Bannon Calls for Beheading of Dr. Fauci & FBI Director Wray

HeadlineNov 06, 2020

Twitter has permanently banned President Trump’s former campaign manager Steve Bannon, who was recently indicted, from the platform after he called for the beheading of the nation’s top infectious disease expert, Dr. Anthony Fauci, and FBI Director Christopher Wray. He made the comment on his podcast, “War Room: Pandemic.”

Steve Bannon: “I’d actually like to go back to the old times of Tudor England. I’d put the heads on pikes. Right? I’d put them at the two corners of the White House, as a warning to federal bureaucrats: You either get with the program, or you’re gone.”
