‘Steve Bannon Is Naming Names’: MSNBC Anchor Alarmed by ‘Chilling’ List of People Ex-Trump Adviser Wants Prosecuted in a Second Term
Mediaite ^

Posted on 06/18/2024 7:20:12 AM PDT by Tench_Coxe

Former Donald Trump adviser Steven Bannon has pledged that a second Trump term will bring “accountability” to those involved in the ex-president’s prosecutions.

Speaking at a Turning Point USA event in Detroit on Saturday, Bannon singled out Attorney General Merrick Garland, Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco, and Special Counsel Jack Smith.

Trump, who was convicted in New York last month of falsifying business records, is under federal indictment in two jurisdictions, where he faces charges of trying to overturn the 2020 election and retaining classified documents after leaving office. The former president has also been indicted in Georgia for trying to overturn the election results in the state. He has pleaded not guilty to all counts.

But a government that detains people without trial for 4 years, or throws old ladies into prison for peacefully protesting, or selectively prosecutes the same crime committed by distinct individuals based on political leanings, or willfully violates its own laws is not chilling.

Right, MSNBC?

What Bannon is saying is fine, but he needs to make clear the specific details why he intends to prosecute every one of those people he is naming.

Well, the NY case shows that you don’t need a specific crime to convict.

Hold the Democrats to the standard they set for Trump.

Clintoon has begun having nightmares again about Trump getting re-elected and throwing her corrupt gluteus maximas (Bubble Butt) in jail. She was looking so much forward to crashing through glass ceiling at the Jacob K Javits Conference Center with fireworks going off all over New Yawk.

This list may make Bannon feel good but will accomplish nothing — except to tip-off those on the list and inflame them to more illegal and desperate acts to stop Trump. The time for such a list is after Trump gets elected, when he will have the government at his disposal.

NO! We need to have a higher standard than the democrats.

Convictions are not what I was talking about.

Winning the election is. The media is already painting Bannon’s talk as “promising a bloodbath”.

That’s not going to help win any elections.

I wonder where he got that idea.
“Oh no. They are going to do to us what we did to them”.

Exactly. Republicans should be talking about how they will turn the nation around, not proclaiming who they are going to get before they are even able to get anyone.

Agreed. Win the election first, then deal with the family business.

Make no mistake, lists do need to be made. But those on that list need to find out they’re on the list when their doors are broken down at 4AM by justice-minded law enforcement and are frog-marched into an armored van.

Dont agree, we’ve moved beyond that point. Thanks to the democrats/progressives, the country is not going back to what it was anytime soon.

They are turning the nation around by going after those who used the power of the justice department to go after their political enemies.

What has been done by Democrats is illegal, and has to be prosecuted by Trump in order to bring real justice back to America instead of this partisan witch hunt the Democrats are calling justice now.

Without correction, there is no change in their behavior.
