now come i don't know jill stein. i know a environmentalist and probably a good woman but the lesson she has a russian asset.

you don't have to be for jill stein. i didn't vote for jill stein. she's willing as t.r. said to get into the arena while the rest of us are sitting on our cans? no, i respect that. if you're going to make that charge about her or in the case of congresswoman gabbard who wore the uniform for her country, you better bring the goods. that's not a bar conversation that hillary had. oh, my god, she's an asset. pour me another round. no, it was said with some deliberation and intention. i know, i listened to the podcast. give me another one if we have time. hrc exactly the embodiment of all that is wrong with established politics. she called a u.s. army officer a traitor. where is the outrage? hillary only proves that she can't come to grips that at best, she's a marginally better person than trump. she won the popular vote. she's had a long and distinguished career. i have great respect for secretary clinton. i just thought that was a cheap shot and it kind of demeans her legacy. you should have spent more time in wisconsin. give me another one if i have

environmentalist and green party candidate jill stein

they truly believe that jill stein is not on the scene anymore.abbard has been having these accusations against her for a long time. to us it sounds like crazy town conspiratorial. believe me, there is a lot of people who actually believe this. tulsi gabbard is going to have a press conference at 6:30 tonight. she will be able to be great, thank you, hillary clinton, for now making meet actual star of the week. primary between her and hillary by any means. and now, let me say i could take it all back if i found out that hillary clinton said it to keep the controversy going and her in the news for her book tour. >> jesse: oh. >> greg: she won the week though, you are right. the debate with a so boring. now we remember tulsi. >> jesse: that's right. >> jesse: do you think this is for book promotion? >> juan: no. i think it's very real. you look at the numbers. the reason this has been going around by the way is because tulsi gabbard has been supportive of people like assad and, you know, very open to putin. i mean, you can just look at the record. >

jill stein too.tein spent decades working as a position in boston before embarking on a second career as a left-wing activist. last cycle she ran the president that included a plant for the new deal, the normal list. according to harry, jill stein is also a russian agent. >> they have a bunch of sites and bots and other ways of supporting her so far. it's assuming jill stein will give it up which she might not because she's also a russian accent. she's a russian asset totally. >> tucker: stein is also a russian asset." she entails the gabbard are russian assets. some on the left are denying hillary clinton said that. she certainly did say. you just heard it in the tape is online and you can listen for yourself. and that she kept going. the president of the united states, hillary clinton explained, is being blackmailed by vladimir putin himself. >> donald trump is vladimir putin's dream. i don't know what putin has on him, whether it's personal and financial. i assume it is. >> tucker: in case you're

now come i don't know jill stein. i know a environmentalist and probably a good woman but the lesson she has a russian asset. i don't know tulsi gabbard but i know when think she is not an asset of russia. these people are sick. there was something wrong with them. >> sean: i want to show you this and we will put it up on the screen for people at home. ukrainian efforts to sabotage trump backfire. this was january 11, 2017. you were inaugurated. this article talks about how ukraine worked with hillary to influence the elections. they give chapter and verse how they did it. now, as the president, do you feel there was -- you spent two and half years with russian collusion and ignore the dossier in ukraine admitting that they helped hillary. >> president trump: the dossier was a disgrace. the dossier was totally fake. now it has been proven to be fake. people, you know how that was done. you have a track record now and you know as well as everybody they are doing an investigation, but i think before you do the investiga

he is again pushing jill stein.ill stein's numbers, if you look at it in those three critical states, is the difference between president trump and president clinton. >> i agree. so i think other than creating some squeamish questions for people like me on air and you know maybe just adding a little bit of fodder to the hillary versus some of the 2020 hopefuls, i don't think this is a big story. i don't think tulsi is going to be a big contender. >> it wasn't a big story until hillary clinton addressed it and made it about gabbard. >> i'd quarrel with big. i think it's a story. >> the president in this ongoing q and a in the cabinet room has just said that his being impeached is a foregone conclusion. we'll wait for that tape to arrive any moment. thank you both so very much. >>> coming up, the mitts are off. what's behind utah republican senator mitt romney's liberation from the party line as he becomes one of the president's most vocal critics? vocal critis day 23. i'm about to capture proof of the ivory billed wo

i'm not fan of either jill stein or tulsi gabbard but they have every right to be upset this morning at the smear, the drive by character assassination by former secretary of state. if she has evidence that they are russian assets she has an obligation to go the fbi and turn over that evidence now or make it available to the american people. jon: garrett tenney has that story. >> tulsi gabbard had a number of things to say to hilary clinton starting with this tweet where she calls clinton the queen of warmongers embodiment of corruption and personification of the rot that's sickened the democratic party for so long. that comes after the 2016 democratic nominee strongly seemed to suggest during a pod cast interview that gabbard who is a military veteran is a russian asset along with 2016 green party nominee jill stein. >> i think they have their eye on somebody who is currently in democratic primary and grooming her to be the third party candidate. she's a favorite of the russians. they have a bunch of sites and bots and other ways to have supporting her so far. and that's assuming ji

jill stein. that is where this e insanity comes from, the problem is that plays right into trump's hand, behind the narrative that trump is not insane who he says these people are coocoofor coco puffs, she win win -- he said, i told u so, when people oppose her, she accuses them forking wit for --g with the russian. kennedy: very obvious that something was going on, but hillary showed her hand, and opened playbook, she is a russian, and in a ar they are gg her like a child at neverland. >> she is like that person you use at a party to play a joke on your friends, they don't know, they say go up to her ask her about the election, your friends are stuck talking for 3 1/2 hours, tulsi served the country for 16 years, and hillary destroyed a server, not quite the same. i wanted to believe, i wanted to believe that this was mock veilian thing. but it boosts her relevance to get her past warren and bernie. if she was that smart she might have gone to wisconsin. in detroit, once in a while, it was not t

gabbard's name, which you pointed out, but i think we all are a maybe a little bit -- >> to say jill stein a russian asset is to say she was complicit in it. >> i think we are all in this trump era a little more frivolous with our language. >> maybe people are, but the former first lady. >> i know that it's plugged in, that people can hear it when we're doing it. mark, my other issue here is that i feel like hillary just elevated tulsi gabbard who's polling at 1%. made her sound like a real threat. >> she's desperate for press and she just got a ton of it thanks to the first lady. >> other than a couple squeamish questions for people like me and a quarter million dollars of fund-raising, i don't think this is a big deal for anybody really. >> well, let's talk when tulsi gabbard decides to run a third-party campaign. it's possible. i also wonder, doesn't hillary sound a little like trump here? >> that's the other thing i wanted to say. why not leave the conspiracy theories to trump land, you know. it just suggests that you're taking your eye off the ball strategically. >> and for her reputa

i mean totally. >> joel payne, is jill stein a russian asset?t's an awfully rough charge on tulsi gabbard. >> i think we're all throwing around the term "asset" a little too freely. there is a belief that jill stein was leveraged last cycle to work against the interests of hillary clinton and to work towards the interests of the russians and to president trump. that's actually a pretty well acknowledged theory out there. so that's more what she was talking about. less about tulsi gabbard and more about the fact that the russians have an interest in the election. >> tulsi gabbard responded. she just gave tulsi gabbard oxygen that a candidate like tulsi gabbard desperately needs. thank you, hillary clinton. you, the queen of waur mongers and personification of the rot that has sickened the democratic party for so long have finally come out from behind the curtain. from the day i announced my candidacy, there's been a concerted campaign to destroy my reputation. we always wondered who it was and now we know it was you. wow, afraid of the threat i p

as for jill stein, clinton and her allies blame the former green party candidate for their loss in 2016 stein said clinton is still blaming everyone but herself for losing to donald trump. >> i think this is a completely unhinged conspiracy theory for which there is absolutely no basis. in fact, not for myself and not for tulsi gabbard. i think it's really outrageous that hilary clinton is trying to promote this crazy idea. leland: clinton appears to have also missed a couple of important details with this theory about stein and gabbard as third party candidates because jill stein isn't running in 2020 and gabbard has repeatedly said she will not run as a third party candidate, if she doesn't win the democratic nomination. >> she's certainly fund raising off of this. i don't think we have heard the end of this, huh? >> not at all. leland: garrett, thanks. >> you got it. molly: also we are waiting to hear from presidential candidate bernie sanders at a rally in new york, up next. ah! come on! let's hide in the attic. no. in the basement. why can't we just get in the running car? are you

and that jill stein is a russian agent.said that earlier, because people would've realized she is crazy. she is crazy. >> harris: judy miller, fellow at the manhattan institute dan heninger, deputy editor of "the wall street journal" editorial page. both fox news contributor's. what is happening with clinton going after tulsi gabbard? >> that is a great question. she is at the bottom -- >> harris: this may help her in terms of name recognition. >> why is hillary bringing up the tinfoil hat stuff about somebody who is so far down in the running? it is like when hillary said deplorables. she thinks she does the stuff that is politically astute, but it is politically obtuse. it is destructive. now you have a lot of democrats like bernie sanders quickly trying to put distance between her and this comment. >> harris: i would imagine that bernie sanders has a little bit of salt in the room from the last time hillary clinton moving forward without him. >> because tulsi endorsed him during the 2016 campaign coming in hillary never

and it drives a wedge within the democratic party that we saw over 1 million votes to jill stein in 2016ich there were a number of reasons that we lost the election, but you can point to jill stein's vote share in the three states that president trump took to swing the election as being due to the impact of jill stein. >> julie: the president is saying that hillary clinton is basically calling every candidate a russian asset, what is her mo there? she is calling everybody a russian asset. you are a russian asset. so nobody can avoid -- i guess i am a russian asset. >> jill stein is a russian ass asset, hillary clinton has lost it, she sees them in her dreams and behind her lamp posts. she cannot accept that she lost the 2016 election. that's what this is about. but what an insult to the democratic party, and tulsi gabbard who is working hard to get the nomination and has to deal with hillary clinton calling her a russian, false defamatory conspiracy theories out of jill stein herself. >> julie: we have to go, jessica tarlov, thank you very much. kayleigh mcenany, we have another topic we

and that's assuming jill stein will give it up, which she might not because she is also a russian asset. >> the obama era u.n. ambassador 2016 election was won by 78,000 votes spread among three states absent third party candidates hillary clinton would have won and donald trump would not be now harming americans and our friends and aiding autocrats. if tulsi gabbard runs, it would be a huge windfall for trump, assad, putin and xi. and to add blood between gabbard and clinton may date back to the 2016 cycle when gabbard resigned as one of the vice chairs of the dnc to endorse bernie sanders. gabbard has a very sharp response on twitter. she wrote this great, thank you, hillary clinton, you, the queen of warmongers embodiment of corruption, and personification of the rot that has sickened the democratic party for so long have finally come out from behind the curtain, from the day i announced my candidacy there has been a concerted campaign to destroy my reputation. we wondered who was behind it and why. now we know it was always you. through your proxies and powerful allies in the corpor

. >> jill stein voters, she had a few million in 1 1/2% changed their vote we would not be sitting herethis conversation, we would talk about donald trump running for a second try against hillary clinton. if people are voting a protest vote they change the election, not whether gary johnson has a right to run or jill stein, there is a different, jill stein and tulsi gabbard now, they have very few critical things to say about russia. tulsi gabbard said mor mortarrie -- terrible things and more names about hillary clinton in thein 3tweets her entire life tn assad. kennedy: because she is -- >> me met him. kennedy: many in antiwar movement is that -- that -- >> major party establishment candidate like hillary clinton, you could throw mitt romney, donald trump, ven barack obama to that mix. they are very much for regime change, not preserving life and freedom. >> there no ideology has a problem calling someone who using chemical weapons again children a terrible person. kennedy: i guess they are useful idiots. they have a set of principles they rely on and are guided by, instead of talking

russians were behind jill stein.ithout having the guts to name tulsi, everyone know she is referring to her. >> she has been an outspoken candidate. she took to tucker where she often a peered, last night -- aa appeared, last night and she blasted back. >> this is about hillary clinton sending a strong message saying that because i am and have long been calling for an end to our country's foreign policy of waging one regime change war after the next, ultimately she knows she can't control me, that i stand for -- i stand against everything that she represents. and that if i'm elected president, if i'm the democratic nominee and elected president, she won't be able to control me, won't be able to manipulate me. this is a race between hillary cline phoclinton and myself ands will be given a clear choice of hillary clinton and all that she represents. >> gabbard was a top official at the dnc, the vice chair and ended up resigning and endorsed bernie sanders. >> bernie sanders. >> there's history here. >> looks like someb

. >> that's jill stein. it's the-- the next election cycle is jill stein. >> but his name is bill weld. >> but, i mean, you could put lipstick on a pig. it's still a pig. >> shut the ( bleep ) up. ( laughter ) ( applause ) i just need to show them that weld's policies are the flavor they're looking for, even if it takes all day. he's fiscally conservative, never been bankrupt. doesn't tweet at 3:00 in the morning. probably watched "jeopardy!" he's in bed at 6:40. hand-off approach to markets and-- and a hands-off approach to grabbing women's genitals. bill weld says that the government should never be able to stop you from holding a gun or another man's penis in your hand if you're married and gay. show of hands if you're with him. oh! looks like trump voters are thirsty for change. now, based on everything that we've discussed today, stand up if you would consider voting for bill weld. ( laughter ) now, stand up now. when i say stand up. damn! so no weld? i hope that doesn't mean what i think it means. how

jill stein was promoted by pro-russian outlets and bots. let's not forget she was there clapping it up with putin at the propaganda dinner along with michael flynn. so you have to ask yourself why are pro-russian outlets and pro-russian bots and turker carlson by the way loving tulsi gabbard. and it could be because they want to see her as a spoiler candidate. and in august on cnn, she said she's open to considering a run as a third party candidate. i think she will. >> okay. hold on. she's ruled that out. and this is guilt by association. you remember when the right tried to do this to barack obama with reverend wright et cetera et cetera. and because you're in a room with these people, you must believe their views. because they support you, that means you're out of bounds. it's a smear. nobody has been more helpful to russia than all the people who pushed the iraq war. okay? to include hillary clinton. so does that make her a russian plant? no. of course not. we can't run around saying because this person supports you, because we don't li

at the top of the hour, jill stein will be a guest to talk o about this. >>> julia, good morning. >>ng, victor. >> so secretary clinton did not name congresswoman gabbard, but when her campaign -- rather spokesman for the former secretary was asked if that's who she was talking about, the response was, quote, if the nesting doll fits. this narrative is not new. gabbard seems to think that this attacks works for her. does it? does it elevate her? >> well, it works for gabbard's base at this point. remember, gabbard has attracted a very fringe section of the democratic party or anti-establishment section of the democratic party as well as anti-establishment voters in general. she seems to be quite popular with conservative voters as well, gaining a lot of traction among them online. it certainly helps them with that anti-establishment part of the party that probably isn't too thrilled with hillary clinton, wasn't thrilled with hillary clinton in 2016. however, going into 2020 i'm not sure if this really bodes well for gabbard. remember, last tuesday during the democratic debate in ohio

jill stein, i don't know, she hung out with putin. trump immediately defended jill stein. i was struck by that. maybe hillary clinton should have been a little more careful. i think it was an off-the-cuff remark. i don't think it changes anything. but the bringing together of syria shows the real world consequences of having donald trump as president and having him liberated, really. there's no jim mattis. there's no -- none of the senior people who were there in the first couple years whom republicans could tell themselves, you know, trump is a little wacky. he wants to do illegal things, but don mcgahn stops him and jeff sessions stops him. no one stops him. so syria shows the real-world consequences of trump unleashed here at the end of a thousand days of his presidency. doral shows the incredible brazenness of the corruption. and ukraine shows genuinely, i think, illegitimate use of u.s. foreign policy for plolitical ends. >> s.e., final thought? >> the hillary/stein/tulsi thing is so bizarre. for hillary's part, so unwise. i don't think she needs to make these outland

gabbard clinton claims is the success roar to jill stein as the russian spoiler candidate.tein of being you a russian asset, suggesting russia needs a third party candidate to influence u.s. elections. but i'm sorry, mrs. clinton, but there was and the single state that would have swung in your favor in 2016 if you added stein's totals. president trump has a far better case and claim against spoiler candidates like the third party candidates he ran against. if you were to add the vote totals of president trump's third party candidates, president trump would have won five additional states, nevada, maine, new hampshire and new mexico. if the president won those states he would have won 29 additional electoral votes. sorry, mrs. clinton. it doesn't add up. we should note, mcmullin is a former cia operator. so the conspiracy theorists have a readily available connection between coul today the charactea and the democratic candidates. the mystery continues. up next, president trump's historic lead in fundraising beginning to rattle the radical left as it should. stay with us. eÑ

that's assuming jill stein will gift up. but she is also a russian asset.hey can't win without a third party candidate. trish: again, nobody wanted to criticize that? >> joining me now, with welcome back. how come nobody was upset about that? >> they were. congresswoman gabbard was upset and her supporters were and a number of the other candidates running for president said hillary shouldn't have said that. but what the difference is. lieutenant col nel vindman is not a combatant. he's still in uniform. he's nonpartisan. tulsi gabbard is running for president. part of what hillary was saying wasn't to pick on congresswoman gab regard. it's to say what we have been saying, we have a problem next year. everyone watching now who want her to stop talking about it, she is not doing it for herself. she knows if we continue on this track, about people meddling in our election. that's fundamentally what she was saying about miss gabbard and miss stein. that was established that jill stein did in fact receive support from russia. that's not nine or the clintons or d

. >> she came out after jill stein, and you know something is up when the president then defends jill stein and tulsi gabbard. what do you think is going on here? >> look, every day she wakes up knowing she lost to donald trump. that's not an easy thing for her to carry. i think that's a very painful thing. i think it shapes her view of the world. i think the russian interference shapes her view of the world. so i think it's not easy for her to kind of let go of the very raw feelings from that loss. and from a human level, you can understand why. >> also she's on book tour, and people are asking her for comment wherever she goes. >> yeah. but i would say i think that's exactly right. but she is freer now than, say, she was as a candidate. she was an extremely cautious candidate, and now the way that she talks about tulsi gabbard and sort of the jokey personality on twitter is very different from what we saw when she was running for office. >> come by anytime. >> i will do that. >> great pleasure to have you. great to see you. carolyn ryan of "the new york times". >>> coming up, presid

hillary clinton compared her to jill stein. she could very well decide because she's definitely not going to win the democratic nomination, she could decide afterwards that it was rigged, and she could pull a trump and decide she's going to run for office regardless. >> i'm trying to have a hard time trying to figure out some conspiracy theory behind hillary clinton, you know, who is one of the most successful women in politics, and for tulsi gabbard, she is a sitting congresswoman. >> hillary clinton got 66 million votes for president of the united states. it's not a smart move for any democratic candidate for president to go attacking her while you're running for the party nomination. >> yeah. steve, let's bring you in now. we won't hog the conversation anymore. at the debate, tulsi gabbard talked about a regime-change war in syria, which critics and some experts called a kremlin talking point. she faced criticism for meeting with assad and refusing to call him a war criminal and we've seen reporting from "the new york times"

former secretary of state hillary clinton also accused former green party candidate, jill stein, of being russian asset. hear how she is responding, next. here, it all starts with a simple... hello! -hi! how can i help? a data plan for everyone. everyone? everyone. let's send to everyone!

i wish you had said that earlier because people realize she's crazy. >> jill stein with the green partyidate in 2012 and 2016 but tulsi gabbard says hillary is getting help smearing her. last week's new york times cnn primary debate gabbard called out the times and cnn for waiting what she called a propaganda campaign against her including a journalist calling her an asset of russia. cnn political analyst van jones used airtime on cnn to go after hillary clinton. >> she's a legend, she's in the history books, former nominee of our party and she came out against a sitting us congressman, decorated war veteran and someone running for the nomination of our party, a complete smear and no facts. >> reporter: tulsi gabbard vowed she would not run as a third-party candidate, something hillary clinton imply. gabbard said she would commit for voting for the ultimate democratic party nominee. >> thank you. breaking news next on house until chairman adam schiff that first the real news roundup, washington examiner reporting on joe biden's son hunter and why he was appointed to the board of amtrak.

secretary clinton also brought up the green party candidate, jill stein, seen here at an event in russiain 2017 stein was the subject of the senate intel committee's investigation into russian collusion into the 2016 election. garrett tenney has more now from washington. garrett? >> reporter: tulsi gabbard had a number of things to say to hillary clinton starting with this tweet where she calls clinton the queen of warmongers, embodiment of corruption and personification of the rot that has sickened the democratic party for so long. that comes after the 2016 democratic nominee strongly seemed to suggest during a podcast interview that gabbard is a russian asset along with 2016 green party nominee joe stipe. >> i think they've got their eye on somebody who's currently in the democratic primary, and they're groom her to be a third-party candidate. she's a favorite of the russians. they have a bunch of sites and bots and other ways of supporting her so far, and that's assuming jill stein will give it up, which she might not, because she's also a russian asset. >> reporter: it's important to

she thinks jill stein hurt her in key states.abbard is a little bit out of the democratic norm when it comes to syrian foreign policy. we both covered the 2016 campaign. this is certainly throw caution to the wind that we didn't see in the campaign. she thinks this election is so important and is going to make statements like this and on a book tour and asked about them. >> she's upset, she's sounding an alarm, all these things. >>> the president's defense secreta -- former defense secretary says he won't be candid but then he mocks him. >>> it's a pattern. we know the president likes to make comments and then backtrack as he tries to solve it. stick around. aetna takes a total approach to your health and wellness with medicare advantage plans designed for the whole you. and monthly premiums starting at $0. plus hospital, medical and prescription drug coverage in one simple plan. and health coaching and fitness memberships to help you age actively. so you can be ready for what matters most. call today. we'll send you a $10 visa r

that's assuming jill stein will give it up, which she may not because she is also a russian asset.ve: what hillary is doing on that podcast where david plouffe on friday. accused jill stein the 2016 green party candidate for president who some say split the vote, and damaged hillary a bit. she is accusing her of being a russian asset, essentially is. she is talking about somebody else. she does not specifically name tulsi gabbard. she said she's the favorite of the russians. kamala harris is running, elizabeth warren, amy klobuchar, marianne williamson. here's the thing. tulsi gabbard knows, feels in her heart that ever since 2016, when she was the dnc vice chair and she went against the party hierarchy to support bernie sanders instead of hillary clinton, hillary has had it out for her. ainsley: they were grooming her. she was goldible child of the d rng. then she dropped ow she wasn't happy with what was happening in the dnc and she supports bernie. she says hillary hasn't forgotten it. and that's why she is saying she is in bed with the russians. listen to what her video. this i

jill stein, she also said that jill stein is a russian asset or at least was. >> no, i am not a russiani think this is a completely unhinged conspiracy theory. i think it's really outrageous that hillary clinton is trying to promote this crazy idea. you can't just slander people. you have to present some basis in fact. >> i just think it's great that the accusation is now that hillary clinton is the vast left wing conspiracy that sort of echos what she used to say in reverse. and i think it does open a kind of wound in the contract party, this sort of kind of fight that there are legitimate and substantive reasons, philosophical reasons that are differences between these two parts of the party. but having one of these sfatspas never good. >> whether you like her or not. hillary clinton decides what she wants to talk about. she wanted to do this. >> she did want to do this and she doesn't want to fade quietly into the wings. this is yet another example of how we have never been able to have a conversation about russian interference in this country that is separated from the politics and

defends jill stein and tulsi gabbard. do you think is going on here? >> look, every day she wakes up knowing she lost to donald trump. that's not an easy thing for her to carry. i think that's a very painful thing. i think it shapes her view of the world. i think the russian interference shapes her view of the world. so i think it's not easy for her to kind of let go of the very raw feelings from that loss. from a human level, you can understand why. >> also, she's on book tour and people are asking her for comment wherever she goes? >> i think that's exactly right, but she is freer now than say she was as a candidate. she was an extremely cautious candidate, and now the way she talks about tulsi gabbard and the jokey personality is different than when she ran for office. >> come by anytime. great to see you carolyn ryan of "the new york times." >>> coming up, president trump says our relationship with the kurds is good. so we have that going for us. that might just ignore, however, what we're seeing from the kurds on the
