Somehow that s going to do the trick, that s not the way it works. i would rather be the underdog. i think i run very well as the guy working harder than everybody, as the guy that s shaking the hands, that s answering the questions. i m showing up. love the guy who got so criticized for not interacting with anyone is now hitting her for not interacting, which she does. i mean they all are. they have to. i also think it is interesting that we re now at a point where desantis is framing himself as an underdog. that s the most interesting. you know, it wasn t that long ago that many thought that defense would be the top contender against trump, and now framing himself as an underdog here. he has tried to continue with this theme of, look, i am advocating for sort of trumpism, trump s policies but i m the better person to actually execute it. i don t know if saying that, you know, you are the best person to execute trumpism is an effective
Are expected to run. it is really disrupted my weekend and week. it is the same in scotland, with just five routes in action in the central belt. i feel like they are always on strike! yeah, it is annoying. annoying too if you had been planning to go by train to the test match at headingley in leeds. at london s paddington it was better news for travellers heading to the glastonbury music festival a few trains are leaving for somerset. these things happen, it is part of life, - logistics are never easy, so the whole theme of. glastonbury is positive vibes. it is clear many have avoided all the picket lines and disruption by working from home. at this small financial services firm in cheltenham, they are back to meeting clients on zoom. it is far from ideal, but we had to adapt to a lockdown, now it is strikes, that is the way
Veteran s 75th national convention. joining me now is nbc news chief white house correspondent hallie jackson. i don t know what to make of this. this is a very, very wide-ranging conversation the president had taken in the context of a number of tweets over the last 24 hours, some of which are about policy matters about the federal reserve. some of them on unusual things like greenland. what do you make of what s going on? reporter: i think there is, ali, a theme from the president. that is a theme of, as you said, pick your phrase west wind whiplash, mixed messages here from president trump because we heard him backtrack on several things that he s been talking about over the last couple of days. you can pick the topics, all two, three of them. the president has gone back and forth ever since those shootings on el paso and ohio about the issue of strengthening background checks nishinitially
Exoneration. it s been mentioned a couple of times, but i would just add this exclamation point. it is not the job of the prosecutor to exonerate. and holding up the books, here are the law books. and asking, where in the department of justice is the office of exoneration? i know it was a very powerful point that essentially, and unfortunately, bob mueller abused his authority as special counsel going outside what a prosecutor is supposed to say and do. it raises that question about who wrote this report. you know? who really authored this report? because robert mueller, obviously his name is on it. but that theme of, we did not exonerate the president, i would love to know more about the origins of who wanted to put that in this report and make sure it was there. boy, it s been the substance of a lot of headlines coming out of this whole thing. that s exactly right.
Unfortunately they have to leave the facility one day but that shifted so seeing you would change and they often return to where they came from. and you have to their old surroundings sitting in the city do is cut on your sleeve and only the ones who have learned to stand their ground will be able to stop falling back into the old ways schooling on you. i mean would be typical quick than that or you. are. was. here. it s goodbye to us and good night for the young offenders tomorrow the facility will continue its efforts to improve the boy s inside a theme of. for the world outside.
Here is your star witness. he s in an interesting location within the trial. it s mostly a paper case. i guess this means you ve got to end strong. you ve got to have a great closer and wrap it all up for the members of that jury. the most important thing you can do as a prosecutor when you re putting on a cooperating witness, you know they re going to take some damage. you know the defense is going to score some points on them. you have to be able to rally back with corroboration, independence evidence that backs up the corroborator, so you re not just saying to the jury, take this criminal s word for it. what we ve seen so far, the mueller team has done a great job of doing that. all the witnesses leading up to rick gates, the accountant, the bookkeeper, the vendors, have had a common theme of, man aenforcememanafort knew where every dollar went.
Holds up. now we have staff in south carolina. it s a diverse staff. he s been to historically black colleges. he s going to continue to focus there with younger african americans, working class african americans and i think we can close that gap there. want to ask you about one last thing. the senator introduced a bill that would end a bill on buying, selling, or growing marijuana. is that an appeal to the millennial vote or what? i think yes is the answer, it is an appeal to the millennial vote. but it s also part of his much broader theme of, we have to end mass incarceration. and overwhelmingly, the prisoners in our system, at every level are people of color who have gone in for non-violent crimes. and the cost of that in every way, to our communities, is overwhelming. the community i live in, southwest d.c., it just ruins the lives of entire families. so i think the notion that we have to have a different look at
Department, those who have worked in government say that s actually not so unusual. you can t have 200 or so ambassadors all reaching out to the secretary of state. where do you come down on this? well, i think an important issue here is the fact that the united states going into libya was at the initiation of both the president and secretary clinton. and you would have thought especially with how dangerous it was on the ground, how personal this initiation was to the secretary that she would have had hands on and a great understanding of what was occurring. i think that certainly is that distance is part of what s been highlighted and that certainly results in some of the risks. but this is all about national security. and of course hillary clinton s testifying on the very day that the president has vetoed the national defense authorization act. national security being sort of our theme of, you know, where is the administration, do they have a halfhearted attempt at foreign policy and military intervention? in libya there should have been a very strong post-gadhafi plan and clearly we see this cost american lives.

To talk about the fact that we re all implicated in structures and we re all trying to navigate them. but instead, it becomes a way to say, i know i m a good person, so i don t have to listen to this critique. so, again, this theme of, not listening and hearing and engaging at the level of change, with what african-american folks are actually saying about the system, seems to be an enduring threat in this problem. okay, so part of what i hear yo you saying, you re not quite saying it, nor did mr. coates, but there is, tanner, a little bit of, if you are white and writing about blackness, you can, which no one is saying you can t, it s not like the n-word, which you re just not allowed to do. but that many african-americans are going to read with a suspicion about your writing, they re going to begin with a suspicion about your goals, and that you perhaps as a white writer, even if you see yourself as part of the multi-racial coalition of progressivism, will be held to a standard because
