forget steve bannon. he hasn't figured out the governing philosophy and mechanism for this administration. >> pretty simple. 175 republicans and 40 to 45 democrats. >> no issue on which they're currently positioned to do that. >> infrastructure, we could do that -- >> even there, they're not. >> democrats think about infrastructure as spending. republicans think about it as tax credits. they're totally different things under the same label. >> what does donald trump think of it as? >> probably a blend. >> exactly. there's your governing philosophy. 180 plus 40. we'll compromise. because guess what donald trump loves to do? get people in a room and compromise. guess what steve bannon has been saying he should do for the past 70 days -- this all rests on donald trump. i'm not cutting him any slack at all. mika will probably talk about the 25th amendment by the end of the show. this is what donald trump does. you believe that, you believe that. i want a deal. we get a deal on infrastructure. tax cuts. paul r

bannon and jared kushner and steve bannon and jared kushner and steve bannon and jared kushner and steve bannon and the president himself. more could emerge. thank you very much. thank you. thanks to you. stay with us if you can. much more to come, including this, on bbc news. a mass evacuation is happening in north—west peru after the largest flood in nearly three decades. 55 years of hatred and rage, as theyjump up on the statue. this funeral became a massive demonstration of black power, the power to influence. today is about the promise of a bright future, a day when we hope a line can be drawn under the bloody past. i think that picasso's works were beautiful, they were intelligent, and it's a sad loss to everybody who loves art. this is bbc news. the latest headlines: myanmar‘s de facto leader, aung san su kyi, has spoken to the bbc, defending her record over atrocities against the rohingya minority. president trump has called the deadly gas attack in syria an affront to humanity, and said it changed his view of bashar al—assad. a series of devastating floods in peru have lef

and steve bannon at the center. he was removed from the national security council this week, but still had a seat in the room when president trump was briefed by his team on the syria strikes. the man sitting at the table, jared kushner, may try to be inching bannon out of the door. the shot just as jared off to the side at the left. joining me now is chief correspondent john harwood and molly harper. we have seen the reporting in the last 72 hours. is steve bannon on the chopping block? >> he is obviously has been demoted. aides have been pushing back there was a shake up with reince priebus and steve bannon leaving. let's be honest. things have not gone well in the white house for the last several weeks. really throughout the administration so far. i talked to a senior official last night who said we just don't know what's going -- i can't tell you what's going to happen in the next week or two. i think right at the moment when you have a military strike and you are engaged in a hostile action with syria and poten

>> steve bannon, when the establishment republican party was taking the party off the cliff, steve bannon said hold on guys, let's put a brake to this. we have to stand up for the worker. we have to be against some of these free trade deals. we need to stop illegal border crossings. he was saying these things that donald trump said in the primary that got him elected. i fully believe now that donald trump is materializing on what he promised, tpp and immigration. those things are starting to happen. he is saying don't listen to the washington establishment, do what you told the american people you would do. >> one of the ironclad rules is don't fight the family. it's always a losing bet. you can't fire jared kushner. there are deep idea logical and floss cal differences. he was called a globalist and a cutservative. >> i thought that was a typo. >> oh, no, no, no. it's a term of art. >> all right. >> but the second bit is there was a conscious movement among some folks to start pushing this idea of president bannon. he was presenting himself as a ma nigs jigs. we've reported the snl skit.

steve bannon, i just want to clarify, his wife in divorce papers under oath said that steve bannon did not want his daughters in los angeles going to a school because it had too many kids there like jared kushner's kids. he feared that the school had too many jewish kids and too many jewish parents. how does jared kushner do a day's work in the same building with that guy? >> well, look, i mean, i've spent a lot of time reporting on steve bannon and people who work with him and they include orthodox jews that have never heard him say those sorts of things. there are more issues between jared kushner and steve bannon. they are both stylistic and they go to policy. jared kushner has grown frustrated with steve bannon's burn the whole show down attitude and he also finds his policy views and economic nationalism and some of his views in terms of immigration too extreme and jared wants to moderate the president in his policy views. so it's created a chasm between the two of them. steve bannon believes that reporters in the white house, including trump's economic advisor, who bannon persona

the latest on steve bannon when we return. >>> president trump's political guru, steve bannon, has seen -- shrink quite a bit. the president removing him from the security council. supposedly ignited by h wrrks mcmaster. >> reporter: there is suddenly a shakeup in the national security council. steve bannon the president's chief strategist part of that principal committee named in the e early days was removed. general h.r. mcmaster is exerting his influence. steve bannon taken off that principal committee and two other people put back on returning back to traditional structure of the national security council. dan coats the director of national security intelligence and dunford joint chairman of staff, steve bannon stepping aside. this again seen as major shakeup because steve bannon one of the largely most influential advisors, he still will be involved of course but by not having a seat at the time it certainly is giving more power to the national security adviser h.r. mcmaster, inside baseball staff here change, but so significant that steve bannon we are told having a more diminishe

steve bannon stepping aside. this again is seen as a major shakeup because steve bannon one of the largely most influnstial people will still be involved of course but by not having a seat at the table which was very unusual at time is certainly giving more power to h.r. mcmaster, so a bit of inside baseball staff changing but so significant that steve bannon we are told having a more diminished role in the new national security adviser empowered again. >>> a long political advisor for the president. he's not out of the mix, an official tells cnn bannon did attend a meeting last night. but considered internal allies of trump's son-in-law jared kushner and "the new york times" bannon discussed quitting over his removal of the nsc, our reporting hearing nothing about that. >>> does this show a dramatic change in that world view? >> maybe. who knows. >>> the quest for the green jacket may have to go on without the world's top ranked golfer. the bleacher report next. administration said ousting assad was no longer a

i like steve, speaking of steve bannon. this is what he said, "i like steve, but, you have to remember he was not involved in my campaign until very late. i had already beaten all the senators and governors and i didn't know steve. i'm my own strategist. it wasn't like i was going to change strategies because i was facing crooked hillary." so it seems like a complete change in tune really for the president almost as if he feels the need to remind everyone who the boss is. >> it is a change in tune, don. to david gregory's point, i think this is an indicator not necessarily that bannon is going to be dismissed any time soon but trump wants to take him down a peg or diminish the perception of his role in influencing policy in the white house. donald trump is loyal to donald trump. donald trump is the one who likes to make donald trump look good. and the other difference between these two men right now in addition to the fact that bannon is taking some of the blame for the rocky first 80 or going on 100 days of this administra

in the case of steve bannon, steve is a -- >> wait, hang on. i'm just trying to get to understand what you're saying. you speak of bannon, you're talking about breitbart, which is a huge platform. which is also the alt-right. you said what about snit >> it's the anti-establishment. i've never used the term alt-right. >> steve sure used it. >> i'm just wondering how would jared kushner exact revenge from his father-in-law -- >> no, no. what i'm saying is there was a case where chris christie was being considered for the administration, and because chris christie was the one who prosecuted jared kushner's father, does that make sense? >> what does this have to do with steve bannon. >> i don't understand what that has to do with steve bannon -- >> no, no -- >> jared kushner and his father don't have a platform like breitbart -- [ overlapping speakers ] >> breitbart has a history of going after people they don't like. >> here's what i'm saying. in a sense, i feel this is targeting bannon, what you're doing right now is targeting bannon. you're aski

a lot of this you can read into trump's desire to put steve bannon in his place. i think that while he is definitely on the ropes, and while his job is in jeopardy, i would by no means count him out. this is a president who has a notoriously fickle decision-making process. he goes up and down and back and forth in whatever he -- whether you're talking about bombing syria, or reassigning people within the white house. you never know what's going oh happen. so i think you can't say anything definitive at this point. it would be irresponsible. but if i were steve, i would be quite worried. >> mr. steele, i want you to listen to something from sean spicer that proves the theory that trump's rear-view mirror might as well read objects on their way out of the white house may appear smaller than they seem to be to the news media. let's listen to sean spicer for some precedent. >> general flynn was a volunteer of the campaign. and obviously there's been discussion of paul man jaesmt fort who played a very limited role for a limit period of time. >> mr. bannon, who has rea

steve bannon was absolutely at the forefront of that. i think we saw him at the press conference today, even if he wasn't there, as we watched the president blame president obama for what happened in syria, refused to acknowledge russia's right hand in what happened in syria. the president was just as inflammatory as he always is, even without steve bannon as a lightning rod over his shoulder. sdp >> to that point, people are getting a little tired of him saying it was all president obama's fault. people were tired of obama saying it's bush's fault. even marco rubio is saying he's had enough. >> i disagree with many of the decisions made by the obama administration on foreign policy. but that presidency is over, we have a new presidency. >> so charlie, how long can this blaming game last? or how long will it last? >> it will last as long as donald trump has a problem shifting from the campaign mode to the governing mode. i think there have been a number of surveys out in the last couple days showing the american people are not willing to

steve bannon no longer on the national security council. nejra: interesting because steve bannon was supposed to be part of the delegation going with the president to meet xi jinping this week. let's get and big changes at deutsche bank after it slashed bonuses for the second straight year. three senior executives have left. running us is our managing editor for finance in europe, the middle east, and africa. thank you for joining us. was the second year of bonus cap suspected -- bonus cuts suspected? >> yes, difficult for the banks and legacy issues they have dealt with. clearing most of those by the end of last year. cutting back on compensation. we are seeing now the effect that is having on employees in the way of potentially looking elsewhere where there will be more clarity for the longer term on compensation. nejra: is the concern that deutsche bank may struggle to attract talent? is that what the focus is? >> yes that is what we are picking up from headhunters and people in the market. more people from deutsche bank picking up the p

steve bannon's worst week in washington. a sentence or two you wrote bannon has watched this power within the white house steadily shrink. an erosion that culminated when he -- go ahead. >> i was going to say, the remarkable thing is the roller coaster ride of this white house and there's rises and drops within days of one another. in february steve bannon was seen as president bannon. saturday night live had the whole running joke. how he's been reduced. this is the difficult thing when you're dealing with someone like donald trump who is literally saying this week this one's my favorite. this week i'm listening to this one. it kind of rotates. you're never exactly sure why. i think steve bannon is on a downward -- he's in a gully at the moment on the sort of broad plan of where the white house is. >> kirsten, the white house is downplaying all the reports of a potential shakeup. spokes woman says the only thing we are shaking up is the way washington operates. >> i don't think that's right. i think most people, there's def

release went out on saturday or sunday when he first pointed him and steve bannon and reince priebus appointed on the same day. and reince priebus was going to be the policy walk. did that power sharing arrangement, i take it, didn't necessarily withstand the tes of time >> but i think steve bannon is still seen to some extent, the keeper of the flame for real did i hard trump supporters. the problem is that coalition isn't big enough to win reelection so you need to reach beyond that and bannon isn't the person perceived to do that >> he doesn't want to distance himself too much, he's a big part of the base, but looking at how there's been controversy in the white house with jared kushner and steve bannon, do you think that plays into this a lot. trump very much feels his family or advisors, ivanka got a place over there as well now. do you think that that played into this as well? >> very much so, one of the things people do say and is reflected in my own report you can't cross president trump's family, and that's something that corey and that's not good. >> how much. steve bannon'

plus, is steve bannon on the hot seat? president trump giving a less than ringing endorsement of his chief strategist. i want to introduce to you hallie jackson, michael o'hanlon here. the director of research at the brookings institution. if i can, hallie, i'll start with you. let me start with bill in moscow. that's where we've had all the action in the last hour and then i'll get to you. that press conference between foreign minister of russia and secretary tillerson, it was pretty icy. they sat there next to each other talking past each other. talking about policies they don't share. their view of syria quite different. tell me how you read that and how strong language was from secretary tillerson. >> when the two men sat across the frabl each other and rex tillerson sat there and listened to sergeier lavrov talk about how bad the u.s. was. he started by saying, it's been a long day. that's one of the only things they could agree with. he spent two hours with him and two hours with vladimir putin, a meeting that we tho

we've got nato, the imf and steve bannon now! everyone except as three! the right wing that he represents, there must be tearing their hair out. now you've got him sidelined, congressional gridlock, can't get rid of obamacare. 18 months from now there are elections and i think the democrats will get there act in order and take the house if not the senate. we will get this lame—duck donald trump who won't stand again at the age of 7a for president in three years. lame—duck. actually, the us government will be a bit redundant and it will just be the us government will be a bit redundant and it willjust be the private sector getting on with business and producing profits and helping global growth. as it does. is this a sign ofjust how ruthless donald trump can be? that actually steve bannon served quite a big purpose in the campaign? late in the campaign. not that late! the last few months. is the bbc quoting donald trump for factual accuracy? it's not fair! anyway, he was brought in and now this isn't serving my purpose, i can't govern with steve bannon

the bannon treatment is this idea that steve bannon is pulling the strings and trump is sort of a puppet. i can't blame him for being irked by that but we've heard similar things like this before about paul manafort. he wasn't really involved in my campaign. actually, he ran it for some time. >> carter page said they didn't even know him. >> but he was announced as a new adviser. so i'm not surprised he is trying to step back from steve bannon. it sounds like the trifecta of advisers, steve bannon and reince priebus, jared kushner, these three-headed beast in the white house is getting unruly and it was always going to be pretty untenable to have three people vying for the president's ear, especially like someone like steve bannon who has not built these relationships in washington to fall back on the way reince was. >> this is delicate in a sense for the president because when you look at where he comes from, breitbart -- >> you don't want to piss him off. i said it. this is not a guy you want to be on the bad side of and, you know, who knows if steve bannon's loyalty to trump exists if

steve bannon, i just want to clarify, his wife in divorce papers under oath said that steve bannon did not want his daughters in los angeles going to a school because it had too many kids there like jared kushner's kids. they include orthodox jus and jewish people who never heard him say anything remotely anti-sem ittic. i think that's a non-issue. they are both stylistic and they go to policy. kushner has grown frustrated with banno's burn the whole showdown attitude. he also finds his policy views particularly his economic nationalism and some of his views, you know, in terms of immigration, too extreme and jared wants to moderate the president in his policy views. it created a schizm between the two of them. steve bannon believe has the new yorkers in the white house which also includes gary cohen, trump's top economic adviser, who bannon personally despises leading him away from his voters towards sort of squishy conventional wall street democrat kind of philosophy. >> david corn, "new york times" reporting that in an argument, steve bannon with jared kushner, jared kushner said to

big loser, america first steve bannon. first those 60 tomahawk missiles trump sent flying last night were a direct target at the bromance with putin. syria's reported chemical weapon attack earlier this week. according to oechingss, last night's target was the same military airfield that was used to launch those deadly chemical weapons attack. u.s. officials tell nbc the strike destroyed aircraft, infrastructure, like fuel pumps. syria claims at least six people are dead. it all unfolded as president trump hosted the chinese president at the mar-a-lago club in palm beach. shortly after the missiles were launched, president trump gathered again with his national security team to be briefed in a makeshift situation room. roughly 30 minutes later, the president delivered his remarks on the strike, which he said served the national security interests of us. >> it is in the vital national security interest of the united states to prevent the spread and use of chemical dedly chemical weapons. >> largely positive with the support

bannon is going to leave, i think reince priebus will probably survive steve bannon. >> that would be something, glen thrush, robert costa, thank you. >>> we will head to palm beach where the president talks to his count parents. we will talk about adam kensinger, he has been calming on takening on the assad regime. we will talk about a possible end game. plus the top democrat on the house intel committee, congressman adam schiff. are you watching "morning joe." we'll be right back. i wanted to know who i am and where i came from. i did my ancestrydna and i couldn't wait to get my pie chart. the most shocking result was that i'm 26% native american. i had no idea. just to know this is what i'm made of, this is where my ancestors came from. and i absolutely want to know more about my native american heritage. it's opened up a whole new world for me. discover the story only your dna can tell. order your kit now at ancestrydna.com. knowing where you stand. it's never been easier. except when it comes to your retirement plan. but at fidelity, we're making retirement planning clearer. and

steve bannon was the keeper of that flame. on the trump campaign and in the white house, he also as jonathan discussed has tried to shape the presidency so it is more america first and some of these recent decisions suggest that it's moving away from america first. breitbart has at times launched salvos at the trump administration, but our sources tell us that bannon has been the one urging them, hey, guys, tamp it down a little bit. if bannon is out, there is no one to urge that and i think we would see breitbart really come at the trump administration all guns blazing. >> you just heard from -- i did that interview this morning with a former breitbart employee who said, i think his approval rating now, 39, 40%, would go down to 20. what would this mean to his base? what would the risks be? what would the political calculation have to be if donald trump decided to fire him? >> well, you know what, on some of these issues that we're talking about that, you know, we see as real indicators of a shift towards a more moderate cent

problem, steve bannon, this person said, is close to this president. they do enjoy a close working relationship and he is really the biggest link in that white house to donald trump's political base. so there is probably some serious hesitation about actually making a change and getting him to leave the white house. but it is difficult delivering on that change. we talked in the last segment about donald trump really conforming to washington, rather than forcing washington to bend to his pugnacious style of leadership. and bannon brought in people from breitbart. but this is an establishment town. there is no populist infrastructure to draw on when you need to get things done. >> and kaitlin, suddenly jared kushner has this incredible portfolio. he has proximity and he has the aura and protection of family. everyone is allowed to keep family close. >> well, what is really interesting about this palace intrigue beyond washington and new york is that now that we are in the process of deciding what to do in syria, for example, deciding the fight against i

the steve bannon arrow pointing up or down? >> reporter: well, i think it's certainly pointing down, but i don't know that that necessarily points to being over. i think that what you see here -- and let's be clear, this isn't just about staff members, who's up, who's down. look at the impact. look at what you were just discussing with all the moves donald trump has made on policy. it is quite clear that steve bannon's world view is not the one that president trump is implementing right now. >> today. >> right now. >> reporter: yeah, no, i said right now. but that is not what is the current policy implementation from president trump. so, clearly, there are other voices that are ascendent and winning out this argument in the white house, and steve bannon got wrapped up in what i think is a classic sort of flaw for a staffer in washington. when you become the cover boy, when you become the story, you're not staffing the principal all that well. >> what i think is interesting, though, this isn't a guy who's like, hey, i want to do

many of these people are accolades of steve bannon. the question is, is steve bannon there for the long haul? i know many people like myself who want steve bannon out of the white house and don't think he belongs. however, we'll see where that ends up. >> so, kevin, to that point, you do have bannon being removed from the national security council last week. he is allowed to be in any of the principal meetings he wants to. he went to one late in the week last week. do you see him as having a waning influence in the oval office? >> i think it has more to do when a president gets in the white house and recognizes the power of the executive and the power of being a commander in chief and listening and hearing directly from military advisors like henry mcmaster and general mattis over at the pentagon that tends to supersede that of a staffer. i think the timing is interesting given that jared kushner was in iraq and spending time with these top military officials and then, subsequently, this move was made to the national security council.

crumbling a little bit. >> is this the beginning of a diminished role for steve bannon? is this a slap in his face that all of a sudden he's no longer on this national security council key group? >> my sense is that it's a combination of everything that you just said, that it is the fact that he was put on there to baby sit michael flynn and, yes, it does beg the question why was he the national security adviser and the answer is that you get from a lot of sources, i'm sure you're hearing this, too, michael flynn was loyal to the president and wanted to be national security adviser. so the president said, okay, i'll make you a national security adviser. is that the way decisions should get made? no. but that's what happened. the people around donald trump had to work around that and part of that was putting steve bannon at the national security council which then ended up with a whole host of other problems that they didn't actually realize which they should have. in addition to that, yes, it's separating him from the national security which should happen because his foc

steve bannon removed from national security counsel with trump's sign off. what else does your piece say and is all as its being portrayed here? >> no, i don't think so. conflicting narratives out of the white house driven by competing power centers and a president taking stock of 76 days that have been less than successful. especially following the debacle around the health care and the obamacare repeal effort that fell flat. the president, one source told us, may be looking for a scapegoat in all of this. he's reaching out saying what do you think of the team? and the understanding we have is that bannon, who was very close with kushner for a long time, that relationship has cooled a bit. kushner has been expressing concerns about bannon and his influence on his father in law. where jared kushner is, is a pretty good beromter of where president trump trump is at this point. bannon folks said these are natural disagreements. bannon sort of economic nationalism on one side and the new york capitalists, the goldman sachs, and on the other side talking about i

"11th hour" begins right now. good evening once again from our headquarters in new york. the president today invited two "new york times" journalists into the oval office. he then accused susan rice of committing a crime and defended his friend, bill o'reilly. and that was before his joint appearance with king abdullah of jordan where he said he changed his mind about syria and his leader. not long ago he said things like "we should stay the hell out of syria." and "syria is not our problem." while blaming the situation on his predecessor squarely, he acknowledged the humanitarian crisis at hand and did not rule out the use of military force. >> i think obama administration had a opportunity to solve this a long time ago when he thds red line in the sand. when he didn't cross that line after making the threat, i think that set us back a long w

up next president trump's tepid defense to chief strategist steve bannon. i asked president trump about the feuding and new reporting live from the white house. where's jack? he's on holiday. what do you need? i need the temperature for pipe five. ask the new guy. the new guy? jack trained him. jack's guidance would be to maintain the temperature at negative 160 degrees celsius. that doesn't sound like jack. actually, jack would say, hey mate, just cool it to minus 160 and we're set. good on ya. oh yeah. that's jack. no one burns on my watch! try alka seltzer heartburn relief chews. they work fast and don't taste chalky. mmmmm...amazing. i have heartburn. alka seltzer heartburn li chews. enjoy e lief. dearthere's no other way to say this. it's over. i've found a permanent escape from monotony. together, we are perfectly balanced, our senses awake, our hearts racing as one. i know this is sudden, but they say: if you love something... set it free. see you around, giulia ♪ working on my feet all day gave me pain here. in my knees. so i stepped on this machi

steve bannon has a lot of levers to pull. >> reporter: he does. the key difference here is that steve bannon was extremely effective in a campaign setting. as the totem of breitbart. as the person who was the spokesman for the anti-establishment movement. now he's part of a different type of machine. he's in the white house. and there are a lot of different forces going on. so in some ways the machinery he set up to get trump into the white house, he's not at the helm of that, he's sort of on his own. so, you know, i think the dynamics are a little different. >> however, one of the complaints from the kushner camp reportedly is that one of the ways in which bannon takes swipes at jared kushner is through breitbart. breitbart has been remarkably uncomplimentary of jared kushner and the role he's playing in the white house. >> yeah, look, throughout history, leaks from the white house and, you know, factional bannon is closely affiliated and had a financial relationship with a very popular website on the far right that could be an effective way to d

something steve bannon driven. he will start going to people who can lead him with successes, and right now because of the trust factor with jared kushner he probably knows how to best manipulate donald trump in thinking how to win. >> and jared kushner has what the others don't have, which is he is married to ivanka so donald trump can't so easily get rid of them. >> gary kohn and him see to be developing -- >> that's a big problem as well. i mean -- >> but also, trump is loyal until he is not loyal. steve bannon you could argue got him to this point by getting him on message at the end of the campaign and disciplining him a little bit more in terms of trump. but now according to people that i speak with, steve bannon is in a precarious position because donald trump's poll numbers are not good, he hasn't gotten any quote, unquote, wins like susan is saying and jared is out to get hiand the family is out to get him. it took the family months to get rid of corey lewendowski and he was arrested for assault. that is t

steve bannon the other night. >> is his name steve bannon. >> his name is not steve bannon. sometimes we say i spoke to an ally of steve bannon and it's steve bannon but, no. they say he's in a very bad place. this is an ally of steve's. not an ally of reince priebus or jared kushner. >> let's do the list. incredible inaugural speech going down in history as one of the worst ever. >> carnage. >> oh, my gosh, the muslim ban, i think that was a success sort of. >> definitely. >> and he really worked it on health care. >> great job. >> so i would think -- >> actually started to see -- >> three for three. >> -- back in speech where you started hearing stories about bannon going in trying to get carnage speech in before congress. stephen miller was like back off. stephen miller has been linked to bannon in a way that stephen miller learned pretty early on was making him uncomfortable. i didn't hear this from stephen miller but from different sources that bannon kept trying to get him to put carnage into the speech. miller said i'm good. let me write the speech. it was a speech ma

are steve bannon's days numbered? next, a sense of what's happening to the president's inner circle. customers. who's with me? we're like a basketball team here at ally. if a basketball team had over 7... i'm in. 7,000 players. our plays are a little unorthodox. but to beat the big boys, you need smarter ways to save people money. we know what you want from a financial company and we'll stop at... nothing to make sure you get it. one, two... and we mean nothing. ♪ ♪ (i wanted him to eat healthy., so i feed jake purina cat chow naturals indoor, a nutritious formula with no artificial flavors. made specifically for indoor cats. purina cat chow. nutrition to build better lives. we've done well in life, with help from our advisor, we made it through many market swings. sure we could travel, take it easy... but we've never been the type to just sit back... not when we've got so much more to give when you have the right financial advisor, life can be brilliant. ameriprise >>> the trump administration is pushing back on

the latest breaking news is that steve bannon had to be pushed out. that he resisted the move, and at one point threatened to quit if the move went forward. we came this close, rachel. we came this close. to the quitting story. >> threaten me again, big guy. >> surely you can get the quitting story going again. surely there can be another wave of offending steve bannon to get him that close to quitting. >> i wish i could believe anything they say about themselves. any white house official ever quoted about anything in the white house, i would love to believe it. >> every once in a while, this may be one of those moments where i want to believe this!

when you work in washington, d.c., steve bannon is what we call big hat, no cattle. he's got big ideas but has neither money nor people. when you've got money or people, the cia director, secretary of defense, secretary of state, you've got to do things. you've got to negotiate with the russians, deploy forces, run cl clandescent operations. if you want to do stuff, it's the secretary of state, the secretary of defense, cia director, the guys with money and people, the big idea guys, we saw what happened to them today. this guy got his ass handed to him. >> bianna, what do you think? >> i agree with what phil mudd just said. this would have been the biggest story in the headlines but there are other things happening domestically and abroad a real international crisis unfolding in syria. >> i was just going to say, i was told tonight by a source familiar with working for the nsc, that this is something that general mcmaster, the national security adviser, has been working on for a long time and this something being, getting steve bannon off of the principals committee

you don't -- you want steve bannon inside the tent. not outside. i think that we have seen that steve bannon has been put in his place, i think that his importance has been minimized. he may, steve bannon may choose to leave on his own as he has threatened to do on his own already reportedly, but i don't think you cut him loose. i think you keep him somewhere, even if you curtail his role. >> it is interesting, kirsten, because we heard so much during the campaign got how loyalty was so important to donald trump. but it does seem like this white house distances themselves. paul manafort was just a guy who seemed to be around for a couple of days, according to the white house, but he was the guy who managed the campaign. >> according to lthe loyalty wip flows one way, and it's you need to be loyal to donald trump, but it doesn't seem that he feels he needs to be loyal the other direction, the family seems to play that role for him. he's very tight with his family, and anybody outside of his family, he's willing to dispense with when things don't go

donald trump has two steves, he's got steve bannon and he's got steve miller. if steve bannon looefeaves, doe steve miller rise? >> perhaps. steve miller is very much in sync with steve bannon, but he's been very careful to cultivate other relationships. he's close with jared kushner as well, he's close with trump himself, and a lot of lawmakers have been quick to remind me and my colleagues, look, steven miller was riding around on a plane with donald trump for months helping him shape his ideas, helping him communicate his ideas long before steve bannon even joined the campaign. the implication there being, of course, if steve bannon were to walk out the door, miller would very much be here to stay and he's on firm ground. >> learning his voice, he came on very early on. he came directly from jeff sessions' office. he was the director of communications for jeff sessions, and his idealogies are very much in line with donald trump the nationalist which is what donald trump organically stated and/ organically went wih during the campaign. there are two other nam

you're looking at a picture of steve bannon. steve bannon has been removed from the national security council. kristen welker is going to be joining us in a few minutes with more on what this news is. he has been removed. it's being described as a shak shakeup to the national security council. steve bannon has been removed. the homeland security adviser has been downgraded. h.r. mcmaster, the adviser, has been given responsibility for setting the agenda for the homeland security houn sicounci. the negotiations were going on about mcmaster becoming the adviser after the resignation of michael flynn. this was thought to be a condition of mcmaster. he is not going to take the job unlus ess he has the authority run the thing. the questions a lot of people had, were how will he do that with bannon in the room. having a presidential adviser in the room is unprecedented. it felt like the presidential eye in the national security council. this is a big piece of news. i'm joined by an opinion writer with the "washington post" to shed som

from steve bannon? >> absolutely. there is no line of separation -- there is no line of separation between breitbart and the steve bannon white house. when you look at julia hawaiihnw at the white house. >> this is the nature of d.c. we have this revolving door. i've worked at three networks. some say i couldn't hold a job. but i mean people are coming and going -- >> this is a conspiracy theory. a lot of people at breitbart assume when steve leaves the white house at some point he's going to go right back there and be working -- >> i'll let you respond to that because i don't have a dog in this fight. >> nothing wrong with that. one of the things i hear about steve, concluding from breitbart people, they can't get him on the phone because at this white house it seems like all the action and energy is around the president. they're always around the president. i think the president likes having them around. that's another aspect of this white house. but no, i think -- >> do you think he's running breitba
