Emails: Breitbart editor pledges to do 'dirty work' for Bannon, smears Ivanka

Source: CNN -- Oliver Darcy and Jake Tapper

A self-described "email prankster" seemingly fooled top editors at Breitbart over the weekend into believing he was Steve Bannon, the fired White House chief strategist who returned to the right-wing website as executive chairman on Friday.

In the emails, Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow pledged that he and several other top editors would do Bannon's "dirty work" against White House aides. The emails were shared with CNN by the prankster.

In other emails, Marlow suggested he could have Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump ousted from the White House "by end of year" and shared a personal smear about their private lives, perhaps an indication of how low the website is willing to go to achieve its agenda.

This is not the first time the anonymous email prankster, who tweets under the name @SINON_REBORN and describes himself as a "lazy anarchist," has pulled a stunt like this. ..........

reacts to rat-fucking. They've been doing it to Democrats for decades, it's about time someone turned the tables. It's about time someone started showing the GOP how badly stuff like this can mess up personal and political ties.

I don't know who the "prankster" is, but there's an open invitation to a steak & lobster dinner waiting for him/her from me.

in the WH, anyway. Neither has the experience or credentials for whatever the HELL it is they are doing. I think Ivanka wants to get away from her kids, let nannies raise them until it is photo op time. Travel worldwide and obtain patents for her stolen styles. I seriously think she is as intelligent as daddy, and we know what a dim bulb that clown is.
