Because he was speaking to them. I thought thats what made it so powerful. It was. How they could respond to that because he caused them out on every single point succinctly five minutes pretty much wrapped it all up. You have Better Things to do. You have a great show to do. Well be watching that. Thank you so much. A good day to all of su from here in new york. Just a bit past noon in the east is, 9 00 a. M. In the east. Deadline looming. Congress demands the Mueller Report by tuesday. The attorney general says not so fast and delivered another new letter decoding that next. Closing the border. Theyll close it. Well keep it closed for a long time. Im not playing games. Shutdown threat, the potential fallout if the president closes everything between the u. S. And mexico. Is that even possibleable . Beto mania. The rising democrat holding his Campaign Kick off rally in texas. Well take you there as it unfolds. Hey, hey. Thats 7snunacceptable. Thats the difference between me and trump.
Fortitude, patience and hydration, but im hoping someday soon we get merit badges, too. Now its time for the last word with lawrence odonnell. Good evening, lawrence. Good evening, rachel. Do you know how we know you live in western massachusetts . Hmm . Its not your eastern accent, which really is noack se accent all. You call him richie neal because he is the local congressman up there in massachusetts. He is my congressman, he is. He has a large area in a very small state because there isnt very much of us in massachusetts. He is richie e. Neal but ive always known him as richie neal. Thats how ive always known him. There are questions among democrats who are saying, what is chairman neal doing . He has the right to demand these tax returns and he isnt doing it. You can see it is just a meticulously crafted piece. He has found exactly what tax returns and tax return information he wants, especially beyond the personal returns from the trump businesses. And that surely took quite a w
Shared, and he knows nothing about wikileaks, which he cold a tre called a treasure trove in 2016. Along with joanne willie, we have moork barnic have mike barnicle, we have John Heilemann wikileaks. White house correspondent for pbs Newshour Yamiche slalcido is here with us. Do you have the clips . All the times with wikileaks . Its called a deep tease. The sunday before super tuesday claimed to know nothing about david duke, claimed to know nothing about the klan. In 2000 he said he wouldnt run on any ticket that would run on a ticket with david duke. In the wikileaks comment that ran again and again in 2016. When the president throws around terms like spying, much of the country simply tunes out. When attorney general does it, its a whole different story and now the Justice Department is reportedly concerned about partisan allies of the president using William Barrs phrasing to suggest that something illegal occurred. Oh, are they. An attorney said barr was not trying to provide con
E fbis investigation and who that investigation was targeting . Why did a trump cabinet official tell prosecutors that President Trump had not asked him to intervene to try to stop the fbis investigation, when that same trump cabinet official told multiple members of his own staff that the president had done just that . And i could go on. I mean, it turns out turns out even the redacted version of the Mueller Report is like a really good ragout. Its just better the second day. Same thing about chinese take out, too. Its good when you get it, but after its sat overnight in the fridge chilling for a little while, next day, tastier. Maybe less overwhelming than when it first came off the stove. You get more out of it on day two. Weve got a lot going on this hour. Were going to talk about all the questions i just raised right at the top here, but i want to start with one aspect of the part of muellers report that led to dramatic headlines like this all across the country today. Fresno, cal
Calls to moscow for her emails, the change in the republican platform to support ukrain, the talk of easing sanctions, was it all trump saying again and again to putin you keep up what youre doing and ill make it worth your while . Were not going to get a lot of the answers until the full report is released. 300 pages that could go well beyond the principal conclusions the attorney general gave us in his fourpage summary. Until then were not going to know all the investigators found out. The chairman of the House Intelligence Committee believes finding the answers to the questions, in terms of whether trump played ball with putin is a vital question to the country. Were weeks away from getting a look inside that 300page Mueller Report and and adam schiff casted colleagues for pushing for the theyre already trying to undercut it. Truth. My colleagues may think its devin nunes wants to attack the okay that the russians offered dirt on a democratic candidate fbi on how they originated the
