i think that has changed our political system much more than donald trump has. nald trump is the vehicle for it, that understands it. >> i do think that you are right in a sense. i think that we need, people need to be trained in how to absorb and take in media. you need to be media savvy. people sit around and they watch the same news program. they read the same blogs where everyone agrees with them. if you are watching a network that is to the left you are going to believe that donald trump is going to be impeached at any moment. if you are watching on the right you think donald trump is the greatest thing since sliced bread. the truth is somewhere in the middle. >> somehow or another we are making the tone donald trump's fault. once again he is responsible. did donald trump cause -- he set the tone. did donald trump cause democrats to say republicans are going to get rid of obamacare it will kill people? donald trump didn't cause democrats to say that. people need to be responsible for their own actions instead of us saying he set the tone so pretty much anyth

in other words, donald trump's ban has no place. the mayor of london. we have been hearing more of the trump white house's view on this. the bbc‘s newsnight programme spoke to donald trump's deputy assistant of the senior adviser stopped this was his response. if this is going to be an avid discussion about a tweet for six minutes then it really a game is something that is unseemly. the president was making a very, very valid point. we have twojettisoned political correctness, we have two apply honesty to the threat and saying it is just business as usual, don't worry about a thing, a pollyanna attitude to a threat that has killed 170 people in the past two years has killed 170 people in the past two yea rs in has killed 170 people in the past two years in europe alone and maimed more than 700, has to be dealt with honestly. well, professor, there are fair points in there. no. anti-trump u nfortu nately fair points in there. no. anti-trump unfortunately echoed some of what was said. he said he preferred the earlier travel ban, not t

that is something that donald trump has craved his entire life. makes him chase after "the new york times." i think he cannot tolerate that somebody like jeff bezos is more successful in things donald trump would like to be successful at, including media, so now he's decided to go off the reservation. so here's the question, though. how long will it be before rank and file republicans who like donald trump also are for internet sales taxes. >> okay. i'm going to bet that that's a bridge too far for them, that he will get zero support for sales taxes. >> i don't know. i mean trump voters, trump supporters have decided russia is okay. they've decided russian hacking is okay. >> right. >> i mean the rubicon has been crossed on what republicans are willing to tolerate. the polling shows that even though they think donald trump might have colluded with the russians, they don't think there's a problem with that. >> they've always hated taxes more than russia. they've always hated taxes the most. >> that is true. >> so tonight the president has a fund-ra

donald trump has been abusing people online.two journalists who co—host the show in the morning. on the receiving end today were joe scarborough and meeka brezinski. they co—host the show "morning joe" on msnbc. and they‘re frequently critical of the trump administration, though that puts them in a large group. not clear why the president attacked them today, but he did. first there was this tweet. "i heard poorly rated @morning—joe speaks badly of me. then how come low iq, crazy meeka, along with psychojoe, came." then after five long minutes where we were all wondering where he‘s going with this, the next tweet arrived. "how come they came to mar—a—lago three nights in a row around new year‘s eve, and insisted onjoining me? she was bleeding badly from a face—lift. isaid no"' lest we forget, this is the president of america saying this. well, the reaction was swift. republican congresswoman lynn jenkins tweeted: this is not ok. we should be working to empower women. next republican senator ben sasse. please just stop. this isn‘

i think that has changed our political system much more than donald trump has. but donald trump is the vehicle for it, that understands it, as manipulated it, and has risen -- >> listen, hold on, ohold on. i think you're right, in a sense. but i think that people need to be trained in how to absorb and take in media. right? you need to be media savvy. >> absolutely. >> because people sit around, and i know it's been said over and over and over again, they watch the same news program, they read the same blogs, where everyone agrees with them. and if you're watching a network that's to the left, you're going to believe that donald trump is going to be impeached at any moment, right? and if you're watching it on the right, you think that donald trump is the greatest thing since sliced bread. and the truth is somewhere in the middle. >> can i just point out that somehow or another we're making this tone donald trump's fault. so once again, he's responsible. did donald trump cause kirsten gillibrand -- >> no one has said that. >> he set the tone. >> glenn thrush's quo

donald trump has gone awol.to the president of china and for california to work with him and other countries to do whatever we can to off set the negative pathway chosen by president trump. this is a decision of enormous planetary and geopolitical significance. critics claiming america has abdicated leadership on the world's biggest problem, that america first, means aamerica alone. nick bryant, bbc news, washington. the european commission said it deeply regretted the decision by the united states to withdraw from the paris climate agreement, saying it would seek new alliances to combat climate change. "the eu deeply regrets the unilateral decision by the trump administration to withdraw the us from the paris agreement," the european commission said after us president donald trump announced his country's withdrawal from the deal. one of the first to respond to the annoucecment was mr trump's predecessor, barack obama, whose administration signed the treaty. mr 0bama accused the president of rejecting the future

anyway donald trump has treated females -- in the way donald trump has treated females, things he hasone and he tried to silence his victims when he was running. she needs to bring that up and be a voice for the people, especially for females. host: who do you think is the head of the democrat party right now? hillary clinton, tom perez, head of the dnc, bernie sanders? mantle?ies the caller: although he is not really a democrat, bernie sanders. to me, bernie sanders. host: how do you feel about that? caller: i am ok with that, would have voted for him. i like him and am ok with him. fitzpatrick writes on facebook, i think it is time for hillary clinton to simply remove herself from the public arena, i am sure she is a knowledgeable, thoughtful, considerate person but also one that is arising and unlikable. and spend timere with her family working on such subjects as she chooses outside of the public eye and i believe that is perhaps the best course worker and the nation. robert from pennsylvania is a republican, what do you think hillary clinton should do next? caller: i would like t

modi has more twitter followers than donald trump. just. several million more.are both political outsiders. just looking at the optics in the rose garden, maybe giving him a bear hug. absolutely. they do have some problematic things in common. they are both set their stall out against the muslim world in a fairly strong way. certainly their supporters would look at them and say, these are people who have taken a strong stands against muslims. that is something that they have potentially have done around which other people would say is not good. same story, different angle. it is amazing, this sort of stuff. it is not an angle at all. it is quite cheap, by her standards. a couple of thousand dollars. $55,000 for the g7. when you are talking about having f—16 fighters made in india and india buying a lot of american weaponry and in the way to run the story is on the dress being worn by melania trump, you have to wonder. the times business section, concerns about a trade war. we oon trump again in a way because what is being talked about is the idea that is going t

this is a time to show solidarity with the people of london and the people of england, and what donald trump hasat donald trump has done is really an embarrassment, i think in the united states. it is the opposite... it revives a rivalry with the mayor of london at a time we should be standing together. why do you think he has done is? the two do you think he has done is? the two do have a beef, previously, dayday? the mayor of london previously talked about donald trump ozmen travel ban, and called him a buffer. he said that i hope he loses and loses big. and he said that the ban was a mistake. —— don't they? —— donald trump's travel ban. what is happening in the united states right now might have prompted his comments. the boards caught so good deal said this was a band based on anti—muslim animus. in other words, donald trump's policy has no place in our constitutional culture and tradition. i think this just revised the way that he was called out, rightly, by the mayor of london. professor, hold on a moment, we have been hearing more from the white house on the point of view there about this

went up after that, and time and time again you see instances where there has been an attack or some sort of incident and donaldemning it and saying it is an example of why the us must do more to ta ke example of why the us must do more to take on islamic extremism. so it isn't out of keeping with the way donald trump has behaved on the campaign trail, and as president. but, mind you, it is particularly pointed, given the fact that it is the mayor of london, and the uk is one of our closest allies. i think he is getting a lot of criticism here within the us on this topic. and just before the end of this half of the programme, explain to us what the president has been saying about the president has been saying about the travel ban and the department of justice and the supreme court, because it is getting confusing exactly what he would like to happen. exactly. first of all he tweeted earlier today that he did in fa ct call tweeted earlier today that he did in fact call for a travel ban, the word ban is something he would use to describe it. other people in the ministers and have backed off using that term becaus

donald trump has just announced the us is this is outside source. donald trump hasjust announced the us is pulling out of the paris climate agreement. as of today the united states will cease all implementation of the non—binding paris accord and the draconian financial and economic burdens, that this agreement opposes in our country. donald trump made that announcement in the rose garden of the white house about 20 minutes ago, we will bring your reaction from washington and brussels. plus we talk about what this means for the future of climate change, later in the show we cross to rucksack the south—west england. in the show we cross to rucksack the south-west england. hello i am in cornwall which is the most south westerly point of the uk and people who voted for brexit, i am going to talk to them about how their opinions on that are informing their choices on the general election next month. also breaking news coming in from the philippines, a tourist resort in melilla is on lockdown following explosions and gunshots inside a hotel —— manila. tha

understand that donald has a long, long history of being involved in transactions that are hard to trace and understand what he's doing. when trump tower was built, it was one of only two buildings in manhattan of its kind where anonymous wealth could buy into them. now it's all over the place. but back then -- and he was able to charge premium prices. there have been a number of transactions with russians, and i think it's financial actions where donald has always been much more vulnerable. right now there is a case going on in which he's alleged to have authorized what is described as a quarter billion dollar tax fraud. that money disappeared from new york to iceland into a bank that was under the control of a russian oligarch. >> well, that's interesting. nick, i wanted to talk to you. i thought of having you on tonight because, you know, when we go back to watergate, and again there's no perfect template for what's happening now, but there is the famous follow the money line. people tend to forget that was the thread, that nixon had to get this money and get it to the people that wer

>> well, you have to realize the scrutiny that donald trump has been under just because he is donalde looking for anything they can, they've been very upset about the outcome of the election, yes, donald trump is now everyone's president. i think a lot of people, you know, do not like his tactics when it comes to tweeting and the way he tweets and, you know, his personality as a whole but in order for everybody to come together and everybody to get along, we have to do just that. we have got to lay down some of the differences that are absolutely absurd. kelly: i hear you loud and clear, to your point -- not to interrupt you, bow hear your point as well as michael's point, there seems to be common ground that both of you are saying, be presidential and move forward with lifting all votes and all american people, am i hearing you right? i don't want to put words in your mouth. >> well, i think -- kelly: that was for noel, michael. >> the only reason donald trump has to resort to twitter because the mainstream media has betrayed him and put words in his mouth in assumption and so he's

donald trump has made it to the white house by hitting the low road harder than everybody and being wolverineus and fearful as can be donald trump, so nobody can feel sorry for her. >> let's take a trip down memory lane at some of the things donald trump has said. listen to this. >> rosie o'donnell is disgusting, both inside and out. i don't know what i said, i don't remember. i view a person who is flat-chested as very hard to be a 10. we are led by very, very stupid people. this guy ted cruz is the single biggest liar i've ever dealt with in my life. but it's political bull [ bleep ], do you understand? i call him little mark, little marco. forget you. just forget it.

donald trump has proven particularly through these special elections, this isn't just a referendum or his agenda. this is a reaffirmation that many americans are watching what he's doing, getting healthcare through the house and getting it through the senate. creating jobs. look how the markets have reacted to president trump. the stock market. the nasdaq, the dow jones. the s&p. the $4 trillion in wealth that has been created. people are spending their money again. they'll be confident when they see their healthcare plan. people know that obamacare is broken. what leader mcconnell and the senate have done, he's putting together a plan that he knows rips out obamacare, branch and road. let's remind people why this is being done. this is not being done to keep a campaign promise. we're all imperative to the millions that thought they would get better healthcare through obamacare and who have been left behind. i sat in a listening session with a number of them in the white house. they tell their stories. >> it's heart breaking. >> they get the insurance card and the governor considers t

this is an unknown area of the law, there has not been a president like donald trump so there has nothat a president or anyone in office cannot ta ke president or anyone in office cannot take a title from the queen or a gift from a foreign leader, but it is more vague on is someone who has business interests, if they can take money from foreign leaders not as an exchange of services. it is reasonable for sean spicer to say that these attorney generals are political operators? they are political operators? they are political operators? they are political operators and it is reasonable to say that they are probably bringing this suit in part because they have political differences with donald trump and to highlight the fact that he has promised to separate himself from his businesses but, in their view, has not done a good enoughjob of doing that. before they can even get a hearing on the merits, they will have to prove they have standing to bring the case and that might be a big pitfall that everybody bringing these suits might have to deal with. the court has determined that they have

every lie donald trump has told as president. and one of donald trump's new lies is that president obama did nothing to try to stop russian interference in our election. we will consider that. but first, the united states senate is on the verge of making history, on the verge of going -- >> you actually track the logic of the tweets, you will get a blinding headache. >> he says things all the time that aren't true. so, you know, why would today be any different or yesterday? >> he is throwing back the terms that he has been accused of, and it's a defense that frankly has no basis. and that's because his actions have been indefensible. >> the congressional budget office estimates the senate bill would strip health insurance from 22 million americans. >> that explains why republicans have been having trouble defending this law. >> if you're on the fence, i'm not so sure this report helps you much. >> this cbo report should be the end of the road for trumpcare. republicans would be wise to read it like a giant stop sign. >> with heal

that question has been hanging over washington since donald trump took office. may have interfered. moscow has always denied involvement. the topic came up again when he spoke to nbc news. hackers can be anywhere for that they can be in russia, asia, even in america. they can even be hackers by the way in the united states. very skilfully and professionally shifted the blame on to russia. can you imagine something like that? it is a political battle. it was convenient for them to release this information, so they released it, citing russia. can you imagine something like that? i can. a group of children conceded that badly conceived through ivf... this was just the first round. you can see what winning meant to them. the room is full of people wondering if the person sitting next to them is that brother or sister. the mothers all had ivf and now they believed the doctor who ran the clinic secretly inseminated them with his own sperm. translation: i did not see the similarities at first sight.|j translation: i did not see the similarities at first sight. i spoke w

donald trump again has the reputation that donald trump has, and it is a question of he says/he says. so until we have some neutral corroborating evidence we have to go with that. >> you just don't hear people accusing the president of the united states of lying every day. and that's exactly what james comey did today and said the president lied. >> yeah, and i think this is a real problem for donald trump in terms of his credibility, in terms of everything that's going on with the russia investigations and his real intentions in this particular interaction with james comey. again the question will be, what was donald trump's intent. there's this whole legal standard called the guilty mind that has to be satisfied. mens rhea, as i was taught in graduated school. that has to be established. did donald trump, with all of his actions as they line up, show intefnlt and that's what i think the prosecution -- >> well, the intent in this case to say stop the investigation. >> that would be the crime leading towards an impeachable crime of obstruction of justice. we're not there yet, and i do

usually, in the past, it has not lasted long. >> i wonder what the impact is with the rise of a tea party movement and the election of donald trump. even if there is greater prosperity in the future, what impact does this have on the country going forward? >> that is a good question. a lot of it has to do with the republicans now. forseeds they sow pro-aspirational politics, but also the democratic party. i know that you are writing about this an awful lot. americans do not realize how dysfunctional the liberal wing of politics is today. there is a week bench of upcoming leaders. hillary clinton and bernie sanders. it is like the recreation committee at sun city arizona. it is supposed to be the youth movement. and it isng left, getting more populist and left-wing. if that is the case, it does not bode well for the alternative to trumpism. we have to watch that as well. populism, we the are going with a period of revolt against the elites and intellectuals. when you look at what has happened with such results across history, do societies come back from that in a healthy way? when you look at russia and germany over the last

the us supreme court has ruled that parts of donald trump's controversial travel ban can go ahead. ll keep travellers airlines informed of any changes. an inquest has opened in hastings into the deaths of five friends who drowned on a trip to camber sands, in east sussex, last august. the men, aged between 18 and 27, all lived in the london area and were of sri lankan origin. the circumstances surrounding the deaths of two other swimmers at the same beach, a month earlier, are also being taken into account, as our correspondent duncan kennedy reports. this was camber sands this afternoon, its stunning beach drawing thousands of people. no sign of what one lawyer today called its hidden dangers. but, last summer, this was the same beach shortly after five men drowned this was the same beach shortly afterfive men drowned here, all friends on a day trip. today, the men's families, some of whom escaped the civil war in sri lanka, came to their inquest, hoping others won't suffer like they have. we are just hoping to learn that at least they will be more secure, safe, more lifeguards, an

the united states has a military inspiration that which is vital to combating and fighting terrorism in the region. —— installation. but as donaldillerson has offered to work with all nations to try to come to some kind of negotiation settlement. so while donald trump is excoriating cutter on the one hand and lauding saudi arabia on the other, he is putting the weight and influence of the united states by the situation, try to resolve the problem. -- qatar. the president also has a tendency to take credit for things which are not down to him or are not true. but in this case, he can claim credit? he can. donald trump has been very engaged, very involved in the region, particularly with rebuilding and reshaping his relationship and the us‘s relationship and the us‘s relationship with saudi arabia. that was his first stop on his overseas trip, and there is a relationship established, and a dealfor sale of r established, and a dealfor sale of weaponry in the range of $300 billion. so we know that donald trump is looking to make changes and reshape the region, and i think what he's doing now is saying us credibility, as well as his

>> i want to say sure your viewers and everyone all over the country and donald trump has the ability to turn his face against the wind and tune out the detractors and keep his face towards the american family and some of the attacks this week and they were deplorable and i think, denounced by people across the political spectrum appropriately and whether it is the day in and day out humdrum media and this president has been burdened under the weight of high taxes and regulations that have been stifling and he's fighting every single day. i spoke to the novel academy about a week ago and able to tell them, you now have a commander-in-chief that is working to rebuild the military and a commander-in-chief that will have their back and the applause that i got was overwhelming and our forces know and the american people know it that president trump is fighting for our people every single day and it is going to do it for thefection 4 years. >> sean: i'm looking at the legislative calendar and i know that you know it, congress takes so many days off, it is unfathomable and there are only 20

area of questioning will be whether or not the attorney general has any knowledge of the president taping his meetings in the white house. donaldersations with james comey. it is unclear whether the president agrees with jeff is unclear whether the president agrees withjeff sessions posture by decision to testify. —— jeff sessions‘s decision. decision to testify. —— jeff sessions's decision. he believes he said we can get this suggested are dealt with, if there has been no collusion, he wants this to... get investigated as soon as possible, and get dumber that, so we can get going with the business of the wreck and people. with the white house and often scandal and much hinting at the hearing, donald trump has been meeting with his cabinet. in an unusual move, with the cameras rolling, his most senior officials took the opportunity, one by one, to lavish praise on the president. a somewhat surreal scene as washington braces itself for yet another day of high drama and little intrigue. peter bowes, bbc news —— bbc news. the us defence secretary has told a congressional committee he is "shocked" by the poor state of the military

has to say. they believe a lot of things that aren't true. >> charlie sykes, donald trump considers time covers verytant. he likes to lie about having been on more of them than anyone else but he's been on a lot. robert mueller has at least his second "time" magazine cover that is coming out in the next issue of "time" magazine. we've just put it up on the screen there. there's robert mueller in a kind of statesmanlike pose with the headline, "the lie detector" on the cover of "time" magazine. the line on the front cover of the magazine suggesting that someone is not telling the truth and that, of course, robert mueller will be the person who figures that out. that's going to be, i would assume, the president's least favorite "time" cover maybe ever. >> well, there will be worse. the problem with president trump is we found out today that he had this clumsy attempt to bully james comey by lying about the tapes. that didn't work out for him, right? that backfired. now apparently he's absolutely committed to discrediting robert mueller despite his reputation. look, you know, there's two words that com

effective defender of the president there ironically was marco rubio, who campaigned against donald trump and has been a critic of donald trump who said in this hearing that he was astonished that the one thing that hasn't leaked in all of this whole process was the fact that the president himself was not personally under investigation. that was a good line for the trump white house effectively delivered by senator rubio. but for the most part, senators on the republican side very respectful and differential to mr. comey there. >> it may be what your definition is of the phrase "i hope." democrats will portray that maybe in the same light that the former director did as a directive, whereas republicans are simply going to say "i hope" is not a directive to do anything. >> yeah, there were legalisms at stake here and also real emotion at stake here. you watch director comey over time as i have and he's not somebody who is prone to emotional outbursts. but at the opening of this hearing when he said that the administration tried to defame me and more importantly the fbi, that was powerful coming fr

the person on other end of it has a right to defend him or herself and explain what the actual conversation was. so that, in a way, could be viewed as a waver. >> so donald trump has said n that public letter, thank you mr. comey for telling me three times i'm not the subject of investigation. he has tweeted comey better hope there aren't tapes of the conversation. jill, that lessens his potential case? >> it does. frank lesion i think it's lessen by the fact that the allegation is that he asked mr. comey to stop investigating flynn. >> yeah. >> and that's an obstruction of justice. so it's not protected anyway. >> okay, brian, since a good lawyer is supposed to be able to argue that night is day, day is night, and sunny is cloudy, can you make the other case? make the case for president trump, if you would, that perhaps there's a way they can wiesel into an executive privilege claim? >> and you have used the operative word, brian, wiesel. it would take all of the wieseling that any bunch of wiesels could possibly come up with. this may be the one time when i'm at loss for words. i'm not sure what the over/under is on the president invoking executive pri

donald trump are just whingeing? i will give some examples, if i may. one of them is obviously over the air run deal, whichjeremy corbyn alluded to several times. britain hasericans so they haven't scrapped the iran nuclear deal, which had been a risk. we are working with them on their policy for the middle east peace process, where donald trump has shown great interest. if you look at the actions of america in syria, their treatment of russia, they are far more proactive now and that is very much, i believe, thanks to the intercessions of the uk government and a powerful relationship that has been developed between us. theresa may did not back you at the time. we haven't had any such requests, and all i can say is that on the two occasions when the americans have taken action, i think they had a material impact on the calculations of the russians and of the assad regime. do you think you will be in a job next week? that is something that the 0bama administration absolutely failed to do, and i think part of that success is thanks to uk diplomacy. as for your questions about the job that i may have. i want, if at all possible, to be the mp for uxbridge and

comes because this is something that has been in the spotlight, it has been a tool going back and forth throughout the election. donaldmp has targeted it. tell us where this came from because people suspected this has been happening but the degree to which you guys have quantified it is new -- is nw. >> people who work in silicon valley is because they are at these companies but it has been hard to tell how much it goes on. awas contacted by basically hobbyist data analyst from south carolina. he works for an i.t. company but he found this way to crunch the numbers. was that each h1b visa application the department of labor listed this is where this person will work and he worked -- and he wrote software that's great the website and rapes thewn -- that sc website and take applications and sorts them by the address. these are contractors who are working for microsoft. dropbox ceo drew houston talks about the company dealing with competition coming from amazon and google. for a and its potential ipo. >> john fox originally -- dropbox allows you to store your items in the cloud and it was popular. they gave it away for f

has not gone well. he's gone from world reknown neurosurgeon to donald trump's pick to maintain housing across the country no experience for this new job although he's claimed otherwise. >> what would stereo to take a job for which a lot of folks say you have these ample medical did he degrees, one of the nation's top neurosurgeons what do you know about doing this? >> i know i grew up in the inner city and spent a lot of sometime there and dealt with a lot of patients from that area. >> like carson the president has appointed another hud officials who doesn't have a lot of experience. he has a lot of experience planning celebrity ents and including eric trump's wedding. that's thing two in 60 seconds. . yeah... gary won't like it. why? because he's gary. (phone ringing) what? keep going! yeah... (laughs) (voice on phone) it's not millennial enough. there are a lot of ways to say no. thank you so much. thank you! so we're doing it. yes! start saying yes to your company's best ideas. let us help with money and know-how, so you can get business done. american express open. so you can get business done. when

he has these burdens he has to deal with, issues he doesn't understand. donald is appalling le ignorant about the world. so he is lashing out. she used to be able to cowell journalists. he is not able to do that, tow. >> one of the details from the story from ashley is these phone calls that apparently take place every morning, trump, his legal team. they get on the phone, he talks about the headlines the idea what's sort of like punching the pillow instead of lashing out at the world, they want him to be venting to his lawyers privately, get it out of his system. it doesn't sound like this basic combative nature, there is snow way for a political or legal professional to correct it. >> look at what happened a month ago, the last time he went out and vented on twitter. he went out and said comey should not hope, should hope there aren't any tapes about his conversation, it was a before there was any sort of testimony that was going on. >> that by comey's own admission triggered comey to go out and leak legally this unclassified memorandum which he wrote to himse

he has hit back on donald trump.nly bad for the american economy but it weakens us as well. the slogan, make america great again reverberated most strongly. donald trump and not be president might not for the support he received in the rust belt states. they have become the critical battle ground. many voters here believe that the global anger over his paris decision offers proof of his determination to fight on their behalf. at this derelict steel plant we found something unexpected. the old economy meeting venue. employees from google on a day out learning about this region's industrial past. della mcgregor paris accord was to help stimulate the economy. green industries are really the future of the region. this industry is not. the post paris question for the us economy, is donald trump trying to revive old, declining industries in a way that impedes the development of the new? at least five people have died after police opened fire on demonstrators in the afghan capital, kabul. police used live bullets and tear g
