the president spending this vacation at his estate in bedminster, new jersey.king vacation, saying he's there because of long-scheduled renovations at the white house, in effect saying he had to be there. well, the fraud case against donald trump's former campaign manager paul manafort is expected to draw to a close on monday. this after an unexpected and unexplained recess on friday. court is expected to begin at 1:00 on monday afternoon, and according to sources the prosecution will rest its case after a dozen witnesses and nine days of testimony. all-told, paul manafort stands accused of hiding more than $16 million from the irs, allegedly spend it on luxury items. both sides asked the judge for two hours of closing arguments, and if convicted paul manafort could possibly spend the rest of his life in prison. joining me is carrie johnson, a justice correspondent with npr, and jamiel javer is the founder of national security institute at george mason law. carrie, let me start with you. you have been covering this case day in and day out. give us your take on

>> that often happens whether it's bedminster or whether it's mar-a-lago. when he is in his natural habitat at one of his properties where he feels comfortable, he often gets a little restless. it's also the case he is less likely to be surrounded by the formal cordon of white house aides. rather he tends to be surround by friends and family, a lot of his informal advisers and they tend to egg him on. i think that's why we get a lot of his most memorable twitter rants on the weekends when there isn't a john kelly at his elbow, not that his formal aides do such an incredible job of restraining him. but if anything, he tends to be less restrained and more relaxed, and that is when he tends to cast off some of the shackles and tell us what he really thinks. >> part of it, pick up on what molly said, he gets bored. okay, he plays golf. but you can't play golf 12 hours a day. so he is basically knocking around on these giant resorts, and he gets bored. and he basically wants to fire off some of this zing they're will make all of us talk about him, because i thin

the decision to fire james comey was made at bedminster. it was there the president fail to call out white supremacist. now trump says rudy giuliani will decide if the president is likely to sit with robert mueller for an interview while at bedminster. but it might not be donald trump's decision to make, admitting that trump might be, quote, forced to testify on matters that occurred before he took office and that might mean real legal jeopardy for the president. that admission comes as we are learning new details about the trump mayor relationship. bloomberg reports that the day after he interviewed robert mueller to be the deputy director of the fbi trump was in an office meeting when it was announced that mueller was announced to be the lead investigator of the campaign. trump and attorney general jeff session were blind sided according to a person familiar with both meetings. trump blasted session for not knowing the announcement was coming and how he didn't know the person he just interviewed and who the president said he had a past di

it lasted somewhere between under an hour, maybe just a har half-hour before he went off to bedminster for his golf club for last weekend. so this week because the administration feels so on the defensive they're not doing enough. we're just three months away from a mid-term election where the intelligence community is saying that russia is continuing to try to subvert our elections, they bring five top national security officials before the press corp in the briefing room to say something the president himself has never said publicly. that was a tablo that should have been played out in the east room perhaps as the president himself at the mic. and as your guests have said as you said the president was there in pennsylvania at a crowd of his supporters calling it a hoax. it's a wonder to me some of these people haven't resigned. but i think it comes back to the original sentiment a lot of people had joining this administration, they're doing this for their country. they're doing it in effect, i mean it's not going too far to say to protect this country from the president. >> jill, jac

you're there at bedminster covering the president's vacation. there is a lot of unoccupied time on his schedule going forward that could potentially lead to more of these -- i mean, has his staff tried to manage that? is that a good plan generally speaking for him? how much more trouble could he cause? >> well, these periods of unstructured time as i believe jonathan wrote tonight, they used to be something that his staff would stress out about. they would try to fill his days with meetings and briefings just to keep him occupied to prevent exactly what we're seeing. the president watching cable news and tweeting about it, tweets that no one knows are coming. if you look at his public schedule for the week, he has a lot of unstructured down time. so i think we can expect to see more of this. the one wrinkle i will add is that this past week, for instance, he did three of these megarallies in five days. that is a calculation for the midterms. he's going out and campaigning for candidates. but one of the up sides is that these rallies where the pr

you are in bedminster today. you were in ohio when he went out to stump for a republican facing a democratic challenger on tuesday in a special election. walk us through what the president said last night. was there anything in his remarks that foreshadowed what we saw today? >> there was actually last night in ohio in what was a sweltering j gymnasium. those of us in the press pool almost melted. there was very little discussion of the russia probe other than his usual rejoinder that it was a hoax. a couple days aligo when the national security advisors said russia did this before, they are trying to do it again, and there is a disconnect. the president versus the presidency in terms of trump not towing the same line. last night he was more disciplined than we have seen earlier this week. certainly he attacked the media. not as much as in pennsylvania a few days prior. he did not go after lebron james, which he had done over twitter the night before, which stirred up a lot of talk about racial dog whistles and a

what does it tell you about i suppose of domestic life within the white house or bedminster where thefor this working vacation, but more broadly, disagreement and division within this administration? >> that statement from the first lady was striking. and in terms of her be best campaign, it seems like lebron james fits that profile better than her husband at this point. we have seen the first lady diverge from her husband and have somewhat of her own voice at times. i think what's really interesting here is the idea that going back to the racial implications of this, this is a president, remember, who questioned the very citizenship of the first african-american president, of course, barack obama. i can also tell you that i went to school in cleveland, ohio. i have a lot of friends and family in northeast ohio. lebron james is still a very, very popular and beloved figure there. even as he is moving on to los angeles. and we have seen the president pick these fights with athletes. and i've talked to republican strategists who say that this is also part of a larger strategy. i mean, t

i'll be traveling with the president to his bedminster property. have a great weekend. "deadline white house" with the john heilman. >> it's 4:00 and i am john heilman here for the irreplaceable nicolle wallace. going to talk about the cloud of robert mueller over president trump's first day of vacation in bedminster, new jersey. his attorney, tv attorney rudy giuliani acknowledging to nbc news he may not be able to prevent mueller from questioning trump on the question of russian collusion which might mean real legal jeopardy for the president especially as his former campaign chairman paul manafort sits squarely in mueller's crosshairs. on trial manafort is for a fourth day in alexandria, virginia. mueller's star witness, rick gates set to testify any time now. let's not forget, that's a man who has pleaded guilty and cooperating with mueller's investigation. we're getting more, new reports this afternoon that tell us mueller is circling roger stone who repeated he might be indicted by mueller very soon. that is a lot of cause for concern, especially if you're a presi

will that happen today, as he goes off to his bedminster golf property for the weekend? if it were to happen, there are not a lot of buffers around the president right now. this is one of those unique powers like the presidential pardon power that he can do unchecked. it's obviously become one he's looking to take advantage of, andrea. >> we want to bring in harry litman to talk about all this, but just a traffic alert to all of our friends and any others who might be watching or listening on their way to the hamptons, the president is going to be heading to the hamptons on the air, the air is going to be cleared, and on the ground, on a friday no less. it's going to be a mess. harry, you're safely not in the hamptons, so let's talk first of all about mccraven. admiral mccraven is widely known. it would be very difficult for anybody who studied the bin laden takedown, which by the way john brennan was overseeing from the situation room in that iconic photo, but very difficult, as we see that team, and you can see john brennan standing in the right hand corner overseeing

the event was held inside the clubhouse at the president's private golf club in bedminster. it looked a lot like a campaign stop, though, with mr. trump asking the audience if the press was fair. you can hear them right there. the crowd shouting no. the president also called former white house staffer omarosa newman a low life during his remarks. in her new book newman calls the president a racist and claims he tried to silence her with money andomarosa newman for an exclusive interview about her new book and the bombshell claims about president trump. she served as the president's assistant before being fired in december. "meet the press" airs tomorrow morning right after "today in the bay." >>> we at a music festival, that my friends is nothing new. >> outside lens is the first festival in the country to feature a pop-up pot theme park. >> had to do it. >> here to tell us about is jonathan bloom. >> now grasslands. >> a tribute to the cannabis world that's obviously blossoming in our community right now. >> the sign itself could be an instagram sensation. >> this is actual

so, again, this meeting will be happening at the bedminster trump national golf club moments from nowthe president meeting with attorney generals and governors from seven different states. along with advisors and members of his cabinet. and the topic, of course, is prison reform. something that the president has been talking about since january of this year, maria. >> maria: rick, what does the president want to do in terms of prison reform? i though that he has talked a lot about the prisons being too crowded and the conditions bad. but, what specifically does he want to change? >> well, he also says that he can save taxpayers money. part of that is in reducing some of these mandatory minimum sentences that some have argued are way out of line. in fact, you may recall back in may the reality star kim kardashian actually had a meeting at the white house with the president because she was appealing on behalf of a woman alice maria johnson who was serving a mandatory life sentence in prison. she was a first-time nonviolent offender. was a middle man, if you will, in a drug transaction.

we have not been given particularly timely updates about what he is doing at his private club at bedminstersuming that he is paying as close attention to this as he does to most things that relate to him in some way, i think what would stand out to him is the testimony about whether rick gates possibly was reimbursed for personal expenses from the inaugural committee where he was an assistant to tom barrack who ran that committee and who has been a long-time friend of the president that i think would bother the president quite a bit and he will not react el to it. >> i want to get your read on the ohio special election tonight, which we're watching closely. the president campaigned there recently. how do you see it playing out? >> i think that making a prediction right now, since we don't know exactly what the vote's going to look like could be a huge mistake. i think that, you know, if i'm not going to say anything revelatory here. if republicans win tonight, it will be close, but this will be the model for how they do it in the fall. and it is going to be just straight-out scorched earth.

hallie, i want to start with you from bedminster, where the president apparently pulled it in from a public appearance perspective early on today, but of course that hasn't kept this story from moving forward. what are the latest explanations from the white house? >> it's a lot of the falling on the sword that you heard from, for example, jay sekulow in that sound bite you just played saying my fault, my bad, my mistake, i take the blame, i was miss informed. the bottom line is there's not a lot of ways to correct something the president is definitively saying in black and white. this was a meeting about getting dirt on hillary clinton. the president saying totally legal, right, it happens all the time. well, we don't know if it is totally legal. it is illegal to get anything of value from a foreign entity so that's an open question. i've spoken with a lot of republican and democratic strategists who say, no, no, oppo happens all the time. when it comes to foreign entities pushing on pulling that, that's a very different story. as far as the president's public statements, listen, he'
