malcolm nance, thank you very much for joining us tonight.iate it. >> my pleasure. >>> up next, a last word about what president trump says about african countries. for my constipation, my doctor recommended i switch to miralax. stimulant laxatives make your body go by forcefully stimulating the nerves in your colon. miralax is different. it works with the water in your body to hydrate and soften. unblocking your system naturally. miralax. a little to the left. 1, 2, 3, push! easy! easy! easy!

joining me, malcolm nance, u.s. eteran for over 30 years and terrorism analyst, and naveed jamal, an msnbc contributor and double agent. malcolm, let me get your sense of what the house intelligence committee is likely to hear or whants to hear from this witness when he testifies on tuesday. >> well, that depends entirely on which side of the house is asking the questions. on the republican side, we've seen the house side is not as credible as the senate intelligence committee because they appear to be trying to provide cover for the president. you know, the chairman of the committee, devin nunes himself, said he recused himself from this committee but has been actively participating in trying to muddy the waters. the house democrats, on the other hand, they are really going to have the knives sharpened to try to create a circumstance where the information they get in their testimony can be used by the mueller investigation to see if anyone is carrying out perjury. >> let me get your sense of what's happened to bipar

you take a guy like malcolm nance, a 35-year veteran of counterterrorism, get him started on vladimir putin. >> he views kgb officers as the new nobility of russia. they are the pinnacle of russian society. he uses them on a daily basis. >> used to be kgb. now fsb. they sound like savings and loans institutions. they are decidedly not. this guy is a trained spy. >> they can both find you. >> he would argue he's a trained killer. >> he messed with us. the only part of the story that doesn't satisfy a majority of americans is that trump isn't mad about it. there was some incredible reporting in "the washington post" about how the obama administration knew that the russians were meddling. they didn't do anything. someone described it as we choked. but the putin story could have ended on election day if donald trump said, i won fair and square, but i'm going to make sure that putin stays out of our democracy. >> i am puzzled by why our president isn't getting our defenses up so that we don't get hacked in another election. we've got all of congress coming up just next year. then two years

ben hopkins, and malcolm nance, msnbc terrorism analyst. also author of "the plot to hack america, how putin's cyberspies and wikileaks tried to steal the 2016 election." i'm going to go to you first, malcolm, as you heard jeff sessions. is he right? is this so complex that the u.s. is barely scratching the surface of this meddling? >> no, the issue is not complex at all. the issue is that social media has been weaponized in order to influence entire electorates by foreign actors. we got more than enough warning by the central intelligence agency, the director of national intelligence last year. if countermeasures were starting to be implemented, but as of january 20th of last year, president trump who doesn't believe in any of it, immediately knocked down all of these things. most states do not want to implement or are not implementing social media or counterhacking protocols because for the most part, they don't believe it. >> so then you have answered the third of three questions i think it takes to approach this, malcolm. the first being

malcolm, thank you for that, malcolm nance who has served our country's services in light of president trump's comments. we're honoring another monumental american now. private first classey manuel mensa. >> he emigrated to the bronx from gone a just five years ago and was a member of the national guard. two weeks ago he repeatedly ran into a burning apartment building and rescued four people. but he was killed in the fire. he was only 28 years old. private mensah will receive a medal of valor from the army for his heroic efforts. >> let's think about that one. thank you for watching this hour of msnbc live. i'll be back at 3:0 p.m. >> i'm stephanie ruhle. i'll see you tomorrow at 12:30 and we hand you over to "andrea mitchell reports" with andrea mitchell. >>> this is not a day for business as usual. the president has repeatedly said racist and abhoric comments. this was confirmed by a senator in the room and those present in the oval office. a warning to all of you, especially those who have children watching or listening, i'm going to say this once to be clear about just what we are

joining me now paul butler and malcolm nance. thank you for being here.ur commthree commit received testimony by these fusion gps heads. >> why did you decide to do that? >> because i think people are entitled to know what was said and the lawyers also wanted it released. i see no problem with releasing it. >> senator grassly says you've jeopardized their ability to get certain witnesses like kushner. your reaction? >> i don't think so. that's been difficult in any event. >> is diane feinstein right, that there was nothing preventing this information from being released and it does not prevent the committees from receiving further testimony? >> absolutely. it has nothing to do with kushner. mueller or the congress can subpoena him and make him talk. when there's a movie made about this, there's going to be this dramatic scene where we see steele doing routine opposition research and he comes across information that's so troubling that he thinks the man who was the next president of the united states is subject to blackmail. he goes to his boss and tells h

joining me is malcolm nance, sarah kendzior and scott dworkin.scott, nunes briefed the trump campaign on intelligence matters, he was on the transition team and he fielded calls from foreign leaders trying to reach michael flynn, so it's possible that nunes's conversations were recorded. how is it that he now gets access to all of these documents with which he can pursue his investigation of fusion gps? >> trump opens up the door for corruption. so it becomes more normalized. even though this is not normal. it's tough to believe that somebody like speaker ryan, who i used to have respect for, would step out and defend nunes when he came out and said nunes said he would recuse thihimself and now it turns out he's a liar. i used to trust him thachlhim. that trust no longer exists. i'm not sure where we will find a patriot within the party, i'm not sure any are left. it's terrifying to see somebody like paul ryan step out and go against our justice system and side with a traitor like devin nunes. it's unbelievable at this point. >> malcolm, this is
