Yeah.
ben bergquam

It's the frontline of the invasion.
steve bannon
This is the primal scream of a dying regime.
Pray for our enemies.
Because we're going medieval on these people.
You're not going to free shot all these networks lying about the people.
ben bergquam
The people have had a belly full of it.
steve bannon

It's going to happen.

unidentified
War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
steve bannon
It's Tuesday, 2 January, Year of Our Lord 2023. Excuse me, 2024.
We are kicking off one of the most important years in modern American history in the most important year in the 21st century.
But in doing that we've got a January that's going to be actually probably one of the craziest months.
You know the saying there are decades in which nothing happens and there are Months or years in which decades happen.
Well, this month is going to be absolutely extraordinary.
We're going to lay out a calendar for you about this.
In fact, do we have it?
Actually, I see Denver has it.
Now, this is subject to change.
This is very much a rough draft, and I ask Mo and Grace that we get it up in all the chat rooms.
This is for illustration purposes only, but it'll actually walk you through Of how our coverage is going to go, because there's one monumental event after the other.
President Trump, massive filings at the Supreme Court.
Jack Smith has come back and hit President Trump pretty hard.
Julie Kelly's going to be here to talk about that.
President Trump came out about the J6 committee, about where's the documents, where's the evidence.
Because he needs to use that in this trial of Jack Smith.
A whole firestorm over that.
You have all these filings to the Supreme Court.
You have everything that's happening on the 14th Amendment.
In addition, Mike Johnson is going to go to the border.
Speaker Johnson is going to go to the border, I don't know, for a photo op.
I think it's tomorrow.
Ben Berquam's down there.
We're going to go to Ben in a second.
Rosemary Jenks has got a new group up to hold Speaker Johnson and others accountable because this is the year of accountability and action.
Then you've got the most important thing, is the government's going to shut down.
You don't shut down the border, the government runs out of money on the evening of the 19th.
They're not back Until next week.
Oh, by the way, the day they get back, it's a under oath, behind closed doors deposition of Fauci on the 8th and 9th.
And Natalie Winters is doing a lot of work to break that down.
You've got town halls with President Trump.
You have debates without President Trump.
You have the Iowa caucus, New Hampshire primary, RNC meeting, of which Charlie Kirk and others are going to try to work to try to toss Uh toss ronald mcdaniel, uh up there in the middle of the month You see something called the uh, the I think it's the 9th of january.
You have the machine trial In in georgia, which is not getting enough.
Uh attention mike lindell's gonna come in here to update us on that Uh, so we got a lot to go through including colonel brad miller Has led a group to hold the senior flag officers and defense executives accountable for the vaccine and everything they've done to destroy the military.
He's going to be on.
So we're packed today.
Let's go to the capital of the Rio Grande Valley.
That would be McAllen, Texas.
Ben Burquam's there.
Ben, we only can play a small part of your footage over the weekend.
Not only do we have an invasion of this country, we have an invasion of this country from every nation on Earth.
And when folks in Egypt are showing up, which is an ally of the United States, and just kind of wanted in.
So yeah, I got the ticket.
I'm going to Boston.
I'm going to Bloomington, Indiana, etc.
You got Chinese, a lot of fighting age male in there.
Tell me what you found that ended 2023 and began 2024.
ben bergquam
Well, Steve, I've said it many times when I'm on with you.
Every time I come down to the border, sadly, it's worse than I've seen it before.
We started in San Diego six days ago.
This is our sixth day.
We're going to end in Eagle Pass with a congressional representation, as you mentioned, tomorrow.
And every stop along the way from Hakuba, California, to Lukeville, Arizona, and everywhere in between has been an absolute disaster.
I just want to show you, you mentioned from everywhere around, you saw those guys from Egypt.
We've got passports from China.
We've got passports from Ukraine.
We've got passports from Bangladesh.
We have currency from Turkey.
I met several people coming in from Turkey.
They're dropping their money as they come in.
It's an absolute disaster.
So to Chicago, to New York, to all of these cities across America, if you thought it was bad before, you ain't seen nothing yet.
It's on a scale that most people can't comprehend.
That's partly why we're here in McAllen.
That's why I have my friend with me, Carlos Arellano.
He was actually part, when we talk about this, it's not just the fighting age men, the militaries that we're inviting into our country.
We're also talking about the largest human trafficking operation in global history right now that's being orchestrated by Joe Biden and the Democrats.
He was one of the, the unaccompanied, he worked in the unaccompanied minors program.
He was one of the escorts working for them for seven years.
And the information he has is just shocking.
unidentified
It's truly shocking.
steve bannon
Tell us about the unaccompanied minor program.
You resigned.
Why did you quit?
carlos arellano
So I quit because I got an email stating that children were being handed over to the wrong people.
And the Biden administration has confirmed that there's currently 85,000 children missing.
And by missing, there's no address, there's no phone numbers for them.
And the addresses that were there before, when you go visit them, they lead to strip clubs, they lead to empty empty fields, cornfields, parking lots, a moss strip, and anything you can think of other than a home.
So 85,000 confirmed missing.
And when I got my email stating that within my company where all they do is move children around, the email stated that we have over six weeks' worth of IDs not matching, meaning the person who showed up at the airport baggage claim to pick the child up was not the right person.
So that issue Those children are not accounted for in the 85,000 missing.
So the 85,000 missing is from data given out by the federal government before this email went out.
So the number is way much higher than 85,000 children missing.
And we're on from South Texas.
steve bannon
Oh, go ahead.
carlos arellano
I was just going to say, where I'm from in South Texas, there's 249 shelters for unaccompanied children in the United States, and more than half of those are in South Texas, in the Rio Grande Valley.
steve bannon
So, let me get this right.
When you say unaccompanied, they have to have papers that show exactly who they're going to be handed off to, which is a designated guardian or parent, is that correct?
carlos arellano
Yeah, but the issue also is that you had babies being moved.
I moved, the youngest I moved was a three-month-old.
And this three-month-old, how do they tell you who they're going to, you know?
How do they tell you that they have an uncle in New York City or an aunt in Chicago?
There's no way for a three-month-old to tell you.
And I moved a three-month-old at the airport we're at right now, and that's what you usually see here.
But the thing is, they're getting a lot more careful about things.
And just a while ago, there was escorts near us, and they looked like they were frantically texting management saying, hey, there's cameras at the airport, so watch out whenever you guys come here to drop children off.
ben bergquam
And Steve, if I can jump in too.
Carlos, if you can talk, one of the things they don't want is they don't want to lose the contracts.
And so this is, Carlos, if you can talk about that real quick.
So when they hand, when you guys, if somebody handed somebody off to the wrong person, what would happen?
carlos arellano
You were always told never, the last case scenario is to bring the child back.
So, if you're in New Orleans, you're in New York, and you're still heading more north, because I've dropped off children in Rhode Island, Vermont, Maine, I've dropped off children in Wisconsin, Wyoming, all those northern states, and the word always is, my flight got delayed or canceled in DC, and we still needed to board one last flight to go further north, the word was always, you're already in DC,
You're going to have to keep going north with the child because it's too far to bring the child back.
So it's drop them off at the nearest shelter in Maine or drop them off with whoever it is they're going to.
Even though they're showing signs of possible trafficking, it's just still drop the child off.
steve bannon
OK, hang on a second.
Ben, just hang on right there with Carlos.
We're going to take a short break.
Ben is going to hang with us this morning.
We're going to bring Rosemary Jenks in, formerly of Numbers USA.
She's got a new group up about accountability, particularly from members of Congress.
Look, it's very simple.
Ben Burkhardt is going to be their speaker, John Snamar.
Either shut the border down or shut the government down.
OK?
Either close the border or close the government.
Can't be more happy talk about this.
This is an invasion.
It's only getting worse.
All everybody's doing is talking about it.
They can't operate without money.
You don't have a border right now.
No border, no country.
Short commercial break.
Back in the war room in a moment.
unidentified
Spread the word all through Hong Kong.
We will fight till they're all gone.
We rejoice when there's no more.
Let's take down the CCP.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bamm.
steve bannon
In the second hour, we get into some of the capital markets, geopolitics.
Colonel Brad Mill is going to join us about this kind of revolt of veterans about the situation at the Pentagon, particularly about the VACs, the mandates, and other things.
People kind of had a belly full of this.
You're seeing a lot of people that said, hey, I'm tired of this.
I'm tired of the evasion of the country.
I'm tired of what they're doing to our great institutions.
I'm tired of how this deal's rolling, and people are finally saying, I've had enough of this, and I'm going to start taking action.
And that's what we're all about here, as you know.
And something I said on the John Fredericks Radio today, the frontline troops in this movement are the precinct strategy people.
I want to give you a hat tip.
For everybody that's been a precinct committeeman, it was so great when we do these live events.
It looks like half the hands are precinct committeemen.
Also, the school boards.
The one thing that people have to understand when people run for school boards and get in these school board fights and when they do these precinct committee, you're not welcome with open arms.
You're really getting a taste of what it's going to take to change this country because whether the precinct level or on these school boards, they're just there to thwart what you want to do.
They are holding on to power and they're not prepared to give it up.
You're going to have to dig them out of there.
We've got a long, tough fight ahead.
Talking about this long, tough fight ahead, we've put together this preliminary calendar.
Now, it's just a draft, okay?
And the staff's done a great job in my madness when I want to shift stuff around at the last second.
But let's get it up there, Denver.
I really want to thank Grace and Captain Bannon.
But I thought it was important to highlight this monumental year 2024 and also, quite frankly, a January like no other.
It is incredible.
The amount of major events that are happening that will have a world impact.
One thing that's buried.
I want to make sure it's not lost.
I think it's on the 9th of January.
There's a thing I put in.
I put the machine trial in Georgia.
I asked Mike Lindell about this because people over the weekend have been telling me that this is the real deal and something to Rutherford has been fighting this.
So Mike on our calendar.
What is this thing about people should know also President Trump's teams put together a tremendous compendium of the battleground states of how the election was stolen.
I think we're going to be able to help promulgate that.
I don't know if later this afternoon or tomorrow, but I'm trying to get people like Christina Bob and Liz Harrington and others to help me walk through that.
I think it'd be very illuminating.
Also, we've got the Julie Kellys on.
President Trump's on a roll about this January 6th.
Where's the evidence?
Where are the depositions?
What did Benny Thompson do?
They're playing games right here.
As you know, President Trump has a saying, no games.
We're not playing games.
We're taking this country back and they're not going to stop us.
They're going to try to do everything to stop us, but they're not going to stop us.
They can only stop us.
If you consent.
If you consent to the way they're running things, then they're going to continue to run them, and it's only going to get worse.
If you don't consent, and you say, no, we're not going to play your games, we're going to get to the bottom of all this, then it's a different deal.
Mike Lindell, tell me about this trial in Georgia.
Is this another wild goose chase, or is this something that's real?
mike lindell
Yeah, this is the real deal, Steve.
And there's a lot of differences in this than everything else that's came out over the last few years.
And this is perfect timing on our plan to secure our elections, our election platforms.
Everything that's happening right now comes from a stolen election, and we need to secure our election platform.
With this case, this case in Georgia goes back almost five years.
It's called the Curling case.
It was against Secretary of State Brad Rassenberger.
And the difference of this is, a judge now ruled last, it was late last year, they put in a summary judgment to get rid of this case.
And the judge ruled, no, we're not getting rid of it.
And there's a couple differences.
This is Democrats and Republicans that are the plaintiffs.
These are both in Georgia.
Remember, you had a gal that got zero votes in her own precinct.
That was a Democrat with her and her husband in that precinct.
But this judge made the ruling on November 10th of 2023 that this case moves forward.
She denied the summary judgment in part and is going to trial on January 9th in federal court.
She ruled that the machines are vulnerable and that you're not a conspiracy theorist if you talk about them.
This was a big ruling in itself.
So when this goes forward now, I believe... But hang on, but hang on, but hang on.
steve bannon
Since this is Democrats, aren't they trying to cut some deal that has some small part of it that can be fixed and they agree to that and the trial goes away?
Isn't there a bunch of back room right now because Roethlisberger and these guys said if this thing comes to trial the evidence here will be damning so we have to basically make a deal and get to sign some of this consent decree and do a mea culpa Right.
mike lindell
They're doing a couple of things, Steve.
One is they're obviously trying not to talk about the 2020 election.
Oh, it's vulnerable in every election except for 2020.
There were problems in every election with these machines.
But the one thing you're talking about is they're trying to carve out just part of the machines, basically I believe it's the tablets, not the tabulators, or vice versa.
I can't remember which one or the other.
And they're arguing over that.
The Democrats all of a sudden are with Rassenburger on that going, hey, let's just talk about part of this.
Well, this judge has made some good rulings, and I believe this judge will look at everything.
If she finds these machines are not constitutional and that they can't provide a fair and accurate vote, this is what we're looking for.
But it also, I believe anything that comes out of this trial will be a positive for what we're doing for our plan to secure our elections.
We're all in this month.
And like you say, I love your calendar that you have there.
We put everything together on a website, LyndalePlan.com.
If everybody go there, we're going to have updates daily of everything that's going on, not just with this trial, but with our plan to go county by county.
And secure our elections and get to paper ballots hand-counted, which is what we need in all of our elections.
steve bannon
Perfect.
Tell me, before you go, tell me about the company.
What should we focus on?
You finished with a bang in 23.
We made sure everybody got their Christmas bonuses.
What should people be looking for right now when we think about MyPillow?
mike lindell

Mike, keep us up to date on this.
Hey, they're going to be playing games down in Georgia.
This thing that Harrington and Bob have put together, we'll hopefully have it this afternoon or tomorrow, but these battleground states, the only way they can defeat Trump is to steal it.
Let me be blunt about that.
And man, I tell you, this thing about This stuff about the Raffensperger in Georgia, it's shocking that the Murdoch News never brought up any of this information in the quote-unquote trial.
Mike Lindell, thank you very much.
Honored to have you on here, brother.
You've got people on fire today about accountability.
I'm going to start.
We've got Rosemary Jinks, I've got Julie Kelly, I've got Colonel Brad Miller.
I've got a couple of minutes here, Rosemary.
Look, you're very well known in this audience.
You're revered by this audience.
You are the one that does all the math about what's going on.
Why are you starting up this new group?
Why all of a sudden is accountability such a big deal?
You've got Speaker Mike Johnson's going to Eagle Pass tomorrow.
Rosemary, why are you picking on Mike Johnson's guys?
He's going down for a photo op to Eagle Pass in January 2024.
What's your beef?
rosemary jenks
Yeah, that's the problem, the photo op.
So I am sick and tired of members of Congress hiding behind messaging bills, messaging votes, messaging photo ops.
It's time to hold them accountable.
Every single person in this country who's been paying attention knows that the Biden administration has intentionally and systematically dismantled our border security.
The only question left is what are Republicans going to do about it?
100% of Democrats are on board with just throwing more money at this issue.
If Republicans are serious, they're going to prevent another single dollar from being used to continue to open our borders and escort illegal aliens into our country.
If they're not willing to do that, then they need to be held accountable at voting time.
And so we're going to be calling them out by name, asking them to make a pledge that they will not fund the government until the border is secure.
That's what the Immigration Accountability Project is going to do right now.
steve bannon
Hang on.
Baby, you're talking our language.
Rosemary Jenks is on the ramparts.
Short break.
Modern Day Holy War take us out.
We're coming back in just a moment in the war room Is your host Stephen K band Oh Okay, welcome back.
We got a lot to talk about in capital markets.
Here's what I need you to do is go totally free.
Remember in the War Room, all the material is free.
We want to immerse you in information.
Birchgold.com slash Bannon.
Get, I think, gold finished up, I don't know, 13, 15 percent for the year.
But it's not about that.
It's about gold as a hedge for turbulence.
Look at that calendar.
Just look at the calendar in January and think about behind what events and what forces are driving these events we put on there.
This is one of the most important years, I call it a hinge year.
In modern American history, you are not only going to live through it, but being part of this show, you're going to help drive this.
That's what they hate most of all about Trump is that Trump's empowered you.
And once you've tasted power and understand that you can use that power positively to save your country.
You ain't never going back to the old days, and they know that.
That's why they're trying to crush everybody associated with this movement.
But make sure you've got to understand some basics.
You've got to understand currency.
You have to understand the Federal Reserve.
You have to understand this massive debt that nobody in D.C., none of the Uniparty want to talk about.
Why?
Because they're enriching themselves on the backs of you, your children, and your grandchildren.
I'm very honored.
This is what we set the War Room up a couple years ago.
I've got two guests, Rosemary Jenks and Julie Kelly, that are both tough as boot leather, okay?
And these people don't know how to back down and they don't back down.
I want to start, I want to go back to Rosemary.
Rosemary, how long have you been involved in this issue about illegal immigration and even legal, what it's doing to the country?
rosemary jenks
How many years?
unidentified
33.
rosemary jenks
All of my career, basically.
steve bannon
Good Lord.
unidentified
Your entire professional career is about this, correct?
rosemary jenks
I'm sorry?
steve bannon
Your entire professional career basically revolved around this, and at the highest levels, people, you've been to the White House, at Breitbart, I knew you very well, you were one of the driving factors in all the big fights, and a revered figure in this movement because of your You don't give opinion, you just deal with facts and with math.
How bad is it over the arc of your career?
Where would you say we are now as a nation about this issue of illegal immigration and even legal immigration, ma'am?
rosemary jenks
There is no comparison to what is happening under the Biden administration to anything that has happened in our entire history as a nation.
It is that bad.
This is, I mean, every record has been blown apart.
And each month, the records get worse and worse and worse.
I mean, it's going to be difficult to recover from the damage that this administration has done.
But we've got to start now.
And we can do it.
We just have to be tough about it.
But we have to start now.
And that means that Republicans, first of all, have to recognize that the money that they're spending is not their money.
It's our money.
And we do not have any obligation as American citizens to pay for our own demise as a nation.
So we're not going to do that.
steve bannon
Rosemary, here's what I don't get, because there's a lot of good people up there.
Here's what I don't get.
What is it about this crisis?
That these folks don't understand that we need emergency measures.
And the first emergency measure is you've got to cut off the... The mother's milk of power in the nation's capital is money.
Particularly not their money.
Taxpayers' money.
What?
The Republican Party puts itself out all the time.
It runs.
It has our audience knock on doors.
Hit them with $50 donations.
Walk precincts.
That, you know, they got to get tough on the border.
All this.
What don't they understand about the crisis that this is an emergency?
It must be dealt with with emergency measures.
rosemary jenks
They do understand the crisis.
The problem is that they've also got the donor class in their other ear saying, oh, this is wonderful for us.
We get cheap labor and, you know, we don't have to pay as much.
The wages for all working Americans go down.
I mean, this is this is by dynamic.
By nomics that, you know, we're essentially destroying the middle class.
The poor are becoming more and more destitute and the donor class loves it.
You know, they have cheap nannies and cheap yard care.
So that's the competing issue.
steve bannon
So what is your, you've stepped out, you've started this new organization.
One, tell people why you did that and what is the driving, what is going to be the organizing principle of your new group?
rosemary jenks
So the Immigration Accountability Project is the new organization.
The website is IAProject.org.
We are going to hold members of Congress accountable.
We are laser focused on Congress because Congress under the Constitution has total authority over immigration policy.
It is only Congress that can change our immigration laws.
And we are determined to hold individual members of Congress accountable for all of their statements, their actions, their photo ops, all of it, in their neighborhoods, in their districts, through social media.
We're going to reach the voting public where they are, which is on social media, and make sure that they know exactly what their members of Congress are doing and saying and how they're voting.
Pull out the hypocrisy because I mean there is no limit to the amount of hypocrisy that we see from these members of Congress, you know, campaigning on we must secure the border and then throwing money to escort illegal aliens into the United States in record numbers.
It's got to stop and we're absolutely determined to make it stop.
steve bannon
Speaker Johnson, do you agree we need a photo op down in Eagle Pass, Texas tomorrow?
unidentified
No.
rosemary jenks
We need action.
We need H.R.
unidentified
2.
rosemary jenks
We need the House of Representatives to be telling the Senate, we are not going to fund the government until you pass H.R.
2 and the President signs it into law.

So this is your bottom line and you're saying H.R.
2, everything that was passed back in the spring, and it's not a perfect bill, but it's directionally it's a start.
You're saying you don't get past the 19th.
Shut the government down unless you actually pass it.
The Senate passes and Biden signs it.
You're saying we should shut the government down and have that fight right now?
rosemary jenks
I'm saying that the Republicans in the House and the Senate If they fund the government before the border is secure, then they are complicit in what is happening on the border.
And, you know, if they want to be complicit, then they're going to, you know, throw our money into committing national suicide.
But they will be complicit.
They will own the border crisis if they do that.
And then come November, why should Americans vote for Republicans if Republicans are part of the problem?
steve bannon
Amen.
I love the clarity.
Once again, social media, where do they go?
Where do they go to the website?
What are they supposed to do?
rosemary jenks
IAProject.org is our website.
All of our social media is linked through that.
We're on Twitter and Facebook and everywhere else.
And we need your audience's help to get this organization off the ground.
So we hope you'll hit that red button.
And we're going to be giving further instructions on our website on how you can help us get members of Congress to sign a pledge that they will not fund the government until the border is secure.
steve bannon
Rosemary Jenks is mad as hell, and she's not going to take it anymore.
Amazing.
I've known you for a long time.
You're a warrior, and this is a big deal for you to start this new organization.
Really honored to have you on here to kick off the new year, ma'am.
rosemary jenks
Thank you.
I'm honored to be here.
steve bannon
This is a tough one.
It's tough as boot leather.
Hang on, I'm bringing in a second person as tough as boot leather.
Let me go to Berquam real quickly back in McAllen.
Ben, you've done this trip from San Diego now down to the Rio Grande Valley, the capital of the Rio Grande Valley and kind of the center of what the problem is.
Talk to me just real quickly about what you found in that journey.
ben bergquam
Well, we're here.
There's a reason why we're here at the McAllen Airport.
On the trip, I started at the San Diego Airport, went to the Tucson Airport, and then ended up going to all these cities.
So I'd go to the border, go to the airport, go to the border, go to the airport.
Was in San Antonio last night doing the same thing.
And every airport across America, in the lobbies, you have more illegals now than you have American citizens.
And the scary thing is, this is as they're shifting from commercial flights to charter flights.
All of this, everything that you're hearing that the last guest was talking about is absolutely true.
We are spending billions of dollars to invade our own country.
She's absolutely right.
You're right.
Any Republican that votes for this budget without voting to secure the border should be removed from office.
That's the bottom line.
Any one of them.
Shut down the government until we shut down the border.
And I just want to commend Carlos.
Not only was he one of the escorts trafficking or moving the children around the country, he was one of the managers at the Roe Hotel that we were highlighting a couple months ago in New York City.
And he actually left his job there because of what was happening.
He chose... Just real quick, Steve.
This is mind-blowing.
How much were you getting paid as an escort?
carlos arellano
So as an escort, I was making $30 an hour, but as the manager of the Royal Hotel, it was $46 an hour.
ben bergquam
$46 an hour.
And what's your education background?
carlos arellano
All I have is a GED.
ben bergquam
What is the, for looking at background checks for other people like you, what is the expectation?
carlos arellano
So the expectation is once you get that call, you go to orientation and the next day you're working.
You have a child with you and it's stupid because it's not just one background check.
You go about through four of them, but you're working before they even come in.
ben bergquam
Steve, what is happening right now?
It's the death of our nation.
It's child trafficking.
It's national suicide.
Any Republican that votes for this should be removed from office.
And I just want to commend Carlos for doing that.
unidentified
I agree.
ben bergquam
He left that work on his own.
He made the choice because he couldn't stand what was happening there.
Very few people would do that.
So thank you, Carlos.
steve bannon
Carlos, if you and Ben... Ben, if you and Carlos just hang on, because I want to come back to you guys at the top.
Just hang with me.
I want to drill down on this more.
Particularly, and I've got numerous eyewitness accounts heading out of Phoenix and Tucson Airport that there are more illegal aliens getting on flights and they're getting preferential treatment than American citizens.
So just stick that in your pipe and smoke it while you're thinking about this.
Let's go to Julie Kelly.
Julie, I kind of don't know where to start, so I'm going to toss it to you.
President Trump came out on a true social, and I mean, he unmasked the batteries and let Liz Cheney and all of them have it about this J6 thing was outrageous.
You've been following Jack Smith's.
So tell me, let's start there.
What is going on with this J6?
I don't know why Johnson hasn't just trashed the entire community, thrown it away.
You've had destruction of evidence.
Trump's making that case and now you got Jack Smith doesn't want anything with as much as we have to adjudicate on J6 and how that's tied to what he's trying to, this phony charge.
He's now going to the Supreme Court, or he's going to the judge first, but he'll go to the Supreme Court saying Trump can't say anything about January 6th.
Is that, am I reading this right?
julie kelly
Right, so first of all, related to the evidence that's missing from the Nancy Pelosi, Adam Schiff, Liz Cheney, January 6th Select Committee, we know for a fact, because Benny Thompson has told Republicans in Congress that yes, all of the video recordings of the witness depositions, 1,000 plus people who were interviewed by that committee, those videos are gone.
They will not be turned over to House Republicans.
And what Thompson said is, you don't need the videos.
You only need the transcripts, the written transcripts.
Well, guess what?
A lot of those are missing as well, including a handful that are being hidden by the Joe Biden White House that won't turn those over as well.
And so we certainly know that hundreds of them, contrary to the promises by Liz Cheney and others, that all the evidence would be made available to the public, hundreds still have not been posted on the committee's now defunct website.
Furthermore, Stephen, it's important to emphasize this.
Donald Trump's attorneys filed in the D.C.
case, the January 6th case, that they wanted all of the evidence, including video recordings of these witnesses' depositions, saying that there are things that are picked up on video that are not, you know, they're not able to be picked up by a written transcript.
Jack Smith actually said, no, you don't need the video recordings.
You can just look at the written transcripts.
He knows that these videos are missing.
If they are, this is destruction of evidence in a criminal prosecution.
Benny Thompson knew.
Jack Smith had been appointed a month before the committee wrapped up.
He knew that this criminal prosecution was coming against Donald Trump, but now they're hiding.
All of the video recordings, many transcripts, and, remember, all of the Secret Service texts have been deleted, too.
steve bannon
Hang on one second.
Short break.
Julie Kelly on the other side.
unidentified
Here's your host, Stephen K. Vance.
steve bannon
Okay, we've got a lot on the Muslim Brotherhood war in Gaza.
We've got a lot about Ukraine, geopolitics, capital markets.
We're going to get to all of that, so stick with us.
But it's time to get to work again, as we need to, as this audience knows how to do.
But we need to get jacked up in the morning.
That's why I started Right off my field of greens.
Gotta get the good stuff.
Didn't get the better stuff.
Warpath Coffee.
Warpath.coffee.com.
Get your big discount.
Try the dark roast.
Particularly if you say, hey Steve, I don't like dark roasts.
It's too acidic.
Get that kick.
We've taken Tej Gill and the team.
Tasia, former Navy SEAL, have worked for years on getting the Mariner's Blend, the Dark Roach is my baby, right?
Just check it out if you've never tried Dark Roach.
They've got all the mid-roast, all the mild roast, holiday blends, all that.
It's a fully, this is a one-stop shop coffee, I guess, destination?
Warpath.coffee.
Get on the Warpath today.
And make sure you put in War Room and get all your big discounts.
I want to put up something real quickly.
So on the calendar, we made a command decision not to put in all the caucus events to get caucus members ready.
And so if you look at the calendar, it's pretty jammed right there.
I'm going to get more into that in detail and go through.
That'll be kind of your critical path for the month of January.
And every one of these events will be covering will have specials around a bunch of them.
But if we if we have the I don't have a great photo of this, but I'll put up what I got tomorrow on the 3rd.
In Iowa, Governor Kristi Noem is going to host, it's one of these kind of workshops for caucus goers.
I think this venue, I'm being told, is 350 people.
I think they already have over 2,000 RSVPs.
This shows you, this shows you the type of, this shows you the type of enthusiasm.
Do we have that already?
Okay, fine.
Producer's back, first day, a little sleepy.
Warpath Coffee.
We recommend Warpath Coffee.
We got it up now.
Anyway, it's just a little ad.
My point, you still try to go and get RSVPs, but on a 350 person event over 2,000 RSVPs right now. The enthusiasm in Iowa is incredible for President Trump.
There we are right there. Governor Christie Noem is going to host this one. They're having a bunch of these.
We couldn't put them on the calendar because there's too many.
I think there's a half a dozen or maybe even a dozen up until then. Just broke, we can now announce the news. What we had up there on the 10th, if you look in the calendar, we say, I think Trump event. It's actually going to be a town hall.
Murdoch News is going to have a town hall with President Trump counter-programming the debate.
I think the debate is at CNN or ABC, one of the debate, the Iowa debate, the RNC is putting on.
It's going to be counter-programmed by President Trump and looks like the Murdoch News guys in a town hall format.
So that just came across the wire.
Julie, I want to make sure people understand this.
Because this is so outrageous, and this is why people, they need to get... I don't understand why Loudermilk has not been empowered to get on top.
I realize he goes around and does some media, that's fine.
But we need actions.
Time for talk is over.
I think you're hearing that from Rosemary Jenks.
You're hearing that from Mike Lindell.
You're hearing that from Julie Kelly.
We've had enough talk.
We've got evidence.
I don't know how we can sit here and have Democrats have this big J6 thing on national TV and they've destroyed evidence.
It is impossible.
That those film depositions, the film depositions have just disappeared.
You, somebody may make a mistake and a part of one might be erased or, you know, Rosemary Woods, 18 minutes or something like that.
I can understand maybe something like that before a supervisor says, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, don't do that.
But I think they're over a thousand where they're not over a thousand film depositions, ma'am.
How many were there?
julie kelly
Correct.
We were told there were roughly 1000 interviews with so-called witnesses.
And so these videos, of course, they cherry-picked clips from these videos to show to the public.
We know how that works.
Keep in mind too, Steve, Cassidy Hutchinson's lawyer filed a 15-page correction to her four or five interviews, depositions that she gave to the committee.
We need to see that too.
You know whose transcript is missing?
steve bannon
Hold it, hold it, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Hang on for a sec.
Cassie Hutchison.
And this is why the committee was a joke.
Because they didn't have a ranking member and you didn't have minority counsel.
This is why Watergate and these other ones took a different direction because you get to look at the...
Evidence, and you get to cross-examine the witness.
Cassie Hutchinson wouldn't be up there talking smack like she talked.
How do we know that, Steve Bannon?
Why are you picking on poor Cassie Hutchinson?
Because she put a 15-page, uh, what is it?
Errata.
Errata, yeah.
Changing her testimony, correct ma'am?
Refining it.
julie kelly
That's correct, right.
And so these are little, to your point, Okay, I misspoke here, or I meant to say this, or I got off track and I wanted to go down here.
15 pages of corrections.
We need to see what she corrected.
And furthermore, Steve, there's no reason for us to trust the written transcripts.
We know how this committee lied.
We know how it misrepresented the facts of what happened on January 6th.
We know that Liz Cheney and Adam Schiff, these are some of the biggest liars in Congress.
We're supposed to just trust the written transcripts that the committee produced?
We don't know that they've been edited, so you can compare the actual video recording with what they have published.
Do you know whose transcript is still missing to this day?
Bobby Engel, Donald Trump's security detail chief.
He is the one that Cassidy Hutchinson claimed Donald Trump tried to strangle on January 6th when he would not take him to the Capitol.
We still don't have that transcript.
So, and this is just what we publicly know that Representative Loudermilk, to his credit, has uncovered and tried to get an explanation from the chairman of that committee, Benny Thompson.
As to why all of these records are now missing.
unidentified
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
steve bannon
But hang on, hang on.
Why do we need an explanation?
Benny Thompson and Lottie are looking in the eye of Lottie.
We are in charge.
This is what I don't understand.
I appreciate Loudermilk going around, but correct me if I'm wrong.
Is the Speaker of the House not a Republican?
Is the Majority Leader not a Republican?
Why do we need to go be supplicants?
Can't we just go in and look at the records and put them all out publicly, like immediately?
I tell you what, hold that answer.
Hold that answer, Julie Kelly.
Hang on.
I gotta get to the bottom of this.
If you can just please hold to the top of the hour.
Modern-day holy war is gonna take us out?
Show's on fire today.
You know why?
Great guest.
Short commercial break.
The Julie Kelly, a woman who's dedicated three years of her life to get to the bottom of this.
Rosemary Jenks, 33 years of her life to get to the bottom of it.
These are warriors and patriots next in the War Room.
