Steve Bannon, FBI Raided Homes of 35 Bannon Affiliated MAGA Allies Yesterday
The Conservative Treehouse ^ | 9 Sep, 2022 | sundance

Posted on 09/11/2022 5:15:05 AM PDT by MtnClimber

During a podcast interview between Charlie Kirk (Turning Point USA / Club4Growth) and Warroom host Steve Bannon, Mr. Bannon stated the FBI raided 35 homes, offices and residences yesterday in seemingly coordinated activity timed with his arrest in Manhattan. {Direct Rumble Link}

Bannon was arrested under dubious fraud charges in Manhattan Thursday, connected to claims he duped donors who gave money to a We Build The Wall nonprofit organization established by Bannon and his partners. The case seems to hinge on statements made by the founders of the organization that “every penny” of the $15 to $25 million raised would be spent on the wall. However, according to New York prosecutors, several hundred thousand was used by Bannon and team to pay their own salaries and expenses.

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg gave Steve Bannon the handcuffed perp walk treatment, parading him through the courthouse like a captured political trophy. Mr. Bannon pled not guilty and was released after his arraignment for money laundering, conspiracy, fraud and other charges related to the “We Build the Wall” campaign.

The statement of 35 simultaneous FBI raids is the first mention of something coordinated like this. Perhaps further details will soon surface.

I went to a “Stop the Steal” demonstration in Frankfort, Ky. the Saturday after the steal. I was one of the first there. Shortly thereafter this dude comes rolling up in a very ostentatious 4WD truck. You can actually park in front of the Ky Statehouse, which he did. He gets out of the truck with a holstered pistol and AR. He begins talking about our right to bring our guns and we need to make a show, etc. Dangerous siren songs. He, rather loudly, made his presence known the entire event. Having read about Ray Epps, in retrospect, this guy sure looked like a Judas goat ringer FIB goon.

Wrong, Tucker did a whole segment on it Thursday night only his claim it was 50 raids not 35. He had the Fed paperwork to prove it.

Here's Tucker's segment. He quotes Bannon's podcast statement, then discusses 50 search warrants and subpoenas with Harmeet Dhillon. No raids.

The knock-on affect is the Deep State directly attempting to de-legitimize the incoming 118th GOP Congress and the flood of investigations that will start in the first 100 days.

The first thing to do is establish the Church Committee II, a 3-year tribunal that will punish the politicization of the Deep State against half of this country, and more particularly against one man.

I say 3-year because the Church Committee II will release its report on the 50th Anniversary of the Church Committee in 2025, after Trump is re-elected, so that he may observe his enemies driven before him.

"In the need to develop a capacity to know what potential enemies are doing, the United States government has perfected a technological capability that enables us to monitor the messages that go through the air.

Now, that is necessary and important to the United States as we look abroad at enemies or potential enemies. We must know, at the same time, that capability at any time could be turned around on the American people, and no American would have any privacy left: such is the capability to monitor everything—telephone conversations, telegrams, it doesn't matter. There would be no place to hide.

If this government ever became a tyranny, if a dictator ever took charge in this country, the technological capacity that the intelligence community has given the government could enable it to impose total tyranny, and there would be no way to fight back because the most careful effort to combine together in resistance to the government, no matter how privately it was done, is within the reach of the government to know. Such is the capability of this technology.

I don't want to see this country ever go across the bridge. I know the capacity that is there to make tyranny total in America, and we must see to it that this agency and all agencies that possess this technology operate within the law and under proper supervision so that we never cross over that abyss. That is the abyss from which there is no return." -- Sen. Frank Church, Meet the Depressed, August 18, 1975

So if they were only friendly visits with coffee and donuts, does that make the issuing of subpoenas and warrants ok with you?

It’s pretty obvious if they can do this to the most popular man in America, the head of the national opposition, they can do it to who and however many they want.

They built up their techniques doing this to other nations. It was always a mistake to support intervention in foreign affairs where there was not a direct and imminent threat. Almost inevitable that they'd bring their talents home.

Speech and the free exchange of ideas is an immense threat to tyrants. That’s why they try so hard to censor it.

There was a lot of discussion and debate prior to the first go-around.

Will we ever see the BLM founders get perp walked? We all know what they did.

Watch out for the PM’s too.

Several DHS/FIB morons will reach out to you anonymously and ask you to meet them locally for a meeting to “plan”.

Delete that crap and don’t respond.

There are many agitators on this site. Be warned.

And the United States Department of Justice is telling reporters about the search warrants and subpoenas before they’re executed. This is really outrageous abuse by the DOJ.”

The corruption at the DOJ/FBI is so deep, they no see nothing wrong with using their office as part of an election campaign strategy by the Dems. Nothing like having the corrupt DOJ/FBI in your packet to run dirty tricks for your political campaign.

48 hour rule here. Who are these 35-50 people raided? Why such scant info on it?

In classic banana republic fashion, political enemies are simply “disappeared”. People soon learn the terror tactics of the State and know if the say anything, they may also disappear. It’s a perfect system for dictators to maintain their power.

Well, it depends on what kind of donuts they bring.

HELL, NO, OF COURSE IT'S NOT OK WITH ME. What's wrong with you?

I like to make sure facts are being disseminated, and I do my own independent research to confirm what is being said.

Bannon made it sound like 35 Mar-A-Largos happened on Thursday.

The reality was that 35 grand jury subpoenas were served. I have no doubt that FBI raids are coming, but they didn't happen on September 8th.

I doubt he will do anything significant about them, for various reasons.

When you give to Salvation Army, all of the money goes to help their causes. Of course they have to pay to keep the lights on, fuel and money to employees. It is the same for all charitable organizations.

Get back to me when you can explain how 80% of all funds given the the Clinton foundations...there were many which is illegal, went to NON charitable causes.
