Taking place, if mere fact you have a former lawyer testifying in this setting and these kind of details is going to be remarkable. >> i have to say quickly, the michael cohen i dealt with in 2011, 2010, 2012, when donald trump was flirting with the presidency, i cant imagine him ever saying what he said here. i cant look back and think this would ever happen? true. i have known michael cohen going back to when he worked for president trump before he ran for office in new york city at one point....

Mexico. our role in the hemisphere is injured when the president wants to lead on venezuela. and u.s. credibility around the world is at stake. would you buy a used car from a carjacker? >> thats a good point. you were the ambassador to el salvador at one point. as we look at both the problems in latin america and central america that are causing people to want to come to the united states, should we think of a more holistic approach to do something to create greater economic stability in these ...

Sentence. it would certainly look better to the judge if michael cohens lawyers could say he testified truthfully and forth coming in front of congress as well as helping prosecutors. he is not testifying with immunity and may reserve area where is he doesnt want to talk. i dont know how likely that is at this point. there are some incentives for him to look like he is really trying to help. frankly at this point there is no love lost between michael cohen and donald trump. he may just be willin...

District of california. good to see you. to garretts last point, michael cohen is a liar. that is now in evidence. that is something he admitted to the point that is often made to me by people like you, former u.s. attorneys, former prosecutors, many very strong cases are built on liars. thats who populates the criminal world. >> thats right. there is a saying that a lot of prosecutors argue to juries, which is plots hatched in hell dont have angels as witnesses. those are the people who know wh...

Were the elements of that? north korea wants to see the u.s. pull back the weapons arsenal that protect south korea and japan. the united states is not going to do that at this point and the united states wants to see that north korea is ending its program and not only not just firing off missles, which the president refers to frequently, but ending its program. there is no sign that its happening or in the offing. not sure that kim jong un is even prepared to do that despite the paper he signed...

Hide behind the current complexities to shield the true cost of drugs and shouldnt turn a blind eye to industry practices that thwart laws and regulations designed to promote competition and generic drug entries into the marketplace. >> drug prices are astronomically high because thats where pharmaceutical companies and their investors want them. the brakes have come off pharmaceutical pricing and american families are hurdling along in the passenger seat, terrified about what comes next. >> let...

And go, that could become me? >> i dont know, you know, i dont know the answer to that. i know that it is way too late for him to flip and i know that nobody would probably want him to flip anyway, because the judge today said he was not credible. so why would you do that? i think that, you know, stone and manafort used to be business partners at one time. but i think, i think stone is kind of looking out for number one, which is himself. and i think he fully expects that perhaps the president w...

>> and thats a really interesting point. as we all heard andrew mccabe say that, it kind of dawns on you that if that was a case, if the president was and possible is still an asset of russia, isnt that the definition of a national emergency? and im trying to not be so cute on this. isnt that something of a problem that this wasnt brought forward in the past two years if the fbi and the justice department thought that the president could be a russian asset? >> i think it absolutely is a moment o...

Its fair to ask why. it is russias foreign policy objective to break up nato and rattle the european union. why would a president of the united states make those claims? id want answer from the president and his administration about where they truly stand on russia. why does the president have these kind feelings toward putin? why does he seem to have this moral equivalency? he looks at angela merkel and vladimir putin on the same moral plane or justin trudeau and kim jong-un. this is what is so...
