Eh?
Who called?
Let every noise be still!
Peace, yet again!
Who is it in the press that calls on me?
I hear a tongue shriller than all the music.
Christ Caesar!
Speak!
Caesar is turned to hear!
Beware the Ides of March!
What man is that?
A soothsayer bids you beware the Ides of March.
Set him before me.
Let me see his face.
Fellow, come from the throng.
Look upon Caesar.
Thank you.
What sayest thou to me now?
Speak once again.
Beware the Ides of March.
He is a dreamer.
Let us leave him.
I know that you all support Ukraine.
We've been friends with you, Justin.
But also, I would like you to understand, and I would like you to feel this, what we feel every day.
We want to live, and we want to be victorious.
We want to prevail for the sake of life.
Can you imagine when you call your friends, your friendly nation, and you ask, please close the sky, close the airspace, please stop the bombing, how many more cruise missiles have to fall on our cities?
Until you Make this happen.
And they, in return, they express their deep concerns about the situation.
when we talked with our partners and they said, please hold on a little longer.
Some people are talking about trying to avoid the escalation.
Thank you.
Bye.
And at the same time, in response to our aspiration to become members of nature, we also do not hear a clear answer.
Oh Caesar!
Will thou lift up Olympus, great Caesar?
Doth not Brutus bootless kneel?
Splat, sons, for me!
Oh
Shift to... Brutic!
Oh!
Shh!
Then fall, Caesar.
Shh!
Liberty!
Freedom!
Tyranny's dead!
Average cost of gas is now a record $4.43 a gallon.
That's up by 79 cents over the last two weeks.
And this is the most drivers have been paying at the pump since 2008.
And the bad news is experts say these prices are not going down anytime soon.
I drive my grandchildren and I go and see them.
That's my joy.
And it's like I don't want the price of gasoline keeping me from visiting my grandchildren.
joe biden
Let me close with this.
Today, we're again showing the American people that, as a country, we can come together as Democrats, Republicans, and Independents and do big things, that our democracy can deliver, can deliver, and outperform autocracies, and that there's nothing we can't do when we do it together as the United States of America.
So, I'd like to now invite up my Budget Director, Shalanda Young, And all the members of the Congress here today while we sign this bipartisan government funding bill.
Thank you all very much.
unidentified
I'm next to you, Shalaya.
Shalaya.
Speak a little.
joe biden
Thank you.
I wanted to make sure that my signature was legible.
Well, it is tragic.
unidentified
Stage mind is and how dark his is.
joe biden
Yeah, I know.
I'll tell you what, Nancy.
Anyway, I'm going to give it a shot here, OK?
unidentified
All right.
All right.
joe biden
Thank you.
unidentified
Give the pen to Shalanda.
jen psaki
The President will travel to Brussels, Belgium later this month, where he will join an extraordinary NATO summit on March 24th to discuss ongoing deterrence and defense efforts in response to Russia's unprovoked and unjustified attack on Ukraine, as well as to reaffirm our ironclad commitment to our NATO allies.
He will also join a scheduled European Council summit to discuss our shared concerns about Ukraine, including transatlantic efforts to impose economic costs on Russia, provide humanitarian support to those affected by the violence, and address other challenges related to the conflict.
unidentified
that.
French, Roman, countrymen, lend me your ears!
I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him!
.
The evil that men do lives after them.
The good is often tattered with their bones.
So let it be with Caesar.
The noble Brutus hath told you Caesar was ambitious.
If it were so, it was a grievous fault.
And grievously hath Caesar answered it.
Hear on the leave of Brutus and the rest, for Brutus is an honourable man.
So are they all, all honourable men, come I to speak in Caesar's funeral.
He was my friend, faithful and just to me.
But Brutus says he was ambitious, and Brutus is an honourable man.
He hath brought many captives home to Rome, whose ransoms did the general coffers spill.
Did this in Caesar seem ambitious?
When did the poor have cried, Caesar hath wept?
Ambition should be made of sterner stuff.
Yet Brutus says he was ambitious, and Brutus is an honorable man.
You all did see that on the loop of Caliph, Rice presented him a kingly crown, which he did thrice refuse.
Was this ambition?
Yet Brutus says he was ambitious, and sure he is an honorable man.
I speak not to disprove what Brutus spoke, but here I am to speak what I do know.
You all did love him once, not without cause.
What cause withholds you then to mourn for him?
O judgment, thou hast led the brutish beast And men have lost their reason!
steve bannon
Okay from uh, William Shakespeare, that's Julius Caesar.
I think it's Joe Mankiewicz directing.
Very powerful film, if you haven't seen it, I would.
2066 years ago today, the Ides of March in Rome, Julius Caesar, the head of the populist wing of the Senate, killed by his colleagues who thought he was trying to consolidate power and make himself a dictator, an emperor, or a king, which Rome had never had.
Okay, we had a lot in that cold open.
I want to thank the team for doing a fantastic job both in Denver and here at your humble servants at the War Room.
A lot going on today, but particularly talk about betraying a country.
They're sitting there clapping in the Oval Office and, you know, giving each other pins.
That's for what they did in the dark of night.
They did not want to take the heat of the War Room.
They didn't want to take a heat of the war room posse, so they got it all done in one day.
Remember we had Russ Vogt.
We were going to have all the phone lines for you.
You could bang on these Republican senators to make sure that they wouldn't sign this.
And what they do, they worked all night.
And why was it?
Because in a An appropriations package with the transfer payments and discretionary spending comes to over five trillion dollars, of which only three and a half trillion is paid for by taxes and other revenues and fees.
One, what, 1.3 trillion not paid for.
We're just going to crank, crank, keep cranking the printing press going.
And producer Price Ingalls today announced the highest in history, the highest in recorded history, 10 percent.
Okay, from 44 B.C., we're going to go to the year of our Lord, 2022.
It is 15 March.
The Ides of March and your life in the world here on Tuesday.
I want to bring in Philip Patrick from Birch Gold.
Philip, the irresponsibility, the irresponsibility of this city, it absolutely shocks me.
Talk to me about that spending bill of which in the dead of night, in the dead of night, they passed it.
Worked all night.
I think they passed at three o'clock in the morning.
What are your thoughts, sir, about this and about this orgy of spending here in this capital city?
phillip patrick
It was hard to watch.
Watching them standing around clapping while they bury the nation in debt was very difficult to watch.
So let's look at it.
One and a half trillion dollar price tag for a bipartisan Spending package to help Ukraine and finance federal agencies for the last half of the year now looking at the package 13.6 billion dollars is there to help Ukraine resist the invasion of Russia that's less than one third of 1% of the total spending and And to be very clear, it's the only reason that that bill got signed today, right?
So what this looks like to me is scapegoating, right?
They're basically using the war in Ukraine to push through massive spending packages, but We don't have to worry.
Okay, Nancy Pelosi came out very clearly and stated that increased government spending is going to reduce the national debt.
Again, crazy talk coming from these people.
It's not surprising, right?
These guys are using the war, not only to push through massive spending, but also to rationalize surging inflation, right?
What did Biden come out and say?
And this is a direct quote.
Make no mistake, Rising gas prices are largely the fault of Putin, right?
Pelosi's echoing it, talking about Putin's gas hike.
It's like these people have lost their minds, right?
They found a new scapegoat.
Forget pandemic lockdown, supply chain blips, labor shortages.
That's what they were trying to blame everything on last year.
Now it's the war in Ukraine, right?
Forget the fact that that inflation was at a 40-year high before any Russian boot stepped foot in Ukraine. A 40-year high, right? So why are they doing this? The Dems are getting desperate, right? They're looking at the midterm elections, blaming Putin for all of our worries.
That's a strategic political move, Most Americans believe that the economy is heading in the wrong direction.
Biden doesn't want Americans to believe that the Republicans can put out this dumpster fire, right?
So by blaming Putin, Napoleon or the Tooth Fairy, they're hoping to convince voters that the Republicans can't fix the issue.
So what's the solution?
More Biden, more spending.
It is absolutely shocking.
It's absolutely shocking.
steve bannon
We're going to go to a quick break.
Just two quick questions.
Is Nancy Pelosi right?
Does more government spending, does more federal spending in any way reduce the deficit or the debt ceiling?
phillip patrick
No, Nancy Pelosi is as wrong as you can be.
And honestly, it's got to be just... They're treating us like idiots here.
And it's so frustrating.
They're treating voters like idiots.
Of course she's not right, Steve.
steve bannon
Is this Putin's gas hike or is this Putin's inflation, Philip Patrick?
phillip patrick
No, it's not Putin's gas.
Listen, America, we imported less than 3% of our oil from Russia.
It's nonsense.
We were seeing it before, we're seeing it now.
steve bannon
We're going to take a short break.
Philip Patrick's on the other side for us.
Let me be... Philip's too much of a gentleman.
It's a bald-faced lie.
They're lying to you because they think the American people are idiots and they're not idiots.
Short commercial break.
Back with Birchgold's Philip Patrick in a moment.
unidentified
War Room, pandemic with Stephen K. Bannon.
The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide.
War Room Pandemic.
Here's your host Stephen K. Bannon.
steve bannon
Okay, promo code warremypella.com.
We've got the annual sleep sale, we have the biblical pillows, the biblical throw blankets for the kids and grandkids, 30% off.
You've got the overstock items, 50% off.
You've got the towels, six pack of towels, normally $109, now $39.

MyPillow.com, promo code WARROOM, the armor-piercing shell that is Mike Lindell, and of course, your humble servants here at the War Room Apparatus.
Make sure you check it out today.
We greatly appreciate it.
That is promo code WARROOM, MyPillow.com.
Go see the square, see all the sales we got up there.
Okay, well I've got two disturbing things.
One, just PPI.
Any other discussion of PPI.
Now the thing's out of control.
It's 10% for the producer price.
That's the wholesale price.
That's going to flow through to consumer price.
People are going to get blown up here starting, even more so than they are today.
Right, which is completely out of control, whether it's food, whether it's rent, whether it's fuel, gas for your car, you name it, it's really starting to get out of control.
Any thoughts on PPI before I turn to them?
This is not even the worst news.
The out-of-control orgy of spending, of which we can't pay for.
The inflation at all-time highs.
This is the highest ever recorded history, right?
At least the modern history of America since they've been keeping these statistics.
And I haven't even gotten to the bad news yet.
unidentified
Anything on PPI, Philip Patrick.
phillip patrick
Well, it's never been higher ever in history than it is today.
And as you rightly point out, PPI is a leading indicator of rising street-level inflation to come, right?
So, the official inflation numbers 7.8% last time, PPI now at 10%.
That's going to drive street-level inflation up.
So, it's really what we've all been expecting, and that is just significantly surging inflation in the months and possibly years to come.
It's bad news.
But not unsurprising.
There's worse news to talk about, sadly.
steve bannon
There's worse news.
And I want to go back and make the historical analogy.
Back in the Ides of March, the Ides were every month, I think, the 15th or the 13th.
It was a time to settle your debts, okay?
To settle your debts, historically, in Rome.
Remember, the whole reason for this assassination is they thought Caesar and the founders of our country so admired, not just the Greeks, they really admired the Romans.
They admired the Roman Senate, the Roman Republic.
So much of the writing of our founders, so much of the structure of our government is based upon classical Republican Rome, okay?
Caesar was assassinated because they thought Caesar, using the mob and being a populist, was trying to get power and become a king or an emperor of life or a dictator.
And he was assassinated by his fellow colleagues in the Senate, including one of his closest, Brutus, who's an honorable man, as Mark Antony is saying there.
There was a tremendous civil war after that.
And then after that civil war was the Roman Empire, okay?
It was all put to bed.
The Roman Republic was finished.
You still had the Senate, but it basically was a rubber stamp to a large extent.
This imperial city here has been built upon King Dollars, what Steve Cortez talks about it.
Philip Patrick and myself have been working on something and we're a couple of days away from putting out, but I want to talk to you.
We'll probably hope to have it out by tomorrow or Thursday, maybe.
We'll get some graphics done, but it's a whole assessment Of the end of the dollar empire okay the end of the dollar empire and it's based upon for since Bretton Woods since World War Two we have become the prime reserve currency like the pound was before them but.
We have abused that.
And who's really been abused the most are the people that undergird that system.
That's the working class and middle class in this country that are really the substrate, the foundational element to the civic society that makes this all go right and makes our capital markets so robust.
Right.
Makes makes the ability to finance things in America and to raise equity capital on our massive pension funds.
Right.
And insurance companies all comes off the sweat of the brow.
Of this audience.
And we because people have abused that.
And I say people, I mean Wall Street, the corporatocracy, this Uniparty up here and you saw them all clapping and handing out pens and they did all these are some tough trade-offs and no tough trade-offs, no tough decisions.
It's how much you're going to increase an already out of control budget that you don't have to pay for because we're still the prime reserve currency.
Well, hey today, And remember, because we declared offensive economic war on the Russian people, not the oligarchs, forget taking the yachts and the football teams, that's all nothing.
That's marginal.
We have declared war on their central bank, we swept their bank reserves, we've destroyed the ruble, their stock market can't open.
That is to put the Russian people into depression for what?
For regime change.
It's economic warfare, which is sophisticated 21st century warfare.
There's been a response.
As we warned you, there was going to be a response.
Because you didn't focus on the Chinese Communist Party, you focused on the junior partner, the Chinese Communist Party.
Saudi Arabia would not take a phone call from Joe Biden.
They wouldn't take a phone call, but they made an announcement.
They offered a state visit to Xi, and then today, this economic group they got, this Eurasian Economic Group, announced they're starting a project to have an alternative currency to the dollar, and as Phillip Patrick, you can comment on this Wall Street Journal bombshell.
That says that the Saudis are prepared to take Chinese currency, the yuan, in settlement for the massive output deal they're about to cut, which was our former partner.
Remember, one of the most vicious dictatorships in the world, the Saudi royal family that we have propped up.
Hello, Bush family.
Hello, Bush family.
That we have propped up for 40 or 50 years.
Phillip Patrick, how big a deal this, and ladies and gentlemen, when this gets traction, and it's going to get, if Iran and Saudi take a basket of these currencies and replace it with a dollar, because nobody wants to get stuck with a big devaluation, if they do that, this day will go down in history as the beginning of the end of the American Empire.
Phillip Patrick.
phillip patrick
I mean, how big is it?
It's about as big as it gets.
This is significant for the United States and our standing in the world.
So, let's look at what's happening.
So, Saudi Arabia right now in active talks with Beijing and the CCP to price some of its oil sales to China in Yuan, right?
It's big.
Currently, 80% of global oil sales are in US dollars.
Saudi Arabia have priced their oil in dollars since 1974 exclusively.
The Saudis even pegged their currency to the dollar.
That's how close the relationship is.
Now, what this shows us, these moves, is the dollar is definitely in decline as the world's global reserve currency.
Now, this isn't new.
These talks have been going on for the last five or six years, but they've escalated dramatically this year.
Why?
The Biden regime.
In particular, the Saudis were unhappy with Biden's attempt to strike a nuclear deal with Iran again, and they've grown increasingly unhappy with this decades old security agreement that we have with what they have with the US.
So they need a new protector, right?
Exit US enter China.
Why does it make sense for China?
China buys 25% of Saudi Arabia's oil right now.
What this would do for them is boost the standing of the yuan within the global financial system and chip away at the dominance of the US dollar.
Now, this affects us massively because Washington has relied for decades now to finance its massive deficit spending on the back of this dollar dominance.
The timing and you've mentioned this and I think you're absolutely spot on it's no coincidence for the Chinese that the use of the dollar has become a weak point and I think one that they're eager to avoid right the Chinese have seen what the US has done to Russia essentially weaponizing the US dollar and using it against them when Biden froze Russia's bank accounts the central bank sovereign wealth funds The Chinese realized if it could happen to them, it could happen to us.
steve bannon
Yes.
phillip patrick
This is bad news now.
Bad news, because what it does increasingly, we're going to start to see the dollar sidelined in global transactions.
The market for U.S.
debt is going to evaporate.
And who's going to get stuck with the bills?
We are.
And if Biden has his way, they're going to be massive.
Right.
It's significant.
steve bannon
Just remember, in a time that we're hurtling towards a recession, the question is, is it going to be in the summer?
Is it going to be in the third quarter later?
Is it going to be in the fourth quarter?
It's coming, right?
In particular, these PPI.
At a time that maybe you want to have some dry powder to be able to use on spending, we're going to have to start to go through massive cuts.
Massive cuts.
You're not going to be able to finance this.
The old games of just putting on the printing press are not going to work anymore.
Because people are going to say, I don't need all these dollars.
Remember, I think it's M1, Patrick.
When Trump declared the emergency for COVID, for the CCP virus, on mid-March of 2020, there were $5 trillion in circulation.
Right.
I think there's something like 20 trillion dollars M2.
There's 20 trillion dollars today.
There's been this massive increase in because of all the deficit spending, what we're doing on Wall Street, what we're doing with quantitative easing.
And remember, the Biden administration hasn't hasn't tapped up interest rates yet, and they haven't stopped.
They haven't done quantitative tightening.
They're still doing quantitative easing.
My point is, it's so out of control on every element of it.
And now you're seeing people in the world are going, hey, how about this?
We've had a bellyful of the way you guys are running this.
A system may not be as strong as yours, but we're going to try it.
Philip Patrick, how do people, more than ever, I think we're proving here in the last couple of months, the 5,000 years of history, gold is a hedge to tough times.
How do people get to you and your team at Birch Gold?
phillip patrick
So, Birchgold.com forward slash Bannon.
They're going to have access to the report that you wrote, which is fantastic.
That'll be up in the next couple of days.
Birchgold.com slash Bannon.
You can reach me directly on getter at Philip Patrick.
steve bannon
When you read The End of the Dollar Empire, you're going to get a little rattled, and you should get rattled.
We're just giving you information, but it's time now.
You have to immerse yourself.
You have to immerse yourself in information.
You now have to start thinking clearly and with focus, because trust me, these people on Wall Street and here, it's absolutely sick what they're doing.
You saw they're clapping and handing out the pins.
I hope that goes down as a day event for me.
Philip Patrick, real quickly, Philip, your social media, because I know people follow you on Getter.
What's your social media?
phillip patrick
At Philip Patrick on Getter.
steve bannon
Okay, brother.
Thank you very much.
Thanks for helping with the report.
Look forward to putting it out in the next couple of days.
We're going to have a big segment on it.
We'll show the graphics and all that.
Thank you.
Really proud of this.
End of the Dollar Empire coming here in the next day or two.
Okay.
Short commercial break.
We're going to go to the border that matters to American citizens and matters to the sovereignty of this nation.
The border that's down right across from the Rio Grande Valley.
Okay?
Next, Ben Burquham, Real America's Voice, joins us in Ohio, Texas.
unidentified
Police!
What?
What's that one over there in the back?
Hold up.
Let me try to get in.
Ready?
One, two, three.
Police!
Policia! Policia!
On this side, on this side.
Clear! Clear!
Check that pantry.
Watch that one over there in the back.
Let me try to get you in. Ready?
One, two, three.
Police!
Policia!
I got one more door, I got one more door.
Policia!
Alright, let's check the room.
Ready?
I got you.
Hello, police!
Clear, clear.
Ready?
Clear, clear.
Go.
Clear.
Wow.
steve bannon
Ben Berquam, Real America's Voice investigative reporter, back in his element.
That's in the rear Grand Valley.
Ben, what did we just see there?
It looks pretty scary.
ben bergquam
It is scary, Steve.
This is what the people of the Rio Grande Valley have to live with on a daily basis.
I'm at one of the houses that you saw raided in that video there.
There's one of three houses that was raided and actually seized by La Jolla, Texas PD in a raid against suspected cartel smugglers.
It's been an ongoing investigation.
It's actually ongoing as we speak now.
And again, this is one of the houses behind us.
And we actually had the opportunity to go into that house again yesterday.
And as we were walking through the house, one of the things you notice before we go into talk about what we saw in there is where it is.
It's right here in an affluent part of the city.
It's right in the middle of it.
And actually, the three houses that we went to, they were spread out across the city, and they are all in areas that are high residential areas.
And what we've been told, I've talked to many people down here, is one of the big reasons why you don't hear very much, why there's a reason why media doesn't do very much down here, is because of the threat of violence against you for showing this, for exposing these.
The people that live right next door, if they're not paid off by the cartels, then they're in fear for their life if they say anything and report the cartels.
And what's shocking is right behind the door, that garage door right there, is a mural.
And when we walked in there, it's the first thing you see.
It's a Pablo Escobar, Tony Montaña, and El Chapo.
And what it does is it's glorifying the cartel.
It's glorifying killers.
It's glorifying this idea of murderous cartel members.
And this is what they're up against.
La Jolla, Texas.
This is just one of these suspected smuggling groups that works with The Gulf Cartel in Mexico.
It's all connected to the cartels and there are multiple different groups like this all across this city and multiple different groups like this all across our southern border that are many times Mexican nationals or foreign nationals that are working directly with the cartels in America and threatening the lives of the people in this community.
I got to tell you I do a lot of sketchy things but standing out here in front of this house they have they have lookout houses all around the city and it is You kind of get the sense of what the people feel like living here, having to deal with this every single day.
steve bannon
Look, I'm going to say something that I think will shock a lot of our audience that maybe are not familiar with South Texas or go there, but when you go to this beautiful medical facility, and I asked somebody, I said, gosh, the city's got some poverty, but it's got some working class and middle class.
Man, it's got a lot of mansions with swimming pools.
And I said, what is down here that people make on the money?
They said, oh, that's where the cartel guys live.
I said, what do you mean?
I said, that's where their families, they got these big, This is what I say.
the families are all there, you use the medical center, the kids all go to school.
And it's like Geneva in Switzerland. This is how out of control it is. And this is what I say, why are we spending a second on the eastern border of Ukraine with these Russian breakaway provinces, right, that have been back and forth for thousands of years, not a couple of years, and not 20 years, and not 30 years.
These people have been fighting over there over the stuff for thousands of years.
And guess what?
They're going to be fighting over there on exactly these issues a thousand years from now.
It's not going to change.
So why is this maniacal focus of our elites?
They just had to pass this one in three trillion dollars because they had to get the 14 billion.
They had to be performative.
They had to have the optics of that.
When we have American citizens that live under the fear of this and you have government apparatuses just look the wrong look the other way.
What's the fear level like?
This is why Hispanics in Rio Grande Valley and South Texas are coming to the Trump cause, are coming to America first, are coming to make America great again, become MAGA.
Because this is what they want.
They're tired of the real invasion for our sovereignty, our self-determination, our territorial integrity, all the stuff the Swells tell you that they're so worried about in Ukraine and wringing their hands on Ukraine.
That's the southern border of the United States.
Now, far be it from me To say, oh, because those are white folks over there and they're Hispanics in the Rio Grande Valley.
That's where our elites, the Atlanticist, the Atlanticist.
You ever seen Davos?
You ever seen the Party of Davos?
You ever seen the World Economic Forum?
ben bergquam
Right?
steve bannon
You're not going to get more lily white than that.
And the same people come on MSNBC and all the big think tanks at the Atlantic Council and Aspen Institute.
That's all they care about.
They do not care about hard-working Hispanics in the Rio Grande Valley.
Their lives can just be tossed away.
Ben Berquam.
ben bergquam
You're right.
To answer your question, they're in fear for their lives.
The people around here, we've spoken to many of them, and very few are willing to go on camera because of that.
They know the level of violence.
When you're talking about people that dismember rivals while they're still alive, or snitches while they're still alive, this is a level of evil that's hard to comprehend.
And when you live right next to that evil, It's a scary thing.
It's an absolutely terrifying thing for many of the people that live here, not to mention the people that they're bringing over, that are breaking into their houses.
And we have the 9-1-1 calls of women home alone, as men are trying to break into their house.
It is absolutely terrifying for the people down here.
But I have to say, too, that they've been looking for somebody to stand up for them.
That's why they love President Trump so much.
That's why they love Steve Bannon to the war room and the real America's voice so much is they know that there are finally people in the country that are going to stand up with them and stand against this.
It's a virus. You want to talk about a pandemic, you want to talk about a virus, it's this.
It's allowing this. These guys basically became untouchable under Joe Biden and the Democrats.
It's open borders policies.
These guys are, they're basically working with impunity.
And now we're having these law enforcement agencies taking it upon themselves, like the Hoya Texas PD.
These guys are heroes of the highest degree.
They put their lives on the line every single day.
And you look at across America, other law enforcement agencies that are willing to do this, to fight this fight for you, for America, as the same Democrats are attacking law enforcement, are saying defund the police.
The American people are seeing it, and the people down here are seeing it.
And as you mentioned, we're right next to a lake.
There's half a million dollar houses over here.
Many of those are cartel members.
Many of them actually fled Mexico because of the violence in Mexico.
And all they did was bring that violence over with them to America.
And it's being paid for and supported by the Democrats in Washington, DC.
steve bannon
No American citizens should have to live in the type of fear And let me just put it in perspective.
Todd Benson was on here the night, and I think Todd said there's gonna be, I think it's in February, it's in March, they believe there's gonna be 186,000 folks come across the border, 186,000.
The Russian army sent, I think it's 150,000 troops into Ukraine.
the border, 186,000. The Russian army sent I think it's 150,000 troops into Ukraine.
We have 186,000 invaders, that's what it is, an invasion.
And I understand some of these people are motivated from getting away from the poverty.
I got that, but that's like not the deal.
That doesn't make you, that doesn't give you asylum.
It just doesn't.
Gang violence doesn't give you asylum.
It just doesn't.
A bad hurricane doesn't give you asylum.
It just doesn't.
That's not the way the system's set up.
We can't do that.
Okay?
There's a process for immigrants, and it's just not coming across the Rio Grande Valley.
$186,000 a month is more than the troops The army that Putin sent into Ukraine.
It's more than the Canadians, the British, and the Americans landed on D-Day.
I think there was 156,000 roughly landed of the Canadian, the British, and of the six beaches, or five beaches, I think that there was 156,000 troops on D-Day.
This is every month.
Putin ain't sending in 150,000 every month.
He sent it in one time.
He may get some reinforcements.
This is every month, and Todd Benjamin said it's only going to get worse.
And we have American citizens.
Remember, 50% of marine rifle platoons are of Hispanic descent.
These people are patriotic.
Why do they have to live in fear?
And why are we not passing things in the middle of the night?
$14 billion.
Send $14 billion.
Talk about the La Jolla Police Department.
These Hispanic American cops that are out there every day.
Is $14 billion coming down to the Rio Grande Valley to stop the invasion and to stop people being terrorized by some of the biggest murderers on Earth?
That's the Mexican cartels?
Is $14 billion coming there to stop this?
No, it is not.
Are they sitting around signing documents with their pens to send it down there to back up American citizens who kids the kid from Laredo, the young Lance Corporal Marine, gave his life for his country?
Ben Burquam.
ben bergquam
That's it.
The folks that live down here are being hung out to dry.
There are more people dying in America every single day from this invasion than have died in Ukraine in this entire war.
We're talking about around 3,000 people that are dying every single day from fentanyl overdoses, not to mention the murders that are taking place by MS-13, MS-18, and the terrorists that are coming across here.
We're slitting our own throat in America.
The people that swore an oath to this country that are breaking that oath need to be held accountable and the people like the heroes of La Jolla Texas PD and Pinell County sheriffs, we're going to be joining them tomorrow.
They need to be commended and uplifted and they need to be supported.
Not a single dime of our tax dollars should go to support another country's border until we secure our own.
steve bannon
Amen, brother.
Okay, Ben Berquam.
How do people get here?
You've got the new Saturday show, Lawn Border.
You've got the next episode you're working on.
You've got this tremendous footage you're shooting down there, down with Real America's Voice.
Where are you going to be over the next couple of days, and how can people track you on Real America's Voice and also on social media?
ben bergquam
Well, we're going to be uploading the footage that we're getting, some teasers for the next episode of Real America's Voice on America's Voice, all of our social media platforms, as well as America's Voice News.
And then my page is FrontlineAmerica.com and then on social media at Ben Burquam.
Tomorrow we're heading to Pinell County.
To join up with Sheriff Lamb and we'll be with them Thursday and Friday.
Shooting down there as well.
Continuing to tell the story of Law & Border.
And again, we'll be having a couple more episodes coming out very soon.
So I'll let you know as soon as we have those ready.
Telling the real story the mainstream media doesn't want you to see.
steve bannon
So you're going to Arizona to Pinal County.
That's fantastic.
Right down there on the border.
So we'll catch up with Ben on Thursday and Friday.
Ben, you be safe.
Because I'm telling you, it's treacherous down there.
And you summed it up best.
Until we secure the border of the United States, until we lock in the sovereignty of the United States on our southern border, Until we have territorial integrity on our southern border, until we have self-determination by the Hispanic Americans down there on our southern border, we should not be sending a penny.
Look, I understand it's incredibly emotional.
You see it 24 hours a day.
But our fight is here.
Our fight is here.
And people say, can't you do both?
Potentially could do both, but you've got to focus here.
You've got to pay attention here.
Ben Berquam, thank you so much for being here, brother.
Appreciate it.
ben bergquam
Thank you, sir.
steve bannon
There's an invasion on the southern border.
Todd Bensman is going to be 186,000 illegals crossed in the month of March.
186,000.
Maybe a little less, maybe a little more.
186,000.
That is what?
20%, 30% higher than the troops, at least the troops we know that Putin sent into Ukraine.
He sent them one time.
This is every month and Bensman said you could have April and May could be the biggest months in history.
In fact, I think he said, correct me if I'm wrong, March he said is going to be the biggest month in the history since they've been keeping records.
The biggest month.
With April bigger than that and May bigger than that.
Bigger than the army that landed at D-Day.
Think about that for a second.
The army that landed at D-Day, the tip of the spear to take Western Europe back, to free France and to go all the way to the Rhine River.
They had other, don't get me wrong, they added many, many more troops, but the tip of that spear was less than what comes across the southern border.
They don't want you to know this, they want to compare it.
They've destroyed the U.S.
dollar.
They have our greatest enemies winning now, consolidating the Eurasian landmass.
They're setting up their own monetary system.
They got an ally we've kept alive forever.
Saudi Arabia won't take the phone call of the commander-in-chief, but it'll call she for a state visit.
This is the situation we're in right now.
That's why we're Defcon 1.

Get the King James Version of the Old and New Testament.
You get the founding documents, the divinely inspired founding documents, the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, Bill of Rights, and also the Pledge of Allegiance in one bound version.
This was turned down by Lee Greenwood's publisher.
He had to do it himself, so we've partnered with him to make sure we get it out there.
If you go to godblesstheusabible.com Bible.com and you type in promo code WORM, you don't have to pay shipping and handling.
So go check it out, see if it's for you.
I'll tell you, it'll be a tremendous heuristic device, learning device for the entire family, particularly for kids and grandkids, to have the divinely inspired documents along with the Holy Word of God in the Bible.
Okay, I want to go now to Catholic Family News Editor-in-Chief Brian McCauley.
He's been on the show before.
Pretty big news out of the Vatican today.
We had Liz, you were on the other day, talk about this concept of Fatima and the blessing of Russia, the blessing of Ukraine.
It looked like it wasn't going to happen.
There's some developments today.
Is all this coming out of the Vatican we're hearing, is this true?
unidentified
Well, it appears to be true.
The Vatican's own press office announced today that Hope Francis would consecrate Ukraine and Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary on March 25th, which is a pretty significant day, because that is the day that history, tradition tells us that the Annunciation occurred, and also the day that the Crucifixion occurred on, the day, the first Good Friday was March 25th, so it's a pretty significant date.
steve bannon
Talk to me about the blessing and consecration of particularly Fatima, these visions, and why, because we have a huge audience of evangelicals and other Christians, but also other faiths, a lot of Jewish people, and a lot of people are just secular, right?
Maybe they've thrown in the towel and they're done.
Why does this not fall in the heading, and I say this in the kindest way possible, why does this not fall in the heading of the traditionalist Catholic voodoo, right?
Why is this something that's meaningful and people should take seriously?
unidentified
Well, because its message affects the whole world.
It was not just a message for Catholics.
So, in 1917, there were three little children who could barely read or write, didn't know very much, they were not very well educated, very poor in Portugal, and they saw visions, and a woman spoke to them and told them things that they could not even know.
Just for example, she talked about Russia, essentially, Which was in the throes of the Communist Revolution, which we forget in our day, there was no instant news.
People didn't know that that was happening.
Predicted the coming of World War II in 1938, and then performed a public miracle that even many non-Catholics, actually many atheists, witnessed on October 13, 1917.
The sun moved in the sky.
Again, it was witnessed by over 70,000 people, reported by secular media.
So again, it was a message for the whole world, but very much it relates to the world.
She predicted, as I said, World War II, which came to pass, but then also made a great promise of hope that there could be peace for the world.
But if people didn't listen, That there could be worse things.
And one of the interesting things about the prophecy, she told them, that Russia would spread its errors throughout the world if these wishes were not granted, and nations would be annihilated.
And I think that that's an important part of this, particularly for people, particularly populists or people that, national populists, because she doesn't say people would be killed.
It's very interesting.
She doesn't say people would die.
She says nations would disappear.
And that's really the New World Order.
That's what the globalists want to do.
They want nations to disappear.
So I think it's a very timely message.
steve bannon
If this is true, we only get a couple of minutes, but I don't want to say it's an obsession, that's too harsh a term, but there's been this big focus on consecrating Mother Russia for now almost a hundred years.
Pope John Paul II supposedly did it, but he didn't do it the right way.
Just give us a minute.
What is this focus, or some people would say obsession, about having the Pope, or having senior people, consecrate Holy Mother Russia?
unidentified
Well, I think the focus, again, the message says Russia would spread her errors throughout the world, bringing great persecutions.
And again, these are seven, eight-year-old children reporting this in 1917.
And Russia, as we all know, became the bulwark of communism, of socialism, spreading the errors of socialism, which have permeated even to our country.
There's so many people in Washington, D.C.
who are basically socialists.
That Russia would be this sort of instrument of evil that would bring this evil philosophy around the world.
And so it needed to be consecrated because it has this important role to play.
And that just as it brought a century of harm from communism, of great persecution, it would somehow play this role of restoration by being consecrated and by casting off its prior errors would do that.
steve bannon
And that's going to be March 25th.
We'll know if this is real in the next couple of days.
Real quickly, how do people get to the Catholic Family News?
I know you're covering this very extensively.
unidentified
Sure.
CatholicFamilyNews.com.
We have a YouTube, for now, channel and Rumble.
We do a weekly news broadcast where we'll certainly cover this.
And we also have several articles on our website, CatholicFamilyNews.com.
steve bannon
By the way, if you want to see Anne Applebaum, who's no fan of The War Room, but a magnificent book, The Red Famine, Stalin's War on Ukraine, if you want to see about what the communists did to Ukraine back in the 30s, the starvation of these people is mind-boggling of what happened.
So when you see these kids in Portugal able to basically forecast a lot of this evilness that came out of the communist regime, In Moscow.
It's unbelievable.
Unfathomable.
Brian, I really want to thank you.
We're going to stay on top of this.
As soon as you get more breaking news, Liz, you and yourself, always open invitation on this.
I want to stay very on top of this story.
Look forward to March 25th.
unidentified
Thank you.
