senator john warner from virginia, and the late senator mack and feiss from maryland. these two individuals really made it happen. [applause] today, this memorial was dedicated. it was built to honor, remember, and recognize the sacrifices of over 58,000 americans. and all the men and women who served in a confusing and unpopular war in a very distant land. this memorial was built for future generations so they would learn from this war, and would always remember that wars have serious and lasting consequences. i said in my remarks at the groundbreaking for this remote 35l 35 years ago -- memorial years ago, there is no glory in war, only suffering. with all the suffering vietnam veterans endured and saw, they also witnessed uncommon courage and compassion. there was heroism all around, but mostly, it was that they did the job the country asked them to do. their commitment to each other, and their individual common decency and belief in their them.y sustained nearly 3 million american men and women served in vietnam. they returned home not asking for favors or special

. >> john warner -- mark warner, i should say, john, made a statement on the senate floor yesterday saying that the firing of robert mueller would be a red line for democrats. senator sheldon whitehouse was asked about it earlier tonight. watch this. >> i don't have any particular inclination as to why senator warner chose this time. i suspect it's a response to this increasing cacophony of criticism that is being set up that looks like it's the precursor to some kind of an effort. it reminds me a little bit of the battlefield scenes where the artillery softens up the beach before the invasion. this is the public relations artillery designed to soften up the beach before they do something. >> what do you make of the senator's comments, john? >> well, it didn't strike me as we're at the same point where nixon fired cox, for example, the special prosecutor. that the rumors have more to them than we might otherwise think of rumors. so he thought it good cause to go to the floor of the senate and put out there that this, indeed, was a red line and he and his colleagues would statak action. he'

he reminds me of john warner in the olds days against that interesting character they beat in virginiah. it surprised me. >> ollie north. >> right, of course. but it surprised me that, you know, at this late and crucial juncture, shelby came out and came out strong. >> can i dare to be skeptical and seychelle by is 83, 84. he is not rung again. he can tell the people what he thinks finally. >> yeah, i think it's going to make a difference. chris, i've been down to alabama twice in the last three weeks. so i spent quite a loft time down there. and one thing people keep saying over and over again is they don't want to hear from outsiders. they don't -- they weren't too thrilled to hear from steve bannon, to be honest, when i was talking to people who went to his rally. we don't care what steve bannon says. we want the hear from alabamans. i think it does matter. >> how do they like you down there? this outsider thing. because this alabama thing. they don't like outside agitators. >> yeah, they don't. they did look at me as a yankee. look, i'm "the boston globe." what are you doing. >> di

. >> well, let me bring in the interviewer of said senator warner now. john harwood from cnbc.hi, chuck. >> clarify. he said he would amend his comments. one of the smoke comments to me earlier this year, is he amending it saying more smoke or starting to clear up and he knows it's more than just smoke? what's he trying to say with all of these subtle hints? >> well, i think he's trying to say that he's seen something you and i would regard as fire without saying that word, because when i followed up and said, have you seen fire? he says, well i don't want to pre-ju judge but was absolutely amazed by the number and extent of the contacts between president trump and russians over the course of the campaign. a picture filling out all year long beginning with the papadopolos issue earlier in the year, of course, the meeting with donald junior, subsequent contacts after that. wikileaks contacts with donald trump jr., and he is, seems to believe that there is a lot more here than even he thought when this investigation started. >> and it seems the way you delved into this with him g

involved or the environment which is made tougher by the challenge we see with the at&t and time warner deal? johnup the complicated set of regulatory justice department risks. on the one hand you have this remarkable power, remarkable power that facebook and google have amassed in their environment, some might even say quality monolithic, but there is no framework in which they are restrained. in the media environment everything they touch is restrained. now you have a justice department making it clear that a directv acquisition of turner networks, which does not have one of the big four networks, if that transaction is getting challenged you certainly have to step back and say, well other ones get through and what is the risk of completion? my skepticism is really that when people tend to talk about things probably as much as this is being talked about, it strikes me that there is a lot of noise. maybe, there are a lot of pieces that make sense and you want to see it happen, but who knows. scarlet: talk about the internet giants, you mentioned google, facebook my amazon, of those three who post

pass the tax reform bill, and the senate is said to take up a vote tonight john harwood sat down with democratic senator mark warneris less than flattering take on the bill and joins us now with more hi, john >> hi, kelly now, this is relevant not because of senator warner's vote for the bill, like the debate over obamacare, this is a completely party-line process and they're are not going to be any democratic votes for it. mark warner said it's possible, he's a former businessman, moderate democrat, said it would have been possible to lure some of those democrats with provisions like this one take a listen. >> one of the things that would have made this much more palatable to me is if these companies are going to bring back their profits they generated in foreign countries at extraordinarily low rates, and the rate, the range is between 7% and 14%, why not say, fine, company, bring it back, but part of the price of bringing it back at that low rate is you've got to put in place a meaningful training program, not for everybody, but everybody in your company that makes less than $80,000 a year >> now, even though th

it's a little funny, i this i, but so many positive things. >> joe, i like your question to john about mark warnerocrats and their view of the world processed this rides in confidence, which we can chronicle. it happens because republicans are way more optimistic about the economy under trump than democrats err were under obama just acknowledge it instead of being in total denial. you p, they can do what they want anyway -- he was a business guy. he is worth $100 million, i think, from what was that -- >> i think warner and a lot of democrats do support a lower corporate tax rate, though not this much. i think it's really where the rubber hits the road >> what was his -- sorken, what was it, the mobile -- you know the mobile phones down in d.c. that warner started? you're not listening to you wouldn't know. net -- >> i'm sorry not yet for you. not yet. >> i'm worried about you >> i do -- i can't come up with things net -- >> i find it happening to me >> nextel. eventually i come up with it no one told me that. anyway, voting expected today on congress's historic tax reform package. republican lead

. >> john, it would seem as if senator warner shared your concerns about the folks sewing the seeds of doubt if you will. how did those comments strike you yesterday? to me, it seems as if the senator might know something that we don't know. >> you know, i think what he knows and i'm glad he did this, think what he knows is that a short coming the president has that i think is perhaps his most important short coming is his inability to see the consequences, to foresee the consequences of actions he takes. so even though the white house is saying that he doesn't intent to fire mueller, you know, i can imagine that left alone and worked-up state, he might do that and not understand that it's going to open a constitutional crisis as senator warner said, so i think warner is trying to just make sure the president understands that, and also i think to do it in the context of pushing back a bit on all of these efforts under way to discredit and delegitimize mueller's operation. which is a concerning thing, because it could, you know, we've reached a point i think over last year just a larger

john flannery. good evening to all of you. robert, senator mark warnere floor this afternoon to draw a line in the sand. here's what he said, in part. >> the president said he's not considering removing special counsel mueller. congress must make clear to the president that firing the special counsel or interfering with this investigation by issuing pardons of essential witnesses is unacceptable and would have immediate and significant consequences. >> what do you think of the senator's remarks? >> i don't think democrats or a democrat should be drawing lines in the sand. on the other hand, congress is a branch of government. i don't understand the sentiment. i don't think the white house has any intention of firing the special counsel or issuing preemptive pardons. i get what he's trying to say, but it would be a story if a republican had that to say, not a democrat. >> the white house counsel ty cobb did respond to warner. he said, if the media is going to continue to ask for responses to every absurd and baseless rumor, for five months or more, the wh

i want to play what democratic senator mark warner, the top democrat in the investigation told cnbc's john harwood this week. >> you've said in the past that on this issue of collusion, you've seen smoke but fought fire. is that still the case? >> i think more and more this pick is coming into view. i think some of the comments that i made literally months ago, i would amend those comments in terms of where we stand today. >> we heard some harsh words coming from senator warner, apart from that, do you feel the smoke is starting to clear? or if you don't? >> i think the pieces are starting to fit together. i think last week was the first week i started to get some sense of what took place. but i think senator warner's comments were measured to an extent and i understand that. i want the american public to know, we're doing this the right way. witnesses of a benghazi-like investigation. we can't be shut down and we can't be limited. months ago if you had told me that the president's son would have been publicly acknowledging direct communications with wikileaks that if he would have said, i
