Pray for our enemies. | |
| Because we're going medieval on these people. | ||
| I got a free shot at 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. | |

Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose? | |

War Room, here's your host, Stephen K. Babb. | |
| Welcome back to The War Room here, Kash Fatale, Monica Crowley. | ||
| We have an exclusive, never-before-told story by Monica Crowley coming up on The Deep State, and I just want to remind the War Room posse, I know you guys are going nuts on social media spaces, but everybody blast out warroom.film, warroom.film, and pre-order your copy of Government Gangsters right now. | ||
| The movie premiering based on my best-selling book tomorrow, Thursday, at 2 p.m. | ||
| in the Miller High Life Arena, and there's no better Well, thank you so much. | ||
| And I've never publicly shared this story before. | ||
| And it was, you know, at the time, it didn't really register with me what happened. | ||
| of the movie. But Monica, I know you have something that involves Michael Flynn and | ||
| 2017 and what the deep state's doing and we wanted to take a segment, talk to you about | ||
| it. Well, thank you so much. And I've never publicly shared this story before. And it | ||
| was, you know, at the time it didn't really register with me what happened. But subsequently, | ||
| given everything we now know about the deep state, it was clear what their objective was. | ||
| So in December of 2016, right after President Trump was elected the first time, I got a | ||
| a call from General Flynn. | ||
| And he wanted me to take the position of Director of Strategic Communications for the National Security Council. | ||
| I didn't even know this, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| This is pretty breaking, so this is pretty cool. | ||
| Which was, of course, my dream job. | ||
| So, of course, I said yes. | ||
| The president wanted me to do it. | ||
| General Flynn wanted me to do it. | ||
| And, of course, I jumped at the opportunity to serve the agenda and to serve my country. | ||
| And I felt very blessed. | ||
| So, I accepted the position. | ||
| And a couple of weeks later, early January of 2017, I got a phone call. | ||
| Now, keep in mind that the position that I was assuming had about eight billets assigned to it, and billets are different positions under your position that you can fill for different things. | ||
| So, I needed somebody who knew the inside Intel game, somebody who knew the outside Intel game, and I was in the process of interviewing a lot of people for my STRATCOMS team for the National Security Council. | ||
| So in early January, I get a phone call, not from the Trump side of the transition, not the Trump transition team, the government side of the transition. | ||
| A woman I had never met before. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| So I get this phone call and she says, Monica, I understand that you are in the process of hiring five to eight people immediately. | ||
| And I said, yes. | ||
| And she said, well, I have good news and I have bad news. | ||
| And I said, okay. | ||
| This is the person running Obama's transition out. | ||
| Running the government side of the transition. | ||
| Career transition. | ||
| Correct. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| Correct. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And I said, okay, what is it? | ||
| And she said, well, the bad news is that Ben Rhodes, who was Obama's STRATCOMS director, so my, would have been my predecessor. | ||
| Architect of Russiagate, no big deal. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| She said Ben Rhodes and his team have already pre-spent the first quarter of the NSC budget. | ||
| They spent your money? | ||
| They spent President Trump's money, the American people's money, and certainly the money from my team and more broadly the NSC. | ||
| So she said that's the bad news. | ||
| We will not have money. | ||
| We will have money for General Flynn, General Kellogg and you, but we will not have money for your team until after the first quarter. | ||
| So around April 1st, we'll begin to get money for people that you can hire. | ||
| And I said, I said, I'm sorry, what? | ||
| I said, are you telling me that I'm going to have to do this job by myself for the first three months? | ||
| And she said, well, no, here is where the good news comes in. | ||
| She said to me, Cash, and I quote, the good news is that Ben Rhodes has three people already on staff that have been detailed from places like the State Department and the CIA. | ||
| So they're trying to jam you. | ||
| already on staff and their salaries are already taken care of. | ||
| So for at least the first three months, you were entitled to keep them. | ||
| Entitled? As if they were doing you a favor. | ||
| I swear to God. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh my God. | |
| And so I instantly realized what was happening and I said to her point blank, | ||
| I appreciate the offer. | ||
| You thank them for their service, and you tell them they are relieved as of January 20th, 2017. | ||
| And I said, you know what, ma'am? | ||
| I will do this job myself until April 1st, until I can get my team. | ||
| So it was very clear that they wanted me to accept Deep State spies on my team, at least for a period of time. | ||
| And they were open about it. | ||
| I'd never heard... Well, she didn't say it in that... She was like, oh, we're gonna hook you up and help you out by having these three guys stay on with you to help you during the transit. | ||
| And I was like, oh, hell no. | ||
| I will do the job by myself for three months before I'd take that. | ||
| I know Monica's gonna expand on that on her show. | ||
| And you gotta go watch the Monica Crowley show every single time it's on. | ||
| But I think... On Rumble. | ||
| On Rumble. | ||
| I think it is a very telling story for anyone involved in what we hope is a President Trump-Vance transition team, because that's what they're going to do. | ||
| I ran the DOD transition for President Trump on the way out of office, and I saw we didn't bootstrap them. | ||
| They were coming in, and President Trump said, you are going to run the largest transition we've ever done for the Department of Defense, and we did just that. | ||
| But what they did to you is what they might be preparing to do right now should Trump and Vance win. | ||
| At not just the NSC, at every department, because they're going to go out and grab the purse strings and say, oh, well, we've hired some fabulous careers. | ||
| Here you go. | ||
| You're stuck with them. | ||
| And I hope everyone's as brave as Monica Crowley to go in there and call them out and do it professionally. | ||
| There's no need to antagonize them. | ||
| But we have to abide by the fact that whoever wins this election is our commander in chief and he gives the lawful commands. | ||
| He gets the personnel. | ||
| If he picks Monica Crowley, which, by the way, he must pick Monica Crowley to do something really big. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| then she's got to go in there and implement her ideology, her staffing, her maneuvers | ||
| under President Trump's leadership. | ||
| That's an incredibly troubling story. | ||
| That aspect of the deep state, I just didn't even think they would. | ||
| And literally the next day, the Deep State moved against me, which is why I never assumed that job, because I was under attack by the Deep State and had to step aside to deal with restoring my reputation. | ||
| So look, we're dealing with very dark, shadowy figures. | ||
| I think if I had accepted the three Ben Rhodes, Obama characters, I would not have faced the Deep State onslaught that I faced. | ||
| Ultimately, I did get into the Trump administration at the Treasury Department and had, first of all, the time of my life serving my country. | ||
| It was amazing. | ||
| And I look forward to round two with you. | ||
| Let's do it. | ||
| Well, I know that was a troubling but truthful story. | ||
| Let's go to some fun live with the great Ben Berquam. | ||
| Coming in hot. | ||
| What's up, Ben? | ||
| Great to see you. | ||
| Probably one of the bravest photojournalists out there. | ||
| Videographers, I probably got that wrong. | ||
| But Ben Berkram has no fear. | ||
| If you guys haven't watched Ben's videos non-stop, you gotta go to his social media. | ||
| And this guy is on the border. | ||
| He'll text me the next day he's in Europe. | ||
| He'll text me the day after that he's in Southeast Asia. | ||
| And the next day his wife's having another wonderful child. | ||
| It's just incredible. | ||
| Ben, tell us about the ride here at the RNC for you. | ||
| You know, it's funny, you struggled with what to call me. | ||
| CNN asked me that a couple days ago. | ||
| And I was like, well, I guess I'm an opinion journalist. | ||
| I'm an immersion journalist. | ||
| Immersion, I like that. | ||
| But I'm really just a truth teller. | ||
| Where I started, I was just a grassroots guy in California, saw our country going to hell, and I said, why is nobody telling the truth about this stuff? | ||
| And this was years ago. | ||
| This was, you know, back before President Trump announced he was running. | ||
| Turned my life around from drugs and alcohol, and God put me on this path. | ||
| And it was like, I'm out there with my phone, doing this thing. | ||
| And now you see where we're at in this country, where we are the ascendant media, while the fake news propaganda media is dying. | ||
| And, you know, it's really a It's a great time to be in this, but it's also an incredibly important time for people that actually love this country, love truth, to stand up and fight because you see it right now. | ||
| I mean, obviously the elephant in the room has been President Trump almost dying three days ago. | ||
| The mainstream media, their complicity in this, and I'm out with the protesters on day one and not a single one of them will denounce the assassination attempt against President Trump. | ||
| It's just pure evil. | ||
| So this is what it is. | ||
| We're in a battle of good versus evil. | ||
| It's time for the good men and women to rise. | ||
| And if we do that, we win. | ||
| If we don't, we lose it all. | ||
| I'm so glad that you characterized it as good versus evil. | ||
| I've been talking about this on my podcast forever, the spiritual nature of this war. | ||
| This is God versus the enemy, good versus evil, however you want to characterize it. | ||
| But the evil now is right in our faces and has been for a very long time. | ||
| A lot of demons are making themselves known, and that's why we need good people standing up for our families, our communities, and our country. | ||
| Yeah, you know, and you mentioned my children, my wife. | ||
| I have an incredible wife who escaped communism. | ||
| Her family escaped communism to come to America to live the American dream. | ||
| I'm gone too much. | ||
| You know, I've got a 6-month-old baby, a 13-year-old, a 7-year-old. | ||
| And I see that, you know, it's that balance of life. | ||
| But I look at it and I say, OK, if we don't stand up now, they have no future. | ||
| And as a father, as the leader, as the protector of my household, it's our duty to do that. | ||
| And I look at the evil that I've experienced, you know, Antifa attacking me, and the stitches I've had on my head, and spit I've had in my mouth, and all kinds of just really terrible things, and I just say, if I don't do it, my kids are gonna have to deal with this, and it's our duty to do it. | ||
| But it all, Monica, it all comes back to that. | ||
| This is purely good versus evil. | ||
| When you're on the street with Antifa and the pro-Hamas protesters, do you actually see the Absolutely. | ||
| You can feel the demons. | ||
| And I feel the other side. | ||
| I feel God's angel armies walk with me as we go into it. | ||
| And so depending, no matter where you go, and this is my encouragement to anybody out there. | ||
| I'm not, I'm not fearless. | ||
| I go, you know, I'm scared a lot, but it's courage is not the absence of fear. | ||
| It's what you do with it and choosing to walk into it. | ||
| And I just pray before I go into any of this stuff. | ||
| I just say, Lord, send your angel armies with me. | ||
| I go where you lead. | ||
| And sometimes he says go, and sometimes he says don't. | ||
| And I think that you've got to be wise in where we go and where we don't. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| I'm just telling you, you can feel it. | ||
| If you have spiritual discernment, you walk out into that crowd of Antifa and Hamas and all these guys, there are demons all throughout them. | ||
| And a lot of them are led by demons. | ||
| But the beauty is our angels are stronger. | ||
| God is stronger. | ||
| We win. | ||
| All we have to do is claim the victory and walk into it. | ||
| Well, we saw this on Saturday. | ||
| We saw the clear hand of God. | ||
| Incredible. | ||
| Just astonishing. | ||
| Every day after, I look at it and it's more incredible to me. | ||
| I mean, the first day it was like, wow. | ||
| Oh, that was neat. | ||
| I mean, at first it was like, what even happened? | ||
| Was that a bottle rocket? | ||
| All the reporting was coming out. | ||
| It was like, oh, cool. | ||
| President Trump's okay. | ||
| All of this. | ||
| And then the more you think about it, How close that came. | ||
| The timing of him turning his head, the milliseconds, the millimeters of that trajectory change in that distance of a shot to mean the difference between life and death in such a catastrophic fashion on live TV. | ||
| God was there, no doubt about it. | ||
| And you know what, and Cash, you can weigh in on this too, and I said this yesterday on my podcast, that was a messaging event. | ||
| Yes, of course they wanted him dead, but it was a messaging event because it was in broad daylight, the middle of the day, on live TV. | ||
| They wanted to assassinate him on live TV, blow his head off. | ||
| So that was a messaging event, not just to take him out, but to all of us who stand for America first, that we can get you the way we're getting him. | ||
| A powerful messaging event for danger. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And I think what you two have talked about with crystal clarity is how you come out on the other side of that and say, no, we can save this Republic. | ||
| And so in the minute we have left, Ben, what are you going to capture here at the RNC in your amazing photography, videography, I'm just gonna have to make up a word, in your Ben Berkwan-isms? | ||
| It's two, so it's getting the real voices of the people, the people that love this country, and inspiring them, being inspired by them, and projecting that out so that there is no fear that we walk in truth, that we walk in boldness. | ||
| And then the other side of that, I may have some fun with some of the other networks and some of the other people. | ||
| We'll see, we'll see. | ||
| The event is still young. | ||
| They deserve it. | ||
| They absolutely do, Ben. | ||
| I mean, I wish there were more people in journalism like you who are willing to go out there and just put it all on the line. | ||
| I mean, folks, if you haven't seen these videos, you have to go watch them and you have to follow them because if you want to see real news, talk to real Americans, right? | ||
| Don't talk to the talking heads like CNN and MSNBC do. | ||
| Talk to the real Americans that President Trump was braving to put on stage last night. | ||
| That's who Ben Burkham's going out there to do. | ||
| So how do they follow you for the rest of the convention? | ||
| At Ben Berkwam on social media. | ||
| Our next episode of Law & Border will be coming out very soon. | ||
| Americasvoice.news and everything else, FrontlineAmerica.com, Substack, all the rest of it. | ||
| So, honored to be with you, honored to stand with this network. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You too, Ben. | |
| Thank you. | ||
| Thanks so much, my friend. | ||
| We'll see you on the other side. | ||
| War Room.film, Government Gangsters, book your movie, buy it all. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Don't be a loser. | |
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bamm. | ||
| Hey everybody, welcome back to the War Room. | ||
| A rock star has just entered the arena here. | ||
| Anna Paulina Luna, Congresswoman from South Florida, is going to be talking to us about her latest insights into Merrick Garland, inherent contempt, the Secret Service, the blockade of information that is not being sent to members of Congress who represent the American people. | ||
| So I'm so thrilled to have her and Monica Crowley here. | ||
| Monica and her are set up to take it away because I don't want to interfere with this amazing conversation. | ||
| Well, thank you, Cash, and please chime in. | ||
| Anna, it's great to see you. | ||
| Thank you so much for joining us this morning. | ||
| Thanks for being back on. | ||
| And by the way, I said to you before you sat down, you were behind the president last night. | ||
| You look spectacular, absolutely gorgeous. | ||
| So, in addition to being one of the greatest firebrands we have for America First, you're stunningly beautiful. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you. | |
| I'm going to come on the show more often. | ||
| This is how we do it. | ||
| This is good. | ||
| I know now why you like to come on. | ||
| All true. | ||
| All true. | ||
| Talk to us first about Inherent Contempt, which you have brought against Merrick Garland, the sitting Attorney General, for defying congressional subpoena to come forward and turn over the Robert Herr audiotapes of his conversation with Joe Biden. | ||
| The same defiance that Steve Bannon is in prison for, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Correct. | |
| Which is why you and I are hosting and Steve Bannon is not today. | ||
| So can you tell us the status of that? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, so no changes. | |
| I think it's really important for people to know that before what happened with the assassination attempt that President Trump said not only does he want this to go forward, but also too he wants Jack Smith subpoenaed. | ||
| And so I think the American people should realize this is the leader of our party. | ||
| There's a reason why he's embraced this. | ||
| It is an effective tool that was written by one of our founding fathers and supposed to be an accountability mechanism. | ||
| And so, you know, I tell people and people say, well, give us names and what I will tell those people is that we are going to ensure that the people that are blockading us are going to Find a different job, because what I've experienced over the last couple of weeks is when they say the swamp is real, and then you're seeing that there are Republican staff that are intentionally undermining the true legal arguments for what inherent contempt is, telling members of Congress that this is unconstitutional, that it can't be passed, and then directly undermining the negotiated release of the tapes with the White House. | ||
| In my opinion, not only are they not Republican, not only should they not be working for the House of Representatives, But I would argue that they're probably controlled opposition because why would you undermine the release of those tapes? | ||
| Republican staff. | ||
| This is not Maxine Waters staff or Hakeem Jeffries staff. | ||
| Republican staff. | ||
| Yeah, so clearly controlled opposition. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And you know, they don't want members of Congress to know the rules. | |
| the only reason I found out about this is because I read Jefferson's manual when I was out with recovering from | ||
| childbirth, really. And I worked with a great attorney that actually helped kind of run the traps to understand it. But | ||
| what I will say is that this is absolutely an accountability | ||
| mechanism. It's absolutely coming back. I do believe that we have the votes to pass it. As you saw, we had two pieces | ||
| of legislation that actually gone down because we think we had | ||
| like 11 members missing. People flew out early. And honestly, | ||
| You know, we have one job, it's to vote. | ||
| And so I'm going to be making sure that we bring that on a daily record. | ||
| The importance of this, just for people who aren't familiar with these, you know, this web of congressional rules that Anna had to go out and discover, which I find horrifying being the guy who ran the Russiagate investigation as a staffer. | ||
| I thought they were readily available and people knew about them. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They don't teach you. | |
| It's unbelievable. | ||
| But two, it's simple. | ||
| She is one of the brave Congresswomen that are there to try to get information, not for herself. | ||
| She's trying to get it to the American public. | ||
| And Republican staff are blocking her ability to do so, along with the Biden administration, of course. | ||
| And so just for the war room posse that's out there, all she's trying to do is get the American people the documents that show whether or not they are violating the law, and also the audio tapes so we can just listen to Joe Biden. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And I want people to know, too, though, I actually offered to go with a handful of members because the argument is, well, Republicans just want these tapes to cut them up before the election. | |
| OK, that was the big argument from the Democrats and the White House. | ||
| We actually offered to go into a skiff and listen to these audio recordings, not even taking them out with us. | ||
| And they still wouldn't let us do that. | ||
| So then that brings me to my next question. | ||
| What the hell are on the tapes? | ||
| Were they actually preventing us from listening to them in a skiff? | ||
| They wouldn't even do that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Correct. | |
| And that prompts the question of Merrick Garland, the sitting Attorney General, is willing to take on a contempt of Congress charge in order to protect those tapes. | ||
| Those tapes have to be catastrophically bad for Joe Biden. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's worse than Watergate, if you look at it from what Garland is doing from that perspective. | |
| It really is. | ||
| It's worse than Watergate. | ||
| But I would also say that, you know, it's pretty telling that within two days the Department of Justice said, we're not going to prosecute. | ||
| If he was a Republican, he'd be in jail. | ||
| Steve Bannon's in jail. | ||
| This is the two-tier administrative system of justice in the administrative state. | ||
| Donald Trump exerted executive privilege over Steve Bannon's subpoena. | ||
| Steve Bannon followed the exertion of executive privilege and is now in prison. | ||
| Now Congress subpoenas an audio tape from the Department of Justice And Garland goes running to daddy at the White House and says, please assert executive privilege. | ||
| He does so, violates a congressional subpoena, and then continues to be the number one cop in the United States of America outside of prison. | ||
| And the American people are deprived of the information you're so desperate to get. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They released a transcript that we believe is doctored and that he actually made an omission of testifying before Congress that there was Isn't that also against the law to doctor an official document? | |
| Yeah, not to mention they're interfering with an investigation. | ||
| So they released the transcript, which to my knowledge would waive executive privilege. | ||
| They can't do that. | ||
| That kind of goes out the window with that legal argument. | ||
| And then they're saying, well, you can see the transcript, but you can't actually see what the audio recording is, which means they edited it. | ||
| So what's the next step? | ||
| You're going to call for another vote. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So I'm calling for another vote. | |
| I'm bringing it to the floor and I do believe that we have the votes to pass it. | ||
| If I would have, if they would have called the vote, if Johnson would have said, hey, bring the vote that evening, we would have passed it. | ||
| It's just numbers literally left. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Um, there was actually, I think, two members had family emergencies. | ||
| There was a funeral. | ||
| Um, so there's some things that happened, but we would fad the votes. | ||
| We had the votes the day that it passed, and it passed. | ||
| They tried to send it to committee. | ||
| They tried to do a table, which means just kill it all together, and it passed, like, literally three attempts, and then... | ||
| So then what happens? | ||
| Assuming you get the vote, then an arrest warrant goes out and the Sergeant of Arms will arrest the Attorney General? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, so there's an amended version. | |
| So the amended version has a $10,000 a day fine for Garland each day that he defies a subpoena that he can only pay personally. | ||
| Exactly, which is a phenomenal concept with Congress, right? | ||
| We should be doing that more. | ||
| But, you know, what ultimately will happen is the House of Representatives, then likely, I don't think Garland will pay that. | ||
| And so they'll bring suit and force him to provide that payment, which is what they would do with any other person. | ||
| And so, again, this argument that it can't be done. | ||
| Actually, it can. | ||
| There was a Supreme Court case that upheld that ruling. | ||
| And so we are operating well within our authority. | ||
| And so when people try to say, you know, pull out their legal hats, no offense, Cash, but when they do... | ||
| I'm like, look, I might not be an attorney, but I know how to read. | ||
| I used to be one, but in the four or so minutes we have left, I really want the war room posse. | ||
| One, get behind Congresswoman Ana Paulina Luna's movement. | ||
| Call your congressman. | ||
| Call your congresswoman. | ||
| Call the Speaker's office. | ||
| And don't harass them. | ||
| Just tell them what your position is and support Ana. | ||
| This, I think, ties directly into the tragedy of President Trump's attempted assassination. | ||
| And again, the desire for the American public to know what happened. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| I've always said, having worked 16 years in national security intelligence and all this other stuff, don't accuse anyone yet. | ||
| Let's ask questions. | ||
| Let's get the documents. | ||
| It wasn't this person's fault or that person's fault. | ||
| We have to get information. | ||
| That's where Congress comes in. | ||
| Are you receiving the same blockade? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, we were supposed to get a briefing. | |
| I mean, we can provide and come up with stuff that we can find. | ||
| I've been doing my best as an investigator. | ||
| We still haven't gotten that. | ||
| And listen how many days it's been. | ||
| We should have had that almost immediately. | ||
| We have our first hearing on Monday, but Monday hearing with no briefing. | ||
| How are we supposed to prepare for that hearing? | ||
| I mean we can provide and come up with stuff that we can find. | ||
| I've been doing my best as an investigator. | ||
| What I will say is that I have direct sourcing with one of the individuals that was there | ||
| without, you know, this is obviously a live investigation. | ||
| So without naming them directly, but what I will say is that. | ||
| You know, there was two teams that one team that we saw on the roof initially, they were not the ones that actually took the shot that euthanized the shooter. | ||
| But the fact is, is that there was a way way big opportunity for local law enforcement to euthanize that shooter way beforehand, and I think they took a walk. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| So I'm going to send you—you don't have to read it, you can light it on fire—but yesterday on OutKick, Clay and Buck published my op-ed on what I think the next step should be to help Congress take charge and not let—I think it's monumentally unfair and disrespectful to have this FBI DOJ say they're going to run an investigation. | ||

Oh yeah, the same people that can't find the people that placed the pipe bomb at the RNC. | |
| Or the cocaine or buried Hunter Biden's laptop or raided Mar-a-Lago. | ||
| You cannot have them running this investigation. | ||
| So I laid out a roadmap, barring from my Russiagate days, on some things that Congress can do. | ||
| And I called on Speaker Johnson to take charge and not let the FBI and DOJ run it. | ||
| And don't cede. | ||
| People forget. | ||
| Congress, the legislative branch, is a coordinate, co-equal branch of government. | ||
| They are not subservient. | ||
| In fact, constitutionally, the DOJ and FBI report to you. | ||
| And so I would hope And I offered, I told him, I literally put in the op-ed, I'll literally run your investigation for free. | ||
| Call me anytime. | ||
| I might have done this a time or two. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Volunteer staffer. | |
| Yeah, great. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't care. | |
| I don't need the attention or credit, but anything we can do to help you lay the road? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, we have multiple members to include myself have asked for a select committee on this because I don't think it can be done. | |
| I think that's where it is. | ||
| It can be like one or two hearings on judiciary oversight or weaponization. | ||
| And I'm also under the idea that I feel like for a long time we had the ability to do more and people just slow roll things and I don't really care if that pisses people off. | ||
| Can we put you on the select committee? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Please? | |
| You know I would be more than willing to do that because I just I'm under the idea again I've seen enough people and it's just like you get out there and you see these people that have these reputations and then you see that they're slow rolling things. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They are slow rolling things and so that's not gonna fly. | |
| Excuse my language, I don't know how you say that. | ||
| We love it! | ||
| You can say whatever you want! | ||
| Say whatever the hell we want! | ||
| So where in the coming days, we know you're going to be here at the RNC. | ||
| We know you're speaking tonight. | ||
| What are you, maybe give us a little preview. | ||
| I know you don't want to give it all away. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I think it's really important that, and again, we see this with President Trump and now I think J.D. | |
| Vance, and that there is a massive movement of the American people that just don't want endless wars for no reason. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We're not war hawks. | |
| We're not part of the industrial complex. | ||
| And so I touched on that tonight. | ||
| Amazing. | ||
| Can't wait to see you. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Very exciting. | |
| And we're so grateful to you and your courage, your bravery, and your voice on all of these issues. | ||
| Yeah, I literally wish there was more of you. | ||
| Like, can we plan to grow you? | ||
| Can we clone you? | ||
|
unidentified
|
And a Paulina Luna? | |
| I would say we are more effective if you're not trying to be up there for 20 years. | ||
| So I don't want to do this for, you know, all Last year, which is what the Founding Fathers intended. | ||
| Citizen legislators. | ||
| Where can everyone find what you're doing and continue to stay up to speed on everything you talk about? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, so you can follow my official account for legislation at RepLuna and then my personal, which is where I put out more of the, I think, informational stuff that I'm seeing happening or wanting to change at Real Ana Paulina. | |
| This is great. | ||
| I follow both accounts. | ||
| They're amazing. | ||
| Let's help defeat the deep state together in the two-tier system of justice. | ||
| Congresswoman Ana Paulina Luna, look forward to her talk tonight. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you. | |
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bamm. | ||
| Welcome back to the War Room, Monica Crowley and dare I say one of my many, many man crushes, | ||
| Corey Mills, our great Congressman from the great state of Florida. | ||
| I love this warrior. | ||
| This guy served our country valiantly in uniform and then had the intestinal fortitude and maybe mental ineptitude to run for Congress. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's right. | |
| But thank God he's there. | ||
| Now, of course, he's one of our greatest fighters and we couldn't have a better person to sit down and talk about How the heck do we get information and accountability for America from the United States Congress, especially after the president, or the former president, hopefully future president Donald Trump, was shot. | ||
| Not shot at, shot. | ||
| And we do not have any more information on it. | ||
| All we have is speculation and theory. | ||
| It ties right into so many other things that we've been talking about. | ||
| How the unselect committee of January 6th was set up, and how we still don't have information like we just talked about with Rep. | ||
| Annapolina Luna. | ||
| We still don't have the Biden audiotapes that you guys submitted in Congress. | ||
| So, a lot of Americans don't know how to support the members of Congress in doing what they should be doing. | ||
| What do you want to be doing, and what do you need their support to do? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, look, at the end of the day, I think it's been established if you look at the 287,000 plus violations of our Fourth Amendment and the gross abuse of power that the FBI has utilized in trying to violate FISA and 702. | |
| I think that we saw what happened with James Comey. | ||
| I think we saw what Peter Strzok and Lisa Page and the fact that they will not hold an independent and fair and true investigation. | ||
| I think that we have to acknowledge the fact that we need to bring this in-house. | ||
| There needs to be a J13 commissioned select committee. | ||
| Look, that means that we in the House investigate this in its entirety. | ||
| We don't look at just what we want to look at or what we want to find or what we want to. | ||
| We're not going to do closed-door sessions. | ||
| There is no confidentiality. | ||
| We put everything in public for the American people. | ||
| Look, they pay my salary. | ||
| They pay for that house. | ||
| They should be also getting that information. | ||
| This is about we the people. | ||
| We have to have three things with every elected official moving forward. | ||
| Transparency, accountability, and accessibility. | ||
| That was the things that our founders got to, and that's the things that we have to get back to. | ||
| So what I want is this. | ||
| If we can have this J6 unselect committee, which is an illegitimate committee, which is why we need to release Steve Bannon, we need to release Peter Navarro, as it just got released, because you can't hold contempt for an illegitimate committee. | ||
| but we need a jay thirteen select committee | ||
| probably commissioned to do an investigation determine whether it's | ||
| negligence whether it's a direction of duty | ||
| or whether or not this is intentional look we cannot until the investigation | ||
| is proven say there's one thing or the other i'm from the united states | ||
| military and i was a counter sniper with the department of state might not think | ||
| it's a so i've done advances i've done counter sniper operations | ||
| a one hundred and sixty yard shot from a building that is elevated at | ||
| perfectly adjacent to the stage? | ||
| That is beyond negligence and I'm trying to not go ahead and say that this is absolute intentional, but here's what I'll say. | ||
| First they tried to censor and silence him, then they tried to indict and imprison him, now they've tried to kill him. | ||
| I'm not going to develop who the they are, but that's what the investigation is about. | ||
| We have to give confidence to the American people That this is either negligence, we remove Cheadle immediately, she needs to resign, she needs to be gone. | ||
| But we have to understand, D.E.I. | ||
| results in D.I.E. | ||
| We have to start looking at meritocracy, we have to start getting the absolute best, and we have to protect our President of the United States, our former President of the United States, our Vice Presidents, our elected officials. | ||
| This is the America that we're striving to get, not what we're seeing right now, where you go after your political opposition, where you weaponize lawfare, and where you potentially assassinate our former President. | ||
| Let me jump in and do something as a host I could probably get away with. | ||
| Probably not, but I'm sure the mainstream media will hate me for it. | ||
| I hereby ask Speaker Johnson to stand up this committee and put Cory Mills in charge of this committee. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I would rather not. | |
| And then you can take my op-ed and if you need a free investigator, I'll come work for you for free. | ||
| And just a piece on my friend Cory, because I know him so well, is He is one of the few people, maybe the only person, that's not in it for the money. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, this man donates every dollar he makes in the United States Congress to charity. | ||
| He does not receive a paycheck. | ||
| So if you think he's in this angling for a position or money, some others are. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And I don't buy selling trade stocks, and I actually support a stock ban for every member of Congress and their spouse. | |
| This is public service, not personal enrichment. | ||
| Just like we don't want biological men to have a plan B of sports in women's sports, This is not a plan B for failed private sector citizens to come in and make politics their actual career field. | ||
| Now Monica has more substantive questions. | ||
| Well, I was going to say that yesterday it was reported that the Biden administration including DHS and Secret Service We're made aware of an Iranian-based assassination plot against President Trump weeks ago, and I tweeted this yesterday, which makes what happened on Saturday even more egregious. | ||
| Can you unpack that? | ||
| Have you guys in Congress gotten any details about an Iranian assassination conspiracy? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, that was actually the first that I'd heard about it, but I wasn't surprised as he's been on that target hit list for a while since Qasem Soleimani and Abu Mariam Mohandas was eliminated as a true terrorist who not only killed hundreds of Americans, but wounded thousands and thousands more. | |
| So, that's not surprising to me. | ||
| Now, they are confirming that it wasn't actually related and or tied, but until you know the true motive and why this investigation is so important, You're not actually going to know that or not. | ||
| This is a gentleman who had very limited social media, who was kind of almost in a tradecraft type way, very recluse. | ||
| And that in itself should raise eyebrows. | ||
| Yes, maybe he was just an awkward 20-year-old kid who, you know, he had a couple of mental health issues, and that's something to address. | ||
| Maybe it was negligence. | ||
| Maybe it was a resource. | ||
| But if the Biden administration got credible intelligence about a credible Iranian assassination plot weeks ago, you would have thought that building would have been crawling with snipers on the roof, okay? | ||
| That's what makes it even more egregious. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, I'll go one step further. | |
| Not just for President Trump, but let's talk about RFK, who his father and uncle were assassinated and he was denied by the Biden administration any protection. | ||
| So, there's a lot to unpack here, but I can tell you right now, as someone who had gone and done advances before, you look at every single elevated shooting position that could potentially have line of sight on the stage itself. | ||
| You look at mitigating that. | ||
| When your counter snipers come out, they'll do their range sketch, they'll do their range fan to understand What buildings and what threats are in the area? | ||
| A building that is only 160 off the stage or even the water tower that people don't talk about that's only a couple hundred yards away. | ||
| These are all areas that I could simply get up to and let me just be clear. | ||
| I can take any individual who's never shot a day in their life, spend 10-15 minutes with them on a range and give them a rifle that's a fairly decent rifle you could probably buy out of a Walmart, right? | ||
| And I can get them to hit a pie plate at 160 to 200 no problem at all. | ||
| You're talking about a 1.6 to 2 inch Grouping capability on a 1 MOA rifle. | ||
| Let's say it's a 2 MOA rifle. | ||
| The average head is 6 by 8. | ||
| Your average shoulder length is 20 inches across. | ||
| Your average head to waist is 40 inches. | ||
| Now, a 3 inch grouping, a 4 inch grouping, a 5 inch grouping, still would be enough to assassinate our former president. | ||
| And I'll tell you, by divine intervention, That man is still here. | ||
| And I am a true believer that that man has donned the armor of God, which is in Ephesians 6. | ||
| He was shot at 6-11. | ||
| Go read Ephesians 6-11. | ||
| But I will tell you right now, there needs to be an investigation. | ||
| The Republican Party needs to stop saying we're the majority and start acting like the majority. | ||
| Do our jobs. | ||
| I would rather fight and lose than not fight at all. | ||
| And the American people and the viewers certainly in the war room posse, I know that they can accept that, but I can't sit here and allow this to happen again to any of our elected officials. | ||
| How is it possible that you have a 20-year-old individual, I don't know a single 20-year-old who has no digital footprint, no social media, no paper trail, digital trail whatsoever. | ||
| Okay, so he is a cipher. | ||
| This kid, kid, young adult is a cipher. | ||
| Which, to your point about intentionality, this is what the Deep State has done throughout history, MKUltra and the rest of it. | ||
| Training some kid who's been bullied, he's vulnerable, they brainwash, whatever. | ||
| We don't know if that's the case here. | ||
| But this cypher, how did he know that that building was going to be unarmed, unsecured, that perhaps there was a counter-sniper team inside but not on the roof? | ||
| How was he allowed to schlep a rifle with a rangefinder and a damn ladder to the building? | ||
|
unidentified
|
By the way, my understanding is that he didn't bring the ladder. | |
| The ladder was already out there. | ||
| Now, let's go ahead and say, for example, that it's a maintenance team who's changing lights and sometimes they don't put everything away and they leave it there. | ||
| Again, in police work, they call these clues. | ||
| We need to start doing this investigation so we can get to the bottom of why this happened. | ||
| Why there was certain things that seem more than just a coincidence, but very suspicious. | ||
| The American people need to have confidence that the government is not being further weaponized to attack a political opposition and the former and I believe to be president you know of the United States to be able to take and lead as commander-in-chief but unless we do this investigation unless we get Speaker Johnson to do a J13 style commission unless we get people on this commission who understands with the experience and background to ask the right questions we're never gonna know so there's always gonna be this conspiracy of maybe this happened and I know from my time in DC the difference between a conspiracy and facts is about six weeks | ||
| Yeah, no, it's true. | ||
| So the call to action is, and you're absolutely right, the call to action, look, we're here for Stephen Bannon, the War Room posse and the War Room show is never going away. | ||
| But the War Room movement, the MAGA movement, the Donald Trump movement must express their voices, must do what Cori and Anna are talking about. | ||
| If we want a select committee, Yes, we've got the warriors to run the select committee and do the work. | ||
| But we need you to call the Speaker's office, and no harassing, call the Speaker's office and tell them that is what you as Americans who sent these elected leaders there want. | ||
| So get on the horns today, get emailing, call every congressman and woman you know, call the Speaker's office and demand a select committee to do the investigation that this brave warrior just outlined. | ||
| And to flip the script a little, because I don't want it to just be all about, unfortunately, the assassination attempt, I did see you. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Which by the way, what a way to spend my 44th birthday. | |
| And I can tell you from my CNN Fox hits where I'm starting to uncover this, people are already starting to try and attack my character and attack me. | ||
| But here's the best part about it. | ||
| I don't care. | ||
| I would rather protect this republic than protect my seat. | ||
| Not protect my seat, but sacrifice this republic. | ||
| And you know what? | ||
|
unidentified
|
We're from the greatest state in the world. | |
| Florida. | ||
|
unidentified
|
There we go. | |
| Florida's got a deep bench. | ||
| So I did see you in a pretty cool shot last night, I'm not gonna lie. | ||
| You might have been behind our favorite president and our next vice president. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What an honor. | |
| You gotta tell us, what was that like man? | ||
| How cool was that? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Look, what an honor. | |
| And how do I get a ticket? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Trust me, you've been front row and center seat many times, and we need you back there. | |
| But I'll tell you right now, what an honor to be able to sit with the president, to be able to talk about a time when it was about security. | ||
| What great and strong speeches in that night, not just about unification, but the real position of what the state of the... | ||
| I feel that our RNC is more of the actual State of the Union than what you have with the hair-sniffing, ice-cream-eating, 8-to-4 working current person who's sitting in the elderly home on a 1600. | ||
| 8-to-4, that's generous. | ||
| Well, I was being nice, but three of those hours is in the basement taking naps. | ||
| But look, in all seriousness, what an honor to be able to just sit there behind the President after such a pivotal and instrumental point. | ||
| And to be able to go ahead and watch people who opposed him now join in unifying our party. | ||
| The one thing that should bring us together is our desire and love of nation. | ||
| And I think that when you look at what almost took place, when you drive by Arlington International Cemetery, you should say, do I live my life in a way that is worthy of the sacrifices made by so many? | ||
| And then look to the person who's actually going to be able to provide and preserve that. | ||
| And so I'm very happy and I was very blessed to be able to sit there with President Trump and future Vice President Vance. | ||
| Were they in their typical selfless ways? | ||
| Were they comedic to you in any personal way? | ||
|
unidentified
|
The president's always been so, so kind to me. | |
| Anytime I've texted him, he's always been great to respond. | ||
| A couple times I've called and he goes, Corey, I'm on the ninth hole. | ||
| What exactly are you needing? | ||
| But he answered his phone, right? | ||
| And so I've always been blessed and, you know, look, this is a man who didn't need to be on that stage. | ||
| This is a man whose children have been attacked and ridiculed and lawfare used against him. | ||
| This is a man who told us long ago, it's not about me, it's about you and I'm just in the way. | ||
| And they've done everything to remove him to include what just happened in this horrific incident. | ||
| I think the American people, when he stood up in the iconic way, not in fear, but in defiance, and put his fist in the air to let the American people know that we're going to fight, fight, fight. | ||
| Let me just tell you, that was fighting for the American people. | ||
| That's fighting for our constitutionality. | ||
| That's fighting for this republic to be able to be the strongest and be the world leader once again where our adversaries fear us and our allies trust us. | ||
| That's the economy. | ||
| That's the strength. | ||
| That's the security. | ||
| And that's the life. | ||
| that American exceptionalism and what President Trump brings to the table. | ||
| We've had a number of badass presidents in our history, Abraham Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, | ||
| but I gotta say Donald Trump is the most badass of all of them. I mean that, that, and I've said | ||
| this in a different context because I worked with President Nixon during the last years of his life, | ||
| I knew Ronald Reagan. Donald Trump is the best instinctual leader in | ||
|
unidentified
|
Instinctual leader we have ever had, and you saw that instinct after he... He saved his own life, by the way, and I want to clarify it. | |
| The president did exactly what you would do in any tactical situation, and understands where he kept his head and kept calm, because he did exactly what you should have done. | ||
| You minimize your silhouette when you're taking fire, and you go ahead and wait until the mitigating measures are taken, and then you move. | ||
| Let's put this badass and that badass and those instincts back in. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Vannon. | ||
| Welcome back to the War Room live from the RNC, filling in for the great, the legend, | ||
| Of course, we're on the couch with the amazing Monica Crowley, and we'll be joined by Mike Lindell just shortly here. | ||
| What a show we have had today. | ||
| What a barn burner of a lineup. | ||
| What a call to action we need from the War Room posse. | ||
| The War Room posse has literally changed this constitutional republic for the better, behind Stephen K. Bannon's brave leadership and Rav's display of courage to put the truth out there. | ||
| So, help us And get your voices out there. | ||
| Start calling those congressmen and women. | ||
| Start calling the Speaker's office and start getting action in action. | ||
| And I have a favor to ask. | ||
| Why don't you go online and order a copy of Government Gangsters and mail it to every Democrat in the House of Representatives. | ||
| In fact, mail it to every Rhino in the House of Representatives. | ||
| Not to their houses. | ||
| We don't want to dox them. | ||
| Mail it to their public offices. | ||
| Go to governmentgangsters.com or Amazon and get it. | ||
| So you're prepared for the global release of the film Government Gangsters, which Stephen K. Bannon made With me, right before he walked into prison as a political prisoner, go to warroom.film, warroom.film, to get your pre-order copy today, so tomorrow you can personally own your own copy. | ||
| And if you happen to be at the RNC, Thursday, tomorrow, 2 p.m., Miller High Life Theater, the best film of the year is debuting for free. | ||
| Come to the theater, doors open at 2, Miller High Life, and go to warroom.film to get your copy and to watch the trailer. | ||
| Monica, it has been absolutely spectacular to sit on the couch with you. | ||
| We literally didn't plan one thing, and I couldn't have planned it to go any better. | ||
| If you had a highlight to take away from today, what would it be? | ||
| Oh, well, there were so many highlights. | ||
| I mean, we had that incredible conversation about the deep state, and I shared a story that I've never shared publicly about my own experience. | ||
| With the deep state all the American people need to know what we're up against here that there is a severe enemy within It is evil. | ||
| This is spiritual battle and Mike we could talk about this too But the enemy is within and while we face a lot of external enemies like the CCP the Iranian regime and so on to me the most existential threat is the one within and It's the weaponization of government and these evil, shadowy, unaccountable, unelected operatives moving within our own government, targeting the American people in the most vicious, evil kinds of ways. | ||
| So that conversation to me, plus Anna Paulina Luna talking about Merrick Garland, inherent contempt, and the undermining from within on our own side, which is even more despicable than the undermining on the left. | ||
| Because the left, they'll tell you they hate you, that they want to torpedo your agenda. | ||
| But when it's coming from your own side and it's so dishonest, that's really despicable. | ||
| Can I just tell you how awesome this is? | ||
| None of this was scripted. | ||
| She didn't know I was going to ask her that. | ||
| That takes true talent and skills. | ||
| So you have to go to the Monica Crowley Show and download her podcast every single freaking day. | ||
| Because she's going to continue dropping this sort of knowledge on America. | ||
| Exposing the deep state, exposing the two-tier system of justice, and thankfully we have a warrior who has survived the persecutions of the deep state, of the two-tier system of justice in Mike Liddell. | ||
| He does not bend the knee, he supports President Trump infinitely, and he never, never stops. | ||
| My friend, besides sleeping on a MyPillow, how do you do it? | ||
| On a MyPillow topper! | ||
| Yeah, MyPillow topper, our new topper. | ||
| You know, to getting through it, it's just my faith in God. | ||
| I've got to give it all to Him. | ||
| We were the most attacked company in history, in history. | ||
| MyPillow, an employee-owned company, it's just been absolutely shameful. | ||
| And they seem to turn it up every day. | ||
| But it's because of the War Room Posse, their support. | ||
| They've been our biggest supporters to getting through this. | ||
| Even my employees talk about it. | ||
| It's a win-win-win when we come out with the specials. | ||
| You get the best sleep of your life, the best products ever, and you're supporting the War Room. | ||
| I told Steve when he went in, I said, we're going to have a political prisoner special. | ||
| And he said, Mike, I want you to set records. | ||
| So the posse's been doing it. | ||
| And we've got a new product, just came out, and the War Room posse's had it available to them for a couple days. | ||
| As you know, you have the MyPillow top. | ||
| I do, and I love it! | ||
| We just developed the most affordable Best Topper in history. | ||
| It's $199.99 at the Warham Posse for $99.98 for the Queen, $119.98 for the King. | ||
| Have you ever heard a price like that? | ||
| No, and it's worth every penny. | ||
| It's amazing. | ||
| It's the MyPillow patented foam, and then just on the Queen alone, we developed this with 14,000 comfort supports. | ||
| Individual comfort supports. | ||
| The King has 17,000. | ||
| So there's a lot of technology that went into it. | ||
| But if you go to the War Room Square on MyPillow.com, all the specials that go anywhere, we've left them all up for the War Room. | ||
| One is that MyPillow, the original MyPillow Premium, we've sold over 83 million now as of last week. | ||
| So, the War Room Posse has been a big part of that. | ||
| $19.98 for the Queen, King-sized $5 more, and you guys have been such a great support. | ||
| Call the operators. | ||
| They're supporting these moms and dads that work from home. | ||
| The IRS has attacked them, trying to say they couldn't work from home. | ||
| I love these numbers. | ||
| $83 million is astonishing. | ||
| It's about the same number of people that voted for Donald Trump. | ||
| That's exactly right! | ||
| So, my challenge to the War Room Posse is, I need that number to be 100 million people. | ||
| 100 million votes. | ||
| And so we gotta support Mike Lindell. | ||
| Monica, in closing, we've got about a minute here. | ||
| This has been a blast. | ||
| This has been so much fun. | ||
| They can't pay us enough to do this. | ||
| And they don't pay us. | ||
| But thanks so much. | ||
| Monica's going to take us down. | ||
| But I just want to reiterate, go to warroom.film, warroom.film, Government Gangsters, the movie, debuting tomorrow here. | ||
| Pre-order online right now and send a copy of Government Gangsters, the book, to every Democrat on Capitol Hill. | ||
| Monica, what do you say? | ||
| I know you're hosting tomorrow. | ||
| I am. | ||
| I'll be here. | ||
| You might have a special guest who might be a former political prisoner. | ||
| I can't wait for that. | ||
| I will be right back here tomorrow morning, 10 a.m. | ||
| Eastern Time on The War Room. | ||
| I'll miss you. | ||
| Hopefully you can spin through. | ||
| You too, Mike. | ||
| It's so good to see my good friend, Mike Lindell. | ||
| And it's been such a blessing to be in this chair for Steve. | ||
| Look, I think We are at a very perilous moment in our history. | ||
| This is spiritual warfare as well as political warfare and we need every good person on the ramparts and that's why we're here in the war room and this is why we fight every day. | ||
