During a podcast interview between Charlie Kirk (Turning Point USA / Club4Growth) and Warroom host Steve Bannon, Mr. Bannon stated the FBI raided 35 homes, offices and residences yesterday in seemingly coordinated activity timed with his arrest in Manhattan. {Direct Rumble Link} Bannon was arrested under dubious fraud charges in Manhattan Thursday, connected to claims he duped donors who gave money to a We Build The Wall nonprofit organization established by Bannon and his partners. The case seems to hinge on statements made by the founders of the organization that “every penny” of the $15 to $25 million raised would...

“They [Democrats] are going to have to print money. They’re destroying the dollar. They’re destroying the economy. It’s just an out of control and quite frankly embarrassing fiasco brought to you by Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer and of course, the illegitimate regime that is Joe Biden.” Interview...

Trump-world was rocked yet again with the explosive revelation that key figures on Donald Trump’s legal team have quit a little over a week before the former President’s impeachment trial was set to begin. Two lawyers leading former President Donald Trump’s defense in his Senate Impeachment Trial have left the legal team a little over a week before the trial is scheduled to begin, according to a person familiar with the matter: Butch Bowers and Deborah Barbier, two attorneys from South Carolina, no longer plan to represent Mr. Trump, the person said Saturday. The decision was mutual, the person said,...

During the interview Bartiromo asked Bannon President Trump’s border policies. Steve praised President Trump and even suggested Trump may get 40-50% of the Hispanic Vote in the upcoming election. Steve Bannon: To defeat Donald Trump you have to defeat him. He’s the toughest candidate I’ve seen in my lifetime. Tougher than Ronald Reagan. And so you’re going to have to bring it… Remember what President Trump is trying to do on the border is all about the rule of law. I happen to think he’s going to get 40 or 50% of the Hispanic vote in this country.

Via Mediaite. When he said last month that “the anti-establishment thing is kind of a luxury we can’t afford right now,” I guess he meant it!I don’t know what’s left of the Bannon populist revolution. He set out last year to primary every Republican incumbent on the ballot this fall (except Ted Cruz). In the course of trying to do that, he taught the party two lessons. One, from Alabama, is that even the safest of seats can be fumbled away by gambling on populist firebreathers. Two, from this Hannity clip below, is that populists will be willing to...

Former White House chief strategist Stephen Bannon publicly defended Attorney General Jeff Sessions from the attacks he’s facing from President Trump. Trump has privately and publicly blasted Sessions’ decision to recuse himself in the federal probe into possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia, most recently on Wednesday, writing on Twitter he wishes he’d chosen someone other than Sessions. But the President is “wrong,” Bannon told CNN’s Fareed Zakaria in an interview set to air Sunday. Trump pressured Sessions on at least four separate occasions last year to take back control of the Russia investigation, but Session refused, Axios reported. Sessions’s decision to recuse himself...

Bannon says in a new interview with GQ magazine.While railing against the mass importation of foreign workers to supply Silicon Valley, California’s tech industry hub and its corporations with cheap labor, Bannon said that, specifically, the H-1B visa is contributing to pushing working-class Americans out of the tech industry.

Battered by the backlash from Michael Wolff's book, Steve Bannon is trying to make amends with the Trump family, providing a statement to Axios that expresses "regret" to President Trump and praises his son, Donald Trump Jr. "Donald Trump, Jr. is both a patriot and a good man. He has been relentless in his advocacy for his father and the agenda that has helped turn our country around." "My support is also unwavering for the president and his agenda — as I have shown daily in my national radio broadcasts, on the pages of Breitbart News and in speeches and...

In his first comments after being blasted by President Donald Trump earlier in the day, Steve Bannon called Trump "a great man" while hosting a radio show Wednesday night. Meanwhile, Trump's attorney said that he has sent a cease and desist letter to the former White House chief strategist over the critical comments made in the forthcoming book by Michael Wolff.

Steve Bannon responded to President Donald Trump's blistering assault by calling the president "a great man" and saying, "I support him day in and day out." Bannon, former White House chief strategist, made the comments on SiriusXM's "Breitbart News Tonight" show hours after the Trump administration unleashed a multi-tiered blitzkrieg of rebukes and condemnation against him for his explosive remarks in Michael Wolff's new book, "Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House." But Bannon remained nonplussed and steadfast in his support of the president. "The President of the United States is a great man," Bannon said on Breitbart News...

Speaking with Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow and Breitbart London Editor Raheem Kassam, Bannon said that on Thanksgiving, Americans and, specifically, populist-nationalist conservatives should be thankful that “we’re winning.”

Bannon said a driving force behind the transformation of Saudi Arabia and other major events in the Middle East is the recognition by many regional powers that “President Trump and the United States of America have had enough of it and are just not going to tolerate anymore this financing, the exporting of radical Islamic terror into Western Europe and the United States.” He recalled Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi’s giving a landmark speech several years ago about “how Islam had to reform itself internally to Islam, just like Christianity went through a huge reformation.” *snip* “One the things that...

"We’ve got a tough slog ahead of us," Bannon said about his "war" against "the establishment." "You have to put together a grassroots movement. If you don’t put your shoulders to the wheel, it’s not going to happen." He also criticized speeches this week from former President Bush, who condemned Trump's brand of economic nationalism. "President Bush, to me, embarrassed himself," Bannon said to applause. "His speechwriter wrote a high falutin speech. It's clear he didn't understand anything that he was talking about. He equates the industrial revolution, the agriculture revolution, globalization. He has no earthly idea whether he is...

Calling on Corker to resign NOW. Have the Governor appoint Blackburn. What he said to the NY Times aboutTrump and WW3 suggests Corker is cowardly. He'll collect his paycheck and not take the honorable way out.

Is Steve Bannon more dangerous outside the White House than in? And dangerous to whom? As long as he was in the White House, no matter how much Bannon’s freelancing annoyed President Trump and senior staffers, he was part of the Trump machinery and subject to a modicum of discipline. Now, Bannon is out. He’s organizing an electoral machine to Trump’s right, and certainly to the right of the Republican Senate leadership—and he hopes to bring that leadership down. For Bannon, the victory in the Alabama Senate primary of former Judge Roy Moore over Mitch McConnell’s favorite, incumbent Luther Strange,...

Co-hosting Thursday’s show with Breitbart London Editor-in-chief Raheem Kassam, Bannon noted that late-night hosts Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel were steadily upping their level of anti-Trump vitriol in order to compete with one another, and said Breitbart News’ Big Hollywood section was helping to expose celebrities for how “dumb” they are. “Andrew [Breitbart] always said, ‘Culture is up-river from politics,'” Bannon told a caller who asked about the influence of entertainment on...

In a speech to the CLSA Investors’ Forum in Hong Kong on Tuesday, Breitbart Executive Chairman Steve Bannon stated that to avoid a trade war, China must cease its economic war on America. In a separate interview on Tuesday with David Martosko of The Daily Mail, Bannon mentioned President Trump’s planned visit to China in November to meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping and attend economic summits.

During his Sunday night interview with Charlie Rose on 60 Minutes, former White House Chief Strategist Steve Bannon finally said out loud what many of us already knew: that Hillary Clinton is “not very bright.” This was actually my favorite part of the interview because nothing is healthier for our culture than the truth, most especially a truth no one dares to speak out loud. For 25 years, Madam Clinton has been in the public eye, and for 25 years we have been told time and again and again and again two whoppers: 1) Hillary is brilliant. 2) When you...
