it's slightly more complicated than that but that was laid out by reuters and the new yorker. he had to go. he quit the night the new yorker article came out about him using the position to make himself potentially hundreds of millions of dollars. it was amazing. right after he quit the white house went through this remarkable exercise where they tried to pretend that carl never had that white house job in the first place. so what was there to quit? the press release announcing he had that job, i can't see a press release. can you? this doesn't say that. really weird. in that new yorker article, the one that ended carl icahn's brief career as a public official, we learned how scott pruit got his job. when he visited trump tower to discuss the top job the president elect concluded the interview by instructing pruit to walk two blocks up down to meet carl icahn. trump told scott pruit quote carl has some questions for you. scott goes up, meets with him and carl gets nominated on december 8th. the following day carl i scahn says i've spoken to scott pruit four or five times and i

the new yorker magazine doesn't love chick-fil-a. the re restraunt brand creepy. in the largest city in the nation, who has been majority christian, there's a restaurant owned by christians and that is offensive says the new yorker magazine. it's creepy. even an infiltration. and every other corner has a halal cart and if you don't celebrate it, you're racist. has there ever been a less intellectual class that our country does? mark steyn joins us with a verdict on that. >> well, i have studied the new yorker. i haven't read it in a long while. i can say this piece would never have run under harold ross or tina brown in the good old days. >> tucker: it's true. >> this sentence i love. this guy is upset because "the restaurant's corporate purpose still begins with the words to glorify god." because god is so 2013. anthony kennedy ruled that god is out-moded and now you cannot -- it's offensive to be served a chicken sandwich made by a guy that believes in the sand definition of marriage as barack obama and hillary clinton did ten years

new yorkers and international buyers went just crazy for this. taylor: how come? james: this is a great question. one of the easiest answers is this was a condominium as opposed to a co-op. so a co-op is a building that is actually owned cooperatively. it is sort of an abstract concept. most importantly, co-ops generally do not let international buyers in or people who want to use these apartments as -- they also don't allow people to buy and sell. there is a huge vetting process. the condominium -- carol: it has to go before the co-op board if you are accepted as a buyer. james: completely. with a condominium, if you have the cash, you can buy. and that is extremely appealing

the new yorker magazine by contrast does not love chick-fil-a. cause the restaurant creepy. why? "the brand's arrival feel sick and in in no small part because of its pervasive christian traditionalism." think about this. and th largest city in the country, a country that has been majority christian for its entire t history as a country, there is now a restaurant that is owned by christians and that is offensive says the new yorkev magazine. it's creepy. in fact, it's infiltration. meanwhile every other corner in midtown has a cart from a man who barely speaks english, but it's diversity. has any country ever had a less impressive intellectual class than ours currently does? mark steyn has a studied history of the intellectual class and he joins uses tonight. what's the verdict on that? >> i haven't read the new yorker in a long while, but i can safely say this piece would never have run under harold ross or tina brown and the good old daysys. he is upset because the restaurant's corporate purpose begins with the words to glorify god. it still beg

donald trump's various tweets regarding syria and russia in the last few days and this is what new yorkers said about how they interpret the different messages from donald trump. tribe's twitter page grabs the attention of the world but when trump tells russia to get ready for american missiles and then calls for a stop to the arms race then blames the democrats for bad relations with moscow the world starts to get a little bit confused we decided to ask new yorkers what they think about the president's social media activity should. show what order do you think they came out in. bottom one first. top one secondly middle one last actually it was that one was first in that home a second that was third russia vows says i'll say this is first me you're correct that is the first one awesome ok oh i'm. second would be this much of the babbling . nope and so our relationship with restive worse now and then much of the ok got it i'm thinking one two three was sort of actually it's one two three if you were in russia you really in the russian foreign ministry how would you react to this what how wo

that's according to "the new yorker."adar online, a tabloid also owned by ami, published a story outlining the deal, which included a memo, an e-mail, and a report of a lie detector test which they say the doorman took after he made hi claims. the tabloid says he passed that test. ami, which owns "the national enquirer," says the story was buried because it wasn't true. as you've pointed out, remember, the head of ami is david pecker, well-known friend of trump's. the publisher said, ami categorically denies that donald trump or michael cohen had anything to do with its decision not to pursue a story about a love child, that it determined was not credible. it's important no note as you did as well, cnn or any other media outlet at this point has not proved the doorman's claims. but it speaks to a pattern here. this is a concept of catching and killing stories to help trump during the presidential campaign. we're league it now, we heard it with stormy daniels, and we heard it with former playboy centerfold karen mcdougal.

now, weezy may have been born in kentucky, but she was a new yorker through and through. she never backed down from a challenge, never backed away from a fight, and certainly as we all know was never afraid to speak her mind. that's what made her such a tireless and effective champion for the people of upstate and western new york. her absence will be felt not only by her staff and family and colleagues gathered here today, but also by her constituents, and all of us in the new york delegation for whom louise accomplished so much. of course, louise, the tireless fighter, was also beloved. she loved rochester. and rochester loved her. from one corner of monroe county to the other, she was simply and belovedly known as louise. when i first ran for the senate, louise volunteered to drive me around her rochester district and introduce me to her constituents. we had worked together for many years in the house, but i had never traveled with her in her district since it was far from my own in brooklyn and queens. now, i expected the usual dog and pony show, stopping to shake som

she says he acts like a republican, not a true new yorker, not far left enough for us. >> her problem is with people of color. the key to winning democratic primaries in new york is you need black voters, hispanic voters in large numbers, the dominant base of the party, she is kind of white, with team bernie. with very liberal white people, just as bernie struggles with african-american voters in the presidential primaries that is an issue for her. when you see cuomo sucking up to african-american interest groups, that is trying to head her off at the past and capitalize on her weak spot. shannon: in texas, quinnipiac poll showing democratic challenger o'rourke to current sen. ted cruz, up by 3 points, that is in the margin of error does that surprise you? and that is up 14 points. >> to cruise has a challenge, the suburbanites outside houston and four of the 10 longest cities. and college-educated people and to cruise's challenge in texas -- shannon: not as it once was. it is consistent but not 20 points. a narrower margin. those suburban voters don't like ted cruz. and they don't li

comey answered questions from david remnick, the editor of new yorker.oing to be featured oh the new yorker podcast and public radio stations around the country. here a key moment from the interview. >> he said earlier today in an interview that you don't hate the president. you don't even dislike him. i'll let that pitch go by. >> my wife asked me the same question after she saw the interview. and the answer is i dislike many of the things he does. him as a person i actually -- it's sounding odd i feerl sorry for. >> how so. >> i think -- i've said this before it's a hard thing to say. but i think he has an emptiness inside of him and a hunger for affirmation i've never seen in an adult. and i'm in the saying that to be funny. i think that he lacks external reference points. and instead of calling -- making hard decisions by calling upon a religious tradition or logic or tradition or history. it's all what will fill this hole? david joins me with more on the interview. >> i thought it was interesting one of the things james comey said to you is that the

in the latest issue of the "new yorker," dexter filkins explores the rise and rise of his royal highness prince mbs and how donald trump has hitched his wagon to this young ruler. and dexter joins me to talk about it all from new york. dexter filkins, welcome to the program. >> hi, thank you. >> so you have spent the latest addition of the "new yorker" trying to unravel the enigma that is not just mbs as he goes by, but what actually is possible in saudi arabia. just tell me as an introductory, what do you think he is going to do? what will his vision 2030 end u being? . well, i think that's a great question. i think that he is confronting the math that's kind of hanging over saudi arabia which is they -- they built their entire economy and the welfare state kind of on the idea that oil would be $100 a barrel, it's about $60 right now. so they are burning through all their savings very quickly and they're going to run out of money soon and they know that and the economy is a kind of one-trick pony. it's just oil. they don't export anything else, they import everything. so he's got to ref

like a new yorker, she never backed down from a fight. if she wanted to get something done, she dug in her heels and fought like hell for it. but as a daughter of the south, she will equally be remembered or her amazing wit, her gentle touch, her genuine friendship an both sides of the aisle. what is remarkable is that at the end of the day, when the debate concluded and the votes were taken, louise was known for sharing a laugh with her colleagues on the opposite side of the aisle. someone once described her, and i quote, a combination of southern charm and back room politics, a someone with a cigar in her mouth, she was truly larger than life. when louise came to congress, there were far fewer women in this body. she helped lead the way for so many of us who came after, breaking down barriers. so many of us owe her a debt of gratitude for the trails she blazed. as a fellow new yorker, as a fellow female member of most of all, as her friend, i know i will miss her. this body is better served for her service, and the u.s. house will certa

. >> donald trump is a new yorker. he's never stopping a new yorker. when the paper record in new york is -- he was attune to the media circles and that has followed him to washington. he may be a washington resident, but the new york roots are on display. someone like maggie has had a long relationship reporting on president trump and real estate mog mogul. she does know trump as well as anybody can at this point. when the truth is out there and you saw her story, there were several people speaking on the record in that story. so it is hard to say sources don. i will say the fact that he's so attune to the media and what has been said about his presidency is consistent. if he sees headline he doesn't like, his advisers are just shows y shosho showing him how to ignore it. they may have to contend with this down the line looking at michael cohen, russia and all the other things. and he's tweeting about james comey this week. there's a lot jam-packed on the president's leader he is. >> how do these mat tore the political story? >> house republicans who

. >> the new yorker headline from an interview you did with the publication of must last year, a conversation with maggie haberman, trump's favorite foe. does he treat you differently behind the scenes than he does on twitter? maggie: i would not discuss private conversations in one way or the other. there are a number of times that i have interviewed him and spoken with him and then his presence speaks for itself. >> does he dislike the media, do you think? maggie: no. i think he loves the media. i don't think he understands that a media-devoted government is about. this is for someone for whom the meeting was very transactional, whether it was the tabloids or gossip pages. he is unused to a press corps that is not devoted to the cult of personality. >> final question on this -- what are your thoughts on winning this award? what does it mean for you? maggie: it is a huge honor. i was really stunned and >> overwhelmed by it. when i saw that they were calling me, my immediate thought was i did not mess up a report recently, so i'm not sure why they are calling me.
