Bannon Says He’s Advising Trump to DEPORT Elon Musk Immediately

The leopards are so hungry for faces that they are now eating their own. I condone this behavior.

An old-timey duel to the death would be the logical solution to this problem

Sword or pistol?
Why are those trannies shooting at each other?
- Walter Sobchek voice Dude, trannies is not the preferred nomenclature. Transsexuals, please.

A split between the regular fascists and neo-reactionaries could provide an opportunity to overthrow the Trump regime.

Not sure which is which though. There are some suggestions that the Plutocrats like Musk, Thiel and others basically want feudal thiefdoms where they can use workers and people and do whatever they please. Bannon afaik is a statist. Trump doesn't really believe in anything, and wouldn't care if he's President, Chairman or Emperor.
- Trump just wants to play golf on taxpayer's money
- Indeed. We should not align with either side and instead take advantage of the regular chaos. Much harder to crush discent when there is infighting in the ruling class.
  If the Trump administration spends a lot of resources trying to suppress the billionaires, that would lead to fewer resources available to suppress the general population.
  On the other hand, if the billionaires coup the White House, they would show the US government to be weak to a coup/revolution while simultaneously losing the support of the MAGA crowd. To amplify the latter, we should make sure to spread on social media how JD Vance was chosen by Musk and other billionaires so as to undermine JD Vance's support among the Republican base should the billionaires replace Trump with him.
They’ve been planning this shit since Goldwater, they’ve got contingency plans, that’s how we got here. They’re prepared to lose, that’s why they stacked the decks with heritage foundation plants from the top to the bottom of the system, we’ve already lost and if Elon and Donald get the fuck out of their way then they’ve got it made. I hate to say it, but keeping these idiots where they are is our best bet at pulling through this without having to start a war.
- Well, we need to purge every person associated with the Heritage Foundation after the revolution.

Deport Elon to El Salvador. Then let DOGE defund the prison program accidentally, because they don't understand why the El Salvadorian prison system is subsidized by the US.

All 3 pillars of MAGA are pointing the finger at each other and it's hilarious

<3spiderman-pointing.jpg>
- Would this technically be an American Standoff since Trump hates Mexico?
remind me: it's the Fascist, Corporatist and what's the third one?
ps: neopentecostalist?
- It's the MAGA-fascists, the technofascists, and the Christofascists, as far as I can tell
- monarchist (trump-loyals who don't actually give a fuck about immigrants or anything, they just want a godking)
  all together:
  fascists - authentic nazis like bannon
  corporatists - in it for the money like musk
  monarchists - want sole rule by a strongman, hate democracy, like trump himself and his loyalists
- Techbros, thieves and the loonies I think
- I was thinking more along the "traditional" conservatives, anti-regulation tech CEOs, and Trump himself. It was always an unsustainable balance but I did not expect it to unravel 6 days after Elon left the WH
- Incompetence if where talking about the Adam something video
- What's the third way?
  The Max Power Way.
anyone have three arrows they could spare?
- Hell, for these three does anyone have a broken arrow they can spare?

The one time I would not be in favor of due process would be if Trump sent him to El Salvador. A side effect could be that Musk's lawyers might even be able to fix due process for everyone. If not, he rots in a foreign prison. I see no downside.

Precedent would be a pretty big downside
- We already have the precedent (see Andry José Hernández Romero, for example). Someone with power might be able to reverse it.

Season 6 is getting crazy.

Usually when things fly off the rails cuz the writers already did everything they wanted but now have to keep the story going in the name of profit

be right back, need to stock up popcorns.

I'm fucking dying laughing at this shitshow from another country.

YOU COULDN'T FUCKING WRITE THIS SHIT 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

You could write that in a tv show and people would say it's funny but too far fetched. Look at american movies and tv shows. The preside t is a smart, grey haired dude who has everything under control. I wonder if there will ever be a movie with an obese president who can't read and shits his pants.
- It could be a 2 minute SNL skit. But you're not getting a whole show out of this.
- Well, there was that time a fat meth addict betrayed one of the billionaires/rivals that made him Fuhrer.
  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/part-one-alfred-hugenberg-the-elon-musk-of-weimar-germany/id1373812661?i=1000702671438
They did. So we ignore the circus while they rob the treasury.
- They’re skimping on the bread and are heavy on the circus.
- They already did that, though.

I have never agreed with Bannon in my life but I have to say he makes some good points here. Musk has been involved in a lot of lies, stock manipulations, insider trading, and clearly some criminal negligence at tesla. And he comes from a well known criminal family. Even Musk himself said this about his dad Eroll Musk,

"You have no idea about how bad. Almost every crime you can possibly think of, he has done," Elon said. "Almost every evil thing you could possibly think of, he has done … It's so terrible, you can't believe it."

So Elon is flat out admitting that his businesses sprang from criminal enterprise? When would he say he went legit and is he still connected to this worst criminals you can think of? Needs investigating. They should civil asset forfeiture his stuff while they look into it- thats what they would do to any of us.

Like father, like son.

Elon should just flee the country and then divulge how he and Donald fucked the election.

They didn't have to 'fuck' any election.
Consumer culture fucked the working class by conditioning them to spend money in order to be happy. Now that they can't spend at the levels of their parents because of the growing disparity in wealth, they're apathetic and turn to demagogues.
Neo-liberals did their part by making sure any candidates that represent the working class are shuffled into political janitor closets.
As always, blame the people who voted for Hillary in the 2016 primary for why we now have 2 trump presidencies.
We don't want to solve these problems.
- This is a good point. I think this isn't talked about enough.
Mans a Canadian citizen, he could just go to Toronto and just spill all to the press and CSIS.
- Hey, hey, hey. We sure as fuck don't want him back, he's your problem now.
- Even India assassinated Nijjar without any repercussions in Canada. America sure as fuck can get Musk to hang himself Epstein style.

Imagine spending $250m dollars to get deported. It would be awesome if he was sent back to South Africa.

That's a funny way to spell El Salvador.
- The rules don't apply to the ultra rich. Even the horrifying rules.
  Unfortunately.
TBF, proportionally speaking, it's like me spending $20. I would not expect this amount to make a difference if it were me.
250M is nothing to this prick.
- It is very expensive for their pride.
  Those billionaires don't actually have the money ready in cash, just a tiny part of that is liquid, everything is in stocks. They are getting paid in stocks from their company. Why? Because until you're selling the stocks, for the government you don't have a revenue to tax. Suppose this year you get a salary of $100 billion in stocks. If you convert in cash only $100k, then the tax owed that year is minuscule. Those assholes have teams dedicated to minimize the amount of taxes owed. It is why he didn't use his money to buy xitter but used his stock and "genius CEO" fame as a collateral to persuade banks and other arab investors to lend the money for him (and hold the bag if it sank)
  So in order to donate that quarter of a billion he had to liquidate stocks and pay taxes on that. Ouch, so so much painful for a billionaire. For them paying taxes is like being robbed. So, it's more like paying $20k for you
What about he gets half his money back and goes exactly half the way to South Africa?
He's Canadian through his mother.
We'd just get stuck with him.
- Unless he gets sent to CECOT
- He already said Canada isn't a real country. They have to send him in a real country. They can't deport him in Canada and make Canada the 51st State and start over again.
- Where’s that petition to revoke his citizenship at, anyway? Would be a nice elbow to the head.
Imagine spending $250m dollars to get deported.
As others have said: $43 billion. Elon bought Twitter.
- Yeah, but he was forced to complete that transaction after he changed his mind.
Elon is a brilliant businessman. When he was only 12, he started his first business as a bridge troll. Now at…whatever he is, he’s being kicked out of a country he literally bought.
South Africa doesn’t want him.

Jesus, even Bannon managed to sober up long enough to have a good thought.

EDIT: No idea why the other poster deleted it, but it's too good to not put back up:

- I have to admit, I haven't smiled this much in months. It's been a wonderful day.
- That's awesome, I hadn't seen that yet. And so apropos!
- The glass is half full
Like when Ted Cruz said that Trump "lies practically every word that comes out of his mouth".
Ted Cruz actually nailed down Trump's character better than any other politician.
- Tbf that's the joke about how to know when a politician is lying.
The glass is half empty
- Whether that's good or bad depends on what's in the glass.

This is, without a doubt, the best idea Steve Bannon has ever had.

Let's not give that fucking cunt any credit. He's still only motivated by his own malevolent self-interest.
- That doesnt mean he can't do something funny by accident.
That's true but we know he's lying and even though they say Musk is totally gone, Don't believe it so quickly. He's too rich, too powerful, and they want his money too much.
We know that they want to distance themselves from him in the newspapers, but we don't know anything else.

Bannon seems like a bitter, jealous guy who would lash out in anger.

He’s one of those old guys that’s still just a little boy on the inside.

LIQUIDATE MUSK

I think you mean liquify.
They're easily mixed up - liquidate means to convert assets into a form that's easily transferrable, like cash on hand. Liquify means to convert Musk into liquid.
- You said liquidate twice
- Why not both?
NOT FINANCIALLY

There isn't enough popcorn for this.

Didn’t expect to see Kofi and Xavier in the wild

Hopefully all those people who voted for Trump (because he's a 'leader') and Musk ('because he's a great business man') are starting to realize they cast their vote for a couple of petulant children who have acquired great wealth because their daddies gave them a few hundred million in starting money.

I too, believe in fairy tales.
- I know, I know. Speaking reason and logic again. I'll stop ;-)
For many of then, if they were capable of looking at the world and drawing good conclusions, they wouldn't be conservative to begin with.
I wouldn't say it's hopeless, but something as basic as "facts" and "evidence" isn't going to be enough to reach someone who's a fragile, terrified, ego wrapped in a thick blanket of emotions and lies.
The idiots that vote for this think it’s normal behavior because they act the same way.
I, too, believed in Santa Claus for far too long.

Uh oh, the Epstein shit is scaring people. I wonder who else is on those lists?

Jeffrey Epstein Reportedly Invested $40 Million in a Company Co-Founded by Peter Thiel

Oh, how I would love to see Peter Thiel sent to prison.

Back to South Africa please. Canada does not want him.

Mars will do, thanks.
- Why ruin a potential colony?
  Throw that fucker on the sun.
Back to hell please.
We don't want him on this plane of existence.
El Salvador. He's an illegal.

On one hand, this would be hilarious. On the other hand, the affirmation Trump would get out of exercising that kind of power over the richest man in history would be terrifying.

Am opportunity for Elon to use his money to do something really really really funny
Best outcome is Musk hires a fleet of lawyers who convince the supremes to limit presidential power.
I dunno. For once it would show that money won't shield you from the law.
- Did you forget about trump that fast? It's just about who you pay.

One good thing to come out of this is if trump cancels Musk's new billions in government contracts that were the main reason Musk bought trump in the first place. 🤞

I'd counter that decimating all the departments actively investigating his interests was his primary motivation and the contracts were just a little extra self dealing on top..
Though it would be great fun to watch him exit now going full self righteous on the way out, only to have his companies bankrupted once the new gov contracts are cancelled, because he'd destroyed all their other income sources during his crusade to save himself.
- Yes, good point. He was in it for both of those things and probably a bunch of other less obvious stuff. I'd like to see the contracts cancelled and the investigations re-opened.
I think there has been a shift in power. A couple months ago Trump was 100% Musk's bitch. Fuck, his kid told Trump to shut up and that he "wasn't the president". Musk definitely had something on Trump. The Epstein files would definitely fit the bill.
I'm having a hard time believing anybody would be dumb enough to not have a backup, but this is Musk. He's out of his fucking gourd half the time.
- Yes, he was completely submissive to Musk and his little X brat! I kind of marveled at how he sat there and took shit from them in that office and I knew Musk owned him. I don't really think the Epstein thing is that important. Everyone already knows about it, and his followers won't believe it or won't care. If a crime, I think it would have to be something bigger. Like on the level of the conspiracy theory that Musk was able to rig the election in some states (though I'm not sure even that would be prosecuted). But then Musk would also be incriminated.
  I think it's more likely that there was a huge sum of money trump was going to get paid, that Musk had control of until the investigations into Musk and his companies got shut down and all the billions in government contracts to his companies were signed and delivered, then once trump finally got paid for the services rendered, he doesn't need Musk anymore, so he's out.
  The thing that was never considered by a lot of people who helped get trump in power for their own gain, both the first time and this time, is that once he's in there he has the full power of the government to go after you if you don't toe the line. He can ruin them financially and even put them in prison now. They forgot, trump never honors a deal. He'll screw you over the minute you no longer have something he needs or can no longer threaten him.

I was very confused by that, because in British English, "dew" sounds like "jew", and it took me a moment to realise that it sounds like "do" in American English.
- I didn't know that! Definitely did not mean it as "jew it"!! This was just the first version of the meme I found, I always thought of it as "do it."

Remember when Steve was in jail?

Those were the days

LMAO. This keeps getting better.

Elon as the fall guy is hilarious. I guess that's the silver lining to these powerful people getting close to the orphan grinding machine.

Here's why this isn't a good idea even if musk is terrible: it means trump can do it to everyone else

Where the fuck have you been for 5 months?
- Who said I wasn't against what Trump is doing, are you dumb?
Has anyone tried report Trump to ICE? I mean he hasn't produced a birth certificate....
- And just look at all those anchor babies.
- Musk originally came to the US on a student visa, too.
Bannon is a clever bastard, set the precedent with someone unpopular at the moment
- Realistically Bannon's a headline-happy old drunk with very little influence
  But I can dream a little tonight
It really doesn't? All the reasons he's already doing it to everyone else are why he is able to do it to everyone else. What meaningful change in direction are you even trying to point to here, if you already know that Trump is deporting people?
- The reason I wrote it is because many people hate Elon, and are like "yeah deport him" that would be encouraging trumps deportation regime and give further validation when people are trying to push back

He's absolutely going to try before this is all said and done. This is like two toddlers having a throwdown at daycare.

He has a Canadian citizenship. Please don’t send him here. We don’t want him either.

He has American citizenship too but I guess now everyone is ok with deporting American citizens as long as it's someone unlikable.
Canadian here, need to recommend that shit asap.

🤞 Please send him to CECOT 🤞

Look, fuck them both but cecot should be dismantled.

Breaking news.

Hard Core Nazi Steve Bannon calls for narcistic fascist Elon Musk to be deported immediately.

I'm awaiting Bannon to be deemed a criminal and also deported.

Seize his illegally aquired assets first!

Yes😂 finally, now off he goes to El Salvador.

Dew it.

But Elon Musk is an ILLEGAL Immigrant. WHY would they Deport someone like THAT?

He's been an American citizen for 23 years. Why the fuck does everyone suddenly think deportation is the answer to every crime. Just prosecute him.

Is Musk learning he is this administration's Trotsky?

I can’t wait until they airbrush him out of pictures.
Thats an insult to Trotsky, sure he was the butch of the Red Army and led what was effectively a campaign of abject slaughter. But he was actually intelligent, a decent commander, knew how to write, and actually looked pretty decent unlike Musk who is none of those things. Seriously comparing Musk to Trotsky is like comparing Trump to Theodore Roosevelt.

This would be fucking AMAZING. Talk about leopards eating fucking faces! ❤️

Not sure if I want to be happy about this or not. I guess it depends on what country he would go to. He will probably go to another country where he can abuse the system to pay fewer taxes than the rest of us.

He's lying and everyone knows it. There's no chance of them deporting Musk. They want to get a lot of money from a lot of billionaires and if they go in attack mode on those large-scale donors, no one is going to throw money at them anymore.
- They also want billionaires to know that is a bad idea to turn against them.
I guess it depends on what country he would go to.
El Salvador surely.
Russia? 🙊

Just didn't deport him to Canada, El Salvador would be fine. Or you know launch the middle of the Atlantic would be ok.

Canada isn't a real country anyway and if they make it the 51st State they will have to deport him again.
- Well if it becomes the 51st state I'll not need to worry about it as I would have died trying to defend it, even with its shitty problems.
  But point taken send him south
- good point, south africa has to take the hit on this one.

Steve who?

You might know him better as the Sentient Pile of Gin-Soaked Rags.
- Oh that guy 💡
These guys do give info on strategy, they’re not exactly secret about it. Bannon used the term “muzzle velocity” to describe the inundation of the press with so many terrible things, We The People would not know where to start or how to organize. They’d instead be scattered without a single issue to galvanize large numbers. Promoting numbness instead of protest. “Muzzle velocity”.
You don’t listen to Bannon, or any of the rest, because you believe them. You listen because it tells you about the admin and their intentions.
And the Jerry Springer vibes.
The guy that just slid into the ring with the steel chair

White genocide confirmed??!

Jesus H Christ, I can't keep up with this shit. I ran out of popcorn a few hours ago.

I'm all for it. Can we kick all of the right wing media off twiter again.

Like it matters where he lives. He can stir up shit from anywhere on the globe.

Sending him back to south Africa after all those white genocide claims would be a hell of a thing lmao
Not El Salvador

Shit, I fucking called it!!! Although I said that he’d be shipped to El Salvador not Africa.

I hate this racist/fascist decrepit old fuck.

If they are smart they will do it.

If Elon was smart he would leave the country.

If Elon were smart, he would've just shut the fuck up and quietly enjoyed his hundreds of billions of dollars instead of jumping headfirst into culture war to prove what a funny edgelord he is.
