succeeded where others failed. we have a president who really wants to fight for the american people and he wants to make sure that the rule of law is followed. and so when you have a case like this where in 2004 this individual is told that he is no longer a u.s. citizen and must be deported and consecutive administrations ignores that it tears down the rule of law. it takes somebody like the president to say this is a decision. he is no longer a united states citizen. we want him out. sandra: brian yenis joins us in new york. what more do we know about how this former nazi guard managed to get into the united states? look, this nazi guard has been living here since 1949 as a war refugee. he lied to u.s. immigration officials telling them he spent world war ii working on his father s farm in his hometown of what was poland, present day ukraine and said he worked in a

presidency took a giant step toward impeachment. it happened in a courtroom in manhattan when these words were spoken. at the direction of, meaning at the direction of the president of the united states. and when a defendant is pleading guilty in court, it is very difficult for the defendant to say something more important than the word guilty. that s usually the most important word a defendant speaks during a guilty plea session. but today in federal court in manhattan michael cohen said guilty, your honor eight times and he s also said at the direction of twice. and both times he meant at the direction of the president of the united states. and so today donald trump made history by becoming the first president of the united states to be accused under oath in federal court of ordering someone to commit a federal crime to win a presidential election. at the direction of.

and people are exhausted. trump did respond to michael cohen s plea today. this morning he wrote if anyone is looking for a good lawyer, i would strongly suggest that you don t retain the services of michael cohen! and michael cohen plead guilty to two counts of campaign finance violations that are not a crime. president obama had a big campaign finance violation and it was easily settled. trump also spoke to fox news about his relationship with michael cohen. he was a lawyer for me for one of many, you know, there was a lawyer and the fixer. i don t know if he was a fixer. i don t know where that term came from, but he s didn t do big deals. did small deals. not somebody that was with me that much. you know, they make it sound like i didn t live without him. i understood michael cohen very well. turned out he wasn t a very good lawyer, frankly. he was somebody that was probably with me for about ten take this all together this being the president of the united states after
A look at breaking news, politics and reports from around the world. yeah. i think that s a good point. on paul manafort, the former trump campaign chairman convicted yesterday on eight felony counts, bank fraud, tax fraud, stealing literally millions of dollars from american taxpayers, not reporting income on tens of millions of dollars, is there a chance he ll still cooperate with the special counsel paul manafort? he has another trial coming up next month. right. look. if you re paul manafort, i mean, you re looking at possibly some serious jail time. there is an incentive. but i think what you are seeing is the president telegraphing directly to paul manafort, if you stay put, if you do not as he said, if you refuse to break, if you see that tweet that he he contrasts paul manafort with michael cohen it s very clear that he s telegraphing to paul manafort that if he doesn t break with him that perhaps there s a pardon in the offing and you can see, also, by the way, paul

thoug a sense the timing of the conversation was while the manafort trial was under way? i m going to credit rudy giuliani in his last corrected statement in which he says to me that he believes it was quite a bit longer before the trial. now, manafort was facing a lot of charges in a pretty damning case of tax evasion and bank fraud. it was fairly, you know, high odds that he was going to be convicted based on those case based on those charges and the evidence that the government had. but, again, i m just going to let giuliani say what he wants to say, which is that now he remembers it really probably was in june rather than in august. so further along than recently. did you get a sense at all, carol, from your conversation with rudy giuliani as to why today did he mention this? he s obviously given a lot of interviews in the past. was it your reading of his intent that maybe
