Steve Bannon: Maga can rule for 50 years and Farage will be PM
The Sunday Times ^ | 30 Nov 2024 | Louise Callaghan

For the firebrand Trump guru, beating ‘whining’ Democrats was just the beginning — at home and abroad

Under a cloudless desert sky on the day before Thanksgiving, one of Donald Trump’s top henchmen is denouncing a range of enemies including, but not limited to: the Department of Justice, federal bureaucrats, the Republican leader of the Senate and liberal former talk show host Ellen DeGeneres, who reportedly moved to the UK after the Republican electoral victory.

“They’re all infesting the Cotswolds,” gripes Steve Bannon, stretching out on a sunchair at his holiday home in the shadow of Arizona’s Santa Catalina mountains. “F*** them. They’re not resilient … They had every advantage of state power. They had the high ground. And guess what, we broke them and now they’re whining like little children.”

Bannon should be the happiest man in America. It’s been more than a decade since he backed a reality TV star to become president. A month since he was released from prison after being convicted of two counts of contempt of Congress (for refusing to comply with a subpoena from the committee investigating the January 6 attack on the US Capitol) and serving a four-month sentence. And three weeks since the leader of his movement won re-election as president of the United States, thereby freeing Bannon from the threat of another 15 years in jail on fraud, conspiracy and money laundering charges.

When I meet him at his house in Arizona (one of several he owns across the US) at 7am on Wednesday last week, his 71st birthday, he doesn’t seem like someone who has won. For Bannon, beating the Democrats was just the start. Now comes the struggle against dissenting elements in the Republican Party.

“We are so close,” he tells me. “We just need to see this through.”

F*** them.

Wrongfully sent to prison. I would be bitter too. But this man fights for all of us, same as Trump. Go destroy our enemies!

It is a pity that barf alerts have increasingly fallen out of use at FR.

Just curious, are any of Obama/Pelosi/Biden/Harris supporters referred to as ‘henchmen’?

Yes. “Henchmen.”

I noticed that, too.

It seems almost everything posted merits a barf alert.

Of course not. And the Times ignores the first rule of Woke: the Woke name should be "persons of hench," not henchmen.

“an election the Maga world claims, falsely, was stolen by the Democrats”

Fair and Balanced

Oh Wait

That’s the other sniveling, groveling, regime media outlet

The Times endorsed Comrade Starmer in the 2024 UK election. All you need to know about the rag.

That’s not how the play is set up.

Neither team of actors gets to govern for that long.

So he’s a ‘henchman’ and not a minion? Where do they get these commie propagandists? Old Soviet Union alumni?

This was written before the photo op. Why would he consent to this pixie journalista.

Considering video technology today, she might not actually be there at all.
