We need to slow down and get it right. Like mom used to say, you rush and you make mistakes. Democrats are going to continue in their headlong rush to pass a government takeover of health care. From where i stand and frankly Many Republican senators stand who are troubled by the pace is of concern. We should have had more time to digest it. I guess history has a funny way of repeating itself. What a difference eight years doesnt make. Republicans today sounding a lot like republicans back in 2009 on Health Care Reform. Only this time, they are battling themselves. Can President Trump and House Speaker paul ryan bring their own party on board . This as one new report says at least 15 Million People, joe, will lose their Health Care Coverage under the new gop plan. This morning, we are going to speak live with the u. S. Secretary of health and Human Services dr. Tom price. Plus, the man responsible for whipping votes in the house, Republican Congressman Steve Scalise and congressman tim
Event and they were keeping it separate. With some prodding from the press, they decided to allow a few reporters in and one camera. Two hours later, they changed their minds. So theres no press inside this event right now. We have no idea what the president is saying to donors, and we likely wont find out unless one of the donors tells us. How much is the trump Hotel Getting paid to host this . I know you were asking some questions about that. Reporter thats a great question. We have no idea who is paying for this event tonight that the president is attending. We reached out for comment, and our requests have not been answered. So it could be the rnc. It could be the reelection campaign, and it could be that the hotel donated the space. We dont know. Is it normal for a president to hold a fund raiser for rhis reelection five months after taking office . President s obama and bush didnt
unprecedented and remarkable in and of itself. Put it all together and once again donald trump is so
Chris Matthews debates hot political issues with politicians, newsmakers and Washington leaders. Comes from giuliani, who attempted to downplay the criminal aspect of collusion with the russians. Rather than deny that collusion took place, he now today argued that collusion isnt illegal. Lets watch. Ive been sitting here looking in the federal code trying to find collusion as a crime. Its not. Collusion is not a crime. I dont even know if thats a crime, colluding about russians. You start analyzing the crime. The hacking is the crime. The hacking that certainly is the original the president didnt hack. Of course not. Thats he didnt pay them for hacking. Its so much fun. An apparent shift in strategy. Giuliani now appears to be saying that collusion is not so bad after all. You saw him there chuckling about it. And also 150e78d to undermined the credibility, however, of President Trumps frequent and categorical denials that there was no collusion. Which has been a familiar refrain from
Is his strategy working . I will ask Legendary Newsman carl bernstein, here to talk about the latest scoop on cohen v. Trump. Whats next for sinclair . Will the angry tweets affect the fccs decision . First, another chapter in the Me Too Movement brought to us once again by rowan farrow, out in print tomorrow is about les moonves and the culture of cbs. Its been eight months since charlie rose was fired from cbs this morning. And now the famed Broadcast Network is again having to report on itself. The New Yorker Magazine is reporting six women have accused cbs chairman and ceo Leslie Moonves of Sexual Harassment and cbs news chairman and current 60 minutes Executive Producer jeff fager allowed harassment. The story is about much more
than moonves, its about cbs as a whole, about how Major Media Companies are still having to reckon with the past about alleged abuse that happened in the past and, in some cases, not too long ago. These are issues that have to be addressed by cbs and by ot
Doh spicer. All right, so, the white house used to claim that the president s tweets are not just idle opinionating, theyre official statements with the power of the white house behind him. How many times have people working for the president said the president s tweet speaks for itself or words to that effect . Except for todays tweet. That apparently doesnt speak for itself. That needs a spokesperson and a tv lawyer speaking for it, sweeping up after it, quietly trying to wipe it off the bottom of their shoes. When the president of the United States says that one of his subordinates should do something and do it now, how is that just one guys opinion . It all smacks of another effort that was made recently to suggest that the president didnt really say what everyone heard him say. And a key sentence in my remarks, i said the word would instead of wouldnt. The sentence should have been, i dont see any reason why i wouldnt, or why it wouldnt be russia. Sort of a double negative.
