i don't believe steve cohen will overpay. he bid initially 2.6 billion.earlier in the year. remember he pulled that back after some disagreements with the owners, the wilpon family but he's back in it now and i only hedge this because cheryl, you know, life is strange. he's 100% into this barring some change and, you know, again, i always hedge but it looks like if he really wants to buy this team, cheryl, he's got the cash. a-rod is raising money from multiple sources. jpmorgan is helping him do this. harris has indicated that they don't want to pay much more. they may go to 2 billion but not that much more. steves got the money to pay up for this. i'm not saying he will though by the way, depends on how much pushback he gets, maybe they want 2.6 billion and he drops out but as far as i know right now, my sources are saying, he's 100% in, barring some change, and he does have the deep pockets to do it. again, second round bids august 31. they should get this thing wrap ped up some time in the fall cheryl back to you. >> cheryl: i love when you cover spor

it has been reported steve cohen is the likely suitor. extremely well-capitalized and will likely put some investment in the mets that could reinvigorate the mets and transform them. i think the mets have a lot of upside, it is a terrific market and a terrific opportunity for new owners that of the moment looks like it will be steve cohen. alix: definitely fun to read all of those headlines. what are your investors talking to you about as your set up for the next 18 months to look for those opportunities. what are they talking about. george: i think you want to be patient and in growth segments. things that are being accelerated, the pandemic has accelerated digital and direct to consumer marketing. that is where we are looking. patience is key. guy: for sure. -- alix: for sure. thanks. this is bloomberg. ♪ ritika: time for the bloomberg business. a look at the biggest business stories in the news right now. the u.s. airline industry is coming up with ways to get more travelers on board. to itshas put an end much hated to hundred dollars

he owned the atlanta team but he owns the team outright for a guy like steve cohen to own a team like that and have a real hand in operations is probably one of the things that makes him feel like it's worth the money even if the losses are there. you have a franchise, it is yours and you can make this thing. if you were a fan since you were a kid, you could make this into a great, great team. this could be one of those legacy items beyond what you were thinking about with regards to your hedge fund career. i feel like we've been here before cohen has been around the mets for so long now that i hope something happens one way or the other. >> if he doesn't make them into a great team, then what? we just assume, right, that it's got to pan out, but it's still going to be a lot of work. throw enough money at it >>> finally, united airlines is announcing it will no longer charge a $200 fee to change domestic flights the move is permanent and aimed at helping people as they navigate the covid pandemic. tsa said air traffic is hovering around 30% of its levels united down 30% and still down

there was logic, steve cohen being bidder for the mets for money reasons and a lot more, there is inherent logic microsoft becoming the winner of this thing for a lot of reasons including technical. they have the money. they have a much bigger balance sheet, a cleaner balance sheet. so that is where i think you have to give the edge. nobody knows for sure because politics is a huge part of this. i mean, let's be real clear here. general atlantic run by bill ford, sequoia run at least in part by doug leone, were smart enough to recruit larry ellison who is friends with trump to do this deal. larry ellison does have a cloud business. remember politics here are fascinating and but if you look at it on paper, neil, it has got -- you know, we should throw out logic. logic doesn't work all the time. logically microsoft should win. back to you. neil: that will be good news for your niece. so that was the real story there, that your niece could be affecting this. so we'll watch it very closely, my friend. always good to see you, charlie gasparino. there are other business reporters on the planet.

just weeks into the trump era, michael cohen, elliott broidy, steve wynn, they'll be taking over money matters for the republican party, right? all the best people. but then there's one other guy on the list, louis dejoy. he, alongside michael cohen and elliott broidy and steve wynn, was the guy announced in that press release. louis dejoy is now trump's appointee as postmaster general, the guy who trump has installed to take over the post office as the president embarks on an admitted overt campaign to mess up the mail, to mess up the post office so it can't handle the ballots that are going to be mailed in for the election. >> they need that money in order to have the post office work so it can take all of these millions and millions of ballots. if we don't make a deal, that means they don't get the money. that means they can't have universal mail-in voting. they just can't have it. >> the president appointed this guy, louis dejoy, republican fund-raiser with no experience in postal anything other than him being invested heavily in companies that compete against the post office, and

. >> respectfully, sir, it's not just steve bannon, roger stone, michael cohen, what does it say about your judgment >> i have no idea. >> reporter: president trump said he knew nothing about the fund raising effort longtime ally kris kobach said the president said my project has my blessing. >> i didn't know that. i didn't know about ban non's involvement. it was something i felt was inappropriate to be doing. >> reporter: steve bannon's court hearing ended today with his attorney entering a plea of not guilty on his behalf he was released on a $5 million with restrictions against private jet or yacht travel. >>> to joe biden's big night in the middle of his third run for the white house he is now just hours away from accepting his party's nomination for president. it comes after former president obama's denunciation of president trump last night at tl convention prizes peter that's alluded him twice before, formerly accepting his party's nomination for president. the campaign playing this video tonight. >> a passionate argument, sympathetic listening, willingness to make adjustments

knowing what trump was like can i suggest to you that knowing and caring a 2 different thing steve bannon michael cohen poll manifold rick gates roger stone michael flynn they've all the the been indicted or the names been in the frame for doing something terribly illegal and the reality is the voters that the democrats have to get to vote democrat they just don't care. well some of them do and that's why we won the house and 28 teams and won governorships and legislative seats across the country including places where trump has won but i would agree with you that's my that's the initial point that i made myself too they knew what they were voting for and they did it anyway because to a certain extent they felt well that's how you do business in real estate in new york he's an entertainer that's what entertainers do there's always going to be a little bit of grifting off your name i do think it's different when that comes smack dab. confronted with the things that people need now that we need relief now that we need to get our mail from the post office now that there are things that we need from the go

steve bannon. it's roger stone, michael flynn, paul manafort, michael cohen. what does it say about your judgment and the culture of l lawlessness -- >> there was great lawlessness by the obama administration. they spied on our campaign. they had tremendous lawlessness. i wasn't involved in the project. i have no idea who was. >> let's debunk the lie. there was no illegal spying despite bill barr saying that's what it was called. the idea that -- i mean, obama was almost famously scandal free. what is this projection? donald trump has a circle of people and it's getting closer and closer to him. he's an unindicted co-conspirator in the southern district of new york. what does that culture say to you as someone who prosecuted organizations? >> i have. donald trump speaks and acts very much like a mob boss. as with all organizations, criminal or otherwise, people take their cues from the top. what we have seen over the last three and a half years is that donald trump views the presidency as his personal piggy bank, as a vehicle for him to explore his personal in

president, this isn't just about steve bannon, it's about michael cohen, rick gates, paul manafort, michael flynn, the list continues. i said, what does it say about your judgment, what does it say about the culture of lawlessness in the upper echelons of your campaign? the president said, "i don't know about that," then he pivoted to a more comfortable place and attacked the obama administration. he was also asked by jeff mason about the russia bounties issue and the president said he doesn't know if that's true. "the new york times" reports, and i'm preaching to the choir here because you know this better than anybody, the secretary of state warned russia's foreign minister against those bounties, so that suggests, as our reporting indicates, that it's legitimate. >> and just picking up on your previous point about all those indictments and convictions or guilt y pleas from people arou the president and his campaign, phil, you ran through the list, let's run through the list again, we're putting it up onscreen. this is a litany of people at the top echelons of the 2016 campaign. phil? >>

steve bannon. it's roger stone, michael cohen. it's rick gates, paul manafort, michael cohen. what's it say about your judgment these are the kind of people you are affiliated with? >> well, i have no idea. >> how did these people get into trump's inner circle? trump has no idea. i should note we cutoff the sound bite because the president then went on into a lie about the obama administration. there is no need to amplify those lies. but trump made an effort to brand himself as the president of law and order. look at the people he surrounds himself with. look at him. robert mueller detailed nearly a dozen potential instances of obstruction of justice by trump during the russia investigation. trump paid $2 million in fines and closed his family foundation after admitting that it had used donations to pay campaign and business expenses, some personal expenses, too. the prosecutors in that case are still investigating trump's banking and tax conduct. federal prosecutors in new york, the ones that bring charges -- that are bringing charges against steve bannon are looking at alleg

cohen. that did not work out well. number two, elliot broidy, that did not work out well. but also, steve wynn, of course, also, would soon have to go. resigning from the rnc as its finance chairman, amid sexual harassment allegations that led him to, not only give up the top-money job at the republican party, he also had to give up ownership of his own, gigantic company, and pay his company $20 million. so that was really -- i mean, this one document. i understand why the rnc has deleted it now, right? this is one for the ages. just weeks into it, they'll be taking over money matters for the republican party. right? all the best people. but then, there's one other guy on the list. louis dejoy. he, alongside michael cohen and elliot broidy and steve wynn, was the guy announced in that press release. louis dejoy is, now, trump's appointee as postmaster general. the guy, who trump has installed to take over the post office, as the president embarrasses on an admitted overt campaign. to mess up the mail. to mess up the post office so it can't handle the ballots that are going to be mailed in

when i heard that -- saw that clip from congressman schiff i was wondering, is steve bannon a roger stone or a michael cohencan you hear me? there you are. >> it's a really hard question. i can hear you. can you hear me? >> yes, go ahead. >> so look, i agree with representative schiff. yeah, representative schiff is dead on. they're really all the same. right? they're all grifters, including michael cohen so in that sense there's no distinction and i think he's absolutely right to point to this fundamentally whatever steve bannon is going to do, it's going to be what's best for steve bannon. and that's exactly what donald trump does, but we should really not forget that right now the american people have to decide whether they're going to vote for someone who not only surrounds himself with people who are being literally indicted for lying, cheating and stealing from the american people at a time when we're looking at 40 million possible evictions. steve bannon was pulled off of $25 million yacht when some americans don't have a job. so the question is how much does this impact the ability for congress to c

steve bannon, paul manafort, roger stone, general flynn, michael cohen, rick gates, just to name a few. what are we hearing from the white house, from trump world about all this so far, shannon? >> reporter: we're hearing the same response that we often hear from the white house, a number of the names, the president's former associates is indicted, the white house trying to distance themselves, saying they have nothing to do with steve bannon or his time at the white house. he left the white house a number of years ago. the president, though, last month brought this group up after there was reporting that a section of wall they built had been eroding. the president said he disagreed with their plan to build the wall and said it was only done -- and this is from a tweet that he posted -- as a way to make me look bad and perhaps it doesn't even work, he said. there was also a "new york times" interview back from 2019 where this issue came up with chris cobat, the former kansas secretary of state. he said that the president did support this effort and he was quoted as saying the president

steve bannon. it's roger stone, rick gates, paul manafort, robert cohen.hat does that say -- a culture of lawlessness -- >> there was great lawlessness in the obama administration. they spied on our campaign illegally. if you look at all of the things and all of the scandals they had. they had tremendous lawlessness. but i know nothing about -- i was not involved in the project. >> that was our pool reporter there, our colleague geoff bennett in that back and forth with the president there with the president -- he didn't answer his question and went straight to some what aboutism that he thinks matches that. shannon, steve bannon had been working his way back into the good graces of the president and of the west wing that had improved. jason miller, he's very close to him. is this a big shoe that fell on trump world? >> so, i mean, my reporting over the years indicated that steve bannon wasn't someone the president was talking to regularly at all. i don't know when the last time they talked was, but, yeah, he had sort of become persona nongrata in trump's

steve bannon fue arrestado cuando paseaba por las costas de connecticut . >> la última detención de una lista de asociados del presidente, su exjefe de campaña, michael cohenomberos continúan luchando con los 400 incendios forestales, amenazan con quemar 30 mil edificios, estamos en las zonas afectadas, ¿qué tal? cómo está el panorama?. >> es desolador, no solo porque los incendios no cesan, sino que porque miles de viviendas están en riesgo de quedar así, así sobrevivió la chimenea y el letrero donde lo ofrecían en venta. >> sin control y sin el mínimo aviso, en california las llamas arrasa todo a su paso el fuego no discrimina entre cruzar carreteras y devorar viviendas que no resisten el embate. >> feo, triste . >> son casi 400 incendios por todo el estado, aunque al norte desde las montañas de santa cruz, incluyendo niños no dejan de llegar a albergues . >> no me quiero quemar. >> con miles de acres quemados, la destrucción es evidente, una persona ya perdió la vida, en su lucha por cielo y tierra ,los bomberos se cuidan como pueden. >> nomás pensar en mi familia y saber que todo lo tengo que hacer bien . >> los incendio han originado que toda la bahía

steve bannon? >> yeah, and i think we recall that michael cohen said he doesn't have to say things out loud. -- heeople know what he's thinking with his m.o., with paul stone and paul manna fortd saying i long strong people and those messages are enough to send a message to steve bannon. his lawyer to talk to steve bannon's lawyer and just say, you know, tell him to hang in there and stand strong and so that is enough. so he does have that overwhelming power. now at this moment it is difficult for president trump to offer that pardon before the election. but a case like this, likely, won't go to trial inform after the election. so in that lame duck period, that seems like a time when president trump could offer that without facing political consequence. >> as much as the president liked to distance himself from these folks i want to remind people and read from michael cohen who said i pled guilty for the benefit and at the direction of and in coordination with individual one, reading from his prepared statement, and for the record, individual one is donald j. trump. i just want people to not lose

steve bannan to. it is roger stone, michael flynn, gates, manafort, cohen. what does it say about the people -- >> i have no idea. >> in a culture of great lawlessness. >> there was great lawlessness in the obama administration. they spied upon our campaign illegally. if you look at all of the things and the scandal they had they had tremendous lawlessness. i know nothing about -- i was not involved in the project. i have no why who was. >> what's your reaction right now, not only to that argument that i didn't know what was going on, but also to the fact there are so many people surrounding the president that have found themselves in hot water? >> lindsey, this reflects poorly, not only on steve bannon and mike flynn, and roger stone, and so many other trump associates who have fallen, it reflects on donald trump's judgment. who does he surround himself with? it sure looks like he surrounds himself with -- perhaps not exclusively, but largely criminals, grifters, those who would abuse power and the privilege that donald trump gave them by naming them to hig

paul manafort, michael flynn, roger stone, michael cohen and steve bannon. voters seem to care a lot more about healthcare, about this pandemic, about jobs. so how much is joe biden going to be talking about this part of donald trump is legacy in this campaign? >> i certainly wouldn't expect to hear this tonight. you know, as you say voters are really focused on how he's going to make a difference in their lives and he's going to use this opportunity tonight to really talk about that. but i do think it reflects a larger fundamental failing of the presidency that people are stick and tired of which is that donald trump has used his time in office, he has used the most powerful platform in the world essentially to benefit himself, to enrich his friends, to enrich the people who worked for him. he has focused the entirety of the trump administration on what is good for donald trump. rather than on what is good for the american people. so i think that's something that people are fired of. i think in november they are going to reject it and i think again there co

last time get arrested and indicted, and it's not just steve ban, we can look at all the individuals. bannon, manafort, stone, flynn, gates, cohen charged has been convicted and bannon awaits trial and legally is presumed innocent until proven guilty. question is as you argue for re-election, why does donald trump have so many people around him, hire and rely on so many people who end up convicted felons? >> why are there so many people around obama and biden not locked up? greatest legal outrage from the white house, rivaling watergate, if not worse, intelligence communica community used to spy on political opponents is revolting. had one plea to the fact fisa application put in inaccurate. >> i have to ask you, you just said don't go backwards? talking about the biden convention? booked you to talk about the -- >> that's not backwards, happened, and more happening in the future. >> in all seriousness, i think it's worth you saying if you have an answer why so many convicted felons around donald trump. >> first give bill barr credit, unlike you did in the previous section, if someone perceived as being close, i don't think stev

steve bannon. i'm curious your reaction. we can look at all of these individuals, bannon, manafort, stone, flynn, gates, cohen.veryone who has been charged is convicted and bannon awaits trial and is legally presumed innocent until proven guilty. >> right. >> the question as you argue for the re-election which is why does donald trump have so many people around him who end up convicted felons? >> why are there so many people around obama and biden who haven't been locked up? we saw the greatest legal outrage coming from the white house, rivaling watergate, perhaps worse. the fact that susan rice, jim comey, mr. brennan used the intelligence community to spy on their political opponents is revolting. there was a fiez zsa -- >> i've got to ask you. >> yes, go ahead. >> don't go backward. do you think it's last week and we're talking about the biden -- i booked you to discuss -- >> that's not backwards. that plea just happened and there's more coming. >> i booked you to discuss this convention and in all seriousness i think it is worth you saying and our viewers hearing if you have an answer, why so many convicte

you see steve bannon indicted for ripping off republicans who sent him money to build a wall. it's not just bannon. flynn, manafort, michael cohenthe swamp and build the wall. in terms of the speech tonight, he has to make it clear: soul of america. this election is a referendum about donald trump and about trump's record over the last 4 years. do you want another 4 years of this? that's the point he has to deliver tonight. >> do you think joe biden is capable of delivering as juan said? >> well, joe biden has political strength but public speaking has never been one of them. it's not likely one he will all of a sudden get. it's hard to do a speech like this without a crowd. imagine not having anyone start a chant or shout your name or start crazy applause and you get to stand there and bask in that energy. instead, you and greg are fantastic at doing monologues and you read into a prompter. during the pandemic you don't have audience feedback. that's hard and sad. but i think it will be okay. i think it's hard to screw up a prepared speech reading off the teleprompter. when you see biden and harris into interviews like this wee
