Steve Bannon Out at Breitbart?
Drudge, a Bannon foe, blares:
Welp. pic.twitter.com/3zCA9m47zu
— Larry O'Connor (@LarryOConnor) January 4, 2018
President Donald Trump’s growing feud with Steve Bannon is threatening the former White House strategist’s leadership of the conservative Breitbart News website... Mr. Bannon's longtime benefactors, billionaires Robert Mercer and his daughter Rebekah Mercer, are actively distancing from him even before the expected release of Michael Wolff's book... They and other Breitbart News Network LLC board members on Thursday were debating whether to oust Mr. Bannon as chairman, with many supportive of the move, according to a person familiar with the exchanges. Among the considerations are Breitbart's contractual relationships with other entities, including Sirius XM radio, that involve Mr. Bannon....For his part, Bannon recently did some fence mending by stating that he still "supports" Trump and considers him a "great man." But he hit Trump in two ways Trump will be unlikely to forgive: he added to the Russian Collusion narrative, so that Jake Tapper (and others) can now say "even Steve Bannon says this was treasonous," and Trump is very, very pissed off about this whole ginned-up Deep State strike. And he also knocked Trump's kids, allegedly, who are probably among the few people Trump really cares about.
Asked Thursday whether Breitbart should oust Mr. Bannon, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said: "I certainly think that it's something they should look at and consider."

We're so far past the Galactic Stupidity Threshold, as a country, that of course it's pointless to point out that the entirety of the infamous Don Jr. meeting with the Russian lawyer is known, and the only dubious parts of it are the fact that the Russki was connected to Fusion GPS (she went directly from being with them to the meeting), and that she was admitted to the US on a parole basis, which is a visa requiring some fancy footwork and indulgence by DHS/DOJ.
I would have had a lower-wattage response to Bannon, but regardless it will be nearly forgotten before you know it.
The clock, she moves fast in the Trump Era.

And lock her up means the deep state that tried to overturn an election, and overlooked "treason" by Hillary. (and lock up the pedophiles, some overlap there)

So there maybe is a bit more to this Bannon tiff, but yawn, whatever. My impression w/o studying him in any depth is that Trump will give a New Yorker rant about someone, but he doesn't seem to hold grudges. I don't know anything about Bannon except that Breitbart was hugely enthusiastic about Trump from early in his campaign.

I thought Bannon was an asset to the conservative movement, but then Alabama and now this. It seems he's purposely pulling some kamikaze shit in a dumb feud with Trump.
He needs to go, and maybe us realizing this now is better than him being able to field a bunch of Roy Moore type candidates in 2018 that almost look like deliberate attempts to lose elections to Democrats.

Bannon could have came out and refuted Wolf's summarization of all this. He didn't. So in short. Fuck him. He went all sour grapes on the bit and is trying to stay more relevant than he is. The worst part is that he gave these douchenozzles in the MSM any ammo on the whole RUSSIA!!!! story. Fucking asshole. I hope Breitbart throws him to the curb or I'll start avoiding their stories like the NYSlimes.

The fates have dialed up an extremely favorable set of circumstances for the mid-terms. The WH is in a position to improve those further over the next 8 months. But a significant portion of the Beltway GOP is as opposed to Trump's very popular agenda as are the dimmest Dems. GOP doesn't change, Trump is hobbled to a level far below his potential to help the world.

When Comey testified to Congress early last year he told Congress the reason the FBI didn't tell Congress about their investigation into the Trump campaign team when they began the investigation in 2016 was because the head of the Counter Intel group recommended not to do so because it was too sensitive. That was Priestap.

Nobody would have paid it any mind until Trump tried to sue to get the book from being published. It would have been in the scrap pile with other fake bullshit like the dossier.

Really it seems the bowing and scraping to please the president started in earnest with Obama.
Our Roman Senate did the same thing as the OG Romans and ceded most of their authority to the executive branch and the bureaucracy so this is what happens. Also a result of how it's easier to report on what a single person is doing (the Prez) than actually taking the time to follow 535 congressmen.
Not that Bannon is an angel here. My first thought was what in the fuck are you doing talking to the media? For God's sake when are people on our side going to learn to stop talking to these asshats?
From the look of him, I'd have to guess Bannon has a serious problem with alcohol. That would account for some of the wilder statements he made.
I also thought he will get canned at Breitbart. We're not in a forgiving mood for people crossing the president.
One thing I think is important here is that the source material for all of this outrage is coming from a profession weasel.

Stephen Miller is the force in the White House that hopefully still has a lot of influence, and he writes great speeches.
But there are a lot of balls to juggle. Shutting down (and locking up?) Mueller and those still attempting the "coup" -- would help a lot. Still lotsa purging to do on the inside.

Yea, I always thought that line of reasoning was bullshit.
I do think though that Trump going into Election Night thought he was going to lose. At least he said so.
But Trump worked his ass off in that campaign, he played all 4 quarters.
I was honestly worried early on that Trump would get so behind in the polls that he would concede the race early. But I was still skeptical of Trump back then. Now I'm skeptical of every Republican not named Trump.

The same strategy was how every Republican would have dealt with Hillary. Except Trump.

Nobody. That's who.

In the meantime, Trump is getting things done and helping every day Americans.

So the BS about her crying after the election and being promised he'd lose was a dorky thing and no way.
I did think Trump looked shocked at winning...not because he thought he'd lose, but just overwhelmed with relief and the realization that he beat The Hag like a whipped mule, the MSM, the polls, the pundits, the voter hacking and all the rest. It was surreal for all, including myself.
The rest of the rumor mill I have not bothered to read. But allowing that Wolfe in the WH was stupid, whoever allowed it. And Bannon has shown his true color of mud. The thought of him running in 2020 is laughable if not so stoopid.
Unsure of the timing, but glad it is not October.
Meanwhile, I do wonder if President Trump is playing with his laser again and diverting the kitty cat media. You'd think they might, I dunno, be writing about Iran.

Heck, he freaking admitted it a year ago that he ran to Comey with it. The media seems to omit that..and the former CIA Balloon Head and him posing with isis dudes on one of McCant's "missions." There is a photo of Balloon Head posing with a big ole gun, with the magazine duct taped and real soldiers/Marines mocked him. I probably saw it on this here blog.

==============
So a quick rundown for what's gone down in the last 72:1) Nunes and the House oversight have a late night pow-wow with Rosenstein and afterwards Nunes seems somewhat pleased
2) The DoJ OIC is sending its working papers to DoJ on January 15
3) The FBI sends a tranche of requested documents to the appropriate House committee
4) Judge orders Fusion GPS to finally turn over House-subpoened bank documents.5) DoJ reopens Clinton email server investigation
6) The Dow breaks 25,000 for the first time.
What did I leave out?

I really don't have a problem with guys doing opposition research, they all do it, but using Fusion for oppo research is a strange choice for a Republican. Still, it has nothing to do with the Russia dossier.

Interesting about Benghazi and think you are on to the truth...all of the higher ups knew about the gun running. Rumors were that the Ambassador was supposed to be "rescued" and things got out of hand with the barbarians. Or that he was Arkancided (speaking of which, lots of small plane accidents. Rule of thumb, if you know Billary and Co, don't get into a private plane).

Those people re so invested in the collusion meme, there is no way they can back out. I think this Bannon vs Trump meme is intended to distract from and diminish the likely revelation that Barky McFuckstick, the DNC and the GOPe bought and paid for foreign espionage against a presidential candidate. Then they used their sycophantic boot lickers in the MSM to disseminate it publicly and their deep state operatives to obtain a FISA warrant to continue their espionage.
If that is the case, I hope their necks are broken in the fall when the rug is pulled out from under them.

SteveOReno - there are a couple approved by the NRA Competition Division for match use in the U.S. - Silver Mountain and Hex Systems. They use microphones on the target frame to plot the impact of the bullet. For a variety of reasons I don't particularly like them for match use but they're perfect for casual shooting. The downside is the price - about $3k each. Another alternative are any number of wireless camera based systems which aren't as accurate as the acoustic systems, but also good for plinking.

The GOP didn't do themselves any favors by running Moore but when the race was down to two, the GOP sabotaged their own guy. Moore's loss is directly attributable to their buffoonery.

His wife is an amazing shot: competitive shooter and she can hit the snot out of a snail at several hundred yards. I like me them 2A supporting, NRA Instructoring women.

He seems to be a bit of a squish... Talks a big fat game about being a hardcore Democrat during the election, then immediately swings into "reach across the aisle" mode...
I got a feeling Trump may be able to use this guy. And this guy may be thinking that he can use Trump as well.
A "maverick" democrat, voting with McConnell every once in a while, to keep his ass safe in that deep, deep, deep red state?
If he can keep his electorate happy, and keep the GOP from putting up stiff opposition... maybe it ain't so bad? I don't give a shit what they guy *thinks*, I care how he *votes* on the pivotal battleground votes.

That is what I would be telling him. From his NYC developer/celebrity/tabloid days, Trump and his lawyers know how to frame an NDA.
If Bannon wants a second act, he will have his lawyer issue a carefully worded statement that the writer took things out of context, mumble mumble, that he was misunderstood, mumble mumble, and of course feels that with what has come out that Trump's family was setup by evil Dems and then blackout until 2020 or so.
The real shame is that a lot of really bright guys in Republican administrations or in Congress keep blabbing to reporters--they are not your friends and are leftist dems. Maybe it is validation or something that you have power.
Harry Truman said it best about press coverage in less polarized times for the media, "If you want a friend in Washington, get a dog."

Those of us subjected to reading books in the 20th century know that it was neither.
Brutus of "Et tu, Brutus" fame was, finally---- if you think about it, just an afterthought from a disappointed father.
The statement in the Heart of Darkness about the hidden hero who everybody was excited about for awhile was, ultimately, "Mistah Kurtz, he dead." But that's not it either,
It was Alcibiades, (Socrates' favorite) about whom they said that in a fight "He bites, like a woman."
To which he (supposedly replied, "No, like a Lion!!")--A weak, lame cover, actually, that didn't quite work. After which he split to offer his services to, I think it was Darius, but I might have been absent from class that day.
If one really wants to know, Bannon, (and anybody else who really cares to), can easily "look it up," and can quickly check out how that adventure in Persia worked out for Alcibiades. It did not, as I remember , "work out as expected."

Not to say that there's times it doesn't suck taking the dog out for a walk in the dark at 28 below WITHOUT windchill factor. So when you get used to the cold, what other people would consider really cold feels great! If that makes sense.

Yep. Look for pressure using wedge issue votes on Heitkamp, Manchin, and other folks from red states as well. Their votes on the individual mandate and tax bill are going to come up in 2018 if the economy keeps roaring. You will probably see some energy bills that force these red state Dems to choose between voters and campaign donors as well. And the CCW reciprocity bill is in part designed to squeeze red state Dem senators as well.
For example, if you were this new senator and liked your job from AL, would you vote to shutdown the government over DACA and funding a border wall?
The job of the majority leader is a bit misunderstood--Robert Caro's Master of the Senate best characterizes it--the majority leader's job is to keep the senators on his side happy--Susan Collins, Ernst, and others did not want to face reporters every day questioning them about a Moore ethics investigation nor go to the voters with this in 2018. I'm sure that they were happy to see Moore lose. That is also why Schumer probably made Franken walk the plank to remove him being an issue for other Dem senators in 2018.
