Well the virus has now killed more than a hundred people in China and new cases have been confirmed around the world.
You don't want to frighten the American public.
France and South Korea have also got evacuation plans.
But you need to prepare for and assume.
Broadly warning Americans to avoid all non-essential travel to China.
That this is going to be a real serious problem.
France, Australia, Canada, the US, Singapore, Cambodia, Vietnam, the list goes on.
Health officials are investigating more than a hundred possible cases in the US.
Germany, a man has contracted the virus.
The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide.
Japan, where a bus driver contracted the virus.
Coronavirus has killed more than 100 people there and infected more than 4,500.

We have to prepare for the worst, always, because if you don't and the worst happens, War Room.
unidentified
Pandemic.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Banham.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Okay, with 140 million downloads of the podcast, of course, live everywhere, Real America's Voice has got us everywhere with millions of folks.
You've got John Frederick's Radio Network and, of course, G News and GTV to millions now in Mandarin and also Japanese, blown through the firewall.
I want to welcome the diaspora of the Chinese people and also our global audience.
This revolt is global against the Party of Davos, the World Economic Forum, and their minions, the administrative state.
Everywhere you go and they're on the run right now today's kind of I'm very excited because today's the first day of of Early voting in Texas and we said we've talked now for what two years That this is going to be the epicenter of this massive tectonic plate shift that's going to go in the United States We're going to destroy the Democratic Party on 8 November of this year.
You're going to shatter it into a million shards and AOC, with Omar, the leader of one of those shards, the Green Party, or the progressive wing of the Democratic Party, will be the rump of the Democratic Party's left.
That's why she's down in Texas.
She's their rock star.
They ain't sending Joe Biden, and they ain't sending Kamala Harris.
They're sending AOC.
That's going to be the rump.
Of what's left of the Democratic Party.
The other part of it will team up with the establishment of the Republican Party and form like a liberal Democratic Party of like in England.
Okay, but the rising ascendant power in this nation is a populist nationalist movement.
I want to go back now.
We've got a lot to do.
And here's the thing.
that is going to overwhelm them because it is an inclusive nationalism, an expansionist populism of Hispanics, African-Americans, particularly black men, and of course Chinese Americans that are overwhelmingly coming together to, how do I say it, throw the bums out.
Okay?
I want to go back now.
We've got a lot to do.
And here's the thing.
Today's kind of the Hall of Heroes.
You know, sometimes you give the geopolitics and the capital markets.
We got some of that coming in with Steve Cortez, one of the brilliant ones, and Joe Allen.
But sometimes you've got to get down into the trenches.
You've got to get down to the nitty-gritty.
You've got to get down into what's going to change things in a practical basis.
Okay?
And that is where we are today.
I want to bring in Victor Avila, who's dedicated his life to service to his country as an ICE agent.
And now Stone is heading the ring to become an elected official, the land commissioner in Texas.
The reason we have Bianca and Victor and other hardworking Hispanics down in South Texas and Texas to show they're emblematic of a change of attitude, they're emblematic of people who just had a belly full of it, being lied to, being spun, have their vote taken to work against their economic and their cultural and social interest.
And that's what you're seeing going on today.
So they sent AOC down there.
They know they're in trouble.
They sent her.
But you know what?
hangs with the social justice warrior crowd from Austin.
And that's the beating heart of the problem, people know it.
These great universities, supported by taxpayers, you know, the public Ivies in Madison, Wisconsin, in Ann Arbor, Michigan, in Charlottesville, Virginia, in Austin, Texas, these are the beating heart of the problem, because the woke faculty there, which are all cultural Marxists, and remember, they told us they were going to take a long march through the institutions, where they want to get to is education.
Because they could turn it to be propaganda.
Think how many great kids, your sons and daughters, go to these great universities and come out as full-blown cultural Marxists.
Well, that's what's going to be part of the thing we're going to shatter on November 8th.
Victor, are you right and Bianca Gracia right?
Are you right that we're going to get over 50% of the Hispanic vote?
Or is AOC right, sir?
unidentified
AOC is out of control and she's so wrong.
We're gonna sweep them like they've never been swept before and they're gonna get the shock of their lives.
Yes, of course AOC goes to the small little blueberry part of the red pie that we, uh, cherry pie that we own here in Texas.
Let me tell you, I've seen the Hispanics and you mentioned not just the Hispanics, the Asian votes and the black conservative votes.
They have woken up and they're not going to see it coming from Texas.
They're trying, and they're trying so hard because they know that the people have had enough, Steve.
It is enough.
And I want to mention something really good because early voting today, but for me it's also a very special day.
Tomorrow I want everyone to please put the Jaime Zapata family in their prayers.
Tomorrow is 11 years that Agent Zapata and I were ambushed in Mexico, and Zapata lost his life next to me.
I was shot three times.
That was 11 years ago, Steve.
Tomorrow.
And I just want to keep them in remembrance of Agent Zapata, because that's another reason why I'm running for Texas Land Commissioner, is to protect and defend Texas, and in their soul, defending the rest of the nation.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
I want to get all that up so we can put that up tomorrow.
One last question.
I've only got a minute for you.
The first article in Joe Biden's impeachment, which we're going to impeach Joe Biden, OK, starting in January of this of next year, the first article impeachment about his initiation and exacerbation of the invasion of the southern border.
Do you, Victor, having given given yourself to the defense of your country and your fellow citizens, do you think we got enough true facts and material to impeach Joe Biden, sir, about the invasion of the southern border?
unidentified
Overwhelmingly, Steve, it is out of control with not enforcing our immigration law, not enforcing the asylum law, not enforcing Title 42, not enforcing the remaining Mexico policy, and that could go on and on and on, and I'm right there with you on that.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Victor, thank you so much.
I want to make sure we get a mask set for your partner.
It's another incredible American hero that's never given the honor that's due them.
They died in combat just like folks in Afghanistan and Iraq defending our country.
They died down in Mexico on what I would actually say is a more important war than the war in Afghanistan and Iraq.
The war to defend our nation.
Victor, how do people get to you finding out about your campaign to be land commissioner?
unidentified
Please go to VictorAvilaTX.com.
I want to thank everybody for your support.
You're the ones that are keeping me the grassroots in this fight.
I do have a major opponent and I need to get on that runoff with her on March 1st.
Thank you for your votes today and continue those donations that will help me.
I'm very honored and humbled by all your help.
VictorAvilaTX.com.
You can also follow me on Getter, VictorAvilaTX.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Victor, thank you.
I want to bring in another American hero right now, the armor-piercing shell Mike Lindell.
We've got breaking news.
Lindell, here's the reason.
It's like Tina Peters came on.
She's already given her life for her country, in defense of it, her Navy SEAL son.
Right.
Her Navy SEAL son gave his life for the defense of his country.
You saw Victor Avila.
He's got his partner gunned down, you know, defending, defending American citizens, defending our border, defending what we stand for 11 years ago.
Right.
You have been around the country.
I keep telling people the reason we have Lyndell on the show all the time is Lyndell's in meetings.
Lyndell makes me look.
I think I work hard and I put in 18 hours a day, seven days a week on this project.
I'm a piker compared to Lyndell.
This guy's a beast.
He's everywhere.
So, as a reward for all of this, and the great manufacturing company you have up there, and everything you've done, Lindell, as a reward for defending your country, getting to the bottom of the biggest crime in American history, the stealing of the 2020 election, and as we say, elections have consequences, stone elections have catastrophic consequences, and literally, with only the War Room, and Lindell TV, and Real America's Voice, and One America, The poll comes out from The Economist.
The Economist, right?
The other day.
and the CNN says 53 percent of non-educated, non-college educated white women, 53 percent think Joe Biden's illegitimate. 49 percent of working class of non-college educated white males.
Okay, and all the numbers are terrible, but those two, people I understand, the combo platter there, that's the largest voting bloc in this nation, and a big hunk of them, folks, are either Independents or Democrats.
This is what made Trump president in 2016.
This is what's going to change this nation, with working class Hispanics, middle class Hispanics, particularly African American men, the guys like the Royce Whites of the world, and Chinese Americans, Asian Americans.
I had a belly full of this.
Mike Lindell, for all your hard work in defense of your country, tell us what happened today, sir.
mike lindell ▲ ● ▼
Well, I just got served the papers.
They're closing my account at Minnesota Bank and Trust.
That's Heartland Financial, Inc.
Remember, we brought it up a couple weeks ago, and all of you reached out to the bank president and stuff at Minnesota Bank and Trust, and I hadn't heard from them.
Well, the cowards served this paper on Friday afternoon after they closed the business.
They didn't even bother to sign it.
It says, respectfully, Minnesota Bank and Trust.
Then it puts in here, should the account schedule be closed with a negative balance on February 18th, a report will be submitted to check systems.
In other words, Steve, now they're worried that the account, when I pull my money out before they shut the thing down, they're shutting it down on the 18th, and they said they'll mail any balances, but I suppose they're They're worried that it would go negative, that there'd be a negative, but what cowards.
They're just cowards.
Unreal.
This is what it's come to where, um, you know, banks canceled because, and here's their reason, based on a compliance review.
Remember two weeks ago, they said it was because they didn't want to be in the public eye because Mike Lindell's in the public eye.
Well, you know, um, I've had the Lindale Recovery Network, the Lindale Foundation, Lindale Outreach.
I've had these with this bank for years.
And what changed?
We had a Lindale TV and Frank Speech about nine months ago.
Well, as we get right over target, everybody, and that reach goes out there, which we have been, Uh, it's like, how can we stop Mike Lindell from getting the word out?
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
So let's go to his bank... Hold it, hold it, but hang on, but hang on, but hang on, stop, stop, stop, hang on, whoa, whoa, whoa, hang on, hang on, hang on.
This is what ties to the fact they have all the social media oligarchs, they've deplatformed everybody, they have the New York Times, the Washington Post, MSNBC, CNN, relentless, and every story is that the lies of this movement, it's all false, it's lies, everything they just put editorial comment right into when they try to report the facts, lies.
You've got War Room, and Real America Voice, and now Frank Speech on TV.
He got one America.
Because Newsmax won't cover it.
They will not touch it.
Fox goes the other way.
They're pitching the other side.
Let's be brutally frank.
Let's just be honest.
They pitch the other side, okay?
And they're in the Mitch McConnell, George Bush, because they're all Bush guys.
That whole thing's Bush.
The Murdochs are up to their neck in bursts.
They tried to shut their heads.
Megyn Kelly.
What do you think Megyn Kelly said?
Steve Bannon is the biggest misogynist in the world.
He unleashed a Breitbart apparatus on me when I tried to take out Trump in August of 2015 at the first Republican debate when she tried a kneecapping.
And I said, no, I don't care about Fox.
Roger Ailes is a friend of mine.
He called me up.
You got to back off.
We ain't backing off one iota.
In fact, how about this?
We're going to have 100 more articles about her.
Suck on that.
Okay, we're not back.
It's the same crowd.
So Lindell finally gets his thing up and the next thing you know, he's got this massively profitable business.
Banks are trying to, you know, in the good days, Mike Lindell kept his mouth shut.
He'd have every bank in the country trying to get his business, but as soon as Mike Lindell says, hey, I think I'm going to launch some TV thing because Fox won't put me on anymore, next thing you know—and here's the irony of it.
It's called Heartland Bank.
You couldn't pick an organization that has less Heartland values than this financial institution, Mike Lindell.
mike lindell ▲ ● ▼
Yeah, it really is disgusting because it all goes back.
To them trying to cancel our voice, everybody, but we're not going to let it happen.
That's why I say we're better off every single day that goes by is better than the day before because of all of you out there.
Everybody's spreading the word.
We're using every platform as we can, even in spite of them trying to keep it down.
And, you know, hey, isn't that something, Steve?
You go, OK, he built this Frank speech on Lyndale TV.
How are we going to get to him?
I can just see their big brain, you know, their marketing crew.
Let's go after his bank.
Let's go to his bankers.
Well, these bankers that are supposed to be.
I don't know.
They said, you know, I guess when he called my controller, you know, we're Republicans.
Yeah, really?
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Yeah.
mike lindell ▲ ● ▼
What does that mean?
That doesn't mean that you're worse than anybody out there.
Then you're a Brad Rassenberger.
Then you're a coward and a criminal.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
The cowards at this bank, and particularly shareholders, people that buy this stock, got to understand, we're winning or we're winning in November.
We'll see how your bank license goes then.
Because listen, we're not going to play, this is not your dad's Republican Party.
We're not going to play nicey-nicey.
We're going to identify those oligarchs that de-platform people on social media and we're going to go specifically to who tried to de-bank people.
Don't think you get a free shot on goal.
Up in Minnesota, you should understand hockey.
You're not going to get a free shot on goal.
Okay?
We're going to play Smash Mouth.
And all of your Wall Street investors got to understand that.
This is not a free shot on Mike Glendale.
No more free shots.
Be back in a moment, in The War Room.
unidentified
You heard Bill Maher at the top of the chart.
Look, we're winning.
We're ascendant.
and we cannot let this demon hide.
War Room. Pandemic.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
You heard Bill Maher at the top of the chart.
Look, we're winning. We're ascendant.
But it ain't gonna get easier.
The Navy SEALs, the only easy day was yesterday.
Trust me.
Although, it's coming together for us.
It's now going to get to face ripping off time.
Don't think they're just going to sit there.
It's like in 16, when Trump won.
They're not going to sit there and toss you the keys and say, man, what an amazing idea.
The deplorables in MAGA stood up here and said Donald Trump should be president over Hillary Clinton and the greats come behind.
In presidential history, they totally gobsmacked.
They're just not going to toss a key and say, this is amazing.
You guys go do it.
You deconstruct the administrative state.
You blow up the party of Davos.
You secure our border.
You get us out of all these bizarre foreign wars.
You take on the Chinese Communist Party.
You think they're going to do that?
You think they're going to sit there and pat you on the head and say, man, you guys are so right.
You went and did the work, you brought African-American men in, Hispanics, you got the Chinese-Americans, you coupled it with the working class and the middle class in this country all combined, and you had overwhelming victory.
Do you think that's going to happen?
Well, you are mistaken.
Okay?
And all the times I go in the chat rooms and look afterwards, the guys say, oh, you got to do the instruction.
I say, no, no, no, no, no.
This is the way we do it.
We control this country.
We have to start acting like we control this country.
Okay?
It's time to stop the nonsense.
Because you saw, and this is what the divine providence of the Big Steel was, there can be no debate anymore.
This is not like in history you had these Liberal Democrats, you had these Conservative Republicans, the Taft Republicans.
No.
This gap is unbridgeable.
What they see this country becoming and trying to make it and what we have inherited and are bound and determined by our honor and every patriot grave of 12 or 13 generations is to bequeath, not just to our children, but to posterity, right?
greatest country on earth, a constitutional republic that believes in self-reliance and self-discipline and self-governance of rights given to us by God, not by any government.
We have a sacred duty to preserve that.
And that gap is not bridgeable.
It's not bridgeable.
One side is going to win and one side is going to lose.
And don't think, they're just going to sit there and go, great.
And they don't care if you're a bayonet or one of the smartest, wealthiest guys.
Mike Lindell, they're trying to destroy Mike Lindell like they're trying to destroy Donald Trump.
Donald Trump's net worth was $7.5 billion when he ran.
Well, Cortez is going to come in here later.
They don't care if you're wealthy.
They don't care if you're socially prominent.
They don't care.
From high to low, they are going to try to destroy you with every tool and weapon they have.
Okay?
And that's why this is a defining moment.
This is what a fourth turning is about.
It's one side or the other.
One side or the other.
Okay?
And we have the votes.
We have the people.
We have the policies.
We have the message.
It's now time to say, we're going to stop kidding around.
We're going to stop messing around.
We're going to get serious.
Mike Lindell, real quick, you're going to hang with us.
Now that you don't have any money, you've got some time on your hands, you can hang with us.
So Mike, you came on here to do everything else today but this, but you get here and they've pulled your bank lines, or your credit, the way you run.
It's only, by the way, not that we have a drug problem in this country.
What Mike Lindell does in his free time that he doesn't have is support a Christ-centered Drug rehab network to help people that have at the end of their rope either suicide or or or salvation Yeah, let's let's debunk that what a great idea.
Let's do that right Michael and Dale sets up this kind of operation to Get the word out and now they understand that we're flipping the entire nation understand that Joe Biden's illegitimate and did not win on November 3rd and everything they done and have done is the crime of the century and And maybe every century to the beginning of time of this republic.
No, this is why they got to come after Mike Lindell, because he's crazy enough to give support to deplorables.
Mike Lindell.
mike lindell ▲ ● ▼
Yeah, it's, you know, it's disturbing when I come in this morning and I, you know, we have all these things that are very important this week to do.
We're bringing pillows up to trying to get organized, bring pillows up to Ottawa to those truckers.
I'm meeting with three states this week, getting this organized, flying in to get rid of the machines and get our elections, the 2022 election, working on that.
Then I come in and I'm going, I get a letter that Cowards brought late on Friday that they're canceling my bank.
And you gotta realize, Steve, this is the bank where my Lindell Recovery Network is, where anybody that's in addiction, you go to lindellrecoverynetwork.org, it's free.
I put millions of dollars into it.
Been with this bank for years.
The only thing that has changed is nine months ago, I added our voice, frankspeech.com and Lindell TV.
So what do they do?
Whoever they are, Call it the CCP, call it using bad people here that are Republican and the Democrat Party, and Suckerbuck, and Dorsey, and Fox, all of them together.
I put them all in the same category.
Let's go cancel his voice.
How are we going to do that?
We've tried everything.
I know.
Let's go after his bank.
And then the cowards at the bank, either that or they're in on it.
I mean, I believe that they're in on it.
The way they approached this, the way they did this three weeks ago, you leave or else, and you've done nothing wrong, but we just don't want to get any publicity.
That's what they said to me, Steve.
You've done nothing wrong, but we don't want to get any publicity.
What, have I not been in the public eye for over a couple of years now?
I mean, what do you mean to get any publicity?
What, are they going to look up and say, I wonder where Mike Lindell banks?
Let's go over there.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
These guys, listen, this is the way it rolls.
It's like in Germany, the Nazis.
Well, look, I didn't support Hitler, but you know, I didn't want to get, no, this is what happens.
You're gutless cowards.
They're going to put all their names up.
Okay.
And all the emails color inside the line, but we have no problem if you give, if you give them an ear for what you think is an American citizen to debank somebody.
Hey, shareholders of that, that are trading their stock, understand.
That looks like a banking license that ought to be revoked.
It looks like a banking license that ought to be revoked at the state level and the federal level.
We're going to get into all of it.
You're not going to get any free shots on gold anymore.
No more free shots.
Okay?
You try this stuff, we're coming in smash mouth.
Let's go.
By the way, we're winning across the board.
I'm going to get Cortez up in a moment with some polling about the Hispanics.
He's also got some economic news.
Lindell, hang on there.
I've got to bring in Colonel Jim Warshak from down in Florida.
Sir, here's the reason we're winning.
The precinct strategy, the school boards, the election boards.
We got people volunteering.
They're fired up.
They're not going to back off.
And the left is absolutely melting down because they understand this is not your parents' Republican party where you write a check and be a donor and just sit there and show up to vote and maybe get some people to go out to vote and then just take what the Republican establishment gives you.
Those days are over.
Over.
And Jim Warshark is going to tell us why.
Jim, tell us your story down in Tampa.
unidentified
Steve, thanks for being on with you.
Great to see you again.
Yeah, this started back in around 2011-2012 when a number of us who were in the Tea Party joined in with the Hillsborough County Republican Party and we took a look at what was going on.
Hillsborough being a blue county has always been a blue county, but we wanted to make an effort to start to change things and we needed to put together a strategy.
We started looking at the best way to do that is to take charge of the leadership The party had been pretty much establishment, Rhino, Republican, and we made that move.
It took us a number of years and we got folks engaged and we ran for positions.
We had some great opportunity, particularly with the 2016 election.
I joined on with the Trump campaign, was brought on as a speaker.
I had the opportunity to give the speech at a Trump rally in Tampa, Florida in 2016, saying why Donald Trump would be a great national security president.
Then we moved on in 2018, brought Donald Trump in again.
I had the opportunity to emcee the rally where Donald Trump endorsed Rhonda Santos, and it all took off from there.
In 2018, I was asked To be the chair in the party when a vacancy occurred, and we were able to put constitutional conservatives, populist conservatives on the board, first time in the history of the party, and we've been moving out ever since, bringing in new members.
We get a lot of heat.
I think I've been the subject of about 30 articles, and these articles are all being published by the RINOs.
Who are just disgusting and vile.
They go after me.
They go after my board members.
They go after us because we know what's going on.
We're the conservative folks in the county.
But thanks to your efforts, thanks to Dan Schultz and guys like Steve Stern, we've been bringing in a lot of conservative populist members and that's where we want to be.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Look, the reason I wanted to get him on this morning, this is a process.
But this is how Florida became what Florida is today.
Florida is one of the backbones of this movement.
You've got a great governor down there.
You've got Trump down there.
And you've got with Stern and these guys and what the colonel has done.
It took a while and they don't greet you with open arms and they leak stuff on you.
And remember, the enemy is as much the RINO Republicans as the progressive left because they kind of work in conjunction.
They want to go back to the old game.
The old game.
And that game is not going to be there.
This is a process.
It's a process in Texas.
It's a process in Florida.
It's a process in Arizona.
And it's the Mike Lindell's that go around the world and seed this.
And he's a huge supporter of the precinct strategy.
That's why we are.
It's like a franchise.
We're in the franchise business, right?
You gotta seed these.
But these folks in Florida have been grinding at this for years, and that's why it's a citadel for us.
That's why it's a powerhouse for us.
It doesn't happen overnight.
They don't come in and pat you on the head.
Colonel, we've got to bounce.
Give people your social media.
How do they get a hold of you?
How do they get a hold of the folks down at Hillsboro?
unidentified
Hillsboro.gop or chair at Hillsboro.gop or my own warshuckj at AOL.com.
We're glad to help out.
Come join us.
Get in the fight with us.
We've got to keep Florida red.
Move Florida red.
Keep it red and get Ron DeSantis elected in November.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Amen.
And Florida's going to help us take it to the next level.
Particularly the Hispanics down there.
The Cubans and Latinos.
Okay, short break.
Cortez, Lindell.
It's a power segment next in the War Room.
Spread the word all through Hong Kong.
unidentified
We will fight till they're all gone.
We rejoice when there's no more.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Let's take down the CCP!
unidentified
War Room Pandemic with Stephen K. Bannon.
The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide.
War Room Pandemic.
Here's your host Stephen K. Bannon.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Okay, welcome back.
By the way, there was a vote in Parliament.
We had the head of the Populist Party in Canada.
We had Ezra Levant's Rebel News, David Menzies on, talking about Canada.
There's going to be a vote about these mandates, about the direction of it.
But breaking news, Canadian broadcasting update, flash.
Canadian broadcast news has learned that Justin Trudeau will inform provinces he is invoking the Emergencies Act in Canada to give the central government extra powers to deal with protests across the country.
Trudeau said there are no current plans to deploy the military.
I think that's called an escalation.
Throwing down hard.
By the way, Mike Lindell, while we were on commercial break in the last segment, was there escalation by the bank against you, sir?
mike lindell ▲ ● ▼
Yeah, I just got this delivered, Steve.
They just shut down five more of my accounts.
One of them is the MyStore account for entrepreneurs that I've set up over the last couple years.
You know, shame on Minnesota Bank & Trust and Heartland Financial.
This is disgusting.
I hope their stock drops down to zero.
And they're cowards, Steve.
They didn't sign it.
Again, another letter just like the other one.
Didn't even bother to sign it, based on a compliance review.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
I'm going to bring in Steve Cortez.
Steve, we had a lot of economic news to talk about today, but we kind of got overwhelmed by the political.
You're a Wall Street guy.
By the way, you've been silenced before, I think because of something called talking about the vaccines and something called talking about 3 November, but I digress.
What is your thoughts about the de-platforming?
Social media de-platforming was first, but you saw with Trump when his banks cut him off, the financial de-platforming was a big deal, Steve Cortez.
steve cortes ▲ ● ▼
It's a massive deal.
And you know, I think a lot of folks out there may not realize that those of us who are really activists and leaders in the America First movement, we have a hard time right now getting a bank account.
We can't get blue chip law firms to represent us.
And by the way, I'm not saying that to cry.
I'm not saying woe is me.
I am honored.
To be a leader in this movement and honored to have the opportunity to fight for this republic.
But that is the reality of what these tyrants do.
And that's really, you know, what they are.
But in a sense, Steve, I guess, you know, debanking and not allowing that, you know, access to professional services is the least of our problems when we have a country right now where we know because of the Durham report that Hillary Clinton and her minions, her operatives in the DNC with help from the complicit corporate media, we know that they were spying not just on the Trump campaign, but now on Donald Trump as the sitting president of the United States.
So of course those same kinds of people are capable of deplatforming wonderful entrepreneur patriots like Mike Lindell.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
No they have to because they understand the gig's up.
There's no more dad's Republican Party.
We're talking about deregulation and tax cuts.
We're talking about a fundamental change in this country.
I want to go to the polling.
You have been at the tip of the spear since I first met you back in the first Trump campaign in 2016 about saying, hey, the Hispanic community is with us.
They're populist, they're economic nationalists, and they're socially very conservative.
AOC's throwing down hard on you, sir.
She's down there in the University of Texas, in Austin, those things, in San Antonio, saying, hey, Steve Cortez is wrong.
I'm going to flip Texas blue.
Steve Cortez.
steve cortes ▲ ● ▼
So Steve, first of all, since it is Valentine's Day, AOC claims that I just want to date her.
Of course, that's not remotely true.
I do want to beat her in every single election, and we're going to beat her, particularly in the state of Texas.
So let me get to some of the data here because, you know, it's fascinating, Steve.
We keep hearing, and AOC said this too, but we keep hearing from the left, That it's just inevitable that Texas is going to turn blue.
Well, it's not inevitable.
Let's look at the actual data.
If we look at the Trump vote, for example, 2016 versus 2020, he won 52.2% in 2016.
He won 52.1% in 2020.
So the massive wave they were talking about was all of 0.1.
52.2% in 2016. He won 52.1% in 2020. So the massive wave they were talking about was all of .1. But of course, I never want to get complacent.
I want to work hard to earn the support of every Texan.
And the place that we're earning it the fastest and what has to give the Democrats nightmares, quite frankly, is among Hispanic Americans.
So let's put up a chart here from the Economist YouGov poll, their latest polling.
And I think this is really important.
This is job approval of Joe Biden.
And it was miserable overall.
But when I looked within the details of this report, and this was a 500 page plus report where we get into the cross tabs.
Strong approve versus strong disapprove.
And for those who can see it, I've highlighted it here.
Strong approve among Hispanics.
Only 11% of Hispanics strongly approve of Joe Biden's approval.
unidentified
Wow.
steve cortes ▲ ● ▼
To compare that to the overall population, it's 16%.
He's actually doing well better among the general population.
I mean, it's still terrible, 16%, but he's doing quite a bit better than he is among Hispanics.
Only 11%.
Strong disapprove among Hispanics.
29%.
So it is almost a three to one upside down ratio for Joe Biden.
Strong approved versus strong disapproved among Hispanics.
And by the way, to get specific with AOC, let's talk about her in this very same polling data in this very same survey.
Let's talk about her approval rating among Hispanics.
36% positive approval rating of AOC.
Again, this is The Economist YouGov.
This is not some right-wing organization.
36% approval of AOC among her people, among her gente, among Hispanics.
And for comparison purposes, she actually polls pretty well among black Americans.
52% approval among black Americans.
But 16% lower than that Among Hispanics.
So people with names like Cortez, which she and I share, people with names like Cortez and Gomez, do not approve by any stretch of AOC.
So her efforts in Texas, while I will commend her for recognizing the importance of Texas, she recognizes it for the wrong reasons and she draws the wrong conclusions.
unidentified
Texas is going to get more red, Steve.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
More red.
But hold it, she's up there hanging with the social justice warrior crowd at the University of Texas.
It's Ann Arbor, it's Madison, it's Charlottesville, it's Berkeley, it's Austin, it's the Public Ivies are the beating—and it ain't just the Ivy League, it's the Public Ivies.
Hang on for a second, Cortez.
I've got to bring Lindell back.
Mike, a couple of minutes.
Talk about what you were—you were in Wisconsin about the decertified movement.
You had so much to talk about, but let's focus on decertifying.
In Wisconsin, Arizona, what's got to happen, sir?
You've put your heart and soul in this.
Now your banks are ripping your business apart, ripping your Christian philanthropy apart.
What is going on?
Let's really stick it to them today.
What's going on with DeCertify?
mike lindell ▲ ● ▼
Well, Arizona, you know, that was about over a week ago now.
They've got quite a few representatives and senators that signed on.
We're getting more and more every day.
I was in Wisconsin and All they need there, I was over there with the great Tim Rampin, he is the senator that put the bill before to, has it ready to decertify Wisconsin.
It was an amazing event.
I was there five hours, I planned on being there for a half hour, but there was Wisconsin, they're all over Wisconsin going, hey, we have the evidence, let's get this decertified.
I met some other senators and representatives, Steve.
They're this close to getting on board.
They all, I believe we can get them all to jump on together because a lot of them still live in fear.
They're going, you know, fear or they're not.
They were very, very, um, a lot of them, just to be educated on this, that a lot of them said, well, there's nothing that can be done anyway.
Absolutely.
There can be done that.
We've got lawyers, constitutional lawyers.
Look at this.
Three of these States you, you decertify, and then it goes back to all the States.
and it votes one person or one state, one vote, and it's Republican controlled.
So this is very real and it's manifesting, it's coming to fruition, and it's gonna happen, Steve.
I will not quit until we get this done.
And we've got, I'm going to three states this week, and it's gonna get done.
It's gonna get done.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
We have huge news about some of these states.
They're gonna be later in the week tomorrow with Lyndale.
Real quickly, how do people, your bank really came to you, not just this movement, because of Lyndale's speech and your show.
How do people get access to your show?
How do they get access to your TV network?
mike lindell ▲ ● ▼
Yeah, today everybody, just go to LyndaleTV.com.
It's 6 p.m.
Central Time, 7 p.m.
Eastern.
You've got to watch tonight.
It's going to be amazing.
It's on FrankSpeech.com.
And it's every day, Monday through Friday, but tonight will be very big.
We're very informative.
We're going to go right down, give you updates on each state, where we're at with everything.
We might even have a little news on the Supreme Court complaint.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Won't that be awesome?
mike lindell ▲ ● ▼
We're also going to talk about Tina Peters announcing, like she did on your show, Steve.
Tina Peters announcing running for Secretary of State of Colorado.
Big news there.
Tim Rathbun announced he's running for governor of of Wisconsin.
That was great news.
These are people that should be prototypes of what politicians should be.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Mike, I'm going to call you right after to talk about the banking thing.
So Mike Lindell, appreciate it.
I'll talk to you right after the show.
This banking thing is unacceptable and it's not going to stand.
OK.
Better check your banking license.
Thank you, everybody.
Cortez, you had some amazing economic.
I know you did this great thing on Durham.
We're going to get to that later.
But talk to us about, you had some incredible economic news about Goldman Sachs and commodities and people I have to know about because I think you've seen the worst of this economy.
You ain't seen nothing yet.
Steve Cortes.
steve cortes ▲ ● ▼
No, I agree.
Unfortunately, the trend is not your friend when it comes to inflation and to the economy, and things are very likely to get worse, perhaps materially so, before they get better.
Just today, 10-year Treasury yield is back above 2% again because of inflation worries.
Goldman Sachs came out with a report over the weekend that they are worried about commodity hoarding.
Meaning that those who own commodities, those who can gather commodities, are going to do so and hoard them.
Which, by the way, is a reasonably smart strategy right now, given what's going on in inflation.
And speaking of inflation, you don't have to take my word for it, even the Fed is now starting to come around to reality.
The president of the St.
Louis Fed, the regional Federal Reserve Bank, Bullard, he had comments, he was interviewed this morning on CNBC.
And let me give you a couple of his quotes.
He said, quote, we've been surprised to the upside.
Well, War Room folks are not surprised, but at least the Fed's finally coming around to reality.
He says there is a lot of inflation.
That is a quote from Bullard.
He also said our credibility is on the line here.
So now he's right.
He's extremely late to this party, right?
However, he is even coming around to the view of recognizing at least out there in the regional Fed.
I don't think that the Washington DC Federal Reserve Bank is ready to get there yet.
The FOMC on the whole is not there, but the regional Fed banks are starting to recognize the reality that Americans are living with every single day.
Every time they go to the gas pump, When they go to renew their lease, that their costs are absolutely soaring in their life and that their pay, even if it is increasing, it is not increasing enough.
And so in real terms, in terms of real wages, what actually matters to people's prosperity, they're getting poorer every single month, 11 months straight now under Joe Biden.
In all likelihood, though, again, Steve, unfortunately, things are likely to get worse before they get better because the only way, the only method the Fed has now really to fight this pernicious inflation is to raise rates aggressively on an economy that's already decelerating, on an economy that's going to have an extremely hard time Dealing with higher rates.
So there are no good options here.
In many ways, we were boxed in because of what the Fed did and because of the massive mistakes of Joe Biden, who was aided by Republicans.
Let's always remember that, by those Republican collaborators.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
There are a bunch of chalk talks.
We're going to get up on Getter and play on the show tonight and tomorrow morning.
Brilliant chalk talks, these minute talks that Cortez gives.
Real quickly though, we start to see the fissure.
He also said on CMBC, correct me if I'm wrong, talking about a 50 bases point and maybe doing it before the next March.
Goldman laid out seven consecutive 25 bases points, which would put us in a massive recession.
You can tell a little bit of the panic there.
He's sitting there going, maybe we need 50 and maybe we need it sooner.
Steve Cortez.
steve cortes ▲ ● ▼
That's correct.
So he's at least suggested or hinted at he is in favor of sort of monetary shock and awe, meaning 50 basis points.
By the way, for folks who aren't familiar with these terms, 50 basis point means 0.5%, meaning half of a percentage.
So 100 basis points is 1%.
If you go from 1% to 2%, that's 100 basis points.
1 to 1.5 is 50 basis points.
It would be very unusual, particularly with rates this low, to have a 50 basis point move.
It would be highly unusual, and it would be certainly a sign of the incredible concern of the Fed, right?
By the way, I think it would be a good idea for them to do that.
I think Bullard happens to be right.
But again, there's no good options here.
It'll be terrible for the economy.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Cortez, real quickly, your getter.
How do you get your getter on Twitter?
Get 10 seconds.
steve cortes ▲ ● ▼
Getter, I'm at Steve.
Twitter, at Cortez.
unidentified
Steve Cortez with an S. Brother, on fire.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Short commercial break.
We're going to go back to Tennessee when we return.
unidentified
Do you see what's going on outside?
steve cortes ▲ ● ▼
Do you see the impact that this is having on our economy?
unidentified
Thousands of people are losing jobs.
Very sad day for Canada.
Will you vote for it?
Do you see what's going on outside?
Do you see the impact that this is having on our economy?
Thousands of people are losing jobs.
What would you do?
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Okay, in Canada right now, Trudeau is throwing down, going to, I guess, impose the emergency acts there.
I guess like Posse Comitatus here are going to give him the ability to call out the military as they are accusing The trucker, the Freedom Convoys up there, are being economic terrorists.
It couldn't stick that they were white nationalists, white supremacists, because these are decent, hard-working folks.
So they had to pivot.
Now they're economic terrorists.
I want to bring in a young man who's running for, and by the way, I want to thank Cortez.
We're going to get Cortez in Tennessee now.
We're going to get all of Cortez's chalk talks up there.
Very, very powerful and meaningful.
I want to go back to Tennessee.
A young man running for Congress in a Republican primary up there, Robbie Starbuck.
Robbie, I wanted to have you on today and I realize we're jammed.
We want to have you on earlier, but you put out, I think it was a tweet the other day that I thought was incredibly powerful.
It was about, it came off of the video we had and others of these kids taking their mask off in Las Vegas.
You see the joy, you see all that.
And you, I thought, made an incredibly perceptive comment.
You said, when these children understand who did this to them, they will never vote for a Democrat the rest of their lives.
What did you mean by that, sir?
unidentified
Well you know, it sort of was inspired by the fact that my family came from came from and you look at the Cuban population in the States, I'd say we're the most conservative conservative voter bloc country and it's because because we know these communists did do our pleas.
These kids should be in the same boat.
They're gonna go up.
They're gonna realize what was stolen from them.
They're gonna realize that it was these communist Democrats who did it to them.
And they're not gonna let it go.
And they're gonna make sure that their children and their children know exactly exactly who these people are.
And they're gonna make a board.
It's the same we see happening up in Cain right now.
It's the reason why in Trudeau, he may or may not be Fidel Castro's son.
Sure, acting like it.
He is going after the P1.
The reason they're going after it so hard there is because they are exacting something that we need to exact all over the world.
And it's the power of the people.
We are the people who feed the people.
We're the people.
Bring the food to the store for them.
We clean houses.
We make the world run.
The minute we use that power and fully realize the potential of it, it will be in control once again.
That's what the elite are so afraid of.
I think that in Canada, see things get a lot worse.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
I'll tell you what, Robbie, we've got to take you down real quickly and we've got to reboot you because I think it's going out.
That's a little garbled.
And what Robbie's saying is that, hey, Castro Trudeau, right, is running it like Castro ran it in Cuba.
We're going to reboot Robbie because it's too important.
I think it's going out as bad.
I want to play.
Can we play the Joe Allen?
Can we play that?
Hang on a second.
Okay.
Let me give a reset today.
As we've told you, today is the kickoff of it all.
It's early voting in Texas.
And as you know, we give you the geopolitics and the capital markets and talk about the pandemic and get the scientists on here and we get to the mandates, you get to all this fighting and everything like that.
At the end of the day, it comes down to who's got political muscle.
And what they're trying to do is strip and rip off, the face off, anybody that steps up for the MAGA movement.
And they try to destroy him.
Today's the first day of early voting in Texas in the primary.
Primary is March 1st.
So it kicks off 2022 and really 2024.
Let's go back to Robbie Starbuck in Tennessee.
He's running in a primary for to be a member of Congress and to win this November.
Robbie, how do you think this is going to play out in the states as you now are getting involved in elective politics, particularly in places like Tennessee, they have a lot of independent, look it's a fabulous day for MAGA, your assembly stood up for 701, but how do you think it's going to play out in your coming race about these mandates and the overtop, overreach of the federal government?
unidentified
I think it's going to be down to, for people, where were you?
Because, you know, especially in this seat, where it's prime, it's prime, it's going to be a seat for a Republican.
You're going to see a bunch of people from the elite side, the Bushmen, jump in, who have never done anything for the people.
The people, admittedly, are going to go and look at what you did.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Hey, Robbie, Robbie, we got to re- we have to reboot Robbie, because it's clearly, we're having a little technical problem.
Okay, um, let me reset again.
It's a world on fire, and we're winning.
And here's how we know we're winning.
You can look at all the polling data, you can look at the tectonic plate shift, you can look at the enthusiasm, you can look at the fact of what they're running and hiding from, okay?
They will not send Biden out to Texas.
They're not going to do that.
They're going to send Kamala Harris to Texas.
What they're trying to do now is a wag the dog.
If you look on MSNBC and the New York Times and the Washington Post, CNN, it's all two things.
It's 6th January insurrection, right?
And it's Ukraine.
It's wag the markets, wag the dog.
Well, that's not going to work.
Because we understand what they've tried to do to our country.
We understand what they're doing to our country.
And working class and middle class people are not going to tolerate it anymore.
And they're stepping up.
And they're taking this country back.
It's also why, you know, I'll get into this afternoon or tomorrow, the big story in the New York Times of how Bush and McConnell are coming together.
Bush and McConnell are working together to try to hold the Senate.
In holding the Senate they're going to try to galvanize the anti-Trump movement.
What they want is your votes.
They want your money.
They don't want your voice.
They certainly don't want policies that support you and support economic freedom and taking this country to the next level.
And so all of that right now, and you see it playing out all over, whether it's deplatforming the social media or deplatforming someone like Mike Lindell.
I mean, think about it for a second.
You've got a guy like Mike Lindell, what he's done to help this country and banks up in the Midwest.
In Minnesota, in Iowa, that he's banked with for years, without even a call from the CEO, even a call to talk to him, you know, a huge company up there, are taking off his philanthropy, and just across the board, and we're going to get to the bottom of it.
You got a young guy like Robbie Starbuck, and a guy like Robbie Starbuck gets it, and here's why.
He realized, he said the other day, when he saw the mass coming off these kids in these videos, that this is going to have long-term implications.
It's not just the psychological impact that it has had on these kids in doing this.
Remember, the teachers are not backing off.
The one thing you see across the border right now is fighting to keep the mask on the kids in school.
This is going to be a massive political issue.
As we told you back in the spring of 2021, it was going to become a huge political issue.
The reason is they're not going to back off.
And what Robbie Starbuck's saying is that, hey, look, we do have a once in a lifetime opportunity to destroy the Democratic Party this November.
And as importantly, these young people, once he explained to them what happened, will never vote for a Democrat again.
OK, we've had a jam show today.
Even going to be more jam tonight, so you're not going to want to miss it.
We're back here at 5 o'clock tonight.
We're back here again at 10 a.m.
tomorrow morning.
See you back here in the War Room at 5.
Thank you and hopefully have Robbie Storbrook have our technical issues worked out.
Get Robbie back up here.
See you back at 5 o'clock.
Make sure you go to our Gitter account all throughout the day.
Harnwell, War Room, Bannon, Captain Bannon, all of it.
Follow the breaking news, breaking analysis we put up all day long.
See you back here at 5.
