kristen gillibrand, richard blumenthal, on and on, have said they re going to return u the money. if not return, they re saying they ll donate it. here s what she said when fareed asked about that. senator blumenthal says people should give back the money he donated to him. he donated to you directly and indirectly. would you give the money back? well, there s no one to gif it back to. what other people are saying, what my former colleagues are are saying is that they re ging to donate it to charity. i give 10% of my income to charity every year. this will be part of that. there s no doubt about it. mark? well, 10% plus, right? or is this 10% there of. the bottom line is hillary clinton, other democrats, was on the receiving end of a large amount of money from harvey weinstein as well as those people who had supported him and had backed him and he would hold
angeles police department officers responded to the house of the daughter of harvey weinstein at about 10:37 a.m. they re not giving out a lot of details. they re saying they re currently investigating, but obviously, this is noteworthy considering all of the turmoil around this man. all of the accusations that are coming out about him, but little mag on what that mapped, who was there and what may have happened that would lead his daughter or someone who was there to make that call. thank you very much, stephanie, as we try to figure out the nature of this. now to mark preston, stacey honowitz and brian steltser. brian, let me start with you and what you re hearing about weinstein. certainly in recent days, his friends have been worried about him. he traveled in a very elite group of media ceos, hollywood big shots, people like that. i spoke with a ceo of a major media company earlier in week who said i am concerned about harvey. i m concerned he s going to lash
fantasy presidents. you look at the way they act when tremp says something disturbing. they weigh in. they jump at the opportunity to serve as that president in waiting almost even though none of them are ever going to run again. is it too much to ask for consistency? whether it s a democrat or republican, when these stories happen, when these scandals break, i think what most americans want is just consistency of outreach. consistency of outrage. there s such a sense of embarrassment on anyone s part thatt ehad a relationship with him. they re going the say how could i be friendly with this person. i think they feel the same way. obama s daughter was an intern for the weinstein company. do you think if he knew this was going on o, he would allowed his daughter to go work there? now, i m caught. let me give back, step up, do the right thing. that s the kind of framework we re in right now. of course, mark, the big
trumps may have exaggerated their statements, no laws were brok broken. later, it was learned donald trump sr. s personal lawyer intervened and that he had donated $25,000 to vance s re-election campaign. this was handled poorly. on the other hand, i don t know that i would quarrel with his ultimate decision. vance returned the $25,000 before initially meeting with him, but later, that sa that san 2012, he donated another $32,000. that was returned just this month. after the second donation was uncovered in a news report. he has not responded to cnn s calls for comment. i don t regret as a da having to raise money in order to campaign for office. the only thing mark evercontrib has had the slightest impact on my decision making.
out in the wrong way and that he s not going to take the right lessons from this ordeal. earlier in the week, he was blaming his brother, bob, saying this was all bob s plot to force me out of the company. as of last night, his representative said he is on the way to rehab. there were reports he might be fly iing to europe for rehab b. as of right now though, he s still in los angeles. he said to page six, i am going to go to rehab. i don t know where yet. i m doing therapy. this sounds like a man that is more with himself and has his friends concerneded. and still in l.a. we don t know the nature of the 911 call, whether it was related to him or his state at this time. mark preston, what do you make of hillary clinton coming out and look, she had not said anything for five days given the 90 minute talk in which he talked about sexism and didn t bring it up. she did put out a statement. but these are her first comments we are hearing in depth and
