STEVE BANNON (HOST): You’ve got Trudeau up there talking about the great reset. In Bannon-land, the great reset is an opportunity for the elite cabal to “depopulate” the earth to 500 million, then genetically engineer humankind using “the convergence of artificial intelligence, advances in chip design and bioengineering.” He explains that the Democrats are attempting to “steal this election” because “if they can thwart the will of the people in this country,” they’ll be able to achieve the great reset by taking down populist movements in other countries as well. The Great Reset is also the title of a book written by Klaus Schwab, the founder and executive director of the World Economic Forum. The language may be vague and slightly creepy, but the initiative has no governance or enforcement mechanism - its scope doesn’t extend beyond discourse.

Instead, he serves them lies and conspiracy theories about voter fraud and other vague, random Breitbart-style brain worms. But though he considers himself a leader and a patriot, Bannon has failed his audience by deliberately squandering the opportunity to tell them the truth about urgent matters related to the election and the coronavirus pandemic. On the show, Bannon frequently brags about the size and diversity of his audience (the show is at the time of publication ranked 55th in Apple Podcast’s rankings). While its purported focus is the pandemic, at this point the show has devolved into a pro-beheading cesspool of election-related conspiracy theories.

According to Media Matters for America, Giuliani placed responsibility for Wednesday’s deadly Capitol riot on “the people that are imposing the suppression,” or, rather, leaders who don’t support Trump’s baseless claims that he lost the 2020 election due to fraud.
