the most scared i've ever been as a performer with the exception of my first appearance on "the lettermanemember when the country rallied around you in hopes of a better tomorrow? that was hilarious. that was the best one yet. >> jordan and i were just like, this is not fair. obama should be able to say what he wants. but because of the climate of the world and the racial spectrum that we live in in the united states, he can't. so we'll do it for him. >> i invited looper, my anger translator, to join me tonight. >> we knew that this was something president obama was really going to enjoy. he may have felt that he could use an anger translator for real a few times, now he actually had one. >> we count on the press to shed light on the most important issues of the day. >> and we can count on fox news to terrify all white people! >> it was amazing. it was earth-shattering. the best way to describe the feeling is satisfaction. >> focus on billionaire donors creates real problems for our democracy. >> and that's why we're running for a third term! >> no we're not. >> we're not? who the hell sa

someone joked, i found the bowling ball test as performed by david letterman.drop them off the roof. while the internet is having a ball, maybe we should spare president trump so the ridicule, talk about a strike. there is actual video of a safety test performed in japan involving a weight that looks like a bowling ball. some countries have higher standards to protect pedestrians heads when they're struck by vehicles. this hood could reduce impact on pedestrians. but what did the white house say about this example? >> obviously, he's joking about their particular post. >> reporter: if that was a joke, their is a gutter ball. one twit earn person said this is the only bowling ball test i need. jeanne moos, cnn, new york. >> when in doubt, they say he's joking. thanks for joining us, ""ac 360"" begins right now. >> good evening. we begin with a development in the russia investigation that not only takes it one step closer to the president himself but also could take special counsel robert mueller one step closer to danger. he subpoenaed the trump organization its

josh letterman covers national security, covers the state department for the associated press. he was also for the purposes of this conversation on the plane with rex tillerson as all of this was going down. and chris hill is a former u.s. ambassador. he is also an msnbc contributor. gentlemen, thanks for your time. josh, let me start with you, tell us about that plane ride. >> this was a flight back from africa, a trip that secretary tillerson, for the time being anyway, secretary, cut short by a day, didn't give any other reasoning except that he was exhausted. and had also gotten sick in ethiopia. in the last segment, as he was flying back from africa, he came back, he spoke with reporters on the record. actually made some news on the russia issue. there were no indications from his outward posture or any of his aides on the trip any of this was imminent so this was quite a bit of a shock to those who were in his bubble in just the few hours before trump announced this on twitter. >> joel, first reaction from a lot of folks is the secretary had been comey'd. you might recall

but i was working with some writers from letterman, actually, and who i wasn't worried and we weren'te night of the show. and then about an hour beforehand, he came backstage and like, tony soprano, and was screaming. you know, "you got to cut this, got to cut that. i don't understand this. this sucks!" i said, "no, it's too late, i can't do that now." it's -- you know. and as we know -- >> seth: yeah. >> now, he doesn't take no for an answer easily. >> seth: yeah. [ light laughter ] >> so -- [ laughter and applause ] so things got heated. >> seth: sure. >> and unpleasantries were exchanged. and he said, you know, "i'll get someone else to do it." i said, "fine, i think i saw regis philbin out there. [ light laughter ] see if he's available." and he started to push me into a corner and he's screaming at me and it crescendoed with, "i'll ruin you," he said. "i'll ruin you." >> seth: wow! >> and i said, "you can't hurt me, i don't have a film career." [ laughter ] so the next thing i know, i'm called up to see hillary clinton. she got out of her coffin. she said -- [ laughter and applau

david letterman loved the show. stephen colbert ran a clip of us trying to spearfish and said flake and heinrich prove once and for all republicans and democrats can get along when death is the only option. [laughter] trying to spearfish and saidsens worth, we have proved that empirically. it needs to happen. one thing the president has been pushing for is for the senate to get rid of the filibuster. there are reforms that are certainly needed. we can get rid of the motion to proceed so we do not have to slow a bill down twice. i would be much opposed to get rid of the 60-vote requirement that it takes to pass legislation out of the senate. some of the worst laws that we have, legislation that has been passed, are those pieces of legislation that moved to buy a b that moved through by a are partisan majority. the senate is the senate for a reason. there are rules for the parties to compromise. the difficulty we are facing and the senate right now is we have had dysfunction for a while in terms of parties not being a

we did, we made it back, went on a little circuit, david letterman and a lot of shows, stephen colbert ran a clip of us trying to spearfish out there and said flake and heinrich prove once and for all republicans and democrats can get along when death is the only option. for what it is worth we proved that in. we. it needs to happen. one thing the president has been pushing for the senate to get rid of the filibuster. .. by partisan majority. the senate has been the senate for a reason, different rules than the house forcing the parties to compromise. the difficulty that we're facing in the senate right now is we've had this function for a while in terms of parties that being able to get together. we've had a lot of turnover in the senate over, if you have been in the senate for eight years, you have been there longer than half of the senate. it's hardly but that is the case. what that also means that you have more than half of the senate, senators who are there, and lest they served in the house, have never seen regular order, have never seen the senate function or the congress functi

host david letterman once you empower young guys they can bring change i was a young girl it is my voice and i and i can i can change the world and i believe that there are the young guys out there if we give them support they can hear their voice and they can change the world. but in spite of all of that it's the west fascination with homework that has left some pakistanis call for other victims to be recognized as well and in fact some have questioned the loads up that question why they have a seacoast shot in the same shooting as malala haven't received the same amount of global attention others have also posted this picture just here behind me you see and it says this is what he thought he was shot eight times on his face and other parts on push was hacked he still goes to the skate same school but it also goes on to compare that some allowances she's been living in the u.k. since the shooting but this is actually what milan his response was when she touched down on pakistani soil many signs of the injustices i still cannot believe that this is true that this is actually happening fo
