so i had a couple more questions for bennett, so sorry, bennett, do you mind stepping back up. so it just occurred to me, so you -- there was a st. patrick's day incident where, you know, one of the patrons came out, clearly hugged your security. it seemed as if they knew each other, but it's impossible to say -- and then was involved in a street brawl and similar -- not similar, but clearly patrons of hue were involved in another fight here, and we can't say why for sure. i'm wondering -- i'm just thinking from my own experience, whenever we have a serious incident in any one of our bars, we go through the video and then we ask everybody who was there who those people are, and we make sure they're never allowed into our establishment ever again. do you launch -- do you know anybody involved in that brawl, and have you banned them, have you identified them, have you spoken with them ever? >> we don't know them. as far as people hugging, people hug me all the time every night. i don't know who they are. >> did you do an investigation to find out? did you ask people who work with

i would love to answer questions if you have them returning again to james bennett.his is james when he was a young man in world war i he was shot down over the north sea as a royal naval air service observer. he and his pilot landed in the north sea and the recaptured by nothing other than a sub noreen who pulled up essentially right underneath them. he was taken to germany and was one of the ten who made it home. in world war ii, he served as an agent and his family knew nothing of it. just to give you an idea of the impact of the work that basically served as the genesis, 573 british and commonwealth prisoners who count themselves behind enemy lines and captured escaped to freedom in world war i. over 33,000 escaped in world war ii, british commonwealth in america. you can hold it to large measure that they deliver but also to the escape lines but they created it was a remarkable achievement james bennett was a hero and children knew nothing about it. he died when he was 83 and had never spoken the service. then the lecture notes and even the compass that he inven

and i'll begin with the description of james bennett. now, james bennett in world war ii, actually, every friday morning he would go into his daughter's room while she was sleeping, she would unlock a locked cabinet that was in her room. he would take out some slides, he would take out some various gear like compasses and the like that he had hidden there, he'd put them in his briefcase, and he left before she was awake. he took a train into london, switched to a car and then was delivered secretly out to air stations across england. he was, in world war ii, an agent for mi-9, the brits started at the beginning of the war. and he would go and he would deliver lectures on the art of escape. and these are actually his lecture notes that he would have in hand when he delivered those the speeches. and in case any of you find yourself captured later this evening or later next week, the number one rule is escape as soon as possible. now, james at beginning of his lectures, he was a prisoner at a place where this great the escape that i write a

bennett: thank you very much. that is a rather a question. traditional understanding as truth being universal. fundamentalnding of freedoms such as freedom of religion and conscience, certainly in western democracies provides -- derives directly from a judeo-christian understanding of a human being and a person and the person's relation to an existential reality, relationship to god. so this understanding of truth is definitely something that exists in and of itself. it is something that is consistent in and of itself and is beyond us in a certain zest but accessible by us because we believe that certainly as christians and as jews and other faiths as well that that truth is revealed to us. so we have a particular understanding of revelation, and that understanding revealed truth, as truth as universal and from a christian perspective, we understand that truth is not a particular philosophy or a in thelar abstraction person of jesus christ, so we have understanding as christian that a person whom you have a relationship with and that grows as

let's start with my colleague jeff bennett over at the white house. president trump is getting ready to take his extended victory lap today. our peter alexander will be covering him. and the president is tweeting already, trying to keep his base fired up for this brett bounce. >> you're right about that, hallie. yeah, today, the president heads to council bluffs, iowa, where he's going to anoung brett kavanaugh but also talk about fuel. friday he heads to lebanon, ohio, to boost a senate bid and then he winds things up on saturday in richmond, kentucky. all of that coming after last night's purely ceremonial made for tv swearing-in of brett kavanaugh. look. instead of the president moving beyond the sexual assault allegations made against brett kavanaugh, president trump leaned in. he declared brett kavanaugh innocent. take a look at what he had to say last night. >> on behalf of our nation, i want to apologize to brett and the entire kavanaugh family for the terrible pain and suffering you have been forced to endure. our country, a man or a woman, mu

. >> joining us now is jeff benne bennett. he covers the white house. let me get a sense of the evolution of president trump's commentary beginning with a tweet. >> reporter: even beyond this. i think we have seen the president employ a particular strategy this week that's been marked by political violence. the first thing he does is he condemns the act. usually when reading and then he tries to create distance between himself and the perpetrator of said act and in the case of this heinous ooact in pittsburgh, he going a step further. he's screaming the resulting policy conversation on his terms. yesterday when hef was asked if the shooting asked a need to revisit the gun laws, the president said no. that has little to do with it. he then pivoted to something entirely different saying the nation should look at its laws surrounding the death penalty. he brought that up on his own. take a look at what he had to say about that issue and the suspected pittsburgh gunman. >> he was no supporter of nine. his anti-semitic tweets, people have seen them. very ant

bill bennett, host of the bill bennett podcast and fox news contributor, good to have you with us. what do you think the answer to that question is? >> i think, yeah, she's dealter with hef s grievious blow. i think she's done. there are smart people who teach at harvard law school even if some of them got in on identity politics, which i think she did. i've never thought she was a smart person. skillful, agile, quick other feet but this was a dumb move. when she got the results there had to be a critical moment in her office when she said there it is, 1/512, the average, maybe 1/1,000th. there must have been people sitting there saying we're done, keep it kwie e it. >> martha: exactly. >> but she ran with it. and it's preposterous, the average american had has more native american blood in him or her than does elizabeth warren. she is not only done great damage to herself, and obviously many democrats are upset about it, a few democrats running for report pleased with it, but she's done great damage to the cause of racial and ethnic identity politics. >> martha: let's play this fr

our colleague, jgeoff bennett i out there. the u.n. position, the slot that is open. he put ivanka trump in that position? the president says ivanka would be great, but he would be accused of nepotism were that to be the case. he said haley's done a fantastic job and will be helping to choose her replacement, essentially. the president also talking kanye. he'll be here in two days. >> oh, boy. >> reporter: the president says kanye loves what we're doing, said he's a smart guy, he's been a friend of mine and he gets it. so that sets up that nemeeting that should happen with jared kushner and other white house officials here later on this week. the president also mentioning, of course, kasie, a state you know well, iowa, ethanol, the new e-15 rules and regulations he's put in place. that's what he's going to council bluffs tonight to talk about. i hear the chopper is still on the south lawn. he may be taking more questions even as we speak. we will update you as soon as we get the tape turned around, kas. >> keep us posted if he takes any questions on taylor swift, woul

30pm, we'll be taking an in—depth look at the papers with our reviewers, author and journalist owen bennettd economic adviser with the arbuthnot banking group ruth lea. commentator: it's another one for sterling, no offside. and in tonight's football, england stunned spain with victory in the nations league. good evening. just two days before the crucial eu summit in brussels, the prime minister has insisted that a brexit deal is still achieveable. the sticking point remains the future of the irish border. the president of the european council, donald tusk, has told fellow leaders they should not give up on the process, but that the eu should also prepare for the possibility of a no—deal brexit. he said that was now more likely than even before. political editor laura keunssberg has the latest. my tea—making's not too bad... making deals, not cups of tea, are what counts right now. looks like you've been making quite a few cups of tea. brexit talks broke up yesterday with no agreement. the prime minister dropped into a project that helps those feeling lonely today. she must know what that f

joining me now is geoff bennett, and nbc political analyst phil rucker, and washington bureau chief and "usa today" bureau chief susan page who interviewed the president exclusively last night on the trip to houston. and jof, to you first, the caravan claims of going to washington and the caravan coming, and take a look at part of what he had to say. >> go into the middle of the caravan and search. and -- no, no. take the camera and go into the middle and search, you will find ms-13 and middle eastern and everything. >> you know how the caravan started? does everybody know what this means? i think that the the democrats had something to do with it, and now they are saying, that i think that we maid a big mistake, because people are seeing how bad it is. >> geoff bennett, do some fact checking first of all on the caravan, and the middle eastern influence or the democratic influence in starting the caravan. >> and in the way that the president so casually and implicitly links the middle easterners with terrorists is as problem problematic as offensive, and we saw the president there say t

senator bennett. to follow up on one of senator sanders' questions on the medicaid cuts, many of my rural districts 50% or more of the kids are on medicaid. what would happen to them if there was the kind of cut that he described? mr. glaus? these are counties that don't have other insurers, many of them. >> thank you, senator bennett. i'm not an expert on medicare, medicaid. we don't deal with those issues routinely in the insurance department. but there is some overlapping. of the issues, as far as the children, being, being suffering effects, if the money was reduced for medicaid, i think that we do have other programs in wyoming, for, for the children as far as the ability to obtain care through, through insurance for them. >> mr. levine? >> yes, sir. i think that one of the things that's a problem here, the differentiation, there used to be a great differentiation between medicaid and insurance. in the last five or six years, we've seen a major shift with even private insurance, where even if a c

let's start with my colleague jeff bennett on the white house lawn. jeff, the president is in this final push to the mid-terms, framing up the strategy that he will be using in this last sprint, right? >> reporter: yeah, that's right. last night, hallie, the president proudly labeled himself as a nationalist. it's a phrase, frankly, that some of his top critics have tried to use against him as they attack what they perceive to be some of his more nativist policies. if it wasn't entirely clear before, president trump is now fully embracing his political identity, that of a nationalistic culture warrior. take a look at what he told supporters last night in texas. >> you know, they have a word. it sort of became old-fashioned. it's called a nationalist. and i say, really? we're not supposed to use that word. you know what i am, i'm a nationalist, okay? i'm a nationalist. >> reporter: this explains at least in part why the president keeps talking about, keeps tweeting about this migrant caravan, these people coming from central america hoping to make thei

geoff bennett is joining trust the north lawn. the white house clearly focused on this fbi investigation, blasting out to reporters more about what one of the outside prosecutors had to say on this. let's talk through what we know about who is being interviewed, who is in the, and so on. >> we know this renewed fbi background investigation is underway and we understand that at the very top of the list is dr. christine blasey ford. we reached out to her attorneys yesterday and we were told that she has not yet been contacted by the fbi. doesn't mean she won't be. it's just she hasn't been yet. also mark judge, the man who dr. ford puts in the room. he is a witness but possibly an accomplice. there is leland keyser, ford's long time friend who said she had no recollection of being at a party. then there is also p.j. smyth. he is kavanaugh's friend. then there's deborah ramirez. she is the classmate at yale who alleges that kavanaugh exposed himself to her. i am told that investigators spoke to her yesterday. and then add to all of t

that is where our colleague geoff bennett is standing by in anticipation of the president at that rally. notably the president said he's making comments tonight and spoke about he would change his tone for tonight but he did not change his tone from what is typically trump, that you have coined his twitter trump. the trump that is not on the teleprompter. he goes and blames at media for the tone in this country. >> and i think when he attacks the media, alex, what he's doing, he's using the media as a proxy trying to neutralize the argument that he is in any way responsible for this current political moment, a current political moment marked by violence. and so yes, the president is here in murphysboro. it was an open question whether or not he would hold this rally. a number of political candidates in pennsylvania have canceled their campaign events in response to this unspeakable tragedy that unfolded today in pittsburgh. you saw the president say there we can't let these evil people stop us. the question is what will the president say when he takes the stand in a few moments time. wi

my colleague, michael bennett and i were sent here to work together. we have our disagreements, but we have always fought for the best of our state. and i hope that every colleague here will do the same. and i hope the american people can be proud of the fact that while we disagree, we will not let incivility prevail. >> [inaudible]. >> well, i think republicans need to continue to act just like they did. i mean, look at the way chairman grassley dealt with the committee in an even-handed and calm way. you didn't hear republicans on the senate during the kavanaugh debate talking like that. it's pretty clear what's contributing to this atmosphere that the senator was talking about. it is not coming from the republican side of the aisle. when you have the last democratic nominee for president saying incivility should continue until the democrats win the house? for goodness sake, i think we know who the culprits are here when it comes to the quality of discourse in the country, and it is not coming from the republican side of the aisle. >> [inaudible]. >>

jeff bennett is still there standing by for us. jeff, you mentioned that there's a microphone in place for the assembled reporters? one would assume the president is going to be taking questions. one would probably also assume he will get at least one or two questions about his supreme court nominee, brett kavkavanau. >> and i want to jump in. the point made about president trump being locked into nafta is a good one. there are some 36 states that count canada as its number one exporter. all among members of congress who have to ratify this deal have been saying they're not going to accept a u.s./mexico only deal. they say no canada, no deal. now there's this usmca that will most likely get ratified sometime next year. the big question is brett kavanaugh, the reopened investigation into the sexual assault claims. the white house counsel's office is limiting the scope of the investigation fbi can do. we heard over the weekend sarah huckabee sanders make the point that the white house is not micromanaging this process. even if you ta

geoff bennett, thank you very much for the report. >>> joining me now vaughn hillyard.in las vegas. i understand that you sat down with the vice president, with mike pence a bit earlier today in an nbc news exclusive interview. i should think he would have been aware of the shooting, and did he address that at all in his comments with you? >> reporter: yeah, good afternoon, alex. we're here in las vegas where the vice president was earlier today, and as these events were unfolding he was prepared to hold a campaign event. that event was delayed by about a half an hour. he addressed the events here in pittsburgh right at the top of his comments. it was after that event when we spoke with him. i asked him about pittsburgh, but i also zeroed in on the conversation about the way in which president trump and him, vice president pence, have contributed to political rhetoric in this country, not only over the last weeks but months in the two years since the vice president joined the ticket back in the summer of 2016, and whether their type of rhetoric has contributed to the la

joining me now is jeff bennett. one of the people in it often with the president in the thick of it, you published an interesting piece yesterday at some point the fact checking doesn't work. it stops mattering, particularly in the case of the president. he sort of just says things sometimes and they -- they sort of befuddle us. >> they do, ali. look, the president's public speeches, his interactions with the president over the past five days, he's making these assertions that are as patently false as they are easily disproved. take a look at what he said in just the past 48 hours and then we will fact check it on the other side. >> going to the middle of the caravan, take your cameras and search. okay, search. no, no, john, take your camera, go into the middle and search. you're going to find ms 13, you're going to find middle eastern. you're going to find everything. >> you said you wanted tax cuts by november 1. congress isn't even in session. >> no, we're putting in a resolution some time in the next week and a

with me are author and journalist owen bennett and ruth lea, economic adviser with the arbuthnot bankinghe prime minister is in a race to rescue the brexit deal, says the guardian, as theresa may admits talks with the eu have stalled over the irish border issue. the same story is covered in the metro, which leads with mrs may's insistence that any arrangement with the eu must not divide the uk. the story that's caused a buzz around the world is of course news that meghan is expecting, and the daily mail is clearly intent on enjoying every moment of it! the daily mirror also leads with baby news, with the added detail that that the duchess sought medical advice for her tour to the pacific islands due to the risk of the zika virus. the ft reports on the growing fallout over the disappearance of saudi journalist, jamal khashoggi, as president trump sends his top diplomat to the kingdom. and, ageism could be recognised as a hate crime, on the same level as racist and religious offences, under a review of the law. that's in the telegraph. so, a varied set of front pages — let's see what our r

. >> cnn white house correspondent kate bennett joining me now. kate, mrs.ing that the immigration policy prompted her visit to the mexico border in june. she says that she let her husband know, but we don't know to what extent she let him know that she was disturbed about it. then when asked about the famous jacket that says i don't really care, you know, do you, she had a response about that. so listen. >> i go on and off the plane, it was for the people and for the leftwing media who are criticizing me and i want to show them that i don't care. you can criticize whatever you want to say, but it will not stop me to do what i feel is right. >> what compelled you to wear that. you were down there, you had just been with children and put the jacket on. >> after the visit i put it back on, i see how media got obsessed about it. >> kate, what does she mean by that. meaning in the detention facility she was watching twitter or heard something about reaction and then wore it again? i don't understand. >> reporter: basically i was on this trip, i can explain. she

i want to dive right in with jeff bennett. you got polling data like this. what do we learn in the latest data? >> reporter: the latest poll gives democrats a nine-point lead over republicans. this is among likely voters when asked which party they want to control congress. you see it there. democratic control, 50%. republican control 41%. that same poll gives president trump his highest job rating yet as president. trump's job rating among register voters stands at 47% approve. 49% disapprove. that's up three points from a month ago. you have the unemployment rate at its lowest point in some 49 years. republicans give him extra credit for the brett kavanaugh confirmation and this updated trade deal between the u.s., mexico and canada. there is a flip side to these good numbers. even though the president is under water, political operatives say the president coming in to a midterm election in that 45, 46% approval range is good stuff. the flip side is that if republican voters see the president on firm political standing, they might feel less inclined to go

we loved having you matt bennett and nan hayworth.epublican dave bratt locked in a tight race with abagail sandbe sandberger. peter, what's the issue democrats hope will help them flip that district? >> reporter: it's healthcare. that is the one thing the democrat in this race abigail thinks will be her ticket to flip the seat held by dave brat. >> people are talking about rising cost of premiums, prescription drugs. overall there's a disappointment that this isn't something that congress is working to solve. >> reporter: keep in mind this is a district where just four years ago republican primary voters decided eric cantor was not conservative enough so they elected dave brat in the primary. now he says if he wins re-election, he would support chip jordan for speaker. spanberger said she doesn't know who she would support. >> dana: trying to defend his seat. >> reporter: he's trying to poke holes in the national democratic platform. >> there's no platform. there's no policy agenda. she came out hard on health care and then found out

jeff bennett, joining me right now by phone. one of the great reporters by the washington post. she's also an msnbc contributor. you have a warning about brett kavanaugh and his testimony before the senate. >> yeah. it was interesting, we've been working on this story for the last 72 hours, and finally confirmed a few key pieces of it, they are these. one that a federal judge who is a peer of judge kavanaughs and a republican, referred at 15 misconduct allegations against kavanaugh to the chief justice in the last three weeks. she decided that these were not frivolous pieces. she rejected a few as frivolous. they are warranting an additional investigation. in that time, justice john roberts has not referred them for investigation. it's causing a lot of heart born about why justice roberts would not move with some speed as he encourages others to do on the kinds of ethical misconduct cases, why would he not move forward? it happened to be during the fairly tense confirmation hearing. >> so the complaint concerns the intemperate language or accusati accusations, partisan accusatio

>> jeff bennett, thank you for joining me in the white house. once again, jay and laura, the missing journalist's fiancee wrote an op-ed and this is in obituary style in the "new york times." in recent days, i saw reports about president trump wanting to invite me to the white house. if he makes a genuine contribution to the efforts to reveal what happened inside the saudi consulate in istanbul that day, i will consider accepting his invitation. is it to the u.s. interest to find out what happened in that consulate, and if so, to what degree? >> alex, absolutely. this is a question to not only what happened to a "washington post" columnist, but it's about promoting human rights, about promoting freedom of the press around the world and protecting those who are actively doing that job. and the idea that you would somehow -- that it's somehow okay to invite a journalist with an american publication to a consulate and then an official capacity and have him killed in that consulate is just shocking that that is considered okay and that they would fe

joining me now is nbc's jeff bennett. he's following the president in murphysboro, illinois. what is the president doing in the middle of all of this? >> there was a question as to whether or not the president was going to even show up here. for a time today the president wondered allowed whether he may cancel this rally. he ultimately decided to show up here, and i can tell you the people here will be happy to see him, when we drove up, the line of trump supporters stretched about some 300 yards. the thing we're waiting to see is what the president says if anything about today's violence and the up tick in political violence we've seen this past week. the question is, will we see twitter trump or teleprompter trump. when i say that, i'm not being glib. i'm referring to an established ritual, where a political moment requires the president to view to the traditions and conventions of the presidency. he does that up to a point. today we saw that in the reverse. the president in the immediate aftermath of this pittsburgh shooting was asked about it as he was boarding air force

chairman. >> thank you, senator bennett. do you want me to go to you or to your colleague on many bills, senator murphy? >> thank you very much, mr. chairman. thank you all for being here today and your commitment to america's children and thank you for your very straight forward answer to senator bennett's question regarding the efficacy of arming our teachers. it won't surprise you to know that i disagree with senator alexander with respect to the ability that the secretary has to allow title four funds to be used to arm teachers. in title 4 there is in fact a specific permissive use of those funds for violence prevention and in that section of the statute it allows for the funds to be used under title four for violence prevention so long as they are used to build weapons free schools. that to me would suggest it was the clear intent of those that wrote the bill on this committee to deny the use of those funds to arm our teachers. not with standing as senator alexander notes there are certainly armed security officers in t
