Bannon
Anon got a lot out of Bannon's warroom during covid and during the 2020 election, russiagate, and border invasion cycles. His foreign (europe) coverage is first rate.
Anon is having a hard time reconciling all the epstein stuff with anon's gut instincts about Bannon being a good actor.
There are only two possibilities, as anon sees it.
First possibility - Anon was completely wrong about Bannon being a good actor (separately, anon stopped paying attention to Bannon last fall for no particular reason, so it really wouldn't be a hardship for me at this point to ditch Bannon).
Second possibility - Bannon was running a counterintel operation on epstein.
There really is no middle ground.
Anon suspects the second possibility is true. Bannon would have been a good candidate to run a counterintel operation on epstein because Bannon is a slob and a drunk with a sordid past, and likely has many skeletons in his closet. Epstein would have natrually been drawn to him and to believing that he was on board with backstabbing POTUS.
Bannon is brilliant, and he strikes me as someone who wants to atone and do the right thing after a lifetime of doing sordid things. Running a counterintel op. on epstein would be good atonement.
Finally, he is surrounded by good and smart people. They likely know the deal.
Anon hopes this is all true. Time will tell.
