WAR ROOM FIELD REPORT — SOUTH KOREA
From the front lines of geopolitical struggle and democratic erosion, Steve Bannon convened a critical panel on the WarRoom program, Tuesday eventing, featuring Ambassador Morse H. Tan (Ret.), Colonel John Mills (Ret.), and Colonel Grant Newsham (Ret.) to deliver a no-holds-barred briefing on the escalating crisis in South Korea. What emerged was a battlefield report—of stolen ballots, compromised sovereignty, and a looming confrontation with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
The Election That Shook the Peninsula
Ambassador Tan led with a jarring assessment: South Korea has just experienced the largest election fraud operation in its history. Eyewitness reports and data gathered by citizen activists indicate massive irregularities—pre-printed ballots discovered in large piles, pristine “vote dumps” in the dead of night, and vote totals that defy even elementary math. “This was Fulton County on steroids,” Tan declared, referencing the U.S. 2020 election controversies. He added, "We are seeing a replay of political warfare—this time outsourced to Seoul by the CCP.”
President Yoon’s Gambit and the Martial Law Flashpoint
President Yoon, elected by a razor-thin margin, was under constant assault from a legislature dominated by leftist forces accused of collaborating with the CCP. His ability to govern was effectively paralyzed—no budget, endless impeachment attempts, and constant obstruction. In a last-ditch effort, Yoon declared martial law just weeks ago, hoping to gain access to South Korea’s election servers and awaken the public to what he believed was a legislative dictatorship. Though short-lived, his move ignited widespread protests and inspired a new wave of youthful resistance.
A Silent U.S. Government and Strategic Abandonment
Bannon pressed the panel repeatedly: "Did any official in the U.S. government speak out?” The answer was a unified, sobering “No.” Neither professional diplomats nor political appointees in Washington said a word, despite overwhelming evidence and on-the-ground reports. "The U.S. State Department treats this like hard-nosed politics—not the subversion of democracy by foreign-backed operatives,” Mills stated. Newsham echoed: "They won’t act. They didn’t in 2020, and they won’t now.”
The panel expressed deep concern that South Korea is being handed over, strategically and ideologically, to Beijing. Lee Jae-myung, the new leftist leader, has publicly expressed sympathy toward China’s ambitions regarding Taiwan. The panel warned that the CCP now sees an open flank: with South Korea destabilized and Taiwan isolated, invasion may be imminent.
Resistance: Young, Determined, and Leaderless—For Now
Despite the bleak backdrop, hope remains. Ambassador Tan spoke movingly about the young people, college students, and seasoned legal professionals who have taken up the fight. "They have the grit, the faith, the passion,” he said. "We’ve met them. We’ve seen them. They are not giving up.” Bannon pressed: "Is this the Korean version of 2021 America? Will they drive the guide-on into the hill and rally?” The panel nodded in agreement—South Koreans may have no choice but to lead their own resistance without U.S. government support.
A Nation at the Brink—What’s Next?
With the CCP allegedly entrenched in South Korea’s political system, the future looks perilous. Colonel Mills predicted that Lee Jae-myung may soon demand the withdrawal of the 25,000–30,000 U.S. troops still stationed in South Korea. "It’s either a slow suffocation or a fast asphyxiation,” he warned, suggesting Lee’s regime will seek to formally sever longstanding U.S. security ties.
Final Message from the Panel
This battle is far from over. Ambassador Tan closed with a resolute message: "We’ve seen prayer, sacrifice, and vision from South Koreans that tell us this is not the end. It’s a dark chapter—but not the final one.”
The battlefield is digital, political, and psychological—but the war for Korea’s democratic soul has clearly begun. And while no cavalry may be coming from Washington, the War Room promises this: they will not fight alone.
