No doubt Bannon had some involvement.

Those pics were the ones Biden team asked twitter to take down. They violated twitter’s TOS against posting non-consensual nudes.

Of course Musk and Taibbi in the Twitter files didn’t reveal the posts the team asked about were non-consensual nudes. Because that didn’t fit their false narrative.
