matthew: it depends. what a country like china has done, has done a lot to regulate the way that content flows in and out of their borders. that has come at a great cost to them because the performance of the internet inside the country is not nearly what you would see in the united states or western with aor other countries level of internet use you have. you have four exit points from china and all of those have to pass through infrastructure, all of which creates a bottleneck and a chokepoint. if you talk in china to engineers who are trying to develop new technology and new code, one of the things i have , often times, a longing for access to tools like google and otherwise. not to get what would be politically controversial content, but to find code samples or answers to problems to solve those different -- to solve whatever technical problem they want to be solving. the more you restrict access to information, increasingly that comes at a cost to the ability to be creative and develop solutions. tha

you're on with chris matthews. make your comment or ask your question. >> caller: chris, long, long-time fan. you've been doing a great, great job. i was just thinking about your words about when politics works. have you think about telling people a, this is the road map to what we could get to with this whole situation that is going on right now? i'm sorry, i'm not plugging in your -- >> no, i know what you mean. i always write my books in the end when i get to actually writing g them, i research for e facts. but when it comes to crafting the book, i mean i know what i'm doing. i basically am talking about what we lack today, it is not just trump. what we lack in terms of empathy for people in trouble with this country, where a leader actually seems to care. a leader in either party who actually wants to unite people. it is easy to play one side or the other with racial fight, class fight, pick a side. dump on the other side. say how great your side is. make the fight worse, more ferocious. the third thing i think

at the time, matthews received a formal reprimand. panthers owner jerry richardson says he's selling the team. this comes as an investigation into allegations of workplace misconduct against him heats up. one person already putting in a bid is diddy. the music mogul went on social media to make his plea -- promising if he becomes the owner- he'll sign colin kaepernick, have the best halftime shows, and win multiple super bowls. n-b-a star and panthers fan steph curry tweeted that he wants to join diddy's deal. some activists plan to rally this morning outside the centers for disease control's d.c. office. they say they want to show their scientists who are being censored. a washington post article friday said the trump administration recently banned seven words and phrases. they include "vulnerable," "entitlement," "diversity," "transgender," "fetus," "evidence-based" and "science-based." at 8:20 a.m., the protesters plan to defy the administration by shouting those words and phrases. is the truth out there?? apparently the pentagon h

brian: matthew was asking about amtrak. there was a budget request as i understand from the president for $630 million in deduction for the amtrak route. do you plan on revisiting that issue? on matthew peterson, the three that were turned down as i understand it was they had close ties to the process. finally -- sec. sanders: let me do one at a time because i am not going to answer those questions. the first one was on judicial nominees? brian: the first one was on amtrak. sec. sanders: oh. as i told matthew, we will wait until the investigation is complete. we will talk about next steps when that is done. in terms of the judicial nominees, i have walked through that a couple of times now. we have nominated 60 individuals, only three of whom had to withdraw or not go forward in some capacity. that is pretty standard for any administration. every administration before us has had similar challenges with either withdrawn or not go -- >> this applies to the white house. was it because they were friends of the white house? are

i want to read part of your reporting, matthew.says the proposals would utilize an army of spies with no official cover in several countries deemed denied areas for current american intelligence personnel, including north korea and iran. and in order to do this, you would have to have a president who believed that they could successfully get people into north korea and get information back from them. >> well, there is no question that on the part of prince and his colleagues that there may be an effort to upsell their abilities to the white house and to the president. but we have to remember that erik prince used to run a cia program that was geared towards assassinating al qaeda targets during the bush administration. and although there were no known assassinations as a result of that program, the program was put together. the sbiers hipires were hired. the people were sent out. this story first became known to us was one of the things we discovered is that erik prince's team from his cia days was being rehired by erik prince. and

and matthew nussbaum, white house correspondent for politico. peter, ronald reagan used to pretend that the rotor noise from the helicopter was into impossibly loud for him to hear any reporter's questions. this was quite different today. the press pool is standing there, the president chooses to walk over to them, as he does on occasion. he chose to take questions. he knew russia questions were coming. why do what he did, why say what he said today, do you think? >> that's a great point. in fact this has turned out to be his preferred method of communicating with the white house press corps with the helicopter in the background, on the lawn, with the noise. it's kind of an odd choice just esthetically because it's hard to hear, it's hard to have a real interchange. but this is his preferred method for communication for some reason. today in particular he did have a message he wanted to get across. that message was, you know, implicitly at least, time to shut it down, this is not leading anywhere. he's encouraging the allies out there who have b

he thinks it is unfair and thinks it is time to go on the offense. >> matthew, a question for you. first of all, how much of a russia preoccupation is this for the white house? i know i have asked that you before. secondly, for people who don't see right-minded media the way you and i do, explain how big an effort there is behind this story line. >> well we know russia has been major distraction for this white house from day one. and they like to be talking about taxes or health care, anything else. but i think peter is right when he says trump sees an opportunity to go on the offensive here. for so long it's been throwing spaghetti at the wall and see what sticks. it is illegal leaks. look that. oh, what about hillary's uranium deal. look tlat. now with text messages that seem to show some sort of anti-trump sentiment from an investigator who has been let go, now they are saying, look, this probe is biassed. and to get to your second question, for folks in that right wing media bubble, fox news, breitbart, this is really getting built up as in, oh, look, this is what we were telli

so my name is sage matthew, as mentioned. and this afternoon, i will be moving at quite the pace. so that i can squeeze everything in our 45 minutes and have plenty of time for questions. i welcome them. so if they pop up as i speak, do write them down. lafayette, we are here. african-americans and the promise of 1917. one of the enduring myths about the great war, both at the time and in contemporary literature is the idea that african-americans did not, in fact, think very much about or care about world war i. or the at the least they didn't until late 1917 or 1918. and that is absolutely not true. part of this seductive appeal of believing african-americans didn't care about the war at all fits into the notion that they were either too simple or too naval gazing to really caref about what was happening abroad. in point of fact, african-americans had been writing extensively about the great war as early as 1914, even before the war itself breaks out. so they're already start to go keep an eye on what's happening and reporting about it extensively and regularly in the african-ame

matthew noosbaum, white house reporter for politico. and nick ackerman is here with us, watergate special prosecutor. i think, robert, i'd like to begin with rhona. underscore what we've already established, what you already heard about her importance in all things donald trump. >> she's a crucial person, brian. i've known rhona graff for years, as a reporter going up to trump tower. she was and has been for decades the gate keeper for donald trump. she's so close with him personally as a friend. not so much an adviser politically, but as a confidant and totally trusted by the president and then candidate businessman trump. >> the flip side of that, if you're an aggressive prosecutor and you're looking to hear who overheard what, were you on air force one, were you -- obviously she wasn't, but she could have been present at the creation of many a conversation. >> not only was she probably present at many conversations, but president trump does not use e-mail and he relied upon rhona graff for years to keep a record of e-mails that were

matthews' leadership, and i think the plannings before it. during our very long and difficult selection, our process to hire a superintendent at the top of my mind was putting somebody in place that can completely transform the narrative that we've seen around african american students. i believe it's someone that went to mac ateer high school, one of the schools that was shutdown by this board, to come back and lead the district, that we would have the right leadership and be honest about the situation that we're in. the pronoun of we is very appropriate. i appreciate all of the impassioned public comment. there are people in this room that didn't speak that are going to go back into schools tomorrow, knowing and feeling like they're doing the hard work every day, and, like, the comments today were reflective of the passion and the drive and how much they've been working hard to push against what we know to be the case in our schools. school principals that are on this list, the principal at mlk, prince at carver, excellent leaders that are

let's bring in political consultant matthew dowd. matt, good morning to you. >> good morning. >> let's start here with general flynn. what are the political risks for donald trump if he >> well, not to use -- not to overuse a monopoly analogy but he's taking a chance by presenting a get out of jail free card in the midst of this and i think it's either, one, bob mueller is not a dumb guy and my guess is bob mueller's gotten most of the information he needs from michael flynn if he's going to move any further on in that fear of a pardon of keeping the information, the fear of him getting a pardon so he won't cooperate i think is gone. i think it puts donald trump in an interesting position because you're basically holding out the promise of a guy that could be a witness against you that you might pardon them, so it is a question that somebody could ask, is there an obstruction of justice claim involved in just this promise of that possibly happening. >> a conflict of interest. let's go back to the tax bill. looks like this is going to

if trump does show up in great britain, and matthew can say better than i, i think there would be hugewould put all of this on the front burner again. >> matt? >> i think the protests would be unprecedented, larger than george w. bush experienced. i think the tweets cross a line for many people in britain. british people follow american politics closely. they are outraged by things donald trump has said and done. this effects people in britain. there have been terror attacks, tensions are high. i think these crossed a line fo for many people and the news cycle we move on, anytime donald trump even, the idea of him coming to visit the uk, protests will absolutely explode. >> matthew mcgregor, thank you. christopher dickie there in paris. thank you. >>> coming up, we continue to follow new developments in the russia investigation following michael flynn's guilty plea and the big question now. did flynn act independently with the russians, or was he instructed to do so? i want to hide a while behind your smile ah, but i may as well try and catch the wind♪ our mission is to make off-shore
