get under his skin that his own running mate is not defending him. i m curious the kind of mood in trump world right now. you know, i have not heard that they re upset by governor pence s performance in any way or that they re worried that he might have upstaged donald trump. there was a lot of pushback to that reporting from the campaign. but what i can tell you was that before they were deciding on who was going to be donald trump s running mate, there was some concern about choosing somebody who would upstage donald trump, somebody like newt gingrich or chris christie who is more of a politician, a more practiced politician, bombastic politicians who know a lot more about policy than donald trump does. so there is precedent for that feeling, but i m not getting anything from the campaign about them feeling like governor pence did too good of a job last night. but what i do know is that ty want to get donald trump better prepared for this next debate coming up on sunday. i was ta
saw fairly recently at the white house when president trump announced judge neil gorsuch would be his pick to replace justice scalia. several people people will be in attendance whose family were killed from undocumented immigrants. at president trump s campaign rallies he d bring people on stage to talk about this with regard to immigration. this will be a discussion of potentially economic security, national security, and possibly immigration as we look ahead later in the week, ali, to the president revealing his revised travel ban. on friday remember, it will be a month that original ban has been tied up in court essentially since the stay was put on it. the president might talk about his budget, too, something a lot of members of congress are particularly interested in hearing. here s what he had to say when it came to what he would do with entitlement reform with cuts to medicaid and social security. listen. you have an omb director finally.

home and hillary clinton administration. indeed, he was one of the rare republicans there and the only, or one of the very few, populist conservatives. that s strange, since populist conservatism is the platform his boss ran on. like trumpet candidate, bannon was willing to criticize big republican donors in their ideological stranglehold in a corrupt g.o.p. establishment. he s able to break with orthodoxy and big and dramatic ways con for higher taxes, better infrastructure, fewer pointless wars around the world, and more. he understood that the country s greatest crisis isn t robert e lee statues but the steady economic and moral decline of its once robust middle-class. not surprisingly, traders on wall street cheered when he got fired this afternoon. the dow shut up 100 points on the news. lobbyists in washington will be celebrating late into the night. the funny thing is, that in some important ways, steve bannon was more traditionally liberal than the liberals who spent the last
that red flag is a warning to the beach-goers here, going into the water today is not a good idea. there are rip currents. there s building surf. so in that sense there is a growing indication of what is, indeed, coming. hurricane nate will be a category 1 possibly a category 2. that can cause people a false sense of security. not only here in alabama, but in new orleans, as we look in new orleans in and around the area, can you see folks have been getting sands bagging operationsnd way. that s because the city lies low. also there is an additional problem. the pumps of the 120 pumps there, more than a begin pumps if recent weeks have failed. when they fail the water can then cause flooding in certain areas. that s why in new orleans, there are now some mandatory evacuations in certain parts of the city t. power company spending the day yesterday as well as today making sure that the power lines are attended to.

amateur criminologists. remember that? the frenzy spun out of control. soon, liberals were not simply talking about a stolen election but about war, actual war. if russia is going toal keep attacking america, then america really should fight back. there is an entire buildingic in st. petersburg filled with a russian troll army creating thousands of tweets, memes, news sites comments and flat-out fake o stories designed not to take sides on any issue but just to get us fighting about it. hillary clinton spent overto a billion dollars on the campaign, and the russians beat her with 150 grand because they were able to turn facebook into fake book.bl tucker: so you are accusing a nuclear armed adversary of committing an act of war and you are doing it purely in order to gain an advantage in a domestic political dispute? no normal person would do that. it s too reckless and crazy.l

one year ago tonight, the trump white house started shedding its first high-ranking officials, just 24 days into the new administration. one year ago tonight, the departure of michael flynn, who has since fled plead guilty to lying to the fbi has has become a cooperating witness into the special counsel investigation into the russia attack. tonight one year on we bookend that achievement with the news in the new york times that the president s personal lawyer says when it came time to pay a porn star right before the election to say that she didn t have an affair with donald trump, he found $130,000 in his own pocket and he swears it didn t come out of the campaign or out of the trump organization. that does it for us tonight. we ll see you again tomorrow. now it s time for the last word with lawrence o donnell. good evening, lawrence. good evening, rachel. we have just stepped into john edwards territory. this is a third party making an expenditure for the benefit of the campa
the president of the united states with nobody but the special prosecutor and perhaps the president of the united states knows what he has been up to. the way the media has been playing it up. either the obama administration lost its security clearance or didn t get security clearance and that wasn t big news back then. i think we may see the end of jared and ivanka. this is not normal. let s be clear. it is not normal to have a public spat with the attorney general over his independence. i agree with what the president said. the president should be telling the attorney general what he wants done. they tell me they are worried about it because they say this

running the trump organization. it worked that way in the campaign and in the white house. people like gary cohn, one of his chief economic advisers, peter navarro, he would have them battle it out about tariffs. navarro s side ended in winning. that s also been trump s long-held view about tariffs. gary cohn later resigned, mostly because of that decision made by the president. but he is someone who, in our reporting, shows in recent weeks he s grown more and more frustrated with some of the advice from his straf. he s also grown more and more frustrated more of his staff is leaving, but at the same time, he feels a little liberated, he s been telling people close to him that he wants to trust his instincts, trust his gut. he thinks that s what won him the election in 2016 and that s what he waunnts to rely on more and more in the white house, and we re seeing that this week in particular, the decision on tariffs and the surprising decision on north korea. how much does that thri
