In the field. This is live coverage on cspan2. For being here. I also thank you, we have the administration here today, especially our ambassador at large, cindy dire, thank you for being here as well. You know, more than 20 years ago, Congress Approved and president signed historic legislation that i authored known as Trafficking Victims protection act of 2000. This bipartisan landmark law created a comprehensive whole of Government Initiative that combat sex and labor trafficking in the United States and around the world. It also established dozens and dozens of new programs to protect victims, prosecute traffickers and prevent Human Trafficking in the first place, the three ps. Looking at the progress made over the years, its hard to believe the Trafficking Victims protection act was met with a serious opposition, a wall of opposition, for those in such of a problem including the media, many exaggerating, that we were talking about the prevalence of this crime not only around the wo
being here with us tonight. the remember when donald trump and his allies were very, very concerned about the mishandling of classified information? it was the thing they cared about almost more than anything else. much of trump s presidential campaign was premised on the idea that his opponent could not be trusted, because she mishandled classified information. in fact, trump s campaign was so concerned about the proper handling of government documents, they believed hillary clinton should go to jail. if i win, i am going to instruct my attorney general to get a special prosecutor to look into your situation. it s just awfully good that someone with the temperament of donald trump is not in charge of the law in our country. because he would be in jail. should hillary clinton be in jail? yes or no, mayor giuliani? you know her. you are a prosecutor. if i did what she did, i would be in jail. if i did a tent a tenth of what she did, i would be in jail today.
look into your situation. it s just awfully good that someone with the temperament of donald trump is not in charge of the law in our country. because he would be in jail. should hillary clinton be in jail? yes or no, mayor giuliani? you know her. you are a prosecutor. if i did what she did, i would be in jail. if i did a tent a tenth of what she did, i would be in jail today. remember the crowds at the republican national convention just thundering over and over again, lock her up? what they were actually saying was lock her up for mishandling classified information. once donald trump did become president, he set about trying to actually do it, to put hillary clinton in jail because of her supposed mishandling of classified documents. on multiple occasions, he told top justice department officials to prosecute clinton. he ordered his white house counsel, don mcgahn, to get the justice department to prosecute her. according to the new book from journalist pete

Welcome, i am Edward Lawrence in for neil cavuto from washington dc. Top story the us economy growing at a slower rate than expected in the First Quarter of the year. Investors not liking what they are seeing with all 3 indices plummeting. Lets get the read from luke lloyd and carol roth. Was the matter earnings missing or gdp estimates today the really sparked the selloff . Im going to say yes. Its a potpourri, a cornucopia of issues. When you have the magnificent seven that has been carrying the market when you get the numbers and the projections, meta, thats going to take something price to perfection and create a bit of an issue. That is third but from my perspective this hugeness gdp, almost a percentage point, at the same time we are running massive deficits, really not only underscores the i
President trump presented some confusion on the tax cut. Business tax all the way down 35 percent20 or it could be 22 . We will see what ultimately it comes out. Shery here now with that and what this means for negotiations is our National Political reporter joining us from capitol hill. So this would be a good revenue raiser . Where are lawmakers likely to use that money question mark its far from certain that this will actually happen. President trump started with a 15 Corporate Tax rate and moved up to 20 which seems to be the redline for a lot of members of the house and the senate on the republican side. Its far from clear that they will go for the 22 . There are two senators i believe would have been happy to have heard President Trump say before the senate vote that marco rubio and mark lee who proposed to tax slightlyporate to finance an expansion of the child tax credit, the president had joined had drawn a redline but seems to be flex will now.
