Going to be a statement of import and even add more excitement and interest to the evening. David asman, liz claman, and kennedy are here. We know that Chris Christie was at trump tower presumably working on this speech with him, david, helping him get everything ready for tonight . The blowback from what he said offer the weekend and was Strong Enough for paul ryan and some people saying they would support trump and not going to. They realize they have to do something. As correct as donald trump might think in his mind he is, as convinced he is that nothing he said could be construed or should be construed as racist, the idea that there are so many people upset by this, is, i think, caused a big pow wow and partly responsible for the teleprompters. The Establishment Republicans with the Trump Campaign probably had a lot to do with what hes going to say. Liz, do you think he had to come out and speak to deflect attention away from comments he made. Or an attempt to steal the spotlight
Host front page of the Washington Post has this story. Robert costa reporting along with Philip Rucker and karen tumulty. Mitt romney is moving quickly to assemble the National Political network, calling former aides and donors over the weekend and in a single of his seriousness of the launching a president ial campaign. Romneys message is that he almost certainly will make what would be his third bid for the white house. His aggressive outreach comes as representative paul ryan, romneys 2012 Vice President ial running mate and the newly installed chairman of the house ways and Means Committee announced monday that he would not seek the presidency in 2016. Romneys activity indicates that his exploration of interest friday to a group of donors in new york was more than the release of a trial balloon. Instead, it was the start of a deliberative effort by the 2012 nominee to carve out space for himself in an emerging 2016 field, also likely to include former Florida Governor jeb bush, new
Concerned, as im sure you are, about the young people in detroit. We have heard our schools described as pipelines to prisons. One of the issues that people dont talk about but think about a lot in detroit are the scores of young people, they dont have jobs, we dont have the Recreational Centers we used to have, the training we used to have. What commitments can you give us now that, as mayor, you will make sure these young people have better opportunities for jobs, for recreation and for the future in detroit that you both say you want to create. Moderator mike. Duggan my turn . Well, i think it is absolutely the center question. There are many things i disagree with, but none more than the priorities he put on recreations and parks. He basically said parks and recreation are here, were just going to cut them off, and i think thats a terrible judgment because if we do not provide something for these young people to do, were just going to be hiring police down the road to catch them.

Aiding a foreign power, i think the answer has to be that law cannot get it done. If you have to show that a person is giving away classified information directly to benefit a single foreign power and thats pretty much what it does, where are we these days . P dont give it to a single foreign power, give it to everybody. Much more effective sort of thing. In the 1920s and 30s, the soviets recruited young british and to some degree american academics and students in the hopes they would rise to high government positions. I dont mean to attack the press in general, but if i were a soviet or chinese agent, i wouldnt recruit a government employee, id recruit a journalist. I mean, quite seriously. Or somebody who claimed to be a journalist and just what are the entrance levels to be declared a journalist in this environment . Any event, i to want to take a look for one second at something im sure you all looked at over the weekend, and that is section 798 of u. S. Code title 18. Im sure we
