Trump news on Youtube Feb 6 2019

 President Donald Trump mispronounced Nepal and Bhutan as "Nipple" and "Button" in a White House meeting with intelligence officials — and noted incorrectly that they're both part of India, Time magazine's national security correspondent John Walcott told CNN's Brooke Baldwin on Monday

 "Wait, seriously? That's what he said?" asked a stunned Baldwin. "Seriously," responded Walcott, who raised the stumble as one more example of what he termed Trump's "ignorance

"   Walcott discussed his article Saturday in Time that said sources in the intelligence community are concerned that the president presents a national security risk because of his "willful ignorance" about international affairs and his refusal to listen to advice from his intelligence experts

 Walcott reported that "multiple" sources — including analysts who prepare the president's classified intelligence briefings and officials who present them — are also disturbed by Trump's apparent inability to concentrate on information

His focus fades even with colorful visual aids and shortened briefing points, and even when officials "repeat his name and title as frequently as possible," Walcott reported

 When Trump is presented with facts he does not agree with, he erupts in anger and goes his own way, according to Walcott's sources

   "The real underlying concern is what might happen if the nation is suddenly hit with a real national security crisis out of the blue," Walcott noted on CNN

"How will the president respond?" Will Trump "stop and listen and think about that response first — or again, will he simply react on instinct?" Walcott asked

 Several sources have told other reporters about Trump's apparent inability to focus and his anger when he disagrees with something he is told

 When former GOP House Speaker Paul Ryan attempted to explain heath care to Trump, the president wandered away and turned on a TV in the next room, according to a new book by former White House communications staff member Cliff Sims

 Trump's "Nipple" and "Button" goof-ups were previously reported in Politico. Sources said the president also pointed to India on a map he was shown and said he was aware that both nations he was attempting to refer to were part of India

 In a public speech to African leaders in the United Nations in 2017, the president referred twice to the nation of Namibia as "Nambia

"  Check out Walcott's interview above. He mentions the Nipple slip-up at 1:35. The rest of the interview is more troubling

Trump ignoring intelligence chiefs - Duration: 6:42.

>>> If somebody is looking to do

nuclear weapons or other things,

we are going to know it before

they do.

>> You are going to trust the

intelligence receive?

>> I am going to trust the

intelligence that they're

putting there.

My intelligence people if they

said in fact Iran is a wonderful

kindergarten, I disagree with

them 100%.

It is a vicious country that

kills many people.

>> Last week he called them

naive and said they should go

back to school.

President trump expressed doubt

in his intelligence officer in

an interview with CBS on super

bowl Sunday.

The president maintains, quote,

"Willful ignorance."

Two officers even reported to

"Time," they have been warned to

avoid giving the president

intelligence assessments that

contradicts stances he has taken

in public.

Joining me L.A. Times, Eli

stolkel and micca.

We know Donald Trump relies on

his own gut and he's saying he's

his best adviser.

He has been saying that since

the campaign and there is no

surprise he said it today.

When he talks about not trusting

his intelligence, officials in

any administration, he also

refers to weapons of mass

destruction and the selling of

the war in Iraq by the bush

administration.

He did it again with Margaret

Brennan yesterday.

"The Washington post"

points out

and at on this, Donald

Trump is cherry picking the

administration.

This is the evidence was not

flawed for wmds.

It was stretched by political

actoking for a convenience

narrative.

To say that he does not trust

the intelligence team because of

wmds is a little bit of a

stretch.

>> Absolutely.

He's getting it absolutely

backward as to how the Iraq war

happened and what happens with

the intelligence there.

They were reporting, they had

some doubts and the bush

administration including people

like the president and national

security adviser were trying to

down play those deaths to make

the case for war.

And they're still sitting in

front of the American people

telling them things, disagree

with what the president is

saying out there because they

are looking at the facts and the

ground.

>> Eli, according to

conversations you had with those

at the white house, is there a

call for concerns among Donald

Trump's own advisories?

>> Katy, there has been from the

start of this administration

whether it is national security

or people work in domestic

policy.

This president has always been

difficult for anyone to brief or

sort of bring over to seeing the

fact as they are.

He comes into a lot of meetings

with sort of a pre-set, set of

policy ideas that are in his

head and hard to get him off.

Some of them more grounded in

reality than others.

When you look here in that same

interview of Margaret Brennan,

he talks about he fired Mattis.

The reason Mattis left was not

because he got fired but he was

upset.

And trump's decision to withdraw

troops from Syria.

You see those kinds of naive

foreign policy decisions taken

place across the map.

The intelligence officer is

saying Iran is like a

kindergarten class.

Intelligence officer was telling

him that was the case.

He's setting this superficial

construct out there or in his

term as a bunch of killers and

the reality is a lot more

complicated than what the

president believed and what he's

presenting to the public.

>> A withdraw from Syria came up

from this interview, listen to

what he said whether we may need

to go back there.

>> Your intelligence chief that

you can see a resurgence of

I.C.E. And al-qaida.

>> We have fast airplanes and

cargo planes and we can come

back quickly.

>> Eli, is he serious?

>> I am not sure -- it is really

hard to know, Katy.

It does not sound like a serious

discussion of military policy

taking a commercial flight back

and forth at the ocean.

That's not the same way they're

looking at it.

The way the president talks

about this in such a cavalier

tone isrkable and

unprecedented for any commander

in chief.

This is Donald Trump, we have

seen him doing this for over two

years now.

People around him kind of take

it for granted that this is how

he's going to operate.

>> What do you think?

>> I think he has a real problem

understanding how military

campaigns actually work.

For all his time being chief and

not listening to his briefing,

the real hard work that's

necessary to defeat enemies in

the field.

The enemy gets a vote.

The president does not seem to

realize this if he can't

construct a reality that's to

his liking that's different from

the facts and the ground and

he's putting our military in a

terrible situation by making up

a story for himself that will

leave them without the resources

they need to really finish the

job.

>> It is very clear when he gets

into these interviews, he's not

coming with prepared talking

points.

He's saying whatever comes top

of mind.

He's talking about what he

believes rather than what he has

been advised.

These interviews, I know we have

been seeing them now for 2.5

Will Trump turn State of the Union unity talk into action? - Duration: 7:30.

JUDY WOODRUFF: And now some perspective on the run-up to tonight's big address from opposite

sides of the American political spectrum.

Karine Jean-Pierre is a senior adviser for MoveOn.org.

And Chris Buskirk is the editor of the conservative journal and Web site American Greatness.

Hello to both of you.

CHRIS BUSKIRK, AmericanGreatness.org: Hi.

KARINE JEAN-PIERRE, Democratic Strategist: Hi, Judy.

JUDY WOODRUFF: Great to have you back on the program.

Chris, to you first, Chris Buskirk.

What do you expect the president to do tonight?

CHRIS BUSKIRK: I think what the president is going to do tonight is, he is going to

do what he's done I think pretty well in some speeches before, which is going back to promises

made, promises kept.

Here's what I have talked about in my campaign, here's what I have accomplished so far, here's

what I still need to do.

I think that here we are halfway through first term, right?

This has got to be the pivot to reelection, to try to start to set the tone and set the

trajectory for a message that's going to carry him through November of 2020.

And I think that is -- I think that needs to be one big unifying theme that says, on

immigration, on trade, on foreign policy, how are all these things linked together?

What's that unifying theme?

And I think that that theme has to be, how do you rebuild the middle class?

That's number one.

And I think that that's what he is going to try and do.

JUDY WOODRUFF: And if that's what he does, Karine Jean-Pierre, how is that received by

Democrats?

KARINE JEAN-PIERRE: So, I know that it's been reported that -- from the administration,

from the White House, that the president is going to give a speech on unity, on greatness,

on bipartisanship.

And that would be great if he was able to do that, but we have not seen that from this

president in the past now going on three years.

And I just don't see this speech, only because of his history, of his record, being that

impactful.

So maybe, maybe he gets there and he makes a unity speech, but hours later, the moment

he gets on Twitter, it all -- he steps on it.

So I just -- it's hard to believe.

And let's not forget, a couple of weeks ago, he gave -- he addressed the country in the

Diplomatic Reception Room, where he talked about immigration, and that was filled with

division.

And then he did it weeks prior to that in the Oval Office behind the Resolute Desk.

And that was filled with division and hate.

So I just don't see how that's possible coming from this president.

JUDY WOODRUFF: And, in fact, Chris Buskirk, I had a chance today to spend a little bit

of -- a few minutes with Speaker Pelosi and the Senate minority leader, Chuck Schumer.

And Mr. Schumer made a point, Senator Schumer made a point of saying: We hope the president

is going to appeal the unity, but in the past, when he's spoken at a moment, whether it's

a State of the Union address or another important speech, he's made promises or made declarations

that he then turned around and didn't fulfill.

So what makes you convinced that tonight is going to be different?

CHRIS BUSKIRK: Well, I think part of that is in the eye of the beholder, right?

What is unity.

But there's part of it that is the art of persuasion, which is to talk about it and

to use the rhetoric of unity and to talk about, how do we be -- how are we Americans together?

What does that mean?

And how do we build things together, make this a better society?

How that translates into practice, I think, is where the president needs to be very concrete.

He needs to use that rhetoric and then say, look, these are the policies we are going

to pursue in my administration the try and make this a reality.

And that's what everybody is really looking for.

It's nice to hear the good speech, but then what are you going to do about it?

JUDY WOODRUFF: But you have a sense that now, Chris Buskirk, the president is prepared to

do that?

CHRIS BUSKIRK: I think he has to, and I think that's what he's going to try and do.

JUDY WOODRUFF: But, Karine, you're expressing doubt?

(LAUGHTER)

KARINE JEAN-PIERRE: He just doesn't have a record of it, Judy.

We have not seen that.

A year ago, he talked about unity.

What did we get months later?

We got this the zero -- policy situation, where children were being ripped away from

their parents, children of undocumented immigrants coming through the southern border.

And that was devastating to see.

And now we're hearing many of them will never be reunited.

And the year before that, in 2017, in the joint address, the same thing.

And what did we see?

We heard about Charlottesville.

And what did he do there?

He said, very fine people on both sides.

I just don't see it.

JUDY WOODRUFF: When you hear this, Chris Buskirk, what do you think?

CHRIS BUSKIRK: I think that unity does not mean agreement on everything.

And that's OK.

That's what politics is for.

I think what unity means is not that Donald Trump says, well, to Speaker Pelosi, well,

OK, whatever you want, that's fine.

I think what it means is, how do we identify the problems that the country faces, and then

how do we work together where there's agreement?

And then we can disagree on other things too, but let's do that in a way where we at least

try and set the table on common goals.

JUDY WOODRUFF: And I guess the flip side of that question, Karine Jean-Pierre, is, are

Democrats, are people like you who work hard with organizations that oppose so much of

the president's policies, are you willing to give the president the benefit of the doubt?

KARINE JEAN-PIERRE: There are things that we can work on that's bipartisanship, which

is DACA, infrastructure, improving...

(CROSSTALK)

JUDY WOODRUFF: Which is immigration.

KARINE JEAN-PIERRE: Immigration, right, right, for young undocumented folks who came here

with their parents when they were really young.

And there's also the criminal justice, right?

That was done in a bipartisan way.

It was a first step.

And there's more to be done.

The problem is, and what we said earlier, he declares things in his speech, but then

he doesn't stick to them.

And I think Democrats are ready to work on those things I just mentioned, but he doesn't

stick to it.

JUDY WOODRUFF: I want to come -- I want to look at this, step back a little bit, Chris

Buskirk, because part of what's going on here is that some of the -- many of the people

who support the president don't seem to want him to cooperate with the other side.

And, Karine, I think you could say that about a number of progressive liberal Democrats

who don't want to see their party cooperate.

What about that, Chris?

CHRIS BUSKIRK: Well, let me give -- the best way, for me at least, to think about it is

to use a concrete illustration.

So you think about the immigration issue.

I mean, this is a place where people like Speaker Pelosi and Minority Leader Schumer,

10 years ago, 12 years ago, they were talking, yes, we need a wall, we need border security.

I think what the president needs to do is explain why that's important and how that

is something that protects -- how border security protects working families, American working

families.

Why?

Because it protects their most valuable asset, which is their asymmetric access to the American

labor market.

Make that argument, maybe in a more...

JUDY WOODRUFF: In other words, immigrants take jobs away from you?

Is that -- I mean...

CHRIS BUSKIRK: Take jobs away, lower wages.

I mean, more supply equals -- more supply lowers prices.

That's basic.

You explain that to people and say, look, this is why -- this is why immigration is

important to me or this is why trade policy is important to me, because I want middle-income

families to be secure economically and to be able to prosper.

JUDY WOODRUFF: And, Karine, the flip side of that, liberal Democrats don't want their

party leaders to work together with the president.

KARINE JEAN-PIERRE: Well, they want Democrats, in particular in the House, now that it's

the majority, to hold this president accountable.

And that's one of the reasons that we took back the House.

And so that's really important.

And that looks in very different ways, right?

That's looking at this Mueller report.

That's also looking at, as I mentioned, the children being separated at the border, Puerto

Rico, 3,000 people dying.

But they also want to see Democrats moving the country forward.

Right?

And they have done that with voting rights and dealing with corruption.

And so those are things that they actually want to see.

But we need Republicans on the other side to do -- to also be in there with us too.

JUDY WOODRUFF: All right, we're going to have a chance to talk about all of this again later

tonight, when we have heard what the president has to say.

Thank you so much, Karine Jean-Pierre, Chris Buskirk.

CHRIS BUSKIRK: Thank you.

KARINE JEAN-PIERRE: Thank you.

JUDY WOODRUFF: Thank you.

In State of the Union Trump will 'call for an end to the politics of resistance' and reveal HIV plan - Duration: 23:40.

President Trump will use his speech to a Joint Session of Congress on Tuesday night to call out the 'resistance' opposing his agenda and ask for Democrat's cooperation on legislative initiatives from border security to infrastructure

'We have a crisis on the Southern border and the Congress has failed to do its job – this Congress, last Congress and for quite a while to make sure that we have what we need at the southern border, which of course the centerpiece is a physical barrier, wall, steel slats,' Kellyanne Conway told reporters on Monday afternoon

'But at the same time this president is going to call for an end to the politics of resistance, retribution and call for more comity,' she added

The White House has been dribbling out tidbits of the hour-long address that Trump will give in primetime on Tuesday

According to Politico, Trump will announce a plan to significantly reduce or eliminate HIV transmissions by 2030

Officials wouldn't confirm Trump's plan to reveal the initiative on Tuesday night, saying they didn't want to get ahead of anything he could announce

They declined on multiple occasions over the last week to get into the meat of of his announcements, even as Trump teased major declarations on border security and the location and timing of his next nuclear summit with Kim Jong-un

A senior official said Friday that the 2019 State of the Union address will have the theme 'choosing greatness' and Trump will seek to 'heal old wounds' in the speech to Congress

He will encourage all Americans to 'adopt a spirit of cooperation' in the remarks that the White House says is intended to be 'unifying,' in spite of the hostilities that have erupted between the president and Democratic lawmakers and led to a government shutdown

'President Trump's a problem solver, and he will offer solutions that have bipartisan appeal, which are doable and practical,' a senior official, who briefed reporters on the remarks on Friday afternoon, said

He will spend time in the address pushing his trade deal with Mexico, highlighting his trade talks with China, promoting democracy in Venezuela, calling for the cessation of 'endless wars' and asking Congress to pass bills to improve America's infrastructure and lower the price of prescription drugs

Notably, in a nod to the administration's pro-life agenda, the official said, 'He will talk about the fund importance of respecting human life

' Asked if the president's speech will address racial tension in America, the official pointedly told reporters, 'I think the president's going to cast an inspiring vision for all Americans

' The White House would neither comment on any new proposals the president could make nor shed additional light on Trump's suggestion that he could declare a national emergency on the border Immigration will be a major topic of the speech, the person indicated

But the White House official refused to go further than that.'I think afterwards, you'll say, yeah, that's a top priority,' the person said as reporter after reporter pushed for more information on the immigration section

In the lengthy address that the White House says will be in keeping with a traditional State of the Union speeches, the official said that Trump will deliver a unifying, bipartisan, optimistic message

'People will be reminded through the speech of the broad appeal of the president's agenda,' the official said

It will be, in a word, 'visionary,' the official told reporters on Friday.For instance, Trump is set to say: 'Together we can break decades of political stalemate, we can bridge old divisions, heal old wounds build new coalitions, forge new solutions and unlock the extraordinary promise of America's future

The decision is ours to make.' President Trump hinted Friday that he could use his State of the Union address to announce a national emergency on the border

The action would be controversial and totally fly in the face of the outline White House provided for speech's goals and content

He told reporters he's 'certainly thinking about' making the declaration.'I think there's a good chance we'll have to do that,' he said

Asked if he was suggesting he'll make the announcement on Tuesday night, Trump replied: 'What I'm saying is listen closely to the State of the Union

I think you'll find it very exciting.' Trump has been saying for weeks that he could declare a national emergency at the border to free up manpower and funds to build the border wall that Democrats' have steadfastly opposed

The order would almost immediately be challenged.Trump said Friday he believes it would be hard for the courts to keep him from exercising the authority, however

'We have very, very strong legal standing, it would be very hard to do that.But they tend to go to the Ninth Circuit and when they go to the Ninth Circuit, things happen,' he said of the panel that's kept his other executive actions from going into immediate effect

President Trump said that he's already 'building a lot of wall' and will continue to do with 'funds on hand' that appropriators gave him for fencing

'We're negotiating very tough prices, we've designed a much better looking wall that is also actually a better wall, which is actually an interesting combination - it's far more beautiful and it's better - it's much more protective,' he revealed

He refused to say outright if he's planning to declare a national emergency, cryptically telling a reporter: 'I don't want to say, you'll hear the State of the Union, and then you'll see what happens right after the State of the Union

' If Trump declares a national emergency, it could scuttle a deal on Capitol Hill

A bipartisan panel of legislators are looking for ways to satisfy his request by Feb

15 and demands from their own caucus that they withhold $5.7billion in taxpayer funds that Trump says he needs to finish his border barrier

The president said repeatedly this week that they are 'wasting their time' on talks unless the proposal includes his border wall

'We will be looking at a national emergency, because I don't think anything's going to happen

I don't think Democrats want border security.And when I hear them talk about the fact that walls are immoral and walls don't work - they know they work,' Trump contended

He introduced the mantra last week that America should 'build a wall' and 'crime will fall' as he tried to sell his border security package

'The chant now should be "Finish the Wall!" because we're building a lot of wall,' he claimed on Friday

'I could see we're getting nowhere with the Democrats, we're not going to get anywhere with them, it's going to be part of their campaign, but I don't think it's good politically

' Trump said that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi 'should be ashamed of herself because she's hurting a lot of people' with her position that a wall is immoral

'I think the Democrats should be ashamed of themselves.In all fairness to the Democrats, many of them want the wall, and I see it

'he insisted.'They're just dying to say what they want to say, but they can't say it as well as they would be able to if they were allowed to do it

' GOP lawmakers have joined their Democratic colleagues in saying that Trump should adhere by the legislative process rather than taking matters into his own hands with a national emergency declaration

Trump suggested Friday that it is his belief that by taking the wall off the table, he could move along immigration reform discussions

'Actually having a national emergency does help the process.It would certainly help the process

What would help a lot is if the Democrats could actually be honest.They're not being honest,' Trump accused on Friday afternoon

'I like to hear what they talk about in their rooms when they go back.' Democrats who worry they're in for a border security lesson on Tuesday night, may want to prepare for a lecture on late-term abortion from the president, as well

Trump is expected to rail against bills in Virginia and New York that would relax legal restrictions on the practice in his State of the Union address, the White House indicated on Friday

Counselor to the president Kellyanne Conway suggested, in response to a question from DailyMail

com on the theme of Trump's speech, that the president would denounce the measures in the primetime address

'I'm not going to tell you what's in the speech – I've seen it – but maybe he'll ask Democrats, in view of the new news, why do you object to the Pain-Capable bill that non-partisan scientists say a baby can feel pain after the twentieth week,' Conway said

Politico also reported that White House sources were saying it would be a major topic

Conway said that Trump would be highlighting bipartisan efforts like criminal justice reform and praising the economic gains the nation has seen under his presidency

But she indicated that he'd also tackle the controversial issue of late-term abortion

'Now we've got, we've got governors, and state legislators in many places, but most illustratively, and recently, in New York in Virginia, saying that a baby can have his or her life snuffed out of it, out of him or her

after 20 weeks.I mean this is who we are as Americans?' she asked.Trump said Thursday that a theme of his State of the Union address will be 'unity' — and he will praise Republicans for sticking by him over the course of his last year in office

'I think it's unification, I think it's industry, I think it's about the people that you see right here,' he told reporters from the Oval Office

Trump quickly pivoted to an attack on Democrats for refusing his pleas for a border wall and then back to the topic of unity in the next sentence as he gave reporters their first look at the Tuesday speech

'The problem is the Democrats, you know when they say, we don't want to build, as an example, we don't want to build a wall, because it doesn't work or because it's immoral,' he charged

Bringing up Pelosi's claim that a wall is 'immoral,' he said that allowing Americans to die at the hand of violent immigrants is also unacceptable

'Well it's also immoral, the people that come into our country that shouldn't be here and kill people

That's immoral, too.That's a lot more immoral,' he claimed with no build-up.He added, as he got back on topic: 'But I really think it's going to be a speech that is going to cover a lot of territory but part of it is going to be unity

' Asked by DailyMail.com about the assault on the opposing party, seconds after he said he wanted to spark unity, Conway said Friday, 'Well the president, of course, is going to be a unifying figure

He is the leader of the country.'And he is certainly the leader of the country at the State of the Union

It's his opportunity once a year to look the American people in the eye, cut out the middle man – respectfully, until the panels talk afterwards – to convey to them, many things they don't hear throughout the year

' She mentioned the January jobs report that dropped earlier on Friday.Companies created more jobs the first month of the year than forecasters expected

'The record of accomplishment, the facts and figures of his great economy, today with 304,000 new jobs created, well above the line of 70,000 that were projected

So, he will say things like that, showing the economy's strong,' she said.As part of his bid to spark 'unity' she said he will talk about criminal justice reform, prescription drug legislation and other issues on which 'Republicans and Democrats have proven they can come together and work toward a common purpose of serving the American people

' 'He believes border security is a non-partisan issue that should have bipartisan solutions,' she added

'And I don't think that the speaker of the House, respectfully, sounds very unifying, most days she sounds like a cable news pundit

She doesn't sound like a unifying figure.' Conway said that Pelosi, who represents liberal San Francisco in Congress should broaden her own message and 'get a little bit better control of her temper and her chamber

' 'And those who don't show up for the State of the Union, that's on them, not on the president

They need to explain to their constituents why they thought so little of the people they represent that they refused to sit in the hallowed chamber in the Capitol and listen to our president come forward and try to call for bipartisan action on any number of measures

That's on them,that's not on him.' No Democrats have said so far that they are boycotting the speech, but many refused to sit in the chamber and listen to Trump in 2018 - some over comments he made about immigrants from 's***hole nations' seeking refuge in America

The president and Democrats are still clashing over the issue that looms large ahead of a Feb

15 deadline to fund the Department of Homeland Security and other major agencies.They're also butting heads on Trump's foreign policy

The Senate moved forward with legislation to rebuke his Middle East policy moves this week

They want a review of his troop withdrawal in Syria and an assessment of a possible pullout in Afghanistan

Conway said national security and foreign policy would be major pillars of Trump's address on Tuesday, as well

'The president spends a good part of everyday thinking about the nation's intelligence, security, foreign policy certainly, "endless wars" as he calls them in places like Syria and Afghanistan, where he thinks that we have spent enormous treasure, most of all, our young men and women who have perished there

And of course he will be addressing that in the State of the Union, as well as domestic issues,' she added

Democrats have selected former Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacy Abrams to give their response to Trump

He said he hopes she does a good job and has 'respect' for her on Thursday, despite referring to her as 'not qualified' to hold office last year as he tried to bring her down

'I respect her.I don't know her.I haven't met her, but I hope she does a good job,' Trump said of the Democratic politician

He mentioned that he doesn't the Georgian who he worked to to keep out of office on a personal level

'I campaigned against Stacey Abrams, I know that President Obama campaigned for her

Michelle Obama campaigned for her, and Oprah campaigned for her, and all Brian [Kemp] had was me, and he won fairly easily, you know fairly easily

So, I hope that she does a good job.' Abrams garnered national attention in her bid to become the first female, African-American governor of Georgia in a contest that went down to the wire

Federal Prosecutors Subpoena Trump For Inauguration Finance Documents - Duration: 4:36.

Yesterday, federal prosecutors in New York issued subpoenas to the Donald Trump inaugural

committee seeking documents that could help explain how he was able to raise a $107,000,000

more than any other president in the history of the United States for his inaugural parties

and galas and all of the events surrounding his inauguration.

I'm $107,000,000 this group raised.

And now thanks to these subpoenas they're going to have to show where every single penny

of that came from.

The, uh, documents or the subpoena, excuse me, uh, seeks an array of documents including

all information related to inaugural donors, vendors, contractors, bank accounts of the

inaugural committee, and any information related to foreign contributors to the committee.

Because here's the thing, only us, residents and legal citizens are allowed to donate to

an inaugural committee.

If you accept money from any foreign entity, corporation, person, government, whatever,

you've broken the law and they wouldn't be issuing these subpoenas, these federal prosecutors

up in New York if they didn't believe that they were taking foreign money.

Honestly, they wouldn't have been able to even get these subpoenas if they weren't able

to kind of go ahead and show that there's probable cause that these guys were taking

in for and money and no, I'm not just talking about Russia here.

There's good evidence that the inaugural committee may have been taking money from the Middle

East to help pay for some of these events, you know, and possibly as the subpoenas show

possibly buying a little bit of influence with the Trump administration.

Uh, here's something from the La Times right here.

It says, the document indicates that prosecutors are investigating crimes related to conspiracy

to defraud the United States mail fraud, false statements, wire fraud, and money laundering.

That's no short list there.

The subpoena seeks information related to broad topics, including information about

benefits provided to top donors, training documents for fundraisers and information

related to any payments made directly by donors to vendors, which is also not something that

is allowed.

Everything has to go through the inaugural committee, although we do have enough available

evidence today, documents have already come out showing that donors did directly pay vendors.

Now, here's what's interesting about this, obviously this is another legal headache for

Donald Trump as his company, his administration, his campaign and his charity are all also

under investigation, so sure, let's go ahead and throw in the inaugural committee to go

ahead and get that hat trick of all you know, everything this man has ever touched is now

under potential criminal investigation, but his kids were also heavily involved in this

as we're members of the Trump organization, which is likely where this case stemmed from

because let's not forget, these are the federal prosecutors up in New York.

They're the ones who have been looking at the Trump Organization.

They have talked to Michael Cohen.

They have seen emails and now it has evolved from just the Trump Organization where members

were coordinating with the inaugural committee.

Some of them even served on it to now focusing on the inaugural committee.

This is a huge evolution in this investigation and it shows that there is more to it than

even the prosecutors and investigators had originally thought they wouldn't be going

down this avenue if there was not a good chance that there was criminal activity on behalf

of the inaugural committee and that is what these subpoenas are hoping to find out, and

once they get these financial records, it's going to be a lot easier for them to trace

the dollars, find the donors, and find out if they were doing this to gain favor with

the president or more importantly, if they were even legally allowed to make the contribution

in the first place.

Sarah Huckabee Sanders Says Trump's Executive Time Lets Him Be "Creative" - Duration: 5:42.

Recently, Axios reported that to Donald Trump had spent roughly 60 percent of the last three

months in his so called executive time, which is Donald Trump's time to sit there on twitter

watching TV and calling Fox News host who are not yet on the air for that day.

So as she always does, Sarah Huckabee Sanders comes out and decides to defend the president

spending more than half his time not working by saying that this executive time actually

allows the president to be more creative, right?

It gets the creative juices flowing, sitting there watching Fox News and playing around

on his phone.

That's what she said.

That was her emailed response to the organization's.

After this story came out, let's read a little from it says, uh, she said that Trump has

a different leadership style than his predecessors.

And the results speak for themselves to allow, uh, the executive time.

It allows for a more creative environment that has helped make him the most productive

president in modern history.

It's indisputable that our country has never been stronger than it is today under the leadership

of president Trump.

And it's all because according to Huckabee Sanders, he's allowed to sit on his ass and

watch TV all day.

That is why America is great and I hope she understands what she saying.

She's basically saying that by sitting around and not doing anything, the president is helping

the country.

Maybe it's because he's not interfering.

Maybe it's because he's not out there and acting is stupid policies.

Maybe it's because he's too preoccupied with what's happening on the Fox and friends couch

that day.

But here's the thing.

First and foremost, Donald Trump is not the most productive president in modern history.

And only an absolute idiot would think that he is.

I mean, honestly, yeah.

The man has reshaped the judiciary for several generations here in the United States, as

any other Republican would have done in that position.

Uh, the Republicans in the Senate and house, they, they're the ones who gave us the massive

tax cut for the one percent.

All Donald Trump had to do was sign it.

It's not like he had to bring people over to the Republican side and say, come on, vote

for this.

We need your vote.

No, they all wanted it and they did that themselves.

Those are really the only two accomplishments that this man can speak of throughout his

entire presidency, and he really didn't play a role in any of them.

Yeah, he nominated the people for the federal judiciary, but as reports have shown, that

was after meetings with Mitch McConnell, after Mitch McConnell had meetings with members

of right wing think tanks who told him who to nominate, who he then told Donald Trump

who to nominate.

This guy has done nothing in sitting around in his lazy boy all day.

Watching TV in tweeting is not helping this country.

It's also not helping him get his creative juices flowing.

Is Sarah Huckabee Sanders implied what it's doing is allowing the even more dangerous

people within this administration, and yes, there are some people like John Bolton.

It's allowing them to call the shots.

People like Kirstjen Nielsen, they're the ones who need supervision, even if it is supervision

from Donald Trump, because those two human beings are far more evil than Donald Trump

could ever hope to be, but when he's sitting there watching TV not working isolated from

everyone else, those two and many others in the White House are left to their own devices.

They can do whatever the hell they want and that is a problem.

As bad as it is when Donald Trump is actually working and enacting horrid policies, it's

even worse when he's not working and allowing his evil little underlings to do all of the

policy

that he

should

be doing.

Mueller May Finally Get His Hands On Trump Jr. And Jared Kushner's Congressional Testimonies - Duration: 5:41.

Tomorrow, Democrats on the House Intelligence Committee have scheduled a vote and what they're

going to be voting on is whether or not to send over some of the transcripts from the

congressional testimonies that people like Donald Trump, Jr. and Jared Kushner gave to

the intelligence community within the last two years.

You see, here's the thing, they want to send these transcripts over to Robert Mueller,

the special prosecutor because, and this was a surprise to me, mother apparently doesn't

have those.

Wouldn't you think that the guy investigating all of these idiots would need those transcripts,

need to know what these people told members of Congress behind closed doors when they

were no cameras running.

To be honest, I was quite shocked about this and then I remembered, well, Republicans did

control the house for those two years, so I guess technically it's not at all that surprising.

Nonetheless, Democrats are gonna vote tomorrow whether or not to send this information over

there.

And this is really just a procedural vote.

I Democrats control the committee.

They've got higher numbers.

So yes, this is a thing that is going to happen and in fact it would have happened a long

time ago and Republicans know that, but what Republicans did was they actually put off

assigning members to that committee in order to basically cripple it for as long as possible.

Clever move by Republicans, but ultimately it's not going to do you any good.

And again, Jared Kushner and Donald Trump Jr. are the two real targets that Democrats

say they want to send these transcripts over and they claimed that these transcripts are

explosive and that they could be of vital importance to a guy like Robert Muller.

Specifically.

What they're trying to do is prove that both Trump, Jr. and Kushner lied under oath when

they testified.

So by sending these transcripts over to Robert Muller who also has information, he's talked

to a lot more people than that a committee did within the last couple years.

So he knows a lot more than they do and he'll be able to square up those transcripts and

those statements from Trump Jr. and Kushner and whoever else may be there with what he

already has.

And if it turns out that one of them lied, there go more criminal charges.

And what's really interesting about this is that after Roger Stone got indicted, everybody's

already assuming the next two dominoes to fall down or going to be Kushner and Trump

Jr..

In fact, even before Roger Stone got indicted months ago, people were saying it's probably

going to be Roger Stone.

Then the next one's goIng to be Trump Jr. Kushner and that crew a crew, and then it's

going to be Trump himself.

Well, democrats are trying to hasten that along and say, all right, well let's get you

these documents because these are things you can probably pop these guys for a couple of

crimes with.

But as I mentioned, it may not be just Kushner and donna, a don Jr..

Here is a the entire list of people who Robert Mueller may find interesting stuff on their

transcripts that they gave before congress.

brad parscale, digital media director of the 2016 campaign for Trump.

Keith Schiller, Trump's former bodyguard, erik prince, the founder of black water, a

hope hickS, former white house comms director, felix sader for former Trump real estate associate,

steve bannon and alex next, who's the former ceo of the political consulting firm, cambridge

analytica.

They might send over all the transcripts from all those people.

They have a total of 73 different people whose transcripts they have that they could be sending

over to Robert Miller, but I think at this point they're just ready for the big fish

to finally be hauled into the boat, so I don't think they're going to worry with people like

alex nicks or hope hicks.

They want Trump Jr., and they want Kushner and after this vote tomorrow, it's likely

that they're going to send over everything.

they have the robert muller and he's going to be free to do with it whatever he feels

necessary.
