'War Game' documentary filmmakers on 'The Takeout' | August 4, 2024

Documentary filmmakers Jesse Moss and Tony Gerber along with retired Marine Capt. Janessa Goldbeck discuss the storylines that inspired the documentary "War Game." The film focuses on how government officials can learn to be better prepared for a Jan. 6 type scenario or worse on Capitol Hill and across the nation.

Just because President Biden admin didn't feel they could participate in the WAR GAME film doesn't mean they aren't prepared for what comes during and after the 2024 election. President Biden's admin unlike Project 2025, are keeping their game plan confidential which frankly is exactly what I'd do. Project 2025 got over confident and played their hand...thank for that Hertitage Foundation. Any good strategist doesn't broadcast their strategy. At least, when I play chesss I don't announce my futures moves, I just play them.

If one studies Game Theory, one understands that the player who always plays by the rules will lose to the player whose strategies vary.

Oh it's going to take place, they are not trying to fool anyone, they are prepping you for what's going to happen.

A lot of us have a family who has bought into the idea that hhe USA is not a democracy at all, but a constitutional republic which is NOT a democracy. It’s especially horrible when it is someone you love.

We are not a pure democracy, but we need to continue as a democratic republic.

[markk]

Ok. Still listening…..
So what does our government do to ensure this war game does not take place for real in Jan 6 2025 ?
And if it does take place what are the safeguards that can be put in place - in every state - to ensure that we can continue our republic in perpetuity ?

[kennethmitchell]

Hate to say it but I hope they try it. I'm confident that safeguards are in place.

Oh ... I thought Peter Watkins would be interviewed. Peter Watkins made the 1964 film "The War Game" for the BBC. It's about a nuclear attack on the UK. The BBC aired it in 1984 ...

[DSGLABEL]

"War Game" the documentary "The Grab" thats whats about to really go down.

[vinandbea]

Didn’t appreciate your interview with RFK Jr.

[kavenavery]

Predictive programming or simulation for what they plan to stage. Like event 201.

Honesty i dont think Kamala could be this calm under pressure like this guy was. At a point you go to easy mode and or shut down. She has too much hatred for trump to not use this as an excuse to shut him down forever. Im certain the actual government in this situation, this miminized version would have more time but also a hundred other direction of issues to manage all at the same time.

All it takes is a single spark to ignite. Im concerned that spark will happen irrespective of this film.

After the election this film will be hot hot hot.

[Jeannie-du]

What we have is a DEMOCRATIC republic. That's important to keep in mind too. 😉

[northernbohemianrealist]

As a Republican and proud NRA member, I am glad that they did this so that we are prepared when Harris and the Democrats try to overturn the election.

LET'S NOT FORGET THIS NEWS OUTLET ONCE RAN DOWN KAMALA HARRIS WORD SALAD AND ALSO CONSIDERED HER INDIAN 😮. TRUE

[JosephMortillaro]

On Flynn I hope and actually believe that he has been serving as a magnet for people who might materialize and approach him for some odd purpose and thus identify themselves. Domestic or foreign. It is a standard practice to put out "fly paper" to get various types to self-identify.

[sagebluebean]

she could leave him if she wanted but she's dumb too

[jamesharless]

Joseph goebells would be proud of this movie. Just watched it and about puked from the propaganda, meanwhile THEY tell you it's non-partisan, and it's surely one sided.
