the new york times" ignored that threat and has both stated and implied president trump did indeed participate in tax fraud. and one of the longest investigative articles ever published by "the new york timese president trump participate ed in dubious tax schemes during the 1990s including instances of outright fraud, that greatly increased the fortune he received from his parents. the times piece based on confidential tax returns and financial records paint the clearest picture yet of the financial history of the guy who calls himself the king of debt. mr. trump received the equivalent today -- received what is the equivalent today of at least $413 million from his father's real estate empire starting when he was a toddler and continuing to this day. much of this money came to mr. trump because he helped his parents dodge taxes. he and his siblings set up a sham corporation to disguise millions of dollars in gifts from their parents, records and interviews show. records indicate that mr. trump helped his father take improper tax deductions worth millions more. he also helped formulate a strategy to under value his parents' real estate holdings by hundreds of millions of dollars on tax ret

the new york times." as far as i'm concerned, "the new york times" is the eighth wonder of the world. i do not want to imagine an america without "the new york times" or with a lesser "new york times." but when it comes to how they handled the information that they had about fbi interests in the two presidential candidates in 2016, at some point, there presumably will have to be a little bit of a come to jesus moment about that, because that is a heck of a thing for "the new york times" to have sat on and not published, especially given how dead the horse was they were aggressively beating at the time every day when it came to hillary clinton's e-mails. they knew trump was the subject of a counterintelligence investigation at the fbi at the time and they didn't tell us? "the times" has sort of apologized for that halloween 2016 story since it ran. they've never run a correction. they've sort of explained their own disappointment in it. but now we know. "the times" knew trump was under active fbi counterintelligence investigation before the election, they didn't publish it. "the times"

the reach of the kremlin —— fertiliser. at least from the point of view of the new york times. on a similar theme, the japan times. , the japan times front page. this potentialfor the us to pull out of the historic post—cold war treaty to avoid the build—up of nuclear weapons. some might well read this and say, hang on, does this have echoes of the start of a new nuclear arms race? again, this is a very interesting ta ke again, this is a very interesting take from the japanese times on this. we have the indication that the us are pulling out of this treaty because they are saying that russia has violated some of the rules —— times. the treaty banned all nuclear missiles with land—based missiles with a certain range. the japanese times are saying this is not the reason the us is pulling out at all. the reason the us is pulling out is because they are fearing that, while russia and the us are constrained by this treaty, that china has potentially been building up weapons of its own, and that is the real reason the us could be pulling out. so again, i really strong geopolitical theme in this story. and i suppose there

the senate intelligence committee member, senator abc ngus king a our correspondents an analysts are standing by. first, let's go to kara. tell us about the bombshell report in "the new york times." >> reporter: "the new york timesis reporting that donald trump was involved in dubious tax schemes during the 1990s, including allegations of outright fraud, that "the new york times" said they reviewed confidential tax returns, financial statements and spoke with several people that worked with donald trump's father as part of their investigation. they said that they found that trump and his siblings helped to reduce their taxes by setting up sham corporations to disguise millions of dollars in gifts they received. they say they also found that trump helped his father take improper tax deductions and helped trump -- and trump had helped to formulate a strategy to undervalue his real estate holdings by hundreds of millions of dollars. this all goes to efforts by donald trump to help prompt -- you know, increase his wealth, which comes, of course, as donald trump has said, you know, he's a self-made man. this "new york times" investigation shows there were some tax schemes involved in this, wolf. >> and there were oth

the white house in a lengthy statement saying, it's sad to witness the misleading attack against the trump family by the failing "new york times." many decades ago the irs reviewed and signed off on these transactions. "the new york times" and other media outlets' credibility with the american people is at an all-time low because they are consumed with attacking the president and his family 24/7 instead of reporting the news. well, criminal prosecution is unlikely because of the statute of limitations, but the new york state tax department has launched a review of the allegations. "the new york times" is calling its story historic saying the paper had to bring in extra workers overnight just to print the story, which runs 14,000 words and takes up 8 pages. >>> president trump's taking direct aim at the woman who accuses his supreme court nominee of sexual assault. at a campaign rally last night the president said brett kavanaugh's life is in tatters and he ridiculed christine blasey ford as the crowd erupted in laughter. a stunning reversal from just days ago when the president called dr. ford a very credible witness. abc's emily rau has more from washington. good morning, emily. >> reporter: good morning, maggie. pres

[ laughter ] 'what's to stop them? we have a lot of people who live on lakes in the summer and winter someplace else. when they come back in the spring, their house would be occupied.'" ohh. [ laughter ] so this lady thinks that poor hondurans are going to walk all the way up the length of mexico, somehow get past i.c.e. and the border patrol, then walk another 1,800 miles to live on a lake in minnesota in the winter.

the $100 payment had been brokered earlier this summer, and is related to u.s. military efforts in syria, the timing of its delivery appeared highly suspicious, with one u.s. official telling "the new york times" -- "the timing of this is no coincidence." turkish officials have said khashoggi was tortured and murdered by a squad of 15 saudi hit men who dismembered his body. video and audio recordings from inside the consulate reportedly show khashoggi was beaten, tortured, and beheaded, with his fingers cut off, and his body dismembered. this is secretary of state mike pompeo speaking about his visit to saudi arabia. >> they made no exceptions to who they would hold accountable. they were very clear. they understand the importance of this issue. they are determined to get to the bottom of it, and they will conduct the report. we will all get a chance to see it. he promised he would achieve that for us. folks did he say of mr. khashoggi was alive or dead? >> i don't to talk about the facts. they do not want to, either. they want the opportunity to complete this investigation in a thorough way. amy: khashoggi's suspected murder has caused a diplomatic crisis between the u.s. and saudi arabia, p

nbc news has not independently seen the documents or confirmed the time's reporting. and "the new york timeses allegations are false and highly defamatory. there was no fraud or tax evasion by anyone. all estate matters were handled by licensed attorneys, licensed cpas who followed all laws and rules strictly." and the affairs were handled by other trump family members that were not experts themselves and therefore should the times state or imply that they trump participated in any other crime, it would be exposing itself to defamation. trrs the white house described the report as a misleading attack on the family and says the irs reviewed and signed off years ago. >> and co author of the political play book. now, what extent of legal trouble could the president be in if at all over this new york times report? >> they've opened an investigation into the times' findings. i don't expect them to charge trump. they may definitely try to ding him with civil penalties and try to get some of the money they're owed and i think it's -- shatters trump's image as this self-made man when he was getting

sort of a sense of what charles harter, the president's attorney is saying about this huge piece in "the new york times" this afternoon. he says "the new york timesons of fraud and tax evasion are 100% false and highly defamatory. there was no fraud, or tax evasion by anyone. the facts upon which the times bases its false allegations are extremely inaccurate and all state matters were handled by licensed attorneys, licensed cpas and licensed real estate appraisers who followed all laws and rules strictly. the times is saying that the president engaged in tax schemes that involved his father's business dealings. as soon as i do, i promise to pass it along to you. >> thank you very much my friend. i did raise this issue with kentucky's republican governor matt bevan about all this about whether this represents something in the bigger scheme of things. >> i think we have gotten so far up the field of the things that the american people care about that are germane as to what is important in america at this time and in world history, i think this is turning into nothing but a smear campaign by people who have not gotten over the fact that hillary clin

sean hannity of fox news, and now "the new york times" reports the chinese and russians are routinely eavesdropping. nbc news has not confirmed aspects of "the new york times" report. according to the "times," the president also calls billionaires like stephen schwarzman and steve wynn, big campaign contributors with major holdings in china and contacts with china's government. as a candidate, mr. trump regularly attacked hillary clinton for e-mailing on a private server. >> her server was easily hacked by foreign governments, perhaps even by her financial backers in communist china. >> reporter: president obama reluctantly gave up his beloved blackberry when he took office. eight years later joking about the government replacement. >> the phone doesn't work. you know, you can't play your music on it. so, basically, it's like, does your 3-year-old have one of those play phones where -- [ laughter ] >> reporter: today, president trump called the "times" report a fake story, tweeting, "i rarely use a cell phone, and when i do, it's government authorized. i like hard lines." but former white house aide omarosa manigault newman tweeted, "he always used his per

we've had a couple of leaks overnight in various publications including the new york times and the washington post the new york times going as far as to say that those men were waiting inside that. entered killed within a two hour period and more gruesome details saying that his body was dismembered by a bone soul that the group again none of this is being backed up by evidence which is why it's so complicated it's also an incredibly loaded political story but when you look at that footage that's being issued just come out in the last hour or so of the c.c.t.v. it also shows really harrowing picture. fiance just outside here standing behind the gates waiting for him because of course he went into there is a second visit in a week he went back to finalize divorce papers he previous been married in saudi arabia he wanted to marry his fiance and under turkish will to do that you have to prove that you're not married so this is why he was going in there he had been called back by the saudis also interesting we just briefly a report in the new york times saying that u.s. intelligence intercepted conversations between sau
