Objective of the WarRoom’s Texas Mission: Expose the political betrayal of MAGA in Texas and rally conservatives to reclaim control.
Steve Bannon told his Saturday WarRoom audience that Texas should be a conservative stronghold. Instead, as he exposed on the program, Democrats are running the show at the state legislature—without actually winning elections with the help of RINO Republicans.
Analysis of Texas Political Landscape and Bannon-Harrison WarRoom Discussion
Overview: The Saturday morning WarRoom conversation between Steve Bannon and Brian Harrison provides a deep dive into the current political turmoil within Texas, shedding light on the state’s battle against radical elements infiltrating its government. Harrison, a multi-generational Texan and former Trump administration official, speaks passionately about the growing threats from within the Republican Party itself. The discussion touches on key issues such as lawfare, the role of the Deep State, and the betrayal of Texas voters by so-called “Republicans” who are enabling Democratic control.
Key Insights:
- Texas as the Battleground: Harrison underscores that Texas, long seen as a conservative stronghold, is now the epicenter of a political battle that could dictate the future of the United States. Texas’ size, economic power, and electoral significance make it a key battleground in the fight against the progressive left. However, Harrison warns that the state is under siege not from external forces but from within, with entrenched political figures from both parties undermining the will of Texas voters.
- The Rise of “Fake Republicans”: A significant portion of the conversation focuses on the role of “fake Republicans” in Texas, particularly within the state legislature. Harrison points out the paradox where, despite Trump’s resounding victory in the state, radical Democrats effectively control the Texas House through a coalition of 30 so-called Republicans and 50 actual Democrats. This, he argues, is an example of a broader failure of leadership and a betrayal of the people who voted for conservative change. The critical issue here is the manipulation of power structures, where Democrats occupy pivotal positions in committees, despite Republicans having the majority.
- The Power of Lobbyists and Special Interests: Harrison also discusses the outsized influence of special interest groups, particularly the media and big businesses, who he claims are colluding with politicians to stifle real change. He draws a parallel between the Texas state government and the swamp in Washington D.C., arguing that, like their counterparts in the capital, the Austin elite are more focused on maintaining their power and feeding into the Deep State’s agenda than delivering on the promises of fiscal conservatism and smaller government.
- Impact of the Administrative State: A central concern raised by Harrison is the unchecked growth of the administrative state, particularly within Texas agencies like the Department of Education and Health and Human Services. These agencies, according to Harrison, are not only growing in size but also pushing an agenda that runs counter to the values of most Texans. Harrison advocates for reforms to dismantle this bloated bureaucracy, particularly focusing on ending property taxes and reducing the power of administrative agencies that he claims are using taxpayer money to fund radical policies.
- The Role of President Trump: Throughout the discussion, Harrison emphasizes the role of President Trump in combating what he sees as the increasing radicalization of Texas politics. He praises Trump for his efforts to push back against the Department of Education and other federal agencies that Harrison argues are weaponized against conservatives. Harrison contrasts Trump’s commitment to combating the rise of the administrative state with the complacency of local Republican officials, pointing out that while Trump has made strides at the federal level, Texas has failed to mirror these efforts on the state level.
Call to Action: The conversation concludes with a call to action for Texans to wake up and reclaim their government from the hands of those who have betrayed them. Harrison stresses the importance of grassroots efforts and a renewed commitment to true conservative-MAGA leadership. He proposes taking bold steps, including eliminating property taxes and dismantling the administrative state, to restore Texas to its rightful place as a beacon of liberty and economic freedom.
Conclusion: Harrison’s reflections on Texas politics and the state’s trajectory provide a sobering analysis of the current political environment. His message is clear: Texas is at a crossroads, and unless bold action is taken to dismantle the growing influence of radical Democrats and their allies within the Republican Party, the state risks losing its status as a conservative stronghold. The conversation highlights the critical need for leadership that is willing to fight for the values that Texas voters have long championed—freedom, liberty, and limited government.
