Tsirkin on the capitol hill, and our brian chungs here with me in new york, and with us, lindsey gorman, Senior Fellow for emerging technologies, alliance for securing democracy, and also Senior Adviser in the biden white house. Julie, this could be a rare bipartisan vote, why the urgency now and what does this bill do . Reporter yeah, its rare indeed, ana, every time we talk about, we talk about how things arent going well here on capitol hill. But here you have overwhelming support from republicans and democrats to pass forward this crackdown of tiktok essentially, this bill, as you laid out, would force the Parent Company of tiktok to divest to an american company, not only tiktok, this bill would force any app, any Company Owned by a foreign adversary to do the same or else tiktok is banned from the app store, from any platform here in the u. S. If that doesnt happen within six months here. Not everybody is on board, right, you did have a small percentage of young House Democrats h
Special counsel jack smith against donald trump. In an interview with cnn, maralago employee brian butler painting a painting a very specific picture of trumps inner circle, and how it operated more like a mafia family than anything else. With loyalty prized above everything. A world where fealty to the boss led to criminal exposure. Now, nbc news has not independently confirmed butlers identity as trump employee number 5 and he declined nbcs request for comment. In his interview last night, butler says he helped trumps codefendants, walt nowta and carlos move those boxes containing some of our nations most Sensitive National security secrets. Watch. He followed me. He pulled out, got behind me, got to the airport, i ended up loading all the luggage i had and he had a bunch of boxes. You noticed that he had boxes. Oh, yeah, they were the boxes that were in the indictment, the white bankers boxes. Thats what i remember. Did you have any idea at the time that there was potentially u. S.
Reached the number of delegates to secure the nomination. It happened on the very same night that President Joe Biden clinched the democratic nomination which means the stakes are set us before. As donald trump will be on the ballot, the 2024 election will not be defined by Big Policy Debates or disagreements between the two candidates and parties of which there are many, but rather by a very basic question whether or not we want our democracy to continue as we know it. Because donald trump has made it clear in public speeches and announcements he will take a Wrecking Ball to the rule of law, he will pardon the january 6th insurrectionists. And he will serve in his own words, this is a quote, a dictator on day one. Voters who go to the polls in a few months have to answer the question whether the 248year democratic experiment sees its birthday . That choice has been laid out in stark detail, voices not just on the left or center, but also the far right. Remember this, from liz cheney.
Minutes ago, my msnbc colleague Jonathan Capehart sat down for an interview with President Biden and asked him about of the israel hamas war. Play the clip, please. What is your redline with Prime Minister netanyahu, do you have a redline . For instance, would invasion of rafah be a redline . Im never going to leave israel. The defense of israel is critical. Theres no redline im going to cut off all weapons so they dont have the iron dome to protect them. But, theres redlines that if you cross, you cannot have 30,000 more palestinians dead. As a consequence of going after hamas, there are other ways to deal with, to get to with, with the trauma caused by hamas. The first time i went over, i sat with them and i sat with the war cabinet and is it dont make the mistake americanmade. America made a mistake. Jonathan capehart will have more of the interview in the next hour and we will get a reaction to this in a moment from congressman roy connor. And, presented by nan and donald trump are
Have missed. January 6th was a disgrace. American citizens attacked their own government. They used terrorism to try and stop us, specific piece of Domestic Business they did not like. Fellow americans beat and bloodied our own police. They stormed the center floor. They tried to hunt down the speaker of the house. They built a gallows and chanted about murdering the Vice President. They did this because they had been Fed Wild Falsehoods by the most powerful man on earth. Because he was angry and lost an election. Former President Trumps actions preceded the riot for a disgraceful, disgraceful dereliction of duty. Therefore, i am endorsing donald j. Trump. The one thing we cut off there, maybe its not fair is right after that, he broke into a rousing tune. Happy days are here again. It was like the 32 convention. I couldnt believe it. But yeah. A little discordant, song didnt go with the message. But you know, thats mitch. Mitch mcconnell there, that was in 2021. It was a month after j
