errol louis.is point, it's difficult to imagine how the -- the president go in front of the cameras, to the american people, to the world, to explain mistakes when it comes to funding the ukrainians in this battle against the russians. no question about. it russia rolls into a nato country, this becomes a much more expensive proposition. errol and kayla tausche, thank, you we appreciate it. -- keep an eye on the senate floor, see how this voters shaping up, to keep the government running. we will be right back. you're probably not easily persuaded to switch mobile providers for your business. but what if we told you it's possible that comcast business mobile can save you up to 75% a year on your wireless bill versus the big three carriers? it's true. plus, when you buy your first line of mobile, you get a second line free. there are no term contracts or line activation fees. and you can bring your own device. oh, and all on the most reliable 5g mobile network nationwide. wireless that works for yo

this is a big moment for the exact reasons that erroll said. this is a guy whose entire rise is predicated upon the idea that he's a very rich, successful billionaire. >> the fact you said that because it's a civil trial, he doesn't have to be in court. he will have to be in court for the criminal trial coming up. >> yes. >> he didn't go to the e. jean carole trial for example. what does this tell us about what's important to him? >> it's all about the money. it's all about the benjamins. michael cohen made this point. this is something that's been hiding in plain sight. it's not like getting al capone. he's taking this personally. the judge's initial -- that was blistering. >> the judge gets to decide this one, not a jury. the same judge. >> it's a great point because the former president attacked the judge along with letitia james in a social media post last night. you're a lawyer. would you advise attacking the judge? >> oh, no you don't. especially if there's no jury. it's one thing to attack the process and the court because you're trying

we'll bring in errol louis, and john avlon. errol, i want to play some of the comments to our colleague manu raju which really captured things. take a listen. >> now is not the time to be attacking our ally, you're not going to find me throwing verbal grenades at the israeli leadership. >> psalms 122 :6 you pay for th peace of jerusalem, those who do will prosper. the former is just wrong. >> let's make it clear. he's a fool. he's a fool. only a fool would make those kind of comments. >> that obviously was not about the house republican conference. >> we'll get to that. >> i'll read for you what austin scott told manu raju, he said how does this make you look? and congressman scott said it makes us look like idiots, not an isolated comment. >> and it's not wrong, on the other hand in an odd way this is the system working in the sense that -- >> go on. >> look, they represent the divisions of the country, right, i mean, you know, unless they cross the aisle and work out some kind of stable centrist governing pattern, which is at

we're joined now by cnn political analyst and political anchor of spectrum news, errol louis. good morning. a speaker not in place for ten days, we have the war in ukraine funding about to run out in four to five weeks. the u.s. house of representatives is apparently paralyzed, right? tell me about the big tasks at hand that cannot get done as a result of this standstill with no speaker. >> good morning, amara. that's right. in the medial term, you've got the question of even expressions of support for israel as well as a funding package. we're expecting a senate delegation to go over to the middle east and come back with a request for funding to support israel that can't be acted on. we know there are ongoing needs in ukraine. same outcome. no way to vote for the money. the speaker of the house is one of the most important positions in american government. it's second in line if something should happen to the president. that seat is currently unfilled. it's extraordinary. the government is going to run out of money in 34 days. all of the different priorities here at home will

good morning, errol. concerning time for israel, another huge headache to add to the long list of headaches for president biden. we know u.s. is a staunch ally of israel. with this unprecedented attack by hamas, these really concerning infiltrations that they're dealing with right now, this all comes amidst a strained relationship backdrop between president biden and netanyahu. they met on the sidelines of the unga. where do things go from here? what do we expect to hear from the white house? >> good morning. i think what we're going to find is that there's going to be a real intense look to see how far this goes, the extent of these attacks. if this is the kind of uprising that hamas appears to have called for, that's a whole different situation than if this is simply rocket attacks that are sent by frustrated people who can be dealt a military blow and then sort of contained and returned to the status quo. if there's something larger going on, that might even include outside players like iran, it starts

, was having a child with errol's person he'd raised as a stepdaughter. so this is an emotional turmoil. the breakup with amber. his father, fathering a child with someone he thought was his stepsister and the 20 production hell. and almost everybody he's married or gone out with is there for the drama, justine, his first wife, they just would fight. they'd go to bookstore, keep giving politics & prose a shoutout, but they'd go and have huge fights. amber said he's a fool for love, and he associates drama with love. if things are calm -- and the only really calm relationship he had was with this wonderful person tallulah riley who he married twice, but she was just a calming influence and he would say, you know, and kimbell would say, it would have been great because-- but instead, including crimes, a really great, fun person, she can be dramatic. >> as much as he wants to populate other planets, he's done a pretty good job of populating this one. >> yeah, he actually-- but it's a weird -- everything is mission-driven and you think, okay, that's whacky, o

i didn't hear anything in that speech that would get any of those folks to flip. >> errol, to you, same sort of question. what was the purpose then and did he fulfill it? >> he is trying as far as i could tell to sort of in real time do a makeover, try to recast himself on the national stage as somebody who could be the speaker, you know, sort of in the raburn room talking broadly, talking in a way that is completely at odds with his actual history, his political history, his legislative history, history of not passing a bill -- >> thin. >> non-existent. and so he is trying to sort of recast himself. we have seen this before. any number of people remade themselves politically. he is entitled to try. it wasn't terribly convincing. i don't know what his colleagues think about this. he is trying to act like a responsible person, not bomb thrower, not a legislative terrorist, which boehner -- and in congress. and so a thin record, with a lot of people who have seen through a lot of his act, with the threat to intimidation, by the way, which he didn't mention. members of congress are being t

because a strata is errol. good. that's the reason. i mean they, we believe that we have all the, the biases. we spend millions of dollars in this barrier, which really looks very impressive and very threatening. and we believe that that's enough to leave me in the security. but when you are facing a cage in open present, which is now 17 years, know the almost delta they know you can expect everyone to send this to. and no offense got to stop in and apparently. so this conception that repeats itself, again a game that is what it can do, whatever it was, and we are totally secure and good. and we've seen all this political squabbling and israel that led up to the formation of its most extreme right wing government. how much does this ongoing political prices lead to what many see is the degradation of these really defense forces readiness and its capabilities? i wouldn't exaggerate 0 these they awesome critics. they were, sounds bleeds, and that's what makes me was influence this cries, this is the fact that this government or its energ

errol was 21, in the special forces. one of the first to cross the border. >> you're just afraid that there's something waiting for you at every corner. >> reporter: the experiences then left him questioning the ak tactics today. the idf wants people to leave. and they told them to stay. just as it's happening now. some stayed. the orders ashoe the civilians who left. >> whoever you see is engaged in fighting. and therefore, we call it engaging with fire with any home you enter, with any kind of shape of a person that you see from afar. >> in many ways, israel's actions are playing out just as they have in the past. 2021 gun positions, freshly dug, back in use. and in gaza, the civilian death toll, according to palestinian officials, higher than in 2014. and like then, israel is already facing huge international pressure. to avoid more civilian casualties. >> what we are doing is saying privately, what we said publicly, which is that all military operation should be conducting consistent with the law of war. civilians sh

. >>> let's bring in political commentator and cnn contributor errol louis. former speaking majority mccarthy suggested tom emmer. does he have a better shot, i guess, than any of the other candidates thus far? >> good morning, victor. he has a bit of a shot. it's unclear what's going to happen when they have this beauty contest, if you want to call it that, on monday. look, the reality is there's a question underlying all of this turmoil they're going to have to answer. whether they answer it on monday or any other time, they're going to have to e decide whether this chaos caucus is going to be what the party stands for, at least the congressional delegation. the congress has to decide whether they actually want to legislate or whether or not they want leadership. it's remarkable when you think about it. if they want leadership like jim jordan who's never authored a piece of legislation that actually passed, what they're really saying is legislation is not what the conference is going to be about. now, there are a number of people there who think that is sho

i want to bring in political anchor erroll lewis. mike pence dropping out, understand that's not going to dramatically reshape the race, but there's long been a thought that it needs to narrow to actually put a challenge up to trump. is that something that's about to start happening? >> unlikely. in part because of our broke campaign system. if you have a couple billionaire backers who want to flood money into a big pac, and most of the leading candidates have that, you can stay in endefinitely. there's no particular reason to drop out. if for penn pensacola, the numbers were so damning and daunting, clearly, he had to make a choice. but if you're ron desantis who had a bunch of campaign money leftover from his races in florida and it's in a superpac and they can continue spending, there's no particular reason to drop out. you can hope that trump has a legal or political stumble that takes him out of the race, but there's no particular reason to think they are all going to get together and say i'm the best challenger, so the rest of

. >> with us now is political commen commentator erroll lewis. it's great to have you at the table. this is not new that dean phillips has been saying that. i admire what biden has done. but he is consistently said the numbers aren't there in the polling. the age is an issue. so what do you make of him jumping in? what's it going to mean and do? >> first of all, that comment about the numbers is going to blow up in his face when we start looking at numbers that show people don't know who he is, what he stands for or why they should vote for him. numbers cut both ways. 50 plus years in politics and national leadership by joe biden counts for a lot. it does mean something and will play out in the numbers. the fact that he's polling and has this tough question about his age and whether or not people think that's disqualifying for the president, absolutely. valid questions. is he the right person, the right messenger to bring it forward, it's hard to see how. >> talked to white house folks on a regular basis. are they concerned? >> they are just shrugging this off as we don't care. it d

joining me now, political commentator errol louis. essentially saying that she tricked these republicans into supporting santos, and help falsified documents, that does not mean good things for him. >> oh no no, that smells of huge political problems from, and very, very serious legal consequences as well. the political problems are obvious, she is going to be sentenced to prison, this comes with the recommendation that she serve as much as five years in prison. she is going to be sentenced in april. now, in those six months before that happens, she is going to be talking, obviously with prosecutors, and they were indicted at the same time. this is a campaign that benefited him, so the crimes that she admitted to in court today we're really on his behalf. and while he claims that she went rogue and he had nothing to do with it, that is going to be very very difficult claim to explain. both to voters and prosecutors. >> yeah, our testimony -- she doesn't have a cooperation agreement yet but this seems to almost guarantee she will get.

other arab states and that is certainly been a very good thing, israel's gradual acceptance in the erroll world. it can mask the fact that the fundamental conflict is between israelis and palestinians. and they are fighting over the same sliver of land between the mediterranean sea and the jordan river. and the conflict is always there beneath the surface, and may always erupt, especially because the conditions of the more than 2 million palestinians in gaza and of the more than 2 million palestinians in the west bank are very dire, very dire in gaza. and conditions of frequent humiliation almost constant oppression in the west bank. and this gives rise to an anger that can erupt at any moment. and that is what we have seen now. gaza is really a terrible place. i've been there frequently, but a lot of the responsibility for that lies with hamas and what -- there was a brief moment when israel withdrew from gaza, withdrew its settlements. and there were terrible scenes in 2005. there was a brief moment when it seemed that things might get better there. but in fact, once hamas took control,

with a marketing degree, and then my dad had asked her if she wanted to come and work with them at le errol. >> shele eventually became a private wealth manager. the money was good, and so was the priest stage. >> shele was fancy. she was smart. she was educated. >> shelley's friend remembers the days she took her to the club. it was wintertime, she was wearing her coat. men just came over to her. it was like being swept off her feet. >> he's got the finance job, the style -- she kind of was the classic new york city woman. >> absolutely. absolutely she was. >> in february of 1998, shele went to a jewish single mixer and manhattan were sparks through with a guy she met there. his name, roderick covlin. she called her sister that night with an outrageous -- >> she was all giggles and said i met a guy, really nice guy, and she says we are on our way to the airport. she was laughing, and i said shelley please don't do. this >> evening her sister out of it that night, but shelley was serious, and so was rod. shelley was 11 years older than him, but that didn't seem to matter. his parents, david

about a year and they broke up right at 2018, right when his father, erol, was having a child with errol's person. he had raises a stepdaughter. so this is an emotional turmoil to break up with amber, his father following a child with somebody he thought was his stepsister. and to the production house. but almost everybody he is married had gone out with. it's there for the drama. justin, his first wife, they just would fight. they'd go to bookstores. i keep going. politics and prose, a shout out. but this was kepler's in palo alto and they're getting huge fights. and i think amber was said to me, you know, he's a fool for love. and he associate drama with love. if things are calm and the only really calm relationship he had was with this wonderful person, tallulah riley, who he married twice. but she she was just a calming influence. and he would say, you know, in campbell would say it would have been great because but instead, he's including grimes, which is a really great, fun, good person. she can be dramatic much as he wants to populate other planets. he's done a pretty good job of po

paul: we had a deal to avert a shutdown of errol agencies.he government will run until november 17. it will come at a heavy political cost to kevin mccarthy. let's get over to bloomberg's washington correspondent kailey leinz. so how did the deal happen and what are the questions that we are left with? >> it was extremely last-minute. they barely got this done before the deadline but the deal did happen in a bipartisan way read you have more democrats in the house of representatives voted for it than republicans who are in the majority read and they won by a landslide in the senate. this will temporarily keep the government funded through november 17 at which point we may have to do the whole song and dance again, but it is keeping the status quo of spending or not spending cuts and $16 million in disaster relief. something the biden administration been pushing for. something else the administration has been pushing for and did not get in the package was ukraine funding. this has been a sticking point among republicans. many far right republi
