News. what does that mean to you? >> what it means is we can expect the president to be up early tomorrow morning on twitter, giving us realtime peak to whats on his mind, probably a reflection of what hes seeing on cable news tomorrow morning. thats what happens when the president spend time over the weekend not in mar-a-largo holed up at the white house. i will tell you based on my conversations with diehard trump supporters that the developments tonight will only embolden them as they take ai...

Democrats for his wife. his wife was running for office. what does -- how does that play into all of this? >> well, i think the way that plays into all of this this absolutely has nuthing to do with the matter at hand. seized upon the fact in 2015 she lost the race well before andrew mccabe became deputy director of the fbi and the money didnt come from clinton t came from the governor of virginia who gave to a lot of candidates. this sets the scene. donald trump attacked mccabe almost always un...

Warrant that could give the president a pretext if he so choses to fire rosenstein. >> and bill kristol, back to you for a moment. if tonights story was reporting, say, the dismissal of rosenstein, the dismissal of mueller, question we all get asked a lot that you may have some wisdom on, do you trust that there is a common core in both houses of congress of commonsense republicans and democrats who would do something, switch mueller the next day to a special prosecutor statute, continue the wor...
