Lose territory, they will lose people, they will lose momentum on the front line of the biggest War In Europe since world war ii. Our politics cant seem to process that. It is a real statement of priorities on behalf of the United States of america. My friend ben rhodes, thank you for your time and thoughts tonight, really appreciate it. Thanks, alex. That is our show for the evening. Now it is time for last word with lawrence odonnell. Alex, i was listening to your discussion and i have some concerns about the way we use the word strongman because i fear it can sound just too good to too many voters who think the president of the United States supposed to be a strong man . It is a term weve been using for decades in a way that everyone using it electively understood. Im not sure it communicates what we would like it to communicate here. You are so right. We should call it fascist fan and the boys. That is the essence of what is happening here. I dont have a suggestion, im feeling awkw
Autocracy. That has people around the world much more exercised than in washington, where it seems like this is just another political game. Its another government shutdown, or another fight over the debt ceiling. Know, if we dont deliver this money to ukraine, they will lose territory. They will lose people. They will lose momentum on the front line of the biggest War In Europe since world war ii. And our politics cant seem to process that. Its a real statement of priorities on behalf of the United States of america. Thank you so much for your time and thoughts tonight, really appreciate it. That is our show for the evening, now its time for last word with lauren, good evening, lawrence. At evening, alex. I was listening to discussion and i have some concerns about the way we use the word strongman, because i fear it can sound just too good to too many voters who think, well isnt the president of the United States supposed to be a strong man .

Good to be with you. Im katy tur. Fani willis can stay on the trump interference case but if she does Special Prosecutor Nationen Wade has to go. Were waiting on her decision. While this is a big win for the Fulton County d. A. s office, the judges decision was scarring. Andrew weissmann has more on what stood out to him and what he says continues to jeopardize that case. It is not just georgia. There was another seemingly small but actually pretty significant ruling in florida by judge cannon. She rejected one of trumps motions to dismiss the classified documents case against him, saying his argument of constitutional lateness is premature. Weissmann argues it might have been better for Special Counsel jack smith if she threw out the case entirely. What about the hush money case in manhattan . The d. A. Braggs office says it is turning over even more documents to trumps legal team now giving them 100,000 pages and counting of new evidence. What that means for the trial, which was supp
Welcome back to the weekend. We start the hour with possibilities for donald trump. Just hours after posting a 91 million bond that does allow the defamation of e. Jean carroll. He may have defamed e. Jean carroll again. Too listen to what he just said said. I just posted a 91 million on a fake story, totally made up story. Think of it. none million. I could say things about what it would cost normally. 91 million. Based on accusations made about me about a woman, i didnt know. I knew nothing of her. She wrote a book. And when i denied it, i said, its so crazy, its false. I got sued for defamation. It is remarkable. Lisa ruben is here. It is remarkable because donald trump is donald trump. I want to start with this 91 million, which i think is pretty interesting. Andrew weisman, or friend noted in a tweet. 90 million down, 400 million to go, and the public has no idea who may have put up the money or provided a guarantee to support the bond. But one thing is sure. Trump is beholden to
Good day. Im Chris Jansing live at msnbc headquarters in New York City. Could the war in gaza break what had long been considered unbreakable. The alliance between the u. S. And israel being tested as never before with Prime Minister netanyahu openly defying President Biden and pressing ahead with plans to invade the Southern City of rafah. Biden called it a red line. So what happens if netanyahu crosses it . New jersey senator robert men den dez and his wife back in court today pleading not guilty to more federal charges. At the heart of the newest allegations, whether they tried to hide an alleged Bribery Scheme even after the feds were already on to them. The prosecutor who described President Biden as an elderly man with a poor memory set to testify on capitol hill tomorrow. Will the hearing undo the president s attempts to put worries about his age to rest . We begin now with the growing split between the u. S. And israel. Unlike anything in the long and strong history of that all
