This is the primal scream of a dying regime.
unidentified
Pray for our enemies, because we're going medieval on these people.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
I got a free shot at all these networks lying about the people.
The people have had a belly full of it.
I know you don't like hearing that.
I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it.
It's going to happen.
jake tapper ▲ ● ▼
And where do people like that go to share the big lie?
MAGA Media. I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
unidentified
Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
If that answer is to save my country this country will be saved Here's your host Stephen K Schmuck Oh
Voila!
I'm not going to do it.
Эй, парни, как вы там?
Сейчас потанцуем!
Есть! Сука!
Попал! Прямое попадание, борщ!
Прямое попадание!
Блинтаж! Well, what? Well, what, guys?
We live in this way. Everything will be Ukraine.
We'll kill all bitches. Where do we go?
We go, right? What is your assessment of what's happening now?
Is this all relatively new or was this going on during the Obama administration?
And I guess the third question is, what do you think this pretends for the future of the U.S.-China relationship?
Well, first of all, it appears that the U.S. military and intelligence community are now being able to track these things and go back over years and years of signals and determine that the Chinese have been using these balloon spy apparatus for quite some time over many, many countries and even during the Trump administration.
But they weren't able to detect it then.
But since then, the technology and what they've been able to piece together, they've been able to backtrack and say, What's really important is that we know it's a spy balloon.
The Chinese will, of course, deny it.
The same way that the United States denied that we had a spy airplane with a human pilot in it going over Russia in 1960.
We said it was just for collecting weather information.
The Russians shot it down.
We still kept saying it was only for weather collection until the Russians collected the debris and the pilot and he confessed.
So what the Chinese are saying is absolutely normal.
They have to save face.
They're going to deny that they're involved in espionage the same way that we will deny that we're involved in spying on China.
We have airplanes that that come very close to the border of China, kind of listening in to the interior of China.
And of course, but we stay away because we know that airplanes can be shot down and we don't want to risk the lives of our pilots.
And because we actually have high-altitude satellites, virtually all the major countries of the world have high-altitude satellites spying on each other.
And so it's somewhat ironic that the Chinese are still using this low-tech method of surveillance.
Well, maybe they're doing both, right?
The low-tech and the high-tech.
I want to ask you about what you just said, though.
If a lot of this is just sort of performative, a performative outrage, did it make sense or does it make sense for us diplomatically to respond the way we have?
I'm talking specifically about Secretary Blinken canceling his trip to China over this incident.
Was that a wise move?
Oh, it had to be done. There was no way that the United States could continue to go forth with that trip.
And the same thing happened when the Russians shot down our U-2 airplane with Gary Powers the pilot in it back in 1960.
That incident happened shortly after a meeting of Khrushchev and Eisenhower and it was an indication of a thawing of relations and there was a high-level summit that was planned Just weeks or months after the downing of the U-2 plane, that had to be cancelled as well.
So no, this is a normal reaction because it was a very in-your-face operation by the Chinese.
And so we had to express our outrage.
And we had to cancel that visit.
Let's hope that they'll be able to resume that visit sometime in the future.
Because despite the huge differences between the United States and China over military ambitions, the operations of the Chinese in the South Pacific, around Taiwan, human rights, trade policies, nonetheless, the United States and China are so interdependent So much of what we buy in our daily lives in the stores at Costco, Target, Walmart, Home Depot, Nordstrom are made in China.
And we are farmers.
So much depend on selling what we grow to the people of China.
But more importantly, we need to work together to address climate change.
We need to work together to try to stop North Korea from developing an operational nuclear weapon.
Well, let me jump in there because, you know, it's very evident that our domestic politics has drifted solely in one direction.
There is no price to pay for being too aggressive and too hard on China.
It wasn't always this way, especially in the Democratic Party, too.
There used to be a threat of foreign policy thought that says, no, you need to work with China to open them up as a society so that they do not drift towards our adversaries.
Do you feel like our domestic political perceptions of China have gone too far in the anti-China direction.
Well, you know, this is an issue that's been brought up by Democrats and Republicans at every election.
Candidates for president on both sides will say we need to get tougher on China because the United States and our businesses and many people and countries and policymakers from around the world feel that China has not lived up to its promises when it entered the WTO,
when the Western countries opened their borders to products coming from China, and China was supposed to reciprocate on a slower pace, but nonetheless, they were supposed to reciprocate and open up their borders to foreign investment, to products by Western countries being sold in China.
And a lot of that still has not occurred.
And of course, issues about theft of intellectual property, copying our goods, our products.
And so there's been a long simmering frustration with China, and both parties have been getting tough.
But it was both parties that really welcomed China coming into the WTO. It was a Republican, of course, President Nixon, that first went to China and started the engagement with China.
So a lot of hopes on both sides, but a lot of disappointment on both sides.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Okay, Saturday, 11 February in the year of our Lord, 2023.
I just, you know, it's so important.
For this audience that is the chairman of the creditors committee of the bankruptcy of the United States and are the protectors ultimately the full faith and credit.
Also, you know, we're gonna have to put you as chairman of the War Committee because we are in World War Three as we keep telling you and right there.
You see the running dogs of MSNBC and NBC and Comcast Cable and all these, the Roberts family, they're all running dogs.
for the Chinese Communist Party.
That was one continual lie, misrepresentation, and spin by Obama.
You want to know one of the reasons we're in such a jam with the Chinese Communist Party?
That's Obama's, that's the type of person you had representing your country in Beijing.
And if you don't think they don't laugh when they see marshmallows like that there, kowtowing the entire time.
I want to make sure, and we're going to play it later, What he even admitted to, and this is why, and when I start harping on things, there's a reason.
Because you heard about the classified briefing yesterday.
It's not a full classified briefing.
It's not the gang of A's, not the super high level.
At least it hasn't been let out.
But right there, he goes, because MSNBC, Sam Stein's trying to sell the Blinken meeting.
Blinken still should have gone, right?
Still should. And he says, no, it's in your face.
Remember, The Biden administration knew that the spy balloon was coming over Alaska in the lower 48.
It was already in Montana for a day or two.
Over looking at the ICBM, the Air Force Base.
The Air Force Base and taking all that information, including cell phone information, in the lower 48.
The Biden administration knew this and hid this.
The Biden regime hid this.
They were only outed.
So when he goes, yes, obviously you had to cancel the meeting.
It was so in your face. Biden and his regime knew this and were trying to hold it from the American people until Blinken got on the plane so that Blinken could go and rub up on Xi.
And so at the State of the Union, he could say, hey, you know, bad Trump, evil Trump, bad Navarro.
Bad Pompeo, bad Bannon, right?
Evil people, bad people, getting us into war with the CCP. I'm the peacemaker.
Tony Blinken's over there kowtowing, but this is what we need.
But remember, the high church theology right there, I said the choir part out loud, we need to work with China on climate change.
Are they working on climate change?
The reason we pull the Paris Accord is that they're getting all the benefits of the industrialized West on a suicide mission to basically transition.
As Biden said, hey, I think we're going to need oil and gas for at least 10 years.
For at least 10 years.
This is a guy with a two-digit IQ. At least 10 years.
They're going to need it for at least a decade.
Because we've got to work with the CCP where they're building, what, 50 coal plants a month?
Remember he said the domestic what shifted is because of this audience.
I'm proud to have been one of the leaders of that to shift to make sure this the Chinese Communist Party and understand where it war with them.
Also your nation when I call sleepwalking this audience cannot be part of the sleepwalking into this conflagration.
Okay, because that's what's going to happen.
Your nation and it took place at two o'clock one or two o'clock in the morning.
Friday morning, it was released I think around noon yesterday, we launched with no warhead, no warhead and ICBM for a test, but it's clearly the optics of it, you know, a test, right, to basically shoot it into the Marshall Islands, where ironically we were fighting 80 years ago, the Imperial Japanese Navy and the Imperial Japanese Army.
We're heading, we're sleepwalking into a broader More brutal conflict.
I've got up on Getter right now, the Serbian president.
Serbian president sitting there going, hey, you think this thing's bad now?
By next summer, the next six months, you haven't seen anything.
It's going to be so bad and we are going to get crushed in this.
The whole region is going to get crushed in this.
The government of Moldova, we told you yesterday, the pro-Western, it's a small country, a couple of million people, right?
It's one of the ones that's been back and forth between Poland and Romania.
I mean, this is the killing ground.
It's the bloodlands. Right?
It's the bloodlands. But their pro-Western government essentially fell.
Now they've got a pro-EU person to step in.
But hey, because people understand this conflict is starting to expand.
It's starting to expand.
Why is it expanding? Because now the Russian army has remanned, reloaded, Everybody said, you know, all these idiots in the first couple of months, oh, it's over, it's over.
They haven't studied the history of World War II. Russians got pushed back all the way to Stalingrad and Leningrad, all of it.
They got pushed all the way back, and then they held, and then they came back.
And they don't care how many people they kill.
They do not care how many people die.
It is pure attrition warfare.
And we are underwriting it.
Biden's about to go to Poland, and what's he said yesterday?
Whatever they need for however long they need it.
Unlimited. And you had Matt Gaetz, and we had Andy Biggs on here yesterday, some very brave, the MAGA, the people from the Mighty 20.
And the Magnificent Six have put now a resolution to force Biden to come in front of the nation so we don't sleepwalk into this with a war powers resolution and make him put before the country why we should be in this war on the Eurasian landmass fighting on the eastern border of the Russian-speaking eastern border of Ukraine when six million illegal aliens have now powered into your country.
Okay, one year from this week or next week, one year roughly, Iowa is going to start the determination who's going to be the Republican nominee in 2024.
We're going to go to Iowa.
We got Matt Kittle. They just launched a new news site under Michael Patrick Leahy and our own Ben Burquam.
Carrie Lakes in Iowa, and guess what?
So is the War Room.
unidentified
All next. Let's take down the CCP! It's the right thing to do.
kari lake ▲ ● ▼
I got onto my dad, and I kind of talked circularly, and now I'm going back over to him.
But he said, stay in the fight.
But if you lose, you lose with dignity.
You shake the other person's hand, and you walk away.
I didn't lose, so I'm not doing that.
And we're going to take this all the way along.
Like I said, the appeals court, they're deciding it right now.
They kind of work on their own sweet time.
God bless them. We need you to say prayers for the judges.
We're about to find out truly how corrupt our system is because we have a mountain of evidence and we have the law on our side.
And if we cannot contest elections that are dirty, rotten, horrible, stolen elections, then we're in trouble.
And I believe that we will find some judges who have the courage to do the right thing.
We've got to pray for them.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Okay. Right there at the beginning, that shot.
I'm going to get Burkham in here in a second.
Let me be blunt.
There's one person That's running for president or aspires to run for president that could draw that crowd in Iowa.
And that is Donald J. Trump.
Okay? I'm not so sure DeSantis could draw that type of crowd.
Nikki Haley, the Keebler elves, you could round up everything they got and wouldn't be that size crowd.
And that's on a Friday afternoon.
Absolutely incredible. One year from today, let's think downrange.
Iowa will be in the process for one year from approximately.
Today, right?
Maybe actually be in New Hampshire, but that's close enough.
Iowa will kick off with the caucuses, determined.
In 1940, when FDR ran for his third term, ran for his third term which was kind of unprecedented, ran for his third term.
He bald-faced lied to the American people.
He was running against a businessman, kind of a Donald Trump type person, Wendell Willkie.
And he looked people in the eye and he lied to them.
He said, under no circumstances, no circumstances, zero, will your boys be fighting in another European war.
Remember, World War I was not viewed here afterwards as a great deal.
You had heroes, Sergeant York and others, right?
You had some of the music and the doughboys and blackjack pershing and all that, and people were very proud.
Don't get me wrong, we're very proud.
But the cemeteries over there, I mean, they weren't used to this level of slaughter.
The memories of the Civil War had faded.
So you don't go back in time.
There's not a lot of pining for, we want to go back to Europe and do it again.
In fact, FDR looked him in the eye, and the only way he won the presidency the third time was to tell him, hey, I'm going to still get you out of the Great Depression, I'm working on it, but under no circumstances will we ever be in a European war again.
American boys and girls will not go over there and die.
This is how Iowa and what's happening in Iowa is directly related to what's happening in Beijing and what's happening in the slaughterhouse.
of the Ukraine directly.
And this is going to be a massive campaign issue.
And this is why, whether you like him or you can't stand him, there's nobody else in political leadership in this nation that can sort this mess out than Donald J. Trump with all his flaws.
In all his tweets, in all the, you know, sometimes, you know, uncomfortable things he says, I don't care.
I don't care.
Here's what I care about.
What we care about is not getting sucked into a kinetic third world war, okay?
That, trust me, this country is not ready for.
It's not ready for it. In the lies and misrepresentations, the head of the Tory party in Commons said on Friday to the Financial Times of London, he chairs the equivalent of their Armed Services Committee, that the United Kingdom's military Would be destroyed, finished over in five days of combat.
And they, ladies and gentlemen, are our only true military ally in Europe.
The rest of it is kind of a joke.
The polls got something.
The rest of it's a clown show.
Let me be blunt. Okay?
That's NATO. It's a protectorate.
This is why Iowa is important.
This is why New Hampshire is important.
This is why South Carolina is important.
And most importantly, most important is the people that are in that room.
Because that's MAGA. And MAGA is now going to be called to save this nation.
And this is why you think it's a random event.
The New York Times and the Brookings Institute, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Chinese Communist Party, one of the great institutions we had in this country years ago, liberal, now totally owned by the Chinese Communist Party.
And the New York Times comes out with their, oh, the most disinformation, yeah, going against their narrative.
As someone said in the Getter Chat, we call them direct hits.
And we're not backing off one inch.
You know why? We're on the right side of history.
And we're doing what's right for this nation.
And we're not backing off one inch.
Not one inch. And trust me, they laughed at me with populism.
They laughed at me at national when it started.
They laughed at me when I started. All the China stuff.
What are you talking about? China's our partner.
China's our president. No, no, no, no.
It's not China or the Chinese people.
It's the CCP. Conversations changed a little bit.
Sam Stein said, we're going to win this.
But the only way we're going to win it is you have to put your shoulder to the wheel and not back up one inch.
Let's go to Ben Burquam, Real America's Voice lead investigative reporter.
He ain't on the border today.
He's in Iowa. Tell me about it, Ben.
A little cold there. Tell me about the reception for Cary Lake.
ben bergquam ▲ ● ▼
Yeah, it was huge.
And you mentioned it in the last segment about saying the quiet part out loud.
Climate change is the Trojan horse.
It's all part of this global reset.
The one thing I'm waiting to hear is somebody say, peace in our time.
I mean, that's basically where we're at with China, with Russia, with all these guys.
These are the same people that are pushing these lives, that are destroying our border, destroying our country.
And destroying our elections.
And so Carrie Lake came here.
Really the keys, when I talked to her yesterday, the keys are election integrity and the border.
Everything else, if we don't have those two things, we don't have a country.
Everything else goes on top of that.
Then, you know, follows the...
Our economic system, all of the energy system that the Democrats are destroying.
But it's all couched.
Everything the left does is couched under climate change, under racism, under LGBT. It's all a distraction so they can lie to the American people and keep pushing this communist ideology.
But it's all connected, and that's why she's here.
She's actually coming to just outside Des Moines later today, and we're going to be covering that as well.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Let me have it. I think you did a great interview with her.
Do we have it? Let's play a clip from that, Ben Burkwam.
unidentified
What do you make of the State of the Union we just saw a couple days ago?
Oh my gosh. The State of the Union as it stands today versus under President Trump.
kari lake ▲ ● ▼
Well, I thought President Trump's last State of the Union address was the greatest we've ever had.
And he had so many accomplishments, and I'm looking forward to him getting back in office and bringing us more accomplishments.
It was funny that Joe Biden liked to take credit for everything.
Everything good that he took credit for was something that President Trump had put into play.
We, you know, I think watching him and watching the partisanship there, watching the Democrats just clap and get all excited about what he was spewing out, it was sad.
It was a sad day. Some people were criticizing Republicans because somebody yelled out, you're a liar or something like that.
But that's the truth.
He talked about fentanyl, and he's the reason we have a fentanyl crisis.
He opened the border within minutes of him taking office.
He told the world, come on over, come on across the border, in so many words.
And he pulled back every single policy that President Trump had put into place to secure our border.
And Arizona is suffering so greatly because of that.
And Iowa is suffering.
The fentanyl crisis.
I just spoke to a woman whose son died of a fentanyl overdose.
It wasn't an overdose. It was a poisoning.
And now his 10-year-old son is left without a dad.
And we're sick and tired of it.
And Joe Biden is a joke.
He's a laughing stock.
And we're going to watch as he destroys this country.
And we've got to get President Trump back in to turn things around.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Ben, you know, Nikki Haley, Mike Pompeo, John Bolton, Sununu, Christy, name them, round them all up, the Keebler Elves, the 12 Keebler Elves, combined, couldn't draw that type of crowd.
Give me the feel. Why was the crowd there for a woman who is still fighting to win the governorship of Arizona?
It's in the courts now. She's got a very strong appeal.
But why would they turn out for someone who's not a candidate?
She's a hometown girl, right?
ben bergquam ▲ ● ▼
But why would they turn out? It's very simple, Steve.
America's looking for fighters.
America, like you said, regardless of the tweets, regardless of what President Trump said, they love President Trump because President Trump punches back on the mouth.
And Carrie Lake is the same way.
Other than President Trump, there's no better articulator of the MAGA message than Carrie Lake.
That's why they came out. They saw her in Arizona.
They saw her as the fighter in Arizona.
They all see The fraud that is happening in Arizona, but they also see her as bigger than just Arizona.
So there's a coalescing.
There's a hunger. People in America are hungry for fighters that are going to take the fight back to the left.
Stop apologizing.
Stop accepting the premise of the left and saying, nope, we're going to take the fight right back to you.
We're going to win this country.
Because if we don't, if this generation doesn't do it, if 2024 doesn't do it, our kids, our grandkids, they're going to have to pay the consequences.
That's what they're looking for.
They want President Trump and they want fighters like Carrie Lake.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Okay, Ben, hang on for one second.
We're going to go back. We have Ben Burquam in Iowa.
We have Matt Kittle is going to join us.
Michael Patrick Leahy, the Star News Network, just launched their Iowa edition.
We're here for the grand opening.
We're also going to go to Europe and get Ben Harnwell.
We have Carrie Lake later.
We have Mike Lindell later.
Joe Allen. We're packed wall-to-wall today.
Saturday, my favorite show.
End of the work week. All in the war room.

We're going to have a lot of audience interaction, introduce a lot of you guys to the country, all of that.
Be there for four days. March 1st through 4th.
Kerry Lake, Candace Owens, President Trump, just tons of people in all the breakout rooms, all of it, and many of the contributors you see here at the War Room every day.

Michael Patrick Lay had this vision of doing the Battleground States and doing these new sites, and it's just been incredible.
What you guys have accomplished.
Tell me about Iowa.
You're launching a new site.
I guess you launched a little earlier this morning, but you're launching a new site in the very important first state to kick off the caucuses next January, the Iowa caucuses.
Tell us about your new site, sir.
unidentified
You bet. Thank you, Steve. Iowa is still critical to the political map, whether the Democrats want to acknowledge that or not.
As you well know, the DNC has basically turned its back on Iowa, which has long been traditionally the first state to enter the fray, and it's Hawkeye-Cawkeye, if you will.
The Republicans here will still hold the first-in-the-nation caucuses, but the DNC, as I said, has turned its back on Iowa.
The Democrats here Want to continue to be the first in the nation to hold those caucuses?
They have to, by Iowa state law.
The issue is the DNC has gone into a different direction.
They don't think Iowa is diverse enough.
But Iowa, Steve, as you well know, as we just saw in the last segment, is very much, in many ways, Trump country.
And Carrie Lake, last night in the Quad Cities, and I think Today, in suburban Des Moines, we'll bring that full message and bring out the kind of crowd that we saw last night.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Look, here's what Iowa provides.
And it is Trump country.
Trump wins it now big.
And that's one of the reasons the Democrats don't like it.
But here's what's important of Iowa.
It's discernment. Iowa and New Hampshire, those flinty Yankees up in New Hampshire in this common sense heartland of America in Iowa, weigh and measure you, right?
They weigh and measure you. And this is very important.
It's important for the country.
This is retail politics.
You've got to go into those small rooms.
You've got to have the small gatherings. President Trump ran it a little differently.
But still, the Hawkeyes have a discernment that the nation depends upon.
I think it's great it starts in Iowa, and it's going to be very important.
That's why I think your site, Leahy, is always ahead of the curve.
Tell me about the site, and tell me about your thoughts on Cary Lake.
unidentified
You bet. As you said, we just launched last night.
You'll find all kinds of information on our site, theiowastar.com.
It includes the meeting last night that Carrie Lake had with so many good Iowans.
We will continue with our special Iowa Caucus Edition 2024.
We will continue to blanket coverage on Iowa, Iowa politics, all the stuff, particularly the kind of inside stuff we have here in the Des Moines area that no other publications can offer in many ways.
Frankly, as you know, the mainstream media refuses to offer.
You know, it's interesting about Carrie Lake.
Every story you see here in Iowa in the mainstream press, as you see in the New York Times or the Washington Post, they can't begin a lead without saying Carrie Lake has made all kinds of charges that aren't true.
They put this stuff in their lead.
When we know That the election integrity problems in Arizona, just as we've seen in the major states during the Zuckerbucks era of 2020, are very real, and they're very troubling, and what they hate is Carrie Lake is shining a big spotlight on it all.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Big time. Matt, how did they get to the site?
How did they get to you guys' social media?
What are the coordinates for Star News Network and all of it?
The work you're doing, the Tennessee Star is broken.
I think the most important thing of this Memphis situation with Mr.
Nichols about it being a targeted hit, about everything with the, you know, you broke the whole thing about The text messages and the relationship of the police officers, you know, female acquaintance with Mr.
Nichols and all this.
So you're doing great reporting.
unidentified
How do people get there? No, thank you so much.
Yeah, that's a big story.
We'll continue to follow up. But in terms of Iowa, the new site, again, launching theiowastar.com.
And as I said, we'll be at Cary Lake's session later on this afternoon in Ankeny, Iowa.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Thank you very much, sir. Appreciate it.
Matt Kittle from Star News Network, head reporter, head editor, political editor.
Let me go to Burkwam. Burkwam, how are you going to cover this today?
By the way, we'd love to get you back on for the end of the show because Carrie Lake's going to join us in the 11 o'clock hour.
Tell me about your coverage today of Carrie Lake's speech.
ben bergquam ▲ ● ▼
We're going to be starting, we'll have live coverage on the network, on all of our social platforms as well, starting at 5.30 Eastern Time.
I'll be with Amanda Head and covering it.
But as Matt just said, I just want to make one quick point.
The reason conservatives, Republicans, MAGA love Carrie Lake is the same reason they love President Trump, because they're not politicians.
But also there's one other piece that Carrie Lake has.
That she is against the mainstream media.
The mainstream media is the biggest enemy of the people right now.
It's why the mainstream media hates her because she can fight them because she was inside of that.
And that's one of the main reasons why they hate her.
So we're going to be covering that.
I think we're going to expect as big a turnout this afternoon, if not bigger, just outside in Ankeny, just outside Des Moines.

So the Real America's Voice coverage, 530, you've got Amanda Head, you've got Ben Burquam.
I'll talk to Captain Ben, and I think we'll pick up a live stream too, make sure all the posse gets into a chat.
I'll jump in there. I want to hear everybody, what they have to say.
This Carrie Lake, she is by far...
The most important surrogate for President Trump, bar none.
I mean, look at those crowds. Those are Trump-like.
Those are Trump. Mini-Trump.
Those are mini-Trump. She is Trump in heels because those are mini-Trump crowds.
But I'm telling you, the Keebler elves combined, the Keebler elves combined couldn't draw that crowd in that intensity, Ben.
Great job. Hopefully maybe get you back here before we finish up and not.
We'll see you at 530 today.
ben bergquam ▲ ● ▼
Just let me know. Yes, sir.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Thank you. Okay, Ben Burquam.
Ben had that great rally out in Phoenix.
He and Amanda Headman did such a great job as an anchor.
Okay, Ben Harnwell.
We're going to go from the heartland of this nation.
We're going to talk about the heartland, right?
The heartland of the world island.
What was it, Harnwell McKinder, the Scottish professor?
Came up with this concept of geopolitics and talked about the World Island.
People, if you really look at a real globe or a map, you'll see that the Western Hemisphere is really like a string of islands off of a massive, massive landmass, a massive island called the World Island.
That would be the Eurasian landmass and also Africa as it connects with it.
The theory was he who controls the heartland Controls the World Island.
And he controls the World Island, controls the world.
So American foreign policy since 1914, essentially, has been to make sure that no one power or group of powers controls the Eurasian landmass.
Now, right in front of our eyes, because of the compromise of the Biden regime, the Chinese Communist Party, they're the head gangsters.
They're the ones putting the deal together with Turkey and the mullahs in Persia, in Tehran, in Saudi Arabia.
They're doing these massive output deals.
Pakistan, they got mini-me in North Korea.
And that's where the guy goes, oh, you got to work with China.
North Korea is a vassal state to China, dude.
Write that down. Take your number two pencil out and write that down.
China controls North Korea, controls 100%, and uses it to keep us on the back foot with the nuclear weapons pointed right at Osaka and Tokyo.
Come on, man. That's 101 stuff.
That's not even advanced stuff.
That's basic. Ben Harnwell, you've been on top of this.
Right now you've got the politics of the elites and you got what the folks are thinking.
And what the folks are thinking, they're smelling a, they're seeing the images coming out of Ukraine and they don't want any part of that.
And they see they're getting sucked into it.
The Serbian president today has got a brutal assessment.
That's out there saying, hey, for people of the world, if you think what you've seen in the last year is bad, you ain't seen nothing yet because the worst part of this is going to come in about six months and then it's going to spin out of control and it can suck my country, Serbia, into this thing.
Ben Harnwell, your assessment.

Well, Steve, the declaration here of Alexander Vucic basically repeats in different words the article which we were analysing yesterday from the Daily Telegraph by Colonel Richard Kemp, which basically said, is still to come with the intensification of the Russian forces.
I don't know, Steve, if you want me to read the declaration itself, because it's quite short, or just home in.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Please, please, please.
ben harnwell ▲ ● ▼
So President Vutschich says, we are facing the biggest crisis in the world that we have seen since the Second World War.
What happened before is almost nothing compared to what awaits us.
I know that there is a big escalation ahead of us, and I hope that some people understand that we do not need it.
The next five or six months will be the heaviest conflicts.
Combat will be much stronger despite being very, very intense already.
I could write volumes of books about it, And the pressure on us will be twice or three times stronger.
And here, Steve, I think is my key phrase in this declaration.
Because I think everything basically revolves around what comes next.
Due to elections in 2024 in Europe and America, the West cannot afford to lose and will try to win in the conflict in Ukraine one way or another.
In this position, our country will literally find itself between a rock and a hard place.
Four to five months ago, it seemed clear that Ukraine, with the huge support of the collective West, was winning.
Now it's not so clear.
The first article in Politico, which I think, Steve, you had up on your feed a couple of days ago, Can it happen that Putin wins?
has already been published.
Now, on the one hand, there is a common position in the collective West, and on the other, almost unison, the unity of the Russian people after the declared dispatch of German tanks.
What he's alluding here are a number of points, but of course, Serbia has maintained, and this goes back to the beginning of Of President Vucic's presidency in, I think, 2017.
He has steered a very neutral line here between Russia and NATO, desperately trying to cultivate both sides.
And I'm not saying that this line here is following...
Do you want to give way for the break?
And then I'll come back and make my point.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
No, no, I want to hold on.
I want you to hold on.
Remember, we bombed Belgrade back in the 90s, right?
Because, hey, they were the Christian nation, so naturally we're gonna bomb them, right?
We bombed it back in the 90s.
They've always been part of the Russian sphere, right?
They're the first to admit that. So he looks at this with a certain angle of attack on it.
But there's a lot of truth there.
What we're not gonna do here in the war room, we're not gonna sleepwalk into this.
We're gonna be Cassandra.
We're gonna be upping the grill to make sure this catastrophe just doesn't come about next.

Okay, you have to understand the history of the slaughterhouse of the 20th century to understand the 21st century.
Remember, from 1914, from the Guns of August until the fall of the Berlin Wall, or let's even throw Tiananmen Square in there, I don't know, 200 million, some people say 250 million, a quarter of a billion people.
Either died from political violence or in wars or in famines related to wars or in pandemics related to wars, disease, all of it.
In future, you know, centuries, they'll look back to the 20th century as a dark age, right?
We've never had this type of slaughter because of technology.
Man's human nature hasn't changed, but the technology changed and allowed us to have mass slaughter.
The Holocaust with the Jews in the bloodlands, the extermination of the Ukrainian people in the Kansas of the heartland in Ukraine, starved to death by Stalin and the Bolsheviks.
The political murder, what they say in the bloodlands between 1932 and 1945, 14 million political murders, not acts of war, political murders, executions, exterminations.
A scale of barbarity that the world has never seen can comprehend.
And remember, in all of that, given the valor of the greatest generation, given the heroism of the greatest generation, the United States was virtually unscathed.
Pearl Harbor got hit. And I think later in Oregon, four or five people got hit by a Japanese bomb like in 1945.
But the homeland of the United States was untouched.
While the rest of the world is in a slaughterhouse.
Don't believe the Studs Terkel and these guys and Tom Brokaw with The Greatest Generation and The Good War and all that.
Yes, the call to arms of The Greatest Generation was incredible.
And we became the arsenal for democracy and actually revved up mass production in Detroit and other places.
To produce, you know, mass production of bombers, mass production of tanks and equipment and, you know, what, hundreds of aircraft carriers, right?
Not including destroyers and submarines.
Incredible. And the valor and heroism of the greatest generation was incredible.
But it was not a good war.
World War II is a war of annihilation.
And it ratcheted up In its brutality, as human nature, think about it, just like the Civil War.
As you continue to have combat, you continue to have more people dead, and you have families grieving, and they're saying, why did this happen?
There's anger, and that anger turns into a burning white hate, right?
Rage. Hatred.
And that's what happened in the war of annihilation.
The brutality was so awful on the Eastern Front between the Russians and the Germans and their allies.
In mainland China, right?
In the bombing and the firebombing over Japan.
The bombing over Germany because they would not surrender.
And they continued to have this slaughter.
The rage, the annihilation.
Because this is human nature.
This is what happened. This is the law of unintended consequences.
This is the fog of war.
And we're not going to sleepwalk into this thing.
We're not going to sleepwalk into this.
We cannot allow this to happen because this is beyond dangerous.
When they're throwing out these concepts of tactical nuclear weapons that might be used by the Russians during the liberation, the quote-unquote liberation of Crimea by combined arms warfare supplied by American tanks, Ben, the most chilling part of that, and it's chilling from the Serbian president, is the end, where he, almost as a throwaway, says the unity of the Russian people.
Remember, the Russian people were our allies in World War II. You can hear that on mainstream media.
The Russian people were our allies.
That victory in Stalingrad over the 6th Army 80 years ago was as important to save American boys and girls as the victory at Guadalcanal almost in the same week.
Okay? We know Guadalcanal, but we never talk about Stalingrad.
The most chilling thing that the Serbian president said at the end, Ben, was the unity of the Russian people when they see German tanks Going across Ukraine.
Can you read that again, the end of that?
Because it chilled me to the bones when I first, because this guy gets it.
And the people over there get it because they live in a slaughterhouse.
You have memories of your parents, your grandparents, your great grandparents, the 1930s, Joe DiMaggio and Gone with the Wind, you know, swing music, Frank Sinatra, all the great icons of American culture.
Yes, we had the Great Depression.
We had the Dust Bowl. Don't get me wrong.
There were bad things happening, particularly in the early 1930s.
But that's not the memories that people have of American culture in the 1930s.
You know what their memories are the 1930s?
A slaughterhouse. Unprecedented in world history.
That's the memories they have.
Ben, read that to me again.

Now, on the one hand, there is a common position of the collective West, and on the other, almost unison, the unity of the Russian people after the declared dispatch of German tanks.
steve bannon ▲ ● ▼
Remember, those German tanks, we showed you the footage the other day, they got iron crosses on the side of them.
Remember, the NATO is not even paying for this.
The German people put up very little money in this.
The elites are driving this.
And the common man and woman, the little guy, the Ukrainian Laobaijing, old hundred names, just like old hundred names.
Do you think, how many elite kids, sons and daughters of the billionaires, Are with the 101st Airborne right now in Romania on the Ukrainian border already on the trigger to go in there?
How many? How many Ken Griffins?
Hell yes, zero.
Forget it. It's a joke. It's this audience's sons and daughters are on that border, just like they served in Iraq, just like they served in Afghanistan, just like they were in Kuwait, saving the Saudi royal family for their oil.
They're now selling to the Chinese Communist Party.
It's a scam. It's a con.
And it can't allow to be going on.
Matt Gaetz, we had Andy Biggs on here yesterday.
He's one of the co-signers just to force the Biden administration to come to Congress.
All you constitutional conservatives, don't be waving the Constitution in my face anymore.
Until you force Biden to come to the House of Representatives and make a presentation on the War Powers Act of exactly what we are doing.
What's the strategy?
What's the objective? What's the cost?
And when are you going to send and commit American combat troops?
