Steve Bannon is sometimes a laff riot.

Trying to gin up support for the corrupt adulterer Ken Paxton, whose impeachment trial begins today in Texas, Bannon imagines a "Bush junta" trying to take Paxton down.

Bannon doesn't say if it's Dubya or H. Dubya he's talking about. Last I heard Dubya was painting dog portraits or something.

The real "civil war" is completely centered on the minority Republican Party. Transcript via Media Matters.

STEVE BANNON (HOST): Over 100 years ago, I think it was in 1917, a populist governor of Texas was impeached. This is the first time since then. Remember this impeachment, as we said on the Saturday special, is not really about Ken Paxton. This is a, once again in our 30 front war, this is a massive front. And that is because the ascendency of the Trump movement, the populist movement, in Texas versus the old Bush junta…

The deplorables, MAGA, all of it tied together down in Texas and this is why the Bush junta has teamed with Democrats. This is the exact same thing that's going around the country. In Texas it's the impeachment trial of Ken Paxton. Now, we are calling on all MAGA to light the phones up of those senators and tell them let's wrap this thing up and also the Lieutenant Governor, Patrick, Dan Patrick. Just go ahead and make sure you get to, that the Lieutenant Governor today. Make sure you get to the senators today and say we want this thing wrapped up quickly, these charges are ridiculous, this is political.

Then Bannon turns his attention to Georgia. Where, again, the Bush junta is working with "radical Democrats."

BANNON: But what you're seeing here, in a small scale, is exactly what's going on in Georgia. In Georgia you have, once again, radical Democrats working with Kemp, who's a part of the Bush junta, right, he's the Georgia branch of that. That's the donor class, the establishment, the uniparty working with radical Democrats, working with Fani Willis.

Speaking as a radical Democrat, Steve, I'm sure we're the only people who remember that the Bush junta lied our country into an actual war. Your decades-long obsession with using war lingo to rally the dupes continues.
