Ex-wife says Trump campaign CEO made anti-Semitic remarks
Bannon was charged with misdemeanor domestic violence, battery and witness intimidation, and the Los Angeles Municipal Court issued a domestic violence protective order against him, according to a statement Santa Monica city officials issued Friday.
The Trump campaign CEO was also scrutinized for a domestic abuse charge from twenty years ago involving his ex-wife, Mary Louise Piccard.
She said Bannon told her to leave town so she couldn’t be served in the case or testify against him. “He pulled her down, as if he was trying to pull [her] into the vehicle, over the door”.

While looking at another potential school, the controversial media figure reportedly asked the director why there were, “so many Chanukah books in the library”. His attorney, along with respondent, arranged for me to leave town until the trial was over and it was okay for me to return home.
She went inside to call 9-1-1, and Bannon grabbed the phone from her and “threw it across the room”, smashing it into pieces, the report said. The 62-year-old CEO of Trump’s campaign is registered to vote in Florida, a key swing state for the Republican presidential nominee.
A police report obtained by Politico and confirmed by NBC News details a New Year’s argument about finances that allegedly became physical.
It then escalated until she demanded a divorce and told him to move out; he then went to his auto, at which point she reportedly spat at him and he responded by grabbing her neck and throat. “And when they write books that are fairly recently released, and they say wonderful things about him, and now all of a sudden they’re saying these terrible things about him”, Trump said on Meet the Press, adding, “I’ve always found him to be just a very, very good person”. Piccard claimed that was because Bannon’s lawyer “threatened me” and warned her if he went to jail she “would have no money and no way to support their children”. During Bannon’s visit with the babies about nine months after the incident, in September 1996, he spanked one of them, Piccard wrote in child custody court papers.
“I was told that I could go anywhere in the world”. Guidelines from the Florida department of state say that Florida courts and state authorities have defined legal residency as the place “where a person mentally intends to make his or her permanent residence”. She told the Post, “I have no comment and neither does my daughter”.
On Twitter, Buzzfeed News reported that Bannon’s spokeswoman, Alexandra Preate, denies these claims, saying “Mr. Bannon said he never said anything like that and proudly sent the girls to Archer for their middle school and high school education”.
