Yeah. Its a shame. Its an absolute shame. It is tragic. Yep. Thank you, joy. Thank you, my friend. Donald trump was the first president ial nominee who did not release his tax returns since 1976, and you remember his reason. Im being audited now. Im under a routine audit. A minor audit. Every year i have a routine audit. Its under routine audit. Like routine. But, but, as soon as my routine audits finished, ill release my returns. Im be very proud to. And of course most of the news media fell for the audit excuse. But there was never any evidence at all that Donald Trumps tax returns were actually being audited. Donald trump never produced an audit letter from the irs. Easy thing for him to do if he was being audited. If he wasnt being audited then, donald trump might be being audited now in the most serious review of his tax returns that he has ever been subjected to. Betsy woodruff is reporting in the daily beast tonight, special counsel bob mueller has teamed up with the irs accordi

What they might have asked, what he might have said all of it as the 11th hour gets under way. Good evening, once again from our nbc headquarters here in new york. Day 271 of the Trump Administration leaves the president choosing to keep gold star families in the middle of what become a nasty political conversation. And threatening an even ugler fight with a u. S. Senator who spent five plus years as a prisoner of war and tortured and injured for life. President trump was asked again about his false claim that president obama did not call the Service Members of u. S. Families killed in action. You want to clarify anything there . Theres nothing to clarify. Theyre just a bunch of fakers. So you ask me that question, and think for the most part theyve called every Family Member thats die immediate.

And more than 58,000 fell in defense of freedom. Their names now enshrined on a black granite wall not far from here. So to all our Vietnam Veterans who are gathered here in the midst of this 50th anniversary, i say thank you and welcome home. Im told one of those veterans has come to this ceremony almost every year. And is almost always introduced as he was today. But i dont think his story has ever been told. And i hope he wont mind too much if i tell it today. 36 years ago this march, a fi1s lieutenant in the United States army woke at dawn to a massive north vietnamese attack on the hilltop outpost. He and his brothers were heavily outnumbered. It took just minutes for the enemy to break through their defenses and fighting very quickly became hand to hand. History recorded in that moment tha
