we sued the new york times and we've scored a victory against them. these are the words from the judge and the supreme court of the state of new york saying that it was the new york times that engaged in disinformation and deception. listen to this. >> the articles that are subject of this action called the video deception, but the dictionary says disinformation and deceptive applies to the failure to note they injected their opinions in these articles as they now claim. >> they injected their opinion in a news article and that opinion was used by the claimant's opinion. and we sued them for defamation, but facebook is banning the video based on an opinion? well, think about that, that's precisely the very disinformation and misinformation they're projecting onto me. we have to do something, here is another clip, this is on christmas eve. the judge ruled against the new york times, sometimes the new york times got access to my attorney/client privilege documents after the fbi raid, they published those documents. i mean, these are the documents writte

they shouldn't be publishing these documents. >> 6392121 versus "the new york times" company. ech and the press and the attorney-client privilege. that will be the first time that you quoted me right. thank you. >> it was pretty cool to see the judge go after "the new york times." they've never been held accountable in their lives. they think they are above the law. i think itad was deemed the hitf "the new york times" says we don't get religion. it has a different status as a news organization. the law applies equally. project a veritas will be deposing "the new york times" reporters undergrowth, on video asking them questions and releasing those deposition videos to the world to see.

this breaking news in the new york times tonight. if true answers a bunch of questions including that bombshell of donald trump himself was examining these records at the end of 2021 before they handed back anything at all, donald trump was locked looking in the boxes himself. >> and if the rest of the reporting was true he was hand looking through the stuff himself before they handed over about 150 documents marked classified but retained another hundred 50 documents marked classified and he personally was sifting through them to decide what he's going to hold on to. if the times is reporting is correct, that just ranks itself into an indictment, in terms of him personally making decisions to retain classified documents marked as classified after he had been told by the government to hand them over. that is cut and dry. >> then there is that point that so many of us were wondering about because we had reports for a while now indicating that one of the trump lawyers signed a document after the june visit by the fbi and justice depart

nomination hearing in the senate did the same thing and didn't answer questions the headline in the new york times was she follows precedent. time and time again want the media is easy on the democrats and relentless on the republicans. and that's where i blow my whistle and i'll give you one final example that's in my book. in 1998 when stacy abrams lost their governor's race in georgia by a margin that was four times the size of donald trump's defeat in georgia. she lost by more than 50,000 votes trump lost by about 12,000 votes. she refused to acknowledge the legitimacy of her opponent's when the republican win senator cory booker booker of new jersey said the election was stolen senator sherwood brown of ohio said the election was stolen if the media had called them out and said you should not say elections were stolen you undermine our democracy. the election was settled fair and square. how dare you use those words. the press would have had so much more credibility taking on donald trump when he said the same thing in 2020. the election wasn't stolen donald trump did lose it. i've said right

"new york times" justice department reporter"n katie benr joins us live. >>> andnn in a new york courtro, trump's long-time top executive pleads guilty admitting he conspired with the former trump company to not pay taxes and now he will testify against the trump organization. >>> sue craig, "the new york times" reporter who has led the reporting on trump's finances is here in the studio tonight. >>> and the biden cabinet, dispatched to take the president's case to republicans and fox news. transportation secretary pete buttigieg joins us live. >>> but first, we start in september of 2015. donald trump was three months removed from his famed escalator ride announcing his presidential bid. he had already started the top of the republican field leading off the polls and found himself showing off his trump tower office to "the wall street journal." >> this is the shoe right "ther >> that is it? >> tom brady's super bowl helmet. this is mike tyson's belt. >> shaq's shoe. tom brady's super bowl helmet. mike tyson's belt. we have known for a while that donald trumpow likes to collect memorabil

sort of the founder of wikileaks because, you know, all journalists, certainly including "the new york timeshe same sort of balancing act all the time. we write stories all the time that people would rather not have us write and that cause people no end of grief and trouble and sometimes, you know, ends up with them in jail, and that's the nature of, you know, sort of informing the public about important things. certainly though, julian assange drew the line in many instances in a different place than we would've drawn it, and sometimes he argued there was no line. michael: incrsingly, assange hf was becoming a story his collaborators could not ignore. scott: at some point, you know, we wrote a "new york times magazine" story about assange that talked about his dirty socks, and he took great offense, and, you know, and that did capture the tension in the relationship because, on the one hand, he was a very significant figure in the news and a very colorful figure in the news, and if you describedim in a sort of direct and honest way, you know, the result was not always pretty. alan: i mean,

joining our discussion now is charles blow, columnist for the new york times and an msnbc political analysts, thank you very much for joining us again tonight. >> absolutely. >> you have said what has been clear for very long time, the problem is the voters. they are the people who delivered donald trump to the electoral college victory, they are the people who believe his lies. they are the people who have gone beyond his lies, into wilder beliefs in the qanon space that even donald trump doesn't advocate. but there is a news convention -- and i think it is beyond the a convention, i think it is built into the very mindset of so many people in the news business -- that you must never even think -- even -- think that the voters are a problem. it has to be something else. it cannot be them. >> absolutely. and i am the first to say that propaganda is big and misinformation big. and they are real things. and they do lead some people a stray. but this is not what is happening here with conservatism in this country, and particularly in this moment. conservatism in this country has always been ag

here is the new york times today describing trump's time in office. quote, white house aides described how excited trump was to show of all the material he had access to, including letters from the north korean leader kim jong-un, which he routinely waved at visitors, allowing his advisers. some of those letters were among the trove that mr. trump had with him at mar-a-lago. so, is that why federal agents retrieved within 25 boxes of documents from trump's florida home last week? did he just want to show off his 11 sets of classified papers to friends and guests? papers that the fbi took last week? hey, guys, look, look! this one is marked classified! that one, over there! it is marked top secret, check it out! sure, maybe. or it could be something more nefarious. because if that more innocent explanation is true, then why has trump not answered the single most important question of this entire saga. why didn't he just gave the documents back when the government asked for them, before a search warrant was even approved? why not simply hand them over.

thus far think it's been incredible success. >> you sprinkle in some criticism of the "new york times but would you say about the times lack of holding the administration accountablepo during those years or criticize the reporters who waited until the book came out, how do you think about the times role in all of this? >> what i think the "new york times" does incredible journalism, really, really important work for the stuff did in ukraine, he restores on the opioid crisis all these things because it a great stuff up. i picked the times and facebook they are by far the most influential parts of their respective elements for they are before the most important social mediaa company. the "new york times" is by far the most influential media organization. do much more influential we've ever been there so much less competition now they've got tv shows the whole thing. i think the criticism of the "new york times" and the larger traditional media this is not a both a side issue. we cannot have a political conversation for brief treatment democrats rendering kitchen table issues as same rep

records remaining at the club, according to a person familiar with the raid at any rate "the new york times" reports that according to senior officials at the white house, no one at the white house knew anything about any of this until they saw tweets about it online. of course, as "the times" goes onto report, mr. trump has been the focus of questions asked by federal prosecutors in connection with a scheme to send fake electors to congress for the certification of the electoral college. donald ayer is with us now donald, good to see you again. your top line thoughts about what we're hearing today >> well, i think the most significant thing is that we now have a search warrant for the home of donald trump and that isn't something that is done lightly if you go back in the common law, the main focus of the protection of the warrant was to protect the papers and property of people, and the home is the center of all of that. so this is going right to the heart of -- of what our criminal laws and the law requirement is designed to protect. this is not something they would think of doing with a

>> the new york times does credible journalism. they do really -- does incredible journalism. huge stories they broke. they do great stuff. i picked the times and facebook because they are by far the most influential parts of their respective elements. facebook is by far the most important social media company, the new york times is by far the most influential traditional media organization in the country. and they are way more influential than they have probably ever been because there is so much less competition now. and i think the criticism of the new york times and every answer to the larger traditional media is really that this is not a both sides issue. democracy is at stake here. we cannot have a political conversation where we treat them across trying to run on kitchen table issues the same as republicans trying to steal elections. press is not an unbiased entity. they have biases, they have things they advocate for. we know the press cares passionately about how many questions joe biden answers every week. like, that seems trite and annoying compared to a lot of thing

the new york times asked the judge to release the entire fbi affidavit. so, jonnel trump has publicly pretended to be in favor of releasing the entire affidavit but his lawyers did not file a motion with the judge asking the judge to release the affidavit. that is the truth, that is the truth of the trump position, and that is the proof that donald trump knows that releasing any part of the affidavit will be very damaging to donald trump. donald trump is playing a game here, he is protecting publicly that he wants every word of the affidavit released so that he come complain when it is not released or when there are rejections in the released affidavit, when that happens, donald trump will say it is a cover-up, about what is really going on here. these reductions are a cover-up. that the reductions are hiding what's really involved in the fbi searching his home. but donald trump has proved that he does not want anything about the search warrant or the affidavit released because donald trump has been able to release some of that information and he did not.

it's time these officials in new york -- and i'm glad you mentioned "the new york times" -- they haven't reported about this, about the chaos at the border. maybe finally "the new york times" will also start talking about the chaos at the border caused by the biden administration's changes. >> jesse: you're not handcuffing migrants and forcing them unwillingly on to buses and telling them, you're going to new york, you're going to washington, d.c., as they try to fight to get off the bus. that's not happening, right? >> exactly. they signed a waiver of agreement when they board that bus. >> jesse: okay, good, because some of these mayors, bowser in particular, can't imagine why anybody would ever want to go to d.c. she's, like, they can't want this to be their final destination, washington, d.c., the nation's capital. it's an indictment on her own governance. do you understand when mayor adams says, well, we have a housing problem. why can't they find housing in texas? what's your response to that? >> the cartel are not looking for housing in texas. the cartels coming through texas, they

. >> you are critical of "the new york times" but as my memory serves to say "the new york times" was the one that broke the hillary clinton e-mailsa story and was strong and critical to say there was something wrong of course nothing was wrong but that is liberals going after the liberal candidate. >> ite acknowledge that in a due site stories from other sources to say they're not always wrong but when they are there almost always wrong in the direction it hurts republicans or donald trump the whole collusion narrative that received the lions sharezy it was a relentless nonstop all wrong and based on nothing. and all gave liberals a reasonne to think that donald trump was legitimate. so that's a nice after three years of coverage and then when it was clear there was the fbi investigation they did cover it. but as soon as james comey said there were no charges to be made the story went awayti and then the press reset how dangerous donald trump was. >> talking about the whole collusion business obviously they said they did not see evidence specifically of don't thinkt i there's any que

york redistricting has two veterans facing off for one seat. they are 75 and 76 years old, and a third candidate, a 38-year-old former obama staffer, argues it's timeational change. another congressional race in new york city is a test of whether the moderate democrats can hold off the more progressive wing of the party. and the governor's race has implications. ron desantis would like nothing more than to win by a big margin to set up his presidential run that we anticipate. but first, today's democratic primary pits a woman promoted as the face of change against a former governor. by the way, whoever wins to challenge ron desantis will also face his $132 million campaign war chest. there's a lot to talk about. i want to bring in shaquille brewster. also with me is senior correspondent at a polling site in new york city. and editorial board member marin gay. this is an important contentious and competitive race for democrats in florida to take on ron desantis. i know you have talked to both candidates and voters across the state. >> reporter: one interesting thread i'm noticing, a similarity based on my conversations between the voters and the can

over 300 as a new york times reported.y once they went through trying to get these documents. and the long process that it may have been a legitimate investigation by the department of justice. >> that's why also plummets when i heard, -- gosh what was his name? anyway, who said it was them complying as best they could. he had seen no evidence that they had asked for a print job. and it started in january of 2022. all of this, this list i have here. >> all the times -- all the interactions. so what are they talking about? >> this is more direct. >> right. he is using this is a tactic to flood the zone. dominate the narrative. and also, he is already fundraising off of this request here. he has masterfully, i guess that's a word for it, been able to really dictate the narrative. because he was out the right out the gate. pre-trying himself as a victim. here's the key? is that the truth will come out in the end. and that will be the day that i don't think he will be the victim. >> one of the things his attorney said in this

christina bob signed it, according to the new york times. it cited to people familiar with that.ere is number two. the doj unconvinced by trump's lawyers, subpoenaed mar-a-lago surveillance tapes in late june. not to tape that eric trump is talking about. this was a surveillance tape from earlier, one that reportedly shows people moving boxes out of mar-a-lago and the storage room around the same time that the doj was asking if there was any more important documents down there at mar-a-lago. the tapes also reportedly show boxes being stuffed into a differing containers. again, around june 3rd. when trump's lawyers were saying essentially, you have everything already. of course today, we know that is not true at all. it matters. the times reports quote, that june 3rd statement, the one from the lawyers that is, along with visuals from the surveillance camera footage of the property and witness interviews, were said to be part of the concerns among investigators about obstruction. joining us now is a former united states attorney. thanks for so much for joining us. >> glad to be wi

i want to be ask you is you invoke new york times versus sullivan. there is you know, the supreme court said there has to be constitutional protection for false speech. so there's the breathing space for speech to survive the supreme court and subsequent cases distressed the protection of false speech given how much your book is concerned about false. speech. should we reconsider that premise of new york times versus sullivan? i don't think so because i think on that particular point the supreme court has evolved and it's thinking about false speech. i'm thinking of a case from 2012 called the united states versus alvarez, which is a very speech protective case. it's about a guy who lied about having won a congressional medal and the court in a kind of divided opinion said that that this law couldn't be enforced against the this this person but along the way the court said a lot of interesting things and one of those was the certain kinds of false speech where the where there is a compelling government interest in allowing it to be described so for e

we're also going to h ask him about this brand-new reporting that has just dropped from "the new york times." the headline, trump had more thantr 300 classified documentst mar-a-lago. this is "the times" for the first time quantifying the reportedly classified material that trump has apparently been keeping in his home in an unauthorized way. here's the lede. quote, the initial batch the documents retrieved by the national ar krievs from former president trump in january included more than 150 documents marked as classified. a number that ignited intense concern at the justice department and helped trigger the criminal investigation that led fbi agents to swoop into mar-a-lago this month, seeking to recover more. in total, the government has recovered more than 300 documents with classified markings on them from mr. trump since he left office. that first batch of documents returned in january. again, that was more than 150 documents marked classified. then another set of documents provided by trump's aides in june. and then also the material seized by the fbi in the search this month.

. >> host: you're you are critical of "new york times" that myor memory serves "the new york times" is the one that broke the hillary clinton e-mail story and was very very strong and critical in saying there was something wrong there. ultimately it was done nothing was wrong to gee that's the liberal press going after the liberal candidate.n guess who like ballads that. i cite stories from the near times the "washington post" and other sources and to make the point to say they are dolly's wrong but when they are wrong they are almost always wrong in the direction that hurts republicans and donald trump. the whole collusion to hold dossier narrative which received the lion's share of coverage in donald trump's verse 3 years, it was a was nonstop thing all based on nothing. all wrong. allll polarizing the nation. and it was destructive. the news was anti-trump got a bomb. they covered the hillary e-mail scandals, and they broke the news on those clear there was an fbi investigation they did cover it. as soon as comey said there were no charges to be made the story went away in the press
