one creating this moral bust. and we could all be poorer for it. good night. ♪ >> dana: i am dana perino with pam bondi, juan williams, jesse watters, and greg gutfeld. it's 5:00 in new york city, and this is "the five" ." major developments in the wake of president trump's former attorney michael: plea deal. federal prosecutors granting immunity to "national enquirer" publisher in exchange for information about cohen's hush money payment. the president blasting cohen for cutting a deal with prosecutors. >> this whole thing about flipping, i know all about flipping. the 30, 40 years, i've been watching flippers. everyone is wonderful and then they get ten years in jail and
2:01 pm
they flip on whoever the next highest one is or as high as you can go. it almost out to be outlawed. it's not fair. somebody defrauded a bank and is going to get ten years in jail or 20 years but if you can say something bad about donald trump, and you go down to two years or three years, which is the deal he made. >> dana: the president taking aim again at attorney general jeff sessions and recused himself from the mueller probe. >> the democrats are very strong on the justice department. i put an attorney general that never took control of the justice department, jeff sessions. never took control of the justice department. it's sort of an incredible thing. >> dana: sessions firing back, vowing that the justice department won't be improperly influenced by politics. senator lindsey graham causing a stir by predicting the end may be near for the embattled ag. >> i think there will come a time sooner rather than later where it will be time to have a
2:02 pm
new face and fresh force of the department of justice. after the election, i think there'll be some serious discussions about a new attorney general. replacing him before the election to me would be a nonstarter, but the idea of having a new attorney general in the first term of president trump's administration, i think it is very likely. >> dana: that is how you set the cat amongst the pigeons. jesse, what do you think? question >> jesse: a lot of people are unhappy with jeff ses performance. i think reality winner is the only person he prosecuted. there's been a lot of misconduct at the fbi, the department of justice. i don't believe he wants to get in the middle of it because he doesn't want to get caught in some sort of obstruction probe himself. he never should have recused. he bowed to the pressure of the swamp. he made a mistake by forgetting some random meeting for 30 seconds with a russian ambassador and then he caved. i understand trump's concern.
2:03 pm
the michael cohen one thing, i don't believe the president wants to criminalize flipping. it's his way of saying he doesn't like it. i understand what happened. cohen was looking at almost 20 years in prison and his wife was in the cross hairs too because the wife also signed off on their tax returns. he is a good father. he is a family man, so he doesn't want to spend 20 years in jail. if he can spend. by doing what the prosecutors want and saying yes, mr. trump did this because he wanted to help himself with the election. i will sign anything. that's how prosecutors advance in their careers. prosecutors don't sit around and not prosecute people. they prosecute famous people, and that's how they move up. they want a scalp here, and that's just one step on the way to potentially donald trump. now, there is nothing wrong with paying a woman do not say something which could be personally damaging to you. or to your family. if he pays this money out of his
2:04 pm
personal piggy bank so she keeps quiet, that's not a legitimate campaign expenditure. john edwards faced the exact same thing. prosecutors went after him because some rich folks gave him $700,000 to cover up his affair and protect his wife. it went to the jury, and the jury said you know what, this had nothing to do with the political campaign. this has everything to do with trying to save his reputation and his marriage. the law is on donald trump's side on this. i don't see this going anywhere except politically damaging the president. he is wasting a ton of political capital dealing with these massive amounts of investigations and the criminalization of politics and it really is starting to take a toll on him. and it's disappointing and sad. >> dana: will go to a prosecutor for a response. >> pam: thank you. i've never prosecuted a famous person who i've had to flip. all of mine were murderers.
2:05 pm
prosecutors, it's a common tool. the most recent one was a getaway driver in a murder case. you take the least culpable person and you flip them because you want to know what's going on at the time of the crime. having said that, you've got have corroborating evidence, plenty of it. and securing -- the difference here is the jury gets to hear you gave this guy a deal. hey, this guy got this deal and he's not going to prison at all. they can hear everything about it. you flip him and he was part of the murder but he didn't actually commit the murder. the other case with the president, all is going to be is a potential memo for impeachmen impeachment. so where is the credibility of somebody getting to cross-examine him? it's not. they are taking what michael cohen says as fact. if they do an impeachment memo, they are putting in there, he said this. therefore it must be true. once it's out in the media, it's out there. sure, down the road, congress will get a chance to jump in on
2:06 pm
it. but by then, it's already taken us back. that's what troubles me with how they're doing this. >> dana: juan, do you want to weigh in? >> juan: i would love to. first and foremost, there is no deal. cohen spoke in open court and said what he said. he has no deal with mueller. he has no deal with the southern district of new york's federal prosecutors. he made a plea deal because he understood and said he was guilty of having committed these crimes. and then named the president as someone who had directed him to make these payments. what we have learned today in terms of what american media, the national inquirer has done, that he was involved in an effort to cover up these things, jesse, in advance of the campaign, that these payments were made in cooperation with the media company to protect the president. interesting language in there. they said this was basically a tripwire so that they would learn of anybody who was coming to potentially embarrass the
2:07 pm
president and they would stop it by, what do they call it, catch and kill? catch and kill these stories. to hear the president talking about cohen in this manner and suggesting that manafort is okay. it sounds to me like we are talking about a mob boss in the godfather for something. >> dana: greg, would you like to talk about this or hear another piece of sound? >> greg: i would like to talk about anything you want me to talk about, including that tape. >> dana: let's listen and you can comment on any of it. >> i guess it is something like high crimes? i don't know how you can impeach somebody who's done a great job. i will tell you what. if i ever got impeached, i think the market would crash. i think everybody would be very poor. because without this thinking, you would see numbers that you
2:08 pm
wouldn't believe. in reverse. >> dana: numbers in reverse. ellis might not be wrong about the economy because impeachment is not going to be helpful. it also could get better because then you end up with pence. this is what the right is missing. they have to be drilling it into the left's head that okay, we will take to be 25. you get two presidents. you will have president pence and you will also have trump as a national folk hero. do you think trump is going to go away if he's impeached? hell no. he will be on tv every day. you are going to have him and he will be bigger than pence. this david pecker stuff. suppressing tales, romps with a "playboy" model. i haven't seen a trail of victims here. i see nothing but consensual adults who got paid. you can kill stories.
2:09 pm
i don't think that's against the law. i am like 323 million people out there. i am not a lawyer. a lot of the stuff goes right over my head, but i will tell you. i listened to alan dershowitz and he come if you watch him on bret baier on "special report" last night, the clearest analysis. if trump told cohen to make a contribution, that is legal. he is allowed. if cohen did it himself, that's a crime by cohen. therefore, trump is fine. he's not an undivided coconspirator because if you are lawful and the other person isn't, that's not a crime. the failure to report that contribution, it's a misdemeanor at most. i'm glad that dershowitz can explain what the media canonic slang for the media jumps and says there's a broken law. as for sessions, all of his palace intrigue is tedious and boring, it only serves to tell the american public that we are living in good times. if this is what we are talking
2:10 pm
about, we have a great economy. we have bigger paychecks. we have low unemployment. we have what seems to be like temporary peace. so we are talking about this palace intrigue. the media is so frustrated. >> dana: the president tweets about jeff sessions, threatening to fire him. it's not leaks. the president actually said eight. >> greg: that is part of the trump package. he's not just your president. here is your uncle, cabdriver, bartender. ask him anything, he's got an opinion. he is like a six-hour drive to an hour of the beach. >> pam: that's why people love him. he has a target on his head from mueller and anybody who gets in the way as collateral damage. hence immunity in these plea deals. they are going to do anything they can to -- >> juan: wait a second. what about the truth? what about having the american people understand what took place? he goes after sessions today. what kind of man is this?
2:11 pm
jesse, his in intent is that the justice department -- >> jesse: mr. holder wasn't the most independent person at the justice department. because president obama attempted $2 million in illegal campaign contributions. had to pay a nearly four in the thousand dollar fine. not treated as a felony. not treated -- treated as a demonstrated violation. and the dossier that was paid for by hillary clinton and laundry through -- let me finish. laundered through a law firm. where was that? how is that not illegal campaign contribution? a big double standard and you don't want to admit it. >> juan: the quote of the day, i have lots of friends involved in this flipping thing. you know said that? donald trump, as if he was a mob boss. >> dana: i hate to leave it there but they are yelling and we've got to go. the cavanagh confirmation battle
2:12 pm

♪ >> juan: brett kavanaugh on capitol hill meeting with senate democrats. the supreme court nominee pressing the flesh while some members of the party are calling to delay or block's confirmation hearings in the wake of the cohen and manafort cases. >> the senate judiciary committee should immediately pause the consideration of the kavanaugh nomination. >> to me it seems at the very minimum we should be withholding this decision on the supreme court nominee until the air is cleared. >> i'm considering all the tools that are available to delay this nomination. i will not meet with judge kavanaugh. i did not plan to meet with him. i will not meet with him now. >> juan: we have a situation here where the democrats are making the case that a president who is obviously suspected of possibly being involved after the cohen pleading, with some
2:17 pm
kind of conspiracy, should not be allowed to put a man on on e court who would would then subsequently have the judge about whether a president could be subpoenaed, maybe even indicted. >> dana: they are trying to make the case but they are making it poorly. they have already tried this. initially when the president had the opportunity to name somebody, even before it was kavanaugh, they said well, no president under federal investigation should be allowed to do it. that didn't work. this is not going to work. only the people have already said they are going to vote against him have canceled meetings with him or who are saying this. you have manchin, donnelly, and heitkamp, three democrats up for reelection in their senate races. they've already publicly disagree with schumer and said we are going to go forward. i also think that the democrats are going to show up because they are not going to miss an opportunity to be on television for four days. they are hypocrites. if they are saying they don't want to meet with him, if he's
2:18 pm
not legitimate enough to meet with, then how could you possibly go to a hearing and question him? are you going to skip those hearings? i doubt it. >> juan: we have a lawyer here. what do you think? >> pam: i know brett kavanaugh. i know that dana knows brett kavanaugh very well too. when i look at a judge and especially a justice. ethics, intelligence, humility. that man example buys all of them. >> juan: couldn't i say that about merrick garland? >> pam: except this is our nominee right now. that's what i'm talking about. for blumenthal to say let's wait until the air is cleared, give me a break. they are never going to clear the air with president trump. never, ever ever. this is something, like dana said, they want to hang their hats on and drag it out and it's not going to work. what do you say about justice breyer got confirmed during the time when president clinton's records were subpoenaed under a grand jury. what is the difference? >> juan: jesse, we have a situation where there are some papers and the democrats want
2:19 pm
access to all of brett kavanaugh's papers while he was at the white house. is that a legitimate request in your mind? >> jesse: they deserve access to things that are important for them to make a decision about whether or not to confirm him. if it is some sort of fishing expedition to drag this out and go where they are not really supposed to go, then they are just playing politics. they are going to use any tool in their toolbox to delay and make hay out of this nominee. they're not going to be able to obstruct because they don't have the majority. that's because the american people wanted a republican senate and that's the way the game is played. but it really is damaging. i have to reiterate the president's political capital, to have all of these investigations weighing on him and it gives the democrats excuse, a political excuse to obstruct more than they usually would. they were already obstructing a lot. if you look back, special prosecutors under clinton and bush and now trump have all been
2:20 pm
big mistakes in my opinion. and have not led to the type of results for they were intended to. they never got to the bottom of anything critical. i don't believe the american people have looked at the results of these year-long, two-year long investigations and said oh, that was worthwhile. that got to the bottom of what that was intended to. this is just another example of special prosecutors weighing in on political matters that could be handled by judges or other administrative agents. >> juan: so the president is above the law? >> jesse: not above the law. there is always impeachment. >> juan: wait a minute. are you a democrat now? >> jesse: no. but that's where these things should be handled. in a political arena, not a criminal and a court arena. >> juan: greg, what do you think? jesse is calling for impeachment. >> greg: the curtain is pulled back. it's not about closure meddling. it's about stopping an effective presidency. gets another sip from gore justice, that's affected. if the democrats weren't
2:21 pm
hypocrites, they wouldn't stop with kavanaugh. they would stop -- by their logic they would -- know trade talks, no foreign policy, go for the whole thing. to pam's point, if we decided to pause all politics until you cleared the air around all politics. we would never have politics. i am for that. let's just stop the politics until he finally clear the air. the people polluting the air the most, the democrats, they have political flatulence. >> juan: ic. we just normalized trump's behavior and the corruption. >> dana: you should tease. i want to get to the monologue. >> juan: greg has an outrageous story next.

♪ >> pam: elizabeth warren has taken another apparent step towards running against president trump in 2020. the liberal senator is released ten years of her tax returns, and it turns out the left-wing critic of the 1% is actually part of the group she consistently bashes. since 2008, warren and her husband have earned almost $10 million. dana, do you think she's running for president? >> dana: this is a good p.r. stunt for her. when she ran for senate, her opponent asked for six years of her tax returns. she refused. she gave four. now she has done ten, but that's most of the year she's been a senator. we still don't have anything before 2008.
2:48 pm
why? my guess is because back then she was a corporate attorney for really big corporate firms and she was making a lot of money and she would look like a hypocrite if she were to actually put them out there. my guess is there's more in these tax returns. the thing is, president trump can hit her on this because he's not going to release his tax returns either. but her democratic opponent in the primary canon they will. >> pam: they certainly will. juan, do you think this is capitalism? >> juan: yeah. she said she's a capitalist. she said outright. the other part of this is bernie sanders. i think bernie sanders -- >> pam: they both made a lot. >> juan: 70 makes money off books, i think greg would testify we are for that. >> pam: your books are great books. >> juan: i think people like bernie's book. to me, the big news here the right is saying imagine elizabeth warren complaining about the 1%. she's part of the 1%.

2:50 pm
i mean, that will dry up the entire swamp right there. i think it's illegal. you can't tell someone what to do once they leave office. they can do whatever they want. that's how the system works. but it's my separate and i commend her for it. did i just say that? >> greg: it is not about the tax returns and not about being rich. none of us have problems with people getting rich. the issue is that they have a problem with people getting ric rich. the true rich liberal is -- has -- they love the money. they got theirs but now they want to take yours. she's an example of economic inequality because there are people in her state that make less money than her and that's not fair. but i am smart. i know economic inequalities the consequence of capitalism. where there is an opportunity in which you have the freedom to do better than other people, you will do better than other people, and people will do not as well as you. but she gets it wrong because she is for equality of outcome,
