let me just see that richard burr in a diplomatic way said they will be a little bit confused. the president said you heard that i said that you didn't have hard evidence, but we have a lot of investigation left. putting that aside, let's talk about the big picture here in our reporting about the fact that it has been a year that robert mueller has been trying to find a way to talk to the president about these issues. it has been baby steps. it has been hard, but the fact that the president's legal team has written questions and that robert mueller's team seems to be okay at least within the parameters of collusion of working through it this way. significant? >> i think it's really significant. it's another step in this unfolding drama here. once the questions get to mueller, there will be another round of talks after that. as far as whether or not or how close we are getting here, one potential tell to watch is in the office. they shepherded kavanaugh's nomination through the senate and widely expected to leave as trump informed him on twitter, after this nomination is through

now the good thing is, every single report, as you know, richard burr came out, senator richard burr, head of the senate intelligence, they said, you see the collusion? no collusion. i've seen no collusion whatsoever. very strong, couldn't be stronger but the good news is it never affected, whatever did take place never affected the vote and everybody agrees to that, never affected the vote. the candidate affected the vote, the bad candidate. she should have gone to wisconsin. she should have gone more to north carolina, pennsylvania, michigan, florida. she should have gone out a little bit more. she had to work a little bit harder. that affected the vote. how about one more? reporter: [inaudible] caravan headed toward the u.s., specific action? >> we have the worst laws in the history of the world because we don't have a big enough majority. we have great people standing behind me. we write laws, half an hour would have greater laws. we need help, in the senate we need nine votes. not going to get nine votes. they always vote in a block. they will do anything to hurt the republican p

torture program and its connection to their home state and now unlike their own senator republican richard burr the chairman of the senate intelligence committee who still to this day refuses to fully release his own committing committee's findings on torture the north carolina citizens commission have released their use in an eighty two page report titled torture flights north carolina's role in the cia rendition and torture program the report finds that local aeronautical company aero contractors transported at least forty nine individuals were forcibly seized without any due process in a matter that itself amounted to torture and cruel inhuman or degrading treatment preparation for rendition involved physical and sometimes even sexual assault drug and sensory deprivation rendition flights were experience of experiences of prolonged pain.

even richard burr, who is the highly respected senator in charge of the senate intelligence committee, he just came out, said, no, there has been no collusion. he sees, absolutely spending a year-and-a-half on this stuff, there is no collusion. devin nunez came out, there is no collusion from the committee in the house. devin said no -- they came out with a very strong report, no collusion. there is no collusion. there is no collusion. there is collusion with hillary clinton and russians but there is no collusion with the republicans and there is certainly no collusion with donald trump. everyone knows it. and they ought to get it oaf with. they ought to save a lot of money and a lot of time. brian: but mr. president, there is no collusion but there is no conclusion either. >> that i can't help. brian: is there anything, have you thought again about sitting down for an interview or written questions or any type of hybrid approach there? >> well, seems ridiculous that i would have to do it when everybody sighs there is no collusion but i'll do what is necessary to get it over with. the

the president said he heard from richard burr, the president of the senate intelligence committee that, there was no collusion. now senator burr says there's still a lot of investigation left. he didn't say what the president had flatly said. what do you think of that? >> what i think of it is the word "collusion" is misused. the question should be was there a conspiracy to join with the russians, to join with the saudis to influence the election on behalf of then candidate donald trump. and i've got to say that my review of the information suggests that there is a lot of reasons why donald trump was engaged with russia and why he's engaged with saudi arabia. i think it's all about following the money. >> let me get your thoughts on another very, very disturbing story that has developed over the past few days. some of your colleague, including republicans and democrats in the house and the senate, they're demanding not only a full-scale investigation into the disappearance of the saudi journalist jamal khashoggi, the president said no matter what the conclusion, is the u.s. must contin

in the meantime, as you know, senator richard burr came out recently and said there was no collusion. he saw no collusion, after a year and a half, and devin nunes, as you know, very smart people. he came out. there's no collusion, there is no collusion. that's all i care about. lou: joining me one of the reporters leading the coverage of this important story. investigative reporter, fox business contributor sarah carter joining us. sarah, good to have you with us. >> great to be with you, lou. thank you. lou: great to have you. it is an extraordinary development that the former fbi, general counsel relating the statements of these fbi officials who met with apparently rosenstein and have -- he has quite a different impression of what transpired. your thoughts? >> absolutely. it's highly significant, lou, that it's james baker. after "the new york times" story published and the accusations came out and the information about this meeting between deputy attorney general rod rosenstein and andy mccabe as well as lisa page, the d.o.j. tried to push it off saying, look, he was joking aroun

people like richard burr, ted cruz, rand paul. >> judge jeanine: keep the politics out of it, juan. do you know what a 302 is? have you ever looked at a 302? how did you get your hands on it? >> juan: from the fbi. >> judge jeanine: they are nothing more than investigative reports. they are not recorded. there's no audio. it's the fbi's approach or assessment of what the person said. it doesn't come -- >> jesse: if they wanted a fuller investigation, they could've started this in august. >> greg: we know politics is poison. i am an agnostic when it comes to religion, but i know one thing in my 12 years of catholic church. crucifixion was an important event because it was designed to establish a wall between justice and mob rule. christ died so that the mob wouldn't survive. he got there. he died for everybody's sins. with the democrats have tried to do is tear down the wall between justice and mob rule. they decided to crucify someone once again. that's what's wrong. >> jesse: democrats full-blown assault on brett kavanaugh backfiring on them just in terms for the midterms. we will

. >> the senate -- under richard burr and mark -- they have credibility and work in a bipartisan fashion and they should be demanding that the cia officers come down there and explain exactly everything that we know and what our assessment is. >> john brennan, thanks so much. >> thank you, chris. >>> ryan zinke is the new scott pruitt, except scott pruitt never managed to get the person investigating the scandals fired, straight head. >>> the president's got one of the world's foremost uncles. thing one, thing two is coming up next. >>> thing one, donald trump is a notoriously climate change denier, going so far as to call it a hoax, perpetrated by a chinese. he doesn't parrot his party's go-to line, you know the one. >> i'm not a scientist. >> i'm not a scientist. >> i'm not a scientist. >> i don't know the science behind climate change. >> i'm not a scientist. >> i'm not a scientist. >> i'm not a scientist, and i've got the grades to prove it. >> no, trump is a scientist, well, he's got an uncle who's a scientist. the president was asked about climate change yesterday by the associated

and then richard burr stands up a few days ago and says "we found absolutely no collusion."re is no collusion. but it should end, because it's bad for the country. when you talk about division of the country, it's bad for the country. how does this play out, do you think? >> alex: i think his lawyers are doing what they do, which is protect them from any kind of legal vulnerability. they don't want him to get sucked into a perjury trap of some sort. i'm a communicator. i was marco's medication structure. from a communications perspective, that's the wrong approach. you don't want to say nothing, you want to go out and answer the questions you can move move on. we are almost two years into his presidency and it's still hanging over us. i think if the president goes out and tells everybody everything there is to know, answers all the questions, we can move on. from a communications perspective, that's the right approach. i'm sure his lawyers would strongly disagree with that. >> dagen: but the goal is to keep the president -- to keep him out of harm's way. it is pretty -- it h

meantime, as you know senator richard burr came out recently said theres was no collusion. he saw no collusion after what, a year-and-a-half. and devin nunez as you know, very smart people, he came out, there is no collusion. there is no collusion. so that is all i care about. reporter: [inaudible]. >> we'll start getting together. reporter: [inaudible] [inaudible] >> come with me. david: we're just trying to get the last little squeeze out of this impromptu press conference. of course this is a president who unlike any other made these moments last. he has been criticized by the media for not giving enough press conferences, official press conferences. i'm joined here by susan li in studio. the fact he has done more press conferences on white house lawn, in this case he is on his way to iowa for a major speech on ethanol. he really covered the waterfront. give that man 15 minutes he will cover the entire world, every problem that the president is dealing with. susan: go over topics he covered. off the top he was asked who will replace nikki haley as u.n. ambassador. he wil

. >> it's clear the senate intelligence chairman, richard burr doesn't want to jump the gun but manyemanning answers. >> shepard: thanks, mike. fbi officials have pulled employees stationed in an around a half a dozen asian cities after claims that they partied with prostitutes. now the justice department's inspector general is investigating. that's according to a report by our corporate cousins at the "wall street journal." fox news has confirmed that the doj watch dog is investigating fbi employee misconduct. we don't know the specific accusations just yet. there's concern that foreign intelligence agencies could compromise u.s. agents through prostitution, which is legal in some parts of asia. the fbi gave a statement that reads in part, all fbi employees are held to the highest standards of conduct and allegations against any employee are taken seriously. upon learning of the allegations, action was taken to reassign certain personnel to nonoperational roles while the allegations are reviewed. let's turn to a "wall street journal" reporter that covered the justice department. nic

richard burr. >> well, we welcome the pastor back to north carolina. he's been missed but his work in turkey, like everywhere else in the world to spread the word of jesus christ is absolutely crucial and it's a foundational things about this country, the united states, and i think that's why we love it so much. >> tom? >> pastor brunson, you mentioned the state team. i just want to echo that the folks on the ground in turkey the two times that i was there were amazing to work with, and they deserve a lot of credit. you know how many times they met with you and the prison, how much time they've spent with noreen. we're very proud of them. they've done an extraordinary job. [ applause ] >> he doesn't speak good english anymore. he forgot english. you spent a lot of time over there. fantastic. great job. patrick? >> what a special guy. what a special man of christ. when he comes to the oval office and instead of saying thank you just for your prayers, he says let me pray for you, mr. president. what a special statement. and what a special statement about

. >> the senate -- under richard burr and mark -- they have credibility and work in a bipartisan fashion they should be demanding that the cia officers come down there and explain exactly everything that we know and what our assessment is. >> john brennan, thanks so much. >> thank you, chris. >>> ryan zinke is the new scott pruitt, except scott pruitt never managed to get the person investigating the scandals fired, straight head. >>> the president's got one of the world's foremost uncles. thing one, thing two is coming up next. my mom's pain from moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis was intense. i wondered if she could do the stuff she does for us, which is kind of, a lot. and if that pain could mean something worse? joint pain could mean joint damage. enbrel helps relieve joint pain, and helps stop irreversible joint damage. enbrel may lower your ability to fight infections. serious sometimes fatal events including infections, tuberculosis, lymphoma, other cancers, nervous system and blood disorders and allergic reactions have occurred. tell your doctor if you've been some place whe

. >> senate intelligence committee chairman richard burr says it's too early to talk about whether orhat action to take against saudi arabia. >> i think they have been able to reconstruct a lot. but we're not there where we know the full picture. until that hams it would be premature. >> in cincinnati, president trump said he has not spoken with sautdie king salman about this but he plans to soon. >> bret: john roberts, thank you. . trump says he will head to florida and georgia next week to view the devastation from hurricane michael. there are now at least 13 people known dead, that death toll will likely rise in coming days. most of those killed were in florida. but the storm also did damage and ended lives as far aways on virginia. for survivors in the sunshine state the struggle to get their lives back to normal could take quite a long time. rick leventhal is in panama city again this evening. >> the line for gas at sam's club in panama city was hundreds of cars long. hurricane-weary residents waiting more than two hours to fill their tanks. >> i ran out while i was in line. >> i

they have interviewed that you can imagine that you could interview, and then the richard burr standssays that we have found absolutely no collusion. and there is no different, because there is no collusion. >> and congresswoman, you think that the investigation is going to end without the president sitting down for an interview? >> well, certainly, the attorneys who are representing the presidents do not want him to be interviewed, because there is no saying what he would say. he should sit down for an interview, and we'll have to see whether or not he does so, but i do think that robert mueller has already proven that there has been conduct that has been wrong. i mean, he has one concan vick shun and 34 indictments, and he's got four or five guilty pleas, and i mean, this was a campaign working hand in hand with the russians. now sh now, the extent to which there was conspiracy, that is what mr. mueller is looking into, and we don't know the answers yet. so for the president to say what he says, he is doing it as a self-defense mechanism, we get that. but there is plenty of evidence

in the meantime, as you know, senator richard burr came out just recently and said there was no collusion. he saw no collusion after, what, a year-and-a-half. and devin nunes, as you know, very smart people, he came out, there's no collusion. there is no collusion. so that's all i care about. >> [ inaudible question ]. [ inaudible ] >>> all right. a very chatty president trump taking many questions, speaking for about 16 of or so minutes, 15 or so minutes. taking questions about brett kavanaugh, the newly seated supreme court justice, as well as the departure of u.n. ambassador, nikki haley and potential replacements, including his daughter, ivanka trump. let's talk about it with our team of experts. kaitlan collins, the president saying i think ivanka would be incredible. although noting that it would lead to accusations of nepotism, mainly because it would be nepotism. and then saying he's not sure there is anyone more competent in the world. he also did mention the former deputy national security adviser, dina powell, as somebody being considered. >> right. and with ivanka, he didn't s

in the meantime, as you know, senator richard burr came out just recently and said there was no collusion saw no collusion after, what, a year and a half, and devin nun necessary as you know very smart people, he came out, there is no collusion. there is no collusion. [inaudible] >> we will start getting [inaudible] >> neil: we strained to see what we could get from the end of this here. the president making a couple very interesting comments. one about the senate reserve chairman go slow on interest rate thing paraphrasing here and also nikki haley big news of the day our u.n. ambassador who is looking to step down by the end of the year. is he considering a number of replacements. he was asked about his daughter ivanka. he said people would accuse me of nepotism brought up a couple of times. sings that the conference with reporters, before heading to marine one and joint base andrews, he is already on air force one on his way to iowa for a big campaign event later on today. bill richardson is joining us right now our former ambassador to the united nations under bill clinton. ambassador

warner: i'm really proud of our committee and i got to give a lot of credit to richard burr chairman'm just the vice-chairman and i'm sure he's been under in numerous pressure to shut it down or as ridiculous as the house was but there were things i wish if i was running that we had a more but 80% we've got real agreement on and one of the things that maybe do not get as much attention as i would have liked because we don't scream and shout at each other is that our whole committee and this includes conservatives like tom cotton and liberals like kamala harris and ron wyden we all agreed in the beginning of this year that the intelligence quiddity assessment that the russians did these things and hacked into us and mess with our election system and miss you social media and they did it to help trump and her clinton we one 100% agreed on this. the notion of russian interference -- there is no one in the trump administration the negative trump credit on this who is in any position of responsibly that doesn't one 100% agree that the russians interfered with most part all agree the inter

. >> you mean senator richard burr. >> yes. >> in terms of the senate intelligence committee versus whatd to ascend into, it's a true tragedy and i think when the history of this era is written, that will be a pretty dark chapter. now, in terms of just a point that she was making in terms of not enough help from washington, i would agree with silicon valley when it comes to this. there is much more of those companies can and should be doing, i do think that this is a national problem. we need to coordinate a national response and in someways, the republican defensiveness over 2016 has totally prevented them from wanting to look ahead and say for 2018, for 2020, this is a major issue and not just russia by the way. now that it succeeded in 2016, there is china and other co-untris looking at thco-u countries looking at this as a real vulnerability. >> after the mexican elections occurred, that so many issues that come up in terms of trying to so discord or hacking or whatever is coming from within the country where the vote is happening. >> that's an entirely different problem. >> it's usi
