Bannon Fights Eviction From Italian ‘Gladiator School’
Church Militant ^ | 10/16/19 | Martina Moyski

A fundamentally political move against the conservative populist

VIA TRISULTI, Italy (ChurchMilitant.com) - Italy's ministry for culture is claiming it has evicted Steve Bannon's "Gladiator School" from a 13th-century Italian monastery, 38 miles south of Rome.

"As the DHI indicated when the Ministry for Culture first announced this politically motivated manoeuvre back in May, we will fight our case in court with every resource at our disposal," said Benjamin Harnwell, director of the Dignitatis Humanae Institute, in comments to Church Militant.

"We look forward to demonstrating that the objections against the DHI promoted by the Left over the last two years are 100% without any foundation whatsoever," he added.

According to Agence France-Presse, the ministry announced on Oct. 11 that the Dignitatis Humanae Institute (DHI) had "falsely claimed to have the necessary requisites to take part in a tender to lease the monastery," leading to its eviction.

Steve Bannon, former White House advisor, has sought to transform the medieval monastery into the "Academy for the Judeo-Christian West," nicknamed his "Gladiator School," a place where he can mold cultural and political "gladiators" to carry out his fight against liberal elites, and has invested significant funds into the project.

I guess everybody needs a hobby.

Does anyone get this gist of this mish-mash article?

What's Bannon doing investing in some kind of Whatever in Italy? Why isn't he doing Whatever he's up to here in the good ole USA?

What ever happened to Who, What, When, Where and Why?

My minds in blender and I need an Exedrin.

You Tube seems to have deep sixed the Bruce skit.

Censorship on the rise.

Of course, this is to be expected.

Rule six was done away with long ago.

sounds like he’s setting up a think tank/coaching institute aimed at preserving Judeo-Christian values in Europe by coaching euro folks how to counter the liberal wackadoodles hellbent on belittling and destroying a thousand years of WASP/C culture and values.

::I read it. It’s in English, but I still don’t get it. Evicted from Gladiator School? ::

~~~~~~~
It is summed up in the last sentence of this excerpt:

Steve Bannon, former White House advisor, has sought to transform the medieval monastery into the “Academy for the Judeo-Christian West,” nicknamed his “Gladiator School,” a place where he can mold cultural and political “gladiators” to carry out his fight against liberal elites, and has invested significant funds into the project.

It’s an institute dedicated to protecting religious liberty... but I hope Bannon can pay for the upkeep on the place, those old buildings can be a chore.

It’s not a rent problem, it’s a taking flak problem. The communists and the perverts in Rome and elsewhere are throwing everything at him they can so you can bet they are using construction codes and every regulation in the book to find a way to shut him down.
