Transcript

00:00:00.000 of the Centers for Disease Control, Dr. Susan Monarez, has been fired. Earlier this evening,
00:00:05.580 the Department of Health and Human Services announced that Dr. Monarez is, quote,
00:00:10.300 no longer director of the CDC. She was confirmed by the Senate less than a month ago.
00:00:16.440 The Washington Post reports she was pressed for days by HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.,
00:00:21.840 administration lawyers, and other officials over whether she would support rescinding certain
00:00:27.100 approvals for coronavirus vaccines. Kennedy and other officials questioned Monarez on Monday
00:00:32.840 on whether she was aligned with the administration's efforts to change vaccine policy.
00:00:37.820 Well, this afternoon, Dr. Monarez's attorney said she would not resign, that she was being targeted
00:00:43.020 for political reasons and that she had not been notified by the White House that she was fired.
00:00:47.620 But tonight, the White House confirmed she was officially terminated. The CDC is now also without
00:00:54.220 some key senior leaders following the HHS announcement that Monarez was out. Four other
00:00:59.900 top officials resigned. One said they could no longer serve in the role because of the ongoing
00:01:05.940 weaponizing of public health. I'm going to say that again. Ongoing weaponizing of public health.
00:01:12.720 You have a group of individuals who, you know, as Steve Bannon originally said in 2015,
00:01:18.580 and no one paid attention, are trying to deconstruct the administrative state and create a government
00:01:23.860 that they want. Burn it down. Burn it down to the ground. And this is extremely dangerous stuff. I
00:01:28.420 mean, not just from an economic perspective, we know what's going on at the Fed. From a health
00:01:32.520 perspective, what's going on at the CDC and at the NIH and everywhere else in the Department of Health
00:01:37.080 and Human Services. You know, I'm 64 and a half. I will have every pre-existing condition written out
00:01:43.200 that God knows to me, you know, has created in order to get the vaccines that I'm entitled to so I can
00:01:49.480 stay healthy, you know, before I start drawing my Medicare that I'm not going to get next year.
00:01:53.760 And so in our country, in order to continuously make excuses on why we are not going to take a
00:02:01.260 collective action on a federal level that collectively addresses this problem is beyond me.
00:02:07.220 And I want the mothers, you know, in this country to to rise up and to recognize that for the love of the
00:02:15.240 Second Amendment, for the love of our gun culture, we have to have a greater love for our kids. We have
00:02:21.840 to have a greater love for the safety of our communities. Something has to prevail because the
00:02:27.820 rest of the world has decided that they love their children way more than they love their ability to
00:02:34.980 have easy access to guns. And we have to get there as well. The reality is that we have an
00:02:42.060 administration that has got this, you know, make America healthy again, thing going on.
00:02:49.120 I just for the for the record, just said that's a load of crap. Because I don't know how you make
00:02:53.600 people healthy when you deny them access to vaccines. I don't know how you make people healthy
00:02:57.820 when you fire the people who do the research and who do the development and work within the
00:03:03.800 institutions of government to make sure you have access to all of those things that you need to
00:03:09.480 be healthy. So this is this is a large crock, which it typically is. And and it's it's frustrating
00:03:15.840 on so many levels. Dr. Ed Leonard, particularly when you see in states like West Virginia,
00:03:22.920 you have efforts underway by the Trump administration to offer religious exemptions from school vaccine
00:03:29.320 mandates, alarming public health advocates who see it as part of a broader campaign
00:03:34.020 vaccine to undermine an effective immunization strategy. How the hell do you make America healthy
00:03:39.480 again when you put sending kids to school with exposure to potential diseases that could harm
00:03:44.840 and kill them? Can we all just get a grip and understand what's happening here? I don't understand
00:03:49.740 this. It's amazing. And by the way, there's things that are happening that are not really in the public
00:03:54.600 eye. For example, we withdrew from the World Health Organization. And that's where we and colleagues from
00:04:00.900 across the world were doing collaborative research, coming up with new ideas, new vaccines, new solutions
00:04:06.860 to these problems. And by the way, I just want to couple this for a second with the story about the
00:04:12.240 school shooting. You know, you want American children healthy and safe. And we have these 350 or 400 million
00:04:20.580 guns, including assault rifles in in the general public. And then you're then you're keeping them from
00:04:28.280 getting vaccinated like they should be. You're creating probably the most dangerous era for children's health in
00:04:36.040 more than a century. And it's absolutely shocking, Michael. And I, you know, somebody is going to do something
00:04:43.040 about this. But I really think it's going to boil down to a focus on Republican senators and them putting pressure on the
00:04:51.860 administration to start with getting rid of Bobby Kennedy. National Guard soldiers and masked federal law enforcement
00:04:58.240 officers were mobilized a thousand miles away, roaming Washington, D.C. in search of a violent crime wave that
00:05:04.020 just doesn't exist. On orders from a president who claims that he now runs that nation's capital, that he runs
00:05:10.220 the whole country, that he has a right to do whatever he wants because he's president. President who in recent
00:05:15.020 days has mused openly about being a dictator, says in starkly racist language, he would love to send his troops into
00:05:21.320 Chicago, New York and more American cities next. It is a dark timeline out there, people. I don't I don't have to tell you
00:05:29.160 that. I've seen something like this at this agency. Remember that this is not a an agency that deals with
00:05:36.780 widgets. This is an agency that deals with health and life. And when the CDC doesn't get it right,
00:05:44.880 a lot of people die. A lot of people die. And when you lose your your brain talent, a lot of people are
00:05:51.660 going to die. I don't know how else to put it. I know the three people who have now resigned. They were
00:05:57.440 all essential during the COVID fight. Dr. Daskaloskas was that point person on Mpox, monkeypox.
00:06:07.760 Deb Hury would constantly be providing us with great guidance on where we needed to go on so many different
00:06:13.160 issues involving disease. You just don't get rid of people like that and say you're going to replace
00:06:17.160 them. It's I don't get it. It doesn't make sense. And America is going to feel the pain when you seize
00:06:23.200 the institutions. Let's seize them. This is what the left. This is why the country is in such a bad
00:06:28.900 shape. This is why the Republican Party for years has been the controlled opposition. This rot in our
00:06:35.140 institution. You think it just occurred overnight? Decade after decade after decade, tapping it along.
00:06:42.400 There's nowhere where that's more relevant than getting to make your own decisions or letting
00:06:47.780 someone else. And Donald Trump wants to keep making your decisions for you. And you mentioned it with
00:06:51.780 gerrymandering, Nicole, but it goes beyond that. We just got news that they've installed a head of
00:06:56.660 election security at DHS who's going to use the powers of DHS to try to rig the 2026 election in
00:07:03.180 Donald Trump's favor. He wants to keep making your decisions for you. And we know what Republicans
00:07:08.700 would call this if it was happening to them. In the party I came from, if troops were deployed
00:07:13.600 on their streets, if their vote was being taken away from them, they would call it civil war.
00:07:19.000 That's how serious they would treat it. Now, we shouldn't say that in response. We don't want
00:07:24.080 an armed response to Donald Trump's takeover, but we need to treat it with that level of seriousness
00:07:29.240 because that's what Republicans would call it. The presidential revenge campaign has gone to
00:07:34.140 places this country has never seen before. And we need to mount a nonviolent response
00:07:38.820 that's never been seen before.
00:07:43.240 This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on
00:07:51.500 these people. I got a free shot. All these networks lying about the people. The people have had a
00:07:58.340 belly full of it. I know you don't like hearing that. I know you try to do everything in the world
00:08:02.140 but you're not going to stop it. It's going to happen. And where do people like that go
00:08:06.160 to share the big line? Mega media. I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a
00:08:13.860 conscience. Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose? If that answer is to save my country,
00:08:22.000 this country will be saved. War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Band.
00:08:32.140 So there is a 28 August in the year of our Lord, 2025. So many fronts, so much progress we're making
00:08:44.020 in really taking control of this country and trying to save it from these demonic progressives,
00:08:53.080 Marxists, jihadists, the whole dog's breakfast of people that hate America. Obviously, they hate the
00:09:00.100 mega movement and they hate President Trump. First order of business. Here's what we're going to do.
00:09:04.580 We're going to get to the CDC, the trucker situation. We're going to get to that. Ukraine,
00:09:09.800 the Russians last night, ballistic missile attack, drone attack, just absolutely pounding
00:09:15.360 the capital city of Kiev. Thayer's going to be on later. We're also going to talk about the battle
00:09:19.860 group that's down in or the amphibious assault group that's down or heading to the Caribbean
00:09:24.680 with some Navy escorts, get some destroyers down there. But what's happening in Central
00:09:29.760 America, the cartel wars are coming to Mexico, Central America, maybe even Venezuela. But
00:09:35.000 we've got to start with this shooting yesterday. And the reason is we curated and went through
00:09:41.060 everything. And I personally watched all of MSNBC last night and CNN. We did it kind of on
00:09:48.480 the thing so I could find it. And not one time in all those shows did they ever talk about
00:09:54.740 the shooter, the transgender ideology, his dudes, because he is a man, right? His whatever
00:10:05.380 transition he's going through, the psychological issues, demonic. So we've got Brandon Showalter
00:10:10.760 on. Joe Allen is actually in the war room. John Lott's going to join us. I want to start
00:10:15.860 with Sheila Matthews. Sheila, you have made this case now for you. And it's so obvious
00:10:20.580 that you, ma'am, are onto something big that they want to hide because they go through.
00:10:26.080 And you said something to me yesterday, just in the middle of when this first came out,
00:10:29.920 that when they have these press conferences or they're seeing the armored vehicles going
00:10:34.060 around the neighborhood and you have the 5,000 cops show up and SWAT teams after the fact,
00:10:38.920 that these things are made to confuse you. And the media, when you look at it that way,
00:10:43.520 it's absolutely correct. It's to take the spotlight off the thing itself and to put it
00:10:48.900 on all these sideshows. And then they perfect it later in the evening when they get their major host
00:10:54.900 on. But we can't do this anymore. This has to stop because this is an epidemic or a pandemic.
00:11:03.500 And it's not about guns and it's not about AR-15s. It's none of that. We have a massive
00:11:09.580 problem in this country. And of course, today, between Brandon Schultz or Stephen K. Bannon
00:11:14.700 and Joe Allen and you, we have different angles of attack on that. But I think it still gets back
00:11:20.360 to the railhead. Explain to us yesterday what happened and how this fits into your theory of
00:11:26.860 the case of what we're dealing with here, ma'am. Sure. Thanks, Steve, for having Able Child on again.
00:11:33.100 We've been working on mass killings for over 12 years, longer than before Sandy Hook.
00:11:40.900 And basically what happened yesterday was you have a massive crime scene. You have a ballistics
00:11:47.940 nightmare because of the three guns that were being used. So we have to make sure that that
00:11:53.000 is collected properly. You have a dead body, a suicide victim after committing to homicide. So
00:12:03.280 you have a crime scene. And so this is what tells us the facts. And Able Child over the years have been
00:12:11.380 pointing out that the common factor is that the mental health records are suppressed, that the
00:12:19.400 psychiatric industry is completely let off the hook. And the family members are often shielded by these
00:12:28.480 mental health providers that scoop in and are sent directly into the crime scene when they are
00:12:37.140 participants in the lead up often to these mass killings. So we have a very confused situation. We have
00:12:44.740 a mayor who really is a drama king that is pinning communities against each other. And in the meanwhile,
00:12:53.000 we have valuable evidence that needs to be collected. And we're not doing that. And the past history of
00:13:01.420 these mass killings have this one thing in common, corrupted crime scenes, withholding of mental health
00:13:09.880 records. So we have to look at the facts. We can't get emotional about this. I mean, the families are already
00:13:15.900 emotional. Having people come in and do these drama proclamations of it's about gun control. It's about getting
00:13:26.820 more mental health. This is the problem because then we lose sight of the legislation that needs to happen in the
00:13:36.240 aftermath of these mass killings, Steve.
00:13:40.960 Okay, hang on for one second. Hang on one second. We're gonna, um, Sheila's gonna be with us. We've got Brandon
00:13:47.560 Shaw Walter. It's done more than any individual in this country to lead the fight against this radical
00:13:52.160 transgender ideology. We've got Joe Allen, who's also, I think, spent the last 10 or 15 years of his life
00:13:58.780 studying the situation. John Lott, uh, who's done such an amazing job. And he's here to talk about this
00:14:04.580 killing. He's also here to give us some guidance on what's happening in DC and how it's going to roll out
00:14:08.800 throughout the country. Um, we have a crisis with these, um, with these young men, I think now and some young
00:14:16.100 women, but it's got to be dealt with. We need to find out exactly what's going on with these mental health, mental
00:14:22.800 health professionals, what is happening, what is being advocated, what drugs are being given. That's your problem.
00:14:29.700 You get to the bottom of that, you're gonna solve a lot of this. And all this yesterday, she's,
00:14:34.580 Sheila's absolutely correct. The mayor was a disgrace. Absolute disgrace. He's a drama queen
00:14:39.760 running around and, and, and there, and Walt's the governor. What a clown. Think about it. That guy
00:14:44.480 was almost vice president of the United States. Think about that. Think about a party that would put
00:14:48.080 that guy up to be a vice president of the United States. Meditate on that for a moment. Short commercial
00:14:55.000 break. We'll be back in the world. Just a moment. This July, there is a global summit of BRICS nations
00:15:03.120 in Rio de Janeiro. The block of emerging superpowers, including China, Russia, India, and Persia are
00:15:10.600 meeting with the goal of displacing the United States dollar as the global currency. They're calling
00:15:16.520 this the Rio reset. As BRICS nations push forward with their plans, global demand for U.S. dollars will
00:15:22.960 decrease, bringing down the value of the dollar in your savings. While this transition won't not
00:15:28.800 happen overnight, but trust me, it's going to start in Rio. The Rio reset in July marks a pivotal moment
00:15:36.360 when BRICS objectives move decisively from a theoretical possibility towards an inevitable reality.

00:16:56.880 Swing. Um, here's my, um, note to my family. The video also shows written statements and several
00:17:04.960 guns painted with slurs. In another clip, the speaker simply reads aloud from a clothes dryer
00:17:10.260 manual. Dryer safety. Your safety and the safety of others are very important. Police say they also
00:17:17.160 found a litany of writings. We're also aware of a manifesto that the shooter had timed to be
00:17:23.160 released on YouTube. This manifesto appeared to show him at the scene and included some disturbing
00:17:30.340 writings. That content has since been taken down with the assistance of the FBI, and it now remains
00:17:38.120 under active review by our investigators. Apparently part of the plan that the shooter seemed to illustrate
00:17:43.220 in those same videos on YouTube, a photo of a slab of wood. An actual slab of wood was found at the
00:17:49.700 scene blocking a door from the outside. This will be for the emergency exit.
00:17:56.140 Pop it through the hand. According to social media posts, the shooter's mother worked at the school
00:18:01.940 from 2016 to 2021, and the shooter graduated from the school in 2017. The shooter, now known as 23-year-old
00:18:10.240 Robin Westman, identified as a female and changed their name legally to Robin from Robert in 2020.
00:18:16.480 Well, he's Robert to us, okay? You've got to stop this madness about going along with it. If you're
00:18:28.540 going to go along with it, then you're just adding to the madness. Sheila, I want to go back to your
00:18:32.640 theory of the case once again about the psychiatrist, the drugs, the handling of this, because all we get
00:18:38.280 bombarded with is mental health and mental health professionals when they are part of the problem,
00:18:43.580 if not the problem. Man, why is it hidden from us? And I do want to thank the authorities.
00:18:48.900 Instead of having Michael Patrick Leahy still fight in court to try to get years after the case to try
00:18:54.440 to get the manifesto of the last transgender person that shot up a bunch of tiny children, right? At
00:19:02.660 least they started, they put out the manifesto and other aspects of this yesterday. But what's your
00:19:07.320 theory of the case here dealing with psychiatrists, the big pharma, and the mental health professional
00:19:13.460 community, ma'am? Well, I believe that they're hiding behind the HIPAA laws. So HIPAA is supposed to
00:19:21.660 protect children like this little boy. If you look at his little picture of that little boy,
00:19:27.920 the parents sought mental help because they obviously embraced his transition. So the HIPAA laws
00:19:36.520 are to protect the consumer, not to protect the treating psychiatrist. So all this transgender and
00:19:44.740 this psychiatric intervention has to be exposed because we have to make sure that there's not
00:19:51.880 psychiatric abuse of these children going on within the treatment, which we clearly see throughout these
00:19:58.920 mass killings of children on a cocktail of drugs like Adam Lanza, who was drugged all the way up through on a
00:20:07.120 cocktail of drugs. And these drugs have never been tested before in humans. This is all drug experiment. So HIPAA is
00:20:15.700 not there to protect the psychiatrist. The FBI and the police are not there to protect the contracts that the
00:20:25.200 government has with these vendors. It is to protect the mental health consumer who is going for mental
00:20:32.640 health treatment. So that's why it's important to open these records up. It's the humane thing to do.
00:20:39.880 In this country today, we do not have human rights in mental health. This is forced treatment. And it is
00:20:47.540 evident throughout the mass killings throughout this country, because a lot of these killers have been
00:20:54.260 mandated onto psychiatric drugs by courts. We have a separate mental health court. So we have an industry
00:21:02.000 that has set up shop within our government, and they refuse to give us any information. They're also
00:21:09.260 the same industry, by the way, Steve, that collects their own data. So they collect the data on how many
00:21:18.180 kids are on these psych drugs, but they will not release it to the public, which is a crime against
00:21:24.640 humanity. This is a human rights crisis in mental health. This is over drugging. This is drug repeat
00:21:32.760 diagnosed with these fraudulent labels that are ever expanding with no signs behind them, and then
00:21:39.800 drugging them on a cocktail of drugs. Our organization has been working on this, and we're happy
00:21:45.920 to work with any lawmaker, but the lawmakers are part of the problem. They're covering up for these
00:21:52.480 massive mental health contracts.
00:21:57.200 Hang on for a second, Sheila. I'm going to go to Brandon Showalter. Brandon, Cat Turd has got up a post.
00:22:03.500 I reposted on Getter. It's got like eight or ten of these with Nashville, et cetera. I don't know if in a row,
00:22:10.000 but pretty close to being in a row of this coming from people undergoing this transgender ideology,
00:22:18.080 these people going through transitions. What's happening here? You've been the guy at the tip of
00:22:21.860 the spear of this. And this one's particularly demonic and vicious. This guy had a very sophisticated
00:22:29.160 way how he was going to block the school and basically shoot up all these little kids while
00:22:33.360 they're at mass. So this is a completely, this is a, on one level, a very, uh, a guy who's really
00:22:39.820 thinking through how he's going to commit mass slaughter, sir. Yes, Steve. And my heart again
00:22:46.920 goes out to all the families who are enduring these, uh, excruciating losses and all the suffering
00:22:51.760 victims. Uh, I don't know what it's going to take. I mean, dead children praying, maybe that we
00:22:58.220 finally reckon with the absolute poison that is gender ideology. And you, you have, you're correct
00:23:04.900 that there have been a series of these shootings where the shooter, uh, has been a very gender
00:23:10.140 confused person. And, you know, it's, you, we just can't see this and not notice the contributing
00:23:17.620 factor that this is, because if you're going to tell a lie to a child that he's born in the wrong body,
00:23:23.720 it's going to drive them crazy. Now, can I make the connective loop between this action of meticulous
00:23:29.840 planning of a massacre and, uh, this, this gender confusion? Well, no, I don't want to make the
00:23:36.380 correlation causation fallacy, but it's a trend. As, as you mentioned there, there have been a number
00:23:41.560 of shootings and I just, I can only just imagine just what this does to a child's psychology when
00:23:47.340 you lie to them about something so basic about their bodies and then you drug them and maybe cut
00:23:52.280 them. I mean, we don't know the full scope of the treatment of this latest shooter, but clearly he
00:23:56.180 was a disturbed and confused individual. But what I'd like to point out, Steve, is that this goes all
00:24:01.680 the way to the top. Yesterday, when I was on your show, I pointed out how Mayor Fry pointed out that
00:24:06.080 we need to not, you know, hate the trans community in the wake of this. And I'm like, on what, in what
00:24:12.120 universe does, are you going to try and protect somebody who's like, this, this, a guy carries out a,
00:24:19.120 a murder, murder of children. And then you're rushing to defend, uh, the group of which he's
00:24:25.180 a part of, like, I don't understand how in the world that's like your first, you know, that this
00:24:30.180 just goes to show the demonic nature of it. And even this morning, the New York times, this is the
00:24:34.700 headline, Minneapolis suspect knew her target, her target, but motive is a mystery. That's how deep
00:24:42.760 the lies goes. Our elite media, our political leaders, especially on the left are completely
00:24:47.740 consumed with these lies such that they cap, they're just completely captured by all of this
00:24:52.460 stuff. And they're rushing to defend. Even as you see a video where this guy has a Jesus head
00:24:58.040 on a target and he's listing about how much he hates Christians and Jews. I mean, it's like
00:25:02.280 the motive is a mystery. Are you kidding me? I mean, the demonic face of this could not be more
00:25:07.260 apparent. Okay. I need Grace and Moe if you get, we've got, they've got the video up. He's giggling.
00:25:14.540 He's laughing when he's talking about his victims. He's, they've got so many different parts of the
00:25:20.540 video. Then you've got the written part of it too. A cat turd put this up. Denver shooter, trans,
00:25:29.940 Aberdeen shooter, trans, Nashville shooter, trans, Georgia shooter, trans, Philadelphia shooter, trans,
00:25:36.600 Iowa shooter, gender fluid, Evaldi shooter, trans, Colorado shooter, trans, Minnesota shooter, trans.
00:25:43.460 Gosh, I think I see some pattern recognition and it gets back to Sheila's thing. This is also about
00:25:48.900 the psychiatry people that are treating, quote unquote, treating these people. What drugs are
00:25:53.460 they given? What are they doing? What are their mental health records? This is obvious what's going
00:25:58.500 on. And now, and yesterday could have been a hundred times worse, right? Except for some heroic action
00:26:05.420 by the folks and particularly some of the little kids inside to do some protection. Hang on for a second,
00:26:11.640 Brandon. I want to bring in Joe Allen. Joe, you've also been at this. You've also been at this for a
00:26:18.360 while. I know you come at this from a slightly different angle of attack. How long have you
00:26:22.860 been studying mass killings, Joe Allen? I did my first in-depth research on mass killings in 1998
00:26:30.280 using court documents from the Lily Lid murders in Green County, Tennessee. And I lost my taste for
00:26:38.440 it in 2015 after the Charleston shooting by Dylan Roof. I spent way more time on this than any normal
00:26:46.760 human being should.
00:26:50.520 The New York Post has a cover, if we can get that up. And by the way, we're going to go to break and
00:26:55.020 bring everybody back saying this is demonic, that this guy was part of a satanic cult,
00:27:02.240 that this is very much a work, direct work of Satan through this guy, through his body as an
00:27:09.520 instrument. Your thoughts, sir?
00:27:12.960 In the short time we have, I have to say that that's probably the most accurate headline that
00:27:18.700 we're going to see. But as we go into it, I think looking at this from a historical perspective
00:27:24.420 is not going to be very politically useful.
00:27:28.120 Okay. We'll drill down on that. We also have John Lott with us. Sheila Matthews from Able Child.
00:27:37.200 Brandon Showalter has been at the tip of the spear of fighting this scourge. Transgender ideology
00:27:44.640 is a scourge. And people have made money off this. It's the worst blood money you can have.
00:27:51.460 Absolutely disgusting. New York Times headline, motive unclear.
00:27:54.880 Yo, dude, watch the video. Read his manifesto. And thank God for the authorities for putting it out
00:28:03.860 that we didn't have to go to court and fight for two years because they don't want the truth out
00:28:08.120 whatsoever. Short commercial break. Return of the war in just a moment.
00:28:12.340 According to the Department of Energy, blackouts could increase by 10,000 percent over the next few
00:28:31.960 years. It's because of massive energy demand from artificial intelligence data centers. We talk about
00:28:37.660 that all the time here in the war room. And we have a fragile power grid. It just cannot keep
00:28:42.940 up with that demand. I don't know about you, but I don't like the idea of being without power even
00:28:47.980 for a day. That's why I got the grid doctor 3,300 from my patron supply. It's a powerful solar
00:28:54.860 generator that runs refrigerators, AC units, medical devices, power tools, anything you need to write out
00:29:01.440 a blackout. And right now for their Christmas in July event, they're including over $1,000 in free
00:29:08.360 survival gear with your generator, including emergency food supply, water filtration, survival
00:29:14.800 twos and more. You heard that right. Over a thousand bucks in free gear for a limited time. Head to
00:29:21.400 mypatriotsupply.com slash Bannon. That's mypatriotsupply.com slash Bannon and grab the Christmas in July
00:29:28.520 bundle before it's gone. Blackouts are coming. Go to mypatriotsupply.com slash Bannon and get prepared
00:29:36.200 today. Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. Tell Joe to hang around. Okay, let me bring in John Lott.
00:29:45.800 John, you do this for a living professionally. Give me your assessment of yesterday and particularly
00:29:51.940 the misdirection play. You get to watch television all day, read the New York Times. They never really
00:29:56.300 get to the heart of the matter. And they do this on purpose. They're there to confuse you. And then
00:30:01.520 you have all the, you know, all the armored cars show up. What really ticks me off is when you get
00:30:06.720 there and you got 5,000 SWAT guys and they're all walking around up armored and you got, you know,
00:30:11.240 you got the half tracks there and the Humvees with 50 caliber machine guns, everything after that. But
00:30:16.900 we don't get to the part that you need to get to solve this, which is this, which is the psychiatrist,
00:30:23.160 this mental health. And now we got the transgenders on a, uh, on a raid shooting. Uh, it's, it's deeper
00:30:29.760 than that. You've also got these other kids. They misdiagnose what as a professional that does this
00:30:35.380 for a living, what's your assessment of yesterday? And, and what does this tell us?
00:30:41.800 Well, I mean, I agree with you that there's a real mental health issue here and particularly with
00:30:47.540 regard to these transgenders. I mean, they are massively compared to their share of the
00:30:52.780 population engaged in these types of actions about seven times more than their share of the
00:30:57.560 population. But, you know, you mentioned the misinformation in the media. There's, I have
00:31:03.340 lots of pet peeves, but one of the main ones is these diaries and manifestos, not just for the
00:31:09.320 murderer yesterday, but time after time, after time, explain why they pick the targets that they do.
00:31:16.720 To me, that seems like a very newsworthy piece of information, but yet you will never see the media
00:31:22.560 go through and quote or, or mention that they pick these targets because they want to go to a place
00:31:31.640 where their victims can't defend themselves. This manifesto that came out, uh, explicitly explains
00:31:40.220 that he wants to go to a place where victims aren't able to defend themselves. He calls them what they
00:31:46.520 are, gun-free zones. And he says that he wants to do that because it will make it easier for him to
00:31:52.860 kill more people. And, you know, whether it be the Nashville Covenant school shooter, or whether it be
00:31:59.380 the Buffalo grocery store guy, or going all the way back to Columbine, you see similar types of statements
00:32:07.120 that are there. And so, and, you know, and it's extremely explicit, but yet the media says, well,
00:32:14.420 you know, we don't know why he picked the target that he did. Uh, we know his mom worked at the
00:32:19.440 school and they try to draw connections like that. But, you know, I just don't understand why they
00:32:26.780 refuse. They just absolutely, nowhere in the media. I tried doing news searches last night.
00:32:32.200 And even though it's clear as day in his, uh, in his manifesto that he had there, that he picked it
00:32:40.220 because it was a gun-free zone, um, they, they refused to do that. My guess is the whole gun control
00:32:46.780 debate that we have right now would be dramatically different if even once in a while the media would
00:32:53.080 say why they picked the target, because they wanted to go to a place, a soft target, where they knew their
00:32:59.020 victims couldn't defend themselves. And once in a while mentioned, we've had yet another mass public
00:33:05.120 shooting where civilians were banned from being able to go and have guns. These guys may be crazy,
00:33:10.820 but they're not stupid. Their goal is to get media coverage. And they clearly know the more people they
00:33:16.580 kill or harm, the more media coverage that they're going to get. And they know if they go to a place
00:33:22.200 where their victims can't defend themselves, they're going to be able to go and kill more people
00:33:26.700 and get more media coverage.
00:33:31.800 The, the, the reason that the, the media is not going to cover that is the purpose of the media.
00:33:36.340 And you see for these ridiculous, every night these happen, this is all about trying to make some case
00:33:41.700 to take weapons away from, from citizens. They want to, they want it. They, it's, it's so obvious.
00:33:48.640 It's, it's so obvious. It's, it's almost stupid, right? They were relentless. I want to go back.
00:33:54.500 If you go to these manifestos and I really want to thank the, the, the authorities. I'm sure this
00:33:59.500 is all coming because now you got Cash Patel running the FBI and Pam Bondi at, uh, as a attorney
00:34:04.920 general, putting the pressure on them that the manifesto was released right away. They're still
00:34:08.480 fighting to get the entire manifesto at a Nashville, what, over two years afterwards,
00:34:13.040 these manifestos are pretty detailed. I mean, and they, they, they talk about their rage.
00:34:18.320 They talk about their hate. They talk about the people that do hate and they talk about
00:34:24.140 why they were targeted. Right? So why isn't this connected together as a body of evidence
00:34:28.660 to show that about the mental health and particularly these transgenders now are getting even more
00:34:34.240 in, don't get me wrong. The whole thing is, is, is horrible, but the psychiatric treatment,
00:34:40.320 the misdiagnosis, big pharma, putting these kids under, under drugs, uh, the psychiatrist never
00:34:45.860 being held accountable because they're an accessory to this. They are accessories. Big pharma is an
00:34:51.440 accessory. And in certain situations, the parents are accessories before the fact, but why do they,
00:34:58.380 all the information's right there in the manifestos. Why did they refuse to let these manifestos out
00:35:03.980 unless connect dots, sir? Right. Well, you know, uh, a little bit more than half of the mass public
00:35:11.480 shooters over the last 25 years have been seeing mental health care experts prior to engaging in
00:35:19.220 the attack. And one of the amazing, this is not in one, not one single case did the mental health
00:35:26.780 care experts identify any of those individuals as a danger to themselves or others. You know, part of
00:35:33.660 the problem is the way mental health is set up, that they're used to people. Their model is people
00:35:41.300 who are troubled come to them for help. And so they basically assume that whatever the person tells
00:35:47.140 them is accurate. When you read through these diaries and manifestos, you're usually doing with
00:35:52.800 fairly smart people, but even just a basic level of intelligence, they realize that it's crazy for them
00:35:59.500 to go and tell somebody, I'm going to go and shoot somebody up. You know, you have cases like the
00:36:03.980 Buffalo mass murderer at the grocery store. Uh, he had been in high school, uh, at the end of high
00:36:10.360 school, uh, year, a teacher had asked him what he was planning on doing over the summer. He said,
00:36:16.240 I'm going to go and find a school that has summer classes and shoot it up and kill lots of people
00:36:22.380 and then go and commit suicide. Obviously the teacher was alarmed. She went and told the proper
00:36:28.700 authorities about it. Uh, he ended up being assigned to go and see two mental health care
00:36:34.660 professionals. And what he told them was, look, it was a stupid joke. I shouldn't have said it.
00:36:40.840 Uh, I'm sorry. Uh, I won't do it again. And, uh, the mental health care professionals basically
00:36:47.120 just took him at his word. You look at somebody like the Santa Barbara mass murderer. Uh, he was
00:36:53.120 actually seeing three mental health care professionals. One of them, the head of child
00:36:58.940 psychiatric services at Los Angeles Children's Hospital, one of the leading experts on child
00:37:05.080 violence in the world. And he writes in his diaries there about how easy it is to fool the person
00:37:12.120 because all he has to do is just say, when he's asked if he's thinking about doing anything violent,
00:37:17.460 he says, of course not. I have nothing to do with that. I'm not going to, I have no desire to do
00:37:22.140 anything. And the mental health care experts would just basically take him at his word that that's
00:37:28.600 what he wanted to do. So unless they want to get caught, unless they want to be stopped from doing
00:37:35.220 these types of things, uh, you know, you're not going to, the way the mental health care
00:37:39.960 profession is set up, you're not, you're not going to stop them. You're not going to catch them.
00:37:44.380 And it's, you know, it's scary. I forced myself to go and read through diary or manifesto one after
00:37:52.320 another. You know, one of the things also that the media does in order to cover these things up
00:37:58.280 is, you know, they want to make it sound like this is a white supremacy type thing. You know,
00:38:04.260 if you look at the motives for these killers, about 75% of the time, they have no political motive.
00:38:11.180 Uh, they're just individuals who are just purely suicidal, uh, and they want to get media attention.
00:38:18.060 People have always wanted to go and commit suicide, but someplace along the line, people realize that
00:38:25.100 they could get worldwide media attention by killing lots of people. And that, as they would say,
00:38:31.180 if I can only kill more people than such and such did, I can get more media attention. Or they'll say,
00:38:36.920 um, get my name in the history books and it, and people don't appreciate me, but at least they'll
00:38:42.440 appreciate me now and know that I was here. And, and so if you want to stop these things,
00:38:50.280 I'm not going insane, getting rid of the first amendment and rewriting it somehow. I'm not even
00:38:55.100 sure how you would do that. But what you have to do is take away their ability to go and get that
00:39:01.360 attention. And the way you do that is by making it so somebody there is able to quickly respond
00:39:08.340 to go and stop them. Look, we have over 10,000 schools in the United States that have armed
00:39:14.420 teachers and staff. We've had many of them for, for decades. There has not been one single attack
00:39:21.720 at any school that allows armed teachers and staff where anybody's been killed or wounded.
00:39:27.800 All the attacks occur at other places. Now, one difference I have with many conservatives is
00:39:35.020 they want to have armed uniformed police officers in schools. And the problem that you have is that
00:39:41.960 these attackers have real tactical advantages. If they see somebody in uniform, they can either wait
00:39:49.600 for that person to leave, maybe go to another building before they attack, or they can move on to
00:39:54.620 another target themselves. Or if they're going to attack, who do you think they take out first?
00:39:59.880 If they're going to go there, they're going to take out the one person in uniform, the one person
00:40:04.680 that they know who has a gun. You know, one way to think about this is we have air marshals on planes.
00:40:11.760 Does anybody think air marshals ought to be in uniform? Do you think that would be useful?
00:40:17.140 We would never do that. Because if there is a terrorist on a plane,
00:40:20.640 and you have the one air marshal there on the plane in uniform, you're giving the terrorist a
00:40:26.940 real advantage to know who it is he has to take out first. And so the same thing is true with
00:40:34.000 officers. If you're going to have a police officer at the school, then please don't have them in
00:40:40.320 uniform. Make them a staff person, a PE coach or something, so they blend in. But rather than having
00:40:47.040 signs in front of schools that say these schools are gun-free zones, please put a sign in front of
00:40:52.780 the school that says, warn it. Select teachers and staff are carrying concealed, and we'll use these
00:40:58.840 guns to protect the students and others there. You know, outside of California and New York,
00:41:03.760 we're talking about about 10 percent of the adult population in the country with a concealed carry
00:41:08.860 permit. You can go to a mall, you can go to a grocery store, you can go to a restaurant,
00:41:14.120 and there's very likely somebody nearby you who has a gun, but you would never know. And the same
00:41:21.520 thing is true with these terrorists. They won't know if there's a teacher behind them or to the side
00:41:27.320 who might be able to go and stop them. And that deters them from going in it. Just read the diaries.
00:41:35.440 Read the diary or manifesto that came out yesterday where the person explicitly, and they do this over and
00:41:42.480 over again, explain why they picked the targets that they do. The media doesn't have to guess as
00:41:49.100 they're doing in this case here. Just read it and just report it. But you will, I did news searches
00:41:56.260 last night. You will not find one single news outlet, not Fox, not any place, surely not the New York
00:42:05.660 Times and Washington Post and places like that, which will go and have a news article on how they
00:42:12.760 pick the target that they do. I've, for years, I've talked to editors at different news bureaus and I
00:42:18.900 say, look, we've had yet another mass public shooting at a place where guns are banned. Can't
00:42:26.040 we mention that? You mentioned the type of gun you use. You mentioned how you think the person got the
00:42:31.420 gun. Many times the initial news reports are wrong on those things. This is something easy to check.
00:42:37.160 And they say, okay, John, if you can get back to me quickly within the news cycle, and I would do that
00:42:42.660 for years. But what would happen is, is that when I did get back to them, I said, well, it would be
00:42:49.540 political if we included that. And my response is saying that they picked a place where people were
00:42:57.120 banned from having guns. Is that more or less political than you going and calling it an assault
00:43:02.020 weapon or going or going and guessing how they, you think they got ahold of the gun? You know,
00:43:11.060 they have all these laws that they want to pass. Yeah. Yeah. But you know, like, hang on one second.
00:43:16.860 We're gonna take a short commercial break. Just hang on a second. Got it. John Lott, Joe Allen,

00:45:28.800 get it in about the Federal Reserve, the governor of the Federal Reserve, President Trump now saying,
00:45:32.540 you've got to go. There's going to be a clash of all of this, I think, on some pretty big
00:45:38.440 constitutional issues of President Trump's Article II powers. And I would say the unconstitutional
00:45:45.900 way that the Federal Reserve is set up. Yo, that's why this fight's so big. Anyway,
00:45:51.000 Birchgold.com. Understand what central banks, what they mean in the economy, what they do,
00:45:57.640 what being the Prime Reserve currency means. You can go to Birchgold.com slash Bannon,
00:46:02.280 the end of the dollar empire. All the information's free. Get it today. Get up the learning curve.
00:46:07.280 President Trump just went out with a, which I'm going to get a lot back on here in a minute.
00:46:11.360 President Trump just went up three minutes ago. Governor Pritzker had six murders in Chicago
00:46:17.460 this weekend. Twenty people were shot, but he doesn't want to ask me for help. Can this be
00:46:21.800 possible? The people are desperate for me to stop the crime, something the Democrats aren't capable
00:46:27.360 of doing. Stay tuned, President DJT. I think the template seeing work in the nation's capital is
00:46:37.620 coming to the Windy City. I'll get into that with John a lot in a moment. Also, CDC, we got so much
00:46:42.340 to do. Joe Allen, you're going to be back at six to go in this more depth because you've studied this
00:46:49.620 quite thoroughly. It also ties together with a lot of the stuff about transhumanism. You're going to
00:46:55.420 connect some dots this afternoon, but give me your best two minutes right now, sir.
00:46:58.760 Well, Steve, it is an absolute scandal that the media has refused by and large to show the manifesto
00:47:07.800 to highlight the transgender identity of the shooter or really delve into the motive as stated
00:47:14.740 in the manifesto. And you can see in the writings in the clip, everything from kick the spic to six
00:47:20.040 million wasn't enough to kill Donald Trump, a schizo sort of motive. But if you look at the motives,
00:47:27.220 they do emphasize such as the motives of Dylan Roof in Charleston, South Carolina, 2015 white
00:47:34.700 nationalism. If you look at the motive of Anders Breivik in Norway, mass immigration was his issue.
00:47:42.440 He wanted to kill off all the immigrants and spark the movement to kill the liberals. But you also have
00:47:48.140 some exceptions to the rule. You have Cho, the Asian Virginia Tech shooter in 2007, who killed on the
00:47:57.980 basis of social justice warrior ideology. You have the black shooters in 2013, Christopher Dorner and
00:48:05.640 Aaron Alexis, one a cop and the other, I believe, a soldier shooting up the Navy Yard just south of here
00:48:11.740 in the Washington, D.C. Navy Yard. So you have this wide array of ideologies. I think the trans
00:48:19.380 ideology is important, but a shooting that happened in my own hometown 2008 at the Unitarian Universalist
00:48:26.160 Church was conducted by a guy who was amped up on Michael Savage, Bill O'Reilly and Sean Hannity. So I
00:48:33.100 think that the ideological angle is important, but I think that to show this in the light of it's because
00:48:39.600 of trans is grossly inaccurate.
00:48:44.780 Okay, fine. We'll get more clarity because that was clear as mud. We'll get more clarity from you at six o'clock.
00:48:51.840 Joe, stick around again. I need you. I need you as a camera operator in the war room trying to get Michael
00:48:56.420 Caputo there. Brandon Showalter, I know you disagree. This is what this show is about. What do you got for us?
00:49:03.140 Well, I wouldn't want to, again, I wouldn't want to make any sort of correlation, causation, fallacy, or conclusive
00:49:07.940 proof. But I can't help but notice that this episode, Steve, crystallizes just how dark and
00:49:14.580 diabolical transgender ideology is. It's, you know, it leads nowhere good. We are doing a massive
00:49:20.920 disservice lying to young people about something as basic as their bodies. And if you read that guy,
00:49:26.860 you watch that video, if you can stomach to see his manifesto, the demonic nature of it is readily
00:49:32.060 apparent. And what this shows also is just how far this has captured the tops of our society,
00:49:36.940 particularly the mass media and the Democratic Party as a whole. It leads nowhere good. When we
00:49:43.020 lied to children about the basics of their bodies, they are going crazy. And so again, I'm not going
00:49:47.440 to say this is the direct cause of this massacre, but it sure doesn't help. And I'll just leave it
00:49:52.420 there. Yeah, Grace, Grace and Ma need to bundle and make sure everybody this weekend, folks, you've got
00:49:58.960 to watch the videos and you've got to read this guy's writing. You need to see the manifestos out. You need
00:50:03.400 to see it. Brandon, you did such an extraordinary job and all that. What's your social media, Brandon?
00:50:07.700 Where do people go to follow all the great work you've done to combat this quite dangerous ideology,
00:50:13.280 sir? I'm on X at Brandon M show. And I would point everyone to our latest episode of our documentary
00:50:20.720 podcast series called Generation Indoctrination. We highlight the siblings and this transgender
00:50:26.800 ideology rips apart families. And this new, very original shoe leather reporting episode is about the
00:50:32.540 siblings who have watched their brothers and sisters collapse into this confusion. It's a
00:50:36.320 heart-rending episode and you can hear it at generationindoctrination.com or wherever you get
00:50:41.400 your podcasts on all major platforms. Thank you, sir. Sheila Matthews, you got two minutes. Walk us
00:50:49.840 through what needs to be done. You've been hammering this. You've been dead right on this from the
00:50:53.620 beginning. What is Able Child saying needs to be done immediately, ma'am? Well, we need to open up the
00:50:59.900 mental health records. We need to really discuss the fraud of the diagnosing of the labels. There's
00:51:06.420 no science behind it and the relationship between the government. As of yesterday, Pam Bondi announced
00:51:14.700 going into Labor Day that children should be aware of fentanyl and to be wary of the pills that they take.
00:51:22.720 She defended Adderall and Xanax as being okay to take. And I think we need to have a conversation
00:51:30.940 about the prescription drugs that are given out to one in four Americans. And that's one. These
00:51:36.920 children are on a cocktail of drugs. This is inhumane. This is a human rights issue. This is not a
00:51:43.040 political issue. This is about getting to the evidence. And we need to do that through opening the
00:51:49.480 records and educating the public on the relationship that the government has with endorsing psychiatric
00:51:56.880 treatments for our children in schools. We have an abundance of mental health. We are in a crisis
00:52:03.660 financially. And we have to look at the billions of dollars spent on these fraudulent labels and these
00:52:10.380 dangerous mind-altering drugs.
00:52:13.200 And Able Child...
00:52:14.320 Sheila, real quickly, where do people go to get you?
00:52:18.540 They come to ablechild.org. Our board member, Kelly O'Mara, has a book out called Still Psyched
00:52:26.240 Out. We recommend you read it.
00:52:30.200 Ma'am, great. Thank you for doing this, Sheila Matthews. Brandon Showalter.
00:52:34.560 John Lott's going to stick with me. We've got Mary Holland. What is happening at the CDC? What is
00:52:39.480 happening with these issues regarding vaccines? Where does the military go next? On what city in the
00:52:46.440 United States? All next and much more in the War Room.
00:52:57.140 What if he had the brightest mind in the War Room delivering critical financial research every month?
