than kenneth starr who was then working as independent come. he, today, was asked about this issue, talk about the parallels between then-fbi director comey and hillary clinton and her e-mails. here's what ken starr said about doubling back on that issue. >> there really needs to be a full airing of all this. i'm not saying criminal charges need to be brought, i'm not saying lock her up. i'm saying let's get to the bottom of all this because i don't think we did. shannon: you know, professor, he talked about the fact that there were a lot of people involved on that end with hillary clinton and then with the investigation into president trump who thought she was going to be the president, and many of them probably never thought their texts would be exposed, they would have to answer questions. any chance you think there's a revisiting of the charges or the allegations against her? >> absolutely not, no. and we should stop weaponizing the criminal justice system. if you don't like hillary clinton, you voted against her. she lost the election. i think the idea of reopening a case now would just politicize our criminal justice system even
favori favorite, vice, blackkklansman, vice. >> i think spike lee deserves a lot of attention. it's worth rewatching, revisiting. >> it is so good. >> amazing. terrifying. >> this is his first ever nomination as a director which blows your mind. think about the films he's done. this is the first time he's been nominated in the directing category. he's been nominated for writing, for documentary. he's never been nominated as a director until now. >> do you think it will be enough to put him over the top or because the academy likes to vote for the arty films. we have seen it before. >> they love alfonso cuaron. he'll keep the momentum going into the oscars. i agree with you.
nobody has come forward and said if you don't vote for her vote for me. jillian: they have a few days to get the list in order and get a letter out. pete: this era of hashtag me too is a time to oust, historic revisiting of the female speaker? is that the time for democrats to have that type of optic? to go to seth molson or tim ryan? brian: on the republican side, lynn cheney, house republican conference chair. number 3 republican spot in the house and she will be joining us later today. speaking of later today, today is deadline day in florida. counties have a number of hours to finish recounts, the heated battle over the u.s. senate seat stirring even more controversy. pete: let's call it election season. and counties making progress. issues are piling up for others. ainsley: griff jenkins is in
want to appear to have a tainted process. but now this person will reclaim the lead investigative role on all active investigations. >> it is so important for democrats and republicans to come together and put together some type of legislation to protect this as special counsel. otherwise -- >> transparency will protect the special counsel. >> otherwise we are going to go down the dangerous road of a constitutional crisis, perhaps. >> make everything transparent. >> harris: i thought it had been reported -- i don't have to think it, i know it's true, that mueller was close to giving us something. >> i think this lasts through the end of the year, i think you get lindsey graham or somebody like that in the attorney general spot and i think there is a revisiting of all this stuff. i think the mueller probe is close to being finished.
out when the president was there. it's grown dramatically to 3,000 people. he seems willing to accept that and accept any responsibility for what many people think was an inadequate response to that hurricane. >> ken, to that point, we often look to our presidents in times of crisis like these to be the consoler in chief but also the person who is in charge and leading through a crisis. what is the president's focus on hurricane maria on his frustration with the death toll. what does it say about his ability to lead the country through a crisis like this? >> his response both at the time and we can't forget his visit there where he was throwing the paper towels out and projecting a more cheery, congratulatory mood about the government's response and not expressing empathy and the revisiting of this episode on twitter shows,
approve. me. this is about a "town and country" event. "town and country" to "huffington post's" request, did not immediately respond. but apparently president clinton attended. he introduced emma gonzales, an advocate for gun control. but monica lewinsky was claiming she was disinvited, kasie, because bill clinton was coming. is she right? i think she's right if it happened. >> does it happen in this day and age? clearly it happens in this day and age. yeah, especially if you're talking about social change, i mean -- you know we've -- it's been a painful revisiting of you know, we've talked a lot on this show about you know what happened to her in the wake of everything that played on the white house, the way she was kind of villainized and she was the one who was shoved aside in favor of him. so yeah. i mean next time, maybe just double-check your guest list. >> perhaps those two names
agenda item for his administration. a revisiting of health care reform. earlier this week the president protecting republicans and democrats will eventually, he said, come together on the issu issue. well, you might have to do it without a key committee chairman. an op-ed on foxnews.com, tennessee congresswoman diane black saying she will step down as the house budget committee, because she is running for governor in 2018 in her home state. an exclusive interview, so good to see you. congratulations are in order. >> thank you, it is good to be with you this evening. >> trish: walk me through what is next. i know that you are leaving, and we are going to talk about your plans in a moment, but what do you anticipate being the front and center policy item in d.c. in '18? >> we looked back on this last
sources." listen to this quote from "people" magazine. i feel this issue has been hold all year but not forgotten. it's been simmering with on the stove with the lid on, like a pressure cooker buchlt now the heat's on and it's going to boil. and the lid is going to blast off. that's natasha stoynov, writer for "people," for the lack of attention to this, those women who accused president trump for sexual misconduct during the campaign last year. they feel there's never been justice for their stories. we're seeing a revisiting of these stories against president trump and now former president bill clinton. i'm joined again by elaina plott and marc fisher.
try to revisit elements of this deal to revise it until some of the holds and what the president i think noted was a bad deal for the united states and for its allies. >> jon: it may have been a bad deal but it's in place and it's my understanding that his national security advisor h.r. mcmaster is saying you have to stick with what's been foisted upon us. >> i think there is still a debate and if you listen to what the president said during his united nations speech, he hinted there is going to be a revisiting of this in some way. that's not to say he's going to tear up the deal but i think there are some options short of that in the president is looking into that now ahead of the next recertification period. >> jon: is it realistic to pull out of that deal or amended significantly? >> this is something they've been looking out for quite some time, i know there is a lot of trepidation among the international community of walking away, giving iran an
republicans seem paralyzed by their division and slim majority. others fear trouble ahead in primaries as conservatives with a legislative track record or political experience now challenges. we saw that backfire in 2010 with people like sharon angle and christine o'donnell and delaware who critics say were damaged by rookie. democrats may face their own liabilities as the midterms get closer. >> i think we'll start seeing a number of democratic primaries. we have this litmus test, whether or not you're for socialized medicine, we have more democratic candidates emerging across the country and governors races. it all adds to the stakes of tax reform, defense spending, the budget and a possible revisiting of repeal and replacement of obamacare as a country waits to see whether the g.o.p. congress can get things done.
