Just one day after his arrest, President Donald Trump’s former adviser Steve Bannon is vowing to fight fraud and money laundering charges tied to a fundraising campaign that claimed to support the building of the Trump administration’s Southern border wall.
Sure, Steve. Sure.
Tell that to your cell mate.
“This fiasco is a total political hit job,” Bannon said.
Why does that sound vaguely familiar?
Trump’s now in a tight spot, having distanced himself from the group and yet lovin’ himself a conspiracy.
“I’m in this for the long-haul. I’m in this for the fight,” Bannon said. “I’m going to continue to fight.”
Good for you, Steve, that all sounds very defiant but the thing with criminal charges is if you don’t want to go to jail you’re pretty much obligated to mount a defense. It doesn’t make you special. You don’t get extra points for not wanting to go to jail. That’s assumed. Idiot.
Nobody has even uttered your name in about three years, dude.
You’re not IN politics any more. You’re nobody to hit.
Fly vomits to feed. Story at 11.
But of course.
Yawn.
And we’d like to know where you got the boat from…
Hit job or not - they gotcha and you are never going back to Italy, you disgusting son of a bitch.
Patriotism, move over. Now “political hit job” is the last refuge of a scoundrel.
Populism has replaced patriotism as the last refuge for scoundrels.
“I’m going to continue to fight.” MEANS one or all of these:
1 / I can’t wait to trade testimony for lenience.
2 / A pardon should be in the works as we speak.
3 / I am slam-dunk guilty and don’t want to go to jail, so I will delay, delay, delay…
These charges are the small potatoes.
SDNY wants him to turn on his Chinese benefactor.
Zzzzzzzz… That’s all this guy has? I shouldn’t be shocked a Hollywood producer is going to the well one too many times, not admitting the content has grown stale.
You won’t be found guilty of anything political Steve-- though perhaps you still might.
You’ll be tried and will almost certainly be found guilty of wire fraud for stealing a portion of $25M donated to a 501©(4).
Then there’s the other scam involving an amount in excess of $300M. Of which, the amount you’ve stolen has not yet been divulged. Guessing more than the $1M in the first case.
The only hit job here Steve? Is the one you’ve performed on yourself.
Here’s hoping you can’t buy your freedom with grifted cash.
He’s sounding very fork-stuck to me… and desperate. Good. He deserves every pound of pressure coming down on his head. Karma has a name…
I read a transcript of his ‘statement’ outside the court where he was indicted. So much gobbledygook. Is this just the ‘new semantics’ of the frothy right? Stuff a sentence with a couple of trigger words and then blather on around them repetitiously and nonsensically?
“Fight, yeah, gonna fight disgrace some fight, not give up wall fight never stop brown things fighting…”
I also read that he’s been slapped with $5 million bail, and has to pay $1.75 million up front. That cash has to come from a reliable source, is due in a couple of weeks and… he doesn’t appear to have a source for that money yet. Crowdsourcing bail in 3…2…1…?
I’m surprised the court allowed him to keep his “War Room” soapbox. It’s going to be nonstop “victim” rants for the duration…
OT: Trump will not be happy, coming on the weekend before his convention.

So, Trump’s not funding it.
You mean that even the Republicans hate you? It is such a knee jerk response that he doesn’t even understand who it was that indicted him.
