Hello, everyone, im kate boldu bolduan. Thank you so much for joining me. Shock and surprise. You would think at this point it would be nearly impossible for a comment from the about the to shock or surprise anyone. But he did in a jarring oval office interview. President trump said hed welcome foreign interference in the upcoming election. Here he is with abc. Listen. Your campaign this time around, if foreigners, if russia, if china, if someone else offers you information on opponents, should they accept it or call the fbi . I think maybe you do board of health. I think you might want to listen. Theres nothing wrong with listening. If somebody called from a country, norway, we have information on your opponent. Oh, i think id want to hear it. You want that kind of Interfeesinte Interference on our elections . Its information. I think id take it. If i thought there was something wrong, id go maybe to the fbi if i thought there was something wrong. But when somebody comes up with resea
i think i d take it. if i thought there was something wrong, i d go maybe to the fbi if i thought there was something wrong. but when somebody comes up with research, they come up with op research, let s call the fbi, the fbi doesn t have enough agents to take care of it. but you go and talk honestly to congressmen, they all do it, they always have. and that s the way it is. it s called the oppo research. in the 12 hours after that, predictably democrats especially democratic presidential candidates, they have voiced outrage diming dial dialing up calls for impeachment. kamala harris saying that trump is a national security threat. but also predictably, sadly, republicans are either ducking or dodging in large part the president s comments. really criticckets save a couplf republicans. sarah westwood is at the white house where the president is either doubling down or trying to clean things up now. and manu raju s on capitol hill. let s get to it. manu, you would think that my inbo
connect the dots in all of this. it s all about money. and look at what the president is doing in terms of saudi arabia and the sale of perhaps nuclear technologies as well as planes to saudi arabia. follow the money. who benefits from that? declare a national emergency that he can bypass congress in terms. those sales. bypass the law in terms of transferring of any nuclear technology to a country. follow the money. madam secretary yes thank you, good morning. on this issue of a cola increase, is there, number one, a problem with the idea that people come here and because the pay isn t satisfactory, they go off capitol hill and go to k street and that entails corruption? and why is it so hard naturally to then take a vote on this because it s so toxic for a regular pay raise or a cola increase? and is it appropriate at this
president to say that he would listen if foreigners offered dirt on his political opponents? is that the kind of help that you would do? i think we all see you re talking about a hypothetical. everybody in america, we do not want a foreign government interfere in any of our elections and we should stand on that. jon stewart got attention this week with his visit to capitol hill. how do you see the 9/11 fund issue playing out? is it a sunset, is there a way to make sure that everybody we ll see there kevin mckarkty, top republican in the house, answering questions about this issue. jamie is here, robert anderson, former fbi is with me, as well. give me your take on this gets to exactly what we were talking about. what republicans are saying publicly versus what they are saying privately to you. what you hear from kevin mccarthy is he s putting this all on democrats. he doesn t want to talk about what could happen in the future. he says i want to talk about what happened in the
