YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Trump ally Steve Bannon is not having the time of his life that he thought he’d be having during the second Trump administration, and he appeared to have a psychotic breakdown during his podcast this week. Bannon blasted the Trump administration letting the “deep state” win against them. His rationale is that none of the conspiracy theories he’s pushed for years are being investigated, which in his mind obviously means that dark forces are working against him. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains what’s actually happening.

Trump allies. Steve Bannon appeared to have a bit of a psychotic breakdown on an episode of his show this week when he declared officially that the Deep State is won. Right? All these years poor Bannon won. Donald Trump's closest allies been railing against the Deep state, and now he thinks the Deep State won. And the reason he offers as to why the Deep State clearly has won is because the DOJ is allegedly not investigating any of the conspiracy theories that right wing whackadoo like Steve Bannon have been pushing for years. I'm gonna read you what Steve Bannon said. It's a lot, but it's so crazy. You gotta hear every bit of it. Here's what he said. We're not doing anything over at Justice Department. I don't see investigations. I don't see indictments. And I'm telling you, I'm hearing, and I want to give a warning, if you guys around Hgsi, if there's indictments or investigations going on and there's no indictments and there's no release of the Epstein files and there's no investigation of Brennan and the 51 and you're not spending your time on that, but somehow gets diverted over this, it is going to be a firestorm from the MAGA base.

I think people are fed up with it. I think Tom Fitten gives a lot of the frustration that in the first a hundred days we've seen nothing outta that crowd. Zero. With all the hard work that went in to get him Trump there, you know, we've seen nothing. And now they're talking about Jack some investigation to the guys around Hegseth. And I'm not saying there shouldn't be something over there. Maybe it is, but that's a Pete Seth call, right? And it shouldn't be DOJ or anybody like that jumping in there because you haven't done your primary job, which is to take down the deep state people. We are burning daylight. These people are playing smash mouth, they're playing hard ball. And the deep state is winning right now. Am I wrong to say that Deep with everything President Trump's doing in the reorientation, he is one man. He's got everything on his shoulders. He needs some support, he needs some help, he needs some assistance. It's incumbent upon us to do it, but people gotta get in there and put their shoulders to the wheel.

God felt like I was gonna have a stroke reading that folks, um, really like, it's kind of hard to see at the moment. Um, holy hell, that's crazy. Like those are the kinds of things where if you were on a psychiatrist couch or you were talking to mental health professionals at a hospital and you said these things to them, you would be put in a nice little jacket that allows you to give yourself a big old hug all day and you would be put in a room that has padding all over it. Like that's where you would end up if you said these things, these exact things word for word to mental health professionals at, at a hospital. You, you wouldn't be walking outta there that day. I can guarantee you that you'd at the very least be put

In there for a 72 hour psychiatric hold. Bannon doesn't seem to understand Trump's people have been in DC even through the Biden administration, they still held some of their jobs, uh, for years if a deep state existed, they are part of it. They're not the ones that are gonna clean it, they're part of it. But let's be real here. This so-called Deep State, the way these idiots see it does not in fact exist. There is not some big cabal out there calling the shots from a dark smoke filled room. They make decisions and they make these decisions very openly and publicly. We're not gonna investigate this. We are gonna investigate that. Yeah, this one's gonna make us look bad, so we're not gonna do it with regard to the Epstein files.
