Offered his sympathies and said at some point, something about think, contemplation of resignation, though he wouldnt. phil, you agree with the idea that kelly and the chief of staff role is significant, especially as the investigation he saw. >> talk about a test. look at the first couple of steps hes taken. hes removed the communications director and hes also called ef debitly the attorney general saying dont worry, your jobs safe. whats the message? very simple. we have an agenda, what the wh...

We didnt know about this person. we didnt know about such meeting. were finding out more and more details, not because theyre being forthcoming but because were hearing from other people either leaking to the media or what have you. so that makes a much more complicated situation for the president. >> phil mud told us earlier what we know is only a tiny little piece of what the prosecutors, special counsel and the attorneys know. just ahead, a new progress of the u.s.-led war against isis with...

Gathering, which we can see at the end of a dinner here, but still another sense for these two presidents adversaries and linked in this unusual way here having more time than we initially thought. >> a lot more time and something people would have a lot of interest in the fact of knowing it actually happened. lets go to phil mud now, april ryan and richard painter. phil, the breaking news here, president trump having a second undisclosed conversation with vladimir putin. maybe it was about all ...

We have what we believe to be incriminating evidence against hillary clinton. it comes as a result of russias effort to help aid mr. trump in the election and don junior says, quote, love it, hope that its true. if so, we can use it later in the summer. i dont know that its more complicated than that. you can throw out all sorts of things, shiny objects as spin but thats not my word. thats not phil mud. thats not richard painter. thats donald trump jr.s e-mails that he released. so i cant get be...

Government official. so its all there and, again, donald trump jr. takes this meeting because he views goldstone and the russian family, therefore, as credible sources looking out for donald trumps best interests. its important to extricate those two things from one another. >> so on this point, about who is in this room, right, and this is what were looking at now, the big mystery right now, ivan points out there was another person in that meeting and we now is it was a representative of the ag...

>> now today in the rose garden the president is expected to attend a news conference with the president of romania, an opportunity to get at least a couple questions to him to try to gauge his reaction in person to the comey testimony. this will be the first news conference the president has done in about three weeks. >> all right, joe. that will be an anticipated event today. lets bring in the panel, chris cillizza, phil mud and jeffrey tubin. this is great. weve got the intel, the politics an...

How do you look with someone with that kind of history and say i believe him. >> especially when another one of his most quotable moments needs proper context, when clapper said i have seen no proof of collusion. now, when we had him on the show, i tested him on that, and he said, well, thats because i wasnt overseeing the case. i dont know what the book is on the case. i dont know the evidence. so how could i know what they have on collusion. still, when hes out there saying i dont know about a...

Guess what? she won the popular vote by two to three points. so take what you will from it. >> right. but they also predicted we would have a different president. we get that criticism. >> and thats fair, chris. i always say, look, i did not think that -- nothing that i had read, studied, reported on suggested donald trump would win that election. he won. he was right. i was wrong. no question. but his argument that all polling therefore should be, you know, thrown in the garbage if it doesnt se...
