and if he l does return to the white house, what does return to the white house, what do you say that would mean for american democracy? if he do you say that would mean for american democracy? if he returns to the white house, _ american democracy? if he returns to the white house, i _ american democracy? if he returns to the white house, i am _ american democracy? if he returns to the white house, i am going - american democracy? if he returns to the white house, i am going to - american democracy? if he returns to the white house, i am going to ask. the white house, i am going to ask for a job at the bbc, i am going to have to move to the uk and hang out with you guys. if he gets back in the white house, it is very dangerous for all of us. you just have to read his 2025 plan or his schedule declaration where he wants to dismantle large parts of the american government. remember he is calling for a 15 million person deportation. and so i guess that means we will have armoured cars in like a handmaid's tale episode driving around the country pulling people out of their houses and tak

for example, can you imagine a white house chief of staff changing a diaper in the white house?n a baby that is not his baby? let's start there, okay? >> wow. that took a twist at the end. i thought i knew where you were going but then it was like someone else's baby. >> okay and guess whose baby it was okay and jen psaki has worked for the last three democratic nominees for president. do you want to guess which one she was terrified of? john kerry, barack obama, joe biden, the answer will be coming later when jen psaki joins us. which one gave her a bear hug after the job interview ? which one actually did not hire her for the job she interviewed for. it is every one of these things. there are so many things in here that could have been great fictional scenes, the job i miss the most in the world is being in the writer's room at the west wing nbc's series about a fictional white house, and there are so many things in here that would just go straight into the show if we knew that stuff then. it is just gems. >> lawrence, if you are implicitly offering that you and i should write

how they ended up at the white house, and now we're hearing the other transaction, how madeline wester house takes the checks in, gets them signed, and i expect her testimony is going to be good for the prosecution. otherwise why else would they have called her. we're going to hear that donald trump, when he signed the checks, that he did it personally. that he's involved. maybe if he had questions, he would raise the questions. maybe we'll hear that kind of testimony. this is just locking in how the transactions worked, to make it increasingly and increasingly less likely, this is something that flew totally under trump's radar. >> rebecca, micro manager is the word that comes to mind, when one sees donald trump's focus on things. here's the line of questioning going on right now about his process of tweeting from the @real donald trump account. if dan scavino wasn't available, the president would call me in and dictate a tweet to me. i would go back to the computer and type it up and print it out, and give it back to him so he could go over it. he would dictate, type it up, print a h

what do you get from the white house? >> nothing. we have been trying for over an hour now to get something on the record. broadly, i have spoken with several officials and they are hesitant to say anything on the record because right now they are really working with israel to figure out what hamas is agreeing to, if it is aligned with the kinds of parameters that the u.s. has put out there for a cease-fire proposal which has to include release of hostages and more aid. it sounds like from the state department briefing one of the sticking points could potentially be hamas' desire to have israel not have a presence at all in gaza and from the statements they have been putting out, it sounds like hamas has said we will agree if you continue to let us live on and let hamas continue to survive and exist and the u.s. has put forward, even though we have opposed publicly israel's plans for a full scale operation in rafah without mass evacuation and things that we've heard before, you heard matthew miller interestingly enough say that the u

come to work in the white house? >> never worked in the white house. >> as the point is it? works no syrup or yes wanted to work in the white house. it brought to the dance brickwork to go to the white house. i was offered jobs mr. trump a job when mr. trump wanted me too which is working with don at the white house general counsel. >> you work once i'm i brought a lawyer in sui should not go in because there would be no attorney-client privilege and in order to handle some of the matters i talked about it best suited for me not to go in and every president. >> here is what i think. i work for 10 years your trash and value work did not get a job in the white house and now you haven just like everyone else who got fired and did not get the job they want like james had a selfish motivation after you dip that is what i see here today that is what i got personal attorney year of my son in high school waiting for my daughter who is going back to new york. >> exactly what you want? >> a receive exactly what i want. >> a gentleman's time has expired. >> "new york times" reporting j

signal switchboard in the basement of the white house or the white house admin board, which was next door and the eob building. so that just amazed me that that kind of technology which now i call prehistoric but i would argue that we were the united states was among the worldwide leaders as far as provide in presidential support so it's fascinating me that at the same time i was in the white house that this brain power was going on right with the tom white heads and all of this was evolving. so i just that as an observation and and i agree with jeff an enlightening viewpoint this was to learn about all of this that had taken place while i was actually also working in the white house. wonderful wonderful. thank you very much. if i could. there was something the london switch, which i think was a dedicated cable under the and and you remember you used to to make an appointment to make a long distance call. and, you know, your your slot 4 minutes at 2 a.m. and you could hardly hear on the other end of the line. but man, if you could connect through that switch it was like the pers

what did the white house press corps think of her? she didn't come to the white house and. hang with us in the press briefing room. she was a presence, especially during that time where she got the sadat begin. all that was done, obviously away, from the white house. but when we travel wild with her, she was just she was that that new year's eve in tehran at midnight, they brought the travel pool. me and couple of other reporters up to the the elegant ballroom of the the avalon palace. they opened the doors and there was president carter and mrs. carter shah of iran, king hussein of jordan. and they just all said, happy new year, toast and champagne and everything. and i said, mr. president, you're going to go to egypt tomorrow to see president sadat. why is that? he went one. barbara wasn't there because. she and john chancellor of nbc and some the other bigwigs had been invited to the party they were off dancing somewhere and indeed, a few minutes later, we went back downstairs. the president's secret service agent, -- kiser, came and got me said, the president needs to s

that's the thing in any white house. and andrea, of course you know that from having covered it for so long. basically there are people there who may be invisible to the outside world, who are really key players and positions in remarkable polices to see what's going on, and she was one of them obviously, right, cassidy hutchinson was one of them outside the chief of staff's office at a critical moment january 6th and the weeks prior to that. they end up becoming important witnesses because they are the eyes and ears in a way, and may not be policy participants, but they understand what's happening. you're showing pictures of her with rick perry, the former governor of texas, became secretary of energy. she knew all the members of the cabinet. they knew her. she knew the vice president, the chief of staff, she knew all of these people. she understand what was happening, and who came in and out. who the president wanted to see and didn't want to see. these were key. she tells an anecdote in her book that i find revealing.

but to eventually to the white house. once he became president, they will not stipulate that is a defense strategy. they want to bog the jury down and as much mundane task testimony as possible, which is why for we're hearing from her about the journey these checks take. well, most people will probably be thinking and talking about stormy daniels testimony and the salacious things we heard. in fact, is when the jury goes eventually to engage in their deliberations about the actual criminal charges here allegedly falsifying business records. i heard testimony is going to be something that they are going to have to consider it. think about, okay, let's think about where these checks came from. who had eyes on them? where they were going. so not the most exciting witness, but she is an important building block to try to prove these charges. i mean, this jury probably needs a bit of a breather. i mean, they just listened to six hours of intense testimony and intense cross-examination from trump's team. i mean, there are some

the recordings to the white house. these recordings are important to our investigations because of the superior evidence that the transcripts -- the recordings provide because transcripts do not capture demeanor evidence. there is evidence that the white house has doctored official transcripts to hide a verbal slip-up from president biden already. if they are already doctoring official transcripts, we need the tapes. we need the tapes, and they have an obligation to provide them to us. i yield back. chair jordan: the gentleman yields back. the question occurs on the amendment offered by the gentleman from new york. so many as are in favor say aye. those opposed, no. in the opinion of the chair, the noes have it. the amendment is not agreed to. roll call being requested. the clerk will call the roll. >> mr. jordan. >> no. mr. jordan votes no. mr. issa. mr. gaetz. mr. biggs. mr. mcclintock. mr. mche chloroquine tock votes no. mr. tiffany, votes no. mr. massie. mr. massie votes no. mr. roy, mr. roy votes no. mr. bishop. m

remember when i was a white house correspondent during the minor change to a transcript and the whitee press corps lost its mind. and then tony snow added a reference to gordon genre because he left the amount of remarks that he made the press corps lost its mind again. first of all there's a normalization of this it's happened 148 times according to "the daily caller" this year, no one says boo and then the fact that biden made nine mistakes in one speech off a teleprompter? >> wow, john. outside of jacqui heinrich and peter doocy who did a report on this we are not seen much from the white house press corps as far as calling this out and they have as you said 148 chances to do so. i mean this is a white house that has repeatedly changed transcripts after the fact for three years now. all while thinking we are either too dumb or stupid or lazy to notice. fortunately there is social media and especially twitter and x and publications like "the daily caller" and those of the great equalizer so now this is getting tons of attention online and rightly so. overall, john, we have seen the
