Steve Bannon joins Lou Dobbs on The Great America Show to discuss the Georgia Senate runoff, and his thoughts on the race between Republican Rep. Steve Walker and Democratic Sen. Herschel Walker in Georgia's Tuesday runoff.
00:03:23.420They haven't taken, they haven't taken really the allowed Herschel Walker to be himself, which I think is a very powerful MAGA candidate, you know, right to life candidate.
00:03:36.800They haven't really let Herschel be Herschel.
00:03:38.780But then they didn't really do, you know, they're banking on Kemp's ground game.
00:03:43.000We're supposed to be the most legendary in Georgia.
00:03:46.000And to give the devil his due, Governor Kemp crushed Stacey Abrams and was an impeccably run campaign.
00:03:54.000I would have liked to have seen that here.
00:03:55.680I'm just seeing it, but we're working nonstop to make sure the MAGA votes get out like we did in Virginia.
00:04:01.320And, you know, we've got other, we've got Cobb County and other people on the show today and throughout tomorrow all day to make sure people turn it.
00:04:07.940Like I said, a million votes on game day draws you close.
00:04:14.960Anything close to a million two, he probably squeaks out a win.
00:04:17.560And this is, you know, and it's a massive, massive win.
00:04:21.880If we go to 50-50 power sharing, you could have Tester or particularly Manchin, you know, really, you know, basically vote Republican, which would be enormous.
00:04:33.120I can't emphasize how important this is.
00:05:03.540But he's trying to pull every game in the world.
00:05:05.280And thank God some senators who aspire to be populist leaders like Ted Cruz, like Marco Rubio, obviously Josh Hawley, are stepping up here.
00:05:14.320So, you know, it's – and look, with President Trump, you know, the McConnell thing is his problem.
00:05:20.160You know, he endorsed – he never took on McConnell.
00:05:22.760He endorsed all these McConnell acolytes, which is outrageous.
00:05:26.780And they're all working against President Trump every day of the week.
00:05:30.360And what McConnell's had to say about the president in the last couple weeks to me is just unforgivable.
00:05:36.200So it's – you know, I'm not a fan of McConnell's, but, man, we've empowered this guy, and he's lethal.
00:05:42.400Yeah, he is, and in empowering him, he is denuding the leadership of the Republican Party, not only in the Senate, but across the country, throughout the power structure.
00:05:59.360McConnell is serving one master, and that seems to be the CCP.
00:06:04.540I think people have to just look at what is happening and why, and he is doing so through the surrogate for the CCP, which is the Biden White House.
00:06:15.360There is no other way to look at it, in my opinion.
00:06:18.940Well, let me jump in here for a second, Lou, because this – you know, Newt Gingrich, I know you think very highly of.
00:06:32.720So Axios had a huge, massive story that really got a lot of coverage this week.
00:06:37.900Newt Gingrich came out and said, hey, the Republican Party, particularly the Lou Dobbses and the Steve Bannons of the world, are not focused on how Biden's winning and how Biden's really, you know, governing and how Biden does it and all this.
00:06:53.720There was no mention in the entire piece, and he's never mentioned, McConnell's collaboration.
00:06:58.520The only reason that Biden has any what they would call successes, which I think are disasters, is because of collaborationist Republicans in the Senate that all report to Mitch McConnell to do his bidding.
00:07:11.700The only reason that Biden has had anything that he can point to is because of Mitch McConnell.
00:07:16.540Mitch McConnell is not a party in opposition.
00:07:18.280This is what I think one of the most powerful things that President Trump has done, Lou, is to show people how to be in opposition, right?
00:07:27.620If you're in opposition, there's a lot you can do.
00:07:30.800And what I mean a lot by do is you can stop things.
00:07:56.420It's really by Mitch McConnell's hand that McConnell has these, quote, unquote, successes, all of which, Lou, as you and I have discussed in your program many, many times, have been a disaster to the American people.
00:08:12.340And I'm sure that Newt does understand what a collaborator, McConnell, is an enabler of this mad Marxist dictator that we have in the White House.
00:08:27.840I mean, here we have an impaired president with almost no public gifts whatsoever.
00:08:35.500And whatever gifts he had have dissipated to the point of incomprehension.
00:08:42.080And he is succeeding time after time because there is a machine at work here.
00:08:48.280It is a machine that includes a cabal of Marxist Dems from the Obama administration.
00:08:55.000It includes certainly a collaboration with the RINOs of the Republican Party and, of course, Wall Street and what was once corporate America.
00:09:15.480I think the revelations we're seeing now about the FBI and DOJ involvement in Twitter and their involvement in Facebook and their involvement in really suppressing and lying about the Hunter Biden laptop being rushed to this information is –
00:09:32.160and I think it's going to put us into a constitutional crisis.
00:09:35.480I mean, I think we're in a constitutional crisis already.
00:09:38.020But by the spring of next year, we're going to be in a big one because what he just said is true.
00:09:42.920These people are all working in a glove, and now it's being exposed because Elon Musk –
00:09:51.320And the crimes that are inside Twitter are legendary.
00:09:54.460And it's going to be – the revelations are going to shock the nation.
00:09:58.580We do know that up to – I think 17% of Democrats would have even changed their vote on – about Biden if they had – if they – if the laptop from hell,
00:10:09.720particularly the things about the Chinese Communist Party's financial involvement with the Biden crime family were true.
00:10:15.120We know they actively suppressed this.
00:10:16.860We know they did it because they read the emails of Rudy Giuliani.
00:10:20.720They had wiretapped and had my emails, Bob Costello, my lawyers, of course, Bernie Kerricks.
00:10:26.780They knew exactly what we were doing, the due diligence of the laptop when we got it.
00:10:31.300By the way, I might mention they had the laptop from December of the previous year.
00:10:35.700So President Trump never even needed to go through the first impeachment.
00:10:39.080This is a scandal that's going to make Bordergate look like a garden party.
00:10:42.680It's going to be – and it's going to – and it's going to – I tell you, the nation is going to be in turmoil because we're in a constitutional crisis.
00:10:48.700We clearly have, as I've said, an illegitimate president.
00:10:51.660And we now know that the national security state with the law enforcement, quote-unquote, agencies of the FBI and the DOJ were actively participants in a coup.
00:11:01.320And, you know, that will all be proven.
00:11:05.420We had Emma Jo Morris on the day, the young editor at the Post, and we reached out to first, and we got – then she got Miranda Devine involved.
00:11:12.920And when the New York Post heroically broke the story, it was the reason I was banned – or I've never been on Twitter, but War Room was banned permanently on Twitter for putting up the laptop from health stories.
00:11:27.060When they looked at – when Biden looked the camera in the eye, when the eyebreak came out about Russian disinformation from the New York Times to the Wall Street Journal to the – I guess the Wall Street Journal they printed from the New York Times, Washington Post, NPR, all of it, they knew – the FBI, the DOJ, and Biden knew that what we presented was actual fact.
00:11:46.640They knew it wasn't Russian disinformation.
00:11:47.940So they looked the American people in the eye and lied to them, knowing what we had and knowing now that everybody's confirmed from the Washington Post, the Wall Street Journal, to the New York Times, themselves to CBS News even.
00:12:00.800They all come back and ascertain that, yes, it was right, just like we knew it was back in August and September of 2020.
00:12:07.180So this is going to be a scandal, and it will, I think, engulf much of the political dialogue that takes – Capitol Hill next year is going to be a free-fire zone of – metaphorically, in politics.
00:12:17.740It's going to be intense, it's going to be intense like you've never seen it before.
00:12:22.440I think it has to be, and if it isn't, we know one thing.
00:12:25.900The Marxist left and won the battle, because if that is not the case, and if this – the power structure is absolutely quiescent about what is a moment of revolution in this country,
00:12:43.740I would – we would all have to be suppressed to the ultimate.
00:12:52.900It will be a firestorm, and I think it is building toward that right now.
00:12:57.620I don't know if we make it to Christmas without that firestorm, because even the national left-wing corporatist media is starting to acknowledge the story, which I think is remarkable in and of itself.
00:13:09.280I do want to go to the role of Elon Musk here.
00:13:18.060We had a billionaire populist win the 2016 election and would have won the 2020 election.
00:13:27.080Now we have a multi-billion – well, the richest man in the world, the ultimate oligarch, who is the largest and most powerful defender of free speech in 2022 America.
00:13:45.420I mean, look, people – it's pretty well known, although I know the people around Elon, and I know Elon and the people around him very, very well, people I've had a lot of association with who are really smart and tough people.
00:14:00.780I've got a lot of problems, number one, with his association with the CCP, particularly with Tesla and the factory in Shanghai.
00:14:07.820Also, his – these issues with Neuralink, I'm a huge anti-transhumanist, and Elon Musk is the – really the leader of that.
00:14:15.900Now he defends himself saying he's trying to protect us from AI.
00:14:18.400Look, he was on for two hours on Twitter the other day at an impromptu kind of press conference with 10 people that were pounding with questions from his jet, and we covered it on Getter.
00:14:40.160In the conversation, he said, Lou, that he's spending 95% of his time on Twitter just taking care of the basic program, the engineering, the programming, and the mistakes.
00:14:50.600Now, remember, he's let go two-thirds of 75% of the company, and so far it's running well.
00:14:55.860Now, that shows that they had literally 7,000, 7,500 employees, I think, that were essentially worthless.
00:15:03.020What he's doing now – and a couple things.
00:15:05.440Number one, with the presidential election in 2020, turning over to Matt Taibbi and Ms. Weiss to drill down on all of where the bodies are buried, and they're quite substantial.
00:15:25.060Elon Musk is a guy that I think is a fighter for freedom.
00:15:28.900That being said, on both transhumanism and the CCP, he's got issues.
00:15:33.200But what he's doing with Twitter is nothing short of amazing.
00:15:38.080And here's what the important point is.
00:15:40.240It's what we've always said was the case, Lou.
00:15:42.160We have said from the beginning that it's not really a company.
00:15:45.080It's actually an apparatus that the national security state, the deep state or the administrative state, has essentially taken over and was their ability to drive narrative.
00:15:54.480That's all coming to the forefront in literally in documents from reporters who are not guys you would find at Breitbart, like Matt Taibbi.
00:16:04.440He was the famous investigative reporter for Rolling Stone.
00:16:34.780And any time that you have – we had Cash Patel on today to talk about this.
00:16:39.540Any time that you have information directly related to foreign compromise of a presidential candidate or obviously a senior government executive,
00:16:47.800these decisions have been made at the head, at the FBI level, and main justice with the attorney general.
00:16:55.220We know for a fact that it – by a grand jury subpoena, an eyewitness of the gentleman that turned it in,
00:17:03.160main justice and the FBI had the laptop from hell in December of 2019.
00:17:08.600Just to refresh the audience's memory, that is before President Trump was impeached.
00:17:15.280They had it weeks before he was impeached, never came forward, never notified President Trump,
00:17:20.540never notified anybody at the White House, never notified congressional leaders.
00:17:25.120Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren, I'm sure they would have liked to know this information.
00:17:29.960This is a scandal that is – Watergate is going to shrink in comparison.
00:17:34.500We have a scandal that is literally going to throw us into the middle of a constitutional crisis because it's quite evident from even the evidence today
00:17:42.240that the law enforcement, quote-unquote, of the DOJ, FBI, and the national security, including the CIA,
00:17:49.200worked on a coup d'etat to remove Donald J. Trump as president of the United States.
00:17:53.580It's evident that that happened, and Joe Biden is illegitimate.
00:17:56.460And this is going to get to deeper than the Perkins Coy, Mark Elias, the architect of the Big Steel.
00:18:04.500This is going to be deeper than the Big Steel.
00:18:06.420We're going to get to the heart of a government that removed a sitting president and commander-in-chief.
00:18:11.160That's where this is going, and that's what I'm saying, just looking over the other side of the hill
00:24:42.060This really pulls in and is going to drag in the Biden administration because many of the things with the CCP were initiated when Joe Biden,
00:24:49.060when president, remember, Biden was put on as a babysitter for Obama because they thought Obama was an anti-war populace that had beaten Hillary Clinton.
00:24:58.620They put Joe Biden, the career guy on the House of the Foreign Affairs Committee, in basically Delaware.
00:25:03.840He's the global corporatist senator from Delaware, which is the corporate headquarters.
00:25:09.400He was supposed to be the adult supervision.
00:25:11.280When Obama decided to have the, quote, unquote, pivot to Asia, which they never did, Joe Biden was in charge of that.
00:25:17.440That's why Joe Biden has this long-term relationship with Xi.
00:25:20.640This is why he has the 70 hours of one-on-one meetings with Xi.
00:25:23.580This is why his son went with him on Air Force Two when he went to China and started to monetize that relationship with the Chinese Communist Party at the time.
00:25:32.820This is a scandal that is going to shock the nation and cause a constitutional crisis because it's quite legitimate.
00:25:40.420We have essentially a Manchurian candidate that's bought and paid for by the Chinese Communist Party.
00:25:45.460It's all laid out in detail, the family's financial compromise, but one memo of this, of thousands of memos, would get anybody else in jail for being an unregistered foreign agent.
00:25:57.220He's monetized this, and here's the key point.
00:25:59.700The Federal Bureau of Investigations head and the Attorney General of the United States in a Republican administration knew this and knew it almost a year before we broke it through the hero.
00:26:14.520Bob Costello, Rudy's lawyer, my lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, Bernie Carrick, Emma-Jo Morse of the now of Breitbart, then of the New York Post, the great Miranda Devine, and I had a supporting role, broke this in basically in October of 2020.
00:26:49.280They had been in custody of the receipts a long time.
00:26:51.800They knew exactly that they were prepared to have an imposter, someone who's compromised by the greatest enemy this nation's ever had, the Chinese Communist Party, take the job of President of the United States and Commander-in-Chief of our military.
00:27:42.680And I can't think of any, I can't think of a single department that isn't corrupted.
00:27:49.420And the Department of Justice, in league with lawfare, with the ABA, in league with every, every corrupted institution that I can think of around law.
00:28:04.140It is, who is going to defend the Constitution, becomes the question.
00:28:31.180I think this is what gets back to your comments about the speaker.
00:28:34.700Right now, we have control of the, we have the control of all the money, and we have the control of the investigations.
00:28:42.100The House, remember, the founders set it up.
00:28:44.200They built the House of Representatives, like the House of Commons.
00:28:47.320All taxation, all spending must initiate out of the House.
00:28:52.220We have 100% authority to defund anything we want and dare the Biden administration to shut down the government, to dare them to shut down the government.
00:29:01.360This is why Kevin McCarthy, I think, has to make a very compelling argument, which he has failed to make to date, about why he's the guy that actually has the stones.
00:29:11.080And I mean a spine of steel to be able to get in there and to basically do investigations and the funding process, what I call the defunding process, actually begin, really, the restoration of the Trump presidency.
00:29:25.280President Trump will be reelected in 2024.
00:29:30.000It is to shut down this illegitimate president that is Joe Biden.
00:29:33.740It's to force, through investigations, a complete accounting of all this, and then to have criminal referrals.
00:29:40.300And it's to take on the Justice Department and the FBI.
00:29:42.620I think there's an article in Newsweek I showed with you earlier, Lou, that talks about what the Justice Department and FBI's big focus right now is going after MAGA terrorists.
00:29:53.600They are coming after the MAGA movement as domestic terrorists, whether these are moms and dads going to school boards, whether these are people that are sitting there going, the FBI is corrupt, whether these are people that are out looking at election stealing in Arizona.
00:30:08.580They're coming after you, not just with law firm, but to weaponize the FBI against the MAGA movement.
00:30:18.120There's no area that we can compromise in this.
00:30:20.440One side's going to win, and one side's going to lose.
00:30:23.420And right now, if we get a Speaker of the House, like a Jim Jordan, who's got complete, total steel in his spine, we will save this republic.
00:30:43.260What do we do, in your judgment, to move this forward?
00:30:50.860Because there cannot be, in my judgment, anyone who has accused the president as he did, who has betrayed him, who is the leader of the party, the America First MAGA movement in this country.
00:31:07.360How do we get to that right person right now?
00:31:12.560Well, first of all, I think the president's got to step up here.
00:31:16.240I think this is all part – look, President Trump had the most successful presidency up until the CCP virus, and I still think he did a terrific job, given he had Pence and Fauci and his others.
00:31:27.180But up until 19, when they impeached him for what they knew was a lie, right, the most successful presidency, I think even more successful than President Reagan, who I revere, okay, number one.
00:31:39.660Number two, he had – we now know – we now know that they stole his victory in 2020.
00:31:56.980But one of the reasons I think he and I have a good relationship, I'm not shy about giving him my advice with both barrels.
00:32:02.660The Mitch McConnell problem is, quite frankly, because we didn't take care of business, okay?
00:32:07.700We can't allow that to happen in the House.
00:32:09.600The president, I think, needs to come forward and not be neutral on this.
00:32:12.760I think the president needs to step up and say, hey, look, I think this is a very unique race for the House.
00:32:19.000If he supports Kevin McCarthy, which the McCarthy guys are saying, I don't know if I believe that or not, I think the president's got to come out and make that clear.
00:32:26.780Either I'm staying neutral, I support Kevin McCarthy, or I support somebody else.
00:32:32.100I have to say, I think people need –
00:33:43.440I think the president needs to be engaged.
00:33:44.820I think President Trump, as I've said, I think he needs to be engaged on what's happening here on the lame duck, because they are structurally between the debt ceiling, the omnibus, the defense authorization with all the wokeness, the amnesty for $11 million.
00:33:58.060They're trying to structurally change things that make sure that Trump's second term would be handcuffed from the beginning.
00:34:04.060I think he needs to be engaged on everything that's happening in the next three weeks on Capitol Hill.
00:34:07.900I think he needs to be engaged in the speaker's race.
00:34:09.820I think he needs to support the rebellion against Mitch McConnell that is happening by Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz and Braun and Josh Hawley.
00:34:19.420And these other heroic senators are now stepping up against Rick Scott.
00:34:24.760And I think most importantly, like that great tweet right there, sir, his truth social, he needs a step forward and I think take more of a leading role in actually how we get to the bottom of what happened here.
00:34:36.860And because it what it can't be lost on people.
00:34:44.620It goes and Garland, these guys are far worse and we'll get all into that.
00:34:49.080But the beating heart of the problem right now that we must get to the bottom of is between basically November and December of 2019, all the way to really January 20th of 2021.
00:35:01.360When Biden illegitimately took the oath of office that time period and you've done such a great job of the preamble leading up to all the Ukraine situation, the Russia gate, everything for the day he won is the preamble right when they took their first shot with Mueller and everybody else.
00:35:16.900But that time period from November of 2019, December 2019 till Biden took the oath of office, it is a time in American history that the that the administrative state in the deep state in a last gasp measure determined that they didn't care what they had to do.
00:35:37.080That Donald J. Trump was not essentially going to finish his term as really commander in chief as they denuded him and then that they were going to remove him from office.
00:35:49.960And I think President Trump's got to now step up to the forefront of this, not lead it, but he's got to be much more, I think, engaged in this thing, because this is going to lead to a to a to a constitutional crisis.
00:36:01.200We're going to compete. The American people are going to be faced with information by next spring.
00:36:06.880That'll be irrefutable. OK, in congressional testimony in other areas, that they will understand that we have an illegitimate guy at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue that has made decisions of the 10 of 10 of trillions of dollars that have changed the economic direction of the country.
00:36:25.180At the same time, done things without national security, at the same time, done things without education or culture that can't be unwound.
00:36:33.440And it's going to be a crisis. What do you do about that? So it is, I would say, stay tuned.
00:36:38.700This is going to be only it's going to get hotter every day as more information comes out.
00:36:44.000And and we're going to see a lot of smoke lift from the battlefield over the course of the next, I think, matters of weeks.
00:36:51.820You may be right about months. I just fear that the republic can't survive anything approaching a a normal committee process in the Congress of the United States, all of Benghazi, all of the nonsense that has been attempted before.
00:37:09.180This had better be for real. And it better be quick because the American people are are absolutely right now.
00:37:18.400They have the heel of the deep state and the Marxist Dems in their necks.
00:37:26.620Steve, as always, wonderful to talk with you, illuminating, provocative.
00:37:31.940And of course, I agree with everything you say.
00:37:36.660I don't want that to color my my hyperbolic applause, but you are a great American.
00:37:45.720I want to thank you. I want to thank you.
00:37:48.080I want to thank you because I'm going to talk to you, producer.
00:37:49.940As soon as the show goes up, we're listing your two minute summary of where we are, which is quite because people do that.
00:37:56.540That's why the details are important here.
00:37:58.100Bill Barr looking Donald J. Trump in the eye in the Oval Office in in in late November of 2020 and lying to him, lying to him that he had done a report.
00:38:12.880The reason we know it's a lie for your own things is that through a foreign request, I think of Tom Fittner at Epoch Times, all the they went to all the regional offices of the U.S.
00:38:30.320They had not done anything, which Barr lied about.

00:38:40.160attorney there actually sent a letter to Barr requesting to go forward an investigation because he had absolute proof that they had been voter fraud, massive voter fraud in Pennsylvania.
