Former Trump adviser Steve Bannon arrives on Capitol Hill to meet with House Intelligence Committee

Former White House chief strategist Stephen Bannon arrived on Capitol Hill this morning for a closed door meeting with the House Intelligence Committee.

Bannon is expected to face questions about the ongoing investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election.

This meeting comes after Bannon resigned as executive chairman of Breitbart News following the release of Michael Wolff’s tell-all "Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House." The book, which includes harsh comments from Bannon on the controversial June 2016 Trump Tower meeting between campaign officials and a Russian lawyer, renewed questions about Trump’s campaign activity.

So after he started trashing Trump they bring him in. It seems likely he’ll flip and he probably knows a lot given his insider status. Let’s just hope Trump is as clean as we believe he is.

I wouldn’t mind sitting in on this one. Perhaps the Democrats might ask something that would stir up an interesting response or two.

DU must be very excited. I glanced at the place a few days ago, and they were convinced Bannon is the anti-Trumper who will bring the POTUS down.

The media is breathlessly hoping, for the millionth time, that this will be the big one that ends Trump’s presidency and Hillary can step in.

Maybe not. But how big a backstabber does a person have to be in order to convince DU that they will be Trump’s downfall?

So he wasn’t a witness or person of interest at all until after turning on Trump.

This proves without a shadow of a doubt that this investigation is a scam and borderline coup attempt and needs to be shutdown immediately.

Why, I think Mueller looks sloppy enough himself, he doesn't need advice.
