Sense to have an end of the world fight about needing american taxpayer money to build the wall when mexico is paying for the wall? even know, during the shut down overboarder wall funding, the president is claiming mexico is paying for the wall so u.s. taxpayers must pay for the wall. or the government gets it? we need to fund this wall that mexico is funding? i mean, this is the magical non-sense part that will be interesting to see if he goes to tonight. all right? there are these continued v...

Those points, thats a rational way to sc arkascare people into. these are the ones that i think are going to make tonight almost a surreal experience if he keeps going there because these are the falsehoods, these arent the ones that might be rationally persuasive if true. the thing that really sets the wall stuff apart is what i call his magical non-sense. its the stuff that betrays the fact that this really was all just invented to make people laugh and applaud at his rallies and now as chris ...

Sense but the assertion itself is false. another rational but false threat inflation lies is their assertion drugs are pouring into the country and a border wall once built would stop drugs from continuing to pour into the country. if you ask the dea, they will tell you the vast majority of drugs come through routes other than illegal crossings, they come through other forms of smuggling including through the mail from china. a big border wall stretching the length to the u.s. mexico border woul...

>> wow. >> this is when he was the chairman campaign in 2016. now this is a man weve talked about often. his name is constan tooen. they know who he is. they believe hes worked with russian intelligence. this is not information that the government probably wanted out there and paul manaforts attorneys wanted out there but they did not properly redact the information and reading this, it certainly jumped out at us and the other information in this court filing just details how paul manafort didnt...

Campaign chairman paul manafort had responded to accusations that manafort lied to special counsel investigators. joining us now for more is shim shimon porkupez and michael zelman. >> the lawyers are saying theyre not going to challenge because they believe he didnt lie, but theyre at a point now where theyre saying were not going to challenge these assertions. essentially well see what the judge here does, but it seems this now becomes a moot point. the other thing they did go through is how -...

This is all tied to a much larger money laundering and the m -- a whole host of other charges that were brought. this specificallyeralti relates assertions she had made in court documents. it turns out the information she put in court documents and the things she said and the documents she provided were actually drafted by the senior prosecutor in russia. in fact, they were not her own work, that, in fact, the claims that were contrary to what prosecutors filed here in new york were all supplied...

And bolton are both going to be getting on their separate middle east trips this coming few days. >> there was another controversial remark by the president about the cold war, v soviet invasion of afghanistan. >> russia used to be the soviet union. afghanistan made it russia. because they went bankrupt fighting in afghanistan. russia. but russia should be fighting. the reason russia was in afghanistan was because terrorists were going in to russia. they were right to be there. >> mieka, how ser...

Sarah palin or anyone accomplishes a big political task. >> i think rather than attempt to make nancy pelosi seem young, cool, and relevant again so they have to hype up this love fest, they do the same thing with hillary clinton. it didnt work. they are never going to have this love for republican women but i guess that just means that republican women, they dont need the hype. they are cool on their own. we know that nancy, elizabeth warren, hillary clinton they could certainly use it. so more...

Cabinet. so i dont think we really know if shanahans resume is going to be a plus or a minus in this regard. one thing that we do know is that several people in the last few days have been urging the president to reconsider his decision. senator graham, since we did thoe this over lunch yesterday, the prime minister of israel has made a similar plea, because withdrawing troops, even if it was logistically possible within the 30-day time period that was on the table originally was irresponsible a...

Federal prosecutor greg clemons. you have the presidents lawyer rudy giuliani making these assertions here. what evidence could there be as far as the president and rudy giuliani basing these claims on, and could these do more harm legally to the president? >> with respect to the text messages, frances? >> right. >> im not sure what is being mentioned there by the president. there doesnt seem to be any basis for alleging that there are these mysteriously missing text messages at this point. that...
