Democrats sought to ‘destroy' America during Biden's embarrassing term
'Steve Bannon's War Room' co-host Natalie Winters discusses Joe Biden's presidency and how his cabinet was 'well aware' of his cognitive decline. This comes as the former president's longtime physician Kevin O'Connor refused to answer questions about Biden's health during a deposition. 'They intentionally set out to destroy the United States by implementing policies that wrecked us,' Ms Winters told Sky News host Rowan Dean. 'There are a lot of layers here and it's hard to unpack but as an American, it's embarrassing to watch that.'

Joe Biden's The View appearance shows left-wing media's desperate bid for ‘credibility'
'Steve Bannon's War Room' co-host Natalie Winters reacts to former US president Joe Biden's appearance on The View, where he criticised Donald Trump's first 100 days in office. 'I think that's almost as brutal of a smackdown as the CNN clip that you played last week, although I think probably lies coming from both sides,' Ms Winters told Sky News host Rowan Dean. 'More importantly, it's not really even about Joe Biden, it's about the legacy media trying to sort of regain credibility in the eyes of the American people. 'Put Joe Biden on The View some more, I think that's great for Republicans leading into 2026.'

EXCLUSIVE Donald Trump WILL be US president for a third term, former White House Chief Strategist Steve Bannon tells the Mail's 'Apocalypse Now?' podcast
Donald Trump will be US president for a third term, his former adviser Steve Bannon has predicted. He also suggested that Mr Trump was seeking to avoid 'kinetic war' with China by showing Beijing 'respect' and seeking 'some sort of accommodation'. In an interview with the Mail's David Patrikarakos for his podcast, Apocalypse Now?, Mr Bannon forecast that the president would find a way of running for a third term, and would win. America's constitution restricts presidents to a maximum of two terms in office – but Mr Trump has said he is 'not joking' about wanting a further four years in the White House. The Trump Organisation is selling red caps that read 'Trump 2028' in an apparent reference to the next US presidential election. And when asked in an interview in March about the possibility of seeking a third term, Mr Trump said: 'There are methods which you could do it.' Responding to a question from Mr Patrikarakos about whether he thought this was realistic, Mr Bannon said: 'Yes, President Trump is going to be eligible, is going to run again, and will win again. 'And I will tell you, on the afternoon of the 20th January of 2029, he's going be in the White House signing executive orders.' Mr Bannon served as a key strategist to Mr Trump for his 2016 presidential campaign. He served a four-month jail term last year for defying a congressional subpoena from the committee investigating the January 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol. He now has a daily live podcast called Bannon's War Room. The former Trump adviser told the podcast he was certain that Joe Biden 'stole' the 2020 election. He said: 'The whole reason he came back and ran again was his burning conviction that he had won in 2020, it had been stolen… 'His inner group and our audience - almost to a person, I think it's almost 100 per cent - believe strongly to the core of their being that the 2020 election was stolen.' Mr Bannon also spoke of his dislike for Elon Musk, the tech billionaire who helped to bankroll Mr Trump's election campaign and is now heading the Department of Government Efficiency, known as Doge. He dismissed the Tesla chief executive as a 'techno-feudalist' who was part of a group of Silicon Valley oligarchs who had created 'an apartheid state'. Mr Bannon said: 'Remember, we are anti-oligarch, because we don't trust the oligarchs. The oligarchs are all progressives, including Elon Musk. They were all progressive. 'They're all progressive in their outlook. They've just come to President Trump because he's a winner.' He also criticised as 'very dangerous' Mr Musk's 'transhumanist' work – referring to enhancing humans through technology - on implanting microchips in brains through his company NeuraLink. Elsewhere in the podcast interview Mr Bannon attacked the Chinese Communist Party, describing it as an 'illegitimate dictatorship' that is 'worse than the Bolsheviks, worse than the Nazis'. He defended the president's approach towards China amid fears that Beijing is plotting to invade Taiwan – which it regards as a renegade province that must be reunited with the mainland - by 2027. He said: 'President Trump is trying to balance to make sure that we don't slide into a kinetic war with the Chinese Communist Party, either in the South China Sea or around the Straits of Taiwan. 'And so I think President Trump's doing what a world leader and the leader of the free world and the president of United States and our commander-in-chief should do - to show the guys respect and try to make sure that we can get some sort of accommodation.' But Mr Bannon spoke of his love of ordinary Chinese people, saying: 'The basic common man and woman in China are spectacular people, fantastic people, and I think have a very close bond to the citizens of the United States.'

Trump White House Receives 10,000 ‘New Media' Applications After Widening Scope of Press Access
President Donald Trump's White House has received more than 10,000 applications for its 'new media' seat, according to press secretary Karoline Leavitt on Friday. The new media seat — which was announced earlier this week at Leavitt's first press briefing — aims to give independent journalists, podcasters, social media influencers and content creators a chance to ask questions alongside reporters from legacy media outlets like The New York Times and The Washington Post. On Friday, the new media seat was being occupied by the co-hosts of the 'Ruthless' podcast. John Ashbrook, one of the show's co-hosts, was even called on by Leavitt to ask the first question of the day. 'You know, Karoline, in your first briefing, the media went after this administration reporting illegal immigrants they claim were not criminal,' Ashbrook said. 'Question is, do you think they're out of touch with Americans demanding action on our border crisis?' Leavitt responded that the mainstream media is 'certainly is out of touch' with regards to illegal immigration. She then pointed to a recent poll from the NYT — 'which, of course, is a legacy media outlet' — that showed 87% of Americans support deporting violent illegal immigrants. Earlier in the week, she said the new Trump administration would restore more than 400 press passes that were revoked during Joe Biden's time in office. Leavitt said this, coupled with the new media seat and Trump's recent conversations with reporters, shows he is the 'most transparent' president in history. Among those who have applied for new media seat approval this week include James O'Keefe, the Project Veritas founder who is now running O'Keefe Media Group; and Seth Dillon, the CEO of The Babylon Bee, the right-leaning satirical site. At 27 years old, Leavitt took the designation of being the youngest White House press secretary from Ronald Ziegler, who was 29 when he served for Richard Nixon, beginning in 1969. The position was introduced during Herbert Hoover's administration in 1929. Looking ahead, Leavitt joked the White House may need to expand the press room to accommodate its new media members.
