Tara PalmeriHOST
Yeah
Marc CaputoGUEST
... that's a Ken Vogel story, like, The New York Times.
Marc CaputoGUEST
Vogel is just a fanta- I thi- I can't remember if you worked at Politico-
Tara PalmeriHOST
Yeah, I did
Tim MillerHOST
I have more for you on Iran and the midterms, but we, we have a couple more corruption things because it's the Trump administration, just, just for kicks.
Tim MillerHOST
Ken Vogel of The New York Times had this story.
Tim MillerHOST
James Blair and Chris LaCivita, LaCivita a former colleague of mine, um, they're leading a big money midterm advertising campaign for the Trump political operation, but they spent some of the last few days in a small self-governing territory in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Republika Srpska, and, uh, helping the pro-Russian party, naturally, keep their grip on power ahead of the elections there on Sunday, according to people who are not authorized to discuss their Balkan work.
Tim MillerHOST
I mean, you know, this could be like a '90s spoof video.
Kaitlan CollinsHOST
Tonight, President Trump is alternating between distancing himself and defending two of his top political advisors following a New York Times report that they were paid hundreds of thousands of dollars while advising a pro-Russian government.
Kaitlan CollinsHOST
The president first responded to this report in the New York Times by Ken Vogel, writing, Chris LaCivita and James Blair are outside consultants.
Kaitlan CollinsHOST
They do not work for me, and if there's a conflict, I will terminate them immediately.
Kaitlan CollinsHOST
He was responding to that reporting that said Blair and LaCivita, who are also leading Republican efforts to keep control of Congress for the president's outside funding arm, traveled to the Balkans last week and were paid, quote, hundreds of thousands of dollars each to provide counsel on voting issues.
Anderson CooperHOST
It's yet another stop on what has been an exclusively red state campaign map for him recently, which also speaks loudly about the party's view of the broader battlefield.
Anderson CooperHOST
And because control of the Senate could now depend on states like Texas of all places, the president is back there again tonight pushing for his candidate, Pa- uh, Ken Paxton, whom he routinely demeans and who's on newly leaked audio blaming his own campaign troubles on the president's decision to launch a war against Iran.
Anderson CooperHOST
Listen.
Ken PaxtonSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
The war, it's gas prices, it's diesel.
Ken PaxtonSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
So I'd say that's probably the biggest problem in that push rather than food prices and everything else.
Anderson CooperHOST
That audio t- was obtained by Axios.
Anderson CooperHOST
In it, he also calls affordability, quote, "By far our biggest problem." Now, the Paxton campaign calls the leak a non-story and says he was just saying what every Texan already knows, adding, quote, "President Trump is doing everything he can to bring prices down, and Ken Paxton is going to Washington to help him." What his campaign doesn't mention is that the president has called the affordability issue a hoax.
Anderson CooperHOST
Of course, he routinely dismisses affordability as a made-up word.
Erin BurnettHOST
It's a confusing statement, obviously.
Erin BurnettHOST
Out front now, Ken Vogel, The New York Times reporter who broke this story that is obviously causing great consternation in Republican ranks tonight.
Erin BurnettHOST
Ken, so what more can you tell us about this? Blair and LaCivita are out of the United States helping a pro-Putin government stay in power.
Ken VogelGUEST
Yeah, so they were paid by a U.S. law firm that was working for the government of this Republika Srpska.
Nicolle WallaceHOST
But of course, is where we begin the hour with some of our favorite reporters and friends.
Nicolle WallaceHOST
I'm going to bring in New York Times reporter Ken Vogel, who's bylined on the reporting we read from.
Nicolle WallaceHOST
Also joining us, Media Matters for America president Angelo Carusone.
Nicolle WallaceHOST
And joining me at the table for the hour, Puck News senior political columnist, national affairs analyst John Heilemann is back.
Nicolle WallaceHOST
Ken Vogel, first, for people who don't know, Chris LaCivita is a fast zebra.
Ken VogelGUEST
[laughs]
Nicolle WallaceHOST
He's sort of one of the political people who survived and thrived in this let Trump be Trump political era we're living in.
11 MINS LATER
Angelo CarusoneGUEST
So as much as they want to hit Paxton here, they are stuck even by the very substance of the complaint.
