Or an attorney for one of these witnesses. what does that tell you? >> it tells me there is no loyalty to donald trump in that white house. it seems that almost everything that happens is leaked in some fashion. this is not like weve seen in the past administrations. certainly not in the obama administration. people are out there talking. probably to save their own hides. >> ashley, according to the report, chief of staff general john kelly was present for two of these incidents. one involving f...

Our members arent looking for something special. i want to make that clear. our members are looking for a level playing field and what president trump has done is hes given us a signal that he will level the playing field. weve tried to get democratic administrations, republican administrations to do this. and let me make another point about canada. canada has a trade deficit with the united states. the united states has sent more steel to canada than canada sent to the u.s. but next year canada...

A white house is that sometimes somebody has to tell the president what the president does not want to hear. now, that doesnt mean of course presidents get opposing point of views and people write articles and even books all the time about big disagreements over policy and administrations and even personal disagreements. but the point is that the -- president trump has raised this to another reality show art form. and yes, the way he describes it sounds more like the latest episode of the trump ...

Character. people havent heard from him in the last two decades but he has come into contact with a number of administrations by volunteering to open up these back channel discussions with elusive middle east leaders. the reason bob mueller has cared about him. the reason he came into contact with this investigation seems to be about two key meetings. one invofd jared kushner, steve bannon, it also involved the crowned prigs of abu dhabi. so this meeting was unmasks. it was mysterious as to why ...

I mean i dont think scaramucci would wait for permission to go on tv and call anybody makes like that, and he wouldnt stop if someone did tell him to. i think going on national television and criticizing the chief of staff, i think is extremely inappropriate. and hearing that the president is condoning it is even more so. look, i think general kellys doing a great job in terms of streamlining the information flow into the president, being more of a gatekeeper to the president and making sure tha...

And perhaps more white house staff turnover, this from a 30-year veteran of republican campaigns and administrations captures the mood of the day among republicans. quote, he is making losing the majority more likely by risking economic growth through higher prices and higher interest rates. hes creating the reality for his impeachment by the house. ouch. a good day to have four great reporters at the table. thats my inbox this morning, and thats only a little bit of it. is that hyperbole? is th...

Mueller understand the effort to influence key figures. nader stayed in contact with senior administration officials including bannon and kushner. nader kept a low profile but made inroads in administrations going back to to 1980s, often by volunteering to open lines of communications with leaders in the middle east. in the 80s and 90s people knew him as the editor of a magazine, and his unusual rolodex was packed with some of the most prominent leaders in the region. >> george could essentially...

I think that is somewhat problematic as you look at how the president sort of rights the ship into the 2018 midterm elections. >> lynn, the president says its not chaos, everything is running smoothly here. youve covered administrations before. does this look like a well oiled machine? >> oh, no, even though -- when president trump said that and when he even joked about -- he could joke about it but its not funny. you dont have these departures coming week after week in policy protests or in the...

April, the president again when hes talking about having ten people for every job, ten best people. also said the white house has tremendous energy. it has tremendous spirit. it is a great place to be working. you are there day in and day out. you talk to the people who work there. april, is that fair? is that what you see from the staff, tremendous energy, and spirit, great place to be working, is that how they feel? >> well, the white house, you know, no matter what administration is the white...

In that process dealing with daca and the other sins of the past. the president has been far more forward leaning on being willing to take care of the problems created by past administrations in return for going to a national system that makes sense and having enforce am. and every step of the way my state and my leadership and my state including the members of the majority in the assembly and senate have blocked it. that is the challenges you cannot have a state saying our state is supreme and ...
