there were also plans -- no plans to take out a mosaic at the school lobby, and rebel symbols on the gym floor. and newspapers that were the voice of the white community, there were articles describing white students crying, some studentsnd some appearing to accept the changes. but it was a very dramatic time within the school. the discussion largely died down about what the school should be named, until charlottesville. ace charlottesville happened, minister of hispanic heritage andn to raise the issue, what was gratifying and interesting about presenting this to people is, even people on the school board approached the folkso approached at the tyler loop, saying over and over again, we didn't know this. we didn't know this. we didn't know this about our own community. so what started it as a curiosity b about someone saying, if you don't know your history you are going to repeated, and a curiosity that led to this project, where we were presenting it to people. in some cases, for the first time, even though they may go back generations in the white community and also in the black c

what we're seeing is pieces of a mosa mosaic establishing collusions with the russians and these pieces are very powerful evidence. the involvement of an oligarch, not just any oligarch, an individual who was sanctioned by our own government, viktor vekselberg and payments to the president's lawyer from the russian oligarch, that prospect is very serious evidence of collusion. >> your calling now for another investigation into the payments. have you received first of all any response? >> we've received no response yet. but these payments absolutely require intense investigation immediately and prompt. vigorous investigation. let's be very blunt here, the special counsel knows a lot more about the purpose and intent of the payments than we do because he is talked to at&t and novartis and korean aerospace and he very likely at this point is looking to cooperation from michael cohen and think the chances of that cooperation have risen astronomically with this news because it is big trouble for him and huge liability. >> senator richard blumenthal, thank you for joining us. >> thank you. >>

obstruction of justice, but i think that obstruction of justice from mueller's standpoint is going to be a mosaicr: so it's just a piece of a puzzle. >> it's a piece of a puzzle. >> reporter: a very big jigsaw with a trove of characters. the russians, 13 indicted for trolling americans on social media, political trickster roger stone, longtime friend of the president who denies coordinating with wikileaks. wikileaks founder julian assange who distributed the democratic national committee's e-mails hacked by the russians, campaign aide carter page. his frequent trips to moscow raising eyebrows, and trump lawyer michael cohen who pushed a never built trump tower moscow during the election and was recently raided by the fbi. the trump family is not immune either. son-in-law jared kushner who sought a back channel with russians and then omitted those contacts on disclosure forms. and yet after one year while the president runs on and on. >> it's a tote al witch-hunt. i've been saying it for a long time. >> reporter: mueller runs silent and runs deep. >> we are piloting the "titanic." we have seen the

when you stop acknowledging that, that's when things fall apart into thiso mosaic of tribl warfare, whyr say that? >> carlson, i don't know if that's norwegian or german -- we didn't allow germans to teach german to their kids until a supreme court case that had to be settled in the early 20thle century. we don't like people who are different from us. >> tucker: the longer this conversation goes on, the more you get to the beating heart of the truth which is this is is.shment, that's what this as you know. >> all the studies have shown the job set the refugees and asylum-seekers take it benefit the economy within five years upon her bible, all of the studies have shown a positive economic impact in the regions. >> tucker: we are out of time, let meon just say, that's totaly untrue. text me those studies we will talk about a it next week, it wl be fun. we are out of time. the u.s. appears to be lurching much closer to conflict with iran, is that a good idea? will tell you next. life pocahontas -- we found one, -- she says the president's use of the word pocahontas is not a racial slur, w

and thirdly, david used the word, mosaic. all the court yards, park spaces. one of the ideas, we have developed furnishing and attractions within the park, we're trying to create multiple stages for activity. and the market space, the square is activity space for the building 12 program to extend out, as well as community events. it's about half the size of the piazza. the piazza is more wide and open, but it has a different function. the program using those buildings are going to be occupying that space. you have big open spaces, you have trees that make intimacy. we have furnishing that brings people together. so i think the collective works, works together, especially given the ways that you navigate and connect with the site. this whole notion of meander, the streets being the main way to connect. so it feels like one place. then building on the richness that each place you find can offer something a little different. different scales, different opportunities for experience. >> commissioner makras: i want to echo commissioner gilman's comments. i'm just d

charles: you know, i looked at the room and watched as the mayors took their turns and i saw that great mosaic that david dinkins used to talk about. that takes away from the rhetoric out there that this is racially driven or motivated by anything else. you mayors or elected officials in california agreeing with president trump that this is a dangerous path. what are your thoughts on that? >> i think it's a dangerous path, and we need protection. this isn't about immigration, this is about illegal immigrants committing crimes and protecting those in our communities that we serve and we were elected to uphold in the constitution. really that's what it's about. this isn't a racially driven conversation. as a mayor of a city that is predominantly hispanic in demographic and being hispanic myself, we want people here doing things for the right reasons and based on merit. we want to keep those people here. we're not trying to push anybody out. we want to protect our communities. charles: meanwhile, governor brown went on another tirade against president trump. something he tends to do more and more

pieces in a mosaic that the special prosecutor is very carefully assembling.g of jim comey, the concocting of a false statement to explain a trump tower meeting, a series of events that amount to obstruction of justice. but in addition, these additional pieces of evidence as to his paying and thereafter concealing and lying about it. >> republican congressman charlie dent is calling for oversight hearings into the stormy daniels' payment. do you agree? >> i think there is a need for more hearings. the judiciary committee ought to be having hearings. i've been frustrated by the slow pace of the investigation. i think it has to be accelerated. >> i want to talk to you about what's going on with uber because i know you are very concerned about this. a cnn exclusive this week found that there have been 103 uber drivers who have been accused of sexual assault in the past four years. you are -- the reason the public doesn't know about this is because of these arbitration clauses. so you unknowingly as a passenger for uber click on something saying, yes, i agree to a

mission act becomes the final mosaic in the beautiful patchwork of benefits of those who sacrificed the most for us. i notice the absence of a quorum. the presiding officer: will the senator withhold his request? a senator: madam president? the presiding officer: the senator from iowa. mrs. ernst: i ask that the quorum call be vitiated. the presiding officer: the senate is not in a quorum call. mrs. ernst: thank you, mr. president. thank you, chairman isaacston for your work on this bill as a veteran, as a spouse of a veteran, as the mother of a young lady who will enter into the service this summer and as a grandmother to a young man who will begin his enlistment this fall, i thank you. i than -- i thank you for the work that you have done. i appreciate your service as well. thank you so much. we can and we must do better for our veterans. i spoke those words during my very first speech given here on the senate floor just over three years ago. i also spoke about the need to fulfill the promises made to our veterans who have sacrificed everything for our country. at that time the averag

you're constitutionally permitted to do, so if there is a abuse of office inquiry, that inquiry is a mosaicmponents. the firing of comey, the asking of comey to let the flynn investigation go and now we have this additional group of pieces that all involve whether or not there was undo pressure point on not only sessions but also white house counsel don mcgahn to undo himself because of the thought -- because of the thought that if he had the right guy then they could stymie this investigation. that's what underlies this. >> and the talk about, you know, cmparing him to holder and saying holder protecting obama. before you go, giuliani, the president's personal lawyer, his defense in this is important. unrecused doesn't say bury the investigation. it says on the face of it, take responsibility for it and handle it correctly. good enough? is that going to fly with mueller's team? >> remember, giuliani was a guy who said a couple of weeks ago, he's only partially there in terms of learning the law and facts. he's still partially there because as we started at the top of this segment, the law

when you stop acknowledging that, that's when things fall apart into this mosaic of tribal warfare, asno one ever say that? >> let's be honest. i don't know if that's norwegian or german, but we didn't allow germans to teach german to their kids. a supreme court case had to be settled in the early 20th century because we have this issue were we don't like people or different from us. >> tucker: we are racist, we deserve it. this is our punishment. i love it because the longer these conversations go on the more you get to the beating heart of the truth, which is this is punishment. that's really what this is. [laughs] as you know. so good. >> all the studies have shown the refugees and asylum seekers take actually benefit the economy within five years upon arrival. all of the studies have shown a positive economic impact in the regions. >> tucker: unfortunately we are out of time but let me just say a somebody who does this for a living that's totally untrue. text me though studies and we will talk about it next week. we are out of time. it's great to see you. >> i will. thanks. >> tuck

i have to choose my words claiferl because i don't know what's been classified but there was a mosaicinformatio that convince add court that that individual carter page, thereau was probable to believe he was an agent of a foreign power. >> woodruff: but you'repo not saying there had to be a dossies for this to happen? >> in order to get the f.i.s.a. warrant, that's not my recollection. >> woodruff: you've also had a long time to think about what was in thatossier. did you find it credible? >> well, the core allegation ofo the dossier was credible,cr consistent with the otherh intelligence that the t hetelligence community had gathered, that is russianss are engaged in a sophisticated, comprehensive effoed att our election.ou that turned out to be true.r there were ls of spokes in the dossier off the central hub, bur t hub was consistent with other intense. an effort was underway to try towns whether the other spokes could be ruled in, ruled out, and i don't know whetheat ended up. >> woodruff: so the hillary clinton e-mails, you spend a good chunk of this booknd deg your actions the

but the full mosaic will require further investigation. the american people deserve to know the truth. >> so our big question today is, have we learned anything new from the transcripts? let's get right to it with the team of reporters and analysts. ken dilanian. jonathan lemire. and eli stokols is an msnbc analyst. ken, you've been combing through all this testimony with your colleagues. what do you think has stood out? >> good afternoon, katy. the big thing that stood out is that donald trump jr. is locked into a story now. he's saying definitively that he never discussed this meeting with his father, either before or after, despite a call to a blocked number both before and after that democrats suspect was then candidate donald trump. and potentially robert mueller will get to find the answer to that question. but for right now donald trump jr. saying his dad had no prior knowledge of this meeting and only learned about it through the news media. i think the other pictures that's being filled in is just how brazen this was, just how dir

a state where we're still home to 17 although we just had an announcement i think yesterday that mosaic is now moving to tampa, florida, so i guess we'll be the home to 16 fortune 500 companies now. we're very proud of that and we're proud of being a place where companies like met tronices started in a garage. the idea of main street family community banks, credit unions being able to be that place where creators, innovators to go to get that start-up capital is what this is all about. anything that we can do to grow that is very important, and we've been losing a community bank a day, as you know, mike. we started in 2008 at the time of the crash. we had 8,000 community banks, roughly 8,000 credit unions across this country. a year after the crash we still had roughly the same number. now it's seven plus years, almost eight years i guess since the passage of dodd-frank. we're down to about 6,000 of each and losing one a day. when i say i have a disagreement with the folks at the federal reserve, dr. stanley fisher told me that's because they can't keep up with technology. i told him he

nowldine: emerging markets are really amazing work -- really a mosaic of different countries.e are late cycle and probably everybody is trying to -- at the moment. alix: so where were the opportunity come, if we see the contagion spread, in addition to the dollar holding up of the fed winds of doing a hike? geraldine: it looks like asia is typically a safer area the uncertain high-yield countries, but the recent move has created some value and we are seeing some exchange rates, which are starting to deviate from their fair exchange rate. but ultimately, you know, emerging markets are high -- to global growth end of global growth is really slowing down as the fed is hiking, this would be a less a favorable environment for emerging markets. so a bit of a wait and see with a certain aspects. but generally speaking, we do not think the recession is around the corner. it we think that central banks are relatively dovish, no big signs of inflation. so it is a bit early to cry wolf. david: as we look at the lira moving, before that the argentinian peso, how much are the fundamentals

cf industries, preport, mosaic all on the weak side we have ancillary issues going a sell on the news on the banking -- the regional bank stocks all run up on the hope of the dodd/frank reform. they essentially have gotten it. all of these stocks up 6, 7% in the last month off a bit today. and the yields stopped going up on top of that but the u.s. economy is doing a lot better than the european economy. we got numbers today from europe that were frankly not good manufacturing, pmi numbers at 18 months lows, the earnings for the first quarter were terrible. they were up 3%. the u.s. earnings were up 26%. i have never seen that, eight times better earnings in the united states. obviously, half of that is the tax cut. but that's a big differential. the result is europe has dramatically underperformed. flat for a year. and europe up 14% on the s&p 500 in the last 12 months. tiffani's, same store sales up 7% theyreport, japan up 9%, america is up 9% europe, down 9 brz there in a microcosm tells you that europe is declining while the rest of the world is increasing in tiffany sales. news f
