initial damage that stopped the trump presidency in the re-election campaign. >> that is -- that is spot on analysis. all the -- and it's more powerful by the fact that bill weld is so able. they're already trying to dismiss him in the president's re-election campaign, in the white house as being this sort of figure of fun and nobody needs to be taken seriously. bill weld knows what he's doing and he's capable, especially in terms when it comes to articulating stuff that is wrong with the other guy. i think you're right. go, lawrence, go. >> oh, by the way, he is currently polling higher than donald trump was polling at this point four years ago at the beginning of the presidential campaign. so bill weld is a factor. that's why we're going to start off with him tonight. >> thank you, rachel. well, at the end of the hour tonight -- i want to tell you about this now. at the end of the hour, i as seriously bothered by today's "new york times" headline and summary, an exhaustive summary of all the political lies donald trump has told about 9/11 in attacking political opponents of his wi

, ohio. so you are going to want to hear from mr. ryan of ohio tonight. >>> first, donald trump has a new lawyer, and that lawyer is trying to do something that has never been done before, and the reason it's never been done before is that the law is very clear about the case that president trump has hired his new lawyer to handle. and it may be the case that donald trump fears more than any other thing that has happened to him since he took the oath of office. the president's new lawyer is a private attorney who does not work in the white house. he is not on the government payroll. he is a private lawyer to stop richard neal from legally obtaining donald trump's tax returns. and we have been discussing, as we have been discussing for the last two nights, the chairman of the house ways and means power has the power written into law that allows him to obtain anyone's tax returns. obtaining public official's tax returns, including the president, is one of the things that this law was actually designed to do. the law allows the chairman of the tax-writing committees in the senate to obta

. how donald trump's aides were so worried about his potentially illegal obstruction, their view, not mine, that they haxd an elaborate plan to trick him out of tiger trying to firing mueller by manipulating what the president saw on television of and it's not our top story because there are so many other things happening but later we'll tell you what we know about joe biden announcing he's running for president. we begin with all the subpoenas. protecting one of his aides, stephen miller. the white house is resisting to testify under oath. miller was behind the ousting of the homeland security officials who advised donald trump that some of his immigration orders would not be lawful. the white house trying on block trump's own lawyer don mcgahn from telling congress what probably he's already told bob mueller. as you can see here, some of this stems from the high stakes of the fallout of the mueller report and the evidence. it has only been out one week. and bits this fight. future testimony will build on a case against donald trump for obstruction. what that means for his presidency

last two years of the trump era? jake: use all republicans died on the immigration hill. they shut down the government for 35 days. various other issues like health care and tax reform. those were republican hills to die on. host: anna palmer, when did you know you had a book? anna: we had talked about writing a book for a long time. we think capitol hill is the most interesting place in all of washington. 535 numbers of congress. you get an extreme amount of access to them. we knew after donald trump was elected, he promised to come into washington and upend the way things were done. all the power was in republican hands. things were going to be interesting. we never would have protected where you had paul ryan stepping down, republicans you -- losing their majority. really interesting characters we have been covering for a long time but also this through line of immigration and these massive fights. we knew there was a book but we got lucky. host: over the past two years we have also had this special counsel investigation. now that it's out, when you look back at what you were wr

"the 11th hour" with brian williams starts now. >>> tonight president trump says he's not one bit afraid of impeachment as democrats plot their path forward. we'll speak to a member of congress just off a conference call with speaker pelosi tonight. trump also said today, no one disobeys his orders. all evidence in the mueller report to the contrary. and in fact tonight we'll talk to a senior executive who worked for him for years. plus the new revelations we're still learning tonight from the mueller report. all of it as "the 11th hour" gets under way on a monday night. >>> and good evening once again from our nbc news headquarters here in new york. day 823 of this trump administration, and we're following several important headlines tonight, still emerging from the mueller report. late today house judiciary chairman gerald nadler, democrat of new york issued a subpoena for former white house counsel don mcgahn. congress wants to hear from mcgahn because he's so prominently mentioned in the special counsel's findings. in fact just tonight there's this, michael schmidt writing in

information he wants, especially beyond the personal returns from the trump businesses. and that surely took quite a while to figure out exactly which trump businesses to go after. >> what do you make, lawrence, of the fact -- especially because you've known him for a long time. what do you make of the fact that he's not doing any interviews at all about this strategy or about this request he's now made of the irs? not only did he not do any interviews leading up to it, but he's not doing any interviews on tv, doesn't appear to be doing any print interviews, either. >> he is the mother of house chairman. i think he understands the position he's in, i think he understands that he has a unique power. he has a superpower. he has a power that no other chairman in the house has. so i think he's respecting his power, and i think he's treating it as something that shouldn't be -- shouldn't appear to be a way that he's trying to get attention to himself. what is very, very clear is that the chairman of the ways and means committee is not guilty of trying to get attention for himself this year. >> ex

come out and say the house should begin impeachment proceedings against president donald trump a somewhat she read -- based on what she read in the mueller report. that is different from nancy pelosi in another house leadership, that we should begin otherigations and look at things in the mueller report. it was before and, a lot of them are trying to hang back and fix campaign issues. bernie sanders put out a couple of tweets on the report but did not answer questions from reporters at his rally yesterday in south carolina. hisid not mention it in speech is appears bit overworked also said people don't ask about it on the campaign trail. a distinct difference. we will see of it helps elizabeth one a little more support. 20 presidential candidates for democrats? we are approaching that i know. >> on wednesday, that will be the big elephant jumping into the pull. the motor report, i think a lot of people who have gone on the campaign trail and talked to voters themselves say repeatedly they want to hear about issues, they want to know, if they are democrats, who is person more capa

inside trump world. those inside the white house are wondering who among them will be outed. who has given evidence against the man in the oval office. nbc news is reporting that current and former white house official who is spoke to pluler's prosecutors are worried that thursday's report will expose them as the source of damaging information against the president. according to several witnesses of concern is how trump and allies react with who shared information with mueller. one former official said they got asked questions and told the truth and now they are worried the wrath will follow. william barr stated that the special counsel interviewed approximately 500 witnesses throughout the investigation and among them numerous current and former trump administration officials cooperated with prosecutors voluntarily and any of them could have provided damning testimony against the president. they include officials like don mcgahn and chiefs of staff reince priebus and most likely of all, michael flynn. what did he tell the prosecutors. current officials like jared kushner, stephen mi

happen if donald trump is not inaugurated a second time on the next inauguration day. if a democrat is inaugurated on the next inauguration day. why that will be the worst day in donald trump's life. t the things that donald trump now has stacked up that can fall on him, the day he is no longer president. that's what we'll considerate the end of this hour. and there are a bunch of those things now. but today, william barr came into his second tour of duty as a republican attorney general with a relatively solid reputation in the legal community specially the republican legal community in washington, d.c. the image packagers of william barr were telling the world that they would now see a more scholarly approach to the work of the attorney general than we saw under one of the worst and least qualified attorneys general in history, jeff sessions. but as of tonight, william barr is seeming at least as trumpian as jeff sessions if not more so. and the reviews from legal scholars are condemning. professor laurence tribe tweeted today barr has no shape. he's become a caricature of a lawyer a

story in august of 2016 which said that senior u.s. intelligence officials told trump that foreign adversaries, including russia, were trying to infiltrate the campaign. what we don't know is how much detail they went into with donald trump and the campaign. we don't know. but we do know that they were informed according to our reporting. >> and why would barr, harry, launch a review of his own, if the i.g. is already looking into it. why double up? >> there is not an easy good answer on that. and, in fact, to my knowledge, and i've talked to a number of people now, it is unprecedented. sure, if you have concerns about the facts, you wait and wait until the i.g. report is done and then you get the facts and then you can conclude that is absolutely standard procedure. maybe that is all he meant. maybe he means he's worried about the issue in the abstract. he's trying to get up to speed so when the i.g. report comes in a month or two, then it is fine. or maybe he means i want to make sure that our procedures are fine. if, however, he means i want to look at the investigators, the ind

starts now. >>> tonight the threat from russia that donald trump won't discuss as a former cabinet secretary reportedly wasn't allowed to bring it up around the president. our security experts are here with us tonight to talk about the danger that russia poses to our next election. >>> plus the dual roles on display from this president. victim of a witch hunt, never getting credit for his accomplishments versus the victor totally exonerated if you ask him. and taking on angry democrats and investigators. >>> and the new michael cohen recordings among our other stories tonight as we are joined by four pulitzer prize winners over the course of the next hour as "the 11th hour" gets under way on a wednesday night. >>> well, good evening once again from our nbc news headquarters here in new york. day 825 of the trump administration. and a new report from "the new york times" about this president and 2020, our election that year is raising alarms. it points to an unwillingness to focus on a potential russian threat to our next presidential election, and it raises concerns about trump's a

support behind the former vice president. and that endorsement isn't sitting well this president trump. president trump is lashing out at biden and also at unions as a war of words erupts on twitter. cnn's arlette is on the ground. we know the president kicked things off. the vice president isn't packbag down. what's going on? >> reporter: joe biden won't take the stage for a few more hours. you've already seen this back and forth playing out on twitter between president trump and the former vice president. take a look at a few of those tweets that have come up. one of the issues that president trump is highlighting is the fact that the international association of firefighters has endorsed joe biden today. the first major labor group to get involved in the presidential primary contest. and the president was tweeting saying that the leadership of those unions will always support democrats, even though the membership wants me. some things never change. now, biden fired back himself in a tweet saying i'm sick of this president bad mouthing unions. we need a president who honors them and

the big trump reason for never releasing his tax returns is that he was being audited. we never knew if that was true during the campaign. but we do nope exactly what's happening to donald trump's tax returns right now. but the lesson of how barack obama handled his tax returns when they were being audited is what we're going to save for the end of this hour. it's an important lesson to consider this week. deadline week for the trump tax returns. measuring the chaos level in the trump white house has never been an exact science but it seems that each successive white house chief of staff has made matters worse, much worse. john kelly was brought in as white house chief of staff to control the chaos that exploded under the first white house chief of staff reince priebus and now mick mulvaney's as the third is reaching new levels of chaos tonight. president trump is now on the attack against his own administration. especially anyone involved in the job of controlling the southern border. the president got rid of his homeland security secretary kristin nielsen last night. so far the pre

moments, the 2020-teen first response. they are already blaming trump. we put together an amazing panel. you are not going to see it anywhere else on television tonight. the conversation you don't want to miss. why is barack obama running from the idea of joe biden running. victor davis thinks he knows and is here to explain. finally they have staked out dangerous positions on immigration. but his latest language is just ridiculous. it is despicable or irresponsible. s someone who has followed him from the start will explain what's going on. but first the chuck nanci and joe show.ck n that's the focus of tonight's angle. >>> tomorrow seeker nancy pelosi and chuck schumer return to the. white house for a meeting with president trump. this time it is about an infrastructure tale. in a moment, i'm going to show you what the showdown is about. here's a guy that spent eight years working there, joe biden. he tried to convince you this time he has all of the answers. but what is in his pitch in this phenomenal trump economy? >> i think we have to, i think we have to rethink how we defin

news what's going on in the treasury department and the irs with donald trump's tax returns. it is very serious news for receive mnuchin. we can only hope his lawyers have already told him about this. >> we are in a weird netherworld where they are clearly breaking the law and nobody knows how the law is ultimately going to get enforced here. it's not the sort of thing will likely be allowed to slide. >> david cay johnson has dug out yet another piece of the tax code that relates to in that i didn't know about. this is great for me because i've learned about a couple provisions i knew nothing about. one reason i knew nothing about them the section richie neal is using is a controversial portion of the tax code that has never been challenged. once you challenge it, some other pieces start jumping out at you and it can get very scary for anyone messing around this. >> you are in your happy place. >> david cay johnson will join us tonight with very important new reporting that he has done on the legal risks that secretary of the treasury steven mnuchin is running tonight by delaying t

how president trump's insecurity over his election victory has made any cabinet level discussion or oval office discussion of ongoing russian interference difficult, if not impossible. a government official telling the lead's jake tapper that it is, quote, like pulling teeth to get the white house to focus on, quote, on the ongoing threat of russian election interference. not what happened in 2016, which the president has still not convincingly accepted, but what could happen in 2020 in terms of foreign interference in the next election. this same official saying to jake tapper, in general, senior white house staff felt it wasn't a good idea to bring up issues related to russia in front of the president. now, what makes this so startling is that top officials in this administration are well aware of the threat. >> the warning signs are there. the system is blinking, and it is why i believe we are at a critical point. it was in the months prior to september, 2001, when according to then-cia director george tenet, the system was blinking red. and here we are two decade -- nearly two d

his campaign with a shot across the bow. joe biden, evoking president trump's response to the deadly white supremacist violence in charlottesville. a moment that will forever be a flash point in the trump presidency. >> he said there were "some very fine people on both sides" very fine people on both sides? with those words the president of the united states assigned a moral equivalence between those spreading hate and those with the courage to stand against it. and in that moment i knew the threat to this nation was unlike any i had ever seen in my lifetime. >> so that's it. here's a question. which charlottesville event will decide the direction of this country? will it be the president's defense of white supremacists? or will it be biden standing in opposition at the very start of his campaign? framing the choice in 2020 as one that will define the character of this country. >> we are in the battle for the soul of this nation. i believe history will look back on four years of this president and all he embraces as an abhorrent moment in time. but if we give donald trump eight years

now. >>> president trump cursing and ranting about the, quote, crazy mueller report, after the special counsel painted a picture of a president saved from himself by disobedient staffers and a white house culture dominated by dishonesty. >>> breaking today, a top democrat issues a subpoena to try to get the full mueller report. he calls it a road map to investigate this president. might this lead to impeachment? and is that wise for democrats. >>> plus, 14 investigations. what legal perils lie behind those redacted lines for president trump and his associates? >>> i'm jake tapper. if you thought the mueller report was the end, it really might just be the beginning. house democrats have issued a subpoena today to obtain the full report. all the underlying evidence and zero redactions. the democrats are now faced with the question of what to do next, after robert mueller made it clear he found no direct evidence of any member of the trump team conspiring with russia to criminally interfere with the 2016 election, while also describing numerous incidents of potential obstruction o

capable of beating donald trump and then what issues what , are your position on issues? how are you going to preserve access to health care, what will you do about workers rights? it is a long agenda. the ability to break out is a big challenge in an enormous field. which is why i think elizabeth warren took the outlier position on impeachment. host: let me go to that point. this is the headline from politico.com. as each candidate tries to find his or her own path or lame to get to the nomination, where does this put the massachusetts democrat? linda: she faces a really tough challenge. she is from massachusetts, right next to new hampshire. but she's up against bernie sanders who is from vermont, and bernie ran last time and did quite well, better than expected. frankly i think if elizabeth warren does not win the new hampshire primary, she is in big trouble. so she is i think coming out early raised a lot of money and , did well on the money front, and is very well organized, has top-tier staff, and this is a big challenge for her to break out and if not win new hampshire do very well.

"outfront" tonight trump looking for payback. 29 thundershowers after the damning mueller report came out the president lashes out as the report sinks in trump tweeting it's now time to turn the tables and bring justice to some very sick and dangerous people who have committed very serious crimes. perhaps even spying or at the treezen. turn the tables? look, that's a serious threat but it's coming from the president of the united states. and that's after he completely ripped the mueller report apart. the president calls the report factored and totally untrue. total b.s. within abthen temperature trump taq it further calling to it crazy mueller report. here i
