Key Discussion Points and Insights

1. Opening: Concerns About Sharia Law and “Foreign Influence” in Texas

• The episode opens with alarmist language about Islamic jihadis “plotting” in Texas, particularly in Houston and north Dallas ([00:08-00:39]).

  “They are not coming. They are already here.” (00:33)

• Discussion of Sharia compounds and claims that Sharia law is fundamentally at odds with the U.S. Constitution.

  "On 3 March, Sharia law goes on the ballot in the state of Texas." (00:44)

2. Texas GOP Split & The Local Perspective

Guest: Brenda Platt, Wise County Republican Precinct Chair

• Platt describes recent electoral losses as a wake-up call, blaming Bush-era Republicans and outside money for undermining MAGA candidates ([05:56-07:46]).
• She claims:

  "This money’s coming in from China, believe it or not. China and the Sands Casino and the TLR are bringing all this money in... trying to take Texas to blue. We've got to stop it." (07:46)

• Emphasizes the influence of “deep state” and “establishment” forces, accuses Texas Governor Abbott of weak leadership.
• Cites grassroots activism as the solution, highlighting local leaders and anti-establishment candidates.

On “Cultural Change” in North Texas

• Platt expresses concerns about demographic change:

  “Plano area, McKinney area, Frisco area... it's all foreigners. There’s no Americans in there. It’s crazy.” (09:37)

• She blames H1B visa programs, business interests, and state leadership for shifting demographics, calling for a return to “Christian values.”

How Wise County “Kept Out Mosques”

• Details local collaboration (sheriff, county commissioners, city council) to prevent the establishment of mosques, including receiving anti-Sharia “training” ([14:11-15:24]).
• Bannon and Platt point to Broken Arrow, OK, as a template for local activism shutting down Islamic centers.

On Republican Hypocrisy & Activism

• Platt critiques so-called moderate Republicans:

  "They profess this and they talk about it, but then they do something differently...” (11:50)

• Advocates for more “conservative values in Texas,” youth involvement, and increased activism via groups like TPUSA.

Proposition 10: The “Sharia Law Ban”

• Platt says the biggest issue in the Texas primary is Proposition 10, which she claims would “get rid of Sharia law in Texas.”

  “Number 10 is the most important in my mind. To vote yes, you need to vote yes on all 10 of them. But then the last one, number 10, is to get rid of Sharia law in Texas.” (21:46)

• Asserts that Islamic culture cannot coexist with Texas’ Christian foundation:

  “No, sir, not at all. We're a Christian state. We were founded on Jesus Christ.” (22:14)

Bannon’s Take on the Movement

• Bannon lauds grassroots, activist energy:

  “People in Texas just needed a permission structure to be able to talk about it. And now they're talking about it. They're acting upon it.” (24:09)

3. National Security & Veterans’ Warnings

Taj Gil, Warpath Coffee Founder & Veteran

• Taj connects his military experience in Islamic countries with concerns about demographic and cultural change in Texas ([33:25-34:59]).

• He echoes warnings that Muslims are “multiplying” in the West, and claims:

  “If they want to come here and assimilate, that's one thing. But they can't come here and start their own laws, the Sharia law.” (33:29)

4. A Warning from the UK: Effects of Political Correctness and Sharia

Nassar, Ex-Muslim Activist (Legalise Apostasy)

• Shares his story of converting from Islam to Christianity, and the subsequent persecution in the UK ([38:44-51:10]):

  • Has lived under police protection for nine years after being kneecapped and attacked.
  • Attributes failures to address grooming gangs and violence to political correctness and official reluctance to confront Muslim communities.

• Details neglect by both police and church leaders, expressing that ex-Muslims are neglected and “the freedoms... have been eroded.”

• Offers a stark warning to Texans, drawing parallels between failures in the UK and current trends in Texas:

  “It’s a failed state. Europe has failed. England has failed. They've failed ex Muslims. We are in a very, very tight spot.” (48:36)

Islamic Jihadis are plotting against you.

[War Room Texas Host (Steve Bannon or Guest)]

Why in the hell you think they're.

[Steve Bannon]

In Houston and the north of Dallas? They are working together to overthrow Western.

[Brenda Platt]

Civilization, Sharia compounds which are areas governed by religious rules.

[War Room Texas Host (Steve Bannon or Guest)]

We know who you are, we know what you are and we know what you're trying to accomplish.

[Steve Bannon]

And it is not going to happen.

[War Room Texas Host (Steve Bannon or Guest)]

In the jewel of the crown of the union of this republic, we purge.

[Steve Bannon]

Any attempt to impose Sharia law in Texas. They are not coming. They are already here.

[War Room Texas Host (Steve Bannon or Guest)]

You are not here properly and you're going to leave.

[Steve Bannon]

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.

[War Room Texas Host (Steve Bannon or Guest)]

We're going to tell them, take your Sharia law and shove it.

[Brenda Platt]

Islam will never dominate the United States and by the it will not dominate Texas.

[War Room Texas Host (Steve Bannon or Guest)]

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?

[Steve Bannon]

War Room Texas, your host, Stephen K.

[Guest or Announcer]

Bannon starts right now.

[Steve Bannon]

It's Tuesday, February 10th, the 10th of February in the year of Allure 2026. Thank you for sticking around for War Room Texas. This show is on. We're going to go from Wise County, Texas, just north of Dallas, Fort Worth Metroplex, to England later in the show. We had an amazing conversation yesterday with an individual that converted from Islam to Christianity and he told you about the horrors of that, what's happened to his life since he became a follower of Christ. He runs an organization now to talk about folks that have converted to Christianity from Islam. Also going to talk to the county chairman in Wise County. First off, from the last year, from our five o', clock, I couldn't get Trevor Comstock in. Trevor, Sacred Human Health, you got a special, particularly Valentine's Day coming up. I want to make sure we get you in the audience. People are bugging me all the time. They want you up more and they want more of your specials. You got a big one right now. What is it and where do people go?

[Nassar (Ex-Muslim Activist)]

Yeah.

[Trevor Comstock]

Great to see you, Steve. So like you mentioned, we're still running our Valentine's Day sale. It's going to end tomorrow, but you can use Code Love at checkout for 20 off any one time order and then also with that too, our new Sacred Healing salve has been extremely popular. The feedback that we've been getting through email and the reviews has been awesome. We even actually had a couple doctors and orthodontists recently reach out letting us know that they've been using it for pain relief on their patients and it's been working wonders. So I'm super happy about the launch of that. And for anyone that doesn't know, if you do have things like inflammation, bruising, swelling, muscle soreness or anything like that, you just take a little bit, you rub, rub on to any area of your body that needs relief, and that helps ease that pain quite a bit. And it works great on things like insect bites, scrapes, burns, things like that as well. So check out that product. You can see the reviews starting to come in as well. And of course, if you have any questions on any of our products or anything in general, you can always let us know.

[Steve Bannon]

One thing people keep asking me, because you make these in small batches, everything's kind of handcrafted. We continue to, you know, oftentimes run out because of the popularity of these products. What do people have to do to get ahead of that?

[Trevor Comstock]

Yeah, I mean, right now we're doing our best to stock up as much as we can. Obviously, as you mentioned, each jar is handmade. That goes for our tallow moisturizer as well as the sacred healing salve. We're trying not to run out. But I think right now, as long as you stock up a little bit or just purchase one at a time every month or so, you'll be all right. But yeah, we're making sure we can do our best to make sure it doesn't run out of stock again.

[Steve Bannon]

One more time. Where do people go? I want them to read the reviews. This is just like warpath coffee. The reviews sell it. Don't take it from Trevor, don't take it from Steve. Take it from your compadres that order this and use it. Where do people go to do that and where they go to get access to you?

[Trevor Comstock]

Yeah, 100%. So you go to sacredhumanhealth.com as I mentioned, just use code love at checkout for 20% off any one time order. If you subscribe, you're locked in the 10%. And then just hit the contact us button if you have any questions. We'll help out and get back to you as soon as we can.

[Steve Bannon]

Thank you, sir. I appreciate you and thanks for sticking around. Sorry I couldn't get you in the five, but the war room Texas team wanted to see you, so. Thank you, sir. Brenda Platt. You're so Brenda. I want to take a second and describe wise count. Here's why. Senate District 9 over in Tarrant county. That story about that election. And obviously the Democrats did a good job and the Republicans lost. But it was the number one political story on the Guardian out of the uk, out of the Times of London. And here's the reason. People are very focused, not just in Texas, not just in this country, throughout the world, what's going on in Texas, they understand that Texas is the beating heart of the Trump revolution. It is. And particularly north Texas is Trump country. So walk us through. You're the county chair on the Republican side. Walk us through the county. The demographics and particularly the feeling. Why is this the beating heart? Why is these small towns and counties north of Dallas, I guess, not so small anymore? Why are they considered the beating heart of the Trump revolution?

[Brenda Platt]

Thank you. Thank you for having me on your show. I am a precinct chair, just so you know, not a county chair. I just want to make that clear. I have a great county chair, but as a county chair, you can't actually endorse people. So that's why I wanted to stay a precinct chair. What happened in Tarrant county was horrific. And I guess a big eye opener for us. And Denton county and Wise county, we surround right next to Tarrant County. A couple of things I think that happened is we had someone kind of split the vote that came in, John Huffman, who is a Bush Perry supporter and supported by. And so I think that really hurt that race as well, because he took a lot of the votes away from her. So I think also too, the weather, we had ice storms, we had bad snow. We couldn't get on the roads. And it was right when the election happened. And a lot of people don't get out and vote for primaries. And this was a special election. So for sure, special elections don't get the voter.

[Steve Bannon]

Why we're seeing this all over. Why is there still this? The Bush junta, the Bush apparatus has not supported the Trump movement down here. You can see it's war everywhere. Where you got it in the Senate race. The Senate race is gonna be. This primary may be the most expensive primary in the history of the country on the Republican side. And Ken Paxton's kind of a. A legendary figure here among the grassroots. But you have. Cornyn has been there forever. He's already raised, I think, 50 to 75 million dollars. I've been down here now, I think, for two or three weeks. If you watch sports or if you're watching anything on local television, you watch the Dallas News at night. There are corn and ads nonstop. What is this split? Explain to people throughout the country what's this split between the kind of Bush folks and Trump and the MAGA people.

[Brenda Platt]

What I can explain is what I see here with Andy Hopper's campaign. He has someone that's running against him and a lot of the grassroots have people running against them right now. And this money's coming in from China, believe it or not. China and the Sands Casino and the TLR are bringing all this money in to bring to get the grassroots out and try to take Texas to blue. And we've got to stop it. We've got to throw these mailers in the trash. We've got to realize that we have 22, two great grassroots conservatives running as House reps. And we need more for things to change. We also need a new governor. Our governor is not standing up for Texas. We need to clean house and get these Democrat rhinos out of our house. The rhinos, the Democrats won as our speaker vote. So we have a speaker that's voted in by Democrats, basically, and quite a few of our Republicans in office. So I think that as Texas goes, there goes the nation. And I'm a fighter for Texas. I'm a fifth generation Texan and I can't stand what I'm seeing, what's happening. So like Andy Hoppers and the Shelley Luthers and the Mike Alcotts and the Mitch Littles, they're taking Texas by storm and we've got to stand behind them. And I really feel like Dog Pete Chambers is also trying to help Texas as well. So there's some changes on the horizon and we just need to work hard. And the grassroots are out there knocking doors and, and my Facebook page, lots of Facebook pages are like screaming. Hubris is a great video to watch. Hu B R I s. It explains what's happening in Texas.

[Steve Bannon]

What is. Talk to me about being a fifth generation Texas Texan. And what you see here, you know, we've got Sharia law on the ballot. You also have this issue with H1B visas. How radically is Texas changing?

[Brenda Platt]

Very radically. And actually we're number three in the nation right now for Sharia law. It's ridiculous. The last 10 years that Abbott's been in office, he has not stopped it. It's. He says he's stopping it now. Well, it's a little late. We need to get back the H1B visas. We go into Costco and McKinney and there's. It's all, it's all foreigners. There's no Americans in there. It's crazy. They're taking over the plano area. The McKinney area, the Frisco area. And it's really, really disheartening for me as a fifth generation Texan. I have a real heart for Texas and I want to see it get back to where it's all about.

[Steve Bannon]

But how to explain to people, but explain to people, how do we, how did we get here? This is one of the reasons we've shifted the show down here through the primary. I came down, I started spending time and I was shocked to talk to. Texans have been here forever that love their country. And they're telling me these, these, particularly in north, north of Dallas, Fort Worth Metroplex, that these, these towns in, in west of it, south of it are being taken over by foreigners. How did we, is this the business community in Texas doing this? I mean, how did this happen?

[Brenda Platt]

Well, you know, as Texas goes, there goes the nation and you've talked a lot about that. So they're trying to take Texas down because we are leaders and we've always been the leading state. Our governor is not leading. We have had DeSantis leading Florida, much better than Texas. So we've got to start changing some things because we've got the establishment and the deep state and the Satan. Actually, if you look at it, it's a spiritual warfare. We have to get Jesus Christ back in Texas and leading. And Texans needs to stand up and make a difference. And we have different organizations in Texas that say they're Republicans. I've gone to the state convention and I see it for myself that they're there voting for stuff that we should be voting for. So we've got to get the activists out there and make a stand and take a stand. Just like I went to J6. I was there for Trump and I've stood for him since 2015. I'm standing for our Texas. Just like we need to go, Texas needs to lead. And so here we are.

[Steve Bannon]

Talk to me about that when you go around and see, because these other Republicans are at least they publicly profess to be Christians. They all talk about their love of Texas. What are you seeing at the reality? You say they profess this and they talk about it, but then they do something differently and it's manifested when you go to a Costco or you go shopping. And I hear this all the time on weekends. There's very few Texans and quite simply, you're overwhelmed by foreigners either either Muslims that have come in here, right, that are instilling Sharia law. You've got mosque building, I think two mosque a month in the north Texas area. Plus you have the H1B visas that are just overwhelming cities. So what do they say on one hand? What are they actually doing that you're saying the grassroots has to unwind?

[Brenda Platt]

Well, I'm very close with my sheriff here in Wise county, and he's a conservative, he's a constitutional sheriff. And I think that we need to get all the sheriffs involved, and I know quite a few of them are. And we need to stop it. Our Wise county has an. We're stopping it in Wise County. We have no mosques here. And I think that if people just. Their eyes would be opened. And as Christians, I mean, really, we don't believe in abortions. We don't believe in killing babies. But there are the Republicans that are moderates. And I'm like, really? We need to get to be the more conservative. And then if we have to go more towards the middle, then we can. But we've got to stand up for the more conservative values in Texas. And just like raising children, you got to set the bar high. And then therefore the children will rise up to that. And we've got to teach our children. We've got to get them involved. This TPUSA has been beautiful to help these young people to get involved. And I'm seeing a lot of even new precinct chairs coming in that are younger, that we're training up the new generations, that we can't just sit back. We need to be activists.

[Steve Bannon]

Talk to me about why is Wise county have.

[Guest or Announcer]

Have.

[Steve Bannon]

Have no mosque. What does that mean? Because we're hearing stories all the time. We're going to start getting people on here. The pressure, first off, they're doing under LLCs. They're doing it very sneakily. But there is pressure from the business community for landholders, ranchers and farmers to sell to the Muslims. And they're doing it at premium prices. What did you guys do in Wise county that's made sure that you're one of the few counties up here that doesn't have a mosque?

[Brenda Platt]

Well, we've had people come in and training us, train us about it, to teach us about Sharia law, teach us the horrific things that they do in those mosques and opened up eyes here. And so now we're in. The sheriff and Andy Hopper as well have been with the county commissioners and working behind the scenes in the city councils to keep them out of city councils, to keep them out of school boards. They're coming in to try to take over and we have to stop it. And people need to have their eyes open to stop it in their own cities. It happened in Oklahoma just recently where they and Broken Bow, where they stood up and the city came together and said, no, we're not having it here. And the city council listened to them. So that was a great source for us as Texans that we need to look and see what Oklahoma is doing. It's pretty sad that we're not leading. We don't have a governor leading us. That's why I have this button on that we need to fire Abbott. We've got to get a new governor and also state reps that are supporting us. And I know Tan Parker. He's all behind getting sharia law out. I love him as a senator and he's. There's a lot of things behind the scenes that you and I won't know because it's spiritual warfare. It's warfare and we can't let the enemy know what we're doing.

[Steve Bannon]

By the way, Broken Arrow, Oklahoma has been. I've said we've profiled that two or three times. They've set a fantastic example. I think 1300 people showed up at the county commissioner when they're going to build this huge Islamic Center. And 450 people. We know there's so many people that just feel uncomfortable speaking at a public hearing. 450 volunteered to get up. They had to cut it off after 100 because I think it was 99 to 1 of people against it. And they shut the thing down. And I think Broken Arrow has become an example throughout the country of what you have to do to be engaged. Talk to me. Why the governor. He designated the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organization. He designated CAIR a terrorist organization. He had a law that supposedly shut down Epic City, although it doesn't really shut down Epic City. And he said he's got a law up there that bans Sharia law. Now, if he's done all that right. And quite frankly, even President Trump on a Muslim Brotherhood. President Trump has done the Muslim Brotherhood in Jordan and in Syria and in Egypt, but he hasn't done it in Qatar and he hasn't done it in Turkey and hasn't done it overall. What is Abbott will sit there and go, hey, Brenda, what more do you want me to do? I've designated the Muslim Brotherhood terrorist organization. Care terrorist organization. I stopped Epic City or had the legislature do that, although there may be some outs on that. And supposedly keeps saying he stopped sharia law already. So what are your complaints with that?

[Brenda Platt]

He didn't say Sharia law. If you look at the resolution that he did. It didn't even mention Sharia law. That's the, that's the precipice that we have to go to. It's Sharia law. It's nothing to do against the religion. It's nothing to do against. Because they say freedom of religion. Well, it's not about the religion, it's about Sharia law and what they're doing. And these women, I don't understand why women aren't standing up against this because they're hurting and killing women. Making, marrying 8 year olds and beheading people, I mean it's just nuts. So I think that it's just a matter of getting the word out and telling the people. And I know Doc Chambers, he's a warrior. He has, he has a heart to come in and make a difference and not just say it, but do it. And he's already proven himself and he saved 3,000 on the border to not get the vaccine. He helped them and stood up and he lost his job from doing that. And he just saved a 17 year old girl, 15 year old girl a couple days ago that was missing. And he stopped his campaign trail to go find her and help her get her safe. And he also pulled all the bodies out of the river on July 4 and delayed his campaign. So he does a lot of things for the people and he's for the people. And so I love that about him. And we need change in Texas.

[Steve Bannon]

When he's talking about Abbott versus Doc Chambers specifically, what policies? Doc Chambers is obviously a charismatic warrior, I think Green Beret physician like you said, when they had the horrible flooding that took the camps away. We interviewed Doc Chambers a couple times right down there. I mean he's engaged. You said he took a couple of days off his campaign here. The last few days we had campaign stops all over, I think to search for a missing 15 year old girl. And I believe they found her. He's been at the border. In fact, he's the first one I think to expose. Abbott's policies in the border were just all performative. But what is it specifically? He's a man of action, obviously. What is it specifically, do you see him doing as governor that would lead to, you know, President Trump has endorsed Abbott. That would lead to the, not just the defeat of Abbott, but change of policies here in Texas.

[Brenda Platt]

Well, the endorsement of Trump is interesting because there's two things in Texas that Trump wanted and that was school choice and the redistricting maps. And so Abbott was for that. And a lot of the House reps voted for that and so they got endorsed by Trump. Well, to me, yeah, as Trump endorses people, they tend to win. I believe that. But I really feel like there was a picture of Doc Pete with Laura Trump the other day and man, it's gone viral because Doc is all about, he's not a politician. He's like Trump. He, he doesn't want to be bought out and paid for. The war chest for Abbott is ridiculous. He's bought and paid for. He has to answer to so many people that he's taken money from where Doc is not taking money from those people. Sure. He doesn't have a million dollar war chest. It because he doesn't want to take money and have to be tied to that. So I think that that's a wonderful thing and that his endorsements from Allen west and from, from Gosh, he's got a lot of lieutenants and colonels that are, that are endorsing him. But I think that he stands for Texas. He's a warrior, he's a, he's a true cowboy on a horse with a rifle wanting to save Texas. He has a sheet out that he sent that has tells all about him as a QR code and all of his policies are on the back. And I've been sending that out. A lot of people have been sending it out. But he's really about medical freedom, election integrity, right to life. He believes a baby is a baby at conception. He wants to secure the border, which he's already proven he can do and has worked at abolish property taxes. He has a plan for that as well. But the Sharia law is his biggest thing. He's really been working on. And I tell you what, he's even said that he can take people into these, into these mosques and find out what's going on inside them because what's going on inside these mosques is scary. You've got, you've got weaponry, we've got marrying of 8 year olds. You've got things that you don't see outside those mosques and him going and taking troops inside. He wants to build the Texas Guard. He's asked for all the people in the, all veterans to come in and join the Texas Guard. And as soon as they get in and build that Texas Guard up, there will be no taxes that those Texas Guards have to pay anymore. It's pretty cool. His first executive order in office, what.

[Steve Bannon]

Is since we've had this conference and now doing War Room Texas, I think it gave people permission structure. Everybody I talk to, I go to these conferences. I go to these meetings every day. They're all talking about Sharia law. They're all talking about being on the ballot. How big a deal has this become in Texas in this primary?

[Brenda Platt]

Oh, it's a huge deal. We have 10 propositions on our ballot. And number 10 is the most important in my mind. To vote yes, you need to vote yes on all 10 of them. But then the last one, number 10, is to get rid of Sharia law in Texas. And it would just show all Texas that that's the number one thing we want. We need to vote yes on number 10.

[Steve Bannon]

Is this culture? Is the Islamic culture? Can it be assimilated into Texas culture? Ma', am?

[Brenda Platt]

No, sir, not at all. We're a Christian state. We were founded on Jesus Christ. And a lot of people will say, oh, we can't. That's mixing politics with religion. No, that's how we were started. And we will stay a Christian state. And this is eye opening for people. And I guess a lot of people didn't even know this was happening, but now they do. We have a mayor in Richardson, Texas, where I'm from, that is Muslim, that has all the Muslim craziness that's going on, and that's in Richardson, Texas. And this is ridiculous. We've got to stop it.

[Steve Bannon]

Talk to me about being a fifth generation Texan. We're about to wrap up here. What does it mean to be a fifth generation Texan? What do you owe the folks that came before you?

[Brenda Platt]

Well, I owe the Alamo. We fought for our freedom and we need to keep fighting for our freedom. And I think we've been sold out and I'm tired of it. The establishment has sold us out. And we need to get back to our grassroots and to our roots and stand up for Texas and fight. And we are a second Amendment state and we always will be, and we will protect ourselves. So anybody coming to our doors trying to hurt us, you better watch out.

[Steve Bannon]

Do you, do you anticipate that people are awakening to this? Do you think that average working class people, middle class, are awakening to this message now in Texas?

[Brenda Platt]

Yeah, because of you. Thank you. We appreciate you fighting for Texas, Steve Bannon, What a great thing. And I follow you and I know that a lot of people follow you. And I think that the news, getting out there and telling people, because not everybody's on social media, but it's all over social media. It's all over the news. But I think that we're the people who are watching the TV news, abc NBC, cbs, Fox, they're not seeing it, but the people like you standing up and hopefully they're getting out and getting on Rumble and getting on different channels on that they can find it for.

[Steve Bannon]

So yes, that's we saw with Charlie Kirk. No, this show. We've launched a bunch of war rooms in the last six years. I've never had one that launched this hot. People in Texas just needed a permission structure to be able to talk about it. And now they're talking about it. They're acting upon it. So on the 3rd of March in this primary, on the primary ballot are 10 propositions. Proposition 10 is to prohibit Sharia law in the state of Texas. And that will get the ball rolling. Of course. People are calling for hearings right now. People are calling for to put some meat on the bone on these, on these about designating the Muslim Brotherhood and Charis terrorist organization. There's a whole lot going on. Talk about special session, all of it. Brenda, we got a minute. What is your message to folks in Texas and throughout the United States of America?

[Brenda Platt]

Well, I'm really passionate. We have to be activists. We have to stand up and we have to fight. And I've got people putting pictures of me all over social media, angry. It's not that I'm angry. I have a passion to save Texas. If we don't stand up and fight, then we're gonna lose Texas. And people are saying, well, I'm just gonna Oklahoma. I'm going to move to Florida. No, stay here and fight. We've got to get our voices out and we've got to wake people up and we've got to get this younger generation, the Charlie Kirk generation. We've got to get them out and working because we're not going to be here much longer. The reason I fight is for my kids and for my grandkids. And as Texas goes, there goes the nation. So please, people, get the message out to people. Put it anywhere you can. Talk to your neighbors, talk to your friends, talk to your church, talk to your pastors. Pastors need to stand up in their churches. Just like Nate Schatzline. Man, he's amazing. He's standing up for Texas and even at the White House. And I just love Texas. Please stand up and vote on March 3rd because this is our most important primary I've ever been in in my life. Because we've got to help Texas and we've got to help Trump to have the House and the Senate so he can keep doing the great things that he's doing. God Bless you, Brenda.

[Steve Bannon]

We got 30 seconds. Social media where do people follow you? Ma', am?

[Brenda Platt]

I have a precinct. Brenda Platt, my precinct chair page is on Facebook. And Brenda Tucker, there you go. And as I'm a fighter for I went to the Capitol January6, I've been fighting for Trump. I fight for Texas. And I have a voice and you too have a voice. So please speak up and do your part.

Taj Gil, you spent the better part, I don't know, of a decade or so, couple of decades involved in defending the United States overseas in Islamic cultures. How important it is to you as a former serviceman that in the great state of Texas, which I think had the most volunteers for the war on terror, how important is it on this ballot on the 3rd of March to vote to prohibit Sharia law in the state of Texas?

[Taj Gil]

Sir, it's very important.

[Trevor Comstock]

Steve.

[Taj Gil]

I didn't realize how many Muslims are in Texas and how many mosques are in Texas. And then I saw some numbers over the weekend that there's 50 million Muslims in Europe now. And I think in the early 2000s there was like 500,000. So they're multiplying and they have more children than us. The, the Sri Allah, the Sri La can't happen. If they want to come here and assimilate, that's one thing. But they can't come here and start their own laws, the Sharia law. And there's a lot, there's a lot of bad things about Islam there. A lot of, I've seen it over there. A lot of child molesting over there. I'm just going to say it. They have a, they would call it man love Friday, man love Thursday, and we'd see it in Afghanistan and Iraq. And it's bad stuff. And the Sharia law, you know, they don't, I don't know why the liberals like them because they don't assimilate with gays. They don't assimilate with women. They cover them up from head to toe, except for their eyes. You know, they throw gay people off the roofs. It's not It Charlie Kirk said it best. Islam is not compatible with the West. They can come here and assimilate, but what they're doing, setting up mosques everywhere and then blasting the call for prayer, that doesn't fly, especially not in Texas. Texas is the heart of America. So we need to fight for Texas and fight hard. And everybody in Texas needs to get out and vote on the third and vote against the Sharia law. That's what needs to happen.

[Steve Bannon]

Listen, when you came back from defending this country over what I think 16 tours in some of the worst places on earth, you came back and you decided, hey, I don't want to just be a security guy. I think I got an idea. It was about building this great coffee company. Give me a minute on the coffee company and where do people go to get the best coffee on earth? And the people that tell us are the 17,000 five star reviews you've got on the site.

[Taj Gil]

Yeah, yeah. 17,000 five star reviews and growing. It's Warpath Coffee is the website. And then as always for the war room posse, use promo code war room. We dropped hot chocolate last week and then I, I showed it, I showed it on the screen on last Saturday. And the Saturday show is always big on the, on the war room. And by Saturday evening it was sold out. But in the, the promo code war room right now I bumped it up to 20 for an early fail for this weekend for Valentine's Day. So Warpath Coffee promo code war room. And if you haven't tried it, try it the way we roast it. We roast it on a perforated drum and we use fresh premium beans. We don't use cheap beans. The beans we use are the best beans and we roast them the best way. And that's why you can drink it straight black. You don't need milk, you don't need sugar. The coffee is amazing. We literally turn non coffee drinkers into coffee drinkers all the time. In the reviews show it, it's go on the website, read the reviews and try it. It's got 20% off. This weekend with promo code war room. It's Warpath Coffee promo code war room.

[Steve Bannon]

Get the special this weekend. I want to make sure that people know I'm not on the selection committee because when Taj came to me first about the K cups, I said, I don't know if we need that. Then he came to the about the, about the decaf. I says, I don't know, is that going to sell the warmth's caffeinated crowd? Then he came with a Hot chocolate. I said, I don't know about that. Everyone's been a home run. So I'm officially off. I did my job in helping Taj with the dark roast, the French roast and the espressos after that. I literally do not have my finger on the pulse of the war room. The hot chocolate sold out in a couple hours, didn't it Taj?

[Taj Gil]

Yeah. Yep.

[Nassar (Ex-Muslim Activist)]

Yeah.

[Taj Gil]

We launched it midweek. It started trickling out a little bit. But the Saturday show on the war Room, I held it up and we talked about the hot chocolate a bunch and it was gone by like four in the afternoon. It's so good.

[Steve Bannon]

One more time. Where do people go and they can contact you when they go to the site where they go taish.

[Taj Gil]

The site is Warpath Coffee and use promo code War room. Just go in there and read the reviews. We got coffee for everybody. Like Steve said. We got K cups, we've got espresso, we've got all the different flavor coffees. We've got mugs, tumblers. And then we're about to drop a bunch of hats. We got a bunch of, a bunch of different style hats coming out in the next couple of weeks.

[Steve Bannon]

Thank you, sir. Taj, thank you. Thank you for being here. To Warham, Texas. I know you got a great passion for the state of Texas. We're going to go to England now because we make the direct analogy. If we don't stop this in Texas now, we're going to end up like England. Nassar. Your interview yesterday kind of went, you know, viral. People were really shocked about what they heard about your conversion from Islam to, from Islam to, to Christianity and everything your family had to go through. You do run a group that is affinity group. It helps people talk to me about what you're doing to make sure that other Muslims hopefully don't have the problem you had where your family was essentially, you know, essentially tortured psychologically and also potentially physically when you left the faith. Tell me about this organization you're running to help people.

[Guest or Announcer]

People.

[Nassar (Ex-Muslim Activist)]

Yeah, actually the legalize aposty.com so it's there to highlight the perils and rigors of Sharia. The problem we have, Steve, is that the ex Muslims due to the overwhelming fear of, you know, backlash, fear for their lives actually, so they don't come out. I'm one of the very, very few. I foolishly believed in British democracy, you know, freedoms which I was born and raised with. But sadly those freedoms, you know, have been eroded and so they've become the Pakistani or Muslims have Become a protected class of people and we don't matter, you know, people like us. So what you have, you have a political correct, multiculturalism, you know, scenario where their rights matter. And of course, what's happened over three decades, the last nine years, I've been under police protection. My family and I living in a complete isolated place. Okay, so they don't buy apostasy. They don't accept it. Well, they know about it. They turn a blind eye. It's the usual scenario. We mustn't offend Muslims. And if I can take you to the rape, the rape gangs. Actually, this estimated 250,000 young English girls have been systematically raped over the last three decades. The police were aware, but their take on it was, look, we don't want to upset Muslim sensibilities. We now have a report by Mark Durie, he is a Australian academic. UK gangs. And so he has highlighted very matter of fact that, look, the police willfully failed parents who would go in distressed lamenting, please save our daughter, she's in a particular property with a group of Muslim men plied with drugs and drinks. Save our daughter. And very often they would be threatened with arrest. This is the madness of the system in the uk.

[Steve Bannon]

They would be threatened by arrest by the authorities. When people went to tell the authorities this, the police would try to arrest them. On what grounds? Hate speech.

[Nassar (Ex-Muslim Activist)]

Yeah, on the grounds that they just weren't prepared to go and listen to the parents and go away and take their daughter out of that situation. There are untold stories of neglect by the police, willful neglect. It's a failure across the board, okay? Judicial failure, police failure. This has all come to light and there have been now 30 years on, 20 years on, 10 years on where they are sort of chipping away and they've arrested Muslim men. These rape gangs, it's rape jihad, Steve. They're not grooming gangs. It's rape jihad. And this is what's happening across Europe, uk. It's been happening there for, as I say, well over three decades.

[Steve Bannon]

This is what Raheem Kassam wrote the book years ago when he worked for me at Breitbart, the no go zones. He talked about Rotterdam and everything up in these Midland cities. He went in there and what they do, they banned him from BBC, they banned him media, they tried to shut Rahim down. Before I get to your, I want you to give a warning to people in Texas before I go there. Your life today, you're under police protection and you're living away from things. Why is that are they still trying to come and terrorize your family? Did the police have to give you protection against that because you're an apostate?

[Nassar (Ex-Muslim Activist)]

So we had been failed by Bradford West Yorkshire Police. This went on over two decades. It nearly cost me my life back in November 2015, as you know, I ended up being kneecapped and suffered a broken hand to stop my head from being bludgeoned in. You can, you can see that actually the actual footage under legalize apostasy.com and of course you can read about the, the genocide case that we're actually promoting and we're going to actually, hopefully all being well, is take 11 murderous nations at this moment in time to court because they mandate through their constitution the killing of apostates. Okay. So it got to a point, Steve, that we were so psychologically damaged, okay, at nine years on and I'm still not right. If you see that picture with Mr. Hegsett, that doesn't look like me. You know, I was in a very bad state. It's taken me years and years actually to get over the enormous psychological damage. So I have six children, four daughters. They're very precious. So church leaders, including Archbishop Welby, 15 months before my attack in a Chancing meeting, I didn't approach him. He approached me because I was speaking to a, a black bishop, head of the Worldwide Africans Gafcon. And I expressed to him, sir, we are about to be killed. We've already moved once and we have a situation now where our lives are in imminent danger. And these bishops are not helping me. Four bishops past and present have failed me and my family. In actual fact, Davy James, one bishop, he told me he would not welcome me and my family to the church, nor ex Muslims because his excuse was we don't have the houses and the resources. In essence, Steve, what's happened is he's bowed down to dimitude, okay? And so it's a case of, if I can paraphrase, pushing you to the crocodile infested waters, hoping that he's not going to get eaten. So these are, these are political beasts. They're not men of God. They're godless people. They have an office, okay? So it is a godless country. And actually so we've been failed, very miserable. So 15 months later, going back to my point, after he refused me, he dismissed me with contempt and he pulled this black gentleman, Bishop Josiah, away from me. It's all on record. And actually off he went. Yeah, we know all about it. We do know we can. Off you go. Shoot shoo. And 15 months later, I was almost wiped out, actually, outside my front door, getting into my car. Okay. That took several months for me to get back on my feet. I can't express to you the, the tenacity of my wife, my daughters, who came running actually, after they heard I was attacked, I was incapacitated. They had to rush me to wire up my kneecap and wire up my hand because of the open wounds. And Steve, I begged my daughters before they took me to the theater, please, please don't come. I can't protect you. I'm incapacitated. I'm okay. They'll patch me up. I'll be at a hospital in no time. You know, and daughters being daughters, you know what they did? They came to support my, my wife. And actually, can you imagine how I felt? Spending 11 days taking morphine shots day in, day out, all through the day to get over the pain. It's been the most excruciating, debilitating injury of my life. Where was the church? Where were they? Nowhere to be seen. My wife didn't even get a phone call to say, how are you? Never mind a knock on the door or a visit it. We were left completely abandoned and isolated. Why? Fear. And so this is what we've lived through, actually. And then, as you know, we were talking yesterday, A year later, 10 armed police in a SWAT style operation descended upon my home through the. Through the back gate, through the front door. They almost kicked the door down to say they have intelligence to suggest that actually our lives are in imminent danger and they wanted to take us to a safe house. But because of the mistrust I had for the police, I actually declined and they weren't happy. And I ended up agreeing with them. They would escort me in a four car convoy. My kids were pulled out of school. My younger daughter, 15 years of age, was doing her all her exams. She was pulled out of her exams and I headed off on the motorway with a four car convoy. And they left me 20 miles up the road along the motorway. And they promised me that I would phone them every time I came back to Bradford so they could escort me to my home so we could start the packing process, get our belongings. So we, you know, this is normally reserved for Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, you know what, I could accept my fate if that was so. If I was born in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Pakistan, and they wanted to kill us, fine. But not Great Britain, which actually created religious freedoms and pushed it to the four corners of the world. So it's a failed state Europe has failed. England has failed. They've failed ex Muslims. We are in a very, very tight spot. England is not the country for us anymore. And so I'm so humbled to be here. Steve, I just love your First Amendment rights, honestly. My health has improved in the week I've been here. And may I please, if you permit me, you know, give a big shout out to Denise or Dee Laurenson of the Save the Persecuted Christians organization. She actually sponsored me. She found out about my story and she sponsored me over here. And I can't express to you my gratitude, meeting with Mr. Gaffney, Kevin Freeman, the love and the support, the affection they've shown me. And you know what? I've been in tears, actually, because I'm thinking, why didn't I get out from that country and come here 30 years ago? Why did I put my kids through this? But, you know, and I feel so bad for my children because their formative years have been lost. They weren't saving Christian schools, primary schools. They weren't saving Catholic schools, primary schools, because of the makeup and the, the enormity of the Muslim children. And they were making my children's life a misery. Call them kuffar. Infidel dogs. Dogs. You know.

[Steve Bannon]
