WarRoom host Steve Bannon often tells his audience to "bifurcate,” and while it may sound technical, it’s a powerful concept. He’s saying: separate truth from spin — don’t let the media or political elites blur everything together. In his daily broadcasts, Bannon urges Americans to see the difference between what they’re told about how the establishment in Washington wants things to be and how the government is supposed to work.

"We’re not trying to destroy democracy,” Bannon said on his annual 4th of July special, "We’re trying to save the Republic.”

What We’re Getting Wrong About American History

Bannon said that he believes the left tries to mix everything into one feel-good narrative:

"The Declaration, the war, the Constitution — they act like it all happened at once, like it’s all about democracy.”

But the truth is more complicated — and more powerful. The founding of America happened over decades. It was a fight against a corrupt British system where rich elites and the Crown ruled over ordinary people without giving them a voice. Sound familiar?

Back then, the British monarchy had corrupted their version of Congress, and today, Bannon says, Wall Street, Big Tech, and political donors have done the same to our system — especially in Congress and the Senate.

We’re a Republic, Not a Democracy
Bannon reminds us: the United States was never meant to be a pure democracy. Our founders looked at the chaos of the French and Bolshevik Revolutions and said, "No thanks.” They created a Constitutional Republic — with rules, structure, and protections against mob rule or centralized power.

Today’s politicians and media constantly chant "democracy,” but Bannon says that’s a cover. Just like the Bolsheviks, they say "democracy” until they get control — then they crush it. That’s why the MAGA movement must reclaim the real meaning of self-government.

What WarRoom Is Really About
Bannon’s WarRoom isn’t just a show — it’s a battlefield headquarters. He sees it as today’s version of the Committees of Correspondence during the American Revolution. Back then, patriots used letters and networks to organize resistance. Now, it’s podcasts, precinct strategy, and citizen action.

The goal?

Wake up, regular Americans, and build local power.

Bannon believes MAGA is a modern revolution made up of working people fighting against a corrupt elite. He sees President Trump’s comeback as proof that a small but determined group of citizens can still change history.

What You’re Supposed to Do
Bannon’s message isn’t just about ideas — it’s about action. Here’s the playbook:

• Understand the real history — America was founded to resist centralized power.
• See the elite for what they are — a new ruling class using media, money, and government to stay in control.
• Use WarRoom as your organizing tool — plug into local politics, join committees, and make your voice heard.
• Push policies that help American workers — from tariffs and tax cuts to securing the border and ending fake visa programs.

The Bigger Picture
Bannon says the MAGA movement didn’t just survive the stolen 2020 election — it became stronger. President Trump, despite being cast aside by media elites and Fox News, is now leading the most significant political comeback in American history.

And now, with the passage of the "big, beautiful bill” in Congress — flawed but full of potential — Bannon sees a chance to reignite American capitalism, cut taxes, and stop the flood of illegal labor hurting American wages.

This isn’t about slogans. It’s about building a movement that wins real power, from Congress to your local school board.
