Speaker Time Text

be listening to and is this about more the science and the numbers or is it more the political pressure, the fact that people are sick of wearing masks or is it both a little bit?
Oh, Hallie, there's no question that kind of governor after governor, it's capitulation to a combination of political pressure and fatigue.
I don't blame them.
I mean, it's something that I personally feel.
But I think that you have to have some of the science underlying it.
I know Governor Hopel said, you know, the numbers are coming down.
She's right.
But when we were at a million cases a day, and we're now still at about almost 200,000 cases a day, our cases per day, hospitalizations per day, and even deaths per day, Still exceed some of the peaks of the Delta surge, so everything's relative.
Now, what I do think is responsible, you've seen New Jersey, you've heard it from Illinois.
There are some states where they've said, not today, but a date in the future.
That date seems somewhat arbitrary, but hopefully they've done a little modeling to showcase what's coming down in the next several weeks.
We need to be out of high transmission.
And who do you listen to?
It does become local.
Hallie, if you're in a highly vaccinated area and your test positivity rate is one percent and you're really limiting a lot of your activity to local communities, it is safe to take off these masks.
But if you are, we still have kids under five not vaccinated.
I realize a hundred percent of them are not going to run out and get vaccinated, but we are so close.
February 21st, vaccines are going to ship for under five to doctor's offices, such as mine.
We will be able to offer people protection from six months to the end of their time.
And that's incredible.
And I feel like those are better milestones to work towards instead of today, which is too soon.
And I feel like those are better milestones to work towards instead of today, which is too soon.
It's amazing how science can respond to catastrophic polling numbers.
That's the data they're looking at.
As she said right there, it's a capitulation.
It's capitulation of these left wing autocratic governors and politicians to electoral reality.
People have had enough, have had a belly full.
And the reason is, is that this is now moving into a epidemic phase, something that has to be lived with.
And of course, they're all in a full scramble right now.
Even looking at the numbers of which they, you know, back a year ago, wouldn't, wouldn't listen to reason, wouldn't look at targeted interventions.
But just across the board, even doubled and tripled down on vaccine passports and forced vaccinations.
I want to bring in Boris Epstein.
We've got a lot to go through today.
We've got redistricting.
We've got polling.
We've got all of it.
We've got Mitch McConnell trying to throw down on President Trump.
Boris, your assessment?
You've got Phil Murphy.
He's always got his finger in the wind about which way the wind's blowing, who barely won.
In fact, quite frankly, if we'd had a team up there from the RNC, I'm sure Phil Murphy would not have been declared the winner, what, after a week or so.
I'm sure we'd still be digging through what happened up in New Jersey.
But Phil Murphy's capitulated.
The governor of New York, except against the poor kids in the school, the minority kids in the school, they still gotta be masked.
Of course, businesses can be unmasked.
Connecticut, Delaware, they've all capitulated.
The White House, the CDC, won't back off this, and so the White House is sending Fauci out to say, hey, I don't think it's a federal problem anymore.
Boris Epstein.
boris epshteyn
Absolute disaster, Steve.
Total meltdown for the Biden administration, for the Democrats, for the left, and for mainstream media.
Actually, what caught me in that piece was not the absolute lack of knowledge or lack of science, but when the doctor said that the biggest problem she sees is that kids under five are not vaccinated yet, and how excited she is to offer, or let's be honest, to force on kids under five vaccinations From six months until the end of their time, which I thought was just terrible phrasing.
It literally reminds me of living in 1984, that style of government, that style of approach where language is used.
To fool the people instead of serving the people.
So, absolutely ridiculous.
But as you said, Steve, this all goes from the numbers.
And the polling today from two major center-left polling outlets, Economist YouGov and Morning Consult Politico, is so brutal.
So brutal to Joe Biden and the Democrats.
And interestingly, if you look at polling for people whose number one issue is healthcare, Joe Biden is right around 30%.
What does that tell you?
That on COVID, which Biden ran on, which he was promising the world to the American people, if we could put that up, that was the second, I believe it's the second screenshot I sent over.
On healthcare, on COVID, which was Biden's biggest issue.
Number one issue right there, healthcare.
Okay?
Can we, that's, that's, it's the other one, I'm sorry.
It's the one which says, um, it's, it's, anyway, I'll get a different one.
I'll get the screenshot over there.
If you look at people, For people whose number one issue, again, is healthcare, number one issue is the economy, number one issue is national security, Joe Biden is so far underwater that he's never been above water.
It is absolutely debilitating.
It is absolutely crushing.
This administration, this administration is dead in the crib, and that's why you're seeing Governors, members of the House, candidates, everybody's running away from Joe Biden.
They realize that he, Kamala Harris, they're absolutely terrible.
They're absolutely terrible.
Administration, terrible cabinet, have absolutely no business whatsoever running this country.
And that's why you have this array on the left that we're seeing day in, day out.
And again, what's interesting about these two outlets, Steve, is overall, they actually track, literally, to a T. Right track, wrong track.
Among everybody in this country, this includes independents, includes Democrats, 41%.
41%.
Independents?
25%.
Deadly, deadly to Joe Biden.
He does not have a political pulse left.
unidentified
Now this is, by the way, this is after they've tried to do some, uh, some work to shore this up.
I want to go back to the healthcare just for a second, because it's just not the absolute number of percentages right now.
It's, it's the, it's the accelerating rate of the drop.
Remember when he, when the illegitimate regime came in, Their biggest thing, stock and trade, what they're talking about was not the economy, it was handling of COVID.
I think he was in the mid-60s.
I think it was like 65%, now at 30%.
These drops are of historic proportion, right?
I mean, this is where, yeah, you just don't see these kind of drops.
Go back to the right track, wrong track.
Remember, this is the Economist Poll and Politico.
steve bannon
These are two center-left, at best, center-left, you know, magazines, operations.
unidentified
At best.
At best.
All right, the right track, give me the 25% of the independents again.
That's 25% of, that's 25% right track, correct?
boris epshteyn
That is, that's exactly correct.
If, if you look at, it's, this is, that's YouGov, but we could go there too.
YouGov right there.
The YouGov Economist Poll.
Party ID independent is even worse.
25% is on the morning console.
YouGov independence, all the way to the right, for those of you who are on the podcast or on the radio, 18%.
1-8.
That's a one-handle, folks.
18% believe that this country is generally headed in the right direction under the leadership of Joe Biden.
Absolutely debilitating.
unidentified
Absolutely debilitating.
boris epshteyn
In the morning council poll, you're at 25%.
These are numbers that have barely, I believe, ever been seen in history.
And I'm going to go out there and say it right now.
We've said it a lot.
There has been no administration Well, if you look across American history, and again, let's put that, I think that's the clearest number out there.
Great job, Devin.
Let's put that last graphic up there.
There's never been an administration to when you ask independents, independents, whether the country's headed in the right direction or the wrong direction, and you get 18%.
And this is a poll, Steve, of 1,500 people.
It's not a poll of 300 people.
It's not a poll done by Rasmussen or Trafalgar, which are right all the time, but for some reason, they're being dismissed.
This is a poll that says overall 2660, independents 1867, and Democrats, only 51% of Democrats believe the country is headed in the right direction.
So Joe Biden has lost everybody.
And the drop, the drop from where he was a year ago to where he is now has been such a cliff that it is absolutely unparalleled in the history of this country.
And that's why you have him now running and some Democrats are trying to get rid of the mask mandates or they're trying to get Joe Biden out there to New York or wherever he's going around the country to try to shore up some semblance of his base, but there is no base.
And guess what this goes to?
unidentified
Just 10 more seconds, Steve.
boris epshteyn
Do we really believe that a year in, Right track, wrong track is 26% right track.
And this guy got 81 million votes.
unidentified
Give me a break.
It's ridiculous.
It's impossible.
I want to go back to the independence here.
I want to go back to the independence here.
We said on the afternoon of the 20th of January 2021 on the inauguration day that if we did our job and put forward his illegitimacy, you know, his recklessness, incompetence, all that would take care of the rest.
And once we got independents, because they're the proxy, we're so partisan right now when you blend Democrats and Republicans, no matter even what the weighting of Democrats and Republicans are, it's so weighted, although Democrats are starting to wake up to this, that it gives you kind of a false number.
But look at the independents.
That's a pure proxy on where the American people are.
And these numbers, let's put it in perspective.
The lowest poll we could find, when Richard Nixon walked from the White House to the helicopter, I think it was 24%.
These are at numbers where people have been forced out of the presidency.
These are numbers.
This is why these governors to save themselves in New Jersey, Delaware, Connecticut.
The Democratic Party is now just the rats are leaving the ship.
This is why when Joe Biden goes to Georgia, Stacey Abrams is having her tires rotated.
This is when he goes to Pittsburgh to Pennsylvania.
Fetterman is getting his nails done, right?
This is why people will not stand on the stage and the only people keeping him on life support ...are Mitch McConnell and these collaborationists in the Senate.
Right now, you got Shelby of Alabama is cooking up with Leahy, two of these guys that have worked for 30 and 40 years to destroy this nation.
They're up there cutting a spending bill right now to bail out Biden.
That's going to have, I hear, a quarter of a trillion dollars of additional spending, another $250 billion of additional spending.
Boris, right now, the concept of political capital, does Joe Biden have any?
And should anybody in the Republican Party be working with this guy at all?
boris epshteyn
Absolutely not.
Zero percent chance.
Again, I don't want to go back to the same graph in Denver, because this describes his political capital.
The Hugo Economist for the Economist, which is the Bible, right?
It's the Bible for the Uniparty.
It's the Bible for the elites.
It's the Bible for big-time Wall Street.
And it says so clearly, right there.
Could not be any clearer.
Generally, and this is generally headed in the right track.
Generally right track overall, 26.
Wrong track, 60.
And then again, if you look at those independents, it's 18, 67.
18 right track, 67 wrong track.
There is not an iota, Steve.
There is not an ounce of political capital left in Joe Biden.
He is the biggest albatross.
He's a bigger albatross to Democrats today than Nixon ever was to Republicans.
Joe Biden is derided, he is disrespected, and he is viewed as illegitimate and pathetic.
And that's exactly what he deserves.
Because as we've said so often, Elections of consequences.
Stolen elections of catastrophic consequences.
And the American people are seeing it day in and day out.
And by the way, all the polling lines up.
The different pollsters line up.
The different questions line up.
The questions that are approved and disapproved line up.
All of these fall together and they say one message to Joe Biden.
There's absolutely no room for you left in American politics.
So what do the Democrats do from here?
It is impossible to say.
But you are seeing the absolute effects of it around the country as these governors are cutting and running.
And it's clear to everybody, to the governors, to people of both parties, that the White House has no control.
The CDC is feckless.
That Fauci will literally say whatever comes to his brain.
We are in a state right now in this country where we are rudderless.
Rudderless.
We do not have a functioning executive branch, and it's been that way for a year.
But the light at the end of the tunnel is that as you see in these numbers, the American people are seeing right through it.
And they're saying to their Democrats, we want nothing to do with you.
And now it's incumbent upon Republicans.
And yes, Mitch McConnell, that's you.
Stop being a little P.D.
schoolboy, okay?
Donald J. Trump is the leader of the Republican Party.
Nobody cares about you, Mitch McConnell.
Nobody cares what you have to say.
I want to talk about Kitzinger.
I want to talk about Liz Cheney shouldn't have been censured.
No one cares what you say.
Stop being a traitor to the Republican Party.
Stop being a traitor to the MAGA movement.
Do the right thing and step on the neck of the Biden administration.
It's there.
unidentified
Okay, short commercial break.
We'll be back to go through redistricting and some more polling next in the War Room.
Bring it on and I will fight to the end, just watch and see.
It's all started, everything's begun, and you are over.
Cause we're taking down the CCP.
Isn't it appropriate for the Republican National Committee to censor two sitting members of Congress and also use the word legitimate political discourse in talking about January 6th?
mitch mcconnell
Well, let me give you my view of what happened January the 6th.
And we're all, we're here.
We saw what happened.
It was a violent insurrection for the purpose of trying to prevent the peaceful transfer of power after a legitimately certified election from one administration to the next.
That's what it was.
Okay, let's go ahead and cut that.
We're having a slight glitch in it.
That's Mitch McConnell.
A legitimately certified election.
unidentified
This is all they're talking about in MSNBC and CNN.
mitch mcconnell
Civil War and the Republican Party.
Let me just reframe this for a second.
members.
unidentified
Okay, let's go ahead and cut that.
We're having a slight glitch in it.
That's a legitimately certified election.
This is all they're talking about in MSNBC and CNN, Civil War and the Republican Party.
Let me just reframe this for a second, make sure people understand this, is that Biden's only chance of survival, and tomorrow morning we're going to have Cortez, and we're going to go through a bunch of math on the inflation numbers that are going to come out.
Bye.
They only have two potential ways to save themselves.
Now, they're not going to do it if we stick with the program, but they're just going to declare, like March or in April, that they've beaten the pandemic.
They've beaten the CCP virus.
That it's because of his actions, all the masks come off, everything come off, because they're just going to declare it.
Right.
Although you just heard right there on MSNBC on Haley Jackson, that the numbers are much worse than they were for certain times of Delta.
But they're just going to declare this after having the whole nation kind of locked down in the mask, the vaccine passports, all of it.
They're just going to declare that.
In addition, they're cooking up right now because they can't get any of the bill back better.
What we call the continuing resolution.
They've got, really, the appropriations for fiscal year 22, which is supposed to kick in on 1 October of last year, in the government's year, and we've been kicking the can down the road.
When we had these guys backed up with no increase to the debt ceiling and no budget approved, no appropriations bill approved, we had them cornered.
And Mitch McConnell let them off the hook by increasing the debt ceiling by 3.5 trillion dollars.
Okay?
And don't believe this thing, oh, this is money that's already spent.
If you had kept the debt ceiling right there, they'd be jammed up right now having to come back with a balanced budget.
Now, what they're doing up there right now, and this is Shelby and Leahy, and they're being praised as, this is compromise, this is two old bulls working together, this is their final walking off into the sunset.
Dealmakers.
They're going to increase spending by a quarter of a trillion dollars.
Right?
Another 250 billion dollars on top of The 1 trillion, or if you really do the accounting right, closer to 1.5 trillion dollar annual deficit.
That is basically, they're going to print money to do this, and your children and grandchildren are going to pay for it.
Remember, none of this is free.
Everybody thinks that spending is free, it's not free.
The wealthy are not paying for it, because quite frankly, the wealthy control the Democratic Party, and they're not going to increase taxes on themselves.
So, the wealth, and all the big donors in the Republican Party don't want to increase taxes, so you're not going to increase taxes on the wealthy.
There's not enough bonds you can sell to finance it, so you're just going to have to have deficit spending.
They're talking, what Biden's hoping to do, because inflation numbers I think is going to be so bad tomorrow and outline the jam they're in with the Fed of either raising interest rates that's going to cause a recession or to slow down the economy, is that they have got to keep throwing cash onto the dumpster fire they've got right now.
So the only way They can get off the hook here is that people comply if people compromise.
If you take a hard stand right now, you've got these guys jammed up.
But of course, the biggest problem we have right there, all they talk about is MSNBC and CNN, is the insurrection, is the cult of the Republican Party.
And Mitch McConnell has essentially come out and challenged President Trump.
And President Trump came out today, if we can get that up in Denver, if you can put it up, Liz Harrington put it out, right?
The President Trump wrote something.
This thing is a brutal beatdown.
Boris, walk us through.
This is now an open challenge by Mitch McConnell, who stands for nothing, who represents no one, who does nothing but continue to spend money and bury us the entire time.
He's now challenging President Trump for the direction of this movement.
boris epshteyn
In the moment.
There's absolutely no reason for Mitch McConnell to be speaking for anybody but Mitch McConnell.
He does not represent the MAGA movement.
He does not represent the Republican Party.
And he barely represents the caucus in the Senate.
Now, they're all so old-line.
You've got Thune.
You've got Roy Blunt.
It's the same old people.
And MAGA is so tired of seeing them.
So President Trump today came out and was very specific that Mitch McConnell does not speak for today's Republican Party.
And that is the truth.
Maybe Mitch McConnell speaks for the Republican Party of the 1990s, but hey, newsflash, it ain't the 1990s anymore.
Okay?
And again, why are we spending our time, why are we spending our time on this absolute figment of imagination of the mainstream media and the left?
Of, oh, January 6th was the worst thing that's ever happened, and, oh, there's somehow, you know, everybody needs to be in jail, and we need to continue wasting taxpayer dollars on it.
What we should be doing as Republicans is concentrating on 100 seats, 100 years, taking back the House and the Senate.
What's Mitch McConnell done to take back the Senate?
Nothing.
Just goes around backing weak candidates who are going to inevitably lose in the primaries, and if they don't, they lose in the general.
Mitch McConnell is done in the Republican Party.
He needs to realize it and take Shelby's route right off into the sunset.
Nobody wants to see Mitch McConnell around anymore.
It's over, Mitch.
It's over.
You did some judges, you did okay back in the day, but you are now done.
And President Trump, with that statement that was just up against Denver, let's put it back up, President Trump came out and he was very specific.
Very specific.
MAGA is in control of the Republican Party.
I wanna go now to, uh, yeah, go ahead.
the most powerful man in the Republican Party and in the country overall.
Mitch McConnell stands for nothing, has no base, and has no political capital.
Joe Biden's got no political capital overall.
So they're, you know, two peas in a pod.
It is disgusting.
And for anybody who's MAGA, anybody who's a Republican, pay attention.
Because this is not the leadership we want moving forward.
Mitch McConnell and his cohorts.
Everybody always stands up there with him at these press conferences.
They have got to be gone when we take over the Senate and the House.
unidentified
I want to go, by the way, can Denver put up the RealClearPolitics right before we go to the redistricting?
I've got to put up this chart that shows the spread.
We've been tracking this the entire time.
It's unbelievable.
39%.
It's finally got a three-handle in it.
This shows you what Mitch McConnell supports and backs is failing.
This is the illegitimate Biden regime.
These numbers are catastrophic.
It means Biden has no political capital.
Nobody should be working with him.
We should force those guys to come forward with their budget with no Republican support and saying if they got to shut down their own government, they shut down their own government.
We shouldn't increase spending one penny.
And to increase this, and they say, oh, we're going to increase the defense budget.
Look, I'm the biggest defense hawk out there.
The defense budget does not need to be increased right now.
It needs to be reprioritized, not increased.
So don't sit there and go, oh, you need more defense spending against the Chinese.
Hey, you know what you should do with the Chinese?
Cut off Wall Street.
Cut off the technology for them.
You don't need to fight a conventional war against the Chinese.
You can take them down with unconventional warfare, economic warfare, and information warfare.
One last thing, Boris, on the numbers.
The RealClearPolitics poll.
This is not going to get better.
Remember, they've been pivoting to messaging now for over a month, and the numbers continue to get worse because the American people don't want to be messaged.
They want to see action.
Boris Epstein.
boris epshteyn
No doubt about it.
They see right through it.
The polls are getting worse and worse and worse and worse.
And that three-handle, remember, When the independents went to the 30s, Americans overall were in the 40s.
Independents in the 20s, Americans sliding into the 30s.
Now independents are in the teens, and that is now going to force the country overall, it's going to cause for them to slide.
Into the 30s and 20s.
Low 30s and 20s on Joe Biden.
That two-handle that we've talked about for so long is absolutely what's going to happen, and it's a huge credit right here to the War Room Posse, the MAGA movement, the leadership of President Trump.
That is what we've achieved.
By continuing to focus on 3 November, the illegitimacy of Joe Biden, and for calling out his failures time and time again, and also for calling out the failures of the right-wing Republicans.
And not just saying, oh, well, if you're a Republican, you're somehow okay.
No.
We are not okay with a uniparty.
We're not okay with a party of Davos.
We're not okay with the establishment.
MAGA is in control.
MAGA is in control, and that is the only way we win in November and we win going forward.
unidentified
Go back to when this illegitimate regime took over in January of 2021.
You didn't hear the word bipartisan.
You didn't hear the word compromise.
That's what you're going to hear going forward.
They're going to be talking about, the people they're going to put forward as the heroes are, oh, they work across the aisle.
Bipartisanship.
Look at Shelby and Leahy.
Isn't this historic?
These two old bulls where they go off in the sunset, working together, right, on this budget.
boris epshteyn
What's one thing Shelby's ever accomplished?
unidentified
Zero.
boris epshteyn
Shelby's been around since Jesus wore short pants.
Okay?
Firstly, he was a Democrat there for a while, right?
Then he became a Republican.
And what's he ever accomplished?
Just walks around, pretends to look important, has gotten nothing done.
A terrible senator.
All these old line guys, all they care about is their fancy lunches and their fancy offices.
They don't care about the American people.
They don't care about China absolutely bullying the United States of America.
They don't care about the nexus of China, Russia, Iran, and India that is coming together.
That is what we have facing us.
And what are they doing instead?
Bailing out their old buddy Joe Biden.
Because in the end, Richard Shelby would rather buddy up to Joe Biden and his pals, Leahy and the others, than do anything for the American people.
It's disgusting and it's despicable.
And it's even more disgusting because it's coming from a Republican.
unidentified
Okay, we've got a real fight on redistricting.
We're going to take a short commercial break.
We're going to come back.
We've got to talk about Missouri.
We've got to get down into the trenches right now.
Precinct strategy.
Everybody go there and sign up to become a precinct committeeman.
You've got the school boards.
You've got to hit the school boards.
Had a great session today on the school boards.
Also, the election officials.
People got to man the ramparts and they're doing it.
But we've got a big fight.
For this rediction.
Rhino Republicans are giving away the store.
Short commercial break.
Before we go to Australia, we're going to come back, get into the trenches in Missouri.
next in The War Room.
The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide.
War Room Pandemic.
Here's your host Stephen K. Bannon.
Welcome back.
By the way, the annual sleep sale, everything related to sleep, and if you're going to be at the ramparts, you need a good night's sleep, MyPillow.com, promo code WAROOM, 50% off everything.
Mattresses, the total sleep systems, the pillows, toppers, all of it, except Giza Dream Sheets, 60% off, as low as $39.99.
Make sure you go take advantage of it today.
Also, everything to keep you warm from the down quilts and comforters to the slippers, the moccasins, and the bathrobes, 50% off.
Because Mike Lindell has been scrambling around the country trying to get to the bottom of 3 November.
Got a little tiny inventory problem.
So all overstock items 50% off.
Make sure you go to MyPillow.com today.
Promo code War Room.
Okay, we're going to go to Australia in a moment and talk to one of our favorite senators down there about this burgeoning trucker movement that's now hit Australia from Canada.
Before we go though, Boris, this is what concerns me.
We should be up 12, right?
McCarthy, everybody's walking around saying we're going to be up 12 when redistricting comes off.
Now we're in a dogfight.
We could end up Democrats plus two.
You got patriots in Tennessee standing up.
And there's, quite frankly, a fiasco going on in the great state of Missouri, which is as hardcore Trump country as anywhere.
Walk us through what's going on, what's happening right now, because it's pretty dramatic, and what can the war room posse do about it?
boris epshteyn
Steve, believe it or not, the two percent, the two extra votes, the two extra seats for Democrats right now is actually a base case.
It's a base case.
We went from 12 for Republicans to two for Democrats.
Now, if we don't do better in Missouri, if we don't fight back in the Democrat areas, New York, California, Illinois, Maryland, we may not salvage it.
We may not salvage it.
The perspective that Republicans are somehow going to be OK on redistricting has been wrong.
It's been wrong.
So now what you have going on in Missouri is you have a filibuster that's going on right now.
It is going on right now in the Senate in Missouri on the map, on the redistricting map.
You have 7 to 1, a map that was 7 to 1, which is exactly what it should be.
7 to 1.
You had that map voted down in Missouri.
So, right now, there's a filibuster going on on the remaining maps and where it goes from here.
It is an absolute fiasco.
It's an absolute disaster.
And it is time now, not any other time, the time is now, for the MAGA movement, the War Room Posse, to put our shoulders to the wheel and say to Missouri, to every elected official in Missouri, every single Republican member of the House, member of the Senate, and the Governor, Mike Parson, that it would be unacceptable It would be a fatal flaw to their political careers to vote for any map that is anything above seven Republican and one Democrat.
It is an absolute disaster in Missouri.
It's got to be seven to one.
Stand with the patriots in Missouri now.
Governor Creighton's been great on this as he runs for the Senate.
There have been some members of the House and the Senate that have done the right thing, but there are way too many rhinos over there doing the wrong thing.
So get on the phone, get on your emails, have your voices be heard loud and clear.
If you've got to show up at Jefferson City, do so.
Always call within the lines, but do so.
And have your voices be heard 7 to 1.
It's got to be the map and not one step back.

Let me ask you about the filibuster.
How long is the filibuster going to go?
What is the technicality here and how can our audience, what's the big leverage point?
Where should they come in on this?
boris epshteyn
The leverage point is to Contact all of your elected officials in Missouri and say that as the filibuster goes on, even once the filibuster ends, they are not going to forgive any Republican who votes for any map that is 7-1.
And we'll not forgive those who voted against the 7-to-1 map.
That 7-to-1 map has got to be the map.
And if it's not, it'll be a defeat in the red state of Missouri for everybody who loves America, for everybody who's fighting for the 100 seats, 100 years.
Again, our Delta right now, at best, it's 12, 14 or 15.
Realistically, it could be to 20.
Where we expect it to be up 12, we're going to be down 10.
Meaning we're going to add 10 Biden districts.
Should have been a 0% chance of that happening.
A 2% chance of that happening.
The numbers were so heavily skewed in the favor of MAGA, but as always, as they're doing in the Senate with Rino Mitch, as they're doing all over the country, As they've done with the 3 November movement, including here in Arizona as RINOs are trying to go against the strong resolution from Mark Fincham.
The RINOs in Missouri and across the country have hurt the redistricting push.
Look what Democrats have done in New York, in California, in Illinois, in Maryland.
We've got to have that same strength.
If we don't, we're going to let the Democrats slither out of a historic defeat that's coming their way in 2022, later this year, and in 2024.
unidentified
I mean, this is all Mark Elias.
We had Congressman Madison Cawthorn on this morning.
They're in this weighted electoral board down in North Carolina that has more Democrats than Republicans.
They're trying to get him off the ballot.
They can't win by legitimate means.
This thing on redistricting should make people in Missouri furious.
People in Missouri, we've got the number up on the Chiron.
We're going to put it in all the chat rooms.
We're going to put it up on Getter.
People have got to put their shoulders to the wheel.
Boris, what's your social media so people can get to you?
A lot going on.
The next couple of days are going to be pretty intense.
Boris is putting stuff up 24-7.
boris epshteyn
Intense.
Continues to be fire here in Arizona.
There's a full-on battle now for the soul of Arizona.
So, all eyes have to continue to be in Arizona, calling on all your elected officials to get with Mark Fincham and to have those elected officials sign on to the resolution to reclaim electors.
So, all eyes in Arizona and all eyes on redistricting in Missouri.

I want everybody to understand that 2022 kicks off on Monday.
Early voting in Texas primary starts on Monday.
We're going to be doing a ton of coverage as we lead up to this.
It really kicks off 2022 and 2024.
We're here.
We're in it.
The primary in Texas is March 1st, but the early voting starts on Monday, so we're in it right now.
And this is going to be a dogfight.
We're going to win this back by village by village, congressional district by congressional district.
Let's go now to Australia, Senator Alex Antic.
Senator Antic, I have a question about the convoy.
I'm hearing that the truckers in Australia have had a belly full of these mandates also, and they're rising up like in Canada.
Can you get us up to date on that, sir?
alex antic
Yeah, sure, Steve, and thanks for having me on.
Look, that's right.
I think inspired by the events of the Canadian convoy, Australian Truckers and others, I should say, have been descending on our capital city, Canberra, where I am right now, in their own convoy.
They're calling it the Convoy to Canberra.
They've been protesting in large numbers here in our capital city around our parliament building.
And guess what, Steve?
The mainstream media in this country have been ignoring it, for the better part.
And if they haven't been ignoring it, they've been picking these people out and demonising them as far-right extremists.
I mean, our local newspaper, the Adelaide Advertiser, which is a lamentable publication, in South Australia here has had one story about this, or to the best of my knowledge, it was a small cutout down the bottom right hand side of the 15th page of this newspaper saying how they took a gun off one of the protesters.
These are entirely peaceful people.
They are here to protest restrictions, mandates, masking and all the things that we thought were done within two weeks to flatten the curve.
Australians, and this is real Australia, I have had enough in this country and we're now seeing it on our streets like we did in Canada.
steve bannon
If you could walk us through how we got here because, you know, folks know the Australians, very friendly, great ally of the United States, very outdoors people.
unidentified
People, look at this, it's almost worse than Austria and worse than Germany and even worse than Canada.
How did we get in this situation that Australia kind of led, I mean, what happened to you?
How did it get that Australia, which has always been kind of people that have, you know, self-reliant, get into a situation you've had the worst lockdowns?
alex antic
We've had some some bad ones.
And I think the people of Western Europe have had some pretty bad ones, too.
Look, Australia is a great country and it's full of great people.
But one of the things about Australians, I think, that differentiates them from the United States is this adherence to liberty.
Australians Have almost this easygoing, you know, we have this expression in Australia, she'll be right mate, which is, you know, kind of means everything's going to be okay.
That has served us very well over the course of 100, 150, 200 years.
But in the case of being faced with these sorts of restrictions, it's perhaps allowed the conditions in this country to bulldoze over the top of Australians.
And they have placed a great deal of trust in their governments.
In many instances, governments like the governments of Western Australia have, in my view, abused that trust.
We've now got a situation in Western Australia where the Western Australian government are banning parents from going to see sick children in hospitals if they're unvaccinated.
That's just one of the One of the terribly egregious things that have been done to Australians over here.
But ultimately, it comes back to a laid back attitude.
You know, the United States was born out of the War of Independence.
Australia was settled as a penal colony and has perhaps always been that respect for authority has always been in our DNA.
And I think we're seeing the fruits of that now.
But make no mistake, Australia is a fantastic country.
It still is.
When you look out the window, you see that country.
The problem is that underneath the surface, we've given away far too much of our liberty in the last two years.
And Australians now need to start fighting back to get it back.
And that's what we're seeing here in Canberra, which is absolutely gratifying.
And it's great to see the real Australia on the streets.
unidentified
By the way, I don't think there's any closer ally that we have than Australia and folks in the United States love the Australian, love Australia as a country.
What are, and we love our truckers too, and there's talk of there's going to be a convoy that's going to form on March 4th now that talk about heading towards Washington DC here in the United States.
We'll have more details on that tomorrow.
What specifically?
Well, what they're trying to say is we want an end to vaccine mandates, we want an end to lockdowns, to border closures.
Border closures have been a real issue in this country.
What's their objective? What point are they trying to make?
alex antic
Well, what they're trying to say is we want an end to vaccine mandates.
We want an end to lockdowns, to border closures.
Border closures have been a real issue in this country.
We only have a limited number of states in this country, unlike the United States with its 50 or so.
The borders have been a real issue here.
You really almost can't get into one of our states in Western Australia at the moment.
It's very hard to get in and out of it at all because the premiers of each of those states have such incredible control.
So these people are looking for an end to that.
They want to get back to normal.
Many of them are out of work because they have refused to take these injections and they want their jobs back.
They want to get back on with life.
They want masks gone.
They want mandates gone and they want freedom restored.
unidentified
Given the political calculation, walk us through, how's that going to happen?
Where's the polling?
I know you say people are fed up with it.
We've got about a minute here.
We'd love to hold you through the break.
Where in the political calculus?
Because Australia, like Canada, these things kind of catch like a prairie fire.
Where do you think the truckers will have luck where maybe other people didn't?
alex antic
Well, look, I think it's going to be a very big protest on Saturday.
They're converging over the last week and it looks like there's going to be a record number.
One of the issues we face, though, is that that is actually not getting through to the mainstream media.
They just won't report it.
So outlets like yours are so important in order to get that message across, because there are lots of Australians who watch this.
But the truth is they are here to peacefully protest.
There is more than politics understands that are frustrated at the moment.
This is seen as being a fringe element.
In fact, they're reported as being a fringe element in our mainstream media.
But it's far from it.
Many people, and we know from polling that's been done here, that almost 40% of Australians, in some instances, feel as though they were bullied and coerced into taking these injections in their lives have been intruded on.
So it's hard to know.
The problem with the situation in Australia is that the federal government controls the purse strings in this country, but the states control most of the powers.
So the beef with a lot of cases are with the state governments.
But these people are here at the centre of power in Australia because they want the federal government to intervene in some capacity.
And I agree with them.
unidentified
Senator Alex Antic, if you could please hold on.
We're taking a short commercial break.
We'll return as this revolt spreads to Australia.

OK, Senator Alex Antic from Australia, right here in the United States, you see the capitulation of these Democrats.
The polling on Biden is so bad and you still got Tony Fauci saying, hey, we're still in a pandemic.
It could, you know, by spring be better.
CDC saying keep the mask on everybody.
The federal government's kind of dug in here.
But the rats are leaving the ship.
You got New Jersey has bailed, Phil Murphy, you got even the governor of New York partially bailed.
She's still keeping a mask on the kids and still wants to force vaccinations, but she's giving up on the business part of it a little bit.
They haven't given up on the vaccine passport yet, but that's coming because the numbers are so horrific.
Are you seeing that tectonic plate shift that we're seeing in the rest of the world?
Is that hit Australia yet?
And Will, what the truckers are doing, is that going to lance the boil?
alex antic
Well, we're not seeing that tectonic shift in Australia yet.
We're seeing, I guess, in one sense, a myriad of different positions across the state.
And we've got some states that are doing better than others in terms of the restrictions on liberty.
States like Western Australia and Victoria.
And our territory, the Northern Territory, the capital city, Darwin, are probably the worst examples of the restrictions.
We've got, you know, mandates, lots of areas requiring vaccine passports in businesses.
And in my home state of South Australia, things are better.
But, you know, there's still a lot of work to do.
But we haven't seen much of a shift.
I don't think that movement has hit Australia yet.
I'm seeing the early stages and the rumblings of it.
What we're going to see on Saturday, I think, are huge numbers of people descending here on Canberra.
Now, the problem is, once again, is the press just simply won't cover it.
So it's reliant upon media outlets like yours and others, the independent media, to report on this in order to get that going.
I'm certainly seeing it on social media.
There are a lot of voices that have changed.
There's even a little bit of it creeping into some of our better mainstream outlets, like the Australian newspaper here, which is starting to allow their commentators seemingly To talk about some of the actual science of this, things like being vaccinated doesn't affect your transmission status, which is a topic that was seemingly off limits in the Australian media cycle six months ago, now seems to be openly talked about.
So very, very early, early stages and glimmers.
What we need are more people getting involved in the liberty movement in this country.
Australians need to understand that their liberties are under threat.
And that it is time to be vocal about it in the most lawful and peaceful way we can.
And that is the only thing that's going to shift the dial.
unidentified
Senator, the reason we want to have you on today, we're going to have a lot of coverage on what's happening, not just in Canada, but also Australia as these protests and demonstrations start to go global.
I've just got a question about Western Australia.
People I know love Perth, they love the Navy always stops, the U.S.
Navy stops there all the time.
There was a video the other day that showed a police officer I think it was in Western Australia, in Perth, that actually interrupted a Catholic Mass to check on someone's wearing of a mask.
Is that video accurate?
alex antic
Well, look, I'm led to believe it is, but I can't verify that myself.
But we have seen instances like that.
I know we've seen some in Canada of a similar nature of churches being interrupted there.
That's the first time I've seen that particular instance.
There were rumblings around the country that there would be singing bands, if you can believe that, placed on churches and other outlets as well, which of course, in many church environments, is almost impossible to conduct a service properly.
So, look, there is a lot of concern out there about these incursions into areas of faith.
We've seen a lot of pretty ordinary stuff in the last two years in this country.
Just two, three weeks ago, an old lady who was removed from a cafe because she refused to show her vaccine passport.
That was up in Queensland, which is another state that's been been pretty heavily controlled.
So it's a mixed bag.
There's no doubt that in some states, the police response has been heavy handed.
The most awful examples of those have come out of Melbourne and Victoria, which have looked like a war zone.
And in fact, there's a great documentary called Battle Zone Melbourne that people might be interested in if they want to see that spelled out very Very well.
So, look, it's a mixed bag.
The Liberty Movement's growing here, but, you know, it needs more on board.
unidentified
Well, we hope to drive some traffic.
Can you tell people, what's your social media?
How do people get access to you, Senator?
alex antic
Well, you can find me now on Getter.
I'm pleased to say.
Senator Alex Antic on Getter.

And we've just started a Rumble account as well, as a result of having a run-in with some of the big tech Big tech overlords.
So we're branching out.
But Facebook, Getter, and Rumble.
unidentified
Well, the Liberty Movement's alive and well, and you're one of the leaders of it.
Senator Alex Antic, thank you very much for joining us today from Australia.
alex antic
Thanks, Steve.
Great to be with you.

Okay, we've got economics, geopolitics, polling, all of it, and also all this madness is going around from Colorado to Arizona.
We're in the middle of it.
I want everybody to understand, on Monday early voting starts in Texas for the primary season.
It kicks off the primary season.
The first primary is going to be March 1st in the great state of Texas.
We're into it now.
2022 is upon us.
Texas is in play and we got to make sure we run the tables there, particularly in the Rio Grande Valley and South Texas.
So 2022 starts on Monday morning as early voting starts in Texas.
That means 2024 has started.
So it's not about some distant kind of hazy thing in the future.
It's upon us now.
We've got fights in Pennsylvania, we've got fights in Wisconsin, we've got fights in Georgia, particularly Arizona.
You've got redistricting fights all over right now, specifically Missouri.
We need everybody in this audience to put your shoulder to the wheel.
It's work, work, work.
Make sure you get, and make sure your voice is heard, particularly in the state of Missouri right now.
Okay, tomorrow morning we're going to have an explosive show.
I want everybody back here strapped in, man up.
