Bannon's Back: MAGA's Midnight Ride to Project 2025


Yo, the streets are talkin' and the vibes are electric. Steve Bannon's out the joint (Danbury, anyone?) and MAGA's got a new energy pumping through its veins. The man behind Trump's rise, the strategist who knows how to play the game, is back to shake things up just as the 2024 election is heating up.


Bannon's War Room podcast, the digital hub for the movement, is buzzing like a hive of pissed-off bees ready to sting the establishment. Co-host Natalie Winters, a voice that could make angels tremble, declared on Monday's episode: “Stephen K. Bannon will have his midnight ride back to the War Room tonight.”





This isn't some sweet, harmless message. Winters is talkin' 'bout retribution. A firestorm of payback for the folks who dared to lock up Bannon for contempt of Congress. Bannon, who served four months for refusing to testify before the House January 6 committee, is a man who embodies the MAGA spirit – unapologetic, fearless, and ready to fight for the soul of America.


“He won't be saying, ‘the British are coming,’” Winters continued, her voice drippin' with determination. “He'll be saying, 'retribution is coming.' And rightfully so. And it's long overdue.”



This is Bannon, the master of the political game, back in the ring. He’s not just comin' back to his podcast, he’s back to take on the Democrats and their hand-picked champion, Kamala Harris. He’s got a fire in his belly, and MAGA’s got a target on its back – an October surprise aimed right at Harris's campaign.


And let me tell you, Bannon's not holdin' back. He's pullin' no punches. He's going straight for the jugular.



While Bannon's been servin' time, he hasn't been sittin' idle. Word on the street is that he's been schooling his fellow inmates on American civics, even using "Godfather I and Godfather II" as teaching tools. That's Bannon for you, findin' common ground, connectin' with people wherever they're at.


But Bannon's not just about prison reform. He’s got a clear vision for the future of America, and he’s already started to lay out the strategy for a Trump-led comeback in 2025.



Project 2025, the brainchild of Bannon and a core group of MAGA loyalists, is a blueprint for transforming America into a nation that puts its own people first, a nation that is free from the chains of globalism and the influence of leftist ideology.


The heart of Project 2025 lies in the belief that the American people are tired of being treated like pawns by the elite, the politicians and bureaucrats who are more interested in enriching themselves than serving the needs of their constituents.



The project's strategy is focused on three key pillars:


Economic Independence: Project 2025 advocates for a return to an America that manufactures its own goods, that is self-sufficient and does not rely on global supply chains that are vulnerable to manipulation and exploitation.


Cultural Conservatism: The project calls for a return to traditional values and a rejection of what it perceives as the destructive influence of liberal social movements, particularly those focused on issues like race, gender, and sexual orientation.


National Security First: Project 2025 emphasizes a tough stance on national security, with a focus on building a strong military and standing up to adversaries like China and Russia.




While Bannon's vision may seem extreme to some, it resonates deeply with a growing segment of the American population who feel that their voices and their concerns have been marginalized.


Bannon's latest political prediction: an “October surprise” will knock the wind out of Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign. Bannon’s talkin’ straight to the streets, speakin’ in a language that’s raw and real.


He’s not just talkin’ ‘bout the “Queen of Mass Incarcerations.” He’s also callin’ out Harris's failure to address the needs of Black and Hispanic men caught up in the criminal justice system. He’s talkin’ about how Harris has failed to enforce Trump's First Step Act, the bipartisan reform bill that aimed to help nonviolent drug offenders.



“Black and Hispanic men detest the 'Queen of Mass Incarcerations,' Kamala Harris, and will not vote for her because she refuses to mass deport illegal alien criminals while having her BOP deliberately fail to enforce President Trump's First Step Act, thus further destroying Black and Hispanic families,” Bannon declared.


He’s tapin’ into the frustration and anger that many Black and Hispanic Americans feel about the criminal justice system, and the potential for Harris to be perceived as part of the establishment that perpetuates the problem.



Bannon's plan is simple – make the issues that matter to Black and Hispanic voters front and center. He’s gonna paint Harris as part of the system that's failing them, and he’s gonna offer Trump as the outsider who's gonna fight for them.


And that's where those pro-Trump songs come in. These anthems of American patriotism and grit are part of the soundtrack of the MAGA movement.


Think "God Bless the USA" by Lee Greenwood, a song that embodies the values of faith, family, and freedom. Think "Born in the USA" by Bruce Springsteen, a song that celebrates the working class and the American spirit. Think "American Pie" by Don McLean, a song that reflects on the changing landscape of America. And then there are the classics, "This Land is Your Land" by Woody Guthrie, a song that speaks to the shared heritage of America, and “America the Beautiful” by Katharine Lee Bates, a song that inspires awe and pride in the beauty and strength of the nation.



Bannon's back, and his return is a call to action. His message, his strategy, his vision – it’s all about pushing back against the leftist agenda that’s taking over America.


He’s got a plan, a blueprint for the future.


And he’s ready to ride into the sunset with Trump, carrying the MAGA torch forward.


The streets are talkin', the vibes are electric. This ain't just another election; it's a fight for America's soul.


Get ready, fam. It’s about to get real.

What is part #2 of the Yung Thugg Release?


 


Taken from XXL:

Young Thug's release from jail has put a positive end to the longest-running criminal trial in Georgia history. As the Atlanta rapper is welcomed home by family and friends, one of those people could very well be Gunna, who was accused of snitching on Thug in the YSL RICO case. He could very well deserve an apology from everyone following what happened in court yesterday.


During Young Thug's sentencing on Thursday (Oct. 31), a surprising moment occured in the courtroom when Thug's counsel specifically requested for his client to continue working with Gunna upon release from jail. As part of Thug's probation, for which he must serve 15 years, he cannot be in contact with known gang members, including those named in the YSL indictment. The judge granted two exceptions for YSL indictees: Gunna, who Thug is contractually obligated to work with through Young Stoner Life Records, and Quantavious Grier, a.k.a Unfoonk, who is Thug's brother.



Brian Steel, Thug's attorney, called Gunna "a phenomenal artist" in court, and noted that Thug and Gunna "frequently perform music together." Kind words like that don't seem to indicate there are a break in friendly relations between the two rappers. Now the argument can be made that a lawyer will say anything to help their client get their freedom, but this situation looks more like Thugger and Gunna are in good standing with one another. However, the internet didn't necessarily think so over the last two years.



The rule of internet court put the snitching label on Gunna and so did several rappers through songs and subliminals. But did Gunna really tell on Young Thug? Hip-hop doesn't take kindly to rappers who cooperate with authorities. According to Gunna, he didn't. The YSL signee was released from jail in December of 2022, after being incarcerated for seven months. He made an Alford plea to one count of racketeering and was sentenced to five years, with one year of time served and the remainder of his sentence being suspended. The rhymer was initially arrested on May 9, 2022, along with Young Thug and 26 other affiliates of the YSL collective as part of the large-scale RICO case in Georgia.


Upon his release, Gunna insisted he did not make any statements or cooperate.


"While I have agreed to always be truthful, I want to make it perfectly clear that I have NOT made any statements, have NOT been interviewed, have NOT cooperated, have NOT agreed to testify or be a witness for or against any party in the case and have absolutely NO intention of being involved in the trial process in any way," the statement read in part.


Steve Sadow, Gunna's attorney, also insisted his client "did not snitch to get out of jail" and wanted people to "please stop spreading lies." During the course of the trial, Thug has never mentioned Gunna or called him a snitch.


However, fans, critics and trolls continued to label Gunna a snitch, especially following a video taken without the rapper's knowledge showed him in court when he faced the judge to take his plea deal before being released. Gunna agreed with the statement, "YSL is a music label and a gang," provided by the judge. Rappers like Maino sounded off and said Gunna saying that hurt Thug's case.


Last December, Lil Baby said "F**k the rats" when his "Drip Too Hard" collab with Gunna was played during a performance. In January, fans thought 21 Savage took aim at Gunna on the song "Letter to My Brudda," which appeared to be dedicated to Young Thug. One of the lines of the song goes, "How you go from codefendant to a f**kin’ witness?"


Find a social media post about Gunna over the last two years, and chances are there will be snitching accusations or rat emojis in the comments. He's certainly aware of all the talk. In his cover story for XXL magazine's Spring 2024 issue, Gunna addressed what everyone seemed to be saying. "I definitely feel like everybody’s been misled," he said. Gunna also said the relationship between him and Thug was "the same," and noted, "It’s love, always. Our relationship is our relationship.”


Looks like Gunna was telling the truth. After video of the judge approving Thug's special conditions for probation began circulating on social media yesterday, fans seemed to change their tune. Seeing Thugger's lawyer praise Gunna and indicate Thug needed to work with him again caused thousands of comments on platforms like The Shade Room to rally behind Gunna. The consensus: hip-hop owes Gunna an apology.


"Yall owe Gunna an APOLOGY!! Up first, Lil Baby!" a user wrote in the comments section of The Shade Room post showing video of Brian Steel specifically asking for Thug to work with Gunna. "The whole hip hop industry owes Gunna an extraordinary apology," another posted. The sentiment was shared tenfold across Instagram. This may be the case of mind the business that pays you for all the people who called Gunna a rat.


It's been less than 24 hours since Young Thug has become a free man. While there may not be a traditional "First Day Out" track given the circumstances of what he can and cannot promote in and out of his music, releasing some kind of new song is likely his next step. With the judge's blessing, he and Gunna could appear on a track together in the future. More importantly, now that Thug's free, he can set the record straight about his best friend, and if hip-hop really owes Gunna an apology.
