if, in fact, what jeff sessions is true, there will be great for this country. he wants to catch these people be for the next time they get to do it. they're going to use this 17 days the you talked about, not to find out who else has leaked, pump to prevent it from happening again, that's what counts. >> david: the last part of his statement when he said when a leak is out, it's already too late. jeff sessions is going to follow through, look at what he's doing with the gangs. he gets up and does his job every day. >> sandra: will leave it there, special counsel robert mueller reportedly in paneling a grand jury in the russia probe as president trump slams the investigation as fake. we debate how it will all play out and a warm welcome for a president and west virginia. my one call message saying president trump still has a formidable army behind him. i didn't know where i was from ethnically. so we sent that sample off to ancestry. my ancestry dna results are that i am 26% nigerian. i am just trying to learn as much as i can about my culture. i put the gele on

as soon as he tapped jeff sessions we knew it would be a disaster. ns famously said once that good people don't smoke marijuana. actually real life is a little bit more nuanced than that. judge napolitano: i saw you biting your tongue when i was doing the intro and quoting the attorney general saying marijuana is as dangerous as heroin. do you think he speaks for donald trump? do you think this is being done to win votes or is he an old-fashioned victorian who finally got the job he wants. >> i haven't seen any evidence this is in trump's heart. i think jeff sessions believes it. it's an authoritarian mindset to have. it's only evil people who do drugs. so you don't have to worry about throwing people in a cage if they have a plant you don't like. judge napolitano: do you see any evidence that fbi agents want to return to arresting marijuana users, something they did in the 40s, 50s and 60s, and are thankfully rid of now to address more dangerous issues? >> i think there are a lot of agents who don't want to police nonviolent crime. you saw that in ne

we like jeff sessions. hands off.at enhancing a split within the division between the president and the republicans? john: in a sense it is, although i don't know how that plays out. i was on the hill reporting this week. you talk to republicans, this is the kind of thing they bring up. it is head scratching. why is he doing this? almost every morning, the president has woken up and criticized his attorney general, often using the kind of manipulation of the truth we would expect of a political campaign. blaming him for things he does not deserve blame for. hillary clinton is one, the president said he should be investigating hillary clinton. well, he can't. the rules that cost him to recuse himself from the russia removegation would also him from anything to do with hillary clinton because of the campaign. secondly, president trump said he doesn't want his attorney general to go after hillary clinton. it is not a priority. during the campaign he said, whatever we would do with hillary clinton, it would be a to my att

your move, jeff sessions.ng us now is senator cory booker of new jersey, who proposed this racial justice bill to, among other things, end the federal prohibition on marijuana. senator booker, great to have you with us. >> thank you. it's great to be on. i want to say to everybody who is watching right now, you have one of the best twitter feeds in all of america. i have been a fan of your tweets and the information you put out, inspiration and the knowledge. >> thank you. you're a good tweeter yourself, sir. thank you very much. let's talk about this bill because of course legalizing marijuana has become more and more popular if you look at the polls. but it's still wildly unpopular with people elected to congress. do you have substantial support for this idea of taking it off what's called, i guess schedule c? >> first of all, there's a rank hypocrisy if you look at the people here that have tried marijuana, who have smoked marijuana, and they're the very people sitting on the barriers for other people to do

of course jeff sessions is the attorney general. but did anyone know that?'s find out in tonight's edition of "lie witness news." [ cheers and applause ] >> what do you think the attorney general should do about jeff sessions' ties to r >> oh, my god. i think that we need to cut all ties to russia. right? that's right. yeah. >> what do you think the attorney general should do about jeff sessions' ties to russia? >> i definitely think he should see what's up with that. maybe submit a few inquiries. >> what do you think the attorney general should do about jeff sessions's ties to russia? >> i think he should try to get t he knew and why he didn't come forward sooner and about that. >> what would you say if i told you that jeff sessions and the attorney general are the same person? >> that would make sense. >> do you believe jeff sessions when he says he's more loyal to the confederacy of dunces than to russia? >> yeah. >> you do? >> i do. >> and who is jeff sessions? >> a guy that i guess under -- under -- ain't he from russia? >> w guy that has been known for

their disloyal to government. >> any moment now, attorney general jeff sessions who president trump has reasonably called weak is expected to announce a major crackdown on classified leaks coming out of the white house. we know the president will like the sound of that. sessions will lay out his effort to stop the string of intelligence leaks that have been tormenting the intelligence investigation over the last month. also going to be there. the briefing comes just a day after actually -- here's jeff sessions at the podium now. >> good morning. i want to thank director coats for being here. dan coats is one of the finest people i've ever known in public service and have tremendous respect for his integrity and professionalism. together, we lead the national insider threat task force established in 2011. this task force has an important role to play and one we are taking seriously. progress has been made and we intend to reach new levels of effectiveness. first, let me say that i strongly agree with the president and condemn in the strongest terms the staggering ability of our governmen

a lot of people are worried about jeff sessions.i-immigration, you know, between him and trump, where does this end? will there be mass deportation of illegal immigrants? - well, sure, some people might call it mass deportation while others may call it opening up late-night hosting opportunities for hard-working legal americans. - jordan, i keep telling you, i'm not illegal. - well, that's not gonna matter in a couple of months. - all right, let's move on. what about the allegations of racism? jeff sessions was denied a federal judgeship in 1986 because he allegedly used the n-word and made a joke about liking the kkk. - come on. what white guy hasn't been accused of being racist for making a joke? i joke about the kkk all the time, and i also go to their rallies. it doesn't make me a racist! - i think it makes you a member of the kkk. - member, grand wizard-- these are all just words! don't be so sensitive! - all right, but jordan, okay, here's my biggest problem, right? jeff sessions is on the wrong side of voting rights. he's sup

so really what you have is jeff sessions saying, look, mr. president, yes, i'm still recusing myself, but i'm here to have your agenda, i'm here to do the things you want to do, and jeff sessions, by the way, is getting a lot of stuff done. he's going after sanctuary cities, looking at sentencing, looking at the drug war. the idea is while president trump might not like jeff sessions personally, he's getting a lot of the things he promised his base he was going to get done in a way the president himself hasn't gotten done. >> he may, it turns out, be going after us, too, in the press. we're going to talk more about that later this hour. shaun, i want to get the last word from you here. new chief of staff john kelly is finishing out his first official week on the job. maybe he's responsible for changes we're talking about. do you think there's a noted difference inside this white house? >> i think there has been some difference. you talk to republicans on capitol hill who have not had a good relationship with the trump white house this year, t

jeff sessions' end of the call or one person on the kelly end of the call, another one on the sessions end of the call. there's a bunch of possibilities and combinations there, but they're all trump administration people, and this is a leaked story from the trump administration about the new white house chief of staff who was brought in to end the leaking in the white house. the leaking will never end. the utterly insane tweeting by the president has ended, at least for a couple of days. but even general john kelly cannot get the president of the united states to behave like a president when it comes to vladimir putin and russia. even general john kelly cannot get a word out of the president of the united states about the expulsion of 755 people from the american embassy in moscow, and even general john kelly could not get the president of the united states to sign the russia sanctions legislation today with the members of congress who passed that legislation in full view of the voters of the united states of america, whose last presidential election was hacked and undermined by vladim

tonight the president is praising jeff sessions for cracking down.sing comp as a jeff sessions will deliver. >> i know that there is a consent sometimes but these things cannot be done overnight. the attorney general is a serious man, he has told the fbi come until the national security division of the doj, this is the priority. and there will be results. he will get to the bottom of this. >> for more on this we go to learn in washington. >> attorney general jeff sessions says is a staggering number of leaks that led him to announce the department of justice would not hesitate to criminally charge anyone who leaks classified information. the fbi has created a new counterintelligence unit specifically to tackle the problem. >> the one thing i think that attorney general might want to do more is substitute the word leaker for criminals. because that's what these folks are. >> just this week transcription the president's private phone calls were leaked. they said this is more than tripled in the first six month of the trump administration then during th

i just met with fbi director christopher wray and attorney general jeff sessions.he department of justice has opened a civil rights investigation into the deadly car attack that killed one innocent american and wounded 20 others. to anyone who acted criminally in this weekend's racist violence, you will be held fully accountable. justice will be delivered. as i said on saturday, we condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry, and violence. it has no place in america. and as i have said many times before, no matter the color of our skin, we all live under the same laws. we all salute the same great flag. and we are all made by the same almighty god. other, show each affection for each other, and unite together in condemnation of hatred, bigotry, and violence. we must rediscover the bonds of love and loyalty that bring us together as americans. and those who, cause of violence in its name are criminals and thugs, including the kkk, neo-nazis, white supremacists, and other hate groups that are repugnant to everything we hold dear

jeff sessions.will be emphatic about what the consequences will be if they'd fight law just as the southern states defy the law in the 1960s. i think you'll be specific. donald trump was not ambiguous about this and 2016. it was a cornerstone of his campaign, getting control of our borders and getting dangerous people who do not want your out. he has made unbelievable progress on both of those scores already. the legal crossings at the border has plunged. dangerous people who do not belong here are being deported and an accelerated rate. i would say to the people who do not like this policy, win the election then. president trump largely one onn this. >> sandra: steve cortez, thank you to see you. need of elements in the investigation into any ties between the trump administration and russia. details of a new report that has a trump team push my pointing the finger the obama administration. and of course, another ceo resigning over charlottesville, even after the president denounced white supremacis

trevor, what was your reaction to jeff sessions' event on friday?think jeff sessions press conference was incredibly disturbing on multiple levels, as you mentioned in the opening that they were going to triple the amount of leak investigations from the obama administration, the obama administration actually prosecuted more whistle blowers and leakers than all other administrations combined. so it's incredibly concerning that he's going to increase that amount. but he talked about issuing guidelines for subpoenaing journalists which is incredibly dangerous to the rights of reporters everywhere. >> tell us what that would mean? >> there are strict rules in the justice department that prevent them from issuing subpoenas to have journalists testify except in very, very rare cases and what jeff sessions is call more reporters to the sand and prosecute them if they refuse to testify. and he also talked about prosecuting journalists. >> they're just keeping the door open to the possibility. does that concern you, matt? >> i think what we heard from rod ro

it has nothing to do with jeff sessions. there's no policy disagreements with jeff sessions. he's furious about mueller being there. what he's furious about, we can all speculate. what he's trying to hide, we can all speculate. but, you know, it's remarkable. this should not be on the table. there is no one in law enforcement who could manage the kind of bipartisan respect that bob mueller does. he's doing the job. it's a serious investigation, and the notion that this president would really be looking for ways to get rid of him is just a travesty. >> i want to read another passage from tonight's breaking news report from "the washington post," which says trump -- his advisers say that trump is increasingly acting as his own lawyer, strategist, and publicist, often disregarding the recommendations of the professionals he has hired. he refuses to sit still. the presidential adviser said he doesn't think he's in any legal jeopardy, so he really views this as a political problem he's going to solve by himself. and, betsy, if he doesn't think he's in any legal jeopardy, why hasn'

i applaud jeff sessions for trying to find out who is doing this.ing the ability of the country to function and hurting the presidency itself. as to president trump, you can say all you want to say about mueller but i find no reason to fire him. ken starr was accused of being a republican. the people working for him were republicans. that's not a reason to disqualify somebody from doing an investigation unless they actually have a conflict of interest. i'm going the play this very straight. mueller will be held accountable for running a professional operation here. if it becomes a series of leaks on his side we'll hold him accountable and make sure he can do his job without political interference. the country needs and deserves that. >> shannon: i'm kind of surprised you are here. all your friends are gone. a lot of folks decided they're doing the recess. you are still working on healthcare. >> i stayed here yesterday. when you hear a republican say we have to move on, no. we haven't taken our best shot at replacing obamacare. i've got an idea that

as you heard from jeff sessions, they say press freedom is not unlimited here. a and the fact they're dedicating resources to this effort. we heard from rod rosenstein after the cameras were turned off. he spoke about this topic as well, saying this is going to be a real priority for them. that the fbi is now in effect had a unit developed that's going to focus specifically on the unauthorized disclosures of classified and confidential information. >> thanks to peter alexander. kristen welker at the white house, this president has complained about leaks. truth be told, i've never seen transcripts released before of a president's comments to other leaders. of course, this announcement today was planned long before those transcripts were published yesterday by "the washington post." >> there's no doubt about that. and let me apologize in advance. they are mowing the lawn here at the white house. so that's the background noise that you hear on this friday. but, look, this has been a big issue for this president as you know. he has said that the main issue with the

the one who brought him to the party is jeff sessions. >> he knew he couldn't get rid of jeff sessionse that building in the congress. jeff sessions is exactly where he wants to be, i think for all the wrong reasons and look, miller isn't being touted because he is great on message. you could see that that in his press conference, what he's being touted for he's in for the fight. he's going to wage that fight on behalf of this. i won't call it a base anymore because 28% ain't a base. >> no. >> last point? >> and despite taking some blow back for the botched immigration ban, the initial rollout, miller has played the western politics very well. he's close to a number of different factions in the building including jared kushner and ivanka trump. >> power players to say the least. >>> when we come back, john mccain shows why he's known as the straight talker, describing public jockeying for the republicans in 2020 -- they see weakness in this president. big question, does that include mike pence? your joints... or your digestion... so why wouldn't you take something for the most importan

attorney general jeff sessions announced changes will be coming...t trump up in arms. jeff sessions/ attorney general: "here is what i want to tell every american today. this nation must end this culture of leaks."in an announcement friday, attorney general jeff sessions laid out some potentially bold steps to crack down on leaks of classified information to the media. it's first step...targeting the media and how subpoenas are issued to them. jeff sessions/ attorney general: "we respect the important role that the press plays and will give them respect, but it is not unlimited."while leaks of classified information are nothing new, they have been a source of much aggravation for president donald trump and his administration since he took office.trump has repeatedly threatened action against those behind the leaks. reality winner, a federal contractor, is the only one so far who has been arrested and accused of doing just that.and friday's announcement shows the justice department is just getting started. jeff sessions/ attorney general: "it is impor

this is what jeff sessions is doing now. jeff sessions has marching orders from president trump. he's trying to get himself back in good with the president by putting on this dog and pony show. what was it when republicans were so upset with the obama administration for doing things like going off james rosen. i've been subpoenaed when i was at the washington post and threatened with jail. so, oh, is that what you guys really believe in all the sudden that reporters are supposed to be toss in the jail. >> i don't think the reporters are a priority >> i think you're right. and i think they can both be right in that, yes, there is something sacred about press freedoms in this country buchlt it's also a question of supply and demand. and we shouldn't be looking at demand. we should be looking at the supply. and that is what they have to address. they have to ask themselves why are there so many leaks, who is leaking, and what can we do about it? and if someone is actually compromising national security and they have broken the law, they have to be prosecuted. there's a feeling in th

he worked for jeff sessions. he was jeff sessions' chief spokesman. >> that's also how he got his job. >> he is a white supremacist and you know it. don't lie. >> you're wrong. i'm not lying. you're saying outrageous -- >> how do you excuse what bannon has to say about jews? i'd like to hear that, brian. >> you know that breitbart is run by -- there are two jewish editors over there. >> that's not the question i asked you. >> nobody out there is going to hear you. brian, give your answer, then governor, back to you. >> i don't think he is an anti-semite. he probably said an awful thing that he regrets now that's part of his divorce proceeding but he's hired two jewish individuals to run breitbart so he doesn't seem that antisemitic to me. >> governor? >> that's like saying people in the south had black slaves, therefore they weren't anti-black. don't be ridiculous. >> you called him a nazi. that's outrageous. >> i think he fits the description. i think he fits the description. >> but i think that clearly, i don't

. >> molly: attorney general jeff sessions addresses the leaks of classified material, but will that help stop release of information the trump administration considers it damaging? lawmakers leave washington for their summer break with some big ticket items on their to-do list, what are the chances they complete it when they return? flames engulfed one of the world's tallest apartment buildings. it's all happening now. attorney general jeff sessions slamming these leaks coming out of the white house and threatening new consequences for anyone who slips information to the press. congress leaving washington for the august recess without accomplishing much on its to-do list, so how does that bode for those big ticket items on the agenda when they come back? we will take it to doug mckelway now who is standing by with more word from the white house. >> we all know how frustrated the president of the united states has been with these continual leaks, his frustration has now filtered down to the department of justice, the fbi and the director of national intelligence who all promised a cr

attorney general jeff sessions was told his job is safe.eneral kelly bring order to the administration? kevin cirilli, bloomberg's chief washington correspondent. kennedy, kievin? -- can he, kevin? kathy: he is trying to turn the page. that's kevin: he is trying to turn the page. he later be communications record just days after it was announced that scaramucci has been brought into the administration. he was working behind the scenes to alleviate concerns from attorney general jeff sessions that he would be on the outs of the administration from what we've seen from president trump ; twitter accounts, and wish he had attacked the attorney general in recent days. it also came from kellyanne conway and press secretary sarah huckabee sanders. many on capitol hill are very uneasy at the statements coming out of the white house regarding attorney general jeff sessions, and quite frankly, they are a bit more refreshed, so to speak, that general kelly had eased their concerns and urging the white house to back off criticisms of the attorney gener

i think jeff sessions did this because he doesn't speak directly to the president any more.ew brownie points. if you recall, the president was complaining about this at a press conference with the leader of lebanon about a week or so ago. >> so you saw this as more show than anything else. >> i did. but i think they are serious. and it troubles me greatly if they are going to go back and revisit the very carefully negotiated rules of the road that the obama administration developed in conjunction with both national security experts and the media. and they came to some agreements about the sorts of avenues they would pursue, the reporters here are not the problem. the problem in the true national security area is people in their own administration. if they go back to that, and they're going to start subpoenaing reporters to reveal witnesses to reveal sources, there is going to be a blowup with this administration. and i think there's going to be a movement then on capitol hill. there should be, anyway, to move ahead with shield law legislation so that this doesn't happen. >>

carol, we're looking at a president now in west virginia and his attorney general jeff sessions todayon friday is starting to go after the media. you have not only the president but non top cabinet officials targeting these enemies for the white house and this administration. sessions may he may -- said he may even s&p journal -- journalists to -- subpoena journalists to talk about leaks. will the trump base stay with him? >> that's the big question how long this can last. president obama a number of times tried to pivot. he would pivot to being a moderate. and what you've seen with president trump is he's going very narrow and very targeted. he was saying things in his speech last night about we. we don't knee this we don't need washington. we're going to do this it was like this collective. these are the true believers. we'll see in the next few months whether or not they stick with him if he can't get health care or do anything on immigration or tax reform or infrastructure or bring back coal jobs. he's heading into a period of his first year in office where there's a lot of must-d

jeff sessions has been very critical of the dacha program. see if he decides the justice department will continue to defend those cases and politically this sets up the white house again for another confrontation with their own party on an issue the president promised to tackle on the campaign trail and changed into an emotional issue once he got into the white house. >> shannon: last month he said it's a decision i make and a decision that's very, very hard to make. i really understand the situation now. >> this is the difference between campaigning on rhetoric and governing talking about 800,000 people under this program now who are working, in school, in the service. they are paying taxes. they are buying homes and they're critical to their families and critical to their communities. for the president and administration to desiepd to rescind the program would be disruptive and businesses are very against rescinding the program. the administration can go all in here. the president can -- the decision is up to him. he can say we're keeping t

he did staff for jeff sessions. i'm in alabama.was on jeff sessions staff and helped him move, push forward very aggressive polici. and steve mill sir from california, from his high school graduation he has an anti-culture and had a bent towards white nationalism and white supremacy and say this goes far beyond just what's happening now and what the president says now. i'll remind us all of how he ran his campaign. chief, his chief strategist, when, appeared he wasn't going to win, was steve bannon. they got this coalition together. they started getting the attention and the support of people on the extreme right. he didn't reject them then. he doesn't reject them now. he has them on his staff, and i don't care what he says. he needs to fire those people, a mr. painter said, move into action. let me also say that it's disingenuous for him to say, let the country come together when he's the first president in decades who refused to honor, pout out a deck dplasheclaratio honoring ramadan. couldn't even say the word jew when he came o

>> i can say this, i think jeff sessions tipped his hand, right? he said this morning he was asked specifically, did the president to enough? he said the president was forceful, he will say more about this. once i heard that, i knew that he would be talking about it. what i did not anticipate was that he would have a specific breakout to talk about it specifically. it does make sense that he would want to do this to not only clear up the sloppiness of the weekend not really getting out ahead of this thing in a forceful way, but more importantly to reassure the american people that justice will be served in this case it, and that's exactly what i expect we will hear. beyond that, your guess is as good as mine. we keep checking our phones here and trying to peer over the side and seeing if i see anything nothing unusual, at least not yet. >> abby: he does keep us on our toes. give us a sense of president trump's style. you are covering the white house every single day of the week. how uncommon is it for him to come out like this unexpected tall divor
