'We are going to put you under arrest': MAGA leader gives ultimatum to pro-Trump senator

The Hill reports MAGA podcaster and former Trump White House chief strategist Steve Bannon called for U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), to be “arrested” if he doesn’t stop traveling overseas and encouraging Ukraine to defend itself against the ongoing Russian invasion.

Bannon, who has praised Russian leader Vladimir Putin’s anti-LGBTQ policies and his “anti-woke” agenda in Russia, was also furious at Ukraine’s weekend drone attack on Russia’s bombing fleet. The strategic attack destroyed 40 aircraft deep inside Russian territory. Bannon said the White House should condemn Ukraine’s military response to the invasion and put a collar on Graham’s diplomacy of encouragement.

“The White House has to condemn this immediately and pull all support and tell Lindsey Graham to come home or we are going to put you under arrest when you come home. You’re stirring it up,” Bannon said Monday on his ‘War Room’ podcast.

He added that Graham’s cheering of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky last week amounted to undermining President Donald Trump. He also slammed Graham’s legislation sanctioning Russia and other countries that buy Russian products.

“Lindsey Graham’s over there saying, ‘Hey, forget Trump. I got the House and the Senate. We’re going to pass [the legislation]. You’re going to see something in a couple of days,’” Bannon said.

“He’s stirring it up over there,” he repeated.

Bannon’s demand comes just as CNN anchors speculated on Russia requesting a limited ceasefire on Monday in response to the attack. Up until this year, Ukraine had kept most of its drone attacks close to the Ukraine/Russia boundary, or it reserved drone strikes for Russian positions inside Ukraine.
