Jonathan turley on the president s legal push. Garrett tenney on breaking developments out of michigan, but we begin at the white house with kristin fisher. Good afternoon, kristin. Good afternoon, bill. Well, a lot of the claims that we heard during that News Conference we have heard before. And, in fact, many of them have already been thrown out in court. But there were two that were new. And they are out there. I really dont know any other way to say it. Rudy giuliani claimed that there was a centralized plot involving widespread voter fraud in big cities that are controlled by democrats. And then another member of the Trump Campaigns legal team sidney powell, she says that that plot came is communist in origin and came from venezuela. Now, to be very clear, the Trump Campaign has not come anywhere close to proving those final last two claims in court and listen to what karl rove thought about it just moments ago. These are serious, i think, somewhat strange accusations but serious
Welcome to monday. It is meet the press daily. Im katy tur in new york in for chuck todd.

All of this is a dangerous perversion of the constitutio

Just throwing money around, not newcomer Michael Bloomberg just trying to buy it but going taking most of the punches with state to state to state talking to people, understanding their senator Elizabeth Warren not holding back and leading the needs. No, they shouldnt be afraid of charge against the former new york mayor. A billionaire who calls women it. As senator sanders pointed out fat broads and horse faced lesbians. When the reverend dr. Martin no, im not talking about donald trump, im talking about mayor luther king condemned bloomberg. Militarism, materialism and are you willing to release all poverty. As we know before he was of those women from those assassinated he was bringing together working class people, nondisclosure agreements . Poor people, the poor peoples they signed those agreements and w
