Steve Bannon sounded the alarm on Monday morning’s WarRoom, about what he calls "Senate sabotage” — a deliberate, behind-the-scenes effort to block President Trump’s America First agenda using obscure procedural tools and controlled opposition. At the center of this scheme is the Senate Parliamentarian, an unelected staffer appointed during the tenure of former Democratic Majority Leader Harry Reid. Bannon emphasized that this single figure, still in power under Republican leadership, is pivotal in deciding what policy provisions can survive the budget reconciliation process.

"This should tell you everything you need to know about what a fixed deal the GOP is,” Bannon said, pointing to the fact that even under Mitch McConnell and now John Thune, the Parliamentarian has not been replaced.

Quick Clip:

BANNON: The Senate parliamentarian is bad news.

Republicans love to blame her for why real reforms get stripped out. But let’s be honest, they’re also hiding behind her to dodge accountability.

The result? Core MAGA priorities — like defunding Planned Parenthood, removing illegal immigrants from Medicaid, and blocking corporate AI surveillance protections — are ruled "out of bounds,” while lobbyist-backed carveouts for Big Tech easily slip through.

Bannon argues that the Parliamentarian is used as a convenient scapegoat by GOP leadership to dodge accountability while still serving the interests of corporate donors and globalist policies. "The games are being played,” he warned, "and they’re going to shock you.”

For Bannon, this reflects a broader betrayal: the Republican establishment remains "controlled opposition,” giving lip service to Trump’s movement while quietly undermining its implementation. Until the Senate’s procedural manipulation is confronted and dismantled, even Trump’s electoral victories won’t be enough to shift the system.

The takeaway is stark: without structural reform and grassroots vigilance, the permanent D.C. class — including Republicans — will continue to neutralize the populist revolt, one backroom ruling at a time.

Steve Bannon warns that entrenched forces in Washington—including establishment Republicans, Senate procedural traps, and corporate lobbyists—are undermining President Trump’s agenda, especially around immigration enforcement, budget priorities, and surveillance legislation. To protect and advance the MAGA-aligned law enforcement and deportation strategy, citizens must apply political pressure, demand legislative transparency, and hold lawmakers accountable.

Bottom line to spread:

Senate Sabotage: Bannon calls out the Senate Parliamentarian, appointed under Harry Reid, as a gatekeeper used to block Trump-aligned reforms (e.g., defunding Planned Parenthood or removing illegal immigrants from Medicaid).

Controlled Opposition: He criticizes GOP leaders like Mitch McConnell and compliant media outlets (e.g., Fox News) for enabling “game-playing” that dilutes MAGA policy.

AI Surveillance Concerns: Bannon highlights companies like Palantir and Meta seeking long-term protections via a 10-year AI moratorium buried in the budget bill—posing a risk to civil liberties.

Trump’s Police Agenda at Risk: The President needs funding for mass deportations and ICE restoration, but Bannon says budget tricks may sabotage those efforts under the guise of compromise.

What You Can Do:

Contact Your Representatives: Demand they vote against any budget bill that includes carveouts for Big Tech or blocks immigration enforcement funding.

Support Transparent Media: Follow independent outlets reporting on legislative maneuvers, especially during "vote-a-rama” sessions.

Stay Engaged: Watch for updates on how budget riders and reconciliation tactics are used to sneak in harmful provisions.

Push for Senate Reform: Advocate for replacing partisan appointees like the Parliamentarian and restoring constitutional oversight over unelected staff roles.
