Page 166 - Assertions News Today

Overran tweets when facts overwhelm bald assertions. presidential tweets, however provocative, eventually disappear into the ether. tuesdays convictions could send two people close with president trump to prison for several years. one brought the investigation to the door of the white house. >> i concur. i was here during the 4:00 hour with nicolle today. >> present at the creation. >> he woo felt like we were on the wrong end of an artillery barrage of news with a few hours to think about it, t...

Welcome back. im brooke baldwin. moments ago, president trump declined to answer questions on why he revoked the security clearance of former cia chief john brennan. >> lets go! lets go! make your way out! were finished! were finished! lets go. >> well, a new report reveals it had to do with the russia investigation. this coming from the president himself. "the wall street journal" asked him about his move against brennan and these nine others, whose clearances are now under review. and the pres...

Previous assertions. and then disappearing. >> it seems like one of those idiots in the nba games behind the basket waving those stupid things. is that all he is, joyce? >> he really is. he is a distraction for people from whatever the drama is for the day with trump. i dont mean omarosa, i mean the evidence that is beginning to amass. throwing up distractions saying it is a witch hunt and you cant trust bob mueller. when in fact you know that is not true. but that is his role. >> joyce, did you...

Strategy than a legal argument. lawyers owe a duty of candor to the court. if rudy was saying this stuff in a courtroom, contradicting himself on the facts, he would have problems with the state bar at that point. >> lets go through a couple of points. i will do it with betsy. he says this will be over in a week or two that was in april. he says they did talk about giving flynn a break. and then a month later, he says it never happens. but then the tapes exist. and he knows we can show the tapes...

Billion in 2008 with the government bailout, not to mention that warren buffett bailed them out -- >> im sorry. hold on. theres a -- hold on. theres a lot of assertions you just made about bailouts. im not sure what you are talking about warren buffett bailing who out? >> harley-davidson. he was criticized. had he not accepted the payment back, it would have been one of the most lucrative deals he made. >> im unfamiliar with that. getting to the substance, this is a regulatory filing where harle...

Is. there is something to be said about the reporting and speculating but here is the thing about om ma rarose. she said our president is in declining mental health 6789. >> saying we have to bow down to donald trump makes assertions less credible. look, its always a disgruntled employee who does this. we never had a book from a grunt l employ employee. if donald trump is declining mental health thats a serious issue but the source of this, omarosa is in my view so compromised by everything she ...

In berkeley. he had nothing to say in what happened at portland. we cant expect much from him from his tweets this morning or when they were given to find credibility in his assertions. >> andrea douglas, thank you. i hope you have a very peaceful day in charlottesville. >> thank you. appreciate it. tonight, msnbc shares the story of a former white supremacist who has dedicated his life to reforming others now. we invite you to breaking hate at 9:00 p.m. eastern on msnbc. for you next, how hin...

Sleeve in front of these press conferences. they are statements and assertions to sarah sanders. >> mr. president, will you stop calling us the enemy of the people? will you stop calling the press the enemy of the people? the president of the united states should not refer to us is the enemy of the people and all im asking is for you to acknowledge that right here. all journalists should go on pennsylvania avenue and chant we are not the enemy of the people, because im tired of this. it is not r...

Really bad is donald trump, because these guys were running his campaign and they both from the evidence in the trial, whatever the conviction or acquittal is, they both appear to have been sleaze bags. he parked millions of dollars in foreign bank accounts outside the irs. he has not refuted that at the trial. his only hope is to say it was not intentional and therefore not a felony. gates has admitted to massive crimes including tax evasion, bank fraud and stealing from paul manafort. today it...

Foreign bank accounts outside the irs. he has not refuted that at the trial. his only hope is to say it was not intentional and therefore not a felony. gates has admitted to massive crimes including tax evasion, bank fraud and stealing from paul manafort. today it emerged he had a secret life, a mistress at a crash pad in london. it was an interesting trial, day in court today. manaforts lawyers did damage gates credibility, but they didnt challenge sort of the overall assertions that he made in...
