with kyrie irving s decision to not get vaccinated against covid-19. i just want kyrie to be around. i know sfuf will happen. it s just the situation that we re in. you know, kyrie made his decision what he wanted to do. he chose to do what he wanted to do and the team did the same. i want our whole team together. i want us to be at full strength. 134 sometimes it don t work out that way. it will workout for both parties. kyrie could still earn as much as $19 million without stepping foot on the court this season. since he s not vaccinated, kyrie can t play home games in new york, but he could have played the road games. and it s the nets decision to keep him out until he can play full time. so they re going to owe him roughly half of his salary, even though he s not going to end up playing. laura, that could all get resolved in three different ways. kyrie gets vaccinated which is unlikely at this point. the regulations change in new york. or the nets trade him. kyrie could play f
michael cohen now says, june of 2016, he now says in june of 2016 that he was communicating with the russians. that key meeting happens around the same time. he had previously said that his communications with the russians ended in january of 2016. so that summer meeting still very much a focus. look, i can tell you that no one truly knows for certain when bob mueller s investigation will wrap up and what exactly any element of it will be made public, but it would appear that he is nearing the end of that just given the developments that we ve seen. the bottom line, though, for michael cohen to completely now flip and be cooperating fully with the mueller investigation. meanwhile at a time when paul manafort, the president s previous campaign co-chairman is not cooperating, that s pretty interesting sfuf. let me switch gears from looking at the week that passed and look to the week ahead. special counsel facing at least
government trolls while doing their best to mess with the election for real. the sfuf is out there. they are trying. s an insurance commercial. but let s be honest, nobody likes dealing with insurance. which is why esurance hired me, dennis quaid, as their spokesperson because apparently, i m highly likable. see, they know it s confusing. i literally have no idea what i m getting, dennis quaid. that s why they re making it simple, man in cafe. and more affordable. thank you, dennis quaid. you re welcome. that s a prop apple. i d tell you more, but i only have 30 seconds. so here s a dramatic shot of their tagline so you ll remember it. esurance. it s surprisingly painless.
2017 global citizen festival. i m here with the human nears. you guys, this is a big gig. 60,000 people. everything is about eradicating global poverty out there. what made you guys want to come and do this show? for one, it s one of the few festivals that you can t pay to get in. you have to do this good deed. i think it s unique in the sense that you can t really buy your way in. you have to good deed your way in. is this something you ve ever done, anything like this before, and what do you expect. we ve played shows for causes and sfuf, but never on this global scale. this is definitely our first time on this massive scale. and the band was presented some statistics about water, unscreen sanitation, so this we ve never done anything like this on this big of a scale. and particularly now more than ever with the hurricanes in the caribbean, with the earthquake in mexico, when you watch the news, is it something like you feel like you can
frankly, in my opinion, should this ever pass, and that s another issue, both houses, the folks who are voting for this will pay for this at the polls. i don t understand what they re doing. they didn t try to come to the middle. they didn t try to reach out to democrats. they didn t try to build a bipartisan coalition. they moved this further to the right and are pushing this now through. so i m surprised at the outcome. i honestly don t know the answer to this question. do you talk to like new jersey members of the house on stuff like this? i mean you must work together on sfuf like medicaid and there s certain things you ve got to deliver for your state as a whole. do you have those conversations about what this would mean for new jersey for instance? yeah. i was actually very moved that a lot of new jersey congresspeople, republicans, turned against the last bill. i don t know how they re shaping up for this one.
