commitment to transparency. >> thank you very much for that very interesting report. that's it from me. thanks for watching. i'm wolf blitzer in "the situation room." erin burnett "outfront" starts right now. next, wortds of wd of war. president trump calls iran's revolutionary guard terrorists. a top official tonight calling that tantamount to a declaration of war. plus, major developments of the special counsel's russia investigation. former chief of staff reince priebus taking questions from robert mueller's team and the president says he loves puerto rico, but still tonight, 90% of residents there have no power. let's go "outfront." good evening. i'm erin burnett. "outfront" tonight, a war of words. that's what iran's top nuclear chief says president trump is doing today. trump calling iran a murderous

regime and formally labbe lly le elite military core of iran terrorist group. this is big because tonight, the head of iran's nuclear agency says what president trump did today was quote tantamount to a declaration of war. >> the revolutionary guard is the iranian supreme leader's corrupt personal terror force and militia. i am authorizing the treasury department to further sanction the entire islamic revolutionary guard core for its support for terrorism. >> now, the president is also moving to go back on the biggest u.s. foreign policy deal in at least 40 years. that is of course the iranian nuclear deal. declaring today that iran is thot in compliance with what was president obama's signature foreign policy deal. >> the iranian regime has committed multiple violations of the agreement. the iranian regime has also

intimidated international inspectors into not using the full inspection authorities that the agreement calls for. iranian officials and military leaders have repeatedly claimed they will not allow inspectors on to military sites. >> if all of that is true, and a problem, then why are the president's own top advisers saying that iran is in compliance with the deal? >> iran is in material breach of the agreement and i do believe the agreement to date has delayed the development of a nuclear capability by iran. >> my view on the nuclear deal is they are in technical compliance of the nuclear arrangement. >> so what does the president know that his own advisers don't? the president zeroed in today on an infamous iranian chant to explain his move. >> given the regime's murderous past and present, we should not

take lightly its sinister vision for the future. the regime's two favorite chants are death to america and death to israel. >> the president is right. death to america is an iranian chant. i've heard iranians chanting that at a political rally. this is what i heard on the eve of the 2013 presidential election in tehran. one key thing to note here though, the hard line candidate who was there on that podium lead iing the chant that you ar hearing lost the election. jim shuuto is "outfront." iran's nuclear chief says trump is declare iing war tonight. >> that's right, familiar previous iran negotiator, nuclear negotiator here, this gets to the important of the

revolutionary guard core. it's the regime's own army. they have their own navy. the little ships that have been harassing u.s. ships in the persian gulf and tremendous business importance to the regime. they have their own businesses. they take it very seriously. the trump administration make ing a bit of a technical play here in that they designated them a terrorist organization under the treasury department as opposed to the state department which is not quite the equivale equivalent. whether iran accepts that is another question, but clearly, iran not happy with this. you heard that from the foreign minister, the chief negotiator for this deal. he tweeted a series of tweets, but this is one saying that allegations, threats and profanity will never intimidate iranian. trump will eventually discover this as every predecessor, certainly putting on a brave face. i can tell you, i know that you have many of america's european allies who are also part of this deal, communicating with iran now, trying to in effect keep

them in this agreement which iran's president said they'll do going forward. >> and the it's important to note, right, this isn't a deal between the u.s. and iran. there's a lot of other countries involved. the u.s. gets out. all they lose is a view into the nuclear program they had in the deal. you've got this talk of war, which is significant and now, the president is saying iran is not compliant with the deal itself. we just heard two of his top advisers say iran is compliant. so, what's the truth? >> every one of his top adviser, in addition to that, u.s. swell jensen intelligence agencies which are in charge of monitoring this along with the iaea, which would supervise this, sends in the inspectors. they say iran is in compliance, so when the president said today that iran has had multiple violations of agreement, just doesn't stand up to the facts. what he can say is that from his point of view, it was not a good agreement and for the other things that the u.s. wants to deal with here, whether the

missile program, terrorists, et cetera, which were not part of this deal, yes, you could rightly criticize iran, but to be clear, those were not part of this negotiation. >> right and getting out doesn't necessarily give you leverage on those issues. thanks very much. and now, dave gergen -- and was a part with john kerry of this deal itself. and mark dubowitz. the two of you know more than pretty much anybody except for more zariff and kerry themselves. was this the right move? what the president did today. going against at least the public utterances of his top advisers? is. >> it's a huge and dangerous gamble on the part of president trump. he's gambling with what may lead to conflict down the road. to me, the big, there was a big sprid hidden in this.

we understood he was thot going not going to certify that iran was in compliance and would turn it over to congress to figure out where to go from here and today, he really raised the bar. he said i'm not only not going to certify, but i'm telling the congress and our allies unless we get a new deal unless we go back to the table and get a negotiate a new deal with iran that meets my satisfaction, we're going to terminate the deal. we're going to terminate the deal. that is going make a much tougher future for where we go from here. the united states is now solidly isolated from its friends, allies. the other nations that have signed this deal. six other nations that signed it. and when the uk and germany and france came out and said they're sticking with the deals, they are not sticking with the united states. they really underscored major countries. just didn't have the support of major countries to go back

anderand renegotiate. >> that's the crucial question, right? we need to be clear. this is not a deal between the united states and iran. there are other countries involved. it goes, the deal goes on without the united states. if the u.s. gets out, it loses any ability to see inside iran's nuclear program. you lose leverage. forget whether you like the deal, it is the deal. so what is the point? >> erin, i think the point is to make it very clear to the europeans that the united states is not going to prepare to live with a deal that gives iran pathways to nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles because the restrictions go away over time. i think that signal has been sent which is why the reason macron has come out on three occasions and says as long as the united states keeps the deal, france is prepared to start to examine other issues to supplement or compliment the deal including dealing with the -- iran's missile program and their destructive regional behavior. so you've seen a shift in the

french position for sure from a position of keep it while others have been saying nick nix it to a position today where the french are saying we're prepared to fix it as long as the united states under donald trump is not going to -- >> do these other countries as mark accurately portraying this, that they care so much that the u.s. stays in, they'll do whatever trump wants to keep the u.s. in? >> no, i think you saw clear responses from a number of leaders around the world. you also hear privately them about their concerns, about how reckless trump's tamts about the iran deal have been. i think mark touched on a key point here. that is not consistent with what trump said, which is to keep and maintain the deal. i think everybody would like to address ballistic missiles. we would have in the deal. if deal making was about getting the art of the perfect, we would have. but the question is, are we better off without this deal or with? i think most people in the national security team in the trump administration, leaders

around the world and in the national security community feel we're better off with the deal. >> you just heard the chairman of the joint chiefs saying i believe the agreement has delayed the development of a nuclear capability by iran. that's pretty significant. i don't want to relitigate the deal, but whatever you want to say about it, he's saying it's delayed the nuclear capability. isn't that what designed to do? >> jan and her team talked about the fact this deal was going to cut off all pathways to nuclear weapons and now, we're acknowledging the reality, which is it delays it and delay is important. it's important because it gives time for this administration to work with our allies. >> i think they were clear they were going to delay it. >> and you know, holding her feet to the fire on this repeatedly. they always said delay. >> secretary kerry said permanently cut off path ways. i think the more important thing, let's keep the deal.

st try to strengthen the deal. build consensus with our european allies. i think the headliner is let's roll out a comprehensive policy to deal with iran's destructive behavior which i know jen and david and everybody agrees needs to be done. >> wu bu that wasn't what he announced today. he said he would rip up the deal, get rid of the deal. so what he created was a dangerous and wrereckless tight rope walk that puts members of congress and our allies and partners in a difficult spot. no one is suggesting it's giving us more leverage. >> and david, do you have seriously do you take the head of the iran's nuclear agency? saying that this was tantamount to a declaration of war and by that, i'm referring specifically not to the president's decision about the deal itself, but his

treasury labeling the iranian guard core a terror organization. they're saying that's tantamount to war. >> i don't think we should take that as representing all of iran. there are different power centers in iran. we need to listen to all of them before we know what direction they're going in. so you know, i don't think we're on the edge of war in that sense and this was a declaration of war. what i do believe is there's a distinction and what if the president had said, we're going to keep the deal. but now we want to launch a separate negotiation with our allies and with iran to figure out you know, how do we hanel this when the deal expires. what do we do about the iran's behavior in the middle east. those were very important to us going forward. i think we could have all said that's fine. but that's not what he's saying. as jen points out, what he's saying until the deal is renegotiating, we're getting out of it. we're throwing it away and that

is what scares a lot of allies and that is going to unleash iran, not ten to 12 year, it's going to unleash iran quickly. >> jen, do you think that's true, that iran would get out of this deal and get on that fast track to a nuclear bomb? >> well, i think it's a risk and look, the situation we have now at this point is the hope that members of congress will find their higher power here and not be partisan and not put snap back sanctions in place because that would be violation of the deal. if that happen, it could be a domino effect with our partners who have been in the deal and with iran and then where are we left? not in a better negotiating position. we're left without monitoring and verification tool, without visibility into what iran is doing. i don't think that's better than where we were a few years ago. >> and next, trump tears into obamacare, taking another the tep to kill it. is he determined to take down obama's legacy? and breaking news this hour on

the russia probe. reince priebus interviewed by the essential counsel, robert mueller's team, today. that just wrapping up. we have the breaking new frs that and more accusers coming forward to talk about harvey weinstein. i'm going to speak to a woman who worked for him. she called him out publicly seven years ago. but nobody heard. when you're close to the people you love, does psoriasis ever get in the way of a touching moment? if you have moderate to severe psoriasis, you can embrace the chance of completely clear skin with taltz. taltz is proven to give you a chance at completely clear skin. with taltz, up to 90% of patients had a significant improvement of their psoriasis plaques. in fact, 4 out of 10 even achieved completely clear skin. do not use if you are allergic to taltz.

tonight, president trump making his biggest move yet to dismantle obamacare, ending the subsy dies that help lower income americans pay for health insurance u. tonight, trump says the move will help improve health care. >> what we have to do is come up with great health care. now that's what i did partially yesterday. that's going to cover a big segment. now, if the democrats were smart, what they'd do is come and negotiate something where people could really get the kind of health care that they deserve being citizens of our great country. >> "outfront" tonight, steven moore, senior economic adviser to the trump campaign and former obama white house health policy adviser. zeke, about 6 million americans, just under, receive these subsidies. people who make less than $30,000 or for a family of four, less than $61,000. just to give people an

understanding, if you have a deductible of $3,600, these can make sure you're paying only a few hundred dollars. what is the impact of this move? >> well, it means have insurance companies aren't going to be compensated for the subsidies to help pay the deductibles and copays. as a consequence, they're going to raise their premiums and the most recent mate is that they'll go up 23%. lots of people also with the premiums going up, a lot of people will stop buying insurance that's estimated about 1 million people will stop buying insurance. so those are two big effects then because the premiums go up, the federal government has to give people sub sidies to help buy health insurance and the forecast government's bill will go up by $200 billion over ten years. so it's like a triple whammy. pretty bad policy and it does not answer what the president has said, which is to give people more choice and better health care. >> what do you say, steve?

>> well, that's what it's all about. for trump. is is more, a lot more choices. a lot more competition, which is what you don't have under obamacare. what zeke was just talking about, my goodness, people might have to pay higher premiums and people might drop out of the insurance market. that's what's happening now under obamacare. i just got back from arizona. a tate where premiums have doubled in just the last two years. you've got these exploding costs. the reality that some in the media have not be covering is that obamacare is in financial collapse and within two or three -- >> that is totally -- steve, steve. >> let me finish on this. >> that is total -- >> but it is wrong. >> when you have people, what you have under the situation that you all developed is you have healthy people dropping out of the insurance market. and sick people signing up. that's the reason that the premiums are going up so much. the promise was that the average

family was going to save $2500 on their health insurance. i mean, i talk to people all the time saying i can't afford it anymore. >> let's get to the facts. both the congressional budget office and standard & poor's have said that prior to this announcement by the president, the exchanges are stable and they're fine. >> standard & poor's, they said to me this year, we'd start to see those increases coming way down. >> add to that, add to that, that in 2018, in county is bare without an insurance company in it and the fact is, premiums have gone up because before the insurance companies didn't know who was in the market. now we know who's in the market and it doesn't add to get healthy, young people buying insurance to tell them we're not going to enforce the mandate. it's a joke and to bad mouth the exchange. that doesn't help get people in. and the president has been doing that consistently. >> a question on this issue of sub sidies, are they helping mae

health insurance more affordable or enabling health insurance companies to plump up the cost because people are getting money and essentially, charged even more. >> no, the insurance companies are limited by how much they can raise by the maximum on their mlr. >> we're talking about just overall. if i'm giving someone $1,000, great, i can start there. that's from uncle sam. >> no, that's not the way the subsidies work. the insurance companies bid for people to buy coverage and that includes people who aren't getting subsidies. people who make 400% of the poverty line or about $98,000 and they bid and then the government comes in and says we're going to provide subsidies. balanced to the second lowest silver plan. and that means no one knows when they start bidding what the second lowest silver plan is. so they can't just bump up how much they're going to charge

people. that's just totally false. >> before you jump in, steve, let me play what the president says because he obviously sees this differently. here's how he put it today. >> that money was a subsidy, a payoff to insurance companies. the subsidy is really a subsidy for the insurance company. that's not going to people. that's making insurance companies rich. >> so steve, does he misunderstand? he just explained it totally differently. >> no, it's a bailout of the insurance companies. and the chanexchanges. one of the central promises was that obamacare wasn't going to add to the budget deficit. remember that one? that was another lie. now we've got to put another ten or $15 billion behind the exchanges this year and i guarantee you if we're here next year, it's going to be 20 billion because the costs are escalating so much. >> i'm not going to let you tell lies.

you're telling a lie here. [ inaudible ] >> you saved $100 billion on what? >> first of all, everyone says we saved $100 billion and we saved more because health care inflation has been pretty steady over the last five years. and the congressional budget office keeps ratcheting down how much actually obamacare is costing. the second point. >> okay. hold on. steve, respond to the point. >> if you're right that the inflation ragt is down for health care, why are people's premiums going up 25 and 50 and 100%? >> why is that? why are premiums going up? >> i will explain, steve, if you give me a second. >> go. >> the reason the premiums are going up is not because u underlying health care costs are going up. the reason is because of the

pool. how many sick people versus how many healthy people. that's not about health care inflation, steve and you seem confused about that. it's about the pool. what most people care about -- >> would you let me finish. >> that's going way up. they don't care about the overall cost of the whole health care system. >> okay, zek ere, go ahead. >> steve, what president trump just did is going to send premiums up an average of 23%. that's hardly lowering them and it is not, this comes the cost sharing subsidies are not as the president said, a bailout to the insurance companies. >> aren't they holding up 20 something percent on average? if you're geing rid of subsidies and premiums are the same, that would seem unbalanced, just back of the envelope cheaper. >> no, you don't have that correct. premiums have been going up because there are more sick people because the president has bad mouthed the exchange, said

we're not enforcing the mandate and healthy people are dropping out as a result. the pool is sicker. that is premium. on top of that, the -- on top of that, steve, let me finish. on top of that because the cost sharing subsidies are being eliminated, it would be an additional 23%. and let me tell you something, the people who are really hit by this are people who are paying out of pocket full price and getting no subsidies. because people who are getting subsidies are somewhat buffered. >> thank you both. thank you both so very much. >> thank you. and next, breaking news, former chief of staff reince priebus just interviewed today by bob mueller mueller's. who from the white house is next. we have the breaking news. pamela brown is break iing the story and the harvey weinstein sex scandal growing. the list of accusers, longer. a former employee of weinstein "outfront" tonight with her

special counsel investigation, robert mueller's team. that interview happened today and what we have been told by people familiar with the matter is that what they're particularly interested in when it comes to reince previous is what he knew in interpreters of the fi the fires of james comey. we don't know what was up. but presumably, that was the focus because reince priebus was there. he was in the oval office during some of those interactions between president trump and james comey and he talked to james comey as well when he was the chief of staff. he left the white house a couple of months ago. but this certainly indicates that the investigation is progressing that they have now interviewed the former chief of staff to the president of the united states. it is significant and that regard and this is really just the beginning in terms of

interviews of current and former white house staffers. >> and where are they on that panel? who is left when you talk about the big fish still to be interviewed? where are they on this? >> well, there seems to be several people. we know in the last couple of weeks, these interviews have begun. he has, mueller's team has interviewed general kellogg about michael flynn. and his time at the and the circumstances surrounding the firing of flynn as national security adviser. he has been interviewed. he was interviewed in recent weeks. we expect sean spicer to be interviewed, as well as communications director hope hicks among others. i'm told by a person familiar with the matter that the expectation is that at least in this first round of people, that the interviews will wrap up by

the end of this month. the white house is is very anxious for this investigation to wrap up. they view this as a cloud hanging over president. >> thank you so much as always. breaking so much of this story as she's done all the way alopg. james kelly is we me now, retired fbi along with paul, our legal analyst. james, this is the most senior member of trump's inner team. what does this say about where this investigation is? that he is now interviewed. >> there's two channels. the current intelligence and the criminal. we know in the counterintelligence end, we know that russia attempted to influence the election. now, did any of the upper echelon trump transition team members and now priebus is no longer with the administration, but did they have any knowledge of that? the second piece is the criminal end. it could go back to a violation of the logan act. 1799, it says that private

citizens, which a president-elect still is in this transition team still is, did they have any contact with a foreign especially a hostile nation, with regards to effecting u.s. policy before the president became president. those are the two angles. >> when we talk about priebus, he was the cheap of staff when the president fired jim come in. some of these things the president said in the oval office with lavrov, but this is crucial. that priebus is, what information he gave him about comey. >> it's critical and shows that mueller has been quite methodical in the way he's conducting this investigation. he started on the outside perimeter and he's working his way up toward the central figure. the president himself. i mean, to be interview iing th former chief of staff about the comey firing indicate to me i think that he's now focusing on the top people in the pyramid.

that doesn't mean the investigation is going to end immediately, but i think it means that it's moving quickly. because and efficiently because of mueller. >> so, let me ask you both though, because priebus at least publicly when he was asked about collusion, has been adamant there was none. that's the central question here we still don't know the answer. he's been adamant about it. here he is. >> so no collusion whatsoever. not to see anybody involved with trump and anybody involved with russia in the 2016 campaign. >> no. collusion. story is a joke. i don't think, honestly don't believe there's a lot of people out there that actually believe that campaign people were sitting on telephones and having meetings and passing secret messages trying to figure out how to mess around with the election. >> priebus was head of the rnc. the republican national committee during most of the campaign. so the fact, i just don't think

he would have been in the position to know if there was collusion going on. i'm not surprised. >> and that's not just him coming out lying and it's not him saying it from any knowledge. he was in a position. >> he was an outsider to the trump campaign at that point. >> that's where this is the usual point though because if there was collusion, the crucial point one of the points that would have happened was during the campaign, whether it's voter re registration, whatever it is, he wouldn't have seen it at that time. >> we're conditioned that where there's smoke, there's generally fire. it pains me to say this because part of it is emanated from my former organization. the leaks. you had leaks on carter flynn, paul manafort and they don't have a smoking gun on the president and that's what tells me, man, if they had something, we would have known it. >> we'll sea. what comes out of manafort, who seems to be the center from the criminal perspective. thanks very much to both of you and next, another harvey

weinstein accuser worked for the mogul. and her story is something you need to hear. you'll hear it "outfront" next. and trump at it again. the president blaming puerto rico while sending victims of the storm this message tonight. >> i love the people of puerto rico. we're going help them.

listed women accusing harvey

weinstein of abuse, four accusing he raped them. there are more coming out every day. "outfront" now, ivana lowell. she worked for weinstein and wrote about being harassed by him. that's not something she p put out in the past week, everybody. this is something she wrote about in 2010. thank you so much for coming on to talk about your story. so weinstein harassed you multiple times. >> yes. >> wow worked for him for about a year, but i want to start when you first met him. you met him at a restaurant. send yous over champagne, sure, i'll give you a job. come to my office. you go in to figure out what the job is. you're essentially hired. then what happens? >> well, the first time i went into his office, there were several assistants buzzing

arou around, all pretty, all women. and harvey was swrus introducing me to them and trying to figure out what role i could have in the company. and where i would fit in. and then we went down for some lump lunch to discuss everything i would do and what i would do and it was decided i would work in anything literary. my parents were writers and he knew i was educated. he said, okay, you'll be in charge of everything books. which i thought was great. i loved to read. >> dream job. >> absolute dream job. then we went back upstairs to his office and this time, the assistants were gone. i went in. and he shut the door. but there was a secretary outside his door answering the phone. so i was slightly okay, i thought we had this interview, then harvey got behind his desk. he said do you like having oral

sex? and was just like what kind of question is that? are you joking? i chose to believe that this is some kind of test, sense of humor. he edged towards me and i kind of edged away. and then we had this cat and mouse game of i was sort of moving around his desk and then he was sort of getting nearer and i just was thinking, what could he do if he caught me? there's someone right outside. the walls are paper thin. if i screamed, he's not going to be able to do anything. but it was still incredibly unsettling. this went on for about several minutes. sealed like an hour. but several minutes. then the phone buzzed. and he had someone more important to deal with. i kind of just slipped out thinking oh, my god, that was an

interesting day. at work the first day. >> and yet, it was your dream job. understandably, you started working requester him t harassment continued. he came to your home, you were lucky you had a friend there with you. it's a disturbing story. >> no, the first time, it was actually the day after i started working for him. and i was at home and it was late. and my buzzer, my doorbell rang and actually my door man announced it. it's mr. weinstein coming up. oh. okay. and very quickly, he was at my door and he came barging in to my apartment and just sort of swept right past me and went straight into the bedroom. lay down and said, oh my god, i'm so tired. i need a massage.

>> just barged into your apartment. >> just lay there and for the next sort of 20 minutes, he just that had this diatribe of compliants. f'ing about this president, that smuk who screwed him over. how he and his brother were going to get revenge. he was venting on my bed. i was sitting on my bedroom chair just perched like a nervous cat. oh, when is -- is he ever going to leave? >> you wrote about a lot of this. in 2010. and at that, so just to be clear, that's seven years ago. does it frustrate you that nothing happened then? what has change d? now, all of a sudden, everyone is coming out with their stories. you came out seven years ago. >> i came out seven years ago. not only did i come out and i was very lenient. i was still nervous.
