The days biggest political and news stories, with interviews and reporting from around the nation. Thursday, a Sanctions Bill against russia. This will be a heck of a lot easier if there was a white house who actually carried and was willing to get in the fight. Clearly continuing, the russians are not going to slow down. The last point is the problem that hangs over this entire news tonight. It appears the fbi and facebook are acting in realtime, which indicates some learning compared to 2016. The president himself though hasnt only undercut past intelligence about russia attacking in 2016, he also says he doesnt think its happening now either. Is russia still targeting the u. S. , mr. President . Press, lets go, make your way out. You had a chance to speak with the president after his comments. The president was said thank you very much, and was saying no to answering questions. Im joined by msnbc terrorism analyst malcolm nance. And Harvard Law Professor johai
platform to stoke fears on the right. So if we dont stop it right now, its going to get worse. Im a longtime readeri er o your work. You are measured and precise. I bring to you some of the numbers which dont suggest a wide or large scale, but anytime you have Something Like this with an election it is important, in a democracy. Let me read to you what were getting from facebook. 290,000 accounts were following the pages. The events they caught were about 30 in america. And the spend quite low when you think about all the midterms going on, 11,000 on 150 ads. Thats whats been caught in realtime. Your analysis . Good to be with you again. And i think we should all be happy that facebook is responding, and that theyre actually cooperating, both with federal agencies and with independent researchers. The first strike of a larger effort . We dont know enough to know whether what facebook has done is enough or theyre just finding a little bit. What we do know is when we look at the data from the election itself, this is a very similar pattern. They seem to be jumping on bandwagons that are already there. Theyre trying to show some success. But largely theyre not driving the effect, just like they didnt drive the concerns with voter fraud that the republicans were pushing. Theyre not driving the resistance to i. C. E. Theyre not driving the rejection of the white house supremacists. So i think it just needs to be taken in context. They are trying to theyre trolling us. Theyre trying to make us feel like our democracy is not safe because of them when, in fact, its internal divisions with very long and deep roots. Let me press you on that. Really pushing us. Let me press you on that and
im going to natasha. Your claim you just made would suggest they want us to find this and be scared, facebook revealing they do this as whoever is doing it, trying even harder not to get caught. How do you square that . To yochai first. Oh, i have no doubt that they are trying to do it, and that what theyre trying to do, if americans were working with them, is illegal. Theyre trying to cover up. Right. They are professionals trying to do their work. Okay. The problem is that we need to not overstate how important they are. Right. Let me go to natasha then, your analysis . Yeah, i think that one of the things that worried me the most about this announcement was obviously not the scale of it, 30 is a relatively low number, but it was the fact that it seems like theyre getting more competent, that theyre learning how to cover their tracks more efficiently, that theyve really begun to adapt now that they know theyre in the cross hairs
million people. Thats another part of my concern, facebook may not know the full extent right now of how many accounts are operating on its platform, and whether many of these accounts are actually totally sleeper accounts that will become more active around the runup to the election. That goes through a time when a company has been hammered on stock prices spending more on security. The trump cam page, the digital director, has always been clear facebook is how they won. Take a look. I understood early that facebook was how donald trump was going to win. Twitter is how he talked to the people. Facebook was going to be how he won. And facebook is how he won. I think so. I mean, i think donald trump won. But i think facebook was the method. It was the highway in which his car drove on. Malcolm . Well, you know, i dont want to bring this down to a discussion as to whether
there. Yochai, brief rebuttal. Its important to be to look. But if you look at the data from the election, and you look at specific allegations, like the account that drove the voter fraud story, that account thats in the mueller indictment starts communicating seven days after donald trump as candidate is pushing voter fraud, after he goes on hannity and oreilly. Then to step back and say the russians shaped the elections as opposed to looking at the piece that you just showed about the importance of facebook and focusing on targeted advertising, on making sure that facebook targeted advertising is fully transparent and is available for the public to look at. If we focus on the russians, because we give them too much impact, first of all we accredit them. And second, we divert their attention from where facebook might be having mass effect,
which is in the targeted behavioral marketing thats not transparent enough. And we dont have targeted behavior i dont recaal marketi rundown. Its still a question of vigilance versus overreaction. I hope to get you both back on together. Natasha stays with me later in the show. Up next, the democrats top russian investigator in the house, congressman adam schiff is here live.

Joining me live is congressman adam schiff, Ranking Member of the house intelligence committee, which has been quite busy today with face books revelation on new attacks with the midterm elections, thanks for being with me tonight. Good to be with you. People who are following this news as it breaks, or may have heard at the top of the show,
two qualified experts disagree on the level of intensity, what does this new revelation mean about this attack on the midterms tonight . We need to view this in combination of what we learned a week ago from microsoft. Two of the vectors the russians used in the last election they appear to be using again. In both of the mueller indictments, theyre using social media surreptitiously to divide americans, to accentuate the fault lines in our society. Theyre hacking or attempting to hack political campaigns, we saw Claire Mccaskill is one of the targets of this, and that she was a target the same week that donald trump was evidently saying publicly that she needed to be defeated. That has an echo of july of the Election Year in which donald trump said publicly, hey russians, if youre listening, hack Hillary Clintons emails. On that date they did try to hack the clinton campaign. Congressman, respectfully, to push you on that, he would probably be on record against the reelection of most any incumbent democrat. Thats certainly true. But it also looks like the russians may have been listening when he called for Claire Mccaskills ouster. The timing, again, is very suspicious. The timing of that attempted hack of her campaign took place not months after he mentioned Claire Mccaskill. And it wasnt like there was a tremendous volume of campaigns that were the subject of attack. According to to microsoft, there were only three, and that was one of them. So the timing is certainly suspicious. But it looks like, because theyve identified similar actors to the Russian Hackers of the dnc, that the russians are using using both of these modalities, hacking of campaigns, Surreptitious Social Media again to influence our elections. I also want to get your report card here on what is a giant and powerful corporation,
facebook. Because in ways that no one, i think, would have predicted, many years ago, they have become a key platform and utility, if you will, for how we do democracy and civic discussion in this country. You and others have been critical in the past. I want to read how Mark Zuckerberg is assessing this tonight. Security isnt a problem you completely solve, but were learning and quickly too. Were vesting heavily to keep people safe. What grade to you give them, and how true does that statement feel to you given how much more you know than most of us about the Back Room Pressure to get this company to act responsibly. Its a work in progress. Im pleased they came forward with this announcement today, even if they had to caveat it and say we cant definitively say this was the russian government, but there are links to this troll farm in st. Petersburg. Thats what we need them to do. We need this to be timely. They referred to events that it appears, again, that these russian trolls are trying to
organize in the United States and victimize real people and get real people involved in protests or count protests without knowing that they the impetus originates in russia. In the real world. What does it say to you that already the markings, or the overlap at least of russian operations, what does that say to you about this attack were learning about tonight . Just what we expect. The russians wont be so blatant than last time. Theyre not using the same ip addresses. Theyre going to hide their hand. And facebook clearly acknowledges that in their statement today. Which means facebook will have to do better sleuthing. Also, facebook acknowledges we need to make sure our Intelligence Community and cooperating and there are challenges, theres a free flow of information and im concerned that we learn from microsoft about this attempted hack of three campaigns. They would have informed the fbi
or the department of homeland security. I would have thought we would have been notified in congress about this. None of that happened. It didnt go up through the food chain. There wasnt the kind of whole of government response there should be, and that alarms me getting closer to the midterms. Does that relate to leadership or lack thereof from the Trump Administration . Unquestionably. There are, i think, people at the midbureaucracy level trying their best at the homeland of security, and at the top of the Intelligence Community. But theres no one at the top saying this is a priority of our administration, you need to work with each other, talk with oecheer. Instead we got the guy at the top saying this is all a hoax and a witch hunt. Which now tonight feels very real as undercutting something that is actually relevant to how we choose the body youre in, the congress. Weve gone several minutes, congressman schiff, without discussing Rudy Giuliani. I would like to rectify that by showing the comments he made that are both bizarre in how he
did it, but relevant in the sense hes the lawyer for the president talking about a potential meeting that might add culpability. Take a look. There was another meeting that had been leaked, but hasnt been public yet. There was an alleged meeting three days before. According to cohen, or according to the leak, he says there was a meeting with donald jr. , with jared kushner, with Paul Manafort, with gates, and possibly two others, in which they, out of the presence of the president , discussed the meeting with the russians. We checked with their lawyers, the ones we could check with, which was four of the six. That meeting never, ever took place. It didnt happen. Is this important in any way, and does your investigation look at whether there were such meetings that could suggest greater culpability about this potential collusion and
conspiracy . Well, we certainly tried to look into this. But all too often the majority on our committee was uninterested in getting the answers. So when witnesses stone walled us and refused to answer, the republicans were unwilling to subpoena them or compel them. We werent allowed to follow the evidence where it was leading. But here you have giuliani saying, okay, there was a premeeting, and then he quickly corrects himself, an alleged premeeting. Hes all over the map. But you can look at the statements hes been making, along with the president s confirmation of the new defense strategy, collusion is not a crime, and you can see that plainly they feel there is evidence that the president knew in advance that this is what theyre worried about, that evidence is going to come forward, that the president knew in advance of the trump tower meeting, so theyre shifting to a okay, even if there was collusion, even if the president was involved in collusion, its not a crime. But, of course, the crime is conspiracy. So theyre playing a word game. But nonetheless i think this kind of throw everything you can at the wall strategy of Rudy Giuliani doesnt really serve the president s interests very well. But it is telling. You know, the only other point i would make on this is that i think that theyre clearly spooked by Michael Cohen. And theyre making the leaks, not Michael Cohen, it seems, at least as far as the sum of it is concerned. And i have to imagine that they might have gotten this information if there had been a joint defense of some kind with Michael Cohen and these other counsel, that Michael Cohen has now opted out of because it seems to be theyre very specific about this premeeting that they are you know, six members or eight members, and theyve talked to four of the six or six of the eight. Theyre using a great many particulars, and they clearly, i think, want to try to get this out there, and minimize it before Michael Cohen does. But i just dont see that its going to be all that effective a
defense strategy. Well, thats the weird part. Rudy ju Rudy Giuliani is insisting this dinner never took place, but everyone had sushi. Congressman adam schiff, thanks for being here. Thanks, ari. Up ahead, i break down the Central Government on trumps idea that collusion is not a crime. Thats wrong. It is. Ill explain in 30 seconds. Edge of the box, willingham shoots. Goooooooaaaaaaaallllllll that. Was. Magic. Willingham tucks it in and puts the championship to bed. Sweet dreams, nighty night. As long as Soccer Players celebrate with a slide, you can count on geico saving folks money. Fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance. Pressure, what pressure . The players on the. The other top story tonight, after all the guilty pleas and
charges today is an unusual point in modern american history. The Campaign Chair for a sitting president facing trial for crimes that could give him life in prison. Muellers prosecutors throwing the book at Paul Manafort today, and thats a Bad Association for any white house at trial like this. Though prosecutors do say they do not expect russia to come up, meaning this trial is not expected to breakthrough answers on collusion. And that actually makes it quite odd that this is the week that trump and his allies are bringing up collusion, not to say it never happened, but to claim, as weve been reporting tonight, that its maybe okay even if it did. The argument is that collusion is not a crime. Even if more evidence comes out about it, thats okay. They also argue that those rookies in that meeting did no better, which doesnt really apply to a veteran operative like Paul Manafort. Colluding with foreigners to impact a u. S. Election is a crime. Lets go through it briefly. One, its a crime to get anything of value from foreigners. Two, its a crime to defraud the
United States. Three, its a crime to steal things, whether you steal objects like everything that was ripped off in watergate, or you steal email, which is what is at issue in muellers latest indictment. And finally, four, its a crime to engage in a conspiracy of any of those other crimes. So collusion is not only a crime, collusion involves at least four crimes. Those are the legal facts. Now, in fairness, we will note here as we have many times on this program, no american has been charged with any of those crimes. In fact, Bob Mueller May never charge any americans. So that could be a good thing if you are rooting for this white house to escape any collusion culpability. But these are crimes. They do exist. And thats what makes it so odd to watch the trump teams evolving defense. Collusion is not a crime. And so the fact of the matter is
that were a long way away yet from having anything to talk about here. Collusion is not a crime. Only in antitrust law. You can collude all you want with a Foreign Government in an election. Theres no such statue. But what crime . Right. Can anybody identify the crime . Theres no evidence of colluding with the russians. Its not a crime. Collusion is not a crime. Theres not any evidence of any collusion here involving our client that drum beat, of course, escalated this week with Rudy Giulianis interviews and a president ial tweet today. They never used it. Is the main thing. They never used it. They rejected it. If there was collusion with the russians, they would have used it. Ive been sitting here looking at federal code trying to find collusion as a crime. I dont know if thats a crime, colluding about russians. Im bringing in John Flannery and seth waxman. Back with me as well. John, take it away. Well, these Guys Sure Shouldnt Be Teaching First Year Law Criminal law. Theres also not, in the code,
you wont find colluding with russians either. But the definition that were concerned about is when two or more persons commit agree to commit a crime, that is the crime of conspiracy. And if you are considering the fact of what collusion is, again its two or more persons agreeing to commit a crime. So you cant subtract the crime, the object of the agreement and say, well, collusions not a crime. And i suppose what theyre saying is the technical word collusion, they cant find it in the code. But the elements of a crime is how we define it. In section 371 yeah defines it that way. Its a collusion conspiracy. Correct, yes. And interestingly if you just take the june 9th meeting, you may have the premeeting that rudy doesnt know happened or not. Youre talking about the sushi dinner. Yeah, sure. And then on june 8th, the russians put the stolen emails and other information from the
dnc and the dccc online. The next day theyre at the tower, and were to believe that they talk about adopting russian children rather than what the email said that put together the meeting that said russia likes trump for president , and we want to help you. And they have a meeting. And afterwards we see that they do it. Right. Let me go to seth on the stolen property piece. If material was stolen, and just went around the world on the internet, and thats the end of it, then you could make the argument that that just happened, right . The problem is that in their defenses they seem to be closer to the idea, and i want to be very fair here, it is not alleged that they personally received the stolen material yet. But if they did, receiving stolen material, depending how you do it and what you do with it, can be criminal, and there are precedents, which is what we lawyers tend to look to, seth i want to reach back into the vault for this fantastically interesting corollary where when the Gore Campaign received material helpful to it but they
were concerned it might be stolen on bush, they immediately called the fbi. Take a look. Somebody had stolen it, evidently, from the bush campaign. And mailed it to my close friend tom downey who was going to be bush the bush standin in debate prep. It wasnt mailed from moscow, but it was mailed from texas. We immediately turned it over to the fbi. And tom recused himself on the whole debate process. Seth, how does that figure into the analysis . Sure. I mean, that can be aiding and abetting, or an accessory after the fact, someone commits a crime, hacking into computers, and then shares that information with you, knowingly, and you make use of it, that can be an aiding and abetting crime, or an accessory after the fact that under the criminal statues and penalties you as an aider and abetters are as criminally responsible as the principal who conducted or committed the act
at first. You offer up four crimes at the outset of your piece there, and ill offer up another one, federal bribery. Ive been jumping up and down for months, as you know, writing opeds and tweeting out that federal Bribery Statue, 15year offense, criminalizes a this for that exchange. Dirt on hillary in exchange for a promise to lift or reduce sanctions on russians, that is a classic quid pro quo. As you and i talked about in the past, because that Bribery Statue has that unique language that makes it applicable to people sworn into office and candidates, it puts it right in the whole house of this meeting. And that hammer of the 15year penalty is far greater than conspiracies to defraud the United States or Election Campaign finance violations. And thats the kind of hammer federal bribery, and it can be a predicate for reco, on a services fraud, even 20year offenses. Thats the kind of crime federal
prosecutors used to flip seniors or Chief Lieutenants of conspiracy. Seth waxman, citing the term of art in federal precedent when when the Bribery Liability attaches to a nominee might be a more impressive legal point than anything youve said, i dont know. I dont want to pit you guys against each other. Natasha, on the wider ambet of this, walk us through your analysis of the wider politics of this, why are we hearing about this as the Manafort Trial begins . What kind of tell do you see it as . Whats interesting about this Talking Point is that it actually emerged in the right wing media around the time that jim comey was fired as fbi director. So it seems to emerge anytime theres kind of a crisis going on. With regard to the president s position within the russia investigation. So now we see it emerging, just
after this lev ration that Michael Cohen is willing to testify to prosecutors that, you know, trump not only knew about the trump tower meeting, but actually approved it. And, of course, days before the manafort hearing, which is not going to focus on collusion or russia. We saw today in the Opening Statements it really didnt have anything to do with that. It has to do with bank fraud, tax fraud, et cetera. Still, there has to be a nervousness there. Looming over the entire trial is the fact that Paul Manafort is at the center of questions about whether this is not a new Talking Point. Its been out there. It seems to kind of resurface every time the white house seems really scared about something. But its definitely one that is a conscious effort to shift the goal posts here. John, did you ever see There Will Be Blood the movie . No, i didnt. Theres a great scene in there, where he keeps screaming, i drank your milk shake. Thats what seth feels hes done
to you legally in the segment. Im not taking sides. I want to give you a final world, if seth was, indeed, the more arcane legal analyst tonight, not taking sides. In the case of bribery, it takes only two to tan go, and therefore its not treated the same as conspiracy. Necessary to bribery is that there be at least two people. The thing thats interesting to me about a conspiracy is you dont actually have to achieve the object of the conspiracy. If they had the meeting and they had these conversations to advance the conspiracy, that is to do a quid pro quo with russia, theyre stuck, even if they didnt do anything after that. Now, i believe that they have, and your question is, will we ever find out that any person or persons is involved in this, i think you can take that to the bank. Your point about how many involved goes to how hard it is to prove the case. Anyone watching at home, wondering what law school is like, it would be like if this segment lasted three years, who
wants that . My special thanks to our great experts tonight. Up ahead, beyonce breaking a Color Barrier at vogue. D. L. Hughley getting serious on shootings in the trump era.

She makes out her case in a new piece where she says trump is unfit to be president , and shes calling on fellow republicans to put aside the gop label and demonstrate the leadership our country needs by calling on this president to step down. Christine todd whitman joins me. This is your first interview since this piece came out. I appreciate you coming to the beat with it. Pleasure, good to be here. What moved you to state this now . The behaviors been building, the erratic behavior of the president , but particularly the way he handled the meeting at nato and the european union, and then the meeting with putin. Im sorry, when you diss our allies in the way he did, treat them the way he did, and then you cozy up to somebody like Vladimir Putin who is not our friend, he is not going to be our ally, and he, to my mind, really forgot his Oath Of Office to protect and defend the constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic. And, frankly, putin is somebody with whom youve got to deal very strongly, and you cannot assume that he is going to be your friend. Do you think that conduct, which took you to this position, reflects bad judgment on the part of donald trump, or potentially something worse . Certainly bad judgment, without a question. Theres bad judgment there. Whether its anything worse or not, i think well find out over time. Its hard to know with this president because it changes so, every day within a day youll get two or three times youll get a different story and a different take on things coming out of the white house itself. So its hard to know whether theres anything more behind it rather than just bad bad judgment and the fact that he likes strong men. We know that, he likes kim jongun, thinks hes a great guy. Heres somebody who offs half his family, and anybody who disagrees with him. Putin is the same way. The kinds of things hes done, i just got back on saturday from the republic of georgia, not our state of georgia, but overseas. Sure. And you see there, i was doing a preelection mission, and you see the heavy hand of russia always in the background. I mean, theyre not playing in this election as much as they have in past ones. But the kinds of things that were seeing today, the fake news, the influence that theyre peddling, the Fear Mongering that theyre doing, its very reminiscent of what we see happening in this country, and its very, very disturbing if you care about the United States of america. Youre a former republican, elected official. I am. The party has long touted itself on national security, on service, on loyalty to the United States. What do you think when you see this republican president and his allies say even if they did collude with russia to impact the election, thats not a crime . I find it extraordinarily offensive. I dont care if its a crime in the code book or not, it is best
interests of the United States. You do not collude. For a president to get up there and say of course, again, the story has changed right along. First there was no collusion, and well, it doesnt matter if i did or not. It does matter. And words matter. Thats the other thing about what happened over there in europe. Its the words that he uses, the language that he uses, that confuses people, that undermines our country as a world leader, that has now started to isolate us, and were going to need allies. Theyre important. Weve worked with them before. We need them. And putin is never going to be our ally. Neither is kim jongun. Your counterpart, Chris Christy, you both held the same post, republican governor of new jersey. He once claimed to be a moderate, he has been very loyally defending donald trump. What happened to Chris Christy . Well, i mean, i think he i know chris well enough to think that he believes now what he is saying. And he is a supporter of the of the republican president. I think it goes that far. And i think at some point he was
hoping for a little higher position than hes been able to get there. But even so, he is higher than nothing . Higher than nothing, yes. I think he was hoping you didnt say it, i said it. You said it. He has no position. He has no position. I was hoping he was going to have a position. But also, its because hes a loyal republican. I mean, there are people who will tell you that well, some of the emails that ive gotten and tweets, postings since that oped have been anatomically challenging, shall we say. But the language used, which is really too bad, well its 70 30 in favor, versus against. But and there have been a few of those who are against who are thoughtful, whose positions i understand, i get it, i respect them. The rest of them, its just the kind of language you wouldnt let your fifth grader use. Right. And when we worry so much about bullying in our schools, and the outcome of that, i think weve got the worlds number one bully at the head of the
country. Not good, not good for us longterm. Governor whitman, speaking to some of the reaction youve gotten, i know a lot of other people have been heartened by this at a time where whats happening in this country has raised questions about who will stand up. Its very interesting to see your piece. I appreciate you coming on the beat to talk about it. Governor Christine Todd whitman. Up ahead, d. L. Hughley joins me. Are signs of joint erosion.

Times more likely than white men to face a killing by police. All too often, the conversations can focus on the victims behavior. What were they wearing or how did they act, what were they doing in that neighborhood anyway. My next guest has written a book on this topic. You may know him for his comedy for the points that he makes on this issue. D. L. Hughley. The book is how not to get shot. And other advice from white people. If you are the author of the book, i dont think you are white people. No. But they are so adept to telling us what to do, how to comply. I think america just doesnt have a problem with americans,
african americans, people of color being slain by the hands of the police. You will hear white group saying most policemen are good apples. I wonder what you are doing in this book as a successful black man where you are using the book to explain you dont have to personally be murdered by an officer to have it affect your rights, your personal rights the way you feel Walking Around with your family. The book is simply this. It is not an indictment of society, but it is an inspection of can. There is always a presumption of innocence on one or a presumption of guilt. If we are who we say we are, we
should be this is what it is like. Here is tim scott who i know you, and i know him a little bit. And i dont think you agree on a lot. Here he is speaking on this very issue. In the course of one year, i have been stopped seven times by a Law Enforcement officer. Not four, not five, not six. But seven times in one year as an elected official. You cant find a black person in this country that cant tell you about a negative experience they have with police. A lot of us dont know who we are. They know who we are from the media. I dont fault the police because
they are enacting a mission statement. And that mission has been in communities of color, not to protect and serve, but keep us where we belong.
