Speaker Time Text
rachel maddow
The New York Times posted this story about how the Trump folks, including at least one Trump lawyer, John Eastman, are continuing, even now, in their efforts to try to get various states to retroactively decertify the results of the 2020 presidential election in order to get Trump declared the winner of that election instead, in order to get him reinstated into the White House now.
This is not old news.
This is not a rerun.
Apparently they are still working on this now!
Still!
In Wisconsin, in Arizona, in Georgia, in Michigan.
They're trying to get the Electoral College tally in each of those states decertified.
Trump himself is reportedly encouraging it, while of course insisting that everybody in Republican politics has to repeat his claims that the election wasn't valid and he should rightfully still be in the White House.
Him wanting that is one thing.
The fact that Republicans, almost without exception, really are going along with it is another.
As noted in the Times tonight, quote, elected Republicans have almost uniformly embraced Trump's claims that the vote was stolen.
And while that is inherently a backward looking thing toward the 2020 election, it's now 2022, it does sort of tell you how Republicans are wired now when it comes to whether or not they're going to accept election results in the future.
And therefore, whether we're still governing ourselves as Americans, as if we are a democracy.
Quote, Democrats and some Republicans have raised deep concerns about the impact of the ongoing decertification efforts.
They warn of unintended consequences, including the potential to incite violence of the sort that erupted on January 6th, when a mob of Mr. Trump's supporters stormed the Capitol, convinced that he could still be declared the winner of the 2020 election.
Legal experts worry that the focus on decertifying the last election could pave the way for more aggressive and earlier legislative intervention the next time around.
J. Michael Luddick, a leading conservative lawyer, a former U.S.
Appeals Court judge for whom John Eastman clerked, and whom President George W. Bush considered as a nominee to be Chief Justice of the United States, tells the Times tonight, quote, At the moment, there is no other way to say it.
This is the clearest and most present danger to our democracy.
Trump and his supporters in Congress and in the states are preparing now to lay the groundwork to overturn the election in 2024, where Trump or his designee To lose the vote for the presidency.
Were Trump or his designee to lose the vote for the presidency, not just Trump, but his supporters in Congress and his supporters in the states are preparing now, laying the groundwork now, to overturn those election results.
So, I mean, we'll have the midterms this year, and then for the next election, either Trump is going to be the Republican Party nominee or somebody with his blessing will.
And if that person loses, the Republicans are effectively already communicating that they will consider the results of that election to be invalid.
They will consider that election to not count.
And they are preparing for that eventuality now.
mika brzezinski
Interesting.
So speaking of the Biden administration, they would so much like to be looking at domestic issues and talking about kitchen table issues.
I think President Biden's headed to New Hampshire today.
But it's kind of hard with these images coming in from Ukraine.
I think people are pretty distracted on a number of levels.
jonathan lemire
Yes, I have a new story about this exact conundrum the White House is in that went out today.
That, of course, for the last two months now, the situation in Europe has been front of mind.
And that's not going to change.
But the White House, there's a recognition they also need to pivot back towards some more domestic issues.
that they need to put the president back on the road.
He hasn't been able to travel much domestically for a while because of the war.
He was out a couple times last week.
He's going to New Hampshire today, the Pacific Northwest later in the week, to understand, to sort of convey to Americans that he understands what they're going through, inflation, rising gas prices, that he understands their pain and is trying to help.
Now, some of these forces are, of course, out of his control.
These are global issues.
But he's trying to say, look, we're doing what we can at home and we're also, the message is to the White House, look what we've already done for you.
And today in particular will be about touting the improvements that are coming because of that bipartisan infrastructure deal that was signed at the end of last year, the COVID relief bill that also was put into law, trying to say to Americans, hey, this is what we've done, and trying to give Democrats something positive to point to ahead of the midterms.
And that's what's shadowing all of this, is we're now just six or so months away.
The president and Democrats' poll number is not very high.
willie geist
And the White House knows when a voter goes into that box to vote, they're not going to say, President Biden's doing a good job with Ukraine.
They're going to say my gas is $4.25 a gallon.
And the White House says, look, unemployment is historically low.
There are more jobs than we can hope to fill right now.
But when things cost that much, people are going to vote against you.
And it's showing up in his polling.
jonathan lemire
Most economic indicators show a pretty strong economy and a remarkable comeback from the depths of the pandemic.
That said, inflation is an essential issue on Americans' minds, right?
steve bannon
Okay, spin and spin and spin and spin and show you how they are panicked by the decertification movement, the 3 November movement, and we are pushing forward and there'll be major announcements this week about decertification.
It's page one, that article they're talking about, Trump allies keep up fight to nullify vote.
Right there, page one of the elite's paper of record, the New York Times, okay?
And it's a very detailed article.
We've got it up in all the live chats.
We're going to push it out on all the platforms.
Remember, you've got to read the New York Times because you have to, quote, know thy enemy, unquote.
And they're in absolute panic mode.
And they do a pretty good job of outlining the decertification movement that continues to press on because Joe Biden's illegitimate, and that's one of the principal reasons his numbers are at historic lows, no matter how they spin it.
And think about it, the only positive thing they have in there is where the collaborationist Republicans bailed them out on this infrastructure bill, which should have never happened.
Absolutely should never have happened.
No Republican should have supported that.
Anybody that did it is a collaborationist, and it will be remembered, okay?
The only thing they can try to tout, which is a joke in itself, But that's it.
So also yesterday, and I've talked about this yesterday, there were four articles in a row about the whole movement to make sure that we secure that never again can this election be stolen like it was in 2020.
So we don't have to go through the whole process of going back and doing these full forensic audits and then go through and do this whole mess on the decertification, which we're doing because it's our civic obligation to do that.
It's our civic obligation.
Um, that we've got to make sure that we control these election boards and that we have the poll workers inside to make sure that never again can we have things like, you know, the Zuckerberg and the rigged movie and all that, right?
You don't have to go through this nonsense anymore.
We stop it at the beginning.
And one way to do that is make sure we control election boards.
They're absolutely freaked out at that.
They put $80 million in a panic move.
This story in Politico yesterday, another story in The Hill about the $80 million they're doing immediately to try to get people to run against our folks for these election boards.
And hey, we actually believe in democracy.
We believe in a fair elections, but by only American citizens.
And with chain of custody and certifiable votes, we win that every time, hands down.
The Democrats have to cheat.
They either have to redo the rules or they have to outright cheat in order to win.
And you're going to see more of that, not just in the rig, but this new film coming out by Dinesh D'Souza, I think 2000 Mules.
It's got the True to the Vote guys and all the ring fencing and everything they've done on the data to show the ballot harvesting and what they did to actually steal this election.
Then you got Mike Lindell and these guys pressing forward.
On the machines front, you've got all types of situations.
In Colorado yesterday, they passed this draconian legislation to really strip the election officials at the county level of their power because they know we're coming for them.
Okay?
I understand what they're doing.
It's pretty obvious.
But most importantly, I think, they also are freaking out about conferences.
You see, they hate any type of participation by the American people.
Remember, the elites in this country are anti-populist.
When I say anti-populist, this is the reason they hate Trump.
Trump gave voice to the working class and to the middle class in this country, in D.C., in the imperial capital.
Not in the room, not in the deal.
Okay?
Trump not only put you in the room, he put you at the head of the table.
That's why they hate him the most.
And anything that's any participation at all by the American people, anything that's more than just you keeping your mouth shut, going about and being a cog in the machine, paying taxes, your tax burden is insane, paying your taxes and sending your sons and daughters to support their endless wars on battlefields all over the world of which we should never be engaged in, okay?
Including The Eastern Russian-speaking border of Ukraine and Russia.
That's for them to work out, or for the Germans, or for the French, the Europeans, who are running the opposite direction.
Great story in the Telegraph today, we're going to go to Ben Harnwell in Rome, that says what I've been saying the entire time, we ought to sanction the Germans.
Germans should be sanctioned.
They're the underwriters of this war, so don't give me the big crocodile tears every day on TV.
Cut to the chase of exactly what's happening.
One of the biggest articles in the Guardian was about these conferences, about these workshops, about training American citizens who are volunteering to go on and be poll workers and election officials.
And of course, they got the beautiful picture, a big beautiful picture of our own Cleta Mitchell, if we can get that.
Cleta is not only one of the stars of RIGGED, She's also over at the Conservative Partnership Institute, of which Rachel Maddow, we're going to show more about that later, Rachel Maddow's in complete meltdown about CPI because they are supporting our guest we had on last night, Mr. Buckham, Matt Buckham, from the American Accountability Foundation, of which now they're completely melting down last night.
about the role of everybody in the making sure that Judge Jackson's record was brought forward to the American people and will be used in advertising later to drive Hispanic votes to 65% in states like, mm, random states like Arizona and Nevada as they lose those Senate seats.
Cleta Mitchell, there's a conference this week.
Tell us about these conferences.
Why does the Guardian make a global, this is what I understand, Guardian is the best edited paper More powerful than even the New York Times on the global picture.
It's like the BBC.
Why is a paper in England that has global reach and is the global paper of the progressive left, why are they featuring you as their lead story yesterday about a conference you're doing for the deplorables in Williamsburg Virginia about how they can participate in the election process, ma'am?
cleta mitchell
It is training Americans how they can participate in the election process.
Look, one of the things that we've realized after November 3rd, or on November 3rd, and the aftermath, is there arose, and there is now in this country, an election integrity movement that is populated and driven
By people who supported President Trump and who saw their votes literally cast aside and overcome and overwhelmed by people like David Plouffe and Mark Zuckerberg and the manipulation of our election system.
And people are awake.
I don't want to call them woke.
There's been a great awakening and we have not realized how the left has infiltrated every election office in this country.
And we're taking back our election systems, just like parents are taking back school boards and school systems. So, CPI, where I am, I'm the senior legal fellow, we created the Election Integrity Network. And we are hosting summits in states across the country where we bring people together, volunteers, patriots, deplorables, who come together to learn about how do the the voting machines in their state work.
How do people vote by mail?
How do we become poll watchers and poll workers and election officials?
How do we become a presence?
365 days a year, 24-7, overseeing our local elections and our local election offices.
We're telling people, teaching people, you have to help We're trying to build a permanent election integrity infrastructure in every county in America that will be there to oversee what's happening and never again to let the Zuckerbergs and the left-wing radicals who've infiltrated the election offices to not give them a free ride ever again.
We did it in Virginia in 2021.
And we're doing it in other states in 2022.
And if you want to know about those summits, go to our website, www.whoscounting.us.
That's w-h-o-s-counting-u-s.
And if you will go, we have the, you can register for the summit in Williamsburg this Friday and Saturday.
We're going to show the film, Rigged, Friday night.
We're going to have all day workshops.
We're going to have training Friday afternoon for people who want to learn how to be a poll worker in Virginia.
And we're going to have another summit in May in Detroit, May 13th and 14th.
We're having one in Nevada.
And on May 20th and 21st, we have one in North Carolina and one in Wisconsin in June.
And we're going to train people and provide training for people to just be able to go on the website.
And to learn what they can do, get 10 people, five people around your kitchen table.
We have a citizen's guide to building an election integrity infrastructure.
It's free on the website.
But we're arming people to fight back against the radical left that is trying to turn our republic.
It's not a democracy.
It's a republic.
And we're trying to keep them from stealing it ever again.
We have to do that.
We have to save our country.
steve bannon
Cleta, just hang on for one second.
We're gonna take a short commercial break.
We return.
We got Cleta Mitchell.
We have Royce White.
We have Lou Dotz.
We have Ben Harnwell in Rome.
We have Steve Cortez.
We got Joe Reek.
We've got, we're gonna have Matt Buckham again from the American Accountability Foundation.
We're grinding today, right?
and blowing up the left in the war room.
unidentified
We rejoice when there's no more, let's take down the T.T.D.!
War Room Pandemic.
With Stephen K. Bannon.
The epidemic is a demon and we cannot let this demon hide.
War Room.
Pandemic.
lou dobbs
Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
steve bannon
Okay, MyPillow.com promo code WAROOM.
Make sure you go.
We need everybody to get a great night's sleep, not a good night's sleep, because everybody's working, and you're going to even work more, because this show's not for the passive.
This is not just sit there and listen, and, oh, this is interesting.
We're not here to entertain you, and you're not here to be entertained.
That's why this is a self-selective audience.
It's not just one of the largest because of our outreach to the Chinese Communist Party diaspora, the people that have left China, left mainland China, gone throughout the world at the shows in Mandarin, our huge Lao-Beijing audience.
It's also throughout all the streaming services everywhere, and then in the podcast later.
But this is an activist audience.
The reason everybody watches the War Room, the hedge funds, because we can throw a punch.
Okay?
The reason we're on the front page of the New York Times, we can throw a punch, and they know we can throw a punch.
Okay?
So this strategy, let's go back, because a lot of times we have guests on, you gotta get to the machines, you gotta get, okay.
Just so everybody understands, this is a strategy that has been quite well thought through by a lot of us that are working this every day.
And I would say, let's take World War II.
Uh, in the, uh, taking of Western Europe.
You had Patton in the Third Army to the South, and you had Montgomery in the British up at Market Garden in the North.
And the whole objective was eventually to get to, cross the Rhine and get to, uh, and get to Berlin.
Now, that didn't happen at the end because of other decisions made by, you know, I think some questionable sorts, but that didn't happen.
That was the thing to do at Pinson River, like in the, Civil War, you had Ulysses Grant pounding from Richmond or pounding from Washington to Richmond in the Overland Campaign of 1864 and pounding and pounding and pounding, generally in the Army of Northern Virginia.
And then in the West, you had Sherman pounding and pounding and pounding, going to driving towards Atlanta.
Right.
Once again, a move to kind of drive everything to a point.
OK, same thing here.
You have the decertification movement, and that has got a cast of characters in courts.
We're in assemblies now.
We're fighting.
We're looking to decertify Wisconsin and Arizona.
We're very close there, and that's where they're freaking out, because they understand you decertify one, the dominoes start to fall, but also it undercuts his legitimacy.
He's not legitimate.
It's an illegitimate regime.
In addition, it's what the folks at the conservative, what is it, Partnership Institute and others, like Jenny Beth Martin is on here, the Tea Party Patriots, others are doing this election integrity movement that makes sure this can never happen again.
OK?
Those are moving like Montgomery and Patton, exactly like it.
Almost in conjunction, but moving on the same objectives to make sure that this can never happen again and that the original thing is right because we can't stop.
We're not going to stop there.
And they understand that we are not going to stop ever.
And even when we take power this year in Congress, the investigations and then the criminal referrals, real criminal referrals, OK, real criminal referrals.
Cleta Mitchell is one of the experts and remember what she just said.
This is what is so important.
Once again, it's twofold.
It's infrastructure locally, making sure we have the infrastructure.
We should have had for years and it's not time to blame people.
We can worry about that later after we win.
It's to build the infrastructure and then to build a network effect.
So it's two things simultaneously.
Building a local infrastructure that you're in charge of.
That you have your controls of.
This participatory populism.
This is what it's about.
You've got the school boards.
You've got guys in the medical boards.
You've got the precinct strategy.
We're taking over the Republican Party.
This is the electoral apparatus.
That you will take over, and you will control the election boards, you will control this, and hey, all we're looking for is a count, a fair count of real votes from real citizens.
Okay?
If we do that, we win every time.
They have to cheat to win.
I don't care if they don't like hearing this.
I don't care.
Remember, our focus here is very different than winning an election on November 8th.
We understood through divine providence on the big steal.
You flipped all your cards over.
And we see what you're trying to do and destroy the American family and use children to do it.
And to allow an invasion of our southern border and exacerbate it.
To bog us down in more endless wars where we don't have any vital national security interests while our enemies in Beijing benefit from it.
We totally understand.
We completely get, and also the concentration of assets, where you're going to own everything and just rent it out and turn our people under 35 years old into nothing more than Russian serfs.
We understand it.
We can see it very clear.
And we are not going to allow it.
And so, how are we going to stop that?
It's quite simple.
We are going to destroy the Democratic Party as a national political institution on November 8th.
And we're going to do it from election boards, and school boards, and county supervisors, and attorney generals, and local DAs, and secretaries of state, and state legislatures, and governors, and then the House and the Senate.
And so, at the end of it, on the evening of November 8th, the Democratic Party will be shattered into two pieces.
A kind of left-wing Green Party, run by the Squad, and what's left of them, because one of my next guests is going to say how Omar is not going to be part of that, because she's not going to be in Congress.
Okay?
She'll have a show on MSNBC.
And also, and they'll shatter into the other, the neoliberal neocon, which is Liz Cheney, or Dick Cheney in drag, Dick Cheney with the wig on one side, and you got Hillary Clinton on the other.
Our task and purpose is quite simple.
We are out to destroy the Democratic Party root and branch as a national political institution.
It'll still survive.
We'll still have the coastal elites and all that.
But as something that can wreck and destroy our republic, its days will be over.
So Cleta Mitchell, once again, these summits, this is just not guys sharing war stories.
I think people are tired of hearing people tell war stories.
When you come to a summit, when they sign up and go, are these active workshops where they actually understand how to take over and grab hold of and control the local apparatus in their local elections and then to network throughout the country so we have an apparatus that is unbreakable and is resilient, ma'am?
cleta mitchell
That's absolutely what we're doing.
We do not have We had Governor DeSantis, who was our keynote speaker at our Florida summit, but he had just engineered through the Florida legislature an incredibly important election reform bill.
We're not about having speeches and making people mad or happy or laughing.
We are working, and people sit there for hours.
We start at eight in the morning, and we start through, here's the Virginia model, here's what we did in Virginia.
We started With about four to five local task forces in Virginia by the end of 2021.
We now are up to 36 local task forces in Virginia that meet on a call every week with a statewide coalition, and we are building that in every other state.
We want people to take over their local election offices by virtue of just being there, being a presence, read the minutes, attend the meetings, find out who the vendors are.
You would be shocked to learn how many left-wing organizations Entities funded by billionaires like Pierre Omidyar, who was an eBay billionaire, who has for 10 years been pumping hundreds of millions of his own money into building these entities, TurboVote, BallotScout.
They have an organization, Center for Civic Design, which designs ballots, designed the ballots for the state of California recall and the ballot envelopes, where you literally could see how someone had voted.
The U.S.
Post Office does business with the Center for Civic Design, which is a left-wing organization.
We have a lot of work to do, and the only way we're going to be able to fight back and to fight all of their money and all of their entities is by patriots in their local counties Being in charge of the elections, being there on election day, but not just on election day as election workers, not just as observers, but we need that.
We need all that.
But we need people who are willing to Understand what's the voting equipment that's used in your county?
How do you vote by mail?
What is your local post office doing with regard to these left-wing groups who send all these applications for absentee ballots?
We are teaching people about all of these things.
We try to have a mix of people in the state, and people who are national experts to come in, and we do panels, and we have Q&A, and we have handouts and materials, and we follow the Citizens' Guide for Building an Election-Integrated Infrastructure. It's free. It's on the website, www.whoscounting.us.
I have a podcast where I talk to local—I talk to people who are engaged in this movement and what they're doing, and so others can be inspired and learn from them.
Thank you.
So this is a people's movement.
It's not star-studded.
The people are the stars.
The patriots are the stars.
And it's amazing to me.
It really brings tears to my eyes.
Because these people come, and they come early in the morning, and they stay, and it's five in the afternoon, and we're still talking about absentee voting, and the role of the post office, and they're there, they haven't moved a muscle, they're taking notes, they're attentive, and they're going away, saying, I'm gonna do this in my hometown.
And that's what we all need to do.
All need to do.
steve bannon
This is why The Guardian has as the lead story.
This is why Rachel Maddow's melting down on it.
They understand they can't stop this.
They can't stop it.
cleta mitchell
They can't stop it.
They can keep saying, we're the big lie.
They keep saying the big lie, the big lie.
And they talk about Trump says without evidence, without evidence, These people are completely ignorant who say that.
There is so much evidence about what happened in 2020.
steve bannon
They're not ignorant.
They're not ignorant.
They say that on purpose.
It's all their propaganda.
Real quickly, we've got to bounce.
Once again, how do people go to find out about this summit this weekend?

steve bannon
But let's start.
I want everybody that's around in the region.
Hey, it's a working weekend.
Let's put the shoulder to the wheel.
Cleta Mitchell, your star as always, ma'am.
Thank you very much.
cleta mitchell
Thank you.
steve bannon
As Lao Tzu said in 400, I think in 400 BC, the great leader is when the work is accomplished, the objective achieved, the people say, look what we have done ourselves.
All next in The War Room.
unidentified
We will fight till they're all gone.
We rejoice when there's no more.
Let's take down the CTD.
It's our pride.
You're the name.
You're the name above all names.
You are worthy of our praise.
Thank you.
steve bannon
Okay, that was a sharing of a group that's done a lot of good work on a plane that was a Christian song they were singing in celebration during Holy Week.
And a city congressman had a big problem with that.
I want to bring in Royce White now, who's running for Congress in Minneapolis against Congressman Omar.
Royce, what was Congressman Omar's problem with that kind of emotional outpouring of kind of the The Christian faith or an aspect of the Christian faith during Holy Week, sir?
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, he's muted.
steve bannon
Okay, we've got to unmute.
K. Royce, you've got to unmute yourself, bro.
Okay, we're going to have to use the blue doves.
It's good, we hear you, sir.
royce white
Okay, good.
Yeah, these people stopping nothing to destroy America and Christianity and what Omar did over the weekend was she tried to use the juxtaposition of Islamic discrimination, you could say, to make the claim that these people, you know, praising God or praising Jesus was some type of sign of white supremacy and Americanism or whatever else, you know, she tried to claim it to be.
steve bannon
So, I mean, but what's her, what's her problem?
It's just a, it's a celebration.
She was very snarky about how she said this.
What is her continual, what's her continual problem about this?
And how is that specifically as you're campaigning up in Minneapolis?
How's it playing with the folks up there?
royce white
Well, you know, the problem is, is that these people are really anti-human and their anti-American sentiments or their anti-Christian sentiments are a byproduct of them being anti-human, right?
They're radical materialists.
So they're stuck in the here and now, and their sense of heaven has collapsed.
First of all, I don't even accept the... What makes me most frustrated is I don't even accept the juxtaposition that she's posed around Islam, because the entire democratic platform is really antithetical to Islamic faith, number one.
We all know that to be a fact.
So, you know, she's using Islam, as many people have, from all of the Abrahamic religions, And taking the Lord's name in vain.
So, I don't accept the premise that Ilhan and her family would be praying in a public place at all, which is what she tried to say.
If my family and I were to pray this way in a plane, you know, how do you think it would end?
So, I don't accept the premise.
But ultimately, they have to destroy America and they have to destroy Christianity because human freedom is codified in our Constitution.
It's codified in our nation.
And they want man to be the ultimate authority.
Our human freedom, the premium on human freedom in America, was ordained to us by an authority higher than man or government.
And that's in their way.
steve bannon
Is this story, are you getting a feeling, or is your campaign and your putting forward these ideas and concepts, you believe this is getting traction in Minneapolis?
royce white
I do believe so.
I mean, people are already upset with Ilhan Omar.
I think we've created such a crisis in this country.
For the everyday working class citizen, that people are deeply, deeply yearning for real leadership.
And even if their ideology is somewhat aligned, if the results don't yield, then they'll look for other sources.
I think all leaders support right now at the grassroots level is conditional.
And she continues to be one who looks to the WWE politics and the political theater to garner reactions.
And yeah, there's a Twitter echo chamber.
Or our social media echo chamber that will continue to tout her praises out of being, you know, just absolute zealots.
But overall, slowly but surely, we're seeing continuous communication that people who traditionally voted Democrat are coming over to the American popular side.
steve bannon
Royce, how do people find out more about you and more about your campaign?
royce white

I want to bring in now the great Lou Dobbs.
We've got Ben Harnwell at the Vatican, but I want to bring in Lou Dobbs while I've got him.
Lou, we start today, the New York Times has got a page one story about the decertification process and getting it back of this illegitimate Biden regime, and our favorite Maggie Haberman, and was it Mike Schmidt?
Yeah, Mike Schmidt, she's another assassin over there, are all worked up.
About the decertification process, also that we're trying to take over election apparatuses at the local level and then knit them together in a national network so it can never be stolen again.
Why are the elites in continual meltdown loo about people's engagement in the political process, not just writing checks or showing up to vote, but actually Becoming poll workers, becoming election officials, getting inside the room and actually monitoring the count to make sure the elections don't get stolen again.
Why do the Arlites hate that, sir?
lou dobbs
Well, they hate it because that was their job.
They were going to take care of every election.
They were going to push the votes as they did in 2020.
And they were going to count them too, because that's just, you know, so we don't have to worry our our little heads about those little factors.
Steve, I was so excited to see that story because it means it's working, brother.
We are actually talking about politics at the local level.
It's driving the New York Times nuts.
Mark Elias is doing backflips because he knows he is now in regression.
This is a party that is building itself, rebuilding itself from the ground up because of you.
Because of a lot of Americans, Donald Trump, who are saying, we absolutely have to be participants in this great democracy of ours.
And that means we get our noses into the school board meetings, the city council meetings, I don't care what it is, the zoning board, getting Americans, patriots, engaged in their local communities where they have the greatest influence.
That is as exciting a development as I've seen since Well, 2015, when Donald Trump announced he was running for president.
steve bannon
This is the thing, is that, for the audience, whatever your interest is, if you want to get more on the political side, become a precinct strategy, go to precinct strategy, become a precinct committeeman, and get involved in Republican parties at the grassroots level.
If you want to never see these elections stolen again, go become a poll worker or an election official.
If you want to help stop the poison in our kids, go to a school board, become an elected official of a school board, and then help the school out somehow as some sort of advisor to the schools.
There's so many opportunities.
And here's what they can't do.
They announced yesterday, SORUS is throwing in another $80 million so they can round up some guys to run against our folks at the poll thing.
That's okay.
It's a democracy.
That shows you it's working.
They're in panic mode.
They're in panic mode.
Finally, the Lou Dobbs audience is now weaponized to go.
That's what's got the New York Times and The Guardian and Rachel Maddow in full meltdown, sir.
lou dobbs
Well, it's nice to hear, isn't it?
The great thing that is going on in this country is right now the RNC, which as you well know, is a top-down organization.
Uh, run by do nothings, uh, and, uh, who were trying to scrape every dime off the, uh, the public purse, they can, uh, the Patriot purse, uh, and to see this money and this energy created at the local level and putting that kind of inspiration and fire together, uh, is wondrous.
I mean, this is America reborning.
Uh, and I am very excited because I know this.
Steve, the RNC isn't doing anything.
They're talking to everybody.
Ronna McDaniel sends out a very, you know, a milquetoast tweet every once in a while.
My, my, wasn't that a powerful commentary on our society by Ronna?
I mean, what is that?
We need an organization that is funding lawyers and dispersing them and having, right now, serious talks with every Republican legislator in the country.
To make sure that we don't have any more nonsense and rolling back every one of those silly laws that they put together.
They weren't laws because they were illegal, but they got to be the rules of 2020 and we need to make doggone sure they're not the rules of 2022 and four.
steve bannon
You know, there's a piece in the Telegraph today saying that the Germans should be sanctioned because their government refuses to stop buying.
I've been arguing this, and now finally somebody in England, they're waking up.
Hey, you sanction the Russians, sanction the Germans.
They're the ones underwriting this.
But I want to go to Mark Kelly.
You've got two borders that they're problems with.
You've got this eastern border Ukraine, and obviously there's this huge dispute, and people are getting killed over it, and now there's all this talk about de-escalating, and what we said, President Trump sends this message out last night, we've got to get to the table, force people to the table.
Mark Kelly in Arizona announces that he's going to go on a world junket to India, to Poland, all these other places, getting support for more combat support for Ukraine.
At the same time, there's a border in his state, sir, that is an invasion that now they're projecting could be up to six million illegal aliens come here this year in just one calendar year.
Lou Dobbs, please try to make, can you make sense of that for me?
lou dobbs
Oh, sure I can.
Mark Kelly is out of his mind.
And by the way, that puts him in good company in his party.
Here is a man going on a world junket when millions of illegal immigrants are crossing that border.
And the Democratic Party program is to give them, according to Biden, he wants about a half a million per family.
He wants them carried in private jets all over the country, in charter jets, dispersed in the dark of night.
And then, by golly, we're going to have big labor.
Pat, Mark Kelly on the back, and he's going to be able to say he is a conservative Democrat.
It's all bull.
And the American people have seen his act.
It's a tiresome act.
It's a rhino act.
And America's sick of rhinos.
The Republican Party doesn't quite yet understand.
Rhino is the same thing as leper was in the 12th century.
It is a disgusting, appalling condition for which there is no cure, apparently.
So the only thing we can do is vote them out of office.
They're destroying, they're trying to destroy the Republican Party, almost with the same energy and animation and commitment as the Marxist left Dems.
And that's a problem.
And we've got to find leaders in this cycle.
Who can take the Republican Party to the heights that President Trump had us directed in.
steve bannon
Okay, on our cold open this morning, we had Rachel Maddow first and then we had the guys at Morning Mika.
That was a way, I tell you, that was real torture to our audience.
You start with Rachel Maddow's voice and then Morning Mika.
unidentified
Wow!
That's a double barrel shotgun right there, right?
steve bannon
That's a gathering.
Lou, I tell you what, when we get back, we'll actually stay over through the break, but here's a question I got for you.
We ended that with, they've now figured out what the problem is.
The problem...
With our country is that the illegitimate regime Biden has not gone out and really made his pitch at the local level.
So it's like Weekend and Bernie said, take it.
No, they're going to take this show on the road now like that's going to help.
But what they're taking the show on the road.
They're actually going to explain the American people with a start in New Hampshire and they're going to go to the Pacific Northwest, but they're going to explain Lou.
And I want you to deconstruct this when we get back.
We're going to explain to the American people why inflation is not their fault.
There are actually more victories than defeats.
And inflation is all Putin's problem and what's going on in Shanghai and all that.
Short commercial break.

Also, please remember Lee Greenwood.
We have a partnership with him.
He got turned down by his publisher who had published all of his bestsellers for years about doing this God Bless the USA Bible.
It's a King James Version of the Old and New Testament.
The founding documents are divinely inspired founding documents all in one binding.
They rejected and decided to publish the Satanic Bible instead.
So Lee Greenwood's worked with a group that we're assisting.

So do that today in these trying times that are only going to get more trying.
Before we get to the sunlit uplands.
Lou Dobbs, the great warrior.
So Lou, Biden's going to take this, you know, he's going to leave the bunny.
He's going to leave the bunny at the White House.
He's going to take this show on the road.
But in the serious nature, he's going to try to convince the American people, sir, this inflation is not because of his policies.
It's really been set on the American people by Putin, what's happening in Shanghai, all that.
What's your analysis of that, Lou Dobbs?
lou dobbs
Well, the first reaction is I can just see him pulling into a community in a big bus, the back end drops, a donkey comes out, he climbs aboard riding backwards and they parade him through the streets with someone, you know, a DJ playing a prescribed recorded message talking about inflation.
It's, first of all, it's just a it's a ridiculous concept and if the If the staff of the White House are serious about this, the Democratic Party will be doomed for eons.
It won't be just this election.
It won't be the next.
Please get the president out there as much as you can and to show everyone exactly what fools he has around him in that White House.
And that will explain inflation.
The rest of it is just pure nonsense.
It's really interesting, Steve, that the American people No, what's going on there.
70% of them say the country's headed in the wrong direction.
And the white house reaction is in their totalitarian, uh, uh, uh, spirit, uh, decide to throw him out into the communities and, uh, and talk blithering nonsense because the cause of inflation is the Biden administration.
It's that straightforward.
It's his policies, uh, his madness.
And he talks about, no, no, no, Putin's responsible.
No, Biden is responsible for Putin.
Biden is the one who screwed up in Afghanistan.
He's the one who screwed up in Kazakhstan, his administration.
He's the one that gave the green light.
To invade Ukraine with three months notice was as they built up their troop movements and he did nothing.
And by the way, neither did NATO or the European Union.
So, you know, keep it coming.
White House, you guys are doing just a baffo job of stripping this country of its biggest internal threat, which is the Marxist left-wing Dems who are in control of this country and whatever puppet masters Or pulling their strings.
steve bannon
I think it was Jonathan Lemire, who's now at Politico, and one of the early morning hosts of the Morning Meeca, was saying that part of this effort is to show empathy, to show that he feels their pain.
That's kind of out of the Clinton- Tell America, quote unquote, you feel their pain, versus action.
Have you seen any concrete action from this administration, Lou Dobbs, to take care of this roaring inflation that we have, sir?
lou dobbs
None whatsoever.
And they've had every opportunity.
I mean, they could have easily reversed their decision.
There's nothing worse than a Marxist leftist.
Uh, then I stubborn Marxist leftists and they refused to reverse Keystone.
They refused.
I mean, they put out this silly thing about, uh, you know, they're going to, uh, allow allow permit from on high and the white house.
They're going to permit drilling for oil, uh, you know, with all sorts of limitations that makes it effectively, uh, nothing more than a talking point.
This administration is not empathetic, as far as I can tell, with anything but the people who are holding parts of Biden's covert money supply.
We're watching an administration.
I mean, how did the Bidens, first of all, get all this money?
Why aren't they worrying about, why is it that the corporate media worry just a little bit about what an obvious crook the guy and his family are?
It's, uh, no one wants to talk about it straight and, uh, in the national left-wing media, but it's time all of the rest of us do, because this is a serious, serious problem and issue.
Uh, and by the way, if I can just get this in, John Durham, you're late, you took your time, but brother, are you getting it done?
Three indictments, he's laying out the facts and there are no questions now.
steve bannon
Yeah, I think Mark Elias and his buddies are going to have some splainin' to do, as Lucy would say, or as Ricky would say.
unidentified
Yeah.
steve bannon

steve bannon
Okay.
We're going to take a short break.
And when we return we've got Ben Harnwell at the Vatican.
We have Steve Cortez.
We're going to come with a bunch of analysis.
He's got a piece up on in his sub stack that's been up on Getter.
It's pretty stunning about what's happening to the young people in this country.
You want to understand also what Biden's done to mortgages and to crush the ability to have any home ownership.
So this inflation is starting to reveal itself in every part of what we call the cap table.
Okay?
And it is about to change your life pretty dramatically.
We've got all that at the opening of the next act in the War Room.
Be back in a moment.
