kislyak and page, at the rnc people there and a platform change. and then a peace plan essentially reset of russian relations floated through kushner into tillerson. you look at this and it was wildly successful. the idea of russian influence operations in this is let's reset foreign policy relations with the united states in a way that we are getting everything we want. and they were pursuing that on multiple fronts. i think the other part though that we just have to look at, in the president's actions, whether he was going to the dni coats, whether out to admiral rogers, when he is dealing with fbi director comey, he keeps bringing up the pressure that you need to go out publicly and say i'm innocent because i need to reset relations with russia. let's think about this. this was march, march now of 2017, march and april, we had just come out of an election where we know the russians had interfered with it. they targeted our systems with hacks. it is very detailed in this. they used influence operations and even sent the russian trolls out here to

why did the rnc do that and do you agree with it?ng if you ask voters behind me, many camped out here last night. i was here, i saw camp site, you ask them, who, they don't know who they are. republican voters, 93% support this president, that's the highest party approval rating of any president in modern history. more than reagan, more than clinton, more than barack obama. rnc is reflecting the voters who support them, more republican votes than any nominee than the history of the party. i understand that upsets the establishment. people here have never been more energized. >> no doubt that ratings are high, but the challengers, or potential challengers, why not give them a chance, why have the rnc go out and, you know, put this statement so far ahead of the game and governor hogan, i interviewed him while in new hampshire, what the rnc is doing now is worst than what the dnc did back in 2016 with bernie sanders. your response. >> yeah, not true. it's actually party even cancel primary ahead of time, certainly consider support among

what did you think about the effectiveness of that ad from the rnc? >> juan: i thought it was vile. horton two-point oh, and appeal to the most basic emotions, you can't have murderers voting, you can't have terrorists voting. let's talk about it, let's talk about your constitutional right to vote, let's figure it out. here's the thing, i'm not sure about that policy. but i think this, that place to bernie's brand. bernie is not mainstream, he is outside the mainstream and people looking for new ideas and struggling, they liked it. they see him as someone who is a trailblazer and not playing the way you want him to play. by the way you say their attitude, guess, i think bernie is the only one among the democrats to fully embrace this idea. that's not them, that's bernie. i think this place to bernie's -- young people love that he is outside the box and telling the establishment to go take a walk. >> jesse: i don't think bernie supporters care that he supports this, he didn't lose any votes here. >> emily: he didn't lose any votes at all. i think -- sure, i will say that i think this

bringing the rnc's total to $46 million this year, more than double what the democrats took in.ou think that is all about? >> it shows that the support for president trump has sustained through the small dollar donors. i think it has increased with the release of the mueller report, clearing the president of collusion and obstruction, it just motivates them more to help reelect president trump, but we have seen 1 million new small dollar donors that have gone through recurring payments at the small online level, and then in the past since january, eight days raising over $1 million, so the president is the biggest driver of the record fund-raising. >> melissa: michael bloomberg has said that he will put in half a billion dollars of his own money to defeat president trump, you have other billionaires that want to tip the scales, does that worry you? >> it does not come i think that the american people do not want to see billionaires from the democrat party trying to buy the selection. they realize how well the economy is doing and they know that jobs are coming back, they don't w

you talk about the rnc.ent ran insurgent campaign and he was able to win and this time he has the party behind him. look at a -- at what happened last weeblg when the mueller report came out and mitt romney made comments critical of the president and the entire party on the right went after him and there is very little room these days for criticism where he won't have a lot of people having his back. >> and tara, in the meantime, talk about joe biden and switch topics for a moment here. because he's in the race and biden said he's fighting trump but beyond that what exactly is his 2020 message? >> well, i think obviously first and foremost for democrats the number one priority is to make donald trump a one-term president. so that is part of the message, part of what the base wants to hear. they want to hear that you're prepared to fight donald trump. i think biden has a long history and a long track record. i don't think he's going to deviate much from where he was when he was with president obama as vice pr

the rnc has reflected that.are unconcerned. >> the rnc and the president are not even entertaining an idea of a primary debate? >> not at all. we are focused on the democrats and the running of socialism we see on the horizon. host: republicans only, do you support a primary challenge to the president? ed, you support, tell us why. caller: there are a couple of reasons. i have always voted republican, it is a character issue to me. the president is always a liar, i don't know when to believe and when not to believe. i think it would be good for him to stand up against another republican and let's hear them both out and see how the president does and how the other republican does in a primary. i had best wishes for the president when he started. there are just too many things he has done and said. i don't know when to believe him and when not to believe him. host: you did vote for him in 2016? caller: yes, i did. host: when did it change for you? caller: one of my kids voted democrat and told me at the beginning.

passersby to support their actions and take a stand against fossil fuel-funded politicians. >> the rnc is a criminal enterprise and has a history of our species. they are the center of climate denial. we're out here today as part of the international extinction rebellion to let the rnc know that we know what they're doing. we're going to continue to call attention to their denial of how they are ruining our planet. amy: more actions across the u.s., the u.k., and other parts of the world are expected in the coming days. parisians held a vigil tuesday night as france continues to mourn the burning of t the famed notre-dadame cathedral. french preresident emmananuel mn -- rescue e efforts succeeded in saving some of the most treasured relics, including the crown of thorns. french president emmanuel macron vowed to rebuild notre dame within five years s as donatiois for r the reconstructionon effot reacached nearly $1 billion. paris's prosecutor said the investigation into the cause of the fire, believed to be an accident, will be long and complex. authorities say won't know the full exte

right after the rnc. i mean, we all know this. this is a matter of simple fact. so either this a.g.w. that's scary. that the campaign was told be careful, the russians are trying to make lots of trouble for us, be careful. or he does know and he's trying to deceive. that leads me to my second concern, scott, with the aca, why are you litigating it? because we're in litigation so we take a position. right. you're only in litigation because the president told you to. he leaves that out. then he says, well, listen, don't be upset, the president has a plan to replace the aca. that's not true, scott. everybody knows there is no plan until after the 2020 election. these are material misrepresentations of fact by the a.g. why? >> well, i think we need an accounts of what the trump campaign was told. i know we think they were told something. i'm not sure we know exactly what they were told. there are other people involved in the campaign that say they weren't given a full accounting of how exactly they were being surveilled. so i think if what he accomplishes here is getting a full accounti

join me rnc spokesperson liz harrington. is this a preview of what we'll see in 2020?t of all, i say rnc does not condone hacking or stealing private information, we also do not condone paying for fake opposition research designed to -- from russia ans spreading disinformation. i would ask mr. perez, will he pledge to the dnc will never again traffic in dirty dossiers. the factory main, republican party had nothing to do with the release of those, mail, trump campaign of cleared of any and all collusion. but the bottom line is, john podesta's e-mails were real, the dossier was fake. mr. perez, whose party was trafficking and lying? >> i have said it over again, and i led off the show with this, this is a tragedy what happened to this country be we deserve answers, every american. that was a big waste two years, no crime, no collusion. the russians did not even get close, yet if you listen to democrats all along. by the way people in intel januar--intelligence community,y were trying to lead american people down the path that president was a agent of russia. when you wa

joining us tonight rnc chair rhonda mcdaniel great to have you with us.ok at those numbers and you hear senator moran talk about subsidizing what she really is saying is just on the right the salaries of every left-wing professor in the country. >> it reeks of desperation and i think she needs to go grab another beer and her campaign is floundering. her campaign is foundering and as you pointed out it is ridiculous and will cost billions of dollars in the course democrats want to upsize and pay for free college so they can control the curriculum and determine what young adults are being caught taught and what they think. i'm more concerned about the kids in third grade in this country who need to read and about kids who aren't graduating from high school. those are the things we should focus on called school of choice major kids are bound to an education based on where they live, give them the opportunity to have the best education and those are things that republicans champion, not free college for everybody because it is opry and he will pay for it many

. >> the response from the rnc to your pledge that the democrats will not use tacked material in thepcoming election and asking republicans to do the same. the republican spokesman pointed to mcdaniels's priest comment, saying that mcdaniel made it clear where he stands in a breech of our organizations regardless of parties and a friend to all of us and should come together as americans. it's important to do all we can to safeguard our elections. is that good enough? >> of course not. if i were in a court of law at the justice department, i would say objection, your honor, nonresponsive. this is simple. if a foreign adversary steals information that's private and tries to traffic is, to anyone, you should say no. period, this is not about right versus left. that's the simple proposition here. we know what happened in 2016. the russians hacked the dnc and hacked into john po testa and others and used that stolen information because they wanted to help donald trump and hurt hillary clinton. we are saying that candidates shouldn't participate in such activity. this is a lay up or should

the rnc support an e-mail out that said the hunters become the hunted.nc e-mail highlighted the spying comment, the hunters become the hunted. what does that say, do you think, about what happened today? >> what it says, chris, very clearly, is that the barr initiative and it was his doing on his own, using the word spying was a dog whistle. firefighters a shout out to the far right ecosystem and to the false trump narrative about his being the victim, not the perpetrator and the republican national committee will use this clip in ads. hard to see how this could not have been a calculated step by william barr because this term is so incendiary and so loaded, no professional would ever use it. the person who authorized the warrants sits down the hall from him. rod rosenstein. he depends on rosenstein as having concurred with his four-page summary of the mueller report. this kind of feeding the narrative, i think was a calculated decision. >> you had an exchange with someone before your committee. deputy attorney general jeffrey rosen about sort of ensurin

and then you saw a blast from the rnc which seemed to have prompted brian kilmeade's comments on "fox friends" linking the comments that she made in front of care -- suggesting she was down playing and those are the words the rnc used, down playing the terrorist attacks. you could see it many different levels. republicans seem to see omar as a new way of really tagging her with the entire democratic party with an eye toward 2020 and those elections then. >> but on the flip side, as you point out, she also puts democrats in a tough position. >> that is right. there are some actual substantive attacks that republicans are making, that, again, democrats were very uncomfortable with those remarks that she made, ironically suggesting that members of congress who support israel may not be -- may have dual loyalty and a lot of jewish democrats saw those as reminiscent of anti-semitic attacks so democrats have this sort of tough decision they have to make. do they keep her at arm's length because of the strident way she approaches these things and calling white house aide stephen miller a whi

does the rnc move compared to what the dnc did in 2016? >> i think it goes way beyond what the dnc did. they're trying to stack the deck. this is much worse. >> every time you have been asked about running for president, you say never say never. hogan: a growing number of people have been asking me to give it serious consideration, and i felt an obligation to do that. you will have to look beyond new hampshire as well. governor hogan: i have been to 10 states. i have 16 more on the schedule. there is no exact matrix of decision-making, i'm just going to continue to listen to people and feel it out. the filing deadline in new hampshire is november 15. a shorter field would be better for a challenger that didn't have as much money, so rather than us spending the whole summer, there is no rush to jump in. i know democrats are jumping in and they have to fight each other read i feel no pressure to get in any earlier than the law says you have to get in. run?d he encourage you to governor hogan: charlie and i are good friends. he gave me lunch,

go back with me back in time to the 2016 rnc convention and the language of the platform gets changedn ukraine, that we were going to support with arms and then it gets watered down. evelyn was like, how did that happen? i want to know, how did that happen? maybe manafort has a side deal going on but it turns out no, a staffer, not important level staffer that thought they heard the president at some point think that maybe he would rather do it this way and so he gets changed. for almost three years, there has been the suspicion out there that there was a change in the rnc platform based on some sort of nefarious thing in regards to russia. >> jesse: i want the name of that staffer. >> marie: it is in the report. up next, william barr heading back hard against claims that he's working for president trum president trump. there was a moment, my son i believe was about four, where he actually asked me "mommy what's wrong with your teeth?" if i would've known that i was gonna be 50 times happier... i would've gone into aspen dental much sooner. it was a very life changing experience... an

you talk how the campaign at rnc, voter core data.ign does with the rnc and democrats do ton the other side, basically rating voters in a variety of ways. one of which is likelihood of voting, others sort of issue sets what they care about. others are their likelihood to vote for the president or to vote for his rival. whoever that may end up being. so what they're trying to do, get a good sense who they need to talk to, how they need to talk to them, how frequently talk to them and how to do it. be email, over the phone, by text message? i guess that's over the phone, or airwaves. then also they use this information for models how the vote will turn out. >> trump allies tell you the main between between 2016 and 2020, the president can run on his performance. the "washington post" has an interesting comment, can the president win the second time railing against the very problems he promised to fix, like immigration, like health care. ran on these in 2016 and today, the moment we find ourselves in now, running on both things again com

today the campaign was an informed of russia interference when it was in july 2016 right after the rncthe book. finding ways to limit disclosure of the mueller report, taking the decision on obstruction from mueller, misleading congress about the president litigating the aca, obamacare, saying he has a plan to replace it, misstating that the administration had changed the rules to prohibit family separation. none of that is by the book. so the president has clearly made this attorney general his pl plenipotent year on all matters legal. he is the president's lawyer. proof, want my tax, says the president? ask the ag. neither potus nor the ag have any say over the statute that was passed by congress and clearly lays out a process for obtaining taxes, has nothing to do with either of them. want the mueller report? i leave to it the ag. don't be deceived by barr's sense of calm. his ease is a function, not of clear conscience, but of comfort in the position, protecting a president from political scrutiny. this is who barr was in iraqgate. who he was allowing then president bush to avoid s

rnc chair, ronna mcdaniel, your impressions, if you will, on the democratic members of the subcommittee, as they tried to take on the attorney general of the united states. >> well, democrat members of subcommittee failed. trying too discredit attorney general barr. he countered every point they made, they said you were too quick to find a conclusion, he said we have a preview of it, which shows how fake the news had been with sources like "new york times" said that mueller team was not happy with power's conclusion. -- about barr's conclusion. so many things time after time, they said, what will it get out, he said a week, i will color code the redaction. lou: that is my favorite part of william barr's testimony today. attorney general, i don't know if he men me meant anything by t color coding for the democratic members is appropriate. >> they like to color outside of the lines of the truth, he will give them a road map, into not let them change the narrative and grasp at straws. the report is out, no collusion, no obstruction. let's focus on the border where we really have an emergen

what does mueller say about the rnc convention and the russian friendly change in the rnc platform. republican platforms aren't usually pro russia. mueller found in the investigation there was not enough evidence to suggest the platform change came directly from trump or a quid pro quo. had it been that might be the type of thing you look at as conspiracy evidence. instead it looked like a campaign advisor, j.b. gordon who said he changed the platform based on his view what trump would want, public position but not part of some deal. i will read this to you from @fayecook19 on witter. can barr be imreached for misleading about the report. mr. barr gives his opinions or vours conclusions or spin, that alone is not the kind of thing that leads to negative consequences in a legal sense for attorney general like being held in contempt or impeachment. while i've been quite clear what mr. barr said was incorrect that alone is not the kind of thing generally rising to the level of impropriety. but if he made those same statements to a court or court filing or congress under oath, it can be

let's get back to rnc spokesperson liz harrington. liz, has the president done enough? we heard from john, the economy is humming along very well, thank you very much. if we can get these trade deals done especially with china, that could be the next leg up. >> absolutely. we are going to get better trade deals just like president trump promised and look, just because the media chooses not to cover the booming economy on other networks doesn't mean it's not happening and doesn't mean that the president isn't out there talking about it and he's going to minnesota today for a roundtable, to talk about the incredible tax cuts and what's happened in our economy, just like you were saying home ownership is up again, people are buying homes. the american dream is back. wages are rising for the first time in a decade. actually, for the lowest, the bottom 10% of americans, they are seeing the biggest wage growth at 6%. so that's all great news. the president continues to talk about it. ashley: and he should. it's a big issue certainly for 2020. liz, thank you so much for joinin

this is the rnc's best non-election year total. >>we want to get now live to kron four scale on she is covering a tragic story out of oakland for us tonight where a mother and her son were killed in a hit and run crash. >>yeah just seen right behind me and there is a memorial with their pictures candles and flowers, the neighbors and family members are leaving out this is where the crash site happen we're over a foot hill boulevard and 26 avenue. you can see there's still a crowd over here a lot of activity going on. now the incident happened at just before 7 30 last night and we learned tonight the victims are 6 year-old angel garcia and his mother 30 year old alma vasquez's and a 20 year-old man who was a relative now they were crossing at this marked crosswalk here you see at 26 ab and foothill boulevard this is in oakland and what i was told from a b a mother and her son at we spoke to a family member, her husband and father and he said they were just crossing the street to go here to this a laundry mats are very heartbreaking

the rnc chair. your thoughts about senator sanders is doing really well. a lot of people thought it was a one-trick pony and he's over the hill. he's not. he's clearly in the running and see him getting up to 40%. he might win the whole contest. what does that do? a self-proclaimed socialist not a member of the democratic party going into a general election against trump? >> that's an interesting dyna c dynamic. you have someone with the title democratic socialist, but we are living in a capitalist society. it's not as if bernie sanders put policies out and out socialism. yes, some government-run programs like health care, but a lot of democrats are talking about that. your question to what is this going to look like in a general election? i don't know. we never had a candidate and incumbent president like donald trump. some of the difficulty we had as a clinton campaign against a candidate who lies all the time and you can't fact check him because he doesn't care. it is difficult to navigate. if bernie is the nominee which i think all of the candidates ha

it >> reporter: what the rnc said is we care more about impeachment and getting bill clinton than we do about substantive matters that bother you. >> reporter: in 1998, house speaker nancy pelosi was already a member of congress, she was fighting against clinton's impeachment. >> i urge my colleagues to vote no, stop this hatchet job on the presidency, stop this hypocrisy, stop his hatred. >> reporter: pelosi saw the republicans loses seats in the house of representatives, and house speaker newt gingrich had to resign. so, perhaps it is no surprise thelosi isme for the iraq war. it divides the country. >> healthcare, job creation, cleaner government, gun safety, issues like that. it is not worth our time to take our attention from those issues. >> reporter: it seems not everyone agrees with that approach, for high-profile democrats are already calling for impeachment, and today, three congressmen said it's possible. >> if previewed some of this would be impeachable, yes. i'm not there yet, but i can foresee that possibly coming. >> i do believe he obstructed justice in many ways. >>

here is the statement we received from the rnc on the topic.ay any breach of our political organizations is an affront to all of us. we should come together as americans to prevent it from every happening again. it is important we do all we can to safeguard our future elections. are you satisfied? >> of course not. this should be a lay-up. charlottesville should have been a lay-up for president trump. that wasn't right versus left. it was right versus wrong. what we saw in the 2016 election, a foreign adversary. our fiercest foreign adversary attempted to interfere with our election to help donald trump and hurt hillary clinton. what we said in 2016. don't use stolen information >> it sounds like they are saying that. when they say it is an affront to all of us, it sounds like they are saying that >> then you see the reporting in yesterday's news about the former homeland security secretary who expressed concerns about this happening again and was told, you can't bring it up in front of donald trump. we are at war now. it is a cyber war. unfort

also joining me now mike shields, and reince priebus at the rnc. good evening, gentlemen. why does the president keep pushing this lie to undermine people's faith in a fair election and telling the gop to be paranoid about vote counting? >> well, look, i'm surprised that people are disagreeing with him. i mean stacey abrams still hasn't conceded, and in florida the democrats after the election sent thousands of people down there to challenge the election and they challenged the actual florida state law they ran the election under. and in north carolina the democrats passed the law in arizona and in california to create ballot harvesting. i think we should have ballot security everywhere, and i think that's what president trump is saying. >> so you agree with the president that republicans lost because it was rigged? >> what i'm saying is he raised an important issue that we should have people checked to verify they're citizens before they vote and they're voting in the right precinct. and i think a lot of people across both parties should agree with that. >> andrew gillum,

because a lot of very prominent wealthy gay are supporting donald trump for a peerless book at the rncd. it is shameful that some are campaigning against pete buttigieg. in iowa there is some demonstrators, no more republicans and in unassociated with donald trump or mike pence. greg: what i heard pete buttigieg say this, i was like -- what in the world is he talking about? it is not what mike pence is said about mayor pete. >> not at all, not at all, in fact they had a very cordial relationship when he was governor in indiana and mayor pete was coming up the ranks. look, i think the investor is a real hero of mine. because it is very difficult to go against the grain of the so-called activist within your group, be it african-american or gay or woman. and for the ambassador to stand up the way he did and talk against the growing intolerance of the left, for different point of view, for people exercising their first amendment rights which is not only freedom of speech and freedom of thought, or freedom of religion as well. there's a, is not just mayor pete but kamala harris as well. sen

she was the director of domestic policy for the obama biden policy and michael steele, former rnc chairman and msnbc analyst. two of my favorites. let's start with you and take this question oust democratic primary. joe biden is acting like the presumptive nominee and in the lead. assuming he were to prevail, what does it look like against donald trump? >> i think the fact that trump engaged joe biden helps his argument. joe biden's argument is that he is a person who can unite the party and take the argument directly to trump. i think people can imagine him on a debate stage with donald trump. he had exchanges with donald trump where he doesn't shy away. he is an aggressive assertive voice and i think in a party that from the most moderate to the most liberal left person, donald trump is on so many issues, most fundamentally on race and division. the fact that the vice president, joe biden is talking about those issues, it does help make the argument that he's the best candidate against trump. that's reinforing in the primary. the voters are focused on electability. the more he makes the
