from TRUNEWS with Rick Wiles · host Morning Manna with Rick Wiles
President Trump is seeking to block publication of an explosive "kiss and tell" book based on interviews with former White House advisor Steve Bannon. The book is Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House. The author is Michael Wolff. The publisher is Henry Holt and Company. President Trump's lawyer sent a legal notice to Mr. Wolff demanding that publisher Henry Holt and Company "immediately cease and desist from any further publication, release or dissemination" of material from the book. London's Guardian newspaper published excerpts from the book on Wednesday. In the book, Steve Bannon described a Trump Tower meeting in 2016 between Don Trump Jr. and a group of Russians as treasonous and unpatriotic. Mr. Bannon told author Michael Wolff that the Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigator are "going to crack Don Junior like an egg on national TV." The accusation of treason rocked the Trump base of supporters across America and produced a firestorm of criticism of Steve Bannon among conservative supporters of the President. Mr. Bannon was chief executive of the Trump campaign in the final three months of the 2016 campaign. He served seven months in the Trump White House as the President's Chief Strategist. He was ousted in a power struggle with Jared and Ivanka Kushner, the President's son-in-law and daughter. In the book, Mr. Bannon refers to Jared and Ivanka as Javanka. According to author Michael Wolff, Former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger is quoted as saying that the White House turmoil during President Trump's first year in office is "a war between Jews and the non-Jews." Author Michael Wolff is no stranger to controversy. Leftist magazine New Republic described him in 2004 as a "New York creation, fixated on culture, style, buzz, and money, money, money." Mr. Wolff built his literary career writing about rich and powerful people such as disgraced Hollywood sexual attacker Harvey Weinstein, and media mogul Rupert Murdoch. Mr. Wolff published his first magazine article in 1974. The New York Times published his profile of Angela Atwood, a friend of Mr. Wolff's family. Ms. Atwood was a member of the Symbionese Liberation Army, a violent left-wing revolutionary group. Ms. Atwood participated in the Symbionese Liberation Army's 1973 kidnapping of Patricia Hearst, granddaughter of American publishing magnate William Randolph Hearst.
