kirsen and all the pictures of him with jared kushner, they're all back in the news today. even though trump just pardoned this guy a few months ago today jared kushner's friend, ken kirsen, found himself in handcuffs in a courtroom. because state prosecutors brought state felony charges against him for allegedly cyber stalking and harassing his ex-wife. the behavior described against him in indictment today in new york was behavior alluded to in his federal charging documents, actually in a footnote. but now that alleged conduct is being charged in state court where trump's federal pardon is going to do this guy no good. he's facing possibility of if you years in state prison if he's convicted. the new york prosecutor, the district attorney in manhattan who brought the charges against him today is the same new york prosecutor who recently brought criminal charges against trump's business and trump's business' cfo allen weisselberg. today that prosecutor said this about his decision to bring state charges against ken kirsen despite the federal pardon kirsen got from trump.

it's kind of personified here by jared kushner and greg pascal.r was the businessman that trump idealizes and brad, pop culture marketing advertiser who wants to -- branding and salesmanship and sees the energy in that and in some ways that should never have been been running a reelection campaign in 2020, but on the other hand, he was sort of the perfect guy for trump. trump is such an unusual candidate here and gives the job to brad and brad builds 2 million-dollar advertising firm for trump but in the final days trump, you know, gets rid of him effectively and puts in charge who is more of an accountant and deepen the weeds and wants to shrink costs and start canceling, you know, lunch for the campaign trying to save money which, you know, confused people and -- and effectively builds their polling operation with just months to go and still with no real message or focus from -- from trump on what this campaign is supposed to be. .. .. the way i sort of address that is after tulsa, the one rally where the nation does not show up for him. it is k

he gets swept up in this sort of backstabbing with gary cohn and jared kushner and totally doesn't solve in a couple of different times. >> i guess connected to this but just briefly, mike, why was the incumbent president donald trump's reelection campaign such a huge, meaningless shambles? why did they never, i mean, as i read the book they found it impossible to articulate, to put into words what they were standing for and what they wanted more of, what they wanted to continue. it seemed to me the people around trump, and trump, had so much trouble grappling with the meaning of this historical venture on which they were embarked and had been for four years. they didn't know right until the end what they were campaigning on and four, beyond donald trump, and let's all continue to have jobs and be enjoying ourselves. i was just kind of shocked at what a shambles that campaign seem to be. were you? >> yes, 100%. it should have been firing on all cylinders by the end and was far from it. they were rebuilding the camping and a lot of ways in the final days. probably, the big problem is that

these state criminal charges today i'm sure were a shock to the jared kushner part of trump's orbit.re deeply deeply unsettling for steve bannon. what do you think? watch this space. >> tech: every customer has their own safelite story. this couple was on a camping trip... ...when their windshield got a chip. they drove to safelite for a same-day repair. and with their insurance, it was no cost to them. >> woman: really? >> tech: that's service you can trust. >> singers: ♪ safelite repair, safelite replace. ♪ introducing xfinity rewards. our very own way of thanking you just for being with us. enjoy rewards like movie night specials. xfinity mobile benefits. ...and exclusive experiences, like the chance to win tickets to see watch what happens live. hey! it's me. the longer you've been with us... the more rewards you can get. like sharpening your cooking skills with a top chef. join for free on the xfinity app and watch all the rewards float in. our thanks. your rewards. >> that's gonna do it for us tonight, i'm sorry for falling apart at the end of the a block tonight. but it was un

melania trump as well as the former president's three oldest children there and his son-in-law jared kushnerdemanding specifics from what unfolded inside the white house that day january 6th. they want all of the white house visitor logs, the records of the movements of the former president, and communications from the situation room that day. plus, any information pertaining to trump's mental health and any efforts to use the insurrection act to stop the transfer of power to now president joe biden. so the committee wants all of this, plus any details on discussions that occurred between cabinet officials ranging from election day 2020 through the inauguration about possibly invoking the twenty-fifth amendment to remove trump from office. so, jake, the committee is asking for a lot of documents from the archives. this could be subject to executive privilege, and the committee is asking for all of it within the next two weeks by september 9th. jake? >> all right, jessica schneider, thanks so much. let's discuss. i'd love to see those documents, too.

president's inner circle, including the former first lady, trump's three oldest children, his son-in-law jared kushnernd other top aides. trump released a statement last night saying his executive privilege will be defended. a militia member from michigan will spend more than six years in prison for plotting to kidnap the governor. ty garbin is the first opinions sentenced in connection with last year's plot. six men were charged in the scheme to kidnap the governor claiming they were angry about her coronavirus restrictions. tore suspects are scheduled to go on trial in october. >>> time now for a look at your thursday morning weather. hore s go on trial in october. >>> time now for a look at your thursday morning weather. eore so go on trial in october. >>> time now for a look at your thursday morning weather. ore s to go on trial in october. >>> time now for a look at your thursday morning weather. ore su to go on trial in october. >>> time now for a look at your thursday morning weather. tore sd to go on trial in october. >>> time now for a look at your thursday morning weather. hore s scheduled t

. >> chief among those frustrated were jared kushner and ivanka cut trump the president's daughter, did their status at all changed during the period you're right about from the election through the inauguration? did their influence with the president change? >> their influence has always remained basically stable because they understood the limits of their influence. more than any people in the white house they could have influence. but that always came up against the barrier of a president who does not listen to anyone, be cannot really be reasoned in any reasonable sense. loses the thread of the conversation in short order. it all goes to say you can influence him about things he did not care about. or things he was not going to remember. there is something that he wanted like the election when you had to steer clear. gerrit and ivanka most certainly by a week be on the election of new they could have no effect until absent themselves from any involvement with the election challenge for. >> one of the things you write in particular about that, you right after charlottesville somethin

i wrote my book about jared kushner and ivanka trump that there were moments the bureaucracy of government. they didn't stop him from his impulses but there was debates from people like mattis and rex tillerson. they slowed him down. it was the equivalent of the seven-second delay. now there is no barriers, not just between trump and crazy and authoritarian, trump running the republican party, running these states like he was running his family real estate office in new york. it is really worrying. >> yes, that goes to just how wide this support could be. professor, trump was basically late to a plot that we are now seeing more evidence of that had he hit it a little bit earlier where part of his mechanism was lying on lie and formenting final ralrallies. what he could have a duo outcome. walk us through how the constitution even affords that to be technically possible or whether you see a real warning shot in future elections? >> he was early to the party. he was talking about locking her up, hillary clinton in 2016 before he was even elected. so he's done so many things and hard to remem

eight federal agencies covers records involving melania trump, donald jr., eric and ivanka trump, jared kushner, mark meadows, hope hicks, stephen miller, and kayleigh mcenany, among others. investigators are focused on whether trump wanted to use the military to remain in power and whether administration officials considered invoking the 25th amendment to remove trump during his final weeks in office. in michigan, a federal judge has disciplined nine pro-trump attorneys, including sidney powell and lin wood, over their unsubstantiated claims in a lawsuit falsely claiming that the 2020 election was stolen. the lawyers will have to pay the legal fees for the city of detroit and other defendants, and they face sanctions that could lead to their disbarment. also in michigan, 25-year-old ty garbin was sentenced wednesday to six years in prison for his role in plotting to kidnap michigan democratic governor gretchen whitmer last year. garbin was the first of 14 men arrested over the plot to be sentenced and received a reduced penalty after he agreed to cooperate with federal investigators. a u.s. ap

and also jared kushner who was special adviser. specifics from what unfolded inside the white house that day january 6. they want all of the white house visitor logs, records of the movements of trump and communications from the situation room that day. plus any information relating to trump meantal health and possibly any efforts to use the insurrection act to stop the transfer of power to now president biden. plus the committee wants details on any discussions that might have occurred between cabinet officials ranging from election day 2020 through the inauguration about those officials possibly invoking the 25th amendment to remove trump from office. so it is a wide ranging set of requests. and the committee is asking for all of this within two weeks by september 9. but it is unclear if they will get it all. president biden could assert executive privilege even over the trump white house documents, that could avoid any dangerous precedent of handing over wide ranging information or of course trump could challenge the request in

and communications related to members of the trump family including melania trump, ivanka trump, jared kushner, eric trump and the former guy's oldest son and namesake donald trump, jr. you remember he said this about lawmakers who were just about to vote on january 6th to certify joe biden's electoral college victory right before crowds of violent trump supporters marched on capitol. here it is. >> you can be a hero or you can be a zero. and the choice is yours, but we are all watching. the whole world is watching, folks. choose wisely. >> who's he talking about there? you can be a hero or you can be a zero. choose wisely. sorry. sorry. the committee also looking for records from election deniers like rudy giuliani. >> let's have trial by combat. >> and looking for evidence of the former guy's pressure campaign to overturn election results in georgia. >> so, look, all i want to do is this. i just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have, because we won the state. with those last few sound bites it should be like circus music or loony tunes music, and we lived through that. ca

they wrote that when andrew cuomo called the white house desperate for supplies, donald trump jared kushner who had taken a key role said and i quote, cuomo didn't pound the phones hardened of to get ppe for his state, his people are going to suffer and that's their problem. another vanity fair piece highlighted how the trump white house saw covid as a strictly blue state problem. quote, most troubling about perhaps was a sentiment the experts said a member of kushner's team express, that because the virus had hit blue states hardest, a national plan was unnecessary and would not make sense politically. the political folks believe that because it was going to be relegated to democratic states, that they could blame those governors and that would be an effective political strategy. shameful. truly shameful. and yet right now, we have exactly the reverse situation. we have all of these red states in dire need of help, and a blue president eager to help them. >> i say to these governors, please help. but if you're not gonna help, at least get out of the way. people are trying to do the right t

jared kushner. the house, mccarthy and jim jordan both admitted talked that they had conversations with donald trump on that day. also, we know the committee is going to go out and get phone records, key communications and bringing me back to my prosecutor days. this is what a sample phone record from verizon will look like. it will tell you what number is making the call. what number is receiving the call exactly what date and to the second what time that call was made and finally over here how many seconds long that call was. so this is going to tell you who was in touch with who in those key moments leading up to and during and after the attack. finally, we know that there have been very broad requests for all these federal agencies. the one that's really interesting to me is the national archives. you may be thinking, why the national archives? that's where the parchment copy of the declaration of independence are. they have the trump white house records. >> so executive privilege, former presid

. >> these are not all jared kushner slumlord types. out the door. >> this was handed over by congress and the federal government to states and local municipalities to dole out. what that means is each individual governor is responsible for establishing these programs. i think that in some states governors and state administrations might be slow walking this process to get it out. in other states the administrative burden of setting it up. but there are states and municipalities that have been getting it right and we are at a point where frankly those state governments need to get it together but we cannot kick people out of their homes when our end of the bargain has not been fulfilled. out of the 46 billion that has been allocated, only 3 billion has gone out to help renters and small mom and pop landlords. >> it's crazy. you just heard joe manchin a few moments ago talk about the reconciliation bill, $3.5 trillion. he said he can't give him any guarantee it would pass the senate. what's your response to that? >> these deals on infras
