let's bring in danielle booth and bill smede.3%, the nasdaq 570%, remarkable run but in your opinion does it come to an end this year? >> well, look, the bull market is very long in the tooth, so is the current economic expansion. we're seein seeing jitters fromr pockets of the world. we saw china exports weak, german production missed consensus by 3 percentage points. we have to say if we're on the p opposite end of the global reflation trade, if 2019 is going to be the year that we finally see the end of this bull market run. ashley: bill, as we look at this jobs report coming out in just under about three hours from now, is there something you can look at in that report that shows maybe something to worry about with regard to the economy? >> well, we are long duration investors, so we don't look at the little wiggles and to us those are little wiggles. so what we're thinking about right now is a much stronger economy the next 10 years than people expect, just due to sheer demographic numbers, but the irony of common stock owne

let's get to it with janine, daniel and bill. you don't get your way, force your way.rough? >> i don't like it. norms of traditions are important in a democracy. i think as we relate to court packing, we saw it with scalia jr. talked about, getting rid of the filibusters and the blue ships. once you start unwinding things when you're not getting your way, be careful. time will come when the shoe is on the other foot and you're suffering because the other team is wanting to pack the courts or -- >> neil: so bill, how much traction do you think this is getting? not in a substantive way but political traction. a lot of the leading candidates like these ideas. >> yeah, it's completely silly on the 16-year-olds. my youngest just turned 16. >> neil: will he take out the garbage? >> i'll put it this way, her mother doesn't trust her to pick her clothes. it's interesting that democrats seem to recognize the least informed segment of the american community, 16-year-olds as natural democratic voters that strikes me. most of these are just -- >> neil: there's the demographics, pu

. >> bill: you have a closed case. daniel, where are you to understand all this now? >> absolutely.between law enforcement and prosecutors and decisions are made. sometimes you like them and sometimes you don't. the challenge here was the complete disrespect for superintendent, the chicago police department and community. there were conversations with smollett and his team. get a deal to do the community service he did over the weekend. it was a recusal from the attorney that wasn't going to be in charge of the case. recusing yourself doesn't mean your first assistant makes the decision essential in this case. you bring in a prosecutor from another county. the fact she admitted she was conflicted in the process and had her office continue the program is a concern for the bar board in chicago and maybe the state ethics commission. they could have some information there. >> bill: the head of the police union, you can just imagine how they're feeling right now. they really feel like they had a finger put in their eye. kevin graham early in our program here. >> also think it is unpreced

german ambassador daniel cleena president nicolas maduro has accused embassador crean of interfering in venezuela's internal affairs often he expressed support for opposition leader one by bill why this is the german ambassador should stay on and has called on europe to tighten sanctions against the regime why there was speaking during ash wednesday mouse in caracas. this regime the disease power has no right to declare any one persona non-grata this is simply a threat and that's how it should be sane by the free world the german ambassador and his country have helped bring in humanitarian i. think it's aims to madeira regime one tolerate anyone who wants to help and it's why law. i would. mean like jim is fine mr has condemned the decision to expel them buses or caracas mohsen and jimmy would continue to support the opposition media one by bill these kinds of lies and outs of. this will in no way mean that we would reconsider our support for one y. dollars and term president with the task of organizing free fair and democratic elections is a good thing. to supporters in revokable and it will state our vote just large so that was germany's foreign minister now the vice presi

betwee fox news and the trump white house, of course bill shine a former fox executive, and one of the charges in that speech is that the stormy daniels story came to t light from a reporter within fox news, and it was basically put to rest. and it wasn't allowed to be published. this is significant. no word yet on who is going to replace bill shine. it comes against the backdrop, andrea, of this twitter feud between president trump and his former attorney michael cohen, the president essentially saying michael cohen asked him, mr. president, this is international women's day, you may want to use the day to apologize for your own lies and dirty deeds, then named stephanie mcdougal and stormy daniels. based on my reporting, andrea, lanny davis telling me earlier this week that it was cohen who directed his attorney to discuss the possibility of a pardon with president trump's attorney. we have of course reached back out to our sources to try to clarify and see what the truth is behindwh the president's twe. we'll let you know as soon as we find out, andrea. >> on top of all of this, of course, all of the other issues facing the preside

about the reality of the situation here, that stormy daniels is stripping on an 18-inch bar in richmond, virginia, hoping to get a few dollar bills maybe the occasional 5 tucked in her garter, while he is sitting there in a $4,000 suit, making exploratory trips to iowa and new hampshire. in a way, it ties in with everything else we've been talking about this past hour. the way the media have been pushing things that are obviously phony down the throats of the american people, and no matter how often, they are basically like a kind of army of yosemite sames. they keep sticking the dynamite down their own pants and no matter how often brian stelter's pants are dynamited and anderson cooper's pants are dynamited and don lemon's pants are dynamited, they'll fall for the very next creepy porn extortionist tube t comes a long parade >> tucker: but why is it -- i noticed a theme here with michael avenatti, hary weinstein, many of these presidential candidates. what about the democratic party and their handmaidens in the media attract them to the worst people in the world? it's always be unusually bad people they wind up celebrating. why

bill clinton. donald trump is not going to get impeached and people are not going to react to the payment of hush money to stormy daniels or to a play biobunny, but if we're talking about working together with russia in order to hack democratic institutions in the united states and compromise the integrity of the election, i think that's an entirely different array of crimes because that goes into a level of national security and treason. people think he's committed crimes, i'm not sure they know exactly which crimes. the american people do not believe the majority of them that donald trump is honest and we have seen time and time again evidence of malfeasance, pushing the envelope, crossing the line, bending the laws to benefit them. to me it's about what crime, if any, is revealed under the investigation. >> in terms of these investigations, what may be revealed, one of the names that is not on this list of 81 people and entities is getting a lot of attention as we know is ivanka trump, who let's be honest, not only, of course, is the first daughter but is senior adviser to the president and part of the campaign and k

daniel, his criticisms of jeff sessions. i mean, that is so 2018. jeff sessions is not the attorney general any more. he has a new attorney general, bill barr. why is he still going back and accusing and criticizing jeff sessions? there is a new guy in charge. >> yeah. he is nursing these old wounds he is never going to get over. you know? 20 years from now, if he is still alive, he will be criticizing jeff sessions. i think he sees sessions refusal to recuse himself as at the core of his problems in washington that there will would be no mueller investigation if jeff sessions was still attorney general and interfering in the investigation. let's think about it. his criticism of sessions is ridiculous because would we want an attorney general who is a top surrogate for the president overseeing an investigation into the president? this is something that fox news would be going crazy over if the same thing happened in the obama presidency. >> you're saying "we" "guei gues the we of the country. he likely would. >> trump doesn't have a full understanding of the rules and regulations involving recusing yourself and sometimes he doesn't know -- h
