this is a hoax this is a witch shuns there's nothing to this russia investigation and now even steve bennett says no no this was actually treasonous so the president has responded with an official statement rather than one of his infamous tweets let's take a closer look at that response he said steve bannon has nothing to do with me or my presidency when he was fired he not only lost his job he lost his mind and he went on steve spend his time at the white house leaking false information to the media to make himself seem far more important than he was he was really in a one on one meeting with me and only pretends to have had influence coston these two men were at one time close political allies now the president is doing his best to discredit his former chief strategist is he worried. yes he probably is and especially the people around on the trump quite worried that is why they've put their heads together and they crafted this statement to make sure that donald trump doesn't to shoot from the hip and tweet whatever comes to his mind on this still of the language in that statement is pretty

kennedy institute here in berlin or in thanks for joining us in the studio this feels like steve bennett's downfall yet first he was banished from the white house now he's stepping down from breitbart what happens well gosh what happened loose lips sink ships and i think it's you know when you look for tragic falls of these less than tragic figures. what you know ambition pride and i would see pride here he spoke to a correspondent and spoke far too much for his own good so that he became a liability for his own cause some of those comments appearing in michael wolf's book fire and fury that has made the news or made the headlines of the past few days is this a win then for president trump i don't really know bannon in so many ways is like rest sputum and it took more than a single attempt on risk putin's life to remove him from the calculations date back to the time of the russian revolution here bannon is down i would never count someone like him out though what we see in the case of bannan as they say money talks and b.s. walks reach rebecca. oh gosh i forgot her last name from the. mer

who had backed the wrong candidate and now came out this book and a lot so a lot of quotes from steve bennett are not really flattering for trump and i think trump had enough. since being sacked steve benen did appear before this did appear to have been loyal to the trump course so this this latest falling out must be all the more dramatic for the us. yeah absolutely it is a major shift and we don't see how this works out i mean there is a civil war going on within the republican party the old establishment the old conservative establishment against a more nationalist populist wing which is of course led by the on the trump who has basically taken over the party and then does steve benen who is definitely one. of those people who want a more nationalist and more populist agenda still and he will continue to do that he will be supporting candidates to the very rights of the political spectrum in the upcoming midterm elections or the election process within the republican party before that so. yeah this is a major thing because now some parts of this nationalist movement might actually position

possible signs of dementia news outlets have treated that with caution and no one had ever quoted steve bennett trump's former advisor describing meetings with russian contacts as treasonous before and that led to a series of attacks from trump and bannon's ouster from breitbart news one of the online voices of the american right. journalists covering the white house either did not find those stories or if they did their editors chose not to publish mainstream news outlets like to say they hold power to account but they also tend to build bridges and burning those bridges can mean losing future access that can come back to burning them early on some journalists decided to sacrifice their integrity for access kind of had the same idea he went in there to do x. as journalism and then realized you could burn his bridges at the end of this by publishing the result so i think that if anything we should be having a broader conversation about what the purpose of access journalism is a government that wants to essentially function as an autocracy a government that routinely attacks the press and threat
