This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people. Christians not got a free shot. All these networks lying about the people. The people have had a belly full of it. I know you don't like hearing that. I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it. It's going to happen.

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.

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. Banner. It is Friday 23rd May, year of alert 2025. Welcome back for the second hour of the morning edition of THE WAR Room. Just some programming notes tonight at 6, Todd Benzeman and others. We're spending the entire hour about the state of Texas, particularly these bills are in front of the Texas legislature regarding working with ICE to, to make sure deportations, illegal aliens happen, all of this. So make sure you stick around. Todd Bensman, kind of his exit interview. Todd on Tuesday starts as the right hand man for Homans over dhs. So Todd Bensman, one of our contributors last couple of years, today his exit interview here in the war Room. Natalie Winters, you've built a great reputation investigating the Chinese Communist Party. Is this shot across the bow at Harvard, a show that the Trump administration is now understands and are digging down the Wall Street Journal's great piece today about the digital fortress, fortress China they've been building since they ripped up the trade deal in 2019 are people. Is your sense that both at state, National Security Council, obviously the economic guys, they realize that they're at economic war with us and both sides are kind of digging in now, regardless of how any type of trade deal is put together?

Well, I think it's our own version of unrestricted warfare, Right. I think if you juxtapose, we were just talking about, right, what Christopher Wray, what Trump1 had done in terms of going after whether it was the Farah violations, the thousand tests, talents, program violation violations, a sort of uncanny, uncomfortable overlap between Chinese grants used to pull or decouple Western elites and researchers from the west to have them sort of boost not just the technical, the technology and energy infrastructure, but the civil military, fusion, the outright military capabilities of the prc. But you have to juxtapose what Trump, President Trump is doing. His FBI, meanwhile, you have What? James Comey, they're so willing to talk tough about calling for assassinations against President Trump. Call him out as an autocrat, as a dictator. They don't have 1,1 millionth of that intensity when they call out the threat that the PRC poses. Right. Talk about a double standard. You want to know who's bought and paid for? Look at the people. You think he's going to put 86 CCP, 86 Xi? No, these people are completely controlled. And you know what? They're controlled because the prc, as this audience well knows, has been waging unrestricted warfare in the style that the Trump administration is now engaging in to the point where basically all of our rare earths, they dominate that market, but more importantly, the processing. So even these batteries, we are reliant on them for the magnets, you name it, the chips. And you see the tech Bros pushing to export more of these Nvidia chips, a lot of these sort of semiconductor chips to companies that are essentially just proxies, if not outright subsidiaries to the prc, particularly the UAE and Qatar. And it's extremely concerning. I think that you've always sort of seen, seen the China threat dismissed as something that, oh, we're being, you know, hairs on fire, pants on fire. Any issue that we've ever been called hyperbolic or fear mongering over, we've actually been right. And the whole psyop that they waged by importing foreign students from the PRC into the United States at elite institutions like Harvard was to anesthetize and desensitize the American people to the threat that the Chinese Communist Party poses. The fact that any Chinese individual, foreign national who is over here, company business, you name it, is subject to Article 7 of China's National Intelligence Law and can be requisitioned to spy to advance the national interests of China however they deem fit. They're at war with us and we should stop educating the very same soldiers that we may come to meet one day if it ever turns kinetic on the battlefield.
