Well the virus has now killed more than 100 people in China and new cases have been confirmed around the world. | |
| So 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. | ||
| 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 100 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, then the worst happens. | ||

War Room. | |
| Pandemic. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Okay, Xinhua News Agency reporting their widespread power outages across Taiwan on Thursday, Taipei, New Taipei, Taichung, Tainan, and Kaohsiung, the port city, which I spent a little time in on my Destroyer. | ||
| So power outages there. | ||
| They're trying to get to the bottom of it. | ||
| They're going to report back. | ||
| Remember, there's no conspiracies, but there are no coincidences. | ||
| And this is my point. | ||
| You're a combatant in this. | ||
| You're a combatant. | ||
| And this is this is a Global conflict, right? | ||
| The Chinese Communist Party has been at war with us, economic war, cyber and information war, for many, many, many years. | ||
| And now this is all coming up. | ||
| And our whole point is that people in charge have to start to be honest and straightforward with the American people. | ||
| Have to tell the American people exactly what's going on, what the stakes are. | ||
| And I think the Federal Reserve Chairs need to come back. | ||
| I was not happy with the questioning yesterday. | ||
| I thought a lot of it was very sophomoric. | ||
| We need real questions. | ||
| We've got to get our Secretary of Treasury to be up there, the head of the Federal Reserve. | ||
| Joe Biden, to me, should come before the nation. | ||
| He had a chance the other night, and all was mumbo-jumbo. | ||
| Part of the mumbo-jumbo is what's going to happen. | ||
| This thing about, here's how we're going to beat inflation. | ||
| We're going to lower cost. | ||
| Lower cost. | ||
| What does that even mean? | ||
| You've been in the audience, you've been enough business meetings with some guy that we're going to lower cost. | ||
| OK, clown, walk me through it. | ||
| Give me some details. | ||
| Let's go bang, bang, bang. | ||
| What do you got? | ||
| What do you got? | ||
| And Joe Biden, this is what is so reckless and dangerous about the situation we're in. | ||
| Philip Patrick. | ||
| Walk us through that. | ||
|

|
He's just going to lower costs with all the actions he's taken. | |
| His actions have exploded. | ||
| This is both cost and demand driven. | ||
| We're caught in a double pincer because he keeps printing money, and Shelby and Leahy, these clowns, Senator Claghorn from Alabama, Shelby and Leahy, they're going to come out with a $3.5 trillion budget deficit for this year alone, which is just going to be printing more money. | ||
| That's all we're going to do. | ||
| They haven't stopped quantitative easing. | ||
| They haven't nudged interest rates. | ||
| We got a supply push, as Navarro says, inflation. | ||
| We got demand pull. | ||
| We got the worst of both worlds. | ||
| And he said, we're going to lower costs. | ||
| Philip Patrick, what does this clown mean by that? | ||
| It's nonsensical. | ||
| It's confused. | ||
| The whole thing's bananas. | ||
| So let's look at it. | ||
| So, like I said, the bulk of the plan just has no effect on inflation at all. The two areas that might, one is what we discussed regarding gas prices, but again, to release 30 million barrels of US strategic oil reserves isn't going to do anything. It is literally, no pun intended, a drop in a bucket. The other side of things, and this is going to be familiar to people, was this infrastructure plan, right? | ||
| The Build Back Better plan. | ||
| Again, pushing it aggressively. | ||
| In fact, he went so far as to say, we're not talking about infrastructure weeks, we're going to have an infrastructure decade. | ||
| Now, again, like the oil argument, there's a real economic argument to be made here, right? | ||
| If we're talking about actual construction, it's an opportunity to create jobs and generally improve transportation that can lower costs. | ||
| But there's a couple of main issues with it. | ||
| One, infrastructure building in this way involves massive upfront costs. | ||
| So, yes, it can lower inflation longer term. | ||
| Shorter term, it fuels inflation, right? | ||
| These costs highly inflationary, and it's going to involve spending money we just don't have. | ||
| The second side of things is how are we going to pay for it? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| Biden said we're going to use taxpayer dollars to build America, to rebuild America. | ||
| That's how we're going to win our economic war with China. | ||
| It's nonsense. | ||
| We're not using taxpayer dollars to do this. | ||
| We're using debt. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| That's more money borrowed. | ||
| Now, a lot of this money comes from bond buying. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Social security. | ||
| Where does the rest come from? | ||
| are our economic foes, right? | ||
| We borrow from other nations, most notably China. | ||
| So Biden's solutions to inflation aren't solutions at all. | ||
| In fact, they're inflationary, they fuel inflation, and they weaken us geopolitically. | ||
| There is no plan here, it's just a bunch of nonsense. | ||
| That's all it is. | ||
| I am so surprised that I get disappointed after he speaks. | ||
| I should know better, but every single time, he disappoints me more. | ||
| It's ridiculous. | ||
| I got to have you watch The War Room more. | ||
| You're killing me, Patrick. | ||
| Philip, how do people, okay, the world's on fire, people want more than ever, and this is what we tell our audience. | ||
| It's not our decision, and we're not here to push you or something. | ||
| We're here to give you options, opportunities to get more information and to get relationships with people. | ||
| How do people get to Birchgold? | ||
| Because now more than ever, this audience, every adult, needs to immerse themselves into understanding what hedges are in times of trouble. | ||
| And we're in troubled times, and it's going to get a lot worse before it gets better, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| And that assures the turning of the earth. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| Especially with the collection of clowns that they got running things. | ||
| Philip, how did they get to you? | ||
| Of course. | ||
| So, Birchgold.com forward slash Bannon. | ||
| Really, really good information. | ||
| You can reach me directly at Philip Patrick on Getter. | ||
| Okay, brother, thank you. | ||
| By the way, we've got exit polling now from Texas. | ||
| Politico's got a huge story on what we told you, the Hispanics, and particularly Hispanic women in Texas, backed by the GOP. | ||
| They're coming to MAGA. | ||
| These are MAGA candidates. | ||
| I'm going to get to Cortez in a second. | ||
| I get Boris is going to come back on, so we're going to do a lot of juggling of some of the folks we've got coming up here. | ||
| But Cortez, I gotta go. | ||
| Can we play the Morning Joe clip? | ||
| I wanna play this Morning Joe clip. | ||
| MSNBC's getting to be a beacon of truth in small slithers, right? | ||
| When it leaks out. | ||
| Let's go to Morning Joe. | ||
| The stock futures are holding steady this morning after all three major indexes shot up more than 1.6% yesterday. | ||
| This follows news that the Fed is likely to raise interest rates in two weeks to fight inflation despite the war in Ukraine. | ||
| Meanwhile, oil prices are once again surging with crude oil trading as high as $115 a barrel, the highest since September of 2008. | ||
| Cortez, put that in context for us. | ||
| This is the thing about, the guy even said on the Russian oligarchs, they're hitting them at the surface with their soccer clubs and their big yachts. | ||
| That's meaningless. | ||
| He said they'll make them more money. | ||
| If you want to go after them, stop the $1 billion a day that Western Europe and the United States is buying in energy for this. | ||
| Cortez, put it in context before we go to Texas. | ||
| No, exactly correct, Steve. | ||
| You know, listen, do you know who loves $110 crude oil, which is where it is right now? | ||
| The oligarchs and Putin, right? | ||
| That's what funds the war machine. | ||
| But, of course, Western elites, whether it's Biden or his Davos pals over in Europe, they're all unwilling, and in the case of Europe, frankly, unable to stop buying Russian oil. | ||
| But they are willing to punish regular babushkas, regular grandmothers, and regular working stiffs over in Russia and make the rubles, the meager amount of rubles they have in their pocket of their savings account, Worthless. | ||
| But to get to Mika's point here, by the way, and I'm not surprised that she would miss this. | ||
| I praised MSNBC a bit earlier, so I'm going to slam it now. | ||
| I have to rectify things. | ||
| But she misses the point. | ||
| Yes, the Fed Chair Powell said he's going to raise interest rates, but the markets were expecting a 50 basis point increase, meaning a half percentage point. | ||
| And instead, he made it very clear, I'm only doing 25. | ||
| So, he is already using, as we predicted he would, he is already using this Ukraine crisis as an excuse to not normalize monetary policy. | ||
| The stock market loves that. | ||
| Great news for the owners of a lot of financial assets. | ||
| Terrible news for regular Americans. | ||
| And Steve, you know, I always like to go to the data here, too. | ||
| Let's go to the data on what kind of a state our economy is actually in, because don't take my word for it or Steve Bannon's word for it. | ||
| Let's look at the Atlanta Fed GDP Now model. | ||
| And I sent This is chart one. | ||
| So what I really like about this, Steve, is that this is a statistically driven model. | ||
| It is not about opinion. | ||
| This is not the prognostication of an economic forecaster. | ||
| This is a data model, and it's pretty accurate over time. | ||
| If you look back historically, the Atlanta Fed GDP model now says that the growth for quarter one, the quarter that we're currently in, is going to be 0.0. | ||
| It's the Blutarski, John Blutarski from Animal House, of economic growth forecast. | ||
| You have no grade point average. | ||
|
unidentified
|
0.0. | |
| And if you look at the trajectory there, it is decidedly downward. | ||
| In my view, we're going well below zero into a recession. | ||
| I think that was a foregone conclusion even before these misbegotten policy actions of Joe Biden. | ||
| But what he has done now regarding the currency war and what we see happening In energy markets in particular, but broad commodity markets in general, to me, is going to make a recession all the more a sure thing and very likely to be much, much deeper. | ||
| Let me give you another market angle here that I think is fascinating. | ||
| You won't probably hear about anywhere else, and that is fertilizer prices, because I think a lot of folks probably don't realize how significant Russia is to the fertilizer market. | ||
| Russia and its ally Belarus together, they control 40% of global potash exports For the world, a critical component of fertilizer. | ||
| Russia is also the number one exporter of nitrogen in the entire world. | ||
| And if we look at, I want to show this next chart, if we look at a chart of the prices of fertilizer, and this is compiled by the St. | ||
| Louis Federal Reserve Bank, and this puts together ammonia, nitrate, nitric acid, urea, it's an amalgam of fertilizer inputs. | ||
| And if we look at this chart, this is chart two, folks, if we have it, If we look at this chart, we will see, well, I can talk you through it if we don't see it. | ||
| I can talk you through it. | ||
| This chart has absolutely exploded. | ||
| It was extremely tame and benign and stable under President Trump. | ||
| It saw a range during President Trump's entire term, their index from 69 to 87. | ||
| It was basically in the 70s and 80s, the entirety of his term. | ||
| What happened since Joe Biden illegitimately prevailed in November of 2020 is this index absolutely vaulted higher and got all the way to 180 as of January. | ||
| They have not calculated it yet for February. | ||
| So that's as of January before the Ukraine crisis. | ||
| Now given how important Russia is to the global fertilizer market and given that it is planting season, there's the chart now you can see, And I highlighted when Biden was elected and what has happened to fertilizer prices ever since. | ||
| And again, the reality today is actually even worse than that chart reflects, because they haven't compiled February and certainly not March, obviously, yet. | ||
| My point here is, planting season in the United States, in the Northern Hemisphere countries, commences right now. | ||
| Fertilizer prices were already exploding. | ||
| Russia is a dominant player in fertilizer, not just in energy, but in the components of fertilizer. | ||
| The economic war we are waging against Russia right now has many risks. | ||
| To me, the biggest risk is dethroning King Dollar. | ||
| But there's also a risk to the dinner table, to the lunch pails of America because food prices are going to explode even more because we have decided to engage in economic war with Russia because they are engaged in a conflict, very wrongfully so, engaged in a conflict that is meaningless to the United States national security. | ||
| Your family is a combatant in this. | ||
| We'll walk you through every day about why you guys are active combatants in this war. | ||
| I want to go now to Texas. | ||
| How we're going to take care of this is destroy the Democratic Party as an institution on November 8th, and that's happening. | ||
| We're working on this every second of every day. | ||
| Walk me through. | ||
| Politico's got a big story. | ||
| I got Boris up here with some Exit polling. | ||
| Steve, set the table. | ||
| What we've talked about in the Rio Grande Valley and South Texas, even Politico now admits it's a sweeping victory for Hispanic Americans. | ||
| No, listen, nobody can deny anymore, even corporate media. | ||
| You know, we talked earlier this week about the New York Times story. | ||
| It was actually quite a fair, balanced story, believe it or not, on the movement among Hispanics in Texas to the right and to the America First movement. | ||
| And they said that in their interviews of candidates and voters in South Texas, they found that That they believe, properly so, that the Democratic Party is engaged in an agenda for the destruction of patriotism, of religious life, of tradition, of the border, all of that. | ||
| So we see right now the rise of just a mammoth movement. | ||
| And by the way, this is going on nationwide. | ||
| This is going on in the Bronx, in New York, in LA County, in California. | ||
| And it's certainly going on in South Texas. | ||
| So I think Steve, you and I have talked about this a lot on the show. | ||
| We knew very well, and I think we have done a decent job of describing the rise of the bad hombres, how much Hispanic men have been rallying to the America First agenda. | ||
| What we now see are a lot of these Latinas who are really rising to the forefront, many of whom either already won or are likely to win in a runoff. | ||
| Short commercial break. | ||
| Proud Latinas can't get enough of it in the MAGA movement. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Short commercial break. | ||
| Boris is going to give us some exit polling. | ||
| It's going to blow your mind in the state of Texas. | ||
| and all three of them, I believe, are going to be Congresswomen coming up very soon. | ||
| Short commercial break. Proud Latinas can't get enough of it in the MAGA movement. | ||
| Okay, short commercial break. Boris is going to give us some exit polling. | ||
| It's going to blow your mind in the state of Texas. Next. | ||

We will fight till they're all gone. We rejoice when the 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. | ||
| Mypillow.com promo code War Room. | ||
| We've got the overstock sale. | ||
| Some of these sales are unbelievable. | ||

| But the big sale there is these colored Giza Dream Sheets. | ||
| The queen size, only $49.99. | ||
| I think normally $150. | ||

| It's an overstock. | ||
| So go there today, take action, action, action. | ||
| You've got everything else in our square. | ||
| These sales are going to blow you away. | ||
| MyPillow.com, promo code WORM. | ||
| OK, let's get back to more signal in the signal here. | ||
| Remember, our task and purpose is the destruction of the Democratic Party as an institution on November 8th, not just winning and not picking up a couple of seats. | ||
| No, to have a sweeping victory in the House of Representatives and the Senate. | ||
| Yes, we'll get to the Senate, too. | ||
| But the House of Representatives like a hundred seat pickup that destroys them institutionally, virtually in perpetuity. | ||
| OK, to do that, one of the keys that picks the lock Is the Hispanic vote, the Hispanic American MAGA vote, as Cortez has talked about for years on the show we've talked about since the beginning. | ||
| Now, the part that is the proxy for that is South Texas in the Rio Grande Valley. | ||
| And that's where we harpoon on the time. | ||
| And guess what? | ||
| As fate would have it, we just had a primary in Texas and fabulous news. | ||
| I'm bringing Boris back in. | ||
| Boris had to go to a meeting, but called me. | ||
| He had just got the exit polls. | ||
| This is inside baseball information. | ||
| Boris, what do you got for me? | ||
| Steve, it is always signal, not noise for this audience, and we always deliver what we promise. | ||
| We promised exit polling yesterday, and exit polling we have, and here it is, and it is absolutely groundbreaking, earth-shattering. | ||
| Let me start with specific districts, and then we'll go to counties. | ||
| In Texas, these are two South Texas I did not stutter. | ||
| I did not say it wrongfully. | ||
| Monica De La Cruz won the GOP primary. | ||
| Turnout increased by 71% since 2018. | ||
| I did not stutter. | ||
| I did not say it wrongfully. | ||
| Turnout increased by 71% in Texas 15. | ||
| In Texas 34, where Mayra Flores won, turnout increased by 32% since 2018. | ||
| These are absolutely groundbreaking numbers. | ||
| Let's go back overall. | ||
| We talked yesterday about how it was about 810,000 advantage in the primary for Republicans in 2010, down to about 500,000 in 2018. | ||
| down to about 500,000 in 2018. | ||
| It is now back up to over 900,000. | ||
| 900,000 advantage for Republicans over Democrats in the primaries overall in the state of Texas. | ||
| 85% higher turnout rate for Republicans over Democrats. | ||
| Compared to 2018, Republicans up by 9%, Democrats down by 13%. | ||
| That is a delta of 22% in hard numbers. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| 22 spread. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| These are huge numbers. | ||
| And let me go through some South Texas counties really quick. | ||
| Massive gains and all driven by Hispanic voters. | ||
| Webb County turnout increased by 87%. | ||
| Raw votes increased by 108%. | ||
| Hidalgo County turnout increased 84%, Roe Votes increased 113%. | ||
| Cameron County increased by 137%, Roe Votes increased by 162%. | ||
| That means almost tripled. | ||
| In Starr County, I left the biggest for last, the best for last, baby. | ||
| In Starr County, turnout increased by 10,640 percent. | ||
| Raw votes increased by 11,720 percent. | ||
| Over 10 times. | ||
| This is a domination, and it sets up what we're working towards. | ||
| 100 seats, 100 years. | ||
| We were all looking at Texas because that was the first battle, and that battle has been won. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's been won by MAGA, by Hispanic MAGA, and we're on our way to victory. | |
| Let me say something. | ||
| This is because of an issue about borders, invasions, and sovereignty. | ||
| And it ain't in eastern, in Russian-speaking eastern Ukraine, okay? | ||
| It's in the southern border of this country, and it's by the people that had to take the brunt of that, and that is hard-working, blue-collar, Hispanic Americans, as we have preached from day one. | ||
| And now it's coming on Roots. | ||
| So MSNBC, I don't want to hear your whole thing that this is white nationalism, white Christian nationalism, as they're shrinking. | ||
| We are growing. | ||
| We are ascendant. | ||
| Inclusive nationalism is the key that picks the lock. | ||
| 70% to 75% of the people in this country agree with what we believe. | ||
| And we're going to round them all up and have them vote. | ||
| These guys are saying the end of democracy? | ||
| They're about to get the business end of democracy, which is blowout wins and a hundred seat pickup and winning in D plus 10, D plus 12 districts. | ||
| And to blow these guys in the smithereens, the great Royce White, the populist running up in Minneapolis against Omar, he's going to be on a night and give his rebuttal. | ||
| To Tlaib's left-wing rebuttal of Joe Biden. | ||
| He's going to be on here tonight and tell you what nonsense that is. | ||
| Because we're going to pick up 50% of black men in this country are going to vote in this primary for MAGA, America First candidates. | ||
| Boris, you're going to be back on tonight to go into more detail. | ||
| Thank you very much. | ||
| We'll see you back up here tonight. | ||
| We'll get a little more organized. | ||
| Fabulous. | ||
| Cortez. | ||
| You've been at this with the Trump campaign and the MAGA movement since I think 15, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| Walk me through what those exit polls just tell you in Texas. | ||
| Listen, it's incredibly encouraging, but of course we can't get complacent, right? | ||
| We got to keep grinding, keep working, but it's incredibly encouraging. | ||
| And by the way, to connect these two discussions, elections in South Texas with the national security analysis that we've been so rightly focused on here today, you know, the foreign policy establishment elites, they sit in their Georgetown salons in Washington and they view the world as a chess board, right? | ||
| And they play this ridiculous game. | ||
| They think of chess, they play it very badly and the consequences are terrible, but who pays the price? | ||
| Well, it's generally young people from places like Stark County in South Texas. | ||
| Brave young men with names like Martinez who will have to go over and unfortunately pay the very dire price, pay the dire consequences of the globalist mistakes of the Davos set who still dominates far too much of America's foreign policy. | ||
| So you're exactly right. | ||
| These issues are connected. | ||
| We do have a border crisis. | ||
| It's not anywhere near Crimea or the Black Sea. | ||
| It's on our own border. | ||
| And I'm glad Boris mentioned Starr County because it's a place that I focused a lot on. | ||
| It is the most Hispanic county in the entire United States. | ||
| On the U.S.-Mexico border, 94% Hispanic. | ||
| Hillary Clinton in 2016 won that county by a whopping 60%. | ||
| Fast forward to 2020. | ||
| Donald Trump did not quite win it, but he only lost it by 5%. | ||
| A 55% move in four years. | ||
| Steve, you know those kinds of shifts just do not happen in politics in only five years. | ||
| We're going to win that seat and not win it by 5%. | ||
| We're going to win it by a running away margin in 2024 with whomever the America first presidential candidate is. | ||
| I hope it's Donald Trump, but whoever it is, he is he is going, he or she is going to win Star County and win it running away because Hispanic Americans are gravitating to the America First movement because they believe in cultural conservatism and they believe in populist economic nationalism. | ||
| That is the winning combination for all working class people but particularly so for Hispanics. | ||
| Cultural conservatism and populist economic nationalism. | ||
| That right there is the formula. | ||
| That's the formula. | ||
| Solve the equation. | ||
| Solve for the formula. | ||
| Cortez, I know you want to do a big analysis on this political piece in the exit polls. | ||
| What's your social media? | ||
| How do people get to you? | ||
| Yes, please find me and please find my article on the dollar on my sub stack. | ||
| It's linked at my social media, which is at the getter. | ||
| I am at Steve very simple there. | ||
| I'm almost at 200,000 followers on getter. | ||
| So war room posse. | ||
| Please get me over 200 K. You can also follow me on Twitter. | ||
| I'm at Cortez Steve Cortez with an S. Amazing work. | ||
| Thank you for taking time away today. | ||
| Appreciate it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you. | |
| Okay, with all these victories, we've got a lot of things to clean up. | ||
| We've got a lot of things. | ||
| I want to bring in the great Joe Kelly. | ||
| The report has been all over 6 January. | ||
| They've got this big news story out today, some big conspiracy. | ||
| Where is the hearings on 6 January, little Jamie Raskin? | ||
| We were promised primetime hearings. | ||
| We were promised primetime hearings. | ||
| We understand that COVID amazingly went away, and so we don't see Fauci anymore. | ||
| No mask. | ||
| That all went away. | ||
| Because the truckers are coming to tell you, you're going to take away the mandates and hold people accountable. | ||
| So you're so gutless. | ||
| That's all gone. | ||
| Now I got it. | ||
| Where's little Jimmy Raskin? | ||
| And where is Liz Cheney? | ||
| Where's my nighttime? | ||
| Did the Watergate hearings 2.0? | ||
| Where are they? | ||
| Where are they, please? | ||
| MSNBC can interrupt the bombing in Ukraine. | ||
| They can interrupt it for a couple hours to have these mesmerizing hearings. | ||
| Where are they? | ||
| Please, you promised them the first week of March. | ||
| Where's the first week of March? | ||
| And, you know, I still got Chris Hayes and Joy Ann Reid just chatting, doing their chat shows. | ||
| Jill Kelly, walk us through your latest update on 6th January, particularly these political prisoners. | ||
| Thanks for having me on, Steve. | ||
| Yes, so it's interesting. | ||
| Someone noted to me yesterday that Joe Biden didn't even bring up January 6th in his address the other night. | ||
| And so it seems like maybe at least optically, the Democrats are trying to distance themselves from this issue, but at the same time, still pursue thousands of Americans, including the former president, with their lawfare. | ||
| And so we saw this week two big developments. | ||
| They finally I've got a seditious conspiracy plea deal yesterday, late yesterday, from Joshua James, who was indicted in the Oathkeeper Seditious Conspiracy co-conspirator indictment with Stuart Rhodes. | ||
| He pleaded yesterday to seditious conspiracy. | ||
| I cannot believe any lawyer would advise any person to do that, but unfortunately he did. | ||
| And now we have news yesterday and today that the January 6th Committee now is putting together this big legal brief That they're going to go after Donald Trump. | ||
| They have all this proof of media articles that says that Donald Trump was in on this grand conspiracy and obstruction of an official proceeding. | ||
| So they're sort of moving forward that way. | ||
| But to your point, where are the hearings? | ||
| I mean, they've really only held one public hearing with witnesses, and that was last July. | ||
| So I think they're just mostly trying to do all of this behind the scenes, get out little details, leak information here and there, get the headlines that they want. | ||
| It's not, it's not polling. | ||
| The polling is through the bottom. | ||
| People want to know about, people want to know about inflation, want to know about the economy, they want to know about the invasion of the southern border. | ||
| Why are we getting into this war in Ukraine? | ||
| People have purpose in their life and they want to know what it's doing. | ||
| 6th January is not polling, that's why all of a sudden it's disappeared. | ||
| Short break, we're going to get back to one of the tragic, hang on, we're going to get back with a tragic situation with one of these political prisoners next in the war room. | ||

We rejoice when there's no more let's take down the T.T.D. | |
| Day of our life we're too low. | ||
| 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. | ||
| Okay, welcome back. | ||
| We've got the great Julie Kelly, who's the top reporter over at America Greatness on everything related to 6 January. | ||
| There was a tragedy this week of a suicide of one of these prisoners. | ||
| One of these guys were under pressure for this. | ||
| Can you take a couple minutes and tell us exactly what happened? | ||
| So it's really a tragic and infuriating story. | ||
| Matthew Perna, 37 years old, from Pennsylvania. | ||
| He was not in jail, but he might as well have been. | ||
| Because he was basically a prisoner in his own home, charged for his minor involvement in January 6th, walked into an open door, carried no weapon, didn't assault anyone, attack anyone, stayed in the rope lines, according to his family, took photos, left about 20 minutes later. | ||
| From that point forward, his life was completely destroyed. | ||
| He was tormented relentlessly by not just this Justice Department, But the media, both national and local newspaper, that hounded this man without any sense of remorse. | ||
| And he was charged and finally in an effort, like so many are doing, to try to go on with their lives. | ||
| They've lost their jobs, family members, relatives, co-workers, loved ones, marriages have broken up. | ||
| He finally was going to plead guilty to his four, the obstruction charge, and three minor misdemeanors. | ||
| DOJ came back and informed his attorney But they were going to throw the book at Matthew Perna, and instead of going to jail for a few months, he would be going to jail for years. | ||
| They were going to seek sentencing enhancements that could have put him in jail for 71 months. | ||
| That, according to his defense attorney, who I spoke with over the weekend, put him over the edge. | ||
| He hanged himself in his garage last Friday night, leaving behind his heartbroken, devastated family and a Justice Department that still refuses to comment on what happened to him. | ||
| So just real quickly, the charges were going to be extended to what? | ||
| Four years in prison? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| So he was going to plead guilty to the obstruction, felony obstruction of an official proceeding, which is now the charge they're going to try to go after Donald Trump with. | ||
| Three minor misdemeanors, three trespassing misdemeanors. | ||
| So he was going to plead guilty to those, hoping he would get just a few months in jail, be able to go on with his life. | ||
| The top prosecutor, Matthew Graves, of the U.S. | ||
| D.C. | ||
| Attorney's Office, who's handling all these cases, went back to his defense attorney and said, no, we're going to seek an eight-level sentencing enhancement. | ||
| This is all by federal guidelines, which could have put Matthew in jail for up to between 57 and 71 months. | ||
| Now, that is obviously what led him then to commit suicide. | ||
| He, like so many defendants, are pleading guilty. | ||
| Because they don't want to go before this highly biased jury pool in Washington, D.C. | ||
| We're seeing the problems with that already this week with the first trial of Guy Refit, the first public trial. | ||
| These people are trapped in a soulless, cruel judicial and legal system in Washington, D.C. | ||
| And now these people have blood on their hands. | ||
| This is actually the second suicide of a January 6th defendant. | ||

Yet no one has expressed any remorse or regret, taken a step back, Julie, Kelly, how do people follow you on American Greatness and your social media? | |
| Because you're the top person on top of this. | ||
| Darren B is doing a great job, but you're kind of the, you're the associated press on this story. | ||
| How do people follow you? | ||
| Well, my book is out on January 6th. | ||
| You can find that on Amazon and Barnes & Noble. | ||
| My work is at amgreatness.com. | ||
| I'm on Getter, Julie underscore Kelly, and also at Twitter, Julie underscore Kelly, too. | ||
| Julie, thank you very much for coming on. | ||
| I appreciate that. | ||
| We'll have to have you back when I go into more detail about this suicide. | ||
| Yes, thank you. | ||
| Very disturbing. | ||
| The great Julie Kelly. | ||
| Okay, I want to bring in now the co-founders of Moms for Liberty. | ||
| This group is... I've got the sign on the back that one of the great audience members sent me. | ||
| These people do hard things. | ||
| They're the ones that put their shoulder to the wheel to get things done. | ||
| We've had a number of their regional people on throughout the year. | ||
| I want to introduce Tiffany Justice. | ||
| And Tina Deskovitz. | ||
| Guys, thank you very much for coming on today. | ||
| What's the latest on Moms4Liberty? | ||
| Hi, Steve. | ||
| Thanks for having us on. | ||
| Moms4Liberty understands that we're in a battle. | ||
| We're in a war. | ||
| We're in a culture war for our family. | ||
| And we understand that the last line of defense in this battle really is the family. | ||
| It's the family unit, the family structure, and a parent's right to direct the upbringing, education, and medical care of their children. | ||
| And so we formed Moms for Liberty. | ||
| We're both former school board members a little over a year ago and we're organizing in chapters around the country and we're having remarkable, we're making remarkable, remarkable progress. | ||
| Why are they, why has the left and actually the government and the school boards, why have they focused on the family? | ||
| Why are they focused on the family and why are they bringing this culture war to America and to the American family? | ||
| Do you guys have any idea about that? | ||
| Yeah, I mean, I think what we've seen during COVID was that all of America got a peek behind the education curtain. | ||
| They got to see what their kids were learning or not learning, right? | ||
| And they became very concerned. | ||
| They also became very concerned with the fact that two-thirds of the kids in this country are not reading proficiently when they're graduating from high school. | ||
| So I think that the public education system has continually pushed parents out of the process of deciding what should be taught in schools, how things should be taught, whether or not we should be a part of it. | ||
| And the truth is, Steve, I think it's all an excuse for educational failure. | ||
| They don't want to own the harms that are happening and they don't want to make the changes that they need to. | ||
| What we really saw as school board members was the unions have an undue influence on our children's education. | ||
| And so Moms for Liberty was created to give parents a voice and a seat at the table. | ||
| And if they don't want to give us a seat, we're going to bring our own. | ||
| That's what I'd like. | ||
| I want to ask you about this concept you just ran by because we'd like to get nomenclature right here so people can start thinking about things. | ||
| You mentioned this concept called parental rights. | ||
| What do you mean by that? | ||
| I mean that the parent has the fundamental right to direct the upbringing of their children. | ||
| The government does not give you that right and they cannot take it away. | ||
| And I feel like the American government has forgotten that these are our children. | ||
| We have the fundamental right to direct their education, their medical care, their upbringing, their moral and religious character training. | ||
| All of those things lie with the parent to direct. | ||
| And the schools, if they want to be successful, need to embrace the parents, Steve, because the truth is that parents are the number one driver of student success. | ||
| They should be rolling out the red carpet for us instead of blocking us at every turn. | ||
| I said back in May of 2021 that the beginning of the turnaround of this country in the first 100 days of the Biden regime, that the turnaround of this country was going to be through the school boards and the moms. | ||
| CRT, you know, social emotional learning, the mask mandates, the vaccine mandates. | ||
| We've had some tremendous wins and been lots of videos and people got all worked up and Glenn Young can one and everybody's feeling good. | ||
| But this is a daily struggle. | ||
| So I want to make sure everybody in the audience knows that this is a fight that's going to continue every day. | ||
| This is there's the victory. | ||
| Here's a we're at the very beginning of this. | ||
| And I want you to walk through how Moms for Liberty is structured so that people can participate. | ||
| And what is the long game here to make sure? | ||
| Because you're not going to wave a magic wand. | ||
| And there's no one politician, even a Glenn Youngkin. | ||
| There's no one event of a politician we've done. | ||
| This is trench warfare, school by school, school board by school board, what I say, village by village. | ||
| Walk us through how Moms for Liberty plays into that. | ||
| We appreciate you so much acknowledging that. | ||
| We've known that from day one. | ||
| Like I said, we served on school boards. | ||
| We saw how hard it was to engage the community, to really come in and do the textbook reviews and do the work that needs to be done to make sure our school districts are not indoctrinating our children. | ||
| So we have set this organization up with the goal, with the long-term game plan in mind. | ||
| We are very well structured. | ||
| We're organized by county. | ||
| So we launched chapters in counties. | ||
| We're up to 174 chapters in 33 states. | ||
| We have an application at momsforliberty.org. | ||
| You can go on, start a chapter, and start the process. | ||
| We will interview you, qualify you, and get your chapter up and running in your community. | ||
| And the jobs of those chapters is to be watchdogs of your school board. | ||
| We have our chapters having monthly chapter meetings where they dig into school board agendas to their budgets. | ||
| What are they spending money on to do curriculum reviews? | ||
| Our chapter in Tennessee, Williamson, Tennessee put in over a thousand hours reviewing the English language arts curriculum. | ||
| They are doing the work that needs to be done and the goal is to have a Moms for Liberty chapter in every county in America. | ||
| So 3,000 counties, 13,000 plus school districts in a Moms for Liberty shirt at that school board meeting from now till the end of time. | ||
| I want to go back to you're the watchdog for the school boards. | ||
| Do you also help people to get organized to actually run? | ||
| Because what I'd like to see is actually through the democratic process is taking over the school boards with concerned parents. | ||
| Do you have a possibility? | ||
| Is there a way to do that also? | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| So we took on 56 school board seats just in the fall, and we'd only been around for about nine months in 2021. | ||
| We are working now to unroll that nationwide. | ||
| We have partnered with different organizations like the Leadership Institute to provide school board candidate training. | ||
| Our chapters will be endorsing candidates in each of their school districts and we will be supporting them nationally. | ||
| We have a plan to take back school boards. | ||
| Parents need to be in that seat on the school board. | ||
| Gone are the days where the union elects their own to the school board and you have the union negotiating with the new union on things that affect children and families. | ||
| I want to also say for our audience, for people that maybe the school, this is about your grandchildren. | ||
| I want also, just because you don't have kids in school now, it's the bedrock for the community. | ||
| And so some of our older audience also, I want to see you guys join up and at least learn more about Moms4Liberty and help out here. | ||
| This is where everybody's got to put their shoulder to the wheel. | ||
| So walk through, how do people contact you and then what's the next step for finding out more information and then start the chapter? | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| So I want to send everybody to our website, Steve, so they can check out our merchandise. | ||
| One of the coolest things I've heard about the growth of Moms4Liberty is that a lot of our chapter chairs will say, we have seen someone in your shirt somewhere. | ||
| And I went up and I spoke to them and they were my people. | ||
| And so this is the great organic growth we have seen. | ||
| So go buy a t-shirt, wear it, stand with us, be a patriot, fight for your community. | ||
| I completely agree with you. | ||
| This is all about making the change in your own backyard. | ||
| You can go to momsforliberty.org. | ||
| You can see if there's a chapter there near you. | ||
| You can click to start one. | ||
| You can follow us on Twitter, on Instagram, on Facebook. | ||
| Tina, what am I leaving out? | ||
| We have a YouTube channel you can subscribe to, a MeWe channel that we've set up, and so we're entering into all of the platforms. | ||
| Okay, so we're going to push that all out. | ||
| Right now, there's 3,000 counties, roughly, in the United States. | ||
| We've got 174 chapters, or 174 counties, I take it, that you have chapters in, so we need to grow that. | ||
| And this is like the precinct strategy. | ||
| Remember, we give you the big picture on geopolitics and global capital markets and all that, but the core of this Is to take that knowledge and to use it in a hyperlocal effort. | ||
| Because at a hyperlocal effort, we cannot be defeated. | ||
| It is impossible. | ||
| It is mathematically impossible for them to defeat us. | ||
| Because we have two-thirds of 70 to 75 percent of the people on our side. | ||
| This is evident, and you're seeing this now in South Texas in these elections. | ||
| This is every school board. | ||
| We should dominate every school board, but you've got to go to work. | ||
| Once again, go to the Moms4Liberty. | ||
| Give us your website again, and we're going to get it into all our platforms and push this. | ||
| What's the primary website they go to? | ||
| Moms4Liberty.org. | ||
| Tiffany Justice, Tina Deskovitz, thank you so much. | ||
| Honored to have you on here. | ||
| Look forward to having you back with more success stories. | ||
| Yes, sir. | ||
| Thank you very much. | ||
| Thanks. | ||
| So plan on Monster Liberty getting attacked personally very quickly. | ||
| They're going after good old Dan Schultz. | ||
| ProPublica has got something that he's some radical, you know, West Point grad. | ||
| Good old Dan Schultz. | ||
| We're going to have Dan on tonight. | ||
| We couldn't put in tomorrow. | ||
| Dan Schultz is going to be on tonight. | ||
| The left-wing media is out to destroy Dan Schultz because Precinct Strategy is working. | ||
| The school board's working. | ||
| We're grinding. | ||
| We told you, put your shoulder to the wheel. | ||
| We're going to get this thing sorted out. | ||

OK? | |
| And we're going to get it sorted out. | ||
| We'll be back at five o'clock. | ||
| Royce White is going to take on... Oh, no, no. | ||

| We got the D-block. | ||
| I got my favorite block coming up. | ||

| Thank you. | ||
| D-block coming up. | ||
| Royce White's tonight, though. | ||
| The great Royce White taking on Tlaib. | ||

We will fight till they're all gone We rejoice when there's no more Let's take down... | |
| 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. | ||
| The truckers are on the roll. | ||
| We're going to have more truckers tonight as this convoy starts to take over the media process. | ||
| We'll walk you through all that tonight. | ||
| We're going to have Royce White on. | ||
| He's a populist running up in Minneapolis against Omar. | ||
| He's going to have a response to Tlaib's Left-wing attacks on Joe Biden, her rebuttal of Joe Biden. | ||
| So we have Royce White on tonight. | ||
| We're going to have Joe Allen is back from assignment. | ||
| Joe is on assignment. | ||
| He's now deep into everything that's going on here, particularly in the cyber war and the artificial intelligence part of this. | ||
| Joe Allen will be joining us tonight. | ||
| Actually, if we can work it out, Joe Allen will be in studio. | ||
| With us tonight, a more assessment of what's going on in Texas and with the voting and all the voting patterns we're seeing coming out of there, so it's very important. | ||
| Also, Dan Schultz from Precinct Strength is being attacked by ProPublica and the left-wing media. | ||
| We're going to have him on. | ||
| Tons to go through, so tonight's show is going to be very special, and we're going to wrap it around the convoy. | ||
| Look, we try to, and I think, because I not just live this, but I'm very obviously interested in some of these topics, I think that we do as good a job as anybody in the world, and I think probably better in the world, of taking complicated capital markets, financial and economic, and not dumbing it down, but making it accessible to people so they understand their own lives and how it fits into geopolitically what's going on in the world. | ||
| One of the things, though, that's the most important, as we say this, this is obviously a spiritual war. | ||
| And you need to not just to pray and to pray for what's going on in the world, and particularly the victims of this war throughout the world, but also for guidance. | ||
| And so that's where we're very honored. | ||
| And we had Lee Greenwood on yesterday. | ||
| I want to thank Lee Greenwood so much. | ||
| That story about Lee trying to put this Bible out. | ||
| God bless the USA Bible. | ||
| So go to GodBlessTheUSABible.com and just check it out for yourself. | ||
| King James Version of the Bible plus our founding documents. | ||
| The divinely inspired founding documents of this great constitutional republic. | ||
| Lee put it together. | ||
| He's doing this himself with a team of marketing experts in, I think, in Nashville. | ||
| And they're doing an amazing job, but I want everybody to go check it out to see if it's if it makes sense for you and your family to have it like an heirloom like this or something you can use every day because this is a spiritual war. | ||
| We're now in Lent and we want to do some special stuff for Lent. | ||
| We're going to be having in the run-up to Good Friday many many different We had Father Pavone on yesterday. | ||
| We have many, many people on. | ||
| Plus, we're going to talk about Passover. | ||
| We had, you know, the beginning of talking about Passover in the new book that's been put out. | ||
| But I want to talk about Sophia Institute. | ||
| I want to bring in Eric Sammons. | ||
| He's editor of one of my favorite magazines, Crisis Magazine. | ||
| Yeah, sure. | ||
| this about Lent. We just started the Fasting in Abstinence. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yesterday was Ash Wednesday. Sophia Institute has put out a new book that can help you get through all this. Eric, you want to come in and tell us about that? Yeah, sure. It's called the Lenten Cookbook and it's by Scott Hahn and David Geiser. And it might sound a little bit silly to talk about a Lenten Cookbook because we're talking about fasting, but the point of this cookbook is actually to help us with our I think that for most people, most Christians have forgotten about fasting. | |
| It's not something that's promoted anymore. | ||
| It's not something that's thought about too much, but we really do need to return to that. | ||
| If you look in the Old Testament, for example, when the people of God were not following God, when they had gone astray from Him, The prophets and the leaders said, we have to fast, we have to pray, we have to declare a fast, because that's the only way we're going to return to Him. | ||
| And I think in today's world, it's obvious that we've forgotten fasting, because look what's everything that's happening. | ||
| We need to return to that, but we've forgotten how to fast. | ||
| And so something like the Lenten Cookbook actually helps us to remember how to, because the first 50 pages of it is Scott Hahn talking, who's a biblical theologian, talking about why we fast, what fasting means, And then there's actually recipes for how you can cook meals when you do eat so that your fasting can actually be more productive and not, and you don't crash and burn, which I think a lot of us have experienced that. | ||
| We try to fast, we eat McDonald's, we eat all these high-carb, sugary things, and then we try to fast and we just crash and burn. | ||
| What this does, it allows us to really have a fasting lifestyle more than anything. | ||
| Tell me about the fasting lifestyle. | ||
| Why is the book essential to that? | ||
| Walk through what that lifestyle would be. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I think what happens for a lot of us is that we eat regular diets, American diets, for example, or just Western diets that are very high in sugar, very high in carbs, stuff like that. | |
| And then Ash Wednesday comes around like, okay, I need to fast. | ||
| and it becomes something where we get hangry, we just get very upset, we're unable to keep our peace. | ||
| But the whole thing, if you look at the saints, and our Lord, and other people, when they fast, they don't lose their peace, because they have a lifestyle that allows for fasting to enter in. | ||
| What that means is that we eat certain things during the times that we are eating that aren't quite so sugary, high carb, things like that. | ||
| They're more simple meals. | ||
| And so then our body, when it comes time to fast, it's not that it's easy. | ||
| Fasting shouldn't be easy. | ||
| But what it does is it makes it so that we can segue into that fast a lot better. | ||
| So that, for example, Ash Wednesday is a day that Catholics, for example, are supposed to fast, and many Christians, other Christians follow that as well. | ||
| Well, you can actually do it, and you're hungry, but you're hungry in such a way that it makes you concentrate more on prayer, concentrate more on God, rather than a complete obsession with, oh my gosh, I'm dying here, I need to eat something right now. | ||
| So that's what I mean by a fasting lifestyle, where you can integrate fast into your regular life. | ||
| It's not something that is completely outside of your experience. | ||
| So how, and once again, how do people get the book? | ||
|
unidentified
|
So you just go to, it's from Sophia Institute Press and sophiainstitute.com, sophiainstitute.com is the best place to go. | |
| It's on the homepage, you can search on there and you can buy it and it really is a great deal and it's not too late to get into Lent Just Started because you can really have a whole diet throughout Lent that allows you to fast as well. | ||
| We've got a long way to go, so trust me, it's not too late to get it. | ||
| Real quickly, give me a minute on Sophia and Crisis Magazine. | ||
