Episode 5211: Two Terror Attacks Unfold Domestically As War Continues Across The Middle East

0:00We hadn't had a really big cyber attack from Iran yet, despite U.S. officials warning about that. Now that's changed pretty dramatically in the last day. This medical device company, Striker, makes all kinds of hospital equipment used across the United States from oxygen masks to cots that ambulances used to wheel patients on, to IV machines, and an Iranian pro-Rong group that we believe, according to my sources, is strongly linked to the Iranian government has conducted a cyber attack that has disrupted almost all of their computer systems at this company. So we have the FBI and other federal agencies scrambling to determine the impact of this, but also hospitals across the country asking the company, should we unplug your equipment? Is it safe? And right now, they are sharing people that yes, it is safe, it is okay, and they're trying to mitigate the damage, but we still don't really know the broader fallout wolf. I obtained a message that the Maryland Emergency Medical Services Agency sent to hospitals in Maryland yesterday

1:01saying we think that the machine that is used to transmit data from ambulances to hospitals is down, so we need to do that manually. If you're an ambulance provider, you need to get on the radio and say, this is what's happening. So this is a real world impact that U.S. officials had warned about, and we're still getting a real understanding of the broader fallout wolf. And police say a suspect is dead after ramming a car into a synagogue that also has a school. The county sheriff says the suspect was armed with a rifle explosives in the vehicle as well, according to emergency responders who searched the back of the car. According to the sheriff, one security guard was injured, nobody else inside the synagogue or school was heard. And before we begin, I want to send our love to the Michigan Jewish community and all of the people in Detroit, the triad area, following the attack on the Jewish synagogue early today. And I've been briefed, fully briefed. And it's a terrible thing, but it goes on.

2:05We're going to be right down to the bottom of it. It's absolutely incredible that things like this happen. Genia, we're learning that two people were injured and a gunman is dead after a shooting inside an academic building at Old Dominion University. CNN's Ryan Young is joining us now. Ryan, what are you learning? Yeah, Boris, the all clear has been given on campus. Two people, though, are in critical condition. And the shooter is dead, Old Dominion University and no foot Virginia says the shooting started on campus around 10.49 this morning. The shooting happening at the constant hall. And we're waiting for a news conference right now to update us on exactly what happened, but there is still a large police presence there. And as you can imagine, a lot of students there are shaken by the shooting to go listen. And as I was sitting, I'll point probably about 30, 30 or so people ran in through the front door, web center, screen bench, shooter, gun. So by that time, we did everybody I was in the center, this left straight out the front door, we ran down the road. My heart dropped.

3:06I didn't know it really knows what was going on. I just know I had to leave immediately. So it was pretty scary at that point because I didn't know really what was going on or how close the threat was. So it was terrifying. I just knew I had to leave from the direction everybody was running. Yeah, boys, we still have several teams working on the details of this. We know the ATFs on scene and we're looking waiting for a news conference that updates on this. Let's not forget two people in critical that gunman now dead. The latest retaliation from Iran, it's been this wave of attacks on tankers and energy supplies to the region. All these images of tankers on fire, stunning as they are, we continue to see that. And the new Supreme Leader in that message that you said, which I'm holding here, it's quite extensive, purportedly from him, vowing to keep the straight of war mues that vital shipping lane closed. There are major questions today after the new Supreme Leader released this statement that is purportedly from him because obviously we haven't seen him, as you said, Boris. Iranian state media actually read,

4:08Mahatab al-Humanez alleged words allowed. So they read the entire statement here. I'm just going through, you know, I guess depends on what font size you have, but one, two, three, four, five and a half pages. He calls, talks about the blood of martyrs. He talks about keeping the straight of war mues closed and also interestingly, thanks the fighters of the resistance front and other countries, a very clear reference to other militias that have now begun fighting on Iran's behalf. Now, Humanez himself was reportedly injured in the strike that killed his father and other family members. And he details in here, which family members. He says, died, but he also mentions in here that according to this purportedly from him, I had the honor of visiting his body after his martyrdom referring to his father. But then at oddly says, I heard that his un-injured hand was clenched in a fist. Just sort of an odd thing, whether that's a translation or whether he didn't see it himself a bit unclear. Dominion University in Virginia, that shooting left one person dead, two injured,

5:09two of the victims, were members of the university's ROTC program. The shooter is also deceased. Our colleague, Kendallynian, is reporting that the suspect is a U.S. citizen and a forming army service member who pled guilty in October of 2016 to attempting to provide material support to ISIS. He served 10 years in prison. My colleague, Kendallynian, is joining us now to tell us what he has learned about this. Ken? Nicole, we're just learning these details, but a federal, official familiar with the matter has identified Muhammad Baylor Jello as the shooter in this old Dominion incident, which killed one and injured two others, and the gunman himself also killed in this incident. And as you said, he pled guilty in 2016 to essentially engaging in an ISIS-sponsored terrorism plot. He engaged with undercover FBI agents and confidential human sources, after becoming radicalized.

6:09He was born in Sierra Leone. He served in the U.S. Army National Guards. We lived in the United States for a long time, but then he said he became radicalized through online propaganda, got entangled with ISIS folks and then got caught up in this FBI sting. And he was sentenced to 11 years in prison in 2017. There's no parole in the federal system, but it looks like he served most of that sentence. You get a discount for good behavior, but he was released, according to federal prison records in December 2024. After that, we don't know what happened to him, and we don't know to what extent the FBI was keeping tabs on him, but they clearly were not today, because today they're now saying he carried out this horrific attack at Old Dominion University on a day of violence in the United States. And it really does underscore the threat picture right now in the United States. I made an uptick in ISIS activity clearly, and response to people by people sympathetic to Iran as the United States goes war with Iran.

7:11And also underscores the difficult posture that the FBI finds itself in, with hundreds of experienced counterterrorism agents having left in the last year and not been replaced. And we've all of us who follow the FBI have been wondering whether there would be an impact to that. And now we're seeing what looks clearly like a gap, something that should have been caught that was not. This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies, because we're going medieval on these people. Here's how I got a free shot on all these networks lying about the people, the people who had a belly full of it. I know you don't like hearing that. I know you tried to do everything in the world to stop, but you're not going to stop, but it's going to happen. And where do people like that go to share the big line? Mega media. I wish, in my soul, I wish, that any of these people had a conscience. Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?

8:11If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved. War Room, here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. It's Thursday, 12th March, or 12th March, or 2026. So, two hits today, one from Muhammad, a Jello. Now, how does a guy gets 11 years get out in a three during the Biden regime? I mean, this has to be investigated. The guy's put away. Oh, and he's radicalized online. I'm not buying any of that. I'm sure there's a lot more than online people radicalizing him. Also, the situation is going to be a press conference at six. We will cover it in the second part of our show, but when you're now what, four hours into this, and we haven't released the name of the individual, if it was a Trump supporter, and they were wearing a MAGA ball cap,

9:12you would have headed up in 10 minutes, the name up in 10 minutes, and their entire social media. Once again, FBI, et cetera, always treats people like idiots, always suppressing this information. And the one in Detroit, obviously driving a truckload of explosives, look later, trying to do much, much more damage, where we got to get to the bottom of this, is certainly this conflict is expanding, where a lot to cover there. Scott Bessent, just with the Wall Street Journal, given interview, he said the straits are open are not at least not mine. I shouldn't say they're open because Chinese flagged vessels are getting out. Okay, note to send Com in the Joint Chiefs of Staff and Pete over to Department of War, why are we allowing Chinese flagged vessels to transit through the straits of her moves, if American and others related to our side of the football, can't why are we allowing them

10:12to take oil out to the Chinese Communist Party? We should cut the Chinese Communist Party is not a friend, they're an existential threat. There are a lot of people making a thing where this is so amazing because this is strategically going after the Chinese Communist Party. No, that was not what this was about and don't fool yourself. However, it has major benefits to those of us that want to keep the main thing, the main thing, it's Captain James Finnell tells us that both Venezuela and the Mulas and the Itolla have always been close to the Chinese Communist Party. They kind of have the same outlook on humanity, let's say that. Plus, the deal they had, they took it in Chinese currency. So it was a way, this was the central lead off to breaking the dollar as the Prime Reserve currency. It was their starter. They're going to do a 40-year deal or 20-year deal, an output deal that's going to be taken in the Chinese currency

11:12and they would take the currency risk to hedge that out. Why are we allowing, I understand 11 million barrels, I think has been reported, 11 million barrels of oil under Chinese flagships or these gray ships hanging in China has exited why. There shouldn't be a drop. If the Itolla is saying not a drop of oil, if the new Itolla is threatening us, putting drones out there, sinking other ships, making it so the United States Navy saying, hey, they can't even begin to escort until the end of March. So obviously there's a problem and our quote-unquote allies in UAE and Qatar and Saudi Arabia are saying, hey, we need your help here. And the Itollis is over and over again. Not one drop of oil is going to leave the straits of her moves. Okay, I got it. But then why are we allowing Chinese oil to be designated

12:12to our greatest enemy to exit? Just quarantine it, block it, turn it around, say, hey, head back or seize it and take it. They're an ally of the muleus. If we're in war for shooting, if we have young men and women in harm's way, then you got to start, and if Russia is providing them targeting information, which I understand there are, although Putin is telling Steve that we're calling others, we're not doing it, but the intelligence service ought to get to the bottom of it. And if Russia is doing it, then there ought to be, we ought to have issues with Russia. If the Chinese, we know the Chinese are allies of the muleus in the Itollis, hence they're sending out oil with Chinese flagships, not one should go. I'm glad Scott's mentioning that, hey, it doesn't look like it's mine because they're letting out their allies' ships and just not letting out our ships. If it gets to be, why don't we turn a five-inch 54 or hit them with a surface,

13:13the surface missile or get one of those fast attack submarines and let's put a couple of shots in their hall and let's sink that outside the straits of her moves. Either at war, you're not at war. And I think it's quite confusing why we're allowing the Chinese Communist Party the biggest sponsor and basically the entity that still funds the cash. Two things we ought to do this afternoon. If we're going to be at war, let's seize all the financial assets in the pirate COVID-19 Influencer Capital, former Influencer Capital of the known world. Let's seize their assets how you did it to Russia. Let's seize their assets here. At least, freeze them so they can't get access to them. So they can't get around the sanctions by going to the pirate of the UAE. Oh, that's right. Another ally. Lindsay, after five bourbon and branches,

14:13is saying, hey, we'll give you a defense contract in perpetuity, but you got to stop double dealingness. That's him saying it. Not the war room. You got to stop double dealingness. You got to stand up. Let's just find out who's on our side of the football and who's not. Since it looks like we might be there for a couple of more days. All Chinese oil should be stopped. Seas are sent to the bottom of the Gulf of Oman. How about that? And seize their assets. Let's see how tough they are if they ain't got the money to continue this. Gotta be gloves off. Short commercial break back to the war room in a moment. Think about this. In 2006, $20,000 equaled roughly 33 ounces of gold at spot prices. At today's prices, those 33 ounces of gold

15:14will be worth $165,000. Smart Americans diversify a portion of their savings into precious metals. And that's why you need to consider buying gold from my friends at Birch Gold Group. For thousands of years, gold has been a store of wealth. And today, it is a crucial part of any balanced strategy. Even better. Birch Gold can help you convert an existing IRA or 401K into a tax-sheltered retirement account in gold. Just text my name, Bannon, B-A-N-N-O, into the number, 9898, 9898, to receive your free info kit on gold. There's no obligation. Just useful information. With an A-plus rating with the Better Business Bureau and tens of thousands of happy customers, let Birch Gold help you diversify with gold. Now, that's peace of mind. Text Bannon to 9898, 9898 again.

16:14My name, Bannon, B-A-N-N-O-N, to the number, 9898, 9898, do it today. For real, here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. Okay. We're going to have, um, Phillip Patrick is going to join us later. The Tina Peters team is going to, uh, join us later, breaking news on Tina Peters. They're going to join us later. There is supposed to be a press conference on this, at least the attack in Detroit. Maybe it's going to be both. That schedule for 6 p.m. Eastern daylight time. We're going to cover that. Of course, we're hearing now maybe delayed. Benny Ray Harmony was in the East Wing for this event. That women's history. We're going to go to hurt momentarily. But I've got, uh, Ryan Matthew Nehouse with us right now. First off, sir, your political strategist, um, your thoughts, your thoughts so far of our war in Iran and where do we stand? And what do you think? What do you think

17:14the political temperature is? Because I keep seeing influencers paid by a certain government that continued to send out tweets saying, you know, 99.99% of the American people support these strikes. Your thoughts, sir. Yeah, I can tell you as someone who lives in a little town far outside of DC. I, I commute away to get in when I come into town. There's a lot of people who don't understand what we're doing right now. I think, uh, you know, your comments earlier before we joined the segment of, we got to decide if we're in the war or we're not, right? What are we going to do? Are we going to start sinking Chinese, uh, oil tankers down into the bottom of the ocean or not? Are we going to allow you to understand what our objectives are? I think we need to decide if we're actually in this or not, because it's causing one, a lot of confusion for the average American who doesn't truly understand what our objectives are. I think the administration can really improve in that respect. And then too, you know, if American lives are going to be put on the line, you know, there's moms and debts who are going to lose sons and daughters, and they got to understand what it's for and why it's worthwhile.

18:15And our soldiers who have signed up for this conflict, you want them to be motivated and believe and what they're sacrificing their lives for. And without a true articulation of what that good is and what its objective is and why it's in the interest of the average American, I don't think this is going to bode well for the Republican party if it continues for much longer. Republican party in the country. We know today that there was a terrorists and ISIS, so he's not, don't believe he's Shiite. But he's, he got 11 years in prison for other nefarious activities, other crimes before he got out in three. We still don't understand that. So we know it's spreading. That just wasn't a random event. I'm sure we haven't heard the details about this and to this press conference because I'm sure this is somehow tied to at least, I don't know, sleeper cells are just people, their people run it

19:15right into the sound of the guns. Caroline Levitt was very adamant today. She came out and said that ABC's got to retract the story about California about maybe there's been enough terrorists go through the cartels and maybe they're working together and it may be targeting California. She said that's not right. Lies got to be retracted. We now know also item for Campbell Kentucky. Looks like some guys walked off out of for Campbell the home of the 101st. Airborne that they walked out with a couple of drones. My whole point is that this gets more complicated every day. Not less complicated. And now we're in it. And I think everybody is bitching and moaning about how you got in. Boom, boom. I got that. And there's so many questions about that in a time and place for that debate. But we're in it now. And we have young men and women in harm's way. We got to figure out how we're going to win this thing. We can't take a career or Vietnam or a global war in terror. We can't let the valor of our arms and the heroism of our troops

20:16and the magnificent of our magnificence of our military be squandered. And so that's why when I hear Scott Besson, we heard the other day 11 million barrels had gone through the streets of her moves on Chinese flagships because they're letting them through. And then, you know, today Scott confirms that he was making the case. Hey, the things not mine because the Chinese flags are getting through. So the opposition here is targeting people on our side of the football. We'll look. They get cash to do this from two sources. They get cash from getting around the sanctions, which are pretty stiff. They get around the sanctions because they have the ability to get cash in and out of Dubai, which I as I told you other days like Tortuga for Captain Morgan and the pirates down in the Caribbean that gave the middle finger to the Roll Navy. Well, that's what the banks in Dubai are. Your great ally there in UAE. And hey, MBZ is as good as you got. He's the best there and punches way above his weight.

21:16But look, you still got the assets flown in and there. And you get in the cash from the Chinese camera's party because they're paying for the oil. So hey, if we're putting pilots in jeopardy flying over targets, if we've got sailors out there and they're worried about their job, you know, they're going to be able to get the cash from the Chinese camera's party because they're paying for the oil. And they're worried about these missiles coming out. And you're having now these Navy can't give a cheery eye to the Commander-in-Chief. Say, yes, I'll get some combatants on these tankers like tonight to transit into the Straits of Hormuz. That's got to take place at the end of March because the Navy needs some time to get ready for it. I tell people it ain't going to it ain't the tanker wars the 80s is much more complicated today. If we're putting young men and women, which are really the treasure of our country, we're going to be able to get the cash from the Navy in Hormuz way in this thing. Then you've got to pull out all stops. Cut their cash off. And if it upsets the Chinese camera's party, tell them to go screw themselves. Suck on that. You know, start, start

22:16backing us and not them. You know, maybe we'll figure out how you buy it from Texas. Anyway, Ryan, as we're fighting this, we've got to we're fighting on another political front. And that's the Save America Act. Tell me about your, because now, you know, the Corning Thune ever since Matt Bull and Caroline ran in the Paxen campaign and Paxen doing a sacrificial hell drop out if Corning does this and you pass it. Now they're all running around. They're all, you know, Corning is like Kevin Carl Rove, right? Opeds for him. He's all for this. The filibuster get rid of it and standing filibuster. You're getting so much smoke in the Faga political war here. Want me through the Save America Act. And how important is it and how we're going to really force these dead beats in the Seas Let's face it, they're just a group of most of them. You got a handful of good ones. You got Schmidt and Hawley and a couple mic Lee. You got a couple of good ones. But most of them like Corning are just going to

23:16double deal you all the time. So how do we do this? Yeah. I mean, first off, Steve, what a brilliant move by Paxen putting Corning in a pretzel like that. I've loved seeing, you know, one of the biggest rhinos in the United States Senate squirm for the last couple of days trying to get the endorsement of President Trump, who he's, you know, for years now, worked against with gun control bills and other immigration type deals that are just antithetical to the Magga voting base what we want. But the Save Act is one of the most important bills in the United States Congress right now. I worked for Senator Michael Lee at the time of its introduction. I was his legislative director. The Save America Act has taken some evolution sense, but to explain it plainly, it creates voter and election security. At a time when in 2020, the nation was wondering and questioning how secure actually is this presidential election? It would require, you know, citizenship verification, it would require voter ID verification, which is just a

24:16very common sense policy proposal. In fact, I believe some of the most recent polls say that nearly nine and ten Americans think that there should be, you know, a common sense of voter verification in elections. So, you know, I think it's, it's of the utmost importance as we had into our midterms that the country know that their elections are secure and that only Americans are determining the outcome of American elections. They're using the excuse that it's too complicated that that Mike Lee hasn't done a good enough job of focusing on this, that they don't really have an idea of how they're going to add a memo. It's going to be complicated. Everybody's got to be there. Everybody's got to be there. Do their job. What about these structural issues that they say it's just too complicated? My point is, and through and keeps saying, I don't have the votes. I don't have the votes. Hey, dude, you're the leader. Go find the votes. The reason you're the leader is socially able to find votes. Go find the votes. Go force people to vote for

25:16this. And then you figure out how it's going to be done because there couldn't be anything better for us in a tough climate. And it's quite tough to force the Democrats, like Trump did at the state of the Union, force the Democrats to stand up. And for two or three weeks around the clock, have to defend while they're comfortable with illegal alien invaders voting in our elections, sir. Look, I have no apologies for any complications that the Senate might face. They signed up from one of the hardest jobs in the world to be the United States senator. So when somebody complains about the complications of process or procedure or, you know, the navigating the debate and trying to find the votes, like, grow up, that's what you signed up for as the United States senator. You signed up to navigate complex issues and find complex solutions. The problem with this, and I laid it out in a tweet last night that I think garnered a little bit of attention, is that the process that Senator Lee and other great individuals in DC, like Rachel Bovard, who

26:16you guys know has been under show, is the talking filibuster. And the talking filibuster goes back to one of the earliest iterations of, you know, the rules and how the Senate operates. It allows for unlimited debate until, you know, the individuals are exhausted in the Senate, essentially. And then the vote proceeds at 51, which is a simple majority. But senators oftentimes prefer to proceed through what I like to call failure theater. I think failure theater should be a term that every American understands, because senators implement restrictions and obstacles on their own accord to make it so that they can have cover votes or bypass the process that is a little bit more complicated, might take a little bit more work, but actually results in the outcomes that the voters are looking for. And in this case, you know, they're self-imposing this 60 vote threshold on themselves. They could pass this bill at 51. All it takes is a little bit of

27:18strength to sit on the floor and let everyone exhaust themselves until the previous, until the question is called, and the vote proceeds at 51. And we have the majority. The question is, do you have the votes, right? But soon, like the job of someone who served as the whip leader in the Senate, and then someone who is the leader is to find the votes and deliver the votes. We should be cutting deals into a party room, not with Democrats. And it's just, frankly, embarrassing that we're going to spend weeks cutting political ads for consultants instead of delivering wins for Americans. Ryan, we got a bounce. We got 30 seconds. Where do people go to follow you on social media, sir? You can call me at Ryan M. New Health, N-E-U-H-N-R. Thank you, sir. Appreciate you. Great hit. Natalie Winters. We'll join us on the other side.

28:21Okay, can we talk about what's really happening right now? New data shows financial stress is at an all-time high. Millions of Americans are at a breaking point. Dead, maxed out, no extra money, no room to breathe. And this isn't just lower income households anymore. Middle class families are hitting their limits, too. This isn't about reckless spending every day, people are running out of options. So if debt has been weighing on you, you're not alone. And when it comes to debt, waiting usually makes it worse. Interest piles up. Minimum payments keep you stuck. You don't need another loan and you don't need bankruptcy. You need a strategy. That's why I'd like, done with debt.

We have dedicated analytical and tactical support. We are aiding in this investigation throughout the entire time. We will continue to work alongside of our partners and those in the community to find answers. The FBI continues to ask for the public's help and providing any information that could lead us in resolving this investigation. And we remind the public that any detail, no matter how small, could be useful. A collection of those small details may help paint a complete picture. We ask that the public

30:22submit their tips to www.fbi.gov slash ODU shooting. Do you have any questions for me or for my partners here? Yes. Was there a little detail that we know about the shooting? Or how are we able to confirm that this was an act of terrorism? How it was an act of terrorism? I can tell you that we have confirmed reports that prior to him conducting this act of terrorism, he shouted all of our stated all of Akbar. And he was formally a subject of an FBI investigation in material supporting terrorism. Asian, were there explosives in his car? We have no information about any explosives in his car or anywhere else at this time. Did he have one weapon? As far as I know, we only know of one weapon that he had on his person at this time. What kind of aid was he getting to ISIL 10 years ago?

31:24He wanted to conduct a terrorist attack similar to that in Fort Hood, Texas. Is there any mention of that? Is there any mention of the war that would be a raw weapon? None whatsoever. How was he deceased? There were students that were in that room that subdued him and rendered him no longer alive. I don't know how else to say it, but they basically were able to terminate the threat. So he was not shot? He was not shot. He shot three people. Correct. We have information that he shot three people. The one that went to Virginia beat the treatment. Was that person just winged or graced? So I don't have any information at this time about the specific life threatening or not otherwise to the two that are still alive. But at this time, we're respecting the victims

32:25of the shooting. That includes not only the ones that were shot, but all of the people here at ODU, I consider our victims. This is a tragic event. And I do ask that you look at that. You're all part of our community, too. And so I just want to throw that out there, too, to give the respect and the time needed to provide that additional information about the victims. Did you say he was released in 2024? Correct. What was the Bureau's intelligence level and the system? So I don't have any of that information right now. That's because this is an ongoing investigation. After we learned of his name, we confirmed that he was formally a subject of material support to terrorism. Investigation and obviously was sentenced for that. But I don't have any information indicating that he was known or an ongoing problem. Do you have one more question? Do you know what specifics on how he was subdued? Yeah. The brave ROTC members in that room subdued him.

33:25And if not for them, I'm not sure what else he may have done. But that's exactly they confronted him and they subdued him and he was no longer able to conduct any further attack. Thank you. How was lessons? Go ahead. Okay. Are ROTC students involved? Are there any reasons that believe that they were targeted? Well, I believe that at this time we have to take all the information that we will receive from the victims. So I don't want to make any preemptive judgments or anything to this at this time exactly. Keep in mind we're going to look at forensic information. Anything that he may have had interest specifically for any targets. And because I don't have that yet, I can't confirm that at this time. Do you know any people in the classroom? I don't know the exact number of the people in the classroom. How long do you expect this investigation will last?

34:26It's a fair question. It really completely depends. So we obviously are going to dig in, and this is why we need the public support to where he may have been before this, who he may have been in contact with, if he had any other supporters, anybody providing him information. So we have to track every single lead down. And that is exactly what the FBI will do. Every single lead you're going to track down the veracity of the information and make sure that we have a full investigation with, as much information, again, to ensure that there isn't anyone else that he may have been receiving support from, as well. Do you have any evidence that he was self-funded? No. I don't have anything at this time. Thank you, everyone. Okay. Thank you. Natalie and we're bringing in before we play the clip of what you got you here for. But another amazingly informative FBI. Of course, they say he wanted to be, have a Ford hood, Ford hood 2009,

35:27with the radical Muslim major, I think, killed 13. Here, the ROTC, I don't know. Maybe it was just random. I know the FBI wouldn't have a guy under watch that got on 11-year sentence for material support for terrorist organizations here in the United States and served three and he's out on parole or out. And so, this will be another one. Well, we should have done it, but maybe we didn't do it. Your thoughts, ma'am. Well, I think this is a playbook we've seen anytime. There's an event. What was the first question? How are you sure this is an active terrorism? Well, he said, all of you off far. I think that's pretty cut and drive. Thank you to the legacy media for clarifying that. They, of course, never asking the real questions, which Americans not just. In that state at that university, but I think across the country, care about, which is the direct linkage of attacks like this to what's going on in the Middle East, right? I think the reason why

36:27Americans dislike these forever wars. Obviously, we're not there at that moniker yet, but it's not just because they're forever. It's the war aspect, right? It's kicking the horn its nest. It's the second, third, and fourth order effects, whether you see it in the form of refugee waves or like this, right? Homegrown, whatever you want to call it, whatever label you want to slap on it. Terrace, why like refugee type style individuals with links to known terrorist groups are still allowed to be in this country. And it seems like our refugee admissions processes prioritize those that have connections to countries with deep ties to terrorist organizations. It's beyond me. It's almost like they're trying to intentionally embed sleeper cells here. I think if you were to reverse engineer an ideal immigration policy favored by ISIS or al-Kaeda, it probably would be what we saw under Joe Biden. But this is like the left's horrible nightmarish policies. But I guess to them, it's there, you know, what dream coming together and seeing what is it? Conflict in the Middle East where we can't even really be sure of who's actually in this country because we have no known

37:27record and of the available records that we have of people who came into this country. It's hundreds of people who are on the known terrorist list. It's hundreds of people from the Middle East. And it's, you know, diversity visa lottery programs and chain migration systems that I think actually have a lot of people that I think actually incentivize people with ties to terrorist organizations, probably in the name of diversity coming into this country. Let's play your clip. And then when I get into your your sub-stack analysis, let's go and play it. Al-Arming signs of population movement are really emerging, particularly in Lebanon and across the border into Syria. And Lebanon, the evacuation orders have seen over 90,000 people displaced as this morning, the number is projected to be highest. Many people have already been forced from their homes, adding a pressure to a region that is experiencing one of the largest displacement crisis globally. Prior to the escalation, more than 19 million people across the Middle East were internally displaced

38:27in due to conflict, violence and disasters. The largest number remains in Sudan, Syria, and in Yemen with significant displaced populations also in Iraq and Libya. Any further escalation of course, risk-driggering in new wave of displacement and humanitarian needs across multiple countries. IOM has joined other U emergencies in declaring emergency scale-up to enable coordination and rapid response. Ultimately, the escalation is essential, protecting civilians, including migrants and displaced people and ensuring respect of international humanitarian low must remain a priority to prevent further human suffering. Okay, Natalie, explain what I just heard because it sounds massive, and it sounds like it's very, very mutual important of what's going on, yet nobody's writing about it, except nobody's talking about it, ma'am. Yeah, talk about a varied lead. I think there's two phrases in there. One, triggering new wave of humanitarian crises and the U.S. and the U.S. and the U.S. and the U.S. and the U.S.

39:27and the U.S. and the U.S. and the U.S. and the U.S. and the U.S. and the U.S. and the U.S. and the U.S. speak, that's not a good sign for the American people. Wow. But more importantly, there was a phrase, and that was the idea of this emergency scale-up, which you're seeing happening right now at the hands of the international organization for migration that's hosted in the U.N. Of course, the U.N. HCR, the kind of refugee apparatus, too, is also interested in deploying assets into the region and around the region. But what's really interesting, that guy who was speaking was speaking about Lebanon, in the first week of the crisis alone, there were 700,000 people displaced just in that one country where there was more readily available data. The U.N. has also been flagging that there's been a lot of movement of people back or newly into Afghanistan, which I think when you talk about where exactly these people can flee at least in the interim before they, you know, set their sites on the west, either through Turkey

40:27or who knows what kind of NGO subsidized programs, it's very concerning, I think, to see people compiling there. But there's just new numbers coming out of the U.N. today, showing that since the start of the conflict, there's around 3.2 million people who have been displaced in Iran, particularly in Tehran, coming from there, fleeing the city. It's unclear where exactly they're going. I also think it's important to kind of link this to the press conference that you just played. The DHS was circulating an internal memo, where they were talking about, you know, several thought-wise that have been declared against the United States. They describe it as a critical incident note. I'll read the actual quote, saying, Iranian religious leaders issue thought-wise calling on Muslims to avenge Supreme Leader's death. They call the U.S. and Israel the most wicked enemies of humanity and that it urges followers worldwide to take revenge if I were the DHS. I wouldn't have, you know, had the story be a leak from some employee. I think this should have been posted from

41:27the front and center and made a big deal. But look, Steve, I think the point here is, right, when you talk about the second and third order effects of what we're doing in the region, I think the American people can best understand it through, you know, impending refugee waves, which don't even take my word for it. You know, people who are monitoring the flows of people are saying that this could be the largest refugee wave in modern history, right, Iran is a population of 90 million people and you're spilling over into the broader region as a whole. Thank God, you President Trump, who is not signal that they're going to be soft on refugee admissions. But I think this is not a conflict that's going to subside, you know, in the next few weeks, this is going to be long-term population movement and probably damaged to the West. What was the 19 million number? What was in context? What was, is that what happened in Syrian Civil War and others? Or is that what they're projecting here? 19 million displacement of people looking to move on to other territories?

42:27So that's the, that's the number that Joe Biden would have wanted to amend to the country. No, that's the number of people in the region right now who are currently displaced or refugees. I guess internally displaced people is the new term for refugee. Maybe it's too loaded of a term now. But those are people they are saying, you know, can't live in their place of birth or residence for whatever reason. But I do think the trend of people returning to Afghanistan is something that's quite interesting. And I will say, for all the reporting that the UN is doing on this, there's been a bismole to zero coverage, of course, from legacy media talking about the impacts of people movement, which I think is quite interesting. Natalie, hang on. I want to hold you through the break because I want your take on Secretary Treasury Scott Besson's comments about Chinese CCP flag ships getting through the straits of her moves. Secretary Besson was saying, hey, I'm not

43:27so sure this thing is mined because we are seeing Chinese flag ships getting through carrying oil to the Chinese Communist Party. Short commercial break back in the warm in a moment. We will break through the rock on. We rejoice with the no more. Let's take down the CCP. Fellow patriots, the Federal Reserve has portrayed America for over a century, printing fiat in inflating away your savings, serving globalist masters. But President Trump is ending it. President Trump is wielding a 112-year-old law to reclaim control over the rogue Federal Reserve. He's replacing Jerome Powell, slashing rates, and igniting America's re-industrialization. This isn't theory. Government-backed industry plus low rates, unleashes super cycles. History repeats. The golds are already exploding. Miners are up 400 percent in the last year. What Rickards is calling Trump's gift is wealth

44:28for American patriots. Not global handouts. Now it's America's turn. Gold to 27,000 in the coming years. Jim Rickard's CIA and Pentagon veteran says act now. Go to insider2026.com that's insider2026.com to get Jim Rickard's strategic intelligence newsletter today. Here's your host, Stephen K-Ban. Okay, let's put the C-PAC $17 off for four days at C-PAC.

So you get to meet everybody and see the show's live and do many other

45:28things we're going to have planned. Birch Gold. Phillip Patrick. Supposed to join us in the second hour. We are going to go to the press conference up in Detroit. So we'll go there. We just saw the press conference down in O.D.U. That was not protected. We're going to go there. We're going to go there. We're going to go there. We're going to go there. We're going to go there. We're going to go there. What we're going to do is come back to our press conference down in OD. That was not particularly enlightening. Hopefully Detroit. Be better understand now there's a bunch of first responders. They've somehow gotten ill. And we'll find out what that's about at Detroit. This thing's a mess. in the economic war here. Speaking the economic war, Natalie G. Winters, you cut your teeth and our expert on the Chinese Communist Party and all of their unrestricted warfare against us. Please tell me why are we allowing Chinese flag ships

46:28to exit the Straits of Hormuz when the Iatola, maybe a guy now with one leg is sitting there reigning at the United States and our allies to say not one drop of oil will exit, ma'am. Well, Steve, I think it's kind of the same answer why haven't we meaningfully taken on the Chinese Communist Party in ways that actually matter here in Washington, DC. I'd also flag, I think, in addition to watching and tracking oil prices, all that kind of stuff, that the rare earth question, I think, is something that's very relevant not just to the defense industrial-based questions that you're seeing be debated quite heavily now. I don't necessarily know if the answer to that is to quadruple the resources to the defense primes that sort of put us in the shortage problem to begin with. I was reading the South China Morning Post and a lot of kind of more Chinese state media to get a sense of what they thought about the new Iatola. And they seem to think that he will actually be more favorable to the Chinese Communist Party, not by orders of magnitude,

47:30but younger, more open, more likely to collaborate. But I think that the lens through which I view this, taking the specifics out of it, I think, your commentary on the best end of the Navy get there involved, when I think is quite enlightened. But I think looking at those through the lens of the Thucydides trap idea whereby this kind of regional or smaller scale conflict can kind of get kicked up to the level of an actual global power struggle, something like you're seeing go down in the streets of Formuz, like you were talking about, do buy or these other Gulf nations have to sort of pick a side. I think is a very interesting, and frankly, I think more relevant to the kind of geopolitical world order as we know it. Question as opposed to just myopically looking at the Middle East as a region, right? Because the United States sort of looks like they're the system disruptor, whereas China's coming and stabilizing, calling for de-escalation. But it kind of fuses the Middle East into the,

48:30I think, purview of US-China competition. And I think barreling towards the forthcoming summit, I think this adds a layer of complexity that I think it's a kind of reductive view to take it as, oh, the PRC, CCP leaders are gonna be really intimidated by America's show of force in the region. Perhaps that's why they stopped there, you know, air incursions over Taiwan, or is it because they're planning something bigger? Again, we don't know. I don't have the intel reports, but I think you have to factor in, like I was saying not just the kind of oil question, but the rare earth shortages, right, some of the reasons why we're so behind on producing, whether it's, you know, the THAAD batteries, missiles take your pick is because we just don't have, not necessarily the raw materials, but the refinement capabilities, which of course are a really bottlenecked in China. And I think that's the real question, and I think when you talk about, you know, the leveraging of American military might, whether it's in the streets of Hormuz, to ensure the flow of oil,

49:32I think you also have to compound that with the question of American military might, in other regions where you have a significant effect, not just I think in the US dollar, but confidence in the American-led world order, right, when you're seeing these THAAD batteries be pulled from South Korea, are European allies not necessarily backing us as they've been courting and being courted by the Chinese. You're seeing a lot of our, you know, Asian allies, I think fret a little bit by seeing America, perhaps go back to its, you know, kind of, not hawkish, but just say, a deja vu sense of returning and restoring all of our capabilities to the Middle East. So I think that what Bassin is saying is good. I think we should use power to advance American interests, but I think that to just focus on the streets of Hormuz, I think sort of is a small point in a much bigger picture that, like I said, risks. I mean, it perhaps it's already underway, but really I think kind of reifying in a kinetic action way, what you see with the Thucydides trap of some smaller conflict sparking a bigger global power struggle.
