schneiderman. a straightforward case of violation of the laws governing charitable foundations and non-profit organizations in new york. >> so you're saying it was not brought by mr. schneiderman. but the tweet goes on to say, sni schneiderman, who ran the clinton campaign in new york, never had the guts to bring this ridiculous case, which lingered in their office for almost two years. now he resigned his office in disgrace, and his disciples brought it when we would not settle. >> we brought this case when we had evidence and the legal article um arguments to back tup. it obviously was not settled. that's usually how cases are brought. there's nothing unusual about that. >> barbara underwood, the attorney general of new york, speaking with cnn's anchor christiane amanpour. let's get back to the panel. you've looked through this document. all of us have read the document by now. how strong of a case does new york state have against the president and his children? >> well, it seems very strong, but

schneiderman. this is a straightforward case of violation of the laws governing charitable foundations and non-profit corporations in new york. >> you are saying it was not brought by mr. schneiderman. the tweet goes on to say, schneiderman, who ran the clin c clinton campaign never had the guts to bring this case. now he resigned in disgrace and his disciples brought it when we would not settle. >> we brought this case when we were confident we had the evidence and the legal argument to back it up. and it was not -- it obviously was not settled. >> this is a big first case to take on. are you prepared for the slings and arrows that are going to come your way? >> i hope so. i think so. i mean, i have spent decades doing -- trying to apply the law without fear or favor. i have never been interested in either exempting somebody from the law because of their political position or enforcing the law especially against them because of their political position. there's no reason why i would do anything di

just because the former attorney general -- eric schneiderman, forced out of office, to resign, over allegations of abuse, and we have this new attorney general who is just got in there, doesn't mean that she decided to drop this today. this office has been looking into this for well over a year as well as many other situations with the trump situation. so we should not be surprised that this would have dropped today. >> asha, what happens now. what questions do you have? >> my question now is how does this relate to just the bigger pattern that we're seeing. and on a number of different fronts. shan mentioned the campaign finance issues, we see that that is an issue that is popping up also in the stormy daniels lawsuit. the self-dealing, there is a separate lawsuit that is suing the president for violating the emoluments clause of the constitution. this is not a one-off. to the point just made, i think that one thing to learn from this is that when you have investigations, they take on a life of their own and just because a prosecutor leaves doesn't mean the investigation gets dropp

eric schneiderman, are doing everything they can to sue me on a foundation that took in $18,800,000 and gave out to charity more money than it took in. "i won't settle this case." >> this was not a sleazy or political action, nor was it this is a straightforward case of violation of the laws governing charitable foundation >> kyra what is the new york state attorney general's office. it could shut down the foundation. force the president and his kids pay restitution and make sure they never lead a nonprofit for at least a did he indicate. >> kyra thank you. the growing outrage of families being separated at the border. thousands of children separated from their parents. tonight for the first time we've now been allowed inside one of the immigration detention centers. what our correspondent was allowed to see, but what he >> reporter:as fromston. a look inside the country's largest facility for undocumented children. we're invited in. no recording devices allowed, no cell phones. so many people have been asking what happens to those children facility where they're tak ca o feral governme

what we have seen is, eric schneiderman thought he was going to make his political career going afteronald trump and his family at the foundation while at the same time asking for donations when he was running for office. that's a hypocrisy of new york politics. now you look at the attorney general has said recently about this administration. battling the white house is the most important work i have ever done. that's what the attorney general of new york has said. so if you don't think that her attacks on the trump foundation are a political vendetta, then nothing is. she's abusing her power as attorney general to go after a foundation that has donated tens of millions of dollars to charitable causes, and specifically those to help veterans. >> martha: eric schneiderman didn't really use his office at all to investigate the clinton foundation, he was a supporter of hillary clinton but did not choose to use the office the offices resources to look into that at all. in terms of the campaign and what they are accusing the campaign of, it does point to you directly with regard to the iow

but there have been a lot of people who looked at schneiderman and a lot of the president's opponents and who there was a lot of talk about a case that he -- was he building a case against the president? and now she has stepped in and put this forward. what is the significance in your mind of it? >> well, what is a little sad to me, to be honest with you, is there is nothing really here in my view that we didn't already know. just that investigators had the opportunity to shape a case and bring it forward. we were -- david farronhold of the washington post did extensive reporting during the campaign. we were told he was using this foundation to buy art works for his properties, that he was running events for the foundation at his own properties and profiting from them. and, by the way, i will say, the same thing is happening at the republican national committee. and by his campaign. both of those entities spend millions, i believe might be tens of millions of dollars at trump properties. and that's illegal too, by the way. illegal to use campaign dollars to enrich yourself. so what is

is the person that started this investigation two years ago he says the former attorney general schneiderman is a democrat which he is and was a clinton supporter so insinuates in his tweets that this is politically motivated and nothing beyond that everything is on the thank you very much indeed. now an investigation by the u.s. department of justice has found that x. f.b.i. director james comey dramatically broke norms but wasn't biased in his handling of the hillary clinton e-mail probe the highly anticipated report examines the actions taken by top f.b.i. and justice department officials before the twenty sixteen presidential election it found his decisions negatively impacted the perception of the f.b.i. as for administrators of justice white house correspondent can really help it has more. is a wide ranging report by the inspector general seventeen months in the making it walks through the key moments in that investigation and the handling by the former f.b.i. director james comey into the use of a private e-mail server by hillary clinton the democratic presidential nominee when she wa

schneiderman resigned last month. after allegations of physical assault by multiple women.e's denied those allegations. the new attorney general said there is nothing sleazy or political about the lawsuit. joining me for his take the former u.s. attorney for the southern district of new york. >> just in terms of the law, what could this mean for president trump, this investigation of the foundation? >> it's another legal headache on top of a whole bunch of other legal headaches, some directed at michael cohen and paul manafort. repeatedly in the petition, the new york a.g.'s office makes the point of saying that donald trump himself signed documents under penalty of perjury. he made represent tragss the way it was done. >> she said was involved in politics. >> correct. and then it looks like he does. this is a civil case. they've done some investigation obviously because they have a lot of information and details in the document. but they get discovery. >> so if there's one charge, that unlike so many other things that we've been reading about respect to the president's leg

schneiderman was forced out in a sex abuse scandal. however, this lawsuit has been filed by barbara underwood who really is a seasoned and respected federal and former state prosecutor, former acting solicitor general of the united states. she's argued many cases before the u.s. supreme court. these pleadings make some very, very serious allegations. first the president is listed personally as a defendant in the case, so the question arising, will he be forced to now testify in this very complicated case. and secondly, she alleges that this foundation was really an empty shell. there was no supervision, no accounting for where the investments went and that it was run, really, as part of the trump campaign. one of the exhibits attached to the pleadings is a picture of a check, purportedly, of the foundation which has the slogan "make america great again" on the bottom of the check just to show the interrelationship in what she says is an improper interrelationship between the foundation and politics. so i think it looks, on its face, to

them in august 2013, schneiderman faced new charges and was found guilty of perjury and hindering then of a killer. sentenced to five years, in 2014, schneiderman was released from prison and completed her parole three years later. in 2015, a break for hemy neuman, or was it? the georgia supreme court threw out the original conviction. saying the trial court erred in admitting evidence protected by attorney/client privilege. but in a 2016 trial, jury found him guilty once again and he was sentenced to life without parole, plus five years. >>> that's all for this edition of ""dateline."" i'm craig melvin. thank you for watching. >>> i'm craig melvin. >> and i'm natalie morales. >> and this is ""dateline."" >> all of a sudden i realized, what's going on? why are they late? something definitely was wrong. he said, your family was in an accident. and my whole world just dropped out from underneath me. >> the scene told the story. >> what did you find? >> something i don't want to see again. >> a deadly crash on a dark road, two gone, one barely alive. tr

schneiderman resigned last month. after allegations of physical assault by multiple women. new attorney general said there is nothing sleazy or political about the lawsuit. joining me for his take the former u.s. attorney for the southern district of new york. >> just in terms of the law, what could this mean for president trump. this investigation of the foundation? >> well, it's another legal headache on top of a bunch of other legal headaches, directed at some of his associates. the thing that struck me in reading the verified petition is that repeatedly in the petition, the new york ag's office makes the point of saying that donald trump himself signed documents under penalty of perjury. >> said it wasn't involved in politics? >> correct, it looks like it was. with very specific concrete allegations, people need to remember this is not a criminal case that's been brought. it's a civil case. they've done some investigation obviously, they have a lot of investigation and details in the lawsuit document, but they get discovery over time unless it gets dismissed, when you g

and the person who continues his crusade, barbara underwood, who set up on taking over for schneiderman, "i believe this job at this moment in history is the most important job i have ever had." yeah, little subtlety there. think about it. donald trump operated a foundation that had zero overhead, no administrative costs, and gave away more than $19 million to a variety of charitable causes. trump and his companies personally port $8 million into the foundation. now there was a mistake and contribution made to pat bondi's campaign but it was rectified once it was discovered. in other words, this is a penny-ante stuff that would never be pursued by the new york state of attorney general's office if donald trump hadn't gotten into politics. it's another example of politicized law enforcement, and abuse of process. this time it was through a civil action on the state level. where were they, by the way come at the federal level when the clinton foundation was accepting funds from foreign governments while hillary was secretary of state? some of them wants to get meetings with hillary. meanw

schneiderman, who ran the clinton campaign in new york, never had the futures to bring this ridiculous case, which lingered in their office for almost two years. now he resigned his office in disgrace, and his disciples brought it when we could not settle. let's bring in our leadoff panel on a thursday night, shall we? michael schmidt is here with us, pulitzer prize-winning washington correspondent for "the new york times." jill colvin, white house reporter for the associated press. and jeremy peters, political reporter for "the new york times." mr. schmidt, home field advantage goes to you. you also did happen to break the clinton e-mail story back in the day. so what is your takeaway? i know it's a big question. it was 500 pages after all from today's i.g. report. >> there's all sorts of stuff in there about all different parts of this investigation. it's the biggest thing it comes back to comey. comey is the chief witness against the president in an obstruction investigation. how does this change our understanding of comey? well, if you didn't like comey's judgment before today, you

schneiderman is long gone. so that's just pixie dust that the president is throwing in the air. >> walter, let's talk more about the lawsuit because it alleges that the president used this foundation to settle legal obligations including a $100,000 payment to settle claims at his mar-a-lago resort. they even have a handwritten note apparently by trump authorizing this. what kind of legal trouble could the president be facing here? >> well, he's actually facing three different lines of attack. there's the state lawsuit, which is going to go the way litigation goes. it's going to be a bloody, knockdown, dragout fight. he's tweeting that he's not going to settle. i doubt that this new york attorney general is worried about that. she seems to think she's got a pretty strong case because that was a barn burner of a lawsuit she's filed. she also referred this to both the irs and the fec. there's some potential trouble there because there are very strict rules on taking advantage of the tax exemption for nonprofits, a

schneiderman didn't even want to do this.chneiderman want to do everything he possibly could against this president. he even refused, saying there wasn't enough evidence. this russian investigation is imploding. where the top professionals looking into this alleged brush occlusion the last 18 months and only thing they found his weight, know we've been there once colluding. they need to find everything they possibly can to create distractions integrate these proxies against the president and they would love nothing more than to try to have power of discovery against on jr., eric, and ivanka. it's unbelievably politicized. >> i get to hear one person by donald trump's campaign manager is directing funds to be spent from the trump foundation in iowa while while he's campaigning there before the caucus. it is blatant politicization. it's illegal. that's the problem. >> shannon: those are the allegations. and i will wait to see because we all agree innocent until proven guilty in this country's oil watch this lawsuit with great a

>> cetainly er schneiderman, the former new york attorney general, it began this investigation under his watch. c ncludes today with this lawsuit which was launched by a successor who happe not to be a politician. she's an unelected official who got promoted when snder-man resigned. this question was not who ararted it. attorney generalby their nature from one party or the other. the question is what do thesa factand what has trump said tact facts? if you look at the complaint itself, trump has already agreed with many of their conclusions. many of the examples of self-dealing, trump spending money to pay off his business's debts to make that political donation to pam bondi.tr p has agreed in all those case, yes, i did, that yes, i was wrong. paid back the money and in kome paces paid in excise tax. this lawsuit is ag him to pay back more, alleging more violations that trump hasn't t agreed to. he's saying this is all a political witch-hunt and politically motivated, he's already himself conceded that a loatof the allns brought by that investigation were true. >> woodruff:>> nawaz: d

because it was started two years ago by then- current democratic new york attorney general eric schneiderman. he resigned, but underwood, barbara underwood, she is a preer public servant and has said she will not run again. we should note that the trump foundation, of course, dismissed all of this, saying it was an example of politics at its worse. and they said that the president or his companies donated $8 million to the foundation. but according to the expert, it signals trouble for the president potentially. >> glor: okay, anna werner, thank you. nearly 20 large wildfires are burning in nine states across the west tonight. red flag warnings for dry and dusty conditions spread from nevada and colorado. omar villafranca is there. >> reporter: crews battling the 416 fire have their hands full with gusty winds, dry conditions, and raging flames. thick smoke rising thousands of feet into the air is casting a gray haze over durango's rugged terrain. todd pechota is the incident commander. >> make no bones about it, our number-one priority is the safety of incident and response. >> reporter: ti

the sleazy new york democrats and their now disgraced and run out of town ag eric schneiderman are doing everything they can to sue me on a foundation that took in $18 million and gave out to charity. i won't settle this case. joining us tonight, fox business legal analyst gregg jarrett, author of the new book "the russia hoax, the illicit scheme to clear hillary clinton and frame donald trump" now available for preorder everywhere. you saw the inspector general's report before you wrote that subtitle. >> oh yeah. lou: that's amazing. because that's what this document is. it lays out exactly that. >> what should have been in the inspector general's report is in any book. and it's the argument about how hillary clinton clearly broke the law. lou: they have to pay for your book. not the inspector general's report. >> i notice you're a little animated on this subject today. lou: i'm a little animated when i see this country going straight to hell. we're putting up with a corrupt department of justice, a corrupt attorney general, a deputy attorney general, five, at least five corrupt fbi age

schneiderman who ran the clinton campaign in new york never had the guts to bring this ridiculous case which lingered in their office for almost two years. now he resigned his office in disgrace and his disciples brought it after we did not settle. bottom line, president trump has no public events on his schedule today. he's clearly paying very close attention to all of these headlines as he now deals with this lawsuit and a range of other legal issues. of course, the russia investigation and watching very closely his former personal attorney michael cohen amid mounting speculation he might cooperate with prosecutors. this suit in new york gets focus here at the white house, andrea. >> reporter: for the foundation they are grave. it would be a death blow. has accused the foundation of being a personal checkbo checkbe they were supposed to be serving the public good. all the the kientnd of great reporting done in 2016. she seeks to dissolve the foundation to have trump pay restitution and there's a referral here to the federal employment commission and irs. if any actions were done noeg

president trump tweeted the sleazy new york democrats and their disgraced attorney general er eric schneidermaning they can to sue me on a foundation that took in $18 million and gave out more money than it took in. i won't settle this case. let's bring back the panel. this is a civil case not criminal meaning the president might be forced to fight this in court. nia-malika, i think it's clear these charges are ugly but confusing. >> and some of this about the charitable foundation and its giving, there was reporting done during the campaign. if you're the president you are worried there will be a discovery phase and everything but i think it underline what is we knew about the campaign, about fishiness with his campaign, his foundation. if the charitable money was mixed with his business so this is something we'll find out. >> one of the things that's clear in the complaint is that political activities are not supposed to be part of a foundation like this and without question president trump used the trump foundation for political activities when he was running around in iowa giving out these

foundation calls it politics at its very worst, blames it on the previous attorney general, eric schneidermaniller has more. >> the lawsuit describes numerous examples of alleged financial abuse by the trump foundation. among them, a fund raiser for veterans in january of 2016, a week before the iowa caucuses. the televised event was used to benefit the campaign. the suit says mr. trump's use of the campaign -- the foundation to benefit his campaign was willful and knowing. and the mar-a-largo resort received a $100,000 donation. the money came from trump foundation. the president wasted in time criticizing the lawsuit and going after new york's previous attorney general, eric schneider man initiated the investigation. he resigned last month among sexual abuse. the president said the a.g. is doing everything to sue me. i won't settle this case. the spokesman for the foundation sent out a statement saying in part, the president himself or through his companies have contributed more than $8 million. worth noting here, according to the lawsuit, mr. trump has not contributed any personal money to

yet, because they don't know how to counter it, it turns into ultimately, defraud or people like schneidermanr weinstein, the nature of this kind of attack, the misogyny, my first book in 2001, misogyny and sexism, homophobia, racism, it lives on the left. again, it is not about if you don't like something someone has said, we can deal with that. we've all made mistakes. this is a concerted, scripted attitude. for other women to support it and try to s normalize it, sally fields is well-liked to some degree.iz to try to normalize this debasement means that they have gone off the rails. >> tucker: i get that people have disagreements with trump but these people are scary. i don't think they should be near power. they are starting to scare me. i'm not just saying that. i watch this stuff every day. tammy, great to see you. a smart analysis as always. >> thank you. >> tucker: the beauty of being a liberal political analyst in 2018 is it's really simple. no matter what the issue is or the concern might be, it is safc but you can tie it directly to drop, no matter what, hurricanes, higher gas pric

schneiderman never had the guts to bring this ridiculous case, which lingered in their office for almost two years. now he resigned, his office in disgrace, and dhis disciples brought it when we would not settle. okay, that's a lot. i want to bring in the reporter who broke this news. thanks for being here. david, let's start with you. what have you learned about this story? >> well, this began with some "washington post" reporting back in 2016. we saw this pattern where trump was basically using his foundation as a piggy bank. one of the big rules about foundations is the money in them has to be used for charitable purposes. he was doing the opposite. as you said, spending money to settle business debts, to give away money during his campaign events to make him look like a better c better candidate, to buy a portrait that hung on the wall of his sports bar in miami. all that was being investigated for these 20 months. now it's come out in this extraordinary lawsuit where in addition to seeking millions in damages, the new york attorney general was trying to bar trump for ten years from

. >> and this is something that the former attorney general eric schneiderman, who's been disgraced, was looking into. what's interesting is donald trump won't be able to use his typical m.o. that it's a witch hunt. the person who's in charge of the current attorney general is only there interim, and she's not seeking election for the seat. this is a career person who's looking to really wrap this up. i don't think she would go out there unless the facts were well in hand. >> very little has been sticking to this president. will this? >> i think so because i think that you have the stormy daniels front. you have michael cohen's case independent. you have the mueller probe. now you have this. so it's just another legal headache for this white house and for this president. i think that his erratic behavior is just going to get worse because this is very concerning, especially after running on the supposed corruption in the clinton foundation. it's interesting that now we're in a moment in which the trump foundation is under investigation. >> thank you both for being with us. we'll be r

schneiderman. this is a straightforward case of violation of the laws governing charitable foundations and nonprofit corporations in new york. >> joining me now was his take on the whole range of legal issues, alan dershowitz and author of the case against impeaching trump. it's always good to see you. let me start with what the president was talking about and clearly was focused a lot on this morning. he believes that the ig's report discredited the special counsel's probe, even though it has nothing to do with the russian probe and it exonerates him. what do you say? >> well, first of all i am not a trump whisperer. i've met the president three times in my life, always about the middle east. i'm very critical of many of his policies. >> he listens to you. let's clarify. he listens to you and he quotes you. >> that's fine. i hope people listen to me, that's my goal to have people listen to me. i fundamentally disagree with my friend rudy giuliani whether he says that there ought to be criminal pro

she is one the who brought this particular suit and who replaced eric schneiderman. let's all understand that no abusive man is indispensable. there are good people. >> great point. >> who can do the job. >> just took the file and said okay, peace. >> put all your stuff in a box to the left, i'm going to get down to work. number two, underwooded is an actual prosecutor not just trying to use being the ag to become the governor. when trump says oh, i will not settle this. no problem. we ain't asking you to settle this. she sees a crime that an -- she sees violation. >> a civil violationing. > that has happened and she wants those people to pay for their misdeeds. >> this is the question also. i mean, look, we got -- we've got a little window into michael cope's little financial world because a whistleblower starred sending out his suspicious activity reports and from that tiny keyhole, what did we see? he's getting $100,000 payments na r that from major corporations from a russian oligarch firm into there llc paying slush funds. that's one keyhole. another over here,

eric schneiderman are doing everything they can to sue me and the foundation that took in $18 million gave out to charity more money than it took in. i won't settle this case. rick? >> you know, at the risk of making light of it, everything in trump world is like the bizarre world episode of the seinfeld show where everything is the opposite of the way it was supposed to be. >> my favorite. >> his charitable organization, charity is supposed to give to people in need. the people in need that they gave to was the trump family. they paid off people with the charity. they commissioned that $10,000 portrait of him. they used it to make political contributions. everything that is the actual opposite of a charitable philanthropic enterprise and it speaks to the corrupt organization that they had from top to bottom. >> let me get you, joyce, to weigh in on what kind of legal risk this is for the president. i'm told by a source close to donald trump that as with the trump university case, when he senses legal risk, he usually does settle. >> you know, he's in legal peril here not just on the
