in 2013 at a time when pam bondi, the attorney general in florida, her office was considering whether or not to join a lawsuit against trump university, trump used his foundation to give $25,000 to a campaign committee supporting bondi. so that's against the law. trump has now admitted to that and paid a $2500 penalty tax after our story came out. >> also interesting is that trump was very critical of those who gave money to the clinton foundation and expected or did in his view receive some sort of consideration or extra attention when hillary clinton was at the state department. but we know that one of the biggest contributors to the trump foundation was linda mcmahon and her husband, vince mcmahon, of world wrestling fame, and president-elect trump has picked linda mcmahon to be head of the small business administration in the trump administration. >> absolutely right. vince and linda mcmahon gave a total of $5 million in 2007 and 2009. they haven't said why. that's an enormous amount of money for the trump foundation which has always been very small, and it enabled trump to basica

. >>> florida attorney general pam bondi, an early trump ally, met with the future president today, batting away speculation about a potential role in the trump administration. says she's happy with her current job. and a recount of presidential votes is moving ahead today in wisconsin. despite a lawsuit to block it. trump supporters challenged the count, calling it unconstitutional because ballots are not treated equally in all cases. and in michigan, the election that means it will start next week unless the courts intervene. if not, the recount requested by green party candidate jill stein begins on tuesday or wednesday. >> the presidential election just a few weeks behind us, and virginians are already looking at the next big race. the race for governor in 2017. it's one of only two in the entire nation next year, so the stakes are high for both parties. today, virginia business leaders got a look at all five julie carey was there. >> on the democratic side, lieutenant governor ralph norcome stands alone, but four candidates are seeking the gop nomination. two very familiar to northern

also we saw florida attorney general pam bondi going in earlier. she's a staunch trump supporter. former u.n. ambassador john bolton also expected in later today. a busy day of meetings here at least. >> kristen dahlgren at trump tower, not far from where we are. kelly o'donnell on capitol hill. thank you very much. today we are asking you this microsoft pulse question. top trump and clinton aides as you have been hearing about traded barbs at a harvard post-mortem election forum. is it time to get over the election and move on? head to pulse.msnbc.com. we'll talk more about the fiery back and forth coming up in the show. the bad feelingsfestering still after the election. whose fault is it? that's up for discussion and the daily debate. first president-elect trump rejecting globalization, calling on companies to bring jobs back to the u.s. so how does that play into our relationship with other countries? we'll ask former mexican president fox after the break. my business was built with passion... but i keep it growing by making every dollar count. that's why i have the spark cash

the trump tower today, senator david purdue from georgia, retired it admiral jay cohen, bob gates, pam bondy, john bolton, former u.s. ambassador to the u.n. who is up for secretary of state. perhaps the thing that caught most attention today was a phone call that was read out in the list of phone calls late this afternoon. that was a phone call between the president-elect and the president of taiwan. during the discussion, they noted the close economic, political and security ties exist between taiwan and the united states. president-elect trump congratulated the president on becoming president of taiwan earlier this year. there's a big dust up there because u.s. leaders don'ttie t leaders. let's bring in jonathan swan, leslie marshal and charles krauthammer. there's a sensitivity here, obviously, charles, in a non-political correct, say what you say, most people would look at this and say, you are making too much of it. in the state department world, their hair was on fire probably. >> and in the chinese world. the chinese are extremely sensitive about these nuances in diplomacy. they have

deemed to be an inappropriate political donation to a group supporting florida attorney general pam bondih that investigation. the trump foundation has been embroiled in scandals for years. and i think ending it is one small step in the right direction untanglining the president-elect from his legal conflicts. this is something the transition team is dealing with very, very seriously and urgently, as they should. one last thing is this comes right after the eric trump foundation was embroiled in a scandal just last week over seeming to offer access to the president-elect and his family in exchange for campaign donations. so it's just been a tangled mess all along. >> and something they want to put behind them. newt gingrich says, president obama is in, quote, a desperate frenzy, to save his legacy. >> i think president obama is beginning to figure out his legacy is like one of those dolls that as the air comes out of it, shrinks and shrinks and shrinks. he's in this desperate frenzy. what he's actually doing is sending up a whole series of things to distract trump, which will make his lib

ambassador john bolton as well as former secretary of state robert gates also florida attorney general pam bondi and the one drawing the most intrigue, that you mentioned off the top, north dakota democratic senator heidi heitkamp. she said she would be open to discussing joining a trump administrati administration. donald trump does say expect more cabinet announcements. of course we already know the one he spilled the beans on, his nomination of james mattis for secretary of defense. brooke? >> thank you for my segue, jessica schneider, a seasoned combat commander known as mad dog and warrior monk is the president-elect trump would like to run the pentagon. james mattis spent 44 years in the marine corps. he was in the combat l of fallujah. mr. trump couldn't resist bre breaking the embargo about breaking the announcement about the general that was supposed to happen next week. >> we are going to appoint mad dog mattis as our secretary of state of defense. but we're not announcing it till monday so don't tell anybody. >> let's start with chief political analyst gloria borger, jeff zeleny and m

i have referred that to pam bondi. our panel is to seek out the information, to report back, deliver our report to the speaker and to congress, and then actions further will be taken by the house or by the authorizing committees, but what we are seeking to do is to protect life, to protect scientific research, to make certain that the organ donor program, which is highly regarded in this country is not compromised in some way. to be certain that second and third-term abortions and that we are working -- that the children that survive, the babies that survive these abortions have the proper care and protections. so that is kind of the entire scope of the work. we were put in place by hr-461. we were given one year to do our job, and that is drawing to a close, and we will deliver our report for further action by congress. >> well, we know democrats on the panel were very unhappy with most of what went on. we've heard from them as well. we will continue to track and see what you referred no goes the next step. congresswo

"and justice for all," which was a political campaign committee helping florida attorney general pam bondi, who at the time, just happened to be considering-- her office was considering-- whether to pursue an investigation against trump university. they, later on, after the money came in, decided not to pursue that investigation. trump paid that money out of the trump foundation, which is against the law. >> reporter: finally, trump tweeted that his foundation "never paid fees, rent, salaries or any expenses." that is true: his children serve as the foundation's board, and the foundation is run by the staff of the trump organization, his business. now, that creates an efficient family charity, but has raised some serious questions. charities are not supposed to directly benefit or overlap with for-profit businesses like the trump organization, and that's one reason the new york state attorney general is investigating the charity. and all that leads us to what's next for the trump foundation. the president-elect has announced he plans to close it. but legally, he's not allowed to do that un

foundation made a $25,000 donation to a political committee supporting florida attorney general pam bondiallegations of fraud against trump university. of course she did not pursue the allegations. she did not file a complaint against him. there is discussion whether that donation influenced her decision. she says not. trump of course is not allowed, the foundation is not allowed to give a political donation. it's a non-profit charity. so trump had to pay a fine for that. but certainly not the only one. and it's a real problem now. the new york attorney general's office is investigating the trump foundation and they actually have come out and said now that he can not close his foundation before they are done investigating. i think trump would like to think i'm closing it, end of story but there is no way that is going to disappear anytime soon. patti ann: right, yeah. he, trump says he is talking to his lawyers and saying he wants to initiate the process but apparently according to eric snyder plan it can not happen until his investigation is concluded. walker says the foundation has a pi
