we learned one other story about dave hawkins from his family. without having one of his children or grandchildren alongside. a completely positive person -- that's how they described him. so positive that he'd answer the phone "good morning," whether it was morning or night. in fact, after he passed, they had t-shirts made that said "good morning" with "gramps" on the sleeve to wear their first christmas without dave. thanks so much for joining us for "strange inheritance." i'm jamie colby. remember -- you can't take it with you. do you have a strange inheritance story you'd like to share with us? we'd love to hear it. send me an e-mail or go to our website, strangeinheritance.com. >> found in grandpa's attic... >> it was a dirty, dusty old box. and then it's like, "wow. i don't know what it is." >> ...a discovery that will make the baseball world flip. >> you've got honus wagner, ty cobb, cy young, christy mathewson. >> i'm thinking to myself, "oh, my god. i have $1 million sitting in a chair." >> but is it almost too much of a good thing? >> i

so what does dave make of late night in the age of trump?n. since you left late night, there's a new president of the united states, you may have noticed. do you miss being on late night for that fact? >> no because -- well, first of all, the people who are in charge now do a really good job of it, and as i've said before, it's like painting the golden gate bridge, you know. as soon as you're done, you got to start all over. and it would be the same night after night after night. and as an american, i don't like this man as a president of our country. i love being in america, but i don't feel he represents me. even with other presidents that i've disagreed with politically, i felt like okay, i can live with their representation. but i'm sick and tired of everybody wringing their hands about this. oh, my god, did you hear what he did, this and that? yeah. okay. we have. we've all heard it. let's just settle this at the next election. you know? let's stop yakking about what a goon he is. >> how would you approach it? >> my approach would have

good to see you. >> reporter: good morning dave and christine. we really got an idea just how much president trump trusts kim jong un from this presser. the president saying that he was not bothered by those short range ballistic missile tests that north korea launched last month. despite the outlook of his own advisers and the outlook of japanese prime minister shinzo abe kwhowho was standing a few away from the president saying the missile launches were of great regret. quite a bit of distance between these two leaders on that issue. listen to what president trump said about these tests and his relationship with kim jong un. >> i am very happy with the way it's going. and intelligent people agree with me. >> you're not bothered at all by the small missiles. >> i am not. i am personally not. my people think it could have been a violation, as you know. i view it differently. i view it as a man, perhaps he wants to get attention. and perhaps not. who knows. >> keep in mind, trump is saying this just a few hours after having met with the families o

genie: dave keating reporting from brussels. back in washington, a house of representatives panel has voted to hold attorney general william barr in contempt ofof congress r not releasing an unredacted copy of the report on russian elecection meddling. the judiciary committee took ,hat step after tensions rose after donald trump used his executive privilege for the first time to blolock disclosure of the mueller report as it did not conclude that there was a criminal conspiracy between moscow and the trump campaign to influence the 2016 u.s. presidential election. it did, however, detail 10 instances where trump possibly attempted to impede the investigation. here is more from the committee chairman. >> this was a grave and momentous step that we were forced to take today to move aa contempt citation against the attorney general of the united states.. therere can bebe no highgher sts --n thiss attttempt too arrogae to arrogate all powers away from congress a and from the american people. we have talkedd f for a long tie about ap

dave and christine? >> thank you for that. attorney general barr will defend his handling of the mueller report in front of the senate judiciary committee today at 10:00 a.m. eastern time. sitting on the committee, three running for president. barr's motives are suspect. >> i think it's just one more example of how this four-page letter that he sent out was political and this is not about politics, it's protecting our democracy. this is someone who just pointed out, you know, tried out for the job with his 19-page memo that was executive summary of what he thought should be about a broad, broad interpretation of executive power. he gets into the job and no surprise, he is political. >> right now, house judiciary chairman jerry nadler is in a stand off with barr over the second scheduled testimony this week on thursday. nadler is demanding a copy of mueller's letter saying the special counsel must be allowed the testify. >> we know how barr is going to testify from prepared remarks. after the special coun

joining me now reporter for the hill and dave levienthol. look, the president has denied any conflict within his cabinet on the issue of iran, and then you have ali's report and you hear what's going on from the ground there, the heightened tensions, the fact it goes up and down, up and down on a moments notice. where does the truth lie? >> well, it's really hard to tell at this point, alex, because we're actually seeing a lot of inconsistencies with how president trump has handled the situation as well as other situations during his administration in the past. we'll see the president send out these very bombastic tweets suggesting there could be some sort of armed conflict in the future. but then we hear reports he's backing down or he'll say he doesn't want an armed conflict. we hear people like administration officials like john bolton who have been very much, you know, pushing for some sort of potential confrontation in the persian gulf and obviously john bolton has pushed for similar action in the past. we know he's very much of a hawk

nothing's happening we don't expect anything to happen so what was the last 3 or 4 weeks all about dave go ahead in philadelphia. it's pretty hard to figure in oh i've been looking at this and scratching my head which isn't good because i don't have any here and so you know it leaves marks. you know trump and so the only thing trying to spin consistent on is saying that obama made the world's worst deal with erin on the nuclear fuel enrichment agreement. which the u.s. of course is always expanded into you know a huge agreement that iran is supposedly violating the terms of. but you know aside from that he's totally inconsistent he's talked about bombing iraq until it doesn't exist he's talked about wanting to strike a great deal with the rand you know he's back and forth. and what i think has happened is that he's farmed out his foreign policy to bolton then pompei oh and by then bolton is a crazy man who has for years had this ambition to be in charge and i think he's actually overstepped his authority enormously ordering an aircraft carrier out you know i don't think that was trump t

i'm dave briggs, it is 5:00 a.m. in the east, and we start with mr.ller, the special counsel robert mueller has finally spoken offering up his first public comments on the russia investigation after two years of silence. his words offering clear discrepancy with the explanations from the attorney general bill barr. and even though the justice department and mueller's office released a joint statement claiming there is no conflict between them, t

. >> joining us from washington, axios editor dave waller.ave, let's talk about this meeting between the secretary of state and of course, sergey lavrov. we heard the russians calling this baseless. and using the word "collusion" which is interesting because that is a word that we've heard the president use over and over again. then we heard pompeo say they are not on the same page when it comes to election interference. but it seems as if putin is certainly on the same page as of president of the united states, maybe not on the same page as secretary of state mike pompeo. we also know that russians are clearly backing up trump on the mueller probe. but they want russia to butt out of american politics. can they have this both ways? >> right. so the tricky thing here for pompeo, he was actually sent to moscow with the mission of getting a better relationship with russia. that's what donald trump says he wants. he's basically said we can draw a line under the mueller report and move on to better relations with russia. russia is obviously sayin

christine and dave? >> nick watt in denver, thank you. >>> the trump administration is prepared to invoke executive privilege over the entire mueller report, if they move forward with the vote to hold attorney general bill barr in contempt by invoking executive privilege. the trump administration would be trying to prevent them from key figures. how hard to push the president. here is manu raju. >> good morning. house democrats are planning to still hold the attorney general bill barr in contempt later this morning, after he has not provided the full mueller report and underlining evidence that democrats demanded. they have been having discussions to head off this vote. democrats are pushing forward. this could be the first time of holding a senior member of the trump administration in contempt after refuseing a range of requests. this is one they issued a subpoena for. no, the other was don mcgahn's records and testimony. the democrats hoped would cooperate as part of their investigation into it. the wh

. >> i'm dave briggs. it is friday may 3rd. it's world press freedom day. president trump was thrilled with the mueller report, but the white house not so much. a top white house lawyer, emmett flood, accused mueller's team of playing politics, laying out a litany of facts far more detailed than what's typically involved in a criminal indictment. a letter to william barr after the release of the report. >> flood described the report as part law school exam paper. it is true the mueller report did not establish a criminal conspiracy between the trump campaign and the russians. mueller did unearth substantial evidence of obstruction by president trump without saying whether he should be prosecuted, a move the attorney general questioned on capitol hill this week. >> the president touted the report as total vindication, even though possible obstruction came up about a dozen times. that includes when the president told then white house counsel don mcgahn to remove mueller. last week, house judiciary chairman jerry nadler subpoenaed mcgahn to testify. now the pr
