Steve Bannon’s War Room Hosts Senate Republicans as Trump Pushes Capitol Hill Agenda

Steve Bannon’s War Room PM show, once wiped off every major tech platform, now hosts sitting U.S. senators to push President Trump’s Capitol Hill agenda live on television.

Story Snapshot

War Room PM airs live on Real America’s Voice weekdays at 5:00 p.m. EST, with a morning edition at 10:00 a.m.
Recent episodes featured Senator Bernie Moreno (R-OH) discussing Trump’s Ohio factory visit and a Capitol Hill lunch with 53 GOP senators.
Other segments covered Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s push for a federal spending showdown.
The show’s history includes platform bans from YouTube, Twitter, and Facebook in 2020 and 2021, followed by reinstatement on Spotify.

A Populist Platform’s Path Back Into the Mainstream

Steve Bannon’s War Room PM broadcasts live six days a week on Real America’s Voice, describing itself as bringing viewers “the most important news from around the world”. The show runs a morning edition at 10:00 a.m. Eastern and a second airing at 5:00 p.m. on weekdays, giving Bannon two daily windows to shape conservative populist talking points before millions of online viewers.

That reach looks very different from five years ago. Twitter permanently banned an account linked to Bannon in November 2020 after he suggested on a livestream that then-FBI Director Christopher Wray and Dr. Anthony Fauci should face beheading. YouTube followed in January 2021, pulling both his War Room channel and a separate Bannon film project for violating platform rules.

Senate Republicans Now Turn to Bannon’s Broadcast

The comeback is visible in who shows up on air. In one recent War Room PM episode titled “Trump Heads to Capitol for Senate Showdown,” Bannon welcomed Senator Bernie Moreno, describing him as one of the Senate’s strongest Trump supporters and a leading populist nationalist voice. Moreno used the segment to detail Trump’s visit to a Mack Truck factory in Ohio and a planned lunch with 53 Republican senators.

That kind of access marks a shift for a program that spent years locked out of mainstream platforms. Sitting lawmakers appearing on a show once scrubbed from YouTube and Twitter shows how thoroughly conservative media figures have rebuilt influence outside traditional broadcast networks, even as questions about platform moderation and political speech remain unresolved for both parties.

Economic Fights and Culture Battles Fill the Broadcast

Other recent War Room PM episodes leaned into economic and cultural fights driving Washington debates. One segment, titled “Bessent Unleashes Maximum Pressure as Bannon Demands Spending Showdown,” covered Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s pressure campaign tied to federal budget fights. Another episode, “Shapiro Backtracks on Data Centers, Skrmetti Smashes Big Tech,” focused on tech industry regulation and energy infrastructure debates now dominating conservative media coverage.

Bannon’s companion website, warroom.org, promotes similar themes, telling visitors it discusses “polling, economy, battleground states, and more” while urging supporters to “stay ahead of the censors”. His podcast also returned to Spotify this year after a five-year ban tied to the 2020 beheading comments, restoring another major distribution channel. Together, these moves show a media operation once treated as a platform liability now woven into the daily flow of Republican messaging on spending, tech policy, and Trump’s legislative fights.
