and do a reset I want to play I want to replay that entire presser because I think it was only a couple of minutes but I think it's got some details in there so as soon as you guys are ready to play it we'll do it I I also have to say Jack I've got a particular problem with the thing about all the agencies working together. As I've said many times, we understand they all work together. We assume you're all together. But I think we just got to get down to the basics. And if we can just put up that photo of the alleged shooter, the one that got wounded and they put in the... They put in the thing. I think that was the alleged shooter, right? I think we put that up. And I'd like to play just what Cash and Mayor Bowser and the assistant head of what DC Metro has to say because I'm not saying there's conflicting information, but even that, it wasn't tight.
Steve Bannon 0:55
It wasn't as tight as you have to have. We don't have it?

How did law enforcement respond to the shooting incident?

Steve Bannon 0:59
No, Jack, right now. Okay, Jack. Oh, yeah, we're going to reset, Jack. We've got a reboot here. What we know from this presser is that they called it a targeted shooting. What happened earlier this afternoon, I think around 2.15 or so, near the Farragut metro station, a shooter came around the corner and opened up. on National Guard elements that were there. They supposedly had weapons. They were shot. At first it was reported by the governor of West Virginia that they had died. What we do know from the presser is that other National Guard individuals got onto the shooter and let him have it. I think the New York Post is reporting five rounds. He was hit by five rounds or took five rounds. The ABC News and CBS, excuse me, CBS News is reporting that there was up to 10 to 15 shots coming from the gunmen, and they said it looked like an ambush situation.
Steve Bannon 2:06
So I don't know if they've got more information than we just heard right there of the targeted information. Do we have this ready to play? I tell you what, we're rebooting Jack Posobiec right now. You're in the 5 o'clock hour of the War Room.

What statements were made by officials during the press conference?

Steve Bannon 2:20
We obviously had a very different show ready for you on the eve of Thanksgiving. But this is actually an emergency in the nation's capital, very near the White House. Let's go ahead. We're going to take it from the top. Let's go ahead and replay the presser.
Kash Patel 2:37
My name is Kash Patel, FBI director. We're here to brief you on the tragic events that happened today at approximately 2.15 local time in Washington, D.C., where two of our brave members of the National Guard and the Department of War were brazenly attacked in a horrendous act of violence. They were shot. They're in critical condition. As you can see behind me, we have assembled the full force of both the federal and state and local law enforcement agencies to bring bear all of our resources to make sure we find the perpetrators responsible for this heinous act and make no mistake they will be brought to justice since this is an assault on a federal law enforcement officer this will be treated at the federal level as an assault on a federal law enforcement officer the fbi will lead out on that mission with our interagency partners to include the department of homeland security secret service atf dea and we're thankful for the mayor's
Kash Patel 3:29
assistance in this matter. The Metropolitan Police Department and their skills in investigating homicides and gun shootings in this city is exceptional. We will work together collaboratively because this is a matter of national security, because it's a matter of pride.

What is the condition of the injured National Guardsmen?

Kash Patel 3:44
President Trump has been informed. We've been in contact with the White House. We will shortchange the American public with no resources to make sure we find and safeguard our nation's capital right here in Washington, D.C., and bring anyone responsible for this heinous act of violence to justice. I would lastly like to add to the American public in the world, please send your prayers to those brave warriors who are in critical condition and their families. They are here serving our country. They are here protecting everyday Americans and citizens around the world in our nation's capital.
