Steve Bannon’s alleged role in timing and drafting the 2017 travel ban executive order

Steve Bannon’s alleged role in timing and drafting the 2017 travel ban executive order The passage claims Bannon personally drafted and strategically timed the travel ban executive order to maximize protest impact. It names high‑profile actors (Steve Bannon, President Trump, John Kelly/Priebus) and suggests a deliberate manipulation of immigration policy, which is a potentially actionable lead. However, the account lacks concrete dates, documents, or transaction details, and much of the language is anecdotal, limiting its immediate investigative utility. Key insights: Bannon sent an unnamed staffer to the internet to draft the travel‑ban executive order during the transition.; The executive order was signed on Friday, Jan 27 (2017), allegedly to provoke airport protests.; Bannon is quoted as saying the timing was intended to “show up the snowflakes” and crush liberals.
