>> hi, brooke. first first of all, it is a beautiful sunny day here in san francisco and that means that you will have a lot of people flooding downtown san francisco, and we are here in city, and things are underway about 30 minutes ago, and this is being san francisco, one of the most liberal towns in ameri america, you do of course have a strong anti-donald trump undercurrent here and i would say a majority of the signs have donald trump messages, but i do have to say that the organizers here are trying to keep the focus off trump and trying to get more women elected. i wanted to introduce you to organizers here, sophia who helped to lead the march here in san francisco and what is the main message that you want to convey to people out here. >> thank you so much for having me. and last year was more about mobilizing and we talked about hearing our voice, and getting out on the streets and doing that, and this year we want more action, so we are doing it based around here our vote. talking about r

>> that's right, brooke. there's been some conspicuous silence from some of the people involved in this, including don mcgahn. he said absolutely nothing in response to the "times" story confirmed by numerous other news outlets and also the white house is not saying much at all. what we did hear is from the white house attorney, who deals with russia-related issues, deals with the special counsel, ty cobb. he put out this really nonstatement. he says that we decline to comment out of respect for the office of the special counsel. this is a story that the white house has been dealing with for quite some time. and, remember, around this time, the president himself was engaged in sort of an assault on robert mueller, criticizing the special counsel as a witch hunt and also chris ruddy, as you just played, came out publicly, publicly and on the record saying repeatedly that he believed his friend, president trump, who he talks to regularly, wanted to do this and he thought it was a bad enough idea that he needed

i'm brooke baldwin. you're watching cnn. the finger pointing is at a fever pitch as the government is set to shut down, can you see the clock right there, 34 hours and counting. we'll dive into what's being done to avoid that in a second. first here is what would happen if there is no deal and the current spending bill expires. hundreds of thousands of nonessential -- that's what they call them -- would be furlou furloughed. if it lasts long enough they would be without a paycheck but would be paid retroactively. the military could potentially not be paid during a shutdown also. guess who would still be collecting paychecks. yes, congress. it is written into law. the national parks, zoos, museums, they all shut down. mail still gets delivered. essential services like social security still get funded. and that includes the tsa and air traffic control. the nation's capital could be hit disproportionately. easy for me to say. hard because the city's budget comes from congress. services like garbage pickup may fall by the waysid

i'm brooke baldwin. couple of key pieces there with the president, speaking specifically about this story with regard to his ag, jeff sessions, and conversations had with regard to the fbi director and his deputy. and was anyone threatened to resign or threatened to resign or not? cnn correspondent brown is with us now. i heard the president say that christopher wray, the fbi director, did not threaten to resign, which is different from some other reporting we've had. because it was all about wray and having sessions, basically the president pressure ray to get rid of mccabe. what did you just hear? >> reporter: right. he also said that the attorney general, sessions, did not bring up his interview with robert mueller's team last week. the attorney general was here at the white house yesterday, meeting with the president. you just heard the president say there that he's not concerned with what his attorney general might have told the investigators. the white house today has come out and said it's being t

, brooke? >> that is irresponsible, impeachable offense. >> that's absurd to say it's impeachable. i'm glad the democrats always go the extreme on everything. >> that's not the conversation we're having. >> it doesn't mean that you can impeach him. let's be clear about why the president is irritated by this investigation. first off, let's look at the facts we do know. people were investigating donald trump that clearly had hated donald trump from their own text messages. we also know -- >> let's not even -- come on. the #conspiracy theory continues. >> brooke, the text messages clearly show from these two fbi people that were involved, in their own words, that they had malice and disdain for donald trump. >> and it was taken care of. move on. >> they still work at the fbi. my point is -- >> you what else have you got, ben? what else have you got? >> listen, the president clearly has the right to ask tough questions and to put pressure on people for answers when he feels like the scope of the in

brooke. >> welcome to 2018. thank you, sir. >> you bet. >>> and just a reminder, steve bannon he was someone who joined the trump campaign late in august of 2016 just a couple of months after that trump tower meeting but he was with him through the convention and through that win and into the white house. let's go to a steve bannon expert. cnn political analyst joshua green wrote the book, devil's bargain." so, josh, green, i have to get your response to this whole "lost his mind" referring to bannon from the president of the united states. have you heard anything from him about that? >> i don't have any idea. i imagine he weshs he could take some of those quotes back. >> do you? >> but this is something that's been building up for months. when my book came out, trump tweeted angry, didn't put out a statement, but clearly bothers him the idea that steve bannon is getting credit for his electoral victory or for being an influential strategist. and i think the other things in excerpts we see in wolf's book, it app
