Speaker 1: Late this week, Steve Bannon is back in the thick
Speaker 1: of political controversy and strategic intrigue, and true to form,
Speaker 1: he is stirring both headline and back room drama. A
Speaker 1: major new documentary, The Architect of trumpsm Steve Bannon's Unseen Power,
Speaker 1: released August fourteenth by Real Stories, traces his bold journey
Speaker 1: from Navy officer to Breitbard kingmaker, to the combative strategist
Speaker 1: shaping Donald Trump's first White House and the global populist phenomenon.
Speaker 1: The film gives fresh oxygen to both Bannon's legacy and
Speaker 1: his enduring legal woes, especially his conviction for contempt of Congress,
Speaker 1: which still hangs over him and shapes much of the
Speaker 1: public's view. On the media front, Bannon is again a
Speaker 1: quote machine. President Trump this week abruptly fired his own
Speaker 1: Bureau of Labour Statistics Commissioner as covered by Govesegg and
Speaker 1: on Labour after a disappointing jobs report, and nominated Heritage Foundations.
Speaker 1: E j Antoni antony A Ban in favour, appeared on
Speaker 1: Bannon's war Room podcast on August fourth, praising the move
Speaker 1: and claiming the BLS is outdated. This highlighted Bannon's persistent
Speaker 1: behind scenes influence over Trump personnel picks and economic messaging,
Speaker 1: underscoring his ongoing role as the master puppeteer for the
Speaker 1: America First movement. Bannon's public monologue reached further when, according
Speaker 1: to AOL, he directly threatened former ex CEO Linda Yakarino
Speaker 1: with the line you can't hide after her abrupt resignation
Speaker 1: that kept his name buzzing on social media, and the
Speaker 1: tone combative personal Unfiltered reflects the approach that has maintained
Speaker 1: Bannon's Internet presence, where he continues to command large audiences
Speaker 1: as well as fierce critics. Those rumors swirling about Bannon
Speaker 1: running for president in twenty twenty eight exploded on Instagram
Speaker 1: and across digital tabloids, with some inside reports from Daily
Speaker 1: Beast and Economic Times speculating he's quietly plotting a campaign
Speaker 1: and already attacking Vice President J. D Vance, whom he
Speaker 1: calls not tough enough. But in a sharply worded rejection
Speaker 1: to Economic Times, Bannon himself shot down those twenty twenty
Speaker 1: eight rumors, saying he is going to stay out of
Speaker 1: any formal candidacy and remain a kingmaker and strategist rather
Speaker 1: than a direct contender. Still, the speculation persists online, though
Speaker 1: there's no credible confirmation he will actually run. In summary,
Speaker 1: the past few days found Steve Bannon making news on
Speaker 1: multiple fronts, celebrated or vilified in a documentary, flexing influence
Speaker 1: with high profile Trump appointments, throwing punches on social media,
Speaker 1: and fielding speculation about his political ambitions, all while his
Speaker 1: conviction and legal battles remain an unresolved chapter in his
Speaker 1: long public saga. And that is it for today. Make
