and so i, i developed what i the bannon line named after steve bannon. and to show you kind of how campaigns work a little bit is the expected patience for the lincoln project were getting really of control. people were like, are you going to start a new party and can you run new candidate against and you get 50%. and i was like, that's not how this works. and steve bannon in the new york times had said, you know, if we lose 5 to 7% of the republican base. we're to lose. and so i my political team together and i said, i want a press release to go out now and i want everyone, the members on their twitter feed to call this the bannon line and i want madrid. they're saying that's me by the way talking myself. the third person i want to get as much exposure with me saying that is the line. and if we move just 5 to 7%, we're going to win and i called it the bannon line because i didn't want to say it's a bunch of lincoln project. republicans. steve bannon said it's true. and so that, of course, took off and, became a big thing. and steve bannon and i started

and to talk to steve bannon. i thank you for staying up to be with us, vaughn hillyard, thank you so much. >>> joining me now, officer dan hodges who defended the capitol january 6th and who has been campaigning for kamala harris. thank you for being here. officer, what is it like for you, knowing that steve bannon is free and can help the election denial caused not just in the final weeks before the election but also in the weeks and potentially weeks after. >> honestly, i don't give thought to steve bannon. he's out of prison and i wish him all the luck he deserves in his upcoming criminal trial. >> you were punched, kicked, pushed, beaten. hit with your own riot baton in the head, if i'm recalling. you said someone tried to gouge out one of your eyes. i wonder on a personal level tonight what it will be like for you to be at harris' speech on the ellipse, when she's trying to make the case, we believe, that donald trump should not be given a second term for all of the reasons that she's talked about before, bu

just going back to bannon.hat we wanted to ask steve bannon about, which he refused to come in as john just said, was the connectivity between the legal strategy and the people, right? the final step to the extent there was someone who appreciated public opinion and the maga universe's strategy. you've got the lawyers talking about institutional theory but bannon has the ability to couple that with how people on the ground will respond to rhetoric and it's that connectivity between the crowd and the lawyers that i think bannon could have gone a long way to answer. obviously, he didn't want to come in. he didn't come in. he's sitting in federal prison as a result but it's that nexus, the connection. what he tried to bring together, the crowd was the last step when all others failed. bannon could have had real important information about how they intended that very phenomenon. the use of the crowd. >> i'll say to what lisa read, there's another leg to the stool. he's not only in touch with public opinion especial

and so i, i developed what i the bannon line named after steve bannon. and to show you kind of how campaigns work a little bit is the expected patience for the lincoln project were getting really of control. people were like, are you going to start a new party and can you run new candidate against and you get 50%. and i was like, that's not how this works. and steve bannon in the new york times had said, you know, if we lose 5 to 7% of the republican base. we're to lose. and so i my political team together and i said, i want a press release to go out now and i want everyone, the members on their twitter feed to call this the bannon line and i want madrid. they're saying that's me by the way talking myself. the third person i want to get as much exposure with me saying that is the line. and if we move just 5 to 7%, we're going to win and i called it the bannon line because i didn't want to say it's a bunch of lincoln project. republicans. steve bannon said it's true. and so that, of course, took off and, became a big thing. and steve bannon and i started

ryan steve bannon is making it very clear. he's ready to fight.r really any doubt of that wolf cnn was told that even when he was incarcerated, bannon was maneuvering so that he could make a difference in the run-up to the election and beyond. >> and now he has his chance he says four months in prison and didn't break him. it empowered him. tonight, just days before election day, steve bannon is out from behind bars and ready to fire up donald trump's maga base to 2020 election was stolen i will never back off that. >> one of the most influential agitators for trump and a key mobilizer for republicans. the 70-year-old bannon is poised to try to light a fire with potential trump voters in the final stretch before november 5, he might be able to energize some of the younger white males that are infrequent voters who are pro-trump, but rarely show up. they seem to listen to him and he has some special message for them. i'm sure. >> one of the levers bannon will use for that is his provocative podcast, war room, which ban and wasted no time returning

and so i, i developed what i the bannon line named after steve bannon. and to show you kind of how campaigns work a little bit is the expected patience for the lincoln project were getting really of control. people were like, are you going to start a new party and can you run new candidate against and you get 50%. and i was like, that's not how this works. and steve bannon in the new york times had said, you know, if we lose 5 to 7% of the republican base. we're to lose. and so i my political team together and i said, i want a press release to go out now and i want everyone, the members on their twitter feed to call this the bannon line and i want madrid. they're saying that's me by the way talking myself. the third person i want to get as much exposure with me saying that is the line. and if we move just 5 to 7%, we're going to win and i called it the bannon line because i didn't want to say it's a bunch of lincoln project. republicans. steve bannon said it's true. and so that, of course, took off and, became a big thing. and steve bannon and i started

bannon's gold basically.hey haven't stopped calling me anna week i for one, would my savings the few pennies i have a slightly different view of it all. look, there's a lot of bad voices in the maga movement. you, your great piece highlighted a lot of that. that's in every movement in politics. we were in a fractured media landscape. it's a byproduct of the 21st century. yeah, the wacky things they sell, the podcast's ayelet's to do. you should hear this stuff they sell on its bananas, but they like part of my show here, what we said on cnn roman wipes, you looked them up but so there's crazy things, but it's a fractured media landscape for the 21st century. >> it's a byproduct of our free speech society it's going to get worse or better, however, i will say, though that this is, this really is funding. if you look at like what my lindell and saf was doing, mike lindell is using the money he makes on pillows to support a lot of these podcasters, a lot of these influencers who every single day are pushing lies

but when none of that exists, people living in isolation, they go to tucker carlson or steve bannon or fox news. and that feeds the rage, it feeds the paranoia and feeds the prejudice. and as robert putnam, author of the classic of social capital bowling alone argues, isolate asian is isolation is political, extremism thrives and exurbia is a region of isolation, both in the in the or all in physical sense, the socioeconomic sense, but also in the sense in that they're not they're not getting the that could introduce some reality to their increasingly paranoid. well that leads me a question. you know, you mentioned bowling alone. there's i want to talk about nostalgia here and there seems to be kind of a paradox nostalgia in the book which is the one hand there's a sort of maga back before pre-civil rights free women's movement pre lgbtq. on the other hand, they seem very comfortable with a world that's nothing like it was, that's full of box stores and megachurches and no sidewalks and an you know that in which the way things used to be is just no longer, even accessible. and then kin

long time donald trump ally steve bannon is set to be released from prison later today. serving time since he turned himself in on july 1st for failing to comply with a subpoena relating to the january 6th riot at the u.s. capitol. bannon, who's up in connecticut is expected to hold a press conference in new york city today after his release, one before the election. meanwhile, "the washington post" has been hit with a wave of cancellations after the newspaper's owner, billionaire jeff bezos, blocked an endorsement of kamala harris for president. npr is reporting that more than 200,000 people -- 200,000 people have canceled their digital subscriptions as of yesterday afternoon. that's according to two people at the paper with knowledge of internal affairs. the decision not to endorse a candidate has also sparked resignations from some staffers including one member of the "the post" editorial board who explained in a statement, our silence is exactly what donald trump wants. bezos, meanwhile, is now trying to explain his decision to block an endorsement in a piece that he

or not to send a guy like steve bannon who disagrees with you politically to prison. it has to be done in the right way. yes, ma'am. reporter: a political prisoner, so why do you think that you were released then a week before the election? and also in new york, trump just had a rally at m.s.g., and spent time with puerto rican men in prison, do you think those comments by -- were they racist -- steve: can i take the first part of your question first? why was i released seven days before? i think the math works out if you take 120 days from july 1. until today. that's what my sentence was. remember, the bureau of prisons said last week, the bureau of prison admitted i was eligible for part of the first step act. i should have been out on september 19. according to the law of the first step act. now, i'm just there on a misdemeanor for four months. you have individuals that have been there that are rotting -- years after their release date. that today don't know the release date for their families. this is destroying families. the first step act is not an executive ord

maybe his homie steve bannon. but i'm guessing bannon doesn't want to leave prison.ere was so many nazis in prison? what is this utopia?" that's where he is at. oh, and trump will also pardon the january 6th soldiers, right? [boos] because you know, he needs them back for the next january 6th. you don't want all your star players sitting on the bench. and he's being very coy about it, but there's another guy that i think donald trump is definitely going to pardon. >> mr. president, if you were reelected, would you pardon yourself? >> let me just tell you, i said, "the last thing i'd ever do is give myself a pardon." >> uh, i think he's lying! this dude is 100% going to pardon himself! and he should. the pardon is the coolest power a president gets, and every president does it. even my boy, abraham lincoln. he pardoned his wife's sister. which i totally understand. i have a wife. you know how hard it is to argue with them? "oh, so you'll free the slaves but you're not going to free my sister?" [cheers and applause] lincoln sitting there just being like, "she's a bitch

issue of vanity fair the reporter james polk is a profile of trump's former campaign manager steve bannon who you know is more influential than ever in trump world and by extension in the trump campaign even as he awaits the end of his federal prison sentence but he writes right now that if you have enjoyed what steve bannon has brought to trump politics so far all of the destroy the administrative state stuff and we need a multipolar white world led by russia and take it as a badge of honor if you are called that and if you enjoyed that then you will love what his priority is right now for trump getting into the white house for a second term. the new plan and the new big idea we are getting from steve bannon and the whole wing of the trump movement which includes jd vance got a big no idea we are getting for the trump second term is the abandonment of the dollar. he wants to end the american currency. he is working on the end of the dollar empire. that would be quite a business decision. who in the business world is making a business decision about this next election thinks that the smar

steve bannon. your thoughts on the attacks on you?hey have gotten, you know, quite pervasive. used to be once in a while steve bannon would pay me a backhanded compliment by saying, you know, i was such a better lawyer than the lawyers that republicans had in 2020. it feels like in recent days the attacks from him and from others on the right have gotten much more frequent. they are also, you know, a little bit more unhinged in some quarters. but i take it as a sign that the other side knows they are losing. and the other side does want to normalize, you know, attacking, for example, a lawyer who is doing nothing other than trying to ensure that everyone can vote and we have free and fair elections. the bigger point though, i think, that you are making is important, and it's something that frustrates me a lot with a lot of the media coverage, which is that oftentimes i am asked, well, you know, donald trump will claim that he won the election when he didn't, and i'm thinking, well, like, but shouldn't that be an extraordinary thing? t

bannon is also expected to resume his podcast later today. he is asking a full appeals court to overturn his convictions after they were upheld by a previous appeals court panel. 636 for you this morning and we are now just one week away from election day. here we go. scott mcgrew you're reminding us that's not when voting starts. it's when voting ends. right at the end of election day. it is over tens of millions of americans have already turned in their ballot. next tuesday is the last chance to vote, either by dropping off a ballot or showing up in person. used to be we all went to the polls on election day. these days, many americans get it done early. looking at the campaigns this morning, the trump campaign trying to distance itself from some of the speakers at trump's madison square garden rally, particularly the speaker who called puerto rico a floating island of garbage. while puerto rico is part of america, it does not have a vote in the presidential election. but americans of puerto rican descent are going to be important in places

bannon is also expected to resume his podcast later today. he is asking a full appeals court to overturn his convictions. this is after they were upheld by a previous appeals court panel. turning back to our decision 2024 coverage, state assemblyman evan low just picked up a key endorsement in his quest to fill the congressional seat left vacant by anna eshoo. governor newsom is now backing him in the hotly contested bay area district 16 political race. low is running against former san jose mayor sam liccardo. both are democrats. nbc bay area political analyst larry gerston says the endorsement comes as a bit of a shock. you rarely go ahead in an intraparty contest and pick one, leaving the other out. i mean, it's sort of like an unwritten law, if you will. gerston says low's opposition of proposition 36th may have been a factor here. it aims to increase punishments for retail theft and drug crimes. governor newsom also opposes it. we reached out to liccardo's campaign, which, in response to the endorsement says, quote, sam is endorsed by th

trump is into the end, steve bannon added. counting on giuliani did not turn out so well. this brief includes another example of giuliani's but darling and clumsy cell phone use. -- butt dialing and clumsy cell phone use. all of these new details in this report and you can find it for yourself. it is 165 pages heavily redacted. this is john in louisiana, republican. good morning. caller: there are a couple of issues on this thing this report to my knowledge, untith is presented in a court of law under somebody saying this is the truth, the whole truth, it is no more than the national enquirer. it w sled for a reason and th smith puts it outnyway. to me this will be adjudicated. right nowt just throwing mud and i don't put muchta in it. you can read all of tho fcy things. the truthfulness of it is such -- is suspect to me. host: this is his argument he would layout at trial. this is if this went to trial, this is what the government would be arguing from the special counsel. caller: i understand that. however, it is not being presented in a trial. it is opinion. if it is at

i think bannon would appreciate it and mcluhan would have been mortified, but i'd be mortified. but in any event, i think that there something going on there with the, i guess, the mcluhan approach to our time magazine. and time did lean hard in for eisenhower at luce's explicit direction. some of the staff members did not want to be as supportive of eisenhower. but luce recognized that an opportunity in eisenhower and he wanted to have a who he was friendly with in stark contrast to roosevelt, but whom he hated and he, even after roosevelt died, lucille said, it is my duty to on hating him even beyond the grave. he was still hating roosevelt, but time did suffer as a result. and there was a joke. i lay out in the book, and i think you noted that there are many jokes in the book. i even have an appendix of all the jokes that i found that were told by or about ceos. and that in itself is, i think, worth the price of admission. but the about time was that time at this time was bipartisan because half the time it praised the republicans and the other half it bashed the democrats. i
