Steve Bannon -"If we lose the midterms...some in this room are going to prison, myself included."

“And I will tell you right now, as God is my witness,” Bannon told the crowd. “If we lose the midterms, if we lose 2028, some in this room are going to prison – myself included. They’re not gonna stop. They are getting more and more and more radical. And we have to counter that. And what do we have to counter it with? We have to count it with more action, more intense action, more urgency. We’re burning daylight.”

Filth like Bannon and the other fascist cesspool dwellers lie continuously because they know it is the path to ultimate power.

And they are right because at least half of the population in the USA is too stupid to know they are lying or too brainwashed to care.

The left; isn't murdering people in cold blood in international waters who pose no threat to us while kidnapping people off the streets here at home with no DUE PROCESS.

The left isn't pushing for an ever intrusive big government police state threatening the American Peoples' Bill of Rights beginning with the 1st Amendment.

Bannon is almost as good at projection as his master.

Thanks for the thread Swede
