Steve Bannon discusses “Swiss” contact and cryptocurrency funding with Jeffrey Epstein regarding alleged Obama‑admin intel concerns

Steve Bannon discusses “Swiss” contact and cryptocurrency funding with Jeffrey Epstein regarding alleged Obama‑admin intel concerns The email chain links Bannon, a senior political operative, to Jeffrey Epstein and mentions a ‘Swiss’ intermediary (Jeffrey Wernick) for a deal, plus discussion of cryptocurrency flows to a political campaign. It suggests a possible financial conduit and foreign donor scheme that could be investigated for illicit funding or intelligence sharing. The lead is moderately specific (names, dates, crypto, Swiss contact) but unverified, so it warrants follow‑up without being a confirmed blockbuster. Key insights: Bannon references a ‘solid guy’ tied to the ‘Swiss’ guys – named Jeffrey Wernick – and says due‑diligence is underway.; Discussion of using cryptocurrency (‘coins’) to receive, distribute, and possibly bypass campaign finance prohibitions.; Reference to a Politico story about Susan Rice’s lawyer and Obama administration concerns over sharing classified intel with the Trump team.
