mr. speaker, i rise today to honor the memory and celebrate the life of don l. taylor. lifelong resident of wisconsin and a friend who peacefully passed away at age 88 on april 16, 2021, surrounded by his family. don was active in many civic and service organizations and wore many hats throughout his lifetime. he served honorably as second lieutenant in the u.s. army and was a long time member and past member of the walk that -- waukesha rotary club. hewrote sat in -- he wrote novels set in waukesha. don was a staple in the waukesha community. don succeeded his father, karl, as president of the waukesha bank, a role he held from 1969 to 1994. don is credited with modernizing the operations of the bank, and computerizing operations in 1968. one of the first banks to do so. . in 2004 his son became the third generation of the family who serve as president of the bank. don will also be remembered for his deep involvement in politics. he served as chairman of the waukesha county republican party for 30 years. from 1979 to 1989, and again from 1993 to 2013. don was one of th

and you mentioned the don reagan episode was mrs. reagan essentially a de facto chief of staff to the president. in some ways. i think that's a good way to describe it, you know in the first term they had what was called the troika it was an ungainly situation where you had a chief of staff james baker who he himself didn't know the reagan's. well, he told me he got the job because nancy wanted him to have the job. deaver michael deaver the deputy chief of staff who i mentioned and edwin mease counselor or the president the most ideological of the three. but william clark who was one of the president's national security advisors would later say in an oral history that i read the real troika was baker deaver and nancy. and she would if she thought somebody wasn't serving the president very well. she would do what she could. make sure that person disappeared she is one of the reasons that ronald reagan went through a half dozen national security advisors. so when they would go upstairs in the evening, and that door was closed. it was j

this was mr hancock�*s reaction at the time. i don�*t understand. you're speechless? iam.ssible in these circumstances. now after his indiscretion, there has been support from ministers and downing street. i think the secretary- of state has said everything he needs to say on this. he's apologised. and the prime minister- is backing his secretary of state and considers the matter closed. and the prime minister is showing no sign of sacking him. presidentjoe biden has told the afghan president ashraf ghani — on a visit to washington — that the afghan people must decide theirfuture. but he also said us support for afghanistan would continue, despite the us military withdrawal. the visit by ashraf ghani and his former political rival abdullah abdullah comes as taliban forces have escalated fighting in recent weeks, seizing control of dozens of districts. this was what mr biden had to say about ongoing us involvement in the country: the partnership between afghanistan and the united states is not ending. it is going to be sustained and you know, our trips may be leaving but su

mike schmidt, take us through what you reported today in "the new york times" about don mcgahn, and his wife, mrscally, as you were laying out, they found out about this three years after the fact, so this happened in february of 2018. it's a period of time that we now know that the fbi and the justice department were looking at a range of folks and a range of different leak investigations. it could be related to that. it could be related to something else. but it takes three years for them to find out about this, to find out the fact that the government had access to their personal information. and as you were saying, the biggest problem here with all of this is a problem of, well, based on what we know, and we don't know everything about this came about, but the biggest problem that we do know is the problem of perception. that this is exactly what donald trump wanted. it was in a period of time in which donald trump was calling mcgahn a liar and a leaker. he was very upset about reports that mcgahn had told mueller about the attempts to fire mueller. he tried to get mcgahn two weeks before the

don mcgahn as a result of this testimony. so that's going to be. interesting >> and i know mr. weisman was invoked by name during the testimony himself. which i'm sure was a comfortable situation from it. he's right in the middle of this stuff. >> yeah, we're going to get right to that, rachel. >> all right, lawrence. thank you. >> thank you. as i said, it was two years, two years ago, the judiciary committee subpoenaed trump white house counsel don mcgahn to testify about what he had already testified about in interviews with special counsel robert mueller, whose investigation of russia's interference in the 2016 election to help donald trump had also become an investigation of obstruction of justice by donald trump. because of donald trump's interference with the mueller investigation itself. two years after that subpoena was issued, and after fighting the subpoena in court, don mcgahn finally agreed to testify to the house judiciary committee last friday, under the condition basically that not be on tv. and so, the hearing was held behind closed doors on friday and the trans

reappeared 15 minutes later to see don mcgahn was being, quote, somewhat difficult, and that he was only cooperating some of the time. that was only 15 minutes later. but apparently mrows, and at the conclusion of today's testimony, chairman nadler told reporters that don mcgahn shed new light on several troubling events. another of the few lawmakers that was present inside closed-door session today confirmed that don mcgahn detailed the repeated pressure he got put under by former president trump and the obstructive acts that he witnessed. those were laid out in the mueller report as potential instances of felony obstruction of justice. mueller said in the presentation of his report under questioning from congress that no currently sitting president could be prosecuted, could be indicted for those crimes, but a former president could be indicted for crimes like that. that was part of the reason why the record had to be created in the mueller report of trump's behavior, including witnesses' recollections of his behavior so that that could be preserved in case of future prosecution. well, the statute of limitations on those potential crimes laid out in mueller's repo

mr. trump, who knows everything about everything, allen weissenberg, the chief financial officer, don, ivanka, and eric. those are your five. >> i think he could have added jeff. >> exactly. that's the other person. but let me press you, john, and say what happens if those tax returns, which this grand jury probe got, this one cy vance actually won. what if they say they interpret things as fraudulent, and the trump folks say, look, this was signed off at the time. the government of new york and the federal government had that information at the time. it's new to the prosecutor, but it's not new to the tax authorities. what if they say, look, this was all signed off on before. >> weisselberg as cfo, one of his responsibilities is what happens at banks. there are two different venues for this information. the bank is getting information, and the value of these properties is being inflated for the purpose of the loan. the irs is only getting the information that says the properties are valued at this amount. which might be lower. so that, it would be a complex mathematical analysis to compare t

bill barr if i had a chance to sit down with him, which by the way, don, he declined to sit with me several times for my book. okay, mrmer attorney general, you knew this was all bs like you said, why did you embrace it for months leading up to the election, when the public was impressionable, why did you fan the flames, why did you go on n pchlpr and tell falsehoods air? why did you come on cnn and lie to wolf blitzer about the big lie? this is spin control by bill barr but it's not even effective because it's so easy to refute the nonsense he's trying to put out now. >> why didn't he do it when he had a bigger megaphone, and now it's over. john, barr first finally admitted there was no widespread election fraud right before he resigned. after that, jon karl yelled at barr, saying "you must hate trump," referring to himself in the third person. trump didn't understand what an actual attorney general was and barr certainly obliged. >> of course. he saw the attorney general as his own personal lawyer, the justice department as his own team of hatchet men, as elie says, the military as "my generals." what you see, and h

don mcgahn today. chairman nadler made following statement. he said mr. mcgahn testified at length to an extremely dangerous period in our nation's history in which president trump increasingly unhinged and fearful of his own liability attempted to obstruct the mueller investigation at every turn. mr. mcgahn was clearly distressed by president trump's refusal to follow his legal advice again and then and he shed new light on several troubling events today. i know i can't tell us some things, but what can you characterize for us? >> this was a good day for democracy. long time in the coming, you know we subpoenaed him, the judiciary committee subpoenaed him in april of 2019. but here we finally came to the point where we were able to continue our coequal branch of government, our oversight responsibility. i found mr. mcgahn to be forthcoming. certainly the testimony he went through was troubling. he brought to life volume ii and his pardon in volume ii of the mueller report, the extraordinary chaos in that white house, the pressure on him over and over aga

bill barr if i had a chance to sit down with him, which by the way, don, he declined to sit with me several times for my book. okay, mrrmer attorney general. you knew this was all b.s. why did you embrace it for months leading up to the election when the public was still impressionable? why did you go on npr and lie so that npr after the interview had to issue an article. why did you go in front of congress and lie about the big lie? why did you come on cnn and lie to wolf blitzer about the big lie? this is spin control by bill barr, but it's not even effective because it's so easy to refute the nonsense he's trying to put out now. >> why didn't he do it when he actually had a bigger megaphone, and now it is over. john, barr first -- well, he first finally admitted there was no widespread election fraud right before he resigned. after that, jon karl reports that the former president yelled at barr, saying, you must hate trump. >> third person. >> yeah, refers to himself in the third person. is that more proof that trump saw the attorney general as his own personal attorney? he didn't understand what an actual attorney

mr. elie honig, former federal prosecutor. elie, good to see you. thank you, sir. so, don mcgahn is confirming this. this was his quote.pped by the request for him to fire the special counsel robert mueller, mid-investigation. this is obstruction 101, no? >> yeah. perturbed and trapped are really understatements. i mean, this is the single-most flagrant instance of obstruction of justice laid out in the entire-448 pages of the mueller report. donald trump instructed don mcgahn, his hand-picked white house counsel, to fire robert mueller, mid-investigation. now, luckily for donald trump, don mcgahn had enough common sense to sort of blow him off, and hope that this little temper tantrum blew over. but it didn't. he kept coming back to mcgahn saying get it done. and eventually, trump told mcgahn i need you to lie about this and i need you to make a false document about this, don. i don't care how strongly you want to try to defend donald trump on, well, he has constitutional powers as a president. no president has a power to instruct somebody to create a false document that is obstruction of justice. >> okay. and so, now

don taft -- john tefft. from what you have seen and heard about this meeting, was it a success or not? mr. tefft: i think it is too early to say. i think what the president was trying to do was to lay a base, he was trying to establish a diplomatic work with which to deal with the russians they would i think the president -- russians. i think the president spoke candidly to put in about an array of issues, but i think we are not going to know for three to six months. which was a carefully scripted, diplomatic strategy which started last week the g7 summit, continued through the nato summit, then culminated today, with the hope that there will be something there. i was encouraged to see that there was a group eating on cyber. no guarantees -- group meeting on cyber. no guarantees there. from the statements both of the presidents made, there were some tough words exchanged. that said, it was businesslike, putin called it effective, constructive. i think we will have to see. it is too early to say how much success we will have. last point, there is a lot of problems that obviously exist in th

mr. vance's office and continues to work at the trump organization. do you think he'll remain loyal to trump? >> things change, don, when you find yourself on the other end of an indictment. i've seen plenty of cases where i worked where somebody swore, i'm not cooperating, i'm not interested, but when you show up with an indictment, that can change minds pretty quickly. weisselberg has a little bit of a history here. he cooperated somewhat with the federal government back in the hush money payments case. the southern district of new york gave him an immunity deal. meaning, we give you your testim -- give us your testimony, we won't charge you. they didn't end up charging anybody but michael cohen based on this investigation. so he sort of cooperated with the feds, and whether that's a positive or negative indicator as to whether he'll cooperate with state authorities, i guess, remains to be seen. >> that's what i was going to ask, do you think he's looking at michael cohen and saying, there's a lesson there. >> he could be. donald trump has no problem letting people around him take the fall for things. he cut bai

i thought about don mcgahn and his note taker, annie dickerson. did mr. rosen memorialize what mr. >> we've been told that the justice department is being cooperative in terms of handing over records, but in terms of the emails, for example, between meadows and rosen and rosen and his deputy, rich donahue, they're very terse. there's not a lot of detail. rosen does not give anything away. he doesn't say these things are insane or i'll get on it. he's trying to be as neutral as possible. all of the investigators are trying right now to interview mr. rosen and get more information out of him and this is where the current justice department under merrick garland becomes very, very important. it is up to them to determine how much cooperation jeff rosen can give with the investigators because he's going to be talking about justice department equities. he's going to be talking about things that pertain possibly to the january 6th investigations and he's going to be talking about things possibly that pertain to executive privilege. so, it's going to be up to merrick garland and his teams

who has become a rolell model as white house chief of staff don reagan who was consequently incompetent and was fired by reagan. he earned mrs reagan's ire understandably and yet his own staff and much less his chief of staff. at the end reagan took responsibility himself. the arguments about whether reagan knew about it or not, he said he didn't and he wrote in his diaries he was mad at oliver north. he gave reagan a briefing on this deal and the logs at camp david didn't show all over north going going there to brief ronald reagan. but it's a black eye on his administration. he had good intentions of freeing the hostages and the hostages were being tortured. no one profited from the iran-contra. it was wrong and reagan took his lumps and it is something that needs to be considered when you consider all the aspects of his presidency because i remember the time 1986 when his popularity, 65 approval raiding down to 45% approval raiding in a matter of days because of a controversy over the iran-contra. that certainly cost a lot of people their jobs and it was the month-long debate here in washington and in the united states be

says, the president said he wants don mcgahn to write a tloert the file for our records, something beyond a press statement to demonstrate the reporting was inaccurate. did mr. porter convey to you that the president wanted you to write a letter for records? answer, i don't know if he used the word for our records, but that is consistent with what he was telling me the president wanted. so it was consistent with your understanding that the president wanted a formal written snamt answer, yes, yeah. question, according to mr. porter's statements, president trump also referred to you during that conversation as, quote, a lying bastard. did mr. porter convey that to you when you spoke to him? answer, not that i recall, no. i think i learned about that one once the mueller report was released. question, and what was your reaction when you learned that? answer, disappointing. question, why? >> answer, well, because it's not true. question, why isn't it true? answer, because i am not a lying bastard. question, what was your understanding of why the president said that then? answer, you'd have to ask him. i was disappointed to read in the report that the president

host: on the media world we live in, don on twitter was questioning, what is mr.er's opinion on news verse opinion like on fox or cnn. guest: in hopes, i made the case that fox is moving right and they reduced the hours of news and that is measurable. as a newscast on one side, a top show on the other end fox has fewer newscast and more talk. fox has fewer bureaus, less of a news infrastructure group, not as many people -- i think that a bad thing for conservatives and the gop because we need more news coverage from fox in order to let conservative america know what is going on in a way that is trustworthy. i think this is an issue across the media landscape. cnn has programs that are like mine that our discussion programs, analysis programs and we have a lot of newscasts or easy correspondence in the field doing life reporting. we have a mix of that and it is certainly true in the trump years, we leaned more on perspectives on point of view, sometimes on commentary, you think about all of the anchors now, they look straight to the camera and deliver monologues, t

don mcgahn to write a letter to the file for our records. wanted something beyond a statement to demonstrate the reporting was inaccurate. did mr. porter convey to you the president wanted you to write a letter for records? answer, i don't know if he used the word for records, but that is consistent with what he was telling me, the president wanted. question, because i am not a lying bastard. >> question, what was your understanding of why the president said that then? >> you'd have to ask him. >> i was disappointed through reading the report the president called me a lying bastard because i am a lying bastard. why do you think you called you that? you'd have to ask him. nobody is going to ask him. it's becoming more and more clear it really seems like nobody is going to ask, him not unless he is going to potentially face criminal charges for obstruction of justice in which case prosecutors might talk to him than. and get his answer to that and many other questions. so far, he's never been questioned. that hasn't been in the cards. there is also this, again, the same transcript we got today about the kind of lawyer president tru

don. >>> republican-controlled state legislatures around the country not only putting new restrictions on voting but increasingly imposing their will on cities and counties run by democrats. let's discuss now. cnn senior political analyst mr. ron brownstein is here. good evening to you, sir. let's dive into your new analysis. republican-controlled states escalating their offensive against democratic-controlled cities. tell us what's happening. >> yeah. i mean, you know, there's been a general lurch to the right this year in red states on a whole variety of issues. you mentioned voting, abortion, guns, transgender rights, and part of that is an upsurge in republican-controlled legislatures and governors overriding decisions in democratic-controlled cities and counties, particularly across the sunbelt on a whole range of issues. you have states like florida and georgia and texas that are trying to make it impossible for cities to cut their police budgets. you see in states like texas and georgia, the state legislature and governor specifically outlaw mechanisms that some of their largest counties use to increase voter turnout. we've seen even in a state like montana, now with unified republican control, they're overriding t

mr. weiselberg to flip to basically build a case against the trump organization, donald trump himself, and his sons donrganization, that's what sources are telling us. weiselberg said no, i don't have information to help you do that, and that's where this thing turned on him. at least that's what we're going to hear more about that when the trump organization puts out its statement, but that's kind of an interesting set of circumstances. they are also going to argue this , neil and this is kind of key. the irs allows a lot of carve- outs on perks. education, medical stuff is usually allowed. it doesn't, rarely, do d. a.'s bring tax criminal cases on perk s like cars and things like that. that's what it comes down to with mr. weiselberg. apparently there was tuition paid for his kids, he a car, he had an apartment, by the way, every business has apartments all around the city and people use them, and your employees tax bills, this is why the irs doesn't go crazy on this and it's clearly never really a criminal charge, and i think that's why weiselberg did not cooperate, he thinks that this is a lousy ca

president donald trump's white house counsel, don mcgahn, was distressed by his bosses response to the miller expense ticket -- mueller investigation. quote, mrgann testified at length to an extremely dangerous period in our nation's history in which president trump increasingly unhinged and fearful of his own liability attempted to obstruct the molar investigation at every turn. new york representative -- said in a statement. the closed-door testimony came as a part of the investigation into trump's obstruction of the investigation of russian interference in the 2016 election. those were two stories being talked about in the news this morning. we want to know what your top public policy story is. let's go to head from tampa bay, florida on the republican line. good morning. caller: good morning. host: go ahead. caller: i want to talk about -- let's go to portland, oregon when everybody was rioting, burning the town down, and destroying businesses. they were mainly democrats, antifa, and other political parties that i will not mention about because of the simple reason i did not believe there is a difference between white, black people, yello

mr. turner. >> chairman, chairman cooper, ranking members, thank you for the opportunity to testify today on the rules-based space order. i'm grateful for the opportunity to testify alongside don hill, lieutenant general and jonathan moore. like others i have submitted a longer statement for the record. it is incredibly appropriate that we're leaving on may 5th, the 60th anniversary of astronaut alan shepard. this flight was the first step that gradually led to astronauts orbiting the earth, landing on the moon and today, continuing in continuous orbit around our planet. this flight took place in a time when there were only two countries placing satellites and humans in orbit and also took place in a time when regional outer space was just beginning to be developed. the implementation of arms control was one of the arms control clair verification and compliance which i am representing today. in that capacity, along with our state and our dod colleagues, we are leading efforts for the development and implementation for voluntary to enhance the safety and security of outer space. in general, with longstanding bipartisan policy and as reflected recently in the 2020 national space

mr. tester: last month four well-qualified, none controversial nomination were unanimously voted out of the veterans' affairs committee. unanimously vote out of the veterans' affairs committee which senator blackburn sits on. here's who they are. don recommendy, a veteran. nominated as v.a. deputy secretary, v.a. deputy secretary. that's second in command. if senator blackburn wants quicker action from the v.a. on toxic ex-sporure, maybe senator blackburn shouldn't hold that nominee to the number-two position of the department. the nominee is specifically tasked with carding the v.a.'s work with the defense department, which includes issues like, guess what, toxic supposure. but that's all right. we'll leave him sitting at home. we've leave the veterans out in the cold. then there's patricia ross, nominated to be assistant secretary for congress affairs. so if senator wants more information for the v.a. legislation on how much it costs, maybe the senator shouldn't hold the nominee tasked with getting that information from the v.a. to congress. but she is. and then there's maryann donaghy nominated for qibl protection. whistle-blowers regularly come to us with waste, fraud, and abuse. folks love to condemn the v.a. we heard a littl
