Ignoring the cease and desist, Henry Holt announced that they will publish Wolff’s book four days early.

I agreed with you until earlier today when it came out that Wolff has audio tapes of almost every conversation in question and on the subject of “How would you know what Bannon said to Ailes at a dinner party?” the response was “The dinner party was at my house.”.

Not a star gate; it’s actually an inter-dimensional drive that accidentally sends a spaceship to — for lack of better terminology — Hell.

It’s covered elsewhere in the day.
