then melania trump did.so she doesn't have any problems gaining attention after leaving the white house. some people might argue that melania trump did not get enough attention, but that's a whole different argument that we can save another conversation. >> nancy? >> i think it's interesting that even today that in terms of formal filming coverage of a first lady, it's not the same. the white house communications agency does not cover consistently first lady speeches or public appearances the way they do the president. so a lot of us when we are looking for something scholarly, we are wondering why there's no official record of this and you are picking it up from news media or instead of from the official. i think it's interesting in that, overtime, their speeches have had very powerful [inaudible] and the panel has pointed out and it would be nice to have them have a more formal process of what was covered, [inaudible] there is no real easy way of getting that as part of the coverage. >> i'm thinking we hav

she actually gained more attention during melania trump's time is first lady then melania trump did and so she's in it doesn't have any problems gaining attention after after leaving the white house some people might argue that melania trump didn't receive enough attention, but that's a whole different argument that we could save for another conversation. yeah. i think we can do it program nancy. yeah. i think that it's also interesting that even today that in terms of formal filming coverage of first lady it is not the same the white house communications agency does not cover consistently first ladies speeches or public appearances the way they do depressants. so a lot of us when we're scholarly looking for something are wondering why isn't there an official record of this and you're picking it up from news media or instead of from the official and i think that's interesting in that. our time their speeches have had very powerful effects as the panel has pointed out and it wouldn't be nice to have their have a more formal process of what was covered. and sort of like the papers of the

anyone in their presence would agree that melania trump is zoned in and has his back. not in i my husband is perfect and she knows who is saying what about what and who you can trust and can't. she has been burned by grisham and another one goes and writes books, they have learned to trust each other and that was echoed in today's story. >> steve: flies in the face of stories we heard she didn't want him to run for president, she according to page six, is 100% behind him. page six today, we've been talking about glenn youngkin, governor of commonwealth of virginia will get in the race. this weekend, according to page six, wilbur ross had a big dinner and guest of honor of governor youngkin, a bunch of billionaires were there. they said it wasn't a fund raiser, paulson, nelson paul, a lot of people with a lot of money asking his pog about different things on heels of university of virginia college poll that came out lavt week that showed in commonwealth of virginia, if it were glenn youngkin versus joe biden, glenn youngkin would beat joe biden who won the state in 2020

labor summits that he was so fond of paired kisses that the americans even launched the hashtag melania trump loves labor on twitter 4 years ago based on the hashtag milan plus 3d users twitters made a movie post-poster justin never made a film about broken love, eyes on the floor - this is an embarrassed donald trump, but udo's eyes burned on milan. in 2014 , canadian tv asked bluntly our marriage wasn't perfect, and we had some rocky ups and downs. downs saying, ups and downs you mean extramarital affair, but kissing turnetride was no longer stop in 2018. he so broke up with filipino businesswomen. what imperceptibly passed to businessmen? trudeau's wife has cooled off the internet trolls their walks at lgbt parades and staged. but because of that, even more clumsy tenderness on confidence over the past 3 years , the handshake of the canadian leader was ignored by his colleagues from europe and asia last year , xi jinping publicly reprimanded trudeau for gossip, but she the horse is not a divorce. trudeau often on tête-à-tête zelensky you see the third meeting in 2 weeks glad to see no kiss

a that wod draw attention to issues michelle obama actually she gained more attention during melania trump'sirst lady than melania trumpeted. she doesn't have any problem gaining attention after leaving the white house but some people might argue that melania trump did not receive enough attention but that's a whole different argument we can save another conversation. nancy? >> i think it's also interesting that even today in terms of coverage of a first lady it is not the same the white house communication does not cover consistently first ladies speeches or public appearances. so a lot of us when we are looking for staff are wondering why isn't there an official record of this and were picking it up from news media instead of from the official. i think that is interesting in that over time their speeches have had very powerful effects in the panel has pointed out. it would be nice to have it more formal process of what was covered in the papers of first ladies. there's no real easy way of giving the speech is part of asf that is coverage. is coverage or lack of. >> i'm thinking we have ano

they have not made mention but there is a passing reference to melania trump in relation to one of the codefendants hauling the boxes around which is interesting given how much focus the january 6 committee when they hold that hearing based on trump's own family and their testimony and think about ivanka trump's discussion about how she believes bill barr said there is no evidence of election fraud that would've changed the result of the election. when you talk about jared kushner and talk about i wasn't really there. he is trying to put some distance away from january 6. i wonder when it gets to trial that this is where you will see the transcription testimonies come out and illustrate the point that even trump some family -- own family did not believe this. host: there were more serious charges in the mar-a-lago case. are more charges likely in this case related to january 6? guest: it's possible i may know that the grand jury and d.c. has been hearing evidence about potential fraud with respect to the save america pack and how they were fundraising and they want to stand up a legal

what about melania trump ? what about melania trump? trump? what about melania trump? have disappeared from trump's side, not at the core cases . they're not on the core cases. they're not on the campaign trail. is she clearing off as well ? off as well? >> well, who knows? you're quite right. we haven't seen her for ages, have we? and she often looked pretty glum anyway. i mean, think melania is an example of i've just got to grin and bear it. but poor melania, i mean, i don't know how she's put up with it all these years. and if she's now got to go through all court case business, my all the court case business, my guess totally guess is she has a totally separate life she gets on separate life and she gets on with and donald on with her life and donald gets on with her life and donald gets on with i mean, talk about with his. but i mean, talk about normal donald trump is normal people. donald trump is not normal by any yardstick . not normal by any yardstick. but, you know, marriage is a lifelong commitment or it should be. and i just wish people would first of all,

melania trump won't even be seen with him. but his donors are paying for her hairstylist. town. that's just crazy town. >> david, what do you think? claire is exactly right. donald trump, and it is, it's not being insulting, he has a long history of not paying. but does this make him appear so small, to be going to the public, a guy who touts himself so rich, you know, rolling in it, to say, hey, open up your checkbook, and write a check for my voice here? it makes him look -- >> well, one of the things i learned writing about inequality in america for the last 30 years is a lot of people can't distinguish between people who make a quarter million dollars a year and a quarter billion dollars a year. it's just the numbers are so big, they're meaningless to people. but i do think politically trump's vulnerable on this very point. why are you raising money like this? we thought you were worth ten billion dollars. you are supposed to be the modern midas, everything you touch turns to gold. and on the other hand, the low level employees in the mar-a-lago case, the documents case

how melania trump is involved here, i don't really get it.y is, i don't know if she's consulting them. i don't know what's going on there. but i do know she doesn't seem to be involved in the campaign that much. i think you have some of donald trump's opponents making this an issue, this idea that here's this guy that's a billionaire but looking to ordinary americans who are spending in their $20 or $50. and they are paying his legal bills. it's not really booking in terms of landing folks or preventing them from sending money. >> totally. there's so many fascinating subplots when it comes to this race. and some of it is born out in the cruxes to various candidates and their pacs and superpacs. we're mentioning donald trump. his son-in-law has given money to his entities. as has his father, charlie kushner. chles was somebody who was put in jail by chris christie, look tt. chris christie got money from the kushner. murray is jared kushner's uncle. and he's also somebody who helped chris christie put charles kushner in jail when crhristie was

you know what i'm saying [ laughter ] meanwhile, i heard that melania trump is still angry at her husbandstormy daniels scandal and doesn't sympathize with him for facing charges that's shocking given how warm and affectionate she and donald are in public. [ laughter ] you can tell melania's mad because the last three nights, donald's been sleeping on the golden futon [ laughter ] well, get this, florida governor ron desantis said that he would not accept an offer to be trump's running mate. that's shocking given how warm and affectionate he and donald are in public. [ laughter ] i think it's a good decision because don and ron doesn't sound like leaders of the free world. [ laughter ] sound like twin brothers on tiktok [ laughter ] >> who painted the mona lisa mona lisa. >> yeah. >> da vinkie >> da vinkie [ laughter ] >> jimmy: vinkie i saw -- i saw that president biden was in ottawa today where he made a big speech to canada's parliament. here he is with canada's prime minister justin trudeau. wow, look at those guys. they look like yoda and baby yoda. [ laughter ] they look like alfred

his wife melania trump is not traveling with him, as she has not previously for these indictments. we have not seen his daughter ivanka trump, who was a senior adviser inside the white house. her husband, jared, also served inside the white house. who is close around donald trump? what do we know about who is talking to him, who has his ear right now, in addition to his legal team, as he navigates this very complex and very serious set of legal problems? >> it's such an interesting question. we know the people who were public facing, steve chong, for example, his spokesperson, jason miller, but then of course, there are some of those who served with him in his administration, with whom he still talks. now, those are people who, for example, are not necessarily the public facing people, but people who were with him during the 2016 campaign, for example. who are still on the phone with him, still advising him. and so he still has this close circle of trusted people around him. the question is, of those, who are the people who can really say to him, here's the truth of the matter, i wa

the victim of stormy melania trump that, full on just taking his moves. >> is it hard for you to studycs, that for you which is so easy to pick up on? >> i mean honestly, a lot of them are just in my mind so much. >> are you traumatized, when you have to sit there? >> when i see desantis try to smile, that's is traumatizing. or mcconnell freezing [laughter] . no honestly >> what do you do, do you just take a cold shower, and be like i've got to wash this off of me. >> no honestly, these guys are like actress, basically. it's like i'm watching a movie, which i know is a frightening thing to say, because this is politics, and they have dramatic impacts on our lives. but, it's entertainment, honestly, as horrible as it is to say. but i feel disgusting. >> one person that we have not heard from this week, mitch mcconnell. i would love to know what mitch mcconnell thought of the. [laughter] >> yeah. what was your question? mitch, what did you think of the republican field? >> well, that's for nothing, more party as presented a slew of, interesting candidates who, i look forward to seeing po

from our friends at spotify [ laughter ] according to newly released testimony, former first lady melania trump upset that rudy giuliani was allowed inside the white house residence and was worried about him seeing her wearing a bathrobe or, 1,000 times more likely, her seeing him in one [ laughter ] new york state's first licensed marijuana store opened last week in manhattan at 4:20 p.m., and it must be good weed because it was supposed to open at 10:00 a.m. [ laughter ] and finally, yesterday was national 55-mile-per-hour speed limit day, or as it's called in new jersey, "the texting lane. that was the monologue, everybody. we're off! [ cheers and applause it's a new year. we got a great show for you tonight. he's an incredible academy award nominated actor, you've seen in "boardwalk empire" and "revolutionary road. he's currently starring in "george & tammy" on showtime michael shannon is back, everybody. [ cheers and applause she is a grammy-winning, and tony and emmy-nominated actress you know from "orange is the new black" and broadway's "the color purple." now she's starring in broadway

. >> in your last role in the trump administration, chief of staff to the first lady, melania trump, as not appeared at any of his three arraignments. trump mentioned her in a recent interview. here's what he said. >> unpleasant when you have to tell your wife indicted. and she says for what. i say i have no idea. i have absolutely no idea. >> stephanie, you know her well. you know that she's well aware of the power she has, the influence she has with him. what do you make of her silence? >> i actually don't make anything of it. that is melenia trump. she's saying this is his issue, he can deal with it. he doesn't need me there to prop him up. i'm too busy to go with him. that's who she is. she will show up by his side when she wants to, when she's perfectly ready. i doubt that audio you just played, if that conversation even happened, which i wonder if it happened, she knows what's going on. she watches media as much he does. and so she absolutely knows what's going on. >> interesting. so olivia, your former boss, mike pence, is now fund raising off this. no doubt trump will as well.

let me ask you, finally, about the -- exclusive that says melania trump is carrying on after the georgiaanother problem for her husband, not her. you worked closely with melania. is it that simple for her? >> i think it's that simple in terms of, you know, showing public displays of support. it's just not in her nature. i'm sure she is supporting him the best that she can in private. she's a very private woman. i do think she has the mentality of this is his problem, but not in a cold, heartless way. she just thinks he is a strong enough man that she doesn't need her to prop him up. that's something that saved with me quite a bit. i know she's probably really concerned about their son as well, and keeping him sheltered from this as much as possible, if that's possible. so, i'm sure she's going about doing exactly what she wants to do. but i'm sure she's also supporting him in whatever ways she can behind the scenes. >> okay, stephanie grisham, thank you for your conversation in supporting the show. it's always good to see you, my friend. thank you. >> you too. >> the important guests hea

they've kushner, melania trump.may win. he may win president again. but, you know , he's he's again. but, you know, he's he's got a lot he's looking at a lot of legal cases on an expense for the lawyers as well, and also for the donors. >> yeah. thank you very much for joining us. and of course, we'll continue monitor 4:00 us continue to monitor 4:00 us time, 9:00 london time. we'll have all the latest here on gb news. but let's get an update now on the headlines. rihanna is waiting for . now on the headlines. rihanna is waiting for. us >> mark, thank you. good afternoon. it's 232. your top stories from the newsroom . i'm stories from the newsroom. i'm the bank of england has raised its interest rate for the 14th time in a row. its increasing from 5 to 5.25. the highest base rate since 2008. the bank says it expects inflation to be halved by the end of the year. one of the government's key priorities , the increase piles priorities, the increase piles yet more pressure on borrowers, mortgage holders and struggling h

they have not made mention but there is a passing reference to melania trump in relation to one of theodefendants hauling the boxes around which is interesting given how much focus the january 6 committee when they hold that hearing based on trump's own family and their testimony and think about ivanka trump's discussion about how she believes bill barr said there is no evidence of election fraud that would've changed the result of the election. when you talk about jared kushner and talk about i wasn't really there. he is trying to put some distance away from january 6. i wonder when it gets to trial that this is where you will see the transcription testimonies come out and illustrate the point that even trump some family -- own family did not believe this. host: there were more serious charges in the mar-a-lago case. are more charges likely in this case related to january 6? guest: it's possible i may know that the grand jury and d.c. has been hearing evidence about potential fraud with respect to the save america pack and how they were fundraising and they want to stand up a legal de

melania trump came over here. they have the right like she had the right.ost: here is j on facebook, go after the americans they give these people jobs when they are illegal. that will shut off the pipeline real quick. it is our own fault. don in california, independent. what is your message? caller: my message to the immigration people is enforce the law. these people come across here illegallarbreaking the law. they have no business in this country. this idea that the taxpayer has toakcare of these people is ridiculous. years ago if you were an immigrant to this country and you were in danger of becoming -- charge the taxpayer, you are eligible for immediate deportation. pick them up, pack them up, get them out of here and build the wall. thank you. host: orange park, florida, democratic caller. it is your turn. caller: good morning. what we need to do is allow some of these people to come in. i know everybody cannot come in. when we say pick them up, throw away the key, send them back, this country was built off of immigrants. we need immigrants to do jo

even bill and hillary clinton attended his wedding to melania in 2005. trump had an enormous circle of people who wanted to be around him. all of that changed, of course, had he got involved in politics. his reputation took a hit soon after he embraced the racist idea of birtherism and more so after he called mexicaned rapists and of course, the "access hollywood" tape, but even after all that, he had high profile supporters including military generals and prominent businessmen who clamored to join his administration. even mitt romney begged to get on board. remember that humiliating dinner they had together. but donald trump drove most of them away too, thanks in no small part to the attempted coup where his supporters beat police officers with flag poles and threatened the lives of officials. allen weisselberg and michael cohen would end up in jail because of trump, and after the election, even his flunkies at fox were pretty much over him. texting about how much they hate him passionately. many of his most servile allies had their reputations ruined like ru

. >> brian: yeah, tomorrow, i'm just getting record that donald trump and melania will also be doingroofs on the shoee --burps on the show. ron desantis says this. i'm the second place guy. he says him and his surrogates governor stith and chip roy are fanning out throughout milwaukee and saying look this is a two person race between me and donald trump. he wants that to be the theme after. you mentioned nikki haley. she quoted pat benatar give me your best shot. that's what she wants. she wants to be engaged. now she has someone to go after on foreign policy. steve, to back you up. some of these things are not lack of experience. he doesn't say i have lack of experience but can you trust me on this i will get good people and get the next colin powell. what his views are are opening him wide up to people to attack and. >> ainsley: criticize. >> brian: try to drive a mac true through. he sat down with martha mccallum yesterday and tried to straighten things out. the atlantic mischaracterized his statements on 9/11. he does not believe we american agents on the plane on 9/11. so, that'

to be speaking to christine hamilton to particularly after trudeau separated from his wife and melania trumpnd the attempts by the government to get the waiting list down. they're going to use spare capacity in the private sector to get those waiting lists down, something that the labour party that also the labour party support the question is, is that just common sense that should have been done ages or is have been done ages ago or is this nhs by

beren trump is their joint child with melania. well, there you can see the whole tree further.hildren, and biden has ashley biden bo biden, who passed away, but due to cancer. well, famous, of course. hunter biden, below is a date, biden, a girl who was not recognized there for a long time, uh, whether they had a relationship or not, tom, biden, in the end said okay, hunter had and had, but hunter's story we all know, this is a complete drug addict who behaves inappropriately. here we traced further and looked somehow strange everything looks. and hmm a separate element. uh, about this there is a hunter bidenon. let's listen. what features does a hunteraiden have, besides an extravagant appearance under drugs at various parties, there was a rather delicate moment in the hunter’s correspondence with his father, he discussed his daughter-in-law, with whom he had an affair, and in this correspondence he wrote. she told my psychotherapist that i molested a fourteen-year-old girl, allegedly. walked around her naked, complaining that i smoke crack and pester all the girls in a row. t

old one until january to move out of course, trump spent those two months convinced the election was going to get overturned. he probably stood over melania was putting clothes in a suitcase saying, "i don't know why you're doing that. you're just going to have to put them back in the drawer when mike pence refuses to certify the election." she's like, "donald, please, i want to get this done. don't wait until the last minute." [ laughter ] and then the morning of the inauguration, melania was yelling into the oval office, "the helicopter is here! and he was just running around throwing documents into a duffle bag yelling, "on my way, mel on my way. i'm just writing a note to joe biden wishing him luck and all that [ bleep ], [ bleep ] i don't know what i'm allowed to - i'll take everything i'll take everything." now, one of the keys to proving in court that trump broke the law in particular that he obstructed justice or violated the espionage act, which was cited by the doj in its warrant to search mar-a-lago is demonstrating that trump willfully retained national defense information that he knew he shouldn't have. and this week, we got

trump. both are fox news contributes. kellyanne, i know you remember this trip to puerto rico. you might as well have thought that, you know, melania said something incredibly cruel to the victims of the hurricanes there but they stayed on that story about her coat for, i think this went on for almost two weeks. >> well, the message on her coat was for the mainstream media. it occurred after she had been at the border visiting the children. that was for the mainstream media. that aside, this is the essence of who joe biden is he got elected in 2020 on a false premise. i'm a moderate. i'm a unifier. i'm compassionate done. i'm empathetic. i have been in government for half a century. therefore i can expense resources to people in need like if they ever suffer from the america's greatest fire in maui. but i don't want to excuse his conduct, laura. i'm sick of people saying these are gaffes. that he exsass gear rates and embellishes these are flat out lies. who is around him to stop him. do you know how long of a flight around them. him. hey don't mention the house fire again like did you in october of 2022 when people were suffering

[ laughter ] trump spent the holiday at mar-a-lago for the traditional easter egg and witch hunt. we got a glimpse of melaniaor the first time in quite a while. somebody was at the event, shot some video. look at those two love birds. got his phone on the. you can see he's got two diet cokes. [ laughter ] two diet cokes and a water right there on the table. so they have a lot of fun. [ laughter ] poor melania. imagine everything he put her through last week, then wakes her up on easter, "i need you to come downstairs and eat an omelette on camera with me today." [ laughter ] his plus one at ufc 287 was none other than kid rock. [ laughter ] i wonder what those two are talking about. you know he doesn't even like ufc. he's like, ufc, i love their chicken. [ laughter ] it's fantastic. [ applause ] you know, he doesn't know what's going on. right now, trump, he may need the ufc. he's gearing up for a hell of a legal fight. maybe four of them. according to a new poll from abc news, a majority of americans believe the former president intentionally broke the law, whereas 20% believe he didn't do anything wrong. t

trump tower or his plane. but he's taking the money from everyday americans and paying his legal fees $108,000 for melania's stylistolitical strategy consulting. >> if you look at nikki haley, though, she says she's not obsessively anti-trump like you are. >> we can't figure out what nikki is, and she said she would not run if trump ran, and -- let's put it this way. i am not auditioning for any position in the trump administration, and i got offered white house chief of staff, and secretary of labor and turned it down, and ambassador of italy and turned it down. i want to be president of the united states so i don't have to worry about it and i am not obsessive about anything other than trying to get our country back in a direction where we work together towards common goals of a common economy and i am not worried about anything other than that. for nikki, like, if you are not going to beat donald trump, you are not going to win that's it. it's that simple >> if you look at the party, it's interesting, the republican party, the democrats when they don't have the white house the number of candidates are huge. we s

trump rattled on for 44 minutes. he covered a wide range of topics, including nafta, tax cuts, crowd size, illegal immigration, the election, why they don't put melanian magazine covers anymore, the space force. it was quite a performance and he got it in just before tomorrow when the oscar nominations come out. >> inflation a death sentence for a country. you just can look back over the last 200 or 300 years, and you look at what inflation has done to many other countries. it is an absolute death sentence. but your sister diamond was taken from us much too soon. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: inflation -- inflation killed diamond? i don't know. and by the way, we're just getting started! >> i've done a tremendous amount of work for the african american population, the black population. and i always ask, what do you like better, african american, black, you know, there is many different terms. they said we like black. we like black. because i was always saying african american. but many people said we like black. >> jimmy: dr. martin luther king jr.'s dream has finally come true. it was more of a me-logy than a eulogy. it was entirely about donald trump. he

a melania and ignored him. [ laughter ] and of course, whatever the new evidence may be, it is not likely to move the needle on the right. they don't want to look at the evidence. they could have trumpn video saying, "i hereby order my mob to invade the capitol, kill mike pence, overthrow our democracy, and make me president for life!" and republicans would be like, "oh, well what about hunter? that laptop is very questionable." [ laughter ] once the january 6th hearings are wrapped up, we can finally focus on the other 850 investigations of donald trump. trump wants the supreme court to step in and rule on his dispute with the justice department over those classified documents he stashed in the basement at mar-a-lago. interestingly, the way the jurisdiction worked out, trump's request went to of all people, clarence thomas. who is the most pro-trump justice. he will decide whether the court will weigh in on this. if he says no -- if he says no, trump's not getting any help from anybody. [ laughter ] clarence thomas' wife is a qanut! her name is "ginny," for god's sake. [ laughter ] that's all you need to know. the department of justice says these records trump had are so sensitive,

trump? obviously, there's nothing fancy either. nothing too fancy there either. i can't see it. >> melaniae stood and 809 you see, she. >> she's. >> she's. >> she's. >> she dresses impeccably very well dressed, whatever. yeah. >> both think melania style >> we both think melania style fans. anyway this is high level stuff, but actually we're getting into it with the professor emeritus of american history, kevin yule . good history, kevin yule. good morning to you. on a serious note in of this big debate, note, in all of this big debate, what makes you think i'm not being serious? >> i'm being very serious. >> i'm being very serious. >> as to with that, then as to what i would like kevin to what and i would like kevin to put that to you, that there has to be a very big factor that people for politicians people who vote for politicians could to them in could be attracted to them in some way, either physically , some way, either physically, sorry, the pulling power is what i'm seriously talking about. >> how important is pulling power? kevin well, i mean, look at jfk , for instance, jfk was a
