Complete direct control over the impeachment process, its up to you to begin it, and he knew that was true and kind of didnt want it to be true in that interview at that point. He sort of deflected it a little bit and he was very much on the same page rhetorically as Speaker Pelosi at the time sigh all those talking points, they disappeared rather quickly with jerry nadler and tonight, as i was listening to them with you, he increasingly sounds and he has for months now like a House Judiciary Committee who understands his place in history and how his work will be judged in history. Yeah, and its also, i mean, hes saying listen, everybody is focused on the semantics but this is happening. This is yes. This is underway and were proceeding yes on the grounds of whats in the Mueller Report. One of the things that was interesting to hear from him tonight is other nonMueller Report grounds on which they are considering articles of impeachment against the president right now. And its not all derived from mueller but a lot of obviously what they want to continue to investigate is and they have now got everything in place to get what they need including the testimony from the various witnesses but they are also steaming in a goal oriented way towards what they want to get done. All the ambiguity and all the discussion about this stuff is now moot. Its on. Its happening. Yeah, he basically said to me last week in a similar interview that this is it. This is the impeachment process underway. He clarified there is no bright line procedurely in the House Judiciary Committee that says today is an impeachment process and yesterday wasnt. Once they start moving in that direction and asking questions in that direction, it is as you said, it is on. Its on. Once the Committee Chairman says yes, were considering articles of impeachment and voting to recommend to remove him from office, we can stop arguing whether they will do this, right . And that makes jerry nadler the fourth chairman of the House Judiciary Committee in history who has said that. Wow. Yeah. Thanks, lawrence. Thank you. Well, in tonights episode of meet the freshman you will meet a freshman member of congress who is a married lesbian mother of four that took a house seat from a republican in a farming district in minnesota, a Congressional District donald trump won. If donald trump loses even just a few districts like that next year in the right states, he will lose his reelection campaign. And now donald trump is the worst thing that has happened to farmers in the lifetime of currently working American Farmers because of his trade war with china, a war that American Farmers are definitely losing. Congresswoman angie craig will join us at the end of this hour with what might be the key to defeating Donald Trumps reelection campaign. Last night at this hour we refused to show you the propaganda video recorded by the Trump White House during the president s visits to hospitals in dayton, ohio and el paso, texas. The news media was not allowed to see what donald trump was actually doing and saying in the hospitals and news media cameras were not allowed and video released today shows why no one should have shown the trump propaganda video yesterday, which was. Turned into a Trump Campaign commercial released on twitter yesterday. We have a slightly better and only slightly better idea of what happened inside those hospitalstwitter yesterday. What happened inside those hospitals because private video is beginning to emerge. Perhaps more will emerge. Its exactly the kind of obscenity you had every right to expect it to be when donald trump spoke in those hospitals. We see donald trump in el paso speaking to some of the heroes in that hospital, doctors, nurses and others who spent days and continue to spend days trying to save lives and he said not one word to them about what he would try to do to prevent another massacre from sending dozens and dozens of victims to their hospital. Instead, he lied to them about their own community. He insulted their intelligence and their dignity by lying to their faces about something they both know, they know is both a lie and they very much do not care about. The lie was about the size of the crowd, yes, the size of the crowd that donald trump attracted when he held a hatefueled Campaign Rally in el paso six months ago here is that lie. That was some crowd. Thank you. We had twice the number outside and then you had this crazy beto. Beto had 400 people in a parking lot. They said his crowd was wonderful. The laughing first lady and the laughing president. Laughing about the trump lies. What we said back then was that the El Paso Police department estimated that beto orourkes crowds between 10,000 and 15,000 people and everyone in that room yesterday knows that. They know that it was not 400 people. But most importantly, no one in that room except donald trump and the third mrs. Trump care about that crowd now. No one cares about that this week. No one cared about that in that hospital yesterday except donald trump and that is because Donald Trumps untreatable lifelong preversion is he appears to care about no human being other than himself and he makes that manifest in every public moment that requires a demonstration that he is capable of caring about other people. Capable of empathy. The white house propaganda video yesterday was designed to pretend that donald trump cares about other people. A report from cnn. Com says that according to an el Paso Hospital official, there was a general assessment there was an absence of empathy on trumps part during his visit to the hospital. The president s absence of empathy was also on full vivid display yesterday in his public torture of children. Every definition legal and otherwise of torture includes mental torture, none physical torture and that is what President Trump engaged in in mississippi yesterday on a grand scale while he was pretending to care about people being treated for gunshot wounds at a hospital in el paso where none, none of the patients still being treated at that hospital agreed to meet with the president of the United States, none of them. And so today, none of those patients have to regret that they agreed to meet with a man who was torturing children in mississippi while trying to meet with them in their hospital rooms for a photo op. Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested approximately 680 people working at their jobs at seven Food Processing plants in mississippi. None of the people who hired and employ those workers were arrested for the crime of employing those workers because this is of course republican Law Enforcement at work. This is trump Law Enforcement at work. Arrest just the workers, not the employers. Local reporters in mississippi did the work of covering the real news that donald trump created yesterday with those arrests. The Jackson Free Press in mississippi said children finished their first day of school with no parents to go home to tonight, babies and toddlers remain at daycare with no guardian to pick them up. A child vainly searched a workplace parking lot for missing parents. Alex love of wjtv in mississippi delivered the most Important Television reporting of the day yesterday in this country far more important than anything Television News was capable of capturing about the president s photo op visits to hospitals. Alex love and his video crew found the victims of Donald Trumps torture yesterday in forest, mississippi. These children, some who are just toddlers were relying on neighbors and strangers to pick them up outside their homes and drive them to a Fitness Center to keep them calm but many kids kept crying for mom and dad. [crying] fighting back tears, 11yearold magnolia expressed her devastation being alone without her dad. Government, please with your heart let my parents be with everybody else, please. Dont leave the childs with crying and everything. This came of i. C. E. Agents raided food plants across mississippi arresting 680 people believed to be in the country illegally. Those children left behind and families impacted by each raid stress their parents and friends are good people. I need my dad with me. [crying] my dad didnt do nothing. Hes not a criminal. That is torture. Torture. Every parent knows what were looking at when we see that girl shaking and unable to stop crying as she tells donald trump that her father is not a criminal. Every descent human being of any age, every child, everyone, any person whether they have children or not knows that is torture. They know what we just saw and that is a torture that will last throughout her childhood and the childhoods of the hundreds of children donald trump tortured yesterday. Alex love is reporting tonight that most of the parents arrested yesterday have been released and reunited with their children. Only most of them but even those reunited children will never go to sleep again safe in the knowledge their parents will be there when they wake up, the trump torture technique did not end with the return of these parents to their children today. Federal law and the army manuel defined torture this way. Torture is an act committed by a person under the color of law specifically intended to inflict severe physical or mental pain and suffering and yesterday while donald trump was flashing his empty soulless cosmetically enhanced smile in hospitals for a propaganda video, what he was really doing was exercising his physical control over people at their jobs in mississippi and inflicting real mental pain and offering as parents and inflicting severe mental pain and suffering on their children that is what the president of the United States was really doing yesterday and what he will, willfully do again. Torture. Leading off our discussion tonight, former senior ed a vie advisor to president obama and a member of the caucus and chief deputy of the House Democratic caucus. Congressman, i want to start with you and your reaction to what we saw in mississippi yesterday. Well, its terrible, and its everything you said. You know, i. C. E. Comes to us i serve on the appropriations committee. They came to us and told us that they do targeted enforcement. There was nothing targeted about that raid. They even pushed back when you mentioned the term raid but that is exactly what they did, and so they are carrying out the president s wishes to instill fear in the Latino Community, and it is shocking that on the very day that the president is in el paso that they move forward with this. So this is wrong. This is bad policy. We have said this time and time again but this is an agency that is calling the playbook that donald trump himself wrote to instill fear in our communities. And i want to once again praise the work of alex love and other reporters in mississippi today that brought us the real images, photograph, video, real print reporting what was really happening and the president of the United States was really doing yesterday and the most important person we heard from about that yesterday was that little girl telling us exactly what the president in effect was doing to her. Absolutely and, you know, this is a president who formed a policy on family separation which was designed to essentially torture as you said torture families or split children away from their parents in order to scare immigrants from coming to our country and scare them away from seeking asylum from the devastation they are seeing in their home countries, so its really part and parcel of that strategy, which is essentially the president of the United States has an immigration policy that is designed to torture, i mean, as you said, really victimize, victimize children, victimize families and that little girls voice was just like the children crying that we heard a few years ago at the height of the family separation policy. And it comes on a day where people are mourning the passage of the murder of 22 people in el paso who were killed precisely because of the president s racist rhetoric towards immigrants. So i mean, were seeing his rhetoric have impact on people and were seeing his policies have impact on children and, you know, essentially its devastating across the board. And congressman, the New York Daily News is reporting today that the Trump Administration tried to do Something Like this in new york city and failed. They are saying immigration and Customs Enforcement agents tried to enter a brooklyn homeless shelter tuesday night but were turned away after failing to produce a warrant said christine quinn, the shelter Networks Director and said the agents lied, they lied about having a search warrant. They declared that they did, they could not produce one. They had absolutely nothing to show, and the people working at that facility were ready for this, knew their legal rights, turned them away. I. C. E. Spokesman said we cannot confirm or deny because we cannot comment on Law Enforcement operations. The president s comments on Law Enforcementoperations, they tell us that every time we talk about these in our communities, we put peoples lives in danger yet the president goes on twitter and says exactly just that. That this is going to happen. So thankfully, there are individuals across this country who have been spreading the message that we need to know our rights and that our Community Needs to know our rights and that means unless they have a warrant signed by a judge, not just a phony piece of paper, that they should not open the door and so thats exactly what they should be doing. Weve seen them detain u. S. Citizens and it happened in my Community Across this country and we know that. We know that they will use any means necessary to instill fear. We know that is their focus. It is exactly what mira said, this is what the president wants them to do and so we encourage folks to continue to know their rights, to continue to become educated on these issues and to make sure that i. C. E. Does not demonize our communities. I want to localize this point what happens to american citizens. This is the Jackson Free Press reporting. There was a young man working there that protested the arrests because he was an american citizen. And they tased him, knocked him to the ground and put handcuffs on him before they finally figured out that he was an american citizen. That can happen to anyone american citizen or not. That was what was established in mississippi yesterday. I mean, what were seeing with these raids, what they are trying to do is not really just pick up undocumented immigrants unfortunately, they have tactics like a raid which are meant to instill fear, just like the family separation policy was meant to instill fear. And the strategy here is to scare undocumented immigrants and scare the Latino Community and its a violation of american principles and i hope after the events of this week we hear more just not on how do we protect ourselves from guns but how do we stop immigration tactics really meant to scare and create fear in families. Thank you both very much for starting off our discussion tonight. Really appreciate it. Thank you. Thank you. When we come back, thousands of pages of financial documents that donald trump and his family are trying to keep secret are now already in the hands of investigators with possibly much more to come. Thats next. And also coming up, a member of the House Judiciary Committee and house intelligence committee. Eric swalwell will join us. The weathers perfect.

Donald trump said i just watched a world class loser tim obryan i havent seen or spoken to in many years and knowing nothing about me except he wrote a failed hit piece book about me 15 years ago. Tim obryan wrote a successful book that included a dismantling of Donald Trumps claim he was a billionaire and lost his liable suit against tim obryan about that book. We invited tim obryan to discuss more information will be handed over as the banks continue to respond to subpoenas that sent in april and joining us is tim obrian, the executive editor of bloomberg nation and a former f
