welcome back to the show you, tell us in the book the big cheat, -- was ivanka trump and her husbandtax save in. no trump employment better is sure the potential for america becoming a con toxicity then jared and ivanka wielded in the trump white house. it's crazy to me that that was all legal to. >> yes, well one of the things that donald was exposed to is not only a weak white collar crime laws in america's. entire life we. have always assume that the president would act as if the -- none of our rules assume that someone would come in and say this is all for me, i'm going to be a dictator i, can make any money any way want. or is donald, put it i have an article two that says i can do anything i want. which is not what our constitution says. >> and on ivanka, mark meadows, who's held in criminal contempt of congress, is out with a book, he says donald trump infamous bible photo op at, live by a square, and the middle of the protests, was actually in vodka's idea. she thought that it would signal law in order. if we take meadows's word for it, this couldn't have been worse advice. s

they're going after don jr., eric, ivanka, a whole slew of individuals, family, you know, family as wellosition, you would think that he would be the guy to know where all the bones are buried so to speak. >> yes, so anything dealing with financial allen weisselberg was the receptor of all that information. no dollar came in that he wasn't aware of, and no dollar ever left the trump organization without allen weisselberg's knowledge or sign-off. i mean, that's just how the process worked. donald never wrote a check. he wasn't aware of what was going in and going out until allen weisselberg would bring him a document, show him, and now remember something, too, donald actually signed almost every single check, other than the ones for like phone bills or things that were routine, donald would receive on his desk in a little manila folder every single day a stack of 50, 75, 100 checks, and he would personally sign each and every check, so the notion that donald is going to be able to claim that he had no knowledge of it, well, of course he did. no different than my $35,000 checks for the rep

they did, they went after my kids, my kids, ivanka had a successful company, we knew it would cost.make a lot of money during the presidency, and obama with netflix and all that, nobody lookings at that, made millions from a book. he got more money from a book than anyone that came close to, why do you pay money for a book? so much stuff to goes on. i knew i would hurt my wealth. didn't matter, i am wealthy, but to do it right, i could -- i could have made deals with everyone. deals in saudi arabia, i could have made deals with everyone. they all wanted me on make deals, i said don't do it. i could have made -- quadrupled my fortune, 10 times bigger. i knew that doing it would be expensive -- doing this would be expensive. when you look at so many other -- look at things that happened with biden over the years. you look at what the son is doing, great artists don't get near what he gets for a painting, that is such a scam. if i said about prosecutors what he said about the prosecutor in ukraine, about the two bill -- dollars not going to ukraine. it would be over. you talk about qui

jared and ivanka.nd poet laureate kid rock. >> it's an amazing four years, we're trying to do another four years, otherwise i'll see you in four years. [ coughing ] >> and everyone gets a gift to take home. alert, rudy has caught wind of something. >> i will ask that he be disciplined for that. [ fart sound ] >> rooty tooty filled the air with doody. speaking of gas bags. >> the process is flawed when your urine is more protected than your vote. >> a lot of people think all indians look alike. i think all chinese look alike. >> i signed something saying if i'm wrong, i could go to prison, did you? >> give them hell, karen brockovich. this has been "this week in covid history." [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: we're going to take a break. when we come back, we will put pedestrians' knowledge of omicron to a new installment to the test in "lie witness news." stick around, we'll be right back. >> jimmy: hi, there, welcome back. dr. ken jeong and the ladies from "pen15" are with us. but first, i have a st

being followed by ivanka being followed -- that's where we are. it's going to take the media, senate -- the most important right now is the senate democrats. "build back better," if we don't save the democracy, i don't have time for it, okay? they have to figure out a way to get this done. by the way, the ap story is more permission structure for the manchins and sinemas to say, we didn't want to carve out the filibuster piece but we've been left no option. >> good point and it starts there, the senate filibuster. mona's point, the latest polling on this from the ap and oarc, this is from july, there may be more recent polling. as of july, 66% of republicans do not think joe biden was legitimately elected president. i can't imagine the number has gotten better in the meantime. mehdi? >> i mean, that poll is stunning, but also the polling mona mentioned, which republicans think democracy is more threatened than democrats do. that is voters. that is a massive indictment of the democratic party leadership. we talked about senate democrats. david ment

. >> well, it's amazing because it like he knows two jewish people, right, ivanka and jared.t of mystified at the idea that other people might be jewish and not -- because the more he talks, the more anti-semitic he seems. it's really interesting. >> david, your reaction. >> well, it's really something for some of us whose parents and family fled the holocaust to come to the united states and have the country's most notorious defender of nazis and white supremacists tell jews that he knows what's best for us. there's a word for them in yiddish, chutzpah, but it's the worst form of chutzpah. >> he thinks about the blacks and the italians and irish and so everyone is categorized by him. of course, of course when he gets around to jewish people, he's going to sound like this. >> yeah, it's amazing. the best part of the whole thing was he said the salzbergers were jews because they have a game that sounds like us, a little ethnic and it's just an amazing trumpy thing. he doesn't have a lot of knowledge and he just rolls real quick and is very superficial and fees he is entitled t

his own daughter, ivanka trump, came in to try to tell him toed to do something.d on the hill if he could do it on january 6th by ordering out the national guard, by doing any number of things and because he was sworn to do that as president of the united states by his oath of office. >> and that's the 187 minutes that we heard from the committee last week, they talked about that so much. as was revealed in these text messages and congressman kinzinger also says the committee has more texts they haven't released and he says it's not folks saying things like hey, mark meadows, why don't you make sure all the votes are counted and that whoever has the most votes win? so, look, if it's proven that members of congress were involved in this plot, what then? >> they -- they potentially could fall within -- within the scope of criminal liability if they did something to, um, help or encourage people to break, you know, to come up to capitol hill. if they gave suggestions about how to do that, we don't know. if they did anything of that sort, they are potentially liable.

ivanka: the global stock rebound loses steam as investors weigh uncertainty over the virus and stimulus to announce measures to boost consumption and stabilize the e

ivanka: the journey to this point has been a long and winding run.ind you of some of the key developments. you may remember back on october 20, that is when they scrapped the sale of their property management arm, which would have helped raise some much needed cash, and a few days later, the government asked the evergrande founder to tap his own wealth for help, and evergrande managed to make some of those last-minute payments in november and avoid default, but in december, that is when we started to see things change it. we got details on construction plan that would have aborted -- aborted offshore bonds. finally, evergrande was cut to restricted by fitch. david: when you look at these stock prices right now, you are going to see continuation, really just wherever we go with the story. 1.7% to the downside. not so grounded -- not so grande move, if you will. we're looking at equity markets. there we go. most of these are the allowed intraday moves. let's have a look, please, at your imap function. your second group, this is what we are seeing. just

amplified this belief that he hasn't actually lost, even though some of the earlier reports were that ivankair next real estate purpose almost immediately, people related to him knew that he lost to joe biden. the delusional americans don't exist without the amplification of the delusional ex-president. nothing can change donald trump, nothing and no one, but the radicalization of his supporters does not happen absent fox news, and i wonder if you think we know more about where we're heading and is that now abundantly clear that the greatest threat to the homeland in terms of domestic terrorism is not al qaeda. fox news, i think saw themselves as part of the patriotic response after 9/11. they are now amplifying the messages that people who wish to do us harm are attracted to, messages about stop the steal, attack some public health measures like masking and vaccine mandates. where does that lead us? what does that new frame of reference mean for the country? >> well, you know, fox and trump have a feedback loop as we all know. but the bottom line is that trump sets the tune and everyone els

rules and then ivanka trump rules. that's where we are today. so, i think the politics of it, yes, could be complicated, but they have to take a backseat. >> yeah, and when you explain it that clearly, it is just an absolutely a harrowing thought to think we are 36 months away from our democracy being at this crossroads and potentially this time not sustaining the pressure that it was put under on january 6th. jackie, i want to get to a point, though, that david talked about earlier, which was, when you have a large part of this country, 60% of the population, believing the election was stolen, you watch the fox news and the conservative media echo chambers since last night, no mention of these tweets, no mention of mark meadows, january 6th is portrayed as a political protest, people on trial for january 6th portrayed as political prisoners and martyrs in the context of the right-wing media, how do you breakthrough? how does anyone break through to that part of the country to get them to understand what's at stake? is there a concerted plan by

jared and ivanka made hundreds of millions of dollars while trump was in office.ere are, i think, half a dozen hatch act violations that have been chronicled after they left office. what -- as someone who sort of covers this intersection of ethical exploits and trump's willingness to trample norms, what does it say about the structure of our laws? are you surprised there isn't more attention paid to reforming them with trump chomping at the bit to run again? >> i am a little bit. there were things, you know, very big things like keeping the hotel and doing business with foreign governments while he was president and there were really small things like trump charging the secret service to guard him at his own hotels, like trump awarding the -- briefly awarding the g7 summit to his own golf resort. that were not technically illegal because people thought, well, a president would never do that and i thought maybe the rules would change, but obviously, they haven't. so, i don't think if trump is re-elected in 2024, i don't see there being a legal bar to him doing the

those communications sounded like, how they were met, who walked them into the oval office, whether ivankars articulated or expressed concern. i mean, we may really piece together the inside of the oval office, again, not because trump emailed anything, but because others may have walked out and sent an email to another colleague and said, i don't have anything yet. >> yeah, no, that's right. and we know that kevin mccarthy called from the capitol, begging the president to do more, to try to help, to call off what was happening. we know that the vice president was on the phone, calling back to the white house, trying to get a handle on the situation. we know that though trump himself wasn't on email, people around him that day certainly were. the switchboard's an interesting question because we know throughout the four years of the trump presidency, he would often try to get around that and give out his personal cell phone to people, one so he could get those calls because there was a stretch when john kelly was chief of staff that he prevented that from happening. he had those calls scree

like ivanka and jared and donald trump jr. everyone has a gift to take home. alert. rudy called win of something. >> i would be asked for him to be disciplined for that. >> rooty-tooty. >> science is saying something if i am wrong, i can go to prison. did you? >>. >> give them hell karen brockovich. this is this week in covid history. >> wow. [ applause ] >>> that was a good one. good morning. welcome to "morning joe." it's thursday, december 2nd, with us we have elise jordan is back with us, the host of "way too early," jonathan lemire, there he is. last night the january 6th select committee voted to recommend another contempt of congress charge. this will one for a formal justice official who was apart of trump's attempt to subvert his 2020 loss. we are learning more about the people around trump who helped him undermine public health. namely, the revelation that the former president tested positive for coronavirus three days before his first presidential debate with joe biden. the news was first reported by the guardian which cited excerpts by the upcoming books

airbnb apologized and offered a ivanka trump to the shocked tourists.ack to you guys. oh my gosh. steve: i think that would be fantastic if youd takeout because it would be pretty immediate. room service right here? let me stick my hand through the window. carley: my first apartment in new york city i just remembered this, i had totally forgotten, in order to do the laundry, you know, there is a basement with washers and driers, you had to almost crawl through the kitchen of a restaurant because the building, it was like apartments on top, kitchen, this is such a new york city experience. but i would be in my pajamas with my bag of laundry saying hi to kitchen workers. brian: isn't that the -- is that girl on fox, wasn't she the one with -- was always doing laundry during a busy time? carley: at least they know i have clean clothes. brian: eventually. started off dirty. steve: ashley, thank you very much. ashley: no problem. steve: coming up 7:20 here in the east. the fate of an aexcused seeks trafficker ghislaine maxwell. the trial captivating the coun

the trump administration led by ivanka trump had tremendous-- hundreds of corporations for better job-trainingshortages remaining is we paid people not to work, overly generous unemployment compensation and various welfare programs that had no work requirements there is a brand-new study out from geniuses at the national bureau of economic research, my friend glenn hubbard among them, that said those states last summer about 25, 26 states that went off of the unemployment insurance several months before the federal, they dropped out of that and they had a two thirds increase in employment as people came back to work because the overly generous benefits were gone. so, it's interesting. carley: larry, to that point, president biden just extended the pause on student loan payments until may 1. why is this happening? the economy is wide open >> he's extending the pause, so that's actually a good thing, i mean, i don't think that the rest of the country should have to pay-- it's roughly 70, 75% of the country would have to finance 30 some odd percent of those that have a quote unquote debt repaymen
