jared golden, your 45. thank you.gain, we need to expand medicaid, we need to do that for those 80,000 people in maine. unfortunately, bill that the congressman voted for would have taken access to medicaid away from ten thes of thousands of -- tens of thousands of mainers. when i worked for the homeland security committee staff, i actually worked on aing grant program called operation stone garden which worked to encourage local law enforcement to work with federal authorities like customs and border patrol and i.c.e. to help secure our border, do drug interdiction. we use that right here in maine, and so i just wanted to get back to that issue because there's false claims that i somehow don't want law enforcement to work with federal enforcement. i used to drive policy on this issue when i worked for senator susan collins. >> okay. tiffany vaughn? there's a lot of great solutions on the stage, so i don't want to rehash those. i do want to talk about the amount of resources that go into our congressional races. today

jared, you just mentioned this. i don't know how anybody with a d rating with the nra and an f rating with the gun owners of maine and didn't even talk to the sportsman alliance of maine could ever even think about representing our second district here in maine. another thing that's really important, jared is the only political figure in the state of maine that's visible, highly visible, i should say that is supporting a 3.8% surtax on our income. that will take maine's income tax rate to almost 11%, more than california, more than new york, and double the highest rate in massachusetts. that's why he got a 100% -- he votes 100% against small business in maine. it's horrible. not the way to go. >> 45 seconds? >> thank you. i don't think a high rating with the nra ensures anyone's safety. guns kill, but at the same time they can be a good time. i enjoy going shooting with my father-in-law. i don't think anyone here or any politician that i know of is saying get rid of guns. but it seems politicians especially during m

let's listen. >> i can't say enough good thing s with jared ivanka. what i have done working with him on the middle peace plan, it is so unbelievably well done. >> hidden genius. he finds himself at the sescent of a lot of them and we have read going back to the beginning. >> so i think it brings a point of the rule of law and concerns for the rule of law. it is more than that, concerns for rule of corruption and the idea that family and that nepotism is right now is intrinsically what the white house are made up of. wider perceptions of kushner is split into two camps. people call him the hidden genius and you have omarosa who accused him of being stupider than he appears to be. i think right now there is some thing to what kushner is doing in the white house particularly around issues on geopolitical issues. he has his hands-on that and apparently on issues of bureaucratic reorganization. >> i have not heard a lot on that but currently he's in there. one of these things are figure out what is his role in the white house and larger kind of over archi

jared and ivanka. >> i can't say enough good things about jared and ivanka. jared is such a hidden genius that no one understands. i mean, to redo the nafta deal the way he did. what i've done working with him on the middle east peace plan, it is so unbelievably well done. ivanka's been just a great friend. they do a lot of things behind the scenes that i wish more people knew about. >> so take that at face value. that is the narrative that ivanka and jared have been pushing all along, all that we do behind the scenes, and jared is largely credited with this nafta 2.0. a deal that will be tough for democrats to even turn down. do you think ivanka could be next in line? senate confirmation would be tough for her. she could get appointed in reset, get herself back to new york and be on a world tour. >> that whole clip was about jared so why not have it be jared instead of ivanka? now, there have been lots of stories particularly in washington about how the two of them desperately want to come back to new

jared is such a hidden genius that no one understands.i mean to redo the nafta deal the way he did, what i've done working with him on the middle east peace plan, it is so unbelievably well done. and ivanka has been just a great friend, and they do a lot of things behind the scenes that i wish more people knew about because we're a better country because they're in this administration. >> the last word and what's your read on that? i'm sorry to interrupt but i wanted people to see it. >> thank you for playing it because i think it really left out -- that is not normal for a sort of good-bye photo opp of that nature. and so it was -- it seemed both purposeful on ambassador haley's part and very strikstriking. on the one hand, obviously president trump loves it when his family is praised by those around him. on the other hand, it seems in a factional white house, right, where it's really been riven by infighting from the beginning, it's also sort of an acknowledgement of which faction, which team nikki haley was playing on. and especially i

>> this is the first time we have heard anything from jared kushner about this situation. despite his relationship with mbs that has been in some ways at the center of this whole controversy, now kushner is declining -- he denies he is in any way sort of at the center of the president's middle east policy on this. but he did say that he did speak to mbs, and he told the crown prince that transparency is of the essence here. but when he was asked by van jones in this interview about some of these varying accounts from the saudis and how they really kind of veer from what we know based on clarissa's reporting and others, kushner really declined to criticize the saudis at all, and instead, he emphasized the long-standing relationship with the united states. listen. >> we're more in the fact-finding phase, and we're obviously getting as many facts as we can from the different places. and then we'll determine which facts are credible, and then after that, the president and the secretary of state will make a determination as to what we deem to be credible and what actions we thi

erik: skinned lamb head. >> jared: were sheep balls really that good?ck: you may throw-up a little bit in your mouth while trying to get it down, but it was never awful. >> mo: i definitely did not eat all the stuff that tony ate. >> anthony: ooh, liver sandwich. that's encouraging. i offer something to my producer and he goes literally running. >> josh: i did not eat all the weird things tony ate. i ate a lot of things that tony didn't want to eat. [ laughter ] >> helen: on the rare occasion, tony would offer us some -- some treats. [ laughter ] anthony: helen, do you like this stuff? >> helen: no, i've never had it. >> anthony: there you go, helen. come on. let's see. >> helen: we were filming a scene at pojangmacha and they had silk worm stew. >> anthony: she hasn't been here since she's 4-years old. >> really? >> anthony: yeah. >> helen: the crew obvious meant a lot to him. yeah, it was -- it was a trip i won't forget, you know? >> we were his best friends. we had amazing conversations about our favorite movies. we would have a conversation about ou

rare to hear jared kushner and be out in public explaining the administration. as kaitlan said, this is mike pompeo and the president, this is his portfolio. jared kushner that the crown prince called to say we didn't do this. how invested is he? >> i think he is pretty invested and doesn't want to openly say he is invested. the president was trying to sprayed not just himself from the saudi government, but jared kushner as well. suggesting he doesn't have that keep of a relationship with him. that is contrary to all of our reporting and the facts that have been established. i don't think and i sat on the panel and i didn't think he offered a detailed explanation of how they are going about this. it was fact finding and it is true that he tried to push this off and would not talk about the advice he has given to his father in law. they have taken this administration in various positions from the get go and left themselves outs. i didn't see him doing anything. >> the saudis said they need another month. that gets us past the mid-terms. how does the u.s. respond?

when jared got into the room the conversation was about russian adoption.om for 10 or 12 minutes. what happened before he came in and what happened after, he wasn't there to see. >> when the meeting ended goldstone said he was worried he had annoyed don jr. >> i said it was the most embarrassing thing. he said to me you know, i do lots of meetings, that's fine. it was kind of like there, there, it's okay. then he said i just have no idea what that was about. >> coming up, the story breaks. >> come on, you didn't remember you had offered dirt on hillary clinton from the russian government? ♪ ♪ ♪ comfort. what we deliver by delivering. my mom was freedom, and my dad, adventure. they baptized me in mud and christened me on rock, so i got tougher. they fostered a love of learning, so i got smarter. taught me to appreciate the finer things in life, so i became more civilized and refined. thank you, freedom and adventure, for giving me this rugged, civilized, wandering soul. for giving me this rugged, civilized, if these packs have the same number of bladder leak

did you feel like jared kushner was transparent with you this morning? >> i think on the stuff around massacre mbs, he was towing the white house line. i think it's unusual for him to speak at all in public. i think that's his first serious televised interview ever, but i think he was towing the trump administration line on that one. >> in terms of towing that line, too, in watching the interview this morning, you point out, he doesn't do a lot of interviews. we don't see him a lot. >> people haven't heard his voice. >> ever, in terms of his voice. and in watching it, i mean, we're all looking for signs when we watch these things, he seemed a little nervous. did he seem that way in person? >> look, he doesn't do interviews. i would say most people these days are megaphone leaders. he's a cell phone leader. he goes one on one with people, he doesn't try to seek a big audience. and so, yes, he was nervous before and he was nervous during and he was nervous after wit, b don't think because he had something to hide, i just think because he doesn't do this ki

then something like this happens and what do you hear from the jared allies, what do you hear from jaredlf? you hear absolutely nothing. suddenly they vacate the situation when it doesn't make them look good. and it offends me. >> kirsten, the president keeps saying that khashoggi wasn't american, that it didn't happen on american soil. do you think he's trying to take the focus off the horror of what the saudis allegedly did? >> yeah. they seem to be looking for a way to protect the saudis from this and i think it is again because jared is so invested and because the president is so focused on this arms deal that we have with them, which actually started in the obama administration but it's still a lot of money. and so i think he is looking for ways around this and also because i don't think he really cares that much about what happened or about any kind of human rights abuses. and i certainly don't think he cares very much about a journalist being killed, to be honest with you. so i think he is looking for a way to try to make it okay. but how would that make it any better? i don't und

of his son-in-law jared depends a bit on mohamed bin salman because jared put a lot of debt on nbs, tried to get further palestinian understanding to line up with the arab and iran. there's a lot at stake here. so trump is trying to be careful. he says he hasn't heard about any intelligence or any body. cnn has heard them but it's probably just as twhael trump doesn't hear them because i think that would make things very, very difficult. >> one of the biggest questions remaining in this whole mystery is where is khashoggi's body. the saudi explanation provides no information that a source close to the saudi royal palace is saying, the saudis don't know where it is. how key is this question for -- >> well, i don't think it's very key actually myself because it's quite clear that, you know, even the saudis admit that they killed him inside this

that mbs told people that he had jared kushner in his pocket. we should point out, jared kushner through his lawyer has denied all of this to the intercept. but there are some serious questions here about this relationship. >> yeah, and it's a problem when you try to run a relationship between the house of trump and the house of saud. >> there is no ambassador to saudi arabia. >> right. would take notes in a meeting if a senior american went over to meet with someone like mbs. i'm not sure that happened. there are those phone calls that seem to be totally offline, without record. so just a matter of good governance, it's a problem. and, of course, further questions about the family relationships in terms of money. i think this could be -- this is a real crisis, i think. real foreign policy crisis. not just a trump white house crisis. it's funny how foreign policy works and you have seen over the years -- this is a horrible war in yemen. famine with 1 million people. putin has killed people. there was the helsinki thing. but this one feels like i

jared kushner persuaded the president to take to a troiip t riyadh. to riyadh and the photos, that spoke volumes about the trajectory that this administration was going to go in. kushner, like everything else, there is a russia and the here. saudis have been trying to per sw trump administration to get closer on to the middle east. as to it was kind of this -- there are these negotiations going on behind the scenes that jared kushner for example thinks are very important to the security of united states. but at the expense of criticizing saudi arabia for its human rights abuses which the trump administration has not done. and i think that we will continue to see jared stand by and mbs as more information comes to light because the information is too important. i think that to pull out of this now especially when the saudis have the potential to blackmail kushner which they have said that they have him in his pocket, i think that it is really -- we just have to prepare for the worst here in terms of the trump administration continuing to the pattern of

jared kushner does. so to say that he believes a king who is 8 years old who has dementia over his intelligence, that means he wants to cover up this because america's foreign policy today under this administration boils down in all its vulgarity -- you can get away with murder. buy weapons and buy apartment from trump. >> philip, the president is sort of running a little bit of cover for the saudis today floating the rogue elements. steve mnuchin, everyone has dropped out of this conference. >> except for steve mnuchin. a except for steve mnuchin, you have pompeo going there. it seems the white house is trying to figure out how to save the saudis and save bin salman having been caught red-handed murdering someone. >> who threatened them, chris. >> they're trying to buy a little bit of time. the decision has not been made of the treasury secretary. he remains on the agenda for this conference later in the week. the white house may end up pulling him depending how this meeting with secretary of state pomp

does jared's role continue?i mean, jared kushner really made thi relationship with mohammad bin salman kind of his claim have influence in the white house. he cultivated this guy. they're both young men in their 30's. their similar in the shase they're heirs to families with large fortunes. so there was sort of an affinity that jar really played on. and so for him, it's arguably an even bigr setback than it is for his father-in-law. we understand and we'veeported that jared's kind of advice leading up to tonight's announcement was to stand b mbs. we know him by his nickne, mbs. and that in effect, the world would move on after a decent period. ng tos clearly not g happen. in terms of what it means concretely for jared, it's wortn ng out that mbs and the saudis had already told the ump administration, we will not publicly advocate on behalf of your peace plan because you moved thembassy from israel to jerusalem -- >> but they like the saudisin he them with iran. >> and actually, that's really important, because n

jared kushner is supposed to be the crown prince whisperer, the guy that has his ear. you think that he would be the face of the administration's pressure campaign on the saudis. >> well, he's falling back. he's fading into the background, at least as far as we can tell publically, and that's intentional. he wants to step back because there is an understanding on his part and also within the white house that it would be damaging for it to be seen that jared kushner was back channelling with mbs on this situation. in the early days of this story, you know, one of the first things we learned was that the crown prince had actually called jared kushner to talk to him about this situation, to sort of pre-spin the saudi perspective on this. on the line was not just jared kushner, but the national security adviser john bolton, a sign early on in this administration that they understood it would be damaging for the saudis to believe that they could back channel their way out of this and that this was a very serious situation. at the same time, you know, people around kushner a

why has jared kushner worked so hard to cultivate this relationship?aw prince mohammed as a like-minded and generational peer and developed a relationship very early on in the trump presidency he thought would pay dividends to the united states. it was jared kushner that persuaded trump to make riyadh his first visit on foreign soil and he was feted have that military jet flyover, the sword dance and so forth and billions of dollars in promised arms deals. >> yes, over the objections of rex tillerson who of course was secretary of state at the time. >> and kushner i think also saw saudi arabia as a potential key partner in the middle east peace plan between it's really and the palestinians which kushner had been trying to champion. of course, a few months ago, king salman of saudi arabia said no, we're not going to sign on to that peace plan and it's since stalled out. but there was hope early on that saudi arabia would really offer some arab support to the kushner initiative. >> president trump on "60 minutes" was asked about jared kushner's phone cal

they see saudi arabia and its young crown prince who is very close to jared kushner, the president's son-in-law, as a linchpin in the strategy to counter iran and to bring about peace in the middle east and investment deals in terms of defense arms sales to saudi arabia. this is a key component of the administration's strategy. it's the first country president trump visited on a foreign trip last may when he arrived with a grand reception. the sword dance, the fighter jets streaking through the sky, the red carpet and so forth. president trump has been very careful. he doesn't want to criticize the sau saudis until he has conclusive evidence that they executed the u.s. resident journalist. and the evidence is coming in, and it looks like this is what happened, but the president seems perhaps unconvinced at this point or perhaps he's taking the advice of those around him to just tread carefully and be wary of making any broad pronouncements or declarations about saudi arabia at this hour. >> ambassador jordan, i heard you say something that stopped me in my tracks. we're grateful to y

nikki haley, there are, praising jared kushner. zettel jerk about who nikki haley's successor will be because the white house has already named who would they would like it to be and it is not going to be ivanka trump. stay with us for that. lots of storms around at the moment, the biggest one is the one that is hitting florida right now. there's never been a category four harry kane to make land fall in the florida panhandle before, —— a category four storm to hit the florida panhandle before. hurricane michael with a master hour winds, and the storm surge could be quite significant in a low—lying part of florida, the wall awards are pushing its way inland together with the damaging winds and heavy rain which we are seeing already. as the eye of the storm moves overland, it will tend to weaken and the wind will gradually drop by the rain keeps going for a while, the storm surge as well. moving quickly so we will see wet weather pushing into georgia and on thursday, into the carolinas, this is a different system to hurricane floren

jared kushner, an orthodox jew. >> reporter: that's right. and they were actually the ones who told the president on saturday after the first reports of this had happened had come out. they were the ones who encouraged the president to come and make a visit to pittsburgh, to come and show the community. and also, wolf, you'll see standing next to ivanka trump there is the treasury secretary, steven mnuchin. that is not someone we knew was coming, but he is here on this trip, also traveling is ron derm dermin and jason greenblatt. you can't ignore the backdrop here. this comes as some members of this community did not feel it was appropriate for the president to come and pay his respects at this time. one of the loudest voices of that and the staunchest voices that we have heard over the last few days was the mayor of pittsburgh, who said he didn't believe it was appropriate for the president. and wolf, we heard that echoed from a few people who were filtering through the street today, coming to pay their respects. sometimes members of this co

intelligence about targets for a forthcoming saudi purge that was then carried out a week after jared left saudi arabia. if jared was willing to provide intelligence to the saudi crown prince, i think we have reason at least to be suspicious of the possibility that the administration prohibited the intelligence community from fulfilling its solemn duty in this case. >> and jonathan, this is "the washington post" story. this is one of the people who works -- has a relationship with your newspaper, an opinion writer for your newspaper. what has "the post" been able to do? >> "the post" has been able to at least as an institution raise hell in all quarters where we can raise hell. whether it to the administration, the saudis, the turks, anyone who will listen. because -- >> and this is normally a thing where "the washington post" would have a receptive ear at the state department and at the white house. >> right. and in fact, you wouldn't have to demand that the president of the united states say something, that the administration would say something about not just the disappearance and

i think that this is -- this is one of those situations where, because of the way that jared leads, jaredt a megaphone leader, he's a cell phone leader. he doesn't try to broadcast his power, he doesn't try to get on television, he tries to form relationships with people. when it works out well, it works out well. the trade deals have worked out well. he bet on a person that has turned out to be a very bad guy. we'll have to see what happens going forward, does the relationship stay intact? do they choose somebody else to replace him? >> senator lindsay graham said over the weekend that the u.s. should end its relationship with the crown prince. >> i cannot do business with a current leadership, nbs, he's done to me. >> obviously this is one of the president's closest allies in the senate. quickly, what do you think the trump administration should do? >> that's not going to happen, from day one, this country has sacrificed values for relationships. we might censure or sanction the saudis, but ten years down the line, wie're still going to hav a relationship with him, you don't avoid it. >

but with jared and trump, it's completely an open door.with us, you can do anything with impunity the fact that they are not outraged about an american president killed in a consulate is extraordinary, crosses the line. >> why do you suspect he is playing dutch? we know they talked about abducting khashoggi. u.s. intelligence knows if the saudi government was out to get this washington "post" columnist. what is he up to here? >> if that's the case, and presume it is, let's looking he is not wanting to have culpability. one of the first jobs is to protect american citizens and residents. he left everybody down the fact that they might have known this in advance and not warned the saudis, not called mohammed bin salman. what itself the use of not having a personal relationship with someone and saying, hey, dude, you can't do this. >> this personal relationship is one sided. i mean, the saudis get whatever they want to get. all they have to do is flash a picture of donald trump up on a building when he comes to visit. mbs is nice to jared kus

jared kushner is a genius if you believe that israel has won and hing they want.y if you believe that, it is a wonderful policy. amy: on may 14, the israeli military massacred at least 61 unararmed palestiniansns and wod 270000 more for protestingng agt the israeli occupation and the opening of the new u.s. embassy in jerusalem. at the united nations, u.s. ambassador nikki haley blocked a call for an international investigigation into israel's actions. >> i asked my colleagues here in the security council, who among us would accept this type of activity on your border? no one would. no country in this chamber would act with more restraint than israel has. amy: since march 30, the beginning of the right of return israeli protests, soldiers and snipers have killed at least in the area of 190 five palestinians, wounded more than 18,000. your comments on what she performed at the united nations? that shottry on earth thousands of people on the other side of its border in a situation in which none of its own citizens were hurt -- one israeli soldier was killed -- would be free of condemnat
