Overview
- Steve Bannon used his War Room show Wednesday to lash out after Virginia voters approved a redistricting referendum that outlets say is likely to help Democrats in the midterms.
- He railed against Republican consultants and singled out Senators John Cornyn, Lindsey Graham, and John Thune, saying they gave supporters nothing to work for.
- He warned Republicans could lose the Senate and said it might take a decade of door-to-door organizing for the party to recover.
- He alleged Gov. Abigail Spanberger was running a color revolution and claimed a “foreign-born deep state” aids Democrats, statements reported without evidence.
- Reporting on the referendum says the new lines could net Democrats up to four additional House seats in Virginia, which would force Republicans to rethink their fall campaign map.
