listen to what eric trump claimed in 2019 about the government's expenses at trump properties. >> ifvels they stay at our properties for free. it save as fortune. go to a hotel across the street charged $500 a night we charge, like, $50. >> joining us now, cnn political analyst and senior political correspondent at the "new york times," maggie haberman. also author of the new book "confidence man: the making of donald trump and the breaking of america." maggie what do you think about what this report found? obviously very much in contradiction of what eric trump promised? >> two things, brianna. one, absolutely not true they were charging $50 a night or charging something below the government rate. those rates are very, very high and those rates are so high they're only going to call attention to what trump was doing. trump, who looks to make a profit any way he can and always has probably could have made a profit without going so exorbitantly high, but doing that is just going to draw attention from people who engage in government oversight, something he was, you know, never conside

eric trump promised that they would be able to stay free of charge or, its worst, it cost. arn that in at least 40 cases we've uncovered, trump's secret service details stated the trump hotel downtown had a cost of 1100 and $85 per night, when the federal rate is $201 per night. so, you've got a five fold markup, highly free, or hardly a cost, as promised by eric trump. so, here we have an egregious case, not only of outright lying, about what in fact they were prepared to do for the secret service, which after all, is doing its job in protecting the first family. and the level of abnormality that is jaw-dropping. >> i want to play for you that quote you have referenced, which is eric trump making this pledge, which at the time seemed obviously untrue. but now, we have definitive movement. take a listen. >> anytime a government comes, and follow travels, they stay in our properties for free, meaning it's cost for housekeeping effectively. but the action after legally charged the government something. so, everywhere that he goes, if he stays in one of those places, the govern

c., for agents who are protecting eric trump on march 8th 2017. the government rate for d. c. on that night, was $242. and according to the new york times, quote, the committee release secret service records showing more than one point $4 million in payments by the department to trump properties since mr. trump took office in 2017. late today, the trump organization issued a statement to read this in part quote any services rendered to the united states secret service or other government agencies at trump -owned properties where their request and were either provided it cost, heavily discounted, or for free, that is not true. the numbers don't lie and it is not smart business practices when taxpayers are footing the bill, that is your money. meanwhile donald trump is still waiting for that subpoena from the january six committee protesting money in documents the official request is expected to be filed soon. with that, let's get smarter with the help of our lead off panel tonight, we have pulitzer prize -- and civil rights attorney charles coleman he's also former new york pro

and so i think the clip you played from eric trump is instructive. ganization was saying throughout trump's presidency they were charging. it's free. it's only $50. it saves the government all this money. it couldn't be further from the truth. now the records come out they were charging routinely over $500, $600 a night for hotel rooms just because they could and the secret service had no other choice. they had to be there. they were captive customers. >> if, as the report suggests, trump's family business leveraged the presidency to his financial advantage, is that against the law? >> no. the president is exempt from the conflict of interest rules that would apply to almost any other federal government. if you were a middle manager in the department of energy, you certainly couldn't direct to the family business. if you're president, you can. there's nothing illegal about that. in this case what strikes me is the real contrast between what they told the public, what they said they were doing and what they were really doing behind the scenes. >> which

free or at cost but records show they moreha lst including one stay by the former president's son eric trump at trump international. the secret service was charged $1,160 a night. both visits, more than five times the government rate. most expenditures were approved during the administration. no word yet from the trump organization tonight. >>> we turn now to that horrific attack in a connecticut neighborhood. a 10-year-old boy mauled by a break in his grandparents' backyard. his grandfather, in a wheelchair, trying to fight off the bear. here's trevor ault. >> reporter: tonight, that terrifying backyard bear encounter. a 10-year-old boy playing outside his grandparents' house in connecticut when the 250-pound black bear started dragging him away. the boy's grandfather who reportedly uses a wheelchair, throwing this metal bar at its head and a neighbor heard the screams and managed to scare the animal back, freeing the boy, but it wouldn't go away. >> stay in the area for now. the bear is still reported to be in the yard and aggressive at this time. wildlife officials ultimately shooting and

i want to play what eric trump said in 2019 about what the government spends at trump properties. >> if my father travels, they stay on our property free. we charge them like $50 a night. >> so that doesn't appear to be true. i'm wondering what you made of the comments from eric trump juxtaposed with what the house oversight committee reported? >> the house oversight committee report appears to be based on actual data from what was being spent by the government. it was clear that donald trump was charging the secret service, you know, certain rates to stay at his properties. they did not appear to be the low market value minimum. this report suggests it was well above that. trump always justifies these things to people as, well, you know, we lose the rooms otherwise, or these are things he would say privately. if there was a vast difference between what he and members of his family have said about what they were doing with the business in terms of trump's involvement with it on one hand, and another with these rooms and what they were actually doing. it is also a reminder that there'

and one example was that is in march 2017, according to the house, eric trump had stayed ted trump brandedon, d.c. he was there on some business to promote a golf tournament at one of the trump's nearby golf courses the secret service then was charged $1,160 a night. the gs. rate was $242. so the house committee is saying they need more information. they've been looking into this for two years. they want the secret service to turn over additional records. they don't believe they have everything and they want to explore this further about potential self-dealings by the former president. john. >> $1,180 per night. thank you for that reporting. >>> up next, arizona gubernatorial candidate kari lake borrow's trump's s definition. ey indicators of brain health.h. to help keep me shararp. neuriva: think bigger. my name is joshua florence, and one thing i learned being a firefighter is plan ahead. you don't know what you're getting into, but at the end of the y, you know you have a team behind you that can help u. not having to worry about the future makes it possie to make the present as best as

eric trump was saying at the trump branded hotel in washington, d.c., he was there to promote say golfhe secret service then was charged $1,160 per night but the gsa government rate was $242. so the house committee is saying they have significant concerns about self-dealing by the former president. and that they are trying to get more information from the secret service about how much in expenses they had been charged by the trump organization. they're still continuing that effort. we've reached out to the secret service and the trump organization today. and have not received a response. ana. >> i was trying to dot math there. there was like five times, i believe, four or five times, if i'm doing my math right that gsa rate that they were charging. that is shocking. kara scannell, thank you for the reporting. >>> police in california think they stopped a suspected serial killer while he was out hunting for his next victim. what we know about the man in custody. >>> and how do billions of snow crabs just disappear.. hint, it is not over fishing.. the face of millions of germs zapped in

so eric trump put out a statement afterwards that they actually saved taxpayers money doing this. but they did not address specifics in the report, and the documentation which the committee put out today, i talked with chairman maloney about this, and she said what called her the most as, over and over, again all the lies that the trump organization told about what they're actually charging. and they're saying it's 50, dollars when i was really $1, 185, is a pretty big difference. so it's not just a absorbents, it's also the deceit in her mind. >> okay, galling, grotesque, offensive. here's the thing charles, if it's not illegal, trump's just going to keep on doing it. >> you're absolutely right. i think there's an important distinction between unethical and illegal. given what you knew know and what you don't know so far, is very clear that this is not ethical. but whether it's illegal remains yet to be seen, i think this is just the latest example of how donald trump has, on many different occasions, in many different ways, exposed loopholes in our system. these loopholes need t

high-pitch eric trump even treated the crowd to a phone call with his old man. >> so we're going to callim quickly. does that make sense? so dad. you have an amazing crowd. i'm here in pennsylvania. >> i hope my wonderful son is treating everybody fantastically. he works so hard. he's such a great guy. >> jimmy: hold on, can we zoom in on that phone and take a closer look?

[ applause ] if you do have the winning ticket, you're strongly encouraged to call the lottery's customer service line. which i imagine doesn't get a lot of calls. do you think they have a person sitting waiting -- are you paying attention? >> guillermo: yeah, yeah, somewhat. i am paying attention to you, yeah.

i just want to play what eric trump said in 2019 about what the trump spends at trump properties. >> if my father travels, they stay out of properties for free. he stays a fortune because if they were go to the hotel across the street, we charge him 50 bucks. >> that doesn't appear to be true. i wondering what you made of the comments from eric trump juxtaposed with what the house oversight committee report. >> the house oversight committee report appears to be based on actual data from what was being spent by the government. , it made clear for a while that all trump was charging the secret service, there have been reports about it in realtime that donald trump was she charging the secret service rates to stay at his property. they did not appear to be below market value or minimum, this current report suggests it was well above that. trump always justifies these things to people as, well, we lose the rooms otherwise, or things that he would say privately. again, there is a vast difference between what he and members of his family have said about what they were doing, what the busin

in a statement on behalf of trump org, eric trump responded by saying in part, quote, the trump family is likely the first family in american history to have not profited off of the united states government. we won't even bother fact checking that. in previous interviews eric trump said they gave discounts for staying at their hotels and only charged about $50 a night. >>> still ahead, we'll have highlights from what was a pretty bad monday night football game plus the astros will have to wait at least one more day to find out their opponent in the american league championship series.

eric trump said the trump family business charged the government about $50 a night for the secret serviceay in its hotels. the house oversight committee as you said found that to be very far from the truth. take a look at these numbers they released showing the trump organization charged the secret service some $1,160 a night for eric trump to stay. another 1,185 for donald trump jr. to stay at that hotel. both visits there more than five times the typical government rate. the secret service paying more than $1.4 million to trump properties since he took office. now, in a statement, eric trump says that the hotel stays were at the request of secret service and were either provided at cost, heavily discounted or for free. he said, the company would have been substantially better off if hospitality services were sold to full paying guests but not addressing his previous claims that the rooms would cost $50 and the committee said that $1.4 million is probably significantly higher because it didn't have a full accounting. and the chairwoman of that committee is saying that this may have resul

for agents protecting eric trump on march 8, 2017. the government rate for d.c. ovember 8, another ledger shows the secret service was charged $1,185 to lodge agents protecting donald trump jr. the government rate was $201. i'm guessing -- and protection is every day, all day and all night. i'm guessing that if you run the numbers, you're at hundreds of millions of dollars. >> well, as clair said, it's always the grift. it's always the lies. and this story about the ripping off of the tax payers, the ripping off of the secret service, will probably be less than one paragraph in the book of donald trump's corruption, which will probably run about 10,000 pages. this is the problem with it. there is just so much. it's been so egregious. the shamelessness with which they have ripped off the tax payers, the way that they have used taxpayer money to enrich themselves and continue to do that, is not new. it is not breaking news. their willingness to brazenly lie about it is not news. the question is whether they will ever be held accountable in any meaningful way for it.

any involvement by any of the actual officers of the trump organization, donald trump himself, eric trump, ivanka trump, et cetera? if so, there could be legal consequences to be in a separate proceeding and second of all, will we see evidence of other crimes, other than this tax scheme that does happen sometimes at trial, ana. you'll see someone is on trial for crime a and during the case other evidence will come out showing perhaps they were engaged in crimes b, c and d. >> i don't understand. the company is being charged but not trump or his kids? this is their company so how can that be? >> i also don't understand but let me try to explain the best i can. the only individual whose been charged here is allen weisselberg, the long-time chief financial officer of the organization. he was given cooperation deal by the prosecutors. that is counter to everything i was taught as a prosecutor. here is why. i was taught when someone cooperates it has to be all or nothing. someone like allen weisselberg would have to give us everything he knows and testify about everybody but prols cue tor pro

remember, i started in 2006, 2007, this allegedly in the nineties, you know, when this happened, eric trump made the statement and i think we should get him up here and he should certainly be able to answer that, though at the time. i don't even think he was born. look, the kids like, their father are just stupid. there's no other way to there. i mean, eric is the dumbest of the top three. and it's really it's an absolute shame because he not only is he dumb, but he talks. so you know if you're stupid, you should know that you're stupid and keep your mouth shut. it's about, you know, my grandmother used to say that. yeah, you can't argue with stupid. let him speak because they embarrassed themselves. that's eric. now, don, interestingly enough, happens to be the inherently the smartest of them all. it's not ivanka. everybody thinks, oh, it's ivana ivanka. right? it's not ivanka. she's the most prepared, she's the most phony like her father. but i believe don is probably the smartest, but he's just i don't know what happened to him, but for god's sakes, that's not the same donald junior that
