we transcribed it john bolton. john bolton. we're on remote. john bolton's like it's broken up. no john bolton does the you said this interview would be 15 minutes and you're 15 minutes are up, sir. and i'm like, actually, i've got a clock in front of me. we're not at that time and that is a great moment to know that john bolton, who john bolton is, you know, is nobody's fool. what do you do about john? what smart guy he's been debating since the yale political union is actually very good at interviews. interviews don't get better. that's a great moment to go. okay. i have the receipt. he thinks he's out of here, but he's not out here. so those are great moments when you talk about in the book, you know, you know, gotcha questions. as a former president, i'm sure you've accused others of using gotcha. sure. it's classic move from politicians. oh, that's a gotcha question. nothing wrong with a gotcha question. that's good i'm trying to get you i'm holding it to account right now. my goal, i love the way people run away. yeah, i'm trying to get you. i make no apologies for that. r

there is a turn on when i'm burying john john bolton i said that john bolton because i did my homework and i found this all the speeches and i found him giving a speech to the mujahideen he and iranian opposition group. he's giving paid speeches for money. no whenever asked about this so i asked him john bolton what about the mak? did they pay you 10 grand a speech or whatever it is? huddy dare you suggest that i do that. no one buys john bolton but did they pay you for your speech is? no, hillaryye quentin de-listed them. what about that for a date a-list did you and we transcribed at? john bolton is like, you said you've said this interview at the 15 minute and your 15 minutes are up sir and i'm like actually know i've clock and enemy and we have lifetime. john bolton as you know he's nobody's. now whether what you think about john bolton he's good at interviews. i have the receipt and he thinks he that appear but is not out appear. those moments are greathe momen. as a former press secretary i'm sure you've been accused of that. and there's nothing wrong withha gotcha question. i'm

john bolton does you said this interview would be 15 minutes.er] and your 15 minutes are up sir. and i'm like actually no. i've got a clock in front of me we're not at that time. now that was a great moment to know that john bolton he's, you know, nobody's fault but smart guy been debating since the yale political union is very good at interviews most interviews don't get the better of him that's a great moment i have the receipt he thinks he's out of it so mommies are great moment when is you -- talk about in the book you know, in the former press but i'm sure accused others -- it is a classic move from politicians.li but nothing wrong with that. that iswr good i'm trying to got you holding you to account. right -- a goal. >> getting it. trying to got you i make no apologies for that right holding someone catching them if you're inking the i'm going to call you out general michael flynn. before you went full q and had short national security in american history he came on my show he was a trump proxy at that time in the 2016 race and we discove

ambassador john bolton, in addition to national security adviser, also obviously an attorney. ton, you've seen the indictment alleged the former president tried to illegally overturn the election but he did so knowing he lost it. are you satisfied with the scope of the charges against him? >> well, i'm satisfied with the scope. i think it's a very well done indictment, obviously tailored for a speedy trial, which i think is important. i think this case has a problem that the classified documents case really does not. and that is the question of what trump's state of mind actually was and what he knew, purported to know about the election, and what his sbintentions were. and i'm worried that given the stakes here and given the criminal law standard of reasonable doubt to be enough to find a juror -- for a juror to find trump not guilty, that this case could be problematic because i think in the big picture of what's best for the country, which is making sure donald trump doesn't become president again, if this case were to go to trial, first, let's say, among the several crimina

i want to bring in john bolton, former top national security adviser who is also a former u.n. ambassador. ambassador, it's really good to see you. i can't tell you, those odds of a one, not too good, four out of 44. we'll get to that in a second. but you are pretty clear of your own critique and criticism of donald trump. but i wonder if you asked the same question that bill barr was asked, when it came down to a trump and biden matchup. what would you do? >> i would do the same thing that i did in 2020. i live in maryland, which permits right in voting. i always like to vote for a conservative republican. between biden and trump, there was no conservative on the ballot. so i wrote in the name of a conservative, and i would do the same in 2024. >> who is that name? >> i have not told anybody, but, someday i may. but i am not revealing. >> tonight is a good night to do so, john bolton, we should just go ahead and share everything. did you write your name in? what's your own name written and? >> i did not write my own name in. no. it was a living republican conservative. >> the

john bolton, a smart guy and is very good at interviewing.e's out so it's a greatlk moment -- i'm sure you have accusedit others but theres something wrong with that -- i'm trying to get -- i make no apology. if you are inconsistent going to call you out. for you went full and on this in american history, he came on my show and we discovered during the obama administration and the end, he had the dia and we found a quote where the program wasn't a threat so i decided to talk about in the t book he way to disarm your opponent and they would say that's below the beltl [laughter] so we must. as it you agree of the program? i don't agree with that. those are your words. there was a moment, some people cheer at football games, that's my moment. that's my moment. the receipt for chapter three is aboutt that. don't get into any debate if you're not armed and sometimes physical. it comes from one thing and it's great to have a document and you have done that. >> i have is my pocket. >> one thing you talk about in the book, where you balance between f

and he on bbc weld and he was opposite john bolton, who's a us diploma. and they were talking about something and tony been made this amazing comment. he said, you know, both are and cause the k m, the us are in decline and you go to accept and you know you're going to or you read on separate be american from john bolton. but he was an amazingly gracious person 30, but i think he was absolutely right. first and cars are in decline on throughout the street. you've seen him paused decline and others take the place and now it is the rise of asia. it's the 21st century, and these regions will we work to trade with our neighbors. we should be able to trade with russia. you know, we should be able to trade with iran, and yet we ascension, and it doesn't make any sense for us to be sanctioned. like that and not to be able to trade with our neighbors. i mean neighbors, you can't change your neighbors. you can change foreign policies, but you can't change over your neighbors. now, we only have a couple of minutes left. we've talked a lot about sort of this and use

for the 19 photofiles portal , written by the former national security adviser of donald trump, john bolton. in his opinion, taka the proposal may include an immediate cease-fire, fixation of the front line and further negotiations with ukraine , according to mr. bolotun in berlin, paris and washington will feel a great temptation to agree to a settlement. they want to leave the russian war in ukraine in the past. only the fact that this is the assumption of this honorable gentleman will decide, but with the remote control , the assumptions of this honorable gentleman should be listened to, after all, given the mood of europe. she helps us . radio kosud was on the air, but the prime minister of hungary, viktor orban, still spoke about ukraine, to his great regret, according to him , ukraine will not be able to defeat russia because it is simply unreal. of the american tv channel fox news , what kind of video did he post on his page in the micro-blog x - this is the former twitter, and more, according to mr. orban , even thoughts about weakening russia are dangerous because all the calculati

and you know, you've been very rude on stuff from the american from john bolton, but he was an amazingly gracious person 30, but i think he was absolutely right. those empires are in decline on throughout the street. you've seen him class decline, and others take the place and now it is the rise of asia. it's the 21st century. and these regions will we work to trade with our neighbors. we should be able to trade with russia, you know, we should be able to trade with iran, and yet we have sanctioned and it doesn't make any sense for us to be sanctioned by that and not to be able to trade with our neighbors. i mean neighbors, you can change your neighbors, you can change foreign policies, but you can change over your neighbors. now, we only have a couple of minutes left. we've talked a lot about sort of this and used potential effect of sun, but i want to pay homage to your roots as well. and, you know, whenever i visit packers, and i'm always sort of uh, stricken by the legacy of your founding father. and, well, how about de leon, janelle, who i think was a man of this amazing cohort on t

in a few, minutes former -- john bolton's take. also, what security now looks like around the courthouse. but first, cnn's paula reid starts us off. paula, so what is the latest on what we know about logistics tomorrow? >> we expect the former president will travel here to washington to attend this hearing in person, even though he did have the option to do this virtually. now this is a courthouse that is used to dealing with the ip 's, and people with motorcade. so it is highly possible that we may not see him at all during this court proceeding, there is a garage underneath this courthouse where most vips or people who want to avoid the media can easily pull into. and then of course there are no cameras in federal court. but once he is inside, the courthouse tomorrow, anderson, he is effectively under arrest. he will be processed like any other defendant, but we do not expect that he will have a mugshot taken. this issue came up in the manhattan appearance, and the florida initial appearance. mugshots are for juanita speckles in

and now i will continue to thank you because john bolton spoke as a representative of, let's say, theosition. and now a representative of the current government , the united states of america allocates an additional package of military aid to ukraine worth 200 million dollars , us secretary of state anthony blinken announced this today - according to him , this time the armed forces of ukraine will be given ammunition for anti-aircraft support systems , and artillery shells, javelins from means for demining, while the leader of the american foreign policy department reminded the russian leadership that it can end this war by withdrawing its troops from the territory of ukraine well, as long as the kremlin does not do this, says anthony blinken, the united states will continue to help ukraine as long as it takes and will provide weapons. after anthony blinken only hinted about what will be in this new package, the spokesman for the pentagon came out and he already said in more detail, in particular, there will be ammunition for the patriot air defense system, as well as ammunition for

john bolton tells me he recently went to georgia to meet privately with kemp to gauge his interest about jumping in and taking on trump. >> both experienced governors. all right, robert costa. thank you. >>> well, today federal agents arrested an illinois woman who is accused of threatening to shoot former president trump and his youngest son, barron, who is 17 years old. court documents say that tracy fee ren za admitted to making her threat in emails to a school in palm beach, florida, in may and june. the trumps' primary residence is in palm beach. fee ren za is expected to be brought to florida to face charges. >>> a community in california is hken after a local business owner was shot to death. police say the gunman objected to the mother of nine displaying a pride flag outside her shop in lake arrowhead. here's cbs's elise preston. >> reporter: the pain palpable as community members cling to each other for comfort. signs of love and support flood this space where loved ones say hate killed lauri carleton. carleton was shot and killed friday after police say the shooter made several

>>> let's dig deeper on the involvements with john bolton, a former national security adviser in the ambassador to the united nations. thanks for being with us. now that the kremlin has confirmed that prigozhin is dead how does this change the dynamic not only on the battlefield in ukraine but also internally in russian politics? >> i don't think there's any question that blowing away prigozhin, his top deputy and several other wagner group officials puts putin in a stronger hand. i've heard some people say, oh, he is still at risk. look, shakespeare said uneasy lies the head that wears the crown. that's always true. i think the lesson that russia's elites around the world learned is that putin is deadly serious and if you go after him, you better succeed, which prigozhin didn't. i think putin's attention now will turn to trying to make up for the abysmal performance of the russian military in ukraine and i'm very worried that if the gridlock in the ukrainian spring offensive continues that putin will try something diplomatically in september/october to try to freeze the battle lines

ambassador, john bolton. thank you for being here tonight. mark meadows is now claiming that all of these actions that he took after the election, calling folks in georgia, et cetera, were all part of his official job. i wonder, do you think he is o overreaching here or does he have a chance in actually succeeding in making that argument and moving this case over to federal court? >> well, i think his argument is incorrect because the president, from whom meadows' authority derives, doesn't have any supervisory power over state elections. trump as a presidential candidate certainly has an interest in it and meadows following his orders would do a lot of things in any presidential campaign as part of it, in this case allegedly including criminal activity. but there's a distinction between official duties or acting under official authority and doing things that you happen to do just because you're president or chief of staff or anything else. so i think it's a weak argument. but it is one that could appeal and for the particular kind of removal

john bolton had to find a telephone to tracking him down and deliver the news.nd he said congratulations, you have been confirmed, 98-0. and the battle to get request confirmed from associate justice to chief justice had been successful and arduous that 98 -- 98-0 was looking good to everyone on the conversation process. on the other line he said something -- there was silence. still he asked who didn't vote? well it was barry goldwater and a senator from utah. but isn't this great, you got confirmed. you got confirmed. there was silence and then be. you told me that we couldn't get these two republican nominees yet, at this point bolton told me he got a little irritated and he said concentrating, you know, you have just been confirmed 98-0, goldwater had gone home sick on the night of the vote, and the utah senator was donating his kidney to his daughter. and finally scalia says that's right, thank you. >> this is part of how we talked about that he suffers losses he carries us with him. talk about that later. >> and when i came back to washington as a reporter

>> joining me now is john bolton someone who worked with trump, with his former white house nationalsecurity adviser. ambassador, thank you for being here with us tonight. as someone who worked inside the west wing with donald trump, when he was president, what is it like to see as mugshot tonight? >> well, i thought it was, as most things trump does carefully stage. they must of thought about what looks he wanted. he could've smile, but i, is that he looks like a thug. i think it is intended to be a sign of intimidation against the prosecutors and judges. that's with the picked and we will see that picture everywhere. >> i think that actually spent time deciding should he smile and, should he island the scowl that he appears to have gone? >> almost as much time as they spent coleman is here. >> he posted the mugshot shortly after on his own social media account along with the phrase never surrender. a bit ironic given that he just surrendered at the fulton county jail. how do you expect him to try to use this to his political advantage as he is running for president? >> well i think

john bolton, the former national security advisor of the us, also claimed that the american prisonerse illegally imprisoned and said that the us would pay one and two tenths of a billion for each of these prisoners. dollar to iran has also reported with cnn that negotiations for the release of prisoners between iran and the united states have been going on for two years. the iranian foreign minister had announced the negotiations in the past months, but the american authorities had denied these negotiations and now our relationship with ms. samaneh akwan, an expert on american issues, has been established. ms. afghan , hello, i am at your service and at the service of the respected viewers of the program. recently , between iran and the united states , we have seen different reactions to american politicians, the authorities of this country, and the american media. you about this the reactions were very diverse, but mostly within the united states, they were against these measures , which, of course, is due to the 2020 elections, when the political atmosphere of the united states has

listen to john bolton. >> i thought it was most things trump does, carefully stage. they must of thought about what look they want to. he could have smiled. he could've looked benign. instead he looks like a thug. and i think it's intended to be a sign of intimidation against the prosecutors and judges. that's what they picked and we will see that picture everywhere. >> we will see that picture everywhere. we keep asking this question. it may be more on for asking it, but tomorrow publican, trump is a 57% in the national pools, when you add them out. a 40-point lead over his nearest rival. in the next election. even though he is charged with trying to steal the last election. is that photo going to serve his purpose, which is i'm a martyr, i'm a victim, not a defendant who tried to steal the country? >> he is signaling to his people that that's his attitude about this election. you ought to be angry about what they're doing to me. look at how angry i am. this is the phase you should wake up with every morning. this is our eye of the tiger. and this is how he's going

john bolton , former centurion of donald trump, according to our security, believes that berlin, pariseven washington are not averse to negotiating with moscow, further escalation will destroy the entire west, warns and authority. they. if at least one of the western countries sends its soldier on ukrainian soil. this will mean a direct war between the west and russia , this war will immediately become a third world war. so now is a very dangerous moment. this is absolutely obvious. not only for me, but for everyone on the street, the third world war is knocking on the door, so we ourselves should donate the last italian himself to vilnius . however, he only confirmed the course for further nazis and now the general staff will report on the results of more than 20,000 fighters trained at british training grounds and got to death sure ukrainian poor ukrainians. hundreds and thousands die every day. they will run out of soldiers earlier than russia’s russians should not underestimate russian mistakes, the hungarian prime minister believes that the west’s attempts to weaken power in russi

joining us now to discuss, john bolton, the former national security advisor for president trump.or bolton, thanks for joining us. mr. trump is about to be arraigned for his efforts to overturn the 2020 election. do you think that his behavior was criminal? >> yes, look, i think this indictment lays out a pretty strong case, particularly the most important part of it, i think, is the description of the effort to turn mike pence into an instrument of reversing the result in the electoral college. i think that's the strongest part of it. i think it was right to bring the document case. i think it's important to have both of these cases brought to trial before the election, as far in advance of the election as possible, but i want to underline what we're doing. i think it's the right thing to do, but it is a modified form of russian roulette. if trump is convicted in one or both of the federal cases, i think that will turn things upside down. i think he could be denied the republican nomination. he'd certainly lose the election. but if he is acquitted, or a hung jury results, which i

but i think the odds here are a lot of careers are ruined because of this. >> ambassador john bolton, thank you for joining us tonight. >> thank you. >> jake, back to you. >> thanks, kaitlan. it has been quite a day, donald trump's fourth arrest. he has not been arraigned in this case. the three previous arrests had arraignments on the same day. this one did not. then that way it was different from the three previous ones. also, of course, the image on the right side of your screen, the mug shot of the 45th president of the united states. it's not the only mug shot that we've seen this week that might have caused us a moment of pause. here is the man who, in 2001, was time's person of the year, former new york city mayor, rudy giuliani. that's his mug shot for his 13 counts and the indictment in fulton county, georgia. here is former white house chief of staff mark meadows. not the first white house chief of staff to ever pose for a mug shot. nixon's chief of staff, hr bob haldeman, also posed for one and ended up doing 18 months in prison. here is political operative from wisconsin,

confrontation with russia and his current interview resonates very much with the new article by john boltonformer adviser to donald trump, according to our security, believes that berlin, paris and even washington are not averse to negotiating with moscow, further escalation will destroy the entire west, warns the body. oh, if at least one of the western countries will send their soldiers to ukrainian soil. this will mean a direct war between the west and russia, this war will immediately become the third world. so now is a very dangerous moment. this is absolutely obvious and not only to me, but to anyone on the street. world war iii is knocking on the door. therefore, we must be very, very careful, and i constantly talk about this in america as the last italian vilnius himself, however, only confirmed the course towards further arming the kiev regime. they pledged to strengthen the training of ukrainian neo-nazis. and now the general staff is reporting on the results of more than 20,000 fighters who were trained at british training grounds and received the ammunition necessary at the fron

in the medical states from nato, this opinion was made by his ex- security pineapple assistant john boltonand trump does not adhere to philosophy in a political sense, he does not think about the direction of policy when making a decision. especially in the field of national security. we know that he threatened the existence of nato and i think that in trump's second term we will almost certainly leave nato former niger leader asks the us to bring him back to power his message for the ocean patron mohammed bazun passed through the newspaper in your plan post according to him, the intervention. the west will be a turning point in the history of the country from the new authorities, another look at the future of the military republic is sure that niger will finally cease to be a european colony. in power, officially dismantled military agreements with the fifth republic in the near future all french soldiers must leave the territory of the state with them to their homeland and the ambassadors of the nigers who worked in the united states of france and gira. the joint statement on ukraine, wh

well, joining us now is former united states national security adviser john bolton. re—establish . yeah, just >> re—establish. yeah, just reflect that. we also have pictures coming in from georgia where, of course , there will be where, of course, there will be the cameras and the police. i don't know if we can bring that live shot in for you. yeah, because effectively we donald trump be surrendering trump will be surrendering himself to arrest, given that the charges have already been put to him. and this time, as we've been saying, he will be having a mugshot taken. he'll have his fingerprints taken . have his fingerprints taken. that's not him. that is a cut—out . but clearly, the circus cut—out. but clearly, the circus is starting to arrive there. and of course, this does feed into the trump narrative of trying to make himself seen as the victim . i think we can speak to john once more. john we're just saying that in the political sense, of course, this feeds quite well into the trump show, if you like . if you like. >> right. i think the evidence now looking at t

earlier my colleague caitriona perry spoke to former us national security advisor john bolton on theter this news broke. thanks forjoining us, ambassador. if they can start by getting your reaction to a story that has just been breaking today, the news that five american prisoners in iran have been moved from prison to house arrest. the way houses negotiations for their eventual full release are ongoing and delicate at this time are not all of their identities have been released. but those that we do know, at least some of them would have been still in detention while you are in the white house the national security advisor. can you talk was a little bit about what might have been going on behind the scenes here.— the scenes here. we're obviously _ the scenes here. we're obviously happy - the scenes here. we're obviously happy to - the scenes here. we're obviously happy to get| obviously happy to get americans released. they never should have been detained by iranian authorities in the first place. really civilised nations don't do that. we don't know really much about what the terms

i remember trump was asked about that and he said i didn't do that, that was john bolton. apparently, they did in the head of it left. that was what happens to the plan, i don't know. because of the tax cuts that trump put in, he had each department taking at least a 5% cut in their budget if not more. the health and human the seas -- the cdc has 16 centers around the world but they got cut back to 10 and one of the centers wuhan, china, before the pandemic? and it had to shut down. it might've been a mistake in hindsight. i don't know. finally, with the response, i think it was in response to covid-19. he said he was made aware of it and decided not to tell the american public because we couldn't handle it. then he called it a democratic hoax. we kind of got off to a slow start with it and he certainly mishandled it all and you talk about distribution, i congratulate them for the warp speed vaccination, yes, wonderful job, fantastic but he had no transition team and would not work with joe biden's team because he was mad about the election. he didn't pass on anything to j

through a complete smear campaign which includes things like accusing him of trashing veterans who john bolton said he did not do too i am a retired cpa and i know about the things they said he denies tax returns. he did nothing illegal. i did stuff like that for my clients. it's a complete trashing over seven years and i think that produces the majority of people who are expressing dissatisfaction with him, thank you. guest: when it comes to the legal case, donald trump is presumed innocent. you should not go in as a republican and say he therefore is innocent. you should not go as a democrat and say therefore he is guilty. what we need to do is believe in the rule of law and behave in a legal manner. we need to look at the evidence many to look at the law we need to ask if the facts meets the law beyond reasonable doubt. if you can say that in fairness, then whether you like them or not, convict them and if you can't say that in fairness whether you like him or not, then you need to him. -- you need to acquit him. i would like to see people in leadership positions make that clear call which

i give you john bolton. >> he could have smiled. he could have looked benign. a thug. and i think it's intended to be a sign of intimidation against the prosecutors and judges. >> oh, come on. >> laura: what? >> how does expression on mugshot intimidate prosecutors. they prosecuted him? is bolton okay to pass judgment on how public figures look he looks like marty johnson from that old laugh-in show. >> laura: raymond, remember from the radio days where for years i have called bolton like the human scrubbing bubble. that's, to me, that's what he looks like, okay? the mustache. >> scrub hard so you don't have to. >> other media types decided to go after trump's stated weight and hair color and height on his fulton county paperwork. watch. >> he is listed as a white male. his hair color is listed as blond or strawberry. [laughter] and his weight is listed. >> 175. [laughter] >> 215. >> 215 is the exact dimensions of the lamar jackson of the baltimore ravens. >> it's a good -- let's just say it's a 70 or 80 pounds higher than what the staff reported. >> boy, i got

. >> john bolton says that both sides may not be supportive of sending more support in, a maybe it isbiden to lay out a deal for putin? >> it is the right time for us to continue to signal our unwavering support for president zelenskyy and the ukrainian troops who are fight sog bravely on the battlefield, and if president zelenskyy can make progress with his peace plan which has put forward a 10-point peace plan, there are several delegations who have gone to meet with putin from around the world to try to make progress. i think that our role here frankly, boris, should be for the united states to continue to lead our western partners and allies in supporting ukraine and hoping that the exhaustion that you refer to on the battlefield will lead to putin suing for a cease-fire, but in any even, we have to pursue long-term security for ukraine, so russia does not retrain, reequip and launch further offensives into ukraine, and what that looks like is something that the allies have been discussing closely with the united states and president zelenskyy to several visits here at the capitol

obstruction of justice, being a way of life in the white house according to his former special assistant john boltonn of justice we know is a federal crime, he has flooded the constitution. we are left with jack smith bringing three counts but not bringing the fourth count on insurrection. he has a huge amount of evidence . the house select committee to investigate the january 6 attack on u.s. capitol made a criminal referral to the justice department recommending prosecution of trump for assisting or aiding the january 6 insurrection. even more specifically, before that, amy, when trump was impeached the second time by the house of representatives, he was impeached for inciting insurrection. a majority of the house voted for it. it was into the senate and a majority voted in the senate 57-43, but with some republicans, i might add, but he did not reach the two thirds requirement for conviction under the constitution. so the question is, why did jack smith and merrick garland omit this? i am not sure it was jack smith. it could have been merrick garland overruling jack smith. none of them are talkin
