Bannon's War Room - Episode 3861： WarRoom Called Hunter Biden Laptop; Dems Try To Block Voters In Georgia

00:00:01.000 This is the primal scream of a dying regime.

00:00:06.000 Pray for our enemies.

00:00:08.000 Because we're going medieval on these people.

00:00:11.000 I got a free shot at all these networks lying about the people.

00:00:16.000 The people have had a belly full of it.

00:00:18.000 I know you don't like hearing that.

00:00:19.000 I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that,

00:00:21.000 but you're not going to stop it.

00:00:22.000 It's going to happen.

00:00:23.000 And where do people like that go to share the big lie?

00:00:26.000 MAGA Media.

00:00:28.000 I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.

00:00:33.000 Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?

00:00:37.000 If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.

00:00:43.000 War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Band.

00:00:47.000 Tuesday 27th of August, Anno d'Armini 2024.

00:00:58.000 Hanwell here at the helm, filling in for Steve Bannon.

00:01:03.000 So we're not going to dig into this story today about Telegram and the founder, Pavel Durov, being arrested in France.

00:01:11.000 Though I have many things to say about that.

00:01:13.000 But that's the backdrop, I think, to our first segment with Mike Davis, which is Mark Zuckerberg's submission to have judiciary.

00:01:24.000 Because the backdrop is, is the regime, doesn't matter where in the world you are.

00:01:29.000 The regime, that globalist, anti-democratic organization, misrunning, malrunning your country into the ground, wherever you are in the West.

00:01:41.000 The regime is trying to take away your, your right to freedom of speech under the, the, the rather more genteel terminology of content moderation.

00:01:59.000 So that's the game right now.

00:02:01.000 Um, and there has been an astonishing submission.

00:02:04.000 Astonishing because it, it exists on paper.

00:02:07.000 The revelations themselves aren't new.

00:02:09.000 The War Room has been covering these things in, like for the laptop from health for years.

00:02:15.000 Um, but these things are, uh, on, are now becoming formalized and becoming formalized.

00:02:22.000 They offer great opportunities to fight back.

00:02:25.000 Uh, Mike Davis, good morning to you.

00:02:28.000 Let's start off, um, with, because there are three fundamental points here in this letter from Zuckerberg to Jim Jordan, right?

00:02:36.000 The, the, the COVID, the, the, the fact that the Biden regime was pressurizing Facebook and that Facebook sort of rather supinely complied with regards to COVID.

00:02:49.000 There's the laptop from health.

00:02:50.000 From health.

00:02:51.000 And then there's the, the, the rather sort of more minor issue, perhaps to do with, um, the chance Zuckerberg initiative, which many people think was just a front for election interference.

00:03:01.000 Um, let, let, let, let's go through these things in the order of, um, Zuckerberg's letter to Jim Jordan and the COVID misinformation.

00:03:10.000 So basically as Zuckerberg can hear himself, I say, this is not new, but the fact that these are, that these are now, this is black and these facts are coming out black, black and white.

00:03:20.000 Black and white.

00:03:21.000 The, um, the Biden administration in 2021 successfully put pressure on the Biden, excuse me, the Biden regime put pressure on Facebook, um, uh, with, with regards to, um, information being exchanged on COVID-19 on the pandemic.

00:03:37.000 And many of the things Mike here on this show, I think it shows a pioneer pushing out the truth in face of, of government lies.

00:03:45.000 Um, firstly, what's your take here then on, on this, this paragraph here, uh, with regards to the fact that a government federal government was putting pressure behind the scenes on a social media platform.

00:04:00.000 Um, and what are the consequences of this?

00:04:02.000 I can't think of anything more dangerous in a democracy than the federal government putting their hands around the neck of a trillion dollar big tech monopolist, whether it's Facebook or Google or Amazon and app or Apple, and essentially coercing that big tech monopolist.

00:04:26.200 In this case, meta or Facebook or Instagram or WhatsApp are all the same company.

00:04:31.200 They're all part of the same organization and telling them if you need to censor so-called COVID misinformation and that COVID misinformation ended up being correct.

00:04:44.200 And that censorship likely led to many unnecessary deaths and other misery because we have the federal government censoring doctors and scientists and policymakers and other experts.

00:04:58.200 You know, the whole scientific debate, the whole scientific methods got shut down because of the Biden Harris regime, including Tony Fauci shutting down dissent.

00:05:10.200 They wanted people to believe that the six foot rule was going to protect us from COVID and cloth masks were going to protect us from COVID.

00:05:20.200 That ended up being completely bogus science.

00:05:23.200 Tony Fauci admitted that the six foot rule essentially was bogus science.

00:05:27.200 Look at how much damage and destruction that censorship did because of those policies, because we couldn't question the six foot rule or we couldn't question the cloth mask mandate.

00:05:39.200 Just just imagine what look at what look what happened to kids in schools, particularly minority kids in schools, poor black kids and Hispanic kids in schools that Democrats pretend to protect and champion.

00:05:53.200 Look at how badly they were damaged during COVID because of these bogus lockdowns based upon this six foot rule and this cloth mask mandate.

00:06:02.200 Mike, Steve Bannon has said on this show over a number of years that these social media companies need to be managed as effective as if they are utilities state utilities because of their effective monopolistic share of the market.

00:06:21.200 Now, obviously, some libertarians will take a step back from that and say, you know, it's not really the government's responsibility to to be commandeering private institutions that that is effectively what has already taken place.

00:06:35.200 What would you like to see from an incoming Trump administration with with Steve suggestion in the background?

00:06:42.200 What would you like to see from an incoming Trump administration so that this never happens again?

00:06:47.200 Well, I will say this. The only thing President Biden has gotten right just about is his antitrust law enforcement against big tech with Jonathan Cantor at the antitrust division in the Justice Department and Lita Khan at the FTC.

00:07:01.280 They've actually they've actually they've actually followed our century old antitrust laws and are moving to break up these trillion dollar big tech monopolies, Google, Amazon, Facebook and Apple.

00:07:12.840 Kamala Harris, on the other hand, is terrible on these issues. 1.00

00:07:16.240 Trump is great on antitrust. Kamala is terrible. 0.93

00:07:19.320 Kamala is beholden to her big tech California billionaire donors at Google, Amazon, Facebook and Apple.

00:07:26.900 She has Anita Dunn, a Google lawyer, doing debate prep for her right now. 1.00

00:07:31.740 So that tells you where Kamala stands on big tech. 1.00

00:07:34.280 When President Trump is back in office, he needs to continue what he started.

00:07:39.060 And President Biden and his antitrust division and FTC, to their credit, have continued, which is breaking up big tech.

00:07:45.540 If Facebook competed against Instagram and WhatsApp instead of acquired it, they wouldn't be censoring Americans.

00:07:52.740 If Google competed against YouTube instead of acquired YouTube, they wouldn't be censoring Americans.

00:07:58.960 They would be competing for Americans. 0.61

00:08:00.480 They wouldn't be they wouldn't be trying to curry favor with the federal government for their antitrust amnesty and their Section 230 immunity.

00:08:09.740 If there were 10 big tech companies instead of four.

00:08:14.160 Right. And that's that's the key is we need to update and enforce our century old antitrust laws.

00:08:19.720 We need to target these anti-competitive tumors, Google, Amazon, Facebook and Apple.

00:08:25.200 We need to break them up so they do not have gatekeeping power over information and commerce.

00:08:30.360 And the federal government doesn't hijack or commandeer their gatekeeping power and have these big tech platforms censor and otherwise violate our constitutional rights, which the federal government can't do.

00:08:42.680 What they're doing when when these big tech platforms collude with the federal government to censor Americans, they are violating federal law.

00:08:51.720 It is a crime to conspire to deprive Americans of our constitutional rights, including our constitutional rights of free speech and association.

00:09:01.720 That is a violation of 18 U.S.C. 241 and 242.

00:09:07.120 On that point, when and if if and when in November, President Trump gets his hands on the weaponized DOJ.

00:09:19.580 Can he do something about this?

00:09:21.720 If federal law is being broken.

00:09:24.100 Absolutely. He should.

00:09:25.100 The Trump 47 Justice Department should open a criminal probe on day one with this this what appears to be a clear criminal conspiracy to violate the constitutional rights of Americans, their free speech rights.

00:09:39.760 You have the federal governments colluding with these big tech monopolist to censor Americans.

00:09:45.980 That is clearly a deprivation of rights under color of law.

00:09:50.780 Well, that is clearly a conspiracy against rights.

00:09:54.020 Again, 18 U.S.C. 241 and 242.

00:09:57.320 And so you can do that on day one.

00:09:59.400 You can also fire people on day one.

00:10:02.540 You can also bring civil lawsuits on day one.

00:10:05.700 You can reassign people with the career civil servants who are impossible to fire.

00:10:10.320 So if there are people, for example, who have been coddling big tech in the Justice Department, reassign them to changing diapers on the southern border until they quit.

00:10:20.180 I mean, there are a lot of things that you can do to change to change this.

00:10:24.120 Mike, moving on to the laptop from hell, Mark Zuckerberg says rather sedately, look, the background of this is there was a poll that came out.

00:10:35.920 You'll remember this, that where where the majority of the American people said, had they have known that the laptop from hell was genuine, that would have changed their vote.

00:10:45.760 And when I say majority of people said that, enough people had said that in that poll, I think it was like a year, 18 months ago, that that would have changed the result of 2020.

00:10:55.440 That's the that's the takeaway point here, that enough people were misled by you had all the 50 signatures from the deep state intelligence services to the New York Post.

00:11:07.740 You had all this this going on.

00:11:10.220 People said if they knew that that story was true, that would have changed their vote.

00:11:15.160 And enough people have said that that would have that would have changed the election.

00:11:18.300 Right.

00:11:18.620 Given that reality, given that reality, given that reality, given that reality, the few lines that Mark Zuckerberg dedicates to the to the laptop, which was an election defining.

00:11:33.040 Yeah.

00:11:34.080 So on this point, let's not get into the stolen election aspect.

00:11:37.140 But that that in itself was an election defining issue.

00:11:41.260 Six, seven, eight lines here just to say, oh, look, we've implemented some processes to make sure this doesn't happen.

00:11:48.620 And again, my question is, Donald Trump was criminally indicted in New York because of a payment.

00:11:56.880 To to Stormy Daniels, which was considered to be retrospectively a campaign expense that Donald Trump tried to avoid declaring.

00:12:07.100 Is this is this that this had a massive influence on the 2020 election, that part of it which wasn't stolen?

00:12:14.020 Right. Is this not an aid to an election campaign in kind?

00:12:19.840 What the secret services, what the what the services, intelligence services, what they did with their letters, what Facebook did in suppressing, which admits here that the New York Post story are these these things had an election consequences.

00:12:36.280 Why aren't they being calculated in the same way with the same degree of fanaticism that Donald Trump's payment to Stormy Daniels was considered?

00:12:46.440 Why is the DOJ, which Merrick Garland claim says of the law that it's that no one's above the law.

00:12:52.980 Why? Why? Why?

00:12:54.140 Why is this going to stay here and nothing to happen?

00:12:57.500 Why aren't they going to be criminal indictments based on that?

00:13:00.760 This was election interference.

00:13:02.380 Mike Davis.

00:13:03.520 Yeah, absolutely.

00:13:04.080 So President Trump, then then presidential candidate Donald Trump had a nuisance claim against him by Stormy Daniels.

00:13:14.140 And in 2000, 2017, when he was the president of the United States, he settled this nuisance claim through his attorneys and he put it in his private books as a legal expense.

00:13:27.920 I've settled many nuisance claims on behalf of my my legal clients over the last nearly 20 years.

00:13:34.940 I don't know what the hell else you would put it in your books under other than a legal expense.

00:13:39.320 A legal expense is a legal expense.

00:13:41.680 He put it in his private books, not his public books.

00:13:44.800 They weren't disclosed.

00:13:45.580 It was in 2017 he put it in his private books and somehow under the Soros Fund at Manhattan, D.A., Alvin Bragg and this Matthew Colangelo from the Biden Justice Department and this corrupt Manhattan judge, Juan Mershon, who illegally donated to Biden and Harris and whose daughter, Lauren Mershon, is raising tens of millions of dollars for Biden.

00:14:06.600 And somehow Trump's payments of that expense in 2017 and putting it into his private books as a legal expense in 2017 somehow affected the 2016 election.

00:14:17.640 And we just had a jury find him guilty of 34 felony charges for this nonsense, bogus theory.

00:14:24.220 Yet the Biden regime is colluding with these big tech platforms to censor Americans.

00:14:33.160 And somehow that's not election interference.

00:14:35.140 And somehow that's not a criminal conspiracy against Americans' constitutional rights under our very clear federal criminal civil rights statutes.

00:14:45.960 It absolutely is.

00:14:47.580 Mike, stand by.

00:14:48.520 We've got a break.

00:14:49.260 After the break, we'll also have Catherine Engelbrecht and Jenny Beth Martin talking about Georgia.

00:14:54.820 But let's finish off with Mike Davis in two minutes time.

00:14:57.940 Stand by.

00:14:59.640 The elites are getting desperate.

00:15:01.400 They now want to use the technology behind Bitcoin for their own Orwellian purposes, their gold to dominate our economy by forcing everyone to use central bank digital currencies, which they control.

00:15:14.380 Imagine your every purchase being called into question.

00:15:17.520 Your every move tracked like you live in a communist country.

00:15:21.400 This is not the America we want, but it is the America they want to create.

00:15:25.780 Fortunately, you can fight back.

00:15:28.280 I believe owning gold is the best solution.

00:15:30.640 Why?

00:15:30.960 Because it keeps you in control and safeguards your savings.

00:16:13.020 Here's your host, Stephen K. Band.

00:16:15.440 Welcome back.

00:16:21.960 Finishing off now with Mike Davis.

00:16:23.520 The latest news on the Jack Smith prosecution is that he has, the special counsel has appealed, Judge Eileen Cannon's decision to throw out the Trump case.

00:16:35.800 Mike, could you just give a very quick recap on what it was that Judge Cannon ruled and why the legal basis for Jack Smith's appeal?

00:16:48.740 Yeah, so Judge Eileen Cannon in the Southern District of Florida dismissed the charges brought by Jack Smith against President Trump related to the presidential records that President Trump was allowed to have under the Presidential Records Act.

00:17:05.360 The reason is that Jack Smith's appointment as the special counsel is unconstitutional.

00:17:12.100 He is not an officer of the United States, and he does not report on a day-to-day basis to an officer of the United States, which makes it unconstitutional.

00:17:21.300 Under our Constitution, the executive branch is run by officers, and those officers are created by statutes, like the attorney general or a U.S. attorney.

00:17:32.680 They are nominated by the president.

00:17:34.680 They're confirmed by the Senate, and then they're appointed by the president after confirmation.

00:17:38.600 And then there are people like assistant U.S. attorneys who work for the U.S. attorneys, but in order for Jack Smith's office to be constitutional, he has to be managed, supervised on a day-to-day basis by a constitutional officer.

00:17:51.760 And under the Department of Justice regulations, they have intentionally insulated him from day-to-day management by the attorney general or the deputy attorney general or a U.S. attorney.

00:18:02.400 In addition, he has an unlimited budget, which violates the Appropriations Clause, only Congress can appropriate, and to give this appointee who's not even an officer, this unlimited jurisdiction, unlimited power, unlimited budget is clearly unconstitutional.

00:18:18.620 Jack Smith has appealed this to the 11th Circuit.

00:18:21.320 It's not going to get resolved before the election.

00:18:23.940 President Trump is presumably going to win.

00:18:26.180 I hope he fires Jack Smith on day one and opens a criminal probe on Jack Smith.

00:18:30.580 Would it have been—is there any precedent for a special counsel to be Senate-confirmed?

00:18:40.680 No.

00:18:41.340 What we used to—we used to have the Office of the Independent Counsel that was created by statute.

00:18:47.800 After the Ken Starr investigation of Bill Clinton, Congress didn't like the Office of the Independent Counsel anymore, so they let it lapse.

00:18:55.920 And Congress never created a new Office of the Independent Counsel or Office of the Special Counsel.

00:19:02.300 And so what did the Justice Department do?

00:19:04.660 They just did it by fiat, that the attorney general thought that he could just create this Office of Special Counsel through regulation, give it an unlimited budget through regulation, unlimited jurisdiction through regulation.

00:19:17.360 It's clearly unconstitutional.

00:19:18.860 If this does get to the Supreme Court, I suspect the Supreme Court is going to agree with Judge Cannon.

00:19:25.340 What should Merrick Garland have done for this to have been constitutional?

00:19:29.920 It's pretty easy.

00:19:32.480 He could have had his U.S. attorney down in the Southern District of Florida run this investigation of Mar-a-Lago instead of putting in this partisan hack.

00:19:42.920 Jack Smith, whose wife was a producer for Michelle Obama's documentary, who's clearly a partisan.

00:19:49.880 Look, Jack Smith is the Democrats' scud missile they bring in to take out Republican presidential or vice presidential contenders.

00:19:58.580 They did this with Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell.

00:20:01.540 Jack Smith came in and brought these bogus charges against him.

00:20:04.720 He was a likely presidential or vice presidential contender.

00:20:08.300 He got destroyed with this bogus corruption trial by Jack Smith and this conviction.

00:20:14.400 It got reversed by the Supreme Court several years later, 8 to nothing.

00:20:18.340 It would have been 9 to nothing, but Justice Scalia passed away.

00:20:21.580 But the political damage was done.

00:20:23.480 Again, Jack Smith is a scud missile, right?

00:20:25.780 He takes out Obama and Biden and Kamala's political enemies, and then they pick up the pieces years later when the damage is done.

00:20:33.640 So with that backdrop, because when I was reading upon this story before the show, my question to you was going to be,

00:20:44.560 is this normal that a special counsel should take, should appeal a trial judge's ruling to an appeals court, a superior court?

00:20:53.780 But from what you're saying, none of this is normal in the first place.

00:20:57.460 I don't even know how Jack Smith has the ability to appeal.

00:21:02.400 He doesn't have jurisdiction.

00:21:04.560 He doesn't have an office.

00:21:05.900 He doesn't have power.

00:21:07.080 I mean, maybe Merrick Garland and the Justice Department can appeal, but I don't know how the office of the special counsel, which doesn't exist, which got struck down by Judge Ken.

00:21:15.500 I don't know how they have the ability to appeal this.

00:21:18.080 But separate from that, look.

00:21:19.800 Sorry, Mike.

00:21:21.020 Sorry, Mike.

00:21:21.600 That's a standing issue then, isn't it?

00:21:23.660 Isn't it?

00:21:24.040 Well, it's not only standing, it's jurisdiction.

00:21:27.280 I don't know how he has jurisdiction to appeal separate from standing, meaning I don't know how he has the power to appeal.

00:21:34.140 That's jurisdiction separate from injury, which is standing.

00:21:37.300 I don't know how he has either.

00:21:38.960 He doesn't have an office under Judge Ken's ruling now.

00:21:42.980 But let's set that minor hurdle aside.

00:21:47.100 He's going to appeal to the 11th Circuit.

00:21:49.560 This is going to take many months to resolve.

00:21:52.160 This will get, you know, a petition for cert to the Supreme Court.

00:21:56.340 The Supreme Court will likely take this.

00:21:58.820 In the meantime, President Trump is almost certainly going to win.

00:22:02.440 I mean, if we're on this current trajectory, as long as we get out Trump supporters and vote as early as possible, Trump's going to win.

00:22:08.900 And then do you think you don't think on day one that President Trump's going to get rid of Jack Smith and then open a probe on Jack Smith and all these other Biden and Harris partisan operatives who have been running this illegal criminal conspiracy against him and his top aides, like Steve Bannon, who's in prison right now.

00:22:27.720 And Peter Devarro, who went to prison and Trump's attorneys like John Eastman and Rudy Giuliani and and Jeffrey Clark and Trump supporters on January 6th, who have been persecuted.

00:22:38.940 Yes, persecuted per the Supreme Court's Fisher decision.

00:22:42.320 There must be retribution here.

00:22:44.380 And that's a big component of justice.

00:22:46.380 I think the idea, the prospect of retribution is going to take many people listening to this show to the to the ballot box on November the 5th.

00:22:56.580 That's, I think, a big incentive.

00:22:59.020 I just want to synthesize that I've understood the legal arguments here for this.

00:23:03.000 So you're basically saying that Judge Judge Eileen Cannon ruled that Jack Smith's office did not exist.

00:23:11.800 And therefore, because of that ruling, he somewhat ironically, therefore, lacks the jurisdiction that he would have needed to have had to appeal to this case to the 11th Circuit.

00:23:24.260 Is that right?

00:23:24.740 Is that what you're saying?

00:23:25.880 Let's put this in a way that the Democrats can understand.

00:23:28.600 Let's say that President Trump's back in office on January 20th, 2025, and he decides he just wants to create the office of the viceroy and appoint Crazy Mike Davis as the viceroy and give me unlimited budgets, unlimited jurisdiction, unlimited power and very little accountability to Congress and even to the attorney general.

00:23:50.140 I just kind of do my own thing.

00:23:51.740 Do the Democrats really want that?

00:23:53.420 Do you think that I'm going to do you think that during my reign as viceroy, I'm going to I'm going to be kind and merciful?

00:24:00.820 Hell, no.

00:24:01.320 I'm going to I'm going to exact retribution against Biden and Kamala and Jack Smith and Fannie Willis and Tish James and Judge Mershon and Laura Mershon.

00:24:11.720 There will be hell to pay if that happens.

00:24:13.520 Do Democrats really think it's constitutional that a president or his attorney general can just make up this all powerful office of special counsel, despite what Congress has done?

00:24:25.900 This is clearly unconstitutional and Democrats don't want to play this game.

00:24:32.220 OK, got it.

00:24:34.660 Where do folks go, Viceroy, to stay up to date with your output on social media?

00:24:41.840 You can go to the Viceroy's website, article three project dot org, article number three project dot org.

00:24:50.180 You can donate there.

00:24:51.820 You can take action.

00:24:52.980 We're really gearing up on election integrity, which is the next battle in the in the Biden Kamala lawfare against Trump.

00:25:00.760 So take action there.

00:25:02.740 You can also follow us on social media.

00:25:05.300 And thank you for having me on, Ben.

00:25:07.660 Mike Davis, thanks so much.

00:25:08.860 You're a star.

00:25:09.220 Dan, let's go for the quick two and a half minute clip to herald election Georgia election board hit coming up.

00:25:18.200 One of the things that has happened over the last four years since Trump tried to overturn his election loss in 2020 is that the Republican Party has installed election officials in counties and states all across the country who not only parrot Trump's idea that the 2020 election was somehow stolen,

00:25:37.080 But they have started doing what he wanted election officials to do for him in 2020.

00:25:44.380 They have started refusing to certify election results.

00:25:48.980 Now, they've done this in a number of states around the country, some blue states, some swing states, some red states.

00:25:55.660 But the state where Republicans have done this more often than any other state in the country is Georgia.

00:26:02.680 Republicans are now trying these gambits to block the certification of election results everywhere.

00:26:07.420 But they have been trying it most aggressively in Georgia.

00:26:10.500 And over these last few weeks, a really alarming situation has emerged in Georgia because there is a newly appointed pro-Trump majority on the official Georgia state election board.

00:26:22.980 And in recent weeks, they have passed a flurry of new rules that purport to legalize some of these tactics that purport to empower local election officials to actually do this stuff, to block the certification of the vote or to delay the certification of the vote.

00:26:40.800 And this state election board in Georgia is apparently planning to do much more of this, even as we are getting closer and closer to the election date.

00:26:49.760 The Washington Post just reported that the election board plans to adopt nearly a dozen additional rules beyond the new ones they've just put into effect over coming weeks.

00:27:01.700 Quote, despite warnings from state and local officials that the lateness of the calendar all but guarantees confusion and mistakes.

00:27:08.400 But Democrats are prepared and we will stop them.

00:27:12.220 Certifying an election is not a choice.

00:27:14.600 It is the law.

00:27:15.820 A few unelected extremists can't just decide not to count your vote.

00:27:19.880 That's why we have won case after case in court, fending off MAGA efforts to chip away at our democracy.

00:27:25.320 We will win this case, too, and keep fighting so that every eligible voter can confidently cast their vote, knowing it will count.

00:27:33.320 So, Georgians know that Trump is working to sow chaos and division and to roll back our democracy.

00:27:40.880 And we've refused to let that happen.

00:27:42.880 We are not going back.

00:27:44.820 And thanks to state leaders like Senator Nabila Islam Parks and State Rep Sam Park, these efforts to subvert our democracy, they're not going to go unchallenged. 0.85

00:27:57.320 There you go.

00:28:00.320 Stand by.

00:28:12.540 Another day, another breaking news story buried.

00:28:15.100 They rather talk about anything else than what's really going on.

00:28:18.180 It's not because they don't know what's happening.

00:28:20.500 The media pundits and talking heads just don't want to pay any attention to it.

00:28:24.660 And they particularly don't want you paying any attention to it.

00:28:27.660 The real stories, you have to look beyond the headlines for them.

00:28:31.540 You know the truth is being covered up.

00:29:27.780 Here's your host, Stephen K. Mann.

00:29:35.020 Welcome back.

00:29:35.900 Well, it's no surprise that Georgia, being one of the six predicted swing states in the election, 2024 election in November, is now coming under increasing pressure, also in courts.

00:29:52.680 This is before anyone's even cast a vote just yet.

00:29:55.780 And there's a lawsuit, as we just heard, that has been presented by the Democratic Party that said that the Georgia State Election Board will, its rulings, its last-minute rule changes, will guarantee chaos after the November election if this ruling is allowed to stand.

00:30:19.320 Now, we've been talking about this for some time on the show.

00:30:23.920 Jenny, Beth Martin, you were expounding the implications of this in a very positive way just a few days ago.

00:30:33.660 Would you like to recap what the SEB had ruled?

00:30:38.800 And then we'll hear from Catherine Engelblatt.

00:30:41.860 Sure.

00:30:42.280 Thanks so much for having me.

00:30:43.320 So the Georgia State Election Board has done several things to improve the processing in getting to the point where you certify ballots, and contrary to what—or certify elections, and contrary to what Rachel Maddow and the left is saying, if you are on an election board, you still must certify the election.

00:31:04.800 The state election board has said that the local boards of election are able to review information prior to certification.

00:31:14.260 I think that's extremely important because in 2020, the certification, and even in 2022, the certification happens even when the local election board still has questions and they're trying to understand how things went wrong.

00:31:30.560 Like in 2022, I mentioned when we last spoke that in DeKalb County, Georgia, in a primary election, a Democrat person who was running for office came in in third place.

00:31:44.200 The machine count showed that she was in third place, but it showed she had no votes in her own precinct. 0.60

00:31:51.440 And really, after they wound up going back and trying to count the ballots again, she still had no votes in her own precinct.

00:31:58.820 She voted for herself.

00:31:59.720 She should have had at a minimum one. 0.90

00:32:02.420 They counted the ballots, and she was the first place challenger, first place finisher, went on to a runoff, and is now a county commissioner in DeKalb County, Georgia.

00:32:12.540 So there are problems, but the board members wondered, are all the rest of the elections correct or not?

00:32:20.160 And they had to go ahead and certify even though they had those kind of questions.

00:32:25.280 This may not completely eliminate that issue because there is a deadline and they must certify by that deadline, but at least they can review information and have access to information so that when they go to certify, they're making the best certification.

00:32:41.540 And if that isn't, they're certifying to the best of their knowledge and ability.

00:32:47.000 And if that isn't the purpose of the board for certification, then why not just let the machine automatically issue a certification?

00:32:55.320 If it's all just ministerial, the machine counts the ballots, just let that be the end of it.

00:33:00.120 Why do you need people involved?

00:33:01.800 You need people involved to be kind of guardrails and checks and balances on the rest of the election system.

00:33:08.280 And otherwise, why have the people involved at all?

00:33:12.580 The board also did a couple of other things.

00:33:14.900 Let me go through those very quickly.

00:33:17.300 They said that they must have tracking of absentee ballots through the United States Postal Service.

00:33:25.540 They said that poll watchers from all political parties must have the ability to observe processing of ballots.

00:33:33.020 Processing of ballots is supposed to be open to the public anyway, so this shouldn't be a difficult thing to achieve.

00:33:40.380 They said that local counties must post the results from early voting prominently either on their building or on their website.

00:33:50.400 They have those results, so posting them shouldn't be an issue.

00:33:53.920 Just go ahead and put them up.

00:33:55.140 If you're sending them on, make them public information.

00:33:58.140 And then quickly, make them public information quickly and locally so that you can ensure that the information being transmitted is correct and stays the same between the county and the state.

00:34:09.080 And then the last thing is that they said that you've got to count the physical number of paper ballots, and that has to match the number of ballots that were scanned by the machine and the number of ballots that were issued based on the number of people who checked into a precinct.

00:34:25.020 So each precinct has to count that.

00:34:27.360 That's just basic accounting and reconciliation.

00:34:30.660 These are not strange, draconian, hard things to enact.

00:34:34.520 And the left just, why doesn't the left want these common sense changes to happen?

00:34:40.560 That's a real question.

00:34:42.180 It will ensure that people, regardless of political party, can trust the outcome much better than they did in Georgia in 2022, like I just mentioned with DeKalb County, Georgia, or 2020, like we saw as Trump supporters, or 2018 for the people who supported Stacey Abrams.

00:35:01.900 It helps both parties to make this a clear, transparent, open process.

00:35:07.780 And most importantly, it restores confidence in our elections, which we must all have.

00:35:13.280 Catherine Engelbrecht, you have been, and through the vote, has been deeply involved in Georgia and its election shenanigans for a number of years now.

00:35:32.780 What does it tell you about the Democratic Party launching this lawsuit less than 10 weeks away from an election?

00:35:42.480 What does that tell you first off about the current state of the campaign?

00:35:48.580 Yeah, it tells me that the Democrats are going to fight tooth and nail to make sure that the fraud that we've seen coming out of Georgia over these last few years, that that remains institutionalized.

00:35:58.420 As Jenny Beth rightly says, all that the state election board is asking for in its new consideration of rules is, hey, let's follow the law.

00:36:07.260 Let's follow a process.

00:36:09.300 And that simply didn't happen in 2020.

00:36:12.060 So I applaud the state election board, and even more than that, I applaud the citizens of Georgia who have fought tirelessly to try to bring elections back to some semblance of common sense in their state.

00:36:25.540 And they're doing a great job.

00:36:27.660 The state election board seems to finally be understanding that what all the people want is a free and fair, transparent process.

00:36:36.500 And the Democrat Party is opposed for all of the obvious reasons, but I'll state the obvious, and that is that they intend to manipulate and exploit the weaknesses wherever they can.

00:36:49.620 Catherine, what do you think of the time frame here for any lawsuit here?

00:36:57.880 Is there any possibility that there might be a ruling before November the 5th?

00:37:06.500 You know, I'm no attorney.

00:37:08.500 I can say that it would appear that they're reacting to the state election board's most recent actions.

00:37:13.840 So, you know, the timing there makes sense.

00:37:16.280 I shudder to think that a court would look upon this case and say, oh, no, the Democrats are right.

00:37:22.360 They don't.

00:37:22.820 Georgia doesn't need to actually follow the law. 1.00

00:37:25.760 I mean, certainly stranger things have happened.

00:37:28.260 But I shudder to think that that would be the outcome of this case.

00:37:36.180 And if it is, then, you know, the other side needs to punch back hard and keep fighting just to the Supreme Court of the United States because we must have an underpinning of process that is transparent and accurate.

00:37:50.140 But otherwise, you know, we risk removing this final cornerstone from our republic, the stability of elections.

00:37:57.900 It's not something to be tampered with.

00:37:59.520 And we're dangerously close now.

00:38:00.840 So I hope the whole thing just gets overturned or thrown out.

00:38:03.800 But, you know, we shall see.

00:38:06.140 Jenny Beth, what are you hearing on the ground there about this lawsuit?

00:38:11.420 Well, one thing about it being heard or not, it has to go before Fulton County's court system.

00:38:19.840 And we all know the issues in Fulton County.

00:38:23.260 So who knows exactly what will happen with that?

00:38:26.760 I hope that I would imagine that it winds up being appealed at least to the Georgia Supreme Court before it's all said and done, if not, like Catherine said, to the United States Supreme Court.

00:38:39.060 People on the ground are really frustrated.

00:38:41.080 One of the things that they're extremely frustrated about is that the attacks from the left, they're so predictable at this point.

00:38:50.100 I've been doing this for so long and I've been called so many names.

00:38:53.380 And I know Catherine has as well.

00:38:56.560 We're sexist.

00:38:57.760 We're racist. 1.00

00:38:58.760 We hate all white women. 1.00

00:39:00.140 I mean, the list goes on and on. 1.00

00:39:02.300 Or we hate all women, rather. 0.98

00:39:04.160 Those are the kind of things that we get accused of for standing up for what we believe in.

00:39:09.160 Those kind of attacks are happening right now against the election board members.

00:39:15.620 I think there have even been attacks that the board is acting in a racist manner.

00:39:19.980 And one of the board members who has voted for this is a black woman. 0.58

00:39:23.760 It makes no sense at all. 0.58

00:39:25.680 And I think that that's very frustrating.

00:39:28.040 That lady who is a black woman, Janelle King, she was recently appointed by the Speaker of the House of Georgia. 0.87

00:39:34.600 And she put a statement out yesterday saying that she is doing this not to create—I'm not quoting her exactly.

00:39:43.600 It isn't to create chaos, but to ensure that the law is upheld and that the questions are resolved so that we have confidence in the elections.

00:39:52.660 So that is the intent.

00:39:55.300 And again, I'm not giving—I don't have her quote up right in front of me, so I'm summarizing it.

00:40:01.840 But that's the intent of this.

00:40:04.120 It isn't to create problems based on the color of your skin.

00:40:07.760 It isn't to create problems whether you're a Republican or Democrat.

00:40:12.360 It's to restore faith in the outcome of the election.

00:40:14.940 And, you know, I remember back in 20—in the year 2000, after the election, where there were so many questions with George W. Bush and Al Gore, the media were allowed to go back into every single county in the state of Florida and recount every single ballot.

00:40:33.740 And that put to rest many of the questions that existed regarding that election because you had someone who was independent going in and doing oversight of those election—of those election results.

00:40:47.560 That's never happened in 2020.

00:40:49.660 Every time anyone has tried to do that, there have been stalls and delays or there have had to be court cases.

00:40:54.760 And I don't want what happened in 2020 to be repeated.

00:41:00.740 And I think that the Georgia Election Board, regardless of how they voted on these rules, none of them want it to be repeated.

00:41:07.560 We need to have elections we can have faith and trust in.

00:41:11.180 And that's what these board members are trying to accomplish.

00:41:14.280 It's important to remember, I think, that President Trump himself has praised the board's three Republicans, referring to them as pit bulls, fighting for honesty, transparency and victory.

00:41:29.220 Catherine Engelberg, what can people do if they are to show solidarity with the nonpartisan election board here, trying to ensure that at the very least, in 2024, the election will be fair and transparent?

00:41:50.060 Continue to speak out as they have been doing.

00:41:52.700 Unfortunately, the state election board just recently moved all of their meetings from in-person opportunities to Zoom meetings.

00:42:00.220 So that new degree of separation I don't think is great for morale.

00:42:05.980 But nonetheless, Georgia citizens staying involved, reaching out to the party or candidate of their choice and getting engaged in the process to make sure that there is no polling place left unmanned,

00:42:18.560 that there is no absentee ballot left unreviewed, that Central Count has eyes on everywhere, just being there and ready to stand shoulder to shoulder with the state election board and other patriots to make sure that the laws are being followed.

00:42:34.900 And I think the final thing is the mindset.

00:42:37.680 We must go into this knowing why we believe what we believe and standing firm on that.

00:42:43.080 The season that we've come through where we've been told that up is down and that we can't trust what we see or that somehow following the law is, as Jenny Beth says, racist or immoral.

00:42:54.480 It's just it's this dystopian narrative propagandist nonsense.

00:43:00.260 Catherine, just quickly, 10 seconds.

00:43:01.740 Where do people go to True the Vote?

00:43:03.520 Where do they go for more information?

00:43:05.800 They can go to truthevote.org.

00:43:07.660 And you can see all the projects that we're working on, of course, across all social media.

00:43:11.140 And look, we're all in it together.

00:43:12.800 So let's just stand firm.

00:43:15.780 And Jenny Beth, where do people go for Tea Party Patriots? 0.99

00:43:18.560 10 seconds.

00:43:20.020 Tea Party Patriots dot org.

00:43:21.180 Tea Party Patriots dot org.

00:43:24.120 Thank you both very much indeed.

00:43:27.040 Americans spend billions on supplements every year hoping they'll make up for poor diet or help us avoid serious health problems later.

00:43:36.660 If you trust supplements for your health, know that Harvard Health found zero evidence they work.

00:43:42.580 None.

00:43:43.060 Zero.

00:43:44.340 So what works?

00:43:51.720 Field of Greens was created by doctors for people who don't always eat right.

00:43:56.520 Field of Greens is not a supplement.

00:43:58.580 Let me repeat this.

00:43:59.500 Field of Greens is not a supplement.

00:44:56.660 The petrodollar is crumbling before our eyes.

00:45:06.000 Saudi Arabia just declined to renew the 50-year-long petrodollar agreement, which means the U.S. dollar's global dominance is now riding on fumes.

00:45:16.720 How much longer until the dollar crashes in value?

00:45:19.880 Nobody knows for sure, but it's always best to be prepared.

00:45:24.300 I believe owning gold is the best solution.

00:45:27.420 Why?

00:45:28.240 Because gold safeguards your savings outside the dollar-connected financial system.

00:45:34.040 So if a crash happens, your hard-earned money will be protected inside precious metals.

00:46:28.340 Welcome back.

00:46:29.460 So my next guest is going to break down some of the recent developments to do with the housing, the property market.

00:46:40.220 As you know, for our constant talking about home title lock, most people's wealth is tied up in their property.

00:46:48.320 So what's going on there, I think, will significantly affect people's sense of their own wealth.

00:46:54.880 And this is important, obviously, as the mainstream media is trying to convince people as we head towards November that they've never been richer.

00:47:04.880 Sophia Georges, good morning.

00:47:07.540 Good morning. How are you?

00:47:09.440 Very well, very well indeed. Thanks for coming on the show.

00:47:11.920 Can you tell me then, please, if you wouldn't mind, how the increases in interest rates, mortgage rates that we've seen, will affect affordability for homebuyers?

00:47:27.700 And what are the imminent trends people might be expected to see along that axis?

00:47:34.920 Absolutely. So with interest rates, I mean, obviously, what normal people would think is when the interest rates go up, that the affordability goes down and home prices go down.

00:47:48.160 But in this case, we've sort of seen an opposite effect, where although the interest rates have gone up, we have seen affordability come down, but we've seen home prices go up.

00:47:59.700 And, you know, we've got our finger here on the pulse, my agents and I, and you hear a lot of analysts breaking it down.

00:48:06.660 But when you actually give the number of how an interest rate change affects affordability, it's astonishing to people.

00:48:13.780 So for every 1% increase in an interest rate, you lose about 9% of buying power on a home.

00:48:22.540 And when I tell that number to people, it's a huge number, because we went from the 2016 to the 2020 timeframe where you had interest rates that were at 3%, and now we're seeing interest rates at 7%.

00:48:37.440 Sophia, Sophia, would you mind just repeating that once again?

00:48:41.260 What was that statistic?

00:48:43.300 For every 1% increase in interest rate, a buyer loses 9% in buying power.

00:48:51.320 So to put that into perspective, if you were able to afford a $500,000 home, now you can only afford a home that's in the low to mid $300s.

00:49:02.600 And it's an astonishing number.

00:49:05.640 And there are statistics also called the affordability indexes, which also plays into that same trend that we are seeing with the loss in the buying power.

00:49:17.000 For example, from 2016 to 2020, we saw affordability indexes as high as 160, but they're all over 100.

00:49:26.140 And what does that mean?

00:49:27.280 That meant that 160% was the earnings on the income earnings that you were making over the median price of a home.

00:49:37.580 So people were actually able to save money.

00:49:39.720 And now in July of 2024, which is the latest statistic that came out, that number has dropped to 74%.

00:49:48.920 That means that people are only earning 74% of affordability for a median-priced home.

00:49:57.640 So they are unable to save money to afford a home at the current prices.

00:50:01.460 I think many people following the show will have seen, and I certainly did, and I was horrified by it, one of the few policy proposals to come out of the Harris-Walls campaign.

00:50:18.660 And that is the proposal to give $25,000 to first-time home buyers.

00:50:26.280 Could you break this down?

00:50:27.820 Because this seems to me, in Banana Republics, famously, third-world regimes could buy their citizens' vote by just giving them sort of $10 in an envelope under the counter.

00:50:43.800 It seems to me that Kamala Harris is significantly upping the game.

00:50:48.200 This seems like a straightforward bribe for votes to me.

00:50:51.160 Could you break this down, please?

00:50:53.940 Absolutely.

00:50:54.420 Well, the proposal is to give $25,000 to new-time homebuyers.

00:51:00.080 That was what she recently had proposed.

00:51:03.040 It sounds great on the surface, correct?

00:51:05.080 But first, let's define what a first-time homebuyer is.

00:51:08.620 A first-time homebuyer is a person that buys a home every three years.

00:51:12.740 So automatically, you know that that's going to be exploited right there.

00:51:17.460 Secondly, you're artificially creating a change in the market.

00:51:21.980 The problem has been the lack of inventory.

00:51:26.500 So if you are not incentivizing homebuyer or home sellers to sell their homes to increase that inventory, to increase, you know, the number of homes that are currently for sale on the market,

00:51:39.240 by flooding this $25,000 into the market, you're just increasing the demand, and you're not doing anything to change the number of homes that are for sale, which is the supply.

00:51:51.080 And all that's going to do is further drive the home prices up.

00:51:56.260 And that $25,000 is just going to go into the home seller's pocket.

00:52:00.000 And it's worth pointing out that you taxpayers are going to be paying for this $20,000, all taxpayers.

00:52:08.420 Everyone who pays taxes will be paying, contributing towards this $25,000.

00:52:15.020 And nothing is for free.

00:52:17.400 Yep, and nothing is for free.

00:52:18.580 When we saw the foreclosure moratoriums a few years back, you know, the banks had to recoup them somehow,

00:52:25.040 and they were recouping them through extra fees on closings and extra points on mortgages.

00:52:29.600 So nothing is ever for free.

00:52:32.560 Sophia, would you very kindly just stand by for a couple of moments?

00:52:36.320 We'll have a quick break.

00:52:37.980 We'll be back, finish off with you.

00:52:40.280 And then we'll be hearing from Matt Boyle to tell us that the polls aren't exactly what the mainstream media are presenting right now.

00:52:54.700 Hey, War Room.

00:52:55.680 Hope you're all doing well.

00:52:56.780 My name is Trevor Comstock.

00:52:58.180 I'm one of the co-creators of Sacred Human.

00:53:00.320 And I wanted to share just a little bit more about our brand for those who may not know of us yet.

00:53:04.080 But about six months ago, we decided to launch Sacred Human with really the simple mission being to provide American-made natural supplements without all the artificial nonsense.

00:53:15.880 So unfortunately, as many of you know, a lot of these big corporate supplements will include things like preservatives, artificial ingredients, and other additives that really aren't benefiting your health.

00:53:26.500 So that's why we created Sacred Human, really trying to fill this gap of quality supplements.

00:53:30.980 And of course, the beef liver being our flagship products.

00:53:34.840 For those who don't know, beef liver is loaded with highly bioavailable ingredients such as vitamin A, B12, zinc, CoQ10, etc.

00:53:44.360 And because it is 100% grass-fed and natural, your body is able to absorb these nutrients far better than taking any other synthetic multivitamin or any other synthetic vitamin in general.

00:53:56.280 So we have some other amazing products, but if you'd like to check us out, you can go to sacredhumanhealth.com and cheers to your health.
