In 2019, Steve Bannon reportedly recorded 12 to 15 hours of himself interviewing Epstein for a documentary, which The Hollywood Reporter described as seemingly designed to get Epstein ready for an image-changing sit-down interview with a news outlet like 60 Minutes, with Bannon playing the part of Mike Wallace.

The Hollywood Reporter reported that the unreleased documentary was not the extent of their relationship author Michael Wolff has claimed Bannon was a frequent visitor to both Epsteins Manhattan townhouse and his Paris apartment, and the two exchanged calls and emails almost every day."
Additionally, according to Business Insider, people who spent time with both men said the two acted like friends around each other, with Bannon advising the notorious sex trafficker on how to handle his myriad legal and media investigations."
Though Bannon promised over the summer to release a five-part series" on Epstein next year, elected officials and media figures across the political spectrum have pressed for an earlier release.
Earlier this year, right-wing figures Roger Stone, Benny Johnson, and Ben Shapiro all called on Bannon to release the footage he taped with Epstein. In doing so, they joined Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA), the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, as well as Media Matters President Angelo Carusone, who pointed out that Bannon has gone radio silent on the tapes. . .

(1,567 posts)2. What I found so alarming in the
released Epstein emails is Bannons asking Epstein for his advice on how to handle the Kavanaugh witness (Dr. Ford) who accused K of raping her in high school. Epstein advised Bannon to have her asked about her medications and how meds can generate false memories.
I havent heard any sense of outrage over this discovery this week.

It should be huge news, but given the current info dump it seems to be getting lost

something to the effect of "He's (Chump) a flawed person but he's all we have and he was chosen by Devine decree."
It's so fucking hysterical (and depression inducing) that anyone, ANY. ONE. believes a thing Bannon says. Just last year I think he was living on the super yacht of a major Billionaire Criminal from China.
