Steve Bannon on Friday returned to Breitbart News as executive chairman, just hours after officially being ousted as White House chief strategist, and even helmed the conservative news site’s evening editorial meeting.
“The populist-nationalist movement got a lot stronger today,” said Breitbart News Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow. “Breitbart gained an executive chairman with his finger on the pulse of the Trump agenda.”
Bannon, who previously ran the populist news site before joining President Donald Trump’s campaign, left his White House post after having increasingly become isolated in the West Wing. Breitbart said in its announcement that Bannon had submitted his intention to leave the White House on Aug. 7.
