that everyone left, right, indifferent, believes is going to do a good job everyone. is so critically important. we know we re going to learn something. right. that s the shoe we re waiting for. this story doesn t go away until we know that. ian bremer, thank you. it does appear they ve hired the one man for that job. certainly looking at the coverage last night and today, it is as near universal as you re going to get in washington, d.c. one of our in-house counsel, ari melber, has been listening to us cover this story and has picked up on something that has been misreported in the past hour. ari, what s gone wrong here? well, brian, i want to mention it s always difficult when we have secondhand accounts and we re working hard to make sense of what different senators are saying. i just want to read explicitly what senator graham said. it is not quite as bad for trump associates as it might be interpreted. so let s start with the text. senator graham said, that his und
because the trump administration has not really given an answer that they find satisfying? correct. bring in ryan. president tweeted this morning. information is being illegally given to the failing new york times and washington post by the intelligence post just like russia. question is he can blame leaks all he wants but ignores answering questions about this or continues to hit the intelligence community, this story doesn t go away. put aside the fact he spent much of the presidential campaign promoting the illegal ex-filtration of john podesta and dnc e-mails that we believe were taken by russia and given to wikileaks, he was for leaks
i think that there is maybe not a sea change going on, but these republicans are coming out more and more to question. yeah, concerned about what is going on. they are. because the trump administration has not really given an answer that they find satisfying. right, correct. i want to bring in now ryan. ryan, this is what the president tweeted this morning. he said information is being illegally giving to the failing new york times and washington post by the intelligence community nsa and the fbi question mark, just like russia. so, the question is he can blame leaks all he wants, but when he ignores answering questions on all this or continues to hit the intelligence community, this story doesn t go away. well, let s put aside the fact that he spent the entire presidential campaign or much of it promoting the illegal podesta and dnc he have mails we believe were taken by the russians and given to wikileaks.
this story doesn t go away especially before the convention. michael eric dyson, your thoughts on this? timing very interesting, and respond to that lady s sound bite. it was a calculated move by mr. romney to try to infer. see, stewart hall talks about two different forms of racism. overtracism which is explicit and infrarengsal which is suggesting it beneath the surface. he didn t come out and outright say he was not born in the united states of america, but by implication, he is suggesting that he is still not truly american. this is the ultimate othering of the president of the united states of america. it s a calculated move to stir up the pot of racial animus in just the way it was predicted with the outcome of that woman. here she is going, bless her heart, he wasn t born here. why doesn t he show his school? we know where he went to school. why didn t he show his birth certificate? he showed his birth certificate.
than the democrats who are simply treating it as a partisan football. we ve seen a copy of one of the outrage letters that was sent to someone who was believed to be at the party asking them if they could have a confidential conversation about what they remember from that night. as you say, at least at this point, they haven t gotten responses on that. cleta, let s fast-forward a moment. if they aren t able to put forward a meeting on thursday, obviously the story doesn t go away. i would imagine that dr. ford would find another way to get her story out and democrats will continue to go after judge kavanaugh even if he passes this belt and try to undo it. look, this whole thing is being carried out by people who announced their opposition to him the moment that president trump nominated him. you have the minority leader of
