Withdrawal and just three weeks from the 20th anniversary of 9/11. soon, we ll reflect on the contribution of 2,443 americans who died fighting in afghanistan and the more than 20,000 injured there. was their sacrifice all in vain? no way. just justice demanded a response after 19 hijackers unleashed an unprovoked attack that killed 3,000 incident americans. the united states was wholly justified in hunting down those responsible and their enablers. that s why we went to afghanistan, and the men and women who answered their nation s call were responding to a noble purpose. to the extent mistakes were made and there were that doesn t bear on the sacrifice and service of those with boots on the ground. it wasn t they too decided instead of a law enforcement, focused sniper approach going only after those who caused 9/11, instead, we would end up responding with a proverbial shotgun blast. in this country, we have ....
You into the genesis of this weird conspiracy. it suggests that it was promoted by paul manafort, his campaign chairman. one of paul manafort s long-time associates, constantin kilimnik, who the fbi believed has ties to russian intelligence services are it seems this conspiracy was cooked up in the summer of 2016, right as the campaign is heating up, as the first documents begin to come out. you see manafort, kilimnik, and general mike flynn, begin to tell the president, we don t believe this is russia, we believe this is probably ukraine. do they care if it s true? hard to tell. our documents are reporting doesn t bear that out at the moment. it does seem they are acting in bad faith. there is quite a lot of evidence, at least some of like michael flynn, the intelligence services of the united states believe this is a russian hack. it s clear to us that he is attempting to shape that narrative to fit something that the trump campaign can use. why would it help them that much d ....
Which brings his combined sentence so far to about 7 1/2 years. in court today manafort did what he had failed to do last week. he expressed regret for his actions. and we quote. i want to say to you now that i am sorry for what i ve done. i accept the responsibility for the acts that have caused me to be here today. i will be 70 years old in a few weeks. my wife is 66 years old. i am her primary caregiver. please let my wife and i be together. before pronouncing her sentence judge amy berman jackson noted the magnitude of his crimes, his lies to investigators in violation of his plea deal and his apparent lack of remorse. saying i m sorry i got caught is not an inspiring plea for leniency. she also criticized his legal team adding, the no-collusion refrain that runs through the entire defense memorandum is, similarly, unrelated to the matters at hand. the no-collusion mantra is simply a non sequitur that doesn t bear on the question of the appropriate sentence. again, that didn ....

Republican party. he just needs to split off a kind of hard-core chunk of it. and there s no solution to this that doesn t alienate someone that he needs. well, leon, i said you were wrong, look at the business. michelle says i m wrong, look at the cults. a final word from you for your thoughts? listen, i don t want to go so far as to call it a cult, but i think michelle is more or less right in what he s saying factually. i come at this from a different perspective. i covered the republican primary from the republican side. all i ll say is that i will believe any significant portion of donald trump s base is going to abandon him when i see it and not before. fair and well put and appreciate all the insights from across the spectrum here, michelle goldberg and leon wolf. still ahead, the 25th amendment talks swirling around the white house with michael wolff. well, i ve got a man here who was there when it all started. ....
