Epstein files reveal Steve Bannon's effort to rehabilitate his image

Epstein files reveal Steve Bannon’s 18-month effort to rehabilitate Epstein’s image through media projects while exchanging political intelligence and influencing elections.

  • The latest release of Epstein files shows Bannon offered to `rebuild your image` through a documentary and confidential media training, documented over about 18 months.
  • Bannon and Epstein found common ground in politics, sharing mutual contacts and obsessively seeking to shape world events in Europe, Israel, and six European countries.
  • Recordings included about 15 hours of interviews and two hours of video, while text and email exchanges show all‑hours communication and Bannon entering Epstein's Manhattan mansion shortly before 7 o'clock.
  • The releases immediately provoked backlash, with Laura Loomer and Erick Erickson demanding explanations and Elon Musk calling Bannon or associates `evil`, intensifying social-media fallout.
  • Legal moves this week — including a DOJ motion Monday — complicate Bannon's standing, while not accused in Epstein crimes, he faces ongoing legal developments involving the Jan. 6 subpoena case and his felony fraud plea.
