President ial field grows. How are they pitching themselves to defeat trump . I see myself as the ant dote. Cast ro will be here. Hello im jake tapper. The state of our union is open at least for now. The u. S. Government is back up and running after five weeks that left hundreds of thousands of americans without pay and agencies starved for resources. On friday President Trump gave in announcing he would give a temporary spending bill without any funding for the border wall. The move was a win the deal was the same what the Senate Passed in december before the president forced the shut down. Lawmakers have three week to make a deal before the government runs out of funding again. His a member of the Senate Intelligence committee. The president did not get any wall funding in this short term deal. S p says the economy lost billions of dollars. Was this strategy by President Trump with republicans in the house and senate going along, was it a huge mistake . I dont think Social Security a good leverage. There has been two shut downs since the time i have been there. The aggressor in niert one was the bin r winner. It is a fraction of what democrats have voted for in the past. I believe he is for people who have been here. All of that is being held up by inability to get agreement on Border Security which the President Campaign pd on. I hope people will separate the tactics from the policy. I think it is reasonable and solid. As you know, the democrats voting for more money in Border Security in the past especially in 2013 the Immigration Reform bill you pushed was in exchange for a lot of other things you see theres an opportunity here to get something done. Where does that optimism come from . We shouldnt be trading Border Security for anything. He already expressed the willingness on that. How much certainty they are willing to provide people under daca and people that have been here far long time and not criminals. We want to protect our borders in a way thats effective. In part from the fact fa we should protect our borders is the fact that it opens the door to doing much more on other issues. Finally im beginning to solve this issue of immigration that no one has done anything about it. But snard and i dont want to spend the wholer into vourks you know the whole reason they are in this unsettled and insecure status is because of President Trump taking away the protections that previously existed for them. Crisis have long ago passed. At this point the reason people like me want to see it extended and provide permanency for people from on dur is they have been here a long time. They have children that are deployed. The deeper roots people have in our country the more sense to allow them to stay. He has said he is willing to extend it and provide permanency. But he has to get his First Priority done. Its key that unlocks the door to everything else. I hope tactics aside we all agree Border Security is important for america and creates opportunity to do more on other issues. Sounds like the tactic was a bad one you think. Lets turn to roger stone. We know senior members were in contact with stone talking about how to get information stolen by russian hackers, information that would be damaging to t mem Trump Campaign met with a lawyer and that Campaign ChairmanPaul Manafort to somebody that has ties to russian military. That is according to the fbi. Based on what we know publicly. Muellers probe should be allow today reach the full conclusion abdomen we should all reserve judgment until the entire thing has been presented and we can analyze it in its entirety. We are looking at a lot of the same things not from a criminal justice perspective but from Counter Intelligence perspective. It is what i hope and expect will be bipartisan. I think if i continue to believe its a mistake to make these pronouncements before we have it all before us. Your opinion will be more valid if you watd for all of the information to be out there. Lets turn to the turmoil in venezuela. Of. It says trumps efforts to install a far right opposition will further destabilize the region. Whats your response to the congresswoman . It is not a u. S. Backed anything. I didnt see any american americans in the streets. Hundreds of thousands took to the streets on the 23rd. It is the National Assembly which was lawfully elected. By the way, constitution put in place by chavez, they followed the constitution that said the election is invalid sorry, the swearing in is invalid. When thats vacancy, the president becomes the interrum president. In the next 30 to 45 days he has to call for new elections. That was all their law. They follow that. The u. S. Simply supported the institutions along with 16 countries in the region. This is canada and brazil, etcetera. This is not a u. S. Sponsored anything. This is us supporting the people of venezuela who want it followed. People choose to ignore it, thats silly. I know no decisions are being made to avoid any sort of but you have said all options should be on the Table Including u. S. Military force if maduro doesnt back down. How would you explain to the families of Service Members why it is worth risking their lives to go venezuela. It. It is so we can support that new democratic government. Thats what im calling for. The United States always retain it is right, always. Any where in the world to prektd its national security. So im not going to justify military intervention. We always have in cases where it is threatened. Why we should care about venezuela is the topic. They allow Drug Trafficking network to flood our country. They have destabilizing the entire region. Over a million and a half to 2 million in columbia. It is a regional catastrophe. So it is in our National Interest to care about whats happening there it is always in our interest for those putting our lives on the line for democracy. Thank you so much for your time. Thanks for having me.

It isnt. Its the most wonderful life on earth. Welcome back. Roger stone was arrested on friday and charged with lying under oath, obstruction and witness tampering. According to the indictment from the Mueller Investigation stone saw information from wikileaks while in coordination of senior members of the Trump Campaign. It says he directed person number one to get information from wikileaks about the plans to the stolen emails came from a russian state hacker. On friday person number one revealed his identity. That is corsi. He declared that his lawyer be present as well. Thanks for joining us. I want to ask you, you say that the information is accurate. He is facing serious consequences. He will plead not guilty. What do you think his motivation is for not telling the truth . I cant really say what his mote vagts is. I will tell what mine is and what is in the indictment about me is accurate. I will affirm that if asked to in kour. That means youre willing to steph against roger stone. You will affirm that whats in the indictment is correct. Ill be happy to testify. I will tell the truth to the best of my ability. That is hard given the amount of information and the fact that i have said from the beginning im not a human tape recorder. You cant push a button and i cant recall precisely in detail conversations, emails, vents from 2016. I will do my best to tell the truth without calculation of whom it benefits or whom it detracts. One of the biggest outstanding questions from this indictment comes from a line that says a senior Trump Campaign official was directed to contact stone to find out about any additional wikileaks. Do you know who directed that senior Campaign Official . Do you know who either of these individuals are . I really dont. I know what roger told me. I dont recall that roger ever said that he was under instructions from anyone in the campaign to find out about what wikileaks had about july 22nd, 2016. I do agree that roger wanted me to find out. I never had any contact directly or indirectly. So it was really speculation on my part. According to the indictment stone emailed you asking you to get the pending wikileaks emails. You replied to roger stone saying word is friend and embassy plans to be very damaging and would not to start suggesting very bad. Neater he or she, i setting stage for foundation debacle. They released information about the clinton foundation. Prosecutors do not believe you con j conjured this information. This was the subject of the last 20 hours of my 40 hour voluntary interviews with special counselor. We went through i made an honest effort go through everybody i was in communication with in 2016. I cant find anyone. Im concluding my recollection is correct. I did just connect to dots and figure it out on my own. Its hard to accept. People will have a hard time understanding that. Throughout my life i have been having this ability deductively to really understand situations and remarkably often im correct. You did forward stones emails asking to associate in the United Kingdom who we identified publicly. As i point out i dont believe that ever contacted and i dont recall any conversations in which he told me about it. While i did forward emails to him from roger stone saying go see i never suspected he would do it or he did do it. That did not influence my conclusions in july and august that essentially he had the emails. You write that the mueller team was very frustrated. I can understand why in talking to you right now because you leave wiggle room that maybe you were talking to somebody you just dont remember it. You write in the book although i may have had a source i could not remember a source. Thats very frustrating. I think most people would remember if they had a source. I made every effort. They would not give me my phone records. They would have them. The fbi went and interviewed almost everyone that showed up in my 2016 con vary sagss, phone calls, set set that and i cant find anyone that provided me direct or indirect information. So just one other thing. In your book you say roger stone contacted you before the release of that access Hollywood Tape and asked you to try to get word, release the emails to change a new cycle. You write i believe i told the Daily News TeamConference Call that the billy bush team was come k. Im sure i said we should pass the alert to assange. They did release the emails. My. My recollection shows i had three conversations with roger stone that day, october 7th or 8th. That is the day wikileaks released the first of the pode strks esta emails. Im not disputing what rogers recollection is. I can only tell you what my recollection is. I doubt anything was able to do that. As we look through that day that was a very very busy day for me. I was working with a lot different meetings. I cant find anyone that had direct contact with assange. We are ruping out of time. Last question. You emailed roger stone to say you quote should be given credit according to an email that the prosecutors have. Why would you say that if you dont think you deserved credit for the timing of the wikileaks . I dont think it was specifically that that i was referring to. It turned out that i was right. That was deduction as best i can remember. I was putting together the dots. I felt lieb it should have been valuable information just that i figured it out. Not that i had communications with wikileaks. I believe he worked with him because roger i dont think ever really believed. I dont recall roger thinking if i had a contact with wikileaks i think he would have leapfrogged me and taken the contact himself. Thanks for answering our questions today. We appreciate it. Larry, thanks to you as well. Could a candidate in texas be the right one . Castro will be here in moments. I never thought id say this but i found bladder leak underwear thats actually pretty.

He was a young politician whose speech to the Democratic National convention that maybe he would run for president some day. Im not talking about a young state senator. Im talking about former san antonio mayor and hud secretary. It turns out he is running for president now for 2020. Democratic president joins me now. Thanks for joining us. For weeks now the Democratic Party said President Trump needed to open the government and reopen the government in order to then allow negotiations on Border Security. The government is now open. You said on friday that everybody should work to keep the government open. How far do you think democrats should go to be willing to give trump some money for Border Security including money far fence or a wall as part of negotiations . They willing to investigate on additional funds for Border Security. They did that in the legislation that they passed earlier this month. I think the difference here is the focus. We have 1,994 miles of southern border. They have some sort of barrier structure fensing usually. There are better ways we can ensure we have a border that is completely secure. In many ways or border is more secure today than ever. There are investments we can make in in addition personnel at the border in technology so that we can better monitor whats coming through ports of entry and we can wet secure the ports of entry. She laid out whether they are willing to negotiation. My hope is we will not get back into this situation where you have 800,000 families that dont get a paycheck. Right. Pelosi said that the wall was quote immoral. There is wall barrier fencing, are they immoral . I dont think it represents the best of what america stands for. I believe if we were to build the kind of wall donald trump is talking about and admittedly thats hard to figure out. Some days he says its a beautiful big concrete wall and other days he says its steel slats then Something Else but i believe fundamentally that if bewere to build that wall that it would change the notion of america from the statue of liberty that stands for freedom and welcomes imgranlts to a country that literally walls itself off. It is how others see us and have an impact on who we are. It is not a path we want to go down. I agree to do so would be immoral. If there are miles of barrier fencing wall why would adding the notion anymore . We already have that. Why would it change who we are . I would say two things, number one that 654 miles was built some time ago. It was built out when the technology was not what it is today. In other words thats an old style of doing things. We have a more effective way without that kind of barrier to do it. The other argument that people have made is that we addressed where you might argue that okay. You need a physical structure or physical barrier. That was addressed. 654 miles. Thats not the case. Lets move onto your president ial cam pachblt you laid out a very ambitious and so its medicare for all. Youll need to raise revenue to fund some of these priorities. If you were elected president would you undo the republican tax cut law and raise it back up to 35 . I absolutely would. Im doing the tax cuts that benefitted the super wealthy and benefits corporations there is no reason anybody should go without health care. Im under no illusion it will be easy. I look forward to putting forth a plan on how we would pay for that. I think americans deserve to know how they are going to do that even though i will point out as yall have seen that donald trump went through an entire president ial cycle not only not releasing his tax returns but not telling the American People what his plans were. I think we need to do better than that. During the course of this campaign we will. You said earlier this month that you want top earners to pay more in taxes. You pointed to the top marginal tax rate. It used to be 94 . It is not 94 of the income tax. It is the top. Thank you for pointing that out. You have to point that out. People think if somebody is making 5 million suddenly all of their income is taxed. Thats not true. Thats a marginal tax rate. Would you support raising it to the top marginal tax rate to that level of more than 90 . I think it was very telling that after he mentioned that the marginal tax rate could be as high as 70 because it used to be. If you think about it donald trump says he wants to make America Great again. I dont believe in going backwards. If you did go backwards you would go into a time when the marginal tax rate was higher. They did a poll. 45 said they believe that kind of tax rate was a good idea. So i believe that we should increase it. Where it goes would be a subject of negotiation. I want to ask you about the former starbucks ceo who says this weekend he seriously is exploring a selffunded independent bid. He told 60 minutes he thinks both parties are involved in revenge politics. Do you have any concerns that a very wealthy independent with a message could play spoiler in 2020 . Well, yeah. I would say that i have a tremendous respect for howard. I had an opportunity to visit with him. He has done impressive things. I do share that concern. I have a concern and provide donald trump with his best hope of getting reelected. Just the other day there was a fairly comprehensive poll taken that showed essentially right now that there is a ceiling of 41 or 42 in terms of support for him. No matter who they polled against him. If they stay the same is essentially to get somebody else, a third party to the votes. We need new leadership. I would suggest to mr. Schultz to think about thing intie nega impact it might make. Yes, i agree there are things that republicans and democrats need to approve upon. There is a real difference between any of the folks that said they want to run on the democratic side and donald trump. Thats become so clear. Its not all the same thing. All right. Hopefully well have you back again some time to talk more about the issues. Thanks for joining us today. Thank you. President trump says he didnt cave. Our panel will be here next. Theres brushing. And theres oralb power brushing. Oralb just cleans better. Even my hygienist said going electric could lead to way cleaner teeth. And unlike sonicare, oralb is the First Electric toothbrush brand accepted by the ada. Oralb. Brush like a pro. Our unity is our power and that is what maybe the president under estimated. Congressional democrats taking after the president ended the Government Shutdown for the next three weeks. Is it true . Is it fair to say that trump caved and pelosi won . I think nancy pelosi did win. I dont know that we will see that he actually ends up caving. Im sure he would like to do an emergency order and get his wall. He under estimated her and she proved that a mom snows hknows hand wall twoyearold brat. This is, as always, they overblow anything. Donald trump did what media and everyone else was asking to do. Give us an opportunity to negotiate and put people back to work. Everybody criticized donald trump and they criticized him for saying okay. Ill take your deal. Well give you a three week period of time. Now the burden is on you to come forward. When donald trump sat in that meeting and said i will give you everything you want if youll give me how much wall funding will you give me . He said not a penny. Its up to pelosi to say ill meet you somewhere. If her answer is no money for wall i dont care how much you give us, which is what she told the president , then i think we are going to be either back with another shut down or more likely an emergency declaration. If the president started all of this in the first place we wouldnt be here if we hadnt done this. The speaker showed herself more than capable of President Trump. It is not just about that. It should be about the 800,000 workers, federal employees and contract workers who lost pay while people are playing. Am i glad for our neighbors, our friends, our families so they can pay their bills . Absolutely. Would it be worth it for democrats to give the president some money for a wall, fence, ju whatever you want to call it and give some permanent protection for dreamers etcetera . Yes. Permanent is the keyword. The president made an offer during a shutdown. Ill give temporary protection if you give mae permanent wall. No. Its propostrous. It is hard do. He united progressives. He betrayed conservatives. Thats very hard in america to do all three at the same time. Dont forget he also empowered nancy pelosi a few months ago. Now she is pretty strong. This is why the republicans demonized her. It is foolish democrats criticized her. President trump tweeted this move was no way a concession but a lot of people on the far right, a lot of super conservatives dont see it that way. Take a listen. This president said it was going to be conditional Border Security building that wall and he just reversed himself. Thats a victory. It will be perceived as such on every Television Monitor and screen in the country. To deny it is to try to escape from reality. It is overreaction. The reality is we have three weeks. The bill is in conference. Now they can sit down and strike a deal if they want to strike a deal. I dont think its a concession what so ever. Its not a cave. Its okay. Ill accept your terms as you want it in order for you to get a deal. Lets see whether you can get a deal. I think one of the problems in the deal, yes. It may include the temporary protective status. What its not going to deal with is the one legitimate crisis at the border. That is the families and unaccompanied children that are there. I want to change the sub jektd to the fact that he is talking about running for president and selffunded campaign, potential spoiler for democrats. You heard him basically plead not to run. Are you worried about such a race . Im worried about the selff selffunding you have. It is to buy a seat. You see it happening all of the time whether people are getting money from mega donors. Both Political Parties have to go out there and debate with the American People. To say somebody cant run because it puts the Democratic Party to me is absolute nonsense. The Democratic Party needs to earn those votes. Im not saying he cant run. Im saying he shouldnt. It is simple. 18 years ago he called me up. I went and had lunch with him. He said i will get 5 or 7 and well still have enough votes to win. It doesnt work. If you run bush wins. If you run trump wins. This is a guy who was salivating that ross be no. I never supported but he well so theres your point. Youre saying that schultz would take from the left and just from the democrats. Im not sure thats true anymore than if we were concerned that it was going to take from george bush. There were alienations on both sides. The American People need to understand this. Mathematically they will have a challenge. It is about the democracy. Yes. Earn the vote and dont be afraid or have a conversation. To align to totally just the republican primary is where i would like it to run. Send this where it should count. He shouldnt be able to buy. This enlie it is problem that they and harris will formally announce her candidacy that will embrace the past and also apologizing for some of it. She will say if i have the honor of being a president i will tell you im not perfect but i will always have moral clarity and i will lead with integrity and tell the truth. My whole life i had only one client, the people. She has been under fire for being the former prosecutor. What do you make of her and what do you make of how much that will hurt her potentially in the primary . What you just read is the right tone to take. Everybody can say god knows im not perfect. Nobody is perfect. In terms of the last 10 to 15 years of really reinvigorating what happens has always been there. The light has been shined on it for. All right. President trump says he is a master deal maker. What happened when he tried to negotiation with pelosi . Thats the subject coming up next. These techs in a lab. This builder in a hardhat.

In a letter he wrote this week President Trump all but dared her to uninvite him in the house chamber. Pelosi took the dare and uninvited him. Pelosi has made it very clear how she sees President Trump throughout this confrontation. For his part the president also made clear how he pictures the most powerful woman in america. The super left democrats, the radical democrats, whats going on in that party is shocking. Had been thinking of alternate sites of the speech. He could have delivered his speech trying to decline it. We dont use the wall necessarily but it has to be Something Special to do the job. Steel slats. Or instead of looking out a sea of supporters, an ocean of hats. They all love me.
