At an elementary school found a plastic bin with a label that said pre-visiovisional ballots. she was concerned. we asked election officials here yesterday. they said that normally they take these boxes with equipment to all of the polling places and it takes them eight days to drop them off. they say it was equipment in there, dave and alison, and not ballots. you know, as of now, thats what we know. one minor point or i should say major point about the minutia because there is a lot we are hea...

I cant find it. the comebacker is, it could be a conspiracy charge. let me translate that. if money changes hands, people are being bribed, things like that, yeah, can it be a crime. its like saying somebody robbed a bank. its a crime. im being sarcastic. the fact of the matter is, collusion is an anti trust term. because -- >> trish: a wrong term. >> by the way, minor point, in reverse, the democrats tried to get -- they just say opposition research. its done all the time. >> and they paid for ...

To make $120,000 hush payment? >> joe, its the exact right question and cohens finances are the biggest mystery here. how could he make 30 or $40 million in a real estate flip and be hankering after 100 grand on a home equity loan some years later. it doesnt actually add up and raises the questions that i believe are at the heart of the investigation to cohen, whose money was that really? whose transactions are those? who purchased those apartments from which he made on paper the millions of mil...

The law here, the versions of the story put out by the president, by his lawyer, and by his other people, what judgment will a judge make about the purpose of these payments, do you think? >> well, the problem with the giuliani defense is not that its not legitimate, its just that the facts dont fit neatly. in fact the department of justice showed with john edwards that simply claiming that these payments would be made irrespectively is not an absolute defense. the problem, of course, is the del...

Possibilities. if this retainer exists, theres probably other payments. >> thats correct. the problem right from the beginning is that there is no coherent theory that mr. giuliani articulated. i think professor turley was indicating, theres an argument he might make but the reimbursement has nothing to do with it. it doesnt cure the violation in any way whatsoever. why are they putting this forward so aggressively? the answer may be that this payment to mr. cohen may take place in the context o...

What youre saying about setting up a lanny davis-like operation outside the white house. the other thing, a more general point, but he creates his own dramas, right? so he says something. he electively challenges some cultural convention then gets mad when people like us talk about it. its the self defeating cycle. and it doesnt -- we used to say it doesnt have to be this way. maybe it just does. maybe theres no capacity to learn or grow. >> they have tried to do exactly what youre talking about...

>> so, mika, first of all, its important for us at this point to blow up a lie that donald trump and rudy giuliani keep spitting out there and giuliani keeps saying, oh, this would have been paid any way. even if there werent a presidential election this would have been paid any way. it bears repeating that donald trump and stormy daniels got together at least met allegedly had an affair in 2006. got it? >> right. >> 2006. they end up paying her off a week before the election. >> i know. >> ten ...

On borders. you look at the borders, that i dont want the wall but well get the wall. even if we have to think about closing up the country for a while, well get the wall, we have no moisturize. >> so once again donald trump threatening to shut down the government over the wall and then again you have rudy giuliani going out there. talk about the rising level of anxiety among republican house members. >> theres certainly a lot of anxiety and heidi was right about the west virginia primary on tue...
