Kristen fisher tracking et development in the middle east following the president s tweet that missiles are headed for syria. Syria. The latest on the showdown the latest on the showdown between the gop and fbi but we begin with National Correspondent and henry covering the mueller probe. So much breaking news, one source is saying the real goal was a search and destroy mission against donald trump. The Washington Post breaking a major story saying steve bannonu now has a controversial plan to now has a controversial plan to blow up all cooperation with Robert Mueller, all of this stemming from the fact that we are learning a lot more about what the fbi was looking for when theyy targeted the president s personal attorney they wanted more details on the access Hollywood Tape raising access Hollywood Tape raising new questions whether there were other attempted payoffs in the 2016 campaign and raising eyebrows about why this investigation is veering far from the original mission of finding collusion between russian adventures and disrupt finding collusion between russian adventures and disrupt him. The present is furious and still peaked about theor way his personal attorney was treated. Sources a part of what the fbi was looking for was documents related to the infamous access Hollywood Tape, appears to be an attempt to link the tape to Stormy Daniels which was the president s attorney trying to stop more bad publicity late in the campaign. Did any of this constitutes an Illegal Campaign contribution or violation of Campaign Finance law. Cbs news is reporting search and seizure warnings executed against mentioned the president s name several times one source saying it was a search and destroy mission to specifically go after the president all of this infuriating the president , his a top aides and leaving Sarah Sanders to make clear the president believes Robert Muellers probe leading a witchhunt and appealing his mandate and leaving the door open to the firing of Rod Rosenstein who approved the raids, as one of the president s outside legal advisors urged the atty. Gen. To get more active. Paul ryan has been given assurances the president isnt planning on fire rosenstein or mueller. Do you know where he is getting those assurances . From the president or others . I dont have any announcements on that front. What bob mueller is doing and has done is destroy the department of justice and for Jeff Sessions to sit there like a bump on a log and do nothing r is disgraceful. Washington post says Steve Bennett is urging his old colleagues in the white house to get more aggressive with a multipronged assault on the federal investigation telling Administration Officials get the president to fire rosenstein to rein in mueller and stop cooperation, have no president ial interview with a special counsel and bannon once the president to retroactively invoke executive privilege, to cooperate with special counsel, that he can noe longer use that material. Shannon we will see if the president is listening to his advice. The threat of legal action and more for the Justice Department, learning more about why trump Administration Officials have been reluctant to share the contents of a topsecret fbi memo involving russia and the 2016 election. Catherine herridge late details. Reporter after threatening contempt of congress the republican chairman of the House Intelligence Committee devon nunez along with congressman trey Guardians Committee staffers went to the Justice Departmenttw and met with Rod Rosenstein and a copy of the memo that kick started the russia probe and lawmakers demanded government source told fox reductions were, quote, minimal and justified. The two page memo from july 2016 was drafted by or with significant input with peter stzrok after the discovery of antitrump Text Messages which nunez said legal action was warranted after months of delay by the fbi and Justice Department. That tells me theres something wrong. What are the chances of contempt of congress right now . Not just hold them in contempt, but to impeach. To impeach Christopher Ray . We are not messing around. Despite the 11th hour resolution fox news said congressional investigators remain concerned about the underlying intelligence and the credibility of its sources and it will require further investigation. The Justice Department provided a statement that the rejections are tailored to protect the name of Foreign Countries and the name of a foreign agent. There was no immediaten. Ry resp from the fbi. Reporter wall street Journal Editorial Board calling the fbi raid on Donald Trumps personal attorney and extraordinary intrusion into a targets right to counsel. Mike huckabee, great to see you. Thanks for having me. What do you think of that, people who see these search warrants it was really the president who was the target and it was a search and destroyt mission. Anything about that surprise you . Not nothing surprises me because whilst would you coh go after michael cohen. You dont know breaking doors down and taking over peoples computers and going into their homes, personal residences and upsetting their children because you think he might have made a campaign contribution, that is nonsense. This is clearly annin attempt t intimidate the president , to do Everything Possible to intimidate his attorney and most americans have a good sense of justice, they want their to be justice apply even if you are the president but they wanted to be applied equally and they dont see that happening, nobody busted down cheryl mills store, nobody went into homes house when Anthony Weiner had all kinds of information he shouldntt have had on his computer. There is something tawdry about all this. Is parties from the wall street Journal Editorial Board saying the smart advice which the wont take is to keep quiet about Robert Mueller and the Political Capital by trying to succeed as president. He cant control mr. Mueller but he can control himself as that might be the only way to save his presidency and rush limbaugb says he doesnt think mueller it wouldve leaked if he did so this is the purpose of the raid. The drivebys want trump to fire himself by firing mueller. They are asking him if he is going to. They are goading him into doing it because that is the only way they think they will succeed and be able to participate in the great project of bringing down donald trump. The only people who think donald trump is going to fire mueller are the press people who hope he does. But the president has not said that. s staff hasnt said that, they technology has the power to do it but having the power to do it and actually doing it are 2 different things. I see no indication that donald trump has an intention to fire bob mueller because he knows the firestorm it would create that this is the narrative the media has created to discredit donald trump and to be a distraction. To make it appear that is what he is doing. Why else would they be contemplating passing legislation that would protect bob mueller. Was going to great protect the Great Republic of ours and the integrity of the office of the president and the separation of powers . Who is going to protect every american from the intrusion of a federal agency coming and busting into your home on a fishing expedition that has nothing to do with russia and collusion . A shannon there are concerns about attorneyclient privilege, the document separate from the investigative team, thanks for drinking the red pool. Thank you. Thank you. Shannon the crisis over syria, leaders of the United States and russia talking tough, each side with a defined posture. Kristen fisher looks at the back of this rhetoric. Reporter the selfimposed deadline of 48hour to make a decision about what to do in syria past a few hours ago and theys white house says the president has not made a final decision and all options are unstable. The us and its allies are trying to confirm that the asad regime was behind this attack. Here is the secretary of defense. We are assessing the intelligence ourselves and our allies. The pattern of the strike. We arens ready to provide military options as the president determined. Shannon those include 75 tomahawk missiles and also in position the french frigate known as the aquitaine but russian warships also on the move. These images show 11 russian warships in syria have been put to see. There is a ton of firepoweradly the region. Tensions incredibly high and this morning donald trump said this, roosevelt to shoot down any and all missiles fired at syria, get ready, russia m becae they will be coming nice and new and smart. The president is taking a lot of tweet, critics say he did what he criticized his predecessor of doing, broadcasting us military strategy before it happens buth the White House Press secretary says not so fast and here is why. We are maintaining we have a number of options and all those options are still on the table. Final decisions havent been made on that front. Will donald trump follow through on these threats and if so will russia retaliate . Us and russian militaries are preparing for direct confrontation. Paul ryan has r had enough, part of the questioning tomorrow for secretary of state nominee mike pompeo, purse during his confirmation hearing to defined from Administration Foreign policy. The committee on Foreign Relations joins us, good to have you with us. Lets back up because right now we are standing by what is going to happen with syria. The president has talked tough publicly about it, sen. Lindsey graham say earlier on fox the graham say earlier on fox the president better deliver because he talked big and if he doesnt come through foreign leaders are not going to respect him. What responsede do you expect . A year ago in terms of the Cruise Missile attacks on syria, i expect more of the same and this time he is involving france, great britain, saudi arabia. We have a coalition, we cannot allow this to stand. The questions in the hearing willtand be how does one hold a accountable . Mike 6 is the right person to be secretary of state and people listening to my will be convinced of that. The chairman of your Committee Says he has doubts how the us response will go. Here is what he said. Becoming a little concerned we may move into a situation like we did with pres. Obama where statements are made, no action taken. Wears that coming from and do redline and it turned into a green light and we saw asad using chemical weapons on his people. People. When Donald Trump Took Office when Donald Trump Took Office the same thing happened in syria donald trump reacted decisively and i expect he will react again, canceled his trip to latin america and secretary of defense mamattis has canceled h trip and he will be here throughout the weekend, we have got to get a secretary of state in place and that is why hearings are consequential adequate confirmation is necessary. Chris murphy had this to say about what he sees shaping up with these nominees. A lot of us are worried about the combination of neil gorsuch and the National Security visoro putting a set of military options on the table for the president , could do real damage to our National Security. We will see what questions he has and how he votes but he has doubts about that combination. I have no doubts about that combination. Very confident inde their abili. Mike neil gorsuch, i travel to interNational Security conferences with them, he knows the issues, he was number one in his class at west point, graduated harvard law school, member of congress for t the la year director of the cia and confirmed 15 democrats voted for him. He is the right person. He understands he and donald trump have wonderful chemistry. He understands our enemies out there, a lot on syria, issues of russia, it ran, north korea, there is a full plate of issues internationally and if we want safety and stability at home you need to have a world where there is peace and stability as he wants to get that done from the standpoint of diplomatic activities but isieie not afrai take other measures. Shannon the committee has split 11 republicans and 10 democrats, rand paul saying he is a no vote, opposes the nomination on numerous grounds. You need some democrats to support them, you mentioned 15 supported him in the vote for cia director but a number of them are saying this is a d different job. Totally different. Will you get democrat support at least the committee is more broadly . I believe we will and we need to do that. Such resistance by the democrats to donald trump putting any of his team in place, time to say the world is a dangerous place, the president needs his teamam place, mike pompeo has been selected and to me he is the right person to do that job. I support him fully. After people listen to him tomorrow they will see in terms of the immediate threat syria, iran, north korea, the right person in terms of ongoing threats from russia, the right person in terms of the longterm concerns in terms of where china may be going, their longterm plans and dramatic standpoint. A lot of people think he will go about this differently than rex to listen did and depending where you are on these issues thatat is plus or minus. Good to have you, sen.

Shannon speaker paul ryans potential retirement was one of the worst kept secret in washington with the timing of todays announcement that he wont seek reelection, seven months before the midterm, a lot of people drop a political bombshell. Chad pergram, who knows everything that is going on, well break it down. The president talk today about the legacy that ryan will leave behind. What does he leave . At his tax reform. This is something that paul ryan wanted to do from the minute he walked up to congress in 1999. He got that done. That is a major part of his legacy. But earlier today on fox, he talked about some of the things he didnt get done and there are a couple of drinks in his armor. Speaker repealing a note repealing and replacing obamacare something that i wanted to do. Im proud of the fact that the house has done at. Entitlements are the biggest drivers of the debt. Remember, House Speaker paul ryan had been the chairman of the budget committee, the fabled ryan budgets, which were supposed to bring things into balance. That never happened. One of the things that paul ryan will be remembered for is the fact he did not bring down spending. They just passed the omnibus bill, tax reform, Congressional Budget Office did come of this will add almost 2 trillion to the debt in the next couple of. 21 trillion in debt right now. That is a part of his legacy. He didnt bring down deficit spending. Shannon he certainly wanted to. A hard sell. How does his leadership race shakeout . The reason paul ran a speaker of the house right now is because Kevin Mccarthy, the majority leader, di
