12:00 am
guy: president trump on offense, lashing out at the so-called fake news and this time he's naming names. i'm guy benson in for kennedy. the president is at a rally in indiana. and the tweet storm started fast and furious this morning. the president had a lot to unload including quote i cannot state strongly enough how totally dishonest much of the media is. truth doesn't matter to them. they only have their hatred and agenda including fake books, always anonymous sources and are pure fiction.
12:01 am
enemy of the people. the president apparently speaking about recent books by omorosa, mike wolff. he says extreme bias of me by cnn cloud their thinking and made them unable to function. but as i always said, this has been going on a long time. little jeff z has done a terrible job, his ratings suck, and at&t should fire him to save credibility. what's going on at cnn is happening at other networks. the different is andy lack-y is about to be fired. when lester holt got caught fudging my tape on russia, they
12:02 am
were hurt badly. there was zero evidence that tape was doctored in any way. what would a tweet storm be without a shot at the old fbi director. he said the only thing james comey got right was when he said president trump was not under investigation. i love that third person. chris stirewalt, a lot to digest. let's start with all of this information being shared or views on the twitter machine from the president started very early. cnn, nbc in the cross-hairs. your thoughts. >> this is a president who has been on the receiving, the mccain stuff and certainly the bombshell news from last week. and he's trying to get back on offense. and he has a preferred enemy. his preferred enemy is the press. his preferred enemy is to attack
12:03 am
the press and say he's a victim of unfair coverage. republicans love to hate the media. if you hear the bloodthirsty cries that will ring out in evansville, indiana tonight you will get the vibe for how intense among his supporters hatred for the media is. republicans are saying i wonder why the president's numbers don't go down. it may be for a third of the country or so, they do not believe one word of anything from any source about the president, and the only person they are willing to listen to about the president is himself. he's his own news agency. guy: what's this about lester hold fudging a tape. it doesn't seem to be in my book
12:04 am
from what i can see. >> one of the reasons the president doesn't do very many interviews, since that very bad turn where lester holt said to him, did you fire jim comey? was it over the russia investigation? i am sure his advisors said don't say that. and he said yes, that's why i did that. it destroyed the rationale they built. rod rosenstein wrote the letter. he was a flop of a flop of a flop and leave it there. but the president said it. this is not exactly new. he talked about it before. i think it may have been the point of the tweet storm. you are attacking cnn. they have a problem, they are standing by the story. i believe they must have a reason to stand by the story. but they have a problem with the story about the infamous trump
12:05 am
tower story about his son. and also i never said the thing that i said. that's part of the stratagem. you will throw lester holt in there where there is no cause for that and paint them all with the same brush. guy: he talks about the fake books. he goes after omarosa. she would not have been number one without his help. what's the strategy beside punch, punch, punch, even if it helps the detractor. >> you have been around washington long enough to know what is about to happen is a special form of washington book-dom. the bob woodward book will be loaded with juicy nuggets. in the case of woodward, they will be checked out and verifiable, they will stand up, they have been through the ringer already. who knows. woodward reports these over such
12:06 am
a long period of time, who knows what steve bannon or some other trump official said a year ago that they have forgotten they said. this is the president, don't believe what you read, believe the tweets. guy: it will be an exciting news cycle once we have woodward excerpts to chew over. he's calling for the president of a network to be fired and it doesn't almost register on my radar anymore. >> for his followers. for the folks who waited in line all day today in indiana for a chance to be in the arena to feel the presence, wear the red maga hats. we have survey data that says trump is a preferred source of news for people. there it is.
12:07 am
the morning bugle is the president's tweet storms. guy: when he wasn't throwing hay makers at the media, he was shooting down reports that he let go of white house council don mcghan because of his defense of jeff sessions. he says i like don, but he was not responsible for me not firing bob mueller or jeff sessions. so much fake reporting and fake news. the president also denied reports that ivanka trump his daughter and her husband jared kushner were behind the decision. a tweet that reportedly caught mcghan off guard. but it wasn't the mueller probe or jared or ivanka, why is mcghan leaving right now? let me ask buck sexton.
12:08 am
let's start with mcghan. you have some hyperventilation from the press over that "new york times" story about mcghan cooperating with mueller and people are saying this must be point a, point b, trump is mad, so mcghan is out. in the story the times reported that trump personally approved the cooperation with mueller. that theory doesn't really fly with me. what about you? >> i think it's much ado about nothing. when you line up the different administration folks who have departed already. mcghan has been a survivor. no question about it. he's one of the last guys left on the island who was there in the early days. it's a tough job. there are a ton of different reasons that have nothing to do with getting deep into the trumpology of what he said. they might want to move on to do something else. i'm sure it's a high-stress
12:09 am
position. in some ways his messaging is credible. i feel like mcghan feels, i can make more money in the private sector with less stress. trump knew he was talking to them. if anything else it vindicates trump in a way. he sat down for 30 hours. no one thinks mcghan is a trumpster. if mueller doesn't have anything from that, where is he going to get it? guy: lindsey graham says the only way for trump to have his name cleared is to get a clean bill of health from bob mueller and trying to fire mueller would be the end of trump's presidency, he would be done. do you agree with that
12:10 am
assessment? >> i don't think it will clear trump's name even if the mueller probe is overwhelmingly favorable to the notion that there was no collusion. i think there will be stuff in there where mueller is saying regarding the firing of comey, i don't think it's criminal but i don't like it. they will be searching for the real collusion, if you will, for the rest of trump's presidency. that's never going to go away, no matter what the mueller probe says. as for the end of his presidency. i feel it's a hypothetical we don't have to war game out. would the senate be willing to remove. let's say the house votes to impeach? would the senate impeach over the firing of mueller? i think it's highly improbable.
12:11 am
guy: bruce ohr on capitol hill. what's your general sense of what might happen to him if anything? >> he has been demoted and moved off to a higher profile probe. there have been some high-level firings and there might be criminal charges against mccabe who was acting fbi director. i think they will go through a process. if any information comes out that he crossed a red line with his behavior in an ethical sense, he might get terminated. why was he meeting with christopher steele in this way? this is bizarre. somebody at that level having these kind of meetings? he was acting like a zealot, not a non-partisan public servant. that's problematic. guy: attorney general jeff sessions' job is apparently safe until the mid-term elections,
12:12 am
according to an interview president trump gave today to bloomberg. but according to a "politico" report, the president has had enough of beauregard. according to the "politico" story trump raised the prospect of firing sessions with lindsey graham who encouraged him to wait until the mid terms. and according to his aides he can't stand sessions' southern accent and annoyed he doesn't have a pedigree. he says sessions talks like he has marbles in his mouth. will the a.g. be the next major figure to depart the administration. joining me, rachel campos-duffy,
12:13 am
tim carney is here and richard fowler. rachel, let me start with you. jeff sessions has a lot of friends and allies in the u.s. senate. if the president is trying to whip them against their old pal, there is a political risk? >> he already managed to change their opinions in some way. in the beginning they were, you cannot touch jeff sessions. lately you heard lindsey graham and others say maybe after the mid terms you can deal with it. they don't want him to do it before the mid-term elections. the democrats' number one issue on their agenda is to impeach donald trump. the last thing you want to do is hand the congress over to the democrats. i think ther there is an impetuo not do anything. but they have changed their minds about never never. guy: tim, what one of the
12:14 am
details we were looking at was sessions' accent and he's not an ivy league guy. does that ring true? >> at first it doesn't ring true. and i have got to admit when it moved to washington, d.c., it took me a while to not have a southern accent grate on me. as a new yorker parochial guy i thought that made them sound dumb, uneducated. and trump has only been down there for a few months. it's possible he still is bothered by this. and this feeds into the worst knock on trump. the populism is something of a con that he's playing on the blue collar voters. guy: are democrats gearing up to
12:15 am
defend the honor of jeff sessions? >> we are not going to be defending jeffrey beauregard sessions. but we are defending the people who walk into that building every day to uphold the law enforcement of the country. jeff sessions is a relatively good attorney general. he substitute asset forfeiture back in. he's been conservative and done what he was asked to do besides the fact he recused himself from the russia investigation. the justice department should be ethical. >> i think they are saying we want you to be equitable. if you are going to recuse yourself and allow the investigation on russia. why aren't you look at some of the irregularities around the
12:16 am
investigation that are very clear and why aren't you look at hillary clinton who destroyed her subpoenaed classified emails. >> that's what the up spector general of the justice department is doing. led by jeff sessions about all these things. >> he can't look into the investigation of a investigation of a campaign he was on. had sessions been plucked out like mike pompeo he could stay in there. but recusing himself was required ethics. guy: it's a feisty panel and they will be back later. so stay tuned. meanwhile, an emotional funeral for the late senator john mccain. plus we are days away from brett kavanaugh's confirmation hearings kicking off. will it be smooth sailing for
12:17 am

12:21 am
emotional funeral in phoenix. tomorrow morning his body will lie in state at the capitol rotunda for public viewing. joining us, chad pergram. an intense in some ways beautiful day in arizona. tributes pouring out for the late senator. tell us about what happened in phoenix and what can we expect the next few days now that senator mccain and his family are back in washington. >> i was struck the past few minutes when senator mccain returned to joint base andrews, the bipartisan turnout by senators and about 100 staff all dressed in black. one of the senator's former colleagues delivered the eulogies, that was former vice
12:22 am
president joe biden. he lost his son beau biden to brain cancer. very similar to what happened with senator mccain. >> john is going to take his rightful place in a long line of extraordinary leaders in this nation's history who in their time and in their way stood for freedom and stood for liberty, and have made the american story the most of improbable and the most of hopeful and most of enduring story on earth. >> it was moving listening to the bagpipes. they were playing "going home" which is a traditional. henry clay was the first one to lie in state in the capitol in 1842. you can see the caisson bring
12:23 am
the casket up to the capital. they will put senator mccain's casket atop the base built for president lincoln. guy: it's rare for this to happen. how does that decision get made? >> it's decided by congress, the senate majority leader along with the minority leaders. you will hear from paul ryan and mitch mcconnell. the minority leader in the house and the senate. they will deliver a wreath. you have the invocation by the
12:24 am
house chaplain and benediction by the reverend barry black. he has a way with word. if you listen to his invocation when the senate first met monday afternoon, he had some strong things to say. he talked about quoting from john mccain's favorite book, "for whom the bell tolls." i remember when daniel inouye, bob dole got to know him when they convalesced in a military hospital. he got up from this wheelchair and walked over with the assistance of his wife and elizabeth dole saying he didn't want his buddy dan inouye to see him that way.
12:25 am
guy: chad pergram live for us on capitol hill. the passing of john mccain has brought lawmakers together from both sides of the aisle. but that ceasefire bipartisanship is expected to end tuesday when the confirmation hearings get under way for brett kavanaugh. both sides are gearing up for a bruising conflict. if kavanaugh does fall short with republicans he could still conceivably get over the top with help from democrats in red states. vice president pence could always cast the deciding vote in the event of a tie. we don't know what will happen. but the kavanaugh hearings have all the makings of a prison
12:26 am
riot. shannon bream joins us. tell us as we look ahead toward tuesday, what are the major sparks that might fly. what are the battle lines being drawn and the flashpoints we can keep an eye on. reporter: the key senators are pressured about the issue of apportion and roe versus wade. we heard comments from susan collins. and there won't be an automatic yes vote because they are republicans. we are getting a look at the witness list. we are finding what we think will be some of the strategy with the minority witnesses. you have got a parkland survivor.
12:27 am
somebody worried about medical coming for preexisting conditions and asthma when it comes to climate change. but whether or not brett kavanaugh thinks a sitting president can be the subject of certain investigations. guy: they telegraphed that for days. they mentioned some of the pressure against certain republicans. but the pressure on the other side is really strong on senators up for reelection who are maybe vulnerable in 2018 from red states who voted for justice gorsuch's confirmation. what are you hearing about where they might be headed when it comes to kavanaugh? >> most of of them are keeping their powder dry. a number of democrats decided to meet with kavanaugh.
12:28 am
this is an illegitimate naming to the supreme court. and none of it should be proceeding and a number of democrats canceled their meetings with kavanaugh. then you have a group up for reelection deep in red states where the president won by substantial margins. they are keeping a wait and see attitude. we are hearing from joe manchin that they want to hear what he has to say during confirmation hearings. there are a number of polls out that show in those key states that the voters want to see kavanaugh confirmed and they want their home state senator to vote for him. guy: i think it's clear if the republicans have the votes, some democrats will come on board. they don't want to stand up to the president with a toothless gesture and get pummeled at home. and still have the kavanaugh

12:33 am
guy: president trump told bloomberg news quote, if they don't shape up, i will withdraw from the world trade organization. trump's suggestion he may further disrupt the world trade organization comes as the u.s. and their canadian counterparts are trying to work out a new trade agreement at the white house right now. trump's team struck a deal with mexico monday and gave canada until tomorrow to join the party. president trump: we are reclaiming our nation's proud manufacturing heritage and putting tariffs on countries who cheat our workers and cheat our companies. not fair. guy: bloomberg is reporting that trump is talking about slapping
12:34 am
another $200 billion worth of tariffs on china as soon as next week. he leveled $50 billion against them. china is our biggest trading partner followed by none other than canada and mexico. don't forget the e.u. either. the question is whether the president's tactics will work. deirdre bolton is here to discuss. sometimes we get so caught up in the politics of this, explain again why this issue matters so much to u.s. workers and consumers. dierdre: all the tariffs placed against us, against american consumers at the end of the day consumers and businesses will pay. if we see this trade war escalate between the u.s. and china, that is to say when we try to sell our goods in china,
12:35 am
then chinese people have to pay more for whatever we manufacture here so they have a disincentive to buy american things. conversely when we pay for a lot of chinese goods here. we'll pay for for them. so basically consumers and businesses get hurt. that's why you have a lot of voices sounding alarms in regards to china saying we understood the $50 billion and china retaliating. but the $200 billion that's being discussed would be a huge escalation. you saw the markets close down today. so i think a lot of investors are nervous about this. these are the world's two biggest economies so that will feel very muscular. the u.s., we consume about 80% of what we produce so there is an argument we would be hurt
12:36 am
less than the chinese economy. but today we snapped a three-day winning streak. guy: we have a deadline tomorrow for canada. at what point does it become worthwhile just to get a deal, even if it's note a great deal. because so much of the volatility and uncertainty spooks the market. is it okay or a mediocre deal okay. dierdre: i would say yes. trudeau is saying if it's not good for canada we are not going to do that. he has to say that because so much of this is posturing. but president trump established a bilateral connection with mexico and it put more pressure on canada to find a solution. trump is trying to bring back manufacturing. dairy is a big part of this
12:37 am
equation. we talk a lot about metals. if there is a compromise on that perhaps canada will get in the mix. guy: deirdre bolton, thanks for stopping by. the florida governor's race features republican ron desantis against democrat andrew gillum. , gillum is the current mayor of tallahassee and he raised $1 million in one day after his surprise victory over moderate gwen graham in tuesday's primary. hike taxes on corporations, abolishing i.c.e. bernie sanders gave him a boost when he rallied with him in florida and alexandria
12:38 am
ocasio-cortez almost immediately congratulated him on twitter when he won. should we be worried. america's increasingly embracing socialism. jonathan hoenig, it's great to see you. let's start with andrew gillum. he wants single payer healthcare, he's pushing for a tax increase. are you concerned that if there is just a blue wave will specific policies not necessarily matter to voters, they just want change, something different from trump and these bad ideas could get in power? >> they want socialism. it's popular in america it's as popular as it's been in modern times. especially among young people. they support socialism more than they support capitalism.
12:39 am
even among those candidates, the policies monkeying around with minimum wage and healthcare. socialism is gaining in popularity. guy: out in california, the likely next governor gavin newsome says he wants to include illegal immigrants with universal healthcare and has no way of paying for it. >> you have say it's expensive. but they will show you it isn't expensive. that's why i believe the right is losing on this issue of socialism. the president doesn't call it universal care but he says everyone will be covered in his
12:40 am
healthcare program. the left says sacrifice yourself for the greater good. i don't believe the president is a representative of capitalism. he talks about sacrificing yourself for the greater good, for the steel workers. that's why you will pay more for a car over the tariffs he supports. guy: what a dispiriting segment. i fear you are right. but i am going to stop you before i get any sadder. we'll be right back. got directions to the nightclub here. and if you get lost, just hit me on the old horn. man: tom's my best friend, but ever since he bought a new house... tom: it's a $10 cover? oh, okay. didn't see that on the website. he's been acting more and more like his dad. come on, guys! jump in! the water's fine!
12:41 am

12:44 am
guy: pope francis has been praised by the left for thirst his social views. but now that one of his own archbishops alleged the foam knew about the sex abuse in the church and looked the other way. i want to say i am protestant, but i'm a fan of the catholic church. i want it to be a moral exemplar, and this whole story is infuriating to me and deeply sad. we have the pope with this
12:45 am
credible allegation levels against him. and he's saying no comment. i will neither confirm nor deny, i will remain completely silent, which is sort of deafening. how can this be viewed by the pope and the vatican as the right approach. >> the defenders of francis says he doesn't want to dignify the charges. but it doesn't work that way. it was kept from us for years that cardinal mckerik, my archbishop in washington was a sexual predator. there per priests and bishops who knew that. now it comes out francis knew that when he brought him into his inner circle. and my question is then why -- how can he possibly say he can
12:46 am
deny, he can avoid answering the question of did he know this? did he know? >> it's a question he doesn't want to answer. but i think we maybe know the answer. you have cardinal in chicago he was asked about this. he's a crony of francis and some of his defenders. he was asked by a local news station about these allegations against the pope and he said the pope had more important things to be worrying about like immigration and climate change. and he said some of these critics don't like the fact that francis is latino. >> which he's not. guy: the cardinal says it was taken out of context. but i looked at the whole transcript and i don't agree. how is this seen as good damage control. how could anything be more important to the soul of the church than rooting out a deep
12:47 am
evil win the. >> this is the greatest crisis in the church in my lifetime. i think this collection may in the end it may end up being better for the church in the long run. pope francis knew the allegations are credible. if he knew, he knows he knew. he needs to admit that and step down. the longer this goes on, the credibility and the moral authority of the church continues to erode every day. we need an investigation that gives an answer. it cannot go on for three years. guy: another committee. richard, it seems a lot of the arguments is it's fax, if the conservatives come after him too hard some of them will come out looking bad. my attitude is good.
12:48 am
if you are part of this you should go down. >> i agree. if you take politics out of this. let's remember this sickness. marking young boys and girls so you know who you can have your way with which is disgusting and morally repugnant happened way before pope francis. the boston globe was the first news outlet to cover it almost two decades ago. the catholic church has a lot on its hands. it falls at the feet of everybody in leadership in the catholic church for decades. >> anybody covering up needs to go asap. guy: one word, accountability. panel stick around. we'll be right back after there is.
12:49 am

12:52 am
guy: is harvard university biased against asian americans? according to the department of justice, the answer is yes. they supported a lawsuit claiming that harvard's application process discriminates against asian americans that uses a
12:53 am
personality likeness. they score lower on asian-americans but can't say why. harvard is a private institution but they take millions of dollars of tax money each year. >> and there are federal anti-discrimination laws. in my mind the more important thing is the story, the liberal identity politic is self-contradictory. it eats itself. it starts down one track but end up applying the opposite. >> let's be real here. admission processes are subjective. that's why you have a personal statement. in that personal statement the admissions officer determines, do i like this person? are they a good fit for our
12:54 am
university. this. >> i deal using demographics as part of it is a way to scale back and deal with that inequity. harvard is saying they had an internal report that found nothing. harvard said they did their own review and said yes there is discrimination but did nothing about it. do you bite new denials from harvard? >> i don't know what their study said. i know test scores aren't the only way to determine whether a kid is going to succeed in school or not. i just wish harvard would look at diversifying beyond skin color. philosophical diversity would enhance the classroom. guy: get rid of skin color and
