'Have you lost your freaking mind?' Bannon rips Mike Johnson for crediting God for Biden

MAGA podcast host Steve Bannon lashed out at Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-LA) after he said God had ordained Joe Biden as president.

At a news conference on Wednesday, Johnson was asked if Biden's presidency was God's will.

"It must have been God's will," the Speaker replied.

Minutes later, Bannon said Johnson's comments would make "heads blow up."

"Yo, dude, he's an illegitimate president!" Bannon exclaimed. "Have you lost your freaking mind? This election was stolen."

"Joe Biden's not a legitimate president of the United States," he continued. "No to the Speaker. So no, God did not raise him up."

Bannon said he didn't want to hear any more "happy talk" from Johnson.

"The framers and the founders gave you the power of the purse. Shut it down," the podcast host, calling for a government shutdown.

"Guys like Johnson are gonna lead to mass conversions to Islam by young men," he added. "Wait for it. If that's what Christianity gives you, if that's what it gives you as far as being a warrior when you roll over to your enemies, disgusting."

Contrary to Bannon's claims, there was no evidence of widespread fraud in the 2020 presidential election.

A MAGA senator was walloped online after he parroted a head-spinning Trump defense of his dubious Iran deal.

Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) was asked by CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins on Wednesday about Trump's deal to end the war with Iran.

"Are you okay with Iran having missiles?" Collins asked.

Marshall responded, "I prefer that they not, but they have to defend themselves," echoing Trump, who hours earlier defended letting Iran keep its ballistic missiles because "other people have some."

Commentators online let Marshall have it for rehashing a line that doesn't make much sense and for shamelessly flipping his positions to be in lockstep with Trump.

"This guy will say whatever Trump says on any given day," Ron Filipkowski, the editor-in-chief of the MeidasTouch news network, said. "He has no core beliefs. His political philosophy is whatever position Trump takes today, which may be different from the position Trump had yesterday."

"Trump/flunkie Republican senator says Iran has to be able to defend itself," summarized journalist John Harwood.

"Couldn't we have just come to this conclusion before 13 Americans and thousands of Iranians died for nothing?" asked American Saga writer Zaid Jilani.

"So America's adversaries need to be able to defend themselves against America for America's sake?" wondered Max Meizlish, a senior research analyst at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies. "Got it. Nothing to see here. Nothing weird going on at all."

Spanish-language journalist León Krauze described the comments as "surreal." Meanwhile, Pradheep J. Shanker, a doctor and contributor for the National Review, simply wrote, "JFC" to express his frustration.

A former top MAGA White House aide warned that Trump is headed for "five-stage denialism" after his biggest flop yet.

Anthony Scaramucci, Trump's former White House communications director, made the prediction during an interview on The Daily Beast Podcast while talking about the recently announced Iran deal.

"You've heard of five-stage clingers? He's gonna go into five-stage denialism," Scaramucci said. "And he's gonna triple down on this. And he's gonna start saying things to people that are absolutely not true."

Scaramucci admitted that "the denialism of Trump" has been "the cornerstone of his success for his entire public life," but said that it's "now what's kicked in."

The deal, which reportedly includes a $300 billion fund for Iran, was an "abject failure," Scaramucci said. "In his quiet moments in his mind, he understands that this has been a disaster."

President Donald Trump got his chosen candidate in the U.S. Senate race in Georgia, where Rep. Mike Collins clinched the nomination last night — and he plans to go all in on supporting him.

In the same post where the president trashed incumbent Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff and came up with an obscene nickname for him, Trump vowed that he will be holding campaign rallies in the state to help Collins, saying, "I’ll be doing Big TRUMP Rallies for Mike in Georgia!"

This earned a wave of mockery from commenters on social media, as although Trump narrowly carried the state in 2024, he isn't popular there in current polls, and his presence would likely just drag down the Republican ticket there.

"Jon Ossoff just ordered another bottle of scotch," wrote The Independent's Eric Michael Garcia, adding that Trump rallies would be "Risky no doubt. Collins is already considered very right wing and Trump is underwater in Georgia."

"LMAO yeah sure, bring out the super unpopular president in the middle of a race," wrote the Polling USA account. "Even Bush knew better than this."

"'Please don't throw me in that brier patch.' - Jon Ossoff," wrote Middle Georgia University professor Christopher Lawrence — a reference to the story of Brer Rabbit.

"Ossoff might win by double digits," wrote political analyst Andrew Donaldson.
