Minutes Before Biden Gave Vile Speech, Bannon's House Was Swatted: 'They'll Have to Kill Me First'
[Western Journal] Steve Bannon says a fake call sent armed police to his home on Thursday night.

The practice of calling officers to a home under false pretenses has become known as "swatting." Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia was a recent victim, with police sent to her home to deal with a reported shooting that never took place.

Police were summoned to Bannon’s Washington, D.C., home at 7:17 p.m., according to the Daily Mail. President Joe Biden delivered an address to the nation at 8 p.m. ET, labeling former President Donald Trump and his supporters as extremists who "[threaten] the very foundations of our republic."

Bannon said the Biden administration is culpable for the fake call targeting his home.

"This is 100 percent triggered by the White House," he told the Mail.

#1 I think we literally dodged a bullet. Can you imagine if word came out during or after Biden's speech that DC police had shot Bannon? I don't care what you think of the man, but that would have sounded like a starters pistol to me.
