She says she will not testify until the fbi investigates claims. Her attorney saying her client wants to cooperate with the Senate Judiciary committee but the process must not be rushed. Its premature to talk about a hearing on monday. And i think people understand that because she has been dealing with the threats, the harassment, and safety of her family. Asking her to come forward in four or five days and sit before the Judiciary Committee on national tv is not a fair process. Fords request for delay seeming to shift the momentum among republicans. Judiciary chairman grassley saying in a statement that nothing the fbi does would have any bearing on what dr. Ford tells the committee. So there is no reason for any further delay. Even senator bob corker, a frequent trump critic, tweeted republicans extended a hand in good faith, if we dont hear from both sides on monday, lets vote. President trump so far maintaining that restraint. He has shown since the accusations against kavanaugh were first revealed. Hopefully the woman will come forward, state her case. They will look at what she had to say from 36 years ago. I dont know about the other party. But judge kavanaughs anxious to do it. Two of Brett Kavanaughs former classmates say they have no recollection of the party where ford says the assault occurred. Ford says both mark judge and Patrick Smythe, thats mark judge there, were at the party, and that judge was in the room when the attack took place. Smythe sent a letter to the Senate Judiciary committee saying he has no knowledge of the party or the alleged improper conduct. Smythe described him as a person of great integrity. In a separate letter, judge writes, quote, Brett Kavanaugh and i were friends but i do not recall the party described in dr. Fords letter. More to the point, i never saw brett act in the manner dr. Ford describes. His memoir of his time as a student at Georgetown Prep drawing much attention. Entitle the wasted tales of a genx drunk which recounts a culture of heavy drink, even blackout drinking at a school, quote, positively swimming in alcohol. Raising questions about whether he could definitively say he has never seen him act like that. If he remembers that incident. Yeah. Blackout drunk episodes in that book. Anita hill who accused thensupreme Court NomineeClarence Thomas of Sexual Harassment in 1991 is weighing in an oped called how to get the kavanaugh hearings right. Now a lay professor, she slams the Senate Judiciary committee. She says the fact that the Committee Still lacks a protocol for vetting Sexual Harassment and assault claims that surfaced during a confirmation hearing suggests that the committee has learned little from the thomas hearing, much less the receipt me too movement. She adds that as judge kavanaugh stands to gain the lifetime privilege of serving on the countrys highest court, he, he has the burden of persuasion and that is only fair. Interesting optics on monday. Meanwhile, President Trump travels this morning to stormravaged north and South Carolina, the region still struggling with epic flooding from hurricane florence. Two detainees being transported by sheriffs deputies were killed tuesday when their vehicle was overtaken by floodwaters. That raised the death toll to 36 with 27 fatalities coming in North Carolina, eight in South Carolina, one in virginia. More now from miguel marquez. Reporter were on the person street bridge theyve had to shut down because officials are concerned about the debris moving underneath the bridge. Were on person street bridge. Up there, that is the grove street bridge. That bridge may have to be shut down, as well, because the river here, the cape fear river, the water is still rising. Has about a foot to go in the next 12 hours or so. They think that it will actually crest. The bigger concern right now is this rail bridge just below us, the csx rail bridge. You see the amount of the waters hitting the bridge, the amount of debris thats gathering in the center of the bridge putting a lot of stress on it. We have a drone up overhead. Person street. It can move over to the train bridge to show exactly how much debris there is gathered around that bridge and how much pressure there is on that bridge. I want to point out one other thing for you here. Theres a street light over here. This is kind of amazing. That is normally where the end of a boat ramp is. It is clearly 20 or 30 feet below that now. One other picture, this is a picture of near downtown fayetteville. Thats about a half mile from where we are right now. That river is moving up toward the downtown area. Theyve not seen anything like this since 1945. They believe downtown will be okay, but they are concerned its getting close to city hall, the Visitors Bureau and businesses downtown, as well. Authorities here say they have done everything they can, and at this point it is sitting back and hoping that everything goes according to plan. Dave, christine . All right. Thank you. President trump standing by his unprecedented order to declassify a host of document and Text Messages related to the russia investigation. Intelligence officials have voiced tornaconcern declassifyi materials in an active investigation could jeopardize sources and methods. The president is not backing off his order to immediately declassify parts of the it for former aide carter page. We want transparency. What i want is i want total transparency. This is a witch hunt. Republicans are seeing it. The democrats know its a witch hunt, too, but they dont want to admit it because its not good politics for them. Democrats expressed profound alarm at the president s order. Even some republicans are uneasy. Senate intel chairman richard burr says he would prefer to keep the documents classified. But he says declassifying is the president s prerogative. The president told hill tv he did not read the documents before ordering them declassified. Didnt read them. Breaking overnight, north and south korea have committed to an era of no war on the korean peninsula. At a joint News Conference in the middle of their planned threeday summit, south korean president moon jaein and north Korean Leader kim jongun announced what moon called a way to achieve denuclearization. Paula hancocks standing by live in seoul. This is a major development. But it comes with a big catch that trump tweeted after midnight the subject to final negotiation iations. Explain that. Reporter thats right. The headlines, its a wideranging agreement. That there is a key icbm test site that will be shut down. Now this is something that President Trump had order mentioned after the singapore summit. Hed been promised by kim jongun, theres no timeline for that. What we have thats new is that they have agreed now, the north koreans, to allow International Experts to verify that. Now beyond that, they have said that they would be willing to shut down the nuclear facility. This would be significant, but they have that caveat. They have put a condition on it saying that it it depends on u. S. Corresponding measures. Pyongyang has wanted a stepbystep denuclearization, quidbo proquestion on quid o quo, which they have not agreed to. That president moon jaein will be going to new york to meet with President Trump on september 24th. He will brief him completely about all of these different branches of the agreement. Were hoping that well get more indication as to exactly what will happen next. An interesting announcement that north and south will bid for the 2032 olympics as a joint bid. Paula hancocks live for us. Thanks. Reporter President Trump says the u. S. Is open to a trade deal with china as beijing retaliates against americas latest round of tariffs. Were having a tremendous impact on china. As you know, were doing a very good job with china. Chinas been taking advantage of the United States for a long time, but china wants to come over and talk, and we were always open to talking. No question the president has kept the pressure on here. The u. S. Slapped tariffs on 200 billion in chinese goods monday. China hit back targeting u. S. Imports like meat, clothes, chemicals, auto parts, and that prompted the president to once again threaten china with more. Even more. An additional 267 billion in goods could be subject to tariffs. That would cover everything the u. S. Buys from china. Even consumer goods that have largely been spared, shoes, electronics, toys. That means if youre putting taxes on everything, that means the consumer will likely pay more. In fact, the Auto Industry warns the tariffs on car parts could raise the price of a new car by several thousand dollars. The latest titfortat could also hurt the future of trade talks. China and the u. S. Had been gearing up to hold a new round this month. A powerful corporate lobby, the business roundtable, warns that tariffs are the wrong way to achieve real reforms. They threaten u. S. Businesses and workers. For now, corporate profits are strong, at a rate of 10 the u. S. Tariffs arent as high as investors feared. So wall street shrugged all this off yesterday.

You know to add to stress, it is the primetime stage for the steelers monday night. They will be on monday night football in five days. Theyre one of the most talented teams in the nfl, no question, but the offthefield drama continues to overwhelm. The all pro running back levian bell is holding out for a longterm deal. Hasnt played a down this season. Hes been seen in miami. He is set to become a free agent in march. Meantime, all pro wide receiver Antonio Brown was reportedly frustrated that he wasnt getting the ball enough. To make things worse, brown did not show up to practice on monday. Thats a huge deal. Obviously it was glaring. He force the his coach answer questions forced his coach to answer questions about his whereabouts. He lit up on twitter to a member who was critical about his offense.

Lawyers for Christine Blasey ford say they want the fbi to investigate her accusations against Brett Kavanaugh before any senate hearing. Breaking overnight, north korea just agreed to shut down a main nuclear site, but theres a big catch. And President Trump visits the carolinas today as the death toll climbs in the Flood Disaster left behind by hurricane florence. Firefighters get into a tugofwar with a tornado of fire. Guess who wins not the hose. Good morning, im Christine Romans. Im dave briggs. The president tweeting last night. The Supreme Court is one of the main reasons i got elected. That is where we begin. The woman accusing supreme Court NomineeBrett Kavanaugh of Sexual Assault says she will not testify to senators until the fbi investigates her claims. The lawyer for Christine Blasey ford telling Anderson Cooper last night that her client wants to cooperate with the Senate Judiciary committee but that the process must not be rushed. Its premature to talk about a hearing on monday. I think people understand that because she has been dealing with the threats, the harassment, and the safety of her family. Asking her to come forward in four or five days and asking her to sit before the Judiciary Committee on national tv is not a fair process. The request for delay seeming to shift momentum among republicans. Judiciary chairman Chuck Grassley saying nothing the fbi does would have any bearing on what dr. Ford tells the committee, so theres no reason for a further delay. Bob corker, frequent trump critic, tweeted republicans extended a hand in good faith. If we dont hear from both sides on monday, lets vote. President trump so far maintaining the restraint he has shown since the accusations against kavanaugh were first revealed. Homey the woman will come forward hopefully the woman will come forward, state her case. They will look at what she had to say from 36 years ago. I dont know about the other party, but judge kavanaughs anxious to do it. Two of Brett Kavanaughs former classmates say they have no recollection of the party where ford says the assault occurred. Ford says both mark judge and Patrick Smythe were at the party and that judge was in the room when the attack took place. Smythe sent a letter to the Senate Judiciary committee saying he has no knowledge of the party or the alleged improper conduct. Smythe described kavanaugh as a person of great integrity. In a separate letter, judge writes, Brett Kavanaugh and i were friends in high school, but i do not recall the party described in dr. Fords letter. More to the point, i never saw brett act in the manner dr. Ford describes. Now judges memoir of his time as a student there at Georgetown Prep is drawing a lot of attention. The memoir is title the wasted tales of a genx drunk. It recounts a culture of heavy drinking at the school, quote, positively swimming in alcohol. And talks about his own blackout drunk blackouts. What would he remember . What credibility does he have in remembering this incidenter not . Anita hill who accused then supreme Court NomineeClarence Thomas in 1991 of Sexual Harassment weighing in with an oped entitled how to get the kavanaugh hearings right. Now a law professor, hill slams the Senate Judiciary committee. She says the fact that the Committee Still lacks a protocol for vetting Sexual Harassment and assault claims that surface during a confirmation hearing suggest that the committee has learned little from the thomas hearing, much less the more recent me too movement. Hillary clinton adds that as judge kavanaugh stands to gain the life hill adds that as judge kavanaugh stands to gain the lifetime appointment he has the burden of persuasion, and that is only fair. Zach, does this happen monday with or without her testimony . Christine blasey ford . And what are the implications for republicans one way or the other . Well, we dont know if the hearing is going to play out. Certainly its scheduled, and republicans could hold a hearing. It doesnt sound like shes going to be there. Im not sure how effective a hearing with just judge kavanaugh would be in this case. Him denying an allegation that we havent heard too much about. That wouldnt probably play very well or at least it wouldnt, you know, give people very much more information. The bottom line, what you need to remember, is republicans want this to happen fast, as fast as possible. That is because the selection coming up. That would change the cam clues for getting calculus for getting a supreme Court Nominee confirmed. They want this to happen. They want it to be kavanaugh, and they want it to happen quickly. That is the motivating factor behind everything going on right now for them. The numbers might not get better for democrats. They could get worse. If put the Supreme Court on the midterm ballot, nothing motivates Republican Voters quite like that. That would be dangerous for those democrats in trump states. But what about the risk for republicans of putting on the show on monday if shes not, there would it look like we just mentioned 1991, anita hill . What came after 1991 since you mentioned it was 2, the year of the woman. It was 1992, the year of the woman. The socalled year of the woman. The number of women senators more than doubled. People like Dianne Feinstein came to office. The two things were at least in the National Consciousness linked. The anita hill trial, call it a trial, the anita hill hearings sort of led into the year of the woman. Is that kind of backlash going to happen right now . I dont know. Probably not if we dont hear from the woman or see her, but you know, this sort of bullying it could come off as bullying, you know, an accuser if they do take it or leave it, you have one chance to testify. And thats all you get. That that might not be such a good the optics could be brutal. You mentioned Dianne Feinstein. Does she have a lot more questions to answer about why she did not ask Brett Kavanaugh questions about the incident when they talked face to face . Yeah, i think thats an interesting point and something republicans are going to continue to bring up. Was she, you know, from the start just trying to delay this and have have a sleeper issue to bring up . I dont think thats probably it. But it certainly is something shell have to answer to or was she trying to protect a womans confidentiality who asked for confidentiality in the process alleged crime, sex assault struggling for months trying to figure out exactly how to reveal it. Lets listen to the president , though. The president yesterday, he didnt say the womans name, which was i think notable. He also said he doesnt think this is something the fbi should be probing. Listen. The democrats have had massive collusion, massive obstruction, and they should be investigated. Why isnt the fbi looking at the dnc server . Okay, what it was calling for was yesterday when the president said i dont think the fbi really should be involved because they dont want to be involved. If they wanted to be, i would circumstantial do th i would certainly do that, as you know, they say this is not really their thing. Dave pulled together a list of all the things that he would like the investigation the investigations he would like the fbi, doj, to be doing. Theres so many, we have to have multiple screens here. What do you make of that . Yeah. Look, he doesnt really want this investigated. So its an obfuscation clearly. If trump wants something investigated by the fbi, he could pick up a phone and figure it out. And you know, the republicans on capitol hill want to give just one opportunity, get this over with, and move on. This is all the motivating factor for all of this, get it done. I want to ask you about the declassification of the document related to the fisa warrant on carter page, the Text Messages related to bruce orr, and comey and this and that. The president says all i want to do is be transparent. He tells that to the hill tv and said he didnt read the documents before declassifying them. What is the goal here from the president . You know, it if youre calling for total transparennen parliamentariansy and your goal transparency and your goal is transparency but your selectively declassifying certain things that you think or hope might make you look good, thats not total transparency of any kind. Could it destabilize the way the fbi goes back things and the entire process. I think thats something to think about there. By the way, some of these things he wants to declassify, theyve already been declassified in a redacted way. I think whats behind that is theres always going to be some other thing to do. Some other shoe to drop in the future. Thats the way a Conspiracy Theory works. The president added he hopes uncovering this corruption at the fbi could be one of his crowning achievements as president. Zach wolf, good to see you, sir. Thanks. Thanks. The president today travels to stormravaged North Carolina and South Carolina this morning. The region still struggling from epic flooding from hurricane florence. Two detainees being transported by sheriffs deputies were killed when the vehicle was overtaken by floodwaters. That raised the death toll to 36 with 276 those fatalities coming in North Carolina, eight in South Carolina, and one in virginia. Lets get more this morning from miguel marquez. Reporter were on the person street bridge in fayetteville. They had to shut it down because engineers are concerned about the debris moving underneath the bridge. Were on the bridge, thats the grove street bridge. That bridge may have to be shut down because of the cape fear river. The water is still rising, has a foot to go in the next 12 hours or so. They think that it will actually crest. The bigger concern is this rail bridge just below us, the csx rail bridge. You see the amount of the waters hitting the bridge and the debris in the Center Putting stress on it. We have a drone up overhead. Person street. It can move over to the train bridge to show you exactly how much debris is gathered and how much pressure there is on the bridge. I want to point out one other thing here. Theres a street light here. Kind of amazing. That is normally where the end of a boat ramp is. It is clearly 20 or 30 feet below that now. And one other picture to show you. This is a picture of right near downtown fayetteville. Thats about a half mile from where we are right now. That river is moving up toward the downtown area. Theyve not seen anything like this since 1945. They believe downtown will be okay, but theyre concerned that its getting close to city hall, their Visitors Bureau, and several businesses in downtown fayetteville, as well.

At a joint News Conference in the middle of their summit, south korean president moon jaein and north Korean Leader kim jongun announced what moon called a way to achieve denuclearization. Paula hancocks live in seoul with the latest. The president up after midnight tweeting about these latest developments. Paula, whats new . Reporter the headlines from this agreement, and it was a very wideranging agreement between north and south korea, was that north korea has decided that it will shut down this site, the key icb test site, the Intercontinental Ballistic Missile test site. Th what is new is they will gyp right is International Experts in to verify the process. On top of that, they said they would be willing to shut down the nuclear facility. This one has a caveat. They put conditions on it saying that the u. S. Has to give corresponding measures. They havent specified a timeline. They havent specified the core responding measures, although we know that north korea wants to have this quid pro quo, this stepbystep denuclearization and want to have a declaration to the end of the korean war. That is what they are pushing washington for. The president tweeted just after midnight and seemed to welcome it. He said it was very exciting. Also pointing out within this wideranging agreement that the two crazy are going to jointly bid for the 2032 summer olympics, also pointing out that there could be more remains of korean war veterans returned. That olympic bid extraordinary considering youve still got prison camps in North Carolina north korea. In north korea. Yeah, interesting development. Thanks. 43 minutes past the hour.
