What is the threat of Sharia law in Texas?
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.
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?
War Room, Texas, where your host, Stephen K. Bannon, starts right now.
It's Tuesday, 13 January, in the year of our Lord, 2026. Welcome to War Room, Texas. I want to start off with Colonel Keefe Self, Texas 3. Sir, you're McKinney, and I think it's just north of Plano, is that correct? Your district?
Yeah, that's right. It extends from McKinney all the way over to Commerce, so we've got the bulk of Collin and Hunt Counties.
Sir, a couple of things. You're in our opening clip. We've taken a clip of you on the House floor. Why is Sharia law? You went in the well of the House of the most powerful legislative body in world history and said that Sharia law is incompatible with the Constitution of the United States of America, a constitution that you swore to defend as an officer in the United States military. Why is it incompatible in your mind?
Because our very foundation of our ideas of government, which are codified in the US Constitution, are the individual freedom, individual rights, as declared in the Bill of Rights. So we believe in the individual, the collective ideas of every individual. The matters of conscience belong to individuals, not to government. Sharia is anathema to that. Sharia tells you you will submit to Sharia law, most people say, but it's a complete culture. It's a complete civilization that you will submit to. And they intend to dominate, and they dominate cultures that they go into.
How does Congressman Keith Self view the imposition of Sharia law?
Gradually and then suddenly, they dominate cultures. That's what we cannot allow to happen because it is fundamentally anathema, opposed to the U.S. Constitution and our ideas of individual rights.
Colonel, you've got a lot of experience in this as a military officer defending this republic. You were in Iraq and Afghanistan. Talk to us about your journey as a military officer. And also, what did you learn about societies and cultures that are driven by Sharia law?
Well, it goes further than just Afghanistan and Iraq. I was in the embassy in Cairo, Egypt, in the days where women walking around Cairo, very few had on burqas, the hajib. And then I was stationed, or I worked with the IDF in the conflict between Israel and the proxies surrounding it. Then I was in Afghanistan with the J-5 of the Central Command in the early days when the ground command was still in attempt. Even in those early days, it was obvious that Afghanistan was a matter of tribes. It was not a society, and it was ruled by Sharia. Very strict Sharia. In fact, when I was in the Pentagon, I was trying to deal with the stingers that we had given the Mujahideen. So my experience in the Middle East is longer than just those few years.
And then in Iraq, I was actually in Qatar, the country of Qatar, which is basically a family-owned business by the Al-Thani family, who have a tremendous amount of natural gas. But it is totally, most of the workers there are not even Qatari. And you know, Steve, what they're doing to our institutions of higher learning here in the United States. They're funding Sharia indoctrination.
