unquote. it is impossibly -- i am -- it is impossible to conclude that president trump will appoint a justice whom we can have faith will leave roe v. wade unsettled law. president trump said in his own words that he wants to give them a justice to give the court a majority to overturn roe v. wade. so count on it. president trump will in all likelihood nominate a justice willing to send roe, quote, back to the states. again, those are president trump's own words, where several are preparing, if not already prepared, to roll back a woman's right to choose. in fact, according -- there ares where abortions would be wholly or partially illegal almost immediately. that is against what america wants. it is because the president and his hard-right ideological judicial acolytes are way far away from where the american people are that are trying to create a court that will turn the clock backward in so many ways, roe at the top of the list. we also know that president trump will likely nominate a justi

the reason for using wikileaks was plausible deniability, quote-unquote. and the operation had been conducted with full knowledge and support of president trump and senior members of his campaign team. in return, the trump team had agreed to sideline russian intervention in ukraine as a campaign issue to and raise u.s.-nato defense commitment in the baltics and eastern europe to deflect attention away from ukraine a priority for mr. putin who needed to characterize and cauterize the subject. this is what he wreet. that's on page 7 and 8. the dossier claims. now here's the truth. in july, 2016 republican national convention made changes to the republican party's platform on ukraine. initially, g.o.p. platform proposed providing lethal weapons to the ukraine, quote-unquote. that's what originally stated, their platform. but the line was watered down to promise appropriate assistance, quote-unquote. npr reported that diana denman a republican delegate who supported arming u.s. allies in ukraine, has told people that trump aide j.p. gordon said at the republic

but he emphasizes, and this is quite important, that it is economic and financial aid that is quote-unquote essential to economic stabilization and orderly political processes. so now he's beginning to foreshadow what would become the marshall plan, and this new emphasis on economic and financial assistance. the idea behind this was that we needed some way to counter the soviet conventional military force dominance in europe. at the end of world war ii there were over 3 million american troops in europe, and president truman was determined to carry out fdr's pledge to withdraw these troops within two years. so the question that the military was wrestling with is, how do we do this? how can we provide security, make sure that our vital interest in protecting western europe are met without having to rely on the military? so the idea was we would leverage our economic dominance to counter the soviet conventional force dominance. interestingly enough the ideas, initial ideas get the marshall plan did that come from economists but, in fact, from military. people like sector board henry stimson,

quote, unquote, i agree with the intel community's assessment full stop. i assume the dhs stands with secretary nielsen's statement, correct? >> yes, we do. >> and you stand by secretary nielsen's statement, right? >> yes, i do. >> 25 minutes ago, president trump just made the following tweet hot off the tweeter presses. quote, unquote, i'm very concerned that russia will be fighting very hard to have an impact on the upcoming election. based on the fact that no president has been tougher on russia than me, they will be pushing very hard for the democrats. they definitely don't want trump, exclamation point. obviously, as you saw from the dni's report from january 26, 2017, the entire intelligence community concluded that russia was trying to harm hillary clinton's campaign and help donald trump's campaign. the question is this. according to the president, the russians definitely don't want trump. do you agree with this tweet? >> sir, i make it a habit to focus on my job and work with state and local governments like this and not interpret headlines or twi

[applause] he said that positive change is a gathering force, unquote. that is also true. i'd like to describe some of those positive changes and why they're happening. plain and simple, change comes with leadership and clarity from the united states. that leadership and clarity was on full display when president trump made the bold and right decision to move the united states embassy to jerusalem. [cheers and applause] >> jerusalem has historically been, is now and will always be the capital of israel. [applause] >> that is not something that was created by the location of an embassy. that is not something that was created by an american decision. america did not make jerusalem israel's capital. what president trump did to his great credit was recognize a reality that american presidents had denied for too long. jerusalem is the capital of israel, that's a fact. [applaus [applause] >> and president trump had the current to recognize that fact when others would not. now, i have to say our embassy decision caused a bit of a stir at the united nations. in the united nations

unquote. and he talked to the president of the united states about how he should pick someone for the supreme court. in fact, judge kavanaugh said his time as staff secretary made him, quote, a better interpreter of statutes. so over and over again, judge kavanaugh has said this is an important position. and it critically informed who he is as a judge and who he will be, should he be confirmed -- i hope he isn't -- to the supreme court. so the argument the republicans have that staff secretary isn't an important job is virtually laughable and a cover-up for their fear of letting all the records out. the second argument we are hearing is that it's gratuitous and unreasonable to ask for documents from brett kavanaugh's career before he became a judge. well, we got amnesia on the other side. nine years ago when this body was considering the nomination of sonia sotomayor to the supreme court, senate republicans on the judiciary committee requested all the paperwork from her tenure at the puerto ri

a deep and visceral hatred of secretary clinton and he said it is, quote unquote, deep. are you aware of this concern? >> i was aware of some of the press reporting and some people expressing that concern, yes. >> was one of those people director comey? >> a person having that concern? >> yes. >> yes. >> could you explain to me a little bit about that and how that in your view affected the revelation of the warrant for weiner's laptop? >> you'd have to ask director comey that. there was discussion and i remember some of it was in the context of reporting from mr. giuliani and others talking about connections to new york. but again, i don't want to scapegoat new york because a lot of people were aware of it and there were concerns just about the number of folks. but with regard to mr. comey, my recollection is that he was aware of those concerns but i was not privy to discussions he had with the attorney general or other concerns he might have had outside of my presence or conversation. >> now, with regard to mr. giuliani, on october 25th, then trump campaign advisor rudy

appointments will, quote, do the right thing, unlike bush's appointee john roberts on obama care, unquote. it is near impossible to imagine that president trump would select a nominee who isn't hostile to our healthcare law and healthcare for millions and millions and millions of americans, who isn't hostile to a woman's freedom to make her own healthcare decisions. :: that would reverse trophy way. he, himself, bent his career in pursuit of it and that is not just my view. according to edward weiland, one of the most prominent legal conservative activists and scholars and bloggers said quote, no one has been more dedicated to the enterprise of building a supreme court that will overturn roe v wade than the federalist society asked leonard leo. no one has been more dedicated to overturning roe persuade than the very man who chose the list of 25 and that is what we're up against here. that is why america is on tenterhooks so worried about any choice from this list. let me repeat again. mr. leonard leo is the man who assembled trumps list of supreme court nominees and no one, no one, has be

unquote. democrats soon piled on, but nowhere in the law review article that spurred -- spurned this hysteria did judge kavanaugh suggest that a president would be immune from civil or criminal liability. rather, he suggested that as a policy matter it might be wise for congress to enact a law that would defer such legislation until the president leaves office. and, of course, congress could accelerate that timeline through impeachment. judge kavanaugh's law review article presents an interesting policy proposal and one that's worth noting that he offered while a democrat was this the white house. the critics' attempts to equate his policy recommendations with prosecutions of sitting presidents are simply wrong. if anything, judge kavanaugh's recommendation that congress enact a law suggest that in the absence of any such legislation a sitting president can be investigated, and perhaps even prosecuted. then there was the hoopla over judge kavanaugh's statement that he would, quote, put the fin

costly act which is designed to determine the election results in favor of one of the two sides, unquote. he said these acts were carried out in secret 2/3 of the time and included, quote, funding the election campaign of specific parties, disseminating misinformation or propaganda, training locals of one side in various campaigning or public announcements of threats -- or threats in favor of or against a candidate and providing or withdrawing foreign aid, unquote. he reported that in 59% of these cases the side that received assistance came to power. in a december 21, 2016, article, "the los angeles times" said, quote, the u.s. has a long history of attempting to influence presidential elections in other countries, end quote. the newspaper reported, quote, the c.i.a. has accused russia of interfering in the 2016 presidential election by hacking into democratic and republican computer networks and selectively releasing emails, unquote, but "the times" added, quote, but critics might point out the u.s. has done similar things. i am not criticizing our government's activities in this regar

giuliani, on october 25 then trump campaign adviser promised a quote/unquote pretty big surprise coming up in the campaign. on october 28 giuliani claimed to be in contact with former agents and a quote/unquote few active agents who obviously don't want to identify themselves. there was a concern that there is a deep and visceral hatred towards secretary clinton in the new york field office at the same time mr. giuliani says he is having contactwis with activ agents. can you give us your take? >> i recall the comment and recall it caused me a lot of concern. >> and why? >> because while it is possible that he is engaging in some sort of bu puffe puffery, the reality is giving the timing that the laptop was there and talking about it in the context of a big surprise it caused me great concern that he had information about that. >> in other words, that he should not have had. through a leak? >> through unauthorized disclosure, yes. >> thank you, sir. >> members are advised that there are votes on the floor of the house. >> mr. strozk, you probably have a good 45 minutes. members are advis

they don't want trump, unquote. week ago the commander in chief seemed to side with putin over the intelligence community but he said he had misspoken. joining me now is stephen hall, retired cia chief of russia operations. thank you for joining us. do you buy president trump saying that he's so tough on the russians they're going to try to meddle in the elections to help the democrats? >> jake, as i think just like everything you see from this president, there's a weird mixture of, you know, bizarre claims, some of them with a cornell of truth, some not. i think it's likely that the dni told us this the other day, right? blinking red lights ahead of our midterm elections and no doubt that the russians try to mess with it. it wouldn't surprise me if they mess with both sides. vladimir putin is not a republican or democrat. he hates america and wants to disrupt that. so no. the president hasn't figured that part out yet but i expect meddling in the midterms, absolutely. >> there's been an odd disconnect between presi

the president's quote, unquote, walk back, the last 48 hours broadly. former c irkia director john brn called the president ee's performance in helsinki treasoniotreaso treasono treasonous. what do you think? >> that's going too far. it was by no means a positive event in terms of the image of the united states. you don't want to have any kind of equivalence between what the russians do and what the united states does. at this point, i think we have to move beyond the rhetoric and into the question of, what are we doing to protect our core values and to advance them? >> some of your colleagues in the bush era have talked about this. some of the aides mentioned their comments. michael hayden, sarah fagen, andy card, not happy. there are calls from democrats for some administration officials to resign. if president bush said something like this while you were working with him, would you have resigned? >> it is very hard for me to imagine that happening, so it kind of goes beyond my ability to speculate. i don't think people ought to resign, as long as the

and why not why is the goal not for quote unquote world peace we're not going to ever have complete peace but really we're better to work with russia as an ally than as an enemy that we constantly have to look over our shoulder at you know what the united states does have a big military budget the biggest military budget in the world want a peace dividend threaten the u.s. military industrial complex to speak of eyes now i read that the e.u. is trying to put their own force together separate from nato good let them do it and then they'll realize how much help we gave how they were able to use their money for great social programs and to take care of their people while we were busy paying for their defense all these years we give an enormous amount of money around the world instead we've got fifty thousand homeless veterans we've got cities that have been in absolute turmoil the money hasn't been going to our education department. there is so much that we need to do at home there are so many things wrong in america that we haven't paid attention to because the globalists that were running

, and, quote, was nothing short of treasonous, unquote. do you agree with brennan that's trump's actions were treasonous? >> i do not. >> john brennan's tweet is no small thing. here to discuss this is max boot and ian bremmer. max, you wrote if anyone is the enemy of the president which is the line the president uses against the free press, it's trump himself. what about that word treason? is it -- is that a word that should be being used? >> well, it's fascinating to me, anderson, that it is in the conversation and in a very serious way being used by very serious people like john brennan, a career cia professional, who by the way was cia director during the 2016 campaign. so he probably knows things about donald trump that we don't know. and to me, this is just unbelievable that we're having this conversation about an american president and you can have a press conference between the american president and another head of state in which they're asked whether the other head of state has compromising material on the u.s. president. and tha

[laughter] greg: i will play that forever. if you go online now there are two sides clashing over nothing. it's vicious into nikki haley's point, no one is persuading anyone. government you try to cross the aisle with an olive branch. you get shunned by your own like actor mark who faced the wrath of the online mob on his side as he had the nerve to complement ben shapiro on twitter. then he had to apologize for being nice. what he was. neither side will win the great twitter war. it's been mutually assured destruction. is that good or bad or both? i don't know what went i do know is i prefer to dance in front of gus the dog.

now can feel safer than the day i took office there is no longer a nuclear threat from north korea unquote that was on the trumpet only a few weeks ago he also said great progress was being made that was obviously a slight overstatement his critics probably this evening feel vindicated you know they've said that he's being taken for a ride i mean has the ministration has it just completely misread the intentions of the north korean leader. at least it seems to reaffirm all confirm what the critics have sat at the summit in singapore was not very wild prepared that it didn't yield any concrete results to show for of course it came and trump in a joint statement said they would work towards denuclearization of the korean peninsula but it wasn't even quite clear if both sides understood the same. when they said these things and also there were no concrete steps that had to be taken from that point there was no concrete timetable and that is the problem with donald trump's approach towards diplomacy you think it's enough when the big guys sit together the relationship and then everything will

unquote. the president's spokeswoman was asked about it yesterday. she confirmed the president and his team would discuss it. that president trump would even consider handing over a former u.s. ambassador to putin and his cronies for interrogation is bewildering. no president, no president should have the power to gift wrap american citizens, let alone former ambassadors to our known adversaries. how can president trump and his team spend even a moment considering putin's request? how can they equate the democracy and rule of law and system of open and fair prosecution we have in this country with what putin does? just amazing. this president every day demeans the united states. so many americans are saying they're ashamed to have him as their leader when he behaves like this. certainly if the president agreed to such a request, congress must do everything in its power to block it. there can be no room for debate, no room for discussion. we must be clear and clear quickly. so this morning, sen

. >> he was going to quote-unquote drain the swamp. make washington run more efficiently. and yet you have an alligator in your own administration that thrives in this quote-unquote swamp. other conservatives have publicly called for the president to remove scott pruitt. you cannot articulate this message and say the left has done xy and z wrong. and stood for law and stood for order and yet you have a president who has disregarded all of those foundational privileges of what it once meant to be a conservative in this country, saying it don't matter. folks have said we have had enough. >> what does that look like on the republican side, joanie ernst in iowa. i am seeing conservatives right now getting immediate reaction, saying he got a raw deal. what is the divide on the republican side? how many thought he should go and how many shouldn't? >> many are wondering is this a temporary moment or a permanent moment. you do have so many leaders who are now going to the activist realm of the party. nobody wants to get out there too soon and anger that base if you will who we kno

it deserve ises our respect, unquote. last week, just last week now justice gorsuch voted to overturn 41 years of precedent in the decision relying on flimsy and fabricated legal theory. it was so flimsy, in fact, that judge kagan wrote that the maujty overruled precedent for not exceptional or special reason but because it never liked the decision subverting all known principles of desigh sis. justice roberts said he called balls and strikes as he saw them rather than interpret law. sorry. justice roberts said he would call balls and strikes as he saw them, that he would interpret law rather than make it. of course, it was justice roberts who was then responsible for overturning 40 years of precedent in the citizens united decision that so set back our politics. that so deepened the swamp that so many americans despise by allowing huge amounts of dark money, unreported to cascade into our political system. on two of the most important rulings, 81 years of precedent were thrown out the window despite the earnest promises

people would not have expected a few years ago that somebody from, quote/unquote, the left would win. despite of the many challenges we still face as a nation, i think the lasting result in that regard is extremely positive. it has caught the attention of people ablood and mexicans. very briefly, there's national -- it's true that campaigns usually take place largely center on domestic issues. i think that was the case in mexico's past election. but nevertheless you cannot underestimate the importance of the relationship for mexico with the united states. i think by and large the candidates, including mr. lopez obrador, you know, were more or less in the same place with respect to the united states during the campaign. i think that all of them were rather careful. i think they recognize the importa importance of the relationship. i did not see in any way an anti-american sentiment within the campaign. and i think that's also positive. i think -- i'm permanently very pleased about the fact that we have -- if i may use this expression that either gringo-bashing was used to gain some pol

he dislikes being fed lines that make him look, quote unquote, presidential in his mind, the things that he's supposed to say. he wants to say the things that he truly believes. in his gut, this is what he believes he was elected on. he believes he had a very special, direct relationship with the deeply conservative republican base and that he was able to connect with them by saying these things -- >> he was elected on lies? >> look, he was elected on how he sees the world. the fact is today he was reading from a script, not a very good performance, and what he really believes is hillary clinton, the dnc server, he's going to be talking about hillary clinton and the dnc server as long as win listen to him. it could be years and years and years. those are the things he believes. what you didn't hear today was any reckoning that he understands that there was something really problematic, and that's being nice, about an american president standing next to the president of russia basically taking his side over the intelligence agencies. he didn't reckon with that. >> michael, he was a candid

it's claiming that these posts have claimed that the holocaust is a lie and that jews are, quote, unquoteary. these comments have named on facebook, despite being flagged to the social media company, and this is thanks to a times investigation, so there are these foul cartoons depicting jewish people, describing them as cockroaches and different things. all of us are aware of the stories when people post on facebook after suffering breast cancer or breast—feeding and they've had pictures taken down. and yet these vile comments and images still remain for the facebook is on a pr offensive at the moment, saying they are recruiting more people to moderate the content, but they are clearly not recruiting and all the people doing it on doing a good enoughjob, but people doing it on doing a good enough job, but they need to do something about it but they haven't woken up to that. are the biggest publisher in the world. they are the main source of news for a lot of people. most people under 30 get their news from facebook before a print publication. i hate to say that. and yet they've refused to
