Steve Bannon Threatens Ari Melber, Says Matt Gaetz's DOJ Is Coming For Him And 'All The Producers of MSNBC'

Source: MEDIAite

Nov 14th, 2024, 12:38 pm


Former Trump White House advisor Steve Bannon told MSNBC’s Ari Melber and “all you hosts” and producers at the network that they had better “lawyer up” because Matt Gaetz’s Justice Department would soon be coming for them.

Bannon made the threat while gleefully addressing his War Room podcast audience on Wednesday after President-elect Donald Trump had officially nominated Rep. Gaetz (R-FL) to be his attorney general. Gaetz, who is facing an ethics probe in the House for allegedly having sex with a minor, immediately resigned his seat upon the announcement and amid speculation that the House Ethics report was about to be published.

“The American people weighed in and you were inundated for years. Weissman, you were on TV with MSNBC and all the producers, MSNBC. Preserve your documents. Ari Melber and all you hosts. Preserve your documents. All of it,” Bannon said, referring also to MSNBC legal analyst Andrew Weissmann.

“You better be worried. You better lawyer up. Some of you young producers, you better call mom and dad tonight. Mom and dad, ‘You know a good lawyer?’ Lawyer up.

But look closer. Was it an overwhelming mandate? Yeah, like the first Fatass inauguration was the biggest ever! Except it was not. Like the Fatass golf game is the best ever. It is, after he races around in my souped-up Fatass golf cart and drops a strategic ball to replace the one hit in the water. Oh yeah, and change a few numbers on the score card. Like I’m the smartest, bestest deal maker ever. Says the man with four? Six?
Who knows How many bankruptcies?

The only thing we can sure is BIGLIEST is the lies.

Oh yeah, and Lara can sing.

The irony is that it’s Bannon who is going on trial on Dec. 9 for committing fraud . It’s a NY State case, so there’s nothing that Donnie can do to pardon him.

If Bannon had any brains he should try to keep himself OUT of jail before he tries to put other people IN jail.
So dumb he is apparently not familiar with freedom of speech and freedom of the press.

Bannon would know about lawyering up.
His CHINESE benefactors spent millions for him to lawyer up.
If there is anyone who needs (more) jailtime it's Bannon.
