Wolff met with Bannon during the nine months he was granted far-reaching access to the West Wing and senior administration officials to write a tell-all book about the White House, Fire and Fury , set for release on Jan. 9.

The revelations appeared to contradict Trumps repeated claims that he was unaware his eldest son, as well as his son-in-law Jared Kushner , had met with the Russians.
Bannon also dubbed the infamous Trump Tower meeting as treasonous and bad shit, according to Wolff. The far-right icon mocked Trump Jr. and Kushner for taking the meeting in hopes of acquiring dirt on Hillary Clinton, Trumps political opponent in the 2016 presidential race, as first revealed by The New York Times in July.
The three senior guys in the campaign thought it was a good idea to meet with a foreign government inside Trump Tower in the conference room on the 25th floor with no lawyers, Bannon told Wolff, according to The Guardian , which obtained a copy of the book.

Even if you thought that this was not treasonous, or unpatriotic, or bad shit, and I happen to think its all of that, you should have called the FBI immediately, he added.
