Steve Bannon: Rupert Murdoch Behind ‘Phony’ Birthday Letter from Trump to Epstein

Steve Bannon says billionaire media mogul Rupert Murdoch’s fingerprints are all over the Wall Street Journal’s decision to publish a birthday greeting President Donald Trump supposedly wrote to child trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.

Bannon believes the Murdochs are out to get the president and will stop at nothing, the UK Daily Mail reported.

“Last night, we saw it in all its ugliness,” the media mogul and former White House adviser said during his “War Room” podcast on Friday.

“The Murdochs hate Trump.”

Trump filed a $10 billion lawsuit against Murdoch, the Wall Street Journal, and other reporters who broke the story.

Bannon said this will be Trump’s opportunity to strike at the media mogul who owns the paper through his News Corporation conglomerate.

On Thursday, the Journal printed the contents of a “bawdy” birthday card Trump allegedly sent to Epstein for his 50th birthday.

“Happy Birthday – and may every day be another wonderful secret,” the typed message said before Trump’s purported handwritten signature.

Trump has vehemently denied writing the letter to the disgraced financier and filed a $20 billion lawsuit to prove it.

Bannon thinks this is an orchestrated attack on Trump after years of back-and-forth attacks.

“The Murdochs want to take down Trump,” Bannon said.

“And this is why on this Epstein and everything, including the rest of the going at the deep state, we have to be on offense all the time.”

Bannon believes that Murdoch, who also owns The New York Post and Fox News, is the one who mobilized against Trump.

“They used the New York Post as more of a populist entity,” Bannon continued.

“And of course, Fox News is for RINOs.”

“But the Wall Street Journal is the neoliberal neocon sharp end of the stick that they come after Trump,” he added.

“And last night they tried to actually destroy him with what looks like a phony and fake letter.”

Bannon believes the Murdochs put out the “kill shot on President Trump because he had the stones to stand up to” them.

He believes Trump is now well-positioned to turn that around on them, thanks to the lawsuit.

‘In fact, we made the recommendations that are the best for President Trump in this movement, which is President Trump is best when it’s attack, attack, attack,” Bannon said.

“He can’t wait to get Rupert Murdoch on the stand.”

“You know, Murdoch swore us, you know, squirmed out of having to do the Dominion thing because of the emails that Rupert Murdoch said were going to make Trump a non-person, a non-person, but he ain’t going to get out of this one,” Bannon added.

WATCH:

The Dominion Voting Systems lawsuit came from claims Trump made that the 2020 election was rigged, which Murdoch’s networks repeated.

Trump’s legal team has already filed the case that could corner Murdoch now.

“This historic legal action is being brought against the so-called authors of this defamation, the now fully disgraced WSJ, as well as its corporate owners and affiliates, with Rupert Murdoch and Robert Thomson (whatever his role is!) at the top of the list,” Trump wrote Friday on Truth Social.

This latest attempt to get Trump is clearly problematic, but the lawsuit will address that.

Whether it’s Murdoch or one of the president’s other enemies, it’s clear that they will pull whatever dirty trick they think will work as Trump outsmarts them all.
