He is not backing down. Instead, Rudy Giuliani is doubling down. Going on fox news to say President Trump did not make any Campaign Finance laws by gafg payment to Stormy Daniels. Did you misspeak or did people not interpret what you were saying . Were you talking about the fact or the law . Ill talking about the law and the conclusion. The facts, the facts, i, i, im still learning. Im not than expert on the facts yet. Im getting there but i am an expert on the law and particularly the Campaign Finance law and i lived under it with the president. The fact are there is no Campaign Finance violation of any kind nor was it alone. It was an expenditure. It would have been made whether he was running or president or wasnt running for president. Hours later, live from new york, Stormy Daniels kind of going after the president there. The adult film actress shows up on saturday night live and tells alec baldwins trump she will not stop until he rye signs. Back in the real white house drama. The drama we know continues. You heard giuliani say that on fox news there is an expert on Campaign Finance law. Well, that did not stop him from talking about the other burning question for the white house this week, what to do on the iran deal. Here he is at the iran freedom convention. Listen to this. We got a president who is tough, a president who doesnt listen to the people who are nay sayers and a president as committed to regime change as we are. And with secretary of state pompeo now on his right hand and his National Security adviser john bolton, you remember john bolton . On his left side. What do you think is going to happen to that agreement . That Nuclear Agreement . Joining us live from washington, sarah westwood, cnn white house reporter. Hi, sarah. How are you . Hi. Good morning. What is your take on everything we are seeing here . It sounded like Rudy Giuliani sounded an awful lot like President Trump when we heard from President Trump on friday. Rudy giuliani has spent the last few days clarifying the bombshell comments he made on fox he made to his reimburse to cohen that he gave to Stormy Daniels before the 2016 in exchange for err her silent about an alleged affair. It has been causing headaches in the white house at a time when the president is preparing to face down a number of consequential Foreign Policy issues including the deadline this week to decide on the Iran Nuclear Deal. Giuliani has gone more than anybody in what the president will do with the Iran Nuclear Deal and later he had this to say when cleaned up those remarks. Its different thing when he is president of the United States and i dont mix my role with him with the Foreign Policy. You know what my desire is. But i cant give you a prediction because i, you know, i represent the president and i cant i certainly cant speak for him. Bolton maybe or pompeo can speak for him but i cant. Reporter now sources tell cnn that giuliani is not consulting with senior staffers before making these public statements about the president s legal predicament and now giuliani is wading into the Foreign Policy territory may escalate tensions even further between giuliani and the rest of the white house. We will be watching. Sarah westwood, good to see you. Thank you. Thank you. Doijoining me is daniel lipm and Kelly Jane Torrance. Good morning to both of you. Good morning. Kelly jane, lets start with what is Rudy Giulianis Job Description . He is opining on the future of the iran deal. On thursday, he said that the detainees in north korea would be released later in the day. They werent. He is also going out and, of course, defending the president on this Stormy Daniels situation. He is all over the map, it appears. He is. I have to say, i think, victor, that Rudy Giuliani might have the hardest job in washington, except maybe for the president. But, by the way, i was at the conference that he spoke at yesterday and i chatted with him afterwards as well. He at t brought up north korea, the three americans imprisoned in north korea and brought it up again yesterday. He said straight up, they are going to be released very soon because of President Trump. But what is his Job Description . A good question. I think that the president has really, despite the fact President Trump has attacked Robert Mueller and others on twitter he basically has been reactive and giving his comments on defense and i think with Rudy Giuliani, he is going on offense and giuliani, no, he is not talking to other staffers. He is going out. Lets face it. If he if he wasnt supposed to be doing this, he would probably be criticized by his boss on twitter and hes is not. You know, i chatted with rudy yesterday and he was in great spirits, great form. He did not sound like someone who had been dressed down by the president for his bold statements. So, daniel, while we have Rudy Giuliani last night on fox news trying to do a cleanup job or clarification job, on nbc, there was someone else who is part of the saga. Lets watch that. Just tell me what do you need for this to all go away . A resignation. Yeah, right. Being president is like doing porn. What you do, its hard to do anything else. That juxtaposition, youve got the president and his attorneys fumbling over their story on one side and, on the other, youve got Stormy Daniels always, you know, in front of a camera here. You also have Michael Avenatti who has done a number of Television Hits and he was the talk of the town in washington last weekend when he was making the rounds at White House Correspondent weekend parties. And he was the most popular guy there. Because he has this amazing client that everyone is talking about. And so i think its interesting that in any other normal world, you would not have the lawyers be fighting their case on television and on twitter. And i think rudys comments this week to fox news to sean hannity, they are going to be used in any potential interview with the president that mueller does where he says, well, you know, your attorney Rudy Giuliani said this. That you knew about the payments right after. How do you square that . Did you know that . So that could put the president in a tougher situation legally if he has to answer those questions. Guys, in the control room, im doing a bit of producing from the desk here. Do we have sound bite we can get together pretty quickly . Anybody in the control room . Okay. So lets listen here to the comparison of what President Trump said on friday and then what we heard from Rudy Giuliani on saturday and see if you can hear any similarities here. Hell get his facts straight. The facts . Im still learning. He started yesterday. Ive been in the case for two weeks. Virtually one day in comparison to other people. There was no collusion with the russians. Is there no evidence of collusion with the russians. There was no object instruction. Is there no evidence of obstruction of justice. What they should do is look at the other side where terribly bad things have happened. Poor little hillary. We have to be nice to her. We have no no under oath. We will take that no. No under oath. No q a. Just notes. He knows its a witchhunt. The judge in sum and substance said this is a witch hunt. It looks like Rudy Giuliani has gotten hi his talking points and the president has gotten him in line pretty quickly here. What do you think, kelly jane . Yes. That interview was made very last minute. I was talking to rudy yesterday and he thought the next time he was going to be talking to reporters was on abc talking to George Stephanopoulos today. We know judge jeannine is very close to President Trump. So i think the idea was lets get somebody very friendly who will do an interview and let rudy get the talking points out that he was supposed to get out and i think that is what we saw. And everyone is always talking about when anyone from the administration goes on tv, who are they talking to . The American People . Or President Trump . And i do think maybe part of that was rudy talking to President Trump. But the people watching that interview were also very sympathetic and i think that rudy was playing to that audience and he did a good job of playing to that audience, you know . I have to say when you have to talk about im not good on the facts, im not sure that is something is that a talking point you really want to get out . Im a little surprised. Yeah. It is surprising but he will have another shot today. He on at least one of sunday shows. Daniel lippman, the first question goes to you next time. Stay with us. A lot more to you take about this hour. Trumps close friend and is is on special counsels radar. A source tells cnn tom baric was interviewed by the mueller team in december and was asked about his relationship with Paul Manafort and rick gates. Had hired gates for the inauguration. They made it clear that he was not a target of that probe. As President Trumps legal battles in the Stormy Daniel case seem to be evolving here and continuing, his newly hired attorney Rudy Giuliani some think is adding to the chaos. Congressman adam schiff is joining jake tarp tapper this morning on state of the union at 9 00 a. M. On cnn. Volume is spewing rocks and lava in the air in hawaii. Five homes have been destroyed.

Com clear she wants a platform. Tomorrow she is expected to narrow her focus on what she plans to do for kids. Kate bennett is joining us from washington with the latest. What have you heard we will hear from her tomorrow . Reporter this is sort of a big day for the first lady tomorrow and she will announce this in the rose garden, a place she has never given a speech before and unveiling her actual official formal first lady platform and something we have been waiting on for quite sometime. In terms of timing, Michelle Obama announced her lets move initiative in february of 2010, so mrs. Trump is about three months or so behind mrs. Obama. Laura bush, of course, announced her subject of literacy in july of first year as first lady. I think we will discuss something more about her helping children and wanting to look out for the wellbeing of kids and all things she is focusing on loosely in various ways so far. She has talked about cyberbulge and social media and the and other issues. Her communication director tells me a mix of all three it might be, this might be a sort of unusual rollout it may may be two or three things so definitely an interesting way to tackle all of these issues but certainly the Opioid Crisis is something she is focused on, especially in newborns and, again, bullying on social media and kindness on social media and then just the Overall Health and wellbeing both emotional and physical of children are things she is focusing on. I travel with the first lady and i cover a lot of her events and we were at a middle school in michigan when she talked about inclusion and being kind to your classmates and we were in cincinnati at the childrens official where she met with medical officials and experts on opioids effect with neonatal and i think see her focus on it more. Its necessary. I think most would applaud the loyalty she has to trying to push kindness and social media and being responsible for your actions. The problem is a lot of people see her husband, the president , as one of the most one of the biggest violators, i suppose, of that whole idea. How much potency does chef in that regard . I think quite a bit. First lady addressed this last week when she had tech leaders at the white house for discussion on this. I know people will say this is a topic i shouldnt be tackle sort of speaking to the elephant in the room which is her husbands name calling on twitter, et cetera. She said im going to do it any way and i think a certain sense of maybe having that help her, sort of saying, listen, this is an example of what could be, as an example of what i want teach and what should be and i think it says something about her independence and her strength and pushing forward on this just because he does one thing doesnt mean that she cant try to influence a generation to do another. That way she is very unique, i think. Im sorry. I have to ask about Stormy Daniels because she was on saturday night live last night. Shes in the public eye. Here is the first lady trying to push forward her initiative. How did that balance each other . How does that work, kate . Have you ever seen anything like this before . Reporter no, we havent. Its very interesting. She has not said a word publicly. We have sort of watched some moves like cancelling a trip here or taking a separate motorcade there or not walking to marine one together on occasion. Certainly she has expressed nonverbally there might be some tension. However, she is continuing on this front. She has been stoic and hasnt commented and is trying to push forward in the face of these salacious headlines and it must be difficult and sources say its a tense time there but this is a first lady going to do what she is going to in fight spite of or because of other headlines affecting her husband. She doesnt nel worry or consider herself with the west wing issues and she is going to push forward. But certainly not to use a pun but a dark cloud hanging over what she has been doing the past few months. So nice to hear she is determined to punch through it with her own identity, no doubt about it. Kate bennett, we appreciate it so much. Thank you. Reporter sure. According to sources close to senator john mccain he is already planning his funeral and he is making it clear which president s h
