Speaker Time Text
stephanie ruhle
of the Centers for Disease Control, Dr. Susan Monaraz has been fired earlier this evening.
The Department of Health and Human Services announced that Dr. Monaraz is, quote, no longer Director of the CDC.
She was confirmed by the Senate less than a month ago.
The Washington Post reports she was pressured for days by HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., administration lawyers and other officials over whether she would support the recalling certain approvals for coronavirus vaccines.
Kennedy and other officials questioned Monaraz on Monday on whether she was aligned with the administration's efforts to change vaccine policy.
Well, this afternoon, Dr. Menares' advocate said she would not resign, that she was being targeted for political reasons and that she had not been notified by the White House that she was fired.
But tonight, the White House confirmed she was officially terminated.
The CDC is now also without some key senior leaders.
Following the HHS announcement that Menares was out, four other top officials resigned.
One said they could no longer serve in the role because of the ongoing weaponizing of public health.
I'm going to say that again, ongoing weaponizing of public health.
ron insana
You have a group of individuals who, you know, is Steve Bannon originally said in 2015, and no one paid attention, are trying to deconstruct the administrative state and create a government that they're going to burn down.
Burn down to the ground.
And this is extremely dangerous stuff.
I mean, not just from an economic perspective, we know what's going on at the Fed.
From a health perspective, what's going on at the CDC and at the NIH and everywhere else in the Department of Health and Human Services.
I'm 64 and a half.
I will have every pre existing condition written out that God knows to make, you know, has created in order to get the vaccines that I'm entitled to so I can stay healthy, you know, before I start drawing my Medicare that I'm not going to get next year.
ilhan omar
And so in our country, in order to continuously make excuses on why we are not going to take a collective action on a federal level that collectively addresses this problem, it's beyond me.
And I want the mothers in this country to rise up and to recognize that for the love of the Second Amendment, for the love of our gun culture, we have to have a greater love for our kids.
We have to have a greater love for the safety of our community.
Something has to prevail because the rest of the world has decided that they love their children way more.
unidentified
than they love their ability to have easy access to guns.
ilhan omar
And we have to get there as well.
michael steele
The reality is that we have an administration that has got this, you know, make America healthy again thing going on.
unidentified
I just for the record, just said that's a load of crap.
michael steele
Because I don't know how you make people healthy when you deny them access to vaccines.
I don't know how you make people healthy when you fire the people who do the research and who do the development and work within the institutions of government to make sure you have access to all those things that you need to be healthy.
So this is a large croc, which it typically is.
And it's frustrating on so many levels, Dr. Redliner, particularly when you see in states like West Virginia, you have efforts underway by the Trump administration to offer religious exemptions from school vaccine mandates, alarming public health advocates who see it as part of a broader campaign to undermine an effective immunization strategy.
How the hell are you making America healthy again when you put sending kids to school with exposure to potential diseases that could harm and kill them?
Can we all just get a grip and understand what's happeninging here?
I don't understand.
dr irwin redlener
Yes.
It's amazing.
And by the way, there's things that are happening that are not really in the public eye.
For example, we withdrew from the World Health Organization.
And that's where we and colleagues from all over the world were doing collaborative research, coming up with new ideas, new vaccines, new solutions to these problems.
And by the way, I just want to couple this for a second with the story about the school shooting.
You know, you want American children healthy and safe, and we have these 350 or 400 million guns, including assault rifles in the general public.
And then you're then you're keeping them from getting vaccinated Like they should be, you're creating probably the most dangerous era for children's health in more than a century.
And it's absolutely shocking, Michael.
And I, you know, someone's going to do something about this.
But I really think it's going to boil down to a focus on Republican senators and then putting pressure on the administration to start with getting rid of Bobby Kennedy.
chris hayes
National Guard soldiers and masked federal law enforcement officers were mobilized a thousand miles away, roaming Washington, DC in search of a violent crime wave that just doesn't exist on orders from a president who claims that he now runs.
that nation's capital, he runs the whole country, that he has the right to do whatever he wants because he's president.
A president who in recent days has mused openly about being a dictator says in starkly racist language he would love to send his troops into Chicago, New York and more American cities next.
It is a dark timeline out there, people.
I don't I don't have to tell you that.
xavier becerra
I've seen something like this at this agency.
But remember that this is not an agency that deals with widgets.
This is an agency that deals with health and life.
And when you lose your brain talent, a lot of people are going to die.
I don't know how else to put it.
I know the three people who have now resigned.
They were all essential during the COVID fight.
Dr. Daskalaskas was the point person on M. pox, monkey pox.
Deb Hurry would constantly be providing us with great guidance on where we needed to go on so many different issues involving disease.
unidentified
You just don't get rid of people like that and say you're going to replace them.
xavier becerra
It's I don't get it.
It doesn't make sense and America is going to feel the pain.
steve bannon
When you seize the institutions, let's seize them.
This is what the left did.
This is why the country is in such a bad shape.
This is why the Republican Party for years has been the controlled opposition.
This rot in our institution, you think it just occurred overnight?
Decade after decade after decade tapping it along.
miles taylor
There's no place where that's more relevant than getting to make your own decisions or letting someone else.
And Donald Trump wants to keep making your decisions for you.
And you mentioned it with gerrymandering, Nicole, but it goes beyond that.
We just got news that they've installed a head of election security at DHS who's going to use the powers of DHS to try to rig the 2026 election in Donald Trump's favor.
He wants to keep making your decisions for you.
And we know what Republicans would call this if it was happening to them.
In the party I come from, if troops were deployed on their streets, if their vote was being taken away from them, they would call it civil war.
That's how serious they would treat it.
Now, we shouldn't say that in response.
We don't want an armed response to Donald Trump's takeover, but we need to treat it with that level of seriousness because that's what Republicans would call it.
The presidential revenge campaign has gone to places this country has never seen before, and we need to mount a nonviolent response that's never been seen before.
steve bannon
This is the primal scream of a dying regime.
Pray for our enemies.
Because we're going medieval on these people.
You're not going to get a free shot on all these networks lying about the people.
The people have had a belly full of it.
I know you don't like hearing that.
I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it.
It's going to happen.
jake tapper
And where do people like that go to share the big lie?
MAGA media.
I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
steve bannon
Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.
unidentified
War room.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Band.
steve bannon
It's Thursday, 28 August in the year of our Lord, 2025.
So many fronts, so much progress we're making in really taking control.
of this country and trying to save it from these demonic progressives, Marxists, jihadists, the whole dog's breakfast.
of people that hate America.
Obviously, they hate the mega movement and they hate President Trump.
First order of business, here's what we're going to do.
We're going to get to the CDC, the trucker situation, we're going to get to that.
Ukraine, the Russians last night, ballistic missile attack, drone attack, just absolutely pounding the capital city of Kiev.
There's going to be on later.
We're also going to talk about the battle group that's down in or the amphibious.
assault group that's down or heading to the Caribbean with some navy escorts, get some destroyers down there, but what's happening in Central America, the cartel wars that's coming to Mexico, Central America, maybe even Venezuela, but we got to start with this shooting yesterday and the reason is we curated and went through everything and I personally watched and all of MSNBC last night and CNN we did it kind of on a thing so I could find it and not one time in all those shows
did they ever talk about the shooter the his the transgender ideology his this dudes because he is a man right his whatever transition he's going through the psychological issues demonic so we've got Brandon Showalter on Joe Allen is actually in the war room John Lott is going to join us I want to start with Sheila Matthew.
Sheila, you have made this case now for you.
And it's so obvious that you, ma'am, are onto something big that they want to hide because they go through.
And you said something to me yesterday, just in the middle of when this first came out, that when they have these press conferences or they're seeing the armored vehicles going around the neighborhood and you have the 5,000 cops show up and SWAT teams after the fact, that these things are made to confuse you.
And the media, when you look at it that way, it's absolutely correct.
It's to take the spotlight off the thing itself and to put it in all these sideshows.
And then they perfect it later in the evening when they get their major host on.
But we can't do this anymore.
This has to stop because this is an epidemic or a pandemic.
And it's not about guns and it's not about AR fifteen s.
It's none of that.
We have a massive problem in this country.
And of course today, between Brandon Schwalter, Stephen K. Bannon and Joe Allen, we and you, we have different angles of attack on that.
But I think it still gets back to the real head.
Explain to us yesterday what happened and how this fits into your theory of the case of what we're dealing with here, ma'am.
sheila matthews
Sure.
Thanks, Steve, for having AbleChild on.
We've been working on mass killings for over twelve years longer than before Sandy Hook.
And basically what happened yesterday was you have a massive crime scene.
You have a ballistics nightmare because of the three guns that were being used, so we have to make sure that that is collected properly.
You have a dead body, a suicide victim after committing two homicides.
So you have a crime scene.
And so this is what tells us the facts.
And Ablechild over the years.
years have been pointing out that the common factor is that the mental health records are suppressed, that the psychiatric industry is completely let off the hook, and the family members are often shielded by these mental health providers that scoop in and are sent directly into the crime scene when they are participants in the lead up often to
these mass killings.
So we have a very confused situation.
We have a mayor who really is a drama king.
that is pinning communities against each other.
And in the meanwhile, we have valuable evidence that needs to be collected.
And we're not doing that.
And the past history of these mass killings have this one thing in common, corrupted crime scenes, withholding mental health records.
So we have to look at the facts.
We can't get emotional about this.
I mean, the families are already emotional.
Having people come in and do these drama proclamations of it's about g getting more mental health.
This is the problem because then we lose sight of the legislation that needs to happen in the aftermath of these mass killings, Steve.
steve bannon
Okay, hang on for one second.
Hang on for one second.
We're going to Sheila's going to be with us.
We've got Brandon Schaalwalter, that's done more than any individual in this country to lead the fight against this radical transgender ideology.
We've got Joe Allen, who's also, I think, spent the last.
10 or 15 years of his life studying the situation.
John Lott, who's done such an amazing job.
And he's here to talk about this killing.
He's also here to give us some guidance on what's happening in DC and how it's going to roll out throughout the country.
We have a crisis with these young men.
I think now in some young women, but it's got to be dealt with.
We need to find out exactly what's going on with these mental health professionals.
What is happening, what is being advocated, what drugs are being given.
That's your problem.
You get to the bottom of that, you're going to solve a lot of this.
And all this yesterday, Sheila is absolutely correct.
The mayor was a disgrace.
Absolute disgrace.
He's a drama queen running around.
And Waltz, the governor, what a clown.
Think about it.
That guy was almost vice president of the United States.
Think about that.
Think about a party that would put that guy up to be a vice president of the United States.
Meditate on that for a moment.
Short commercial break.
We'll be back in the world.

The video also shows written statements and several guns painted with slurs.
In another clip, the speaker simply reads aloud from a clothes dryer manual.
sheila matthews
Dryer safety.
unidentified
Your safety and the safety of others are very important.
brian todd
Police say they also found a litany of writings.
brian ohara
We're also aware of a manifesto that the shooter had timed to be released on YouTube.
This manifesto appeared to show him at the scene and included some disturbing writings.
That content has since been taken down with the assistance of the FBI, and it now remains under active review by our investigators.
brian todd
Apparently, part of the plan that the shooter seemed to illustrate in those same videos on YouTube, a photo of a slab of wood.
An actual slab of wood was found at the scene blocking a door from the outside.
unidentified
This will be for the emergency exit.
xavier becerra
Pop it through the hand.
brian todd
According to social media posts, the shooter's mother worked at the school from 2016 to 2021, and the shooter graduated from the school in 2017, the shooter, now known as 23-year-old Robin Westman, identified as a female and changed their name legally to Robin from Robert in 2020.
steve bannon
Well, he's Robert to us, okay?
You got to stop this madness about going along with it.
If you're going to go along with it, then you're just adding to the madness.
Sheila, I want to go back to your theory of the case once again about the psychiatrists, the drugs, the handling of this, because all we get bombarded with is mental health and mental health professionals when they are part of the problem, if not the problem, man.
Why is it hidden from us?
And I do want to thank the authorities.
Instead of having Michael Patrick Leahy still fight in court to try to get years after the case, to try to get the manifesto of the last transgender person that shot up a bunch of tiny children, right?
At least they started, they put out the manifesto and other aspects of this yesterday.
But what's your theory of the case here dealing with psychiatrists, the big pharma, and the mental health professional community, ma'am?
sheila matthews
Well, I believe that they're hiding behind the HIPAA laws.
So HIPAA's supposed to protect children like this little boy.
If you look at his little picture of that little boy, The parents sought mental help because they obviously embraced his transition.
So the HIPAA laws are to protect the consumer, not to protect the treating psychiatrist.
So all this transgender and this psychiatric intervention has to be exposed because we have to make sure that there is no psychiatric abuse of these children going on within the treatment, which we clearly see throughout these mass killings of children on a cocktail of drugs like Adam Lanza, who was drugged all the way up to the a cocktail of drugs.
And these drugs have never been tested before on humans.
This is all drug experiment.
So HIPAA is not there to protect the psychiatrists.
The FBI and the police are not there to protect the contracts that the government has with these vendors.
It is to protect the mental health consumer who is going for mental health treatment.
That's why it's important to open these records up.
It's the humane thing to do.
In this country today, we do not have human rights in mental health.
This is forced treatment and it is evident throughout the mass killings throughout this country because a lot of these killer have been mandated on psychiatric drugs by courts.
We have a separate mental health court.
So we have an industry that has set up shop within our government and they refuse to give us any information.
They're also the same industry, by the way, Steve, that collects their own data.
So they collect the data on how many kids are on these psych drugs, but they will not release it to the public, which is a crime against humanity.
This is a human rights crisis in mental health.
This is overdrugging.
This is drug repeat diagnosed with these fraudulent labels that are ever expanding with no science behind them and then drugging them on a cocktail of drugs.
Our organization has been working on this and we're happy to work with any lawmaker, but the lawmakers are part of the problem.
They're covering up for these massive mental health contracts.
steve bannon
Hang on for a second, Shail.
I'm going to go to Brandon Showalter.
Brandon, Cat Turt has got up a post I reposted on Get her.
It's got like eight or ten of these with Nashville, et cetera.
I don't know if in the row, but pretty close to being in a row of this coming from people undergoing this transgender ideology, these people going through transitions.
What's happening here?
You've been the guy at the tip of the spear of this.
And this one's particularly demonic and vicious.
this guy had a very sophisticated way how he was going to block the school and basically shoot up all these little kids while they were at mass.
So this is a completely...
This is a one-level...
brandon m showalter
Yes, Steve, and my heart again goes out to all the families who are enduring these excruciating losses and all the suffering victims.
I don't know what it's going to take.
I mean, dead children praying, maybe that we finally reckon with the absolute poison that is gender ideology.
And you have that you're correct that there have been a series of these shootings where the shooter has been a very gender confused person.
And, you know, it's we just can't see this and not know this.
And not notice the contributing factor that this is because if you're going to tell a lie to a child that he's born in the wrong body, it's going to drive them crazy.
Now, can I make the connective loop between this action of meticulous planning of a massacre and this gender confusion?
Well, no, I don't want to make the correlation causality fallacy, but it's a trend.
As you mentioned there, there have been a number of shootings and I I can only just imagine just what this does to a child's psychology when you lie to them about something so basic about their bodies and then you drug them and maybe cut them.
I don't know the full scope of the treatment of this latest shooter, but clearly he was a disturbed and confused individual.
But what I'd like to point out, Steve, is that this goes all the way to the top.
Yesterday, when I was on your show, I pointed out how Mayor Fry pointed out that we need not, you know, hate the trans community in the wake of this.
And like, on what, in what universe does, are you going to try to protect someone who is like this, this guy carries out a murder, murder of children, and then you're rushing to defend a group of which he's a part.
Like, I don't understand how in the world that's like your first, you know, that this just goes to show the demonic nature of it.
And even this morning, the New York Times, this is the headline.
Minneapolis suspect knew her target, her target, but motive is a mystery.
That's how deep the lies go.
Our elite media, our political leaders, especially on the left, are completely consumed with these lies, so that they're just completely captured by all this stuff and they're rushing to defend, even as you see a video where this guy has a Jesus head on a target and he's listing about how much he hates Christians and Jews.
I mean, it's like the motive is a mystery.
Are you joking with me?
I mean, the demonic face of this could not be more apparent.
steve bannon
Okay, I need Grace and Mo if you get that we've got they've got the video up he's giggling he's laughing when he's talking about his victims he's um uh they've got so many different spots of the video then you've got the written part of it too um a cat turd put this up denver shooter trans aberdeen shooter trans nashville shooter trans georgia shooter trans philadelphia shooter trans iowa shooter gender fluid Ivalde shooter
trans, Colorado shooter trans, Minnesota shooter trans.
Gosh, I think I see some pattern recognition.
And it gets back to Sheila saying, this is also about the psychiatrist, people that are treating quote unquoteote treating these people what drugs are they given what are they doing what are their mental health records this is obvious what's going on and now and yesterday could have been a hundred times worse right except for some heroic action by the folks and particularly some of the little kids inside to do some protection hang on for a second Brandon I want to bring in Joe Allen Joe you've also been at this you've
joe allen
also been at this for a while I know you come at this from a slightly different angle of attack how long have you been studying mass killings Joe Allen I did my first in-depth research on mass killings in 1998 using court documents from the Lilly Lid murders in Greene County, Tennessee.
And I lost my taste for it in 2015 after the Charleston shooting by Dylan Roof.
I spent way more time on this than any normal human being should.
steve bannon
The New York Post has a cover, if we can get that up.
And by the way, we're going to go to break and bring everybody back saying this is demonic, that this guy was part of a satanic cult, that this is very much a direct work of Satan through this guy, through this, his body as an instrument.
Your thoughts, sir?
joe allen
In the short time we have, I have to say that that's probably the most accurate headline that we're going to see.
But as we go into it, I think looking at this from a historical perspective is not going to be very politically useful.
unidentified
Okay.
steve bannon
We'll drill down on that.
We also have John Lott with us.
Sheila Matthews from AbleChild.
Brandon Showalter has been at the tip of the spear of fighting this scourge.
Transgender ideology is a scourge.
And people have made money off this.
It's the worst blood money you can have.
Absolutely disgusting.
New York Times headline, Motive Unclear.
unidentified
Yo, dude, watch the video.
steve bannon
Read his manifesto.
And thank God for the authorities for putting it out that we didn't have to go to court and fight for two years.
Because they don't want the truth out whatsoever.
Short commercial break.
Return of the war in just a moment.
unidentified
your host, Stephen K. Bass.
Tell Joe to hang around.
steve bannon
Okay, let me bring in John Lott.
John, you do this for a living professionally.
Give me your assessment of yesterday and particularly the misdirection play.
You get to watch television all day, read the New York Times.
They never really get to the heart of the matter.
And they do this on purpose.
They're there to confuse you and then you have all the, you know, all the armored cars show up.
What really takes me off is when you get there and you have five thousand SWAT guys and they're all walking around up armored and you have, you know, you have the half tracks there and the Humvees with 50 caliber machine guns.
everything after that, but we don't get to the part that you need to get to solve this, which is this, which is the psychiatrist, this mental health, and now we got the transgenders on a raid shooting.
It's deeper than that.
You've also got these other kids they misdiagnosed.
As a professional that does this for a living, what's your assessment of yesterday and what does this tell us?
john lott
Well, I mean, I agree with you that there's a real mental health issue here, and particularly with regard to these transgenders.
I mean, they are massively, compared to their share of the population, engaged in these types of actions about seven times more than their share of the population.
But you know, you mentioned the misinformation in the media.
I have lots of pet peeves, but one of the main ones is these diaries and manifestos, not just for the murderer yesterday, but time after time after time, explain why they pick the targets that they do.
To me, that seems like a very newsworthy piece of information, but yet you will never see the media go through and quote or mention that they pick these targets because they want to go to a place where place where their victims can't defend themselves.
This manifesto that came out explicitly explains that he wants to go to a place where victims aren't able to defend themselves.
He calls them what they are, gun free zones.
And he says that he wants to do that because it will make it easier for him to kill more people.
And whether it be the Nashville Covenant School shooter or whether it be the Buffalo grocery store guy or going all the way back to Columbine, you see similar types of statements that are there.
And it's extremely explicit.
But yet the media says, well, you know, we don't know why he picked the target that he did.
We know his mom worked at the school, and they try to draw connections like that.
But, you know, I just don't understand why they refuse.
They just absolutely, nowhere in the media.
I tried doing news searches last night, and even though it's clear as day in his, in his manifesto that he had there, that he picked it because it was a gunfree zone, they refuse to do that.
My guess is the whole gun control debate that we have right now would be dramatically different if even once in a while the media would say why they picked the target because they wanted to go to a place a soft target where they knew their victims couldn't defend themselves and once in a while mention we've had yet another mass public shooting where civilians were banned from being able to go and have guns.
These guys may be crazy but they're not stupid.
Their goal is to get media coverage and they clearly know the more people they kill or harm the more media coverage that they're going to get and they know if they go to a place where their victims can't defend themselves they're going to be able to go and kill more people and get more media coverage.
steve bannon
The reason that the media is not going to cover that is the purpose of the media.
And you see for these ridiculous every night these happen.
This is all about trying to make some case to take weapons away from citizens.
It's so obvious.
It's almost stupid, right?
Relentless.
I want to go back.
If you go to these manifestos, and I really want to thank the authorities.
This is all coming because now you've got Kash Patel running the FBI and Pam Brandy at the FBI.
They're still fighting to get the entire manifesto out of Nashville, what over two years afterwards.
These manifestos are pretty detailed.
I mean, and they they they talk about their rage.
They talk about their hate.
They talk about the people they do hate.
And they talk about why they were targeted, right?
So why isn't this connected together as a body of evidence to show that about the mental health and particularly these transgenders now are getting even more, don't get me wrong, the whole thing is horrible about the psychiatric treatment, the misdiagnosis, big pharma putting these kids under drugs, the psychiatrists never are never being held accountable because they're an accessory to this.
They are accessories.
Big Pharma is an accessory.
And in certain situations, the parents are accessories before the fact.
But why do they all the information is right there in the manifestos.
Why do they refuse to let these manifestos out unless connect dots, sir?
john lott
Right.
Well, you know, a little bit more than half of the mass public shooters over the last 25 years have been seeing mental health care experts before engaging in the attack.
And one of the images is not one.
Not one single case did the mental health care experts identify any of those individuals as a danger to themselves or others.
You know, part of the problem is the way mental health is set up that they're used to people, their model is people who are troubled come to them for help.
And so they basically assume that whatever the person tells them is accurate.
When you read through these diaries and manifestos, you're usually doing with fairly smart people, but even just a basic level of intelligence, they realize that it's crazy for them to go and tell someone I'm going to go and shoot someone else.
You know, you have cases like the Buffalo Mask murderer at the grocery store.
He had been in high school.
At the end of high school year, a teacher had asked him what he was planning on doing over the summer.
He said, I'm going to go and find a school that has summer classes and shoot it up and kill lots of people and then go and commit suicide.
Obviously, the teacher was alarmed.
She went and told the proper authorities about it.
He ended up being assigned to go and see two mental health care professionals.
And what he told them was, look, it was a stupid joke.
I shouldn't have said it.
I'm sorry.
I won't do it again.
And the mental health care professionals basically just took him at his word.
You look at someone like the Santa Barbara Mass Murderer.
He was actually seeing three mental health care professionals, one of them the head of child psychiatric services at Los Angeles Children's Hospital, one of the leading experts on child violence in the world.
And he writes in his diaries there about how easy it is to fool the person because all he has to do is just say when he's asked if he's thinking about doing anything violent, he says, of course, not.
I have nothing to do with that.
I'm not going to, I have no desire to do anything.
And the mental health care experts would just basically take him at his word that that's what he wanted to do.
So unless they want to get caught, unless they want to be stopped from doing these types of things, you know, you're not going to the way the mental health care profession is set up, you're not going to stop them.
You're not going to catch them.
And it's, you know, it's scary.
I force myself to go and read through diary or manifesto one after another.
You know, one of the things also that the media does in order to cover these things up is, you know, they want to make it sound like this is a white supremacy type thing.
You know, if you look at the motives for these killer, about 75% of the time they have no political motive.
They're just individuals who are purely suicidal and they want to get media attention.
People have always wanted to go and commit suicide.
But someplace along the line, people realize that they could get worldwide media attention by killing a lot of people.
And that, as they would say, if I can get more media attention.
Or they'll say, I'm getting my name in the history books and people don't appreciate me, but at least they'll appreciate me now and know that I was here.
And so, if you want to stop these things, I'm not going to go and say getting rid of the First Amendment and rewriting it somehow.
I'm not even sure how you would do that.
But what you have to do is take away their ability to go and get that attention.
And the way you do that is by making it so someone there is able to quickly respond to go and stop them.
Look, we have over ten thousand schools in the United States that have armed teachers and staff.
We've had many of them for decades.
There has not been one single attack at any school that allows armed teachers and staff where anybody's been killed or wounded.
All the attacks occur at other places.
Now, one difference I have with many conservatives is they want to have armed uniform police officers in schools.
And the problem that you have is that these attackers have real tactical advantages.
If they see somebody in uniform, they can either wait for that person to leave, maybe go to another building before they attack, or they can move to on to another target themselves.
Or if they're going to attack, who do you think they take out first if they're going to go there?
They're going to take out the one person in uniform, the one person that they know who has a gun.
One way to think about this is we have air marshals on planes.
Does anyone think air marshals ought to be in uniform?
Do you think that would be useful?
We would never do that.
Because if there's a terrorist on a plane and you have the one air marshall there on the plane in uniform, you're giving the terrorist a real advantage to know who it is he has to take out first.
And so the same thing is true with officers.
If you're going to have a police officer at the school, then please don't have them in uniform.
Make them a staff person, a PE coach or something, so they blend in.
But instead of having signs in front of schools that say these schools are gun free zones, please put a sign in front of the school that says warning.
Select teachers and staff are carrying concealed, and we'll use these guns to protect the students and others there.
You know, outside of California and New York, we're talking about about ten percent of the adult population in the country with a concealed carry permit.
You can go to a mall, you can go to a grocery store, you can go to a restaurant, and there's very likely someone by by by you who has a gun, but you would never know.
And the same thing is true with these terrorists.
They won't know if there's a teacher behind them or to the side who might be able to go and stop them, and that deters them from going in there.
Just read the diaries.
Read the diary or manifesto that came out yesterday where the person explicitly and they do this over and over again, explain why they picked the targets that they do.
The media doesn't have to guess, as they're doing in this case here.
Just read it and report it.
But you will I did news searches last night.
You won't find one single news outlet, not Fox, not any place, surely not the New York Times and Washington Post and places like that, which will go and have a news article on how they pick the target that they do.
I've for years I've talked to editors at different news bureaus and I say, look, we've had yet another mass public shooting at a place where guns are banned.
Can't we mention that?
You mentioned the type of gun you use.
You mentioned how you think the person got the gun.
Many times the initial news reports are wrong on those things.
This is something easy to check.
And they say, Okay, John, if you can get back to me quickly within the news cycle, and I would do that for years.
But what would happen is that when I did get back to them, they said, Well, it would be political if we included that.
And my response is saying that they picked a place where people were banned from having guns.
Is that more or less political than you going and calling it an assault weapon or going?
Going and guessing how they you think they got a hold of the gun.
You know, they have all these laws that they want to pass.
steve bannon
Yeah.
Yeah, hang on one second.
We're going to take a short commercial break.
Just hang on one second.

Got it.

We will fight till they're all gone.
We rejoice when they're gone.

I'm going to try to get it in about the Federal Reserve, the governor of the Federal Reserve, President Trump now saying, you got to go.
There's going to be a clash of all of this.
I think some pretty big constitutional issues of President Trump's Article II powers.
And I would say the unconstitutional way that the Federal Reserve is set up.
Yo, that's why this fight's so big.
Anyway, birchgold.com.

President Trump just went up.
Three minutes ago, Governor Pritzker had six murders in Chicago this weekend.
20 people were shot, but he doesn't want to ask me for help.
Can this be possible?
The people are desperate.
for me to stop the crime, something the Democrats aren't capable of doing.
Stay tuned, President DJT.
I think the template seeing work in the nation's capital is coming to the windy city.
I'll get into that with John a lot in a moment.
Also, CDC, we got so much to do.
Joe Allen, you're going to be back at 6 to go in this more depth because you've studied this quite thoroughly.
It also ties together with a lot of the stuff about transhumanism.
You're going to connect some dots this afternoon, but give me your best two minutes right now, sir.
joe allen
Well, Steve, it is an absolute scandal that the media has refused by and large to show the manifesto to highlight the transgender identity of the shooter or really delve into the motive as stated in the manifesto.
And you can see in the writings in the clip, everything from kick the spic to six million wasn't enough to kill Donald Trump, a schizophrenic sort of motive.
But if you look at the motives they do emphasize, such as the motives of Dylan Roof in Charleston, South Carolina, 2015, white nationalism.
If you look at the motive of Anders Brevick in Norway.
Mass immigration was his issue.
He wanted to kill off all the immigrants and spark the movement to kill the liberals.
But you also have some exceptions to the rule.
You have Cho, the Asian Virginia Tech shooter in 2007 who killed on the basis of social justice warrior ideology.
You have the black shooters in 2013, Christopher Doerner and Aaron Alexis, one a cop and the other, I believe, a soldier shooting up the navy yard just south of here in the Washington DC Navy Yard.
So you have this wide array.
I think the trans ideology is important, but a shooting that happened in my own hometown in 2008 at the Unitarian Universalist Church was conducted by a guy who was amped up on Michael Savage, Bill O'Reilly, and Sean Hannity.
So I think that the ideological angle is important, but I think that to show this in the light of it's because of trans is grossly inaccurate.
steve bannon
Okay, fine.
We'll get more clarity because that was clear as mud.
We'll get more clarity from you at six o'clock.
Jerry and Joe stick around again.
I need you.
I need you as a camera opereraman in the war room trying to get Michael Caputo there.
Brandon, show Walter, I know you disagree.
This is what this show's about.
What do you have for us?
brandon m showalter
Well, I wouldn't want to again.
I wouldn't want to make any kind of correlation, causality, fallacy or conclusive proof, but I can't help but notice that this episode, Steve, crystallizes just how dark and diabolical transgender ideology is.
It's, you know, it leads nowhere good.
We are doing a massive service lying to young people about something as basic as their bodies.
And if you read that guy, you watch that video, if you can stomach to see his manifesto, the demonic nature of it is readily apparent.
And what this shows also is.
just how far this has captured the tops of our society, particularly the mass media and the Democratic Party as a whole.
It leads nowhere good.
When we lie to children about the basics of their bodies, they're going crazy.
And so again, I'm not going to say this is the direct cause of this massacre, but it sure doesn't help, and I'll just leave it there.
steve bannon
Yeah, Grace, Grace and Ma need to bundle and make sure every but this weekend folks, you got to watch the videos and you got to read this guy's writing.
You need to see the manifestos out.
You need to see it.
Brandon did such an extraordinary job and all that.
Where's your social media, Brandon?
Where did people go to find out?
Go to follow all the great work you've done to combat this quite dangerous ideology, sir.
brandon m showalter
I'm on X at Brandon M show, and I would point everyone to our latest episode of our documentary podcast series called Generation Indoctrination.
We highlight the siblings and this transgender ideology rips apart families, and this new, very original shoe leather reporting episode is about the siblings who have watched their brothers and sisters collapse into this confusion.
It's a heart rending episode, and you can hear it at generationindoctrination dot com or wherever you get your podcasts on all major platforms.
steve bannon
Sheila Matthews, you got two minutes.
Walk us through what needs to be done.
You have been hammering this, you've been dead right on this from the beginning.
What is Ablechild saying needs to be done immediately, ma'am?
sheila matthews
Well, we need to open up the mental health records, we need to really discuss the fraud of the diagnosis of the labels.
There's no science behind it, and the relationship between the government.
As of yesterday, Pam Bondi announced going into Labor Day that children should be aware of fentanyl and to be wary of the pills that they take.
She defended Adderall and Xanax as being okay to take.
And I think we need to have a conversation about the prescription drugs that are given out to one in four Americans.
And that's one, these children are on a cocktail of drugs.
This is inhumane.
This is a human rights issue.
This is not a political issue.
This is about getting to the evidence.
And we need to do that through opening the records and educating the public on the relationship that the government has with endorsing psychiatric treatments for our children in schools.
We have an abundance of mental health.
We are in a crisis financially, and we have to look at the billions of dollars spent on these fraudulent labels and these dangerous mind-altering drugs.

And Ablechild, Sheila, real quickly, where do people, yeah, where do people go to get you?
sheila matthews
They come to ablechild dot org dot Our board member, Kelly O'Mara, has a book out called Still Psyched Out.
We recommend you read it.
