First on CNN: Jared Kushner details West Wing 'war' with 'toxic' Steve Bannon in new book
Kushner details West Wing 'war' with 'toxic' Steve Bannon in new book 02:34
(CNN)Jared Kushner details his clashes with Steve Bannon in his new book, describing a "toxic" West Wing presence who accused him of "undermining the President's agenda" and threatened to break him "in half" if Kushner turned on him.
The
detailed account in the memoir -- set to be published next month --
provides fresh insight into the pernicious environment inside former
President Donald Trump's West Wing. Coming just as the former President
gears up for a 2024 campaign, excerpts from the book reveal how
viciously the Trump team turned on one another from the earliest days of
the administration, and how distrust and resentment affected every
aspect of governing.
Trump's
son-in-law and senior adviser writes that Bannon once yelled and
threatened him in the Cabinet Room after Gary Cohn, a senior economic
adviser, informed Kushner that Bannon was leaking negative information
about him.
"Steve, you gotta stop leaking on Gary," Kushner said he told Bannon. "We're trying to build a team here."
Kushner
writes that Bannon responded: "'Cohn's the one leaking on me. ...
Jared, right now, you're the one undermining the President's agenda,' he
continued, his eyes intense and voice escalating into a yell. 'And if
you go against me, I will break you in half. Don't f--- with me.'"
In
"Breaking History: A White House Memoir," Kushner questions his own
response and says he was "woefully unprepared" after Bannon, "a black
belt in the dark arts of media manipulation," declared war on him. CNN
has reached out to a spokesman for Bannon on Kushner's book.
