the last evening there saw katie archibald miss out on the title in the women's omnium.he briton did take silver in this event which features a series of races through the day. gold went to kirsten wild of the netherlands, but after that final points race, archibald said she felt dejected to miss out this time. she does have one more chance to seal an individual title at these games when she goes in the madison with team—mate laura kenny tomorrow. once i relaxed i didn't have it, it just switched off. —— once i realised. you think you have to go for lap gains and it is a bit of a non—res because gold was not achievable and the fight for silber was done so the last 30 laps was this horrible sort of... i can't go there, what am i doing? this horrible sort of... i can't go there, whatam i doing? a this horrible sort of... i can't go there, what am i doing? a bit dejected. so disappointment for archibald but there was a dramatic finish in the men's madison though earlier today. britain's ethan hayter and ollie wood sealing bronze by winning the final sprint of the 200—lap ra

— archibald is one half of the reigning world champion madison duo with emily nelson.ces. meanwhile, the athletics has been getting under way in berlin where the reigning champion martyn rooney onlyjust made it out of the a00m opening round. only the top two were guaranteed to qualify. rooney finished third but made it through as a fastest loser, joining team—mates lloyd cowan, rabah yousef and matthew hudson—smith in the semi—finals. i've been all over the place of my pacing this year and it is 50 metres of relaxing as well. there is a bit of relaxing as well. there is a bit of complacency and it was just a poor run of poor execution of the race. coming in to defend the title is that it can be losing the heat. it isa is that it can be losing the heat. it is a tough, tough semi. and great britain have made a strong start in the women's 800m event. lynsey sharp has qualified for the semi finals along with her gb teammates shelayna 0skan—clarke and adelle tracey. the overwhelming favourite in the men's decathlon, france's kevin mayer, is out of the competition after he r

great britain's katie archibald wasn't able to defend her european omnium title in glasgow.medal tally to three after claiming gold in the team pursuit and silver in the individual pursuit earlier in the championships. once i realised that i didn't have it, it switched off and then you think you are going to have to go forth lap gains and it was a bit of a non— race because gold was unachievable and silver was already done so it was kind of this horrible, i can't go there, there is nothing to defend here, what am i doing? so, yeah, a bit dejected. britain's ethan hayter won a dramatic bronze alongside ollie wood in the madison, to claim his third medal of the championships. the pair took the final sprint of the 200 lap race, worth double points, to move themselves onto the podium. hayter also got bronze in the pursuit as well a gold in the omnium. quite a few days for him! there was disappointment for great britain's jack carlin as he missed out on bronze in the men's sprint. he was beaten by dutch rider harrie lavreysen in their deciding sprint. the athletics gets underway

archibald and kenny could not maintain the momentum. the gold. i couldn't have done any more. it was my first at international level. we made quite a few mistakes. a lot of the changes were too far back. that adds up. you are wasting energy. you need all the energy. it isa energy. you need all the energy. it is a long race. hugely disappointing for them. jack carlin from great britain is hoping for a medal in the kiran. better news for a mathieu walls? absolutely. it was a really impressive performance. this was the main's elimination race. an eventful race as well. this is where you see the last rider across the line on every la p the last rider across the line on every lap getting eliminated. whittling down to the top three, which also included krawczyk of poland and oliveira. the 20—year—old mancunian crossed the line first. his first major championship medal and great britain's fourth cycling medal in gold. it was a great race. i've done a lot of eliminations throughout my writing career. it was a great race. a hard race. came off w

the british quartet of kenny, ellie dickinson, elinor barker and katie archibald set the fastest timefriday afternoon for a place in the final. you can watch coverage of the inaugral multi—sport european championships being co—hosted between glasgow and berlin across the bbc. that's all from sportsday. coming up in a moment, the papers. hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are lance price, the political commentator, and caroline wheeler, deputy political editor of the sunday times. welcome to you both. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. the increase in interest rates for only the second time in a decade leads the metro. it says the bank of england has warned there could be further "gradual" rate rises to come. the i also features the story, claiming the new rates signal the "end of the ultra—cheap credit age". the image on the front page of the financial times gives a good sense of apple's extraordinary surge in market value in recent years. today, it became the first trillion—dollar company. a times investigatio

along with elinor barker, katie archibald and neah evans, they brushed aside italy for the first britishport at these multi—event games. it's kenny's11th european title, so is she back to her best? for me, personally, not yet. what i compare for me, personally, not yet. what i co m pa re two for me, personally, not yet. what i compare two is a real, and it seems a long way from that. i was —— took me two years to get to that. for me, now, i feel like i me two years to get to that. for me, now, ifeel like i am not therejust yet but i certainly feel much better than i did at worlds and ifeel yet but i certainly feel much better than i did at worlds and i feel more like myself. so gold for kenny, but the first medal of the day came in the women's 10k scratch race, as emily kay had to settle for silver after being pipped on the line by the netherlands‘ kirsten vild. and to complete the full set, the men's team pursuit team earned a bronze after victory over germany. italy took the gold ahead of switzerland. swimming also got under way today in glasgow with heats and finals this afternoon and

i mean it is much like what happened with nixon when he wanted to fire the special prosecutor archibaldwatergate. and in the end had to fire both the attorney general and the deputy attorney general before third in line agreed to fire archibald cox. but that was the beginning of the end. so one has to be careful if you are donald trump. he has the right to have the attorney general that he likes, but at the moment, the current attorney general is not involved with the russian investigation, so he is not subject to trump's pushing around on this topic. and i think that drives trump rather crazy. >> steven erlanger live for us in brussels with perspective. we'll keep in touch with you as we follow the trail. >>> we've been following the story of pope francis, scheduled to land in ireland in the next hour. and at some point in his two day trip, he will meet with a number of victims, people sexually abused at the hands of priests. ireland is like too many countries with a horrid history of abuse. phil black spoke with some of those who were abused and we do warn you, some of the description

scotland's katie archibald has won medals everywhere. there's this kind of odd voodoo that surrounds competing on home soil, the step up that you get, i suppose with the pressure of your friends, your family and your nation watching you. so i'm nervous about it but it's going to be good. so a new multi—sport event, all staged within one great city. actually, it's not quite that simple. the athletics is being held just outside glasgow. specifically, in germany. berlin starts its bit next week, while other sports continue in glasgow. scotland's first minister insists she's happy to share. these are the first multi—sport european championships. it's also the first for two cities to co—host in this way. i was in berlin recently, and i know they're excited about the athletics. i got the sense they were a bit jealous of some of the sports that glasgow was hosting as well, but i think it's a great partnership. this city has invested heavily in sport. nicola sturgeon told me she wouldn't rule out a future glasgow olympic bid. as yet, there's no

the president of the united states demand that had the attorney general fire special prosecutor archibaldcould. the attorney general elliott richardson refused and resigned. the president then ordered the assistant attorney general to fire the special prosecutor. he refused. the president immediately fired him. so solicitor general robert bork was quickly named acting attorney general. he was ordered the fire special prosecutor cox. he did. >> we discussed your reporting then and your anchoring then before. you said it is surreal. but now we're living through this. it is an indication that yeah, things can always get worse. we're in a kind of political theater of the absurd now. we expect things on get worse before they get better. >> i'm sorry you played that clip. i had more hair. >> i was going to say, who was the guy all that hair? >> and a better color. [ laughter ] >> it's always pleasure. >> look at that hair. do you see that? you haven't changed a bit. the hair is a little grayer. you had bigger side burns. >> welcome back. belly fat: the chili pepper sweat-out. not cool. freezing

saw it during watergate, richard nixon wanted to get rid of the special proper investigating him, archibald cox, ended up firing the attorney general and pushing out the deputy attorney general. i would not put it past trump to try to do the same thing. it could hurt him politically. the amount of anger and frustration and fear that he is feeling could lead him to do it. >> the frustrations that nixon felt versus ones that trump is feeling now, the next on frustrations were shared in private. the president is broadcasting his on twitter and on television and in speeches. is there any real material value of the public airing of the frustrations to potentially robert mueller? >> you're exactly right, victor. nixon did most of his fuming in private, although there would be the occasional outburst, and trump is very public about his anger. it serves a purpose for him of continuing to fire up his most ardent supporters and keep the narrative going that this is just a partisan unfair witch hunt against him and that sessions and rosenstein have fallen into that as well. >> this week we heard from

about the meeting down the president did something that both ken starr, and the nixon prosecutors, archibald cox, as that was an impeachable offense and that is using the instruments of the government to lie to the american public. the instruments of the government would be air force one when he dictated the statement saying it was just about russian adoptions. so the president's knowledge is key here to drawing the president into this, but it is not key to drawing donald junior in and he's already in. >> sandra: judge andrew napolitano, thanks for being here tonight. here now are michael cavuto, former trump campaign senior advisor and jonah goldberg. i know a lot of people at home or having hard time keeping track of who said what, and when people said what and who was when, where. so what conclusion can you draw from all of this? >> it's a hot mess. i think the judge had it pretty well -- i think collusion cuts both ways in president trump's favor and against him because it's not a legal term. because it is not a crime, i think this meeting does qualify as collusion. but then what, you ha

to elliot richardson, who was the attorney general at that time, to fire the special prosecutor, archibald cox, richardson stood up to nixon and said, no, i'm not going to do it. so nxixon fired him. ru ruckleshouse was the next person in line and went 2to the third person in line, mr. bork, who issued the order. it's unusual to have this kind of fight between the attorney general and president of the united states. >> everyone, stay with me. there's much more to discuss. >>> more breaking news, the "the wall street journal" reporting a longtime crony of president trump has been granted immunity in the case. david pecker, head of the publishing company that owns the national enquirer the latest to make a deal with the feds. >>> also president trump making the case against his own impeachment. warn whing what would happen toe financial markets and personal finances if he were to be forced out. we'll discuss. now t-mobile has unlimited for the rest of us. unlimited ways to be you. unlimited ways share with others. unlimited ways to live for the moment. all for as low as 30 bucks a line. unli

the president has fired the man you just saw, special watergate prosecutor archibald cox, and he has sent fbi agents to the office of the special prosecution staff and the attorney general and the deputy attorney general and the president has ordered the fbi to seal off those offices. >> as tipping points go, the saturday night massacre was a biggie setting in motion a series of events that tald take down the nixon presidency. it occurred on october 20, 1973 but less than a month before that date something else happened that didn't get saturday night massacre level attention but it was arguably just as important. on september 24, 1973, the office of legal counsel, the olc, part of the department of justice issued a memo that concluded "criminal proceed against against a president in office should not go beyond a point where they could result in so serious a physical interference with the president's performance of his official duties that it would amount to incapacitation." in plain english, please do not indict a sitting president. that was the opinion of the department of justice i

katie archibald couldn't make it five wins in a row in the 3,000m individual pursuit — she lost to lisailling climax on the fourth morning, india needing 84 runs to win, england needing five wickets. when stokes removed the india captain virat kohli, the win looked possible — and he took four of those five wickets for a 31—run win. a match which really was a great advert for test cricket. well, what a grain of cricket, from start to finish. three and a bit days, it made the fabulous spectacle. it was great to be involved in, great to play some fabulous cricket along the way and i am so fabulous cricket along the way and i am so proud of the group. all i wa nted am so proud of the group. all i wanted to see was the desire in the belief that we showed in the previous days. leeds rhinos have won the women's challenge cup for the first time, coming from behind to beat castleford. they won by 20 points to 14, a late try from leeds skipper lois forsell settling the match. they're coached by adam cutherbertson, who's expected to line up for the men's side this afternoon in their challenge cup

the president has ordered the attorney general, richardson, to fire archibald cox, who was demanding that the president turn over the tapes. richardson has refused and he's been fired. next up? bill ruckelshaus. he was the deputy attorney general. he refused. he was fired. this went on through the night. and the bulletins were coming in. it was banana republic time or downtown santiago. it was very disturbing. we didn't know where we were. the f.b.i. surrounded the headquarters of the independent counsel's office. this kind of stuff. and so you just never knew what was coming next. i did a reflection on this later about, what kind of people were these? and how did this happen? and we didn't have time to even think about that then. i tried to. and i have various reflections through the book about, what are we to draw from this and what kind of country is this? how could this be? and i said there's too much going on, to think these things through. we're absorbing one after another, events that outrun our imaginations, and trying to prepare ourselves for months of bitter struggle to com

after watergate some of the people around dixon, people like archibald cox, h.r. haldeman, these are people who worked for nixon but once they knew that the nixon ship was going down, they realized that the future was with the left. so they fled to become media heroes and they became media heroes by slandering nixon. so you got to be a little careful look at the testimony of people who actually turned on nixon and became you miss a professional nixon haters. who had subsequent careers on the authorities testifying against nixon. these people are willing to say anything to promote their careers. the architect of the southern strategy was kevin phillips and his book, the emerging republican majority is widely credited with being the bible of nixon's southern strategy. lots of leftist scholars say phillips orchestrated the southern strategy. phillips wright awaited book goes that's dumb. i could network the southern strategy because my book was published after nixon was elected. so because my book was an attempt to interpret what nixon did. i wasn't actually driving

doing better than nixon, nixon really messed up with the saturday night massacre where he fired archibald cox. nixon was a republican president and fired a liberal democrat who he thought was out to get him in the saturday night massacre. that was disastrous for him. trump is doing a kind of slow-motion saturday night massacre and it's more effective because it isn't done all at once and the blowback in the whole country is not as severe as it would be if he did it in one fell swoop. >> but he also has not only fox news parroting all of his suspicions and his claims and his conspiracy theories, but he also has twitter to go and say directly to those people who are supporting him, this is all a witch hunt, this is all a bunch of lies, this is all john dean's a rat, this is all mccarthyism. he's going up into the cloud and taking anything he can, grasping for various scandals in our american history and claiming that he's the victim of them all over again. listen to this mccarthy tweet. study the late joseph mccarthy because we are now in a period with mueller and his gang that make joseph

to plead guilty when nixon was still in office, after i got word that they were about to remove archibaldox, the special prosecutor. they asked me if i would consider pleading. i said i will. and much to the chagrin of my lawyer, who thought i had oliver north's case, where they can't both immunize you and prosecute you, i told him i didn't want to beat the rap, and where was going to indeed do it. i thought that nixon could not get away with removing a special prosecutor. so i was ready to go and did. and david, of course, was in the white house at that time. >> john, how significant do you think it is, what michael cohen had to say today? >> i think it was interesting that he said it during his allocution, which was under oath, where he said to the judge that he was doing it at the direction of the head of the campaign, referring to trump. making that clear point in court. when you do plead, you have to explain to the court what you've done and why you have done it. and they want to make sure you're of sound mind and thinking clearly at the moment. and so i have been through that drill.

senate has endorsed the bay hard proposal that judge sirotka would be moved to appoint a successor to archibald coxe. the president seems to -- contented appointed prosecutor under the direct supervision of the attorney general, this portion is underlined by the , it would appear the president's hopeful is unsatisfactory to the majority of the people and the senate. at the time i believe that the bay hard approach would delicately alter the balance of authority in executive functions which are the great glory of the principal separation of powers. this is underlined by the senator and in his handwriting below it it's is correct on both accounts -- it says, correct on both accounts. to researcher interested in this topic, that is information that can only be found by this unique document. one of the other tips that he was known for was his work on nuclear nonproliferation. specifically the president saw a grave national threat to the united states in terms of national security. this was another effort which was especially bipartisan. the senator worked very closely with sam nunn and hall lugar o

they have one gold so far, thanks to laura kenny, katie archibald, elinor barker and neah evans in the's team pursuit quartet won bronze, and there was bronze for hannah miley in the swimming pool. so, where will the medal chances come today? at lunchtime the focus will fall on the rowers going for gold in the men's quadruple skulls. there are 18 rowing events in total, nine for women and nine for men. let's speak now to former 0lympic rowerjames cracknell who will be watching all the action from glasgow. and james, we mentioned the quadruple skulls who stand a good chance. how well are the rowing team expected to do? it isa it is a continental championships, not a world championships, but rowing is very strong, especially germany, france, italy and the former eastern bloc, so there is good competition here, and the perfect race before they go off on their training camps before the world championships. it is interesting watching nations here, the intensity that some nations are putting on the european championships as a whole compared to maybe when it was just the rowing championships,

because bob mueller may have to go to the supreme court to get evidence from the white house as archibaldder from the supreme court to order release of the white house tapes. president trump is trying to stack the deck and brett kavanaugh is the obvious pick given his position, the president should ever be investigated while in office. this is a no-go. not to mention the fact that there's been a conservative effort by the extreme right to overturn roe v. wade for 45 years. they're looking at people who are cookier, that they pass up on those people versus brett kavanaugh. bottom line, they ought to have this hearing in january. we've got an impeachment hearing right now. >> they held up, e.j., the nomination of president obama of kne neil gorsuch saying we have to wait until after the election, wait until the people of america decide. you have a third of the senate, all kinds of seats up. let the american people decide and then we'll see on their nomination. i mean, mcconnell said this. to karine's point, we're not hearing the democrats aggressively raise that. there needs to be an all-ou

while but the substitute name was leon jaworski who was just as serious about the investigation as archibaldp feels he can get away from firing sessions and having a toady named, if you will, or a loyalist, to replace mueller and maybe it goes away without real opposition from the republican party. >> jennifer rubin, it's striking because light, joe lieberman and john mccain were thought of as the three amigos. the perception is that lindsey graham, if not john mccain's best friend, one of them, and they used to be simpatico on issues, very hawkish, tough on things like russia and donald trump. but lindsey graham has been overtly a buddy of donald trump lately to the point where he's now saying hey there may be no jeff sessions after the election. and then there's this from politico. republicans saying sessions is gone after the midterms. if grassley chooses to go to the senate finance committee, lindsey graham would become judiciary committee chairman. graham is close to election for 2020 and being close to trump would help him stave off the primary challenge. are we seeing the triumph of c

he was ordered by the president to fire archibald cox. how will his essay play in washington? where there was a moment rick gates, they were essentially one and two. he testified yesterday at the trial and was asked if he committed a crime. he testified under of saying yes he did it. francine: what does that mean for the mueller investigation? probe might be able, you have rick gates cooperating fully. this dates back prior to the campaign. becomes if there was any money with the russians, with these pro-russians in the ukraine. i don't want to speculate. i want to stick to the facts. that trial is separate. you have seen a shift in the legal strategy from people like rudy giuliani. they have been echoing they don't think collusion is a crime. tom: thank you so much, our chief washington correspondent. we will have coverage of the trial throughout the day. we will continue with miss santos from jpmorgan. ceo will be on in the 9:00 hour. stay with us. worldwide, this is bloomberg. ♪ tom: bloomberg surveillance worldwide, francine is in lon
