is also a kind of global presence you have this kind of thing in in georgia for example to which me house has really instituted these kind of i mean. really is not fair trade and western process as a leader whose main concern is maintaining control over his population and when you put yourself in that position all of the russian leaders. the supposedly authoritarian russian leader is what's the point all investing anything in improving how the state interacts with the people unless you mean them because i would think that it's politically dangerous people would get used to being treated with dignity very quickly and supposedly they will start demanding it everywhere i mean yeah sure there's no you know these are all things the improvement of pavements and the provision of of more streamlined kind of happy smiling bureaucrats is something that's going to be that's going to be appreciated by people but neither of those things are reducible to the underlying political system these are things that kind of in a morass with a tearing context and in a more or less democratic context and sort of

house. i didn't go in with any frequency -- preconceived idea but what stunned me about it is what i learned when i got through was that every president learns, often the hard way, that you cannot govern effectively without empowering a white house chief of staff to execute your agenda and tell you what you don't want to hear. lot, andon msnbc a lawrence o'donnell always gives me a hard time because he wants to white house chief of staff to define -- he always gets me that nobody but trump defines his presidency. and that is true. but it has not always been the case. host: republican from new jersey, you're next. caller: hello? host: good morning. caller: good morning. yes, i just have such a problem with people, intelligent people consistently opining about what donald trump could do to be better. he is not normal. he is a 12-year-old. he would probably run it a little better. donald trump is incapable of doing better. and any chief of staff in the category of jim baker would not work for donald trump. because no one can tell them anything because first of all, he can't learn anything. anyt

that house up there, the white one, was me house. i mentioned the gentleman that owns this property. his name is john. he came out when i was teaching my eldest daughter, jordan, to ride her bike. he applauded when she got going on two wheels. yesterday i didn't know what had happened to john. today i'm happy to report that we saw him. he came here to look at husband property. my wife, who is also a reporter, turns out she spoke to him. i didn't get to see him today. i have these reports that he was here looking at his property. my wife spoke to him. he said he's lost absolutely everything he ever had. he was still smiling in the way that only john could because he's alive. trace? >> trace: he's alive and will rebuild. i'm curious, jonathan. as i drove in, you could still see the plumes of black smoke all over southern california. the danger is not over. >> it's not completely over here in southern california. we did see the spot fire last night, about 55 miles east of downtown l.a. they basically have a good grip on it now. when you

i told her about the housing program, the mayor's office, and i told her hey, you've got to do the six hour counseling and the 12 hour training. she said no, i want you to go with me. and then, the very next day that i went to the session, i notice this unit at 616 harrison became available, b.m.i. i was like wow, this could potentially work. housing purchases through the b.m.r. program with the sf mayor's office of housing, they are all lotteries, and for this one, i did win the lottery. there were three people that applied, and they pulled my number first. i won, despite the luck i'd had with the program in the last couple years. things are finally breaking my way. when i first saw the unit, even though i knew it was less than ideal conditions, and it was very junky, i could see what this place could be. it's slowly beginning to feel like home. i can definitely -- you know, once i got it painted and slowly getting my custom furniture to fit this unit because it's a specialized unit, and all the units are microinterms of being very small. this unit in terms of adaptive, in terms of having a murphy bed, using the walls and ceiling, getting as much space as i can.

you would have met with me if i requested it or the white house. correct? >> thank you for those remarks and the partnership you and your staff always showed to me in my work at university hospital. i was honored by that ongoing relationship and absolutely, i look to the guidance of the political process on keeping myself out of the political process. but policy interest. >> i respect that. but the simple question, yes or no. you would have met with me if the white house asked me to. >> i would have absolutely followed whatever guidance was given to me. >> to your knowledge, did the white house ever ask me to have a meeting with you? >> i don't know that senator. >> you have no knowledge. >> i don't know if that request was made. >> appreciate you being candid with that response. don is a person you and i have known for years. >> i have met him, yes. he never represented to you there was a request for a meeting or anything like that. or adequate consultation. >> i don't recall having any conversations with members of the administration about the process that

the go to gendered insole, signed outside parliament house referring to me asa outside parliament housetch, the pornographic cartoons, incredibly file things said on social media and the imagery woven around me in the parliament and media was, when you look at it, gendered at its centre and all of that was more than i was expecting. when i came into the prime ministership, i sort of thought the maximum reaction to be being the first woman would manifest in the early days and everybody would kind of get over it and it would converge into the bomb — that is a pretty hard—hitting norm, we play politics pretty hard... for the information of the house i have determined that there will be a ballot for the leadership and deputy leadership of the party in the meantime take your best shot. actually the gendered stuff grew over time. has that been addressed? some things have changed for the positive and one of the things that i think has changed is, when i was prime minister, most received wisdom in the media was that agenda did not in any way explain anything about my prime ministership. it was

with me is dana bash and cnn white house reporter kate bennett. kate, let me begin with you. why does melania trump care so deeply to have this deputy national security adviser fired? railroad right. brooke, i just want to make sure the statement from mrs. trump's office said it's the position of the office of the first lady that she no longer deserves the honor of serving in this white house. so a very specific statement. a white house official does tell me on background during the trip to africa earlier this month, the first lady's office and some staff members butted heads and they felt she was being a bit obstinate in some of her behavior to some of the requests the first lady's office was making. the source said there was perhaps some retaliation by leaking certain things or attempts to do so. this is from a source inside the white house. it's an unfolding story. but certainly a very unusual, very strong statement from the first lady and her office actually saying this person doesn't deserve to be on staff at the white house. melania trump, as we both know, is not someon

i am surrounded by mercy housing where i live in the south of market. to the south of me, we have columbia square. to the north of me, we have two projects on howard street. to the south of me, we have del soro housing, that we just cut the ribbon on last year, and to the west, we have another. there is nothing more rewarding than seeing the real households, families and seniors that get to stay here in san francisco with security in knowing that they are able to walk into a healthy and safe home every single night with their children and with their grandparents. and this project is exciting because it was the very first -- well, i'm sorry. it was the very first of my time on the board of supervisors when we were -- when we had started initiating the transbay redevelopment process. the first was 100% affordable housing across the street, renee casa nas -- casa nueva. 190 units of affordable housing is an extraordinary project in a single -- in a single building. and on top of that, it has really been our affordable housing developers in transbay that have been the first t

me when i was little. you to the old ground floor and then they take you to the state floor. the two most interesting spaces in any house are the basement and the attic. that is where they were not going to take me. they were not going to take me down to the shelter. i thought that maybe i don't need to. finally, it is important to remember that with every first tend to leave the state floor's alone -- state floors alone. i was afraid of seeing the way the house would have looked like as the obamas had done it and having that as a mental picture. i really needed to discipline myself and not go past 1950. it was important for me to not see the white house in some ways. anyone else? >> how was the support in congress for the funding? standards,today's bipartisan. to get the difficult funding out of congress. that is the short answer. congress first funded the inspections atf $50,000. this was a congress that did not like harry truman for a variety of reasons. they were not from it to him. they were not eager to fork over the money. they did for over the money for the initial inspection. they testified on what they had fou

kim: i mean, to me, it wasn't really -- i did consider the fact that i would get a lot of backlash if i went to the white house, but for me, if it's a life versus my reputation, like, people talk shit about me all day long, like i didn't really care, you know? i really didn't, like what more could they say about me? seriously? like, it really -- when i outweighed the options of bad stories about me that would probably last a week in this day and age news cycle versus saving someone's life, that wasn't an option. i will gladly go there and take the heat. and i also felt like, if he is going to listen to me and he is taking the meeting, maybe i can really get through to him and really explain to him and from meeting all of the people that i have met behind bars, i guarantee you they don't care who signs that currency paper. -- clemency paper. [applause] kim: so, it wasn't an option for me. what are we going to do wait for -- four years, eight years for the person that we might like a little better, but it just wasn't even an option. van: you know, i've had the pleasure, bizarre experience of walking the oval off

me. he sits on the house intelligence committee. nice to have you. t me begin with whether you join some of urfellow democrats in congress who say whitaker must recuse himself from the mueller probe. do you believe he can adequately oversee it? >> i think matthew whitaker's appointment was unconstitutional, illegal, and just plain wrong. it's unconstitutional because he's not been subjected to the confirmation process. illegal because he violated the a.g. succession statute and plain wrong because we're learning things about his background that should have been exposed in the vetting process. he's frankly not qualified to be the attorney general. >> on the law, on the constitutionality of it, two points i would make. the federal vacancies reform act of 1998 lays out that the president can appoint someone to a position like this if they served in that department for at least 90 days, which he has. then when you look at precedent here, you have a supreme court case dating back to 1898. that's u.s. v. eaten where the court decided it was constitutional.

me. a house of lords investigation decided lord lester, who says it's all completely untrue, should be suspended longest suspension since the second world war. but his colleagues in the lords blocked that yesterday. if you are accused of serious misconduct, and the issue turns on credibility and you face a serious sanction, you are entitled, you have a legal right to cross examine the person making these allegations against you. how did it leave you feeling? angry. ifelt bullied, to be quite honest with you. i felt bullied by them. what happened yesterday in the house of lords was not fair. i did not have the right to respond. these individuals voted on a sanction and these individuals were his peers. a few days after, you wrote in an inscription of a book to lord lester, "with love and admiration". questions have been asked about that. he dictated to me what i should write in that book, so i wrote it. just to get rid of him. lord lester thanked his fellow members of the house of lords who supported him, and says he now looks forward to restoring his reputation. but the lords' authorities say th

house. investigate me? we investigate you. d from senate majority leader mitch mcconnell just a few moments ago. >> the democrats in the house will have to decide just how much presidential harassment they think is good strategy. >> today is more than about democrats and republicans, it's about restoring the constitution's checks and balances to the trump administration. >> o
