intelligence committee. you've heard over in the house, house republican after house republican, taking, you know, taking aim at the findings that russia was involved in meddling. the senate intelligence committee taking a much more sober look at this. >> a totally different assessment. and if you remember, the house intelligence committee, even went so far as to say that there was no collusion. which is not something that the intelligence community even assessed as part of its work. so, look, i think you've seen work being done by some of the president's allies in the house, in particular, to try to undermine not only the intelligence community assessments, but also mueller investigation, which is really the thing that i think is what they're more concerned about. and of course, president trump just the past few days, tweeted again, his doubts about the intelligence community's assessment. he says, quote, russia continues to say that they had nothing to do with meddling in our election. the president choosing to take the word of the russians over his own intelligence community. >> and it makes you wonder if

that, according to the consensus view of expert who is are democrats, republicans, the house intelligence committee, the senate intelligence committee, intelligence chiefs under obama, president trump's own intelligence views, the consensus view the u.s. was cyber attacked by russia, despite that yesterday the president of the united states sided with the man responsible for the attack on the united states. not with the people of the united states. now, president trump tried to explain this today by saying he misspoke in a key part of the remarks yesterday in which he said this. >> president putin, he just said it's not russia. i will say this. i don't see any reason why it would be. >> i don't see any reason why it would be. president trump now says that was a mistake. >> i would like to clarify just in case it wasn't. in a key sentence in my remarks i said the word would instead of wouldn't. the sentence should have been i don't see any reason why i wouldn't or why it wouldn't be russia. >> president trump wants you to believe even though the problems of his comments in helsinki exceed would vers

along the way but this is interesting because it's different from what republicans on the house intelligence committee found. they criticized the house intelligence community's assessments. but the house intelligence committee are on their own in this assessment except when you consider the president. he is the other person who continues to throw cold water on this idea that russia meddled to help him. in fact, just last week he tweeted "russia continues to say they had nothing to do with meting in our election. so we've seen bipartisan committees in the senate agree with it, we've seen intelligence agencies agree with it, we've seen the president's own intelligence chiefs agree with this assessment that russia meddled to benefit donald trump. >> we're also learning more about embattled fbi agent peter strzok who worked on the investigation and his attorney saying he might ignore the subpoena from the house. >> peter strzok was the former number two counterintelligence guy at the fbi. he's come under a lot of criticism because he exchanged disparaging messages with a former fbi lawyer about donald tru

i must have spoken to five or six members of the house intelligence committee, republican members whoold me that it was trade craft. they looked at the trade craft here from the intelligence community, and they felt there was something fishy in the trade craft, and that's why they were not confident there was evidence that the russians did this to hurt hillary clinton and help donald trump. the senate intelligence committee uses that word "trade craft" all through its report and says hey, we're confident. we're comfortable. this is consistent with all of our findings here. what does that mean? >> trade craft is one of the phrases that is being slung around, and apparently everybody has it. i guess if the plumber comes and fixes your bathtub, he has great bathtub trade craft. it's the ins and outs of your job. there is is analytical trade craft which both the committees were talking about in saying hey, analytically did they come to right conclusion. having worked with the committees before when i was one of the representatives to the oversight committees when i was at cia, i can tell

and so there has been a whole chain of events, starting with the president and the house intelligence committee's statement statements about these carter page surveillances that have gotten us to this point. but really, the information contained in these documents is sensitive, it's classified, it's national security information. s so that other information would have further supported the case that the government was making to the fisa judge. >> glenn, one thing that is not redacted is what you mention in point number two. and that is that republican allegations about the dossier are not supported. in fact, republicans have said that the fbi failed to tell the courts that the steele dossier may be politically biassed and that is not true. the footnote reads, u.s.-based law firm had hired the person to conduct research regarding candidate number one's ties to russia. and the fbi speculates that the identified u.s. person was likely looking for information that could be used to discredit candidate number one's campaign. so, glenn, were republicans who backed the nunes memo being less than truthful

that was a view trumpeted by devin nunes, chairman of the house intelligence committee and it's an easyto make when facts are in short supply. he made it in committee statements and echoed by the president and members of the gop. not here, though. he won't come on the program, even though we invite him on a regular basis. over the weekend we got hard fax. the 412 pages supporting documents for warrants against carter page, and they're not kind to devin nunes's claims. as to his claim that the fbi was biased in seeking to monitor page, the documents give a very good reason. according to the filing, the fbi had evidence that page was, quote, the subject of targeted recruitment by the russian government, and four republican appointed judges agreed. republican-appointed judges. the documents also undermine nunes' claims that the steele dossier was why the government sought the warrants and the political motivations behind the dossier were concealed from from the court. they show the court was informed. in short, even these highly redacted documents have enough in them to discredit much of t

leader, house minority nancy pelosi and congressman adam schiff, ranking member of the house intelligence committee, talk about president trump's summit with president putin. the lawmakers were critical of president trump's interactions with mr. putin, as well as his refusal monday to back the assessment of the intelligence community that russia interfered in the 2016 u.s. election.

with that let's bring in our lead off panel and the pentagon to house intelligence committee. an attorney and former staffer and matt for the new york times and matt, i would like to begin with you. you have been on this story from the very start. having said that, how significant was today in your view? >> i think it was really significant and here is why. i think flash back to january of 2017 when they put forward their report that really said for the first time we think russia did it. this essentially adds all of the details, the why, who, the when. you know, we have been dealing with over the past 18 months the president of the united states saying i believe the report. i believe putin when he says he didn't do the hacking. he says let me tell you, here are the names. here are the dates they started, positions they held, here are the physical addresses. here are the e-mail addresses. here is how they routed their communications. it is really really detailed information. i think it really spells out the government's case in full for why they are so confident that the russia

the house intelligence report says all witnesses were asked if trump was aware of the trump tower meeting and denied it. so michael cohen may well have to cop to lying to the house intelligence committee when he privately testified because, you know, that, it would be a false statement if he didn't disclose this before. so, you know, we got to be cautious. i do have to say, it is a little odd the way we're learning about this. normally, if you wanted to get a deal with robert mueller. you wouldn't go running to the press. you would get a proffer to mueller's office saying, here's what we got. and michael cohen's legal team for whatever reason didn't go that route. >> what other observation? is this not going to extend, all these recent developments, however they pan out, this not going to extend the mueller probe, not into the mid-term but into the 2020 election? >> look, it could, we don't know exactly where robert mueller is. there is a lot of reason to believe he is moving forward. we may see more before labor day, there is an assumption he will not want to do anything during the election season. so, i know, there is an expectation that there could be more coming from mueller. but

if paul ryan could have gotten rid of devin nunes as a head of a house intelligence committee, a committee that wants in my world, you know, the fact that house intel committee is like this is just shocking. you have never seen anything like this. and i think there is going to be political consequences. the legal ones, of course, are harmful to trump. the political consequences are ones that i think paul ryan really, you know, needs to explain it to the american public. why devin nunes lies and then is allowed to be head of what was -- once was a bipartisan committee that looked at intelligence, nonpolitically to defend you and i and everyone else. >> juliet and jim, i have to leave it there. thank you so much. really appreciate both of you for being here. >>> the challenges of working for a president who does what he wants when he wants. >> say that again. did i hear you? >> yeah. yeah. >> okay. >> yeah. ♪ introducing e*trade personalized investments professionally managed portfolios customized to help meet your financial goals. you'll know what you're invested in and how it's performing.

that democrats on the house intelligence committee and the senate intel have wanted to go down for sometime. and have sometimes been blocked in those efforts. we have seen reaction to this story tonight from members of the committees. democrats. one made the point that they attempted to subpoena donald trump jr. phone records. because they want to know whether the blocked phone number which i think we talked about on the show. was the president. don jr. spoke to after the meeting whether it was the president. questions like that. this is a line they wanted to go down and get to go down all those lines. to ask the questions. so this is it's certainly a attracting their attention now. and you can imagine those members will be calling for those same things now. we got to explore this. if this is true that michael cohen is offering this. the other point is this, god knows jack is a more of a lawyer than me. when you listen to rudy giuliani defense tonight, he was all about michael cohen credibility. and made this point he said all we have to do is create a reasonable doubt. right? you get a win

the senate intelligence committee is a far more serious consequential panel looking in the issue of russia's election hack and attack as compared to the house intelligence committee led by devin nunes, even though he had to recuse himself. >> glen, as we heard from charlie at the top of the show, it's extraordinary to see this thing. i want to get your perspective as swb who was a federal prosecutor. what changes now? now that we have more insight into this process, your reaction to this thing being made public? >> well, david, this thing being made public i think in the short term may be good because it does sort of debunk some of what we've heard by way of the critics. but in the long run i don't know that it's a good thing because these sort of methods that the government uses, and i know it's a highly redacted document at this point, appropriately so, but we may actually have to go back and retool the fisa laws to sort of take into account the fact that some of these things may become public now. i can tell you in reviewing the highly redacted 400-plus pages, there are a few takeaways i think we all can see from reading it. one, it seem

difficult line that these republicans, especially on the house side, are trying to walk given the conclusion that was found by the intelligence committeearlier this year. pete king, who is a senior member of the house intelligence committee, told me earlier today similarly, he said i stand by that report, despite what vladimir putin said. you are seeing a lot of republicans having a difficult time squaring that circle and also this shows the president's comments yesterday putting republicans in a box. they want to criticize russia but they don't want to criticize the president. you saw how the speaker handled it. >> thank you for asking the important questions and for jumping on with us. >>> unease over the president's performance at the summit with vladimir putin. we will speak with someone who worked next to the president in the white house next. eeks, until her laptop crashed this morning. you never know what the day's going to bring when you're running a small business, it might even bring a blue screen of death. having it problems? ask a business advisor how to get virus and spyware removal, and 24/7 tech support. office depot now

today in the house intelligence committee we had an open hearing. ranking member shif and i made a motion to bring a translator in to test the republicans on the committee. many made statements or tweets to see if they are sincere about that. they voted that down along party lines. we have to keep testing them to see what they are willing to do to protect our country. >> the house intelligence committee is acrimonious along party lines. if it weren't shocking enough that he has to learn about a second summit from the news media, maybe even more shocking that three days after the first summit, the meeting between presidents putin and trump, he doesn't know really what happened in that meeting. >> that is why it is so important to hear from the translator which i acknowledge is an extraordinary measure. this president has a -- last year when russians were in the oval office he divulged national security secrets. we are learning he negotiated the possibility of turning over for interrogation a former u.s. ambassador. i think the american people at leas

republican congressman chris stewart's serves on the house intelligence committee and a perfect guest to talk with us about. it was wholly inappropriate. if, in fact, rosenstein threatened staffers for all of their materials. is it just inappropriate? he says it crosses the line. is it criminally inappropriate? what line is it crossing? >> i'm not an attorney and i can't answer that question but, one thing i can tell you is he absolutely did do this. he's been inconsistent in his denial. at first he said it, we said that but you misunderstood it. last week he said he didn't say anything of the sort so we have to reconcile those two things. the third thing is it's not just an appropriate but it is outrageous. they forgive the department of justice and the fbi forgets all too often that they were created by congress. they were created at the behest of congress to serve the american people and congress has oversight responsibilities over them. we don't allow the department of justice to have the kind of power that they may have and not ask them questions, including them is congress holdi

that before the house intelligence committee earlier this year said that he did not testify this there that trump had advance knowledge. cohen's claims were not menti mentioned on effort reports. i should note that we reached out to the lawyers for a number of those involved in the story. donald trump jr.'s lawyer, he told cnn that donald trump jr. has been professional and responsible through the the mueller investigation. we are confident of the accuracy and the information that was relied on mr. trump jr. and on his behalf. he declined to comment. you remember this on chris cuo o cuomo's show. he attacked cohen's credibility. >> right, that he's been lying all week and for years. >> jack, if this coalition is truth, was there a crime committee? >> well, if this can be demonstrated or come rated. the narrative that the trump campaign was not willing and eager to get the support of foreign powers including adversary like russia. it would provide a motive for obstruction case if this was proven to be true. i think there is a step back for a moment and put this into context of an invest

a key point about the house intelligence committee and how ridiculous they look, what happened last weekspying. democrats were begging house republicans interview her, interview her, what is going on with the nra and russia. they refused. they shut it down. they knew what was under that. >> now the government has an alleged russian spy here in the united states who they can put on trial. there will be a trial in theory, unless russia has demanded her back. we don't really know how the white house -- i wonder if you're in the polling business. how does this wind up landing with the average voter? not the ideological voter who cares about protecting donald trump or giving democrats the gavel. is there a way to explain this to the average person to explain why it matters. >> when we see indictments of americans and americans members of the trump campaign indicted. joy, given with the naming of the russian spy in maria, politicians will be indicted too. that's when the average voter will say, something is rotten in washington. there is clearly a case here where wrongdoing is being committed

president trump and republicans on the house intelligence committee have disputed the findings from u.s. intelligence organizations. mr. trump is scheduled to pete with putin in finland in -- to meet with finland in two weeks. >>> forget the fireworks, the futuristic plan in the bay area. >> and a possible danger at cookouts today. why you want to carefully inspect the grill before firing it up. i am extremely proud of jackie, gaby and stephanie. we worked with pg&e to save energy because we wanted to help the school. they would put these signs on the door to let the teacher know you didn't cut off the light. the teachers, they would call us the energy patrol. so they would be like, here they come, turn off your lights! those three young ladies were teaching the whole school about energy efficiency. we actually saved $50,000. and that's just one school, two semesters, three girls. together, we're building a better california. for the eleventh time -- the bay ut, has . >> the esophagus of a champion. >> and don't try this at home, please. joey chestnut from the bay area won the nathan's

sure. >> ruth marcus, i want to pick back up on what we were talking a little about the house intelligence committee, the inquiries from devin nunes. if democrats do get a chance to run -- go back to running these committees, how does that sort of unwind? it seems to me they would shutdown most of the nunes inquiries, most likely, but there is potentially quite a few threads for them to pickup going forward. >> yes, and we just had this very interesting, very compelling, very telling report from the senate intelligence committee. but there are additional things to look at, and i think for me, taking back the house is going to be -- would be significant if it happened, not just for the russia inquiry, but for all of the other -- i would be worried if i were the white house and republicans about all of the other strands of inquiry that could go on. imagine what an actual functioning house that was going to be willing to engage in oversight could have done with the late lamented scott pruitt. >> i was just going to say there was reporting in "the new york times" today, mark lauder, before we go, offici

one thing i tried to ask paul ryan about was the finding that was in the house intelligence committee's report that disputed what the intelligence community concluded, that vladimir putin wanted donald trump to become president. well, vladimir putin himself said at that press conference yesterday he did want trump to become president. i asked paul ryan if that was a mistake at all by the house republicans to assert otherwise. he would not go there. he said the republicans found fault with the methodology used by the intelligence dmucommunitn making that conclusion. similarly, other republicans are weighing a wide range of options to respond. some say there should be no response. some say there should be more sanctions. some say there should be a symbolic response. nevertheless, there are some republican, even trump allies like congressman pete king of new york, who said the president made a mistake. >> the president was wrong on that. i agree with the president there's no evidence of collusion, but there's overwhelming evidence of meddling by the russians. everyone i've spoken to in the

joining me a member of the house intelligence committee. a big welcome to you.t to get your reaction to what sam nunberg told me a few moments ago with reference to roger stone. stone went before your committee and was not forthcoming about a number of things. >> yeah, several howevurs of my life i'm never going to get back, alex. i think first of all, an entire cottage industry is being created by people who think they can speculate as to where bob mueller is headed. i don't think we, frankly, can in the particular. in the general. and in the general, the walls are closing in and there's relatively little about that as the indictments accommodate. and i think with reference to michael cohen, we don't have eyes on bob mueller's direction. the other thing that i think we can say is that, he didn't have very much time, bob mueller that is, if he's going to make another announcement, he'll need to do it because i believe he goes dark before the general election because he's not going to want to be perceived as to have meddled in it. >> as for the indictment, the qu

. >> the leading democrat on the house intelligence committee announced he has asked to subpoena the american interpreter who works for fight the subpoena in court. >>> a new poll finds that 70% of americans say that u.s. intelligence agencies are right about russian interference in the election. 24% disagree. >>> and president trump back on the cover of time magazine. this time, he's morphed into vladimir putin. and it's titled the summit crisis. >>> firefighters in the sixth day bat ling a -- battling a deadly wild fire near yosemite park. here are the numbers. more than 20,000 acres have burned since the fire started last friday. it is 7% contained. up just 2% since this morning. the big concern now is the chance of afternoon thunderstorms. here's more. >>> keeping a close watch on the doppler. one area of thunderstorm activity. lightning strikes occurring to the south of us. not good news for the area where the ferguson fire is burning. th is near yosite lakes south of bishop. these are associated with the moisture across the south. right now, high clouds are rolling into the are

intelligence people. but i will tell you that president putin was extremely strong and powerful in his denial today. >> reporter: the view shared by bipartisan committees in the house and senate, and the president's director of national intelligence, dan coates. >> my people came to me, dan coates came to me and others and said, they think it's russia. i have president at putin. he said it's not russia. i don't see any reason why it would be. >> reporter: in washington, many republicans condemned the comments. john mccain said: >> reporter: members of the house intelligence committee on fox news. >> i did not see an american president. i saw two defenders of russia. >> reporter: jack hart worries the comments could undermine national security. >> it's also not a terrible thing to have a good relationship with an adversary. i mean, that obviously has some value to it. but believing everything your adversary says is another thing. >> and president trump will meet today . more reaction on t former governor arnold schwarzenegger said this. >> when are you going to ask for an autograph or something, sold out the intelligence, justice system and worst of all, our country

democrats on the house intelligence committee attempted to subpoena butina for an interview. they say that request was blocked by the republican colleagues on the committee. democrats on the senate intelligence committee also attempted to subpoena documents and an interview. butina refused that request among other things citing republican opposition to it. a missed opportunity, one might say. >> jim sciutto thank you. >>> we're joined by the ranking democrat of the house intelligence committee, congressman adam schiff. congressman, thanks so much for joining us. let's get to the sensitive issue. the president now says he meant to say yesterday he has no reason to believe it wouldn't be russia behind the 2016 cyber attack on american democracy. do you buy that explanation from him today? >> no, it is not the least bit credible. what the president said at the summit with putin about his not questioning whether russia had any motive, he didn't think russia had any motive was completely consistent with everything else he said at the summit, that putin was strong in his denials, an

and that's been so found, as you know, by the house intelligence committee. all we hear about is this phone russia witch hunt. that's all we hear about. there's no collusion with me. there's no russia with me. there's no nothing. honestly, it's a disgrace. >> now, this latest report from the senate intelligence committee comes just weeks before the president's summit with vladimir putin. they will meet in helsinki on july 16th. it's been reported that at least one of their meetings could be one on one, no aides at their side, no one in the room where it happens. today, a team of republican senators led by alabama republican richard shelby were in moscow meeting with russian foreign minister sergey lavrov in an attempt to help set the tone for the upcoming trump/putin sit-down. also today, secretary of state mike pompeo spoke to lavrov by phone, according to the readout by the russian ministry. that conversation was another effort to make sure it all goes smoothly during the summit in finland. trump has been seeking a formal meeting with putin for months now a

also remember, when the house intelligence committee reports -- when those came out, those also did nottion michael cohen making this claim. it's striking that this story is coming out now. not only that michael cohen says he believes this happened, that donald trump knew about this trump tower meeting before, but also that he is making it clear that he is willing to take this to special counsel robert mueller. i think the question that we have been asking all along of whether michael cohen has incriminating information about donald trump, it's clear that cohen now wants the world to know and he wants donald trump to know that the answer to that question is yes. >> what is the president's legal team now saying about all of this, besides what we read in the president's tweet? >> they are calling michael cohen a liar. that is striking. rudy giuliani earlier this year referred to michael cohen as an honest man, an honorable man, someone he believed would tell the truth. that's not what he is saying anymore. take a listen. >> didn't know about it. i know that. i have been over this in great

that time. , is how they were able to ignore the warnings that we were sending from the house intelligence committee after they lost the election, they first tried to blame for canoes, when that didn't work, they switched into this whole concept of russia russia. >> sean: this is a big point, if there was any collusion, you would've known about it at the time. if anything had come up between now and then, you would've seen that as you have seen almost everything. so the question is, why is the witch hunt going on? and how do you look at the mueller indictments of those 12 russians that are the equivalent of our cia operatives, they are never coming to america, there will never be a trial, mueller identities bought companies thinking they would never respond, now he is asking the judge in that case if they could literally not turn over any documents, in other words, that there won't be any disclosure. >> and remember, it's not just about the warnings that i gave into thousand 14, '15, '16, it is also a fact that a year and a half ago, the house intelligence committee had more than the mueller indictm
