I got caught by this yesterday too: I don't think it's real.
It's from a Facebook post by Steve Bannon, but it lacks the blue tick to indicate it's the real deal rather than a mock or fake account.
Here's the post I made yesterday, but shortly afterwards I deleted it when I realized it was fake news.

For those asking for proof, here is the direct link to the Facebook post: https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=380119465692457&id=364097883961282
Edit: It may very well be a fake account, though.

Well, for one, it's a facebook post. But you're right. It's not true.
