Steve Bannon joins me on today's show to talk about all things foreign and domestic as the Trump administration celebrates another historic week. President Trump ended his trip to the middle east in the United Arab Emirates. The Burj Khalifa was adorned with red, white and blue lights as U.A.E.'s President Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan gave President Trump the country's "highest civilian honor." Bannon unpacks the historic moves President Trump made in the middle east in a new vision for peace and a potential revisit of the Abraham Accords. As trade talks with China have progressed, Bannon reminds us of the list of abuses of agreements in the past by China and why it is important that the U.S. decouple itself from the Communist controlled country. Bannon correctly predicted the appointment of Pope Leo XIV and gives us insight as to what kind of Pope he will be. Here at home, Bannon and the war room are making their picks for the 2026 mid-terms and have targeted the un MAGA Senators he wants to see replaced. President Trump has time to decide who should be the new National Security Advisor and Rubio should wear the dual hats till the end of the year. Even though President Trump has sincerely expressed he is not running in 2028, he will be called upon by the nation to lead us once again, after his historic 2nd term comes to an end.

SEASON 3 EPISODE 126: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: Buyer's Remorse on an unprecedented scale. New polling from the new site of the last chief of 538, Elliott Morris: If the 2024 election were held again today, Harris would win by FIVE. And Trump isn't just underwater he's DROWNING: Net -16 on Approval. STRONGLY disapprove scores twice as highly as strongly approves. Net -34 on his economic decisions. Net -32 on inflation. Net -21 on tariffs and trade. Net -20 on cutting programs. Net -17 on the economy. Net -16 on foreign policy. Net -16 on health care. Net -16 on education. And the Democrats are up in the House midterms by +6. If this were this Obama or Clinton or Carter the right wing press would be DEMANDING the president either fire his entire cabinet or resign. ALSO: Democrats eviscerate Kristi Noem on Kilmar Abrego Garcia and she slanders him by calling him a terrorist. Look in a mirror, witch. BUY mirrors, Chief Justice Roberts and A.G. Sulzberger. Two of the most guilty perpetuators of Bothsidesism point fingers at everybody but themselves because we're all trying to find the guy who did this and as the commentator Darth notes, these two guys are fighting over who gets to wear the Hot Dog Suit. PSAKI PSHOW PSTINKS: MSNBC is trying to spin otherwise, but her ratings in the Maddow slot are, simply, not survivable. B-BLOCK (39:35) SPORTSBALLCENTER: What the heck? A White Sox fan gets elected Pope and five days later White Sox tragic anti-hero Shoeless Joe Jackson is suddenly made eligible for the Hall of Fame? (44:19) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: I'm sure it's delicious and healthy but doesn't a plant-based product called "Protein Puck" make you think of the movie "Soylent Green"? Politico thinks it's got any remaining credibility. Andrew Cuomo thinks HE'S got any remaining credibility and is accused of being backed by MAGA. C-BLOCK (54:10) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: If you want to skip this, please do. But I have a story about an inexplicable hockey card, why they made it in the first place, and why it took 40 years for me to obtain it. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Habemus Papam! Leone XIV, primo papa statunitense, è già al centro del dibattito globale. Chi è Robert Francis Prevost, l'uomo che unisce radici latine e passaporto a stelle e strisce? Tra il richiamo alla Rerum Novarum, le accuse di essere "anti-MAGA" da Steve Bannon e il possibile dialogo con il cattolico JD Vance, il suo pontificato promette scintille.

First, the Vatican chose a Bulwark pope, not an AR-15 loving, immigrant-hating pope. Then, in a major blow to Steve Bannon, Trump pulled his nominee for U.S. attorney in D.C.—forcing the avid TV watcher in the Oval Office to turn to Fox News for the 23rd time to help fill his administration—this time with Jeanine Pirro. And in the North Carolina Supreme Court race, the Stop the Steal candidate finally conceded to his Democratic opponent seven months late. Plus, Trump is acting like a Soviet central planner, the reconciliation bill fight is starting to look ugly, and the economy proves yet again that it does not lie. Amanda Carpenter joins Tim Miller for the weekend pod.

One of the most powerful Republicans in the country has been called a teddy bear. Grover Norquist, the head of the activist group Americans for Tax Reform, certainly doesn't come across as an anarcho-capitalist power player. Recently, Norquist has waged a vendetta against “traitors” in the White House — staffers who are reportedly considering raising taxes on the rich, which may include Vice President J.D. Vance, and the architect of Trump's first presidential campaign, Steve Bannon.On the finale of “Tax Revolt,” senior podcast producer Arjun Singh sits down with Norquist to understand: Is the antitax movement's grip on the Republican party as strong as ever?Want more?

In this fast-paced Friday edition of Badlands Daily, CannCon and Chris Paul cover a tidal wave of headlines that span global geopolitics, U.S. legal drama, and institutional hypocrisy. The show opens with a breakdown of Pope Leo XIV's historic election, the first American Pope, and dives deep into his past controversies, ideological leanings, and unexpected prediction by Steve Bannon. Trump's muted reaction and the pope's alignment with globalist views raise eyebrows, especially amid past abuse cover-up allegations from his time in Peru. The conversation shifts stateside to Victory Day in Russia, where Trump's absence contrasts starkly with the parade of BRICS-aligned world leaders in Moscow, while tensions with Ukraine flare amid drone strikes. Back at home, the hosts unpack the bait-and-switch surrounding Ed Martin's removal as U.S. Attorney for D.C., revealing Thom Tillis as the scapegoat and Judge Jeanine Pirro as the flashy replacement. Yet Trump's strategic redeployment of Martin as pardon attorney and director of the DOJ's Weaponization Working Group hints at long-game maneuvers against the regime. The duo tackles a storm of stories: RFK Jr.'s controversial Surgeon General pick, the FBI's criminal probe into Letitia James, the staggering failure to locate 95,000 migrant children, California Democrats walking back their decriminalization of child prostitution, John Fetterman's bizarre mental spiral, and Biden's humiliating cognitive flops on The View. They also question James O'Keefe's underwhelming Epstein exposé and discuss how institutional rot infects everything from the courts to Congress to the FBI. With brutal honesty and dark humor, CannCon and Chris Paul cut through the narrative clutter to expose the controlled ops, power plays, and fake facades holding the current system together.
Steve Bannon: Trump Is Waging ‘Economic Warfare' on the Chinese Communist Party This is the full version of Jan Jekielek's interview with Steve Bannon. The interview was originally released on Epoch TV on May 3, 2025. “Never before in history have two great trading entities ever engaged in outright economic warfare, like is being engaged today. And that's why I say we're living in historic times,” says Steve Bannon, former White House chief strategist during President Donald Trump's first administration and host of the “War Room” show. “It's not just tariffs. They're a tool. [Trump]'s reorganizing the world system of commerce and of trade,” Bannon says. In this episode, we dive into the U.S.–China trade war, Trump's tariff strategy, his first 100 days in office, and where America is headed in the weeks and months to come. “The next 100 days are going to be three times more intense, dramatic, and meaningful than the first 100 days,” Bannon says.

We leven in turbulente tijden. In veel landen in het Westen proberen politieke populisten de democratie naar hun hand te zetten en zelfs om te buigen tot een autocratie. In dit speciale drieluik van de wekelijkse podcast van De Groene Amsterdammer onderzoekt hoofdredacteur Xandra Schutte, bijgestaan door Gizelle Mijnlieff, in drie gesprekken hoe journalistiek te bedrijven valt in illiberale tijden—in de Verenigde Staten, Europa en Nederland.Deze aflevering: Casper Thomas over de Verenigde Staten.Hoe te schrijven over de naargeestige politieke revolutie die zich op dit moment in de Verenigde Staten voltrekt?Besproken wordt een essay van Naomi Klein en Astra Taylor over het ‘eindtijdsfascisme': een wereld waarin techbro's en miljonairs zich voorbereiden op het einde der tijden—terwijl ze er in werkelijkheid juist aan bijdragen.De strategie van radicaalrechts is ‘to flood the zone', om met Trumps voormalige ideoloog Steve Bannon te spreken: het publiek bestoken met zoveel provocerende plannen, zoveel opruiende oneliners, zoveel stukken rood vlees, dat het er duizelig van wordt. Hoe te kiezen uit de shitstorm? Waar moeten we aandacht aan besteden? En wat moeten we juist negeren?Zie het privacybeleid op https://art19.com/privacy en de privacyverklaring van Californië op https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode, we explore the complex perspectives surrounding immigration, focusing on a recent NPR interview with Steve Bannon. Bannon's contradictory stance on economic policies and his views on judicial intervention are scrutinized. The discussion highlights the potential dangers of viewing immigration solely as a threat, while underscoring the constitutional rights of immigrants, including habeas corpus and due process. The narrative challenges prevailing fears and emphasizes the crucial benefits of a sensible immigration system for the American economy. The episode also addresses the broader societal implications of denying opportunities to both immigrants and American youth, proposing reforms in education and labor policies to foster a more equitable future.

Ukraine has now signed a mineral and natural resources deal with the US perhaps taking President Donald Trump a step closer to fulfilling his promise to secure peace there. But now his National Security Adviser, Mike Waltz is set to step down. So what do the American public think about the latest twists in the Trump 2.0 drama? And what about the MAGA faithful? One person tapped into the aspirations and some anger, at times, of Trump's most ardent supporters is Natalie Winters. She is a White House correspondent part of the 'new media' in The White House briefing room, though denied a membership to the professional body representing Washington Correspondents. She also Co-hosts The War Room podcast with right-wing provocateur Steve Bannon. She joins Mat Frei in Washington for The Fourcast to discuss how Trump 2.0 is unfolding. Produced by Calum Fraser, Rob Thomson and Holly Snelling

“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”―George Orwell,1984It isn't that one crazy, alleged animal-abusing Democrat who just introduced articles of impeachment against Trump who will define Resistance 2.0.It's the more serious threat that looms ahead should the Democrats take the House next year.Steve Bannon has become the harbinger. He predicted it in 2018, and he's predicting it now.He's right. They have no other plan for America, not in the four years Trump was in power the first time, not for Biden's four years, and not now. They have one directive: to purge Trump and MAGA from utopia.It's beginning to look a lot like 2016, only this time I'm watching from the other side of the door. I escaped, but only just barely. I sometimes look back at who I was then and scratch my head. How could I have been that easily manipulated? How could I have believed them?I believed it all. I read every book on Putin. I hung on every word that came out of Rachel Maddow's mouth. I believed the New York Times had our best interests at heart. I could not believe or even imagine that the people I trusted would eventually expose themselves as weaponized, partisan propaganda machines.I try to connect with the Democratic centrist I used to be because that is still where most of my friends and family are, not to mention all of American culture and most institutions. They live in a completely separate reality, and I live in this one.The only comparison I can make takes us back to just before the last Civil War. One reality not only justified slavery but also existed inside a utopian Antebellum paradise of Southern Belles and wealthy plantations, but also believed ending slavery was an existential crisis they could not survive. How else to convince so many to go fight and die for a cause?The pre-war propaganda whipped both sides into a frenzy that would eventually take them to war. From War History Online:In the decade prior to the Civil War, the American press began flourishing and evolved rapidly in terms of technology, output, and distribution. Meanwhile, the number of newspapers expanded and a new style of weekly pictorial publications filled with comics and illustrations became popular and widespread in northern and southern states.This mass distribution of picture-based media was eagerly and voraciously consumed by the American public. It also proved ideal for distributing and disseminating propaganda and successfully pushed divisive ideologies from both sides of the divide.Sound familiar?When the Union Army won the war, however, their utopian paradise in the South was upended, which kicked off episodes of mass hysteria that would eventually lead to Jim Crow laws, the KKK, segregation, and worse.It's easy, especially for the modern-day Left, to see those crimes against humanity as a disease that lives inside of white people, the sin of racism, a war they believe they're still fighting today.The side that suddenly had all of the wealth and power after the rise of Silicon Valley and the marriage between the Obama coalition and culture was lacking only one thing: spiritual reliefI was part of it. I was a “woke” blogger, though we did not use that word then, and many don't dare use it now. What mattered to me was elevating non-whites and other marginalized groups in the film industry. That gave me, a white woman, a sense of purpose, a deeper meaning for my work and my life, something I'd never felt before.But to be “woke” as translated for white people means believing you share your country and your culture with racists afflicted with “white fragility.” At first, it was an idea that spread, but by 2020, it was mandated.It makes sense when you consider our country expanding onto the new frontier of the internet, where the free market, cities, towns, and demographic groups mattered less than this giant swirling soup of humanity we suddenly had to make sense of. What better way than to divide us up into easily recognizable categories?2016 was, to all of us, a sign that the Confederacy had returned, especially since Trump was now a prominent figure on Twitter, just like Obama had been. We saw his win as an act of war. We were to obstruct, block, shun, attack, or resist. He was not to be allowed to govern, which would ensure his destruction, or so we thought.What we didn't do, however, was listen to the voters. They were invisible to us because we wrote them off as angry white deplorables clinging to their guns and religion. They don't deserve representation. No, it wasn't we who failed. It was Trump who invaded us and is now oppressing us.We couldn't see things any other way. Because we were the “good” side and those people over there had to be the “bad side.” The nation's first Black president, we believed, was hated by white Americans, and now, they were coming to dismantle his legacy, our utopia, and Make America White Again. They still believe that. It is existential to them, which explains the ongoing need to purge their utopia of threatening people.Those same realities that decided who got to stay and who had to go also existed in George Orwell's 1984. What is “cancel culture” anyway, but virtual gulags?Anyone who didn't agree with the reversed hierarchy was out. You couldn't just go along with it; you had to believe it. You had to love Big Brother.Orwell had it so right when he wrote in that last paragraph, “He was in the public dock, confessing everything, implicating everybody.”I could feel it, the mass dehumanization. It didn't sit right with me. I was disgusted by how my side was behaving, but it wasn't until I walked in the shoes of Trump supporters that I knew for sure that this really was a Civil War.No, Trump supporters were not getting lynched or put in concentration camps or a gulag. But the mechanisms at play are the same. I've never seen people in America feel emboldened to attack another group this way, but no doubt it has happened many times throughout our history.To justify that they are the “good” side, they must continue to find victims of oppression based on skin color or gender identity. They don't seem to care that much about the hollowed-out, torn-down neighborhoods in the middle of the country, where people of all skin colors are suffering. No, it has to be those who come from other countries, helpless and faceless, defined only by one thing: the color of their skin. This is a public episode.

The Vatican has announced that a conclave to elect the new Pope will begin on May 7. But, in light of the tensions that emerged between the late Pope Francis and President Donald Trump, some may be asking - can they 'Make the Vatican Great Again' by choosing someone with more conservative and traditional values? War Room host Steve Bannon thinks this is something the majority of Americans would like to see and he tells Piers Morgan his hopes for the future of the Vatican. Piers is then joined by a panel comprising of veteran political strategist Roger Stone, author and podcaster Jay Dyer, Episcopal/Anglican priest, Father Alberto Cutié and pastor Bishop Talbert Swan to debate their visions for the next Pope.

En 100 jours, Donald Trump n'a pas seulement gouverné, il a joué aux quilles avec l'économie mondiale et pris la démocratie américaine pour une salle de jeu privée. Son arme favorite : le chaos organisé. Depuis le début de son mandat, Trump a signé plus de décrets qu'un hyperactif en cure de caféine et attaqué à la tronçonneuse une économie jusque-là florissante. Première secousse : la guerre commerciale totale. Résultat : Wall Street s'est pris une gamelle historique. Le Nasdaq, l'indice des valeurs technologiques, a dégringolé tandis que le dollar dévisse. Deuxième secousse : l'instabilité. Les entreprises adorent la croissance, mais elles détestent l'imprévisibilité. Et avec Trump 2.0, elles ont eu droit à une overdose d'imprévisibilité. Troisième secousse : l'explosion judiciaire. Quand un président commence à défier ouvertement la Cour suprême et à ignorer les décisions de justice, on sait que l'État de droit vacille. En 100 jours, Trump a prouvé que la pire menace pour l'Amérique pouvait venir de l'intérieur. Les investisseurs commencent à voter avec leur portefeuille. Le dollar est devenu le punching-ball des marchés. Les taux d'intérêt flambent et le FMI vient d'abaisser la croissance américaine de presque un point : c'est du jamais vu pour un président aussi tôt dans son mandat. Donald Trump a prouvé qu'on pouvait secouer le monde sans vraiment savoir ce qu'on voulait en faire. Gouverner par instinct, c'est parfois galvaniser. Mais gouverner sans cap, c'est courir droit dans le mur. Et la question désormais, après 100 jours de pouvoir, c'est combien de temps l'Amérique pourra-t-elle encaisser les secousses avant de dire stop.

In this fiery Substack LIVE replay, Matt Lewis (The Hill and LA Times) and Bill Scher (Washington Monthly) tackle the paradox of Donald Trump's incompetence potentially blunting his authoritarian ambitions. Then things get even spicier: is the Republican Party coming apart at the seams? Bill lays out why budget reconciliation and internal GOP schisms — especially over tax cuts — could spell the beginning of the end.We also unpack the bizarre rise of “menstrual classes,” pro-natalism, and the not-so-hidden agenda behind the push for more (white) babies. From tariffs to Steve Bannon's tax hike dreams, this episode has it all.Watch now for sharp insights, biting wit, and the political analysis you didn't know you needed, including:-- Whether Trump's chaos and incompetence might save us from his authoritarian tendencies.-- Why "budget reconciliation" is exposing internal contradictions within the GOP, possibly leading to long-term fractures and branding problems (are they the party of "no taxes"?) that could be ruinous. -- The case for (and against) the GOP's quest to have more babies (plus, exposing some hidden agendas).-- Why David Hogg is wrong to try to "primary" older moderate Democratic incumbents. -- And MUCH more!Support "Matt Lewis & The News" at Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/mattlewisFollow Matt Lewis & Cut Through the Noise:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MattLewisDCTwitter: https://twitter.com/mattklewisInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/mattklewis/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVhSMpjOzydlnxm5TDcYn0A– Who is Matt Lewis? –Matt K.

In this explosive broadcast, Tara delivers a sobering warning rooted in military insight from Colonel Douglas McGregor: the next war won't be overseas—it's already begun inside the United States. With the Venezuelan-backed gang Tren de Aragua allegedly infiltrating the southern border, aided by cartel networks and lax enforcement, Tara exposes how the Biden administration's policies may be enabling a national security crisis. From human trafficking to terror plots and assassination threats against Trump, the episode outlines how ideological gangs are weaponized for political ends. Featuring sharp commentary from Stephen Miller and Steve Bannon, the show argues that Democrats are protecting these networks to secure future voters—at the cost of American sovereignty and safety.

How can John James run for governor if he's too afraid to face his own constituents who are angry with how Dear Leader Trump & Republicans are gutting Social Security and Medicaid while passing massive tax breaks for the corporate donor base. And Pat isn't real enthused by Democratic Congresswoman Haley Stevens's U.S. Senate run, and he explains why. 20:04-44:56: Dr. Jeffrey Insko Line 5 Interview Dr. Jeffrey Insko of The Current joins Pat to discuss the Trump Regime's fast-tracking of a tunnel project designed to keep the Line 5 pipeline operational for Canadian energy company Enbridge. The 72-year old pipeline is in poor shape, and a major leak or spill could spell doom for the health of the Great Lakes and Michigan's economy. Dr. Insko explains the decades of corporate and government corruption keeping Line 5 operating, and putting Michiganders at risk. 44:57-50:13: Last Call-MAGA Wants Tax On Rich? In the "Last Call," Pat explains why some MAGA Republicans, like former Trump strategist Steve Bannon, are pushing Republicans to pass a tax on millionaires and billionaires. It's obvious that AOC * Bernie Sanders' "anti-oligarchy" tour is resonating with millions across the country. 50:14-52:13: Ending Please, subscribe to the podcast, download each episode, and give it a good review if you can! leftoflansing@gmail.com Left of Lansing is now on YouTube as well! leftoflansing.com NOTES: "Trump administration to fast-track Line 5 tunnel, calling project 'emergency.'"

There's a civil war happening inside the MAGA coalition, and unless you're really in the weeds, you probably haven't heard much about it. It's not being covered seriously, either by the traditional media or the independent press. And that's a shame — because it pits two foundational visions of conservatism against each other. On one side, you have Grover Norquist and his ironclad “no new taxes” pledge. On the other, you have Steve Bannon and his populist charge to eat the rich.Norquist has spent decades making sure no Republican dares raise taxes. His philosophy is clear: low taxes are good for everyone, rich or poor, and raising them is political suicide. He's survived every GOP iteration — from neocon war hawks to MAGA populists — by keeping that line firm. But now, Trump's “one big, beautiful bill” may include a tax hike on the wealthy. Norquist is sounding the alarm, warning that breaking this promise would be as foolish as George H.W. Bush's infamous “read my lips” moment.Meanwhile, Bannon doesn't just want to raise taxes — he wants to send a message. He sees MAGA as a working-class movement, and taxing the rich is part of proving that Wall Street, Silicon Valley, and the GOP's old donor class no longer control the party. It's the clearest philosophical fault line we've seen on the right in years. If the GOP embraces even a modest tax hike on the wealthy, it could mark the end of a Reagan-era consensus that has defined Republican politics for half a century.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.And yet, barely anyone is talking about it. Not because it isn't interesting, not because it isn't important, but because media — mainstream and independent — is stuck on one setting: “trouble for Trump.” It's a framing device. Every Trump story must either confirm that he's a danger to democracy or a bumbling fool. Anything else? Not interesting enough to cover.Steve Bannon, who's all over mainstream shows like Real Time with Bill Maher and Stephen A. Smith's podcast, is out here advocating a radical repositioning of the Republican tax platform — and the headlines are all about whether Trump should run for a third term. And I get it, that's the clickier angle. But it's also lazy. We're watching tectonic plates shift, and we're still playing with bumper stickers.That's not just a mainstream media problem, by the way. It's an independent media problem too. There are great voices on Substack and elsewhere that have done real work to break free from traditional narratives. And yet, over the last few weeks, I've seen far too much content boil down to one question: “Is this an outrage? Yes or no?” And when the answer is always “yes,” you're not informing anymore — you're reinforcing.My goal isn't to register my opinion on every current thing. My goal is to give you something that still feels relevant five years from now. Something you can remember discovering here before it hit the mainstream. I'm not always going to say the thing that fits into someone's ideological slot. That's going to disappoint people sometimes. I get that. But I hope the tradeoff is worth it. Because if you're giving me your time and maybe even your money, I owe you something rare.

Looking them up to see what generational spread they represent among my favorite news analysts, I found three distinct generations among Steve Bannon at age 71, Tucker Carlson at 55,
Megyn Kelly begins the show by addressing the breaking news about the effort to push Pete Hegseth out as Defense Secretary, what's really behind his firing of his top staffers after a leak investigation, one of those fired now speaking out on Tucker Carlson's show and what he's implying about Hegseth, and more. Then Steve Bannon, host of Bannon's War Room, joins to discuss the intra-MAGA fight at the center of the Hegseth Pentagon tension, why the leakers may have wanted to get the information out publicly, the various "America First" factions in the movement today, the Democrats' strategy behind embracing Kilmar Abrego Garcia, how it's really all about delaying Trump and his ability to take more aggressive actions, the media spin and manipulation about his real story, AOC's potential to become a major national player, and more. Then Nancy Grace, author of "What Happened to Ellen?" joins to discuss the shocking and unsolved story of Ellen Greenberg, how she was stabbed 20 times but her death was ruled as a suicide, why Grace is determined to ensure the case gets re-opened, PA Gov. Josh Shapiro's involvement in the case, the newest details about the Bryan Kohberger case, why his defense team is pushing to be able to say Kohberger is on the autism spectrum and has OCD, whether the prosecution would accept a guilty plea, and more.Bannon- https://linktr.ee/bannonwarroomGrace- https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DBG9333Y3 Day Blinds: Visit https://3DayBlinds.com/MK & Shop the Buy One Get One 50% Off deal today!Byrna: Go to https://Byrna.com/MEGYN to save 10%Just Thrive: Visit https://justthrivehealth.com/discount/Megyn and use code MEGYN to save 20% sitewideFollow The Megyn Kelly Show on all social platforms:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/MegynKellyTwitter: http://Twitter.com/MegynKellyShowInstagram: http://Instagram.com/MegynKellyShowFacebook: http://Facebook.com/MegynKellyShow Find out more information at: https://www.devilmaycaremedia.com/megynkellyshow
Steve Bannon says Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu aggressively pressured President Trump to bomb Iran, but Trump rejected the push in favor of diplomacy. As Iran parades missiles and nears nuclear capability, leaks about Israel's aborted strike have shaken US-Israel ties. Ambassador Mike Huckabee delivered Trump's prayer at the Western Wall, while Secretary of State Rubio warned the US may exit Ukraine peace talks within days. Meanwhile, the Trump administration advances a Ukraine minerals deal, declassifies RFK files, and cracks down on Harvard's foreign funding. Sen. Van Hollen's meeting with MS-13-linked deportee Kilmar Abrego-Garcia sparks White House outrage. Trade war fallout threatens Tesla's robot plans and may spike US mortgage rates.

This week: Trump's tariffs – madness or mastermind? ‘Shock tactics' is the headline of our cover article this week, as deputy editor Freddy Gray reflects on a week that has seen the US President upend the global economic order, with back and forth announcements on reciprocal and retaliatory tariffs. At the time of writing, a baseline 10% on imports stands – with higher tariffs remaining for China, Mexico and Canada. The initial announcement last week had led to the biggest global market decline since the start of the pandemic, and left countries scrambling to react, whether through negotiation or retaliation. China announced a second wave of retaliatory tariffs – to 84% – and Trump, while softening his stance towards other countries, appeared to lean in to a trade war with China by announcing a further hike to 125%. As Freddy writes, for Trump and his supporters ‘China is America's chief enemy.' ‘President Trump just took a massive punch at Xi, right in the chops,' said Steve Bannon. ‘The overlords of easy money, the sociopathic overlords that run Wall Street, the globalist corporatists and the apartheid state of Silicon Valley – all of them combined are the partners of the Chinese Communist party.' But, as Freddy asks in the magazine, is there method in the madness? Freddy joined the podcast to discuss alongside the financial journalist and Spectator contributor Michael Lynn. (1:35) Next: should cousin marriages be banned? Cousin marriage has been back in the news since the Conservative MP Richard Holden proposed banning the practice. Much of the debate has focused on the British Pakistani community where marriage between cousins is less taboo than other communities within the UK. But, as Iram Ramzan writes in the magazine this week, marriage between cousins has been legal in the UK stretching back to Henry VIII. The dictator Saddam Hussein, the musician Jerry Lee Lewis and even the father of evolution Charles Darwin are surprising examples of people who married their first cousins. Iram writes that it was to her horror that her family suggested she marry her second cousin. To what extent is the law the right recourse to deter cousin marriage? And what are the cultural, ethical, as well as genetic, considerations? Iram joined the podcast alongside Dominic Wilkinson, professor of medical ethics at the University of Oxford. (18:09) And finally: restaurant thefts are rising – why? The Spectator's food columnist Olivia Potts explores how restaurants are facing a rising problem of theft. Gordon Ramsay's latest restaurant suffered a £2,000 loss in one week for example. from theft. And, as many as 17 million Britons say they have stolen from a pub or restaurant. Why do they do it? And why is restaurant theft a particular problem now? Liv joined us to discuss further, alongside an anonymous contributor who agreed to share their own experience of stealing from restaurants. (29:57) Presented by William Moore and Lara Prendergast. Produced by Patrick Gibbons and Oscar Edmondson.
In this conversation, Ross talks to Steve Bannon, the chief strategist from Donald Trump's first term and part of the original MAGA movement.

Silicon Valley's traditionally Democratic tech leaders are turning toward President Donald Trump, but are the reasons as straightforward as lower taxes and favorable regulations? Perhaps not, if we consider the influence of a convoluted political philosophy called the “Dark Enlightenment.” Washington and Silicon Valley power players, including Vice President JD Vance, Steve Bannon, Peter Thiel, and Marc Andreessen, have all cited the philosophy's ideas and one of its leading developers, Curtis Yarvin. Yarvin was reportedly present at Trump's inaugural gala as an informal guest of honor.In a nutshell, Dark Enlightenment rejects liberal democracy as an outdated software system incompatible with freedom and progress. Instead, it argues for breaking up the nation-state into smaller authoritarian city-states, which Yarvin calls “patchworks.” These patchworks will be controlled by tech corporations and run by CEOs. The theory is attached to another idea called accelerationism, which harnesses capitalism and technology to induce radical social change. In fact, Yarvin proposed a plan he called “RAGE”—or “Retire All Government Employees”—as far back as 2012.So, how did this obscure and oxymoronically named philosophy reach the highest echelons of business and political power? Bethany and Luigi trace the theory from its origins to its practical manifestations in Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency, Silicon Valley's race to develop artificial intelligence, and the growing push for “Freedom Cities” unfettered from federal regulations. Are the people embracing Dark Enlightenment espousing its ideas because they genuinely believe it is the way forward for humanity? Or do they believe it because it's a way for them to make money? What does it mean for capitalism and democracy if the administration runs the federal government like a tech company?
The Washington Roundtable is off today, and will be back next week. In the meantime, enjoy a conversation about the California governor's new podcast venture, “This Is Gavin Newsom,” from Vanity Fair's “Inside the Hive” podcast. Radhika Jones, the host and editor-in-chief of Vanity Fair, talks with the magazine's executive editor, Claire Howorth, and the “Hive” editor Michael Calderone about why Newsom is taking time off from running the world's fifth-largest economy to talk to people such as Steve Bannon. Is he effectively reaching right-wingers and countering the MAGA media machine? And will the show help or hinder his chances of leading the Democratic ticket one day?To discover more from “Inside the Hive” and other Vanity Fair podcasts, visit vanityfair.com/podcasts.

SEASON 3 EPISODE 113: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (SPECIAL COMMENT): The reason Trump’s Team of Idiot Rivals sent each other their war plans on Signal wasn't to keep them secret from the Senate, or from future investigations it was to keep them secret from TRUMP. They no longer TRUST Trump. They no longer think Trump UNDERSTANDS what’s going on. There WAS a work-around – AROUND TRUMP. They are CUTTING TRUMP OUT. I'm NOT defending any of these sloppy, stupid, dangerous, morons. But behind their blithering incompetence is the WHY. WHY did they conduct this Signal Chat? Because they have established at least one Ghost Mechanism to allow Trump’s cabinet to try to get something done without him destroying the world (yet) and if THAT’S the case the POINT of this is: you have a president whose own people think he is now a complete FEEB, that he can not function, and cannot be trusted not to do something at least disastrously stupid, IF that thing requires him to do anything more than blather for 40 minutes and morph slowly into Gloria Swanson as Norma Desmond in Sunset Boulevard. We need a whole new president, like, later today. This guy’s nuts. Also, they can all be charged with espionage under 18 U-S Code 793 “Gathering, transmitting or LOSING defense information."And a German newspaper found live mobile numbers and email addresses for Waltz and Gabbard and Hegseth. I’ll circle back to that. Also Waltz and Gabbard and Hegseth are three of the biggest idiots in this nation’s history. And I’m going to go further out on a limb and answer the MOST intriguing, MOST unaddressed question of this entire mess: why in the hell would the name of the editor of The Atlantic pop up automatically in the auto-composition in the phone of National Security Adviser Mike Waltz? Huh? Is MY name in there too? How about Jasmine Crockett? Goldberg was in Waltz's phone because Waltz put him there, and Waltz is denying it because Trump will fire him if he believes that's true. The other issues here are all valid and intriguing and as a story, boy did they hit the cloud just right and we got 77 inches of snow, this story has TWICE as much engagement world wide as any other news story this year. But the NEWS here is, this is NOT a Trump plan to keep reality from America. THIS is an AMERICAN plan to keep reality… from TRUMP. B-Block (31:30) POSTSCRIPTS TO THE NEWS: American governments mishandle information as if that's what they were hired. It's been true since the Confederacy dropped Robert E. Lee's battle plans on the ground in Maryland in 1862. It was true when the Bush Administration spent a day unable to send me an email, and instead wound up revealing to me all the people inside NBC News that Bush could count on to give him favorable coverage. C-Block (51:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: A Pennsylvania legislator is dumber than she looks. She's touting her career 100% Score from...The John Birch Society. Steve Bannon has finally been broken - he is caveating his own violent imagery. And Bill Maher keeps growing, keeps innovating, keeps finding new ways to make an idiot out of himself. This one involves Kid Rock and Trump.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Since Trump's second inauguration, there has been a firehose of news out of the White House – and longtime adviser Steve Bannon says that's all part of the plan. “It looks like chaos, but there's certain internal logic to it,” Bannon told Sarah Ellison, media and democracy reporter for The Post. “It's amazingly compelling content.”Sarah and tech reporter Drew Harwell have been reporting on the White House's new aggressive approach to messaging. Host Colby Itkowitz talks with Sarah about how that strategy involves sidelining legacy media in favor of newer outlets, and with Drew about how the White House is leveraging social media to attack critics and turn policy into meme-worthy moments.Today's show was produced by Laura Benshoff. It was edited by Maggie Penman and mixed by Sam Bair, with help from Sean Carter. Subscribe to The Washington Post here.Wondering where Martine is?
