and we also have a breaking news report from john solomon showing real evidence 2016 campaign collusion all surrounding the campaign of hillary clinton. just like democrats only believe if it is a republican. they only believe that they can bludgeon trump. whatever happened to the serious allegations of rape and sexual assault, violent assault against women by lieutenant governor of virginia? that you don't hear a thing, nothing, crickets. also alec baldwin right now has gone to a whole 'nother level. we will explain. first we start in chicago.hi two weeks after giving actor jussie smollett a pass, kim foxx is facing a wave of criticism. democratic mayor ron rombough dead fish called it a whitewash of justice. the chicago police superintendent eddie johnson called it a fiasco. many others calling on foxx to resign immediately, but over the weekend foxx is suggesting any criticism of her could be rooted in racism. watch this. >> the efforts that i've had on criminal justice reform that were once celebrated by many in this county, that are now being attacked because of one case and one ce

john solomon, thank you for that report. we will ask the president for his reaction in a few minutes. now, beyond biden's shady international dealings, he faces an uphill climb and already doing everything he can do to try and cozy up to the far left of his party. look at his rollout video. >> i believe history will look back on four years of this president and all he embraces as an aberrant moment in time if we give donald trump eight years in the white house he will forever and fundamentally alter the character of this nation, who we are and i can not stand by and watch that happen. >> sean: here we are? record low unemployment for african-americans, hispanic americans, asian americans, women in the workplace and oh and youth unemployment. we have literally wage growth, stagnant for 10 years, really? now it's back better stronger than ever. that's hateful? that's bad for america? i don't think the american people think so. despite biden's attempts to appease this far left radical socialist base of the democratic party, wel

here with mort john solomon i will let you bring everyone up to speed, there is evidence here just like there was no hillary paid for, the phony russian dossier influence. that part of the election as well. >> john: that is right commission on ukrainian authority said since last year trying to get this evidence and the trump justice department an. first the embassy where they wouldn't give them visa to come to the united states to deliver in person. then hired a former u.s. attorney from the bush era and asked to bring southern district of new york. never heard back after the made the offer of the evidence. more recently, looking for american lawyers to possibly buy a lawsuit to recover the money they believe stolen and trump democratic schemes. what is the evidence they are talking about russian mark pretty remarkable. two affidavits were ukrainian law enforcement saying yes, we did try to tip 2016 election in favor of hillary clinton. they have a tape recording of the head of naboo, there fbi in ukraine, corruption police acknowledging he tried to help clinton by leaking the paul mana

joining us now to explain is "the hill"'s john solomon. john, this is huge. >> yeah, it is. it's the first instance obama white house very early as donald trump is rising early getting involved. what happened was, the obama white house, the national security council, invitedit all ukraine authorities, the prosecutors, anticorruption investigators, held a meeting in january 2016, just before the beginning of the primaries and said, listen, we would like to find some new way to reinvigorate an old case, a case called thee party of reasons case. the case where there was money being paid to lobbyists like paul manafort and greg craig. they asked, could you help us get restarted. set in motion this mad scramble in ukraine. ultimately results in the discovery of a ledger, which gets leaked with only paul manafort and left greg craig out and that starts the whole russian collusion case.ol what you have is the beginning of the russian collusion narrative starting in the obama white house. >> sean: all right. john, i thought we were going back to -- let me ask you this. we showed the

mark: sarah carter john solomon i look at it this way.united states was a victim of an outrageous scandal. and he is investigated as the perpetrator. now it's time to find out who the perpetrators are. is our government prepared to do that? . >> they have to be. they have to be prepared to do that. i would also agree on that point prior to getting elected if somebody likes them or not that's not the point. >> so based politically he was the target of a group of people that were intent to take him out or impeach them to ensure he was not elected. every time he tried to defend himself come every time he opened his mouth or sent out a tweet or out of frustration because he is the targe target, look, now we will just accuse him of obstructing. he couldn't even defend himself. there is something wrong with that. that's up to the department of justice to investigate. . >> that there was for an intrusion into the election and we are beginning to have evidence that the people love ukraine were collaborating to use their official powers that is an

mark: sarah carter and john solomon, what did obama know? was a lot of information that is late by the department of justice and others hillary clinton and the dossier at the senior levels of the fbi senior levels of intelligence agencies the president gets a national intelligence briefing twice a day i happen to know as chief of staff attorney general if we have a pfizer application the attorney general would take it to the president there is a political aspect to it is barack obama the only human being who did not know anything? been a great question. i would like to see a long in-depth interview along with hillary clinton to answer the questions. it is unequivocal what did barack obama know? was he briefed on the fisa? why wasn't he interested in russian collusion before the election? how much did you know, about the operation? what was going on? were your brief did you get help from a foreign government when you were secretary of state with foreigners helping your campaign? those are questions that were never asked and i hope they will b

joining me now with some exclusively new reporting for us is john solomon, executive vice president for hill. all right, john, you say you haven't seen anything like this in your entire reporting career. okay, explain that. >> well, seldom seen something like this i think is what i actually said. here's why. the title of my column basically says if you don't indict, you can't incite. the justice department rules derived from our constitution says if a prosecutor cannot bring charges in a federal court, they can't block it in the court of public opinion and try to smear you. that's what last night's leak was, disgruntled mueller sycophants trying to smear the president. it really gets to the political nature of what's been going on. when the mueller people wrote the report, they wrote these campaign summaries that could be released instantly to the public. that's not what they're supposed to do. there's law enforcement information here, grand jury information. we can't release this. they've been doing the diligent thing. what sort of prosecutors create a final report that looks more like

john solomon is with us. the prosecutor that he demanded get fired or he will not give them a billion dollars and they got six hours to make a decision and he is on tape as you just heard bragging. hold on i have to fix my tie. he has bragging how he got the guy fired, who is the prosecutor investigating in that moment? >> that very moment they told me they were preparing to request an interview with hunter biden to question him about more than $3 million of funds that were being taken out of ukraine when they vice president the vice president intervened in the prosecutor got fired and move the case out of the prosecutor's office to another agency and they shut it down. it was never to be investigated again. >> sean: 's son was being investigated, do we know how much money? i understand his son was on the air force two. >> that is a different trip, he did some great work. i think it was in 2014 where hunter biden went on the same trip with his dad and walked away with a big payday. there is a pattern here of

john solomon, sara carter, congressman mark meadows coming up on this issue. but first we turn our attention to the radical socialist democratic party. heading into the 2020 election crazy bernie on there tonight. that was hard to watch my bernie sanders, wow, g come every communist idea we possibly can. the left must be held accountable pushing, this two and a half year device hoax into the president of the united states but more importantly this cannot happen again. they must be held accountable for some of the most radical elements of the democratic party and media including congresswoman omar. since sworn into office, omar at the of controversy surrounding her very anti-semitic remarks and more recently facing a wave of criticism for minimizing the 9/11 attacks on this country that took nearly 3,000's of our friends, our fellow citizens, or neighbors. she called it some people that did something. watch this. >> cair was founded after 9/11 and they recognize that some people did something and all of us were to lose access to civil liberties. >> sean: anothe

of course donald trump says that's not his deal. >> martha: john solomon thank you very much, richardtein, thanks. still ahead on "the story." trey gowdy's first response on the report that came out today. drivers just wont put their phones down. we need a solution. introducing... smartdogs. the first dogs trained to train humans. stopping drivers from: liking. selfie-ing. and whatever this is. available to the public... never. smartdogs are not the answer. but geico has a simple tip. turn on "do not disturb while driving" mode. brought to you by geico. i felt i couldn't be at my best wifor my family. c, in only 8 weeks with mavyret, i was cured and left those doubts behind. i faced reminders of my hep c every day. but in only 8 weeks with mavyret, i was cured. even hanging with friends i worried about my hep c. but in only 8 weeks with mavyret, i was cured. mavyret is the only 8-week cure for all common types of hep c. before starting mavyret your doctor will test if you've had hepatitis b which may flare up and cause serious liver problems during and after treatment. tell your docto

what the hill's john solomon is calling the single sentence russia bombshell that barr delivered to think congress today that few in the media picked up on. -- this is crucial. >> the office of the inspector general has a pending investigation of the fisa process in the russia investigation. i expect that will be complete in probably may or june i am told. generally, i am reviewing the conduct of the investigation. and trying to get my arms around all of the aspects of the counter intelligence investigation conducted during the summer of 2016. >> sean: and barr will form a team to review the fbi's action during the phoney collusion probe. deep state actors will be held accountable. congressman nunes is preparing refersals and mark meadows said more on the way because of evidence of abuse of pour in the doj and the fbi. we will be getting the inspector general's report as the attorney general just mentioned and the fisa applications against carter page and the results of the fisa investigation in the senate. at some point, we will also be getting the report into leaks by john hoover and th

gregg jarrett and investigative reporter and he writes for the hill john solomon. all three of you deserve what the "new york times" and "the washington post" received in terms of your hard work and your coverage and without your digging and sources and everything in between i don't think we would be where we are today. i applaud all of you for your hard work. start with you. let's talk about hillary. look at this. >> she has got to be the most clueless person in america. she has the audacity to accuses attorney general and deputy of getting it wrong on obstruction and accusing trump of obstructing justice when she is really the symbol of obstruction straight out of the statute not one but two of the five provisions concealing evidence and destroying documents. she writes this op-ed telling everybody she is an theater oauthority on impeachmed cites her husband's own impeachment. i will tell you what's going on here. hillary clinton cannot stand that she is not the center of attention. i mean, it's like crack cocaine for her. power always gave her attention. she can

john solomon. let me start with you and especially want to go over the media and i know professor you have a lot to say about this as well. >> there has been a few suggestions mad, may be the media should apologize. it needs to extract the stories that are now demonstrably false or demonstrably unproved men. mueller's report lays bare at least a dozen of what i would call dirty dozen stories that are clearly false and some of them aren't big publications like cnn. the right thing in journalism is retracting a story and moving on and that hasn't happened more than a dozen very important cases. the media comes out as a loser in this report until effects those. >> sean: what about the mueller report containing damaging information on rod rosenstein? >> if people flip to page 11, they will see this really remarkable statement. he says the scoping memo gave him the ability to look at carter page's contacts with senior russian intelligence officials and those never happened but where did that information

what "the hill"'s john solomon is calling "the single sentence russia bombshell that barr delivered to congress today that few in the media picked up on." but this is crucial, take a look. >> the office of the inspector general has a pending investigation of the fisa process in the russian investigation. and i expect that that will be complete in probably may or june, i am told. more generally, i am reviewing the conduct of the investigation. and trying to get my arms around all of the aspects of the counterintelligence investigation that was conducted during the summer of 2016. >> sean: reports tonight, barr will form a team to review the fbi's actions during the so-called phony collusionte pro. the pendulum is swinging, the boomerang is now headed right back to the top, deep state actors, they will all be held accountable appeared mark my words, criminal indictments are coming. and as we have reported, congressman devin nunes is preparing criminal referrals as we speak for this very week. freedom caucus chairman mark meadows saying that even more criminal referrals are on the way bec

john solomon will join us in a few moments to explain more to you but ask yourself, when will the fake news media mob apologize for their lies and conspiracy theories? whenap will they take accountability? when will they take account for fueling collusion, hysteria, breathless reporting? day after day, night after night. in the media, facts were only an afterthought, any anonymous source, yes, they believed like buzzfeed's bombshell about the president having the president's lie which is totally false or npr being embarrassed after it lied about don jr.'s senate testimony. or mcclatchey blatantly wrong about michael cohen's trip to prague. it never happened. "the guardian" reported a fake conspiracy about julian assage. three cnn employees forced to resign after reporting an untrue russia-related story about our friend, the mooch, anthony scaramucci. or brian ross leaving abc after a fake news story i found trump in russia that actually impacted negatively the stock market. it was fake hysteria about a russian spy in the white house or bloomberg forced to correct their story about trum

they are admitting they colluded to help hillary in the 2016 election thanks to john solomon. we also know the ukrainian government official did this and is admitting this. has evidence to this fact. the impact the 2016 election. is robert mueller going to be reappointed to investigate the clinton campaign and only higher republican donors? what about the dossier? yeah, the dossier with of allh things, imagine this, russian government lies. misinformation, propaganda now debunked. tonight, according to politico, we are learning that the doj inspector general's report will likely target the author of thed dossier, christopher steele. that is fine but the real focus should be on the person that paid for that lying dossier.n those that never verified that dossier and committed a fraud on the fisa court. those that leaked the information to their friends in the media to influence the election. those that used it to deny an american citizen, carter page, of his constitutional rights, and use those russian lies to commit a fraud again and again, four separate times on the fisa court

i heard john solomon wases going to be coming to post actually to go to washington times. was very excited. he came onboard and jon set me on my marry way to afghanistan and bring me back stories and i did and i spent time on the ground with soldiers with with u.s. soldiers. >> post in you heard what he had to say. he's very concerned about what's happening to major media outlets here. >> oh, my. you're concerned too? what do you do you keep soldiers on show what a real journalist is and how to do news or is there need for something more? something bigger, do you think? >> great question. you know, i think the industry has to have a moment of interest section after what's happened here, and not some foe where we beat our chest for a couple of days and movesp on. i think we have to look at how do we practice journalist in 21st century with twitter and facebook, and all of the outlets to say somethings. i think one of the great signs that i saw coming of an industry spreading so far from neutrality when twitter started to see reporters making extraordinary expression of opin

campaign and we are starting to see some investigation for some people you have you know people like john solomon sarah carter matt taibbi glenn greenwald these are people who will i think connect some dots of course you have bart now who is a much better a.g. than sessions ever was and i think he's going to i think he will pursue some things will he get the big fish no i don't think so i think there's going to be some people whether you start with hillary clinton who did collude to rip off bernie sanders from the primary election character he was a good think that we will ever get the full story of the origins of the dasi i mean the details of it here because we have a lot of suppositions a lot of claims come in there's some contradictory suppositions out there but if we can get to the origins of the dossier then we get to the origins of the hoax go ahead alex i don't know i think i think we kind of know that the dicey originated with brennan i think we know that mccain had make them grow but we don't know that there but but their knowledge of its lack of authenticity bring it to a pfizer court

>> i read the piece by john solomon, an outstanding investigative journalist and it is an important issuehn was ringing alarm bells. this is twisted in ukraine's political system. there are issues in ukraine. we need to be in a mistrust but verify phase. i was looking with great concern at those who said there was evidence of collusion with the trump campaign when there was none. we need to be prudent in this case as well. shannon: if it would set up a situation where we have russia trying to sway the election in terms of the candidate they want in ukraine trying to sway the election in terms of the candidate they wanted. >> the world is interconnected and small so there could be ties in this case, some allegation that $3 million was funneled to joe biden's son hunter. those are serious allegations but something that was claimed was the general prosecutor couldn't turn the information to the fbi, that is rather preposterous. we have some all of the world whose job is to take this information and verify and that it. let's see where this leaves. shannon: verify and met and let us get on wit

. >> after solomon's death, his son, john, packs up some of his father's belongings into a trunk thatrs the family name, and over the years, the cedar chest gets handed down through the generations. >> john solomon warner, when he passed away, it went to his only daughter, josefina, and then everything that she had went to my mother, elva. >> why has the family held on to it? >> it's an heirloom. my mother always used it for storing ancient family relics. she was very proud of it. >> the trunk stays in elva's living room until she passes away in 2009. then her son jock, one of four heirs, moves the crate to his home and takes an inventory of its contents, including those old blue jeans. >> what'd they look like? >> they were very weird jeans. they didn't have belt loops, and they only had one pocket on the back. they looked like a pair of old blue jeans that had been washed once and then folded and put away. >> weren't they worn out? >> they are in like-new condition. >> like brand-new? >> like brand-new. >> and on the back of those spotless jeans, a famous marking. >> they had the le

executive vice president at the whole john solomon says there are other investigations that would worryames comey and the left. >> there two investigations we should be watching from inspector general horowitz, what is fisa abuse, a lot of synergy between that investigation with devon nunez but taking a look at james comey's handling of classified information. the man who cleared hillary clinton of her wrongdoing being looks at himself or mishandling classified information, the memos he wrote of his conversations with donald trump. we know four of those are classified, one or more may have been leaked based on numbers we know were shared and we also know the fbi scrubbed offices where the classified information was leaked so look for that and we will really see just how bad the comey fbi was when these reports come out. >> james comey was fired by donald trump in may 2017. democrats demanding documents donald donald trump's plan to send migrants to sanctuary cities. we then following that. some of those cities pushing back, even threatening legal action. griff jenkins is live for us in

i don't know if you were following the top of the show or john solomon's new report or that both catherine herridge and sara carter are reporting tonight we now have text messages from peter strzok and lisa page, never before seen. discussing recruiting white house sources to spy on you. take it in any order you would like. >> president trump: well, i think it's incredible when you hear it. these are great reporters, all three. and when you have them on your trail, that's a problem. these are people that should be getting pulitzers, not the ones that got the pulitzers that got everything wrong. if you listen to them, they got everything wrong. go back and read some of their early and mid articles.ro they didn't have a clue what was going on and they win pulitzer prizes.e these are the ones that should be winning. it sounds like big stuff and o sounds very interesting with ukraine. i just spoke to the newds president a little while ago, two days ago, and congratulated him on an incredible race. incredible run. a big surprise victory. got 75% of the vote.is that sounds like big, big stuff. i

. >> bret: let me gte to one more from the hill john solomon started this report and we followed up withis one crucial piece of information that biden must have known but didn't mention to his audience when talking in ukraine. the prosecutor he got fired was leading a wide ranging corruption probe into the natural gas firm burisma holdings that employed biden's younger son hunter as the board member. here is the speech references on ukraine. >> i said you are not getting a billion. i will be leaving here. leaving six hours. and the prosecutor is not fired. you are not getting the money. well son of a [bleep] [laughter] got fired. and they put in place someone who was solid. >> bret: so this prosecutor was investigating hunter biden apparently and his firm he was working with. >> the company he was attached to in some way. look, i think it's sort of an on striews issue and moving parts to it if democrats voters are concerned about shades of the double dealing this is certainly something that biden will have to explain. >> bret: all i know it is coming fast and furious. >> this is what it

and russian sources is right in front of everybody's face obama and ukrainians reported on by john solomon this network, catherine herridge did a great report saying part of a set up tried to pin russian collusion on mike flynn, too. collusion is real just with the democrats and not republicans. that's why i can't believe they won't let this go. it's going to bomber rang in their face. steve: they are realizing it is starting to wane. waiting for the mueller report. they changed the narrative to the taxes. not really about collusion anymore. it's all about the taxes. >> the problem is they have switched the narrative a couple times. started with he is a traitor. then he was guilty of treasonous behavior. then he was guilty of collusion. when that fell apart they moved to object destruction. now that obstruction isn't working they will move on to some kind of financial collusion with the trump tax returns. this is all nonsense. it's just desperation. people trying to be serious on the media other networks call them and check them if you have evidence we are not putting you on again, mr. sch

manus: that was the goldman ceo david solomon sitting with erik schatzker. john is from legal and general investment managers and john, when you look at -- listen to solomon spreading the good word in what the fed are doing -- when you look at record high in the s&p 500, do you think valuations are getting a little stretched trading on the pef 17? that is above the 10 year average. stretched? averagee 10 year contains the period after the global financial crisis. its 2015, it is around the average and that has been a period when inflation expectations have come down and pe is on a forward-looking basis, around 10% lower than at the peak in 2017. there is room to go back to that level and that shouldn't be seen as a cap. i don't see valuations as a restriction on equities at this level. the juxtaposition of what we have to look at this morning ,s we sit down was the pce which was fundamentally under pressure, the slowest since january 2018. the consumer is still firing on all cylinders, i would say. the best gain in a decade. up .9% on the month, so which do you p
