Peace out yo!
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 corner 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.
Okay.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Welcome back, August 15th, Year of the Lord 2023.
Our second hour of the late afternoon and evening show of the War Room.
The next two days on Wednesday and Thursday, we'll be in Missouri at the election summit.
And we've got a lot going on there.
We're going to be absolutely packed, but there's some things I want to get through before we get to the Missouri.
Dr. Pierre Corey comes back to the show.
Dr. Corey, thank you so much.
I want to get to your book on ivermectin in a moment, but I got to talk about this amazing article up on Brownstone that I think they took from your sub stack.
So what I'm talking about, and let's just jump to the point, right?
publish an op ed in USA Today on the excess excess mortality in young people across the world. You talk about what that is and how you got it in there. Can you take a second to explain to our audience exactly what you're talking about here? Because it's quite important.
unidentified
I think the math here is very important, sir. So what I'm talking about and let's just jump to the point. Right. So in that op ed, I brought attention to a wave of death that's rippled across advanced health economies over the last few years, right?
I get it.
COVID happened.
But if you actually look at the data, it finally shows, I think, the most compelling support for what many of us COVID experts have been talking about for a couple of years.
These vaccines are the most toxic and lethal medical intervention we've ever seen.
We have numerous sources of data.
But we're in a political environment where the censorship is not just social media and media, but it's occurring in the medical journals.
They're not publishing any analyses of the data that's adverse towards the vaccines.
And so that op-ed, Stephen, you understand how big that op-ed was.
I mean, I got an op-ed in which it simply asked the question.
All I did was ask the question, what is killing people?
And the data that I provide is that we're seeing unprecedented what's called excess mortality.
So death rates tend to be very stable over time.
They do change, but they change slowly within populations.
But I would say the crux of that op-ed was I pointed out that our youngest and healthiest members of society, which are white collar workers, traditionally have the lowest mortality rates.
Well, In 2021, in the third quarter, we saw a historically unprecedented rise.
The actuarial life insurance industry has never seen that in their history.
A rise suddenly in a three month period in the third quarter of 2021 in the healthiest group life insurance holders.
And, you know, I leave all of the data.
That's only the most granular data.
I talk about the UK and Australia and a number of other countries.
But what's interesting about the U.S.
is that we have this actuarial data that's now public.
It's a public report, and it allows you to not only time when those deaths skyrocketed, but among whom, like what ages they skyrocketed.
And when you actually look through that report and you see the data, you marry that with what the CEO of One America, which is one of the biggest life insurance agencies, companies, You know, he said that a 10% rise from year to year in a death rate amongst the cohort of the population is a 1 in 200 year event.
1 in 200 year event would be a 10% rise.
And they saw in the third quarter of 2021 a 38% rise.
They've never seen that in the history of their business outside of wartime.
And now all the naysayers are going to say, oh, this is Global warming, this is lockdowns, this is delayed health care, this is deaths of despair from alcoholism or drug addiction or suicide.
And all of those things are a cause of death, but they have been for a while.
Why?
What happened in the third quarter of 2021?
And, you know, in my substack, which kind of I followed up my op-ed, because in my op-ed, we never mentioned the word vaccine.
We just leave the question.
Who is looking at this and why aren't they?
This is a historic catastrophic event.
We're losing young people at rates we've never lost them before, and no one's asking the question.
Now, I couldn't put vaccine in there.
Steve, you know, if I had done that, it would have never gotten published in any major media.
But in my sub-stack, I was much more open and brazen.
And I point out that all of those other competing reasons make no sense.
The Temporal Association, if you look at the fall of 2021, that's when university, corporate and governmental vaccine mandates all went into force.
All those young people were starting to get vaccinated at incredible rates, and you see it in the death data.
It basically, in my mind, my interpretation, it is the most compelling evidence that these vaccines are deadly.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Two things.
One, why couldn't it just been the COVID pandemic, the virus itself?
unidentified
Okay, so COVID deaths are graded as such, right?
So when you actually look at the death claims, you can actually see how many deaths were from COVID.
And COVID explains a lot of the excess death in 2020.
Now most of those excess deaths in 2020 were elderly people.
We know that they're at their highest risk.
We know from the death data that young people do not die of COVID.
I mean, under 18 there's almost no deaths from COVID.
And even in young, so why in 2021 did people suddenly start, young people, like we're talking about young people, why did they suddenly start dying of COVID?
They didn't.
The variants were weakening.
They were not as deadly.
And then you saw this huge rise in young people dying.
So as far, and I appreciate the consideration of other confounding explanations and other causes, but it makes no sense.
It's, it's the abruptness, the magnitude and the timing.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
What, when you say young people, can you just, so you've explained why it can't be COVID because there's a track record in their patent.
It didn't kill the young, although they were maniacally obsessed with getting the vaccine into the young.
It didn't kill the young.
Number two is, uh, just what, what age bracket you talk about and what percentage when you say, you know, the greatest rise ever, what age bracket are you talking about?
What's the percentage increase?
unidentified
So the umbrella term would be working age Americans.
That's a cohort from 18 to 64.
But when you actually dive deep into life insurance reports, they break it down into deciles.
So you have like, I think they have a report of 0 to 21, and then like 22 to 32, or 30 to 44.
So you can see each decile.
And when you see the 20-year-old decade, the 30-year-olds and the 40-year-olds, with these unprecedented prizes, I mean, It's just shocking.
And what's more damning, it's not just young people.
When you look at who of the young people are dying, you get even more detail.
It's white-collar workers.
So why, you know, so there's blue-collar, gray-collar, and white-collar.
Gray-collar is like teachers, right?
And when you look at actually who was dying at the highest rates, it was white-collar workers.
Suddenly, that's traditionally the healthiest sector of society.
Suddenly, in the fall of 2021, white-collar workers, the most educated, the most wealthy, the most active in their careers, they suddenly start dying off at rates that the industry hasn't seen before.
So you're left with the question, what happened in the white-collar workplace in the third quarter of 2021?
And then the other piece of data is when you look at the different parts of the labor market, who had the highest death rates?
Government employees.
And I put in evidence.
If you remember early September 21, that's when Biden put in his federal employee mandate, right?
So anyone employed, even contractors by the federal government were mandated to get vaccinated.
And you saw that sector of the labor market got hammered.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Why was, um, The insurance companies, why have they not made a bigger deal about this? You don't have them going screaming to Wall Street.
They almost, I would say, suppress the information. Would that be too harsh a term?
Because there wasn't a huge outcry of this that was clearly costing them money.
unidentified
That is the question. That's the one that I've been scratching my head over.
Because what I write about in my sub stack, which kind of accompanies the op-ed, is I had the opportunity.
I was put in a meeting with about 20 representatives of life insurance companies, executives, actuaries, representatives of those executives, and myself and a couple of colleagues, some COVID experts, we gave them damning data on the effects of suppression of early treatments like Baclometham, Mednar, and Sifloquin, and damning data on how toxic and lethal these vaccines were.
Now this is the life insurance industry.
They came to this meeting Because they saw their signals.
They saw that death claims were absolutely skyrocketing.
And you're right about the money.
Imagine what it's like to pay a group life health insurance claim for a 21-year-old, who normally would be paying that policy premium for another 40 years before dying, and now you're paying it out 40 years early.
I mean, it's huge.
So they came to this meeting, but I will tell you, only two people at that meeting turned on their cameras and no one spoke, no one asked questions.
Well, two things.
A lot of these young people might not even have policies, right?
They just think they're going to live forever, so no reason to policy.
in that their epidemiologic data is divorced from their financial data.
Those are different departments. It's very delayed and diffused.
And for them to figure out how much money they're losing, it's going to take them time.
But the premiums are going to...
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Well, two things.
A lot of these young people might not even have policies, right?
They just think they're going to live forever. So no reason to policy.
The other is they're so government controlled that they didn't want to cross.
They didn't want to cross.
They didn't want to cross the government by coming out.
You had a response on the first one?
unidentified
Wow.
Okay, just want to be clear that actually, the data that I really mostly focused on its data taken from the population that has a group life health insurance policy. Now you have to ask yourself, wow. policy. So group life health insurance is generally fortune 500 employees, right? So corporate Yep, wow.
Wow.
government employees that have good life. So they all had life insurance. And we know what the rates of dying are because that's their business. And when they see a sudden spike, it decimates their business. And so they put out the alarm, but it got nowhere.
Wow.
You're right. I know it's to your question. The point of that meeting that I was in is that our hopes were that we could get a collection of life insurance industry executives to come out and put out a public statement or or hold a press conference.
That did not happen.
There was no appetite for it.
And the reason why is they don't have the vaccination status of those who died.
So they couldn't be, you know, hyper-completely clear that you could show that the vaccinated people were dying more.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
All you could see is the sudden rise.
Yeah, but hang on, but hang on.
Since they were already policy, they were the guys, the Fortune 500, those are the ones that enforced the mandate.
The government employees, the government and the big corporations definitely enforced it.
The numbers would be worse if you counted who didn't have it or the people, entrepreneur or self-employed or just workers, you know, in the field.
The numbers would be much higher.
But to know this, this is because they didn't want to, they don't want to cross the regulators.
They don't want to cross the, they don't want to, the regime's got a narrative.
They don't want to cross the narrative and, uh, and they're not going to do it. They don't care if they lose money. They don't care if their shareholders lose money. It's better than being, being put out of business. And that's where they afraid to be put out of business.
unidentified
And, and, and you're right. And if you look at the history of the insurance industry, right, they have pioneered standards of safety in any number of sectors. So, so maritime safety, aviation safety, electrical, building codes, right?
Health safety.
I mean, they really have, you know, found data and interventions that have protected us from lots of different dangers that we have as we go through life.
And here, they're sitting silent as they're watching those vaccines decimate a big portion of society.
One of the reasons why I think they're doing that is because that was then, this is now.
You know that the uptake of vaccines has plummeted.
No one's interested in these, even though there's some places that are still mandating.
I mean, there's very little vaccine uptake of these COVID vaccines.
So maybe they're just hoping that this will be water under the bridge and they'll recover.
I don't know, but the death rates are still up.
That's the thing.
We're still seeing excess deaths.
And so it's still a problem.
And we need to look at this, but government's not functioning.
I don't think it's going to happen.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
I want to pivot.
If I go on MSNBC, you're the kook and the bad guy that got America to start looking at it.
Is it horse tranquilizers?
Animal tranquilizers?
Talk to me.
The book is ivermectin.
Horse whatever, dewormer, horse dewormer.
You're the one that's got everybody going to the vet stores and buying dewormer.
You're considered a kook, a nutcase, a bad guy.
The book you can't put down.
It's like almost like a mystery.
It's like a police procedural.
Tell us about, tell us about ivermectin and your fight to make sure that this drug is available to people.
unidentified
Yeah, so just briefly, you know, myself and some colleagues, When COVID was coming towards our shore, we got together.
We started researching everything about COVID.
We put out protocols.
We did that on our website, which is flccc.net.
We're the frontline COVID-19 critical care alliance.
And we just studied everything about COVID, all the therapies.
And we were tracing all of the trials, all the data.
And in October of 2020, we started to see a collection of trials coming from multiple places in the world, showing ivermectin's massive efficacy in Reducing deaths, hospitalizations, time to clinical recovery, and time to viral clearance.
We put it in our protocol.
I gave testimony in the Ron Johnson Senate hearing.
It went viral, and I remember it became a huge topic, and it considered therapy with COVID.
What I did in this book is, after we did that, and we gave our advice, and it started to be heard, our lives all went sideways.
Things were happening to us that I never would have imagined.
You know, I know you were joking, Stephen, you called me a fringe or a coup, but I do want to say that myself and my colleagues were some of the most highly published doctors in our specialty.
You know, my partner, Paul Merrick, is the most published practicing ICU doctor in the history of our specialty.
So we had, you know, decades of credibility.
Many of us are highly published, well known in our specialty, but it didn't matter.
As soon as we started recommending ivermectin, it seemed like the whole world was against us.
And What that book does is I detail the war that I've imagined in terms of it was a massive disinformation campaign.
And I learned about disinformation as that war was going on.
I didn't understand what was happening.
I didn't understand why I was getting attacked, you know, why I was losing jobs, why I was such a pariah all of a sudden.
And it happened one day in March of 2021.
When a researcher wrote me an email and he just said, Dear Dr. Corey, what they're doing to Ivermectin, they've been doing to vitamin for decades.
And he included a link to an article called the Disinformation Playbook.
It essentially describes what industries do when science emerges that's inconvenient to their interests.
And the playbook is named after American football players.
And they basically detail the fraudulent science that they put out, how it's published in high-impact journals, How the media carries those messages to the population, and then how they capture agencies and research.
And they blitz researchers.
It's called the blitz.
That's when they harass researchers.
My career has been decimated.
I'm now out of academia.
In fact, all of us in my group, our careers have ended.
We've literally been thrown out of our hospitals, accused of everything under the sun.
And so it really has been a war, and I described that war, and by the way, although I talk about ivermectin, it's been going on for decades.
Pharma has been destroying off-patent drugs for decades, and although I wrote the book, The War on Ivermectin, one of my colleagues, Peter McCullough, could have written the book, The War on Hydroxychloroquine, because it was the same war, same tactics, same results.
Millions dying.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
How can people, uh, I want to have you back on.
I want to break down the whole history of the Ivermectin, but how do people get the book in the interim and how they get to your sub stack, uh, and other information about you?
Cause you've been doing fascinating work.
unidentified
I appreciate it.
So yeah, the book, uh, Amazon's probably the best place to buy it.
Um, uh, so you just go at Amazon, the Warren Ivermectin.
My non-profit is called the FLCCC, so FLCCC.net.
My sub-stack is called Medical Musings, and that's PierreCorey.substack.com.
And then my private practice where I treat and specialize not only in general medicine, but vaccine injury and long-haul COVID, that's DrPierreCorey.com.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
What type of, right before we go, what type of, when you say vaccine damage, what types of percentage, are you seeing a lot of that?
unidentified
Oh, that's my entire practice.
So I am seeing myself and my partner, we have hundreds of patients under our care who are suffering from what I call a post COVID-19 vaccine injury syndrome.
So I see patients with syndromes, not complications.
So the difference between complications, syndrome, Complication is more like a single organ problem, like a myocarditis, or a heart attack, or a stroke.
What I'm seeing is these patients, and what they really have, it's most like chronic fatigue syndrome, or what we call myalgic encephalitis.
And these patients are decimated with fatigue they've never experienced before.
Post-exertional malaise, which is when they try to do some activity or exertion, sometimes just going to get the mail from the mailbox, puts them in bed for two hours.
They have no exertional capacity.
And they have lots of cognitive problems.
And that's three core symptoms of it.
The rest of the stuff they come is lots of dysautonomia.
So abnormal heart rates and blood pressures, um, lots of neuropathies, burning, tingling, electric shocks, numbness, pain, um, lots of cranial symptoms.
So headache, dizziness, um, uh, and then gastrointestinal, uh, issues.
It really spans the entire body, but the neuropathies are wicked and the systemic fatigue is overwhelming.
Most of my patients are disabled.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
How do people, if they have those, if our war room posse either have them themselves or know people that have them, how do they contact you on the medical side?
unidentified
They should come to me at Dr. Kory.com.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Dr. Corey, thank you very much.
It's a very brave, heroic fight you've had to stand up for medicine, to stand up for the medical profession, and to stand up for average citizens.
So thank you very much.
unidentified
Thanks, Steve.
Same to you.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
This is what you see across the board.
This is whether it's these indictments in Georgia or what's happening to the folks in Michigan, to other people trying to stand up.
They're always going to come after you.
They're going to come.
The apparatus is going to come and come hard.
I want to get up to Ben Harnwell.
Ben, we talked about the apparatus coming hard.
I want to just take a second and contextualize what's happening here.
The situation in Ukraine, which has taken up so much, hundreds of billions of dollars, and don't believe it when you see it in the press, it's $43 billion, that's a lie.
We put another $300 million of weapons in over the last couple of days.
I think the total all-in, we look at every agency, everything we're doing, including Social Security, all-in, it's north of $150, almost $200 billion, okay?
Biden's put up a $20 billion supplemental, right?
I think he's put up $12 or $13 billion for Maui for Hawaii, $20 billion for Ukraine, $13 billion in more weapons, more military assistance, and another $7 or $8 billion to pay their doctors and to pay their nurses and to pay the pensions, all that, all of which total health care and pensions that you don't have, American citizens don't have, but you're paying for it.
And of course, Ben, one of the articles we want to talk about, they had a thing of Odessa over the weekend, and I realize Odessa, the grain facility is being knocked out, but the beaches of Odessa look like Miami Beach, right?
It looks like tourism is in high season.
More importantly is this story, Ben, I want to go through that talks about the actual reality of what's happening on the ground in Ukraine as they're now shoveling in more money.
The reality of what's happening on the ground versus what they're telling the media because there's a strong information lockdown in Ukraine to the American people as there is in Maui about what caused this or what's going on in Maui as we now know that land speculators are all over the Good evening, Steve.
of Maui to sell their land to them.
So Ben, walk me through, what's the reality?
I think this article in the Asia Times that came off a sub stack from one of Frank Gaffney's guys over at the Community of the Present Dangerous, pretty stunning, sir.
unidentified
Good evening, Steve.
ben harnwell ▲ ● ▼
You know, I'm going to start with, I will get to that after.
But I want to start because you started off your introduction this evening talking about context and putting this into context.
You know, every day I come here on the warm and I give updates on what's going on and what's not what's not going on in Ukraine.
And then we're always saying that this is costing.
Taxpayers right across the world principally American taxpayers to put this into context now You have to you write that the figure is is it I think that the true figure is going to be somewhere between 180 and 200 billion That the US has given all together, you know in financial aid military aid or what have you?
The Heritage Foundation, however their budgetary analysis expert which is Stern he's done a calculation of Based on the then, obviously the figure is changing constantly, the then accepted figure of, based on formal aid packages alone, of 113 billion, which is, as you say, a lot more than the 40 billion which they're publicly admitting to.
unidentified
I said context.
ben harnwell ▲ ● ▼
How much does this affect the average US household?
Well, according to the Heritage, $900 per American household so far.
So there's the first calculation that I've seen is that it actually relates this, not in terms of abstract billions with so many zeros after it, but a concrete damage to each American family.
That's $900.
I'm going to move on from that.
I've got five articles to go through.
As always, folks, I'm going to put the links.
Go to the War Room page on Rumble.
Come to me on Getter and follow the link to Rumble.
I'll put all of the links for this in the show notes.
Next article I'm coming to now, Memphis, is the second one, the Semaphore article.
Here the headline is Wagner and Iran are turning Belarus into a new front of Europe.
Warren Posse isn't going to be surprised by this but the story I'm going to come on to next after this I do want to bring to your attention all updates that suggest something is going on in Belarus with Wagner.
Here's another article.
I'll just read out two very brief extract and then I'm going to move on to the article Steve you were actually talking about.
Poland, Lithuania and Latvia have all rushed thousands of troops to their borders over the past few weeks in response to Belarusian military exercises in the west of the country.
Officials from NATO countries tell Semaphore that they are also closely monitoring the influx of Wagner mercenary forces into Belarus.
You might want to read that article, Posse, and it's got a lot in it.
But I'm just going to mention that now.
unidentified
Why am I mentioning that?
ben harnwell ▲ ● ▼
Because there is something going on.
The satellite images, military journalists, telegram commentators all seem to be indicating something is going on with Russia towards the southern border, that something is going on, a counter-counter-offensive.
unidentified
This article here in the Asia Times is pretty much in that... Hang on.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Ben, just hang on for one second.
We're taking a short commercial break.
We're going to be back.
We got Ben Hornwell.
We're going through the true situation in Ukraine.
Short commercial break.
unidentified
Back in a moment.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
This piece that we're about to talk about is in the Asian Times, is by one of the Center for Security Policy, one of Frank Gaffney's guys, Stephen Byron.
He's also on the Committee on the Present Danger.
We're going to have Dr. Bradley Thayer join us in a second.
Walk us through this and the buried leads in this, Ben, because this is quite an explosive piece in the Asia Times.
ben harnwell ▲ ● ▼
Thanks Steve.
So the headline here is ground softening for big Russian offensive and that's following on from what I was just saying before the break.
Something is happening on the southern border of Ukraine.
The two polls here that I would like to take from this article and I'll just cite them directly.
There have also been reports of Ukrainian units refusing to fight and while information on such mutinies has been suppressed it seems to have happened in the past few days.
See that corroborates what you were saying on the show about Ukrainians basically not wanting to fight anymore and not being sent to fight anymore because it's a meat grinder.
The second thing I want to quote And this is the first time I've actually seen this in writing, is no one can say for sure whether Ukraine's military still supports Zelensky.
But as more and more cracks appear in Kiev, it is a good bet that they may take matters into their own hands.
Should that happen, Zelensky will likely be deposed.
And that context is around the fact that, according to rumours, Zelensky is about to fire his defence minister.
Now, I've just got two more stories I'd like to quickly hit, if I may, before we go to Dr Thea.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Uh, but, but, but, but hang on, but ho, ho, ho, hang on.
I want to go back to these for a second.
This is pretty explosive, and this is tied to, unconfirmed from other sources we have, they say they may be up to, for the entire war, as many as 200,000 KIAs on the Ukrainian side, civilian and military, in the war.
Uh, we don't know if that number's correct, because we don't know any numbers.
All the numbers that come out of there are, you know, non-verifiable.
What we do know is that they've had a difficult time getting young troops outside of being press ganged to the front.
And Zelensky just fired his entire command of the recruitment for taking bribes from family members and the money's been substantial.
In Odessa alone, I think they say the general that headed up took $5 million in cash, which he funneled back into Spain in real estate.
And he was just relieved to lead the process, kind of the domino.
And then Zelensky went in last week and relieved all of them for cause.
So we know they've had a major recruiting problem of getting actually young combat troops to the front.
Now, this says that certain units are not fighting.
Why this would tend to make sense is that you're not seeing the two things you talked about.
You're not seeing real progress in this counteroffensive.
And now you've got all this potential buildup of Russia troops, maybe coming back in other directions, not focused on the counteroffensive, but maybe farther north and striking back into Ukraine.
There's some reason.
that the Ukrainian forces right now are not making progress.
Now, it could be because they're not trained.
It could be because, hey, we don't have close air support.
It could be a number of reasons.
But one thing we know is that they're not making progress, and I don't think this not making progress can last forever, Ben Harnwell.
ben harnwell ▲ ● ▼
Well, you know, another factor to consider, Steve, is the fact that morality amongst the people and in the troops.
Yesterday we cited this figure of a Ukrainian poll conducted by Ukrainians for Ukrainians that had 76.6% of the Ukrainian people saying that President Zelensky, and I quote, was directly responsible for the corruption in both the government and the military.
It's difficult when you're going into a meat grinder to obey orders to do so if the cause you're fighting for doesn't seem particularly just.
Steve, there was another poll I might just add that put the proportion of Ukrainians at about 70% are saying that they don't trust NATO and they don't trust the European Union because they're both of these institutions are pursuing their own interests and they're just basically using Ukraine as a pawn. Factor that in as well and you can start to understand why Ukraine has a recruitment problem at this stage of the war.
As you say, it's not going to be...
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
By the way, hang on.
I'm not so sure that the Ukrainian people don't think their cause, which is the independence of Ukraine, I'm not sure they doubt that.
I think they look around them and they see Zelensky and his corrupt oligarchs, you know, stealing money, not serving.
Um, and, and, and, and having, uh, sending these young people to battle with that are really well thought through plan.
And then you've got NATO, EU and the U S the escalation group that has fallen into professor Mersheimers.
Hey, they're going to fight to the last Ukrainians.
Dead, right?
Or just funnel these kids into the charnel house of that front on Don Bosque, and finally people are waking up.
I don't think they're doubting their cause.
They're doubting the fact that quote-unquote their partners and quote-unquote allies may not have their real interest in mind and may have other ideas that they're actually looking for.
You know, Bobby Kennedy just had this explosive interview the other day.
He was talking about, once again, the bioweapons labs.
In Ukraine, which we will get to at another time, but I think there's a lot of doubt about who they're, you know, are they really aligned with guys that have their best interests in mind?
Clearly, the parents and the young people who scrape up the money have a difference of opinion.
That's why this whole recruiting scandal is blowing up in Ukraine, because people are paying for, those that can afford it, are paying for their sons not to have to go into the meat grinder.
Ben Harnwell, I know you've got some other stuff to go through.

Steve, if I just come back though, I did see a poll in the last few days that said 55% of Ukrainians, only 55% of Ukrainians, believe that that war, that the present war, Wow.
was inevitable. I'd say 45% believe that it could have been avoided.
Wow. That's brutal.
So there will be, you know, we'll bring this, I'll find a poll and we'll bring it onto the show tomorrow and we'll go through it.
So there will be a substantial, not a majority, but a substantial element of that population that has doubts as to the righteousness.
Not righteousness is the wrong word, but the necessity of the war.
And when you're sacrificing everything, your kids, your family, your property, your jobs, your future, your livelihood, you're going to take this into stock, you know?
Why is everything I've worked for being shredded?
People close to me, what's it all about?
Was it really necessary?
And if you started off thinking, well, hang on, you know, we probably could have cut the deal with With Putin, we probably could have been a bit more prudent when it comes to NATO membership and avoided all of this.
Well, that's a reasonable speculation for rational people to make, right?
When it's an existential battle.
Quickly, to move on, because I know I don't have very much time.
Odessa.
This is reinforcing the point that the mainstream media is not telling us the truth.
Odessa we covered Odessa a couple of weeks ago right when Russia was bombing and the grain silos and Memphis if you could kindly just scroll down on this article but there you go but this is Odessa this is the reality of Odessa this is Ukrainians at the beach it's not the images that we've been that we've been massaged into thinking of when thinking of Odessa but you know that it doesn't look as if people are
are too terrifying, not on the southern coast there.
Some of what the mainstream media is feeding us is a little bit, there's a dissonance between that and the reality on the ground.
Final thing, Steve, final thing.
Memphis, if you very kindly pull up the fifth article I have.
We started off with an analysis of household contributions to the war effort.
Obviously this is just a token because as we've said on the War Room from day one, the real grift is going to be in the rebuilding of Ukraine rather than the levelling of it.
Here, if you can see Memphis, if you'd very kindly just scroll down on the article and see a picture there of some of the houses that are being, that are pipelined to be presented to Ukrainians.
This is a design that Estonia had commissioned and these are the designs.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Hang on.
I want to do this.
This one's so good, I got to save it for another time.
Because that design is very much like out in Arizona, New Mexico, Texas.
It's called a territorial.
That was the design basically of the pioneers of the 19th century when they really started to get their roots.
That's a quite American design and that's to show permanence.
So, it's outrageous.
That's already been approved.
There's your money.
If you're having a tough time with your house, if you can't get a mortgage, if you're being foreclosed on, if you have to move house because you can't afford your mortgage anymore, understand that your tax dollars will go to build those lovely houses right there in Ukraine.
That's the officially approved design, correct, Ben?
ben harnwell ▲ ● ▼
Yes, Steve.
It absolutely is.
It's the officially approved design.
So terrible.
And that's what you're going to be paying for once the griffon pivots.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
I tell you what, we commit that they're not going to pay for it.
We're going to stop these supplementals.
We've already stopped the big funding.
They're running for the hills on this because they know they don't have the votes.
Ben, where do people get to you and get all your updates?

Steve, God bless, thank you so much.

Thank you.
Fantastic job, Ben.
Let's go to Dr. Bradley Thayer.
I want to put this piece up on America from American Greatness.
Dr. Thayer, you're about to bring up something we've talked about, but I don't think focused on the specifics of it.
The true area of conflict that the American people ought to be focused on is the South China Sea, the Straits of Taiwan, and the defense of Taiwan.
Walk me through.
You've got a brilliant piece out there that says if we don't stop the aggression that the Chinese Communist Party and the PLA are forcing on us every day, we're going to be in a kinetic war.
Walk folks through the specifics and the details of the South China Sea and what the CCP is doing to us.
bradley thayer ▲ ● ▼
Sure, Steve.
It's great to join you today.
First, aggression is happening today.
The Chinese Communist Party is aggressing against not only Taiwan, Japan and Senkaku Island dispute, but the Philippines, that's happening today.
So the center of this, the locus of it, is a place broadly known as Second Thomas Shoal, where the Philippines grounded an LST, a landing ship tank.
Steve, you'll remember those from, although they've been retired in the U.S.
Navy, by the time I think you were in service, The U.S.
sold a lot of them to countries around the world, including the Philippines.
So in 1999, they grounded the LST to essentially establish their control over Second Thomas Scholl.
Second big point to keep in mind is the CCP is violating treaty agreements and international court agreements regarding territory.
The agreement that the ASEAN States Association for Southeast Asian Nations and the PRC reached, signed in 2000, came into force in 2001, called the Code of Conduct for Behavior in the South China Sea, ensured that coercive measures could not be used to resolve territorial disputes.
Also in 2016, the Permanent Court of Arbitration ruled in favor of the Philippines against China.
So the CCP, China's violating international law and norms of behavior.
That shows their willingness to aggress and that shows their willingness to aggress despite what norms or international law dictates.
Third point is we need, the U.S.
needs to stand with the Philippines now, that is today.
Since this really has started to heat up beginning on August 5th where Chinese Coast Guard vessels use water cannons to prevent Filipino resupply vessels from reaching the Filipino vessel called the LST, the Sierra Madre.
So the U.S.
Navy needs to stand with the Philippines to ensure that That the Filipinos are resupplied.
They have what they need to ensure that Filipino sovereignty is respected.
And this is recognized where the Filipinos are widely recognized as Filipino territory.
Again, that's very important to keep in mind.
China's violating directly today Filipino territory.
We also call on Antony Blinken and the Biden administration to take this immediately to the UN.
To call attention in that environment to this violation, China's coercive behavior against the Philippines.
And the U.S.
government should work with the U.S.
Navy and the Filipino government to ensure vertical resupply of this vessel or that future resupply missions are going to be escorted by the U.S.
Coast Guard or by the U.S.
Navy.
So aggression is occurring today.
conducted by the PRC, the People's Republic of China, against the Philippines.
And this is just setting the stage for moving against not only the Philippines but moving against Taiwan and their full-court press that they're taking.
They want to secure, they want to coerce the Philippines, force the Philippines to accept the demands, the illegal demands that the PRC is making against the Philippines As a way of bringing it under control and evicting the U.S.

What is the Pacific Fleet?
What's Pacific Fleet Command and what is the Biden regime doing on this right now?
What actions?
bradley thayer ▲ ● ▼
Well, nothing in terms of it.
The State Department released a statement that we stand with the Filipinos, but that's woefully insufficient.
China is pressing the Philippines now and they're pressing them hard.
And to have a simple statement from the U.S.
State Department is absolutely insufficient.
This has to be at the level of the President, and it has to be at the level of the Secretary of State, Antony Blinken.
And we're just not getting it, Steve.
This aggression, again, is occurring now.
It's occurring today.
It's only going to embolden future aggression.
If the Biden administration does not stand with the Philippines, as the Obama administration gave in another dispute in 2012 over Scarborough Shoal, where to the great discredit of the Obama administration, the Obama administration didn't stand with the Philippines.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Well, and Biden was in charge of the pivot to Asia.
This is why he's bought and paid for by the CCP and they know it.
Dr. Thayer, we've got to bounce.
I want everybody to read this article, where they go to get all of your information.
