Jeffrey Epstein with Steve Bannon: Full Leaked Interview

Video Description

This 2-hour Jeffrey Epstein - Steve Bannon interview footage surfaced online around late January 31 / early February 1, 2026, appearing widely on X/Twitter, YouTube, Reddit, and other platforms. It is NOT from any new or official release by Bannon or any formal channel. It originates from the approximately 15 hours of video Bannon personally recorded with Epstein in early 2019 (likely March - June) at Epstein's Manhattan townhouse. These were filmed as part of an unreleased "documentary" (per Bannon) or media coaching/PR rehabilitation effort (per Bannon's detractors) to help Epstein counter negative publicity following renewed scrutiny from 2018 - 2019 reporting and before Epstein's July 2019 federal arrest. Bannon has long teased releasing parts of this material, but has never fully done so publicly. The full 15 hours remained under wraps. According to author Michael Wolff, who was there for the first taping and reviewed transcripts of others, Bannon may actually have no ownership rights to the recordings - “Whatever exists is technically owned by Jeffrey Epstein or his estate.” Even if the tapes survived, Wolff says, they would likely be in the possession of Epstein’s co-executors, attorney Darren Indyke and accountant Richard Kahn.
