Bannon's War Room - Episode 3444： MAGA Puts Johnson On Notice

00:00:00.000 Last night, we got a lot of results. I was telling viewers that we heard from more states and more voters last night than any other point this year and big states.

00:00:09.160 So the population represented last night was roughly over 40 percent of America.

00:00:14.820 And so I'm curious what you make of what they're saying.

00:00:17.360 Biden's not running with real strong opponents, but we're seeing numbers that rival the Obama reelection numbers in terms of his unifying the Democratic Party, even amidst the issues you mentioned.

00:00:27.840 And we see Trump putting up numbers that got Haley out, but don't yet show party unity.

00:00:33.360 What do you take from the numbers last night?

00:00:35.660 Well, I don't take. I mean, they both have command and leads all the way through.

00:00:42.000 President Biden did not have, you know, very much opposition.

00:00:44.900 Haley, you know, ran a gutsy campaign. She got 25, 30 percent in a lot of places. 1.00

00:00:49.760 But this is what I really think. We're going to have a hard time replicating the 2020 coalition, particularly among under 30 and non-white. 0.99

00:00:57.840 And for President Biden to come back to win this thing, we're going to have to do better with kind of middle voters, swing voters, loosely aligned, which the good news is we are doing that.

00:01:09.340 We're not winning elections on turnout. We're actually winning elections with, I don't know a better word than swing voters.

00:01:16.740 I'd say less hardly aligned voters. We're doing pretty well.

00:01:20.160 And I see that across the board. We're going to have to do that.

00:01:24.360 We cannot rely on Democratic turnout to carry the day for us.

00:01:29.200 It's striking to hear you say that because, James, the under 30 was the single largest gap, largest edge Biden had demographically over Trump last time.

00:01:39.660 Well, black voters, for sure. But the black numbers are tepid. 1.00

00:01:45.560 I mean, we've got to address that. And I don't know if it's possible to replicate the 2020.

00:01:51.160 And the under 30 is decidedly unenthusiastic or detached right now.

00:01:57.780 I mean, that's pretty clear.

00:01:59.040 Now, what I'm sure the White House would say is, look, and at the end of the day, they're going to come back.

00:02:05.580 The question is, did they come back in sufficient numbers with sufficient turnout?

00:02:09.340 I just don't think we can rely on the same coalition this November as we did November four years ago.

00:02:16.160 I really don't. I'd like to be proven wrong. Trust me.

00:02:19.680 I think the other thing. So I'm torn on this, too, because I'm thinking about, you know, sort of I think we've we've we've extinguished 2020 from our memories in many ways because it was traumatic.

00:02:30.360 But the other thing that I think is really important for the Biden campaign is a vision of the future.

00:02:34.780 And I do think that, like, to go back to what you're saying about following him on the trail, like I could tell you the Biden 2020 platform.

00:02:40.700 It was to get covid under control.

00:02:42.600 It was to then begin bringing the economy out of the depths through investment in the middle class and through an infrastructure investment and to rejoin Paris and invest in clean energy and to restore our ally, you know, our relationships worldwide.

00:02:57.520 Like that. Yeah, that's what they did.

00:02:59.880 Like they said they were going to do it. They did it.

00:03:02.140 I can't really tell you right now what the what the second term Biden vision looks like yet.

00:03:08.940 And I do think that's I mean, when you talk about like elections about the future, right, Americans are very future oriented people.

00:03:15.520 That to me strikes me, particularly going to the State of the Union tomorrow, which is a kind of unveiling.

00:03:20.060 I've been thinking about how important that is. What do you think?

00:03:22.300 Well, I think it makes the State of the Union really important because I do think that it's always in an election year, kind of the kickoff of the incumbent president's reelection campaign, hearing the the positive vision rather than the here's all the reasons you don't want the Republicans back in the White House again.

00:03:38.560 I think that's that's what we're going to get. And and so we'll see.

00:03:42.360 But it has to be said that it has been a remarkable few years of Republican policy and particularly with the Supreme Court, like reproductive rights.

00:03:50.980 Like what's the Democratic agenda on reproductive rights to stop the Republicans from doing more of what they've been doing?

00:03:58.080 Like, can you articulate that in a positive way? Maybe you can change your verb tenses.

00:04:02.300 But really, it's about trying to stop what the Republicans have done on reproductive rights and what they're continuing to do, what the Republicans have done and what they're continuing to do on democracy and the rule of law.

00:04:13.100 But I mean, there is a lot of stuff in terms of this very unusual Republican Party led by Donald Trump that the Democratic Party now exists to stop.

00:04:22.080 Yes. And that's a bulwark.

00:04:23.400 It's yeah, it's a bulwark to say we don't want to radically cashier who we are as a country to become a strongman authoritarian dictatorship.

00:04:32.000 I've got to tell you, it's just not Nikki Haley. It's Glenn Youngkin also.

00:04:35.560 I mean, it's it's obvious now that certain people have a problem with President Trump.

00:04:39.700 You've got to get over the problem. We need to unite this in the final and the drive and the drive through Labor Day all the way to November.

00:04:46.800 It's got to start now. President Trump's already challenged.

00:04:49.940 I want to make sure everybody say he's challenged Biden to debate like starting Monday.

00:04:54.380 Let's go. Let's get a couple of mics. Not a big deal.

00:04:58.180 Toss some questions out or maybe it's just a cage match. Maybe maybe no questions.

00:05:01.640 They just go at it and debate.

00:05:05.020 Game on right now.

00:05:07.220 This phony State of the Union tomorrow, but another waste of time from the illegitimate Biden regime.

00:05:12.280 President Trump's on offense. That's where he's best on offense.

00:05:16.800 This is the primal scream of a dying regime.

00:05:23.540 Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people.

00:05:28.780 I got a free shot. All these networks lying about the people.

00:05:32.940 The people have had a belly full of it. I know you don't like hearing that.

00:05:36.460 I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it.

00:05:39.080 It's going to happen.

00:05:40.360 And where do people like that go to share the big line?

00:05:43.040 I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.

00:05:50.560 Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?

00:05:54.280 If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.

00:06:00.700 War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Vance.

00:06:03.880 Okay, Thursday, 7 March, Year of Our Lord, 2024.

00:06:13.360 You're in the War Room.

00:06:15.340 A lot to do today and a lot that broke overnight.

00:06:18.300 It's the phony State of the Union tonight with the illegitimate usurper who lost the election

00:06:27.780 and then had people like Mark Elias and others steal it.

00:06:34.520 So we've got to sit through this thing again.

00:06:36.760 But it's a good test because you see, and look, that's Carville and that's Hayes.

00:06:42.800 And look, I know you hate the sound of their voice.

00:06:44.700 I got that.

00:06:45.180 But they're two of the smartest guys they got.

00:06:46.880 And they're sitting there laying it out that they know they've got a problem.

00:06:50.840 I mean, Carville said it last night.

00:06:52.720 Couldn't be more direct that it looks grim for them if you look at the math.

00:06:58.340 Including part of the math no one's talking about is that 10 percent of Biden's voters, quote, unquote.

00:07:03.160 Remember, their number is 81 million.

00:07:05.480 We don't believe that, but they're saying up to 8 million people that voted for Biden will vote for Trump.

00:07:12.440 If you look at likely voters, it's even more impressive, right?

00:07:17.680 So tonight, and what order am I going to take this in?

00:07:23.920 We'll take Yunkin. 1.00

00:07:24.820 Hang on a second, but I'm going to talk about Johnson.

00:07:26.940 Johnson and Yunkin.

00:07:28.440 Well, first off, Yunkin, we put a shot across his bow yesterday. 0.99

00:07:31.680 Here's what we're tired of, these guys that are, they act like, remember when sometimes little boys, 9, 10 years, 11 years old, you know, they don't want to do something.

00:07:42.280 And if you need them to do it, they're moping and dragging their heels and making a big deal about it.

00:07:48.240 That's what Yunkin and some of these people, Juan Siskimani, all these guys.

00:07:52.080 Hey, here's the bottom line.

00:07:53.440 You're either on the train or you're off the train.

00:07:55.180 And if you're off the train, you're really going to be off the train.

00:07:57.020 Because the country's at stake right now, we don't want to hear any of your vanity, any of your future politics, what your donors say.

00:08:04.120 We don't care about any of that.

00:08:05.280 Here's what we care about.

00:08:06.080 Shoulder to the wheel, full commitment, all in, not half in.

00:08:11.660 So we had to put a shot across the bow. 0.90

00:08:13.460 You know, I got very, you know, ticked off by neocon Nikki after spending all the time in the RNC and Bossy and Ron and all that.

00:08:23.380 And all two years, you know, nothing done, all this money spent, and it comes crashing down around them like we said it would.

00:08:30.540 You know, and she gets up there with her four minutes and, you know, doesn't even endorse Trump.

00:08:35.820 She's going to be a big shot and have him talk about her and maybe show a little leg to no labels and, you know, play around with that.

00:08:43.040 And her endorsement, the Nikki Haley donors and Nikki Haley voters, she doesn't have any voters.

00:08:47.540 They're all Democrats or independently Democrat.

00:08:49.980 Numbers couldn't be clearer.

00:08:51.800 She's got nothing.

00:08:53.160 But if she decides not to endorse, who cares?

00:08:55.340 I would have rejected the endorsement of Mitch McConnell.

00:09:01.880 Sundance, I think it's Sundance over Conservative Treehouse, has a great analysis about what's going on here.

00:09:06.500 They're still trying to plot and wire the Senate against Trump.

00:09:10.000 They're trying to do the institutionalist or trying to take a last stand against Trump and Trumpism and MAGA by hardwiring these institutions.

00:09:19.220 That's what this is all about.

00:09:20.640 So we did that.

00:09:21.520 We did that in the five o'clock hour.

00:09:23.120 I think I did that in the B block, the first one.

00:09:26.120 So that was around 515 to 530.

00:09:27.900 And then just gave him another love tap, you know, Yunkin, another love tap.

00:09:32.540 Just let him know we got the hairy eyeball on you. 1.00

00:09:34.560 We got the eyeball on you.

00:09:36.060 And, you know, we've been you're on the clock.

00:09:38.200 We've been noticing.

00:09:39.460 So at 855 p.m. last night, nine o'clock, after I'm sure his political consultant, because everything they do is consultant driven, everything.

00:09:48.100 So after he checked with his donors and after he checked with David Rubenstein, who still is, you know, he's David Rubenstein's boy.

00:09:56.280 Right.

00:09:56.520 Rubenstein, who is a kid Trump hater and, of course, resigned for everything.

00:10:01.100 That was another tell.

00:10:01.820 He resigned from Kennedy Senate because he knew we were going to fire him and run him out of town.

00:10:05.440 The very first moment that President Trump takes over, one of the first actions of the 20s, get rid of Rubenstein.

00:10:11.220 That's who Yunkin reports of 855 p.m. last night.

00:10:14.180 Yunkin finally gives.

00:10:15.220 It's not a full throated endorsement.

00:10:16.600 It's one of these Yunkin. 1.00

00:10:18.060 Oh, the country and what we're doing.

00:10:19.580 We don't care what you think about the country.

00:10:21.880 What we care about is you try to turn out your voters, which is about 20 percent.

00:10:25.900 MAGA is going to turn out Virginia. 0.90

00:10:26.980 We've got a chance to take the Commonwealth.

00:10:29.280 My beloved Commonwealth as a native of Virginia, which you are not, Yunkin. 1.00

00:10:35.440 But you've got to put your shoulder to the wheel.

00:10:38.060 You know, having to have the war room put a shot across your belt twice for not doing a – after Super Tuesday and you do it the night after at 9 o'clock at night, 855 p.m.

00:10:51.560 Eastern Standard Time to be exact, it doesn't cut it, doesn't hack it.

00:10:56.640 Not good.

00:10:57.600 We need to see a lot more effort.

00:10:58.800 You've got to pick it up.

00:11:01.280 Juan Siskamani, another one, another beauty.

00:11:03.000 Juan Siskamani, the Rhodes Scholar out there in Arizona. 0.98

00:11:07.020 I'm not saying he's the dumbest guy in Congress, but there might be a race for that, right? 0.97

00:11:12.900 He's got to prove to me it's a three-digit IQ. 1.00

00:11:16.140 He comes in with some mealy mouth.

00:11:18.600 I hope he's getting super primaried out there in Arizona.

00:11:22.140 We can't have this – we're not going to have these wishy-washy guys.

00:11:25.780 Note to Siskamani, your patron Kevin McCarthy got turfed out. 0.84

00:11:30.080 And you should come in full-throated.

00:11:33.460 Arizona is MAGA country.

00:11:35.320 Arizona is Trump country.

00:11:36.960 Arizona, we must win to win the Senate and to win – to keep the House and add to the House and the presidency.

00:11:45.500 So Arizona is kind of important.

00:11:47.100 And we don't need like a nine-year-old boy, oh, in a mealy mouth, mealy mouth endorsement.

00:11:54.560 We need full-throated, I'm all in.

00:11:57.280 I may not love President Trump, but I'm all in, 100 percent, all in.

00:12:02.020 Not this kind of, you know, kicking the dirt.

00:12:03.860 No, Mom and Dad, do I have to?

00:12:05.360 I don't want to.

00:12:06.020 I don't want to.

00:12:07.200 I don't want to. 0.99

00:12:09.460 It's pretty pathetic. 0.95

00:12:10.480 And, yes, we are – we have our number two pencils out and we're putting – we're putting notes in the black book. 0.97

00:12:20.280 We have long memories here.

00:12:23.300 We need to see effort.

00:12:24.840 We need to see actions.

00:12:25.960 We don't just put some tweet up and some mealy mouth endorsement.

00:12:29.500 No.

00:12:29.940 We need to see action, action, action.

00:12:32.860 We need to take Arizona and we need to take the Commonwealth of Virginia because we're going to run up the score here.

00:12:39.220 And Virginia is going to be one and maybe even Minnesota and, hey, maybe New Mexico.

00:12:43.520 I got it.

00:12:44.220 People are saying, don't be greedy, Steve.

00:12:45.420 Just give me the 270.

00:12:46.420 You know, 270, absolute mandatory, must-have.

00:12:50.020 Everything else is optionality.

00:12:51.860 But, hey, let's get a mandate while we're at it. 0.99

00:12:55.040 You're going to see tonight this fuck this thing. 0.99

00:12:56.560 So this is about Johnson. 0.99

00:12:58.920 Number one, I don't know why we did this.

00:13:01.380 You offered this after Super Tuesday.

00:13:03.280 Now, I realize there may be some thinking that it was going to be, oh, the Trump trial is going to start on the 4th.

00:13:08.460 Well, no offense, bro.

00:13:09.800 When you sent out the invitation, any sentient human being would have understood, and maybe your staff, if you would check with somebody that understands legal, or maybe even the great Mike Davis, that there was no chance the trial was going to start on the 4th.

00:13:23.880 So I don't understand why we're even here tonight after giving this guy a platform after Super Tuesday.

00:13:29.080 But, hey, I'm not going to whine and moan.

00:13:31.720 It is what it is.

00:13:32.720 But, Speaker Johnson, since you've been a complete frickin' disaster and everything else, here's what you've got to man up to. 0.72

00:13:39.080 I don't want to see you popping up and down when Biden is sitting there telling lies. 0.95

00:13:45.520 Lie after lie after lie.

00:13:47.560 Remember, you're one of the guys that threw in with us to make sure that we could check and see if his electors and his wind, quote-unquote, could even be certified, which it couldn't.

00:13:57.540 We knew it couldn't in places like, randomly, Georgia, Arizona, Michigan, Wisconsin.

00:14:05.040 Johnson, collectively, remember, it was only, I think, 30,000 votes, 42,000 votes that Biden really won the presidency by.

00:14:14.280 Arizona, Georgia, and I think Wisconsin.

00:14:16.060 Take those three.

00:14:16.860 Boom.

00:14:18.620 So, Johnson, you're unnoticed, and we've got the hairy eyeball on you tonight.

00:14:22.920 We don't want to see you popping up every time and doing standing ovations.

00:14:25.780 If there's something meaningful that really is for the country, that's your call.

00:14:31.300 But when he's talking about the invasion of our country, he's talking about, you know, what you're a party to because, hey, you signed on to the McCarthy deal.

00:14:38.260 You had every chance to beat it.

00:14:39.860 You know, all this spending, you're going to have the hairy eyeball on you.

00:14:44.420 You can't be bouncing up and down.

00:14:45.860 You can't be clapping.

00:14:46.760 You ought to be stony-faced, stern.

00:14:49.520 You've got a biblical worldview.

00:14:51.120 Why don't you go Old Testament prophet on us tonight?

00:14:53.500 Can you do that?

00:14:54.300 Can you help us out here?

00:14:57.180 Short break.

00:14:57.820 Back in a moment.

00:14:59.680 As we head toward a presidential election in November, one thing you can be sure of.

00:15:04.400 2024 will be a tumultuous year like no other.

00:15:09.100 How will your hard-earned savings fare during this year?

00:15:12.180 You're already seeing the impacts of inflation at the pump, the grocery store.

00:15:16.560 The dollar continues to lose buying power quicker than your wages can increase.

00:15:21.040 How are you protecting your savings?

00:15:24.300 Consider diversifying with gold from Birch Gold Group.

00:15:27.540 For decades, gold has been the choice of investors and central banks to hedge against inflation.

00:16:17.620 Action.

00:16:18.400 Action.

00:16:18.720 War Room.

00:16:20.520 Here's your host, Stephen K.

00:16:22.560 Bannon.

00:16:27.680 State of the Union.

00:16:29.500 So Johnson's on notice.

00:16:31.060 We're going to keep score here.

00:16:32.620 And look, if it's something that institutionally should be done, we have no, you know, although

00:16:38.000 Biden's a usurper and I think should be taken in that consideration, we can understand how,

00:16:45.640 you know, for, it was a propriety, you have to do certain things, but all this popping

00:16:51.040 up and down and, you know, McCarthy, no, we're not cheering this thing on.

00:16:54.240 This, this is a fight to save our country.

00:16:56.820 And this is the biggest audience he's going to have tonight.

00:16:59.240 And people ought to know in opposition where we stand.

00:17:04.320 Because this is not normal times.

00:17:07.820 Stolen elections have catastrophic consequences.

00:17:10.340 And he has visited catastrophic consequences on this country.

00:17:15.660 It's time now to hold into account.

00:17:18.340 It's game on.

00:17:20.240 President Trump and, you know, we recommended it, but I knew it was in President Trump's

00:17:24.240 heart, but he's coming on big.

00:17:25.560 And I agree.

00:17:26.000 I love the way the team around him supporting this.

00:17:29.000 He's thrown down saying, hey, Biden, he's like friends, Fresno State, anywhere, anytime,

00:17:33.180 anyplace.

00:17:33.720 Boom.

00:17:33.940 Let's put a couple of mics up money. 0.94

00:17:35.140 Let's go.

00:17:35.660 So nation needs to see not simply, it's not about Biden's age or how feeble he is, is

00:17:42.060 that he can't defend his destruction of the country.

00:17:46.340 And Donald Trump will be all up in his grill on offense.

00:17:51.400 Let me shift.

00:17:52.360 And actually, you know what?

00:17:53.100 I'm in a great mood today.

00:17:53.980 I know it's coming across as, you know, who, what B got in Bannon's bonnet?

00:17:57.860 It's not.

00:17:58.540 I'm just, I'm, I'm really, really, really not concerned, but just I've had it.

00:18:04.500 But with these Republican grifters who just draft off president, Youngkin, you're not 0.78

00:18:11.040 even governor if it's not for a massive MAGA turnout.

00:18:14.180 Remember, we're the ones that did it, although we were not fans for the good of the team, for

00:18:19.720 the good of the cause.

00:18:21.440 We held our peace and work like crazy.

00:18:23.780 John Fredericks did an amazing job.

00:18:25.680 All those rallies, all that pushing and had a massive MAGA turnout.

00:18:30.400 Not so much in, in 22, excuse me, in 23, because we knew what you were trying to do.

00:18:35.900 We were trying to use that to springboard to President Trump.

00:18:37.720 So MAGA did not turn out.

00:18:38.940 And guess what?

00:18:39.440 You did not take the House or the Senate.

00:18:41.840 Sorry about that.

00:18:43.700 Tough break for a swell guy.

00:18:46.080 But you need to be all in now.

00:18:47.860 And it shouldn't take war room to put a couple of shots across your bow to wake your consultants

00:18:51.940 up to then say, hey, this is going to get serious.

00:18:54.380 These guys are war room.

00:18:55.320 They're kind of rough trade.

00:18:56.860 And this is going to get real.

00:18:58.620 So at 855 at night, 855 p.m., you put out some mealy mouth tweet that you support President

00:19:04.580 Trump.

00:19:06.540 And Siskamani, the same thing.

00:19:08.180 I hope people in Arizona are on point here.

00:19:10.680 We got to stop playing games.

00:19:11.820 We got to start playing games internally.

00:19:12.920 You saw it, we broke McConnell, although a Sundance and Conservatory has got an amazing

00:19:17.960 piece, not long, talks about what they're doing, how they're plotting and planning nonstop.

00:19:22.740 The heroes and patriots down in Texas saw this with Ken Paxson stood up, sweeping victories,

00:19:29.760 put John Cornyn on notice.

00:19:32.100 No way he's going to be leader because he's not going to be a senator again.

00:19:35.160 They're not going to pick a guy that's going to be a leader with no power.

00:19:37.200 It's going to be under tremendous pressure for it to be primary.

00:19:43.320 And I hope it's Ken Paxson.

00:19:44.420 If not, there'll be another MAGA hero down there to do it.

00:19:46.600 The bench down in Texas is great because why?

00:19:49.140 The grassroots are finally staying up.

00:19:50.560 This is what's happening all over the country.

00:19:51.980 This is a populist revolt.

00:19:53.240 Tim Miller has got a piece over in Bulwark about Ken Griffin and how Ken Griffin played all

00:20:00.760 these kind of problems, solution providers, you know, guys, and they all got smoked in

00:20:05.400 the primaries by MAGA candidates. 0.60

00:20:08.240 We don't need Ken Griffin coming in with a bunch of goofballs that are going to be solutions 0.94

00:20:13.020 providers. 0.64

00:20:13.640 There's no donor that's ever provided any solution.

00:20:16.480 None.

00:20:17.780 They all want, it's the same old thing.

00:20:19.760 This is a bizarre and they just want their guys in there to make sure they get as much

00:20:24.420 out of the bizarre as possible.

00:20:26.120 That's the way this place runs.

00:20:27.800 People know that.

00:20:29.140 And he's one of the biggest never Trump guys.

00:20:32.700 And Nikki Haley playing footsie, at least DeSantis called her out. 0.92

00:20:35.300 He said, Hey, the deal's a deal.

00:20:36.340 We agree.

00:20:36.720 We're going to do this. 0.90

00:20:37.500 And, but now just drag her in like a petulant nine-year-old. 1.00

00:20:41.220 I'm not interested. 0.97

00:20:42.140 Screw Nikki Haley. 1.00

00:20:42.900 We don't need her endorsement.

00:20:44.120 Oh, we got to get the Nikki Haley voters. 0.85

00:20:45.960 They're all Democrats.

00:20:47.080 They're all going to vote for Biden anyway.

00:20:48.580 The exit polls show that we don't need her donors.

00:20:52.700 Donors aren't going to give Trump any money.

00:20:54.080 So let's not make it.

00:20:54.760 Let's not raise her profile by doing that.

00:20:57.780 Okay.

00:20:58.180 I want to cut to, I want to go to Rome.

00:20:59.880 Ben, I've got to tell the story.

00:21:02.260 We have started a, a, uh, academy for the Judeo-Christian West.

00:21:07.060 It's essentially a gladiator school for modern information age, political warfare.

00:21:12.140 And we're going to do it in a monastery in Rome.

00:21:15.040 It's kind of the headquarters, but do it throughout the United States and Western Europe and other

00:21:17.800 places.

00:21:18.200 Take people from Asia, take people from India, um, and, and train, uh, people of how to win 0.51

00:21:23.400 populist nationalists.

00:21:25.180 It was a populist nationalist academy.

00:21:27.320 Anyway, you got a taste of it.

00:21:28.960 What we did the other day in the force multiplier is kind of a summary of some of the practical

00:21:35.640 part of the schooling that we would do of how to teach you to be a force multiplier, how

00:21:39.600 to teach you to go out in the world and be a combatant, how to teach you to go out in

00:21:42.520 the world and be a, uh, both a gladiator and a legionnaire.

00:21:47.380 And we're going to do more of those.

00:21:48.660 I'll announce that we're going to go around the country and test these out.

00:21:51.360 So we're still doing the cabinet now yesterday after five years and, you know, millions of

00:21:57.800 dollars in defense, because they tried to shut us down.

00:22:01.120 They accused Ben Harnwell of all kinds of crimes, accused all kinds of crimes, totally and fully

00:22:06.080 acquitted in Rome.

00:22:07.380 This was the deep state coming after the war room.

00:22:10.820 This is the deep state coming after the populist nationalist movement.

00:22:13.660 This is the deep state coming after us.

00:22:16.660 And I'm so honored.

00:22:17.920 Ben Harnwell had every opportunity to roll over to cave.

00:22:21.360 To cut some deal, uh, he would not.

00:22:24.220 He stood in the breach the entire time facing big potential prison time, huge fines.

00:22:30.700 We hung together and said, no, we didn't, not only didn't do anything wrong, what we did

00:22:34.620 is absolutely right.

00:22:35.780 And we're going to continue it.

00:22:37.560 Ben Harnwell, you join us, uh, magnificent day and people don't know, Ben, the pressure

00:22:42.840 you and Navarro are two.

00:22:44.480 The people don't understand the pressure you guys have been in potential prison time.

00:22:48.160 And this is the deep state coming after the populist nationalist movement and going after

00:22:53.320 Ben Harnwell as a representative of that.

00:22:55.020 Your thoughts today on your full and total acquittal.

00:22:58.420 Now that Politico, the story's blowing up, particularly in Europe where they're not happy.

00:23:03.020 We want to let people know the, the academy is full blown.

00:23:06.960 We're working on it.

00:23:07.560 We did a test with the, uh, with the force multiplier, uh, school the other day.

00:23:12.400 People loved it.

00:23:13.520 Uh, we're going to do a couple more tests here in the next couple of weeks, maybe out

00:23:17.440 west somewhere in places to be, uh, we'll tell the audience.

00:23:20.680 So we want huge turnouts.

00:23:22.240 Uh, we're still talking to people in Europe.

00:23:23.940 I think we're gonna have some surprise announcements on that.

00:23:26.660 Ben Harnwell, uh, great day of victory in your courage.

00:23:30.480 You were threatened with everything, bankruptcy, prison, all of it.

00:23:33.660 You never faltered.

00:23:34.720 You never caved.

00:23:35.640 You never cut a deal.

00:23:36.920 You said we were right.

00:23:38.140 It's a hundred percent right.

00:23:39.060 And we're going to do the academy anyway.

00:23:40.440 So let's, let's throw down your thoughts, sir, on a day of your full and total exoneration.

00:23:47.940 Good morning, Steve.

00:23:49.180 And it's a real delight to be on the, the war room today.

00:23:52.300 Not as a reporter, as a correspondent, but actually as a subject of the news itself.

00:23:57.960 Well, look, anyone who read newspapers a couple of years ago would have seen Steve Bannon's

00:24:02.680 gladiator school in the Italian monastery in the press.

00:24:05.560 They saw that they might not have realized it was me, but they've seen that your collaborators

00:24:10.120 here, they'd been evicted from the monastery and the department for culture, the Italian

00:24:14.560 department for culture had said that they hadn't paid the reins, that they were mismanaging

00:24:19.040 the, the, um, the monastery, that they, that they participated in the tender to win the

00:24:24.480 lease of that monastery fraudulently.

00:24:26.600 Well, a couple of hours ago here in the central criminal court of Rome, Steve, yours truly

00:24:31.760 was absolutely exonerated.

00:24:33.680 In fact, the process on the parts of the, the charges, the criminal charges, which the

00:24:38.240 state prosecution itself had said just a few moments before the judge announced her verdict

00:24:43.560 that they actually wanted me to spend a one year in prison over this.

00:24:46.300 Um, the parts of the, the, the criminal charges, Steve, that related to the, the, the supposed

00:24:52.740 fraudulent statements made in the tender, the prosecution itself asked for the judge to

00:24:58.300 absolve me of those.

00:24:59.540 So it was absolutely clear to everyone that the, the left, the political left and the media

00:25:04.500 together had presented a very one-sided account of the facts.

00:25:09.100 And after four years of legal hearings, periodically, every few months, we finally got to the end

00:25:15.720 of it today.

00:25:16.620 And the judge said, there's no case to answer here.

00:25:19.140 No crimes have been committed.

00:25:20.980 Harnwell hasn't done any wrong.

00:25:22.380 I've got the highest form of absolution it's possibly to get in the Italian judicial system.

00:25:28.080 I mean, I'm actually, I have no cloud hanging over me once again.

00:25:31.580 And the message I want to say here to the, not only to the war in Posse, but to great heroes

00:25:37.560 of the MAGA movement who have their own, um, charges hanging over their heads, fight,

00:25:43.720 fight, fight, fight, fight, never give up and trust to some extent that the, that the

00:25:50.080 finally, uh, you will be vindicated and, and judge and justice will come down because it

00:25:54.720 can happen.

00:25:55.300 And the message I'm giving out here to journalists who've been phoning me nonstop over the last

00:25:59.460 couple of hours is that so much of what people are reading in the newspapers today about

00:26:04.420 MAGA, about it's, it's, it's key members, um, having participated fraudulent in one thing

00:26:10.200 or another.

00:26:10.700 There is always another side to this story.

00:26:13.680 And what people are hearing is a very one-sided curated version of the facts, right?

00:26:19.080 Important thing is that when justice in its own time gets to hear all these things, a

00:26:24.200 proper justice process, Steve, that not a, not a, not a partisan judicial hit job, but

00:26:30.420 when the facts are heard in these things, we are exonerated because we are on the right

00:26:34.600 side, Steve.

00:26:35.320 We are on the side of the angels.

00:26:36.960 We're good people.

00:26:37.760 We're decent people.

00:26:38.620 We follow the law.

00:26:40.440 And just ever so occasionally these things come out.

00:26:43.560 So it's a great, it's a great story today, Steve, for all of us.

00:26:48.500 Ben, hang on.

00:26:49.300 I'm going to hold you through the break.

00:26:50.520 Um, uh, because I want to continue this.

00:26:52.780 I'm only have a few minutes after the break.

00:26:54.300 Um, we're going on with the school.

00:26:58.500 In fact, we've been working nonstop behind the scenes.

00:27:00.940 We did a test with the, uh, with the force multiplier.

00:27:03.700 The force multiplier will be one part of it as we teach people to be information age gladiators

00:27:08.880 or information age legionnaires.

00:27:11.600 Um, as we take on the deep state, uh, and the corrupt global elites throughout the world,

00:27:17.560 Italy being one of the worst places, Italy's got such a great populist movement.

00:27:20.860 They're such a great nationalist movement.

00:27:22.160 So many great people, obviously one of the bedrocks of our culture and our civilization,

00:27:26.560 but it's got a totally corrupt deep state that's in business with Davos, in business

00:27:31.960 with Brussels.

00:27:32.500 And they took on Bannon, the war room, uh, our Academy and our representative, our international

00:27:39.160 editor, Ben Harnwell threatened him with prison, threatened him with bankruptcy.

00:27:42.720 It took resources, took time, but here's the thing.

00:27:45.820 If you're unflinching and this is what president Trump, this is the lesson of Trump.

00:27:48.940 Never back down, never apologize, always be on offense.

00:27:53.960 The Academy's coming.

00:27:55.200 It's going to be bigger than ever.

00:27:56.680 And we're going to train a rising generation to be warriors, to take down the deep state

00:28:02.280 in Europe and to assist us here in the good old United States of America.

00:28:06.740 Short break back in the warm in just a moment.

00:28:09.100 I want to warn you of a huge change that could be coming to our money in our bank accounts.

00:28:24.140 First, think back to 9-11, shortly after the government pushed through the Patriot Act.

00:28:28.540 This gave the government power to spy on innocent Americans by monitoring our phone and email

00:28:33.880 and tracking our movement across the internet.

00:28:36.160 Now, Jim Rickards, editor of the independent financial newsletter Strategic Intelligence

00:28:41.460 and New York Times bestselling author, is warning about a coming event that could elevate this

00:28:47.180 governmental surveillance to a terrifying new level.

00:28:50.220 In fact, some of the guests I've had on The War Room believe that the government will soon

00:28:54.360 expand their powers to track our every move.

00:28:57.700 If we say the wrong things on social media, donate to the wrong causes, buy firearms, or even vote

00:29:03.980 MAGA, the government may be able to shut us out of our bank accounts.

00:29:08.620 I can't say for sure if this will happen, but it's an interesting and dire warning.

00:29:14.040 Fortunately, Jim Rickards, an American patriot and friend of mine, has made it his mission

00:29:18.260 to educate us on what he believes is coming and how to protect yourself from the possibility

00:29:24.180 of programmable money.

00:29:26.500 Watch Jim's warning video now, before it's censored like I've been in the past.

00:29:32.260 Go to RickardsWarRoom.com.

00:29:34.280 That's RickardsWarRoom.com now to see the video.

00:30:00.320 others, and why these have been a hedge.

00:30:02.620 Well, Bitcoin hasn't proven itself yet, but 5,000 years plus, I guess we're in the Hebrew

00:30:09.280 year of 5,700, so we'll say 5,000 plus, sure as your gold's been a hedge against times

00:31:08.160 And here's the thing, Navarro and Harnwell and others, you know, Trump, myself, other

00:31:12.820 people, Rudy, we're a little bit built for this fight, right?

00:31:15.900 Built for, you know, they're going to throw you in jail.

00:31:17.500 They're going to do this.

00:31:18.300 It's, hey, come on.

00:31:19.840 There are other people that just live, have been raised differently, live differently,

00:31:23.500 have different spirits.

00:31:24.240 That's fine.

00:31:25.280 They're the biggest heroes.

00:31:27.540 The Harnwells and Navarros, because they come and threaten them with prison. 1.00

00:31:33.040 You think an Italian prison is a nice thing? 1.00

00:31:35.380 No, it's not.

00:31:36.380 And they threaten him with prison.

00:31:38.860 He had every opportunity to compromise.

00:31:41.420 He had every opportunity to fold.

00:31:44.000 He had every opportunity to come to me and say, Steve, I can't do this anymore.

00:31:46.980 Never.

00:31:47.780 It was always, we're going to fight this to the bitter end, because number one, we're

00:31:51.480 on the side of the angels on this.

00:31:52.980 We are righteous in this.

00:31:54.840 This academy is going to get built.

00:31:57.060 It is going to get done.

00:31:58.980 We are a rising movement globally.

00:32:02.640 They know that, and they're going to do everything in their power to try to stop it.

00:32:05.820 And the only thing that's going to defeat this is spirit and willpower, spirit and willpower.

00:32:11.100 And that's what Ben Harnwell has shown the last couple of years.

00:32:13.480 I couldn't be prouder of you, Ben.

00:32:15.620 Where do people go, Ben?

00:32:16.640 I know the media is blowing up your phone, because for the Guardian, these people, they,

00:32:20.100 man, they ripped on us and dumped on us.

00:32:22.160 And we didn't really go back and take a, just like the other cases here.

00:32:25.720 You know, as you don't hear me talk a lot about the cases, it'll all be played out in

00:32:28.900 court and we'll have our day to talk about that.

00:32:31.240 But baby, when we win, we're going to spike the football.

00:32:35.000 Ben Harnwell, where do people go today?

00:32:36.540 And I want to make sure you're putting up all the media on Getter.

00:32:38.840 So where do people go to get you?

00:32:41.040 Steve, thanks very much.

00:32:42.080 It's simply my surname, at Harnwell on Getter, my social platform of choice.

00:32:48.280 I'll just close with this observation.

00:32:49.720 You and I, Steve, we've been planning this Academy for the Judeo-Christian West for more 1.00

00:32:55.200 than 10 years now.

00:32:56.580 I'll tell you one thing, folks, we Bannonites, we do not know the hedgehog position when it

00:33:03.160 comes to a fight.

00:33:04.660 We do not know how to roll up into a little, curl up into a little ball and take the blows.

00:33:11.320 We fight, we fight, we fight.

00:33:12.880 And if they knock us to the ground, we get up and we keep on fighting.

00:33:16.660 And guess what, folks?

00:33:17.560 We win.

00:33:18.480 This is a great result.

00:33:19.660 I carried it up.

00:33:20.260 As you said, we haven't discussed it at all on the show.

00:33:22.460 I've been on this show for three years now.

00:33:23.640 We've never once discussed Trizalte or the Academy, simply because it wasn't part of the

00:33:28.680 job restriction.

00:33:29.300 Now that the victors come along, we're talking about it, we're not going to stop talking

00:33:33.200 about it.

00:33:33.800 And war room, possibly, this is the message.

00:33:36.080 The Academy for the Judeo-Christian West, it'll go ahead and the communists will never

00:33:44.080 close it down.

00:33:45.460 Thank you, Steve.

00:33:46.120 God bless.

00:33:48.600 Hang on.

00:33:49.620 The reason we are having an Academy of the Judeo-Christian West is our civilization is 1.00

00:33:55.820 about resilience.

00:33:57.780 Our civilization is being able to take a punch, fall back, regroup, and then drive forward.

00:34:04.580 This is why in all the great civilizations and man on this planet, the greatest civilization

00:34:11.060 has been Western civilization.

00:34:14.040 Full stop.

00:34:14.800 Sorry if you don't like hearing that, the multicultural crowd. 1.00

00:34:17.080 The greatest civilization mankind has ever known that's been built up is the Judeo-Christian 1.00

00:34:22.580 West of Athens, Jerusalem, and Rome, and now the United States.

00:34:28.900 And this is why we're a providential country.

00:34:31.700 And I don't say, oh my God, this is all Christian nationalism.

00:34:33.900 This is where these guys are going. 0.97

00:34:34.840 You damn right is where we're going. 0.95

00:34:36.200 And we're not going to be defeated. 0.97

00:34:38.720 And we're not going to be stopped.

00:34:40.400 Because that's the tenets of our culture and our civilization.

00:34:44.540 And we don't care the lawfare you put up and the threats you put up. 0.99

00:34:47.840 You people are evil and demonic. 0.99

00:34:49.720 And we know that. 1.00

00:34:50.620 And we're coming.

00:34:51.680 And we're not going to be defeated ever.

00:34:55.160 We may, hey, we're not going to win every fight.

00:34:57.520 We're not going to win every battle.

00:34:59.280 There's going to be some days it looks pretty cloudy.

00:35:01.800 But that's what our civilization tells us.

00:35:04.440 That's why you have to understand the underpinnings of it.

00:35:06.660 This is why you have to understand the history of it.

00:35:09.000 This is why we're doing the academy.

00:35:10.780 If you saw the force multiplier, that was just one small slice of what we're trying to do.

00:35:15.160 The enthusiasm, the power.

00:35:17.560 That's what caused the great Trump backing on Tuesday night. 0.95

00:35:23.120 This is why, you know, what the Lord said, if you're wishy-washy, I'll spit you out of my mouth. 0.97

00:35:26.840 This is the problem with Yunkin. 0.99

00:35:28.020 Grow a set, dude, you weakling, you pencil neck. 0.65

00:35:31.980 Take the vest off and grow a set. 0.91

00:35:34.460 And stand up like a man and get in the breach and fight for your country.

00:35:38.000 Same with Siskimani.

00:35:40.100 Don't give me some mealy-mouth. 0.97

00:35:41.920 I don't want to see some mealy-mouth endorsement.

00:35:44.220 I want to see you in the breach, fighting every day.

00:35:48.580 Ben Harnwell, honored to have you on here, brother.

00:35:51.160 Fantastic.

00:35:52.920 Thank you, Steve.

00:35:53.820 God bless.

00:35:54.180 We're going to have some announcements about the academy that are going to make their head blow up, specifically the Guardian.

00:36:02.220 So get ready, baby.

00:36:03.960 It's only going to come now hot and heavy.

00:36:08.240 Okay, I actually have a very important meeting that we have.

00:36:12.780 The people have scheduled it.

00:36:14.120 They have to do it during the war room.

00:36:16.100 It will be understanding later.

00:36:18.180 We're going to turn over the rest of our coverage to my co-host, our executive editor, Natalie Winters, one of the great examples of what the academy hopes to turn out.

00:36:28.720 I realize you went to Harvard-Westlake in Chicago, but you've been fighting with us for years, and you're one of our greatest examples of how you can be feminine and gracious and graceful and tough as boot leather.

00:36:44.980 So I'm going to turn it over to you in our Palm Beach Real America Voice studio.

00:36:50.960 Natalie Winters, the show's yours.

00:36:53.120 I'll be back this afternoon.

00:36:54.400 We'll have updates on this meeting I'm going to go to.

00:36:56.660 It's going to be quite, I think you'll be quite interested in it.

00:36:59.860 Natalie Winters, the show's yours, baby.

00:37:02.300 I have to say one thing real quick, Steve.

00:37:04.680 When I was applying to college coming from Harvard-Westlake, I had wanted to go to your gladiator school, but I don't think it was up and running yet because they were using lawfare,

00:37:14.620 I think that's something we've gotten quite used to against President Donald J. Trump, but I'm glad it's up and running, and I hope we can create many more people.

00:37:22.180 I know you've been so empowering in my life and creating this wonderful career.

00:37:25.400 It's great to be back in the West Palm Beach RAV studio, but I am happy to be here taking over, trying to fill in for Stephen K. Bannon.

00:37:32.880 We got Dave Bratt, I believe, joining us to give us a little pregame, I think, ahead of this State of the Union.

00:37:39.520 We'll get into more of that.

00:37:40.500 I don't even know if we really have a union.

00:37:42.560 I think we should be doing maybe a State of the Border address that's pretty dismal.

00:37:46.860 But Dave Bratt, can you sort of walk us through where we stand economically?

00:37:51.200 I'm sure we'll get a lot of lies from Joe Biden tonight or whoever is writing his speech, but what are the actual facts?

00:37:58.460 Yeah, I was watching the MSNBC crowd the other day, the mainstream media crowd, talking about the lies coming from conservatives on the economy.

00:38:07.680 And so I do want to add a little factual basis.

00:38:13.000 I think they don't know what they're talking about when they talk about the economy, right?

00:38:16.640 The stock market is up.

00:38:18.500 They say the economy is great.

00:38:20.100 That's because we have a $2.5 trillion deficit right now.

00:38:24.260 We're deficit finance, right?

00:38:26.540 Thank you to the Federal Reserve as well for this.

00:38:29.320 And then if you throw in a Keynesian multiplier of two, which is just kind of standard macroeconomics, you get $5 trillion in government spending.

00:38:39.060 What's that mean?

00:38:40.280 Well, you go out and you go into debt to the kids.

00:38:42.820 You take $2.5 trillion.

00:38:44.180 You shove it into government spending, and then you hire a ton of government workers, and you call that economic growth.

00:38:50.460 That is not the economy.

00:38:52.260 So there's a short corrective for the leftists out there on mainstream media.

00:38:57.300 Do not confuse the stock market performance, which is inflated.

00:39:01.100 And all signs are it's going to have its fall.

00:39:04.480 But the timing is tough there.

00:39:06.740 But the more problematic thing, you know, you and I have both – you've talked about the strains on the young people.

00:39:15.180 And then this week another piece came out about the retirement crisis becoming a reality from insider business.

00:39:23.560 And I'll post all this stuff on Brat Economics.

00:39:26.800 But sometimes, you know, I talk about productivity.

00:39:30.000 It's been down for 50 years in a row.

00:39:32.040 So we shipped all our jobs off to China as Navarro and Bannon show constantly.

00:39:38.940 So then we had service sector jobs left.

00:39:42.220 But then we designed, as you just said, a border invasion of 10 million new folks to compete with the service wages.

00:39:51.140 And so, of course, that drives everybody's wages down.

00:39:53.340 And then you throw in the tech revolution, the Magnificent Seven, and artificial intelligence, and you replace the workers.

00:40:02.580 And so today I just have a few charts I want to share with on where this leaves the seniors, right?

00:40:08.160 The seniors have been left in just awful shape.

00:40:11.760 And as Steve would say, and as you know full well, the American people have had a belly full, right?

00:40:16.820 That's, they're learning.

00:40:18.740 And this is not just to the U.S.

00:40:20.600 This productivity issue and the effect on populists and seniors and young people is global, right?

00:40:27.180 The populist movement is taking over.

00:40:29.880 And that's why the left is having heart palpitations.

00:40:33.420 And so I don't know if we have enough time to go into the charts, Natalie.

00:40:36.760 But if you want to weigh in also on the effect of the economy on the young people.

00:40:40.600 We can go to the charts.

00:40:42.180 We got a few minutes, but I'll hold you through the break, too.

00:40:44.320 Okay, good.

00:40:45.520 Denver, let's go see chart one.

00:40:49.920 And this is pretty scary stuff, right?

00:40:53.980 How much income do our seniors have as they go into retirement, right?

00:40:58.800 So, you know, our seniors grew up in a day where there were pensions.

00:41:02.460 And it was just assumed that with Social Security and your savings and a pension fund, you'd be fine.

00:41:07.880 It turns out they're not fine.

00:41:09.820 Our senior citizens, 65 and older, if you look at those numbers, about 10% of them have about $5,000 in income.

00:41:19.460 23% have about $15,000 to live on per year.

00:41:24.680 17% have about $25,000, right?

00:41:28.260 I'm just picking the midpoints.

00:41:29.380 So if you add all those up, 50% of our American seniors, 65 and older, are living on $30,000 or less, right?

00:41:39.520 And this is due to the managed decline of the United States economy.

00:41:44.480 And so there are no simple solutions left.

00:41:47.180 The one solution is do not leave your job early.

00:41:49.820 As I said, the most important stat I left out is CBO has us growing at 1.5% for the next two decades.

00:41:59.040 So I'd love to have the mainstream media explain to me how that's a good economy.

00:42:03.120 We're leaving in place terrible fundamentals, a terrible underlying economy.

00:42:07.640 Go out to CBO, the Congressional Budget Office.

00:42:10.260 It's not rightwing.com, mainstream media.

00:42:13.280 These are the government's own figures.

00:42:15.040 We're going to grow at 1.5% for the next two decades.

00:42:18.780 Check it out.

00:42:19.340 Second chart is even more problematic.

00:42:23.100 On this chart, if you look at, you know, we just got done saying many people hoping to get, you know, to out of work and to have a retirement.

00:42:33.080 How many of our seniors have retirement accounts?

00:42:36.260 This thing is just stunning.

00:42:38.600 The folks, the bottom gray line on that chart, folks 75 and older, only 45% have a, 40% have retirement accounts.

00:42:49.080 60% don't have any retirement account, right?

00:42:52.720 So nothing's socked away, right?

00:42:54.800 They're totally relying on Social Security.

00:42:56.960 And Social Security, you know, about 10% of our seniors are in poverty.

00:43:02.460 And without Social Security, 40% of our seniors would be in poverty.

00:43:06.580 And this chart is showing you why.

00:43:08.680 And Dave, I got to cut you off.

00:43:10.680 I want to hold you through because I want to keep going through these charts so we can continue to make the case that we should not send billions of dollars to Ukraine.

00:43:18.000 The only place we should be spending this money is on the southern border.

00:43:20.700 We'll get into all of that.

00:43:21.780 We also have Michelle Backus who is live on Capitol Hill.

00:43:24.720 I think we'll be pulling maybe Congressman Ralph Norman, some of his other colleagues, of course, only the good ones, to be going through what we can look forward to.

00:43:32.760 Or I guess maybe, I guess, fear in Joe Biden's State of the Union.

00:43:36.340 We'll be right back.

00:43:37.760 For 10 years, Patriot Mobile has been America's only Christian conservative wireless provider.

00:45:02.780 Action, action, action.

00:45:05.540 Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.

00:45:13.740 Welcome back to The War Room.

00:45:15.340 It's Natalie G. Winters filling in for the one and only Stephen K. Bannon.

00:45:19.160 He has a very important meeting I think you guys will probably be hearing about soon.

00:45:23.580 But as always, there's, of course, a ton of news breaking on Capitol Hill.

00:45:26.540 We got, of course, Joe Biden's State of the Union tonight.

00:45:29.900 Who knows who actually wrote the speech?

00:45:31.200 Who knows if he'll be able to make it through?

00:45:33.140 And while it's easy to bash him and the fact that he has turned this country into really something short of a union,

00:45:38.660 I think we need to focus on congressional Republicans who have allowed, enabled, entitled, and frankly funded to the tune of billions of dollars is a horrible country destroying agenda.

00:45:49.220 But, hey, I think we know the term Republican doesn't mean much.

00:45:53.220 If people like Ken Griffin and all these mega donors that Steve was talking about before identify as belonging to the same party as us,

00:45:59.880 because I don't know about you, I want nothing to do with the Republican Party that Ken Griffin is donating to,

00:46:04.960 that Mitt Romney is a part of, that John McCain was a part of.

00:46:07.960 I like the Trump version of the Republican Party.

00:46:11.040 I think we have Michelle Backus, if I'm correct, with Congressman Ralph Norman, of course, a good fighter, a good friend of the show.

00:46:20.380 I'm just curious.

00:46:21.280 I know you've come on our show a lot to talk about, I believe, in the kind of peak debt ceiling debates.

00:46:26.720 Obviously, going into Joe Biden's State of the Union, you know, where do you think House Republicans have performed?

00:46:35.100 How have they fallen short?

00:46:37.740 And have you guys not essentially given carte blanche to Joe Biden when he stands up there and touts all these policy accomplishments?

00:46:46.100 You know, what has the House majority done to really push back?

00:46:52.660 All right, maybe we will come back to Congressman Norman because I don't see him in the shot.

00:47:01.420 Dave Bratt, I will come to you.

00:47:02.920 Hey, it's not the war room if there's not a technical glitch.

00:47:06.060 I don't get to yell at Denver.

00:47:07.300 I get to yell at Palm Beach, and they're not that far from me.

00:47:10.120 But it's all good.

00:47:11.160 Dave Bratt, if you can hear me.

00:47:13.420 Yep, got you, Natalie.

00:47:13.960 I guess I can ask you that.

00:47:15.120 I can ask you that question, too.

00:47:17.060 But I saw a very interesting poll.

00:47:19.580 You know, I focus a lot on the Chinese Communist Party.

00:47:22.060 But this year, fewer Americans than ever.

00:47:25.340 It was a drop in 13 percentage points.

00:47:27.380 It now stands at about 51 percent of Americans consider China's economic power to be a critical threat.

00:47:35.840 I was just curious, your analysis on this shift, I think it sort of dovetails with what you were talking about.

00:47:40.660 Yeah, no, it's just amazing, right?

00:47:44.460 The ruling class, the globalists, the Ukrainian advocates, et cetera, the crushing of the seniors. 0.97

00:47:53.400 We've sent our jobs to China.

00:47:55.280 And then the great accomplishment.

00:47:56.700 And all political views are always just my own on the show.

00:47:59.560 But the Republicans are touting a win that we're not selling oil from the Strategic Reserve to China.

00:48:08.400 That's a win, right?

00:48:10.120 We're at cyber war.

00:48:11.340 They're pinging us.

00:48:12.360 Ray at the FBI has admitted there's more red lights blinking every day on cyber attacks by China.

00:48:18.540 You all know the warfare book the Chinese colonels put out 30 years ago.

00:48:25.500 They're at war against us.

00:48:27.160 The American people now are catching on, right?

00:48:29.420 They're reading about the full Russia story.

00:48:34.280 The U.S. did a coup d'etat in 2014, so our hands aren't clean and we're not all pro-democracy.

00:48:39.820 We want power over there.

00:48:42.300 And China's behind that. 0.81

00:48:44.220 China's behind Iran. 0.96

00:48:45.440 China's probably in back of the Arab shipping disaster in the Red Sea. 0.96

00:48:52.020 And the American people are catching on because of great media stories that you've been putting out on China for a decade.

00:48:58.100 Well, I'm exaggerating.

00:49:00.140 You're too young.

00:49:00.800 But yeah, a bunch of years.

00:49:02.260 Don't age me that much.

00:49:03.680 Yeah.

00:49:04.680 That wouldn't have been legal.

00:49:06.240 Rab would get fined for child labor. 1.00

00:49:09.100 No.

00:49:09.960 That's right.

00:49:11.460 No, it's just – and one more stat just for the war room.

00:49:14.820 I mean, it's quite staggering.

00:49:16.580 The United States government share is bigger.

00:49:20.960 Our government is bigger both in percentage terms and in real terms than China.

00:49:25.340 China is a communist totalitarian surveillance state.

00:49:28.960 Their government sector is 14 percent of their economy.

00:49:32.100 Ours is 18 percent.

00:49:33.440 And this is why the left is going into histrionics right now, right?

00:49:37.180 They're very worried that another party might actually get to run 18 percent of our economy with all that goes with it.

00:49:46.220 And Mike Benz, right, boy, he laid it out.

00:49:48.920 You and he have been hitting the target on that one.

00:49:52.360 He laid out what's at stake in this election, and it's huge.

00:49:55.420 Dave, Brad, if people want to follow you, stay up to date with all your analysis.

00:50:00.800 Where can they go to do all that?

00:50:02.420 Yep.

00:50:02.680 Thank you very much, Natalie.

00:50:03.900 Yep.

00:50:04.100 Brad Economics on Getter, and there's an email account down there.

00:50:07.680 I'm going to be going to Florida.

00:50:09.120 I'm going to be going down by Vero Beach in a month.

00:50:12.340 We're going to be going to Dallas.

00:50:14.100 I've been to Atlanta.

00:50:15.420 We're going to go up to Michigan, Illinois, Mississippi.

00:50:18.380 So if you want to host a meeting with 100 folks, a couple hundred folks that love God, country, family,

00:50:23.620 and hopefully Liberty University, check me out there.

00:50:27.380 And we're hanging tough.

00:50:30.680 A lot of universities are getting weak-kneed, but we're gladiators over here,

00:50:34.900 and we're proud to be in the Judeo-Christian tradition.

00:50:37.820 Thanks, Natalie.

00:50:39.700 Dave Brat was kind enough to invite me to lecture some Liberty students not too long ago on Chinese Communist Party infiltration,

00:50:46.680 and I'm sure those students are not part of the 51% of Americans who don't view CCP economic hegemony as a threat.

00:50:54.060 Dave, thank you so much for joining us.

00:50:55.860 You bet.

00:50:56.240 Thanks, Natalie.

00:50:57.900 It's a perfect segue, too, for those of you who are also in Florida.

00:51:00.680 I'll be speaking at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach on March 14th.

00:51:05.900 You can go to my Twitter, Natalie G. Winters, to see the link to get a ticket.

00:51:09.420 It's a lunch.

00:51:10.020 It'll be fun.

00:51:10.740 It's nice to be back.

00:51:11.980 In Florida, you can also, in the meantime, of course, talking about cybersecurity and the Chinese Communist Party.

00:51:16.740 I think one of their, I like to say, you know, workers, let's call them what they are, their spies, their invaders,

00:51:25.040 their sleeper cells, was just arrested for stealing, I believe, AI, kind of intellectual property, from an American company.

00:51:31.700 I guess that's what happens when you invite Chinese Communist Party members to invade your country, 0.99

00:51:37.200 whether through the porous southern border or through legal immigration pathways like the EB-5 visa scam.

00:51:42.400 But if you want to protect your home against all of these cybersecurity, these criminals, these crooks,

00:51:47.020 you can go to hometitallock.com slash Bannon.

00:51:51.100 And while you're at it, maybe while you're figuring out how to protect your home against someone being able to take out,

00:51:56.580 I don't really own a home, so I don't really even know the correct terminology,

00:51:59.220 but you can go to warpath.coffee so you can be alert and awake,

00:52:03.060 so you can see if anyone's trying to take out a second, what is it, a second mortgage on your home.

00:52:07.680 I guess I've got to get better at that read.

00:52:08.960 But you can go to hometitallock.com slash Bannon.

00:52:11.680 In my defense, Mike Lindell told me himself, who will be joining us later in the show,

00:52:15.800 that when I'm on, we do sell more pillows.

00:52:17.880 So, hey, I'm just saying.

00:52:19.600 We're going to have Michelle back as continuing to join us. 1.00

00:52:22.080 Hopefully she can actually hear me this time.

00:52:23.420 We've got a bunch of members of Congress.

00:52:24.860 We also have Colonel John Mills, who's going to walk us through not just what's going on in Yemen,

00:52:29.060 with the Houthis in the Red Sea.

00:52:30.900 But some interesting comments coming from Wang Yi, China's basically foreign minister,

00:52:35.380 talking about how, sorry guys, but you're an American.

00:52:39.020 You need to just be okay with a multipolar world order,

00:52:42.580 where the Chinese Communist Party is the top dog.

00:52:45.900 And Americans really assert, I think, their Biden-led role of being second fiddle to the Chinese Communist Party.

00:52:52.980 I guess that's what happens when your son takes millions of dollars from them

00:52:56.880 in exchange for basically unfettered and unchecked political influence.

00:53:01.120 So thanks, Hunter Biden.

00:53:02.220 We'll be right back after the break.
