Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

      In September, Bannon said firing Jim Comey was the dumbest decision in modern political history bc it expanded the investigation into Trump.

      In January, his comments to Michael Wolff made it clear he opposed the June 9 Trump Tower meeting bc Paul Manafort hadn't used lawyers as cutouts to hide the corruption.

      On Monday, the lawyer that Trump uses as such a cutout, Michael Cohen, got raided. They were looking for comms bt Trump, Cohen, *and others* about something Bannon has said he and Marc Kasowitz were involved with: legal problems having to do with women.

      Want to bet Bannon (and Kasowitz, who sent a rep to the White House this week to consult with Trump) is among the "and others" included in discussions about suppressing Access Hollywood? Because I do.

      So 7 months ago, Bannon said firing the prosecutor investigating your actions was the dumbest possible decision. It was dumb when Jared was the one making such decisions. But now?!?! Bannon wants to do Kushner several better, by firing all the lawyers.

      Who's Bannon going to use for cut-out work if he fires all the lawyers?

          One more thing: If Mueller (er, um, SDNY) is asking for comms involving Cohen, Trump, AND other aides (cough, Bannon and Kasowitz), no privilege. 4's a crowd.

          Whoa! Under 18 usc 207, Bannon has post-employment cooling off period limiting contacts with the WH. On whose behalf is he doing this? If he's representing anyone else, (e.g. was put up to it by others, even if unpaid), potential criminal penalties. https://twitter.com/costareports/status/984228715742859266 …
