Transcripts For MSNBC Way Too Early With Jonathan Lemire 20240707

Documents at his country club. It comes as trumps legal team picks up a significant win in court. And in uvalde, texas, there is a mix of anxiety and fear for students and staff today as they start a new school year. For some parents, promises of increased security arent enough to send their kids back to class. Good morning. And welcome to Way Too Early. On this tuesday, september 6th. Im jonathan lemire. Thanks for starting your day with us. A riveting new twist this morning, following the fbi search of former president Donald Trumps maralago home in florida. A federal judge has approved a request from trumps attorneys for a Special Master to review the material seized during last months search. Temporarily blocking parts of the justice departments investigation. U. S. District judge cannon, a trump appointee, stated in her ruling yesterday, that the Special Master should be able to review the seized documents to address questions of attorneyclient privilege, and to litigate claims of Executive Privilege. Judge cannon writing in part, in addition to being deprived of potentially significant personal documents, which alone creates a real harm, plaintiff faces an unquantifiable potential harm by way of improper disclosure of Sensitive Information to the public. Prior to the ruling, the d. O. J. Argued against a Special Master. Saying it would unnecessarily and significantly harm important governmental interests including National Security interests. Judge cannon rejected the justice departments arguments that trumps Special Master was file today late and it was frivolous and trump had no right to review, because he didnt own the documents in question that were seized. A d. O. J. Spokesman released this statement. The United States is examining the opinion and will consider appropriate next steps in the ongoing litigation. At the same time, judge cannon allowed a National Security review of the records to continue, but temporarily blocked the government from reviewing and using them for its quote investigative purposes. So the order essentially puts a pause on the d. O. J. s investigation until the Special Masters rv has finished. No word yet on who the Special Master will be but judge cannon will be the one to make that appointment. She ordered the d. O. J. And trumps lawyers to send her a list by friday of potential candidates for the Special Master position, and suggestions for what powers the position would hold. Also yesterday, judge cannon did not immediately grant trumps request to get back more of his property more quickly. The former president did not respond directly to the news that his request for a special mast her been granted. But did discuss the case in several posts on his fledgling social media platform yesterday. Writing in part, this, remember, it takes courage and guts to fight a totally corrupt department of justice, and the fbi. They are being pushed to do the wrong things by many sinister and evil outside sources. Trump followed up that post by another one suggesting that the fbi and the investigation has something to do with the last president ial election. Im quoting here one last time. Now that the fbi and the d. O. J. Have been caught in a massive and determinative election rigging scam, are they going to change the results of the 2020 president ial election . They should. Okay. Joining us now, is msnbc legal analyst danny cevallos. Were always pleased when you get up early to start your day with us this morning. Lets start with this ruling by the judge, there were some real howlings of outrage by many in the Legal Community about, this and she may have overstepped her purview by this appointment. What was your take . Im surprised for three reasons. I thought she would deny the request, first, because trumps team got off to a bad start with their filings shall and their requests, and in addition, i thought the Standing Argument by the d. O. J. Was strong, basically that hey, trump is not the president anymore, these arent his documents, so this isnt even any of his business anyway and the judge dispensed with that argument and the trump team cited prior cases involving searches of attorneys offices and that is a very unique place. Our offices are sort of a clearinghouse, a collect of different clients privileged documents so for those reasons i thought the judge would deny. It but im frustrated with the judges order for this reason. Her discussion of the concerns about the governments taking which is starved by other members of the government, other u. S. Attorneys is all well and good, but that is not the way it works for regular folks who youve never heard of. This is special treatment for trump. Nowhere else could a regular guy with a regular Criminal Defense Attorney go in to court and say, hey, you know, someone executed a Search Warrant on my home, i would like a Special Master to go through all of these documents, it just doesnt happen. And thats evidence by the fact that both sides struggled to find cases that stood for this proposition where this had happened before, because it just doesnt happen very often. It happens in high profile cases. Not in regular cases involving regular citizens. And what do you make of her decision on the Executive Privilege part of this, when hes no longer that was a weaker argument, because after all, it is the Executive Branch seeking documents from a former head of the Executive Branch. So if anyone has a stronger Executive Privilege argument, its the now existing Executive Branch headed by a new executive, which is joe biden, so i thought that argument was strong for the government, and judge rather dispensed with it pretty quickly. The d. O. J. Has an ability to appeal, is that correct . Do we suspect that they will . And just assume they do, what sort of time line are we now looking at here . This is all really going to slow down. Here is what is interesting. Had this gone the other way you know the trump team would appeal. That is their signature move. Appeal everything up to the supreme court. But im not so sure that d. O. J. Will automatically appeal this. Number one, they dont want delay, and thats something an appeal could do. And number two, im not so sure d. O. J. Cared that much to begin with. Yes, this will delay their investigation, but ultimately, a Special Master, they reviewed all of the documents, and their team has reviewed all of the documents, dont tell me that the government hasnt reviewed the team, because the team is the government, it is just a walled off area of the government, so theyve gotten most of what they asked for, they did oppose this motion, but i dont believe in the end it really hurts the d. O. J. That much, except with this caveat that we are approaching an election, and this is a very unique situation and the d. O. J. Obviously has to be aware of their informal 60 day rule not to mess up an election with an indictment. And lastly, very briefly, how much of a delay now could we see . What is the time line for this investigation Going Forward . Its so hard to say. In federal court, things generally move pretty quickly but the parties still have to submit a proposed Special Master, and the judge has to look at those, appoint them, and remember, a special mast ser just one person, its not like the governments k team of a dozen different people. And even with assistants that persons eyes has to see every document, at least in theory. We appreciate the insight. Msnbc legal analyst danny cevallos. Thank you as always. One of the reasons that the former president has given for keeping classified documents at maralago is that they were bound for a future president ial library. Toward the end of trumps tenure, looking for a potential library in home and some said put the library in greenland and the president talked about buying. The president ial advise es say it is usually a little more than an afterthought for trump and it would signal his career in politics is dead. And those who spoke about a Library Earlier today saying he didnt seem to be terribly interested. He is more interested in being president again. Another confidante added this, president ial libraries are for expresident s. He is our next president. And also, saying trump should have given the records back and then asked for a loan of documents he wanted to exhibit as all past president s have done. Republican senator marco rubio is downplaying the fbi search. Listen to what he said in an interview with nbcs affiliate in miami on sunday. This is really at its core a Storage Argument that theyre making, right . Theyre arguing there are documents there, they dont deny they have access to the documents, they deny they were not properly stored. I dont think the fight over storage of documents is worthy of what theyve done. Compare that to what rubio said concerning Hillary Clintons handling of classified information, in july of 2016, he released a Statement Saying in part there is simply no excuse for Hillary Clintons decision to set up a homecooked email system which left sensitive and classified National Security information vulnerable to theft and exploitation by americas enemies. He added that Hillary Clintons actions have sent the worst message to the millions of hardworking federal employees who hold Security Clearances rand expected to go to Great Lengths to secure sensitive Government Information and abide by the rules. They dont take their ogees lightly. And we shouldnt expect any less of their leaders. So for you folks, it might be a little hypocritical. The war in ukraine, rush is buying millions of Artillery Shells and rockets from north korea for its ongoing invasion. Thats according to a newly declassified u. S. Intelligence report First Published by the times late yesterday. The u. S. Government officials tell the paper that russias decision to turn to north korea was a sign of its sanctions of Export Controls imposed by the u. S.

Public schools open for the First Time Since the may massacre that killed 19 students and two teachers. The students and staff who were were at Rob Elementary have been reassigned to three other campuses. After the district decided to demolish the school. Several parents had pulled their children from the district enrolling them in a private school. Dozens of others have opted for Virtual Learning to start the school year. It was a nobrainer. When he told me that he was scared, and he felt like he was not going to be protected by the police officers, he said that they werent going to be brave enough, i couldnt argue with him. The state says that there will be nearly three dozen troopers assigned to the uvalde campuses. However, parents told the Associated Press that the extra security doesnt give them comfort. Since there were more than 90 State Troopers on the scene during the attack. The a. P. Also reports that parts of the new fencing around the campuses is not there. One of the two men suspected in a Stabbing Spree that killed ten people has been found dead. Investigators say that Damian Sanderson and his brother miles stabbed 28 people in an Indigenous Community in saskatchewan On Sunday Killing at least ten and injuring 18 others. Yesterday police say they found damians body in a Grass Ry Area near a house they were searching, appearing that it does not appear his injuries were selfinflicted. Miles remains at large, as the massive manhunt continues. Investigators also say he may be injured and can try to seek medical help. Police have not determined a motive but say it appears that some victims were chosen at random, while others were specifically targeted.

President biden campaigned in two battleground states on labor day. Pennsylvania and wisconsin. His first stop, a Holiday Festival in milwaukee. An energized President Biden took the stage to highlight his recent legislative wins. He also continued to call out socalled maga republicans in congress, specifically one of the lawmakers he was there to campaign against, gop senator ron johnson. These maga republicans in congress are coming for your Social Security as well. And along comes ron johnson of wisconsin. Hes arguing that five years is too long to wait to salvage these programs people depend on and put medicare on the Chopping Block every year and treat it like every other appropriation. And let me remind you, you pay for your Social Security. Taken out of your paycheck since you were 18 years old and the same guy who said coming after the Affordable Care act again. This guy never stops. But guess what. I aint stopping, either. To this day, maga republicans in congress defend the mob that stormed the capitol, people died there. Senator johnson said it was a, by and large, a peaceful protest. Have you seen the videos what happened that day . Listen to the stories of the members of both parties of congress and the jeopardy they were put in . Cops attacked and assaulted. Speared with flag poles. Sprayed with mace. Stomped on and dragged, brutalized. Police lost their lives as a result of that day. And the maga republicans and the senior senators said it was a peaceful protest. Senator johnsons democratic challenger Mandela Barnes did not appear with the president yesterday. Saying he had other Labor Day Events to attend. Later today, the president made his third trip to pennsylvania in less than a week. Alongside the states democratic nominee for senator, john fetterman, biden touted his administrations accomplishments to a group of Union Workers just outside pittsburgh. He also looked to draw contrast between republicans and democrats, ahead of novembers midterms. Democracy is really at stake. You cant be a democracy when you support violence, when due like the outcome of the election. You cant call yourself a democracy when you dont in nfact count the votes of people who legitimately cast and count who you are, and you cant be a democracy and call yourself one, if you continue to do what they are doing. So folks, look, we have a choice, and trump and the maga republicans have their choice. We can choose to build a better american or we can continue to slide slide down this path to oblivion to where we dont want to go. And the president stopped at a table of desserts on his way out of the keystone state. Joining us now, cofounder of punch bowl news, anna palmer, she is an msnbc contributinger. Good morning. Thanks for being with us. The president of course has in recent days really tried to define this upcoming election as democrats who are getting things done, versus the maga republicans, who are dominating the gop. This rhetoric hasnt been totally consistent, he stepped away from it over the weekend a little bit saying not every republican of course would be a threat to the republic. But this is pretty extreme. And they seem to think its working. What do other democrats think . I think time will tell, right . I think there will be an an effort and a real frustration on some democrats that it is taking the president this long to go on the offensive, to attack trump and maga republicans, and you can see much more forceful President Joe Biden in the last several days. I think is probably going to continue. Were nine weeks from the election. This is going to be, the fact that democrats are trying to campaign for what theyve been able to do but also strike that contrast for independents, and the democrats who are not motivated to come out to vote in the midterms, whether its on abortion, whether its on a lot of other issues, the social safety net, as you heard in that clip, it is about trying to force republicans into this Extremist Box to give other voters a place for them in the broader democratic party. What do you make of the mixed results i guess you should say about other democrats trying to embrace the president . We know that john fetterman, who is making his return to the Campaign Trail after his stroke stood with President Biden yesterday and Mandela Barnes of wisconsin did not. How complicated is this dance for individual democrats to figure out just how close to keep biden . Weve done a bunch of reporting on, this talking to members of the key senate races, in particular, and i think it is a race by race decision, right . And basically, you can see the Democratic Campaign add saying in the senate, it will be based on whether they will be there or not or even other surrogates and obviously the president s popularity has been in the tank, and so some people and some of the swing districts, wisconsin, republican states, probably getting up alongside them is going to be helpful, is not going to be helpful but in pennsylvania a state where biden knows really well, where he is from, you can see fetterman wanting to em brace him. I think it is a state by state race. And in the midterm, this is something you see every two years in the first term of a president ial election. It is not just biden, it is a complicated Decision Matrix about whether or not it is helpful to have him come and be part of the race. I think it is probably fewer races than maybe the Biden Administration might want. And lastly, and briefly, the senate is back, return can from its summer recess today, what is on its to do list, or is this all just going to be shifting in Campaign Mode . Well, it is going to be a very busy september. We are teeing that up in this mornings punch bowl news, and newsletter, we have a Government Funding Package that is going to have to pass, in september, a lot of things are potentially on the docket. There one of the big things to watch,on than is samesex marriage, and how senator schumer decides to put that on to potentially the governments Funding Package which is the news that we will be breaking this morning, or do they need that as a separate package . Theres a couple other provisions. But this is going to be a lot of negotiations here because there is very little time for the congress to actually do much more before the election. So all of the things that were going to try to get jammed into that mustpass package. Well look forward to the punch bowl letter. Anna palmer, thank you as always. Still ahead we will shift to Business News and a positive sign on the futures board after a threeweek Losing Streak for the markets a rare sight indeed of green.

The Stock Futures in the green this morning. First time weve seen that in a while. The major averages had finished three straight weeks of losses. What do we expect today . Yes, good morning. Look, despite the u. S. Markets playing a bit of catchup after being closed yesterday for labor day, the futures are pointing to a mostly pov positive start to the trading day later today. Over in asia, shares were largely wiped out, wiped out the gains from today, so it kind of closes in the red, and investors are still cautious ahead of this weeks ecb meeting. Also watching out for the fallout from russias indefinite gas cut. Here in europe, markets have finished kind of mixed yesterday, with the fstse 100 being the only gainer. The u. K. Does have a new Prime Minister and liz truss is set to take over on Number 10 Downing Street and the market is fairly positive going into todays trading. A group of some of the worlds most powerful Oil Producers have agreed to cut Oil Production by 100,000 barrels a day. This comes after President Biden a couple of months ago went to saudi arabia asking for the exact opposite. What is happening here . Yes, so it is a bid of a weird one, right . It is a bit of a surprise. Particularly for Energy Analysts who had expected the oil group to keep things as they were. So production was set to remain unchanged last month, though, and we saw that they agreed to raise oil output, as you know, by that 100, same 100,000 barrels today, and that shows why they intended to be kind of a rejection almost of u. S. President joe bidens request for the group to keep pumping more oil into the market, in order to cool prices, and then help the global economy, as you know, with regard to saudi arabia. But it certainly isnt the case. An uptick of 2 for wti crude. Brent crude however mostly unchanged across the morning. And then lastly, some significant headlines here, the Drugstore Giant Cvs has agreed to buy Home Health Care provider signify for about 8 billion. On amazon what was a hotly contested takeover battle. What is the significance of this . The big story in the health sector, right . Signify, which is a massive part of the story, which does provide technology and analytics to help with inhome patient care, will be bought out by cvs health. It signifies a big change and a big move for cvs. And they will have to do this move, particularly out of necessity, because you have competitors, amazon and walgreens who have moved into the sector and provided heavy competition. For example in july, you saw amazon that it was acquiring primary care provider, one medical, 3. 9 billion. So that is a big deal for them. Signify is worth around 6. 7 billion after the shares of the company surged 45 in the last month. But they have only been listed for around 18 months so clearly some Massive Gains to be held there. Cnbcs arible, live from london, thanks for joining us. Still ahead on Way Too Early, we will stay across the pond for more on britains new Prime Minister and some of Boris Johnsons Farewell Speech coming up next.

Fisher Investments never at Fisher Investments. other Money Manager ok, then you probably sneak in some hidden and layered fees. Fisher Investments no.

Im like one of those Booster Rockets that has fulfilled its function and i will now be gently reentering the atmosphere and splashing down in visibly in some remote and obscure corner of the pacific. That was british Prime Minister Boris Johnson using an extended metaphor a few moments ago as he left 10 Downing Street for the last time. Today foreign secretary liz truss takes over as the new pm, she will meet with the queen at the royal familys estate in scotland where the ceremony will take place following johnsons former resignation. Boris johnson backed truss in a tweet yesterday. Claiming she has quote the right plan to tackle the Cost Of Living crisis, unite our party, and continue the great work of uniting and leveling up our country. Truss will be the u. K. s fourth conservative Prime Minister in six years. Joining us now, london correspondent for the washington post, karla adam. Good morning, thanks for being with us. First lets just start with how today is going to unfold. Please walk us through it. Yes, today is like Inauguration Day effectively, it is not called that here, the ceremony here is called kissing the hens. Just to be clear there is no actual kissing of the hens. There will be curtsying and bowing. And it started today, as you showed, with the clip of bois johnson, he gave a Farewell Switch as the outgoing Prime Minister and then the incoming Prime Minister, liz truss, both fly to scotland. And i think in just under two hours time, liz truss will become Prime Minister. They both meet with Queen Elizabeth ii, in a ceremony called kissing the hens. And Boris Johnson will bow, he will officially tender his resignation, he will have a little chitchat with the queen, and then he leaves, and then liz truss enters, she curtsies, and she is invited to form a new government, she also has a chitchat or an audience with the queen for about 30 minutes and its during that audience that she officially becomes Prime Minister. And what is also super interesting about today is that this is an historic first, that it is happening in scotland. Liz truss will be the queens 15th Prime Minister, and all previous Prime Ministers, all of the other 14 had all this Special Ceremony Take place at Buckingham Palace in london. So this is the first time that it is happening in scotland. So liz truss, conservative, comes to office, facing an extraordinary list of challenges. And moreso than the inflation, the Cost Of Living crisis there in the u. K. , walk us through what she faces, and what are some of our plans Going Forward . Yes, so she has a huge interest here, shes coming to power at a time of incredible economic and political upheaval in the u. K. She has a very complex issues that are facing her. I think for most britons, first and foremost, it is one thing, that that is the Cost Of Living. Cost of living crisis. People are alarmed by the Rising Energy bills, and they want the government to do something about that. Liz truss has pledged bold action, but she has you know, while shes been tough talking on that, shes been light on the details. There are rumors she will spell out more on thursday. Were waiting to see what she will do on Rising Energy bills. But its not just that. Theres general economic woes. Economists are saying the uk will tip into recession. Theres soaring inflation, threats and planned strikes and industrial action. Concerns with nhs waiting times. Foreign policy, i think after the Cost Of Living crisis, i think next up on the agenda that will dominate will be tensions with europe and the Northern Ireland protocol, with issues surrounding brexit. You have the ongoing war in ukraine. Theres questions with scottish independence. So theres a lot. I dont think it is an easy time to be a british Prime Minister. No, certainly not. She has pledged her support for the war in ukraine. Watch in the weeks ahead her relationship with President Biden who, shall we say, tolerated Boris Johnson.

Not every republican embraces that extreme ideology. But the extreme republicans in congress have chosen to go backwards, full of anger, violence, hate and division. But, together, we can and we must choose a different path forward. That was more of President Joe Biden during his Campaign Stop in milwaukee yesterday. Joining us to talk about it, White House Reporter for the washington post, typetyler pag. Morning, great to see you again. Thats the message democrats have honed on. Theyre the party that gets things done. Republicans, a lot of them, are these maga extremists, out of step with much of the country. What is the white houses plan to carry that message in the next two months until the midterms . Yeah, i think the white house is hoping to have President Biden out on the Campaign Trail, selling that aggressive message, and really driving hard at this contrast you just laid out between democrats and republicans. I think democrats are feeling confident as they head into the midterms for two main reasons. One, they have a numerous legislative successes to run on that they passed over the summer. Two, they feel they can drive this contrast with republicans and hone in on what President Biden was saying there, dubbing a lot of rank and file republicans as these maga republicans, extreme republicans, out of touch with the american people. Ranging from january 6th to the overturning of roe v. Wade. I think the question is how many candidates want President Biden to campaign with him. His Approval Rating is still quite low, so i think itll be a case by case basis. We saw that split screen this weekend, as he was both in wisconsin and pennsylvania. In wisconsin, he campaigned with Governor Tony Evers but not with mandel barnes. In pennsylvania, we saw him campaign with john fetterman, who is running for the senate, but josh wasnt with him, who was running for governor. Officials have to figure out what candidates want biden to come and what the message will be when he appears with him or doesnt. President bidens Approval Rating has gone up, but it seems like itll be a case by case, state by state decision, whether the candidates want to embrace him fully or not. Although, obviously, theyre running on a very similar agenda. Tyler, white house aides telling me over the weekend that every single day, the conversation is about donald trump and its a good day for democrats. The maralago search is, again, a reminder to americans of the tumult, the fatigue that came with his time in office. We certainly heard from the president on thursday in his significant speech in philadelphia, Painting Trump as, frankly, an antidemocratic threat for the country. How much do we think the white house is going to lean in on this Going Forward . There was a stretch the president , biden, didnt like talking about his predecessor. That seems like it changed. Yeah, for much of his almost two years in office to this point, we rarely heard President Biden utter the words donald trump, more often referring to him as his predecessor or the former guy. Weve really seen that change, obviously, in recent weeks. And in conversations with white house officials and people close to biden, it has become clear they have determined that biden cant dance around the issue anymore. He has to be explicit, particularly as we move into this full swing midterm season after labor day. Its sort of the official kickoff of the sprint to election day. I think well continue to hear the president and other democrats really put trump on the ballot. This is something democrats have had success running on before. The 2018 midterms were successful for democrats. Also in 2020, biden won his campaign largely by saying, if you dont want the chaos that defined his four years in office, vote for me. As trump is in the News Campaigning for other republicans, also everything going on with the justice departments search of maralago, those are issues democrats are willing to run on, to paint the contrast and tie candidates to trump. Specifically on january 6th, on abortion, where democrats see room to win, polls show theyre much more likely to do so as we head into the midterms. It was supposed to be a tough Midterm Election season for democrats. Their fortunes have changed in recent weeks, and democrats hope to capitalize on that. Lastly and briefly, tyler, we know nothing is more of an obsession for this white house than gas prices. Every day, they check it. Opec plus yesterday, a surprising announcement there, fewer barrels going to the market than expected. What is the quick white house sense as to, are there any nerves here that gas prices could go up again into the stretch run of the midterms . Theres always nerves about the gas prices given the external prices that factor into whether or not it goes up and down. Ron klain has been eager to talk gas prices going down. Itll be interesting whether he can do it every morning as he has been so far. Thats the single greatest issue for the white house. They hope prices trend downward. Washington posts tyler pager, thank you for joining us. Thanks to allgetting up Way Too Early on this tuesday morning. Morning joe starts right now. Byebye. Shes smiling, having a good time.
