good evening from new york. i m chris hayes. one day before president trump s former campaign manager is going to stand trial in federal court for money laundering and bank fraud in relation to his work for a pro-russian political party in ukraine and one day after the president went on possibly his most aggressive twitter rant yet about the mueller investigation, which he called the operation an illegal scam, trump s lawyer, rudy giuliani, was out today wildly, desperately spinning to try to accomplish two very specific things. one, move the goalposts to say that collusion is not a crime, and two, to get ahead of the emerging storyline of a trump campaign strategy meeting that maybe occurred two days before the infamous trump tower meeting that had promised dirt on hillary clinton. in two interviews this morning, interviews that were often confusing, bewildering, and in which giuliani often seemed confused, one goal of mr. giuliani was pretty evident. Chris Hayes discusses th ....
Kate Bolduan gives a fresh take on today s top stories. letting him ask about obstruction but doing so in written answers and limiting in-person questions to questions that dealt with things that events that happened before president trump was inaugurated, focus on the potential collusion questions and nothing about obstruction of justice. all of these debates over whether they will sit down are going on while giuliani is saying president trump does want to sit down with him, he is expressing interest. it s the legal team that has the reservations about that. this is happening while the president is continuing to lash out at the special counsel. that s because the president believes he can sway public opinion to agree with him that this is a witch hunt and be on board this investigation has gone on too long, that it s a witch hunt. whether or not that pans out is up to the president s twitter feed and whether he can convince his supporters. stand by to stand by. great to see ....

[cheers and applause] i want to clarify, i m not an actor. i lie for a living. however, it s been a while. and maybe it s time. how dare he say the things he does? of course i want to punch him in the face. right. [cheers and applause] the press always asked me don t i wish i were debating him? no, i wish we were in high school and i could take him behind the gym? that s what i wish. sean: so where is the fear, the worry, the concern about all of this rhetoric against the president?t? now do you think what you just saw is a littl ....
A news and interview program, anchored by Erin Burnett. latest offer for an interview in the russia investigation. and tonight the washington post is reporting mueller s most recent offer would cut the number of questions to the president in the interview about obstruction of justice by nearly half. cutting it by nearly half is not good enough for the president. obstruction in any form is something team trump has been very clear is a nonstarter. you said what the president would be willing to sit down sort of figure out in the area of collusion, not obstruction. meaning he would answer questions about collusion, not obstruction or vice versa? no, collusion, not obstruction. so, very clear, right? not obstruction. collusion okay, not obstruction. the fact that obstruction is still part of the interview appears to be setting the president off. he tweeted, this is a terrible situation and attorney jeff sessions should stop this rigged witch hunt right now before it st ....
The latest political developments of the day and interviews with top newsmakers are featured. we re not doing enough. look at these five people. here s the thing, john. there is a whole cottage industry of distraction folks. this is a distraction from x or distraction from mueller. i m not sure that was the case because there are a lot of fires happening now around this administration. the robert mueller, paul manafort, special counsel, jeff sessions fire series is one of them. there is also the election en r interference fire, big deal. i had conversations with folks on the other side of folks on capitol hill, both parties. one consistent theme i heard in relation to election interference, leadership starts at the top. i asked point blank, who do you talk to in the white house, who do you talk to in the administration? nobody, we don t know who the point person is, we don t know what their strategy is. this is somebody who is at a high level over there. this seemed to be a wa ....
