This document is a transcript page, likely from a House Oversight Committee production, featuring a conversation between a Breitbart representative (likely Steve Bannon based on context) and a man named Harnwell. They discuss the 2014 election defeat of Eric Cantor as evidence of a global 'center-right revolt' by the working class against 'crony capitalists,' drawing parallels to Nigel Farage in the UK and Modi in India. Harnwell responds by emphasizing the distinction between authentic free-market capitalism and crony capitalism.

This document is a transcript page, likely from the House Oversight Committee archives, featuring an interview between 'Harnwell' and 'Bannon' (Steve Bannon). The conversation focuses on the significant political upset of House Majority Leader Eric Cantor losing his primary election to a Tea Party candidate (Dave Brat, though unnamed). Bannon highlights the financial disparity in the race, noting Cantor spent millions, including over $200,000 at a steakhouse, while his opponent raised only $175,000 total.
