beginning of all wars.
It's not the war to end all wars.
It's the beginning.
And I don't perceive this planet ever, you know, unfortunately, wars continue.
It's part of our nature as human beings.
It has informed me in that I went directly to images that I found of veterans, of nurses, of people that We're getting on trains, leaving their families, going off to combat.
And you have to think about this for a second.
Here you have young people, most of them 17, 18, 19 years old, and they get on a ship.
That's the first time they've been in a ship.
And they sail across the Atlantic Ocean, and they enter into this.
It's a war zone.
I mean, I can't even comprehend it.
22 million people dying.
And I believe it's something like, some of these battles, like the Battle of Belleau Wood, you have 75,000 people dying in an afternoon.
And so the more that I looked at the imagery coming out of this war, the more I was struck here in my heart.
And as an artist, I operate from this thought.
I have to use my brain as well to manifest and create a form that's going to give you a really in-depth look into the character and nature of humanity.
And so each of these scenes that I've created is meant to transfix the viewer.
So when you walk along the wall and you are taking this walk that's 60 feet long, it's as if you're in a movie, except you're looking at a sculpture.
And that sculpture has a great deal of monumentality to it.
And so that energy of all these figures that are interlocked and connected together will pass on to the viewer.
steve bannon
Saban, hang on for one second.
We're taking a short commercial break.

Okay, make sure, tpusa.com slash warren, make sure you go there now.
This is turning point to get signed up for the, I think, 16 December, this America Fest.
You want to be there.
Candace Owens is going to be there.
Tucker Carlson, myself, of course, Charlie Kirk and Jack Posobiec, many, many others.
Aaron Beatty is going to be three days of incredible conferences, talks, speeches, workshops, all of it.
You do not want to miss it out in Metro Phoenix.
It's going to be incredible.
Also, federal judge outlawed, they said unconstitutional on the trillion dollars of debt.
Find out how this all came about.
Charlie Kirk, if you go there, tpusa.com slash war room, you can get his book, College Scamby.
You understand the trillion dollars they were trying to shove off to your shoulders, and they're still fighting to do it.
This is how they bribed these kids to vote on last Tuesday.
A federal judge, I think in Texas, ruled it was unconstitutional.
So a big, long fight there.
I want to go back to Sabin Howard, this very moving remembrance of World War One because you don't have one, which is pretty shocking.
Sabin, I want to go back through and have you walk the audience through both the monumental nature of it.
It's 60 feet and you take the hero's journey all the way through.
But what makes it so powerful is the incredible detail, the attention to detail in each aspect of it that really makes it just jump out at you.
Walk us through how you do both.
How do you keep the broad sweep of it with the minute detail?
unidentified
Well, so I brought the maquette here.
This is a five-foot model that went through the Commission of Fine Arts.
And starting on this side, You have the father leaving his daughter, and then leaving his wife, and then here he is, entering the battle, leading the charge.
And the next figure is the shell-shocked figure.
And the very last figure is him giving the helmet to the daughter.
So, as you can tell, there's a lot of figures here, and the detail, as Steve has mentioned, is at a very, very high level, because the way that I sculpted I'm traditional.
I don't go and look at things with a computer or photographs that work directly from people.
And it's, I call it drawing on steroids.
That's what sculpture is.
Where you have to look at what you're seeing and then you have to transform that into an art form.
And so it's this application of clay and diagramming and drawing on the clay itself that is all about like pushing out into space.
So these figures here are also thought of and conceived in the same manner.
They're busting out of this plane.
So I went through a commission of fine arts and they tried to minimize the sculpture as much as possible.
So we went the opposite direction.
We went along with that, but then we took the figures and we enlarged them so that they break the plane of the ground.
So for example, the shell-shocked figure right here.
Which is the central figure.
He's the protagonist in this sculpture.
He's become six foot eight.
But the background is smaller than him.
So it's this sense of you cannot contain this energy.
This character and all these soldiers are portrayed in a way that is incredibly monumental and heroic.
And I use models.
I look at these models.
There are heroes unto themselves.
For example, the bodybuilders that I use, like Jessica Falborn, or Ricky Zambrano, who was a Marine for seven years.
These are people that are heroic in nature.
If you look at them, they're not regular people.
sabin howard
And so I'm not using people that are not of the correct stature to portray something that is so critical and important to our country.
steve bannon
How did, we got a couple of minutes left.
How are we, you've worked, you've worked on this, what, 10 years of your life, 11 years of your life by the time from the original concept to the installation.
How is it that given it was the war to end all wars and a massive conflict for us, how is it that we haven't had this done in 1932, 1935?
Why is it in, why is it 2024 instead of 1924?
Why is it 2024 instead of 1924?
unidentified
Well, the reason that it happened now is because I think there's this man, Edwin Fountain, ran Centennial Commission, and he realized that this is a war that's actually affected us on a societal and cultural level.
It's changed the very fabric of how we perceive ourselves as human beings.
So, prior to this, there was a sense of divine nature and order in the universe.
And you end with a war that is so catastrophic on a mental front for humanity, where 22 million people die.
Is there really a God?
And there's this way now that begins then, where humanity sees itself as alienated, as isolated, as if you have this sense of like, you know, the end of an era where there's a sense of order and the beginning of modern culture.
Now, this is where we are today, direct result of this war.
And so, if you think about it, okay, 116,000 people die, soldiers die from our country.
Now that's a punch on the nose in relation to what happened in Europe, where 22 million people died.
And you have the stock market crash.
So historically, other things usurped what was something very significant.
And from my perspective, I'm making something that when people go to this memorial, And they're, like, fascinated by the actual dramatic and dynamic nature of the kinetic energy moving forward.
They will then take this energy and go back home and start to do some research on their own and want to know more about the war.
And I think that is my task.
That is what my mission is.
steve bannon
Your task and purpose.
Sabin, we've got about a minute.
