A busy weekend all right. Paula reid begins our coverage in norfolk, virginia. Good morning. Reporter good morning. Its been a tumultuous week for the white house team. The President Trump criticized his attorney general and hes lost two. Leaving the press secretary scrambling for answers. The president has absolutely nothing to do with any of the allegations that are being made. I think hes maintained that. Reporter the newly appointed press secretary said the president is ready to put the special counsel investigation aside but just a few hoyer later the weathercast post rorted that u. S. Intelligence intercept shows that Jeff Sessions discuss Campaign Matters including policy issues important to moscow with the Russian Ambassador in the 2016 race. The spokeswoman said he stands by his previous testimony that he never spoke with russian officials about interfering with the. Ka pain or the election. Earlier this week the president criticized sessions for recusing himself from the russian investigation. He should have told me before he took the job and i would have chosen somebody else. Theyre reportedly seeking new ways to discredit counsel. I can say the people who have been hire ready all Hillary Clinton supporters. Reporter they have undercut bob muellers investigation for weeks. People should know what their passions and motivations are. Reporter and the president expressed that its now reaching into the personal and business finances, issuing a warning to mueller. But the special counsel has a broad legal mandate to explore, quote, any matters that arose or may arise during the investigation. On capitol hill any white house effort to block muellers investigation was met with bipartisan dismissal. He would see a tremendous backlash response from not only democrats but also republicans. My view is firing bob mueller without cause is a violation of the rule of law.

The president s son and Paul Manafort have avoided deals to testify for now. Anthony in. Thanks. President trump praised sean spicer a the departer white house spokesman gave his resignation.

Anthony scaramucci communicates the way the president does. He uses big gestures and brings a big perspective how washington should work. Was in the oval office talking about letting him be himself. I think hes got some of the best political instingtss in the world. Reporter in the first on camera briefing, newly appointed Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci continually praised his new boss. Taking questions for more than 30 minute, he took aim to reset President Trumps public image. I think there are at times a disconnect between the way we see the president and how much we love the president and in the way you perhaps see the president. Reporter his debut was in stark contrast to youtd going press secretary shaun speiers who the tay after the inauguration scolded the press on the audience. It quickly became the inspiration for Melissa Mccarthys impression of spicer on saturday night live. All right. Let me put this whole russian thing to bed once and for all. Trump is innocent. How do we know . Because he told us so, period. Reporter in an interview on hannity, he said it was time for a fresh start. It was my opinion that i give anthony and sarah a clean slate to start with. After stints at Goldman Sachs and his own investment firm, he began hosting a weekly finance show and making appearances on the fox business show. Its where early in the 2016 cam haine he was actually a vocal opponent of donald trump. He brings it up every 15 seconds. Mr. President , if youre listening, i apologize for the 50th time. It will fall on Anthony Scaramucci and sarah Huckabee Sanders. I think its important for me on my first day standing up here that i dont go in that direction, so im not going to answer that question. Reporter sekulow said hes close personal friends with the president s lawyer jay sekulow and has a relationship with his other key counsel, so that will bring consistency about the russia investigation. But whats unknown is how hell work with Reince Priebus. H said the two are like brothers, although, sometimes they like to rough each other up. Anthony . Errol barnett, thank you. Were joined by jake sherman, Senior Writer and coauthor of politicos play book. Good morning. Good morning. I want to start with Jeff Sessions and the latest news that the Washington Post is reporting about hymn. How do you think this affects things . The problem is meeting with the Russian Ambassador is not bad thing. Testifying that he didnt and it comes out that he did is a bad thing. Thats a lot of speculation going on ryan now. The president s clearly not happy with him. Hes no longer in the room with him. How does he go forward . Its hard to see on a personal level and professional level. The president values loyalty and Jeff Sessions in the president s eyes has not been loyal to him. Along those lines, it would be the a. G. s responsibility. What does that mean . Look. If donald trump wants to push Jeff Sessions out,s going to have a huge fight on his hands to get an attorney general, something he cannot afford right now. We even seen Senate Republicans increasingly skeptical of donald trump willing to question him. These are mtd. You talked about loyalty. Yep. You said i love the president , im loyal to the president. I can make two points that are in direct conflict of each other. Number one, hes going to be a good one for the president. Hes loyalty. He talked about hitting foul shots in a top coat. He has no experience. The president has filled his staff with staff who have no experience or experience in other quorums. Hes director of communications, not just press secretary. Is this another reset . Its not a purposeful reset. Sean spicer was expected to stay on. It was thought he would. Is there a manage to more of the washingtonian types like Reince Priebus . Ryan priebuss status is up in the air. Its a way of saying things are changing and youd better get in line. Theres been talk the president has been shopping around for a new chief of staff. What essentially is this sayinging do you through . I think theres a lot of intrigue without a lot of shakeup. Theres been stories in the newspapers by People Like Us and there hasnt been a shakeup. It will be difficult to find a prs who will do it. Why would you work for a person who doesnt follow any of your advice . One of the things were going to see neck week, Jared Kushner goes to capitol hill and you have donald trump jr. And Paul Manafort who have, i guess, willing live given some documents. What do you expect well see . I would expect he would be agitated. I think itd going to each of the week. He has a huge agenda. This is going to take up a lot of the time and background. Appreciate it. The Minneapolis Police chief is out after one of her officers shot and killed justine damond. The deputy chief and chief of staff. We dont want you as our mayor of minneapolis anymore. We would like for you to move out of our city.
