final is tomorrow. erase that from your memory. i apologize for saying that july 14th? it feels like the middle of summer. middle of july then it's the middle of the summer. all down hill from here. rachel: i know. pete: you had a great weekend in wisconsin. rachel: nowhere better to be than northern wisconsin in the summer. todd: no place better to be than with you two on the couch. with that all of the fun of today is gone. let's get serious. president trump waking up in scotland and gearing up with his monday meeting with russian leader vladimir putin. pete: moments ago the president tweeting this and i quote: i have arrived at scotland and will be at touch turn berry for two days of meetings, calls and hopefully some golf. my primary form of exercise. the weather is beautiful. and this place is incredible. tomorrow i go to hell sinksy for monday meeting with vladimir putin. rachel: justice department unveils new charges against 12 russian intel officers in

the conspiracy changed the vote count or affected any election result. the special counsel's investigation is ongoing. >> while the charges send a clear and strong message, experts say the reality is that the russians are highly unlikely to extradite any of their officials to the u.s. for prosecution. the president tweeting just moments ago the stories you heard about the 12 russians yesterday took place during the obama administration, not the trump administration. why didn't they do something about it, especially when it was reported that president obama was informed by the fbi in september. before the election. now, guys, this special counsel bombshell comes just two and a half days before president trump is slated to meet with putin one-on-one in helsinki. it's a high stakes summit and there is a lot on the president's agenda. iran, the syrian civil war, the new start nuclear treaty and that's just to name a couple of the highlighted

issues. pete: gillian, thank you very much. gillian points to the timing. why now of all the times have you, to rod rosenstein step up to the podium the friday before the president meets with vladimir putin, i wonder why. the president also raising some other questions this morning just minutes ago tweeting this. where's the dnc server and why didn't the fbi take possession of it deep state. and then the other question is why didn't john podesta have a better password than password. rachel: why didn't the obama administration give better warning to both campaigns that the russians were trying to hack. this would not be by the way the first time that the administration underestimated a very real threat to the united states. you may recall isis the jv team. this clearly happened under obama's watch, it seems like he was asleep at the wheel. pete: we use the word bombshell on rosenstein at the podium. to say me this is an absolute nonevent. none of the russians indicted are going to face any charges ever. we know that russia sucks.

we know russia has been trying to interfere in our elections. we know. this they are a geopolitical adversary of ours. they didn't like hillary clinton. they tried to hack our email. get it we should confront that completely. every moment and every minute we spend obsessing over this is a moment we need into the narrative they are this all powerful boogie man. led to top democrats saying maybe the president shouldn't meet with putin, that was two major take aways to me. these are russians and unless vladimir putin puts them on a plane following the summit and sends them to the u.s. this is a piece of paper. it doesn't have too much effect in the u.s. unless stupidly come to the u.s. and not one sentence of what rod rosenstein yesterday said points to any collusion at all bends over backwards to emphasize. what are you investigating

them when it comes to conclusion. rachel: not the headlines. pete: these indictments don't have a lot of teeth. the other is democrats saying because of these indictments that don't have any teeth, the trump-putin summit should be called off. here is nancy pelosi in a statement. the trump-putin meeting must be cancelled. the president must finally put the integrity of our democracy before the interest of putin. rachel: okay. and schumer also saying glad handing with vladimir putin opt heels of these indictments would be an insult to our democracy. i would just add, also, that elizabeth warren also said cancel your ridiculous putin summit. she said this on twitter. get your butt on a plane back to the united states. i can't imagine her talking that way to president obama. not very respectful. but that's the take away for the democrats. cancel the meeting. pete: the president also pointing to the political bias of so many on the

mueller team, one of which was the hillary clinton non-victory party as well. we saw on full display peter strzok who got kicked off of that because of his bias. i'm just saying. but, the elite media may think the american people are dumb. in fact, didn't peter strzok point out multiple times that he thought he could smell trump supporters in walmart. the condescension drips from the elites even if they work in our government. you are not dumb though and have you realized that the mueller investigation may not be as above board as you think. a new fox news poll out just yesterday shows that the approval rating for bob mueller, just in one month has dropped 7% from being above water at 55% to now under 50% of americans approve of bob mueller's investigation. most significantly, the number of democrats who approve has dropped over 10%. i think they realize the smoking gun they hoped -- it's so sad that they are

hoping for a smoking gun that showed collusion. it's not there. as a result, people are saying when are we going to wrap this thing up watch watch democrats are saying let's wrap this up. starting to get the point if you haven't with 30, $40 million almost two years now, found anything, i think the mueller investigation is a disappointment to them and i think that's why you are seeing the drop in their poll numbers. but i think that for the republicans it's about wrapping it up. todd: look, everybody here in this country realizes this has not been a good time for our nation. the fact that we are dealing so much like pete said earlier with the russians. it kind of validates what they did. let's move on from this. let's go back to being america and the number one super power in the world. unquestionable. pete: we still had an election and what rod rosenstein hat has pointed out not a single vote has changed. hillary clinton had a bad message and campaigned to the wrong spots. she didn't get to pick two supreme court justices.

rachel: true. pete: hillary clinton in pittsburgh, pennsylvania yesterday talking about the supreme court, president trump and the g.o.p., listen to hillary. >> i used to worry that they wanted to turn the clock back to the 1950s. 1850s. this nomination holds out the threats of devastating consequences it is a blatant attempt by this administration to shift the balance of the court for decades. and to reverse decades of progress. i believe with all my heart that the test of any society is how we treat the most vulnerable among us. right now, my friends. our country is failing that test. they are trying to rip the heart out of america. rachel: i can't let that go by without quoting her. i believe that the test of

any society is how we treat the most vulnerable among us. it seems to me like all that time that hillary spent drinking chardonnay and walking in the woods she has become a pro-lifer. that is precisely the defense for life protecting the most vulnerable among us. pete: that's right. and, you know, just unbelievable, 1850s, what is she implying. rachel: slavery. todd: racists. we all hate women and we all want enslavery. pete: it's hyperbole that no one can buy. todd: let's not forget a number of leading scholars have endorsed brett kavanaugh. pete: great point. todd: headlines, a paragliding protesting greets president trump. green peace flew over the president's turn berry hotel banner trump well below par resist. that's a golf reference for those of you at home.

sun comes up ♪

think that they are going to indict individual ice agents because of policies at the border. >> this is a scare tactic. >> you can tell it's scaring the left right now. what they are trying to do is trying to individually target agents in order for

agents to be scared to not do their job. this isn't going to work. pete: yeah, exactly. i liken it to my own experience okay, could you actually bring charges against an individual soldier doing his job what's the basis for this and as you mentioned will it effect at all conduct of ice officers. >> it won't. if you are an agent or officer out in the field and you are doing your job and doing it right, the agency is going to cover your back. but not only do you have the agency, you have the u.s. attorney's office that will act as your lawyer to represent you. if this is just a tactic, it's a scare. but,. pete: you said doing your job and doing it right. of course, if an ice agent were to be extra judicial, working outside the law. not following the law, then, of course there is reason for recourse and handling it internally. talking about ice agent doing their job based on the guidance they have been given within the laws of the united states of america. you say it's a scare tactic,

but could there -- you know, could it still tie the agency up in a legal process? >> yes. and that's what's going to happen. there is going to be so many laws against some officers. and some agents that it's going to affect the performance of their official duties. and it's going to affect the system. pete: now, doctor, we reached out to cornell law. we have not received a statement. now, part of the other -- you know, way they have been gone at this is it's not just ice agents but contractors working with ice. as we know, in the military the same thing. there are contracts out with individuals who aren't government employees. is there more of a basis to go after contractors in their support of ice? >> well, look what happens if you go after a contractor. all -- whoever owns that contract is going to raise the price of that contract in order to offset legal fees, hence, it's going to effect the taxpayer. going to come right around to the taxpayer and to the person that's working for the government. pete: jason, where does this end?

this unprecedented public assault on an agency that enforces our laws? where does it go? >> there is going to be more frivolous lawsuits. there is going to be more of this type of activity. look, they targeted people's families, agents and officers' families with the abolish ice movement. and they targeted our job. and now they are trying to get them into the legal system. it's just not going to end. pete: yeah. well, thankfully they have a president, an administration that has their backs 100 percent. i don't feel like these lawsuits are going anywhere. dr. piccolo, thank you for your time. >> you got it. pete: plaques honoring our service members. just stolen from a cemetery: out of bounds comparison for the trump/summit. >> kind of like lebron james playing basketball against my kid. this is a frightening, frightening thing. >> which one is lebron and which one is the kid?

probe. pete: against 12 russian intel officers for meddling in the 2016 election. rachel: not charged though, americans. >> there is no allegation in this indictment that any american citizen committed a crime. there is no allegation that the conspiracy changed the vote count or affected any election result. the special counsel's investigation is ongoing. pete: here to react dan bongino former nypd officer, former secret service agent and the host of the appropriately named dan bongino show. dan, a lot to unpack there first, what do you make of the fact that no americans were indicted? >> yeah, pete. i scoured the entire indictment yesterday, you know, so you all wouldn't -- a lot of viewers wouldn't have to. there is no collusion in there. i can't emphasize this enough. we have been told for a better part of a year right now that donald trump and his team colluded with the russians to alter the result of the u.s. election. right? we have been hammered that by the media, by liberals.

there is no where in the document does it say anything like that. as a matter of fact, the only even hint of anything even remotely awry with someone not even associated with the trump team is on page 16 where it says that someone who knew someone in the trump team emailed someone that some of these documents were pretty standard that these people had hacked. that's it. that's all it says. pete: that's it. dan, what do you make of the timing? did it have to come on friday before the president meets with vladimir putin? it just feels like typical stuff. >> yeah, pete, i'm glad you brought this up. there are obviously a lot of people me included who think the mueller probe is a witch-hunt there is no there there. this is being done this investigation is being used to tarnish the reputation of donald trump. if you are looking to be a nonpartisan above the fray actor in this like bob mueller should be and rod rosenstein, then why would you do that? why would you announce it on a friday? listen that may appeal to red meat liberals look we

got trump, we got him again he is going on helsinki summit and we are going to announce these russian actors trying to infiltrate our election. to the people you need to convince, middle america who may be persuadable somehow this is an above the fray investigation, you just lost just about everybody. the timing of this could not have been more atrocious. pete: exactly right. rachel: dan, how could the president use this timing to advantage in this meeting? >> bingo, yes! that's where i was going yes. it's tv so have you got to talk in quit sound bites. this is the perfect time to face-to-face look putin in the eye like the dealmaker we know he is and say listen -- by the way, rachel, the indictment is very substantive. the stuff in there is very serious. the russian part of it is very serious. the collusion part of it is a joke. the russian part is serious. perfect time for him to look him in the eye and say gotcha, we nailed you. here is the information. it's very serious and detailed. what are you going to do about this? if you don't could something

about it, we are not getting rid of these sanctions and you guys are going to suffer a lot worse than we're. todd: i have to admit the acting slitter general under the obama administration disagrees with you. is he a little bit worried that president trump is going to be no match for vladimir putin. here's what he said with jake tapper on cnn. >> trump is going in to this negotiation with our most sophisticated adversary. vladimir putin is not some ordinary guy. this is a sophisticated former kgb agent and trump is not really any of that kind of like lebron janes james playing basketball against my kid. this is a frightening, frightening thing. todd: shrinking violet donald trump is not going to do well according to that individual. >> these guys are so pathetic. laugh here. lebron james against his kid? more like buster douglas against mike tyson is what it is. it's an chronically under estimated guy in donald trump that keeps managing to win. listen, let's talk turkey here. who is really winning here?

this nor stream two pipeline that the russians desperately need to save their economy. donald trump just went to nato and nearly put the kibosh on that thing with the germans. he instructed the u.s. military to wipe out a bunch of russian mercenaries in syria a little while ago. who is really winning here? by the way, vladimir putin had to rig an election to win it and steal money to get his billion dollars. donald trump actually did it as a capitalist and won the presidency with zero political background whatsoever. you may want to rethink that stupid analogy media guy, infected deeply with t.d.s. pete: your analogy way better of buster douglas shoutout this morning. >> we love buster. pete: we do. dan bongino, thank you for your time this morning. rachel: thank, dan. todd: steve cohen walking back ridiculous comments to fbi peter strzok. who is he blaming? he is blaming us. >> another network that's named for a four legged

with you. do you think trump should cancel the meeting with putin? >> well, i think he should certainly consider canceling it. i mean, obviously, this was an attack on our sovereignty and our most important institution, which is our democracy. so i definitely think that he should think of canceling it. if not, he needs to make serious preconditions before this meeting particularly to turn over those 12 indicted can russian meddlers. that certainly needs to happen. todd: jonna, before i get to you i want to ask you about president's response. this was in england. take a listen. >> will would he be talking about meddling and i will absolutely bring that up. i don't think you'll have any gee, i did it, i did it, you got me. there won't be a perry mason here, i don't think. but you never know what happens. right? but i will absolutely, firmly ask the question.

to arm teachers in every school. details on the ground breaking move coming up. president trump wants pick for the supreme court facing major backlash from his alma mater he went there twice under and law school. they are not supporting him. they say people will die if brett kavanaugh gets confirmed. that's up next.

pete: welcome back. yale law school facing backlash after praising president trump support nominee and yale alum brett kavanaugh. rachel: staff and even alumni calling for the school to walk back its praise in an open letter writing, quote: people will die if he is confirmed. we hope you agree your sacrifice would be worth it. please use your authority and platform to expose the stakes of this moment and the threat that judge kavanaugh poses. pete: he is a threat. yale law school and campus reform correspondent emily hall is here to react. emily, thanks for being here this morning. let me show a little bit of the original press release that yale put out. and it said in part, quote:

i admired him for serving as a teacher and mentor from a student one of the deans there terrific judge i love his opinions smart, thoughtful and clear. another professor at yale. these coming out and saying this is a qualified guy yet others saying people are going to die. >> exactly. so we have our professors that came out in support of this nominee because judge kavanaugh has been a really valuable member of the yale law school community for many years. and i think they are logical people. i was nervous about going to yale law school because of the notoriety of how liberal the school is, but i was very impressed to see that my professors were willing to stand up even against their own partisan interest to support a nominee who is very clearly qualified for the position. unfortunately, i have been really disappointed in my peers who aren't willing to do the same thing and support people regardless of their partisan affiliation. it's disappointing that they won't acknowledge the real

accomplishments of judge kavanaugh and the importance of the nonpartisanship of the judiciary. rachel: emily, i want you to hear this treat from former democratic aid brian sal alan. progressives should keep a list of names of the sellouts at yale and elsewhere who are right now trying to smooth a path for overturning roe and getting of the new deal. they should be unwelcomed in future democratic administrations. what's your reaction to that? >> i think, unfortunately, this is really indicative of the political climate today. when people try to contribute to making the judiciary a more nonpartisan venture and supporting people across partisan lines, based on their qualifications, rather than just their ideology, they are put on these blacklists by democratic operatives that, you know, are trying to make things into everything must be politicized today. pete: um-huh. >> this is something that we see students taking after these democratic leaders. we also have seen this at

the very high level of democratic leadership with chuck schumer saying that, you know, all trump nominees would be opposed by the democratic leadership regardless of who they were before one was named. campus reform.org did a video i know have you seen on "fox & friends" the students before the nominee was named was calling this a nominee a racist. even though there was no nominee. pete: the unknown nominee was a racist even though it wasn't known. routinely acknowledge high profile nominations of our alumni. we did the exact same thing not so long ago when justice sonia sotomayor of 1979 received her nomination. so, yale simply saying she was a liberal. we liked her. he is more conservative. we like him because he went to yale. so they are, of course, just supporting their own institution. >> absolutely. it's in their interest to support their own alums. unfortunate students aren't willing to allow the university to be a nonpolitical actor incidents

like these are why we see some liberal universities today. when a university engages in activities like, this which are really not partisan at all they get backlash from their own students, from their own alums telling them they must be more liberal actors. pete: absolutely. it's not often that on saturday morning i wake up and praise yale. but good for you this morning, yale. emily hall, thank you for your time this morning. we appreciate it. >> thank you so much for having me. pete: you got it keep it up. coming up, what happens when sean hannity confronts anti-trump protesters in london? >> what specifically don't you like about trump? >> i don't like his policies. >> what policies? >> all of them. pete: all of them. and that's just thear beginning.

in a new 29-page indictment the doj released yesterday the russia special counsel draws a direct link between vladimir putin's government and election meddling. the indictment charges 12 russian military intel officers with conspiring to interfere with the 2016 presidential election. specifically, they are accused of hacking and releasing emails from the clinton campaign, the dnc, and dccc. both the deputy attorney general and the white house taking care yesterday to point out one particular element of the indictment. >> there was no allegation in this indictment that any american citizen committed a crime. there is no allegation that the conspiracy changed the vote count or affected any election result. the special counsel's investigation is ongoing. >> while these charges send a clear or strong message, experts say the reality is that the russians are highly unlikely to extradite any of their officials to the u.s. for prosecution. the president himself tweeting just an hour ago,

quote: the stories you heard about the 12 russians yesterday took place during the obama administration. not the trump administration. why didn't they do something about it, especially when it was reported that president obama was informed by the fbi in september before the election. now, this special counsel bombshell comes just two and a half days before president trump is slated to meet with putin one-on-one in helsinki. it's a high stakes summit and there is a lot on the president's agenda everything from iran to the syrian civil war to the new start nuclear treaty or whom of the hot button issues just to name a few. guys. pete: gillian, take your time. one small correction for gillian highly unlikely, i will correct that and go with zero percent that the russians actually send us one of their 12 -- their form of the cia agents who tried to hack -- who did hack into democratic servers and i pointed out last hour john podesta should have had a better password than password and hillary clinton probably shouldn't have brought a server off the

books. todd: bringing things to basic elements zero. somebody else who is really good at that because she is an amazing writer kim strassel. she broke this down exactly what happened yesterday. basically crystallized what everybody is thinking with regard to this indictment. here's what she had to say on the ingraham angle. >> what was missing from all of those comments is the realization that yes, there is this new indictment engaged in 12 people. but, none of it had to do with collusion. i think this is the one disingenuous aspect of the mueller probe. is he spending 95% of his time looking to unravel plots of russian infiltration here. it would be nice if i could come out and make that clear. because, the press certainly doesn't want to go there. the democrats, they still are obsessing in every day, making it out to sound as though there is an imminent arrest of a trump official coming at any moment. todd: that is an amazing

point that she said. mueller should just come out and say, look, this is all in regard to russians involved in the russia investigation. so far, the president has called this a witch-hunt. i think he would be better served to call this a witch-hunt with regard to himself. let's face it, russians were implicated, so it's not a total witch-hunt. kim strassel nailed it on the head right there, come out and say this doesn't involve the administration. otherwise, the media runs with it, even though there is no evidence so far of an t. involving the administration. rachel: you really can't stop the left wing media from doing that in the sense that just yesterday the indictment rosenstein said there are no americans that committed any crime. there is zero collusion and still they continue to run with this conspiracy theory. you are right, mueller needs to bring an end to this. bring some clarity. i think that's why what we see right now with some poll numbers just out from fox news about the mueller investigation. do we have the numbers up yet? you see on both the democrat and the republican side

maybe for different reasons, approval for mueller's investigation is dropping. todd: down 7% since june. the way the american people perceive this investigation, less than 50% now approve of it. and as you mentioned, democrats dropped in their support even more. because they have been clinging like literally clinging to the side of the cliff praying that bob mueller will be their savior to take downtown trump administration by finding that somehow the campaign had colluded with russia. yesterday's nonsense -- it's not nonsense. you know what's true? i have another prop. russia sucks. okay? we know that russia tries to influence our election. we know they are not our friend. we know they are our foe. vladimir putin is a thug. got it. when are we going to stop with this idiocy that ultimately we are in bed with them, trump was. and that's why he won. and that's why these poll numbers are going down because it's clear, hey, they did bad things, but it's -- hillary clinton lost because hillary clinton was a bad candidate not because

russia did it. todd: to both of those points i think it's clear from poll numbers we need to come together as a nation. the media doesn't seem to want to be on that path in coming together. one way they try to undermine president trump at every turn is by their thoughts on his summit with president putin over there in russia. they seem to say there is no way is he going to be able to handle himself. here is just a snippet of the comments yesterday when the news of the indictment came out. >> how do you do that? how does he sit down with vladimir putin. >> he never should have taken the meeting to begin with. >> this is a crucial moment. will this president call putin to account and make him answer for his crimes? will he defend american democracy? >> he has no idea what he is going in to. it also tells me should not be meeting with putin. >> it's stunning to me that there isn't a larger chorus here to at least postpone it. >> the russian intention was to sow dissent in the united

states mission accomplished. pete: we are going to drop this on a friday before a meeting with vladimir putin. i actually thinks it plays into trump's hand. makes him stronger in that meeting. they are trying to make him look bad, rachel. rachel: they absolutely are i think the media, taking the wrong headline from all of this and they are calling for the president not to have this meeting on the other hand, senator lindsey graham saying he has a lot of faith in the president. >> i have a lot of faith in president trump, you know, bush misread putin. putin ran over obama cause he was so weak. president trump needs to convince president putin that he wants a better relationship but things have to change to get it. at the end of the day, putin doesn't respect trump, this will be a failed summit. i believe that president trump is going to lay out what a good relationship will look like and if he fails to get there, that trump is going to convince him, unlike bush, unlike obama, you will pay a price on my watch.

rachel: i was going to say, pete, i think what's not being talked about at all is what happened in nato and how that plays into what's going to happen in helsinki. donald trump not barack obama donald trump has made america number one producer of gas. on other way to becoming the number one producers in oil. and donald trump basically said at nato, hey, germany, stop your deal with your gas pipeline with russia. how about getting your gas and oil from america? how about coming to north dakota. they didn't invade crimea. they are not threatening europe. that would be a huge blow to the russians who are depending on that money. pete: that's a great point. and that's important coming from lindsey graham a guy not always complimentary of this administration. also really focused on foreign policy. he lays out george w. bush didn't get it barack obama totally failed on it and trump has a new opportunity. when you don't sit down and talk to people, nothing happens the policies of this

administration have been strong on russia. todd: do you know who gave the president compliments for his work with nato? can i have a visual, pete? the failing "new york times." basically echoed everything we just said. not today but yesterday saying did he a great job at nato. take that for what it's worth. turning now to your headlines if i can learn how to talk. a pair gliding protester greets president trump in scotland. the man from the environmental activist group green peace flew over the hotel with the banner trump well below par, resist. more anti-trump protests expected today after hundreds hit the streets on friday. state trooper shot several times during a traffic stop is recovering this morning. michigan state police say the driver took off running, shooting a gun after getting pulled over. pulled fire killing the suspected gunman. two others riding in the car taken into custody that trooper expected to be okay. a florida on high alert after not one but two shark attacks just minutes apart.

todd: so what implications could this have for strzok in the russian investigation florida congressman and gubernatorial candidate ron desantis joins us now. reaction to lisa page's comments on the hill. it wasn't all negative. there was actually some positivity coming out of republican mouths with regard to what she said. >> well, it's because she was actually willing to answer questions. i mean with peter strzok, as you guys saw on national tv as we had seen when we did the deposition of him, it was like pulling teeth. he was always very coy. he didn't want to really answer a lot of the questions he claims he wanted to but said he just wasn't able to. so, the cooperation was much different. and i think when she comes back on monday, hopefully we will get all the rest of the questions answered. and i think strzok's testimony really left a lot of americans frustrated because he was not honest. he was not credible in explaining his actions. and, yet, he is still on the payroll of the fbi. why is he still getting a

paycheck from the american taxpayer? he should not be there anymore. he doesn't have credibility. and he needs to move on. and, obviously, he may have to face additional justice beyond that. but it's just amazing that he is still there. pete: it sure is we will get to that in a second. lisa page on monday testifying publicly if not should she? >> no, it's going to be continuation of the deposition and, look,. pete: something so much more powerful -- peter strzok being out in the open, exposing himself for who he is. it's powerful and cleansing for the american public is there any way to get the candor of lisa page before cameras? >> well, i have been a big supporter of releasing the transcripts if you are going to do a deposition. the difference between the deposition, pete is as you saw at the hearing, it can kind of become a circus like atmosphere. have you five minutes to question. in a deposition, you actually let people develop a line of questions. it's just a different

format. sometimes that format is better, but i think at a minimum the transcript needs to be released to the american people, absolutely. rachel: congressman, you mentioned that peter strzok is still on the fbi payroll. he also still has a security clearance. who is to blame for that? is that the trump administration? pete: the fbi? rachel: who is to blame for that? >> i think we need to know, he had the security clearance at least for the purpose of reviewing documents to prepare for the hearing. and so i think what we just need to figure out was it a limited clearance just so he could prepare himself? that's one thing. if he still has his security clearance after all of this, that's obviously a huge problem. because there are people who have their security clearances yanked for doing far less than peter strzok has done. and it just kind of find into thifeedsinto this thing. he still has a job. why isn't he being held accountable. the fbi needs to answer the question. pete: how could he be held

accountable. watch his answers and nonanswers. how do you hold a guy like peter strzok accountable? >> well, in the congress if witnesses are just nonresponsive we can move to hold them in contempt of congress. that's a legitimate use of our authority. i have been arguing we needed to use that in other tools. we have not necessarily had a critical mass. maybe the frustration out of strzok people will say okay, we had these 10 questions that you hemmed and hawaiied about. yoand -- hawedabout. if you have a sanction, then people will comply. if they know they can get away with it like lois learner did with the irs, then they will continue to do this stuff. pete: absolutely. ron desantis, congressman from florida maybe a future governor. thank you for your time. >> thank you. pete: you got it this store manager was fired right there after stopping an armed shoplifter. the decision sparking nationwide outrage. we have got an update coming up. todd: plus, what happens when sean hannity confronts

so, i think he should keep the meeting. but, it is a mystery why is he taking the meeting in the first place and giving putin a one-on-one audience when everywhere else he has attacked our friends and allies in public. so because the trump administration has not put out any formal agenda, priorities, goals or anything that would normally come before a meeting of this nature we just have to speculate. we don't know why they are meeting. we don't know what he is going to ask. we don't know what's going to come of it. todd: john, isn't there an underlying notion of regardless shouldn't we support our president just like many conservatives should have supported obama when he was trying to enact foreign policy and protect our country? >> you are exactly right. and, he should be meeting and he does have an agenda. there is an an american first policy that trump has always had that's working. and the democrats are trying to derail that success because they want to democrats first policy. and they have liberal allies in the media that want to undermine that. and what you have seen is

the president this week. he got nato to increase defense spending $30 billion. so the russians don't run them over like they did obama with the ukraine. he also went at marco for taking natural gas from russia and spending billions to build a pipeline. they can buy natural gas from the united states. so the president's america first policy is succeeding. and he is going to make that case with who is, without a doubt, a rival who is trying to underminus. todd: march sharks i will ask you to speak for all democrats with this next question. we have heard all democrats say he shouldn't do it. we heard you say yeah, but the train is out of the station. go for the meeting. but you just said two seconds ago you didn't think he should go in the first place. what is the democrat concern? what is your fear that he will do? >> we don't know what he'll do. and that is the concern. you know, and we are -- all of us are watching this week on this split screen moment where in the same week you had 12 indictments come out. so what he could be doing is

pure speculation at this point you know, hopefully it's not just a bro love fest and hopefully we see some serious things come out of this. you know, russia has proven that they have interfered with our democracy and our election. so, hopefully trump will be putting that america first agenda to say, look, americans will decide our elections, not russians. todd: okay, but marcia, isn't there is a sense of unpredictability in life? that's actually a question for john. john, isn't there just an air of unpredictability in life? like i don't know what's going to happen in the next segment but i still do the segment. >> i will tell you you what the concern is about. the democrats' concern is about the november election. this president has had a net gain of 10 points on job approval. our last survey had him 48 approve. 48 disapprove. with that he is bringing up the republican vote for congress. everybody is saying the blue wave is disappearing. and what's happening is we have the republicans tied with the democrats at 44. president trump's success is lifting up the republicans. that's what the democrats

are trying undermine. that's what they are trying to stop. because, if he makes america stronger in national security, it gives them one less issue that they can talk about this november election. todd: guys, thanks so much. good discussion. we are going to see you. obviously going to be a wild next 72 hours. we will see what happens there in hell sinky. marsha and john thank you. >> thank you. todd: are you saving for retirement? are you saving enough? weave we've got the tips you need to hear with regard to your 401(k). that's coming up. ♪ lessness, it's gas! gas-x relieves pressure, bloating and discomfort... fast! so we can all sleep easier tonight. you might or joints.hing for your heart... but do you take something for your brain. with an ingredient originally found in jellyfish, prevagen is the number one selling brain-health supplement in drug stores nationwide. prevagen. the name to remember.

rachel: welcome back. so, are you saving for retirement and how do you know if you are saving enough? pete: good question. new data from the vanguard investment group shows the

average 401(k) has just about 1,000 bucks in it but that may not be enough. >> if you are not saving enough, what can do you and can the soaring economy impact your savings. pete: this is a segment i need. here to weigh in is heather, thanks for being here this morning. if the economy is benefiting you and your family or you are in an opportunity where can you finally stash some away, how do we do better on 401(k) and on savings? >> well, pete, that's a good question. you can first talk to fox and see if you get an employer match on your 401(k) that's very important personal contributions, 18,500 a year. if you are under 50 and if you are over 50, can you actually contribute up to 24,500. this can add up very quickly, if you can't max that out right now, pete, then you want to set a minimum contribution away from paycheck every pay period of 3% to at least start that 401(k) and get it going. rachel: thanks to trump and

the g.o.p. we are now living in record breaking good economic times. so, how can living in this period of time economically with wages rising and so forth, how can that help us get a jump start on saving and how much should would he be saving given that incomes are rising? >> so, president trump's tax cuts are really fueling this economy, the stock market is doing very well. home prices are up. if you check out your home price on zillow or your 401(k) you notice that the price of your assets is going up. those are unrealized gains though. so you want to be careful. there is this thing called the wealth effect. meaning the better you feel psychologically about your money, even though you haven't sold your house and you are not going to tap into your 401(k) until you are 59 and a half, the more you spend. i think it's very important. have you got to be careful. use this money from things like tax cuts and the stock market going up to put towards your 401(k) and retirement savings. that's what you want to do. it's very important. pete: heather, is there such a thing as too late to save?

let's say you are coming to this game left 401(k) or savings. what is the best vehicle later on in life to give to to try to maximize retirement outcome? >> it's never too late to save, pete. even if you are in your 40's, if you max out the 401(k) contribution at 18,500 a year, 7% stock market average annual return, you have a nest egg of $1.75 million in 30 years. so that's the beauty of compounding and that's a lot of money that you will have for you and your family. so i am assuming you will be doing that pete. pete: heather, last question. >> i'm sure rachel already has. pete: rachel is good to go. what about bit coin. i got the bit coin. i'm banking on it. >> if you have bit coin, i think that's a great trading vehicle or if you like to gamble in vegas or on horses at the track, you know, hold on to bit coin but over the long run not for retirement. rachel: sounds like though this is a good opportunity for people to start, if they

haven't already, and also i think both of us can agree it's a good time to get a couple on the same page about the goal for saving, correct? >> sure, it is. it definitely is. so talk to your spouse and you can do it for your families. start now if you haven't. pete: great point. rachel: thank you so much, heather u great point. everyone knows that jan brady is one of the most iconic middle children of all times. >> well, all i hear all day long at school all day long how great marcia is this at this or how great marcia did that. marcia, marcia, marcia. rachel: is the middle child from danger of becoming extinct. pete: we will bring it to you. is the russian indictment designed to embarrass trump in time for his summit with vladimir putin. ♪ i just want to be okay today ♪ (director) cut!

live in scott land with the latest this morning. kevin, good to see you. >> and great to be with you guys as always from beautiful scotland. let me just tell you, yes, the president will have those meetings and, he is going to get in a bit of golf. wouldn't you get in golf new a resort not far from here. obviously back here in scotland. as is also his tradition on weekends, the president is up early and weighing in on the news of the day or in this case actually making a bit of news. let me take tout social media platform of his choice and see what he has to say about yesterday's big announcement about rod rosenstein. the president saying this, you heard about the 12 russians yesterday took place during the obama administration, not the trump administration. why didn't they do something about it, especially when it was reported that president obama was informed by the fbi in september, before the election? now, that is a familiar criticism, one the obama administration has pushed back on previously. but, one thing is for certain, according to the deputy attorney general, rod rosenstein. >> there is no allegation in

this indictment that any american citizen committed a crime. there is no allegation that the conspiracy changed the vote count or affected any election result. special counsel's investigation is ongoing. >> okay. so did you see that? no americans cited. now, that's the important distinction, obviously. one we have been hearing about for quite some time. meanwhile the president will not only be here in scott land, folks, having some meetings and playing a bit of golf. he will be doing a great deal of preparation for that big summit, okay, it's a bilateral, if you will, with russian president vladimir putin. of course, we will have all the continuing coverage and we will join you again in our next hour from beautiful windy scotland right here along the banks of the river clyde. it is gorgeous, guy. if you haven't been here, you should come. back to you. todd: i rye really want to go to scotland. looks awesome. pete: kevin corke always bringing the heat and doing it in style. todd: that's our cor corke.

>> this is a witch-hunt, we never colluded. the russians attempted to meddle and interfere. they don't like us, use theiusetools at their disposal. indicting 12 russian spies in russia knowing they will never come here is a nonevent. they will never come here. not going to actually enforce this indictment u so it really show what is do they have at this point? >> a tweet that kevin read i think is a very important one. it shows that there was a degree of negligence on the part of the obama administration on -- and, remember, this would not be the first time that the obama administration and president obama himself under estimated a threat to the american people. remember, he called isis a jv team. turned out to be not a jv team at all. and our president right now is cleaned that problem up. you know, this happened under obama and he did not

tell the trump campaign or the clinton campaign that there was a very real threa threat. pete: dismissive during the campaign. todd: with that as the back group. you both have kids. i'm sure there are bullies in school. do you tell them to run from the bully or confront the bully to move on. pete: of course the answer itself. todd: the democrats, nancy pelosi disagree with you two. they say trump should get out of this meeting. here is what she has to say. the trump-putin meeting must be cancelled. the president must finally put the integrity of our democracy before the interest of putin. rachel: schumer also saying glad handing with putin on the heels of these dimes woulof theseindictments would bn insult to our democracy. pete: provide hard evidence that russian intel agents attacked america to boost their favorite candidate, undermine others and influence our elections. president trump cancel your

ridiculous putin summit and get your butt on the plane back to the united states u not to mention the timing of this. want to talk about what did she say in there? undermining and influencing things you? think maybe bob mueller dropped this to undermine or influence on the friday before the russian summit? maybe he wants to be a part of that news cycle? force president trump's hand and ironically as we have talked about this morning. the revelation of this actually does strengthen president trump's hand. he gets to walk in there and say we know who you guys are. we know what they did. you know we didn't collude, that wasn't the point. admit it and let's have some consequences. >> we are not going to release these sanctions. they are trying to make our own intelligence services at certain levels are trying to make president trump look bad. but he actually -- they actually strengthen. rachel: they also don't point out that president trump is entering into the summit from a position of strength. our economy has never been better. wow. what a position of strength. and also, our energy. we have energy dominance. that is a very real threat

to the russians. todd: rachel, you made a great point earlier. another position of strength. look at what he just did with nato that no other president can do. all other presidents said nato, have you got it pay your fair share. president trump went over there and said no, you need to literally start paying your fair share. got the resources up and going in there with a position of strength. let's remember what nato's job is it's to counteract russia and president putin. that's what president trump did. it's a position of strength. you literally can watch every mainstream media. nobody says that it's like they are blind to that fact. pete: like they are all leftist. todd: they are and that's why the president calls them out for what they are. that's why bob mueller's credibility has gone down and down and down and new fox news poll came out yesterday. showing the american people. less than 50% of you, of us, approve of bob mueller's investigation. that's down 7 points since june. and that's down over 10 points amongst democrats who i think are frustrated.

their savior isn't going to deliver collusion or obstruction. instead is indicting russians who deserve to be indicted and dismissed. but, nothing on that collusion thing. so bob mueller. wonder what he is going to pack up shop. rachel: nothing on collusion now moving on to ice. democrats calling to abolish ice. >> look at ice. what a group of incompetent tense. >> get rid of it. start over. reimagine it. >> ice has strayed so far from its mission. what it's turned into is frankly a terrorist organization of its own. pete: this is familiar stuff. this is not new. we have played this sound before. you know not even just radicals on the left. the left is talking about abolishing ice. the common sense of american people weighs in. this new fox news poll revealing that people don't believe that the abolishing of ice makes sense at all. in fact, 18% favor it. 42% oppose u and 39% are unsure. and that right-hand column. amongst those actually familiar with ice, i don't

know if we can put that back up because i don't have the numbers. i guess i have them in my packet. 27% favor. 57% oppose. if you actually know what ice does, overwhelmingly the american people say abolishing ice, bad idea. rachel: democrats, congressman marco camp from madison, a very, very liberal place, by the way a city that gave their keys to the city to fidel castro. he is the one that wrote this bill. kevin mccarthy, the house minority leader -- majority deputy whip, i'm sorry, says that he is going to put this bill forwarde forward. pete: we're going to let the liberal abolish ice bill go to the floor to show the democrats would actually vote for it. rachel: the democrats are going whoa whoa whoa we didn't mean it. todd: even the sponsor we are not going to vote for it rhetoric. like voting for something, that's actually. pete: that's a bipartisan disease. both sides often are good at saying we want to repeal

obamacare not in the house. i know the house did it a lot of people love to yell about things don't love to do it. good for fundraising or campaigning. not talking about sean duffy from wisconsin. todd: turning now to headlines a pair gliding protester greets president trump in scotland. check this out. the man from the environmental group green peace flew over trump's turn berry with a message trump. starting as we speak. you see him? i don't see him. i guess they are there. this after hundreds hit the streets on friday. we now know the i'd tiff the army soldier killed in battle in afghanistan. army sergeant first class christopher selles being remembered as a national treasure. the 32-year-old from south carolina was in 7th total deployment. the decorated soldier

serving with the ranger regiment, a father, he was a husband. this marks the second american service member death in afghanistan in less than a week. former fbi lawyer lisa page grilled by republicans in a closed door meeting. some g.o.p. lawmakers, in fact, praising her cooperation, florida congressman ron desantis joined us earlier to weigh in. >> he was actually willing to answer questions. i mean, with peter strzok it was like pulling teeth. he was always very coy. so the cooperation was much different. and i think when she comes back on monday, hopefully we will get all the rest of the questions answered. todd: you'll recall that page and peter strzok openly bashed president trump in text messages before the 2016 campaign. strzok and before congress in a wildly combative 10-hour public hearing on thursday. remember that? pete: i sure do. moving on, check your closet. dale earnhardt fans -- junior wants something that you may own. i didn't understand it those details are come up.

todd: he wants your stuff. is the timing of the new russian indictment as pete has been raising all morning long designed to embarrass president trump before his summit with putin? charlie hurt, this time in a ty, is htie. rachel: still in seersucker ♪ you're going my way ♪

♪ that's confident. but it's not kayak confident. kayak searches hundreds of travel and airline sites

to find the best flight for me. so i'm more than confident. how's your family? kayak. search one and done.

should be no one-on-one meeting between this president and mr. putin. >> trump is going in to this negotiation with our most sophisticated adversary. vladimir putin is not some ordinary guy. this is a frightening, frightening thing. pete: well, democrats

calling for president trump to cancel his meeting with vladimir putin following the indictment of 12 russian intelligence officers for meddling in our election. todd: obviously the big question today what about this timing? rachel: so here to react "washington times" opinion editor and fox news contributor charles hurt. charles? >> good morning. thanks for having me. rachel: that do you think about the timing? >> i will tell you it's sad. because, when i first heard the news i thought to myself this is good news. we are going to indict 12 russians for meddling in the election. but the more you think about it and the more you consider all of the ways that the fbi has managed to politicize itself and put itself in this terrible position whether it's the peter strzok hearings the day before or the -- or just the whole thing of spying on a political opponent at the height of an election, oh my goodness. you know, it really does raise questions. and it's terrifying. these are very, very serious questions. that should alarm every

american. and the fact that there isn't a peep from a single democrat in congress, that has concerns about any of this is pretty terrifying. pete: is rosenstein absolutely completely tone deaf to the timing of it. do you think this is bob mueller and rosenstein and others saying hey the more president trump you try to discredit this investigation and call it a witch-hunt here you go friday before you meet with putin dropping it. >> you would think at some point he would sort of wise up. to me the most astonishing thing about that whole press conference was when at the end of it, after he described the indictments, he then launched into this 10-minute lecture about politics and the fbi being above politics and how we need to -- we need to mensd the differences in this country. i'm like why are you giving a political speech at the end of this -- just stick to the indictments. that's all i care about from you. rachel: i don't know if it's really working. i will tell you what. i live in middle america, i don't think people are focused on this. >> a agree. rachel: people are focused on what he did in the nato

meeting. i think middle america looked at that and said this is guy that is fighting for me. is he not looking out for his foundation. is he not looking out for sneaking fees in the future. is he actually looking out for the american taxpayer. i think that's what really is rest signatureating with americans. not this stuff. >> in a weird way i think in a political sense it sort of helps these indictments. help trump. because it reminds everybody that here we have what we hope is a serious investigation. juxtaposed to this -- pete: hope it's a serious investigation. >> juxtaposed against this ridiculous thing the mueller probe that trying to find russia collusion between -- it's just all so ridiculous. i do think most people are not paying attention to this stuff. pete: they are paying attention t brett kavanaugh's confirmation. democrats saying going after him. you follow capitol hill. how is that confirmation process looking right now. >> is he going to be confirmed. obviously, you can't say for

certain. they are going to dig up every piece of dirt that they can find. buying tickets to the nats games, i don't think that's going to disqualify him. just a hunch on my part. todd: wasn't ruth bader ginsburg the great liberal justice we should not evaluate supreme court nominees on a would or could evaluate them on the cases that have been in front of them. the liberals are completely ignoring rbg. >> not only that, they are also ignoring the fact that on specification cases what we're looking for is temperament and do they follow the law? if you just stick to those two things you are fine. pete: not ignoring your seersucker. you do it well, sir. >> thank you. good to see you. pete: well, she is back and she is scared. hillary clinton sounding the alarm about the president's dooming supreme court pick. >> i used to worry that they wanted to turn the clock back to the 1950s. now i worry they want to turn it back to the 1850s.

she says 1850s. what in the world could she be implying? >> yeah. we are turning back the clock apocalypse for america that a respected supreme court nominee who has been praised by academics on all sides of the aisle for his commitment to the rule of law is on the cusp of joining the supreme court. there has probably been a run on paper bags this past week or so given the hyper ventilations that we have seen from every last one of the far leftist in the democratic party. i think that's what's been most useful, guys. is that woul we're seeing the true colors. the mainstream media is always labeling mainstream american thought as quote, unquote. far right. but, whether we're talking about the accomplish ice radicals, or all of these fill in the blank placard

resistance, we are going to oppose any nominee brought to the table by president trump, extremist, these are far leftists, and if they keep their mouths running the way they are, whether it's hillary clinton or her ache lights who are now going to spend $5 million to oppose brett kavanaugh, this is nothing but good news for the republican party. todd: michelle, to your point, we have seen just in the last 48 hours or so a number of democratic senators in, let's call it mainstream america saying hold your horses, schumer, we're going to decide this nominee based upon our own convictioned, based upon what our constituents want, not based upon some liberal ideology that you and nancy pelosi are shoving down our throats. >> yeah. so there are a few sane democrats out there. and their sanity, of course, comes from the looming mid terms and 2020. and i suppose there are a few of them out there that understand that the key to g.o.p.'s success is for the party to simply embrace its

base. the key to democrats is to run as far and fast as possible away from these extremists and far leftists. so, yeah, a couple of them will rise up against schumer and, yes, brett kavanaugh will be confirmed but no thanks to these people like, look, have you got brian fallon out there now who is was an operative for hillary clinton who is running this anti-kavanaugh campaign threatening, threatening independent academics now in these institutions who have spoken up for brett kavanaugh's legal integrity. pete: yeah, they will be banished from the democratic party. another thing happening right now is, of course, president trump is in europe. he has a big summit with vladimir putin coming up. and the media has been covering it just like they covered when barack obama went to europe, thankfully we have videotape and the beauty of the way back machine. we will just compare a little bit the way they are covering trump now and how

they covered obama in 2009. listen. >> so, donald trump's trip to the u.k. is going to smoothly, if we all thought, not. [laughter] >> most europeans were going to like whoever replaced president bush. but there is no doubt michelle and her husband have an extra -- >> meeting controversial figures. putin assad, donald trump is now another member of that list. >> what the obamas bring to buckingham palace is a charisma not seen since the kennedys. >> the president making his way across europe and leaving a trail of controversy as he goes. >> saying it again. i'm getting a thrill. [laughter] >> oh, jeesh. >> michelle a genera a general u say. >> yeah. [speaking french. the only french i speak is freak out as the o on

seekousness of the european press and american press for that matter that put everyone's else's interests above our own. can talk and i have talked about how proud i am that we have an american president who stands tall and un apologetic about protecting our interests. contrasting with the apology tour that marked the obama administration. but i also want to make note of how proud i am of our first lady. she is never going to get the accolades, right, of the european press for her style and her panache and her great. but there are so many of us in the american mainstream in the flyover country who will never be represented by these elites, whether it's in the new york media or paris or london. and she serves us very well over these past days in europe. rachel: hats off to her fashion diplomacy. it's really amazing. pete: michelle, thank you. >> not only that but, again, not her style but her

mr. strzok, i don't know where to start. if i could give you a purple heart. i would. you deserve one. this has been an attack on you in a way to attack mr. mueller and the investigation that is to get at russia collusion involved in our election. pete: that was a democrat on thursday saying that peter strzok should receive a purple heart for his testimony. this was after, i think after the democrats had given him a standing ovation. almost nothing to say about that. rachel: it's very revealing. i actually believe that he and other democrats admire what peter strzok has done

to help the mueller investigation. they actually admire that more than what our military does. i think it's actually revealing. he tried to walk this back. i don't think he wants to walk it -- i think he is doing that for political reasons. todd: probably. here is what he had to say. >> i said something at the hearings yesterday about purple hearts, which another network, that's named for a four-legged animal, has been making a big deal about. i regret using the term purple heart. i used it metaphorically not literally. i never thought the purple heart should be given to agent strzok. but i do believe he was being attacked because the fbi and the mueller investigation under attack. todd: obviously calling us out. the reason we made a big deal of it because men and women died and they receive purple hearts. they died defending our freedom. they were injured in battle. the purple heart is not something to be taken lightly. it is a serious honor

reserved for only those who gave so much of themselves for our great nation. what peter strzok did is not that. pete: if you knew what the purple heart was you would never say anything like that. if you appreciated the gravity of it you would never say it if you don't, you don't say something foolish like that. todd: you out there in twitter verse are commenting as you might imagine. todd, that's me. this is a tweet from eve, hogwash, his attempt to take back what he said is more proof that he and his ilk live in a fantasy world of denied election results. pete: well said. sophia tweeted this: now the dems are breaking the purple heart into their politics. very disappointing. respect our military. some lines you just don't cross. well said. todd: turning now to your headlines. 8 ms-13 gang members all in the united states illegally indicted for a string of violent attacks. federal authorities charging them for attempted murder, assault, racketeering, and

counsel's investigation is ongoing. pete: next guest says this proves we never needed a special counsel in the first place. alan dershowitz the author of "the case against impeaching trump." yesterday you saw rosenstein and the charges brought. did the case for impeaching trump get stronger or weaker? >> oh, it got much, much weaker. first, as i prove in my book the case against impeaching trump, you need to have a crime, an actual crime, of course, this indictment doesn't charge any crimes against any americans. this indictment proves any counsel's office in the country could have conducted. this there is no need for a special counsel to do the kind of investigation that led to this indictment. second, this indictment is going nowhere. we're never going to see contested proof. a real trial of these charges because these russians are not going to be

extradited. they are not coming to disney land for vacation where they can be served and arrested this is the end, not the beginning of the accusation. and indictments are merely accusations. they are not proof. no reasonable person can dispute the fact that russia tried to interfere with our election, but that's not the issue. the issue is whether or not the president, the president's campaign or anybody else had anything to do with it we should have had an independent nonpartisan commission looking into the role of russia in the election. so we can prevent in the future. these indictments aren't going to prevent anything. so, i don't think it does us very much good to see these indictments come down. pete: professor, how about the timing of it. it comes the friday before the sunday summit with vladimir putin. is this something that would happen intentionally from the special counsel, from rob rosenstein to get this to sort of muddy the waters of this meeting with vladimir putin? >> >> i don't know what the

purpose was. but justice department regulations preclude using indictments to affect political outcomes. and you would think that since there is no rush on, this since we already know most of the facts from previous indictments, that they could have waited until after the trip was over. it's not the purpose of the justice department to get the president to ask vladimir putin about this. the president said he was going to do it. i think that's a good idea. i'm sure vladimir putin is just going to say no, i had nothing to do with it and russia had nothing to do with it and we are not going to get any more information from this. but, again, it gives rise to the possibility that politics, the thumb of politics is on the scale of justice. this is not the perception we ought to have. pete: still on the scale of politics after everything we saw with peter strzok as well. democratic leadership and a lot of democrats running for president. democrats rank and file said then well, president trump, needs to cancel his summit with vladimir putin. he has got to come back here. what do you make of their

reaction? >> the president of the united states is in charge of conducting foreign policy, whether you agree with him or disagree with him. it's his decision to make. i personally don't see any problem with the president meeting with putin. i hope he raises the question. i hope he raises other important questions about bilateral, multilaurel relationships, that's the job of the president. the minority party doesn't get to make foreign policy or tell the president who to meet with and when to meet. they maybe should have been telling the justice department to delay this release until after the meeting rather than telling the president who to meet with and when. pete: absolutely. last thing, peter strzok in his testimony admitted he was removed from the mueller probe because he says it was the perception of bias. a lot of us think it's the reality of bias. how then can -- president calls them 13 angry democrats. known democrats, known partisans for hillary clinton. one that was at hillary clinton's victory defeat party. is there not a perception of

bias problem in the mueller probe as you juxtapose it to why peter strzok was kicked off? >> well, peter strzok, i go beyond the perception. look, i have been practicing criminal law 53 years. if i ever had somebody like that on a jury, i would strike him meeltd. people don't know how their bias influences their decisions. it's often deeply unconscious. every criminal lawyer knows that. that's why you want a judge, you wants a jury, you want a prosecutor. if i had a client who was being prosecuted by peter strzok, we came up with these messages about my client. i would immediately move for a dismissal of the indictment and i think i would prevail. because it's not only the perception of bias, it's when bias exists and strzok admitted the bias, you can't be sure that it doesn't influence actions and inactions by the person with the bias. pete: all on a work phone but nothing to do with work. alan dershowitz, appreciate your time. >> sure. pete: nancy pelosi wants to be house speaker again.

pete: national middle child day next month. the jan bradies of the world

could be disappearing. pete: the u.s. birth rate now a 30 year low. and millennials are having fewer children. so is the middle child, because we're only having basically two instead of three in danger of becoming extijted. rachel: laura van der kamp is a middle child the mother of four and the author of "off the clock, feel less busy while getting more done." i need that book and she joins us now. so, tell us, laura, why are people having fewer kids? >> yeah, well the number of children per woman has gone down precipitously since the 1950s, used to be almost four per woman. the average family had about four kids, now it's under two. the average family no longer has a middle child. it's really amazing if you think about it. used to be the case. but the most common reason there has been recent surveys coming out people think it's all about economics. the economy is pretty good right now. there are certainly issues with student loan debt and things like that. the most common reason is people say they enjoy their

leisure time and the assumption is that more children will take away from that life experience, i guess. pete: a lot of people say item nothingography is destiny. cultures not replacing themselves and don't birth rate are heading for decline. is this a symbol of culture not willing to invest in the next generation. >> it certainly could be. if you think about what we're talking about leisure time. people watch on average, well, great to be on tv talking about this but four or five hours of t. have a day if you want to preserve that instead of having children is an interesting argument. rachel: if you are watching a lot of tv you don't produce as many children. [laughter] >> the honest truth is that the difference leisure time between parents and non-parents is s. not as big as you might think. i study how people's schedules go and time diaries. non-parents only have about an hour more of leisure time per day when you look over the all demographic as all of people who have children under age 18.

kids take a lot of energy in the first you years. parents of young kids have a lot less leisure time but they do grow up. todd: what does this mean now for the next 30 years. >> certainly if you do have young kids like i do, i guess they have less competition, that's kind of exciting, so my middle children will be doing well with that but, over the long run, things do play out. as you look at the demographics of things like social security. if there is fewer workers supporting retirees. and also just in terms of a vibrant culture. kids are good. rachel: mother teresa saying too many kids is like too many flowers. i have eight i think siblings is one of the best things can you give your child. >> certainly as they grow up, the people we feel most supported by as we get older tend to be the people we have had the longest relationships with is going to be your siblings. pete: thank you very much, laura. rachel: great stuff, laura. pete: right now president trump playing golf in scotland getting ready for big meeting with vladimir putin. the media is already setting

up what will happen. >> how does he sit down with vladimir putin? >> he never should have taken the meeting to begin with. >> this is day that arguably, in the minds of many, may have empowered vladimir putin.y

president trump is gearing up for his monday meeting the vladimir putin. >> the justice department has new charges. >> they indited 12 military offices for conspiring to integeinterfere with the to 16 election. >> i scoured the entire investigation. there was nothing there. >> he was willing to ask question. with peter it was like pulling teeth. >> he's still on the bay role with the fbi.

>> hillary clinton sounding the alarm about the supreme court pick. >> i used to worry they wanted to turn the o'clock back to 1950s now i worry that i want to go back to the 1850s. >> we'll go down a giant water slide. >> whoa. that east the destiny of pete. coming up later on in the hour the question for american.

record, if you railly walk golf can be great exercise. the president is cruisingaround on the golf course. who hasn't done that. fun fact, back in 1930 the president's mom actually immigrated. he's been on twitter talking. he weighted in on big flues about the russians. he said the news you heard about took place during the obama administration or trump administration. why didn't they do anything about it when they said president obama was informed. that's a familiar criticism. we know one thing is clear

according to the deputy rod rossen stein. >> there is no allegation that any american citizen committed a crime. there is no allegation that the conspiracy changed the vote count or effectedny electioned d any result. the investigation is ongoing. >>reporter: that's so important. no americans were charged with a crime. the president and first lady come on her here following an el trip where they met the queen. that i met with theresa may. the first lady stopped at a local hospital. she really connects so well with the children there. she lawn bowled with the children. don't forget preparations on

monday. that preparation is ongoing throughout the weekend. for know, it's golf. >> absolutely. kevin,thank you for your time. we'll brink iwe -- we'll bre other man heroldo. no americans were charged and no collusion to be found. what do you make of the developments. >> first, i want to know what you put in rick's mac and cheese to make him jump in the water with his cloths on? >> that's impressive. >> in golf i'm so bad i keep swinging so i get plenty of exercise. >> the president met with the

queen and it weirded me out. as the professor said there are no americans. this has nothing to do with donald trump. he's been the focus of this collusion il illusion for month. the ill tell against -- intelligence agencies have tried to nail him. this is a -- you look at this ad is what the hell. the chances of putin allowing a bunch of russian spies to be

extradited is ridiculous. this islike the president allowing 12 cia members to go to russia to be indicted. it's flustering. it continues to distract the president of the united states when he has very important business looming with pug putin. >> that's the point. donald trump tweeted this morning that obama knew about this in september of 2016, is that a fair criticism? >> i don't know, rachel. i don't have my cu. we talked about the decline of the birthrate. we have 14 kids between us. >> latinos will save the birthrate. >> so will immigration. i don't want pete to get angry.

>> with this putin meeting this is an important meeting. the thing is if the department of justice timed this to undermined the status of the standing of the president when he comes to meet with the russian ultimate. i ai may be naive about this bui think this was a coincidence. i think everything was conhave ad to the president. it's notlike he was caught blind sided when he went to nato. he knew it was coming down. i think to try to factor in this was something to undermined the president or sever as a slap in the face before he goes to meet putin. i don't bye that. i don't bye thaw that i are

unpatriotic. they are clumsy and allowed the notion about collusion. that i have no collusion. 421 days. the time has come for them to say there is no collusion. >> a lot of people believe hating trump is a pay another tick exercise. you have a meeting to be had. mainstream media is saying it will be a failure, call it off. >> how do you do that. >> he never should have taken the meeting to begin with. >> will he call putin to make him answer his crimes? >> he has no idea what he's going into. this tells me he shouldn't be meting with putin. >> it's stunning there isn't a largelarge chorus to postpone i. >> this is not how that i would

have framed it if it's obama. >> that i loved president obama. they detest president trump. everyone of the sound bites came from a highly placed democratic optative. the guy will sit-down. he's auto tough negotiator. his bright arrival. when push comes to shove guess what, everybody is agreeing to get the 2% and it was prime minister may he insulted her then he said that was fake news. she let that slide and so did the british establishment. you have russians occupying

eastern ukraine. you have the syria situation. you have the under minding and meddling in the u.s. election. you have the russianpipeline pie going to germny. that i have a lot to deal with. i'm sure president trump won't surrender himself. >> monday will be a big one. thank you for weighting in. we'll await it with faded breathe. democrademonstrators gathert the golf course. >> you can hear them in the background. this was earlier this morning were protestors are filling into streets and parks. one state trooper was shot
