as you heard hogan gidley next hour no democrats were invited.nders pointed this out at the briefing yesterday. why would they be invited? they didn't ask any questions about it. >> first of all, why would they be invited? they don't care about the facts. the democrats only care about a partisan political witch hunt that they're trying to ride to the november mid-terms. that's all this is about to them. the politics of it. has nothing to do with facts and evidence. it has everything to do with the process, the politics of it. >> sandra: clearly we've been hearing democrats, some of them upset they weren't invited. one was chuck schumer. and he had this to say. listen to this and i'll get your reaction. >> it would be inappropriate for the white house to inquire of any ongoing investigation and put pressure to direct its outcome. it is unprecedented, outrageous and it has overtones of things that would be done in a banana republic where the dictator just pushes what he wants done. >> god, these guys. it never stops. look, congressional oversight o

here with me is hogan yo who.ogan, you are thoughts only one-year anniversary of the mueller investigation? >> we are about to get into the second year of this investigation. there is no collusion, no corruption, no evidence of any sort. and we are still talking about this nonstop on cable networks across this country. it's incredible. you mentioned it in the open. we have given over millions of pieces of paper. we spent countless hours cooperatincooperating with mr. r giving them time, information, and we have nothing to show for it other than the fact the american people have been sent down this road of nothing. there is nothing there, there is no corruption, there is no collusion. we are still dealing with this. you have seen the reports. almost 100% of the news coming of this president is negative. he's accomplishing things in record-setting time. i'm ready to get this over with, and most of of the american people are, too. judge jeanine: the president doesn't have any intention of firing mueller, does he? >>

hogan. mayor hogan passed away on the 13th of may. throughout his nearly eight-year tenure as mayor of my hometown, steve hogan oversaw a remarkable and exciting renaissance of the city. aurora has become colorado's third largest city and a driving force behind innovation, development, and economic opportunity. mr. coffman: aurora has also become an even greater place to live, work, and raise a family. i met steve hogan 35 years ago when i returned home to aurora after having served in the marine corps. i have had the distinct pleasure to call him a friend ever sense. mayor hogan's career in public service has taken him from serving in the colorado house of representatives in the 16970's to serving six terms as an aurora city councilmember and finally two terms as the mayor of the city, a city i know he loved so dearly. mayor hogan exemplified the spirit of that -- of public service and my hometown of aurora will not be the wonderful place it is today without his vision and his leadership. we all are better off because of his decades

i want to ask you about that, hogan. there's a report that the president's team was told in martha special counsel robert mueller was thinking about subpoenaing the president. what is the response there at the white house? >> look, there's a lot of rumor out there that don't add up. we've been cooperative and transparent with the special investigation. the president has been clear this is a witch hunt. there's zero evidence of any collusion. that's where this started. now they're trying to move to obstruction and the president has been clear there, too. there's no obstruction to speak of. out of respect for the process, i can't comment. i have to turn you over to the president's personal attorneys. >> jon: they're still talking about doing a presidential interview. is that fair to say? >> that's what i understand. i was in the room when he was asked, the president himself was asked, would he do the interview. he said he would. this is the not reported part of that, by the way. he said he would defer to his attorneys. he

howie: we are joibd by hogan gidley, the communications secretary at the white house. rudy giuliani has been purchase for a bit. the white house is willing to cite the "new york times." >> the "new york times" is a failing publication as we all know. but for reasons like this. they can't get out of their own way. the coverage on this president has been completely negative. we are entering into the second year in this investigation. countless hours from our own folks in the administration for conversations with the investigation. we have no collusion, no corruption. no obstruction. none of those things exist, yet it still lead a lot of newscasts. howie: the president called the mueller probe illegal and disgusting. do you believe the media in general are over fixated on these investigation? >> absolutely. we had our secretary of state go to a foreign country and take three people, our citizens who are being detained, bring them back to this country. we got out of an iran deal that we now know didn't prevent iran from getting a nuclear weapon. they weren't covered the wa

coming up later, white house deputy press secretary hogan gidley is here, as well as former reagan whitens. you don't want to miss any of those fine folks. now to the top story this hour, harvey wine set t weinstein seto surrender. he is expected to be charged with sexual assault. monday felconnell mcshane has te latest. >> reporter: this is a big moment, as part of the me too movement of this country. dozens of women have come forward with different forms of allegations of sexual misconduct. today when mr. weinstein turns himself in, as he's expected to do at any moment, he will face sex crimes related charges. the charges have not yet been made public by the manhattan district attorney's office. our expectation is some of the charges will be related to allegations brought forward in a new yorker article by lucia evans who alleged in 2004 mr. weinstein forced her to perform oral sex on him at a meeting at the miramax building here in manhattan in what she thought was going to be a business meeting there. are other charges that may be veiled against mr. weinstein later today as well. fir

what's the deal with these leaks, hogan? in press and communications for 25 years. leaks are always damaging because they are selfish to the person doing it. they don't help you further the administration's agenda. we have done so many incredible things. look back to the week that was. this president actually went forth and got three detainees from north korea released back to the united states. they are on our soil. they are our citizens and now they're healthy, feeling good, back in america. also he got out of the iran deal that made the world less safe. it paved the pathway for iran to achieve nuclear weapons. instead most of that was derailed because of someone's selfish action leaking about a meeting -- private meeting and private conversation. that is unacceptable. >> bill: that person is on your staff working for the president. >> they are absolutely. look, there are some things we're looking at to do internally here. general kelly put a clamp down on a lot of leaks early on when he got here. it appears as though some

so i think we have the sound you're referring to from hogan gidly, let's take a look at it.y, so we don't have that sound. >> i'm not sure we have that. >> reporter: so we expect the president to speak momentarily and when he does we expect his comments to focus more on leadership than politics given that the graduates who are assembled behind me here are set to join the ranks of the navy and the marine corps. i can tell you what the president's done speaking he's going to shakt hand of some of those 1100 or so graduates who are set to join the ranks of the u.s. military today, hallie. >> jeff, thank you very much. i want to bring in now john mclaughlin, former acting cia director as well as victor chod, director ofation studies at georgetown university and former director of affairs jill cove van of the ap, charlie savage of the "new york times" here with me as well. thank you all for being here on what has turned into another very busy news morning. victor rer let victor, lindsay graham was out this morning talking about what he thinks might happen. his tone was really int

joining me now to talk about this and much more is white house deputy press secretary hogan quidly. let me read you this quote from rosenstein and asked about the articles of impeachment drafted against him by members of house and he said, quote, i can tell you there have been people making threats privately and publicly against me more quite sometime and i think they should understand by now the department of justice is not going to be extorted. how do you interpret that remark? do you think he's talking about president trump who has very vocally criticized him? >> well obviously you'll have to ask mr. rosenstein about that. that has nothing to do with us. and obviously you'll have to ask congress about their willingness to draft these articles of impeachment. but that has nothing to do with us here at the white house. we're moving along and cooperating in every way possible. >> the president tweeted no questions on collusion. in fact, if you look at the new york times article with all of the questions that mueller wants to ask the president, one of them is what knowledge did you h

today, hogan gid lee that works with sarah sanders maintained the same approach that it is more about and not his to say i'm sorry. >> do you think that was kind? >> i wasn't in the meeting, i didn't hear the comment. >> but you heard the comment now, pardon me. was it kind? >> i don't know if the comment was made or not. i can't confirm it. i wasn't in the meeting. >> you're denying it was said? >> i wasn't in the meeting. >> she called megyn mccain to apologize. sounds like she said it. was it kind? >> i heard that as well. those comments whether made or not made, there were reports in there obviously too about the internal workings of the meeting that shouldn't be made public. >> why not just come out and apologize, if it has been reported this was said, that she called meghan mccain and asked for apology, you mentioned leaks, that's a problem for a year now. why not come out, make a statement saying we apologize about this horrific joke? simple as that. >> again, i wasn't in the meeting. i don't know if it was said orntd. all i can say is we don't comment on private meetings in th

joining us now is diana moa from jpmorgan asset management and art hogan from b. riley fbr.o have you both on the show diana, how are stocks capable of continuing to rise in the face of rising rates? >> i think stocks now are first reacting to the strong earning season we have come from in the u.s. investors are seeing that as signs that the growth momentum in the u.s. remains anchored you expect to see fiscal policy providing a boost to growth as the year progresses. equity earnings look strong. so it makes sense that you have risk assets such as equities doing well at a time where rates are pricing in this strong growth outlook >> there are some concerns on the inflation side cpi came in soft this week plus some foreign policy uncertainty after the united states pulls out of this iran nuclear deal >> i think we're much more concerned about policy than interest rates we've seen a rise in the ten-year this trip to 3% is gradual inflation has moderated. that february report or the january jobs number was startling. we had a startling move in the ten year now things have calme

he got mixed up involving a tape of hulk hogan bank rolled by trump donor peter thiel to bankrupt a websitet thiel opposed. >> according to detectives, spice boy ten contacts a sex broker named keith davidson to engage in the extortion of hulk hogan. >> that's a lot. so whatever davidson did or didn't do, michael cohen still apparently believed it was worth trying to get cooperation from him and get in touch after the feds raided cohen's office. and there are allegations davidson did some cooperation with cohen to help trump. but the latest reports are that davidson, again, stormy's former lawyer, is cooperating now with the federal probe of cohen. so if you remember one thing from all this and you're keeping count, davidson allegedly went from helping stormy daniels to helping michael cohen, to helping the feds investigate michael cohen. which would mean he's doubling down on switching sides. turning now to our legal expert nick ackerman. would it be okay for a lawyer to decide to work with the opposing counsel against his client? >> of course not. totally unethical. >> is that something t

hogan clearly, interviewed him. he had the best of intentions. >> of course. >> but this thing has just gone on and on and the billion dollar verdict. so samsung and apple are still fighting. >> we've been talking about that for years. >> a long time. >> thank you. as part of affordable housing week, some santa collar ra supervisor candidates are talking about homelessness. if you want to listen, head over to hoover middle school at 6:30 tonight. >>> walnut creek today in the east bay work begins on a new way to help the homeless. organizers say it is first of its kind program, st. paul's commons combines affordable housing with other social services and resources. it's going up next to st. paul's episcopal church on trinity. >>> are you counting down to the royal we hdding day? the big day is almost here. an overnight announcement from the palace. >> the bride and groom officially name brides maids and page boys, kate's kids are both involved here, princess charlotte one of the six brides maids all children. prince

larry hogan toured the city this afternoon and declared a state of emergency. shortly after it began. >> is truly devastating, i would say it is as bad or worse than the storm two years ago, they say this is a once every 1000 year flood, and we've had two of them in two years. >> the national weather service warned that another run the flooding could be on the way over the next few days. >>> investigating a late evening stabbing in dolores park, officers were called at about 7:30 pm, with reports of a fight, one man was stabbed with a sharp object, taken to the hospital, but expected to be okay, several people have been detained, but no arrests have been made.>>> we are hearing the distress call made after a plane went down in petaluma, it happened around 4:30 pm near the petaluma municipal airport and east washington street. >> we have a plane down at the luma, we need emergency services as soon as possible! >> the single-engine plane into the been pieces scattered all over the road, witnesses heard a loud boom when it crashed. >> her to take off, as soon as i

john hogan: we are all part of this.rge mische: while people throughout the world, and especially in vietnam, now are suffering from napalm, these files are also napalmed to show that the... [inaudible] daniel berrigan: amen. tom melville: napalm, which was made from information and from a formula in the united states special forces handbook, published by the school of special warfare of the united states. david darst: we all had a hand in making the napalm that was used here today. dean pappas: napalm is a very old d weapon. it goes back to the byzantines, but it really came to public attention during the war in vietnam. i mean, pictures of napalmed people. so that was a kind of quintessential symbol of the war. we were burning babies, literally, in vietnam. so that's why we wanted to come up with something symbolic, and also something that would really destroy the files. tom melville: our church has failed to act officially, and we feel that, as individuals, we're going to have to speak out in the name of catholicism a

if someone is a spokesperson for the president and they're the subject i've story as hogan was in thisi'm not going to give him anonymity. obviously, usingen named sources is an occupational hazard in our job. sometimes you need to. i do think in this case it's kind of special because one, you have trump, whenever we use anonymous sources, saying they don't exist, they're just making them up. on the other hand, you have his spokespeople immediately asking for anonymity. which one is it. i'm not very -- i was not very accommodating in general to that and i don't think -- this was not the kind of piece where i wanted to do that. >> you're a thoughtful guy. how do you get in the heads of these people. they must be knowing they're trading away their raupgs reputations for a job. that's a hell of a price to pay for government checks. >> they all know. first of all, one term i shy away from and a lot of us tend to use, what a thankless job, what a happless job. this is not indentured servitude. they're there of their own volition. >> why do they do it. >> they justify it for their own reason

so there you have hogan gidley's explanation.udy giuliani told politico that they wanted information from the briefing to help inform the president's legal defense. so which is it? >> look. i think depending on which side of the aisle you're on you might answer that question differently. the democrats see this as a way to just get information about the russia investigation. i mean this was a briefing about an informant who was used to advance the russia investigation. here, even if it is just at the outset, you have a white house lawyer and the president's chief of staff, showing up to make some remarks. i'd also note they were seen sort of leaving the justice department briefing at the very end of it. so a few seconds might understate what they did. but then the white house might say, well, look, we were just trying to make sure that both sides here could get along. we have an interest in making sure the justice department is transparent. the justice department, regardless of this russia investigation, is still part of the execu

let's ask those questions to a special assistant president and deputy press secretary hogan gidley. live for reaction. qaddafi with us. did you -- good to have you with us. did you expect the white house was going to have to answer these questions? >> we had no idea the topics of the show. >> shannon: he is saying that president did reimburse in some way michael cohen for the payment he said he didn't know anything about. >> all i can say, as you know, this is ongoing litigation. i have to refer anything to this matter to the president's outside counsel. >> shannon: has depressed team ever talked about the back of the president may no more than you have been told? or that's been discussed publicly? >> we have address this many times. what i can tell you is its ongoing legislation. we have nothing to say about it. the president has outside counsel and that's what i would have to refer you to. >> shannon: he has talked to the press and said he didn't know anything. this is something cohen handled on his own. cohen used careful language. he said neither the trump campaign where the tru

the intake manifold is custom—made by hogans and obviously all of the gears and materials that we have may be a different kind of horsepower, but there's something timeless about the prerace rituals. gladiators coming out to test their nerves and pit their vehicles, spluttering like boxes of firecrackers, against each other. what the hell?! 0h... it's like a crazy box of fireworks, storming up the hill, where you feel like the driver doesn't care if the whole car blows up, as long as they get to the top. now it's mohamed's big moment. the car didn't make the distance and engine problems mean it's now a write—off and not able to do its second trial. but mohamed didn't seem too downhearted. i'm super excited. when you launch, seriously, under that dune, you just see, like, the end of it and you aim for it and that's it. you forget about your fears, those butterflies in your stomach, nothing, seriously. fantastic. well done. well done for doing it. take care. a glorious fireworks display to match the fizzing and popping of the suped up cars. 20 years ago this extravaganza would have been

hogan gidley.st things first. is the summit still off? >> look, it is still off at this time. who knows what can happen. just because we aren't there now doesn't mean we can't be there later today or later tomorrow. the president has been very clear he wants the denuclearization in north korea. he wants it verifiable and irreversible. several stipulations that were well documented by the press. things that north korea outlined to us. things things they would do. the president said there is no point in going over there if they won't keep the promises they made. he stepped back and said -- he was clear from the beginning. if you guys want to talk i'm happy to have the conversation. if you don't, then we won't. that's where we are today. >> sandra: the president as he was departing the white house going to annapolis said we're talking to them now when asked about north korea. what did he mean by that? is there a direct line of communication with north korea and the president now? >> there is always co

just say we've never seen put in like that before like hunting practice in hockey swimming or like hogan is dogge why do you think your country and the western audience in general need it to see this side of him. because we have stereotypes you know we mentioned this k.g.b. thing beforehand and so is this an incarnation of the evil and the longer p r stresses facts like that the more. the more they become so to speak real so we feel we fictionalize reality to a certain extent by writ by repetition and i thought ok this guy is a human being as you and me is a put it says he was at the right time at the right place and he tries to develop something for his country ok and going away from this kind of. trenches ideological trenches my interest was how does he argue how does he how if and what are his interests because it's all about interests of a country a president and normally represents and so that was much more important and to build up. a. picture of an enemy which is useless because it's a rip titian to the world this different but that. you are going to take a break right now and whe

out of the accord artists i think shevardnadze as discuss the latest developments with going to the hogan former vice president of the european commission. because not except that the americans dictate the terms of the business the american policy of taking hostage other nations and companies has to be it has to be partnership it is obvious. but the ship between the united states the european union is entering a new new age it's it's not like it was in the past. and more or less the americans or to your peons shared the same values. it is to europeans accepted that americans have to do the ship and the americans. enough to provide security i think that's finished. i. later on monday the italian president plans to meet the leaders of the left leaning five star movement the right wing northern league party to discuss the formation of a new coalition government while the poll finds most italians back the largely anti e.u. program agreed on by the parties. masses do something about immigration because it's a mess and i like the color plan of course who want lower taxes especially for business

on twitter governor larry hogan offered prayers to the brave officer's family. >> we must end the attackspolice, and we must end them right now. >> reporter: just last week, president trump attended an event honoring fallen police officers. so far this year, according to the officer down memorial page, 56 law enforcement officers have been killed in the line of duty. and that includes the officer who died today. the number of officers killed in the line of duty actually decreased by 21% between 2016 and 2017. but that is, of course, of little comfort for the family of this fallen officer. jeff? >> glor: jeff pegues, thank you. the man accused of smashing his s.u.v. into a north carolina restaurant as his family ate inside is suffering from severe mental illness according to his pastor. 62-year-old roger self made his first court appearance today. he's charged with two counts of first-degree murder yesterday in the death of his daughter, a sheriff's deputy, and his daughter-in-law. other family members were also injured. there is a new health threat tonight on hawaii's big island. flowing
