heroin for example which is made used to make oxy cotton and also fenton which is a synthetic opioid. on average opioids kill about 130 americans a day now that is a pretty large number massive number but i will say that issues of is not going to they are multifaceted multilayered you know you have to look at the pharmaceutical industry you have to look at small town economic policies you also have to look at you know the u.s. is war on drugs and that raises the question you know what is really causing this this issue so i will say that the trade war does play a role with the opioid crisis but maybe not to the extent that. it is not you this this crisis as we've known for decades why is from now suddenly blaming china well you previously mentioned a ongoing trade conflict but it's also been referred to as a trade war both the united states and china have used the state of their current relationship to kind of push back on another hit back you know both politically and economically and i will say that this opioid crisis points to their current relationship being used as a fall guy to k

are checking they have enough medicine available during the shift for people who've overdosed on fenton ill the synthetic drug is 50 times stronger than heroin and kills thousands of americans every year. u.s. authorities have long accused of being the main source of the drug but the narcotics control commission in beijing says it's investigated chemical industrial parks and close down internet sites selling fenton online and concluded. the. president trump said in his tweet. from china is completely groundless and untrue. 2 weeks ago president tweeted that he's ordering logistics companies to search for and refuse all deliveries of fentanyl from china and elsewhere he also wrote the chinese president. promised this influx would stop and that it didn't what's clear is that the drug comes in containers and through the mail law enforcement officials from virginia took down a major drug ring last week they found 30 kilograms of fentanyl one official involved in the investigation said that most comes directly from china. chinese officials say they're doing everything they can to keep their

with us is the judicial watch president tom fenton. the work of judicial watch has been critical in this. you have gotten more information. they had a strategy, rod was going to say he was just joking? to deflect from the truth that they were not talking about? >> that's right. this is the first official confirmation that allegations took place. there was testimony about it. you have rod rosenstein and his team trying to craft a response, non-denial on the allegations. rosenstein said we are hopeful we are successful in prepresenting people from talking about. it they changed the statement from a denial.eople from talkin. it they changed the statement from a denial. to a less categorical denial. he was sarcastically was talking about wearing a wire with the president of the united states. -- those discussions involve 3 topics. wearing a wire and is invoking the 25th meant and invoking the special. all part of the same scheme. >> sean: all breaking today. federal court unsealed an important filing from michael flynn's legal team. his la

the latest fox news contributor sarah carter and the president of judicial watch, tom fenton. is there any truth to that rumor? i haven't heard that. i think i'm close to the story. >> i haven't heard that either. no one is talking at the department of justice about it, sean, not at all. they're not talking whether there's a grand jury, whether there's been a decision by that grand jury. i have talked to a number of sources and they are very tight-lipped on this. what i am hearing is michael brownwitch, the attorney for mccabe may be leaking this information himself in an effort to try to get the media to push a different narrative on mccabe. now, i don't know if that is true either. all i'm hearing is from sources that this is a possibility so that's really interesting here. mccabe made a final-ditch effort. jesse liu, the u.s. attorney, wasn't buying it. the deputy assistant attorney general was not buying it. they rejected his appeal. so that's where it's at right now. >> tom fenton, you've been very adamant like i have been, this, to me, is a slam dunk case. this is not a

this is a blockbuster discovery, and with us now with more is judicial watch president tom fenton. a time, i can't say this enough: the work of judicial watch has been critical in this. you have gotten more information. they actually had a strategy, as i read these documents, oh, rod was going to say he was just joking when he said that? what, do deflect from what the truth was that they were talking about? >> exactly right. this is the first official confirmation on mike based on government documents, that allegations took place where there was testimony about it. here you have rod rosenstein steam trying to craft a response, a nondenial denial to the allegations. when you look at the materials, you see rosenstein saying we are hopeful, we are successful in preventing people from talking about it. they changed the statement from a categorical denial. rod rosenstein's direct statement from a categorical denial about discussions of the 25th amendment did not take place, to a less categorical denial. so you have this confirmation that aa, they were talking about the 25th amendment. b

louis, when then i talked to said they would mix their heroin in the fenton all using the mr.der, just the same thing you a grind of coffee beans but the problem is, you cannot do it precisely and so one does might be weak but another dose might be so strong as to kill someone and that is exactly why so many people are dying from fentanyl from street fentanyl. >> one of the comments you are quoting people because it does seem counterintuitive if you think of this being a product that is literally killing the purchasers of the product it doesn't sound like a very good business model, but you quoted people saying they find out about a death and then they will want to get that batch because it stronger, so help us understand that, is that the level of addiction that will cause someone to take that step or did you get more behind talking to the users in the high that they are chasing. >> well, for many long time heroin users, they don't even get high anymore from heroin. all it does is get wouldn't rid of their withdrawal symptoms and get some back to baseline. with fentanyl they

. >> tom fenton. >> well, you know what occurs to me is that james comey and hillary clinton committed some of the same crimes.no prosecuti. i think the big news out of the report is the more that you look at it in terms of its impact and explaining the coup against president trump, james comey was a spy against president-elect trump.and then president trump. he went over there, and just before he was elected with hisd, to illicit witness reaction or subject reaction and recorded quickly for his colleagues at the fbi. the obama appointees.it helps e, after he was fired, why rosenstein and mccain were talking about going after the president.about wearing a wire. he was no longer there to gather intel on the president. as jason pointed out, there's plenty of information now toalrn prosecutions. we don't need an ig report. we already have the outlines of the crimeout there. >> jason: really quick, they already engaged in a systemic effort to oppose the president, they use the media for their own personal political views and beliefs and they put that out there to justify what they did. tha

let me turn to judicial watch, tom fenton, you have now sued for documents of deleted emails of bruce or and nellie ohr, and what can you tell us about what you suspect is in there, tom fitton? >> nellie ohr writes a bruise or an email that we uncovered, saying i deleted. there were emails about russia, and we want to know what's going on there. was there an obstruction issue, related to the deletion of emails by nellie ohr, who of course worked for fusion gps? and hillary clinton, and essentially had a virtual desk at the justice department. given the fact that she was laundering and had her hands all over in their russia investigation come over at the justice department and the fbi. and we have this evidence in plain sight of someone deleting information related, potentially, to russia. we are not seeing any indication anyone else is interested in this, so of course, we asked for the documents. per usual, we are getting the hand to the face from the deep state, so we have to sue again. it's frustrating that, we are the ones doing it, and b, we are fighting trump's own administration

let's speak to her friend siobhan fenton, a journalist and author on the irish peace process, who's inthey might be trying to entice police into an area and having the social disturbances or riots to try and attack and potentially kill police officers as well. we were speaking to a police officer earlier here on breakfast and he said they had been lucky because police officers are being specifically targeted. do you think there has been a change in tactics here? yes, there certainly seems to be an increasing amount of attacks and they are focusing on attacking police officers specifically. just at the weekend there was another bomb, which fortunately did not explode and that was in the ship an area not too far from derry. explode and that was in the ship an area not too farfrom derry. that seems to be a deliberate attempt to attacked police officers, it was found at the side of the road and was designed to be catapulted into a police station. i suppose for many within the new ira they would argue that police officers are a symbol of british rule in northern ireland so they see them as

of the staffordshire pottery industry is made up of six towns: tunstall, burslem, hanley, stoke, fenton way we work. that is something that should be embraced. as we sit here under the wonderful icons that decorate us, i do wonder sometimes, don‘t we realise there is something about the juice and the actual soil of this area which has allowed us to be one of the most creative places on earth. we are a place where we have taken the ground itself and made it into something which you can see all around you. not many places on this planet can argue that. i am shocked by this notion of the £10 bus return fare in a city that is not huge. the transport network has separated the towns, in effect. the towns have not worked together because there is no connectivity. and again, working with young people, the public transport is very poor in the city, so with work and leisure and creative activities, people really struggle to get around and get to places. one of the real problems, if you go from the southernmost town to the northernmost town, if you were to try to make that journey by public transp
