there is a little bit of background which is george bush first met john tower in 1961 when george bush was harris county republican chair. it was quite a big deal. john tower decided to run for lyndon johnson's senate seat in a special election once johnson left to become vice president. that's when the two of them first became friends. at this point they have been friends for almost 40 years. there was a discussion about nixon's short list for vice president for. nixon short list for vp was john and one more,bush ronald reagan. one of them have been something. former chair of the armed services committee in the senate. as was put, his love of women and booze. there was a conflict of interest in the investigation. the senate at that point was 45 republicans, 55, democrats. 40 -- 47-53. down i believe it means to democrats crossed over. due to the fact that the democrats were in the senate. the larger point to make here , george bush felt very strongly that it could go down as well as up and was tremendously loyal to john tower, despite all the flaws that were exposed. in his book he te

the comment that tucker carlson made kind of reminded me of when president bush was mocking john mccainaid i like people who weren't captured. >> that was candidate trump. >> trump. at the same time it's not just people like tucker carlson or senator kennedy. what's really bothersome is this whole litany of republicans that are buying this what fiona hill called a russia disinformation came and lindsey graham has written secretary pompeo and looking for documents to prove that. when you have seen lindsey graham move over the trump but when someone like that talking about russia as the biggest threat to the united states now taking this russian disinformation side that's really concerning. >> here is the american secretary of state for the time being. >> do you believe that the u.s. and you kraun crane should investigate that it was ukraine and not russia that hacked the dnc? >> any time there's information that indicates any country has messed with american elections we not only have a right but a duty to make sure we chase that down. >> so chase down investigating and here was the conc

and i say is not the only economic bush the government has to deal with this week global steel john also mittal announced it will begin shutting down its saldana steel plants that would put thousands out of work at the plant and in the local supply chain and in the country well employment is that 29 percent with youth unemployment at a staggering 55 percent. the clamor of steel production will soon die away at the salt on a steel plant 170 kilometers northwest of capetown it's. the world's largest steel producer and the largest on the african continent. says business is languishing in south africa and is out to cut costs threatening thousands of jobs sadhana plants workers fear for their livelihoods. and many others also stand to lose out. it's all that is still present this will make it to flee our business we were good people and this will have a big effect on the small businesses the schools all the operations even the east coast community we can't. be close we don't accept that we can really stick close to. this and we are saying come to the table a 3rd of south africa's population i

that is, and eric holder was held in contempt of congress by some democrats even and john kerry couldn't beat george w. bush hillary clinton couldn't beat donald trump. should any of these people consider getting into the race right now? >> no. i just don't think -- i think that this old school philosophy and frankly it is politics that said the middle of the road person is the only person that could galvanize america is proven to be false. all of the people that you mentioned are winners and the folks exciting the democrats are the people who principle and stand for something. >> john, i'll give you the last word in the next block because you're sitting tight. after the president humiliated jeff sessions repeatedly he's crawling into a campaign for senate by pledging fealty to his abuser. >>> and a loyal attack dog assigned just in time for impeachment inquiry next week and how will that go for democrats? i'll ask one. stick around. biopharmaceutical researchers. pursuing life-changing cures in a country that fosters innovation here, they find breakthroughs... like a way to fight cancer by arming a patient

the next judge to hear the case that charles kupperman filed and john bolton filed is a george w. bushointee. i don't know if that makes a difference in their strategy. they're clearly saying they're going to wait for this other judge to tell us whether charles kupperman and therefore john bolton should have to testify. >> one interesting thing in one of the president's tweets today, peter baker, he calls john bolton a patriot. that's the first compliment he's paid to john bolton who left with a blast on twitter at him. they've been going back and forth with bolton saying he was blocked from his personal twitter account when he left the white house, so there was a lot of tension there. but this is potentially a signal that the president is trying to make peace with john bolton, who knows a lot, peter. >> yeah, certainly he was happy with what bolton's lawyer said today. he was happy that john bolton was going to continue to abide by the white house wishes, which is that he not testify. so of course the president wants to make sure he keeps his former security adviser as happy as possib

bush administration was also a spokesperson for the john mccain and mitt romney presidential campaigns brian will sell with you what's your assessment of the teacher in hearings after day one . after day one i mean quite honestly larry i think democrats almost have all the evidence they need to impeach i mean look at this point to me the impeachment hearings themselves are just a technicality we have the president's own chief of staff on national television admitting that there was a quid pro quo we have republicans trying to claim that the president clearly said on the phone line that there was no quid pro quo which to me larry doesn't make a difference i mean if i were to walk into a gas station and rob a gas station does it matter if i say i'm not robbing your gas station of course not if the evidence is there and we know we have the evidence then that speaks for itself i think that's where we are with these hearings and i think they'll play out exactly as we expect i expect republicans to be petulant about this i expect them to be aggressive i expect them to run interference on obs

jeb bush, mitt romney and john mccain. >> for the bulwark a lot of people contribute here.nd, look, you know who they are. we all know who they are. and dhefz been very vocal and very, very willing to attack donald trump from the right. it obviously bothers him more than sort of the garden variety attacks from the left. but i do think that being a never-trumper in his world is a terrible thing. if someone is serving in government and they are not for donald trump, they are a never-trumper and that should be interchanged with the notion of treason or something. >> it's all about branding. that's what this is that they have branded anyone who is not or who has gotten in his way, who has gotten in the way of the narrative that spent to spin it off of the ukraine story, as someone who is disloyal to this country. but the only way through this is to brand anyone who's not for them aggressively as disloyal and disloyal to the president, disloyal to the country. >> unbelievable. after the break republicans seeking to unmask the whistle-blower going a step further today what they h
