berg, two other trump associates, roger stone and paul manafort they are complying and making documents available to senate intelligence committee investigators, what does that say? it says a lot about the committee and the fact that the committee is doing its work and this is a good progress and a good seib and also says a lot in contrast to flynn as chris was saying about how they feel about their position right now in terms of this investigation. they would, if there was any doubt in their mind about whether these documents in cooperating with the intelligence committee investigation could potentially incriminate, they would plead the fifth and they are not. as far as we know they are cooperating. we don t know if they fully supplied what the committee asked for, if they did fully comply and are not pleading the fifth they feel they are not the target of the investigation and flynn feels potentially he is. john, the president, when he was standing with the prime
it seems to be looming large. silence seems to be deafening. put out a tweet of why you don t bomb runways, no evidence they were trying to take out the runway, just didn t happen. on the messaging here, how important is it for the president to be out front and what is the likely of where he ll come down on this? i agree with tony that it s extremely important. i don t think it is 100% clear where he ll come down on it, given both the dissidence within the administration, we heard from different voices, but also the distance that all of this conversation has traveled from where he was during the campaign. remember at points during the campaign he even suggested we could work with assad against russia. going back to alisyn s point, it s true there is majority public support for this action, but it is at the lowest end. we have seen gallup reported of any military action it has seib. essentially only half the country saying it supports this and dividing along familiar lines with the gr
of collapse. the campaigns are in absolute panic mode. if the election were tomorrow republicans lose u.s. senate, i believe lose it on election day, chuck schumer the next majority leader. donald trump is in a position where he could lose a state like utah because you have independent candidacy. a mormon. a mormon on the ballot. you have seib in the primaries that mormon in western states has always been. you ve been in senate campaigns where there s an attempt to nationalize races and not. democrats right nor all going to try to centralize their opponents and tie them to trump, whether they have denounced trump or not denounced trump. is that a strategy that can work? we ll see. we have to remember, we have 30
they are sharing what they are finding. here it is. i m talking mortars. that s right. snakes. and rocket launchers. joining me now, alison kosik sorting through all of this. alison, what the hell? this instagram page is one of the most entertaining i ve seib in a long time because it s a hilarious array of pictures showing what passengers packed in their luggage. these passengers actually thought they can board the plane with this stuff. let s go to the luggage with marijuana. 81 pounds. all i have to say is duh. they barely threw some clothing in there. maybe they were high but who actually thinks they can get away with this. i don t know. another one of my favorites i know. i can t believe it. let s go to the knife shaped as the gun. what s really interesting about this, first of all, again, do you really think you can get on
the when s that, jay? you know, the deadline set by the treasury department, by the career analysts there, in terms of when we lose our borrowing authority is august 2nd. when do you congress will act. and in other words, a bill that comes to the president s desk by the morning of august 2nd is in time? as i understand it that would be the case. i don t know if it s august 1st or august 2nd depending on the hour of the day when think eventuality might come to pass. we don t think it will get to that. again, we make no mistake. conversations continue. obviously, between leaders of both parties on capitol hill. between those leaders and members of the administration. we are seeking a way out of this impasse, this balanced and can be supported by democrats and republicans and that can be seib signed by this president. we think that can happen. it s not pretty. as you know, this process in washington is as ugly as making sausage can be sometimes, but in the end, there i
