Bannon vows Trump’s opponents will be prosecuted in a second term | CNN Politics
Steve Bannon, a longtime ally of Donald Trump, vowed investigations and prosecutions of those who have probed the former president and his political allies, declaring at a conservative gathering Saturday that Inauguration Day in 2025 will be “accountability day.”
Pointing to Trump’s recent conviction in New York, Bannon told a crowd at Turning Point Action’s “The People’s Convention” in Detroit, hours before Trump was scheduled to speak, that the former president’s allies are going to “get every single receipt.”
“You are going to be investigated, prosecuted and incarcerated,” he said. “This has nothing to do with retribution. It has nothing to do with revenge. Because retribution and revenge might be another order of magnitude. This has to do with justice.”
Bannon was referring to recent comments by Trump vowing to be his supporters’ “retribution” and saying that “sometimes revenge can be justified.”
VOTE
Abstaining isn’t voting for Trump.
It’s refusing to stand in his way.
Republicans are counting on your indifference.
"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing"
And it doesn't matter what reason they have for doing nothing. At the end of the day, they still do nothing
I am 110% in favor of breaking the two party stranglehold. It's long overdue. It needs to end yesterday.
But hot fuck, this is LITERALLY THE WORST POSSIBLE TIME to vote third party. I read here and on Reddit that people are promising to vote third party because Biden hasn't personally solved the middle east conflict or whatever, but doing that in the presidential election amounts to screaming "fuck yeah I love Trump and everything he stands for".
Vote Biden or vote Trump. There is no third choice. Doing literally anything else is a vote for Trump.
Another million votes for Biden in a bright blue state like California isn't going to swing the election in Arizona or Georgia.
Meanwhile, the DOJ has done dick all to defend voting rights in purple or red states over the last four years.
Dude I live in a semi-rural area of California, please vot for the local elections you motherfuckers. Every bit helps on that front.
Helpful to know who you're voting for. We got screwed in Houston when Democrats turned out in support of veteran Dem State Senator John Whitmire, and he ended up being very friendly with Republican governor Greg Abbott.
Thats one of the risks ya run with, the Republicans are running controlled opposition/plants but that isnt a thing to cause one not to vote. It shows a certain amount of weakness and even desperation.
I remember the BLM marches through Houston and the violent police response. Police smashing up people's cars. Police firing beanbag rounds into crowds of elderly folks and children. Police rounding hundreds of people up in Discovery Green Park and arresting them on trespassing charges.
You can call that desperate, but it worked. Four years later, the police budget is even bigger and there's an ambient terror in the streets as massive tank-like vans periodically drive through the center of town.
Conservatives have this city on lockdown. I don't see anyone voting their way out of this vice grip.
Naturally, this is complete hogwash.
