SHOW" STARTS RIGHT NOW. >>> THANKS FOR JOINING THUS
HOUR. STEEL COMES FROM IRON.
IRON COMES FROM IRON ORE. AND IRON ORE YOU DIG OUT OF THE
GROUND. THE LARGEST-KNOWN BUT UNTAPPED
IRON ORE DEPOSIT IN THE WHOLE WORLD IS IN THIS ONE.
IT'S IN THE NATION OF GUINEA. A GUINEA IS IN A COUNTRY IN WEST
AFRICA. SORT OF SURROUNDS SIERRA LEONE.
BORDERS LIBERIA. IT'S ONE OF THE POOREST COUNTRY
IN THE WORLD, GUINEA IS. AND THAT IS A STARK THING WHEN
YOU HAVE SOME OF THE MOST IMPRESSIVE UNTAPPED NATURAL
RESOURCES IN THE WORLD. BUT GUINEA GOT INDEPENDENCE FROM
FRANCE IN 1958. AND THEN THEY STARTED
ESSENTIALLY A LONG CYCLE OF SUFFERING UNDER DICTATORS WHO
RULED FOR LIFE AND WHO TOOK A LONG TIME TO DIE.
THEIR FIRST LEADER TOOK POWER UPON INDEPENDENCE IN 1958.
HE STAYED IN POWER FROM 1958 UNTIL HE DIED IN 1984.
26 YEARS LATER. THEN AS SOON AS THEY WERE RID OF
HIM, THEY GOT ANOTHER DICTATOR IN 1984.
AND HE HELD ON FOR 24 YEARS. UNTIL HE DIED TOO IN 2008.
BUT FOR ALL THE PROBLEMS THAT GUINEA HAS HAD AS A COUNTRY, FOR
ALL THAT -- ALL THE CHALLENGES IT HAS STRUGGLED THROUGH,
GUINEA'S NATURAL RESOURCES HAVE NOT REALLY BEEN A HELP THUS FAR.
YES, THEY DO HAVE THE WORLD'S LARGEST UNTAPPED DEPOSITS OF
IRON ORE BUT THAT HAS NOT NECESSARILY TURNED OUT TO BE A
GOOD THING FOR THEM. MOSTLY WHAT IT HAS TURNED OUT TO
BE FOR THEM IS A SCANDAL AND A CRIME.
AND NOW THAT PART OF IT IS BECOMING PART OF OUR
PRESIDENTIAL POLITICS HERE IN AMERICA.
REPORTER JESSE DRUCKER HAS A REMARKABLE PIECE THAT JUST
POSTED THIS AFTERNOON IN THE "NEW YORK TIMES."
IT'S ABOUT MORE POTENTIALLY CRIMINAL TRAILING ENDS THAT SEEM
TO HAVE FOLLOWED OUR NEW FIRST FAMILY INTO THEIR NEW LIVES IN
THE WHITE HOUSE. AND ALTHOUGH A LOT OF THAT STORY
IS ABOUT THIS REMOTE WEST AFRICAN COUNTRY OF GUINEA, MY
FAVORITE PART OF THE STORY ACTUALLY TAKES PLACE IN
JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA. AT THE JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA,
AIRPORT. JUST A FEW YEARS AGO, 2013, THE
WIDOW OF ONE OF THE PAST DICTATE
ERS OF DINNY, THE WIDOW OF THE DICTATOR WHO DIED IN 2008, SHE
BECAME A COOPERATING WITNESS FOR THE FBI.
ONE DAY IN THE SPRING OF 2013, SHE PUT ON A WIRE.
THE FBI WIRED HER UP SO THEY COULD SURVEIL AND TAPE HER
CONVERSATION. AND SHE WENT TO THE JACKSONVILLE
AIRPORT. AND SHE HAD A MEETING AT A DINER
AT THE JACKSONVILLE AIRPORT WITH A REPRESENTATIVE FROM A LARGE
MINING COMPANY WITH INTERESTS IN HER HOME COUNTRY AND IN THAT BIG
IRON ORE DEPOSIT. IN 2008, GUINEA HAD AWARDED TO
THIS COMPANY THE EXPLORATION RIGHTS TO HALF OF THAT GIGANTIC
DEPOSIT OF IRON ORE. IT WAS A A LITTLE BIT OF AN
UNUSUAL DEAL AT THE TIME BECAUSE THE GUINEAN GOVERNMENT HAD
PREVIOUSLY AWARDED ALL OF THE RIGHTS FOR THAT MINE TO A
TOTALLY DIFFERENT COMPANY, BUT THEN INEXPLICABLY, A FEW YEARS
LATER THEY JUST SORT OF CHANGED THEIR MIND AND DECIDED THAT HALF
THE RIGHTS WOULD NOW GO TO THIS OTHER COUNTRY.
IT APPEARED AT THE TIME TO BE SORT OF A STRANGE DEAL.
BUT NOW WE KNOW WHY IT SEEMED WEIRD.
BECAUSE IT WAS WEIRD. THE GUINEAN GOVERNMENT NOW SAYS
THAT STRANGE DEAL HAPPENED, THAT THE AWARDING OF HALF THE RIGHTS
TO THAT MINE HAPPENED, ACCORDING TO THE GUINEAN GOVERNMENT,
BECAUSE OF A HUGE BRIBE. PAID BY THE COMPANY WHO GOT THE
MINING RIGHTS. THEY SAID THE COMPANY THAT GOT
THE RIGHTS TO HALF OF THAT IRON ORE DEPOSIT, THEY SAY THAT
COMPANY PAID MRS. DICTATOR $8 MILLION.
IN EXCHANGE FOR THEM GETTING THOSE RIGHTS.
NOW THE FBI EVENTUALLY GOT INVOLVED IN INVESTIGATING THAT
BRIBE. AND AT THAT AIRPORT DINER IN
JACKSONVILLE, IN 2013, THEY SET UP MRS. DICTATOR TO WEAR A WIRE
WHILE SHE MET WITH A REPRESENTATIVE OF THAT MINING
COMPANY. AND WHILE SHE WAS MEETING WITH
THAT GUY FROM THE MINING COMPANY, HE TOLD HER IN THAT
CONVERSATION THAT SHE SHOULD DESTROY ALL THE PAPERWORK THAT
SHE HAD THAT DOCUMENTED ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE BRIBE.
AND SHE WAS WIRED WHEN HE TOLD HER THAT.
SHE WAS A COOPERATING WITNESS. SO THE FBI GOT ALL OF HIS
INSTRUCTIONS TO HER ABOUT THAT ON TAPE.
AND THEY NAILED HIM. THEY NAILED THIS GUY FROM THE
MINING COMPANY. CHARGED.
PLED GUILTY. PRISON TIME.
AND THE COMPANY HAS SINCE TRIED TO SAY, OH, THAT GUY WAS JUST A
ROGUE ACTOR, HE WASN'T SPEAKING ON OUR BEHALF, WE DON'T KNOW
ANYTHING ABOUT WHAT HE WAS TALKING ABOUT, NOTHING TO DO
WITH US. BUT THAT SAME MINING COMPANY IS
ALSO ALLEGED BY THE FBI TO HAVE PAID ANOTHER LARGE BRIBE TO
ANOTHER OFFICIAL IN THE GUINEAN GOVERNMENT THE FOLLOWING YEAR.
AND THE REASON YES WE KNOW THAT IS BECAUSE OF A TRIAL WHAT'S
HAPPENING RIGHT NOW THIS WEEK IN NEW YORK CITY.
THE FORMER MINING MINISTER OF GUINEA IS ON TRIAL IN NEW YORK
RIGHT NOW. AND THE FBI ALLEGES IN DOCUMENTS
THAT HAVE BEEN MADE PUBLIC IN CONJUNCTION WITH THIS TRIAL,
WHICH HAVE NOW BEEN REPORTED ON BY THE "NEW YORK TIMES," THE FBI
ALLEYS THAT THIS MINING COMPANY WAS INVOLVED IN ARRANGING THE
BRIBERY. SO THERE WAS THE BRIBE PAID TO
MRS. DICTATOR, WITHIN ONE YEAR OF THAT ANOTHER BRIBE PAID TO
ANOTHER GUINEAN GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL.
RELATED TO THIS IRON ORE MINE. NOW WHY IS THIS TRIAL HAPPENING
IN MANHATTAN? ONE NICE THING ABOUT BEING THE
BANKING CAPITAL OF THE WORLD IS THAT FINANCIAL CRIMES ALL OVER
THE WORLD CAN OFTEN TECHNICALLY BE CHARGED IN NEW YORK IF
PROSECUTORS WANT TO CHARGE THEM THERE, BECAUSE MORE OFTEN THAN
NOT, ANY TIME SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS OF MONEY MOVE AROUND
ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD, THAT MONEY IN SOME WAY WILL TOUCH A
NEW YORK BANK AS PART OF THE TRANSIT OF FUNDS.
THAT ALSO MEANS WHEN IT COMES TO CRIMES LIKE BRIBING GOVERNMENT
OFFICIALS IN OTHER COUNTRIES, EVEN WHEN THE PEOPLE INVOLVED
ARE NOT AMERICANS, THE FBI IS OFTEN ON IT.
EVEN WHEN IT IS NOT AMERICANS INVOLVED.
EVEN WHEN THE BRIBERY TAKES PLACE FAR AWAY.
IF YOU ARE INVOLVED IN FINANCIAL FRAUD OR CORRUPTION OF ANY
SIGNIFICANT SCALE, NO MATTER WHERE YOU ARE IN THE WORLD, IF
THE BANKING SYSTEM IS USED AT ALL IN YOUR FRAUD, YOUR
CORRUPTION, YOUR BRIBERY, IT IS LIKELY THAT THE FBI IS ON IT.
AND YOU MAY FIND YOURSELF ON TRIAL IN THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT
OF NEW YORK. AND IN THIS CASE THEY REALLY DID
WIRE MRS. DICTATOR AT THE JACKSONVILLE AIRPORT FOR WHAT
THAT GUY FROM THE MINING COMPANY OTHERWISE THOUGHT WAS AN
INNOCUOUS MEETING IN A FOREIGN COUNTRY.
BUT THAT UBIQUITOUS PRESENCE OF THE FBI AMID THAT KIND OF
FINANCIAL CRIME, THAT MEANS IF YOU ARE IN AMERICAN BUSINESS,
IT'S PRETTY EASY TO GET CAUGHT IF WHAT YOU DO WRONG IS THAT YOU
END UP DOING BUSINESS WITH CORRUPT PEOPLE OVERSEAS.
IF YOU END UP DOING BUSINESS WITH OTHER COMPANIES, WITH OTHER
PEOPLE, WHO PAY BRIBES OVERSEAS, IF YOU DO BUSINESS WITH
OTHERWISE CORRUPT BUSINESSES WHO LAUNDER MONEY OR FINANCE ILLEGAL
ACTIVITIES OR WHATEVER IT IS, WHETHER OR NOT YOU YOURSELF ARE
CROOKED, AMERICAN FIRMS AND INDIVIDUALS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO
DO BUSINESS WITH CROOKED BUSINESSES OVERSEAS.
THAT'S ILLEGAL UNDER OUR OWN LAWS.
THAT'S ILLEGAL UNDER THE FOREIGN CORRUPT PRACTICES ACT.
YOU MAY NEVER BRIBE ANYBODY, BUT IF YOU'RE DOING BUSINESS WITH
SOMEBODY WHO'S BEEN PAYING BRIBES OVERSEAS, YOU'RE GOING TO
GET NAILED. PEOPLE GET CAUGHT FOR THAT, THE
FOREIGN CORRUPT PRACTICES ACT, IT'S A BIG DEAL.
AND FRANKLY IT FOLLOWS THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION AROUND.
BECAUSE OF DEALS LIKE THEIR NOW-ABANDONED PROJECT IN THE
CAPITAL CITY OF AZERBAIJAN WHICH WAS RECENTLY REPORTED OUT IN
EXQUISITE DETAIL BY ADAM DAVIDSON AT THE NEW YORKER.
IN THAT AZERBAIJAN PROJECT THE PROBLEM FOR THE TRUMP
ORGANIZATION THAT IS THEY PARTNERED WITH THE FAMILY OF A
NOTORIOUSLY CORRUPT GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL WHO, FOR GOOD MEASURE,
HAS FINANCIAL TIES TO THE IRANIAN REVOLUTIONARY GUARD, HM.
WELL, THANKS TO THIS NEW REPORTING FROM THE "NEW YORK
TIMES" AND ALSO FROM BLOOMBERG NEWS TODAY, WE NOW KNOW THAT THE
FOREIGN CORRUPT PRACTICES ACT MAY NOT JUST BE FOLLOWING THE
TRUMP ORGANIZATION AROUND DEALS LIKE ITS ABANDONED HOTEL PROJECT
IN AZERBAIJAN. .
WE NOW KNOW THE FOREIGN CORRUPT PRACTICES ACT MAY ALSO BE
FOLLOWING AROUND JARED KUSHNER. THAT'S BECAUSE AS THIS MINING
MINISTER FROM GUINEA IS ON TRIAL RIGHT NOW IN NEW YORK, WITH THE
FBI SAYING HE FACILITATED BRIBES, PAID FOR BY THAT MINING
COMPANY, FOR THEM TO GET RIGHTS TO THAT BIG IRON ORE DEPOSIT IN
GUINEA, AT THE SAME TIME THAT THAT TRIAL IS HAPPENING IN NEW
YORK, THE "NEW YORK TIMES" AND BLOOMBERG NEWS ARE NOW BOTH
REPORTING THAT THE FAMILY WHO OWNS THAT MINING COMPANY?
THAT MINING COMPANY WHICH HAS BEEN UNDER FBI INVESTIGATION IN
THESE BRIBERY CASES AND WHICH, ACCORDING TO THE "TIMES" IS
ALSO -- HAS ALSO BEEN INVESTIGATED DIRECTLY UNDER THE
FOREIGN CORRUPT PRACTICES ACT, THAT MINING FIRM IS RUN BY THE
STEINMETZ FAMILY. AND AS OF TONIGHT, WITH THIS NEW
REPORTING, WE NOW KNOW THAT THE STEINMETZ FAMILY HAS ALSO
APPARENTLY BEEN JARED KUSHNER'S SECRET FINANCIER FOR OVER $100
MILLION IN VERY RECENT NEW YORK CITY REAL ESTATE PURCHASES.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE CROOKED YOURSELF AS AN AMERICAN COMPANY,
YOU CANNOT LEGALLY DO BUSINESS WITH COUNTRIES ABROAD AND WITH
INDIVIDUAL BUSINESSMEN ABROAD WHO PAY BRIBES, WHO LAUNDER
MONEY, OR OTHERWISE ENGAGE IN FOREIGN CORRUPT PRACTICES.
SO WE'VEVE GOT A NEW DEPARTMENTF JUSTICE NOW.
HELMED BY TRUMP APPOINTEES FROM ATTORNEY GENERAL JEFF SESSIONS
ON DOWN. DEPUTY ATTORNEY GENERAL WAS JUST
CONFIRMED YESTERDAY, ROD ROSENSTEIN.
THERE'S BEEN LOTS OF ATTENTION TO WHAT IT WILL MEAN TO HAVE THE
FBI INVESTIGATIONS INTO THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN POTENTIALLY
COLLUDING WITH RUSSIA NOW OVERSEEN BY A GUY WHO IS A TRUMP
APPOINTEE. BUT NOW WE ALSO KNOW THAT THE
TRUMP APPOINTEE IS RUNNING THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT, HAVE ALSO
JUST INHERITED ONGOING CORRUPTION, BRIBERY, AND FOREIGN
CORRUPT PRACTICES ACT INVESTIGATIONS INTO THE FAMILY
WHOSE MONEY ALLOWED JARED KUSHNER TO ROUGHLY DOUBLE HIS
REAL ESTATE HOLDINGS SINCE 2012 IN NEW YORK CITY TO THE TUNE OF
MORE THAN $100 MILLION. THE STEINMETZ FAMILY AND THEIR
WEB OF COMPANIES AND THEIR PROBLEMS WITH THESE BRIBERY
SCANDALS, THESE BRIBERY INVESTIGATIONS, THIS HAS NOT
BEEN SECRET. IT WAS FIRST REPORTED BY "THE
FINANCIAL TIMES" IN 2012. IT WAS REPORTED EVERYWHERE
THEREAFTER, PARTICULARLY IN THE FINANCIAL PRESS.
BUT EVEN AFTER THAT REPORTING IN 2012 AND I IN 2013, JARED KUSHN
JUST KEPT MAKING BIGGER AND BIGGER DEALS WITH THEM.
IN 2014, JARED KUSHNER APPEARS TO HAVE BECOME EMBARRASSED OR
MAYBE CAUTIOUS ENOUGH THAT HE STOPPED PUTTING THE STEIN METS
FAMILY NAME ONTO HIS DEALS, INTO THE PAPERWORK FOR HIS DEALS.
I DON'T KNOW, MAYBE THEIR GUY GOING TO PRISON AFTER THE DINER
CONVERSATION AT THE JACKSONVILLE AIRPORT SENT UP SOME RED FLAGS
SO IT WAS TIME TO TAKE THEIR NAME OUT OF THE PAPERWORK.
BUT STILL, EVEN AFTER THAT, EVEN WHEN HE GOT MORE SUBTLE ABOUT
USING THEIR NAME IN HIS REAL ESTATE FILINGS AND HIS FINANCIAL
FILINGS, HE STILL KEPT DOING MORE AND MORE AND BIGGER AND
BIGGER DEALS WITH THEM. INCLUDING THIS RELATIVELY NEW
REAL ESTATE DEAL IN JERSEY CITY. I SHOULD MENTION THAT THIS ONE
AS TRUMP-BRANDED PROPERTY. SO WE'RE CLOSING IN ON THE
100-DAY MARK FOR THE NEW ADMINISTRATION.
IN THE CAMPAIGN, TRUMP PROMISED ACTION ON TEN DIFFERENT MAJOR
PIECES OF LEGISLATION IN THE FIRST 100 DAYS OF HIS
PRESIDENCY. HE HAS ACHIEVED NONE OF THOSE
TEN LEGISLATIVE GOALS. NONE OF THEM.
NOW ALSO APPEARS THAT HIS PLEDGE TO BUILD A WALL ON OUR SOUTHERN
BORDER, APPEARS THAT IS ALSO DEAD OR AT LEAST INDEFINITELY
DELAYED. ONE PIECE OF MAJOR LEGISLATION
THEY DID TRY TO PASS WAS OF COURSE THE REPEAL OF OBAMACARE.
THAT DIDN'T EVEN COME UP FOR A VOTE IN THE
REPUBLICAN-CONTROLLED HOUSE BEFORE IT BLEW UP.
WE'RE GOING TO BE TALKING LATER ON THIS HOUR ABOUT WHETHER THEY
MIGHT BE POTENTIALLY LAUNCHING A SUCCESSFUL SNEAK ATTACK RIGHT
NOW TO BRING THAT LEGISLATION BACK AT THE LAST MINUTE BEFORE
THE 100-DAY BENCHMARK. BUT TODAY'S BIG REVEAL FROM THE
ADMINISTRATION WAS WHAT EVERYBODY WAS CALLING THEIR TAX
PLAN. THEIR TAX PLAN.
IT'S ONE PAGE. AND HERE'S A HINT.
THE U.S. TAX CODE IS THOUSANDS OF PAGES LONG.
IF THIS IS YOUR TAX CODE, IF YOUR PLAN FOR COMPREHENSIVELY
OVERHAULING THAT TAX CODE IS ONE PAGE, DOUBLE-SPACED, WITH DEEP
INDENTS AND ALMOST NO NUMBERS, THAT'S A LOT OF THINGS BUT
THAT'S NOT ACTUALLY A TAX PLAN. THAT'S NOT A PLAN FOR
OVERHAULING THOUSANDS OF PAGES OF THE U.S. TAX CODE.
AS A HINT ABOUT THEIR SERIOUSNESS ON THIS TAX ISSUE,
IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THEY ARE UNVEILING WHAT THEY WANT YOU TO
CALL THEIR TAX PLAN. THEY ARE UNVEILING THAT TODAY
BEFORE THEY HAVE EVEN BOTHERED TO NOMINATE ANYONE TO BE IN
CHARGE OF TAX POLICY IN THIS ADMINISTRATION.
THE TREASURY DEPARTMENT HANDLES TAX ISSUES.
THEY HAVEN'T EVEN PICKED SOMEBODY YET FOR THE JOB OF
RUNNING TAX POLICY IN THE TREASURY DEPARTMENT.
BUT STILL THEY ROLLED OUT THIS ONE-PAGE DOCUMENT TODAY AS IF
THEY'VE SHOWED A TAX PLAN BEFORE THE 100 DAYS.
WHICH IS RIDICULOUS. THE ONLY SUBSTABTIVE THING WE
GOT OUT OF THIS TODAY IS SOMETHING THAT MADE ME FRANKLY
QUITE GLAD THAT WE REVEALED TWO PAGES OF THE PRESIDENT'S 2005
TAX RETURNS ON THIS SHOW A FEW WEEKS AGO.
BECAUSE ONE THING WE CAN TELL FROM HIS ONE-PAGE PRESS RELEASE
ABOUT HIS SUPPOSED TAX PRIORITIES TODAY IS THAT EVEN
UNDER THIS SKELETAL OUTLINE THEY RELEASED TODAY, HE IS PROPOSING
SOMETHING THAT WOULD HAVE SAVED HIM UPWARDS OF $30 MILLION JUST
IN THAT ONE YEAR. FOR WHICH WE GOT THOSE TWO PAGES
OF THAT ONE RETURN. SO THERE'S A LOT TO CHEW ON IN
TERMS OF THE NEW ADMINISTRATION AND WHAT THEY'RE DOING.
WHEN IT COMES TO WHAT THEY ARE SAYING AND WHAT THEY ARE SAYING
THEY ARE GOING TO DO, THERE'S ALMOST NOTHING TO CHEW ON.
HONESTLY, DON'T BOTHER. THEY DIDN'T UNVEIL A TAX PLAN
TODAY. THEY DIDN'T DO THEIR TEN
PROMISED PIECES OF LEGISLATION. THEY'RE NOT BUILDING A WALL AND
MEXICO'S NOT PAYING FOR IT.
DON'T BOTHER LISTENING TO WHAT THEY'RE SAYING, WATCH WHAT
THEY'RE DOING. WHAT THEY'RE SAYING ABOUT THEIR
OTHER THAN BEHAVIOR AND ACTIONS IS NOT WORTH THE INDIVIDUALLY
DOUBLE-SPACED DEEPLY INDEBTED PIECE OF PAPER IT IS PRINTED ON.
AMID ALL OF THAT, AMID ALL OF THE UNDERSTANDABLE BELTWAY FOCUS
ON THAT STUFF RIGHT NOW, THERE IS A THING THAT IS A BIG DEAL,
AND THAT IS TRULY NEW ABOUT THE FIRST 100 DAYS OF THIS
ADMINISTRATION, AND IT IS SOMETHING WE'VE NEVER HAD BEFORE
IN THIS COUNTRY. IT'S THE RUNNING OF THIS
ADMINISTRATION LIKE IT'S A FAMILY BUSINESS.
A FAMILY BUSINESS THAT IS ALSO KEEPING ITS ACTUAL LITERAL
FAMILY BUSINESSES ON THE OUTSIDE WHILE THEY'RE HOLDING HIGH
POLITICAL OFFICE. I MEAN, A PRESIDENT HAVING AN
OUTSIDE BUSINESS INTEREST WAS LITERALLY A NATIONAL SCANDAL
WHEN THAT OUTSIDE BUSINESS INTEREST WAS SOMETHING AS SIMPLE
AS A PEANUT FARM IN GEORGIA FROM WHICH THE PRESIDENT HAD DIVESTED
HIMSELF. IN THIS CASE IT'S A LARGLARGE-S,
ONGOING, OFTEN INTERNATIONAL SET OF ARRANGEMENTS THAT IN AN
UNSETTLING NUMBER OF CASES SEEM TO HAVE ATTRACTED THE INTEREST
OF THE FBI. WHENEVER THERE'S SCANDAL
ASSOCIATED WITH AN ADMINISTRATION, THERE ARE ALWAYS
WORRIES, WELL-FOUNDED OR NOT,
ABOUT WHETHER THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT AND FBI ARE CAPABLE
OF AN INDEPENDENT AND RIGOROUS INVESTIGATION INTO A PRESIDENT'S
ACTIONS AS PRESIDENT. BUT WHEN A PRESIDENT AND HIS
FAMILY AND THEIR ONGOING BUSINESS RELATIONSHIPS STRAY
INTO DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE TERRITORY, WE REALLY HAVE NO
TEMPLATE AT ALL, WE HAVE NO HELP FROM HISTORY IN TERMS OF WHAT IT
MEANS TO KEEP THOSE THINGS ON TRACK.
AS THAT MINING COMPANY BRIBERY TRIAL ROLLS ON THIS WEEK IN NEW
YORK, AS THAT MINISTER OF MINES GOES ON TRIAL IN THE SOUTHERN
DISTRICT OF NEW YORK OVER THOSE BRIBES ALLEGEDLY PAID BY THAT
MINING COMPANY, SPIN THAT OUT. I MEAN, JARED KUSHNER SAYS THAT
HIS INVOLVEMENT WITH FINANCING FROM THIS FAMILY, DOING HIS REAL
ESTATE DEALS, HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE OTHER PARS OF THAT
FAMILY THAT ARE INVOLVED IN THE MINING STUFF AND THE BRIBERY
INVESTIGATIONS AND EVERYTHING. KUSHNER FOLKS SAY THIS IS
TOTALLY DIFFERENT PART OF THAT FAMILY THAT HE'S WORKING WITH.
BUT WHAT IF IT'S NOT? RIGHT?
WHAT IF THIS CASE THAT'S HAPPENING RIGHT NOW IN NEW YORK,
JUST WHAT IF IT STRETCHES OUT INTO U.S. COMPANIES KNOWINGLY
DOING BUSINESS WITH A COMPANY THAT WAS BRIBING FOREIGN
OFFICIALS. AND THAT FACT THAT THEY WERE
UNDER INVESTIGATION FOR BRIBING FOREIGN OFFICIALS, THAT WAS NO
SECRET. AND ANYBODY CONSIDERING DOING
BUSINESS WNESS WITH THEM SHOULD KNOWN BETTER.
IF IT GOES TO THAT TERRITORY, IF IT GOES TO VIOLATIONS OF THE
FOREIGN CORRUPT PRACTICES ACT, JUST HYPOTHETICALLY, HOW
CONCEIVABLE IS IT TO YOU THAT JEFF SESSIONS WOULD EVER GREEN
LIGHT CHARGES BEING BROUGHT AGAINST JARED?
FOR HIS TIES TO THAT HYPOTHETICAL SCANDAL?
YOU THINK JEFF SESSIONS WOULD DO THAT?
SHOULD HE RECUSE HIMSELF FROM THOSE DECISIONS BECAUSE HE KNOWS
JARED IS THE PRESIDENT'S SON-IN-LAW?
DOES ANYBODY NOT KNOW THAT? FIRST 100 DAYS ARE A
NOW-STANDARDIZED WAY TO MAP THE SUCCESS OR FAILURE OF A NEW
ADMINISTRATION. BUT FOR MANY OF THE MOST
IMPORTANT THINGS THAT ARE NEW ABOUT THIS NEW ADMINISTRATION,
WE ARE TOTALLY OFF THE CHARTS IN TERMS OF PRECEDENT AND IN TERMS
OF KNOWING WHO'S ABOVE THE LAW AND HOW TO STOP THAT FROM
HAPPENING. WE'VE GOT A BIG SHOW TONIGHT.
