, that he white exterior stays. he was a freemason, he appreciated the craftsmanship. when he rebuilt the white house, he also added subbasements. and only looks like it is two stories when it is about six stories. on top of that addition, the other thing to keep in mind with one of the things truman really wanted to do, he did not want to change anything drastically as it had been from the 1902 renovation. the only major change he did was the grand staircase. during roosevelt -- teddy roosevelt's time, the staircase went out into the hallway. it is not very conducive for people wanting to see the president and first lady descend the stairs. he altered it so it has the viewing platform so they can get their picture taken, then they come out in the entrance hall which is a wider space. everybody can see them there. that is the only major change that truman approves of during the renovation. host: was it tough door arthur who installed the tiffany glass? yes, you're nodding your head. something later presidents were h

once it moved to the white house grounds, you could smell the white house easter egg roll before he can see it. >> if they did not find some of the eggs and hard-boiled eggs were left to rot, that really created a problem. jonathan: that was the problem. and it was something that even happened in the 20th century. there was one year in the nixon administration where they decided to use a lot more real eggs and a few got misplaced shall we say, for a wild, and that was the last time he did that. 1876 was rutherford b. hayes. why did president hayes and his family decide they wanted to take over this tradition? jonathan: the president was out on his daily walk and some schoolchildren covered him and said we have no place to roll our eggs now. he said that is odd. why don't you just come back with me and you can roll eggs on the white house grounds? a couple hundred children did that first year in 1878. , you tell goes by this in your story -- first of all, who did the illustrations? jonathan: john hutton. absolutely genius art history historian. towhat were you trying collaboratively achi

you are the white house counsel.resident seems to understand that the word kwu"kw" counsel means lawyer in this context, but the president doesn't understand that the white house counsel is not his personal lawyer who needs to do as he directs. the white house counsel works for the presidency. the white house counsel's job is not to clear things up in the press to make the president look good on the president's orders. the president appears to be somewhat flummoxed by this slowlily dawning revelation. but then this is the next page, page 117. quote, the president asked mcgahn in the meeting why he had told the special counsel's office that the president had told him to have mueller removed. mcgahn responded that he had to tell the special counsel's office that and that his conversations with the president were not protected by attorney/client privilege. at which point dawn starts to break for the president, right? wait, wait, now. you have been telling the special counsel true things? you have been telling the specia

another key point here is white supremacy and white nationalism. under undergirding all these issues in the world has been white supremacy. it's important to remember that the first others in the united states were native americans and african-americans, and the ways in which we interacted with every other group that came after them was always in relation to where they fit on this hierarchy of our ways of knowing of whether they were savages or violent, fit to be citizens, fit to become americans. so i'd like us to, as we engage in this discussion about intersections today, i'd like us to think about that historical foundation as well. some of our panelists you have been introduced to, but they were much too humble. on your far right, professor todd green, associate professor of religion at luther college in decorah, iowa. advi adviser in the state department in washington, d.c. two books on islamophobia, "the fear of islam col: introduction islamophobia in the west" and "why we shouldn't fear terrorism." we'll hear more about his article and get t

, white nationalism, and white supremacy. that is my preface. a few things, briefly, just to get it going. first, i am glad we have this panel on this particular topic, the intersections of anti-semitism, islamophobia, white supremacy/white nationalism. it is important that we talk more about this. we are starting to see more public conversations outside of new zealand and that is good as long as we can sustain it. you see it perpetrated. the manifesto is peppered with comments -- starts with earth right, right -- birth rights, right? fear of the loss of white identity in europe and the west. replacement. muslims and immigrants coming to replace us, right? that ist a big surprise on a with that kind of ideology. he is not unique. whatever that manifesto is, it is not unique. it is the same anxieties have been hearing for a long time, uttered by other political figures in other ways, including donald trump, but not just him. marine le pen in france, the viktor-- the durban -- urban in hungary. the views themselves, the world v

whiteness was not fixed. whiteness was perpetually fluid. whiteness always vacillates. what i want to address is whiteness is narrowing. it is becoming far more narrow in definition, discursively. and popular -- popularly, the way it is framed on the ground. one of the first books i read in that class was a book by kieran brodkin called "when jews were not white folks." this idea that jewish identity in the late 19th and early 20th century effectively excluded practicing jews coming from the european continent as being bona fide whites, even though many jews who did not express their religious identity in vivid, conspicuous terms could pass as white. the more they freely expressed -- exercised their religious identity, the less white they became. what we saw with anti-semitism at that era is escalating today, we see vividly what took place in squirrel hill at the pittsburgh synagogue, many months ago, individuals of what took place at pittsburgh is weak juxtapose them with what took place in new zealand, exactly the same thing. in the same drivers, motivation, ideology,

you know, the white house over here and their allies outside of the white house have been taking issue with some of that, and i think that is something that the white house is trying to avoid at this point, seeing mcgahn in front of those cameras testifying under oath and saying, basically, what he told the special counsel, robert mueller. i will tell you that this official i spoke with earlier this evening said the president is in a fighting mood, is the way this official described it, when it comes to all of these requests that are coming in across this, you know, range of investigations that we're seeing come from the house democrats up on capitol hill, anderson. >> yeah, and as we mentioned, there's another aide that they're trying to stop him from testifying, is that right? i mean, this is not the only testimony the white house is trying to block. >> reporter: that's right. they don't want carl klein, who is a former white house official who had some oversight over white house security clearances -- they don't want him testifying. they're trying to block that testimony as well. an

and tell otherwise females and white males, we've got to understand white privilege. we have got to understand that we get special treatment that unfortunately a college educated black man may not get, even though he has more education, more money, more going for him on paper than i do, and so you take the paper away and look at his skin, and now he doesn't have the same opportunity. those difficult conversations are the best way you can honor heather's legacy. my wife reminds me quite often that if you see something wrong out there, speak up about it. a lot of times, we don't speak up. you see someone getting treated unfairly and shake your head and walk away. doesn't do ahead thing for that situation. you have to speak up and say something. be polite about it, but speak up. concluding our conversation, i want to circle back to our specific recommendations for members. combining two questions, it may have to be a rapidfire round. what can congress do right now to stop a crime, and can each speaker go through their concrete recommendations to members of congress to ad

for us to condemn white nationalism. it's an opportunity that is unfortunate but important in this hearing. we saw the lives take root in the attacker who murdered in charlottesville, it shows he was ill, his mind was sick, but his heart was sick as well. i join every american who denounces. we took action and one of the words of our colleagues when they ran counter to our values. american values show nothing with white nationalism. i appreciate the chance to consider how to combat this violence associated with this ideology. both of the individual and national level. hatred and rachel continue to play out in western china where there being detained in education camps and killed. it's gone rampant in iraq. over and over again, history has warned racism and hate mobilize people for violence and oppression. why haven't we learned these lessons. why haven't we here more closely to the ideal that all men are created equal. in other bedrock principles of our nation. our hearts ran quickly to hate. we hunt and embraced any dat

some white people, i will judge everyone, some white people, until you wake up, until you wake up and recognize racism, nothing will happen. you have to judge your heart. that man from massachusetts, please take a seat and sit down. let me say this. donald trump is promoting hate and white supremacy in america. i'm scared. i'm afraid. i leave in birmingham, alabama, where dr. king made the statement. if we can capture racism in alabama, we can capture it anywhere. people going he -- some white people are going around white now, calling the police on black people without a reason. wake up america. donald trump is promoting hate. nobody wants to face that. get on your knees and ask god what is going on. some white people in america need to wake up, we are sick and tired of being sick and tired. host: what about birmingham clarke?miss is this largely in the south are happening all over the country? guest: there is no community .hat is immune there are three african-american churches, three black churches that were just targeted next-door to the caller in louisiana. we see hate all over,

we will arrest your white house aides and your former white house counsel and anybody else you're trying to keep from testifying to us. we will arrest them and compel their testimony. you sure you want the say that he can't be here? that was the response from the watergate committee in 1973. and so, yes, john dean testified, and we know how that worked out in 1973. it took a long time after his testimony, but a little over a year later is when president nixon had to resign. that's when they moved toward passing the articles of impeachment against him. well, now this president is trying to as of today stop all white house staffers, including specifically his white house counsel don mcgahn from testifying under subpoena from congress. you can see why the president would be wanting to block all white house aides from testifying and specifically don mcgahn. but it turns out the way president trump is trying to stop that testimony before congress not only looks like it won't work, it might also be getting this president in further trouble. and what's interesting to me about that prospect is t

he searched white homeland and when are whites going to wake up. please god, let there be a race war. >>> a helpless young child putting a human face on the crisis at the border. a 3-year-old was found by himself at the border. the child was crying and had his name and phone numbers written on shoes. u.s. customs and border protections are trying to contact the boy's family. authorities say this is not the first time it has happened. unfortunately, it is unlikely to be the last. >>> pacific gas and electric wants to pass the buck to customers. they are requesting a rate hike to offset billions in fines and liabilities from devastating wildfires. pg&e says it's probable the equipment started the 2018 campfire, the deadliest and most destructive. the company is asking state legislatures to increase rates by an average of $22 a month. they are already an average of $167 a month. despite that, a federal judge approved plans for pg&e to pay $235 million in employee bonuses this year. >>> 17 parents, including lori loughlin demanding to see the evidence

something that should certainly give the white house pause and also give the white house reason to be even more alert as these investigations going forward. one thing is certain, wolf. we've seen this today, we've seen this repeatedly over the first three months of this house democratic majority. they aren't going to stop anytime soon. in fact, the expectation is, everything's only going to be expanded from here going forward. >> it will go forward, there's no doubt about that. phil mattingly, thank you very much. as president trump threatens to close the entire southern border with mexico this week, we're told the white house is considering appointing a so-called czar to manage the surge of migrants coming into the united states from mexico. let's go to our senior white house correspondent, pamela brown. pamela, what are you hearing about the president's ultimatum? will he actually go ahead and shut down, close that border? >> well, i can tell you, wolf, with the administration officials i've been speaking with today, that is the question they're all asking. many of them, who would b

white house. look, if the attorney general said he consulted with the white house, do you and i really believe that they kept it secret from the president of the united states? i don't believe that. >> what do you make of this special gift to the white house of a couple days of briefing to help them put together their trashing of the report, basically. >> it's pretty outragious and brings to mind two things. they have been paying a lot of attention to the college admissions scandal and your kids do better when they get the test results in advance. much more importantly, this is an incredible violation of our checks and balances and incredible insult to congress. we should all be offended that this white house is coordinating with the justice department and what seems like another act of obstruction to impede whether and how the russians affected our 2016 election and what they are planning for the next election. >> you have somebody tell you what you ought to know from the newspaper. their way. th

experience in the white house, and what we know about how this white house operates.have a president that, instead of wanting to be truthful to the american people about what exactly is going on, cannot be trusted with regards to the truth and not only cannot be trusted with regards to the truth, i'm afraid cannot be trusted with regards to upholding the rule of law. and that raises a lot of concerns about the future of this presidency. and what will happen, particularly if a crisis occurs. >> the sheer volume of lies, though, it's -- there's kind of a shamelessness to it all. i mean, you have sarah sanders today not even owning up to, you know, making up stuff about countless fbi agents calling her. she said the countless was a slip of the tongue. but it's not like she ever came out an hour later after saying it or two hours later or the next day and said, you know what, i was thinking back, i said this countless thing, it wasn't countless. that was a slip of the tongue. she didn't say that until today when it had just been revealed what she actually said to mueller

white effort cheap. it actually held white people back in the class structure because it only enriched the people who owned the slaves. now, only a minority of white northerners cared enough about slavery to want to see it immediately abolished. if southerners wanted to keep slavery, that was fine with most white northerners. they don't really care much about black freedom. they don't care much about black rights. they don't care much about black equality. but a much larger number of northerners could agree that they don't want to live in a slave society. they don't want to work in a slave society, and these differing perspectives on slavery, they had been getting wider and further apart since the revolution. and they really start to diverge in the age of jackson. the south becomes more and more dedicated to slavery even as the northern experience with slavery becomes part of the distant past, right? it sort of disappears from people's memory. but all these arguments, everything i've talked about today,

the white house said no, make me do it. there is no mechanism in the law to make them do it. >> there isn't a mechanism except that you may end up in the supreme court with something like this. >> with john roberts and two appointees of donald trump. >> john roberts is an institutionalist who wants to protect the reputation of the court. he is both ways on that. what trump is doing now is worse than what nixon did. when nixon was president nks he sister first asserted executive privilege over the don mcgahn of his administration. he gave up on that. he stopped asserting executive privileges and how we learned about the tapes and as you know, dean testified at great length. what trump is doing is more lawless than nixon. when criminal matters are being investigated, you could not assert executive privilege on behalf of the president. ultimately that case would have gone to the supreme court had nixon not given up that. may be where we go with this. then you may have a president who disobeys the ruling of the supreme court. >

house, was to condemn white nationalism and white supremacy. i'm very proud of this. and i'm also proud of the fact that earlier this year when a member of my own party made inexcusable remarks, republican leadership acted quickly and disciplined him. in fact, that member sits on zero committees right now. it's a shame the can't be said for my colleagues across the aisle. they continue to stand by and accept anti semitic remarks from a member of their own party. they couldn't even unite around a simple resolution to condemn anti-semitism without watering it down. last year, 11 jewish worshippers were killed and six others wounded at the tree of life synagogue, just outside my district in pittsburgh, pennsylvania. the day after that cowardly act, i stood in solidarity with americans of all religions, of all races, of all ethnicities, at a vigil to honor the victims of that crime. we have to come together as a nation to stand up against hatred and bigotry in all forms, and all forms includes anti-semitism. so mr. kline, what do you think congress can do to combat the ri

i guess -- >> you can't whitewash white nationalism with a bogus argument that the white supremacistsis who openly paraded their hate on the streets of charlottesville were protesting the removal of a statue of robert e. lee who waged war on the united states, a brutal slave owner, who fought for the continued enslavement of millions of african-americans. millions of people who looked like me. >> you said there were very fine people on both sides. >> i've answered that question. and if you look at what i said you will see that that question was answered perfectly. and i was talking about people that went because they felt very strongly about the monument to robert e. lee, a great general, whether you like it or not he was one of the great generals. i've spoken to many generals here right at the white house. and many people thought of the generals they think he was maybe their favorite general. people were there protesting the taking down of the monument of robert e. lee. everybody knows that. >> everybody knows, we all heard what went on in charlottesville. there were not very fine pe

[applause] >> earlier today, president trump welcome to the children of white house staff and the white house press corps to the white house in recognition of "take our daughters and sons to work day," from the south lawn, this is about 15 minutes. [applause] young, beautiful people. there is nothing like it. so it is "take our beautiful children to work." sons and daughters, and it is a great honor to have you what the white house. you have made tours come you've been with the secret service, you've been with some of the great people including your parents, right? are your parents great people? i think some. -- i think so. if they are not, we got a big story. i want to welcome all the young people, great people, the future, to the white house. ands a very special day officially called "take our daughters and our sons to work date." correctthe politically term and we always have to be politically correct, right? i know your parents are very proud of you. they are very, very proud and a lot of parents are here. most of them are here and i see sarah, your beautiful kids and so many. the m

let's go to our senior white house correspondent, pamela brown. pamela, is the president serious about shutting down the entire border with mexico? >> well, wolf, white house officials i've been speaking with today say it's anyone's guess what the president will do with this latest threat to close the border with mexico. one administration official i spoke with today said such a move would be catastrophic. and wolf, tonight, administration officials involved in carrying out the policies are closing watching the president's tweets as cues as to what he might do. president trump tonight, not backing away from threats to close the u.s. border with mexico, as soon as this week. tweeting, we have a major national emergency at our border. get it done now. administration officials warn that the ultimatum he launched last week -- >> we'll keep it close for a long time. i'm not playing games. >> reporter: -- is serious. >> it's certainly not a bluff. you can take the president seriously and here is why. you're giving those metrics, but what he's looking at

now, on top of this, kate, she claims that the white house retaliated against her, white house officials have, and she said that she was forced to come forward before this committee. now, elijah cummings says that he does plan to subpoena an individual, carl klein, who served as the personal security director at the white house, he plans to do that this week. we have not heard back from klein or the white house or any of those individuals, but we did hear just back from the top republican on this committee, jim jordan, who calls this a reckless use of whistleblower information, says that cummings is mischaracterizing ms. newbold what she told the committee sand said these 25 individuals one was a gsa official on the custodial staff. clearly the democrats are in the majority, they plan to pursue this in the days ahead. >> regardless, i think especially when you see that dispute between cummings and jordan on there, more information coming out would be better to clear up exactly what's going on here. great to see you, manu, thank you so much. >>> to be clear, the president has the unique p

let's talk about the white house correspondents dinner with the white house reporter from politico. good morning. >> good morning. >> as background for our viewers, tell us what the white house correspondents dinner is, how long has it been around, and why is it important? >> it has become this full weekend of parties, political intrigue, it has ballooned into a 4 day affair. >> normally, if i'm not mistaken, the president attends this dinner, but president trump is not attending, and has not since winning the white house? instead, he will be in green bay? why is president trump not going to this dinner? >> he says it is a very boring dinner that was mean to him last year and the previous years. he doesn't want to reward the press with attending their premier function every year. it has become a point of contention. his staff notld to attend the dinner and the events around it. they may relax that a little bit. president trump has such bad relations with the media. he craves our approval so much. he can't really decide whether he loves us, hates us, or both. attend thepresident dinn

now, being a white house historian, the story of the white house does not end in 1820, it continues and changes and evolves. all of a sudden, you find yourself using all of your knowledge of american history and starting to connect the dots. in terms of major changes in american society or demographic or economic changes. you can see these things unfolding at the white house. of those things where you do not really learn the depths of the history until you get into the job, then you realize how incredibly complicated and complex it actually is. host: what is your story, how did you get to the association? lindsay: we were both at mount vernon as follows. we were there for an extended period of time. dissertation on my on washington, a different aspect. we stayed friends and touched base occasionally about what we were up to. i had a postdoctoral fellowship at the presidential history in dallas. that was coming to an end. they happened to have an opening. matt called me and said hey, we have this position coming up, would you like to apply? i said sure. it all worked out and i started in

how does the white house function like that? >> i worked on the clinton white house, it wasn't perfect but it sure didn't function that way. there you had a president -- and we've had presidents of both parties, frankly until now, who when they are told by legal counsel, sir, this is a line that we should not cross, the presidents understand that. they might find ways to work around it, they might find ways to change the law, but i've never seen one who just blatantly seems to do as this president does. i don't care. do it any way. that is extraordinary to me. >> kim, you wrote yesterday that the president's actions seem a lot like obstruction. as you have time to focus on and reflect, do you still believe that? and if that is the case, was it just the fact that mueller's operating under the department of justice guidelines and not only exception to the -- accepts the guidelines and it would be unfair if he can't be indicted and go to court to defend himself. >> absolutely. the obstruction of justice statute is very broad. mr. b

he is still at the white house. again, president trump heading to atlanta, georgia, leaving behind what may be a new challenge to congressional oversight of the white house. last night the president telling "the washington post" he may keep his aides from testifying before congress since he's already cooperated with special counsel robert mueller's probe. quote, there's no reason to go any further and especially in congress where it's very partisan. obviously very partisan. i don't want people testifying to a party, because that is what they're doing if they do this. peter alexander on his post at white house. jeff bennett there for us at little. mr. alexander, i will start with you. did the president have anything to add to what he might do when congress does call administration officials to testify? >> reporter: well, we may hear from him in his own words just moments from now he'll be boarding marine one. reporters are staking him out there. if he says anything we'll turn that around for you right away. of course

house. >> if they work in the white house. this has been reaffirmed many times, most recently during the obama administration and by their doj. i think they're going to run into some serious roadblocks if they come after kushner and ivanka and the poster who exist as the senior-most layer in this white house. >> let's turn to the fact that jerry nadler and the judiciary committee is trying to subpoena the full mueller report. president trump tweeted today, quote, no matter what information is given to the crazed democrats from the no-collusion mueller report, it will never be good enough. does he have a point there? i know you disagree with him, but the bottom line is, democrats are going to be trying to talk about the mueller report no matter what it says. >> but the american public wants to see the mueller report. people feel as if they paid for it, they feel as if this is something they want to see. democrats are acting on behalf of people who elected them, the majority. and they want to see the report and underlying data.

author of a book on whiteness. that writer, jonathan metzel, director of the center of medicine, health and society at vanderbilt university and the author of "dying of whiteness: how the politics of racial resentment is killing ma america's heartland." >> thanks for having me. >> so you were doing the talk and -- >> i was in the middle of giving a book talk and this was a very friendly environment in politics, and ironically in the moment of the talk where i was making the claim america is better when we are the most generous, strongest and inclusive, there was a man in the audience, 80-year-old man, who had been one of my father's host families who helped my father escape the nazis and get to the united states. so i was lauding this version of america that welcomes immigrants in. and everybody is facing me and i'm facing out and i see this well-organized -- very well-organized chain of eight or ten white men and women. there was a woman also who marched to the front. there was a guy in front with a bu bullhorn, a

boost® high protein be up for life. >>> the white pagoda is a big white tower and a beautiful nationalchina just northwest of shanghai. very nice. three years ago, 2016, the chinese government announced plans to build a smaller duplicate of the white pagoda here in the united states in a new chinese garden at the national arboretum in washington, d.c. and right away after they made that announcement, people started to kind of freak out about the possibility of a new chinese white pagoda in downtown washington, d.c. this is how "the wall street journal" explained it. quote, the project was deemed a national security risk because it included a 70-foot-tall white tower that could potentially be used for surveillance. quote, the garden was planned on one of the higher patches of land near downtown washington less than five miles from both the capitol and the white house. "the journal" then reported that this woman was believed to be lobbying for that white tower behind the scenes on behalf of the chinese government. her name is wendi deng murdoch. she is a prominent chinese american busine

>>> white house consultant. there's a new report out that justice department officials have had numerous conversations with white house lawyers about the special counsel's conclusions in recent days. how much did they reveal to the president's team? >>> two reports. the justice department reveals that some members of congress will get to see a less redacted version of the mueller report than the one that's made public. will that satisfy democrats demanding to see everything. we want to welcome our viewers in the united states and around the world. i'm wolf blitzer. you're many t you're in "the situation room." >>> we're following a lot of breaking news on the trump administration's roll out of the redacted mueller report from now. the justice department confirming that william barr will hold a news conference at 9:30 a.m. tomorrow morning to discuss the report and will take questions. tonight president trump says he may hold his own news conference after barr speaks. the justice department revealing that a secon

>> white nationalism is one of the many euphemisms for white supremacy. the core ideology of white supremacy now used to be before the civil rights movement to be to keep the dominance of the white race. now it is fear of the imminent, genocide of the white race by a and otheron-whites people they considered degenerates, which they say the asod is orchestrated by jews parasitic puppeteers. >> thank you. i am an immigrant from ecuador. would white nationalists perceive me as a threat? somebodyimmigrant, as x, yes, latina, latin that is the dominant ideology. >> and my husband is jewish. would he be perceived as a threat? >> he would be perceived as some omnipotent, parasitic force, loyal only to his own race and a threat to the white race. >> and my children who were born in this incredible nation, but whose parents are a mix of latino and jewish, would they be perceived as a threat? >> yes. what they consider miscegenation, whether that is african-american and white or ,omething else, they would be and as having parents, both of whom are from communities

this is one white house. one white house group of senior advisers. one white house counsel's office that will be fielding document requests, email requests, aides testimony, those aides will have defense lawyers. this is a big burden to take on if you plan to fight it all. >> it is. just to the bigger point here that the president is not wanting to comply because he calls congress a partisan organization. it is by nature a partisan organization. that's not news. that's how it works. this is how divided government works. and he's learning that the hard way. but the treasury department is making clear they're stone walling and slowing down any potential release of his tax returns. they are not -- so they're stone walling that. any more information about the security clearances and how jared kushner was granted one, they're stone walling that. not letting aids testify. the problem with the mcghan situation in particular is this question of executive privilege. mcghan has already sat for hours and hours in front of the special counsel. and the question h

remember, key white house officials current and former members in the white house spoke to robert mueller's team, don mcgahn, reince priebus, steve bannon, hope hicks, stephen miller just to name a few and they were key witnesses in the obstruction of justice probe. my colleague laura jarrett is reporting that is the section of the report released later today that is lightly redacted and their names are expected to be revealed. remember they spoke to robert mueller's team under penalty of lying to the fbi which lends more credence to what they told mueller's investigators. so that is going to be key. that's really what we're focused on. at the time the strategy in the white house was to let robert mueller speak to basically whoever he wanted to besides the president in order to try to prevent an interview with the president. well, that may have worked, but as one source says that i spoke with, one of the witnesses who spoke to robert mueller's team, that may not be good for these former and current white house aides who may have provided embarrassing information about the president and i am

there are people in law enforcement and elsewhere who think white nationalism and white supremacy is a growing threat. now we've had the second fatal synagogue shooting in six months. i'm not saying it's president trump's fault. >> i think there's anti christianity. they're not eastern worshippers, obama and hillary clinton. she wouldn't call it -- >> who? >> i'm not talking about hillary. i'm talking about donald trump. >> he didn't think white nationalism is a growing threat around the world. i'm asking -- >> he does think it's a threat. >> of course he thinks it's a threat. that's why he condemned it in no uncertain terms. >> he said six weeks ago he doesn't think it's a threat. >> he said growing threat. >> it's horrible wherever it is and people should be driven out. for joe biden who has been in public life who was elected at 29 to come out and have no vision, no accountability for the obama-biden record, didn't even mention charlottesville. >> president trump said he thought his response to charlottesville was perfect. gary cohn, lindsey graham, cory gardner. >> you want to ta
