papadopoulos pleaded guilty earlier this month to lying to the fbi about his contacts with russians. the president's response to the news: "sorry, but this is years ago, before paul manafort was part of the trump campaign. but why aren't crooked hillary and the dems the focus?????" "also, there is no collusion!" the white house following up with this. >> today's announcement has nothing to do with the president, nothing to do with the president's campaign or campaign activities. the real collusion scandal, as we have said before, has everything to do with the clinton campaign, fusion gps, and russia. there are no activities or official capacity which the trump campaign was engaged in any of these. most took place before the campaign existed. >> reporter: can you explain george papadopoulos' role with the campaign? >> it was limited, a volunteer position. no activity was ever done in an official capacity. on behalf of the campaign.

>> dana: greg, you've been following it closely. >> greg: we are finding out paul manafort was involved with shady dealings prior to the election and other breaking news, kevin spacey is gay. mind-blowing. evidence of russian collusion or not. i sense a bit of deflation in the media. they are disappointed. they expected a pony and this is a goldfish. that's why you are seeing a lot of press saying this is only the first part. just wait. just wait. maybe they're right but right now we knew this was coming. we knew what manafort was. he's a hired gun that you hire specifically because he will do whatever you need to do for four months and then he goes. >> dana: i don't know if that's why you would hire him. >> greg: what is with papadopoulos? that is the world's greatest

name. papadopoulos. i am saying it's a shock. he's hollywood's ladies man. our generations rock hudson. >> dana: if we could talk about the charges for manafort and gates. how serious are they? that type of money and money laundering and defrauding the united states. it's a pretty big deal. >> kimberly: it is. it is big, breaking news. what i found significant is that for some reason he did not think or see that coming, the sources close to him said, as of saturday, someone said he didn't think he was among those included. i think there is more to come. i'm curious whether they will work or try to that ideal. this is something i think the president should steer clear of and not make any comments about it and let it work its way through the system. >> dana: i don't see any

reason to defend manafort, not that they really did today but why would you defend the guy, if you are talking about draining the swamp. that is the kind of swamp creature you are talking about. someone willing to break the law, work for a hostile foreign government and then launder the money. >> jesse: just a delegate counter. only there for a few months. is it paul, john? doesn't matter. my mom called me first thing in the morning. paul manafort conspiring against america. passes the phone to my dad and my dad says that manafort is going to rat out trumpcare my mom just texted me. she says "papadopoulos is the gordon liddy of the pack. how is your history? do you know gordon liddy?" they can't wait until the watergate thing spirals out of control. especially a grand jury in d.c. he is innocent until proven

guilty. if anything, he is guilty of liking the finer things in life. apparently he spent $12 million on beverly hills shopping sprees and mercedes-benz's and range rovers and housekeeping and racked up real estate end. i want to sound like dana perino. i was reading the national review. an anthony mccarthy's article was great. he said none of the charges are a slam dunk. what did he do? lobbying for the government of ukraine and concealed some proceeds. on the surface, it doesn't seem that bad but you believe the conspiracy theories, this guy doesn't look like he wants to spend a day in prison. he looks like he likes the soft things in life. >> kimberly: what does that mean? >> jesse: there is no way this

guy is going to spend a day in jail. >> dana: you can't be cool with hiding money saved on up to pay her taxes. >> jesse: absolutely not. if he is guilty, he should be charged. >> kimberly: goes back to 2012. >> jesse: like you said, it predates him during the campaign. trump was not mentioned in the indictment. there was no collusion, nothing about hacking the election. i think the real issue is papadopoulos. i like saying the name. papadopoulos, what he did, hillary did ten times worse. >> kimberly: way to pivot. >> jesse: hillary, millions of dollars for russian dirt. papadopoulos is some 30-year-old overly ambitious guy who tried to dig up dirt, failed. brian fallon, hillary's spokesperson, said getting opposition research dirt from foreigners has a good thing.

trying to set up a meeting with trump and putin. that got killed by the trump campaign. maybe he's cooperating now. there are some emails going back and forth. the white house provided the investigators with those emails, but now i'm hearing he may have been wearing a wire which i think scares everybody. >> dana: juan, let's get your take. poppel operatives papadopoulos e radon manafort. >> juan: let's talk about manafort. he has an interesting history. he worked on reagan's campaign and then start his own lobbying firm with charlie black and roger stone, another trump intimate. and then goes off and he's representing some reprehensible people around the world. the question becomes, and i think this is an issue you

raised. why would donald trump hire paul manafort? it's a real question. you say wow, who are you bringing in? >> dana: that's been known for a while. it was brought up at the time. manafort and his deputy rick gates, who pleaded not guilty, they were able to get the delegates. >> juan: that was after. brings them back. >> dana: i would imagine that's why you hire them. he thought he could do that job. >> juan: what i am saying is we can hire lots of effective people who will employ all sorts of means in order to get what they want but you don't bring them in if you are running for president and you realize it could have tremendous negative implications for you and your reputation. to get back to papadopoulos, i think what we now understand us, and i think this is to me the most intriguing part, he says he

has a meeting with a professor in london. the professor says russia has a batch of emails on hillary clinton, a batch of dirt. then we learn, roger stone is saying more is coming and then more does come in terms of the hacked emails from john podesta and the clinton campaign. the question is at that point -- >> jesse: i don't follow. how you got from hacking hillary's emails to the meeting. >> juan: the professor who has contacts with russia, and that's the reason papadopoulos was meeting with him, the professor says to him we've got a batch of emails from the clinton campaign. and then what you get is people like roger stone advertising we've got lots to come in the suggestion would be that somehow it was communicated inside the trump campaign that russia was working -- >> dana: another way to look at it, that they were blowing

the kid off. 30 years old, responsible for his actions but that he's overzealous and they are like please go away. this is not going to be a high-level thing. i don't know if that's what's going to happen. he pleaded guilty. >> greg: enough of the professor. where is marianne? the manafort scandal, when you look at it, it's a problem he hoped to have because it means you won. they hired this guy lingo he's a pretty dark character. but if we win, we will deal with it then. they let him go pretty quick because they used him. >> kimberly: he was a specialist. >> greg: he was charged with conspiracy against the u.s., defined as an effort to defraud the u.s. have you ever paid your dog babysitter in cash? that is the broader -- [laughter]

>> dana: that's not me not paying it. >> kimberly: it is jasper. >> greg: do you know what defrauding the u.s. is? kneeling during the national anthem. >> dana: we have gone from blaming trump to blaming perino. today, tony podesta, the democratic lobbying guy, who we found out was being spoken to by the investigators on mueller's team, he stepped down from his prestigious lobbying firm today. >> kimberly: i think it is significant. i think there is something in the wind, shall we say. he's probably getting prepared to preempt something could come down against him. makes sense if you look at the web of characters. unveiled over the last couple weeks. i think that's a name we'll hear

more about tomorrow and by the end of the week. >> juan: a contractor basically for metaphoric. >> dana: company ar company b. >> kimberly: more people coming into focus that are going to be indicted. >> jesse: he worked for uranium one. got paid to lobby on their behalf. uranium one was behind the dossier. >> dana: working with manafort? >> juan: anybody who thinks this is the end of the deal, this is early in the game. basically mueller trying to put pressure, just as he succeeded with papadopoulos. now he's putting pressure on manafort to flip on potentially the trump campaign. he wants to know whatever he can learn about trump or the trump organization. that's all in play. >> dana: he has to take it to the grand jury. >> juan: it occurred before

but the idea is that manafort is locked into russia, the ukraine. that's why the russians would've come to him and he would've gone to the russians. >> greg: what you are saying is this bad stuff happened before donald trump so maybe trump's flaw was a less than stellar background check. we've all been there, including msnbc. >> dana: more to come on this. much more to come on the big russia probe development. more about miller's investigation and where it will go.

>> kimberly: back to the charges filed against president trump's former campaign chair and his deputy in the special counsel's russia probe. judge napolitano thinks it's the beginning of more to come. speak of the first of many dominoes to fall. bob mueller is following the m.o. of federal prosecutors. someone at the top of the totem pole, that's your prize. you're going to indict people going up the totem pole to see if you can squeeze them, threaten their ruination by loss of liberty and loss of property. this is the first of many steps and bob mueller putting together an enormous puzzle. >> greg: he did three metaphors. dominoes, totem pole, and a puzzle. that's very confusing, judge. are we sure he's a judge? >> dana: i am pretty sure. >> kimberly: puzzle boy. dana, when you hear the judge say that, he says it's part of a puzzle, more to come. this is what we are talking about. i think this is just scratching the surface.

what i did as a prosecutor. get these people and from them you pull threads. >> dana: or you roll it up like a toothpaste tube. >> greg: this is metaphor hell hell. >> dana: i followed everything. one thing that might've been a little bit of a surprise today is that gates gets brought up again. people sort of forgot about him. he wasn't somebody who was let go immediately, as manafort was. he stayed on the campaign, worked on the inaugural committee, the transition period after the election and then the inaugural committee. that was a bit of a surprise. i think in some ways people might've been surprised that it wasn't mike flynn today. former national security advisor who we know has been in contact with prosecutors. i don't know if there is more to come or not. i don't know. i feel like it's pretty locked

up. this guy, papadopoulos, got arrested in july, and we don't hear about it until today. that's a pretty tight operation i think. >> kimberly: jesse, when you hear them talk about more to come et cetera, do you think -- you were mentioning in the last block that you think perhaps they're going to try to use manafort to get him to roll on someone closer. >> jesse: i think you have to assume there is major international conspiracy and collusion between trump and russia to buy into the premise that he is squeezing manafort in order to get the big fish. what if there is no criminality with russia? you are squeezing manafort. >> kimberly: that's what peter king was saying. he's been privy for some of the actual testimony of people coming in, like trump's lawyer, and nothing so far that he has heard suggests or ties in anything to collusion with the

russians. the best they can hope to do is make kind of a tangential connection to say maybe president trump and his team knew that manafort had these connections but where's the proof of that? >> juan: i think it's a little different, the way i view it. remember manafort was at the meeting in 2016 arranged by donald trump jr. manafort is at the meeting, jared kushner. we learned last week that the meeting who was there, had no -- had been coordinated with the russian government. she is at this meeting, she says turns out she does have some connection to the russian government. when you have manafort who took notes and guess who has the notes? i don't know if he recovered them when he busted into the house but he has manafort the notes from the meeting. he's going to want to know from manafort, what happened at the meeting and was their follow-up?

that leads, and this is how you are thinking. you are saying there is no direct tie but if they know that the russians are taking certain steps, then they are going to take may be coordinated or not colluded. these two are working together. >> kimberly: to what juan is speaking to, if you look at the specific language in the indictment, there's 13 wire transfers. when you do financial crimes cases like this, you follow the money and it appears to me that mueller is trying to stretch the timeline by showing these 13 wires from 2012 to 2014 to show it's in the nexus of that time frame of the connection and a relationship. with president trump and the campaign et cetera. trying to move it down here to where he starts working for delegates. to me, that's what i see he is trying to do. >> jesse: does the timeline stretch to 2016? i read it went to 2014.

>> kimberly: 100%, and then it says at least until 2016. you can say, for example. i'm going to plead a case, charging defendant. what do we say? on or about december 12. it could be 11, 13. that's how you covered. >> jesse: it's hard to speculate. seems like you know what you are talking about. to juan's point, you're talking about the russian lawyer at the meeting at trump tower. she has been tied to fusion gps as well. if you pull the thread and we come back to having mueller investigate fusion gps and we talk about podesta, the campaign chair same to the senate he had no idea who paid for it. that seems like a lie, and it also seems like paying for russian dirt to influence the election.

loser. it's true. she lost. it's a fact. it's true we at fox news love some hillary because she is in the news even though she lost. and it's because she lost that we are now finding out more about her campaign the dirty tricks. this is the side benefit of trump's win. the reporting keeps turning over rocks were refined hillary and her cronies. who is turning over the rocks? "the hill," "washington post," even mother jones. that's not "fox & friends." it's news that the lurid dossier was paid for by the clinton machine, collusive offspring birthed by democrats and russians and obscured by layers of outright lies. the real issue is that the dossier was a big part of the justification for mueller's probe. so they paid for a shady dossier, got an independent counsel out of it, and now they are getting indictments from the independent counsel that are unrelated to the dossier.

at this point, they paid to get manafort indicted for stuff unrelated to the election. hilarious. would we have known that had hillary won? doubt it. let's not forget the person spending the most time on hillary is hillary. her "blame everyone but me" tour keeps going. she is the energizer bunny and a pantsuit. if she was like that before the election, maybe she would have the closer residence she's been wishing for. dana, i went over the list of people -- fox news doesn't run mother jones. >> dana: on the left, any development in the russian investigation has been called the smoking gun to prove donald trump had definitely colluded with the russians. in the opposite is true. anything brought up about hillary, the right says this is absolute proof she was dirty and she was the one.

i think that's why, if they can keep the integrity of the investigation, then that would be the best thing for america. get it done. let the chips fall where they may. and then we can move on. >> greg: she is making fun of us about talking about her, but she is everywhere. she is as visible as trump is on the book tour. i turn on the tv, she is staring at me. sometimes the tv isn't even on. >> juan: the right make her bigger than life. it's unbelievable because it is striking. nancy pelosi used to be like the whipping boy, and now it is hillary clinton. the reality is that even before the dossier, we knew russia and the government, united states government was investigating russian interference in the election. when hillary clinton complains and i turn on. lock up hillary. maybe she has a point.

talking on hillary clinton and the campaign. we dispense with her a year ago but she won't go away. people are covering her book like it's nonfiction and they keep talking about what happened a year ago in these campaigns. >> jesse: hillary is like the boxer who won't leave the ring when the fight is over. she is still out there throwing punches. of course we are going to cover it. hillary making an appointment t joke. the last president impeached was your husband. i think she'd likes it fox covers her the way we do. makes her feel relevant. you know that when hillary points her finger at fox, she is guilty and it's a signal to her friends in the media to look the other way uncover her treatment on fox as partisan. >> greg: new anthem protests on the football field. the players taking a knee against their owner. that drama next.

of the players, like oh, it's a bunch of white guys afraid of black eyes. what is this? i don't know. mcnair quoted in espn magazine sang "you can't have the inmates," as if black men, prisoners, stereotypes. it was insulting. this thing continues to spiral. you have the players saying the owner knows we not -- not only are we playing our hearts out. we put our bodies on the line for his team every week and this is what he thinks of us? >> jesse: it is a shame politics has destroyed football. it is every week and they are kneeling for everything out. i'm not saying what he said was right but week after week after week. >> kimberly: it's become such a distraction. instead of getting the score, what you do is get get the nei. who kneeled, who didn't, who stood. let's move on. focus on the sport and what they were paid to do.

inmates means blacks. if he meant that, he wouldn't have said it because he knew it would have been suicide. when you say -- the inmates are running the prison, like all of these players are prisoners because they are black. no, he was trying to use medium and he used it clumsily, leading to my bigger point. who is getting in the most trouble over these things, language? older people who do not know the world has changed. >> kimberly: do you know someone like that? >> greg: i know a few people like that. the inmates are running the prison, that's racist. the guy is saying i'm not being racist. you can't say that. >> kimberly: inmates are running the asylum. >> greg: he screwed it up. if you thought he was trying to be racist, you are seeing it. >> dana: i think when he tried to further clarify, he was talking about how he was making

strategic decisions about the league. i think he was trying to say, use idioms because it helps with the -- facilitate conversations. if you are clumsy, you say the wrong word. >> greg: young people under 30, maybe they haven't heard it. >> juan: i think we have heard it before but remember when donald trump said. donald trump said you can't have the owners operating in such a way that would indicate they are afraid of the players. again, the owners are white and trump supporters. the players are black. i don't know who they support or not but you can make assumptions. clearly trump has been using this to divide people left and right. >> greg: what if you don't see race? >> jesse: players kneeling, what if it was predominantly white players? >> juan: different situation.

mistake. >> greg: you can defend me at trial. >> jesse: i want to remind everybody that the kneelers on the texans, they lost. when we return, republican slamming mueller on leaks in the investigation. cs with the app and... filed a claim, but... you know how they send you money to cover repairs and... they took forever to pay you, right? no, i got paid right away, but... at the very end of it all, my agent... wouldn't even call you back, right? no, she called to see if i was happy. but if i wasn't happy with my claim experience for any reason, they'd give me my money back, no questions asked. can you believe that? no. the claim satisfaction guarantee, only from allstate. switching to allstate is worth it.

he knows it's inappropriate what transpired here. there was speculation before, early on in the investigation. obviously, manafort. we saw them target his house and go in there with a whole team. that was kind of unbecoming, done in such a large, flashy wa way. now the situation. they have to do an investigation into that. it's never ending, like a ball of yarn. metaphor monday. >> juan: dana mentioned papadopoulos was actually not only arrested and charged but pled guilty and we didn't know about it at all. >> jesse: dano makes a great point. they kept it under wraps. there than other leaks by the mueller team. that needs to be subject to scrutiny. trump was under investigation for obstruction of justice. leaks came out of the investigation. you can't necessarily pin it on mueller but things are getting in the press that shouldn't. subpoenas against don jr. for his meeting that the grand jury
