I could not agree more. I'm turned off by it myself. I'm sick of it. I just feel compelled to put down what I think is happening. Thanks for your encouragement. Only a handful of ppl read this. I know most can't believe it or thing it's over the top. I've been in that position before. For me it's just a record to point ppl to in the future to show someone was warning.

Great Q. Thx. My theory of the case is as follows:

His first foray was with Cambridge Analytica. They had contracts with lukoil and who knows how many other FSB cutouts. Bannon was thrilled with CAs psychometric manipulation capabilities. So were the Russians. CA was a UK firm that had all sorts of contracts with the military including psyop groups if I recall correctly. They also had relationships with scholars at Cambridge U who delivered intellectual support. One of these was Russian with a pretty typical profile for either an officer or agent.

There were a lot of coincidences in that backstory. But it does not end there.

Bannon has developed a lot of Chinese contacts too. His backer after he was dropped by everyone else was the supposed Chinese dissident billionaire on whose yacht he was arrested. I am v suspicious of his backstory. It's a great cover for a CCP operative.

Remember he was caught briefing a bunch of Chinese ppl on how Trump planned in advance to attack the election? Seemed a little odd to me. Does it prove anything? No. If I had a research team, millions and subpoena power it might be different. :)

Don't forget Bannon spent years trying to install fascist govts in Europe. Something the Russians supported to split the EU.

Russian and Chinese Intel services could have shared him. Likely he wasn't witting at first. But all the money flowing in was a good incentive not to ask too many questions. I suspect he wouldn't care who supported him. He loves they chaos. It's all a game to him. They only way to get someone like him is the source of the money.

Thank you. Even after all this time, I sometimes sit staring at the screen trying to articulate actions and ideas that are so bizarre to me that I'm rendered speechless for big chunks of time. A big one was the implication that the top guy whose job was to protect the constitution was its arch enemy. The system and the people in it struggled to grasp this reality.
