2016 campaign and russia, special counsel john durham released his findings yesterday, a 300-page report. and in it, durham, who was first appointed by that attorney general william barr in 2019, accuses the bureau of acting negligently but did not reveal any bombshells, as many republicans had long claimed he would. durham found no evidence the justice department and the fbi conspired in a deep state plot to investigate trump s ties to russia in 2016. in addition, durham did not recommend any wholesale changes at the fbi. the special counsel also appears to relitigate two of the cases he lost that went to trial, in which he brought criminal charges. the durham report has been contradicted by two of the reports, including one released in 2020 by the republican-led senate intelligence committee. the committee s report as well as one from the justice department watchdog found the fbi s investigation with some laws but warranted. and said the trump campaign closed a counter inte

welcome to inside politics. i m john king in washington. thank you for sharing this businbusy news day with us. the president called the latest debt ceil ing meeting productiv and a sign of good progress. but kevin mccarthy s morning after update is rather bleak. nowhere near a deal. this as the treasury begins checking how long agencies can pay their bills. plus legal quick sand for donald trump. his words at a cnn town hall push e. jean carroll to seek more damages and his instructions about how to handle classified documents end up in the hands of the special counsel. and swing voters dread the idea of a biden/trump rematch, but their focus group on what happened if there is one is quite revealing. the biden team arriving last yhour. they are now with the team behind closed doors. both sides say there s mgood faith, yet both sides also say there is little progress. this morning the speaker telling fellow house republicans the two sides are nowhere near agr agreement,
er good evening chris, book bans, just saying the phrase book bans. very understandable, doesn t seem to pull well, like so many things, desantis is overseeing the state of florida. it is a mystery to me how he does not think this is an absolute kryptonite in terms of a net national bay. more kryptonite, further goes on, i found the washington post finding that there are 11 people who are filing. okay, that s cancellation, 30 million. i think the rest of folks are like, i don t need to go through every book in the kids libra. please make me less involved. that s what i say. enough emails. anyway, that s one of another show. thank you, chris, as always. thanks to at-home for joining us this evening. today, for only the second time in american history, a former president appeared in court as a criminal defendant. the first time, last month. when donald trump is arraigned on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records. in the manhattan district attorney s case again
