His thug past...according to Wikipedia
Bannon's first marriage was to Cathleen Suzanne Houff, born 1955.[86] Bannon and Houff had a daughter, Maureen, in 1988.[87][88] They were divorced.[58]
Bannon's second marriage was to Mary Louise Piccard, a former investment banker, in April 1995. Their twin daughters were born three days later.[89]
Bannon was charged with misdemeanor domestic violence, battery and dissuading a witness in early January 1996, after Piccard accused Bannon of domestic abuse. The charges were later dropped when his now ex-wife did not appear in court.[90] In an article in The New York Times, Piccard stated her absence was due to threats made to her by Bannon and Bannon's lawyer:
Mr. Bannon, she said, told her that "if I went to court he and his attorney would make sure that I would be the one who was guilty"... Mr. Bannon’s lawyer, she said, "threatened me," telling her that if Mr. Bannon went to jail, she "would have no money and no way to support the children." ... Mr. Bannon’s lawyer ... denied pressuring her not to testify.[91]Piccard and Bannon divorced in 1997. During the divorce proceedings, Piccard also stated that Bannon had made antisemitic remarks about choice of schools, saying that he did not want to send his children to The Archer School for Girls because there were too many Jews at the school and Jews raise their children to be "whiny brats". Bannon's spokesperson denied the accusation, noting that he had chosen to send both his children to the Archer School.[90][92][93][94][95]
Bannon's third marriage was to Diane Clohesy. That marriage also ended in divorce, in 2009.[96]

Ya but who do you think supplied the tin foil for Trump's hat. Probably turned Trump orange too with those wacky nutritional supplements they hawk at extreme mark ups compared to similar products.
All Jones advertisers should all be boycotted and States Attorney Generals should look into Alex Jones marketing techniques. Making a buyer feel they are following exclusive inside news and that Alex Jones has connections and an almost MD like knowledge of these supplements with his fancy degree from Austin Community college.
Unfair marketing practices. One less propaganda outlet.

The complaint was originally filed in October alleging the Trump Organization and Los Angeles real estate firm Irongate did not pay federal taxes, or have proper building permits for an ultimately failed luxury condominium project in the Mexican border city of Tijuana.
The complaint was broadened on Wednesday to allege Trump violated Mexican law by, as a foreigner, seeking to buy property within 31 miles (50 km) of the U.S. border to develop the Trump Ocean Resort Baja project, the official Jaime Martinez, who filed the complaint as a private citizen, told reporters.
