Government is showing these signs and it doesn t necessarily match the rhetoric of the president and so i think, you know, we haven t heard him specifically weigh in on these new sanctions. it will be it will be curious to see when he s asked about them if he feels the same way his government has in terms of making these new steps to punish russia for actions not just related to the russian meddling but it is also tied to the invasion of crimea and supplying assad of weapons in syria, so it s kind of a broader case of sanctions here. julian, the president has said, you know, no one has been tougher on russia, is this helping to exemplify that? well, i think he s being pushed into this position. i think he s hesitated. he s been resistant to sanctions even when his own party passed legislation calling for them. and i think now he is trying to be tougher. and i think this will at least give some credibility to the argument that he s doing something as opposed to just saying that. s ....
With pop doapadopoulos, he talk a russian professor who claimed he could find e-mails through the russians. then we also had of course the trump tower meeting where don jr. was promised dirt. it doesn t seem like schmitz actually got the goods he was looking for. cnn reported someone who had reviewed the e-mails said they thought he turned out to actually be fake and not authentic. julian, a lot of mysterious stuff, i guess. how dangerous is it for the president to have yet another person linked to him to also be wrapped up in this russian related endeavor? i m not sure how damaging this particular story is. i don t think it will be that shocking to many people that trump campaign advisers were looking for dirt on hillary clinton and vice versa. this is american politics 101. and this is the way in which politics is conducted. so it s really the source of the material that is, in some ways, ....
The most important. and here it seems it s from the dark web. it s not even true as opposed to coming directly from the russian government for example. so i m not sure this is any kind of game changing moment. and so, amy, you know, is this something where congress should be compelled to act? i think i mean, i agree with julian, i don t think it s a big moment here but it is another drop in this bucket that we re seeing of russia. you know, trump is really annoyed that this continues to dominate the headline, that this continues to loom over his white house, and so i think overall if you look at the big picture, it is sort of problematic for him in that it continues going and it adds just one more person and it shows the length to which russia or russia, you know, wanted to get in touch with these people around trump. and so that i think is the most problematic thing here. so the white house announced, you know, additional sanctions just, you know, changing subjects now on russ ....

Build and the president has been really deeply frustrated that, you know, there are these ties, that he keeps saying, you know, there was no collusion, but the fact of the matter is, every single day, there s something else that happens so there s another tie. so i think that this does this doesn t bode well for him when he s trying to do other things in the white house and the midterm elections are coming and republicans are kind of frustrated that this is still kind of looming over his white house. yes, i think all of that kind of contributes to this larger picture. amy parnes, julian, thank you. we re also following this breaking news story out of germany. three dead, 20 injured, after a delivery van plowed through a crowd. authorities are treating this incident as a deliberate attack. stay with us. y hour that you re idling in your car, you re sending about half a gallon of gasoline up in the air. that amounts to about 10 pounds of carbon dioxide every week ....
