that is steve bannon. that is the effect of steve bannon saying, "you, mr. trump, are going to keep your eye on the ball. you're going to keep saying these things. you're not going to be swayed by these establishment people in washington who don't have your own interests at heart." >> so let me state this as clearly as i possibly can: we are going to keep radical islamic terrorists the hell out of our country. >> u.s.a.! u.s.a.! >> narrator: it was a steve bannon production. that night, as they returned to washington on marine one, steve bannon was seated right next to the president. and bannon was by his side in the weeks that followed, as the white house was gripped by one crisis after another. >> two words: shock and surprise. >> breaking news tonight: president trump has fired fbi director james comey. >> narrator: the administration faced its biggest challees so far. >> fired fbi director james comey wrote a memo... >> just department appointed a special counsel to... >> narrator: they responded with the combative strategy that had brought them to power

steve: sure. yesterday, when the new fbi director was up on capitol hill, he had a very convenient way to dodge questions. because of he said, you know what? your question pertains to robert mueller's investigation. he's working on that. and then we have this another inspector general for the department of justice overlooking the whole shah bag to figure out whether or not things are on the up and up. pete: if it's about fisa i can't talk about it at all. members on that committee had serious exchanges with christopher wray. this is what they said. > if you kicked everybody off mueller's team who was anti-trump i don't think there would be anybody left. the clinton campaign paid the law firm who paid fusion gps who paid christopher steele who then paid russians. >> and now we have special agent strzok. and that same agent is the one who reportedly interview you had secretary clinton in an interview that you and i have never seen conducted that way before. >> whether strzok was involved in this, th
