Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping meet for a second day in China. They reaffirm their country s ties with old friends and powerful allies, unshaken by Russia s ongoing war in Ukraine. But what does Xi get out of this meeting?
00:00:53.120up c1 contracts a balance actually applying some industries
00:00:57.120so we have to utilize of these trades for the sake of master
00:01:01.300more than that or using extreme creative prices
00:01:03.760and banking structures web campaigns uh
00:01:05.920and markets our country as I've mentioned
00:01:08.500it's been said that a bigимер oh the price of the currency
00:01:11.540between our countries are operating mullery and were
00:01:16.440We are for the use of the Chinese yuan in the accounts between the Russian Federation and Asia, Africa, Latin America.
00:01:27.040I'm confident that these forms of accounts will be developed between the Russian partners and their colleagues in the third countries in the yuan.
00:01:38.480All our conversations yesterday and today in the form of TTT-TED, in a very narrow way and with the members of the delegation were successful.
00:01:47.480They passed a warm, friendly, constructive atmosphere.
00:01:59.480counterparts in the mainstream tratament where Russian and Korean relations are yokedmous.
00:02:07.480They are the best of the international partnership and strategic political cooperation.
00:02:16.480Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin meeting again this morning.
00:02:45.920A day after spending hours together reaffirming their country's ties.
00:02:51.160Old friends and powerful allies, unshaken by Russia's ongoing war in Ukraine.
00:02:56.920Xi telling Putin in their first meeting that the way out of what he called the Ukrainian conflict is through negotiations.
00:03:04.860Adding that consolidating and developing Chinese-Russian relations is a strategic choice for China.
00:03:11.160According to an official Chinese summary of the meeting, Putin even mentioning Xi's recent peace proposals as something he would treat with respect.
00:03:20.560That China's leader would make the trip is symbolic for Putin.
00:03:24.360Coming just days after being cited for war crimes by the International Criminal Court.
00:03:33.220Calling for a ceasefire that does not include the removal of Russian forces from Ukrainian territory would effectively be supporting the ratification of Russian conquest.
00:03:42.400The China-Russia relationship is best described as pragmatic.
00:03:46.520Russia has depended on China to get around Western sanctions.
00:03:51.120This Russian truck driver at China's border says no one else wants to be our friends.
00:03:57.220What China gains is a strategic partner and a counterweight against the U.S. and the West.
00:04:02.500Russia actually is fighting indirectly with NATO, which is giving all our support to Ukraine.
00:04:15.300For Xi, backing Russia may be less about Putin winning the war than ensuring he doesn't lose.
00:04:25.440Joining me now is former U.S. Ambassador to Russia and MSNBC International Affairs Analyst Michael McFaul.
00:04:30.560All right, Ambassador, ensuring he doesn't lose.
00:04:34.280The U.S. is worried that President Xi is considering sending lethal aid.
00:04:38.980Can he ensure Vladimir Putin doesn't lose without sending that aid, which would inflame a whole other area of China, Chinese diplomatic relations?
00:04:48.340I don't think so. That's a great question about the future.
00:04:54.200And what's striking about the summit is that Xi Jinping did not provide that military assistance, right?
00:04:59.600Maybe he did quietly, secretly, although we'll be able to figure it out eventually.
00:05:03.740But the idea that he was coming to shore up Vladimir Putin, he gave him the photo op, right?
00:05:08.820What we're looking at right now, that's what Putin got out of this meeting.
00:05:11.900All of this pomp and circumstance, Xi Jinping there supporting him.
00:05:16.180But he didn't get military assistance.
00:05:18.120He didn't get an economic assistance package.
00:05:20.320Remember, the sanctions are having a real effect on high-tech components that Russia needs.
00:06:27.220You see all the mindlessness there on MSNBC, the happy talk.
00:06:33.580It's Tuesday, 21 March, the year of our Lord, 2023.
00:06:37.380If we can tee up the yelling, I'm going to call for that in a second.
00:06:40.460So our enemies, and by the way, the importance of today's, of their meetings today, just to let you read it, this is Putin.
00:06:46.860And I quote, we are in favor of using the Chinese yuan, that's their currency, for settlements between Russia and the countries of Asia, Africa, and Latin America.
00:06:57.580I am confident that these forms of settlement in yuan will develop between Russian partners and their counterparts in third countries.
00:07:06.760Once again, the entire focus of this, and you saw the clown that was one of the ambassadors at one time, right?
00:07:14.280It's the secret agreements they're cutting.
00:07:16.920It's the secret deals they're cutting behind the scenes, and it has full military backup.
00:07:20.980Russia and China right now, the CCP and the KGB kind of doing a merger of gangster elements, gangster gangs, right, working together to control the Eurasian landmass.
00:07:32.340They're going to control the Persian Gulf under this Biden regime, an absolute, absolute debacle.
00:07:37.720I tell you what, I got Liz Herrington standing by.
00:07:40.000All right, so the important news is the economy, global capital markets, and what's happening in Moscow today.
00:07:46.340Of course, we have this tragic sideshow in New York City.
00:07:51.460We're going to get to all that in a second.
00:07:52.560Let's go ahead and play the Janet Yellen.
00:07:53.840I want to say the genius running the Treasury Department.
00:07:56.640Before I bring in Liz, let's hear what Janet Yellen has to say.
00:07:59.540And take an economy that is performing very well.
00:08:05.900We've had the fastest recovery from a downturn that we've ever seen and the fastest recovery of any nation around the globe.
00:08:17.860The unemployment rate is near a 50-year low.
00:08:42.200Liz Herrington, let me bring you in first.
00:08:43.800Before I get your ideas and concepts about what's going on in New York, and then I know you've got some thoughts about Florida and particularly the governor, I want to ask you, you know, the four years of peace and prosperity of President Donald J. Trump seems like a long time ago now when you see that our greatest enemies are all forming and openly working together, talking about plans.
00:09:07.320At the same time, you've got this dumpster fire of an economy, ma'am.
00:09:11.180Well, Steve, it kind of all goes together.
00:09:14.620This is why we don't have time for games and political theater, which is what we'll get to in a minute.
00:09:21.220However, I mean, this is what President Trump's been warning against.
00:09:24.340I mean, you don't push China and Russia together.
00:09:28.380And yet that's exactly what Joe Biden, whoever's really running things, have done.
00:09:34.120And this is going to be a travesty for the world.
00:09:36.820I mean, these are very, very dangerous, perilous times that would never be happening under a strong United States of America, under President Donald J. Trump.
00:09:47.340I mean, the consequences of this, of this pushing, which we've done, which the United States has done, these feckless, illegitimate leaders have pushed China and Russia together.
00:09:57.360The consequences of that are going to be catastrophic.
00:10:01.780And then you have Janet Yellen and the consequences of what they have done to our economy that I can assure you and your audience and the American people know very well.
00:10:25.460That's why we need serious leaders for these serious times.
00:10:28.400And that's why they're trying to take out Donald J. Trump with these phony, phony investigations that are so illegitimate and trying to destroy our country at home.
00:10:39.120You know, I almost take I almost have a problem taking any time of this.
00:10:43.600We've tried to limit the coverage because I don't want to give it any more mindshare because it's it's it's so mindless.
00:10:50.520I mean, here we have the greatest enemies this country's probably ever had.
00:10:54.360The Chinese Communist Party being obviously the central threat to our citizens and to its own citizens.
00:11:57.140It is not good thoughts for us, because what they're seeing is the United States becoming a joke, becoming an afterthought, becoming a third world nation and losing its standing in the world.
00:12:09.940And they've seen it deliberately done with the withdrawal from Afghanistan that was, I mean, purposely done, taking the soldiers out first, giving Bagram to China, pushing this Ukraine conflict, escalating it with these sanctions that have actually hurt us more than anybody, cutting off our energy independence, opening up our border.
00:12:32.560I mean, they see everything that's going on. I mean, they see everything that's going on. And then, of course, weaponizing and spending all of their time just trying to illegitimately go after President Trump, the one person who's going to make America strong again.
00:12:45.960They're laughing all the way to the bank, and they're very happy with what they see. And that is a very, very bad thing for the world, not just for our country, but for all over the world.
00:12:55.960And so they really go together, Steve, and you're so right. The media is not paying attention to the stuff on the world stage.
00:13:05.360But the reason why they're going after President Trump is because they have to, because they want this stuff on the world stage to continue.
00:13:13.000President Trump gets in the way of all that. They want the open borders. They want the endless wars.
00:13:18.900They want America to no longer be a leading force in the world, the superpower. They want us gone.
00:13:27.020And so it all works together, and they have to take out President Trump. They have to try. It's not going to work.
00:13:32.540But they have to take out President Trump to continue this communist revolution that's going on throughout the world,
00:13:39.420this new globalist world order that they're trying to push and usher in.
00:13:43.560And President Trump and America first, we stand in the way of that.
00:13:48.900Liz, if you can hold through the break, Liz Harrington is a former executive editor of The War Room.
00:13:55.300She's a former senior official before that with the RNC communication strategist.
00:13:58.980She's now one of the senior communication strategists for President Trump and has been with President Trump for a couple of years now,
00:14:05.560including the 2020 campaign. I guess he came in right after the 2020 campaign, the 2022 midterm.
00:14:11.000So Liz Harrington has been there. She's been in the trenches. She knows of what she speaks.
00:14:15.960She was a little hot today, I guess, on True Social. We're going to get to all that. We're going to take a short commercial break.
00:14:20.760We're going to return. We're going to talk about polling. We're going to talk about President Trump's current situation,
00:14:25.840the impact it will have on the political process and his prospects.
00:14:29.660Also, I think Liz Harrington has some observations about Florida, maybe some of the political leadership down there.
00:14:37.660We're going to get into all of that. Also about the economy, the geopolitics in the beginning days of the Third World War right here in the war room.

00:17:20.200The thing is, there's a morning consult poll out from, and if we can pull that, I don't know if I got that to you guys, but I think it is.
00:17:26.880The morning consult poll, if we can put up on the screen, if we get time.
00:17:31.320It shows, I think, President Trump at 54%.
00:17:33.940I think DeSantis is 26 and the Keebler Elves are, you know, some combination of, I don't know, another 15 or 20.
00:17:40.020You've got the polling that very clearly, and we had the Rasmussen guys on the other day, that ever since East Palestine, two things, East Palestine and his policy pronouncements he's putting out every day that even the Hill picked up on.
00:17:55.020He's putting out serious policy pronouncements every day.
00:17:58.220People are kind of seeing, comparing and contrasting the neoliberal neocons with where Trump stands and what Trump did and accomplished.
00:18:06.500You add that on to really the amazing trip he made to East Palestine.
00:18:11.000In fact, we're going to go there with Real America's Voice, Ed Henry and Karen Turk.
00:18:34.700He's starting to spread the field, starting to get over 50% against all comers, you know, 52, 54, which this early is pretty, makes you a prohibitive favorite.
00:18:44.700Then you've got this situation in New York, and I got to tell you, I was, because I think Governor Sanders has done an excellent job, a very good job as governor.
00:18:52.500But then I see, you know, these comments the other day after taking 72 hours, and, you know, people that know you, Liz, you are very focused on lived Christianity, not just talking about Christianity.
00:19:07.060You have very deeply held beliefs, and you comport yourself like that.
00:19:10.760And I saw, I think it was your true social.
00:19:12.700It was a little hot, and I said, wow, you've got to go pretty far in the woods.
00:19:17.320You've got to go pretty far in the woods to hit Liz Harrington's tripwire.
00:19:20.840But once you hit it, back off, back off.
00:19:45.240We've had a belly full of these career politicians who put their finger where the wind's blowing, who are totally owned by other people, and will not just be straight with the American people.
00:19:59.900I mean, if you don't see what's going on right now, that we're in the midst of a communist revolution about to pass a point of no return, arresting not just a former president, but the number one leader of the opposition, your political opponent.
00:20:17.520That happens in the United States of America, that is a point of no return.
00:20:22.260It doesn't take much to say so, that it's not acceptable, and to say, oh, hey, by the way, that leader of the opposition is a resident of my state.
00:20:31.740I'm going to do whatever I can to not just talk the talk and say, oh, I'd take it to the Biden regime.
00:20:40.400He doesn't actually take it to the Biden regime because he did nothing when they raided Mar-a-Lago, when he could have done something.
00:20:46.980I mean, you know they would have gotten warning.
00:20:48.860He has full control of powers with Florida law enforcement.
00:20:57.280He says nothing when this news comes out that they're about to do a sham phony indictment of President Trump, and he says nothing until he gets a softball question asked and he has his handlers give him what to say.
00:23:12.000You might not always agree with everything he says, every decision he makes, but he is always making decisions for what's best for the country.
00:23:24.960He certainly, his family doesn't need any of this.
00:23:27.820No one has been treated worse than President Trump, probably in the history of our country when it comes to these sham, this persecution, these sham investigations.
00:23:39.900And it's clear, all these other people, this fake news media propaganda, pretending that they're even in the same league, that DeSantis is in the same league of Trump.
00:23:50.120I'm sorry, the people aren't buying it.
00:23:54.540And we want to get to real issues, which is, I mean, this indictment, I'm sorry if people don't want to cover it.
00:24:00.860This is a real issue because they're about to cross a point of no return.
00:24:04.740And we can't let this happen in the United States of America.
00:24:07.480We will lose our country unless we all act like President Trump and have courage to do the right thing and do what's right, not what some poll says, not what some uniparty handler wants you to say.
00:24:19.920And it just shows that at the end of the day, Ron DeSantis will not have the courage to actually take on the deep state, to take on the globalists or any of them, because they all own him.
00:24:30.600I think if you look at what's happening in Moscow with Putin, the KGB, the CCP, Xi, you look at the mullahs in the Ayatollahs and mullahs in Persia, in Tehran, you look at the House of South.
00:24:46.160You can't, you know, you had four years of peace and prosperity.
00:24:50.040We don't have a, we don't, we can't have on-the-job training.
00:24:54.420You need somebody that's going to brace those people up and only Trump can do that.
00:25:19.760Last thing, Liz, before he lets you go, the polling.
00:25:22.640There's clearly, I mean, when you've got, you know, people forget back in 15 and 16, the early days, you know, Trump was, Trump was in fifth or sixth place.
00:25:31.360He broke out from the, came down the escalator, but never had these kind of numbers.
00:25:35.540I mean, you got 52%, 54%, you got the Keebler elves and, and Governor DeSantis not even breaking 50 on a combo platter.
00:25:44.400Talk to me about the polling and your assessment of what's driven this, because it's really picked up momentum in the last couple of weeks, you can tell.
00:25:54.500Well, I think what you mentioned, people are being reminded, not just because of the seriousness of the times, but they're seeing his leadership in action again in East Palestine.
00:26:04.420They're seeing all these policy proposals and they're being reminded just how much we desperately need that leadership again.
00:26:10.920I mean, just today, he comes out with a 10-point plan, really thorough, of how to end the deep state permanently.
00:26:20.600And there's so much substance in there.
00:26:22.780There's so much real meat that we know he will deliver on, because he's lived through it.
00:26:29.320And, I mean, him traveling to East Palestine, I mean, no one else could do that.
00:26:34.000No one else could show that type of leadership.
00:26:35.920No one else has the heart, the hearts of the American people like he does and connects with them.
00:26:41.440And all of these events he's done in Iowa, laying out his education policy, a great speech, his CPAC speech.
00:26:47.700But getting out in South Carolina, New Hampshire, meeting with the people, they're really seeing, you know, the side and they're breaking through.
00:26:56.420The fake news doesn't have a control over his image anymore.
00:27:00.560People are going around the fake news.
00:27:03.280I mean, the numbers of people just going directly to our live streams, going directly to Truth Social, going directly to War Room, all the different Real America's Voice, all these great outlets now.
00:27:14.080I mean, they're through the roof because people want real leadership.
00:27:17.860And that's what they get with President Trump.
00:27:19.320And they know how serious things are for our country.
00:31:16.320You've got an economy that is a dumpster fire.
00:31:19.680You are underwriting this and all this crap in, in, it's going on in the financial system.
00:31:26.860And to wit, Silicon Valley Bank, it's reported today that Silicon Valley Bank, the senior management, the board of directors, and certain large shareholders got personal loans of over $200 million.
00:31:43.820I think $219 million, all months and weeks before the, before it collapsed.
00:31:52.200Now, let me remind you, this bank was insolvent in the third or fourth quarter of last year.
00:32:00.880Instead of Biden having his economic team in there, you know, trying to press back on Janet Yellen, he's got these guys, what was it, Ted, some comedy show?
00:32:09.500And he's got them down there taking up the, you know, they're down there for the briefing.
00:32:12.520I mean, this is, this is the lack of, so we do not have serious people.
00:32:18.180This Biden regime, because they stole the election and they know they can try to steal them going forward, unless we put our foot down, unless we stop it, you're going to have to stop it.
00:32:55.360They just told you their, their, their number one objective in this first phase of the war is to destroy the U.S. dollar as the globe's currency.
00:33:04.020And I'm not saying over time, that's something as a conscious decision we might want to think about, but not to be forced upon us decades before we're ready for it, because it's a different deal if that was to happen.
00:33:17.840That's your enemies are focused on that.
00:33:19.400And he's sitting there with some comedy crew.
00:33:23.280He's got time to hang around with some comedy crew.
00:34:56.200$219 million after Goldman Sachs made a couple hundred million dollars in selling the loan portfolio, after David Tepper's going to make a couple of billion on buying the distressed bonds, after all the venture capitalists sucked out $40 billion in one afternoon, and then said, oh, our companies can't make payroll.
00:35:12.720Instead of putting in a credit line, they had you do it, you underwrite it.
00:35:16.420Now you find out that the woke board, the woke management, the woke big investors, right, on, you know, were taking out massive loans, and they haven't even had any, you know, oh, we may carve back the stock they sold in the last week in the run-up.
00:35:39.540This is a massive breach of fiduciary responsibility, and particularly if they can put a trail together that they knew and they should have known, the financial condition.
00:35:48.860The bank all had to do was take a quick look at the balance sheet, and you saw that.
00:35:53.240They did know the regulators were talking to them and were all over them about certain aspects of this, and particularly mark-to-market, right, on their portfolio.
00:36:01.320And yet they're giving loans to each other.
00:36:03.140The whole thing, the venture loans, the whole thing is a total scam, and you're underwriting it.
00:41:30.600And she has since talked about in other interviews that she's given, I believe, with Barry Weiss,
00:41:35.720the free press, that they were pressuring parents to just to the point where parents didn't even feel like they had a choice,
00:41:42.660but to go along with this experimental medicalization.
00:41:45.600And so my big hat tip to Jamie Reid for her courage, but that was what I believe Senator Josh Hawley said to sort of use the power of his office to investigate further.
00:41:57.200That's what sort of caused things to erupt in Missouri.
00:41:59.440And now with the Attorney General's action today, it all stemmed back from that courageous whistleblower, Jamie Reid, in the free press a few weeks ago.
00:42:07.840Brandon, you've got a very special event, I think, going to take place on Thursday.
00:42:10.880I want to make sure I get to take a minute and explain what's going to happen and where can people go get tickets for it.

00:42:47.540and Amy Ichikawa, the founder of Woman to Woman.
00:45:28.180Okay, I'll be up with Royce White tonight for about an hour to break down the current economic situation, capital market situation with Royce.
00:45:53.860One we would like you to do to get smarter and immerse yourself, and that is go to birchgold.com slash Bannon and get the three installments, particularly the latest one I put out called The Debt Trap.
00:46:04.780The overall arching theme of this program is called The End of the Dollar Empire.
00:46:11.340And you saw today what happened in Russia right there.
00:46:13.620They said they're going to do everything in Chinese currency.
00:46:20.240If you immerse yourself in it, we tried to make this as accessible as possible.
00:46:24.080We talked first about the politics of money and the founding of our country all the way through the 19th century to the founding of the Federal Reserve.
00:46:32.000Then we talked about the end of the dollars, the prime reserve currency.
00:46:35.960The third phase is called the debt ceiling.
00:46:38.180You're going to get everything you need to know about the debt trap, what we're in.
00:46:41.160It'll make everything understandable, like tomorrow when we have this big argument about is he going to raise it 50 basis points, which is half a percentage point, or 25 basis points, what the jam the Federal Reserve is in and how that's going to impact your personal life.
00:46:59.540And also in a world where the way they're calming the waters here is they're just printing massive amount of money at the Federal Reserve right now and infusing it called liquidity.
00:47:11.980They're just infusing the entire system with cash, okay, whether that's the Bank of Switzerland with these credit swap lines so they can just take cash from the Federal Reserve or they're just doing it at the discount window and shoving it into these insolvent banks, the 186 to 200 banks that are insolvent.
00:47:46.400Immerse yourself in understanding money and the politics of money.
00:47:51.580For one thing, you've got to do that because it's going to be one of the major issues going forward on economics, particularly as we run up to 2024.
00:49:08.880We can get a few more states, but ultimately we've got to go after these states that are doing it in the blue states as well.
00:49:14.340But we're up to 10 states now, Steve, that are protecting kids from these gender modification surgeries and the hormone treatments and the puberty blockers.
00:49:23.760They're sterilizing our kids and preventing them from ever being able to have children of their own.
00:49:27.680It's all part of this population control agenda that these guys have.
00:49:30.580And then on top of that, the thing I'm most proud of is that we now have four states that have enacted meaningful age verification.
00:49:39.520We're waiting for Sarah Sanders, Glenn Youngkin, and Spencer Cox to sign age verification laws into effect to protect kids online from pornography.
00:50:32.100Social media and where's the website they can go find out more about it and understand the victories, but also understand the arduous path we have in front of us?
00:50:40.840You can check us out online at AmericanPrinciplesProject.org.
00:50:44.980Or you can follow me on social media at shilling1776 across all the platforms, Twitter, Getter, True Social, Instagram, all that.
00:51:35.140I think it will be some very interesting personalities.
00:51:37.020And like I said, it's not my line of country.
00:51:39.420I kind of came into this and learned as I went along.
00:51:42.500But I think it's important for everybody to understand what's going on.
00:51:45.680The most important thing that came out of that whistleblower is, remember, the medical industry right now is making a ton of money off this.
00:51:52.620And that's what the whistleblower, who happened to be somebody who actually supports that ideology overall.
