Steve Bannon, host of the popular podcast, “War Room,” who once served as former President Donald Trump’s campaign manager, discussed on an episode of his program on Saturday the recent CNN interview with former FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe, in which he said that members of the intelligence community are worried they will be tossed in the slammer if Trump wins another term in the White House.
According to a report from RealClearPolitics, Bannon was sentenced to a total of four months in prison, a term that is set to begin on July 1, for contempt of Congress after he refused to make an appearance in front of the January 6th committee, which was heavily loaded toward the left end on the political spectrum.
“McCabe, you were the deputy at the American Gestapo and you are going to suffer the consequences,” Bannon went on to say during “War Room.”
“Accountability Day starts at noon on January 20, 2025.”

“These are smart people, they know the law. Hell, he was the deputy [director] of the FBI, they know the laws they broke. And here’s the thing McCabe, we’re going to have access to everything,” Bannon continued during the program. “Oh, these are ‘torturous conversations?’ Well, if you didn’t do anything wrong, then they wouldn’t be torturous conversations.”
“The crimes of the FBI are manifest, the incompetence of the FBI is manifest… McCabe, the Earth ain’t big enough for you to hide from us,” Bannon warned the disgraced former deputy director of the FBI.

Here’s a transcript of some of the McCabe interview:
ANDREW MCCABE: It is terrifying, it’s frightening. I have a lot of conversations with former colleagues, people who are or were in the intelligence and law enforcement community, and they have worked in the Obama administration, other places. People are really trying to assess what life is going to be like if Donald Trump wins a second term? On a very personal level, these are torturous discussions with their family members about whether or not they will have to leave the country to avoid being unconstitutionally and illegally detained. People are actually worried about being thrown in jail or grabbed in some sort of extrajudicial detention. As crazy as this sounds in the United States of America, I think people should really consider that these are possibilities. Listen to what the man says; he typically does what he says, as crazy as it seems. That’s really all the indicators you need.
CNN HOST: Do you personally worry about it?
MCCABE: Yeah, absolutely. I’m not gonna hide it. It is something that anyone who has been in his crosshairs, on his perceived enemies list, is considering. People have different ways of thinking about how they’re gonna react to it and what they’ll do in the moment, but those are personal decisions. It is a very real concern for a lot of people.

In response to these comments from McCabe, not only did Bannon say the right would be coming after him, but also after Comey, Attorney General Merrick Garland, and even potentially Eric Holder, going on to say the American people would hold all of these individuals accountable for the crimes they have allegedly committed against this country.
