Thats what i did and invariably it hit states like new york and new jersey. >> the fact remains that the democrats are arguing. but it is suggest that whatever trump is for, they are against. >> i think thats actually a distortion. had they been in charge of congress would have been legislation that would have indeed lower tax rates for middle-class and most wage earners and increased or kept current the rates for wealthy people >> im not criticizing you for that, i get it. but you are not ackno...

Russians, they would have used it. >> and now investigators are turning up clues suggesting that information may have been exchanged between trump advisers and russian conspirators. it seems as if the denials are morphing into justifications to such an extent that what the presidents legal team seems to be arguing is that breaking the law isnt a crime -- at least not when hillary clinton is your opponent. they werent arguing that back then but now they feel like they have to bring that in now. t...

Davis to be his lawyer. he has been all over television this week arguing in defense of cohen, being combative to the president. lanny defense is a veteran democratic operative, very close to the clintons for many years. he was even in the bill clinton white house. this is being seen as a sign of sort of cohen leaving the trump political orbit and going out on his own. there is really open warfare right now between the president and his former attorney. i think the biggest piece of news in the s...

A huge push since the helsinki summ summit. step up sanctions against the people indicted in muellers last indictment and to make sure the sanctions already on the books are imposed. theres been a tension point between the defense secretary james mattis and congress about this for months because hes saying, if we want to be able to pull countries out of russias orbit, we have to be able to do business with them on the defense side. if they have connections to the russian defense apparatus, well ...
