Steve Bannon Slams Mike Pence For Criticizing Fbi Payback Calls

Trump ally and adviser Steve Bannon blasted former Vice President Mike Pence on Wednesday for berating GOP politicians who called for the FBI to be scrapped, in another example of the widening divide between Trumpworld and Republican lawmakers who refuse to join in his rhetoric. “Pence, you’re a disgusting coward. Just the sight of you makes me sick,” Bannon said during his “War Room” show on the right-wing Real America’s Voice network. In a lengthy rant criticizing Pence’s productivity in the Trump administration, Bannon blasted the former vice president with a series of insults, including calling him a “soulless, stupid simpleton.” —Ron Filipkowski 🇺🇦 (@RonFilipkowski) August 17, 2022 At an event in New Hampshire earlier in the day, Pence said, “These attacks on the FBI must stop. Calls for FBI paybacks are just as wrong as calls for police paybacks.” While he didn’t name any Republicans by name, some of Trump’s staunchest supporters on the Hill — including Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, Rep. Paul Gosar of Arizona and Rep. Lauren Boebert of Colorado — have supported the payout, to investigate and to “destroy” the FBI. Their calls were prompted by the bureau’s raid last Monday at former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate. Shortly after the investigation, the FBI warned of an increased number of threats to its agents and headquarters. Pence also condemned the threats against the FBI and said the Republican party “is the party of law and order.” In response, Bannon argued that the FBI raid represented the actions of a “police state,” which he said justified why some Republicans were calling for it to be dismantled. “There is no comparison to any police defunding,” he argued. “We have never asked for defunding the police. We are asking for defunding the police state.” While Bannon has a history of making controversial statements and wild claims without foundation, his latest comments about Pence are another example of a high-profile Trump loyalist attacking even former close allies whose positions differ from Trump’s. Bannon, too, has clashed with Trump in the past. He was one of the most influential people in the Trump White House until he was fired in August 2017. However, in 2020, Trump pardoned Bannon, who was facing money laundering and mail fraud conspiracy charges. The two have since continued to make positive comments about each other. In July, Bannon was found guilty of two counts of contempt of Congress after repeatedly refusing to comply with a House Select Committee investigating the Capitol attack. He is due to be sentenced in October but has vowed to appeal the verdict.
