A
Islamic jihadis are plotting against you. Why in the hell you think they're in Houston and the north of Dallas? They are working together to overthrow Western.
- [00:18]
B
Civilization, Sharia compounds which are areas governed by religious rules.
- [00:22]
A
We know who you are, we know what you are, and we know what you're trying to accomplish. And it is not going to happen. In the jewel of the crown of the union of this republic, we purge any attempt to impose Sharia law in Texas. They are not coming. They are already here. You are not here properly and you're going to leave. On 3 March, Sharia law goes on the ballot in the state of Texas. The United States Constitution and Sharia are fundamentally at odds with one another. We're going to tell them, take your Sharia law and shove it.
- [01:00]
B
Islam will never dominate the United States.
- [01:03]
A
And by the grace of God, it will not dominate Texas. As Texas goes, so goes the nation. As the nation goes, so goes the world. Are you prepared to fight for this state? Are you prepared to fight for your country? War Room, Texas. Your host, Stephen K. Bannon starts right now. It's Monday, the 12th of January in the year of our Lord 2026. We start now. War Room, Texas. It will go at least up to March, I don't know, third, fourth or fifth. The primary in Texas is the third. And on the ballot is a proposal to ban Sharia law. We're going to be covering that in detail of experts that know exactly what's going on in Texas, why it's important and what can be done about it. I'm joined by Debbie Georgias, who's a national committee woman for the RNC from the state of Texas. Debbie, you've been one of the ones that have kind of led this movement up to now to really drive this to people's attention. Tell us exactly in your assessment what is going on in Texas.
- [02:10]
B
In Texas we've had over the last year and actually now that we're paying attention to it, it's been much longer than a year, but a noticeable growth in a large number of Islamic communities forming for the first time, seemingly trying to create no go zones and a large number of Islamic schools, Islamic mosques, Islamic centers, all of these mean just a very much enhanced Islamic presence in Texas really just in very recent years. And it came to the attention of many people because one of the areas which became to be known as Epic East Plain Islamic center purchased, I think it was 420 acres, and planned a Muslim only community. But that's just a piece of it. But what the Imam in charge up there, Yasser Qadhi did on YouTube, was telling people, hey, we're going to have, inviting Muslims to come and try to live there because they were going to essentially have a closed off Muslim only community. And because he spoke up so boldly, there was a lot of pushback and a lot of attention to it. So there's that piece of it. There are two members of the Texas legislature who are by background Pakistani Muslims who've been pushing a series of legislative proposals, resolutions and legislative proposals, all of which are incrementally forcing or spreading Sharia Islamic law and say Sharia is just inconsistent with the American Constitution, inconsistent with the structure of government in America. So this is a, there's a legislature, there's a growth of schools, there's a growth of communities and other organizations which we may get into later today, I don't know. But radical organizations that are now headquartering themselves, radical Islamic organizations headquartering themselves in Texas. And it has become an issue of major concern because many people in Texas pay attention to what's happening in London and throughout the UK in France and Austria and Germany and the Netherlands. They pay attention and watch this kind of Islamic sweep into those countries. And they really are, has become a battle to hold on to Western civilization and their structure of laws and government and the Islamic culture and way of life and its structure of Sharia law that just are incompatible. So many Texans are watching that and trying to preempt that from occurring here.
- [04:37]
A
So Debbie, a couple of things have happened that have been extraordinary. It's one of the reasons that you helped us. And it came together with the Patriot Mobile team and others, American Freedom alliance to bring Gert over to have Glenn Beck. This thing was extraordinary. We're going to play parts of that over the next couple of days as we kick off War Room Texas. But a couple of things. Number one, Governor Abbott and Governor Abbott has, I think people in the war room posse understand this hasn't exactly been cutting edge on enforcement either on the border incursions during the Biden years or other aspects. But he did come out. So three things have happened that are huge, monumental and we have to let the nation know they're happening and maybe even some Texans. Abbott came out and declared the Muslim Brotherhood in care terrorist organizations and he did it in this way that was quite detailed. Now, I realize there's a lot of aspects of this that we want to see and other people want to see that actually put some teeth in this. But Abbott did declare before the President, United States and before Ron DeSantis. So Santos followed in Florida. The president put it up as a study to look at Jordan and, you know, different countries around the world, how the Muslim Brotherhood is, has been a terrorist organization. I can tell you from the first term of all the things we accomplished, particularly in that historic first year, the one thing I tell people that, you know, from moving the, the capital or the embassy of the United States to the capital in Jerusalem, historic. One thing we got zero traction on, and I mean zero, was designating the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization inside the federal government. It was just a pure beatdown, wouldn't even be considered. So what President Trump did is historic. But Abbott, number one, has declared in the state of Texas the Muslim Brotherhood and care as terrorist organizations. Number two, Brian Harrison, the great House, the Texas House representative comes from the war in Milan, has been at the forefront of defending Ken Paxton in the and really brought to our attention and helped galvanize the defense of Ken Paxton on the impeachment. And more importantly, he was the voice that came on and said, hey, we got to have a special session on the redistricting to get the five seats minimum. That is going to be central to President Trump holding the House and not getting impeached in November of this, of this year. He says, listen, I'm moving immediately. He announced this on, on, on Friday at our working session that he's putting forward to have open hearings on Sharia law, open hearings and all this invasion, Islamic invasion of Texas, open hearings in Texas. Everybody can see it. And in fact, that the certain members of the Muslim population can also come and make their case. Then he wants a special session called just for the issues of the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization and care. And number three, and the thing that we're most focused on here, at least in the short term, is this March 3rd proposal that's on the, that's on the ballot to ban Sharia law from, from the state of Texas. Can you walk us through all three of those? Are the efforts that we're using the, the war room platform to bring Texans in and make sure they have full information from the experts we have from all that. But most importantly, it's to galvanize the grassroots like they were galvanized both on the PAX and impeachment and the redistricting effort so that their voices can be heard in what we call kind of the fixed bayonets when you have to kind of nudge somebody in the back to get it done. Can you walk us through your thoughts on how we pull the grassroots, you've been a leader of this in the state, but how we pull that together to deliver a punch, at least on the 3rd of March. Ma'. Am.
- [08:20]
B
Yes, Steve, I'm glad you mentioned the effort under President Trump's first term to try to get traction in Washington about the idea of designated the Muslim Brotherhood and the larger concern about how many people come to America from countries where Islam as a radical Sharia based doctrine is in place. And I think the reason that people it was hard to get traction in Washington is what we're saying we're facing in Texas. Americans have a good hearted general sense about freedom of religion. They don't want to pick on somebody else. So they have to. The failure to understand what Sharia represents, what Islam, what history is, is the reason that you can't get people motivated. So turning to Texas, starting with a third point about the March 3 ballot proposition, it's very simple and it's just advisory. It has no it doesn't become a constitutional amendment. It just says Texas should prohibit Sharia law. So the reason that what I'm doing, the basic motivation I have is to spread understanding of what Sharia is because if you just think it's like the Ten Commandments that the Jews and Christians follow or it's kind of like the Sermon on the Mount, but it is not. Sharia is an entire structure of government. It's designed to replace the Constitution and all of our laws. And so when you get that understanding what Sharia is, it is a form trying to inflict Sharia on any other country that is not Muslim and didn't ask for it is a form of jihad. It's a form of attack. So the understand what Sharia is matters greatly and getting people to understand that is very, very important. And so that's among the things the group I've been working with here in Texas, our primary goals is to continue to spread that understanding so that people know what they're voting for. And they have to know deeply why they should care so much why it makes any difference. So going back to your first point, I'm very happy that Governor Abbott did make that declaration. He declared Muslim Brotherhood and care terror organizations and transnational criminal organizations. I know a little bit about how that came about, but I think that the idea of boldly stating that only happened because the governor became concerned about the level of activity of these Islamic conquerors in Texas, this Islamic conquest that's happening in Texas, and he realized that the people would have his back. I think he came to recognize enough serious conservatives, serious Republican voters were understood the issue, so they would back him. He didn't want to go out on a limb and discover that even his own base wasn't going to support him. But I think he's become aware because of the activism in Texas on the issue that he will have the backing. But the hard question with that, and one that is still not entirely figured out, is exactly how to implement it. He did say that our Governor Abbott did say after making that declaration, he ordered dps, the Department of Public Safety, to investigate and potentially bring about prosecutions connected to those to that designation. But it's kind of hard to figure what exactly he does. I think that there are what even DPS does and use specific targets to invest.
- [11:50]
A
I think that's one of the, I think the, one of the purpose of one of the purposes of War Room Texas is to give them some guidance in that because we're going to drill down deeply throughout the state with people like John Gordino and others. Just, just hang on for one second where you're going to be my co host for the first hour. Want to go to Don Huffines. Don, you're running for comptroller of Texas. First off, can you explain what the comptroller of Texas actually is, what it does and why it's important? And then I want to ask you the questions about how does this tie in with this situation with, with Sharia law, sir.
- [12:25]
C
Thank you, Steve. I appreciate being on your show and everything you're doing for the state of Texas. You know, in Texas, we don't need to be looking anywhere for our answers. We don't need to be looking to Washington. We're very independent. We've got a great heritage. And I'm glad you appreciate that. You know, our liberties work or our foundation of our liberty is from the blood of Texas patriots. But let me tell you how important the comptroller's position is. A statewide elected position. And the cowboys that set our state constitution up in the 1870s, they wanted the comptroller to report to the people. I'm elected statewide. I don't report to the governor's office or to the state legislature. Statewide position. I'm the chief financial officer for the entire state. And I remind everybody how big and the scale of Texas. If we were our own country, we'd have the eighth largest GDP in the world. We're spending over $500 million every day, seven days a week. I'm in charge of collecting all the revenue for the state. I'm in charge of setting the budget for the legislature and I'm in charge of managing the money. But the thing I like the most about this position is I'm also in charge of the spending and I have eyes and ears on all of that money that Texas is spending. And I've got a constitutional responsibility to make sure that money is being spent properly, effectively. And my goal is to root out fraud, waste and abuse in over 200 state agencies. And I'm taking the position of any government, any state government or local government that uses Texas Tech taxpayer money, I have a right to audit them. I have a right to find out how it's being spent. I have 3,000 employees. This position does its own law enforcement division has over 80 attorneys in house and we have 600 auditors. I'm turning most of those auditors loose to audit government because I'm also a business guy and I know that a dollar we don't spend is another dollar we've saved and we comply to our overburdens and property tax.
- [14:34]
A
Can this first let me go back to the history because of my speech on Friday night. I said the reason that there's a focus on this from throughout the world with these shri supremacists is because the great state of Texas, what it's meant in American history and what it means for the American people today, I call it and I say this as a Virginian. Texas is the jewel and the crown of the of our union. But go back to the family the cowboys in 1870, the pioneers in 1870. Even at that time when government was very small, they wanted a financial person in that position or a person in that position that reported to the people of Texas did not report to the political elite. They could look down range and understand that this state was going to be huge one day. We right there was already huge in land but it was going to be huge in in in in economic powerhouse. And they wanted somebody there as a guardian for the people, did they not?
- [15:36]
C
Absolutely they did. Of course they really did. I mean they had a lot of foresight for that. And our legislature only meets every other year for 140 days. And they didn't want the legislature running the signing the checkbook and they didn't want the executive branch doing that. And in Texas, unfortunately I always ask this question who runs us? And it's a bureaucratic state, it's an administrative state. And unfortunately most of those folks are all Democrats. Of course we saw what happened in Washington when you we've Been gaslighted forever. And, you know, I always say this. No one likes cleaning out the garage, but I plan on doing that. And everyone likes pulling in when it's done. But our, our heritage is, is quite clear, and it really is. And, and we're, we. We're very independent. We're very unique, and we're very special. And as you mentioned the other night when I was there, I mean, our brand is second to none. It really is. Everyone in the world knows Texas every. There's nowhere you can go in the, on the earth planet that they haven't seen. Like you said, country, you know, western movies and things like that. Hollywood made Texas famous. But let me tell you, the Alamo was real. San Jacinto is real. Those are battles. And then, you know, I like pointing out to people real quick that that wasn't. They weren't necessarily military battles at the Alamo when everyone was slaughtered. We all know what. Bowie and Crockett, we know that this were battles fought by civilians, civilians that took up arms against tyrants and, and, and they were slaughtered. But that's very unique. That's what the main thing that makes these battles. Texas was an independent country. We declared independence and we had our own currency. We had our own president for over a decade before we voted to join the union.
- [17:30]
A
You know, Don, the reason this is so timely is that we've had the day I gave the speech and Glenn Beck was there and Gerd Wilders to give the warning from Europe. Gerdfield is one of the great heroes in the, in the world is that we had this fiasco in Minneapolis. And I worked over the weekend both on getting the Texas show up and running. I also worked as much time. What's happening in Minneapolis. And different things are coming out today, tomorrow, the next day with Don Hoch and others that are coming out with these more detailed explanations of what's happening in Minneapolis. And it's 10 times worse than just the daycare centers. I mean, that's part of your responsibility. Part of your responsibility. And the reason you and I have talked about offline, that you're so enthusiastic.
- [18:16]
D
You're.
- [18:17]
A
You're going to be the, the guardian that goes in and makes sure that if there are those types of situations in Texas, you get to the bottom of it quickly. But as importantly, that it could never happen again. What's happening in Minneapolis, in Texas, sir, that's exactly right.
- [18:32]
C
Look, we've only had three Republican comptrollers in the history of our state. And I venture to say I'm the first. When I win, I'll be the first actual Republican to sit there and let me just, you know, point out something. I'm the MAGA candidate. I've supported the President 16, 20, 24. I bundled money for him, donated money for him. I've been a delegate to every convention, national convention for him, to vote for him. As a matter of fact, two of my sons, I worked in Washington in the 20 campaign, and one of my sons worked in there in the White House today.
- [19:06]
A
We just lost Don. Okay, we're getting back up here in a second. Debbie, your thoughts about the controller and the importance of the controller in the state of Texas is one to make sure there's not a situation like the Somalian situation. But this is one of the issues in the analysis that you did and others did for the. For the session we had the 150 leaders of the grassroots movements that you brought together. It was pretty shocking to me, the meetings I'd had in Texas on Thursday and Friday. The amount of money that looks like the state of Texas and the federal government, but particularly the state of Texas, has given to some of these situations, that kind of fund the backbone of Sharia law. I was stunned at the amount of money. Now, I realize people haven't had the chance to get in there and look, they're just taking it off of public documentation. But I think Texans, when they understand that, their heads will blow up. They'll say, what exactly in the hell are we doing, ma'? Am.
- [20:05]
B
Could not agree more. Yes, the data you're talking about, really from public record is not a speculation, but it's money coming either from the federal government or from the Texas Treasury. But it's all going through the comptroller's office, where Don Huffein, he's running for that office, went through the comptroller and I think it was since 2016 until now, is something in the range of 4b, as in boy billion dollars that's made its way to Islamic organizations in Texas. Now, that doesn't mean that they're all problematic, but I think what happens is money coming state or federal, when an organization has a fairly friendly sounding name. This is not a real name, but just the Happy Children Preschool or something like that. There's not close scrutiny. Well, what is this group and who are they really? Is there actually a school? And my colleague who downloaded and created the spreadsheets we were all looking at and became aware of it, she discovered that some of these institutions that were receiving money, she literally did a drive by and there's nothing there or it's a warehouse district. So I think there has been a flow of money to that degree, similar to Minneapolis, where people were just not aware it was going to things that were not appropriate. And even if institutions exist, if those institutions are actually using the money for the purpose intended by the taxpayers, by the government, and then or some of it being shipped off, as was the case in the Holy Land foundation trial, people in Texas, people were raising, donating money and it was being sent off essentially to support terrorism. So I think the comptroller in Texas is a massively important job for someone who can really has the backbone, the determination, the tenacity to dive in and dissect all of it and figure out where it went. Obviously, as Doge try to call some of it back if you can, but the very least stop the flow and understand if our money's been going to support terror. And I, I, I, I'll stop if you have Don back. But otherwise I'll add another point about the issue of Sharia in Texas. If you are in a no, keep going, keep going. We're try yeah, we have Don back.
- [22:16]
A
Yep, keep going.
- [22:18]
B
If we ever Texas, you are undoubtedly teaching Sharia and Sharia, a fundamental component of Sharia that everyone needs to understand. Sharia is teaching. The core of it is that the world should be ruled by Sharia. The world should be ruled by Islamic caliphate under Sharia as the law. So if children are being taught that in schools, I mean, imagine these are Texas school kids. But when they go to school every day, instead of learning about the beauty of the Declaration of Independence and magnificence of those thinkers and the Constitution and the Federalist Papers, all of that brilliance about the rights of man, you're learning instead in Islamic schools that Sharia should govern the world. And Sharia is barbaric, brutal, unchangeable, sexist, violent. It is. There's nothing about it that you would want to have in America. So the question for the comptroller is can he get direction from the legislature to say we're not going to have any money coming through the Texas comptroller's office heading its way into schools that teach Sharia? Now, I don't think that Don Healthlines or whoever is comptroller can initiate that on his own. He has to have direction from the legislature. But it seems like the legislature ought to be willing to look closely at is any money going to schools that teach Sharia, because it's like sending a kid to school to teach overthrow the American government and institute communism. We wouldn't spend tax dollars on those kind of schools. We would say, no, we don't do that here. Same thing has to happen.
- [24:01]
A
We were able to get, we're able to get Don back up. So hang on a second, Debbie. Don huffines your mandate as comptroller. What is your mandate? Particularly as we found just in a cursory investigation, just off of public documentation coming out of the comptroller's office, it looks like either tens, hundreds of millions of dollars in some case with the federal government, maybe billions of dollars that have gone to support some of these Islamic either centers, schools, etc. And people are very confused. Obviously we're going to do a deeper investigation and get to the bottom of it. But from the comptroller's office, what do you actually, what is actually your mandate?
- [24:39]
C
Well, I can tell you this. I'm not going to let any money be spent anywhere in the state of Texas by any organization or affiliation with, with terrorist organizations. The governor's already declared it declared CARE and Muslim Brotherhood terrorist organizations. I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna make sure, I'm gonna make sure no money goes out. I'm not looking for the legis permission from the legislature contrary to what Debbie said. Debbie's I love Debbie. She' my campaign. She's great. Look, I'm taking the comptroller's position to a place it's never been. I'm going to make sure that we do not give any money to anyone that's promoting Sharia law. That's any group or organization that has any affiliation with these terrorist organizations. And it's not just those, Steve illegals in the state of Texas. We need to deport every single one of them out of the state of Texas. We have right now we're spending about $8 billion educating illegals, for instance, in our school system, our government school system of kids that aren't supposed to be here. We've been doing that since the 1982 Pollard Doe, Pollard Smith case in Smith County, Texas. And that's not that's something that other states don't have to deal with is Texas taxpayers been suffering for decades with this problem. We've got CCP students, Chinese Communist Party students, tens of thousands of them.
- [26:10]

- [32:01]
C
Thank you. God bless you and God bless.
- [32:05]
A
Thank you. Brother Glenn's story. I want to thank you and Jenny and the entire team working with Debbie and others. The Friday I've gotten and I've done these for years, you know, for going on, I don't know, 15 years or so. That was extraordinary. One of the most extraordinary things about it besides the world class nature of it that you and Jenny and the team and Debbie pulled this off and others pulled this off. I think from Christmas Eve to now, I've never seen anything of the holidays take. Take place. I want to thank you and talk to me about Patriot Mobile's commitment to make sure that we set things right down in Texas.
- [32:39]
E
Sir, look, we're 100% committed to this. I mean, you know, when we talked about it long ago, we looked at it and said, hey, there's nothing that's a bigger threat today than this Islamification. Actually, it really boils down to Sharia law and how it's contrary to that of our Constitution.
- [33:03]
A
Where do you go? I want people to find out more about Patriot Mobile, more about everything you guys are doing, both on the political side and the company itself. So just tell me what's. What's the simplest way for people go and find out more about it?
- [33:15]
E
Yeah, the patriotnoble.com and if you're gonna buy a phone, you gotta put forward slash bannon because that's where you get a free Samsung, a 16 or a smartphone. And then on the other side, if you really want to look at what we do, go down to the bottom and look at the different causes that we support. Look, we love America. You know, I was a Christian. I was born, born and raised a Christian. I believe God is at the helm of our business. And, you know, we live by those biblical principles and that drives what we do. We love our country. My dad served in World War II. You know, my business partner, Scott Coburn, his dad served in Vietnam for a number of years. And we just live by these patriot values and, you know, whether it's first Amendment, second amendment, right to life, military and first responders. So we look at that and we say everything we do is geared to those causes. And what we did over the holidays really boiled down to, you know, putting together a group of folks that align with our values. It's customers that we work with, partners. And we just said, hey, are y' all willing to do this? And. And Steven, you remember when we had the conversation, I said, yeah, we'll do this. And I went home to tell Jenny and she was like, dude, we're not going to be able to do this. This is a heavy lift. And I said, we'll figure it out. And she was able to, you know, she had a, A God came to her that night and said, hey, here's what we're going to do. We're going to assemble these groups that we're all aligned, you know, we have different views, you know, whether it's First Amendment, right to life, etc, but we all love our creator and then we love our country and we love our family. So it was a no brainer. And you were there. There wasn't a seat in the house that was empty. Even the control room was full.
- [35:09]
A
No, it was incredible. Incredible. Gert gave almost an hour speech that was so moving about what happened in Europe when they didn't stand up to this, where they are today. Glenn Beck was enormous. Just incredible. So everything you guys pulled off one more time. Where do they go? To find out more about Patriot Mobile. You're going to be with us for this entire journey through three march through the primary. So where are you going to? Where can people get you, sir?
- [35:33]
E
Yeah. Patriotmobile.com Bannon or better yet, you want to talk to a East Texas Redneck called 972 Patriot and talk with him. But Stephen, I gotta say one thing. You, I know you're not gonna tout your own horn, but you brought, you brought in the energy that was just incredible. And then Beck kind of took it a different way. But then remember that comment about a Hugo Boss suit? He says, who made those Nazi uniforms? And that was Hugo Boss. I'm like, I, I went home at night and I threw everything out. That was Hugo Boss. I put it in the garbage. I guarantee I won't be wearing that crap anymore. Sorry for the language.
- [36:15]
A
One of the many reasons I don't wear Hugo Boss. Glenn Story, thank you so much, sir. Appreciate, appreciate you. Glenn Story and Jenny, the team that pulled it together. Thank you, sir. John Guandola, I want to, because you're going to be on many, many times between now March 3rd, I want to do a little introduction. I talked about in the first term, the failure that I remembered even at the time, the one that we couldn't move anything on, was trying to get the Muslim Brotherhood designated as a terrorist organization inside the US Government. It was a full shutdown and I really put a ton of effort into this. I've known you for a long time, sir, in fact, and tell people about your journey. We're going to get specific about Texas a little bit today, but then the days and weeks ahead from you because you know more than anybody your background. In fact, you're one of the guys that inspired me when Gaffney introduced me to you back when I was running Breitbart and doing Breitbart News radio that you came on so many times. What is your background? You are one of the top experts in this country on this topic. And you certainly are, I think, among the one or two best trainers of, in this topic of Sharia law. John Guandola, your story, sir.
- [37:25]
D
Well, thanks for having me again, Steve. I appreciate it. I appreciate especially all you're doing for my home state now, Texas. So I grew up in Maryland, went to the Naval Academy, took a commission as a Marine officer, served as an infantry and reconnaissance officer in the U.S. marine Corps, served in combat, left the Marine Corps and joined the FBI and served in the criminal division for about five years and after 9 11, transitioned over to the counterterrorism division and through a series of investigations, came to see that not only are the most prominent Islamic organizations in the United States hostile, primarily Muslim Brotherhood organizations, but the leaders of these organizations were, and in many cases still are, the exclusive advisors to state, local and federal organizations, the government. And that's why I believe we are in the situation we are today, where our leaders have been leaning on the enemy to tell us how to defeat the enemy. But because of this experience and because I was working with agents and police officers and analysts and others in and out of the federal government, state, local government, who did not know this, I started meeting with them and teaching them, which culminated in the summer of 2006 with I put together the first training on the Islamic movement globally and in the United States and how to deal with it. And after that, got recruited out of the FBI by the Department of Defense by Rich Higgins in the irregular warfare section, and began doing this work at a strategic, much more strategic level and briefing.
- [39:27]
A
First off, tell, tell, tell, tell, tell, tell people. What a historic figure. Rich. Who's Rich Higgins and why is he an historic figure in this entire effort to make sure the safety and security for the United States of America, sir.
- [39:41]
D
So it's, first of all, it's kind of a good story. A colleague of mine, very close friend and very experienced warrior, said, hey, if you're doing what you're doing. And I was still in the FBI at the time. He said, you've got to talk to Rich Higgins. So he gave me Rich's personal number. And I called him on a Friday night, and I introduced myself. I said, this is John Guandolo with the FBI, and tomorrow morning I'm briefing a very small, select group of people with my colleague from the dod, and I'm told, you should be there. And he laughed. And he's like, am I under investigation or something? He actually tells this book, this story in his book, but he shows up, Steve Coghlan and I brief him on the Islamic threat on the Muslim Brotherhood and on beyond the Muslim Brotherhood, the Iranians, the Deobanis, the whole Islamic network in the United States. And riches to your question, Rich had the ability to take that, put that into practice strategically, operationally and tactically, and was able to do things inside the DoD that were very successful. And he, as you know, he became, in the last Trump administration, the Director of Strategic Planning for the National Security Council. He's. He passed away. It's a great loss, not only of a great friend of ours, but of somebody who could be. Could have been a real leader in the nation today. But we. We pick up that mantle and we carry it on.
- [41:22]
A
John, you and you with Rich, you and what you and Major Coughlin found out, because I remember getting these briefings with you guys back in those days. It shocked you, did it not? I mean, it took a guy been forced recon. It's hard to shock a force Recon Marine. You guys were shocked. Major was shocked. You were shocked about what you found out. The reality inside this country and inside the US Government, is that safe to say?
- [41:48]
D
Yeah, there were two shock points for me. One is, as I was doing these investigations and came to see that all of the prominent Islamic organizations in the United States were involved in these cases. The FBI and others, other agencies had open Hamas cases, Al Qaeda cases, and they were directly tied into them, the leadership, both domestically and overseas. And so what was first shocking to me was that piece of it. But then to see, when you see that the guy, Abdurrahman al Amoudi, who was the. The Islamic advisor to President Clinton for eight years, was the largest Al Qaeda fundraiser in the United States, when we saw that guys like Gumrod Kalamov was an ISIS commander and the State Department trained him five times in the United States on weapons and tactics training. When you see guys like Mohammed Majid, who's one of the senior Muslim Brotherhood leaders in the United States and North America, serving inside, you know, the Bush administration, inside the Obama administration, having meetings with the president, you know, offering prayers at Mr. Trump's inaugural prayer session at the National Cathedral, serving under the Biden administration on the, you know, Commission for Religious Liberty, getting FBI Director awards.
- [43:22]
C
When.
- [43:22]
D
You see these things, when you see a guy like Maharbitar, a Hamas leader, being the director of intelligence for the National Security Council under the Biden administration, this is criminal. This is.
- [43:34]
E
And.
- [43:34]
D
But for them, for the Islamic movement, it's a war. So what first shocked me was that all of the prominent Islamic organizations in the United States are hostile and that their leaders are inside the government advising our, our leaders on how to win the war, which is why we lost in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, etc. The second thing that was a huge shocker is when I started getting asked to go into these meetings with senators and generals and admirals and former FBI, CIA directors and having private briefings with them and explaining this is what's actually going on and this is the real threat. It's not just Al Qaeda, it's much, much bigger than that. None of the people I ever briefed had any clue about the strategy of the enemy, what Sharia actually is, and that there is a massive jihadi network in the United States of what I call suit wearing jihadis. Guys that, you know, have ties and coats and they look nice and they talk nice, but they're up on Capitol Hill, meet with members of Congress and senators and national security staffers, and they're Hamas and they're Al Qaeda and they're isis and they have access and in many cases, like guys like Mohamed Alibiari working with DHS and having secret and TS clearances and undermining the national security of the United States, and there's no vetting for this. And this is the problem. These guys are, are operating with impunity and we're literally not only doing nothing by not understanding Sharia, by not understanding the enemy and how they operate, good people in the government that want to do the right thing are inadvertently aiding and abetting them. And that's, I think that's the worst situation of all.
- [45:34]
A
I want to, I want to, because I'm running out of time and I want to make sure you're going to be one of our continual guests here. But just in, in a couple of minutes. You've now moved to Texas for a reason. How serious is this situation in Texas? Even as we speak, sir, Texas is.
- [45:51]
D
The target of the North American Islamic Movement. It's the, the most important target for them. Just so your viewers understand, the Muslim Brotherhood here in the United states refers to Mr. Trump as their guy. And I don't think it's because Mr. Trump wants to support the Muslim Brotherhood. Because of the way Mr. Trump is responding to this threat and the way I think his advisors are telling him he can parse out the good guys from the bad guys, which you cannot. They believe they've, they've got a handle on the Trump administration. And I don't see any evidence. They don't. And it's the same way in Texas. We have the leadership in Texas saying, you know, no, Sharia and the Muslim Brotherhood is, is bad. And they're, we're going to designate them terrorists. But there's no understanding. Like, I hear a lot more people today talking about Sharia. But if you ask them, explain to me what Sharia is, they can't talk for 10 seconds coherently. And if you can't do that, you don't understand how they're doing. Texas is their target. And let me give a few quick examples. The largest terrorism financing trial ever successfully prosecuted in American history, Holy Land foundation in Dallas, Texas, was adjudicated in Texas. The headquarters for Hamas in the United States is Chicago. Number two hub, Dallas, Texas, the worst city in the United States. My organization's assessment, my assessment for the combined Communist jihadi threat. Houston, Texas, the most jihadi attacks in the United States. Texas, the largest Islamic charity in America, the Holy Land foundation, was based in Texas and it was a Hamas organization. These are not coincidences. And they moved one of their most important scholars from their previous target, Tennessee, from Memphis Yasser Qadhi to Plano, Texas. Who's the guy behind Epic and Epic Cities? And this is a serious situation. They're calling Muslims from around the United States to come to Texas for what they believe is the final stand. And I believe this is for Texas, the second Alamo standoff. And Texans have to decide we're standing firm and we're not only not taking any more steps for backwards, we're going to lean into the enemy and vanquish them.
