defeated him it's just that hillary clinton got a lot of his votes and obama did obama miss the broad power of trump's rhetoric to . i mean on the visit to london before the bronx it vote you write about this in your book he told then prime minister david cameron when i watch trump's rallies i think how potent his message would be from a more skilled politician it was already pretty potent by that was that he missed that actually i said that you said yeah yeah yeah no i look we understand that so you miss that to be sure but to be very clear. brock obama i think as as an african-american understood full well the power of a demagogue and the power of division and divisiveness but to pick up on some of the threatener questions i think you can overstate that there were some dramatic shift in public opinion in the united states you know again some got less votes than the republican who lost obama he was able to get the republican nomination that to me is the radicalization in american politics that he was able to defeat a very unpopular opponent and hillary clinton and i wouldn't over rea

>> obama scares me.ama. he's an arab. he is not -- >> no, ma'am, no, ma'am. he's a decent family man, citizen that i just happen to have disagreements with. >> i think mccain did the country a real service by refusing to embrace conspiracy theories and attacks on obama, and rebuking people who tried to launch those attacks. >> it's unfortunate that there were pockets of the country that pushed that way. >> i will respect him, and -- no, no, i want everyone to be respectful. >> john mccain is now so mavericky he's mavericking away from his own supporters and getting booed for it. >> he finds himself in this position having created this monster he can no longer control. there's a way to play this game so you end up with no good choices. we are watching a campaign that has maneuvered itself into kpabtkpab exactly that position. >> as the polls open from the east to the west across this country, the same picture continued to emerge, eager voters showing up before the polls even opened and in many cases lines

obama also gave the freshmen some advice. fight for it. that's it. that's the key to retaining your humani humanity, retaining who you are as a person. find the policy you are willing to lose your seat over. have an answer to the question what would you not do to win re-election. if you hold on to that one defining point about yourself, if you always know the lines you will not cross to win re-election, then your family, your friends, will always recognize the person they knew before you became a politician. that's tonight's last word, the 11th hour with brian williams starts now. >>> tonight the drum beat to release the mueller report. justice says it will be weeks not months until americans see what robert mueller found and wrote about. 8 in 10 americans want to see it. james comey's first public comments on t

it wasn't the dossier and it wasn't obama.bi first opened the russia probe because george papadopoulos bragged that he had got political dirt on hillary clinton. >> what's -- >> why is he coming up with more and more people to hate and more and more reasons to investigate if he's clean? >> at the core president trump is someone who wants to fight back, punch the opponent and over do it in some ways the reaction. he talked to republicans and said that mueller report was bs. i talked to lindsey graham. he said it was like a mini election to him. those were his words. i think when you thing about the dossier and the fact that the president isn't even acknowledging that lindsey graham said he saw the dossier and he said turn it over to the authorities and that's what happened. that's not part of this discussion and it's because president trump seizes an opportunity to make this a campaign issue. he's going on the defensive. >> it seems to me there is some sort of cleverness behind what trump's up to here. perhaps with the help wit

was -- experiment when president obama was in office. this is a reform that every member should embrace. when their party controls the white house and when it does not control the white house. so i would urge every one of my colleagues, let's get the senate back to the normal historical pattern for handling presidential nominations. let's give president trump as well as all future presidents a functional process for building their administrations. let's give the american people the government they actually elected. and let's seize this chance to do so through the bipartisan regular order that we're pursuing here both in committee and now on the floor. the status quo is unsustainable for the senate and for the country. it's unfair to this president and to future presidents of either party. it cannot stand and, mr. president, it will not stand. >> mr. president. >> [inaudible] >> i still have the floor. >> the majority leader has the floor. >> would the majority leader yield for a question? >> i move to proceed to calendar number 24, senat

kind of a like a white obama. what a story.eto raised a record $80 million in his failed senate bid against ted cruz and a lot of that money came i bet from obama supporters, and there is also the fact that he met with obama himself just a week after he lost that race to cruz according to vanity fair, so was that meeting the kissing of the ring? we don't know, we don't know anything except obama told beto according to the piece that beto should think hard about how this will affect his family and whether there is a path to victory. you will also recall who the first big celebrity to encourage beto was to run for president on a national talk show that would be oprah. >> if i can play some role in helping the country to do that, by god i'm going to do that. >> by god, when are you going to know the answer to that? >> laura: she begged obama to run basically as well. same thing. but what is the beto platform? what are his big ideas? mission control, we have a problem. >> in texas we have a problem with broadband in rural communiti

if the supreme court rules that obama care his own, we will have a plan that is far better than obama care. thank you all very much. i appreciate it. thank you thank you. [inaudible conversation] >> i greatly appreciate that she's here and she has been a tremendous representative for her country. and she is meeting tomorrow with the first lady of the united states in florida. their meeting tomorrow. >> if you look at what we are doing, you will see a commitment that few people have made. frankly, this did not have to happen in venezuela. past administrations right here should have been more forward thinking. there should never have happened in venezuela. it's a tragedy. we are fighting all over the world for countries. we are 5000, 6,000, 7000 miles away. they never did anything with respect to venezuela. past administrations allowed this to happen. i have inherited a mess. between north korea and all of the problems we have all over the world, the entire middle east, venezuela, these are things that never should have happened. they never should have allowed to get to this. but, i'll

lou: with knowledge of president obama. >> we don't know for certain. i don't see how decisions like that get made without very high level knowledge. lou: we know they were lying from jump street, clapper, brenon, comey. talking about every intelligence agency in the country had created a consensus around collusion, they were lying from the beginning because -- >> they knew we had weapons of mass destruction in that war. they did not know anything about 9/11, that did not come out until long after, my sense it is time to look hard. lou: their incompetence is one thing, i am talking about their corruption. political corruption. >> they are corrupt. lou: under obama. >> time they get cleaned out, and most important element is fbi, that is one at the en the f the day that was driving this, i hope they get in there clean house. >> i thought big reason most reporters became reporters, to ferret out this government corruption this abuse of power that that is what pentagon paper was about and watergate, and idea that almost entire media will turn a blind eye t

and the green new deal is it a winning platform for democrats in two thousand and twenty president obama's former deputy secretary of labor joins us for a look on this edition of. welcome to politicking i mean homes in for larry king china is suffering an economic slowdown and its number two leader warns that the country faces a tough struggle so what are the implications for the u.s. economy and does this mean donald trump's china policies are winning and the green new deal there's been lots of talk about it and the g.o.p. is already using it to scare voters ahead of the two thousand and twenty election but what is it and can the democratic party win with it as a platform we begin with these as i'm joined by chris lu former deputy secretary of labor during the obama administration he's now a senior fellow at the university of virginia miller center and he joins us in washington d.c. chris thank you so much for joining us my pleasure amy great so let's start with china and the chinese economy china is suffering an economic slowdown and its number two leader warns the country faces a tough

i would argue after eight years of obama many people liked president obama but they thought his economic policies created a soft economy and took away their economic prosperity. one of the reasons donald trump one is he was able to wipe away voters. the right track numbers are much higher than they have been any time since the obama administration. i could be wrong on all these things, and it could be that america wants to embrace socialism. called on things that are more popular -- that's politics. if you are talking about conservatives policies and the return to those, one is fiscal conservative. you didn't pay for this tax cut here this will hit the deficit and it already is. the tax checks that people are getting back are not what we are expecting. that was a conservative bedrock principle. you guys want along with it. i'd love to respond to that. i think both parties deserve to be horse whipped over their accounts of refrain but we will balance the budget. >> you guys controlled congress. i'm not going to push back to aggressively on this. >> we have to do a better job of restrainin

number three failure, the rise of china accelerated under obama and biden. china's aggression stretched to the south china sea, stealing u.s. and electoral property went virtually unchecked and unchallenged by the obama and biden administration. and let's not forget, benghazi and the fall of libya. a total disaster, and a tragedy. we lost the u.s. ambassador three fine americans, and then the obama-biden crew lied about the reason for the attack at the time romney was nipping at their heels in 2012. remember, that was september/october, 2012. and finally, the failed russian reset. russia's annexation of crimea it's moved to eastern ukraine which gave putin power, and a much-needed foreign policy win. i could go on and on and on. obama and biden fully embrace this new world order, and they were loved because they embraced agreements like the trans-pacific partnership and the u.n. climate accords. trump comes in and rejects both. because he believes, rightly they ceded to watch american power and decision-making too far-flung foreign bureaucracy. but biden, oh

platform we begin with these as i'm joined by chris lew former deputy secretary of labor during the obama administration he's now a senior fellow at the university of virginia miller center and he joins us in washington d.c. chris thank you so much for joining us my pleasure amy great so let's start with china and the chinese economy china is suffering an economic slowdown and its number two leader warns the country faces a tough struggle so chris i want to ask you what are the implications for the u.s. economy well look we live increasingly in a global economy right now and what happens in china and frankly what happens in europe affects what's happened united states we've seen a slowdown in the u.s. economy in the fourth quarter and many economists believe that all will continue slow in twenty nine hundred so i think it certainly behooves both countries the united states and china to resolve their trade differences that's complicated though because the they're based on serious issues regarding obviously the tariffs that the president has imposed as walls of intellectual property rights

that is what obama did.bama was great at signing bad deals that meant nothing or were terrible for the united states but it doesn't matter because when you have 90% of media coverage and do anything to make you a hero, you don't have to make good deals. we may good deals with 93% negative coverage but the results are speaking for themselves. all-time low female unemployment, all-time low african-american unemployment, all-time low hispanic unemployment, goes against the narrative. you would think with all those things, all-time high stock market, energy exploration, net exporter for the first time in history, all these things. >> gdp. >> there is not a single economic metric, not one where we are not better off today than under failed president obama. it doesn't exist. i've done that in a relocated and they won. they can't do it but they don't want to give credit where credit is due because they spent a lot of time making sure their establishment clicks are locked in place. >> i couldn't agree more and i hav

what did obama know?ow that it's in the attorney general's office, what did he know, when did he know what? everyone must be held accountable. we cannot visit mike let this happen, as donald trump says, to any other president. according to rush limbaugh, the time to act is now. he is right. take a look. >> be objective -- the objective remains to get donald trump out of office, even by driving his numbers down or impeaching him or to meeting him 2020. they aren't through trying to get rid of donald trump, they aren't through trying to overturn the election results of 2016. they are never going to finish it -- even if he is elected in 2020, they are setting up the impeachment now with all the stuff. that's why these people need to be politically defeated and pounded into the ground to the point of irrelevance. >> sean: great point. to the point of irrelevance. if we don't hold them accountable, this will happen again and again, we'll lose the country pray that serious. there's got to be constitutional repu

i think he can compete with barack obama in any level whatsoever. i worked with barack obama. describe him. and you know what's so great about him? he's an old soul. he gets history. he understands it. but to me, it's about trump's narcissism. he wants people to think he's the smartest guy in the room. you have clips of that. he tells us, people, i was the greatest, you know? so he can't stand the truth, because the truth will bring him down. >> i was the greatest that was said by another american, mohammad ali, and he really did knock the guy out in the round he named. >> this is a different situation. >> thank you, former senator, barbara boxer. michael steele, thank both. >>> up next, will the real michael cohen please stand up? there he is! the real one. you're watching "hardball." biopharmaceutical researchers. driven each day to pursue life-changing cures... in a country built on fostering innovation. here, they find breakthroughs... like a way to fight cancer by arming a patient's own t-cells... and a new therapy that gives the blind a working gene so they can see again

so if you want to. >> obama is not running, kayleigh. you guys keep talking about obama.unning. >> martha: good record over the deficit the last four to five presidencies. i think that's a pretty tough argument for anybody to make on behalf of any president at this point. so, ladies, we will leave it there thank you very much. good to have both of you with us tonight. >> thank you, martha. >> martha: coming up next, the recent comments from president obama that have some saying he is starting to sound kind of like a conservative. >> let me say this. if you are really confident about your financial situation you probably aren't going to be wearing an 8-pound chain around your neck. jim! you're in! but when you have high blood pressure and need cold medicine that works fast, the choice is simple. coricidin hbp is the #1 brand that gives powerful cold symptom relief without raising your blood pressure. coricidin hbp. they work together doing important stuff. the hitch? like you, your cells get hungry. feed them... with centrum® micronutrients. restoring your awesome... daily

i want to remind you, michelle obama did start some kind of butram on eating healthy president obama did not support her, because he made jokes about it all the time. that is not a president who is supporting that program. thank you. guest: this starts with what happens in the home, with families and parents and the influence they have on their children. what was important about the initiative that michelle obama launched is really helping to bring the dialogue into the national consciousness. over time, it can have an impact. i absolutely agree, we are a country of free will and choices. i remember growing up, it was the moms that cooked lunches in school. that does not happen now. it underscores the family influence. the government can only do so much. saying,rper on twitter "do we even see melania trump." is this a perception issue? guest: it has been an issue since her first speech, july, 2016, cleveland at the convention where she delivered what would otherwise be considered a good speech, where her heart was and her pride in being an american, then the next day she wakes up and

what did obama know and did obama direct all of these agencies to become so politicized.pected to vote on the deal today. democrats say they are forcing the quick tally. mitch mcconnell says he's pushing for this vote to put democrats on the record and in a fox news poll, 37% of democratic primary voters said they would be very likely to back a candidate who supports the green new deal. is the vote taking place today? >> i'm sure it will. and i think it will be very revealing. shouldn't we all be on the record? isn't that the whole point? none of us came here to be neutral, i hope not, anyway. we took a position of influence to have influence. and so when you have nearly a fourth of the senate democrats, a third of the house democrats co-sponsoring the bill, they ought to be thanking the leader for bringing it up for a vote. that's why introduce legislation, is to vote on it. i would think they would want to vote on the resolution. interestingly, maria, not a single democrat has signed on to the bill since the leader announced he was going to call for a vote. so it does t

what we need to discover, what we do not yet know, was president obama involved? was this done for partisan purposes? was this done to try to elect taylor tilton? was this done with -- try to elect hillary clinton? we need every ounce of information about the people at the very top of our intelligence community that were promoting the inclusion of this fake mediar that most american outlets had discounted as unverifiable during it turned out to be unverifiable. we based this investigation on a lie. we should investigate who the liars were. i object. >> objection is heard. colleaguespublican do not want to read the report and they want to rely on the summary, that is their right. they can make requests in the all i am asking right now, whether you agreed with his investigation or not, that the public has a right to see the hundreds of pages which may well help us understand what russia did. i -- i believe our constitutional duties require us to have the report and the american people do not deserve to be left in the dark about what the report says. i hope it will b

. >> i'm fearful that obama feels the same way. >> this is going to scare the hell out of white people and you know that's true. >> it's designed to attempt to scare. >> while you've been listening to this pastor and close to him for nearly 20 years. >> reverend wright is somebody who is like an uncle or a family member who you may strongly object to what they have to say. >> uncles are blood relatives who you're kind of stuck with at family gatherings even when they say outrageous things. you can't get rid of them. you can walk out of a church, you can. >> he went on cable tv and just got pummelled. >> do you repudiate the man. >> and he called me that night and he said i want to make a speech on race. >> senator barack obama was working on this speech on race until early this morning. he's hoping not only to diffuse the commentary. >> we were in the green room, and senator obama turned to me and said, i know everybody's nervous, but i'm going to go out there and give this speech, and maybe people won't accept it,

i am an obama fan and saying why trump is different from obama. this is why i tape my introduce. interviews. this is what omar said on the tape. >> [inaudible]. >> --. that's not what we should be looking for. we don't want anybody to get away with murder because they are polished. we want to recognize the policies behind the pretty faces and smile. >> the same wording from the article. the reporter hit back on twitter telling omar exhibit-a of how politicians use the media to avoid owning what they said. your tape supports what i wrote 100%. it's beyond dispute. next time a phone call would be appreciated. the interview was published on day 5 of a difficult week for democrats on capitol hill. they pass the anti-hate bill in response to comments made by ilhan omar labeled as anti-semitic. a senior democratic house leader told fox all of our problems are caused by three people. >> they say are being targeted. >> shannon: today top democrats passing a massive bill that could remake american government. bringing together interesting opposition from the aclu to republican mitch mccon

have you convened a committee to try to replace obama care?remind your viewers how we got to this point. i think in your lead in it is important to note a couple things. we're stated with a court decision in texas where a judge ruled individual mandate. if you are recalling and your viewers recall, justice roberts used a pretty tortured logic. by that very nature if you have removed the tax as congress did last year, then the judge has ruled that the rest of obama care can't stand. republicans have campaigned for a long time about the affairs of obama care. even though they promised if you like your doctor you can keep it, that was a lie, and also promises that would lawyer peop -- lore peop lower premiums. it has been been the last year that premiums have started to stabilize because they allowed more plans to come on to the exchanges. >> okay, but obama care right now is popular with the majority of americans, according to a recent fox news pole whl, 52% disapprove, 37% approve of it. if everything you say is view and it gois to the supreme

barack obama have shown it.e ultimately in the context of running against very talented other democrats. is he going to show the gravitas and chops on policies when the debate started in a couple of months to come across a serious minded guy. everybody watches through the presidential, when beto o'rourke says i am about herch and republican or democrat, i am going to bring it all together. that's on the same plane of unrealism ultimately. >> right. >> can he be convincing? >> even though you work for a texan and we are walking about beto o'rourke. a texan. he does strike me as a good iowa candidate. when you think of the iowa, iowan iowans thhave this. they're looking for hope. >> they are. unique state pliolitically. you have certainly a progressive base there. but, i think candidates get a lot of points, a, for showing up. it is interesting that he started his tour not only in eastern iowa but south eastern iowa. >> george w. bush did that. so i thought it is an interesting mode. i agree with john. ultimately

i'm an obama fan. i was saying out trump is different from obama and why we should focus on policy, not politics, this is why i always tape my interviews. here is what she said on the tape in the article. >> policies are bad. they just were more polished. that is not what we should be looking for anymore. we don't want anybody to get away with murder if they are polished. we need to recognize the actual policies behind it. >> the same wording from the article. the reporter hit back on twitter telling omar exhibit a of how politicians use the media as a straw man to avoid owning what you said. you are tape supports 100% what i said, so does my longer tape. next telephone call from your office before the twitter ambush would be appreciated. politico published the interview on day 5 of a particularly difficult week for democrats on capitol hill they unanimously passed an anti-heat bill in response to comments made by congresswoman omar label is anti-semitic. a senior democratic house member told fox, quot

listen, president obama -- give him his credit, now. president obama was willing to raise this issue and willing to reach out to the koch brothers and go into prisons and his attorney generals tried to make some changes. he was not able to get it across the finish line. president trump, to his credit, got it across the finish line and now we have the first setbacks. we have a relay race going. both parties should be proud. >> this is a conservative conference. some people like tom cotton, they said, the first step back is letting out bank robbers, carjackers, letting out felons who assault kids and cops. why is it a good thing that those people are getting out early? >> let me try first quickly. my entry into this issue is a basic concept, which is we all will spend this whole conference talking about how the federal government gets a lot of things wrong and spends a lot of money getting things wrong. why out of no where do you think someone waves a magic wand and every thing they do when it comes to our federal prison system is unimpea

care is out we will have a plan that's far better than obama care.nk you all very much. i appreciate it. thank you. [ inaudible question ] >> no time line. [ inaudible question ] >> i greatly appreciate that she's here and she's been a tremendous representative for her country and she's meeting tomorrow with the first lady of the united states in florida. they're meeting tomorrow. >> it's a message that the united states is committed to seeing venezuela -- >> i'll tell you, if you look at what we're doing you will see a commitment that few people have made, and frankly, this didn't have to happen in venezuela. past administrations right here should have been more forward thinking. this should never have happened in venezuela. this is a tragedy. you know, we're fighting all over the world for countries where 5,000, 6,000, 7,000 miles away. they never did anything with respect to venezuela. past administrations allowed this to happen. i've inherited a mess between north korea and all of the problems we have all over the world, the entire middle east an

referred to barack obama as, wow, storybooks, clean and articulate. whether or not he runs for president, he's using his public status much like the clinton's to rake in millions. from six-figure speaking gigs to seven-figure book deals, crazy uncle joe is turning his humble public service into a gold mine. if he runs, biden would be just the latest democrat to engage in class warfare politics, all while sitting on top of a mound of cash and the worst record of any political team, him and obama, we've seen in our lifetime.n we are going to have a lot more on 2020 politics throughout the show and also the year. but first, we have to turn our attention to our report ono hannity watch on the deep state tonight. we have brand-new information. we saw it with a brand-new "usa today" suffolk university poll. one half of americans now believe that president trump is in fact a victim of a witch hunt being carried out by robert mueller and his merry band of democratic donors. doesn't take a genius' team of investigators to realize that collusion is a hoax. in f

i believe that he lost, trump's one because barack obama was president. barack obama was a black man and trump came out and he told the people, you guys would've for a black man, what the heck, this is not your country, this is not what the united states is about and they say yep, that's what we are thinking along, and we are not going back in that direction. so the reason trump was elected was basically because of racism and i don't know how you fix that. >> sonia i don't know if he notices but hillary clinton wasn't black. hillary clinton was a famous people in american politics. in this race came down -- it wasn't for trump and his messaging on hillary clinton -- on barack obama, his reference on hillary clinton. she was unable to mount the crack campaign to defeat donald trump at the end of the day. i'm not disputing the fact that trump has a lot of messaging that is racially charged. but at this point, he relatively had little messaging about obama, but it was all about crooked hillary. >> your book is out in paperback, ngt, time for volume two,. >>

she was highly critical of president obama in an interview with politico suggesting that obama's policiest much different than trump's. well, that's a joke. on monday fox news asked omar about her obama/trump comparison. this was her pretty despicable reaction. take a look. >> do you think -- [ inaudible ] >> do not. that is silly to even think and equate the two. one is two men, the other is really not. >> sean: here with reaction, geraldo rivera. there's certain things that i don't want the republican party dealing with. we've got a world with nuclear weapons. we want to make sure every american has opportunity. and i have no patience for any conservative or republican, racism or bigotry or -- i have no patience for this. the democrats couldn't get the votes to even mention the woman's name, and they give the watered down -- we'll just blame everybody for everything. >> you know, if -- if what you're saying, sean, is that their activism and their idealism sometimes leads them to intemperence, i totally agree. there's a reason you call the president mr. president. there's only one of the

celebrating a new president in the white house promising radical change and a better future president obama inspired the entire nation no more so than in baltimore were over sixty percent are african-american and violent crime and drug related deaths have been on the rise for decades but what became of all that optimism in the years following obama's election and two thousand and twelve al jazeera faultlines went to baltimore to find out here's baltimore anatomy of an american city. through the outskirts of both to me. and his home. he was twenty seven. today his family and friends are bearing. it while the us homicide rate overall is stable. those involving black youths have risen. faultlines is in the city of baltimore to try to find out why in the inner city neighborhoods of a bomber's america. life for so many young african-american men continues to be a fight for survival. our city's stubborn homicide count which is lowest level since nineteen seventy seven. and we know that these crimes are the ones that gave us a bad reputation as a dangerous place and for too long instilled the deep

barack obama has been silent throughout all this.the talk of the democrats who run these committees they don't want to talk to hillary clinton or barack obama. they want transparency, i want transparency. is the impeachment clause of the constitution. treason, bribery, other high crimes and misdemeanors. i can name people who committed treason, the high crimes and misdemeanors. is not in the white house. members of congress, big problem in this country, the democrat party is not a pro-american party. they lost in election, they want to destroy the president of the presidency. listen to the candidates. anti-american. anti-capitalism, anti-liberty, anti-security, anti-immigration. this is the problem in the media is their mouthpiece. >> attorney general bar told congress my that he nor rod rosenstein who oversaw the majority the russia probe could find sufficient evidence to charge donald trump with obstruction. some other news going on. tensions mounting along the gaza strip. israel and hamas swapping rocket strikes overnight. benjami

this all occurred in the obama administration.n to believe the president of the united states back then, barack obama, knew nothing. they had independent rogue operators in loretta lynch. and all the top brass of the fb fbi. mr. brennan and mr. klapper and the rest of them. obama and his staff had every finger in every department. the general information about this effort to destroy the candidate of the republican party and then the president-elect was in the media, because the fbi was leaking like a sieve. and what i'm suggesting to you right now is that there was this fast operation within the obama administration. hyper unmasking of individuals over there in the intelligence agencies. the aggressive use of the fbi including putting spies into the campaign of the republican candidate for president of the united states, including using opposition research handed to the fbi from the hillary clinton campaign, watched through a few surrogates. they had a person over and the deputy attorney general's office with connections to the ve

obama. >> president obama doubled. >> can i say real quick. >> deficit. >> i understand that, but you talk about deficit, i talking about national debt. >> yeah he paid for wars he did not starts. >> he did not end them either. >> back to what shaping now. >> democrat like kamala harris and bernie sanders have said we're rip private insurance from 100 million people and replace it is socialist government run system, to say that touching obamacare is a big deal, that is a much more radical position then looking at obamacare. >> look at half million people who are employed in the private insurance industry, what do we do with them. >> you know -- i like mayor pete's plan. medicare for all who want it. >> i like mayor pete. >> for who want it. >> what wrong is with that. >> imon it. >> a nice way to get -- >> we'll talk with the nice panel, they will be back. >> back to president's comment on russia. president railed again the investigation. >> russia witch-hunt was a plan by those who lost the election to try and illegally regain power by framing, innocent americans, many of them. they

the intel people under barack obama were all dead wrong.ey were trying to frame him. which one was it? >> martha: ari fleischer said today he thought this kind of investigation and the beginnings of it with sally yates, as jesse mentioned, would never happen without the knowledge of the president. do you agree? >> dana: no, not necessarily. not to disagree with ari fleischer of course. i don't know. i think there's times when there's a bright line and sometimes -- i don't know how present he was in all of this, president obama. how much did he care? there's very few things that unite silicon valley democrats and trump supporters but frustration with barack obama's administration on not raising a flag on russian interference. they know for a while it was happening and then we hear that president obama in that meeting with putin in september of 2016 leans over and says knock it off. we know what's happening. america didn't know. we know now. one of the things that's amazing, to jesse's point about scandal, 2016's election integrity was barack

i mean, this was obama. i would say something about the droning of countries around the world and people would say it was a obama. >> well, earlier, i spoke well nor holmes norton, the democratic congresswoman representing dvenlth listen to her action of omar's criticism of president obama. >> i'm almost relieved. because it looks like he is she is an equal opportunity critic. i tell you, i think the production i product of social media, when people hear her now, they are probably writing her off. no experience, how are you to understand how are you to behave as a member of congress. in terms of her speaking her mind. that's what free speech is all about. >> democratic candidates back out on the campaign trail, in fact, democrat bernie sanders is speaking to people in iowa. we will bring you his friends and later this hour, we will bring you the strategist. the question is why he left and what he thinks about sander,' new run for president. meanwhile, president trump is railing against his former attorney mi

after two years of the trouble presidency how well is obama's lead.

so this idea of using clean energy green jobs as a stimulus the economy is frankly what president obama did in two thousand and nine when he passed the stimulus package and so yes there's a lot of packaging there's a lot of message there's a lot of noise on this is a christian let me ask you let me ask about that is the messaging working for the democratic party i mean just as it was being rolled out nancy pelosi speaker of the house she seemed to be very dismissive of it and in the green new deal there were a lot of elements that seem to have a lot more to do with income redistribution and sort of a socialist wish list than it had to do with climate change or global warming what is the messaging on the democratic side it doesn't seem to be very coherent no i think that's exactly right and you could draw the analogy to medicare for all and everyone sort of says you know we should expand health care we all support medicare for all but when it comes down to what exactly that means there's a lot of differences so the idea that the united states should be reducing its carbon emissions that

well that's actually the argument of the obama administration the obama administration was not making the argument that they that the release of this information was a humanitarian gesture or a gesture of good will of the obama administration was basically asserting that unless the united states engaged in what appeared at least to be transparent reporting to the public that the enemy would be able to propagandize about how bad u.s. drone warfare was targeting civilian communities targeting children even if not targeting them killing them accidentally so the obama administration rationale for the program was to take a propaganda weapon away from the extremist organizations that it was fighting whether they were in somalia or other countries so it wasn't a goodwill gesture it was really part of a military effort to see campaign on the part of the obama administration denying the enemy a propaganda tool what do you make of the timing of this executive order well i think what we can see is that donald trump is all in with saudi arabia again the trouble ministration designated yemen an ar
