Word is out from the White house that Bannon is fired.

Word is out among Bannon's associates that he resigned.

Either way, it's the end of a six month era. [party]:band:[party][party]
 
Not on CNN yet. Where did you hear it?
 
Watching Breitbart turn on Trump is going to be hilarious.
 
I wonder what (else) is going on with this big meeting at Camp David. It is about bedtime here. I suppose we will know a little of it when I wake up.

Rumor has it that the military and security leaders are going to confront Trump about the impact his embrace of white supremacy has on our international standing. When Der Spiegel and The Economist are featuring cover art with POTUS and KKK hoods there is a consensus that he is bad for America's reputation in the world.
 
I read an article only minutes ago saying Bannon was rumored to be on the way out, then I saw that he is actually out on various social media accounts and stuff.
 
While I would never consider them a reliable source under normal circumstances, in this case I consider them the authority...Breitbart is running the 'Bannon resigned last week' story. While I would never just take their word on the mechanism, it's clear that Bannon has confirmed his version of events to them.

Nobody cared about America's international standing until now.. but now everybody suddenly does? The U.S. government has been a laughing stock for months now, but I suppose maybe it wasn't entirely clear to everyone

There was some degree of denial available.

Number one magazine in Germany.
Der Spiegel said:
U.S. President Donald Trump is a racist and a hate preacher. It's time to stop trivializing the immense damage he is causing.

Denial is no longer an option.
 
CNN says Trump is angry with Bannon because he contradicted him on NK and appears to have an exaggerated sense of his power at the WH. I'm inclined to believe that explanation, since Bannon has actually condemned the far right and white supremacy much more forcefully and unambiguously than his boss. And I'm inclined to believe that Trump's tepid response to Charlottesville was due to ego rather than Bannon.
 
I think we will see a further drop in Trump's poll numbers. Some of the hard core may desert him, especially if Bannon gets Breitbart to attack trump.
 
On some other fake news site no doubt...
As everyone already knows, CNN is fake news... until its on FOX News it didn't happen.

Read further. I already pointed out that it is on Breitbart. Fox will pick it up soon, since Breitbart is one of their primary sources.
