What threats are Islamic jihadis posing in Texas?

Unknown 0:08

Islamic jihadis are plotting against you. Why in the hell you think they're in Houston and in north of Dallas? They are working together to overthrow Western civilization. Sharia compounds, which are areas governed by religious rules. We know who you are, we know what you are, and we know what you're trying to accomplish, and it is not going to happen in the jewel of the crown of the union of this republic. We purge any attempt to impose Sharia law in Texas. They are not coming. They are already here. You are not here properly, and you're going to leave. On the 3rd of March, Sharia law goes on the ballot in the state of Texas.

How is Sharia law being addressed in Texas legislation?

Unknown 0:50

The United States Constitution and Sharia are fundamentally at odds with one another. We're going to tell them, take your Sharia law and shove it. Islam will never dominate the United States, and by the grace of God... As Texas goes, so goes the nation. As the nation goes, so goes the world. Are you prepared to fight for this state? Are you prepared to fight for your country?

Stephen K. Bannon 1:20

War Room, Texas. Your host, Stephen K. Bannon. Starts right now. It's Monday, 12 January, in the year of our Lord, 2026. We start now, War Room, Texas. It will go at least up to March, I don't know, 3rd, 4th, or 5th. The primary in Texas is the 3rd. And on the ballot is a proposal to ban Sharia law. We're going to be covering that in detail of experts that know exactly what's going on in Texas, why it's important, and what can be done about it. I'm joined by Debbie Jurgadas, who's a national committee woman for the RNC from the state of Texas. Debbie, you've been one of the ones that have kind of led this movement up to now to really drive this to people's attention. Tell us exactly in your assessment what is going on in Texas.

Debbie Jurgadas 2:10

In Texas, we've had over the last year, and actually now that we're paying attention to it, it's been much longer than a year, but a noticeable growth in a large number of Islamic communities forming for the first time, seemingly trying to create no-go zones, and a large number of Islamic schools, Islamic mosques, Islamic centers. All of these mean just a very much enhanced Islamic presence in Texas, really just in very recent years. And it came to the attention of many people because one of the areas which became, do you know, it's epic, East Plain Islamic Center purchased, I think it's 420 acres and planned a Muslim-only community. But that's just a piece of it. But what the imam in charge up there, Yasir Qadhi, did on YouTube was telling people, hey, we're going to have inviting Muslims to come and try to live there because they were going to essentially have a closed off Muslim-only community.

Debbie Jurgadas 3:05

And because he spoke up so boldly, there was a lot of pushback and a lot of attention to it. So there's that piece of it. There are two members of the Texas legislature who are by background Pakistani Muslims who've been pushing a series of legislative proposals, resolutions and legislative proposals, all of which are incrementally forcing or spreading Sharia, Islamic law, and say Sharia is just inconsistent with the American constitution, inconsistent with the structure of government in America. So there's a legislature, there's a growth of schools, there's a growth of communities. And other organizations, which we may get into later today, I don't know, but radical organizations are now headquartering themselves, radical Islamic organizations headquartering themselves in Texas.

Debbie Jurgadas 3:58

And it has become an issue of major concern because many people in Texas pay attention to what's happening in London and throughout the UK and France and Austria and Germany and the Netherlands. They pay attention and watch this kind of Islamic sweep into those countries. And they really are.

What is the significance of the March 3rd ballot proposal?

Debbie Jurgadas 4:16

has become a battle to hold on to Western civilization and their structure of laws and government and the Islamic culture and way of life and its structure of Sharia law that just are incompatible. So many Texans are watching that and trying to preempt that from occurring here.

Stephen K. Bannon 4:36

So Debbie, a couple of things have happened that have been extraordinary.
