if it does, how? >> the president himself has been pushing from day one the narrative that the mueller investigation is part of a democratic sinister, nefarious democratic operation to try to take him down and undermine his presidency. that has been his core message. his aides and allies have been putting out there for the last year and change that mueller has been operating. it's something that, based on focus groups and polling, seems tocatching up and catching with his -- with his base. his base seems to basically buy in to this notion that the mueller probe is3 angry democrats even though it is just not an accurate way of characterizing te who are working on the investigation. >> eli, do you think the president's kind of losing touch with what his voters really want? when we were on the campaign trail with him, he was out and talking to people almost every day. he's very sporadically out in the country now. very sporadically hearing those roars from the crowds. do you think that potentially he's l

for what purpose does does the -- >> i thank the majority. >> i thank the gentleman from connecticut sm it is this compelling argument as we as a nation willing to make the commitment to ensure our future national security. mr. wittman: we are losing submarines because we are not building them fast enough to replace the ones that are retiring. the chinese in 2020 will have 70 submarines and building them at a rate of six per year. in 2029, when we have 22, they will have 224. are we willing to look at our children and grandchildren and tell them when we had a chance to do something, we didn't do it. at 5:48 today, there was an article that said congress faces last chance to add two virginia class submarines. last chance. here's our chance to deal what is our right to national security and look at our children and grandchildren and we saw what was coming and we stood strong and we built the submarines necessary. mr. chairman, i yield back. the chair: the gentleman yields back the balance of his time. mr. courtney: i yield 30 seconds of mr. gallego of arizona. mr. gallego: i rise in su

indeed, russia does.t we want to see in relation that we seeactually the efforts to bring about a political solution and future stability and security for the syrian people beat brought about -- a be brought about through the united nations process. he talked about the attitude of the united states and whether or not as allies we are working together. if we just look at recent action the u.s. has taken, which has supported the united kingdom in terms of the number of russian diplomats that they expelled after the salisbury incident, in solidarity with us and others around the world took action. and of course, the americans recently took action in relation to extra sanctions on russians. is between weant are able to sit down and talk about these issues, to share the information we need to share, and be able to determine a way forward. on the steel and aluminum tariffs, i was very clear to president trump, clear to this house and elsewhere, these are unjustified. the european union will take countermeasures

what does it cost amazon? what does it cost the mandolin seller. are there different -- i don't know. do you know? do you know what it costs amazon? >> i do not know what it costs amazon. but i do know in the calf gnaw -- cavanaugh report that we cited indicated that the cost of just implementation and integration of a software system, before you're dealing any of the other issues, it costs up to $250,000. that the maintenance of the system -- >> $12. we know that, too. the figure seems a little misleading. i guess the real question that justice breyer may be getting at and i would like your help on it too is the xafrt -- comparative difference. states may force internet providers to provide information like colorado does that enable them to collect tax from the taxpayer. the real delta here isn't no duty at all on the internet supplier versus collecting sales taxes. it's something like colorado's regime collecting sales tax. do you have any information at all as to which is a lesser burden. i wondered whether the colorado regime might be more burd

so what does that mean? what it means is that spent nuclear fuel in the place of a nuclear that's got generating station between l.a. and san francisco on the pacific ocean, it stays right there. what that means for my colleague, dan newhouse from washington state, that the defense liability hanniford on the columbia river stays right there. from my friends in chicago, that nuclear power generating station on lake michigan stays right there. what about savanna river, the savanna river site? it stays right next to the savanna river. versus 90 miles away in the desert underneath a mountain on federal property. so when the local concern is addressed about the local issue, the local consensus is really the department of interior. the department of defense. the department of energy. that federal land is larger than the state of connecticut. that's the local concern that we're dealing with and we're addressing here. this is all the operating commercial nuclear power plants. that's why there's 31 states, 121 locati

it does tie it together there. i know the code can be complicated and convoluted, and at times, but we do apply and interpret it consistently. it has been done this way for decades. the appellant argues that we cannot have a cu hearing at the same time as a variance hearing. there's nothing in the planning code in section three '05 which discusses variances and schedules of hearings. it explicitly states the zoning administrator is responsible for setting the time and date of these hearings. it does not say that these hearings can't be held concurrently. certainly, and sometimes, given the process, we may have a variance hearing before a planning commission considers an item but we very often, you will see most of the downtown projects that will have their planning commissioner view. it could be a conditional use authorization or a downtown authorization at the same time, they will have a joint meeting on any variances. there has been a long-standing process for decades to have the variances hurried at the same tim

francine: does it invert? andrew: we think it does invert by early next year.he market is concerned that what the fed is doing will ultimately not be sustainable over a longer time. francine: do you look at markets or do you focus on the broader economics? >> more on the broader economics. it is also the first time in a long time that we are seeing the tightening monetary policy and easing fiscal policy. francine: i guess the million dollar question is, does an inverted yield curve mean an impending economic slowdown, which can lead to recession, or is this time different? andrew: usually it does. it is dangerous to say this time is different. we are currently not forecasting a dramatic one. i don't think any investors are. one of the most widely held views we encounter for investors is the next recession isn't until 2020 or later. we all know that everybody in the market is quite bad at four seeing recessions, downs, for a variety of reasons. francine: understatement of the year. andrew: our view is we are later in the cycle than the market is discounting and

and then how does it work their sense of intimacy or family or ideas of safety and how does it affect the way that they interact with each other and the way they interact with their children, right? those are things i've been thinking about lot lately in my work. the reason that i write, that most of my work is fiction and not nonfiction is because writing nonfiction is actually really hard for me. writing fiction is easier. it comes easier. the process is more intuitive and it feels more organic, whereas when i write creative nonfiction, not only do i have to sort of work against my usual process, because my usual process is, i began with my main characters and i have a vague idea of where they're going. but nothing is plotted out, where as with creative nonfiction i can put everything out from the beginning. i have to plan everything from the very beginning. so not only is the process much different and much harder for me because it's much more deliberate i guess, it's also, creati nfictio is more difficult for me because it demands honesty. it demands also a certain amount of, like

. >>> that does it for us. now it's time for the last word with ally velshi. >> i'm ali velshi sitting in for lawrence o'donnell. nbc news has obtained a new court filing, where robert muthe cour revoke paul manafort's release. saying he attempted to tamper with potential witnesses. it say gs paul manafort called, texted and sent messages to two witnesses in february, quote, in an effort to secure materially false testimony. this outreach apparently occurred following the disclosure of an indictment of manafort. they're calling for a hearing brought forth by the fbi tonight and to see if the release order should be revoked or revised. joining us now mimi rocah and harry litman. i'm grateful that you're both here to help make sense of this. mimi let's start with you. what does this all mean? >> it likely means manafort is i would be surprised iw. judge did not revoke his bail based on this. you know, when prosecutors find out that someone is trying to tamper with a witness, which is what happened here, often it'

does the right thing. we need to pass the burn pits accountability act that i introduced with my friend and post-9/11 veteran congressman brine mast. we know there's a core -- brian mast. we know there's correlation between burn pits exposures and these illnesses. this amendment serves as a shining light to our post-9/11 veterans that they're not alone and that they've not been forgotten. it builds on the progress to ensure that ever service member and veteran who was exposed to burn pits gets the care and services that they've earned and deserve. i appreciate chairwoman granger and ranking member visclosky for their attention and raising this important issue and allowing these amendments to come to the floor. our veterans care very much to see that congress is taking action in the absence of leadership, and i urge my colleagues to support in amendment. i yield back. the chair: yield back or reserve? ms. gabbard: reserve. the chair: reserve. for what purpose does the gentlewoman from texas seek recognition

reporter: on immigration, what does the president want to see the house of representative does in the next week? sarah: we've laid that out. we'd like to see a permanent solution to fix the loopholes and secure the border. reporter: on daca? an upcoming vote, is there a particular vote he favors? sarah: he wants to see all of the different components that we laid out several months ago addressed and if any of the legislation comes to the table that would create a permanent solution, that does that, then we would support it. reporter: on that subject. the presence threat of tariffs. that does that mean he will withdraw from nafta in the coming days? sarah: don't have any announcements on that. reporter: to follow up on the question of whether the president believes the inspector general was thorough. there's been call for a second special counsel. would the president support an inquiry into the special counsel's report or does this settle the matter? sarah: this creates a great deal of concern and we're going to tune in to director ray's comments this afternoon. but certainly there are

what good does that do? dreamers are still left wondering when and what congress will do to help them stay in this country. let's end this charade and actually have a debate, a bipartisan debate, and let's pass a bipartisan bill to provide a pathway to citizenship for dreamers. mr. speaker, this has been a crazy week, for sure, but if one thing is clear, if we want to pass a fix for daca, we need to come together and pass a bipartisan bill. this previous question vote gives us the chance to do just that. vote no on the previous question and bring up the queen of the hill rule. thank you and i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from texas. the gentleman reserves. the gentlelady from california. mrs. torres: mr. speaker, i yield 1 1/2 minutes to the gentleman from mississippi, the distinguished ranking member of the committee on homeland security, mr. thompson. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized for 1 1/2 minutes. mr. thompson: thank you, mr. speaker. and i thank the gentlelad

the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentleman seek -- does the gentleman seek recognition? without objection the gentleman is recognized for one minute. >> i rise to recognize paul hammer, 2018 spelling bee ampion and two-time scripp's national spelling beacon tesstant. last year he finished 38th, and this year he tied for fifth, the best finish ever far monterey student. a lot of ways, spaul normal and t, he likes weird al other things. paul's father said paul stud yid over 50,000 words this year. that's impressive because the typical english-speaking 20-year-old american only knows 42,000 wordsful during last thursday's scripps national bee, he confidently spelled words that most people couldn't pronounce like rubricate, an impressive run and finish for an intelligent young man. congratulations, paul, you should be proud of your hard work because from the central coast of california to here in the u.s. congress we are proud of you. thank you, mr. speaker, i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman yields. for what purpose does the gentleman from florida seek re

what does that mean for our future? >> i think what donald trump doesn't appear to understand in any of this is not just that this is the rules-based international order that we built, but this is the rules-based international order that we actually wrote. it works in our favor. it works in the favor of liberal democracies around the globe. it allows for free trade, it allows for partnership across the board. this is what the american -- this is what our american system of international relations has been predicated upon since the end of world war ii. what vladimir putin wants to replace it with is something that does not at all resemble what has allows us to thrive, what has allowed us with our soft power to spread our values around the world, and what has allowed us to flourish as an economy. donald trump is really, whether he knows it or not, trying to tear all of that down. >> you're there, we're not. what's the reaction like in canada on the ground? >> the reaction is people are taken aback by the idea that the uni

he does. he does, everybody. i just tested him. he does. he speaks it very well.t example of the strides the latino community are making toward being recognized in mainstream america. seeing people who look like you in hollywood can be empowering, especially for kids who are just discovering who they are and where they come from. next, i want to talk again with hector and denise from las cafeteras. they have both talked about their specific struggles growing up and trying to figure out how they fit into all the different cultures they represent. i've also heard the word chicano and chicana. i've also heard the word hispanic. i've heard the word latino/latina. give any a breakdown of what those words mean, which ones are the words you choose and why you choose those words? >> chicano and chicana are a term that came from the streets, like brown is beautiful. we want access to like the same rights and privileges and quality of life as anybody else. hispanic, i don't know where that -- >> wasn't that reagan? >> so that's the white man's word? >> it's a white man's wo

does competition from these big tech companies, does that hurt your business or help it >> they've been partners, but like anything in software and infrastructure, they're competitors and partners our overall business is growing quite quickly. last quarter we reported 53% year over year growth in our subscription revenue business. the fastest growing piece of that business is the cloud business each of those three players, amazon, google, microsoft have all partnered with us, and they have invested in the success and growth of atlas. they know at the core, if they can get the data into their cloud, that's what creates the stickiness for revenue and their selling of storage >> how big of a market is china to your company? we're early on in china because it is a global opportunity for us we have some initial successes there like with china eastern airlines, last quarter volkswagen china but we're continuing to see the market, and it's become one of our largest. >> are you worried about what's happening on the trade front >> on the trade front it doesn't affect us directly business leaders

host: why does this rise to the national security level? guest: you can ask that question -- you would have to ask the american authorities. .e do not believe it is we believe it is a safeguard measure and we think in the case of european exports experts are -- exports are high-value, niche products that are inputs to the american processor would be to make in the economy -- the american economy stronger. host: you do not know why this is a security issue? guest: the documents we have seen make the case that heal and aluminum are important to nationals -- steal and aluminum are important to national security. are inf the tariffs place, what is the response from the eu? guest: we have said clearly we would preserve our right to impose rebalancing terrorists on an equivalent amount of american exports. of course we wait to see what the final position is, but our position has been if tariffs are imposed we would impose rebalancing tariffs on american exports. host: on what type of product? guest: it is a long list of products, stretching from

we just does not have the people. technologykind of would this gentleman and perhaps the chinese government have acquired? through.is case did go the assets were sold to this company called avatar, which is backed by chinese individuals that have a lot of money. it was a steel business. atopompany that it bought, tech company in california, was a leading designer of microchips that could be used for a lot of, from electronics to missiles to computers, mobile phones. so here is an example where the chinese company with clearly some ties to the chinese government -- how much, we don't actually know -- now has access to and effectively owns this american company. is what set off some alarms among people who watch these cases. this whole bankruptcy court thing is something we never thought of. so one of the bills that is going through congress does have some language in it that would toower cfius and urge cfius put more resources towards figuring out are there more cases like this in bankruptcy courts that they should be

she does not want that. he i is part of the christian social uninion, which h is the sister party of angela merkel's own party. i will underline how strange this is. you could expect a coalition government to split along ideological lines with the social democrats. it''s the coconservative bloc tt is split over immigration. angela merkel offered s some compromise deals, , asked him to waitit for twowo week's for the european summit at the end of the month. we were just hearing about it. that was too long a wait for him. and it needs to be said that he and his party, the christian bigal union facing elections in bavaria, regional elections in october and that undoubtedly has an on his position. it's monday when we find out if things are going to come to a head. molly: how are we seeing public opinion split on this? ick: thehe newspaper i just showed you p put -- publishehedn 87% of poll sayingng that germans want to see a hardening of immigration policies. is a a certain amount of fatigue in germany, which we

how does the president view him today and does he feel this investigation? sarah: again, the president thinks that this report reaffirms the suspicions he had about comey. and director ray is going to hold a press conference later today and i would encourage you to tune in for that. reporter: the text message exchange highlighted in the report come ultimately the fbi agent said it was referring to a candidate cap coming president. does the president have any reaction to this information when you spoke with him after he was briefed today? sarah: certainly, again, causes a great deal of concern. and i think points out the political bias that the president's been talking about and that has been repeatedly mentioned from this administration, that we found to be a huge problem and we're glad they're looking into it. reporter: did the president or anyone else from the trump foundation, use funds to pay for personal business or campaign? sarah: i'm not aware of any of that taking place. reporter: can you definitively say no? sarah: i'm not aware of it. i'd have to

much does this benefit the hong kong market?t, xiaomi is the only one to file for an ipo with dual class shares. there are others coming along. and speaking to bankers others, there is a full pipeline in hong kong.st there was a second part, the biotech companies that don't have any revenue yet. there are a lot of those companies applying to list. year or twoct in a bank we will look back and see quite a transformation in terms of the types of companies listing here and the change from the hong kong focus on finance and real estate towards technology. it will be quite dramatic within a few years. we have to get you back at xiaomi,t, looking theahead of that, this is company and how much it is worth. valuation given market sentiment and shrinking liquidity right now is too high. at this point in time, the vitae wish in the market is willing to to this business, which is basically a hardware manufacturing business, is actually relatively low. how do you react to that? >> i agree. from a chinese hardware perspective, especially a-s

>> motion does not carry. >> yeah, the motion does not carry with that motion. >> so without a further motion, then -- >> i'll move to adopt the finding and grant the appeal. >> okay. so we have a motion from president fung to grant the appeals and adopt the findings on what -- on the basis that the permit was properly -- was not properly issued. >> that's correct. >> okay. on that -- on that motion -- [roll call] >> okay. so that motion fails. >> you need a break? then let's go to the next case. >> okay. so the permit, it is upheld by operation of law. we do not have enough votes to grant the appeal, so we are going to move onto the next item, which is item

does this give north korea too ? think this is smart bit of expectations managing from the white house, and in president trump. i cannot believe all it will be a meet and greet, there has to be something, something on denuclearization. and something on security side that has to come out of the singapore meeting, otherwise, you and i talked about it last week, folks from not just from theted states, south korea, japan, would be all over and real credibility of how this administration deals with north korea. would be terribly hard. i do expect something substantial to come out. but now, white house has done an excellent job of expectations management. more than that, i think north koreans have done a great job of pulling back this -- to the extent where they really don't have to give much. >> how about the logistics, this is the peace that fascinates me. the new york times is reporting the details are still being ironed out for singapore, and including exactly where it will be held. might it be the shangri-la where a l

does that mean that vladimir putin outside of the g7 does he now have a bigger voice on the world stage. and, of course, people bring up the fact that the president is leaving early tomorrow morning. he's skipping a meeting about climate change, which is a big deal for a lot of our allies that are trying to work with us after he pulled out of the paris accord that he's going to leave to meet with the north korean leader in singapore, people are worried that's given someone else more of a voice and a platform. so it's the future of world order. >> as all of this is happening, china is trying to be and is more ascendant in the world. it's not just that the united states is weakening our allies. it's by weakening the western alliance it is strengthening the hand of both russia and china at a time they are trying and are being more assertive and powerful in the world stage. so it is a little bit of a zero sum game, the weakening of american leadership is strengthening essentially countries that have been identified as more of our adversaries by this national security council. >> thank you f

and it does other it does -- it does look a little warmer on this first day of summer.pell -- >>> the pipe parade in-- pride parade in san francisco. >> ktvu's amber lee gives us a sneak peek at some of the floats. >> reporter: at a warehouse along the waterfront, crews are busy putting the finishing touches on the floats they've built for the 40th annual pride celebration and parade. the floats are whimsical in design. clear in their message about inclusion. >>political. it's a parade -- political parade. even more it's more -- though it's more of a party that it's used don't -- than it used to be, it still is political. >> reporter: disco music is being played in the castro. it sets the backdrop to the homageof iconic figures of the lgbtq community. a cocktail is a tribute to the -- the owners say pride is remembrance and resistance. >> reflective but also with -- we still have a lot of work to do. >> reporter: he anticipates business will be up as much as 40% compared to a normal weekend. he says visitors from as far away as europe are in here to celebrate. >> it's r

does more immigration help ordinary americans? does it improve the country?r does it just enrich an elite class, the policy making class at the expense of everyone else? very few people are asking that question. but one who is, is michael antone who just wrote a piece in the "washington post" saying why do we need more people anyway? that is a good question so we are kicking off tonight's special with him. thank you for joining us. >> thank you for having me. >> tucker: i'm glad you asked this. do we need a there of a million new people in america every year? what was your conclusion? >> my conclusions let's look at the answers that people give for why and exam them. they don't bear examination. reason number one is we need workers. we have all the jobs and we need workers. that sounds plausible when we have a low unemployment rate for the first time in a long time. but the low unemployment rate is achievement of the trump economy coming after 20 years of the wage stagnation and wage declines for working and middle class americans. i remember the 1990s when t

why does that happen? i was fortunate enough to be invited to this position to examine that and is there a way to remedy that? one first thing i learned through due diligence in the corporate sense, looking at numbers, was that in the energy economy which i was close to, there was a lot of investment going on. a lot of growth. there was no growth in federal lands. so you had investment in private land and state land and other countries going like this, and investment going into federal holdings going down like this. so, that is a problem, because as fiduciaries, on behalf of the taxpayers to manage these assets, we need to figure out a better return on our equity. so, going out and talking to folks, and looking at policies and examining how the dollars are flowing and where they went, it became apparent that the cost of compliance and the lack of regulatory certainty and stability and the duration of time that it was taking to do business the federal government was really driving dollars to a different dir

where does it say in the bible that it moral to take children prrp from their mothers? biblical to enforce the law. that is actually repeated a number of times throughout the bible. however -- hold on, jim, if you'll let me finish. again, i'm not going to comment on the attorney's specific comments i haven't seen. >> you just said it's in the miebl. and please don't take my words out of context. but the separation of illegal alien families is the product of the same legal loopholes that democrats refused to close and these laws are the same as mr. >> it's a policy -- when they come across the border, they're with their parents and suddenly they're pulled away from their parents . >> you're right. it doesn't have to be the law. the president has called on congress to fix those loopholes. the democrat has failed to come to the table. we don't want this to be a problem. a number of occasions, we've laid out a proposal. and simply and she says it the democrats who are to blame and what could fix this. >> brook, i wish i could answer your questions. i don't understood snochl

>> i think that it does matter. in our case, you know, you had ken burns who did his research and seeked the truth and seeked justice. and he knew that we were innocent, so he stepped up and decided to do something for it. and i think that that weighs a lot. our celebrities, this is what they're supposed to do. they have this major influence. they have a duty to the public, those people who support them. they're supposed to champion for a cause like this. >> i just want to read a portion of the full-page ad that then donald trump took out this the "daily news," this was back in 1989, about you and the your co-defendants. he wrote, quote, criminals must be told that their civil liberties end when an attack on our safety begins." does that at all sound like the same man who's pardoning people who have a criminal record now? >> i mean, it might look like there's a change, but i don't want to give him that pass just yet. he needs to do more for our community. we have a lot of issues. if you want to pardon people, speak

what does that tell us?tical player. it also i think he does not go to china without any strings attached. he wants china to lobby the united nations security council to lift the sanctions for it. i suppose the chinese will much obliged to say, yes, we are going to help you. but we do not know how the security council is going to respond. he wants that help to help them when they are changing their economic policies. i guess for the chinese, there is also something to gain from it, the fact that china releases photos before kimjong—un safely went back shows that china is happily playing along. china wants to tell the united states in particular that china is a serious player in this rather congregated relationship as well. a confiscated relationship between —— complicated relationship, a looming trade spat, is it possible that kimjong looming trade spat, is it possible that kim jong and could play one—off against the other? very possible. also both us and china want something completely different. america wa

how does want honorable they fit into -- how does guantanamo bay fit into the context? if you look at the newspaper, you will see the picture of the marines landing at guantanamo bay in 1898. abattalion of marines takes camp and establishes the base there today. look at the marines. who was there with them to talk about it? stephen crane, one of the best accountants of military action. you are going to see a pattern develop of battalions and regimens doing things, and famous recorders trailing along with them. this is 1898. take a look at this. is a detachment of marines that comes off ship and goes to rescue of the consulates in beijing. two marines come and regimens of army, as well. look who gets the newspaper. those marines haven't even gone, and there they are. do you see a pattern? we also noticed, and that's one of the things that the talks have been about today, the impact of world war i on america and the armed forces. we are starting to see marines doing things in places far away from our shores, like in china, because america is becoming an international nati

why does he think that and does he agree with rudy giuliani that a pardon for himself would be unthinkable immediate impeachment? >> sarah: the president doesn't have a need for a pardon. >> reporter: does he rule that out? >> sarah: the president hasn't done anything wrong and wouldn't need one. >> reporter: how does the president respond to the criticism about tariffs against the eu, canada and mexico? how do you reassure these senators? >> sarah: imposing the 232 tariffs protect the steel and aluminum industries. for months the united states had discussions with canada, mexico and eu to find an alternative. it's the only measures appropriate to safeguard the country. we have strong relations with mexico, canada and the eu and will continue. those will continue even though the tariffs are there. >> reporter: what was the contents of kim jong un's let tore the president that he received last week and what did the president take away from that? is he more encouraged based on receiving that letter? >> sarah: i'm not going to get into the specifics of the letter. the president said they were

franchesca, he curses his own message, does he not? >> well, yesterday we saw something similar where reporter repeatedly asked sarah sanders about the president's tweets about whether the special counsel was unconstitutional or not for that to have been put in place. so we have seen this several times. but to that point today, it's not necessarily true that if reporters had been asking about eagles not coming to the white house that the questions that would have been asked were things that the white house would have liked better. we heard about scott pruitt, the epa administrator and fresh allegations that he made have abused his power in office and taxpayer dollars. >> neil: so is it your sense that this football thing with the eagles and whatever has created a furor and a distraction that the president would like? whatever the merits of his argument and the people standing for the national anthem or whatever. he's a wk ahead of crucial talks with the north koreans. he does have a compelling argument to make about the economy, the ma

rarely does that happen.ting a murder defendant. and one of the criminal associates of that murder defendant we learned was a hit man who was following me. albeit fleetingly, but that was a bit too exciting for even this career prosecutor. so, i was instantly recused from the entire office. my entire office from the district attorney's office for district of columbia was recused from the case. and we had to bring a prosecutor over from the eastern district of virginia just to handle the prosecution because now i've become a witness. i actually had to testify in the trial against the hit man. and i couldn't possibly serve as both witness and investigators and prosecutor on the case. it's an obvious conflict. >> okay. thanks for weighing in on that. i'm sorry, that must have been pretty frightening for that fleeting period of time. >> not my favorite case. >> let's get to former attorney general eric holder who says it potentially could be involved in the russia investigation. if the president offers pardons to

but he probably does. he has no intention of pardoning himself. but, he probably does. doesn't say he can't. that's another really interesting constitutional argument. can the president pardon snims himself? >> you think it's an open question? >> it would be an open question. i think it would probably get answered by, gosh, that's what the constitution says. if you want to change it, change it. but yeah. >> a lot of focus on the the president's -- >> i think the political ramifications of that would be tough. pardoning other people is one thing. pardoning yourself is another. other presidents have pardoned people in circumstances like this both in their administration and sometimes the next president of a different party will come along and pardon. >> a lot of focus on the president's pardon power this week. he pardoned dinesh d'souza. roger stone says he's send message to people caught up in the mueller investigation. >> he's not. i think the president feels guilty some of these were delayed. maybe too much concern with injustice or the white house. these are so differ
