S. Taking a knee during the National Anthem, gutless commissioner Rodger Goodell risking ratings, sponsorships and Merchandise Sales by letting the leftist madness conditions continues, our top story, special coi counsel announcing t indictments sept the investigation began. Paul manafort and rick gates with 12 counts, including Money Laundering, conspiracy, related to their work for a foreign company. And separate case, former trump Foreign Policy advisory or 30year old george po papadopoulos pleading guilty. Any react . A few hours after former Trump Campaign chair Paul Manafort surrendered to fbi, he and rick gates appeared before magistrate judge robinson in Federal District court when they pleaded not guilty to 12 counts of financial crimes, the indictment alleged that while lobbies for ukrain ukrainian ins from 20062016 they laundered 78 Million Dollars from offshore companies and back accounts. President donald trump was correct. There is no evidence that mr. Manafort or Trump Campaign colluded with the russian government. The second thing about this indictment, i find ridiculous, is claim that maintaining offshore accounts to bring all your funds into the United States as a scheme to conceal, from United States government is ridiculous. Reporter manafort was released on 10 million bond, and gates 5 million. Analyst noted that charges are unrelated to russian collusion anel thaangle. What special prosecutor is likely putting pressure on someone he feels like was at center of this relationship with russia. And used criminal charges as a way to get cooperation from manafort. Reporter mueller unsealed a guilty plea entered 3 weeks ago by george papadopoulos. Questioning by fbi agents one week after inauguration, papadopoulos lied about timing and circumstances under when he made contact with various foreign nationals last year. A junior official, how much closer that bring its to White House Department depends on wha. Reporter papadopoulos signed a summary of events stating that russians have dirt on her, of Hillary Clinton eemails on clinton, documentings indicate Trump Campaign rebuffed this effort working through papadopoulos to set up a meeting with the candidate himself, unnamed Senior Campaign official of the quoted in summary as having emailed a su summary. President is in his best interest, my view to ensure mueller can wrap this investigation up quickly. More this gets dragged out, more you see people connected to campaign, being brought in for questioning under oath. Reporter source who spoke with manafort twice saturday said, as late as saturday evening he still did not believe he was going to be indicted. And his associate rick gates, he appeared at arraignment with a public defender because mr. Gates are not given enough advance warning of his own indictment to appear with his own attorney. Fox news. Lou joining with us reaction to the manafort indictment, ed rollins, chairman of Great America pack. And ed, your reacted first to manafort and gates charges. You know, my sense is, i have known paul for a long time, he worked for me in 1984, a very effective type delicate county, i did that for jic bake jim bake has played big time politics. Representing a lot of foreign clients, i dont think this has anything to do with collusion or with donald trump dealing unfair. I am not shocked by it i heard these stories for a long time. At the end of the day, i dont think he will make a case against donald trump. Lou it seems like a very easy case to either dismiss or befound guilty, that is, if he paid taxes on 75 million, there is no effort to launder money. This is a case that could have been handled by u. S. Attorney in different river of columbia. District of columbia, at the end of the day it certainly will be a big distractiontion. And told a different way, a big week for president , his tax plan and end of week nation a new federal reserve, my argument would be, if he is lies ending listening go on with our business, this is about manafort not you. Lou president has been subjected to so much antagonism attacks and out right since he took the oabl oldsmobile oatf office. There it is, to george papa dop papadopoulos. He has a masters from London School of economics, he was a volunteer to Trump Campaign. Before that carson campaign, and no one knew who he was. I think that sometimes in a campaign, people come in try to become more important than they are. Lou not in politics. No one knows this person in Foreign Policy community. I think to a certain extent he was being bra va bravado to fbis so they got him on perjury. Lou you have to ask yourself, why would a young person any person, but why would a your yog person even think of lying, i would think they would be scared stiff. They should be. Lou to the fbi are you kidding me. That is what you have to worry about with these investigations, a perjury charge, i think he is now being used, i dont think he was a big player. Lou part of the deal. Ed rollins thank you, ed will be back looking over surveying all of the days evens here. Joining me now, former u. S. Ambassador to United Nations, fox news contributor, john bolton. Good to be with you. Lou these three indictments, two were expected, one of them, Paul Manafort, and his associate rick gates. Like ed, i have known paul for many years. Going back before the reagan administration, it was my impression he represented foreign clients trying to dot hisis and cross his tses, there are a lots of charges, a number of allegations, that he had bank account x and did not file required foreign bank acoin report, and did not indicate on his income tax return. Those are things that did or did not happen, they are not questions of interpretation, well see how his attorneys handle it, you put that together, there is nothing in the indictment i can see about representing ukrainian political interests that anyone didnt know about in 2016, when we came on to Trump Campaign, did they get manafort on what i think is looks like a unrelated change, it may be yes or no, but the question is, can it force manafort to flip against trump, that would require that manafort know anything about illicit Trump Campaign activity with the russians ashes to, which as of this point, there not a sensitiv sense til sense scintilla of. There is no crime in collusion. We are brought to mr. Papadopoulos, i dont wish anyone ill, really, but i remember when the trump kanl paicampaignrolled out list of pn policy advise oar advisers, he d by press, he list z being in a modeled United Nations program. Now you cannot have it both ways, either, he was essentially just somebody they found on a street corner, which is their view then. Or he is a central adviser in trump camp pai campaign. Which is their view today, they cannot be view. Lou no way was i mocking him pointing out his lack of experience, and a volunteer, only once been in the same room with the president ial candidate. This is a sad showing. To the part of special counsel. There does not appear to be anything new. In case of manafort and gates, appear to be any connection to russia collusion and President Trump. This is stunning stuff. They have this minnow they brought up in a very big expensive net that of special counsel who it is unimagineble he would know anything at all. There is press reporting that pappapadopoulos wore a wire fori for months, well see. Let me say, since i worked for eed meese at Justice Department, i have been appalled at concept of independent counsel then post watergate statute now done by Justice Department regulation, these are extra constitutional offices, they are not restrained, nobody is super advising them for fear of being accused of political interference, they can do anything they want. That in itself is an abuse of justice, whether the target is donald trump or Hillary Clinton. Lou think of this. All of this could have been stopped. By the Senate Majority leader, the speaker of the house, heads of those two intelligence committees in jurisdiction judiciary committee, here we are with a attorney general recused and Justice Department overwhelmed by a fellow who was a mere fbi director, where are we headed . I think a lot of this could have been avoided if james comb he been fired on january 20, of this year, that is what should have happened. I do believe that the russians tried to interfere in the campaign, they have been doing it for 70 years or more. So, i am not embarrassed or ashamed at wanting to find out what the truth is there. And that is why we have intelligence agentses to tell us what is going on. Why we have oversight committees in house and senate, instead, all blocked up. You know with the pursuing investigation. I think those committees are laughingstocks, i do. And the agencies ineffective. If they did not have wit, knowledge, and understanding. They mean to understand what were doing in our elections would not find discomforting us anyway possible. It is a is a the stupidity is. S those who are happy me is going after donald trump today better watch what they say. The next itration o reitration a independent counsel will be going after one of their friends. Lou this that boomeranged, and head forward Democratic Party, Democratic National committee, obama administration, Clinton Campaign, on the list goes, today. Tony podesta leaving firm of his own name. Well see how far this goes, it has begun to reach into the swamp. Ambassador john bolton. Thank you, lou. Lou were coming right back, much more ahead, and nearly every iota that will be fascinating. Stay with us. White house spent much of the day setting record state on special counsel indictment of paul mana mort. Manafort. Today announcement has nothing to do with president , president s campaign or campaign activities, everything to do with Clinton Campaign, and gps and russia. Lou we take that up with tony shaffer here next. Nfl players continue to insult our anthem, flag and country. Their awful bema behavior has consequences, six in the morning.

Lou high power lobbiest tony podesta stepping down from the firm that has his name, announcing the resignation. One of several company paid to do work for a ukrainian organization, tied to Paul Manafort as well. He is brother of john podesta, brother of the Campaign Manager of Clinton Campaign, it is still a swamp. Trump fabricated dossier, payments began in spring 2016 around same time Democratic National committee and Clinton Campaign ordered that very same law firm to retain fusion gps. A coincidence . Possibly. Fusion gps has been linked to russia and target of a number of congressional investigations. Joining me now, retired Army Lieutenant colonel tony shaffer, now senior fellow at London Center for policy research. We go to the payment fusion gps roll of obama, clinton and dnc. This is not like a swamp this is more like a 1970s porno film hot tub, that how is bad this is. I am sorry it true. Lets look at how this is unraveling. And lou can we just leave it with swamp. All right, were talking about, not to put too 5 fine a point is espionage. By clintons opening this pandoras box looking to encourage finding of dirt they allow a foreign intelligence service, the russians to do what they do, fed fall, misleading and made up information about the president to this channel. Channel. It appears that fbi, among the agents, may have played a role in nationaly funding the dossier. Precisely. Lou we have a situation in which agencies it should be aware of meddling or whatever expression, interfering with, our election should have been aware and taken acted. Right. Lou we know that president of United States, at that time, one barack obama, did absolutely nothing when he was informed that the russians were meddling in our election. Y ho he knew, lou, think at it he knew, why el would he not act when h when he knew there ws something going on. Lou this is he did not want to interfere with those meddling. Precisely. Lou what does that draw to in way of conclusion. To fact that i believe he was aware as well as other members of Intelligence Community and fbi, that something is going on, my theory is that thise dossier with everything el regarding russia collusion was meant to be heart in a defeated donald trump, they were counting on trump being beaten, they wanted him to be dead. We had not known this if Hillary Clinton had not come in put her people in department of justice. Hard enough to get them to awaken and find a level of commitment to actually getting something done in the way of an investigation of all of this. Where do the facts lead them . Not to president to the need to investigate the clinton. Right. Lou pay for play foundation, clinton foundation, and all of the activities of secretary of state and results of what looks to be quid pro quo whether uaintiuu uranium one, the list goes on. Yes, sir. Lou to manafort charges there is aing is tha suggestion that manafort may have been wearing a wire. The likelihood is that he was being at least surveilled excuse me papadopoulos was being surveilled and wore a wire. Where does this go . If they had something from it, you would have expected them to have had an indictment. It would have been first if it was geesy i juicy it woule leaked out before now. Like friday. Friday, that that is my point. What does it say about justice if man in charge of investigation is actually doing thins to break the law in a way to shape Public Opinion breyer tprior to the fact, that leak of grand jury information justifies removal of mueller, whether he knew it or not, he is captain of the ship. He needs to be mov moved out, bi dont think that there is anything there, they seem so desperate to get it out. Lou well see, tony shaver. Thank you, sir.
