stick and we're we're committed to it and we're sticking with it for more on this let's turn to steve hayes tonight he's the chairman for americans for fair taxation mr hayes good to have you with us the saving is this plan fair where is the fairness in this. and i don't think so at all i i actually think this is just more pushing things around to help the swap it's a lobbyist early christmas because look at all of the things that they're threatening to take away they're going to get tens of millions of dollars of people flowing money into the lobby is trying to protect their particular thing and honestly they're not addressing a huge issue that affects each and every one of us which is the growing income tax evasion which is going to be nine trillion dollars in the next ten years if you use government numbers so no i think this is simply an idea that we're going to act like it's good and we really hope that people like you and me and all of your watchers think it's a good idea because we sure do because we here in the swamp are going to benefit well there's no question everybody likes lowe

steve hayes, editor in chief of the weekly standard charles heard, opinion director for "the washington times" ." charlie, you look at and listen to the president and it just seemed like this was going that way. by his public remarks. >> sure. to me, sure. this is a washington disease. it's something that when people get here, they start to think that their travel is so important, their schedules are so important. they start making real terrible decisions along these lines. what makes this so bad is tom price was picked for that job because donald trump believed he would be very good at crafting a bill that would get to the house, get to the senate, get through congress to repeal and replay as care. on the heels of that failure, to have this kind of glaring embarrassment to the president, i think, was more than he could... >> bret: how much do you think obamacare repeal and replace factored into this? >> i think it had an enormous about to do with this. >> marie, what about people who look at this and you saw the piece by doug and say, obama and administration officials did these things

let's bring in steve hayes, fox news contributor. so let's start talking about one of these tweets. we put it up earlier, talked about the fact that he thinks he's done better with isis in nine months than the obama magician did over 8 years. your reaction wax makes people well, i think the president >> part of that is being clear who the enemy is. you go back and think about the way barack obama characterized isis, in particular calling them the junior varsity, downplayed more broadly the threat from jihadist throughout the world. the contrast with the way president trump talks about the threat, i think, is one that favors president trump. he's right to say that the u.s. military is taking territory back from isis. we should be clear that that doesn't mean we are "winning the war" or that this threat is in any way near over. but he can take some credit for that. >> he also took this opportunity this morning after that last attack in london in june to talk about the travel ban. we don't know the circumstances yet about the suspects in this particular case. a lot of folks raise quest

steve hayes editor in chief of the weekly standard joins us now. good morning, steve. that and talks about the fact she believes that putin had a personal vendetta against her dating back to things that happened under her husband's presidency. and she -- he is the top of her list. >> very interesting interview with susan paige of usa today. at times hillary clinton seems to try to be restrained saying i don't want to go beyond the evidence. i don't know what happened here but things are suggeststive. at one point she is talking about 160 mentions that donald trump made of wikileaks and attributeing some great import to the numbers and the fact he said wikileaks 160 times in october. she seems to be having a tough time figuring out if she should make the accusations and make the partisan arguments that would be exculpatory or more balanced and restrained and wait for the facts to come out. >> shannon: in addition to saying there were mistakes she made and she takes responsibility for those she also notes sexism, misogyny, we talked about putin, the mainstream media, she

. >> shannon: joining us now for more on this steve hayes editor and chief of the weekly standard.e've had our first bit of what we think we'll hear from the president today about the united nations calling them out but saying he has confidence in the direction. >> this is something where i think he is going to unite conservatives. unlike his criticism of nato and maybe some of the other things he said with respect to the international community, conservatives across the country and in washington are pretty well united about their skepticism about the united nations. it's been a cess pool of israel bashing over the years and the president is right to call for changes to that. particularly given that the united states does pay such a disproportionate amount of the united nations funding. >> shannon: here is what kellyanne conway says. >> he is putting american interests and employers and employees first. how it goes into a u.n. address like this is making clear he will always come to the table in good faith but these deals need to benefit americans. >> shannon: how does he thread th

steve bannon's interview. >> thank you. [inaudible] [inaudible] [inaudible] [inaudible] sunday in book tv, live coverage of the brooklyn book festival msnbc chris hayes discussing his book a colony in a nation, law professor cheryl threat to white supremacy come author and new yorker staff writer talks about free speech. national book award nominated author kathy a new on her book weapons of mass destruction watch our live coverage on sunday starting at 10:00 a.m. eastern on c-span twos book tv. saturday night on ten eastern on afterwards, david osborne on his book reinventing america's schools creating the 21st century -- he's interviewed. >> my argument book is that the places around the country that have embraced charters the most systematically are also the fastest improving cities in the country. i'm not saying make every school public school or charter, i'm saying if we look at the data and want to do what works for truth kids let's treat every public school like a charter. we can call it a district and a renaissance school, but let's give it the autonomy so people who run the school can really make the decisions and create a school model that

hayes, a.b. stoddard, charles hurt, opinion editor for "the washington times" ." steve>> i think it's potentially big moment. we have to wait and see the details, we have to wait and see where it goes but it's no small thing that donald trump's pressure on china has resulted in china at least going through the motions of saying they don't want to do business with the north koreans. it wasn't just that the central bank said it wouldn't do business with that the north koreans. it suggests to other chinese banks that they also not do business with the north koreans. that's it for just a big step if they follow through. the problem is it's a huge lack of transparency. we are not going to necessarily know this. >> bret: i asked about that and he said the dollars go through new york and we would with a lot more scrutiny be able to see whether it has stopped or not. >> i think we can take steps to see more. i don't think we'll have a complete picture but i defer to gordon chang. he knows more about this than i do. this is a result of donald trump's consistent pressure on the c

hayes editor-in-chief of "the weekly standard." mollie hemingway senior editor at "the federalist" and michael crowley senior foreign affairs correspondent for politico. steve, a lot of bullet points from pompeo that were newsworthy. >> yeah, i would say that was a neat t interview without public official who doesn't give many interviews. among the things that struck me were his news that we would be seeing the rest of the documents captured in the raid on the osama bin laden compound in may of 2011. that something, as you pointed out, we've been talking about it, and covering it. there i think there's going to be interesting documents here. even the 576 we've seen so far, we've learned a lot about al qaeda, its relationships, we've learned about its work with state sponsors. we've learned about relationships between al qaeda senior leadership and the taliban. what is the dawning that little glimpse of documents is give us an understanding of the enemy we are fighting and that we've been fighting for the past 16 years. i think these documents will provide a much deeper look at that. it will allow not only intelligence analysts but the american public to bet

steve bannon warn the president that firing james comey would be the biggest political mistake in modern history? >> when "all in" starts right now. >> good evening from naples, florida. i'm chris hayes. irma may have been downgraded to a tropical storm, but it continued to wreak havoc as it crawled up the gulf coast of florida today. bringing flash floods to downtown jacksonville, florida, where storm surge and high tide pushed the st. john's river to record levels. but most of florida bore the brunt of the storm yesterday as irma came ashore with triple-digit winds and torrential rainfall, knocking out power to 6.5 million customers across the state, around a third of the state's population. here on the west coast of florida, where we are, the damage thankfully fell short of the worst forecasts, but it's still expected to take months, if not years for the area to recover fully. up in washington, white house homeland security adviser tom bossert lloyd out the relief efforts. >> what we have now is a large scale area of operations. what we're trying to do is marshall the resources where they are needed. it's a prioritization effort. we are worried about flooding, housing, debris, and
