OK, so it's Slate. But it really does rip Michael Wolff apart.

But I do know Michael Wolff is notorious for making provocative claims without backing them up—and that he was once described by one of his own editors as having no skill greater than creating the “appearance” of knowing things he does not in fact know.

From Slate????.................

I understand the source of the Bannon supposed quote is very unreliable and a gossip hound writer with bad credentials.

However, why did POTUS and Don Jr take it as Gospel? Clearly they believe the source, because of their reaction.

Wolff is the Kitty Jelly if political reporting

“Michael Wolff (born August 27, 1953) is an American author, essayist, and journalist who is a regular columnist and contributor to USA Today, The Hollywood Reporter, and the UK edition of GQ.”

The book quotes Bannon. And the last time I checked, those quotes are featured predominantly at breitbart.com, where Bannon is the executive chairman.

So either the Bannon quotes are correct, or for some reason Bannon wants to play up lies about him.

Okay, now,... does anyone wonder why I’ve been saying all day that I would like to sit back and see how this all plays out?

The meeting context Don Jr. was involved in, does not match up with charges of treason or disloyalty.

Folks will have to forgive me, but this “treason” charge is straight out of the Leftist101 handbook. It was their talking point since the election catastrophe for Mrs. Bill Clinton in 2016.

I simply do not believe Bannon has picked up on that line of reasoning and run with it.

I find it curious that we’ve arrived at 2018, a CRITICALLY important election year, and first thing we find is that, instead of being united, anti-Swamp factions and individuals are led into waging a civil war with one another.

Folks, the leftist media establishment, the ‘RATS, the RINOs and Swamp critters of every stripe are sitting back laughing and unable to understand their good fortune. Let’s stop falling for their tricks!

There is probably some bad blood between Bannon and Trump. Who cares as long as the both keep doing their thing.

Monty and Patton never got along but they both were good at kick Kraut ass.

ROFLMAO thinking Bannon is believable by the left when they never believed him before.

The MSM is desperate to keep the Russian narrative going, so possible BS here?

Breitbart lost a lot of its advertisers a year ago after liberals pressured them. Then Bannon was pushed out of the White House.
