That position, and he didnt want to burden general kelly also with that line of succession. Jesse take a look at how the broadcast News Networks covered scaramuccis firing tonight. Speak out the staff bloodletting at the white house claimed Anthony Scaramucci today, ousted today after a stormy six days on the job. It was one of the fastest, crudest flame outs in west wing history. Communications director Anthony Scaramucci, known simply as the mooch. So far, there have been as many firings in the white house as an average season of theapprentice ,closeweb. Com jesse and then there are other people that say this guy flew too close to the sun. He was a mini trump, a big ego, took a lot of attention, so people close to trump said good night. How do you see it . Speak of a sense of my reporting tonight is that it is both. If you go back to his one and only briefing where he did that little kiss to the media at the end, Anthony Scaramucci says entrepreneur, he knew all about incrementalism, and that you dont want to say or do anything too outlandish. You just basically want the 3 yards and a cloud of dust and then keep gaining ground. Thats not what he did. From the beginning, he was all in, then the profanity laced interview with the new yorker, one thing after another just piled up. The second part as you mentioned general kelly, this was served up to him on a platter. What better way for general kelly on day one, our one practically this morning, to say there is a new sheriff here, we are turning the page. Scaramucci, basically with all the antics and the rest, he made it quite easy for the new chief of staff to say, here is somebody i can throw aside. Some of the other folks inside the white house, ivanka trump, jared kushner, and others, they wanted to see Reince Priebus go. For them, Anthony Scaramucci took care of business, got Reince Priebus out, got sean spicer out, and all you have general kelly, hopefully starting a whole new chapter for their father and fatherinlaw. Jesse maybe this is all an elaborate plan to bring in scaramucci. We will go around the table. Kimberly guilfoyle. Kimberly i was listening to the press conference earlier with Sarah Sanders and then the press release. There was also a statement earlier. About the next steps and whether or not he is going to do any other position. The press release was interesting. It said that Anthony Scaramucci had gone to the new chief of staff and said he wanted to offer him a clean slate, so he can put his own team in place. That put it, framed it, as scaramucci stepping aside and resigning basically. When Sarah Huckabee sanders came out, she made it sound like a lot more of a firing. The president was upset about the language that scaramucci used in that interview with the new yorker. It sounded more like he was pushed out, and frankly, it was confusing about whether or not he was going to go back to the export import bank, which was where he was before he came in asking occasions director, because Sarah Huckabee sanders said, he does not have a role in the administration right now. So, maybe the door is open after the dust settles for him to go back to the export import bank, but even if he does that, that as a whole lot different than the job he was boasting about ten days ago, saying i have access to the oval office. I report directly to the president. Things have changed, and they have changed directly. Jesse and now for someone who was very sad to see scaramucci go, Juan Williams. Juan i am still not clear on sequence of events. As i understand, the president over the weekend, scoured on scaramucci and the profanity laden tirade to the new yorker. But other people say that it was the new chief of staff that said he has to go. What is the case . Im glad you brought that up again. The story going around from the white house was that the president was offended by the profanity from Anthony Scaramucci. That has a lot of the president s critics tonight rolling their eyes, saying, really, the president , locker room talk . He was offended like that . That sounds like cover. What was really going on here was general kelly wanting to put his stamp as the new chief of staff on this white house, and with Anthony Scaramucci, he had a great opportunity to do that. In fact, there are people close to scaramucci suggesting that he was trying to get some sort of a vote of confidence from general kelly, and it never came. And it is interesting that we got some pictures of scaramucci, in the oval office, when the press got in about 9 30, nine 40 this morning. He was in the oval office, and then later the resident has a Cabinet Meeting, with no sign of scaramucci. He was pushed out pretty quickl quickly. Jesse dana perino. Dana its interesting if you hear anything, maybe there is a sense of relief that the marines have landed, and there is going to be some combing of the seas in the west wing. It is interesting, because you talk about combing. The president started today with a tweet saying that the with the stock market rising to a record level with the southern border being secured, some of his or publish is being laid out that he doesnt think the Mainstream Media is giving him credit for, he put out this tweak thing there is no chaos here at the white house. Making it like, general kelly is coming in and it is going to be tranquil, hot and a couple of hours later, yes, there is even more tumult. Frankly, what i have been hearing from advisors of the president and some staffers around here, they are hoping that general kelly is turning the page and bringing, restoring some order here. But in the short term, this with scaramucci leaving so abruptly is yet another example of why a lot of people in this administration are on edge, because they dont know how many more people general kelly will bring in to put his own stamp on the white house, and how many people will be moving out. So, in the short term, there is a lot of uncertainty. Jesse brace yourself, add. Greg has a question, it could be a statement. Were not sure. Greg i have a hypothetical question. I dont answer hypotheticals. Greg do you know who will lasted longer than scaramucci at the white house . Anyone who has ever taken a tour. I dont want to hammer him too hard, i dont want to make it awkward in the mens room. But i dont think its about restoring order at all. Its about establishing order. We havent had any order, and maybe you can agree with me, because thats what id like you to do, i think this is a good thing. The reason i think it is a good thing is because all of these reporters, jesse included, are sad to see him go for purely the entertainment value. That he will always be giving these gasps. He is an endless fountain of craziness. It is a good thing to deprive the media of this opportunity for gasps. It is an establishing of order. If you strip away all of the other media gibberish about this and that, and whats going on, some of what the president is tweeting about is absolutely true. The stock market keeps reaching record levels. General kelly at the department of Homeland Security has been cracking down on illegal immigration. There is a sharply reduced number of illegal trying to cross the border, because they know there is a new sheriff in town. He is actually succeeding at some of the things he promised to do. But there are other big things, like tax reform, like health care, that he has not yet succeeding at, or struggling on in the case of health care. Tax reform, glass halffull, because they are just starting to tackle that. The bottom line is, if you go back to the obama days, you can use the pen and the phone, and do all the executive actions you want. That is larger what this president has done, but i think the obama years, as other things, new president comes in and used as many as those executive actions as they want. You have to lock in executive gains. So with scaramucci out of the way, this president can finally, may be, focus on those legislative goals he promised the american people. Jesse in my defense, has greg gutfeld attacked me unfairly, i dont like scaramucci for the gasps, i like him for the laughs. Dana its the same thing. Greg thats the same thing. Jesse i think we have a different sense of humor. But he was impressive at disarming the media at the same time, coming out swinging. I want to ask you before we let you go, about this Washington Post story that is making headlines. Trump dictated sons misleading statement on russia. They are saying on air force one, when they trump junior russia meeting story was breaking, the president , came in and said no, we are going to write it like this. They say it is misleading, and its not very well sourced, so im wondering what your take on this is. Some of this is probably hyped. The New York Times had already reported that on the way back from the d20 summit, the president and some aid were on air force one crafting that statement and had a direct role in saying what trump, jr. , had to do with that meeting in trump tower in 2016. What is new, is not just they are crafting a statement, they are claiming, from their sources, that it was the president himself ripping up the statement, disavowing the advice of his advisors, to be more transparent and getting all the details out there. Instead, the president , they are claiming tonight, the directed this himself and put out a misleading statement. This was about russian adoption, it wasnt about the campaign. As we all know now, new details keep dribbling out after that. Bottom line tonight, that is something that a lot of people are going to be hyperventilating about overnight, there is no crime, though. In a misleading statement that is put out. The question for the president is, wait a second, is this a part of a larger pattern of firing james call me and other things that made it at least look like he didnt want the truth to come out, they faxed to come out on russia. Of course, the present would reject that narrative, but that is the case the Washington Post is trying to make tonight. I can tell you, i just spoke a moment ago with one of the president s top advisors outside the white house, he told me after reading this Washington Post story, this advisor set, this is a problem, because it is making it look like the president directed the misleading statement, and was more involved in it and then we knew before. A lot more facts are going to come out, as we have seen with other stories. There is the screaming headline at night, and the next day, sometimes, other facts come out that make it sound a lot less innocuous, but tonight, i can tell you talking to one of the president s advisors, they are a little concerned about this. Jesse we dont know what happened, because no one was there on air force one. But if its true, i dont know if its true, but if its true, someone within President Trumps inner circle on air force one is leaking to the Washington Post, and thats a big, big problem. Right. And a part of the whole scaramucci thing was, all of the leaks are going to start. And all of this comes out. Think of what you just that, this is the frustration of the trump white house. If this is true, it would be a big deal, and be really bad for the president. And yet, a lot of news organizations are putting out stories that are, Anonymous Sources say this, were not sure if were going to lock this down or not. They are deeply frustrated that one time after another, if this is true, it is going to be a big deal. Jesse ed, thanks very much. As President Trump praises his new chief of staff, one democratic lawmaker is condemning the pick. Her stunning remarks when we return. Kimberly this morning, President Trump welcomed his new chief of chief of staff, general john kelly. We just swore in john kelly. He will do a spectacular job, i have no doubt, as chief of staff. What he has done in terms of Homeland Security is record shattering. If you look at the border, you look at the tremendous results we have had, and you look at the spirit. Kimberly but not everyone is pleased at the president s pick. When the news of kellys new role broke on friday, democratic congresswoman slammed the new choice. Saying, by putting john kelly in charge, President Trump is militarizing the white house and putting the executive branch in the hands of an extremist. And yesterday, the defendant had a remark. Ive been talking about it, his tenure as Homeland Security secretary. And the very extreme policies of promoting family dislocation, breaking up families, promoting a muslim man, promoting a wall between the United States and mexico, those are extreme policies. Kimberly all right, dana, is this a fair criticism . Dana i thought that she was going to talk about his long 45 year career as a public servant, serving as a fourstar marine general. He has been in the department of Homeland Security for five months, he was the one that was willing to go back and redo the travel ban to make sure he could pass the muster in the courts. He was also basically implementing the law that was on the books. If you dont like it, may be you can try to change it. This is a man with a Public Servants heart. He was offered the job in may, and he said no. He has obviously given this a lot of thought. It is not a rash decision. It might look like today, all of these moves are quite sudden, but i think that they were in the works for a while. If i were the president , i would be so relieved to have a chief of staff that i have confidence in, because a chief of staff makes short life is easier. You dont have to worry about anything, you say, talk to john. All of us need a chief of staff. First of all, i need a staff, and then i need a chief to organize it, because it makes your life easier to flow information to and from a president. I think they should dismiss her comment altogether. Irrelevant. Kimberly jesse, general kelly, coming in, he has an excellent reputation and from all reports, the present was very happy with the drop he was doing at the department of Homeland Security, and, as dana said, this has been something that the president has been contemplating for some time in terms of making a change at the chief of staff level. Jesse yeah, what is so extremist about supporting a border wall. Do we not have walls in our apartment, so people cant just waltz in. Is ruth bader ginsburg, and extremist . Is ms13 some sort of choir group . Barbara lee is the extremist, but she leave a lives in oregoo she doesnt realize it. She has voted for creating a department of peace. Guess what, we have one, its called the department of defense. Barbara lee hangs out in cuba, she hangs out with black panthers and other communists, she hangs out with castro, and shes out of her mind. Its usually people that denigrate the military are the first ones that raise her hands and they need help and they need the military to help them and protect them. I would not trust her in a foxhole. Kimberly im sure she doesnt want to be in one either. Do you think its fair to criticize someone for serving their country and to say that that should somehow be held against them because they obtained the rank that they had. Greg they could do it, but its stupid. It makes no sense. This appointment is refreshing on another number of levels. The expense he has goes against generations of infatuations with the self. We live in a society where all we care about is us. When we look at the military, they see something bigger than the self. Its a natural anecdote to these decades of politics. It thats why she doesnt understand about terry, it is completely opposite to politics. This appointment has already rejected and highlighted miller miliphobia. We have been hearing what the word militarization forever. Militarization is cast as a negative trait here. But if you look at what militarize, discipline, order, manners, bravery, the ability to defend yourself, the people you love, the people around you, who cannot defend themselves. If that is militarization, every arena in this country should be militarized. We should be taking those values and implicating them in every way. Think about it, would you rather have a campus, nope you want militarization. Its the only thing that works. Juan , no. We see a situation where, you get general kelly coming in. He also had general mcmasters in there. Mattis, the defense secretary. You have all these people that donald trump is impressed with, but the question is, why . Are we turning the whole country over to an authoritarian figure, who then says, you Better Believe in the military, the military is very popular, just do with the multisays. The mill terry told me to do it, its okay. I think this is not american in so many ways. Greg it youre saying not american to a point, juan let me finish my point. Greg you did finish her point juan i dont think the military should be in charge and running the government. And, by the way, nobody said that she was critical of kelly for his military service. What she said was, supporting breaking up families, a muslim man, and the wall. Jesse oh, so hes following orders from a civilian. Isnt that what your point was . How is that militarizing the government . You just made your own point. Kimberly i have a followup question. Dana, have you ever heard of this in the past where someone would say, being a general wouldnt be someone who would be suitable for a position like that . Dana like what barbara lee is saying . No. But what Juan Williams us and, yes. There were concerns starting with the founding fathers. This goes a long way, but i do think there is some room here for some sensibility. Ive also heard that the person that the president is looking to replaced general kelly with, is not from the military. Kimberly what you think about that pick . Dana great. Excellent. Greg i would almost agree with some of what he said if barbara lee wasnt so antimilitary. Its like you had nothing to do with the military. Juan no, she is about peace, theres no question about that. And about general kelly, he lost a son. To me, there is no greater sacrifice. And he has also served, not only honorably with exceptional capability in afghanistan, but that is different and saying, oh, i want the military to run my government. Jesse he is not running the government, he is following orders from a civilian. Kimberly lets see it, hopefully he will do a good job.

Greg last week a video showed President Trump ignoring the outstretched hand of a handicap boy. It was retweeted thousands of times by thousands of people, including celebrities. Here is the highlighted portion. When i looked at it, i knew it was off. Who ignores a handicapped kid. There has to be more to it. Because there is always more to everything these days. All things must be verified, and even then, you should hold off tweeting about it just in case. But few did, figuring that donald trump is so evil he doesnt deserve such courtesy. Heres what really happened at the event. Isnt that amazing . Talk about fake news, and the kind you can easily check. So who really benefits from this kind of attack. I think its the president. The more you demonize him, the more it fosters somebody. People on twitter, celebrities, les. It raises a few questions. Why is it always the left but does this stuff. Whether its msnbc editing footage to hide the race of a black man with a rifle at a town hall . Or Katie Courics doctored gun documentary. There always editing to distort the truth. If donald trump is so evil, why would you need to make up evil stuff about him . The stuff should be right in front of you. Maybe you realize in quieter moments that he may not be as bad as you think. Perish the thought. If you hate somebody so much, dana, you are more likely to believe anything bad about them and suspend your skepticism. Its before you can see on friday when these tweets started coming out, all the celebrities follow each other, so it becomes a groupthink exercise. I agree with you. When you first look at that, there is no way, there has to be more. And in this day and age, you just have to use your brain, hit pause, you dont have to tweet everything that you see. Its almost as if, if you wait a day, or sometimes even a couple of hours, the truth will come out. I felt bad for the president on this one. It was unfair to him, but it does play into what youre talking about. If you distrust in the media, or twitter, and celebritys, this will reaffirm your beliefs. Greg the childs mother went on facebook to employ people that this didnt happen, and that helped stem some of this. Jesse by that time, it is too late. Because the initial tweet gets millions. And the apology only gets a few thousand. They think trump is evil, and heres why. The democrats base all of their policies on intentions. If you have intentions that are good, then you are good person. The republicans have the opposite policy, so they must not have good intentions, therefore they are evil. So, when trump doesnt shake a boys hand who is handicapped, its because he is evil. If you want a border wall, its because he is racist, when he wants tax cuts, its because he hates poor people. They need to keep this charade up because it allows them to smear republicans, and when they lose their moral authority, then they can the ends justify the means. They are so inherently good, that they can afford to draw outside the lines. Speak greg i have an intereg question for you. Chelsea clinton tweeted this video and then took it down when piers morgan called her on it. But afterwards, she said, the president should have shaken the boys hand at the end. She really is a stupid busybody, isnt she . Do you agree with me on that . Juan this was fake news, with fake news done by the left. I didnt like it. I think thats legitimate. Jesse what other kind of news is there . Juan i was kind of taken aback when you set up. I think about the pizza parlor where the made up news, then they have a right wing guy going in there with a gun. I could go on and on, but i dont want to get into the argument. But i would say that when j. K. Rowling was made aware of this, she apologized. Greg thats true. It took her six hours. Juan donald trump did, this is not fake news, mock a disabled reporter. Jesse no he didnt. Juan yes he did. Dana jesse, how can you say that . Thats unbelievable. Kimberly obviously, you hate to see Something Like that happen, because you want to get the truth on the facts out there. When you see the beginning part of the video and you see that he reached out and pay special attention to the child, it is a disservice to everybody. Greg i thought it made him look great, it was a genuine gesture. Dana he loves children. And the left hates this, the kids like him. Greg i could never be a politician. I can kiss a baby. Juan wait a minute, what if i wanted to kiss you . [laughs] kimberly he would let you. Greg directly had, on the left, they are still analyzing the driving force behind trumps election victory. The revelations of next. Dana in a rare moment of candor, we are getting a glance into what some on the left and Mainstream Media think about present trump. A real sense of cultural alienation that the older white, non noncollege educated americans have, since of their country changing because of immigrants. Because, maybe blacks are rising up to a place in society. Because gaze are being afforded equal lights. Because, frankly, a lot of voting women. Everyone is muscling in on their territory, if you think about it, that the white working man had. Dana in a Cabinet Meeting this morning, the president said a lot of his compliments are going unnoticed. Speak out we have the highest stock market in history. We have a gdp on friday that had very little mention. Unemployment is the lowest it has been in 17 years. Business enthusiasm is as high as they have ever seen it. Dana unfortunately, the good news is not usually covered. That is the way it is, so they have to go out there and talk about it. Greg, lets start with Fareed Zakaria. Basically, he is trying to give explanation into the bigotry that he thinks exists underneath everything. Greg the only time he isnt wrong is when he is play dressing, because whenever he tries to employee and original thought, he is an absolute moron. What he just did, he just smeared an entire group of people saying that the decisions they made is based on hatred and racism. I would like to say that he said that because he hates white people, he is a racist. He is an impulsive bigot. Im merely using his tactics. Why would he say that . Clearly, he is a bigot, because why did you vote for john . Because clearly youre a big. The problem with his logic is that it can be used right back at him. Dana democrats have their own research done, and it showed that they are actually quite unpopular, and it looks like if the election were held today, President Trump would win today, and so do you think comments like this help, or is this a part of the problem . Juan no, i think as far as a Cultural Divide, everyone would acknowledge there is a huge Cultural Divide in america today, and i think it was reflected in the election. When trump starts talking about the birth thing with obama, mexicans being and murderers. The muslim ban, i think that since a real strong message to a lot of people who feel like, hey, this guy was really appealing to folks who feel, somehow, displaced. Theres too much demographic mix, and that is what Fareed Zakaria is talking about. I dont think theres anything so radical about what he is saying. Greg he said more than that. Juan okay. Juan , greg he said that people are racist, sexist, xenophobic. And there probably a lot of people who agree with that. Juan i think that you can, prove, by going into counties were trump one dana that is what he was saying. Juan we see more antimuslim, antisemitic behavior in the country since President Trumps election. Greg thats another segment. We can dispute that, because a lot of that stuff has turned out to be hoaxes. Dana what Fareed Zakaria said is not a new concept. This is what has been set over a while, but they continue to lose elections, so maybe this is something that they should curtail. Kimberly youre right. I surprised to see him continuing in this way, because it is not helpful, it is not working, and it does expose, and i agree with greg, that the argument can be flipped on him. He is coming off as racist or bigoted, or xenophobic, and i dont see what his goal, his ultimate objective is. I dont think there the rhetors helping. Hes framing his argument, this conclusive proof of the democratic party. Dana do you want to wrap this up, jesse . Jesse i think racism is another thing like russia, to make sure hillary doesnt accept responsibility for losing to donald trump. And i think trump got more votes from hispanics and blacks than romney did. And as you are saying, they had counties that flip from obama to trump. Do they just become racist in the last couple of years . I think that trump one not just because of white voters, but because of people like Fareed Zakaria who are so out of touch. Thinking that everything was going so great in the economy, everything is going well, and they kept talking about back bathrooms and occupy wall street, while the rest of the country was saying, hey we are getting hammered over here. Trump spoke to those people, and that is why he won. Dana next, trump wants congress to continue with health care reform, but will they listen to his new ultimatum. Details when we juan republican senators gearing up to make a strong push for tax reform now. But President Trump is an apparently quite ready to move on and leave health care behind. Carrion, Kellyanne Conway explains. The president is not ready to move on. He wants to help those who suffered. They could not keep the doctor, they could not keep their plan, they were lied to by the last president. Juan now we have a situation where it looks like the party and the president once more out of sync. Dana i dont know if they want to call for this, but senator Lindsey Graham used some pretty colorful language. Can we toss to it . We should be politically horse whipped if we dont try again. The best idea, we havent even brought up. Take all the money under obamacare and lock granted back to the states. In singlepayer health care, the government closest to the people is the best government. The health care closest to the people is the best health care. Dana i think that, with President Trump, one of the reasons he wanted was people were tired that washington doesnt have to live under the same rules that they ask everyone else to live under. In the health care bill, that obama passed, basically all of the employees of the government have to get a plan, and the employer contribution, the government contribution is like what a fox news employee would get if they have insurance through their employer. With the president is saying, im going to take that away if you dont fix this, and Lindsey Graham is agreeing with them saying lets get back to and try to solve this problem. Juan it might be seen as the president kind of bullying members of congress, who set, including Senate Majority leader mitch mcconnell. He said, its time to move on. Really, what Republican Voters have said, we want tax reform. Kimberly i think they should do tax reform, but i think the president is trying to honor his commitment to the american people, regarding health care, and yes, he is pushing them because he wants to get it done, and he is frustrated. That is his prerogative to do so, but of course, hes putting the squeeze on them and putting spurs in them. Juan jesse, that is not the way to make friends with numbers of congress. Do you think . Jesse do you really want to be front of congress . They are not really friendly with you. Trump needs to start running against congress prayed he was very effective in the fall, he ran against congress, ran against both parties, and he won that way. Hes running against the media right now, and they dont have a very high Approval Rating. Running against congress, their Approval Rating is down. It couldnt hurt. I think the only thing that is Holding Obamacare together is developed from the insurance industry. Take those away, and its goodbye. If you take these things away from congress, maybe that will motivate them. Juan you know, greg, the question is, if you have a legislative agenda, you want congressional support, especially republican support. Is this the way to go about it . To be to just take it out of their hands. These people are incompetent. We are stuck in the prison of two ideas. There is one idea here, when instead, whenever we are trying to do anything, whether its building a product, an automobile or a hotel, you embrace market solutions. You take ingredients and innovation from all over the place. You take in ideas from other people outside your own expertise. We dont do that with health care. We just sit there and say, its either this or this. There are two Viable Options that are Pretty Simple but you can come up with, i pay for the small stuff, the government handles the catastrophic. Or, the government pays for the small stuff, and i pay for the insurance product for catastrophic. Those are two Solutions Like you could probably implement now if you took it out of the hands of the politicians and let people outside the government dana what he saying, Lindsey Graham, take on the money that is there and let the state handle it. Juan i think the republicans have a lot of egg on their face with this one. They have looked at a lot of jesse time now for one more thing. So Chris Christie got into it with a fan at a baseball game. Heres the take. Appreciate that. What did he say to you . I dont know, do you want to act like a big shot . Jesse Chris Christie, having a rough stretch this summer. Kimberly this week and i have the great honor of being a part of a fundraiser in birmingham, alabama. I want to thank the founders, they have done an extra ordinary job with this organization. The charity founded in 2013, culture city, it is the worlds first start up nonprofit for autistic individuals. That is dwight howard, accepting his award. And i was also along with some of my friends. I dont know if you know this, but one in five people have a disability, and out of this group, 84 have invisible disabilities like autism. It is the Fastest Growing developmental diagnoses in the United States. There is a lot of work to be done, a lot of families affected by it. Juan on saturday, the Baseball Hall of fame honored claire smith with the prestigious sphinx award for baseball writers. It is the first time a woman got the award. It smith is known for her groundbreaking work for women. In 1984, she was ordered out of the clubhouse during a playoff game because it a ban on women in the locker room. Star player steve garvey came out to help her, on saturday, she remembered what he told her. I will stay here as long as you need me to, but remember, you have a job to do. Juan wow. Many were in attendance, and they stood to give her a standing ovation. Greg time for something new. Gregs great mysteries. Tonight, avocado toast. What is it . Where does it come from .
