Fox News Alert. The Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, releasing a bombshell report today that shows a conspiracy by his sitting president, Barack Obama, and his intel agencies to sabotage the President elect Donald Trump, brainwash the electorate and undermine the legitimacy of an election.

Ned Price (8:33)

There is irrefutable evidence that detail how President Obama and his national security team directed the creation of an intelligence community assessment that they knew was false. They knew it would promote this contrived narrative that Russia interfered in the 2016 election to help President Trump win, selling it to the American people as though it were true. It wasn't.

Chris Jansing (8:58)

Gabbard got her hands on a house intel report that's been locked away in a CIA vault for almost a decade. Investigators spent over 2,000 hours looking into how the Russia hoax was born, interviewing 20 CIA and FBI officials. And it turns out that the Obama administration doctored the intelligence to make it look like Putin and Trump stole the election. A month after Trump beat Hillary, Barack Obama wasn't satisfied with his intelligence reporting and ordered his CIA director to create a new assessment of how Russia interfered with the election. This was a highly unusual move. John Brennan handpicked five CIA analysts to write the assessment and they were siloed. None of them knew what the other was doing and only one analyst was in charge of drafting this report. There was nothing routine about this and it was a rush job to publish before Trump was sworn in. Nothing was coordinated with the other intelligence agencies either. Basically, this was home cooking for Barack Obama. There were four key elements from the assessment that were repeated over and over again and formed the basis of the Russia hoax and the Russian Robert Mueller Wych hunt. One, that Vladimir Putin wanted Donald Trump to win. Two, Putin took action to help Trump win. Three, the Russians had blackmail on Trump. That was the Steele dossier. And four, that the Russians tried colluding with the Trump campaign. None of any of this was ever true. There was no reliable intelligence to support any of these allegations. Senior CIA officials repeatedly refused to traffic in these allegations, but they were repeatedly overruled by CIA Director Brennan and FBI Director Comey, who insisted that they be pushed. Even without verifiable evidence, the Obama administration cherry picked the intelligence, lied about their sources, misquoted sources, didn't corroborate their claims, and suppressed intelligence that ran counter to their narratives and even used anonymous Internet postings. Rank and file. CIA admitted what they were doing violated their own tradecraft standards. There was a massive pressure campaign that came right from the top. CIA analysts say they received unusual directives from political appointees, the CIA director and Obama himself. This is how the Russia hoax was born.

Ned Price (11:36)

Even the conservative National Review's editorial board.

Steve Bannon (11:39)

Today argues that Gabbard is doing exactly what she rails against writing. We've had enough, more than enough lawfare. And Trump should consider that it can also backfire. Joining me now, Ned Price, former senior State Department and CIA official. Ned, you wrote that what Gabbard is doing with her claims is rhetorical sleight of hand. Explain that.

Jesse Watters (12:02)

Yeah. You know, Chris, on one level, it's not at all surprising that an influential personality in Washington this month is talking about a shadowy cabal of some of the country's most influential and powerful engaging in sordid crimes and then a subsequent cover up to hide their tracks. The problem is, in this case, the person speaking is the Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard. And of course, she's not talking about Jeffrey Epstein, the scandal engulfing her administration. She's talking about the Obama administration in 2016. What I meant by rhetorical sleight of hand is the fact that she is very intentionally, I think, conflating two very different terms. She is correct. And every good conspiracy theory starts with the smallest kernel of truth. And she is correct that the Obama administration in which I served was clear Both before the 2016 election and after that. Russia could not and did not pack the election. And by that, we meant that Russia did not alter the vote tallies, did not mess with voter rolls, did not interfere in the actual voting process itself. But she then uses that, that concl. And that term hacked to say. But then how could they say, how could the intelligence community say in January 2017 that Russia sought to influence the election? And Chris, as you know, as your viewers know, there's a big difference between hacking the election, that is to say, actually changing votes, changing voter rolls, tallies, and influencing, influencing election, using propaganda, using social media bots, using social media ads to try to change the attitudes of the American people. The real scandal, Chris, is that we have a Director of National Intelligence who, despite the efforts of rogue states, of cyber criminals, of terrorists, she is engaging in partisan politics. She is using her bully pulpit to weaponize the intelligence. Precisely what she has railed against in the past.

Ned Price (13:51)

Donald Trump knows that the Russians helped him win in 2016.

Mike Davis (13:56)

Putin hated Secretary Clinton so much that.

Steve Bannon (13:59)

The flip side of that coin was he had a clear preference for the person running against the person he hated so much.

Tulsi Gabbard (14:05)

It was Russia in a very systematic, systematic way and try to interfere in the election and to try to advance the prospects of Donald Trump being elected.

Chris Jansing (14:13)

This was such a malicious disinformation campaign perpetrated on the American people that at one point, 60% of Democrats believed the Russians hacked our voting machines to help Trump win the White House. What this report actually shows is that the Russians just wanted to create chaos and undermine Americans faith in democracy. Solid intelligence suggested that Vladimir Putin didn't care who won. He had no preference, but like most people, expected Hillary to win and had a little docket of compromising dirt on her, dirt that he never released. Now, if Putin wanted Trump to win, why didn't Putin drop the dirt?

Ned Price (14:56)

There were high level DNC emails that detailed evidence of Hillary's, quote, psycho emotional problems, uncontrolled fits of anger, aggression and cheerfulness. And that then Secretary Clinton was allegedly on a daily regimen of heavy tranquilizers. Then CIA Director Brennan and the intelligence community mischaracterized intelligence and relied on dubious substandard sources to create a contrived false narrative that Putin developed a, quote, unquote clear preference for Trump.

Chris Jansing (15:26)

Now, if Clinton was on tranquilizers like the Russians believed, why didn't they leak it to help Trump win?

Major Garrett (15:32)

How credible was the information about Hillary Clinton's health?

Ned Price (15:35)

All I have seen is what the Intelligence Committee have reported through their investigation. I think the underlying point there is, is that we understand from intelligence what Russia said that they had. And the important point here is that if they were trying to influence the election as President Obama and James Clapper and John Brennan, everybody said they were doing in order to support Donald Trump's election, they would have released the most damning of that information.

Chris Jansing (16:07)

Obama and his spy chiefs knew that Putin didn't prefer Trump over Hillary, but they cooked the intelligence to make it look like he did. Obama and his intel spies knew that Putin didn't collude with Trump and that he didn't even direct his people to help Trump win. But they put it out there anyway. In a sense, Barack Obama did exactly what Putin undermined Americans faith in free and fair elections and caused chaos in our country. Barack Obama, the CIA, and the FBI were the ones doing what our enemy wanted.

Ned Price (16:42)

Do you believe that any of this new information implicates former President Obama in criminal behavior? We have referred and will continue to refer all of these documents to the Department of Justice and the FBI to investigate the criminal implications of this for even Obama. Correct. The evidence that we have found and that we have released directly point to President Obama leading the manufacturing of this intelligence assessment. There are multiple pieces of evidence and intelligence that confirmed that fact.

Chris Jansing (17:17)

Even two years later, after the election, Barack Obama was still pushing a hoax he knew wasn't true. And he knew it wasn't true because he helped manufacture it.

Steve Bannon (17:27)

They're undermining our alliances, cozying up to Russia. What happened to the Republican Party?

Chris Jansing (17:33)

They're cozying up to the former head.

Steve Bannon (17:35)

Of the kgb, actively blocking legislation that.

Chris Jansing (17:42)

That would defend our elections from Russian attack.

Steve Bannon (17:44)

What happened now?

Chris Jansing (17:45)

I don't know if it's possible to indict a former president for actions he took while in office. I'm not a lawyer proudly, but Brennan, Comey and others may have severe liability. Trey Gowdy says we know for a fact that Brennan committed perjury when he lied to Congress.

Steve Bannon (18:03)

Director Brennan, do you know who commissioned the Steele dossier?

Tulsi Gabbard (18:09)

I don't.

Karl Rove (18:10)

You know if the Bureau ever relied.

Steve Bannon (18:11)

On the Steele dossier as any. As part of any court filings, applications?

Tulsi Gabbard (18:17)

I have no awareness.

Steve Bannon (18:22)

Did the CIA rely on it? No. Why not?

Tulsi Gabbard (18:26)

Because we. We didn't.

Chris Jansing (18:28)

We.

Tulsi Gabbard (18:28)

It wasn't part of the corpus of intelligence information that we had. It was not in any way used as a basis for the intelligence community assessment. That was done. It was. It was not.

Chris Jansing (18:42)

Well, that's a lie. Whatever happens to these guys is not revenge. It's accountability. And it's time for people to pay the price.

Tulsi Gabbard (18:50)

Well, they keep saying these things, making these allegations that are without foundation at all, and claiming that there was this vast conspiracy, that we were in fact deceiving the American people and engaged in this coup. And so therefore, again, it's very clear in my mind that there's a political motivation for this. And unfortunately, it's an insult to the intelligence profession because there were so many people who worked on this intelligence community assessment that was done to make sure that people understood exactly what the Russians did in 2016 and what they were capable of doing in the future. Which is why President Obama asked us to put this together. He didn't tell us what to write. I didn't write that report, nor did Jim Clapper. We had the experts, those who are steeped in understanding Russia, understanding exactly their capabilities, what they do on the COVID influence front, and other things. And so therefore, again, I feel very confident that if people take a look at this, and I wish Tulsi Gabbard and John Radcliffe would read the assessment. Tulsi Gabbard, you know, she may be impaired on the ethics front, certainly, but she's not impaired on the intellect front. And so I can only presume that she is doing this intentionally, intentionally mischaracterizing, misrepresenting and lying about what she has found.

Steve Bannon (20:06)

I want to give a hat tip to Jesse Waters and his team that was, I think, as crisp as you could possibly do. And I think it's great for the War Room posse. We have to be a force multiplier on this. We're now engaged in information warfare, Mortal Kombat, we have to land. We have to land this right. We have to stick the landing. As I say, we have to stick the landing. And here's why this is. We're engaged now at the highest levels of information warfare against the deep state. And you see right there, I just took a snippet from Chris Jansing, you know, not even the primetime guys, but they are in full assault right now to dismiss this and spin it. They want this to go away. This is why it's incumbent upon the Department of Justice, which announced the strike force last night, and the FBI to move with alacrity, to move with urgency. We can't let this thing just drag on. What you have to do is take these clips, take what we're putting out, take what Jesse Waters, others are putting out, the Jack Posobec, the Charlie Kirks. Now more than ever, you have to be a force multiplier. We have to flood the zone with this content. More and more Americans have to wake up to the fact of what happened, and we're going to have humongous, huge pushback on this, blowback on this. They're not. They're dismissing it, but they've already engaged, right. Obama the other day, and this was stunning to me on the very first day that President Trump came out. And I think they appreciated and respected the fact of what Trump had done, like I said, in the Oval Office with a head of state right there from Asia. So every Asia TV is tuned to this, the Philippines on an important topic, which is stopping the Chinese Communist Party in the South China Sea and on global television, because you had every reporter there and President Trump took every question and then went on that magnificent. And we played it in its entirety. I think it was nine minutes long. Off the top of his head, all the details. He knows this very deeply, not just the way he was there. It's kind of burned in his soul, what happened here. Tulsi Gabbard then the other day came down to the press briefing room, which I think was a stroke of genius. And we need that every couple of days, particularly in August when the House and the Senate leave, even the president may not be there. We need every couple of days to be dropping new information, new and fresh information. But most importantly, we have to, we have to make sure that the law enforcement part of this apparatus, not the intelligence, the intelligence is giving. And there's more to come. My understanding from very senior sources that whistleblowers are coming out of the woodwork like nobody's business. People that have been offended about why this happened for years and years and years, but were afraid for their jobs, afraid for their careers. Okay, if we put the media. I'm gonna come back to this, but I want to take it in a slightly different direction. Mediate had a lead story. One of the lead stories today was about Karl Rove, Wall Street Journal coming. And do we have that clip of the Wall Street Journal? The. I think it told you, the Wall Street Journal. I remember I told you on MSNBC to cut the guy talking about the Wall Street Journal. Did we cut that? Okay, fine. Let me, let me know if you've got it. The. About the Wall Street Journal going after Trump, producing while we're hosting the show, Karl Rove in the Wall Street Journal. And the Wall Street Journal is on a jihad against President Trump. So today the political price of conspiracy shows up in their op ed section by Karl Rove. Do we have the clip of the Wall Street Journal? Can I go ahead and play it? Okay, hang on. Karl Rove is sitting there talking about all the conspiracy theories, all the kooks and the cranks and the fringe. That would be you in the war room talking about the standard of the 2020 election. Talking about COVID I think he's got that in there. 2020 election. J6. J6 got all that. I tell you what, let's play this clip from MSNBC this afternoon on the Wall Street Journal targeting President Trump. And then we're going to come back to Karl Rove's op ed.

Karl Rove (24:28)

You know, the Wall Street Journal has had not one, but two really good blockbuster stories on this matter over the last ten days or so. And what we've seen from some on the right is just this intentional vicious attack to undermine their reporting. Because I just want to understand, based on somebody who has run an office at the Justice Department, I just want to underscore how well connected and well sourced the Wall Street Journal is at the at main justice and throughout the FBI. And I give you a data point. When Attorney General Garland decided that he was going to appoint a special counsel to investigate Donald Trump, the Wall Street Journal scooped that story. On the morning of that announcement and I was running the Office of Public affairs, was I bothered by that? Yeah, I was bothered by it, but that did not give me license. No, we did not sue. And I didn't also lie to the Journal or to the American people like the White House and like the Trump administration is doing now. And that, I think is while we are seeing, you know, how his numbers are going down with this base because they cannot trust what he's saying, Donald Trump continues and his people continue to play his base in the American people for fools because they're not just telling the truth and shooting straight with people. This drip, drip, drip is what's causing them to not really be able to turn the page and try to get on with the business of governing the country.

Steve Bannon (25:58)

Again, I just want to repeat the breaking news for those who may have joined late. We now can confirm that the deputy attorney general of the United States, United States, Todd Blanche, is in Tallahassee, Florida in the U.S. attorney's office and he is speaking with convicted sex trafficker and Jeffrey Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell in a meeting that could go through the day. Yeah, five hours, a meeting. She answered every question according to her lawyer. We're going to take a short break, get back into this. You see the Wall Street Journal and today they give the analysis piece recall. Rove is saying that the problem is the war room posse in the MAGA base that were tinfoil hat on the stolen election of 2020, on the pandemic, on the COVID vaccine, on J6, on the deep state, what's happening with the state, with the Russia hoax, all of it. And they say that this treasonous conspiracy is going to get things off kilter. Murdoch wants it shut down immediately. Short commercial break Back in a moment.

The accusations have been made from the Oval Office. The President of the United States has called out Obama, his predecessor, as guilty of treason. Doesn't come any higher than that. Also, the people running very high officials in the government. And not just the government. This is not the Department of Labor, Health and Human Services or Education, as important as those are. These are the departments and bureaus that are associated with the national security of the United States and state secrets. You see the abuse of it. Tulsi Gabbard's then come out and she said, hey, I've turned these over kind of criminal complaints to the Justice Department. They've got to, they've got to, they've got to act. The Justice Department, the FBI, and this is what we heard last night. John Solomon walked us through what the process would be to pull together a task force that had the best of the best and they would quickly go through this. And of course, last night John Solomon said it might take a week or two to do that. And voila. What happens this took, in fact, last night, they called it from justice. So this is happening right now, but it has to move with alacrity, has to move with speed. DOJ understands that in Epstein, the Deputy Attorney General of the United States, who obviously is now running the deal over there on this case, went to Tallahassee, Florida and we just heard a report, five hour interview, sounded like it wasn't under oath, but a five hour interview with Maxwell where supposedly, according to her attorney, answered all questions in five hours. This, you should know, is the first time that prosecutors actually discussed anything with her because she was indicted and then had defense attorneys and, you know, went to court and lost, is now serving, I think 20 years in a low security prison in Tallahassee, Florida. As of right now, the House is going to, I think, either interview or depose her in Tallahassee. It's not going to be on tv, it won't be in the House because they're all gone. But the staffs are around and I'm sure some of the actual congressmen themselves will be involved in this. To actually go and give a deposition, I think there's even more than an interview, a deposition on. And this is House oversight. I think it's judiciary, I think it's oversight on the 11th of the 11th of August. In fact, if we can play, this is some controversy about all this. If we can play. I think we have Speaker Johnson. Is that, is that clip ready to go? Let me. Okay. Not, not so much. We're going to have, we got speak. We got Speaker John. Okay, let's go ahead and play. Denver, thank you. You guys are in crack shape today. Let's go ahead and play. We have Speaker Johnson with Major Garrett on Major Garrett's, I think his podcast. Let's go ahead and hear it.

Major Garrett (34:47)

And to the point when the Trump Justice Department said there were more than 1,000 victims. For people who knew this case very, very well, did a lot of investigative work on it, that number surprised them.

Steve Bannon (34:56)

High, high number.

Speaker Johnson (34:58)

Yeah.

Major Garrett (34:58)

Meaning that to their minds, investigative reporters and others, there have to be accomplices, uncharged accomplices. And that aspect of justice is still missing.

Speaker Johnson (35:08)

Yes. And it's of great concern to us. I mean, we, we want full transparency. We want everybody who is involved in any way with the Epstein evils, let's call it what it was to be brought to justice as quickly as possible. We want the full weight of the law on their heads.

Major Garrett (35:22)

But when the Justice Department said in that same two page memo there's no reason to pursue further Prosecutions, many said, how can those two things be properly aligned?

Speaker Johnson (35:32)

These are good questions. I don't know. I've never seen the Epstein evidence. It wasn't in my lane. But I have the same concern and question that a lot of people do. And look, I think the President.

Major Garrett (35:42)

This is not a hoax, in other words.

Speaker Johnson (35:44)

Oh, it's not a hoax. Of course not.

Steve Bannon (35:48)

I tell you what, if Denver. Let's play that one again. This is Major Garrett with Speaker Johnson. Speaker Johnson said, hey, this is not my lane. Garrett. Major Garrett, I think is asking a very sharply defined question. If we can play that again, I want the audience to see it and hear it one more time and to.

Major Garrett (36:05)

The point when the Trump Justice Department said there were more than 1,000 victims. For people who knew this case very, very well, did a lot of investigative work on it, that number surprised them.

Steve Bannon (36:14)

High. High number.

Speaker Johnson (36:16)

Yeah.

Major Garrett (36:16)

Meaning that to their minds, investigative reporters and others, there have to be accomplices, uncharged accomplices. And that aspect of justice is still missing.

Speaker Johnson (36:26)

Yes. And it's of great concern to us. I mean, we want full transparency. We want everybody who is involved in any way with the Epstein evils, let's call it what it was, to be brought to justice as quickly as possible. We want the full weight of the law on their heads.

Major Garrett (36:40)

But when the Justice Department said in that same two page memo there's no reason to pursue further prosecutions, many said, how can those two things be. Be properly aligned?

Speaker Johnson (36:50)

These are good questions. I don't know. I've never seen the Epstein evidence. It wasn't in my lane. But I have the same concern and question that a lot of people do. And look, I think the President.

Major Garrett (37:00)

This is not a hoax, in other words.

Speaker Johnson (37:02)

Oh, it's not a hoax. Of course not.

Steve Bannon (37:05)

There you see the, the House, they talk about the house skipped town because they want to deal with this. Johnson looks like he's trying to deal with it. I believe my scheduling is correct on the 11th of August. And I think that's pretty quick to go down and to get your act together and go down and to actually interview somebody. Now that may be overruled by the Justice Department. Whatever happened, this meeting today, her lawyer was there. The deputy attorney general runs what they call runs the building. You know, the attorney general gives advice to the President, oversees everything is ultimately responsible, is ondoes. Obviously a lot of TV to put the messaging out of what they're trying to accomplish. Flies around the country and talks to local groups, particularly local US Attorneys, all of it. But the dag, the deputy Attorney General of the United States runs the building. So all of main justice and then even all the US Attorneys kind of come up through that. It's a massive job. Todd Blanche has the confidence in President Trump. Emil Bove will be confirmed next Tuesday or Wednesday as an appellate court judge. And hugely controversial. We've been following it. It's a complete and total firestorm. His wingman for President Trump for all those years, those years of darkness when we had to chop our way through the jungle. Todd Blanche is now deputy attorney general. His deputy was Emil, who's now gone and been promoted to the judgeship, some people are saying, on the fast track to be a Supreme Court justice if a vacancy does arrive. And he has tremendous. He has the confidence of the president, has been a. Remember, he was actually the acting attorney general in the first month or so of the administration when Homan was doing all those raids. And he was right there with Homan, remember, in Chicago, in Detroit, in Chicago, New York particularly, I think those to. I'm not sure Detroit, but definitely in Chicago and in New York City. So the president's a. Someone the president has tremendous confidence in and you can tell has taken active control of this, has gone down and had an interview, five hours, her attorney says, Washington Post reports, in a quote, five hours, answered all questions to truthfully, to the best of her ability. And then. And then Todd Blanche is on his way back. So right now, technically scheduled is this interview by the house on the 11th. And we'll see what comes of that. If something happens today obviates that or the Justice Department decides to go in a different direction, I'm sure we're going to find out. But you heard there, right there, Mike Johnson 100% said, hey, it's not a hoax. It's time to get to all the information out or all the information the courts will potentially let out. The court already I think said, hey, what you put forward in trying to get the unseal the documents and some of the evidence and also in the grand jury testimony, both in the Epstein situation and the Maxwell was not sharply worded enough. You got to tell us exactly what you want. And the most important thing is the victims. So I think they're back to the drawing board. There may be the Maxwell situation today goes over that back to the Tulsi situation, which is we have to drive this. This is where you can become a force multiplier. Let me, I want to go back to, you know, we have Kaitlan Collins every day when they and this is why it's important to get Tulsi to the briefing room. When you do the briefing room, it's a forcing function. All the big media have to cover it. And you have a number of the biggest reporters in mainstream media who either beat is the White House, or if something's important, they'll go cover it. If Tulsi is going to come down to the briefing room, it will be important because right now they're trying to run interference. We didn't play the beginning of the Chris Jansing segment that we played the Clipstone. She starts the segment by saying, tulsi Gabbard's throwing out all these charges. And they're totally unfounded. Right. They just editorialized. Right? Totally unfounded. So our mission and our purpose here is to get information out, just like in the pandemic, just like in the 2020 big steal, just like the illegitimate regime. We've done this exercise before. In fact, this is your highest and best use, this is where you're the most powerful, is to actually take information and flood the zone and power through and you set the narrative, because this narrative right now is being formed. It's quite obvious the Deep state had a coup. Like Tulsi Gabba said, it's a coup d'. Etat. It's a coup against a president elect. And it continued on after he took the oath of office to destroy him, to either make sure he was forced from office all the way to. In 2019, they went to the impeachment. This is how this show started war of impeachment. Because I realized at that time, this is going to be relentless. They're not going to remove him by impeachment. They will impeach him. They won't remove him. His trial in the Senate, they'll never get to the 2/3 vote. But this is what they're trying to do. And guess what? It was all about Ukraine or around Ukraine. So this is why you're forced multiply Kaitlin Collins every day. We can show you when Tulsi's down there or Caroline Levitt's down there. She's engaged in narrative warfare. Now, her show, and I want to go back, we have two clips here I want you to see again and think about. We have one that's from over a year ago. And this is McCabe of the FBI on, I think on Kaitlan Collins. And then we have just from, I think it's last night, Clapper. These are two of the most senior people in this coup. And this is why I'm Saying for the task force, one of the things this afternoon, I spent some time with this. I believe they have to go right now and take the passports of these people. We cannot leave open the possibility that these people may try to skip the country and say, oh, Bannon, this is your overreaction. Your hair is on fire. No, we have them on tv. This is before Trump was elected president. Trump was reelected in 2024. Saying, I hear what Trump's saying, right? I hear what Trump saying. And I'm nervous enough that people, many of us are talking about with our families leaving the country now that they see this is actually happening. And it's actually happening, folks, some of these people are going to skip, and they could be key people like McCabe. Let's go ahead and play the two, the two clips. What do people inside the FBI think.

Ned Price (43:32)

When they hear a comment like that?

J (43:36)

You know, it's terrifying. It's frightening. I have a lot of conversations with former colleagues, people who are or were in the intelligence and law enforcement community and may have worked in, you know, the Obama administration other places. And, you know, people are really trying to assess, like, what is life going to be like if Donald Trump wins a second term? And on a very personal level, I mean, these are torturous discussions with their family members about whether or not they have to leave the country to avoid being unconstitutionally and illegally detained. I mean, people are actually worried about being thrown in jail or grabbed in some sort of extrajudicial detention. And I think, you know, as crazy as this sounds in the United States of America, I think people should really consider that these are possibilities. Listen to what the man says. He typically does what he says, as crazy as it seems. And that's really all the indicators you need.

Ned Price (44:36)

When the director says that she's referred these filings to the Justice Department for a criminal investigation, tonight, we're told they formed what is called a strike force. Do you have concerns that they will attempt to prosecute you?

Steve Bannon (44:49)

Well, certainly I do. You know, after eight and a half years of this, and I don't know of an intelligence product that was more scrutinized, more investigated than that product was by numerous people, you know, it's very disconcerting. It really is. And I take seriously when President of the United States accuses me of being a participant in a treasonous conspiracy, which is ridiculous.

Ned Price (45:21)

Yeah. What's your reaction to that?

Steve Bannon (45:23)

It's ridiculous. It just. It is untrue.

Ned Price (45:27)

So what will you do if they come after you? What is your plan?

Steve Bannon (45:30)

Well, I'LL lawyer up, I suppose. Already have.

Ned Price (45:35)

You've already hired attorneys in case of in anticipation that this Trump justice tournament.

Steve Bannon (45:39)

Could try to prosecute you. We've had sort of perpetual attorneys since I left the government in 2017. Mike Davis has joined us for a different topic. Mike, I gotta ask you, you got McCabe there saying a year ago he's thinking of leaving the country. And you've got Clapper saying last night he's lawyered up because Tulsi Gabbard come from. How serious these guys be taking this? Because msnbc, cnn, NBC, ABC are saying this is just all something that Tulsi and the war room and other people are making up out of thin air, sir?

Mike Davis (46:10)

Well, if that's the case, then they shouldn't be worried. But I would say you say this. There's pretty clear evidence of a criminal conspiracy to politicize and weaponize intel agencies and law enforcement to go after President Trump. His top aides like you, Steve Bannon and Peter Dubarro, his supporters on January 6, they politicized and weaponized these intel agencies and law enforcement. And that is a clear cut case of conspiracy against rights under 18 USC section 241. So I would say to Brennan and Clapper and Comey and Biden and Hillary and so many others, Andrew Weissman, Barack Obama, you better lawyer up. And I've been saying that for three years on your show since the Mar a Lago raid. Justice is coming. And if McCabe wants to go hide overseas, I, I think that the FBI will gladly go retrieve him through an extradition, extradition treaty.

Steve Bannon (47:11)

Mike, you've done a great job in the last couple of years at Article 3, informing and educating this audience about what the two powers are of the president states. Margo Cleveland over at the Federalist just tweeted DC Circuit denies Institute for Peace request for full court to overturn panel stay. In other words, a Trump win. Can you interpret that for us, sir, about President Trump's Article 2 powers?

Mike Davis (47:34)

Yeah. So the U.S. institute of Peace is another boondoggle in Washington, D.C. i think the budget's around $60 million. And it's supposed to be kind of quasi part of the State Department, this nonprofit, it has a board, it's part of the executive branch. And President Trump ordered that the US Institute of Peace get dismantled to the maximum step the law allows, meaning take it down to the statutory minimum, the floor that Congress, that Congress created for this Institute of Peace. And so they did that. These plaintiffs ran to a D.C. obama judge. I think it was Shotgun. If I'm not, if I remember on this correctly, who issued a stay saying that the president and his team can't do this? The shockingly, a three judge panel on the D.C. circuit stayed that order. And then the full D.C. circuit, which is stacked with Obama and Biden radicals, said that, okay, we're not going to overturn that state. So this is a big sign that these activists, plaintiffs lawyers, judges understand that President Trump, Attorney General Pam Bondi, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, Solicitor General John Sauer, Chief of Staff Chad Meisell, incoming Associate Attorney General Stanley Woodward, they're getting monumental victories in the Supreme Court. And you're seeing the D.C. circuit, the most left wing radical circuit out of all of them, is even starting to back down here.

Steve Bannon (49:15)

Amazing. Thank you. I've got that, I got her tweet up Margo Cleveland's tweet. Everybody push it out. Last thing for the Deputy Attorney General, Todd Blanche, given everything because the whole building reports to him to get on a plane, fly down to Tallahassee and do a five hour interview. Is that a big deal, sir?

Mike Davis (49:32)

It is a big deal and it shows that the Justice Department is not trying to cover up anything. They're, they're putting the most, one of the most senior people in the Justice Department on this case. And you know that they filed a motion with the court for the court to release the grand jury materials. I mean, I just will tell you as a lawyer, I would be surprised if the court can release a lot of these materials. But it's up to the courts to decide. Now you're dealing with victims or minors, but it shows that this, this Maxwell lady, this Jeffrey Epstein's for, for lack of a better word, is saying that she has new evidence. Todd Blanche is going down there to talk to her, to, to hear her new evidence. She's being, he's, they're taking this seriously and they're not trying to cover up anything.

Steve Bannon (50:29)

Mike Davis, where do people go on social media to follow you and where they go for article three project, sir.

Mike Davis (50:35)

Article3project.org article number three project.org you can follow us on social media, donate, but only what you can afford. But take action. Amo Bovey for the Third Circuit just got through his cloture votes today in the United States Senate. He should be confirmed on Tuesday as the new United States Circuit Judge for the Third Circuit. Everyone said that that wasn't, that wasn't possible. And then the war room posse teams up with the Article 3 project and lit up the Senate switchboard. I would say don't go to the a mobility action item now and keep the pressure up so we make sure we get AIM Bovey confirmed on Tuesday.

Steve Bannon (51:18)

And get it next Tuesday before people leave. Mike Davis, thank you. You're a warrior. Appreciate you. Bove's a big, huge win and Judge Deneen's another huge win. We got to get more.
