One, to Nila's point, 1.8 million people said they were unable to work last month because their employer closed or lost business due to the pandemic.
1.8 million.
Small business shutting down, unable to work.
Retail trade dropped 61,000 month over month.
I'm not trying to find some sort of... Retail?
Yeah, retail fell.
And you just wonder, Rick, We talk a lot about the consumer and the economy.
Is this kind of a canary in the consumer coal mine, given that retailers were laying people off?
rick santelli
I couldn't agree more, Brian.
I'm one of the few out there who really thinks that there's now two canaries in the coal mine.
The one you just brought up.
And about three, four Fridays ago, when we had the consumer credit number come out, over double expectations of $52 billion on a month-over-month basis.
A huge historic move. To me, when you look at some of these anecdotal signals regarding the consumer, and then you consider in three states over $7 for gasoline as people go back to work, I don't think you need to be a rocket scientist to figure out that the consumer is going to be overburdened, and even with five months in a row of over 5% year-over-year earnings, it's just not enough right now, and I think that will continue to be the story that two-thirds of the economy is going to slow down a bit. The question is
how much, and for how long.
unidentified
I do.
And on the fiscal policy front, look, one of the biggest drivers of this surge in inflation in recent months has been energy.
And there are concrete steps that the administration could be taking today to start bringing down some of the medium to longer run pressure on energy prices by increasing permitting, increasing leasing.
Heck, if they really wanted to bring down some near term price pressure, they could be issuing some Jones Act waivers.
But we're not seeing them do that because it's evidently politically untenable.
Yeah, you're talking about the rule about shipping, why basically refiners in Houston are going to sell their oil to the Rotterdam Netherlands rather than New Jersey because these weird shipping regulations.
You know, when it comes to inflation, I think those two stories are related because workers respond to real wages, not nominal wages.
And we've been seeing real wages continue to decline in recent months because the nominal wage growth just hasn't been keeping up with inflation.
steve bannon
Okay, more bad economic news today.
When you really look below it, don't take the top line over 350,000 jobs.
That's not the key.
The key is what's happening at retail.
The great Rick Santelli at CNBC, obviously the smartest guy there, really starts to nail it.
You're starting to see the crushing of the consumer.
And these small businesses are imploding.
1.7 million people lost their jobs, couldn't find work.
They're in that type of retail.
What Biden's going to do is come forward with another massive stimulus package.
He's got a stimulus package, he's going to say, to save these small retailers.
That's all to come.
It's going to fuel inflation more.
Of course, at the same time, he said in that really sophomoric op-ed in the Wall Street Journal that they're focused on, their total focus is going to let the Fed do their thing, which is, they've been a disaster so far.
Their easy money policies got us into this jam.
They're going to let the Fed do their thing, which is both contract their balance sheet to let down the asset bubble slowly, at the same time start hitting 50 basis points every meeting interest rates to try to choke down inflation.
And their target is wage inflation.
The last guy right there said, hey, with workers it's not the nominal 5% or 6% that they get, it's the real, which is you take the 8% or 9% inflation, you back that out, you're losing 3% to 4% or 5% a month minimum.
And now it's going to, particularly as percentage of your income is by energy and food and all it's going to be everything.
You're going to see, this is hitting, hurtling, not hitting, hurtling to very dangerous territory.
We're going to get into all of that today.
unidentified
Ukraine, geopolitics, politics, all of it.
steve bannon
Some of the demographics, the Hispanic community under assault by MSNBC and Media Matters, right?
Media Matters continues to assault us.
Non-stop in our support of the Hispanic community by saying we're trying to build an ethno-nationalist state.
Must not be watching the war room there, Madeline.
You're supposed to be our marketing director.
You gotta get focused.
Okay, big news coming out of Pennsylvania.
Big news out of Florida today.
Sabatini will be with us later.
The Supreme Court basically approved the map, the redistricting map.
That this audience fought so hard for.
I remember Steve Kornacki, that great piece the other night on MSNBC, they finished and they said, hey look, one is the voting patterns, the registrations, the outreach to the Hispanic community.
He says the other, you know, story nobody's talking about is redistricting, right?
They talked about Anna Paulina's district in Florida 13, but the DeSantis map that he fought for and he did.
Governor DeSantis got it through and a huge hat tip to him, Sabatini would be later.
Huge news out of Pennsylvania, bringing in the campaign chairman for Dave McCormick, Jim Schultz.
Jim, big news.
I think it's kind of confusing, or at least it's confusing to me.
You guys are allowed to count everything, but they haven't decided whether they're going to actually let those votes count yet.
The Commonwealth Court supported you to go ahead and start counting all ballots.
No, so here's what happened, Steve.
of action are those going to be part of the final talent is that a correct understanding or do i misunderstand that as you tell me i do and so many of the legal times when you're you're right now these these so here's what happened to the last week the supreme court united states basically issued administrative order staying the uh... the high county decision uh... that we talked about last week But we also argued in Commonwealth Court, which is the immediate court that you go to to argue these election matters.
unidentified
The campaign argued in Commonwealth Court and was successful in arguing under the Free and Fair Elections Clause of the Pennsylvania Constitution that Ballots that are indisputably timely, but that the date may have the wrong date, or may have a birth date on there, or something like that, shall be counted.
So, the court ruled that these shall be counted, and these shall count toward this election.
There's been no appeal yet filed from that Commonwealth Court decision.
We believe that, you know, I anticipate that there's going to be an appeal filed to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court on that.
But nonetheless, that was decided under state law.
She also decided, favorably under the persuasive Decision that came out of the Third Circuit, the persuasive authority that came out of the Third Circuit.
But the key thing there is, Steve, that she decided that under state law and state constitution.
And the buck's going to stop at the Pennsylvania Supreme Court on that issue and not the United States Supreme Court.
There's a couple of other matters that are going into court this week, Steve.
The hand recount petition that was filed by the McCormick campaign for 12 counties, certain precincts in 12 counties, to do hand recounts, not just Counts that are using different machines from the machines that were used on election day.
The scanners that were used on election day.
So that's going to be argued Monday.
Also coming up, there were a number of discrepancies in Philadelphia that are going to be argued in common court.
And interestingly enough, in Berks County, Steve, on election day, there was a problem with the electronic poll books that they were using.
And once they realized that in a number of precincts that they were having problems with electronic poll books, the county turned around and then sent out paper poll books that they used to use for folks to sign, and that delayed things.
And for that reason, they kept the polls open an extra hour.
We are in court.
The campaign is in court.
Uh, you know, there are 143 votes that are out there that were after the time deadline for folks to, for folks to vote because the court not just did it in the, didn't just extend the time to vote in those individual precincts, they did it county-wide.
So they're in court fighting that too.
steve bannon
Let me ask you, the war room engine room, you know, they pull stuff for us non-stop and get stuff to us.
One of the engine room folks is saying, hey, but the McCormick campaign and Schultz and these guys are just Mark Elias and drag.
That they've taken all the tactics of Mark Elias, they've taken all the dirty things that we've fought against for so long, and that's where they're in court.
And yeah, they're going to get some wins because the courts, you know, the courts have supported Mark Elias, and it's saying to count all votes, right, where ours is all count.
All, you know, legal, certifiable, chain-of-custody votes.
That's the mantra of the war room.
So what's your response to that?
unidentified
Well, these are legal votes, people.
The Commonwealth Court decision, by the way, we were before a Republican judge, Republican elected judge, Renée Cohen-Jubilier.
Our lawyers were in front of Renée Cohen-Jubilier, who's a Republican judge.
Her husband was an elected Republican state senator.
Judge Jubalier found under the elections clause that these are, in fact, time-stamped ballots.
So there is a chain of custody here, Steve.
These votes came in, they were time-stamped by the court as being timely, prior to 8 o'clock on Election Day, and therefore they need to be counted.
The rest of it is just demagoguery, Steve, that folks are saying out there.
These are valid Republican voters.
Who wants to disenfranchise a Republican voter on the show?
I'd say nobody.
Especially somebody that took the effort to go out and either do a mail-in ballot or vote absentee in a Republican primary for a Republican candidate in Pennsylvania where the law permits that.
We want to encourage voters to go out and do mail-ins and absentees in Pennsylvania and we want them to count.
This isn't Mark Elias.
steve bannon
This is encouraging Republican voters to vote Early and vote, you know and get their vote in so that they count and if there's some type of mistake You're not talking about a signature. That's an identifying mark. You're talking about something that was time stamp and just miss data I Said on this show a couple weeks ago that I knew the head this law by I think June 7th It had a winner had to be declared and I said hey I I think with the way that the McCormick guys are dug in and they pretty sophisticated
and they're tough, that this thing's going to go, and this could go all the way to mid-June or later.
I actually said it's not going to get settled until the 4th of July weekend.
Is the 7th of June still a hard date or is because of everything that's in the courts, is that going to be pushed back right now?
unidentified
That's up in the courts as to whether they're going to push it back, but I'll tell you, Steve, we are pushing really hard to try and get this done as soon as possible.
It's very important that whoever the candidate is at the end of the day gets started and starts campaigning against Jon Fetterman because it's so important for this country that we beat Jon Fetterman on Election Day.
steve bannon
Okay, let me, now that you bring that up, is, and I'm hearing all kinds of rumors, they're going to have State Committee Chairman and Democratic Party, what is going on with Fetterman?
Is Fetterman, and look, we wish him well, if he's got health issues, he and his family, but is, what has happened with, is Fetterman actually going to be the nominee, or is his health, it's pretty surprising.
He has not been more forthcoming, particularly with the fiasco we have in the Republic side.
You've got a super punch out on the Republic side, and they don't seem to be taking advantage of it.
Is Fetterman, Healthy enough to run for the Senate?
unidentified
Steve, I have no idea whether he's healthy enough to run for the Senate.
Anything that I'd say would be rumor and innuendo, so I'm not going to speak to that.
I just know that no matter whether it's John Fetterman on the ticket, and we have to assume it's going to be until such time that we hear differently, it's so important that we win Pennsylvania because that, the Senate, is going to be water lost in this Pennsylvania election.
steve bannon
Okay, last question.
You guys are not backing off.
You're not giving up.
You're not conceding.
You're going to fight this out to the bitter end?
unidentified
Well, Steve, we're in court fighting for every vote.
Every lawful vote.
Every lawful vote that was cast.
And right now, the counties are recounting.
I think they're about 40% through that recount at this point.
And as soon as we're able to make a judgment call one way or the other, we're going to make that judgment call.
You know, at this point in time, there's no reason to surrender.
Going into the recount, we didn't even have a full count of the votes, Steve, which makes it very difficult and very frustrating, because if you don't have a full count of the votes, it's tough to make judgment calls as to what you're going to do.
So that just means you have to make sure you fight for every vote.
steve bannon
Okay, Jim, thank you very much.
I take it everybody still goes to Dave McCormick's Twitter feed to get constant updates, correct?
unidentified
That's right.
Okay.
steve bannon
Jim Schultz, Chairman of the McCormick Campaign.
Thank you very much.
Thank you.
Note to audience, that one's going to go past June 7th.
They're going to punch that out for a while.
Let's go to South Carolina.
Another tough race down there.
Katie Arrington, very close.
And Trump endorsed, very close to Peter Navarro, a real warrior, been MAGA since day one.
Katie, we got about a minute here.
I'm going to hold you through the break.
Just give me your quick assessment.
Is this Nikki Haley and Lindsey Graham versus Donald Trump?
It looks like it's a Nikki Haley operation and Lindsey Graham operation versus Donald Trump.
Is that essentially what this race has come down to?
unidentified
Nikki has actually made this election her earmark into trying to get a presidential nomination in 2024.
She's making it a proxy war between her and Donald J. Trump, and not about the issues that are on the top of this district.
And it's sad.
It's despicable what's going on down here in South Carolina.
So when you get back to me, we need to talk about this race, and I need the Bannon War Room to help me fight the swamp, because they are going full effect.
steve bannon
Okay, we're going to take a short commercial break.
We've got a lot of this today.
We're going to get Sabatini in.
Sabatini's going to be joining us at the top of the hour.
Sabatini's going to tell us about the redistricting.
Massive victory for the War Room Posse and for MAGA down in Florida.
Also going to have The Moms for Liberty that were highlighted on the MSNBC in this MSNBC special.
Everybody's got to watch.
It was absolutely incredible.
You had these fighters that are now pure MAGA and the MSNBC.
They were tough.
They were very tough, but they were fair, which is so shocking in media today.
So we're going to bring that on.
We've got so much to go through.
Joe Kent.
We've got the great Carrie Lake, a Trump-endorsed governor in the governor's race in Arizona.
Big developments there.
She's throwing down hard on Joe Biden and what Joe Biden's trying to do with the schools.
The whole grooming aspect of it.
Carrie Lake.
We've got Katie Arrington in a proxy war in South Carolina.
All next in The War Room.
unidentified
War Room.
On the T.V.!
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, there's a proxy war going down in South Carolina against President Trump and MAGA, and that would be Nikki Haley and Lindsey Graham have come all in for the opposition to Katie Arrington.
Katie, walk us through this proxy war.
Why would Nikki Haley, who in public says, I won't run against President Trump, I support President Trump, I love President Trump, you know, rubbing up all on President Trump, why is she sneakily And far be it from me to say she's sneaky.
The day she quit, I was in Bloomberg.
I was giving a talk to all the hedge fund guys, all the money guys in London, the City of London, Bloomberg's new $4 billion headquarters there, packed house of all the haters.
Right, tell them the way the populist movement, nationalist movement, the moment she quit, right before the 18 campaign.
And I said, she's ambitious as Lucifer.
This one is out of control.
Go ahead, ma'am.
unidentified
So she is absolutely making this a proxy war.
You know, she got behind Nancy Mace, you know, who of course blamed President Trump for January 6th, voted to certify the elections.
She jumped right on, you know, in with the swamp and endorsed Mace and has made this a proxy war.
She is trying to, you know, shore up the first in the South for Nikki Haley.
And, you know, President Trump, you know, of course, we all know how he feels about, you know, Ms.
Mace.
And Nancy is using, you know, Nikki, just as much as Nikki is using Nancy Mace down here.
It's sad.
But the swamp, Steve, if you were down here, you would be amazed at the amount of, you know, hate that the swamp is putting out there, trying to hold on desperately to this seat and trying to, you know, push Nikki Haley forward.
It's despicable and disgusting down here.
steve bannon
What does this audience, I want all the audiences in South Carolina obviously get engaged here, but the rest of the national audience, what do people, and we need people to be force multipliers and push this information out.
Also, Lindsey Graham, his track record now, this Ukraine thing, we're going to talk about Ukraine in a moment.
Ukraine, the whole Ukraine thing is collapsing before us, except the Ukrainian military in Zelensky are doubling and tripling down on our money.
There's a great There's a chart in Zero Hedge, I put up on my getter, that shows you of the money that's gone to support them militarily.
$27 billion from the United States, I think $1.2 billion from Germany.
All of Europe combines a couple of billion dollars.
We're underwriting this military, continuing on.
Now they're talking about going to Crimea, fighting in Crimea.
Although the support for Europe is collapsing, Lindsey Graham's been the worst.
He's gone unhanded and bragged about it.
I have no idea.
I'm shocked at everything that's been going on in South Carolina.
You know, we here in this district, we are a hard conservative district.
unidentified
Why is Lindsey Graham getting involved here trying to defeat Donald Trump in South Carolina, ma'am? I Have no idea. I'm Shocked at everything that's been going on in South Carolina You know we here in this district. We are a hard conservative district where you know Solid red and anybody that you talk to on the streets down here They can't understand why we sent 40 billion dollars to Ukraine when we have you know
a supply chain crisis an energy crisis a security crisis an Education crisis and why you know that the swamp DC mafia is focusing on everything, but America And we need to make sure that we send an America first candidate back.
And not let them get any ground on this.
This is all about presidential runs in 2024.
It's not, you know, they're trying to make this what it is not about.
And what it is about in this district is making sure that we send an America First candidate.
So I do need all the war room warriors to put out the word to help in the campaign, which the website is katie4forsd.com.
We don't need to be spending $40 billion to Ukraine.
We don't need to continually build a reliance on foreign energy that this, you know, swamp is creating and the fake Biden administration.
We need to take America back and we cannot let them continue.
So I need everybody's support.
The primary is June 14th.
We're in open early voting right now.
I need all the help I can get because this is It's scary to see how not just, you know, the Democrat, but how the rhinos up in Washington will fight to hold on to, you know, this seat.
And it's ridiculous and I need help.
steve bannon
Um, this is, you know, this is the MAGA agenda versus, I mean, you were in the Trump administration and fought for President Trump every day.
You're a MAGA fighter.
Peter Navarro, who, you know, Navarro says, hey, Katie's one of the toughest, best people in that administration, had Trump's back the entire time.
Nancy Mace is 100% opposed to the MAGA agenda, just 100% opposed to it.
So is Lindsey Graham.
Lindsey Graham's out there now, he's trying to cut, he's trying to cut gun grab deals.
Lindsey Graham, the discussions Lindsey Graham has on DACA, and on amnesty, and on gun grabs, would shock people.
Of the types of deals he tried to clear.
He is 1,000% against America First, 1,000% against MAGA.
And any candidate he endorses, I understand he put a mailer for.
has to be defeated has to be not not kinda has to be defeated and then you get a little late with her with her over the top over what okay let me make it noted nikki haley is never going to be president of the united states it will never happen Okay?
She doesn't have the character.
She doesn't have the brains.
She doesn't have the fortitude.
She's just a shifty, crafty, cunning politician.
Exactly the type of Republican that was the controlled opposition and got us into this jam.
Okay?
Allowed these left-wing, cultural Marxist, atheistic Democrats and the money people in back of them on Wall Street and the world corporations to destroy this nation.
And she's a running dog for that, as we would say, toward the Chinese Communist Party.
So this thing is bigger.
This is bigger than Katie Arrington.
And Donald Trump, he should be enormously upset.
Go ahead, Katie.
unidentified
So, Steve, and to the War Room Warriors, what we're seeing right here, you know, all the other elections that have happened in the primary have been about President Trump's capability in, you know, the legacy.
This race is about President Trump's future in 2024 and what the America First agenda means, because this is the first time that we have actually up in the northern part of the state.
We've got Tom Rice running against Russell Frye and Russell Frye is picking his Asked on that part of my French and then down in my district.
We have myself going against Nancy Mace who voted to certify the elections blame Donald Trump for January 6.
We need to make sure that we keep these seats.
from the rhinos, from those people that are not America first.
And Nikki Haley doesn't even know how to spell America first.
And she is trying to take this as her moniker to go forward and look for donations and to get wind in her sails.
And it's up to us to show these people exactly what this election is about.
We want to take America back.
We want the America first MAGA agenda to be the priority going into the polls in not just the primaries, but in November.
Because when you look at what the fake Biden administration pulled last night, and how they are threatening our America in everything that they are doing, we need to send people that are not going to tolerate the Democrats, that are going to be a hard conservative and not waffle like the Nikki Haley's of the world and the Nancy Mace's of the world.
So please get to the website katieforsd.com.
Please tell anyone you know in South Carolina to get out the vote.
Vote for Katie Arrington in SC1.
Vote for Russell Fry in SC6.
And we have got to take this House back with a supermajority in the House and a supermajority in the Senate to stop this woke agenda from brutalizing our nation.
I mean, I can't... When we led in the supply chain, when Peter and I were working the supply chain during the pandemic, none of this happened, folks.
None of this The empty store shelves, the baby formula crisis, the energy crisis, because we cared about America.
We were about America first.
We were under Donald J. Trump and we wanted to see America succeed.
And what you're seeing right now are people who do not want America to succeed.
They don't want you.
They don't want your children's children to have the same freedoms that we have.
We have all enjoyed our lifetime.
And I'm 51.
But I have four grandkids, and right now what we're going to turn over to these kids isn't in a country that I remember.
And we have got to be loud, be proud, show up and vote, donate and get behind candidates that are going to bring back America first.
steve bannon
Katie Arrington, thank you very much for joining us, ma'am.
Fight on.
unidentified
Amen.
Thank you.
steve bannon
I want to play that.
American Principal's got that spot about Nancy Mace.
Nancy Mace is all for the transgender agenda.
One thousand percent.
So we're going to play that later.
Don't have it right yet.
Let's bring in... These fights in these primaries are tougher.
These rhinos are... Look, they're the establishment.
They're not going to give up.
They've got plenty of money and they're not going to stop.
Let's get Carrie Lake in here.
She's in a tough fight there in Arizona.
She's a Trump-endorsed candidate.
First off, you've got a lot of posters out there with yourself and President Trump.
Are people vandalizing those posters, ma'am?
kari lake
It's unbelievable.
You know, you'd think, okay, an occasional mustache is drawn on.
Down in southern Arizona, Steve, it looks like we have some sort of a vandal who's running around with an X-Acto knife.
We're cutting out the picture of President Trump.
Can you imagine anybody wanting to cut out President Trump's handsome face?
So all of our signs down there are being cut up, but every time, I'm just putting a warning out, every time one of these losers does that, we are going to put up three more signs and pretty soon they will be surrounded by pictures of President Trump.
steve bannon
Just a double down.
I love that.
We'd like to hold you through the break real quickly.
You've got a really hard tweet about Joe Biden.
Tell me, Joe Biden's doing what?
Holding school lunches back if they don't put the grooming agenda in?
Is that what I'm hearing?
kari lake
Yeah, Steve.
It looks like he's taking our federal dollars, which is outrageous.
You know, we send our taxes to Washington and then they decide how much we're going to give back.
And he's holding our kids hostage.
He's threatening basically to starve our kids, not send the National School Lunch Program funds out if these schools do not adopt this perverted sexual agenda of grooming our children.
And I'm telling you, the moms and dads out there have had it.
We would rather say, take that money and shove it, than push this agenda on our children.
It's dangerous and we're not going to allow our kids to be groomed in school anymore.
I mean, they've really gone and awoken a sleeping giant in moms and dads.
And we are going to show up in mass to vote.
And it's going to be a red wave that they are not prepared for.
And we are going to right this ship.
And they don't know what's coming.
steve bannon
Kerry, just hang on for one second.
We're going to take a short commercial break.
We have Kerry Lake, the Trump-endorsed Republican candidate running for governor in Arizona.
We've got Joe Kent out in Washington, another Trump-endorsed candidate that's going to join us here momentarily also.
We've got a lot on Ukraine, a lot on economics, capital markets, all of it.
Then we're going to go to Florida, talk about our wins down there.
It's a Friday in June, the first Friday in June, in the War Room.
unidentified
Be back in a moment.
We rejoice when there's no more. Let's take down the CCP.
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.
Oh Okay, welcome back to The War Room.
steve bannon
Make sure to go to MyPillow.com.
We've got a big summer sales going.
Buy one, get one free.
You've got that in the towels, the pillows, the sheets.
These are extraordinary offers, so go check it out.
Also, the slippers.
$139 and they are worth every penny of that, but now they're $49.
But you've got to get them while they're getting as good because it's not going to last forever.
Go to MyPillow.com.
Promo Code War Room.
We're waiting for the Haldeman Report, trying to track that down.
It's supposed to be released in some sort of redacted version today.
Remember, the media is trying to get ahead of it.
That's why they had the stories last Friday in the Washington Post, to kind of get a week ahead of it.
They're trying to prep the battlefield on this whole issue of machines, which the Haldeman Report will come out today and you guys make a decision.
You get to read it and tell us what you think.
Carrie, just one more time, I want to make sure this sinks in because it's so radical what they're trying to do.
They're going to hold back the school lunch program and I want every, this really affects big time the minority students, right, who a lot of them depend upon this.
They would hold that back Until they fully implement the grooming project.
I just want to make sure people understand that.
They're prepared to hold food back.
They have a war on the family, but you know what they're trying to do is the children.
They want to kill them in the womb.
They want to starve them with no formula and not lift a finger and know about it.
They let these maniacs, these kids, these savages, You know, get all twisted and then won't protect them in school.
And now you got the thing that they go to school and get in the lunch program and they would hold that back unless you fully implement the grooming so they can put the poison in their mind.
Put the poison in their mind when they're five and six and seven years old.
We should never be having these discussions.
Ever.
They're trying to poison us.
This is the type of people we're dealing with.
Go ahead, Carrie.
kari lake
This is really them going after the parents.
Now that the parents have risen up and said, no way, we will do whatever we can to stop this grooming of our children.
And the parents are getting on the school boards where they're starting to change the curriculum or where they're going to, where the parents are running for office, where the legislature is listening to the parents and saying we're going to ban This grooming and this perversion and where we get governors like me running who say not on my watch.
So now the federal government's panicking going.
Wow.
How do we make an end round?
How do we go around all those parents?
Oh, we'll just take and hold back the money for food for their kids.
It's disgusting.
They take money from our paycheck hard-earned money.
The federal government does this illegitimate government takes money out of our paychecks.
And they steal it from us and take it to Washington, D.C., and then they dangle it in front of us.
And if we don't adopt the perversion they're pushing and the outrageous policies that hurt our families and hurt our communities, they threaten to withhold that money.
You know, I tell them, shove it.
We don't want that money.
We do not want that money.
We will not allow you to push this agenda on our children and poison their minds and poison our future.
steve bannon
Carrie, you've also had another million dollars, I guess, drop during the last couple days.
Give us the status of the race, you versus the controlled opposition establishment.
kari lake
Yeah, I'm running against a rhino.
It's so funny, you know, they know that, they know that our policies, the MAGA movement, the America First movement, is the winning, is the winning movement.
Not just because we win races, but because it's the right policy.
So my MAGA, my opponent is trying to act like she's MAGA in her ads.
She's spending her 95-year-old husband's billions of dollars and running a huge campaign.
More money has been pumped into this primary statewide than any other race we've ever seen.
And she's trying to act like she's America first.
She's America last.
She's pro-abortion.
She's anti-Second Amendment.
She is pushing illegal immigrants to get cheaper tuition than American students.
And when she was on the Board of Regents, she did not Carrie, how do people find out more about you and your campaign?
Thank you for asking.
CarrieLake.com, C-A-R-R-I-L-A-K-E dot com.
and the mandates. She's bad for Arizona and we're not going to let her win. I don't care how much money she pours into this race. We will win because we're on the right side of history.
steve bannon
Kerry, how do people find out more about you and your campaign?
kari lake
Thank you for asking. Kerrylake.com. K-A-R-I-L-A-K-E.com.
You mentioned the CISA report coming out about I'm involved in a lawsuit here in Arizona.
We're fighting to ban those machines.
It is moving along.
And so everybody out there, give us a prayer because we want to make sure we don't have those corruptible machines that have no transparency and no security running our elections.
steve bannon
No, this is big.
As soon as it comes out, in fact, we're going to get you back on and talk about your lawsuit, because your lawsuit's really the manifestation of the response to what the Haldeman Report's going to say.
So, we know there's something big here because the media's been out in front of this for a week.
They're prepping the battlefield.
They understand they've got a problem.
Haldeman's report's going to be a big problem for them.
unidentified
Yes, they are.
kari lake
They're trying to run around and act like they You're right.
They're prepping the battlefield.
We will win this battle, but it's been kind of fun to watch them as they try to twist around and start covering these stories that they're eventually going to have to cover.
steve bannon
The tip of the tip of the spear.
Carrie Lake out in Arizona.
The great state of Arizona.
The railhead of MAGA movement.
Thank you, ma'am.
Appreciate you coming on.
kari lake
Thanks, Steve.
steve bannon
By the way, we had Blake on last night.
Blake Masters got endorsed last night.
I think we were the first show that he did.
He was at one of these candidate forums.
It's not really a debate, but it's a candidate forum.
Of course, his two biggest opponents never show up.
Maybe they will now that he's endorsed, but Blake was good enough to come on.
These are the primaries, as they should be.
It's healthy to have contested primaries, but I'm telling you, their establishment is not backing off.
They're dumping money, whether it's in South Carolina, Arizona, All over the place.
They're dumping money everywhere, including the state of Washington.
Let's go to Joe Kent.
We've got Ben Harnwall and Ben Burkham we're going to follow.
We've got big updates on Ukraine.
We've got big updates on the southern border in Uvalde.
Ben Burkham's down there, but we're going to start with Joe Kent.
Joe, I've been putting up stuff all morning on my Getter account.
Please, everybody in the audience, join Getter.
You can follow me 24-7.
I've been put up a lot of stuff about Ukraine.
It's the 100th day of the war, and obviously everything we warned about, everything we said was going to happen, is happening right now.
But I think it's being exposed about how much the Biden regime and the Atlanticist are just underwriting this with American citizens' money.
You know, the Europeans are not putting anything in it.
It's all us, and we're continuing to be the force of escalation here.
Joe Kent, what say you, sir?
joe kent
This really shows that our ruling class, Republicans and Democrats, were always their last priority.
We just sent $40 billion in the dead of night over to Ukraine while we can't afford to feed our babies, while our border is being absolutely besieged.
And people here, they're disgusted with it.
I think there was some sympathy at the very beginning of the Russian invasion for the Ukrainian people.
We still have that sympathy.
We still condemn Vladimir Putin, but we should be moving towards de-escalation.
However, no one is doing that.
The American taxpayers, the deplorables, We're expected to pony up, send money over there, money that we don't have that could be allocated in much more needed places right here at home.
And I think the American people at every single level are really seeing that.
And so I think we're going to see the establishment, like the woman that I'm running against, Jamie Hara Butler, the impeachment voter, pro open borders, pro shipping our jobs overseas, pro every single war in escalation.
They're really trying to run away from this agenda, but we're not going to let them do it.
We're going to make them, we're going to hold them accountable for their America last voting records.
steve bannon
This is what I don't understand.
How can somebody with such an atrocious voting record?
I mean, it's abysmal.
Given the folks out in Washington, particularly where the district is, how could they possibly want that as their representation?
I mean, she's just stone cold.
She's one of the worst of I mean, she's kind of a Democrat-lite.
When I say centrist, I mean, she's kind of center-left.
She's a moderate Democrat.
It just lies in spin, and what do we need to do just to make sure?
If people have information, there's no way she can win.
She's probably the worst of the worst, Joe Kemp.
joe kent
He really is, Steve.
I like to tell people she makes Liz Cheney actually look like a true conservative, if that tells you anything.
If you just look through her record, it is a who's who of how the globalists and the Uniparty sells out the American people.
Here's the deal, though.
She's never faced a primary challenge, not a serious one, not one that's actually exceeding her and beating her in the polls, which we're doing in all the independent polling.
And that's because the establishment here has really always threatened the conservative voters out here and said, hey, because of our jungle primary system, We have to consolidate around this one anointed chosen Republican.
Otherwise, the Democrats will just take over the entire district, which has scared people into voting for Republican.
I've done it.
I voted for the incumbent because there was no other options other than very radical, progressive Democrats.
But that's all changing now.
The establishment has to adapt.
Unfortunately, they're not.
They're continuing to back the incumbent, which really just exposes the establishment for wanting to bring back the old failed policies of the neoconservatives, the Bushes and the Cheneys.
But right now we're exceeding, we're beating the incumbent in all of the polling, and that just shows the groundswell that the actual policies of the America First, the Trump movement, has with the base and with the true American people.
steve bannon
How can people find out more about this campaign?
joe kent
Yeah, please go to joekentforcongress.com.
Any support folks can give is greatly appreciated.
I have Kevin McCarthy, Super PACs are coming after me.
The DNC, the Democrats are also coming after me.
But we're leading in all the independent polls at joekentforcongress.com.
You can help us out and you can also check out the latest Trafalgar poll that has me up by seven points.
steve bannon
Joe Kent, thank you very much.
Honored to have you on here.
joe kent
Thank you very much, Steve.
steve bannon
We appreciate it.
We have Harnewal and Birquam.
Let's go to Ben Harnewal.
Ben, give us your assessment.
It's the 100th day of the war.
You've done a lot of consolidation and aggregation of all these news stories that are coming out right now.
Give us your assessment.
ben harnwell
Morning, Steve.
Well, the first thing to note continues from what we were saying In the last two days, it's this pivot that the mainstream media around the world is starting to make, saying, you know, there's fatigue setting in regarding Ukraine, people want to move on.
Interestingly, the article today, I think, which we've already put out on GitHub, has the headline, the West is starting to feel Ukraine fatigue.
In and of itself, that article It is interesting, but more than that, it's the journalist who wrote it, Edward Luce, the very senior art journalist at BFT, because this is a pivot in slow motion.
Two months ago, let's just have a look at whom he was attacking on Twitter.
This is what he said on the 8th of March of this year.
Donald Trump, Paul Manafort, Roger Stone, George Papadopoulos, Donald Trump Jr, Eric Trump, Jared Kushner, Ivanka Trump, Rick Grenell, Steve Bannon, Tucker Carlson.
I could use up 10 tweet threads, says Edward Luce, and not exhaust the list of Mar-a-Lago groupies rooting for Putin against Ukraine.
And that's what he says on Twitter.
And two months later, he basically says, as if that's always been his position, that there's fatigue setting in and, you know, Putin's doing quite well in the war, perhaps he's going to hold on and, you know, perhaps Zelensky should be considering his terms.
That's what the war room has been saying, really, since the first week of this war.
And if we'd have been in this situation, If the international community had been saying what the War Room has been saying consistently for three months, think how many lives in Ukraine would have been saved, how much money, how much American taxpayers' money would be saved and available to be invested in other things like roads, hospitals, baby formula.
We are where we are now as a consequence of decisions that have been made.
And Steve, these things have consequences.
Because here is the reality of the situation.
Russia has been looking at the way the West has been supporting Ukraine and making statements.
I won't call them threats, it's been making statements.
It's up to everyone, every rational human being, to look at what Russia is saying and see for themselves whether they think these warnings are credible or not.
unidentified
What Russia has been saying, and here I want to quote directly I tell you what, Ben, just hang on for one second.
steve bannon
Let's take a commercial break.
We'll take a short commercial break.
We'll be back.
We've got Ben Harnwell talking about the 100th day of Ukraine.
Tomorrow we have a special.
Jack Posobiec, myself, Ben Harnwell, just the three of us.
We're going to go through Taiwan, Ukraine, all of it.
The impact it's going to have on you.
The impact it's having on the world.
It's pretty extraordinary.
A special tomorrow for two hours in the world.
Of course, we'll be breaking news the entire time.
Be back here in a minute.

Okay, tomorrow we have a two-hour special.
It's around Tiananmen Square, but the focus is on the geopolitics of what's happened since in Ukraine and also in the South China Sea and Taiwan, the impact it's going to have on your life.
Jack Posobiec is going to be with us, and Jack's going to give us the first-time details of his trip.
It took a 700-mile, I think 40-hour train trip to actually the front.
In Odessa and beyond, in the Ukraine.
It's an incredible story, so you're going to want to be there for all of it.
Also Ben Harnwell is going to be joining us from Rome.
Ben, this whole thing, here's the thing.
If you listen to Jonathan Swan's interview with Zelensky last week at Davos, here's what's happening.
I'm going to give you signal, not noise.
Because they're being funded by the arms industry, Unlimited.
You've got the Lindsey Graham guys running around.
And they're making the decisions for us.
There's no downside to the ruling class of Ukraine.
And these guys right now, although it's announced that Putin controls 20% of the land, and they're not giving up, and they're making headway in consolidating the land bridge to Crimea, and Eastern Russian-speaking Ukraine, everything they want for their first war aims, The Ukrainian military command and Zelensky, the political command, although the focus has dropped, and Axios did that, the impression is people aren't paying attention anymore, particularly as it starts to cost the Europeans money.
The politicians don't want to talk about it and the media doesn't want to cover it.
The Ukrainians are going to get more aggressive on the military side, on the check that you're writing American public.
And then you're going to have this thing crab totally sideways.
So we're in a situation where they're actually not winning, but since they're being backed, why should they stop?
As soon as they stop, they're not going to get any backing at all.
So they're going to go and I'm telling you, just watch Crimea.
Watch the land bridge in Crimea.
Watch Crimea.
More to come here.
They're saying now this war could go on forever.
It can only go on forever as long as you, the American people, underwrite it.
So if you're prepared to have these politicians make these decisions for you, and you're prepared to underwrite it in the middle of a financial and economic crisis, go for it.
Go do it.
Zero Hedge has got that chart.
Put that chart up.
You're financing the entire thing.
And for the people on the podcast, I think we're putting up $24 or $5 billion.
The rest of the world's putting up a couple of billion.
In Germany, I think it's putting up a billion.
It's a joke.
And they're buying all the natural gas at cheap prices.
They're not going to change.
Ben Harnwell.
ben harnwell
Yes, Steve, that's exactly it.
In fact, there's a certain tension in operation amongst our globalist elite, because over the last three months, the various governments, led by, of course, the United States, have been moving further and further into an all-in, a de facto all-in position in defending Ukraine.
And what we've just seen in the chart that you're referring to, the Axios, which I think you put out on your own get a feed this morning, which illustrates that's the one that in indicating how the social media interaction is just basically falling off a cliff now.
As our elite are moving further and further and committing the West to ever further involvement in Ukraine, the peoples themselves, the taxpayers are moving in the opposite direction.
And that tension is only going to grow.
So the second thing I would add to that, and this is something I've said really about a month or so, is that the United States, by its president, should be insisting on a seat at the table in all negotiations between Ukraine and Russia, because it is absurd for the United States to say.
Vladimir Zelensky, you decide how much we, America, have to pay for your defence.
You decide.
Nothing about Ukraine without Ukraine.
You decide.
We're outsourcing the decision to you, but we will pay.
That is an absurd situation.
And all it's going to do is grind that country ever further down into the dust.
And of course, When the settlement is eventually being reached, at whatever point, you Americans are then going to be on the line to pay for the rebuilding of this country.
So Biden, President Biden, should absolutely be insisting on a seat at the table and retract this guarantee.
I will close, Steve, with a very similar parallel point.
Russia has said, it's said by Sergey Lavrov and it's said by Dmitry Peskov, that if Ukraine uses these missiles to fire inside Russia, Russia will respond against the United States.
unidentified
Okay?
ben harnwell
Now, as the wars, as we've just been mentioning on this segment, the war The director of the war is receding ever so slightly now out of Vladimir Zelensky's grasp.
At some point he's going to become increasingly desperate now.
You just said it yourself in your introduction.
It is already in the US military industrial complex interest to continue this war.
It is now increasingly In Ukraine's interest to bring the United States into this war formally so it can be defended.
And there's a parallel here between Britain and FDR, Churchill and FDR in the Second World War, right?
All that Vladimir Zelensky needs to do is to launch these missiles that Biden has given him into Russia.
Russia will respond attacking America and America will enter.
This is a straightforward three domino chain.
Not very complicated.
And what Biden has done is that he has contracted out to Ukraine the decision as to whether the United States will formally enter this war or not.
And that is a terrifying situation for the world to be in.
steve bannon
Yeah.
Ben, real quickly, how do people get to find you on Getter?
ben harnwell
Thanks, Steve.
Yeah, just go to the, it's my surname, at Hanwell, at Hanwell.
Do follow the account with the red V mark, because there are imposter accounts out there.
And I'm there 24-7.
steve bannon
Okay, I want everybody to go there and check Ben out.
By the way, Ben just told you, they have the authority now to fire those rockets.
They say they promise they won't, and they're dragging the United States into the war.
Go to my Getter account, look at Turkey.
Turkey's got hyperinflation and food and fuel.
It's going to be the next Sri Lanka.
Hey, the dominoes are going to fall because of feckless policy.
Short break, 90 seconds, back in the War Room.
