This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute.
For days, one of America’s most effective freedom-fighters, Stephen Bannon, has been subjected to relentless and savage attack by those in the “Red-Green axis” and their echo chamber in the media. Partly, that’s because he is so effective. Partly, it’s an assault on the man he serves as strategist: President-elect Donald Trump.
I just got the Bannon Treatment myself after someone falsely claimed that I had been appointed to the Trump transition team. Suddenly, the radical left, Islamic supremacists and the mainstream press seized on the chance to damage Messrs. Trump and Bannon by recycling much-ballyhooed falsehoods about yours truly.
After my status was clarified, the defamation heaped on me returned to normal levels. That being meted out to Steve Bannon and Donald Trump, however, continues unabated. It should be repudiated by everyone who understands the Red-Green axis to be freedom’s enemy.
