you'll see the genius of steve bannon. >> bannon staged a media coup.rump campaign never looked back. >> right now a historic moment. cnn projects donald trump wins the presidency. >> i went to the president and said, sir, you need to get dressed. you've won. i remember bannon standing right there next to me, and bannon was like, yeah, you won, sir. everyone got pretty emotional obviously. i am today. one of those moments i'll never forget. i can see bannon was proud. everyone was really proud. the president walked up to me. good job, brad, you really did a good job, but just don't stand next to me on stage. >> because you're too tall. >> because i'm too tall. >> the last thing donald trump said before being president of the united states is don't stand next to me. >> what was bannon thinking at the time that he created this political revolution and now he'd have the kind of bannon he only dreamed about. >> bannon was chief strategist and senior counsellor to the president of the united states. >> this american carnage stops right here and stops right n

steve bannon is gifted. bannon has taken that war room audience and turned it into what he calls an army. it's an army he's been quietly mobilizing to fight on the humblest of battlefields. >> we're taking action. and that action is we're taking over school boards. we're taking over the republican party to the precinct committee strategy. we're taking over all the elections. >> we're taking over all the elections. there's nothing wrong, of course, with getting the public involved in their political process. in a way, it's laudable. the problem here is what this bannon army might do on those election boards, on these precinct committees inside polling places. >> we're going to take over the election apparatus. american citizens that are volunteering. >> what are these people going to do once they're in charge of the election apparatus? >> it is about who counts the votes. and guess what, we're going to count them. >> who are these precinct committee men and women going to elect in county and state parties? ho

steve bannon will not be doing to prison any time soon. those appeals processes could take months to a year. four months in prison is the sentence. that is less than what the prosecution asked for. they wanted six months. they said they wanted the maximum under the guidelines. they asked for a $200,000 fine and they got $6,500. a significant sentence and the first time in history that someone has been sentenced after being convicted of contempt of congress. that's the sentence here today. four months for steve bannon. >> again, ken, immediate appeal to this? >> yes, he's already appealing. and the real issue on appeal is this question of whether he could use the advice of council defense, whether he should have been able to argue to the jury that he was just following his lawyer's instructions in refusing to comply with the subpoena because they told him that executive privilege applied. the judge disallowed that because the case law in washington, d.c.,'s circuit is that that's not a defense. if you have a lawful subpoena, you have to com

to steve bannon.hich i'm sure will continue as he reacted to his sentence of four months. he seems actually relatively pleased with the outcome and also promising there will be an appeal. and taking the opportunity in the way that i guess steve bannon is saying to tell people to vote on november 8th. so there you have it. we're standing by at this very same moment to hear from president biden. touting what he sees as his administration's economic accomplishments. he's going to be speaking with the white house but his target audience far from there. every voter whose mind isn't made up about the midterm elections, that is his target audience today. later this afternoon president biden heads to delaware to tout his student debt relief plan. millions of americans have already applied for loan forgiveness through that program. jeremy diamond is live at the white house with more on this. jeremy, what are we expecting to hear from the president today? >> reporter: well, president biden has been talking abou

. >>> and we begin this hour with the sentencing hearing now underway for former trump adviser steve bannon as he arrived at the federal court house in washington this morning. bannon spoke briefly thanking the press before attacking the biden administration who was convicted in july of two counts of contempt of congress for failing to comply with a subpoena from the house sixth -- the january 6th committee. he faces a mandatory minimum sentence of 30 days behind bars but federal prosecutors are asking a judge to sentence him to six months in prison and a $200,000 fine. nbc news justice and intelligence correspondent ken delanian is outside the federal court house in washington. ken, good morning. what has happened so far at this hearing? >> reporter: good morning, jose. there have actually been two quite significant developments. so far judge carl nichols ruled in favor of the prosecution that there is, in fact, a mandatory minimum sentence of 30 days. bannon's lawyers had tried to argue that the statute was ambiguous on that point. the judge says, no, in fact, it's a 30-day minimum. the j

steve bannon was sentenced to 4 months.artment of justice official who prosecuted steve bannon is a partisan democrat. what we are seeing is the corruption of the rule of law. some other congressmen attended but never spent a day in jail. steve bannon joins us for his first interview since sentencing. do you agree with matt gates it's partisan? >> 100%. merrick garland has become totally partisan. i believe after november 8 you will see mayor garland impeached. >> tucker: people who say 4 months in prison is not a big deal have never been in prison. do you plan to submit? >> number 1, the judge laid out a number of areas to appeal. i have a great legal team. they are working on the appeals right now. we have appeals on separation of powers and executive privilege and the structure of the january 6th committee. they will work through the appeals process. my sentencing is all pending the appeals process. at the end of the day i have to go to prison by this illegitimate regime, i am prepared to do it but we have a long appeals

steve bannon was scheduled to be sentenced today. he has chosen not to speak inside that courtroom that you see there. however, they have now sentenced steve bannon on two counts of criminal contempt of congress and what they are saying is four months. we have leo terrell, a civil rights attorney, standing by on the phone to talk with me right now. we knew this was coming, leo. i don't think there is any surprise that steve bannon actually would not want to speak on this. he pretty much has not said much on this. let's go to our reporter griff jenkins. >> yeah, just breaking four months. now, the prosecution was asking for six months jail time and $200,000 fine. now a much smaller fine of $6500 it appears from our court reporter inside as well as four months jail time. now, harris, you have to step back a little bit because the last time we saw anyone charged with contempt of congress was rita lavelle in 1983, an ab secure epa agency official from the reagan years. that's why bannon's defense was arguing they should give him some pro

today, the justice department filed a sentencing amount and trump supporter steve bannon, who will be sentenced on friday this week for criminal contempt of congress. and refusing to comply with the subpoena justice department is asking that he'd be fined $200,000 and serve a six month sentence, the justice department told the court that the now-convicted steve bannon, quote, has shown that his true reasons for total noncompliance have nothing to do with his purported respect for the constitution, the rule of law, or executive privilege, and everything to do with his personal disdain for the members of congress sitting on the committee, and their effort to investigate the attack on our country's peaceful transfer of power. not once throughout this episode has a defendant even tried to collect a document produced, and he has never attempted, in good faith, to arrange to appear for deposition. his noncompliance has been complete an unremitting, forces sustained that faith contempt of congress, the defendant should be sentenced to six months imprisonment, the top end of the sentencing gu

and you can see a huge surge right after steve bannon made a call to action. t but don't worry, if you are a 2020 election denier, who doesn't want to actually administer elections, bannon has also been promoting another way to get involved. this is cleanup mitchell, one of former president trump's lawyers, in his effort to overturn the 2020 election. she appeared on bannon's war room program this week, and bannon has had her on a lot, to promote and recruit for what mitchell is describing as a citizens detective agency. you can leave your magnifying glass at home. mitchell claims to have trained more than 20,000 people in election law, so they can observe, document, and report whatever they believe was fraud. as bennett puts it, the plan is to, quote, adjudicate every battle. so, an army election denying poll workers, plus an army of election denying poll watchers, what can go wrong? earlier this week, i sat down with one of the people who will have to deal with all of this, firsthand. his name is don millis, and he's the republican chair of the bipartisan ele

as you mention, the justice department is really arguing to throw the book at steve bannon. they're arguing for the max here. in a new filing this morning, they take on directly this argument you need to get probation, saying that the law clearly states there's a mandatory minimum here of 30 years in jail. they also say this sentence should not be stayed pending appeal because they saban nonhas little success on appeal. but that is a real possibility that this judge will sentence bannon but stay that sentence and allow him to go free while he appeals, the question of whether he could have relied on defense of counsel defense. the justice department is calling for a $200,000 fine. that would be the max. they're doing that because steve bannon refused to provide any financial information to the probation office as part of the sentencing investigation as a normal defendant would. even now he is flouting the will of the court, and today he faces justice. >> what's the best guess from experts? it's hard to read in on the tea leaves on sentencing sometimes, but what is the best es

but he agreed to put that sentence on pause while steve bannon appeals his conviction. or now, bannon remains a free man. i want to update you on one other trump investigation. you know, we told you yesterday that south carolina senator lindsey graham lost an appeal. he was trying to block a subpoena for him to appear before a special grand jury in georgia investigating efforts by donald trump and his allies to overturn the 2020 election. tonight lindsey graham is still fighting that subpoena. he is now appealed to the supreme court, put in an emergency request asking them to block the subpoena. now we wait for the supreme court. >> we will wait and see what they decide. thanks very much, sara. stay with us. i want to bring in cnn's chief political analyst gloria borger and our senior legal analyst, former u.s. attorney, preet. let's get to the historic subpoena actually delivered today to trump's lawyers. does this almost read, and i've read all these pages, does it almost read like a criminal indictment of the former president? >> well, there's a lot in there. there's

steve bannon will join us for his first interview sincstevee the sentence was handed down. bu us.t first, good evening and welcome to tucker carlson. >> and it feels like permanent washington has alwaycker car lid donald trump, but actually that's not true for hat years, trump was considered merely a joke in d.c., a celebrity sideshow. >> people are happy to have himh to the white house correspondents dinner. and that was true., d.c. that was as late as the 2016 primaries. s they were still many primaries. many professiona professional republican people . >> you wouldn't expect people like bill kristol, joe scarborough, people were making highly positive noises about donald trumpe noises and t changed in a moment. it changed on february 13th ofn deba that year at the republican debate in greenville, south carolina. that's when donaldn sout trump criticized the iraq war. quote, obviously, the war in do a iraq was a big, fat mistake, he said. and of course, by that point,n it certainly was obvious that it was a mistake. but that didn't mean you were ae allowed to admit it. wa

steve bannon's case at trial it was very simple. he got a subpoena from the house an and he didn't show up and the people that were serving in the administration might have more broadly and he was convicted. and today he got his sentence. he's going to appeal. there are a lot of legal arguments that could arise and there are a lot of things courts could do. it gets even more complicated whenever this becomes something that donald trump, who was the former president, would be arguing about his time in office. and so we're just going to have to wait and see exactly what happens there in the court. although bannon -- or sorry, the house did get a boost from the judge today saying they are a valid committee and investigation is valid. >> everybody stand by. we're getting breaking news just coming into cnn. i want to bring in cnn supreme court reporter ariane de vogue. >> lindsey graham has just gone to the supreme court with an emergency petition. he's asking the justices to halt a subpoena issued requiring him to appear before that geo

katelyn polantz has those details. >> reporter: steve bannon, that wr long time adviser to president trump, received a sentence from a judge for four months in jail as well as a $6500 fine. bannon was sentenced for contempt of congress, he had been convicted because he did not turnover any documents and never showed up to testify when they subpoenaed him trying to understand any information that bannon had around the election of 2020, the pressure that donald trump was putting on all different parts of the government, and then finally the attack of congress that congress continues to investigate. now, today bannon's team argued that he should not apologize for his actions, that trump was giving him protections, but the judge really didn't ultimately buy it in full, he did end up with a fairly harsh sentence above what the minimum could have been here. and the judge said in my view, bannon has not taken full responsibility for his actions here. still, the judge did allow bannon to exit the court, not prepared to go to jail right away. his team has vowed to appeal and so his sentence is

a chance to live longer. >>> steve bannon has been sentenced to four months in jail.eral judge sentenced the former trump adviser for defying a subpoena from the january 6th committee. he was also convicted for failing to turn over documents investigators demanded. >> prosecutors wanted six months along with a $200,000 fine. bannon though was fined just $6,500, and is vowing to appeal. >>> the environmental protection agency is launching a civil rights investigation into the mississippi water crisis. now the epa will investigate whether the mississippi department of health and the mississippi department of environmental quality discriminated against the majority black population of the city of jackson on the basis of race in the funding of water infrastructure and treatment programs and activities. >> now this follows the naacp's complaint that they intentionally maintained its water infrastructure. they are reacting to the news with the following statement which says, in part, today's decision by the epa is a significant first step in holding the state accountable fo

donald trump's former strategist steve bannon has been sentenced to four months in jail for contemptcongress. he has been speaking outside the courthouse and denied suestions from the prosecution that he was above the law. >> i respect the judge. the sentence he came up with today. it's his decision. totally respectful of this entire process on the legal side. today was my judgment day by the judge. and he stated thawe will have a very vigorous appeals process. there will be multiple areas of appeal. >> that's get back to gary donahue. a very colorful and divisive figure who polarizes opinion in the united states. >> aey element on the right. heas donald trump's chief strategist. the kitty -- the committee believed he would be a free witness. it he was part of a sma group of trump associates that met at the famous willard hotel on january 5. he told his podcast audience to expect trouble on the sixth. they really wanted to talk to him and he refused to supply a single document a has refused to even turn up to answer questions. so he was prosecuted and this is the result of that. he's

they say that steve bannon has said he doesn't want to provide any financial documents to prosecutorstencing review, he actually handed over a lot of information they say about his family, his professional life, his pirnl background, his health. but one thing he won't hand over with her financial documents and in exchange, he said that is fine, fine me the maximum amount now they want to fine him 2 $200,000 and implement that six month sentence at the very high end of the sentencing guidelines here. and interesting in the sentencing report submitted to the court, they wrote this about steve bannon. they said the rioters who overran the capitol on january 6 did not just attack a building, they assaulted the rule of law, upon which this country was built and then they said, by not complying with the january 6 committee subpoena, as steve bannon was convicted of not doing. they said that he exacerbated that assault. abianna, this is going into the court just days in advance of the sentencing on friday. prosecutors saying they want the maximum sentence for him. six months in prison, plus

>> let's be clear, the department of justice won and steve bannon lost. eyes of the law, bannon is a convicted criminal, sentenced to four months in prison. the judge said that he was thinking about deterrents. that's why he sentenced him at the top of the guidelines. bannon's convicted of contempt. that's a perfect way of describing his crimes. the prosecutor said bannon thumbed his nose at democracy. peter, thousands of americans get ordered to show up to legal proceedings. people don't respond to official proceedings and there are no consequences, the legal system would collapse. he appeals, but at some point, even if he wins the appeal, he will have to answer in court. there will just be another trial. >> jeremy, you wrote the book on how steve bannon saw donald trump as the lightning rod to take control of the republican party. help pull back the curtain on how he was exiled by trump and then brought in ahead of the riot. >> like just about anybody in trump world, you are never really out, because ultimately, he will pull you back in or in steve bann

we'll have to see how that plays out. >> we'll talk about steve bannon in just a moment. stand by for us. we want to expand the conversation now. >> we want to bring in another case involving the former president. so we're learning about some of the documents that the fbi recovered from donald trump's mar-a-lago estate in early august. some of those documents include highly sensitive intelligence which we had known. now "the washington post" is reporting specifically that some of those documents involved information with iran, china, sources telling the paper at least one document was about information about iran's missile program. just last hour we spoke with devlin barrett who broke the story. >> some of these documents we're told describe intelligence gathering activities targeting china and obviously china is one of the major u.s. adversaries in the world, and that relationship is very tense particularly on the intelligence front, and if you call back a couple of years, you'll remember that we -- our country recently lost a lot of intelligence assets in the china spac

but the fact that this comes on a day that steve bannon receives his conviction, thumbing his nose ata is not necessarily how it will go for trump because bannon is certainly in a much different position than a former president, but instructive in terms of how long it takes to go from the committee, having someone defy their subpoena and then move forward with criminal charges, through the house, and then referring them to d.o.j., it is a lengthy process. we've seen how long it takes once the gears of the justice system have to start working through this process. and so they don't have time on their hands in the way that they did with bannon or meadows or navarro or any of the other people that they put through criminal contempt charges out of congress and over into d.o.j. this is a subpoena that expires at the end of the year. and look, when we reported that they were even going to move forward on the subpoena in the first place, again, this has been an awareness that almost every member that i talked to has. they knew it wasn't going to be an easy road, that it wasn't just going to

classic steve bannon outside of that courthouse today.e is clearly really eager to come out of this a martyr. >> he's certainly trying to and i think that that that's what his audience is looking for from him because i think one of the interesting things about bannon as a figure in all of this is that he really had lost the support of anyone in establishment washington no matter what party they were a part of. there were republicans on the hill, trump supporters on the hill, who were very frustrated with how he dealt with the intelligence committee, for example, and that kind of went all the way through, you know, up to how the trump -- the former president handled the trial piece and kind of how he was involved in this case. so i don't know if it's going to provide any other lessons for others on the committee for that reason, but certainly bannon is going to try to use it to increase his own notoriety. >> i want to remind folks about why bannon was such a crucial witness for the january 6th committee. it's because he was in the lead up

>> i think the president be more situated here than steve bannon.wyers are really interesting, we will be interesting to see how much liz nor'easter to distinguish him from his friends steve bannon, and try to get him out of the subpoena. at the time that steve bannon was asserting that he could not come before the committee because of executive privilege, he had not worked in the trump white house at that point, alex, for several years. nor did he have an official position with the trump presidential campaign, or any other apparatus that would've put him within trump's close circles a presidential advisements. that is all different where the privilege poles are themself is where the person is being subpoenaed by the committee. i will say there is one of the things happened in pain last week. when there was nothing from them he said, if i was trump's lawyers i'd be very interested. and here is -- what set. he said it was important to him that the committee did not initiate their own occasion against -- then they made a referral to the department of
