do you ever watch corey lewandowski on the shows? where is corey? and david bossie? he also had very little experience. he only ran one campaign and he won, so he's 1-1. corey, say a few word. >> this is trump country! we love you, michigan. thank you for supporting donald j. trump as your next president of the united states. thank you very much. president trump: thank you, corey. i saw them back there and they work hard. we appreciate it. we need more republicans. we have got to get more republicans. they say we have a majority. one in the senate, very few in the house. we need more to get it done. we are going to get it done one way or the other. but with your help we'll elect more republicans and deliver even more. other than healthcare which frankly we got rid of the individual mandate which is the worst part of obamacare. we are doing association healthcare very soon, it's coming out the next couple weeks which will be incredible where you will buy great healthcare, highly competitive. i used to talk on the debates about getting rid of the state lines. he'll be

sources saying that corey lewandowski said i'm not answering your f'ing questions. but facts is what americans deserve. the real question is will we get them? let's discuss now. i want to bring in our senior white house correspondent, jeff zeleny and molly ball. good to have both of you on. good evening. jeff, we could start with any number of breaking stories today. let's start with the president expressing confidence in his e.p.a. chief scott pruitt and despite the ever growing list of controversy surrounding his cabinet official, he even floated replacing sessions with pruitt this week. what do you know about that? >> don, certainly a number of developments here today. but as for scott pruitt, we do know the president has been thinking about this for several week we know that jeff sessions, attorney general, is the most, you know, the biggest member of the cabinet with a target on his back. he is furious for him for more than a year for recusing himself in the russia investigation. one way around confirming a new attorney general is to appoint an acting attorney

ryan takes the first shot and decides the first thing they should do is offer him as corey lewandowski tells us in the film. he thought his agenda would be easy pc, lemon squeezey. they walked out to the white house and ryan has a plan that says we will repeal and replace obamacare probably by easter. then we will get you a tax cut and then we will do the infrastructure bill by the end of the year. you will be the most productive president ever. trump, who goes along with that apparently, says that's fabulous. let's do it. he's believing appropriately that the republicans that had 7.5 years of anger to talk about obamacare and the ability to repeal it. he sits and waits. they essentially tell him we will need you maybe for some cheerleading, but if you just step back, we will get this done. people we talked to who are very close to ryan said what ryan really wanted and what mcconnell would ultimately want is a pen in the white house. they did not expect a president that would roll up his sleeves and get to policy or ideology for that matter. they were very surprised about what happened

corey lewandowski, the list is long often. thank you, corey, see you real soon.ht minutes past the hour. >> heather: and this fox news alert. isis claiming responsibility for a deadly attack on a christian family in pakistan. four people killed in the easter monday shooting as the family was traveling in the southeastern region of the country. is this more evidence that isis is expanding its reach? >> it's proof the isis brand remains strong despite significant battlefield losses in iraq and syria according to local reports the christian family was traveling in a rickshaw when gunmen on motorcycles stopped them killing three family members and the driver. a child survived. 2% of pakistan's 200 million people are christian. days before christmas isis claimed responsibility for a suicide attack on a christian church. the attack monday took place that borders iran and afghanistan home to three terrorist groups, the pakistan taliban, al qaeda and islamic state. earlier this year the pentagon withheld $900 million in counter terrorism funds to pakistan over the issue.

trump lavished approval on corey lewandowski in a way he never did for mr. cohen."aking it the first time anyone has ever said, "i wish i was more like corey lewandowski." ( laughter ) but despite, or maybe because of this, cohen desperately tried to help the campaign. before the election, he showed trump "photographs of bill clinton and a mixed-race man who alleged-- without any evidence-- to be the former president's illegitimate son. mr. trump knocked the papers away, angrily telling mr. cohen to, 'get that out of my face.'" wow. that means there's a conspiracy theory trump doesn't believe. "come back when you have something real like ted cruz's father killing j.f.k. the second gunman was rosie o'donnell." raff laugh okay. but -- cohen was so desperate to please trump that he "went so far as to approach melania to try to apologize for the pain he caused her with the payment to stormy daniels." "sorry i paid off a porn star for your husband, it's just that he told me to do it, and i wanted to." ( laughter ) that woman is a saint. the article seems to have gotten u

[laughs] terrific to see you. right now, it's all about "outnumbered: overtime." melissa, take it away. >> melissa: fox news alert for you, the senate voted to confirm mike pompeo as our next secretary of state. they now have the votes necessary. this after several red state democrats crossed over to support him. there had been concerns he would not make it through but now the current cia director is about to receive confirmation in the senate and he will be sworn in as our next secretary of state. mike emanuel is live on capitol hill. mike. >> it was not easy but mike pompeo is leading the cia to be the next secretary of state, thf state. let's look at the senate floor. the first procedural vote, we are waiting for the gavel to drop on final passage. ahead o

and other thing to watch is all these campaign originals like corey lewandowski and dave bossy who stayedn touch with the president. they had dinner with him monday in the white house residents. do they come into the white house at some point? i think that's another key thing to watch. >> jason, if you were reading through ax i don't see, which you probably were this morning, and you were looking at who this president reaches out to, there are various names not only fox hosts that have come to the white house to have meals with the president, don king also theoretically. one of the individuals that president trump reaches out to to get sort of a sense of what people in america are thinking. when we talk about the town, this town, that's washington, d.c., he certainly seems to have a lot of folks that aren't part of this. >> yes, because he doesn't know much about washington, d.c., and is avoiding to get to know anybody in washington, d.c., look, i go if your a supporter, that makes you happy. but if you care about the functioning of this government, it's not a good thing of the he's getti

the report notes that former trump campaign member corey lewandowski told the committee that mr. trump's primary residence has a blocked phone line. democrats suggest that then candidate trump may have been in touch with his son at the time they was planning the meetings with the russians. but the republicans say, quote, despite the minority's repeated efforts to obtain home or cell phone records for the then candidate trump to determine whether the blocked call was trump junior's father, the majority was unwilling to pursue the matter. joining us now is michael isikoff, natasha bertrapped and stephen harper. welcome to all of you. thank you for being with us. stephen, let me start with you, as it relates to the time line. this is something you're a bit of an expert at. the democrats on the house intelligence committee actually made some news. what we expected from the republicans is what we got. but the democrats said there were lines of inquiry they wanted to follow and they were just denied the opportunity to do so. so when donald trump tweets or talks about the conclusive out

>> i think we see none of these aids go away, corey lewandowski was fired from the campaign back in 2016. he's never really left trump's orbit. what's concerning is what do you experience, what do these people prove to him that is worthwhile and can help him. from what i can tell, not much. not much have a background in governing. >> i have to wonder, how does that work? i will speculate here. if you fire someone and say are you not good enough to be working with me, you pick up the phone and have dinner with them, because you want their advice. it defies reason, don't you, susan? >> again part of the reason he fires people he doesn't like the way they come across on television or they've had bad stories written about them. he thinks of everything as ratings and what makes him look good. he still likes having people that say, president trump, are you the best. you are always right. that's what he wants to hear. >> hurd source close to the president of axios that the misfits or deplorables as some people call them offer insight into the perspective, don king may seem like a choice, that i

former trump campaign manager, corey lewandowski, president and ceo and author corey lewandowski. we kick it off right here with breaking news. north and south korea have agree today take steps to completely denuclearize the korean peninsula. fox news senior affairs greg palcock from seoul, we have been saying, greg, this is history in the making. >> history in the making for sure, maria, remarkable statements at the end of it, could have wished for a few more details, hey that goes with the territory with these things. north korean leader kim jong un, south korean president moon jae-in making historic line into south korea, in concluding statement they say that there will be no more war in korean peninsula. this is what the white house is looking for, complete denuclearization, that means the north is a common goal, they did write a proviso, carried out in a fazed and gradual way, the white house would like that. a headline, they are calling for a peace treaty, formally end the korean war which started 68 years ago where there's only been armist and they have to bring in u.s., ch

we hear corey lewandowski was around him but absent john kelly, what does that tell you? >> certainly, every time the president surrounds himself with a lot of the loyalists who were supporters of his during the course of the campaign, he has a tendency to then revert back to a lot of the very hardline positions, particularly on immigration, that were a primary piece of his agenda that he campaigned on but it also goes back to stephen miller who was spending time with him this weekend who is the author of that framework that the white house put out who really pushed this president into maintaining a hardline on immigration so that in a way the president was able to publicly position himself as being supportive of dreamers by saying, i'm willing to grant a path to citizenship, i just want all of these antiimmigrant proposals in return and so that having it both ways, it also shows that he hasn't cut ties with a lot of the controversy figures like corey lewandowski, forced out on controversial circumstances. >> these are people who say, let trump be trump. lynn, this is the

the democratic report also notes that corey lewandowski -- it aappears donald trump senior may have been in touch with his son at the very time he was planning to meet with the russians. however house democrats note the majority was unwilling to pursue the matter. ken dilanian, let's talk about this. the lack of appetite for the republicans on the house intelligence committee for digging up the truth is amazing. this paul revere character, nunes, who runs down to the white house to get the talking points basically and then delivers the talking points back to the west wing, and now he has his whole troop of followers saying, case closed. and then this woman, veselnitskaya, comes out and says, well, wait a minute. yeah, i was an informant for moscow, and i was setting up that meeting. and, yes, it was about exchanging information like dirt on hillary for lessening the sanctions. it seems to me they're getting right near the target zone, proving collusion and maybe the president's personal involvement beforehand as well as afterwards. an accomplice before the fact, not just afterwards and t

corey lewandowski is a great example.lly wanted to keep out of the building but in recent weeks, corey lewandowski has been in here. he's met with the president. reasserted his political influence on donald trump, and it's another sign where john kelly, he is not in danger of being ousted in any day or minute, one says with as much confidence as one can have when it comes to personnel decisions but he is someone that a lot of people in the building feel he's working on borrowed time. kelly himself has told confidantes while he hoped to make the one-year mark in the job, which would mean july, he now doubts he can get that far. >> jonathan lemire and betsy woodruff, two of the best in the obvious the beat. thank you for sharing. a happy weekend to both of you. we'll be right back. company says they'll only pay three-quarters of what it takes to replace it. what are you supposed to do? drive three-quarters of a car? now if you had liberty mutual new car replacement™, you'd get your whole car back. i guess they don't want yo

trump: by the way, speaking of not being a patsy or a pushover, have you ever watch corey lewandowski? >> [cheering] [applause] pres. trump: he also had very little experience. he only ran one campaign and he won so he is one for one. say a few words. >> this is trump country. thank you for supporting donald j. trump for your next president. pres. trump: thank you. i saw them back there. they work hard. these are great people. ok, ready? we need more republicans. we have to get more republicans. they say we have a majority. we need more to get it done. we will get it done one way or another but we need more. with your help, we will elect more republicans and we will deliver even more. again, other than health care , which frankly we got rid of the individual mandate, the worst part of obamacare. [applause] we are doing association health care theory soon. -- we are doing association health care very soon. it is coming out over the next couple of weeks which will be incredible where you can buy great health care, highly competitive. i used to talk during the debates -- get rid of the s

he is going to be held accountable. >> harris: corey lewandowski, great to see you. thank you very much. i want to bring in fox news political editor chris stirewal chris stirewalt. what was james comey hoping to accomplish? this was not nonpartisanship, it seems to be multipartisanship. this is a mess for him for now. >> you mean with the book? >> harris: with the book, talking about the book. you have several conversations. it's every interview he does. potentially now is people who might want to investigate. and then you've got the written word as well. and every past thing he said in front of congress. >> i assume he's trying to restructure narrative in which he can defend himself and in a light that is most favorable. he knows that this is not done. he himself references the inspector general processes working through and he knows he's going to be held accountable on that stuff. i know not the heart of any man but i assume he's trying to do is to create a construct where he looks like eliot ness instead of somebody who played politics to the detriment of hillary

corey lewandowski is here. hi, corey, welcome back. let's talk about -- it's nighttime, it's the right time. let's talk about some of the issues that i'm raised, and whether any of this interview could be seen as problematic for the president. what do you think? >> i think what james i'm raids is a series of -- raised is a series of fiction. this is a man who spent very little time with the president. this is a man who has admitted under oath that he gave out information to an individual so it would make it into the media, specifically a form law professor of his. jim i'm and his best friend andrew mccabe hot inspector general -- who the inspector general said lied three times under oath. kennedy: comey positioned himself as the arbiter of justice. although when he had the opportunity, and he certainly did have the opportunity as the director of the fbi, he never really spoke truth to power. he never took these people on and what he lays out is these great northerly failings. >> he has the messiah complex the likes of which the world h

sources tell cnn that the donald trump's former campaign manager corey lewandowski at one point said i'm not going to answer your f-ing questions. except he used the real swear word. after cnn first reported the story, lewandowski reached out to say democrats were the first to use what he called appalling language. the harsh exchange is a measure of how far the committee descended into partisan back fighting before breaking up last month. that was on capitol hill. >> children, behave. this is where we are now? the perfect story for 2018. >>> ahead, the border or bust for hundreds of central american migrants headed right now for the u.s. cnn is on the ground with the caravan next. >>> and a narrow escape for some construction workers. the story behind this stunning video is straight ahead. "i have antivirus, but my computer's still slow..." "that's not right..." "maybe if i reboot..." "what's with all the popups?" "why does it keep on crashing?" "this is taking forever." "i think it's time for the fixmestick." fixmestick is a plug-in virus removal device. it's the smart, simple, safe

watching how comparatively well he treated corey lewandowski who was ultimately fired. was another instance where went to trump and saying he believed corey had planted a negative story. and trump sort of didn't listen to it saying you are acting out of jealousy. >> and it isn't just behind closed doors. it was in front of people. >> it was a continuous threat. cohen was not given the job on the campaign first because he clashed with lewandowski. and then later manafort. cohen did raise a fair amount of money for the president. he found ways. he formed this diversity coalition. it got ridicule at the time and in reality ended up putting a lot of people in television, who softened some of the edges when the president was under fire. >> the leverage michael cohen now has potentially over this president. the tables have turned. >> every person i spoke to, i mean, sam nunberg who was a former trump aide who also has been called by mueller said to me the irony now is the relationship is switch and it is michael who has the leverage in the relationship. whether he would use i

he's spending more time lately with people like corey lewandowski, dave bossy, people who coined of phrase "let trump be trump "and that's what you're seeing now, trump being his truest self. >> i always ask how did trump advance today and is there any strategy that you see employed in the situation in a jeremy talked about? >> it's really interesting as you talk about that feedback loop idea, the president went really hard over the last would you mean of days talking about the immigration issue, specifically referring to the caravans of illegal immigrants that he painted these pictures of the caravans coming across the united states trying to ominously cross the border. when did that start? when fox & friends did a report on it in the morning. after all the of president tweets, the white house and homeland security put together a conference call with reporters and revealed that they're trying to start this new legislative push for new immigration reform legislation and it very much seemed that that effort was following the president's tweets and meant to kind of put that policy muscle beh

corey lewandowski is with us as well. he has a reaction to this and other things that are cropping up and trump land. good evening. what went through your mind as you are watching all of that? >> maybe this was the make greatest messiah complex we've ever seen her this is a man who decides what's right and wrong,e decides what information should be given to the people and what shouldn't. he was trying to justify the leaking of information to his friends, attorneys, or whoever he decides is appropriate, it's okay as long as he's made the decision. it doesn't matter what the fbi's rules are, what the protocols are, jim comey was using government information, government computers to put this information on has decided it is in his best interest to make a personal diary regardless of what the rules say. jim comey is the one who decides what's right and wrong for this country now. spew it when you look back at the hillary clinton investigation and you think about the emails and the fact that they were done on a state server an

corey lewandowski is in the studio. and leo terrell in los angeles.emember being 16 just a few years ago. it was fun, playing high school sports and going to the go cart tracks. but, explain why that is the way to go when in most states you can't get a tattoo at age 16. >> well, this is a -- this is too easy. age is a number. 16 and 17-years-old can get married in many states and get a job and drive their car. i don't see where age is a number. what i have been impressed with, the nation has been mesmerized by the kids at the school in parkland. they were articulate and smart. and to make an assumption that age is a measurement of competency -- >> why 16? why not 14? >> argue against me on this -- you can drive at 16. >> prefrontal cortex. do you know what that is, leo? >> explain it to me because -- >> it's not me. i'm not a scientific but there are those who are. and the prefrontal cortex of the teenaged brain. it's science. it's not emotion. it's science. the pro frontal cortex of the teenaged brain is not in balance. it's an emotional brain. take

ainsley: corey lewandowski is going to join us live coming up. i asked a friend to -- i intentionally gave this information to a friend intending that it be out in the media. i'ed it to get out in the media. >> right. >> as a private citizen, i could do that. brian: that's daniel richman more than a friend. he had a security clearance working for free for the fbi. james comey denying he leaked anything when he gave those memos to his buddy, he also worked for the fbi unpaid basis. this as we learn more about those memos even shared with possibly more people? g.o.p. congressman jim jordan sits on the house judiciary committee and joins us now. what's significant about that exchange for you? >> first of all, james comey never told congress that he wasn't just leaking this information through a friend to the "new york times." this friend was a special government employee, sge, had access to the fbi we presume he had full clearance. so he didn't disclose that. frankly, there is no one on capitol hill who thinks this was the first and only time james

new information about how the investigation went off the rails including an incident curing corey lewandowski's. he was the final witness in the investigation. he didn't leave any doubt he was frustrated with the questions he was being asked. our senior correspondent joins me. what did lewandowski say to the committee? >> the first time he came, he wouldn't answer questions about topics that occurred after he left the trump campaign in june 2016. he said i'm not prepared to answer those questions. so the democrats insisted on him coming back. the second time he came back was in march. last month and he was asked a range of questions that he refused to answer. it got rather heated. we're told by four sources with direct knowledge of exactly what happened that lewandowski swore the democratic members of the committee repeatedly saying i'm not going to answer your f'ing question but he actually used the swear word, catching members by surprise. and there was sharp push back by democratic members on the committee. now republicans came out of that hearing defending lewandowski, not pushing back at h

the conservative media, the conservative base with corey lewandowski, and finally entertainment. i think he's hearing voices similar to his own. he saw that story on fox news and this is president trump at his essence. he loves to go after immigrant groups, to put this issue front and center. that all makes sense. >> david, it seems what he is tweeting may be red meat but the approval rating is on the rise. why go there today? >> i don't know if the president's approval ratings are on the rise but it's in the low to mid-40s where it's always been. >> it hasn't always been. it's been below 40. >> if you look at the averages it's been from 42% to 44%. i think this is where the president is most comfortable ultimately, railing against the system, saying that the problem is the system and it all needs to be torn down. it doesn't really matter what the subject matter is. the other part of the tweets this morning were about senate rules and how the senate should get rid of the filibuster that is still in place for legislation. the 60 vote filibuster. use the nuclear option, break the r

not nine or so that corey lewandowski and others have sat down with investigators about. wouldn't the president just do it and get it over with? it's politically expedient for him as well. >> in fact, the longer he doesn't, the more this becomes a focus and the longer he refuses to be interviewed, the guiltier it looks. that narrative, if you want to defeat that narrative, you've got to get out there and do the thing. take your medicine and move on. otherwise, we are going to be stuck in this. even if mueller wanted to bring it to a conclusion today, he can't really until he could tell the justice department "i finished, i talked to everybody, is what i found." >> harris: really? do think it's fair, if someone is guilty because they are hesitant to sit down and negotiate terms? >> very often, innocent people do things that look guilty. for example, when trump fired robert mueller the way he fired him -- >> harris: you been james comey. >> it wasn't that he made him guilty, it was like why did you do that and say it the way you did? it creates a narrative, it reinforces th

there were masked individuals in a similar vein a few days later preventing corey lewandowski from speaking. there was an incident at middlebury, charles murray. protesters surrounded his car, a protester was injured in that incident. harold mcdonald was prevented from speaking on the claremont mckenna campus, where students were disciplined for that, which is unusual. usually protesters get away with no criticism. a federal judge left white supremacist, richard spencer speak on campus after loss the aclu might have been involved in and violence erupted between protesters and attendees. mayday protests in santa cruz, people were assaulted. protests are getting violent and i don't think it is necessarily students. it has been a lot of left-wing agitators who come onto the campuses to use the conservative speaker is an excuse for violent agitation. protests prompted campus closure at another university as a result of violent protesters and a slice from this year, litigation occurred in the university of washington attempted to charge the university of washington $17,000 security fee for a cam

. >> martha: joining me now, corey lewandowski, former trump campaign manager and author of "let trump be trump." corey, good to see you. according to daniel's attorney, you spent a lot of time with michael cohen. he thinks you should be very, very concerned. your thoughts. >> i'm not very concerned. i've been very clear i have nothing to be concerned about. this is an issue that is one of did the fbi do something inappropriately, did they seize material which falls under attorney client privilege and if so, are they going to return that information before they look at it so that mr. cohen and his legal team have the opportunity to decipher what is privileged material and what isn't privileged material. we should be very concerned right now that we have an fbi which is raiding the personal attorney of the president without respect to what is or may be attorney client privilege material. >> james kallstrom, the former assistant director of the fbi that we just played a little bit of what he had to say, he was interviewed by neil cavuto. he made it very clear, he said, you know, when you

the -- the prosecutors saying they wanted more information about michael cohen's dealings with corey lewandowskiers in the trump campaign and obviously hope hicks a key players in the white house. that seems to be direct ties to trump. and something that you know, for trump, himself is not something he can stop by threatening to fire sessions or mueller or rosenstein at this stage. >> i thought it interesting, david, as i was watching the situation room with wolf blitzer and raj shaw was on the lawn of the white house and he wouldn't answer wolf's questions regarding miebl cohen. he wanted to talk to the issues important to the american people. he gladly answered the question about scooter libby but then wouldn't answer the question about michael cohen. and my response to him would have been so you don't think the president's personal attorney being under criminal investigation is a story that's important to the american people, especially when his only client is you know who, david? >> yeah, don, i think that's right. i haven't -- i didn't see that interview. but i think there is two sides to t

between cohen and hope hicks the president's long-time aid and communications between conand corey lewandowski been the campaign manager. >> that could explain why the president is as concerned as he is right now. >> oh, absolutely. you know in fairness to the president, i think people who are saying, well, if have you nothing to fear, why are you worried about the search like this? this is an incredibly intrusive search on someone who is very close to the president and deals with extremely sensitive subjects. i don't think you have to have a guilty conscience to be concerned about. that now, it seems to me that given the circumstances, this was a legitimate search, but the idea that the president is angry about it, i don't think that proves that there is anything incriminating in these documents. it's just very intrusive, very personal, and by his own account, michael cohen is the person that keeps all of donald trump's secrets, so, of course, he's be upset about it. >> understandable the lawyer for stormy daniels, he predicts this investigation will put so much pressure on michael cohen that

this is who the president met with this weekend, corey lewandowski, the former campaign chairman, and david bossi and had dinner with his long time friend don king. not necessarily moderating voices but people that usually push in to the president's kind of bully tactics. should he be receiving strategic policy advice from these people that aren't even a member of this administration? does that raise any security alarm bells to you? >> it raszs an alarm bell. the president should be allowed to have free time. they are not who i choose to have dinner myself. the president should have personal time. the real issue is when he's supposed to be working, he's not actually listening to anyone. i don't know how much time president trump has actually spent for example in the situation room having national security council meetings. those are long meetings and can drag on for hours. do we know if he's gone to the situation room and chaired national security council meetings. the issue here is there are senior directors at the national security council and president has a cabinet but they are no

in the past week, he dined with his former campaign aides corey lewandowski and david bossy.andowski was almost banned from the white house by the chief of staff john kelly. there are reports that john kelly is increasingly being sidelined by the president. the president retreating to the residence, meeting with his close confidants and talking to them on the phone and making decisions in that way. we have seen this in important decisions the last several weeks. on tariffs he announced the last week, he wanted to pull out of syria, catching his defense department off-guard. this is a president who is eager to move forward exactly the way he wants to. later this morning, we might see the president going to easter services here in mar-a-lago which he and the first lady have done in the past. >> abby phillips there near the president's resort, thank you so much. >>> this morning, the u.s. and south korea kicking off massive military drills off the korean peninsula. the so-called war games typically involves tens of thousands of troops and tanks and bombers and even submarines. i

. >> corey lewandowski criticized the fbi saying, when they hired paul manafort, somebody who the fbi we know interviewed in 2014, that he thinks the fbi should have been obligated to tell the trump campaign that he was -- >> i'm not going to comment on manafort. that's not the fbi's job. they do background work on government hires but not to private entities. >> i want to ask you about the clinton e-mail investigation. starting in october, you say in your book that deputy director andrew mccabe told you something about anthony wiener and his laptop and something involving -- in early october. there's a gap. you sort of -- you don't explain why nothing -- then you sort of fast forward to october 27th. what happened in the intervening time there? why didn't your antenna go off sooner going, anthony wiener? we better get on top of this. >> yeah. i remember somebody -- i think it was the deputy director saying something to me early in october, i think. i didn't index on it because how on earth could there be a connect between anthony wiener and hillary clinton's e-mails? i don't remember

that it is in the president's best interest not to do that and he's being advised that way by corey lewandowskis and i think he should take that fine advice and so far the mueller investigation continues and i am a supporter of the mueller investigation. >> okay. before we get to the bill, let me ask you this question, deputy attorney general rod rosenstein oversees the mueller investigation, oversees mueller, would firing him effectively accomplish the same goal? >> i don't think so because the mueller investigation would continue and if someone were to be nominated to be deputy attorney general, that position requires senate confirmation, don. >> yeah. okay. so let's talk about a bill. there are actually bipartisan bills in both the house and the senate that would protect mueller prohibiting the president from firing him without good cause and giving him a right to appeal. including one by republican charlie dent just this past friday. you endorsed that bill along with a handful of republican lawmakers. why now? >> because it's important that the mueller investigation continue and congressman

let's discuss as a former trump campaign manager corey lewandowski and civil rights attorney leo tirrells angeles. all right, leo, i remember being 16, just a few years ago, i remember being 16. it was fun. we were playing high school sports, and goofing around on the weekends, going to the go kart track, do they still do that anymore? explain why that is the way to go when in most states, you can't get a tattoo at age 16. >> this is too easy. age is a number. 16 and 17-year-olds can get married in many states, they get a job, they can drive their car, i don't see where age is a number. what i have been impressed with, i think this whole nation has been mesmerized by the kids in school in parkland. those kids were articulate, smart, and to make an assumption, laura, you are a lawyer, to make an assumption that age is somehow a measurement of competency and maturity, i would beg to differ. >> laura: by 16? why not 14? >> argue against me on this. >> laura: prefrontal cortex. do you know what that means? >> explain it to me. >> laura: it's not me. i'm not a scientist. there are those who a

there is no corey lewandowski either.y put the manager when it was manafort for that two month period. >> they specifically picked out people that we know have had contacts with the russians so they can depose them and get the discovery and have the documents and all that stuff and the alternate documents from mutualer. >> couldn't kellyanne conway get it thrown out if she were named it's probably harder for others to throw it out. >> i'm just saying it is curious her name hasn't come up. >> i'm starting to think our whole politics is being consumed by this and frankly nothing is going to break through. >> i think that may be true. when i hear jonathan say this is not going wiaway, it's going toe with us next year and forever. there is a real dilemma. hugely important to the base. i'm sure there are people listening to me say they shouldn't make this the centerpiece who are raging against that. that's good and motivate informing the mid terms. i don't think long term it is a solution for the democratic party to win the wh

does not present a full threads don junior testified he did not know who that number's one, but corey lewandowski said that donald trump's residence that is a blocked phone line. the day after those phone calls, candidate trump made a big announcement. >> i am going to give a major speech on probably monday of next week, and we're going to be discussing all of the things that have taken place with the clintons. i think you're going to find it very informative and very, very interesting. >> congressman eric swalwell. let's talk about this first. there are calls between don junior. there's a call in between. was the committee able to determine anything about that call or whether don junior talked to his father? >> good evening, chris. no, the republicans who held the subpoena power were completely unwilling to subpoena donald trump jr.'s phone provider, who would have been able to tell us who that blocked number belonged to. we have a lot of circumstantial evidence that suggests that we would want to know whether or not candidate trump knew about the meeting. he was in the building. he was just one

long held out this narrative he's innocent of collusion because he couldn't even collude with corey lewandowski during the campaign, but he could easily be in jeopardy of obstructing justice because of how he operates. >> i think he's absolutely in jeopardy with that. two problems with the interview. one he goes in and lies, the others he goes in and kwon guesses to the crime. that may be the horns of his dilemma. if he lies, or tells the truth -- >> that is that what john dowd is worried about? >> he's under instruction from his laurtz not to say the things he said on television today. why do you think going in front of mueller would be different? >> what do you make of rudy giuliani as a character in the story? rudy giuliani was the man, chuck rosenberg, who was on tv before the hacked dnc e-mails came out. watch out, watch out, it's a much whispered theory, he has a pipeline from people at the fbi to get information. he's one of the people believed to be funneling information to fox news. do you think there is any point he might be a witness to the mueller investigation? >> potentially yes,
