Steve Bannon Suggests Jim Jordan and James Comer Are Bought
Newsweek ^ | Rachel Dobkin

Posted on 06/01/2024 9:32:40 PM PDT by joesbucks

The conservative talk show host called out House Judiciary Committee chair Jim Jordan of Ohio, House Oversight Committee chair James Comer of Kentucky and House Speaker Mike Johnson of Louisiana for not doing enough to help the MAGA cause.

"Once again. I beg of you. Where is Jim Jordan, where's Comer, where's Polly Pockets Johnson. Where are the subpoenas? Where is an investigation? Why are people not being held accountable? Why does it take [conservative activist] Mike Davis and [former Trump aide] Kash Patel and the same people over, and over, and over again. [Former Republican Nevada attorney general candidate] Sigal Chattah...Why does it take them pounding, pounding, pounding," Bannon said.

I think that Trump realizes that Merchan is his best election campaign tool.

Don’t shoot the goose that is laying the golden eggs.

Trump will get much further by playing victim than he will by being the bully. His cool collective manner in which he responds, in comparison to Biden’s angry shouting, will win him the election.

To be honest, they don’t have the power to do anything but hold hearings.

That is part of the myth, the con job, the political scam; and it is nothing bull droppings.

"They" have the power to
- effectively identify and pressure the Rino's within the R party
- to coordinate and act with the entire party as a team in lockstep especially when it interfaces with the MSM
- - to respond immediately and completely in both the Congress and to the public to every contrary claim or action by the Dems
- to take every opportunity to interface with the public about the good work the R's are doing and the contrary work the Dems are doing
- to highlight and propose on the floors of Congress meaningful action as warranted as the result hearings they do hold regardless of whether the proposals are likely to fail
- to essentially act as the Dem party has acted for at least the past 75+ years, but with a higher regard for our nation's principals.

There is certainly more, but I haven't had my first cup of coffee yet.

Jordan is more likely compromised than bought as the primary driver.

I think Jordan exposed himself in the whole opposition to electing McCarthy Speaker. MAGA supported him for Speaker, but he wouldn't vote for himself. Jordan is an establishment guy who merely plays to the base but doesn't actually deliver much. He has no teeth.

There’s likely enough smoke back to his wrestling days for there to be compromise fire.

When they have the power they still don’t do anything.

Bingo!

That is quite telling. What it tells me is as a body the R's have generally been effectively intimidated or coerced, or even effectively influenced by persuasive Rino's. They have been allowed just enough room to protect their facade of being effective R's.

Of course, Trump accomplished quite a bit during his time in office, despite the strong efforts of those on both sides of the aisle.

American voters for Trump sensed a strong and capable leader was needed.

Looking at what has occurred since Trump was removed from office makes it obvious the Trump voters were correct.

“American voters for Trump sensed a strong and capable leader was needed.”

*************

If Trump succeeds in getting elected again his second term will be another battle royale. The DC Swamp knows he has a good chance of winning and will be ready for Round #2. Trump will need to clean house right away, without any hesitation lest the GOPe talk him out of it. He cannot allow people to remain in positions where they can subvert his agenda. He failed to do that last time and it cost him and the nation dearly.

Bully? For having Congress investigate prosecutorial misconduct, election interference, due process violations, profiteering and on and on. By doing nothing he ends up I’m jail.

bought?
NO.

being blackmailed with viable threats to family and friends?
Abosolutely yes is my OPINION.

Many of us have come to believe that no one gets into government... in either party or any party... unless they are blackmailable.

"Bannon is going out of his way to sucker punch Jim Jordan."

Jordan's a trained martial artist, and not just an average one. He's supposed to be able to deal with it.

“Jordans a trained martial artist”; never heard that before, do you know what he trained in?

So why do them?

I do believe the Jan 6th committee recommended some. But Jordan especially was saying indictments would be flying out of his committee.

If they were going to end up like Trump, they would have long ago been indicted for something. Remember, they are little more than ham sandwiches.

Don’t know why everyone is wasting all their energy trying to bring the fight to the corrupt congress. It’s myopic.

The fight needs to be moved to the county level, where state and local laws and mores can be used and applied against any threat.

Elect a pro-2nd amendment, constitutional sheriff in your county. That gives you the legal and armed muscle to take out fascist democrats in the county. Use special home-rule elections to remove any and all democrats from local office.

Protecting your family and community from leftists isn’t rocket science.

No. Johnson and Comer are working for the other side, probably Jordan too, which is most disappointing.

The ham sandwiches in this picture are Navarro, Trump's accountant whose name one doesn't recall right now; (Jewish name, starts with a W...), Rudy and Bannon are up next.

Not to mention all the J6 people who were set up.

How much do they pay you?

Apparently since I don’t get paid, I volunteer?

Agreeing with Bannon somehow makes me some sort of operative? Guess so. But your real grieveance is with him. He claims that’s what it is.
