During his Warroom broadcast, Bannon played clips of journalist Robert Costa and Bob Woodward explaining how events unfolded prior to the Jan. 6 riot.
"You look at January 5th, we discovered that Steve Bannon, the former White House strategist, was there at the Willard Hotel blocks from the White House with Rudy Giuliani, having an almost war-room-type meeting with other Trump allies the eve before the January 6th insurrection," Costa recently explained to MSNBC. "And Bannon had actually been in close touch with President Trump for days before January 6th. Based on our reporting, he privately told President Trump to have a reckoning on January 6th. And he said to the president, it's time to kill the Biden presidency in the crib."
Bannon seemed proud to confirm that the conversation had taken place.
"Yeah, because his legitimacy," Bannon said of Biden. "42% of the American people think that Biden did not win the presidency legitimately."
"It killed itself," he continued. "Just look at what this illegitimate regime is doing. It killed itself. OK? But we told you from the very beginning, just expose it, just expose it, never back down, never give up and this thing will implode."

(82,849 posts)They don't have any evidence or proof of that, they just think it for some eldritch reason that can't be connected to anything else in the world, it's like a shared conviction they have that just sprang spontaneously into each of their minds, and nobody knows how or why.

(16,069 posts)Have they been traumatized? Hypnotized? Neutered? Why isnt this guy and Barr n all the players in this insurrection been at least interviewed by now. Hes bragging. The pillow guy is still at it. Its now almost ten months and theyre still freely holding rallies, web sites n just no end to their constant call about a stolen election. Too many Rs..most of them, have lost their voice n their spines. This distraction of lies upon more lies are literally pulling us apart. Those insurrection arrests have been given a pass to take vacations.,with their passports..allowed for one reason or another to not face justice. Im just losing faith here.
