Van Jones
I had a front row seat to a lot of this and at various times was basically told not to believe what I was seeing or hearing. The President misspoke. The President has a cold. But now the dam appears to be breaking. This Wall Street Journal item interviewed 50 people familiar with Biden's operation, and it raises a lot of questions about who was making key decisions. You mentioned the Afghanistan withdrawal. If the President was as diminished as this story makes it sound, that would be a huge problem. And it could explain why certain decisions were made that turned out to be catastrophic and why no apologies were ever made. To your point, Brian, when the Cabinet met all nine times, which is the least in the last several decades that a president has had their whole Cabinet together in an entire term, there was a different item a few months ago where Cabinet secretaries were being asked to submit their questions for the President behind closed doors in advance. And they were being told to keep it quick because the way that it worked was they would ask a question that was pre screened and then the President would have a card with the answer, even in a closed setting. And I hear a lot of the complaints about. And there was a bite in the open. Why wasn't there more coverage of the President's age and acuity earlier? Well, a lot of the stories that you hear, you kept asking. I kept asking the whole time. And a lot of the stories that we would hear that we would try to report out are secondhand. But it's a lot of stuff like, oh, you would hear from somebody on the staff or somebody that works at the White House. It looked like the President was falling asleep somewhere. Okay, hard to confirm that, but we have tape of him falling asleep at events as recently as his most recent foreign trip. There are big, fancy college words called oligarchy, plutocracy that folks tonight might want to look up. It's called ruled by rich folks. And that's what we're dealing with, A bunch of rich folks. Two rich people threw a fit online and threw the government upside down. That is not good for America. Now, did the bill go from big to little? What happened is that the bipartisan deal that got struck by elections, elected officials of our country were overthrown by two billionaires throwing a fit. And it's not even January.
Scott Pressler
Scott, what's your take on that?
Stephen K. Bannon
Well, if Van is concerned about unelected officials running the government, I would invite him to review the last four years of the Biden administration and maybe pick up the Wall Street Journal this week. We've apparently had a president that's so diminished that his staff has been hiding it from the American people and making key decisions on behalf of our government despite never having been elected to anything at all.
Raheem Kassam
So if you're concerned about it tonight.
Stephen K. Bannon
Maybe take a look the last four years. Look, I think ultimately all's well that ends well. The government did not shut down. We're not in any kind of crisis over the holidays here. And when the Republicans get sworn in in January and Trump comes to the office on January 20th, they're going to have to come together as a team and decide are we going to work together or not. That's ultimately how you get things done in a legislative body. This is where the Democrats had some things right. You know, Jeffries had them unified. And that.
Raheem Kassam
This is the primal scream.
Stephen K. Bannon
Of a dying pray for our enemies.
Raheem Kassam
Because we're going amid evil on these people.
Stephen K. Bannon
You're just not going to free shot.
Raheem Kassam
All these networks lying about the people.
Stephen K. Bannon
The people have had a belly full of it.
Raheem Kassam
I know you don't like hearing that.
Stephen K. Bannon
I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but.
Raheem Kassam
You'Re not going to stop it. It's going to happen.
Van Jones
And where do people like that go to share the big lie? MAGA media. I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
Stephen K. Bannon
Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose? If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved. War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Ban.
Natalie Winters
Is this country gonna be saved? You're in the war room. It's December 21st in the year of our Lord 2024. I like to call the war room. Conversion therapy for rhinos. You like that? I like that. Well, we're gonna have Steve do some crowd work, but before I want to walk through what we just watched, that was, of course, Fox. We can boo for Fox. You want to boo for Fox. We don't like them. Or then you can definitely boo for cnn. That was not Scott Pressler. It was Kaitlan Collins.
Stephen K. Bannon
Whoa.
Natalie Winters
There's been some interesting reporting while we've all been having fun here at amfest. The Wall Street Journal has confirmed something that I'm sure everyone in this audience has known, which is that Joe Biden is and never has been the real president. But more importantly, it's that the administrative state, the deep state, whatever you want to call it, that they exist and they've been running the show. So there's this long formed article coming out from the Wall Street Journal talking about how over 50 high level aides and advisors to President Biden have said he is absolutely mia. They've had to cancel meetings because sometimes he wakes up and has a good day or a bad day. They like to just ask him, I'm not kidding, what flavor of ice cream he wants. They even had to hire a voice coach for him. I know I shouldn't be speaking because I'm losing my voice, but they thought that he sounded like too much of an old man, so they hired some Hollywood elitist to give him vocal lessons. There you go. But here's the thing. I actually would argue that he's actually the ideal president for the Deep State because he has no backbone. So they can use him, as I think I've heard this term before, but a listless vessel, right. To push the agenda of the Deep State State. And to that point, I want to give you some, as we call them in the war room, buried leads from this story. Number one, high level Democrat congressman tried reaching out to Joe Biden amidst the Afghanistan debacle, botched withdrawal, and he was unreachable. Unreachable. Didn't pick up the phone. Secondly, speaking about how the Deep State has commandeered the illegitimate Biden regime, we know they lost the 2020 election, right?
Stephen K. Bannon
Amen.
Natalie Winters
But here's what's so interesting. What do you guys think about this? Very smart crowd. So I know you guys know what I'm about to say. FISA surveillance Renewing fisa.
Stephen K. Bannon
Boo.
Natalie Winters
Right. Well, Jim Himes, who's the top Democrat on Senate intel, worked not with Joe Biden, but with his advisors to ram through renewing fisa. They exploited a lame duck president to be able to jam that through. And most importantly, they were prepping him for the interview with Bob her for hours a day. And he still botched the interview because. Of course. But I think here's the important thing. And Steve, I'll toss it to you because maybe the posse can help us crack crack the code on this one. But I think what you're seeing now, it started with the Hunter Biden pardon, but it's a complete limited hangout of the Biden regime where the Washington D.C. class, who knows that we're coming for them with investigations, maybe they heard you guys applauding for that. So let's make sure they can hear us on that front. But they're saying we want nothing to do with Joe Biden. Well, you know what I say to that? Well then where were you guys in 2020? And Steve, I'll just hang on for.
Stephen K. Bannon
A second, I got a question on Peter Doocy. Did Peter Doocy say that in four years Biden has only, has only had. Is only had with his cabinet.
Raheem Kassam
Nine times, correct?
Stephen K. Bannon
Can you guys hear me? Can you hear me? Nine times in four years? Four years.
Natalie Winters
And that includes the one that Jill was sitting in the main.
Stephen K. Bannon
Jill, right. Okay. So, so, so eight times in four years. That means twice a year he's met with the whole cabinet. I mean, President Trump will meet and.
Natalie Winters
Most were towards the end of the term. I believe in 2020 or 21, he had one.
Stephen K. Bannon
One in two years.
Natalie Winters
23, I think Obama had about around that number.
Stephen K. Bannon
2, 9 and 4, how I meet with my ex, three ex wives, lawyers, more than nine times in four years. They want to know where those checks are. Come on. How can a guy meet 9 times in 4 years? This shows you think about all. You guys get mocked and ridiculed all the time, right? You're very susceptible to false information and all this. You run and chasing rabbits all the time. Think about this for a second. This another conspiracy. We said from the very beginning it was all totally phony. And this is why they kept the laptop. It makes sense when you see the logic of it. When the laptop from hell came to Ray and Barr back In November of 2019, they suppressed that the FBI and we're going to find out why and who suppress it because there's whistleblowers out there want to talk about it. Because they understood if they, if they put it up at the time, Joe Biden, who's going to be the kind of phony candidate of the deep state, would blow up and you get Bernie Sanders or Elizabeth Warren or something like that.
Eric Metaxas
Right?
Stephen K. Bannon
So they, and they weren't. Not, not that, not that we, not that we couldn't have, you know, defeated them even bigger than we beat Biden. We won 2020. Right? No, no doubt, no doubt about it. No, you're not conservative. You'd never. If you concede that point, you can see the whole thing, right? Is that correct? Man, you see if you guys know how to negotiate a thousand times better than up there, right? You can't. If you concede the 2020 election, you can see the whole thing. And we get, and we're open minded, fair people, right? When we see the evidence, if they can show us that the 74 million votes. Think about it. I thought I did a really good job in 1663. No, no, but 63 and a half million votes, he topped it, got 74 million votes. You remember in Arizona they had the car thing on 100 miles long down in Miami. They had the boat thing. They had to close the harbor. There was such a outpouring of support. There's no chance. We just saw from this last election where all the million votes that they're missing, but here's why. Because. Well, because the low propensity law information voters that all came out to get them 81 didn't turn out in 22. Those people didn't vote in 22. Right. And they didn't vote again at 24. So where are they? Right. Covid, the fake man. We're never going to stop. Oh, my God. It's a number two pencil right here. What is this for? Oh, thank you, Army. The awakened dittos from State 48. We should loan this to resident Biden puppet for all the pardons. So then, on the day of accountability, January 20, President Trump can just erase the signature like that. That's good. It's pretty good. Ben Berkwan, what do you got for us? I got Peter Stewart here, the new ICE comms guy. The ICE who used to be with a terrible union. They got ice. Hold it. ICE comms. That's a tough job. Go home.
Eric Metaxas
That's it.
Stephen K. Bannon
Go home. Go home. The bus is leaving. Big fan. Thanks for having me, fellow Mick from the East Coast. We're reconstituting. Biden got rid of our union because we were too, you know, not in line with his agenda. We're reconstituting right now under the Fraternal Order of Police, and we appreciate all your support. Okay, fine. Where. Where do people. Where do people go? And I o. A U.S. national Ice Officers Association. U.S. okay. Is ICE going to be able to get this done? Sir, we are so happy with Holman coming on board. Morale has done a 180. Go Tom Holman. We like Tom. We like. We like. We like Tom Holman. We like Tom. Steve, everyone here will help deport, I'm sure. We like. We like Tom Holman. We love. We love Tom Holman. We like. We like. We like. We like Stephen Miller. Love Miller. Miller's just got to tone it down a bit. You can't look like you enjoy it too much, right, Stephen? Take it down. We need it. We need. That's what Christy knows. Gonna be a great front porch on all of that. What do you got for us, Jane? If I. If I knew. Oh, wow. Let's give it up for J6. The. The J6ers are patriots, right? My name is John Strand, political prisoner. I was a hostage of the Biden regime until July of this year, when I was released because I won at the Supreme Court of the United States. Wow. But. But you guys are all American soldiers, right? You are American soldiers, and we are in a war. And November 5th was our readmittance to the battlefield, right? Amen. So I'm going to tell you a story about one of our great war room leaders here. Obviously, Steve, when I was in prison, my lawyer sent me the transcript of his interview with Tucker before. Right before he walked into prison. And he said, you can't lean on Steve Bannon or Trump or anyone else. It's about you, the American people. Next man up. And I was in jail when I read that. And I stood to my feet and yelled, I'm that next man up. You are that next man up. This is our time to take back our country. Next man up. Next man up. Next man up. Next man up. Next man up. Hang on. One thing you got. You got to tell. You did not. They offered you a deal and you didn't. This is so critical. This is when the feds come rolling for you. They throw all these charges. 15, this, this, this. They're going to break you financially. The thing they do is offer you a deal. Right? I was facing 23 years of prison, but they gave me a golden parachute plea deal. A single misdemeanor, essentially, almost nothing. But I would have to bend the knee and sign their lie about January 6th and that I was guilty, I was innocent, and January 6th was a lie meant to destroy all of us. I would not participate with that. So I said, you can take your plea deal to hell, and I'll walk through hell if that's where I have to go to continue standing for the truth, because that's how we save this country. One stand at a time. Wow. How do people. How do people get three. Six. Free them all. Free them all. It's a. It's a part. You guys can find me@johnstrand.com where I continue to lead the fight to free every hostage, exonerate them, restore them with financial restitution, and expose the fraud of J6 so our country can heal President Trump. We need to pardon all the J Sixers on all of them on day one. Okay.

Stephen K. Bannon
Here's your host, Stephen K. Band.
Natalie Winters
You are back in the war room. Coming at you live from the Phoenix Convention center with I think the best.
Scott Pressler
Crowd we've ever had.
Natalie Winters
This is why Donald Trump won. It was you guys. You guys sealed the deal. Steve's going to be doing some crowd work, but I think we just want to hammer again. You guys know, Frankly, I think D.C. the Swamp knows that we're all here enjoying ourselves. So they're trying to ram through some reporting, some narratives that I don't know, I'm just saying could potentially lead to the 25th Amendment being in vogue. So they get Joe Biden out of there, bring Kamala in, they get the win of the first female president. But more importantly, you know, you guys know what they want. The blanket preemptive pardons. Can we boo for the blanket preemptive pardons or sorry, sorry, I gotta be politically correct because it's new terminology now. Now they're calling it amnesty. Do we think Democrats and the establishment Republicans who screwed over this country for decades deserve amnesty or pardons? Do you guys think accountability is found in strongly worded letters or tweets or long form documents? No, no, no. What is it? It's prison sentences, right? Yo, Steve, you go to prison for four months and you know, I come out a little well fired up. You want to toss to the crowd. You want to.
Stephen K. Bannon
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, the one thing I think this narrative, Natalie, we're going to develop, because now Fox is on it, you know, the Wall Street Journal in the New York Times. And my question for the New York Times, Wall Street Journal is why did it take, you know, 40 days before Biden's gone to get this? This story has been an open secret in D.C. it was exposed when President Trump, you know, debated Biden, which, by the way, I didn't, I didn't think was smart at the time because I thought they'd get rid of Biden. And they turned out they did. We didn't know who they were going to pick, but President Trump owned him that night. I mean, you could see how imperative was. And President Trump is the best I've ever seen him. So this story is going to develop more and more and more. There, there's, this is going to be a big part. You've got the vast criminal conspiracy against Trump, but you've also got how, how did, how is this guy who actually made the decisions as commander in chief, who actually made these decisions? Who made it. You've got to go back all of the Cabinet officials and why didn't they have an obligation on the 20, they have an obligation on the 25th Amendment. If they think he's impaired, they have an, they have a fiduciary obligation to go and actually have a debate inside the Cabinet and actually vote. All of that's got to come out. I mean, Cash Patel, he's going to be stacked up with investigations. But we can walk and chew gum at the same time. Right? We can set the country right at the same time. So I think this story, Natalie, and now you've got all kind of rumors going around the Capitol. Kamala Harris canceled California, she's back in the Capitol. You got all these rumors that people around him are very upset that these blanket preemptive pardons have not been signed. And he signed pardon already for his, no, for his son or so there's a lot going on.
Natalie Winters
Remember how many of you guys read the Vanity Fair article highlighting War Room and Stephen K. Bannon? That whole. You guys should read mainstream media. You got to know the enemy in order to defeat them. That's why we play the cold opens. But it was so interesting in that article because what, for how many years have you guys been smeared as racist, as xenophobic, as sexist, choose your ad hominem attack. But in that entire article, not once did they ever try to Smear this show, our audience as anything with ad hominem angle. They said in their words that we've been right about the issue. And I said, thanks, but no thanks. We've known that. But my point that this is the same sort of limited hangout framing that I think you're seeing from the mainstream media coming now. When it comes to Joe Biden, we always know that we've been right. And whenever they start to converge with us, maybe they show a little ankle on, what was it, the COVID vaccines, the mandates. It's only because they're trying to claw back trust and legitimacy because, you know, the next plans that they have in store are a lot more sinister.
Stephen K. Bannon
This was so important because Vanity Fair, I was on two covers in a row. One was about right wing traditional Catholics and then the next month was about the war room and the, in the, and the show in the audience. As I've been trying to train Natalie, I go for the articles. Natalie goes for the ads and the clothes.
Natalie Winters
I, I do, yes.
Stephen K. Bannon
Okay, we're going to go in the audience. Who are you and where you from? I'm Amy.
Natalie Winters
My husband called in from San Diego.
Scott Pressler
We're a group of patriots for freedom.
Stephen K. Bannon
Coming here of 24 of us. Patriots for freedom, 24 of you came all the way from San Diego? Yes.
Natalie Winters
Many of us escape communism from the country of Vietnam in search for freedom.
Stephen K. Bannon
And we are very passionate about freedom.
Scott Pressler
And we don't take freedom for granted.
Stephen K. Bannon
We don't take it lightly.
Scott Pressler
And look at us, we have been rallying. Look at us.
Stephen K. Bannon
They call us white supremacists.
Scott Pressler
So that's just how racism as they.
Stephen K. Bannon
Are you afraid that the country was sliding into communism? That you saw the Marxism you saw?
Scott Pressler
Yes, we see the direction that this country headed the last four or five.
Stephen K. Bannon
Years and we don't like it.
Scott Pressler
That's why we've been following President Trump's 62 rallies, camping overnight as part of the front row.
Stephen K. Bannon
Joe, you've gone to 62 rallies.
Scott Pressler
We have been, we have been with President Trump, camping overnight to be there.
Stephen K. Bannon
Supporting him, standing up for freedom, letting.
Scott Pressler
People know why we are so passionate, passionate about freedom.
Stephen K. Bannon
Wow, Fantastic. Do you guys have a group, do you have a social media that you can go for? Let's have everybody in your group raise your hands. Oh, wow. Wow. Fantastic. Is there a site you guys have that people can go to?
Natalie Winters
It's patriotsforfreedom.
Scott Pressler
Sandiego.com and our Instagram is patriots with.
Stephen K. Bannon
An S number four freedom SD coming in hot on the Gram, thank you so much. Let's hear Give it up. Who are you and where are you from?
Natalie Winters
I'm Becky Zinn and I'm from Clarksville. I'm Becky Zinn and I'm from Clarksville, Tennessee.
Stephen K. Bannon
Okay. And tell me about your relationship with the war room.
Natalie Winters
You woke up my family, my father and you, you brought him back to the Lord and he's probably watching now and he's like, what are you talking about? But it's true. I watched it.
Stephen K. Bannon
So I hold it. We brought him back to the Lord. I've been accused of a lot of things. We have some very religious guys on.
Natalie Winters
He was there. But you brought it back into politics. You brought it all the things. And so I get to call my dad and have these amazing conversations with him that he probably used to think I was a little fringe and crazy, you know, and now he gets it. And my kids all love you. My 10 year old son sings the.
Scott Pressler
CCP song all the time.
Stephen K. Bannon
So.
Natalie Winters
But I just want to say this, that these lawmakers can stay there because they didn't care when they made my husband sit for a year and a half to two years in a 40 mile radius because he rejected the vaccine in the United States military and they pushed him out and they don't care. And as far as their pay raises, they can go for military E1 pay because if it's good enough for our military, it should be good enough for them.
Stephen K. Bannon
Amen. Let's hear it. By the way, have you guys had the same experience that that everybody when he first started talking about the shark things your lane said, man, you guys are wing nuts. You're fringe. You're not so fringe anymore, are you? That night, do you see the long face on MSNBC on the victory? Remember Rachel Maddow and them demonstick around for the the defeat. They left at midnight. Poor Jen Psaki had a poor Raggedy Ann. Right? Not the best. What do you got for us? I want to start with my buddy over here and no, we got Noah in the house. My buddy over here, Joshua. Now I met Joshua last year this same time. He had the same smile on his face then that he has now. And I just want to ask you, Josh, how excited are you now that President Trump is going to be president again? Like two, two times more excited. Wow. He's got the dance down. We love you, Josh. And then you guys know this guy, Eric Metaxas. All right. What are you doing out here? I didn't know. I thought this was. Let's make A deal. What's going on behind door number two? I'm here. Listen. I have the fortune and the misfortune of having a Socrates in the City booth right next to Bannon's show. Oh, and you guys have been a little noisy, and I'm very conflicted because I hate the noise, but I love all the noisemakers. Listen, I've been. I was here to promote Socrates in the City, and. And I gotta tell you something. I'm really here to say praise Jesus. Amen. Amen. For Steve Bannon. No, no, no. Praise Jesus for this MAGA crowd. Yes. For all these lunatics that are saner than the people who think that they're sane. And I want to say I'm the worst nightmare. I. I went to Yale University. Listen, listen. Hear me. The only worst one is Brown. Hear me out. No, no, no. Harvard's worst. I went to Yale University. I live in Manhattan, okay? I present like a Blue State Communist, but my heart bleeds. Maga. All right? And you know that about me, all right? And I want to say so. I am their worst nightmare. And God has called me. It's about cultural revolution. Because you know this. I was friends with Larry David. I know all those people. And we need to bring this revolution. Yeah. Past politics and into media. Tell Larry Davis somebody relate to. I love making a lot of money off his work on science. That's why I bring it up. Anything. Well, that's why I bring it up. Yeah, but. But. But the thing is. And you know, he's a true hater. You know this, Steve. We. As. As important as politics is, because it doesn't get more important. Cultures up. The culture's upriver. And I want you to help me. Well, gramsy, Andrew Breitbart, 101. Where do people go for Socrates in the city? Socratesinthecity.com We've got a million interviews with people you'll love. Socrates of the city.com. the Socratic method. Well, listen, you. You know this, too, right? Truth. If you're about truth, if you believe in truth, all you need to do is ask honest questions and be open and transparent. It leads people to God. And so this is kind of an oblique way, a PBS way of leading people to Jesus. That's an Upper east side. That's an Upper east side. Yale. That's going. Thank you, Eric. Always. Thank you, brother. Yeah.
Natalie Winters
I have some patriots over here who are fighting the woke transgender ideology.
Scott Pressler
Tell me about it, guys.
Stephen K. Bannon
Hi, Steve. I'm glad this crowd can walk into pieces of bubblegum because we got another really big piece of bubble gum. That's the transing, the sex change of children that's taking place. I thought that was all put to bed. That's not. No, that is still going full speed ahead. I get parents who are. Who are getting put into that same meat grinder calling me weekly. But President Trump is already taken out of the middle. This is why the NDAA wasn't perfect. Right. Still had some of that stuff in there. The military budget. I understand that it's infested all throughout the government. Correct. Is President Trump. Got to get rid of all that stuff. The transgender. Those people need help, don't they? I mean, we don't say they don't need help.
Natalie Winters
I think we have some breaking news on stage. We've been invaded by the British again.
Eric Metaxas
The British are coming. The British are coming.
Natalie Winters
How'd that work out for you, buddy? Not too long.
Stephen K. Bannon
Oh, my God.
Eric Metaxas
We're still here. We're still here.
Natalie Winters
Raheem and I are actually going to be doing a panel for this after the break.
Stephen K. Bannon
Hang on. Raheem's just coming back from the O'Keefe party.
Natalie Winters
He's still drunk.
Stephen K. Bannon
Always stay drunk. Okay, we'll be back. I tell you what, we'll take a short commercial break. We're going to be back live at AmFest24 in a moment.
Raheem Kassam
I want to warn you of a huge change that could be coming to our money in our bank accounts. First, think back to 9 11, shortly after the government pushed through the Patriot Act. This gave the government power to spy on innocent Americans by monitoring our phone and email and tracking our movement across the Internet. Now, Jim Rickards, editor of the independent financial newsletter Strategic Intelligence and New York Times best selling author, is warning about a coming event that could elevate this governmental surveillance to a terrifying new level. In fact, some of the guests I've had on the war room believe that the government will soon expand their powers to track our every move. If we say the wrong things on social media, donate to the wrong causes, buy firearms, or even vote maga, the government may be able to shut us out of our bank accounts. I can't say for sure if this will happen, but it's an interesting and dire warning. Fortunately, Jim Rickards, an American patriot and friend of mine, has made it his mission to educate us on what he believes is coming and how to protect yourself from the possibility of programmable money. Watch Jim's warning video now before it's censored. Like I've been in the past, go to rickardswarroom.com that's rickardswarroom.com now to see.
Stephen K. Bannon
The video, here's your host, Stephen K. Band.
Natalie Winters
You are back in the war room. This is what a meeting again of the National Pulse up on stage. You guys like the national polls? All right, Raheem, there's so much going on, we're trying to decide what to talk about, but we didn't even know. So I think the audience would probably love to hear your thoughts on everything that's been going on, how Joe Biden is what never been the president. That's something we've already known. But all this Wall Street Journal reporting, why you think they're finally embracing that narrative that we've known to be true for so long right now at this time?
Eric Metaxas
Yeah, look, I come from the Stephen K. Bannon school of thought, as everybody knows. And my perspective on this right now is that, you know, one of the first things that has to happen in after January 20th is getting to the bottom of 2020. And I think a lot of people want to very quickly move on very quickly, trying to brush all that under the rug. But this guy is shown time and time again and all of the people around him and all of the apparatus surrounding him is now proving time and time again that this was an illegitimate president of an illegitimate regime. That was an illegitimate election. We all saw it happen. And we were gaslit. We were gaslit over and over again. People's lives were ruined as a result of that election and was a fraudulent falsehood perpetuated not just on this country, but on the whole world. And look what's happened to the world as a result of that election. Everything's gone down the path. If we don't re litigate 2020, then we're going nowhere.
Stephen K. Bannon
Hang on, hang on. This is why it's important. Rahim. You have 1.7 million people dead or wounded in Ukraine. Hell, you got all these people dead in Gaza. You know, you got the, they got the attack. You got them all dead. None of that would have happened if Donald Trump had been reelected. Right? This is complete. We make the case again why we must get to the bottom of this. We don't have a choice. This, this is the railhead of everything.
Eric Metaxas
The Democrats love to talk about election, integrity and all this. Quite frankly, I know it's early in the morning, but complete and utter BS that they peddled to the public. What happened here was nothing less than a national embarrassment on a global scale, and it led to blood on their hands. Directly, you have to appreciate how many people not just have lost their livelihoods but have lost their lives as a result of that illegitimate election.
Stephen K. Bannon
Amen.
Eric Metaxas
And if we don't do anything about it, then frankly, we have blood on our hands too.
Stephen K. Bannon
Amen.
Eric Metaxas
Morally incumbent upon us to.
Stephen K. Bannon
Do you guys agree with Rahim? Seriously? Tell President Trump we gotta have cashes back and everybod price back to get to the bottom of this. And this is a priority.
Natalie Winters
And remember Steve, they spent, what was it, hundreds of millions of dollars censoring all of you in this audience if you even dared to speak up about it. Remember they pre bunked the laptop, the hard drive.
Stephen K. Bannon
Hold it, Hang on, hang on, hang on, Natalie. Hang on, Natalie.
Natalie Winters
It's only war.
Stephen K. Bannon
Hang on, hang on, hang on, Natalie. Jim Jordan Comer put out a book and Jim Jordan put out 17,000 page report the other day, promote the book. Hold it. What are you, what are you bitching about? Jordan's come out with a 17,000 page report. Aren't you happy with that?
Natalie Winters
Well, what did we say earlier in the show? Accountability is found in prison sentences. Not strongly worded letters and mean tweets And Fox News.
Stephen K. Bannon
Where are the criminal referrals from the oversight committee where the criminal. They're four years.
Eric Metaxas
Years.
Stephen K. Bannon
Four years. This is why the country's in this shape. This is controlled opposition they could do.
Natalie Winters
Last night they released a 17,000 page essentially compendium of all the investigations that the weaponization committee conducted, whether it was the lies about Ukraine, the COVID vaccines, the stolen elections, which might I add, it was you guys and actual investigative reporters like Mike Benz, Darren Beatty who did so much of the work. But Steve, you know what the worst part of it is? In that same 24 hour period, they wanted to ram through a spending bill that would have continued the very global Engagement center that they were pretending to expose. It's all a sham.
Stephen K. Bannon
Hold it, hold it. You got to remember on the Global Engagement center, that was an act of commission. They actually put that in there with everything to do.
Natalie Winters
Section 301, it had its own section. They didn't even try to hide it. How dumb do they think we are, Rahim?
Stephen K. Bannon
How dumb do they think we are?
Eric Metaxas
They think we're so dumb that we're not going to have Liz Cheney summering in Danbury. And I think it's about time, quite frankly. Who wants to see Betty Thompson go to jail? Nancy Pelosi, jail I don't believe. I am not a unifier, I am a divider. And right now we have to make this division between the good guys and the bad guys. You like to have to prosecute that extreme prejudice.
Stephen K. Bannon
Hang on, hang on, hang on. With the way you unite the country is show the lies that they were because people were sitting there, they kind of feel something's wrong, but they can't put their finger on it. Right. We need to show the country in a full, absolutely transparent. You have to show the country you want to unify the country. Get to the bottom of 2020, get to the bottom of J6 and get to the bottom of where the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times are taking you right now with this reporting. If you just pursue this, that will unite the country at least, or unite 2/3 of 75%. And that's all you need.
Eric Metaxas
By the way, the Wall street journal report cited 55, 0 sources. And what I have to say to that is where you don't get 50 people coming to you immediately after the election. That's too short a timeframe. So where was Murdoch's Wall Street Journal on the run up to the election with this information? They hid it from the public at the same time as. As people were casting their ballots all across the United States of America. You can't get 50 sources right after November 5th. They've been working on this for months and months and they hid it from people.
Stephen K. Bannon
And if you want to come out.
Eric Metaxas
Right now, I'm supposed to sing that crazy.
Stephen K. Bannon
If Kamala, if Kamala Harris had won, it was totally buried, right? Totally buried. So hang on a second. I said hang on. Steve, I need to introduce you to somebody, somebody very special. This is the mother of Rachel Morin. Can you tell us the story, ma'am, real quick? Yeah.
Natalie Winters
Okay.
Scott Pressler
Rachel was a 37 year old mom of five. She went for a walk on a trail inside our town. It's a very open trail we've walked as a family for over 25 years. An illegal immigrant was hiding in the woods, saw her, grabbed her from behind, raped her, strangled her, murdered her and stuffed her into a drain pipe. We found her the next day. It was the. Probably the most devastating news that a parent could ever receive is that your child has been murdered so brutally. It was 10 months, amazingly. And it's because of prayer across the nation, across the world, people praying that they were able to find the suspected murderer. And so our trial is in April and we're just. God has done so many things in the meantime, but that's her story. And I'll be on stage at 11:30 to kind of expand it a little bit. But thank you for the opportunity and for meeting you.
Stephen K. Bannon
So tell me, what would you like to see the outcome of the trial for your daughter?
Scott Pressler
If this person is truly guilty and everyone is innocent until proven guilty. But if he's truly guilty, I hope that he gets the maximum sentence, which in Maryland is life without parole. They don't do the death penalty. But he'll still have more than my daughter has. He'll have breath in his lungs. He'll be able to see his daughter and his family. My daughter doesn't have any of that and we don't have any of that. So it's still a merciful outcome.
Stephen K. Bannon
About her children, what's happening with that and how can people help for the family?
Scott Pressler
Her, she has an adult daughter who just had a baby. So my daughter would have been a grandma this year. And then she has four younger ones. They all live with their dads. We do have a GoFundMe that we've paid for the funeral cost and we've moved all the monies into a trust fund for the children. And so at the moment I think the GoFundMe is still open. I'm not sure. But you could go there or you could contact our attorney. He's on, he's, you know, online. People can reach out to him.
Stephen K. Bannon
Maryland has very liberal open about sanctuary says things like that. What is your thoughts on that? And people are coming to this story now because of your daughter. What are your thoughts about why is an individual like this even in this country?
Scott Pressler
He's in this country because Biden and Harris opened the borders. This is an invasion of our country and it's such a security risk for every single American. I think that the federal government should sanction and defund sanctuary cities and cut off federal funding for states that support sanctuary cities.
Stephen K. Bannon
But what about the authorities that actually did this when these investigations show? Because we are going to investigate how this happened because of what it wasn't cast at the border. This was a well thought through plan. When we actually show a couple of years of the officials at dhs, at Homeland Security, all the way up to the White House that consciously wanted to do this, what do you think ought to happen to them?
Scott Pressler
I think they should all go to jail. Bottom line. I mean you can't break the law, say it's okay to break the law and then punish law abiding citizens. That's just, it's ridiculous. They should go to jail.
Stephen K. Bannon
Thank you so much. 11:30, 11:30 up on the main stage. Great honor. Thank you so much. Fantastic. Do your daughter proud. Thank you. Just terrible.
Eric Metaxas
Just by the way, Steve, Steve, this is my entire point, right? This is not theoretical, this is not hypothetical. These are, are the people who have suffered at the hands of this illegitimate regime. And these are the people that we demand justice for. We demand justice, we demand retribution, we demand compensation. And we will set our faces like flint to try and get it. Like this is what this next four years is all about, is settling those scores and settling those beefs. And we're not going to stand back and watch these things happen time and time again. You saw what happened in Germany yesterday, ladies and gentlemen, the disgraceful operation that Angela Merkel pulled back in 2015. Again, blood on the hands of the regime. It can't keep happening.
Stephen K. Bannon
Unbelievable. Talk about is every up to speed of what happened in Germany. Rahim, you want to give him just a quick highlight? I mean, this is the problem. Merkel and these guys, we're now, what, 10 years into the Syrian civil war, it's still a problem. What happened, what happened in Germany specifically.
Eric Metaxas
Look, you had yesterday and yet another. And people just are now kind of dealing with it. Like that terrible mayor of London, Sadiq Khan. You know, he once said, oh, it's part and parcel of living in a major city. Is radical Islamic domestic terrorism part and parcel of living in a western city, ladies and gentlemen? Hell no. Hell no. And it happens all the time. And people overlook it. From the churches being burned all across Europe to this car driving through the Christmas market in Germany yesterday, massacring people on the streets, these are the things that we cannot allow to happen anymore in the west, in Western civilization. It's just, you know, the last four years we've seen entire fecklessness and uselessness out of the Department of Homeland Security, out of the FBI. One of the greatest things that's going to happen is Cash Patel going into the FBI and cleaning.
Stephen K. Bannon
All right, Cash. How about that? Shane Zirkel to America Best.
Natalie Winters

We have a. We have a war room correction here. This is. This is why I love the posse. I tell people. I was giving an interview the other day. I said, the single hardest thing we have on the show is staying ahead of the audience. The audience you can see in the chats. I mean, we got to work really, really hard because you guys are getting information all the time. No, I was just saying. I've been hearing you say that about Wild Bill Hickok and Robert Ford, and it was Jesse James. And each time I heard Robert Ford shot Jesse James in the back. And every time you do it, I tell my wife it's not. It's not. It's. And she said, well, Texas. So I texted it to the war or, you know, your email or whatever it is. So who shot Wild Bill Hickok? Jack McCall. Yeah. So Robert Ford. Robert Ford is Jesse James and Jack McCall was Wild Bill Hickok. You don't make too many mistakes, Steve. I just want to say how grateful me and my wife are that you're on TV because. Where is my wife? There she is filming. Come on up here. Come on in. Only because we are so grateful for the knowledge that you've given all of us and because we'd like to have the politicians remember that they work for us and we are the people. And I'm gonna give you a scoop. You married up? Yeah, I sure did, boss. I did. I noticed that a lot. I'm just saying, guys. I'm just saying, guys, thank you very much for saying that, by the way. We appreciate it so much. Thank you. Thanks for telling everything. Thank you very much. Robert Ford, Jesse James, Jack McCall, Wild Bill Hickey. It's interesting. They took out two of the great guys in the West. Although I guess if you're not a Southern sympathizer. Jesse James, a little questioner, but they took out two by shooting them in the back. That's what happened the other day. This guy, right? You see the seething anger underneath it. Hey there. The wealthy in this country and the people control known this country are either going to get in Tune with you, right? The common sense people where we want to take this country peacefully, but we're gonna fight but peacefully or you're gonna have a French revolution. You see online, I mean, they're treating this guy like a hero, right? He shot a guy in the back, laid in weight, shot him point blank in the back. Never had a chance. Right. And they're treating him like some sort of hero. That's no good. We are, we're a God loving country. And, and that's why we won this time is because the moral values and the economical values that we have that we need to keep in this country. So we're great. Like you said, we were on the world stage. That's how we got that way we worked. That's a Lincoln. Yeah. Lincoln said we're out on the world stage. We're on the world stage today. Now you've got, there's a huge thing in the New York Times which I talk about President, the first step back, which President Trump got there to get folks out of prison. If you, if you rehabilitate yourself. We're cutting these sentences down. The New York Times is now finally reporting today the Biden regime has not enforced, have not even brought the first step back up with the prisoners because they don't want President Trump to get the political victory of looking out for people. So what are we going to do about it? That's right. Well, I have an executive ready, executive order that's ready to go.

Bannon's War Room - Episode 4145: Final Day Of AMFest Cont.
Release Date: December 21, 2024
Host: Stephen K. Bannon
Organization: WarRoom.org
In Episode 4145 of "Bannon's War Room," Stephen K. Bannon and his co-hosts engage in a fervent discussion addressing the legitimacy of President Joe Biden's administration, the influence of the Deep State, and various critical political issues facing the United States. The episode features contributions from notable figures such as Van Jones, Raheem Kassam, Scott Pressler, and Eric Metaxas, among others. The panel delves into allegations of governmental misconduct, media manipulation, and the urgent need for accountability within the current political landscape.
The episode opens with Van Jones expressing concerns about the legitimacy of President Biden's presidency, citing a Wall Street Journal investigation that interviewed 50 individuals familiar with Biden's operations. Jones highlights questions surrounding key decision-making processes, particularly during the Afghanistan withdrawal:
"If the President was as diminished as this story makes it sound, that would be a huge problem. And it could explain why certain decisions were made that turned out to be catastrophic and why no apologies were ever made."
— Van Jones [00:00]
Stephen K. Bannon counters these points by suggesting that Biden's administration has been effectively managed by unelected officials, thereby undermining the President's authority:
"We've apparently had a president that's so diminished that his staff has been hiding it from the American people and making key decisions on behalf of our government..."
— Stephen K. Bannon [02:29]
Bannon and his co-hosts discuss the concept of the Deep State, portraying it as a powerful, unelected group manipulating government actions to serve their own interests. Natalie Winters underscores the Deep State's control over Biden:
"But here's what's so interesting. What do you guys think about this? ... the Deep State has commandeered the illegitimate Biden regime..."
— Natalie Winters [06:15]
Bannon reinforces this narrative by questioning the transparency and accountability of high-level aides and advisors within the administration:
"We can set the country right at the same time. So I think this story, Natalie, and now you've got all kind of rumors going around the Capitol..."
— Stephen K. Bannon [07:24]
The panel scrutinizes President Biden's cognitive abilities and the administration's efforts to control his public appearances and responses. Van Jones points out the limited number of Cabinet meetings:
"When the Cabinet met all nine times, which is the least in the last several decades that a president has had their whole Cabinet together in an entire term..."
— Van Jones [00:00]
Bannon responds by highlighting the infrequency of these meetings compared to previous administrations, implying a lack of cohesive leadership:
"He’s met with the whole cabinet twice a year. I mean, President Trump will meet and..."
— Stephen K. Bannon [07:57]
A significant portion of the discussion revolves around allegations of fraud in the 2020 presidential election. Eric Metaxas emphasizes the necessity of investigating these claims to restore democratic integrity:
"If we don’t litigate 2020, then we’re going nowhere."
— Eric Metaxas [30:10]
Bannon supports this stance, linking the legitimacy of the current administration to the unresolved issues from the 2020 election:
"This next four years is all about settling those scores and settling those beefs."
— Eric Metaxas [40:03]
Natalie Winters discusses a purported Wall Street Journal report asserting that President Biden was never the legitimate president, reinforcing the Deep State narrative:
"The Wall Street Journal has confirmed something that I’m sure everyone in this audience has known, which is that Joe Biden is and never has been the real president."
— Natalie Winters [04:43]
Bannon questions the timing and motives behind the Wall Street Journal's revelations, suggesting they were withheld to maintain the administration's facade:
"Why did it take, you know, 40 days before Biden’s gone to get this? This story has been an open secret in D.C."
— Stephen K. Bannon [17:47]
The panel addresses concerns over immigration policies, attributing rising crime rates and national security risks to Biden and Harris's border policies:
"He’s in this country because Biden and Harris opened the borders. This is an invasion of our country and it’s such a security risk for every single American."
— Scott Pressler [38:45]
Scott Pressler advocates for stringent measures against sanctuary cities and increased federal oversight to prevent illegal immigration and associated crimes:
"Sanctuary cities... the federal government should sanction and defund sanctuary cities and cut off federal funding for states that support sanctuary cities."
