he told aides and his white house lawyers he needs to fire a.g. sessions for, quote, saddling his presidency with controversy. so what's stopping him? those same lawyers, apparently. they reportedly advised him that robert mueller could interpret the move as an effort to obstruct justice and thwart the investigation. but there's also a widening breach within the republican party over this. the firewall provided by many senate republicans supportive of sessions seems to be crumbling. longtime richard shelby calls it toxic. and saying trump's animosity isn't just about russia. >> this relationship is beyond repair, i think. >> but senator graham, i mean, the only beef the president seems to have against him is that he's not going to get rid of the investigation into president trump. >> let me finish the second part. it's much deeper than that. >> what else are we missing? >> well, we won't say on this show, but it's a pretty deep breach. and here's what i'm suggesting. that he's not the only man in the country that can be attorney general. >> but se

what this provides to mueller is intention, intent to obstruct, why was it that he wanted the a.g. to recuse himself from the investigation? what was he thinking when he fired jim comey? is he dangling pardons before people and talking about it with mcgahn? this is the damage that he can do. >> is it better to have him in the white house still or to have him outside of the white house given all that? >> let's remember something. the white house counsel works for us. you and me. doesn't work for the president. he's not his attorney. so in my opinion it would have been better to have him remain in place and continue to consult or be interviewed by the special counsel as opposed to having him now outside. i don't see the difference there. >> couldn't he -- i mean, go to mcgahn and say, hey, let's talk more about what you said in front of the special counsel. isn't it easier for the white house lawyers, for donald trump's lawyers to get to mcgahn if he's in the west wing still? >> well, mcgahn may very well have sent signals that he's not someone who can be gotten to and i think by goi

a.g. pushing back after the president lashed out saying sessions failed to take control of the justice department. the president slammed the a.g. regularly for more than a year since sessions recused himself from the russia investigation. >> he took the job and then he said i'm going to recuse myself. i said what kind of a man is this. the only reason i gave him the job is i felt loyalty. he was an original supporter. >> we have cnn's kaitlan collins at the white house with reaction from sessions and other top gop lawmakers. >> dave and christine, we are seeing the feud with president trump and attorney general jeff sessions intensify after president trump said he never thought sessions actually took control of the justice department despite being attorney general for a year and a half now. it is not unusual for the president to criticize sessions since he recused himself from the russia investigation. what is rare is that sessions fired back at his time saying the department of justice wo

is that criticism of his a.g. fair? >> that's a serious allegation that the justice department is out of control. jeff sessions has been mainly quiet until now in the face of criticism from the white house. i think it's important that he did respond. to say the department is out of control is a serious charge. from my vantage point there appear to be investigations going on and successful prosecutions. it's important for the attorney general to assure the american people that he is in control of the department of justice and it's operating as it should. the president has the right to be critical to say as he wants to say about his cabinet officials. but i think it's better to say it privately than publicly. i think it's preferable to speak his concerns to the attorney general privately. sandra: sessions hit back at the president. sort of rare for him. he doesn't normally publicly hit back at the president. he says the actions of the department of justice don't be improperly influenced by political considerations. he did

>>> former a.g. michael mukasey is here. what he sees as the reality of what trump has to worry about and when the probe should end and how. we're going to zero in on why trump is so panicked about ducking the mueller interview. this notion of a perjury trap, is it real? one of his close confidants will be here with some insight into why trump is so newly panicked. >>> and the president's lawyer, rudy giuliani, told me last week facts are in the eye of the beholder. i told him that's not true. he then went on another show and doubled down, saying the truth is not the truth. is that just misspeaking or part of a campaign of deception? it's time to go deep. let's get after it. >>> in an on the record interview with reuters, the president says that he could run the probe himself if he wanted. all this coming after his biggest tweet storm yet about mueller and word that his white house counsel cooperated with mueller's probe more than trump might have known. here to discuss that and much more, former attorney general michael muk

was the doszyer and the deputy attorney general and then attacked jeff sessions by saying this, our a.g. is scared stiff and missing in action. it is all starting to be revealed, not pretty. of course the attorney general has recused himself in the russia probe. but remember, aaron, it was the start of the month when the president called on jeff sessions to shut down the russia investigation entirely. he said stop this rigged witch hunt and that prompted white house aides to walk back the president's own comments suggesting he was just venting but again we're seeing how the president is taking steps to further discredit the russia probe and one other point, when the president and his allies and aides say the russia investigation started as a result of the steele dossier, that is not true. we know from doj documents that it started after a trump aide, george poppa lop lus was bragging to an australia diplomat about the offer of dirt on hillary clinton. >> geoff bennett in the white house. thank you. >>> and let's bring in our panel, kevin cirilli and franco ordonees and rachel gray from

high-ranking officials at the fbi, the director, the deputy director, a top agent, an associate deputy a.g. all demoted? >> so obviously there are problems at the fbi, but this cover story that the problem with the fbi is that it was too harsh on hillary clinton and reopened the investigation in this way that hurt her campaign -- >> it's the i.g. saying it. >> i understand. but the idea that that's the pretext, right, so already legitimate criticisms about comey's handling of the hillary clinton e-mail investigation and the idea that that is the pretext for his firing or for his attacks on the fbi is insane and utter bad faith. and similarly, you have, yes, of course -- i think that if you have an i.g. investigation into any big institution, you will probably come up with people who have made mistakes. in this case they find people that have made mistakes and then they go above and beyond the recommended punishment for those mistakes. >> this is the director, deputy director, top agent, associating a.g., it's not just people, they're pretty high up. >> well, they didn't recommend that he f

some of those republicans are not going to be comfortable supporting another a.g. unless they promise to protect the russia investigation and the mueller probe, which is precisely why it seems the president wants sessions gone, so it's hard to know what the end game is here. >> let me underscore this midterm issue here because i think the voters are going to have a say as to the future of jeff sessions, meaning this. my theory is if somehow democrats win the senate, that actually might change republicans' calculations in the senate if somehow they won the senate. brad, is that a fair -- all of a sudden you'd have a different set of -- right now you have a bunch of republican senators going, look, he's popular with the base. >> last fall when chuck grassley sent out a tweet that said i have no time to schedule any attorney general confirmation hearings last year. some people may have noted that last week he said now he does have some time. >> he has a separate beef with -- >> he does, but you can't have a new attorney general until you have hearings to have a new at

in the second tweet he says, our a.g., attorney general, is scared stiff and missing in action. it is all starting to be revealed. not pretty. so put this in the context of what just happened a couple of weeks ago, august 1st in fact, when the president on twitter unequivocally called on the attorney general to shut down the russia investigation. he said, stop this rigged witch-hunt. the president's aides and advisors had to walk that back and suggested it was just a case of presidential venting. here again you have the president saying, asking, where is attorney general jeff sessions in all of this. of course, the attorney general has recused himself from the ongoing russia probe. but, again, when you see the president and sarah sanders for that matter, who said the same thing from the briefing podium, make the point that the russia investigation started as the result of the christopher steele dossier, we know that not to be true. we know, in fact, that the federal counterintelligence investigation into russia's attack on the election and whether there were any ties to the trum

to a.g. slightly modified a bit and take it for long trips as long as trip i've ever been on so far today by today were about three thousand two hundred miles but the whole trip. everywhere we've gone we've encouraged people to sign the vehicle and we probably have fifty signatures in there the only problem. i have is a lost fan belt trying to catch up everybody else after paul off doing some photos and videos and we end up changing the fan belt fifty yards away from a bison that was on it was over the road so we didn't get any pictures but we have a fan belt changed in record time. bison. yes indeed dozens of the nearly extinct north american wild cattle graze along the highway. in one thousand nine hundred two forty nine byes and where we introduced into the valley of the lee ard where for now over six hundred of them live by the road they're very photogenic but it's best not to get too close. that also applies to the other shaggy fellows who often appear in the lush grass by the highway bl

don't have a lot of experience actually trying cases their elected their elected their politicos the a.g. means almost governor. who is guys headed with my cap and tonio america's lawyer thank you for stepping into the big picture thank you for inviting me. coming up man afford in court guns you can download online shadow banning attacking the news media and so much more to talk about this is the big picture on our t.v. america. disinflation very little inflation for decades interest rates have gone down for thirty years markets have rallied for thirty years now the whole thing is reversing interest rates are going up so is inflation so we'll see how that plays out if wages rise faster then inflation. as such then comes to wonder if wages don't rise as fast as this neo inflation then we have trouble. in the corporate mainstream media fuel america's cultural wars do they magnify political differences it would seem so how could it be if the only topic that is discussed and argued over this donald trump are journalists infected with trump to range mincing. as we evolve from downloading rap

personnel and are this is well because the president doesn't seem to be consulting the pardon attorney a.g.'s office and it is the policy of people with the thought of doing something would be more transparent perhaps not as certainly as the review of the security clearances but there is a working group that is looking at the overall security clearance process and who maintains those and whether or not those are needed across the board within the government in terms of the pardon process again the president has the authority to carry out those decisions he takes input looks at him on a case by case basis where it's not there anything that he considers some of the good that.

president trump calling on the a.g.stigation. former house speaker newt gingrich reacting to the tweet that came out today. last hour in "america's newsroom" the former speaker said this. >> i think president trump is far better off to endure this, publicly be angry and endure it. on the other hand if jeff sessions wanted to as attorney general he has absolute authority to fire the entire mueller team. >> bill: this hour live from the white house john roberts picks it up from there. there is more to comment on this. good morning. >> there certainly is. a lot of people saying a lot of different things. many people seeing this as an instruction on twitter from the president to jeff sessions. let's show you what the president tweeted a short time ago. attorney general jeff sessions should stop this rigged witch hunt now before it continues to stain our country any further. bob mueller is totally conflicted and the 17 angry democrats doing his dirty work are a disgrace to the usa. the important word in the tweet is should.

and as a candidate for a.g., i feel like it's really important to speak out to abolish ice.cturer at fordham university law school. i would be curious what she feels is -- she would prosecute ice over what criminal acts exactly. to my understanding, they are just following the law. if you don't like the law, change the law. that, once again, is where congress comes in and do something. brian: born out of screen phobia, it's called the next 13, 18, 19 hijackers from taking down more planes. ainsley: right. brian: did incredible job with terrorism. doing incredible job getting illegal criminals out of here. it's a tough job like law enforcement. do you love when law enforcement cracks down on somebody you don't know? they were breaking the law to begin with. ainsley: created after 9/11, because of 9/11. we're going to have ronald vitiello the acting ice director. he is going to be live on our show at 7:30 to respond to her. steve: plenty to talk about. 7:11 in new york city. jillian has headlines on the pope. jillian: starting with a fox news alert right now. get you caught up

will the a.g. be the next major figure to depart the administration. joining me, rachel campos-duffy, tim carney is here and richard fowler. rachel, let me start with you. jeff sessions has a lot of friends and allies in the u.s. senate. if the president is trying to whip them against their old pal, there is a political risk? >> he already managed to change their opinions in some way. in the beginning they were, you cannot touch jeff sessions. lately you heard lindsey graham and others say maybe after the mid terms you can deal with it. they don't want him to do it before the mid-term elections. the democrats' number one issue on their agenda is to impeach donald trump. the last thing you want to do is hand the congress over to the democrats. i think ther there is an impetuo not do anything. but they have changed their minds about never never. guy: tim, what one of the details we were looking at was sessions' accent and he's not an ivy league guy. does that ring true? >> at first it doesn't ring true. and i have got to admit when it moved to washington

in fact, pennsylvania's a.g. josh shapiro said the case not closed.oes the church support legal action against those who are accused? >> oh, absolutely. the church's firm follow, certainly in the united states, since 2002 when the sex abuse crisis first flblew up there an the bishops adopted their charter in a meeting in dallas. the position of the church in the united states has been full cooperation with civil authorities, including cooperating with filing criminal charges against abusers who have harmed children. so, honestly, christi, the problem with the catholic church, at least in the western world these days, isn't so much its commitment to weed out predators. i think the church has done a fairly credible job of that. the unfinished business is what about bishops and other superiors in the church who knew about these things a long time ago and didn't report them, didn't take action? what sort of punishment awaits them? that is the question the church still really has not answered. >> yeah, what is the consequence there. john allen, thank you s

>> just look at the schedule and the prospect of confirming another a.g. at this point in the game, very difficult. there would be concern about a domino effect. is this the way to go after the mueller investigation? it's a big concern. >> reporter: what he is getting at is something you hear from republicans across capitol hill is the political repercussions would shut down the united states senate, the possibility of resignations at the justice department. democrats would clearly seize on this a couple of months before an election. just concerns on the policy side of things. what this would mean, republicans support a lot of what jeff sessions has done at the justice department. republicans make it clear they don't think they can get another attorney general confirmed anytime soon. this would bubble up to the surface at a time where they would like the president to make less news particularly when it comes to the justice department and any connection to robert mueller's special counsel. >>> joining us now democratic congressman ted deutsche. thanks for j
