More money, yes, that's great, and it increases the chance of an approval.
Well, the 37th is never really publicized.
I mean, obviously, there's more pressure.
There's more pressure to approve something.
There's almost a million dollars a year going into FDA's budget from the people we regulate.
A long time ago, Congress approved user fees for FDAs.
Basically, we charge the industry millions of dollars in order to hire more drug reviewers and vaccine reviewers, which will speed up the approval process so they make more money.
They tone down the impact of the user fees on their operations because they know they're dependent on the drug companies and The vaccine companies and these other companies for their agency to operate.
The drug companies, the food companies, the vaccine companies.
They pay us hundreds of millions of dollars a year.
To hire and keep the reviewers to approve their products.
There's a money center for Pfizer and their drug companies to promote additional vaccinations.
It'll be a recurring fountain of revenue.
If they can get every person required at an annual vaccine, that is a recurring return of money going into their company.
Well, I mean, obviously, there are some people in the agency which might think more favorably on some drug companies that are in the approval process.
Wait, 5.5 billion for what?
FDA's money.
And all these, like, organizations within FDA, they, like, started to see all this cash in their eyes.
It's like, oh, I need to grab some of that.
And I think we've gone too far on that.
The money gets banked.
It's not spent.
It's a multi-year.
And the money gets banked there and you want to be able to spend it.
Spend it on?
On whatever you can.
Whether it's right or wrong.
So if you speak out about it.
If you see them.
You're not going to get to certain levels in government.
It's better just that the states stay quiet.
You just compared people who may have donated to this to the same people who are funding maybe a terrorist.
I just want to be clear here, sir.
This is really important.
A lot of folks say, look, I just don't like your vaccine mandates and I donated to this.
Now it's illegal.
Should I be worried that the bank can freeze my account?
What's your answer to that?
Well, I think if you are a member of, you know, a pro-Trump movement who's donating hundreds of thousands of dollars and millions of dollars to this kind of thing, then you ought to be.
So that they stand out.
joe scarborough
Let's remember the three C's here, Donny.
COVID.
Crime, cost of living.
Those are the three issues.
Democrats, COVID, crime, cost of living.
Write it down on your blackboard.
Write it down on your hand.
COVID, crime, cost of living.
Those are the three issues, Donnie, that people are going to be talking about.
And when they step into the voting booth, That's what's going to drive the voters who are going to determine whether Republicans control the House and Senate or Democrats control the House and Senate.
unidentified
It is because those are about the voters.
It's about me, not about you.
People are selfish.
I don't mean on the bad sense of the word.
They care about their well-being.
And those three things have to do with their daily well-being.
joe scarborough
Let's just say this.
Let me build on that.
I used to see people go in in voting boots.
And when I was running, it scared the hell out of me.
And so I had to drive away.
I couldn't figure out exactly what they were doing.
But I figured out pretty quickly they were voting for their best interest.
For their kids' best interest.
For their parents' best interest.
For their school's best interest.
It was all self-interest.
Let's just face it.
It's the wealthy.
It's the elites.
It's the people in the ivory towers.
It's those of us around the table.
We can go, well, you know, I'm really concerned, really, just generally about where the Repub- I mean, we have the luxury Of being philosophical when we go in to vote.
The majority of Americans, they're trying to get by.
They want their kids, who are having emotional problems, to be able to go back to school.
They want to be, they're small businesses, they want people to start coming into the stores again.
We elites, Republican elites, Democratic elites, Independent elites, have the luxury of sort of looking at it from 30,000 feet.
Most Americans don't, so you're right.
They vote for their family's best interests, and they should.
unidentified
And what Donald Trump understood was that Americans hate elitism.
They hate it.
The average person... He understood resentment.
That's what... We resent elites!
And that was... it was about race, it was about elitism, and he understood that, and we can't give that back to Republicans.
It's really... we really are...
steve bannon
We are on the precipice of the destruction and total of the Democratic Party.
We're going to play this, I think, every day, because that is a group therapy session on Morning Joe, where they're saying the quiet parts out loud.
They understand they're the wealthy.
They understand the elites they're talking about.
What we've crushed him on since the day of this illegitimate regime a couple things.
It's 17 February the year of our Lord 2022 is Thursday.
You're live in the war room.
This is the one year anniversary of the passing of Rush Limbaugh and we dedicate this show today to the memory.
The living memory of one of the greatest Americans in the last part of the 20th century, in the early part of the 21st century, Rush Limbaugh, who died one year ago today.
We've got a lot to get to.
There's two articles up.
We're going to get a lot of people in here to talk about these later.
Because the early voting started in Texas and what I'm seeing as far as analytics go is I think there's going to be massive turnouts for Hispanic Americans and other people in this new coalition, the Republican Party.
I think people are going to be quite shocked.
And morning, Joe, you're seeing and we'd led the you know, we had the second part that was the FDA investigation by James O'Keefe and Veritas, which is shocking.
You then got the you've got the what's happening in Canada about calling people either debanking you or calling you a financier of domestic terrorism.
These regimes, whether it's the regime of Castro, Trudeau in Canada, or the illegitimate Joe Biden here in the United States, they're not going to go down easy either.
Just don't think they're going to roll over and say, oh this is great, you guys are popular, you guys have the right programs, we're illegitimate, we're just going to toss you the keys.
It's going to be 10 times worse, 10x worse, than when we won in the Comfort Behind against the Clinton Mafia.
We're going to go to Rome in a second, but the two brilliant articles that are up today, Steve Peoples, the top reporter for the Associated Press, has a thing.
It's in quotes from the Associated Press lead story.
Their brand is so toxic.
Their brand is so toxic in quotes.
Democrats look in the face of being actually eradicated from rural America as a party.
I want to repeat this over and over and over again.
Get this to be your battle mantra, right?
Your war cry, your battle cry.
We have a once in a lifetime opportunity to completely destroy the Democratic Party as it exists today.
And the smart guys over there understand that.
Because they overreached, they stole an election, and they tried to immediately put in these radical policies so they can't hide behind anymore.
Can you imagine those guys running on COVID, crime, and cost of living?
The second article is from Politico.
And we're going to have Cortez, I think we've got Phillip Patrick.
The second one is about standby for the Fed and the Biden regime to start to wrestle inflation.
Collateral damage to come.
That collateral damage would be you, the American people, okay?
Your bank accounts, your ability to exist and to live, all of it, all on your shoulders once again.
Okay, we've got a lot going on.
I want to go to Rome.
It's an unbelievable story.
People have been sending us information.
We want to focus on this issue of blood and blood banks, etc., but the great Ben Harnwell has got a breaking story out of Rome that will shock you as a parent.
You think going to school boards and finding school masks, and Young can sign this great bill in Virginia.
If you think that's a big deal, It is, because it leads to stopping what's happening in Rome today.
Let's go to Ben Harnwell in Rome.
Ben, tell us this story.
It's almost unbelievable.
ben harnwell
It is unbelievable, Steve.
Good morning.
This is a story today about tyranny of unaccountable state bureaucrats.
And my observation here is that if you give agents of the state arbitrary power, you can be 100% sure that that power will be used arbitrarily.
Here's the story.
We're going to go to Modena, which is up in the north of the country, the town where Luciano Pavarotti was born, where he lived all his life, where he died.
There's a five-year-old boy there with a congenital heart problem.
His parents had organised with the local hospital in Bologna the urgent operation on the heart.
And they said one thing.
They agreed to everything.
They said one thing.
There will be blood transfusions in this operation.
We ask that the hospital guarantees that those blood transfusions will be from unvaccinated blood donors and in support of this request they had two testimonies from experts.
One a haematologist and the other was a cardiologist and the hospital said no.
So the parents took the hospital to court and here's where the Because we've had stories like this so far, right, where patients have been declined medical treatment, even urgent medical treatment, because they are unvaccinated.
Here is the new element, which I have not seen before, Steve.
The parents took the hospital to court.
The court sided with the hospital, removed the parents as the legal guardians of this child.
The court appointed its own guardian in the parents' place.
to oversee the operation on the grounds that the parents were unfit, legally unfit, to be the custodians of their own child. And that is the story, Steve. It's absolutely astonishing.
steve bannon
Hold it, hang on, hang on here. The kids got a hard problem.
They're going to have this operation.
They prepare for it.
They say, hey, oh, by the way, we want to make sure he's going to take massive blood infusions.
But we got to ensure we want to make sure that he's not getting vaccinated blood.
Right.
And he's got a couple of testimonies to that.
And they give it.
And the guys say, hey, upon further now that you bring it up, the answer is no.
and they actually go to court and a court, administrative court rules, takes the parents off as guardians of the little boy and puts other people in charge so that he gets the operation and he gets the vaccine, the blood with the vaccine in it. Is that what our audience is to understand? Yeah and I would add because a lot of our audience on the worm is in the United States, I just want to make the point here that this is what Americans should be wary of
ben harnwell
when they hear advocates for socialised healthcare.
What that basically means is that you pay the state's medical bureaucrats from your taxes to decide where to allocate and how to allocate scarce medical resources.
You are no longer in charge.
And this is that power play in its most brutal, naked form.
And I would add, Steve, there's a lot of talk at the moment.
We have even discussed this on the war room about the globalist elites.
I'm pushing for this Great Reset, right?
Thinking about this story, that might not be a bad idea, as long as it's us who's doing it.
As long as it's the economic nationalists, the populist nationalists in power, pushing for this Great Reset and implementing it.
Because there does need to be a correction.
When health authorities and the courts conspire to remove perfectly legitimate And I would say entirely legitimate, because if you have a five-year-old child, you don't want that child to have vaccinated blood for the reasons that we're all aware of, with the risk of clotting and what have you.
And there is no need for five-year-olds to be vaccinated, right?
This is the health authorities and the courts conspiring to remove parents as parents over their own children, and the state insisting on its rights to be the parents of last resort.
And it is terrifying.
steve bannon
Not the parents of Lazarus, they want to be the parents of versus.
Ben, what's your getter handle?
I know you're reporting this out all day.
There's more breaking news also, Ben Scott, coming from Europe, Beijing, all of it.
Ben, how do people get to you?
ben harnwell
Well, I broke some news just about five minutes before coming on air, Steve.
Every Sunday, I'm pushing out a request to the Formula One to sack Michael Massey, its race director.
And I've been doing this for the last two months.
And within the hour, Michael Massey has been sacked.
Now I know Americans don't necessarily follow Formula One as much as we do here in occupied Europe.
steve bannon
It's getting big.
ben harnwell
The war room roared and Formula One trembled.
I'm at Harnwell, on Jetta, at Harnwell.
steve bannon
Yeah, Formula One's actually getting bigger.
We'll get to the Massey story maybe later and get you back on.
We've got to take a break.
We're going to go truckers in Canada.
They're trying to shut it down now.
Castro Trudeau is moving.
And then we've got the trucker convoy out in Barstow.
It's getting ready to start rolling east.
All of that.
We're going to go to the border.
Our correspondent with Real America's Voice, the independent contractor, Oscar Ramirez Blue, got attacked yesterday.
And we've got it up on getter right now.
The bad hombres that did it.
Okay, all next.
Coming to you in the War Room.
unidentified
Announcing the following immediate actions.
First, we are broadening the scope of Canada's anti-money laundering and terrorist financing rules so that they cover crowdfunding platforms and the payment service providers they use.
These changes cover all forms of transactions, including digital assets, such as cryptocurrencies.
The illegal blockades have highlighted the fact that crowdfunding platforms and some of the payment service providers they use are not fully captured under the Proceeds of Crime and Terrorist Financing Act.
Our banks and financial institutions are already obligated to report to the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada, or FinTRAC.
As of today, all crowdfunding platforms and the payment service providers they use must register with FinTRAC, and they must report large and suspicious transactions to FinTRAC.
steve bannon
By the way, we opened the show with Castro Trudeau's, I think, Minister of Finance or whatever, says, if you're pro-Trump and you ought to be worried, we're not worried.
You better be worried.
We're not worried.
We're not worried at all.
You think, does this look worried?
We're not worried.
One of the reasons we're not worried, one of the reasons we're not worried, new polls just out, we're going to get them up.
Reuters, right track, wrong track of the nation, 27% right track, 58% wrong track.
Those are numbers that Nixon had when he left, walked across the lawn, was in August of 74, take the helicopter to San Clemente, okay?
27%, that's not independents, that's everybody, that includes Democrats, 27%.
Quinnipiac has one out simultaneously, right track, wrong track, 37, 56.
When you have a three as we told you on the afternoon of the 20th of January 2021 was illegitimate regime took control of every branch of government and absolute control the administration state of which they are that you know stand in the breach.
That we will turn this around America senior right now that 27% dovetails with other polling and dovetails with this massive turnout.
We're going to get in these primaries in Texas.
Yeah, covid crime and cost of living Joe Scarborough.
I think we win 90% of the vote on all that.
Okay, we have a unique chance to destroy the Democratic Party.
We just must remain focused.
It must be destroyed root and branch and we have the opportunity to do it.
Okay, want to go to Canada.
Now the great Patriots up there.
Castro Trudeau is in panic mode.
That voice you heard before is Christy Freeland.
She's the hammer.
I think she's deputy prime minister.
I worked a lot with her when I was in the White House.
She's very tough, very focused, and she's throwing down hard, calling all of us financiers of domestic terrorism.
David Menzies, Rebel News, done an incredible job in Canada.
Sir, get us up to date.
We see on Daily Mail and other news services and the live streams, are they taking apart the headquarters there of the truckers?
Is this thing getting shut down now by the authorities?
unidentified
Well, I understand, Steve, from my colleagues in Ottawa, right now it is the police handing out pamphlets to truckers, kind of like, this is your last warning.
Although, I think the police in Ottawa kind of resemble a WWF wrestling referee, you know, listen Crusher, I've given you nine warnings to not use that foreign object.
And if you do it again, I'm going to give you a 10th warning.
So, but in the case of Ms.
Freeland, my goodness, that's rich terrorist funding.
As I said on your show yesterday, Steve, this is the same Trudeau liberal government that in 2016 cut a check for $10.5 million to our own Homegrown al-Qaeda terrorist Omar Khadr who killed a U.S.
serviceman and partially blinded another because, well, basically he got hurt feelings and he had an allegedly rough stay at Gitmo Bay.
So when it comes to terrorist funding, there's a classic terrorist that gets rewarded by this government.
And I want to point out too, Steve, that Ms.
Freeland's maternal Ukrainian grandfather, he edited A newspaper during the Second World War that published pro-Nazi propaganda.
So I find it really rich when you see people standing up for democracy and having a peaceful protest smeared as Nazis and terrorists and bigots and racists by this government.
And by the way, the R word, racist, pretty rich again, Steve Wendt.
This is coming from Prime Minister Trudeau, who has donned blackface so many times.
Even he doesn't know what the total number is.
So that is absolutely despicable that we're going down this road.
And also for the Justice Minister David Lamedi to say, we understand these are pro-Trump supporters and they're getting funded by pro-Trump organizations.
Oh my goodness!
Geez, I guess that's even worse than being a Nazi.
Those are deplorables, right?
So we really have to shut down.
Real quickly, David, you guys at Rebel News have been doing incredible work.
steve bannon
Is this going to get shut down today?
You think it's just another bluff?
They fear escalating against the truckers?
What's your take on things?
unidentified
Well, I understand there's going to be a movement today to shut down what I would call the low-hanging fruit of the protests.
You know, the tents, the hot tub, the bouncy castles for the children.
And by the way, speaking of children, police are warning now, anyone bringing a minor to a so-called unlawful protest site, they face a fine of $5,000 and or sentencing of up to five years in jail.
So, the pressure tactics are mounting up.
The other factor, too, is the weather.
A major snowstorm, I understand, Steve, is heading to Ottawa.
We're talking up to four centimetres of snow per hour, windchill factors and minus 20, freezing rain, you name it.
steve bannon
So as they're using the kids They're using the kids, just like in Italy.
They're using the kids.
They don't want the kids to see liberty in the making.
David, how do people get you at Rebel News?
unidentified
Yes, by all means, rebelnews.com for the full meal deal.
We're also on YouTube, but as I've said before, Steve, thanks to the censorious thugs of Silicon Valley, we have to be careful of what we post.
And, you know, again, and that speaks to the despicable times we live in.
Imagine a company based in the United States of America with the First Amendment and no free speech for those cats.
steve bannon
Yeah.
We don't have a First Amendment here.
It's been trampled by the oligarchs.
OK.
Also, Viva Frye.
Make sure you go to Viva Frye.
A lot of live streaming coverage.
Going to be action today in Canada.
So support the truckers.
Stay tuned there.
David Menzies from Rebel News.
Ezra LaVance, Rebel News.
Thank you, sir.
Appreciate it.
unidentified
Thank you, Steve.
steve bannon
Let's go to somebody in the middle of the action.
Maureen Steele is one of the organizers, if not the principal organizer, of this rally that's taking place of American truckers starting in Barstow, California.
Maureen, can you get us up to speed?
I know yesterday you released a little bit of what the potential rally points will be in the caravan, in the convoy.
Can you get us up to date overnight?
Any updates?
unidentified
Not too many updates.
Hopefully within the next 24 hours we'll be releasing to the public where we're meeting to start off the actual spot in the Barstow area where we'll be rolling out of where people can bring supplies.
We have a number of volunteers that have come forward to organize the supplies to be able to get those to the truckers, get their trucks set up before they roll out.
We have a tremendous backing and People that are working behind the scenes to make this happen.
We're in daily talks, I am anyway, personally with a lot of Canadians and listening to your prior segments.
I just want to say that the Americans that I know and those of us that are in talks with Canadian citizens and the truckers, we're prepared to assist our Canadian brothers to the north.
It's pretty interesting what's unfolding, but the Canadians aren't on their own.
steve bannon
We started with the FDA, you know, the undercover hit by Project Veritas, which is amazing.
Everybody should see both videos today.
It's breathtaking, the arrogance and how open they are about how Big Pharma owns them.
We also had Ben Harn were reporting live from Rome about the story of the child being taken from the parents, essentially, because they don't want tainted blood that has the vaccine in it.
They're just not comfortable with it as the parents.
And they've asked, and now it's been taken from it.
One of the things you've said that's quite interesting is that this caravan is not just a display that you want the mandates to end.
You also want accountability.
Maureen Steele, in the trucker's mind, when you say accountability, what does that mean?
unidentified
Well, what accountability means is we want congressional hearings.
We want investigations on the local, state, and federal levels into how the COVID-19 pandemic Uh, has been handled.
And, uh, you know, if that results in, uh, you know, criminal charges, uh, eventually, however that unfolds, but this, what has happened to us over the last two years cannot go on investigated, uh, unpunished.
Uh, you know, there's a, there's enough evidence out there.
Um, like I mentioned, I work with, um, human rights lawyer, Lee Dundas, um, who, who, you know, is, is working with Tom Renz on the Department of Defense whistleblowers.
I mean, the evidence that we have against the government for what they've known, what the deal is with the shots and the cures for COVID.
I mean, I know you've had on the docs from the Global COVID Summit.
You know, the science behind, you know, there was a cure for COVID three weeks in.
So, there's a lot of explaining to be done to the American people, not just the needless deaths that occurred, but, you know, what's happened to our economy, people have lost their homes, their jobs, divorce rates are through the roof, children committing suicide.
I mean, the unintended consequences of the so-called cure for the pandemic have been devastating and catastrophic to our society.
Into the world and you bet the American people deserve an explanation the world deserves an explanation And if it takes this convoy and the truckers to be the tip of the spear is to make this happen You know, let's roll Maureen how do people we got about 30 seconds.
steve bannon
How do people get to this audience wants to help?
How did they how do they do that?
How do they get to you?
It's the people's convoy org That's where you can donate and you can find up-to-date and up-to-the-minute information on that site Maureen Steele American hero and an American patriot the trucker convoy getting ready to rally short commercial break We're gonna go down to Central America where one of our guys was hit yesterday live Ben Burquam Liberato
unidentified
Dead on the 3rd of June exactly on the same of the other person They died on this catastrophe of the volcano.
This is just unbelievable footage.
I told you guys that I was going to bring you guys to a place where there was a community that it was submerged.
By a volcano.
Hey!
Okay, what you're saying there is Oscar Ramirez.
steve bannon
We had Oscar Blue Ramirez on yesterday, as you know, reporting from Guatemala.
He's down there about these new surges coming.
We've got Todd Bensman on about what's called the ants strategy that the Mexican government's doing.
A lot going on the southern border about the invasion, okay?
So don't do what the mainstream media is doing and focus on the Russian-speaking eastern provinces of Ukraine.
We don't care.
Nobody cares, okay?
Maybe they care, that's fine.
And they should.
That's something for them to work at.
Something for Germany and Europe.
And these slackers have never carried their weight in these alliances where the American people have another, what are they working on now?
Another 10% increase to the 5% increase to the defense budget, almost $800 billion, $900 billion.
The real number's a trillion.
Well, while that's happening, the real invasion is going on in your southern border.
That was Oscar Blue Ramirez.
Let's bring in Ben Berquam.
Ben, explain to our audience what happened.
You have guys show up who look like in shotguns with masks.
They look like paramilitary.
Was he ambushed yesterday?
ben bergquam
Yeah, from the word that we got, Blue, and he is safe now, just so everybody that hasn't got the word, we did get word he is safe.
They're trying to get an escort for him out of Guatemala back to Mexico.
What he found out afterwards was that it was six to eight MS-13 gang members that basically have this area.
Fuego volcano in Guatemala. They have it set up to do exactly what they did there. The government knows about it. The local military actually said they know the players that are involved. But you're talking about a third world country that you know is run by corruption. And so he was robbed. He and his counterpart that was there. A Reuters reporter were robbed yesterday.
Thank God they were safe, but they left him with just his I.
D. In the clothes on his back. This is this is the reality. What what he experienced and it's it's you know, it definitely shook him up and hopefully we'll be getting on here in just a second. But it shook him up.
This is the reality for life in second and third world countries, and that's the reason why it's so critical that we have a sovereign border.
The only way that America can be a blessing to the rest of the world is if we don't become Guatemala, if we don't allow our nation to become that, and that is what the Democrats are importing into this country.
Every single day we have tens of thousands of people coming across, MS-13 members, just like the guys that robbed Blue yesterday.
It has to stop, but thank God he's okay.
steve bannon
Remember, MSN 13 are the guys up in, I think, Northern Virginia and in Nassau County, out in Long Island.
ben bergquam
They're all over.
steve bannon
They cut, yeah, but the concentration, they cut the arms off.
If you like, go up against them, they cut your arms off.
American citizens in the United States.
These are, MSN 13 is a terrorist organization.
We get all this money, we're pumping trains in Afghanistan and Iraq and Eastern Ukraine and all this nonsense, right?
And you've got an invasion of the Southern border by paramilitary terrorists.
Go ahead, Ben.
ben bergquam
These guys are hardened murderers.
A lot of them have all they know.
They're terrorists, there's no question about it, but you think about Islamic terrorists, it's an ideology.
With folks like MS-13 members, it's a culture.
These guys were raised into it.
Childhood, they've seen rape and death and murder.
Many of them start murdering at 11 and 12 years old.
Some of them are sicarios by the time they're 13.
This is the mindset of people, and you don't just change that overnight.
You don't just invite them into your country and expect that to change.
That's the reality of what we are importing, and it is.
They're all over our country already as we speak.
steve bannon
Tell us about the special.
You start your new series on Real America's Voice, 7 p.m.
on Saturday.
What is it?
ben bergquam
It's everything that we're talking about.
Law & Border is the new show.
We're going along with La Jolla, Texas PD.
We're starting with La Jolla, Texas PD and Pinell County Sheriffs.
We're going to be going riding along and seeing what, when that border invasion crosses the border and enters your community and crosses into your community and into your neighborhood and into your town and knocks on your door, what does that sound like?
We're going to be exposing what the mainstream media doesn't want you to see.
steve bannon
Okay.
You hang on, I got Oscar, but hang on one second.
I want people to understand, when you're watching this with Ben Burkham on Saturday night, the La Jolla Police Department, Hispanic Americans, do not have, with a over $5 trillion, $5.5 trillion federal budget, and a domestic budget in Texas, which is massive, they're having to go out and come to our audience and others that we're putting in contact with to pay for new vehicles.
It's a joke.
It's a sick joke, but it's a joke.
We have every ability to shut down the border and to stop it all.
We can do it immediately.
Texas authorities have the ability to do it.
The U.S.
government has the ability to do it.
They're not doing it for a reason.
One, they want the cheap labor.
Don't ever forget that.
They want the cheap labor and they want the bigger markets.
Okay?
They want more mouths to feed.
And they want the cheap labor.
You could stop this immediately.
It's not that hard.
Look what President Trump did.
I've got Oscar Blue Ramirez on.
Oscar, our audience just saw your footage.
First off, are you okay, sir?
unidentified
Good morning, Mr. Bannon.
Yes, we are secure now.
The Consul of Mexico in Guatemala contacted us last night and he deployed an operation of protection for us at the place that we are stationed right now.
Uh, as they are going to direct us today, uh, back, uh, and safe, uh, to our country of Mexico.
We are, uh, five hours away, uh, from, uh, from, uh, you know, the border, uh, between Guatemala and Mexico, sir.
steve bannon
What was it?
Do we, have we ascertained, was it MS-13?
Who, who was it and what were they trying to do?
Shut down your broadcast or just steal your equipment?
unidentified
I was broadcasting this eruption of this volcano trying to, you know, explain the narrative of these environmentalists that they're saying that people are migrating due to natural disasters and the volcano was erupting yesterday.
I went over there to document and I was in a live feed and there was a community that it was destroyed by an eruption back in 2018.
I walked in and there was a person that we were doing an interview which Uh, she is in cahoots with all this operation of people from MS-13s and vandals and criminals that they operate on this, you know, uh, community.
As we were on the top of the mountain, uh, you can actually see, I, I, they did not realize and, and, you know, and thank God they did not realize that I was in a live stream.
Uh, and I flipped the camera and they were walking towards me with a shotgun.
Uh, immediately they told me to kneel down and, uh, you know, profanity.
Uh, was one of the, you know, the languages to address me to, uh, you know, dispose all of my, uh, all of my belongings to them.
Uh, they could not unlock the phone.
So they made me, uh, uh, continuously insulting me and then pushing the, uh, shotgun in my head.
Then unlock the phone and lock the phone.
Uh, I was with another colleague of a professional photographer also that we were documented on this plate.
Uh, and there was not only two individuals that we were watching in the mountain as I was Getting my bearings together with this.
We saw six more individuals that they were, you know, dressed up, covered their faces, all of them with shotguns.
It is a complete operation.
It is a cartel operation.
People around the neighborhood told us that they have raped women.
They have raped children.
Also, an American reporter, most recently, she was also robbed and also abused on that particular site, which is You know, it's a catastrophe of a volcano, of an eruption that happened there in 2018, sir.
steve bannon
Okay, but you're okay and you're going to be, the Mexican Consul's going to help you get out of the country?
unidentified
Yes, sir.
We're going to be traveling today.
The Mexican Consul contacted us and told us that he was going to secure us all the way back to the Guatemala-Mexico border.
From there, I will cross, and then I will, you know, be more safer now that I will be in Mexico.
steve bannon
Okay, how do people get to your website?
How do they follow this?
And we're going to get the footage up.
We've already got it up on our Getter account this morning, the stills.
How do people get to you, Oscar?
unidentified
Yes, you know, at Real America's Voice News, of course, Oscar, El Blue, YouTube, and Getter.
Right now, those are the accounts that I'm going on.
Okay, you be safe and Godspeed.
steve bannon
Oscar Blue Ramirez, the field correspondent for the Border News Network.
Be safe.
Ben Berquam, once again, when's your special Law & Border back up?
It's up on Saturday at 7 o'clock.
How do people find out about it?
Where's the trailer?
ben bergquam
Yep, Saturday 7 o'clock.
You can get that on my getter at Ben Burquam or on all of our Real America's Voice News.
It'll be 7 p.m.
Eastern Time on Saturday.
And again, that's just the first episode of this new show that we're going to expose what's really happening down here.
And this is, you know, unfortunately, Blue Story will probably be part of the next episode showing what really happens.
steve bannon
We'll talk after the show about getting Blue some more equipment, but we can't have him out of the field.
He's too good.
Thanks.
Ben Burquam.
ben bergquam
Yes, sir.
steve bannon
Oscar Blue Ramirez.
Yes, sir.
They put their life on the line all the time.
This is as dangerous as it gets down there.
All this nonsense about Eastern Ukraine, the Russians being this, this, but being NATO.
You've got all these deadbeats coming up here.
They don't pay their bills on defense.
They all agree to pay 2% of their GDP and none of them make it.
I think maybe Poland does.
Maybe Poland.
But not the big guys.
Germany, I think, spends $30 billion a year.
That's tip money from what we spend.
Let's get Todd Bensman up.
Is Todd there?
Todd, tell us what we just saw there, sir.
You deal in this neighborhood every day.
todd bensman
Yeah, first of all, I want to just point out that what happened to Oscar Uh, is emblematic of just how dangerous it is that what he's doing to, uh, what he's having to brave to bring this kind of information to the American people.
And it's why, partly why a lot of maybe American media won't go down there.
Even Fox news is covering the border, but they won't let their reporter crossover to the Mexican side.
That's where the story is.
That's where you can meet the migrants and see what's actually coming to us.
Uh, so I just want to, um, Shout out to people to really kind of recognize what Oscar and Ben and others do have to brave down there to bring that story to us.
steve bannon
Look, this, your reporting and this audience has got, Biden right now is trying, they're, because you just heard, you know, Morning Joe, they're in full meltdown about the numbers are so bad.
Right track, we're on track now, out 27% right track of all Americans.
And that's shocking.
That's not independence.
Independence are in the teens, which is really a proxy for the American people.
Todd, I tell you what, we're going to take a break.
When we come back, I want you to walk through the numbers and how the emphasis of your organization, CIS, your reporting, this audience, etc., is getting the Biden administration to panic.
And they're trying to at least optically.
Try to toughen up, because they understand that this invasion, the more it continues, the more their numbers slip, because everybody knows immigration, illegal immigration, border security, and the crime it brings, and disease, is a top, top, top issue.
todd bensman
Short break.
steve bannon
Todd Bensman, Steve Cortez, right?
We've got Carrie Lake.
Got a lot of folks in the war room next.
alexandria ocasio-cortez
The inclusion of undocumented people in relief packages, stimulus checks, FEMA assistance, and we've actually helped huge amounts of undocumented families in our district get federal relief that many others were trying to lock
unidentified
them out of.
steve bannon
Okay, that's AOC talking about you taxpayers paying for illegal aliens, paying the full freight for them, and she's bragging about it.
How that's going to play, Democrats, you think it's going to play well?
That's going to play well to America?
Don't think so.
Okay, let's go to Victor Avila.
He is running down for Texas Land Commissioner, former ICE agent, a long-term contributor to the show.
Victor, I saw some internal analytics about the Rio Grande Valley in South Texas about the turnout for the primary.
unidentified
What do you hear so far?
I'm seeing the same thing.
I saw some numbers from the Laredo area and very, very strong Republican numbers.
Now, remember, This is a highly Hispanic area that has been flipping as we speak ever since 2020.
And I think that trend is going to continue and you're going to see a tremendous outpour of Republican conservative Hispanic voters come out in this primary.
steve bannon
Victor, we've had Oscar Blue about his assault yesterday by MS-13.
We got Todd Benson come on talking about the numbers that the optics of the Biden administration is now in full panic mode about these.
Give us an update on the border, on the situation there, what you're seeing as a former ICE agent, sir.
unidentified
Yeah, first of all, I'm very glad that Oscar is doing good.
He's a good friend of mine and I want to thank him for all the work that he does on the ground as well as Todd.
And Ben, um, we communicate a lot and talk about this situation.
Let me tell you, uh, Steve, it is, it is out of control.
Every, I just got back from Kenny County from El Paso, Texas, and it's never ending.
Uh, 12 illegal aliens board on the same airplane that I go from, again, I jump on from El Paso to DFW, all single adult males with no identification.
This is a continuing thing that we're facing in Texas.
The invasion.
It's no longer a crisis.
This is an invasion.
That's why I'm running for this very important office.
I'm going to be the Texas borders are.
That's what I'm going to do with this position and finally secure the border with our Attorney General, with our Governor, with our Lieutenant Governor.
We've had about enough here in Texas and it's time to secure it.
steve bannon
Victor, how do people find out about you?
How do they find out more about your campaign?
All of it.
Where do they go?
unidentified
Please visit VictorAvilaTX.com.
VictorAvilaTX.com.
Thank you so much for all your donations.
Keep them coming.
We need to get to this primary.
We're almost there.
I find myself right now, I had to do this hit from the car because it's very windy out here in Hill Country.
I'm heading to Fredericksburg, Texas.
If you're out there in the area, come see me.
VictorAvilaTX.com.
Thank you.
steve bannon
God bless you.
You're a patriot and a hero, sir.
I've got to tell you.
Thank you very much.
One of the things that makes this show, the reason I love doing this show, is the people we get to give a platform to, to address America and to talk to fellow citizens.
These are heroes and patriots.
Let's go back to Bensman, Todd Bensman, CIS, wrote the book about the jihad at the border.
Todd, walk us through, the numbers are slightly changing, and Biden's in a panic right now, because they understand this polls terribly.
And you've got AOC sitting there saying, yeah, I'm going out of my way to make sure we pay for everybody.
We're going to have the airline union, the stewardess union, she's all about getting Trump people banned permanently from planes, right?
Don't wear a let's go Brandon mask, that's going to get you thrown off a plane.
But illegal aliens can board with no IDs.
In Biden's America, that's fine.
In AOC's America, that's fine.
Todd Benzman, where do we stand on all this?
todd bensman
Well, the numbers for January are going to be coming out soon, and what I'm hearing is that they're going to be about 154,000 for that month, which is down fairly significantly from prior months, but it's still twice and even three times what it was a year, year and a half ago, so it's in the ionosphere.
But there is a context to the declining numbers.
For one thing, there were a couple of freezes Uh, that, that, uh, hit Mexico, northern Mexico and Texas and really kind of shut the border down for a week at a time.
And I think that that's going to have an effect on those numbers, but there's something else happening.
I think that people should just be aware of that.
The polling on the border is utterly damaging to the democratic party, to the Biden White House.
And we're seeing, uh, the Biden people implement Trumpian policies.
In secret.
They don't want their left base to know about this, but they are doing air deportations in very significant numbers, bringing, you know, tens of thousands of now Guatemalan women and children all the way back to Guatemala and Honduras and El Salvador.
And they just restarted repatriation flights again to Haiti.
And the Haitians down in Mexico, when I was there, are saying, we're not coming.
This is Trumpian policy, I think, for the midterm election, for the optics on the midterm elections.
They see this as incredibly damaging.
And by the time we get to September, October, November, they're going to want to be able to say, hey, what are you talking about?
We brought the numbers down.
But on the other hand, the numbers are sky high.
Historically, this is still the greatest mass migration crisis in American history.
steve bannon
American, I just want to make sure people understand this.
Army division is roughly 10,000 people, so that's 15 divisions.
In this invasion, 15 divisions.
Correct me if I'm wrong, I asked Cortez because he's my brain.
I think at Normandy we landed on D-Day 189,000 troops.
The third army under Patton that rolled across Europe was 350,000 men.
So you're talking about 15 divisions.
This is a down month.
Relative to where they've been.
And now they're panicked because this posse in the war room, you're blowing these heels.
They understand this is toxic.
This is their new third rail.
Todd, give us your, what are your contact points to people?
Because I want to get to, and I don't have time today, this whole thing of this ant strategy in Mexico.
I gotta spend more time with you on that.
But how do people get to your writings?
How do they see, get to your book?
How do they see what you're doing at CIS?
todd bensman
Okay, I'm going to slip this in anyway.
There are 30,000 At least migrants that are being stuck in Tapachula.
Every one of them is going to be heading this way soon.
My book is America's Covert Border War.
Available anywhere books are sold.
It's about the jihadist threat.
We've had a lot of people on the FBI watch list cross the border just very recently and disappear into the country, including a Venezuelan on the watch list who was set free in Detroit.
Also, I'm on Getter, T. Bensman at Getter.
steve bannon
By the way, we're going to get to this, what's called the Ant Strategy down there, the 30,000 that are waiting to cross.
This is still a massive invasion of the United States of America, and we're fighting back.
Todd Bensman, God bless you.
Todd Bensman from CIS, author and adventurer down there.
Put his life on the line on the reporting from Mexico.
Blues down in Guatemala.
Short break.
