Steve Bannon, the former head of Breitbart News and former chief strategist in the Trump White House, is setting up shop in Europe. He’s establishing a movement to link far-right parties. Such parties are growing in Europe and already have a measure of power in Italy, Austria and Hungary. Host Carol Hills speaks with Bannon’s friend and collaborator Benjamin Harnwell to get some insight into their goals and ideology. Harnwell runs the conservative Catholic group the Human Dignity Institute in Rome.
