When it comes to sharing his opinions on pretty much any topic, Steve Bannon has never been shy, and today, in defense of his good friend, Donald J. Trump, Bannon eviscerated the world’s wealthiest man, calling him ‘incompetent,” and suggesting Musk had no business receiving the kind of trust or praise Trump bestowed upon him.

Today, while speaking with two of his co-hosts, former US Congressman Dave Brat and social media personality Jack Posbiec, Steve Bannon appeared to have had enough of the very public feud between Elon Musk and President Trump and mercilessly unloaded on Musk.

“Elon Musk is working for himself,” Bannon told his co-hosts. The outspoken War Room icon explained, “President Trump empowered him more than anyone’s ever been empowered in this government! He [President Trump] had his back. Promoted this guy. And when people like me, who said, ‘You’re making a mistake! This is a bad guy! He’s gonna turn on you! He’s not with us. He’s also totally incompetent!’ And when President Trump said, ‘Hey, give this guy a shot!’ and I trust President Trump‘s judgment,” Bannon said and explained how he backed off “a little.” Bannon explained to his audience that as soon as Elon didn’t think he was running things or didn’t “get the adoration,” he “turned” on President Trump. But according to Bannon, Musk didn’t just turn on President Trump, “He [Musk] turned on the country—on the American people—and President Trump has had enough of it!”

Bannon, arguably one of the most important figures in the conservative culture, wasn’t finished sharing his disdain for Musk’s childish behavior because Trump’s “One Big Beautiful” bill wasn’t written the way Musk thought it should be written. He began to attack Trump on social media. Bannon suggested that Musk could have spoken with some of the top Republicans, with whom he has relationships, but instead, he began “tweeting the most vicious stuff you could tweet!” In Elon Musk’s attempt to score points in his social media war with President Trump, he tried to group him in “with those pedophiles on the [Epstein’s] island!” And then, Bannon really unloaded, saying, “He called for the president to be impeached and JD Vance to take his role!” Bannon continued, “As hard as we’ve worked in all the years! Some punk is gonna sit there and go, he should be impeached!?”

Bannon finally warned that it won’t be long before Democrats begin to cozy up to Musk and before we know it, “He’ll write a $500 million check for Hakeem Jefferies—He’ll be across the thing, looking to impeach President Trump—looking to help steal the ’28 election!” Bannon didn’t give any specifics on how they should do it, but told his audience, “Let’s get ahead of it!”

In this clip, Bannon eviscerates Musk for promising, but not delivering the promised trillion dollars in cuts to the American people.

“Here’s the problem with Elon—It’s very simple. He promised $1 trillion and cuts and waste, fraud and abuse,” Bannon said.

“In the joint, you know, the State Of The Union or the joint thing of Congress—Remember the mantra of going through all the Social Security people that were 200 years old?” Bannon asked. “Not one penny was ever found!” he exclaimed. “Okay, where is the fraud in Medicaid, which is ripe for fraud?” he asked. “He [Musk] never came up with anything! Bannon said. “Where is the fraud at the Pentagon, which is the Mack Daddy’s of waste, fraud and abuse? Not one penny!” Bannon exclaimed.

Here is the full-length clip of Bannon’s observations about Elon Musk and his relationship with President Trump:

This isn’t the first time Bannon ever took a shot at Musk and his integrity or character, in a March 2023 interview with Tim Pool, Steve Bannon told him, “Elon Musk is a total and complete phony—He is owned lock, stock, and barrel by the Chinese Communist Party!”

Watch:

What do you think? Is Steve Bannon correct about Elon Musk? Is it odd how Musk has been praising Trump for almost a year and suddenly, he wants him to be impeached?

Black Lives Matter Activist in Boston Pleads Guilty to Federal Fraud Charges – Scammed Donors to Fund Her Lifestyle

Screencap of YouTube video.

A Black Lives Matter activist in Boston named Monica Cannon-Grant pleaded guilty to federal charges this week, admitting that she scammed donors and used their money to fund her own lavish lifestyle.

Cannon-Grant was previously held up as an admired figure. The city of Boston named her the Bostonian of the year at one point for her ‘social justice activism’ and she was even recognized by the Boston Celtics basketball team for her efforts.

She is now facing a minimum of two years in prison.

The New York Post reports:

BLM-linked activist admits conning donors to fund her lavish lifestyle

A once-celebrated Boston social activist has pleaded guilty to defrauding donors — including Black Lives Matter — out of thousands of dollars that she used as a personal piggy bank.

Monica Cannon-Grant, 44, pleaded guilty Monday to 18 counts of fraud-related crimes that she committed with her late husband while operating their Violence in Boston (VIB) activists group, according to the US Attorney’s Office in Massachusetts.

The activist scammed money — including $3,000 from a BLM group — while claiming it was to help feed children and run protests like one in 2020 over the murder of George Floyd and police violence.

Cannon-Grant also conned her way into getting $100,000 in federal pandemic-related unemployment benefits — which she used to pay off her personal auto loan and car insurance policy.

But she has now confessed to transferring funds to personal bank accounts to pay for rent, shopping sprees, delivery meals, visits to a nail salon — and even a summer vacation to Maryland.

Just amazing.

Here’s a local video report:

She should pay back every penny.

Keith Olbermann Backpedals Furiously With Apology for Threatening CNN’s Scott Jennings – Jennings Responds (VIDEO)

As the Gateway Pundit reported yesterday, former MSNBC host and generally unhinged leftist Keith Olbermann, appeared to threaten CNN’s conservative pundit Scott Jennings on Twitter saying, ‘You’re next motherf**ker.’

Well, Olbermann may have gotten a phone call or a visit from the FBI because today he walked back those comments with a full-throated apology.

RedState has an update:

To quickly recap, Scott Jennings, a Salem Media Network radio host and conservative CNN political commentator, reacted to breaking news on Monday that Kimmel had been reinstated by tweeting, “So basically his employer suspended him for being an insensitive pr**k, and we don’t live in an authoritarian regime? Got it.”

This enraged Olbermann, who proceeded to tweet what many, including Jennings, perceived to be a threat. “You’re next, motherf**ker. But keep mugging to the camera.” Jennings tagged Patel and included a screengrab of the tweets in response.

Though the FBI hasn’t commented as to whether an investigation was launched, Olbermann ostensibly appears to have thought twice about what he tweeted and deleted, apologizing profusely in tweets posted on Tuesday and claiming what he wrote was “misinterpreted”:

See Olbermann’s tweet below:

Scott Jennings, always a class act, offered this hilarious response:

Keith Olbermann really needs help. The guy is just so out of control.

Where is Lance Twiggs? Kirk Assassin’s Transgender Lover Has Vanished

Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson and roommate Lance Twiggs

Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson lived with his transgender partner – a male-to-female trans named Lance “Luna” Twiggs.

The FBI used Robinson’s texts with his transgender partner to solidify that Robinson was the assassin. Lance Twiggs has not been charged with any crime; however, federal authorities are still investigating.

Last week, Utah authorities released the text exchange between Tyler Robinson and his transgender lover, Lance Twiggs, sent shortly after Kirk’s assassination.

Utah County District Attorney Jeff Gray announced seven charges against Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson. They will also be seeking the death penalty.

Robinson was charged with:

– Count 1: Aggravated murder (capital offense)
– Count 2: Felony reckless discharge of a firearm causing bodily injury
– Count 3: Felony obstruction of justice for hiding the firearm
– Count 4: Felony obstruction of justice for discarding the clothing he wore during the shooting
– Count 5: Witness tampering for asking roommate to delete incriminating messages
– Count 6: Witness temperating for demanding trans roommate stay silent, and not speak to police
– Count 7: Commission of a violent offense in the presence of a child

Jeff Gray released the chilling texts between Tyler Robinson and his “love” Lance Twiggs.

Read the text exchange here:

Lance Twiggs was reportedly cooperating with the FBI, however, according to the Daily Mail he has seemingly vanished.

“If [Lance Twiggs] ever comes back, it will be in a body bag,” a neighbor said to the Daily Mail. “That’s not a threat – I’m just saying that there are so many people who want a piece of him he’d be mad to show his face in public again. This was a generational event.”

The Daily Mail reported:

The Trans boyfriend of Charlie Kirk’s alleged assassin has fled their former lovenest – and locals tell the Daily Mail they never want to see him again.

Lance Twiggs, 22, was led away for questioning when police swooped on the smart three-bed condo he shared with accused gunman Tyler Robinson, 22.

Shaken neighbors say the part time plumber has not been back to the $320,000 property in St. George, Utah – one declaring: ‘Good riddance. I never want to see either of them again.’

His beaten-up Infinity compact is still parked in his space with his work gear tossed across the back seat and a sandwich wrapper and a drink on the front passenger seat.

Upstairs lights have been left on for more than a week and notes and Amazon packages are piling up outside the home owned by Twiggs’s devout Mormon family.
