bill bennett joins us from north carolina. nator mccain as you look at some of his senate and house colleagues there getting ready for this ceremony. your thoughts. >> he was a friend. we spent a lot of time together. we went to sporting events together. i remember going to boxing matches in las vegas, god forbid, with john mccain and harry reid. i didn't sit for those pictures but part of what john mccain did. agree with chris about him being at the center of things. the great sense of humor. only john mccain could tell a joke that talked about his vietnam years with that memory and that humor. when he was asked about woodstock, remember, what is your opinion of woodstock? he said i don't recall much about it. i was tied up at the time. indeed he was literally. but i will tell you a little bit. i love john mccain, a wonderful guy. bipartisanship in itself for which he is being exalted this week seems to me is not a good in itself. bipartisanship is good if it's a good bill. some of the things chris cited were bad ideas. the ga

joining me now is bill bennett and fox news contributor who knew senator mccain.or being here tonight. an interesting group, some of them are as we would expect. there are couple of surprises in there. i didn't know that he was close as he was to actor warren beatty. i want to ask you first about the selection of this russian dissident. your thoughts on him. >> i don't know who he is. sounds like john mccain, michael bloomberg, sound like john mccain he was a guy of eclectic taste politically as well as personally. i spent time with him talking politics. we went to boxing matches together in las vegas. i had my picture taken with harry reid in a fight. that was john. he was man of the world. >> martha: it is interesting just to talk about this choice little bit because the selection of this russian dissident some are saying it's little bit thumb in the eye to president trump. it shows how much senator mccain was concerned about the activities of vladimir putin and this individual, he twice suffered organ failure from poisoning. they only knew each other, john mcca

bret: hi -- listening to bill bennett you got a good sense of the man. he was restless.e had 7 things going on at one time that he wanted to do. but he was impish with reporters. he would joke with you or needle you. i was on capitol hill and some reporter was doing a live shot in the hallway. he went out of his way to go over and put devil horns over the guy doing the live shot. he will have made a mark more than many people in the united states senate. if you think about his long time friend and adversary, ted kennedy, died the same day 10 years ago of brain cancer. howie: he could blast people, he could get confrontational. the overused word, authenticity. i can particularly when politicians are carefully calibrated, it doesn't apply to president trump, john mccain was very real and some people liked him and some people didn't like it. some people got mad at him and the next day they would be allies. bret: that's right. and column in "the washington post" said he has a capacity to be a cynic and in love with the world. he always said and i talked to him in the elevato

geoff bennett there for us at the white house. >>> bill kristal, i don't know if you had a chance to listen in, what do you make of that? >> i was struck by him saying that paul manafort is a very good person. i'm not in a position to know which counts they will find him guilty or not. pardoning somebody by trump's account that he was ensnared unjustly and is a good person. >> he always has two things to say for somebody who is in legal trouble. whatever he says, and that he didn't work for me for very long. with george papadopoulos, his was a coffee boy, there's always some mitigating relationship with that person. but it's generally speaking been a rough week for the president. omarosa continues to get headlines, and he continues to talk about the mueller investigation. do you have a sense that the president is feeling unusually under pressure this week? >> you would think so, but he seemed relaxed there. i've given up trying to understand his psychology, but giving the insanity, he's steady on a lot of things. he's intense on discrediting the mueller report, defending people who a

down with chuck schumer and bob menendez and michael bennett, the eight of us, four democrats, four republicans, spent a year working together on a billings happen. now he's gone. will someone step up? i think they will. someone will step up in his memory and try to bring leadership again to solve the problems that we face. >> you know, i hope you're right. i do, though, want to ask you more broadly, senator, there's been a lot of criticism in the past several days of the president, his slowness in issuing a statement honoring senator mccain, that he had to be pushed to again lower the flag over at the white house. even his staff told nbc we are doing what we can to be respectful this weekend, but we can't stop the president from tweeting off message if that's what he decides to do. lindsey graham and others have expressed this hope, that mccain's legacy will be a more bipartisan washington. i wonder, senator, realistically given the atmosphere these days, dow re do you have real hope of that happening? >> i have hope that it will happen in the senate in john's memory. i hope that it will happen in the house. i can't speak for this pr

did and i think president trump learned the lesson of the bad representation that bill clinton had and by robert bennetts bennett who walked him into the perjury trap and he will try to avoid it at all costs. he wants to say i have no fear, i want to testify, but it is mueller who won't let me testify under the conditions that my lawyer has properly set out. that way he has -- >> bill: let me clear up one thing. john roberts write giuliani is writing a response to the counteroffer. final question, that's right, correct? >> yes. >> bill: on the paul manafort trial your key witness is rick gates on the stand. a jury there. he admits he lies, cheated and stole and you have to believe him as a witness. is that what this case hinges on? >> if that case hinged on only the credible testimony of gates the prosecution will lose. the accountant was given immunity because she committed crimes by knowingly filing by her own testimony a false tax return. unless the prosecution has documents that corroborate the two live witnesses, i think there is a very weak case. juries don't convict on the basis of the uncorrobor

we have a lot of -- senator bennett has been a leader in many of these bills, a lot of bipartisan support for breakthrough initiatives, and we want to create an impairment where you can succeed. the hearing will remain open for 10 days, members may submit additional information for the record within that time, if they like. the health committee will meet again on wednesday, august 29 when we hear from dr. scott gottlieb, commissioner of the food and drug administration. thank you for being here. the committee will stand adjourned. [indiscernible] >> the interviewer is someone doesn't know a lot about medical research, burke is he a chance excitingss a lot of things that are happening at the nih. it is not the usual circumstance, but i decided, and he saw the results. actually, you suck three minutes of about one hour of conversation did you consider cutting that our short at any point? >> i certainly did, but maybe the public health message could get wrapped in here. and there was a little bit about needle sharing, and other things . reporter: i know there has been a controversy at duke,

bill gates making them a multibillionaire. he adopted informally a number of these americans such as lauren delano, such as robert bennett forms as his american sons and did business with them exclusively and he gave a present to the american sons not only banquet that his mansion, he also gave them portraits of himself that they would then bring back to america and they would hang in a parlor and accounting houses. to have a picture in your office or parlor was a sign of-- to your visitors that you were in the most exclusive and lucrative mercantile club in the world. he of course said when he was in the opium trade he said he was willing to shut the opium trade leads to the first grade complex and tragic complex between the middle kingdom and the western world with the first opium war that lasted between 1839 and 1842 in which china decides to enforce its anti- opium laws and basically the chinese government said to be american and british traders and over-- hand over 20000 chests of opium or else. well, after a siege of the factory district the americans and british hand over this opium worth of the hundreds of millions of
