since trump won the u.s. election, netanyahu's far-right government has announced the construction of hundreds of settlement housing units -- as well as the first brand new settlement in two decades -- in the israeli-occupied west bank. trump's pick for ambassador to israel, david friedman, is a longtime political and financial supporter of israel's settlements, which are illegal under international law. netanyahu is a close friend of the kushner family, jared kushner in advisor to president trump and also his son-in-law. in washington state, lawyers are suing the federal government over the arrest and detention of daniel ramirez medina, who was arrested friday by agents with immigration and customs enforcement, or ice, even though the 23-year-old has permission to live and work in the united states under president obama's daca program. that is deferred action for childhood arrivals. his lawyers have called his detention unprecedented and unjustified. ramirez was arrested when ice agents came to his father's

how come trump knows manafort. why are they all knowing each other is my question, to start with. >> you know, i spent a fair amount of time writing political satire, and when you list things like that, i can't answer that question. roger stone has been at donald trump's side. i remember him escorting trump onto a convention floor several conventions ago when he was going to run for president and we thought it was a joke. the question about paul manafort, who was engaged in helping prose, you mentioned soviet. it's funny i had that same instinct to call them soviets. prorussian ukraines. there's entanglement. one of the things that helped trump is the different skeins of this raise so many questions that it's hard to focus on any one strain and say that's what we have to question. the question i think really comes down to the senate republicans who have looked at trump as their instrument for getting a lot of good things done and have tended to overlook a lot of things. are they beginning to see this as a series of

it is tied to trump's victory. highest count came on the first day after the election with the numbers diminishing steadily after that. more than a third of the incidents directly referenced either trump, my make america great again slogan or remarks about grabbing women. i'm joined more by the southern poverty. what is it correlation? is it cause yalty. what can you find here in the data? >> i think you've been over a couple of the key points. one, it was related to the election because it was a huge outburst of these incidents starting immediately after the election, and two in analyzing all of the incidents, we found 37% of the perpetrators as you said, either named president trump by saying something like, you know, yelling to a woman wearing a hijab. you go back to your country, now donald trump is president. that kind of thing. or the make america great slogan or the grabbing women comment. it wasn't particularly only anti-semitic acts and attacks that we saw, basically every minority in america was attacked

trump: so, sit down. donald trump did not get a standing ovation.leave out the part, they never sat down. they leave that out. my first major speech was at cpac. probably five or six years ago, first major political speech. and you were there. i loved it, i love the people and the commotion. they did these polls where i was -- i went through the roof and i was not even running. it gave me an idea. i got concerned when i saw what was happening in the country. and i said let's go to it. it was very exciting. i walked the stage at cpac. i will never forget it, really. i had very little notes and even less preparation. so when you have practically no notes and no preparation and you leave and everyone was thrilled, i said i think i like this business. i would have come last year but i was worried that at that time i would be too controversial. we wanted border security and a very, very strong military. we wanted all of the things we're going to get. people consider that controversial, but you did not consider it controversial. [applause] pres. trump: i

trump: absolutely.ncentive was taken out of the real estate industry. when the values went down -- and they plummeted, they absolutely plummeted -- billions of dollars worth halfate is now the billions of dollars. charlie: the crisis came about because a lot of savings and loan splendid money to developers that were bad loans that should have never been made. mr. trump: that's true, but a lot of that was exacerbated. a lot of loans that could have been good loans were made into bad loans because of the 1986 tax law change. what that dude is all of a sudden you have resolution trust, and you pay billions and billions. $5 billion inve taxes, we are now paying trillions of dollars. charlie: ron perlman the other day made a billion dollars or something. mr. trump: he is a good man. i hope you didn't make a lot of money -- hope he did make a lot of money. but the government passed a stupid law. charlie: here is the other side, people with great youepreneurial gifts like did there gets extended too far. when

and trump business. according to officials familiar with the matter. pamela brown, what more can you tell us about the breaking news? >> we're learning that high level advisers close to then nominee donald trump were in frequent communication during the campaign with russians known to u.s. intelligence, former and current officials, talking to myself and colleague jim sciutto. and the frequency of the communications and proximity to mr. trump during the campaign raised a red flag with u.s. intelligence and law enforcement according to individuals and communications intercepted in routine intelligence collection targeting russians known to u.s. intelligence. among them trump -- regularly communicating with russians. caught the attention. emphasized that the communications between the campaign staff and representatives of foreign governments are not unusual but these particular communications stood out to investigators due to the frequency, volume and level of the trump advisers involved. as we have been t

trump and the prime minister. on secretary of state rex tillerson's first day on the job. we have live coverage from europe to the middle east to asia. we start with ian lee in jerusalem with the surprising white house pivot on israeli settlements. good morning, ian. >> reporter: good morning, christine. for many of us who cover israel, this did come as a bit of a shock especially since it seemed like the trump administration was giving the israeli government the green light to expand settlements in the west bank and east jerusalem. they announced over 6,000 settlement units since trump came into office. then we get this statement from the white house. while we don't believe the existence of settlements are an impediment to pieeace, the expansion beyond the current borders may not be helping in achieving that goal. we are starting to hear from israeli officials. the deputy foreign minister came out shortly and said that the current israeli government was elected to act on the jewish people's right to build in all

trump and data have less of a relationship than trump and tiffany.ut trump's defensiveness is telling. it shows that even he realizes he needs to prove he's in control, and maybe someday he will be. but for now, let's congratulate steve bannon. as of this moment, you are the real president. the american people didn't elect you, but then again they kind of didn't elect trump either. now here it is, your moment of zen. - um, i think it's bull[bleep]. i mean, i'm not gonna get into it too deeply, but personally i think it's bull[bleep]. no. [cheers and applause] - [coughs]

trump, trump, trump. "trump"] chanting mr. priebus: tomorrow, tomorrow, ok? just be patient. knew, it was that than for my family and my sister, who is a doctor out of san diego, nothing was impenetrable, because it goes back to what i said before, which is that the country was hungry for something far more, one story oran one-off issue. it was something people wanted in this country that was real and going to change the direction we were heading and it was president trump that will is the answer. -- that was the answer. >> it is going to get worse every day in the media. here is why. the internal logic makes sense. they are corporatist, globalist media. they are adamantly opposed, adamantly opposed -- [applause] two and economic nationalist agenda like president trump has. he laid this out many years ago at cpac. it is cpac that originally gave him the springboard pure the first time at breitbart we started seeing him, saw how his speeches resonated with people, and then we would go out to these smaller town halls later and he really, he got traction with the same message he

in trump world, enemy of the american people is an enemy of trump lies. i have been on trump's enemies list since he told his first lie about president obama's birth. it was a pretty short list in those days, and trump's media enemies list remained a very short list after he began his presidential campaign, and the news media prized access to trump. there was nothing better for your ratings on tv than a donald trump interview. an interview that i never got because i was on that enemies list from day one. and donald trump knew. he knew very well how an interview with me would have gone. it wouldn't have been one of those interviews that i was conducting in the hope of getting him to agree to come back for another interview. he attacked me on twitter every chance he got. he threatened to sue me on twitter and i wore every one of those tweets like a badge of honor. a badge that said, enemy of trump lies. and tonight the good news for america is there are more and more of those enemies of trump lies in the american news media every day. and yes, better late t

during trump's upcoming state visit, sobbing trumps racism and sexism.p's racism and sexism. to talk more about trump's foreign policy, we are joined by ststephen walt, international relations professor at harvard university. his recent piece in foreign policy headlined "trump has already blowown it." how has he blown it? >> i think you could argue t tht trumump had a an oppoportunity e was elected d to move an americn foreign-policy in a somewhat different direction, and it would have been -- there would have been substantial public support away from military interventionism, trying to get a more even distribution of labor with some of our key allies, working for economic arrangements that benefited main street as muchch as theyey bened wall strtreet. so hee could have done that. of course, he has d done the opposite. he has been picking fifights wih some of f our traditioional alls anand doing t that to no good purpose, with no real end in mind. he is an explicit totally -- inextricably continue to defend the bad behavior of vladimir putin and has a co

president trump: i have a judge who is a hater of donald trump. he is a hater.e, who happens to mexican, which i think is fine, i think the mexicans are going to end up loving donald trump when i give all these jobs. amy: that was donald trump attacking another judge for his mexican heritage. he then tweeted up a furious storm on saturday talking about judge robart. how unusual is this?s? >> we certainly have not seen this in the past where you have a president or his administration individually attack judges and their decisions. yes, they may attack their notsions, right not -- but individually challenge the judg es. i think it shows the deliver it disregard -- deliberate disregard from the administration to the principles of our democracy. there are three equal branches that apply checks and balalances on one another. amy: that adams, they did for being with us. adams is also legal director for the northwest immigrant rights project, which filed the suit along with the american immigration council l and the nanational immigration project f the national lawyers

than trump himself. does that make it easier or yarder to work with others in this administration. >> democrats haven't been able to crack the code with this guy. there is a lot of energy in their base. he won the election. despite all these controversies he keeps plowing ahead. what we will see today is donald trump having fun. he likes going out on the stump, likes the adoring crowds. likes bragging about his victory attacking democrats and hist media. i think he krz himself the bess messenger of his administration and he is going to go out there and deliver it the way he wants to deliver night do you think he is making progress on his initiatives? >> that's the huge question. there is a lot of frustration i think on capitol hill that instead of talking about tax cuts, obamacare repeal we are talking about donald trump's tweets, about him calling the media the enemy of the american people. it is a hard for republicans to drive a coherent consistent message when he keeps come out and saying these outlan

and nbc news reports investigators have determined while some trump campaign aides and trump business associates were in contact with russians, there's no indication those russians were all intelligence officers. according to "the new york times," one person picked up on the calls was trump's former campaign chairman, paul manafort. manafort told nbc news he had, "no contact knowingly with russian intelligence officials." president trump responded to the story this morning on twitter, writing "the fake news media is going crazy with their conspiracy theories and blind hatred." and "this russian connection nonsense is merely an attempt to cover up the many mistakes made in hillary clinton's losing campaign." like precious bodily fluids from dr. strangelove. and another setback for the trump administration, late today, the president's pick to be labor secretary withdrew his nomination. andrew puzder pulled out after it became clear he didn't have the republican votes he needed to win confirmation. joining me right now, "washington post" white house correspondent jenna johnson.

it was vintage trump.tsider, thursday trump was dismantling the hostile media in the briefing room and shouting to his base, to the deplorables and they loved it. the media, not so much. they whined, they moaned and generally offended by the event so much so they failed to cover a far more important moment later in that day. after the epic press conference, president trump signed legislation that rolls back onerous regulations on the coal industry, therefore freeing an industry to hire more americans for jobs right here in america. west virginia, kentucky, pennsylvania, ohio among others. >> president trump we thank you very much for everything that you've done for us, everything you're doing for our industry is very much needed. i've been mining in this industry for 40 years and this is a very exciting time for our industry. eric: you see, that's where the trump rubber meets the road, jobs. so far tens of thousands of american jobs trump saved and created are what really matters, not some petulant group o

we know it's not trump.ou the current standings of what we have here, all right? ( laughter ) so, as you can see, for week three, we have a whole bunch of people, donald trump's still stuck in number five spot, but there is been a lot of movement in the top three and that's what we'll share with you today. at number three, we have jay jarvanka -- jared and ivanka trump. ( laughter ) in the number two spot, fox news, or as trump calls it his daily briefings. but the number one spot in this week's edition of who's the real president goes to -- ( drum roll ) ( cheering ) ( booing ) >> trevor: steve bannon! yea! steve! yea! yes. donald trump's chief strategist who is the rormer radical editor of breitbart and the author of the best selling biography if eczema were human, the steve bannon story. ( laughter ) we've heard so much about the power and influence steve bannon has in the white house. >> where did the term muslim ban come from? >> how did the president decide the seven countries. >> bannon played a key r

trump helped his case.he stuck it to the media. good for him. you have got the 30% to 40% of people who don't like donald trump, and that re-even forced their view of him. the question is, what about everyone else, the people who voted for obama and switched to trump. i don't think he's helping himself with those people. i don't think constantly obsessing over the minutia of media coverage is helping him in any way, shape or form. it's not going to help him get his policies passed, it won't reinforce a sense of stability. it won't help him with republican senators who are having questions. >> before it counters what he seize as a negative media negative. isn't the distaste much deeper than that. don't most of the journalists dislike this presi they think some of his policy positions like immigration are extreme. >> maybe. let's agree that the main supreme media tend to lean left. when george bush was elected and started in 2001, lost the popular vote and won the electoral vote. we didn't have anything like

-- trump: you havemr. trump: mr.rump: you have parents and people that adore you, all of a sudden, the world seems to be coming to an end. it was just sort of an incredible experience. charlie: did you have to go to your father and say, bell me out? -- bail me out? help me? mr. trump: my father would not have been in a position to bail me out. i have a sister who is a federal judge. she is very strong. she is a fantastic woman. i never knew as to loyalty whether or not she would be there. other people were there. the incredible thing is, you cannot really tell who is going to be there and who is not. i would have bet my life on certain people. i would have said, politically speaking, that andrew stein would have been there. charlie: there for what? first 15 years i supported andrew stein. i never asked him for a thing. when i needed a vote, and until the very end when everybody else was on board, andrew was not there. i was really surprised. ultimately, he was there. it should not have been so difficult. charlie: her

i'm quoting donald trump. the other article, the headline le pen woos putin." -- to recognize russia's annexation of crimea if she became president. she portrayed her center-right rival as too right-wing. such a move would signal a change in relations with russia and put paris on a collision course with london and berlin which both condemned the annexation. the national foreign leader, who hopes russian banks will fund of the election campaign went on to putin went on by expressing support for a president assad of syria. miss le pen set out on election strategy based on leftist economics and an anti-economic stance, euro skepticism, and a shift on foreign policy in moscow. well. evidently, it can happen here. since november 8, various reporters, colleagues, students, friends, and family members have asked me to tell them how and why it happened and whether there is any precedent in the history of american presidential politics. allpect many of you, if not of you, have had people ask you the same question. my a

trump. anybody who doesn't understand that and writes against that fact is just reporting inaccurate information. howie: you told sean hannity on the radio that the media are inciting mob mentality. that's a very strong charge. you think negative media coverage could lead to mob violence. >> did you see the martyrs at the airport, the conscientious civic participants. protests are part of our first amendment. howie: we have seen this in some of the urban riots. >> why don't they go and talk to -- they are the media. they already missed america. they don't understand america and thup their nose at most of america and you know that. america didn't go to the ivy league schools like the media did. there are some people in the media whose dry cleaning bill for the year is basically what some people earn in the cities and counties where donald trump won. fast forward, why don't they go and see who is going to benefit and talk to the people who are tactically going to benefit from keeping the facto

proof that trump camp talking to russia all along, russia celebrates when trump wins.incidences. >> and add the fact that the trump camp tried to change the republican position on ukraine for some reason, and putin responds to u.s. sanctions by doing nothing. despite russian tradition of throwing american diplomats out when we throw theirs out. >> what is logical explanation? again it could be nothing. we don't know right? >> here is the reason why this all smells badly. it's that people who understand the challenges for a president knew that the worst thing that donald trump could do in the election was to put himself in a box and to close off his options. and time and again he was given an opportunity of opening his ongss by saying that maybe putin was doing something wrong in crimea. saying perhaps it's right, perhaps it's true, u.s. intelligence community is right about the role of the russians in hacking. but each time he said no. said he didn't believe u.s. intelligence, said the rest was fake news. time and again when he should have opened possibilities he did.

trump 45%. does trump know pence better surrogate for him than he is himself?re starting a poll, in this poll, trump most popular person. bernie sanders is most of the country -- >> pence is most popular in the administration. you look at bannon, he is down 20%. the people negative 2 or 3. >> those people are having trouble going to speak to people now. >> michelle, this is true. he is like dart va dar. >> right. >> he is sort of the tough guy in the white house. kellyanne has had her problems. but pence says yes, i believe in nato. so we get more gas, these are the -- why isn't the president says the smart stuff? >> because the base doesn't want to hear from him. that's not what he got elected for. he is calm, he is stable. when everybody else in the administration is operating up here, hearing his even his tone of voice, can be very calming which is surprising. because prior to the election one would have thought, given pence's idea, people would not find calm in pence. but that's what he has given them. >> that's what's bizarre, i think cheney was -- pence c

are strongly with trump. but what seems to be the connective tissue, this is not a time to run the government, it time to stay with those people. do they actually care whether the national security adviser position is filled? >> apparently not. donald trump is communicating effectively to his supporters. it's something we've seen before. even in the debates, there were three debates that hillary clinton i think won by all sort of traditional metrics and at the same time donald trump was very effectively communicating to his supporters during those debates. i think he's able to do that well. i think if somebody is able to build a following and keep it going. but there are external factors that will eventually erode that if he can't manage the white house. his aides are at each other's throats. he's unable to fill this important national security position and even more important today, james comey, the fbi director, met with senators of the senate intelligence committee for two hours. they all walk out of the r

trump and data have less of a relationship than trump and tiffany.defensiveness is telling. it shows that even he realizes he needs to prove he's in control, and maybe someday he will be. but for now, let's congratulate steve bannon. as of this moment, you are the real president. the american people didn't elect you, but then again they kind of didn't elect trump either. now here it is, your moment of zen. - um, i think it's bull[bleep]. i mean, i'm not gonna get into it too deeply, but personally i think it's bull[bleep]. no.

trump is a small part of this. larger than perhaps we wish he were, but the modern presidency has become swollen beyond all the founders recognitions. but that being so, mr. mcconnell and mr. ryan have their own duties and imperatives and people to lead i sam a free agent. i do not have to do that. i've spent 40 years at the project of that bill buckley began in the mid1950s, of making american conservatism intellectually coherent and politically palettable. that is incompatible with the trump presidency. >> and as you look back on the history of the republican party and the conservative movement, do you see now any signs of the seeds being planted here or there for what eventually gave us donald trump as a republican nominee and now a republican president? >> i don't. i think he's called factor. something that swooped in from god knows where. take for example mr. bannon. he is a recognizable phenomenon. he's a continental european right winger. blood, soil, throne, alter, all the rest. there really is no american

[applause] "usa"] ng so, sit t trump: [applause] down. donald trump did not get a ovation.hey leave out the part, they never sat down, they leave that out. so i just want to thank you. at avorite major speech was pac and probably five or six years ago, first major political speech. you were there. it was, i loved it, i loved the loved the commotion and they did polls where i went through the roof and i wasn't running, right? it gave me an idea. a little bit concerned when i saw what was happening in said, let's god i to it. so it was very exciting. stage on cpac, i'll never forget it really. little notes and even less preparation. practically no notes and no preparation and then you leave and everybody was said, i think i like this business. year, i ave come last was worried that i would be at controversial, we wanted border security, we wanted very, very strong we wanted all of the things we're going to get and people consider that but you didn't consider it controversial. [applause] president trump: so i've been with cpac for a long time, all years we've been together and

or any former staffer for the trump -- with trump? >> so i agree with your previous guest in saying, you know, the senate intel committee, they've said they're going to take this up. that is where you do investigations like this. i think to call for a 9/11-type commission is overkill on this. i think we need to get to the bottom of this. these are answers we deserve. ultimately specifically on the flynn thing, i think the cover-up in this case is far worse than the crime depending on what was discussed and in fact, later, you know, find out he talked to the fbi, we want to know if he told the truth to the fbi or not. if he lied, in fact, that's what can lead to a lot of trouble. so i think the senate intel committee is perfectly capable of getting to the bottom of this, answers that we need and i think we'll get them. >> i've been pointing out every night that jeremy bash who worked for cia director panetta, secretary of defense panetta, i sort of look to for guidance on this, he said that he had no -- he would expect or have no probl

this is candidate trump. and when it looked like it was most chaotic during his campaign, it was actually fine. his poll numbers may have been tanking, but his enthusiasm remained. and ultimately his poll numbers didn't tank that far. especially when it came to the republican party despite some pretty high unfavorable numbers. so what you are seeing is him trying to get back to his roots. you can tell that he was itching in that white house to do what he liked to do during the campaign, which was talk, get in front of the cameras, talk to the press, go and have rallies. he was on television, national television getting cheers, or at least being combative every single day for the past -- for the entire 17 months of the campaign. and he's been pretty withheld now in that white house. almost kept in a version of solitary confinement for him. that's part of the reason why you see the cameras follow him to those roundtable meetings. it's a chance for him to maintain a presence. so he's going to go to this -- someb

trump, well news flash, donald j.rump is president. >> kind of like he did on the campaign trail, right? when things would get rocky he would go back to the people. he would turn back to the base. he would have his giant rallies and his speeches where he would kind of go off on tangents on poll numbers go off on tang engts making fun of hillary clinton and whatnot. and it energized him. and kind of energized his base. he's had a rocky start here inside of official washington. it's a return home for him. there are those thinking this will energize his supporters and maybe help him get back on track a little bit. >> eric, now do you, the president in south carolina, north charleston at boeing was praised for his delivery. for being relaxed. staying on message there. do we have an idea of what we're going to hear today? are we going to hear what tom just suggested quite possibly may be more tax on the media? >> yeah, absolutely. this is going to be sort of vintage trump. he's going to be talking about jobs, complaining a

what has he learned from trump.me now. >> you are big billionaires, you guys understand leverage very effectively. how do do you believe president trump is using leverage in negotiating so far his first 30 days as commander-in-chief? >> the first thing trump recognized in the campaign, and i think it's not just unique to the united states, it happened in britain and canada, in france and switzerland, in columbia, the body politic people who vote are sick and tired of politicians. they've had enough bs. they want people who are operators to run government, that make promises they keep and that was the groundswell that elected donald trump and he is doing exactly what he said. not everybody is comfortable about it. it's the first time in a long time a politician actually kept their promises. that's that's what such a shock to everybody. jesse: people are very uncomfortable with politicians keeping promises because it never happens. one of your colleagues in shark tank, mark cuban, very vocal critic of trump before and

donald trump treated this.ur first guest tonight is here to talk about the iranian provocations and the trump administration focus on radical islamist terror. joining us ambassador john bolton. do you think there is any way the irans will pay attention? >> when you name specific individual and companies, simply new come any, new false fronts appear. freezing asset in the united states, if the iranians learned anything once obama unfroze all their assets, they are not going to leave anything here to freeze. what's most significant are the statements made by president trump, national security advisor principle saying this puts iran on notice. i think what it put them on in the about is the obama nuclear deal is a heartbeat away from being ended. and the president himself saying i's not taking any options off the table. for the first time in 8 years there is a credible threat of military force. if donald trump has shown anything in the past two week it's his credibility. if there is the slightest chance iran will

during the campaign, donald trump talked about a case involving trump university. and he called the judge a mexican using basically an ethnic slur because the judge is actually from indiana and said he was not qualified. this could be the start of a big challenge, not just to the judiciary but to the whole idea of checks and balances. >> that's what i wanted to talk to you about. in many ways some observers have been saying that the courts it seems are taking up, taking up the challenge essentially of this presidency that a lot of the pushback is going to come from the courts rather than say for example, congress. >> i think that was going to happen initially because this executive order in particular was so sweeping in what it is trying to do that it raised constitutional questions. congressmen right now who may question trump will tend to hang back. they're hoping he can be contained. in that sense, the court fight is sort of the first round of that attempt. >> when we look at all these protests that have been happening outside mar-a-lago, we're reporting a thous

amy: trump's comments came just a day after white house press secretary sean spicer said trump had lost faith in flynn. >> this was an act of trust. whether or not he actually misled the vice president was the issue. that was ultimately what led to the president asking for and accepting the resignation of general flynn. that is it. it was a matter of trust. nermeen: while congressional democrats and some republicans are pushing for probes into trump's ties to russia, trump has focused largely on going after those who have leaked information to the press. in a tweet this morning trump , wrote -- "the spotlight has finally been put on the low-life leakers! they will be caught!" on wednesday, trump indirectly accused the nsa and fbi of being behind the leaks. he wrote -- "information is being illegally given to the failing @nytimes & @washingtonpost by the intelligence community. nsa and fbi? just like russia." amy: some supporters of trump, including breitbart news, have accused the intelligence agencies of waging a deep state coup against the president. meanwhile some critics of trump ar

so, trump is not doing bannon's will. banon is doing trump's well. the president's will. they haven't done anything that the president didn't talk about in the campaign. reince priebus represents establishment republicans. i am disgusted by the leaks coming out of the who is. mean, i understand leaking. i've done a fair amount of it in my dame. strategic leaking for a purpose bet when you are leaking to the detriment of your boss, when you're leaking -- the "washington post" had a leak in which a white house staffer says the president is like a clueless child and "the new york times" had a leak that talked about the president wearing a bathrobe in the family quarters after hours which i would hope so because it's pretty drafty. that is not helping the boss. that is trying to aggrandize yourself by leaking with -- and suck up to reporter -- >> host: who due clinton leaking. >> guest: out hover those who are not trump loyalists. they're not coming from steve bannon kellyanne canway because their trump loyalist. if fear they come from the establishment republicans who seem t

this is mr trump's gripe. that the us picks up. despite the fact it picks up more than any other country, some nato members are not meeting their agreed commitments to the budget. the new us defence secretary james mattis has had to the budget. the new us defence secretaryjames mattis has had his first meeting with nato defence ministers in brussels. he picked up onjust the ministers in brussels. he picked up on just the issues the president has been mentioning. it's absolutely appropriate as a european minister of defence said last week, it's a fair demand that all who benefit from the best defence in the world carry their proportionate share of the necessary cost to defend freedom and we should never forget that ultimately it is freedom that we defend here at nato. we understand a behind closed doors meeting secretary matias said... i.e., show us the money. the bbc‘s jonathan marcus is at nato in brussels. i asked for his assessment of how it has gone. a very interesting day here at nato. general matters is

becoming trump, rocking out in trump masks.rk magazine notes, rap videos embrace trump because with his blunt persona and unsavory associations, trump was short-hand not just for money, but for money godly displayed, money irrespective of taste or social convention. and donald trump's election may change some of that. kanye west could be the most prominent rapper to continue a flirtation with trump but did walk back that outreach, west facing criticism for meeting with president-elect trump from other rappers. even though west was really only doing what so many rappers had done before the trump brand was political. uncle murdo calling that out and citing the past criticism rapping, the people don't trust you, bush don't like black people, you think donald trump do, don't meet with donald trump and talk about us, ye. you ain't got the answers, just like you told sway, a reference to west's interview with sway. >> you ain't got the actions, man. you ain't got the answers. you ain't got the answers. you ain't got the answers, sway

having said that, trump, i believe that trump believes he needs someone, a straw man. someone to blame because there's not a hillary clinton out there. >> an opponent. >> we make the most easiest foil for that. our problem tends to be is people believe we spend too much time focusing on what he says about us. they would like to see us spend more time on what he's doing. does that make sense? >> it does. i would argue some of his actions, what he is doing is attacking the media. >> that's true. >> it's more -- go ahead and i'll make my point. >> we're caught in a really bad position in the way that i see it. we're not the enemies. we work very hard to bring the truth to the people. the people need a free press. it's a vibrant part of a democracy. >> carl. >> look, trump is an enemy of the truth. that is what we know from his presidency thus far. he's not interested in the truth. he's not interested in the best attainable version of the truth, which is what real journalism and reporting is. he's not interested in fact based debate. what we are seeing already are actions

trump. it's unclear whether they were exsag rating that claim or not. it was growing in confidence that russia was trying to tilt the election in trump favor. pamela brown, cnn washington. >>> the new revelation comes as white house tries to distance itself from russia. listen to what sean spicer had to say during briefing on tuesday. >> back in january the president said nobody in campaign had been in touch with the russian, today can you still say nobody on the trump campaign not even general flynn had contact with the russian? >> now understanding -- we were clear during the transition period he did speak with the ambassador -- >> i'm talking about during the campaign. >> there's nothing to conclude anything different has changed with respect to that time respect. >> i do want to bring you up-to-date, we getting information rex tillerson will meet on the 16th of february during the summit meeting. let's bring in claire sebastian. what has been the reaction from moscow and how much concern

he would warm up for trump, he would get the crowds going. trump saw him do that.rump -- it seemed to energize him. it seemed to be what he wanted his crowds to hear about him and what he wanted to hear about himself. i think that we are not going to -- we certainly have not heard the last of the voter fraud, the implications that our system is corrupt, that it's undermined, that it's -- there is something fishy about it, if it arrives at any -- any result other than a trump victory. >> that's the thing. he never -- it's not that he ever fails. it's that someone steals something from him. here you have -- he is angering republicans in new hampshire. >> look, when this started -- i think when this started it originally seemed to be talking about the allegations of voter fraud, about peak and pride. i couldn't have lost the popular vote in a fair vote. it had to have been stolen from me. the fact that they keep returning to these arguments suggest that they're trying to pave the way for further restrictions on voting. you saw the obama administration going to court r
