Steve Bannon Calls for Federal Reforms, Drastic Actions in New Trump Term

Fresh out of federal prison, a former Trump advisor has quickly made headlines by calling for significant transformations within the U.S. government and military.

Steve Bannon, a former Trump strategist, has proposed recalling Gen. Mark Milley to active duty for court-martial in the upcoming Trump administration, as the Daily Mail reports.

Bannon's political resurgence comes shortly after serving a four-month sentence for contempt of Congress.

In an interview conducted by former Trump press secretary Sean Spicer, which was set to air Friday evening, Bannon expressed his vision for a major overhaul of federal institutions.

Bannon's Advocacy for Dismantling FBI

In his statements, Bannon particularly focused on dismantling the FBI, proposing that it be completely taken apart.

According to him, this action would pave the way for rebuilding a federal law enforcement force from scratch if deemed necessary by the government.

"I think the FBI ought to be taken apart, shut down as a federal agency," Bannon declared during the interview. His aggressive stance extends beyond just the FBI, as he also calls for sweeping changes across other federal organizations.

Pressure on Gen. Mark Milley

Gen. Mark Milley, former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, who has previously criticized Trump by calling him "fascist to the core," is a central figure in Bannon’s call for action. Bannon suggests that Milley should be recalled to active military duty specifically to face court-martial proceedings.

"Number one thing is, I think Mark Milley has got to be recalled... the first action of President Trump," Bannon stated. He emphasized the need to reassert civilian control over the Pentagon to ensure that military leadership is in alignment with elected officials' directives.

Proposed Appointments in Trump’s Potential New Administration

Within the realm of the new Trump administration, Bannon has been influential in advising on prospective appointments. He has recommended controversial figures such as former Rep. Matt Gaetz for the role of attorney general.

The proposed appointments could face robust opposition in the Senate, as indicated by the expected contentious confirmation hearings for picks like Tulsi Gabbard as Director of National Intelligence among others. Bannon has braced the public for a "firestorm" of political battles leading up to, and possibly extending beyond Inauguration Day.

Reforming the Press and Legal Landscape

Bannon is not just focused on military and security agencies. He is also advocating for a complete revamp of the way the White House interacts with the media and oversees U.S. attorneys. Such moves, he believes, are crucial to reshaping the federal government’s mechanics to better serve the administration's goals.

His vision for reform includes more stringent control over federal legal frameworks, suggesting a purge and reappointment of U.S. attorneys to realign them with upcoming administrative policies.

Public and Media Reaction to Bannon’s Plans

The bold and sweeping reforms proposed by Bannon are likely to spark widespread debate among the public and media alike. His viewpoint reflects a deep desire for a substantial reformation of the American federal structure under a renewed Trump administration.

As Bannon prepares to influence another potential presidency, his plans suggest a robust approach to governance that involves not just policy shifts but also significant changes in the structure and personnel of key federal agencies.

Conclusion

In summary, Steve Bannon, shortly after being released from federal prison, has suggested recalling Gen. Mark Milley to active duty to face a court martial in the new Trump administration.

Bannon is advocating for significant reforms including dismantling the FBI, appointing controversial figures such as Matt Gaetz, and reforming U.S. attorney positions and White House press interactions.

His proposals outline a potentially aggressive reshaping of governance aimed at reasserting control over various federal functions and institutions.
