Steve Bannon: America Is Not An Idea, It’s A Nation With Border And Laws

Steve Bannon discussed the growing influence of his “War Room” audience in shaping American politics, especially as part of the “MAGA Movement” supporting former President Trump. He pointed out that a Vanity Fair article highlighted how his audience has become a kind of army, playing a critical role on Trump’s right flank, and reflected on how traditional values and the economic concerns of the working and middle classes have united these supporters.

Bannon critiqued the progressive left, claiming that they now defend what he calls “institutional rot” within American systems, which he believes contradicts the foundational principles of the nation’s founders. He emphasized structural and systemic problems in the U.S. — asserting that it’s not just individual leaders like Merrick Garland or James Comey, but the very architecture of institutions like the FBI, DOJ, military, and intelligence community that need reform.

Drawing on Tucker Carlson’s recent comments on the “spiritual” and “demonic” aspects of these conflicts, Bannon argued that post-World War II policies and neoliberalism have led to the rise of an “empire” that has alienated everyday Americans. He sees this era’s military, economic, and intelligence policies as diverging from the original American vision, instead promoting globalism at the expense of U.S. citizens.

Finally, Bannon described Trump as a kind of “avenging angel,” rallying against a long and difficult struggle to overhaul these entrenched institutions and purging their corrupt elements. He called recent political victories only a “marker” in a much longer journey toward this goal.

Steve Bannon: “We Have Not Saved This Nation Yet”

Steve Bannon addresses the WarRoom Posee, acknowledging their pivotal role in supporting Donald Trump and the America First movement. He asserts that Trump’s resurgence isn’t improbable but “completely logical,” despite media outlets like The New York Times framing it as a comeback. Bannon frames Trump’s return as a “warrior” motivated by a commitment to rectify what he perceives as the wrongs of the 2020 election and an institutional betrayal of the American people. According to Bannon, many supporters, especially those disillusioned with established political orders, now view Trump as an “avenging angel” who embodies their desire for change and justice.

Bannon highlights the increasing involvement of diverse communities, such as Hispanics and African Americans, in the movement. He emphasizes that Trump’s supporters are united by a shared feeling of abandonment by the elite establishment, whom he accuses of treating them like "peasants” under a “quasi-feudal” system. This has led to a “great awakening” among ordinary citizens, driven by a belief that the institutional powers have manipulated their influence to silence dissent and weaponize the justice system against Trump.

In closing, Bannon warns of the resistance they will face from an entrenched and sophisticated establishment but stresses resilience. He insists that the movement’s strength lies in its ability to endure and eventually bring about a justice that will hold the establishment accountable for its perceived injustices against the American public.

Steve Bannon And Scott Bessent Discuss The Ticking Time Bomb Of The National Debt

In this conversation, Steve Bannon and Scott Bessent address financial and political issues surrounding Trump’s potential second term. Bannon emphasizes two anticipated strategies against Trump: economic destabilization and a focus on immigration and deportations. Bessent argues that current economic policies have created a precarious financial situation, warning that the "ticking time bomb” of national debt and interest rates will be a significant challenge for Trump’s administration. He attributes the current economic instability to excessive government spending and the Federal Reserve’s actions, which he views as reckless.

Bessent refutes the mainstream narrative that Trump’s policies would increase inflation, arguing instead that Trump’s energy dominance and deregulation plans would reduce inflation and stimulate growth. He highlights Trump’s focus on American economic resilience and believes the financial and regulatory reforms Trump intends to implement will benefit the middle class and counter elite-driven economic control. They both express concern that the current administration’s policies could create barriers to Trump’s goals by potentially "spiking the cannon” through economic disruption, thereby limiting Trump’s policy impact.

Steve Bannon: The Left Has Become The Defender Of Corrupt Institutions, Purges Required

In these remarks, Steve Bannon critiques media figures, Hollywood, and political elites, accusing them of detachment from American citizens’ real issues. He mocks MSNBC’s Alex Wagner and other public figures as out of touch with working-class Americans, whom he believes have been ignored and disenfranchised by the elites they support. Bannon argues that Trump has become a symbol of resistance for many disenfranchised groups, including working-class Black, Hispanic, and immigrant communities, who feel abandoned by the establishment.

Bannon blames elitist institutions for shaping a media narrative that disconnects from grassroots realities, positioning Trump as a warrior standing up for people who feel their jobs, families, and communities have been undermined. He calls out Hollywood for promoting a biased view through popular shows, aiming to glorify federal agencies and elite ideals while vilifying populist movements. For Bannon, America isn’t just an “idea,” as politicians like Kamala Harris claim, but a tangible country with borders, people, and communities—the very essence of which, he argues, elites have corrupted. He urges Americans to recognize the manipulation and unite to protect their financial security and communal values.

Steve Bannon introduced a new book by Dan Fleuette that captures the spirit of the War Room and its "rebels and rogues” through Fleuette’s striking photography and storytelling. Bannon describes the book as a visual journey of the War Room’s influence over the years, highlighting key personalities and moments that have defined the movement. He praises the photography and the memories shared, calling it a perfect Christmas gift. Referencing Joe Rogan’s observation, Bannon notes how Trump has become a “rebel” and “outlaw” in his fight against establishment forces that, he argues, have harmed America’s middle class. The book aims to document the defiance and resilience of this populist movement, offering supporters a vivid look at the War Room’s legacy and Trump’s role as a figure challenging the status quo.

Dave Bossie: The Lefts Entire Take Down Trump Effort Culminated In Tuesday’s Election Results

Dave Bossie and Steve Bannon dissected what they perceive as the left’s reaction to the Trump movement and its populist base. Bannon emphasized that millions of Americans, tired of political elites, have rallied behind Trump to defend American democracy and resist authoritarian influences. He criticized the left, particularly figures like Rachel Maddow, for their lack of self-awareness, accusing them of pushing a divisive narrative that demonizes Trump supporters. Bannon argued that this approach disregards the voice of the “80 million” Americans who rejected the establishment’s attempts to undermine Trump through impeachments, indictments, and other means.

Dave Bossie highlighted the strategic need for resilience among Trump supporters, whom he calls the “War Room Posse,” to counter perceived threats to constitutional pillars like free speech, an independent judiciary, and a balanced government. He stressed that institutions, including the press, the judiciary, and civil society, must resist any moves toward authoritarian control, likening it to how authoritarian regimes historically crush civic organizations to consolidate power. Bannon and Bossie’s comments underscore their call to action for Americans to unite and protect democratic principles, casting the upcoming years as a critical period for preserving the American form of government.
