Why is that . Is he couldnt ihe couldnting. He seems to be the person that makes donald trump the most nervous. All of those stay strong, he drnt wadidnt want to fire him. But i think that is looming out there. So you have this committee that is chaired by Jeff Sessions where the gentleman who was in charge of it recruits in papadopoulous and he is now actually also talking to at least the Senate Committees and probably to muellers team as well, you have this team that now seems to be kind of in low customer of the contacts with russia in addition to trump jr. , to kushner and others. Locust of russia in addition to trump jr. , to kushner and others. But carter page overnight is now saying that shortly after his trip to russia to meet with russian officials in july of
2016, which we now learn he did meet with russian high official, not Just University officials or whatever he was trying to say before, but shortly after the trip, he sentd an email to one aide describing insights he had.
The days top stories from around the world, from politics and money, to sports and pop culture. On matters that have nothing to do with the campaign. I think that even mr. Manafort as i read it had requested that there be no mention of his brief tenure at the Trump Campaign several years ago. This has nothing to do with collusion, russia, nothing to come with the Trump Campaign. Reporter the case centers around his past lobbying work for the pro Putin Ukranian government for which prosecutors say he received 60 million. The government alleges manafort hid millions and failed to pay taxes while still spending the money on real estate and luxury purchases, including homes in manhattan, virginia and the hamptons, expensive suits, and baseball tickets. And prosecutors will present hundreds of emails, photos and financial records to prove it. Prosecutors say manafort also lied to banks about his income to secure more than 20 million in loans. And this trial now underway, it is expected to l
Proudly claimed that he had a plan but was keeping it secret. Last night, though, he indicated his plan was to tell generals to come up with a plan. So did he ever really have his own plan . Thats just one of the issues on the table today. Lets go right now to senior white house jim acosta live for us at that event. What are you expecting, jim . I think what well hear from donald trump here is hes going to make this argument hes better suited to be Commander In Chief of the United States. We expect him to make these remarks here in the next half an hour or so. Hes going to talk about, as you mentioned, that plan to talk to his generals on the first day he takes the oath of office, to come up with a plan for defeating isis. It is something he talked about at an event in greenville, North Carolina last night. Heres what he had to say. So were going to convene my top generals and give them a simple instruction. They will have 30 days to submit to the oval office a plan for soundly and qui
Foundation has been fined for illegal activity when it made a political contribution to the Attorney General Of Florida at the time she was being asked by her constituents to investigate Trump University. Hillary clinton and her top aides knowingly destroyed evidence and covered up their actions. The big question now, are these attacks true . Did Hillary Clinton really destroy evidence . Did donald trump really pay off floridas ag . Cnns drew griffin did some digging on the claim. Reporter this story couldnt have come at a better time for the Clinton Campaign which is pushing back against all those pay to play allegations. Why its come up again is a fairly old story. I did this back in june. Is trump did have to pay a 2,500 fine to the irs for a 25,000 donation. The reason is, carol, it came from trumps foundation. Thats against the irs rules. Foundations cant give to Political Action committees. Its allowed the story to rekindle the allegations that trump essentially paid off the Atto
She got the kinds of questions and issues that donald trump didnt. I think she wants to make her case, both about the substance of what he says but also about his confidence to be the leader of this country. And before we dig into substantive issues, jeff, i just wanted to ask you about one thing. It did strike me that hillary clibten w e clinton was trying to joke with reporters. She was trying to sound like she was buddies with some of those reporters. I found that interesting. I dont think we have jeff zeleny i do have you, carol, if you can hear me. At the end of that news conference, she was getting a little bit playful with her press staff was trying to cut short the news conference. Andrea mitchell of nbc news had a question and that was the exchange you saw there with Secretary Clinton. But the question, in fact, was a very interesting and good one that elicited that response you saw at the end. I think the big takeaway from this, this is a brandnew moment in this campaign. She
