starting to regret my summer steve bannon haircut that's right.adviser, steve bannon, was indicted in federal court today for allegedly taking money from a crowd-sourced fund to build a wall along the southern border okay, so now that's steve bannon, paul manafort, roger stone, rick gates, george papadopoulos, lev parnas, igor fruman. am i forgetting anyone it's like every trump interview ends with "where do i see myself in five years? i guess, you know, prison. president trump met with the prime minister of iraq today at the white house, said trump, "how was your dri -- dri - flight, right? how was your flight? white house press secretary kayleigh mcenany yesterday declined to say whether or not president trump would accept the results of the november election and added, "the president has always said he'll see what happens and make a determination in the aftermath." and personally, i cannot wait to someday have a president whose every decision doesn't have an aftermath. "i will have an answer for you, right after we sift through the wreckage of

first of all, bannon was arrested on a 150-foot yacht. everyone was innocent till proven guilt, but let's be real, anyone arrest opened a yacht, you're guilty. also they said bannon was arrested by investigators from the post office. i don't know if it's just me but i didn't know the poaf post offe had police sz. where were they when the guys took my amazon package? that's my vacuum! the best part, why bannon was arrested, he's accusing of stealing money from people who thought they were donating to build trump's wall because you wouldn't want criminals sneaking into the country. i'm interested to see how it plays out because the people who got ripped off now hate steve bannon, but they obviously really love trumper but trump loves steve bannon, so i think it's going to end with trump getting those people to donate for bannon's defense fund, but trump steals the money and moves to mexico which he can get to easily because there's no wall. in other news, for all the people worried the baseball season wouldn't be as exciting without the fan

i spoke with steve bannon this afternoon about populism and he said this is an essential primer how we got here with a view of the populist movement, deep dive, steve bannon also said they were with us on the beach. and coulter, you will find her quote, she has high praise on the dust jacket, called this a critically important book with condescension, intelligence and extremely readable and michelle malkin. with a kid from queens, a young man doing, writing about global populism, yellow vest -- >> i will start, started as democrats, transition to the republican party, i misunderstood what the democratic party stood for. the working people's party, the party for small business owners, a party they would incite, and and forward interests to drive down wages or illegal immigration and i grew tired of traveling all over the country to the midwest and if this doesn't make sense something is going wrong here, democrat and republican say for decades as they cry for people to listen and your publicity, and their communities were shattered by integration and basically shut up and learn how to c

it's not bannon getting charged, it's that people did exactly what josh was talking about, they went and they do their job in if you're some and fraught political environment because that is what they signed up to do. at that that was the most important pot of that story and really an overlooked one. the other thing that gives me hope is that people are talking about law in ways they didn't used to. having to talk about the hatch act a lot at the party convention is probably a sign something bad has happened. but they are talking about the hatch act, and why in that case we have the ethics of law and policy to act as guardrails. if that conversation about the hatch act or the impoundment act during the impeachment process, if those conversations speaks to a thirst for law in a sense, to understand the rule of law and to recommit ourselves to the rule of law as a country, i think that is good news. karen: i think you kind of nailed it with the -- there is an awful lot of attention to the law and also a lot of questioning of how firm can the ?aw hold so, yes, we should all be hopeful m

this is going to be a funny thing to find good news in, but the arrest and charges against steve bannon, i don't any glee in seeing steve bannon charged, but people had to work hours, days, weeks at the investigatory level, and knowing they'd roll out charges to steve bannon and they've seen what happened to other people, even line prosecutors worked on cases, targeting close associates of president trump. people who have overruled, who have been forced off cases, who resigned from the department and they still did that work, still followed the investigatory leads and still rolled out those charges, so it's not ban nongetting charged that encourages me, it's they did what josh is talking about, they went and did their job in a fierce and fraught political environment because that's what they signed up to do and that's the most important part of that story and overlooked one. the other thing that gives me hope, people are talking about the laws in ways they didn't use to. you have to talk a lot about the party's national convention, it probably a sign that something bad has happened. but

lies pete steve bannon said that. it is over. we are trying to get much more than 3% or 4% of the republicans. we know we will not get the majority, but the folks like you, it is a great honor, and it is great to hear your call. have beenow we talking a lot about president trump, but there are several conservatives, like you said earlier, that are in tough races this fall. where are you falling on people like, once again, lindsey graham, are you getting involved in those senate races? montana, arizona, colorado, i about, north carolina, south carolina, and maine right now. , north carolina. we may expand the map into mississippi, since mike espey has come up, even in mississippi. we believe there is a simple rule in politics, and that rule is pain is the only teacher, and because pain is the only teacher, the people who enabled donald trump and trumpism need to be held to account. we have a set of tools to do that. we are working extensively to do that. while we will not be decisive in all of them, we think we can be

and steve bannon's contact donald trump so the carter page warrant was a direct assault on the first and fourth amendment for all americans and then to get to others on the campaign. >> it's interesting. and through my contact with the intelligence community someone gave me a heads up that was used by the comey fbi to get this fraudulent warrant. that way back in september 2016 a contact of mine with ties to the intel community said the democrats paid opposition research people to dig up dirt on candidate trump and his supporters such as me. i knew they were trying to come up with allies with the initial idea to pump that up to the media and getting that election interference campaign to deceive american voters. and this is just less than a couple of months between the 2016 election and sure enough on september 23rd, 2016. even though i'm getting all kinds of questions from reporters, "washington post" and new york times all with the same false allegations the democrats have paid for and consultants were trying to push out in every way possible finally they found a media organization

for example, and steve bannon's context, donald trump. in this respect, the carter page warrant or said direct result on the first and fourth amendment right of all americans. people from across the philological spectrum see it as an american issue. as this unfolded, when did you start to believe that they weren't just after you, they were trying to get to perhaps president trump or perhaps others on the campaign? two it's interesting sharyl. i actually threw my contact in the intelligence community, i had someone give me a heads up. even before one of the main defamatory articles which was used by the cold me fbi to get this fraudulent warrant. that was way back in septembe september 2015. a contact of mine with ties to the intel community told me that the democrats had paid quote unquote opposition research people to dig up dirt on then candidate trump and his supporters such as me. so i knew that they were in the process of trying to come up with these lies. primarily with the initial idea of pumping it out to the media. and getting pe

bannon, he's a smart guy. and he said something that i think is very telling. 3 to 5% of the republicans, it is over. we're working on that in the battle ground states. we're working on the broad national messaging and that's working. you can feel the underlying current of that and we have a lot more to do before now and election day and hopefully you'll invite me on in february and i'll have a pina colada in our hand. >> it is you who suggested things that are anatomically impossible to do with steve bannon. >> john, he could be doing hot yoga. >> i don't want to know. >> you never know. >> it's a morning show. >> thank you very much for being with us. >> all right. michael cohen will join don lemon at 10:00 p.m. tonight.

"the new york times" reports that the feds have seized a trove of emails and other communications in their case against bannon. "times" correspondent michael schmidt is also reporting that the justice department never fully investigated trump's ties to russia and that the department secretly took steps to narrow the scope of special counsel mueller's investigation without telling the fbi. that reporting comes just days after john ratcliffe, trump's director of national intelligence, announced his department will no longer provide in-person briefings to congress on foreign election meddling even though ratcliffe's office has confirmed russia is once again interfering to try to help the president. tonight house speaker nancy pelosi called that move part of trump's ongoing effort to appease russia. >> it's very clear that the president wants, invites, appreciates russia's involvement in our elections, which is not lawful. we don't want vladimir putin deciding wh

that did happen it would be a fairly formidable blow to president trump because remember what steve bannon said larry if you can just hive off 3 to 5 percent of the republican electorate it's over for president he is a unpopular president he didn't win the popular vote in 2016 his party wish my state in 2018 and his only numbers that are above 50 percent or the disapproval of his job performance and how he's handled the cove in 1000 crisis so he's never ticked a number that's positive on his behalf above 50 percent. we're almost out of time what do you think trump will do if he loses will he stay in public life is going to do. i think he retreats from public life if he loses i think there are a the loss will be a 1000000 for him he will have been a one term presidential failure and i think will be very hard to start a trump t.v. or degenerate at these rallies and remember you know what happens when the power's gone the dimmer switch hits the the light bulb and it's going from 100 watts down to 5 and so i think he retreats into ignominy if you will. and then to me always great talking with
