Four, two...
Come on, cover us, we're going out.
Got it?
joe scarborough
Yes.
unidentified
Give him a gun, give him a gun, give him a gun.
Give him a gun, give him a gun, give him a gun.
Come on, come on, come on.
To the right, to the right, to the right.
Up, up, up, up.
I'm not going to be a part of this.
It does.
These guys want to be in the minority.
I think they would prefer that, because they can just vote no and yell and scream all the time.
But governing, you've got to work together.
It's a tough scenario, but there are people in there that are honorably trying to get to the right place, and then there are people in there, as you know, that like to go on the TV and are not necessarily negotiating for anything other than TV time.
How does that make you guys look?
It makes us look like a bunch of idiots.
Our Republicans will meet again on Friday morning at 10 a.m.
to try to figure out their way forward.
Jim Jordan, the House Judiciary Committee chairman, is expected to announce his bid for the speakership.
Other candidates may yet emerge, but Jordan is no sure bet.
In fact, a number of Republicans are telling me that they are not on board with Jordan's more conservative politics.
So can he get 217 votes?
Will another speaker candidate emerge or will this crisis persist?
And if it does, there's Then that essentially means no legislation can be acted upon, whether it's about Israel aid, avoiding a government shutdown, or trying to provide aid to Ukraine.
None of that can happen unless there is a speaker elected.
There's some talk about elevating the interim speaker, Patrick McHenry, giving him new power.
But at the moment, that is not happening, as Republicans are still grappling with their way forward in this historic stalemate on Capitol Hill.
...said in their documents, as you quoted, Joe, that we will kill people that seek peace.
So, I mean, how hard is it for you to say these people need to be dealt with, and all of us need to be united, and then we can figure out where to go from here?
joe scarborough
I just could not agree, Mike, more with what Reverend Al has said, because there will come a time, I am sure,
When this war is over, and when this war is over, and when there is actually a side that will negotiate for a two-state solution, people can be damn sure that when they tune in to this show, we will be pushing Israel to move toward a two-state solution.
That has been the goal of the United States, that has been the goal of a lot of prime ministers in Israel, But right now, you cannot negotiate with terrorists.
You cannot negotiate with people who burn babies.
You cannot negotiate with people who shoot their own just because they're talking about a peaceful coexistence between Israelis and Palestinians.
unidentified
This is not a peaceful coexistence. This is a peaceful coexistence. This is not a peaceful coexistence. This is not a peaceful coexistence. This is not a peaceful coexistence. This is a peaceful coexistence. This is not a peaceful coexistence.
This is not a peaceful coexistence.
This is not a peaceful coexistence. This is not a peaceful coexistence. This is not a Oh I will kill you, I will kill you guys!
Don't shoot!

mika brzezinski
Marnicol, I was hearing soundbites from some of these, I guess, backbenchers, extremists, about why Steve Scalise shouldn't have the job or whatever.
They were saying things that were so stupid and cruel and just beyond even bringing up at this table.
But don't these people see the fire that's burning around the world that they should think above themselves, perhaps, and operate?
What's going on?
unidentified
It's nice seeing an optimist this early in the day.
mika brzezinski
I'm not optimistic.
unidentified
I'm just trying to figure it out.
It's not even a case of a tyranny of the minority.
It's a tyranny of ten.
And yet in the middle of that, you get a ray of common sense from even what used to be the Republican Party.
I was listening to Chairman Mike McFaul yesterday, chair of the House Foreign Relations Committee.
And he was as upset about what is happening as we are apparently today, and as many people are today.
They lack the ability to govern, the basic ability to govern, and they don't care about it.
When you go to vote for your member of Congress, no matter who it is, no matter what party you're in, you want them to do one thing, you want them to do their job, and their job is doing something for their constituents, and they've lost that ability.
willie geist
To evacuate effectively the entire northern half of Gaza into the southern half in a 24-hour period.
unidentified
Thanks for watching!
Willie, this is an evacuation order completely unprecedented in scope, unprecedented in scale, and it appears to point to an unprecedented Israeli military operation being planned.
There are more than a million civilians who live in the northern half of Gaza.
And Israel is telling them the entire area is full of Hamas military targets.
It's going to be targeted and people for their own safety need to leave the area.
But the United Nations this morning is pleading with Israel to back down on this evacuation order, saying there is simply no way to move a million people without catastrophic humanitarian consequences.
There is no way to house them.
There is no way to feed them.
As you know, Willie, Gaza is sealed in.
Both the Egyptian and the Israeli borders are closed.
There is nowhere for these people to run.
Israel's military says it has no choice.
It has to go into Gaza.
It has to dismantle the Hamas war machine.
And it has to make sure that what happened on Saturday never happens again.
So, I'm going to show you how to do it.
This is the primal scream of a dying regime.
Bye.
steve bannon
Pray for our enemies.
unidentified
Because we're going medieval on these people.
steve bannon
I got a free shot on all these networks lying about the people.
The people have had a belly full of it.
I know you don't like hearing that.
I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it.
It's going to happen.
jake tapper
And where do people like that go to share the big lie?
unidentified
MAGA Media.
jake tapper
I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
unidentified
Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
steve bannon
If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved!
unidentified
It's Friday, 13 October, in the year of our Lord, 2023.
joe scarborough
Stephen K. Babb.
steve bannon
It's Friday, 13 October in the year of our Lord, 2023.
Of course, 716 years ago on this very date, it was Friday, 13 October, 1307.
The first investment bankers, the Knights Templar, upset their client, particularly in France, King of France, and they were arrested today, today in history.
Remember, this audience is a still point in a turning world, in a world that turns very, very rapidly.
Your task and purpose is, in this fog of war, to keep your head about you, understand exactly what we're trying to accomplish.
And how we're trying to accomplish it.
Our task and purpose is very simple, to save this republic.
And to make sure this republic puts its citizens' interest first.
That seems to be lost everywhere, not just in the imperial capital here in Washington D.C.
as the D.C.
insiders become unglued.
Just a couple of notes.
The Israelis last night gave a 24-hour notice For an evacuation of 1.1 million people from the northern part of Gaza, the Gaza Strip, and you know that is one of the most compact areas.
So one half of it, the northern part, would be essentially the size of the District of Columbia.
1.1 million people, and Egypt has already shut their border and saying they're not going to take any refugees, they're not going to take any Palestinians.
So this is still up in the air about what's going to happen, but Israel has As notified people, they're about to begin their ground campaign to dig out Hamas in northern Gaza, and particularly the tunnels, the labyrinth of networks that Gaza has.
And it doesn't look like Israel, at least, I mean, I'm sure they're trying to do hostage rescue, but there's no at least public statements about the hostages, about You know, negotiating with Hamas, etc.
They've told the Palestinians, 1.1 million people, you got to move and you have to move now.
There's been no updates on that.
We've got a lot going on up on the Hill.
Today, Jim, they've cut at least a phonic has called the conference.
I think they start right now.
It's interesting because some people think McHenry gave an order that you could go home.
There's some Republicans who are missing.
There's some Democrats that are missing.
So there's a lack of, I think, of 100% participation, at least what I'm hearing.
This Scalise's speakership run came to a historic end last night, thanks to a large part to this audience.
Another DC insider, and now it's a total free ball.
Jim Jordan is trying to put together a plan of how they can get to 217.
What you should know right now, Is that they're arguing just to do it behind closed doors, do it behind closed doors and cut deals behind closed doors.
We want radical transparency.
Don't care how messy it looks.
The American people need to see this.
This is instructive.
This is a civics lesson.
We only get more powerful.
You know, we did it publicly in January and people said, oh, it's chaotic, chaotic.
The good that came out of the tool set that came out of there is what gives you leverage.
So right now, up on Capitol Hill, they're trying to cut deals and do it privately.
It's a total free ball.
Emmers is trying to mount a run for the speakership.
Jordan, obviously, is next man up.
But you've got Mike Johnson of Louisiana.
You have a number of other individuals.
Remember, McCarthy has not moved out of the Speaker's office, the magnificent Speaker's office, Speaker of the House.
McCarthy's there.
He's holding court every night.
He's having dinners for the lobbyist and the DC cartel insiders every night.
The restoration of Kevin McCarthy is on the table.
And the McCarthyites are trying to move to do that.
Tom McClintock actually put a letter out yesterday.
They want to restore him immediately.
So there's a lot going on.
We're going to cover it all.
And most importantly, We're going to cover the hybrid warfare on the southern border of the United States.
The border that matters to us in a paramount way is the southern border of the United States of America.
Right now, a hybrid warfare invasion.
We're going to go to Michael Yan.
He's been in the Darien Gap.
He's got another warning to America about exactly what's going on.
Also, blockbuster news coming out.
Axios turned out the IDF This is an act of terror.
It cannot stand.
We heard from the administration.
There seems to have been a failure of intelligence as well.
unidentified
And we're not quite sure how we missed it.
This is an act of terror it cannot stand. We heard from the administration. There seems to have been a failure of intelligence as well. We're not quite sure how we missed it.
We're not quite sure how Israel missed it.
We know that Egypt had warned the Israelis three days prior.
that an event like this could happen.
We know that this had been planned perhaps as long as a year ago.
The other concern is escalation in the region.
We know that Hezbollah has 100,000 rockets that would overload the Iron Dome.
We know that in Syria we have ISIS.
We know that Lebanon with Hezbollah.
We know that Iraq has Shia proxies and Iran-backed proxies.
We know Iran itself has in large part funded this and provided the weapons for it.
We don't want to see escalation.
We want to see this contained in Gaza.
However, we're very concerned about the fidelity of our intelligence and the escalation of a conflict in the Middle East that could turn into a global jihad movement in Israel.
About 15 seconds later it was all over and we did it.
But I'll never forget I'll never forget that Bibi Netanyahu let us down.
That was a very terrible thing.
I will say that.
And so when I see sometimes the intelligence, you talk about the intelligence or you talk about some of the things that went wrong over the last week.
They've got to straighten it out because they're fighting potentially a very big force.
They're fighting potentially Iran.
And when they have People saying the wrong things.
Everything they say is being digested by these people because they're vicious and they're smart.
And boy, are they vicious because nobody's ever seen the kind of sight that we've seen.
Nobody's ever seen it.
But they cannot play games.
So we were disappointed by that.
Very disappointed.
But we did the job ourselves and it was absolute precision.
Magnificent, beautiful job.
And then...
BB tried to take credit for it.
That wasn't good.
That didn't make me feel too good, but that's alright.
So they gotta strengthen themselves up.
steve bannon
Okay, that's about the Solemania.
A lot of people are upset.
I shouldn't say a lot of people.
That would be incorrect.
They're trying to make a big deal about that.
The globalists are trying to suck you into another massive war in the Middle East.
Chinese Communist Party is sitting there laughing at us.
Evergrande is collapsing.
All the Ponzi scheme of commercial real estate in mainland China, which they've grifted off of, and the families that run the CCP have made billions or tens of billions of dollars, is all collapsing.
They're making a huge move in Taiwan on this election that's going to take place in January.
Trying to get the old KMT, which was the nationalist party that's now pro-CCP because it's been so infiltrated, trying to get them to kind of drop a bunch of candidates, come together and have a rapprochement party.
At the same time, they are working, it's the CCP that is working with the mullahs in Persia to make sure that the United States is sucked in to another Uh, forever war in the Mideast.
Coming, just coming out of 20 years in the Mideast with 8, you know, 10, if you count the contractors, what, 20,000, 10, 15, 20,000 dead, 50, 75,000 wounded, 9 trillion dollars, as Brown University tells us.
Net present value of the cost of that war.
Trying to get sucked in again.
President Trump's has given you reality.
McCaul there, in it, has given you reality.
The Egyptians, first off, it's a massive failure of American intelligence along as bad as 9-11.
As bad as Pearl Harbor.
For us.
Forget the Israelis.
For us.
This is the group that you want to, that now wants to go, and the deep state administration is pushing, pushing, pushing, pushing, pushing.
You seen Hannity last night?
The Fox, the TV for stupid people, Prime Times, it's just, they're in war.
They're back to where they were with Bush, you know, spreading the lies.
That's what they were, lies.
Bald-faced lies.
To get us into Iraq.
With the same intensity.
He's yelling at guests if you disagree with him.
Hey, sorry you don't like it, bro.
I don't remember your kids serving over there.
So here's the role you have to say anything.
Nothing.
I'm so sick of these people that don't make any sacrifice.
I'm so sick of these people that want to send your sons and daughters on these foreign battlefields immediately to die.
Now, that's not the blockbuster story.
By the way, we're going to get to Jan.
There's a lot exploding on Capitol Hill.
Like I said, Jim Jordan's making his move.
Now, the old Jim Jordan would be terrific, but Jim Jordan 2.0, not totally.
First off, he's got a terrible staff.
Let me be blunt.
Not aggressive on the impeachment.
They're all owned by Google and the big tech companies.
This is why, you know, Jordan's been playing footsies with big tech.
So the oligarchs and tech think they got it in here.
Can't happen.
Number one, your plan on the CR is a disaster.
You have to draw a hard line.
If Biden and these guys want to shut down the illegitimate regime, shut it down.
What's the plan on the evasion of the southern border?
What is the plan for the massive problem we have in debt and spending?
Where is it?
Man up.
Show me.
Don't tell me you got a CR and I get 1% cut and we're gonna go through that.
You're already laying out a plan to an omnibus.
To show you how nervous they are, they haven't released, normally by last night they've released, Treasury doesn't update every month on really the cash balances, essentially.
The one they do in October is a summary for the year.
And I keep saying, I don't think they got five trillion dollars in revenue coming in.
I think it was less because of a slowing economy and particularly in capital gains taxes.
So the deficit's even bigger.
And I think they're over there trying to play games, accounting games about student debt and everything else to show that it's not two trillion dollars.
Deficit.
And our cash balance and how much we've added since the debt deal was done.
That puts it back on these group of clowns.
We're not running around and doing anything because you got to put out a resolution on Israel.
Israel's just given an edict.
And I guess somebody in the Biden regime signed off on it.
This is why the support for Israel as much as they're an ally.
And that we love Israel and the Israelis.
We help them best by being a good partner.
One of the things was to do the intelligence, make sure that they knew.
Were we fooled?
Did we give them the information?
Are you telling me that Egyptian intelligence, as much money as we give Egypt, Egyptian intelligence had this, and I'm just to believe they went a couple of days on something that was planned, obviously a year in advance, and now we know they practiced right there, they practiced in broad daylight.
It beggars belief.
You expect me to believe that?
Their intelligence services were killed?
So we have to have a frank conversation.
Also, when I say contingent, think of what's going to happen globally when you go on and dig it out block by block.
1.1, I would respectfully submit that moving 1.1 million people in the United States of America, the good transportation system we have in 24 hours will be, hmm, let me think about this.
This might be a problem.
Look at Gaza.
Look at Gaza.
They're packed in there.
It's not a garden spot.
Not just that.
Where are they supposed to go?
Egypt says close the border.
Egypt says we're not taking them.
unidentified
We're broke.
steve bannon
How are you going to take them?
I oppose us now writing huge checks like we did in Syria all over for these massive refugee camps.
Why are we on another open-ended hook?
What's the plan?
Is this just going to happen?
unidentified
They're all going to turn to Uncle Sugar.
steve bannon
Which means they're going to turn to you.
This is why you finally have a say-so.
What we did the cold open about is to make sure you have a say-so.
And they hate it.
It's chaos.
It's terrible.
The world's on fire.
unidentified
No, no, no.
steve bannon
This audience and the deplorables, the MAGA movement, the America First, is the still point in a turning world.
Unlike what America and the deep state and the administrative state and our elites have done, You know, essentially since World War Two in Korea, in Vietnam, in Iraq, in Afghanistan, the big four.
We're going to think this one through beforehand.
We're not going to have any Pentagon papers dropped on us 10 years into the conflict with 50,000 kids dead and say, oh my gosh, look at that.
The Pentagon lied to us.
Not just the Pentagon lied to us.
The Pentagon lied to us because the politicians wanted to put forward the lies.
The political class.
unidentified
Yep.
steve bannon
We're not going to have the Washington Post do the Afghanistan papers, which nobody read.
We made a big deal about it, but nobody read it.
That goes into, because I sat there as President Trump's representative on the National Security Council when we try to get out of 17.
They will look you in the eye, and they will lie to you.
When you ask them for data and information, they will provide information and data, and after you sit there and go, well, hang on for a second.
That doesn't make, let's go back to page five.
That doesn't make sense.
They go, hubbada, hubbada, hubbada, hubbada, hubbada.
They will lie to you.
It's just not incompetence, and most of them are incompetent.
It's directly, they will look you in the eye and lie to you.
So we're not going to have an Afghanistan paper 20 years afterwards when all the kids have been dead and all the family's broken.
We're not going to do that.
And we're not going to allow a group of clowns like Cheney and Rove and Bush to lie to you with a ball-faced lie and have the cheerleaders over at Murdoch News, let's go, let's go, weapons of mass destruction.
Don't you feel like fools for buying that?
We didn't have alternatives at the time.
That was just a psy-op.
We're not doing that.
We're not doing that.
The people that have to pay for, the people that underwrite it, you know, normally the underwriters in the security get a say so.
So the underwriters of American security are not the people over at Murdoch News.
They're not the people at the Pentagon.
They're not this group of clowns up here in Capitol Hill.
It's not the oligarchs on Wall Street.
It's not these, these, uh, you know, on the spectrum, 11 year olds in Silicon Valley, it's you, the American people, because you're going to pay the butcher's bill.
And you're going to pay, and you're going to underwrite the cost of it, which is all going to come back.
You have to do this.
We have to get Ukraine.
We need another $100 billion.
We have to do refugee camps.
We have to do it.
We don't have to do anything except defend this country and her border and her citizens.
That's what we must do.
Everything else, we'll think it through.
Let me repeat.
The only thing that matters now is the defense of the United States from a hybrid invasion and to make sure that we don't play the games that are crushing us, the existential threat of 33 trillion going to 50 trillion of debt to make your children debt slaves to world's capital markets.
We're not going to play the games anymore and we don't care if you like it or you don't like it.
You're going to have to live with it.
Because America First, the Hobbits, the folks out there with the pitchforks, they have the power.
All next in The War Room.
unidentified
Let's take down the CCD!
War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Babb.
Don't have it yet.
steve bannon
Okay, fine.
We're gonna get up in a second.
Let me know when we got it.
I gotta have Lindsey Graham wanting to go in and bomb.
Persia, let's go to, um...
unidentified
Let's go.
steve bannon
He's been in the Darien Gap.
Michael Yan.
First, I'll pull back the camera.
You've been all over the world.
You're going to have 1.1 million Palestinian refugees.
At least the ones that leave.
Maybe some hang out.
Because there's going to be a lot of blood.
If the Israelis do what they say they're going to do, and, you know, when the Israelis say they're going to do something, they normally do it.
They're going to go dig out Hamas.
Just for the particularly people who have come as new listeners, Frank Gaffney, Seb Gorka, myself, years ago at Breitbart, before Breitbart, making films about it, then at Breitbart, then with President Trump, you know, we spent, I don't know, a decade.
Working this problem on the Muslim Brotherhood is this not Hamas is just one wing of the Muslim Brotherhood.
You have infiltration here in the United States.
You have sleeper cells the United States.
This is why President Trump one of the first things we did the box.
What was I think in the first week the travel ban and remember the meltdown to close the airports the whole thing and Stephen Miller's a devil and Steve Bannon's a demon.
The travel ban was upheld by the Supreme Court of the United States.
We thought that through.
And not one terror hit by radical jihadis in President Trump's entire time there.
President Trump knew what he had to do.
Think about it.
He destroyed ISIS.
They said ISIS was going to take generations.
He destroyed ISIS.
The physical caliphate.
The physical caliphate.
That Obama and those guys told him on the briefings, this thing's going to take a generation.
It's a generational problem.
Uh-uh.
Gone in, I don't know, 15 months.
Gone.
Bye-bye.
Soleimani took Soleimani out, the field commander, right, for the Persians, and had Bibi stiff him at the last second.
You gotta get that on the table.
Are we not supposed to have an adult conversation?
We're going to get sucked into a ground war over here?
We're going to get sucked into a, when Hezbollah starts coming in hot?
We're just supposed to, you know, just go along.
Everything's great.
Everything's not great.
Look at Axios' story.
Yesterday's a bombshell.
And of course it got buried.
Axios reports that the IDF, wait for this, not just the Egyptians tell them in advance, a couple of days in advance, which I think American intelligence knew it far, far, far before that.
That, um, The IDF knew this on Friday afternoon.
The IDF knew about a potential raid, military incursion, Friday afternoon.
Never took it up the chain of command.
They made a decision with the other intelligence services.
They didn't know if they had enough intelligence.
They knew it.
Axios reported the story.
It's up on my getter right now.
So if this is reality, is that a team that's ready to go in and dig out Hamas?
Hamas is dug in there.
They got a whole city underneath it in the labyrinth of these networks and caves.
And these guys will fight to the death because they think they're going to heaven with, you know, 42 virgins.
We're back to this again.
And Hezbollah, President Trump calls Hezbollah smart, and all of a sudden, criss-cross, all these guys are, oh, this is terrible.
They are smart, and they're tough.
And they're a tough fighting force.
You have to level with the American people.
What are you supposed to say, Christopher?
What are you supposed to say?
Oh, they're dumb.
They're irrelevant.
They can't.
unidentified
Let's go.
steve bannon
Let's run up there and let's do it.
This is the mentality.
The Republican neocon mentality is what's gotten us in all this stuff.
All these nightmares.
The 20 years.
Why nobody shows up to hear you talk, Christy.
Nobody... The Keebler elves.
Nobody cares.
Nikki Haley.
It's all just... It's all just the old nomenclature, which destroyed this country.
And not one of these folks up here running yet for speakership says, hey, here's what we're going to do.
No CR.
We're going back to pre-COVID spending levels.
We're going to cut the deficits down to zero as quickly as possible.
We're going to figure out how to deal with the 33 trillion.
We're going to stop the Biden regime everywhere possible.
They want to spend this, particularly Senate overseas.
Ukraine gets nothing.
Gets zero.
Gets zero.
We're going to impeach my Yorkers, we're going to stop, we're going to cut off every bit of money at DHS for all the other stuff they want to do, except for securing the border.
And when we say securing the border, it means zero.
Those photos you see last night with Rainford, just over every night, every night, every night, every night.
They're playing you for fools.
Look at what happens, watch the next 24 hours, 48 hours about folks moving out of Gaza, northern Gaza, moving out the 1.1 million.
I just want you to think about, I don't know, New York, Chicago, Los Angeles.
Because the day's coming, the federal government, ICE told us 5.7 million.
5.7 million illegal alien invaders here in the country that you're underwriting with medical care, all of it.
That's not even the ones that got away.
That's the ones at least had enough courtesy to check in with the concierge service.
5.7 million.
Now we know there's 8 to 10 million here.
Think of that number for a second.
Think of the scale of that number.
And they have to go home.
Are we going to take them down and get a sandwich and a pickle and a bag of chips and a coke?
And say, here's a bus ticket.
We will send you back to Juarez.
Good luck.
Hope it works out for you.
You think that's how it's going to play out?
You understand what's going to happen to this country when that moment comes?
Of which they want.
This is what they're gaming the system.
They think you're fools.
They want your attention diverted.
They want your attention diverted.
This is the misdirection play.
Our attention is not going to be diverted.
And we don't care who likes it or who doesn't like it.
Because they're coming to you for your sons and daughters.
Remember that.
Moloch has to be fed.
They're coming to you for your sons and daughters.
They're coming to you for your sons and daughters.
They want the most precious asset you've got.
They'll take your sons and daughters first, then they're gonna come for your money.
You're gonna underwrite it.
That 33 trend.
What did Iraq get us?
What did Afghanistan get us?
What did Vietnam get us?
What do you think the honored dead of those three wars would tell us right now?
Take your time and think this through.
Take your time, think it through, and put America first.
That's from the grave they would tell us.
Milley couldn't answer the question the other day, was it worth it?
Mr. Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, was it worth it?
Simple question, was it worth it?
Couldn't answer it.
Said he couldn't answer it.
How do you think that the wives that lost husbands, the girlfriends that lost lovers, the parents that lost daughters, serving their country, the best that we had volunteered for that.
Yeah, they didn't go to Harvard, and they didn't go to MIT, and they didn't go to the University of Chicago, or they didn't go to USC.
Some did, but most didn't.
It's the best we had in that generation.
We threw it away.
You know how he threw it away?
The same cheerleading you see on Fox News tonight.
Same cheerleading.
Same... Lindsey Graham.
You know how he threw it away?
Let me repeat this.
Their lives were thrown away.
Their lives were thrown away.
In service to their country.
In service to their country.
And we're right back in the same... We're talking about Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood and Hezbollah.
We're sucked back into the same thing.
The same exact thing.
They said, oh, Steve, they kept me from terrorism.
Donald Trump kept you from terrorism, because he dropped the hammer on the most, because you got, just like here.
You see Ben Burquham, how he started this?
He's checking where you're from.
Senegal, where you from?
They're all Muslim, 99% Muslim.
They're not checking anything.
They're not checking anything.
You see the photos of Jeff Rainforth?
Those aren't refugees.
They look like they're military-age men.
They're hanging out like my nephews when they're in the army.
They come with their buddies.
They look like they're the guys who work like small unit combat.
They're like high-fiving and hanging out in great shape.
Not the first time they met.
And clothes don't look like they've struggled to come over, you know, 9,000 miles of bad terrain.
We're being invaded.
Up in your face, you're being invaded.
What don't... And Conservative Inc.
I don't care what you think, what your ideas are.
We're being invaded.
We must address the invasion of this nation.
We must address the deportation of the invaders.
We must address what they're trying to do on Capitol Hill.
They're going to call a supplemental of this, supplemental of that, supplemental of that.
They're going to come to you for the bill for the refugees.
You're going to underwrite that.
Oh, where's America?
Can America step up here and help the UN?
Can you get a couple of billion dollars?
Be in here, be in there.
Doesn't matter.
Would a billion matter for your hometown?
Would that maybe make things a little easier in your home?
If you're gonna spend it, why not spend it in America?
If you're gonna burn it, why not burn it here?
If they're gonna graft it, Zelensky's gonna take 10 or 20% off the top, why not let the politicians here take 10 or 20% off the top?
Instead of burning it.
We are at a crossroads, and it couldn't get more dangerous, because they're trying to suck you in.
The Wall Street Journal, Murdoch's paper, this, remember, this is for the knitted brown, you know, the intellectuals on the, you know, Paul Gigot and these whiffenpoofs from Yale, all up there on the, they think great thoughts.
This is the great thought club.
The great thoughts.
Wake up, Washington!
Wake up, Washington!
Are you, you're the wide awakes.
This audience has had a great awakening.
And the great awakening is, Wall Street Journal, you suck.
Right?
You've gotten us into wars.
You're neoliberal neocons.
Wake up, Washington.
A second regional war calls for an urgent bipartisan defense effort.
Bipartisan.
Urgent.
We must pick a speaker today.
Let's get McCarthy back.
We must have the restoration of McCarthy today.
We must let the DC cartel today run things.
michael yon
Why?
steve bannon
Oh, it's urgent, but I have to put out a resolution.
I don't think the IDF is waiting for your resolution.
Last time I looked, they gave a 1.1 million people to say, get out of town because we're coming.
And if you're hiding the Hamas terrorist, you're going to suffer the same fate.
I don't think they're waiting for our resolution.
I don't think that's necessary that we have to get a cartel insider up there.
Let me turn to Michael Yan.
Michael, pull the camera back.
Tell us what's going on.
You've been following this all over the world.
What's happening?
michael yon
Well, Steve, I'm back out of Darien Gap.
I'm back up in Panama City right now next to the vital terrain of the Panama Canal.
As you know, Ben Birkbaum was just down here again with Oscar Blue.
Interestingly, you know, those two men are very strong, very fit, and every time they come here, they get sick.
Oscar just brushes up against the Darien Gap, or, you know, one time on a trip before last when he came here, didn't even go into the jungle, and he ended up bedridden.
There are a lot of people sick coming through the Darien Gap.
And when you see people like Ben Birkwam and Oscar Blue getting sick every time they come, That's a pretty big deal.
These are studs, right?
And so I've been out with Ben quite a lot and Oscar in the jungle.
That's a big deal.
The Imbara Indians and Kuna Indians and Munon Indians down there, their children are getting sick.
They're getting very serious malaria.
You know, there's different types of malaria.
There's a terrible type that's going around here.
And not to mention dengue and many, many other things.
Not to mention tuberculosis.
And now we're in a position where the dairying gap is opening up even wider.
Right now, 3,000 to 5,000 people are coming through every day.
And in August, about 82,000 came through according to the Panamanian government.
That's what they told me.
82,000 in August.
Last month in September, I don't know.
I was here and I still don't know the number, but I'm guessing it was about 100,000 because the numbers were clearly higher.
And we were seeing 3,000 to 5,000 on many days, right?
And so they've been running on average about 60 buses per day.
The buses will hold roughly 50, depending on how many children.
The president of Costa Rica and Panama were out in the Darien on October 6th, and actually they canceled my helicopter that I had chartered to go out there that day, so I had to go the next day.
But they then announced that they're going to grow from 60 to 200 buses.
200 buses.
steve bannon
Just hang on, 6200, just hang on there.
We're going to go to a break.
We're going to bring Michael Yan right back.
The Israeli army just announced, let me give you this breaking news, Judean Samaria, which we refer to it here in the war room.
Of course, the secular guys call it the West Bank, has just been declared a closed military area.
A closed military area.
That's Judean Samaria.
The West Bank.
That includes Bethlehem, Jerusalem, Jericho.
Right on the banks of the Jordan River.
Heating up in the Holy Land.
Next in the War Room.
unidentified
We will fight till they're all gone.
We rejoice when there is no more.
Let's take down the CCP.
Come just under seven hours from now, midnight.
So I can't be more specific.
You can understand one doesn't talk about military operations before they happen.
But I can tell you what the goal is.
The goal is to free Israel from this terrorist base, this massive terrorist base on our southern border.
I mean, it's a bit like, you know, ISIS, remember, took over territory in Iraq and Syria and turned them into kingdoms of terrorism.
So Hamas has done the same in Gaza.
And this is over.
We didn't want this war, Jose.
They started it.
But we will finish it.
And we'll finish it on our terms.
And when this is over, there won't be a terrorist organization in Gaza which has the capability or the desire to hit Israel the way they did on Saturday morning.
And I think that new reality will not only be good for Israel, but it'll be good for the Palestinians in Gaza that won't have to live under this rule of terrorism.
And it's also good for peace in the Middle East, because if you weaken the enemies of peace, maybe you strengthen those who want peace and reconciliation.
steve bannon
Okay, welcome back.
By the way, breaking news, Israeli bombing continues on the outskirts of the Lebanese towns, and they've got like five towns right on the, right near the border in the north where Hezbollah is.
So this thing is, how do I say this?
You know, you got war and the rumors of war all throughout.
Michael Yan, having been throughout the entire world, seeing this, what can people expect of this next wave of this invasion of our own country?
michael yon
Well, there's a reason why I'm not going to Israel and wasting my time over there taking a chance getting shot and filled with vaxxed blood.
I mean, our border is, it doesn't exist.
And I'm down here in Panama again.
I just left the Darien Gap.
They're building new camps down there.
One camp is big enough for 15,000 people.
I sent you drone footage.
that was from a few days ago.
And we joined it about two weeks ago too, it's already tripled in size.
There's nobody in that camp yet, but it's still growing and they're preparing it.
Right now we have three to 5,000 coming through a day and it's increasing.
It's going to at least triple.
The president of Costa Rica and Panama were down here on October 6th and announced that they're increasing from roughly 60 buses a day to about 200.
And now, as the aliens come through Darien Gap, this system is becoming much more efficient, right?
The organizational structure is streamlining.
And for instance, now, the aliens used to stay in the camp sometimes for several days, even a couple of weeks.
Now they usually stay in for just several hours, maybe overnight.
If the ones who don't have money, they'll keep them for about five days.
They'll let them work around the camp to pay for their bus ticket, which is now $60 to leave Darien on a bus, go up Highway 1 and cross the Costa Rican border.
They just agreed to this on October 6th, and they started it last Sunday.
You can cross right into Costa Rica now without a passport and go straight up on the bus to the Nicaraguan border.
This is very smooth now, right?
It's smooth from Colombia into Panama, and it's smooth right on through Costa Rica now.
Now, they're building two new camps, not just the one for 15,000 people.
There's another one that I haven't droned yet.
I've been out in that area many, many times, but now they're starting a new camp.
The Indians are out there with machetes cutting down these new camps.
Again, I would be surprised if you don't see 10,000 a month by the end of January when dry season is here and the camps start getting filled up.
And by 2025, I would not be surprised at all to see a million a month coming through dairy.
And that's why I come, let me say it again, a million a month, I would not be surprised.
There's only a few tweaks that you need to do to reach that level of intensity.
One is, it's just two bridges, right?
And one of those bridges is, it will be built this year, Or in 2024.
It will be built during the dry season.
They build the bridges during dry season, which will start in about January.
So they'll build that bridge.
And then there's another bridge that needs to be built and which the U.S.
Army could build in one or two days, maybe a day, actually.
So, I mean, these are not serious bridges, but that's all you need to increase the flow from, say, 300,000 a month to a million a month.
They can easily do it now.
They can easily do 300,000 a month now.
With the current infrastructure, that's no problem at all.
Or, you know, with these two new camps.
So we're looking at an invasion.
Again, the reason I come to Darien Gap so much, and I don't waste time going off to places like Ukraine, distractions, or the distraction of Israel, they're trying to suck us in.
Where are these aliens from Gaza gonna go?
I already see people from Gaza coming through all the time.
They tell me they're from Gaza, right?
Now, you gotta keep in mind, Venezuela, most of the aliens coming through now are from Venezuela.
There are a lot of Hezbollah in Venezuela, and they speak Spanish fluently.
Native Spanish.
They've got Venezuelan body language.
They come across right as Venezuelans, right?
And you'll never know the difference.
And Peru as well.
There's some Hamas down South America, but there's a lot of Hezbollah.
And they're coming across through Darien Gap.
That doesn't even include the Chinese.
I mean, so this is, you know, we've got, you know, basically half of Haiti seems to have come through at this point.
Cuba as well.
You know, people from at least 140 countries, Ben Birkwam and Oscar Blue have very courageously gone into the Darien Gap repeatedly, and they've seen exactly what I see.
It's growing.
And the thing is, is you have to spend time down here.
The reason I spend so much time in Darien is because I recognize this as the major invasion route to the United States.
If you can get your feet anywhere into South America, you can then get anywhere in the United States or Canada very easily within like a week or two, right?
All you have to do is get from Africa or Asia into South America, or if you're already in South America, get up to Columbia, go through the Darien Gap, and then you're in the United States.
steve bannon
Michael, we've got to bounce right now.
Give me, how do people get to you, get to all your footage, get to all your reporting down there?
michael yon
Well, I'm on X every day, on Substack as well, and Locals.com, and so I go on X pretty often now, or, you know, formerly known as Twitter.
I'm also on Getter, and, you know, all the likely suspects, of course.
steve bannon
What's your Substack?
How do people get to your Substack?
michael yon
Just my name, Michael Young, on Substack, Yankee Oscar November.
And I'm there every day.
I stay downrange after this.
I'm heading over to Japan on issues related to Taiwan.
I'm not going to get diverted over to Israel or Ukraine.
You know, I'm going back to Taiwan and Japan when I leave here, and then I'll probably go back here or to the Netherlands, which also is vital terrain.
steve bannon
Okay, brother.
Thank you.
Look forward to having you back on here.
Michael Yan down, just came out of the Darien Gap down in Panama.
Thank you very much, sir.
Panama's got that.
Remember, the former military base has been turned over to NGOs, the UN.
That's what Michael's talking about, these massive staging areas.
They're staging the invasion of the United States.
It's a very well thought through logistics effort, but they don't want you to focus on that.
They want you to focus on the rest of the world.
We're focused on stopping the invasion of the United States of America.
Full stop.
Once the people on Capitol Hill start understanding that, and the debt, and cutting the deficit, and stopping the spending, then maybe we can make some progress.
Maybe we can make some progress.
They're still throwing their temper tantrums up there.
The cartel doesn't want to cede power.
They're going to have to.
