daniel dale of "the toronto star," the official fact checker in this area told us in this very studio last week that no new wall construction is under way. that is our broadcast on a wednesday night. thank you so very much for being here with us and good night from nbc news headquarters here in new york. >>> tonight on "all in". >> it is up to the new attorney general that will be totally up to the new attorney general. >> making sense of the latest reportal. >> what are you doing with the president who obstructs justice? can the new attorney general keep the mule report away from the public? and tonight i'll ask all of those questions and more to the man who began the investigations into donald trump. former acting fbi chief, andrew mb kab. then america on alert in the age of trump.

out what he was talking about, and after hearing that our unofficial presidential fact checker, daniel dale of the "for on-toe star" and a frequent guest on this broadcast wrote on twitter wrote, trump calls the rio grande legendary. he says they started construction there today. not sure, but i know they were planning to start building their first new fencing of trump's tenure in the rio grande valley this week. again, outside of the trump rally there was the beto o'rourke-led counter event. o'rourke gave up his seat in congress for el paso for what became a losing senate campaign against ted cruz. nonetheless he remains a voice and tonight went after the president on his treatment of immigrants. >> we can show the rest of the country as we make our stand here together tonight that walls do not make us safer. walls will require us to take someone's property, their house, their farm, their ranch, to build a wall at a time of record-low northbound apprehensions. the president describes mexican immigrants as rapists and criminals. we have the chance to tell him and the country immigrants comm

daniel dale of "the toronto star," the official fact checker in this area told us in this very studio that no new wall construction is under way. that is our broadcast on a wednesday night. thank you so very much for being here with us and good night from nbc news headquarters here in new york. >>> this morning, the special counsel's investigation could be winding down. there's new reporting that robert mueller may soon hand over his final report to the attorney general. >>> plus, house democrats are preparing to take on president trump's emergency declaration. house speaker nancy pelosi is encouraging members of congress to block the order. >>> and vladimir putin says russia will target the u.s. with new weapons if the trump administration deploys missiles in europe.

daniel dale, his job happens to be washington correspondent for the toronto star. barbara mcquaid former u.s. attorney for the eastern district of michigan, back with us. and from the washington post. we welcome back veteran journalist. good evening to all of you, barbara, i have to start with you, it is a tour of clothing. at one point he also mentions how poor he is, when talking about the age of all of these items. add all of it up, it can't go over well with a businesslike law and order federal judge. >> that's right. i'm not surprised to see the judge suggest the idea of a gag order. in normal cases that don't get a lot of attention, that would be normal. in high profile cases, the judge has the discretion to implement a gag order, from preventing the defendant from getting a fair trial. she may be trying to save roger stone from himself. making all these statements and tainting a jury pool that will come in later and have to pass judgment on him. so i think that she has asked the parties to state if they have any objection and why. it wouldn't surprise me to

daniel dale of "the toronto star," the official fact checker in this area told us in this very studiounder way. that is our broadcast on a wednesday night. thank you so very much for being here with us and good night from nbc news headquarters here in new york. >>> happy to have you with us. before the inauguration in 2017, after the presidential election that had happened in november, be before the new president was sworn in at the end of january 2017, so it's when we knew trump was going to be the next president but before he actually was, during that interregnum, outgoing president barack obama announced to the american people that 35 suspected russian intelligence operatives would be kicked out of the united states. he announced that two russian government-owned compounds, big luxury compounds, mansions. one on long island, one in centreville, maryland, would be seized by the u.s. government because he said they were being

joining us now our friend and washington bureau chief daniel dale. the lies are ridiculous.e are we now? do you think the sefrt to disorient his own base? >> it's to disorient everyone. almost nothing he says about immigration is true. we're finishing the wall, not starting the wall. the wall has not been started. el paso used to be one of the most dangerous cities in the country before its fencing. it wasn't. they come in throu-- drugs come through the desert and they don't. he wants to keep deceiving people as long as possible and to some except it works. >> your big lie last year was the center of the hush money. as the bucket of immigration lies, is that overflowing and is it tied to some sort of anxiety about his political standing? >> i think it is for sure. this was an area that was central to his election, and i think he knows as we all do that he has not fulfilled his promises. and i think he clearly shows his anxiety when he tries to correct the chance of his own supporters, many of who know he's not building the wall. can't build the wall, he can't finish the wall

daniel dale counts of number of false statements the president has made.did here, dan, i just went straight to your site which i like to watch carefully, 4,238. you're very careful about this, they're false statements because you don't know about the intention necessarily of when the statements are made, is that correct? >> that's right. my count is lower than the post count because they count false and misleading misstatements. i simply count the false ones. i don't call them a list of lies because i don't know if the president is just confused or ignorant. >> i don't know if we should move on after that statement. i'm picking a couple you brought to note for us here, daniel. the wall. president trump saying if you look at el paso, if you look at certain places, but el paso is one of the most dangerous cities in the whole country. once the wall was completed, it became one of the safest, immediately. what's your take as you were looking through this. >> neither part of that two-part statement is correct. el paso was not one of the most dangerous cities in

and danielle dale, washington bureau chief for "the toronto star." ladies, first. francessca, what do you make of stephen miller's explanation when trump himself said, i didn't need this. is this the narrative the white house is going to be going with? >> yeah, it's clearly problematic to say that it's an emergency that other presidents have just ignored. this is exactly the first line that democrats went to on friday after the president made this announcement, and this is what they're using to say that not only is it unconstitutional, it's not an actual national emergency. and so if this is the line the white house is going with, i expect we'll see this come up time and time again, not just from democrats, but in those legal cases that you're describing that are going to ultimately, as the president says, probably make their way all the way up to the supreme court. >> yeah. let's get to charlie's article. and i can talk to you about that, charlie. because you are making the argument quite clearly and pretty emphatically here that presidents for decades have declar
