Outlandish accusation thrown at MAGA star by Trump ally: 'Dissolve victims in the bathtub'
Roger Stone, President Donald Trump’s longest-serving political advisor, lobbed a startling accusation at former White House chief strategist and MAGA star Steve Bannon on Monday that included completely unfounded suggestions of unlawful disposal of human remains.
Stone has been locked in a years-long feud with Bannon, trading public insults that recently escalated into Stone challenging Bannon – whom he dubbed “Stinky Steve” – to a bare-knuckle boxing match. That feud escalated on Monday, however, when Stone responded to a viral social media post about Jeffrey Epstein having purchased a large amount of sulfuric acid.
In December of 2018, a wire transfer request form was filed by L.S.J. LLC – a company owned by Epstein – for around $4,400 to purchase six 55-gallon drums of sulfuric acid. The request was made the same day that the FBI initiated its child sex-trafficking case against Epstein, sparking speculation that Epstein had made the purchase to dispose of bodies.
An email to Epstein in 2013, however, suggests that the sulfuric acid was being used on Epstein’s private island, Little Saint James, to maintain a reverse osmosis plant to purify water.
Nevertheless, Stone ran with the initial implication – that Epstein had purchased sulfuric acid to dispose of bodies – to smear Bannon with a shocking accusation.
“The same thing Steve Bannon used to dissolve his victims in the bathtub of the home he rented in DC,” Stone wrote Monday in a social media post on X to his nearly 1 million followers.
Both Stone and Bannon were key fixtures in Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign, and both also ended up being sentenced to prison over their relationships with Trump: Stone for perjury, witness tampering and obstruction, and Bannon for fraud. Both would also receive pardons from Trump.
And yet, despite the pair’s shared experiences, Stone and Bannon’s relationship has remained increasingly hostile, with Stone frequently attacking Bannon for his past relationship with Epstein, more details of which have continued to emerge amid the Justice Department's release of millions of Epstein files.Ayrıca Şunları da Beğenebilirsiniz
