4:05 am
a governor to his wife when he has a husband too. as kids hope and gus he is bad too. as federal fellow veterans, he is sergeant major wall. the good people in southern minnesota for 12 years he was a congressman who is former high school students. he was mr. was ad is former high school football players. he was coach the ad in 90 days. the nation will know coach was by a new title. the
4:06 am
my 1st year's tonight is like tim was a man who calls minnesota home, and unlike jim was a man whose political home used to be the republican party. richard painter served as the chief white house ethics lawyer under us president george w bush. she su donald trump for ethics, violations of 2017 and left the g o p one year later mister painter joins me to night from yarmouth, port in massachusetts. mister painter, it's good to see you again. and there's a lot going on a lot to talk about. cumberland harris is chosen. minnesota governor, tim was as her v p running made. tell me what does a fellow minnesota, and what does he have to say about that as well. uh, tim was been gover, minnesota. for 6 years, i don't always agree with him. i'm a former republican and i share many of the views of the republican body before donald platt rose to power. but the 2 miles represented,
4:07 am
one of the more conservative districts in minnesota for 12 years in the united states congress as a democrat. and this is a district uh that the republicans won in the last election by 11 per savage points . a very conservative 1st congressional district in minnesota. so tim wall says dora is by no means a radical leftist when it became governor minnesota, with the support of the democratic former labor for english now controls both houses of the state legislature. he did uh help push ever through some legislation which could be viewed as quite progressive of what that being said. uh tim loss is a political realtors. mm hm. yeah. and he understands all that what gets done is what gets done back just at the will. the president of the vice president is basically also the will congress. and he's been in congress for 12 years. and i
4:08 am
would think that he could be quite effective as a vice president for pamela or mr. been, or do you agree that tim was um, will become the push that undecided voters in battle ground states need to cast their vote for combo la harris as well. the advantage of town wires, choosing 10 balls. he is a midwesterner, he's originally from the brass stuff, but i've lived in minnesota for many decades. his wife's from minnesota and he's represented the state of minnesota. and also i've been governor. uh, we need a midwest center uh in the white house. uh certainly, uh the president of camel harris. if she does get elected president, she's from san francisco. uh no, that's fine. um. but we also need a midwesterner. uh, close to uh, the positions of power the united states and vice president is very, very good. that's going to field of midwesterners. welcome phil,
4:09 am
left that particular with a democratic party which has a lot of strength in east coast and west coast, but not so much in the midwest. outside of the very large, tim was he was governor in 2020, with the george floyd writes took place republicans. they've accused him of waiting too long to call the national guard to protect public buildings and businesses. they are also putting him in, in the progressive lift category of those who want to define police departments. you put in your posted something on x, they called my attention. i'm gonna pull that up for our view is to see you posted . no, tim was is not anti police. only an idiot would want to abolish the police are defined the police. there are a few idiots in minnesota, but tim walked is not one of them. he wants to reform the police. we can and must fight racism corruption and crime at the same time. i hear what you're saying, mr. painter. but do you see this as the political, achilles heel of tim was that donald trump will target as
4:10 am
well as far as donald trump is gonna target uh, 10 balls, right? i mean, he can, but there's certainly no evidence at 10 walls wants to bar. so police or they fund the police, i would like to see more of finding a police in minnesota and we presently out of the city. minneapolis is definitely run by a bunch of left us who have interfered with the work of the minneapolis police department. now that being said that the police officer murdered george floyd was a violent a racist in balloons. in prison. we need to support the police. we also need to fight racism in policing and call for police reform. and the governor wall says, never ever call for defaulting, the police are abolishing the police. that's a very small group of people, extreme left wingers, who often don't even vote for the democrats that are looking for socialism, marxist or somebody else to support. also, of course,
4:11 am
you'll be also be accused of that, but there's just no evidence to back that up. do you think that we will see a televised debate between the vice presidential candidates, tim waltz and j events? do you think we should see one? we certainly should say one. i think all the candidates, major debate and donald trump needs to the bank, pamela harris, and not just insist that the device they own fox news. uh, one of the major networks abc and they say, you said they asked and hosted a bike, uh there needs to be several device uh, with the presidential terabytes and the vice president. you have it. right. so the american people can say what they're yeah. you know, the u. s. presidential campaigns are criticized for being too long and too expensive. and i know you're an outspoken critic of the role. the big money plays in campaigns, reform money wise, is not on the horizon, but this campaign sees it. it is definitely
4:12 am
a shorter one due to jo biden's departure just last month do. do you get a sense that there, do you feel of a national collective side that this campaign will only be 2 or 3 months instead of 24 months of paper? certainly very 2nd of a long campaigns and all the money and the dark money funding, the attack at all sides of the political spectrum. and we have our supreme court. thank for that because they've struck down the campaign finance reform legislation . while several of the justices are sitting on yachts with big, i may ask, uh, but the american people uh, want to get this election over with. and i think motors are more more aware of how big money tries to influence both of the major political bodies at the selection of candidates and then in their policies once they're elect. so i've got 2 questions for you to wrap things up about the,
4:13 am
the state of the republican party and the question about the state of the american mind of the 1st one, donald trump's grip on the g o. p is a strong today as it was in 2016. will that ever change in your opinion or will the party and with trumps the box? i think the republican boarders are getting very tired of donald trump. let's see how he does in this election. he made very well be biased, the to lose. he does a lot of the base cam lara's uh, and he's using various strategies to avoid it or buy it. he lowes is, i think republican voters are final and then i realize that they've been taken by the con man from new york city, the washer for town, but he somehow upfront of middle america. well, in fact, he's really rarely been to many parts of middle america and certainly have no interest in middle america before he became a candidate for president. so i believe the republican party will survive donald
4:14 am
trump on may some day return to the republican body. but for now, we've got donald trump in the driver's seat and he's come with the shops. he's driven people out of republican ball type, so you don't support him on the i think it's a very bad situation in the short term with the republican party. survive in your opinion. if it, the next generation were led by a j. d. vance. well, daddy vance has his own death. all these a, these embrace the political extremism on a wide range of issues. most voters of who i don't want to vote, republican don't want government people's business. yeah. telling people what to and if we've got government telling women when they can have a child or try to regulate birth control or to people who they can marry, all of that of the extreme right wing a social agenda that is embrace by today's republican body. a lot of
4:15 am
a more liberal, tearing boulders are, are just going to walk away from that. so there needs to be a serious discussion about whether the republican party truly stands for less government, less government interference, less government regulation, or whether they just want to be a big government full on a, uh, advancing just a different type of the government agenda. let me get to the 2nd question that i promised you about. maybe the state of the american mind. there were other contenders for the vice presidential spot. they included um, pennsylvania governor josh shapiro and the current us transportation secretary pete booted. you know, they were both white men, but shapiro is an outspoken supporter of israel, and buddha. jake isn't openly gay. man, in 2020 for america. are those the qualities that still or now now make you an electable, being jewish, being
4:16 am
a supporter of israel and or being a homeless, extra or no i, i think 1st of all the vast majority of americans, the big people support is. well, we don't necessarily agree with these rarely government benjamin that yahoo and all the policies are these rarely government. but we've had a close relationship with israel for many decades. and i don't see that changing at all. those who do not believe is really have the right to exist as a jewish state or to find the extremist minority of the far right and the far left . uh so i don't think that's a problem for governor shapiro. he'd only been governor of pennsylvania, i believe, for a year and a half, and then serving the state legislature a 10 walls had a much more extensive resume. and also, i do think once again, it's very important to have a midwesterner on the ticket. if you have a ticket that consisted of someone from uh, philadelphia, a shapiro, garbage repairs from the philadelphia area,
4:17 am
and somebody from san francisco. i think middle america can think of left a, a, a p, but a judge was mayor of south bend, indiana, but did not advance the state politics in indiana, an ultra conservative state. many ways. he's been a good transportation secretary, but once again to run him for president or vice president united states and really appears to be too soon. and he doesn't have a strong geographic base including in his home state of indiana. and what tim was, on the other hand, has a very strong geographic base through the midwest. that's not just minnesota and wisconsin, michigan, and he has a lot of appeal to traditional midwest centers. and i think that's the reason he was cho. ready and americans would have nothing of no problem with having a jewish president or vice president. and i don't think americans will elect any president who does not support our alliance with israel. that doesn't mean once again that will with the free with the is really government. mr. richard painter,
4:18 am
as always, we appreciate your time and your insights tonight. thank you. so thank you. now to the war in ukraine and the russian president vladimir putin and he's accusing ukraine of a large scale provocation. after las gal says ukraine watched a cross border attack into russia. russia's army chief, it says up to a 1000 ukrainian troops crossed into the coursed region in south western russia and advanced towards the city of zits. thousands of civilians were evacuated from the area. russia released footage of what it says are you creating and tanks and military vehicles on russian territory. moscow said that it was air in artillery fire power to rebuild the attack. if confirm, it would be the largest cross border incursion by ukrainian troops since the start
4:19 am
of the war. ukraine has not commented on the claims made by russia. if a more now i want to bring in frank lead, which he is a senior electra in strategic studies at portsmouth university, he is also a former u. k. military intelligence officer. he joins we denied from oxford in england. frank, it's good to see you again. ukraine tonight. very silas is this a major attack? what russia is saying? a local navy branch depends on the scale you're talking about. what's quite remarkable here is it looks very much like a mirror. i'll say russian concave offensive. that will remember from me about 3 months ago now, which is actually still going on. we're looking at the same amount will reflect a larger amount of taxi taken and possibly the same sort of full scale of full series by the crating us. the rest of that to use in the call kids offensive. so it
4:20 am
does seem to be a major and cost and as we speak, ukrainians have taken nearly, i think, $300.00 square columbus, and that's still pushing us the latest reports the russians killed at major a major and caution. it looks like a brigade. russian says the 22nd mechanized brigade, which is quite story though the last couple of years i experienced recently have significant reinforcements of electronic move that which they announced quite quite interestingly, plus or another couple of fatalities that so we're looking here probably $3.00 to $5000.00 soldiers involved in the whole operation. i'd say this is not simply a rate, it looks like something more than that. why would ukraine, why would it watch a major operation like this? is difficult to say. there are 2 major possibilities. the 1st is that they are currently, or they're the early stages of something that's been in the arrow
4:21 am
a little bit over the last few weeks. and hanks of it from you training come on route, most of what amounts to a surprise counter offensive. i think stability for that, but it's possible as the 2nd possibility is it's a, it's a diversion for even larger a salt somewhere else. some science operational tools operate the sample from top rated song around the nuclear power station. we'll see about that. and i the way it looks as if the ukrainians are trying to take round off the russians, preferably of course, in russia to provide themselves some leverage, perhaps against negotiations which i hope will be with the russians. a peace conference and around the time of the us elections in november. so there are a number of could be a resist flowing together if you like that give some logic to what otherwise might
4:22 am
just say my a rather strange thing to do. yeah. what were praying, talk me through that then. so this a, this attack is i'm a preview of, of what, or is planning pre planning of what peace negotiations or, or, i mean, so where we've got an attack that's going to lead possibly to an end to this conflict, is that what you're saying? its zaleski would like the russians present to note that, but at the next piece, conferences you will not, but they're not as russian. so the chinese tugged up at the last one i hope, is the russians will at the next one, which will certainly be advocating of negotiating, whether, whether that will result in anything snyder, who, who knows, it's crystal balls got closer to us elections, which is a 5 most of these important occasions, by the way, it makes sense for the ukrainians to, to, to, to set the state to complete the like, or at least set, set the set, the grounds for having something to give. now if they hold a few 1000 square miles of russian terrace at that point, which is rather doubtful, i think the reason would come onto if you like that and not give them something to
4:23 am
bulk it with knots. what somebody, let's just say say it makes sense. to me now though, i know the thing is less plausible as this is the reasons i don't think it makes sense, is that it is that the, that the ukraine is a trying to draw all russian forces from the southern front south. suddenly some front does not make sense. the tubs of the balance of the benefits on either side. yeah, it's fascinating the of what could be, you know, the impetus of this attack, do we know? was there any suggestion that something like this might happen or as it called russia completely off guard. this has been a suggestion of it in the sense that like i said that there's been this it. yeah. and it continues to be and i that, that brought you credit is a planning some form of counter attack. i top of that out. the non profit, something very big looking here off the divisional side. the also, the 2nd part of the question was the rest is ready for absolutely not. no defenses . these is forces call through the russian voltage show to or to spread out on 2 or
4:24 am
3 axis. now now are the advancing towards are actually in the village offices in the profit. so the last of coast, what that, what will happen though, is that gonna come up against the pad russian positions which shot their, i'm likely to brace it in the future. but what we all saying is, i know defended border, exploited by surprise. no question about that by 2000 you pregnant. so just let's see if they have the forces ready to exploit those advances. why do they even want to it's conceivable. they may just dig in and say, ok, now get us out. front, do we have any indication of what type of ukrainian troops are involved to you? i mean, we've, we've seen ukrainian militias comprised of russian citizens launching attacks inside russia before that's right. and you're talking close about the 2 because it's into the belgrade region, which is to the south of this one. this is kind of towards ca square the cost of
4:25 am
loss here. capital, which is the city of coast and the cost to place the great bulk of the 2nd world war. and this, however, is full of full ukrainian brigade plus a couple of times. these aren't russian irregulars or decisions, or gangs of on demand like, as the russians were described, belgrade, and cousin. this is a proper mechanized brigade, well trained, experienced, well equipped with what we've seen so far, so much more serious. i mean, any, anything happened in belgrade before? that was the main search. we'll see. so the, the russians have mobilized ground forces, not giving me the paintings a hard time for the arrow from drugs as we speak. adults, hillary, that will be contra tax. it may well be would be good but, but this is a very different thing from a bell growing cousins early this year. not last year. i mean, it sounds like this could be an event that would a, give the great need military, possibly some good news to bring home from the battle field. and how badly does
4:26 am
ukraine need that considering the problems that they're having with recruiting soldiers at the moment? yes, this looks a bit very much like the, the cock is offensive in late 2022 doesn't. it was a relatively small ukranian schools. scott stood poorly. uh and the very few russian forces became great. the loud. what, okay. here a couple of 100 square kilometers. now, when you look at it on the map, it doesn't look that great, but it's very significant the context of this war or so it is good news for this. no doubt about it. however, if you are fighting on the shaky southern and eastern fronts now down into the house, cadets, you may be thinking, you know what, we need those troops here to show up our defenses. but clearly ukraine training come on to see an advantage they, they saw an opportunity and we'll see if they reinforce that opportunity over the next few, few weeks or days or even hours. it's likely in mind you, by the way, this will cut into something of what we see of the russian russians doing to us
4:27 am
khaki by the holding on to a chunk of ukraine. the entire tree guys fairly said peter, it not, not location, ukrainian forces. it may well be that we'll see that mirrored in cost. it will how the ukrainians hold onto defensive positions in russia. and that in itself is quite remarkable. in inductively will do no harm to you. friday moreau. and as you say, you may give the ukrainians a little bit more to have in their pocket if indeed they do end up sitting down at the negotiating table to end this work with their analyst, frank. but which frank is always we appreciate your analysis. thanks. thanks but so you're watching the date, we will see you right here tomorrow. thanks for the company. provide. the
