That last image you saw, you're in the war room.
It is Monday, 7 March, Year of Our Lord 2022.
That last image you saw is this family in the Ukraine that was hit by a mortar or rocket fire today that was shown on CNN multiple times.
And they didn't edit out the profanity.
It wasn't somebody trying to be cute.
The photographer was absolutely shocked when it hit.
Look, the war in the Ukraine gets bloodier and nastier moment by moment.
And the question gets to be, what is actually going on here?
Because the mainstream media, I don't think, is being straightforward on exactly what the facts are and what is happening.
And right now, the people in Ukraine, particularly lives, Are being, I think, thrown away without people actually asking and starting to walk through exactly what's going on.
Again, Ben Harnwell from Rome.
Ben, I want to start off once again, go back to this morning, which hasn't gotten a lot of coverage.
New York Post made it the lead story.
So we know it's legitimate.
The Post headed up and had an analysis of it.
Walk us through what Russia said their war aims were and what they could come to the table on and agree to, because I've had a lot of people this afternoon say it looks like they're looking for an off-ramp, although the mainstream media hasn't gotten all over it.
Walk through specifically what are the four points they've been making about how they would dial this thing down.
ben harnwell
Good afternoon, Steve.
So the four points are that Ukraine ceases military action.
That's the first point.
The second point, that it actually amends its own constitution to enshrine the principle of neutrality with regards to joining other blocs.
And that's obviously NATO and the European Union.
That the Ukraine acknowledges Crimea as Russian territory.
And finally, that Ukraine recognizes the separatist republics of Donetsk and Lugansk as independent territories.
And those are the four points that Russia has asked for.
And according to reports that are emerging, the obstacle on the Ukrainian side seems to be The territorial integrity of Ukraine, which is presumably the question over the recognition of the new status of Donetsk and Lugansk.
steve bannon
That's what we call on Wall Street, the bid and the ask.
I got that right now.
They're making a big deal about this, about the ceasefire in the corridors of safe passage corridors.
That's what they're all over nonstop.
But if that's the offer in the bids back is that, hey, what separates that is the territorial integrity of eastern Ukraine, Russian speaking eastern Ukraine.
And Crimea, which already had a plebiscite a couple of years ago.
Remember, Crimea went down right after the Sochi Olympics.
Not the ones in Korea, I think the ones in 2014, right?
In 2014, Crimea went down and had a plebiscite, which I think 90% of the people voted on.
I'm not saying the Russians didn't have their thumb on the scale there.
But it seems to me that was kind of sordid.
My point is that we're in offensive economic war.
People are running around.
You're seeing all this crazy talk in Washington, D.C., and at least of what you see in the mainstream media where it's even reported, that's the bid and the ask.
I mean, Zelensky comes out every day and says the West are cowards.
The West has not given us enough.
The West is promising and committed.
The bid and the ask looks like it's about the territorial integrity of these eastern Russian speaking provinces and Crimea.
I'm just saying.
That's the bid and the answer.
I think the people in the United States would like to have the sovereignty of the Rio Grande Valley in South Texas as guaranteed, right?
For the invasion that's going down there.
And this is something I think that, you know, people got to stop being fanboys, particularly Republicans like Marco Rubio and Steve Daines in Montana.
That's embarrassing.
to put up the thing during when they ask you not to first off for security reasons but then you put it up because you're trying to draft off his popularity that that that doesn't make you a leader that makes you a schmendrick right it's It's obscene.
And you see this loose talk on Fox and this loose talk all about war and going, we're going to give them ammo and we're, you know, we're going to send in a MiG-29 jets and we're already in economic war, trying to take down the Central Bank and we're doing all, you know, offensive economic war.
And you look, they put out a proposal and now you've heard some sort of response that they're territorial integrity.
Hey, I got it.
I'm not saying give them up, but if that's what we're talking about, we're talking about the territorial integrity of some eastern provinces, Russian-speaking eastern provinces in Crimea.
We're going to start World War III.
We're going to drive these guys into the arms of the Chinese.
We're going to de-dollarize the world's economy.
I just want to make sure the American people understand What's actually going on here?
Ben, talk to me about also about the EU.
Talk to me about the EU and these offers that were made in the processing, because this is kind of what started it.
What's happening in these other districts?
ben harnwell
Yeah, well, the European Union has said that it is now going to consider the application status of Three countries.
One of them is Ukraine.
The other two are Georgia and Moldova.
Georgia, in fact, doesn't share a border yet with any EU member country.
The nearest it can have would be the longstanding EU applicant, which is Turkey.
And I think Turkey has been kicking around since the 80s trying to get into the European Union.
But I think what we can see here is a very astute maneuvering on behalf of President Zelensky, who is leveraging his clearly worldwide popular appeal for maximum effect on behalf of his country, because I can't see under normal circumstances
The President of Ukraine receiving a standing ovation, addressing by Zoom the European Parliament, which he did last week.
There's obviously a huge amount of goodwill towards him there.
And I think he's now looking, I've probably wanted to answer the question which you asked just a few moments or so ago.
I think he's looking to maximise the position, the standing that he's in at the moment with regards to the European Union.
No.
steve bannon
But here's my point.
The European Union is the one that's been forcing this.
The European Union was all in back of the colour revolution throughout the popularly elected, the democratically elected Hey, the guy was close to Putin, I'm not saying he's not, but they got elected in a, and it may have been a little crooked, but he was the democratically elected head of the country, of Ukraine, and he was overthrown by a color revolution that was done by the people in the EU and others in the United States government, at the time, that wanted to take this thing down.
That was, there was a revolution in the streets.
They overthrew, they talk about democracy.
Hey, you may not like the way the vote goes.
I'm not that crazy about the way that Joe, the illegitimate Joe Biden is there.
But what we're doing is working every day to take him out the ballot box.
Obviously to get popular opinion, to kill his administration in the crib, which we've done a pretty good job.
But, you know, you gotta, they don't like a government, they overthrow it with a color revolution.
Now, my point is they're forcing it.
Just look at what the facts are.
And you see the bid and the ask on the deal.
Right?
On the deal.
And they're saying, oh, we're our territorial integrity.
OK, I got that.
Then you got to negotiate that out.
But is that what's going to send the is that in the vital national security interest of the United States of America?
Are we going to send our sons and daughters over there?
We're going to put up a no fly zone.
Are we going to trigger the third world war?
We're already we're already an economic offensive war right now.
We're taking down the central bank.
The stock market over there hasn't hasn't come up.
You see these?
I got to tell you.
You see, Hong Kong today, at the end of trading, has given up 15 years of value.
They're back to where they traded 15 years ago.
Wheat is on a limit up.
A limit up, you can't trade it anymore.
At least for the day, tomorrow morning you're going to start.
People were talking earlier today, listening to some of these shows, I think Buck Sexton and Travis Clay, they're talking about $9 gasoline.
$9 in the United States.
We're going to start, you're telling me, we're going to start, we're already started, we're already in offensive economic war right now with trying to take down the Russian Central Bank and destroy the ruble.
We're going to do this because of a couple of Russian-speaking provinces in eastern Ukraine and Crimea.
And look, maybe Putin and these guys retrade them.
They're KGB.
You can't trust them as far as you can throw them, but at least that's the stated bid and the ask.
Right?
And the ask.
Doesn't seem that far apart.
Of course, on MSNBC, they're going to be sitting there going, no, the territorial integrity and sovereignty and nationalism of Ukraine is everything.
They ain't saying that about the United States.
We've got an invasion on the southern border.
They're not that worried about the sovereignty down there.
They're not worried about the territorial integrity of the Rio Grande Valley.
That's where the Hispanic working class is voting for MAGA.
They get it.
What's the media over there?
What's the Times of London, the Guardian, all the big papers in Paris, in Berlin?
Are they even talking about this offer and counter-offer?
It's like the 20th story that they focus on.
ben harnwell
It's buried away on one of the back pages.
Steve, in The Times, they did not do it with criticizing them.
They did.
They did pick up the Reuters article.
I mean, you've got to run looking at this.
It's important to remember that all sides are posturing and they're posturing like crazy right now.
Russia, the European Union, Ukraine itself.
I can tell you, if you give me 30 seconds, why I think that, as you're saying, this is probably more to do with the bid than the ask, as it were, with regards to imminent Ukrainian accession.
Into the European Union.
Because someone has to pay for it, right?
That's the point, right?
These countries aren't rich.
They're going to be net recipients for a long time.
of European taxpayers' money.
And specifically, of course, when I say European taxpayers, I mean Germany, which has always been by far and away the largest net contributor to the EU budget.
I think on the most recent figures I can get hold of, its net contribution is $17 billion to the EU.
steve bannon
Hey, hold on.
I don't care who pays for it.
I don't care.
The Germans don't pay for anything else.
They're deadbeats as far as NATO goes.
I care about you sticking it up in Russia's face, but it's going to continue these wars going on in the region.
That's my problem.
You're going to continue these wars.
They've already said they don't want the EU up in their grill.
In the EU, that's my point today.
You've got this deal that they're not really pursuing.
You're doing everything else about warfare.
The poor Ukrainian people are getting bombed relentlessly.
That's where we start every show with this.
New York Times has got a dead family on the cover, not even covered up, in living color to send a message.
And on MSNBC, it's all night long, the women and children.
Hey, and they're getting bombed.
And now the EU's processing the applications for Georgia.
Was it Moldova and the Ukraine?
Hey, I think that's what lights a tinderbox.
Ben, quickly, what's your social media?
How did they find you on Getter?
Because you're putting up great stuff.
ben harnwell
Thanks, Steve.
Yeah, I'm exclusively on Getter in terms of social media.
And it's simply my surname, Harnwell, at Harnwell.
And I'll be pushing up my analysis of these events.
Over that getter.
unidentified
Okay.
steve bannon
We'll see you tomorrow morning.
Thanks for staying up in Rome.
Ben Harnaw, Boris next.
We're going to ask Boris his opinions of all this.
Also got some details on Barr, Arizona.
All of it next in the War Room.
unidentified
War Room.
Pandemic.
We rejoice when there is no more, let's take down the TTP!
Day of our life for two!
War Room, Pandemic, with Stephen K. Bannon The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide.
War Room.
Pandemic.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
steve bannon
Okay, MyPillow.com, promo code WARROOM.
You need a great night's sleep, and the reason is you've got to man the ramparts.
We're getting into the heart of it right now, right?
You've got the Third World War exploding, you're trying to take back your country.
It can't be more grinding or nerve-wracking.
So that's why you need, and not a good night's sleep, you need a great night's sleep.
MyPillow.com.
Use your agency action action action go there.
There's sales all over the place Okay, and especially these overstock items and the Giza dream sheets get on top of it today Pardon the pun.
Okay, let's go to Boris Boris I gotta ask because I didn't want to bring you in for the for this because you got so much domestic stuff to get to you about but Since you know the area, and you're a pretty good geopolitician.
You got the bid, and you got the ask, and it's now about the territorial integrity of, quote-unquote, Ukraine, right?
And you've got these Eastern Russian-speaking provinces that have been fighting over forever, and you got Crimea, which I thought they kind of took it back and did this plebiscite back in 2014.
Didn't say they did it nicely.
They wasted the Sochi Olympics, which they put on right across, what, the Caspian Sea or the Black Sea?
Then they went and took it.
The Great Port of Sebastopol, right there.
The British and the Russians are fighting over forever.
What are your thoughts on this?
I mean, why are we not focused on that instead of the corridor, the safe corridor and the ceasefire?
Why not have a ceasefire and get in there and let them negotiate now?
And do you agree with me that what they're talking about, if this is true and this is what's being reported, that's not in the vital national security interest of the United States.
That's two regional guys fighting about territory.
boris epshteyn
Steve, you're right about the port of Sevastopol.
That port is very important in my family's history.
My grandfather helped liberate it from the Nazis during World War II, including storming the Mount Sapor, where the Nazis were on top of the mountain, and my grandfather and his army helped liberate it.
So that is absolutely a...
steve bannon
A historic battle, brother.
That was a tough one.
boris epshteyn
A historic battle.
steve bannon
No doubt about it.
unidentified
Yes.
boris epshteyn
Yes.
That's not for the weak-hearted, that's for sure.
In terms of what's happening right now, it appears to be very basic, old-school tradesmanship, right?
Where they're bartering about how this is going to turn out.
I did say, I'm proud, you know, we signal that noise for the audience.
I said last week that I do believe that the two sides are going to end up In a negotiation, that's where they're in now.
Meanwhile, of course, the military action continues in Ukraine.
Terrible to see the images of the civilians, no doubt about it.
Full stop.
It is interesting to see, though, that how uninterested the mainstream media and Europe are in the actual negotiations and what's being discussed in terms of putting an end to the conflict.
There's much more interest in the war porn Then there is interest in a resolution.
Why?
Because the war porn is what allows Joe Biden to get the American people's imagination and get their focus away from his total fecklessness on the southern border, on Afghanistan, the really unparalleled high gas prices.
The liberals, both here and across the ocean are much more interested in the war porn than a resolution.
Because if you're Joe Biden, if you're Jen Psaki, is there really any benefit to you if this conflict comes to a quick end in Ukraine?
Because then what do you have to go back to talking about?
You go back to talking about the 100 seats, 100 years we're going to have, which is clear.
You go back to the failure.
steve bannon
But hang on.
On the wag the dog, I got it.
But the economy was so bad.
They had this thing spiraling out of control to a recession.
Now you're talking about $9 gas.
It's already $7.55.
Somebody sent me a picture from L.A.
You're going to have $9 gasoline.
You've got wheat.
They've limited up on trading on wheat today.
I'm seeing guys sending out sophisticated people saying the supply chain is about to collapse.
You've got so many domestic economic problems.
The wag the dog is, and they try to wag the market.
Now it's spinning out of control.
Why wouldn't they try to get a resolution of the centerpiece of this and then work together to solve the problems with the economy?
boris epshteyn
Well, part of it, Steve, is that to resolve a conflict, especially a conflict that goes back a long time, really in a lot of effect, it goes back centuries of years, you need people, you need skilled I wouldn't hire Anthony Blinken to negotiate an eminent domain dispute in rural Arkansas.
Anthony Blinken, I wouldn't hire Anthony Blinken to negotiate an eminent domain dispute in rural Arkansas, okay?
Anthony Blinken is a pathetic excuse for a diplomat.
And then you've got Jake Sullivan, the pencil neck who has absolutely no idea about what's going on anywhere.
Shocking, he still has a job, especially after the revelations in the Durham Report, because Sullivan was in charge of the spying the Clinton campaign undertook.
So the leader, and of course Joe Biden, who's been wrong on every single international relations issue, according to Democrat, to Bob Gates, who was the Secretary of Defense for Obama, he said at that time that Biden's been wrong on every single foreign relations issue of the last 40 years.
Now it's been 50 years.
So, as America, if you don't have people who are skilled in negotiating, and Donald Trump didn't come into being president with a lot of history of international negotiations on the political front, but he did on the business front, both domestically and all over the world.
Donald Trump came into it, and he called it as is.
Hey, you want to be our friend, NATO?
Great, be our friend.
Pay the 2%.
Take care of your responsibilities.
What do you have now?
Boris Johnson saying to Joe Biden, hey, I got an idea.
Go F yourself, OK?
We're not taking the Ukrainian refugees, and we're not cutting off Russian oil, because we don't want to have 10-pound gasoline in London.
steve bannon
He don't want 10-pound gasoline, and he's gone.
And Macron's not doing it because Macron's got an election coming up.
None of the European leaders are stepping up to the plate.
The Germans said no off the bat.
They're so united.
Cut the oligarchs off.
We're going to get more into this tomorrow.
We've got a lot of economic analysis coming out about how your life's about to be a lot worse.
boris epshteyn
Just to finish this, Steve, real quick.
I absolutely hope That what happens now is that there's a bid and ask, as you said, and the two sides, Russia and Ukraine, sit down, hammer it out, and we all move forward and move on, because there does seem to be a plausible resolution.
But what it appears to me is that the outside actors, again, are impacting this for the negative, including the Biden administration.
They're not bringing calm.
They're not bringing resolution.
They are ratcheting up the war porn and actually pushing Ukraine to stand further away from a potential resolution.
That's what it appears to me.
steve bannon
And if it wasn't lives of women and children in these cities being lost, hey, it's just going to continue on.
So look, if the guy, if the theory is, hey, it didn't work out, he overplayed his hand, he's looking for an off-ramp, you know, maybe you negotiate.
Maybe you get, at least you should engage in this and find out what the real issues are and how they can be solved.
boris epshteyn
Because what's the other end doing?
steve bannon
This is Sarajevo in 1914.
You got the Guns of August.
The Law of Unintended Consequences.
Anything can happen.
Okay, quickly.
Arizona.
What's the latest on there?
We're going to deal with that in our new show that's coming up at 6 o'clock.
War Room Battleground.
We're also going to have a report from Neil McCabe who's been writing all the analysis of this.
We're going to have Schultz on here.
This is a bombshell.
Tell us what happened.
boris epshteyn
Steve, first of all, congratulations on the new show.
Such a major, as I tweeted and I posted on all my social media yesterday, including Getter, such a major development.
Major development for MAGA, for you to have another hour and to be focusing on the battlegrounds as we drive toward those 100 seats, 100 years.
So, this isn't just, you know, oh, great for Steve Bannon to have another hour.
This is another hour to go in-depth On what we have to do as MAGA to win back the House in a huge way and control it for 100 years and win the Senate as we drive toward a win for President Trump in 2024.
steve bannon
And down ticket.
That's where the precinct strategy comes in.
Down ticket too.
boris epshteyn
Down to the judges.
We had those big wins in Pennsylvania on the judges.
The wins in New Jersey, where Ed Durr took out the longest state senator in New Jersey, spending $100.
So this hour is going to be vital, and I'm so honored to be a part of that as you grow.
Steve, in Arizona, we talked about it this morning, the latest development from what I understand is there are negotiations going on right now to repeal this disaster that happened last week.
Here's the question, and first, full stop, yes, a repeal has to happen now.
They cannot change the way precinct committee men, committee women are elected.
They've got to be able to represent the people, and we cannot allow the swamp to come up and grab MAGA and try to drag it down, because that's exactly what this was.
That's number one.
Number two, this all goes back to Rusty Bowers.
How could the Speaker of the House, Rusty Bowers, allow for this to happen?
The only answer has to be that this guy's an absolute rhino, and he should have no future in American Republican politics whatsoever.
steve bannon
I tell you, disgraceful.
And there's some developments today.
We're going to have Dan Schultz on here.
It ain't going to be that easy just to wish this thing.
Yeah, go ahead.
boris epshteyn
From what I understand, they're negotiating as we speak, and there's a hope.
I'm being told it's an expectation.
I will tell the posse it's a hope that this gets resolved as soon as Today, and they're wrongfully passed under emergency orders.
I mean complete banana republic type tactics.
These wrongfully passed laws are repealed as soon as today.
I'll believe it when I see it, but that is what I'm hearing from the ground from some very good sources in the last 15 minutes.
steve bannon
Something smells to high heaven there, because I don't see how they're going to get two-thirds of the vote for it, and then Ducey.
Ducey's not going to do the Trump-MAGA grassroots movement any favors.
This was an inside deal, and we're going to get to the bottom of it.
boris epshteyn
That's gross.
steve bannon
Talk to me about Bill Barr.
The Bill Barr situation this morning went viral.
Any other thoughts about Bill Barr?
boris epshteyn
The thoughts about Bill Barr is that it fits a pattern, right?
You've got Barr, you've got Bolton, you had other losers, you know, that guy from DHS who nobody even knows, Anonymous, whose name nobody even, Miles Taylor, whose name people don't care who he is.
All these swamp creatures, again, and it all ties together.
Always signal, not noise for the audience.
It all ties together.
Rusty Bowers in Arizona with this complete corrupt move on precinct committee strategy.
These swamp creatures do all they can to ingratiate themselves to MAGA and to President Trump, the leader of the MAGA movement, and then they do all they can to profit of it, to grift and stab President Trump and the MAGA movement in the back.
And Bill Barr is a perfect example of that.
It's disgusting.
And what we have to remember, Steve, as you said this morning, not only did Bill Barr refuse to investigate and prosecute the complete riots and the attacks in May and June of 2020, he also refused to do what he should have done to prevent the election from being stolen.
steve bannon
Hang on.
Take a short commercial break.
Hang on with me, Boris.
unidentified
I'm here.
Until they're all gone!
We rejoice when there's no more!
Let's take down the C.C.D.!
Day of our life!
War Room.
Pandemic.
With Stephen K. Banham.
The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide.
War Room.
Pandemic.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Banham.
steve bannon
Okay, welcome back.
You're in the War Room.
I want to go back.
We had a problem with Bill Barr, who turned the president.
Here's my problem with Barr is about the summer of 2020, when he did not shut down the anarchy, the chaos in our cities and let these great cities burn, all the damage, billions of dollars.
Virtually nobody arrested.
Nobody held in prison like the local prisoners of 6th January.
It's disgusting.
And if Barr thinks he's going to get a free shot on gold, I don't think that's going to happen.
If I was a law firm, I would not bring Bill Barr on board because it's going to be very choppy for you and your clients.
Okay?
Dig?
Boris Epstein, we've got other problems with lawyers.
You've got a whole group that's trying to... Everybody's with the MAGA movement.
Everybody's with the 3 November to get to the bottom of the stolen election.
And let me repeat this so the mainstream media can hear it.
Trump won.
Joe Biden's illegitimate.
We have 52 percent.
There was a poll the other day.
I put it up on my getter.
52 percent of white, non-college-educated males in this country think he is illegitimate.
That's still the biggest voting bloc, I think.
That is a stunning, stunning statistic.
Joe Biden's illegitimate.
Elections have consequences.
Stolen elections have catastrophic consequences.
And we're seeing it every day.
You see it every day.
But Boris, they're coming after all the lawyers that are really all the MAGA lawyers.
What's going on and what's going to be the counter-offense on this?
boris epshteyn
Well, Steve, these angry lib losers, David Brock, who had to pay off his lover to not expose his own IRS violations, which obviously are from here to Timbuktu Media Matters, pretending to be a non-profit.
Hey, Madeline Peltz, how you doing?
Sorry, we're talking about your bosses, bosses, bosses, bosses, boss in that way.
Tom Daschle, who was supposed to be a fancy member of the Obama cabinet, but oh my God, couldn't figure out how to pay his taxes.
We didn't have to go to prison like Bernie Kerik did completely wrongfully.
Dash, of course, they let off, and now he's making a bunch of money as a lobbyist.
So they've got these usual uniparty woke libs who are trying to attack those of us who are attorneys, including yours truly.
But you know what?
unidentified
Hey!
boris epshteyn
You know what, it's almost kind of flattering.
They think that, they recognize us for the power that we are.
The power, and hey, it's all about the War Room Posse, the MAGA movement under the leadership of President Trump.
We are just humble servants of the movement.
And if these liberals want to go and whine about it, sure.
And by the way, I've seen one of the complaints, you know, they're coming in hot in the stories and Axios, oh, we're going to get people disbarred.
The complaint asks the bar, the New York bar or other, other state bars to investigate the contact, investigate the conduct and see maybe there's something to do about it.
steve bannon
Don't think there's going to get free shots on gold on these lawyers.
Not going to get free shots on gold.
There's going to be blowback, specific blowback.
And all you guys at law firms that are sucking off the tit here in Washington, D.C., that day's over November 8th.
But we're going to go after the law firms that you're associated with.
The lawyers are the biggest cowards in the city, and they grind out more money than anybody.
The town's run by a bunch of corrupt lawyers.
Don't think you get free shots on goalie more.
Not going to work.
And wait until we start lighting you up, and wait until we start lighting your clients up.
And we can light them up.
You watch.
So no more free shots on goal.
You're not going to go after people and say, oh, we're going to disbar you so you can't put food on the table for your kids because you work for MAGA?
You work for these candidates that you question the illegitimate election?
Go to Wisconsin.
Go to Georgia.
Go to Arizona.
How dare you say this?
We've got Tim Rathmann, Pennsylvania, Michigan.
Only the appeals court in Pennsylvania said the votes, 2.6 million votes, were invalid, unconstitutional, illegal.
We've got Tim Rathmann on the new show today.
Talk about what's going to, some bombs, as you know, are going to be dropping next week in Wisconsin, more than the bombs have already dropped.
Boris Epstein.
So, Boris, I gotta bounce.
boris epshteyn
Here's the last thing on this thing.
The saddest part about it is that it's just such a naked, obvious grift, right?
They're just trying to rid some Democrat unhinged donors of their money, and they're like, oh, we're gonna go after all these lawyers, and let's put big names in there, and let's go attack Boris Epstein and others, and we are really gonna do a job, but then it's just a whimper in terms of the actual violence.
We will not forget who's doing this.
We are going to remember who is going to Axios and CNN and tweeting all about it.
You want to come at us?
Fine.
unidentified
But you better mess with the bull, you get the heat.
steve bannon
Come hard, baby.
Come hard.
Bring as much heat as you got.
Okay?
Because we're going to bring the same.
Particularly all these corrupt law firms and to the clients you've got there.
And don't think you can get a free ride after November 8th.
New game in town.
Boris, what's your social media?
boris epshteyn
No doubt about it.
Steve, the website, which has been so hot.
Thanks to everybody for signing up.
Boriscp.com.
Sign up right now.
Boriscp.com.
How to get her at Boriscp.
On Twitter at BorisCP, through social at Boris, and of course, the hottest on the gram, we had a major post on the news show, the new Battlegrounds show, War on Battlegrounds yesterday, on the gram, Boris underscore Epstein.
Stay strong, God bless, major info that I've gotten from the Hill tomorrow in terms of MAGA continuing its absolute takeover of the country.
Stay strong, God bless, I'll see you tomorrow.
steve bannon
Got some great data tomorrow that we're going to share.
Okay, I want to go to Dan Schultz.
Dan, Precinct Strategy, tell us what went on today out there.
This thing's got to get sorted because it stinks to high heaven.
What's happening, sir?
dan schultz
The latest I have from a couple of reporters, local reporters who were there and are there, real-time posting on Twitter, although my Twitter feed just went down, but the latest I got just a few minutes ago is that Karen Phan has announced that There won't be a vote, final vote, until Wednesday.
Tomorrow, she's going to suspend the rules in the Senate, and they're gonna, whatever comes out of the House, apparently they were debating it in the House today, they didn't take, I don't think they took a vote in the House.
So, at least not yet.
The other thing that is interesting is that this document, it's public now, this is from the, Arizona Association of Counties.
It's an internal document.
I don't know that it ever.
It never went anywhere, but it basically said the counties were lobbying the state legislature to get rid of the counties having to do all this work and spend all this money on the primary election system, which long ago, the state legislature made a public policy decision, apparently, long ago, like they have in many other states.
Let's let the political parties piggyback on the On the primary election system and run their precinct committeeman elections.
Well, they were complaining about how that costs so much money.
98% of the time, precinct elections are not contested, so they don't even print up a ballot.
The other good news in this document is that we are at, here statewide, 63.5% of our precinct committeeman slots of the Republican party are filled.
The Democrats?
27.4%.
Maricopa County, we are at 72% strength.
The Democrats are at 24% strength.
And down in Pima County, very blue Pima County, they've made great strides.
They have 39.5%.
They have 630 precinct committeemen in Pima County, Republican.
The Democrats, they only have 618.
They have fewer, and they're only at 36, 30.6%.
The other good news coming out of this whole thing is this thing really showed how the precinct committeeman strategy works.
We are interconnected now.
We're talking to one another.
And again, if you go to precinctstrategy.com, my website, precinctstrategy.com, follow the directions, try to find your local committee.
Please don't contact me until you've done that and tried that.
There's information for all 50 states.
I explain step-by-step how to do it.
And then connect with other conservatives in your state.
That button you're displaying there, that's on the site.
That's our new communications and collaboration platform.
I'm trying, I'm going to try to get every America First precinct committeeman and those wanting to become precinct committeeman in the country onto this site.
We have almost not, not, not, I think we are over 9,400 people nationwide.
Here in Arizona, we have several hundred people.
Florida's got, I think, 700 people on it.
Texas, a similar number.
This is a place where you can share documents, you can chat about politics, and you can chat about the candidates.
And another thing you can do, if you're having trouble finding out where you live, how to get plugged into your political party committee, your Republican committee, call these America First candidates and ask them for help.
They're running for office, they're claiming to be America First, They ought to know how this all works, and they ought to be recruiting people like you to become precinct committeemen.
Because precinct committeemen are instrumental in boosting turnout in the primary.
steve bannon
Look, the firestorm that's happened in Arizona over the weekend has been amazing, and it shows you're right.
You're interconnected.
The system Beatles built for you guys is terrific.
I need everybody in Arizona to still go to the Precinct Strategy.
We don't have enough people signed up yet.
We want everybody signed up, everybody to join.
Also, throughout the country, Understand that this is the establishment, they are absolutely petrified of what I call participatory populism, where you actually get engaged in the system.
It doesn't cost you any money.
So go to Precinct Strategy and just sign up, get on there, and get rolling.
I want to go back to that number.
What's the difference in percentages of the Democrats that are participating versus the Republicans in Arizona right now?
dan schultz
Of the potential slots that they have and we have statewide, we're at 63.5% strength.
They're at 27.4% strength.
In Maricopa County, where 63% of Republicans live, we have 72% of our available precinct committeeman slots filled.
There's one slot for roughly every 125 voters.
You're part of the elite when you become a precinct committeeman.
The Democrats only have 24.7% filled.
And down in their stronghold down in Pima County, where Tucson is, we've got 630 precinct committeemen, 39.5% filled.
They have fewer than we have.
They only have 618 precinct committeemen, and that's 30.6% of their total.
unidentified
We're stronger now by a percent on a percentage basis and numbers basis in Tucson.
steve bannon
People throughout the country are going to say Tucson with the University of Arizona is super blue.
It's like Austin.
It's like Madison, Wisconsin.
This is a super blue and we outnumber them there.
OK, this has got to get to the bottom now.
I don't think this is going to be this easy.
People said, oh, we're just going to change it.
I think we've got a struggle here.
I really do.
I just don't think the Democrats are going to work with us.
I don't think Ducey.
I think you're going to say tough break for swell guys.
dan schultz
Yeah, I agree with you.
We have to get, I think, a two-thirds vote in both chambers, and then we have to get Governor Ducey to sign it.
It's hard to undo bad legislation.
steve bannon
We've got to light up the Senate and the House there.
It's color within the lines, but you've got to let people know how upset you are that this happened.
We've got to deal with this with everything else going on.
Dan Schultz, once again, give how people get there, and also give your social media.
dan schultz
Precinctstrategy.com is the site to learn how to get involved.
Follow the directions.
Call me or contact me only if you get stuck.
Try it yourself first.
On social media, I occasionally use Twitter.
I'm at Dan Schultz Two.
Dan Schultz, two.
And on Getter, I'm just Dan Schultz.
And I'm trying to use Getter more and more and more, and Twitter less and less and less.
steve bannon
Dan Schultz, thank you very much for joining us.
We're going to fight on this thing.
Thanks, Steve.
Next hour, we're going to have Neil McCabe, who's been covering this nonstop.
He's got some pretty explosive information to talk to you about how this went down.
Okay, we're going to take a short commercial break.
The Truckers Are here in the nation's capital down the Beltway.
I think some actual senior representatives in the Senate, maybe the House, are going to meet with them tomorrow out in Hagerstown.
They've been going around the Beltway.
We're going to get live reports.
We've got Ben Berquam from Real America's Voice going to try to get Michael Yan in here also.
Short commercial break.
We'll be back.
Go to Hagerstown with the truckers with the convoy the people's convoy. We return War room Pandemic.
unidentified
With Stephen K. Bannon.
The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide.
War Room.
Pandemic.
Here's your host Stephen K. Bannon.
steve bannon
You know, we got to get that Getter ad recut.
I'm lucky my staff has been on.
I'm just, I'm bugging them.
They've been working 24-7.
Got the new show that's going to launch.
By the way, it's up on Rumble.
You go to warroom.org, Lyndale TV, and John Frederick's Radio.
You can go everywhere.
Make sure you don't miss it.
We're going to start here.
We had War Room Impeachment, right?
That was for a short period of time.
We had War Room Pandemic.
That's still rolling.
And we're adding an hour just about the nitty gritty of 2022 called battleground right battlegrounds and battleground states is battleground and it's going to be it's going to be a grind of how we're going to make history and take down the Democratic Party as it currently exists.
I want to go out.
Right now to the to the Speedway out in Hagerstown.
Real America's Voice, great investigative reporter Ben Berquam.
You've been with them, Ben.
Tell us what was today like?
Because today is really the first day back to work.
I heard the rigs went and they went without their trailers, right?
So tell us what went on today.
ben bergquam
Yeah, it was beautiful, Steve.
We just got back here to Hagerstown Speedway.
We were out for the last several hours going around the beltway.
And as you know, if you've driven that, a little bit of traffic makes a lot of traffic.
And these guys, we're talking thousands of vehicles.
It was wall-to-wall, gridlock in many places.
And the support came out en masse across the overpasses.
Again, people are coming out.
We've got more trucks coming, you can see behind me.
And I just love it.
It's like, it's just an American party.
It's like, The Woodstock of conservatism.
You got this dog hanging out in the truck, riding along with his owner.
This is the best of what America has to offer.
And this is just the beginning, Steve.
I want to tie it to everything that you're doing the next hour of the show.
It all ties together.
This is about 2022 and 2024.
the gas. By the way, Ben, you're getting pretty good there, man.
steve bannon
I'm going to steal that tagline.
But here's the question.
Now that they're there, they've come all the way across the country.
It's been very peaceful.
You've had every overpass.
Sporopolis and Yon have done such a great job.
By the way, Yon's going to join us at the top of the next hour because I didn't want to cram Ben.
But Ben, what is their task and purpose now?
And I understand there's some senior guys.
I'm hearing all kinds of scuttlebutter.
Who's going to go out there tomorrow to see them?
What are the drivers?
In their mind, what's their objective now?
ben bergquam
Well, it's much more than just mandates.
It's much more than just the vaccine or mask mandates.
This is really about tyranny that's been ongoing for years.
A lot of these drivers came all the way across from California.
And if you know anything about California regulations on truckers, they've been out of control forever from, uh, from carb to the new emission standards to the, uh, electronic logs and everything else.
And it really what it comes down to is tyranny across the board and, and really the vaccines and the mandates, the mask mandates were just the straw that broke the camel's back.
These guys are fed up. They're pissed off.
And when you talk about warriors that'll stand up for America, I think that's the real reason why the, why Joe Biden and the Democrats are so afraid of what's happening right now.
You talk about people that will, will, uh, tell you to your face, what they think, and they're not afraid to do it.
Truck drivers are the salt of the earth. These guys don't mess around. They, they put their, you know, they're out there every single day, day in and day out from morning till night, driving the trucks, filling the shelves, stocking the, the, the grocery stores that we eat from.
If they stopped working, America would start starving.
And that's the reality of what it is.
And I think the Democrats realize they have a group of people that actually work for a living coming to D.C.
to call them out.
And if this happens, when this happens, if these guys actually go on the streets of D.C.
and the mainstream media actually does their job and spreads the message, The entire American populace is going to start changing direction.
That's what they're afraid of.
These guys are going to meet with some of the senior representatives.
The question I have, you know, if you're meeting with the Ted Cruz's of the world, the Rand Paul's, the Marjorie Taylor Greene's and Matt Gates, You're really preaching to the choir.
The question is, what is it going to take to meet with some of the Democrats, maybe some of the sane-minded Democrats, if they still exist, that are worried about 2022 and 2024 going forward?
That's really where the rubber is going to meet the proverbial road.
And that's what we're going to see over the next few days.
These guys aren't going anywhere.
I've talked to guys from Missouri, Texas, from Wisconsin, from Washington State, from California.
They drove their rigs over here and they said they're not leaving until something changes.
steve bannon
You know, I want to also say, I think that there's certain people that had to just take off.
They came across the tent for the 10 or 11 days.
They made their point.
They were part of the convoy.
Some of them have got to go back to work, pick up loads.
But you're actually, and we saw this with Vernon Jones the other day down in Georgia, you've got many more from the Mid-Atlantic and the South that are in the Midwest are actually coming together.
This thing is actually growing.
Is that correct, Ben?
ben bergquam
That's right.
It is growing and the beauty of it is, if you've, next time, just do this for me, next time you're on a freeway, count the number of semis that you pass, that pass you, that you pass, that are out on the roads.
This is a tiny fraction of what's out there and I think what we're going to start seeing is a rotation of truckers that say, you know what, these guys did it for 10 days, I could do my 10 days.
You start seeing that across America and maybe it's these guys this month and maybe a core group that stay here and then we have 10,000 more next month and 20,000 more the next month.
I mean, we're talking about something that could really, really start to grow and there are tens of thousands of rigs out there that are watching what's happening and saying, you know what, I'm ready, I'm going to go do that.
I'm going to take a vacation, take my two weeks, take my family, I'm going to take my truck down and join this thing.
And I think that's what we're starting to see.
We're hearing convoys starting to converge all over the Northeast, all over the Northwest that are all coming to the same place with the same message.
It's time to end the tyranny, to get back to freedom and liberty to what this country was founded on.
And ultimately, these guys are like, if we don't do it now, we're going to lose this nation forever.
And you know, it's funny, we asked Mike, Mike, the guy was riding in with the lead truck driver, Landis, and he said, He was asked all the time, he's been asked several times, why does it take the truck drivers?
And his answer is, I don't know, but nobody else was doing it, so we decided to do it.
And that's really what's happening.
People are finally standing up, and I think we're going to see not just truck drivers, but people from all over America say, enough is enough, we've had enough, and we're going to take this country back.
steve bannon
Yeah, no, it's self-organizing.
It's amazing.
Now, where do people go?
It's the People's Convoy.
I want to make sure everybody's safe.
They've had safety and security for 12 days.
They go to the peoplesconvoy.org to find out all the logistics.
And Ben, give us how people... I know you're doing a great job out there for Real America's Voice and you're going to be out there for a couple days.
How do people get to you and your reporting?
ben bergquam
Yes, and as you mentioned, peoplesconvoy.org.
You can find our reporting, americasvoice.news, obviously on America's Voice, frontlineamerica.com is mine, and then at Ben Birkwam on all social media.
I've been going live on Getter.
That's my primary platform to go live from, so check it out at Ben Birkwam.
steve bannon
And real quickly, your show, Law & Border, when's the next episode?
ben bergquam
We're actually heading down.
It's just non-stop.
We're heading down.
We had our premiere episode a couple weekends ago.
I'm going to be heading down back to La Jolla, Texas next week and Pinelle County, Arizona.
So we'll be having a new episode coming out in April.
steve bannon
It's a hit.
Okay, if you're on Getter, if you're on Lyndale TV watching, stick right there.
On Rumble, just stick right there.
The next hour is going to be War Room.
Battleground, we'll see you there.
We're going to get into the nitty-gritty of politics in 2022 and how we're going to take this country back and actually destroy the Democratic Party as an operating institution at the ballot box by blowing them out up and down tickets.
See you in a minute.
