Former Donald Trump adviser and MAGA evangelist Steve Bannon has said being placed in handcuffs and indicted on Thursday on money laundering charges was a “powerful spiritual experience” for him, calling it “one of the best days” of his life.
“Yesterday was one of the best days of my life,” Bannon said Friday on Charlie Kirk’s podcast. “It was a very powerful, spiritual day for me. A lot of things came into high clarity,” he said. “I was totally in the zone, as you say in sports, the entire time,” he declared.
“They’re not gonna shut me up,” he insisted.
Bannon’s declaration comes a day after he was indicted in New York over the infamous ‘We Build A Wall’ scam that feds say defrauded MAGA-loving donors.
Minutes before being arraigned, Bannon launched into a tirade, yelling as police officers escorted him down a hallway lined with journalists. “They will never shut me up. They will have to kill me first!” he exclaimed before declaring: “I have not yet begun to fight!”
Meanwhile, Bannon’s lawyer David Schoen claimed Friday evening that a Bannon legal appeal after sentencing would be “bulletproof.”
