At a meeting but not -- sorry, at a dinner. later that evening at the g20. and what sounds unusual to me is just an observer, is that only putins translator was involved in that discussion? no u.s. officials involved in that other than trump. and that white house didnt disclose the meeting or give a read-out about it. is that just strange or is that worrying? >> it is absolutely worrying. if it were, as ian said at the top of your hour, if it was a five or ten minute pull-aside, that happens all...

Information that president trump has, that mccains recovery is going at least as publicly reported. i think those are the two bits of news. the rest of the briefing earlier today was really focused on sean spicer reverting back to the earlier trump defense and the don jr. defense. >> why would he do that? i listened -- sean is one of the most tragic figures in american political history, but why would he trot out the adoption story today? >> its mid july and youre asking me why questions about t...

Pandoras box for them. and i think theyre just trying to cope at this point. i think thats what were seeing here. >> and, rebecca, it seems to the outside observer that you get a massive case of political malpractice over at the white house and theyve had opportunity after opportunity to get everything out on the table, even in the context of the don junior story, theyve gone through five -- four or five different stories on this. nobody in this town would advise them to carry this out in this f...

But, look, i think that you can never know for sure, because of the way that the unorthodox manner the trump administration runs. but that would be my conclusion, i would think, as an observer. >> you made a fascinating point id love for you to expand on. the only source through which we have been told that nothing came of this meeting, lets put the intent aside, despite the critical importance of the intent. the only person we know that from is from donald trump jr.s statement. nothing else tel...

Their policy toward russia has been consistent for two years. >> weak, soft, an it seems like something else is going on. thats the consistent policy. >> well, we have in the next hour, coming up, congressman adam schiff, and there was one quote that just jumped out at me during keir simmons going through the interview, and he is still sifting through the interview, but the woman, the lawyer says to keir simmons, they were looking for information. they wanted it so badly. >> yes. i heard that. >...

Embarrassed? >> i dont even know what that means. >> her idea of a russian reset and president trump sitting down with president putin -- >> i dont get it. >> trying to find how these two countries can work together is a very positive development. >> on cyber security? you think working with russia on cyber security of our election is a good idea? >> no. here is what i -- no. here is what i think. >> you just said that. >> these men meeting for two hours and 15 minutes on any broad range of issu...

Within the family. there was a moment with the first lady, melania trump, who was sitting right next to, and theres the picture there, sitting right next to, coincidentally, was it? how did this happen? vladimir putin at dinner. apparently both do speak german and we know that, you know, putin has spoken german with the german chancellor. how theyve communicated. has this been crafted, perhaps, in some way by the white house, that this is advantageous for the president to have his wife, the capa...

Keeps making this claim about the dnc not coordinating. it is not even a true claim. the dnc said multiple times, by the time they were contacted by the department of homeland security, itd already been rectified. this isnt everyone -- this is one of these things that donald trump made up and people keep repeating. separate from that, as john podesta pointed out, he didnt work at the dnc. >> robbie, youre more than a casual observer and had more than a casual relationship with this. want to get ...

Israel as the oppressor. >> while the palestinians hadnt by 1974 got the palestinian liberation that they were seeking, theyd certainly put themselves on the agenda at a very high level indeed, and this had happened fast. >> in a historic vote today, the united nations general assembly supported the palestinian claim to statehood. and a second resolution also passed that would give the palestinian liberation organization a formal place at the u.n. as an observer.

Down their suspect. the fbi doesnt mention their printing dots in their charging documents, but once the intercept published this document on-line, for people who understand forensic tracking of documents and the dangers of leaking documents, those little yellow dots were an obvious thing to worry about because they were there on that document that the intercept published. they were there to be read by a trained observer on that document that the intercept published on-line. now let me show you ...
