steve bannon
This is the primal scream of a dying regime.
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've tried 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
War Room.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bamm.
steve bannon
Okay, Friday, 12 January, Year of the Lord 2024.
Historic weekend.
Starting with a vote in Taiwan that we've kept you and we're going to be wall-to-wall coverage of that throughout the rest of the day and then the Iowa caucuses on Monday night where we kick off the the American presidential campaign.
Also at 12 noon MTG is going to do this the VAX injury VAX injury congressional hearing.
Dr. McCullough and other patriots and heroes are going to be there.
We're going to try to stream that, Grace and Mo, on Getter and Rumble with commentary.
I'm going to try to dip in and out of there.
Then we're back 5 to 7 at night.
5 to 7 at night will be a lot of stuff going on.
Geopolitics, capital markets, politics.
Eli Crane's coming up in a moment.
Mike, you know, Ben Harnwell, who had to bounce because he's working on something for the 6 o'clock show for me, or for the War Room.
Ben, just ask a basic question, and I've got to go because I've got Eli, but I just want to put this in your thing.
How can it be illegal In America, not to sell a cake to a married male couple, right?
But perfectly legal not to take advertising from a patriot.
Can you answer that for me?
unidentified
No, I really can't.
All I'm seeing here is this political, and I'm so branded with our real president, they don't even want my face on Fox News all the way up to the election.
That's the only thing I can see here, Steve.
And it should be illegal.
I mean, how can they?
Here's money.
I've been buying, nothing's changed in nine or ten years, ten years with Fox News.
And if you're just watching everybody, Fox News cancelled my pillow.
Don, you won't see us there.
This is cancelled culture.
Steve, I never thought that, you know, well, of course, I never thought box stores would do it.
I never thought shopping channels would do it.
It's not like we're not their top product of all time.
And these great USA workers.
That I have, and I'm beside myself.
I'm just, I'm still in shock.
Why?
Why?
And they won't give us an answer why.
steve bannon
Okay, I'm gonna give you an answer right now.
In New York City, Manhattan, they're stripping Donald Trump of his business.
You saw that fiasco yesterday, just like Moscow.
Fox surrendered without even putting up any witnesses or anybody on the fight over the machines.
He wrote a check for $800 million with no fight.
And I'm not saying they would want it, but hey, you've got to put up a fight.
You've got to present your evidence, which you, Mike, and others say there's overwhelming evidence.
Well, hey, a court would decide that, but you had a place to adjudicate it, adjudicate it.
Now, Mike Lindell, the other fighter who's still in the fight, they cancel him.
That's economic warfare against MAGA.
Because they hate Trump.
They had that town hall the other day, trying to be obsequious.
They're trying to be obsequious because they know Trump's going to be president again.
They're all coming back, but they hate him.
They're working there, you know, they turn it into the Nikki Network because they're neoliberal neocons.
And they're going to go hang out with their buddies.
The Murdoch's a bunch of foreigners going to hang out with their buddies.
The Murdoch kid's going to be in Davos.
Are there kids on, by the way, are there kids, are there sons and daughters on those Navy combatants in the Red Sea?
No, don't hold your breath on that one.
Mike Lindell, mypillow.com, promo code WORM.
You're going to join me back this afternoon where we get more details on the cancel, big key topic, cancel culture, Fox News, blaring headline, Wall Street Journal.
It takes its own hit for taking hundreds of millions of dollars from Mike Lindell and will cancel him because they hate Trump and they hate MAGA.
Thanks for having me on, Steve.
You're free men and women, you make your decision whether you click it on or not.
I know it's white noise for most of you, but you've got to make your decision whether you're going to do it or not.
800-873-1062.
Have Lindell's back.
As they're coming for Lindell, as hard as they're coming for Trump.
Mike Lindell, thank you.
See you this afternoon, brother.
Appreciate it.
unidentified
Thanks.
Dram me on, Steve.
steve bannon
Thank you.
And it's not like, listen, it's not like, it's not like, by the way, I love the MyPillow commercial because Mike's over the top and such an endearing figure, particularly for the conservatives.
It's not like they got Amex and General Motors all over the thing.
Look at the ads they put up.
Look at the direct response ads they put up in the evening and during the day.
Look at it.
It's not like they're selling you the Holy Grail every second.
It's not like they got Amex and all, you know, not.
My pillow's upscale, so it can't be that.
And you know it's a profitable business if you take in hundreds of millions of dollars when every other media company is letting guys go.
Hello?
Eli Crane.
Brother, make this make sense to me.
Johnson's wandering around today, you know, well, I haven't told Schumer.
We don't have a deal.
The Senate has now said that, you know, under no circumstances will there be anything associated with border.
Why don't we just cut to the chase and tell him, hey, you don't close the border.
We're shutting it down and you're not going to close the border.
So let's just get on with it.
Let's have a throwdown and see where this thing plays out, brother.
unidentified
Well, Steve.
Thanks for having me on.
Unfortunately, I'm not the guy that can make sense of this for you.
I'm the guy that can give you my perspective.
And like many people that watch your show every day, I'm pretty disappointed.
There just doesn't seem to be a sense of urgency up here on Capitol Hill.
I sat in a meeting yesterday with Speaker Johnson and several members of our conference that would be classified as war hawks.
Some of us from the House Freedom Caucus were talking about why we need to attach the border security to this funding deal.
Many of the Warhawk types were talking more about hypersonic missiles and ship contracts.
That was their focus.
I can't tell you I can make sense of it, but that's some of the detachment from why we can't get our borders secured, and the detachment from what the American people are asking for and begging for.
steve bannon
It's also, you know, his new pitch is, oh, we're going to get some policy wins, which we're not going to get, but it's policy wins because he wants to get away from just the overall debacle in the finances.
We just had reported out last night half a trillion dollars in the first three months of the fiscal year.
This starts October 1st.
Half a trillion dollars projected now to be two trillion dollar deficit.
Is there any, when you're in these meetings, is there any discussion about, hey guys, I know we cut $16 billion, which is about six days of interest, saved $16 billion.
But is there any discussion about you're running now trillion dollar deficits every year and it looks like you're going to run them in perpetuity?
Does that ever get brought up in these closed door meetings?
unidentified
No.
What gets brought up in these closed door meetings is why you can't do it.
You know, why we can't do it.
All the bad things, the boogeymen that are going to come out and destroy the conference, cause us to lose the majority.
It's always why you can't do it.
You know the deal, Steve.
In this party, we never play to win.
We play to lose by less.
And that's really the best way I can put it to the American people.
Um, you know, some, it's a very frustrating place to be.
I'm hoping though, that with some of the fights, the historic fights that we've got in this year, I'm hoping that some of the candidates out there, um, you know, that are coming up here to replace individuals that don't want to represent the American people.
I'm hoping that they see that you don't have to come here.
You don't have to fall in line.
You don't have to make the speaker of the house, whichever side it is, um, your new commander in chief, where you just ask, Okay, you know, sir, sir, what's my marching orders?
No, you're here to represent the American people.
They're screaming as loud as they possibly can on both sides of the aisle, to be honest with you.
Hey, shut down this border or shut down the government.
And unfortunately, once again, uh, most of the representation in the house are not listening.
steve bannon
Do they understand the scale of the financial crisis we have, and the scale of the invasion of the southern border, that you have nine or ten million here, that come across as three to five hundred thousand a month, and this is, you know, ten thousands of combat divisions.
So you have combat divisions of PLA, CCP, you know, fighting age males from everywhere.
Did they understand that's all got to be deported, that these two crises, when they converge, and they are converging now, what you see in New York City, see other places, will lead to the absolute destruction of this republic with no comeback?
unidentified
I don't think they... I think there's a combination, Steve.
I think some of them get it, but they're not willing to do what's necessary to fix the problem.
And I think some of them are so inundated up here, they become such swamp creatures that, you know, it doesn't affect their daily life.
Um, and so they, they, they could care less.
And, uh, it's not, it's not about for, for many of these guys up here, Steve, it's not about again, representing and protecting the American people who were supposed to be protecting and serving.
It's about, um, you know, making sure that, you know, their, their big campaign donors, you know, have their agendas taken care of and make sure that, you know, their retirement Um, and that lobbying job that they want, you know, or that board that they want to be on with a, you know, defense contractor, whatever it is, is, is still, uh, is still online.
steve bannon
I'm going to go to your constituents.
You have geographically one of the largest districts in the nation.
Tell me about the folks in the district.
Where are their heads at right now?
Do you believe they understand the scale of the financial crisis and the scale of the invasion of the southern border and they understand where this is taking this country?
unidentified
Absolutely they do, Steve.
I know you've been in my district.
You've heard it from people, the people that I represent.
They get it.
They understand how big of a crisis this is.
They understand why the America First agenda is so important.
And it's just common sense.
Take care of your own people.
Take care of your own country before you take care of others and you start shelling hundreds of billions of dollars all over the country.
They 100% get it.
They have children and family members who are dying of fentanyl.
They go to their emergency room and aren't able to get
Um, you know, seen in, in a relatively, um, you know, understandable amount of time while, you know, illegals are taken care of, um, you know, often before them they see in the airport, Steve, when they go to get on a flight, you know, they see, uh, you know, hundreds of, uh, illegals walking through the airport with, you know, little plastic baggies, you know, get getting on planes that they're paying for sending them to hotels that they end up paying for.
And they're sick of it.
And they're sick of the politicians up in Washington, D.C.
that, you know, don't do anything about it.
And even when they understand the problem, they're not willing to take the hard vote.
Because as you've said on your show many, many times, the Republican Party, for the most part, all we really do is manage the decline of the country.
We're not willing to play to win.
We're not willing to do what's necessary to turn it around.
And that's why they support President Trump.
And so many of us that have shown that we're willing to throw down and fight because they know it's going to take a fight to get us out of this mess.
steve bannon
It was Andy Biggs and Matt Gaetz and Raheem Kassama and myself with Eli that had an event at the Cowboy Church.
uh... in his district uh... outside of phoenix and uh... this was hard-working blue-collar middle-class americans the quality of questions we we got is better than if i go talk to a wall street crowd and certainly better than anything i hear in dc that is the awaken army we the army the awakened we have is a ninety like rain that's people out here get it now and they're not prepared to back off they just need to be helpful some leadership
unidentified
No, absolutely, Steve.
And that's why I appreciate what you guys do on this show every single day.
You know, the hardworking folks of the country, obviously they don't, you know, they don't have time to follow politics all day long, but they do know, they do know that this country is headed in the wrong direction.
They see it at the grocery store, you know, they, they see it at airports, they see it at emergency rooms, like I just, like I just mentioned.
And they want They demand fighters who are willing to go in there, uh, turn this thing around.
And, you know, I, we'll, we'll find out if they send me back up to Washington this next year.
Um, but you know, I, I'm grateful that I'm not alone here, Steve.
I'm grateful that, you know, there are members of Congress that are willing to put their careers on the line, repeatedly take votes that, you know, are pretty much unheard of up here in historic, you know, just to try and turn this thing around.
And, you know, we're going to have to break some eggs to, you know, to turn this thing around and we're going to have to piss some people off.
And you know, it's not something that I, you know, wake up in the morning, you know, hoping to do, but it is absolutely necessary.
And so, you know, we're willing to keep doing it.
Thank you for what you guys do, Steve.
Um, and thanks for having me on the show.
steve bannon
Uh, Eli, where do people get to you?
Where are they focused?
Where are they?
Where's the social media?
What's the website?
unidentified
Uh, they can follow us at Rep Eli Crane and Eli Crane CEO on social media.
Thanks brother.
steve bannon
Thank you, Congressman Green.
unidentified
Short break.
Back with Captain Finnell in a moment.
steve bannon
Okay, uh, I'm not making this up.
This is actually, even as we speak in the flow of this, this is why this audience is so, um, is so important.
Um, uh, Johnson's just given a talk, or I don't know where he gave this, but remarks.
I'm asked this to be pulled by my ever-cracked staff, the producers of The War Room.
But Johnson denies hard-liners asked to renegotiate top-line spending.
That's a bald-faced lie.
I talked to many of these people.
Quote, our top-line agreement remains.
We are getting our next steps together and we are working towards a robust appropriations process.
Full remarks below.
That's just not true.
This guy's weird.
It's not hacking it, dude.
One of the tenets of the biblical worldview is that thou shalt not lie, and maybe let's make another tenet.
Thou shalt not tell stupid lies.
People do not agree at all with the top line, and not just about the appropriations process, plus you've run out of time.
You sent them home today at 10.
Today, they're gone.
Senate left yesterday.
There's not going to be a protest.
Let me do the math here.
Hang on.
Today's the 12th, the 19th at midnight.
That would be seven.
Okay.
Seven days.
I got it.
I worked that out.
See, it wasn't that hard.
I did that actually without my number two pencil.
It's not going to happen.
And you're going to come back with a CR and that's not going to happen.
We're going to fight you to the death on this thing.
Metaphorically.
Shut it down.
It's a positive if you tell the people why you're shutting it down.
Don't listen to your consultants.
Don't listen to McCarthy's roommate, Frank Luntz.
Don't listen to the guys over at Fox.
You have to take leadership.
People around you have to take leadership.
Step up and tell the American people the truth.
The truth is we just had a half a trillion dollar deficit in the first quarter of the year.
of which we told you were going to have and nobody else would.
Because, and if you add it, if you take a half a trillion times four, let me do Gazintas, if you do the ba-ba-bing-ba-boom, oh, two trillion dollar deficit.
That's now, this year, happening. When you're having passed the budget, we told you it was going to happen.
If things are so great, is Citicorp laying off 20,000 people a day in the United States of America?
If things are so great, things are booming.
All the stats I get is so great.
They're so terrific.
Inflation up yesterday is so terrific.
Are they laying off 20,000?
No, they'd be adding 20,000.
They're not.
Because it ain't great.
And tax revenues are slowing down.
We told you last year you weren't going to get 5 trillion, you were going to get 4.4 trillion.
Guess what?
Or 4.5 trillion.
It came in at 4.4.
We were off.
We were high by $100 billion.
It's time for truth now.
Take the biblical worldview and man up.
You're starting to irk me.
What's starting to irk me is that This is not the Fox era.
You can't come up with Republican talking points and just give us stupidity and think we're going to buy it.
It's not going to happen.
It's not going to happen.
Morning Joe can try to do that to the idiots that watch that.
The Fox and Friends and the White Sofa can do that.
And All Day Long on Fox can do that.
But you're not going to do it to this audience.
This audience is an audience of the awakened.
And they're awakened to the fact that this is no longer managed decline.
This is the absolute freefall.
The bottom's falling out.
I know that on the southern border.
And you see, yesterday we had to have Rosemary Jenks on here.
Rosemary Jenks had to come on, dedicating her entire life, 30 years, 30 years of doing this, of looking at the math and the numbers at Numbers USA.
Now, it's so bad, she's had to leave a place she's been at for 30 years.
Why?
Because she says we need more accountability.
She's on the accountability project to hold them accountable.
She says they'll look you in the eye and lie to you.
And she went through with Langford.
Langford's been working on this for two months.
Did you see what she walked through?
And Rosemary Jenks, she's no hothead like Bannon.
She's very calm.
She's methodical.
She's about the number.
She called it treasonous.
Rosemary Jenks, not Steve Bannon.
Rosemary Jenks said Langford was guilty of treason for working on this.
Because of what it really allowed, which was nothing more.
It was all optics.
We told you this.
It was all optics to increase the invasion of the country.
Because the donor class wants it.
The same donor class that ain't got any kids on those combatants in the Red Sea.
This is a con and a scam.
You underwrite it all.
Once the American people are awakened to that fact, that it's upon your shoulders that all rests, that it's your tax money.
You pay the vast majority of this because they ain't paying them.
Okay?
They're not paying them.
You are.
Because you don't have a bunch of tax lawyers and tax breaks and all this.
You get, boom, you get it right up every April 15th with no help.
And now they're going to stick another 80,000 IRS agents because they can't squeeze enough out of you.
So you pay for it all.
Your pension funds, right, are used by the Larry Finks of the world to ship all the jobs over to China, the main, oh, we don't do that, that's wrong, you don't really, no, no, no, no, I can go to these towns and I understand and they understand, the people living in them understand, you don't need some big, you know, macroeconomic explanation of this.
And then at the end, it's your sons and daughters, it's both your treasure and your blood.
Are their kids serving anywhere in the world?
Every now and again you get onesies, twosies of people that are patriotic and the kids are raised and their kids are patriotic.
But that's not them as a class, no way.
It's you.
It's you, the deplorables.
And they treat you like trash.
If they had any respect for you, you wouldn't have to have this huge fight on closing the southern border.
You wouldn't have to have this debate on the invasion of the nation if they had a scintilla of respect for you.
A scintilla, just a tiny bit.
They don't.
You're trash.
You're disposable trash.
The guys at Birch Gold have come up with a great idea.
We're on the end of the dollar empire.
The fourth free install, totally free.
I'm updating the fourth, the debt trap, because we need you guys actually up to date on current numbers as we go into shutdown week, which will be next week.
Remember, under no circumstances can it be a CR.
And if Johnson puts forward a CR, then he's got to have the same fate as McCarthy.
I have no stake in here of any personality.
I just want to see somebody who's prepared to stand in the breach.
You stand in the breach, you're a fighter, we're all good.
It's about policy, but you don't, boom, hit the eject button.
Next one, boom, hit the eject button.
I got no dog in this fight as it comes to personality.
Right?
You know, if the next guy doesn't have a Christian worldview, I'm good with that, as long as you'll stand in the breach and fight.
We're equal opportunity folks here.
Okay, major announcement today.
One of the guys, Dr. Stairs, you know, works with a major contributor.
Captain James Fennel, a legendary figure, and we're very honored to announce that Sky Horse and at War Room Press we have a major new book coming out around CPAC time.
I want to bring in Captain Fennel.
Captain Fennel, you essentially cashiered your career for sounding a warning and now you've written a book really about the warning to the United States on the eve of the election in Taiwan.
Where the PLA just came out, I think, yesterday and said, hey, we don't care if Taiwan and its American partner does anything provocative, we're moving on this because anything not to unite, it's not reunite, it's unite this province, what they call it, or this nation of free Chinese to the CCP will not happen.
Sir, tell me about the book, the timing of it, and really what you say about the elites in this country and what they've done.
jim fanell
Well, Steve, first of all, it was an honor to work on this book with Brad Thayer.
He's really, I'd say, the driving force behind the book, and so it's my honor to work with him.
And thank you for your support to help us get this published.
And the purpose of the book is to really inform the American public and to educate them about how we got to this place where we had a The policy of engagement and embracing the PRC, the Chinese Communist Party, over the last 30 to 40 years.
And we didn't understand the true intentions of the Chinese Communist Party and their global worldview and how they want to take over that world and they want to destroy the United States of America.
And so in this book, Brad and I go through and Talk about various elements of this.
From my perspective, the thing that I kind of brought to bear was my practitioner's experience of working inside the Navy and inside the intelligence community and giving some examples of how the intelligence community and my own Navy's leaders basically perpetuated this engagement policy without really recognizing the threat 30 years ago, 20 years ago, 10 years ago, and did anything to change course.
Your prior guest, the congressman from Arizona, talked about this mindset inside DC where people just say it's impossible, you can't change anything.
And then essentially that's what has happened in the national security arena when it comes to the People's Republic of China.
We were told that we had to engage and engagement would change them and they would come around.
And what we've actually seen over the last 40 years is China's gotten more aggressive More powerful and more threatening.
And as you mentioned, you know, it's just past midnight in Taiwan right now.
So 23 million people are going to vote for, you know, their future leader, their future president.
Within 24 hours, we'll know who's won.
And if the Democratic Progressive Party candidate wins, which is the current administration, if that same party stays in power, we can expect China to start really ratcheting up the threats.
Uh, even more than they have in the last two years.
And, uh, you know, we may be looking at an invasion sometime in the next, uh, year, year and a half.
And it could be sooner.
It could be later, but it's very serious, uh, that what China wants to do and the United States is unprepared and we have not deterred the PRC in any way, shape or form.
And that's really the thesis of the book is we have not done our job, uh, to carry on with, uh, the legacy that we had handed to us.
From the people that won World War II and won the Cold War.
And we kind of dropped the ball.
And this book explains that in some detail.
steve bannon
Captain, can you and Dr. Thayer, and Dr. Thayer has been central to our coverage of Taiwan.
Can you guys hang on?
We're going to take a short commercial break and we're going to return.
I want to continue this conversation.
Also, Chris Hoar is with us.
He's got some specials that the satellite phone store has been good enough to make available for the War Room Posse.
I want to take a short commercial break.
What I was saying before about the Birchgold, the end of the dollar empire.
Remember what Captain Thayer and them were talking about is what the structures came at the end of World War Two.
One was to make us the prime reserve currency after Bretton Woods, after the devastation of really England and the rest of the world.
But no longer could the pound be the prime reserve currency.
We're seeing the end of that.
We're updating the fourth free installment, The Debt Trap, to get you the current numbers as we go into a massive fight this weekend and next week about a shutdown of Biden's illegitimate regime.
Short commercial break.
Back in a moment.
unidentified
I've got a statement for you here.
After weeks of hard-fought negotiations, we achieved a strong top-line agreement that allows our appropriations committee and all those who work on this to complete the appropriations process.
It's an important part of keeping the government running.
The top-line agreement includes hard-won concessions, To cut more billions, as you know, from the IRS giveaway and the COVID-era slush funds.
It replaces accounting gimmicks from the prior FRA agreement and it brings Congress much closer to regular order, which is our big commitment here.
And keeping with my commitment to bring members into the legislative process, I've spoken and received feedback this week from many members all across the Republican Congress.
That's a very important part of this.
I became Speaker.
I committed to decentralizing the Speaker's office and making this a member-driven process.
That's been part of this.
Our top-line agreement remains.
We are getting our next steps together, and we are working toward a robust appropriations process.
So stay tuned for all that.
steve bannon
We'll stay tuned for the motion to vacate.
That's just an outright lie.
Of course, right after that, Jake Sherman tweets out, Johnson is huddling with House Freedom Caucus members on the floor.
He's getting chewed out, per a source.
Of course he's getting chewed out, because he just lied right there.
I know, because I talked to a lot of these folks.
They haven't agreed.
They want the top line dropped.
In fact, he said he agreed to it in the room yesterday.
When he came in the room, he's like, he'll agree to anything.
Are you kidding me?
A hard-fought negotiation?
Bro, You're talking to people here that are hard and tough.
They don't want to hear your happy talk.
Your happy talk doesn't cut it anymore.
Remember DeSantis said, gosh, I thought it was all about Fox and a couple of talk radio, all this new media that all have an agenda.
Oh yeah, we have an agenda.
Here's the agenda.
We have an agenda to save this fricking Republic that was bequeathed to us as a constitutional Republic and not to see it go in one generation.
Captain Fennell, this book is damning.
It's an indictment.
It's an indictment, not a political indictment on any one party, but it's an indictment on really a generation that will go down in history as a not the greatest generation.
Sir, did the Chinese Communist Party have any respect?
For the people that pitched engagement and pitched basically the Thucydides trap and all of it, that we're the declining power, they're the rising power, and we just got to get along with them, and we got to help them figure it out.
Sir, did they hold them in contempt, or did they look at them as actually smart guys they could work with?
jim fanell
Oh, they mock them.
They think they're fools, and they take advantage of them, and they use their inclination to engage as a weapon against us.
And they've been doing it successfully for 40, 50 years.
And it's remarkable that, as you say, it's an indictment against a whole system that's designed to provide for our national security and national defense against strategic peer competitors.
And we didn't do that.
And these people, it's, in fact, in the last year, this administration has basically said, we're going back to the pre-Trump era of engagement.
And that's why you saw, you know, many, many cabinet members and then the meeting with the president in San Francisco in November.
It's all about engagement now.
And the whole coterie of people that write for academia and government agencies and think tanks, they're pumping out articles like crazy, like they did before Trump, talking about why engagement's great, what we get from it.
And it's really just, we're back to the same trough, dog eating its vomit.
steve bannon
Your book to me epitomizes, when I read the galleys, is that it's not simply Biden being there and taking a beating from Xi, who's telling him what they're going to do in Taiwan.
The worst element was, but epitomized your book, that the book has a handshake on the cover, but it's the toast.
Those 400 traders that were there and toasted Xi as a conquering hero in San Francisco, as somebody they want to be in business with.
Your thoughts about that?
jim fanell
Well, yeah, that was a perfect example of this system.
After all these years, after all that we know, after all the jobs that were removed from this country, after all the people who've died every year from fentanyl, 100,000 every year, after all the money that's been lost, after everything, after the disrespect to our In every way, shape, and form, we have people that will still go and toast and pay $4,000 to sit at a table with Xi and hear him talk as if he was Moses coming down from Mount Ararat.
I mean, it's just insane.
And there they are.
They were all in front of us, not ashamed in any way, shape, or form, because it's a global movement for them, and they think that they can bring China into their global agenda.
And it's failed.
It's going to fail.
steve bannon
In May of 2019, Wang Qishan and Xi told us, after negotiating for two years, they tore up the Lighthizer deal, which had taken care of the seven deadly sins.
It would have integrated them, truly integrated them, into the global financial model.
And they said no.
Two years we negotiated.
That was Trump's greatest triumph.
And they said, we're not going to do this.
Because if we do this, we're going to be subservient to the foreign devils.
And we're not going to do that.
May of 2019, We'll go down, at least now, and maybe it's coming up, maybe we start in 2024, but up till now, May of 2019, is the most important month in geopolitics in this century, where the Chinese Communist Party said, after two years, knowing what Trump could do, they tore it up and said no, they came back with a smaller deal later.
And that smaller deal was only driven by Wall Street in there, that worked the Chinese Communist Party to try to get access to their assets.
That's a topic for a different day.
Dr. Thayer, We wanted you guys on in the eve of this historic vote, which you've helped us so much every day to lay out.
Give me, as we're on the eve of it, given your... Who are the elites in this country rooting for in Taiwan in this election, sir?
bradley thayer
Well, Steve, thank you so much for your strong support for the book.
You contributed the foreword, and we're very grateful for you for doing that, and the great team at Skyhorse, and of course, Jim Fennell, my co-author, who lived this, Uh, and endured it in the course of his career, uh, in naval intelligence and saw what was happening and what folks in the military, the intelligence community and the government, uh, were doing.
Uh, and, uh, uh, Jim of course, just, uh, is an American hero and people need to know his name.
The audience needs to know his name.
With respect to Taiwan, Steve, for whom are they rooting?
I think it's quite clear, and that is they're quite willing to sell out Taiwan and the Taiwanese people so that they can continue their engagement policy with the People's Republic of China, with the dictator Xi Jinping.
So there's nothing that these people won't do to sustain engagement, right?
It's a form of an addiction, and it's the 11th commandment.
There can be nothing that changes or threatens engagement, and that explains their great hatred of Trump.
It explains their hatred of the American people.
It explains their hatred of the Chinese people and the Taiwanese people, too, all of whom they're willing to sacrifice So that they can continue to make their profits, so that they can continue to sustain the world that they want.
And as Jim said, the communist Chinese are looking at this, they're thanking their lucky stars that they have an American elite who are so stupid, who are strategically illiterate, and know nothing of power politics.
The way the Chinese communists see the world is through a mocked politic lens.
It's all about power, and it's all about who rules over whom.
And they understand that very well.
And they're thanking their lucky stars that they have an American elite who are so corrupt, so venal, and willing to sell out their own people, the American people, their allies, for what?
For profits, for a little bit more money.
And that's the story of the book in large measure.
We're explaining how China went from a third world country, a poor country, producing about 1.6% of world gross domestic product to about 18%, 19% by 2019.
And they did that not by themselves, right?
They did that with this help, support of the American elite.
And that's the cost.
They sold out everything that our grandfathers built, our parents built, the Pax Americana, the stability that we had at the end of the Cold War, right?
That should have lasted a century.
And instead, what happened?
They sold it out for money.
And thus gave rise to this odious regime.
They saved the Chinese Communist Party and have made it such a potent force in international politics and a direct existential threat to the American people.
So there has to be an accounting, and this book hopefully will start that.
steve bannon
An accounting and eventually a reckoning.
There's going to be a reckoning.
This is the anti-Kissinger view of the world, which means it's the real view of the world.
Dr. Thayer, where do we get the book?
A magnificent cover.
Let's put it back up there.
Where do they get the book starting today?
And where do they get you on social media?
You're going to be with us on the afternoon and evening shows about Taiwan and tomorrow as we cover this wall-to-wall.
We're giving more coverage to Taiwan, actually, than Iowa, and the reason is, Iowa, President Trump's locked it in.
It's a fight for second, and we'll cover that, obviously, but Taiwan is all the chips on the table.
Where do people go, sir?
bradley thayer
Well, folks will be able to get it at Amazon, of course, and wherever they buy books.
But, Steve, we're very pleased that, with your great help, we'll have the book launch at CPAC in February.
So we'll have the official launch of the book then, and we're looking forward to that very much.
steve bannon
Thank you so much.
Captain Finnell, I don't think you do social media, do you?
I'm not sure you're a social media type, are you?
jim fanell
Not really.
steve bannon
I didn't think so.
We're going to have you back on, obviously a big kickoff at CPAC.
Honored to have you do this book.
It's magnificent.
Embracing Communist China, the greatest strategic defeat of the United States of America.
It is not just compelling reading, it's shocking reading.
But if you want to understand where we are really and how we get out of this, the awakening The Accountability and then the Reckoning.
You have to start with this book.
Guys, thank you so much on Amazon, up on Amazon today and over at Skyhorse.
It's one of the War Room books.
So guys, thank you very much.
Honored to have you on here.
Incredible.
We're gonna, so coverage wall-to-wall on Taiwan, obviously Iowa, MTG starts at the top of the hour, live streaming, Dr. McCullough, these other heroes in a house hearing on vaccine damage, right?
We're gonna get, we gotta get to that.
Is Chris Hoare, do I have Chris Hoare?
Chris Hoare, I really want to thank you.
You're kicking off the year here We met in Phoenix with your team.
The War Impossi is so grateful for the specialties you put up.
Tell us what you got for us today.
chris hoar
Well, Steve, the speaker may not believe in cutting costs, but we certainly do, and we've got a great deal for the war on posse today.
We have a free Iridium 955 satellite phone.
We've got a free Pelican case, or a hard case, and a free Faraday bag.
All you need to do is give us a call at 941-955-1020 and activate your phone, and you get $1,600 worth of equipment for free.
It's a free sat phone, a free Faraday bag, and a free hard case.
And Steve, I wanted to bring up to you something that I just saw.
It came out a couple of weeks ago over Christmas.
But going back to August 8th in Lahaina, there was only one gentleman who had a satellite phone in Lahaina, and that phone enabled him.
He was the manager, Mark Botka, of the Maui Ocean Club.
That satellite phone enabled him to keep 14,000 people off the roads and get warnings out to many, many others, saving countless lives.
Because he had a satellite phone.
And satellite phones, Steve, as you know, they work no matter what is going on.
They worked in the middle of these raging fires in Maui when all the cell towers were down, and they will work wherever you are on Earth.
This satellite phone will work anywhere on Earth.
And at sat123.com, you can go and see what an incredible deal this is.
Again, a free phone, a free Faraday bag to protect you from EMP attacks, solar flares, and a free hard case.
Keep your phone safe at all times.
All for free when you activate at $99.95 a month.
You can call us at 941-955-1020.
That's 941-955-1020.
That's 9419551020.
This is a limited time deal, Steve, but this is about giving your users a real value and helping keep them safe.
steve bannon
Thank you so much, brother.
I'm gonna have you back on about this Maui situation.
So we'll work out the two.
short break back in a moment okay we're gonna go live over to the house An incredibly important hearing is about to start, chaired by MTG.
It's going to be on vaccine injuries.
We've got McCulloch, all these other heroes.
We're going to live stream it.
We're going to have Naomi Wolf and Dan Flynn from War Room Essentials on 5 and 6 tonight to discuss what happened in this very important hearing.
Congressman Green joins us.
Congressman, before I talk to you about this historic kind of first-ever hearing you're having about this, I'm totally confused now, because I talked to you and many of your colleagues that had conversations with Speaker Johnson, and he's out there saying, no, nobody came to me and said they had a problem with the Schumer deal.
Actually, the Schumer deal is agreed, and we're going to kind of move on, and it's all happy-clappy.
Is that actually accurate?
Because I heard from a number of individuals that it was the exact opposite.
That not only did you guys tell them that it wasn't working, but you told them it wasn't going to work.
Oh, we just lost?
That's okay.
Okay, we'll try to get back.
Man, I had my great tea up right there.
Here's what happened.
As I've heard from any number of people, that the conversations with Johnson, that's why I think he's getting lit up on the House floor right now before they break for the weekend, is that they told him point blank, the deal with Schumer doesn't work.
It doesn't work on any different level.
And don't keep sitting there and say there's hard-fought negotiations and then bring up the $16 billion.
Let me just reiterate this, and you heard Eli Crane say they will never address this.
This has to be addressed by you in the audience.
202-225-3121.
And you have to call them and say, look, stop giving us happy talk.
Stop tapping us along.
We're not going to take it anymore.
In fact, it is a $2 trillion deficit.
This is what McCarthy gave us, a $2 trillion deficit this year, and right now it's projected the following year it's going to be $2 trillion.
We're adding a trillion dollars every 100 days now.
That's just the math.
We went from 33 to 34 trillion in 102 days, I think.
34 trillion in 102 days I think. Reason magazine is projected we're gonna be at another at 35 trillion by the end of March. This is not financeable.
Go to birchgold.com slash worm right now.
Make sure you get in line to get this totally free.
The, the, uh, end of the dollar empire, because I'm updating the fourth, the guys at Birch had a great idea.
I said, Steve, let's get the current numbers.
Let's, let's give the war room posse the ammunition they need.
And so we're scurrying.
To get this out in a kind of a new version, a new update.
The debt trap.
By the way, as soon as we get MTG up, we'll go.
If not, I want everybody to stick around and watch this hearing.
These are McCullough.
These are the top guys.
And they didn't want her to have this hearing.
They didn't.
Particularly some of the medical guys on the overall committee that got to the source of the COVID.
This is the team.
These are the folks that lit up Fauci.
And my understanding is Fauci's testimony was not the best, let's say.
But she's going to the vaccines now and she's going to vaccine injuries because this is an issue that has to be addressed also.
This is the eve of this.
This is why they put it.
There's nothing here.
That's not they don't think through.
This is why they put out the report yesterday about our two days ago on hydroxychloroquine.
Oh, it caused 17,000 deaths.
Well, that's nonsense.
We're going to have Naomi Wolf.
They've broken it apart.
We're going to have Naomi Wolf.
OK, we've got MTG and we've got a couple of minutes.
Congressman Green, before we talk about this historic hearing you're about to chair, tell me about Johnson sitting there and saying, hey, you guys were all in agreement.
You were all singing Kumbaya.
There's no controversy about the top line deal, the Schumer deal.
I've had 10 people tell me that's not true.
Just help me out.
Give me a minute on that.
Where are we standing with Johnson?
At least tell everybody he had hard-fought negotiations and MTG supports him.
unidentified
Well, I just have had meetings with him yesterday and today, since I was on your show yesterday, Steve.
In my meeting with him yesterday and many other members of Congress, I let Speaker Johnson know that in no way, shape, and form will I support any type of CR.
We aren't continuing Nancy Pelosi's budget.
And that if he moves forward with a separate deal trading our border security, weakening H.R.
2 in exchange for $60 billion to Ukraine, I told him yesterday in his office that I would vacate the chair, that that is absolutely unacceptable.
And we actually have the power of the purse.
We're the ones that are in control, and we need to control the negotiations.
I reiterated those same points this morning, so the ball is in his court.
steve bannon
By the way, everybody should go to MTG.com and get access to her book, MTG.
Congressman, this is a historic hearing.
Nobody on Capitol Hill wants to have it except you.
You've got nothing but heroes.
We're live-streaming it.
We're turning our 5 and 7 show over to both this and Taiwan and Iowa.
What should our audience look for today?
What are you trying to accomplish?
unidentified
Well, I serve on the COVID Select Committee, and since day one, I have been demanding a hearing on the vaccines that were mandated on Americans and mandated on people all over the world.
The numbers are astounding, and VAERS reports with vaccine injury and death, and yet the only people that refuse to talk about it are those in Washington, D.C.
And you and I both know, Steve, they're also funded by Big Pharma.
So we are holding our own separate hearing today.
We've got three great doctors, Dr. Peter McAuliffe.
We've got Dr. Ryan Cole, Dr. Kirk Milhoun.
These are all cardiologists.
These are all blood doctors.
They're experts in their field.
I'm really looking forward to asking them questions.
We have Senator Ron Johnson here and other members of Congress are coming in as we're starting our hearing.
Very shortly.
We're just minutes away and we're going to ask the hard questions, the ones that no one in Washington wants to ask.
We're digging for the truth and the answers because these vaccines are killing people every day and the CDC recommends it on the child vaccine schedule and now babies and children are being forced to take these vaccines and they really owe a huge explanation of them felt because you've got five there and others who have made billions and billions of dollars and now they're turning and buying cancer cure medication and and other things and so
with this is going to be a historic hearing and i hope that i hope it the start of transparency and trade for the american people here in washington dc well it took a lot of guts cuz you're swimming upstream here It took a lot of guts to do this.
steve bannon
We look forward, we're going to stream it live.
We look forward to seeing you back here five to seven tonight when you finish this for your observations of how it went.
Thank you so much.
Where do they get the book, Congressman Green?
Where do they go?
unidentified
That's mtgbook.com.
And I talk about COVID in my book as well.
Big chapter on that.
mtgbook.com.
Thank you, Steve.
I appreciate everybody.
steve bannon
Congressman, good luck today.
Congressman, we'll be watching.
See you back here this afternoon.
Congressman Marjorie Taylor Greene, Senator Johnson, these are heroes.
The pressure on them not to have this hearing was monumental.
Big Pharma does not want this.
Pfizer does not want this.
That's the underwriter for MSNBC and CNN.
So the pressure was incredible.
Charlie Kirk is up next on Real America's Voice.
Of course, we've got our radio network, John Fredericks Radio Network.
We're going to be streaming on Getter and Rumble, the hearings.
Make sure you check it out, dip in and out.
We're going to have a team on Taiwan, on Iowa, on this hearing, back here at 5 o'clock.
POSO's got a monster show at 2 o'clock.
Do not miss it.
