Stephen K. Bannon (3:11)
War ROOM here's your host, Stephen k. Ban Monday 27th January year of a Lord 2025. So critical path of the show tonight, President Trump actually had the time. I might have had the time correct earlier but I think it's gotten rescheduled. So President Trump now was supposed to speak at 5 at Doral to the Republican conference. He's running late. It's going to be at least 5:30, maybe later. Scott Bessant, Secretary treasury is going to his vote on the Senate floor is going to be at 5:30. We're going to follow that. Charlie Gasparino is reporting that Scott's being given a dual role at the consumer finance that fiasco. If that actually protected working class people, I would be for it. But I think it's just a mess to make restrict it ends up restricting lending to them getting access to capital. So he's going to oversee that at least temporarily. News flash also Pacific Palisades, the dumpster showed up and the authorities there have actually opened it back up for the residents to go in and start cleaning up the mess of what's left of their lives and their homes. Victory President Trump. That's Donald J. Trump out there on Friday to basically say hey Karen Bass and Newsom and these guys. The two seconds he spent with Newsom, you got to get, you got to stand out of the way of Americans getting back there and in setting things right, getting back and having some future and at least having a hope for a future massive develops the biggest one. $1.8 trillion wiped out and that's not a definitive loss. Could always come back, may come back but $1.8 trillion down on the combined American equity markets, including the video, the chip maker, down almost $600 billion. Think about that for a second. There are industries that don't have $600 billion of market cap or equity value. $600 billion, one stock, one day. And we're finding out as Andrew Ross Sorkin sitting there going, hey, there might have been 50,000 Nvidia chips into this. Nobody knows. Why is that a big deal, Mr. Bannon? Because they're not supposed to be any Nvidia chips over in China. It's restricted just a. To set the framework here at 6:00, we're gonna have some folks come in and talk big picture on this. If President Trump's finished, we'll have that. I've set the frame here. But number one, why did the intelligence services miss this? Once again, why did they miss this? And they say, Steve, how do you know they missed this? Well, I know they missed this. So they missed this. Otherwise you wouldn't have guys like Andreessen, these people out there. Others are shocked as they were the intelligence service. Another miss. Just saying, only pay, you know, hundreds of billions of dollars for it. John Radcliffe Venture, Pero's daily wires reporting right now that John Ratcliffe is actually meeting with people inside the CIA. And guess what's bubbling up? You know, it's bubbling up because yesterday they announced that the. The real report of the CIA is that the. The pandemic came from a lab leak in Wuhan. Where did I hear that before? Oh, yeah, that's right in the show. War room pandemic back in January 23rd of. Or January 15th or 16th, whatever date it was of 2020. That would be five years ago, a half a decade. People inside the CIA now are saying it's getting to Ratcliffe. I think they're working on a report that says, wait for it. That might have been deliberate, like a bioweapon that had done gain of function to power up. And then it was released by the Chinese Communist Party, the pla and the Chinese Communist Party. Once again, folks, as much as I know people don't want to deal with this. The Chinese Communist Party is at war with the United States of America. It's called unrestricted warfare. The textbook of that was written by two colonels who are kind of the information warfare guys that were assigned to look at the Gulf War, not the war in Iraq and Afghanistan. For you youngsters, we had a war before that. We had a war to quote unquote, saved Kuwait for democracy. Remember that? Remember all the phony Cheney Stuff they were putting out at that time that, you know, all the. There are all these Democrats in Kuwait and the Iraqis are going into the baby, into the hospitals and bandit and the babies. All lies to get us to fend the oil of Saudi Arabia. Hey, at the time, maybe you had to do it. We had a Gulf War. The Chinese looked at that and studied that because we won so quickly, so overwhelmingly, so easily, with a handful of casualties. I think 100 dead, massive victory, and could have gone all the way to Baghdad. But I think Bush made the decision at the time. He says, hey, look, my thing was to stop this, not to go take that, because then we're going to own it. Colin Powell and others talked him out of it. What they came up, this was the conclusion to the beginning of the book, which was their textbook unrestricted warfare. They said, foreign devils, that would be us foreign devils, really know how to pull up alongside, like Nelson, unsheath the guns and let it go, let it rip, and they will win. They're very good at that. They've perfected that. That's exactly how we don't want to fight them. So let's go sun tzu to the 10th power. In fact, we have to get in a shooting war. That by definition means we're losing or going to lose against the foreign devil. So here's what we do. We have to go all types of other warfare, cyber warfare, information warfare, political warfare, economic warfare, all of it to destroy and beat into submission foreign devils. They've been at this war for a while. In May of 2019, right before the pandemic, in May of 2019, when Lighthizer and Navarro had negotiated this amazing deal under President Trump to really seven verticals, to take all the problems with state capitalism, the entire economic model they have, which is destroying wages around the world and basically has gutted manufacturing around the world, we had all that solved. They had taken a year and a half to do this. We rejected the first thing that came to us in the summer of 2017. President Trump had the back of the hardest of the hard cores. Lighthizer Navarro, Stephen Miller, Stephen K. Bannon. He chucked the Jared and the Cohen and the accommodationist, and really Mnuchin and Cohen were the ones that were adamant. But we couldn't do this. We had to accommodate after they chucked the deal, because they looked at the deal and said, hey, if we signed this deal, we're kind of be the junior partner here for, like, ever, so we're not going to do that. And they declared a people's war in May of 2019. And since that, they've been all over us. Remember, we just had the biggest cyber attack in history on the telephone companies. They had a cyber attack on the Treasury Department. There are billions, billions. Let me repeat this. That's billions with a B, with a capital B. Billions of cyber attacks daily, daily from the Chinese Communist Party, state actors and others who work with them. This is why I keep telling you at home, title lock. Hey, you may have people that have fallen out with you internally that could get to your title, but trust me, they got state actors and non state actors that are an employee of state actors, actors. They're looking for every aspect to go after the American people because they know that as long as we're the hegemon, they're nowhere. And they're financed on Wall Street. They're everywhere. They're in every research university. Everywhere, everywhere, everywhere, everywhere. Chinese Communist Party. Remember when the kids come over, the young people come over here. Unless they're true dissidents and have left and I mean a hardcore anti ccp and you can vet that. All these people required by law to give information reports monthly to the CCP and to be and to be in the work of the ccp. So you had all these cyber attacks, you got economic warfare, you got all this. And President Trump's come up, he said, I don't know, maybe we're going to do 10% tariffs, maybe we're going to do 20%. He actually said one time a month, a couple, a couple of months ago, 60%. That's 6, 0. The Chinese Communist Party is barely hanging on with their economic model. I mean, they're going to power through this as they see it, but the people there, it's hard. Not the stuff you see on tv, but in the provinces, it's hard. And there's a lot of unrest by Lao Bajing. What happened on this, what happened here, I don't believe they would actually be so in your face to show you a Sputnik moment. They don't want foreign devils to wake up from their sleep. And they particularly don't want people like myself who are adamantly and sworn to assist Lao Baijing to take down these murderous demons, the Chinese Communist Party, to have any kind of advantage, to have anything say, look, look at. These guys are bad. They want to do everything as Deng showed them, keep your light hidden until you're dominant. What I think this was, and one of the most principled things is give a love tap to the United States Rattle the equity markets, rattle the bond market, Get a lot of pressure on President Trump that he can't just reorient his economic model to not put pressure on them. This is, this is a wake up call. We just lost $2 trillion in market cap. May make that up, may not make it up. The Wall Street's got a saying, don't catch a falling knife. The knife's falling right now. Nvidia has been the darling when you talk about the high stock market and all the stock run around the stock market so great. It's called the MAG7. They've really driven it. That's magnificent. Seven is the seven tech stocks have driven, I don't know, 90% of the value. I think the S and P is actually if you look at the industrial companies down, this was a wake up call Sputnik moment or Psyop combo platter, maybe. A lot of the young charges that I know are not that overwhelmed by what's happening. There's something here that doesn't make sense. And on another level, something makes total sense. I will say this now. We are playing with forces that could very quickly get away from the control of man. And you have nothing but bad hombres that are at the control levers. Now think about this for a second. The Chinese Communist Party, whether this is 100% accurate or if it took 50,000 Navidian, which you shouldn't have any because of the technology controls, they are making big progress and they're pumping money in here. This is made in China 20, 20, 25. Remember that? Looked at my calendar, it's 2025. They've been at this for at least a decade or longer, pumping mass amounts of money in this. As a President Trump didn't have enough worries. This is an American in crisis. But we're punching our way out of this daily with action, action, action. Short commercial break. We're going to the great state of Texas.
