August 15, 2018 at 8:45 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard
Steve Brannon is forming a group to try to sell voters on a midterm message that they should support Republicans to defend the Trump agenda and save the president from impeachment, the New York Times reports.
The group, Citizens of the American Republic, is Mr. Bannons new vehicle after he was pushed out of the White House last summer and then parted ways with the conservative website Breitbart.
Mr. Bannon declined to describe his donors or how much money the group has raised. One person close to the group said that Rebekah Mercer, the hedge fund billionaire who supported Mr. Bannons previous political efforts but broke ties with him months ago, has no role.
