... since the day of Trumps nomination, election, inauguration, fights against Mueller, impeachment BLM demonstrators and a loss election, the message from Bannon has been to crush the status quo, and destroy the establishment. All of it was designed by Bannon.

He's just making shit up, throwing out words like antifa and the Lincoln Project, never-trumpers and Romney.

God, even Bannon, who knows the actual true because he knew on Jan. 5 what was coming on Jan. 6, tried to call him on it.

For the crimes associated with the build the wall funds he and the vet were stealing and using as their own bank. But you've got to see what was written in the pardon to find out for sure. Wouldn't surprise me if they all got get out of jail free cards

STEVE BANNON HAS A NAZI PROBLEM

“Bannon sees the Pepes as kind of like trolls, and not like the Nazis like Richard Spencer and David Duke,” said one person who spoke to Bannon. “Everybody’s kind of struggling with it.”


BY TINA NGUYEN
Vanity Fair, Sept. 12, 2017

Excerpt...

For Bannon and his allies, purging extremist elements from the far-right movement is hard, because no matter how vocally they repudiate neo-Nazis and their brethren, those groups will hug back harder—especially if there’s a national platform for them to clamber on. “David Duke shows up for every media opportunity,” Bannon complained to Rose, referring to the former K.K.K. grand wizard. One person who met with Bannon recently described him as furious and preoccupied with the Nazi problem. “What the fuck do we do about the Nazis?” he asked at one point during their meeting, according to this person.

Complicating the issue are the rank-and-file Web-based Breitbart constituency that Bannon calls the “Pepes,” after the cartoon frog often used in memes promoting far-right ideology. It has not always been clear where the group’s mischief-making ends and anti-Semitism begins: the “Pepes” themselves gleefully Photoshop their foes into gas chambers, not because they actually believe in white supremacism, some say, but because they simply wanted to see the liberal Internet lose their minds. The Pepes’ outrageous stunts are responsibly in part for fueling the rise of Breitbart, and to an extent, Trumpism, but their refusal to stop tweaking progressives with their use of swastikas has now become a liability.

“Bannon sees the Pepes as kind of like trolls, and not like the Nazis like Richard Spencer and David Duke,” explained the person who spoke to Bannon. “Everybody’s kind of struggling with it. Like, ‘Oh yeah, there’s these people, they’re kind of trollish, they make a lot of jokes or whatever, maybe we wish they were a little bit nicer.’ But that’s different, categorically, than neo-Nazis at rallies throwing Nazi salutes and throwing up Nazi flags.”

Near the top of this heap of problems, however, is Bannon himself. After immortalizing Breitbart as a “platform for the alt-right” during the 2016 Republican National Convention—a slip of the tongue several of his colleagues wish he hadn’t made, in retrospect—Bannon inadvertently linked his site to Spencer’s white nationalist movement. The budding fascist had dubbed his own movement the “alt-right” back in 2010, using it to describe a movement dedicated to marginalizing Jews and minorities from white nations, establishing authoritarian governments, and rolling back equal rights for men and women. And Bannon’s apparent reticence to repudiate hate groups, like William F. Buckley did when he rejected the John Birch Society during the 1960s, only allowed them to grow.

Rudy's framing and blaming left and right, but Bannon's right at dead center, right in the eye of the storm.
