when i began this investigation i stopped listening to npr and started listening to fundamentalist radio stations. i heard a lot of political coverage and it went like this. hillary clinton is a demon. data o'rourke is the son of satan. this was on the news broadcasts which was factually difficult to demonstrate. that i started mapping out radio networks across the country and found that they represented hundreds of stations more or less concentrated in swing states where in many places they outnumbered npr stations, news coverage for example and in many cases had stronger signals. in a place like oklahoma if you go from town to town and always picking up one of the signals as you drive from one place to another, it fades in and fades out, i learned the three of these networks representing hundreds of stations were run by members of a shadowy group called the council for national policy and before i begin this research i haven't heard of it so i started digging into it and i learned leadership included the devosd family from michigan. and mysteriously after the election, betsy becomes ac

npr was the first to report his resignation today. and i do want to underscore today per npr's report, quote, morrison is expected to leave his post imminently. meaning he's gone, which is important because his scheduled testimony for the impeachment proceedings is tomorrow morning. so tim morrison, a senior director at the national security council with spaubt for europe and russia tonight resigning in advance of his testimony tomorrow morning. now, john bolton himself recently fired donald trump's national security advisor. it's always seemed interesting to me that bolton was ousted as national security advisor basically the same time donald trump was forced to relent and let that military aid finally go through. that all happened september 11th, september 12th. john bolton himself i think is viewed as a wild card, what he would be willing to say, what indeed he was part of. there are mysteries about john bolton's behavior including why he wasn't on the call between president trump and president zelensky when people like the secreta

these included cnn, cbs, nbc, pbr, pbs, the -- npr, adam schiff, rosie ecodonnell and the late john mccainonnell. of course, some liberal commentators not buying trump's explanation and some anger on the right as well. >> what are the chances donald trump has not seen that video? that is code language for his followers that he hasn't condemned the video. >> how easy for all of you judging me that i'm offended and upset by the video. a member of your family has continued to have this happen over and over and over again. howard: but a few pundits on the right said this video was harmless, this was payback for the taunting of conservatives. so let me get to the part about two wrongs don't make a right when kathy griffin who's also in this video staged a spectacle with a severed trump-like head, i denounced her. when shakespeare in central park portrayed a trump-like figure was killed, i denounced that too. trump's miami golf club was promoted by provocateurs, one said it was clearly satirical. here's the thing: trump, the video character, opened fire in the church of fake news. there were pew

she cohosts the npr politics podcas hello to both of you. it is politics monday.e lead still is, we heard the announcement yesterday, u.s. troops went in on the raid and killed the leader of isis, clearly, there are national security implications here, but politically speakg, what does this mean for the president? >> politically, this is a win for president trump in a moment where he has not had a lot. every dahe's getting a drip, drip of bad headlines relathm to the impet inquiry and he was taking a lot of h ftm members of his own party on the syria policy. now he has this thing that is universally a positive. is it the kind of thing that can broadly sway public opinion? the way the white house is treating this, it is like they want it to be his bin laden moment. they sent out this picture of president inhe situation room reminiscent of president obama and the situation room during the bin laden raid. but it's different. baghdadi is not this outsized figure in the american psyche. isis, although frightening and concerning two people, it is not 9/11. american affe

multiple sources tell npr that andrew, a deputy assistant secretary of state for iraq and iranse will replace morrison. >>an joining us now from washington, white house reporter for axios, good morning to you, you heard tim morrison being described as a conservative hawk there. he is stepping down from his role in the white house. what kind of a signal does that send about impeachment, that investigators could hear from himin today, does the fact thate is leaving allow him to be maybe more honest and open about everything, than he might otherwise, i think more forth coming i guess is the right word, under oath after all. >> that is exactly what a lot of people, i've been on the hill, for the past few weeks, following this impeachment madness really, and a lot of people on the economy, members as well as staffer, are saying that his decision to step down ahead of his testimony today, it definitely is not a good sign forde republicans. that it does show, and npr did say it was unclear whether he was asked to leave or if he resigned, but regardless, it does free them up a bit, in ways th

according to npr he told his caucus the trial could last as long as 6 to 8 weeks.enator, there's been a lot of speculation how mitch mcconnell would handle a trial. you hear 6 to 8 weeks you expect that to be a pretty meaty thing. what is your confidence level if this gets to the senate, this is going to be a thoroughly trial? >> my confidence level is very low but the american people need to insist on this. i mean, mitch mcconnell will do whatever he can get away with. and i think it's really important for us not -- i wouldn't want anybody i know to be as cynical or malevolent as mitch mcconnell is. but we need to be as struteemgic as he is. and he's been strategic all along when the comes to judges, climate, when it comes to guns. and he's going to do exactly the same thing here. >> i want to ask you about your campaign for president, the fourth democratic debate held earlier this week. there was a discussion about medicare for all. you said it would be a mistake for democrats to sign-on to this plan. you talked to somebody from politico. you said just listen to

impeachment inquiry has risen, how people feel about him overall has notudged. >> also, look at our nprur" marist poll, 58% of the people said theyd woke to see the president eats fate decided at the ballot box rather than thent impeach process. i think that tell us that even though we saw a big sng among independents saying they support this impeachment inquiry, i think it tel tells you how cauts americans are, and while democrats in the last coue of weeks have won over independentp and the idents say the phone call was unacceptable, two irds of the people in the poll said what the preisident did n investigating the political rival w unacceptable, but how the democrats want the process to play out, democrats have a walk a fi line in impeachable facts. ng>> could it swiack down by independents? >> absolutely it could. but there's a little ceiling for independents. having them at 50, 55% is ut as good as democrats can do, but it's important becense indepe had tracked with since president ttookvery issue office, and why that's really important is republicans need to win a greater share of

and tamara keith from npr. she also co-hosts the "npr politics pcast." hello to both of you.tics monday. tamara, you were listening to senator sanders. what did you think?de >> senator s did what many of the democratic candidates have done, pretty much all of them, which is cri the president's decisions, criticize the way president trump handled syria and the relationship with the kurds, but didn't really offer much clearer view of how he would fix the problem, and that's essentially been what all of the democratic candidat have been doing beause it's much easier to criticize the president than to get into the nitty gritty detls ofni how you solvwthe morasch is syria. >> and the fact most democrats like bernisanders argued shouldn't have gone into iraq in the first place, want to bring troops out of the middle east. elizabeth warren in the debate the other nigntht said i o get all the troops out of the middle east. to answer your question, what do you do about syria, that gets rite little complicated, which is what being president is about, it's complicated. >> woodruff: he w

"washington post" at 49%, the npr, pbs at 49%.nipiac at 45%, and it's also important to point out in the recent poll, the npr poll showed independent support jumped 19 points since late september, and you know, president trump did have quite a bit of independent support in 2016. he needs it this time around, too, doesn't he? >> yeah, i think there's a sense in the white house that you can win by rallying your base, and i just don't think the math is there for that. so the categories where mr. trump, those independent voters suburban women, where he did, white women where he did, you know, decently, fairly well in the 2016 election, are categories where we see support for impeachment growing, in particularly strong ways. that should be a problematic sign for him as he looks to 2020. we have a long way to go, and things can happen. >> there's two different conversations about these polls, there's the impact on 2020 but then there's also the conversation about whether or not the democrats will have the will to impeach, and public opi

so, the project began in 2008 when i was contacted by a radio show host who had an npr radio program the people's pharmacy. he said all these patients are contacting me complaining about their drugs either strange side effects or lack of affect. he was concerned if he'd taken those complaints to the fda and their response was it might be psychosomatic because of the patientif thepatients are change generic to another or from a brand to generic and cfl a different color or size they may have a reaction. but, the radio show host didn't buy into that and he posed the question to me what is wrong with the drugs. and that question launched me on a decade-long reporting odyssey. though i started with the patients and the doctors, by reporting led me to other continents. it led me to india, china, africa, as i began to probe what was happening in the distant manufacturing plants making the drugs. and what i learned is that there is endemic fraud. often highly concealed and difficult to discern that many are seeking quality data or altering that they've been submitted to regulators in order

here is the npr station.ar types of graffiti, free hong kong and no hate without no region -- no reason in english and chinese. more graffiti on nathan road. we burn, you burn with us. that is a common mantra throughout this for months. we had a number of different petrol bombs thrown by protesters. oftentimes targeting companies with china linked or perceived to have taken sides against the protesters. we had xiaomi's store, the mainland chinese mobile phone operator, one of their stores was attacked here as well as a snack marked. the chinese medicine company here had a shop satellite as well as you should annoy you -- ashinoya operated on franchise basis. a number of fires that police responding with water can and tear gas. the reason we are on this corner mosque.d me is the main it was not targeted, but police cannons blue dye water firing to disperse protesters and some of it went into the compound. that raised concerns and anger by the local muslim community that police actions infringed on their mosque

according to npr, cal fire determined in join that pg&e equipment sparked 17 wildfires across north california in 2017. as of june this year, according to associated press, they agreed to pay a billion dollars to local governments in california for their negligence. this goes way back. i mean, over in september 9th, 2010, a gas line blew up in san bruno and killed eight people. and so there's a track record of this. from my personal experience, my care providers found a letter down my hallway this week. i have stairs leading up to my unit. there's no law forcing my landlord to make a ramp for me so i can't check my mail. fortunately my care provider found this letter and i looked at it and read it and it said that pg&e was going to cut off my power in 10 days and charge me to turn it back on because they had not been able to get into my unit to do a routine power check. this was not an emergency. it was not anything. this is just a routine check. i e-mailed pg&e and said i'm a wheelchair user. i can't let you in very easily. i need help. there are multiple people in my building who are able bo

i had a similar situation with an interview with npr where they edited my interview.hen i said adam schiff lied to the american people, they didn't like that. the same thing senator johnson experienced with chalk todd. it's why the american people are become so much more sceptical of the mainstream media. at the end of the day hoosiers in indiana are telling me they largely dismiss these types of media narratives and they want to cut through it have much. trish: congressman, it's good to see you, thanks for your time. member kanye west lecturing the press on the president. he's our president. he has to be able to fly his plane and have the best factories. we have to bring jobs into america. trish: the hip hop artist is defending and promoting the president. he spoke in utah telling thousands of people that quote it's mental slavery to make political decisions based on race. also tonight, l.a. begging its governor to declare a state of emergency over itself-created homeless crisis. tomi lahren is here to make a plea to president trump. she says he's the only person who

against impeachment and now the numbers, the cnn poll virtually half and half for impeachment, and an npr/marist poll the other day, half and half for impeachment inquiry, that is not good. those are not the way the numbers should be going if you're in support of keeping the president where he is. but we do need to get more information. i do expect we should hear from the whistle-blower, but any attempt by the democrats to get ahead of themselves and set expectations that they cannot meet, that will completely backfire. and the problem is they're taking joe biden down in the process because he is going to have to answer for what he did with ukraine as we move further in this. >> he didn't do anything with ukraine. he didn't do anything with ukraine. he was following what the official u.s. government position was, what the position of the imf was, what the position of our western allies was at the time, viktor shokin, the prosecutor in ukraine was corrupt. he was not investigating corruption. he was not doing anything to benefit his son. you can have an argument about what his son was doin

[laughter] so how about jlo? what was -- how did that happen? >> i was called about a month or so ago by jennifer lopez, and she said she would like to meet me and introduce her fiance e, alex rodriguez. [laughter] so they came to chambers, and we had a very nice visit. she mostly wanted to ask if i had any secret about a happy marriage. but now a-rod is traveling with her to concerts all over the world.

she co-hosts the "npr politics podcast." welcome you two podcasters. let's talk about impeent.esident, when this whole thing first broke, said there was no quid pro quo. then these texts come out, now a second whistleblower has come forward, saying it looks quite clear that therewas a quid pro quo. but it seems that the president's defense of this whole call and this intersection with the ukrainians hasn't changed very much. what is he trying to do here?e >> and his defenders, at least a few of them that are going out on television, defending the president, they're not talking about what the president actually did or his intentions, whether it was with ukraine or askihe chinese investigate, they're making the case that this is -- we should be looking into corruption of the bidens, we should be looking at the 2016 campaign. it's mud i didn't think thek th waters as much possible in order to get, i think, folks who are not truly partisan or people who are just sort of paying attention to this whole affair to say, uing h,ugh, that's just politicians, biden doing his thing, trump's

npr, pbs, marist published a poll saying 52% of americans approve of starten an impeachment inquiry.or office. as you might have seen, trump was not pleased with that, not one bit. harry antonin is here for us what do the new polls tell us? >> before the inquiry, there was a monmouth poll that showed 51% thought it would be a bad inquiry. those numbers flipped around overnight. it's polls from wos as well, and there's a clear majority of americans supporting it, so the idea that it would by political boole for democrats doesn't seem to be borne out. if you look at the average of the polls, it's more of more of a split. >> i just want to clear something up for the president, but also i think some viewers probably don't know, the president's very angry with this fox poll, because they believes, i'm imagining, that it's a poll of fox viewers, so it seems like a betrayal, so fox network should not -- >> this is a poll of voters, and the fact that fox news is a pretty about polling outlet. they pretty much nailed the national house vote back in 2018. they're showing basically what everybo

. >> the first thing you trust here is trump approval rating based on the npr pps newshour harris poll. trump approval rating 44% disapprove, 53%, you trusted, what does it tell us? >> the 44 was approved. the thing about donald trump's approval rating, i keep hearing people say either this time is different, they are really going to do it, the straw that broke the camel's back. we have a barn full of straws, things that were supposed to be different. the other thing is people say as well, why don't the president's numbers fall? the thing is for something to fall they've got to rise first. you are looking at a president that has had the narrowest trading range of any president in the history of polling. i think we are at 354 major credible national polls tested his job approval rating and in 353 out of 354, all but one, his numbers have been upside down with higher disapproval than approval. the thing is that has never happened. the one, the first fox news back in february 2017 the president had a 48% approve, 47% disapprove. every other one of those had been upside down. normally in t

. -- at npr. take a look at these graphics. five polls from the last week.in the corner. e majority of americans in all five polls show support for the imachment process. amy, when you look at those numbers, all of those represent an increase. why are we seeing those now? amy: it is important to understand the differeore between sung the impeachment inquiry and supporting impeachment itself. it is really hovering around 4 or 47%. that is important because theret are people ore saying i support an inquiry but not necessarily the idea of donald trump b being impeachthe house. that is anmportant thing to appreciate. also in the polls we are not rprisingly seeing people taking to their corners. and the presidents of approval ratings -- and the president's approval ratings are not budging pretty much at all. the president and how people feel about himbuverall has not ed. >>bu 5 of people on our po said they would like to see his fate decided at the ballotox rather than through the impeachment process. i think that tells zero although we suck -- i think that tells
