Tonight, when wild animals attack. A woman in dead in a lion cage in a sanctuary of big cats. Jack hanna tells me how it can happen. Exclusive, inside this countrys illegal gun trade. What about stronger gun laws . They wont help. They wont help . No. Why . Because criminals dont care about gun laws. So the book of ayles of fox new chief calls the president lazy, the Vice President , quote, as dumb as an ashtray, and Newt Gingrich a word i cent repeat. And the king in his court. From muhammad ali to mike tyson to hugo chavez, don king joins me to talk about his surprising connections. This is piers morgan tonight. Good evening. Youre looking live at the senate floor where an extraordinary filibuster has been going now for nine hours. Also much more, including our exclusive investigation of gun trafficking and my sitdown with don king, perhaps the least man you would expect to have a personal connection to hugo chavez. We begin with breaking news on that deadly lion attack in florida. A
And then this. The children whose lives he touched. The young people he inspired. The most important thing of all. So i ask you to remember that. We all have an ali story. Its the gift we all have. That should be most honored today. Because he released them to the world. Never wasting a day that the rest of us could see, anyway, feeling sorry for himself that he had parkinsons. Knowing that more than three decades of his life would be circumscribed in ways that would be chilling to the naked eye. But with the free spirit, it made his life bigger, not smaller. Because other people, all of us unlettered, unschooled, said well would you look at that . Look at that. May not be able to run across a ring any more. May not be able to dodge everybody and exhaust everybody any moreth and hes bigger than ever, because he is a free man of faith. Sharing the gifts we all have. We should honor him by letting our gifts go among the world as he did. God bless you, my friend, go in peace. [ applause ]
There was no direct apology, but donald trump seemed to try to make amends today over controversial comments he made about the judge overseeing his Trump University case. The approach could help the gops presumptive nominee who is fending off attacks not just from the left, but also from the right as well. Chief Political Correspondent carl cameron starts our coverage tonight with a look at the issues getting in trumps way just six weeks out from the convention. Donald trump walked into the faith and Freedom Coalition of evangelical political organizers and seemed to reverse his controversial claims that the federal judge handling the fraud suit against trump urt is biassed because of his mexican heritage. No one should be judged by their race or their color and the color of their skin. His opposition to accepting Syrian Refugees in the u. S. Brought protesters to their feet. Refugees are welcome here. He used a teleprompter for the second appearance in a row. The first time hes been s
I will call them from now on losers, because thats what they are. Theyre losers. This is mtp daily and it starts right now. Good evening and welcome to mtp daily. Im chuck todd here in washington. Good to be back. And since the last time i saw you, its been revelation after revelation for the trump white house, on multiple fronts, surrounding multiple angles into the russia probe. All of these stories, the firing of james comey, President Trumps meeting with russian officials, his disclosing of classified information during that meet, the drip, drip, drip of Michael Flynn whos now pleading the fifth, the possibility that someone inside the white house is now a significant person of interest in the russia investigation, oh, and i think at one point, calling james comey a nut job in front of russis by the president , that allegation out there, on any one of these stories would be huge on its own for this white house. But add them all up, including possible charges of obstruction of justi
Trump world folks under fire, Steve Mnuchin who again refused to hand over the president s tax returns. And were also watching fbi director Christopher Wray talking spying now in his first testimony since the redacted reports release. And what about Robert Mueller himself . When might we see him in the witness chair . Here is what the white house is saying. The president said Robert Mueller shouldnt testify, but will he try to prevent him from of it something. He hasnt said that. I think his point he tweeted it. No, he said he should not, but he has not said that he will not. The point is very simple. The Mueller Investigation cost about 30 million in taxpayer funding and the definitive conclusive authoritative and final report on this. Our team is here with the stories and the many others were bringing you this hour. A busy one here. Kelly on do kelly odonnell, ill start with you. Apologies in advance in case i have to interrupt you if and when Mitch Mcconnell begins speaking. What is
