it's the only duty of the chief justice that's mentioned in the constitution, so john roberts, if ito an impeachment trial of president donald trump will cross the street, come over, probably be all business and try to follow his mentors role in presiding in efficient, smooth, noncontroversial manner over the senate trial. >> thank you so much for all of that. >>> coming up next, i will talk to a republican strategist who says his party deserves what it gets if it doesn't stand up to president trump now. you will hear his case for impeachment. as a cio, you want to move your business forward. but when your team is always dealing with device setups, app updates, and support calls... you can never seem to get anywhere. that's why dell technologies created unified workspace, powered by vmware. ♪ a revolutionary solution that lets you deploy, manage, support and secure all your devices from the cloud. so you can stop going in circles, and start moving forward. at aetna, we find that inspiring.ot game. but to stay on top of your game takes a plan. that's why aetna takes a total approach t

john roberts at the white house. john what have you learned? >> i love the rhyme there, shep. what happened here and who you believe is probably going to remain a he said he said type of things. what you believe really will in the end depend on who you believe. there's no question, john bolton had an interesting 17 months tenure here at the white house. the president wanted to bring him on board. he liked his tough talk. he appreciated his policies but almost throughout his entire tenure, there was serious disagreement over afghanistan, iran, russia, venezuela. a source close to bolton said it was inevitable the biggest agreements would be so great that the relationship would come to an end. all of that came to a head last night. bolton and the president having a meeting and discussing afghanistan. bolton opposed the idea of the meeting with the taliban and did not agree with the peace plan that was negotiated. during the disagreement, bolton offered his resignation. he said in a tweet that the president said let's talk about it tomorrow. i was told by a source close to bolton

john roberts is live at the white house. john?porter: i'll tell you, this is going on for a long long time now. the manhattan district attorney is just the latest trying to get his hands on the president's tax returns. he subpoenaed for eight years of president's tax returns. and now the president going to court to try to block the release of these tax returns. they are arguing to this court that the subpoenas from the manhattan d.a.'s office amount to a criminal investigation of the president and, therefore, contravene that a president cannot face criminal charges. because the subpoena attempts to criminally investigate a sitting president, it is unconstitutional. this court should declare it invalid and enjoy its enforcement until the president is no longer in office. the manhattan district attorney is not saying much about this today. quote, we have received the plaintiff's complaint and will reply to it in court. we will have no further comment as this process unfolds in court. they were contacted by fox news and it is stickin

john roberts at the white house with more, hey, john roberts. >> i thought you were going to say johnte house. >> neil: that would be interesting. >> that would be interesting no question about that. something has bubbled up and this has come from advisors who called the white house to say this is something that should happen. also people that should work at the white house who say they should happen. and that is, like henry kissinger between 1973 and 1975, mike pompeo should not would be the secretary of state but also take on the role of national security advisor as well. that was something that richard nixon did with kissinger, but when gerald ford took over from nixon, he removed the title of national security advisor from kissinger and just headed to the secretary of state. could mike pompeo do the job? absolutely no question about it because he runs a lot of the national security council meetings anyways. in some ways, i'm told, john bolton more of a liaison between the council and the president. and then a strong national security of advisor. in fact, bolton had been kept out o

john roberts was at the white house listening with us. n, as chris rawlins over the weekend, who thought it was a good idea to bring head of terrorist organization to camp david three days before the commemoration of 9/11? >> president trump thought it was a good idea. and he thought it was a good idea because last week the former u.s. ambassador to afghanistan said that they were very close to putting a deal together. the president thought it would be a good idea. he said not at the white house, but to go to camp david where there had been "some very bad people have brought up they were to do a negotiation for the taliban with f danny president and afghanistan to pull this thing across the finish line." but the president thought was a good idea quickly became a bad idea after the taliban claimed responsibility for that suicide car bomb attack near the u.s. embassy in kabul that killed american service member and native soldier and ten other people. i can tell you there was a difference in of opinion within the administration as to whether

john roberts is live from the white house. a mea culpa at minimum. >> yeah, what you saw there is a reflection of his personality. i grew up in canada. his father was prime minister when i was a young boy. he is, as you've seen other politicians, they try to explain it, rationalize it, some people try to deny it. he's trying to absorb all of the blame, all of the shock on himself to say i'm saying that i'm very sorry about this, i didn't know, i was a child of privilege. with privilege comes a blind spot. forgive me and go on. it's important that canadians do forgive him. october 21, there is an election. as you pointed out, the race is tight and has the conservative party at 35%. the liberal party at 34%. unlike here in the united states where we vote for the president, the leader of the party that wins the most seats in parliament becomes the prime minister. so trudeau was seen above andrew sheerer ago the better leader. whether this changes that remains to be seen. this may be something that he can weather and maybe somethi

back with john roberts and martha maccallum here.tha, one of the things that we are going to be watching is where these democrats who just won in 2018 and districts that donald trump carried in 2016, where they will come down on this process? a lot of them have been reticent to jump off the cliff. >> martha: and those are exactly the people who are going to be -- why we look at some of these polls. i also think about senator dick durbin who just last week, when the idea of impeaching brett kavanaugh came up, said all right already. we kick off the president, and since he said that this new issue of the ukraine may come up. he sees this as a serious valid grounds for impeachment that may come up. those members in the districts may perhaps take some very difficult votes and that's why nancy pelosi has been so hesitant all through the mueller. to move forward on this. the report that president trump has gone over to president president trumps towers perhaps to watch this moment as it unfolds, moments from now. and also the senate has no

[laughter] mr. president, thank you very much. >> one thing we should point out, shep, is that the phone call on july 25th between the presidents was the second time that they had spoken. they spoke earlier in the year after zelensky won the office of the presidency which has now led to calls from some circles that if we saw the transcript of the july 25 call, couldn't we also see the transcript of the first call because that may have been a precursor to the conversat

first, john roberts of the white house with more. >> this was something that's been bubbling around for a whil while. i was informed yesterday by confidential sources that look like bolton was probably on the way out. today it happens, we got his resignation letter in his typically unvarnished fashion. "i hereby resign effective immediately as assistant to the president for national security affairs. they give are having afforded me this opportunity to serve our country." there've been disagreements between bolton and the president through most of bolton's tenure, things like afghanistan, iran, north korea, russian interference in the american election, venezuela and more. a source told me "at some point it becomes inevitable that the relationship had to end. bolton's approach was to provide national security advice based on a coherent philosophy and that it was difficult to carry that out in this white house but it was the white house who says bolton was out of step. listen. >> last night to the president of the united states asked john bolton to tender his resignation and it was given

john roberts is live at the white house. four days later, why is he still doing this?p, this is one of those things that probably as you mentioned earlier could have been dispatched with. instead, it's become more and more convoluted. he showed a graphic from august 28. let's go to the day that the president issued the tweet. here's the 8:00 a.m. advisory. the forecast track from the national hurricane center on sunday, september 1. you can see hurricane dorian forecast to stay well offshore. let's go back three hours earlier than that. this is the 5:00 a.m. advisory. again, it has the track of dorian staying well away from alabama. yet, at 10:51 that very same morning, the president tweeted that alabama was at risk of damage from dorian. he pointed out at the fema briefing later on, he said that as well. yesterday after being briefed on the hurricane, the president held up the projected hurricane track from friday that had been expanded with a pen to include the panhandle and southeastern alabama. white house officials told me a little while ago that what had happened

that's where we find john roberts, who has more. >> reporter: good afternoon, ed. welcome back, by the way. the president did not address the whistle blower in that east room, however, he did talk about it in the oval office pool spray along with scott morrison. the president dismissed the complain, saying that while he didn't know who it was or what the complaint was about, that person is a partisan. listen here. >> it's ridiculous. it's a partisan whistle blower. shouldn't even have information. i had conversations with many leaders. they're always appropriate. anything i do, i fight for this country. i fight so strongly for this country. it's just another political hack job. that's all it is. >> reporter: in a report this morning, "the washington post" said the complaint centers around ukraine and promises the president made to a foreign leader during a phone call. well, we do not know what phone call the whistle blower is referring to. the president did talk with the new ukrainian president on july 25th. that was 2 1/2 weeks before the complain was filed on aug

first chief white house correspondent john roberts reporting live from the white house and it seems like with the first lady gets involved, things were all. >> things happen quickly, that tweet was put out on monday and then we get the announcement from the president that vaping industry as you can imagine imposes this idea of banning flavored tobacco other than tobacco flavors, doesn't -- does support a measure of mitch mcconnell is looking at the would raise the age for buying cigarettes and other e-cigarette technologies from 18 to 21. thinking you can still allow people who are 21 years of age to have these flavored vaping products. the white house believes that its bubblegum and candy flavors that really are an attraction for young people, and that's why the centers were d's disease control found there's an epidemic of vaping by young people. the main goal breaking the cycle about lifelong nicotine addiction but the president referencing the illnesses in the deaths that appear to be related to vaping. >> people are dying from vaping, so are looking at a very closely and if nothing e

john roberts, why is that?hese. >> well, you know, the president likes to reserve them for extra special people. these go back to 1874 when president grant threw the first state dinner for the king of hawaii. barack obama and george w. bush has had four state dinners by now. bill clinton had them like happy miles. he had 21, a total of 52 for his entire administration. the only other one was the bromance with emmanuel macron. he wanted to show him how special the relationship was and brought him and his wife over for a state visit and a state dinner. there's been some rocky road since then. still, the two leaders insist their relationship is on a strong footing. this overture to australia now is really to renew the relationship between the united states and australia. president trump didn't exactly get along with the former prime minister malcolm turnbull. but he's like this with scott morrison. because australia is a huge player in the endo pacific region, he wants to make sure the relationship is some lid whe

john roberts, thank you very much. i want to bring a new york republican congressman pete king of the house homeland security committee. great see you today. i want to start with this national security question, you for the speaker talking about . this is a matter of national security. have you had the opportunity to read the transcript? >> oh, yes, absolutely. >> harris: it's only pages long. that portion of the conversation, that you can highlight, you hear rudy giuliani's name probably mention more than anyone else. as you look at this, are you seeing that claim, that serious claim by pelosi and others, that this was a matter of national security? >> there is nothing involving national security and there's nothing that's even remotely impeachable. you mentioned rudy giuliani's name. rudy giuliani's name is brought up by the president of ukraine, not president trump. president trump is talking about the investigation by the justice department into the genesis of the 2016 election investigation, which has nothing to d

fox news chief white house correspondent, john roberts. he is live with the very latest from the white house tonight. john. >> john: good evening to you. a lot still going on. confirm to fox news that the white house released the whistle-blower complaint as soon as i possibly can, as soon as it's legally possible to do it. it is not legally possible to do, but the white house things that things might have changed. the whistle-blower has informed the director of national intelligence that he or she wants to before congress. it has nothing to hide and there is no wrongdoing. meanwhile, democrats opening that formal impeachment inquiry before even seeing the whistle-blower complaint or the transcript that's been called between president trump and the ukrainian president, zelensky. he believes that when that transcript comes out, the democratic case is going to fall totally apart. here's what he said earlier today when he was meeting with the president of iraq. >> president trump: so the country is doing the best it's ever done and i've just he

>> he sees john roberts on fox telling the truth about trump being wrong about this. lls him into the oval office apparently to tell roberts, i'm not wrong. i'm right. here's how i know i'm right. an incredible example of this trump tv feedback loop and how damaging it is to the white house, to the president. the president actually by his obsession with television, it actually gets him into trouble in cases like this where we're spending days talking about him being wrong about an emergent situation. he's trying to show charts and graphs to prove he was right. he's throwing up all this misinformation to try to confuse people. i think the challenge for our viewers is refuse to be confused. this is very simple. he was wrong then. he's wrong now. he's trying to confuse everybody now and make you believe there is no such thing as truth. he's trying too destroy a shared truth here. >> thank you all. i got to go. can you do it in five seconds, juliette? >> just very quickly there's going to be another hurricane, and he has denigrated the entire homeland security apparatus at

first john roberts at the white house and what to expect from the president tonight. y, john. >> you can expect a big rally, no question about that in that in fayetteville which really is trump territory very heavily military town. but there is some debate, actually, neil, whether this is the last election of the 2,018th cycle or if this is the first election of the 2020 cycle. this is a do over in north cow dome at carolina after nolan void after the original republican candidates in the illegal voting scheme. dan mccready, the democrats lost by 905 votes in the first election and the district of president trump one by 12 points. dan mccready facing north carolina the ambition at the end of august. a small lead, but the president has been pulling out all the stops to try to push bishop over the top, the big rally tonight ahead of that, the department of white house this afternoon. the president said this about fisher. >> president trump: the bishop is a great gentleman, a great man, and i think you will be a great congressman. it was a very close race. i think it is g

>> dana: john roberts is our chief white house correspondent. what do you know about this? good to have you here. >> reporter: i just know this is sauflly familiar except you were behind a podium. >> dana: i had defenses. i don't need any defenses here. what's going on? >> reporter: what's interesting is to see what's happened over the course of the last few day. at the beginning of this development, looked like the president was knocked back on his heels a little bit. he said something very telling at the white house. said keep climbing to the press because the higher you climb on this story, the further you're going to fall, which was an indication that there's something here that maybe less than what it appears at the beginning. the president did seem to be sort of scrambling to respond to it. now he's trying to flip the script to say my phone call was perfectly fine, above board, because we were talking about corruption. joe and hunter biden came up in the context of corruption. the president was asked was he worried at all about peaimpeac t impeachment? he said, nope,
