My problem with Steve began when he testified under oath to the House Intelligence Committee, as I did, and correctly said he and I had never discussed WikiLeaks, Julian Assange, or the emails Democrats were claiming had been stolen. But then, to the surprise of the MAGA movement, Steve popped up as a MUELLER WITNESS at my trial and said the direct opposite—essentially perjuring himself and siding with the Mueller witch hunt in a trial against me that was meant to take down President Trump. George Washington University Law School professor Jonathan Turley noted the inconsistencies and told The New York Post, “He [Bannon] has two diametrically opposite sworn statements.” I first noted a story in the New York Post reporting that Steve Bannon had been seen entering Epstein’s palatial home in Manhattan in 2018. The NY Post would go on to also report that Bannon visited Epstein at his Paris apartment.
Who cozies up to a man then-convicted of sex crimes in Florida involving children? I said so on Infowars at the time. Communications between Steve Bannon and Jeffrey Epstein, recently declassified by the DOJ, show Bannon denigrating Trump, calling him “stupid,” calling for his removal as President under the “25th Amendment,” and bragging about Bannon’s undermining of Trump’s China trade policy. Bannon pleaded guilty to DEFRAUDING donors of the We Build the Wall nonprofit of $15 million. It had nothing to do with Trump. His two co-conspirators served long prison sentences. Bannon, on the other hand, was given no jail time. Bannon would then be named as an unindicted co-conspirator in the $1 billion fraud trial of his shady Chinese patron, who is convicted of various financial crimes—but Steve is not prosecuted.
Now there seem to be legitimate questions and a lawsuit pertaining to Bannon’s management of a Bitcoin company. Any reasonable reading of the texts and emails released by the DOJ shows the intimacy between Bannon and Epstein—with Bannon saying in an email to Epstein that he, “not DJT,” was the center of the movement. Bannon began attacking @elonmusk when Musk began calling for full disclosure regarding Jeffrey Epstein. Bannon claimed that Elon was not a legitimate U.S. citizen and demanded that Musk lose all federal government contracts such as SpaceX and Starlink. Elon said Bannon would be in the Epstein files and that Bannon will yet go to prison—I believe Elon will yet be proven completely right about Steve Bannon. Bannon went to prison because he decided to completely ignore a subpoena from a House investigatory committee.
He could have simply fulfilled his legal obligation by showing up for the hearing and asserting his Fifth Amendment rights, which both General Flynn and I did; not because I have anything to hide, not because of anything I know, but because I have extensive experience with Democrats turning honest testimony into a process crime. For some reason, Bannon decided to be a martyr, or he just had bad lawyering. Now we are told the DOJ is essentially moving to vacate the charges Bannon was convicted of for defying the House subpoena; then I ask: When will Peter Navarro, whose brutal arrest on the same charge is unforgivable, also have the charges he was convicted of vacated? It is widely believed that Bannon was paying and continues to pay a small army of influencers—many of whom seem to be SILENT regarding these shocking disclosures.
I believe much of the 13 hours of video, which has not been released by the DOJ, includes Bannon further coaching Epstein on how to parry tough questions about the allegations against him. All 13 hours should be release now unedited. The claim that it was all for a “documentary” won’t wash because Bannon is in the Epstein emails COACHING Epstein about HOW TO ACT, saying, “First we need to push back on the lies; then crush the pedo/trafficking narrative; then rebuild your image as philanthropist.” If it was a documentary—it was a documentary to redeem Epstein. Was Steve getting paid, or was the payoff yet to come? Indeed, Bannon was scheduled to visit the man he called “God” and “brother” in the emails only two days after Epstein was arrested while landing in his private jet from Paris at Teterboro Airport in New Jersey. My name appears in the Epstein files because in an email Epstein complains to Bannon about an interview I did on Infowars in which I connected Epstein to the Clintons. I’m damn proud of that. That is my beef with Steve Bannon. MAGA, Roger Stone
