Operation Media Trap: Bannon and Posobiec Unmask the Murdoch-Led Assault on President Trump

WarRoom host Steve Bannon and journalist Jack Posobiec launched a coordinated counteroffensive to open Friday morning’s WarRoom in response to what they assert is a falsified Wall Street Journal (WSJ) article designed to assassinate President Donald J. Trump politically. The WSJ story in question allegedly cited a "Trump letter” late on Thursday night, which neither Trump’s legal team nor investigative journalists have seen. The absence of verifiable sourcing has raised suspicions of collusion between media and intelligence. Bannon and Posobiec identify the incident as a straightforward operation by the Murdoch-led media conglomerate to sabotage the America First movement in coordination with Deep State assets.

QUICK CLIP:

JACK POSOBIEC: A Wall Street Journal hit piece claims a Trump-Epstein letter exists but no one can produce it.

The author? Former DOJ, and tied to Fusion GPS.

Trigger Event:
A Wall Street Journal article purportedly featuring a letter that allegedly implicates President Trump surfaced without verified sourcing. Bannon claims that senior sources within Trump’s inner circle were never contacted for confirmation, and the letter itself was never shown to them before publication.

JACK POSOBIEC: If Trump was implicated in these files, why didn’t Garland release them when Dems had total control?

They chose Fusion GPS and fake indictments instead.

Key Allegations:

The WSJ acted as a “precision weapon” of the Murdoch empire against Trump.

The letter may be fabricated or based on unverified third-party rumors.

The author of the article, Joe Palazzolo, has alleged ties to the Department of Justice and connections to Glenn Simpson (Fusion GPS), which is infamous for its role in producing the Steele Dossier.

The media’s failure to verify or even present the alleged letter signals a political hit job masquerading as journalism.

INVESTIGATIVE FINDINGS BY BANNON & POSOBIEC:

Media Conspiracy Indicators:

The Wall Street Journal, NY Post, and Fox News are described as "tools” of the neoliberal ruling class.

Bannon characterizes WSJ as "the sharpest stick” in Murdoch’s anti-Trump arsenal.

Bannon accuses Murdoch of attending the elite Sun Valley Billionaire’s Conference, strategizing with tech oligarchs against Trump.

Deep State and DOJ Connections:

Posobiec identifies the WSJ journalist as having previously worked for Main Justice, a publication linked to Glenn Simpson’s wife.

There is speculation the article’s "source” could be former DOJ operatives or, sarcastically, Ghislaine Maxwell—highlighting the absurdity of the sourcing.

Pattern Recognition:

The attack mirrors prior disinformation operations, such as the Russia Hoax.

Fusion GPS, DOJ holdovers, and media fronts continue to act in tandem to entrap Trump.

ACTIONS RECOMMENDED BY BANNON & POSOBIEC:

Legal Warfare:
President Trump intends to sue the Wall Street Journal and Rupert Murdoch personally for defamation and election interference.

Recommendation: Petition the court to unseal grand jury and DOJ evidence that could expose corrupt coordination.

Strategic Counteroffensive:
Bannon reiterates: "Attack, attack, attack.” Remaining defensive invites entrapment; offense forces transparency.

Trump’s legal team should demand documentation and communications related to the WSJ article under penalty of perjury.

Information Warfare:
Posobiec calls for public exposure of all media-Deep State networks, specifically those connected to Fusion GPS and the DOJ.

Independent journalists and citizens must identify and expose the individuals responsible for disseminating such stories.

MAGA Unity Doctrine:
Posobiec emphasizes that the entire America First movement is "so back” and completely aligned.

Supporters are urged to reject mainstream media narratives and double down on defending Trump’s populist agenda.

ASSESSMENT:
The alleged media fabrication signals a continuation of lawfare and psychological operations targeting President Trump. Bannon and Posobiec’s rapid investigation and narrative framing mark a new phase in the political insurgency against the globalist media complex. With legal, informational, and grassroots efforts now activated, the America First movement transitions from a reactive defense to a coordinated offense.
