Donald Trump ally Steve Bannon has accused Ellen DeGeneres of infesting the Cotswolds after she fled America following the election.
The former White House chief strategist, 71, accused the talk show superstar and her wife Portia De Rossi of whining like little children.
DeGeneres is living in an idyllic multi-million pound farmhouse in the region after deciding to emigrate from the US in protest at Trumps impending presidency.
The 66-year-old and De Rossi, 51, who donated money to Kamala Harriss doomed campaign, decided to get the hell out, apparently vowing to never go back.
But Bannon has hit back and said theyre all infesting the Cotswolds.
Speaking from his home in Arizona, he told The Sunday Times: F*** them. Theyre not resilient… They had every advantage of state power.
They had the high ground. And guess what, we broke them and now theyre whining like little children.
Bannon eye-catchingly predicted that Maga would govern for the next 50 years in America if Trump delivers on his economical promises.

And he thinks Trumps pal Nigel Farage will be Britains next prime minister with Reform UK overtaking the Tories at the next general election.
Bannon was convicted in 2022 to two counts of contempt of Congress in 2022 for refusing to comply with a congressional subpoena related to a January 6 Capitol riot investigation.
He was released in October having been incarcerated for four months at a Danbury, Connecticut, correctional facility.
The four months in federal prison not only didnt break me, it empowered me, Bannon said on his podcast.
DeGeneres and De Rossi are said to have fallen in love with the picturesque estate set in acres of rolling Cotswold countryside which also includes a helicopter pad and swimming pool.
But the area around the couples dream home this week was swamped by astonishing flooding just days after they moved in.
The couple were left virtually marooned just days after moving into their new home after a tributary of the River Thames broke its banks.
It came after the area was battered by days of torrential rain and winds of up to 80mph.

Originally built as a farmhouse, it was converted into a modern luxury home more than 15 years ago but still retains its old-world charm, with the outlying barns connected to the main building via glazed passageways.
In total there are six bedrooms, and four bathrooms and council records show the previous owner installed an eco-friendly heat pump to supply heating to the house and pool.
There is also a five bay garage and a separate one bedroom cottage.
A source in the Cotswolds said: It really is a beautiful house.
Its so quintessentially English which as Americans they have fallen in love with, although they can forget about any glamorous southern California nightlife and weather.
The area itself is very quiet, some might even say boring as theres not much to do, especially in the colder months but there are lots of celebrities in the area.
