hong kong joins me now catherine officials from both countries are holding talks in washington what hopes are there to resolve the dispute. well it's likely that this round of discussions is going to be very similar to previous discussions so this back and forth in terms of negotiation style the market really has priced in pro risk when it comes to the trade issue between the chinese and the americans a bit of a different or a contrary view point is that we actually think that perhaps over the next quarter or two you might see a resolution to the chinese coming to the table with the americans perhaps in terms of an energy deal for example now the u.s. of course is still an important trade partner for china do you think that this trade dispute could change that it's unlikely given that we are still seeing these two very large economies so whilst we have this overhang of what's going to happen next the chinese still have a lot of capital which in fact they could deploy elsewhere around the world perhaps around asia or areas such as europe and i mean you talk obviously is your job you

stephen moore, catherine rampell, appreciate the enthusiasm. thank you both. >>> president trump starting his working vacation at his golf course in new jersey this morning while once again undermining his own government official officials. >> i had a great meeting with putin. now we're being hindered by the russian hoax. it's a hoax. >> the president saying that at a rally last night in pennsylvania. this came after his intel chiefs made a rare briefing together to argue that russia is still targeting the u.s. elections in november. kaitlan collins is in new jersey near the president's golf cou e course. >> reporter: it's a stark contrast. the president talking about russia but naming no mention in our election, only saying the investigation into russian interference in the election is a hoax. compare that with what the president's intelligence officials came out to that br f briefing offering a blunt candid assessment that russia is still a threat in very certain terms. listen to what the department of homeland security secretary, the preside

catherine herridge. joining us tonight, chris farrell, director of investigations and research for judicial watch. it's great to have you with us. how deeply do you believe ohr to be connected to christopher steele, the former mi-6 spy? and to the entire effort to discredit, first the president's campaign, and then his administration? >> well, first, that is a devastating piece of journalism by catherine herridge. probably the best single recap i've heard. and it points out that ohr is the linchpin in all of this. through his wife's connection or employment at fusion g.p.s. and then him taking information and funneling it back into the f.b.i. and d.o.j. operating way outside the scope of his authority. really abusing his position in office. this shows literally that the components of the conspiracy, the connection between the persons involved, their contact, the frequency of contact, the subject matter, all of it circles around ohr at this point. and the indictment that has been put forth and the report

he had lots of friends, his closest were robert and catherine johnson, robert was the editor of century magazine, catherine, his wife, ran an intellectual salon at their townhouse in the murray hill district of manhattan. they were not particularly rich but they acted that way and brought together artists, musicians, other luminaries. one who came all the time with mark twain. he would come to dinner and after dinner would go to tesla's laboratory. there he is in the background and these two buddies play like kids. they were shooting lightning beams across the lab, they were having a marvelous time. my point is this man, this superman, his super accomplishments, the intriguing parties he was human. robert and catherine, one example of their letter, tesla was sick with a cold for a couple days so robert wrote him a letter that exemplifies the daily notes they sent to each other about their health or their writing and said it has been a week since we saw you and you need cheering up. come as early as possible and get cheered. we are in a jolly mood and the fire is lighter than the hard an

we have text messages and catherine herridge has been reporting about that. he continued to have contact with steele, but this was -- a behind closed doors, he acknowledges that this was perhaps something that wasn't standard practice. >> bruce ohr admitted to us that it never happened in his nearly 30-year career, he'd never been involved in something just like this. it's also very clear that as you say, he became and they wanted to talk to him directly. even though they backfire to him they produce credibility and they then reengaged him in some direct fashion. again, this goes back to this problem that, before the election, our government was involved in operation research against candidate trump. after the election, after he was the president-elect, the famous insurance policy went into effect that clearly led to the special prosecutor and of the investigation that we are now seeing and this was what we were uncovering, is the premueller activity that created an environment which many people, myself included, were willing to deal with the special prosecut

some have wondered if this would happen, catherine and now it has. tell us what the implications are. >> in the last couple minutes the defense has rested in the manner for case and they have made the decision not to call their own witnesses and also not to reveal their own evidence. this is typically done when the defense feels that the government, the prosecution, is not met the standard for a conviction in this particular case. a couple of key moments from the courtroom, the lead attorney kevin downing told the judge, ts ellis the third, that his client, paul manafort, has chosen not to testify as part of his defense. then there was a series of exchanges between the judge in mr. manna for it. it was really the first time that we have seen him stand in court and to go to the podium and interact with the judge. the judge asked him a series of questions, whether he had been counseled by his attorneys and whether he really understood what it meant not to testify as part of his defense. metaphor it said he had been counseled and he had chosen not to an
