Beginning, the middle or end of a speech thats about a war somewhere else. Jason, you want to Say Something . Yeah, i think its great the president brought it up. I fundamentally disagree with you. I agree with ana, its good were hearing from the president on this. I just said if he wanted to speak about this, he could have said im going to address the nation regarding charlottesville and race. Could he have addressed the nation regarding charlottesville and race and told a town hall. He didnt. He addressed a nation about afghanistan and then snuck something in there and didnt even mention charlottesville, didnt mention the words, just alluded to it. Thats not a forthcoming approach. He brought it up right off the top. He didnt even mention charlottesville. If you were just just sort of a casual listener, maybe you knew what he was talking about, maybe you didnt. But if he came out and said i want to address what i said and what actually happened in charlottesville because there is the
In a discotecha or in a nightclub or on a yacht. And all in starts right now. Good evening from new york. Im chris hayes with the passage today of the republican tax bill, the partys Central Economic message over the past nine years has been definitively exposed for what it really was all along. Sheer, aggressively cynical, bad faith. The next time a republican tells you the deficit is their number one priority, you will know ahead of time they are lying about that. Taking a victory lap outside the white house this afternoon, republicans celebrated their single big legislative achievement this year, one they hope will keep them in power next fall. The president is already taking credit for boosting the economy into overdrive. Hasnt been done in 34 years, but actually really hasnt been done, because we broke every record. We have companies pouring back into our country, and that means jobs and it really means the formation of new, young, beautiful, strong companies. So thats going to be
Republican record when it comes to the economy. That the republicans wrote this bill to pay off their biggest donors. Plus, a new warning to the president not to fire Robert Mueller. And why this guy is the poster child for the tax bill. I want my shirts to be able to be worn in the board room or in a discotecha or in a nightclub or on a yacht. And all in starts right now. Good evening from new york. Im chris hayes with the passage today of the republican tax bill, the partys Central Economic message over the past nine years has been definitively exposed for what it really was all along. Sheer, aggressively cynical, babad faith. The next time a republican tells you the deficit is their number one priority, you will know ahead of time they are lying about that.

For infamous on immigration to claim ilg in accordancgnorance. Im telling you, he did not use that word, george. Its a gross misrepresentation. I didnt hear it and i was sitting closer farther than dick dishon. But dick durbin in backing down. Its pretty embarrassing when you have to take your children out of the room to report the news. This surreal he said he said is happening on Martin Luther king jr. As described by mlks nephew at the white house as a day on, not a day off. Its not a day to hang out in the park or pull out the barbecue grill. Its the day to do something to help someone else. And that can be as simple as delivering someones trash. Or picking up the newspaper for that elderly person who cant get to the end of the driveway. President donald trump spent his morning at his private golf club. Former White House Communications director Anthony Scaramucchi is here to talk about this in a moment. Chris chris citizen welker at the white house. And christopher atkins. A day o
That there has been a subpoena. Theres something going on here that is i think hard to dismiss as a coincidence in terms of bannon being requested to speak to mueller, his lawyer saying hell be happy to cooperate, and him showing up at house intel, and this fake debate that we dont understand. He has no choice when it comes to mueller. We know mueller can force him to speak to their investigation, whether it be a grand jury or more cooperatively. The game played with the committee is interesting. And one wonders is the special counsel in any way involved in these delays . Is this something that the special counsel actually wants . It would not be unusual for a special counsel or special prosecutor to want to make sure that that the counsels inquiry, the criminal inquiry got first crack before it can be consumed by congress or leaked to people in the white house. We dont have any direct information that mueller has stopped the testimony from Going Forward but theres this weird dynamic w
