In a charged discussion with Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, Steve Bannon zeroed in on what he views as the most urgent threat to President Trump’s agenda: the deliberate sabotage of legislation by unelected bureaucrats—specifically the Senate parliamentarian. This procedural figure, originally appointed by Democrat Harry Reid, has stripped out key America First provisions from Trump’s flagship bill, enraging conservatives and highlighting what Bannon sees as a broader lawfare campaign against the MAGA movement.

His message: Republicans must stop surrendering to procedural constraints that Democrats long ago weaponized.

The most important topic to Bannon is the obstruction of Trump’s legislative agenda by entrenched bureaucrats and procedural gatekeepers. At the heart of this confrontation is the removal of conservative provisions—such as banning taxpayer-funded gender surgeries for minors and blocking illegal immigrants from accessing Medicare and Medicaid. For Bannon, these were central promises of Trump’s second-term platform, and their removal represents not a legal necessity, but ideological sabotage from within the system.

Bannon and Greene argue that these removals were not consistent applications of Senate rules. While the parliamentarian allowed a 10-year moratorium on state regulation of artificial intelligence—a sweeping federal overreach—she blocked socially conservative provisions on the grounds that they were policy-oriented. This inconsistency, Bannon emphasized, is a symptom of a deeper institutional rot: the existence of left-leaning operatives within procedural roles who are empowered to override the will of voters and elected officials.

In response, Greene called for the immediate firing of the Senate parliamentarian and replacing her with a Republican who will uphold President Trump’s policy goals. Bannon supported this strongly, tying it into his larger warning that Republicans must learn to wield power when they have it. He criticized the GOP for keeping Democrat appointees in key positions—including the House chaplain—and failing to exercise political control over the legislative process.

Bannon also voiced concern over what he sees as the rising threat of sophisticated Democratic grassroots campaigns, particularly those backed by the Justice Democrats and socialist movements. He warned Republicans not to dismiss these insurgent campaigns as fringe or unserious, especially after a Democratic socialist’s recent victory in New York. In his view, Democrats are rebuilding from the ground up while Republicans risk being outmaneuvered again by underestimating their opposition.

Ultimately, Bannon’s central theme is clear: President Trump’s legislative victories are meaningless if unelected, hostile actors within the government can gut those bills before they ever reach his desk. His solution is not compromise but confrontation—removing bureaucratic obstacles and forcing a full alignment of the legislative process with the MAGA mandate. Without that, he warns, conservatives may win elections but continue to lose the war.
