we have the lowest unemployment rate in seventeen years now yes on news that might not please donald trump fort announced that it wants to start building electric cars in mexico not detroit. and that's quite a reversal because just in generally pretty much even before. really started to take over the white house you celebrated that ford is not moving electric car plant to make the go but rather invest in detroit michigan so now we see the reversal of ford announced that they're going to build this electric plant in mexico but not all is lost for detroit and the u.s. car industry because ford said they're going to invest them heavily in detroit in self driving cars so it's a. win and lose but we certainly will hear something about this decision from ford from the government and from president. pretty soon in spite of bringing us both sides of the story thank you very much and have a good weekend europe's competition commission could have bad news for bear the chemicals giant wants to take over its american wyvil monsanto for a massive sixty six billion dollars it would be the greatest takeover o

forte, being subtle is not. there's been tension between donald trump and attorney general sessions almost since the beginning.hot been happy about that recusal. he hasn't been super quiet about that. but i think it's really interesting that he values loyalty so much that he even admires it in the other party, and goes on to compliment former attorney general holder, and he says that he really appreciates that loyalty. we do know that loyalty is the number one thing with president trump. if it you're unloyal to him, you may be on the chopping block. >> he loves loyalty and numbers as well telling he has 158 million people from various social media platforms. you don't love the numb -- i think the most common word in the transcript is inaudible. i lost count at 18. >> apparently it was noisy. >> perhaps that's the reason. my highlighter ran out. but before we go i want to ask you, it's our last show of 2017 and you have a knew piece coming out. not everything in 2017 was an utter dumpster fire. tell us what you mean by that. >> so 2017, like 2016, was kind of a rough year but there were some heart warming momen

trump mark lotter. and noelle nick fort. every time i listen to the president speak and get those audiences fired up i say to myself, there is no one better than the president, than donald, with an audience. we were -- the cheering and the sense of americanism is -- infectious. matt, what do you think? >> it's electric. and i think, you know, donald trump is doing something very important that presidents sometimes fail to do. he's getting out of the bubble. he's piercing the bubble and talking to real americas. he's feeding off the crowd. it's electric. i think it really gives him energy and it's important for a leader to go around the country and tell them what he wants to do and he didn't leave anything on the table, judge. >> it's clear, mark, that matt is correct. he hit every note whether it was the sanctuary cities, the second amendment, religious freedom, buy american. what's your take from this speech? >> two things, one, he he is doing everything he said he would do. when you see the fake news about how he doesn't like being in the white house, this man loves being president and you saw it tonight. >> and noelle, what do you take away from tonight? >> you know

donald trump. no one disputes that those guilty pleas have a solid legal and factual basis. two other people have also been indicted, paul manafort and mr. gates. as you know, mr. mana fort was the campaign manager -- manafort was the campaign manager for donald trump for some time. ose two indictments have a solid and legal basis. so nothing that robert mueller has done can now be attacked and that's why they're doing a smear campaign on his team because they are getting desperate. and when i say they, i am talking about the white house as well as some of my colleagues in the house on the republican side. i sat through a judiciary committee hearing that i thought was disgraceful with members on the other side of the aisle trying to smear not only f.b.i. director christopher wray but also rod rosenstein and director mueller. these are good people. they have integrity, and if you think that the women's march was large, wait until you see what happens if the president actually tries to take these unconstitutional and what would really amount to criminal actions, because he would be obstructing justice. so at the end of the day it's very important for the american people to

experts the most information although paul man of fort may well be a close second in terms of what he knew about what other people within donald trump circle were doing about trying to extend influence and build ties with russia as well as be involved in other matters of foreign policy before they actually came into office and so the real test for robert muller and the other members of the special counsel team will be to get as much detail much information that can be corroborated by multiple sources and this some say could actually reach as far as into the oval office of course this is an investigation that has been ongoing for a number of months and so i think it's going to be some time before we actually find out just exactly how big this all of this activity actually was up until now adrian what we have had is a number of leaks about what allegedly has been happening but nothing confirmed until it goes before a federal judge we'll have more on the investigation is donald trump and his ties to russia a little later in the news for the moment roslyn jordan washington many thanks. the united nations has launched a record appeal for
