“People have been arrested, prosecuted and sent to jail for years for praying outside abortion clinics. [Yet] there were very few prosecutions of actual violence against pregnancy crisis centers," says Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon. 🔴 PREMIERE 9PM ET on @EpochTV: https://ept.ms/S0506HarmeetDhillon

I asked Steve Bannon if he had one piece of advice for the Trump administration: His response: "Triple down. Make every day more intense than the day before. You're on the right track. You've got the right policies. You've got the right people. …I can tell you, having a front row seat to this, '16 was providential. That was the hand of God. We had a plane. We had a jet, a man, a message. We had no organization, no money. That was the American people stepping up and saying, I want this guy. This guy's different. I've heard enough of the Clintons. I've heard enough of the Bushes. I've heard enough of this crap. I want to give this guy a shot. …The pandemic and the stealing of the 2020 election was also the hand of God. At the time, it didn't seem that [way] but if we had gone right into a second term, it would have been like trench warfare. It would have been like the Western Front in World War One, just two sides dug in, and they kind of had Trump surrounded. …We had the time to regroup. Trump had the time to think…We had the time to think through what we had to do with the Chinese Communist Party. You had those four years of preparation.” …What I would tell the President and his team: urgency, action, intensity. Every day, when you've got an enemy on the run, you keep them on a run. Never take the foot off the pedal." https://rumble.com/v6syjml-steve-bannons-advice-for-the-trump-administration-triple-down.html

"President Trump looks at the United States as a premium market. And just like you would pay to get a skybox at a sporting event or pay a first row ticket for a concert, he's saying there's going to be a premium to get here. …The way you can get out of that is if you bring your manufacturing back to the United States and create high value added manufacturing jobs with massive capital investment. …This has been 50 years of rot, 50 years of selling out your country, 50 years of selling out your countrymen and selling out the workers and the middle class of this nation. The guy's 100 days into it. He's only 28 days from Liberation Day. It's going to take a while. [But] it's not going to take 10 years." 🔴 WATCH FULL: https://ept.ms/S0503SteveBannon

“[Trump] is reorganizing the world system of commerce and of trade,” says Steve Bannon. “For the last 40 or 50 years, the elites in the West, both in the City of London…and our Wall Street, along with the global corporatists, have essentially worked with the Chinese Communist Party as a partner to shift all high value added manufacturing from England and the United States to mainland China. …You've had a systematic de-industrialization of the West for the last 30 or 40 or 50 years…at the detriment of working-class and middle-class people. And that's [why] President Trump is trying to reorganize global commerce and trading systems around it. …The biggest appetite for this to happen is in Japan and South Korea and Taiwan, in Vietnam, in the Philippines, in India. Those are the countries right now, I can tell you, that are stacked up over at the Treasury Department, trying to finish the architecture, memoranda of understanding of the deals that will be this new trading relationship." https://rumble.com/v6sx5h7-steve-bannon-trump-is-reorganizing-the-world-system-of-commerce-and-of-trad.html

🚨Steve Bannon says a constitutional crisis is coming: “The next 100 days is going to be three times more intense, dramatic, and meaningful than the first 100 days,” he says. Here’s why: "In the second 100 days…we're now getting into the zone I call the convergence of the crises. …President Trump, in his Article Two powers, he's saying, hey, look, let me be blunt. On the unitary theory of the executive, I'm the chief executive officer of the United States by the Constitution. That means I can fire people at these agencies or at my cabinet as I want. …Number two…if he deems [federal programs/funding are] not hitting their targets or they should be re-appropriated, he can impound the money. …His second power is as Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces. He's declared a national emergency at the border, a national security emergency. He can deport these people. …And he's already at the Supreme Court on this, and this is going to force, I think, the Supreme Court sometime in June, to rule on it. …These things are hurtling towards I think a climax this summer.” https://rumble.com/v6swtf5-steve-bannon-warns-a-constitutional-crisis-is-coming.html

“Never before in history have two great trading entities ever engaged in outright economic warfare, like is being engaged today…We're living in historic times,” says Steve Bannon.

Could President Donald Trump suspend habeas corpus as a way to bypass judges blocking deportations? Well, a debate is now growing over this after Trump was indirectly asked the question during a cabinet meeting earlier this week. And this ties into one of the key issues we’re now seeing with the Trump administration's programs for deportations. Watch more:https://ept.ms/HabeasCorpusCR

“The concept of ‘terrorizing your enemy’ is what I see from these small drones. You're in a trench, or you're hiding in your bunker, or whatever it is, and you hear that 'zzzzz' sound coming up. And you don't know if it's coming right for you, if it's watching you, if it's been watching you, tracking you, and then you see it. And if it's on you, you try to run away, try to shoot at it... And the next thing you know, you have a small type of explosive just detonated on you. And the sheer chaos and fear it creates has got to be terrifying. I didn't have that issue when I was fighting the war. It would have been a pretty significant change in our battle concepts and our tactical concepts to fight this type of warfare.

"The Chinese have been developing the majority of the world's small drones. I believe that the majority of [drones from] Russians…come from China. They're cheap. They're effective. They do their job. They don't have a ton of technology on them, but they do enough to really make a difference on the battlefield. I know that Ukrainians are also using their own specific drones, and they're creating as much chaos on the other side. So, it really has changed the landscape of warfare. And now the question is, what is the counter solution for that?" - Retired Army Captain Florent Groberg https://rumble.com/v6stq1l-retired-army-captain-and-medal-of-honor-recipient-on-drone-warfare-in-ukrai.html

"One of my friend's daughters was fired from a business- she was about 16 years old, because she wouldn't take the COVID shot. Now, how did we get to that place where an employer thinks it's their right to dictate what you do in order to retain your job or earn a living? That's crazy. My own father was escorted out of the grocery store for not wearing a mask when he was 82-years-old, despite the fact that he has a heart condition and he shouldn't be wearing a mask and impairing his flow of oxygen. And some big guy in the store said, 'We don't care about your exemption.' This is why we have to have the Idaho Medical Freedom Act." -Leslie Manookian 🔴 WATCH FULL: https://ept.ms/S0429LeslieManookian

"There's all these things that are considered impossible until somebody does it, and then the floodgates open. And I think that's what's going to happen.” Leslie Manookian played a pivotal role in getting Idaho to pass the first bill in the U.S. that bans most medical mandates. “I have so many people who want to help us to take this nationwide.

🚨 China analyst Heng He warns there are two scenarios where the Chinese Communist Party would actually invade Taiwan: 1️⃣ When the CCP believes it’s fully ready — militarily and economically — to win not just against Taiwan, but against the U.S., Japan, Australia, and other allies. (Recent military purges suggest the opposite.) 2️⃣ If the CCP senses its grip on power is in danger —for instance, if economic troubles create unmanageable domestic unrest — the CCP could launch a war to try to prove its legitimacy, distract the public, and galvanize hypernationalism. Xi Jinping, in particular, is desperate to secure his legacy—and he likely feels he's running out of time. Recent unprecedented shake ups in top CCP leadership suggest Xi may not be as powerful as he was before. 🔴 WATCH FULL: https://ept.ms/S0426HengHe

A recently leaked directive details the Chinese Communist Party’s strategy to respond to Trump’s tariffs, which have dealt a major blow to China’s already ailing economy. “In Chinese, they call it ‘wei ji.’ ‘Wei ji’ is ‘crisis’ and ‘opportunity.’ So any crisis will be considered an opportunity,” says China analyst Heng He. The directive calls for a “decisive struggle” to crush America’s post-WWII dominance in economics, military power, and global politics. The United Front Work Department and Ministry of Foreign Affairs will work together and target European countries like Germany, France, and England as well as Canada and countries in Asia to form a united front against the United States in the US-China trade war. It also directs all levels of government to plan for rationing systems and prepare for the worst, describing it as a “secret weapon” to winning the trade war. Meanwhile, Party officials and their families are being told to prepare to move overseas funds back to China—or to approved countries—if a total decoupling becomes necessary. Non-compliance will be treated as treason. The CCP is getting desperate. https://rumble.com/v6sm4k9-leaked-directive-reveals-the-ccps-desperate-strategy-to-survive-the-trade-w.html

Two top-level CCP officials recently swapped positions, in an unprecedented move in CCP history. There have also been purges in the military and two high-ranking Xi Jinping loyalists have been removed. These moves are bizarre, and suggest a power struggle at the top, says China analyst Heng He.

"This was a world-altering event. … Our culture, our society, favored older people and other groups to the detriment of children. And there was no benefit [to school closures]. …They were sacrificed for nothing…There was no benefit for elderly people. There are a number of studies that have come out. It's irrefutable at this point. …We, in America, had a scientific culture during the pandemic that favored theory over evidence. It's quite an extraordinary moment. …We actually had empirical evidence from millions of children who went back to school in Europe, and then later millions of kids in [certain locales in] America who were in school. And yet, there was an insistence, month after month after month, on and on for more than a year that we were supposed to ignore the actual things that we could see with our own eyes."

"How do we track what happened to that kid who could have gotten into college and instead is doing something else now? We don't know exactly the kids who were lost, who just stopped going to school entirely." "There are a number of students [for whom sports] was their ticket out of a really bad situation, and their senior year football season was terminated."
