Guaranteed Human Overnight. The Justice Department launching a criminal investigation into the Federal Reserve and its chair, Jerome Powell. Prosecutors are focused on his June testimony before Congress about the renovations of its D.C. headquarters. A spokesperson for the department told CNN the attorney general wants to, quote, prioritize investigating any abuse of taxpayer dollars. But Powell says it's not about that at all. In a really, truly extraordinary video release overnight, he said this is Trump administration's pressure campaign over interest rates. The threat of criminal charges is a consequence of the Federal Reserve setting interest rates based on our best assessment of what will serve the public rather than following the preferences of the president. This is about whether the Fed will be able to continue to set interest rates based on evidence and economic conditions or whether instead monetary policy will be directed by political pressure or intimidation.

The civilian death toll from growing protests there has climbed to nearly 500, along with roughly 50 members of the country's military. This is according to the Associated Press, citing a U. S. Based human rights organization. Demonstrations against the current regime have been ongoing for weeks amid growing frustration with the country's struggling economy. In recent days, Iran's military has cracked down on protests, detaining over 10,000 people. According to the AP, President Trump has said in recent weeks he would consider intervening if Iranian protesters were shot.
Stephen K. Bannon
He said this, of course, one or two days after an American mother was shot for being at a protest. Okay.
Unidentified Reporter
Yesterday, he was asked by reporters on board Air Force One whether Iran's government has crossed a red line.
Donald Trump
Well, no, they're starting to, it looks like, and there seem to be some people killed that aren't supposed to be killed. These are violent. If you call them leaders. I don't know if they're leaders or just they. They rule through violence. But we're looking at it very seriously. The military is looking at. And we're looking at some very strong options. We'll make a determination.
Steve Bannon
Iraq said that they would consider military.
Unidentified Reporter
And commercial bases as legitimate targets in Utra.
Steve Bannon
Are you concerned about that?
Donald Trump
When they do that, we'll consider things, targets that they wouldn't believe. If they do that, we will hit them at levels that they've never been hit before and they won't even believe it. I have options that are so strong. So, I mean, if they did that, it'll be met with a very, very powerful for.
Conservative Commentator
Trump has done what Reagan did. Reagan went to the Berlin Wall and said, tear this wall down. Donald Trump picked the people over the ayatollah. Donald Trump says the best way to make Iran great again is for the protesters to win and the regime to come down. How do you do that? Whatever action we're going to take, Mr. President needs to embolden the protesters and scare the hell out of the regime. If I were you Mr. President, I would kill the leadership that are killing the people. You've got to end this. If it ends well, then peace breaks out. All the state sponsor of terrorism activity stops. Hezbollah, Hamas, they go away. Israel and Saudi make peace. A new day in the Mideast. If the Ayatollah hangs on, it's a giant Obama step backward. I have faith in you Mr. President. I have trust in you. You are the Ronald Reagan plus of our time.

Marxist, communist, socialist, anarchist and Islamist are working to destabilize the Western world. They are working together to overthrow Western civilization. And their last stop is the United States of America. And as Steve just said, the crown jewel is Texas. You know there were lots of different things that all kinds of plans the Russians, the Soviets had made to invade the United States. Not one of their invasion plans included coming across the border into Texas. You know why? Because they knew Texans knew who they were. They knew Texans understood the power and the grace and the goodness of this country. And they also knew Texans were armed and knew how to use weapons. The Federal Reserve official told me last night in terms of this call from Mohamed El Erian to for Powell to resign, that doesn't seem likely. A Federal Reserve official told me last night that Jay Powell is resolute and confident. That's how they're describing his state of mind last night. So it doesn't seem like this confrontation is going to end anytime soon with Powell capitulating here.
Far-right Commentator
Islamic Jihadis are plotting against you here and all over the United States. They are not coming. They are already here. They have unpacked their bags, set up their cells and are walking your streets. Islamic radicals have declared war on you. And listen to what they are saying. I just took a few examples. I could give you hundred examples. I chose a few like Uthman IBN Farouk, a Pakistani born Californian who was recently speaking in Texas. And he said the future is ours. America is will be a Muslim country. Islam will enter every house. We are unapologetic. We are uncompromising. I listen to a sheikh at a Muslim conference here in America. He told his audience, Islam has a political mandate so that you can rule the society in which you find yourself. And sometimes you have to burn it down before you can rebuild. And we are at a moment of reckoning. We have to introduce an attitude of power. And in Michigan, Imam Issa Abdul Karim spoke in the same vena the lecture in Detroit a few weeks ago. And he said, Muslims do not fear death. And he said it to explain why they do not fear death, to blow themselves up. And he said, this gives us power over them. And in Florida a few weeks ago, another imam said, jihad is who we are. And my message to you, my dear friends, is please listen to these people. Heed their words. Do not make the fatal mistake many German Jews made in the 1930s by thinking they are just exaggerating for effect. Those people do not speak in metaphors. They mean every word they tell you. Take them literally. Because if you don't, this is what's going to happen. They will, and I'm not exaggerating. They will burn down your society. They will blow up themselves in the middle of your streets. These radicals hate America. They do not want to join the American dream. They want to end it. That's their agenda.
Steve Bannon
We are going to show all of.
Unidentified Reporter
Them the door out.
Steve Bannon
And we are going to make sure. We are going to make sure that.
Unidentified Reporter
These people pay for what they have done to us.
Steve Bannon
This is all about the 15 to 20 million illegal alien invaders that came in on Biden's watch. And they all got to go. Not just, not just the criminals, not just the criminals. All of them have to go. This is a test of wills.
Stephen K. Bannon
Do we have the political and cultural.
Steve Bannon
Will to say we are a sovereign nation?
Stephen K. Bannon
You are not here properly and you're going to leave.
Unidentified Reporter
Do you see any checks on your.
Steve Bannon
Power on the world stage?
Unidentified Reporter
Is there anything that could stop you if you wanted to?
Donald Trump
Yeah, there's one thing. My own morality, my own mind. That's the only thing that can stop. And that's. I don't need international law. I'm not looking to hurt people.
Steve Bannon
This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people's not got a free shot. All these networks lying about the people, the people have had a belly full of it. I know you don't like hearing that. I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it. It's to going, going to happen.
Stephen K. Bannon
And where do people like that go.
Steve Bannon
To share the big lie? MAGA Media.
Stephen K. Bannon
I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
Steve Bannon
Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose? If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.
Stephen K. Bannon
War Room here's your host, STEPHEN K. Band Foreign.
Steve Bannon
The 12th of January in the year of our Lord 2026. I want to thank everybody associated with the amazing event we had on Friday all day, the team at Patriot Mobile and everybody else that worked to pull that together. Alliance, American Freedom Alliance, Karen Sigman, all the teams that pulled it together. It's extraordinary. Today at 6 o' clock we launch War Room Texas to focus between now and the 3rd of March on the primary, the Republican primary, about this issue of Sharia law and the Islamic invasion of the state of Texas, the crown jewel of the stars in the union, our republic today, by the way. So silver 85 bucks, gold now 4600. I need all of you to go to Birch Gold, talk to Philip Patrick and the team. You've had geopolitical turmoil, not just the hemispheric defense. You've also got what's happening in Ukraine, more assaults over the weekend and there is a carry battle group heading towards the North Arabian Sea. My strongest recommendation is that carry battle group should stop all the oil coming out, the illegal illegitimate oil coming out from the the regime to the Chinese Communist Party because if you cut off Venezuela and you cut off the Persian oil, both sanction oil to the CCP, I don't know, you've cut off 75% roughly, I guess maybe 80% to the CCP, you will bring them to their knees and let Lao Beijing have at it. Over the weekend, massive geopolitical conflicting from all the way from the streets of Tehran to the streets of Minneapolis. And what we understand from DHS is they are surging, they're going to surge officers into Minneapolis today. President Trump is not backing off there. Krissy Noem is not going to blink on this one. We also understand from David Hoke and Nick Shirley, my understanding is they're dropping another bomb either later this afternoon or early this evening. In fact, I think David Hoke will be on should be on Laura Ingraham tonight. It's a bombshell. From my understanding, it is going to dwarf the bombshells they've already dropped about the phony childcare racket in Minneapolis. This goes in, I think, to other businesses and Nick Shirley and David should be congratulated or honored for putting themselves in harm's way because I think it's getting very, very dangerous for these individuals as they go and do their exposes. So from the streets of Minneapolis to the streets of Taiwan, a world in turbulence. We're going to go though. We're going to start the show in the next segment today because we're going to build up to some economics and global capital markets in the second hour and things are happening with the Trump administration. Peter Navarro is going to join to walk through it. The but there's so much going on. A grand jury officially kicks off today in in Fort Pierce, Florida, I think it is. George Papadopoulos has got a pretty good overview of this. It's been up on Gateway Pundit. Georgia's going to kick off. Then we're going to talk about our military industrial complex. So the really the punch that the United States can deliver, hey, you're paying for it, so you might as well understand it. So Todd woods and Dr. Thayer are going to be here for that anyway. Shows on fire this morning, 6pm tonight, Eastern Standard Time. We're launching War Room Texas to focus on the Islamic invasion of the state of Texas and how this can be beaten back, starting with a primary on 3 March that bans Sharia law from the great state of Texas. We're gonna take a short commercial break. All morning. We're going to be playing the music of Bob Weir, the last of I guess the foundational four members of the Grateful Dead are now dead. Bob Weir passed away over the weekend. Bob Weir's music will take you out. And we will be back with George Papadopoulos in a moment. Sat here's your host, stephen k. Ban. Okay about this silver and gold, it's not the price, it's the process. We're kind of in a as we told you, the kinetic part of the third World War. President Trump has tried to stop it, but making limited progress in Ukraine. Right. They want American security guarantees, which I don't think are going to happen, but they want American security guarantees. They want security guarantees in Gaza. I don't think that's going to happen either. Carrier battle groups heading towards the North Arabian Sea. President Trump supposedly is being briefed tomorrow when that's in place. That would be perfect. That carrier battle group having been part of that back, I don't know, 1979, 1980 before summoned the audience even born, maybe even before their parents were dating. I can tell you that carry battle group right there can lock down you think the armada we have off of Venezuela can lock down on that oil? You can really lock down on the oil coming out of the Persian Gulf or the Straits of Hormuz into the North Arabian Sea, Indian Ocean, past Diego Garcia, which we'll talk we'll get Cleo on tonight, I think to talk about that they're trying to give away Diego Garcia. The Brits are essentially to the Chinese Communist Party, across the Straits of Malacca, to the South China Sea, up to the CCP. You cut off 80% of the oil to the CCP. And I think President Trump geostrategically understands that. But right now, I think any kind of Israeli or American involvement in Tehran just strengthens the. Just strengthens the. The regime. Of course, people are saying, no, no, that's not true. That's not true. Lindsey Graham. I mean, all weekend. Is it gross what Fox does? It's just so gross. Here's why it's gross. Think about what they did in Iraq. Think what they did in Iraq, the cheerleading. And then they abandoned it. Then when they don't get the ratings, when it starts to be a quagmire, they just kind of walk away from. Every now and again, they would show American troops, but they walked away from it. Just gross, Gross people. Horrible people. Horrible people. And Lindsey Graham people in South Carolina. I just don't know how you put up with it, man. It's just sick. A sick individual. Make Iran great again. We don't care about Iran, and we don't care about making Iran great again. The Persians are in the streets. They're going to make it great again. It's in their hands. Let them deal with it. They brought it on. The Islamic Republic. They brought it on back in 1979, 1980. They brought it on. Now it's time to. You want to cleanse it, you got to cleanse it yourself. Can't do it with outside. Can't do with outside forces. Can't do it with Israel. Do Israel and the United States in there, you're just going to prolong the problem. Let the Persians. The Persians and ancient civilization and culture are in the streets trying to overthrow an Islamic republic. This is the warning we've got to the folks in Texas. See how well it's worked out for the Persians. See how that worked out for them. Not particularly. Sharia law, not really working in Tehran. You can see that with the bloodshed, of course, Mandami, that's what they want to put. In New York City, you see this in Chicago, you see the Minneapolis, the red green alliance, Birch, Gold. Talk to Philip, Patrick and the team. We're trying to get Philip on tonight because this is explosive, what's happening. People are going for a safe harbor. They're looking for a hedge against geopolitical. And let's be honest, the Powell situation. Pals, you know, they've Opened a criminal investigation of the head of the Federal Reserve over lying to Congress, it looks like, over these massive cost overruns of which there are. Of this, I don't know they're building. They've always called the Federal Reserve the Temple because of the art deco architecture you see down there. What on is it Connecticut Avenue? The. No. Maybe Constitution.
Donald Trump
God.
Steve Bannon
Very complicated the streets in D.C. it looks like a temple. It's always been called the temple. Now they're actually building a pyramid. A temple. I mean it's, it's sick the scale of what they're building down there. Anyway, criminal investigation open on the chairman of the Federal Reserve. And capital markets are in total turmoil. Talk to Philip Pack, her team. Just go to text Bannon. B A N N O N 989898. You get the ultimate guide for investing in gold and silver. But you can also talk to Philip Patrick and team. That's what you need to do. Make contact today. It's the pattern recognition that's different here. George Papadopoulos. So, George, I want you to lay it out. The article that Jim Hoff wrote about you in Gateway pun is spectacular. If Grayson Moe can. Can get that up. I think that put that up on. On getter early this morning because there's been I guess a grand jury down there or something happening in four Pierce under this U.S. attorney that Mike Davis knows very well. So high on. But I think Brennan's lawyers already sent a letter saying, hey, we know he's going to be indicted, but we want this shifted to DC Is this grand jury that gets impaneled today, is that different than what's happened previously? And if it is, what is this grand jury going to do? And why is this such a big deal in taking down the deep state?
Michael Kunstler
Sir?
Donald Trump
Yeah.
George Papadopoulos
Thanks a lot for having me, Steve. Look, since the inception of the America first movement, President Trump's objectives have always been to prioritize and safeguard the American people from threats both domestic and foreign. You mentioned some of these foreign threats earlier in your show that the President has robustly responded to that we're affecting not only our security, our economy, but our social cohesion as a nation. But the domestic threats are the most difficult and pernicious threat to the United States. And the key pillar of the America first movement has always been to drain the swamp and to clean out the deep state. President Trump tried to during his first term. As you well know, he was subverted from within. This time around, he has patriotic Americans in key positions that are willing and ready to go all the way. So what this grand jury is all about is separate. And the grand juries that have recently indicted people like Comey, it was dismissed, but they're probably going to relitigate that situation. And what Brennan is trying to do here is he's trying to deflect and evade the grand jury that will likely indict him down in Florida. And he's trying to make some sort of argument that the judge is biased. It's in the jurisdiction that Judge Cannon was involved with, that this new judge there is going to be some sort of Trump ally. It's not going to work. And what FBI Director Keshe Vettel has laid out very eloquently, as has DNI Gabbard, is that the FBI, the DOJ, the DNI and the CIA are all looking at a 10 year long government conspiracy case in which they're likely going to look at RICO charges, look at the Democrat Party and the left as some sort of criminal organization writ large. And people like Brennan, Obama, Comey and the upper echelons of the Democrat Party are all now in the crosshairs of this grand jury that will be empaneled just today.
Steve Bannon
So walk me through it. You're as close to this because you're one of the first guys they tried to break. Walk the audience through it. What are we talking? Let's go back to the beginning when you talk about the deep state and you talk about a conspiracy, essentially a couple, right? And Michael Schur, Dr. Michael Schur, who is the lead CIA investigator and analyst in the bin Laden situation, put up, I think on, on Twitter and the, and the president United States reposted it, that there was a CIA coup on November 3rd of 2020. So this thing started back when they tried to roll you up in 2016. They tried to stop Trump from gaining the presidency. And then once he won, coming from behind in 16 and shocked him, they then tried to destroy his administration. And this is one of my reasons saying he's not really running for a third term. He didn't really have a first term because they thought he then go into 2020 and there understanding they couldn't stop him, they essentially stole the election. So walk through what you think this grand jury is going to be looking at.
George Papadopoulos
This was all about stopping an incipient populist, economic nationalistic movement from ever becoming what it ended up becoming under the tutelage and leadership of President Trump and people like yourself who helped grow this into the massive movement that is now reverberating throughout the entire world. That's exactly why in 2016, where you had a completely different political environment, both domestically and internationally, including in the European Union, in Australia, in other countries. What I believe happened and what I believe will be proven is that there was a international effort, a weaponized effort by the CIA, with the FBI and the Obama administration, utilizing some of these other foreign governments that had vested interests in an Obama third term, which would have been Hillary Clinton, that were then utilized to spy on the Trump campaign. And if Trump ended up winning, to then use people like Mueller and others to handcuff him and to destroy his administration from ever really taking off. This was all about basically destroying a movement before it could become what it did. Unfortunately for them, he won the last three elections. He survived two assassination attempts. He's on the war path right now, and the people in the positions of power are ready to take this all the way. And that's something that's diametrically different from his first term, where he didn't know D.C. and the people in there were more likely to spy on him and to subvert him than to help him. And that's really why you have countries panicking all around the world, including the uk, Some in Australia, about what this is really ultimately going to lead in terms of the United States relationship with some of these other countries, the oversight capabilities of Congress related to the CIA and the FBI. This is the most important, important investigation in modern American history. And it will have both domestic and global ramifications. Steve.
Steve Bannon
Are you talking about. George, I'm gonna hold you. Are you talking about the Five Eyes program? Those are the nations we're talking about, the Five Eyes.
George Papadopoulos
That's absolutely what I'm talking about. And that's why this is the most sensitive and scandalous situation that we have ever seen in modern American history. And when DNI Gabbard and President Trump calls this a treasonous conspiracy led by a former president, meaning President Obama, you don't use those type of words lightly. Those are not my words. Those are coming directly from the administration. And treason implicates foreign governments attacking your government. And that's exactly what happened here. Steve.
Steve Bannon
President Trump said that in the Oval that day. Hang on, George. We're gonna get to all this. I want to talk about who the characters, the cast of characters. George Papadopoulos. Todd woods was with Pete Hexseth last week in this. Going around on the industrial plant of the military industrial complex. And what he came away with was pretty startling about the advantage nature of our weapons systems and industrial process. You saw that play out in Venezuela and you may see it play it in other places. Hemispheric defense and beyond. Short commercial break Back in the War in a moment.
Stephen K. Bannon
War Room, here's your host, Stephen K. Ban.
Steve Bannon
Okay, pal. The Federal Reserve chair is having a criminal investigation has been open on him. A grand jury is impaneled today in I think it's Fort Pierce, Florida, which is going to go after the coup. The attempted coup. I don't know if it's attempted. I think you actually can say on the first term in the 2020 it was quasi successful. Of course you beat it back. At the same time we're in turmoil. You know, New York, Chicago, Minneapolis, Portland and Seattle have at least temporarily fallen. They haven't fallen like Paris, London, Brussels, Amsterdam, as Geert Wilders warned us about. That's what we're launching today. War Room, Texas, from now until at least March 4th or 5th, a couple days after the March 3rd primary to focus on this Islamic invasion of Texas in the effort to stop Sharia law. Think Sharia law is working? Check the folks. Ask the Persians. Go ask the Persians how that worked out for them from 1979 to today. Now, the country had problems 1979, Dugumera, but it was on a roll as far as creation of wealth. The question was who was taking it. I don't think it was evenly distributed among the people even close. But that issue became one they overthrow it for Islamic Republic. Look at the Islamic Republic has destroyed that country. Destroyed it. And now people in the streets want retribution. Have at it. It's the only way you purify these things. You can't come at the top and decapitate. Then it's not theirs. It has to be theirs. They have to own it. They have to take it down, just like Lao Baijing has to take down Beijing. We said this forever. It can't be the United States. Can't be. You can't. The people have to do it, which may happen in Venezuela.
Donald Trump
Right.
Steve Bannon
Just stand by when we say take it down. We the people here have a responsibility now we have one overwhelmingly. I just want to go back through before I get George back up and I'll have this I'll have this typed up so we can use it as a slide. How about that? But since 2014 or 2015, let's say when President Trump came on the scene and of course he officially ran on in mid June of 2015, we've had eight national elections. You've had presidential primaries, you've had presidential elections which Also are in those years, you know, you reelect the House. The House is like on a national basis and a third of the Senate. And then you've had midterm elections, which are national elections for the house. You've had eight. The MAGA movement has won seven of eight. Yeah. This is the whole reason for Fort Pierce is these people in the CIA and their compadres at MI6 and the, and the Five Eyes program, which is the intelligence services of essentially the Commonwealth, the English speaking intelligence services of what? Australia, New Zealand, Canada, England, the United States. They understand that a populist nationalist uprising in the United States would overthrow the post war international rules based order, which maybe started off as a good idea but devolved into a power and money grab of the elites in the world, particularly to impoverish and enslave, make indentured servants out of the citizens of the United States of America. That you would pay for it, your sons and daughters would go die for it and that you would get economically crushed. That's what's happened in this country. That's the big picture. And if you look at that post war international rules based order around the rim of the Eurasian landmass, from Western Europe to the Gulf, in the Gulf, in the Middle East, Israel and the Gulf Emirates in Turkey, you go around to the Straits of Malacca and the South China Sea in that part of India you go up then to Japan and Korea, those four big nodes. You have commercial relationships, you have capital markets integration, you have some cultural exchange, but primarily you have an American security guarantee. This is why we have troops in NATO. This is why we paid for NATO. This is why we have so many bases in the Middle east and we fought so many wars there since, you know, since really the Iranian conflict back in 1979 and 80 when we had the failed desert one. Ever since that time we've been involved there, the Lebanon situation with the, with the barracks, which President Reagan said was the biggest mistake he ever made. All the way to the Gulf War, then to the War on Terror, sucked into the Iraq war, sucked in trillions and trillions of dollars. Tens of thousands of our young people dead or wounded or ptsd. And for what? The commercial relationships until Liberation Day were upside down on every trade agreement from Western Europe to EU to the Middle east of Japan and Korea. All of it were upside down. And not just that, the private equity, the lords of easy money on Wall street purposely went out and shipped the high value added manufacturing jobs to China and India and Southeast Asia to impoverish you. Now they didn't do it specifically to impoverish you, but they wanted to hide, they wanted to get cheaper labor costs. So if you got impoverished, as a corollary to that, so be it. They don't care. You are just a cog in the wheel. Your family, your families have been here for generation after generation after generation and built this country and built, you know, the communities and the little leagues and the Chamber of Commerces and the Lions Clubs and the schools and the churches and all of it. That civic society that underpins everything, as Burke told us, Edmund Burke told us, the little platoons that make a country work and make a society work, they don't care. They'll take out the factories, they'll close the factories, they'll close the lifeblood that underpins all that, not just economically, but also for purpose. The people go and say, yes, this company, I was part of it, right? It's a manufacturing company, I'm proud of it. Look at, look how proud people were of the companies they work for. And they stripped it all away. That's the post war economic rules based order. They controlled it. And when they saw the rise of Trump, particularly saw Trump come down the escalator, they realized something was changing, that he was a vessel in which this righteous indignation of the American people would be channeled through. Let me Repeat, we've won seven of eight national elections. President Trump won the primary in 2015 and 16 and defeated the established order of the Republican Party. This was a Bush with his little sidekick, little Marco, all of it. Ted Cruz, you know, the Tel Aviv Levin crowd through Ted Cruz, that limited government, but Israel first. All of it. He destroyed all of it. Beat it all, in fact, in South Carolina, called out the Bushes right there for what they had done in Iraq. He won the primary. Then he won the presidential election against all odds. The greatest comeback at that time in American political history. And that's what shocked him. That's what George Papadopoulos, they rolled George Papadopoulos up and so many others to try to stop that from happening, from concluding on 8th November of 2016, they weren't successful. You, you, this audience said, no, we're not going to take a Clinton, we're not going to have her, we're going to have Trump. And Trump is pretty unknown, but I like the direction of what he's, where he's going, I like the cut of his jib. And then they had all hands on deck to destroy that term and to imprison those people around him in 2018, the one loss. People started leaning on their rakes, say, Trump's in office. I got it. It doesn't work like that. In 2018 should be the greatest example. Nancy Pelosi's people went out and hustled. They knocked on doors. I said at the time, they knocked on doors, they said, if you turn out, we'll impeach Trump. And guess what? They did. They turned out, I think they won 30 or 40 seats. That's our one defeat. Then the 2020 primary. President Trump basically ran unopposed. He won that. Then the 2020 election. We won the 2020 election. This is the beating heart of the coup. Understanding they couldn't stop Trump from taking power in 16. They couldn even defeat him with all the investigations and everything. So between the pandemic and the deep state. And the deep state, they propped up Biden and of course, came into lie when the laptop from hell, which they had hid, Remember, they had the laptop from hell from December, from November, December of 2019. And this was, barring Chris Wray, Republicans, because, remember, this is a uniparty effort. It's your globalist masters. It's the elite of the United States. We won the 2020 election. They stole it. And then they sent Trump into exile. They exiled him. And you remember in 21, that January, February, March, you remember a third of the audience dropped. Even War Room dropped out. They said, God, if they can steal it from Trump, as strong as he is, what can I do? I'm just a little. I'm just a little minion. No, you're not a little minion at all. It is upon your shoulders that all power rest. And you put Trump on your shoulders and he committed to come back understanding. And this is why it is the bravest, most moral thing ever done in American political history. Read Jack Kennedy's Profiles and Courage. Add it all up and what Trump did to the power 10. Because Trump understood when he committed to come back, that they would bankrupt him and they would come after him on all kind of false charges. They would try to imprison him and ultimately try to assassinate him in Butler, Pennsylvania, and down at. Down at his golf course in. In Palm Beach. But they thought they had it in Butler, Pennsylvania. There's nothing they will stop at to destroy this movement. And guess what? We won the midterms in 2022. We thought we'd try to get 20 or 30 seats. We didn't. I think we picked up what, 10, netted out eight, but we took control of the House of Representatives. President Trump won the primary in 2324, and then the presidency. Eight national elections since 2015 or 2016. Ten years, roughly. Eight national elections. This audience and the Maga mover have won seven. That's why they have to destroy you. They're out to destroy you because of your power. Not your latent power, your actual power. Has it been perfect? No. Are there tons of things that happen every day drive us crazy? Yes. That's just the process of history. But they understand the righteous indignation of the American people and the populist movement. And you see on the streets of Minneapolis what they want to do, they allow, they organize 15 to 20 million to come in here. Like all these scam H1B programs and all these scammers, legal immigration to turn every place into New York City. So they vote in Mandami with phony votes and quote, unquote, official votes. So you get Mandami, you get Karen Bass, you get the nutcase in Chicago, you get Fry in. In Minneapolis, and you get Waltz. And you see today, when David, when David Hoak and. And David Hoak and. And the courageous brother Shirley come out with even more evidence of even a wider scandal in Minneapolis. Because that's the system they've created to keep themselves in power. And this is why it's quite simple right now. It's either us or them. What George Papadopoulos is talking about is a grand jury to go after the key elements of this at the top level. But in the street level, it's in Minneapolis. They do not want mass deportations of illegal aliens, of course, the criminal class, but they don't want any deportations of this. And that's where the sharp end of the stick meets the resistance. We're either going to blink or we're not. And President Trump and Kristi Noem, at least everything I saw over the weekend, they're not blinking. Gonna double down, in fact. Isn't that the lesson of history? We don't retreat. If we don't retreat, if we go fix bayonets and move forward, we win. We never lose. This is what Texas is about. In Texas, they're coming in on cat paws, but they're doing exactly what they've done in Minneapolis, exactly what they've done in New York City, exactly what they've done in Chicago and Portland and Seattle, the great state of Texas, the jewel in the crown of this republic, historically, now and in the future, it has to be driven out. And it starts on the 3rd of March. It starts with banning Sharia law. Folks in Texas Texans just look to Tehran, think they want Sharia law banned a day they're giving up their lives in the hundreds and thousands in the streets. Short commercial break George Papadopoulos, Dr. Bradley Thayer, E.L. todd Woods, Peter Navarro, a cast of characters in the war room.
Stephen K. Bannon
War room here's your host, Stephen K. Ban.
Steve Bannon
Michael Kunstler joins us, the CEO and founder of All Family Pharmacy. I I've so fallen in love with the concept of what you're doing because people focus on Big Pharma and Bobby Kennedy doing great work over there, but they forget that there's also a distribution system that chokes you down and takes essentially away your consent. You've broken that paradigm. Why did you do it? How do you did you do it? And why is it a benefit to this audience, sir?
Michael Kunstler
Yeah, so we obviously, we try to make the cost as cheap as possible for the consumer. Basically, our Americans, our patriots, we're giving them direct access to drugs that, you know, physicians just primarily don't want to prescribe anymore. Big Pharma doesn't want you to have access to even just your traditional maintenance meds that insurances are just jacking up the pricing on, which are just very cheap generic drugs that we can offer at such a low cost, three months, six months supply. And on top of that, we're adding in some of the new items, the biohacking items that we talk about, something that Charlie Kirk, when he was alive, was big on, you know, hacking the mind, trying to unlock power that we, you know, is instilled within us based on age, decline, stress. So we're running a big sale with the biohacking items actually this week, which, you know, we can dive into. But ultimately we're here for all Americans. We want to give them direct access to medications that their physicians just won't prescribe.
Steve Bannon
And so, Pete, you have licensed personnel, physicians, et cetera, for all 50 states. People, come on, they go through a process where they're going to get they're going to get somebody that knows what they're doing to get licensed. So talk to me, how's that process? Somebody calls up that they get engaged, you engage them right away. What's the pro? I want the audience to understand the process.
Michael Kunstler
Yeah. So you can go directly on our website. Some people need assistance. They're not great with computers or maybe they want a little bit more knowledge about the process. You could call us up on our phone line 561-717-6794. You just pick the medications that you'd like to request. Remember this is a request from a physician. So pick the medications you'd like to request. We're going to ask you a ton of medical questions. We're going to get obviously your shipping information, some personal information so that we can get a prescription for you, a legal prescription from a doctor that's licensed in the state that you reside in, which is, you know, very important to abide by state and federal laws. And then once we get that prescription, if it becomes back approved to us, we're going to go ahead and ship it directly to your home. FedEx today. Process could be anywhere between one and six business days. Generally speaking, right now we're only, you know, maybe a day or two behind from the weekend. So we can get you medicine this week, you can overnight it so you get it next day. We have, you know, quite a few physicians on staff now and we're just only unlocking essential power that we have as a pharmacy and as a telemedicine group. We're going to bring more to the table for the American people to utilize.
Steve Bannon
And you've cut. And the reason that you can sell things cheaper is you've cut all the vast overhead from these other big pharmaceutical distribution drugstore companies, correct?
Michael Kunstler
Yeah. We work with only VAUGHT accredited secondary wholesalers. This isn't McKesson and Cardinal Health. These are huge conglomerate wholesalers who just jack prices up because they can. The insurer, they own the insurance companies and they, I buy from their secondaries. Their secondaries sell at maybe one fifth the cost that they would sell at. And so our primary wholesalers are these secondary wholesalers that'll sell it to us for cheap. It's the same drugs you're going to get. It's just a secondary wholesaler located in Texas, located in Louisiana, depending on where they are. And we get the pricing for so cheap that we can, you know, sell it to our patients at a very low cost. Rather than CVS and Walmart, who obviously work with insurance carriers or they are the insurance carriers, their primary benefit is to jack the price up of drugs so that they can increase ultimately your insurance costs, which has happened since Obama.
Steve Bannon
Now let's go back. What can people actually get access to you? So you got their maintenance, pharmaceutical meds, you got all types of stuff that you don't see in the normal chains. You've got all these new things that Charlie Kirk, I know was a big believer in. Just walk people through a couple, three of the different things that you have available that people. And I want to make sure people go and See everything that you have available. So what do you got?
Michael Kunstler
We have Ivermectin, our number one drug. We compound it in house based on the weight of the patient. So you get a pa, you get a weight based drug. We have Membendazole, which in combination with Ivermectin, people are using off label. If you've seen Mel Gibson, if you've seen all the interviews, Dr. William Mackis for cancer research. And then ultimately we have the biohacking, which we love, NAD plus, which is one of our top selling supplements medications right now. They're actually finding out that those with Alzheimer's are actually declining in their NAD levels, which is causing a lot of these neurological problems. And supplementing NAD on a weekly basis has proven to help. And so we're running a 30% off sale right now. NAD plus, methylene blue, samorelin, Somorelin is great. Glutathione, as you see in the Tylenol trials. Glutathione, where we're protecting the liver. As we get older, our liver starts to get beat up a lot from stress and from medications. And one way that we can kind of protect our liver is utilizing a weekly supplement of glutathione, which is Great. It's all 30% off till end of Sunday at midnight. So you've got plenty of time to place an order if you'd like to try one of these meds. I highly suggest the nad. I take it it gives you great energy, gives you good resilience and a nice recovery at the end of the day.
Steve Bannon
Michael, one more time, where do people go? Right now, I want both the phone number and where they go on the site because our audience loves the fact that you've got people that can guide them through. I'm one of those people in technology in this. I got to have somebody walk me through everything. So where do folks go today?
Michael Kunstler
AllFamilyPharmacy.com backslash Bannon. The code is Bannon30 to get 30 off your biohacking items. And then you can also call our phone 561-717-6794.
Steve Bannon
Listen, the first couple times we had you on, we know there's outpoint for more and posse members that are physicians or nurses or whatever registered nurse that could help. Are you still taking. Where do they go? If people want to be part of your system, where do they go?
Michael Kunstler
They can email us all family pharmacy, bocaboca mail.com. i have a few of them. We're waiting on a little bit of technology and then we're going to start bringing in more of these physicians. We love that they appreciate what we do. And they're part of the MAGA movement and the Maha movement. They want to make America healthy, and that's what we want to do.
Steve Bannon
Michael, thank you so much. CEO and founder. Thank you, brother. Appreciate you coming on.
Donald Trump
Thank you.
Michael Kunstler
Have a good day.
Steve Bannon
Bob Weir takes us out. The second hour is upon us. It will actually be more intense even than hour one. No, it's hard to believe. Stick around.
Donald Trump
Sam. It.
Date: January 12, 2026
Host: Stephen K. Bannon
In this charged episode, Stephen K. Bannon hosts "The War Room," dissecting breaking news and current events with unfiltered commentary and a distinctly combative tone. Major themes include the criminal investigation into Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, the intensifying political and cultural clashes within the United States (with a focus on Texas and immigration), global conflict hotspots (notably Iran), the alleged “deep state” conspiracy against Donald Trump, and the ongoing populist/nationalist movement. The episode features frequent references to President Trump, calls for grassroots mobilization, and several guest commentators—culminating in an impassioned rallying cry for audience action.
“This is about whether the Fed will be able to continue to set interest rates based on evidence and economic conditions or whether instead monetary policy will be directed by political pressure or intimidation.”
— Jerome Powell (quoted by Bannon), [00:42]
“If they do that, we will hit them at levels that they've never been hit before and they won't even believe it. I have options that are so strong.”
— Donald Trump, [02:31]
“Marxist, communist, socialist, anarchist and Islamist are working to destabilize the Western world... Their last stop is the United States of America.”
[03:41]
[05:24+] Far-right commentators:
“Do not make the fatal mistake many German Jews made in the 1930s by thinking they are just exaggerating for effect... They will burn down your society.”
— Unidentified Far-right Commentator, [07:48]
[08:22] Bannon:
“This is all about the 15 to 20 million illegal alien invaders that came in on Biden's watch. And they all got to go. Not just the criminals. All of them have to go.”
[08:22]
Emphasizes a test of national resolve—do Americans have the “political and cultural will” to assert sovereignty?
[20:23+] Guest: George Papadopoulos
“This is the most important investigation in modern American history, and it will have both domestic and global ramifications.”
— George Papadopoulos, [24:59] “When DNI Gabbard and President Trump calls this a treasonous conspiracy led by a former president, meaning President Obama, you don't use those type of words lightly.”
— Papadopoulos, [25:47]
[29:07+] Bannon:
“It is upon your shoulders that all power rests. And you put Trump on your shoulders and he committed to come back understanding... they would try to imprison him and ultimately try to assassinate him.” — Steve Bannon, [33:07]
Frames US history post-World War II as a conspiracy to “impoverish and enslave” regular Americans for global elites’ benefit.
[34:41, 39:23] Announces "War Room Texas" to combat the so-called Islamic “invasion” of Texas and to rally against Sharia law—tying local issues to global struggles.
"In Texas, they're coming in on cat paws, but they're doing exactly what they've done in Minneapolis, in New York City, in Chicago..."
— Steve Bannon, [39:23]
On Federal Reserve/DOJ Investigation:
“Criminal investigation open on the chairman of the Federal Reserve. And capital markets are in total turmoil.”
— Steve Bannon, [19:04]
On U.S. Foreign Threats:
“Marxist, communist, socialist, anarchist and Islamist are working to destabilize the Western world... Their last stop is the United States of America.”
— Stephen K. Bannon, [03:41]
On Deep State Allegations:
“There was a CIA coup on November 3rd of 2020.”
— (Paraphrasing Dr. Michael Scheuer), Steve Bannon, [22:27]
On Grassroots Power:
“If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.”
— Steve Bannon, [09:55]
On Immigration:
“You are not here properly and you're going to leave.”
— Stephen K. Bannon, [08:57]
This episode is a full-throated expression of the current "War Room" worldview: global conflict, domestic subversion, and grassroots revolution, all tied together by a sense of historical destiny. Bannon and guests see themselves in a decisive battle for not just the soul of America, but for Western civilization itself.
