received a lot of different awards during this tour, and in particular the award from the hillary clinton foundationwhich is received for exceptional leadership in recognizing the important role of women in creating a more peaceful and secure world, you received it together with other three ukrainian women, in particular, from the first lady who personally this award means to you well, i will start by saying that any awards, honors that we receive, this is for ukraine, it is an opportunity that must be used, that people stopped dying at the front, that people stopped dying in the occupied territories and in the rear, and this award is special because she emphasizes the role of women, and women are ukrainian women. they are now at the forefront of this struggle for freedom and democracy in various spheres of society, and they convincingly prove that bravery and courage have no gender. that's for sure. thank you for these words, we also have another ceremony of the human rights award, wright, the left-wing doctor, you said that with your team you will do everything possible and impossible to bring the

and i believe can provide a basis for a lot of our work going forward here at the clinton foundation, the clinton presidential center and library. but this final conversation is especially meaningful to me, because here are two of the leaders whom i've had the great privilege and honor of getting to know over years, and whom i admire so much. they have taken on some of the hardest challenges in politics. they have had to not only stand against war, misogyny, the political wind, but they've had to figure out, you know, on almost a constantly challenged basis how they're going to try to achieve what they believe in. and i have learned so much from each of them. i want to, you know, just start by introducing them to you through each of their brief overview of how they got into politics, what motivated them and inspired them. because i think it's important for all of us that particularly young people to hear directly from two women who lead their governments and did so with real courage. so julie, i'm going to start with you. i i was thinking of you as we we listening to shabana talk abou

are you going to give it to the clinton foundation? your uncles charity? will doubt donate it back to the next cycle? that is not fair. you cannot have these, because these pumping up the senates. you can't have guys stealing cash from a donating to democrats and then dying on the hill. i'm just going to give the money to charity. you can do that every single election if you want to. one guy goes to jail and they keep the senate. not fair coming up for her! >> will: jessica? >> jessica: so he didn't steal the senate. >> jesse: still purchased with fraudulent money. >> jesse: that is capitalism may be. >> jesse: no, it is not! >> jessica: okay i thought i would try purity should get back the money and i don't think the charity is good enough. i don't know how -- there obviously needs to be somebody in charge of this because a lot of this money was given to you which packs that gives money to various and adults, issues. i don't know how that works. just picking a charity animal cruelty or whatever doesn't help the people that need this money back. so it make

waltz's and other dances around the fact that the clintons might have been influence to the clinton foundationte thing to talk about. the same republicans who have made a of the various ways in which democrats have earned money in their post presidency's? i think that that again it's legitimate for either party to look at. the republicans have no ground to stand on here from both an equity standpoint and from a good government standpoint. they can whine about it but it's something both parties should be behind. i think the reason they would have hesitancy is about donald trump is not because of congressional overreach, it's because a political embarrassment and possible financial misdeeds. >> speaking of, that i will have you back to talk about the ruling, certainly against the trump organization. 17 charges, all found guilty so come see me again very soon. until, then my thanks to him. and that will do it for me on this edition of alex witt reports and i'll see you again tomorrow and noon eastern, must for any has been continues the coverage. coverage ♪ kevin! kevin! kevin? oh nice. kevin, wh

when you ask the role of putin and the foundations were laid back in the 1990s when it was clinton andtsin and putin has built on not which suggests, that noah was not putin who did all this but a much deeper historical trend. now the cia chief was an ambassador and a good us ambassador, he wrote in his memoirs that a train wreck between the us and russia was built into the equation from the start. because america had the delusion that russia would follow the course that america set in the us-led rules -based society russia had the illusion the united states would accept them as equal and neither of those what happened. but it didn't have to lead to the war in ukraine. very much attributable to putin a different leader would have done different things. so yes the historical fundamentals, but putin played an important part. >> just to go back with one more question, when i remember is bill clinton going out of his way to bring russia what the g-7 became the g8. a big effort from washington to prevent the collapse of the market before august 1988 which failed and collapsed into a big dev

of putin, i would say an awful lot of what we have now, the foundations for it were related in 1990s when it was bill and boris, bill clinton and boris yeltsin who were the power holders and putin has built on that, it wasn't prudent who did all this stuff, it was a much deeper historical trend. bill burns, now the cia chief, ambassador in moscow and a very good us ambassador to moscow. he wrote in his memoirs a kind of a train wreck between the us and russia was built into the equation from the start because america had the delusion that russia would meet -- neatly follow the course that america set in the us-led rules based society, the russia will be part of that and russia had the illusion that the united states would accept it as an equal and neither of those were going to happen, but it didn't have to lead to the shambles we have today with the war in ukraine. that is very much i think attributable to putin. a different leader would probably have done different things so yes, there are historical fundamentals that take us to the state we are in but boudin played a pretty important part in it too. >> to go back with on

bill clinton started the clinton global initiative to help find solutions to issues like climate resilience, health equity, and economic growth around the world. obama has a foundationon the people, with a netflix bill to promote greater empathy and understanding among people. and then there is our most recent former president, who may be taking old john quincy adams literally with his latest bridge. >> hello, everyone. this is donald trump. hopefully your favorite president of all-time, better than lincoln, better than washington, with an important announcement to make. i'm doing my first official donald j trump nft collection right here and right now. they're called trump a digital trading cards. >> no? that is not an snl sketch. shouldn't it be? aren't former president supposed to keep some level of dignity? trumpers are rooting back to the pre-white house failed middle state try kuhn who will fix is named any product to make a buck. remember trump stakes? the trump board game? he claims he so-called limited edition carried feature images pertaining to his life and career but at what point in his life was he ever an astronaut? and that i miss when he starred as a

and i would say a lot of what we have now, the foundations for it, were laid back in the 1990s when it was bill hundred philip us and it was bill clintonin, couple of power holders. in putin has built from that which suggests the know, it was not putin who did all of this stuff, is a much deeper historical trend. and bill burns who is now the cia chief, he was ambassador in moscow in a very good u.s. ambassador to moscow and he wrote his memoirs that kind of a train rock between the u.s. and russia was building into the equation from the start because america the delusion that russia would neatly follow the course that america set. the u.s. led rules -based americass called the and russia would be part of that. and russia the illusion that the united states would accept it as an equal and neither of those were ever going to happen. but it did not have to lead to the kind of challenges that we have today with a war in ukraine. that iss very much a tribute to putin, differently or would've probably done different things. ... we're in. but putin played a pretty important part in it, too. but maybe just to go back with, one more question,

clinton's surpluses for years in a row, budget surpluses, on a trajectory of $5.6 trillion in surplus. with his reckless economic policies, within two years he had turned that around. now, eight years later, the foundation of that fiscal irresponsibility, combined with an anything goes economic policy, has taken us to where we are today. they claim to be free market advocates, when it is really an anything goes mentality. no regulation. no supervision. no discipline. if you fail, you will have a golden parachute, and the taxpayer will bail you out. those days are over. the party is over in that respect. democrats believe in a free market. we know that it can create jobs, wealth, it can create many good things in our economy. in this case, in its unbridled form, as encouraged, supported by republicans, some in the party, not all, it has created not jobs, not capital. it has created chaos. gretta: how did that speech go over? susan: she was speaking of the frustration of americans. it was not the most helpful tone to take when you're trying to get a difficult piece of legislation through the house. it angered republicans. it was a brutal assault on the economic record of president bush. so, republicans th
