one of the beneficiaries of the jared kushner pardoned shop was jared kushner's father, charles kushnerd of federal crimes involving hiring a prostitute so that he could secretly videotaped her with his brother-in-law to then blackmail his brother-in-law to prevent his brother-in-law from cooperating with investigators. that's life in the kushner family. jared kushner has said there is no one on earth he admires more than his grotesquely criminally minded of who, as it turns, there is a friend of jonathan brown's father. so, jonathan bronze father urging jared kushner's father to get a pardon for his son and attorney alan dershowitz calling jared kushner, asking for the pardon after appearing as defense counsel for donald trump in the first impeachment trial of donald trump, jonathan braun shot to the top of jared kushner's personal pardon list, even though prosecutors were pressuring jonathan brown to cooperate in another investigation, which he's facing possible federal criminal charges. jonathan braun and even more kushner connections and he probably needed to get this pardon. the ti

she was also jared kushner's banker, lending hundreds of millions of dollars to his business. then of course storm trump becomes president, jared becomes a senior adviser. doesn't all of this speak to how tangled this family is with one another in all aspects of their lives? >> absolutely. i think thanks to a lot of dave's reporting, frankly, we know a little more about how careless deutsche bank was in terms of basically how do we make the most money and we don't really care that much how. being with somebody flashy includes a presidential candidate but also a guy who's putting his name on towers all over the world and i think most interesting you will see the nexus that you focused on so often in your program between deutsche bank and host of other foreign countries, interesting ones, where jared kushner and donald trump seemed to have some powerful relationships as well. let's talk about deutsche bank and its relationship with the kremlin. let's talk about deutsche bank 's work all over germany. let's talk about how jared kushner was trying to get money in a lot of differen

according to the post, trump's son-in-law and former senior adviser, jared kushner, who has said he's time, he helped arrange the interview using his friendship with one of the top executives involved. on top of that, the post reports that univision canceled biden campaign ads that had already been bought to run in swing states during the interview. univision attributed the decision to a quote, unannounced policy change about opposition advertising in single candidate interviews. they also canceled a scheduled interview with a biden surrogate to respond to trump's interview. here is one of the reporters on the washington post story explaining univision's relationship with the company it merged with. that's the important part. back in 2021. >> a lot of the concern about this is that tele-visa has a long reputation in mexico dating back decades of being very friendly with whoever is in power in that country. and univision, when it was established in the united states, very intentionally defined itself against that. it tried to set itself up as an american style news network that was goi

kushner's office, announcing mr. bronze commutation. agreed to cooperate in the case, of course -- why would he. he had a giant get out of jail free card courtesy of donald trump. and just a few months after his release, when you know, braun was back working as a predatory lending loan shark. what is this all tell us. for one, it tells us that tough on crime donald trump offended the federal investigation by his own justice department. that's not how it supposed to work. it also tells us how trump and his administration ran pretty fast and loose with presidential pardons. a tremendous power that usually runs through a highly vetted process outside the department of justice. but not so in the trump administration. meanwhile -- is this old quote that goes -- for my friends, everything, for my enemies, the law. that is -- that's how he will continue to operate if he ever gets the levers of government again. mike schmidt, one of the new york times reporters who broke the story, joins me after a quick break. ke the story, joins me after quic

imagine if this is jared kushner . >> mr. smith spoke about $20 million for hunter biden, that he received, put in the names of different family members. i think the washington post debunked that this weekend, saying it was $8 million or $9 million, but let's say it was $20 million, 1% of the $2 billion that was brought back by jared kushner from saudi arabia to accompany jared kushner created a day after the donald trump administration ended. if there were no other evidence, would it be fair to attribute that to million dollars that jared kushner pocketed with the $25 million management fee every year, would it be fair to attribute all of that to donald trump because it is his son-in-law? >> not without any evidence. >> because the principle of american law is people are responsible for their own conduct and not the conduct of their adult children, is that right? >> that is correct. >> i yield back. >> the chair recognizes mr. jordan from ohio. >> mr. gerhardt, it was in a speech, he leveraged $1 billion of american tax mone

network hosted a very friendly hour-long exclusive interview with trump at his son-in-law, jared kushner know what is more shocking, that univision gave trump a softball interview or that trump let a latin guy into his house? how did that happen? did he think he was there to mow the lawn? but yeah, journalist enrique acevedo interviewed donald trump for univision. now, for decades, univision has been the channel that latinos have trusted for news, whether it's news about the world, or news about a sexy lady miner willing to go up against the most powerful woman in town, for amor. and don't get me wrong. there is nothing wrong with univision interviewing trump. in fact, i thought it would be a dope opportunity to confront him on his hard-line anti-latino policies. but instead of an interview worthy of univision, we saw this caca. >> the "new york times"/ siena poll came out this week. it has you with 42% of latino voters' support. that's unprecedented for a republican candidate. what do you think the message voters are sending with these numbers? it's at 42%, like i was saying, unpreceden

in 2018, added to that illustrious list was jared -- yes, that jared, jared kushner, son-in-law of thenresenting jarrett here with the order of the aztec eagle, again, the highest honor of the mexican government can bestow upon any foreigner. why did jared get that? as you might imagine, the ward set of some criticisms in mexico when donald trump was not the most popular guy in the u.s. presidency. but jarred had friends in mexico, in particular, the president of a very, very powerful tv network there called tele-visa. and that mexican tv network president reportedly help facilitate this very big, very prestigious fancy government award for jared. a few months later, that same tv executive that hosted jared, and then you mexican president, for dinner at his home. it is good to have friends in high places. last year, that's a mexican tv network televisa, run by jared's friend, merged with the american spanish language broadcaster univision. televisa and univision, they are now one big company. and that is apparently how jerry kushner managed to help get a big our long super interview for

let's talk about jared kushner. we know that jared kushner and donald trump's son-in-law. when he joined the white house, he was so unfit, and unqualified, with so many conflicts of interest, he could not get security clearance. his father-in-law needed to intervene, overwriting national security officials. right now, jerry is having a $25 million a year in fees. this has middle east policy in the white house. he intervened to give the saudi's $110 billion arms deal that was opposed by folks across the government. he supported saudi arabia with of the war in yemen. the saudi crown prince brad bragged was in his pocket. even his secretary of state complaint that this was inappropriate. jerry delivered for saudi arabia over and over again. he advised to the crown prince, and the $2 billion hedge fund investment. so, we know that jared kushner, donald trump's son-in-law, was doing a favor for the foreign government. this is actually an enormous family scandal that this committee should be investigating. gov. chris christie did it well, the grid from this family, the trump syn

in the days after the 2020 election, she and jared kushner basically washed their hands of the trumpte house. they decided just days after the election they were going to move to miami. they began looking for real estate, looking for a school. they did not really buy into this whole challenge the election thing. they basically humored her father and jared kushner, in fact, told republican operatives in washington. let him go through it, it will be fine. in the end he'll come to his senses in effect was what he said, and ever since then you've seen them try to distance themselves, not publicly. they're not going to make a big show of it. she didn't show up for his campaign announcement when he announced he's running for a second term. she's not really been part of the business for a while. they're living a separate life in miami and i think she and her husband are trying to sort of establish their own world that's not at least dependent on his. >> so paul, as we've pointed out, she was taken out of this case, right? in spite of the fact we heard letitia james say again, going into cou

she and her husband jared kushner packed their bags and relocated along with their three young childrenmiami. first, they rented a condominium at a pricey ocean front building where rents are about $40,000 a month. the condo was home until they built a new house on a lot of land they purchased for $32 million on the exclusive indian creek island in the miami area. ivanka and her family now live about an hour and a half drive south of mar-a-lago, the private club her father calls home. >> in order to make america great and glorious again, i am tonight announcing my candidacy for president of the united states. >> when donald trump announced he was running again for president, ivanka skipped the announcement. instead ivanka issued a statement saying i love my father very much. this time around i am choosing to prioritize my young children and the private life we are creating as a family. i do not plan to be involved in politics. she added, while i will always love and support my father, going forward i will do so outside the political arena. cnn has also reported that ivanka and jared kus

another one that you didn't mention is that jared kushner, the president's son-in-law who has not been involved this time in former president trump's campaign unlike his two previous runs did kind of intervene with the campaign this time according to our reporting, surprising some people inside the campaign to help setup this interview. and that's notable because during the trump administration one of the executives who was there when former president trump praised them at mar-a-lago was a guy named bernardo gomez who is a senior executive of tellavisa in mexico city who hosted a dinner between jared kushner and the mexican president during the trump administration. a lot of the concern about this is tel avisa has a long record in that country. and univision when it was established in the united states very intentionally defined itself against that. it tried to set itself up as an american style news network going to talk truth to power and be aggressive. and for years there's been a give-and-take. a lot of the programming on univision are tell avisa'stela novellas which are really pop

slept in jared kushner's bedroom as a child. if the roles were reversed, and donald trump was president, today like he would like to be a year for now, here is someone who covered donald, trump do you think that he will have the ability to work with another world leader that add such a working, close correlation ship with his predecessor, someone from the other party. we keep thinking, i know what the world look like without power, that made me think about when he talked about netanyahu asking biden for help, and he's getting it. >> it's actually a good certified hypothetical in the sense that it's almost inconceivable. you can't imagine trump, the patient or long work of diplomacy is just so alien to what you think of as donald trump. he likes to make pronouncements, the man that hamas through this and that, or he'll bond them into oblivion and fire a fury, like you have never seen. that, generally speaking, does not result in hostages being released. during the four years of the presidency, there is no example that is of a com

according to the times brawn was put on trial by charles kushner, the father of trump's sunday and whitese provider jared kushner and he heard a broader investigation buy his own doj into predatory lending. in an interview with the "times," brawn said he did not know how his commutation was decided is and described a picture of hymn and his wife with donald trump as a chance encounter at one of his gulf clubs. we'll have more on "morning joe" this morning. >>> meanwhile a former minneapolis police officer accused of killing george floyd recovered. on friday derek chauvin was stabbed at a federal correction at institution in tucson, arizona. the fbi confirmed an uncars rated vick was assault at12:30 local time. he was suffered from life-threatening injuries and was taken to the hospital. on saturday it was confirmed in a statement that chauvin is expected to survive. in 2021 he was convicted of murdering floyd, a minnesota resident accused of trying to use counterfeit money at a convenience store. chauvin was sentenced to 22 years in prison. last year he was convicted on federal charges a

and basically, he was picked by paul manafort to curry favor with jared kushner, endured kushner me forause he put a sleazy dad in prison. a weird series of events had to happen. and of course pence had to throw away everything he ever said to he believed in to go with donald trump. this was a guy that was a shock stop right wing christian dj who ended up running with the guy now talking about having sex with his daughter. he didn't seem troubled by that it. all i, for one, find a very difficult to consider mike pence any sort of heroic figure because he didn't go along with the coup on january 6th. >> yeah, i find it one of the most absurd uses of the word hero possible. he didn't commit a crime. hero. standing ovation for the hero who refused to commit a crime. knowing that he'd get caught committing the crime also, by the way. stuart, the end of the pence campaign is one of the very few things that i have found notable. just as a historic note, in this republican campaign, which does not make it into anywhere near the top priorities of this program now, with the war on both in ukrain

. >> well, abbe lowell was no, he was jared kushner's lawyer. >> that's right. >> but with hunter bidenked the committee questions? could this backfire on him? >> there is certainly that risk. and that's why as we talk about abbe lowell, there's been a little bit of friction between the hunter biden's legal team and maybe what some advisers in the white house would want. they might want to see a less aggressive approach. but that is abbe lowell's style. you mentioned that he's represented not just jared kushner, but senator bob menendez in the past, a number of high-profile clients. this is his tactic of choice. and it's one that hunter biden, interestingly, as embraced. i've heard from the biden family in a number of different contexts that when they are in a fight, they rallied together. and i'm so fascinated by the timing of this announcement, staff, because it comes just days after we saw hunter biden spending days with his father during the thanksgiving holiday in nantucket. we know president biden talks to his son most days, if not every day, if not multiple times a day. and you c

another one that you didn't mention was the jared kushner presidents son-in-law who has not really beeninvolved this time in former president trump 's campaign, unlike his two previous rounds. he did kind of intervene with the campaign this time, according to our reporting, summarizing some people inside the campaign to help set up this interview. and that is notable, because during the trump administration, one of the executives who was there when former president trump praised them at mar-a-lago was a guy named bernardo gomez who is a senior executive of tel aviv in mexico city, who actually hosted a dinner between jared kushner and the mexican president during the trump administration, pella visa, i mean, a lot of the concern about this is that olivia has a long reputation in mexico dating back decades of being very friendly with whoever is in power in that country. and univision, when it was established in the united states, very intentionally defined itself against that. tried to set itself up as an american style news network that was going to talk truth to power, that was going t

jared kushner was involved in a transaction years ago where he owned part of the business that rosemaryeutsche bank employees bought an apartment from him. that is an enormous conflict of interest. yet that happened and the bank's going, golly gee, we didn't know. nonsense. >> back to 2011, donald trump had other banks, we're not doing business with this guy. >> it takes me back to 2008 and the collapse of the world market, because i don't know that we talk enough about the larger story here, which is that wall street and the banks, though highly regulated, essentially helped make this enormous threat to democracy. i mean, they backed this fantasy that this was a man who was a successful businessman, who clearly was a showman and continues to be, but none of it was real. and piece by piece, we're sieging the dominos fall in this civil trial. it feels all kind of smoke and mirrors. and yet, wall street backed him and backed this fantasy. i do think that there's not enough conversation about the moral failure, not that you're going to take that to the bank. >> in 2008, it wasn't just the

did hear something. the news that i would like to hear your opinion about, we all watched uh jared kushner on fox news on sunday during his appearance at the saudi future investment initiative in riyad, and i quote what he said, he said that despite palestinian attempts to blow up the expansion of the abraham accords, the kingdom of saudi arabia is still interested in normalizing diplomatic relations with zinist israel, and he said, and i quote here, saudis would like to see israel accomplished. mission to make sure hamas could be eliminated, how do you respond to that? he's a dreaming, he's a dreaming. hamas is part of the palestinian people. hamas, not just is not only just a smaller group. hamas is part of the palestinian people, part of his cultures, the resistance, not not only hamas, even the resistance, refusing the occupation is a part of the culture of the palestinian people, they will never defeat the palestinian people. hamas will stay strong, and i think we are. our brother in saudia to think in different way to stop any communication with the this genust internet because it is

exchange for money, this is in in principle, trump’s slogan was at one time, and his sons-in-law jarard kushnerle more and more angry, in addition, coalitions are being created between turkey and iran, which, let’s say, want to firstly seize the initiative for a truce, speaks out very harshly recently, and recently the turks began to write: about the fact that israel, and due to the weakness of its army, began to recruit into the ranks of the idf, mercenaries from the pkk and various other organizations, which turkey, kurdish, i mean, which turkey considers terrorists in response to which, now there are skirmishes between experts, turkish and israeli, who accuse that it is the other way around, syrian mercenaries are fighting on the side of the palestinians, who at one time were part of various opposition groups supported by turkey, so the situation is very... blinkin's trip is becoming more complicated, like last time, it led to little, in my opinion, i may be pessimistic about this, but i wonder if it will help change something, please, well, it should be noted that the situation is somewhat

and because it was her husband jared kushner who introduced her to the private wealth management divisionst rates than a typical commercial real estate loan. and part of that meant that donald trump had to act as a guarantee for those loans, he had to hold a minimum net worth, he had to prove his liquidity. and so that is where his financial statements come into play. but ivanka trump, as prosecutors are trying to get better insight into what those conversations with the banks were, has, as i said, numerous times said she doesn't recall sending certain e—mails, doesn't recall having certain meetings, that she didn't recall knowing much about her father's financial statements. so it has been an interesting morning, as prosecutors try to nail her down on significant details and specific conversations. just briefl , specific conversations. just briefly. in _ specific conversations. just briefly, in about _ specific conversations. just briefly, in about 20 - specific conversations. just briefly, in about 20 seconds, just explain how she was a witness today but initially was a defendant? that'

larry: i am sure that is right, one second, a quick quote from jared kushner. >> one of the ironies aserican-jew you are safer in saudi arabia than in a college campus like columbia. larry: those are tough words you. amazing, to me, it is rich schools the elite schools, the ivy leagues, we went to them, it is ucal berkeley, hold on. it is the elite schools, the wealthy schools they have the weakest leadership and most crazy faculty and kids, why is this, what is wrong? this is a sickness. >> i think this is a lot of this is where their funding comes from, is their -- i went to columbia in 1970s. we were having these debates then. but here is what is different, in 1970s, we would have robust debates about israel, i found the debates offensive, ideologically but i never fimenfelt threatened. i never felt someone was going to punch me, that is what is happening today. larry: in "wall street journal" editorial, anti-defamation lead reports. 312 incidents recorded. and including a car carrying individuals with palestinian flags allegedly swerving toward a jewish family and several alleged a

building, and helped to introduce the trump organization to deutsche bank through her husband jared kushner, and she is going to be asked about the deals and the financial statements and i obtained a excerpt from her videotaped deposition, and this is how she handled the questions. >> do you have any recollection of your father having personal financial statements? >> not specifically. >> what about generally? >> well, see, i combine them all in my mind, like the statements of the company and so, i -- no, i mean, not like specific to him. look, i have my own, i have never prepared one. i don't know. i have never made one. i'm not an accountant. >> that is the commenting that we have heard from trumps. they were not involved in the preparations, and they have relied on the accountants, and so they are saying that the testimony could continue on into thursday. >> so they have put the other two children on the stand and why do they want her to witness stand? >> they want her testimony as to the other promperties, and she won't say much about the financial statements, and unlike don jr. or eric

she and her husband jared kushner live in miami. they don't work in politics. and really for all intents and purposes are not around donald trump very much. and that is how many people around ivanka have said they want to keep it. so we have not heard that. but i have heard from sources close to donald trump who said he's been particularly angry that his children have been involved in this case, that they are taking the stand. of course they will be watching to see what happens tomorrow. >> kristen holmes, hope you enjoy your time in the city of progress. hialeah, florida. thanks so much. let's get some perspective now from cnn legal analyst and former federal prosecutor elliot williams. elliot, let's start with ivanka trump taking the stand. what are prosecutors trying to accomplish with her? >> sure. now, to be clear, she was a defendant in the case initially but they ultimately for statute of limitations issues because the claims against her were pretty old, so they had to take her out. so she is appearing as a witness. now, i say all that to make the note t

he was jared kushner's lawyer. he is probably one of the top dc attorneys.y question is, what is his strategy here? we'll do the public hearing but we don't want to do the deposition part and maybe hand over information you are looking for. will that work? >> it is not going to work. bluster, bravado, intimidation. a subpoena is an order. the law compels you to comply. you don't get to dictate terms. as you say, hunter biden thinks he is special and above the law. he is trying to avoid a deposition where tough questions by smart investigators who work for the committee members, they know the facts. they would confront hunter with the truth about his corrupt schemes. financial records don't lie. the committee, to their credit, has amassed volumes of incriminating evidence of bribery, money laundering, tax fraud, foreign lobbying crimes. if hunter biden lies under oath, that's even more crimes. that's the reason he is demanding a public hearing. he knows that probing questions are rare. members grandstand with their speeches but he also wants the usual biden s

and she was in touch with a number of bankers, and then her husband jared kushner introduces her to a woman who was formerly at deutsche bank in charge of the personal wealth portfolio, private client division, it's for high-net-worth clients. they offer her a rate that is so low that ivanka says i don't even want to negotiate this because there's no way we can do better. it was somewhere around 2%. and the catch was they had to guarantee it with donald trump's statement of personal financial worth, and that he had to repeatedly certify that he was worth what he said. so she made that agreement, they got this much better rate with that guarantee. but the underlying statement -- >> and that's right. but also just to point out, i guess what you're saying is the documents spoke for themselves. she may not have recalled, but that's all on paper in black and white. >> she said about every document, i don't remember, i don't specifically recall. but there she was with this, in black and white, and what was so interesting is that the minute she was asked about, okay, well, what about these s

look at the billions that trump and kushner got from the saudis and from china while in office. host: jim talked about the majority the republicans in the house currently hold. that may come into play in concerning george santos. the chair of the house committee from mississippi is expected to introduce an expulsion at 9:00. look out for that. factor that in if you wish what it comes to this grade for congress. it was senator lankford and representative jodey arrington of texas taking a look at ways they think that congress can improve, or at least improve its service to the peopl they write,u wa to see a grumpy member of congress, talk to them on weekend when they are stuck in d.c., missing their child's game. when you take away time you have everyone's undivided attention. we have proposed several safeguardsevenendless continuing resolutions. our solutions includes a quorum ll vote seven days a week preventing campaign funds from trave our bipartisan, bicameral wch shift the pressure point from shutting down the governmt shutting in the politicians. that way lawmakers will fee

well, what do you think jared kushner -- his grift was $2 billion from the saudis and you give me a hard time because i got $10,000 from a stupid donor who should have known better than to trust me. that's essentially what he's been saying. >> you have written a book that talks about sort of the decline of the republican party and the sort of madness of it. is that what it is? that the party has turned into a giant grift and a tv show or a tv show for fox or for online, and that is the reason that they're attracting people like george santos, because he does seem to be emblematic of something about the republican party that isn't unique to him? >> yeah, i mean, there's no character in american psychosis who matches george santos. but it does show that the party has always -- which has always had a big grifting element, with trump, grift became front and center. as did, you know, the lack of shame. you know, a lot of politicians are shameless, but donald trump kind of paved the way to a greater level. and kind of opened the door for george santos. and the fact that the republican party co

she went in there with ivanka and a jared kushner, trying to replace mike pence but trump would not throw pence overboard. i don't know if it will be different this time or if trump won't be the nominee. at this point it seems like he's there. >> it seems like the only thing that would keep trump from being the nominee would be told by a judges been found gil i at this and has to -- guilty and has to go to jail. that doesn't seem plausible. i don't see how we get from here to there. which to me says that he is going to be the one on the ticket. maria: where does nikki haley go. she's getting support from corporate america, jamie dimon, ken griffin, they're talking about her policies as being the best. >> we can have a logical conversation about this. it would seem logical nick kaye heyly as -- nikki haley and the frfrontrunner, it would seem logical but the thing about mr. trump, he's often p not logical. that might arguably be one of his strengths. the fact he was able to keep people like xi on the defensive, keep iran on the defensive, even putin on the defensive because no one knew wha

bank would lend money to the trumps for the old post office building, for the golf resort, jared kushner basically came up with the idea of reaching out to rosemary, who his family had known for a while. and rosemary had fairly recently joined deutsche bank, was trying to make a name for herself there, and the bank itself was trying to make a name for itself in the united states. and apparently thought to itself what better way to do that then getting in bed with the trump family. so they were all too eager, i think, to throw hundreds of millions of dollars at the trump family. and, you know, one of the interesting things i learned while reporting on deutsche bank over the years is that they realized, to a certain extent, that the financial figures th the trump organization was providing them were somewhat inflated. i'm not sure how inflated they realized they were -- >> they knew it was to an extent, but they also wanted his name. deutsche bank had no presence inhe u.s.. they had a huge golf tournament at the end of the summer. they wanted some big names there. and trump was happy to go

disturbing i spoke with senior advisor the former senior advisor to president trump over the weekend jared kushnerent to the middle east he went to saudi arabia and he spoke with the leadership in saudi and he said the saudi arabians want to get back into the abraham accords but what he said to me about being jewish himself was stunning, watch this. >> what are the ironies as an american jew, you are safer in saudi arabia right now the college campus at columbia university, i spoke at the conference, they allowed me to speak freely and what i sense there is obviously a very big discussed that would happen with the tremendous terrorist attack perpetrated by hamas. the people of saudi arabia have a lot of care for the palestinian civilians so they would like to see israel accomplish the mission to make sure that the hamas can be eliminated they are against terrorism in the region in general. maria: he said the saudi's want to join the abraham accords and yet the attacks on jews across the country continues, what can we do about it? >> i think unfortunately he might be right that i don't accept the s

what they didn't know is that jonathan braun, relying on his family's ties to the kushners, were alsor a commutation and were successful on that. >> so this is interesting. and there are two interesting points here, frank. one is the legal matter, and that is if his -- braun's sentence were not commuted, he may have been cooperating and testifying in an investigation that remains unfinished to this day. but the bigger one might be the one that mike just made, and that is if you know people like the kushners or you've got a lawyer who's in trump's orbit things work differently for you. >> yeah, indeed. and while we've seen something like this occasionally in past administrations and there's controversial pardons throughout the history of presidential administrations, what we haven't seen is a complete abandonment of the justice process, meaning as mike said you don't even vet candidates for pardon. we've even heard from attorney general barr on this topic. former attorney general barr has said look, he contacted -- the white house said you're issuing pardons faster than we can process

just as jared kushner told us right here last week with. >> one of the ironies is that as an americanre safer in saudi arabia right now than you are on a college campus like columbia university. i spoke at the conference, they allowed me to speak freely. maria: but as attacks on jews rise and anti-semitism spikes, the biden administration creates a plan to stop islamophobia and puts kamala harris in charge of it. coming up, former housing and development secretary and retired neuroto prosurgeon dr. ben carson on a divided america and why he is endorsing donald trump's return to the white house as the form former leaves joe -- leads joe biden in five of the six swing states despite four indictments, a gag order and ahead of testimony tomorrow. it's all right here, right now on "sunday morning futures." ♪ ♪ maria: and we begin this sunday morning with potential corruption at the highest levels. house oversight committee chairman james comer revealing new evidence this week of what he says is influence peddling and potential bribery by joe biden and his family. the latest evidence is thi

andrea bernstine is the author of " oligarchs: the kushners, american the trumps, and the marriage ofower." she has been in the courtroom, covering the trial for npr, and she joins us now. so the judge asked him to keep his or marks brief, and at one point said this is not a political rally. what was it like in the courtroom today? andrea: not like a political rally, we were in a much smaller room than many people saw donald trump in and he did not control the discourse, he had to stand when the clerk said all rise and swear to tell the whole truth. it's something we haven't seen from donald trump since he has been president, since he was president, since he has not testified under oath in real time and that's what we got to see today. geoff: the judge has already decided the trump organization's financial statements were filled with fraud and that is central to this lawsuit the new york attorney general letitia james has brought. here's what she told attorneys today. >> he rambled, hurled insults, buwe expected that. at the end of the day, the documentary evidence demonstrated that i
