Means unlike public companies, the books arent out there for the public to see. When federal prosecutors get someone to talk about them and grant them immunity, they can see all of it. Jeff toobin, thank you. We are staying all over this Breaking News. Allen weisselberg granted immunity to talk and testify in front of a federal grand jury. We continue our coverage with at this hour right now. This is cnn Breaking News. Hello. Im ryan nobles in today for kate bolduan. We begin with Breaking News. What could be a disastrous development for President Trump. Sources telling cnn that federal prosecutors have granted immunity to Allen Weisselberg, the longtime cfo for the Trump Organization and someone who has been with the company for decades. Kara is here to explain. This information just coming in. Explain to us what you are reporting. The Wall Street Journal is
Kate Bolduan gives a fresh take on todays top stories. Surpassed expectations for his survival. The progress of the disease and the advance of age render their verdict. With his usual strength of will, he has chosen to discontinue medical treatment. Our family is grateful for the support and kindness of his caregivers over the last year and the outpouring of concern and affection from johns friends and associates and the thousands of people who are keeping them in their prayers, god bless. Thank you all. Certainly, a significant statement about the future of john mccain, the future of his health. Notable, they note not only the aggressive form of cancer that he is suffering with but, of course, his age. Thats playing in. He has not been up here on capitol hill for quite some time. He is, of course, while he is receiving treatment, at his home in arizona, chimed in from the sidelines, potentially sometimes writing tweets. His office, of course sending
out statements to all the goings on. But it has not been some time which we have been seeing up here in the halls of congress, casting the vote one of his last votes that was decisive when he notably gave the thumbs down on the senate floor, casting the fate of that bill, certainly one of his last potential legacies up here on capitol hill. For the moment, many folks up here likely sending their support and love during, of course, what is an incredibly hard time for the family at this moment. No doubt. Thank you for that Breaking News that senator john mccain discontinuing treatment for an aggressive form of brain cancer. Lets bring in dana bash who covered senator mccain for some time. She has been tracking his prognosis. Your initial reaction to this news that senator mccain will no longer be receiving cancer treatment. Ryan, this is a moment everybody knew would come. But it doesnt make it any easier. John mccain, his m. O. Has been to be the fighter, and to not give up. This is everybody who has had a Family Member or friend or known who have had cancer, especially this kind of brain cancer that John Mccain Has, knows that this is just one that you cant beat. Even John Mccain Has known that. He has been home. His happy place, his cabin for quite some time. He has been with his family. He has been looking out at the birds and the creek that runs through that for months and months. Trying as much as he can to take in his what he knew, knows are his last months of life. The fact that he has chosen to
terminate treatment tells you a lot about how aggressive this is. The john mccain we have known and loved and covered for so long when i say love, i mean people who have covered him for a long time and have had his wrath and his jokes and All Of The Above and even those who are his political enemies have come to love him and love him for this reason. But he doesnt give up. You mention the fact that he made this decision to discontinue treatment says a lot about what the future has in store for senator mccain. A few months ago, he was still patrolling the halls of capitol hill with that vigor he has had throughout his career. He and his family have been coy about exactly what his prognosis was. They promised he was working to get back to his job here on capitol hill. What does it say from your perspective about how engaged he has been about the big issues of the day . He may not be here in president but his presence has been large. No question. He has weighed in, obviously, with the help of staff and his family around on him on big issues and has made an impact even from afar. Its not the same and has not been the same without john mccain to put it bluntly in the face of people. That is how he has been so successful as a politician, as a length l legislator. The fact that he is so aggressive with what he believes. It has been hard with him home. My understanding is that at least until somewhat recently, he was given a schedule every day as senators get, as you know covering congress. They get a schedule of what they are doing every day. He had a schedule to keep him in the groove of everyday life. But it got harder and harder as
he got sicker and sicker. Look, not only is the disease something that is beyond horrible, the treatment for the disease is also something that always takes a toll. He had really aggressive treatment for a while. As the statement from his family says, at his age and given the disease he has, that matters. Dana bash, thank you for weighing in. Stick close. We will come back to you in a moment. Lets go to David Challion who covered senator mccain for a while. David, your reaction to this news about the next stage of john mccains battle with cancer . Well, you know, inevitable moment in this terrible disease that we all wish was never going to happen and yet we all knew that we would get some indication that this is the
last year if indeed john mccains voice was a part of it . Time and again, somebody who ran his president ial campaign in 2008 under the slogan of Country First and having an entire sort of Life Body Of Work supporting that slogan, what he would have been speaking to over the course of the last year, it is impossible not to wonder. On a day like this where you read this statement, your heart immediately goes to his family that he has come to this decision to no longer receive medical care. To your point, even though we havent necessarily heard john mccains voice, he has made it known through statements, still weighing in on some of the biggest issues of the day, despite battling this aggressive form of cancer, not left the political arena. We want to read for you a tweet from megan mccain, his daughter, who has been public about her fathers struggles
with cancer. She has been forced to be a spokesperson on behalf of john mccain when he has been attacked by President Trump and others. My family is deeply appreciative of all the love and generosity you have shown us during this past year. Thank you for all your continued support and prayers. We could not have made it this far without you. You have given us the strength to carry on. Now we will go to wolf blitzer, a man who covered john mccain for a very extensive part of his career. Wolf, you have obviously probably knew this news was coming at some point. It probably still has to come as a shock to hear someone like john mccain say he is stepping back from a fight like this. He has been a fighter his whole life. I have known him for at least 30 years. Have interviewed him so many times, spent a lot of quality time with him over the years. Simply, a great american, a great patriot, a wonderful
politician. Someone who is clearly a conservative republican but always ready to work with democrats on specific issues, especially National Security issues. Someone who is willing to spend an enormous amount of time learning about all of these issues. I watched him up close during many very sensitive moments, especially when he was running for president of the United States. He was always a gentleman. He was a maverick. He was someone who didnt necessarily always go along with the establishment. But he was someone who was so committed to doing the right thing for our country that his voice this past year occasionally, he would tweet, he would issue a statement, he would say something. But it was so, so missed here in washington. As you know, he is the chairman of the Senate Armed Services committee. He believes in the military, the u. S. Military. He was a p. O. W. For more than five years. Its a sad moment. I think we can all rejoice in
remembering those wonderful times all of us had covering him, knowing him and seeing him in action. No doubt about that. Of course, the last Defense Authorization bill just passed by congress has senator john mccains name attached to it. Wolf blitzer, thank you for your perspective. Coming up, our other Breaking News. Federal prosecutors have now granted immunity to Allen Weisselberg, the longtime chief Financial Officer of the Trump Organization, and someone who has been with the company for decades. More on this Breaking News and much more. Stay here. You are watching cnn. Ont want Something Like meningitis b getting in their way. Meningococcal group b disease, or meningitis b, is real.

Immunity to Allen Weisselberg, longtime chief Financial Officer for the Trump Organization and someone who has been with the company for decades. We are going to go to our panel now. We will talk about this Breaking News. Joining me, an astute group of individuals who know about this case. Shan wu, iesha rasco and michael zeldon. We got into this before we had the Breaking News about senator mccain, but lets recap this. What does it mean for someone in the role of Allen Weisselberg, who has immense knowledge of the Trump Organization and President Trump himself to cut an Immunity Deal like this . Whats most important is for us to learn when the Immunity Deal was offered and as to what it pertained. If it was offered before the cohen plea and it was only to gather the information necessary to secure cohens plea and perspective cooperation, then its pretty ring fenced. If it was more recently granted or its ongoing and it relates to the broader Trump Organization, its financial dealings and the Trump Foundation under inquarrkwainqu just dont know where its going to go. Theres a chance that his cooperation with the federal government is over with. With a specific goal of this Michael Cohen indict money amen conviction. When you decide to cooperation, its never really over. They can always come back to you. Michael is right, the timing is critical. It sounds like both pecker as
well as wieseisselberg it sos like its likely that those arrangements were done quite a while earlier. That may have caused cohen to have to plea because the walls closed in on him. Game of musical chairs. He was the last guy left standing. In terms of the continuing information, once you go down this road of cooperating, you have to keep going with it. For all we know, they have gotten other information that hasnt been public yet. Lets go over this. First Michael Cohen known as the president s fixer. One of the most loyal deputies of President Trump. He flips. David pecker, national enquirer, he has taken an Immunity Deal, presumably also to flip. Now Allen Weisselberg, who is mentioned on that secret tape that Michael Cohen took of President Trump talking about the payments. What must be going through the mind of President Trump right now to see three of these people who he thought were loyal to him now turning and cooperating with the government . I certainly cant guess whats in President Trumps mind. He cant be happy to have all of these people who he was very close with these were very Close Associates and people that worked for him for years. To have this happen, he cant be happy with it. I always think when things like this happen, its almost theres the question of what actually took place and then theres, what is going to be President Trumps response . Because that can be very important as well. It might not the significance of weisselberg cooperating, thats one thing. But the question is, how does President Trump response . Does he do anything extreme . His tact up until this point has been to try and to essentially rewrite history with some of the relationships. He suggested Paul Manafort was not involved in the campaign when he served as campaign chairman. Michael cohen was a Junior Lawyer on his staff and never dealt with big deals. Is it more difficult to continue to distance himself from these people that were in his orbit . When you have the cfo he worked for the Trump Organization for decades. Its going to be hard to disassociate himself from him. I wonder how much of this for President Trump is a political argument versus a legal argument. It seems le s clear the Special Counsel will not try to indict a sitting president. Does this come back to whether the congress can get the support of the American People to move forward with something as dramatic as impeachment . We have a couple of things going on. We have a State Prosecution or a state of new york investigation of the Trump Foundation and related matters. We have the Southern District of new york investigating cohen. Then we have mueller investigating the collusion and related matters. Only mueller has an obligation to file a report on his findings with the Deputy Attorney
general. Its a confidential report. But the Deputy Attorney general can release it. Thats really the political aspect of this. The Southern District of new york and the new york state prosecutors, theyre going to indict or not indict. Theyre not going to issue any report. As things drip out, as more people get implicated in criminal behavior, then perhaps its an Inflection Point with the trump supporters. We saw on reporting earlier that they said these spoupporters said if he begins pardoning people, that might change our point of view. If we see evidence of collusion. If we see additional indictments of people who surround trump, that may change our point of view. Thats how it plays out in some respects mr s politically. We have to go. Thank you for your expertise. Back to our other big Breaking News from today. John mccain, the onetime republic republican nominee for president , he is discontinuing treatment. Cindy mccain tweeting, i love my husband with all my heart. God bless everyone who cared for my husband along this journey. Joining us now, dr. Sanjay gupta for more on the next stage for senator mccain. Sanjay, just essentially from a medical perspective, explain what this means for senator mccain that he decided to forgo further treatment for his aggressive form of brain cancer. Well, its obviously its tough news. We know that he has been dealing with this since last summer, since july of last year. He had an operation at that time. He has been undergoing therapy. Typically, thats chemotherapy and radiation. It can be tough. It can be very hard to go through this therapy. The goal is to try and combat
the cancer cells in the brain. What it sounds like has happened is that at some point always you are making a risk benefit analysis. How much benefit am i getting for this given the toll that this therapy is taking on my body . It sounds like where he says, the risk is no longer outweighing the benefit. Its tough. Its a tough thing, this type of tumor, as you know, as a lot of people who have been following senator mccains story know, the average survival is 14 months. Right now we had 13 months since he was diagnosed. We saw vicepresident bidens son go through it. He was a younger man. The family said the age was part of the Decision Making process. Explain you touched on it a little bit how vigorous the
treatment is and how difficult it is on the body. This type of tumor is a gdm. Its an aggressive form of brain cancer. Its a cancer that forms within the brain itself as opposed to spreading from somewhere else in the body to the brain. The type of treatment typically, as was the case with senator mccain, he had an Operation First to remove this what they thought was a blood collection. During that operation, they found this was a brain tumor. Then after that, the types of treatments that are what are called conventional treatments are usually a combination of chemotherapy, which is a medication thats given into the body basically chemicals that try to kill the tumor cells and radiation directly to the brain. A lot of people are familiar with these types of therapies. Theyhe body. It has a toxic affect on other parts of the body. Its hard. He is tough as nails as everyone knows about senator mccain. But his age probably does play a role here as well. You may remember going back before beau biden was ted kennedy. He was younger than senator mccain, but sort of went through the same thing. Survived and had 14 months of survival after his diagnosis. The next stage is some form of hospice care. What would that entail . Just doing everything they can to make him comfortable . Yeah. I dont know what stage given he has made this decision that the risks and the toll of the therapy are really no longer outweighing the benefits, i dont know that doesnt necessarily mean he is at the stage of hospice care. This could be a Decision Point he has made at this point, not
indicating Something Like he needs to be this hospice or whether thats home hospice or Something Like that. Yes, to your question, at that stage, when it happens or if it happened, its about providing comfort. That can take all sorts of different that can mean all sorts of different things. It may be within the home. It may involve things around pain control. It may involve just making sure that he is comfortable in all sorts of ways. Again, im going to be careful. I dont know that thats the stage where he is. Just because this decision has been made probably in conjunction with his doctors, obviously his family, i think we just dont know if he is at that stage yet. Dr. Sanjay gupta, thank you for putting that in perspective for us. More after this quick break. You are watching cnn. When you start sleeping on a tempurpedic, the difference you feel is night.

Our Breaking News, federal prosecutors have granted immunity to Allen Weisselberg, the longtime chief Financial Officer for the Trump Organization and someone who has been with the company for decades. He is the latest member of trumps Inner Circumstanle to cooperate with prosecutors. David jolly joins us now to discuss this topic and many others. Congressman, thank are im sorry. We will discuss this now with congressman jolly. Can you hear me . Good to be with you. Sorry about that. No problem. The reason we had you on today was because of the tweet that you posted this week about impeachment. I wonder now with the news that yet another member of the trump inner circle has cut a deal with federal prosecutors, if that continues to emphasize or to reinforce your position on this. Explain why you decided its come to that point for lawmakers. Look, i thinks Impeachment Inquiry is becoming inevitable. Its important that elected officials acknowledge that on both sides of the aisle and speak openly about it. Here is why. We know now that the president both lied about as well as admitted to participating with Michael Cohen in an activity that a Federal Court has just entered into judgement as a
behavior is a crime. This is different than the john edwards scenario. What happened in Michael Cohens plea deal is a federal judge accepted his plea to Criminal Activity. Its Criminal Activity not only that cohen alleged was also tied to the president but that the president , within 24 hours went on the news and said, yes, i did participate in this. The president likes to say its not a crime. But a judge just did. If thats not enough to open an know whats its going to take unless we see his loyalists drop and turn on him. Many of your republican colleagues disagree. Even Many Democrats do as well. The current Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi has warned her democratic colleagues about taking this step. Obviously, theres a political calculation involved here. At what point does this conversation need to become real for lawmakers . Look, i think its purely a political calculation. I think dccc is looking at poll
numbers. They have recognized its easier to speak against corruption going into november than specifically about impeachment. When you talk specifically about impeachment, you do have to justify it. Corruption is an easier message. I would say, this is a moment where democrats need to be stand and be counted, if you will. As Democratic Senators are currently saying that the president is too compromised to nominate a Supreme Court justice and therefore the kavanaugh should be delayed, how you can make that argument and not also suggest he is so compromised we should be open to talking about the initiation of an Impeachment Inquiry . Lets say democrats are able to win back the house in the fall. In order for the president to be removed from office, even if he is impeached would require conviction in the senate. The map does not welcome as favorable for democrats on that side. Its going to take republicans standing up with a voice similar to yours if this is possible. Frankly, sir, there arent a lot
of republicans who are saying the same things that you are. Even if privately they may have concerns about President Trump. I was on capitol hill during the bill clinton impeachment. There are a lot of parallels here. Should democrats take the house, i believe they will open inqui inquiry. To your point, i dont believe the votes are in the senate. We are talking about six months from now. The reality is, Michael Flynns sentencing has been delayed because he is continuing to coopera cooperate. Trumps cfo is cooperating. Michael cohen, his loyalists are beginning to turn on him. I believe trump is going to fire jeff sessions. The walls will begin to crack within the Republican Caucus and the senate. We will see how this plays out. The first step in this i do believe congress, republicans wont do it but democrats should be honest about it and say, its time to open an
inqui inquiry. You mention poll numbers. One of the reasons democrats seem reluctant, to a certain extent its important to listen to the voice of their constituents. I was in ohio a couple of weeks ago for the special election there. I talked to a lot of voters. They did not seem that focused on the Russia Investigation. Where is the balance here . The voters should have a say in this, right . I love that question. Here is consider. You are right, the Russia Investigation is probably not going to be mentioned in this race. The cohen matter is very different. This is a president who has lied and been implicated in a crime. One of my colleagues in congress, a very good friend taught me that in politics, you are either a leading indicator or a lagging indicator. Too often the majority of politicians follow the polls because to your point, there is merit in following where the voters currently are. There are few people on a day where we talk about john mccain, he is one of them, who are willing to stand up and be a leading indicator and say to voters, i believe this is where
we need to go. Im asking you to follow me. I want to see voices begin to say, its time we talk about impeachment. Im asking you to come with me. I think there are enough American People that even in november, would say im with you on that. Let me ask you about senator mccain. Back in may, you called him a remarkable american hero, a man who your party should emulate. What are your thoughts about him right now . This is someone you served with in congress. You must have a heavy heart right now. I do. In a town too often filled with cowardice, this was a man with courage. He was the real deal. Its important that we recognize his leadership, whether you agreed with him or not. This is someone who spoke to his own convictions, not to the politics of convenience. He will likely forever be remembered for that visual of the thumbs down on the obamacare repeal, having been the former nominee of the Republican Party. I also think not to take anything away from john mccain
on this day, but we have to recognize that his candidacy was a Departure Point for the Republican Party where they chose to go a different way. They chose to double down on a hard line sarah palin conservative that later embraced donald trump. The party has gone a different direction. Its a sad decision the party made. Its a sad day for the country. Certainly, a sorrowful day for the mccain family. We all wish him gods blessings. Congressman jolly, we appreciate you responding to some of the Breaking News stories. We appreciate your perspective. Thank you for joining us. Good to be with you. The top leaders in the United States senate now reacting to the news of senator john mccain deciding not to continue his treatment for brain cancer. We will have that when we come back.

Lets bring in Cnns Barbara Starr from the pentagon. Obviously youve covered senator mccains career very closely from your perch at the pentagon. Hes one of the leading voices when it comes to National Security and defense. Barbara, just your initial thoughts about this news that senator mccain will no longer seek treatment for his brain cancer. Well, good morning, ryan. What i can tell you is ive been out in the Pentagon Hallways talking to people, and already this morning the pentagon, the u. S. Military really has tears in its eyes. You cannot talk to anybody here about senator mccain this morning without their voice catching, without them sort of looking down, not wanting to show but also wanting to show that the emotion they feel about this man. For the u. S. Military, this is not about politics. No one here is going to talk
about politics and john mccain. They are going to talk about what they consider this is military Family Business this morning, on this journey with this difficult news for the mccain family. The u. S. Military quietly making it clear that full military honors will be rendered to senator mccain at every step on this journey. One Military Officer telling me this is a huge loss for the u. S. Navy and for the u. S. Military. Senator mccain, no stronger advocate over the decades for the trooper in the field. But it is his service in vietnam that everybody remembers. You know, shot down october 26th, 1967, serving more than five years in a North Vietnamese p. O. W. Camp, tortured and in pain. The u. S. Military doesnt like to talk about pain. Pain of the wounded, pain of dying on the battlefield, pain of being a p. O. W. Under torture. It makes everybody uncomfortable. But senator mccain was one of
those men who served in that very dark place so many years ago. You cannot get around it. This is a man who survived torture, as did other p. O. W. S and got on with his life and continued to serve his country. He stayed in touch with other p. O. W. S. These were men that grew old together, and this morning all of them who are still with us very much, i know, wishing senator mccain the best on this journey. The u. S. Military watching all of this very closely, very sad, determined that senator mccain will be honored by this country. Ryan . No doubt, barbara. Even right up until the end hes been fighting on behalf of the military. This latest Spending Bill includes a military spending increase. Many people thinking about senator mccain at the pentagon. Barbara, thank you for that report. Also, the House Speaker paul ryan tweeting, john mccain personifies service to our
country. The whole house is keeping john and his family in our prayers during this time. Coming up, our other Breaking News.

Were getting some new details on the Breaking News that federal prosecutors have now granted immunity to Allen Weisselberg, the longtime chief Financial Officer for the Trump Organization and someone whos been with the company for decades. Cnn is all over this story. We have new information. Kara, what can you tell us . Evan perez and i have been told by sources that Allen Weisselberg was granted immunity for his testimony by the u. S. Attorneys office in manhattan whos investigating Michael Cohen. We understand he was interviewed weeks ago, questioned about the payments made by Michael Cohen, reimbursed by the president. Hes not been called back since. The u. S. Attorneys office has given weisselberg immunity. They discussed with him these payments to Michael Cohen. All right, kara. Thank you for that. Joining me now, Defense Attorney and former federal prosecutor shan wu. Just quickly, it seems from what kara is reporting that this seems to be a pretty narrow scope that Allen Weisselberg is involved in. There is. Theres a question as to when he was granted the immunity. We can safely assume theres been a lot of interviewing thats already gone on. So we dont know the full scope of what he may have given already to the prosecutors. I think importantly, too, we hear so much talk about trumps strategy being all political, geared towards Public Opinion and impeachment. Hes got to remember the legal strategy matters. If he ends up on trial in the senate, its not going to be like a Campaign Rally in pennsylvania. The legal strategy, his credibility, all that is going to matter. Right now his team is in disarray in terms of the strategy. And does it mean that if Allen Weisselberg has already agreed to cooperate on some level, even if he hasnt called back, that doesnt mean he couldnt be called back in the future, right . Absolutely. Cooperation is like a pregnancy. You cant be just a little bit pregnant. Youre all in. Thats right. All right. Shan wu, thank you for joining me. I appreciate it. Thank you for joining me today. A lot of busy Breaking News today, as always. I appreciate you tuning in. Were going to go to Inside Politics with niamalika henderson. That starts in just a minute
