Which makes it even more damning. This is clearly timed to intercept the FBI response to congress that is due today, not to mention the IG report on the 15th. If Bannon was involve in its placement, then that means Bannon wanted to damage us.
Fact is, actually it is a book by a guy who has written several...

Wolff is the author of six previous books, including Rupert Murdoch biography The Man Who Owns the News. Hes won two National Magazine Awards and in addition to THR hes written for Vanity Fair, New York and USA Today.
What I don’t know is why he was given access in the White House West Wing to write this? Who gave him access...
To what end?
My question is why was author given such access to the White House? Who allowed it?

first nine months of Donald Trumps term were stormy, outrageousand absolutely mesmerizing. Now, thanks to his deep access to the West Wing, bestselling author Michael Wolff tells the riveting story of how Trump launched a tenure as volatile and fiery as the man himself.
People who’ve worked with Bannon have agreed with both your ruthless characterization and with the idea that Bannon ultimately promotes Bannon. I also see a lack of moral compass at work. Bannon fosters the image of a conservative, but it doesn’t always hold up. Bannon went to vast lengths to hire (at Breitbart) and promote Milo Yiannopoulos, for example. But to call Yiannopoulos flaming gay is to understate the issue. Milo could give flaming gays lessons.
In that sense Bannon seems to be a forceful personality in need of a rudder. Not good news for him, or for anyone associated with him.
But the media slammed Bannon as a “nazi”. How can they say he’s believable now?
Agree with your analysis completely. Bannon has been grinding an anti-Kushner ax since he left the WH [and quite possibly before]. When Bannon sees an opportunity to strike, he appears not to care who he takes down collaterally.
Steve Bannon story debunked. Guardian quotes taken way out of context from a characterization of the Lefts arguments. Obviously fake news designed to pump book sales— Jack Posobiec 🇺🇸 (@JackPosobiec) January 3, 2018

This is the from same guy who wrote the Steve Bannon quotes story pic.twitter.com/TFhBWf1efx— Jack Posobiec 🇺🇸 (@JackPosobiec) January 3, 2018
Posobiec’s heart is in the right place but he sometimes gets ahead of his facts. Breitbart is featuring the Wolfe story/quotes, and there are no corrections.
Maybe Bannon’s critics *were* right about him being a white supremacist anti-Semite:
“The rancour between Bannon and Javanka Kushner and his wife Ivanka Trump is a recurring theme of the book. Kushner and Ivanka are Jewish. Henry Kissinger, the former secretary of state, is quoted as saying: It is a war between the Jews and the non-Jews.”
Hope so...again, my question is why did he have such access and who gave it to him.
Yeah. Kitty Kelly wrote lots of books too
Seems more likely that the Bannon-Kushner episode was a battle for influence (with Trump). Kushner won and Bannon acts as if he’s bitter. (I’m positive there are prominent Jews among Breitbart’s staff. A lot of people oppose Kushner who could care less about his ethnicity.)
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.
none of this matters to Trump ( he may even privately agree Don jr should have known better).... it does however give the rest of us drama and intrigue. Especially those of us who watch the machinations of the e celebs, who will now have to decide whether to publicly disavow Bannon because of their perceived loyalty to Trump. However, Trump doesn’t send money their way, and Bannon does.
Of course, this could all be a charade in order to redirect the medias attention.
Time will tell.
He wrote 6 books—he is not a nothing author. My question which no one has addressed is who gave him access to the White House...
Of course he is lying, but he is a published author—recently wrote a book on Murdock...
