he replaces reince priebus. the white house

scaramucci wanted reince priebus out. bannon wanted scaramucci out. kelly comes in and pushes him out. so i think one of the things that's not being noted today as much is steve bannon right now is in a very interesting position where he has sort of gotten what he wanted, sort of the survivor at the top of that cast of characters in the west wing. >> and let's turn to our resident expert on bannonology, joshua green. it is remarkable that steve bannon -- i mean scaramucci came in very clearly gunning for priebus and gunning for bannon. >> exactly. >> priebus is gone. bannon is still standing, scaramucci gone. he is a a much more effective infighter than scaramucci anticipated. >> i think that's right. i think in this case he didn't actually have to do a whole lot besides hold his tongue and keep quiet. i don't know any reporters that managed to get bannon on the phone. he is smart enough to step back, recognize that scaramucci is blowing himself up and setting a land speed record for political self- self-emmollation. >> the white house itself could le

interview with a reporter at the new yorker" he uses vulgar terms to describe the chief of staff, reince priebus, the chief strategist steve bannon. we know initially the president was okay with this. he didn't mind it the shots across the bow particularly on priebus. buts in a president mindful of the media coverage. we know in the days following he grew less and less happy with the negative tone of the coverage of this. so did important people around him including ivanka, jared kushner, steve bannon. when john kelly named chief of staff right from that moment it was very clear that scaramucci -- was mot going to continue to have this sort of access to the president and then as of today no access to the president at all. and at least not in his white house job. >> so vivian, is it fair to judge the administration of chief of staff kelly by looking to see what happens or not tomorrow morning between, say, 7 and 10:00 a.m.? if twitter is silent, if america is safe and if it's a quiet morning, quiet tuesday, midsummer morning in america, do you think there will have been change enacted. >> well, j

so, now, obviously, because kelly's in, previous chief of staff reince priebus is out. estion is, though, why did he get the axe? >> the final straw for president trump with priebus was the fact that health care vote went down in defeat last week. this is a big priority for the president. reince priebus' selling point, he said he was the person to get healthcare over the finish line to overhaul obamacare, that he had all these relationships on capitol hill and, of course, it didn't get done. >> trevor: really? healthcare failed because of reince? why do they keep bringing in new people as if we don't know what the real problem is? it's, like, drunk is a tornado and the white house keeps hiring new maids. why isn't this place ever clean? i'm just going to neaten up! ( laughter ) what's worse is how poor reince priebus got the news. >> a "the washington post" reporter tweeted when air force one touched down friday afternoon in andrews air force base priebus senior policy advisor and media director loaded into a suburban but moments later miller and scavino hopped out of th

and by firing reince priebus he has severed his connection to the republican party. not just in terms of the rnc and priebus' chairmanship, but we're talking about the donor community, the activist community. reince priebus has spent five years making sure the republican tent, as it were, was cohesive in a way it had not been. it is not just critical that reince priebus has lost this chief of staff and lost this major connection and link to the republican party but he now seems to be embracing this idea of almost try anlating against the party itself. and seems to be very much warming up to this idea or road testing this idea already of turning the base against some of these republican politicians whom they sent to washington. and in a way, almost testing them, forcing them to choose between the president who is a republican technically, and their own elected officials back home. >> there is a lot there to react to. let's talk about reince in the rear-view mirror. kind of ex reince facto. as he looks back with the kelly era beginning. if kelly asked him advice what do

chief of staff reince priebus, gone. finally today, steve bannon. >> juan: ticket that her idea of how the political class in washington, bret baier. is this a reset moment for the white house? >> good evening, guys. i think greg was right, if this is going to be some major pivot for president trump, they've been looking for it for a long time. it's likely not going to be. president trump is going to be president trump. that said, it's an eye-opener. the word was that he was on his way out and the administration, the president had made that the decision with general kelly's guidance a couple of weeks ago. bannon is telling people that he offered his resignation august 7th. and that today was going to be the last day. it's a change. it doesn't take away the uniqueness of this president or the firepower of steve bannon, who now in his words, has a lot more weapons in his old job as the executive of breitbart news. >> juan: i heard you say you thought this was the worst week in the trump presidency. is that right? >> i did

certainly according to the reports, reince priebus was present for a lot.hat will bring in the issue of executive privilege. weather or not communications that took place between reince priebus and others are able to be uncovered through the questions that the investigators are going to ask. >> let me go to carol anne, we got a great story for you about this guy papadapolous. how about i set a a meeting. why russia, russia, russia? why is there always -- what's the chicken and the egg answer. were the russians telling this young guy, we'd like to meet or did he come out of nowhere and say, why not the argentinians, why not the cubans. why are they always with the russians? >> that's the huge takeaway from the little sneak peek we've gotten into this trove of e-mails, why the frequency of discussions about meeting with the russians. now, i want to keep in mind -- >> why would they want to meet with the russians? >> it looks at least in one instance we have clear evidence that a group, an ngo that's tied to the putin government, and to the kremlin, that that

reince priebus ousted by scaramucci then ousted by kelly.e news and preyed on the rivalry between scaramucci and priebus to get scaramucci to play along. >> to all of this, i guess scaramucci doesn't -- the real scaramucci doesn't work for the white house anymore but -- >> neither does real or fake reince priebus. they have all been let go. >> is the white house issuing a statement? >> sarah huckabee said we take all cyber related issues seriously and are looking into the incidents further. the real question is, how did this happen? i think the most worrisome won is tom bosser, the cyber security expert respondsed with his personal e-mail. it shows how easy it is for pranksters to get details. imagine if it was a hacker. >> do we know it's not? do we know it's not? >> we were told this person is a prankster who has done it to other high profile banking officials. he's on twitter and tweeted the exchanges. he said it was all for levity, not for anything. >> meanwhile, trying to line up fake reince priebus. dan, thanks so much. >>> clear your

reince priebus, you see sean spicer. press secretary, july 21st gone and you see general michael flynn. the former national security advisers, only lasting until february 13th. gone. when you see that kind of departure, so quickly, in a new administration what does that say to you? >> look, it's reflects everybody of the president's management style. not only did not run a large institution, public company, but also that he basically believes, and i think it's very clear from his career, he believes chaos benefits him nap he is strengthened when there is unease around him. and when lines are uncertain and positions are uncertain. somethingals larger. steve bannon and reince priebus were supposed to represent the book ends marrying with a populist nationalism that bannon embodied and the administration really struggled i think to make that balance. you see the tension on all sorts of issues like foreign policy, trade. above all i think, what you've seen over the first six months, the president abandoning his, one of his c

is that the president of the united states can fire reince priebus. i don't understand this bizarre -- oh, no, no, no, they brought in mooch to get rid of priebus. you just fired your staff. >> i think part of the president's m.o. is to see whether letting two camps has anything free in the process. reince priebus from the beginning he has weak leverage and penned in by limited, you know, limited powers and such. just completely powerless to do anything. basically once scaramucci had set what he said. the fact he was bolden enough to say it was the the 99% of the problem. . >> chris, to get to your issue, cultivating an attitude in which there is constantly public combat for people who work for him, his favor, and he reaches out even does this. or walks away to let everyone interpret it. that the mode of management produced by the person at the top, right? >> absolutely. in six months we've gone from no drama obama to captain chaos. and it would be easier for us who served in the obama administration, we have serious issues in our country and world fac

reince priebus, chief of staff, when that tape broke during the campaign last year, reince priebus told him to leave the race. i think donald trump believes even within his inner circle, the people that were there during the campaign, the people who have been there during the presidency, the people who are not part of his family, even they would sell him out. i think that's what he thinks. even they would sell him out in a moment like that and the only people who weren't ready to d that, this is how he think, were his daugtder, his son-in-law and the family, and i think that looms large in every moment. why does he lean on them and trust them, defer to them? not because he thinks the strategy works. it's because they think they believe in him in a way nobody else around him does. >> we have to it there. i guess i would say if you sat down with extraordinary leaders through history, they would not say that blind loyalty was the secret to their success. >> i'm not making the argument. i'm just trying to explain why i think it happens. that's all. >> all right. then you make that point. i

that certainly undermined reince priebus. whether john kelly can keep that kind of order and maintain that type of order, i think that is going to be a very tall ask, even for a general. >> there are also new details emerging about how the scaramucci dismissal transpired. what do we know at this point? >> reporter: from what we understand last week, we were hearing from sources that the president was almost giving scaramucci an atta boy. you know, people were calling scaramucci the mini me, or the mini mooch for president trump, because of the way he was dressing down reince priebus. somebody that the president has obviously lost confidence in, lost patience with. but slowly but surely from what we understand from talking to sources, the president viewed these headlining about scaramucci as being very negative, because not only were they overshadowing things going on here at the white house, they were overshadowing the president of the united states himself. and from what we understand from talking to sources, scaramucci talk

believe it or not, when reince priebus was first elected chairman of the republican national committee, in 2011, the very first scandal that he had to deal with as chairman was a donald trump scandal. trump was going out claiming that barack obama had not been born in the united states and the interview click -- clip you show was previous -- was his first interview. he is confronted about what is clearly a lie about barack obama's birth, and yet you see him unwilling to kind of stand up and assert himself and say there is no room for that kind of talk in our party, it is not true. i think that his weakness in the clip and afterward is one of the reasons why the wii public and party was unable to stop donald trump from storming his way through the republican nomination and winning the presidency. host: lisa in kentucky, democrat. caller: good morning. andink that donald trump steve bannon identify with each other more on the prejudice level. i don't think steve bannon -- he wants a separatist society. donald trump brings in foreign workers to work his motels and hotels and these high-te

him and reince priebus, at the end of reince priebus's tenure, he was basically in the bunker with steve bannon and a few mid-level communications staffers. there was really no one else defending him. and together they were scheming to undermine. first it was to block scaramucci. and once scaramucci was in, it was working with various people to get messages to the president that he was unacceptable. they saw "the new yorker" interview as a great opportunity to try to undermine him. and bannon, my understanding, from sources close to him, is that he's delighted by today's news. >> i'm sure he is. i mean, because otherwise, he was called a contortionist in not a nice way. who likes that. jonathan swan, national political reporter with axios, thank you very much. >>> all right, the thing about making big change, like hiring a new chief of staff, is that it does create other staffing opportunities and changes inside the white house, like firing scaramucci. in this case, hiring this particular chief of staff has raised a bigger staffing question outside the white house. and that story is next

comments in a magazine interview last week in which he attacked mr trump's then chief of staff reince priebus, who's been replaced by john kelly. los angeles has formally been chosen to host the 2028 summer olympic games in a deal that virtually assures paris will hold the games four years earlier. the president of the international olympic committee said he welcomed the decision of los angeles to accept hosting the later games. president nicolas maduro of venezuela has said that personal sanctions imposed on him by the us are a sign of desperation and hate. mr maduro said he refused to take orders from foreign, imperialist governments. the sanctions were imposed after sunday's controversial vote for a new constituent assembly. now on bbc news, hardtalk. welcome to hardtalk, i'm stephen sackur. donald trump promised to be a disruptive president. right now the thing he's disrupting the most is his own white house team. he now has a new chief of staff and a new director of communications, but what he seems unable to shift is the sense of a presidency in crisis, at odds with republicans in congr

, some kind of comment on his relationship with reince priebus.ur knowledge, is scaramucci still going to have that direct personal route to the president or, as in most presidencies, is the new chief of staff going to be the gatekeeper who controls all access by others to the president? the chief of staff was literally sworn in about 52 minutes ago. so he is setting in place the procedures by which he will run the white house internally. where anthony fits into that, you'd have to ask general kelly or talk to anthony, but let's give him more than 52 minutes and find out later in the week. let's talk about the relationship between the white house and the us congress. would you accept that on a series of different matters, from the failure of a key plank of mr trump's policy agenda, that is the repeal of affordable healthcare, so—called obamacare, to the congressional reaction to mr trump's comments about the attorney general, the republicans in the us congress are deeply out of sympathy with and alienated from donald trump today? no, i look at it

after sean spicer hits the ejector seat, scaramucci's first task was to get rid of reince priebus, and get him fired. and now priebus' replacement, john kelly, has fired scaramucci. it all makes perfect sense. joining us now is john swan. what a hot mess. explain to us first of all, this sort of question that was left hanging in the briefing today. does anthony scaramucci still have a job at the export/import bank? i'm not clear on that. >> yeah, nor am i. they left it open, friends of his believe that he's going to be looked after in some way, shape, or form, but i don't know what that means. i know that he wants a job in the mirpgs. again win just have no confirmation that he has one. >> yeah, so walk us through how this happened. because, obviously, general kelly came in and wanted to have some authority. what did it come down to in terms of him being able to get rid of the newly hired mr. scaramucci? >> well, i think you have to go back to thursday night with ryan lizza, the conversation that anthony scaramucci had with him, where he suggested that steve bannon do various things to

one was run by reince priebus. he's gone. one was run by steve bannon. he's gone. and now jared kushner is the only one remaining, and his favorites, you know, gary cohen, dina powell, general mcmaster are there. and that he continues to pull the strings. and this source believes, in fact, that jared kushner is a more powerful person in the white house right now than general kelly. >> general kelly himself who is the white house chief of staff, you want to elaborate on that, gloria? >> well, he believes that jared is working with kelly, but that jared kushner and his wife ivanka have much more access to the president, can have the president's ear, whether it's at bedminster, whether it's upstairs in the residence, in ways that nobody else can at that white house. and, you know, that remains -- you know, that will remain, wolf, because the president is loyal, most of all, to his family. >> yeah, very, very interesting, gloria. caitlyn, you've got more information coming in as well. >> yes. we're learning more as we said a second ago, the chief strategist of the whit

if in fact that's true, reince priebus -- and i should say reince priebus is a consummate professionaly diligent and takes his work very seriously. i think director mueller wants to sit down and say what do you know. >> a report that the president is turning on steve bannon, might fire him, suspects him of being behind some of the leaks from the white house, how would that be received by the president's space? >> i'm not surprised at all. look at breitbart, look at some of the stuff that's coming out of the west wingo -- >> not surprised that it's banning leaking or that the president might be turning on him? >> that the president might be turning on him. pennsylvania avenue is littered with so many bodies of turning on the president. >> well, it has been said before, loyalty is a one-way street in this administration. adrian, robert, thank you guys so much. that's a wrap for me this hour. i'm alex witt, thanks for watching. more inside on yesterday's violence in charlottesville. joy reid next from washington. rethink your allergy pills. flonase sensimist allergy relief uses unique mis

they wrote, after general kelly was selected and reince priebus was deposed, quote, the shuffling of unless mr. trump accepts that the white house problem isn't mr. priebus, it's him. do you agree that president trump in how disciplined he's been or not been is part of the problem? >> i think that's part of who he is, so i think if you're the chief of staff you need to understand the style of the principal, the approach of the principal, and you have to make a structure that works for that. what i said before was the three-person structure doesn't work. and that's not just an aside, that's the key to it. now you have one person the president has said who is in charge from a staff perspective, and i think the big key for general kelly is not only to have that empowerment from the president, which he seems to now have, and also jim baker said it very well, he said this to me during the transition when i interviewed him and he said it recently. the chief of staff has to remember to be staff and not chief. ufr you have to work with your staff, make them feel comfortable and let them know

he is very different in that way then the reince priebus, who very much was sort of born and bred of the republican party. think because he is gone, we are going to see is mike pence more and more take on that role as the administration's conduit to republican members of congress at least until kelly is able to build some of those relationships. >> jon: james homan and caitlin healy burns, thank you very much. we will found out in the coming days whether ivanka trump is working alongside general kelly or somewhere a little further down the white house hierarchy. also waiting for the white house briefing set to start at the top of the hour. we will take you there live when that begins. molly? >> causing some damage in the sunshine state. as the worst of it over? more where that storm is heading next. plus lots of pressure on g.o.p. lawmakers even after last week's health care vote failed on a set of floor. it was some replicant senators say it's time to move on to other issues. >> build health care and we have 50 votes for something. health care is not dead. the issue is not going awa

blasted then chief of staff reince priebus. >>> reince priebus is [ bleep ] paranoid schizophrenic. he's going to -- [ bleep ]. >> bill shine, a former co-president of fox news is rumored to be in the running as scaramucci's replacement. new yorker printed portions of the interview last week. since then, scaramucci was fired. and reince priebus retired as chief of staff. off the record in spirit. >>> owner of dunkin donut in new york city will apologize in person to two police officers who say they were denied service at his franchise. the officers were in plain clothes, but had badges and pistol on belt. they say the clerk at the counter ignored them. took customers in line behind them and reportedly said i don't serve cops. the mayor condemned the incident. >> i don't know the details and i wasn't there. if it's what you described, it's someone being stupid and unfair to our police officers. >> the owner did call one of the police officers to apologize. he now wants to meet with boat both of them in person to make amends. company has not said if the worker will face any sort of di

down on that to some extent since he has become chief of staff to president trump, replacing reince priebusast with orbits around the president trump, first and foremost you have the president-elect at ric reince priebus and said we were supposed to get health care reform and that failed. he looks at steve bannon and said we were supposed to get conservative support and that failed. let us note that president trump is scheduled to go to arizona and the white house pushing out a press release just moments ago about that. i think we will be hearing about sheriff joe arpaio heading into that rally. vonnie: he is in camp david. avin, think about it for second. if it does happen and we should note that it has not happened yet, but according to this report that has come out that the decision has been made and that president trump is going to fire steve bannon as chief strategist. they're just talking about when and how to do it. if that does happen, would that convince some of the gop senators, particularly bob corker in the last couple days saying that this president is not competent in this pos

now, let's get back to reince priebus. despite their differences, he and reince are close. >> if you want to talk about the chief of staff, we have had odds. we have had differences. when i said we were brothers from the podium, that's because we're rough on each other. some brothers are like cain and abel. other brothers can fight with each other and get along. i don't know if this is repairable or not. >> stephen: "yeah, who knows? some brothers are like cain and abel, some are like mario and luigi. okay? who knows what will happen. will we go down a pipe to save the princess, or will i bash his head in with a rock and then lie to god about it?" who knows. am i my priebus's keeper? ( cheers and applause ) am i my priebus's keeper? who knows, who knows? the question is: reince priebus, why are you sticking around and taking this abuse? just leave, and enjoy the easy life on spicer island. ( laughter ) and the mooch isn't just handling the leaking. yesterday, he met with bbc's senior driveway correspondent to explain just

meanwhile, donald trump tweeted about reince priebus, who he fired.wrote, "we accomplished a lot together, and i am proud of him." which that's two lies in one sentence. [ laughter ] reince priebus. this poor guy. it will be easier for reince priebus to go into a souvenir shop and find a novelty license plate with his name on it than it will to find a job after this. [ laughter ] and the staff of the white house is said to be rattled. but even with all the tumult trump's moving ahead full speed. so we slowed him down for tonight's edition of "drunk donald trump." [ slowed-down music ] [ slowed-down speech ] >> we're able to start nipping it in the bud. we've nipped it in the bud. let's call it start. nipping it. in the -- in the bud. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: nipping it in the bud and smoking it. this is good. the president may have trouble selling his agenda but he has plenty of other stuff to sell. i got a box the other day. we signed up for a monthly club. it's kind of like a fruit of the month club. but this is a trump version of that. we

he formed this alliance with reince priebus. you saw the domino effect where sean spicer was gone.n hung on for a while. but you have seen a lot of push back from some of the people close to the president suggesting that -- again, go back to april when he was first feuding with kushner, this idea that he -- trump has always chased that. but bannon is very clearly framing it that way, that he was the key driver, that if these things don't happen it is because of his absence. in reality a lot of these thing wills be pretty heavy lift. i do think steve bannon is correct in making the case that he was the person who had really driven the president early in moves like the travel ban. >> great to hear from you. a lot more to come on this. really appreciate it. the man who conducted that controversial issue with bannon that a white house official says left president trump furious. he is the co-editor of the american prospect and mark preston to digest more of this. did you get the sense at the time that what bannon was telling you could bring him down? >> well, i got the sense of somebody

brought himanka into destroy reince priebus. he did that. don't think they imagine it would be as spectacularly controversial as it was, but he is a very divisive figure. a lot of people on the press team couldn't stand him and did not want to work under him. a lot of other people we were hearing from after the interview came out, one senior official said to me, if this kind of behavior is condoned, it really makes me question whether this is the kind of faith want to work -- place i want to work. getting rid of him was an important cultural signal to the west wing. charlie: reince priebus had thought of joining the white house staff for a while. the other question that looms over general kelly arriving is can he say no to donald trump? is he at long last the one person that can say no, and then ?erhaps influence his behavior is there some encouragement that maybe he can? >> i don't know. that is the big question right now. it is whether trump is willing to be disciplined and tamed. chances are over the long run, probably not. he's 71 years

reince priebus left. general kelly in. more order, routine, structure in the white house but the president is still the president. colleagues in the "new york times" writing wednesday, mr. trump's venting on tuesday came despite from support from his staff. instead of taking their advice to stop talking about the president, unburned himself with what he vies admiral correctness in favor of take no prisoners. the president is the president. can we just stop any conversation that whether this person leaves or this person comes? that this is going to change? >> yes, we can stop that conversation. it doesn't make an impact fop your earlier question, why did the president have to have his advisers there? jo even think he thought about it. he was singularly focused in the aftermath of charlottesville and media criticism and republicans criticism. i don't want to psychoanalyze too much but doubt he was concerned about the impact on gary cohen or elaine chao standing up there with him. >> we're laughing, because this is not new an

ultimately met, but you can rest assured know that mueller will look into whether that meeting between reince priebus manafort occurred and ask both manafort and priebus for any details on that. >> if we were to read the tea leaves and lord knows journalists would never engage in something like that. would manafort, do we look at him and think he's the crux of all or a substantial part of the mueller case even though here his name appears in an exculpatory manner, manafort was saying no, that wouldn't be right, wouldn't be prudent to meet with the russians? >> yeah, i think so. for a couple reasons, brian. first of all, obviously manafort was at the top of the campaign despite efforts that suggest that manafort played a limited role for a limited time in the words of former secretary sean spicer, manafort was there at a pivotal moment. he does have ties to both serious russian players and people who are very closely allied to the putin regime including viktor yanukovych, the former president of the ukraine. and there are things that have come into the sites that don't directly relate to any coordinat

reince priebus, jared kushner, gary cohen and others.ith bannon out of the white house, people say, who knows? likely they will not attack president trump but likely other people in the administration. does that matter? >> well, it does matter. you want every friend you can get when trying to govern and at some point in time this president has to try to work with the legislative branch and anytime there's chaos or someone's stirring the pot that makes it more difficult and we've seen that by following just one vote show on health care. every vote matters. if we can cause a little chaos, it stops not only what the president is allowed to get done but what the people of this country sent him there to do. >> talk about charlottesville a second. kaitlan a remarkable moment on "good morning america" today with susan bro, mother of heather heyer, visually killed by 0 domestic terrorist, likely one of those racists marching. this is what she had to say about the phone calls and whether or not she would talk to president trump. roll that tape. >
