France and South Korea have also got evacuation plans. | |

War Room. | |
| Pandemic. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Okay, with over 130 million downloads on the podcast, and of course live to millions throughout the world, I want to thank GNews and GTV for putting it in Mandarin and blowing through the firewall. | ||
| The great Kyle Bass just tweets out. | ||
| Here's the reason I want to bring this up. | ||
| This week is jam-packed. | ||
| We've got the Right to Life, a huge rally, March for Life on Friday. | ||
| We're going to be doing something with GTV and others about the Beijing Olympics on Saturday. | ||
| We've got this massive rally about the vaccine mandates and all that on Sunday. | ||
| We've also got the first anniversary of the Biden regime on the 20th. | ||
| We're going to play clips from our show last year about how we're going to kill in the Caribbean. | ||
| We did kill in the Caribbean. | ||
| But in all that, the start of the third year... | ||
| Of War Room Pandemic, because it started as War Room Impeachment, War Room Pandemic, the third year, the start of the third year, which boggles my mind. | ||
| But to put it in perspective, Kyle Bass tweets out, the Party of Davos, you know, the World Economic Forum is not meeting because of CCP virus. | ||
| But it starts up today, and Xi, the Chairman Xi, the murderous dictator and the head of the Beijing Genocide Games, Is, uh, starts off today, start the World Economic Forum. | ||
| He's giving a speech on, like, globalism and how everything's great. | ||
| The genocidal she, and it's followed by, and this is not, I'm not making this up, this followed by a panel on COVID-19, which they created in their bioweapons lab with Tony Fauci, telling the world how it's going to be on this. | ||
| You can't make this up. | ||
| We're going to get more on that. | ||
| The party of Dava sure betters. | ||
| Okay, I want to go back from the sublime to the less sublime. | ||
| The nitty-gritty of politics. | ||
| Glenn Youngkin won, and Glenn Youngkin won because of the overwhelming support of MAGA across the board in the Commonwealth of Virginia. | ||
| Glenn Youngkin, being an establishment Republican, immediately kind of went soft, said we're going to let the mandate stand in these counties and, you know, not so much in CRT. | ||
| John Frederick's radio network lit him up every day. | ||
| We jumped in their war room. | ||
| People put the banner to the back of those guys, and Glenn Youngkin, which I'm no fan of, stood tall at his inaugural, and these executive orders were like, bang, bang, bang. | ||
| I mean, tough, well-written. | ||
| His attorney general came in hot. | ||
| About CRT, about the mask mandates, I think fired two-thirds of the staff of the Attorney General's office. | ||
| Glenn Yannick stood tall, and then, wait for it, he goes on Fox yesterday, and John Roberts comes at him like Joanne Reed, with the same nonsense, literally describing how Joanne Reed and these people cover for themselves, going to say, there's no CRT, it's not taught, how can you say it's taught in the schools? | ||
| It's just a theory at a Harvard Law School, from Derrick Bell, and Derrick Bell's posse. | ||
| And Glenn Youngkin stood in the breach and he backed him down. | ||
| He did not back off at all, I don't think. | ||
| I think he did a very good job. | ||
| But it shows you Fox News, which did not give one second of coverage to Donald J. Trump's massive rally, showed no respect for anybody in the MAGA movement. | ||
| I want you to embrace that. | ||
| It wasn't just Trump they're trying to suppress, it's your voices. | ||
| So first I want to bring in Raynard Jackson, my co-host here for a couple hours. | ||
| Raynard, you mentioned Yunkin. | ||
| Talk to me about those executive orders and why was it a pleasant surprise that the guy came in hot and he came in hard and he came in strong? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes, Steve, because we have evidence. | |
| We have kids taking video of CRT being taught in the classroom, number one. | ||
| Number two, Steve, We as conservatives have got to become better at communication. | ||
| Let's not argue about whether it's a part of the curriculum or not. | ||
| Let's just prevent it from being put in the school period. | ||
| Even if you assume that it doesn't exist, which it does, let's just talk about and prevent our kids from being indoctrinated, number one. | ||
| Number two, Steve, here's something interesting that happened Saturday during the inauguration of Yonker Mayores and Winsome Sears. | ||
| Saturday was King's actual birthday, January 15th. | ||
| It's always celebrated as far as the federal holiday on the third Monday of the month of January, which is today. | ||
| So we pay honor to King's legacy. | ||
| But here's the interesting thing no one is talking about from the inauguration, Steve. | ||
| Do you realize that each of our guys, governor, lieutenant governor, and attorney general, were each sworn in by a black judge? | ||
| Think about that. | ||
| The cradle of the Confederacy, the white, supposedly racist Republicans, all had black judges swear them in. | ||
| And it's not mandated by statute, Steve. | ||
| Each officeholder requested a black judge swear them. | ||
| And Youngkin got sworn in by the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Virginia, Steve, who's a black guy. | ||
| Now, where the heck is the racism at in all that? | ||
| No one's even talking about that. | ||
| Just think, Steve, Junkin as governor, Winsome Sears as lieutenant governor, Jason Mayares as attorney general. | ||
| A white male, a black female, and a Hispanic attorney general. | ||
| That's the conservative movement, Steve, that we have got to take throughout this country. | ||
| And if you think these polls that Epstein was talking about earlier today, Guess what? | ||
| When we start going into the Black and Hispanic community, we're going to turn those polls upside down in our favor, Steve. | ||
| That's the next step after we finish this show today. | ||
| Action, action, action. | ||
| I 100% agree. | ||
| That's why I say we're two-thirds of the country. | ||
| That's what we can win 100 seats and govern for. | ||
| This could be a shift bigger than even 94 under Newt Gingrich, bigger than 2010 under the Tea Party. | ||
| This could be 1932. | ||
| Not just those level numbers, but those levels of political reorientation to the Trump movement, the Trump program. | ||
| I want to bring back in Dr. Carol Swain. | ||
| Dr. Swain, and you wrote a book about this. | ||
| I just want you, the hard work Because now they cover it in social-emotional learning. | ||
| I want you to give a preview of what's the hard work that Elizabeth Schultz and others – not just the Commonwealth of Virginia, but throughout the nation, because I want every – the New York Times has got this huge op-ed in the back, Steve Bannon is onto something. | ||
| And that's really a shout-out to this posse. | ||
| It's about, well, Ezra Klein's smart. | ||
| He says, hey, they're going after the school boards. | ||
| They're going after the committee, the precinct committees. | ||
| They're going after becoming election officials, either voting the county supervisors out or becoming volunteers, election officials, 95% participation. | ||
| This is a very profound, we're gonna make sure all the posse sees it, that this is profound, but it's not about me. | ||
| It's about, it's about, it's about this audience. | ||
| Talk to us about the hard work we have in front of us to wring this poison out of the system. | ||
| Well, Steve, over the weekend, my nonprofit, Be The People Project, hosted an American Dream conference and the co-sponsors were Moms for Liberty. | ||
| Moms for Liberty in Williamson County, Tennessee. | ||
| And what happened was that the newspapers and political left totally went after the group They mischaracterized what took place, but these were moms who organized, who did the research, and exposed how critical race theory is being taught in Williamson County, it's being taught in other parts of Tennessee, even though our state has passed a law banning the teaching of critical race theory. | ||
| And the left, they have talking points, and their talking points are, just as you stated earlier, That Derrick Bale, Richard Delgado, Kimberly Crenshaw, they're not being taught. | ||
| And I mean, that's so ridiculous, because their ideas are being taught through K through 12, in kindergarten. | ||
| And when they shame and bully white people, and when they paint white people as oppressors, because of the color of their skin, and because of slavery and ancestry, that is CRT, when you have the bullying and the shaming taking place. | ||
| So, real quickly, Dr. Swain, how did the mainstream media in Tennessee, what did they say about what you guys were doing? | ||
| What did they say about the sponsorship? | ||
| Well, my nonprofit was the sponsor of the event, and what they did was portray the conference as Moms for Liberty. | ||
| Dr. Ben Carson was the keynote speaker, but they portrayed us pretty much as right-wing But they really went after Moms for Liberty. | ||
| They hate Moms for Liberty because these mothers, middle class, affluent, predominantly white, but not all white by any means, they are threatened by these women because they are affected. | ||
| These are people that are standing up, not just to CRT, but also to critical queer theory, critical feminist theory. | ||
| They are fighting for our children. | ||
| And so for people out there, please support Moms for America, Moms for Liberty, the groups around our country that have organized to fight, not just for their children, but for all of our children. | ||
| And their vision is much closer to the vision of Dr. Martin Luther King, whose birthday we celebrate today. | ||
| If you go back to his letter from a Birmingham jail, go back to the I Have a Dream speech, everything that we would need to get beyond this moment in racial history is contained in those documents. | ||
| And so we need to go back to Dr. King, embrace him. | ||
| Moms for Liberty are much closer to that than the leftists out there who purport to be fighting for social justice. | ||
| But they're really Marxists trying to destroy our nation and its people. | ||
| They have no love for racial and ethnic minorities or for anyone. | ||
| Dr. Swain, how do people get to your site, follow you on social media, and how do they get to your book? | ||
| Because you're one of the most profound public intellectuals we have in this movement. | ||
| Well, my book, Black Guy for America, How Critical Race Theory is Brennan and the House, can be ordered from my website, from Logos, not from my website, but from Logos, Amazon, if you want to go to Amazon, but any major bookstore. | ||
| And my website is BeThePeopleNews.com. | ||
| I have a nonprofit, Be The People Project. | ||
| My handle for social media is at Carol M. Swain. | ||
| Or Doc Dr. Carol M. Swain. | ||
| But Google my name. | ||
| You can find me. | ||
| And I'm out there because I care about you. | ||
| I care about America. | ||
| And I believe that Dr. King's message is the message for today. | ||
| And we should not allow the political left to cancel him or to focus a cherry pick on parts of his statements and not really get the bigger picture. | ||
| He was for all Americans. | ||
| He cared about the Declaration of Independence. | ||
| The Constitution. | ||
| He used Christian values and principles, and that was why he was so effective. | ||
| We need to go back to Dr. King and his message. | ||
| Dr. Swain, thank you so much for joining us today, taking time away from your very busy schedule. | ||
| Thank you, ma'am. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Dr. Carol Swain, I want to go now to Ken Blackwell. | ||
| Ken, Dr. Swain, to translate all that in, to make sure that, because you see the tectonic plate shift happening right now among African American, Hispanic, and Asians to come to the MAGA movement. | ||
| What do we need to do to turbocharge that? | ||
| What do we need, because we have a unique Steve, it's good to be with you on the day that we celebrate Dr. King and what he stood for. | ||
| Look, here's the reality. | ||
| And how do we not let that slip from our grasp? | ||
| Steve, it's good to be with you on a day that we celebrate Dr. | ||
| King and what he stood for. | ||
| Look, here's the reality. | ||
| The left's problem, Joe Biden's problem, is not a problem of rhetoric. | ||
| It's a problem of reality. | ||
| And so we have to keep the focus across ethnicity, across racial lines on Reality and the reality that people are experiencing is oppressive, is debilitating, and they are ready to push back. | ||
| And we must actually say that we paint in bold colors. | ||
| We don't paint in pastels. | ||
| We, in fact, will make a difference in their lives. | ||
| And we will see a movement, as you indicated, to the agenda. | ||
| The agenda of freedom, you know, we across the board are constantly under attack. | ||
| But one of the things that the left really doesn't understand about us is that we don't retreat. | ||
| As the Marines say, we don't retreat. | ||
| We attack from a different direction and we take no intermission. | ||
| And so that's what we have to do. | ||
| We have to understand that elections are won often within the margins. | ||
| And we are now starting to see incremental positive shifts in the voting behavior of Blacks and particularly, excuse me, and particularly Black males. | ||
| Black males have been a target since slavery. | ||
| The attack on masculinity, the attack on the family. | ||
| The family is the incubator of liberty. | ||
| And so the institution of slavery War Room. | ||
|

|
Pandemic. | |
| are attempting to destroy the family and male masculinity. | ||
| The left with their big government socialism are doing the same thing now, not just the blacks, but across the board. | ||
| Ken, hang on one second. | ||
| We'll be back in a minute. | ||

War Room, pandemic with Stephen K. Bannon. | |

| MyPillow.com, promo code War Room. | ||

| Ken Blackwell, I want to go back to this, about this central issue of masculinity and trying to, what, demask, this whole attack on males overall, but particularly on black men. | ||
| Walk us through What that attack is and how does that translate to the practical politics we need to basically destroy, root and branch the Democratic Party in November this year? | ||
| Steve, it really did start at an accelerated pace with the Great Society Program, when in fact they created an incentive system to break up the family and to drive unemployed or low-wage black males out of the family. | ||
| They created a penalty box for intact families. | ||
| In the 1960s, there were as many intact black families as white families. | ||
| The Great Society Program Accelerated the attack on the black male. | ||
| What we're experiencing now, all you have to do is go to TikTok. | ||
| The feminization of America and America's family unit, which is not a family unit because Marxists, big government socialists, they all destroyed the family because they want to create a dependency on the government. | ||
| They want you on the tit of big government so they can control you. | ||
| To move you from being a free citizen to being a subject. | ||
| Now what black males have experienced is that they in fact are grounded in reality and they see that the left is one pushing a feminization of our community and of America. | ||
| And they are, in fact, continuing to zero in on males. | ||
| The Chinese Communist Party, along with big government Marxists in general, whether it's Putin in Russia, they understand that they can feminize the American culture. | ||
| They, in fact, they gain an advantage on the battlefield. | ||
| What we have to do is to understand that black males are ready to speak up. | ||
| All you have to do is to go to Chicago and they're tired of this mess. | ||
| And in fact, we need to to say, look, we have an agenda for freedom. | ||
| We have an agenda for self-sufficiency. | ||
| We have an agenda that respects your human agency and your human dignity. | ||
| And we can begin to move not next, not in Two years, not in four years, but this year, in this election, we can change things in the margin. | ||
| You get black males voting for mega candidates who, in fact, respect human dignity, respect the family, respect work, and respect freedom. | ||
| You, in fact, will win elections for the next 50 or 100 years. | ||
| Ken, how do people get to you on social media? | ||
| How do they get to your website? | ||
| KenBlackwell.com. | ||
| Ken Blackwell, at Ken Blackwell on Getter and Twitter. | ||
| But I'm de-emphasizing Twitter. | ||
| And we're growing like gangbusters on Getter. | ||
| Ken, honored to have you on here, sir. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Always good to be with you. | ||
| Thanks, brother. | ||
| Raynard Jackson. | ||
| Ken Blackwell just laid it down right there. | ||
| That's exactly what we're doing now. | ||
| Before I get to Steve Cortez, Raynard, how do we turn that into an action plan, sir? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, Steve, as you know, you've been very helpful to me. | |
| I run a super PAC called Black Americans for a Better Future. | ||
| Black Americans for a Better Future. | ||
| I want the MAGA crowd that follows you, Steve. | ||
| We need to raise money. | ||
| We need donations because what we want to do, Steve, is take what Ken said, Across the country to the black business community. | ||
| And if we get the black businessmen on our side, Steve. | ||
| The black pastors will follow and the black pastors will bring us to congregation. | ||
| So, Black Americans for a Better Future. | ||
| Steve, I've gotten tons of emails over the holidays. | ||
| I'm working with a couple of state parties. | ||
| Next month, Black History Month, we're going to be going into their states, organizing the black business community at predominantly males. | ||
| And then we're going to be doing events in their various states. | ||
| So, if anyone in your audience, Steve, wants to work with me, Email me, Raynard, at RaynardJackson.com. | ||
| We want to come to your city, your state, and help you bring in the black conservative business community into your party. | ||
| And also, the biggest issue with the black males, Steve, It's entrepreneurship, which is Steve, our buddy's going to talk about, and then the Second Amendment, gun rights. | ||
| Those two issues will move the needle in the black community, Steve. | ||
| And so again, Black American for a Better Future. | ||
| If you want to make a donation, go. | ||
| And if you need us to come to your city or state, invite me and I'll be there. | ||
| I've said for years, and it's hard to fight for in the Trump White House, the solution is access to capital. | ||
| You get access to capital, a lot of problems are going to solve themselves. | ||
| It's access to capital. | ||
| That's across the board. | ||
| But particularly to the black entrepreneurs. | ||
| Raynard, hang on for a second. | ||
| I want to bring in Steve Cortez. | ||
| Cortez, is Ken Blackwell and Raynard Jackson right? | ||
| Is this an attack, a full-on attack, on American manhood and masculinity? | ||
| Is this one of the reasons you're seeing underneath the Gallup poll, you're seeing this massive 14-point shift, ladies and gentlemen, for people who identify as Republican. | ||
| 14-point shift in one year when they've been in control. | ||
| Talk about a no vote. | ||
| The one year they've been in total control of everything, the American people spoke. | ||
| Steve Cortez, what do you think? | ||
| Steve, I think you're exactly correct. | ||
| There's a crisis of masculinity in America and our society and our politics right now, and men are thankfully finally reacting and revolting against it. | ||
| I think it's one of the reasons, by the way, that Donald Trump did so well with Hispanics overall, but particularly with Hispanic men, because I believe culturally, Many Hispanic men were very much drawn to this authentically masculine and unapologetically masculine figure. | ||
| This kind of leader who was unafraid to display some machismo, which is a term that is used in Spanish. | ||
| And to connect this to economics, Steve. | ||
| Regarding what's happening to men in America. | ||
| Workers in America, whether they're men or women, workers have been losing ground in terms of real wages for decades in America, but since the 1970s. | ||
| But the losses are more pronounced for men than they are for women. | ||
| So literally for more than a generation, men have seen their real wages decline with a very important respite when they did very well under President Trump. | ||
| But the trend since the 1970s has been for men to earn dramatically less In real terms, when I was young, Steve, when I grew up in the south side of Chicago in a very working class neighborhood, the norm was for most families to thrive on a single income. | ||
| Now, most of the time that was a dad working doesn't have to be, but we took that as a given in American society that a middle class income could comfortably support a family. | ||
| That is no longer the case today. | ||
| It went away, and Steve, we hardly even talk about it going away, and what it has meant for our society. | ||
| That's why I think it's so important for us to grab this as really, to me, the holy grail of economic populist nationalism in America, is to empower American families, again, to thrive on one income. | ||
| And Steve, this isn't patriarchy. | ||
| I'm not saying women can't work, that they can't make their own economic choices. | ||
| I'm saying, though, let's give families the option, and it may be the man and it may be the woman, but let's give them the option of thriving on a single income and a parent at home raising children. It was the norm in this country. Globalization ruined it. It can become the norm again if we're brave enough and bold enough to put these policies forward. I want to take a second because I want to make sure people understand your background. | ||
| I love having you on because I say you're one of the smartest hedge fund guys that was one of the first Trump supporters from Wall Street. | ||
| Very smart guy about markets, particularly what makes markets thrive. | ||
| But about you personally, I mean, we don't do enough of this on the show, but you know, because President Trump, when you open for President Trump, oftentimes he says you're the waspiest Hispanic he ever met. | ||
| The reason I love your Georgetown, Grayley, but you are, you're a boxer, you're a football player, I mean, you didn't come from privilege, you fought your way up, but you still box, or you still, at least, I think your wife put the kibosh on that, at least in the ring, but you still practice. | ||
| Walk through, I mean, you're a guy, you're a guy that's full-on, high testosterone. | ||
| Well, listen, you know, America needs that kind of leadership. | ||
| We need it at the national level, and of course we need it on the micro level, within families. | ||
| We need men who, again, Are unapologetic about being authentically masculine. | ||
| And that doesn't mean domineering. | ||
| That means leadership. | ||
| It often means being a servant leader. | ||
| You know this within your family, within your company, and within a country. | ||
| And again, I think we've had a crisis in masculinity in this country. | ||
| To the point where it is largely censored to even acknowledge the fact that there are two sexes, much less the differences and the complementarity between the two sexes. | ||
| We have to regain sanity. | ||
| I think we're starting to, by the way, on this score. | ||
| And again, it's why I think candidates who are willing to be brave enough to stand up and say, number one, there are there are two sexes. | ||
| And for example, we're going to defend girls and women's sports because this lunacy that's going on right now in the country It's just an absolute insult to women. | ||
| So that would be an example of how this matters from a policy perspective. | ||
| But I think even more broadly to say that, look, for America to thrive again, we need to have strong families in America. | ||
| We don't have strong families right now. | ||
| One of the reasons, not the only reason, but a driving reason that we don't have strong families is because a single wage earner can no longer support, comfortably support, a family in this country. | ||
| That changed because of policy, Steve. | ||
| It changed because of globalization and offshoring primarily. | ||
| There are other factors, but those are the main ones. | ||
| It was starting to reverse itself for the first three years of the Trump administration. | ||
| America first economic nationalism was working and it was working on steroids. | ||
| The CCP virus that unfortunately brought a halt, a temporary halt to that process. | ||
| And now what Joe Biden's doing, which I know we're going to talk about, what he's doing to the economy is making things worse by magnitudes. | ||
| But the point is, we know what works. | ||
| We have those three years, 2017 through 2019, as data points to point to the success for families of the economic nationalist policies of America first. | ||
| We can get back there. | ||
| A deluge of dismal economic data over the last 10 days provides evidence of the economic misery that Joe Biden inflicts upon America. | ||
| Let's get to the evidence and the numbers. | ||
| First, the terrible jobs report. | ||
| It came in in less than half of expectations for new hiring for the month of December. | ||
| Then last week, we got two terrible inflation reads. | ||
| First, CPI at 7% annually, then PPI, producer prices, at 9.7%. | ||
| That was the worst number in 40 years and the worst number ever as prices soar for everything you need in your life. | ||
| Not surprising given these two numbers. | ||
| We then finished last week with a plunge in confidence. | ||
| University of Michigan survey, which goes back 40 years, two of the last three months, we have seen the lowest consumer confidence levels in the last decade, below the 2020 spring lockdown lows. | ||
| Now, Patriots, it's not enough for us to simply point out the misery that Joe Biden inflicts. | ||
| We also need America-first solutions. | ||
| I provide some in the article that's linked to this video. | ||
| Okay, the great Steve Cortes now joins us. | ||

| Cortes, walk us through that. | ||
| How, in one year, you saw this tectonic plate shift. | ||
| What, a 15 point, 14 point shift. | ||
| And I believe when we get to the crosstabs is going to be working class people that haven't had a pay, a real pay increase in real wages since Trump left. | ||
| What, how deep is the hole that we've dug ourselves with Joe Biden? | ||
| Oh, listen, it's dramatic. | ||
| And I will say this, Steve, for 25 years, I traded capital markets on Wall Street on behalf of some of the biggest hedge funds and sovereign wealth funds in the world. | ||
| So I've seen a lot. | ||
| I've seen a lot of markets, a lot of data. | ||
| I have never seen a decline this fast except for exogenous events, things like the 9-11 terrorist attack or the CCP virus hitting the United States. | ||
| But in just normal economic times, I have never seen in my 25 years this precipitous a decline. | ||
| It's almost unbelievable to me, which is one of the reasons that I wrote this article and made this Chalk Talk, is because when you're in the midst of the calamity, sometimes it's hard to have perspective and see just how bad this is by historical terms. | ||
| But when you put those three aspects... But I want to make sure people understand, because what you said, you're saying the handover from Trump to Biden, that that handover Even given all the problems, the decline since then, because we still did have the CCP virus, but you're saying the collapse of Biden, what Biden's done to this economy post-Trump is the most dramatic you've seen. | ||
|

|
It is, yes. | |
| Again, except for an exogenous event like a terrorist attack on the United States. | ||
| For example, let me give you some evidence of that, so it's not just Steve Cortez's opinion, it's what the American people believe. | ||
| I mentioned that University of Michigan sentiment survey. | ||
| It hit all-time highs under President Trump. | ||
| Actually, it's 15-year highs, not all-time, but 15-year highs. | ||
| Under President Trump. | ||
| That survey was in the 90s to above 100 during almost all of Trump's tenure. | ||
| Until the CCP virus, not surprisingly, that crashed confidence. | ||
| It went all the way down to 72. | ||
| But then what did it do from there? | ||
| From the spring lockdown lows, as America reopened aggressively, especially the freedom jurisdiction places like Florida, it started steadily climbing back, got all the way back to 80 80 was a wonderful trump joe with the trump biden takes office and wh confidence survey Univers back into the soup. | ||
| We broke the lows of the spring of 2020 lockdowns, and we're now all the way down at 69 on that survey. | ||
| So think about that, Steve. | ||
| We are lower in confidence now than the worst points, March and April of 2020, when it literally looked like biological Armageddon for the United States. | ||
| Things are worse now in terms of confidence in this country, and Joe Biden has done that in less than a year. | ||
| Had he done nothing, Stephen, I really mean this. | ||
| I'm not trying to be snarky. | ||
| Had he done what he did during his campaign, which is hide in his basement and eat oatmeal, the economy would be great right now because the handoff was that good from President Trump. | ||
| The recovery was that robust, and it was a robust recovery without inflation. | ||
| Instead, Joe Biden comes in and he pours spending gasoline all over, creating really, there really wasn't a fire, but it's one that he has created and fueled ever since. | ||
| And by the way, I don't want to let Republicans off the hook on this because Minority Mitch McConnell, who deserves to be in the minority because of the way he acts and the kinds of policies he pushes, he bears tremendous culpability for this inflationary explosion. | ||
| Which is crippling the American economy right now, particularly working-class Americans. | ||
| But again, too, I think it's so important, Steve, for us to not only point out how dreary things are, and they are, okay? | ||
| We have to be honest about it. | ||
| We have to assess the damage and the injury before we begin the economic triage. | ||
| But we also then have to give the solutions. | ||
| How do we heal this? | ||
| How do we make it right? | ||
| Again, I think that's critical. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's what I pointed out in my newest article. | |
| Hang on, we'll get to the solution in a second. | ||
| The second part of your equation, you're saying it's inflation plus immigration. | ||
| You're the only guy out there that's tied them together. | ||
| I want to now go down to the border and our own Ben Berquam, Real America's Voice top investigative reporter. | ||
| Ben, you're down there on the border. | ||
| Set the stage for us. | ||
| I'm going to come back to Cortez and ask about how big immigration and the invasion of the southern border has been in this economic debacle. | ||
| What are you seeing down there, sir? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hey Steve, I'm down here in a little-known place, it's kind of overlooked, and the reason I came down here is Ollinaga, Mexico, and Chihuahua, Mexico, just across from Presidio, Texas. | |
| And this is an area of Big Bend National Park that has seen, you know, we focus on McAllen and La Jolla and Roma and San Diego and some of the major sectors, Yuma, where the mass invasion is happening. | ||
| But this area in particular is important because of the dramatic increase. | ||
| We've seen 300 to 400 percent increase in just this sector alone. | ||
| This is an area where the La Lina cartel, which is connected to the Juarez cartel, one of the most brutal cartels, they're actually, they've become a travel agency in Central America charging between $10,000 and $12,000 a person, and they guarantee that they can get them into America. | ||
| And the reason that they do that is because this area is so little controlled by the Border Patrol. | ||
| I mean, 130 miles last night to come down here, and I only saw one Border Patrol agent the entire time coming down here. | ||
| The Border Patrol checkpoint, one of the main ones, was shut down. | ||
| And this area is wide open. | ||
| of thousands of square miles that are wide open where the linear cartel are bringing mostly 18 to 35 year old men and bringing them across you can see the bridge behind me that's the entry point the legal entry point the river next to me is where everyone's crossing there's no wall in this section for hundreds of miles it's knee-deep water and they're simply walking across trekking up the I-10 | ||
| And going into America's corridors, bringing fentanyl and everything else that we're seeing, the invasion and the destruction of America from within, as we are enriching the most evil cartels in the world. | ||
| Ben, hang on right there. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, that is why we're going to win 100 seats, okay? | ||
| It's working class Hispanics have had a belly full of that, okay? | ||
| Because that burden initially, every town's a border town, but it initially hits them. | ||
| Steve Cortez, the second part of your equation, you're seeing it live down there on the border right now. | ||
| You can walk right across because the Biden administration is a junior partner to the cartels. | ||
| Okay, they're in business. | ||
| The Biden administration is in the business of human trafficking, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| Steve Cortez, it's the second part of your equation of why this economy's in tatters. | ||
| What do you mean by immigration? | ||
| No, listen, and Ben Bergquam is doing such important reporting down there that the overwhelming majority of these illegal migrants who are coming across, they are not refugees. | ||
| They're not legitimate asylum seekers. | ||
| They are economic migrants, many of them young men who want to come, understandably, want to come to the United States because they've been invited to come here illegally by Joe Biden. | ||
| And here's how it connects to the economy and the inflation explosion right now. | ||
| Real wages are crashing in this country. | ||
| We now have had 10 straight months of real wages going down, meaning if you're getting a pay increase, it's not enough to keep up with 7% and more rising prices in your life. | ||
| You literally are losing ground every single month. | ||
| The worst possible idea in that scenario, Steve. | ||
| Given that economic quagmire that this country is in right now, the worst possible idea is to import millions of new workers, illegal workers, to then come into the labor market and compete against American citizen laborers to force wages even lower. | ||
| So, there's never a good time for a bull rush on the border, but this is the worst possible time imaginable, and it is only exacerbating what is already An inflationary, stagflationary environment in this country of really misery for working class people. | ||
| This is the last thing that working class people need is a porous border. | ||
| I want to have you back on tomorrow to go through the rest of your article on the solutions, because I want to tee that up in a special way. | ||
| But I want to give the headline today, and you'd appreciate this more than most, Steve Cortez. | ||
| All this carnage going on, this wreck of the economy, of course, the Financial Times of London, top hedge funds produce biggest profits in decades with $65 billion. | ||
| $65 billion in haul. | ||
| The hedge funds made profits of $65 billion. | ||
| And that's because of the monetary policy, the spending policy. | ||
| It's crazy. | ||
| Cortez, give me a minute's summary of your thoughts of when the hedge funds were making $65 billion, sir. | ||
| Steve, the ruling class continues to profit, continues to really dominate politics, economics, policy at the expense of working class. | ||
| And this has happened in the world over. | ||
| But of course, I'm America first. | ||
| I'm concerned with it here. | ||
| Let me give you a stat, which I think is very revealing. | ||
| Joe Biden, the last time he was in the White House when he was vice president for Obama, for those eight years, the top 10 percent of American earners saw their net worth increase during those eight years. | ||
| And that's it. | ||
| The other 90% of Americans, almost all of America, saw their net worth actually decline over a period of eight years. | ||
| That's what so-called progressivism does to working class people. | ||
| He did it once. | ||
| He's now doing it, unfortunately, in an even grander way and in an even more rapid way his second time around in the White House. | ||
| Steve, how do people get to you? | ||
| How do they get to your writings? | ||
| How do they track you down? | ||
| Yeah, please follow me on Getter. | ||

We're heading from here and I do have to give a shout out to Todd Bensman of Center for Immigration Studies. | |
| He's done some incredible reporting down here as well. | ||
| I know he's down in Tapachula right now, but there's a few folks out there doing really great work and he's one of them. | ||
| Right now we're heading our new special. | ||
| We're going to be bringing out Law & Border. | ||
| I'm going to be heading down to La Jolla, Texas en route to La Jolla to meet up with La Jolla PD. | ||
| I'll be stopping in Del Rio and going across into Acuna again and updating from there and showing you again just the devastation, the Biden border disaster that has happened, the invasion that's happened here, and just less than a year from the takeover of the White House. | ||
| A complete, utter devastation on our southern border. | ||
| What is your special show? | ||

| We've got about 30 seconds, Raynard. | ||

|
Yes they do, Steve. | |
| The problem is we as conservatives don't give them a platform. | ||
| So Steve, hopefully we can have some of these actual workers who have been disaffected by this illegal immigration on your show. | ||
| You get it, Steve gets it, and that's a real big opening for conservatives to reach into the black community because we are being devastated by this intrusion of this illegal labor into our workforce, Steve. | ||
| And we as conservatives have got to take advantage of this and bring the black community into this conversation. | ||
| Raynard Jackson, hang on. | ||
| You're going to stick with us through the break. | ||
| We're going to take a short commercial break. | ||

| You know, it's been such a tough year for so many people and, you know, we can get on with our lives. | ||
| Or will we see a new normal? | ||
| A world with harsh, tyrannical rules, governed by a centralized totalitarian state. | ||
| Since COVID-19 was declared a pandemic, many have speculated that it's been planned by a group of tech elites who are dictating to governments globally. | ||
| But do these ideas carry any weight? | ||
| And what might their motives be for orchestrating a global pandemic? | ||
| To understand, we must first explore a significant shift that's been taking place in our economy. | ||
| One that only a minority of people are aware of. | ||
| It's called the Fourth Industrial Revolution. | ||
| Now, the fourth industrial revolution describes the emergence of artificial intelligence and how it integrates more with humans. | ||
| Artificial intelligence, or AI, can already be seen in our daily lives, from how we check out at the supermarket to how we check in for a flight. | ||
| But it's far more advanced than most people realize. | ||
| Okay, the headwaters of the Fourth Industrial Revolution is the World Economic Forum, or what I call the Party of Davos, which I named it back in the movie, I think it was Generation Zero, 12 years ago. | ||
| And they're meeting now. | ||
| They had Chairman Xi kind of kick the thing off, right? | ||
| The totalitarian dictator of the CCP that has brought so much misery onto the Chinese people. | ||
| Of course, he was followed Yeah, that film, it's a documentary. | ||
| I think it's been out for a while, but it's starting to get traction again. | ||
| doing it because of the virus that the CCP unleashed. | ||
| The next person up was Tony Fauci. | ||
| I want to go down to Joe Allen. | ||
| Joe Allen, the new normal in the fourth industrial revolution, sir. | ||
| Yeah, that film, it's a documentary. | ||
| I think it's been out for a while, but it's starting to get traction again. | ||
| It's put out by Happen.network. | ||
| It's actually a very excellent reminder of what the last two years have really consisted Now, the implied thesis Is that, you know, the pandemic was perhaps intentionally unleashed in order to jumpstart the fourth industrial revolution? | ||
| Honestly, I think that the arrow of causation is incorrect there. | ||
| I think it's a bit too conspiratorial. | ||
| I think it's much more likely that the pandemic, once it was unleashed, was immediately seized upon by both tech oligarchs and governments across the world, and of course, the medical establishment which rapidly evolved into a biosecurity state. | ||
| Honestly, it really doesn't matter either way, whether you see it as a plandemic or whether you see it as a pandemic that simply was seized upon for oligarchal benefit. | ||
| It doesn't matter. | ||
| In the end, it still leaves us in the same place, which is under a biosecurity state. | ||
| Now, there are two things that really, the pieces of evidence that they bring out that are really interesting to look at. | ||
| One is Operation Lockstep, which, you know, our friend Alex Jones has been pointing this out for a long, long time. | ||
| Operation Lockstep is part of a 2010 document put out by the Rockefeller Foundation. | ||
| The title of that document, if you want to look it up, is Scenarios for the Future of Technology and International Development. | ||
| But it's really important to look at the Operation Lockstep. | ||
| It's one of four scenarios that they portray as being a kind of catalyst for technological evolution, but it's portrayed as being a negative outcome. | ||
| It's not like they're saying, this is what we should do. | ||
| On the other hand, they say that with a global pandemic, you would see the rollout of mass masking, The rollout of, you know, security checkpoints everywhere in society, and in particular, the rollout of a biometric ID. | ||
| So, you know, it's certainly predictive. | ||
| What I see there, as well as in the Event 201 pandemic simulation that occurred in October of 2019, Rather than seeing it as being, you know, some sort of, like, telegraphing of, you know, New World Order plans, I think what's clear to me is that you have a lot of carpenters getting their hammers ready, and as soon as the pandemic came, all of those carpenters started smashing everything in sight, including us. | ||
| So, I really recommend that the audience check out this video. | ||
| I'll have it—it's up at my social media, and it should be up at warroom.org very shortly. | ||
| It's called New Normal. | ||
| It's put out by Happn.network. | ||
| Very, very interesting, however you interpret it. | ||
| We're going to put it up on getter clicks right through to it. | ||
| Also. | ||
| I'm going to the document you talk about from Rockefeller. | ||
| We're also going to put that up. | ||
| So you're going to have what we want the audience to have right now because this is forget climate change is never going to become a political issues much as they hump it. | ||
| It's just not happening. | ||
| They made the new movie tries scary body. | ||
| It's not going to happen as a political issue this transhumanism. | ||
| And what it means to you as an individual, your family and community, this will be a major political issue. | ||
| And they don't want to talk about it. | ||
| They want all the information dispersed. | ||
| If you go to Drudge, it's 30 stories a day, but they're all spread out over the paper. | ||
| Nobody wants to pull this back together and see what the impact is on you. | ||
| Joe Allen, real quickly, how do people get to you on Getter and how they find you? | ||
| Well, be sure to check out warroom.org under the Transhumanism tab. | ||
