Ascendant reveals the formative early life, complicated development, tumultuous career and extraordinary successes of one of the most controversial conservative political voices today
“The Most Dangerous Political Operative in America,” (Bloomberg News) is also one of the most popular. Stephen K. Bannon, love him or hate him, is the leader of tens of millions of Americans of the “America First” movement also known as the MAGA (Make America Great Again or Trump) patriots. This position makes him a primary target of domestic and international power brokers like the Chinese Communist Party, the World Health Organization, the World Economic Forum, the US intelligence community, the global military/industrial complex, Hollywood and Wall Street. If he’s your philosophical ally, he is an invaluable source of intelligence. If he is your philosophical enemy he is even more so.
Beyond the well-funded efforts to annihilate him professionally, death threats are also common for Bannon and his family. Increasingly, violent progressive activists gather outside of his DC home studio in efforts to intimidate guests and discourage advertisers of his top rated show. As the election of 2024 draws closer and the power of MAGA continues to rise, the danger to him personally will only increase. Steven Bannon is a candle burning brightly at both ends. It would be wise to read more deeply into the dim underworld of cultural and political warfare while his light lasts.
Ascendant
• presents a revealing characterization of a truly fearless political operative, media producer and one of the most controversial political thought leaders in the world today.
• reveals the development and elements of Bannon's unique, some would say “quirky” personality, his self-discipline, focus and success.
• shows why his storied rise through the US Navy, Wall Street, Hollywood and Washington DC and his public embrace of Christianity, national populism and the “America First” movement is an inspiration to millions of his loyal followers and anathema to many professional and political enemies.
• offers an inspiring message of persistence, drive and unapologetic pro-Americanism in the face of well-financed and determined opposition.
Praise for Bannon: American Street Fighter:
"Steve Bannon is one of the most persecuted men in America because he is one of the only individuals who has seen the inside of the corrupt establishment, walked its halls, dined with its elite, and then walked away to declare war on them for the American people. Steve Bannon is the fiery patriot spirit of 1776 in our day."—Jack Posobiec, Veteran Navy Intelligence Officer, senior editor of Human Events, and New York Times bestselling coauthor of Unhumans
"Steve Bannon is not just a founding father of MAGA and leader of a global populist nationalist movement. He is also the premier political strategist of our time, which is exactly why the Democrats conspired to put him in prison during the last four months of the 2024 presidential election. It’s the political crime of the century, and yet another example of Democrat election interference that has no place in American democracy. Free Steve Bannon, jail Merrick Garland, elect Donald Trump – that’s what justice looks like."—Peter Navarro
"It’s all there in the subtitle: American Street Fighter. Jim Proser powerfully sums up the life of this patriot, Stephen K. Bannon: A man of the people--an enemy of the deep state. A modern-day founding father who will not back down fighting for liberty and his fellow Americans. Blessed with the spirit and courage of Patrick Henry, Bannon is a streetfighter and happy warrior who’ll be on the right side of history when America’s noble story is written."—Gus Mollasis, author of Get Trump
"This book is like a stick of dynamite to wake a sleeping populace with a call to courage, honor and patriotism for such a time as this. Fortuitously, Proser poignantly portrays what such qualities look like—in the life of Steve Bannon."—Hutz H. Hertzberg, D.Min, Ph.D, Chief Education Officer, Turning Point Academy
“With the precision of a cardiac surgeon, Jim Proser has sliced through the gruff, long haired, unshaven and unkempt outward layers of Bannon’s personality to get to his heart…yes, he has one and, in spite of all his past shenanigans, it’s profoundly based on his Catholic upbringing in the Judeo-Christian ethic. Proser has done an excellent job of unveiling the many aspects of a brilliant and complex larger-than-life personality who’ll continue to be a significant influence on conservative American politics for a long time to come.”— Peter M. Fallon, Lt. Cmdr., United Stares Navy, ret.
"Steve Bannon's contribution to this country can't be quantified. He is an American hero. He's the best mentor a young politician could ask for. He's my friend, he's family.” —Royce White, NBA athlete and Senate Candidate (R-MN) 2024
“Jim Proser's new book is a masterful summary of Steve Bannon’s tumultuous life: Lieutenant on a US Navy destroyer, Wall Street buccaneer at Goldman Sachs, independent financial dealmaker, Tea Party promoter, filmmaker, prominent participant in the Trump Presidential saga, US political prisoner, and much more…this is a fascinating story.”—Dr. Will Happer, Cyrus Fogg Brackett Professor Emeritus in the Department of Physics at Princeton University and Deputy Assistant to President Trump, National Security Council
“From his humble beginnings to his rise as Chief Executive Officer of the 2016 Trump Campaign and on to Chief Strategist and Senior Counselor to President Trump in the White House, Steve has always represented and stood for ‘the Forgotten Man’. This book is a must read for those seeking the truth behind Steve’s background as well as providing guidance and inspiration of how each of us can and must play a vital role in making history.”—MaryBeth Bannon
"This book is like a stick of dynamite to wake a sleeping populace with a call to courage, honor, and patriotism for such a time as this. Fortuitously, Proser poignantly portrays what such qualities look like -- in the life of Steve Bannon."—Hutz H. Hertzberg, D.Min; PhD, Chief Education Officer, Turning Point Academy
"Jim Proser gives us a brilliant look into a man whom I knew very little about. From accomplished naval officer to Trump advisor, Bannon is a deep dive into this very complex individual, giving me a better understanding of who he is and why. Very well done." —Lorraine Baker, disabled United States Navy veteran
