Stephen Bannon promised President Trump that he was "going off the chain" to attack GOP donor Paul Singer, a financial backer of the publication that reportedly helped fund the research that led to a controversial dossier linking Trump to Russia, Axios reported Sunday.

Bannon reportedly called Trump on Friday night after news broke that the Washington Free Beacon had originally funded the anti-Trump research that eventually led to the dossier. Singer funds the conservative publication.

Bannon reportedly told Trump he had wanted "to set things right with Singer and his entire crew" for a long time.

Singer, a hedge fund billionaire, is also a top donor for the Republican party and donated $1 million to Trump's inauguration.

Should I hold my breath and hope that Susan Collins will also demand an investigation into Paul Singer for funding the dossier?

1. Eating their own.

It will just better.

2. These are disgusting people.

Apologies to people.

3. Once Trump knows what Republicans stabbed him in the back- he will hate them forever.

Trump better not turn on Bannon now, he's still not happy being left behind in the WH and now kicked out of washingtondc 'admin' job.

4. Collins is now on team tRump so we'll see.....

9. Always was. But she DOES NOT really want Dems to "testify"

on the dossier. There's nothing illegal there, and it would only focus voter attention on a hearing that would reveal that while reiterating Russia Trump dozens of times.

I think the various media and others who are acting out now, pushing lies and so on, are indicators of power chains being pulled. Putin is hardly the only one who can control others by threatening to hurt or even destroy them.

I'm really looking forward to seeing what happens with Bannon and Singer. Bannon's hugely financed by a fallen-off-the-right nutso supposed billionaire (maybe not). Singer's another right-wing billionaire for real, estimated 2.8.

11. i dont know what happened BUT, Collins is in LOCKSTEP with trump now for sure.......

[SergeStorms]

5. If there's one thing you can count on a Republican for.....

it's being fair and equitable. I'm sure Ms. Collins intends to get to the bottom of that sticky little problem.

6. One aspect

At least he acknowledges that he must be kept on a chain.

[BumRushDaShow]

7. So they finally admit that THEY (GOP) originated and funded it?

Who'da thunk it?

[Achilleaze]

8. republican "values" are right out of the freaking cesspool

disgusting

10. Singer is a vile piece of shit. Can we Lock these two in a room with

a cue stick snapped in half and see who comes out?
