A look at breaking news, politics and reports from around the world.
manafort would send me a list of wire requests. gates admit that had he used information provided by manafort to create invoices for fake amounts of money but the money never went to the vendors, instead it went to the banks. the purpose of this, according to gates, so that the wire transfers would not be recorded on u.s. business records. nonetheless, prosecutors elicited testimony from mr. gates and from one of mr. manafort's accountants that tied manafort more closely to russia. the accountant testified that in 2006 mr. manafort received a $10 million loan from a russian oligarch close to president vladimir putin. she said she saw no evidence the loan was ever repaid. the cross-examination today getting very personal at times. gates forced to admit that more than a decade ago he had an
affair, that he financed this affair first class travel to london and an apartment in london but he insisted he did not use stolen money to finance the affair. the defense attorney pressing him to know about this secret life as the defense attorney described it, whether his wife knew about it. gates said he did and throughout wolf gates saying that now, he is doing his best to take responsibility for all these things, that in a sense in essence is his argument to the jury as to why he should be believed now as the accounts what he says are paul manafort's alleged crime. >> jim sciutto, thanks so much for that report. president trump meanwhile is hosting a group of ceos at his new jersey golf club later tonight while his lawyers weigh whether he should talk to the special counsel robert mueller. let's go to our chief white house correspondent jim acosta, he's in new jersey for us. "the washington post" now reporting that giuliani's lawyer is reluctant to let the president be questioned about obstruction of justice.
>> reporter: that's right, wolf. a lot of concerns insides the president's legal team as to what questions could be asked. the president is expected to draegs those ceos at that dinner at his golf club within the next hour or so. that event has just been opened up to the cameras so we may get to see a bit of what the president has to say. we can expect him to talk up the economy, of course. wolf, he's not been talking to reporters as he's been holed up in his golf course in new jersey. the president, though, is tweeting his support to some of his favorite candidates on the ballot today. an early test on whether he'll help or hurt the republicans in upcoming midterms. as president trump is taking shelter inside his new jersey golf course away from the president, an unmakeable president from the man overseeing the russian investigation, rod rosenstein, who told a group of law enforcement officials their job is to uphold the law regardless
of politics. >> it's our duty to enforce the laws and follow the facts wherever they may lead and we need to ensure that our decisions are never influenced by political considerations. >> reporter: the president's legal team says it's nearing a decision on whether president trump will sit down with robert mueller. senator lindsey graham who just played golf with the president advised him to ride out the probe. did trump ask that question? he must've mentioned that about 20 times. i want to win in november. if we stop the mueller probe tomorrow, you wouldn't be able to talk about anything else. >> i would basically say, mr. president, we're not going to let you anywhere near robert mueller. he knows a lot more about this this case, he's interviewed a lot more witnesses -- >> reporter: a conservative judge was hardly reading from white house talking points when he suggested donald trump jr. esmeeting with the russians in 2016 could amount to a criminal conspiracy. a meeting the president admits
was aimed at obtaining dirt on hillary clinton. >> there are federal statutes that prohibit receiving something of value from a foreign national, foreign entity or foreign government, so was the purpose of this meeting to receive something of value? that's something robert mueller will have to look at. >> laura ingraham tried to ask don jr. about the meeting the call was cut off. >> do you want any comments on that, donnie? they're hitting you on that for contradictions, they're calling it worse than contradictions. >> hello? >> what is your reaction to all that? we'll see if we can reconnect with donald trump jr. on this because we can't seem to hear him. >> he was back on the line to say his russian encounter didn't amount to much. >> 20 minutes meeting, it ended up being about essentially nothing that was relevant to any of these things and that's all it is and that's all they've got. >> reporter: if that's the case, other trump allies argue there is no need to worry.
>> what has them riled up is they feel cornered and it's not clear to me they're necessarily cornered as much as there's a fact finding expedition. >> reporter: the president has turned his attention to special elections across the country, from kansas where a fellow hard liner on immigration is running for governor to ohio where the gop candidate appears vulnerable in a district mr. trump himself won by 11 points. >> we must elect more republicans and we must elect troy balderson. we have to elect troy. so get your friends, get your neighbors, get your family and get out and vote for troy on tuesday. >> reporter: democrats smell an upset so former vice president joe biden has entered the fray with a last minute robo-call. >> electing danny to congress puts us one step closer to taking back the house and making sure we have leaders in washington who will fight for our values, ohio values.
>> reporter: now some disappointing results for the president on this election night could begin to change the calculus in washington that mr. trump's negatives are weighing down their chances of gaining control. that could be magnified further if the mueller probe moves closer to the white house. the president seems to be sounding out people as he talks to them over at his golf course about what he should do about the mueller investigation. it'll be interesting to see if he does indeed do more of that later on this evening when he meets with those ceos at his golf course, wolf? >> thank you. let's get some more on all of this. jerry nadler of new york is joining us. he's the top democrat, the ranking member of the house judiciary committee. thank you so much for joining us. >> thank you. >> do you believe robert mueller should agree to an interview with the president without questions, specific questions, being asked about obstruction of justice? >> i think mueller should insist
on asking the president any questions that he thinks relevant to his investigation, only he knows where the investigation is leading, only he knows what the evidence he already has is and only he can make that decision and the president is duty bound to answer any questions that the special prosecutor, special counsel, may ask. >> the president could drag this all out past the midterm elections in november, there's a good chance that democrats, they could win back the majority in the house of representatives which would make you the chairman of the house judiciary committee. as chairman, what actions would you take if the president refuses to comply with mueller's request for an interview? >> if the president refuses to comply with mueller's request for an interview, i would presume mueller would issue a subpoena. there's well defined case law from the nixon case that paula jones case with clinton that he would get the subpoena and he would answer. now, it's beyond imagination that the president would defy a
subpoena from the court. he could appeal it, but if the court makes a final decision then he must comply with the subpoena. he would have to. >> that could go all the way to the supreme court for a decision, right? >> it could, although i think it's a fairly open and shut case that would go very rapidly, i would think. >> your colleague told me yesterday he fears that the makeup, the current makeup of the supreme court could bode well for the president. >> that's speculation. it might. the fact is the nixon case was an 8-0 decision with four republican appointees, the case with bill clinton, the paula jones was pretty unanimous decision as i recall. unless the court is really changed to where it wants to be and wants to say the president's above the law, i don't see that as likely that they wouldn't grant the subpoena. >> some members of your party, the democratic party, they want to impeachment to be on the
at this point. we don't know a lot of the testimony, et cetera. it's certainly conceivable that cohen who is very close to the president in many ways for a long time could be a key witness. and particular, for example, as i recall, there is a statement or evidence or tape or something that cohen said that he was present, along with others, unnamed others, when the president agreed to that june 16th meeting in trump tower and that would be key testimony if that's the case. >> as far as we know, mueller hasn't yet interviewed michael cohen, do you think mueller needs cohen's testimony? >> that i don't know, because we don't know what he has already. >> well, let me ask you a final question while i have you. the election tonight the special election in ohio, how do you think the democrats are going to do? >> well, i think, you know, this is i think -- this is a district
that trump carried by 13 or 14 points. it's a district that's been republicans since 1982 and heavily so and the very fact that danny o'connor the democratic candidate is depending on the poll 1 point up or down is extraordinary. it shows that the democrats are way overperforming and if he wins it'll be a tremendous victory. if he comes close, that will be a tremendous victory, an indication of -- that we're likely to carry the house. >> the president carried that district by 11 points, but it's been about 30 years since a democrat represented that congressional district. >> if we -- if the democratic candidate comes close or wins, that shows a massive shift in the republican district toward the democrats and it would be right in line with what we've seen in other special elections some of which we've lost, but in all of which we've way overperformed in prior years and if we do that with the same percentages in november, we'll
win a great victory. >> let's see what happens. the polls close at 7:30 p.m. eastern in ohio. thank you for joining us. >> thank you. we'll have more on the possible trump/mueller interview if negotiations were to fall apart, though, could it wind up before the supreme court? we'll have more on the president's former lawyer and fixer, "the wall street journal" now reporting that michael cohen is being investigated for tax fraud. to get your windshield fixed. with safelite, you can see exactly when we'll be there. saving you time for what you love most. >> kids: whoa! >> kids vo: ♪ safelite repair, safelite replace ♪
earn a $50 gift card when you stay just twice this summer. or, badda book. badda boom. book now at choicehotels.com "the washington post" is now reporting that president trump's
lawyer rudy giuliani is reluctant to allow questions about obstruction of justice should the president be interviewed by the special counsel robert mueller. the president's legal team says it will have a decision on a possible interview soon. let's get some more from lisa monaco, she's the former homeland security and counterterrorism adviser to president obama. thank you very much for coming in. you're now a cnn national security analyst. if they can't ask the president questions about obstruction of justice, should there still be an interview? should mueller agree to that? >> what you're seeing on the president's lawyers' part is some posturing about these negotiations. they've now been going on if reports are accurate for months and what you're seeing from director mueller and his team is an effort to proceed in good faith to try and get information about the events that took place, both before and during the initial part of the president's term. so i think both sides are engaging in this. i think director mueller's
looking to do this in good faith and trying to get as full a picture and set of facts as he can. >> but if the interview negotiations fall apart, this could potentially, if there's a subpoena, wind up before the u.s. supreme court, what happens then? >> it could and that's the $50,000 question, right? there's a number of variables, one of which is the confirmation of the nominee judge brett kavanaugh to go up to the supreme court. i think, you know, congressman nadler had it right. there's pretty clear precedent here, notably with president clinton, a sitting president having to honor a subpoena. now that was in a civil case where the government's interests are actually less significant than in a criminal case. so i think what you'll see here is this play out and robert mueller and his team will proceed in good faith to try and assemble all the facts. >> what if the supreme court were to rule in the president's favor? >> i think it's too soon to speculate on that.
i think robert mueller and his team will put together certainly a report, that's what the special counsel regulations call for, then it will be up to deputy attorney general rod rosenstein, acting attorney general in this matter because of jeff sessions's recusal and it'll be up to him to determine how much of that report to make public. >> i want to get your thoughts on current u.s. efforts to make sure there's no russian meddling in the midterm elections coming up in november. we saw a big show of force over at the white house the other day. the president wasn't there but he authorized it. he gave the green light. is enough being done right now? >> look, i think that show of force last week was necessary, it was important and it was overdue. i think it's also notable, wolf, that you saw included in that assembly in the briefing room was fbi director chris wray and it is exceptionally rare for an fbi director to appear in the briefing room and to do anything in front of a podium that's
other than the department of justice or the fbi. so that was i think quite notable and it was a real show of force and it was important. is the administration doing enough? in my view, no. i think there needs to be a unified voice. the president needs to lend his voice to this to make sure that there's no schism between him and his team. there should be a cybersecurity coordinator, they should restore that position in the white house so there's somebody in the white house who is coordinating all of this, a whole of government effort. there needs to be more funding for the state to sure up their election security and systems and, frankly, there needs to be a unified view and more work and information exchanged with the social media companies. >> we heard the director of national intelligence dan coats say at that briefing that he wasn't in a position to, quote, understand fully what happened at the summit in helsinki between president trump and vladimir putin. shouldn't the top intelligence
officer in the u.s. government be fully aware of everything that happened during that meeting? >> yeah. wolf, this is a real head snapper. this -- the statement from dan coats last week that he did not understand, was not in a position to know what transpired in that nearly two hour meeting between president trump and our main adversary vladimir putin is really astonishing and, frankly, what it also says to me is, it was a real missed opportunity. normally what you would see is first of all, there would be other officials in that room, people who can record what's going on, who can take notes, who can feed that back to our intelligence community, to our russia analyst and incorporate that in our plans and our thinking going forward. and here we've clearly missed that opportunity. >> i want to get your thoughts on the manafort trial that's under way right now in alexandria, virginia. you worked at one point in your life as a federal prosecutor. you've also worked with robert mueller. what do you make of the
testimony of this star witness that's been there for the last couple days, rick gates, manafort's former deputy? >> i was the federal prosecutor as you mentioned and i have put big high stakes cooperators on the stand and that's what we're seeing now from mueller's team and these prosecutors are people who have done this before, they've put cooperating witnesses on the stand. i think what you're seeing them do is, one, use rick gates's testimony to corroborate other evidence that's already been put in and, two, very importantly, to bring the jury inside the scheme that he, by his own admission, rick gates, has done with paul manafort and describe the crimes they committed together. a lot has been talked about about the defense now trying to sully rick gates's testimony and his credibility. as a prosecutor, i didn't care if a jury liked my cooperating witness, i only cared that they believed him and he has every
incentive to tell the truth here because he gets no benefit of any deal with the prosecutors unless he tells the complete truth. >> if he lies he's in deep, deep trouble. >> that's right. >> thank you very much for coming in. >> thanks. just ahead, federal investigators wrap up pressure on president trump's former lawyer an fixer michael cohen. what does it mean for him and for the president? plus, live update on what's now the largest fire in california history in what president trump gets wrong about the state's ongoing fire disaster.

tonight sources are telling cnn that federal prosecutors investigating president trump's former personal attorney michael cohen have subpoenaed his former accountant and are examining financial institutions made loans to cohen. he's under investigation for tax fraud. let's dig deeper with our correspondents and analysts dana bash, what do you make of these latest legal developments? >> look, it goes without saying that for the federal government to get a warrant, a judge to say yes to a warrant to raid somebody's home -- well, or the hotel they're living right now, somebody's office and take the amount of documents and recordings that the feds did with michael cohen it means that they really had a tip that there was something bad going on.
the fact of the matter is, that cnn's reporting as you mentioned that his former accountant is being investigated and "the wall street journal" saying that he is being investigated for tax fraud probably shouldn't be surprising in that these are broad angles that we've known that the feds were looking in to. i think if you take it up maybe to a higher level here, what is interesting is this reporting with the manafort/gates trial or manafort trial with gates testifying as the backdrop, it's a reminder that these are all people who probably would, now they're allegations, but if they end up getting convicted for things, maybe would have gone under the radar had they not ended up being involved with the now president of the united states who has a special counsel looking in to him. manafort, the feds were looking into him for a long time
apparently and never could get anything and now they do. >> i suspect there's a lot of people that will regret being involved with the president of the united states and they're paying a price for that right now. don lemon you're here in washington right now. thank you. what do you make of what's going on with michael cohen? what do you make of the pressure being put on him right now? what does it mean for him and the president? >> i know michael cohen and i know that it's tough on his family and him, but just think about it. it's been about 15, maybe 16 weeks since this raid on his home. michael cohen still has not been charged. he says to me that he's not guilty. but it has been 15 to 16 weeks. what this says to me when you look at both the cnn reporting and "the wall street journal," "the wall street journal" said being investigated for possible tax fraud, right, possible tax fraud. that's a big word. i don't think we should underestimate that and discount that word, the possibility of,
but i think it means that michael cohen is a treasure trove. he's a treasure trove of information from the president. if you read into the reporting where it says that they're looking at whether the banks or people who were in charge of doing loans, whether they did everything that they were supposed to do as they were giving michael cohen loans, i don't know if that says anything -- >> i think -- what my assessment is, what worries the president a lot right now is not only what michael cohen knows and if he flips and were to tell all but allen weissleberg, who's been involved for 40 years, he's been subpoenaed apparently to testify before a grand jury. >> it all comes back to the president. they want information on the president. they figured that weissleberg and michael cohen are the two best sources for that information but i just find it interesting that michael cohen has not been charged with anything yet and it's been quite a long time. i don't know what they're holding out for. maybe something. it's been a while.
>> shawn turner is with us as well. what does it say to you that robert mueller handed over the whole michael cohen case from his portfolio over to the u.s. attorney for the southern district of new york? >> you recall that the reason that the special counsel did that is because in thecourseof their investigation what robert mueller's team found was that michael cohen potentially engaged in activity that's would have been violation of law under the southern district of new york's jurisdiction. when he turned it over, that was because that was something that was outside of robert mueller's scope. for the southern district of new york, as they investigate this, if they were to find that there is evidence or information that could relate back to the special counsel scope, then it is theoretically possible that this could end up back in front of robert mueller and his team at some point down the line. >> that would be a significant development. michael cohen clearly is up set. he doesn't feel he was getting the backing of the president during these initial months of the investigation, that he was
effectively being mistreated. what do you think? how worried should the president be about what michael cohen might say? >> i think it's clear that prosecutors are trying to squeeze michael cohen with the hopes that he might flip and we've seen increasing signs that cohen might be willing to cooperate. i think the reason this is so concerning for president trump is that for years cohen acted not just as trump's personal attorney but his self-confessed fix it guy. he has been intimately involved in overseeing both the president's personal and professional dealings and he keeps -- has kept a lot of the president's secrets. i think that -- although this is separate from the investigation to russian interference in the election, it is worth pointing out as shawn did that any documents that were seized by the fbi in that raid that are relevant to mueller's investigation could be turned back to the special counsel and if cohen were to flip and he were to cooperate, any information that he provides to the southern district of new york, the u.s. attorney's office there, that could also be shared back with robert mueller and his team and we've seen the
president tweet about cohen certainly that his signal that he is very worried about what information he might have to offer. >> we've also seen the president tweet about you, don lemon. we'll take a quick break. there are enormous implications of what's going on right now. stick around guys. you always pay your insurance on time.

we're back with our correspondents and our analysts. don lemon, you're here in washington. the president had that disgusting tweet the other day attacking you and lebron james. just walk us through how you reacted when you saw that and what is happened since? >> i didn't really -- i don't follow the president any more on twitter because it's too much and i find his tweets to be outrageous and i find them to be most of the time beneath the dignity of the office. i think that it's tough to sit here on television now and criticize the president. i think that we have more respect for the office than he does, so i didn't really know that he tweeted about me until my phone -- until people started saying, are you okay? oh, my gosh. i can't believe he's doing that and my response was, what are you talking about? and then they sent me a copy of what the president said about me and so i just thought about it for a little while and woke up the next morning and tweeted out what i said. who is -- who's the real dummy? is it someone who puts kids in classrooms as lebron james or
someone who puts kids in cages and separates their families at the border? and i stand by that. so i think it's awful. i think its disgusting. before i think this president traffics in racism. i do believe this president is a racist. i don't say that lightly. i think the evidence points to it and i did that on my program last night on my show. what he says about people of color, what he says about women, what he says about women and other people, he does, you know -- he's an equal opportunity offender but he also tramples over racial norms and sensitivi sensitivities. >> it started with congresswoman maxine waters before you, before lebron, he was going after her,
she was very critical of him. she was going after her saying she was low iq and he would ridicule her saying her iq was in the 60s. >> maxine waters has been in political life a lot longer than this president and will still be around when this president is out of office, so i think to call her a low iq individual is beneath the dignity of the office. we have to remember the president is supposed to be a statesman and statesman don't speak that way or write that way they don't conduct themselves that way. it would be -- it is incumbent upon the president to learn from his past mistakes and to try to correct them and to become a better person and better statesman, a better leader of all people, not just the people who voted for him. its incumbent upon the people in his own party to hold him to account because it's not up to me to hold him to account. i am not a lawmaker. i'm neither a democrat nor a republican. i'm not political. i simply give the facts. i did an interview with lebron
james. he shared his story. i think its incumbent upon the people, especially the people in washington to hold him to account. >> it is up to us to hold -- i know to hold our elected officials to account on the facts as you mentioned -- >> on the air, i'm talking about here in washington politically. >> i totally agree and i think the way that we can hold them to account in this particular discussion is lebron james it something and is doing something pretty remarkable that we would want all of the athletes that our children look up to to do, which is to give back to their community in a pretty amazing way, use their big fat salaries to do that and what don lemon is was bring that to the country and the world in the interview. yeah, lebron james made a statement not even using the president's -- specifically talking about the way that he's acting, but obviously about what the president has done with the nfl and that's his prerogative. and that's called discourse and
when you have anybody to respond to that with an attack, much less the president of the united states, it is important to call it out. >> go ahead. >> whenever the president makes comments we often spends a lot of time talking about the politics but it's also important to note that donald trump's views on race pre-date his political career. first of all, he launched his political career by questioning whether or not president obama, the first black president in the history of this country was actually born in the united states, but you think back to his time in new york in the early '70s, trump and his father, their company was sued in a racial discrimination lawsuit for a discriminating against african-american tenants. he took out the full page ad calling for the death penalty in the central park five case which, of course, those men were exonerated and yet trump continue today push the notion that they were somehow guilty and even on the campaign trail he tried to incite violence against black lives matter protesters and also suggested
that inner cities were war zones. we've seen enough evidence to support the notion that this is not just politics, perhaps this is what the president really thinks and believes. >> i think don used a very important word, he talked about racial norms and how the president is trampling on racial norms. there are people who harbor these kinds of views. what's really interesting is that prior to the president coming to office, our experience was that generally speaking people kept those views to themselves and what i think i want people to know is, as people of color can walk around and live their life, we are having a different experience as a result of the president setting a very different tone with regard to this sort of rhetoric. it's just important for people to know that this new tone, this new norm is having an impact on people that is unfair to a large portion of this country. >> when i saw what the president said about you, i remembered some of the interviews you've
actually done with donald trump. he's been on your show when he was a candidate earlier and i always thought that there was a mutually respectful relationship that you had with donald trump. >> let me go back before that. the last time i interviewed donald trump before he ran for office was the night that osama bin laden and it was before he was killed and we had a pretty -- we had a rou about the birther issue. it didn't get much pickup, he vowed he would never do an interview with me because he said i was racist, because i challenged him on an infactual statement -- >> that you're a racist? >> i was racist because the way i challenged him much in the way -- that i can't somehow be unbiased about an issue concerning race because i'm african-american. so he accused me of being racist. finally, he decided he would do an interview with me and my
producers intervened and we talked. he said, oh, my gosh, you're really g. i really expect you and he kept doing interviews with me subsequently after that, eight or nine of them. and then once he became president of the united states and you have to hold his feet to the fire, all of a sudden he doesn't like what i'm doing or when he gets something wrong or when he does something crazy or he says something crazy -- or tweets something that's just beyond the pale. all of a sudden he doesn't like me. during the campaign i was told that people, the only people that the campaign wanted to come on my show were the paid cnn contributors because they were afraid that the other people who were possibly going to be in the administration, work with donald trump, would be embarrassed bays challenged them in interviews. well, if you don't want to be challenged in interviews, then you need not be running for political office or to work for someone who's going to be president of the united states. that's the long and short of it.
i think he started out by calling me a racist and then what it ends up is again the conversation i've been having on the air with chris cuomo and others is that it is complete projection. if you look at this president, whatever he says, he is projecting. it's what he believes about himself. >> i was happy, though, that melania trump came out with a statement in support of what lebron james is doing in akron, ohio. >> i think that's great that melania trump did that. i give her credit for it. i don't know if we should read too much into it because i think we have to remember she was i abirther too. >> we'll see you later tonight. >> yes. >> 10:00 p.m. eastern. maybe we'll get the final results in ohio and some of the other key races that we're going to be watching. cnn's special coverage throughout the night on all of that. much more news right after this. , we really pride ourselves on making it easy for you to get your windshield fixed. with safelite, you can see exactly when we'll be there. saving you time for what you love most. >> kids: whoa! >> kids vo: ♪ safelite repair, safelite replace ♪

27,000 firefighters that are fighting fires across the western united states. over 585,000 acres have burned since this siege began several weeks ago. we're certainly making progress. many of the fires we're able to bring closer to containment including the carr fire that stephanie was just talking about there earlier propp but we're a long way from being done. the challenges we're facing is certainly very high temperatures, low humidities, and these onshore coastal winds that will pick up. and as you know, there's a heat wave in southern california right now and for the next several days. >> are you getting the help you need from the federal government, ken? >> we absolutely are. the coordination that's going on every day, not just here in california but throughout the western united states, we are working very closely with all of our partners, federal, state, and local, as well interagency coordination center in boise where all the resources are coordinated for the country in terms of wildland firefighting.
we are constantly sharing and making sure we have the ability to share critical resources. >> the president, president trump, says the situation is being made worse because environmental laws out in california are preventing readily available water from being used to fight the wildfires. is that true? >> we have plenty of water, astephanie said, to fight fires. many lakes we're accessing from helicopters to drop that water on the fires and our fire engines have access to water on the ground. and water sis of course just on of the many tools we use to fight fire. we drop retardants from air tankers. we have access to all of that and are readily deploying that on all of these fires. and i know you've been a firefighter for 30 years. is climate change making these fires worse? >> absolutely. the changing climate is impacting. as a career firefighter and having so many other career firefighters on the front lines, we are all seeing the change. the kinds of fires we're having right now, these 100,000,

>> mollie has been forever separated from her family. they will never see her reach her 21st birthday. they will never see that because she is permanently gone from the face of this planet because of an illegal alien. i want to remind elizabeth warren that you know what? the tragic loss of mollie is important to us. and the families that are separated at the border, they will come together again, mollie can never be with her family again. steve: she is absolutely right. it's too bad that it has become political to some people. it's the murder of a young woman. over on msnbc a couple of days ago university professor from fordham christina grier referred to mollie tibbetts simply as a girl in iowa. and joni ernst yesterday when she was on xm sirius. that girl in iowa, i think that's so disrespectful to mollie and her family. she is someone.
incredible thing. steve: okay. so there have you got the attorney general's boss, bad mouthing him on television. essentially buyer's regret. that was ainsley's question about there are rumors up on capitol hill that jeff sessions and rod rosenstein may get fired after the mid terms and he responded that way. well, mr. sessions, extraordinarily, issued a paper statement and, rachel, he fought back at the president. rachel: he absolutely did. he defended his position. he defended the people who work for him in the doj. but, you know, here's what he said. he says while i am attorney general, the actions of the department of justice will not be improperly influenced by political considerations. i demand the highest standards and where they are not met, i take action; however, no nation has more talented, more dedicated group of law enforcement is prosecutors and investigators than the united states. brian: not taking control of anything. he might be a great guy and
somebody that understands the law he can't run the department. steve: the president is just frustrated because jeff sessions essentially recused himself at the get-go. had he known, had the president know he was going to recuse himself, the president would have named somebody else. brian: sessions should have done it himself. senator lindsey graham says i'm friends with jeff sessions. i like him. this fracture really should take place but just after the election. the midterm election. listen. >> the president and the attorney general do not have a good working relationship. every president deserves an attorney general they have confidence in. as to jeff sessions, i have never met a finer man. he is a great senator and great lawyer. i think he has been a good attorney general. this is not working, so i hope the relationship gets better. if it doesn't, i would imagine the president is going to look for a new attorney general because what's going on is unsustainable. i'm not blaming anybody. i love jeff sessions. but, from my point of view, the country is not being
well-served with this much friction. brian: everyone has got to saying he got to fire jeff sessions. why should everybody with be strapped with an attorney general the way he does his job. likely senator lindsey graham will be the champlet judiciary. can he make sure if they hold the senate, which the republicans are supposed, to that another attorney general gets through. firing before the midterm elections would be impossible to replace him because they have boston readbostonkavanaugh ready to go. steve: 11 minutes after the top of the hour, jillian, let's talk weather. jillian: hawaii seriously bracing for a big storm right now. get at the a fox news alert. hurricane lane lashing the hawaiian islands in what could be the businessest storm there in 26 years. hurricane 3 hurricane causing flooding and mudslide concerns.

allegations let alone if they believe them. tom folly former candidate of attorney general. he joins us now. tom, what's the delay here. >> i don't understand it they are certainly serious allegations of domestic abuse and physical violence against keith ellison. and, yet, the dfl party in minnesota which is the democratic party and the dnc say they are reviewing it but to date we haven't seen any action. brian: he was accused by a liberal sierra club activist karen monahan of abuse not originally. originally came from her son and her son claims that there is video of this. >> well, what happened was it broke two days before the primary election. the victim's son broke it on social media. and then it was corroborated by the victim the next day indicating years of domestic abuse and at least one case of physical violence. and that there could be a video of this.
but the video has not appeared yet. but certainly, i think law enforcement and the democratic party should be looking at this. >> i would think. so it's bad news for the party and they successfully smothered it for now. karen monahan tweeted this out what my son said was true. every statement he made was true. keith ellison said you know you did that to me went on to say you know this is the same tweet. my fault. i have given every opportunity to get help and heal, even now you are willing to say my son is lying and have me continue to leak more text and info so others will believe him. she was not going to come forward. then when her son was called a liar, she came forward. and now she can't believe is he taking position is he taking. here is tom perez who runs the dnc. >> we take all allegations of sexual misconduct very, very seriously. and that is something we have always done. and that is something we will continue to do. and that's why the matter is under review.
brian: is that enough for you? >> no. they say it's under review. the dfl party said it was under review. two days later the party central committee endorsed keith ellison for attorney general. so, we don't know was there a review, if there's there was a review, what was the standard? i think the dnc should do the same thing. they should have him step down pending completion of this review or completion of this investigation. and it warrants a criminal investigation and i don't know why anything hasn't been done. brian: and you are a democrat? >> i am a democrat. brian: there we go it seems like a double standard here. tom perez refuses to say whether he believes the accuser. maybe there is video. is he running for top cop of minnesota. >> top legal officer of the state of minnesota. brian: thanks so much, tom, we will see where this goes. we reached out to keith ellison. we have not heard back. meanwhile. we have been telling you about conservatives being

steve: what were you putting on facebook. >> humor. we entertain millions of people and did it on a regular basis. there was no malice involved. there is no specific intent but we just got on there to entertain. steve: you were very successful. at the time facebook took you down, you were like the fifth biggest thing on facebook. >> we were ranked on facebook fifth most active page on the internet entirely. rachel: why would facebook take you down? >> competitive. the reality is they wanted the news feed in order to push their ads into the news feed. they needed to move everybody out of the way. this is something that effects irving. they needed that space. there is only a finite amount of space that puts into somebody's feed and they have to control it. and when they -- back in 2016, you know, late 2016, they shut down half of my network like that. it was gone. instantly deleted. steve: sean, we have heard stories about how the social media giants have shut down people of a political view
that maybe, you know, the people on facebook, twitter, et cetera, might not agree with this is different. it sounds like more for business than politics. >> imagine if you shut down fox right now for three seconds. people would lose their mind. he was unplugged and everything is about having the dependable and consistent reach to get to people for advertisers. his advertisers disappeared but facebook kept that reach for themselves or redistributed it to other people so they could make that money. essentially cut themselves in. they said if you want this reach, what we told you was for free, we have now wait anbaitand switched you opportuny cost building this business. you can't take any more and we will take our cut. steve: you agree when you go on facebook because it's free you agree to their terms. can that do that unsdz the service terms. >> that's an awesome question. the issue though is that we have laws in this country that protect against unfair anticompetitive business practices. there is legal terminology for things can you and can't do regardless of what
facebook's terms of service says. essentially says we can do whatever we want whenever we want but the law says something different. rachel: we reached out it facebook. facebook did not respond to our request. that said, you admit this is a david and goliath case. do you think you can win? >> do we think we can win? absolutely we can win. >> yeah, absolutely. >> we'll get our day in court and incredible battle. facebook can say we can do whatever we want it's our platform. we are thankful for a court and put this in front of jury. we destruction of a man's business. steve: jason, you were the little guy and built up to something substantial. you had the american dream and they pulled the plug on it. >> absolutely. i didn't have a big name because i didn't have a big name they pushed me out of the way. if you think about it like diamond and silk, it wasn't that they didn't get shut off, it was when they were shut off, they had a platform above that. that's when they said oops, sorry about that. we didn't mean to do it. steve: do you know what? diamond and silk are coming up next and discuss this
case. keep us posted and let us know what happens. >> thank you so much. steve: i have a feeling facebook is watching right now. rachel: democrat is running for congress and he wants healthcare for everyone. >> i believe that our country should make the moral decision to ensure that every single american has affordable and accessible healthcare when they need it. rachel: it turns out he hasn't always practiced what he preaches. steve: first it was michael cohen and the head of the national enquirer cut a deal with the feds. where does it go and what is in that guy's vault? diamond and silk, there they are. they are reacting next on this friday "fox & friends" ♪ i'm still standing problems and could be on the journey to much worse. help stop the journey of gum disease. try parodontax toothpaste. ♪ withwhat sore back?sk...

murderer is illegal alien. elizabeth warren says we are missing the point. >> i know this is hard, not only for the family, but for the people in her community, the people throughout iowa. but, one of the things we have to remember is we need an immigration system that is effective, that focuses on where real problems are. brian: what is with her? can she not address the issue? and she has to quickly pivot to politics? >> you know what? shame on senator elizabeth warren for being incentive and dismissive of the tragedy that happened to mollie tibbetts. that is so sad. the mere fact that she don't understanding that millions of americans to the millions of americans that want border security. it's the reason why she needs to be voted out of office. >> that's right. >> i heard her talk about family separation at the border. what about these families or these millions of thousands of americans that's being killed by illegal aliens that's being permanently
separated from their families. they will never be able to see their loved ones again. we need border security. we need a wall to keep illegals from coming in over to our country and committing crime. >> taxpayers pay people like elizabeth warren to work for we, the american people. not illegal aliens. if you don't want to work for the american people, then resign. >> that's right. steve: all right. one other story that has captivated the online world and we're talking about it this morning, ladies, is the fact that a mother who home schools her children, and the kids got a dog. and the deal was the kids would walk the dog around the block. well, the 8-year-old walked the dog around the block by themselves, one of the neighbors saw this happen, and they called the cops. and here's the statement from child services. we don't control the calls that come in to our hotline. something made someone think there was a concern and we don't know without checking it out. so what do you make of this
story, ladies? >> well, you know, first of all, when we were that age, we were able to ride our bikes around the block, walk the dogs and do all of that good stuff. steve: right. brian: and you survived. >> and we survived, right yes. i don't know did this is a nosey neighbor or neighbor that didn't like her neighbors and wanted to be vindictive. i haven't a clue. but i say this is clearly overreach. listen. you don't have to call social service for everything. i think this mother, she home schooled her child. she allowed her child to walk around the block and she was able to keep an eye on her child and that's what counts. people shouldn't be overnosey. rachel: isn't this a product of the sort of nanny culture we are in right now where everyone is sort of keeping responsibility away from kids. and we want them to have more responsibility. i think this mom was doing exactly that, giving the child responsibility. >> absolutely. brian: i remember willie from "duck dynasty," he had a rifle and tractor at 8. a little bit different of an

judiciary committee should immediately pause the consideration of the kavanaugh nomination. so here to join us today -- well, first of all, what does michael cohen plea have to do with kavanaugh. a former clerk of judge kavanaugh travis linkner. welcome, travis. >> good morning, thanks for having me. rachel: what does michael cohen plea have to do with the qualifications of judge kavanaugh. >> maybe this will be a short segment. the answer is nothing. judge kavanaugh is impeccablably credentialed and experienced with a 12-year judicial record. that's why the president nominated him. that's why that demonstration was widely praised. he has gotten such a good reception in the meetings has been having on capitol hill last several weeks with the hearings coming up after labor day. this new line that the activities of this week should somehow delay the totally separate confirmation hearing doesn't seem to be working and really is just the latest in
some things that have been thrown up against him that are not slowing down the process because people are seeing how qualified he is and how he deserves to be on the supreme court. rachel: right. last week they were explaining the democrats in the that the were complaining they weren't getting enough documents. kavanaugh was in a meeting with schumer when the news broke about cohen. and he asked judge kavanaugh something about trump and should he, you know, give into a subpoena if he was asked to speak and i guess the judge refused to weigh in on it. really ticked the senator off. >> well, i wasn't in that meeting so i can't speak to the meeting. but i do know that judge kavanaugh is someone who prizes judicial integrity and independence above all else. you will see at the hearing him follow what's known as the ginsburg rule which i know he has been following in those meetings with snearlts as well. that rule pretty simply is no hints, no previews. it's inappropriate for a judge or someone nominated to be a judge to say how they would rule in any particular situation.
and whether that disappoints a democrat or republican, that's the standard we have been following for decades. that's the rule judge kavanaugh is following in the process. >> sounds like good sound advice. thank you, travis, and thanks for your perspective on things you know the judge well and your view is well taken here. thank you so much. >> thank you so much. >> all right. the media's favorite word these days. >> impeachable. >> impeach trump. >> impeachment. >> impeachment is a word in play here in washington today. rachel: and now this top democrat is jumping on the bandwagon. plus, the left is taking over college campuses nationwide. and our next guest who voted for hillary clinton says liberalism has gone too far. ♪ i go crazy on you ♪ crazy over you ♪ let me go crazy

brian: describe it. >> yes. i voted for clinton. i have central left views. i had it anyway. pushed to the right as i explained. i thought it was going to be another election. i thought i was going to vote and i was happy to be in like in a really vibrant democracy i thought we would go from there and find our views and vote in the next election and seek to change what we could while we were here in the political system that we were given as opposed to this radical change in political views that we see today. steve: on the college campuses, it's just one view. there is no other view. it's just the way left view, period. >> very true. yeah. sos i agree with that there is this liberal orthodoxy. the thing that's aggravating in elite campuses just because like i say i call it the cannonnization of its own view. and i think there is this idea that if you are not a liberal you are an idiot so to speak. and that's the general idea,
right? it's liberal or the intellectuals. steve: how many conservatives are there at princeton? >> not many. not many. steve: if you were a conservative at princeton you wouldn't want to identify yourself because people are going to think you are an idiot? >> that's true. one of the things i should say princeton has been generally really good at this. the administration is really good at promoting free speech and there is a lot of dialogue. we have conservative professors. we have robby george. keith whitington. top tenured professors. steve: at princeton. >> they do a good job of encouraging intellectual diversity. the culture still is very much a liberal orthodoxy as you see it. steve: so, have you got some advice in your report with the republican party should do because you are -- you have been so disappointed in the reaction from the campus. >> yeah. i think republicans should go the exact opposite way. i think should -- i think republicans should sort of embrace the moderates and if you have to alienate anyone,
you should do it to the extremists it should go the opposite way and stop polarizing within your own party because that's just going to -- and i was really surprised at this in 42% of this country is independent. so you have this whole class of -- which means every republican, every democrat voted for the same person, you are still talking about a little more than the majority. steve: if a party want to win. >> tap into it. steve: go for the middle? >> tap into that uncommitted base and finding yourself with a gold mine, really. steve: right. it's a provocative op-ed. it's at the washington examiner. akhill thank you very much. >> it's nice to be here. thank you. steve: he wants to go to law school and change the world. >> thank you. steve: good luck to you. moments ago president trump tweeted about attorney general jeff sessions with his future up in the air we are live at the white house with somebody on the north lawn. plus, the left is focused on michael cohen pleading
guilty to campaign finance violations but one of hillary clinton's former advisors says she is the one who broke the law. he, mark penn, is going to join us live coming up. ♪ ♪

bar will he could you flavor. brian: you looked it up? steve: i did. i have a loft time on my hand when you take checks the cereal and shake barbecue stuff in there to make a snack. rachel: protein is good in the morning. actually. just go for the ribs. steve: barbecue is good all day brine brian my problem with ribs you need floss. you can't eat ribs and not have floss. how many people walk around with floss? you don't bring rope around with you when you leave in the morning. steve: brian, here is a solution. just take floss with you. brian: that's fine. i'm going to go for the mint flavor. i'm excited lee brice is going to be here. also capturing one of my mantras one of the names of the song big hit "i don't dance" which is also what i say every weekend remember i don't dance. steve: when you watch his videos he is not really dancing. he does not do any dancing. rachel: i'm excited to hear him and speak with hill. is he a family man and ask questions how is he balancing it all. brian: maybe he won't.
steve: busy two hours that starts right now, rachel? rachel: thank you. the white house could be in for a staff shakeup. steve: president trump clashing with attorney general jeff sessions over the direction of the department of justice. brian: peter doocy is live outside the white house with what's fueling the friction and what senator lindsey graham did about it. >> brian, president trump had rewarded jeff sessions for his early loyalty to the trump campaign by making him the attorney general. but, the president is still really mad that sessions recused himself from the russia probe and the attorney general apparently saw the president telling ainsley that he was still mad about it yesterday. sessions pushed back with this he said while i'm attorney general, the actions of the department of justice will not be improperly influenced by political considerations. i demand the highest standards and where they are not met, i take action. well, just a few minutes ago, the president saw that and responded. department of justice will not be improperly influenced by political consideration. jeff, this is great. what everyone wants. so, look into all of the
corruption on the other side, including deleted emails,
hush money. the whole idea is they regard it as a campaign violation. and so they are trying to connect all the dots and apparently some of the dots between donald trump and the payments go through the national enquirer. >> i don't see what the big deal is alan dershowitz, harvard professor, somebody who understands the election law, the law, constitution, all of the -- there is nothing there. donald trump can give money to his own campaign. as long as donald trump gave that money to, you know, shut up these mistresses, which by the way didn't really work very well. but, anyway, that's what he tried to do. he is allowed to do that to save his marriage and campaign for whatever reason. brian: back up -- he says michael cohen made the payments on the direction of then billionaire, he is still a billionaire then businessman donald trump. david pecker back that up
maybe in turn for immunity dose say that? then to your point, rachel, what does it mean legally to the big picture? turns out a lot of celebrities might have big issues that they don't want out if they want to run for public office. look at the attack right now on the president. what an agenda. now, let's look at his foundation. let's found out what his lawyer. let's raid his lawyer's apartment. go after and raid in the middle of the night paul manafort's place. he was there for three months. you cannot blame the president for feeling like is he being surrounded and targeted. the question is, fundamentally, arefully of these things illegal and if anyone is sitting out there in the business world saying to themselves i would love to run for public office. they are running for the hills right now. rachel: that's right. brian: this president was the first to do it and stuff that happened before he was even formally a candidate is coming back to haunt him. rachel: brian, i think your point is so good. there is all this chaos and all this stuff. you are right. the message to anyone who is
an outsider thinking about running for president is the political class doesn't appoint you or give you permission, then they will destroy you. that's the message. steve: so, regarding david pecker, apparently he had kept all these secret documents where he had arranged so-called capture and kill, arrangements with different people. they were in a safe, according to the associated press. and now it looks as if the feds are going to be able to take a look at it that's one of the reasons why if you click around on all the channels, every once in a while people mention a word that starts with an i. rachel: just a little bit. steve: here's that example over on msnbc just wednesday. >> if it is a crime, it certainly is an impeachable offense. >> impeach trump. >> impeachment. >> impeachment. >> impeachment. >> impeachment is a word in play here in washington today. >> the impeachment. >> impeachment. >> impeachment. >> impeachment. >> should the president be impeachment. >> impeachment. >> there are democrats who say there is now more than
enough to impeach. >> is itself impeachable offense. >> consider something as serious as impeachment. >> impeachment. >> impeachment process. >> the president will be removed from office after an impeachment trial. >> on the impeachment trial. >> talk about impeachment. >> want to talk about impeachment. >> impeachment right now. do not talk about impeachment. steve: that was both msnbc and cnn and you take a look at the number of times it was mentioned, in 18 hours on wednesday cnn 108 and over on msnbc 114. brian: by the way, for those political experts they know even if you are a democrat to use the word impeachment, what you are doing is igniting the trump base and you are igniting republicans who don't feel as though impeachment is something that they want to see happen. and that's why a lot of political savvy people like nancy pelosi and dick durbin are saying even though i probably want that, i'm not saying that because that will absolutely motivate republicans who might traditionally be asked to stand back. i would like to add something else that happened. lanny davis, maybe inadvert tently has confirmed what
most people know that michael cohen, who is listed in this dossier which might be mostly fiction because it's unverified, we don't know. yeah, nothing has changed. he was never in prague. he told jonathan swan nothing has changed in terms of his testimony in 2017. also on his testimony in 2017, did he say that president trump did not know in advance of any trump tower meeting under oath. steve: in other words, lanny davis confirmed the stuff in the dossier was fake. brian: by mistake, i'm sure. steve: lanny took a look and he said you know, that's just not right because i checked with my clients and he wasn't there. meanwhile, the president was on this program yesterday at this time and in one of the sound bites that ainsley got from him, here was his observation about what would happen if he were impeached. >> i don't know how you can impeach somebody who has done a great job. i will tell you what, if i ever got impeached, i think
the market would crash. i think everybody would be very poor. because without this thinking, you would see -- you would see numbers that you wouldn't believe in reverse. steve: so the message is if there is impeachment, if you like your life, it's going to go away. because people will be poor because there would be an impeachment, which brian, you are absolutely right. the more people talk about impeachment, the more of a silver bullet it is to the republican party because it energizes the republicans. they go, look. i like the way the election turned out. i don't like what they are doing to him. i'm going to go and vote in the mid terms which is generally an election that a lot of people don't vote. rachel: it's a good message. what would happen if the president was impeached. he has been a pretty good steward of the economy, nobody can deny that to ho would take charge of the economy, bernie sanders and elizabeth warren, now the democratic party is talking so openly about socialism. that's the direction we would go.
not, i think, what the american people want. brian: what you are seeing is somebody -- a group of people in this country that do not want president trump to be elected. if robert mueller was really fair and balanced, he said i'm going to look for russian collusion, when i see something that's wrong, i'm going to ferret it out. paul manafort go try him for something unrelated. michael cohen, see some indiscretions here. so off ramp him. well, when you are looking, did you look to see who paid for the dossier? did you look about fusion g.p.s.? did you see where it was listed in the hillary clinton camp? did you see iniquity in the way both cases were looked at? if he wanted to galvanize the country to believe the investigation was fair. he would be doing that it's only going one direction for stuff that happened before this president was even a candidate for president. steve: so the more people talk impeachment, the more it riles up the republicans. rachel: absolutely. that was the concern the republicans had going into the mid terms, the economy iis good. could they get their base
out to vote. steve: secondary issue. 12 minutes after the top of the hour. brian: democrats focused on pleading guilty. one of hillary clinton's former advisors is says she is the one who broke the law. mark penn joins us live. steve: plus, elizabeth warren always slams the 1 percenters. >> the proposal from the republicans is just cut. that's the only way that they can produce tax cuts for millionaires. steve: it turns out she is one of them. her numbers coming up. ♪ you know it don't matter anyway ♪ can you rely on your old man's money ♪ you can rely on the old man's money. what pain? with advil
we are seeing right here. mr. penn, you say there is a double standard that has been applied to hillary clinton and to the president. >> look, i think everybody sees that a double standard occurred here that the investigations related to the email were handled with kid gloves. and the investigations related to trump, you know, handled with, let's say all-out prosecutorial force of government and deep state might. and everybody sees how these two things were handled differently. steve: yeah. i was reading this morning, i do believe i read that while mr. comey made the case, look, we looked through all of her emails, there was 700,000 of them apparently. apparently they only looked at 3,000. so there does seem to be a different standard. but, mark, why is that? >> well, look, i can't say why. because i don't know the motivations. the important thing now is this has real relevance to american politics. i don't care if they would have given them both light treatments but to give one, particularly, the newly elected president from day
one this kind of scrutiny of all his campaign aides, of all his associates and basically looking for crimes so that they could flip them. look what happened here with cohen. they found several million dollars of tax problems with cohen and they got him to plead to crimes that i don't even think were crimes when it comes to election law. steve: right. the news this morning as the tabloids here in new york and elsewhere, it's all about how, sounds like the guy who runs the national enquirer is getting an immunity deal so he can kind of connect some dots about were there any capture and kill situations that could have been campaign violations? >> well, and you see, he is the person actually making the contribution or expenditure, so they are not really interested in that. they are only interested in tying things to trump on matters that we already decided, look, i went through impeachment with president clinton. these issues about what happened with women is they are consensual and legal activities can't be turned
into crimes. the american people won't stand for that same thing with john edwards who was acquitted and the fec ruled these things were not campaign violations. they are personal expenditures. steve: if there weren't a double standard. look at what jeff sessions said yesterday. i'm running the department there should never be political consideration. if that's the case, there shouldn't be a double standard. >> well, look here. there is about $130,000 that went to stormy daniels october 27th, would never have been reported before the election anyway. so the whole thing is immaterial. and you have millions of dollars spent by the democratic law firm incorrectly reported as legal research when, in fact, it went toe ultimate beneficiaries g.p.s., fusion and the foreign spy. that was covered up and, yet, they do nothing about that. now, look, either say both of these are civil matters or both of these got to get the same investigation. steve: let's see what happens. mark penn a pleasure.

and at this stage in the process, it's not proper. brian: really in mollie's funeral is scheduled for sunday in iowa. vintage warplane crashes and bursts into flames. and somehow and thankfully the pilot survives. the korean war jet slamming into the ground as it tried to land at an airport over in minnesota. two witnesses jumping a fence and pulling the pilot to safety. he was rushed to the hospital in critical condition expected to survive the cause of the crash is under investigation. and that's what's happening. steve: plus, more. the media meltdown over president trump continues. take a look at this "time" magazine cover showing the president looks like is, in over his head drowning in the oval office with the headline in deep. brian: but is the media itself drowning in its bias? rachel: here to weigh in is scott adams the dilbert cartoon win bigly in where facts don't matter. scott, i'm a big fan of your show.
i brought my cup so we can coo have a simultaneous sip as do you at the start of your show. it seems like you don't have a cup of coffee with you. >> no, i'm traveling without coffee. rachel: i will take one for you. so, you said recently, by the way, you were on twitter and you said that you judge the president as you would judge your plumber. what do you mean by that? >> well, if my plumber has some personal problems, but he fixes my pipe. i'm okay with my plumber. and likewise, i don't think anybody voted for the president for a role model. i never even heard of that i have never heard of anybody you know, i really thought he was going to be my role model for all elements of my life and my children wouldn't need me anymore and i don't even need to be a parent. i will just turn on the tv and let them look at the president. i don't think anybody thought that when they voted for him. so, at least his supporters are not disappointed in anything as long as the economy is good and the world is ticking along okay.
steve: suddenly poo tuts can stand for plumber of the united states of america. hey, scott, let me ask you this though. what did you makes a a guy who has drawn a million cartoons in his life in the visual display. what did you think of that time magazine display with the images of donald trump over his head apparently on the verge of drowning in deep? >> in terms of imagery, it's really great. you notice we are in this two completely different realities now. in one reality the president keeps violating all these things which are not actual laws. so, for example, there was owe a collusion that isn't illegal. the obstruction that didn't happen. the meeting at the tower that wasn't illegal. and now the payments to stormy that are totally legal. so part of the country believes that he is a serial law breaker. the other side sees absolutely nothing happening. and i usually apply what i call the big foot test to those two realities. which is two hunters go into the forest and they come back and one of them says we
talked to big foot and the other hunter says i was with you the whole time, i didn't see big foot. which one of them is crazy? well, it's usually the one who is seeing stuff that isn't there. this are at least four crimes that the people at cnn can see completely clearly just as well as they can see big foot in the for rest and the rest of them and alan dershowitz who seems to know a lot about the law says i don't see any crime here. brian: take it one step further. if the rest of the big foot's family was paid off not to say that they saw big foot in the woods because everybody in and around president trump is under siege. meanwhile, carl bernstein gets thrilled every time the president sunday siege because they dust him off, wheel him out so he can equate it to watergate. let's listen. >> what we're seeing is worse than watergate. >> what we're seeing now is the egregious conduct of the man who was the president of the united states with no regard for the rule of law
before he was president, in his campaign, or as president of the united states. brian: what a deal he has got he can stay in new york and doesn't have to walk in the studio even though their studio is in new york. he said worse than watergate. he said that 500 times already. >> every time the president is accused of something that sounds bad when you first hear it, i get worried until karl comes on and says it's worse than watergate. oh, few phew, that's nothing. that's sort of your signal. but look at the situation where we have now where the critics of the president would have us believe that he is totally normal and sane in public and he is in public all the time. steve: right. >> as soon as the cameras go off and he is in private, he goes a little bit nuts and insane and crazy and thank god for those unnamed sources keeping an eye on him. meanwhile, the people who are his critics are going crazy right in front of us, you know, phil mud and bill
maher and brennan calling him a traitor. right in front of us they seem a little bit unhinged but apparently their story is that when we are not watching they are completely fine. so, it's sort of the reverse of the president depends whether the camera is on you or not. steve: scott adams joining us from the lake, apparently. [laughter] steve: scott, thank you very much. have a good weekend. rachel: thanks, scott. brian: good luck catching carp. steve: is he looking for big foot. brian: 30 minutes at the top of the hour means the big hand is all the way to the bottom. woman burns american flag that's just the beginning. rachel: lee brice is hanging in the jillian corner. is he performing live on the all-american summer concert series coming up steve: good morning. ♪

truck. thank you some. it hit home for ms. ginger. and she had told me the story just behind kind of the scenes hey this is why the song means so much to us because we sold his truck and we wished -- it was his daddy's truck, too. it was a special truck. and so, it just hit me like hey, i told my manager and everybody, we have got to find this truck. rachel: good for you. steve: found the truck and presented it live on the air. in the history of "fox & friends" it was perhaps one of the top five most emotional moments. >> well, man, for me, too. it's an honor to be a part of anything like that. steve: lee is going to start singing here in 20 minutes. brian: what are you going to be singing? >> well, we got new stuff and old stuff. there is a rumor going around would are coming out here in a little bit. brian: a rumor. steve: meanwhile, coming up on this friday, it's not just president trump saying it. target's ceo says this has been the best economy he has ever seen. charles payne is joining us outside.
he is going to talk about that coming up next. brian: he just wants to meet lee brice. say hello to lee.
oh, for your wedding?! no, my ex-boyfriend's wedding, he's confused. jason! mix and match airlines to save more. brian: u.s. employers still not tired of winning under president trump, so to speak. rachel: ceo brian cornell waiving about the economic boom that's going on right now. >> it's a very healthy consumer environment. we are seeing a great consumer response. unprecedented traffic. as we go back and look, we have never seen traffic growth like this. steve: so what's going on? let's talk to charles payne the host of making money on the fox business network. charles, good morning to you. >> good morning. steve: why is the president on target with target. >> is he on target with target because the american consumer is back big time. i say big time. so funny, we talk about all of these consumer surveys and sentiment and poll numbers. the ultimate survey is how people spend or don't spend their money. right now it's amazing. we have all of these retailers in the last three
weeks reporting earnings, it's not just target. walmart posted a number out of this world. children's place posted their best same quarterly earnings. brian: just from rachel's family. >> just from rachel's family. here is the interesting thing about it it's being driven by foot traffic. people are feeling so good, not only hundreds of thousands of people coming back to the job market, but they are leaving their homes. they are going to the mall. steve: i thought they only shopped online. >> that's amazing, right? brian: critics will say and cbo predicted this is a sugar high. short-term tax cuts, a sugar high. what do you say to that. >> one thing we do know about economics is it seems to flow in certain trends, right? this success is creating what i call and what the economists call the virtuous cycle. they couldn't create it artificially when the fed created $3.5 trillion and gave it to banks. thinking it would somehow fall on main street. this is how you generate real authentic cycle it will
not fade any time soon. in fact it will get stronger. rachel: walmart and target is going well middle america is going well. >> dollar general at all-time high the cosco at all-time high. these stocks reflect main street. main street has the confidence to go out. also we are seeing businesses. businesses are piling money into new projects. on the economic front we are firing on all cylinders. brian: will we hear more on your show. >> absolutely and how to make money. because that's the key thing, right, folks? [cheers] brian: key is for charles payne to make money. steve: straight ahead on this friday, president trump up and tweeting about attorney general jeff sessions this morning. live at the white house with a tweet at the top of the hour. brian: yeah. he hired him. is he a hall of fame running back and now you can call damion tomlinson an actor? >> those are missing brothers and sisters.
brian: powerful story behind his new movie that's coming up. steve: thank you, charles ♪ she is golden rule ♪ teaches school ♪ frequent heartburn waking him up. now that dream is a reality. nexium 24hr stops acid before it starts for all-day, all-night protection. can you imagine 24 hours without heartburn? you shouldn't be rushed into booking a hotel. with expedia's add-on advantage, booking a flight unlocks discounts on select hotels until the day you leave for your trip. add-on advantage. only when you book with expedia.

disabled american veterans. here with more is disabled veteran himself jim searcy and damion tomlinson who looks like he can still play who plays pastor williams in the film. welcome, guys. >> thank you. brian: in vietnam, what happened? >> i stepped on an enemy land mine on january 11th, 1969. resulted in the traumatic amputation of both of my legs and left arm. brian: what made you make this for your life? >> i think it was a natural to belong to the disabled american veterans because that's what they're all about is reaching out and touching the lives of veterans like myself, certainly others, younger generation coming home from iraq and afghanistan as well. brian: people that know you know you are extremely patriotic guy. how important is this move movie for you. >> extremely important proceeds will benefit dav. and these guys are true heroes. people talk about sports athletes as heroes. we are not heroes.
we entertain our country. but these guys go fight for our country. brian: right. play like warriors, that's the thing that they want. also, when you watch people serving in the military athletes seem to be a natural bond there. >> i think it is. just the training regiment that most of us go through. the idea that you have to go into battle together as a group. but, certainly, we are not fighting for our lives, they are. brian: how did you like acting? >> it was fun. good. it was a challenge. my background of playing sports, it's a great challenge. i love challenges and it was hard though. i have got to say that. brian: you look like a natural. i know that and i know you are a broadcaster too now. let's take a little bit more from the movie. >> and if they are willing to turn to him with just the tiny seed of faith, he will show them that nothing is impossible.
brian: wow. great job. you memorize that? >> i did, yeah. brian: that's the hardest part. >> here's the thing. playing football for so long, every week we studied the playbook and studied the game plan for a different opponent. so i took that part of my background and applied it to this movie. brian: jim, how was he? >> fantastic. brian: what does it mean for you to have this book come out. >> past commanders of the dav, i'm thrilled that the dav was a part of this and that they were willing to embrace the inspiration of it and pay tribute to those men and women who served and sacrificed and the message it brought of courage and hope is just phenomenal to all of us that have had a chance to view it. brian: having said that we're back with the same controversy for another year it seems networks have to decide whether they should show players in the nfl kneeling or not. what's your stance on this? >> i think the nfl is doing a great job of coming together and creating dialogue. nfl players association and
the owners. coming together to find a solution because the social issues are what they are. and, you know, it's a good thing that we are talking about it. and people mention the protests and kneeling. many guys are not doing that most of the guys are standing and representing this country in the right way. brian: do you wish they would all stand? >> of course, yeah, you know, at the same time i think the social issues are what they are we do need to have dialogue about it and come to some kind of solution. brian: do you agree, jim? >> well, i have a personal opinion which may be different from that of the dav or others. but i think the short period of time it takes to stand for the national anthem or pledge of allegiance i would like to see everybody do that everywhere. that's the way i was raised. brian: thanks for this movie, guys. so glad for a great cause. another thing do you football player, broadcaster and now ache tomplet multidimensional. have you always been a triple threat. the broken road.com god
blows the broken road.com to find out more. more "fox & friends" in just a moment. thanks, guys. >> thank you. . .
>> despite evidence from ice christian rivera attorney is insisting client's legal status is unclear. >> that's rhetoric. we are dealing with an vining that has middle school education >> we need border security, we need a wall to keep illegals from coming in over into our country and committing crimes. steve: president trump clashing with attorney general jeff sessions over the direction of the department of justice. >> the president and the attorney general do not have a good working relationship. every president deserves an attorney general that he has confidence in. rob: what could be the biggest storm in 26 years. jillian: 20-inches of rain in nearly 24 hours, an illinois mother investigated after

as people sing along in front of world headquarters. fourty-eighth and sixth avenue, what a great crowd outside, a bunch of people celebrating birthdays, a couple of people met were celebrating anniversaries and one couple actually celebrating their honeymoon at "fox & friends" on friday probably because we catered. >> i had a couple that celebrated 33rd anniversary. lots of celebrations. brian: i didn't meet anybody because i had to run into the segment. steve: as you would like to watch the songs foxnews.com/concert. [laughter] >> he's a great guy. you're so happy that's the kind of guy that gets to be that
famous that good, that talented. brian: he's getting on my nerves a little bit. he's to happy, too much. meanwhile this story. steve: the white house could be ready for staff shake-up. brian: president trump clashing with jeff sessions. >> peter doocy live outside the white house with what's fueling the friction, peter. >> president trump is actually now taunting the attorney general on twitter, he just wrote this, exnsa contractor spent 4 years, this is small potatoes to what hillary did, so unfair, jeff, double standard, latest in back and forth that really escalated yesterday when sessions showed up at the white house for an unrelated meeting minutes after pushing back on the president's complaints that he rescued to russian investigation. the president's reply to that
also came this morning on twitter with two-parter and said department of justice will not improperly influenced by political considerations, jeff, this is great, what everyone wants, so look into all of the corruption on the other side and mueller, strzok, christopher steele and phoney corrupt dossier, russian collision but dems and so much more, open up papers and so much more, open up papers without redaction, come on, jeff, you can do it. the country is waiting, forecasting potential change at main justice. >> i hope the relationship gets better. if it doesn't, i would imagine the president is going to look for a new attorney general because what's going on is unsustainable. >> senator graham says it's very likely the president replaces sessions after the november midterms. back to you in new york.
steve: peter, thank you very much. remember in the old days when you covered the white house and would have to interview people all you need is smartphone. zooming through twitter these days, it is very clear the president knows he cannot fire jeff sessions. he can't before the midterms, but all this pressure do you think he's trying to get him to quit today? brian: no, because we can't confirm somebody else, we have too much on the agenda, they only have a few weeks of work before midterms. >> you're right, maybe can't do it before midterms, maybe not a good idea before political midterms, good for him, he'll not just speaking for himself, i think he's speaking for a lot of people who voted for him who are looking at ag sessions, we are nonpolitical and following the law, if that's true, why aren't you going after hillary clinton? steve: all sorts of rumors on capitol hill, i'm sure you heard
them rachel, sessions is gone, rosenstein is gone and a number of prominent names being circulated as replacement. brian: senator sessions becomes attorney general sessions because he's on campaign and can't oversee russian meddling investigation, that's one, he leaves seat wide open, here comes unelectable roy moore and goes to democrat, you lose the session seat in that one-seat advantage in big picture. steve: you didn't know roy moore was unelected at the time time of the transfer. brian: let's go where eric holder ripped president obama, t have any. it is crazy. >> why does sessions want that job? if my boss hate med that much, why work there? steve: he goes home and says i
didn't get fired today. brian: he wants prison reform, everybody wants to get this done, if mr. law and order sometimes jeff sessions doesn't want to get that done, that might put the president over the edge. steve: keep in mind, had he had an attorney general that did not have to recuse himself there would be no robert mueller looking into all of this stuff and that's the frustration. meanwhile let's talk about the lead story all week long in brooklyn, iowa, the body of mollie tibbets found in cornfield. alleged murder christian rivera, medical examiner said she died of multiple sharp injuries probably something like a knife, meanwhile he did have a government id. apparently it was not issued by the state of iowa, he also had apparently a fake social security card number,
nonetheless his attorney alan richards defends his status in this country. >> that's rhetoric. >> either he is here legally or illegally. >> that's your point of view, martha. >> he came here illegally is part of the equation, to say that's bringing politics into it, i think you're putting rhetoric and point of view on it. >> we are dealing with individual that has middle school education, his perception is entitled to equal protection and due process. now you can jump to it and say these are the facts but that doesn't make them facts because you say so, martha, the situation he's involved with concerning his status has nothing to do with the situation that unfortunately happened over in that road in brooklyn. i'm sorry. he's in entitled to a hearing on immigration issue. brian: he's entitled to hearing on immigration issue, he's also entitled to open up about what
really happened, he claims -- here is the body, i saw it but i blacked out in the interim, i ended up finding the body in my trunk and then i put it here. that is obviously not going to fly, we need details on that and rachel to your point earlier, did they know each other, do we know that facebook followers, mollie was a facebook follower of his girlfriend. steve: mother of his child. >> the aunt of the girlfriend said she had a conversation with the alleged killer christian about this disappearance and he actually commented on it and said, wow, i can't believe it is happening, small town, all of that will be investigated. i think it's interesting with the attorney, listen, there's a murder, but the status, the legal status of my client in this country has nothing to do with this murder and he wants to separate the two which as a parent i find interesting because the whole idea of illegal immigration especially
in this case is safety and security, every parent with a child going off to college, mine is next month was following the story was worried about, you know, what that -- what that meant for their own kid. i told my daughter, i don't want you running alone. i want you to take self-defense classes, we all care, his status does have something to do with it. steve: he does, ultimately if he were not in this country she would not be dead. brian: right. toaf -- steve: all there is to it. brian he should have prethought it. some of the stuff was crazy. ten minutes after the hour, jillian you have the other news. jillian: good morning, major weather news, let's get you caught up with fox news alert. hurricane lane slashing hawaiian islands, category 3 hurricane sparking massive flooding and landslide concerns, streets
turned into rivers, 20-inches of rain in nearly 24 hours. [sirens] jillian: you can hear that? hurricane sirens to warn beach goers, moves close to maui and live report in a few minutes for that. california congressman duncan speaking exclusively to fox after pleading not guilty in court, the congressman and wife indicted of allegedly use 250g thousand of campaign funds for personal finances and false records. >> by traveling, having dinners, that's how people get to hear me, donate money. this is pure politics and the prosecutors can make an indictment like the scandalist novel that they want to. jillian: he said he won't resign. the vice president making out of this world about face, moments
ago, it is now the official policy of the united states of america that we will return to the moon, put americans on mars and once again explore the farthest depths out of space. he pushed to establish face -- space force and moon orbiting station. steve: excellent. people in texas are more excited. more jobs. brien: remind me. jillian: okay. brian now head of national inquirer is cutting deal with the fed, he has immunity, where does this end? geraldo rivera went to law school. steve: plus mother let her 8-year-old daughter walk around with the dog and one of the neighbors called the cops, why, we will tell you.

money payments by mr. cohen. brian: they want to look at campaign violations. geraldo rivera, little by little they are cutting into the president's personal life before he became a candidate, why? [laughter] >> it seems to me the better question is whatever happened to russia collusion? steve: yeah. >> it is pretty apparent and pretty obvious that the strongest evidence the southern district or robert mueller has against the president of the united states so far is something that we have been hearing about for well over a year, 130,000-dollar direct payment to stormy douglas, the playboy playmate and catching the story and killing it.
reminds me of bimbo eruptions during clinton administration when he started being delivered and the president, married man, covering up his affairs with, you know, catherine and juanita and paula jones, alleged affairs, seems to me, here we all all the grand cosmic issues and all comes down to this married man now president of the united states, covering up these elicit relationships while married to melania well before political career, immediate exposure let's put it that way. steve: geraldo, if payments were made, you know, obviously
campaign violation, anything illegal? >> well, michael cohen in his plea says that what he did was make illegal campaign contribution that he admits to a crime but his admission, steve, this is the interesting part, just because michael cohen mean he committed the crime doesn't necessarily that he really did commit it or anybody else down the chain including the president of the united states committed the crime. i think that it is a very close question, for example, as professor dershowitz says, if i wanted to pay two women of ill repute or wonderful repute, if i wanted to pay them $250,000 out of my own pocket and running for president, i can legally do that, can i take, here is yours, here is yours, walk away, that's my business, it's hush money, sounds harsh, but if out of your
own stash it's legal. for american media presumably to pay this woman with no intention of running her story, an argument can be made that they were, in fact, giving campaign contribution to donald trump without reporting the campaign contribution, that's why the immunity deal from david -- to david pecker was important to him, to protect him, protect his company and then, you know, they say and i just want to do in one sentence, i ceo of media company at the request of donald trump worked together, that's what michael cohen said in court. i still think there's no big deal here. >> tell every other channel, thanks, geraldo. straight ahead, you see it in stadiums around the country but the media says they are threat
to democracy, our next guest is retired marine and says they couldn't be more wrong. here... or, here. kick your antacid habit with prilosec otc. one pill a day, 24 hours, zero heartburn. in your wireless mouse? maybe not. maybe you can trust that during your fantasy draft, the computer won't autodraft a kicker in the 7th round. or... you could just trust duracell.
>> oh no. oh no. oh, god. steve: what was he doing? apparently he's head today jail, raymond will spend 130 days behind bars for harassing wildlife. he probably won't do that again just saying. all right, rachel, brian. >> have you ever been to a professional sports game and seen patriotic display including giant american flag or military family reunion, apparently they're a threat to democracy and changing patriotism in america. brian: thought for one person, lieutenant colonel writes this, the military of sports should be seen inappropriate, all wrapped in gay -- gigantic flag with
stars and stripes. >> jack, thanks for joining us. >> good morning. >> the sound of the jets going over the stadium, that's the sound track of my childhood, we called it the sound of freedom, i'm sure it's used by recruitment tool by the military, what's wrong with that? >> there's really nothing wrong and if you look at marketing for everything people display capability positive or negative but to me it's more positive. brian: why do you think people have a problem with this? >> a lot of people are stuck and should really look at the bigger picture and the narcissism possibly, the leftism, i really don't understand because without the people that protect us we have nothing, we have no freedoms and rights and we end up becoming a third-world nation. i really don't comprehend it as patriotic american. >> we have seening kneeling to the flag and more complaints about displays of patriotism, do
you think we will get to a point where people say, listen, even the owners of the teams in the and a half or whatever say, listen, we are just not going to do this, we don't wand to offend people? >> possibly, i think money, greed rules a lot but with that there's so many multimillionaires in the professional arena, if they have disdain for officers in the military, why don't they hire their own, they can hire their own private police officers for a hundred thousand dollars a year and employ police officers in horrible regions in chicago, that's where it started with collin standing or kneeling, wearing pig socks, hire your own police force and chief of police and have them report back to you and it would alleviate all the problems. brian: for the most problem they love having the military, the athletes, there's a natural draw, don't you think? >> i think so. lt came beforehand.
they need self-expression. i don't deny that. we don't have time for 100 players to express towards country that flag represents the citizens and not just military. >> the fans seem to love it. brian: espn said they will not televiced the national anthem. we are not going to know who is kneeling or standing unless you're at the game. >> i guess i won't be watching then. >> well, one way to respond. thank you. brian: jack, thanks for your service, he has no problem showing military at professional arena. that's different than huffington post or the writer. >> thank you, jack. a mother let 8-year-old daughter walk dog around, that's what i would tell my kids to do, the neighbors called the cop, what do people on the streets think? brian: first lee bryce.

>> a big storm. we are looking at winds of 120 miles an hour gusting to 150. a really slow mover. what does that mean? these bands of rain keep running over the same places again and again and again and that is when you see flooding. we saw it on the westernmost island, the island of hawaii. you track this over the next 12 hours or so it does we can from a category 3 down to a category one and then a very sharp turn out to see. as it weakens the winds die down a little bit but the rain continues to fall. we need this to turn very sharply. it will do so but there are several tracks, a couple to the mainland and the couple turnout earlier. what we hope is a quick turn out for this. whether it makes landfall or not we are talking a lot of rain, the big island 30 to 40 inches, maui somewhere between 10 to 20 inches. a lot of rain on the way with this one.

that is what triggered a lot of people about what she said. senator joni ernst had this to say. >> mollie tibbetts has been forever separated from her family. they will ever see her reach her 21st birthday, they will never see that because she is permanently gone from the face of this planet because of an illegal alien which i want to remind elizabeth warren the tragic loss of mollie tibbetts is important to us. the families that are separated at the border will come together again. mollie tibbetts can never be with her family again. >> it is clear in the run-up to the election both sides are going to use immigration to rally their base, democrats will talk about how the president separated families at the southern border and what a terrible guy he was for doing that. the republicans are going to be saying we have a problem on the southern border, we need to
tighten things up. >> we hope to get some type of deal on daca and the wall and hopes to get $5 billion out of the house. >> on capitol hill they had chances to do it and didn't do it. was it politics? >> probably. the president had a good simple plan that seems reasonable to me. >> i want the wall. >> the georgia line, we are talking rice is coming up next on fox squared, the new hit rumor. let's check in with sandra smith. >> i enjoyed listening to that one. good morning. hurricane lane pummeling hawaii. the latest on the monster storm and where it is heading next. jeff sessions is pushing back. how he is responding.

he said the government seychelles tries to lose revenues with more aquaculture and tourism. this is the the view of business asia. as western economies are struggling to maintain growth asia is powering ahead in its latest economic outlook the asian development bank is forecasting konami growth rates of more than five percent for the near future driven largely by india and china but analysts say where this growth there's also risk the red flags might have been waving bravely at the beginning of march in beijing but the people's congress that took place then focused at first on risks and problems chinese premier league kick young claims the united states for slowing growth around half of all his country's exports to the us have now been slapped with tariffs. china is the largest economy on the continent growth there is now hovering around six percent that's lower than at any point
since one nine hundred ninety and it's having effect all over asia. continent wide growth slid to six percent and twenty seventeen but last year it hit the skids even harder than its forecast for twenty nineteen the asian development bank predicts growth numbers will continue to drop it expects the trend to continue until at least twenty twenty. and asia is facing a range of other risks as well including potentially serious disasters caused by climate change like the record breaking flooding that hit the southern indian city of corolla last year it killed hundreds of people and destroyed the homes of over two hundred thousand more in its report the development bank also warned that these kinds of catastrophes would hit poor countries and regions hardest because their economies were especially vulnerable to the effects of climate change. and the region looks set for growing even stronger singapore's trade minister said
wednesday he was hopeful that the asia wide free trade pact our c.e.p.t. back by china and excluding the united states could be sealed by the end of the year the topic will dominate discussions at the three day meeting of finance ministers and central bank chiefs of the group of nations the group has been around for more than fifty years it's made up of ten southeast asian nations founding members include thailand singapore and indonesia together all ten member countries have a population of six hundred forty million people that's more than the entire european union as a whole has a combined economic output of two point eight trillion dollars a year and that's trillion with a t. . the region is growing fast and is expected to become the equivalent of the world's fourth largest economy by twenty fifteen so that meeting is kicking off in thailand today to find out a bit more about what's at stake there let's bring in our correspondent heartache
who joins us from bangkok will that r.c.p. free trade agreement that push in that meeting or might there even be a breakthrough. i don't think there is going to be a breakthrough just yet and i think part of the reason for that is that there is some of the major countries that are supposed to be part of this agreement there. as elections coming up for example in the next few months in india for example and also in indonesia and australia so i don't think we're going to see substantial progress until after those elections but as you said there is there are high hopes that this agreement can be signed by the end of the year after seven years of difficult negotiations and that would be important to offset the negative effects of economic disruptions like for example the ongoing trade war between the u.s. and china talk about the u.s. . isn't america pushing nations further towards china.
well i think by pulling out of the transpacific partnership the u.s. has left a vacuum in this region that other countries now are desperately trying to fill for example japan which is trying to intensify relations and trade relations with southeast asian countries it's pledged a lot of aid to countries in this region it's investing heavily in infrastructure of course to counter tyner's growing influence because you have to understand that china is poor and huge amounts of money into countries in this region especially through its belt and wrote initiative and of course by doing that it's pulling these countries into its sphere of influence economically and politically and the countries here or some of them are increasingly becoming wary of that take for example malaysia which has which has pulled out of these belt and road initiative deals and these countries of course are looking towards other players that could
that could offset that development they're looking towards japan and of course they also want the united states to increase their commitment to this region economically and also in terms of the security. thank you very much for that. in moscow german economy minister picture of my is attending the opening of a new plant of timeless luxury car brand must say these russian president vladimir putin also joined russia's car market is growing again and german carmakers are all scrambling for a slice of the cake. dimer is hitting the gas with its easy reason rush out the model is being built in moscow in this brand new factory the german car maker has pumped over two hundred fifty million euros into it soon it will be cranking out s.u.v.s as well after years in the dumps the russian car market is growing again. at a system of course this is the fifth largest market in europe so german companies
are acting consistently by investing here and building up production sites. dimer wants to profit from russia's dynamic auto market around one point eight million new vehicles were sold here in twenty eighteen and sales are speeding up. opel is also trying to get back on the russian road it left three years ago but now wants to return it's looking to open around twenty dealerships the investment climate has improved despite the fact that the country has been slapped with wide ranging u.s. sanctions. the u.s. sanctions are counterproductive because they create uncertainty in the market and aren't specific enough pretty much any company can be affected by them. and so on the. v.w. is investing in the russian market for the long term with sites like this factory in kaluga engines made here will go into models manufactured mostly in the czech republic and spain things are less positive it forward it's looking to scale back
its russian production dramatically the u.s. based company has been a loser in the price wars. gladness should have civil of sorts made a mistake was its pricing policy russians were used to cheap ford cars that they could afford then ford raised prices very quickly. that are not as damaging a move in the luxury segment perhaps b.m.w. customers are always more willing to splash out but especially in russia. it was remarked the russian market has potential we increased sales by twenty percent last year and see room for growth with new models fueling demand more and more dollar and german carmakers are only too eager to keep the customers satisfied. tourists flock to the seychelles archipelago to enjoy the island nations beautiful beaches and the clean water of the indian ocean with environmental problems rising all the local government is taking steps to ensure everything stays as pristine as
it is today but also for tourism spells trouble for the country's second biggest industry. it looks like paradise but working here gets harder every day these fisherman in the seychelles are at first snapper and grouper but most days they come back with that the back into full catches they were once used to. when i first started fishing we literally. come to boil. one one thousand kilograms of fish. sometimes. one point. but. very difficult. to get one thousand kilograms. there are now fewer fish in the sea and to ensure its future of the indian ocean nation implemented a plan for a blue economy blue as the ocean that brings interest from around the world and
money tourism is the biggest industry in the seychelles but fishing is a close second fish are practically the only exports now the blue economy stricter fishing quotas are threatening the fishermans livelihood. i fear this will be a dying industry in seychelles if the same trend continues i mean we're no longer attracting youths we're no longer trucking professionals so. we are being condemned to feel to make way for others to make way for fish farmers to make way for fish farms to make way for. the government to staying on course despite the fishermans worries the goal is to protect the so-called ocean economy valued at one point five trillion dollars globally are expected to double by twenty thirty such rapid growth brings up questions. how do we have
a call growth how do we harvest the goodness which isn't already without harming it how do you make sure we regenerate we want blue economy to give our sustainable oceans which will benefit us but also benefit our world to complex. as there are no easy solutions the plan for a blue economy pits the country's largest against a second largest industry. south korea is getting ready to turn on its five g. network the highest bidder quality will go live across the country's three mobile providers on friday some business customers have been able to use south korea's five g. since december from friday it'll be open to anyone in the same day some song will release the first five g. phone in the world as the galaxy s ten five chip. foreman is.
