Welcome back to James Popperi. I'm Joe Heschmire. And if you think that keeping up with news and politics right now is just overwhelming, well, good news, I guess. You're correct. And you should know that some of that feeling of being overwhelmed that you're experiencing is actually by design. Now, Steve Bannon, one of the masterminds behind President Trump's first campaign, gave a fascinating interview back in 2019,

where he talked about feeling like they were up against both the Democratic Party and the media,

and that one of the strategies for keeping the opposition, both the media and the other party,

on the back foot, was by doing so much stuff all at once that it was hard to organize any kind of opposition to it.

In Bannon's words, he says this.

In the first hundred days, every day we're going to be hitting with either three executive

orders or whatever.

Number one is that the Democratic Party shattered.

They don't know if they're coming or going, right?

They got one group that's doing identity politics, another group that's a Clinton centrist.

I said, we've broken them right now.

They have no idea.

They're going to have their own internal civil war, right?

They'll keep them occupied for a while.

So what we've got to do is just hit, hit, hit, and keep it.

It's momentum, momentum, momentum.

The opposition party is the media. And the media can only, because they're dumb and they're lazy, they can only focus on one thing at a time. And the one thing they'll mainly focus on is either they do the horse race or once the horse race, who's in, who's out? It's like the high school, who are the cool kids in the cafeteria, right? Because it's easy. It's the reason they do

the horse race stuff all the time, right? And they won't do the basic, what are the core things are going on in the country? I said, all we have to do is flood the zone. Every day, we hit them with three things. They'll bite on one and we'll get all of our stuff done. Pang, bang, bang. These guys will never, will never be able to recover.

But we've got to start with muscle velocity.

So it's got to start.

It's got a hammer.

It's got muscle velocity.
