    For the unaware Bannon, former White House Chief Strategist for Donald Trump, is not just a person with conspiracies about Epstein but actually a person who conspired with Epstein about trying to rebrand his image right before his arrest. An explicit part of that strategy was to normalize relations with him and implicate as many people as possible to take heat off of the criminals who sold and purchased girls from him.

    Very similar to what the Nazis did during several elections in Germany during the 1930s. After Hitler became chancellor there were a couple of big elections which could have theoretically turned things around but they made sure people voted a certain way by doing stuff like this.

    These fuckwits could hold a gun to my head and I’m still not intimidated. Now we just need the liberals and Zionists out and I’ll gladly vote for the lefty that replaces them.

      If history is anything to go by, the US is headed towards a grim situation where if that form of intimidation doesn’t work, they go to the next thing, which may be to point the gun at the person next to you and pull the trigger. And if that still doesn’t work, they pull the trigger on you. They are closing the door on free and open elections.

    I’m so excited to get yelled at by rank-and-file Democrats for not turning out to vote when Republicans win 99% of the vote in the midterms.

        Oh no, I’m definitely voting — I’ve never missed an election. But voting is definitely not sufficient to avoid being yelled at for not turning out to vote, and I have low confidence the announced results will be strongly correlated with the actual ballots cast.

    It’s been confirmed that Bannon is a Jesuit-trained psychopath, so there’s really nothing to believe.

    Also, we don’t have a President, as Trump was stripped of it in October of 2025.
