If nothing else is going to be done on a policy level. >> we come together as a whole. right now we have a non-for-profit organization called responders. we get multiple people together every day and hit the streets id set up sundown. we are trying our best to try to put an end to the gun violence, but every time i climb that ladder, we get knocked back down. it is a hard feeling. >> bill: your message as it is up to the citizens to help fix this. we have been reporting on death in chicago in ye...

Former colleague whos still currently at cia, and this person started his message with "what in the hell are we doing?" what in the hell are we doing? and he wasnt talking at a policy level. he wasnt talking about bilateral relations between moscow and washington. it was an existential question. an existential question that has to be on the mind of all of those or at least many of those who have dedicated their careers with little pay and even less recognition, risking in some cases life and lim...

What we understand is that mueller is looking into what he was saying privately at the time and what was the goal of those tweets. was it just he didnt like what his attorney general was doing on a policy level, or was it that he wanted to gain control of the russia investigation? was he attempting to obstruct that investigation through this public shaming of jeff sessions. >> you use a phrase state of mind, the special counsel is trying to figure out what the presidents state of mind was there....

Russia is not benign, at least russia under putin is not benign. they want to break up nato. they want to unravel the european union. they want to undermine american power and influence anywhere they can in the world. and most important of all for them, theyre trying to disrupt our political system. i have to say they were successful in that effort because of what they did. so i do think the administration, the trump administration was correct to send anti-tank weapons and other lethal defensive...

Last night he is mad that his attorney general couldnt get it over the top. it is so true. ive never seen anything like it. the health care process which was pulled off like a heist, it was pulled off like a heist where mitch mcconnell will sneak in and crack the vault and get health care out before anyone can catch them. while they are doing that, presenting the plan or saying why it was good, the president had no obvious interest in, nor understanding of what was happening at a policy level. h...

Over the top. ive never seen anything like it. it was pulled off like a heist where mitch mcconnell will sneak in and crack the vault and get health care out before anyone can catch them. presenting the plan or saying why it was good, the president had no obvious interest in, nor understanding of what was happening at a policy level. he was picking a fight with his attorney general who he clearly wants to fire. and egging on a knife fight between aides. this is what he was doing in the most monu...

If she testifies some of the things she said could be, quote, covered by the presidential communications privilege, and possibly the deliberative process privilege. said she then needed to check with the white house. can you translate that and is that a normal message from the department of justice to deliver in a situation like this is this. >> its normal, almost certainly true, because any acting attorney general is going to know things or have worked directly with the white house about things...

Speech was unbalanced and an anti-israel speech. the question is, how permanent of a separation between the united states and israel at a policy level does today represent versus donald trump is coming in in a few weeks and said everything will be different. will this just be a blip? >> its the end, steve, of years of a fairly acrimonious period in israeli-u.s. relations. the relationship between barack obama and benjamin netanyahu has been at times quite frankly poisonous. today we heard two ve...

About his familys involvement? >> it makes sense to some degree if hes grooming ivanka and other children to take over his business and be part of his business which he did. theyre not elected officials. and there is reports that jared kushner has been a close adviser during the campaign would maybe want to have white house clearances, this is unprecedented and doesnt make any sense, you know. theyre not part of his administration in an elected manner, and whether he can try to appoint them to s...
