Episode Details

Steve Bannon opens Saturday's War Room with Parker Sigg as Real America's Voice steps into a major White House television pool assignment. CNN had been scheduled for the rotation covering President Trump's trip to Tennessee, but White House guidance instead listed Real America's Voice among the outlets providing television coverage.

Bannon and Sigg discuss RAV's expanding pool operation, its live presidential feeds, and the infrastructure being used to deliver continuous coverage to the public and other media organizations. Sigg says RAV intends to continue expanding those capabilities as the dispute over White House press access develops.

Then Capt. James Fanell joins Bannon for a wide-ranging assessment of Xi Jinping's visit to the United States and the strategic competition with Beijing. Their discussion covers the recent U.S.-Denmark-Greenland security agreement, China's posture toward Taiwan, the Strait of Hormuz, fentanyl, artificial intelligence, and Beijing's characterization of the outcomes from the Trump-Xi meetings. The Greenland agreement expands the U.S. military role there while leaving Greenland under Danish sovereignty.

Fanell also examines language appearing in Chinese state-media accounts of the summit, including Beijing's push for what it calls a relationship of "strategic stability," and argues that Washington should carefully scrutinize how that terminology is used.
