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 going to 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.
steve bannon
It's a great honor to work for the freedom of the Chinese people and to know today that the new federal state of China is being announced by the Himalaya Society, the Himalaya organization, to actually confront, combat, and eventually take down the CCP. The new federal state offers itself as an alternative for the Chinese people, and here's the reason. The Chinese Communist Party is not a legitimate government.
unidentified
Every day Beijing gets weaker and the new federal state gets stronger.
steve bannon
The CCP must be destroyed.
This organization just needs your energy to keep going.
If we all have the common work program, take down the CCP. If we keep doing that, we're going to do it.
One more time, fuck Xi.
unidentified
We don't want unity. We want victory.
Victory or death.
We're going to take this country back.
Then we're going to take down the Chinese Communist Party.
Are you with me? If your task and purpose is to take your country back, this country will be saved.
alex jones
Here's your host Stephen K. Bound Okay
unidentified
Miles Grosz is locked in a prison over in Brooklyn.
steve bannon
I want to make sure he can hear us.
unidentified
Take down the CCP!
Free Miles Guo!
Free Miles Guo!
I can't hear you!
Free Miles Guo!
What is our task and purpose?
To take down the CCP! Take down the CCP! Thank you.
Let's roll. You think Miles can hear us?
Yes! Do you think Miles can hear us?
steve bannon
Remember where he was 34 years ago.
He was in a prison too.
Remember he got rolled up.
Why did they all get rolled up on May 26th and 27th?
Why? Why?
Why? Because the students of the Fine Arts Academy in Beijing started to build the goddess of democracy.
And the corrupt transnational criminal organization that is the Chinese Communist Party, by the way, backed by the world's elites, backed by the world's elites, could not take that.
They tolerated what went on in Tiananmen until those young art students and those young protesters started to put up The goddess of democracy.
Why couldn't they do that?
They understood that that was an image as powerful as the Statue of Liberty.
And that would incite a revolution throughout mainland China.
And that's when they came up with a plan to eradicate it.
They didn't care if they killed 10,000, 20,000, 30,000, 40,000, 50,000 people, of which they probably did massacre.
Is there any doubt in your mind about that?
I can't hear you.
unidentified
And they can't hear you in Beijing.
steve bannon
I want them to hear you not just in the federal prison here where Miles is, chained up and shackled like a dog.
What's the difference between what's happening to Miles Guo today and what happened to him under the Chinese Communist Party in Tiananmen?
What's the difference? There is no difference.
I want the people in Beijing, I want these criminals in Beijing right now, Right?
Right now, on the anniversary of Tiananmen, with the blood of Chinese patriots in that square, I want them to hear you.
unidentified
Take down the CCP! Take down the CCP! Free Miles Guo!
Free Miles Guo!
steve bannon
Think about this great structure, this building that we're in.
you The Crocker Mansion here outside of New York City, the global financial capital.
This beautiful mansion and beautiful grounds and the new headquarters, it's ironic, but proper and fitting that this was built on the labor of Chinese people.
Crocker was the head of the Central Pacific Railroad.
In 1865, the very first immigrant from Canton came to the United States because they didn't have enough labor with the Civil War.
I think there were 12,000, 15,000 by 1868.
They built the toughest part of the Transcontinental Railroad across the Sierra Nevada, across the Rocky Mountains.
That ceaseless labor is what built this.
Just like if you look over at New York City, You look at those skyscrapers, you look at modern industrial society, what is that built upon?
The slave labor of Lao-Beijing.
We have a very stark reality in front of us.
The noble Chinese people, arguably the most ancient of all of our civilizations, that have given us science and technology, Lao Tzu, the Tao Te Ching,
philosophy, a way to live one's life, is now the home for untold hundreds of millions of underground evangelical Christians and Catholics, also many other Buddhist sects and other sects that practice their underground.
That civilization, think about it for a second, in the modern world, in the modern world, The only people not free in the modern world are the Chinese people.
unidentified
Now think about that for a second.
steve bannon
How can that possibly be?
unidentified
How can it possibly be?
Because just those laborers.
steve bannon
The elites in China with the CCP are partnered with the elites throughout the world, right?
They have an economic system that works for them.
That economic system is built on the slave labor of the Chinese people.
That has to be burned into the soul of not just the modern American people, but throughout the world.
That this entire world's economy rests on slave labor.
Now think about it for a second.
How did the CCP survive Tiananmen Square?
How in the modern world, where else in the modern world has any government, any government survived the massacre on global television of 10, 15, 20, 25,000, 50,000 people?
Where does that happen anywhere in world history?
unidentified
The slaughter of people right there.
steve bannon
The answer is nowhere.
Remember, when the goddess of democracy came up, Deng Xiaoping these guys said, hey, this is now out of control because that's going to be a symbol to galvanize not just people throughout China, but people throughout the world.
The goddess of democracy will do that.
Those art students thought of something that was absolutely quite brilliant.
That's when they sent the troops in.
But even in that seventy-two, forty-eight, seventy-two hours, it was just like that whether they survived or not.
It was the darkest days of the Chinese Communist Party.
And who saved him? The Bush administration.
The Bush. The Bush apparatus.
Bush 41. They notified him immediately.
We're not going to say anything about the regime.
We're going to say the violence has stopped, but we're not going to call you out.
And 30 days later, they sent General Skullcroft over.
With laying out the plan, you're going to have to have a little bit of, you know, you're going to have to calm down.
No more killing people so blatantly.
You've got to dial it down. Yet the miles grows.
They can be imprisoned. They can disappear.
They can be tortured.
That's fine. That's okay. We just can't see it on global TV. You can't make it uncomfortable for us as your partner.
Because we've got big plans.
You guys are not quite there yet.
But we're going to show you. We're going to let you in the World Trade Organization.
We're going to give you the most favorite nation status.
We're going to let this thing ramp up, and we're going to be your partners, your silent partners.
But we're going to provide you the capital, and we're going to provide you the technology, and we're going to make sure that you can't get overthrown.
And what did they sell the American people?
Oh, here's what the American people does.
Remember, the American people have always had a great fondness and a great camaraderie ship and a great love of the Chinese people from the founding of our republic.
It's the way to tell them, oh, this is what the Chinese people need.
This is what Lao Ba Jing needs.
We've tempered the sharp edges of the Chinese Communist Party.
We're going to let them in the World Trade Organization.
We're going to let them have most favored nation status.
We're going to make them part of an integrated economic system.
And when they do that, they're going to become more liberal.
Democracy, that's what we're going to have is democracy.
And freedom for the Chinese people, that's a bald-faced lie.
That's a bald-faced lie, and they knew it was a lie when they said it.
They had no intention.
In fact, they continued to look the other way.
The repression really started even worse after Tiananmen Square, and the intelligence agencies knew it, and the apparatus of the American administrative state and national security state knew everything that went on at the exact same time we were funding them our most advanced technology in capital, capital, capital. Where was that capital provided from?
The American Lao-Baijing.
MAGA. Nobody ever asked their permission.
They didn't know it. It's not a conspiracy.
It's called a plan.
It's a plan. And it's a well-executed plan.
Look at where we are today.
The American elites, global elites, Party of Davos, they're making up better than ever.
The top 1 % in the world got the best gig they ever had in their entire lives.
The Chinese Communist Party, the elites, not even the 92 million, but the elites, The factions that run it and a couple of families that run it never had it better.
The only problem they have today, the only problem they really have today, is that their real estate, all the money they've skimmed off of the Chinese people of Lao-Beijing and put into real estate in midtown Manhattan may be a little down because Biden's economy's down.
Their only issue is that their investment, they sucked all the cash out of China, right, and put it on one belt, one road.
All these other initiatives that just give them more power and more control and more money, some of their investments may not be as good, but they got the cash out.
Tell me in the history of mankind, in the history of mankind, where we've seen a more murderous dictatorship, a more murderous dictatorship, and I put Hitler and the Nazis, the fascists, the Soviet Union, you put them all up.
In fact, you put them all up and you add them up.
1949. How did this whole thing start?
Remember, it was the Communist and the Democratic Party that were in the administrative state and the State Department and the Pentagon that were telling the world that Mao Zedong and Zhou Enlai were Democrats.
They're going to have land reform, agrarian reform.
The Chinese people are going to get their land.
They're going to have democracy. Not the nationalists.
The nationalists are corrupt and evil and incompetent taking money from everybody.
Oh, but no, we want to free the Chinese people.
We want to free the Chinese people. It's Mao Zedong and Zhou Enlai.
Time after time after time, and we now know from the records they knew it was a lie.
It was infiltration, not just by the Soviet Union, but also our own homegrown, the China hands, half of them were Marxist.
Was it Edgar Snow, Red Star of China?
The book's a total and complete work of fiction.
That was what was sold to the American people.
And so in 1949, we backed, essentially, the administration, the government of this country backed the communists.
And we knew immediately, there were voices immediately.
Remember, Joe McCarthy came, his rise to power was, who lost China?
The lies and misrepresentations of General Marshall.
And others at the State Department.
Marshaled both at the Pentagon and the State Department.
And look at what happened immediately.
The great leap forward right in the 50s.
Another debacle. It led to a famine.
A famine. They starved 40 million people to death.
Think about that for a second. 40 million people served.
As bad as Stalin was in the Ukraine, and that is horrible beyond imagination, that was 5 or 6 million.
We're talking 40.
And they had gulags as bad as anywhere on earth.
When that didn't work, to get the memory away from that, they had the greatest scar Outside of the Holocaust of the 20th century, and that's saying something.
Think in the 20th century, we murdered, starved to death, executed 250 million people between World War I and World War II and these global conflicts and the Cold War and the Chinese Communist Party, the Nazis, the fascists.
A quarter of a billion people eradicated, murdered, butchered, starved.
Think about it. It's the bloodiest century in mankind's history.
A thousand years from now, they're going to call it the Dark Ages.
And in that century, the Cultural Revolution is only second to the Holocaust.
Why? Because they understood the strength of the Chinese people.
The strength of the Chinese people is the family.
There may be the most traditional people on earth on the love of the family and the mother and the father in tradition, past generation to generation.
They had to break that.
And to break it, and also education, what would they use?
Think about it for a second.
We will weaponize the children.
We will weaponize the little children and the teenagers and the young college students in China.
We will turn them into demons to torture and starve and ridicule.
Not just people in the village, not just the kulaks.
The two most honored things in Chinese society, the teacher and the parents.
The Cultural Revolution is so awful that the Chinese Communist Party will not let it be mentioned, will not let it be talked about.
And even today in the West, we know very little about it.
Very little about it.
As horrible as that was, the Chinese people pulled themselves out with no help from anybody else.
Then the one-child policy.
Four, as Miles said, because I say Miles is 150, 200 million.
unidentified
He says no, Steve, a half a billion.
steve bannon
Forced abortions. Let's just say it's murder, slaughter.
80 % of little Chinese girls, right?
It's one of the reasons you have this massive demographic problem in mainland China today.
It's one of the reasons we have the problem with the young men today in China.
The asocial nature of them.
It's not just the evil and the propaganda of the authoritarian states.
The fact there's no ability to make a family.
There's no ability. Why?
They have murdered and slaughtered the women.
By the way, Do all these people talk to me ever hear, you know, feminism and talk about women's rights and Me Too and Into the Patriarch?
Where are you about the murder of the Chinese female babies in mainland China?
I can't hear you, feminist.
I can't hear you, leftist.
I can't hear you. You know why you can't hear them about the famine?
Think about it for a second. We had a famine that starved to death 40 million people.
And then the Cultural Revolution.
We don't even know how many dead are from that.
And things like cannibalism, and torture, and the most horrific.
You ever hear about that?
You ever hear about the one-child policy?
Why? Why?
Because the world, the world elites don't think the Chinese people are worth it.
They're prepared to lecture everybody else on racism.
unidentified
Tell me about the racism of that.
steve bannon
Are the people that are from our oldest civilization that have given us science and technology and math and some of the great philosophers and writing and some of those beautiful art for ten and five thousand years, are they not worthy?
Why does the world today look the other way?
And this is why they hate Miles Guo.
And trust me, they hate him.
Right? There's no logic.
There's no logic of why he's in jail today under anything of American law.
The Ministry of State Security officers that are rounding up people down in Chinatown, they're rounding up people.
In the indictments, the first person they identify is the Miles-Gro thereafter, the second are the Miles-Gro followers.
Yet Miles, before his trial, can't leave.
Miles is still there.
You know why Miles is still there?
They don't want his voice, because think about it.
Miles Guo coming to the West was an inflection point.
Nobody in the West talked about the Chinese Communist Party and identified the Chinese Communist Party as the problem.
Nobody identified the slavery of Lao-Beijing as a crime against humanity, because it's easy to be quiet.
Because people are making a lot of money.
It was Miles Guo that came to the West.
In Miles Guo's videos where he called out and he called out the hypocrisy of supposedly communist leaders who are the wealthiest families on earth.
And they're the wealthiest families without creating anything.
They've never created anything.
They've never made anything. They've never produced anything.
What have they done?
They've run a gulag of 1.4 billion people and they've stolen their wealth.
How much money does Lao Bai Jing make every month?
What kind of living conditions does Lao Bai Jing have?
What is the reality of the lived experience of the Chinese people today when we're totally interconnected?
You can't hide any of this.
It was Miles Guo.
And Miles Guo didn't have to do this.
He was a bayonet many times over.
He could have done anything he wanted in the world, lived anywhere he wanted in the world, partied, done anything, bought art, done anything.
He didn't need to do any of this.
None of it.
And remember, if he had kept his mouth shut and played along like everybody else, he'd be one of the richest guys in the world, and he certainly wouldn't be, on the 4th of June in the year of our Lord 2023, sitting in a federal prison.
unidentified
That's courage.
steve bannon
It becomes me. Miles grow this, miles grow that, miles grow this, miles grow that.
I don't want to hear it. I don't want to hear it.
What I've seen is he's changed the direction of the world because he's identified them as a transnational criminal organization.
A transnational criminal organization helped, created by, and empowered by the United States State Department of people like General George Marshall that are held up on pedestals in this country.
And then, 50 years later, with the blood not even dry on the stones in Tiananmen Square, supported again.
You know why we have a war on the Eurasian landmass?
We got one in the—we're gonna have one very quickly in the Straits of Taiwan, South China Sea, and we have one now in Ukraine with the two partners that come together, China and Russia.
By the way, to always remember, the two greatest allies we had in World War II were not the British and the Canadians and the French—and we have a special relationship with the British.
unidentified
And we have a very special relationship with our brothers and sisters in Canada.
steve bannon
Our allies in World War II were the Russian people and the Chinese people.
The Chinese people lost 40 million people, draining the blood of the Japanese Imperial Army so that our island hopping would be easier.
The Russian people destroyed the Wehrmacht so that on Tuesday when we commemorate D-Day, They didn't have to face 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100 German army divisions because they got bled out.
After blowing it after the war and letting their slave masters continue to enslave them and looking the other way, after World War II, we had another shot in 1989.
What would modern history, what would history today be like If the American government had backed the art students that put up the goddess of democracy, the CCP would have fallen in 30 days.
unidentified
And the CCP knew that.
steve bannon
That's in June.
What happens in November?
The Berlin Wall comes down.
And did the U.S. government do any job of getting rid of the KGB and the control mechanisms really inside of Russia?
They did not. And they allowed the Russian people once again to be enslaved by the security apparatus that was the hammer for the Soviets.
Think about that for a second.
We had two shots.
We. We.
The United States of America and the people supposedly representing the people.
You think the American people knew that at the time?
You think they were told that at the time?
What Miles Guo did is historic because he bifurcated the Chinese people from the Chinese Communist Party, and we know that they hated that.
He said, this is not the Chinese people.
There's only 92 million Chinese communists, and they're not even that effective.
It's just a handful of factions and families that take the wealth because it's a totalitarian state, by the way, of which you've helped build with your capital and your technology and looking the other way.
And here's the great irony.
Here's the great irony. Go back to when we let them into the World Trade Organization, let them into the most favored nation's status.
We're gonna, they're gonna change.
They're gonna become a liberal democracy.
Chinese people are gonna be free. What happened is the world's elites said, hang on for a second.
That's a pretty good model they got.
That's a pretty good model.
What we want is state capitalism merged with authoritarian government run by an administrative state.
Just like they do in Beijing.
Why don't we take that model?
Why don't we copy what they do?
And then we can call anybody that sticks their head up the anti-democratic forces.
Anybody that sticks their head up, you're anti-democratic.
In China, you stick your head up, you're enemy of the people.
Anti-democratic.
Domestic terrorists here.
Right? The elites were smart helping build the system.
They didn't copy it here. That's a great fight we have.
Understand something, and particularly the people watching this throughout the world, the new federal state and our other colleagues in mainland China and throughout the world.
It's quite simple. Until Lao Bai Jing is free, nobody's free.
And they say, Bannon, how can you say that?
I'm free, I'm going to go play golf today, I'm going to get in my car and run around.
No. You don't have true freedom in this country.
We don't have close to true freedom in this country.
We have an ever-increasing leviathan called the administrative state and its Praetorian guard, the deep state, that day after day after day choked down the American people and choked down true freedom and true liberty.
unidentified
Let's just, let's just cut to the chase.
steve bannon
You hear all the time that Oh, no, no, no.
You need the Chinese Communist Party because the Chinese people are too childlike and too unsettled and too chaotic and too much anarchy.
They can't govern themselves. It'd just be chaos.
You'd fall back into the warlord area.
They'd be fighting each other.
It'd be catastrophe. The whole world would go to pieces.
The factories wouldn't work. You couldn't do it because they're too immature and they can't govern themselves.
They're not ready for democracy.
That's the argument. When you're behind closed doors, that's what they say.
As bad as the CCP is, it's not as bad as the alternative.
Look throughout the world.
I don't care if it's Taiwan or Australia or Canada or Japan or Europe, the Middle East, India, or the United States of America.
Look at the Chinese that have come here and come to these countries.
Look at what they've achieved.
Look at what they've accomplished.
Look how they comport themselves.
You can go to any nation in the world with different cultures and different civilizations.
They're model citizens.
There's an article that literally just popped as I was walking up here from one of the new alternative presses in Manhattan.
And they talk about the scores, the scores on the college boards and everything.
And the Asian students, led by the Chinese, are dominating everything.
I don't mean kind of higher, they're dominating everything.
You know why? Not just the hard work and the diligence, but most importantly, the parents have not bought into woke.
Why? Because since time immemorial, the Chinese have never caught a break.
Have the Chinese people ever caught a break anywhere?
Anywhere? Ever caught a break?
Ever been welcomed with open arms?
Ever had... People say, yeah, you get to the front of the line.
We're gonna, you know, make sure that you're top, that you get in.
No, no. And all those countries are named.
Including my own beloved country, right?
After all that hard work, they panicked.
Oh my God, too many hard-working folks coming.
unidentified
Right? You did it yourselves.
steve bannon
That's what Lao Tzu told us 400 years ago.
400 years before the birth of Christ, he said that leader is best, that when the objectives are achieved and the people's accomplishments are there, that the people will look to themselves and say, look what we have done.
Was that then the message of Myles Gwoe?
Today, the new federal state, the Rule of Law Society, the Rule of Law Foundation, the whistleblower movement, the quality of the television program you put up, the message you put out, the way you comport yourself, the way you will not back down.
Remember, I don't believe in conspiracies, but I don't believe in coincidences either.
It's quite odd, quite odd, that Miles was arrested.
Not just when the trial was starting, right, that showed that huge donors in the Republican Party were going to get paid huge amounts of money to get him sent back to China, as people have been doing, Higginbotham, people in the Department of Justice, that's been happening for years, right?
But also the fact that Nicole And Prince and David and others had been down in Washington, D.C. for week after week after week after week.
Not just at CPAC, but going around Capitol Hill and knocking on doors.
And to make sure and to ensure That they would have to earn it on their own because that's what's important, to earn it on your own and to do it on your own.
I did nothing.
All I did was call up and set up a few meetings.
I didn't pitch it. I didn't say you had to do this.
I didn't say you had to take the meeting.
I didn't say you had to sign a letter. I didn't say anything to people I'm very close to.
I said, just hear them out.
And look at the letters that were signed.
Look at what they accomplished.
Look at the caucus they started to put together.
You'll see some of these congressmen today and that's just a fraction.
of how they've impressed people in the nation's capital without putting in any money, just through their earnestness and their message and their diligence and their dignity and their discernment.
Applause That's how the Chinese people have accomplished everything.
you When President Trump was elected, in the third week of January of 2017, there were two speeches given.
One was on, I think, Wednesday the 17th or Wednesday the 18th.
Wednesday the 18th. It was in Davos.
It was Xi. And he gave this speech and talked about, you know, Made in China 2025, One Belt, One Road, this whole networking system.
It's all going to be great. People are going to make money, and this thing's going to be fantastic, and we're going to do all this, and we're going to have this network effect.
He's up there. And he said, the only problem we've got in the world is populism.
Populism and nationalism, that's a problem.
That's going to be a problem. In Davos, The Financial Times, I don't have the paper from that day, I just got another one where they're singing the praises of Beijing, but the Financial Times, number one financial paper in the world, the next day said Xi, great speech, standing ovation, what a world statesman, what a brilliant man. Now think about it for a second.
In Davos, what is Davos?
The World Economic Forum in Davos, man?
They're bankers and hedge fund managers and investment bankers and consulting firms like Booz Allen and McKinsey and they're all the big accounting firms like P. Marwick.
They're all the big marketing companies and all the hot brands and they're all the communication specialists and the spinmeisters and all the TV media, CNBC, BBC, MSNBC, Bloomberg TV, all of it.
They're all there. They're interviewing people and doing forums, and Henry and Chris are all walking out there, and Klaus Schwab, they're all big shots, and they're talking, talking, talking, all that.
That's all Davos man, right there.
What business are they in?
They're all in the same business. It's the information business, whether it's the information business, whether it's about their hedge funds, or their stock picks, or their banking, investment banking, marketing, consulting, media, it's all the same business.
Information. Information.
Now you're telling me, and these are the world, this is the inside the ropes, this is the VIPs, Davos man.
Number one inside baseball on information.
Are you telling me that on the 18th of January 2017, they didn't know about the Uyghurs?
They didn't know about the concentration camps?
They didn't know about the authoritarian dictatorship shutting everybody down, crushing the spirit of the Chinese people, of the propaganda, of that if you believe in God, whether you're Buddhist or Hindu, or Taoism or Christianity, you must be crushed down, you must be crushed. The organ harvesting, what they do to the dissidents, the prisons they have, disappearing people, do you believe for a second they didn't know any of it, they knew all of it?
And they praised Xi as the second coming.
Why? They don't care about Li Bajin.
If you have to suffer, and you have to be crushed, and you have to be destroyed in your earthly presence now, in order for Davos man to make unlimited profits, that's just the natural order of things.
It's not me says that.
That's Jamie Dimon. Washington-Beijing tensions have upended global order, says Jamie Dimon.
That global order is based on the slavery of the people that have made the most ancient civilization on earth, and that is a crime that nobody can hide from.
And so, the world's divided into two people, two sets of people.
Either those that support Lao Bajing and their fight for freedom against his murderous dictatorship, or those that are taking advantage of Lao Bajing and taking the profits from Lao Bajing and leading a better life by the sweat off the brow and the blood of Lao Bajing.
That's the line of demarcation.
And that's what Miles Rowe, when he came to the West, made sure that nobody could hide from him anymore.
And that is why he's in federal prison right now.
There's only one question before it ends.
It's not a question of what's right or wrong.
It's not a question of who's good and evil in this.
It couldn't be clearer.
Couldn't be anything clearer in human history.
I dare anybody to show me at any time in human history that any moral question has been more black and white than this.
The only question before us is one is what are we going to do about it?
What are we going to do about it?
Divine providence has determined that you're free in here and able to fight.
And that's why you're the vanguard of a revolutionary movement, a movement to free more people at one time than have ever been freed on Earth.
And that's got to start with these hypocrites on Wall Street, in Silicon Valley, in Washington DC that are the partners, the blood oath partners of this criminal gang in Beijing.
The first book of War Room Books is called The Indictment.
I waited to launch this publishing venture until this book was done.
Why? I wanted War Room Books.
When we started, we're going to have so many great titles.
But I needed to start with what is most important right now.
And that's an indictment of the criminals in Beijing and, more importantly, their partners here in the West that have allowed this to go on.
We have a long fight in front of us.
Three years ago, no one envisioned Miles Guo in prison except for Miles Guo.
He knew every day that either trying to assassinate him, trying to grab him and bring him back to China to rot and die in some prison or be executed and tortured, or it happened here.
The only question before us is what are you prepared to do?
If we're prepared to go all in, trust me, the more this gets out to the American people, it's not getting information to them, it's not getting information to Europe, it's not getting information.
It's putting it in front of their face so they can't deny it.
So that they know if they look away, and they continue to support this system that enslaves the Chinese people, that they will be weighed and measured at the end of their earthly life.
And in that weighing and measuring, they said, you knew it.
Just like in the 1930s, they looked away when Hitler was doing it to the Jews, was killing the Jews, and the world looked away because it's too uncomfortable, too unpleasant, might upset things.
We've had, what, 70, 80 years of these barbarians destroying the Chinese people?
You can't run away from it.
Your mission, your task and purpose is to put it in front of the face of the world and make sure they can't turn away.
Because in not turning away, begins the next step to our victory.
Honored to be here. Honored to found this.

Thank you. Take down the CCP! Take down the CCP! Take down the CCP! Free Miles Guo!
Free Miles Guo!

Good day, ladies and gentlemen. Colonel Mike Waltz, a Green Beret from Florida 6.
Colonel, and by the way, one of the best congressmen out there.
Sir, your article today in Epoch Times is something we've been talking about a long time here.
Artificial intelligence, China, and this new either unrestricted warfare or Cold War we're at.
Can you walk us through the case you make in this, quite frankly, brilliant piece?
michael walz
Yeah, thanks, Steve. And compliments back to you.
You really have been one of the thought leaders way before it was cool and trendy in Washington and seeing the absolute threat that the Chinese Communist Party is, which I believe is the greatest threat this nation has ever faced in its history for all kinds of reasons that you're well-versed on.
But central to that and central to Xi's plan to dominate the United States and dominate a new global world order, is eclipsing us from a technology standpoint and driving that is its massive global data collection operation to feed the AI machine that they are pumping billions into.
So look, I get the dangers of AI. There's a lot of benefits, but there's also a lot of dangers.
But for those in the United States that are screaming from the rooftops to tap the brakes, on US-developed AI or for government to get heavily involved, I continue to ask them, how do you do that in the context of our greatest enemy ever that has had their foot on the gas now in terms of AI development for years?
And with TikTok, its cyber intrusions, its exfiltrating millions and millions of government workers' data from the OPM breach and and others that has developed the data to feed that AI machine.
And just finally, look, I do subscribe to the notion that a mediocre algorithm powered by a massive, excellent data operation is far more dangerous than the best algorithms where you have very little data.
Data is the fuel that is going to feed their military machine.
steve bannon
You know, one of your biggest fans is Colonel Harvey.
I guess you guys were at CENTCOM. You've been a warfighter at the tip of the spear.
How is Washington, the understanding, particularly when you get to the civilian side, is quite rudimentary about warfare.
How are you going about, and we've got Maureen Gallagher on the committee of China, but how are you guys going to go about and make sure that the city can wake up immediately?
Because this is not something we can take six months or a year to get to.
The Australian Strategy Group and Voice of America summarizes 23 military technologies, advanced technologies.
China leads the United States in 19, and it's almost all of our innovation.
So, Colonel, tell the audience, how are you going to do that?
michael walz
Well, and to that point, just to add to it, the Defense Department has identified a series of critical minerals They have foreign dependency on 39 of them and China dependency on 22.
So even, you know, sit the semiconductors, sit the algorithms aside, just the basic raw materials to power the Defense Department, to power our entire economy.
We've created or we've allowed China to create a global dependency on.
Look, I think there's a recognition.
across a lot of members here in Washington, but it's limited to the national security committees.
And so one of the things that I'm doing to answer your question directly is, you know, I am inviting people outside of Intel, Armed Services and others, somebody who may be on the Agriculture Committee or on the Education and Labor Committee, on the Freedom Caucus, even progressives, to come to things like a classified Chinese Navy brief, just to see how bad the situation is.
So we have to expand the aperture and get people who aren't thinking about this all the time and aren't getting these classified sessions that just shows how dire the situation is.
So to answer your question, I'm trying to get them in the room to get the information so that when we're making decisions on like what our defense budget should be, what our intelligence community should be focused on, it's not just the few members who are sitting on those relevant committees.
It's people that are outside of this and may not be thinking about it all the time.
So, for example, going to folks that are on education and labor and saying, look at what the Confucius Institutes are absolutely doing.
Look at how the Chinese are buying up American private schools.
Oh, by the way, in Silicon Valley, the Research Triangle in North Carolina, and schools with junior ROTC. So stop it with accusations of racism or xenophobia.
We need to think about this like we thought about the Soviet Union, and that's why describing the reality that it is we're in a Cold War.
They're in a Cold War with us.
They are seeking to defeat us and supplant us and replace us is so important.
steve bannon
Colonel, if you were back in your previous jobs, if you were called into CENTCOM today and asked a brief, and they asked you right now at this point in time, the point in the slope, Are we winning this Cold War?
Are we neutral right now?
Or are we losing? What would be your answer?
michael walz
I'd say now for the next two years, I'm confident that we could win militarily in any conflict.
But the trend lines are so bad that within the next three to five to seven to ten, That I'm not confident.
I don't think we can take for granted anymore.
And I think the American people have been lulled into complacency to think that we'll win any fight out there.
Not this one. Not when you have the Chinese outbuilding us in ships at a rate of three to one.
They're tripling their nuclear arsenal.
Ours is decrepit and aging.
We still have things on floppy disks.
And they're launching more into space than us and the rest of the world combined.
And they're using their economic leverage and power to gobble up the basic materials that we need to power our economy and then turn right around and are leveraging the basic or the fundamental aspects of our society,
Hollywood, Wall Street, academia, sports industry, and co-opting them to continue us down this road towards dependency on the CCP. From a whole-of-society standpoint, that's what has me so concerned.
What has me so concerned is that their theory of victory is that, like the Soviet Union did, we throw our hands up and say we can't afford to compete anymore, and they win economically before there ever is any type of military conflict.
That's the true danger.
steve bannon
Hall of Society, we'd love to come back to your staff and open up like an hour so that you could brief the American people because I think as much as getting the committees is to hear your voice of the American people or maybe even a town hall, but we'll come back to you.
And we'll make sure this piece in the Epoch Times is read far and wide because it's quite profound.
Colonel, thank you very much.
Appreciate this. How do people get to your site and how do they get to you on social media?
michael walz
Well, they can follow me on Twitter on MichaelGWaltz, W-A-L-T-Z. And then it's MikeWaltz on Facebook and Insta.
But Steve, I just want to thank you for your leadership on this.
This is existential.
The Soviet Union is kids' play compared to what we're facing with the Chinese Communist Party.
steve bannon
Colonel, I couldn't agree with you more, and I think we need to hear your voice.
I think you need to brief the American people.
We'll figure it out, but this is a profound article and directionally in its whole society.
You're absolutely correct. Congressman Mike Waltz, Florida 6, honored to have you on here.
