good morning, everyone. it's monday, november 16th. authorities temporarily closed the border crossing between san diego and tijuana. the port where more than 100,000 people cross every single day was reopened around 6:00 p.m. yesterday. the shutdown came amid a day of strife in which u.s. customs and border protection said in a statement that it used tear gas and pepper spray after several migrants threw rocks at border agents, striking them. this after a reporter reported witnessing border agents fire tear gas at hundreds of migrants after some of them attempted to get through the fencing. frustration is boiling over with the border agents, processing only about 100 asylum petitions a day. more than 5,000 migrants wait

around a cramped sports complex in tijuana after traveling through mexico in a caravan. there appears to be confusion. mexico's incoming interior minister told the "washington post," for now we have agreed to this policy, calling it a short-term solution. but when mexico's incoming president said no such deal was reached, his cabinet official backtracked from her original statement. still, president trump tweeted, migrants at the southern border will not be allowed into the united states until their claims are individually approved in court. we only allow those who come into our country legally. other than that, we catch and detain, no releasing into the u.s., all will stay in mexico. if it becomes necessary, we will close our southern border. there's no way that the united states will after decades of abuse put up with this costly and dangerous situation anymore. the incoming chairman of the

2:04 am
>> it was a fiery west wing meeting that led to the president granting troops the right to use lethal force. a meeting last monday deinvolved into melee pitting john kelly and kirstjen nielson against other attendees who have supported the president's more hawkish immigration agenda. they told the president the move was beyond his constitutional powers. they were vocally opposed by steven miller and chris crane, the president of the national immigration and customs enforcement council. according to politico, kelly and nielson eventually came around to the president's position and the bitter dispute ended tuesday evening when kelly on trump's orders signed the cabinet declaration granting the military the authority. hillary clinton is attempting to clarify comments she made concerning european

migration. clinton said european leaders should push for greater immigration control to deal with the rise of right wing politics. quote, i think europe needs to get a handle on migration, because that is what lit the flame. i admire the generous and compassionate approaches that were taken by leaders like angela merkel. but i think it is fair to say europe has done its part and must send a very clear message. we are not going to be able to continue to provide support. after facing criticism for those remarks, clinton sought to clarify, writing in part, on both sides of the atlantic we need reform, not open borders but immigration laws enforced with fairness and respect for human rights. we captan't let fare oear or bi us to give up the democracy. russia seized three

2:09 am
what do president trump's potential 2020 chances look like? >> i would say that the first thing to look at is going to be those states that he carried in 2016 that in 2018 i heelected o reelected democratic senators in the upper midwest in particular. and so that's really going to have to be the focus on that front. the other thing that president trump and his advisors will probably be looking at is how the public takes the increasing investigations into him, his conduct, his businesses' conduct that we're going to see from the house democrats taking the majority. how that plays in the public
2:10 am
could give us some early clues as to what president trump's chances are in 2020. >> i want to ask you what is going on at the u.s./mexico border. women and children are running from tear gas launched by u.s. soldiers there. how is this playing out with the president's base and republican politicians in general? >> for republican politicians, i think there's going to have to be some further discussion in the next week or two over whether or not president trump is going to get the funding for the border wall project. how much of that $5 billion that he wants is going to be something that they're going to really push for ahead of the december 7th government funding deadline for homeland security. that will really be sort of the next flash point, so to speak here, and how these images that we saw in this report with the tear gas, how that plays out

2:15 am
the washington state native was a team leader assigned to the second battalion of the 75th ranger regiment. he is the 10th u.s. service member killed this year and the second this month in afghanistan. now to a heartbreaking story in alabama. the family of a man shot and killed by a police officer at an alabama mall on thanksgiving wants the police department to release all video of the shooting. officers initially thought that 21-year-old ej bradford had fired the shots that injured an 18-year-old man and a 12-year-old girl. but after further investigation, the police department announced that he was not the shooter, saying that he may have been involved in some aspect. demonstrators marched to protest the killing by police. the shooter has not yet been caught. president trump and chief justice john roberts were locked in a war of word over the u.s. judicial system last week. the spat started after trump complained of bias by a, quote,

the president also set to meet with china's xi jinping. saudi arabia's king salman and crown prince salman will be attending. president trump insists he doesn't need to do any prep work. >> how prepared are you for this meeting with xi? >> i'm very prepared. i've been preparing for it all my life. it's not like i'm going to sit down and study. i know every ingredient. i know every stat. i know it better than anybody knows it. >> president trump is disputing the cia's high confidence assessment that saudi crown prince mohammed bin salman ordered the murder of
2:31 am
"washington post" columnist jamal kashoggi. >> they did not come to a conclusion. they have feelings certain ways. i have the report. they have not concluded. nobody's concluded. i don't know if anyone's going to be able to conclude that the crown prince did it. the cia doesn't say they did it. they do point out certain things. in pointing out those things, you can conclude that maybe he did and maybe he didn't. they said he might have done it. they're vehemently denying it. we have hundreds of thousands of jobs. do people really want me to give up hundreds of thousands of jobs? the fact is they've been a very strong ally. they create tremendous wealth. they create a tremendous number of jobs in their purchases. they keep the oil price down. the cia points it both ways.
2:32 am
maybe he did, maybe he didn't. but it's a very important ally. maybe the world should be held accountable because the world is a vicious place. >> president trump's remarks came after he issued a statement defending saudi arabia. also the u.s. actually had a trade deficit with saudi arabia, much like with china. and the president continues to thank the kingdom for oil prices, tweeting that it's like a big tax cut for america and the world. however, gas prices over the thanksgiving weekend were the highest they have been in four years. >> what do you think will be the main topic at the g 20 summit? >> it's hard to tell which topic is going to be the one that gets the most attention.
2:33 am
i would assume that the murder of jamal kashoggi is going to be the sort of thing that gets the most attention. but as you noticed in that setup clip here, the idea that the president of the united states does not need to do preparation for a meeting with the chinese leadership means it's entirely possible that something could come out of that meeting that would be unwanted or unexpected or unwise. but you just have to look all over the globe just in the last couple of days with what's going on between russia and ukraine to know we might not even know what we're facing by the time the meetings get underway in argentina. >> let's go back to how the killing of jamal kashoggi might impact the world stage, if you
2:34 am
will. how is the denial of the president of his own cia and their assessment and their findings, how is that likely to signal heading to the summit? >> it will be curious to see the extent to which other countries announce either ahead of the meetings or during the meetings that they're going to be curtailing relations or trade with the kingdom. and i think the question is going to be too back here in washington whether or not there's any new pressure to curtail the arms sales, which basically it sound like president trump has no intention of curtailing on his own. we're learning new details about the back and forth battle between president trump's legal team and special counsel in thi
2:35 am
bid to get the president to sit down for an interview. as the date neared and mueller provided the topics he wanted to discuss, trump's lawyers pulled the plug on that meeting. after private letters, tense meetings and consider public posturing, president trump still has not spoken directly to mueller's team and he may never. meanwhile, a federal junlt hdge denied efforts by george papadopoulos to delay his sentence. his attorneys asked the judge to delay the reporting due to the two active appeals in the case focused on robert mueller's authority and his appointment. but the judge wrote that
2:36 am
papadopoulos has failed to demonstrate that the appeals court the likely to conclude that mueller's appointment was unlawful and has been ordered to turn himself in today. >> joining us danny cevallos. >> just waking up. >> we'll try to jump start this conversation. let me ask you really quickly about your opinions, what you're watching out for today with all the moving pieces in the mueller investigation between george papadopoulos, the holidays and the midterm elections are over. >> today could be huge or it might not be. the reason for that could be the recent jerome corsi and roger stone potential talks with prosecutors, at least on corsi's side. if that's the case, even though mueller's team indicated they would be filing a report in the manafort case today, any time you have new developments and plea talks, a prosecutor might put off a sentencing or a court
2:37 am
date in order to continue to cooperate a witness. just to give you a frame of reference, membremember gates? he's still cooperating and he pleaded back months ago. manafort may be cooperating on an ongoing basis and that can take months, even years to complete. >> mark whittaker, the acting attorney general, we know that mueller's probably winding this whole thing down, right? how much can he be a thorn in mueller's side? what's the expectation? >> even in the limited time he would have as acting attorney general without confirmation. >> 200 days. >> but with some wiggle room on ten the end. in theory, whittaker can do a lot. in practice, probably not as much. in theory, he could reduce funding for the mueller team.
2:38 am
he could go to mueller and say i want a complete report on everything. then whittaker could turn around and go to trump and say, here's what i learned. of course, he couldn't reveal grand jury information that's been revealed to the grand jury, but everything short of that could give trump an idea of the direction of the probe. and then he could arguably limit it. but the political accountability for whittaker would be very severe. i don't think that's as likely h as others think it is. >> we're in this period where it's essentially a lame duck congress but there's a testimony expected to take place with james comey and loretta lynch. what's the objective here? what could possibly be achieved in this remaining few weeks of this congress other than just grandstanding and a little bit of posturing? >> this new mission to have comey and/or lynch appear to
2:39 am
testify before congress even in a closed deposition is of questionable value, because you'll recall that comey has said for many, many months i'm available, i'm willing to talk and i would like to speak publicly. comey's indicated he would resist efforts to subpoena him for a closed door private deposition. but historically speaking, those who oppose congressional subpoenas meet with very little success. congress has tremendous power to subpoena individuals to come before them. however, what is the goal at this halate stage? it's possible that comey and lynch could delay this testimony until -- they could run out the clock and the new congress comes in and they say, we don't find this to be a very interesting area of inquiry.

sued while he was in office. in the 27-page ruling friday, the state supreme court justice rejected that argument, noting that a judge in a different case had already ruled this year that trump is not immune to civil actions because he is president. the judge also found that the attorney general's lawsuit had made allegations of wrongdoing that were strong enough to let the case go forward. the trump foundation's lawyer said all the money raised by the charity went to charitable causes and the foundation remains confident in the outcome of those proceedings. let's get a check on your weather now. some rain headed our way. >> rain through the northeast, especially later this afternoon. philadelphia mid afternoon to early evening. new york city definitely around 4:00 p.m. to about 7:00 p.m. that's when the heavy stuff will come through. we have winter weather advisories and warnings and even blizzard conditions. we had almost a foot of snow in

welcome back. joining us now from washington, d.c. with a look at axios a.m. the co-founder of axios, mike allen. mike, good to have you with us on this monday morning. what is the one big thing? >> the leftover nation, the axios -- the axios one big thing, merging man and machine. jim vand a high and i sat down with elon musk who is the founder of spacex and tesla on his way to mars and talked to him about the future, the distant future. he is very concerned about artificial intelligence as an
2:56 am
existential threat to the united states and to humanity. he says that we are way behind in both regulating it, understanding it and adapting to it. now, merging man and machine. this is what musk says is coming in the not too distant future. he says we will have a little implant in our skull and you are going to be able to download someone and upload someone. so he sees the difference between our biological self and our digital self, and i asked him for axios on hbo, we were sitting next to jim vandehei and i said could you download jim? he said most of him. i said could you upload jim, then, as a fluid mandarin speaker and a tuba player and he said yes. >> what? that is extraordinary. i know that he -- >> it's just great fun. >> he expects to go to mars, right, in his lifetime. i know i talked about that. when it comes to ai, does he
2:57 am
think this is all going to be private industry? what does he say about washington being able to keep up with it? >> that's a great point. during the conversation with axios on hbo elon musk repeatedly say that washington needs to do more because what he said is happening is that the capabilities of artificial intelligence are increasing exponentially whereas washington works very linearly. he paused to say that if the capabilities are increasing exponentially and the government is going after it linearly we know who is going to win. so he is very worried about what is going to happen. he is almost worried that it's too late. he says the ultimate nightmare, the really dark scenario, is that ai becomes dominant, that it then pushes humanity essentially into zoos and cages.
2:58 am
we called him on this very dark view and he said, well, my faith in humanity has been shaken, but i'm still -- i'm still pro humanity and if you want your mind blown one last time, after elon musk outlined a number of these scenarios for us, he said, maybe we're just in a simulation and we said, wait, you're joking right? he said i'm not joking. >> elon musk. >> interesting guy. >> let me switch gears for a moment if i can, mike, and ask you about another key trump ally that is apparently ready to challenge the president on the khashoggi assassination. what are you hearing about that? >> so this is fascinating and the white house clearly was hoping that the saudi killing was going to go away, would fall out of the headlines. not going to happen. jonathan swan for sneak peek talked to senator lindsey graham
2:59 am
who as we've seen repeatedly on the show, one of the president's closest allies and lindsey graham said that he and other senators are going to push for a hearing this week to find out if it's really true that the cia says that they have high confidence that this was ordered by the crown prince and that the saudis were indeed -- did premed tate the death. he says if it turns out that as the media has reported the cia has high confidence in this, he will push for sanctions on the saudis. he said we can't be an ally, can't do business with someone if they are this crazy. so this is a notable shift from the president by one of his biggest backers, going to be a huge story this week. >> going to be interesting down in buenos aires that's for sure. thank you, mike. we will be reading axios a.m. in just a minute. >> in the simulation room. >> all of you can sign up at
