Speaker Time Text
unidentified
We'd like to start there.
What have you heard about this?
mika brzezinski
Russia planning to radically reduce activity around Kiev?
unidentified
And can you add to it?
Morning.
First of all, I'd like to say that I hope that today Americans wake up with sun and peaceful sky.
Unfortunately, it's not happened in my country.
The weapons are good to stop the Russian troops, but it's not enough to break Moscow's aggressive ambitions are not enough to stop this war.
The only way to do it is to punch the Russian economy.
That's why, of course, it's very important to continue all these sanctions.
It's necessary that new sanctions Every week and maybe two times, three times in a week.
Because if this war is not stopping, it means that it's not enough, these sanctions.
We are working very closely and share our opinion and we appreciate that our partners listen to us.
But once again, Every day, every hour, died our people.
Died, killed our children.
Bombing practically non-stop in our cities.
Some of them, it's practically destroyed.
This war, which is very similar, as happened in the Second World War, and very similar, we saw how ex-Nazis, fascists, in the territory of Europe, it's happened in this day.
It's necessary to stop.
It's very important to stop.
But you can see, and all the world see, how Ukrainian, our brave nations, fighting more than one month.
And we will be fighting till our victory.
But I'm absolutely sure that victory of Ukraine will be victory of United States.
It will be victory of all free world.
steve bannon
Okay, the spin and the happy talk.
I don't even want to get into the Nazis, Ukraine, World War II.
That's a whole, we could do a whole TED Talk on that, okay, to really get the facts, but we'll leave it as it may.
That's this morning Mika spin.
It's Tuesday, 29 March, Year of Error, 2022.
We've got a jammed show today.
Jason Miller, co-host for the first hour.
Naomi Wolf is going to join us for part of the second hour.
We've also got Don Jr.
is going to be in, I think, at the top of the 11 o'clock hour to talk about his new aggregation site.
It's on Fire, so we'll get to all that.
Got to start, we got Ben Harnwell in Rome.
We're going to talk about these negotiations.
Jason Miller spent Saturday with us.
I hate to say it, The War Room called this five weeks ago.
We're there at the negotiating table talking exactly what we said they were going to talk about.
We're going to get to that in a second.
A major event in Virginia Beach, Virginia today at Regent University.
I want to go to Dean Michelle Bachman.
Globalism Rising.
They've got, I think, a five-hour conference.
She's had these conferences before on 3 November, the voter fraud, all this.
Dean Bachman, who's going to be there?
What posse do you have down at Regent today on this Globalism Rising?
Who's with you?
unidentified
Well, it's only the finest.
We've got one of the best websites in the world today, the Gateway Pundit.
We have Jim and Joe Hoff, who are going to come and give us a timeline.
Right behind me, you see the two great Hoff brothers, and they're going to give a timeline of this rise of global authoritarianism.
It isn't just in America, Steve, as you know.
It's all over the world.
It's happening suddenly.
It's happening simultaneously.
The World Health Organization is one example.
Another example is just this last weekend, Bill Gates was saying 100% of Americans need to stop eating beef and start eating synthetic meat.
I mean, these people have a lot of plans for how we're supposed to live.
So we're going to be deep diving for five hours today on what is happening across the world with this rise of global authoritarianism.
So, Jim Hoft is in the blue tie, Joe Hoft is in the red tie, and then it's Leo Homan, who's a great investigative reporter, and he's going to join Dr. Michael Reckley.
steve bannon
Homan's amazing.
Have the authorities been called?
I mean, you've got the plots being cooked and baked right down there.
You've got the Hoft brothers, you've got Homan.
Who else is going to speak today?
unidentified
This is Truth Central right here in Virginia Beach today.
We've got Leo Homan, and he's going to talk on the World Economic Forum together with Dr. Michael Rechtenwald, and then we're going to have Bill Federer, who's going to give a history of fascism, socialism, communism, and compare that to what we're seeing across the world today.
It's going to be fabulous.
We have a theologian who's going to talk about what the Bible says about days that we live in.
It's going to be fantastic.
People can access it, it's free, it's live, and they can go to regent.edu slash globalism.
So join us.
It starts at noon today.
It's a five-hour deep dive.
It's very professionally done.
People are going to love it.
And you can share it with people.
So let people know.
Invite people to come and see this today.
It's answering the question, what is happening in America today?
What's happening in the world today?
That's what we're trying to answer.
steve bannon
Okay, I want all of our force multipliers.
We're going to be pushing this hard, and right before the end of the show, we're going to talk about it again, right at the end of War Room this morning, for five hours, as she did before, with the deep dive on 3 November, and all the voter fraud that went on, stealing you the election.
Remember, elections have consequences.
Stone elections have catastrophic consequences.
There's an all-star group down there that only Dean Michelle Bachman could convene.
I think this shows you the convening authority that you've got, Dean Bachman, because these are serious people.
It's a serious five hours.
It's all free.
I think we're going to try to get it on every different platform we've got and push it out hard.
Five hours starting at 12 noon all the way to five o'clock, and you've got everybody from the Gateway Pundit, the Twins, the Hoff Brothers, to Leo Homan and others.
It's going to be spectacular.
Dean Bachman, thank you very much.
We're going to push hard right before the end of the show to make sure everybody goes over there and joins you guys today at Regent University.
Thank you for doing this.
unidentified
Thank you, my brother.
Bye-bye!
Bye.
steve bannon
This is people that are getting it on, right?
When Bachman's on top of something, she's like a dog with a bone, right?
You can't get her off.
Just get those steel jaws and bite right down on it.
You're not going to get her off.
She's a true honey badger.
This thing today, they've been planning for a long time.
It's going to be fantastic.
Is it going to be on Getter?
Have we got that officially locked up yet?
jason miller
We will, by the time they get launching.
steve bannon
See, Miles is jumping in here.
He's giving you stink eye, right?
Before I go to Ben in Europe, because we're going to go to the southern border here in a second, talk about the real crisis here, the invasion.
We've got Cortez coming in to join Jason with some economics in a little while.
On Saturday, you were lit.
You were literally calling Biden out, and over the weekend, even a bigger disaster, right?
Because I don't think he had done, he hadn't done the, he had not done the, Putin's got to be removed yet, right?
And yesterday, he's doing the weird whisper into the thing.
And Tucker picked up on it last night.
I'm not saying Tucker's drafting off a Jason Miller hit on War Room, but Tucker sounded like you on Saturday.
jason miller
So for anyone who is listening Saturday, and hopefully that's just about everybody, you've got a very loyal audience, if you heard how fired up I was on Saturday, whether it be calling for the 25th Amendment because Biden's clearly lost his marbles, whether it be calling for impeachment because Biden stood up there and he lied because he knew about his son and his brother's business activities in both Ukraine and in China, that was before Joe Biden got up there and called for regime change and had to walk back for a second day in a row, a massive gaffe.
steve bannon
What he told us yesterday afternoon with the answer in five different ways, he wasn't walking it back.
The Commerce Department in the White House has got, I mean, how do they handle the guy, right?
Every answer is totally different than the one before.
jason miller
And it's for a completely different reason than what you normally think about for politicians, which is they're, you know, they have their finger up, they're trying to check the polls.
I don't think Joe remembers what he said five minutes ago.
And I'm not saying that that's not hyperbole.
steve bannon
I think you're right.
jason miller
That is, I don't think he, I think there's a little bit of a remnant.
There's kind of these leftover memories from the decades of being on Capitol Hill where he might, you know, jump to attention and start talking about the USSR, you know, something from, you know, from the blast from the past.
But let's talk about what Joe Biden did when we talk about the You know, the midnight clock as we think about how much closer we are.
The fact that we're in this massive confrontation right now, you have Russia invading Ukraine, you have people dying, you have NATO, you have Russia, everyone is at the edge and Joe Biden pushes for regime change.
There's no way you can try to spin or walk it back.
He said Putin cannot remain in power.
steve bannon
The President of the United States, or to quote unquote the President of the United States, I mean it played on Russian TV nonstop.
Before I go to Ben, you said something else on Saturday.
About every death in from the 14,000 have been there since killing fighting in eastern provinces since 2014 and all these the bloods on Joe Biden's hand and now you see the cynical nature of these negotiations.
Your thoughts this morning?
jason miller
I still stand by everything they said on Saturday.
All of these deaths are on Joe Biden.
This could have been prevented, but not only that, did Joe Biden not prevent them, he antagonized it over and over and over.
When Putin was starting to rear his ugly head and make the noise that he was going to make some moves here, They could have easily come out and said, Hey, there's not gonna be any NATO expansion.
Forget about whatever was agreed to or what promises we made in 2008.
There will not be NATO expansion.
Let's start taking things off the table.
Let's figure out how to get these guys to talk to save some of these innocent lives.
What did Brandon Biden do?
He went and sent another $200 million to Ukraine to go and arm them up even further.
He went and energized a lot of our NATO allies to go and do similar.
And then Biden, even in his new budget, said he's sending more money to Ukraine.
He's going to keep stacking it up.
steve bannon
It's all escalation.
It's all escalation.
Not de-escalation.
I'm going to go to Ben Harnwell in a row.
Ben, five weeks ago or four and a half weeks ago, you called.
You said, hey, Turkey's going to be the broker here.
You watch.
Turkey's going to be all over this.
Ben, get us up to date, because you picked it.
The buried lead in the Financial Times of London is, guess what?
EU membership.
They may agree to EU membership.
So this whole thing's just a cynical power play between the oligarchs.
That's what we're talking about.
The oligarchs are cutting a deal that the oligarchs can steal as much money as possible.
Ben Harnwell.
ben harnwell
That's absolutely right, Steve.
Good morning.
Good morning, Jason.
In fact, the real gold in this article isn't in the headline remotely about Russia no longer requesting Ukraine be denazified as part of the ceasefire talks.
We're going to cut straight down now to what the real meat of this story is.
And this is part of the draft agreement that is presently under consideration.
Principally three objects here.
The first is that Ukraine would refrain from developing nuclear weapons.
Well, that we know.
That it would refrain from hosting foreign military bases.
Well, that we know.
And that it would abandon its pursuit of NATO membership.
That we know.
In exchange for that, what is on the table is an agreement with wording close to NATO's Article 5, where it basically says The NATO allies will come to the defence and will guarantee the security of Ukraine without Ukraine being a formerly a member of NATO.
The key difference here is that there won't be NATO troops or missiles or installations on Ukraine territory.
And that, I think, is what has upset Vladimir Putin right from the beginning.
And Russia has thrown in, and how this isn't the headline, I don't know, Russia has thrown in to the agreement here, apparently the green light for eventual membership in EU.
And you're absolutely right, Steve.
What this is really about now at this point is who gets to be Mr. 10% in the rebuilding of Ukraine.
And Putin and his oligarchs are taking a step back, they're taking a step back and they say, okay, okay Vladimir, go for it. So that is where we are today.
And by the way, I have to say, I have to close these remarks by paying tribute to Erdogan, who's done a very good job here in Turkey.
He's actually thrown a bit of light on the fifth round of talks this time by inviting Abrahamovic, the Russian oligarch.
Which is what most of the press seem to be concentrating on, rather than the meat of the negotiations.
But I think Turkey's done a pretty good job so far.
steve bannon
Because they're all cutting side deals.
And when you have Erdogan giving you a guarantee, it's so corrupt.
I want everyone in the audience and everybody, every conservative, to say these guys are all like Paul Revere and John Adams and these are all yeoman Democrats.
No.
This is power politics personified.
The Ukrainian people lives were treated just like the deplorables.
They were expendable.
They were expendable.
This is as callous, as cynical, this is power politics of a whole group of oligarchs.
And guys that want to be in business with the oligarchs and take their spiff.
We're going to take a short break and we'll be back.
I know Jason Miller's got a lot to say about this.
We're going to go to the border.
Kobach's going to talk to you about the scale.
Chris Kobach has got the best handle on the scale of the invasion that's coming across.
The top immigration guy in the country.
Then we're going to go actually to the border.
We got Auden, we got Berquam down there, a couple of sheriffs.
This is the border.
Joe Biden, we don't need you at the Ukraine-Poland border.
That deal's already cut, right?
We need you down here.
Last thing I say, denazification.
I think because they say they took care of the Azov Brigade in Eastern Ukraine.
The whole thing's so cynical.
It's such a sick joke.
Be back in the worm in a moment.

War Room.
Pandemic.
With Stephen K. Bannon.
The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide.
War Room.
Pandemic.
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
steve bannon
Okay, welcome back.
I'm going to do a My Pillow in a second, but I want to go to Ben Harnwell.
Ben, you're going to do a live hit, as you do every day, right after the end of War Room.
So people can jump there, hit it, and then it goes to the Michelle Bachmann situation, or the globalist rising.
You've got to watch the five hours a day, and it's going to be amazing.
Ben, your social media, what is it?
How do people get to you?
ben harnwell
I'll be doing the live stream on, it'll be Getta, my profile, it's my surname, at Harnwell.
I've capped it at five minutes.
I did my first one yesterday, Steve, and I have to say that the guys on Getter are so fighting and so thirsty, so encouraging.
I spent hours going through all the messages that came in.
Everyone was saying, please do one every day, so I will do.
Five minutes, as soon as the warm-up is finished, I'll be doing the live stream straight away.
So thanks, obviously, to Jason Miller for putting this great platform together.
It's absolutely perfect.
steve bannon
I need everybody on Getter, and here's why.
You're going to meet people from all over the world.
This revolt is a global revolt against the globalists, and it is pretty amazing.
You will see people.
You get an account.
You're going to start making contacts and relationships with people you never thought you'd realize.
That's the great power of this.
It is a platform for this movement.
Ben, how did it get to you?
At Harnwell, how did it get to your Getter account?
ben harnwell
It's at Hanra.
That's it.
Get to at Hanra.
And by the way, I close with this quick observation, Steve, because you started off the segment saying how we called it on the war room by saying that Turkey is going to be a key player.
All I want to say is this, right?
I spent 20 years working in politics in Parliament.
I even did a stint working as a special adviser to a prime minister.
I did not know how to read a newspaper until I started working for you, Steve.
And the reason we were able to call this on Turkey, it's simply, as you always say, the War Room is about engagement.
And everything that you're guiding us on the team with, you push this out and you give all the elements so that people can concentrate on the signal and not the noise.
And that's all I did.
In order to call Turkey five weeks ago, all I did is exactly what you're saying.
It's just concentrating on the details that are important.
So, thanks.
steve bannon
Okay, see you at noon today.
Great job.
So I don't want to sound like I'm too cynical, but I am.
When you've got Abramovich, when he's like the good guy, this kind of cruise, his yacht's bigger than what Churchill put in at Gallipoli, through the Dardanelles, right?
This is so corrupt and so sick and so cynical, it's disgusting.
And this is just power politics.
Remember, Ukraine's the fourth most corrupt country on the face of the earth and I want you to absorb that for a second.
And Russia's the seventh most corrupt.
Okay?
Absorb that they're the fourth most corrupt.
Pull a map out right now.
Look around the world.
Look at some of those countries and think that this is the fourth most corrupt.
It's the poorest nation in Europe.
The reason is, and it's the Kansas.
I'm going to bring Kovac in a second from Kansas.
Ukraine's the Kansas of Europe.
And people don't have any money.
Why is that?
The oligarchs run the deal.
jason miller
Well, it's even worse than that.
I mean when we talk about Abramovich specifically, I mean sending him in to help lead these peace talks, that's like sending Hunter Biden in to lead a DEA raid.
Just to be clear on this.
The only purpose of them doing this is, again, Russia needs Abramovich to have his place in the West again.
I guess the Chelsea football team might not come back, but they need him being one of Putin's kind of main power players outside in the West doing all this.
Now, all that being said, you're completely right on the cynicism and your skepticism with regard to this.
Two things can be true at the same time here, from the fact that this, getting these guys to the table, coming up with some solution that leads to less Ukrainians being killed, is what Biden should have been doing.
That's what we said from day one.
steve bannon
De-escalate.
jason miller
De-escalate.
There is no such thing.
steve bannon
De-conflict.
De-escalate, de-conflict, and get them to the table.
jason miller
There is no such thing.
steve bannon
This is the outline of what the deal is always going to be.
jason miller
Exactly.
There's no such thing as a Ukraine win here.
All there's going to be is how badly they lose.
It's OK.
Here's your win, Zelensky, and the rest of the guys, you get to live.
That's your win.
unidentified
Hold it.
steve bannon
And here's the funny thing.
You're going to get maybe EU membership.
Write this down.
The only reason they're getting EU membership is so they can steal more.
So the oligarchs and now the Russian oligarchs can get their hands in the till.
It's going to be easier to cut deals.
This is power politics by the worst people on earth.
Erdogan's like the good guy.
He's the peacemaker.
Give me a break.
It's absurd on the face of it.
jason miller
Do you think any of our allies, whether it be in the deplorables in France or Germany or other EU countries, want to start sending money then off to Ukraine as well?
I mean, the whole EU thing, I don't know how it even stays together and exists.
People are so frustrated, so fired up about it.
That's all they were talking about in France.
steve bannon
That's what the debate was the other day.
jason miller
That's what the debate was around.
steve bannon
That's what got us providing that great platform.
Let's go, let's go.
I've got to talk about something important.
You know, Morning Mika and quite frankly Fox News, they're all obsessed.
It's a fetish now.
The sovereignty, territorial integrity and self-determination of the Ukrainian people in the nation of Ukraine.
You're seeing that they hate nationalism except when it's in Ukraine.
So I'm going to go to where Joe Biden should go is the border, not the border of Poland-Ukraine.
To be mumbling around there and whining around there, telling the 82nd Airborne they're going to be going in, talking about regime change against Putin.
What you're trying to do with taking down their central bank, taking down their ruble.
Oh, Cortez is going to come on.
The ruble's up.
unidentified
Why?
steve bannon
Guess what?
They can punch back.
When you're taking their energy and they come up and say, hey, how about this?
You're going to pay for us in rubles.
jason miller
By the way, Thursday.
steve bannon
They can punch back!
jason miller
Thursday, they're rolling out their plan about how you can buy oil from Russia in the ruble.
So that's coming out Thursday.
That's part of all these moving pieces.
Yeah, I mean, Putin, of course, he's smiling right now.
Oh, you want us to move back a couple of troops from Kiev?
That's when, guess what comes Thursday?
You can buy oil in the ruble.
steve bannon
How do you get the ruble right now?
Because it's not like the dollar, it's everywhere.
Oh, by the way, just puts a six trillion dollar spending bill, but he's going to raise taxes on the wealthy.
What's going to happen is the $6 trillion.
We'll see where the taxes come from, right?
And who's paying them, besides the middle class and the working class.
That's going to be another $2 trillion deficit that you've got to print money to do.
That impoverishment makes you a Russian serf.
People under 40 are Russian serfs.
This is just going to continue.
And Biden, how do you get the rubles?
Because there's no rubles around.
There's not a prime reserve currency.
You've got to buy Russian bonds.
This is sick.
It's disgusting.
And I'm so proud that we called this from day one.
Okay?
No, this is not Paul Revere and Zelensky.
Anybody that bought in and gave that guy a standing ovation, give me a break.
When you see these deals get cut and who's cut in and the guys are controlling, the oligarchs that control Ukraine, they're cutting the deal.
It's disgusting.
The dead and the wounded and the cities destroyed and all of it for money and power, not for freedom of the Ukrainian people.
Let's go to Chris Kobach.
Chris, can you, I had to get you on, we've had Todd Bensman.
You know this better than anybody.
You know, you should have been DHS under Trump.
That's a topic for a different day.
The invasion on the southern border when Title 42 comes off.
Can you walk our audience through the scale of this thing?
kris kobach
Yeah, sure.
Let me throw a bunch of numbers at you, Steve.
So first of all, In calendar year 2021, Biden signaled to the world that the United States was wide open.
He did this by stopping wall construction, by ending the remain in Mexico policy, and also by basically taking the teeth out of ice, forcing ice to sit on its hands in violation of federal law, where federal law said you have to deport certain people.
He issued a series of memorandums saying, no, you cannot deport those individuals unless you get special approval from your supervisors, which never happens.
As a result, Calendar year 2021 saw approximately 2 million border apprehensions.
That is triple what we saw the previous calendar year.
Triple!
It had a definite impact.
Now, one of the things that Biden did leave in place, about the only good thing that he left in place from the Trump administration, was Title 42 expulsions.
Title 42 is not the Immigration Enforcement Act, that's in Title 18 of the federal code, but Title 42 It has to do with health policy and it authorizes the president to prohibit the introduction of persons into the United States in order to stop the spread of a contagious disease, i.e.
COVID-19.
Trump put that in place in March of 2020.
Biden allowed the border patrol to keep that in place.
And the border patrol actually used that to a significant, to a great extent in 2021.
They averaged about 97,000 expulsions per month in 2021.
Under Biden.
So you get 200,000 coming in, maybe 180,000 coming in.
Approximately half were actually turned back using Title 42.
Now that's good, but it's also bad.
The other half came in and they will never show up in immigration court.
They will disappear into the fabric of society.
But at least the Border Patrol had Title 42 authority.
Now the left is protesting probably right as we speak in Washington, D.C.
They've been holding these daily protests.
And the left members of Congress and the Democrat side are pushing hard against Biden to get rid of Title 42 expulsions.
If that happens, Katie, bar the door.
It is going to be horrific because that will send an immediate signal to all of these sending countries.
Come on in.
You heard about some people getting turned back with Title 42.
That's not going to happen anymore.
Let me put it this way, Steve.
Think of the metaphor like this right now.
The United States under Biden has been playing defense in a football game without a defensive backfield.
No, no linebackers, no defensive backs, no safeties.
All you have to do is get past our border patrol, which is the defensive line, get about 20 miles into the United States, not even that, 10 miles into the United States, and you are home free.
The chances of you ever getting removed from the United States are basically zero.
Now what Biden is doing is thinking about taking our already weak defensive line, the only thing we have, which was already weakened because he took away Remain in Mexico.
And now he's going to cut that defensive line in half by taking away Title 42.
It will be a disaster.
It'll make 2021 look like a really good immigration enforcement year.
steve bannon
Chris, before we go to break and we actually hang over, is that Todd Benzman is saying that he thinks in April and May before the desert heats up, you could have 300,000, 400,000 per month.
Right now we've got 150,000 to 175,000 some months over 200,000.
What are your thoughts on the scale of this?
We've got about 30 seconds.
Yeah, I think probably we'll see at least a 50% increase.
kris kobach
that in some months over 200,000. What are your thoughts on the scale of this? You've got about 30 seconds. Yeah, I think probably we'll see at least a 50% increase. So those 200,000 months we saw in June last year, I think are going to be 300,000 months. I don't It's hard to predict, but I would say we should certainly expect to see the first 300,000 plus apprehensions in U.S.
history happening if Title 42 is taken out.
One other thing, Steve.
So the Biden administration had been delaying and delaying and issuing its fiscal year 2020 report for ICE, fiscal year 2021.
They finally issued it three months late, just a few weeks ago.
And the number of removals is a third of what it was the previous year.
So basically ICE has has been taken away.
Two-thirds of its authority to remove people has been taken away.
They're barely just getting a, you know, very small number of removals executed.
It's horrific.
steve bannon
Chris, we're going to take a short commercial break.
Kovacs on a journey.
We're also going to go to the border with Ben Burquham.
Next.

And of course, the armor-piercing shell that is Mike Lindell.
You got sheets as low as $39.99, up to 60% off.
And of course, pillows as low as $19.99.
Go check it out.
You need to have a great night's sleep.
As much as we work around here, around the clock in the War Room, you've got to have a great night's sleep.
Okay, real quickly.
Kobach, you're the best, and you get law degrees from everywhere, every important place, including, I think, Oxford.
It is what you've seen at the border.
And let's leave the partisan politics out for a second.
From a legal perspective, do you think that there's grounds to impeach Joe Biden after we have the sweeping victory in November next year for initiating and exacerbating the invasion of the United States on the southern border, Chris Kobach?
kris kobach
Yes, I do think it's grounds for impeachment.
I would frame it slightly differently.
So the Constitution requires high crimes and misdemeanors, high crimes or misdemeanors to impeach a president.
I would say that because this president has ordered ICE officers to break federal law.
Federal law at 8 U.S.C.
1225, 1226, and 1231 says that ICE shall remove certain individuals.
Joe Biden has ordered ICE officers to break the law and not do what the law tells them to do.
So you have a president ordering executive officials to break the law.
I think that certainly qualifies as a high crime and that would be grounds for impeachment.
steve bannon
Jason Miller.
jason miller
I think Kobach is exactly right.
He's a very smart guy.
I think the way he laid it out was spot on.
How Joe Biden can actually tell ICE officers to ignore the law.
I tell you, here's the only reason why this hasn't blown up more, except for the fact the media wants to talk about COVID and Ukraine.
We haven't had that, fortunately yet, although we know that there are over a million here just over this last year, that Kate Steinle-type moment.
That is where I think this will explode and become a bigger deal.
We're fortunate that we've not had a tragedy like that.
steve bannon
What about when you get 300,000 people and 400,000 people in April at the International Bridge and every place like that?
The optics of that?
jason miller
It's going to be terrible.
And again, too, the fact that so many are coming across that we don't know.
Do they have COVID?
Do they have other diseases?
Are they rapists, murderers?
Who's sneaking across here?
The fact these are unvetted people really concerns me.
steve bannon
Colbeck, real quickly, I just want to do the math.
Normandy invasion every month, 158,000 people.
They've stayed two million, I guess, roughly, round up.
How many of those, just be simple, make it simple for me, how many of those people roughly have stayed in the United States, sir?
Roughly?
kris kobach
Approximately half.
And they've been given a slip of paper.
They used to be, they were given a, you shall remove in court, a notice to appear.
You shall appear in court and may possibly be removed.
Now, in many parts of the world, they're not even being given that slip of paper.
They're being given a piece of paper that says, hey, we'd like you to show up and maybe get ordered to appear in court.
And of course, according to ICE's own figures, they're not showing up.
So they are basically being told, welcome, come on in.
And yeah, we're never going to deport you.
steve bannon
All the left-wing media that watches, make sure you understand this.
We're driving towards an impeachment.
Okay?
This is not payback.
Not payback.
Okay?
We're better than that.
It's not payback.
This is not payback.
jason miller
Steve, is Madeline on vacation?
steve bannon
I don't know.
Is she the head of marketing for the War Room?
jason miller
No, no, no.
steve bannon
Madeline Peltz?
Yeah, Madeline Peltz.
She's the head of marketing for the War Room.
jason miller
Yeah, from over at Media Matters.
Yeah, Media Matters.
steve bannon
Hey, Madeline.
jason miller
Hey, girl.
steve bannon
You know, she had an illness.
We did pray for her.
We love Madeline.
She's head of marketing.
jason miller
But she's back and in full.
steve bannon
She's back.
I'm not sure she's full.
She's got some grundoons that do their stuff, but she's keeping an eye on us.
jason miller
I assume she must be on vacation.
steve bannon
No, no.
I think she had an illness.
jason miller
Oh, I'm sorry, Madeline.
steve bannon
I did not realize there was an illness.
No, no, no.
We did a prayer for her.
jason miller
Okay.
We need her back.
steve bannon
We love Madeline.
Madeline's on it.
Cortez, real quickly because we're going to go to the southern border.
Burquam's got one of the deputies, one of the sheriffs down there, one of the constables.
Do you believe, Steve Cortez, given all your analysis of the invasion of the border, do you think that there's grounds to impeach Joe Biden on the activity of the invasion of the southern border, sir?
steve cortes
Oh, 100%.
Look, the first and foremost job of government at any level, and particularly the head of the national government, the President, is to protect the sovereignty, the safety, the security of the United States.
He has been totally, intentionally derelict in that duty, and he is absolutely subject to impeachment on these grounds, on a very valid impeachment, not the kind of politicized nonsense shams that were perpetrated against President Trump.
And I implore the deplorables out there, as well as America First candidates, Don't major in the minors.
Focus on what matters.
It's the two I's.
Immigration and inflation.
Those are the issues for the elections this fall.
steve bannon
I want to go to Ben Berquam now.
Ben, you guys have been doing great coverage.
Eagle Pass, La Jolla, Texas.
You've been up and down the Rio Grande Valley.
Tell us where you are today.
We have a very special guest.
I'm going to toss the ball to you.
Do our interview.
ben bergquam
Thank you, sir.
Yeah, Steve, we're back here in Eagle Pass, Texas.
We've been covering this the last couple days and saw groups yesterday.
The devastation that this is causing, the garbage and everything else that's coming across the border, literal garbage, just trashing the American side of the border.
And right behind us, we have about 15 more that have just shown up.
We were here for about a half an hour before Border Patrol was even able to arrive because they're so overwhelmed here.
And I have Deputy Constable, Maverick County Deputy Constable Bowles here with me.
Deputy Bowles, what is it like?
So this is not what you're supposed to be doing.
This is not your primary function.
What is it as a constable that this is taking you away from?
unidentified
My primary function is law enforcement within my area, within my precinct, which is Precinct 4 here in Maverick County.
Part of Precinct 4 is, part of my area is along the river here.
It's part of the county as well.
It's also happens to be an international border, you know, the state of Texas also us with Mexico and We're just being overwhelmed with the number of people coming across We're having issues within the local communities within the neighborhoods people constantly calling us Our community members saying hey, I've got people coming into my yards, you know people getting into unoccupied homes people getting to houses we're having issues of
Human smuggling operations, people having stash houses that we get tips on constantly.
We just raided one over the weekend where we found a large group of, you know, undocumented persons.
And it's causing a lot of, it's several issues.
One, we've got an environmental issue.
There's a lot of trash up and down along the border that's being left behind.
Number two, it's a humanitarian issue.
We have the people that are coming across.
They're risking their lives.
Just yesterday, there were two small children that almost drowned here.
Thank goodness they did it.
Just last week, I was posted out here.
We had a deceased person.
You know, unfortunate.
I mean, I don't mean to be gruesome about it, but this is happening every day.
Every day, there's people coming across and there's people not making it.
They're dying, literally.
They're coming across, they're getting hurt, they're getting injured.
We're having to attend to them.
Some of them are malnourished, some of them are dehydrated.
They're coming from very long distances, and the stories I'm getting from them is they're coming up through Mexico, and unfortunately a lot of them, they're being treated very badly by Mexican authorities.
They're literally being extorted by Mexican authorities.
And they come here and they're so happy to come here, but it's because they feel like they're going to get a fair shake here.
And I understand, you know, we're all human beings and, you know, we're the United States of America.
You know, we're a free country.
But we have laws, and people have to abide by the laws.
And it seems like we've, for the past year, two years, we've just had an open door for people to come in.
And it's creating all sorts of different issues.
And it's creating a huge burden on law enforcement, on us.
Because we're getting called constantly.
90% of my focus right now is doing this.
And it's taking away from my basic law enforcement function, which is my primary duty.
And we don't have the resources.
You know, Border Patrol is doing their part.
You know, there are our federal law enforcement brothers and sisters.
The state is out here trying to do their part, but there's only so many of us.
And we're trying at the same time to provide service to our communities and trying to help them out.
And, I mean, we're human beings as well.
You know, I see children coming across.
I'm a parent.
I have two sons, and it hurts me.
Just last week, there were two little girls that came across on the company, and they came across in the morning.
They were cold.
They were wet.
They're terrified.
They don't have their parents with them.
I mean, it's very sad.
And I basically had to stay with them and safeguard them.
Because who knows what's happened to them?
Who knows what they've experienced traveling all the way?
They were from Guatemala and they came up the whole way, you know, them telling me they were by themselves.
So what they experienced is going to affect them for the rest of their lives.
And this is, this is just, you know, it's a, it's terrible what's happening.
ben bergquam
Let me ask you, and that's not even getting into the cartels that we're enriching and emboldening through this whole process, but what happens when Title 42 goes away?
unidentified
When Title 42 goes away, just to give you an example, the intel, the word that we've been getting is local law enforcement.
We don't get a lot, but there's about roughly about 7,000 people in the sister city of Eagle Pass in Piedras Negras waiting to cross right now.
Coming up from the southern border of Mexico, there's that 150-170,000 group caravan that's coming up, and they're crossing daily.
Here, you know, I'm posted here because this is a dangerous crossing.
We've had to do water rescues, the Border Patrol getting in there, the National Guard is doing an excellent job.
They're doing their best, and they've had to rescue people out of the water.
We've had to help them out of the water.
And all these people coming through after come April 1st, I mean, it's going to get out of hand.
It's really, really going to get out of hand.
Border Patrol, they're stretched to their limits, you know, and they know it too as well.
But we're just trying to do our best, that's all.
But it's going to be like a floodgate opening.
And you're going to see people coming across.
Right now we're averaging last week about maybe 25 to 50 an hour coming across.
You know, several hundred in the 8 to 10 hours that I'm down here.
And this is just one area.
It's not just here.
It's all up and down the border.
It's everywhere.
And that's not to mention others, the ones that are not getting caught or the ones not turning themselves in, which unfortunately they have criminal histories and that's why they don't want to turn themselves in.
So that's another issue altogether.
But Title 42, if they do away with it, it's going to open a floodgate and it's going to get a lot worse.
We're going to be seeing more people crossing.
Unfortunately, we're probably going to see People getting hurt.
Hopefully we won't be seeing many people lose their lives trying to cross the border, but it's going to happen.
It's a reality.
steve bannon
Ben, I want to make sure that... No, I want to make sure... Look, nothing more powerful than that.
I want to thank the Deputy Constable.
Can you please give your social media so people can follow you all day?
Ben Berquam, Real America's Voice in Eagle Pass, Texas.
This human tragedy.
ben bergquam
Yes, sir.
steve bannon
And I want to thank the Deputy Constable.
What's your social media?
ben bergquam
Americasvoice.news, FrontlineAmerica.com, and then I'm doing lives on Getter throughout the day, and it's at Ben Burquam.
steve bannon
So go to Getter, get Burquam, at Ben Burquam.
You've got to watch this.
There'll be other interviews you're doing.
Thank the constable for giving us the truth.
ben bergquam
He hears you, sir.
Yes, sir.
unidentified
Thank you, sir.
Thank you very much, and thank you for reporting this.
I mean, nobody is reporting on this, and this is what's happening to us here on the border every day, all day, all day long, all day, all night.
Not just here, everywhere along the border here in Texas.
steve bannon
Thank you, sir.
Honored to have you on here.
Cortez, Kobach, Miller, this is a disgrace.
This is a disgrace that our country is allowing this to happen.
And we're all complicit in this.
You're a combatant in the economic war against the Russian people.
We're all complicit.
We have the ability to throw these bums out that are doing this.
This is a disgrace.
The human tragedy on a scale incomprehensible for the greatest country on earth to allow this to happen is a disgrace.
And it will always be remembered.
And so we're going to be on the right side of the football on this thing.
Elections have consequences.
Stolen elections have catastrophic consequences.
This is an illegitimate regime.
I don't care if Jamie Raskin and Benny Thompson don't like it.
My focus in life is to take this down and destroy it because you people are pure evil.
And you can see it in the southern border of this country.
And to think about the constable can't even protect the people, the hard-working Hispanic blue-collar people down there.
The crime's out of control.
You've turned it over to the cartels.
Think about what those little girls went through coming up from Guatemala by themselves.
Just think about it for a second.
This is revolting.
unidentified
We'll be back in a moment.
Conservatives have been helpless to do anything about it, until now.
Join Getter, the social media platform that supports free speech and opposes cancel culture.
On Getter, you can express your political beliefs without fear of Silicon Valley liberals coming after you.
Getter is led by former Trump advisor and War Room co-host Jason Miller, who saw what Big Tech did to President Trump and decided to fight back.
Getter is the fastest growing social media platform in history, with millions of users, including prominent conservatives like Mike Pompeo, Steve Cortez, and Steve Bannon.
Join Getter.
It's in the App Store, the Google Play Store, and at getter.com.
Longer posts, longer videos, sharper and clearer pictures.
And unlike the Silicon Valley oligarchs, Getter will never sell your data.
Send a message today.
Join Getter.
It's time to cancel, cancel culture.
steve bannon
Okay, we've got the CEO of Getter.
Getter ought to just be up and down the border.
I mean, you're providing a platform everywhere.
You've done amazing coverage, right?
And Miles has got the new federal states over there right on the border of Ukraine and Poland helping people.
We're bringing them in on Getter.
You've got Burquam down there doing Getter.
This thing's going to be huge.
It's an invasion of 300,000 or 400,000 people in April and May.
jason miller
Well, that's what I was going to say, that you have a deputy constable in Maverick County, Texas, who's saying that you have this caravan coming up of 150, 170,000 people.
This is not Breitbart.
This is not Steve Bannon's War Room.
This is not Gateway Pundit.
This is a deputy constable saying 150,000 people.
Thousand person caravan is coming up.
Is this not a national security threat?
Am I missing something here?
steve bannon
The army that landed on Adidas in Normandy was 156,000 troops.
Canadian, British, and American.
Total.
That's the landing.
That's D-Day landing.
156,000.
That's what you're going to get coming up right now.
jason miller
And that's what we're marching up, and we saw that poor deputy constable there saying what limited resources they have.
You have Joe Biden saying ICE agents, turn a blind eye.
How is this not a massive, massive crisis?
steve bannon
So how does Getter, how does Getter, you only get a few minutes and then you get a bounce.
How does Getter, how does Getter take this to the next level?
jason miller
So number one, everyone follow at Ben Bergquam on Getter.
Every day he does his noon streams, his live streams that he has on there.
So we're going to make sure that we're pushing those.
I think we're going to also make sure we get some additional people down there to cover things, have some really good journalists, some independent journalists are on the platform.
But his starting point, follow Ben at Ben Bergquam.
He's great on Getter.
He engages, interacts with people all the time.
One quick thing, Steve, I want to say, great article today in Le Monde, the largest newspaper in France, essentially the New York Times.
So just so everyone's saying, wait a minute, why are you hyping up Le Monde?
They're not exactly the friendliest.
But an excellent article on Getter today, talking about how we're taking over by storm.
It talks about how we've made numerous trips there.
We're building up.
We have Eric Zemore on the platform.
We have Jordan Bardla, who runs the Raleigh National Party.
He's on the platform.
Many people say he's the future, or Marion Marchal is the future.
One thing I want to make a quick point.
Many of the Financial Times, kind of the Times of London types.
steve bannon
Many people are saying?
jason miller
Many people are saying that Macron's just going to cruise to a re-election.
And now it's about who's the next generation of leaders.
Not so fast, and I'm going to tell you the reason why.
Polling is out just yesterday, showing that upwards of a third of all people in France aren't planning on showing up to actually vote.
That's where you start to get polling.
steve bannon
So the denominator really changes?
jason miller
The denominator changes.
So here's the thing, whether it's Zamore, whether it's Le Pen, I tell you, as we start shifting away from Russia and it gets back to re-migration, which is the big issue in France right now, that's front page.
steve bannon
This is why they're doing the Ukraine.
This is why Ukraine's non-stop on MSNBC.
They don't want to talk about the southern border of the United States.
unidentified
Exactly.
steve bannon
This is what kills Zamora.
Zamora was going to win this thing and all of a sudden Macron becomes like the great peacemaker, right?
Next thing you know, this is how they roll.
This is how they roll.
jason miller
So once this moves away from Russia and Ukraine, this gets back to domestic French politics.
I tell you, April 10th is the first round.
steve bannon
The key is who makes it on the right, who makes the runoff.
jason miller
So right now, if you're looking at it today, the polling would show you that it's going to be Le Pen.
steve bannon
She'll never beat, I love Le Pen, but she's not going to beat.
At 1-on-1 she's not going to beat McCrone, with the world situation where it is right now.
jason miller
They're saying Zamora's crowd on Sunday was between 50,000 and 70,000 people.
When you have crowds like that, there's only one other guy I know who ran who had crowds like that, and the media didn't get his polling right either.
steve bannon
Ghetto was there the other night.
Why did they give him smack talk about the Georgia crowd being small?
First, it was freezing cold.
It looked plenty big to me.
It looked huge.
They were pretty enthusiastic.
jason miller
Yeah, and I'll tell you, that was actually President Trump's third highest getter participation for a rally.
steve bannon
700,000, wasn't it?
jason miller
A little bit.
The one was about 900, 700, this was 500, so this was number three.
Considerably up from his last couple of rallies.
I tell you, around the country and people tuning in on getter, people are more fired up for Trump than ever, especially the way he's coming on these Georgia races.
They're tuned in.
Here's the deal.
You can't be, I love the President, everyone knows that, you can't be an hour late when people have been there since 2 in the afternoon and it's 30 degrees.
You're going to have a couple of people say, you know what, I'm just going to stay at home, get a six pack and watch it, order a pizza, which we may or may not have done at our house.
So, but that doesn't mean people aren't tuning in, they are.
Over half a million, almost 600,000 people watched it on Getter.
steve bannon
Yeah, we had huge numbers.
So what about, what's your Getter handle?
jason miller
At Jason Miller in D.C.
steve bannon
If people want help on Getter, how do they get there?
Signing up, all that?
jason miller
So I would say tag at support, but just tag at Jason Miller in D.C.
Everybody else does it, so you may as well just pile on.
steve bannon
Cortez, I got a couple minutes here.
Real quickly, your assessment of the Constable, and I gotta tell you, you got senators, you got congressmen, you got all these bigwigs around, that was one of the most powerful things I've heard in so long.
steve cortes
Steve Cortez.
...brave men and women in uniform who are doing the very hard work of trying to guard America's front door, and he is certainly one of them.
What was compelling to me, an aspect frankly I hadn't thought of, is him saying that he is... Hey Steve, Steve, we got a technical problem.
steve bannon
We're going to have to come back.
It's not going out like that.
steve cortes
It's not going out?
steve bannon
No.
Okay, so go ahead, Cortez.
Keep answering.
I'm sorry.
steve cortes
I was going to say, what was really compelling and foreboding to me was to hear him talk about how he has to neglect his normal duties of just law enforcement, regular, typical, day-to-day law enforcement in his community because of this crisis that has been forced upon him at the border.
You know, and earlier, Steve, you mentioned the grounds for a very legitimate, logical, and legal impeachment of Biden over this border issue.
I'll tell you another part of that impeachment, which it should be part of the prosecution of Joe Biden, should be the way that he has mistreated and maligned those brave law enforcement officers, particularly those bad hombres on horseback.
who were doing their best and following procedures to try to repel trespassers who were breaking and entering into this country. They were not whipping anyone.
That was a complete media myth. That was a narrative and it was pushed and propagated by their boss, by President Biden, by Joe Biden.
I don't, I shouldn't call him President Biden because he's illegitimate, but by Joe Biden.
That is a despicable act for anybody who sits in that office to vilify those brave officers.
steve bannon
Jump in, you got 30 seconds.
jason miller
And Debbie from Getter, you wanted to hear action, action, action?
Because no one had said it today.
Action, action, action.
Can we get the great ones saying it?
steve bannon
Action, action, action.
Come on, Debbie.
Hang in there.
Yesterday, actually, somebody, I think, came to us on Getter and said they were looking forward to being the future X-Mas' banner.
Watch it now.
Let's calm down.
Let's calm down there.
unidentified
Clearly, that was a bot, right?
steve bannon
Cortez is going to hang.
We've got Don Jr.
next in his new site.
