Show to reach millions across the United States until the acquittal of President Donald J. Trump
November 14, 2019, Washington, D.C. – War Room: Impeachment, a new daily radio show, and podcast, will begin airing nightly on Salem Radio Network from Monday, November 18 at 9 pm in each local media market.
Hosted by former White House Chief Strategist Stephen K. Bannon – alongside Trump 2016 communications adviser Jason Miller and Raheem Kassam, former chief adviser to Brexit leader Nigel Farage – the program offers expert analysis on the historic impeachment hearings of President Donald J. Trump, broadcasting until the day after his acquittal.
Bannon commented: “We are honored to join Salem, the largest conservative and populist radio network in the country, which will help us deliver information and analysis on the impeachment of President Trump to hard-working Americans as they get on with their busy lives. The citizens of this country will be the real jury in this case and it is vital they get the facts.”
The show is being produced in co-operation with veteran broadcaster John Fredericks and will continue to air on the John Fredericks network throughout Virginia and in parts of Florida at 9-10am live, seven days a week.
“The John Fredericks Radio Network is excited to offer national syndication for Stephen K. Bannon’s War Room: Impeachment live radio show and podcast from the nation’s capital. While War Room is now top of mind for all the key influencers in D.C., our goal is to also make the show available for all America so they are informed and engaged on impeachment. We are reaching the grassroots to break through Nancy Pelosi’s beltway fake news firewall,” Fredericks commented.
Many star guests have already appeared on the show, including Congressman Mark Meadows, Senator Mike Braun, Nigel Farage MEP, Congressman Matt Gaetz, David Bossie, Scott Rasmussen, and David Rivkin.
Leading business magazine Fast Company recently said of War Room: Impeachment: “If you want to know tomorrow’s talking points today, this is the place to be. It’s the closest thing to hanging out with Trump himself in your bathrobe… the hosts bring a sharp understanding of impeachment packaged in a rollicking radio format.”
In addition to live broadcasts available on Salem, the John Fredericks network, and at www.warroom.org, War Room: Impeachment is also available as a podcast on iTunes, Google Play, Spotify, Stitcher, and Soundcloud.

Stephen K. Bannon, former chief strategist for President Trump and CEO/Chairman of the Trump for President campaign in 2016 has launched a seven-day a week live radio program on the John Fredericks Radio Network.
Richmond, VA — By John Fredericks
Recognizing House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s master messaging on President Trump’s pending impeachment and frustrated by the lack of a coordinated response by Republicans, Steve Bannon took matters into his own hands.
He started his own impeachment war room — in the form of a live radio show in the basement of his Capitol Hill townhouse. It gives rapid response new meaning.
Bannon’s new show: War Room: Impeachment airs live on JFRS’ affiliates 9:00 AM-10:00 AM and is broadcast from Washington, D.C.
It’s also streamed live on WJFNradio.com, the John Fredericks Radio APP and WarRoom.org.
War Room: Impeachment is already up to episode 16, and can be heard on our JFRS YouTube Channel as well as other podcast platforms and WarRoom.org.
Run from our new studio installed in Steve Bannon’s basement on Capitol Hill, it’s a real live war room, set up just like it would be in the Trump White House or like the 2016 campaign in New York.
War Room: Impeachment takes the day’s impeachment events, breaks them down with keen, insightful analysis and develops daily strategic communication and messaging plan.
Most important, Bannon and his team provide D.C. GOP influencers and Trump supporters with an every-day blueprint for action.
Joining Steve Bannon each day are Jason Miller, former Trump for President strategic communication advisor and Raheem Kassam, who ran the war room for the UK Independent Party and Brexit for Nigel Farage.
Other guests have included U.S. Reps. Mark Meadows, Matt Gaetz, former Trump Administration Chief of Staff Reince Priebus, former deputy Trump 2016 campaign manager Dave Bossie, and many others.
“The Nullification Project has worked extraordinarily well for Pelosi and the Democrats,” Bannon said. “Pelosi has taught a master’s class in political misinformation. It’s been brilliantly executed. She is the best there is at this.”
The White House decided against launching an impeachment war room internally.
So Bannon went external.
“The Democrats were taking free shots on goal on a daily basis, with no resistance at the beginning from Republicans or the White House,” Bannon added.
“Now they are fighting back, and our War Room: Impeachment show is a daily blueprint for action, including daily messaging that runs exactly like a real political war room like we had during the campaign, or like the White House employed for tax cuts and Bret Kavanaugh,” Bannon explained.
Now Bannon and his War Room: Impeachment team and guests are driving the GOP response narrative, and explaining what his happening to our listeners in frank and candid terms.
Jonathan Easley of The Hill newspaper had a great story on the show’s objectives.
Don’t miss a day of War Room: Impeachment.

Virginia Dems Poised For Total Takeover of General Assembly
Reminiscent of the cult movie classic “Night of the Living Dead” – the Virginia radical Democrats are banging at the door of common sense.
There may not be enough boards and nails to stop them.
The crazies are at the gate.
It’s Caucus of the Corn – led by House Minority Leader Eileen Filler-Corn coming out of the high stalks at the stroke of midnight.
Plagued by money woes, the Virginia GOP is on the verge of generational political Armageddon.
It’s the equivalent of a Republican political nuclear winter and Virginia is about to become the south’s new California.
The state Democrats’ message has been succinct and salient: “Trump sucks. Guns.”
That’s it.
To counter, the Republican message has been garbled and non-existent, driven by local issues only.
State Senate Gone
The state senate is already gone. Holding a 21-19 edge, the best the GOP can do now is to hold their loss to two seats. If the Democrats win control of the state senate 21-19 consider is a resounding GOP victory. The night could end 23-17, which would spell catastrophe for the Virginia Republican senate caucus.
GOP House Hangs by a Thread
There is a GOP pathway to holding the House of Delegates, albeit a narrow one. It centers on Republicans holding three key seats: Paul Milde in Fredericksburg (Milde defeated Bob Thomas in a primary) Tim Hugo, the last Republican standing in Northern Virginia and Chris Stolle in Virginia Beach. If they hold those three, they have a fighting chance. If not: enter Caucus of the Corn, stage left.
We’ll have complete district by district predictions at 6:00 AM tomorrow.

Truncated from The Washington Post article: “Once a pariah among Virginia Democrats, Joe Morrissey is now the belle of the ball”
Democrats feel achingly close to a majority in the Senate, where Republicans are defending a 20-to-19 edge, with one vacancy.
If Democrats manage to draw even or take a one-seat advantage, then the formerly shunned and famously mercurial Morrissey becomes crucial to a Democratic hold on the majority.
“Most powerful man in Virginia,” is how conservative radio host John Fredericks put it. A Trump supporter and self-proclaimed “Godzilla of the Truth,” Fredericks said his friend Morrissey will not be afraid to go his own way in the Senate. “He’s an independent thinker, not beholden to any party,” he said.
“Joe is going to be a Democratic senator,” McAuliffe said in an interview, explaining why he agreed to attend. “I already sat with Joe a couple of weeks ago — he agrees with me 100 percent.”
With the possibility of getting majorities in both the House and Senate in fall elections, Democrats can take major actions, he said. “We’ve got to raise the minimum wage, got to get common-sense gun restrictions here in the state of Virginia, and every vote is important.”
One area of possible friction: abortion restrictions. “I didn’t bring that up. I don’t think he agrees with me on that,” said McAuliffe, who touted his work on behalf of women’s health issues.
McAuliffe threatened to pull out of the fundraiser after Fredericks, the radio host and emcee of the event, announced that he was inviting antiabortion activist Victoria Cobb.

Truncated article from McAuliffe and Saslaw, at Richmond home of Joe Morrissey, say Democrats need him on their team
In the possibility of a 20-20 tie, Democrats could still get their agenda through the chamber next year because the Democratic lieutenant governor, Justin Fairfax, would break most tie votes. But if Morrissey, who calls out Democrats with whom he disagrees, were to defect, he could stop the Democratic agenda on any issue he chose.
“Joe is a hard worker and the people in the Senate district, they’re definitely going to get their money’s worth,” Saslaw said. “We are looking forward to having him in our caucus. Joe is extremely bright.”
The fundraiser was emceed by radio host John Fredericks, who was the 2016 chairman of the Trump presidential campaign in Virginia but is a Morrissey ally and McAuliffe booster. Morrissey’s “Fighting Joe Morrissey Show” airs in the Richmond area on WJFN (100.5 FM), which also broadcasts Fredericks’ show.
The relationship between Democratic leaders and Morrissey is one of necessity, Fredericks said in an interview.
“If it’s 20-20, the next day Joe Morrissey becomes the most powerful man in Virginia,” Fredericks said.
At the fundraiser, Fredericks told the group that Republicans have “zero chance” of holding control of the Senate on Nov. 5 and said Morrissey has the ability to bring both parties together.
Several Richmond City Council candidates showed up Wednesday, along with a contingent of lobbyists who regularly attend such events for state lawmakers.
Morrissey also has a residence in the 16th Senate District, where he slept during the primary campaign after tucking in his children at the family home outside the district. The district covers parts of Chesterfield, Prince George and Dinwiddie counties; parts of Richmond and Petersburg; and all of Hopewell.
Dance outspent Morrissey in the primary, and he later said he won via personal contacts with voters and signed letters to many of them.

We call him “Governor McGenius” for a reason. Terry McAuliffe had an impressive record of success as Virginia’s chief executive. He brought in $7 billion of new business — and was scandal-free. Can he translate that success to a successful run for President?
Former Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe to Appear on the John Fredericks Radio Show April 1 to Discuss his Presidential Prospects, State and National Politics, and the WJFN News Talk 100.5 FM Highway Billboard Featuring McAuliffe’s saying: “Miss Me Yet?”
Governor McAuliffe Schedule to be a Guest on the John Fredericks Radio Show at 8 a.m. Monday, April 1; Listen Live at WJFN 100.5 FM or Online at www.WJFNRadio.com or install the free John Fredericks Show APP.
RICHMOND, VA–The #GodzillaOfTruth and WJFN News Talk Radio 100.5 FM is starting April with a jolt of energy – former Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe, arguably the most energetic man in politics, is scheduled to help kick off the month with an 8:05 a.m. April 1 (April Fool’s Day) appearance on the John Fredericks Radio Show.
McAuliffe is the business deal-making 72nd Governor of Virginia known for his boisterous energy and volubility. He previously served as Chairman of the Democratic National Committee, as Co-Chairman of former President Bill Clinton’s 1996 re-election campaign, and as Chairman of Hillary Clinton’s 2008 presidential campaign. At the moment, McAuliffe is considering a run for the presidency in 2020.
Locally, he’s the face of a digital billboard visible along Interstate 95 in Richmond promoting WJFN 100.5 FM. The billboard features a picture of McAuliffe in the Governor’s Mansion holding a frosty pint of beer (see image below). Its tagline – “Miss Me Yet?” – is a winking reference to people who might be surprised to find themselves yearning for the days of McAuliffe’s governorship in light of the controversies that consumed the State Capitol this winter.
“Governor McAuliffe has been a repeat guest on our program over the years and we’re excited to have him join us on April 1 to help jumpstart the month and our Monday morning,” said John Fredericks, an accomplished media executive who is the host and founder of the John Fredericks Radio Show, and a lead proprietor of WJFN 100.5 FM.
“Join us on April Fool’s Day for what’s sure to be a rollicking conversation about the state of Democratic Party in Washington, and what the future holds for the Governor. Will he run for President? Can he be the nominee? Does he have a path? What about Bernie and AOC? Has his time passed, or…are Democrats ready for Terry?” Find out Monday, we’ll be live from Miami, Florida.”
WJFN broadcasts Fredericks’ highly popular and influential program and serves as the flagship station for the expanding John Fredericks Radio Network. Fredericks’ eponymous show is simulcast from Washington, D.C. and can be heard on weekdays from 6 a.m.-10 a.m. EST. His show is broadcast in media markets across Virginia including Richmond, Hampton Roads, Lynchburg, and Roanoke. The John Fredericks Radio Show is also heard on stations in Jacksonville, FL.
In addition to his radio show, Fredericks is also a regular guest on national and international television news programs. He served with his wife, Anne, as a national delegate to the 2016 Republican National Convention, and was the Virginia Chairman of the Donald J. Trump for President Campaign that year.

Morrissey is a progressive Democrat who ran for Richmond Mayor in 2016, and who once brought a semi-automatic rifle onto the House of Delegates’ floor to make a point during a policy debate.

His non-partisan show is a lively mix of politics, business, and policy talk, along with his musings on sports, barbeque, and family-friendly cable television movies for good measure.

RICHMOND, VA – As political controversies affecting Virginia Democrats at the highest levels of elected state office erupt one after another, two WJFN 100.5 FM hosts who each sought statewide office as Democrats in 2017 will join forces this Saturday (February 9) for a two-hour broadcast to provide insight on the latest developments in the Commonwealth’s unfolding imbroglio.
Democrat Susan Platt, who hosts the “Find Your Roar” hourly interview program each Saturday from 9-10 a.m., and Democrat Gene Rossi, host of the “Gene Rossi Show” on Saturdays from noon-1 p.m., are teaming up for a special two-hour broadcast (11 a.m.-1 p.m.) this weekend to delve into the scandals that have entangled Governor Ralph Northam, Lieutenant Governor Justin Fairfax, and Attorney General Mark Herring.

These are serious and sensitive subjects involving prominent public officials. Many Virginians are reeling from these revelations. In such highly charged moments, we recognize our responsibility to accurately inform our listeners as they put these events into context. From the outset, WJFN 100.5 FM has been dedicated to the idea of having diverse on-air voices to help make sense of the world around us.

The Virginia Consumer Healthcare Alliance has released a new video that highlights some of the harmful practices of big health insurance companies that impact Virginia patients, families, and employers. The video examines issues like surprise medical bills, rapidly rising insurance premiums and out-of-pocket costs, and claim denials that hurt Virginians. Please share this video with your friends, family, and co-workers and encourage them to join our consumer-focused effort to make health insurance more affordable through common sense reforms that stop the harmful excess of big insurance companies like Anthem.
