A Twitter account for a podcast run by former White House Chief Strategist Steve Bannon was permanently suspended by the social media company after he suggested beheading Dr. Anthony Fauci and FBI Director Christopher Wray.
Bannon, speaking on his “War Room” podcast, said Trump shouldn’t just fire Wray and Fauci, he should dismember the government officials “as a warning to federal bureaucrats.”
“I’d actually like to go back to the old times of Tudor England,” Bannon said in the bizarre rant.
“I’d put the heads on pikes. I’d put them at the two corners of the White House as a warning to federal bureaucrats, you either get with the program or you’re gone,” he added.
In an email, Twitter said they “permanently” suspended Bannon’s @WarRoomPandemic account after Bannon’s rant.

I just found the War Room and Steve Bannon on election night! He’s gotten me through this week.
I was listening to him live when he was pulled.
I remember the “head on pikes” thing but thought nothing of it. A metaphor.
Twitter and Facebook and Youtube staff are ill educated. They probably never heard that metaphor before.
It’s a shame because his War Room show is great, and YouTube cut it off in the middle of the show.
Only beheading President Trump is allowed on twitter!
Everybody knows that.
But rNts like the recent ones by Keith Olbermann are okey dokie, then?
I don’t think his vids are throttled.
Not defending Bannon’s use of vivid prose, but I get his point
I’ll consider myself lucky then.
Remember when we had Freedom of Speech in this country. Oh well, nice while it lasted.
You have no idea what Bannon has been doing. Right now he s working with Chinese dissidents against the Communist Chinese government. He was instrumental in exposing the Biden's corruption re: China.
You're rooting for the wrong team, as is usual out here beyond the trees.
Not sure I understand the problem
It’s not like he is using his head anyway.../s
Oh but Alec Baldwin saying “We should go to Washington and stone Henry Hyde to death....And then we should go to his house and kill his family.” is perfectly ok.
Mass arrests of Dems involved with any vote fraud would be appropriate....could be done if only there was a DOJ....
Bannon is a smart guy but he’s also prone to repetitive speechifying and losing his “stuff” while in the midst of ranting.
On another note, it seems their humorectomy was successful...
“seems over the top...”
I’ve no idea anymore what “the top” could mean to the media.
“Whatever China says”? Is my best guess...
Go for it, Tart. The country is under attack and these queefs are agreeing with the speech police. I would hate to be next to them in battle.
Bannon is brilliant and does not need Twitter. Thankfully, Bannon’s messages get broadcast globally in many ways apart from Twitter and Facebook.
War Room Pandemic has had some great content lately, but Steve was over the top today. He needs to get some more sleep! He is beginning to interrupt as much as Hannity and it makes his show very hard to watch.
Today he took a really weird turn. It reminded me of the time period when Glenn Beck jammed his face into a bowl of cheetohs and begin talking in spiritual terms.
“Heads on pikes” is a classic expression... nothing controversial about it since pikes went out of use long ago and so, the expression holds no threat.
Antifa’s guillotines have a much more recent history... but when the communists pushing their toy guillotine get power they’ll end up killing people through malnutrition, mostly, due to their meddling in the economy, and not with their French “visual aid.”
Meanwhile, the two-bit trollop who graphically depicted the decapitation of President Trump is still on Twitter:

I did today, no more Youtube for me, and darn it I really enjoyed TwoSet Violin. But when they banned the video I was watching about the voter problems in Maricopa, that was it for me. Please get off Facebook too, no more excuses about keeping up with the grandchildren. You can still visit them, you can still call them, you can still be in their lives just as my grandparents were in my life when I was a child over 60 years ago, even though they lived on the other side of the country. Do not stay on Facebook, Facebook needs to fade way. Leave FB for the sake of your grandchildren, please!
Trump should quit Twitter on January 20th 2021.
