Trump Campaign CEO Steve Bannon Failed To Properly Pay Taxes For Several Years

The former CEO of Breitbart News faced numerous federal and state tax liens in the 1990s.

WASHINGTON ― The new CEO of Donald Trump’s presidential campaign failed to properly pay his taxes for several years in the 1990s, according to an analysis of public records.

Steve Bannon, executive chairman of the conservative website Breitbart News, will be overseeing the Trump campaign staff and day-to-day operations. On Wednesday, Bannon took a leave of absence from his job at Breitbart, which has been one of Trump’s biggest media cheerleaders. The move was seen as a blow to Trump’s campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, who had overseen the campaign for the last two months. Manafort will retain his title, but insiders said his role in the campaign will be significantly diminished.

According to public records, Bannon had five federal tax liens filed against him at his firm’s Beverly Hills office between 1994 and 1998, totaling $481,951. The federal liens were released by April 2000.

Bannon also had at least three state tax liens totaling $119,736 filed against him in the same period. It’s unclear whether the state liens corresponded to property taxes, income taxes or payroll taxes. Those liens were released by April 2000 as well.

Moreover, Bannon had a civil judgment lien filed against him for $84,075 by creditors in 2011, when he was serving as CEO of a firm called Affinity Media. He left Affinity the following year to serve as executive chairman of Breitbart News LLC, the parent company of Breitbart News.

The Trump campaign didn’t immediately return a request for comment.

Well, just another fine example of Trump only hiring the best.

I doubt the state tax liens were for property tax. That is usually a local concern.

The right is all about kissing the rich mans ass and given him special privileges and rights. Always has and always will.

You sound poor.

And while you are stereotyping........are you brown by chance, too?

Was he disbarred and impeached? Did he commit perjury?
Did he pay nearly $1 million to settle a sexual harassment lawsuit?

Neither did Hillary.

All those things happened to Bill.....Hillary said it was a Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy.
Did she lie? Or was she just stupid?

When are you douche bags going to start looking up every speeding ticket a Trump staffer has received?

Granted the democrat dirty tricks squad has an awesome capability to research backgrounds and generate outrage but do they really want to condemn every American who has ever failed to "properly" pay taxes which resulted in a tax lean or just republicans?

Remember all the tax scofflaws that Obama nominated for positions in his administration? What were the leftwing douche bags saying then?

Ooooooh. Demo outrage. Yum.

Well I was for Kasich, but I'm laughing my ass off. Every morning I get up at 5 am before the gym and happily tune into Donald's fuk up dejour.

It's not as entertaining as football season, but it's a nice bridge for another 3 weeks or so.

You're actually for Hillary.

Who do you think you're fooling?
