captured. chris joining us, national border patrol council spokesman. chris, this was dumped on the media late last night and i always find that i wouldn t call amusing, but telling because the assumption is that it will get lost assuming there are no news shows on the weekend and you re on one now that s live so we re talking about it. what do you make of that number and what it s telling you and what you ve been reporting and telling folks for quite some time? well, you know, that number, quite honestly, is staggering. you know, a few years ago, 50,000 was a large number, you know, over two million or 200,000, over 200,000 is just, that s an insane number, but i don t think the worst is behind us yet. more people are continuing to show up on a daily basis and they know they re getting a free ride once they get here, they ll continue to move this way. neil: the 227,000 reported in the latest month in september, chris, i m hearing from our griff jenkins that 10 might be

Rachel Maddow takes a look at the days top political news stories. By the letters, chs. Confidential human source. Now, the trove of documents detail reports of payments to steele, mostly redacted. You can see there, thats a lot of white space. There are two exceptions. The final page is information from a document, from february 2016. Of course, thats long before the russia probe began. It says steele was, quote, verbally admonished by the fbi and that steele acknowledged the admonishment and even signed a document noting it. Now, from this excerpt, which obviously is tantalizing, we dont have the wider context of why. The other item comes from page two of these new documents. It concerns the fbis decision to terminate its relationship with steele. Guess when . Just days before the 2016 election. Now, this document says steele had confirmed his relationship with the fbi to an outside party. And that he was a source for a, quote, online article. In addition to revealing his relationshi
Rachel Maddow takes a look at the days top political news stories. They are known as the steele dossier.

Its even easy to forget that, because its the kind of big information thats the center of American Politics, so we all talk about it. People who dont even follow the news know about it. But lets be clear. It was not until march 2017, many months later is, thats after the inauguration, after the election, when fbi director james comey went down to the hill, where he was testifying and said, yes, there was an open probe. By that time, the fbi had also i
A look at breaking news, politics and reports from around the world. Yeah. I think thats a good point. On Paul Manafort, the former Trump Campaign chairman convicted yesterday on eight felony counts, bank fraud, tax fraud, stealing literally millions of dollars from american taxpayers, not reporting income on tens of millions of dollars, is there a chance hell still cooperate with the Special Counsel Paul Manafort . He has another trial coming up next month. Right. Look. If youre Paul Manafort, i mean, youre looking at possibly some serious jail time. There is an incentive. But i think what you are seeing is the president telegraphing directly to Paul Manafort, if you stay put, if you do not as he said, if you refuse to break, if you see that tweet that he he contrasts Paul Manafort with Michael Cohen its very clear that hes telegraphing to Paul Manafort that if he doesnt break with him that perhaps theres a pardon in the offing and you can see, also, by the way, Paul Manaforts legal t
