Meet the Press, 9/25/16:


CHUCK TODD:

Let me start with this, the public perception is that Donald Trump isn't doing the same type of preparation for this debate that Hillary Clinton is. I think Kellyanne Conway, the campaign manager, said he's not been locked up in a cabin for two weeks. Eric Trump, his son, has suggested that he doesn't need to be you know rehearsing flash cards. Are you concerned, though, that the preparation is enough?

GENERAL MIKE FLYNN:

Yeah, so a couple things, the very last thing that John Podesta just said is no individual too big to jail, that should include people like Hillary Clinton. I mean, five people around her have had, have been given immunity, to include her former Chief of Staff. When you are given immunity, that means that you have probably committed a crime. So you know, I don't know how he can sit there and say something like that with all the, the things that have been going around, just swirling around Hillary Clinton--

CHUCK TODD:

Yeah.

I am so interested to know what legal piece he was talking about. (at the press conference today, questioned about Nunes and the White House hanky panky, and whether the President directed his team to find intel to back up his wiretapping claim)


"I DON'T -- I AM NOT AWARE AND I HAVE TO LOOK INTO THAT. AGAIN, THERE ARE TWO SIDES OF THIS. ONE IS THE INFORMATION SIDE AND TWO IS THE POLICIES AND THE ACTIVITY AND LEGAL PIECE OF WHAT HAPPENED. I DON'T -- THOSE ARE BIG BUCKETS IF YOU WILL."

It would irresponsible not to speculate, so to speak.

President Trump and congressional Republicans are poised to roll back a series of Obama-era worker safety regulations targeted by business groups, beginning Monday night with a vote by the Senate to kill a rule that required federal contractors to disclose and correct serious safety violations.

In a narrow result that divided along party lines, the Senate voted 49 to 48 to eliminate the regulation, dubbed the Fair Pay and Safe Workplaces rule. Finalized in August and blocked by a court order in October, the rule would limit the ability of companies with recent safety problems to complete for government contracts unless they agreed to remedies.

The measure to abolish it had already cleared the House. The next step after the Senate vote will be the White House, where Trump is expected to sign it.

A half-dozen other worker safety regulations are in Republican crosshairs, with one headed to the Senate floor as soon as this week. Many are directed at companies with federal contracts. Such companies employ 1 in 5 American workers — meaning the effort could have wide-ranging effects.
