Transcript

00:00:00.000 This is the primal scream of a dying regime.
00:00:07.100 Pray for our enemies, because we're going medieval on these people.
00:00:12.320 Here's the time I got a free shot at all these networks lying about the people.
00:00:16.580 The people have had a belly full of it.
00:00:18.500 I know you don't like hearing that.
00:00:19.920 I know you've tried to do everything in the world to stop that,
00:00:21.680 but you're not going to stop it. It's going to happen.
00:00:23.860 And where do people like that go to share the big lie?
00:00:27.280 MAGA media.
00:00:28.180 I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
00:00:34.060 Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
00:00:37.840 If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.
00:00:44.100 War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Band.
00:00:47.420 It's like if we do not liberate a Sánchez.
00:01:09.980 If you're talking about journalism and freedom, why do you have a conscience?
00:01:24.320 If you're talking about journalism and freedom, why do you have a conscience?
00:01:24.340 If you're talking about journalism and freedom, why do you have a conscience?
00:01:40.480 How do you have a conscience?
00:01:42.620 How do you have a conscience?
00:01:43.300 How do you have a conscience?
00:01:44.800 Premiado in the United States,
00:01:46.320 Asegura
00:01:46.960 That the government of the United States
00:01:51.420 Saboteed
00:01:57.640 The ducto
00:02:01.980 of gas, of Russia, of Europe.
00:02:31.980 Scenario implies the Fed knows something that we don't.
00:02:36.600 I think to think that is probably just misguided.
00:02:40.260 Frankly, 25 or applause doesn't really mean that much either way.
00:02:45.080 It's what he says.
00:02:46.620 The Fed is petrified.
00:02:48.380 All right.
00:02:49.000 I could watch a Brammo promo all day.
00:02:51.900 That makes one of us.
00:02:53.420 Absolutely love it.
00:02:54.460 Julian Emanuel there of Evercore a little bit earlier on.
00:02:57.260 We're looking for a 25 basis point hike.
00:02:59.260 That's the consensus for you.
00:03:00.360 Some people are looking for a pause.
00:03:02.200 Goldman Sachs one, Wells Fargo another, NatWest, Credit Suisse making calls for a pause today.
00:03:08.380 Other people say cut, including Nomura, a cut to 450.
00:03:12.340 I mean, there's a call.
00:03:13.300 That is a call that no one else really seems to agree with.
00:03:16.120 But that is a call.
00:03:17.000 And it really bakes in this expectation that we're going to see other bank failures in the
00:03:20.080 small to medium sized region.
00:03:21.600 Basically, how many others out there are dealing with the same kind of liquidity mismatch on
00:03:25.980 a larger sense?
00:03:27.060 Does it matter?
00:03:27.700 What if they hike rates and nobody cares?
00:03:29.260 Because it really has to do with the projections and the press conference.
00:03:32.180 There was some language that Marko Kalanovic of JP Morgan used earlier this week in the
00:03:35.920 investment bank.
00:03:36.560 He said, pass the point and no return.
00:03:38.460 Have we done that now in the last two weeks?
00:03:40.660 Have we gone past the point of no return?
00:03:42.500 Or are we one solution away from talking about the things we were talking about two weeks
00:03:46.480 ago?
00:03:46.760 Which is something I've raised repeatedly in the last couple of days, Lisa, because I don't
00:03:49.920 know.
00:03:50.100 You know where the consensus is right now.
00:03:52.220 Alicia Levine sat there from BNY Mellon just 10 minutes ago.
00:03:55.240 And if you're just tuning in, this is basically what she said.
00:03:58.180 You get liquidity issues.
00:03:59.580 They turn into tighter lending standards.
00:04:01.600 That turns into credit issues.
00:04:02.980 And then you bring the recession forward.
00:04:04.520 And ultimately, for that reason, she's not very constructive on equity markets right now.
00:04:08.580 Which is the same kind of sentiment from Bob Michael over at JP Morgan Asset Management,
00:04:11.820 saying even they are tightening credit conditions.
00:04:14.720 They are the credit lenders, and they are definitely increasing the risk aversion.
00:04:19.900 I do wonder, though, with headlines like what came out this morning, that mortgage rates
00:04:23.400 fell to their lowest level in five weeks.
00:04:25.840 On the flip side, when people start pricing out rate hikes and start pricing in cuts, how
00:04:30.600 much does that ease on the margins in areas that were initially most affected by the rate
00:04:35.540 hikes?
00:04:35.800 I mean, these are sort of some of the dueling narratives, the dueling crosswinds that people
00:04:39.640 are trying to parse through.
00:04:40.480 And everybody has a different take on the implications.
00:04:42.840 I would put the emphasis on the supply of credit in the next few weeks and not the price of
00:04:46.820 it, given how difficult it might be to actually receive it, regardless of the price.
00:04:51.540 I think that's going to be the interesting part.
00:04:52.980 And of course, I know there's some association between what the price is and what the supply
00:04:55.920 is.
00:04:56.320 But ultimately, that's where I'd put the emphasis if we're talking about tighter lending standards.
00:05:00.260 That's what it's going to come down to.
00:05:01.960 That's a great point, especially because just recently there was a Federal Reserve survey
00:05:05.800 that showed that the number of auto loan applications that were rejected rose to the highest
00:05:11.100 levels going back to 2016 to 9%, more than 9%.
00:05:15.000 This speaks to your point.
00:05:16.320 Even if rates come down, people still aren't going to be taking them out because what bank
00:05:19.900 is going to want to extend that loan at a time when they've got much more constrained
00:05:23.200 capital?
00:05:23.760 That's going to be the difficult issue.
00:05:25.060 Let's see how it plays out.
00:05:26.040 I mean, this is literally two weeks old.
00:05:27.720 Two weeks old.
00:05:28.880 Dan Iverson of PIMCA, keep going back to that phrase, multi-month process.
00:05:32.920 He said this is a multi-month process.
00:05:35.140 Let's see how it plays out.
00:05:39.040 Wednesday, 22 March in the year of our Lord, 2023.
00:05:43.160 Right there, there's a saying, I think it's attributed to Lenin, that there are years,
00:05:49.620 there are decades in which nothing happens.
00:05:52.440 And then there are months in which decades happen.
00:05:55.040 This is a very historic week.
00:05:59.400 You just saw the wrap-up of the three-day meeting analogous to Molotov and Ribbentrop meeting
00:06:08.380 in 1939 that kicked off the secret agreements there, which kicked off World War II.
00:06:14.820 You have Xi and Putin.
00:06:17.220 And remember, you've got all these airhead analysts that are running around, oh, you know,
00:06:21.660 it's just this, you know, they haven't really done anything, that could not be farther from the truth.
00:06:27.080 The backdoor deals, what they're doing.
00:06:28.880 Of course, all the Western things, just, oh, Ukraine, you know, you can't do anything with Ukraine.
00:06:32.540 It's all Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine.
00:06:35.060 What you're seeing here is the partnership, the Legion of Doom, right, the Legion of Doom.
00:06:40.080 And by the way, do I have that, I want to pull it up later, Dr. Brzezinski's,
00:06:44.360 what I sent you from that book earlier.
00:06:46.160 We'll pull it up when Monica Crowley, she's going to join us at the bottom of the hour.
00:06:49.320 However, this partnership, this partnership in Moscow between the CCP and Xi and the KGB and Putin
00:06:57.440 is one of the most serious things that's ever happened in your lifetime.
00:07:01.560 At the same time, you have a complete meltdown of the financial system.
00:07:05.460 And when they say the phrase, supply a credit, that means you ain't getting an auto loan.
00:07:11.120 You know, they're going to start rejecting your credit card.
00:07:12.840 They're going to come in and say, hey, you know, you got $1,000 or $2,000 limited credit card.
00:07:16.760 We'd like you to take that down immediately to, like, $500.
00:07:21.500 This is all coming.
00:07:22.860 And this afternoon, the Federal Reserve is going to be, we're obviously going to be all over that.
00:07:26.300 Navarra Cortez is going to join us in the evening to assess this rolling crisis.
00:07:32.200 A couple of things.
00:07:34.540 Inflation today in the United Kingdom, oops, oops, 10.4%.
00:07:39.580 Thought they had it beaten, not even close.
00:07:42.080 It's raging dumpster fire in the UK, and trust me, what happens in Europe, as we said, is about 90 days before here.
00:07:48.400 So we're going to get, by the way, Lisa Bramowitz, once again, the smartest person in all media.
00:07:54.420 Current company included.
00:07:57.960 She's absolutely brilliant every morning on Bloomberg TV.
00:08:00.780 If you get a chance, you ought to be watching that.
00:08:02.180 I want to go to, with all that, I'm going to start with Boris, because I want to put this in perspective.
00:08:09.600 The individual, now think about this for a second.
00:08:13.100 You've got the mortal enemies of freedom and liberty in Moscow plotting their roll-up of the Eurasian landmass and driving America into the sea.
00:08:26.820 You've got them plotting about what they're going to do in Taiwan and destroy the American economy.
00:08:32.660 You've got them plotting what they're going to do with the mullahs in Persia and what they're doing with the House of Saud and all of it.
00:08:39.040 From Pakistan to mini-me in North Korea.
00:08:41.320 And you've got, you know, he's kicking around, so he's got two million guys, two million volunteers going to be throwing nuclear weapons everywhere, right?
00:08:46.460 You've got that going.
00:08:47.140 And you have the financial meltdown.
00:08:50.280 By the way, it's been assessed today that, or been acknowledged that each citizen in Switzerland will be, not assessed, but their tab on this thing looks like it's going to be $13,500 for the merger, for the cram together of those elite banks, the elite banks.
00:09:08.240 That's going to be the pleasure.
00:09:09.140 That's coming to the U.S. also.
00:09:10.460 Boris Epstein, with all that, we have a guy who gave you four years of peace and prosperity in one of the most dangerous times in American history, and we're sitting here spending time, which I refuse to spend too much of it, on an idiotic, radical, source-backed attorney general of the state of New York and local DA that are – the charge is so bizarre, it's not even to be worthwhile of talking about.
00:09:38.780 It's not a charge.
00:09:39.720 It's just all they want to do is perp-walk Donald J. Trump.
00:09:42.880 And so on the world stage, the leader of the United States of America and someone who got 74 million votes – let me repeat that, 74 million votes – and had the presidency stolen from him with every effort they did and every trick they pulled and all the mail-in ballots and everything they did, all of it, by 53,000 votes in a couple of states, okay?
00:10:04.680 53,000 votes in a couple of states.
00:10:08.100 That individual, all they're doing is plotting and planning and lab and doing all this is to perp-walking either later this week or next week in New York City.
00:10:16.140 I want you to compare and contrast that.
00:10:17.940 The one president in this country, Ronald Reagan included, that braced up the Chinese Communist Party, when the Bush – remember, the Bush junta saved the Chinese Communist Party after Tiananmen Square, saved them, saved them.
00:10:32.840 The Chinese people, Lao Baixing, the 10,000 dead throughout the country in Tiananmen Square that gave their lives for Lady Liberty, right?
00:10:40.220 We're prepared to overthrow those monsters, backed by Bush 41, okay?
00:10:47.100 You had – and by the way, we're on the 20th anniversary of the evasion of the illegal, illegitimate invasion of Iraq, of more blood and treasure, $7 trillion and tens of thousands of American lives, not even counting the Iraqi lives and the Christians in the Middle East.
00:11:02.600 They were all eradicated.
00:11:04.540 On that, we have a leader, and this is particularly for the people that can't stand the sound of Donald Trump's name.
00:11:14.340 You have a leader that gave us four years of peace and prosperity in a time of turbulence, chaos, and anarchy in the world.
00:11:22.680 And they're going to have him perp walk next week for a charge that is so bizarre and so ridiculous, it is not – reasonable people should not even discuss it because it has nothing to do with the law.
00:11:38.100 This is the administrative state, the deep state, these evil, evil, evil people that oppose us, okay?
00:11:45.180 And they oppose us with everything in their might.
00:11:47.300 These evil people, and they are evil, to their core being they're evil, and they hate this country.
00:11:52.660 They're trying to destroy this country, and they think they're doing – I got news for them.
00:11:57.200 Donald Trump is going to unite this country with this.
00:12:00.480 He's going to unite this country like this country has never been united.
00:12:03.280 It's never been united like it's going to be around Trump.
00:12:06.580 Even people that can't stand Trump understand that are going to start understanding, hey, there's something deeply, deeply, deeply wrong here.
00:12:14.640 Why do they hate him? Why are they trying to put him in jail? Why are they trying to thwart him at every different level?
00:12:19.140 Boris Epstein, your thoughts, comments, and observations, sir.
00:12:23.680 Steve, honored to be with you. Honored to be with the posse.
00:12:26.120 And I want to start by reading something, and then maybe you'll put it up on screen.
00:12:30.940 I sent it to you and Denver shortly ago.
00:12:34.380 Interviews with election law experts strongly suggest that New York state prosecutors have never before filed an election law case involving a federal campaign.
00:12:43.540 Bringing an untested case against anyone, let alone a former president of the United States, carries the risk that a court can throw out or narrow the case.
00:12:53.100 That is a quote not from David Schoen.
00:12:57.360 That's a quote not from Fox News.
00:13:01.280 Not – definitely not from the war room posse.
00:13:03.800 That is a quote from the New York Times, Steve.
00:13:06.860 The New York Times, in a robust story yesterday, saying that this kind of nonsense has never before been done in New York State.
00:13:15.740 Literally never.
00:13:16.500 And as you said, pulling together the fact that the Biden crime family is owned, owned by the Chinese Communist Party, as Jamie Comer, James Comer, and others are revealing so artfully,
00:13:30.780 and the fact that President Trump is the only leader in American history to truly stand up to the Chinese Communist Party.
00:13:37.280 You pull those two facts together, and now you have this attack against President Trump, this persecution of President Trump, by radical, woke persecutors all over the country,
00:13:46.840 Manhattan, D.A., New York, A.G., down in Fulton County, Georgia, and of course, the special Jack Smith.
00:13:54.020 What does it tell you?
00:13:55.180 Who's trying to protect who?
00:13:56.980 It sure seems to me like the Biden crime family is doing all it can to protect their masters, the Chinese Communist Party.
00:14:04.860 While, as you said, there's a summit going on as we speak, literally connecting the Eurasian landmass against the West.
00:14:14.440 This was the number one goal of everybody from Churchill to Roosevelt to Nixon.
00:14:22.240 There was an acute understanding that if you allow Soviet Union and South Russia to connect with China and to be united against the West,
00:14:31.020 that is a battle that is going to be extremely difficult to win.
00:14:34.860 And that's what we have under Beijing, Joe Biden.
00:14:39.960 Boris, hang on for one second.
00:14:41.900 We're going to take a short commercial break.
00:14:43.500 We're going to return with this a historic week in world history.
00:14:47.600 Also, your personal history, because the impacts of this are going to be deep, profound, and long-lasting.
00:14:54.400 Back in the warm in a moment.
00:14:55.700 Let's take down the CCP.

00:15:29.980 It's not working.
00:15:31.580 You can't spend your way out of inflation.
00:15:34.040 You've seen the impact on the stock market.
00:15:36.200 You've seen the impact on your savings.
00:15:38.380 Hedge inflation by owning gold.
00:15:40.120 Let me repeat that.
00:15:41.400 Hedge inflation by owning gold.

00:16:17.760 Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
00:16:24.880 I'm going to talk about, in a minute, we're going to talk with Boris and economics.
00:16:28.720 I want everybody to get a chance.
00:16:30.380 Go to birchgold.com slash Bannon and get, right now, your free, the third installment, The Debt Trap.
00:16:37.400 You have to get this because it's about the spending and the massive spending, which triggered all of this.
00:16:42.780 Triggered all of this.
00:16:44.340 Okay?
00:16:44.740 And we'll go to it in depth.
00:16:45.940 But I need you to get that.
00:16:47.400 Talk more about that and looking at gold as an alternative right now.
00:16:51.260 When you've got Japan, India, and China buying it as fast as they can buy it.
00:16:55.460 Birchgold.com slash Bannon.
00:16:56.960 Go there for all your needs, all free information kits, everything.
00:17:01.300 Boris.
00:17:02.740 I want to go through some polling.
00:17:03.960 But people don't remember, in World War II, after Pearl Harbor, remember, America was asleep in the 30s.
00:17:09.600 Our focus is to make sure America, particularly working class people in the middle class, are not asleep.
00:17:18.040 But they're wide awake about what's happening here.
00:17:20.820 So it's not like the 1930s where we kind of sleptwalk into that.
00:17:24.480 Although there's plenty of information out there, all the way from Mein Kampf to what Imperial Japan was doing.
00:17:30.380 But when we got hit on Pearl Harbor on December 7th, the next day when Roosevelt went to Congress, because they never talk about this.
00:17:39.880 He did not declare war in Germany.
00:17:42.220 He did not declare war in Germany.
00:17:43.980 He declared war because of the sneak attack on the Empire of Japan.
00:17:49.320 Two days later, Hitler declared war in the United States.
00:17:53.860 And then we were at war.
00:17:54.760 The reason Hitler declared war in the United States, which was his biggest gamble, probably even bigger than, or as big as Lisa turning on his part in the Soviet Union, was that he, they had a secret deal.
00:18:08.420 They had a secret treaty they had signed.
00:18:11.640 Compare and contrast what's happened in Moscow the last couple of days, because the media is sitting there going, well, they just had some photo ops.
00:18:18.620 They're cutting secret deals all the time behind the scenes.
00:18:22.300 China is the senior partner here.
00:18:24.040 They've totally flipped from when Nixon went.
00:18:26.260 They're the senior partner.
00:18:27.640 The KGB Moscow is the junior partner.
00:18:30.340 Boris, compare and contrast the Nazis in Japan, because it was the same plan, the same plan to control the Eurasian landmass.
00:18:37.720 They were just going to do it from the exterior going in.
00:18:40.540 The sphere of co-prosperity, the Asian sphere of co-prosperity is what the Japanese called it.
00:18:46.240 The Nazis wanted Liebenstraum, right, wanted living space.
00:18:48.840 But compare and contrast what the Nazis and the Imperial Japanese did in the Japanese Empire to what the KGB and the CCP are doing right now.
00:19:01.460 And the Chinese Communist Party right now is the greatest threat to world democracies, the greatest threat to, you know, the world peace.
00:19:13.560 And it's no doubt the greatest threat and adversary to the United States of America.
00:19:17.280 There's no two ways about it.
00:19:18.300 So what they're doing, they're looking around and saying, OK, who is being completely ostracized from the world?
00:19:25.220 And who can we bring into our sphere?
00:19:26.860 And you're right.
00:19:27.340 And now they're looking.
00:19:27.900 It used to be that the Soviet Union was the senior partner and Mao Zedong, the Chinese Communist Party, was the junior partner.
00:19:35.060 It is now absolutely flipped and switched with China by far the senior partner.
00:19:40.220 And they're putting Russia under its influence.
00:19:44.040 And why are they doing it?
00:19:45.260 Because the Russia-Ukraine war, and hey, I said it here first over a year ago.
00:19:50.180 I'll say it again.
00:19:51.140 Putin made a major strategic mistake, ethical, going into Ukraine, invading Ukraine.
00:19:56.200 Major mistake.
00:19:57.040 Full stop.
00:19:59.220 Major blunder.
00:20:00.600 Has the world also, obviously, the United States under Biden and Western Europe done a terrible job of handling the crisis?
00:20:08.960 No doubt about it.
00:20:09.920 Have we driven Russia right into China's outstretched arms?
00:20:14.140 No doubt about it.
00:20:15.560 So now what you have is, again, a very similar.
00:20:18.780 What Germany wanted to do with Japan, as you said perfectly, is go from exterior to the interior
00:20:24.480 and connect Europe to Asia by invading and overtaking the Soviet Union.
00:20:30.720 Because of the, let's just call it state-of-state, because Hitler completely miscalculated and declared war in the United States,
00:20:41.820 and because of the, maybe there's a comparison in world history, but my estimation,
00:20:47.960 unparalleled, bloody fighting, and to the death stand by the Red Army for four years, they were not able to do that.
00:20:58.340 They were defeated in Russia, you know, turned away at Moscow in late 41, and then fully turned away at Stalingrad,
00:21:05.500 and then the Battle of Kursk, you had that, that was prevented, that was prevented.
00:21:11.660 That was war, that was warped on fighting.
00:21:13.900 We're not even putting up that kind of fight, we're just saying, hey, go ahead, do it.
00:21:18.340 Remember this, remember this always and everywhere.
00:21:23.500 The American audience are, the Chinese people, not their leaders, not Chiang Kai-shek,
00:21:29.880 and not Mao Zedong, the leaders of the Nationalists, or the leaders of the, because they were corrupt as all get-out,
00:21:34.680 and the leaders of the Communists were worst on Earth, or Stalin in this crowd, the leaders in Moscow.
00:21:42.860 But the Chinese people, and the American, and the Russian people, and the American people,
00:21:50.820 with obviously the British and others, but that is what destroyed this, that's what took the brunt of it,
00:21:56.160 and destroyed it in the middle of the 20th century.
00:21:59.020 They never teach you that, right?
00:22:01.400 And we abandoned those people to Mao Zedong, the State Department, infected with Communists.
00:22:09.000 We abandoned the Chinese people after the war.
00:22:12.440 We abandoned the Chinese people.
00:22:14.560 We left them to fight a civil war, and then left them and backed, essentially backed Mao Zedong,
00:22:20.660 and allowed those guys, the Chinese, to come to power.
00:22:22.600 And, quite frankly, like Patton and those guys did, we didn't back off the Bolsheviks,
00:22:26.900 we didn't back off the Communists in Russia and all of Eastern Europe.
00:22:32.020 Didn't.
00:22:32.740 We abandoned, our allies were the people.
00:22:36.680 Lao Baixing in China, old hundred names, and the Russian peasants and serfs in Russia.
00:22:42.640 Okay?
00:22:43.120 And we abandoned them.
00:22:44.060 And now we're in a situation, what, less than a hundred years later, and you don't think, this is as bad as it gets.
00:22:51.300 It's as bad as it gets, and it's going to get worse, particularly in the fact that our financial system is burning to the ground.
00:22:56.480 Boris, I want to pivot for a second.
00:22:58.380 And this is for the, look, I understand this audience is the hardcore of the hardcore of the Trump movement.
00:23:02.040 I got that.
00:23:03.340 But when you talk to people, it's people, a populist, nationalist, America first set of policies is what's going to save this country and save the world.
00:23:14.380 That's why people are going to unite around Donald Trump, even people that hate him.
00:23:19.680 Right?
00:23:19.940 Not the people that have lost it in hate, but I mean people right now, independents, even some Democrats go,
00:23:24.920 oh, Trump's just too much, just too chaotic.
00:23:26.260 He provided us, as a country, order out of chaos.
00:23:34.140 He provided us prosperity in a world that was slipping away from prosperity.
00:23:39.680 He gave us four years of peace and prosperity.
00:23:43.300 And if you see those gangsters in Moscow right now, and you see we started with the president of Mexico dumping on the United States,
00:23:51.320 because they're uniting, what they're going to do is unite the global south.
00:23:56.720 Okay?
00:23:57.000 They're going to unite the global south.
00:23:59.320 And right now you've got these party at Davos, you've got the guys in Brussels that have their own deal and want their own deal.
00:24:04.240 Well, they've got to step up and start paying for it.
00:24:05.720 They're going to do it.
00:24:06.820 If they want the EU in Ukraine and they want NATO in Ukraine, that's their deal.
00:24:11.040 We fought enough European wars.
00:24:13.180 Let me repeat that.
00:24:14.520 This country of immigrants that got kicked.
00:24:16.800 Remember, your great-grandparents and great-great-grandparents got kicked out of every, quote-unquote, decent country over there.
00:24:24.120 Their deals were so good over there, they decided to get on a boat, come over here into a wilderness, and try to make a go of it.
00:24:32.800 Okay?
00:24:33.380 Check out Europe.
00:24:34.260 Look at Europe.
00:24:34.860 While you leave that, you're leaving that for a reason.
00:24:37.400 You know why?
00:24:37.980 Your life sucks.
00:24:39.140 Okay?
00:24:39.440 They came here, and we've fought enough of these European wars, and we've pulled their fat out of the fire enough times.
00:24:46.920 Donald Trump.
00:24:47.580 Let's go to the polling.
00:24:48.840 Let me say this here, and I've got a pretty good track record of crystal ball.
00:24:52.000 Donald Trump is going to unite this country.
00:24:54.600 In this situation with the administrative state and deep state making stuff up, tearing up the rulebook, as I told you, the Swiss tore it up over the weekend.
00:25:02.280 The feds and all the treasury tore it up on Silicon Valley Bank.
00:25:06.400 They'll tear up the playbook and rechange it.
00:25:08.220 They're coming after Donald Trump.
00:25:09.480 They've torn up the playbook because they must imprison him to stop him.
00:25:14.240 Let me repeat this.
00:25:15.040 They must imprison him to stop him, and it's now time for us to let them know he is an unstoppable force.
00:25:22.300 He has unleashed a movement, and no, it's not going to go to lower Manhattan and have some big protests.
00:25:26.420 That's beside the point.
00:25:28.560 That's beside the point.
00:25:29.940 We're going to take the country over and run these people out of their offices.
00:25:33.460 They're not going to have any power anymore.
00:25:34.700 Boris Epstein.
00:25:35.500 How is President Trump uniting the country right now?
00:25:38.220 Steve, he's uniting the country by absolutely dominating, dominating in the polling with Republicans and Democrats.
00:25:45.180 You look yesterday, a poll he had him at 64, and this is head-to-head against the governor of Florida, who is, I guess, busy giving interviews to Piers Morgan.
00:25:54.100 I didn't realize Piers Morgan still had a show or any sort of presence.
00:25:57.620 I thought he was just doing some game shows somewhere out there in London or in the rural U.K., but, you know, the governor of Florida had time to sit down with Piers Morgan and have a chat, and I guess Ron DeSantis thinks that he's George Washington or something.
00:26:12.440 So while President Trump is uniting the country against radical, woke persecutors and fighting to stand for America, to stand for America's strength, the governor of Florida isn't focused on Florida.
00:26:25.320 He's focused on, you know, having little powwows with Piers Morgan.
00:26:29.560 President Trump at 64, the next guy at 36.
00:26:31.920 If you look at morning consult polling, Steve, this is political morning consult, okay?
00:26:37.440 This is not a trafalgar.
00:26:40.080 This is not Rasmussen.
00:26:41.760 This is a way left of center, not even a little left of center, a way left of center poll.
00:26:46.900 President Trump at 54, the sanctimonious at 26, Pence at 7, Nikki Haley at 4, and then you go down the list.
00:26:57.120 President Trump is not winning.
00:27:00.180 He has won this race.
00:27:01.920 This race is over in the Republican primary, and if you look at the head-to-head, President Trump looking at Arizona, he's up 11 on pathetic Joe Biden.
00:27:11.480 And why is it over, Steve?
00:27:12.740 It's not just over because of politics.
00:27:14.420 It's over because of policy.
00:27:16.260 President Trump's robust videos and the fact that they're coming at him so hard.
00:27:20.520 You have the financial fans just coming at us with a story saying it's a mistake to go after President Trump on a nonsense technicality.
00:27:27.800 You've got a constitutional way left of center scholar Marshall Tannick writing in the Minneapolis Star Tribune that this case is a mistake.
00:27:36.740 There is no case in Manhattan.
00:27:38.280 There was no crime, no affair, and the only issue there is an extortion by President Trump and all this one big conspiracy to take him down.
00:27:47.360 Boris, how did we get to you on social media?
00:27:50.820 People have got to follow you now.

00:28:05.320 I'll love it, and I'll talk to you tomorrow.
00:28:06.940 Boris Epstein, thank you.
00:28:11.620 Short break.
00:28:12.620 Monica Crowley next in the war room.
00:28:16.820 Nobody thinks that I can take their house and borrow against the house.
00:28:19.960 Oh, no, I have title insurance.
00:28:21.720 No, it's in my name, or he would have to get some special document.
00:28:25.720 They would call me.
00:28:27.180 You know, nobody's calling you.
00:28:28.840 After I've stolen the title, borrowed against it, or sold the property, it's 60 to 90 days
00:28:34.320 to even figure out that they're the victim of this crime.
00:28:37.300 You know, by that point, you start getting foreclosure notices.
00:28:40.080 You've got four mortgages on your house.
00:28:41.980 You don't even own your home anymore.
00:28:43.280 It's not even in your name.
00:28:44.620 That's a convicted criminal confessing how easily a criminal can find, forge, and refile
00:28:50.740 your home's title in his name.
00:28:52.880 I discovered that neither my identity theft program nor homeowners insurance protected me.
00:28:57.780 That's why I chose Home Title Lock, and you should too.

00:29:32.080 Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
00:29:34.800 Somebody has got to take the lead here, and even if it is China as unpalatable as it seems
00:29:46.180 to the economic adversaries and the economic and the military rivals of China, if it provides
00:29:54.960 a diplomatic off-ramp, then it should be grasped with both hands.
00:30:00.260 Would it be more palatable, then, if China worked in coordination with India, with Turkey,
00:30:08.260 some of these other allies that are really straddling that divide between the West and
00:30:14.820 between Russia?
00:30:15.800 Yeah, I do think that it would make it more palatable, but I doubt that they're going
00:30:19.820 to get the Turks or the Indians to come on board to something like that.
00:30:24.200 Look, what's been proposed is a non-starter.
00:30:28.680 The Ukrainians are not going to accept anything less than retaking all their territory.
00:30:35.120 I think that probably they won't accept anything less.
00:30:37.380 And Russian troops out, right?
00:30:38.060 Yeah, and Russian troops out.
00:30:39.300 Yeah, taking it all back.
00:30:40.160 And I'm talking about 2014.
00:30:41.540 I'm not talking about 2022.
00:30:42.800 And the Western allies are not really, and Japan, by the way, now, don't really see, yeah,
00:30:50.440 that we can talk about that, too.
00:30:52.040 Don't we need a ceasefire first to move on from there?
00:30:56.520 You've got to look at it realistically.
00:30:58.220 Ukraine knows it's winning.
00:30:59.760 It wasn't supposed to, and it is.
00:31:01.660 It's not going to throw that away.
00:31:03.060 It's not going to throw away that advantage, especially when they have all of these new
00:31:07.120 weapons coming online.
00:31:08.260 I think that, you know, we're not accustomed to so much of the global economy and so much
00:31:15.420 of global markets being held hostage to.
00:31:19.180 Okay.
00:31:20.760 Okay, guys, when I start talking this time, yeah, there we go.
00:31:24.380 We have to retrain people every day.
00:31:27.440 You see right there, you've got, Ukraine's telling us what they're going to do.
00:31:33.720 They're going to retake the turret.
00:31:34.760 They've got to have every Russian troop, all the Russian troops out of there.
00:31:37.600 But they have to have them out of East Donbass, which has been fighting over since 14.
00:31:41.840 You've got to have them out of Crimea.
00:31:45.460 Good luck with that.
00:31:46.320 You've got to have them all out of Crimea and get that.
00:31:48.500 And remember, Biden said, hey, whatever you want, however long you want it, you want it.
00:31:54.260 We're in complete total meltdown.
00:31:56.180 Biden is wrapped around the accident on this budget.
00:31:58.320 He's coming back and saying the Republican first cut, you know, first volley back on a 6.8
00:32:02.560 train, which we no longer can afford.
00:32:04.240 And the Fed can't even print enough money.
00:32:08.360 And remember, the money they're printing, you have to start not, you don't have to do anything.
00:32:14.120 One way to think about this inflation is the most regressive tax in human history on you.
00:32:20.760 Okay?
00:32:21.220 That's what it is.
00:32:21.940 It's a tax.
00:32:23.220 It's a tax for the printing of money to let the elites to bail themselves out.
00:32:27.660 And now you've got Ukraine, where they've determined.
00:32:31.120 I'm going to bring in Monica Crowe.
00:32:32.180 Monica, I want to quote from you.
00:32:33.740 You know, Mourning Mika.
00:32:34.940 I'm on the Mourning Mika all the time.
00:32:36.600 And one of the reasons is that she's the daughter of, and Alex Jones and I disagree slightly on this,
00:32:41.740 not about how important he was as a thinker, but maybe some of his actions.
00:32:45.060 Mourning Mika is the daughter of one of the most brilliant geopolitical thinkers in the 20th century,
00:32:51.680 I think much more profound than Henry Kissinger.
00:32:55.080 And one of the reasons is, you know, he foresaw this technological age coming,
00:32:59.560 the time between two ages of artificial intelligence and advances technology, Dr. Brzezinski.
00:33:05.420 And Dr. Brzezinski wrote in the chess, and I think his book, Monica, you would know this,
00:33:09.120 I think the Global Chess Board, where he's talking about geopolitics.
00:33:12.600 I think this book was written in the late 90s or early 2000s.
00:33:16.960 He said, the United States may have to determine how to cope with regional coalitions
00:33:21.460 that seek to push America out of Eurasia, thereby threatening America's status as a global power.
00:33:27.500 Potentially, the most dangerous scenario, can you please put this on the screen where I highlight,
00:33:31.960 the most dangerous scenario would be a grand coalition of, wait for it, China, Russia, and perhaps Iran,
00:33:41.580 an anti-hegemonic coalition, united not by ideology, but by complimentary grievances.
00:33:50.780 Can we get that? Yeah, there it is right there.
00:33:52.940 That was written by Dr. Brzezinski, and this is what we've warned about,
00:33:56.460 and this is what President Trump took on the CCP and kept Russia at bay from ever pardoning with him.
00:34:03.260 This is where all the people that were hounding him about Russia, Russia, Russia,
00:34:06.820 are the same people pushing Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine, and they're leading us down a road to perdition.
00:34:12.840 This is why Trump, in this situation, with not just the New York, but the Jack Smith and the Justice Department,
00:34:19.980 Merrick Garland, by going after him with lawfare and making up stuff,
00:34:24.180 will unite this country.
00:34:26.560 This is the law of unintended consequences.
00:34:28.760 They're going to unite because people are going to finally wake up and go,
00:34:30.760 hang on for a second, my financial situation is terrible.
00:34:33.340 There's wars everywhere.
00:34:34.240 You know, Trump, I've been told Trump's a bad guy, he's an evil guy, he's a chaotic guy,
00:34:38.860 but boy, I remember back in 17, 18, 19, before the CCP unleashed a bioweapon,
00:34:45.740 things were pretty good, pretty damn good for me in the country,
00:34:48.760 and not just that, in 2020 he did a pretty solid job too when they threw everything in the world at him.
00:34:53.800 Monica Crowley, your assessment of what's happened in Moscow this week,
00:34:58.220 your observations and analysis, please.
00:35:00.520 Well, thank you so much for having me, as always, Steve.
00:35:05.240 And I just want to make a quick point about what you just said and how you framed
00:35:09.860 what President Trump accomplished in four short years.
00:35:14.240 The fact that it's such a fresh memory, you know, the Trump administration isn't the Reagan administration.
00:35:21.460 The American people don't have to reach back 40 years for some sort of vague memory
00:35:26.680 of a booming economy and world peace.
00:35:30.260 They only have to go back two and a half years, three years, pre-COVID,
00:35:35.020 to remember what it was like and what President Trump delivered.
00:35:38.560 So that's the first point.
00:35:40.620 The second point I want to make, and this came out of what you just said, Steve,
00:35:44.660 is really critical for the American people to understand with regard to the Russia hoax.
00:35:50.280 My first boss in life was President Richard Nixon during the last years of his life.
00:35:57.600 Richard Nixon, as president, opened the door to China in 1972, began diplomatic relations with China.
00:36:05.620 There were many motives for why he did that.
00:36:08.960 But the premier motive was geostrategic.
00:36:12.020 It was geopolitical because at the time, the Soviet Union was expanding their military footprint,
00:36:19.420 expanding and modernizing their nuclear forces, their conventional forces.
00:36:23.400 So you had growing Soviet power at a time where the United States' military power was being drained by the war in Vietnam.
00:36:33.660 So we couldn't counter the Soviet Union in the kind of aggressive way that Reagan ultimately did a couple of years later.
00:36:40.500 We couldn't do that at the time Nixon was president.
00:36:44.040 And so Nixon opened the door to China, began detente separately with the Soviet Union.
00:36:50.600 But his main objective with China was to use China as a counterweight against growing Soviet power.
00:36:58.520 Now, fast forward 40 years, you get President Trump in office.
00:37:02.920 And what is he confronted with?
00:37:04.840 He's confronted with growing Chinese power.
00:37:08.340 And so what he wanted to do was improve relations with Russia in order to use Russia as a counterweight against the Chinese.
00:37:19.360 It was a reverse Nixon move.
00:37:22.440 And you know what they did, Steve?
00:37:25.120 The fact that the deep state and Trump's enemies, the globalists, all settled on the Russia hoax.
00:37:33.000 So why Russia?
00:37:34.340 Well, now you know.
00:37:35.900 They destroyed or attempted to destroy Donald Trump with and for what he wanted to do with Russia geopolitically.
00:37:45.280 Why?
00:37:46.060 Because so many of them are compromised, starting with Joe Biden at the top.
00:37:50.600 But so many of them have been captured.
00:37:53.480 It's elite capture by the CCP.
00:37:55.680 Very successful strategy over many years.
00:37:58.160 They're so deeply beholden to the CCP, to the Chinese market, to their business deals with China, that they did not want President Trump to improve relations with Russia, to try to aggressively go after the Chinese.
00:38:17.500 Now, that being said, I want to make another big third point here about what we just saw coming out of Moscow.
00:38:23.920 The United States has spent decades since 1949 in the communist revolution and the communist takeover of China.
00:38:33.660 We have spent so much time, energy, and resources trying to keep these two great powers apart from exploiting the Sino-Soviet split in the early 1960s, to Nixon's opening to China, to what President Trump wanted to do with improving relations with China to counterbalance or Russia to counterbalance China.
00:39:00.400 And in two and a half short years, Joe Biden's weakness, and therefore America's weakness, has driven these two countries together.
00:39:18.300 And while this three-day state visit was going on, this president, deeply compromised by the CCP, was hosting sitcom stars, including the cast of Ted Lasso at the White House.
00:39:33.600 I'm a fan of Ted Lasso, watching the new season now, there's Jason Sudeikis, but this is what this clown, fool, compromised hack of a president was doing,
00:39:46.040 while China and Russia are coming together to immediately, distinctly, and seriously jeopardize America's long-term, medium-term, and short-term interests economically, militarily, politically, and culturally.
00:40:03.660 As you know, the sign we have a backup, we don't believe in conspiracy theories, but there's no coincidences.
00:40:10.860 On the moment that this historic meeting happens, okay, at the very moment that Comer, and remember, Comer is a decent, hard-working guy.
00:40:21.160 You see the profile of him in the New York Times.
00:40:22.800 See the New York Times, couldn't find anything on him.
00:40:25.560 He's not a fire breather, but he has methodically gone and got the bank records.
00:40:29.500 At the very moment, think about it for a second, that you prove beyond any doubt that the Biden crime family is on the direct payroll of the Chinese Communist Party.
00:40:39.460 CEF, the company, that is a wholly owned company by the PLA and by the CCP, joint ownership of the People's Liberation Army and the Chinese Communist Party as its capital markets provider.
00:40:51.060 It's a capital markets company, not just an energy trading company.
00:40:54.100 It's a capital markets provider on one belt, one road, the initial foundational element of taking over the Eurasian landmass because these guys think decades and decades ahead, right?
00:41:03.600 At the very moment you see the receipts from the bank in Congress, in open hearings, at the moment you see the bank receipts where they had the money wired to them, to the Biden crime family, you have this situation in New York City, and it's all the media is covered in 24 hours a day.
00:41:24.380 It's the reason we won't cover it, that much of it.
00:41:26.560 It's totally, it's completely rigged, and it's beneath intelligence people's time to spend on it because of what's happening in the world.
00:41:35.660 Monica Crowley.
00:41:37.720 Yeah, I mean, now they've got this great shiny object with the, we're assuming the impending indictment of Donald Trump.
00:41:46.580 They threw that out there, and of course, the press and everybody does exactly what they're told right on cue, they go chase the shiny object, rather than focusing on the bigger things that are happening in the world that are incredibly dangerous to the United States and to every American.
00:42:02.960 Whether it's China and Russia coming together in a geostrategic and economic partnership, which, by the way, Steve, is going to take decades to unravel, just as it took us decades to continue to keep them apart, it's going to take decades to unravel this new partnership that also now includes Iran and, of course, North Korea.
00:42:26.020 You've got a new axis of evil developing.
00:42:28.640 Look, Steve, what is increasingly clear is that Joe Biden is an actual Manchurian candidate, and I mean that literally.
00:42:36.600 He is a Manchurian candidate that has become president.
00:42:40.380 And as we unravel the origins of COVID and what went down in 2020, and the fact that the globalists and the deep state literally shut down the global economy to stop one man, Donald Trump, and I said this to you at CPAC on this show, we are going to find out that that was one part of the equation, stopping Trump.
00:43:03.800 The other part of the equation, Steve, was selecting and installing their own choice, which was Joe Biden's perfect control.
00:43:15.660 Monica, hang on one second.
00:43:17.080 We're going to take a short commercial break.
00:43:18.560 Monica Crowley is going to join us on the other side.

00:45:57.320 I'm going to talk more about the financial situation after the break.
00:46:00.540 In fact, I got Jason Brown from COVID tax release.
00:46:03.060 We're going to talk about how you can get some money back that you were due.
00:46:07.200 Right.
00:46:07.720 You're due.
00:46:08.260 Just hang on for a second.
00:46:10.000 Monica.
00:46:11.280 Monica, I think you're one of the Joe Scarborough is trashing the Ivy League populace.
00:46:15.020 I would include you as an Ivy League populace nationalist.
00:46:17.200 But I want to about Biden and your issue about Biden as a Manchurian candidate.
00:46:22.560 I want to go back.
00:46:23.740 And this is why in the Ides of March we had that 12 minute cold open where we put together different aspects of Julius Caesar's or Shakespeare's Julius Caesar,
00:46:33.400 including the part where Trump, they did it in Central Park where Trump was Caesar and they assassinated him.
00:46:39.560 The evil that men do lives beyond them.
00:46:42.960 It lives beyond the grave.
00:46:44.420 The good they do is interred with them.
00:46:46.920 The evil that men do live on past their lives.
00:46:51.400 The good they do is interred in their graves.
00:46:54.180 Right.
00:46:54.380 That's Shakespeare.
00:46:55.040 That's Mark Anthony's speech.
00:46:56.560 Monica Crowley.
00:46:57.280 That is basically your assessment of Joe Biden.
00:47:01.160 What you're saying about Joe Biden is even when Trump comes back and beats its Biden or Newsom, whoever it is, because Trump's going to win the presidency.
00:47:07.540 We've got a we got we got a 10 times heavier lift than we had in 16 and 17.
00:47:15.280 And the reason is what these people have done to our economy, to the financial system, to having the Federal Reserve just print this out of control, print this money.
00:47:24.920 The spending's out of control and the not just weakness.
00:47:28.520 This is not about weakness.
00:47:30.060 This is about this is about moves they've made that have put this country in peril, put this country in peril, including now uniting the worst elements.
00:47:41.460 The KGB in Moscow, the CCP in Beijing, the Mullahs in Persia, the House of Saud, our allies, quote unquote, in the in the in the Persian Gulf.
00:47:54.400 You got Iraq's going to cut a deal with them to take it into to take a Chinese currency for the oil.
00:47:59.860 You got Pakistan's thrown in with them.
00:48:01.720 The radical jihadis there.
00:48:03.360 You got many me in in North Korea and a couple of the stands.
00:48:07.760 They're uniting the Eurasian landmass in a way that's never been allowed, never happened before Monica Crowley.
00:48:15.040 Yeah, and all of this is by design.
00:48:17.480 It's all intentional that, you know, you've heard of the law of unintended consequences.
00:48:22.660 This is the law of intended consequences.
00:48:26.060 This is all thoroughly predictable.
00:48:28.700 American weakness is provocative.
00:48:30.620 It does tempt the bad guys to advance and expand on their own interests.
00:48:37.900 And frankly, you know, people get mad at me when I say this, but it's the absolute truth.
00:48:42.060 If Xi and Putin and the Mullahs in Iran and Kim sitting in Pyongyang, if they didn't seek to advance against America and against America's interests and advance their own interests, they'd be derelict in their own duty.
00:48:58.500 They're only taking full advantage of a window of opportunity provided by a weak American president.
00:49:06.760 So they're taking full advantage.
00:49:08.600 And what we now have, Steve, is a perfect storm of America's adversaries all coming together and aligning.
00:49:17.180 Look, it is an iron law of international relations.
00:49:21.520 And I learned this when I was at Columbia Graduate School.
00:49:23.940 And by the way, I think you're exactly right.
00:49:26.420 We need to form our own, like, America First populist Ivy League group, right?
00:49:33.020 Our own skull and bones.
00:49:34.860 We've had enough of the globalist skull and bones.
00:49:37.040 We need our own.
00:49:37.740 But look, it's an iron law of international relations that weaker powers will always flock to the stronger power for protection and for, you know, political protection, economic trade, you name it.
00:49:53.380 And so what we're seeing now, because the U.S. is weak, both in real terms and getting weaker and perceived as weak, you've got all of these other countries now flocking to what looks like the stronger guy on the block.
00:50:09.280 And that's China.
00:50:10.680 Remember that China's goal is global domination.
00:50:13.920 Of course.
00:50:14.840 What does that mean?
00:50:15.980 That means a unipolar world.
00:50:19.300 During the Cold War, we had a bipolar world, right?
00:50:25.520 And then after the collapse of the Soviet Union, we went to a unipolar world with the United States as the tentpole power.
00:50:33.800 Now we have sort of slipped back into a bipolar world with the United States and China.
00:50:39.940 But China's goal is to get rid of the United States as one of the tentpole powers and make itself as the unipolar power.
00:50:48.220 And so, of course, all of these other lesser powers are dying to be junior members of this new global emerging with China at the top.
00:51:00.580 And, you know, while all this is happening, while Rome is burning, we've got our own president whistling past the graveyard hosting sitcom stars.
00:51:11.700 Monica, how can people get to your podcast?
00:51:13.800 How do they get to your writings and social media?
00:51:16.440 Oh, thank you, Steve.

00:51:33.360 We're going to do a deep dive into all of these issues.
00:51:35.860 And on Friday, Steve, I've got Tara Reid, who credibly accused Joe Biden of sexual assault.
00:51:42.900 Media completely buried her story.
00:51:45.500 We're going to have her on.
00:51:46.400 She's going to talk about Stormy Daniels, Donald Trump, and her own story.
00:51:50.040 So check out the Monica Crowley podcast.

00:52:02.980 Very serious charge.
