>> i think that john roberts, everything you and i have ever said about john roberts, institutionalistincrementalist, incredibly aware of public opinion. i think the idea that you're going to force jean-roberts to do something bonkers in an election year that will motive women in ways that we haven't seen before, i think john roberts is aware that he can get exactly the same outcomes by just waiting until louisiana and indiana, those other states do functionally the same thing as a ban. >> i don't know. i know you know more things about this than i do, and i know you understand this better than i do. i don't know. i feel like these guys all coordinate. i feel like the pro-life movement gets these judges elected. i feel like they socialize, they strategize together at the same events. i mean, we'll see. we'll see. we'll see. i'm not going to bet you, not even a beer. okay. dahlia lithwick, great to have you here, dahlia. we'll be right back.

i know we are talking about john roberts are not the correspondent. it always freaks me out when i have an email in my inbox from john roberts. "the chief justice is emailing me?" [laughter] >> harris: what do we know about the justices on the supreme court in terms of this issue? >> shannon: they are trying to be really careful. they are all asked how they feel. it's settled precedent, all of them will say that about review wade. but there are different issues now because you think about the fact that there are cases bubbling up to them that aren't the extreme of this alabama case. there are couple of others sitting before them now. we may know next week whether they are taking them or not. there are different things like state laws that say you can't perform abortions because of down syndrome or other limits. >> kennedy: as is the case in indiana. >> shannon: right. they have other cases that may chip away in a different way, but enough is complete smack down. >> katie: i want to ask a clarifying question. is it roe v. wade really about a woman's pr

chief white house correspondent john roberts is live on the north lawn. john? >> good afternoon to you. there could be another escalation by the u.s. side. the chinese vice premier left his hotel room and headed for the airport where he will depart at 4:00 heading back to beijing. not before being told, according to sources, telling fox news, not before being told that the white house has now started the clock running on another tranche of sanctions, this it would be 25% on $325 billion of chinese goods. sources telling fox news that china has three to four weeks to make a deal or the new tariffs will go into effect. president trump accusing china of trying to renegotiate a trade deal that they agreed to at the last minute. late last week, china indicated that it was going to reverse itself on some very key components of the trade deal that it was negotiating with the united states on things like intellectual property, strong legal language in terms of enforcement and then china, according to the president, started to play the delay game on another round of tal

john roberts now from the north lawn. john, i should say within moments we're expecting to see the president at falcon stadium. he's giving the commencement speech. we'll let you take it away with mueller. >> the president is running an hour late, so that will happen 1:15 or so. certainly robert mueller yesterday injected new political momentum into this whole idea of whether or not the president committed any kind of obstruction in the russia investigation and giving more fuel to democrats that might want to go down the road for impeachment. that's why the president came out swinging so hard as he was on his way out the door of the white house, saying there was no evidence of collusion between the trump campaign and russia and insisting that mueller could not produce a fair report on the obstruction issue because of what the president said several conflicts of interest. listen here. >> he wanted the fbi job and he didn't get it. the next day he was picked as special counsel. so you tell somebody, i'm sorry. you can't hav

chief white house correspondent john roberts starts us off with an important phone call. good evening, john. >> good evening to you. president trump long complained the mueller investigation was a cloud over the u.s.-russian relations. today the president tried to get back to doing business with russia but the mueller report continued to loom large. it was the first time in weeks president trump has spoken with russian president vladimir putin, a phone call that lasted more than an hour. president trump saying they talked about the russian hoax and that putin seemed to muse by the findings of the mueller report. >> we discussed he actually sort of smiled when he said something to the effect that it started off as a mountain and it ended up being a mouse. >> house democrats are in active negotiations with robert mueller to appear before the house judiciary committee. asked whether he would like to see mueller testify, president trump said it is not up to him. >> it's up to our attorney general who i think has done a fantastic job. >> the president will decide whether to all

john roberts is at the white house with efforts to keep other countries out of venezuela's business and congress out of the presidents. steve harrigan's live in caracas with that power struggle and extending far beyond of the venezuelan border's. but we start off with chief intelligence correspondent catherine herridge on capitol hill were attorney general bill barr defended his actions and conclusions concerning them mueller report and said, enough is enough. good evening, catherine. >> good evening. officials said questions from committee stuff lawyers were a nonstarter in the attorney general would not agree to those terms. on the basis -- they said it was appropriate for him to take questions from lawmakers but not staffers. all of this late-breaking news as he attorney general faces four hours of intense questioning in the senate. >> we saw why mueller was concerned. >> senate committee democrats pressed william barr on this march 27th letter from special counsel robert mueller. >> this letter was an extraordinary act. a career prosecutor rebuking the attorney general. he was a pol

senior house correspondent john roberts, good evening, john. >> john: high hi, bret. the negotiations broke down and the president jumped in. the battle between white house and congress over access to the full mueller report and background materials turned into all-out war today when president trump assertive executive privilege denying congress every thing. >> chairman nadler is asking the attorney general of the united states to break the law and commit a crime by releasing information he knows he has no legal authority to have. speak to the white house said it was the attorney general who has to white house to invoke executive privilege. bill barr faced with increasing pressure from jarrard -- jerry nadler's judiciary committee to hand over unredacted mueller report and all of its background information. >> the attorney general is protecting information, grand jury information, confidential information that he cannot release. the fact that the chairman knows that and continues to ignore it is absolutely absurd. speed to democrats point out the white house did not c

most justices, including chief justice john roberts, seem to appreciate that principle, they've talkedist and respecting the court, respecting the precedent. but it seems like some of these nominees want to ignore that principle. and i think that is really problematic but i do think it's about abortion. they don't -- if -- they feel like it's a trap. some conservatives say if you answer the question on brown, then you have to answer the question on roe and talk about abortion. that's a weak argument, though, as was pointed out, john roberts, sam alito, brett kavanaugh, other conservative justices all answered the question on brown. there's no reason not to answer the question on brown. and any nominee to the federal court should be able to distinguish between a core principle in american democracy and stuff that is unsettled. it's like they can't tell the difference between a welcome mat and a no trespassing sign. it's easy to distinguish any nominee should be able to do so. if they can't they disqualify themselves. >> i learned a lot from this conversation. thank you, michael, thank y

some sort of timeline or this one doesn't feel like the one john roberts would pick. by the way, i don't think john roberts would pick one unless he knew he had six votes. >> i've done some reporting on this. it's much more likely instead of seeing roe in a very dramatic fashion overturned over the course of months and years you would see a steady erosion of roe through the states. how would that happen? up until now, the lower courts have largely turned back these more extreme bills but as you see in mitch mcconnell, you know, succeed in his efforts to remake the lower courts, you could see more of these laws upheld. and what you would have is essentially death by a thousand cuts to roe. and you would have a two-america situation where there would be dramatic deferences in terms of abortion access between the blue states and red states, between poor people and red states and wealthy people and red states. if their daughters get pregnant because they were raped, you would be able to fly them to new york. you would have the safe havens as abortion rights activists are

john roberts at the white house on if either side will back down. we begin with susan. >> the biggest sell off since this the start of the year. china slapping back with $60 billion tariffs on u.s. goods. u.s. companies being sold off in the session. that includes boeing with a lot of plane orders, the chinese airlines, caterpillar selling a lot of machinery. 10 to 15% of s&p 500 company revenues come from china. that is because of the limited access to sell in the chinese market. also, a reminder today from a big investor that things are still looking good in the united states. >> i would argue the psychology got too complacent. the fed will never raise rates again. they might lower it. the economy is fine and we're going to get the chinese deal. the world is never that simple. >> the main stock drag if we had to pick one on the markets, apple. china accounts for 20% of apple revenues and a supreme court ruling that says that iphone users can bring class action lawsuits against the company for their alleged monopoly on their app store. apple got ba

john roberts, is this like lindsey graham's proposal? >> no. that's dealing with the emergency that we're experiencing on the border, which is the same reason why the tsa is sending hundreds of personnel down to the border to deal with the migrants that have been coming across. we've been talking about family units in record numbers, this i. it's about border security, first of all, and then it's aboutimmigration, the green card system. so on border security, the president wants to build more wall. he wants to upgrade ports of entry so every vehicle that comes across is screened. we stop people from coming across legal port of entry. at the peace officer's memorial. the president talked about the need to secured the border. listen here. >> not one more american life should be lost because our lawmakers fail to security our borders. tremendous problem at the southern border from drugs to the wrong people being allowed to come in because of a corrupt and broken system that could be changed in 20 minutes. >> shepard: the second part of the system

because chief justice john roberts is now at the idealogical middle of this court.nthony kennedy has retired. he was the centrist conservative who both in 1992 and as recently as 2016, cast the decisive vote to uphold abortion rights. now, we have the chief in that spot. and the chief has voted before against abortion rights. and he's voted to uphold strict regulations. but he also has this great regard for the stature of the court and what people see in the court. and i think justice breyer yesterday was also talking to chief justice john roberts. >> no one knows roberts better than you. thanks very muff. >> just moments from now, secretary of state mike pompeo and the russian president vladimir putin will meet face-to-face as tensions over iran grow. a whole host of issues. we'll be on top of all the breaking details. i didn't have to run for help. i didn't have to call 911. and i didn't have to come get you. because you didn't have another heart attack. not today. you took our conversation about your chronic coronary artery disease to heart. even with a stent pro

thanks, john roberts. >> thanks, leland. >> going back to osaka.s not stopped the president from taking aim at the democrats. the president tweeting impeach for what? having to greatest economy in american history, rebuilding our military, taking care of our vets, judges, best job numbers and more. dems are obstructionists. ellison barber has more. hi, ellison. >> in capitol hill, a little further down from the white house, but same city, the president is ignoring that old adage that politics stops at the water's edge. the president accused democrats of being obstructionists railing against talk of impeachment and what he sees as a democratic obsession with the russia probe and a desire for a do-over. some lawmakers have signalled their support for impeachment. they, all but one, are democrats and not able to convince nancy pelosi to start impeachment proceedings. representative rasheeda talib, an early advocate removing president trump from office, submitted an impeachment resolution in march. it had one co sponsor then. five more signed on in apr

john roberts leads off our coverage. >> good morning from tokyo.sident trump and the japanese prime minister have a close friendship. sometimes they disagree. that was front and center as the president went to japan for an official visit. it was highlighted by pomp and ceremony. president trump the first international leader to meet with japan's new emperor. it was a visit marked by contrast. >> no, i am not. >> president trump was not concerned by north korea's actions, calling them small weapons. at a new conference with japan's prime-time brushing aside any significance. >> my people think it was a violation. i view it as a man that wants to get attention and perhaps not. who knows? it didn't matter. >> the president's position stood in sharp contrast to his national security advisor john bolton and the prime minister who said it was a clear provocation. >> this violated the security council resolution. >> in the same tweet, president trump also quoted kim jong-un's dig at 2012 joe biden where kim called him a low iq individual. mirroring langua

john roberts reporting live at the white house. john? >> they haven't made that decision whether or not mcgahn will testify. more on that? just a second. first of all, the documents and other subpoena fights. 10:00 a.m. was supposed to be the deadline for don mcgahn to produce documents that was subpoenaed by gerald nadler. instead, when nadler got, a letter from the white house counsel saying -- >> in other words, you ain't going to get them. counsel instructed nadler to take any further request for documents to the white house. nadler's attorney writes -- >> there's no sign that that is anywhere near happening. in the senate today, the majority leader mitch mcconnell said it's time to move passed the mueller report. not so fast said nancy pelosi. listen here. >> they told everywhere there was a conspiracy between russia and the trump campaign. yet on this central question, the special counsel's finding is clear. case closed. case closed. >> senator mcconnell is reported to be saying, doesn't matter here, case closed. case closed. i don

john roberts reporting live. >> good afternoon. the statement that robert mueller made ups the political stakes here and adds a lot of fuel to the ever increasing fire among democrats in congress to begin impeachment proceedings against the president as he was heading out the white house door on his way to the air force academy. the president both embraced the findings of the mueller report on collusion and then as you mentioned, sought to completely discredit robert mueller and his team. listen to what the president said. >> i think he's a total conflicted person. i think mueller is a never trumper. he's somebody that dislikes donald trump. he is somebody that didn't get a job that he wanted very badly and then he was appointed. despite that, despite $40 million, 18 trump haters, including people that worked for hillary clinton and some of the worst human beings on earth, they got nothing. it's pretty amazing. >> now, the department of justice found that the conflicts that mueller had were not significant enough to keep him from se

first here's john roberts live on the north lawn. john? >> good afternoon, shep. the president is presenting this as all good. still maintaining there's a chance for china to get a deal saying china wants a deal. the president with the big announcement this afternoon in the oval office saying that he has not yet decided whether to go ahead with the final tranche of tariffs on $325 billion worth of goods made in china. that would have been his biggest stick yet. the chinese coming back with retaliation. the president in the oval office the prime minister of hungary saying i didn't have a choice. listen here. >> we had a deal with china. it was 95% there. my refs, as you know, secretary mnuchin and bob lighthizer, they went to china and they were told the things that were fully agreed to were not going to get anymore. they're going to unagree to them. that's not acceptable. >> so china now in retaliation targeting $60 billion in goods, 20, 25%. some of those include sugar, fish oil, shelled peanuts, fruit juices, peas, wood products and self-tapping screws. china ba

john roberts, thank you. reaction from the democratic leadership, mike emanuel is on capitol hill. schumer and pelosi left the white house, went straight microphone. >> reporter: no doubt about it, dana. good afternoon. speaker nancy pelosi continues talking about that infrastructure meeting which abankruptly conned. people ask her if she's surprised and she said nobody should ever be surprised about what happens here. >> there's so many needs. we thought we had some level of agreement. but you never know with this president of the united states. so that's what happened this morning. it was very, very, very strange. >> reporter: chuck shumer accused president trump of coming up with a preplanned excuse when he couldn't figure out how to pay for # $2 trillion worth of infrastructure. >> we were interested, we are interested in doing infrastructure. it is clear the president isn't. he is looking for every excuse, whether it was let's do trade first or whether it was he's not going to pay for any funding or whet

first to john roberts reporting live on the north lawn. john? >> trace, good afternoon to you. president trump was clearly incensed after the house speaker, nancy pelosi, accused him literally 50 minutes before she was to meet with him in the cabinet room of engaging in a cover-up. the president could have cancelled the meeting but instead of doing that, he brought the democratic leadership over to the white house, sat them down in the cabinet room and as they were sitting there expecting him to come in and talk about infrastructure, instead he walked in through the door that leads to the oval office and let them have it. >> i walk in to look at people that just said that i was doing a cover-up. i don't do cover-ups. i walked in to the room and i told senator schumer, speaker pelosi, i want to do infrastructure. i want to do it more than you want to do it. i'd be really good at that. that's what i do. but you know what? you can't do it under these circumstances. so get these phony investigations over with. >> after saying that, sources say the president turned on his heel and w

john roberts reporting live from the white house. john? >> shep, good afternoon to you. this has been going on for some time now. when donald trump jr. first did an interview with the staff members of the senate select committee on intelligence in december of 2017, he agreed to stay as long as they wanted him to state, which amounted to nine hours to answer questions with the understanding that it would be a one and done-type of a fair, that he wouldn't have to come back. multiple sources tell us that recently the committee invited donald trump jr. back to answer more questions. according to a source close to trump jr., he tried to make an accommodation with the committee offering written information, even saying that he would consider coming back in person for an hour or two if the follow up questions were limited to select topics. the committee we're told wanted an open-ended time commitment and had some 10 to 12 topics to cover, including trump tower meeting back in 2016 in the summer and the trump tower moscow project. both topics had been explored by the committee a

john roberts reporting live in what is now early morning in tokyo. john?n is just breaking here in tokyo. the president will be heading home after a couple more events today. we'll tell you about it. the three big items on the agenda in his bilateral meetings were trade and north korea. a real split on how the president use the short range missiles and shinzo abe and john bolton see the launches. bolton and abe say they're a clear violation of the u.n. security council resolutions. president trump is playing down the launches in a tweet and saying they're "small weapons". here's what he said in a news conference this morning in new york time. >> my people think it could have been a violation, as you know. i view it differently. perhaps he wants to get attention. perhaps not. who knows. it doesn't matter. all i know is that there's been no nuclear tests, no ballistic missiles going out no, long range missiles. i think that some day we'll have a deal. i'm not in a rush. tremendous sanctions being on the country of north korea. >> the president is positive th

chief white house correspondent john roberts tonight live from the north lawn very good evening, john. >> bret, good evening to you. what happens in the next 24 hours could be the difference between a new trade relationship between united states and china and an all-out trade war. the chinese vice premier arriving for what may be a decisive round the trade talks between the u.s. and china. president trump saying that his threat of tariffs lit a fire under a chinese, who had been dragging their feet. >> they up the meeting that was supposed to take place on thursday. five weeks ago they said, how about friday, next week -- i said, what's this all about? >> over the weekend, china said it was reversing course and several core principles it agreed to, including intellectual property and binding legal language, which for president trump was unacceptable. >> whether it's intellectual property -- they took many, many parts of that deal and renegotiated. you can do that. >> the president remains hopeful that the two countries can reach a deal, revealing he got a beautiful letter from preside

first, we go to john roberts reporting live at the white house. explain what you heard from the president that is new. >> ed, good afternoon. we knew all of the plan yesterday. the president reiterating it today and pointing out it's opinion more than a censuturcen since the last time 20 immigration is system was overhauled. he was envious of the canadian system. he said that's something i want for america. so after months of deliberation, the president unveiled his new plan. it was shift it from family based to skills based and employment based. 12% of people come into the country based on employment or skills. the president wants to increase that to 57%. family-based immigration is currently 66%. the president wants to cut that in half to 33%. 10% would be based on humanitarian or other needs. a sharp note here, he wants to end the visa lottery program. he talked about a build america visa that would recognize people with professional and specialized vocations and exceptional students. he talked about a point system being adopted that would give

john roberts at the white house with a closer look at the administration to defy committee requests. we start off with doug mckelway on capitol hill and what democrats and the house are doing about all of this. >> house speaker nancy pelosi announced this afternoon that she will call a special meeting of the house democrats tomorrow at 9:00 a.m. to discuss the possible impeachment proceedings against the president of the united states. it's a clear sign that she is feeling some pressure from her colleagues. >> there were two no-shows today, don mcgann and no bucket of kentucky fried chicken. the latter, a sign that democrats may have dispensed with humor and turned to anger. >> i see a lot more people saying that the offense occurred. >> is the house leadership among them? jim clyburn was still noncommittal today. >> there is no need to do anything that might turn out to be stupid. >> he used his strongest language yet telling reporters it's the longest, broadest cover-up in u.s. history. though she denied feeling pressure last night. a tipping point may have been reached with don mc

first john roberts at the white house. >> the markets at first blush do see to be a little more optimistic about what the president said today and yesterday regarding tried with china and whether or not there will be a prolonged war or a deal. the president pointed out maybe down playing the situation a little bit, calling it a little squabble. still confident that the united states and china will be able to reach a new trade deal that will be beneficial to the united states. listen here. >> we have a very good dialogue. we have a dialogue going. we had a deal that was very close and they broke it. they really did. >> what the president is talking ant there, two weeks ago looked like the u.s. and china were close to a deal. when robert lighthizer and steve mnuchin went to beijing to meet with the deputy premier, they were told that china changed their mind on a number of core issues, including binding legal language and intellectual theft. and the chinese media called president trump money hungry. >> china does not want to find a trade war but does not want fight it. we don't succumb to ex

. >> harris: john roberts from the north lawn. in the south we call that a bless your heart, john. >> reporter: yes. anybody from the south knows what you're talking about, harris. we've seen a lot here at the white house. even by white house standards, this was wild, reminiscent somewhat of what happened here january 9th when the president walked out of a meeting with nancy pelosi and chuck shumer in the situation room. the president believed they were going to have a meeting on infrastructure. hoping to try to figure out a way to pay $2 trillion for infrastructure renewal. when nancy pelosi came out this morning and said what she said about the president engaging in a cover-up, the president outloud -- first, he knew there was going to be no possibility for an infrastructure meeting but he allowed them to come over to the white house and then gave them a piece of his mind. listen to what the president said. >> i walked into the room and i told senator schumer, speaker pelosi, i want to do infrastructure. i want to do it more than

at the white house, john roberts, fox news. lou: and turning now to our first guest, alex vogel. the ceo of the vogel group, former chief counsel, the senate majority leader bill frist, the national republican senatorial committee and former deputy counsel for the republican national committee. alex, first of all, good to have you with us. this is quite a spectacle to the whole nadler, cohen, on the judiciary committee, talking about lying. they are the ones who have been lying for two and a half years, attacking this president, lying to the american people, day in and day out, non-stop. what a spectacle to watch today. your reaction? >> it really was incredibly unfortunate. the ranking member was right when he said they really denied both the minority in the committee and the american people a legitimate opportunity to hear from the attorney general who frankly has done both in his senate testimony and i believe in his correct refusal to come in front of the house today has done an admiral job defending the constitutional prerogatives of the executive branch and importantly the

do you think john roberts and these guys -- >> not at all. >>ra laura: the four liberals would say that? i'm worried about that. >> remember, john roberts presides over the trial in the senate. the first motion i would make is to the chief justice, saying that this impeachment has to be dismissed because it doesn't follow the terms of the constitution. it's not a political question. when you are asking justices of the supreme court, it goes back to marbury versus madison. when congress acts in violation of the constitution, the supreme court is the ultimate arbiter. >> laura: both of you are phenomenal to try and analyze ethis tonight. thank you so much. >> thank you, governor, for your kind words. >> laura: is the left's push for abolishing the electoral college a push to punish smaller states, rule america? can't miss angle is next. and then i'm going to debate one of the plan proponents. going td one of the plan moving is hard. no kidding. but moving your internet and tv? that's easy. easy?! easy? easy. because now xfinity lets you transfe

john roberts, thank you. republican congressman tom mcclintock, i understand you were at today's hearing. i'm anxious to get a report from you. >> i think the whole thing is silly. president, pretty much every president since harry truman have directed and the courts have backed them every single time there is a reason for that. executive legislative branches are independent, separate and co-equal. let's put the shoe on the other foot, for example. could president trump compel jerry nadler general counsel to come to the white house and testify under oath to his discussion with jerry nadler? of course not. neither can jerry nadler compel the president's general counsel to do so. >> harris: i don't think i'm misreading, there seems to be undercurrent the president is doing something wrong by or untrue by telling people not to testify or be compelled by subpoenas. is he? >> no. in fact, the congress actually subpoenaed harry truman to appear after he left office and he refused and the courts backed him up. this
