2:11:37Now PlayingMore lies from the Trump White House. Trump said work to add an opulent 90-thousand square foot ballroom would not interfere with the historic East Wing, but video evidence shows backhoes tearing a chunk of the building apart to make way for the entrance to the ballroom. Initially, Trump said...
“It won’t interfere with the current building. It won’t be. It’ll be near it but not
touching it — and pays total respect to the existing building, which I’m the
biggest fan of“..."It’s my favorite. It’s my favorite place. I love it."
A US appeals court could reconsider the ruling allowing Trump to move forward with Portland National Guard troop deployment. The panel lifted the hold on the deployment yesterday but now a judge is requesting a vote on whether the case should be reheard.
We'll ask the brilliant David Cay Johnston about all if it. The Pulitzer Prize winning author and investigative journalist joins in the second hour.
