India, Feb. 21 -- Steve Bannon has broken his silence after being accused of doing a Nazi salute at Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC). Speaking to Daily Mail, the former White House strategist for Donald Trump slammed the liberal media for alleging he made the controversial hand gesture during Friday's event outside of Washington, DC.

"That was a wave to the crowd," Bannon told the outlet. "And it shows you how petrified, particularly, the Daily Mail," he added.

The 71-year-old went on to say that the allegations were an insult to the crowd of MAGA supporters who were gathered at the CPAC.

The accusations against Bannon came after Elon Musk was accused of doing a "Nazi" salute during Trump's inauguration on January 20.
