Back previously saying that the president s response was adequate. just for perspective, though, i do want to point out the president has tweeted about the attack in new zealand twice. in contrast, he s tweeted out three times today about a fox news host who got in trouble last week for some of her rhetoric about islam. fred? and then, boris, what s behind the president going after the late senator john mccain on twitter today? right. well john mccain was one of the first americans to look at the steele dossier, that salacious compilation of information, some of which has been verified, that was collected during the 2016 election. the president frequently refers to it. he claims the russia investigation was launched because of this dossier, which is debatable at the very least. but the president went after john mccain. mccain has denied he shared that with journalists. but we recently learned that one of his aids had shared it with buzzfeed news. that s something that some stay ....
There is an issue like that, why not deliver a speech condemning it. you have seen the president stand up for liberties. the president is not a white supremacist. i m not sure how many times we have to say that. all of this happening while the president s focus, according to his twitter feed, is somewhere else. he s taking aim at the late senator john mccain just months after his death for his ties to the controversial russian dossier on trump and mccain s notably thumb s done vote on repealing obamacare. boris chan sasanchez with me no. it is remarkable that the acting chief of staff feels he needs to explicitly say the president is not a white supremacist. yeah, fred. and mulvaney was clearly annoyed by the question. it is one that has frequently plagued the white house. the criticism the president is receiving for the massacre in new zealand is for two reasons. first the president said he did ....

Is a stain on his legacy, including ken starr. he said that he didn t have anything to do with passing on the dossier to the fbi. and yet now we know he did. deeply disappointing. well, we ll see. that s what the evidence shows. you know, i want to keep saying don t rush to judgment, but that s what the evidence has to show and i m just saying i m very, very saddened by this. but john mccain was an american hero who did so much for the country, but this is unfortunately a very dark stain. well, the president, who has previously said that john mccain is not a war hero, took the opportunity to revisit this old spat between the two of them. he tweeted, quote, spreading the fake and totally discredited dossier is unfortunately a very dark stain against john mccain. he then goes on to say this. he had far worse stains than ....
Obvious. this president say tacking the european union, attacking nato, attacking france, and germany, britain, and australia, our closest allies, and hugging russia close is really a dream come true for the kremlin. and you know, as to the next election, anderson, this is essentially an open call for further russian intervention. vladimir putin has to know at this point that as long as he enter convenience in the u.s. election on the side of donald trump, this president will either lack the integrity or the guts to call him out on it. and so unfortunately, this makes us more vulnerable in 2018 2020 and 2018 than it did in 2016. yeah, it s truly it is a stunning day for america. congressman schiff i appreciate your time. coming up next, reaction from republicans, including senator john mccain who was just ....
