Well, folks, Steve Bannon is out here making a complete and utter fool out of himself. Again. (Are you surprised?)
As we’re all well aware by now, the January 6th House Select Committee’s explosive public hearings are fully underway now and, in just two days so far, they’ve dropped more bombshells than we can even keep up with.
Ratings for the public, televised hearings are off the charts, as expected, and the whole ordeal has sent the former president and his inner circle and supporters into a full-blown, unhinged tizzy — and Lord knows it’s far from over.
The former White House chief strategist and staunch Trump loyalist made his panic clear as day today when he stopped and spoke with the media outside the courthouse as he prepared to head inside for his own hearing, assumably in relation to the Contempt of Congress charges he currently has lodged against him by the Department of Justice, in connection to his blatant refusal to comply with subpoenas that were issued to him by the January 6th House Select Committee for his sworn testimony and other evidence in their case.

Speaking with reporters, Bannon whined, cried, and raged, “MAGA is on the march! The J6 Committee is totally irrelevant. Completely irrelevant. Their ratings stink. They couldn’t even compete with us!” Bannon was seemingly referencing the ratings for his own podcast here.
But the whole ordeal gets even more hilarious still.
Bannon’s toddler-esque, petulant hissy fit was a bad enough look, to begin with. But in the background of the video that’s speaking like wildfire all over social media, there is a man behind Bannon holding up a big, bold “Failed Coup” sign, as the former Trump official rages at the reporters:
As a man walks behind him with a ‘Failed Coup’ sign, a defiant State Bannon heading into court says: “MAGA is on the march! The J6 Committee is totally irrelevant. Completely irrelevant. Their ratings stink. They couldn’t even compete with us!” (His podcast). pic.twitter.com/Cz9xWhDxkd

I wonder if he knows he’s a complete laughing stock, or if the delusions are still too strong for him to realize yet.
