Hello everybody, I'm Lou Dobbs. This is the Great America Show. Great to have you with us today.
00:00:05.980
And we're 13 days out from the biggest midterm elections of our lives.
00:00:10.860
And the mad Marxist Dems are desperate. Obviously so.
00:00:15.100
They're flailing, trying to figure a way to hide old Joe and their party's commitment
00:00:19.480
to anything and everything that's anti-America, anti-family, anti-God, anti-life,
00:00:26.940
and pro-Marx, pro-cartel. They want to bring you and me to our knees to destroy this great country
00:00:34.200
of ours, and they'll do whatever it takes to achieve their end, which is the end of America.
00:00:40.860
Biden has done more damage to this country in less than two years than any president in history,
00:00:46.800
no matter how many years they had to screw things up. Whatever else Joe Biden is, he is fundamentally
00:00:53.440
the screw-up. But he can also claim to be doing exactly what he wants, throwing open our southern
00:01:00.060
border, making the Mexican drug cartels ever greater fortunes with their smuggling of illegals,
00:01:06.700
more than four to six million entering the U.S. since Biden took office. Think of that,
00:01:11.960
four to six million. And sex trafficking, smuggling deadly drugs, especially fentanyl,
00:01:17.920
with the help of the Chinese Communist Party, of course. That's right. The Chinese and Mexican
00:01:23.520
drug cartels are in league to poison and kill as many Americans as they can. Fentanyl is now the
00:01:30.820
number one killer of Americans, aged 18 to 45. And what is Biden doing about it? Well, you would guess
00:01:38.200
nothing and you would be right. But today, a little diversion from the public eye brought to us by the
00:01:44.700
Biden Department of Justice. The DOJ held a press conference to announce they brought charges against
00:01:50.940
more than a dozen Chinese intelligence agents. Charges ranged from stealing technology and equipment
00:01:57.740
to obstructing justice against a Chinese tech company. No statement on how many of the spies were
00:02:04.860
actually arrested by the FBI. Isn't that interesting? They didn't announce the number of arrests,
00:02:10.780
but they do know all about the cases. FBI Director Christopher Wray said the cases lay bare
00:02:17.040
the Chinese flagrant violation, as he put it, of international laws. What about that? They're
00:02:24.140
violating international laws, not our laws. And what are we doing here? Is that what you do with
00:02:29.620
spies? You bring in the FBI? I would like to see them do a little more than that. Where is counterintelligence
00:02:36.740
across our intelligence community? I hate to break it to G-Man Ray that we already knew all of that,
00:02:44.080
all the way back in the mid-1980s. There were 3,500 Chinese front companies operating in the United
00:02:51.860
States then, with a specific mission of stealing our intellectual property, technology, and military
00:02:58.020
secrets. And they've done a pretty good job of it, almost unimpeded by the FBI or any other government
00:03:04.720
agency. The Chinese, in fact, have stolen about $500 billion in technology and intellectual property
00:03:13.200
every year since then. And we've known that for decades. Garland and Ray look like fools for trying
00:03:21.180
to make fools out of the American people. The question is, why did they only come up with 13 spies
00:03:27.680
out of the thousands who have to be working in this country? That kind of weak-minded stunt by this
00:03:34.580
administration and other stunts like it will be a big part of the reason that the giant red wave that
00:03:41.200
slams into the Marxist Dems on November 8 will be even bigger than expected. That kind of stunt
00:03:48.160
producing that kind of result on November 8 and helping will be the fact they've gone after patriots like
00:03:54.560
Steve Bannon. He's our guest here today, former Trump strategist, advisor, and great American Steve
00:04:02.160
Bannon. Great to have you with us, Steve. And welcome to the Great America Show. Steve has been
00:04:08.000
and is at the point of the spear in the fight against the totalitarian Marxist Dems who are trying to
00:04:14.020
destroy this country. Their politics of lies, deceit, personal destruction, and their scorched earth
00:04:19.760
tactics. The venal left has thrown all of that at Steve Bannon and more. And let's begin, Steve,
00:04:26.580
with your assessment of where you are now, your next moves in the battle with a Stalinist J6 and corrupt
00:04:33.820
DOJ. Well, look, I respect the judge's decision. I can respect the juries. Given the limitations of what
00:04:44.220
they can consider, he laid out in court the other day, the four major areas for appeal,
00:04:51.220
I'll probably have maybe even as many as six. My appellate lawyers, my lawyers are all over it right
00:04:56.300
now. We'll signify the appeal before the 15th of November, and then we'll go there. I think this
00:05:04.060
thing, my lawyers and all the research that's been presented to me, I think we have a strong case on
00:05:10.100
appeal, and we'll see how it plays. But, you know, Lou, the Justice Department, the FBI here in the
00:05:18.060
Congressional Committee should be ashamed of themselves. This thing has been run as a show
00:05:22.440
trial. Everybody knows that there's no ranking member. There's no minority counsel. There's no
00:05:26.340
way to look at the evidence across. And I think hopefully we put this chapter, after November 8th,
00:05:32.620
we put this chapter of American political history in back of us and get back to doing things in an
00:05:37.660
organized method. I do intend, if it's taken up, I mean, I intend to press this executive privilege
00:05:44.640
situation and separation of powers, hopefully all the way to the Supreme Court, because I think it's
00:05:49.620
got to be sorted out. You know, Greg Jarrett had a great piece the other night on Fox, and I think
00:05:55.360
it's got to be sorted out, that we've got to get, we've got to really get a conclusion from the
00:05:59.440
Supreme Court about executive privilege and who exactly the president can talk to and about the
00:06:03.760
privilege and all of it. So there's a lot of work to do here, and my team's already on it.
00:06:11.300
Well, I appreciate that, Steve. And this battle is one that you have to win. It's just, this is so
00:06:19.860
wrongheaded, so upside down and evil in its intent. This is no longer ideological. These people are,
00:06:28.920
without question, the Marxist Dems are trying to destroy this country and every tenet of our
00:06:36.000
constitutional republic. And they're trying, I just am stunned that there are so few judges that are
00:06:44.940
not reacting to the constitutional power of this president and the absurd abuse of power that had
00:06:56.620
been on their face just wrong, deeply wrong, whether we're talking about the law, the Constitution,
00:07:03.840
or morality itself. And this is a country under assault, and I still swear to you, I think maybe
00:07:10.740
as much as a quarter, 30 percent of the country really still doesn't believe that this government
00:07:18.000
is as corrupt as it is. And I also want to say, parenthetically, I salute you for respecting the
00:07:24.200
courts and respecting the judicial process. But I have to tell you right now, I have no respect for
00:07:30.880
it whatsoever, because it is so, it is an unmitigated, corrupt process that we're going to have to deal
00:07:41.760
You know, Lou, and you've been warning American people about this now for decades and decades and
00:07:46.940
decades, but go to that point about the rule of law. At 11 p.m. on Friday, and Lou, you know when
00:07:53.020
the White House and the administration or regime's putting out information at 11 o'clock on a Friday
00:07:57.360
night, they're not looking for a lot of coverage. They released the fiscal year's numbers for the
00:08:04.060
invasion on the southern border. And it's so jaw-dropping that you have all these laws on the books, all
00:08:10.640
these regulations that are on the books, black letter on the books, and you see what they've done
00:08:16.700
to subvert immigration law and asylum law, to literally let millions of people. I calculate
00:08:22.960
there's 6 to 8 million either gotaways or illegal aliens or false asylum claims here in the nation
00:08:29.280
today. Now, Todd Benzman was on our show earlier. He thinks it's 4 million, so 4 million to 8 million.
00:08:36.020
And you sit there and you see about the judges and you see about the administration, you see about
00:08:40.800
Merrick Garland. This is why I say Merrick Garland. You know, heck with Mayorkas. I think Merrick Garland
00:08:46.020
and ultimately Biden will be brought up on impeachment charges. I take the first article of
00:08:50.940
Garland, which I think there'll be many others. I think Garland's will be the invasion of the southern
00:08:55.340
border. We're there. You have all this other stuff they're doing in the Constitution, all this other stuff
00:08:59.600
they're doing about, you know, parents as domestic terrorists, arresting individuals who are praying at
00:09:06.500
abortion. The son is praying the rosary. And you see the southern border where we have an invasion
00:09:12.600
that is, it's mind-boggling in its scale. And they're happy with it. And then, Lou, to top it off,
00:09:19.480
they all went on the Sunday shows, including Mayorkas and Kamala Harris. They go on the Sunday
00:09:23.100
shows and look America in the eye after releasing that data on Friday night and say, the border is
00:09:28.180
secure. They're just in your face with it. This is beyond gaslight. This is just bald face,
00:09:34.020
in your face line. And they expect, you said 30 percent. It's maybe even higher than that,
00:09:38.940
maybe 40 percent, right? But it's not much higher than that, or not paying attention enough to
00:09:43.340
understand what's going on. And that's what they're banking on. But now, this is so spun out of
00:09:48.140
control that it's got to be stopped. And that's why November 8th is so important.
00:09:52.980
November 8th is without question. This is our, this is an existential, perhaps the first
00:10:00.760
existential midterm election. I truly believe it. And I don't know if there will be a 2024
00:10:06.680
unless we win this election on November 8th. It is really that straightforward to me and that
00:10:14.280
dangerous a moment in our history. You mentioned the domestic terrorists, the domestic violence
00:10:21.240
that the whistleblowers are telling the House Judiciary Committee, Jim Jordan telling the Senate
00:10:27.680
Judiciary Committee, Chuck Grassley, about the efforts to cook the books on, of all things,
00:10:36.740
domestic white nationalism is what they're really attacking, trying to create the specter
00:10:44.240
of a white nationalist force that is subversive and violent and should be considered the same as
00:10:52.420
a foreign radical Islamist terrorist within our own borders. It's all being manufactured by the deep
00:11:00.560
state and the leaders, so-called, at least the top officials of, the FBI. This is just criminal to
00:11:12.360
It's, it's my vibe, but you see now you get FBI agents are coming forward. Other people are coming
00:11:19.620
forward. We know that they, they've gun decked, uh, the statistics about, uh, about, uh, about domestic
00:11:25.620
terrorism. We know that they've lied about, they said they didn't have a tracking unit, uh, looking at
00:11:30.880
parents. Lou, I think what the good news out of here is it's obviously lawless. It's something we've
00:11:36.600
never seen before. I'm breaking the rule. I'm really turning into authoritarian state like the
00:11:41.400
CCP is, but the American people, you know, CNN, the, one of the top stories this morning is quote
00:11:47.520
unquote, Trump lost the suburbs. This is how the Republicans are winning them back. You know, this
00:11:52.340
gets back to the spring and summer 2021. We were talking to Warner about the mass mandates and the
00:11:58.200
vaccine mandates and CRT and all these things are happening at the schools that, uh, independent women,
00:12:04.280
uh, moderate women, democratic women who are not, you know, Trump fans, we're going to form a
00:12:09.420
coalition, which we did around the Glenn Youngkin candidacy where you have a hundred percent of
00:12:13.720
MAGA turnout and you have a coalition of these parents who normally wouldn't be with MAGA on
00:12:19.140
issues who are now open to the fact of when they see the gas prices, they see their savings
00:12:23.960
crumbling. They see the house values crumbling. When they see all this madness on the creative
00:12:28.480
crisis of the Biden, uh, economic and financial emergency are now coming. And I think this is leading
00:12:33.760
to this potential sweeping victory. If we can deliver the vote and if we can get out the vote,
00:12:39.360
this is why Rhode Island two is in play for the first time since 1992. It's why Connecticut two
00:12:44.560
and five, these house seats are in play two seats in, uh, in New Hampshire. Now, uh, within a three
00:12:51.360
points is, uh, Gerald Malloy up in, uh, in, in Vermont running for the U S Senate 30 points down.
00:12:59.760
Now it's in three with no money. He's got $250,000 at $5 million of ads.
00:13:05.360
You're seeing New York state. There are 15, uh, house seats in play, including Sean Patrick, uh,
00:13:10.960
Maloney, who's the Dean of CC chair at the, today, uh, Wasserman, a cook, a political report,
00:13:17.120
puts his seat as a toss up. You're seeing across the country in the, in the, the Hill newspaper
00:13:23.760
leaves this morning that anxious building among the Democrats because they think they, they focus
00:13:28.960
on the wrong issue set. You know, this threats to democracy, climate change, uh, abortion,
00:13:34.800
it's not playing out. Transgender rights, uh, uh, you know, overcoming parental rights,
00:13:38.960
it's not playing out. They, they've missed the mark and, and it looks like judgment days,
00:13:43.280
but we have to deliver. And I agree with you. I think it's existential. I think since 1862,
00:13:49.360
in the first years of the civil war, we haven't had a midterm election. And I would remind people
00:13:53.920
that in 1862, that congressional election changed the course of the civil war. Up until that time,
00:13:59.920
people were looking for a negotiated deal, uh, the, the democratic generals, McClellan,
00:14:05.040
and these guys just would not take the torts to the Confederacy. And I'm, I come from Richmond,
00:14:09.280
Virginia. That's my hometown, but would not take it, you know, did not, were not prepared to do
00:14:14.480
what had to be done to basically save the union. And after that midterm election, things changed
00:14:19.840
dramatically. And, uh, and I think you're gonna see it here. I think, I think the country is just
00:14:23.840
the same type of existential crisis as it was in 1862. And I think here you're going to see a
00:14:29.760
fundamental change on the 8th of November. If everybody does what we feel they can do,
00:14:35.200
which is own your vote, help other people get there, do a massive, get out the vote,
00:14:39.280
a campaign right now. Let's have a sweeping destruction of the democratic party. Yeah, I, I,
00:14:44.720
I agree with you. Uh, totally. Uh, what I do want to say is I do, I, it's, it's, it's 1862 for me as
00:14:55.280
well, uh, because I don't want to negotiate it. By the way, I don't want to ask, I don't ask too
00:15:01.200
a tougher question. You were there, right? Well, in spirit, I certainly was, I guarantee you. Uh,
00:15:08.080
I, in 1862, the idea of a negotiated settlement, uh, was no more repugnant, frankly, uh, than one
00:15:16.880
would be to me now, uh, with the radical, radical Marxist stems. These people mean business. This is,
00:15:22.800
there's nothing to negotiate. They're coming for our children. Uh, they're mutilating our children.
00:15:28.160
They are talking sex and gender change. And, uh, from K through 12 in this country,
00:15:34.880
in our public schools, which are the great equalizer for America and have always been,
00:15:39.520
they're treating it like a, uh, a, a trash heap instilled of a pristine cathedral that it is for
00:15:46.480
learning, uh, for moving talent, uh, into its proper place and to support, to support, uh, our values
00:15:54.960
as a nation through our education of history, uh, in history and government and our, and civics
00:16:02.160
in our public schools. And, and they are fouling every element of our public education. And both
00:16:08.960
of these teachers unions have to be held accountable. And they're coming for your children,
00:16:14.000
folks. If you haven't figured it out, the Marxist stems are coming for your children. And if you're
00:16:18.800
not scared enough before you hear that, I hope you are now because it is exactly what is at stake.
00:16:24.640
Uh, I, I can't even imagine. Uh, I taught, I was talking with, uh, James Comer, Congressman Comer
00:16:32.000
the other day, uh, who is a terrific patriot, a great American. And I said to him, I said, I don't
00:16:38.640
think you guys have got more than 60 days before you decide who your leader is. Uh, you could go have,
00:16:45.040
uh, an election for speaker on the ninth, but the American people aren't going to have a speaker 60
00:16:50.400
days later. Uh, if you act anything like, uh, you acted in 2018, uh, what do you think?
00:16:58.160
Well, I, uh, I'll tell you, I think the burden is going to be on Comer's shoulders and who the
00:17:02.960
leaders are. I happen to think, and I just think that the deal's already been cut. I, I just assume
00:17:09.360
it's going to be McCarthy. And I assume it's going to be McCarthy for all the signals we got. It's just
00:17:13.360
that it will he be, he's going to have to understand he's got a mandate here. And that mandate,
00:17:19.680
Comer's going to have a huge, huge, um, set of responsibilities on him. Because as I keep
00:17:25.040
saying, Lou, and you kind of taught me about appropriations, appropriations is going to be
00:17:28.960
the anvil. The investigation is going to be the hammer. And I think we have to go in tough with
00:17:34.160
the speaker's got to back this to say, uh, we're not going to, we're not going to appropriate
00:17:38.640
anything. Appropriation is the most important bill because that's how the money gets divvied up.
00:17:42.080
Well, there's no, we're not going to appropriate anything to DOJ or FBI until we see dramatic
00:17:47.040
reform and dramatic. I think action deconstruction and firing the people. That's right. Comer,
00:17:51.840
the burden on him is going to be tremendous. He's going to be one of the most important people
00:17:55.920
in this new Congress, but people want action. They don't want any more happy talk. And what
00:18:00.160
they definitely don't want is the traditional Washington swamp administrative state, you know,
00:18:04.640
the old okey doke where you head fake one way and you do something else. People are living.
00:18:09.360
And this, listen, this is the greatest political comeback in American history.
00:18:12.960
On January 20th of 2021, Louis, you didn't know better than anybody. It was over.
00:18:18.640
Everybody left Washington. President Trump was back in Mar-a-Lago. We had no political power.
00:18:23.280
You know, Biden was a quote, unquote, 61%. They had media. They had Wall Street. They had the global
00:18:28.560
corporations. They had universities. They had Hollywood. They had big tech. They had just silenced
00:18:33.760
President Trump. He had no way to communicate with anybody. He would put out of pressure in a couple of
00:18:37.840
of days. We were crushed. And it was MAGA and the deployables that led us back. This was their
00:18:44.160
victory. And they're going to demand action in the kind of days of happy talk. Because,
00:18:48.000
Louis, think about your show. Think about the issues you've talked about and had guest on and debated
00:18:54.080
over 20, 30, 40 years. And think of what we're talking about today. This is my point. This stuff is
00:19:00.160
so radical. It's so over the top. And people are now incensed. That's why they're going out to the polls.
00:19:06.880
This is kind of a self-organizing revolt. They're going to demand action.
00:19:12.160
Absolutely. And by the way, I'm not going to give anybody 60 days. I'm going to raise my voice the
00:19:19.900
second I even smell a whiff of weak-kneed rhinoism on the part of anyone in leadership. And I don't care
00:19:27.420
who it is. This country has got to demand real leadership. And the Republican Party has got to
00:19:33.140
get over itself and start doing what they promised to do, which is restore this great
00:19:39.460
republic. I want to turn, though, to, if I may, the appearance of the CEO of Dominion on 60 Minutes
00:19:49.740
just happened to be two weeks before the election, guaranteeing that everything's just nifty. And
00:19:55.780
I won't say anything about the interviewer who was asking all of those tough, hard-hitting questions
00:20:01.940
and betraying his huge knowledge base about electronic voting. They apparently had no research
00:20:08.620
and no sense of what is reality. But for this guy to be standing up there talking about electronic
00:20:16.000
voting, as he did, was an insult to everyone in this country. Your reaction, or this, along with
00:20:24.520
the Pelosi statement that we're going to win the House, does this suggest to you they know
00:20:31.580
Well, I have a lot of people that call me and say, hey, Katie Hobbs will actually be debating
00:20:36.260
if she really thought she was not with us. Look, the Dominion, obviously there's no, you know,
00:20:42.040
there's no coincidences here, right? They dropped that a couple weeks beforehand. Also, you have this
00:20:48.500
subpoena they got from President Trump for the committee. They're demanding all the records on the
00:20:52.340
4th of November, the Friday before, the Friday before the Tuesday, because they want to dominate the
00:20:58.000
news cycle. Now, look, I'm not a machine guy, as I say. I don't really understand it that well. I'm a
00:21:05.240
firm believer we've got to go to paper ballots, limited early voting. I don't think you have an election
00:21:11.180
month. You have an election day. We do it like France. I think that's our goal, and that's what
00:21:15.140
we're pushing for. I believe the 2020 election was stolen, and I think it was stolen by Mark
00:21:20.020
Elias and the mail-in ballots and what they did with the non-signature work.
00:21:27.920
Yes. Yes. I mean, Barr didn't do a report. It's just nonsense. Now, the machines, I don't
00:21:33.440
understand them enough. I just always think, hey, why can't we go to a hand count? Why can't we go to a
00:21:39.560
hand count of paper? If France can do it, the United States can do it. We have enough volunteers that
00:21:43.360
should be able to do it, but I'm a huge believer. 2020 was stolen. In fact, I think if you look at
00:21:51.340
these poll numbers where Biden's so low, if you look at where the Republicans actually look like
00:21:56.180
you could have an overwhelming tsunami, that is also kind of the, that's predicating the fact he
00:22:01.640
didn't get any votes to start with. I kind of think this is the 2020 election that we've taken out
00:22:07.520
of voter fraud. So there's no, there's no coincidences. I think it's very, I think it's
00:22:13.780
CBS being up in your face in doing this. And look, obviously there's a lot of court cases going on
00:22:19.080
that all get played out in court, but I think right now the American people should make sure that you
00:22:24.220
own your vote and particularly you've got to volunteer to be a, if you want to stop this,
00:22:27.840
you've got to be inside the county room. That means you've got to be a poll worker or election
00:22:31.960
judges and it's, it's on everybody's shoulder. But, you know, where the, where the electronics
00:22:36.640
really got to come into play and I'm not sure if it's a Dominion or another company, but this week
00:22:41.760
in, in this Sunday in, in Brazil is an election, every bit as important as Brexit was to Trump's
00:22:48.080
winning 16, you know, Bolsonaro has gone from, quote unquote, to the polls, 16 or 18 points down.
00:22:53.800
There's those polls now, he's, he's ahead in the, in the Supreme Court there. Is anybody mentions
00:22:58.600
anything about the machines that they mentioned, anything about voter fraud, they're automatically
00:23:02.640
like banned and rolled up by the police. It's getting to be, it's getting to be a, it's getting
00:23:06.300
to be a police state. I mean, it makes, Merrick Garland, I'm sure has got his pencil out taking
00:23:10.760
notes here about what's going on because they're playing smash about that in Brazil.
00:23:14.600
Okay. Well, then I should whisper this so that Merrick Garland doesn't get upset.
00:23:19.680
This, you were talking about how little you know about them. I've been reporting on electronic
00:23:23.880
voting for 20 years. These machines are too complicated for anyone. Certainly like you and me,
00:23:30.480
who, who, you know, I mean, we're not, I'll speak for myself. I'm not a PC expert. I'm not
00:23:37.380
technical in any way, but I do know one thing. Common sense tells you these machines are too
00:23:42.800
complicated. They're the, the clerks, the county clerks, the secretaries of state don't even
00:23:48.060
understand what's happening in these machines. And the companies won't even, and the companies
00:23:54.300
You bring an amazing point. And Mike Lindell, he's a machine guy. I'm not, I've said this
00:23:58.040
from day one, but he had these technical people make these presentations in quite depth about
00:24:02.360
these machines they've gotten. I sent that out to a number of head front guys. And the
00:24:06.360
response these guys got back, and by the way, most of the guys I sent it out to this review
00:24:10.520
are Democrats. And they came back and I said, you know, you would think these machines would
00:24:14.560
be just as simple as cash counting machines in Vegas, which do the cash count. But you know,
00:24:20.020
they were blown away by that point you just made. They go, why are these things so complicated?
00:24:23.480
I mean, these are technical people that invest in tech companies all the time. Their first
00:24:27.800
thing that came back to me was, and they had no idea. They said, we had no idea that these
00:24:32.680
things had this complicated. Why do they have all this software? Why does this thing even
00:24:37.180
open itself up to potentially being hacked? Why is it complex? It should be just as simple
00:24:41.960
as the, as the, as the machines in Vegas that really count cash. And people that are not,
00:24:48.300
certainly not Trumpers, not MAGA at all, pretty sophisticated guys came back with the exact
00:24:52.740
thing. The first thing they answer is, why is this so complicated? It's just way too complicated
00:24:57.420
for what the task it handles. I agree with you again, a hundred percent. I want to, I want to
00:25:03.880
close here, if I may, with General David Petraeus giving an interview in France and saying this,
00:25:12.540
I will quote, we are talking about the intervention of the North Atlantic Alliance in the event of an
00:25:18.780
attack on one of the NATO members. It is necessary to consider the option of using not NATO forces in
00:25:24.960
Ukraine, but multinational forces that have nothing to do with NATO. He then goes on to acknowledge
00:25:32.700
that basically that he, not basically, saying the United States may lead a multinational force against
00:25:39.560
Russia in Ukraine. And I don't understand the rest of the gibberish that he, as usual, spews about,
00:25:47.460
not NATO, but U.S. These people are nuts. And, and the Euros, I mean, it's, it's just exactly what
00:25:54.960
Trump said. The Euros think we're going to defend them. And our military industrial complex represented
00:26:01.120
by the man who wrote the doctrine, which is really a rationalization for failure called
00:26:06.500
the long war. David Petraeus wants us to lead the damn thing. Your thoughts.
00:26:11.380
Of all the bad stuff that happened this weekend, this must, and it was some terrible things over
00:26:18.480
the weekend, but this may be the most disturbing. Remember, they forward deployed a, a elements of
00:26:23.720
the 101st Airborne to Romania on the border. My daughter, my daughter's deployed to Eastern Germany
00:26:29.920
before, uh, when she, after she left 101st. The 101st has not been deployed to Germany since
00:26:34.860
World War II. Remember, that's the Band of Brothers, uh, uh, uh, you know, group. So it's not been
00:26:40.140
deployed to Europe. It's in Romania. It's not even the Europe we fought for. That was, you know,
00:26:44.720
it's already on the Ukrainian border. And Petraeus is sitting there talking about something
00:26:49.040
quite insidious. It's not about NATO coming together under Article 5. He's saying, no, you take
00:26:54.840
it out of the NATO situation, and it's a multinational force, multilateral force led by the United States.
00:27:01.460
They're actually discussing in the White House and the Pentagon, you can tell this,
00:27:05.940
deploying combat troops into Ukraine. And if people think the disaster of the adventurism
00:27:12.060
in Iraq and Afghanistan and in Vietnam, okay, were tragedies for the country, you ain't seen
00:27:18.500
nothing yet. This has got to be stopped. This is why November 8th is so important. And McCarthy's
00:27:22.280
actually signaling now that the open checkbook for Ukraine is over. And I can tell you, there's no
00:27:27.760
issue out there that I see in these, when I go out and talk to people, they have such
00:27:31.720
them more than the, well, I think writing off the trillion, taking the trillion dollars
00:27:36.320
off the deadbeat social justice warriors, the college debt, and putting that on working
00:27:39.840
class people may be number one. But number two is certainly the billions of dollars from
00:27:44.480
funneling in to the corrupt oligarchs in Ukraine. And now thinking of deploying young men and
00:27:49.920
women of the United States to combat roles in Ukraine, Petraeus is not even a NATO role,
00:27:54.920
but in a multinational or multilateral, you know, task force, it's scary. And I think
00:28:01.060
that I don't know why the Republicans are not calling Congress back like now and saying,
00:28:05.200
hey, is there a declaration of war here? What are we actually doing?
00:28:08.880
Well, because Kevin McCarthy hasn't got the guts. Mitch McConnell is too compromised for either
00:28:16.140
of them to do anything intelligent and responsible in the interest of the nation. God help us.
00:28:23.160
And God help us with this impaired puppet president at the top of our government,
00:28:29.240
along with Kamala Harris and no adjectives needed for her, followed by then Pelosi and Lloyd Austin
00:28:37.560
and Jake Sullivan and Tony Blinken. This country has never been in greater danger from within than
00:28:44.960
we are right now. We always give our guests the last word. And if you will, Steve, your concluding
00:28:50.760
thoughts. My concluding thoughts is God bless you, Lou Dobbs. I'm so glad you're around. You've
00:28:56.720
fought so many fights. You've been wrong or you've been right on so many topics, including look at
00:29:00.920
what's happening right now. The economy, inflation, the invasion on the southern border, adventurism
00:29:06.600
geopolitically. You have 40 or 50 years laid it out to the American people. I know President Trump's a
00:29:12.120
huge fan of following you forever as I have. You've been a great mentor. And God bless the fact that in
00:29:17.320
probably our biggest and toughest battle that you're still there, many of the ramparts.
00:29:23.200
Well, you're you're at the forefront of the spear and give them hell. Steve Bannon, great warrior and a
00:29:31.460
great platform. It's called a war room. And we appreciate it so much. Steve Bannon. Thank you.
00:29:37.440
Great American, great warrior. And catch him on the war room. Thanks, everybody, for being with us
00:29:43.940
today on the Great America Show. And please join us here tomorrow. Our guests will be two outstanding
00:29:49.320
Republicans, two great Americans in two of the hottest races in the midterm elections. New York
00:29:55.740
looks like it will be a barn burner down to the wire and Republican gubernatorial candidate Lee
00:30:01.360
Zeldin pulling ahead of the incumbent Democrat in recent polls and Republican attorney general
00:30:07.860
candidate Michael Henry running even with the incumbent Marxist Dem attorney general Letitia James.
00:30:15.080
And out in Nevada, former attorney general Adam Laxalt has pulled ahead of his Democrat opponent in the
00:30:20.860
race for the Senate there. Our guests tomorrow from his campaign bus in Nevada, senatorial candidate
00:30:26.980
Adam Laxalt. And from New York, Michael Henry, Republican for attorney general. Please join us tomorrow
00:30:34.000
right here. Till then, God bless you. And may God bless America.
