Is... is Steve Bannon doing a better job of covering the Trump/Musk junta than @nytimes.com?

Wow — Bannon calls musk a “parasitic illegal immigrant” and says DOGE hasn’t found “one penny” of savings in the proposed budget.

of course. At least he's actually calling a thing a thing in straight language, which is something the press & the Dems for that matter don't care to do anymore.

OK, but also: punch Steve Bannon.

I do not want to hand it to Steve Bannon

I'm not trying to, and I wish we lived in a world where comparing the burblings of that pickled corpse to political coverage in the "paper of record" didn't make it seem that way

Oh yeah, I did not mean to make it seem like I was accusing you of doing that lol. Just commenting on the horrors...

I was gonna accuse him though: Damnit Geiiga, don't hand it to Steve Bannon.

It's a fairly low bar.

bannon's positioning himself to tap into the explosive fury when the predictable economic consequences of what musk is doing start to hit conservative and/or politically apathetic americans hard, so he can steer it into his strain of fascism.

If I’ve said it once I’ve said it a million times. Republicans condemn Trump more harshly than Democrats do, by a lot. Liz Cheney, Adam Kinzinger, Lincoln Project, etc.
