which this president has used to his advantage. charlie, great to see you. i hope the president gives them hell. thanks for being with us. former fbi director james kallstrom among our guests. good night. kennedy: this is a fox news alert and potentially major development in the nuclear standoff with north korea. according to london's financial times news tape three u.s. prisoners held by the north korean regime are on the verge of release. according to the report the three prisoners are in a hotel in pyongyang after years of hard labor and one of north korea's brute pal prison camps. the state department has not yet confirmed the claim but say they are doing everything they can to get them out. this comes just a few weeks before the president is scheduled to sit down and meet

with kim jong-un. the president demanding the dictator give up all his nuclear weapons. 18 gop house members have formally nominated the president for the nobel peace prize. does he deserve it already? kristen tate is here, and tom shillue. and the media director sat campus reform, cab phillips returns. kim jong-un has apparently agree to release these three hostages. does that mean there will be a humanitarian element to some of the oversight in the talks with north korea? >> i think a lot of people myself included are cautiously optimistic. we have seen this the past where

they have given concessions. this is bigger than other ones. but it's certainly a victory for president trump and being able to claim, we are coming from a position of power. the obama a i today today i t d. people are saying it's obama's policies that are taking effect that are doing it. i think a lot of people are not willing to give president trump credit for this. they made up their minds about whether he deserves credit. kennedy: though this could be a big win for this administration, even with those hostages being released, you can call them

prisoners or anything you want. you can see there would be strains of resistance along the left. >> absolutely. i don't want to jump the gun on the peace prize. imagine giving the president a prize before he did anything? a lot of people are saying we can't trust them. at least they are putting up more than we expected. so you go in cautiously optimistic. people do have trouble giving the president credit. remember fonzie couldn't say wrong? they can't sacred. kennedy: what do you want those people to do? do you want them to linker in camps? >> i wonder how the family of

otto warmbier feels about this. kennedy: we are on the precipice of something monumental. the president has said he's not going to divulge exactly what he'll be asking for, and there are still sanctions in place. so when do we know that this exchange with north korea has been successful? >> it will take time for sure. trump is expected to bring home the hostages on the same day as the u.s.-north korean summit. imagine the visual of that. and the folks on the left, they have to give him credit. he's been killing it on the economy. if he can pull this off this will be the biggest foreign policy win we had in decades. if he doesn't get the nobel peace prize it devalues the prize itself. kennedy: i think you can argue

strategic patience, they haven't done anything but exacerbate an already tough situation in north korea. because of that they should take his nobel prize back. >> if this happened in the obama presidency they would rename it and call it the obama peace prize. kennedy: the panel is going to stick around. but first another big day in the russia investigation. president trump threatening to get personally involved in the fight between the freedom caucus and the justice department. as you know, conservative lawmakers have threatened to impeach deputy attorney general rod rosenstein unless he releases documents about surveillance on campaign members. rosenstein said this in defense. >> the department of justice is not going to be extorted. we'll do what's required buyer the rule of law.

any threats anybody makes will not affect the way we do our job. kennedy: today the president tweeted, a rigged system. they don't want to turn over documents to congress. why so much redacting? why such unequal justice? at some point i will have no choice but to use the powers granted to the presidency and get involved. let's talk about the president's grab bag. what can he pull out. he has limited options. at the top of it two fire rosenstein. you can see the response already, obstruction of justice, right? but he does have the power to do that under article 2, so long as it's not a corrupt motive. the conflict between the doj

saying we need to keep the investigation tight and congress wanting documents. at the heart of it, this august 2017 memorandum came after mueller was appointed and it limited the scope to what mueller was to investigate. it came out in the manafort case in was a motion filed. manafort challenged the scope of the investigation. and the doj redacted the document. that would be critical to know, especially in light of these questions we talked about last night about what trump could potentially be asked. what is this special counsel investigating? kennedy: i don't understand why they what with hold this -- why they would with hold this information. if you show people the scope of the investigation. supporters of the president would have an easier time

letting mueller finish the investigation which i think it's easy to -- i think it's important to do. with hold * information whether it's this or on the email server investigation. >> the first memorandum was released publicly. that was in may. this is a subsequent memorandum expanding what the scope was. if you are going to release the first one, why not show us what the investigation is about now? kennedy: it almost seems like rod rosenstein, once he knew jeff sessions reduced himself was working with james comey to get comey fired so they could launch the special counsel in order to take down the president. am i being too conspiracy theoretical? >> he wrote the memo that went to sessions, and that is one of

the bases for the firing of comey. he's also a witness in the obstruction of justice because of that memo. how can he be at the top of mueller directing him about the investigation when he's a critical witness in the obstruction of justice. kennedy: the whole thing is so strange. i hate the idea that wee continually appoint special counsel for this. i think congress has to do its job. the inspector general has to be allowed to finish. the inspector general has been very fruitful. >> we just got a report about mccabe. that was a report that got him fired. if heed finds something about rod rosenstein, that would be a reason to fire him as well. now there is other investigations with respect to the doj. i think the president should take a step back.

i don't they are he should be intervening with there is document request by congress. kennedy: i understand he feels like he has been wrongfully targeted in this special investigation and he has done nothing wrong. when you have done nothing wrong, i understand that people get defensive wait's huge distraction. but you can see the distraction is getting so much worse if the president is too heavy handed. >> i think this investigation has to wrap up. unfortunately i don't think it will. we have the manafort trial that still has to happen. we have these cooperating witnesses. i think it would be business four our country, the markets and our president if this would wrap up. kennedy: meantime, big shake-ups on president trump's legal team.

ty cobb and the mustache out. and it makes you wonder, is the trump team preparing for the inevitable? rudy juliany shot that down. >> the questions almost cry out, they don't have a quaibs they are desperate and they don't want to. wasn't this an investigation of russian collusion? well, they lost that one. not true. kennedy: are president trump, rudy and emmett flood gearing up for war?

ty cobb had a different approach that was more conciliatory. it seems as though this legal team will be acting more like defense lawyers. what do you think? >> you made me think about something about the mustache. only one mustache is allowed at the time. but i think that it is a good sign that he's getting fighters in here. the president is going to fight anyway. you want your lawyer to be fighting moyer than you. you want to have your lawyers be just as tough or tougher than you. you need michael avenatti. he probably watching the monday shows and says that's what i need. an obnoxious guy who is a pain in the butt.

he wants his people to be the pain and maybe he won't have to. kennedy: was that approach not working? is it a sign the president is not going to sit down? >> they need to be more aggressive. up until now cobb's attitude has been we know there has been no collusion we have nothing to hide. but this investigation is not about collusion. this is a bloodless coup organized bipartisan hacks under mueller to take down the president. how many tens of millions of dollars do we have to dumb into this. kennedy: i understand people want to engineer the outcome to do the opposite of what's going on with the mueller investigation. but that could go side waist. -- could go sideways.

what does emmet flood bring to the table? >> i think he's going to advise him not to sit down at the table. kennedy: it sounds like giuliani wants him to. he's a politician, the mid-terms are coming up. we have to go. the panel is returning later in the show. they are that good. nancy pelosi, she is not that good. she just made a main announcement about her future on capitol hill. is she going? i will ask richard fowler. and michelle obama has a ridiculous comment. wait until you hear it. it's coming up. stay here. allergies with sinus congestion and pressure? you won't find relief here. go to the pharmacy counter for powerful claritin-d. while the leading allergy spray relieves 6 symptoms... claritin-d relieves 8, including sinus congestion and pressure.

claritin-d relieves more. money managers are pretty much the same. all but while some push high commission investment products, fisher investments avoids them. some advisers have hidden and layered fees. fisher investments never does. and while some advisers are happy to earn commissions from you whether you do well or not, fisher investments fees are structured so we do better when you do better. maybe that's why most of our clients come from other money managers. fisher investments. clearly better money management.

kennedy: nancy pelosi is not going anywhere. the house minority leader told the boston globe tuesday we'll win, i will run for speaker. i have no intention of walk away from that table. rumor has it the democrats want nancy out. and a fox news poll shows 54% of

people found her unfavorably. and elizabeth our be is leading the field for potential democratic candidates in new hampshire. are they setting themselves up for another embarrassing elect cycle? with me now the host of the richard fowler show. he's dashing saturday night. >> thank you for the compliment. i think it's too early to look at presidential polls. this time in 2014 it was saying hillary clinton was ahead and bernie sanders won the new hampshire primary. on the nancy pelosi thing, there are two things happening. either democrats will focus on the issues and two maybe she is head faking and she wants

republicans to spend all their money buying ads against nancy pelosi and she announces she is retiring and all their ad space goes to waste. the democrats are ahead in a generic ballot. kennedy: i can't stand the idea of the generic ballot. support for democrats has been wage on that thing. >> that's fair. but with that being said, democratic fundraising numbers are up. all indicators point to the fact that democrats -- kennedy: i have no doubt republicans can screw everything up and lose the mid-terms. hit is not on their side. they only had a win on tax reform. they can do all sorts of stuff wrong. but the point is nancy pelosi is not head faking. she is going to hold on to

power. if she does this, i know she is in love with her fundraising. >> it would require that her caucus votes for her. you are putting the cart before the house. the democrats have to win back the house of representatives. that's our focus. talking about how prescription drugs are too expensive. and republicans are talking about russian collusion. we are having conversations about prescription drugs. kennedy: are you excited about three american hostages being released. i have got to ask you about what michelle obama said today. watch this. >> i know that you are me. and if i can be standing here as

your forever first lady, then you can do everything you put your mind to. kennedy: barbara bush just passed. is she really our forever first lady? >> i think the title sticks with whoever was your first lady. i think that title sticks with them. kennedy: there is a difference between a first lady and the first lady. she is using the definite article. >> i don't think that's what she said. kennedy: next thing you know he will run for senate. >> i don't think -- she made it clear she is not running for political office. she is before 8,000 students who have decided to pursue higher

education, and something admirable she started while first lady. kennedy: college doesn't mean you will get a job, it just means you will be in debt. she is barking up the wrong tree. you are my first man. but we have to rise to this together. thank you. coming up, a new lawsuit looking to make big pharma pay for the opioid epidemic. but will that strategy work? after more than a century the boy scouts announced two major changes that will forever transform the organization. i'm all for inclusion. but some things should be left alone. stay right here. -♪ he's got legs of lumber and arms of steel ♪ ♪ he eats a bowl of hammers at every meal ♪ ♪ he holds your house in the palm of his hand ♪

kennedy: there are connects between the opioid crisis and cannabis. the highest number of respondents ever have less and less of a problem with you getting high. 63% support cannabis legalization. there is no fuzzy math here. it's very straightforward. attorney general jeff sessions and his anti-pot crusade is on

the losing side of the argument. an anti-opioid bill. there are elements and amendments that mostly center on non-habit forming alternatives and stopping drugs at the border. two studies show a direct correlation between marijuana and opioid use. states with medical pot laws have shown a 5% -- a 25%

reduction in addiction. the more we study cannabis the more it can be used to study and fight addiction. inner cities and rural communities are hit hardest by supply side combat that are proven addictive. at some point jeff sessions has to go. hopefully the next a.g. will be a force for good and not a cesspool of backyard policy. healthcare premiums have gone up. some experts attribute it to the increase in drug addiction treatment. a lawsuit claims that people who

haven't used opioids are paying for those who are. keller llc is one of the three firms suing opioid manufacturers. there are a lot of health crises driving up insurance premiums. not to mention obamacare. is this just a big cash grab? >> unfortunately it's far more serious than that. the distinction that's critical to draw is the distinction that this is an epidemic that was single handedly created by the opioid companies as at result of fraud. they came in starting in the 1990 and upended medical research and practice about how

we used opioids. previously used only for end of life care. and recovering from inpatient surgery. after the 90s and after a lot of fraudulent practices details in the our complaints. the medical thinking changed as at result of lies these companies told doctors and their patients. that led to the spike in opioid prescriptions. kennedy: what if you have doctors say it's not fraud, it's not lies, this is the data we had. and this how we were forced to deal with pain management because we face lawsuits from the other side if we didn't deal with pain appropriately. >> understandably the students we filed today are not filed against doctors. they are filed against the opioid manufacturers and distriwithoutors for having created out of whole cloth the

data you are describing. the way a lot of doctors were educated in the 90s and early 2000s were from groups who claim to be independent. kennedy: i understand there is a lot of p.r. that goes into public education, but it doesn't mean you goat sue entire industries and jack up insurance -- malpractice insurance fees so doctors can't afford to stay in business. at some point we have to have personal responsibility. you pointed out one person every 16 minutes dies from an opioid overdose. one person every six minutes dies from alcohol poisoning. one person every 7 minutes dies from complications from diabetes. because people are eating and

drink and putting things their bodies and not taking personal responsibility. >> there is a clear distinction. the vast majority of opioid deaths we see even when they are from street drugs are in patients who initially started with prescriptions prescribed by doctors. kennedy: a majority of drug overdose deaths have to do with people putting more than one drug into their body like heath ledger. >> in the opioid context the stats don't bear that out. but also from patients taking opioids and haven't turned to any other illicit substances. the real difference is we are filing these lawsuits to recover on behalf of consumers the costs

they have already been forced to pay. kennedy: and we have been forced to pay a lot more in healthcare costs because people who suffer from obesity have $1,4. >$1,400 per year more than average in insurance costs and we are forced to pay for that gap. i don't think your logic can be applied. it looks like you are going after entire industries to enrich yourselves to the tune of billions of dollars. it reminds me of that old joke, why don't sharks eat attorneys. professional courtesy. >> it's a libertarian principle that where -- kennedy: the libertarian principle is personal responsibility. and you are taking that away from people. i will be curious to see how this plays out.

it adds a new and interesting element to the conversation. travis, thank you. >> thank you. kennedy: the boy scouts are not doing heroin, but they are going to drop gender from their name and start accepting girls. the new name will be scouts bsa. well, not everyone is thrilled with their outreach efforts, including the girl scouts ceo who says her organization was blinds sided by the move and will be ramping up membership efforts. will the boy scouts become the go-to club for girls? my party panel returns. i think this is so absurd. it goes to show where we are.

it's okay to have boys and girls do different things every once in a while. >> if you make boy scouts coed, it's a day cam. the boy scouts teaches them how to be good men. >> i was a shy and awkward kid. girl scouts helped me come out of my shell. kennedy: they are life skills not being taught in those snowflake factories we call colleges and universities. >> one of the girl scouts, maybe they would take advantage much this because they like the outdoors. i think -- the boy scouts are better at it. no boys wants to join the girl scouts. >> i think that's wrong. if i could join the girl scouts

just to get more access to cookies. i dropped out of the boy scouts, to be honest. kennedy: did they bully you because your first name is cabot? ken consider i want to thank you all for being here. what a great discussion we have had. we have another one coming up. kanye west says he loves president trump and that slavery is a choice. that made him an outcast in politics and entertainment. hi, kids! i'm carl and i'm a broker. do you offer $4.95 online equity trades? great question. see, for a full service brokerage like ours, that's tough to do. schwab does it. next question. do you offer a satisfaction guarantee?

kennedy: kanye has been making headlines, and he could be making his way to the white house. the president is going to host a summit on race. kanye doubled down yesterday calling slavery a choice. you might think he wrote the book on being an outcast. but that's not true.

hurricanes a michaels did. -- mia michaels did. i watched you for years on "you think you can dance." i have always been very moved by what you do. and the idea of embracing your misfittery and being a unicorn in that drainage is very tough. >> it's an important message, especially right now. the world is a little heavy when it's in the same place. it feels like every one * does the same thing. we are all turning into a unified machine. and it's sad in a weird way because i feel like my whole philosophy is when you are born, you are a legend the moment you are born because there is only one of you in the history of the world. what you do with that.

what did you do with your dash. and what did your dash look like? kennedy: you arrive with great fanfare and the choices you make. it's tough for people. i like this book. i have got two daughters. one of them is in middle school it's hard to encourage this kind of individualism and non-traditional thinking at an age when you are terrified to walk out on that's ledge. >> i'm sure as a mom you want to protect your child. you don't want them left out or exclude or made fun of. as a child i was quirky and awkward. and nobody liked me. i was always in a corner by myself. it got to the point where -- my

mom never tried to make me be anything. she didn't dress me, she let me just be my colorful weird self. that translated down the road. i never realized how important that was. kennedy: you can see that. even not knowing about dance, seeing the kind of modern dance fan what you teach and pull out of people it's so intuitive and it's so emotional and passionate. that's how our kids live. if they find something they really love. this book is fantastic. a unicorn in a world of donkeys. thank you so much for being here. please come back. i would love to continue this conversation. i wish i could dance.
