Host
Exhorting his colleagues this year he said do not anticipate what a dictator wants and accede to it in advance do not obey in advance whenever you see those words do not obey in advance you are seeing tim snyder's ideas at work in the world and that admonition has wormed its way into all of our consciences right start by not giving in lesson one.
Todd Woods
One of the other.
Host
Things i'm going to talk about with tim tonight is another one of his lessons that sometimes comes to me in the middle of the night which is his lesson eighteen and that is be calm when the unthinkable arrives tim snyder somehow got that essential idea down to six words be calm when the unthinkable arrives it now lives in my brain every day and it lives in the world as unforgettable guidance for anybody who does have a tyrannical nightmare unfolding where they live do you think that our national reaction should be to those to those prosecutions and relatedly to the administration's efforts to characterize all these overwhelmingly nonviolent protests against them as if they're all riots and they're all constructed nefarious criminal.
Rachel Maddow
Dangerous things yeah i mean we should all know and i'm sure we all do know that this is how authoritarian regimes react to any kind of physical opposition you get characterized as terrorists and criminals and foreigners and so on this is absolutely authoritarianism one hundred one and we should help make sure that in sensitive issues like this the media don't just repeat the what the leaders say because when they repeat it they normalize it a second thing is to make sure that we have the positive language on our side that we recollect that not only in this country but pretty much everywhere there isn't progress towards these things that we like to call freedom and justice and democracy without some friction it just never happened from every moment your preferred moment in american history whatever it is the woman's suffrage movement the civil rights movement whatever it is there's friction there is always friction and so we have to have the positive language the third thing is we have to help people be heroes nobody's a hero on their own like somebody does a little courageous thing but the people who make them heroes are the ones who donate their legal defense are the ones who write the articles about them the ones who celebrate those little acts of courage that is on us to do because you mentioned a number of people but there are more people who could be mentioned right and we need to prop them up and the final thing i think legally and i'm just talking to all you lawyers out there because this is chicago and like a lot of you are going to be lawyers we we have to go on the offensive legally we can't just keep waiting for them to sue us and prosecute us we have to find ways to file civil suits against them which are going to be more plausible than their suits against us and get them on the back foot and consume their resources and and force the press to cover our suits against them we're winning a lot of cases defensively and that's great but i think we should be going on the offense as well because like the things yeah.
Host
When you started wearing a whistle why the whistle occurred to you and how it sort of took off from from a small scale idea to being as big as it is.
Community Activist
At the beginning i just wanted to inform my community about ice agents and to take cover so i actually have a whistle.
Host
There it is and you.
Community Activist
Know people said what is the whistle going to do and i was to inform the community that ice agents are around if you are undocumented lock your doors lock your gates lock your windows and you know stay safe and people were still doubting that and then we talked to our brothers and sisters over in la and they said baltazard when they came they came like savages and they came through our schools through our parks and our hospitals and they turned off the cell phone towers with a stingray and then i said well you can't turn off the whistle because.
Steve Bannon
We.
Community Activist
Had a caravan of twelve people and we went around to the temp agencies and we gave the employers or the employees know your right cards we said in case there's a rate at your job site you know don't say nothing don't sign nothing and ask for an attorney then we went to our day laborers they stand out at home depot and also educated them on knowing their rights and then we had workshops after mass at the schools and we prepared people to know about their rights not to open the door without a judicial warrant signed by a judge then we showed them all the tricks that they use and even tom holman says chicago was a very difficult city.
Steve Bannon
And you.
Community Activist
Know i have to say we have to educate our community because education is key if you're educated they're not going to do much to you but if you're not educated they would take advantage and that's why so many people has out of court themselves because they didn't know that they had rights and right now we're educating our community about the constitution what is the purpose of the constitution and we have to defend the constitution from foreign and domestic terrorism.
Steve Bannon
First off will this work will president trump's pardon actually free tina peters no this is a lawless act it's an act of intimidation and it has no basis in american law our system of government gives states authority to run their own criminal justice systems as you noted there was a trial there was a conviction by a jury there's an appeal to the state courts all that is happening under the rule of law this president.
John Case

John Case
Sure thanks for having me steve so i'm the denver lawyer for tina and peter tickton as you know is one of the national lawyers so we yesterday received a copy of president trump's pardon and we drove down to the la vista correctional facility in pueblo we went up to the door we i arrived about ten minutes before six when i got out of the car and walked there to the to the front door there were three doc department of corrections officers in wearing camos who greeted me asked me who i was and what i was doing i told him my name's john case i'm here to serve you a copy of president trump's pardon of tina peters and i'm asking you to deliver her to us to me right now through so that i can take her home and he said just a minute and then a woman came out and said my name's michelle smith and i'm the assistant director of the department of corrections and then she pulled out a piece of paper and read me a prepared statement that was typed out on the piece of paper and it said essentially that trump's pardon was not going to be recognized by the state of colorado because he didn't have authority to pardon tina peters and then i said well are you asking me to leave and she said yes and so i thanked her and shook her hand and we i went over to the car we waited another about forty minutes and in the meantime peter tickton sent michelle smith an email trying to give her a second opportunity to honor the presidential pardon and then i went back to the front door and the same three camo dressed doc officers greeted me and i said i just came back to see if you guys changed your mind and they laughed and said no we're not changing our minds here we're all put away for the night so you can leave so at that point we left and drove back to denver so we believe that president trump's pardon is valid tina was performing a federal duty when she preserved election records before the secretary of state destroyed them and the secretary of state destroyed them in mesa county and in all counties in colorado where dominion voting systems is used which is sixty two out of sixty four counties and what was destroyed were the digital records of the twenty twenty election federal law fifty two usc two hundred seven zero one requires county clerks to preserve election records for twenty two months after every federal election so tina was doing her job to preserve the records she was the only clerk in colorado who did that and then provided a forensic image for experts to analyze and the experts who have looked at this image that tina preserved say that it shows fourteen vulnerabilities in the voting system and it shows that there was likely manipulation in the twenty twenty election by some outside bad actor or by a computer program that was running inside the software so those are the conclusions of the experts one of those experts is a venezuelan national who has fled to the united states who formerly ran the situation room in caracas where elections were rigged in venezuela using smartmatic software the dominion software used throughout the united states and throughout colorado is a variation of the smartmatic software that was used to rig elections in venezuela so.

You'Re talking about venezuela what's happening there of course we have a carry a strike group and a in an amphibious ready group also media is reporting this morning the wall street journal more assets are flowing into the region through puerto rico more troops more assets more drones all of it do you think there's any correlation between venezuela and what happened what's happening in venezuela and what they've done to manipulate obviously maduro lost the last election by a blowout but he's still the sitting president and what happened and what tina peters found in colorado.
John Case
Yeah so here's the connection the same engineers who worked for smartmatic and created the software that rigs elections in venezuela some of those same engineers work for dominion voting systems in the us and we cannot have an insecure election system that's not transparent so what tina peters mission is to get rid of these voting machines she's working at it even from inside the walls of the prison and that's our mission these things are a menace to our freedoms why would we want a voting system that can be hacked and manipulated by foreign adversaries the center for election fraud is in venezuela the engineers there were trained look.
Steve Bannon
Hang on we're not machine guys here we're mailing ballot guys how they stole it they definitely stole it but we're always open to the machine because there's so many bizarre things about the machines but didn't tina peters went to trial they found her guilty i think of seven felonies look she's a gold star mother she's in ill health she's held i think in a medium security women's prison in colorado which my understanding is quite dangerous with the inmates there she's being abused and picked on all the time when she's not in solitary confinement but just for the audience didn't you guys have every opportunity to present all this evidence at her case her trial before she was found guilty of seven of seven felonies by a jury of her peers especially cause some of these some of the charges were very specific to what you're talking about today correct.
John Case
No the charge first of all she was convicted of four felonies she was acquitted of three and we we had no chance to present evidence about why tina did what she did so why she did what she did is she knew that the secretary of state was going to erase the digital election records that she as county clerk was obligated to preserve by federal law and once she knew that she made arrangements with a qualified cybersecurity consultant to make an image of the mesa county election management server hard drive so those records would be preserved the image that she made was legal the gentleman who did it was authorized to enter the room tina had the legal authority to authorize that gentleman to do the work that he did and the cameras were turned off to protect the identity of that person who had requested that his identity not be revealed because he was being hunted by the cartels for his work for the fbi in a child trafficking internet operation so tina honored his request that his identity be kept secret the cameras were turned off but that was legal the cameras were not required to be turned on and the convictions occurred because his identity was misrepresented as gerald wood instead of his real name conan hayes gerald wood voluntarily agreed to let this gentleman use his county key card to get into the room and identify himself as gerald wood gerald wood agreed to that in advance so there was no identity theft there was no conspiracy to.
Steve Bannon
Seal identity what john why did why did the judge not allow you guys to make that case and is that the basis one of the basis for your appeal i mean it's kind of shocking that these fundamental things of her intent and what she was seeing was not allowed in why why did the judge rule that what how did he.
John Case
Come to that ruling he said that it was irrelevant if you can believe it he said it was irrelevant and that it would confuse the jury if they knew that that the machines potentially could be rigged and that tina was performing a federal duty he refused to instruct the jury on tina's main defense which was execution of a public duty the judge refused to allow the jury even to see a copy of the federal statute that tina was obeying fifty two usc two zero seven zero one so we you know we only one side of the case was presented the prosecution side we didn't get to present ours and that's the basis of the.
Steve Bannon
Appeal that's the basis of the appeal they're saying that that appeal and what you're doing there is part of the reason that they're not going to at least one of the excuses they use can you just get us up to speed on what is the overall plan here the president is pardoned there's now this huge controversy whether that has traction you got justice working on a bunch of stuff i hear there's grand juries all over the place can you just give us the big picture of what's the effort and how president trump's pardon ties into because what this audience wants is tina peters freedom and particularly tina peters freedom by christmas is there any chance of that or is there anything coming together that you see revolving around president trump's pardon.
John Case
Well first of all we're very grateful for the support of your listeners and viewers and they can find tina's entire story at tinapeters us and they can also contribute there to her personal needs and to her legal fund tinapeters us now with respect to the pardon the state has refused to recognize what we believe is a valid presidential pardon so at some point that will have to be litigated and we haven't made a decision when when that will be raised in the appellate case but it will be raised and we believe the pardon is valid oral argument in tina's case is set for january fourteenth twenty twenty six at two thirty pm in the colorado court of appeals and that will be live streamed if people want to go there to watch it does that answer your question steve.
Steve Bannon
Yeah yes that's we'll follow that last thing how is why is tina when i was in federal prison i mean you've really got to do something pretty bad like drugs or cell phone or getting in fights inmates getting in fights to be put in the shoe the special housing unit the hole right my understanding is that tina peters is regularly put into solitary confinement or the shoe just for any any perceived thing that the guards or the cops or the authorities think can can you get people up to speed because for a seventy year old plus woman to go into the special housing unit the solitary confinement is psychologically and physically incredibly tough can you just get us up to speed on exactly what's happening with her it sounds like she's not only a political prisoner but she's essentially a political prisoner who's being tortured in a prison in the united states of america sir well.
John Case
I would not say that she's being tortured it's very difficult psychologically to be in solitary confinement tina was put there because she told them that she didn't feel safe in the general population because she had raised some issues about what was going on with her and people inside the penitentiary not the inmates but officers who work there so her information was pretty startling i think to the authorities who interviewed her and they told her they were putting in her in solitary confinement for her own protection her.
Steve Bannon
Protection hold it her protection from the officers and authorities of the prison now.
John Case
Her protection from the her protection from other inmates but the information that she has has to do with some of the people who work there and it's it's it's quite startling and i'm not authorized to reveal it publicly john i.
Steve Bannon
Know you got to bounce you're working on this case we're going to have we're going to have various people from the tina peters camp on hopefully daily and going forward to this we got to get a firestorm going how do people find you social media your website about the case and where they go to support tina peters.
John Case
Well i don't i have a website but i don't maintain it or use it so go to tina's website tinapeters dot us or tinapeters dot us thank you i want to get that right tinapeters us okay.
Steve Bannon
And we get all the support there okay and we'll get the social media john you and peter tickton people are praying for you they want to support in any way they can the tina peters situation is a very high i think it's one of the highest priorities of maga this is outrageous in this country to have a woman that's a gold star mother that was doing her job in a in a prison in the conditions that that prison is in and the conditions tina peters in so thank you very much for joining us.
John Case
Here on a saturday you're welcome steve and by the way by the way it's not a medium security prison it's a maximum security prison that's all they have for women in colorado so the tina is incarcerated with people who've committed heinous crimes.
Steve Bannon
Amazing amazing amazing and sick john thank you so much and thank you for all your work for tina thank you steve short break we're going to savannah i think you might be shocked what's happening in that great southern city next in the world.

Special do it today tonight a georgia woman suffering horrifying chemical burns after being attacked in a popular savannah park photos from her hospital bed showing bandages around her entire head we spoke to her son and best friend who've been by her bedside i don't know that i'll.
Host
Ever be able to unhear just the.
Steve Bannon
Terror in her voice police say the.
Reporter
Attack happened around eight wednesday night as ashley wasilewski walked through forsyth park after a church program she felt and could.
Host
See in the shadow from one of the lamps in the park somebody very.
Steve Bannon
Close to her and she turned around.
Rachel Maddow
And went to push him and then.
Host
Just in that split second was like.
Steve Bannon
Why is he pouring water on me.
Reporter
Within seconds wasilewski's clothing started disintegrating she.
Host
Looked down and she could see that her pants burnt or burning off of.
Reporter
Her she was later flown to a burn center in augusta the fbi now working to identify that chemical that left her so badly scarred savannah's mayor posting this photo of what he calls a person of interest asking the public to help identify him forsyth park is an iconic tourist attraction forsyth park even featured in films like nineteen ninety seven's midnight in the garden of good and evil savannah police now stepping up patrols at parks across the city and saying that based on their initial investigation the victim does not know her attacker we have.
Todd Woods
No evidence that this is part of.
Reporter
A larger pattern meanwhile wasilewski's friends and family are focused on her mental and.
Steve Bannon
Physical recovery having someone sneak up behind you at random is going to follow her for a while i mean it's going to be hard to to deal with and there's going to be some traumatic response to it okay todd woods comes in and todd by the way is working on the machines and listen not don't get me wrong i know we can prove beyond any doubt the stealing of the twenty twenty election just with the mail in ballots don't misconstrue that i don't think these machines are completely and totally screwed up and i think as we get more information on this venezuela situation and now for all the people in the in the chat and the warren posse and out there that were called crazy because venezuela i'm not so sure you're going to be called crazy for too much longer but todd i'll get to that in a moment in savannah this acid attack there's something broader going on we could play all kind of clips from local news on other things going on the people correct me if i'm wrong the people in savannah because you run i think the georgia record the one of the big news sites down there the people in savannah are calling for the president or somebody to send in the national guard that this is a combination of what we've seen before the criminal element plus illegal aliens that are basically overwhelming.
Todd Woods
The city sir yes steve and i can break some news right now on your show we have a district attorney in savannah who's putting together drafting a letter for the president of the united states and i'm on the pentagon press course i'm going to deliver it also to secretary hexseth on monday calling for the national guard to be deployed to savannah savannah is a beautiful city i grew up there on an iconic island isle of hope off the coast it was the city lincoln sherman gave lincoln after the civil war the only city wasn't burned it's got a huge irish community the biggest saint patrick's day parade in the country and but it's also a port city steve it's a big port of entry into the united states it's a big tourist destination huge military presence i think this is a coordinated attack where do you get this kind of chemical to give to a guy to throw on a white woman in the park forsyth park is a beautiful area but look we have massive shootings we have tourists being attempted rapes we have huge drug issues home invasions oglethorpe mall massive shooting recently where a woman ran out because of the shooting had a heart attack and died in the parking lot we got gang warfare this is right straight up of what president trump is going after and we really need to pay attention to this because it's a national security issue more than just a tourist issue you said you.
Steve Bannon
Know we just had ben berkram yesterday talking about minneapolis versus new orleans new orleans is what you know got the national they're trying to shut things down support ice etcetera is the prosecutor what you're saying he's sending a letter to the president states requesting the national guard there why are local georgia officials up to the state level why is there not more movement and why is the media not looking at these different attacks that happen and pulling them together is that hey there's something serious going on here and something much much more evil than just random occurrences of violence georgia.
Todd Woods
Is the epicenter of everything steve it was one of the states in twenty twenty that was a huge issue fulton county they still haven't provided the ballots harmony dhillon just sued for the voter registration logs they still haven't provided them raffensperger is preventing this kemp is preventing this kemp is in my view in bed with a lot of the globalist actors he goes to davos often this is a globalist government in savannah and it's purposely allowing this crime to develop out of control it's an incredibly beautiful place and we have to prevent this and i heard a citizen this morning who called me we're becoming new orleans we can't let that happen so there's just massive importance behind protecting this incredibly beautiful city i'm gonna ask you to.
Steve Bannon
Stick around because you got some thoughts i'm about to get into some economics here and i know you're a former bond trader i want to get you back in here but but before i let you bounce for this segment tell me about the woman she had acid thrown in her face how serious her in the hospital bed looks horrific her whole face is bandaged i mean how.
Todd Woods
Bad is this steve is fifty of her body her phone and clothes were melting i'm told i mean this was this is not a you know random chemical the guy got out of walmart i mean this is something i think that was provided to shut down tourism in this city i mean this you can't you can't imagine the the pain this woman's going through and the reaction in the town i mean people i we have the georgia record georgiarecord dot com go there if you're interested in georgia we have people calling us all night long you have to do something you have to get this out so we got the story national it was on the local news but we broke it nationally and it has to be paid attention to because this is you know where this goes it leads to what's happening in new york and in other cities across the country in particular.
Steve Bannon
In chicago we started with rachel maddow mocking mocking people because the national guard has been pulled back todd why don't you hang on a minute i'm gonna get you back in here in a second on some other topics and grace and mo if you can make sure we take this story from the record a georgia record and push it hard this is a national story like todd just said breaking news the prosecutors drafting a letter they sent it to the president united states to request the national guard be sent into savannah because of this out of control nature of things okay i want to pivot for a moment we're going to bring a bunch of people in here kind of weave things together on the economy and capital markets but i want to start with david malpass david you were one of the top most senior executives in the treasury department under president trump your head of the former head of the world bank you've been putting up some stuff that i think people understand is not getting enough coverage in the business media there's a whole apparatus and the federal reserve as scott bessen said a couple of months ago it's completely out of control with powell tell me what's happened here in the last couple days i think only you've brought up of how they're trying to thwart really president trump's nationalist economic plans sir hi steve the.
David Malpass
Federal reserve is growing in every way so they're growing their balance sheet but what they did on thursday was to reappoint eleven of the regional fed presidents these are these big banks that are around the country that run various parts of the federal reserve system there's one in atlanta one in denver excuse me in kansas city and so on in dallas around the country and they said they they gave early extensions five year extensions to the contracts for those presidents that's just one of the things this week they did to grow you saw that they cut the interest rate which is good except it was three months or four months too late that's really expensive to taxpayers because the national debt is so large that that every month that you wait cost money but one other thing they did again on on wednesday was announced they were going to start heavily buying treasury bills so we've got this this circular process where the government spends all the money issues treasury bills and the federal reserve buys the treasury bills so they announced the purchases that i think started yesterday are they.
Caller/Guest
Doing that well first of all we.
Steve Bannon
Go to the presidents are you saying because pals tenure's running out and the president's going to announce either any day or early it's either it looks like he's come down to kevin warsh or hassett his nec adviser head of nec one of those two and i think even president trump said yesterday maybe warsh is a little ahead in the run but was powell obligated to wait for president trump's new pick to get in there before renewing the contracts for these the presidents of the different federal reserve banks or was he obligated to do it at this meeting which was the last meeting of this year normally they.
David Malpass
Do it later the new terms don't start until march first so they moved earlier than expected with the announcement on thursday that locks in the votes on the federal open market committee that's the board where the fed uses that board to set interest rates and they just themselves named eleven of the members that will be on a nineteen member board so they just locked in a majority really for the next five years it will be hard to remove those those presidents and so then what that means is that as president trump's growth program accelerates and brings faster growth the fed has a model that says that growth is bad because they think growth causes inflation we know that's not right growth causes more production it causes more goods and services but in the fed's model they think it causes infl so they'll be fighting trump all year next year with their with what by keeping interest rates higher than they should be they that's what they did this year in twenty twenty five they should have been cutting in june i did a big wall street journal article in june saying they should cut in june but they waited all the way until september so that means you're just you're just compounding the interest on the national debt when you do that and now they've got the majority of the board it's the deep state really controlling things and steve i don't want people to forget the deep state you know extends into the globalism in almost every sphere it's continuing to make things bigger in europe in the international financial institutions that we've talked about here the imf and so on getting big increases in their size this.

Is so this is what liz truss is saying in her new effort in the united kingdom saying hey she was turfed out by the bank of england as a deep state that over in england it's not mi five michigan six or the crown she argues it's the bank of england and the central banks what you just put out there a moment ago is exactly what president trump has been arguing about it's not just that they miscalculate interest rates but we just had a supply side tax cut right to drive growth to make it to give big tax advantages depreciation for plant and equipment now in period zero plus the whole tariff situation was to really drive it was a forcing function to drive to drive people to you know companies and countries to invest here for manufacturing you're saying at the and this is what trump's arguing the fed's fighting you every step of the way do you believe they consciously put these eleven presidents back in for the five year extensions before trump announced his new head of the fed which would be logical hey maybe not late to march or see what let's get kevin warsh or hassett confirmed quickly in january and february do you think they did it to thwart trump and to set up a basic blocking function now at the fed that the president and his federal reserve chief and the secretary treasurer going to have a limited field of what of maneuver i think they're trying to.
David Malpass
Lock in their models and so they wanted to get it done before a new chairman comes in but also before the supreme court decides on the president's executive power you know there's a there's a big important decision coming down from the fed on who the president can appoint and so that that that is that is coloring everything that's going on president trump was really clear on i think december tenth so a couple days ago when he talked about the need for growth and he was complaining about the fed leaning against growth what you described steve was supply side economics remember you have tax cuts you have the trade that's that's changing and you have very importantly the need for the for the fed to be supportive or allow growth that was what helped reagan so much in the early nineteen eighties was the federal reserve was able to cut interest rates even though the growth rate was going up but now we have the fed locked into the idea of inflation targeting it's the opposite of supply side economics what i want is a price rule where the fed would be able to to give assurances on the dollar and that would allow lower interest rates across the board but david i.

I might have a solution here's why now's the time to make a move this time of year credit card and loan companies close out their books they clean up past due accounts they sell or write off the debt to clear their books that means if you have credit card debt and unpaid bills lenders may be more open to negotiating and settling your account before you're in that means right now and i mean right now you may actually have leverage and done with debt knows how to use this to your advantage they monitor lender trends and understand the year end pressure on creditors they use that timing to negotiate hard on your behalf now's the time to get out from under crushing debt and interest payments without bankruptcy or taking on new loans done with debt goes to work for you month one with one clear goal to reduce your total debt and leave you with more money every month get started now because your leverage may disappear at the end of the year chat with a done with debt specialist at donewithdbcom that's donewithdebt dot com done with that dot com.

President trump has put so much energy into a supply side reform of the economy that's supposed to help people and small businesses he's deregulating the economy the fed on thursday reappointed itself by its own authority eleven of the twelve regional presidents of the fed banks across the country and also twelve of the twelve first vice presidents so you've got the top two across the country that are locked in for another five years so they're trump proofing the federal reserve and that means that you're going to end up with rates higher and the dollar not as defended as it should be in the fed's models they don't defend the dollar and that means that the us is at risk at risk to foreign competition and i think the president should forcefully be asking people how are we going to have the massive reforms he spent the time remember on the federal reserve buildings talking about the three billion dollars that are being constructed in washington dc for the buildings but then there hasn't been the follow through to say that changes at the fed need to promote growth.

Just.
Steve Bannon
Give me you're someone he listens to your two or three things if you're talking to him today you say mister president i think in regards to the fed and the structural issues what do you recommend in the world bank and imf because the globalists they're circling the trump movement the guardian's got a great story about the national security strategy about how it came about and there's some expert from the center for strategic institute studies that says they're showing that maga is truly a revolutionary movement when we talk about europe and the collapse of civilization there and our support of these resistance movements from president trump and his administration the the the money side of this and the capital market side is actually much more important than that because kind of politics follows money what is your recommendation to the president.
David Malpass
For him to be aware that under the surface people are working against what he's trying to achieve that's true in europe which talking about you know they're they're continuing their regulations on climate they're making them extraterritorial that means they go after us companies if the us companies try to to to be to have free markets within europe they have climate regulations that are tight and on the federal reserve side that you've got this sweeping initiative by the fed to protect the votes on the on of the on the board so that they can set the interest rates against growth against trump's growth he should be requesting and and asking people why are we doing this why don't we have supply side price rule monetary policy installed in the fed so that we can grow as a nation the fed's been wrong so many times why would you go and reappoint all of the people at the at these at the regional feds the voting members of the board of governors one hundred.

Title: Suing Colorado For The Freedom Of Tina Peters; Send In The National Guard To Savannah
Date: December 13, 2025
Host: Steve Bannon
This episode centers on two main themes: the legal and political battle to free Tina Peters, an embattled election official in Colorado, and growing concerns over public safety and governance in Savannah, Georgia, following a high-profile acid attack. Steve Bannon, alongside legal experts, political commentators, and on-the-ground reporters, explores these stories as manifestations of larger conflicts: the ongoing “war for freedom,” perceived threats to democracy, and alleged systemic failures at both local and federal levels. The episode also includes detailed discussions about central bank maneuvering, the Federal Reserve’s resistance to Trump-aligned economic policies, and the global financial order.
David Malpass (Former World Bank President/Treasury Official):
Discusses how the Federal Reserve recently reappointed 11 regional bank presidents, effectively “Trump-proofing” the institution.
“They just locked in a majority really for the next five years… it’s the deep state really controlling things…” (39:32)
Explains that these moves make it difficult for a new administration aligned with Trump’s nationalist economic vision to shift Fed policy.
Criticizes the Fed's timing on rate cuts, arguing it costs taxpayers and is used to deliberately resist pro-growth policies.
Compares U.S. central bank actions to global trends, referencing growing international “deep state” influence via central banks and financial institutions:
“Globalism, I think, is still run amok. All these institutions are getting bigger, and I’m not sure the president’s aware of that.” – David Malpass (50:43)
Policy Recommendations:
On Civil Courage:
“Be calm when the unthinkable arrives… it lives in my brain every day and it lives in the world as unforgettable guidance for anybody who does have a tyrannical nightmare unfolding where they live.” – Host (00:32)
Legal Offense:
“We have to go on the offensive legally… we should be going on the offense as well because like the things…” – Rachel Maddow (02:50)
Whistle as Resistance:
“You can’t turn off the whistle… we had a caravan of twelve people and we went around to the temp agencies and gave the employers or employees ‘know your right’ cards…” – Community Activist (04:06)
Machine Manipulation Claims:
“The Dominion software used throughout the United States and throughout Colorado is a variation of the Smartmatic software that was used to rig elections in Venezuela.” – John Case (13:05)
Deep State Entrenchment at the Fed:
“They just locked in a majority really for the next five years… it’s the deep state really controlling things.” – David Malpass (39:32)
On Savannah’s State of Emergency:
“We have a district attorney in Savannah who’s… calling for the National Guard to be deployed… it’s a coordinated attack…” – Todd Woods (32:52)
This episode of Bannon’s War Room weaves together frontline stories of legal warfare, grassroots activism, urban security crises, and grand-scale financial maneuvering. Through both personal testimony and policy analysis, the program presents an ongoing battle against perceived authoritarian overreach, elite “deep state” actors, and systemic violence – urging listeners to stay engaged, informed, and mobilized.
