Bannon Courted Epstein to Target Pope Francis
Newly released documents from the U.S. Department of Justice reveal that Steve Bannon, former White House adviser to President Trump, discussed strategies with Jeffrey Epstein to undermine Pope Francis. Bannon expressed a desire to “take down” the pontiff, whom he viewed as an opponent to his nationalist populist vision. The messages suggest Bannon sought Epstein’s assistance in potentially adapting a book critical of the Vatican into a film, indicating an attempt to use faith for strategic political ends.
