Friday lisa i cant do that, the dont like it was too good harris fox news contributor, jessica tarlov. Matt schlapp, chairman of the American Conservative Union and former white house political director under george w. Bush. Hello. Matt hello, good to be here again. Harris gray tabby. We have an lot to get to. Matt not much news [laughter] harris we will start with this. New fallout after President Trump denied Speaker Pelosis use of a military aircraft yesterday for a trip to afghanistan with the congressional delegation. A codel, as they call them. Just minutes before they were scheduled to depart yesterday. This come after pelosi called for the president to delay his state of the Union Address, citing concert security concerns amid the shutdown. President trump today tweeted this why would nancy pelosi leave the country with other democrats on a sevenday excursion when 800,000 great people are not getting paid . Also, could somebody please explain to nancy and her big donors in one country that people working on farms grapes will have easy access in. Now, a spokesperson for nancy pelosi is accusing the white house of endangering members of congress and even members of the military, writing the state department provided an updated threat assessment detailing of the president announcing this sensitive travel has significantly increased the danger to the delegation and to the troop security and other officials supporting the trip. A short time ago, senior white house official told fox news, the idea we would leak anything that would put the safety and security of any american at rest is a flat out lie. Meanwhile, the white house announcing last night it will not send a delegation to switzerland for the World Economic forum next week. The president reportedly has his earlier trip to davos. Thats a lot. What is your take on this backandforth, and what does it encompass . Matt what i think most people dont realize is that the executive branch controls military aircraft. When you go on one of these congressional delegations, it is typical that you have to get signoff to get your transport. So nancy pelosi would have to go to the pentagon to get approval for the transport. So its totally within the president s purview to say yes or no to who gets to use that transport. He did in a way if you look at how we did it he did it in a way so as to not put anybody at any sort of security risk. The comeback from nancy pelosi that somehow he did something to put their lives at stake is simply not founded. Melissa come on, it was petty. We all know this is a titfortat, he went back and canceled the aircraft. Matt i dont think its petty. I think its glorious. You know what . [laughter] you cant say you want to open the government and try to force the president to negotiate with him, and go to puerto rico, go to hawaii, go to seven cities. Jessica matt, that wasnt a vacation. Matt she mustve canceled the Union Address. Jessica its puerto rico, thats a lot of visas. Its not as if they went on vacation. Harris let me open this up, senator Lindsey Graham was saying something similar to what most which is intimating. Lets look at his words. One a sophomoric response does not deserve another. Speaker pelosi start to cancel the state of the union is very irresponsible, and blatantly political. Has that trump denying Speaker Pelosi military travel to visit our troops in afghanistan, our allies in egypt and nato, is also inappropriate. He sides on both. Matt i love Lindsey Graham. I think he has been wonderful in the course of the last year. Harris i feel a but coming. Matt he simply wrong about this. You cant say there are 800,000 americans not getting paid, you cant say this is National Security emergency so big you want to cancel the state of the union, and keep leaving the continental United States to go to other things like fundraisers, going on coat jessica visiting trips are not fundraisers. Going to see our nato allies matt i dont care, she was going to other cities, too. Jessica what other cities was she going to . Matt do want to see the itinerary . Jessica i would love to. Matt putting their lives at risk, apparently. Jessica melania took a military plane down to maralago. How do you feel about that . Matt that has nothing to do with the budget negotiations. Jessica people arent working harris here somebody i would like to see work. Lisa . [laughter] lisa thank you. Im just going to be honest. They are both being petty. Lets just be honest about it. They are both being petty. Nancy pelosi took the unprecedented action of inviting President Trump to deliver the state of the union and then canceling it. We all know she was full of it behind your reasoning. For doing so, President Trump was also petty and canceling the trip. Its hilarious. I laughed when i found out what he did. The fact that democrats were on the bus and had to turn around. Its pretty funny. But its petty. What this also demonstrates, how dug in both parties are. I think in terms of looking at if the deal is going to get struck anytime soon, it certainly doesnt look like it. Youve got both you got nancy pelosi and President Trump, who are hardened and who are not really going to back down. When youve got both of these people who are driving the ships, where is the middle . Melissa a kind of even feels like its about more than just Border Security or the wall or whatever at this point. It feels like its about its the site between these two, and what we will see over the next two years. This first headtohead battle. Harris do you think it will be this good custom work i think it will be worse. [laughter] exactly this is the beginning. Melissa whatever issue they clashed over for us was going to be this ugly. Thats what i mean. Whatever issue that came to loggerheads first was going to look like this. Harris when i say, do you think itll be this good . I think rich. I certainly dont mean i want to put that out there. I know theres a lot of sensitivities and emotion. Look at when you have the secretary of state looking for funding so we can keep double mats and others around the world and in the United States working, when you see community spinning together and i can name a couple in the northeast, where they are coming together as the snow storms are coming in. They are thinking about their fellow sisters and brothers who work in the government who arent getting paychecks. And they are outside in the community, trying to help them out at this time, too. Most people have spent everything they have in savings going in and out of the christmas season. Thats what people do. Maybe not every dime, but a month now without pay. So its tough. The president has done a couple of things, matt. He has signed the legislation that the minute this thing is over they get their retro pay. It would be nice if it could be broken up and increment so they arent taxed at a higher level. But who might be a cpa on tv because to mike im just looking out. The everything the president has done is have bipartisan meetings of the white house. He, in fact, has not left. He has not gone any trips like this. Do you want to say its for charity or whatever, how do you see it, matt, and turns of them saying in the political conversation . Matt i agree with melissa, this is the beginning of their election. One of the big things they will be fighting for. If you look at what hes asking for, we have 690 miles of fencing, walling, barriers at the border. Hes asking for Something Like 230 additional miles. Hes asking for a couple billion dollars, 5 billion to do that fencing or to have that securit security. I think this is such a small amount of money for the federal government. His proposal is actually quite modest. I think they should all stay in town, hammer it out, get it don done. Harris jessica, i want to give you last word. We have had centers on i had senator ben cardin, bret baier talked to steny hoyer in the house. They seem to be saying that there are sections of the border where the barrier is working. Jessica absolutely. Chuck schumer has spoken to that, he said he has authorized tens of billions of dollars to go toward Border Security. I would love it if anybody would get together and an end camera. Harris would you be okay with it question marks on wall . Jessica i was a supporter of the gang of 8, the gang of 6 that all deals with fencing, more police, and better addressing asylum claims and having more judges and more representation. Melissa it sound so reasonable. Jessica i do have my moments. [laughter] melissa that agreement, its so reasonable speed when it seems to be trending among some. The five amnesty lisa but asking for 5 billion in the grand scheme of what the government spends every year is a nominal amount of money. They have also asked to lower that number as well. We have the democrats been in the confirmation cluster next we went because i to. The stock of a potential second summit between President Trump and kim jong un, secretary of state mike pompeo met today in washington with a north korean envoy. This, just the day after the president mentioned the threat from north korea is announcing his new Missile Defense strateg strategy. What to expect from todays meeting. And, the 46th annual march for life is underway in the nations capital. Bipartisan lawmakers expected to address the massive crowd. We will take you there, live. Stay tuned.

Melissa the 46th annual march for life now underway in washington with an estimated 100,000 people expected to be part of it. The march for life marks the anniversary of the supreme courts 1973 roe v. Wade decision which made abortion legal across the u. S. President trump reportedly ascending a video message of support to one of the highest profile events organized by the nations opponents to abortion. A Bipartisan Group of lawmakers will also address the crowd. Doug mckelway 11 washington with more. Doug . Hi, melissa. Im always struck by how we organize this event is each and every year. People come out, rain or shine or snow. We did have a little bit of snow in the Washington Area last night. That was committed by the tens of thousands. They been doing so for 46 years. No doubt aided by the fact that many of the Catholic Schools in the Washington Area and will be on have a four day weekend. Many of the young people were bust down and that helps to explained the preponderance of young people. They also feel that momentum is really on their side in the fight many of the compliments for the Prolife Movement during the trump administration. They cite the mexico city polic policy, which was broadened. It blocks u. S. Federal funding for nongovernmental associations that provide Abortion Services abroad. They cite the nomination and confirmation of Justice Gorsuch and cavanaugh , as well as the potential for another retirement or change of the supreme court, perhaps, during the term administration. They also cite dozens of other judicial nominations at the appeals and District Court levels. President trump has done more than any other president has been able to do. I definitely think its in his agenda to get it done, or do something about it. The same with mike pence. I know they are trying. I can see a real future with him being president. President trump has been the best president for the Prolife Movement. He got after him a lot more if it wasnt for speaker ryan. The preachers movement also cites its own momentum they know the democrats now control the house of representatives where they have already knows their intention this term to prevent the Hyde Amendment which provides tax funding for Abortion Services across the country. They also have decided that roe v. Wade, the decision itself which has basically stood the test of time for 46 years. Speak out theyve made chairmans progress across the board for womens education, for womens health, and economic status. Theres no reason to roll that progress back. Democrats also say they have a new weapon in this ageold battle. Its the womens march, which gets going here in cities across the United States tomorrow. There have been some divisions, one of the womens marches have been canceled. They have one of the city of new orleans because of accusations of antisemitism and also a closelyrelationship with the minister the minister farrakhan by some of the leaders of the womens march. It will happen here tomorrow morning and its going strong. Back to you in new york. Melissa doug mckelway, thank you. President trumps legal team slamming explicit but was viewd report saying he told his former attorney, Michael Cohen, to live up tower in moscow. Some are even threatening impeachment if the report is proven true. Here is a statement from House Intelligence Committee chairman, adam shifts. These allegations may prove unfounded, but if true, they would have insubordination and perjury as well as obstruction of justice. Our committee is determined to get to the bottom of this and follow the evidence wherever it may lead. But present terms attorney saying, if you believe cohen, i can get you a great deal on the brooklyn bridge. Lets go left a kevin corke at the white house with more and all of this. Kevin . Melissa, always good to be with you. This report from buzzfeed actually relies on a pair of unnamed sources. These are investigators, folks who are familiar the ongoing investigation, and thats where we are right now. A lot of it is uncorroborated by outside sources, meaning we havent been able to confirm what breastfeed is reporting heres what we know. According to the report, these investigators have knowledge of the ongoing investigation. Although at least one reporter on that team from buzz feet acknowledge that he hasnt seen the material about which his sources have referred. Heres was going on. The piece itself claims that investigators believe again, based on materials that they claim to have seen that President Trump directed Michael Cohen to lie to congress. That he also the president , that is. Supported a plan for coming to visit russia during the president ial campaign in order to further develop the real estate deal in russia. Again, quoting sources that claim they say they have seen this material. They say the material that they have seen implicates the president , and they also say he told cohen to make it happen. The president , as you also know, has reportedly repeatedly denig going to break the law. They also note, listen, no deal was ever made. None. Period. As you can imagine, theres a healthy dose of cynicism about the report here at the house. Im very dismayed that the sourcing this particular article are two Law Enforcement officials who are connected to the investigation. That should send a chill down everybodys spine. People should not be leaking information from investigations. Meanwhile, there are democrats weighing in on this. He mentioned adam shifts earlier here is joaquin castro. He says if the buzzfeed story is true, President Trump must resign or be impeached. That begs this question. If this video or audio proof of the president telling to lie, thats one thing. If, however, the evidence cited is merely with the mueller team has collected again, some investigators say they have seen it if its what he has collected in whole or in part, statements by cohen. Thats part of it. Thats what we call circular reporting here in washington. Sometimes people simply say, this is what he said, and other people run with their reporting. Again, thats latest we have. No one that i know of, at least here at the network, has been able to corroborate or confirm the reporting from buzzfeed. Although its getting a lot of buzz and i imagine thats part of it. Let me share this at this hour, i received the snow. Let me grab this from my phone. My producer, matt, tells me that the president will meet with kim young chill was the vice chairman of the Workers Party of korea. That of course is the north koreans come here at the white house today. In the oval office. We are told that meaning could be ongoing as we speak. Sarah sander singhs statement that they will discuss relations between the two countries and continued progress on north koreas final filletverified denuclearization prayed that, from sarah sanders. Another active day here the white house. My friend, back to you. Melissa no doubt. Kevin corke, thank you so much. Veteran journalist, harris faulkner. [laughter] i want to start with you. When i heard this story, and i see the smoking gun. Thats what they were calling this report. I say, wow, he must have texted sent emails instructing him to live. What exactly did the email say . I start searching through harris let me guess, you can find that evidence . Melissa they are not there. We heard one reporter said they didnt see the evidence, they just heard about it. With the danger in importing stories like that . Or would you go with that . Speak with her to take Something Back from you once you put it out there. If it doesnt have the evidentiary basis that you need, its problematic to then clarify. Its one thing to Say Something that you said was wrong, but when he put information out and say that it is whole and then have to take that back, its almost impossible to do. Buzzfeed has had its own problems. I do realize that when they outed the name of someone of the trump case, with the antitrump dossier, they won a court battle but they lost, perhaps, the Public Relations battle of being believed all the time as a News Organization that would lean heavily on evidence. So its problematic when he put stuff out there. I would also say, with buzzfeed remember, the photo that antitrump dossier. I see you nodding. Before it was like a test ground. Then they released it. Im curious to know what youre thinking. Lisa , they are part of the unverified dossier which has taken massive credibility hits as of late. They have demonstrate to their standards. We see outlets like abc and cnn also taking it on the chin for these allegedly bombshell reports that turn out to not be true. I think everything with this trump hero, you wait to see how this is going to end up. Harris it should be an error. Lisa thats how it is. I watch the bachelor, and if you like this is like chris harris in every season. This is the most dramatic season of her eczema and the reporters keep saying, this is the end of the road for the trump administration. And the stories fizzle i would say, cautionary tale. Wait to see what other evidence comes forward. Piece of the reports that have ended up to be nothing. Melissa if its true, its enormous. Jessica exactly, i think we can all agree, big deal if true. Well have to wait. We have seen democrats for the first time coming out publicly and saying that bob mueller should give us what we need in order to be able to question people and bring this to the committee level. If you want is in a give you more comfortable about all this impeachment liquid and everything . The push for facts . Jessica i think this has been push refax all along. Some people on wild goose chase chases. Harris before its done jessica if it was obstruction of justice, which this would become that would be cause for impeachment. This is point about the dossier, as of late, the death he has gotten more credibility now that we know about the trump tower deal. Melissa lets try and let matt an on this before you go back to it. Matt first of all, President Trump does not email or text. He tweets. He uses his phone. There will be no physical evidence for any of this. Number two, Michael Cohen was his lawyer. What Michael Cohen would be trying to get us to understand is that donald trump was Michael Cohen lawyer. It was actually just the opposite. Thats absurd. He is a convicted liar. He has perjured himself. He has already admitted to that. He says sometimes he doesnt tell officials the truth, but how we are to all take him at his word that he is now a truth teller question marks sorry. Jessica but hes not one of the sources for this. Matt let me talk about this. Melissa thats the point. But it was more than harris the fbi, the doj. That you wouldnt take him out as were, they would cooperate hopefully from two or three incidents of evidence. Matt heres the everything, they are saying that trump told him to lie. So with the other piece here is that we are assuming any direction or conversation that the two of them had was maybe there is a disagreement over what the set facts were. Which is what a lot of this comes down to any of these investigations. Leave it to the left or to immediately painted as a lie. We are going to have to look at all of this. Melissa thats when i First Response of the story was exactly where you are. I need to see exactly what the text says come up with the message says. Because i want to judge myself with the conversation was about. Thats when you discover in the story wait, we dont have the exact words. Harris when you have potential to something, jessica and i dont know because i havent heard all of the surreptitious recordings that Michael Cohen was making of the president in their conversations. I mentioned yesterday in the colloquial that they might be receipts. There might be some evidence that we dont know about that could even be on that. I dont know. Jessica theres also another story that cannot yesterday about 50,000 actually, 13,000 in a boxing glove being exchanged to rig online polls. You saw them dodge the question asked illicitly about whether the president directed by google in july by saying i will not address that. Or Kellyanne Conway saying, the president addressed it himself. Matt none of it is collusion, none of it is illegal, this is absurd. Lisa but where is information coming from . Because the buzzfeed article references the special counsels office, and it references federal Law Enforcement officials. Weve already seen the affair come under fire for leaking. Again, it appears matt 12 people have been fired. Lisa wears information come from . Melissa no one else is able to corroborate it. Jessica so we wait to find out what the sources are. But free to sit there and say, no collusion, no collusion, that has backfired. Matt you think thats breaking the law . Oh, my gosh. Jessica the drudge report matt was impeach the president over this. Jessica youre not actually taking what im saying to heart and respond to it for you are out with euphemisms. Like guiliani, no collusion lisa that doesnt mean he disagrees with you. He says melissa what you want him to respond to . Jessica and want you to respond to the fact that when they do have a number of indictments they do, cooperating witnesses, rick gates, paul manafort, Michael Cohen weve indicted 12 russian trolls is that they were involved in this. How can you sit there and say unilaterally, no collusion questionnaire matt let me answer. Because none of those people were convicted on anything having to do with inappropriate or illegal behavior. Jessica really . Donald trump directing Donald Mcmichael going to pay off women . So its not affecting the election . Thats specifically what he does. Matt thats not illegal. Jessica it is customer get the Campaign Finance violation. Matt it isnt, nobody has been doubted of it. Jessica whenever the same words as you, im taking them to some of her liberal plan or something. Matt we were trying to say is because the special counsel has made progress in going after people in the trump orbit who did things that might have been illegal we will see, some of them have pled. Let me just finish. Because there is all of that activity, that somehow proves that they must be right about the underlying charge of collusion with putins government. I say thats quite a stretch and its inappropriate to say. Jessica saying that as a stretch and saying no collusion are different. Well have the story that don jr. Made calls to block number before he took that trump tower meeting. Adam schiff harris dont ask me are doing that later in the show. Im not cutting you off. Dont go away, and he went [laughter] tomorrows womens march in washington, the event cochair facing controversy over her praise of nation of islam leader, louis farrakhan, despite his antisemitic remarks. It is also putting democrats in a tough spot ahead of the 2020 election, and some are asking whether there is a space for conservative women at the event. We will debate it. Billions of mouths.

Harris growing controversy in the runup to tomorrows womens march, an event that has been seen as a rebuke of President Trump. Now some of the march organizers have responded to allegations of racism and antisemitism. March cochair, Tamika Mallory, faced scrutiny over her praise of the leader, louis farrakhan. Including this post of her with farrakhan wishing him a happy birthday, which he has not deleted. The organization found or even on current leadership to resign. The dnc has dropped its sponsorship. The much controversy is posing a question for democrats. Whether they can keep a big tent together ahead of the 2020 election. Meanwhile, some conservative women being left out of the march altogether as an oped puts it this way. There is a simmering disdain for conservative female voters who prioritize lower taxes, government, National Security, and conservative judges in 2016. Even more, they have betrayed the ultimate tremendous goal electing a woman to the highest office. I want to go to the man on the couch. Oh, my goodness lisa welcome he does have a lot of daughters. [laughter] s be when i was going to say that its the next generation that will watch a retreat this one. Your thoughts . Matt its ironic with two marches, have to say. My daughters go to the prolife march. Every woman should want to be involved in a march that affirms women. But when the march is more about a certain brand of politics and ideology, and that ideology seems so splintered with these very fair charges of antisemitism and other things being leveled at it, when people get deep into whats going on with this march they realize women are as diverse as any group of human beings. They celebrate that part of it. Women coming to give it to a firm women why does it have to be leftwing women coming together . I dont get that. Harris jessica, i will tag onto matts question for you. Why does it have to be only women who agree with one another in order to support those women . Jessica it doesnt have to be. Theres a distinction to be made within the womens march, and im suffering this from the antisemitism issue which i would like to address, as well. When the first womens march happen, there was a rejection of prolife groups being part of the sponsorship committee. It wasnt that conservative women couldnt come in march, its that they didnt think of prolife platform spoke to the goals and the missions of the womens march, which are first and foremost equality and opportunity of choice for all. That equality, its economic, health care, being able to control your own body, environmental equality, racial justice, social justice, all of it. Thats why conservative women are excluded from the sponsorship committee, not from marching. To the antisemitic point, i marched very proudly at the first womens march in new york. I could make it to d. C. I would not go this time, now that all this has come to light. Harris let me add to that. Debbie wasserman scholes melissa before you go, i want to say that we accidentally showed the wrong march there. Its actually we showed the live march going on right now, which is the march for life as opposed womens march which going on tomorrow. Im sorry to interrupt, i didnt want to let any more time go by before he went im glad you did that. Please. What i was going to say is that Debbie Wasserman schultz, former dnc leadership, something akin to what you just said an oped today for usa today. She says, well, i still firmly believe in values and mission. I cant associate with the National Womens leaders and principles which refuse to completely repudiate antisemitism and all forms of bigotry. I cannot walk shoulder to shoulder with leaders who lock arms with outspoken paddlers of hate. Jessica the womens march was conceived to protect marginalized communitys. Anybody who would deny that are marginalized community, are living on another planet. Matt good for you, jessica. Harris lets hit the conservative women big left out again. It might just be them, it could be someone that any least organizers would disagree with. Lisa jessica laid out largely progressive viewpoints and platform, and thats with the womens march stands for. As a progressive platform and how it has been tinged with antisemitism. Now it has become a toxic brand, which is why youve seen these sponsors like the dnc pull out. They dont want to be affiliated with it. You shouldnt really be that hard when you see somebody like Tamika Mallory to say that somebody who says that jews are termites or akin to satan it should be easy to commend that dont like them i condemn that. Its become toxic. There are competing marches tomorrow with other conservative groups. Different groups. As you mentioned, other groups like similar to the womens march in terms of progressive viewpoints. Jessica like in new orleans, they will be a march. Many cities have counter marches. Six i wonder if james comey will be marching this year. He marched last year. Thats what i want to know. Harris House Democrats are looking to ramp up investigations of the president and his family.

Jessica House Intelligence Committee chairman adam schiff saying he plans to go after donald trump jr. s phone records related to the 2016 trump tower meeting, effectively reopening the investigation. Both house and Senate Committees previously close the investigations into that meeting, finding no wrongdoing. Chairman schiff says he wants more answers, saying i cant imagine a more obvious then getting those phone records. But we are denied the ability to do that and in the republicand infestation. It was about going through the motions of a political report could be issued and they could absolve the president. We still need to get answers, and one of the places we will begin is by getting those phone records. Meanwhile, to Key Senate Democrats demanding access to the interpreters present for all of the meetings with russias flight repeated. Two really big issues there. How do you feel about the subpoenas for the translators records from the meeting . Matt i feel like if there was something there, mark warner she was no wallflower would have been aggressive on the senate side saying, i think theres more here. I think he and richard burr have tried to look at all these questions. I have talked to people involved directly without oversight on the senate side. The actually do think that russia is a huge problem on social media, and other platforms in this country. They actually dont see wrongdoing in these other areas. I think if adam schiff looks like i think its the same thing republicans have to face when we are to aggressive investigations. It just looks like you have a political ax to grind, it will just reduce the potency of the charges they are trying to make. Jessica lisa, what you make about that . Elections have consequences. New chairman and chairwoman in town. You think it will end up being a waste of time, reduce or do you cease a merit . Lisa they cant control the white house or the senate come you cant legislate. What will they be doing over the next few years is investigating. As weve already seen. Republican sitter to president obama so i dont blame democrats for doing it. This is how theyre going to use the time, particularly in committees like the oversight committee, intelligence committee. They will try to go after President Trump and will see a lot of leaks and information out there to try and damage the president , electorally heading into 2020. Buckle up, this is what the next two years is going to be about. Jessica there will be investigations. I also believe there be legislation paid but these phone records, it does seem like a big deal. Wright, melissa . To know if don jr. Was calling his dad . Melissa i would be interested in knowing that. I will say also that every time i hear the stories it reminds me that i feel like we have found out that the russians and im sure others are constantly fishing and dangling people out there to try and get anyone involved on the american side. Probably anywhere else, that they are active. And just how real all of this is and how president the danger is in our society. Im sure its on every side with politics, but its just something to get to the bottom of. And look out for going forward. Im not sure Many Americans before this realized how active russia was trying to infiltrate our politics and be here on american soil working on it. You know they should have been. [laughs] they have always wanted to disrupt things here. If you are seeing this fight thats going on right now, they have to be licking their fingers, like, this is fantastic. I want to go back to what youre saying and healed some of my time to you. Because i think its important that we learn from the facts of each administration, and each group that is in politics and empowered. What is it that should be the take away from some of the overreach that we saw, even with the republicans . Because you were going down that road. Its a good lesson for everybody. Matt i think the Republican Party in the house, the republicans in the house, decided to impeach bill clinton. They felt like this question of perjury was serious enough that they had to go forward. But what we have to or member with the term, impeachment, its not an indictment. Its not a legal term. Its a political term in the constitution, a perfectly good term, but its political. If you want to go down that road, understand their suppose go upside and political downside. I think most of the country thought that bill clinton acted inappropriately with a white house intern, but they didnt want him to not be the president anymore. They felt like they had to prevent decision in the election. I think democrats are to be awfully careful about putting their partisan will over what happened with the electoral college. Hes up for reelection again. If he loses, thats the people that decide that. So be careful with indictment. Its political in the end. Excuse me impeachment is political in the end. Melissa good point. Jessica may be if you get an indictment we will get an impeachment. Matt you cant indict a president [laughter] jessica 2020, here we come President Trump meeting with a korean envoy right now about denuclearization, amid growing situation about a second sum between President Trump and kim jong un.

Speed tomorrow numbered in just a moment, but first lets check up with her since he was coming up on outnumbered overtime. Harris . Harris melissa, thank you very much. The starting back and forth between President Trump and Speaker Nancy Pelosi as he grounds her war zone trip after she asks him to deliver the state of the union. Should he pick a fight with someone who could make things difficult for him . I will talk with the always outspoken republican senator, john kennedy of louisiana. The president also going after buzzfeed report with sensational claims involving his former lawyer, Michael Cohen, saying that cohen is just lying to reduce his sentence. I will ask you former doj prosecutor what to make of all of this. A top story since this continues to develop. See you then. Melissa we look forward to. The white house says President Trump is meeting with enough korean envoy in the oval office for talks over north koreas denuclearization. Earlier, secretary of state mike pompeo meeting with iridium envoy. All this, amid the possibility of a second sum between President Trump and kim jong un. This, after the president named the threat from north korea yesterday and announcing his new muscle defense strategy. After Vice President mike pence this week told diplomats that the resume is nigh at following through with its pledges. While the president is promising dialogue with chairman kim, we still await concrete steps by north korea to dismantle the nuclear weapons. Melissa so, thats fair. The talks are good, thats progress. We have yet to see concrete steps. Matt but this was a huge change in strategy for the United States to actually engage the regime. Its like almost everything with President Trump, its highrisk, highpotential reward. We are not seeing that reward yet. Hes got the right people on the job, bolton, pompeo, steve beacon is the special envoy. Im hopeful that the thing that will change the kims is not the fact that they will do with the American People want or that it its response will. They need money. They are starving, and they themselves dont have the greenbacks and the gold that they have always had to get them through the rough times. Thats whats bringing him to the table. President trump understands that parade let me tell you, hes going to leverage their need for american support to try and get rid of weapons. Melissa but as soon as the president tries to trade up on that idea of lightening up in order to get to them to do something, thats immediately wn folks are critical of the fact that you need regime change. Have you talked about human rights . How do you balance those things . Jessica i think that you focus as much as you can on china. Thats really the key, here. They need american support but they need Chinese Support more than they need our support. What we can leverage with the chinese, i think, thats actually going to end up defining what do we may be able to strike with the denuclearization flame to my framework. The mission is being very clear about that they havent taken the steps they said they were going to. If you remember, just months ago we were having discussions about President Trump for the nobel peace prize. That was a little hasty, and certainly john bolton we know is as hawkish as we come, was cautioning against that. I think china is important here. I think the conversations are fruitful and important, but if the actions account at the end of the day. Lisa i am assured by the fact that i dont think present trip desires to strike a deal at any cost. I think he would be walk away if he feels like north korea is not willing to give, or hes not getting what he wants. That gives me assurance. I also appreciate the people that he has surrounded himself with, like mike pompeo. I think is perfectly capable. My concerns are the fact does north korea ever wanted to nuclearize . I think thats a question. Alternatively, for economic pressure reporting on, its really where its at in china. In the sense that thats their trading partner. I think its more difficult to try and put that increase leverage on them, and we are o reliant on trying not to do so. Melissa we are putting tons of pressure on china. Do not sing the link between those things . Thats part of the reason we are in the trade war, not just about our own interest on trade. Its also about putting pressure on north korea. As china is struggling, thats hard on north korea, all salsa. Lisa are you satisfied with the pressure that china is putting on north korea . Melissa no, of course not. But it only increase by the virtue of them going into recession. Theres a break of the enemy of morse of more outnumbered on the other side. We will be right back morning. Morning. What do we got .
