since trump won the u.s. election, netanyahu's far-right government has announced the construction of hundreds of settlement housing units -- as well as the first brand new settlement in two decades -- in the israeli-occupied west bank. trump's pick for ambassador to israel, david friedman, is a longtime political and financial supporter of israel's settlements, which are illegal under international law. netanyahu is a close friend of the kushner family, jared kushner in advisor to president trump and also his son-in-law. in washington state, lawyers are suing the federal government over the arrest and detention of daniel ramirez medina, who was arrested friday by agents with immigration and customs enforcement, or ice, even though the 23-year-old has permission to live and work in the united states under president obama's daca program. that is deferred action for childhood arrivals. his lawyers have called his detention unprecedented and unjustified. ramirez was arrested when ice agents came to his father's

how come trump knows manafort. why are they all knowing each other is my question, to start with. >> you know, i spent a fair amount of time writing political satire, and when you list things like that, i can't answer that question. roger stone has been at donald trump's side. i remember him escorting trump onto a convention floor several conventions ago when he was going to run for president and we thought it was a joke. the question about paul manafort, who was engaged in helping prose, you mentioned soviet. it's funny i had that same instinct to call them soviets. prorussian ukraines. there's entanglement. one of the things that helped trump is the different skeins of this raise so many questions that it's hard to focus on any one strain and say that's what we have to question. the question i think really comes down to the senate republicans who have looked at trump as their instrument for getting a lot of good things done and have tended to overlook a lot of things. are they beginning to see this as a series of

. >>> trump watch. tuesday, february 21st, 2017, the danger of heading too far right even in this good country is you meet some strange people. these are oddities on the bad side. they are not the country's worry right now. the beehive that's buzzing today is on the hard right. it includes the sort of people donald trump aroused from under their rocks during the last campaign. i refer to those captivated early by his condemnation of barack obama's a guy whoo snuck into this country from east africa, build up a phony resume in and where trump said no one knew him and traveled underground to such places as harvard law school and the white house all the while pretending to be this guy born to a kansas mother, grandson of a world war ii combat vet. he began beating the drum about rapists sneaking in from mexico and pushing for a ban on muslims sneaking in here to terrorize. trump has no one to blame beyond himself for the image he's projected of something comfortable with people who championed a view toward

trump: so, sit down. donald trump did not get a standing ovation. they leave out the part, they never sat down. they leave that out. my first major speech was at cpac. probably five or six years ago, first major political speech. and you were there. i loved it, i love the people and the commotion. they did these polls where i was -- i went through the roof and i was not even running. it gave me an idea. i got concerned when i saw what was happening in the country. and i said let's go to it. it was very exciting. i walked the stage at cpac. i will never forget it, really. i had very little notes and even less preparation. so when you have practically no notes and no preparation and you leave and everyone was thrilled, i said i think i like this business. i would have come last year but i was worried that at that time i would be too controversial. we wanted border security and a very, very strong military. we wanted all of the things we're going to get. people consider that controversial, but you did not consider it controversial. [applause] pres. tru

trump and data have less of a relationship than trump and tiffany. come on, what are you like-- come on, come on. but trump's defensiveness is telling. it shows that even he realizes he needs to prove he's in control, and maybe someday he will be. but for now, let's congratulate steve bannon. as of this moment, you are the real president. the american people didn't elect you, but then again they kind of didn't elect trump either. now here it is, your moment of zen. - um, i think it's bull[bleep]. i mean, i'm not gonna get into it too deeply, but personally i think it's bull[bleep]. no. [cheers and applause] - [coughs]

trump and the prime minister. all of this on secretary of state rex tillerson's first day on the job. we have live coverage from europe to the middle east to asia. we start with ian lee in jerusalem with the surprising white house pivot on israeli settlements. good morning, ian. >> reporter: good morning, christine. for many of us who cover israel, this did come as a bit of a shock especially since it seemed like the trump administration was giving the israeli government the green light to expand settlements in the west bank and east jerusalem. they announced over 6,000 settlement units since trump came into office. then we get this statement from the white house. while we don't believe the existence of settlements are an impediment to pieeace, the expansion beyond the current borders may not be helping in achieving that goal. we are starting to hear from israeli officials. the deputy foreign minister came out shortly and said that the current israeli government was elected to act on the jewish people's right to b

in trump world, enemy of the american people is an enemy of trump lies. i have been on trump's enemies list since he told his first lie about president obama's birth. it was a pretty short list in those days, and trump's media enemies list remained a very short list after he began his presidential campaign, and the news media prized access to trump. there was nothing better for your ratings on tv than a donald trump interview. an interview that i never got because i was on that enemies list from day one. and donald trump knew. he knew very well how an interview with me would have gone. it wouldn't have been one of those interviews that i was conducting in the hope of getting him to agree to come back for another interview. he attacked me on twitter every chance he got. he threatened to sue me on twitter and i wore every one of those tweets like a badge of honor. a badge that said, enemy of trump lies. and tonight the good news for america is there are more and more of those enemies of trump lies in the american news media every day. and yes, better late t

during trump's upcoming state visit, sobbing trumps racism and sexism. trump's racism and sexism. to talk more about trump's foreign policy, we are joined by ststephen walt, international relations professor at harvard university. his recent piece in foreign policy headlined "trump has already blowown it." how has he blown it? >> i think you could argue t tht trumump had a an oppoportunity e was elected d to move an americn foreign-policy in a somewhat different direction, and it would have been -- there would have been substantial public support away from military interventionism, trying to get a more even distribution of labor with some of our key allies, working for economic arrangements that benefited main street as muchch as theyey bened wall strtreet. so hee could have done that. of course, he has d done the opposite. he has been picking fifights wih some of f our traditioional alls anand doing t that to no good purpose, with no real end in mind. he is an explicit totally -- inextricably continue to defend the bad behavior of vladimir putin and has

president trump: i have a judge who is a hater of donald trump. he is a hater. be judge, who happens to mexican, which i think is fine, i think the mexicans are going to end up loving donald trump when i give all these jobs. amy: that was donald trump attacking another judge for his mexican heritage. he then tweeted up a furious storm on saturday talking about judge robart. how unusual is this?s? >> we certainly have not seen this in the past where you have a president or his administration individually attack judges and their decisions. yes, they may attack their notsions, right not -- but individually challenge the judg es. i think it shows the deliver it disregard -- deliberate disregard from the administration to the principles of our democracy. there are three equal branches that apply checks and balalances on one another. amy: that adams, they did for being with us. adams is also legal director for the northwest immigrant rights project, which filed the suit along with the american immigration council l and the nanational immigration project f the national

than trump himself. does that make it easier or yarder to work with others in this administration. >> democrats haven't been able to crack the code with this guy. there is a lot of energy in their base. he won the election. despite all these controversies he keeps plowing ahead. what we will see today is donald trump having fun. he likes going out on the stump, likes the adoring crowds. likes bragging about his victory attacking democrats and hist media. i think he krz himself the bess messenger of his administration and he is going to go out there and deliver it the way he wants to deliver night do you think he is making progress on his initiatives? >> that's the huge question. there is a lot of frustration i think on capitol hill that instead of talking about tax cuts, obamacare repeal we are talking about donald trump's tweets, about him calling the media the enemy of the american people. it is a hard for republicans to drive a coherent consistent message when he keeps come out and saying these outlan

and nbc news reports investigators have determined while some trump campaign aides and trump business associates were in contact with russians, there's no indication those russians were all intelligence officers. according to "the new york times," one person picked up on the calls was trump's former campaign chairman, paul manafort. manafort told nbc news he had, "no contact knowingly with russian intelligence officials." president trump responded to the story this morning on twitter, writing "the fake news media is going crazy with their conspiracy theories and blind hatred." and "this russian connection nonsense is merely an attempt to cover up the many mistakes made in hillary clinton's losing campaign." like precious bodily fluids from dr. strangelove. and another setback for the trump administration, late today, the president's pick to be labor secretary withdrew his nomination. andrew puzder pulled out after it became clear he didn't have the republican votes he needed to win confirmation. joining me right now, "washington post" white house correspondent jenna johnson. "the new

it was vintage trump. the trump people voted for the outsider, thursday trump was dismantling the hostile media in the briefing room and shouting to his base, to the deplorables and they loved it. the media, not so much. they whined, they moaned and generally offended by the event so much so they failed to cover a far more important moment later in that day. after the epic press conference, president trump signed legislation that rolls back onerous regulations on the coal industry, therefore freeing an industry to hire more americans for jobs right here in america. west virginia, kentucky, pennsylvania, ohio among others. >> president trump we thank you very much for everything that you've done for us, everything you're doing for our industry is very much needed. i've been mining in this industry for 40 years and this is a very exciting time for our industry. eric: you see, that's where the trump rubber meets the road, jobs. so far tens of thousands of american jobs trump saved and created are what really

we know it's not trump. i figured -- i was, like, let me show you the current standings of what we have here, all right? ( laughter ) so, as you can see, for week three, we have a whole bunch of people, donald trump's still stuck in number five spot, but there is been a lot of movement in the top three and that's what we'll share with you today. at number three, we have jay jarvanka -- jared and ivanka trump. ( laughter ) in the number two spot, fox news, or as trump calls it his daily briefings. but the number one spot in this week's edition of who's the real president goes to -- ( drum roll ) ( cheering ) ( booing ) >> trevor: steve bannon! yea! steve! yea! yes. donald trump's chief strategist who is the rormer radical editor of breitbart and the author of the best selling biography if eczema were human, the steve bannon story. ( laughter ) we've heard so much about the power and influence steve bannon has in the white house. >> where did the term muslim ban come from? >> how did the president decide the s

trump helped his case. he stuck it to the media. good for him. you have got the 30% to 40% of people who don't like donald trump, and that re-even forced their view of him. the question is, what about everyone else, the people who voted for obama and switched to trump. i don't think he's helping himself with those people. i don't think constantly obsessing over the minutia of media coverage is helping him in any way, shape or form. it's not going to help him get his policies passed, it won't reinforce a sense of stability. it won't help him with republican senators who are having questions. >> before it counters what he seize as a negative media negative. isn't the distaste much deeper than that. don't most of the journalists dislike this presi they think some of his policy positions like immigration are extreme. >> maybe. let's agree that the main supreme media tend to lean left. when george bush was elected and started in 2001, lost the popular vote and won the electoral vote. we didn't have anything like

it is tied to trump's victory. highest count came on the first day after the election with the numbers diminishing steadily after that. more than a third of the incidents directly referenced either trump, my make america great again slogan or remarks about grabbing women. i'm joined more by the southern poverty. what is it correlation? is it cause yalty. what can you find here in the data? >> i think you've been over a couple of the key points. one, it was related to the election because it was a huge outburst of these incidents starting immediately after the election, and two in analyzing all of the incidents, we found 37% of the perpetrators as you said, either named president trump by saying something like, you know, yelling to a woman wearing a hijab. you go back to your country, now donald trump is president. that kind of thing. or the make america great slogan or the grabbing women comment. it wasn't particularly only anti-semitic acts and attacks that we saw, basically every minority in america was attacked

trump. anybody who doesn't understand that and writes against that fact is just reporting inaccurate information. howie: you told sean hannity on the radio that the media are inciting mob mentality. that's a very strong charge. you think negative media coverage could lead to mob violence. >> did you see the martyrs at the airport, the conscientious civic participants. protests are part of our first amendment. howie: we have seen this in some of the urban riots. >> why don't they go and talk to -- they are the media. they already missed america. they don't understand america and thup their nose at most of america and you know that. america didn't go to the ivy league schools like the media did. there are some people in the media whose dry cleaning bill for the year is basically what some people earn in the cities and counties where donald trump won. fast forward, why don't they go and see who is going to benefit and talk to the people who are tactically going to benefit from keeping the facto

and sordid donald trump. he lost the state of new hampshire by a narrow margin in the general election, but he won the big prize, in ajourney the general election, but he won the big prize, in a journey that started here, in more ways than one. new hampshire, iwant here, in more ways than one. new hampshire, i want to thank you. we love you. you started it. remember, you started it. a minute left of this half of outside source. i will quickly show you a report from a chinese village featuring a pretty impressive commute... until recently a trip to work or school meant scaling and 800 metre cliff face. have a look at this. scaling an 800 metre cliff face. have a look at this. translation: stay with us on outside source. in our sports section we will look at downhill mountain biking and downhill mountain biking and downhill skateboarding. that is coming up in five—minutes' time. stay with us for that. hello. our weather may have turned colder, reaching for the gloves and scarves again, but spare a thought for

trump knew the whole time. when trump went into office, i told myself i will give trump a chance. but come of country is going to but, thisess -- country is going to be a big mess. the small guys will get thrown out. if you really look at it, trump was a corrupt man with his business and it will continue on. it will be a corrupt government until trump gets impeached or they find more and more stuff -- he won't even release his taxes. jesus. doesn't want to show how corrupt the us. host: the president releasing another tweet this morning. this one about russia's hang crimea was taken by russia during the obama administration. russia, sayingut crimea was taken by russia during the obama administration. we're getting your thoughts. 202-748-8001 for republicans. for democrats, 202-748-8000. .or independents, 202-748-8002 jane and virginia. independent line. caller: i'm an 83-year-old woman and i been listening to these democrats and republicans and i been watching. -- i've been watching. what a corrupt government we have. i just know hillary has been in -- nobody's giving him a chance

-- trump: you havemr. trump: mr. trump: you have parents and people that adore you, all of a sudden, the world seems to be coming to an end. it was just sort of an incredible experience. charlie: did you have to go to your father and say, bell me out? -- bail me out? help me? mr. trump: my father would not have been in a position to bail me out. i have a sister who is a federal judge. she is very strong. she is a fantastic woman. i never knew as to loyalty whether or not she would be there. other people were there. the incredible thing is, you cannot really tell who is going to be there and who is not. i would have bet my life on certain people. i would have said, politically speaking, that andrew stein would have been there. charlie: there for what? first 15 years i supported andrew stein. i never asked him for a thing. when i needed a vote, and until the very end when everybody else was on board, andrew was not there. i was really surprised. ultimately, he was there. it should not have been so difficult. charlie: h

trump, president trump promised a huge set of changes in the country. many of them focused on jobs. the idea that you would see the results of what he was doing by primarily the improvement in the jobs situation. and what has happened instead the first few weeks seem to be a lot of focus on how he's portrayed in the media. the one sweeping thing they've done policiwise has been this travel ban that turned out to be written in poorly, blocked in the courts, something that created a lot of sympathy for the other side. rather than sort of policy outcomes that president trump would want. i think that's good advice. there is a huge amount of focus on who's up and who's down, that's detracting from the actual things that president trump said he should be judged by. which is policies that create jobs. >> we'll have to wait and see what he says as the trump rally in melbourne, florida. you can see the crowd in the airport hangar awaiting his arrival. before we go, i want to get your best guess on what these two were talking about over dinner. the "saturday night live" comedian, kate mckinno

trump 45%. does trump know pence better surrogate for him than he is himself? >> we are starting a poll, in this poll, trump most popular person. bernie sanders is most of the country -- >> pence is most popular in the administration. you look at bannon, he is down 20%. the people negative 2 or 3. >> those people are having trouble going to speak to people now. >> michelle, this is true. he is like dart va dar. >> right. >> he is sort of the tough guy in the white house. kellyanne has had her problems. but pence says yes, i believe in nato. so we get more gas, these are the -- why isn't the president says the smart stuff? >> because the base doesn't want to hear from him. that's not what he got elected for. he is calm, he is stable. when everybody else in the administration is operating up here, hearing his even his tone of voice, can be very calming which is surprising. because prior to the election one would have thought, given pence's idea, people would not find calm in pence. but that's what he has given them. >> that's what's bizarre, i think cheney was --

or any former staffer for the trump -- with trump? >> so i agree with your previous guest in saying, you know, the senate intel committee, they've said they're going to take this up. that is where you do investigations like this. i think to call for a 9/11-type commission is overkill on this. i think we need to get to the bottom of this. these are answers we deserve. ultimately specifically on the flynn thing, i think the cover-up in this case is far worse than the crime depending on what was discussed and in fact, later, you know, find out he talked to the fbi, we want to know if he told the truth to the fbi or not. if he lied, in fact, that's what can lead to a lot of trouble. so i think the senate intel committee is perfectly capable of getting to the bottom of this, answers that we need and i think we'll get them. >> i've been pointing out every night that jeremy bash who worked for cia director panetta, secretary of defense panetta, i sort of look to for guidance on this, he said that he had no -- he would expect or have no probl

trump, 12% say the same. would it be better for the country in journalists cover the country aggressively. 50% agree, 38% say it's better to give the president the benefit of the doubt. >> shannon: what do you make of that, you said you'd like to find the 18%. do you think those are diehard people won't be suede by whatever they see on the tv or newspapers? >> it's interesting on the top line who could you trust more to tell the truth very predictable partisan breakdown, 81% republicans trust trump more, 78% of democrats favor the media. independents split more toward trump. on the question of coverage, even the plurality of dem kroots say the president is tougher on this president. >> shannon: what about a bit of historical comparison, looking back it seems people in the past had more respect for reporters versus politicians. seems like that gap has definitely closed. >> no question about it. there was a time a couple of decades ago when the press was widely respected. going back to the days when robert redf

[laughter] president trump: "donald trump did not get a standing ovation." they leave out the part -- they never sat down. they leave that out. you know my first major speech , probably five or six user token first major political speech. and you were there. i love to the people, i love the commotion. and then they did these polls where i went through the roof and i wasn't even running. but it gave me an idea. and i got a little bit concerned when i saw what was happening in the country. and i said let's go to it. it was very exciting. i walked the stage on cpac. i will never forget it, really. i had very little notes and even less preparation. so when you have practically no notes and no preparation and then you leave and everybody was thrilled, i said, i think i like this business. i would have come last year but i was worried that i would be at that time to controversy over he wanted -- too controversial. we wanted border security, we wanted very, very strong military, we wanted all the things we are going to get, and people considered that controversial,

trump, well news flash, donald j. trump is president. >> kind of like he did on the campaign trail, right? when things would get rocky he would go back to the people. he would turn back to the base. he would have his giant rallies and his speeches where he would kind of go off on tangents on poll numbers go off on tang engts making fun of hillary clinton and whatnot. and it energized him. and kind of energized his base. he's had a rocky start here inside of official washington. it's a return home for him. there are those thinking this will energize his supporters and maybe help him get back on track a little bit. >> eric, now do you, the president in south carolina, north charleston at boeing was praised for his delivery. for being relaxed. staying on message there. do we have an idea of what we're going to hear today? are we going to hear what tom just suggested quite possibly may be more tax on the media? >> yeah, absolutely. this is going to be sort of vintage trump. he's going to be talking about jobs, complaining

becoming trump, rocking out in trump masks. as new york magazine notes, rap videos embrace trump because with his blunt persona and unsavory associations, trump was short-hand not just for money, but for money godly displayed, money irrespective of taste or social convention. and donald trump's election may change some of that. kanye west could be the most prominent rapper to continue a flirtation with trump but did walk back that outreach, west facing criticism for meeting with president-elect trump from other rappers. even though west was really only doing what so many rappers had done before the trump brand was political. uncle murdo calling that out and citing the past criticism rapping, the people don't trust you, bush don't like black people, you think donald trump do, don't meet with donald trump and talk about us, ye. you ain't got the answers, just like you told sway, a reference to west's interview with sway. >> you ain't got the actions, man. you ain't got the answers. you ain't got the answers. you ain't got the ans

what has he learned from trump. he joined me now. >> you are big billionaires, you guys understand leverage very effectively. how do do you believe president trump is using leverage in negotiating so far his first 30 days as commander-in-chief? >> the first thing trump recognized in the campaign, and i think it's not just unique to the united states, it happened in britain and canada, in france and switzerland, in columbia, the body politic people who vote are sick and tired of politicians. they've had enough bs. they want people who are operators to run government, that make promises they keep and that was the groundswell that elected donald trump and he is doing exactly what he said. not everybody is comfortable about it. it's the first time in a long time a politician actually kept their promises. that's that's what such a shock to everybody. jesse: people are very uncomfortable with politicians keeping promises because it never happens. one of your colleagues in shark tank, mark cuban, very vocal critic of trump

campaign and the trump business. according to u.s. officials familiar with the matter. and both the frequency of the communications and proximity to those close to trump raised a red flag to law intelligence and law enforcement. and according to these officials, the communications were intercepted during routine collection of information targeting russian officials and other russian nationals known to u.s. intelligence. among those regularly communicating with russian nationals was then campaign manager paul manafort and adviser michael flynn according to our sources. officials say communications between representatives between foreign governments is not unusual. however, due to the frequency and level of the trump advisers involved. investigators have not reached a judgment on the intent of those communications adding to those u.s. ambassador were concerned that were intercepted communications between russian officials before and after the election. discussing their belief that they had special access to trump. now,

donald trump treated this. our first guest tonight is here to talk about the iranian provocations and the trump administration focus on radical islamist terror. joining us ambassador john bolton. do you think there is any way the irans will pay attention? >> when you name specific individual and companies, simply new come any, new false fronts appear. freezing asset in the united states, if the iranians learned anything once obama unfroze all their assets, they are not going to leave anything here to freeze. what's most significant are the statements made by president trump, national security advisor principle saying this puts iran on notice. i think what it put them on in the about is the obama nuclear deal is a heartbeat away from being ended. and the president himself saying i's not taking any options off the table. for the first time in 8 years there is a credible threat of military force. if donald trump has shown anything in the past two week it's his credibility. if there is the slightest chance iran wil

this after president trump

trump, there's no irony or humor in trump's attacks on the press. they are echos of some things i the history of the 20th century. attacking the -- the enemy of the people, enemy of the people, that's a really dangerous thing to say. trump probably has no understanding of the historical resonance of that. but it is -- it goes for the old soviet union, nazi germany, back to the french revolution. >> yeah. and that -- that sort of outward complete antipathy is different from either the salute or pretense of a salute that other presidents have had. listen to president reagan trying to strike a little bit of that balance. >> what every president's epitaph should be with the press is this, he gave as good as he got. and that i think wil make for a -- [ applause ] and that i think will make for a healthy press and a healthy presidency. >> mr. brands, that was at the white house correspondents dinner, which has changed over time, and gets much earned criticism, but it is a dinner i should note, the president now, president trump says he will not attend. >>

my dog, he no like trump? do you like trump? >> reporter: trump's latin america policies and a promised harder line on cuba have so far been received negatively on the communist run island. we are watching him, he says. he wants to build a wall, to do this, to do that. a lot of strange things. former president obama dramatically changed the u.s.'s cold war era policy towards cuba. reopening the american embassy in havana and became the first sitting u.s. president to visit the island since 1928. direct flight service was re-established in 2016 between the u.s. and cuba. u.s. cruise ships are making frequent stops here, and the island is again crawling with american visitors. but during the presidential campaign, trump promised to take a tougher stance on cuba. >> but all of the concessions that barack obama has granted the castro regime were done through executive order, which means the next president can reverse them, and that i will do unless the castro regime meets our demands. those demands will include religious and politic

during the campaign, donald trump talked about a case involving trump university. and he called the judge a mexican using basically an ethnic slur because the judge is actually from indiana and said he was not qualified. this could be the start of a big challenge, not just to the judiciary but to the whole idea of checks and balances. >> that's what i wanted to talk to you about. in many ways some observers have been saying that the courts it seems are taking up, taking up the challenge essentially of this presidency that a lot of the pushback is going to come from the courts rather than say for example, congress. >> i think that was going to happen initially because this executive order in particular was so sweeping in what it is trying to do that it raised constitutional questions. congressmen right now who may question trump will tend to hang back. they're hoping he can be contained. in that sense, the court fight is sort of the first round of that attempt. >> when we look at all these protests that have been happening outside mar-a-lago, we're reporting a thous

juan: former swedish prime minister kerr built responded to trump's claim i tweeting -- trump later said his comment was in response to a fox news story he had watched the night before about alleged refugee related crime. sweden's crime rate has fallen over the last decade, even as it has accepted hundreds of thousands of refugees including , , from syria. president trump tweeted -- "give the public a break -- the fake news media is trying to say that lararge scale immigration n sweden is working out just beautifully. not!" the swedish prime minister responded to trump's claims to highlighting many things in sweden are in fact working very well. >> it is up to the president to decide what he wants to say. i can only say the world economic forum states was sweden beats countries of just about everything. reports that we have a very inong economic development terms of the for example, gdp per capita. european commission states sweden is europe's most innovative country, global innovation index says sweden is number two. so we have some very strong also that shows sweden is handling the sit

having said that, trump, i believe that trump believes he needs someone, a straw man. someone to blame because there's not a hillary clinton out there. >> an opponent. >> we make the most easiest foil for that. our problem tends to be is people believe we spend too much time focusing on what he says about us. they would like to see us spend more time on what he's doing. does that make sense? >> it does. i would argue some of his actions, what he is doing is attacking the media. >> that's true. >> it's more -- go ahead and i'll make my point. >> we're caught in a really bad position in the way that i see it. we're not the enemies. we work very hard to bring the truth to the people. the people need a free press. it's a vibrant part of a democracy. >> carl. >> look, trump is an enemy of the truth. that is what we know from his presidency thus far. he's not interested in the truth. he's not interested in the best attainable version of the truth, which is what real journalism and reporting is. he's not interested in fact based debate. what we are seeing already are actions

trump saying he wasn't fully briefed. the order on the security council was under 3,000 words, shorter than a single newspaper. the way to get briefed on it is to read it. the president also seemed angry today about press coverage alleging without evidence that reporters don't want to cover terror attacks. >> all oef europe, it's happening. it's gotten to a point where it's not even being reported. and in many cases, the very, very dishonest press doesn't want to report it. they have their reasons and you understand that. >> we don't know what the reasons are. the white house releasing a list of 78 terror attacks that it asserts did not receive, in its view, the proper coverage in the press. we took a look. among those incidents sites are the 2015 paris attack, shooting in san bernardino, the brussels airport bombing. you may remember them because they were widely covered. a report that tracks tv coverage said they were among the most covered events of the year. president trump also caught a lot of pushback, you probably

before trump was inaugurated. and we still don't have a clear picture of what donald trump thinks about these reports. but it's becoming clearer that officials around the president were, indeed, quite concerned about general flynn. the "washington post" is reporting tonight that the former acting attorney general, sally yates, "informed the trump white house late last month that she believed michael flynn had misled senior administration officials about the nature of his communications with the russian ambassador to the united states and warned that the national security adviser was potentially vulnerable to russian blackmail. "current and former u.s. officials said. the "post" goes on to report "in the final days of the obama administration, james clapper, the director of national sbernl intelligence, john brennan, cia director at the time, shared sally yates' concerns about flynn and there's more. new reporting tonight from politico that the trump white house is reportedly searching for potential replacements fo

he was the trenches with trump. he has the street credit to go up torumpo say i got you buddy. >> bannon is looking for own communicati communicati communication consultant. >> right. >> how did he get own seat? >> he has his own clout. policy a lot of it is flowing from bannon. reince is not a policy guy like bannon is. >> the president of the united states factions building empire building. i thought they are here for me. >> you would think that. you have been at this, you find out when you make decisions, you get into a small room, and people like to make decisions in decred decisions in secret. you have things that do not get implemented or get implemented poorly. if you are donald trump you want to see competition, you want to see people on the -- you want to see the survival of the fitness. >> that sound like he nooeian. the wals have ears because everything gets out. thank you. >>> why is president trump still fighting this dance with the apprentice successor schwarzenegger. why is he fieighting the guy. this

in the trump column? these things were set in motion before president obama were set in office. -- president obama was in office. because of the red line, because of one thing after the other. and begun to say we are not sure if the united states has the same kind of -- have our back like they used to. amy: particularly in the period when kerry was secretary of state to deserve more credit for having the u.s. be a voice within our alliances and relationships that people still can turn to. but a lot has been going on with our allies at the same time during the obama years, the whole questioning of the european project. he should to say, oh, have just yelled at all the europeans. i do not know that that would have done anything. but i think that in the in the obama period, obama was a voice that people listened to in a considered way that people don't know what to make of. charlie: he certainly didn't call nato obsolete. [laughter] julia: but we have gone from one extreme to the other. i wonder what practic

mr trump's attitude to judges — trump talked of "so—called judges.". it follows the court's decision to rule out the president's travel ban on people from mostly muslim countries, and further bitterness between the president and some in congress. are these teething troubles — or a sign of how the next four years are likely to be in washington — with the president attacking the other pillars of the us constitution? where do you think we are now? well, i think, what happened this week is reflective of the fact that trump clearly has a hazy view of the constitution, and separation of powers, and the checks and balances that are the hallmark of the us critical system. the appeals courtjudges sent a strong message to him saying, you cannot invoke national security concerns. are these teething problems? to some extent, there is some of that going on. remember when he issued the executive order on immigration, he did not have key appointments in place, and the fact that he has now said that he is considering rewriting the order and making it more narrow,

trump later briefly spoke e to reporters at the white house. mr. trump: it is a political decision. we have a situation where the security of our country is at stake, and it is a very, very serious situation. >> thanks, guys. mr. trump: this is just a decision that came down, but we wiwill win the ce. amy: t the ruling was a major victory for the state of washington which took trump to court. washington state a attorney general bob ferguson called the ruling a victory for the u.s. -- u.s. constitution. mr. ferguson: we have seen him in court twice, and we are 2-2. that is number one. in my view, the future of the constitution is at stake. that i is at stake as well. and, look, we respect that the president has broad authority when it comes to issuing executive orders, but they still have to follow the constitution. does s have a choice ---- he can cocontinue to fight this, or he can tear up the executive order and start over. counsel -- i would strongly counsel him to continue the letter. amy: the trump administration now has 14 days to ask the full 9th circuit to review the decisio

easier to go after trump. >> of the most severe trump -- joy behar does the same thing. they didn't like trump from the get go. it is a rough thing when you are trying to say i think it would be good. then they say this is why he is terrible. >> i feel bad for poor chad. >> how do i handle this. i think canceling the oscars would be bad for us. >> probably should cancel to spare hollywood the embarrassment. >> cancel half of the oscar. >> on the internet, right wing has all sorts of hashtags. you can have fun with what whoopi said. it has merit. powerful analogy. >> it is wrong. >> compared to the taliban? >> didn't he say shut up to the media? >> religious preference in terms of immigrants. forgot about that. >> what about demeaning remarks about women. >> you are actually comparing that with the taliban. >> i am saying i think whoopi goldberg wanted us to think about the kind of attitude, bullying we are seeing. >> when we think about it -- >> just like the taliban. how stupid the analogy is. >> you can argue that. it is clearly hyperbole as dana was saying. >> i am po

but does trump know what that means. and therefore it becomes an erratic thing, that they can't predict. nobody can actually put their money into a particular direction because they don't know what he means by america first. and they don't think he knows what he means by america first. whereas the russians seem to know exactly what they want. and then what happens when you get all these countries who say france first or russia first, america first, all these nationalist regimes. if they're all saying their own country first, then who wins out of that. because it doesn't-- it's not grounds for an orchestrated meal. >> that raises i guess a broader point which perhaps is pertinent now in a way that we hadn't really considered in t in the last 20 years what it means, what is the role of america. and is it-- is it show america's duty in the post cold war, world, to be the upholders of a foreign policy that is built not on individual interests, as malik was suggesting but on something more broad than that? >> i think the u.s.

trump during the campaign. as you heard in michelle's package, things like he was considering recognizing the independence of crimea. that was extremely worrying to ukraine. so i think in the context of the comments from the u.s. ambassador to the u.n. nikki haley this week and what seems to be a slight shift in mr. trump's stance when it comes to sanctions on russia, they will be looking for clarification of that from in trump, from the white house. obviously there is pressure from mr. trump's party, john mccain urging him to arm the ukranian forces, to send lethal aid. the white house did not know whether or not mr. trump would be keen on that idea. so there is a lack of clarity, both confusion about where mr. trump stands on russia and on the issue of ukraine and the violence there escalating all the time. >> tell us about that. what is the situation on the ground, how bad is it? >> it's extremely serious. this is what the international monitors described it as unprecedented level of cease fire violations th

your thoughts on trump? growing up, you see these different things. , in he became the president think k a lot of people were shockeked. for a man with three daughters, i see thehe way he talks about women, the women's movement, i don't agree with a lot of the ink he says or does. you think about building the ,all when the wall is built when so many things are done by them, i disagree with his policies and terms. i hope he realizes it takes everybody to have a place like america. people from chinese, african, italian, irish,'s and wish, it native-- spanish, american dissentnt. it takeses everybody. i do not think he thinks about the choices and the mindset he creates for young people that might disagree with somebody. your brother was also in the headlines. five teammates of his and him, they said they will not visit the white house for the super bowl celebration as a protest against donald trump. your thoughts on it. his decision.port when a person has to deal with , i think a strong person, i definitely ag
