A recap of the days news. A recap of the days news. A recap of the days news. Straight about the steel industry. U. S. Steel Just Announced that theyre building six new steel mills. If you care about the truth, nope, thats not the truth. The only thing u. S. Steel has announced is that it will restart two blast furnaces, restart two blast furnaces, not six new steel mills. And its probably no coincidence the president seems to be especially truth challenged when it comes to russia. And this tweet from july 24th, he famously claims russia will be pushing for democrats in the midterms because, according to him, they dont want trump. But i want you to listen closely. This is Vladimir Putin himself coming from his own mouth, he said at the Press Conference after the disastrous summit in helsinki.

Rachel Maddow takes a look at the days top political news stories. Their way to keep trump out of the trial. Abc news reports that prosecutors have been coaching their witnesses not to mention trumps name or even that manafort lives in trump tower. The judge in the case has warned that bringing up manaforts ties to trump could unduly influence jurors. There is at least one thing about this trial that is important to the relationship between Paul Manafort and donald trump. The first witness today was tad devine, chief strategist for Bernie Sanders an president ial campaign who worked with manafort on political campaigns in ukraine.
