Names. im curious if we are going to see those who really aids and abets, if you will. >> certainly, thats a huge question from agencies to publicists, i think we are still seeing the fallout from there. there was the head of wme motion picture group and was put on leave amid allegations. i cant speak to the cia situation but i do know that the ceo of uta did issue a statement very early on in the process sort of just saying that sexual harassment was not tolerated among their employees or their...

Procedure for the russians. you have to remember in 2013 this is before obviously trump was a candidate. but nevertheless, he was what the russians i think would have considered an american oligarch, so somebody from their own world view somebody with money, somebody with power and somebody who you just never know one day what theyre going to end up being. that normally triggers the very low threshold for the fsb, which is is the internal russian intelligence service for the beginning of collect...

Again, youve run races down in alabama right now. do you think this will have an impact? >> i absolutely do think it will have an impact. but if you look at polling, judge roy moore in most polling is already at 51% with 9% undecided. so hes already pushed past that threshold. but i think while i couldnt disagree more with that tweet that you just read, not the flake tweet but the tweet before that, it does underscore how strong partisanship is in alabama. i mean alabama is one of those states, ...

Day what theyll end up being. that triggers low threshold for fsb, internal russian intelligence service, beginning of collecting all sorts of information, anything to get their hands on or set up that could be used in compromising situation in the future. if not donald trump, i dont know how many senior american billionaires came through at that time, all would have had this type of collection. very aggressive. been doing it since lenins time. very good at it and would have been routine. >> jef...

And jeremy peters of "the new york times" whos also an msnbc contributor. imagine, on, that garys not so upset about it. after all, he came from goldman sachs. what did you make of that answer and how it differed from what he originally had said? >> well, the administration, katie, throughout this process, has been contorting itself to say that this is a cut for the middle class. there are some cuts for the middle class. and some tax increases. but those are small compared to the benefits for th...

Senate, brooke, how many times have we sat and looked they cant afford to lose more than 2. because many of the things they are trying to do on republican votes only on 50 vote threshold. so if indeed democrats were able to pull out a victory in alabama, that means you cant lose more than one vote on a given issue. it becomes prob mat particular math. no doubt about that. but in the larger picture, lets look at the context this is taking place. on tuesday night we saw sweeping democratic victori...

It keeps things like the mortgage reduction, adoption tax credit. it keeps the estate tax. although it doubles the threshold at which it would apply t still gets rid of the alternative minimum tax. it doubles the child tax credit and some other things that the house tax bill does. this looks more like a cut and less like a big reform. on the corporate side a couple of interesting things, too. the most interesting is still an unsolved part of it. when they cut the corporate tax rate to 20%. this ...
