observatory here in washington. and at martha s vineyard. democrats call the moves cruel and inhuman political stunts. the administration is said to be exploring legal options. republicans say they are giving democrats a taste of their own medicine. white house correspondent jacqui heinrich starts us off tonight from 1600 pennsylvania. hi, yack question. good evening to you, john. for a second day the white house hammered republican governors for moving migrants away from overwhelmed border towns. just as there are reports that some within the administration are saying it s time to do just that. thank you. reporters pushed out the oval office door. the president taking no questions after the press secretary compared the republican governors of florida and texas to human traffickers. these vulnerable migrants were reportedly mislead about where they were headed. told they would be headed to boston. these are the kinds of tactics we see from smugglers in places like mex
because it is for the people. we have to make sure that we protect it at home. laura: in the swamp defense. didn t congress just pass a stock sales ban? no. we have a statement criticizing the democratic leadership for not calling up the stock bill. i m strictly focused on winning the next election. i don t know what her statement is. [question inaudible] you have to have the votes to bring it up. we ll see. we don t go from one day to the next. laura: i have to call paul. the bill is still stuck on pelosi s desk. why? could it have anything to do with the fact that they ve got ten very, very rich during her time in office? of course not. no wonder people are so cynical about government today. no wonder the democrats are in freak-out mode over the possibility of a trump second term. remember, he s already pledged a top-down reform of the civil service. he wants it all cleaned up and cleaned out of political bias and favoritism. now imagine that. a government th
to donald trump s lawsuit requesting that a special master review documents retrieved from his palm beach home. donald trump sued the justice department last week to stop the review of those documents, in a move many are seeing as a delay tactic. in that lawsuit, trump s lawyers claim that he always gave the government complete cooperation. the justice department has until midnight tonight to respond to those claims, and by all accounts they sure have a lot to say. yesterday, the department asked the judge permission to go beyond 20 page filing limit, and submit a 40-page response. 14 pages to trump s lawsuit. the government said it needed the extra pages to, quote, adequately address the legal and factual issues raised by trump s motion. again, that filing can come literally any moment now. that doj filing could potentially shed more light on the government s criminal investigation, and will no doubt serve as a 40-page rebuttal to donald trump s claims of complete cooperatio
