Former White House chief strategist and executive chair of Breitbart News Stephen Bannon once again had his Twitter account suspended. Bannon went live on his War Room podcast Twitter account, where he allegedly called for the nation’s leading infectious diseases expert Anthony Fauci’s head “on pikes.”
The Hill verified the reason for the suspension of Bannon’s account, which was for violating their policy on glorifying violence.
“Second term kicks off with firing Wray, firing Fauci, no, I actually want to go a step farther, but the president is a kind-hearted man and a good man,” Bannon said.
“I’d actually like to go back to the old times of Tudor England. I’d put their heads on pikes, right, I’d put them at the two corners of the White House as a warning to federal bureaucrats, you either get with the program, or you’re gone.”
Furthermore, The Hill also confirmed that YouTube took down the video for violating their policy, and Bannon’s channel also received a strike, resulting in restrictions from uploading videos for at least a week.
