when jim baker comes back -- we didn't get to finish that deposition. he had to leave early. he's be back on thursday. i want to ask him after the meeting that andy mckaip cane told you that rod rosenstein as actually talked about recording the president of the united states and talked about the 25th amendment, i want to know what you guys did. what did the fbi do? who did you talk to after that? did you do some legal research? what happened after that supposedly took place. what kind of actions did you take. and then of course with nelly ohr i want to know why were you picked? there's lots of experts on russia around the capital in the washington, d.c. area. why was nelly ohr picked. was it because your husband was a top doj official and what information did you pass to your husband who then gave it to the fbi. lots of questions that we need to ask them. i look forward to both of those depositions and getting answers. lou: and you are still going to be speaker of the house, are you not? >> still running. main thing over the next 21 days is we've got to keep the majority. i'l

. >> jim baker? >> sean: jim baker, that's it. >> yeah. the reporters thatrs you have on, i'm with two great reporters that have done tremendous work on this front. but i think probably the biggest part is the president is exactly right. there is no collusion.n. he knows it. i know it. even the democrats know it. and it's about time that bob mueller, he must finish the investigation. it's time to call it quits. what we're starting to find out are the wheels are coming off. glen simpson, fusion gps, refused to come before congress, i talked to chairman gowdy this evening, the only option we have now is to hold him in contempt of congress. >> sean: why isn't that happening? where are the 302s that the president was going to release? where are the fisa warrants he was going to release? >> we have got to get those out. transparency is good. as you know, i've been advocating for that,ve the president is advocating. but he wants to be cautious. i applaud that. he's getting accused left and c right of interfering in this investigation. >> sean: i

when jim baker was in his telescoping two weeks ago and asked about this he was as serious as he could be in describing what he saw take place in the meeting were mr. rosenstein spoke about recording the president. if it takes a subpoena that's what should be issued. >> you were in the first interview what do you want from james baker? >> this is the fbi chief council. all kinds of things flow through him. when he said he believed rosenstein was serious about this alleged statement about recording the president you have to take that with the weight it comes with because it's the fbi chief council. we'll ask him more about that. our previous telescoping was cutofmeeting.all of those thinge asked. >> you have spoken to him already and also with the lawyer from the democratic committee. tell us why that's important. >> you have so many people communicating. you have nelli's husband that was getting information that he was passing on. you had glenn simpson passing pg information to the fbi. now they are giving information to the chief council as well. the more people you have talking about

you mention mccabe, comby is gone, jim baker is gone. there has been some accountability. would be more if the democrats spent more time working with their republican colleagues and more time with media leaks. that's my flustration. the department belongs to all of us. democrats alike woulden like bias fbi agents. who walled have thought it would have taken peter to find a law enforcement agent they liked. all of the times they are critical of law enforcement and defend one of the most bias agents in public service. that's where we are and why i can't wait to be gone. >> thank you so much. thank you for your service as well. >> yes, ma'am. >>> meanwhile, it's deadline day for canada and a new nafta agreement tonight with the united states. where do we stand with one of our biggest trading partners. peter is next. peter is next. we'll beeeee see a little blood when you brush or floss? you may have gum disease and could be on a journey to much worse. try parodontax toothpaste. it's three times more effective at removing plaque, the main cause of bleeding gums. leave bleeding

his memory was that he just saw two people reagan and baker, , then chief of staff jim baker.ers reagan seeming a little bit uncomfortable. reagan had been a big supporter of the fed and good about not criticizing, even though they had quite a tough time with the economy because of the high interest rates he was using to squeeze inflation out. now, it's an election year. volcker is brought there. reagan does not say a word. only baker speaks. he recounts in the book he saw baker say, the president is ordering you not to raise interest rates. he did not know what to say. he had seen johnson, who had no trouble twisting arms. even he had not gone that far. that, you talk about poker had no plans and a way to raise rates so now he is in a bit of a predicament. christine: it was not just an election year. you had one of the biggest banks in the country was collapsing at that point, continental illinois. there were all kinds of problems in the money markets. they went from a restrictive monetary policy to worrying more about keeping the financial institution on its feet. he was not

jim baker. he remembers reagan seeming a bit uncomfortable.eagan had been a big supporter of the fed and good at not criticizing the fed, although they had a tough time with the economy because of the high interest rates he was using to squeeze inflation out. now, it's an election year. reagan says nothing. baker speaks. what he recounts in the book is that he saw baker basically say the president is ordering you not to raise interest rates. he didn't know what to say. he had seen johnson, who had no trouble twisting arms. and even he had not gone that far. carol: volcker had no plans to raise rates. now he's in a predicament. christine: it is easy to forget that it was not just election year. you had one of the biggest banks in the country collapsing at that point, continental illinois. there were all sorts of problems in the money markets. he didn't know what to say in his meeting. he just found himself sort of thinking i better not tell us o anybody. carol: i am curious what volcker had to say about the current president. he is so outspoken

morning everyone and thank you for participating in this joint us russian environmental seminar i'm jim baker i mean administrators of the national oceanic and atmospheric administration and i'd like to thank the organizers particularly linda zali and ned austin so for their hard work in getting us to this point general polley shook who i grew to have great respect for broke the ice at this meeting he gave a talk and he first slide that he showed in his presentation was a satellite picture from russian. reconnaissance satellite program showing. the construction of a super secret facility that we heard so he showed this picture being constructed it just broke the ice everybody laughed we were privileged to have academicians savin from the russian side and academician bond to our who is his deputy of kmita was not going to groom them college them. to sell unless there we had a great number of american colleagues here who is this is the russian delegation was large one hundred people i'd say most all of them involved in the sense or environmental issues. as in you my disability somebody started

right after that meeting they came and talked to jim baker and he took that very seriously. from there, what did you guys do? was there some kind of legal analysis of looking to record the president of the united states, what subsequent meeting took place? >> harris: we were watching jim jordan before heading into top fbi lawyer james baker's closed-door testimony happening today. jordan says he will press baker over the reports that rod rosenstein wanted to secretly record president trump. the invoke the 20 for the amendment the president from office. catherine herridge is live on capitol hill. >> i've been dipping in and out of this informal gaggle with congressman mark meadows. he told was serious we had something very similar in the deposition today. he said baker, the former general counsel for the fbi had not backed away from that characterization. it's important to note that james baker was not in this may 2017 meeting when the comments were allegedly made, he's relying on an account from then acting director andrew mccabe and fbi lawyer lisa page. >> it's deeply trou

mike: lawmakers interviewed former fbi agent jim baker saying there was another unnamed source feedingmation to the fbi before the fbi launched their investigation of the trump campaign. that individual has been identified as michael sussman with links to the democratic national committee. >> you have one of the top lawyers for department krat and clinton campaign feeding information directly to the top lawyer at the fbi, before even the fisa warrant. so now you have absolute proof that that wasn't told to the fisa court. you want your evidence of fisa abuse? there it is right there. mike are's a former prosecutor and united states attorney. what do you make of fox news report being a senior fbi official being in touch with a dnc lawyer sharing information about the trump campaign? >> i think it's probably much ado about nothing. the key word is dnc-linked. somebody who used to work in counter espionage or cyber-security at the fbi had a different client that he wanted to take to his former colleagues. that happens all the time. that's why these lawyers when they go into private practi

that is jim baker and what he says about, in his testimony about this fbi investigation into the trump /russia collision and a narrative that we have spoken about so many times. stay with us, devin nunes is with me. we will get his thoughts on what republicans are calling explosive development in their investigation into the justice torment into the election. stay with us. more with devin nunes as we come back and look ahead on "sunday morning futures". maria: welcome back! house republicans expected to hold a closed-door interview with rod rosenstein this upcoming week. this follows new revelations in the congressional probe into the department of justice handling of the investigation into the 2016 trump campaign. leslast week james baker reportedly said there was another source feeding fbi information.before they launched a probe of the trump campaign. republicans are calling it a bombshell. >> some of the things that were shared were exclusive in nature. i mean i could not believe that i was hearing some of the testimony that here in the united states, that the doj and fbi were invo

. >> we have the secretary of treasury here how can you answer this with jim baker in the room? [laughter] simpson bowles that is as everyone recalls was bipartisan people outside of elected office working together to see how we can get it to balance and it was to be taken to congress and voted up or down without amendment. they came close but they didn't quite get there. that that kind of approach may be the only process to deal with this but i hope you understand where we are that you spend $4 trillion last year from the federal government and took 3 trillion in. so we borrow that by selling bonds to other people and other nations and we will probably never back on - - pay that back but you pay the interest every year sony had the misfortune to lose to president obama the day after i lost i got a call from bill clinton and we had a nice chat for half an hour he said when interest rates are returning at a normal level we will have 750 billions dollars per year in interest more on the military he said how can we lead the world if we are spending more on interest to other countri

president, let's call henry kissinger, jim schultz, conde rice, jim baker. we have a huge interest in this area of the world. >> we have pictures as this man should be demanding answers, it's this photo-op with they're smiling. not only that you have -- again, we don't want to criticize how much people are smiling in their instagram photos, but i think it's germane that heather nauert is grinning ear to ear. again, do your job. demand answers and don't buy the cover story. >> we have no saudi ambassador. there are appointments that have not been made by the administration that are incredibly important. i think it's a real tipping point. we've already seen the trump administration pulling out of the old geo political order. i think this is a moment when europeans in particular who are already trying to create mechanisms where they can do business with iran. i think this is a time when old allies are going to turn and say this is not who we are. >> what message does it send the world? where are his morals? i say that out of one side of my mouth. on the other s

lou: let me ask you, why did mccabe, why did lisa page go into jim baker's general counsel office afterhat meeting to have a discussion about it to which he testified but did not, as far as i know, explain the motivation for the meeting. how it came to pass? >> yeah, it's amazing. also it's a sign they believed what they heard. he thought it was a joke, he wouldn't have a meeting with baker to talk about a joke. here they're having a postmortem meeting to talk about it. you have to put it in context, it's may am the fbi just had fbi director fired, james comey. we know for good cause from the ig report, and looks like they're trying to get retribution from the president. that's not what the fbi and justice department is supposed to be doing. focusing on counterintelligence crimes and threats, i go back to what the agent said to me today, the federal bureau of politics, all ought to pause and think how dangerous that is if the fbi sees itself that way now. lou: frightening to think how the fbi must consider itself. if truth has gone to die, truth has gone there to die. the fbi doesn't do

you heard jim jordan saying that this lawyer, jim baker took them seriously when they said that they anted to wiretap president trump and jim jordan said, i want to ask in the meeting that directly followed, what happened? did you talk about it more seriously? >> brian: this is very important. what we are trying to figure out or how deep do the politics and the political motivations go and what is supposed to be a nonpolitical process. and baker has been helpful in that giving a behind-the-scenes look. we are talking about -- >> melissa: what could be his motivation there? >> brian: maybe he wants to tell the truth. you are talking about baker? maybe he wants to tell the truth and get past and figure out what is going on, that is a simple answer. but perhaps that's what's going on. in any case, that's what we need to be because the country is losing faith in institutions. and this is part of the process of getting to the bottom. >> melissa: marie, what do you make of somebody saying the exact opposite? >> marie: we do not know what happen, we hear the same things out of rod rosenstein

how can i answer this question with jim baker in the room? [laughter] simpson-bowles was a bipartisan effort to say let's have some people outside of office to get the budget to ultimately balance. d. it was supposed to be taken to congress and be voted up or down without amendment. it came close but did not quite get there. it may be the only process, that kind of approach might be the only process to deal with this. but i hope you understand just where we are. we spend about $4 trillion last year on the federal government and we took in about 3 trillion. so we are about $1 trillion short. so we borrowed that trillion dollars by selling bonds to other people and other nations. and we will probably not ever pay that debt back. but you are paying the interest every year. when i had the misfortune of losing to president obama, the next day i had a call from bill clinton. we had a nice chat and he said that when interest levels return to their level, we will be spending $750 billion on interest. more than we spend on military. he wondered how we

>> the secretary of treasury here how can i answer the question with jim baker in the room? simpson bowls. and that's a darn good suggestion. which is simpson bowls is probably everyone in this room recalls was an effort bipartisan to say lts have people outside of elective office work together to see how we can get the budget ultimately to balance, and it was to be taken to congress and voted up or down without amendment. it came close but didn't get there. it may be the only process that kind of approach may be the only process to deal with this. i hope you understand just where we are, which is we spent about $4 trillion last year, from the federal government and we took in about three trillion. we are about a trillion short. and so we borrow that trillion by selling things to other nations and we're probably never going to pay back the 21 trillion in debt we have. but you're paying the interest every year, and when i had the misfortunate of losing to president obama, the day after i lost i got a call from bill clinton, and we had a chat for about a half hour, and he said

maria: jim baker said it was no joke.it was no joke, it was the plan to wear a wire, tape the president and invoke the 25th amendment, that's from jim baker, the fbi lawyer. >> the former fbi lawyer. there's little that the congress can do about this, other than shame him. he can't be impeached for this. they can press the president to fire him. the president for his own reasons ha decided not to do it. maria: he'll probably do it after the midterms. dagen: andy mccabe and baker may be out to get rosenstein because he also helped write the memo that was behind the firing of jim comey or that was the just ajustification. >> they lost their jobs because rosenstein did what the president wanted. dagen: the president's not going to fire anybody based on a new york times report. just the optics of that. maria: not before the midterms. dagen: maybe after the midterms. >> a lot of people think that in two months the attorney general of the united states is going to be lindsey graham and he will choose his own deputy. senator gra

jim komi was fired, andrew mccabe was fired, jim baker was fired. lisa page resigned.hese individuals with the highest levels of the fbi. this story is not over yet. when the inspector general horvitz has his reports and he is referring criminal indictments against a deputy director of the fbi, that should give every american pause of not only these people spying on american citizens, but they were doing it with a badge and legally. that should give great's to every american who should be concerned that if they can do this to a candidate running for president of the united states, they can do it to anybody. host: have you been contacted by robert mueller or any part associated with the special counsel? front oftestified in the house committee on to the below occasions, testified in front of the senate committee. i left the campaign -- host: house and senate intelligence committee? guest: yes. i left in june. left, that seems to be the focus whether that is gratuitous or lucky, i don't know. i didn't communicate with any russians, coordinate with any russians, collude w

duck anyway.e jim baker would have been ideal, but the ftp wouldn't play ball and this could ultimatelyead to the spd coming up with a vote of confidence and then trying to form something. if they don't want to play ball, it's a new election and then it's bad. then the euro goes down. that is six months, nine months away, and in the meantime you do have merkel and this is a dignified way of exiting over 12 to 18 months, but the market was expecting that anyways. it just doesn't mean it's going to go to 116 in a hurry. david: but what is left for europe in the aftermath of that? >> it, italy, the s&p didn't cut ratings, "you have hungary and poland pulling off to the right, someone has to pull it together, will it be up to the crown -- macron? you had withwhat merkel, she was so popular in germany she could become the chancellor of europe. but macron doesn't have the popularity base. europe is europe at present. it's populism taking on a terrific vision of what europe should be in terms of unified nation, but this populism is hurting it. the not killing it, i think euro survives, but thi

mccabe and miz page talk to jim baker and he took it seriously. a legal analysis looking to record the president of the united states. what subsequent meetings took place? those are the first series of questions we'll ask mr. baker. then a host of other things we have to get to as well. >> julie: right. so in just about 30 minutes from now you'll have a chance to ask those questions. he will be testifying after some explosive testimony yesterday where he basically called the russia probe being handled in an abnormal fashion and also mentioned that it reflected political bias. that's a quote. this is no surprise. i'm not sure if democrats seem surprised by this given the peter strzok and lisa page texts. is political bias enough to derail the mueller probe? >> i think it was interesting that yesterday rod rosenstein has time to sit down with the "wall street journal" and do an interview where he says the mueller investigation appropriate and moving in the right direction. and yet i can't come talk to congress about the idea that he made a statement

. >> very important what jim baker can testify to is a direct conflict between the head of the fbi actingr andy mccabe and his testimony and take on that conversation and the head of the department of justice for purposes of the russia investigation, rod rosenstein. there's a direct conflict between the heads of both of those components within the department of justice and we need to get truthful answers about that. maria: so somebody's lying. is there going to be accountability here, congressman? what should we believe in this story? we've been covering this all year kabal of people who didn't like donald trump and created this story that he had anything to do with the russia meddling and it's out there. the public, it's out there in the zeitgeist. how do you make sure the american people understand what took place and make sure there's accountability here for those who created this narrative? >> we're going to keep asking the tough questions that we have been. it's one of the reasons why the deputy director of the fbi has already been criminally referred for lying and for lack of candor

some of the people in the room, including jim baker, who at the time was the general counsel of the fbie left voluntarily when comey was fired, he said we thought it was quite serious. so rod rosenstein, whatever he meant, obviously is very reluctant to stay away from hand on the bible and swearing to tell the truth, he has offered to speak to bob goodlatte,. maria: not under oath. >> not under oath and not with an audience and not with a committee. they're literally having coffee to see if he can sort of dial this back. i don't know where this is going to go until election day. i think the white house is going to view this very differently after election day. we heard some hints about that in the president's -- he didn't mention rosenstein. we heard hints about that from the president's interview on 60 minutes last night. maria: if the house manages to hold onto the majority -- >> you mean if the republicans hold the majority. maria: right, if the republicans hold the house, i would not be surprised to see a tweet from the president that night, rosenstein, you're now, sessions you're o

andrew mccabe was fired for lying to investigators, and jim baker who left when james comey was firedtwo different versions of what happened in that room. of course has the presence here all the time. the president believes it was sarcastic. if he has been with him a half-dozen times, i think his job is safe for now or at least until the midterm us. >> sandra: he was told he would be coming, now he is not. how can they move forward? >> there are two things that the house judiciary committee wants to ask rosenstein about. they want to ask him did you say this? why would he say? why would you say something like this even in jest? did you ever talk about this with anyone else? i think legitimate questions. what's going on with the meal or investigation. seeing what documents there are, how much longer is it going to go on? we want to know how much money will be spent. rosenstein says i will talk informally and privately to the chair of the judiciary committee. i am not going under oath, and i'm not going to discuss this. on this, he has some solid ground on which to stand because the rul

. >> comey is gone, brennan is gone, lisa page is gone, jim baker is gone, there has been some accountabilitythink there would be more if the democrats spent more time working with the republican colleagues and less time coordinating media leaks. >> in a letter to the committee mr. comey says, quote, mr. comey respectfully declines your request for a private interview. he would welcome the opportunity to testify at a public hearing given that mr. comey no longer has a security clearance we do not anticipate a public setting to present concerns about disclosure of classified information. a couple points worth noting. that lawyer, david kelly, is one of at least three people who received the comey members. some of them contained classified information. the subject of an f.b.i. investigation into whether there was a classified spill and not clear how it could affect the anticipated closed-door deposition next week from deputy attorney general rod rosenstein. >> sandra: thank you. >> he has been racist, he has been sexist, he has been islamophobic, he has been anti-lgptq. there is a long list. he

jim baker, you served in the fbi at the highest levels and left the fbi under much muted circumstances. when you look at the relationship between the fbi and the white house, what do you see as the greatest threat to the rule of law? >> well, thanks for having this panel. thanks to everyone who spent time setting up. i appreciate the opportunity to be here. two things, i guess. i guess the greatest threat to the rule of law seems to me to be a lack of sustained support for the institutions of justice, i'll call them. a lack of support of those institutions over time by the american people. if the american people don't support and trust those institutions, then the system will not work. that's the bottom line. if i can just back up a bit and maybe this will help explain how i'm thinking about this. in preparation for this panel and through the course of my career and working with ken and david for many, many years, trying to think about what are we talking about when we talk about the rule of law, what does that mean. it's pretty tough to boil it down, i think, but i guess the way i wou

and i do have a specific plan and, jim, i know it's controversial among some, but it's a plan and charlie baker's plan is zero and zero is not going to cut it. >> can i just respond to that? so his plan raises a billion dollars now if he gets it passed and two billion if he gets the next piece passed four years from now. earlier childhood ed costs a billion dollars. the plans associated with public transportation costs, many billions, multiple billions. it's at least two billion and year and on top of that, some of the other stuff he's talked about is huge money as well. the notion that he's put enough plans on the table to fund all the stuff he's promising and committing to simply isn't true and that's not really governing or leadership. that's politics. and in addition to that, we have put the status quo administration, as he calls us, has put 110 million in new money into pre-school. and we did that because we believe it's important to fund it. when he was the naf secretary he cut it by 85 million dollars while he was raising state spending by 6.5 billion. >> one's reality-- >> all the numbers

baker. republican mark meadows and jim jordan telling fox news that his testimony is the most explosive to dategs that were shared were explosive in nature. i couldn't believe that i was hearing some of the testimony here in the united states. that the doj and fbi were involved with. >> during the time, prior to the election, there was another source giving information directly to the fbi. which we found the source to be pretty explosive. >> melissa: excuse me? familiar with the congressional investigation, they tell fox news that source was a lawyer for the dmc and the clinton campaign. james baker reportedly telling investigators that lawyer michael sussman initiated contact with baker and provided documents and electronic media on russian hacking. sussman, a partner in the d.c. law firm that commissioned the trumpet dossier. tucker, were you able to follow all the ins and outs of that? >> tucker: i was. this is the worst system ever devised, were a small group of people nobody trusts are the only ones with access to the primary documents. you pointed out the beginning of the show. then they

baker's the fbi lawyer. and then on friday nelly orr, the wife of bruce ohr, is going to be -- so we've got a huge show anticipating that, representative jimmer federal prosecutor, he is on the judiciary and homeland security committees. and then we've got kevin mccarthy coming up talking about his bill to pay for the wall, build the wall and enforce the law. doesn't that sound good? ed: it sounds interesting -- >> enforce the law. ed: maria will be here top of the hour. thank for coming in. >> thank you so much. ed: it's the sweetest day of the year, it's national dessert day. ice cream, and trish has one of her kids here -- trish: she's been staring ate it for the last 20 minutes. -- staring at it for the last 20 minutes. ed: we'll get into that. ♪ ♪ well, i don't know what you'd wanna buy because i'm just a guy on your tv. esurance. it's surprisingly painless. but how do i know if i'm i'm getting a good deal? i tell truecar my zip and which car i want and truecar shows the range of prices people in my area actually paid for the same car so i know if i'm getting a great price. this is how car buying was always meant to be. this is trueca
