Greetings from the great city of angels. Tonight, Hillary Clinton takes her turn at an economic sales pitch. She visited a suburb of detroit today to offer her rebuttal to Donald Trumps big speech on the economy from monday. We have heard many of the clinton proposals before. Her plan includes investing billions in ib f infrastructur spending, tuitionfree instate colleges and an exit tax for companies trying to move abroad. While Hillary Clinton spent some of her remarks trashing trumps proposals, a lot of what she did today was a more upbeat set of topics for the economy. We have urgent, important work to do and thats what im going to talk about today. Because all the people i have met throughout this campaign really prove how wrong this negative, pessimistic view is. Americas best days are still ahead of us if we make up our minds to actually go out and make that happen. Starting on day one, we will work with both parties to pass the biggest investment in new, goodpaying jobs since w
Hillary clinton goes to ohio today where shes been trailing in some polls although a new poll shows the race there even. But about last night. The two candidates were a little too close for comfort both on the seating chart and where their jokes landed. At the annual Al Smith Charity Dinner in new york city. As is tradition, the candidates traded jokes and jabs but as is tradition for this election cycle it was mostly jabs. Some were funny. Some were kind of not. Some may have gone a little too far. You be the judge. Hillary accidentally bumped into me and she very civilly said pardon me. And i very politely replied let me talk to you about that after i get into office. People look at the statue of liberty and they see a proud symbol of our history as a nation of immigrants, a beacon of hope for people around the world. Donald looks at the statue of liberty and sees a 4. Maybe a 5 if she loses the torch and tablet and changes her hair. Hold your laughs, your boos, your judgment. Lets f
Mean for the future of american politics. We begin with a look at how far from the very beginning of this race that donald trump defied all of the laws of political gravity. Take a look. Top republican operatives were laughing at trumps flirtation with running. On a scale of 1 to 10, how close are you to running for president . Much more than five. He said he is serious about running for president in 2016. Its peanuts time as far as im concerned. Lucy is promising Charlie Brown she wont drop the football. Until donald trump releases that full government disclosure form, its hard to take him seriously. If he doesnt, todays declaration means nothing. Did the donald go too far . Taking aim ats en tor john mccains war record. Nearly every republican in the race pouncing. One demanding trump dropout. Lindsey graham called his opponent a jackass. Iowas largest newspaper calling for him to dropout of the race. I would be totally committed unless i think im not going to win. I cant see him com
She relayed serious concerns. Yates isnt just saying this to cnn. Shes going to testify about it next week. It is a major statement. Tonight it is at odds with what the white house said happened. Sean spicer describing her warning as a headsup. But was it just a headsup or was it a forceful warning ignored. The Senate Intelligence committee went to cia headquarters on the briefing on the russia investigation. Pamela brown is out front tonight with the breaking news. What are you learning, pamela .

Starts right now. Good evening, im katy tur in for chuck todd in new york. Days after strikes on the syrian air field, americas role in the region remains unclear. U. N. Ambassador nikki haley said regime change should be on the way. Here she is with our own chuck todd on sundays meet the press. In no way do we so peace in the area with russian covering up for assad and no way do we see peace in the area with assad as the head of the seeyrian government. Uprooting assad didnt sneak up with tillersons statements. While sis sis is in focus, assads fate is not defined. The strategy in syria, our priority is first the defeat of isis, then we hope to turn our attention to achieving ceasefire agreements between the regime and opposition forces. We are hopeful that w can work with russia and use their influence to achieve areas of stabilization throughout syria and it is through that political process that we believe the Syrian People will be able to decide the fate of Bashar Al Assad.
