steve bannon
This is what you're fighting for.
I mean, every day you're out there.
What they're doing is blowing people off.
If you continue to look the other way and shut up, then the oppressors, the authoritarians, get total control and total power.
Because this is just like in Arizona.
This is just like in Georgia. It's another element that backs them into a quarter and shows their lies and misrepresentations.
This is why this audience is gonna have to get engaged.
As we've told you, this is the fight.
unidentified
All this nonsense, all this spin, they can't handle the truth.
War Room. Battleground.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
We're interrupting programs to make the following announcement.
It is understood that in accordance with arrangements between the three great powers, An official announcement will be broadcast by the Prime Minister at 3 o'clock tomorrow.
In view of this fact, tomorrow Tuesday will be treated as Victory in Europe Day.
After nearly six long years, the war in Europe is finally over.
May 8th, 1945 is declared Victory in Europe Day.
Spontaneous celebrations erupt throughout the world.
French soldiers pick me up, hoist me on their shoulders, and carry me down the Champs-Elysees shouting, Vive la France!
Vive l'Amérique!
After four years of service in five countries, U.S. Army nurse June Wandry is on furlough in Paris on VE Day.
We are in the heart of Paris.
The crowd is nearly hysterical.
Everyone is out on the streets, planes zooming overhead in huge formations.
All the important brass are there. The gall.
And here I am.
A very great crowd has collected already.
Thousands upon thousands of people gathered to share this historic day with the King and Queen.
Listen to the crowd.
The last communique of World War II is in.
The Russian people were told for the first time of Germany's unconditional surrender.
Our rejoicing is sobered and subdued.
by a supreme consciousness of the terrible price we have paid to rid the world of Hitler and his evil band.
Let us not forget, my fellow Americans, our victory is but half won.
The West is free, but the East is still in bondage to the treacherous tyranny of the Japanese.
When the last Japanese division has surrendered, Unconditionally.
Then only will our fighting job be done.
steve bannon
The terrible price that was paid. It's 8 May 2023 in the year of our Lord, Monday, 78 years ago.
Today, in fact, the instrument of surrender of the German army was signed at 2200 German time, sort of been roughly this time now, and it went to effect at 2300.
That would be May 9th. In Moscow, tomorrow will be Victory Day.
by the Russian people.
The terrible price we paid.
Hundreds of millions of dead in the greatest generation, in the greatest war of mankind's history.
And what lessons have we taken away today?
We're going to have Naomi Wolf, Julie Kelly, Todd Benson on the southern border.
It's what would the men and women that sacrificed everything?
What were the men and women that sacrificed everything?
78 years ago and the years leading up to it, what would they say today but the state of our country, the state of our institutions, the state of our institutions.
I want to go first to Carrie Lake.
She's in London. Carrie, you've been over there for a while.
It's the, it's VE Day in Europe.
You were there through the weekends at the coordination of, you know, it hasn't been done in 70 years.
Most importantly, you were with Viktor Orban and the team in Hungary at CPAC. And of course, Axios today had this massive article that said that Hungary's actually leading the way for the Republican populist nationalist movement.
Your thoughts on what you've learned and what you've told people on your European trip, man?
kari lake
Well, Steve, thank you for having me.
I was honored to be part of the CPAC event that was happening for the second year in Hungary.
This is a country that has put the citizens first and has put their rights and liberties first and protected the family.
Our countries are only as strong as our families, and when our families disintegrate, our countries disintegrate.
Viktor Orban has done an amazing job since taking power.
And I was thrilled to actually be able to meet him and talk to him for quite a bit of time about how he has gone about bringing people together, working with folks here to make sure that they are helping the country and helping the citizens here.
You know, if you listen to the globalist media, you'd swear he was a dictator.
It's a bunch of lies.
And I was I'm so proud of what I saw in Hungary and how the people are treated and how the streets are safe.
You feel so safe walking down the street day or night, no matter where you are in any part of town.
They're putting safety and security first.
It's really wonderful. And then we moved on to London and we got to experience the coronation after 70 years of a new king.
And it witnessed history here with our allies in England.
And you know, obviously we broke free from the shackles of the monarchy 245, 46 years ago.
But I'll be honest, I love the fact that England has culture and they've maintained that culture.
It's not for us, the monarchy isn't, but it was really wonderful to be here for a part of history and to be with the great, polite, wonderful people of England.
And to be here on a very important day such as VE Day today, it was really quite something to see that today.
So we are in a world where we are experiencing Countries that are fighting for their people or we're about to lose our countries with a globalist agenda that's being shoved down our throats.
And we are not for that.
We're standing up over the next couple of years to fight that.
steve bannon
You know, we're going to have Naomi Wolf talk about the institutions of things like CDC and what has basically misled us and let us down, World Health Organization, all this, these institutions.
Many of these, most of these created post-war.
And one is NATO and our alliance, obviously, with the British people and the French people.
You made news in a lot of news as really the first political person of any stature.
You went to Europe, you were in Budapest, and you said, hey, we've got to bring this Ukraine war to an end.
And one of the ways I think we can bring it to an end is cut off the money to Ukraine in the budget process.
We're on the eve of this massive negotiation.
Ukraine's still fully funded.
But you made a lot of news in that.
Give us your assessment.
What's your assessment of that, and how did it play in Europe?
Because I can tell you by reading The Guardian and The Times of London, heads blew up.
kari lake
Well, good. You know what?
That's fine with me. I'm a mother and I'm appalled by what's happening.
I want to see peace in this world.
And apparently the people who want peace are the bad guys now?
Since when? You know what?
The military industrial complex can shove it because the mothers of the world are tired of sending their children off to war.
You know what we saw back when they lied to us about Iraq and they said there were weapons of mass destruction?
It was a bunch of hogwash.
And we sat there and we listened to them and we believed them.
I don't believe what the mainstream media is telling us anymore.
And I don't think I'm alone, Steve.
I frankly don't believe the people of America believe it.
And we're tired of listening to them peddle lies to us.
and force us into conflicts and wars all over this world while our own country is suffering.
In two and a half, three days, we are about to see the invasion on our southern border grow to epic proportions.
Talk about heads blowing up.
Our heads will blow up when we see what happens at our southern border.
And we need to stand strong and say, we're not going to take this.
We're not going to send hundreds of billions Overseas to start World War III while our own country is being invaded right now.
And I'm a mother.
I'm going to stand up and fight for it.
I don't care what they say about me.
I don't care what the media says about me.
I don't care what, you know, Fox News, CNN, MSNBC says.
We need to stand up right now while we still have a voice and speak out for what's happening in this world and save our country because we're losing it.
steve bannon
I was on calls over the weekend and people were telling me that in places like Arizona, some of the county officials saying, hey, there's going to be a thousand per day overage they can't even handle.
They're just going to dump into the streets because that's the most humane way they're going to do it.
But in Arizona, it's going to be overrun.
kari lake
What say you, ma'am? I heard 500...right now in the Yuma sector, we have 180 % capacity.
We're way over capacity on what we can handle with illegal immigrants pouring in.
And they said now it's going to go to 570%, 600%.
We are looking at hundreds of thousands of people storming our country.
You know, Steve, we don't have to change a country to overtake a country.
We don't have to have a war with bullets, with bombs anymore.
If they just pour people in illegally, they can completely change our country.
We are losing what it means to be America.
And I'm not ashamed to say that.
It is the absolute truth.
And if we don't stand up and say enough is enough, we've got to stop this nonsense, then we're going to lose our country.
And so we've got very little time.
Frankly, I don't know if we have months or a year to stop this nonsense, but we have to start speaking out against it.
And I don't see anybody who's willing to really speak truthfully about what's happening at our southern border.
It's not just, where are these people going?
Who's putting them up?
Who's paying for their housing and their food?
It's our own country that's paying for it at the expense of our taxpaying citizens who can't even afford their rent, who can't even afford to pay for their heating and air conditioning, who can't afford their groceries.
But we're paying for people to come across by the hundreds of thousands illegally?
Come on. We've got to wake up people.
This is not a Democrat Republican issue.
This is saving America and we're on the verge of losing it.
And if I have to be the person who is ripped apart by the fake news, I'm okay with that.
I'm willing to speak out to save our country.
We've got to get Donald Trump back in office.
We've got to stop this nonsense.
And for starters, we have to stop this war that's starting over in Ukraine that is about to spread into World War III. We cannot let that happen.
They're on the verge of letting that happen.
steve bannon
Kerry, how do people get more information?
I know it's late there and we appreciate you staying up.
How do people follow particularly the case and where we stand with removing Hobbs, the illegitimate fake governor of Arizona?
kari lake
Where do people go? Well, it's interesting because it is very late here, as you can tell by the bags under my eyes.
But I was just on my conference call with the judge who, as you know, the Arizona Supreme Court has ordered the lower court judge to take back up our case.
And come this Friday, the judge will decide if he will take it up.
If he does take our case up on the signature verification, next Wednesday and Thursday we will have a new court case regarding that portion of our election case.
And I just ask everybody out there to pray for us.
We deserve this case and we deserve, frankly, some justice when it comes to our elections.
You can reach me at kerrylake.com.
You can find out more about our case.
And you can go to kerrylake.com slash unafraid to get a pre-order of my new book, which documents a lot of what we've been through together as Arizonans in this huge campaign and what happened even after the campaign.
steve bannon
Kerry Lake, honored. Thank you for staying up late.
I appreciate it. I heard the trip has been unbelievable.
So thank you very much for sharing.
unidentified
Appreciate it. Thank you.
steve bannon
Kerry Lake live from London.
We got Naomi Wolf.
I have Julie Kelly on deck.
Naomi, I've got to ask you, particularly on the 78th anniversary of VE Day, given what occurred in that horrible situation, the institutions that came up afterwards, there was a major development.
Very much driven by you and the work of your team, against all odds.
The CDC director either resigned or was removed, but somehow was pushed out.
And what shocked me over the weekend was the media action, and I understand there's so much going on.
I mean, I've never seen a news cycle like this, but this is a massive development because it cuts to the core of what the problem is in the nation, and that is these institutions that no longer serve the American people.
Walk me through, the CDC, you know, Your thoughts about this, and why did the media downplay this, I think, all weekend when this is probably the most important thing that happened this weekend?
naomi wolf
Certainly. Well, I think, as you know, that the posse had a great deal to do with this historic event.
Just to reprise for those who didn't catch it when I was last on your show, Amy Kelly issued a bombshell Report, Report 69, that showed that there's an eight-page document released in April in the Pfizer documents that confirms that FDA,
Pfizer, and Rochelle Walensky knew that more than half of the moms who were pregnant suffered adverse events, or the babies suffered adverse events, including 51 spontaneous abortions or miscarriages, and also that About 20 % of the babies had serious adverse events, including being hospitalized, from drinking their vaccinated mother's breast milk.
And the babies of the vaccinated moms also suffered two years ago, what is now being confirmed independently by nurse midwives and maternal fetal medicine specialists that I've interviewed, that they're seeing grow as a result in their practices, which is newborn babies go home and then they're rushed to the hospital because their tiny lungs are leaking air.
So this is in the Pfizer documents.
The Pfizer documents, this eight-page kind of summary, which you can see, it's on dailycloud.io, also narrates Some of the spontaneous abortions or miscarriages or the premature babies, including babies who died, were exposed to the vaccine transplacentally.
That's Pfizer's words.
Now, three days after this report summarizing the whole development of the vaccine up until April 20th, 2021, this went to the FDA, confidential.
dr naomi wolf
It went to the CDC. Three days later, Dr.
naomi wolf
Walensky held a White House press conference, a big one, at which she swore that the vaccine was safe and effective for pregnant women, and she recommended that pregnant women get vaccinated.
She said there's no bad time to get vaccinated before you have your baby, while you're pregnant, after you've had your baby.
And this document also shows that women are exposed to the vaccine, in Pfizer's words, before they're even pregnant, through probably sexual intercourse with vaccinated men, which is elsewhere in the Pfizer documents confirmed as exposure, also through skin contact and inhalation.
So these are things that no one told the women of America.
And in the wake of this very viral report by Amy Kelly, my video, which reached a million people, five days later, Dr.
Walensky resigned. So I don't know that we're the only people.
There's been other great reporting, including by Trial Site News, Sonya Elijah, on this same horrific document.
But it was, you know, the next thing would have been for her to be answering questions in Congress, specifically, did you know that more than half of the moms suffered adverse events?
dr naomi wolf
Did you know that 51 babies died?
naomi wolf
Why did you three days later tell the women of America that it was safe and effective?
And subsequently also there was a giant propaganda campaign to get women pregnant.
steve bannon
This is what I want to get to, is that we had Natalie Winters on last hour with Kash Patel.
We're talking about the Hunter Biden situation, Comer, Wednesday's make or break for him to at least start to show some documents.
I got Julie Kelly following you on the top investigative reporters.
People want to ask why You have Fauci, but why are we not pursuing this?
Why are there seem to be no investigations?
Why are no one before a microphone before the American people?
Why is all this coming from the great work in this amazing book and Amy Kelly and Daily Cloud and yourself and putting up independent research?
Why does there seem to be no institutional Right now, investigation to get to the bottom of this.
I think people have driven crazy when they see, like, Report 69 to say, how can this happen?
We're now in the third year of this.
Why, in your opinion, is this not institutionally starting to be confronted?
dr naomi wolf
These are really good questions.
You know, I ask them myself.
naomi wolf
I mean, of course, we have our team, George Smith and his 10 plaintiffs in Ohio moving ahead, suing Pfizer.
It is, you know, it's not baffling to me.
dr naomi wolf
Both sides take the money, right?
Both Republicans and Democrats in Congress take money from Pfizer.
The media, over 70 % of its ad budget on television is from pharmaceutical giants like Pfizer.
naomi wolf
So, you know, we've talked about the billion dollars in the CARES Act that went to all the major news outlets.
So it's left to independents like us to even report this.
But I do have good news for the posse.
dr naomi wolf
Finally, and I hope this will ease their stress a little bit, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton did say last Monday that he would investigate three major pharmaceutical companies for deceptive practices, arguing that they may have misrepresented the effectiveness of vaccines and the likelihood of becoming infected after receiving a vaccine.
naomi wolf
And there are two more kind of major paragraphs, but basically he's going after Pfizer.
dr naomi wolf
Or he's opening an investigation, and he's doing it under a cause of action that our 250 volunteer lawyers also said is a really good one, which is that Texas, and every state has them, false advertising, deceptive practices, that Pfizer and other pharmaceutical companies, he's going after Moderna and J&J as well, lied to people to get them to do this.
And his quote is very strong.
If any company illegally took advantage of consumers, During this period or compromised people's safety to increase their profits, they will be held responsible, he said in a statement.
If public health policy was developed on the basis of flawed or misleading research, and we have 500 pages showing that it was, the public must know.
The catastrophic effects of the pandemic and subsequent interventions forced on our country and citizens deserve intense scrutiny, and we are pursuing any hint of wrongdoing to the fullest.
So this is progress.
And I'm in touch back channels with people who are getting this book, these documents that the War Room Daily Cloud 3500 medical and scientific experts have put together, which is exhibit A of exactly what Attorney General Paxton is looking for.
steve bannon
I've only got a couple of minutes, but I want to ask something about the confirmation of the next CDC director.
What are you prepared to do?
What are you prepared to ask of the War Room Posse?
What are you prepared to ask of all the research you've done, Amy Kelly, a great team?
Should not there be a confrontation about who's the next CDC director, about what's gone on in the last couple of years with the CDC as an institution, ma'am?
naomi wolf
Of course there should.
I mean, right now we're in a very ugly situation in which I heard, again, backchannels, but good backchannels, that Dr.
Walensky was offered a gig with the Clinton Foundation.
I don't think that's been announced yet, but that doesn't surprise me.
dr naomi wolf
And literally a day or two after she resigned, Chelsea Clinton is in the media announcing a big get every child vaccinated campaign that she's going to be the face of.
naomi wolf
So they're not quitting.
They're not stopping. There should be a confrontation because the risk is this compromised White House will just put another evildoer right into the still warm position that she has vacated and worse things could happen, right? But, you know, honestly, Steve, I don't have a lot of hopes that at a federal level we can the kinds of questions to be asked, the kinds of investigations.
You know, the Justice Department is compromised.
dr naomi wolf
Who is going to go after these people at the federal level?
naomi wolf
It would be nice to have the theater of hard questions.
You know, Dr. Walensky dragged back from, you know, Oaxaca or wherever she's vacationing to answer some questions and to squirm a little bit under the lights.
But we've seen how that goes.
dr naomi wolf
It's a slap on the wrist. Nothing serious happens that route.
naomi wolf
That's why I'm excited about Attorney General Paxton and the 14 letters we sent I'm excited about George Smith in Ohio because, you know, I really believe it's only at the local level that we're going to get action and decent judges and judges like the judge who said, no, I'm not going to conceal these documents for 75 years.
dr naomi wolf
The federal level is compromised.
naomi wolf
I mean, we can still call our officials, but we should, you know, have set expectations.
steve bannon
Naomi, how do people get the book?
How do they get to the website?
And I know they want to go to work.
Where do they go on Daily Cloud to volunteer and be part of this?
naomi wolf
So the upper right-hand corner, you should be able to see a form that shows you where to volunteer.
You can also order the book.
We now have a new printing of another 2,000.
I think it's the fourth printing.
dr naomi wolf
And they go in 48 hours.
naomi wolf
So, you know, order yours.
On Amazon, Amazon is trying all kinds of ways to stop us from selling the book, but we are selling it.
And please, please, please order it, give it to your loved ones.
dr naomi wolf
And honestly, you know, just help us, like literally help us financially, as well as help us, you know, by sharing the word, sharing the information, because these lawsuits are getting...
naomi wolf
You know, there are certain key moments where they're very, very expensive, and as George Smith moves forward, there's going to be another big bill, and you've always come through.
unidentified
We need your help. We will come through.
steve bannon
By the way, the local level is very important, but we've got to figure out this federal level.
Naomi Wolf, thank you very much.
Honored to have you on here. Good to be here.
When Amy Wolf talks about DOJ corruption, I think Julie Kelly can tell us a thing or two about that.
It's absolutely stunning. Julie, I've only got a couple minutes on this side.
I'm holding you through the break. I need to hear the story.
78 years ago today, VE Day, very special day in the Kelly family, is it not, ma'am?
julie kelly
Well, not in the Kelly family because that's my husband's family, but it was so touching to watch those scenes that you played at the beginning.
Because my grandfather, Army Captain John Copeland from Louisiana, met my grandmother, Army nurse Lois Hansen from Nebraska at Fort Leonard Wood at the end mid-1944, fall of 1944.
Both deployed to Europe.
1945, he proposed to her over there.
They were married in September of 1945 at the American Church in Paris.
I went to Berlin where my father was conceived, came back to America and helped build this country into what it is today.
And I think about them a lot when I cover what's happening to this country right now.
So I just wanted to tell that little story, important story for me and remembering, you know, what all the people who did make sacrifices, the ultimate sacrifices to save the world from tyranny.
steve bannon
And here we are now. By the way, what would they think of where we are today?
We're going to take a short break. That's the greatest generation.
Meet in Fort Leonard Wood, I think out in Missouri.
Deploy to Europe. The greatest generation wins the greatest war, and then they're married right afterwards in September 1945.
Incredible story, Julie.
Incredible story. Stick around.
Naomi Wolf just said the DOJ is totally compromised.
This is on the situation with the CCP virus, the vaccine, all of it.
She's even saying as tough as she is, hey, we got to go to the state level, the local level, because DOJ is totally corrupt.
Julie Kelly's going to tell you about that next in The War Room.
unidentified
It's Stephen K. Bannon.
and you'll be the first to know when.
steve bannon
Julie Kelly, Citizens Free Press, which is part of the show prep for War Room, you're up all weekend with these screaming headlines that Cain puts up there.
Julie Kelly says Trump's going to be in prison, that Trump's going to be indicted four times, that Trump's going to be put in jail.
On the very weekend that it breaks, that Trump is up by seven or eight points on the Washington Post ABC poll leading Biden.
Biden's in collapse. Trump's ascendant.
MAGA's ascendant. As much as they try to hit us and call us the insurrection party, the insurrectionists, if they call us the insurrection, the insurrectionists are ascendant.
Why all of a sudden is Julie Kelly coming at us that Trump's going to be indicted four separate times, Trump's going to prison?
julie kelly
Ma'am. I don't know if I said four separate times, but I definitely said, and we talked about this Friday, was it Friday, Thursday, that the conviction of four Proud Boys on that seditious conspiracy charge really accelerates Trump's legal jeopardy related to January 6th.
Why? I explained in my pieces, and I've explained for months.
Because the government has made Donald Trump a key figure in that case.
During opening, or excuse me, closing arguments last week, I was there in the courtroom, the assistant US attorney, the first video clip he played was not of the Proud Boys.
It was of Donald Trump's appearance in the September 2020 presidential debate when, after being goaded twice by Joe Biden to denounce the Proud Boys, Donald Trump said, Proud Boys Stand Back and Stand By.
That has been a common theme throughout the case, the four-month trial, closing arguments, and now you see this massive sentencing memo that was put out last week in another seditious conspiracy conviction, the Oath Keepers.
So this is why I've said I believe that Trump was going to be charged before this on obstruction, conspiracy, tampering with witnesses, evidence, etc.
Not because there's evidence of this.
I need to make that clear.
Not because it's true.
Not because it's reality.
Because evidence, the rule of law, due process, things like that in this DEC legal and judicial circle of hell, I call it, none of that matters.
The only thing that matters is the weaponization of laws that now building this massive case with all these defendants, including the Oath Keepers and Proud Boys tied to Trump, Building this massive case with the end result being a multi-count criminal indictment against Donald Trump by Special Counsel Jack Smith.
steve bannon
Julie, you also had another thing.
I think I got the link on Cain's Citizens Free Press.
You talked about the jury instructions.
And nobody's into the detail that you are, but the jury instructions are so vague.
I mean, how could the guys not be?
How could a juror not find them guilty of seditious conspiracy?
Walk us through those jury instructions.
julie kelly
I will, but I want to back up first.
This is a post-Civil War statute.
It is extremely rare to ever be used against American citizens.
It was designed to stop those loyal to the Confederacy from overthrowing the American government after the Civil War.
The last time DOJ tried to prosecute seditious conspiracy was a case in Michigan in 2010, and the federal judge laughed it out of court.
But here now we've got 14 convictions, mostly guilty verdicts in trial, a couple of plea deals.
But it's so rare because it's so intentionally vague.
So what they had to prove is that these defendants tried To interfere with the execution of a law of the United States by force or to hinder, delay, or interfere in that law.
So there were two different equally vague jury instructions that were given.
The key was, well, you have to do it by force.
Well, then they said later in the jury instructions, but we don't have to prove that they did it by force or that they attempted or that they actually used force.
Because they didn't. How do you use force when you bring no weapons?
How do you use force when you've got 20 some odd random guys who don't even know each other?
Didn't assault police officers.
In several cases walk through open doors where police were.
So this is the sort of vague instructions that are given.
Thank you to the federal judges who allow this.
But it's the weaponization of two federal statutes, which is seditious conspiracy Obstruction of an official proceeding is 1512c2 that is a post Enron tampering with evidence witness at evidence statute.
This is how the Department of Justice is criminalizing successfully political dissent.
steve bannon
Julie, also you've got the situation in Georgia and the scuttlebutt around the courthouses.
That's been the reason she came out and said it's going to be August.
It's because Jack Smith's going to move first.
You've got the Mar-a-Lago situation.
Now they say they've got a whistleblower that's working with them.
Is it your belief, and this was so shocking about the Citizens Free Press, it was like five headlines, and you know, you mentioned Julie Kelly, and everybody goes, oh my God, she's the expert.
So when Julie's saying this, and she's unflappable.
Do you believe, given the polls from the Washington Post, that this lawfare by DOJ, if proceeded along the path that you, Julie Kelly, that have been the closest to doing the investigations on all this and the reporting on all this, will put us in the middle of a constitutional crisis by late summer of this year, ma'am? I suspect so, and I think that's exactly what the Biden regime and this Department of Justice wants to happen.
julie kelly
Look, you don't have a press conference last Friday with Merrick Garland, FBI Director Chris Wray, Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco, Head of the National Security Division Matt Olson, DC US Attorney Matthew Graves, the heaviest hitters out of the Department of Justice.
They give this press conference with the top officials So they can brag about what?
Another conviction by a D.C. jury in a city that voted 93 % for Joe Biden?
No. They did it as a warning shot to Trump and his team that we got these convictions, we made Donald Trump a key figure in this, in the government's case, and this is just one more step in how we get to you, Donald Trump, with if not seditious conspiracy, obstruction, conspiracy, other charges.
That, by the way, also are punishable by up to 20 years in prison and have justified pretrial detention for those who have been accused, charged with those crimes, not convicted.
So in my mind, it is a constitutional crisis already.
It has been not just for Donald Trump, but for hundreds of these defendants who have been selectively prosecuted by Matthew Graves, the D.C. U.S. attorney, who is now seeking outrageous sentences Not just for people who've already been convicted, but in these particular cases, seditious conspiracy.
I mean, this is something that's never happened in American history.
And the fact that he's not been reined in, held accountable.
These judges are completely out of control.
They're rubber stamps for the Department of Justice.
And so this is the very dangerous territory waters that Donald Trump is going to be walking into once Special Counsel Jack Smith hands down his criminal indictments.
Not just for January 6th, but also expected related to the handling of classified documents.
steve bannon
It's shocking when you had Naomi Wolf and you back to back and you see what DOJ's not doing in protecting Big Pharma and you see what they're doing to govern American citizens.
Your grandparents who sacrificed everything To free the world from tyranny, what they would think today.
It absolutely is soul-crushing to think how we've let down and let these institutions rot in front of us.
Julie Kelly, your reporting is amazing.
And I've got to tell Cain, when you put up four headlines in a row with Julie Kelly's name in it, you're going to cause some action.
You got my attention.
Julie, where do people go to get your amazing reporting, ma'am?
julie kelly
All my work can be found at American Greatness and Greatness.com.
I'm constantly posting motions like the jury instructions, et cetera, sentencing memos at Twitter, Julie underscore Kelly, too.
Also, Truth Social, Julie underscore Kelly.
And Steve, just thank you again for bringing all this to your audience because the conservative media has really dropped the ball in covering all of this.
And when Trump is indicted for these charges, the conservative media establishment conservative Khan Inc., the national reviews of the world, are going to be totally blindsided and have no idea how to catch up on how we got to that point.
But I want to thank you for covering all my work.
steve bannon
They're going to be cheering. Look, our job is easy.
It's basically to get a platform and just allow Julie Kelly to do it.
Your investigations have been incredible.
I mean, nothing short of incredible.
Julie, thank you, and thank your grandparents.
Tell your dad or your mom.
Just incredible. Just thank you.
Thank you so much. Great honor to have you on here.
julie kelly
Thank you. Thanks so much.
steve bannon
The next story you're not going to believe.
So let me play.
We're not ready to go. We don't have the cold open.
Can I just go right to her? Okay.
We don't have the cold open.
Let me go to Laura Loomer.
We had a short cold open of her.
She's totally indefatigable.
One of the toughest hombres I've ever met.
Laura, explain to our audience exactly what is happening in Washington, D.C. and who is participating in this.
Even as we speak, you're live from this location.
unidentified
Tell us. Yeah, so as you can see behind me, and I'll pan it so that you can see the letters, I'm outside of the International Spy Museum in Washington, D.C. right now.
Where there is a secret election summit taking place.
I'm talking about all the election rigors, the most notorious secretaries of state and election officials who were tied to groups like CEIR, Center for Election Innovation and Research.
That's David Becker's organization.
Of course, he's the founder of ERIC. They are here today and tomorrow for a summit, and they're discussing the 2024 election.
And so I'm here in D.C. confronting all of these supervisors of elections and secretaries of state.
For those of you who may not know what CEIR is, CEIR is the group that received $69.5 million from Mark Zuckerberg in 2020 to influence our elections.
And they're back at it again.
After resigning in disgrace about a month and a half ago from Eric, the CEO and the founder of this organization, David Becker, CEIR, is hosting this conference for elections officials where they're discussing things like You know, oh, these election deniers.
Of course, they're referring to people like Trump supporters who they think are conspiracy theorists, and they're calling us fascists.
And today, I actually confronted Congressman Jamie Raskin, who was their keynote speaker.
So this is absolutely not a nonpartisan— Hold it, hold it, Laura.
steve bannon
Hang on a second, Bloomberg.
Hang on. You're telling me the Republican officials, elected Republican officials, that are with secretaries of state and have authority put in by Republican voters are actually at a conference funded by the group of Eric N. Zuckerberg and the Jamie Raskin One of the greatest Trump haters, one of the greatest MAGA haters in all Congress.
And look, we pray for Congressman Raskin because of his cancer, but you're telling me he's the keynote speaker where you have Republican officials?
Ma'am, is that what's going on?
unidentified
Not only was he the keynote speaker for their luncheon this afternoon, but he spoke side-by-side Republican official Brad Raffensperger, who we know was at the center of all the controversy in Georgia.
And so you can see him a little red in the face right now and a little out of breath because I literally just chased Brad Raffensperger down the street and ambushed him in the hotel about why he was attending this I had a conference with a Soros-tied individual who was receiving funding from Mark Zuckerberg.
And, of course, he's a total coward, and so he asked for an escort, and then he ran away into the elevator, and, of course, I chased him.
They actually had undercover police officers who were assigned to watch me today.
So I've been out in the sun all day long.
There's no media here.
Out here chasing these election officials with my cell phone, and they have two undercover police officers who are just monitoring me and following me everywhere I go.
And, you know, telling these election officials where I am.
But someone has to do it, because what is the Republican Party doing?
They're going to steal the election again.
steve bannon
But hang on.
You're telling me, Raffensperger, of all the things that we're conspiracy theorists, they're there with the Zuckerberg and the Eric guys and Raskin, and they're there in the open public.
And I understand you can't get into the conference, but you're saying, Raffensperger, what other Republican officials do you see walk in there?
unidentified
So you had Bill Gates from Maricopa County who was involved right now in the litigation with regards to Carrie Lake and the contestant of her election.
And so I confronted Bill Gates.
If you go to my Rumble channel, I just posted that video about 30 minutes or so ago.
He is one of the supervisors in Maricopa County.
He's the one that the Washington Post just wrote this glorified puff piece about, oh, we need to feel so sorry for him because he has PTSD. because of people who believe the election was stolen.
Adrian Fontes, who's a Democrat, of course, he just took over for Katie Hobbs as secretary of state.
I have some training, given the fact that I have a background doing undercover journalism.
Some individuals here who are also tracking these election officials.
We just had somebody confront and ambush Adrian Fontes and ask him about why he is calling Republican voters MAGA fascists.
These are people who are supposed to be overseeing our elections, and they're calling Trump supporters and Republicans fascists.
And you can't get inside the spy museum because it's closed.
So the only option was to, you know, literally book a room in the same hotel as them so they could kick them out of the hotel and then chase them outside as they're entering and leaving this conference.
steve bannon
Laura, where do people go to get all this content, your confrontations with these?
This, to me, is a blockbuster story because it proves, hey, you're not a conspiracy theorist.
They're all meeting together in a Zuckerberg-sponsored event.
Where do people go, Laura?
unidentified
So people can go.
I'm posting the videos on my Twitter.
I'm back on Twitter at Laura Loomer.
You can also go to my Rumble channel, just Laura Loomer.
It's on my YouTube as well.
But subscribe to my sub stack, lauraloomer.substack.com.
It's free to subscribe. And I sent you the videos.
You should have them. So hopefully you guys can attach them to this video.
But these are the people right now who all of the Arizona officials who are in the middle of the Cary Lake lawsuit are here.
How inappropriate. How are they supposed to be overseeing an election and be fair going into 2024 when they're hanging out with people who are overseeing the impeachment of Donald Trump and the J6 witch hunt?
Jamie Raskin was the impeachment manager.
These people are not nonpartisan, as they claim.
This is a partisan election rigging conference.
steve bannon
Laura Loomer, hopefully get you back on tomorrow.
We'll get all the stuff in rumble and put it up.
Amazing work. And once again, you've proven you're indefatigable, ma'am.
Thank you very much for being on War Room today.
Incredible. Incredible story.
unidentified
Thanks for having me on. We have to protect the election for Donald Trump.
steve bannon
Thank you. Thank you, ma'am.
And I think what Loomer's proving is they're just up in your grill.
They're not no shame, but they're just going to be up in your face.
They're going to do it at the Spy Museum.
It's right across, right down the street from the Treasury Department.
It's in the heart of Washington, D.C. And she's been there all day.
And you gotta ask where other conservative media is.
This is a massive story that he's rigging these elections.
Okay, we got Todd Benzman.
I think we got him by phone. Todd, this is what everybody's talking about.
Mayorkas said today on MSNBC, and he said it five times in a row, Todd Benzman, that you're wrong, that the border is not open, the border is secure.
unidentified
What say you, sir? He is lying.
I heard him say the other day in an interview in a question from Lee Bradley, why are you letting immigrants into the country on personal recognizance papers?
I interviewed them and saw that happen.
And he said, that's not happening.
We are 42-ing everybody back.
Everybody is being 42-ed back.
But I have a dozen videos.
I've done myself interviews with these people being released into the country after crossing illegally just a week or two ago.
So it's a complete lie.
Everything that comes out of that guy's mouth is a lie.
Hang on.
steve bannon
I know you're a gentleman.
I know that. But I want to play my Yorkus.
It's going to take two minutes. I've got to play this and have you respond.
Let's play my Yorkus right now.
unidentified
Is our border secure? Our border is secure.
Border is secure because we are maximizing our resources to deliver the most effective results to our border with the most extraordinary workforce in the world.
steve bannon
Todd Benzman is right up in your grill.
Who is right? Is Mayorkas right?
He's the head of DHS. He's a cabinet official.
He's a senior member of this government, sir.
unidentified
Or is Todd Benzman from CIS? Yeah, listen, everything that comes out of that guy's mouth is just simply a lie.
He's not a credible person.
He should be ashamed.
I can't believe the things that are coming out of that guy's mouth and the way he says it with his kind of a sort of a smirky, you know, know-it-all, but he's wrong.
He's just simply wrong.
The border is not secure.
It's in a complete chaos, a free fall.
I'm about to go over.
I'm actually standing here at an international bridge.
As soon as we hang up, I'll be walking over there, and I'll be able to see once again myself, and I'll show you and your war room posse what's really going on over there.
steve bannon
We'll have you back on tomorrow morning.
Where do people go to get all your content right now?
I need people to follow you. So where do they go?
unidentified
Yeah, you can find me at BenzmanTodd at Twitter.
You know, at BenzmanTodd.
I'm on Getter. Todd Benzman at Getter and Truth Social.
And I will be live-sweeting what I see over here.
I'll be down here for the whole week, all the way into the weekend, and back and forth between Matamoros And Reynosa, Mexico, which is sort of one of the ground zeroes.
steve bannon
Todd Bensman, thank you very much.
We're trying to get you back on tomorrow morning.
Thank you for calling in by phone.
You saw the footage there. It's absolutely unbelievable.
And Todd Bensman's right.
Todd Bensman has told you the truth for the last two and a half or three years.
And Mayorkas and this illegitimate regime have lied to the Americans' face.
You saw the footage right there from the drone.
I think it might have been up on Fox.
You know, miles and miles and miles of people just waiting to come across, just waiting to come across and be processed into this country.
Okay, we're going to be back here at 10 a.m.
tomorrow morning. We're going to be live. It's going to be a blockbuster show that'll get you.
By the way, tomorrow's the debt ceiling negotiation of the White House.
We're within 48 hours of ripping the Band-Aid off of Title 42 and the mass invasion of this country on the southern border.
And President Trump is then also going to have this town hall in New Hampshire.
I've never seen a news cycle like this.
I understand the show has been a little intense today.
It's going to be more intense tomorrow.
Join us back here in the War Room at 10 a.m.
