sam stein, i want to show an example of the president tweeting something this weekend and an instant fact checking of him that was kind of breath taking to read. first from the president's twitter feed, "why does the mueller team have 13 hardened democrats, some big crooked hillary supporters and zero republicans?" you've got to admire the capitalization "another dem recently added does anyone think this is fair? and yet there is no collusion." and then from glenn kessler. "the way trump tweets about how investigators can't be trusted because they donated to the democrats, it's easy to forget he donated to hillary clinton in 2002, 2003, 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2009. melania, ivanka and don jr. also made donations to clinton. >> sometimes you have to step back and see how loose this president is with the truth. we sometimes forget to notice the clear errors among the tweets. i will say this, i don't think this weekend was a particular great sign for the president and his legal team in terms of the strategy that they're bringing to the mueller probe. first of all, let's step back and just

philip rucker, tamara keith and sam stein. good evening and welcome to you all. fifth, lied like to read you a quote from some of your fellow journalists and we'll call this byline we begin with "trump is not consulting with top advisers including chief of staff john f. kelly and chief white house lawyer don mcgahn on his russia legal choices or his comments about the probe," according to one person with knowledge of his actions who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe sensitive conversations. the president continues to complain his lawyers are not protecting him and that deputy attorney general rod j. rosenstein, who is supervising the probe is up to mischief," said the person who spoke to trump in recent days. can you shed any information on what mischief rosenstein is up to and help us fill in the blanks here, philip? >> i think it's two-fold. the white house staff, the people working in the government, john kelly, don mcgahn and others would frankly not want to be a part with the russian discussions. they don't want anything to do with the presiden

rosen stein has been the top official overseeing the russia investigation since jeff sessions recusedlf last month. that infuriated president trump. >> he had expected a certain measure of personal loyalty, which is not how the u.s. government is supposed to work. >> on the night of the comey firing, the chaos continued. >> what prompted that? what was -- >> you'll have to ask the deputy attorney general. >> he just started two weeks ago, would the white house have told him to do that? >> the memo was critical of comey's handling of hillary clinton's e-mails before the election. >> why now are you concerned about the hillary clinton e-mail investigation when as a candidate, donald trump was praising it from the campaign trail? >> i think you're looking at the wrong set of facts here. in other words, you're going back to the campaign. this man is the president of the united states, he acted decisively today, he took the recommendation of his deputy attorney general who oversees -- >> that makes no sense. >> trump gave what appeared to be his real reason. >> i said, you know, this russi

ok well i know the second half we're talking to misfire stein at least you are and that when it turns to this headline to kind of go with what you're talking about with him of the past two episodes the end of the low volatility regime why buybacks are clear and present danger to the end almost market they helped fuel. so according to the i.m.f. estimates recently. large u.s. corporations have experienced negative net equity issuance of three trillion dollars since two thousand and nine due to share buybacks u.s. corporate debt piled on both strong and we can't sit at an all time high of thirteen point seven trillion dollars so our team a scout all looks at this data and what they're saying is that share buybacks accounted to forty percent of total earnings per share growth since two thousand and nine and seventy two percent of earnings growth since twenty twelve so when you look at these markets that have been showing signs of volatility recently. this is the basically the buybacks have been causing the absence of volatility for the past nine years and if those and then the volatility

sam stein joining us, the politics editor for the daily beast and msnbc contributor. course have michael steele and jim messina. sam stein, they're trying to buy power plants with the crown prince said in an interview on "60 minutes" if iran gets nuclear weapons, the saudis will also get nuclear weapons. for him to buy nuclear reactors and potentially not affirming they won't enrich uranium that can be used for nuclear weapons is pretty significant but we're still trying to sell them power plants. that's why rick perry is sitting there. he went to london and had a meeting with the saudis last week. >> a difficult, odd standing here. the nuclear deal could potentially be blown up in may. that's what the senate leader said his expectations were. at the same time, we are potentially selling nuclear power plant material to the saudis. we don't know whether we'll get the firm commitment to stop enrichment. we have the lingering possibility of direct talks with kim in north korea over their own nuclear weapons program. i don't see how you can juggle all these three simultan

sam stein, no hope was given in 2016 from hillary clinton's campaign. the words going around on the internet right now. i'm so glad that eddie brought up wisconsin. it's kind of hard to suggest that people in wisconsin are retrograde and looking backwards and don't want good things for women and blacks and hispanics and others other than white males when hillary clinton didn't even campaign in wisconsin. are there no mirrors in the clinton household? i don't think there are, sam. >> i think she might have made one stop in the spring in wisconsin, i forget, but she did not campaign in wisconsin. there is a -- i'm with eddie here in that i think these two things can exist simultaneously. but if you look most recently at what's happened in american politics, a lot of the democratic enthusiasm has been driven in part by an anti-trump backlash but also by a sort of renaissance notion that they need to focus on the core of the party, in that case it would be working class not just white working class, black working class voters, teachers and union members so

daniel caligiuri and franco the sound so involved in the build up have to keep the room a year stein was not amused shout to win for the third time in a row and stone calls for the champions league. and shocked frankfurt could also be heading for the champions league an unlikely prospect at the start of the campaign against hanover a go from danny de coster was enough to settle matters his first goal in the bonus league kind of his defense gave him all the time in the world the goal should not have counted though it turns out it wasn't a corner but the video assistant referee stayed quiet on the arm of the v.a.r. did get involved the referee on the field blew for a penalty for hanover. but with the help of the video assistant to some action down at the bottom might stay or peril a close perilously close to the drop down in sixteenth place a fine mess that they're in with them they've gone down before and they've lived to tell the tale their opponents hamburger on the other hand have never ever ever been down a fact that club never ever ever misses an opportunity to let us know they w

mark stein joins us next with his view of it. stay tuned. >> hmmm, i think people thought there would be a smoking gun here. did we miss something? each year sarah climbs 58,007 steps. that's the height of mount everest. because each day she chooses to take the stairs. at work, at home... even on the escalator. that can be hard on her lower body, so now she does it with dr. scholl's orthotics. clinically proven to relieve and prevent foot, knee or lower back pain, by reducing the shock and stress that travel up her body with every step she takes. so keep on climbing, sarah. you're killing it. dr. scholl's. born to move. you wouldn't accept from any one else. so why accept it from your allergy pills? most pills don't finish the job because they don't relieve nasal congestion. flonase allergy relief is different. flonase relieves sneezing, itchy, watery eyes and a runny nose, plus nasal congestion, which pills don't. flonase helps block 6 key inflammatory substances. most pills only block one. and 6 is greater than 1. start your da
