owen shroyer
Ladies and gentlemen, we have an absolutely loaded war room today.
It's the veterans call in special.
So that means your calls line to line, veterans get the priority.
And we got great veteran guests joining us like Gretchen Smith from code of vets, Greg Reese, Tim Reams, and we're expecting Michael Cargill in studio, local gun shop owner who is fighting the illegal shutdown order.
you And so now they're saying, oh no, you are an essential business.
You can operate. Well, it doesn't matter, folks.
Everyone is an essential business.
Okay? This is America.
The government doesn't get to decide when you get to operate and when you don't.
Sorry, I'm standing by that.
You're not going to put some fear of a virus in me and then make me give up all my freedoms.
Now, I got a lot to get to.
And I'm really debating where to start.
So I'm just going to go right in because this clip is going viral.
And I'm going to have to say something that a lot of people aren't going to want to admit.
But it is true. That kind of seems like that's going to have to be our role right now.
It's like a 50-50 split.
Some people willing to call out the president, not blame him, but point to the fact, hey, this is not a win for America.
The stimulus bill is a financial rape job, an economic suicide pact.
No good. And then you have people just saying, no, no, no, just trust the plan.
But you have... Members of Congress like AOC and Haley Stevens, here is the viral clip of AOC responding to the $2 trillion stimulus COVID relief bill.
alexandria ocasio-cortez
corporate bailouts with as few strings as possible in American history.
Shameful. The greed of that fight is wrong for crumbs, for our families, and the option that we have.
Is to either let them suffer with nothing or to allow this greed and billions of dollars which will be leveraged into trillions of dollars to contribute to the largest income inequality gap in our future.
There should be shame about what was fought for in this bill and the choices that we have to make.
owen shroyer
So that's Cortez.
Here is Democrat Representative Haley Stevens.
alexandria ocasio-cortez
We beam for our manufacturers who have no...
unidentified
I request 30 more seconds because I rise before you adorning these...
alex jones
The gentleman from Maryland is recognized.
unidentified
...not for personal attention, not for personal attention, but to encourage you to take this...
The gentleman from Maryland is recognized.
stephen in florida
I rise for every American who is scared right now!
alex jones
To the families... The gentlelady will suspend.
The gentleman from Maryland is recognized.
The gentlelady is out of order.
tim reames
I yield the gentlelady 30 additional seconds.
unidentified
The gentlewoman is recognized for an additional 30 seconds.
The cause of their servitude.
Sharing in the profession with those who have not come before you.
alexandria ocasio-cortez
Similar times of trying medical need.
Wars and flus pass.
You will see darkness.
You will be pushed.
unidentified
And our society needs you to stand together at this time.
alexandria ocasio-cortez
Our country loves you.
To our doctors and our nurses.
owen shroyer
I wear these legs. Now let me explain something here.
AOC and this girl are being obviously laughed at and ridiculed, made fun of, but I got news for you folks.
unidentified
They're right. They're right.
owen shroyer
And for Thomas Massey to be one of the only Republicans calling this out, this bill, this thief job, this theft, this disguise of a relief bill and the president calling it a win, for Thomas Massey to be the only Republican that I can see calling it out, big shout out to Chip Roy, But man, I'm proud that I voted for, for standing up for Thomas Massey.
It's not easy to stand up to Donald Trump, but let me tell you something right now.
Those two ladies ranting and raving were right.
And you have to understand something.
This is what Republicans should be doing as well.
Not just about this, but about the illegal spying.
All the lies of the mainstream media against Trump.
All the crimes that Democrats try to squeeze into their agenda and they just use that as the excuse.
They should be sounding like those women.
Ladies and gentlemen! It's Friday, March 27th.
2020, this is the InfoWars War Room, brought to you by InfoWarsStore.com, live at band.video.
It's the last Friday of the month.
Is this the first veterans call-in show we've done this month?
Usually the last Friday of the month, but 2020 has been so crazy.
I don't even know if we've been able to do it.
Glad. This is the first, confirmed by Producer Scott.
First Veterans Call-In Show of the Year.
Very excited for this. Great guest coming up.
Michael Cargill in studio right now.
Central Texas Gunworks.
They're not shutting his store down.
We'll get into that story. Gretchen Smith from Coda Vets in the first hour as well.
InfoWars reporter Greg Reese and Tim Reams also in studio.
So a big Veterans Call-In Show for you today.
Now, I don't know where to begin here because I've got the list of all the cities and the counties saying, oh, this is a mandatory curfew.
You must shut down. We pressed against that here in Austin, Texas and wrote on the streets.
The police tried to basically intimidate us and tell us to go home.
We refused. They obliged.
But, you know, they can and actually the Austin police here.
I'll just read this right now and then we'll go to Michael Cargill.
The city of Austin put this out today.
The Austin Police Department has received several inquiries regarding the stay-at-home work safe order.
It's important to know that this is not a mandatory lockdown.
APD's priority is to keep the public safe through education and awareness.
Additional documentation beyond regular ID requirements for transportation is not necessary for travel to essential activities or businesses.
If you see violations, you can make a report by dialing 311.
But basically what they're admitting is what we already know is true.
The government can't force you to shut down.
The government can't force you to stay inside.
The government does not have the right or the power to create a caste-based economic system who gets to operate and who doesn't.
So when they told Michael Cargill, oh, we're going to need to shut down.
And then unbelievably, you've had amazing videos.
You've had the one guy who takes a dump out in front of your store while he's shooting up heroin.
And he has a nice park that his gun shop is in, folks.
He should not be dealing with that.
It's a very nice populated area.
And now you have the Austin police showing up with the fire department and everybody else saying, oh, are you in a central business?
Can you operate? I mean, first of all, they don't have that right to come shut you down.
So get into this issue and that event when they came to your door at the store and what happened.
michael cargill
Yeah, and actually, I'm a veteran.
I served 12 years in the Army, so I'm glad...
owen shroyer
Yeah, you know what? I forgot to mention that. By the way...
Infrastructure was one of your main things.
They can't figure out a damn thing with infrastructure in this city.
You tried to fix that, they wouldn't put you on the board.
michael cargill
Right. Yeah, so basically what happened was you have different counties and cities in Texas around the state are trying to shut down gun stores.
And what we're saying is they don't have that right because we have laws actually in place that, you know, the Hurricane Katrina bill, that's in place.
We also have a...
Another law that's in place that says that, you know, cities and municipalities cannot come up with stricter gun laws in our state legislature.
You know, that is reserved for the state, not the county and the city.
And so someone filed a complaint and said that, hey, Central Texas Gunner Works was open and they're not an essential business.
They actually called us and threatened us and said they were going to call in and call it in.
Do you know who that was? No, I don't know who it was.
owen shroyer
So some anonymous person, probably a liberal progressive Democrat, doesn't like people getting guns.
michael cargill
Absolutely. He said, you guys should not be open.
You need to shut down. You're not an essential business.
Gun stores, you know, are not important.
And I said, you know, actually gun stores are the most important thing.
You need food, you need water, you need medical care, and you need your Second Amendment.
owen shroyer
To protect all of that.
michael cargill
Absolutely. And so they basically, they filed that complaint.
And so the Austin Police Department, the code enforcement, and also the fire marshal all showed up at the same time to tell us that, you know, hey, you know, check us out and see what we're doing and find out they can shut us down.
owen shroyer
As if there's some, like, raging party at Central Texas Gunworks.
Hey, we're giving out free guns and we're shooting guns in the air.
Come on down. It was just business as normal for you.
michael cargill
Yeah. So basically, I locked the door in front of them, stopped them from coming in, and then I went outside, unlocked the door, went outside, and I said, how can I help you?
They said, well, we received a complaint and we're here to investigate that complaint.
And so I said, well, we're adhering to all the federal and state laws that we're supposed to adhere to because we're a federal farms licensed dealer.
And so I let one guy, the code enforcement guy, come in.
So he came in, he checked us out.
Then he left and said, okay, everything's fine.
I said, in the future, you can give me a call because you're going to get a lot of these complaints because we're not shutting down.
The Second Amendment is one of the most important things that we have in this nation, and our founders knew that, and that's why it's the second.
owen shroyer
Thank God for Michael Cargill and all the other gun store owners who are not abiding by the shutdown and standing up for their right I mean, I shouldn't even have to explain this, but like, as soon as the government has...
See, this is what it's about to me, Michael.
As soon as the government has conquered your will or your confidence and your freedom, it's game over.
So as long as people like Michael Cargill and others are saying, wait a second, no, no, no, we're not shutting down.
We're going to open our store and we're going to sell guns and ammunition.
That's what we do here.
You have no reason to shut us down.
It's all about confidence.
And the police know that. That's why you said the code guy walked in, said, oh, you're up to standard.
Okay, walked out. Because they know they can't shut you down.
michael cargill
That's right. And so later, well, earlier today, Ken Paxton, which is the Attorney General for the state of Texas, released an opinion.
Because Honorable Dustin Burroughs, who's a state representative, he's actually the chair of the House Ways and Means Committee for the state of Texas.
And he actually sent in a...
A request where the Attorney General said, hey, you need to give an opinion on this.
Can gun stores and manufacturers stay open?
Can counties and cities and municipalities actually make them closed?
And so Ken Paxton, which is the Attorney General for the state of Texas, says no.
You cannot force, counties and cities cannot force gun stores to shut down or manufacturers to shut down because we have laws in place that actually protect that.
We have a preemptive law that says that That is reserved for the state legislature to rule on this.
And we also have the Hurricane Katrina bill and other things that are in place to say, hey, you cannot do this.
You can't confiscate firearms.
You cannot tell a gun store or manufacturer that they have to close.
owen shroyer
Where do you think it goes from here?
Do you think they try to clamp down on this and force you guys to close or will they back off and say, OK, we cannot force anybody to close, really?
I mean, yeah, a gun store is one issue for an obvious reason, multiple reasons.
But in my opinion, they can't shut anybody, they can't force anybody to close.
Restaurants, bars, they can't force you to close.
michael cargill
Well, I think they know the track record now.
You know, they know the fact that we've been down this road before with the city of Austin and other cities in Texas.
And that, you know, and people got to remember, as goes Texas, we'll go the rest of the country.
And so we have to hold Texas.
This is the last one we got. We got to stay and defend it.
Because if you let Texas go, then you're going to lose other cities and other states, you know.
So we're not going to let Texas go.
And so... They're just trying to do this like California.
Look at California, man. They shut down the gun stores in California and said, hey, you can't sell to anyone other than law enforcement.
And if I was a gun store and you told me I had to stay open only for law enforcement, I think I would shut down because the people, they're the ones that need the protection.
Law enforcement's got plenty of guns.
They have their whole system designed to protect law enforcement.
And I'm not picking on law enforcement.
I support our law enforcement.
What I'm saying is that the people, they need the help.
The Supreme Court has already ruled that local law enforcement or law enforcement has no duty to protect you, only general duty to enforce the law.
And so it's going to be up to you to protect yourself and also protect your family.
You are the first responder for your family.
owen shroyer
And how is this not—I mean, it's beyond fascism, but it's just base-level fascism to say, oh, we're going to cut off gun sales to everybody except the government.
Right. I mean, that's like the government coming in and— It's one step away from gun confiscation, basically.
It's them stepping in front of that middleman and saying, no, we get all of these, and whoever was behind us in this process, they're cut out of the deal.
michael cargill
Yeah, we already had a county judge in North Texas, up in Dallas-Fort Worth area, come out and say, hey, you know what we're going to do?
If we have to, we can commandeer your property, is what this guy said.
You know, in Tarrant County, which is in North Texas, Tarrant County, he came out and said, you know what, it's written in his order.
As the county judge, he said, hey, if I need to, I can commandeer your property.
And I said, no, that's not going to happen, not on my watch, not while I'm here.
owen shroyer
Well, when we come back from this break, I want to get into your thoughts on the fact that you had this entire response from multiple government entities just for you being open.
I mean, how dare you even be open?
But when drug addicts come and want to use drugs right in front of your shop or use the sidewalk as a bathroom and relieve themselves and wipe with their bare hands like, oh, that gets to go on.
The cops won't shut that down.
To their credit, they're trying.
But the city council and others keep letting them roam free.
But, oh, wow, Central Texas Gunworks is open!
Shut them down!
I'm telling you, I was telling this to Michael Cargill, I don't know how, I don't know why, but I knew Michael would be on with me today.
And this was like a last-minute thing, and I'm always glad to have him.
Central Texas Gunworks owner, that's where I got...
I got this little beauty right here.
Nice! Every day. Carry it with me.
Never leaves. And so I think some of the crew was thinking about heading up there, too.
Because to me, this is like the greatest marketing campaign ever.
It's like, hey, we're still open!
That's right. It's like, that's all you gotta do right now.
It's just, hey, we're open! It's like, oh, I can go eat there.
I can go get a gun there. So that's great.
You know, we were talking about the police response.
Let me just get your thoughts on this as just a basic issue of priority.
And I want to be clear, too.
We're not attacking the Austin police.
I would say 98% of my interactions with them have been very positive, and overall I like them.
There's been some negative things, but when you have as much interaction with them as I do, it's a given.
But 98% positive.
So we're not pointing them out as at fault here.
It's a priority issue inside the city council and the mayor's office where, again, Central Texas Gunworks is in a very nice area.
This should not be an area where you're worried about things like drug addicts showing up on your front porch or some homeless guy relieving himself in your backyard.
But that's what's going on in this area.
I mean, restaurants, bars, shops, everything right in this area where his shop is.
And so you've actually filmed this before.
We've featured the story at Infowars.
You've had drug addicts, you know, abuse drugs right in front of your shop.
People were leaving themselves in front of your shop, behind your shop.
There's basically kind of a...
It's kind of like a stow and go homeless encampment right across the highway there.
They come mop it up. A week later, it pops back up.
They come mop it up. It's kind of just a cyclical thing.
But then you're open.
How dare you even be open? And they send the entire task force after you.
I mean, that has to be frustrating as a business owner to see that.
michael cargill
Yeah, it gets really frustrating because, you know, you have the homeless camps, just like you said, that are right there.
And you have all this trash and everything that's being collected.
So if we're supposed to, you know, stay clean, wash our hands and, you know, use sanitizer and all that stuff, then what do you say, you know, to the homeless in the homeless camps and all the trash that they're building up?
You know, I don't understand this because they're not addressing that issue.
But then me as a business who's providing safety, and that's what it is.
We're providing safety.
Because you're going to be your first responder.
And training, too. And training.
And so they're saying, I have to shut down.
They're trying to make me shut down.
And I refuse to do that.
Because this is too important to me.
The Second Amendment is the most important thing.
Because with that, you can protect all of your constitutional rights.
Once you take that away from me, then everything else is gone.
And so we got to hold on to it.
And like I said, if we lose Texas, we're going to lose the rest of this country.
owen shroyer
Well, I want businesses to realize this is a marketing opportunity.
And I don't even know the proper way to play it out.
It's kind of uncharted waters.
But it's like, hey, we're open.
It's like, hey, we're open.
It's like most places are closed down.
Like, for example, there's a member of a crew.
Who's waiting to get a gun from another shop?
Closed. Can't get it.
Can't get access to it. They're closed.
I said, hey, Central Texas Gunworks is open, so you may have another customer there.
So I'm telling people, these businesses that are open, go support them now and say, thank you.
Thank you for not shutting down.
Thank you for keeping the people employed.
Thank you for not being intimidated.
Thank you for exhibiting your freedom to be open and engage in commerce in this country.
Because to me, that's just like a salute.
The business owners that are staying open need to be supported in this for multiple reasons.
But the biggest one to me is just not giving in to the fear and saying, no, we're free in this country.
We can remain open.
No government can tell us to shut down.
michael cargill
And that's the kicker to it. We are free in this country.
I shouldn't have to show a pass to drive on the interstate.
I shouldn't have to worry about someone pulling me over and saying, hey, let me see your papers.
This is the United States of America.
I shouldn't have to show you my papers.
This is not Russia. This is not China.
I'm not going to show you my papers.
This is the United States of America.
And... We're not standing for that kind of stuff.
We have to stop this right now, right here.
There's no need for you to show papers.
We're free to go about our business.
owen shroyer
Now, I want to get Michael's take on the stimulus bill.
Again, a veteran as well.
So it worked out perfectly here on Veterans Call-In Show Day.
The stimulus bill, $2 trillion, $6 trillion magically out of air.
That's how the fractional reserve banking system works.
Most people never even know about that.
The book on it is like 1,200 pages long.
But I was making this analogy in the break, and I want to get Michael's opinion on it.
But this is like me. If I'm Michael Cargill's neighbor, okay, at his house, and I see some smoke coming from the backyard, so maybe I peer over there.
And I see someone's having a little bonfire in the backyard.
You know, kids are cooking marshmallows or whatever.
And I'm like, oh my gosh!
There's a fire at the Cargill house!
And so I call Michael. I'm like, Michael!
There's a fire at your house!
It could burn down the whole thing!
You're gonna lose everything!
And he's like, oh my gosh!
Well, what should I do? Well, just give me access to your credit card and I'll max it out and you'll be safe!
And he's like, okay! And then he comes home and it was just a little...
You know, a little bonfire in the back.
The kids like to have bonfires every week.
And so it was put out and now it's done.
And he's sitting here saying, wait a second, you just maxed out my credit card and the house was never going to burn down.
That's what this feels like to me with this coronavirus relief package.
michael cargill
Your thoughts? Yeah. Yeah, there's something going on behind the scenes that we're not seeing just yet.
Something is getting done in the back room because there's a reason why they're ramming this down our throats.
Anytime we get something rammed down our throats like this, we usually pay for it later on down the road.
You have the, man, what was that bill doing 9-11 that came up?
The Patriot Act? The Patriot Act.
owen shroyer
You probably hear about that a lot in your industry.
michael cargill
Goodness, yeah. And I'm I'm a disabled veteran, so I served 12 years in the United States Army.
I got a metal plate and seven screws in my wrist.
Let me tell you, the Patriarch Act, that's one of the worst things they ever passed in this country because those things now are coming back and they're hunting Americans.
Whatever's getting done right now, we don't see it yet.
You just, you don't see it, but something is happening and this trillion dollar, two trillion dollar bill, This is something that we're going to have to pay for later on down the road, and I hope I'm dead before we have to pay for it.
owen shroyer
And what comes after this?
They've just set a precedent for a $2 trillion stimulus package.
We haven't even had 10,000 die in this country from this deal, this coronavirus.
So, I mean, my goodness, what comes next?
What happens if there's a real biological epidemic that is killing tens of thousands, if not hundreds, if not millions?
unidentified
Ten trillion! A gajillion dollar stimulus package!
owen shroyer
Gajillions of dollars now!
I mean, where does this end? In fact, I do want to say, if Scott is available to come on, because he was making a point, and I always want the crew to just chime in, to just kind of pepper in their comments and their commentary, but Scott actually found some of what you're talking about, the unforeseeables, the unknown.
Scott, what was one of those that you saw?
Scott back there, ready to go, guys?
scott bronson
I can't see. I'm here.
I'm here. So I was looking at it, and they're giving $350 million to the immigration and refugee thing.
And I have up on eight over here, Derek.
The most immigrant or refugees we've ever had is...
We could say $100,000 to make the math easy, but if they're giving $350 million to that, that means they're dedicating $3,500 to every potential refugee that could come in, but they're only giving an American taxpayer $1,200.
owen shroyer
And then you have AOC literally...
Complaining that there's not enough relief for non-citizens in this bill.
You just pointed out right there.
There's more relief for non-citizens in this bill than actual citizens.
I mean, your response to that, Michael Cargill?
michael cargill
If they think this is a problem, they need to shut the border down.
We shouldn't allow people to cross the border while we have this going on.
If you're that afraid that, you know, this is going to hit that many people, then shut everything down.
Don't let anyone come across the border.
And, you know, let's come up with an antibody.
But, you know, honestly, I think we've already had this.
I think a lot of people have already had this already.
I think we had this last year. There's some bug going on, going around last year.
owen shroyer
And the reason why we have the most cases is because we test the most people because we have the best health care system.
Right. Michael Cargill, Central Texas Gunworks.
If you need a gun in Central Texas, that's where to go.
They're staying open. And let me tell you, nice options they got there.
Look at that one he just pulled out.
michael cargill
Come on and see me. Oh my gosh!
owen shroyer
Maybe my favorite woman on Twitter...
I don't know if I want to commit to that, but I mean, I'm pretty confident in saying that.
Gretchen Smith from Code of Vets, who just already does heroic work for veterans, folks.
I mean, it's honestly unspoken if you're not following her work, the community that she's built, the people that she's uplifted.
about that all day and it warrants conversation. But the reason why I wanted to get Gretchen on today for this Veterans Call-In Show is because I've noticed her fire, her passion, her fury lately, and she will not back down. And so it's rare to have that and I wanted that to be exhibited here on the show. I think that I kind of represent that too. But with Gretchen, she has such a strong community behind her and she's really uplifted so many people.
There's power behind that.
And so I really respect you for that, Gretchen, and that's why I respect your voice, and I want it to be heard here today.
But your fire and your passion, your fury right now is directed in the same thing that I'm upset at, and that's this stimulus bill, $2 trillion.
And when we look into this...
Look, the average American is going to be lucky if this really impacts them that positively.
And yet, what are we dealing with?
We're looking at a huge threat of insider trading.
We're looking at a huge threat of what happens after a $2 trillion stimulus.
$6 trillion? $10 trillion?
A gajillion? We're talking about something that's killed less than, I think it's 1,200 Americans total now.
And we have all the, oh, the U.S. is leading the world in coronavirus patients.
Well, that's because we test more than anybody else.
Because we have the best healthcare system here.
And so we're basically just being totally...
And not just on the financial side, but the spirit of freedom.
That's being killed.
So, Gretchen Smith, let's get the rant.
Let's get the throat punch rant from Gretchen Smith here.
What do you think about this stimulus package?
unidentified
It's insanity. Our nation has gone off the rails.
Mainstream media has weaponized this virus, and they're killing us.
They are leading the charge, the mainstream media and the left.
They've just taken it and they've just run away with it.
And for whatever reason, D.C. has allowed this to happen.
Anybody with common sense and has a half a brain can see that, yes, this is a virus.
Yes, we need to take it seriously.
We've had, what, 1,200 deaths thus far?
The flu has killed many more of us.
We need to keep our nation.
We all know we need to keep our nation open.
We need to keep our economy moving forward.
That's the key to our success.
It's all about the jobs, stupid.
It's all about the economy.
That's what we thrive on.
That's who we are. That's who we are as Americans.
The jobs, the economy, we're all individuals.
We have to be out there earning our paychecks, feeding our families.
They have us locked down for 1,200 deaths.
I don't get it. It's making me crazy.
And I'm seeing American after American, veteran after veteran, lose their jobs, millions of them, in a matter of days.
What is it going to look like 30 days, 60 days down the road?
We can't take it. We cannot sustain the path that we're on.
We're crushing our country.
And I don't see the sense in it.
Am I missing something, Owen?
Because the numbers are not justifying these extreme measures that we're taking.
owen shroyer
Well, I think we're all missing something.
Like you said, inquiring minds, anybody with reason and logic left is seeing this.
The stimulus bill and scratching their heads saying, this is not a victory.
We just documented here, there's more relief money going to non-citizens in this bill than Americans.
I mean, when are Americans even going to see this check?
I mean, give me a break. I doubt they'll ever even see a cent of this.

No. No, I've been looking at the bill.
I mean, it's over 800 pages long.
They're giving $250 million to the IRS. They're giving $350 million to the State Department for Migration and Refugee Assistance.
$400 million for Federal Action Assistance Commission.
$88 million is going to the Peace Corps.
Where the hell is the money for the people?
We're getting like 5% and the 95% is going to pork.
This is ridiculous. It's going to big government.
It's going to corporate welfare.
And a very small percentage is going to the Americans and to the small businesses.
Let me tell you something, Owen.
It is bad. Our small businesses are closing every day.
They cannot sustain this.
They are being crushed. And this bill is a travesty.
It's a joke. It's a slap into every one of our faces.
All Americans, all veterans should be up in arms over this bill.
owen shroyer
Well, look.
I'm saying the fact that we don't have a million Americans marching to D.C. over this, it really just shows you how complacent Americans have become.
And it always becomes like some political issue, a political football, where the left and the right are kicking it back and forth.
No, every American is getting screwed by this.
Whether you identify as a Republican or a Democrat or a genderqueer or unicorn, whatever else goes on in this country now, It affects all of us.
And so we're all getting screwed here.
We're all buying into the media hysteria over this coronavirus.
I guarantee you, look, you could do, they'd say, oh, it's just the flu crowd.
Like, that's an insult to bully you from talking about this.
But look, I could do this every year with the flu.
I could have a running tally of Americans dying from the flu, Americans affected with the flu, staying at home, and we could do this every year.
20,000 dead from the flu!
So now we shut down the economy every year where 20,000 die from the flu, which are mostly old people?
I mean, where was this shutdown?
Where was all this during the H1N1 with it affected millions of Americans?
So something's going on behind closed doors.
We're all asking what.
It doesn't add up.
But what do you think is more of a threat to this country right now, Gretchen?
Do you think it's This economic screw job, this financial screw job as the stimulus bill, or is it the fact that Americans have been so neutered now, as soon as the government says boo, as soon as the media says boo, they shelter in place and close their businesses and nobody protests.
unidentified
We lost all of our freedoms in the past two weeks without one gunshot being put off.
I'm completely speechless by how easily Americans completely just said, OK, take all my freedoms.
I'm willing to stay in my house.
Again, if the data were to be more severe and stringent than what they are now, What are we looking at?
1200 deaths? That's just, it makes no sense!
The H1N1 With quadruple what this was, or even more than that, 12,000.
It's insane. It doesn't make any sense.
We literally lost all of our freedoms in this, and we willingly gave them up.
For what? We're crushing our economy.
We are causing our children our future.
This is going to be devastating long-term.
At best, we're going to have a recession.
At worst, it's going to be a Great Depression-like crisis.
We don't know because we don't know how long this shutdown is going to last.
It's absolutely, there is no common sense in it, no sanity, no rational thought.
I'm at a loss. Literally, unless we're missing something that they're not telling us, if this is what we're shutting down for, we're in trouble.
Because we have literally lost all of our...
We've lost our balls.
Where's our guts? Where's our American fire?
Where's our American spirit?
Why aren't we rising up and saying, hell no, this is not who we are.
We have to go to work.
Our country will not survive this if we do not stand up, walk out of our homes, and go get our paychecks, go to work.
owen shroyer
And I'm seeing from the shutdown crowd, hey, you know...
The earlier generations, other generations were asked to go to war and to do this.
You're just being asked to shelter inside and watch Netflix.
No, that's not true.
I'm being asked to give up my freedoms.
That's what I'm being asked to do.
Don't say, hey, you're being asked to sit inside and play video games for your country.
No, you're asking me to give away all my rights.
That's what you're asking me to do.
I don't accept that argument.
And there's also this other thing.
We're trying to protect older people.
We're trying to protect these people. The average person I know that's older, they don't care.
They don't want this shut down.
The tough veterans out there that fought in the Korean War that are still alive and other wars, they're sitting here looking around like, what are you cowards doing?
Like, what? Like, I can't even imagine.
Like, I'd like to hear, we're about to go to break, but let's hear from Gretchen Smith, all the veterans that she's in touch with, a lot of them really old, a lot of them young.
So she's heard all the perspectives here, folks.
What are they thinking? I mean, they gotta be looking around like, like you said, We just lost all our freedoms and not a single shot was fired?
Not an explosion? Nothing?
Just a graphic on television saying panic?
What the hell? Gretchen Smith from the Code of Vets is with us.
This is the InfoWars War Room Veterans Call-In Show.
We're going to open up the phone lines in the next hour.
Gretchen, if you see, the studio here is a little smoky.
Smoke was just billowing out of my ears because I'm so angry right now.
The president is about to sign this $2 trillion stimulus bill.
And so... Look, I don't want to make this all about attacking the president.
I'm a big supporter of the president.
I know you are as well. But, I mean, he's the one signing this at the end of the day.
And if there's something going on behind the scenes that we don't know about, which there has to be, Then they're just going to have to take this flack because I'm not going to sit here idly by and just say, oh yeah, fine, two trillions in stimulus for a thousand dead?
Yeah, every time a thousand are dead.
Just print more money, just crash the economy, just cause inflation or recession.
Yeah, it's all good. Just drive us into fear and panic.
We'll give up all our freedoms. No, I'm not going to celebrate that.
And so I know you're not either.
You've been very outspoken about this.
I salute you for that. I think that your opinion carries a lot of weight considering everything you've done in the veteran community and you're not stopping, by the way.
So what are you hearing from all the veterans that you're in touch with on a daily basis?
Because you're in touch with veterans, Korean War, Iraq War, Desert Storm.
I mean, the list goes on and on.
What are you hearing?
unidentified
You know, the overwhelming majority, because I interact with thousands of veterans.
I'm all over the place, all over social media, always DMing, always interacting, just texting, going back and forth on Twitter.
The overwhelming majority are furious because we're talking about life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness.
We're talking about our God-given and the illegal rights.
We're talking about our freedoms that we have bled for.
We have lost limbs for.
We have buried our dads, our brothers, our moms.
This is serious, Owen.
We literally are at war for the soul of our nation.
This is history in the making.
What we're watching as it unfolds is our freedoms being systematically taken from us within a matter of days, again, without that one shot being fired.
Veterans are floored.
They are floored that they are in their homes being told to shelter in place.
A lot of them are saying, I'm not doing it.
I have fought for these freedoms.
I have put that uniform on.
I have my dog tags.
I am not going out like this.
I am not going to be told to stay in my home for an indeterminate amount of period of time, not feed my family, not earn a paycheck, not pay my bills.
We've got veterans that are losing jobs left and right.
I have, right now, 60 requests from today.
Veterans that are hungry.
They need food. Today alone, 60 veterans getting in contact with us saying, Gretchen, I've been laid off.
I don't have enough for food because a lot of them live paycheck to paycheck, penny to penny.
And this is just utter nonsense.
They can't believe that we are in this situation as a country.
Not just them, the veteran community, but all of us.
All Americans are in this.
We are literally fighting for our lives, our freedom, our economy, our security, and it's all up in the air.
And I'm like you, I'm a huge POTUS supporter.
I love our president.
But this is not okay.
We are all very unsettled.
We don't feel like we know what's going on.
The measures that are being taken are so extreme based on the data that we have.
And the question that veterans have are, you know, what else is there?
There's got to be more than what we're being told.
owen shroyer
And by the way, the biggest hoorah that I ever get is when I do stunts that stand up against suppression of free speech, suppression of the Second Amendment, or the other day when I rode around town and the police told me to go home and I said no.
The biggest hoorah I get specifically from older veterans is when I do stuff like that because they're like, oh, and thank God there's still people out here in America that are fighting for freedom.
They're like, you know, we went thousands of miles overseas to fight for freedom, but then we come home and we see that everybody lays down their arms.
It's like a gut blow to them.
So when they see people that are still willing to fight for freedom here in America, it inspires them a little bit.
And so, I mean, we all can inspire each other here, I think.
But I think what bothers me about what the president is doing here, claiming this is victory, signing this bill...
He seems to be, this is something he never really is getting an F in, but right now he's getting an F. He's not reading his voter base right now.
For whatever reason, he thinks his voter base is liking the stimulus bill.
He's attacking Thomas Massey on Twitter, who's saying, hey, this is a bad bill to sign.
I don't want to sign it. By the way, Thomas Massey is the man.
Who got the $4 billion mandatory national vote by mail out of the bill.
unidentified
$4 billion to vote by mail!
owen shroyer
So, I mean, and Trump is attacking this man?
I mean, this is unbelievable to me.
So, I'm just worried, why does the president think his base supports this?
It clearly does not.
I mean, I'm sorry, I just put a pull up on Twitter.
Most of my Twitter followers are Trump supporters.
75% don't support this.
What is going on?
unidentified
Every tweet that I put out about this bill and just about some of the information 11 billion dollars is going overseas to three international development mental groups.
I'm not OK with that.
Why is that? Why are we pushing our money overseas when we're in the middle of a meltdown of historic proportions?
I none of us are OK with it.
I don't understand.
And again, I keep going back to Owen and you keep referring to the still unless there's something going on that we don't know about.
I simply do not understand.
I'm educated. I'm a veteran.
I'm an American. And I don't approve of this bill.
I actually hate it.
It is totally opposite of what we need.
It's going to crush us in the future.
It's going to put a heavy burden on our kids and our grandkids and on us.
Two trillion dollars.
This is just the beginning of it.
I mean, there's trillions more ahead of us.
How are we ever going to sustain and pay for that, especially when we're not even working right now?
I mean, literally, it makes zero sense to any of us.
I am deplored by it.
I'm sick to my stomach, I'm furious, and I'm ready to rain hellfire down on D.C. for doing this to us, the American people, because right now, it looks like it's D.C. versus we, the people, and we're just sitting back and taking it.
owen shroyer
Well, that's what I'm saying. You'll get a million people to march for, like, you know, transsexual gay parade or whatever, and they'll, you know, have kids dancing in the streets and stuff.
It's like, yay, like, rah-rah, kumbaya, or we'll have a bunch of other things.
But this is like every American, like you said, hellfire on D.C., $2 trillion, our money, our future, our lineage, getting sold down the river for what?
Of a coronavirus that's killed 1,200?
They say it'll peak next week or whatever?
Like, give me a break.
Most people aren't even buying into that hysteria.
So, I mean, this is a total mismeasurement.
But let me tell you what really I think should grind our gears about this.
The average American is shut in right now.
The average American is out of work.
If you're a small business owner, you're looking at bankruptcy or selling your business or something.
If you're an employee of a small business or someone that's been shut down and you live month to month, you're looking around for answers.
But look at this from the Clinton Foundation.
As coronavirus affects more lives around the world, we all have a role to play.
See our latest programs and partners are responding to this crisis and helping us address urgent needs at the Clinton Foundation.
So the Clinton Foundation gets to grift.
The Clinton Foundation is still operating, stealing millions.
But the average American has to suffer, and this bill does nothing for them.
I really don't get it.
It really shows how complacent we are.
And maybe that's why they do this.
Like, oh, you have to stay at home.
A virus is going to kill you.
Because if America was still America, 100 million people would be marching to D.C. right now saying, do not sign this bill.
unidentified
But we don't get that. No, this is the time, this is the place when we, the people, as one, united, this is bipartisan.
My brother's an Army veteran.
He hates politics, but I tell you what, every time he votes Democrat, he is an agnostic.
He's complete opposite of me.
Guess what? He just lost his job.
He is on my side right now.
We are all on the same team, Team America.
And he doesn't understand.
He had a job for 17 years as an athletic director.
It was just There was no warning.
He was fired the same day.
No two-week notice. Nothing.
Gone. And then his second job as a substitute teacher was gone too because they shut the schools for the rest of the year.
This is happening all over the country.
This is happening to Democrats, to Republicans, to atheists, to agnostics, to Christians.
It is impacting every single one of us.
We all need to be rising up together against DC to say, what are you doing to us?
Why are you doing this to us?
We do not approve of the way you are governing right now.
This is tyrannical.
We are experiencing tyranny right now and we're not responding to it, Owen.
I don't understand it. I feel like I'm one of the only ones.
I see some other Candace Owens is out there.
Her eyes are open. There's just not many of us out there that are screaming, why?
Why are we going through these extremes for the coronavirus?
It makes no sense.
I get the fact that we have some Americans dying, but you have to look at the damage that's being done to all of us.
All 330 or 350 million of us, we're all being screwed in this shutdown.
I've never seen, this is unprecedented.
I have never seen our country shut down for anything.
owen shroyer
People are afraid. That's what you're pointing out.
Candace Owens is not afraid.
They make you say, oh, it's either go along with the coronavirus hysteria or you're responsible for people dying.
It's like, oh, you don't take cancer seriously?
It's like, what? That's what they're trying to do to us.
Gretchen, thank you so much for joining us, folks.
Code of Vets, at Code of Vets on Twitter.
Gretchen Smith is another account she has, CodeofVets.com.
Any final words, Gretchen?
unidentified
I just want to say, please consider to give Encoded Vets.
We have a 1% operational fee or cost.
We give it all back to our veterans.
We need you right now.
We have so many veterans that need food, that need rent assistance, that need transportation assistance.
We're trying to cover as many as we can.
Please help us take care of our veterans in this time of crisis.
owen shroyer
Thank you so much, Gretchen.
Code of Vets. Alright, folks, we're going to open up the phone lines when we come back.
So the average conservative is going to make fun of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for her ranting and raving about the stimulus bill.
They're going to make fun of Haley Stevens, the Democrat, with her pink gloves ranting and raving about this bill.
But the truth is they're right, folks.
So we can make fun of them, and because of AOC's nonsense and everything she's done before, people will laugh still.
But she's right. This stimulus bill is a robbery.
It's highway theft, folks.
The American taxpayer is getting screwed on this deal.
And now we've set a precedent of stimulus relief bills.
Over 1,000 people dying.
What, next, a jillion dollars now?
I mean, where does it end? And so, I think there's a problem though.
See, the problem is that we have these two women up here ranting and raving about this, but where are the Republicans?
Why are there no physical conservatives that are willing to do this?
Thomas Massey's the only one willing to stand up.
Chip Roy willing to stand for his honor.
Where are the Republicans ranting and raving about this?
Where are Republicans ranting and raving about all the things the Democrats have done for the three years since Trump has been in office?
They don't do it.
Okay? They sit here and they passively watch all of this happen.
And I will just say this, too.
And we'll get Greg's opinion on this.
You know, these two women up here ranting and raving, it's just not a good look because they're women.
And then people say this is sexist, but it's just true, folks.
Okay? It's not a ladylike thing.
It's not a womanly thing, the way that they present themselves like this.
There is fiery passion that looks good from a woman, but not when you're up here ranting and raving like a lunatic.
I'm sorry, that's a man's role.
A man is supposed to rant and rave like a lunatic.
We're the crazy people.
So it doesn't have the optical power that it would if it was a man.
It's not sexist to say it's the truth.
If it was a man up there ranting and raving like that, it would have more optical power.
Because it's these women, unless you buy into the indoctrination, women just rant and rave about everything, you accept it.
It doesn't even hold water.
Unfortunately, and so conservatives make fun of him.
But aside from the rest of their politics, Greg, what do you think?
I think these two women ranting and raving, as crazy as they may look, are right.
We shouldn't be accepting this stimulus bill.
It gives more money to refugees than American taxpayers.
greg reese
What do you think, Greg? Well, I've been buried in research all day, so I didn't even see this clip.
I just saw you talking about a hysterical woman, and I was listening to you, and then I glanced over and saw the clip of Ocasio-Cortez acting like a hysterical woman.
owen shroyer
And see, that's the problem.
I haven't seen that yet. It's funny. And that's the problem.
That's the natural response.
You know, we're not going to play this whole game of, oh, it's sexist.
It's just true, folks. It's true for women and men.
You see her ranting and raving, and you know her backstory.
You think, oh, that's just a crazy woman.
She had a point this time.
But because, you know, it's like the boy that cried wolf.
greg reese
Men are stupid and women are crazy.
I think that's fair. And we can all love each other.
owen shroyer
We're equal. No, I know.
Like, when I'm ranting and raving like a lunatic, like, okay, you're just a raging male.
Like, call it toxic masculinity.
greg reese
Whatever. The last I saw was McConnell calling out the Democrats for stalling it.
And what irritated me about that was he was just talking as if it was all political.
He wasn't mentioning the fact that they're all criminals and they're traitors and they're crooks.
And it just makes you think that this whole thing is just a setup.
Are there any patriots in Congress at all?
owen shroyer
Well, you have Thomas Massey, who wasn't going along with this bill, who pointed it out.
Trump lashed out at him for whatever reason. As pointed out by reporter Patrick Halley, if it wasn't for Massey they would have put the mandatory national vote by mail in there for four billion more dollars. Chip Roy, who represents us here, I'm proud I say I voted for Chip Roy, he stood up for Thomas Massey. So it's like maybe there's some patriots left Greg, but it's like few and far between at this point. Yeah I don't see anything that they can accomplish in Congress at all at this point.
Well, I do believe the President has now signed the bill.
We've been monitoring that.
I do believe the President has now signed the bill.
If he hasn't, he's getting ready to.
So this is happening.
Now, here's what we're going to do. We're going to open up the phone lines now.
Greg Reese in studio for the next hour.
It's the Veterans Call-In Show.
And so the line is open.

We're taking your phone calls. The lines are open.
877-789-2539.
Just let us know what state you're calling from and the branch of the military you are or were with.
Ladies and gentlemen, good news at InfoWarsStore.com.

Obviously, a lot of orders coming in.
There will be kind of an extended time period to wait to get it, but we are taking orders.
Everyone else is sold out.
We've got it in stock, but with all the orders, it will take some time, minimum two weeks, maximum probably six weeks.
Most likely, you'll get it somewhere in between, but we have the stock available.
So order your emergency food supply at Infowarsstore.com.
And while you're there, check out all the other great specials.
50% off the Real Red Pill and the Real Red Pill Plus.
I take those every morning.
We've got deals on DNA Force Plus.
30% off the Alexa Pure Breeze air filter.
This is a must-have, in my opinion, in your home or apartment.
Especially if you have pets that bring some odors with them.
The Alexa Pure Breeze will pretty much wipe that out.
I'm speaking from experience.
So it's all at InfoWareStore.com.
And by the way, I'll get to this later.
Maybe I'll get to this right now with Greg while the crew is aggregating your phone calls.
And I don't want to make a big thing of it.
We don't want to sit here and cry victim because we don't view ourselves that way.
But I think there is a level of justifiable...
Rage and frustration, because I was just thinking about it the other day.
I don't even know what made me think about this, but if InfoWars was still allowed on all the social media outlets, specifically I'll just talk about YouTube, we would be far and beyond number one.
It wouldn't even be close.
We would be totally dominating, specifically right now.
Anytime there's a big news story, our YouTube channel became number one for politics.
Number one, like all of our stuff that we put out.
It was just number one.
With the massive content, well, they've banned us from all that, and so we've taken a major hit.
I don't need to go into the details, but I mean, I don't even know how to properly portray what I'm thinking.
I don't know how to properly say it, Greg.
It's just like, we're number one.
We dominated. We were the best.
And so they had to take us off and then pretend like we don't exist, even though this is still the populist voice.
This is still the American Revolution here.
We're still fighting.
They're just trying to pretend like we don't exist, pretend like we aren't kicking their ass.
greg reese
Yeah, and they...
You know, what's interesting about the shutdown, too, is as they tell everyone to stay at home inside, they control social media.
And like our audience knows, our audience and you and our crew have been waging war in the 3D realm, you know, going to them.
You know, Alex Jones has been going to them.
And so it's almost like the geek tyrant's wet dream is to just tell us all to stay at home so that they can control the internet.
And they can just control the entire story then.
owen shroyer
Yeah, it's really easy to control the digital world.
It's really easy to censor the digital realm.
It's a little harder to do that in the physical realm.
So yeah, just shut down the physical world.
Force everybody onto the internet.
And then they've already done all the censorship now.
Yeah. So it's like now most people won't even notice, you know, about the censorship because they're just maybe getting involved in here now because they can't even leave their house.
greg reese
And when they took InfoWars off of the internet, before they took InfoWars off the internet, I remember InfoWars was hugely popular even with people that thought conspiracy theorists were dangerous.
Even those people would enjoy Alex Jones because it was just part of American pop culture.
It was allowed.
And now... What we've learned with this coronavirus thing, people do exactly what they're told.
And so when they were told Alex Jones is not good and you shouldn't watch him, they just listened.
They just said, okay, he's bad now.
Same thing with stay home, trust us, everything's going to be fine.
Just do what we, you know, you're going to lose your job and stay at home and not pay your rent.
But don't worry about it, you know, and everyone just goes along with it.
owen shroyer
I mean, we've accepted our role as the Dark Knight, but I'll be honest, man.
I'll be honest. There is frustration for myself and for the crew, and I think that's what it is, too, because InfoWars is a movement.
It's millions of us.
And so for them to just wipe us out and act like we don't exist, it's frustrating, man.
I wish for the crew, for the audience, for everybody that we could still be on YouTube and these platforms dominating them, saying, hey, look at your little CNN channel or whatever over here.
Nobody watches. We have millions of views every day.
And it's just like, that's like waving the flag of victory.
You know what I'm saying? That's like, see, we are winning.
You aren't alone. And they totally removed our ability to do that.
And that's what frustrates me.
It's like, I want the InfoWars audience to know you're number one.
I want you to know you are the majority.
You are the populist. I want the crew to know that this is the best crew, that we are number one.
And we just have to sit here like the Dark Knight and just take being demonized and erased.
But yes, folks, the stories at InfoWars.com just broke.
Because we've been, you know, playing whack-a-mole with these people.
One of the last places, one of the last apps that we had allowed on the Play Store has just been banned.
Has just been banned.
It was, you know, a number one app, five-star rated, so they had to ban it.
Adam Salazar has the story at Infowars.com.
But this is what we've had to endure, Greg.
So we've got four minutes left here.
Let's get into what you were hearing from Steve Bannon and his proposal for this shutdown.
greg reese
Yeah. Yeah, I thought it was very interesting, and he's been going around the media circuit talking about it, and it's a simple solution that he's suggesting, and he's using the same language he's saying, drop the hammer.
He's saying that he learned all this from Trump.
He says Trump was his best teacher, and he says Trump taught him that...
If an unexpected crisis comes, or I can't remember exactly how he put it, but it's worth looking into to check out Bannon's own words, that basically if a crisis comes along, just drop the hammer on it, solve the problem, and worry about dealing with the repercussions later.
And so his suggestion is that we shut down the entire country for two months, And that the Federal Reserve Bank prints out trillions of dollars that goes directly to the people and smaller businesses, basically making all the people happy.
And then he says, we'll deal with the repercussions of all this later once we kill the virus.
And every time he says this, he's saying it with his usual smirk and maybe even a little extra Irish twinkle in his eye.
But the way I'm seeing it now is what he's suggesting is, is to play by the enemy's rules and shut everything down.
That's what they want to do.
Because if Trump was to not, if Trump opens everything up, business as usual, that might seem like a victory, but it also makes him very vulnerable.
If the enemy's willing to unleash a bioweapon, then certainly they'd be willing to create more casualties once Trump does that and blame it on him.
And that could be absolutely fatal to the Trump presidency if he reopens this up and it turns out to be a catastrophe.
However, Bannon's suggestion is we just go along with what they're saying, shut it all down for two months.
That kind of leaves them stymied.
And printing the trillions of dollars out of the Federal Reserve Bank will make all the people happy, at least happier through all this.
And it could possibly break the Federal Reserve Bank, which could be what he's talking about dealing with later, which also is a plus.
So... Maybe Steve Bannon is wargaming this whole thing in an interesting way.
owen shroyer
Well, if that's the measurement to break the Federal Reserve Banking System, then that's one thing.
But, I mean, we haven't been told that.
So I can't take that at face value.
But I will say, my fear is if you go with a plan like that, there's no coming back.
There's just, there's no coming back and it just creates a precedent.
And I just don't know how America recovers from that soul of America, the spirit of freedom, the economy, I just don't see how you ever come out of that.
And that also, when you take that approach, if you're the president and you're saying, oh, well, my enemies can do this if I do that and I can do this, well, then you're basically letting them steer you whatever direction they want.
So it's like, oh, we want you to be afraid we're going to release a bioweapon, so go along with the shutdown.
Well, what they really want is the shutdown.
greg reese
I think you've got to write the first thing you said, because I think...
I think Bannon wants a revolution, and I'm not saying that's necessarily a terrible idea.
There's a lot of people that I think want one.
It's like the go-for-broke method. I think that's his strategy.
This is the way to spark the revolution, and in the meantime, pad everyone's pockets and, I don't know, buy some time.
owen shroyer
I don't know. They could have padded their pockets with this $2.2 trillion stimulus.
They didn't. They padded their own pockets.
They pork-barreled it.
I mean, good lord.
Refugees getting more money than the American taxpayers.
You can't believe this, but it's all true, ladies and gentlemen.
So again, though, we're going to take your calls when we come back.
We got veterans called in. If you want to call in, 877-789-2539.
It's a veterans call-in show.
Last Friday of every month here on The War Room.
Lines are open, 877-789-2539.
Do you support this stimulus bill or not?
Welcome back into the InfoWars War Room, brought to you by InfoWarsStore.com.
Greg Reese is in studio with me.
By the way, some of the most powerful reports that you can find are done by Greg Reese.
Go check out the Greg Reese channel at band.video.
Share those with your friends and family, folks.
Really amazing work.
And actually, we're about to start taking calls, but...
Again, folks, you know they are trying to keep Infowars from accessing, or you from accessing Infowars.
They're pulling out all the stops.
They banned us off all the social media.
You can't even share our links on some of the social media.
They're removing any ability for us to get onto your cell phone.
They're trying to stop us from even being able to have an app.
And so stories at Infowars.com, Google bans Infowars app from Play Store.
You're saying, oh, well, they've already done that.
Well, we build new ones.
We launch new names, new platforms, and they just ban anything we do.
We're going to hear from Alex in the last segment of this hour response to this.
So we're going to hear from Alex last segment about the latest censorship.
But Greg, you were actually talking about We're good to go.
greg reese
It was interesting because within the first few days where we felt like there was this lockdown thing coming, then all of a sudden for one day, if you googled Alex Jones, then you would get Infowars at the very top.
That lasted maybe 24 hours, I think.
A few days after that, I was blocked out of Twitter.
And then I got a second strike on YouTube for a My Corona video, which is interesting because the coronavirus videos I have on there that are kind of scary, they left up.
owen shroyer
And heart-hitting news reports stay up.
greg reese
Right. And this was a sort of a light, you know, a satire joke on kind of making fun of it all.
And they took that down for violent images.
And the same exact images I used in that, I used...
In my other videos. In fact, I did it because I was just trying to crank it out.
owen shroyer
Which are just used... Everyone's using them.
greg reese
Yeah, everyone's using them. And so now I'm just down to Facebook, and my YouTube channel will probably be turned on in a few days, but I'm not going to...
I mean, I'm just going to... I imagine they're going to be deleting it in a...
A matter of weeks, if less.
I mean, it seems like they're coming at us.
Oh, and then also, right at that same time when Google seemed normal for a while, YouTube put out that notice saying, from now on, we're going to delete videos that do not violate our terms of service or whatever.
So, they're just letting us know.
owen shroyer
Yeah, there was that weird period there, but you can always find Greg Reese's videos at band.video, folks.
So, do not be afraid.
And again, we'll hear from Alex Jones on the latest wave of censorship in the last segment about Producer Scott was just breaking some of this down.
They've put some shadow funding into their own bankrolls here in the Senate and into the House.
And so basically they just have these...
Well, I can't even remember everything.
But basically they just have these bank accounts now essentially that they'll just use for whatever they want.
It's not earmarked for anything.
They claim it's earmarked for, you know, an emergency response or whatever, but they'll do whatever they want.
That's just special interest pork barreling.
It's really unbelievable we're allowing this to happen, quite frankly.
So, we're going to get your response.
Let's go out to the phone lines now.
Again, the Veterans Call-In Show we do the last Friday of every month.
We take calls from the veterans.
We've got a lot of great veterans on the line.
I want to know, what do you think about this coronavirus relief stimulus bill?
Good? No good? Do you like that the president signed it today as claiming it a victory or not?
Greg Reese in studio with us.
Let's go to Stephen Air Force in Florida.
unidentified
Go ahead, Stephen. Yeah, hey, Owen.
stephen in florida
All right, first of all, I think maybe we need to rename this thing a panic-demic.
owen shroyer
I coined that term.
I'll challenge anybody to find somebody who said panic-demic before I did.
stephen in florida
Yeah, and I didn't hear that you did, so I'm not trying to plagiarize you.
owen shroyer
No, it's all good. Hey, I don't mind it.
Look, people steal bits from each other all the time.
It's all good, but it is a panic-demic.
stephen in florida
Right. Now, I have a different take on this whole situation.
First of all, let me say this. I've got Fox News on right now.
From a natural standpoint, I believe what Trump has now done is signed our death certificate with this stimulus.
Because government has never, ever been a provider of the people.
They have always been a taker, an oppressor, an enslaver.
That's historic. And that's biblical as well.
And this is the main thing I wanted to get to, Owen.
And a lot of people disagree with me on this.
You may, Alex may, but I don't care.
I'm going to say this. This is obviously a man-made plague.
But it is a, as far as our country is concerned, yes, it's around the world.
It is a God- Sent judgment.
The reason being because this nation has turned its back on Jesus Christ and doesn't want what he has to offer us.
They don't want the Bible.
I mean, I could go on and on about all the things, and I'm not downing America.
I'm an American. But what I'm saying is that God says pride goeth before destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall.
And I don't care whether you're conservative or liberal, Republican, Democrat, whether you're fighting against the New World Order or on board with it.
We're in deep trouble spiritually because we've made God our enemy because we've played as God's enemy.
And so we're going to now suffer the consequences.
God would turn this around in our faith.
Think about this. We've had hearing upon hearing and upon hearing of all these criminals.
Here Jeffrey Epstein was going to blow the whistle on the Clinton.
And again, they've literally gotten away with murder.
Why is Hillary walking the street and Bill the psychopathic rapist?
Why are all these people that are criminals getting away with what they're doing?
And here's the answer, biblically.
God has allowed us to fall into the hands of our enemies, the deep state, which is not so deep, they're shallow, but spiritually, but they have taken over along with the Chai Kams.
Why?
Because we've lost the protective hand of Almighty God.
And when it goes back to, and this is the main thing, the fake Christianity, the apostate Christianity that accepted the perversion of God's word from England in 1901.
That preceded the Federal Reserve Act and all the other things that have taken place since then.
That's where our problems are.
When we accepted the perversion of God's Word in the revised version, called the American Standard Version, God promises a curse to those who mess with His Word.
And ever since then, I can trace everything back to that.
We've gone downhill And now we're at a point where people are flaunting and they're saying it's party time and we're just going to get through this.
Shame on Fox for saying stuff.
Nobody's reporting this as a bioweapon.
Again, spiritually, that's what we need to deal with.
We're in trouble with Almighty God, and we need to repent, and we need Jesus Christ because He's our answer.
And Christians out there are saying, telling me, well, we just need to trust God, and God's got it.
Okay, but are you using the brain God gave you and the resources to prepare?
owen shroyer
Yeah, or the voice or the legs or the arms.
Exactly. Great, powerful call there from Stephen in the Air Force in Florida.
Thank you so much. Greg, you wanted to respond to that.
greg reese
Yeah, well, you're not alone, and it's not just Christians that feel that way.
I've been in touch with a lot of people I met in my research with Iran in the Restart Movement, and they're Sufi.
They don't practice Islam, they practice Sufism, which is very, in my opinion, very similar to Christianity, has very similar values.
And they're 100% on what you're saying.
I mean, 100% across the board, the Restart Movement believes that this is a divine intervention by God to, exactly what you're saying, to cleanse the world of evil.
And I will say that, I mean, I can see the divine nature in this.
I already can see how certain things could be better in our world as a result of this.
At the very minimum, it's forcing everyone to look at the problems of how fragile and ridiculous our comfortable society is.
And I feel in my heart like we're experiencing something auspicious and divine.
Maybe I'm an optimist.
owen shroyer
Well, there's no doubt it's all part of divine creation.
Problem is, you know, are we going to fly or are we going to sink?
Greg Reese in studio with us on the Veterans Call-In Show.
Owen Schroer, your host. This is the InfoWars War Room, brought to you by InfoWarsStore.com.
Another wave of censorship, another attack.
On InfoWars and free speech, Alex Jones has a big announcement in the next segment.
A response to the latest wave of censorship, folks.
Alex Jones coming up in the next segment.
But again, big thanks and salute to this audience.
We have beat, thus far, the censorship.
We've stayed on air, thanks to your support, at InfoWarsStore.com.
Let's go back out to the phone lines now.
It's Veterans Call-In Day. We're hearing from veterans.
Brian, a Marine, is on the line.
Greg, a Marine himself, ex-Marine.
Brian in California.
unidentified
Go ahead. How you doing, Owen?
Good. This is Brian from California.
Proud boy, USA. I'd just like to say hi to Diana.
So, this stimulus package from the chatter I've been getting online, I think it says that basically if you sign it and you take the check, Well, Well, and they're trying to slip it all into this stimulus bill.
owen shroyer
I just don't understand what happened to freedom of choice.
Like they say, oh, you know, the pro-choice movement, your body, your choice, but then vaccines, no.
If you want to go out on the streets during a pandemic, no.
If you want to carry a firearm, no.
If you want to have free speech, no.
So it's, you know, freedom of choice when you want to kill your baby, but everything else, no freedom of choice at all.
unidentified
That's correct.
I think basically Americans have to decide whether they want 80,000 people dead from this virus or unfortunately, no.
Unfortunately, as Mike Adams has said, I mean, he said his motto said about 80 million people are going to die.
Well, that's how many people are going to die if we go into a worldwide global depression.
Make no mistake.
Because we are not set up for this anymore.
We are 5% self-sufficient instead of 50%.
We're 18% in the rural.
82% in the cities.
We're toast. What do you think about that, Greg?
owen shroyer
Thank you so much for the call, Brian.
greg reese
Yeah, I mean, we have an actual historical precedent for that.
The Bolshevik Revolution, basically.
I mean, the millions died because they were starved because they basically destroyed their world.
They destroyed their economy. That's exactly what would happen.
If we did this. I've talked to a lot of people that aren't even political and just self-reliant, responsible, confident men that I know that have said they would just love to hear Trump come out and just say something like, this is going to be hard, but we're going to get through it.
This is America and we're going to work together and we're just going to plow through it.
Soldier on, you know? That's...
That's what tells me there's something obviously going on because the results are going to be the destruction of America.
owen shroyer
Yeah, we're all kind of wondering because if we take this at face value, you can't really dice it up too much.
This is a screw job. I mean, period.
I mean, another stimulus bill?
In fact, you know, the president ran on, you know, financial stability, cutting the Fed, cutting all the government spending.
He signed moreover in stimulus, I bet, than any other president.
I don't know if anyone's done those measurements yet or written a story about it, but I would bet you that President Trump, in four years, has signed more stimulus bills, spent more money in the federal government, and increased our debt more than even Obama.
And so, I'm sorry, that's just not a victory.
I just don't get that.
I don't get that from this president.
I didn't expect it.
And so I guess a gajillion dollars is what we need next.
We'll sign a gajillion dollar stimulus bill.
That'll take care of it. All right, Bubba Chunks Army.
Bubba Chunks Army in Texas.
unidentified
Go ahead. Yes, he's got to veto this bill.
owen shroyer
I believe it's too late.
unidentified
I believe he just signed it. He can sign it and veto it.
Doesn't he have to sign it?
Or if he doesn't sign it and it goes 10 days, correct?
Then it's in law? I think it's either sign it or veto it.
owen shroyer
I don't know. But he shows no signs of vetoing this.
unidentified
He's not going to do it. Yeah, I'm seeing that.
So, yeah, we're screwed.
It's just my kid, I've got an 11-year-old.
He's a high-end baseball player, plays all over the country.
He's an MMA fighter.
And he's sitting at home right now because everybody's scared.
owen shroyer
Can't even go out and play ball.
unidentified
Oh, we still do.
I mean, me and him do.
The point being is...
And then the other thing is the Cargill thing today.
With his situation, what are these cops thinking?
They're just following their master's orders?
Well, there's some history there called World War II. I'm just doing my job, boss.
Well, what's going to happen when a 50-plus-year-old white male vet finally just has...
Gets tired of it, of getting harassed, and blows away a cop.
owen shroyer
That sucks. Well, we've already had people die during, you know, gun confiscation raids.
Individuals. This has already happened.
People have been shot during this.
And so if that continues, of course there's going to be people getting shot.
unidentified
And it sucks, because what are these cops thinking?
And I understand...
Well, you know what?
owen shroyer
This is actually the invisible enemy, I think, more than the coronavirus.
Thank you so much for that call, Bubba.
Greg, I mean, I don't even know how to properly word this, but it's like, When I stood up in front of Jerry Nadler and said he was committing treason, I know for a fact there were members of that committee that agree with me.
I know for a fact there were other representatives in the crowd that agree with me and shook my hand.
I know that there were just patrons in the crowd that day that agree with me.
How many of them stood up?
How many of them stood up for my free speech?
How many of them stood up and said, no, he's right?
How many of them stood up and said, don't kick that man out, he's right?
None of them. Why?
Why are Americans living in such fear, Greg?
I don't understand this. We all know what's going on.
It's like the caller said, like, these police know that half the police probably don't even want to do what they're being told to do right now.
So why? Why is everyone just going along with this?
What is this weird psychological barrier or whatever that we have?
greg reese
The only answer I got when I look at the whole picture is that we are at war and that we've been at war for a while and these members of Congress have no choice.
They are following the orders of their masters and they know that this is wartime.
They know that if they do not obey their masters, they face death.
And that's the only explanation I have.
And it's been a very interesting war so far in the fact that it's, for the most part, been hidden from the American public and The public of all nations.
owen shroyer
But it's the same thing. It's like, I'm out there protesting.
I'm not even protesting. I'm holding up a sign at the Capitol building.
I get arrested and sent to jail.
Democrats come out there with 30 people in a protest and make a whole scene.
Not a single one gets arrested.
All the police that arrest me know that.
But they get orders, and so they arrest Schroyer, and they let the rest of them go away.
It's just, I can't even believe that we allow this.
And they know what they're doing is wrong.
So it's like what the caller said. It's like, why are we doing this?
Why do we go along with this when we know it's wrong?
Oh, I'm just doing my job.
Yeah, that's not going to fly. That's not going to fly.
greg reese
The only hope I see is on a state level, there seems to be a divide.
It doesn't seem to be like everyone's all in.
It seems like we're seeing most of this out of the...
The usual suspects.
You know, we're seeing out of the liberal cities, New York City, California, and all across the board.
If you look at the map of the world, it seems like all the new world order strongholds are playing this game of shut everything down.
And everyone else doesn't seem to be affected.
owen shroyer
Alright, we're going to take more calls on their side.
I want to correct something. Alex Jones will be joining us in the last segment today.
The last segment, not the next segment.
I apologize. It's the last segment.
So again, folks, the stories at Infowars.com.
Google bans Infowars app from Play Store and you say, no, that already happened.
Folks, we made more apps.
We made banned out video. We found out other ways to get on your cell phone.
They're literally just blocking them all.
They're just blocking anything and anything and everything InfoWars that's ever been on the internet from getting to your phone to your household.
So we still got InfoWars.com, NewsWars.com, Band.Video.
But to make that ease of access with apps and other things, they're just blocking it all.
And so Alex is going to make a statement on that in the final segment of today's show.
But really, I mean, again, you can't measure this, folks.
I mean, we should be able to sue Google for a billion dollars, honestly.
I mean, this is just ridiculous, the amount of censorship that we've put up with.
And to sit here and just get banned from all the social media where they let a toilet-licking contest happen.
It's like, oh, you want to lick toilets and have a trend.
Like, that's cool, but if you're Infowars and want to be the most hard-hitting, number one news network on the internet, well, no, you're not allowed to exist.
You like America. We're going to have to go ahead and ban you.
All right, we're going to hear from Alex Jones on the latest wave of censorship.
Yes, they're censoring us again, folks.
They don't want us to even exist on your phone.
They're trying to ban anything Infowars from even getting onto your phone.
It's wild. Alex Jones has an update on that coming up.
First, though, Greg, you kind of wanted to do a little preliminary to that as far as how really this censorship against Infowars is an act of war.
greg reese
Absolutely. When we think of war, we're the common man.
When we think of war, I think we often think of, you know, devastation, World War I, World War II, the history books, you know, a country pissed off another country and things escalated.
Next thing you know, you got to send your children off to die.
That, I would say, from what we all know now, I would say that is more of a mass sacrifice, some type of sick bloodsport for the elites.
But real war, and all through history, can be better understood if you Google Dimefil, D-I-M-E-F-I-L, and you'll get a brief education.
It's basically war in the shadows.
And so this is a NATO document.
It's pretty simple. And basically, in order to be a superpower, you have to maintain superiority in different areas.
You need to maintain superior power in diplomatic instruments, information instruments, military and economic.
That is historical.
Now added to that is energy and technology.
These are the areas that America has to remain superior in to remain a superpower.
And so throughout history, the way war is really fought over dominance to become the superpower and the way you dominate another country is by chiseling away at these different aspects.
And that is how you gain victory.
If you can actually just take away one of these aspects and yourself gain superiority in all of them, Then I would imagine there is some type of international council that regulates this.
And the heads of the banking families know better than I do who those people are.
But as the common man, we can see this happening in our lives, especially at Infowars, information instruments of power.
Like you said earlier, before we were taken off, we were the number one app.
unidentified
Our downloads were dominating the internet.
greg reese
We were getting our information out there.
And our information, I don't know anyone else who tells it like it is like we do.
I mean, we don't hold anything back.
We go dark because the enemy is very dark.
We're fighting against elements of evil.
And so right now we're being continuously attacked by the enemy in this war because our instrument of power and the information instruments is dominating everyone in America.
owen shroyer
Well, and really what happened in 2016 in the election and then in 2018 when they censored us is that we were growing exponentially in the fact that We understood how to break into the zeitgeist and be on the cutting edge of trends, right? So we knew how to file reports, do videos to make sure that the information gets out there on Facebook or Twitter, on YouTube.
And so people search the viral stuff or the keywords and our videos would always pop up because we had the trending videos we were on at first.
We had the most views. And so then they were able to spread like wildfire because other people would share them to their friends and family or people who hadn't heard of InfoWars or just wanted to share this new information.
So they basically kneecapped us there.
And so, yeah, InfoWars is the name, the brand, the face, whatever, but that's just free speech.
That's just information.
It could be any name or face, and it has been.
But when you take down the mothership, which is what they would view it as, The information mothership firing information, you know, rockets out there.
That at least in their information war can kind of take that out.
It's like they know we're still firing away.
They know that the info war is still going on, but they figure it, oh, the mothership existing in the mainstream, we can't have that.
We'll kind of stymie them that way.
So we still have banned out video, but...
It's literally an act of war.
greg reese
Absolutely. And if you look at this list, the instruments of power, the diplomatic instruments of power.
We were just talking about Congress.
Clearly, they have already dominated America with the diplomatic instruments of power.
Information instruments of power, they probably thought they had that covered because the mainstream media is absolutely controlled.
But our audience made it possible that we actually challenged that, which is absolutely amazing.
owen shroyer
And I really think, genuinely, they never expected Facebook or Twitter or YouTube to become these center focal points of political information.
I really don't think they ever expected that.
And so once it kind of became that, they were like, oh, well, this is good for our traffic.
Then once Infowars got so popular, they realized, wait a second, we can't have this.
We can't have political news here.
unidentified
We have to kick them off. Absolutely.
owen shroyer
All right, let's take another phone call here.
unidentified
Let's go to Joe.
owen shroyer
Joe is in the Army in Wisconsin.
unidentified
Go ahead, Joe. Hello, Owen and Greg.
Thank God for veterans and thank veterans for our country.
I'm a little worried about where this whole bill is going because they can Christmas tree everything in there and you don't know what's going to be in there.
They could stick a poison pill in there and it'll just turn lights out tomorrow.
I'm thinking that we, the people, need to come to each other's aid.
I think they said something during the Civil War that was kind of like that, not the Civil War, the Revolutionary War, but they had mutual aid societies and mutual survival groups that came together as a group, would check up on each other.
And we have a saying in the Army, know your weaknesses and the weaknesses of those under you.
Those are the hallmarks of a leader.
And as far as Trump goes, he can't really rely on any of the people under him.
So what we need to do is to rebuild a society where we can rely on one another without exactly trusting one another.
I mean, we could war game this out a little bit.
Like, have five people...
I'm going to go to the DNC event this summer.
So I would like...
Five people to keep track of me.
If I don't hear from you or you don't hear from me, there better be some phone calls going out to the sheriff's department saying, hey, are you detaining this guy?
I know this has happened to you, Owen.
I mean, it's a wrong thing to happen.
I mean, but I got your back.
That was one thing that we made sure of in the Army.
When we got your back, you got ours.
So I'll call to all the patriots.
I'd love to start a group like that.
You don't have to worry. People are going to infiltrate.
But we got each other's backs.
I mean, it's one of those, I got your back, you got mine.
greg reese
Antifa does that. I mean, we've seen Antifa do that.
They're organized. As unintimidating and moronic as they are, they're at least organized.
owen shroyer
And they have the funding, too.
And so I just...
I agree with you, Joe, and we know that they've tried to intimidate people from doing that before.
Like you said, they infiltrate, they arrest Schaefer Cox.
I mean, so I just don't know how we actually roll something like that out and in practice in today's society.
unidentified
For J.T. Coyote, I know they set him up and he fell pretty hard, but I did what I could.
I gave the guy a blog.
I let him have everything roll and...
For like a year and a half, he had his say.
I mean, even letting people know, I'm alright.
Going out to the Bundy Ranch, I know that David Knight went out there and did podcasts daily.
I mean, kudos to David for doing that.
I mean, he's taken some hits too.
I mean, he had a heart attack and he wanted to go right back into the field.
Just, no guy, you gotta sit down for a little while.
owen shroyer
But what I'm saying is we need to be a support network for each other without having Or it's almost like we just need to have this confidence knowing that we're in this together, you know?
Like, that's what I was saying earlier.
It's like, when I stand up in front of these, you know, Democrats committing treason and say something, it's like, I don't want to be an island.
I don't want to be the lone man in there.
I ended up being that way, but that's what it is.
It's like, yeah, maybe organization is the answer.
Just practically, people just...
I don't know, man. I've tried to do it before.
You know how people are in the modern society.
It's just hard to organize anything if you have anything else to do.
Joe, thank you so much for the call.
Greg, final comments before you sign off?
greg reese
To comment on what Joe is saying, the only way we win this, in my purview, the only way we win this to where the people actually win is if the people...
Start waking up and come together and realize that this whole time for these past three years we're actually fighting for the same thing and we've just been pinned against each other.
That's what people call the Great Awakening.
That would be a miracle because as far as I know that has never happened in all of recorded history.
In all of recorded history we've been slaves and serfs.
It's only been for the past couple hundred years where we've We have some freedoms.
Most importantly, we have the freedom of speech and the freedom of the gun, in my opinion, and they're protected by God.
That's probably the most brilliant thing that's ever happened.
But for the most part, we've still been slaves to the banks.
owen shroyer
Well, that's the other thing about America.
It really is a miracle of freedom.
It really is a miracle, this experiment that started called self-government and independence that we called America.
And it's just we've gotten so far from it, wittingly, unwittingly, by fiat or design or not.
It's just time to recognize that and get back to independence and self-government.
greg reese
And take it even further, I think.
I think our founding fathers...
I think God was working through them.
I don't even think they realized what they gave us.
I think now is the opportunity to take the little that they gave us and build something better.
owen shroyer
Self-government.
Self-government.
It's a foreign concept here in the West all of a sudden, but that's what it is we're all seeking.
Greg Reese, follow him at gregreece on band.video.
Alright, we're in the third hour of the InfoWars War Room Veterans Call-In Special.
Tim Reams is now with me.
You can follow his reporting at ban.video as well.
We're going to get into some of the stuff that's going on with the stimulus bill and the VA coming up here and we'll continue to take your calls.
But just in general, Tim, what have you seen in America over the last month?
In response to the coronavirus outbreak, people sheltering in place, giving up all their freedoms.
There have been some deaths, but 1,000 dead.
Now we have a $2 trillion stimulus package.
The economy shut down. Just in a general perspective of this, what's going through your mind when you see all this happening?
tim reames
I'd probably say a little bit of mass hysteria on some type of level.
You see a lot of people fear.
Fear of the unknown for a lot of people is what it is.
Luckily for us in the military, we're able to get a lot of that in training, kind of work through it type thing.
But as far as the United States is going right now, or maybe even the rest of the world, you see a lot of fear going.
And then you see a lot of people online trying to feed or fuel that fear.
And that's kind of some of the stuff that I try to stay away from.
owen shroyer
Well, and that was one of the things...
I was...
I can't take a vacation.
I'm, like, dying here.
Cabin fever. Like, burnout zone.
Trying to be focused here without taking a vacation.
But I was... I had vacation schedules.
I had to cancel them all because of this.
But I was talking to veterans.
And they were, like, the loudest voice.
Like, dude, take your vacation.
You got nothing to be afraid of it.
Because you guys go to countries.
I mean, you've seen countries ravaged by everything.
Disease, war, poverty.
And so it's like... We still live pretty good here in America.
I mean, yeah, they're trying to crash the economy and shut it down right now.
But overall, it's like still probably the best standard of living when you consider we have 300 plus million people here.
And so they're the ones like, dude, you got nothing to be afraid.
You're not going to the mountains of Afghanistan.
You're not going into Iran, waving an American flag.
You know, you're fine. But now they just shut everything down.
tim reames
So you can't even go anywhere. Yeah, that's, you know, as far as being in the military, you know, we kind of get that is where we just kind of go around just, you know what, whatever.
owen shroyer
Like you've seen enough and lived through it.
And doesn't that kind of just ground you to not be so fearful all the time?
tim reames
It does for us, for veterans.
We kind of have that. We're actually fortunate in that area.
But it also kind of brings things out that you would like people to have a better perspective of.
I mean, in the United States, we live in a bubble.
I mean, we're protected. All the protections that we have, the law enforcement, military.
A lot of countries out there don't have that, what we have.
The freedom of speech, you know, the Second Amendment, all that stuff.
You know, my unit, we got a medal in Africa for feeding starving children.
And according to the World Health Organization, on any given day, approximately 15,000 kids ages 5 and under die of starvation.
But you don't really hear about that.
You hear about the, what are we at, like 1,000 here in the U.S. or however many thousands worldwide dying of this coronavirus.
And I mean, so for me, I'm just like, well, there's a whole lot more out there that I'd be worried about versus catching a cough.
Now, as tragic as it is for those that have died or have been, you know, sick, I wouldn't say go around licking the tables and, you know, the microphones or the doorknobs and stuff, but I'm not going to sit in my house.
I just got back from D.C. two days ago, drove to Houston today.
Still flying? Still flying.
Oh, it's great. I mean, there was 10 people.
owen shroyer
Oh, wide open. Oh, it was.
tim reames
Cheap, too? Yeah, I think TSA outnumbered us two to one, and I just walked right through.
owen shroyer
It's like you and the flight marshal or whatever.
tim reames
Yeah, you know, I don't even think the pilots shut the door.
I mean, what's going to happen?
owen shroyer
Yeah, just kind of like an open, open flight.
But, you know, I think that's another thing, too.
It's like once you go and serve in the military, wherever you get stationed, the veil or the power of the media on your mind kind of goes away, too.
Because how many times do you see them report something happening overseas and you're like, wait a second.
tim reames
That's not how it happened. No, absolutely.
When I was overseas, I would go to work, I would do everything that I had to do, and then when I came home, I actually would have to read up on what was going on in the U.S. because I wasn't worried about that.
Spending time in Africa and Iraq and Afghanistan, that's what you're worried about that day-to-day.
It's not, hey, am I going to catch a cough or do I have to quarantine myself?
It's going to, hey, am I going to get shot today as my buddy?
Am I going to be able to stop the bleeding and all that stuff?
owen shroyer
Not coughing. By the way, They're trying to attack Trump right now because the military is not releasing coronavirus things.
Duh! You want China to know how many people in the military are sick?
Are these people nuts?
We are in the final hour of the Veterans Call-In Show.
Great veterans are still on the line.
We're going to get you on the air shortly.
Tim Reams in studio with me.
He's doing some reporting of his own.
You can see that at band.video.
I have a question for Tim.
And we are briefly just discussing this in the break, and I'm sure other veterans will weigh in on this as well.
But, you know, I mainly hear this from older veterans who kind of, you know, see millennials that are, you know, kind of weak and give up freedoms or whatever.
You do see it from people that went to Iraq or Afghanistan more recently, but I guess they're not as vocal or maybe as bitter, maybe is right.
I don't know what the word is, but it's the notion that, hey, I went overseas to fight for your freedoms.
People have died for your freedoms.
And they put it all on the line, going overseas, flying around the world.
And then they get back and they are seeing Americans being stripped of their freedoms.
Americans not fighting for their freedoms at home.
I know for a lot of veterans, this is kind of very demoralizing.
Like, very. It can even lead to a lot of psychological distress.
So, what do you think about that?
What goes through your mind when you see this?
To me, this is the biggest... Stripping of our freedoms I've ever seen in my life.
To me, this is the biggest egregious stimulus bill I've ever seen in my life.
I don't know how it gets worse than this, but it will.
So, you know, what is that mindset of, hey, where is it at?
Hey, we went overseas, fought for all this, and like you were saying, now, you know, if you want to host a wedding at your house with all your family, 20, 30 people, whatever, you'll face a fine.
You can't leave your house.
You can't go to your favorite bar.
I mean, where is that whole notion of I went overseas to fight and die for freedoms, and now I don't even have them in America.
tim reames
Well, for me, it's a little bit of anger right off the bat because it is just that, you know, I went overseas and put my life on the line.
Now you're telling me I have to stay at home?
owen shroyer
Because you may get a cough?
tim reames
Yeah, exactly. I might get a cough, which a lot of us had over there anyway, you know?
And so for me, I'm just not going to stay home.
I know a lot of people get upset about that, but when you do put it into that perspective of, I've been to all these different countries, and now you're telling me here in Central Texas, I have to stay in my house, and then if I want to go for a walk or take my dog for a walk or a jog or spend time with family that I can't do it if there's a certain amount of people because I'm going to get a ticket, well... That's probably not going to go over well, you know?
And it's one of those things where why am I getting a ticket for leaving my house?
Or, you know, social distancing.
This is the craziest thing I've ever heard of.
I never would have thought I would have put on a uniform, fought overseas.
You know, whatever happened overseas happened overseas, and then I come home, and now I have to stay social distance myself at the grocery store, which there's a line to get in, and I have to wait for so many people to come out.
And the whole thing is just crazy, in my opinion.
owen shroyer
Well, and it's like, hey, go risk your life overseas.
You can get hit by an IED. You can get shot.
You can get all kinds of different factors of risk when you do that.
And now you come home and the risk factor of getting a coronavirus is like.1, maybe.01%, and then the percentage of dying after that is another.1%, and you're sacrificing all your freedoms now that you went overseas, could have died for, over a.001% that you may get sick?
tim reames
It doesn't add up. It's the fact that they're almost making us stay home.
And, you know, you can go to the CDC or whatever website you want and just literally look at the numbers.
I mean, I think CDC in the U.S. say about 40,000, 45,000 people a year die from car accidents.
But this small, minute number worldwide is what's keeping me at home.
And that, to me, I just...
I'm sorry, but that number for me is not big enough to actually stay at home.
So, you know, and it's great because I just ran my errands today.
No traffic? No traffic.
I made it to Houston back maybe like an hour and a half, two hours.
That's nice. Yeah, you know, I've been running errands, dropping clothes off at the laundromat, you know, no line, in and out.
My stuff usually gets dropped off same day.
I mean, it's for me, if you're traveling, now is definitely probably the best time, especially with the airports, like I had mentioned earlier.
owen shroyer
Oh, it's so cheap, too.
tim reames
First class, pretty much. I mean, nobody was on the plane.
owen shroyer
I just wish, like I said, I wish if you, you know, traveled, you could actually go enjoy wherever it is you're going to.
If you're not, if you don't have duties to fulfill, you're just kind of like, everything's locked down, shut down, you can't even do anything.
You know, go eat at a restaurant or have a drink at a bar or whatever, go to a park.
They just have it all shut down.
It's just crazy to me. Again, the fears, again, you risk way more going overseas into these countries than you do walking out of your house with the potential of getting a virus.
Yet they're stripping us of all of our freedoms.
Robbing us blind with the stimulus bill.
And you know, here's the other thing too. If there's something, because everybody seems to think there's something else going on, right?
tim reames
Because it just doesn't add up. It feels that way.
Because if, and again, like I'm a numbers person, I like to look at the numbers, but if you look at the numbers and you're like, we're seriously being cooped up at home for this, to me is just ridiculous.
owen shroyer
So it's like if they know that there's something else with this, it's like why do you think 80,000 people are going to die next week?
What do you know about this virus?
Is it because you know it's a biological weapon and then you're not telling us that?
Well, why is that? So there's a lot of questions here.
tim reames
Well, yeah, and that's the whole thing that kind of just blows my mind is you're worried about something in the future.
That's like saying, hey Owen, here in about two years you could get into a car accident and maybe lose a limb or something.
So you should probably stay at home every day.
owen shroyer
You should actually move on this stuff. Never drive a car.
tim reames
Yeah, move this stuff to your house.
Just do the show from your house.
owen shroyer
Yeah, that light, you know, one of these light fixtures could fall on my head and kill me dead.
tim reames
That's the reason why you should probably stay at your house.
owen shroyer
I should probably just not be on air.
tim reames
And just so it doesn't take you and somebody else out, make sure you social distance yourself, you know, six, seven yards away from another individual.
owen shroyer
And so I'm afraid too, what about the younger generations?
I remember growing up, you know, during 9-11 and, you know, young enough to understand what was happening, but too young to understand the, you know, long-term effects, right?
And so what happens to this younger generation now that's seeing this, now they're being told, yeah, you just shut down.
If somebody gets sick, you just shut everything down, you know, just end everything, a gajillion dollar stimulus, like that's what they're being trained to accept now.
tim reames
It is. They're ultimately being taught how to live on their knees, pretty much, instead of dying on your feet.
You know, it's kind of like fight or flight.
What do you want? What do you want to do?
And I refuse to just, you know, oh, hey, I'm having a bad day today.
I'm just going to go stay at home.
And, you know, I'm going to call the boss, work from home.
If he doesn't like it, you know, maybe I'll sue him.
I don't know. But I'm going to just, you know, curl up and just say.
owen shroyer
Yeah, right. Oh, it's a quarantine, boss.
tim reames
I'm not coming to work. Yeah, you know, and I don't know, maybe in the Marine Corps they'll start issuing out, you know, blankets, whoobies, teddy bears, or whatever.
owen shroyer
I don't know. A nice plush toy.
tim reames
I didn't get one of those. You haven't got your plush toy yet?
owen shroyer
I haven't got one yet. Yeah, Tim is traumatized, okay?
He saw a gun when he was deployed overseas.
He saw a gun, guys.
He smelled gunpowder.
So we need to send him a plush doll.
Would you like a Trump plush or the Trump bear plush?
tim reames
Well, besides that, I would have liked a 14 days where I didn't have to go to war.
Like a quarantine? Yeah, like if I hurt a gunshot, like I could stay at the barracks in the green zone in Baghdad and like not have to do anything for 14 days.
owen shroyer
Well, you know, what about all these people that are out of work right now or the small businesses suffering?
Do they have a safe space that they can go occupy?
Is there a safe space for them?
tim reames
The bathroom. And, you know, it kind of, like, doubled down, too, because, like, if there's a tornado, it's probably- There you go.
owen shroyer
There might be a tornado. Tornado season is coming.
tim reames
It's actually a two-for-one, but there's safe space in their house.
owen shroyer
They can go there. It's like, we should all live in, if you live in Tornado Alley in Kansas or Missouri or, you know, these areas or Oklahoma, like, you should probably just live underground for six months of the year.
tim reames
Absolutely. And everybody in Florida needs to leave because- Yeah, yeah, just abandon Florida.
One huge hurricane every once, every 10, 20 years.
Just in case.
owen shroyer
It's safer that way. It's better.
tim reames
Save lives. It's definitely safer.
owen shroyer
Save lives. Leave Florida.
There could be a hurricane, and there could be a flood.
tim reames
You never know. Just hide. Hide.
owen shroyer
Don't fight. Just hide. There was a story in Iran, because they're dealing with the coronavirus.
They just had a big flood come through, right?
Mm-hmm. But see, I was looking at this.
They're like, oh, Iran with the flood!
People die in the flood.
Oh, Iran's suffering so much.
And they kept hyping up this flood.
I went, it's a seasonal flood.
Sure. Every year at this exact time it floods, people die.
So people still choose to live there.
They know the flood is coming.
tim reames
How many people have died from tsunamis in the last 10, 20 years?
owen shroyer
They still live on the coast.
They still set up restaurants and hotels and bars.
Hell, they sit there.
You can see they'll literally stand on the patio as the tsunami is about to smash them.
Knowing they can't swim. It's like making it illegal.
Like, okay, you're not allowed to film a tsunami.
tim reames
You could drown. I think that's another thing I should have used in the Marine Corps is arm floaties.
owen shroyer
Yeah, whenever you guys are wading through the swamp.
The water is scary. And make them, like, bright yellow, too, so that you can see where the other one is and you don't get, like, you know, six feet of social distance.
tim reames
I'm thinking, like, reflective. Yeah.
Just like a motorcycle jacket.
Yes. That would have made me feel sick.
owen shroyer
For safety. It's for your safety.
Absolutely. Two weeks. Two weeks.
All right. Tim Reams is with us.
We're going to start taking your phone calls again on the other side.
Remember, folks, final segment today.
Alex Jones is going to be weighing in on the story at Infowars.com.
Look, folks, you know about all the censorship, the bands.
We've created new websites, new apps.
We're trying to stay ease of access on your cell phone.
They are just removing everything now.
It's whack-a-mole with these people.
So we're going to have an official statement from Alex Jones.
Final segment. Of today's war room.
So stick around for that.
And remember, it's a miracle.
Not only is America and free speech a miracle, but InfoWars still being on air during these perilous times is a miracle thanks to your support at InfoWarsStore.com.
InfoWarsStore.com. You got four minutes.
Go shop there in this break right now.
It's the official Shrimpzilla theme song.
As far as I'm concerned, as far as I know, this is the only studio powered by a shrimp.
And there it is right there.
Did you know that, Tim? Did you know that?
I did not. That shrimp powers the entire studio right there running on that treadmill.
This is a sustainable broadcast.
tim reames
He actually does a better job than Lance Armstrong.
owen shroyer
Yes, and steroid-free.
Yeah, exactly. Our shrimp is steroid-free, but...
He may be steroid-free, but he does have a performance-enhancing drugs.
He does demand at least two droppers of Super Male Vitality a day, and he will only run in water purified by the water filters at InfoWareStore.com.
So those are Shrimpzilla's stipulations, but he powers the whole studio, so we thank him for that.
All right, we were talking about in the break, and I promise we're going back to your phone calls.
How after 9-11, so many of our freedoms were stripped.
This is kind of like a global 9-11.
And we were laughing at the fact how they put little markers out at stores or grocery stores for six feet of social distancing.
And then everybody walks up and touches the same keypad.
Well, eventually they'll wake up to that ludicrous practice.
And then they'll say, well, this is why you have to have a chip implanted in your wrist.
So you can just flash the keypad and you don't have to touch it.
This is all very conveniently coming.
tim reames
Slowly but surely, they'll take away or chip away at all your freedoms.
And like I said, like on break, you know, I was in the Marine Corps during 9-11.
I remember it vividly.
And I actually had to take a flight right after that.
And all of a sudden, there was this thing that was called, now we know it as TSA. But in the Marine Corps, I had a Marine Corps bag, knife.
You know, you can't take this.
They're throwing all this stuff away. And I'm like, that was issued.
That was issued. And they slowly stripped away everything that we do at the airports now.
They go through your stuff. They take body scans.
owen shroyer
And they do all that stuff. They zap you with radiation.
tim reames
Sure. And it was because it was the fear of another 9-11 happening.
So you go to today and we have these numbers kind of like what I'm afraid of is what's going to happen next because of what they're doing.
They're keeping us at home.
Social distancing. You can't do this.
You can't do that. Or they're giving you a fine.
So what are they working up to next?
Because really, again, look at the numbers.
It's not like it happens all the time.
Not a lot of people are doing this in order for me to give up.
My freedom of actually going outside and going around the Lady Bird Lake and jogging and then not getting a thousand dollar ticket or whatever the ridiculous tickets are going on around it.
owen shroyer
And they're trying to bring in the digital tracking so now it's like oh I got my cell phone I can't leave my house without getting confirmation from an app plus they're digitally tracking me to monitor coronavirus or whatever the latest trend is with a virus and then they see oh wait wait a second Owen and Tim are with five other people.
You're only allowed to be with three people right now.
And so now they show up.
It's like, how did you know I was at my house, my private property, with three of my friends playing pool and smoking cigars?
Well, we found you on the app, so, you know...
Excuse me, you have an illegal gathering of three or more persons here.
We're going to have to ask you to disperse immediately or you will be fined and arrested.
tim reames
It's like, that's where we're going. Well, and I think you could even take it one step further.
I mean, they've got different highways throughout the U.S. where you get a ticket.
You know, the plane just goes overhead, catches you, you get a ticket in the mail.
owen shroyer
Yeah, right, the laser. Same thing, yeah.
tim reames
They'll just fly over your pool, they see you and your friends.
owen shroyer
And then they mail you the ticket, too.
tim reames
Mail you the ticket. Thank you, Google Earth.
owen shroyer
By the way, and they made, at least in Texas and I believe in St.
Louis, too, they made red light cameras illegal.
Legal, yes, but not all because they still do them in D.C. So it's just certain areas where basically mayors or governors are saying.
tim reames
State to state, exactly. And I know they banned it here because it was such an issue, but I could just see other states, you know, that maybe have communist leanings, like say California, that would actually go back.
Plus they're broke. That too, they need the money.
Yeah. So they can fly overhead with drones probably and then fly overhead, see you with all your friends and then just go ahead and see.
owen shroyer
Oh, I'm saying within five years, drones are in the air like birds.
Sure. Like you see a bird in the air.
All right, let's take a phone call here.
Let's go to who's been holding the longest.
Chris in Minnesota.
I assume he's a veteran.
If not, I'll have to put the crew in a headlock for putting Chris on priority here.
unidentified
All right, Chris, go ahead. Hi, Owen.
Haven't talked to you since around Christmas.
Hope you're doing well, and thanks for taking the call.
Three things. I mean, the very first, you remember, the very first bill that Trump signed, the first one he signed after being president, we all found that atrocious.
It was like, oh my goodness, just more of the same, just another So, I believe Trump has a plan, and he's using the funny money.
You know, why not? We're not going to pay the debt.
owen shroyer
Well, look, that's what people are saying.
They just broke the Federal Reserve.
Look, here's my thing.
I get it. There's obviously a cold civil war going on, and there's going to be stuff that we maybe even never know about.
I'm not going to be drawn into this notion, and this isn't an attack on the QAnon people.
I understand a lot of you listen, but...
When I sit back here and raise a fuss about something and you say, oh, oh, and trust the plan, no!
I'm not in on a plan, okay?
I don't know if there's a plan.
All I know is what I see happening, and so I respond to that.
And so I get it with the hope of QAnon being real.
Trust me, I get it. It's like QAnon is real or bust, pretty much.
But I'm not going to trust the plan.
I don't know the plan.
Okay? And I talked to enough military people and enough people in high places.
They don't know the plan either.
So it's like, I'm just supposed to put all my faith in some anonymous poster on 4chan?
To me, that's idiotic.
Now again, I get the hope of it.
I understand it.
But I'm not going to be told, quit complaining about the stimulus.
Trust the plan. They're crashing the Federal Reserve.
Why not just come out and say, hey, the Federal Reserve is a private bank.
The fractional reserve banking system has drove us into debt.
Let's just end it. Why not do it that?
Why do you have to do it this way? Well, cue it on.
Just trust the plan. I don't know if you follow that, but that's what people are saying.
tim reames
We usually have a saying in the Marine Corps or in the military period, it's above my pay grade.
You know, you just follow the orders.
But one of the best things about being a recon Marine is typically we worked in six-man teams and we could always kind of follow our, not necessarily make up our own orders, but we were given a mission and then we would actually know what was going on and try to figure out how to finish that mission.
But as far as something like this is going on, I don't personally like to just trust people.
Like, oh, we'll figure it out.
I mean, you've got people in Congress and Senate When I joined the Marine Corps, I had to take a test called the ASVAB to get in, because they're not just going to give any stupid person a rifle and be like, all right, hey, let's go this way.
Just don't shoot your friend, you know, and trust you.
But you've got Congress and Senate, and they don't, as far as I know, they don't take tests, right?
They just, as long as you're elected in, you get in there.
owen shroyer
It's almost like, take a test, see how dumb you are.
tim reames
Yeah, and, you know.
owen shroyer
Lori Lightfoot, have you seen this mayor of Chicago?
tim reames
I would love to see AOC take an ASVAB test and see if any military branch would ever take her.
But she's up there flailing around about this and that, and I'm just like, you know what?
For a lady that put out a video about not knowing what a garbage disposal was, I'm like, you know what?
She just... I wouldn't give her a rifle in the military.
owen shroyer
So that's why... Well, it's tough, man.
I mean, operating a garbage disposal, you know, that's tough these days.
tim reames
So you want me to put my faith into her and how we're going to do better in the future?
Just for me, I don't see it either.

Let me hit a couple of these headlines.
We're about to go to a break and then we're going to take more of your phone calls.
And then we're going to hear from Alex Jones on the latest wave of censorship.
William Shatner puts out an interesting tweet.
Hashtag the unexplained.
Omar and Nixivum.
Of course, we all know Nixivum is the sex cult that's been exposed and they are still investigating.
Is he talking about Ilhan Omar in the first one?
Or something else?
Of course, Ilhan Omar famous for marrying her brother.
John Roberts, Fox News reporter, puts up this.
This is like the state of CNN, I believe.
Gum, this is in the White House press room.
Gum under the seats.
This is what you used to do in like grade school or something if they let you chew gum or you got caught.
Uh, this is what CNN reporters.
So this is the CNN chair with gum under the seat in the White House press room.
And then this chair is Reuters.
My guess is that's the same CNN person.
They just flipped it onto their seat here.
So who from CNN is the disgusting pig that puts their chewed up gum?
Is it Acosta? Acosta?
I'm just asking questions.
I would DNA test that test right now, DNA test that gum, and figure out who it is, and that's biological warfare on the White House right there.
A couple things left to hit with Tim Reams.
You can find his reports at band.video.
This is the InfoWars War Room brought to you by InfoWarsStore.com.
We're going to hear from Alex Jones in the next segment.
But first, I am...
I'm speechless.
I'm fumbling and bumbling for words up here like Joe Biden.
The story just hit Infowars.com.
Texas judge National Guard troops to conduct door-to-door coronavirus checkups.
And according to KXAN, the NBC affiliate here locally, Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins claimed the troops would merely be conducting a medical mission We're good to go.
But so they're claiming, I guess, this is just a medical mission drill.
They're going to test more people.
So, Tim, respond to this.
This is like, I mean, I can't believe this.
I feel like the troops should reject this.
But, of course, they're told, oh, it's just a drill for medical reasons when they're just practicing this to get people used to it.
And then mention the positive you saw in the stimulus bill with the VA package there.
But, wow, National Guard troops to conduct door-to-door coronavirus checkups.
tim reames
Yeah, I would definitely be cautious for National Guard just to go up to anybody's house, especially like a stack of six guys, just to what?
owen shroyer
Check my temperature? Again, like you said, imagine you go up to the wrong guy's house that's unhinged.
tim reames
Yeah, I just wouldn't be happy.
I mean, I've got a 95-pound German Shepherd at my house, and he...
He loves snacks, and National Guard would be a perfect snack, you know?
Okay. You know, and I just, you know, maybe call first.
Maybe, like, ring the doorbell.
Like, hey, you know. Yeah, man.
Make sure it's voluntary, too, because if you came to my door and you're like, hey, we're doing this, that's probably not going to go over well.
You know, about two months ago, you know, I didn't buy toilet paper, but I bought a couple thousand rounds of ammo.
You know, that's just how I, you know, prep.
Makes sense. Yeah, I just, you know, maybe send one individual, hey, just checking up on you guys.
I could see it, maybe see something like that, a little health and comfort, you know, checkup or whatever they want to call it.
Just say, hey, nice, friendly, you know, but I wouldn't send anybody to the door, you know, intimidating looking and just say, hey, you're going to come out and we're going to check you regardless.
owen shroyer
But look at this. The judge that issued this is saying, don't worry, they're just nurses in military gear.
Well, why are you putting them in military uniforms?
tim reames
Yeah, there's probably friendlier outfits.
owen shroyer
It's optical training, man.
And I'm not saying Clay Jenkins, he may not even know this or he may not even realize this, but man, this is setting a precedent for the military going door-to-door.
Sure, it's just a nurse, but hell, if I dress up in military gear and go door-to-door to promote a website, people are going to see military going door-to-door.
tim reames
And I think the biggest thing, too, is...
Yeah, not good.
owen shroyer
Mention real quick, the stimulus bill plugs the VA a little bit here.
tim reames
Yeah, so I was reading up and I was very grateful to find out that there was actually a Democratic representative, Senator John Tester from Montana, Which is overdue.
Oh, absolutely. But what's also great about that is the fact that now they're pushing it to where if you're sick, you don't necessarily have to go there.
You can go to a local hospital and then they'll flip the bill and pay for it.
So I think that's what's real huge right now.
owen shroyer
If you can get in, but still that is big for them.
tim reames
Instead of driving, you know, 30 minutes to an hour to a VA and then wait where people are most likely sick.
So it's actually a huge package.
owen shroyer
A little pearl of goodness there.
Alright, let's go to the veterans on the line now.
James, Air Force in Indiana.
unidentified
Go ahead, James. Hey, this coronavirus virus has pushed a lot of veteran news to the side.
Trump's made a lot of positive changes, but the VA accountability is a delusion.
The VA is hiring sex offenders or murderers that can't get jobs at the post office, but they're allowing them to work on veterans.
The VA lying to Congress is nothing's done, but everyone else gets jail on allegations.
There's a big story out of Waco, Texas a couple weeks ago.
VA breaking federal prescribing laws and veterans going through side effects of these dangerous drugs get jail.
The chief of staff in Indiana breaking federal prescribing laws, turning veterans into drug addicts, gets retirement while everybody else gets death and destruction.
There was a veteran with a knife out of Dallas that was shot 19 times by VA police, went quiet.
How many veterans were in jail or were being medicated on these mind-altering drugs?
Veterans with mental health problems approved for help to have all their bills denied.
600 veterans a month to suicide, and this country's never shut down.
And the last thing, Owen, you know this better than anyone.
Freedom of speech is only good if they want to use it against you in court.
tim reames
I would actually like to respond to this one, too.
You know, and this is just like being, you know, like in the teams in the military.
You know, we have to look out for each other because nobody else is going to do it.
It's the same thing when you're in a war zone.
When somebody gets shot, it's self-aid buddy aid.
Nobody else is coming. Nobody else is going to do that.
It's sad and unfortunate that a lot of this stuff does get pushed off, but it's up to us as veterans to kind of reach out to your buddies that you haven't talked to in a long time.
Reach out to any veteran on the street or, you know, if you have a World War II veteran right down the road, you know, go check up on him.
Go do that stuff. But first and foremost, we need to actually help each other out and check on each other.
This other stuff, you know, if you do see this stuff, you know, tag it, push it out there.
Because a lot of these things that you just mentioned, I live here in Texas, I actually haven't even heard of half of them.
owen shroyer
Yeah, I didn't hear about that either.
tim reames
And so for me, it's eye-opening.
And it's one of those things, well...
You know, now I'm kind of mad at myself, like, well, why didn't I see this?
owen shroyer
But, you know, isn't that kind of a common story?
And James, I'm sorry to cut you off.
I got to take another call here. But isn't that kind of the common thing?
The veterans news and the veterans always get pushed aside, right?
I mean, they always get pushed aside.
Like you said, like, how many veterans commit suicide?
There's never a shutdown. How many veterans die from drug overdose?
There's never a shutdown. Good points there.
Let's go to Brad, Navy veteran in Boston.
unidentified
Go ahead. Well, you know, I have to say that you're right when it comes to a situation where we're dealing with veterans who are not getting care, right? We're not getting care.
tim reames
No, you're correct. We're not getting care, and this is not like it's something new.
They are doing better things, and thank God we have President Trump in there right now because it is getting better, but you can go back to the Civil War after World War I, World War II. It's one of the biggest issues we've always had.
You know, veterans come back.
They don't get the jobs they want back, and then they kind of get pushed off to the side.
I mean, if you look back, you remember the wars.
I mean, you can go into history and you listen to all the wars and stuff, or maybe a medal or some bad battle.
But you don't, like, what did the veterans do right after?
You know, it's typically hidden.
And so for nowadays, and it's not necessarily, you know, thank God we have the medical technology that we have today and all the medical advances that we have started to realize, you know, the traumatic brain injury and this and that.
But a lot of it is getting pushed off.
And it's just up to us, first and foremost, to be the loudest minorities out there to actually speak up.
It's the same thing as the LGBT community.
They make the biggest noise, and so they get a lot of traction as far as social media goes.
Well, it's about time we start doing the same thing.
Everybody that's a veteran or everybody that has a veteran as a family member needs to start...
You know, raising a stink, raising a hell, you know, social media, this and that.
And then whenever you find something out new, which is what I do all the time, and I kind of let guys know, you know, and I... I was injured overseas.
I got my master's degree from rehabilitation program that the VA had.
I didn't even know it. I just so happened to be there and they asked me a question and they're like, oh, well, you get this program on top of that.
So as soon as I got done, I called all my buddies like, hey, did you know they had this and that?
Because a lot of people don't know. You know, the veterans, they don't go out there and they don't look at this stuff all the time.
So for me, it's whenever you do find that information, man, you know, shotgun it out there, let people know, tag people, tweet about it, all that stuff.
owen shroyer
What do you think about the stimulus bill, Brad?
unidentified
I think the stimulus bill is a total joke.
I think that what we have to do is we have to actually simulate the kids who are working.
You know, this doesn't simulate those kids.
That's what I'm saying. What do you think?
owen shroyer
No, this stimulates the swamp, is what it stimulates.
It stimulates D.C. It stimulates their power of the purse, and it stimulates their agendas, stimulates bureaucracies and government buildings.
It does not stimulate the average American.
In fact, I mean, look. Let's see if and when Americans actually get a check in the mail.
Okay? Let's...
Exactly. Tim's over here laughing.
But seriously, let's see the day.
Wait till we see it. Because...
But we really are getting a kind of a keyhole into what communism and socialism looks like.
Lines to get into the store, food rations, toilet paper rations, all this...
Shut everything down. I mean, you know it.
tim reames
Yeah, and it's one of those things.
It's just like in the military. Oh, if you get hurt, then we'll take care of you.
Well, how long does it take to get taken care of?
owen shroyer
Don't worry. You'll get that check in the mail.
Hey, I haven't got that check yet.
That check's coming. Hey, still haven't got that check.
Check's coming. All right, Tim Reams.
Follow him on band.video.
Final segment of the InfoWars War Room.
We're about to hear from Alex Jones on the latest round of censorship against information, truth, and freedom of the press.
Remember to support us at Infowarsstore.com.
You know, we're going to have to take a serious look in the mirror next week at some things because, and believe me, nobody wants the death rate to go up, but I mean, it's almost as if we don't have 80,000 deaths by the end of next week, we need to look at ourselves like, what the hell are we doing here?
And I think most Americans are seeing it this way.
Most Trump supporters as well.
Don't like the stimulus bill.
Don't like the shutdown.
Want to reopen the country.
Want to reopen the economy. Don't want to scare ourselves into a Great Depression that could last for decades.
So it is an incredible time to be alive, no doubt, in this fight against worldwide tyranny.
But I'm just taken aback by all of it right now.
We're going to soak it in this weekend.
And be sure to stay tuned at band.video, infowars.com, newswars.com, for all the latest breaking information.
So... Be sure to support us at InfoWareStore.com over the weekend.
Stay tuned for all the latest news and updates.
I want to thank all my great guests for being on with us today.
All the great veterans that called in.
All the great veterans that listened.
We salute you. And I want to thank the people that support us at InfoWareStore.com.
A crew that does such a great job here making it all possible is your support at InfoWareStore.com.
So, I sign off.
And we now go to Alex Jones with his response, which can be found in the article linked at Infowarsstore.com.
Google bans Infowars app from Play Store.
We'll put this video report in that article as well.
You stay classy, Infowarriors.
alex jones
Here's Alex Jones. The same big tech companies that ruthlessly spy on the American people and illegally sell our data to third parties.
Have been engaged in the last three years since Hillary Clinton lost the election to Donald Trump in a massive campaign of censorship and voter suppression.
I have been banned in my Infowars news articles and videos off of hundreds of major platforms.
And this was all led by Apple, Google, Facebook, and Twitter two years ago.
A powerful consortium of companies representing over 95% of all internet traffic to gang up as a monopoly cartel.
That would make the old robber baron railroad titans blush to then bully the American people into submission.
And now we've seen all these Democrat governors and mayors banning doctors from prescribing hydroxychloroquil, which according to the European Union is a very promising treatment.
In the offending video that Google says they banned our app for, our popular app, all I was doing was covering news articles about how all these doctors on Fox News, CNN, you name it, were saying zinc, this hydroxychloroquine, and other compounds were having success against the coronavirus.
So all I was doing was reporting on other people's reports And then they're saying that that's Infowars making false statements about the coronavirus and treatments.
This is next level suppression of free speech and the American people.
But we shouldn't be surprised.
You now see Facebook with the WhatsApp going in in live time and blocking what people can individually text to each other.
This is beyond anything George Arwell could have ever imagined.
Google then goes forward with the defamation in their statements claiming that I say I have a cure for the COVID-19 viral infection when I've never said any such thing.
I said in Pentagon-reviewed studies, nanosilver, when it's right up against The virus is able to kill it in most cases, but so does sunshine, so does oxygen after a few days.
Again, the idea that fact checkers selected by the left sit in these secret committees and decide what's fact and what isn't, or what we're allowed to say, is incredibly dangerous.
And then when they pass judgment on you in secret and ban you, They then turn around and misrepresent what it is you actually said.
And because the app's been deleted, you can't even see the video that they are misrepresented.
This is beyond Kafkaesque and It's so dangerous.
So now the very same big tech companies that spy on you and control your life and sell your data are now spying on us and suppressing what we can and can't say and what is orthodox and what isn't.
At the same time, we're not supposed to leave our houses.
To be able to congregate under the First Amendment for redress of grievances, we're told online we can't give our opinions about what's happening in the news.
It's incredibly newsworthy that known successful treatments in Europe and other areas for the virus are being suppressed by Democrat governors.
One can only deduce from this that they don't want people to have hope.
And it's because I'm covering articles that give people hope that they're angry at me.
In fact, we've seen the news media, the controlled corporate dinosaur media, criticizing President Trump in headlines saying he's giving people false hope and that he should shut his mouth.
When all he's doing is talking to medical doctors that are telling him this information.
So they're calling for the president to lose his Twitter.
They're calling for the president to not be able to even have these press conferences or for the media not to cover it.
Because these globalist mouthpieces are authoritarian and are not pro-America.
In fact, they're anti-America.
And they're working against the interests of this country.
And they're angry that their investment in China has been damaged by our successful trade war.
And now they want to punish Americans and punish President Trump with a depression to teach us to come to heel, just like Bill Maher has said three times on his HBO show and countless other Democrats have said on CNN and MSNBC. And we have those clips collated and posted to our own independent media service, band.video.
So I encourage everyone that wants to actually see what we said and listen to what we said and read what we've written to actually go to infowars.com or newswars.com or band.video and discover the verboten information for yourself.
You'll find the band video at band.video under the title see the video that Google banned our app for.
And there I am playing a Fox News clip and a letter from a medical doctor and reading articles about the medical doctor in New York that said he successfully treated people with this.
And it's not like he's the only one saying this.
The EU and all these doctors over there are in the news saying it was very successful.
That's crazy. The thing is, even unpopular and untrue speech is supposed to be protected in America.
Now, true speech that is simply covering what's really going on is being banned.
And being misrepresented.
So that's my statement.
Truth-tellers were persecuted in 1776.
Truth-tellers were persecuted in the 1950s and 60s with the Civil Rights Movement.
And truth-tellers will always be persecuted.
But as Mahatma Gandhi said, first they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they attack you, then you win.
And we're in the attack phase right now.
And as you notice, we're also entering the phase of winning.
And so we won't be intimidated by all these minions and followers of the globalist system.
They think we're like them.
They think intimidation and blacklisting and arrest and lawsuits and persecution will shut us down.
It only makes us fight that much harder, confirming just how authoritarian and dangerous they really were.
So again, ladies and gentlemen, remember in America.
As a consumer, as a citizen, as a human being, you're not supposed to write reviews of medical care.
You're not supposed to talk about drugs or vaccines.
You're supposed to sit there and shut your mouths and have no hope and just wait for Bill Gates' supposed vaccine to come down the road.
But surely don't read all the news articles where top scientists are warning of the new vaccine and saying it may cause more damage than good.
I'm not allowed to speak as a human being.
I should just shut up.
Even doctors that want to prescribe things need to shut up.
Only Democrat governors and the Communist Party of China can speak.
Only authoritarian states have a right to speak now, and they set the precedent for how we're going to live in America.
And if you don't sit there and take it, the criminals that run Google, Facebook, Twitter, and the other platforms will work in unison to silence you.
So, America and the world, you have the choice.
Submit to these tyrants and their digital gulag or rise up in the information war with human intelligence and human will and override them before it's too late.
You won't have to wait for future generations to live under tyranny if we don't act.
You're now living under it now.
It's not just a lockdown in your homes, it's a lockdown of the mind.
Resist or be enslaved and perish.
It is with no pleasure that I come to you and report to you that Infowars' worst analysis of the coming events six weeks ago has turned out to be dead on yet again.
But it was the scripting, it was the choreographed nature of the Communist Chinese, the EU, mainstream controlled media In the West, the United Nations, that let us know that this virus was going to be used to bring down Western economies.
Communist China bought the weaponized virus from Obama five years ago.
It's been confirmed it's man-made.
There's been an almost complete lockdown on that info, even though members of the Senate Intelligence Committee have come out and said that's where all the evidence points.
So a manufactured virus that they know is going to create devastation and panic is released right as the United States won the trade war with Communist China.
Now remember, Communist China is Not just China, it's all the globalist interests that have built up China to be the model of authoritarianism for the entire world.
And so Infowars was dead on saying that if Trump didn't upfront understand that he was being set up, and that if Trump tried to play it down as to not create panic, they would then double back later Unified in the corporate media and say that he had dropped the ball by not installing enough of emergency early and that it was his fault that the virus spread uncontrollably inside the United States.
Even though the facts don't show any of that, they show the opposite.
China said it was no big deal and was covering it up.
Trump went along with that as to not create a new trade war.
Then, as soon as China was seen as the wondrous good guys in all of this by all the media and saints killing people at checkpoints and shutting down whole cities and welding people into their homes, as soon as that was completed, suddenly it shifted that Trump hadn't done enough, even though it was the United Nations that had said weeks and weeks ago Trump was wrong for stopping flights from China.
They wanted it to come here, they wanted it to spread, and they wanted to use it as an economic crisis to kill the Trump recovery and hopefully remove him from office and to stop his nationwide rallies because of the virus and so much more.
And now, exactly as we predicted six weeks ago, The controlled corporate press is blaming President Trump for the virus that originated in China.
So make no mistake, America is at war with an axis of evil.
The Communist Chinese is its main base of operations.
But the megabanks, the EU, the UN, and the leftists across the world are banded together openly celebrating that this will kill the US recovery.
And America becoming great again because the last 50 years has been about slowly de-industrializing us, turning us against our friends and family, breaking up our families, turning men against women, women against men, race war, all of this garbage.
And because America is coming back, the globalists are so angry.
And so now they're using the global power they had over the economy to try to shut our economy down.
And they're so arrogant, they're bragging about it, just like Bill Maher did a week ago, saying, we're going to bring Trump down with this coronavirus.
These people are sick.
And they're evil. We have to come together and realize what's happening and rally behind President Trump and rally behind America and expose where the virus came from and the fact that it's man-made.
