Steve Bannon (8:20)
Monday the 3rd of February in the year of our Lord 2025 days of thunder continue on. And I think it's very important now to, for the War Room posse because we do have a lot of work to do. We have confirmations. We got to get up on the ramparts on a little bit later. But to unders, I think, understand or begin to understand what's going on. This is obviously the flood the zone strategy to the nth degree, and it's a little bit broken. The Democrats, Chuck Schumer, in fact, I think, I don't know if we have the tape, but he's in semaphore and we're hunting for the tape where he says, we're not going to fall for Bannon's flood the zone strategy. We're going to focus. Well, so far they haven't focused. They've been overwhelmed Right there. We just did the tariffs and I want to get to that in a second since obviously we're very, we're pro the American system from Alexander Hamilton, which is protectionist and tariffs are part of it. President Trump's philosophy is that this is a premium market and you got to get through the golden door. You got to pay a premium price. Now, he used in this effort, he used A what's called the emergency authorization put in back in the time of Nixon, after Nixon, remember we talked about Nixon, the gold standard. Nixon started throwing tariffs around and they wanted a little bit to control him. So they had a set of criteria you had to have for to call an emergency. This is not the 301s and the 302s we used in the first term as they laid out there to get the, to get to basically remember Alcoa and particularly US Steel, to get the steel and aluminum tariffs. This is much more of a national emergency measure now. So President Trump is doing that. I use this term geoeconomic and geostrategic. Take your number two prints a lot and write those down. Geo, economic and geostrategic. And they're inextricably linked. This is combining geopolitics with obviously national security and military strategy, national strategy with economic strategy. Right now we have Pete Hegseth is going to the border to make sure the US army and the Marine Corps are all deployed along the border so we can shut down, seal the border. Tom Homan's reporting that I think 93% drop in folks coming across the border. We're almost sealed. That part of it is Mexico, you know, understanding what's going on here, that President Trump is playing hardball, the hardest ball you can play, which is really to put up a moat or to put a toll to get into this lucrative market of the United States. Because to be brutally frank, Canada and Mexico cannot exist. They will go into a depression immediately if they can't get access to the US Market. Marco Rubio's in Panama was Marco, Marco, Rudy goes to Panama, has, I don't know, a 30 minute meeting. And the Panamanian president says, okay, we're at a one belt, one road, remember, one belt, one road. This is the Chinese networking system of using predatory capitalism like the British East India Company to basically encircle the Eurasian landmass, also to encircle the United States in the Western Hemisphere. President Trump's strategy, his initial strategy, is a hemispheric defense of not just North America, but Central America and Latin america. Monroe Doctrine 2.0, you throw Canada in there and it makes total logic for the Canadians to partner up with us to end their alignment with the British dominions and to partner with us because of the Arctic, the new great game of the 21st century. Also the economics relating to trade with them, particularly specifically the western provinces, oil and gas, which have also the cultural affinity, not a whole lot of difference between the western part of Canada and, I don't know, places like Montana, Wyoming, Idaho, North Dakota, Colorado, Utah, the American west. Actually, let's throw in Oklahoma and Texas in there, too, for good measure. Don't be President Trump is using means and tools to do this. At the same time, he's taken down the administrative and the deep state. He's got Emil Bovey and we don't have confirmations. We're gonna get to that in a second. Emil Bovey, who's number three in the Justice Department, is essentially taking over the FBI. The Justice Department, I don't know. He's also Tom Holman's and Kristi Noem's partner on the raids. He's. He's overseeing the raid in Chicago. He's totally starting to deconstruct the FBI in the DOJ even as we speak. Elon Musk, on the other hand, is out, I don't know, monitoring or it's very uncertain how close he is to having his hands on the checkbook at treasury, but somehow they have some sort of involvement, at least some monitoring, and somebody in the government, I don't know who it is, but somebody at a pretty high level I think is monitoring either okaying the checks. I don't know if the Secretary, treasury or somebody at the White House, but they've gone to both the OMB memo the other day to find out where the cash is and to halt payments that didn't last too long, just to find out in the system where the money is, where the cash is, where it's going. Then you go back to the railhead. Treasury actually cuts the checks. Elon Musk also overnight, has taken out or said to take out with Trump's permission, they may have to get a statutory change here with President Trump's permission. Usaid, which, you know, on this show we've had Mike Benzon for years. That's a cutout for the Central Intelligence Agency and not just international bad actions, right? Spread money all over with hell's half acre to who knows what, but also use her domestically. Flood the zone. You go down any vertical. National security, immigration, ending the wars in the Middle East. Bibi's en route. Zelensky saying he only gets $77 million. Harnwell's gonna be on later. Zelensky's literally saying, I only get of the 250. The 250 billion only gets 77 billion. I don't know where your money is. But geo economically, it's more than just tariffs. This is more than just tariffs. Short commercial break We're Gonna explain it all to you.
