Good evening, im ali velshi sitting in for lawrence odonnell. We have a very good last word for you. Trumps tangled web. From russia collusion, to the president s tortured relationship with the truth. Well look at it all over the course of this hour. The day began as a growing web of deceit between president and shifting stories between the president and Rudy Giuliani to clean up Rudy Giulianis nowinfamous fox news appearances. Youll remember he revealed that the president reimbursed Michael Cohen for the 130,000 Hush Money Payment. There are new details that just broke within the last half an hour about when the president learned of that payment to Stormy Daniels. According to the New York Times President Trump knew about a sixfigure payment that michael d. Cohen, his personal lawyer, made to a Pornographic Film Actress several months before he denied any knowledge of it to reporters aboard Air Force One in april, according to two people familiar with the

Thats, i think, one of the reasons why the president is probably as upset as he has been sounding this week. Once they start looking into the
Senator john mccain. It will head for a funeral home tomorrow and the senator will lie in state at the u. S. Capitol, just the 31st person to do that. Joining me now, president ial historian, Douglas Brinkley and retired general mark herling, doug, this is a week long week for senator john mccain the likes we havent seen. You dont see this for anyone other than a u. S. President , perhaps Robert Kennedy, the one exception to that. Maybe not sense Robert Kennedy have we seen this outpouring of emotion for u. S. Senator. I think thats exactly right. The fact Senator Mccain will be lying in state in the rotunda of the u. S. Capitol building one of only 31 others to have had that honor. We do it for president s or Supreme Court justices. The country has fallen in love
