Focus. then -- >> i dont know matt whitaker. >> renewed concern about the acting attorney general has republicans block a bill to protect mueller. and todays stunning rebuke of the presidents support for saudi arabia in the wake of the khashoggi murder. >> we have a president who is part of the coverup. >> when "all in" starts right now. good evening from new york. im chris hayes. there is right now, it appears, an ongoing conspiracy to undermine robert muellers investigation. and it is be...

Back here, the rockefeller center tree is up and lit. a 75-footer from the new york suburbs. it certainly changes the view from here at this time every year, at least for a while. and that is our broadcast tonight. thank you so much for being here with us. and good night from nbc news headquarters here in new york. ♪ this morning, could a pardon for paul manafort be on the table? president trump isnt ruling it out. this as we learn new details about why the former trump campaign chairmans pl...

Country. yesterday what these 14 senators did was the beginning, i think, of a pretty powerful shift against checking donald trump and it should be encouraged. and anyone who cares about americas moral standing in the world should be encouraged by this rebuke. >> let me ask you about gina haskill not being there. we had senators inside the meeting saying explicitly afterward we were told during this briefing by pompeo that it was the direction of the white house that prevented haspel from being ...

Accusation. but it was a pretty specific rebuke of the fed chair. not normally something that you see. >> and it was pretty stunning. and in your article, you describe the interview as sometimes discordant. it was an interesting word. what exactly happened in that room? >> well, the president often goes on tangents or asides. a conversation about the killing of jamal khashoggi, the "washington post" colleague, can weed into an answer about the post blaming him for traffic jams. thats what he sai...

Were actually up here today to try to stop that is that this will be a tremendous rebuke of the administration. usually john, you know this as well as anybody, when these briefings occur they are usually very effective. they do a job of knocking back. it seems coming out of this several senators have already said they voted against this the first time around. they are changing their votes. the top republican said he is willing to vote to get onto the resolution but at least get on it and have th...

Accountable for russias nefarious, this latest incident of russias latest aggression against ukraine. we know from the obama administrations experience when you talk to russia and dont have any counter measures, it only encourages russias further aggression. we need to do other things as well. it starts with that public overt rebuke of putin. i think the president could deliver that strongly. steve: yeah. you say nothing threatens putins regime more than ukraine. a democratic neighbor with a bri...

In the same room even very often and their concerns are different but overlapping here and also to have any real force have to get through on the house side, as well. if you see the senate muscle something like this through as a rebuke to the 3president, it might give it more momentum in the other chamber and talking to senators as they left this room today, this briefing, not a single one said they were more inclined to back the administration than they had been when they went in. we heard many...

Confusing to americans and i suppose on the international stage as well. which response is real? >> well, i would like to think that nikki haleys response is real. thats absolutely the right response. a powerful condemnation of this act of aggression on this water way. certainly a strong rebuke to russian partnership with our nato allies. i think president trump finds any fact that is uncomfortable one in which he wants to ignore. with he see this with khashoggi, he said maybe it happened, maybe...

Daniel. >> there is no question that vladimir putin is absolutely ratcheting up military aggression against ukraine and the obama administration didnt take any steps to support ukraine. the trump administration has provided the javelin anti-tank weapons which i think was an important step but now we need at the upcoming g20 summit for the president, i believe, to deliver a strong message of rebuke to putin and then i think we need to consider increased military and intelligence assistance to ukr...

Where is the server? let these terrible people go back to the clinton foundation and justice department. a lingering question, where is the mueller filing leading? some analysts say its leading closer to the presidents inner circle, perhaps to the president himself. others suggest it is leading to exactly what the president has said all along. that the mueller team is drilling a dry hole and that there is no russia collusion. thats where we stand today, sandra, back to you. >> sandra: doug mcelw...
