according to the new york times. it was very important that we tried to show this year scaling volume a weapons floating in to ukraine. since last year, the united states alone has committed well over $40000000000.00 worth of military age. the government, e. u, and other states of also contributed tens of billions into what we know to be one of the least regulated states on earth. when it comes to control of corruption and institutional accountability. in addition, ukraine has spent billions of dollars of its own money on the private arms market. possibly the most difficult area to ascertain any kind of transparency in the, towards the, according to the over the 20 year period of the us invest, invent an intervention in afghanistan. the u. s. department of defense paid various companies about a $180000000000.00 in contracts for work performed in the country. with one 3rd of those contracts. spending remarkably going to on disclosed recipients, domestic and foreign businesses who are not uniquely identified in the pub

roughly at the same time, i was at a roundtable in new york. at the time the president of the council of foreign relations was president miguel, may he rest in peace he was someone i knew well . those who did not know him, he was a journalist and he wrote an excellent book on vietnam called the irony of vietnam, with richard betts. i've used that book in the past in my international relations courses. and when i spoke about -- against the war, he came to me afterwards and he said, i thought you were a realistic but you were against the war. i said, what do you mean about realists? and he said all the realists i know are for the war. and i said i do not know a single realist to is for the war. he named jim woolsey, richard pearl, charles gray hammer. i said to him, in my field, these are not realists they are neoconservatives. the term neoconservative at the time, it is household now, but it wasn't used much at all. what is a neoconservative? so it so happened i came home and i had a conversation with my colleague at chicago, john mayor steinberg

you might have read much of it in the new york times. but the way that it's put and presented may reveal a source, may reveal a method, and jeopardize lives in the fields if that's document comes out or falls into the wrong hands. and so that's why you have such a robust set of rules. and here, in this criminal trial, trump will try presumably a great man strategy, that's the strategy of saying look, there is a classified document i mishandled, you have to show it in open court. and our intelligence community is always worried about that, because that itself discloses sources and methods, so so there is a long compromise in dialogue between the justice department and the intelligence community in any sort of criminal trial. and one thing that happens sometimes is that you substitute under the classified information procedures act a sensitive document for something that looks like -- that is less sensitive or that redacts the information that you for in under. those are things that you really want someone from experience to handle, but un

this morning when i woke up this morning, there was a notification, my phone from the new york times that said carlos lozada latest. and so i don't normally click through the notifications but i went to that one right away and the headline said this is his new column just today in the new york times i the mueller ukraine and jan six reports as though they were one long book that didn't have to say so. you don't have to. so carlos lozada has been doing reading on our behalf since 2015, when he became nonfiction book critic for the washington post. that was right around the time that donald trump's first presidential campaign started when carlos the new york times last year, the paper celebrated his arrival by saying he had revolutionized the form of nonfiction book criticism, bringing ambition, rigor and brilliant writing to his consideration. the ideas, arguments, dynamic mix and politics that animates societies and shape human condition. a few years before that, the pulitzer prize committee lauded much the same characteristics they presented him with journalism's highest. much of hi

but it's such a problem that the new, the new york times had to address it. okay. because it is so you, big to it is in ukraine. and this is, you know, i look in europe and i did graduate studies in european history. what happened to europe worth the destroying your your, your prosperity and, and your isolated and creating isolation on the world stage as i find it, this is one of the most astounding outcomes of this complex lorenza or yeah. other than that, that's absolutely true. and i agree with the previous page, the problem, it actually is that we have this time here, the product specially i see here, we need to be completely changed the position comparing the for the work. you have to know that maybe you already know that the 90 percent of the citizens here needs on the role of al over russia. sylvia against the coffee by the government is complete. it is a me to do. we need to add it back to what is happening is that of course be, is what is destroying our economy, but it was a really hard to buy years. so call me go crazy is i'm busy is because easily has be

that is in the analysis section of the new york times.et's hear from david, republican line, indiana. caller: good morning. i appreciated the callers before me. it is amazing you can find all sorts of documents scattered around the biden residences. he took those when he was a senator, which is completely illegal. a felony. a president has the right to handle classified documents and make them unclassified whenever he wants. i knew you would not mention anything about the $5 million that was paid out by varese ma to the biden family. a member of the biden family is a teacher. where did he get the money to build all of his homes? amazing. the biggest corrupter is sitting in the white house. the biggest liar. controlled by the democratic puppets. caller: james -- host: james in new york, democrats line. hello. caller: i am elated the department and merrick garland have finally shown some sense of jurisprudence. i was beginning to think this country is going up in smoke because of all of the things that the ex-president has done and also wit

the new york times is reporting tonight that the charges include, willfully retaining national defense secrets. in violation of the espionage act. making false statements and an obstruction of justice conspiracy according to people familiar with the matter. here is what donald trump's criminal defense lawyer, james trusty, said on television tonight. >> this is not publicly accurate because i'm not looking at a charging document, i am looking at a summary sheet. so there's ones that might actually be reflecting on single counts too. but i think there was a conspiracy count as well. >> that means that there could be other indictments, have you been told that anyone else is indicted here? >> we weren't in fisa of anyone else being indicted. and i have a theory that some of the outrageous misconduct has affected in some other case. potential target. but bottom line is all we know about is our client. >> donald trump has been ordered to surrender for arrest processing and arraignment in federal court in miami on tuesday at three pm. this is how we got to hear. four months after donald trum

private military campaign wagner yevgeny prigozhin was preparing an establishment, writes the new york times and with reference to several sources familiar with intelligence data, now , according to the sources of the new york times, the authorities of the united states of america are trying to find out whether the harsh horse did not take any part in the development of this plan, according to the interlocutors of the publication , there are signs that the attempt to change the leadership of the russian ministry of defense even before the federation was initiated by force by prigozhyn could be supported by other generals and this of the russian army, sources of the publication believe that prigozhin would not have destroyed the establishment if he was not sure that he had high-ranking supporters, not here . it's really very interesting if you remember vasyl how it all started even long before friday evening, when prigozhin announced the march of justice on e- of moscow, when he wanted to oust the minister of defense sheik and the chief of the general staff gerasimo, he repeatedly said in his

but it's such a problem that the new, the new york times had to address it. okay. because it is so you, big to it is in ukraine. and this is, you know, i look in europe and i did graduate studies in european history. what happened to europe? i mean, is ukraine worth the destroying your your, your prosperity and, and your isolated and creating isolation on the world stage as i find it. this is one of the most astounding outcomes of this complex lorenza, a. yeah. doesn't, does. that's absolutely true. and i agree with the previous be is the problem. it actually is that we have it very rhetoric journal these 6 times here. the press specially i see here. we need to be completely changed the position comparing before and after the war. you have to know if maybe you already know that the 90 percent of citizens here needs only broiled l to russia. soviet against the coffee by the government is completely so me to do. we need to and that you for out of. so which of the prominent that's what is happening is that of course, is what is destroying our economy, but it was a rea

problems plaguing president biden, but it just goes to show the lengths to which people like new york times and a couple of the reporters on this piece are people that have been covering washington for decades. i've known both of them for a very long time. they are very seasoned reporters they have covered the white house for a long time but this is how completely dedicated they are now to partisan politic s, and to sort of air air brushing somebody, the president , in order to protect him and i think it also underscores the degree, the lengths to which i think the new york times will go to in order to keep him in the white house if the alternative is somebody they don't approve of and in this case, donald trump. ashley: right. all right, next one for you, charlie. it's not just the media whose trying to defend biden from criticism. federal democrat jamie raskin trying to down play concerns about biden's age. listen to this. >> i think that joe biden rightly says that he has grown very wise in his many decades in public office and i respect that , so i think that he deserves to be judged by

david wallace wells, "new york times" opinion writer.latest column is headlined "there's no escape from wildfire smoke and "as smoke darkens the sky, the future becomes clear." david is author of "the uninhabitable earth: life after warming." welcome back. it is great to have you with us . "as smoke darkens the sky, the future becomes clear." talk about what we are experiencing here in new york and through many parts of united states, how it connects to canada and what is happening there and how all of this relates to the climate catastrophe. >> in new york and across the eastern seaboard, we are breathing in toxic air. everyone who is outside can see it, feel it in their nose and eyes, can taste it in their mouths. this is not just unhealthy air, it is a level that has been judged to be hazardous. while it is true new york is registering unhealthiest air quality in the world, it is not just that we are breathing the equivalent air that people in delhi breathe every year where in that city the average resident loses nine plus years of li

fact that they had -- hw you y know, that he was feeding not just the administration but "the new york times" with all of this information that was bogus and exaggerated about saddam yoc know, hiding these weapons of mass destruction program. but at the same time, what they did reject on a number of occasions,reconsti beginning i on september 12th, if i recollect. was the fact that the -- while the intelligence community was n saying yeah,te we think he has reconstituted these programs, they rejected the intelligence community'sbi findings that it u highly unlikely that there was no cooperation between al qaeda, bin laden and saddam and highly unlikely there ever was or could be. that did not fit the public messaging and so, but they rejected that part of it. what we determined was a number of things. first of all, there could not have been -- hee could not have hidden a nuclear weapons program because it would have been impossible to hide. particularly when it comes to bh centrifuges which is what theat allegation was that he had the secret centrifuges that he had manufactured with these al

>> reason i wanted to write this book, i was covering the cia for "the new york times" at the time andyou remember, dick cheney started -- after 9/11, started complaining constantly that the reason the cia and the fbi had failed to uncover the terrorist plots was because of the church committee, which was a very odd thing to say because the church committee had taken place 25 years earlier. frank church was long dead by that time. but it became the mantra of the bush administration that it was the church committee's tighter rules on u.s. intelligence operations that had led to the weakness of intelligence. which was a lie. but it was a very powerful lie that continued for years. after i started reading about the church committee because of dick cheney's constant carping about it and i decided eventually it was something that i really wanted to write a book about, the church committee i think is probably the most important congressional investigation in modern american history. it was a watershed moment in the history of the cia and the fbi and the nsa. anybody who worked at those organ

here is the new york times, fed ends string of raising rates. policymakers predicted they might need to raise rates two more times this year as inflation, while moderating, remains stubborn. and then from the money section of usa today, fed holds off on rate hikes but indicates more to come. by next year the central bank expects to cut rates to 4.6% amid a weak economy and lower inflation. two more increases, according to the papers, but by next year the central bank expected to cut rates to 4.6%. you may have heard the fed chair say they still all have the goal on the board of achieving that 2% inflation rate. from the washington post this morning, fed leaves rates unchanged, signaling new phase in its fight against inflation. they say according to lindsay owens, executive director of the groundwork collaborative, urged the fed to stop raising altogether last year and raise alarms about the potential hit to the job market if the fed did not back off. owens said it was a good sign the fed did not raise further this week but she cautioned there we

and i can talk about why in that era the "new york times" allow this to even happen. it was kind of a miracle because history is not really news but they thought the online "new york times" was so insignificant they didn't care what went in there. so they let us put a lot of civil war history, now the online "new york times" is everything, and the printed paper is getting pretty hard to even find it. so i put my 13 bloggy essays and got to the end and was exhausted, but i felt that something important has happened to me that i loved this experience. i got a little bit away from my more academic way of thinking, and that was a good feeling, not a bad feeling. i let it stiff the way we do at a finally proposed it as a book topic, and i was lucky that a publishing house in new york said yes, and that was the beginning of my journey, which was quite a journey. it took about nine years for me to write this book. and it's still a little embarrassed by how long it took but i did a ton of research. >> well, it was worth it in the end, thank you. and you mention it can be diff

questions about the entire episode still far outweigh answers, including one raised by new york times reporting that a senior russian general had advance knowledge of the plot. joining us now from moscow, cnn's matthew chance. so matthew, the new york times reporting that this russian general knew of precautions plans, what do we know about that and about him? >> general sir -- is his name. known as general armageddon, because he's got a ferocious reputation on the battlefield. he was the person responsible for overseeing russia's brutal campaign of bombing against civilians and rebels in syria. and for a brief time, he was brought in to be the ukrainian commander. earlier this year or last year. about overseeing the conflict there as well. he's got this ferocious reputation. in terms of the reports and the new york times that he was aware of yevgeny prigozhin's uprising, well, we don't have any confirmation of that. certainly the kremlin have been asked about that and they set on their conference call today that it's just speculation and rumor. so they're not particularly commenting

"new york times" reporting the top russian general knew, had knowledge, of yevgeny prigozhin's plans insurrection against russia's military leadership before it was put into action. that is really significant. the "times" cites u.s. officials briefed on american intelligence on this. that general is sergei surovikin, commanded russian troops in ukraine for a period of time and the day of prigozhin's march towards moscow, he's the one who posted this video to telegram urging the wagner leader to stand down and turn back. according to the "new york times" u.s. officials are trying to learn if surovikin may have helped prigozhin's rebellion. this raises so many questions over how much support prigozhin may have and had within russia's military leadership. the kremlin calls this speculation and rumors. that's a quote from them this morning. joining us the former secretary of defense mark esper. it's good to have you. this is a new name to many people waking up this morning. tell us about him and the significance of this reporting. >> sure. let's go back to the past weekend, right. so pri

at the same time "the new york times" is reporting a previously unknown federal grand jury in miami, florida, started hearing testimony in the classified documents case last month. and only a handful of witnesses have testified or scheduled to appear there. that includes one witness set to testify today. the paper is citing people familiar with the grand jury's workings. "the times" also reports the existence of two grand juries suggests prosecutors are considering bringing charges in both washington and florida. it's also possible that former president trump could be charged in one jurisdiction while other people involved in the case are charged in another. elsewhere donald trump's chief of staff has reportedly testified in the doj's investigations into the former president. sources are telling abc news mark meadows answered questions in both the probe into trump's handling of classified documents as well as in the investigation into his alleged efforts to stay in power after losing the 2020 election. meadows, of course, was with trump in the weeks leading up to the january 6th insu

the new york times also reports, giuliani giuliani is leading with his counsel last week is a proper meeting which is often a priest or precursor to an agreement with prosecutors. here is former prosecutor harry lippman described. it >> he's gotten in with a proffer, which means he has given information but under circumstances where they won't hold it against him they will just evaluate whether they wanted him. watch him for what? give him immunity or an easy deal and then, what he gives an exchange must be information about donald trump. he is trying to cut a deal, and he knows the time is very short. now if giuliani is looking to cut a deal, and that is what is indicated by their work or the reporting we have a new york times, it seems as though he is naming names. one source familiar says giuliani was -- the role john eastman played in the fake electors plot, which indicates they're trying to pierce the initial wrinkle of trump's coup. interestingly it looks like the scope of the investigation might be wider than just the electors scheme. to the any was also after sydney powell, o

and you can see a document that is classified and it almost looks like a "new york times" article.t doesn't look that different, and you indeed you might have read much of it in "the new york times" but the way it's put or presented may reveal a source, may reveal a method and jeopardize lives in the field if that document comes out or falls into theou wrong hands. and so that's why you have such a robust prophylactic set of rules. and here in this criminal trial trump will trymi presumably a grain nail strategy, that's a strategy of saying, look, you're saying there's ang classified document i mishandle, you've got to show it in open court. and our intelligence community is worried about that, so there's a t long compromise in dialogue between the justice department and the intelligence community in any sort of criminal trial. one thing that happens sometimes you substitute under the classified information procedures act a sensitive document for something that is less sensitive or that redacts the information in one way or another. those are things you really want someone with exp

old graves to make room for gloomy details of ukrainian realities from the material of the new york times , whose employees cited a working day. at the largest cemetery in lviv watching the procession. funeral of ukrainian militants. american journalists conclude that local authorities are struggling to cope with the flow of coffins coming from the front line. so the local authorities have already moved to very drastic measures, namely, they decided to release the burial place from the first world war, as the new york times reports, the exhumation of nameless soldiers has already read the cynical logics of lvov officials more than a hundred years old, the dead must give way to their graves to the new ones. and although the kyiv regimes. officially, nothing is said about the losses of the apu, even reports from one cemetery are enough to evaluate. with what speed the ukrainian military meat grinder is spinning, and the gravediggers in the same lviv are directly declaring in the near future. they are preparing for the influx of new bodies. and what other signs testify to the true value of p

luke broadwater is here, pulitzer prize-winning congressional reporter for the new york times.ein, a political reporter for the atlantic atlanta journal-constitution. and former u.s. attorney joyce vance, she spent 25 years as a federal prosecutor. joyce, i'm starting with you. how big of a deal is this, that rudy giuliani agreed to a voluntary interview? we have no idea what he said, but the fact that he was willing to sit down. >> yes, so, it could be a big deal. the reality is we don't know. but if giuliani does make a decision to cooperate with prosecutors, if he tells them the truth, if that truth adds to their body of evidence, not only just against the former president, it could be that he also has testimony that he can give, that helps prosecutors build a case against, for instance, some of the lawyers who were surrounding trump during the perpetuation of the big lie. so there's a lot of different sorts of potential cooperation that could help move the government's case forward here. >> jog our memory, joyce, why is rudy, specifically, such a key witness in this investi

khosrow, the news that has been passed, and now that the american media , the new york times, has beenthe media for a few days, and now, along with other western american media, this is how their approach is. that prompts conversation they have talks with iran and now it is being published. the question is, what happened to america and the man who was talking until a few months ago and said that there is no reason to talk , there is no need to talk to iran, but now they are changing, encouraging in the media. hi, what happened to the talks with iran during this period, as you and the honorable guests are aware, iran was never opposed to the termination of the negotiations, which started about two years ago, in different eras with limited interruptions, and after the ukraine crisis with a kind of serious political change in europe, russia, china and the united states the current page of the jcpoa is in a state of ambiguity, the jcpoa is here, these sets of five plus one are not in the nuclear space. iran was forced to not adhere to the commitments it had made in the form of the addition

the new york times is reporting tonight, that one of the voices you will hear on the two minute audio recording is trump staffer-less harrington, the times is also reporting that marco martinez another trump staffer that was president for the president you are about to hear. also present, the ghostwriter and publisher of mark meadows fake memoir, serving as donald trump's fourth and final white house chief of staff. as you listen once again with donald trump's newest lines of defense in mind, to the two minute audio recording, listen for the bravado. listen for the possibility that he is just lying about the papers that he is playing with, and not showing to the people he is speaking to. when donald trump says they presented me this, this is off the record, but they presented me this. think about what this could be. building plans? when donald trump says, it is like highly confidential, and everyone laughs and he says this is secret information. what are those people looking at one donald trump says this is secret information? building plans? when you hear donald trump say he said he

well, let's get back to the new york times journalist, thomas gibson nave, having received. of criticism from the ukrainian curators for cluster munitions tom became, much more accommodating and at the same time accurate in the new article, he touched on non-nazi symbols of the units of the armed forces, nazi symbols on the ukrainian front line bring difficult questions of history to the fore. so uncomplicated is the name of the article and it would seem. did the western partners finally find the nazis in ukraine and less than a year has passed. a no, the use of nazi logo patches by the troops. it can kindle russian propaganda and spread the image that the west has tried to ignore for half a century, the author writes. that is, as if there is fascism in ukraine well, as it were, it does not exist. but it would be better to really remove the dubious symbolism on the image, not fallow, they say it has a bad effect. in general , the journalist corrected himself. thomas gibson again became one of the strangers met about how the united states saw the ukrainian nazis sergey shoigu

new york city experienced its worst air quality on record. one timethe afternoon air quality was considered hazardous, 100 million people were warned the air had become unhealthy. of course the white house is trying to blame climate change for record wildfires in canada and the smoke as a result. it was the "wall street journal" editorial row, government land management policies to prevent wildfires from spinning out of control which is prescribed burns would reduce cot emissions more than offshore wind or electric vehicle mandates. this doesn't fit with the climate left book of revelation. todd pyro is here. once again, the left is ignoring what could be the main cause forestry mismanagement because it doesn't fit into the scheme. >> "wall street journal" is spot on in our ad speaking to my friends in the logging industry, filling a movement in the u.s. and canada to not because we need the trees to last in perpetuity, that's the actual complete and proper approach because you have old dry wood that burns and you have what we have now so we need to g

the new york times is reporting, former president donald j trump was gathered with his core, politicalice near his poolside cottage at his club in bedminster, new york jersey. when his phone rang around seven pm on thursday, on the line, according to two people with knowledge of the call, was one of his lawyers. informing him he had been indicted. for the second time in less than three months. at 7:21 pm, donald trump began drafting and then sending a three port statement. on his social media, truth social, but soon interrupted the night time news shows and. took over in effect are broadcasting tonight on this network. where back with bradley moss, and andrew weissmann. andrew, this, the scene will be in the movie. the many movies. and the books to come about this. that seven pm in new jersey. when donald trump is told, not just that he has been indicted for the second time in three months, but he is the first, former president in history to be facing federal charges and presumably in that quote call, he was told it is a seven count indictment? >> yes, that would be typical. the way th

. >> a day or so later, at the new york times, an editor named warren hogue received a letter in theail. >> someone sent a warning letter to the new york times, that claimed to be from an anarchist group calling itself fc. >> the letter said, "they call us the unabomber, and we wanted to let you know that we're back, and we're going to begin a campaign of terrorism again." >> the attorney general, janet reno, said, "enough is enough. we have been chasing this man for 14 years." >> "we need to stop this." she came to the director of the fbi, louis freeh, and said, "i want a real task force." louis freeh said, "fine." >> until now, the investigations had been piecemeal all around the country, where the different attacks had taken place. >> the task force had to go back to the beginning, to look through a new lens. a 1979 airplane bomb gave the fbi the first clue that they may have a serial bomber on their hands. >> an american airlines 727, with 80 persons aboard, landed safely today, at washington's dulles international airport, after a small bomb exploded in a mail pouch in the cargo

the new york times, their front page is full of this as well. chump put u.s. at risk, indictment says, is the banner headline. some of the articles include evidence the president's actions were more overt than known, and case lands in hands of judge who earlier ruled for trump. we believe a -- we will read that later. and the wall street journal this morning. trump indictment unsealed, and there is a picture of a bathroom at mar-a-lago where a lot of the boxes are stored. this is from the department of justice. campaign trail runs through courts is the side article. and the washington post this morning. indictment paint scheme to keep files. they have chosen to highlight article three, or charge number three. "the classified documents chum stored including information regarding defense and weapons capabilities of both u.s. and foreign countries, united states nuclear programs, potential vulnerabilities of the u.s. and its allies to military attack, and plans for possible retaliation in response to a foreign attack." three side articles in the washington post.

as "the new york times" noted last month, mr. durham delivered a report that scolded the fbi but failed to live up to the expectations of supporters of donald j. trump, that he would uncover a politically motivated deep state conspiracy. he charged no high level fbi or intelligence official with a crime, and durham also acknowledged in a footnote that hillary clinton's 2016 presidential campaign did nothing prosecutable either. durham will speak in a closed door hearing before the house intelligence committee today and then in a public hearing before the house judiciary committee tomorrow. one imagines that will be a bit of a circus. joining us now congressional reporter for the hill. great to see you this morning. let's talk durham to start. what should we expect before his testimony before lawmakers this week? >> jonathan, you laid it out perfectly. this was a highly anticipated report from john durham after a four-year investigation. and now we're going to see durham testify before congress. as you mention today is the house i
