Bannon is focusing on the decision to breach the Capitol (as opposed to merely planning protests outside) & seems to be trying to blame the head of the Oathkeepers (Stewart Rhodes) & his deputy (Epps). 1/ t.me/praying_medic/…
He is correct that planning of the breach matters a lot more than planning of outdoor events. But I suspect he is scapegoating w/ Epps and Rhodes. 2/
On the bright side, Bannon is acknowledging that breaching the Capitol was a big deal. So why did Bannon’s pal, Frank Scavo, seem to know the breach would occur right before it did? And why did Scavo refer to the operation as “top secret”? 5/
And how did Scavo come to be represented by Ernie Preate whose daughter is Bannon’s publicist? 6/
“Grant Woods, longtime friend of McCain & former Arizona AG, dies at 67” - 10/23/21
Grant Woods was a good man. He spoke out against the Bush DOJ’s political prosecution of @DonSiegelman, which Obama & Holder refused to rectify. 1/ thehill.com/homenews/state…
This also explains why Steve Bannon suddenly has a counter-narrative and Fall Guy (Steve Rhodes secretly worked for feds and tricked MAGAs into the insurrection). Yeah, that’s it, Steve. 1/
Look over here. Steve Bannon was a guest speaker for a 12/29/20 “Stop the Steal” event w/:
* Sean Moon, leader of a MAGA-loving AR15 church
*Daryl M. Brooks, Giuliani “voter fraud” witness, convicted sex offender, whose 1/6 FB post is below
* Frank Scavo, 1/6 FB post below. 1/
2/ Daryl Brooks claimed w/o evidence that his FB was hacked & that he wasn’t inside the Capitol or looking for Watson’s office. His pal, Scavo, claimed that he (Scavo) was not inside the Capitol until he was burned by the photo he took of himself inside the Capitol.
3/ Scavo is from Old Forge. Trump made this random stop there on the day of Bannon’s arrest.
Bannon has said that he opposes Islamic extremism. Ironically, he has no apparent problem w/ Christian extremism &, as recently as 2014, belonged to the CNP, which opposes abortion rights & gay marriage & wants to bring God into schools. @jennycohn1 w/ @NicoleSandler 1/
CNP members & affiliated groups were involved in organizing the January 6 protest that turned violent. They are also involved in manufacturing faux outrage over CRT & mask mandates, which has fueled the (sometimes violent) attacks on public schools. 2/ nicolesandler.com/10-25-21/
Although I didn’t mention it in the interview, Bannon also has no apparent problem with the MAGA-loving “religious sect” that worships with AR15s and is an offshoot of the Moonies “church.” So much for Bannon’s concern with religious extremism. 3/
If @January6thCmte wants to know about premeditated plans for violence, they should speak to Frank Scavo of Old Forge, PA. Cuz he hangs w/ the AR15 cult (#MAGAMoonies), his lawyer is Bannon's pal (Ernie Preate, a convicted felon), & he seemed to know what was about to happen. 1/
"There are supply chain crises across the globe," mainly due to Covid19, but "none of these countries are experiencing fights at fuel pumps, labour shortages across all sectors, a year-long decline in imports & exports as Britain has since [Brexit]." 1/ bylinetimes.com/2021/10/22/a-w…
2/ "Even though he has a healthy majority, the Prime Minister is ideologically captured by the Faragiste right and the European Research Group – the Tories’ ‘party within a party’ – whenever it seeks to mitigate supply strains by moving closer to the EU."
"Meanwhile, in terms of finances and propaganda support, the Government is nearly completely dependent (as Byline Times and others have revealed) on city traders, hedge funds, foreign-born oligarchs, and press barons domiciled overseas for tax purposes." 3/
