Secretary pompei out defending the president s sit down with putin just yesterday. The present has been clear, a Business Council will start at processes, many things came from what i view as an incredibly important meeting, one i think the world will have benefited from when history is written. Harris my first guess, a democrat from New Hampshire sits on that Foreign Relations committee. He will be participating in todays hearing in just a couple of hours with secretary pompeo. You have lead the charge to get the american interpreter to talk. Why . I think we need to know what happened in the meeting between President Trump and Vladimir Putin. Theres been a lot of information put out by the russian government, either the ministry of defense by their ambassador. We havent gotten any kind of a readout from President Trump about what happened there and ive had a chance to ask some of our state Department Officials what they know about what he mightve agreed to on syria, on the crimea, on ukraine, and none of them have been able to answer what happened at that meeting that meeting. Harris i am curious when i see push against whomever it is in the white house, leaders have them all the time, phone calls we shouldnt be privy to, meetings. Barack obama had meetings we were not privy to. Is it a political push or do you not trust that you would ever find out. You could just ask the presiden president. I hope the president will be forthcoming. So far, the people who are i have had a chance to ask about what happened in that meeting had not been able to report on anything because they didnt know anything. Yet we are hearing from russia, from their minister of defense, that agreements were made. When is the white house, when is the administration going to push back on whats being said by russia . And are they going to say it is not appropriate for the russian government to attack our generals, to suggest that we should send a former ambassador over to russa to answer questions. These are not appropriate. The fact that the president and Vladimir Putin had a meeting is fine. But when the president has this kind of a long meeting with no one present, when nothing is told to either congress or the American People about what happened, we need to start asking questions. Harris senator, i am patiently listening for that turn, there was so much that went on between the former president and iran. There are still deals we havent seen from that dictatorship, for lack of a better word. What we agreed to pull out of. I wonder if there isnt a double standard here. I didnt hear the same pushing back then. What did president obama agreed to from democrats . We saw what he agreed to, we saw the iran nuclear deal. Harris lets move on. Out there arent any deals we have seen because they didnt exist, those deals have been made up by people who didnt agree with that iran deal. The president didnt like it, hes pulled us out. The question is what are we going to do now about iran . Harris i certainly respectfully disagree based on the reporting and what ive heard. I want to move on to this, theres some political fallout. 43 of people, american voters, not one particular party or the other but nearly 2,000 voters have said they back the meeting between the president and putin coming up in washington. Lets look forward now. What do you think about that . There is some Political Risk now not to be looking forward. Hopefully we are all looking forward on what we need to do to support the National Security interests of the United States. I dont think having the president invite Vladimir Putin to the white house, which is an honor. It is an honor for us to bring heads of state to america and to have them to the white house. Unfortunately, he has not made any required concessions from Vladimir Putin about this, he is elevating him without any kind of clear agenda about what he wants to accomplish. He needs to talk to his Foreign Policy team, to secretary pompeo, about what our goals should be. I dont object to his talking to Vladimir Putin, obviously we need to talk to the people who are aggressors which russia certainly is. But to honor them in a way he has done to put Vladimir Putins word above that of our intelligence agencies is not in americas interest. Harris you will have an opportunity as other senators will at 3 00 p. M. Eastern to ask secretary pompeo about this very issue. How will you ask the question . What will it be exactly that you want to know . There are a number number of people who will go before me, i want to know what he knows. I want to know what he knows about our follow up with north korea on any denuclearization efforts. Those are going to be the questions i will ask. Harris thank you very much for getting the conversation started today. Lets get reaction from the other side of the political aisle. Joining me now, a wyoming senator who sits on that Foreign Relations committee as well. A republican, great to see you. I think you can hear some of the conversation i just had. I want to start off if we can where she hit a point with me, the iran deal. She said no, there were never any signed deals. Ive had lawmaker after lawmakers say the opposite of that. Where is she coming from . You are right, there were signed deals, we found out about them. I think President Trump was absolutely correct to pull us out of the entire iran deal. I think that will come up today in the hearings with secretary pompeo. Im interested in asking him about his trip to north korea after the singapore summit and i want to ask about some of the things that happened with the meeting in helsinki with the president and Vladimir Putin. Harris thank you, its hard to prove a negative. What do you say to the people who actually saw them . That gets complicated. Lets move on. You are going to ask a series of questions, she wants the american interpreter. And you say what . I think thats unnecessary. Some of the senators play to the camera, going to be looking for information and updates on whats happening today, whats happening now. When you hear the Russian Ambassador is saying there were some decisions made about a future nuclear treaty, i have questions about that and want to make sure from secretary pompeo where we stand with that because we know russia has been cheating on the intermediate weapons, we know the new treaty was a terrible treaty that president obama got us into. I want to specifically talk about that as well. Asking those questions specifically regarding russia and the meeting in helsinki. Harris as i said to the senator that just joined us, obviously russia is going to play, they are going to come out of that meeting, they know its a private meeting, we will get the president of the United States. They know what was talking about and of course they are going to leverage that. On capitol hill you are yoked together on finding out what exactly is the truth. The second summit is an opportunity with secretary pompeo to not just find out about russia but also the north korea second summit potentially. Right now i have some concerns that both russia and china are working to undermine the sanctions against north korea. The sanctions and tough talk and action by President Trump got north korea to the table in the first place. Its what got their attention. It seems that both china and russia are supplying north korea with energy and oil in an effort to undermine the sanctions. It does seem to be a sliver of good news coming out of north korea. I am looking forward to that update with regards to the missiles that seem to be taken away and the effort is there to denuclearize at least the first step of north korea. Harris there is a play at hand by the democrats, when the president meets privately like this with an adversary, would you want there to be a difference in the second summit . What that there be more people in the room . There was a story about when Ronald Reagan met with the former soviet leader. He knew what he was doing. President trump is a man of action and results. When you look at what the president was doing with regard to russia and military weapons, with deploying patriot missiles, they can be used as a defense against russia, i think his tough talk with nato, about the dependence of germany on Russian Energy sources i think the president is right. We cannot allow our nato friends to become dependent on russia. Harris some military observers look at secretary of state pompeo as the right guy to get certain things done. What do you say about that . Secretary pompeo, headed the cia. When he went to north korea after the singapore summit and they made some comments, was he a gangster making his demands . The guy who was first in his class at west point said look, you are dealing with President Trump now. President trump means what he says. There are going to be consequences if you dont eliminate these nuclear weapons. I think it was because of the reputation President Trump has as a man of and results. Harris quickly, no doubt the topic of russian meddling in our election will come up. As we look for how to keep it from happening again, specifically what went down in the summit with that . Will no doubt come up with the secretary of state today. I expect that it will, secretary pompeo has been very clear, weve seen russia tried to undermine nato and undermine democracy, we seen them involved in elections in england, france, germany. Its what Vladimir Putin does. Hes cunning, opportunistic, aggressive. Thats what we are dealing with. Harris 3 00 p. M. Today is the appointment, when you start to ask the questions of secretary pompeo. Thank you for your time. President trump is going after his former Attorney Michael Cohen, what he is saying and the possible motive. And the president of the European Commission is hoping to deescalate trade tensions when he visits the white house today. We will talk with him right before he goes in. Stay close. The story is going to be one President Trump sits down oneonone, nobody else. Where there is a political willingness, there is a political way. I just say, keep an open mind. You may be surprised by the outcome. When i received the diagnosis, i knew at that exact moment, whatever it takes, wherever i have to go. Im beating this.

The president tweeted this. What kind of lawyer would take a client such as this, is this our first . Why was the tape so abruptly terminated while i was presumably saying such positive things . Listen to that recording for yourself, listen carefully. Ive spoken to alan about how to set the whole thing up, yes. All the stuff, you never know with that company, im all over that. When it comes to the financing, no, no. Harris Michael Cohens attorney who gave the tape to cnn tells another media outlet that there is more to come. Kevin live at the house with more. Lanny davis, the longtime clinton confidant says this is really about Rudy Giuliani. He says listen, that is the issue, but whats also interesting is this description he makes for why he released this particular recording. Listen carefully to what lanny davis has to say about that. Everybody who voted for donald trump, dont believe me, im a democrat. Listen to the tape. Its not about cash versus not cash, its about truth and the power of the truth is what Michael Cohen now has. Thats an interesting part of the equation. Whats also interesting is why did michael call and record this conversation with his client . Heres davis explanation for that. Michael cohen has an answer to why he taped conversations and i think he will have to give that answer himself. I will say Michael Cohen has turned a corner in his life and is now dedicated to telling the truth to everyone and we will see what happens. As you can well imagine that didnt go over so well over on twitter. Truly Rudy Giuliani continuing e back and forth. He said theres a dispute about what is privileged and what is not. However, the decision to record his client could ultimately cause him to be disbarred. One thing we know for certain, Rudy Giuliani is convinced the records dont damages client. What makes clear is this is at most an attempt, i dont know any attempts in this category of crime they are looking at. I dont think anyone can suggest that this represents anything where the president did anything wrong. Interesting to listen to him describe it that way. He says this was an attempt, perhaps a discussion of an attempt. Thats also critical as we look at what has been revealed thus far. A very interesting recording indeed, harris. Harris kevin corke, thank you very much. Im going to need a judge now. Senior judicial analyst, judge Andrew Napolitano. I have so many questions. Lanny davis answer is basically i am not going to tell you right now. The answer is intriguing, the law is an attorney can record a client with the clients consent. They are required to make copious notes of all his communications with their clients, they may argue that the recording is the most effective way to take notes but the client like this, hes got to get the clients consent which apparently he didnt have. Harris ive heard it both ways. Here in new york, you only need one side to give consent, and thats not what youre saying. When you are a lawyer you are regulated by the ethics regulators, something can be lawful but also unethical. I dont know if he will be disbarred but he will suffer some sort of professional discipline. Harris is this in fact attorneyclient privileged information . It was unless it involved a discussion of a crime or fraud. 100 years ago, when i went to law school, the law was whatever the client and the lawyer talked about, no matter what it was was privileged to the client and put it release it. The law changed, the crime fraud exception to attorneyclient privilege. Harris you say there was fraud here, how so . A material misrepresentation made to get somebody to rely on it to their detriment. This woman with who the president allegedly had an affair and was paid 150,000 by the National Enquirer , going through some Shell Corporation to the National Enquirer , agreed to return for the 150,000, she wouldnt talk to anybody but the National Enquirer. They never agreed to publish it, they never intended to. Thats the active fraud, thats the misrepresentation. The people from the National Enquirer then, mr. Donald trump, his lawyer and this person, alan, who was and still is general counsel to the trump organization, they engaged in fraud. Therefore there is no attorneyclient privilege and bob mueller can listen to the tapes and use them. Harris i want to step in because there are different types of fraud and this is not necessarily criminal fraud, it could be civil. Correct. Criminal fraud is where you dupe somebody out of money to line your own pockets. Civil fraud is where you dupe somebody out of money to harm them. Key word in both, you trick them, you made a material rep emac misrepresentation. This is civil fraud but both types of fraud are covered under the crime fraud exception to the attorneyclient priv
