i'm saying for ari fleischer to be making this point people say ari fleischer's job is to sell sell -- and was ari fleischer says the press is critical -- meme i wrote theay book becausei want our democracy to have the press were people say when somebody says that i trust them. if somebody says that i believe it and i want to press to talk about what happened and leave the interpretations to the people. that's how it works in america. as i told editors of nerc times will become increasingly opinionated and jill edinson the former director of "the new york times" said op editor and i quote her in the book the newspapers in your times and "washington post" were simply anti-trump. that's wrong. and when people inside the media say that about themselves guess i'm going to amplify their voices and my whistle. it's not good for the country. i can easily and probably wear two hats. one is working for the company that are run a sourced company and two being a student and observer of the american media. i have a lot of experience and what i've seen in the media is what led me to write this boo

"the beat with ari melber" starts right now. ari, we made it. >> we made it. here here to what you said and we wish him a speedy recovery. this is quite a week, john. thanks for being here. good to see you, see you next week, bro. >> welcome to "the beat." i'm ari melber, and we begin with this breaking news. the mar-a-lago search warrant has been unsealed. we have it. you may have heard, and most importantly, as you see here, this is something we don't usually get. we've never gotten it for a former president, and we had no idea when the week started that we'd be going through it. a documented list of the things that donald trump allegedly took or stole, property of the u.s. government and intelligence material. we're going get into this right now. we start with what's in here. we don't start with the law, although it is the law that brought us this information. we start with the search warrants property and inventory list. lets take a look. you're going see at the top how this works. search and seizure warrant. you see that? page 1 of it. then on page 5, and

bush white house press secretary ari fleischer argues that mainstream media has a bias and is dominated by the left. he is interviewed by fox news senior political analyst and author juan williams. "after words" is a weekly interview program with relevant guest hosts interviewing top nonfiction authors about their latest work. >> host: ari fleischer, thanks for joining us today. >> guest: thank you. >> host: let me begin by giving you the p opportunity to tell people about the book, the thesis. >> guest: my thesis is that the mainstream media is one of the biggest causes of the polarization in america today. that the number of stories they put on the air that were wrong, most of all of which were to get donald trumpmb and hurt republicans or conservatives, the number of stories that they suppressed which would've hurt joe biden particularly during the campaign, have added up to a nation that no longer trust the mainstream media. our democracy needs to have i mainstream media that people rely on, believe in and trust. and the press has let us down. >> host: i think lots of people on the

"the beat" with ari melber starts right now. hi, ari. >> high, nicolle, thanks so much. welcome to "the beat." susan rice has served at the highest levels for presidents obama and biden. today she's touting this white house break through on student debt, and she is our guest later tonight. we also have bill nye the science guy coming up. and also making "the beat" debut is one of the few live witnesses from the january 6th committee hearings, an expert who stuck to the fact about donald trump's lies and found telling the truth can become something of an act in the maga universe. all of that is coming up here but our top story right now is about democracy, and i'd like to clearly tell you what we're trying to do around here. so let me tell you up front right now this is a little different than our typical start to this news program "the beat." right now i'm going to try to walk through the broader path of how democracy is in danger even beyond how that point itself has become a kind of rhetorical refrain in washington, a refrain that is also true. so we're going to go thr

"the beat" with ari melber starts right now. hi, ari. >> hi, nicole, nice to see you. welcome to "the beat," everyone. i am ari melber. we have more reporting tonight on just comply. that's the right wing hypocrisy over law enforcement today. mark claxton is here for a special conversation about just comply. that's coming up. before the hour is out, we will hear from the icon fran leibowitz on politics, democracy, and why she says mitch mcconnell is one of the worst things to ever happen to american government. fran doesn't pull her punches, and we will hear from her later tonight. so, i got to tell you, as far as i can see, there is something to get excited about here, and we'll goat all that, but the top story are the new details about trump's national security scandal. and this is one of those stories that actually, i got to tell you, felt slow for a long time women knew there was this clash with the archives. and then we knew the government was viewing trump as holding some important materials that were not his. that's also commonly known as stealing. but that was

you're watching a special edition of "the beat" with ari melber. as we track this breaking news, next we turn to the lessons from history and why some of them make trump look even worse. of m make trump look even worse but, at upwork, we found him. he's in adelaide between his daily lunch delivery and an 8:15 call with san francisco. and you can find him, and millions of other talented pros, right now on upwork.com woman tc: my a1c stayed here, it needed to be here. doctor tc: ruby's a1c is down with rybelsus®. man tc: my a1c wasn't at goal, now i'm down with rybelsus®. son tc: mom's a1c is down with rybelsus®. song: a1c down with rybelsus® anncr vo: in a clinical study, once-daily rybelsus® significantly lowered a1c better than the leading branded pill. anncr vo: rybelsus® isn't for people with type 1 diabetes. anncr vo: don't take rybelsus® if you or your family ever had medullary thyroid cancer, or have multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2, or if allergic to it. anncr vo: stop rybelsus® and get medical help right away if you get a lump o

"the beat with ari melber" starts right now. hi, ari. i've got to know. what do you think the trump people are going to do tomorrow before 3:00? >> that is a big question we're about to get into, john. i think they have a hard choice to make that merrick garland is forcing them to make that otherwise they didn't know they were going to make so i don't know if they even know. good to see you, sir. i want to welcome everyone into "the beat." you know what we're doing here, we're beginning with breaking news. the u.s. government searched the home of its former leader for criminal evidence this week. now today for the first time, the chief law enforcement officer of the united states, attorney general merrick garland, spoke out about that unprecedented legal action and he explained to the nation in brief, spare, objective and at times even honestly dry terms what exactly they are doing, and that this grave step was taken carefully after the attorney general says they exhausted the other less intrusive options and, he put it on record for the nation, that he p

hi, ari. >> hi, nicole. thank you very much. welcome to "the beat." i am ari melber. we have several stories, but we begin with continuing coverage of this breaking news. united states reporting on this strike killing al qaeda terrorist leader ayman al zawahiri in afghanistan. happened over the weekend. the news is breaking, confirm now. i can tell you what you may know, the president will be addressing the nation if about 90 minutes. the white house saying president biden will speak out on this. it is a fast moving late-breaking story, and for that reason we go directly to some of our experts on this. kristen welker and retired four-star army general barry mccaffery. wristen, what are we learning from the white house about something that apparently already occurred but is breaking news tonight? >> it certainly is. first we learned that president biden was going to speak at 7:30 eastern time to announce an operation against a senior al qaeda leader, and based on conversations with two sources familiar with the matter, my colleague and i have been able to confirm that

"the beat" with ari melber starts right now. hey, ari, what's up? >> what's up, michael? good to see you. welcome to "the beat." i am ari melber. we have breaking news. right wing conspiracy theorist alex jones just lost another round in the multistep quest for justice. he has been found to have been lying and defaming people. today, part one of the damages to the tune of $4.1 million. this is breaking news within the last half an hour coming out of that dramatic courtroom scene we have been covering. this is what they call compensatory damages to the sandy hook families, parents of the murdered children, and it's only step one. we'll explain that with live reporting. this is our lead story. it matters for justice, for lives in politics. here's the lawyer for those families just moments ago. >> the jury just returned a verdict for compensatory damages exceeding $4 million. that's a darn good start. we now have the punishment phase. i think it's perfectly expectable we're going to see an over nine-figure judgment against mr. jones. >> that is a lot of figures. and you can

. >> ari fleischer thank you for joining us today. let me begin by giving you the opportunity to tell people about thehe book, the thesis. >> the mainstream media is one of the biggest causes of the polarization in america today. the number of stories they put on the air that was wrong most of all were to get donald trump into her conservatives and republicans what they suppress to her joe biden duringna the campaign has added up to a nation that no longer trust the mainstream media and our democracy needs to have the mainstream media people rely on and trust and thef press has let us down. >> i think a lot of people on the left would say during the 2016 campaign it looks like c-span ms nbc or fox was very much putting donald trump on the air repeatedly would say it looks like the press was supportive of the 2016 campaign. rebuttal to that is the judgment that trump was newsworthy because the press but he was so bad and outlandish the more they put them on the air the more the american people would reject him but but also this was don

i'm ari melber. we have a big show for you tonight. donald trump's legal problems have been mounting after what we've seen, his worst legal week ever. we have much more on that tonight. later we'll also dig into a historic win for president biden, signing this major spending bill, once left for dead. and also tonight, i will be joined by a legend, rapper snoop dogg as he marks his 50th year, fresh off global recognition on that super bowl stage. it's unlike anything we've done before. snoop brought "the beat" inside his california studio, discussing two recent albums. why he says evolution is vital in life, his views on the current president and why he finds the civil rights legacy of the late tu pack shakur, will be airing today. there's much here, whether you like snoop's music, his work with martha stewart, or his undeniable style. that's coming up tonight on "the beat." the top story right now is this rising fallout from that trump surge. the fbi we're learning grilled two trump white house lawyers about what it slews as those stol

"the beat" with ari melber starts rights now. >> it's election night in america, and thus we have a special edition of the "the beat" with voters hitting the polls in five states. steve kornacki is break it down lye for us in just moments. you see him there with the first polls closing in just two hours. voters weighing in amidst these very busy times. the issues range from this week's foreign policy breakthrough over al qaeda to the first midterm referendum since the supreme court struck down the roe vs. wade protections. indeed, i can tell thaw issue is live in kansas where republicans are doubling down, pushing that vote that would green light full abortion bans. we're tracking that. the outspoken liberals are fighting off challenges. that's on display, where progressives saw some losses in san francisco, which has known as a progressive place. then there's the future of democracy itself today, with the republican party, in some places like arizona, deciding through its voters tonight whether the party's nominees for top jobs are backers of the big lie of baseless election fraud claims,

i am ari melber. let me start with this question -- is there evidence to support indicting former president trump? and what would that legal step entail? would it be unprecedented? why is this in the news tonight? we have answers we think to those questions in our new special report that's come up tonight in this program after our top story. we begin with the breakthrough for president biden. that is a top story, and by now everyone in the news and politics knows about this. it is a big deal any way you cut it. the senate passing the bill that's supposed to cut inflation, cut drug prices with new negotiating measures for medicare. democrats on offense today making public appearances throughout the nation to tout the very moment when the bill pass without a vote to spare in the senate. >> the yeas are 50. the nees are 50. with the senate being equally divided, the vice president votes in the affirmative, and the bill as amended is passed. >> as amended, that is the bill. the inflation reduction act. th

"the beat" with ari melber starts right now. hi, ari, happy monday. >> thank you, nicole. welcome to "the beat." i'm ari melber, and now a trump ally is directly threatening riots and unrest if prosecutors do go forward and eventually indict donald trump. >> it's all about getting him. they literally will be riots in the street. >> that is what the escalation sounds like now. it's an apparent threat with trump then amplified in a new post of that same clip to his followers online, you can see there. and this is not just anybody talking, it is a trump ally, lawyer, and top republican on the senate judiciary committee, so he knows better than to just blithely talk up -- warn of violence and crime as retaliation of whatever happens in the criminal justice system, which no one knows what will happen. senator graham going further than most republican senators. lately many have been trying to duck attention over trump's secret document scandal. but what is different about graham? well, senator lindsey graham is also a witness and a potential participant in donald trump's 2020 el

i am ari melber. i want to tell you off the top, with of a special show tonight, including a special report for you, brand new, on how trump lawyers keep getting in trouble, some indicted, often because of their client. i say that not as shade or criticism, but as an objective legal matter. they get in trouble for the things they do for him, not unrelated legal failures, which sometimes brings up talk of the devil's advocate. i will explain. our breakdown on that ahead. our top story now are the continuing clashes over the search of mar-a-lago and whether more information will come out about a path to what was an unprecedented search of an ex president's home in all of our history. today we're seeing a judicial ruling about releasing more information for the first time. this would be new beyond what we learned about the warrant. we have a written explanation of this ruling which came down where the doj can suggest redactions. some more information may be release in the a process by the judge. trump sa

thanks, mick mulvaney and ari. we discussed the possible -- potential obstruction of justice and violations of the espionage act, which we'll continue to dig into. that's what we're being told is the is reason, the impetus, although we don't have the affidavit. back to david spunt now with the latest at the justice department. david, what are you learning now? >> martha, you said it yesterday on one of the shows that i mentioned things are quiet at the justice department. believe it or not with this going on, things are business as usual here at the department of justice. attorney general merrick garland is at work. i checked again today and asked about the affidavit. that's something that we want to see. a this point, the justice department not moving forward to put in a motion to release that. the former president overnight on truth social or before midnight specifically talked about the national archives and records administration accusing former president obama of taking all of these archives and documents to c

"the beat" with ari melber starts right now. hi, ari. >> hi, nicole, thank you so much. i'm ari melber. today the judge ordering a lease of more information about the trump search. we have that story coming up. and later we're going to do something we've never done before. sharing some of my childhood stories with discussion from nardwar who you see there. i'll try to make sense of why i'm bringing this up with you. right now we begin with resurgent republican energy. it's a big shift from when d.c. pundits were recently saying things like this. >> this red wave that we're going to see in 2022 -- >> president biden answer agenda in democratic control of congress in jeopardy. >> i think we'll pick up between 25 and 70 seats in the house. we'll probably pick up about four seat at least in the senate. >> looks like it will be pretty bad for democrats. that was the talk. that had become something of d.c. conventional wisdom. the summer beginning with democrats almost fatalistic about losing the house. here are today's headlines. a shift in trends showing democrats daring to

why do they believe this ari because he's told them that the election was stolen ari fleischer says, that's not true. so what is the press to do when you see not only a lie, but the lie succeeding in persuading what was once, you know still a major american political party most of their supporters that the lie is to be believed. and right after 2,000 most democrats thought george bush stole the election from al gore and you know what the chairman of the democratic national committee terry on mccauliffe said that the george bush stole that election so, you know both sides do it want donald trump. does it the most donald trump does it more and does it louder than anybody else? but don't think donald trump's the first my book gives example of their example of the democrats who said bush slowly election in 2000 numerous democrats because of how close ohio was in 2004 said bush stole the election in ohio. i cite cases where democrats said the machines were tainted in wisconsin in the 2004 election. there are cases where hillary clinton question the absentee vote because i'm sorry the popu

>> ari, i think it is the right place for us to focus today. because this is an extremely serious step. and these sorts of cases that focus on retention of classified materials, when someone isn't entitled to them, are rarely prosecuted. but the cases where there is prosecution is where someone intentionally hangs on to those documents and shares them with someone else. the classic example is general david petraeus, barack obama's cia chief who shared code word classified information with a girlfriend who was writing a book about him and about other information. that results in a prosecution. so in this setting, doj had to have probable cause to believe that a specific crime was committed. they would have to in the search warrant application specify what that violation was. and they have to be specific about providing evidence that a reasonable person would look at, and not only believe crime had a been committed but evidence of that crime would he be found in the place to be searched. and that regard i'm very interested in donald trump's admis

"the beat" with ari melber starts right now. hi, ari. >> hi, nicole. nice to see you. welcome to "the beat." we have a lot going on in the show tonight. justice department expected to respond to trump's effort to have have a different review process for materials that have largely already been reviewed, so we're keeping a cry on that. i also have a special report for you tonight on the war on drugs, on lessons from the obama era, from attorney general eric holder, and why a new song is making waves all about this. sometimes we go old school. welsh this is brand new contemporary music. we're going to get into that as well as the politics. >>> also tonight, carole king, the icon is here with us live. we're going to get into her activism, and why she says she has something to talk about on "the beat," and we said come on over. it's a lot cooking here on this late august summer vibes. a lot of news, guests and a lot to get to. it ain't summer as far as the president is concerned. president biden going at what we calls the semifascism of certain maga republicans in that par

we know that alto ari was on his balcony when he was killed. and we have learned from the a p news agency that he was in the house of the house that he was in when he was killed rather was owned by a top aid to a senior taliban leader. we learned also that this was the product of 6 months of planning, highly secretive planning by president biden and a tight circle of his senior and senior advisors. rather, none of this information had leaked out beyond that circle, and they had sources on the ground who were monitoring. now they didn't say what kind of aerial drone was used in the strike. but this was a cia operation. and apparently, you are security officials here mapping out the whole compound, even making a model of the compound to be able to assess the area in this house and couple they were waiting since july and u. s. secret officials were able to establish a pattern including when, so ari would emerge on to his balcony for longer periods of time. so they were able actually, where he liked to zoom in on the moment that he was alone on his

i am ari melber. we're tracking new breaking news about donald trump's unprecedented legal problems. today, august 10, 2022, a former united states president pleaded the fifth, raising the topic of his own criminal culpability in a legal proceeding. donald trump spent six hours dodging questions at a deposition. you could see him leaving there in new york today. he stated he pled the fifth under the advice of counsel declining to answer the questions. this striking legal development, which we'll get into comes just two days after august 8, 2022 when the fbi searched a former president's home. both developments show the depths of donald trump's legal problems. neither means that he is in a legal sense guilty of anything to be precise. both mean that the concerns about donald trump's guilt about law breaking, about criminal evidence and criminal activity stretch from the highest levels of the doj to a separate new york probe to inside donald trump's mind. only he can make the decision that he made today

we appreciate it. >>> so ari, you mentioned georgia.elberg pleading guilty in new york with more to come for the trump organization. this big justice department investigation where they seized the documents from mar-a-lago. there is so much going on here, where do you see the most potential peril any way for more the former president. >> it is a great question, willie. i think people felt that is -- it seems like trump was on the run and building to degrees that are making it hot enough that they are complaining and he seems to be getting more lawyers and struggling to find them and you get that feeling. and i think georgia is very clearly the place where you have the most direct evidence from the prosecutors because of the way they have been talking and issuing target letters that they're approaching some sort of trump election conspiracy. and looking at people like rudy giuliani who carried his water in as they tried to find or steal 11,000 votes. as they look at the separate elector fraud plot, people are in jail for voter fraud. tha

ari, your thoughts on this?ere and there is thoughts on both sides. >> bret, i think this is wrong. when you ask for a loan the proper procedure is not to pay it back and expect it to be dismissed as if money is for free. when you ask for a loan you have a fundamental obligation to pay back that loan. and the government should not do this. why are they doing this one? why not taxpayers who have loans out to the irs? the irs has told a lot of taxpayers that you owe us money and we are charging you interest on it. should the government dismiss those? what about people who owe car companies for car rentals for car loans? what about people who own mortgage debt. should that be forgiven? no. the answer is when you apply for a loan, you pay back your loan. and for the government to be the one dismissing this is just irresponsible and also a fundamental redistribution of wealth from high school students, people with high school diploma to college students. it doesn't get more wrong. >> bret: all right, leslie, i want t

i'm ari melber. on august 8th, 2022, the nation learned for the first time in history a former president's home was searched by federal agents acting lawfully. it's the kind of news that just hit like a thunder cloud across the nation and really the world. unprecedented details still sinking in. >> nothing like this has ever happened before, and we don't know how this ends. >> breaking news courtesy of a brand new statement that just crossed from donald trump. his home in mar-a-lago is, quote, under siege, raided and occupied by a large group of fbi agents. >> stunning news overnight, the fbi raid on the home of the former president. >> search and seizure, the fbi descends on trump's mar-a-lago home. >> we have a breaking fox news alert. the fbi has raided former president trump's home in mar-a-lago. >> federal law enforcement authorities would have had to go to a judge and bring to that judge a request for a search warrant. >> we begin this hour with one word -- unprecedented. >> today we are in unc

it's insane. >> laura: ari, they had jumped through all of these hoops for this. i'm using this just an example of what they're capable of. this would have reduced strain to the grid. this would have reduced carbon dioxide emissions the way the plant is set up. it's brilliant. i was in minnesota for eight days. i read the whole thing. it's stunning. then the activists come in and they roll right through. if the republican gets elected, to sean's point, there has to be a full reform of the civil service. this is craziness! >> yeah, i don't want to object to that at all on the civil service. people thought donald trump, oh my god. schedule f the way you do this. and people are having vapors. it's actually true. it is meaningful civil service reform if you get out the partisans but a couple points here, laura. let's start with joe biden's tape you just rolled. one, he has a hard time putting in one sentence next to another sentence. i mean, the man is gets worse. two, he said that energy prices are going to go down? as a result of this, energy prices are going to go

also, ari, from getting the the infrastructure in the place action act passed. so this was something from a political timing for president biden. have some of that. he was really looking forward to. >> yeah, not a little distraction by any stretch of the imagination and the democrat. the republicans are going hall out calling for, you know, the doj, as you probably heard a of them calling for investigations and the depart of the democrats are weaponizing the department of justice. and we want to hear from christopher wray who was appointed by trump to beat the fbi director. what about the potential outcopes here, michael? >> i mean, it is interesting that this is a continuation of trump's demonization of fbi and the department of justice remember this is a department of justice told him you did not win the 2020 election we tr try to to replace him failed coup attempt with jeffrey clark. so this is pretty much standard. what's going to happen here is a lot of people are jumping the gun. there are all rushing to his defense. they're they're kissing the ring becaus

"the beat with ari melber" starts right now. >> hey, john, thank you. welcome to "the beat." we're tracking breaking news. the nation's about to learn even more about that unprecedented search of trump's home, because a judge has ruled that parts of the doj prosecutor's road map for that must now be unsealed and released soon. it's the affidavit the garland doj wanted to keep secret after releasing the search warrant itself. the doj arguing the road map was too sensitive to be released. citing witness protection and ongoing investigation. the doj lost that argument today. the judge finding that those prosecutors failed to meet the burden to prove the entire of adate should remain sealed, ordering the garland doj to file their secret proposed redactions within a week. so that's a loss for them on process and a win for getting more information about this operation, as a general citizen, if you are interested in learning even more about what's going on there, well, that's a win. most news outlets wanted the outcom outcome. trump also wanted that outcome. he went from hiding the
