right now it's clear the president will do everything he can. >> oh, yeah. >> he went to the greenbrier today and said support law enforcement. >> and what's stunning politically it's republicans who are attacking the fbi and the democrats who are defending them. a lot of times in our history the liberals saying the fbi is corrupt and the fbi plays games here. but now it's the republicans following the lead of the president. and the president's narrative is about himself and about his own investigation. and he can't attack bob mueller frontally, and he won't. so what he's doing is taking a s circuitous route and attacking everyone around it. >> what happens if this is it released, even though redactions, if it is released without any redactions, and we see the names of the individuals at the top of the fbi who made some of these decisions on the fisa warrant for kaurtcarter pa? >> well, vladimir putin will find that information very helpful and continue to conduct his operations against the united states. let's focus on what this is really all about. it's the equivalent of a search warr

>> we asked him that actually at the tail end of our interview here at the greenbrier in west virginia. he did not answer. he smiled, kind of a tight smile, and didn't really get into whether he has spoken to the president about the memo in and of itself. i will say, though, i will find it hard to believe he will say that last part of that sentence, i believe in the public's right to know, if the president was not planning to release this memo. that's just me reading between the tea leaves. listen, i've covered mike pence for a long time. actually when he was a congressman, he fought for transparency and fought for press rights and things of that nature back when he was in congress. so it's not completely out of personality for the vice president. but he clearly didn't want to talk much about the memo and things of that nature. >> jake, we were talking to kacie hunt about this just a short time ago about the divide about folks, folks where you are, the senate side. is there a sense among the people there, on the senate side, getting rid of rosenstein or certainly trying to get rid of m

rachael, you were at the republican retreat, the greenbrier. how much were the media focused on this memo? rachel: they were obsessed with it. they were supposed to be talking about tax reform, 7 out of 9 questions were about this memo. one of the questions was speaker paul ryan, do you think devin nunes should step aside for the way he handled it. he said no, but tax cuts are working. the transition was hilarious. howie: the pre-game hype was almost at super bowl levels. what jumped out at me, christopher steele it was said in the memo, lied about his contacts. and it was said he was desperate that donald trump not get elected. but it's not that the press built up steele as a man of great credibility. mollie: they had built steele up as a man of credibility. but this memo was the first time we had gotten information that wasn't based on anonymous sources. we actually got hard data. for a year we have been subjected to anonymous leaks and snippets of information. we learned this guy misused his credibility to secure a wiretap. many of the stori

let's bring in kevin cirilli, who is down at the greenbrier, reporting from just outside. we just heard the state of the union redux, kevin, but let's on one thing focus -- immigration. he gave a lot of time, and the most detail really on the question of immigration -- is four pillars, as they are called. he is digging in his heels. am i reading that wrong? no.n: president trump's largest message from this address to the republicans at the republican retreat is very clearly hold your ground on immigration. particularly on the issue of the dreamers, he doubled down on that line from his state of the this week,ss early where he said "americans are o," and then he also went on to say "don't fall for ," addressing republicans in terms of the language being framed as they gear up for this march 5 deadline. shery: president trump also talked about reaching across the aisle, but at the same time took some shots of the democrats. what about bipartisanship? kevin: what about bipartisanship? president trump in the speech as well taking on house minority leader nancy pelosi, saying w

we can get beyond this memo for tomorrow, will be anything -- will anything else be discussed at greenbriervin: a host of topics being discussed, including increased national defense spending and also infrastructure. this gets interesting, because how much money the ministrations willing to allocate for infrastructure, it was upwards .f $1.5 trillion and how they're are going to pay for that, could divide the public. there is a host of things they are talking about. later this afternoon, we will -- you cann check catch my interview, which would another controversial item would be increasing the so-called gas tax, so there is a lot of back and forth right now. is reserved and hesitant to say he wants more government spending. $200 billion, with regards to infrastructure. and let's take a break from a second ande for they have to have a partial government funding bill by february 8. they: kevin cirilli from congressional retreat in west virginia. we have heard from speaker paul ryan and from several other members, but the president himself has arrived and will speak now. let's listen. ♪ trump

walked in, questioned shouted out about the memo as he did when he left this morning for the greenbrier. he didn't answer any questions. though the questions were shouted at him. where are we with be memo? my understanding is since this morning that the target date to release the memo is tomorrow morning or at least that's when the white house will transmit the president's approval or lack of objection to the house permanent select committee on intelligence. our understanding the president may to so far as to declassified this memo, which means that it could come out almost immediately. if he merely does not object to it, that trigger as process at the house intelligence committee which then may take a few more hours, maybe a day before that memo would become public. you mentioned people that were against this memo, a litany of them. at the top, shep, adam chef from the intelligence committee one of them. one of the people in favor is paul ryan. let's play you sound with schiff and ryan. >> i think the fbi is right. this memo is really a spin on a -- not just a set of particular documen

handful of republican lawmakers that took shuttle buses from their meeting, party meeting at the greenbrier across the street to the conference room where reporters were camped out wanted to talk about things like their breakfast with the defense secretary or infrastructure or immigration. but a very large percentage of questions from reporters wound up being about the news of the day, which was this nunes memo that some of the lawmakers from the house had seen and none of the senators who were here had seen. a big party of these retreats is about getting lawmakers on message regarding big ticket items on the horizon. the elected officials kept trying to get to their left field talking points with limited success. at one point during a press conference with paul ryan and mitch mcconnell where almost all the questions were about this memo, a reporter at the end as this thing was wrapping up stood up and shouted out, some of us have questions that are not about the memo! ryan and mcconnell exited the stage left anyway. >> shepard: how big a factor are the upcoming mid-terms in the decisions t

. >> that's house speaker paul ryan, speaking earlier this week at the greenbrier. republican lawmakers were having a retreat. how does that resonate today, in light of what we saw in this memo, in light of all the fanfare, the release of the memo, how much does that resonate today? >> that's exactly the opposite. the president of the united states, we were saying earlier in this show, the president of the united states is saying this memo does, in fact, go to the mueller investigation. it says it undercuts, in fact, the whole premise of it. that's his argument, it vindicates him. the memo itself doesn't get to the main questions that have investigation. it doesn't get to the question of whether or not the president's campaign conspired with russia. this investigation was already going on before this fisa court application. presumably would have gone on, even if there hadn't been this fisa application and objectithe question of obstruction of justice has nothing to do with this fisa court application. so what paul ryan and president trump are saying are two differen

. >> you talked to lawmakers at greenbrier there for their retreat. what do they say aut tir fears, if any, that it will hav a lasting effect on the integrity of the intelligence community or the integrity between the intelligence community and the legislative or executive branch? >> i put it to senior aides in the past 24 hours. look, all of them are saying, even folks like chairman of the freedom caucus, mark meadows and jim jordan, when i spoke with them last night, essentially that there are very, very brave men and women serving in our intelligence community, david, who ought to remain receiving of our appreciation. but from their perspective, the political appointees who ought to be held accountable. on the flip side of that, there's no question that these congressional investigations on capitol hill have become politicized. and when a significant portion of the republican party now questioning openly the integrity of the intelligence community, when the final results of rob mueller's investigation are made public, it really is remarkable to see

the rnc meeting earlier spoke to members of congress at a retreat they have been having at the greenbriert in west virginia. congressman jim jordan and steve king of iowa were there and join us tonight. thank you both for coming on. i appreciate it.n congressman jordan, i have to ask you about this memo. where are we on that? i know -- i don't think you are in washington but i can tell you everyone here is expecting it's going to be released any moment. when will it be released? do you know? >> i think tomorrow, tucker. and i always say this. never forget what we are talking about here.. a secret court where the fbi goes to get a secret warrant to spy on american citizens. and tomorrow when this memo comes out, the american people, i think, will see very clearly what the fbi told the court to get that secret warrant and what they didn't tell the court. and to me, that is critical, particularly when this all happened in the context ofs a, you know, campaign for i the presidency of the united states. so, that comes out tomorrow. and i think it's important for every single journalist like to

where the gop is having their retreat at greenbrier. if this thing is going to be released the senate intelligence committee should have also had a chance to see it. the democratic counter memo should be released as well. this memo fight is laying their divisions not just inside the republican party, it seems, but also, of course, between the president and the guy he picked to lead the fbi. >> it is one of the craziest scenarios ever. brand new fbi director that's been there a few months who is going to the president saying don't do this. you have rod rosenstein, who was essentially set up as the fall guy in the comey firing, now trying to defend these intelligence collection tools, the fisa tools. it doesn't make any sense. you have divisions inside congress and it's all up to the white house. they want to push this ajaengag. at the same point they want to keep the conspiracy going in the news. we'll end up having a weakened federal law enforcement agency that can't use these tools when they need it. can you imagine being an fbi agent

but the president will be tomorrow with all the republicans in the house and senate at the greenbrierrt in west virginia. devon nunes will also be there. but time is running out in the sense five days to release this. so of course tomorrow is day four. so look for this tomorrow. but also look for potential redactions to this. we have been here all day long the white house could acquiesce to some fbi demands and change some parts of this or black out some parts of the more classified parts. that's why this is taking longer than they thought. but again, any point tomorrow it's still going to exacerbate the fbi white house tensions here. this is pretty extraordinarily. this is the president's own fbi director. he appointed him. and he said he had grave concerns about it. tomorrow we believe the president will release it anyway. erin. >> thank you very much jeff zeleny. out front now white house counsel and columnist phil mudd. phil you've worked at the fbi. you heard jeff zeleny. fbi headed by the president's own director has come out and said these are grave concerns that fundamentally

you traveled out to west virginia to the greenbrier resort there to talk to republican lawmakers on thethe state of the union. a big question heading into the state of the union and that speech after republican retreat was, what is the president's stance or position when it comes to daca and dreamers? did he do anything to refine that, to give his colleagues on capitol hill a better sense of what this white house wants? >> well, he laid out his four-point plan, david, which i think includes a path to citizenship for about 1.8 million people brought to the country illegally as children, which is significant for the white house to put on paper, but the other aspect of his plan are where things are getting problematic as it relates to the deal. border security, some funding for a physical barrier, which i don't think is as contentious as people think it is, ending the diversity visa lottery, which democrats don't like. the big thing is cuts to family sponsorship of siblings, parents, and adult children, which would be a major change to the immigration system for the last half century or so

msnbc's garrett haake who is at the gop retreat at the greenbrier in west virginia. there have been a few people who came out against the release of the memo but republicans seem to be in lock step when it comes to it. >> i think that's true. look, there's a news conference going on behind me right now about the opoid crisis and if it's anything like what we've seen here over the past couple days, most of the questions these members get will be about that memo. it has taken over this conference almost entirely. and when the conference breaks up in a few hours, republicans will leave here still divided about immigration, still divided about how to play for the president's infrastructure plan. about 95% of them, i would say are in line, on the issue of this memo, republicans have lined up behind the president, saying the memo should be released to the public. the real division is between those republicans who see this as sort of a dragon glass-style mystical weapon they can use against the president's enemies and stock the russia investigation. and those like paul ryan

there are stocks that are on sale i recently bought electronic arts and greenbrier. those are two companies i have a half position in this is a great opportunity for me to fill out those positions i may not be doing it today because the price action is clearly to the downside, i don't need to catch a falling knife. but over the next week i'll be filling out those positions. >> my list is, let's go down financials that are getting hurt, rates going up you've got bank of america, jpmorgan, first republican, and then you have prudential industrials, my cheap ones over there, stuff like gm, delta, which i really like. then i go to technology and look at the companies getting sold off, google, oracle. those are the type of companies i want to buy. then i look at uncorrelated, companies that have nothing to do with cyclical growth but they have to do with their own endemic, which is health care. bristol-myers, merck, celgene. those are stocks that have come 5, 10% off their peaks and i want to own them >> stephanie link and i were talking about that stock, i could not beli
