II. America and the Rising Threat Environment

• Commentary on Rising Global Threats (01:45–04:01, 16:16–20:20, 24:03–28:00):
  • Security analyst emphasizes increased antisemitism and far right threats, though Bannon disputes the latter, focusing on radical Islamic jihadism.

    "This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people... If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved."

  • Discussion of mass illegal immigration, rise of radical Islam, and complaints that President Biden's administration fails to take proper action.

III. The Pattern of Violence: Syria, Acid Attacks, and Australia's Trauma

• US Troops in Syria (11:48–13:13, 22:06–23:13):

  • Bannon and Todd Wood question why US troops, including National Guard from Iowa, are deployed in Syria instead of addressing domestic issues, e.g., crime in Minneapolis or Savannah.

    "This looks like a targeted attack on Christianity... It’s a technique used across the Middle East and Africa when they want to subjugate a population—they start attacking the women with acid."

• Australia Hanukkah Shooting Response (23:38–27:24):

  • Criticism of the Australian Prime Minister’s response, which avoids labeling the attack as radical Islamic jihad.

  • Bannon points out the reported lack of adequate police and armed security at the event despite possible intelligence warnings.

    • Notable Quote (Bannon, 24:03):

      "I don't believe he ever said radical Islamic Jihad... He goes, the far right is the threat in Australia. Is that right? See, these guys are all programmed. Nobody will say what it is."

IV. Pattern Recognition and Claims of Coordination

• Woods repeatedly insists these attacks (Syria, Savannah, Sydney, Brown) could be part of a coordinated global attack pattern meant to disrupt US and Western interests, particularly relative to efforts at Middle East peace.
  • Quote (Todd Wood, 19:43):

    “This is a tactic used... to conquer a population. I think that’s exactly what’s going on here.”

V. Rising Crime & Local Insecurity in Savannah

• Savannah’s Surge in Crime (31:46–33:22):
  • Todd Woods details the dramatic crime increase, blaming leadership linked to “Soros group” politics and expressing alarm over home invasions, gang activity, tourist assaults, and mass shootings.
  • Woods and local prosecutors petition Pentagon and the administration for deployment of the National Guard in Savannah.

VI. Election Integrity & The Tina Peters Case

• Tina Peters: Political Prisoner? (34:16–52:21):

  • John Case gives an update: despite Trump’s pardon, Tina Peters remains in solitary in a Colorado maximum-security prison.

  • Claims Peters’ prosecution is to silence her from exposing election system vulnerabilities (Smartmatic software), allegedly used to rig elections both abroad and (the show claims) in the US.

    • Case:

      "She was performing a federal duty to preserve election records... The people who allowed this to happen want Tina kept in state prison where she can’t testify or speak in public." (35:24)

    • Bannon:

      "We have a political prisoner who’s been right. It’s not like she’s some radical out there... We have the most military hardware and the most troops in jeopardy... on the same issue that Tina Peters fought against and warned us about." (50:32)

  • Intense discussion on why state authorities refuse to release her to federal custody; repeated calls for action from US Marshals, FBI, and presidential intervention.

  • Taj Gill (52:21):

    “I would love to do a prison break for her, but it should be Cash Patel and Dan Bongino leading a bunch of FBI guys... She is in jail, sitting there rotting, and they have four guards around her making sure she stays in prison illegally.”

Episode Flow and Takeaways

Bannon drives home the idea of a world descending into crisis and argues that both domestic and international violence stem from leadership failures to confront root causes, especially radical Islamic extremism and perceived governmental overreach or negligence. The show ties disparate events—mass shootings, individual attacks, and political prosecutions—into a single narrative of Western civilization under siege, pointing to what Bannon calls pattern recognition. The Tina Peters segment highlights his theme of political persecution and demands aggressive federal intervention.

The tone is confrontational, urgent, and at times incendiary, aimed at galvanizing listeners to “step up” and challenge elites and authorities whom Bannon accuses of inaction or complicity.

Transcript

[News Anchor]

It is Monday, December 15, and we have breaking news on a number of stories for you this morning. The search continues this morning for a suspect in the deadly shooting Saturday afternoon at Brown University after a person of interest who was detained yesterday morning in a town not far from the campus in Providence, Rhode island, has been released from custody. In Australia, at least 15 people are dead, including a child and more than 40 others injured after two gunmen opened fire during a Hanukkah celebration on Sydney's famed Bondi beach late yesterday. But first, legendary Hollywood filmmaker Rob Reiner and his wife Michelle were found dead yesterday in their Los Angeles home. The couple's family confirmed the tragic news late last night, saying, quote, we are heartbroken by this sudden loss. An investigation into the deaths is early and ongoing, but Los Angeles police say they are investigating an apparent homicide. Authorities also say they are not seeking anyone as a suspect or a person of interest at this time.

[Security Analyst]

For the change in threat. We live in a more dangerous world in 2025. The threat of anti Semitism, as we have seen, is very real. Threats of other occurrences, such as the rise in the far right, which has also been identified, of course, by Mike Burgess, is also a threat as well.

[Stephen K. Bannon]

Where the person of interest in the Brown University shooting has just been released, turning the case back into a manhunt.

[News Anchor]

And Brian Yanes joins us live there with the very latest. Brian, this happened late last night. They had someone that they thought was a person of interest, but they have to let him go if they don't have enough evidence, right?

[Brian Yanes]

Yeah, that's exactly right. Good morning. A stunning turn of events here at Brown University when authorities last night at about 11:30 at night held that press conference and told the world that they had the wrong guy and are now looking for a person of interest. The gunman responsible for killing two students and wounding nine other students at the engineering and physics building.

[Caller or Guest Commentator]

Bash him.

[Stephen K. Bannon]

Oh.

[Caller or Guest Commentator]

But I saw, I, I look at him. I look what he shot. I look at his rifle. He, he aimed. He did he really, like, take his time. It should take his time. And four policemen. They didn't give fire back. I don't understand why, why President Trump.

[News Anchor]

Is warning a very serious retaliation after an attack in Syria killed two US Service members and one civilian interpreter. The Pentagon says the ambush was carried out by a lone ISIS gunman near Palmyra during counterterrorism operations. Three additional US Troops were wounded and are recovering. The gunman was killed at the scene. Trump said Syria's president was devastated by the attack and emphasized that Syrian forces are fighting alongside US troops. The US military has roughly 2,000 troops in Syria supporting efforts to prevent an ISIS resurgence. The incident remains under investigation.

[Reporter or Correspondent]

People I talk to say it sounds straight out of a horror movie. A woman was walking here at Forsyth park when she says a man snuck up behind her and poured acid on her. Her family and friends are now sharing how she's doing and what comes next.

[Stephen K. Bannon]

I've never heard anyone sound like that. It was horrific.

[Reporter or Correspondent]

Connor Milam got the call. No friend ever wants her friend. Ashley was Lewski had been brutally attacked. Police say a man doused her with an unknown chemical just before 8pm Wednesday. They say she did not know her attacker. The news rattling people across Savannah, especially those who walk this park every day. Witnesses describe a horrifying scene. A neighbor heard screams for help, ran outside and found was Lewski on the ground, clothes partially melted.

[John Case]

Shortly we will be releasing the person.

[Todd Woods]

Of interest who had been detained earlier today.

[Stephen K. Bannon]

And attorney general can speak a little.

[John Case]

Bit about the rationale for that. But we want to inform the community that that individual will shortly be released from Providence police.

[Stephen K. Bannon]

This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people. I got a free shot on 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. Ban. Monday the 15th of December, the year of our Lord 2025. What is this? Hanukkah and Merry Christmas? I mean absolutely a crazed weekend. One of the things I'm concerned about. I don't think the prime minister of Australia said ever crossed his lips that it was radical Islamic jihad that did this, that this, this radical. This interpretation of Islam. And right there you have and I think what they fired for 20 some minutes before taken down. We're going to get into all that also. Somebody's got to help me out here. I'm not sure the administration has come out and said they've said it's been an attack. I haven't heard that these are terrorist attacks, that this is radical Islam and These are terrorist attacks. Also, I got a question. Why do we have 2,000 troops in Syria? And why is the IRA National Guard not in Minneapolis today rounding up those people that are in the face? We played, and we could have played it in here and cut it if we had more time about the. The arrogance of what's happening in Minneapolis with turning, you know, telling ICE officers and law enforcement, you can't arrest. You can't arrest. You can't arrest illegal alien invaders. I got footage. There's footage over a weekend, I think a seminar. Looks like a thousand people there. Very specifically, how to confront. How to confront isis. Now we had a chance. Stephen Miller has sent us some information. There was a false report that Kristi Noemi said they're only going to go after bad hombres and there's no more mass deportations. The administration has said that is not accurate. They're going to continue on mass deportations. But I would strongly recommend. There's got to be some focus here, and particularly the comment there about the Syrian troops are fighting side by side with Americans in the first week of President Trump's first term. The first week we had the travel ban, the first week, Remember that Friday, we came in Friday, and the. On late Thursday night, early Friday morning, we announced the travel ban on, I think seven or eight Muslim countries that didn't have the systems in place to make sure that only people that, quite frankly, needed to be here or wanted to be here and were safe got properly vetted. We just shut it down. There was never a terrorist attack in President Trump's first term. I don't think. I don't think it was a terrorist attack the entire first term. Because President Trump came out. Remember the three things he won on his Number one, seal the border and stop mass illegal immigration. Wasn't even anywhere near what Biden did after the invasion. Number two was confront China and bring back manufacturing jobs to the United States of America and confront the elites in our country, the globalists. Right. Number three was to stop the importation of radical Islam to the United States because under Obama had gotten out of control. You were having attacks all the time. People didn't feel safe, whether that was in Glendale, California or Glendale, Arizona, or in Texas. Radical Islam was out of control. And they thought Obama wasn't tough enough because they never wanted to talk about it. Well, we talked about in the first week of the administration, we put a ban and Mattis came in. And remember, President Trump said from the beginning, this is constitutional. Supreme Court will back me up. Remember the firestorm on that first weekend, absolute firestorm. President Trump said, this is constitutional and they'll back me up. We took off. And President Trump again, again says, I don't want to do this, but if the military commanders, because remember back at that time you had a physical caliphate of ISIS in Syria, in Iraq, that was actually a more functioning nation than Syria or Iraq had oil revenue. They're recruiting thousands of people a month from Europe. Mattis was put in charge. Reason that Mattis was Secretary of Defense. He was going to lead that effort to destroy isis and it did. I think it took six months. Obama said it would be generational. This is the physical caliphate, the physical caliphate. President Trump was as tough and as focused as any leader in the world. Forget that all of them added up or in world history in putting down a threat to the American people. Mattis came in and said, well, the boys in Iraq are fighting shoulder, shoulder. I said, yo, this is not that.

[John Case]

That's.

[Stephen K. Bannon]

They're fighting for their country. What does that got to do with, you know, it's about the systems they have in place. We backed off that. And the shoots were. Iraqi boys are fighting shoulder to shoulder with American boys. I think the comment was, well, why are we fighting over there anyway? We've got a very short term focus on ISIS and then out 2,000 troops. And now the one, the soldiers that were killed from the Iowa National Guard. Why is the Iowa National Guard in Syria? President Palmyra and I might add, when we did the relieve the watch on that 20th of January in that weekend, I made a note at the time, at that time, I think it was the Free Syrian army or whatever, one of these other CIE contract groups. We're on one side with more than 2,000 troops and Hezbollah and the Persians are 1,000 yards away. And I go, gosh, isn't that interesting? It's in Palmyra, I don't know, 2,000 years ago, 2,500 years ago, the Roman legion and the Persians. Palmyra, I don't know, maybe 1,000 miles away. It hadn't changed in 2,500 years, folks. You read what is it? Xenophon's the March up country, the March back Home, the mercenary army of Greeks that basically, I think it was Xerxes paid them and then all of a sudden they abandoned them. Not that you can't depend on a Persians word. Not that you can't depend on an Iranian's word. In the middle of it. Those brothers were Greeks and they cut them loose. They had to fight their way Home. One of the great works in Western literature, the march back home or the march up country. Same place around the same place in January 20th, that weekend around Palmyra where these young men died eight years later. Why is the Iowa National Guard not in Minneapolis kicking down doors and rolling up some Somalians that should be thrown out of this country today? Anybody that blocks a officer in ICE or a police officer fulfilling the role of mass deportations and getting these bums out of the country ought to be immediately rolled up and sent out, too. Roll them up. We're either at war, we're not at. I want, I want my crack staff. I got to hear today. These are radical, these attacks. I don't know if it's coordinated or not. Maybe it's around Hanukkah, maybe it's around Advent. But I'll tell you one thing. They're coming and they're coming hard. They're coming and they're coming hard. And you either sit back and be passive and take it, or you can step up up and say, okay, is this the way it's going to be? This is the way it's going to be. Maybe it'll be something different. Short break. There's a lot of politicians that should be getting coal in their stockings for Christmas. But Birch Gold thinks, as a smart planner, you deserve silver.

[Stephen K. Bannon]

Of the newfound Tasia goes on. Join me. We're going to get to figure out all this. I want Todd Woods L. Todd Woods, CDM Media, which is Umbrella. You have many different news sites that you're the founder of and organized, including, I think it's Armed Forces News is one of the better news sites out there covering all the inside baseball. You're at the Pentagon, but you're at you're today going to deliver a letter from a prosecutor in Savannah, Georgia, and many prominent people that and then you take one to the White House. What does it call for? And it's a private correspondence, so I don't want to get into who actually signed it, although they're prominent people. Todd, this is about Savannah. Of everything that happened, one of the most horrific is this acid attack on a Christian woman that has left her harbor. I think it's 50% of her body has had second and third degree burns and she's been disfigured. Talk to me about the attack, what's happened in trying to find out how this happened and your general thoughts overall from Syria to Australia to everything that we've had happen over this weekend.

[Todd Woods]

Thank you for having me on again, Steve. You know, I'm big on pattern recognition. I believe this. And I was told by someone inside law enforcement in Savannah this very much looks like an attack on this woman for her faith. She was leaving a service. The guy was hiding in the bushes. He had an acid which is, you know, we don't know the chemicals specifically, but it wasn't something you can buy from Walmart. And, and the person that I spoke to said this looks like a targeted attack on Christianity. This method of attack on women with acid or other corrosive chemicals is a technique used across the the Middle East. In Africa, when they want to subjugate a population, they start attacking the women with this type of acid attack. And especially if they can tie it to the Christian faith or if or someone who has converted recently from Islam to Christianity. But this is pattern recognition. So this is what I'm being told. We think they were targeted or she was targeted and. And attacked due to her faith. So regarding the letter we're going to deliver.

[Stephen K. Bannon]

Hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on. Before we get to the letter, this is used all the time in Africa and the Middle east and in Europe now by these migrant populations because they do this to send a signal. They understand. Right. In all cultures of the world, the focus on women's beauty and taking care of themselves. They target women and they target their face.

[Todd Woods]

Yes.

[Stephen K. Bannon]

What is that to tell us here about what's happening in the United States? I mean, this is not just some rando. All of a sudden I see a woman, you know, and coming out of church or walking across the park from coming out of church, I'm going to throw acid in her face. This is a signal because it's a signal in these other nations, too. And I got to tell you, if you look at the pattern recognition of when this starts happening, violence normally starts to really ratchet up because the men folk around there are just not going to let people have acid attacks. This is how this gets very personal very quickly, does it not, sir?

[Todd Woods]

It sure does. And yes, that's the whole reason for this type of attack. And you mentioned the word random. I've talking about pattern recognition. I heard, I don't know, a dozen, you know, legacy news outfits talking about the random nature of that attack. That was not random. I think they're told to say it was random. But, yes, this is a tactic used in Africa, the Middle east and other countries around the world to start to, you know, conquer a population. And I. I think that's exactly what's going on here. We've talked about the importance of Savannah, the port, the tourism, the military all around. By the way, the military families are very vulnerable to this. They're all over Savannah. Fort Stewart, Hunter army airfield. I had someone inside Hunter army airfield tell me, you know, that everybody's very concerned. Forsyth is a beautiful area in downtown Savannah. The other installations are outside of that, but they go down there all the time. So, yes, you can go to armedforces press and check out our reporting on that. But regarding, you know, the global situation, I've been in Beirut many, many times, going back in a few weeks. I think all of this has to be seen in the light of four, you know, significant attacks within 48 hours. And I think it is a coordinated effort. And I think it has to do with stopping the peace deal that Trump's trying to put together between Israel and the Galani Ashura government in Syria. You know, this guy is a terrorist. But now we're saying, well, our terrorist is good, your terrorist is bad, ISIS is bad, but our al Qaeda guy in Syria is good. I mean, the policy is insane. And we've been screaming about this for a long time, and the administration is invested in this now. So I don't know how this is going to play out, but I think a lot of this has to do with disrupting any peace in that area. Someone doesn't want peace.

[Stephen K. Bannon]

What are the 2,000, 2,000 troops? A lot of troops. What are the 2,000 troops doing in. Besides being a target? What are they supposed to be doing? They were on patrol. I mean, most Americans kind of woke up, they said, hang on, we're on patrol back in Syria again. How did this happen? What are they? What's their task and purpose?

[Todd Woods]

Well, yeah, I thought they had removed. Last I heard, they were down to 500. And I'm going to be asking the Pentagon about this. I'm here today. Obviously, it's back to 2000. I think you said it. I think their purpose is to be a target. It's a tripwire, just like we've been screaming, don't put US Forces on the ground in Ukraine. You'll be a tripwire that they want American forces on the ground. Because guess what? You can do all kind of things. You can do false flags. You can create situations where it riles up the American public for retaliation. You know, Trump talked about yesterday, we're going to retaliate. Why are we there in the first place? That's my whole question. Let's take over America, as you mentioned, on our borders, in our cities, and stop worrying about these overseas places. We're taking care of all these other interests except the Americans and the Christians.

[Stephen K. Bannon]

By the way, Iowa National Guard should be in Minneapolis. We got a. We got a massive problem in Minneapolis like today, particularly these people trying to stop ICE agents. What about. I'm have Taj Ghoul in a second. The situation in Australia. Can we play that? The clip? I want to play the Australian prime Minister again, who's known as being very quite weak on everything. Can I go and play it? Are we ready? Okay, let's go and play it.

[Security Analyst]

For the change in threat. We live in a more dangerous world in 2025. The threat of anti Semitism, as we have seen, is very real. Threats of other occurrences, such as the rise in the far right, which has also been Identified, of course, by Mike Burgess is also a threat as well.

[Stephen K. Bannon]

I don't believe I watched it, but I don't believe he ever said radical Islamic Jihad. Radical Islamic terrorist. He goes the far right is the threat in Australia. Is that right? See, these guys are all programmed. Nobody will say what it is. This is radical jihad. You say it's coordinated. I say, I think it's maybe self organized, but it's around the first night of Hanukkah and the Christmas season. They want to make sure you can't enjoy anything. Now, there was a report and Tej, I'll get you in here in a second. There was a report that the Mossad actually notified the Australian government that they were hearing chatter and something was going on. And here's my point. Did the Mossad contact the Israeli ambassador and they talked to the consulate and did they notify the group? You got 2,000, you got thousands, but 2,000, I think Jewish people came out for the Hanukkah celebration. It's well known. It's at a beach. It's a huge deal. Kids are at the beach, they go all day. They had two or three cops there, female cops, it looked like. I didn't know if they were armed or not. At least the reports are. They panicked. I'm just reporting what the news is saying. If you had three or four or five Taj Gills up with a, with a long gun or whatever, the Australians will let you have, but some sort of firearm, you wouldn't have had a problem. And the great Laura Loomer, I talked to her yesterday and Laura came out with, you know, forget the adl, where's the jdl? I think the Jewish people got to realize, hey, you know your government, if the Mossad talks to somebody, they may or may not do it. Look at the prime minister right there. He won't even call it what it is. He won't even call it what it is. He won't even say, hey, it's radical jihad. And these guys are out to kill as many Jewish people as possible and Christians. So people got to step up and going to have to arm themselves. There was a tweet out, I put it up about somebody said, hey, if this had happened in Israel, the guy had been taken down in 30 seconds, not 20 minutes. And they had a bunch of young women, I think, IDF people on their day off, and they're all got high powered weapons with them as they're out in a cafe getting a cappuccino. Todd, I mean, what are your thoughts here? This Thing in Australia is terrible. I believe, correct me if I'm wrong, it's being reported that the shooters were sitting there for 20 minutes. And if anybody's watched the video, I'll get Tasian here a second. It looked like these guys knew their way around firearms, right? This was not original guys going to for target practice. This was people that knew what they were doing. Todd Wood, your thoughts?

[Todd Woods]

My thoughts is the guy was almost happy it happened. I mean, you listen again, pattern recognition. You look at the guy's reaction, it was almost like, okay, we can go after the guns now. More strict gun control. It's the far right. You know it. To me, Steve, it looks coordinated as well. I mean what. Why would you have no police there? We've seen this over and over and over. This, this lack of preparation, this, you know, people bunched into an area with high ground on either side where a shooter can get up there and have a turkey shoot. Essentially. I find this really bizarre. In Australia, of course, all the western nations have been completely infiltrated with, with certain types of nefarious people that are trying to destroy the societies. And, and this is a perfect example of what I'm talking about now.

[Stephen K. Bannon]

He was talking about guns and everything like that. Okay, Todd Hanger for one second, you're over the Pentagon. You deliver a letter today. We're going to talk about the letter.

It's it's been reported that the son Nick Reiner has been taken into custody and opposed their they being held on $4 million bail for slitting the throat of his father and multiple stab wounds to murder his father and mother. Sheila Matthew is going to join us on this Mental health. Look at that right there. Insane. Really incredible. And so see a troubled kid, drugs, homeless, a whole host of them mental health issues. We'll get into the whole situation. In Brown University, the young woman first announced in the Catholic church down in I think Birmingham, I think it was Saturday afternoon mass, was the most prominent vice president of the Republican Club, most prominent conservative on campus and supposedly kind of a real hardliner at Brown. That ain't easy. Brown is the most progressive of the Ivy League. You think Columbia and Harvard and Yale Batch. Brown's a whole different deal. That's the most progressive. So we'll get into all that. The letter Savannah. What what is happening in Savannah that is so bad it requires a prosecutor from there and other prominent individuals to send a letter to Pete Hexseth at the Pentagon via you and over to the administration that they're requesting the National Guard. Hey, maybe not in Syria on patrol in Palmyra, maybe parts any elements of the Georgia National Guard be recalled and sent to Savannah, Georgia, sir.

[Todd Woods]

So there has been a, an increase, a massive increase in crime in various types of crime in Savannah over the last several years. The governor or excuse me, the mayor is not from Savannah. He's from Chicago. He's brought in, you know, part of this Soros group that are brought into many of these cities, the DA Etc, they're not hard on crime. We've had home invasions. I mentioned I'm from an island off the coast of Savannah. Home invasions on this idyllic Huck Finn island that never had that kind of thing before. Organized gang activity. You have tourists being. There were two tourists from Europe who were dragged into the bushes by their hair and attempted rape. Recently you had a mass shooting at Oglethorpe Mall, one of the biggest malls in Georgia, where I said yesterday a woman came out. She wasn't shot, but she had a heart attack and died in the parking lot. You've got just shootings. Every random shootings. I sent you something the other day outside of school, just guys shooting into cars. I mean, this is uncontrolled anarchy, violence, which is meant to really harm Savannah from an economic standpoint. It's a tourist destination. And, you know, if you're worried about getting pulled in the bushes by the hair, you're not going to walk around Savannah at night. These girls were coming from the bars downtown in, in right in the heart of the tourist area. So that is deadly to that kind of economy. And as I said, people are saying we're turning into New Orleans, which they don't want. So it's, it's a string of different crimes over a long period that has got people just up in arms and they need help.

[Stephen K. Bannon]

Todd, where do people go to get all your different. The Georgia record. You got the Armed Forces press. Where do people go to get. You're doing a great job over in the Middle East. You do a great job in Europe and talk about Ukraine. Where do people go? What's. What's the home site they go to to get to all the other sites.

[Todd Woods]

So CDM Press is our main site. Everything flows into that. If you're looking to look into Savannah. GeorgiaRecord.com Armed Forces. Yes, we have 13 sites, seven papers in the U.S. they're really impactful all the way from Manhattan to Georgia to Florida, the Miami Independent. All of that is on the top menus at CDM Press. But yes, we're kind of. We have reporters literally all over the world. So all night long we're curating stories. We can't cover everything, but we cover what we think you need to know about the next day.

[Stephen K. Bannon]

Todd, thank you so much. Look forward to getting a report back after you deliver the letters.

[John Case]

Sir.

[Todd Woods]

I'll get back. Thanks.

[Stephen K. Bannon]

Gonna get Taj up in a second. I want to go to John Case John is at the tip of the tip of the spear in Tina Peters situation. President's pardoned her. We had you on the other day. Any update? And what can people, people I think are more frustrated on this situation than just about everything. And trust me, they're frustrated on a lot of stuff. There's not, not enough action taken in a bunch of different areas. But Tina Peters galls them, the situation galls them because of all the information that's coming out now about the machines. And President Trump said yesterday at the Christmas party, maybe I'll play that clip later if we can pull it. He said there's tons, boatloads of information now about specifically about the machines and mail in ballots that they're collecting. And I think he's got Kurt Olson as a special assistant in the White House. They're collecting that they're prepared to start putting forward. That only makes the situation with Tina Peters, who's a political prisoner, you know, basically held and captured in captivity by the Colorado state government. Any update? John Case.

[John Case]

Yes. Since President Trump issued the pardons, Tina has been kept in a new solitary confinement portion of the prison and she has a detail of four special DOC corrections officers that accompanies her everywhere. So she's grateful because she has a new 4 inch mattress instead of the 2 inch mattress that she had before and she entered her new old cell and she has a microwave. But she has these four corrections officers accompanying her everywhere she goes. She still has her cough and she has not had the necessary pet CT scan that's recommended for people like her with a cough and a history of lung cancer. So Tina wanted me to mention that she's very grateful to your listeners, Steve, for their prayers for her and for their financial support of her. At tinapeters US People can get the latest information and Support Tina @TinaPeters US so Colorado officials are saying that Attorney General Phil Weiser, Colorado Secretary of State Jenna Griswold, they're saying that Trump doesn't have the authority to pardon Tina Peters. So they're going to keep her in the state prison. Now, I was wondering, Steve, aren't Griswold and Weiser the people who claim that Colorado had the authority to remove Trump from the 2024 ballot? And didn't President Trump fight that all the way to the U.S. supreme Court? And didn't the U.S. supreme Court in a unanimous decision rule that Colorado didn't have the authority under the Constitution to remove Trump from the from the ballot? So who should people trust? JENNA GRISWOLD Or Donald Trump. He pardoned her. And he pardoned her because she was performing a federal duty to preserve election records. The Venezuelan whistleblower who examined the election forensic image that Tina preserved found the same 14 vulnerabilities that are present in the Smartmatic software that's used to rig elections in Venezuela and elections around the world. Colorado uses a variation of that smartmatic software that's used to rig election in Venezuela and around the world. And the Venezuelan whistleblowers have testified to this under oath. The people who allowed this to happen want Tina kept in state prison where she can't testify or speak in public. So Tina performed her duty under federal law to preserve election records that were on the Mesa county computers. And this is why Trump was right to pardon her. And while she will prevail when justice is finally done.

[Stephen K. Bannon]

John, hang on one second. It's not like this is a theoretical exercise, folks. This is not. This is not some theory. We're arguing back and forth. Correct me if I'm wrong. There are 14,000 sailors and fleet Marines off the coast of Venezuela. We have a carrier strike group. We have an amphibious ready group. We have troops pouring into Puerto Rico. We have more military assets going, including very sophisticated electronic warfare going over Venezuela right now. The President of the United States, the commander in chief of the armed forces, after using the Venezuelan situation to say, hey, it's an invasion of these terrorist groups, these narco terrorist groups. We've already shot, I think 12 or so boats out of the water, right? He's laid down. It's not going to continue to happen. He's talked to Madera about, hey, look, here's your option. Since you stole the election, this gets back to Tina Peters. The whole reason we're down there is Maduro just stole an election. The whole reason. The woman just went to Norway. They had to sneak her out by speedboat. And, you know, under the COVID of night, she just collected the Nobel Prize for peace. Why she's standing up and goes, hey, the guy stole the election. He stole the election through machines. I'm not a machine guy. We never have been. I'm just saying that. The demonstrable facts in the world. You have a military operation. This is not dea, this is not law enforcement. You have the largest collection of military assets that the United States has put forward since, I don't know, the Gulf War of Vietnam. You pick it. But you got ships, troops, Marines, Air Force, Navy. Everybody's ready to go. And they're still pulling him into the district and he's Told Maduro point blank, you lost the election overwhelmingly. You're not legitimate. They just gave the girl the Nobel Prize. You're going to leave. You're not going to know internal. There's not going to be any eternal exile. You're leaving, you're taking your henchmen with you. And there's going to be a timeline where that doesn't happen. That I guess we're gonna go in and remove him ourselves. That's all the same. A manifestation of a problem that Tina Peters recognized years ago when Joe Biden, who was illegitimate, and now we're talking about the legal thing of the illegitimacy of the auto pen and all that. And Trump just says yesterday at the Christmas party. And as you know, President Trump, when he talked, it's strategic. He's just not dropping it out there like a bon bonus. He's saying, we have overwhelming evidence. I'm collecting. I got Kurt Olson, who's like the Navy SEAL lawyer, who's the machine guy, right? I've got truckloads. Overwhelming evidence that they stole the 2020 election. This is all kind of of a piece. And one of the chess pieces, they've got polis, because polis going to run for president of these United States. And this is what he's going to use. Like Newsom said, I beat Trump in redistricting. You guys all afraid of Trump. You're afraid of maga, you're afraid of Bannon and war room and the war room posse and all these people, they're just a bunch of hot air. I punch them in the face and we got five seats. How you like that? Poll is gonna do the same thing. Poll is gonna sit there and say, hey, they talked this, they talked that. They're, you know, Trump's gonna huff and puff and blow my house down. Hey, I got Tina Peters and now I got four guards around her. So you wanna get Erik Prince and get fancy and you say, hey, you wanna go. Case walks up there with his saying, hey, I got a pardon. Case up there on Friday, knock on the door, yo, hey, I got the pardon signed by the President. Not for us today, thank you very much, sir. So Case has got his pardon. You got Eric, you got Erik Prince, who got all kind of Navy SEALs, Taj Gill, they're all ready to go. They got four corrections officers. We have 14,000 Marines and Navy personnel prepared to go kinetic off of Venezuela on the very topic we got her in. As John Case reminds me, Steve, it's actually a maximum security prison. So you got Plenty of bad hombres, bad own breasts, whatever they are there. And trust me, the women's prisons are tougher than the guys prisons. Okay? Full stop. They got harder and tougher people. We're taking a short break. John's going to be back in a minute. I got Taj. We're already running behind time shield math. We're going to get it all in and I will tell you the difference on that steel slab of the 2 inch versus the 4 inch. I never got the 4 inch but the 2 inch, think about it. You got a gold star mother whose son gave his life in defense of his country. She's sleeping on a lumpy 2 inch. Masters on a slab of steel. A woman who's had cancer and is ill today. That's what they think of you. Ain't about Tita Peters about you. Short break. If you could make one holiday wish, would you wish to be free from your credit card and other debt? Let's see if we can help you with that. If we could give yourself one gift this holiday season, would it be finally to get some relief from your credit card and other debt? 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 DWITH 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 [e-mail] that's donewithdebt.com donewith that.com do it today. War room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Band. I just want to I'm gonna get to Birch Gold and all the sponsors here in a moment. I just want to reiterate. So I got Taj Gill coming on taste ran security for me for years. He's a true warrior and a patriot. Was it 16 tours over there. So John Case. Hey, look bro, they ain't got the four Department of Corrections individuals around Tina Peters because they're care about her safety. They've been throwing her in the general population and stirring the pot behind the scenes to make sure some of those bad hombres are in her face all the time. And folks, these prisons are very dangerous. And she's in a maximum. And when you're in a max, you got some very bad people around you, right? There's some very good people in prison, don't get me wrong. Very, very good people. There are a lot of bad people. And these women prisons are dangerous. You got a seven over a 70 year old woman that's had cancer. They are Griswold and Polis. There is nothing we can on legally. We got to throw the book at these guys. And I don't know why. Doj. I don't know why we're playing Namby Pamby. I just don't get it. I do not get it. It's time to bring the hammer on these people. It's all they respect, it's all they understand. They got four around her, dude, because you have been knocked on the prison thing on Friday, remember you had to jump from the show. We had the special ice and John says, hey, I gotta go, I got an emergency. He goes up there, I got the pardon. Here's the President's pardon. They're afraid that you're gonna show up. You got Taj Gill and Eric Prince and some of these crazy Navy SEALs that are friends of the War room show and love Tina. They're afraid you're gonna show up and say, hey, maybe, maybe we gotta, you know, maybe she's gotta come with us. That's what's happening. They don't have four for her protection. They got four to make sure that she's not taken out of there like she should be. This is unacceptable. And people in Colorado, even the progressives and the liberals, you gotta be ashamed of yourself. You have to be ashamed of yourself. And look what's going on down in Venezuela. Last night you had a massive victory in Chile because a guy stood up and said, hey, we're not going to let Maduro dump a million people of bad hombres and terrorists in narcos. They went overwhelmingly a landslide because the people sat there and go, we need safety and security. And what's happening in Venezuela is out of control because Maduro keeps stealing elections. How does he steal them with the machines? This is, this is now a demonstrable Fact, I'm not a machine guy. You guys know that. This is a demonstrable fact. Tina Peters is in there for this exact reason. So if we got 14,000 young Americans down off the coast of Venezuela, what in the hell are we doing to get the girl out? Case. Because case, you can walk up there every day and knock on that prison door, you're going to get the same happy talk you got from the warden that came out the other day or the. They always send somebody out. You know, it's Tom Wolf's book back MAU Mauing the flat catchers back in the 60s when the government employees the progressives and they come in and just beat them up. The cloud piven strategy just come and beat them up. They're just sending out a flat catcher to pat you on the head and say, hey, thanks, thanks for dropping this by for the president. We'll get back to you. So what are we going to do about it, John?

[John Case]

Well, Steve, as you know, on November 12th, the Federal Bureau of Prisons offered to take Tina into their custody as a state prisoner without charge to the state of Colorado. So with her own personal detail of four guards, it's got to be costing taxpayers in Colorado much more than the $64,000 a year per prisoner that they budget. So why don't, why don't they transfer Tina to federal custody while the pardon issue is litigated? Why? Because Tina's mission is to return Colorado to the voting system that worked here for 125 years. Vote in person with ID in your precinct on election day using paper ballots and hand count the ballots in the precincts. If there's ever a question, the entire process is repeatable. But in Colorado, we use a variation of the Smartmatic voting system that rigged elections in Venezuela and 71 other countries. And the people in power say, well, the computers say the Democrats won, so they won. So we're not going to have audits. We're not going to have. We're just going to do what the computers say. That's not right. We need transparent elections. That's what Tina stands for. That's her mission, is to return to that voting system. And we appreciate the support of your listeners at tinapeters us. Thank you, Steve, for having me on.

[Stephen K. Bannon]

John, you're a patron heroes. All the team, just the. Tina's got a whole team around Tickton, the other lawyer, the federal lawyer, but you got, they got people doing podcasts, people look out for every day, try to make contact with the prison. I just want to give a Shout out to all the volunteers that work for Tina Peters, that have been fighting the good cause for Tina Peters. One of the most famous political. Think about it. For a country that had a revolution and then fought a civil war and then, you know, got all the imperial powers out of here, France, Britain, Spain, all of it out of North America, you know, freed the world in World War II, stared down the Soviet Union in the Cold War to have. And we're sitting there during Reagan's time. We're talking about the political prisoners in the Soviet Union. We have a political prisoner who's been right. It's not like she's some radical out there with some theory of some case that's not right. We have the most military hardware and the most troops in jeopardy that the United States has had since the Gulf War, and I really think since Vietnam. I think it's bigger than the Gulf War. What we got there and what we're prepared to drop in there on the same issue that Tina Peters fought against and warned us about. John Case, you have social media. Sir, I know you're. I know you're old school, but you got anything people can get to you?

[John Case]

No, Steve, just go to tinapeters us. But thank you.

[Stephen K. Bannon]

Thank you, brother. Appreciate you. Okay, we've been. Tage Gill, give me. You're gonna be with me. Give me 60 seconds on your take on the Tina Peters. That's where they got four guards around. They're afraid you and Prince gonna show up with some of your bad hombres and say, hey, we want to take Tina home. And then you're going to have. Then you're going to have a situation.

[Caller or Guest Commentator]

Sir, I would love to do a prison break for her, but it should be Cash Patel and Dan Bongino leading a bunch of FBI guys and their feds since she's been federally pardoned. They should go in there with the US Marshals and FBI and get her out of prison. There's no reason for her to be in prison, Steve. 2020 election was stolen. We know that she tried to preserve evidence instead of destroying evidence. And she is in jail, sitting there rotting, and they have four guards around her making sure she stays in prison illegally.

[Stephen K. Bannon]

Dan's a man of action. Dan, you got the 400,000 ballast down in Fulton county, and you got Tina Peters in Colorado. They're both the same president. Tell. He's got truckload information. Hey, I'm sure he does. I'm sure Olson's done an amazing job, But I got 400,000 ballots in Fulton County. I got Tina Peters in Colorado. Let's deput. Let's get the US Marshals, get some FBI guys go there. Let's see. Let's get those ballots in Georgia and let's get us Tina Peters out of a Colorado prison. Stick around.
