Sean spicer was known to fill notebook after notebook at the white house. The practice dating back to his time at the rnc. Who knew that sean was so stood just . Where he reportedly filled black books emblazoned with the partys seal. One staffer saying theyll wish they had been nicer to spicer. He was in a lot of meetings. James, lets start with you. I am shocked. Never did i think sean spicer would be the kind of guy to keep copious notes. Especially given how much he flubbered and said i dont know at the podium. Why could these notes be so useful . The notes can be very useful to a prosecutor in a couple of ways. First of all, these are very important tools legally in a courtroom. Contemporaneous notes can be used for a variety of purposes including impeaching a witness who testifies inconsistently with those notes. They can be used for the recollection if that person is having difficulty remembering answers to particular questions. And then to the extent that memory deficit continues even after being refreshed with those notes, those notes can be introduced subsequently at trial. So these notes have significant import for the investigation in any future Court Proceeding that are undertaken. Practically speaking, any white collar attorney counseling mr. Spicer knows all that. So the practical consequences that if, not when, mr. Spicer is interviewed or provides testimony before a grand jury, he is going to be well advised to stay pretty closely to whats in those notes. Humor me of twhoos say hes telling the truth in his notebook . People have been known to tell tall tales in their journals. Tell the stoire the stories thee the truth. Thats certainly something the investigators will decide, how much reliance to put on those notes. But remember, former director mueller is relying not just on these notes but other documents, other Motor Vehicle documents, other records and interviews that are parts of this investigation. While the notebook is an important part, any prosecutor working on this will want to ensure theres corroboration before relying on it exclusively. Youve covered this for quite some time. Youve been watching this for a long time. Do you think this is his revenge . He was manipulated by his own boss and kicked to the curb. Hold. On he wasnt asked to do a hard job. This was seans dream job. He wasnt drafted and sent to vietnam. If he wants revenge, this is one way. I do think that more important to sean right now is avoiding getting a lawyer. Staying out of line of fire of if he can hand these over and say this is what and i know cooperate with mueller, it may save him some legal bills. And we know those Legal Business are mounting for a lot of people tied to the president. The president himself has the luxury of getting the donors in the rnc. Mueller wants documents spicers statements on comey. I want to share what sean spicer said before and after he was fired. Take a look at this. Is the president comfortable having an fbi director that gives out free passes serve during his administration . The president has confidence in the director. He made a derpation the fbi director had loss his confidence. The attorney general conoccurred with that and for that rep dags today on to the please agreed with their conclusions. Could the notebooks contradict what sean spicer said at the time to the media at the podium . We know the president undercut his own team, who monday, tuesday of that week, went throughout defending one reason for jim comey. And then he President Trump sat down with lester holt and ald totally different story. It is possible to the extent there were deliberations in the white house before sean spicers statement that reflected other reasoning for the firing, those would be included in the notebook. So i think it is something that mueller and his team will be interested in revealing. One point picking up on the comments. I think it is incould not seaabse, incould not seaable that it would be without the advice of an attorney. And i suspect he has retained an attorney general for that purpose or will be doing so shortly. I need to share what sean spicer said today in an interview. This blew my mind. Have you ever lied to the American People . I dont think so. You dont think so . Unequivocally you can say no . You want to find something . I have not knowingly done anything to do that, no. Im sorry. My children are both liars and sometimes they dont know. An answer like that, i the didnt know i lied. From the press secretary of the white house. Were going to accept that answer. I didnt know that i lied. Your word is your bond. Youre standing up representing the white house before the American People. That argument is going to fly . It depends on the example. Theres a long catalogue of things he said from the podium that he had to know werent trooflt starting with the crowd size and obama and the inauguration. But press secretaries are sometimes kept out of loop of the white house for just this reason so they can hear something different. Im sorry. When he was talking about voter fraud, he was referencing absolute nonsense that said there was some report out there. Pure nonsense. Theres a long list of statements that werent true but there were probably some that he was told were true that he was told internally. Lets get on the plane. Air force one. President trump and his team were flying home from berlin and thats when they concocted the story about don junior having the meeting with the russians about orphans. Why does bob mueller want the phone records . He wants those records as a starting point investigating who may have participated in crafting the statement that you just mentioned. Those phone records would demonstrate who was called, how frequently they were called, what the duration of those calls were, and would be a basis for further interviews on anyone on either end of those conversations of the. This is an extraordinary topic and it is not going anywhere. The president saying over and over, this is just an absolute ruse. I dont know. Im not a lawyer. We have to turn to another story, a key part of this russia probe. It is social media. We know the massive role it played in this election. Facebook saying it will turn over 3,000, did you hear that . Russia linked ads to congress. Mark zuckerberg announcing it after facebook came under serious fire for not doing enough to help the investigation. We will continue working with the government to understand the full extent of russian interference and we will do our part. Not only to ensure the integrity of free and Fair Elections around the world but also to give everyone a voice and to be a force for good in democracy everywhere. All right then. The top democrat on the Senate Intel Committee calling the move an important and absolutely necessary first step. So Mark Zuckerberg, not out of the hot seat just yet. And a bloomberg report that washington has facebook in its sights. The author of the new story on Mark Zuckerberg. Business weeks new story saying his fake news problem aint going away. Lets walk through this. Because facebook, before the campaign, if you went to cocktail parties, to events, they would say yes, were looking at becoming a media campaign. What we know is theyre not highly regulated. How culpable is facebook should getting paid in rubles, dont know who the ad buyer is. They were totally off base when immediately after the election with they said fake news didnt play any role and really tried to play down the role that it played. Its not as if the russians contacted somebody at facebook. They went online and went through an automated system. So Mark Zuckerberg talked about, that theyre going to try to figure something out. The whole company goes against the idea of any kind of human intervention. So it is not clear that facebook can get its arms around this problem. They can. In the Investment Banking industry there are regulations, rules known as know your client. You cant get paid from an anonymous source from another country. Thats a big nono. The regulations are coming without a doubt. And this small amount of ads that theyve turned over. 3,000 sounds like lot but it could be zraching surface. Senator warner says it is the tip of the iceberg. The other thing is we dont really know what will come out of bob muellers investigation. We think that he had a warrant. Theres the potential for a lot of ugliness. I think it is a matter of time before Congress Tries to take action. In the defense of the tech industry, wasnt regulated yet. The social media platforms have grown so quickly, regulation hasnt caught up with it. So is there wrongdoing . The government wants to know who, what, where, when and why, but there werent laws against these practices. I think at worst you could say they did nothing wrong. They are the room it happen. 2 billion users, facebook is the biggest Media Company to world has ever seen. It would be, i think, naive to think they wont get regulated at this time the point. Steve bannon spoke on it saying i the wouldnt have come aboard even for trump if i hadnt known they were building this massive facebook and trumper engine. It worked for they will. It did. And the Clinton Campaign knew it too. Thats a great point. The Clinton Campaign knew and it had a gazillion dollars. I think we look back on the election. Leaving aside this russian stuff. The role that social media played. Whether the targeting was appropriate or inappropriate. Was one of the big stories of this election. The Clinton Campaign may have known facebook was such a massive platform as well. But you can apply strategy and ethics or strategy and no ethics. In that quote, there was another quote that voter suppression. The Trump Campaign was trying to target the weak supporters and send them ads which would make they will not turn out. It possibly crosses the line into racism. I wouldnt say border line. I would say totally inappropriate. Pick up this weeks copy of business week. It is a good one. Were going live to mexico city. Weve been focusing on this for the last two and a half days. The dramatic and confusing scene outside a primary school. And jimmy kimmel doubling down. He made total about face. The mixed messages from the Trump Administration on north korea. Does he want to sanction them, talk to them or bomb them or all of the above .

Breaking news with time running out. Republicans reportedly making a play to buy a a vote on health care. Gop lawmakers are trying to get alaska senator Lisa Murkowski on board by revising a bill to bring big benefits to her state specifically. Senator graham is denying it as complete bs. Maneuvers like this could make or break the bill. Republicans can only afford to lose one more bill or it does go down. In the meantime, they are on a daily crusade to fight the plan. And jimmy kimmel back with new attacks. Look at this. He made a total about face which means he either doesnt understand his own bill or he lied to me. It is as simple as that. I dont want to turn this into a kanye and taylor swift type situation. When senator cassidy was on my show in may, he told me that he believed every American Family regardless of income should be able to get Quality Health care. And i believed he was sincere. Sadly the bill he unveiled last week senator Lindsey Graham indicates he was not sincere. It is biy by many accounts it i the worth haik bill. Can you imagine donald trump actually sitting down to read a Health Care Bill . It is like trying to imagine a dog doing your taxes. It doesnt compute. Jimmy kimmel is saying he lied. And as he class act who really cares about people and their health care. He doesnt lie. Lets bring in a man who doesnt lie. Michael steele. And heather. Senator murkowski said to nbc cameras, this. Are you ready to support it . Nope. Why not . Because i am doing the Due Diligence that i committed to doing. All right. Mr. Steele, how much pressure can republicans pout Lisa Murkowski . We know when ryan zinke tried to do that last time, she gave them heisman. She did. And i suspect theres a little of thatter heisman profile taking shape. Her government has come out against this legislation. He has recognized the impact that it will have on the people of alaska and it will be very hard for the senator from alaska to stand in opposition to her governor who was in his own Due Diligence, looked at this and said you get the short end of the stick. What does that say to all the other states that would be worse off after this bill is put this place . What deal are you going to cut with them . This is the ugly slippery slope that washington gets into. Get off the table. What will it take to make this go away . To have your vote, to do whatever. Thats what they dont like. Imagine what it will cost by the time they get to tennessee. Back to jimmy kimmel, we love to dismiss the hollywood elite. What do threatening . Theyre out of touch. In this case, is jim wrimy kimmn touch . For him this is personal. He had a baby born a heart condition. And he realized, what would happen if i was in this situation . For hillary clinton, the hollywood connection seemed to hurt her. Every american and every human being deserved the security to know if the enevery tabl happens, you get sick. That will lap to every person. That they dont to have lose their job, lose their home or go into bankruptcy. That is tenet at the heart of it. So when jimmy kimmel speaks with his child, i think that millions of americans, the 20 million americans who now have health care and didnt have it before the Affordable Care act, the rest of americans who have Better Health care plans because of the protections, are roogt for him and theyre worried for this government to recognize that we want our Health Care System to be more comprehensive, more coverage, and not be the opposite. What do you think . In this case, jimmy kimmel doesnt seem like out of touch hollywood elite. He seems to be in touch with issues that speak to the heart of the American People. Absolutely. Just because as he man of means and we think doesnt mean cant understand what his life would be like if he didnt. Thats a sobering moment for any individual. To put it in that box. You can dois because you have the coverage, the will to do it, doesnt mean his humanity dies on that hill of the no. His human the ant which he articulated very clearly. He made it clear. I know i can do this but im thinking about the folks who cant do this. And that resonates with a lot of people. The members, instead of listening to folks, are trying rush through a bill because they want to score a political point. They want to do all these things related to politics and not to the proper space of health care where you actually take the time. Do the regular order senator mccain talked about. So we can all appreciate the care that youll get when it is done. Theyre making long term sound decisions. I want to talk about what is in the bill. It includes coverage of preexisting conditions. But does the actual bill protect the 130 million americans with preexisting conditions . I turn to you. Access to coverage doesnt mean coverage. What it does is it goes right to the heart of the kinds of Consumer Protections and says she shouldnt be a national standard. It should devolve to the states to allow governors to erode that protection for preexisting conditions. It puts the 130 million americans who have preexisting conditions today at risk of happening to live in a state where their insurance commissioner will say, we dont need this kind of protection in the state. It puts many people at risk. It still cuts like trump care before, hundreds ofs about out of medicaid. It really is what could lead to, according to some reports, 32 million more people losing coverage over the next decade. Can i just really address that . As a former state official, as a Lieutenant Governor of my state and having to work with the governor on the budget, this idea that youre going to now send this bill to the states. In the short material, it works. Heres some money. What happens in 2026 . What happens down road . You think they wont opt out of those expenses . When theyre facing deficits or raising taxes on the citizens with an election ahead, that wont happen. If you think theyre thinking about 2026, god bless you. Theyre not. But governors are.
