them. as a matter of fact, when the web sisite that i worked for, w wildstein sold that website to a family, he sold it to a family who was the sworn enemy of chris christie. this is not wildstein would have never been at the port authority. when this whole thing started to break, i was telling people wildstein is the one to watch here. a lot of people have a lot of loyalty to him. a character point about david wildstein that people need to keep in mind when they assess his creditability. this is a man who at 6:00 a.m. on september 13th went to the george washington bridge for what purpose? to make sure that the traffic was snarled. that is some sort of civic
appointees at the port authority. it was received by him that morning on the 13th. we learned that it was forwarded to regina agea, christie s director of his authorities unit. from the stuff that s come out, we know she was forwarded this on september 13th. what we don t know is what happened when she got it. did she forward it to somebody else? did she forward it to the governor? did she talk to the governor about it? did she write to somebody to talk to the governor about it? that s an example of the kind of things that might happen with more subpoenas of documents. steve, thank you for joining us. you can watch steve s program each weekend at 8:00 a.m. eastern time only here on msnbc. after years of bitter battles over how to fund the government which included a shutdown and several short-term fixes we now have a budget. president obama signed the $1.1 trillion law yesterday. it overwhelmingly passed both chambers this week.
have been privileged to be part of the governor elect chairman. later, christie appointed him chairman of the port authority. when he did his walk through for the 2012 republican convention, samson is there. he is, simply put, one of christie s closest advisers. traveling with the governor, susana martinez and port authority, chairman, david samson. as he was calling his other newly fired advisers liars, he stood by david samson whose name appeared in the first batch of e-mails from david wildstein. he said he was helping us to retaliate against the new york port authority. on september 13th, the now resigned bill barone forwarded an irate e-mail with the question, general, as in former attorney general, can i call you on this now?
retaliate against the new york port authority. on september 13th, the now resigned bill barone forwarded an irate e-mail with the question, general, as in former attorney general, can i call you on this now? then, just four hours later, wildstein was e-mailing that sampson was helping us to retaliate. the document dub also includes a text message indicating that samson discussed a possible meeting with chris stay days before the traffic jam plot was put into motion. we do not know if that meeting took place. christie and samson were together in the same place on the third day of that same traffic jam. the inconsistencies of david samson s story are becoming more clear by the day. he was forced to tell the press, i have no plans to immediately resign. the big question now is, what s
directly connected and that it wasn t from a video. this has been known and told to the president within minutes after the attack began. i will tell what you bothers me is if she knew that within minutes, on september 13th, 2012, that is two days later she told wolf blitzer when he asked was this a carefully planned operation she said: i can say i have seen no evidence or no assessment that indicates it was. can i certain isly say that there was a protest. and she goes on. it s like why didn t see say that from the get-go? why is she waiting to say now to the hill about a new york times article? i mean, what you know, why not lay it out in the beginning and greta, in politics, courage is learning more and telling what you have learned for senator feinstein to buy in what the administration was saying and over time look at additional assessments.
