Bannon gets an SC continuance in October due to his counsel's prior engagements in SDNY, and today that counsel withdraws.

(And anyways, an associate can appear on behalf of lead counsel as a stand-in, just for a status freaking conference. Sigh.)

Bannon: "With a first wave of “voluminous” discovery due on 9/29/20 prosecutors hope to extract emails and other files from phones, and they expect to know by the next hearing whether more time will be needed to defeat encryption. "

Backing up a bit...

8/19: "Bannon's nonprofits set up in Rudy's building in Aug 2019. Here's the IRS paperwork that @SaysDana was able to pull up."

@SaysDana 9/10/20 Guo assoc: "Mr Giuliani, King of NY, Trump's personal lawyer!

Breaking the news of the revolution, Mr Guo and Mr Bannon's influence is too great!

Meet you at the Lutheran Society at 10:15 tonight!"

@SaysDana Bannon was granted travel to VA, MD, and CT:

https://twitter.com/KlasfeldReports/status/1296546671158087681

@SaysDana "Bannon cannot travel internationally, or use private jets or boats without express permission.

Pretrial services does not object to the agreed-upon conditions of release."

https://twitter.com/KlasfeldReports/status/1296542731121172485

@SaysDana "The parties agree to a bond of $5 million, secured by $1,750,000 by financially responsible persons and travel restrictions, the prosecutor says.

Bannon will* await trial in the D.C. area.*"

https://twitter.com/KlasfeldReports/status/1296541606422740993

Has Bannon been breaking his travel restrictions?

Seriously, I'm asking.

10/15/20: Steve Bannon’s and Rudy Giuliani’s Chinese billionaire Guo Wengui’s assets have been frozen by a NY state judge:

"swanky NY apartment"?

Bannon photo bomb with Rudy (and the guy in the next tweet), who tells everyone to meet at "Lutheran society at 10:15 tonight! (9/10/20)".

Did Bannon travel to NY? With permission from judge?

A month later, some of Guo's assets (yacht, NY apt), frozen by a NY judge (unrelated matter).

https://twitter.com/MsMariaT/status/1317916214698545153

(Have to feed the kiddies, I will come back and pull up the docket to see if there was anything granting leave to travel to NYC or elsewhere. 🤓✌🏼)

Just setting here. Audrey Strauss.

Should probably tie this one in, first:

8/19/20: "NYAG and SEC reviewing: Fundraising at Company Tied to Steve Bannon and Guo Wengui Faces Probe"

Guo's Chase and Wells Fargo Accounts frozen.

8/20/20: Steve Bannon Arrested/Indicted

https://twitter.com/MsMariaT/status/1296449354820128770

"The FBI was examining Guo’s work with Bannon before the private placement, FBI agents had been investigating Guo and $ used to fund his US media efforts for 6+ months, prosecutors in US attorney’s offices in Manhattan & Brooklyn were involved in probe"

"In light of today's reporting that RU IRA used propaganda targeting African Americans in 9/15, in their efforts to sway HRC's most reliable voting block away, this is worth a re-read:

"[The] exec director of the Trump campaign committee, said invoices show Colt Ventures was paid for a ­soc-media project that involved video-content creation and “millennial engagement” in the campaign’s final month (10/16)" 🚩🚩

Trump, the campaign at least, is wrapped up in this (per above).

"Prince knew a host of Trump campaign officials and went on hunting trips with the president’s sons, according to a memo of the FBI’s interview with Steve Bannon,"

The "hunting trips" are a ruse."

https://twitter.com/MsMariaT/status/1320455104550465536

Called it in AUGUST: "Notice Trump says he hadn’t had “dealings” w/ Bannon in a long time. He did NOT say they hadn’t spoke recently. That’s intentional, stick a pin in it...."

This is all coordinated. Rudy, Trump, Bannon "Chinavirus"

Big Trump donor Bernie Marcus helping to spread around Steve Bannon's propaganda on Fox 5/15/20:

Witting or unwitting?

https://twitter.com/MsMariaT/status/1306714522158153728

Bernie Marcus is the donor that told Trump he needed to bring Bannon back. Sheldon Adelson is going in on this PAC, Preserve America, too.

Bernie Marcus was pushing for Bannon, then Trump disavows Build The Wall on 7/12/20. Was Trump tipped off that indictments were in the pipeline? 🤔

https://twitter.com/MsMariaT/status/1296939472337027073

OK, to Pacer....

10/19: The defendants (Kolfage, Bannon, Badolato, *and others*) knew the Feds were poking around their bank accounts in October 2019.

They began to take evasive measures. Donors might not know about that, *but Bill Barr likely would.* 👇

(Courtlistener's not paywalled.)

Bannon Docket:

courtlistener.com/docket/1746218…

Steve Bannon's status conference (SC) continued to 12/2/20 (so the shitbag can retain new counsel).

courtlistener.com/docket/1746218…

8/20/20: "Travel RESTRICTED to SDNY/EDNY/DDC, MD, EDVA & DCT, **Points between RESIDENCE and SDNY for travel TO COURT**; Surrender travel docs (& no new apps); PT supervision as dir'd by PT Svcs; D to be released on OS; Remaining conditions to be met by 9/3/20. No int'l travel."

I did a global search for the word "travel." There were no other refs to Bannon's travel in the docket (up to today's date).

Bannon was allowed to travel from his home to SDNY for *travel to court.*"

No mention of "traitor meetings in swanky NY apt with Rudy, OK." 🙃👍

A sealed document was entered in Bannon's case on 10/14/20.

(Superseding indictment? No idea; speculating of course.)
