A defiant Steve Bannon declared the Trump presidency he had campaigned for was over as he vowed to carry on the fight after being ousted as the White House chief strategist.
Within hours of leaving his office, Mr Bannon was back at Breitbart, the right wing website he ran, presiding over the evening news conference.
In interviews he made it clear he was not going quietly as he rounded on those he held responsible for his departure.
“The Trump presidency that we fought for, and won, is over," he told the Weekly Standard, a right-wing newspaper “We still have a huge movement, and we will make something of this Trump presidency," he continued.
" But that presidency is over. It’ll be something else. And there’ll be all kinds of fights, and there’ll be good days and bad days, but that presidency is over.”
He added: “I feel jacked up. Now I’ve got my hands back on my weapons,” he added as he vowed “Bannon the barbarian” would crush the opposition.
"There’s no doubt. I built a -----ng machine at Breitbart. And now I’m about to go back, knowing what I know, and we’re about to rev that machine up. And rev it up we will do.”
His loyalty to Donald Trump remained undimmed.
“If there’s any confusion out there, let me clear it up: I’m leaving the White House and going to war for Trump against his opponents -- on Capitol Hill, in the media, and in corporate America,” he told Bloomberg.
Earlier Sarah Huckabee Sanders, White House press secretary said Mr Bannon, 63, had departed “by mutual agreement.”

Joel Pollack, Breitbart's editor at large, tweeted a one-word response to Mr Bannon’s departure: “War”.

That morning i woke up in my hotel room in Maine and turned on the laptop ruined the rest of my trip.
We need Andrew now more than ever.
RIP
Take heart—Bannon is now is a much more powerful place, media-wise, and he will conduct scorched earth on the media, the feckless GOP and the Dems.
He loves Trump and he loves America.
This past week was tough, but I know that Antifa/BLM will overreach(check out Boston later today), and it seems that normal Americans are waking up to an attempted takeover of their country by Leftists who hate America.
Not gonna happen.
Now, enjoy the rest of your trip.
We’ll hold your place i n the line until you get back.
Thanks for the good responses here...
....when Bannon says ‘it’s over’ he surely means the hope of working with the present Congress to achieve President’s Trumps campaign promises is over.....
..so on to Plan B
....those GOPe clucks think only of themselves, not their constituency, the folks who elected them
However, yes indeed the MSM will take those few words and run with it....
....they already are
But then again, knowing how smart Trump and Bannon are.....
....maybe he said it on purpose...just to see the presstitutes wallow in it ....
Expose themselves a little more....
Then.....BAM!
I live near Boston, the train station is a 10 minute walk.
Maybe i’ll head in today.
Nothing insane happened at the Supreme Court because of his death. And Gorsuch is much like him.
Bannon is a brawler and made the pantywaists and pearl clutchers like Jared and Ivanka piss themselves...
he’s in a better position to fight in his own style and on his own terms now...unplugged, unfiltered, unpleasantly forthright...
Who or what are SK and NK?
“not too far fetched” R U kidding me? Weasel words. HE WAS MURDERED! (for political reasons) Seth Rich was MURDERED (for political reasons).
There can be NO DOUBT.
All right. Nevermind. South Korea and North Korea. After reading the article fully, it made sense.
And that's the point.
The balance would have changed if Barack Obama (or a President Hillary) had been able to replace him, wouldn't it?
——I wouldn’t get too comfortable if I were a Democrat-—
The coming cleansing of the left wing by massive indictments needs a strong voice outside the White House. A streaming Breitbart news channel for instance can get the word out over the clamor of the dying fake news presstitutes..
It’s going to get ugly, nasty. The cities and perhaps Virginia are going to burn.
If you live in the Blue Zone, you better leave, They will be coming for you
It is our job to primary and Bannons to primary the RINOS in 2018..
That will scare the hell out of the rest of the RINOS
Trumps job is to get his cabinet to do everything to get the economy rolling for 2018
We new the the GOP was a waste...
The democrats are self destructing
There doing what they did to get Hillary elected
riots and protests
You must have a lot of faith in Jeff Sessions. I remain very underwhelmed and worry that Mueller is still the slow knife aimed at Trump’s heart.
Think Normandy, D Day
It took 2 1/2 of meticulous planning and organization before the beaches were assaulted.
The leftist corruption is very wide and extremely deep. The number of persons to be charged is very large. The number of charges for each is quite long, long enough to require humongous spread sheets. The spread sheet for Hillary alone is incomprehensibly large for a legal charge sheet.
The planning and investigation is secret.
You must not wound the Queen. You must kill the Queen
Well, I didn’t have to wait long for Trump’s strategy to be revealed.
Trump wants (and Bannon wants) him to be exactly where he is going, Breitbart News.
Bannon can do more to help the president in that capacity while still advising him without the blow back.
This is actually GREAT news.
MORE WINNING! I’m not sick of winning yet.
Trump is a genius mastermind, don’t forget it. He KNOWS what he is doing.
“Hey, look at this shiny thing (tweet) over here, while I act over there.” A misdirection master, he fools EVERYONE!
Was Trump “really” unhappy with Sessions? Hmmmm, misdirection?
Is Trump “really” getting rid of Bannon? Hmmmm, misdirection?
Why does Trump keep this guy or that guy? Hmmmm, just doling out enough rope to hang them with? More misdirection?
I am going to trust Trump 100% until I don’t. Then I will trust him 0%. I’m an “all or nothing” kind of guy.
I am not bending to the winds of rumor and FAKE news. I TRUST my president. He doesn’t have to tell me his secret strategies. I TRUST that he knows what he is doing and I KNOW it’s for the good of our country.
Donald J Trump *Patriot*
A person who vigorously supports their country and is prepared to defend it against enemies or detractors.
A nationalist, A loyalist.
With words of wisdom like that makes one wonder how you've survived around here for half a dozen years.
He said Trump went there to take the country back from globalist and won, now will move on to other fights.
Granted I do not see a win yet but I do not know what is going on behind the scenes. I am noticing that certain people have become a lot quieter in the last several days and the Russian narrative is dead. The fact that an FBI agent is off the Mueller team and sitting in a demoted job tells me the FBI needs him for something not to mention there was a story that that probe would end quickly now.
Why? The RATs like killing people. "The ends justifies the means".
For what reason?
So that the commie/jihad/faggot could make another bufoon Supreme Court nomination...and he did.
That’s MY point....we had the Senate and ignored Obama’s pick which was made right after Scalia’s death.
