Robert Mueller reveals that Steve Bannon and two others have flipped on Donald Trump

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

Yesterday, while Steve Bannon was testifying before the House Intelligence Committee, his attorney kept calling someone on the phone to ask whether or not Bannon should answer any given question. It was widely assumed that the attorney was calling Donald Trump’s legal team. If this were the case then Special Counsel Robert Mueller would be looking to push this attorney out of the picture, right? It turns out Mueller is going in the opposite direction – and it gives away a lot.

Steve Bannon’s attorney also represents Reince Priebus and White House Counsel Don McGahn, which is only allowable if all three clients are taking the same position and therefore can’t be in conflict with each other. Rachel Maddow revealed on her MSNBC show on Wednesday evening that Mueller has officially signed off on Bannon continuing to use this attorney during his upcoming interview, despite the fact that he also represents two other Trump-Russia clients.

This means Mueller is certain that the attorney in question is not doing Trump’s bidding. Yet this is the same attorney who kept calling someone after each questions asked by the House Intel Committee yesterday, in order to find out whether it should be answered. Yet at no point did Bannon or his attorney say that “executive privilege” was being invoked, instead referring to it more generically as a “gag order.” Now that we know Mueller has 100% trust in Bannon’s attorney, it’s fairly safe to assume that the attorney was in fact calling Mueller’s people during the hearings, not Trump’s people.

In other words, Steve Bannon has flipped on Donald Trump. Bannon’s attorney is already coordinating with Robert Mueller to make sure that the House Intel Committee, whose Republican leaders are Trump puppets, couldn’t get a preview of what Bannon is going to tell Mueller. If Bannon has flipped, then by definition, so have Reince Priebus and Don McGahn. This is remarkable, considering that McGahn is still working in Trump’s White House.
