were celebrating the fact that Steve Bannon, the former Breitbart executive, was fired
from his position in the White House.
Now, we also admitted that obviously this does not abdicate the administration's role
in any of the racist bigotry that they've displayed since coming to office, but at least
it's some kind of a tiny little maybe start.
But there's one group that's really not happy about Bannon being fired, and that just happens
to be Republicans.
After Bannon was fired, he immediately went back to Breitbart.
Yes, he is back at Breitbart already, and they have decided that now they're pissed
off with the Trump Administration.
In spite of the fact that both Trump and Pence were tweeting out on Saturday morning how
much they love Steve Bannon, and we thank you for your service, and oh, please don't
spill any of the secrets you know about us.
They may not have said that last one, but that is basically what their we love Steve
Bannon tweets were all about, right?
I don't think Steve Bannon's going to hold back.
Right-wing media outlets, Matt Drudge, Breitbart itself, have now declared some kind of war
against the Trump Administration, though not necessarily against Donald Trump himself.
See, Steve Bannon, and his little friends over at Breitbart, believe that he was pushed
out of the administration by Jared Kushner, and possibly some other folks within the administration,
including H.R. McMaster, Trump's national security advisor.
What they're doing is they're actually starting to run stories trying to take down individual
members of the Trump Administration that they feel are responsible for Bannon's ouster.
H.R. McMaster in particular this past weekend, Breitbart already ran a story, saying that
he was a Quran-kissing terrorist sympathizer, and one can only imagine what they're going
to end up reporting about Jared Kushner once they finally get that ball rolling.
Here's what's interesting about this entire thing, is that Bannon is a guy who knows things
simply for the fact that he was there.
There's a lot more that he could reveal without having to resort to these lies like they're
telling about H.R. McMaster, and the inevitable lies that they're going to tell about Jared
Kushner.
Bannon knows the truth.
Bannon knows things that probably could take these guys down, that actually have a little
bit of credibility to them.
But Breitbart is so ingrained in that whole fake right-wing news media niche that they
won't bother reporting the real damning things about these people, because they know that
their audience can't understand it, so they have to make up these outlandish lies that
their little base will eat up like candy, and that's how they're going to keep people
loyal to Breitbart and not to the Trump Administration.
At the first sign of weakness from the Trump Administration, which Bannon has already hinted
at, Breitbart is going to go at Trump with full force.
Bannon admitted shortly after being fired in an interview that the White House that
we had hoped for, the one that I was a part of, is gone now.
The Trump presidency is over as we know it, is what Bannon said.
He was specifically referring to the policies that Bannon and the Breitbart crowd brought
to the White House, but I think we all know what he really means.
He's waiting for Donald Trump to slip up, to screw up, to break one single promise to
that alt-right Breitbart base, and the second he does, Bannon is coming out guns blazing
with all of the bad information that Donald Trump doesn't want the world
to know.
