to conservative author jerome coarsey. if you saw last interview, you cannot miss it. have a great night, thank you for watching, kennedy begins right now. ♪ kennedy: david thank you. >> robert mueller is playing dirty, now a judge is calling him on it, could the tide be turning? last night's federal judge ordered mueller team to turnover documents related to their questioning of president trump's normer national security adviser michael flynn, after a report, they pressed flynn not to bring lawyers to interviews, claiming they were just having casual conversation, that was not the case, the feds reportedly used those interviews again him. flynn has pleaded guilty, one count of lying to investigators,

today in a interview with harris faulkner, president claims this proof that flynn is getting railroaded. >> they took a man, a general, a reported person, a nice -- respected person, a nice man, i don't know what he said about me, maybe they scared him enough, i have a feeling he is a toucher kintougher guy than cohy took a general, that did not lie they convinced him he it lie, they are embarrassed they got caught. kennedy: today, this week james comey admitted he bent rulings when invest grea investigating r three-star general. >> something i would not have done and gotten away with in a more organized investigation or the administration, in bush

administration for example or obama administration. there would be discussions and approvals, i authority it is early -- thought it is early enough, let's just send a couple gees over. kennedy: yeah, let's go ahead and violate the love, i love abusing that power. keepy sayin comey saying he wout have done this in obama or bush administrations, that just proves he is not the patriot he claims. what do you think of those comments that james comey made. >> it was disturbing to hear him make those comments and people laugh and aflawe applaud them, u don't' high law enforcement officials or low, saying i wouldn't do this to a rich

person but i would to a poor person, and or i wouldn't do this to a white person but i would do it to a black person, this is, i you'll not do this to someone i liked but i would do this to my enemies, i hope that americans hear this, say that does not sound like justice in america. kennedy: when you hear things like, that those who have access to christopher wray in future pressed him on this i am stunned by james comey's lack of self awareness. and things he says, things he claims, he makes statements that betray the opposite in his nature. and he is essentially bragging about abusing power. >> yes, and this is another thing that is bad, i don't think that anyone is holding him or anyone other people who abuse power account able, you take a look at these you know larger investigation, it involved a lot of criminal leaking, a lot of

letting your friends get away with anything, making sure your political opponents are persecuted to fullest extent of the law i -- when you see that people have trouble trusting law enforcement agents that not good. kennedy: people talk about hillary clinton and james comey, they say, well, she didn't win the election and he is no longer fbi direct or, as if the rule of law no longer applies to you, that is like saying harvey weinstein is not head of weinstein company any more, should we really be pressing the sexual assault cases. >> and we're still having after effects of what happened under his administration of the fbi, with the flynn case, you have all sorts of examples of them abusing their power, doing leaks to set someone up, ve comb.

that mike flynn was in no trouble. and then a few hours later they interviewed him to try to put him in a perjury trap, he is dealing with that now even though hillary clinton is not president. >> i want you to talk about comparisons and contrast between clinton investigation, and trump investigation went the fbi. of course, -- within the fbi, they gave immunity deals to everyone in hillary clinton's inner circle. and you know that was one tool, where with trump investigation, they rely on surveillance, because, those powers are far too vast for any institution, including the fbi. so, do you see a mark difference there between immunity versus surveillance. >> in case of hillary clinton e-mail investigation, well you who began with a reasonable

assumption there was a violation of the law. anwhat fbi did is given immunit, handing it out like candy, whether they had multiple people on false statements up to and including hillary clinton. and russia probe, there is nos every, and course of investigating this you wring up everyone for process crime, investigation itself produces a crime, oh, you lied to us when we asked you tricky questions, they go afternoon everyone no matter -- after er everyone. you have broad prosecutorial i didiscretion but i you want to apply it evenly. kennedy: any el, interesting in hillary case in a were giving get out of jail free cards and

in trump case, they throw everyone in jail. you know, we have to have a different form of metering out justice. because it should be fair. and it should be equal. but in this case, it is not in jameses comey proves it over and over again. mollie hemingway thank you. >> thank you. kennedy: president also spoke with harris faulkner about his former fixer, personal attorney michael cohen who received that three year prison sentence yesterday in exchange for his kind of cooperation. but despite laundry list of crimes that michael cohen admit torkd presidenadmitted to, prese is in the clear because cohen acted on his. >> he is a lawyer, a lawyer who represents a client is to do right thing, that is why you pay them money and et cetera. he did bad things, and income tax evasion, i heard about taxi cab, i heard about a lot, i'm

not reading about it what he did, he made a deal to embarrass me. kennedy: president attempt to distance himself from cohen's actions took a hit today of nbc news reported in 2015 trump in room with cohen and pecker while they discussed hush payments that were allegedly made to karen mcdu mcdougall. but the president does not remember it that wa. >> i don't think we made a payment to the tabloid, nobodyic except for me would be looked at like this,. nobody , what about congress, they have a slush fund, millions of dollars made out each year. >> for wrong doers, scam artists and perverts. is this really the beginning of the end, as in a have been saying since the beginning.

joining me from daily caller, he serves editor in chief, also author of the art of the donald, -- it chris bedford welcome back. >> thank you. kennedy: who do you believe. >> awkward for the president, first he said, he didn't know about the payments, then he said maybe he did, but there was nothing wrong, this is embarrassing, but was it illegal? and it certainly was not. at least very likely it was not, right now, he is dealing with an overzealous new york prosecutor who made it their mission to go after the president, and attack anyway. kennedy: you know, let's talk about subjective inte inter-- i.

>> interpretation. if you turn on msnbc or cnn, they are screaming their hair is on fire. we are literally a day away from pence administration. >> it is pretty obscene to watch some other networks, no matter when you turn them on, some shrill coverage saying that end is near, and every now and then, they get a resignation they are like a broken clock claiming to be correct, they are right for that minute. it suv often wrong, and over wrought. this is them on steroid, everyone has known, because president before he was president would leak it himself to to bto betabloid, he has bees

and carried on affairs, he lived this life, no one said holy smokings, i am not voting for trump because i find out he schremp witslept with a playboy. kennedy: why then the money. if there was known, what could the women say that would hurt him, why put your campaign and future presidency in possible jeopardy for that? >> my guess, to save his family embarrass am. embarrassment, his young son and wife, i can't know that for sure. but a huge overreach by democrat and some prosecutors, only time that contribution to paying a woman to not talk when an affair in past have gotten to court, they decided this is not in contribution that was john edwards using donation to his

campaign, this is president trump using his own money. kennedy: i don't understand what the line is. if the line is well, if something embarrassing, it has to to with your campaign. but, i made that point last night, if you have plastic surgery to cover an embarrassing forehead or you know, bump on your nose. >> or gym maybe or hair dye. kennedy: right that should all be reported. >> there is an unending list, that is one reason it will not hold up. and thing he bright up in his interview, if this is a stafnard of anything that can cause you embarrassment, is possible violation, there are huge on capitol hill, who use taxpayer money to pay for things they admitted to, sexual assault, harassment discrimination. kennedy: you know, if the president did cross the line, if

there something there, then, robert mueller obligated to release that report publicly, it should not be a private scif read. >> he should, but i don't know if that would bridge closure at all -- bring close our at all unless president trump's head is handed on a platted platter, democrats will not be satisfied, i feel fu funny for mueller he s jumped on the president trump clown car. he ended up with with rodger stone and his friends. kennedy: oh, mercy. they would be fun to go to a circus with. >> i bet they woul would -- wout they would go with you. kennedy: i may have to wrangle everyoning it chris bedford, give my love to katy bedford. >> i will. kennedy: thank you. >> coming up president trump

said his new trade deal with mexico will save enough money to build a wall. but wasn't mexico supposed to by for it from the beginning? i will talk with congressman matt gaetz. he is next. now i'm thinking...i'd like to retire early. let's talk about this when we meet next week. edward jones came to manage a trillion dollars in assets under care by focusing our mind on whatever's on yours.

kennedy: tick, tick, clock is ticking today a government shut down. woohoo. president trump released a video saying it could be avoided if democrat step up to the plate, and do what they know is right, watch. >> fact is they have always supported fences and walls and partition, but they only don't want to do it because of me. kennedy: so sad. no one wants to be person no one likes, today president hit back at allegation that having congress fund the wall would break his campaign promise in having mexico pay for it. i stated one way or the other mexico will pay for the wall, this has not has not changed, nl with mexico and canada is better than old nafta deal, just by the money we save, mexico is paying

for the wall. we can't afford not to to with that that logic. thigh postponed a vote t vote ol to fund a wall, at a time whether everyonwheneveryone is y for the wall, perhaps could bigger question is, will there be a wall, with me now, florida congressman matt gaetz, you were at white house. >> i had a discussion about trade with peter navarro, an exciting opportunity for president to take trade lessons we learned in renegotiating nafta and apply them globally. i am grateful for chance to go to white house chat policy. kennedy: was anyone talking about the wall today? did you overhear any good conversations.

>> i have not heard any on the wall but i had plenty with president, even before last election, he was serious about seeing congress prioritize border security, he is frustrated. he knows that nancy pelosi will never pr prioritize border security, we need our republican leadership to show one last gasp of political courage. kennedy: let's talk about vote that happening next week. do republicans have the votes to pass a wall fund? >> i'm confidence we would be able to pass funding for the wall in a clean vote on that question. but, one of the frustrating things about this place we can never vote on one thing at a time. this week, we voted on a farm bill rule that also restricted our war powers relative to yemen, like it shows, you would never be able to explain on main

street, why restricting congress' powers to declare war in qulem e yemen would be linkem subsidies and crop insurance, that the silly way we do things, if we had a clean vote on the wall i think it would pass. -- prior congressings democratic ven voted for 25 billion in wall funds it shows, gives credence. kennedy: that is president big claim. democrat are hypocrites they have voted for you know boosting the wall, and drones. and partitions and more border security, he said they are only obstructing him, do you agree with that. >> i do, why would they not support border security now if in the past? this more about sitting stage for their policy goals going forward than actually getting something done with time we have

now for american people. it is rewarding to see a lot of technology this president's administration has deployed from virtual reality technology, working to help us catch people that are involved with cartels and human traffics. y on the border if we get money, we will get the. result. kennedy: we have talked about this before, you know you hurt cartels, you take away their marketing. >> how about, that we could do responsible adult cannabis reform here, and then there would not be a profit to move this plan across the bord icialg and haver andhave beam die peop. we'll get more young people elected to congress this is a generational issue. wild get stuf we'll get stuff d. there are a wit a lot of reasone need that wall beyond narcotrafficking. kennedy: wha what happens?

>> as president loves to say, we'll see, i think he is really serious about it he knows there is his last chance, to get something out of paul ryan before his speaker ship concludes. kennedy: you are not going to miss paul ryan are you? >> i don't know. i guess now, like people who dislike he in leadership will be members of other party not my own. >> that more fun. >> no fun fighting with your brothers and sisters. matt gaetz thank you. >> thank you. kennedy: we cover a lot of ground, i am proud of us, on thursday. >> we can move on a thursday. kennedy: right, thank you. >> all right coming up, senate voted to the withdraw u.s. support for brutal civil war in yemen. defying president trump, i'll explain why we should celebrate senators finding their backbone, my monologue is next, stay here. . fisher investments tailors portfolios to your goals and needs. some only call when they have something to sell.

coalition is losing and saudis are winning. pompeo could have called iran and said let's cut and run from both sides, but the fact that saudi have been indiscriminate, you are correct, using our weapons their money. kennedy: they bomb a school bus, full of children, who were coming back from a field trip and fro 41 of them died, it wasa lockheed-martin missile, last i check not made in saudi arabia. >> problem is if you stop immediately right now you just pro long the suffering, what better end it now, resolve it, saudis win, houthi coop from 5 years ago, the rock 'n roll

houthi coop. that started whole thing, i worked in that part of the world, this is a long running yemeni issue. that the iranians injected themselves into and saudis don't want it on their border this is on saudi bored sneer bored bo . kennedy: there no way that united states wins any part of this, saudi arabia sells billions and billions and billions of dollars worth of oil, tell them to make their own damn weapons. >> they will fight the war with or without us, they are not dropping american equipment and buying russian, they are beholden to us, that was by dispiedesign 30 years ago, it ia loathesome regime, it just
