War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | |
| Welcome to The War Room. | ||
| It's Natalie G. Winters hosting today, Friday, August 9th in the year of our Lord 2024. | ||
| I think this show may go down in the history of War Room as one of the most fiery and spicy shows we've ever done. | ||
| We'll be joined by Jon Eastman, Tina Peters, and Darren Beattie. | ||
| How's that for a show? | ||
| Talking all things election fraud, 2024 election. | ||
| Assuming we're operating under fair pretenses, which we know we're not, how we actually engage and go after the Harris-Waltz campaign. | ||
| I think I see Darren up. | ||
| I think he's ready to go. | ||
| Darren, you guys have a great new piece up at Revolver that sort of walks through what you think the approach should be taking it to the Harris campaign. | ||
| Why don't you walk the audience through that? | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| Great to be here with you as always at the elite five o'clock hour, and we actually have Tremendous amount of content for the audience today. | ||
| We have not one but two fresh off the press pieces at revolver.news. | ||
| One, which you mentioned, is sort of a bucket of cold water, so to speak, pushing it back against any kind of notion that 2024 is going to be a landslide, this or that. | ||
| I think by now we've all caught on to the reality that as ridiculous as it is, the Harris-Waltz Uh, campaign and ticket thanks to full court press support from the media, um, is going to be a very tight, very difficult, very hard fought race. | ||
| So the first order of business is to abandon any conception that this is going to be a great, easy landslide for our side, for the Trump advance ticket. | ||
| The piece goes into further detail, and this is why everyone needs to go into it and read it. | ||
| and analyzes a bit about why Kamala has the advantages she does and what those advantages are. | ||
| And one of the unspoken advantages is just how she was able to swoop in at the last minute and basically operate with a clean slate whereby anything good in the public's imagination is going to be associated with her. | ||
| She's going to take credit for anything good and anything bad, it's not going to be her. | ||
| It's Biden. | ||
| So she takes credit for the good and the blame goes to Biden. | ||
| And furthermore, she's in a position at the last minute to do something no traditional candidate could do. | ||
| Totally reinvent the ticket. | ||
| Totally flip flop on positions that Biden had as a candidate and as a president and reinvent them for herself to her own electoral advantage. | ||
| One small, arguably niche example that's still, I think, important and illustrative here is the stance on Bitcoin. | ||
| The Biden regime was extremely tough on Bitcoin, extremely tough on the crypto world, and that at least partially accounts for the unprecedented migration, as it were, political migration from many on the tech side to Trump. | ||
| Kamala's Doing a dramatic course correction here, reaching out to people in the crypto community and basically doing a 180 reversal on the policy that Biden had. | ||
| Biden couldn't have gotten away with doing it this late in the game. | ||
| Only this kind of bizarre situation where Kamala gets the best of both worlds can totally reinvent herself and the ticket at the last minute. | ||
| Can she do something like that? | ||
| She's doing something similar with the Israel-Palestine issue. | ||
| This idea of taking advantage of the blank slate, being able to reverse positions without really a flip flop because she's a different person, is an advantage that is really specially tailored to this narrow timeframe in which she's operating. | ||
| I think another characteristic, we saw some of this with Obama, but here we have it on steroids and with a different inflection, is she's anything and everything. | ||
| She's whatever you want her to be. | ||
| She's the tough, Prosecutor from way back, or she's the BLM supporting radical. | ||
| And the same thing goes with Waltz, actually. | ||
| It's interesting. | ||
| He's such a radical leftist, and yet his optics and presentation fill the function of what Joe Biden meant to fill for Obama, to assuage middle America, as it were, that things aren't going too radical. | ||
| So there's this really kind of whiplash effect whereby you have The old kind of folksy, but you know, if you look in his eyes, you can tell there's a creep factor there. | ||
| But the folksy kind of presentation that he has combined with the radical policy record is something that when you have full court press media support can actually be very effective because it's not as alarming to people. | ||
| It's you can fill in whatever you want. | ||
| Similarly with Kamala, what's her record on crime? | ||
| Is she a prosecutor? | ||
| Is she a BLM supporter? | ||
| And go down the whole list and you have the same effect. | ||
| And so this enables Kamala to do something that I think what's captured what a lot of people have observed is run an almost entirely vibes based campaign. | ||
| And the thing is a vibes based campaign can only last for so long until substance has to intervene. | ||
| But again, here, the timeline works to her advantage because it's just so unusual, usual, in fact, unprecedented for someone to be able to step in this late in the game. | ||
| And the media is hoping to carry this vibes based campaign across the finish line, given that we only have a couple of months left. | ||
| So the question here is, what can Trump do? | ||
| And we're going to have a follow up piece on a lot of the things that the Trump campaign needs to pay attention to. | ||
| But just one quick corollary based on the observations I just made. | ||
| Trump needs to seize any and every possible opportunity to force Kamala into unscripted moments. | ||
| The media is going to do full court press. | ||
| People have noticed she doesn't give any interviews. | ||
| She doesn't do anything. | ||
| She's hiding behind the veil of total and complete positive media coverage. | ||
| So whatever opportunities there are, these rare opportunities to force her into a position of Candidness, a position of an unscripted vulnerability that has to be seized upon. | ||
| And one obvious example of that would be a debate, maybe the only obvious example. | ||
| And we saw the power of putting an unworthy and unqualified candidate in an unscripted position. | ||
| We saw that in the last debate with Biden, which was game changing. | ||
| Now we might not see something that dramatic with Kamala, but I think it would go in the right direction. | ||
| So that is one small piece of advice that I think can be extrapolated into different contexts for how the Trump campaign should deal with these unusual comparative advantages that Kamala Walz's ticket has due to this peculiar timeline that she's been thrust into. | ||
| The polling is so interesting, particularly to that point on the economy, where you see obviously a huge chasm between Joe Biden and Trump when it comes to how they think they could handle the economy. | ||
| But it's basically 50-50, which may come as a complete shock to the War Room audience, but when you match up Harris v. Trump on how they think they would handle the economy, the sort of jujitsu where she can take credit for what she wants to and then pass off all the certain failures to Joe Biden. | ||
| But to kind of continue down this thread, Speaking of passing failures off, I guess, though, in this case to the FBI and the Secret Service, you guys have yet another exclusive up at Revolver, kind of continuing to drill down on the pipe bomb hoax, everything JAN6. | ||
| Why don't you walk the audience through that? | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| This is a bombshell piece developing story in this, you know, we've been on this pipe bomb thing for years and years now. | ||
| And in fact, I've always said this is one of the two smoking guns of the Fed's erection. | ||
| The other one being Ray Epps. | ||
| This is the Pipe Bomb one. | ||
| As it so happens, you know, the Pipe Bomb story directly implicates a number of people and institutions that have gained renewed attention and renewed significance in recent weeks and months. | ||
| And that is, of course, Kamala Harris and the Secret Service. | ||
| And sure enough, the Pipe Bomb hoax that, you know, Has long been one of the biggest scandals in the country is now the biggest scandal because Kamala Harris is not just anyone. | ||
| She's not even just a vice president. | ||
| She is the nominee for president in the 2024 race. | ||
| And of course, the Secret Service is under justified scrutiny. | ||
| I would frankly say not enough scrutiny. | ||
| It's interesting how they're trying to Memory hole, the whole attempted assassination, narrowly missing, you know, bullet narrowly missing by millimeters. | ||
| Guy gets on a roof. | ||
| No one knows how he did it. | ||
| Guy gets off shots. | ||
| They don't remove Trump from the stage. | ||
| All of these things. | ||
| It's amazing how, you know, they're basically disappeared from our national consciousness at this point, certainly from the approved national conversation. | ||
| Nonetheless, this thrusts the Secret Service into a certain spotlight. | ||
| But those who've been following our reporting on the pipe bomb know the Secret Service has been very politicized and very suspicious for a long time. | ||
| Now, the pipe bomb story has too many facets to cover here. | ||
| I'll only say that there is a long-sense suppressed Inspector General's report. | ||
| The Inspector General, believe it or not, actually kind of did a good job. | ||
| That's why they were working so hard to suppress the report. | ||
| They, in this case, being Mayorkas. | ||
| Of Open Borders fame. | ||
| Well, the report finally became public. | ||
| We, of course, had it before it was public and we published on it. | ||
| But now that it's public, we can move the conversation forward with reference to the direct language in the report. | ||
| And of course, there's been a media blackout on this, which on one hand, you would say, OK, of course, there's a blackout. | ||
| The media doesn't want to draw attention to the failures of the Secret Service. | ||
| Let alone all of these really dirty questions surrounding what January 6th actually was, being its fedsurrection. | ||
| On the other hand, you would think the media would kind of want to amplify this because it surrounds a near assassination of, in this case, Kamala Harris. | ||
| You would think they would be drawn to this, not only because the last three years they've been trying to shove down our throats the notion that January 6th was The worst domestic terror event. | ||
| This would seem to support that, given Kamala almost lost her life to this MAGA pipe bomb. | ||
| The report confirmed she came within 20 feet of it. | ||
| And yet the media doesn't want to say anything about it. | ||
| Even in light of this report, precious few have said anything. | ||
| The only people who've said anything, there's one piece in National Review, which is now kind of like, maybe, arguably the lowest status magazine around. | ||
| I don't even know how it's funded. | ||
| And so one of the lower status writers, they didn't even get a celebrated writer. | ||
| They got one of their low status intern types to do a complete mop up job piece on it. | ||
| That doesn't note anything interesting in the actual report, which is kind of remarkable. | ||
| So maybe the exception that proves the rule in terms of the media blackout, but the report confirms a number of things that we've been reporting for a while. | ||
| And it's really important. | ||
| Number one. | ||
| The Secret Service did, in fact, sweep that area prior to Kamala's arrival. | ||
| They had not one, but two canine units there. | ||
| And if you go to the piece at revolver.news and look at the photograph, you'll see just how conspicuous the pipe bomb was, such that it beggars belief that there could have been an entire Secret Service detail there with two canines Sweeping the parking garage and yet not 20 feet away they missed the pipe bomb lying right there out in the open. | ||
| They also confirmed that there was a Secret Service agent standing guard within 20 feet of the pipe bomb for five hours and he didn't see it. | ||
| I happen to be privy to surveillance footage of that area During this whole time, and there were periods where there were numerous law enforcement officials from multiple different agencies and Metro PD, Capitol Police, and so forth. | ||
| Not to mention the fact that this pipe bomb was allegedly planted the evening before. | ||
| And therefore sat in that position undiscovered for nearly 17 hours by anyone, including the secret police. | ||
| So the secret service. | ||
| And this is, of course, important because if they had discovered the pipe bomb in the morning, that would have led to heightened security that would have prevented the Fed's direction from unfolding the way it did. | ||
| Only because the pipe bomb was conveniently discovered right as the attack on the Capitol unfolded that they had this excuse that, oh, our resources were being diverted at the time because of the pipe bomb. | ||
| That's why Ray Epps was allowed to breach the West perimeter of the Capitol. | ||
| And real quick, we've got to bounce. | ||
| If people want to read the piece in full, follow you, where can they go to do that? | ||
| Biggest story, biggest scandal in the country unfolding as we speak. | ||
| Revolver.news. | ||
| Why is Kamala Harris not talking about the pipe bomb? | ||
| Why is the number one talking point about J6 what should be Kamala's most carefully guarded secret? | ||

Here's your host, Stephen K. | |
| Bann. | ||
| Welcome back to the War Room. | ||
| You guys all know President Trump was really one of the leading voices to I think call out what is the fake news, the mainstream media, the bias that goes on there. | ||
| But if you really look at his four years in office, I think he had the uncanny ability to do that with so many spheres of American life, whether it was the presidential debates, Institutions like the National Institutes of Health, but I think most importantly election administration or frankly lack thereof in this country, right? | ||
| You saw it in the 2020 election, which we of course maintain what's stolen here in the warm and we say that proudly and with evidence with the receipts, but this is a problem that obviously persists, right? | ||
| We saw it in the midterms to someone who has always stood in the breach on that particular issue, which I guess you say at least we know it's now happening. | ||
| The scope and scale of it is something that keeps so many Americans up at night. | ||
| I know it certainly keeps our next guest, John Eastman, up at night. | ||
| I've been so fortunate and blessed to be here at the Claremont Institute Lincoln Fellowship, having him lecture and teach all of us. | ||
| So I feel very spoiled. | ||
| So I wanted to share some of his expertise and knowledge with the War Room Posse, who you know loves you so much. | ||
| But John, we were talking yesterday a lot about, you know, as we barrel towards the 2024 election, You have the RNC wanting to get their, you know, 500 lawyers. | ||
| Seems like we're going to have, you know, poll watchers. | ||
| But your kind of assessment, the State of the Union through the lens of where we stand on election integrity ahead of November? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, I think we've got a lot of work to do. | |
| You know, they're playing from the same playbook again. | ||
| They're in advance of the election, altering the rules. | ||
| The Democrat-controlled Minnesota legislature just passed a rule contrary to their state constitution that would allow felons to vote before their civil rights are restored. | ||
| The constitution in Minnesota makes that explicitly unconstitutional. | ||
| And there was a lawsuit brought in just last week. | ||
| The Minnesota Supreme Court dismissed the lawsuit saying the people that brought it, voters, didn't have any standing. | ||
| Over in Wisconsin, Two years ago, the use of these drop boxes and human drop boxes that so significantly affected the outcome of the election in Wisconsin in 2020 were held to be illegal. | ||
| But earlier last month, the Wisconsin Supreme Court, with a one person change of personnel, reversed course and said it's illegal, therefore opening the door for these illegal drop boxes again. | ||
| So we see this law maneuvering going on ahead of time to loosen the rules, to alter the rules of the game before we get to the election. | ||
| And so the RNC's efforts to identify hundreds of lawyers to weigh in on those things is a step in the right direction. | ||
| And more importantly, millions of people that are just immensely frustrated with what they saw with their own eyes in 2020 are stepping up to become poll observers. | ||
| I've been encouraging people not just to become poll observers or challengers, but to actually apply to be poll workers. | ||
| So that you're not observing the illegal conduct and trying to get lawyers to do something about it, but you're sitting in the chair making sure that the statutes are faithfully followed in the conduct of that vote counting process. | ||
| So become poll workers. | ||
| And in many states there are bipartisan requirements that there have to be, uh, you know, unbiased people, bipartisan teams in the poll workers. | ||
| You got to have a balance that doesn't happen a lot of times. | ||
| And they falsely claim it's because Republicans don't apply. | ||
| Um, but what we've got evidence that in fact, Republicans are applying and they get slow walked and then they told, well, we've already filled all the slots. | ||
| So people need to get on that early. | ||
| They need to figure out what their local rules are in their state and apply to be poll workers. | ||
| So that's the kind of what, you know, the retail efforts to prevent that kind of obvious are out in the open fraud. | ||
| But what I think we're falling short on is the black box fraud, the risk of hacking in the machine equipment that has been documented by experts on both sides of the political aisle over the years. | ||
| uh... and and stunningly put forward in evidence and court rulings down in georgia in a case called curling versus raffensperger uh... that that that these machines are subject to security breaches and hacking that can affect the outcome of elections alter the results of elections and then hide the trail of what's been done uh... and i don't think we're doing nearly enough to try and counteract that risk to our the integrity of our election systems And anybody that doesn't think this is a problem needs to look at the court rulings in the Kerling v. Raffensperger case. | ||
| They need to look at the evidence that's been assembled as a result of discovery that existed in the Garland-Favarito v. Raffensperger case, another one down in Georgia. | ||
| They need to look at the three expert reports that were done in Mesa County, Colorado, after Tina Peters, the clerk of Mesa County, made a mirror image of the computer software Before it was updated after the 2020 election, which destroyed all the election data in violation of federal law, they need to look at those expert reports. | ||
| They're stunning. | ||
| Unfortunately, Tina Peters is on her heels and going through a criminal prosecution right now in Georgia for having made that electronic copy and done a forensic audit on the election data, which is what I thought her job was as the county clerk. | ||
| Uh, to make sure that her election had not been manipulated, uh, or, or, or, uh, maneuvered with. | ||
| So that's the kind of things that people on our side need to be addressing and not running afraid of it. | ||
| And I don't see that kind of effort in place. | ||
| And of course, you know, you can do all you want with protecting signature verification and, uh, that kind of stuff on, on election day and in the, in the run up to the election. | ||
| But if you haven't addressed this problem at all. | ||
| Um, you know, I don't think we'll have confidence that they won't try and successfully steal the election again. | ||
| I think there's a lot of uproar kind of among the war room posse to the point where there doesn't seem to be a lot of these efforts in place when you see things so, you know, clear as day, whether it's the Zuckerberg organizations like CTCL. | ||
| Yeah, sure. | ||
| They may be rebranding, but they're doing what they always do, right? | ||
| giving money to what is it, 98.7% Democrat heavy districts, right? | ||
| They operate under the pretense of bipartisan, nonpartisan. | ||
| The only thing that I think it's scarier when you hear bipartisan is when it's bipartisan | ||
| immigration reform. | ||
| But when you see this lack of legal pushback on what, to me, to the audience, seems to | ||
| be something, like I said, clear as day fraud, is this because they have waged systemic campaigns, | ||
| much like you've been on the receiving end of, to intimidate lawyers to not stand up | ||
| Where is the issue? | ||
| Where is the shortcoming where we don't see these efforts materializing? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, I mean, this stuff is tough to assemble and to put a case on and to gather the evidence for it. | |
| And it really requires a great deal of resources. | ||
| And it's the kind of resources that exist in the major international law firms. | ||
| You know, if you've got to throw 30 bodies into a discovery process and hire technical experts, you've got to have a pretty big infrastructure to be able to do that. | ||
| And all of the major law firms have either become woke and won't touch this stuff because they're ideologically predisposed the opposite direction, or even if they have practice groups within their firm that wants to take this on, the firms are saying no. | ||
| In part because of the extraordinary assaults on anybody that will dare to take up these election challenges. | ||
| And, you know, the 65 Project has made very clear their goal is not just to disbar all the lawyers who were involved in the election challenges in 2020, but to make them so toxic in their firms and their communities that nobody will ever want to take these kind of cases on again. | ||
| That's the game plan at the moment. | ||
| And it's one of the reasons why they have so viciously and extensively targeted people like me. | ||
| Because if they can prevent me from being involved and get my scalp and get my bar license and maybe even put me in prison, I mean, think about the message that sends to any other young up-and-coming lawyer who would want to help with some of these election challenges. | ||
| You know, you're going to be confronted with, do I put myself, my finances, my family, my security at risk in order to take on these election challenges or do I pretend there's nothing going on there and go back to my regular commercial practice? | ||
| And, you know, we need more people to stand up to that. | ||
| And it's these technical, highly technical things that I don't think are getting adequate enough assessment. | ||
| People are afraid of it. | ||
| And I, you know, this, I mean, that means it's not going to be, you know, it's not going to receive the scrutiny that it needs to prevent it happening in 2024. | ||
| And just curious, your perspective. | ||
| When it comes to your case, you said they may be pursuing prison time. | ||
| I know you were giving us a brief update yesterday, but where do you stand on that? | ||
|
unidentified
|
So, we're waiting on rulings on motions to dismiss First Amendment grounds, federal preemption grounds, and those things in Georgia. | |
| Those decisions, the judge is still working on, even though the case has been stayed for a number of my co-defendants pending resolution of the disqualification of the To put it politely, ethically challenged DA in Fulton County, Vonnie Willis. | ||
| So that's where that's at. | ||
| We're waiting for rulings on those motions to dismiss. | ||
| In Arizona, it's a very interesting thing. | ||
| Arizona became the first state in the country to add criminal prosecutions to its anti-slap statute. | ||
| And for the audience that probably doesn't know what that is, so over time, Say a major developer would want to put a project in and people would show up at the Planning Commission and complain about it. | ||
| And so some developers, unscrupulous, would sue those people for defamation claims or whatever to try and silence them from public participation, from participating in the Planning Commission process. | ||
| And states like California passed what were called anti-SLAPP statutes. | ||
| That's strategic litigation against public participation that these suits were. | ||
| And California passed an anti-slap statute, which allowed the defendant in these type of cases to bring a motion to dismiss the case on the front end and to force the people that brought these cases merely to sign and silence them in the exercise of their First Amendment rights to require them to pay their attorney's fees. | ||
| So Arizona added criminal prosecutions to its anti-slap statute, and we immediately filed an anti-slap motion in our case there. | ||
| It was the first one out of the box to do so. | ||
| And that motion will be heard on August 26th in Phoenix. | ||
| And very interestingly, two weeks ago, the leadership of the Arizona legislature... And John, I'm gonna hold you there because we have to jump to break. | ||
| We won't bury the lead. | ||
| We'll use it as a teaser to keep you. | ||
| We'll be back in 90 seconds. | ||
| Warren Post will also be joined by Philip Patricks. | ||
| In the meantime, you can go to Birchgold.com slash Bannon or check out Public Square to support companies that won't cancel you for daring to question the results of the 2020 election, the forthcoming 2024 election, and support true American patriots and heroes, much like John Eastman, Stephen K. Bannon, Peter Navarro. | ||
| We'll be back after this break with John Eastman and Tina Peters later in the show. | ||

|
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bann. | |
| Welcome back to the War Room, honored to be joined by a true hero and a patriot, | ||
| not just on issues of election integrity, but frankly, everything the one and only John Eastman. | ||
| Now, Jon, if you want to pick up where you left off before we had to jump for the break, then I have some other questions for you. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So this is on the anti-slap motion that we filed in Arizona. | |
| And significantly, about two weeks ago, the leaders of the Arizona legislature filed an amicus brief saying, look, this isn't just the kind of case that we passed this statute for. | ||
| This is the very case we feared would be brought that we brought this statute for. | ||
| So that's pretty significant. | ||
| We hope the judge will take that very seriously and recognize that this case was brought. | ||
| to deter the exercise of people's First Amendment rights and rights of free speech and association, but also the right to petition the government for redress of grievances, which is, you know, there were grievances of plenty in the 2020 election and people were lobbying their legislators and their elected officials to try and do some investigations to get to the bottom of what happened rather than shuffling it all under the rug. | ||
| That's about as classic a right to petition the government for redress of grievances as it comes. | ||
| And as we put in our opening brief, the Attorney General campaigned on preventing people from engaging in that kind of speech and right to petition and threatened to criminally prosecute them if she got elected. | ||
| Well, this is this is exactly what this statute was designed to prevent. | ||
| So hopefully, hopefully we'll have a very interesting hearing on August 26. | ||
| First time I think anything like this has ever been brought anywhere in the country because it's a new statute, a new application. | ||
| of those long-standing anti-slap statutes and we look forward to seeing what the judge is going to | ||
| do with it. And John, I'm just curious to get your thoughts on these sort of other aspects of election | ||
| interference, election influence. Obviously you're talking about, you know, ballots themselves, but | ||
| we know they obviously use the pretext of a pandemic to sort of lay the groundwork, the | ||
| justification. Though I always love when you read the CDC, they actually said even if you had COVID | ||
| you could still go vote in person. | ||
| You just needed to wear a mask, but nonetheless, I guess you need massive vote by mail. | ||
| But when you see things like the assassination attempt of President Donald J. Trump, this rehyping of the bird flu narrative, the WHO saying we need to prep better for pandemics already, where do you sort of see them going with the kind of cultural, political, and social context and setting that they want to artificially create to allow for whether it's universal vote by mail, Various ways that they can kind of steal the election. | ||
| Where do you think they're, in your estimation, kind of heading with that side of the coin? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, the vote by mail, which is the most unsecure method of voting we have. | |
| I mean, there's a reason the bipartisan commission on the 2000 election that was headed by former Democrat President Jimmy Carter and former Republican Secretary of State James Baker. | ||
| And they said, look, guys, we got this thing, this vote by mail Absolutely is a problem. | ||
| None of the traditional checks that were in place in your local precinct, like the people running the table recognize you as one of their neighbors. | ||
| None of those checks are there if you vote by mail. | ||
| And when you recognize the amount of deadwood on the voter rolls, this is people that have died, that have long since moved or what have you. | ||
| And these ballots are mailed to them. | ||
| Or ballot applications are mailed to them. | ||
| And then they, you know, they kind of sit on the overflow mail table at large apartment buildings and somebody comes and collects them. | ||
| I've been told that those ballots are, you know, people give $10 a ballot for folks to go collect those up. | ||
| And then they get voted. | ||
| And we've got evidence that they're being voted anyway, even though not by the people they're addressed to. | ||
| So all of these things are a huge invitation for fraud. | ||
| And when we are in such a polarized political world as we are in, and people are spending hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars in order to affect the outcome of the election, the notion that one side is not actually going to engage in criminal conduct to try and steal the election is laughable. | ||
| Of course they're going to. | ||
| And the question is, why are we not doing more to stop it? | ||
| Because, you know, this goes right to the heart of who we are as a democratic republic form of government. | ||
| It's right there in the Declaration of Independence. | ||
| The legitimacy of the government is based on the consent of the governed. | ||
| We give that consent through elections that are free and fair. | ||
| And if they're not, we cease to be citizens in a Republican form of government and we become subjects of a government that has no checks on it and will become increasingly tyrannical. | ||
| I mean, these are the stakes and I don't think we are putting enough effort into preventing it from happening again. | ||
| And link that critique to the broader narrative that you hear on MSNBC, CNN, every second of every day, 24-7, 25-8, frankly, if you ask me, but of our democracy, our democracy. | ||
| Is it just projection? | ||
|
unidentified
|
It is projection. | |
| I mean, the notion that our democracy is being undermined by people that insist on free and fair elections and being supported by folks who are putting up as nominees Somebody who never won a single primary election or obtained a single delegate vote. | ||
| And I've noticed this trend over the last couple of election cycles. | ||
| I'm involved in litigation in Colorado right now, challenging the open primary. | ||
| And one of the issues is does unaffiliated voters affect the outcome of elections? | ||
| And what we've seen is a shift in the number of unaffiliated voters voting in the Republican election, primary elections rather than Democrat. | ||
| And you dig down and you try and figure out why. | ||
| It's because the Democrats aren't having contested primary elections. | ||
| They're selecting their nominees in the back room, putting them on the ballot to go through this patina or this pretext that we had an election, but there was only one person on the ballot. | ||
| And they've done now the same thing in the presidential election. | ||
| So the folks that claim to be defending our democracy, what's the old line in Prince's Bride? | ||
| I think they mean something different than what that word really means. | ||
| And how do you think, you know, say President Trump does return to the White House if we're able to surpass and surmount all the tricks that they have up their sleeves? | ||
| When it comes to solving the issue of election administration here in the United States, how do you see that path? | ||
| Which again, not that we're getting ahead of ourselves here, but what are the fundamental changes that you think need to happen in this country when it comes to elections? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, look. | |
| The IRS has long realized that they can't enforce the law against every single taxpayer. | ||
| It's too overwhelming. | ||
| And so what they do right before tax deadline is they announce a couple of high-profile criminal prosecutions against tax evaders and to scare everybody else into voluntary compliance with the tax laws. | ||
| That's a good thing. | ||
| I don't think we're doing that on the election front. | ||
| And so look, let me give you an example. | ||
| There is well documented violations of election law by force and intimidation of poll watchers in the TCF center in Detroit. | ||
| It's documented with sworn affidavits and it's video and nobody's been prosecuted. | ||
| You need to bring some high profile prosecutions and put people in prison for that kind of conduct in order to send a message to others. | ||
| That if you do this as well in the next election, you may be target, uh, the subject of a criminal prosecution as well. | ||
| And I think we need to revamp the department of justice election and Terry, I mean, these are, they're, they're violations of state law, but in the context of a presidential election, they are interfering with federal elections, which means it's subject to the enforcement by the department of justice and by the U S attorneys in that state. | ||
| And I think those things need to be vigorously prosecuted in a very public and transparent way. | ||
| so that it sends a message. | ||
| If you're going to be a mule illegally harvesting ballots in Georgia or Pennsylvania, you're going to be at risk of a very long prison sentence for doing that. | ||
| And until we start doing that more vigorously and more openly, I think people are going to feel like there's no downside for engaging in this illegal conduct and they'll continue to do it. | ||
| Look, outside of Detroit's counting center, they had a warehouse of excess ballots. | ||
| And they called the warehouse the Chicago warehouse. | ||
| I mean, it doesn't get more brazen than that, that they are intent on stealing the election if that becomes necessary, because Chicago is the most infamous election fraud place in the country. | ||
| It was notorious for that for years and years and years. | ||
| And so to nickname their warehouse of excess ballots as the Chicago warehouse, they're telling us what they're doing on the front end. | ||
| And our guys are just sitting on the sidelines, you know, oh, well, that's just the way it goes. | ||
| No, you've got to prosecute these people criminally for engaging that kind of illegal conduct. | ||
| And what you've got to then quit doing is prosecuting people who are shining a light on it, which is the turnaround that we have seen. | ||
| I mean, it's just upside down. | ||
| John, if people want to follow you, support you, support the Claremont Institute, where can they go to do all that? | ||
| Where are you most accessible? | ||

So, I would encourage people to go to my Legal Defense Fund site, because at the moment, that's where I'm posting great articles about what we're confronting. | |
| It's givesendgo.com slash Eastman. | ||
| And people can send donations there to help with our Legal Defense Funds. | ||
| We've spent millions already, and looking at another couple million probably. | ||
| They can send prayers. | ||
| My wife and I read them. | ||
| They're heartwarming. | ||
| But they can also arm themselves with information that we post there. | ||
| And I would encourage people to pull up Update 43 on that website because I've got there linked articles that my children wrote defending their dad and that my wife wrote describing what we're going through and I think people will get a very good sense of what's going on by reading those articles. | ||
| GiveSendGo.com slash Eastman. | ||
| The audience, they love you as they should. | ||
| You're a true hero and patriot. | ||
| I'm always honored to have you on and to have met you in person. | ||
| This week, so thank you so much for joining. | ||

It's been a forced march, but I hope you're finding the program productive. | |
| Of course, of course. | ||
| Thank you so much, John. | ||
| War Room Posse, as you guys always know, we love Birchgold. | ||
| Here on the War Room, it's birchgold.com slash Bannon. | ||
| We're joined at the end of a rather tumultuous week. | ||
| Started out this Monday show with the Kamala crash. | ||
| I don't know what iteration of the crash we're in right now, but who better to bring on than the one and only Philip Patrick. | ||
| Philip, why don't you walk us through sort of your analysis of what happened this week with the economy? | ||
| Yeah, it's been it's been an interesting week, to say the least. | ||
| I think the Biden administration's Goldilocks narrative was was finally overrun by by angry bears. | ||
| And forgive me if that sounds glib, but it's essentially true. | ||
| Monday, we saw a massive wave of risk aversion sweep the globe. | ||
| I think since about mid-2022, investors have been treating bad economic news as good news, right? | ||
| Hoping that it would be the catalyst for the Fed to cut interest rates and come and save the economy. | ||
| But I think this week they finally realized that bad economic news really isn't good. | ||
| But in terms of the catalyst, there were a few things driving the Kamala crash. | ||
| First of all, June job numbers came in 62 percent below expectations. | ||
| Now, to be clear, not my expectations, but mainstream CNN economists, the official unemployment rate has tipped up now to over 4.3 percent. | ||
| Which is the highest rate since October of 2021. | ||
| Secondly, the unemployment report triggered a closely watched economic indicator called the Sam rule, which is accurately predicted the last 11 recessions without one false positive in that time period. | ||
| In other words, the U.S. | ||
| economy is either already in or likely on the brink of a recession. | ||
| Thirdly, and this one really came out of left field, the Bank of Japan raised interest rates from zero to a quarter of a percent. | ||
| And that sparked a crisis in what's called the yen carry trade, forcing what looked like margin calls on a number of very highly leveraged hedge funds. | ||
| And I think the combination of all of these factors have forced investors to realize that they've got a lot more to lose than gain in the markets right now. | ||
| And they responded accordingly. | ||
| And Phillip, I'll hold you through the break. | ||
| Warren Post, you guys know we love Birch Gold by supporting our sponsors. | ||
| You not only help support this show, but you get truly financial advice that I don't think you get anywhere else. | ||
| You can always get the latest installment of the End of the Dollar Empire. | ||
| And while you're at it, make sure to check out Patriot Mobile, too. | ||
| That's PatriotMobile.com slash Bannon. | ||
| We're honored to be supported here in the War Room by companies that, like I always say, don't hate you and won't cancel you for being involved and being engaged. | ||
| For supporting patriots like Jon Eastman, Stephen K Bannon and Peter Navarro. | ||
| We had some trouble tracking down Tina Peters, as you all know. | ||
| She's a little busy right now, but maybe we'll get her for the 6 p.m. | ||
| and I will be hosting the 6 p.m. | ||

show after this as well. | |
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bamm. | ||
| Welcome back to the War Room. | ||
| We're still joined by Philip Patrick. | ||
| You guys know we're pretty good at predictions here in the War Room, I would say, though. | ||
| We don't always want to be vindicated with a lot of the predictions we have, whether it's the origins of COVID or election fraud. | ||
| But Philip Patrick, you've similarly been ahead of the curve on all things economic and fiscal policy, stock and bond markets. | ||
| So we won't hold you to it. | ||
| But keeping in line with War Room's track record on typically being right, what does the audience need to know about what you kind of see as projections going forward? | ||
| Look, I think we're in we're in a very tough position. | ||
| What we've seen with market volatility, I think, is going to be the catalyst for the Fed now to lower interest rates, likely before the election, probably in September. | ||
| The problem that we're going to have is, of course, inflation, right? | ||
| We've got to remember this massive government spending under the Biden administration. | ||
| Seven point three trillion dollars coupled with the lowering of interest rates. | ||
| I think what we risk is to see inflation spiral out of control. We've been saying | ||
| it for a while but we really are stuck between a rock and a hard place, right? The Fed have a | ||
| choice. If you want to rescue the markets, we're going to see the price of goods and services go up. | ||
| The alternative is you stand firm, you combat inflation, but we see a big market crash. | ||
| So, you know, like I said, for a long time, I don't think there's a soft landing. | ||
| And I think people just need to be preemptive and try and prepare a little. | ||
| Look at what central banks around the world are doing. | ||
| They're holding U.S. | ||
| dollars. | ||
| They're hedging that exposure with gold. | ||
| We have Goldman Sachs coming out recently saying that long positions in gold now offer portfolios the greatest hedging value across all asset classes. | ||
| You know, I think it's just the time to be preemptive and make sure we're ready to weather the storm. | ||
| And in terms of Birch Gold, what you guys have going on there, how do you think that that helps the audience, you know, navigate that rather perilous storm? | ||
| Look, for us, what's so important, which is why, you know, the ability to come on the show and try and educate people is so important to us. | ||
| But, you know, I feel like education is key and people understanding the issues. | ||
| I think the solutions will start to present themselves. | ||
| So at Birch, the most important thing for us is keeping people informed. | ||
| That's why we have a free information guide. | ||
| That's why we have, you know, the series, The End of the Dollar Empire, that Steve wrote, really to help build people's knowledge and understanding. | ||
| Because with that, like I said, comes solutions. | ||
| So for us at Birch, the aim is, as it is for The War Room, to educate the American people through education. | ||
| I think we start to make the right decisions. | ||
| And it's key. | ||
| And Philip, if people want to talk to you, get the books, there's so many ways that they can reach you, hit the audience with where they can go to do that. | ||
| Of course. | ||
| So for free information kit, for access to the End of the Dollar Empire series, all the viewers have to do is to go to birchgold.com forward slash Bannon. | ||
| Again, birchgold.com forward slash Bannon. | ||
| That'll get them access to free information, a lot of it. | ||
| And then from there, if they want to take a step, there's a lot of people like myself that are there to help educate people and guide them through the process. | ||
| So it starts with birchgold.com forward slash Bannon. | ||
| Philip Patrick, as always, thank you for joining us in the War Room. | ||
| Thank you, Natalie. | ||
| Shortly bringing on our next guest, but just wanted to give you guys another little scoop we have up for War Room. | ||
| You guys may know the company Smartmatic. | ||
| They created a kind of a shady offshoot back in 2014, SGO, and it was an investment group where they would support democracy initiatives and election turnout drives, all euphemisms for, I'd say, anti-democracy efforts. | ||
| But just a fun fact, a founding member of their board of advisors was the global CEO of DLA Piper, the law firm where Kamala Harris's husband worked for a very, very long time. | ||
| No conspiracies, no coincidences. | ||
| Our next guest, Mike Lindell, is very well versed in the conspiracies and coincidences that plague America's elections. | ||
| Mike, I hear you have some thoughts on what's going down currently in Georgia when it comes to the election system there. | ||
| Well, it's vindication, vindication, vindication. | ||
| I mean, it's happening in Georgia. | ||
| Smartmatic, they just got charged for bribery cases over in the Philippines in another election. | ||
| But Georgia, it's the tip of the spear. | ||
| I mean, you've got all this stuff now uncovered and it's public now. | ||
| It's been what I've been saying for three and a half years. | ||
| You've got their crooked Secretary of State there down there, Brad Rasenberger, and I hope he ends up in prison. | ||
| I really do. | ||
| I mean, this guy has done so much horrible things to the state of Georgia and our country. | ||
| Remember also in Georgia, everybody, the case down there that started January 9th against Rasenberger called the curling case. | ||
| The expert, Halderman, actually opened up a machine and hacked into it right in front of the judge with a ballpoint pen. | ||
| That's still pending. | ||
| That's still pending. | ||
| That judge is kind of trapped. | ||
| It's an Obama-appointed judge. | ||
| There's so many things going on, and the word is getting out in spite of Fox News and other outlets that won't talk about these things. | ||
| And Mike, equally I would say, no I won't say equally important, I would say maybe second, of second importance to secure elections in this country is a good night's sleep, though they do go hand in hand. | ||
