such a strong competent and amazing person has made me being gone so much possible i never call or elisabeth that takes too long to say. it's got to be sexier heidi here i payments or something and she's super while. i was. doing. stuff she says through words came and went and bought a google group of. girls who. were who were just the scope of the school because it was for those who come from people. who she were our. public to do because of who. you know. not what is the. problem with you. yet how are you trying to get rid of the one you have if you cannot get. you to the digital age at which much of the old age you bill. i did. this for the. music you serve you get the work. you call. your pastor of the us that. was the museum with the amenities of. those who didn't but we're also locals one on one bird with your. blue cooks they can push. really good you know the more you go cocoa. with who are those who do look newcomb used to say looks. as though they grew to be a little bit of increase who. came . up. to. 50 and. to. me saying. to me. play a game. and honest that's the case for. the m

and to keep things fair, elisabeth bumiller, the washington bureau chief for "the new york times." welcome to you all. elizabeth, i'd like to begin with you. have we invented a new category of the incremental game-changer, and like taylor before him, was today's witness indeed an incremental game-changer? >> absolutely. it doesn't change the nature of the call, of the transcript the white house put out, but it certainly provides key details, and it increases the suspicion of what the white house is doing or not doing. we were very curious about those ellipses in the transcript of the call, which as you said before, it's a rough transcript. it's based on voice recognition software that colonel vindman among others then looked over. he took notes on the call. he looked over and made corrections, and for whatever reason, those corrections were not included in the final document that was put in that vault. so it does raise questions about what happened at the white house after those corrections were made and why were key phrases and words not included. >> phil rucker, i want to play fo

anything he told me e do, i would do. fact that i've lasted longerhe than any conservative since elisabeth. and was called a mushy rino for most of my career.de all of a s i'm like the queen conservative, and none's more surpred abo it than i am. >> do you worry about the future of the party in a post-trump world? >> 100%. >> do you think the party is going to ronate with young people, people your age and younger? >> i really worry about it, because -- and the numbers show this, by the way. whatever you want to say about the left or people like aoc,c, they do a really good job ofng speao young people. and i think, for us -- and i always laugh -- like, young republican groups start at 40. an,i think post-trump ameri for the party, is gonna be a ry, very dark place to rebuild. >> i mean, i don't know how we rebuild, but, cind you shook your head. as you think about your children, your grandchildren, and having republican party appeal, this concerns you? >> it concerns me very much, ans i'ak for my own home state, where the party has simply left "normal" -- what we would consider normal -- re

presidential hopeful elisabeth warren may be caught in another lie. but rather.. she was -- said she was visibly pregnant. >> by the end of the first school year i was quite visibly pregnant. and the principal did what principals did in those days. wished me luck and hired someone else for the job. trish: that would be terrible if it were true. but there is a problem here. that's not the story she used to tell when she was talking about that period in her life. she used to say she voluntarily wanted time off. she wasn't sure she wanted to teach. here she is with that version of the story in 2007. >> i worked with the children with disabilities. and i did that for a year. and then that summer i actually didn't have the education courses. so i was on the emergency certificate. i went back to graduate school and took a couple of courses in education and said i don't think this is going to work out for me. and i was pregnant with my first baby. so i had a baby. and stayed home for a couple of years. and i was casting about thinking what am i going to do? trish: what

. >> and you talked about elisabeth warren's plans, tell us about that. >> it was interesting, bernie said the difference between me and warren say she is a capitalist to her bones and i am note. i try to talk about what significance that has. does that mean he is a little further to the west. he says i'm trying to change the value system of the country, it is not just about more regulation, that was a shot at warren and when i said do you have any problem with the work she has done for major corporations when she was a harvard law professor, he said we'll let the person people decide. i have never carried her baggage. i was for medicare for all in the 80s. i have been at this for a long time and he is trying to make a case that he is both deeper and more experienced in the progressive movement in the ambitious part than elizabeth warren is. >> many say he is the original and she is new and improved, but while bernie sanders is taking a knock at her, we're waiting as the days are going by. it was two sundays ago that elizabeth warren in a local interview said she would lay out to how

we're not giving us much people to judge i did really well in prosecuting the case against a little elisabeth that successful successful in i don't know, but it's clear he's setting himself up to be the moderate kennedy did biden can't make it. >>all right so as right now anyway, only 8 of those candidates will be on the stage in november. you get tougher to qualify. so people like call chart may or may not be back who only about half town little governor league on money cory booker i think goes money wise. >>goes money us to pay togo's money what look this is a hard thing it takes a lot of money to do what to do this sort of thing they don't hope to get to texas, but it's not going to happen. honestly i don't think kamala harris. makes it to the 2 california primary, because she can't afford to finish 4th and she just theirs. she has no narrative right now that boats are ahead. and she's not to we're not going you see people going to pour the kind of money they need to just get to that final debate or not because again you're sort gasping across the finish line that point and these are peopl

for more on the investigation we're joined by elisabeth bumiller — the new york times washington bureaunathan was saying, this will suck up asjonathan was saying, this will suck up enormous amounts asjonathan was saying, this will suck up enormous amounts of airtime on cable views. it is of for months. yes, it is. in that regard, you would think that is terrible news. foran would think that is terrible news. for an incumbent president. but it does not come without risk. it is not obvious to me that democrats will be happy dated this ninth site. we will see how it goes, there are a lot of things that could go right and wrong. —— happy with this in hindsight. it could end up going to the senate and being more genetic and close run than people expect but likely it will be dead on arrival in the senate. the muller investigation, at its crescendo looked like it would be devastating for president trump and could look like it would lead to impeachment and tending being driven from office but in hindsight it was a political draw at best. so this will consume all of washington but we cannot assu

anne—elisabeth moutet is a paris—based journalist and political commentator, shejoins me now.e context of the last few daysis believe the context of the last few days is for this attack?|j believe the context of the last few days is for this attack? i think actually, the context is pretty important. i think this incident is really unrelated to the general stress within the police. you must remember that yesterday saw the largest police demonstration in paris in the last 20 years. by far you had about 25,000 policemen demonstrating in the street, co nsta bles demonstrating in the street, constables and inspectors — all classes and ranks came together. there have been 52 suicides of policemen since january, and they feel that their situation has become unbearable. they are not considered, they have to withstand more and more violence and do nothing, the yellow vest demonstrations created a situation in which they had to work 18 hour days for several days at a stretch. and they are not even being paid for the over time, they are owed over time for sometimes over a year. that was
