Steve Bannon will be Inspector General for all agencies?

Hysteria isn’t helpful.

Suggestions for what to do that will make any difference at all?

You do not do anyone favors by calling him a Lenninist, which I truly doubt he is.

He is a totalitarian, more than willing to rule through a tool like Trump…

“It wasn’t my intention to do the thing I tried to do” is a thing you say when you think everyone else is as stupid as you are.

it’s not their approach, it’s not their intention.

Of course not. They meant to tell them they were all going to get raises and a free stay at Trump Towers. It was a silly mistake.

Now move on.

“Evil or stupid”, the perennial question. IMHO, this crew is working the "good cop/ bad cop’ angle pretty well.
Trump and Bannon: stupid and evil, two side of a Mobius strip.

Run for office, volunteer, organize protests, GOTV, local and state level…

I ran a campaign pro bono a few years back at the Town Level in a Republican enclave. You have no idea how dirty this game is.

Edit: Did I mention that they arrested my guy 1 week before the vote on bogus charges? Dragged him away in his underwear, without a warrant. In cooperation with the County DA…

He was all set to win…

“With each new administration, I’m sure there’s a learning curve…"

With some its a little steeper than others, but with this crew it may not be scalable.

Chaffetz: It’s not their approach, it’s not their intention.”

POTUS Bannon: Yes it is. I want them gone. We are looking at hurting their families. I want Sessions to help me.
