arthur mccarthy as well. want to be ignorant fuss all your life. you better start reading potbly can and people said, yeah. he would finish off three or four books before he did anything every day. so, monster capabilities, that why i think, as chief of staff. he excelled what did in world war i and so well-rounded this he is he kind of officer he wanted to build. he got know french, spanish, how to deal with all people throughout the world. >> good morning. great stuff, thanks very much the morning with us. question is, relationship with mccarthy, and i know we gat truman, a truman as well. do the orbits collide any time? >> no. only collide when they meet at the island. >> ok. beginning. no >> well,. totallyrea and they get destroy. no, they don't know each other. ok. though hehinks even cannot stand roosevelt. he thinks he is a genius. that couldly person make mccarthy stand up and salute. ethals guy that can push buttons the time. then, this guy comes can in behind them. you know? and seesf artillery him

gene mccarthy could care less. he would mock the leaders of the senate and give interviews, the senate is really, it's kind of like some new guinea, the senate leadership hated mccarthy, he couldn't care less. he jumps into the race for the presidency to have united states. no other candidate like mccarthy he jumps into the race and reporter asked him at press conference, why do you want to be president, he looked at the press, i didn't say i want to be president, i'm willing to be president, i didn't say i want to be president. and the press is looking and another reporter, well, if you want, what kind of president do you think you'd make. i'd be adequate. he announces december 1st, he doesn't show up in new hampshire until the end of january. he has skeleton staff. we scheduled all of the things for you, senator, they take him to first speech, a thousand people, they have been promoting this thing weeks and weeks, trustees halfway to speech and taps the driver of the car, yeah, you know, i have an idea, take me b

but mccarthy was a joke. i will not even bother. he didn't want new hampshire to be lost in the shuffle. so he sat out the pledge cards. every registered voter in new hampshire it was up pledge card with the right in campaign. the people recoil. what happened to the secret ballot? to send this pledge to the state party office and then to say it is time for democrats to stand up and be counted or counted out. to use this as a heavy-handed big brother threat and this words that the headquarters. the estimated would get between five and 10% on election day came within 200 votes and then two days later he jumps in the race. so a lot of the kennedy supporters moved to bobby that mccarthy supporters would have been kennedy supporters but this terrible tension between the campaign had occurred. but when johnson saw the polls he would be killed by eugene mccarthy three days later that lbj drops out. and then to drop out of the race without the guys they were in the race begin with. bobby kennedy and mccarthy over the next couple of months.

please welcome congressman kevin mccarthy. mr. mccarthy: thank you very much. [applause] mr.thy: if anybody questions whether god creates miracles, look at steve scalise. right? [applause] mr. mccarthy: i don't know if you know. next week will be the one year today that he would shot. i remember that date clearly. steve and i have been friends for decades. youngand i were republicans together. he was the head of his estate louisiana and we were a team that. i was the first member to endorse him, right to make check. whenthat's morning, security came and told me what had taken place, my wife happened to be here and we went to the hospital. the first reports were how he was just ok. when we got to the hospital we saw the doctors race and it was -- it was not the case. 20 pints of blood. your body does not hold that much. we were waiting for jennifer, his dear friend and we prayed. when jennifer came and she looked at the doctor and the doctor was laying out severity where she was. she said sir, you don't know my husband. he has tough, he has faith, and he will walk again. he ju

do you think kevin mccarthy will be the next speaker, anna palmer?> i think we have a long ways to wait for the next five months. you are already starting to see a dynamic between kevin mccarthy and steve scalise, the number three in the house, that is very similar. it reminds me of flash backs between mr. cantor and boehner and the in fighting that happened. >> do you think kevin mccarthy will be the next speaker, eugene? >> i think it is huely likely. what is interesting is what got kevin mccarthy out of the running previously perhaps just saying things that were jumping the gun will not be as much of a concern to voters and other republicans who have to make a decision in the end. but i'm still paying a lot of attention to the house freedom caucus of seeing who they will back and how much howe trouble they could cause to getting kevin mccarthy to that seat. >> is eugene, anna right? >> 50/50 right now. i think scalise has a good shot right now. it depends on the freedom caucus. >> i think it will be kevin. we will see. thank you, anna, al, eugene.

he thought mccarthy was effete.sically a one-issue candidate. he was a peace candidate. but kennedy had a broader vision in terms of what's happening in the cities, what's happening around race and the issues of poverty. >> we want kennedy! we want kennedy! >> we cannot separate ourselves no matter where we live from the problems and the troubles and the difficulties that face the whole of the united states. >> ladies and gentlemen, the vice president and the next president of the united states, hubert h. humphrey. >> i shall seek the nomination of the democratic party. >> when humphrey came in as a candidate, he was regarded as a johnson surrogate. >> i will run on the record of the johnson/humphrey administrations, but i will not rest on it. >> and it was very clear to everybody that johnson controlled the party. >> president johnson will do what he can to help humphrey win the nomination and to see that senator robert kennedy does not get the nomination. >> who would be nominated by the democratic party wasn't ne

he liked mccarthy. he felt sorry for him and he felt mccarthy was a demagogue. he was heavy drinking big friendly nice guy like but he also did not have proper boundaries. and -- was an evil man and was able to play on his worst side. my father always had an affection for mccarthy. he saw that he had a good side. mccarthy died in at that time everyone who is liberal in that country went to his funeral. he went because he thought it was the right thing to do. just remember if that'll pritchett. her father was asked he would always just say simply he would not give an explanation but his mistaken truth was ever getting involved with the nonexistent communist in this state department in hollywood. he was never part of any of that. he was long before mccarthy started doing that. it was just getting involved with and misjudging mccarthy's character that's the best answer i can give you. >> we are more questions. >> can you speak to the roots of your environmental philosophy and an activism for your family? >> i started -- i always was interested in the outdoors from

mccarthy smeared jr. marshall and herod the post for -- so -- a lot in common in terms of a utter complete disregard for truth. and smearing -- but -- what they stand nor is different and donald trump is a person and they are very different people. but the lying and or smearing and indecent city i think are very similar. you alluded to this a moment ago but mccarthy goes down -- and in 1954 when your bookends although you don't go into this in the book. i assume reader knows what happens in the book. there are hints of a -- hingts as to what mccarthy is about to experience. right you get a good sense of what it is going to be but by as you say the senate -- for conduct, quote, contrary to traditionings. unquote, after which is influenced and he was condemned to the ash history -- what do you think history will say about donald trump? >> i don't know. because, obviously, joe mccarthy known for smearing people in the name of communism in the name of fighting communism and donald trump president trump is doi

mccarthy and he felt sorry for him, he felt that mccarthy was a demagogue. he was a heavy drinking kind of big, friendly, nice guy like tony soprano. [laughing] if you saw him. he didn't have proper boundaries and cohn who is a very evil man was able to play on his worst side. my father always had affection for mccarthy and saw that he was, you know, , that he had a good side that had just been lost. mccarthy died and at all, at te time everybody who was liberal in this country, was condemning him, my father went to steal just because he thought it was in the right thing to do. just memory of that old friendship. my father when he was asked about mccarthy, he would always just say simply, he wouldn't give long explanations, he would always just say i made a mistake. his mistake in truth was not ever in getting involved with chasing nonexistent communists in the state department and in hollywood, et cetera. he was never part of any of that. in fact, he was long gone before mccarthy started doing that. this was just getting involved and misjudging mccarthys ch

thank you very much. >> i don't think they felt mccarthy would be elected president.d a pretty good chance in ending the vietnam war among other things. >> we want kennedy! we want kennedy! >> in addition to his opposition to the war, kennedy addresses the racial strife growing in the country. on april 4, 1968, he is on his way to campaign in an african-american section of indianapolis when he learns that martin luther king junior has been assassinated. the responsibility falls on kennedy to inform the crowd about the tragedy. >> i have some very sad news for all of you. and i think sad news for all of our fellow citizens and people who love peace all over the world. that is that martin luther king was shot and was killed tonight in memphis, tennessee. >> he got up on the bed of a truck, surrounded by angry people. that night he talked about why it was important for us to remember martin luther king junior's message of non-violence. people listened. >> for those of you who are black and are tempted to be filled with hate and distrust, i had a member of my family kille

one thing it says is that he was a loyal friend of joe mccarthy, that joestood not just mccarthy was his dad's friend, but that joe mccarthy gave him his first job. where much of america thought communism was a huge threat, so did bobby kennedy, and he thought there was only one person in washington standing up against the communists. so while jack kennedy said "stay away from the funeral" he did what he did in those days, which was ignore the advice. bobby kennedy was a loyalist. i don't know what that means, but you could say there's something noble about being there when there was a potential risk. the other half of bobby kennedy back then was bobby kennedy the realist. bobby kennedy who knew someday he wanted his brother to be president, and new -- and he knew someday he might run for office himself. he went to the funeral. he showed up and he was darned welcome to make sure nobody was going to see him and anybody who saw him wasn't going to talk about it -- he was darned well going to make sure. that is who america was back then in the conservative era of eisenhower. so he start

his candidacy the trump-mccarthy ticket.carthy has a very big fan. >> the head of the police in chicago is a person i know. he's a phenomenal guy. >> mccarthy fires back saying the attack ad shows that he's got the chicago mayor's attention. mccarthy won't say who he voted for him in 2016 presidential election but he also says he won't abandon his friends like rudy giui because of his political affiliation. mccarthy was deputy new york police commissioner on 9/11 and worked closely with giuliani during and after the attack. mccarthy said rahm emanuel's attempt to link them to the trump administration is aimed solely at trying to avoid the real issues. >> under this mayor , corrupti, school closings on violent crime. we don't have to live like this. if chicago does have to live like this. >> mccarthy says during his tenure as chicago's top cop the homicide rate dropped to levels not seen since the 1960s, yet over the past two years the city has seen 1400 murders, there were nine just this weekend. but it was on mccarthy's wat

leader mccarthy, we have talked about this before on this show. what do you do about this? i think you said this has got to be a source of alarm. there has to be accountability. if you're speaker of the house, what will you do about it? >> i think individuals need to come in. there needs to be transparencies. because we have to have a clear understanding. we have a first amendment and others. people are controlling -- if they're controlling the feed of what people are seeing, that is fundamentally wrong. there is a problem there that the users, are they truly knowing what's happening with their information and others.

mccarthy: i thank my friend for yielding. this is just a clear example of a difference in philosophical opinion. we had the same debate when it came to the tax bill. that it was going to be armageddon. it would be crumbs if people got bonuses. and that we would be in a really worse position than we are. as we found out, mr. speaker, that is totally untrue. that the economy is stronger. again, in the last 49 in the last 49 years there have been seven months where unemployment was below 7%. we just hit one million new jobs based upon the tax cut more so since the election. household wealth has increased by $7 trillion just since the election. now, this is a philosophical difference. currently, 2/3 of able-bodied adults report no earned income, why? because the snap program is letting them down. not a single family will be cut off. ur proposal goes to those aged 18-59, individuals who are mentally and physically disabled and the primary caregivers of a child under the age of six and we give them the job training to let them get

mccarthy: i thank the gentleman for yielding. mr. speaker, if i could just restate and so i can speak more clear. mr. speaker, the house is also expected to consider legislation relating to border security immigration. so the answer is yes, as i said before. we are bringing that bill to the floor. we have been working very closely with the entire conference taking all ideas in. we had a very productive conference last night and we'll work through the weekend and will see that bill on the floor next week. and i look forward to your support as well. . mr. hoyer: not working with a bipartisan group that has support on this floor of 240 members, 240 members of the house of representatives, you need 218 for a majority. support an option and have been asking for that option for a long period of time. the majority leader is looking somewhat quiz cal, mr. speaker, and he wants to know how you get to 240. 193 plus 47. there were 54 republicans who asked for the rule, putting four bills on the floor. but seven were apparently encouraged to tak

but mccarthy isn't and the risk of something many people outside of joseph mccarthy circle bought into. i believe eisenhower felt he had to do some of this himself and his own administration to inoculate himself from the challenge of his own right wing that he was soft on communism. in confronting the greatest social and moral challenge of his times, the civil rights movement, eisenhower and many white americans of the 1950s, respond with caution and with wariness. some authors have tried to make eisenhower into an unsung hero of the civil rights movement. i was tempted to buy that argument. i found evidence, some evidence to support that argument, but at the end of the day when everything i felt that he went a little too far. i felt that you went a little too far. however, eisenhower made a number of slowly crucial decisions in this field that were bold, that were humane, that were consequential, and that could have gone the other way when he had to make a decision more often than not he made the right decision. this was an intimate no background in this field, what you understand of

senator mccarthy, 706 votes.r eugene mccarthy has conceded defeat in his bid for the democratic presidential nomination. >> hubert humphrey as is lined up, i think senator eugene mccarthy really would have conceded defeat in his heart of hearts a month or two ago. >> the nomination was really not in question anymore. >> mr. mcgovern. >> it was not going to be mccarthy and it was not going to be mcgovern. it was going to be hubert humphrey. that was a done deal before the convention opened. the focus became on a peace plank in the democratic party platform, felt strongly by those of us who had been in the kennedy campaign or mccarthy or mcgovern campaign. it was our last hope to get something at least. >> this is the moment of truth for the democratic party. it was the issue of vietnam and deeply-held feelings that the killing had to stop that motivated robert kennedy to become a candidate for president. a bullet stilled that voice, but he's here today, and if he were alive today, he'd be on that platform speaking

kennedy had been feuding with mccarthy's chief counsel. but kennedy was to return to the committee as counsel for the heocrats, and ultimately succeeded as chief counsel and staff director. in 1957, kennedy stepped into a role that was to heighten his reputation as a tough investigator. chief counsel for the senate -- rackets committee. he began an investigation into the teamster's union. their exchanges were abrasive. >> to find out whether these locals were gangster-run, whether racketeering was going on. what did you do that? >> it is not my responsibility in the new york area to do anything, and the general -- ident was enjoined by >>e charged that kennedy was conducting a vendetta against authless. a term kennedy himself joked about. he was often described as a kind of lightning rod during the successful 1960 presidential campaign of his brother john f kennedy. it was robert who handled the tough jobs and took the criticism, leaving his brother free to accept the adulation of the crowds. by all accounts, robert kennedy ran a tireless

there's another reason for that that he never rebuked mccarthy publicly and that is mccarthy, republicans have the 1-vote majority in the senate in 1954 and mccarthy was quite powerful. it was commonly known that he really influenced and may have controlled 10 to 12 of the senators and he wanted to keep his majority. that would be another reason not to go after mccarthy but he did in private. the book, a very good book, called -- talking about how eisenhower worked behind-the-scenes, always behind-the-scenes to get his way. for example, he expressed a very broad view of executive privilege. he denied mccarthy subpoena power to go after members of the executive branch of government. mccarthy needed his hearings and needed to bring all these people from the executive branch and subpoena documents in the executive branch and eisenhower absolutely refused to do it. the hidden hand presidency it was called, of eisenhower. it is one of the things he did. he made it a show of welcoming to the white house a number of mccarthy's critics. and welcomed to the white house shortly after he had taken o

i don't know. >> the mccarthy thing and hoffa thing? the '60s campaign.pose i've been positions which, but i don't exactly. i don't know. >> but robert kennedy had many constant reminders of his great popularity. his importance and the significance of his life. an average of 50 speaking invitations a day six days a week. not unusual for him to receive 2,500 letters in a single day. kennedy used every minute of his day. he walked from his office to in all weather not for exercise or recreation. it was five minutes away from 2,500 letters a day for a briefing by a knowledgeable aide. muchngs occupied robert kennedy's time, but they did not satisfy his orl range of interests curiosity about the subject. >> do you know anything program? poverty >> no sir. >> have you ever heard of head start? >> no sir. >> nice to see you. >> kennedy worked hard for his new state, new york, and he earned the grudging respect of many of his colleagues who had opposed him in 1964. his first year in the senate he compiled a amarkable record for senior senator and he was only a f

but mccarthy's cruel method. not the idea those that could be doing subversive things in the american government or for that matter or in the idea of homosexuals in government. but the administration took steps it is a tell all biography the good and the bad and this is the area i think we can be critical. hoping to steal his thunder but the anti-communist crusade and check the need to eventually force thousands out of federal employment. his executive order 10450 announce new procedures for rooting out anyone considered disloyal. no place in the federal government but just the first months in office. so for all the hatred of mccarthy he was determined not to be outflanked so how eisenhower cleverly outmaneuvered mccarthy to build a wall around him how eisenhower cleverly outmaneuvered mccarthy to build a wall around him does give credit that was fatal to mccarthy. but with something that many people outside of that circle bought into. i believe eisenhower had to inoculate himself from the challenge of its own ri

i don't know. >> the mccarthy thing and the hoffa thing and the campaign?> i suppose i've been in positions which -- but i don't know exactly. i don't know. >> but robert kennedy had many constant reminders of his great popularity, his importance and the significance of his life. he received an average of 50 speaking invitations a day six days a week. it was not unusual for him to receive 2,500 letters in a single day. he used every minute of his day. he walked from his office to the capitol in all weather, not for exercise or recreation. it is five minutes away from 2,500 letters a day. hearings occupied much of robert kennedy's time but did not satisfy his full range of curiosity about the subject. >> do you know anything about the poverty program? >> no. >> ever heard of head start? >> no. >> nice to see you. >> kennedy worked hard for his new state, new york. he heroined the grudging respect of many of his colleague who is opposed him in 1964. in his first year in senate, he compiled a remarkable record for a senior senator and he was only a freshman. n

-- wethis petered out found out about this, we had mccarthy, kevin mccarthy, the number two republican in the house. there is nothing to it, and we have eight people on the record thing, actually i discussed this with evan mccarthy. in this client will that even heard him? i don't know. makes ityan probably through november. it's a little unusual to announce you are going to retire. au make yourself, in a way, lame duck, managing a conference that is already difficult to manage, as we know, looking at a election that could very will be bad for them. they could lose the house. so, the whole thing is a little -- it's a mess. we have different things happening in congress. i read somewhere that i was not so sure you could not have immigration legislation move in the next month or two and there to take legislation care of the daca recipients. oh, no, that's it for this congress. but now it does look like enough moderate republicans signed a discharge petition, it looks like it ryan could bring something to the poor in the last week of june. one says that trump will veto it, but i am not su

bill: this petered out -- we found out about this, we had mccarthy, kevin mccarthy, the number two republican in the house. he said, there is nothing to it, and we have eight people on the record saying, actually i discussed this with evan mccarthy. in this current climate, will that even hurt him? i don't know. i think ryan probably makes it through november. it's a little unusual to announce you are going to retire. you make yourself, in a way, a lame duck, managing a conference that is already difficult to manage, as we know, looking at a election that could very will be bad for them. they could lose the house. so they are inclined to panic and run off in different directions. the whole thing is a little bit of a mess. reason, we that could have unanticipated things happen in congress. month ago saying a somewhere, i was measure you cannot have immigration legislation move in the next month or two and there might be legislation to take care of the daca recipients. oh, no, that's it for this congress. but now it does look like enough moderate republicans signed a discharge petition, it look

so we see kevin mccarthy -- and this mains me to say because i've known kevin mccarthy for a long timeccarthy since before he was in the congress. since he was in the california legislature. >> that's me with paul ryan. >> and i don't care -- i'm completely indifferent. if either party wants to make a monkey of the majority leader, i'm good with it if that's what they want to do but theaker he house is the constitutional office, third in line to the presidency and he disqualified himself yesterday. he disqualified himself for serious consideration for real power in this country because he subverted the constitution of the united states. he was not fidphfidelitous to h oath. he said blue is red, up is down. he defended the indefenseable. >> what we hear in washington, what we always hear around this set are republicans who have no use for donald trump, they speak ill of him off camera, say terrible things about him off camera much like democrats did about bill clinton in 1999. and yet -- actually, worse. and yet you turn that camera on and it's like a light switch goes on where they go

i've known kevin mccarthy for a long time and i consider him a friend.ut he disqualified himself for the speakership of the house. at the end of the day, if one of the parties wants to make a monkey, the majority leader, i'm pretty indefinite rent to it. the speaker is a constitutional officer, third in line to the office of the president of the united states. what you saw was a partisan there. somebody who would do anything, complete servility, above the constitution, above the system of checks and balances, above the rule of law. it's disgraceful to watch it. let me just say a couple of things. we saw jay sekulow there stone cold liar. nothing that man ever says again on national television should be taken seriously. of course, we already know that about sarah sanders and of course the president. but with regard to the question of collusion, of course there was collusion. the collusion took place when the president's son-in-law, his son, and his campaign chairman met with representatives with close ties to the russian intelligence services and to the k

ldz back with us, andy mccarthy, a former assistant u.s.ey for the southern district of new york, national contributing editor, fox business contributor. thank you for staying over. rosenstein, they're making it clear that they're two of the most arrogant son of a guns that i can even imagine putting up with. and are they really that stupid as to prod an oversight committee, whether it be judiciary, whether it be intel. they've given the back of their hand snr i thin. >> i think they're frustrated. it's too bad that they smirked the way that they did at times, because i do think -- lou: ray i would fire just for his smug nonsense. >> you know, look. these guys are trump appointees. and they are being portrayed as the main culprits here. lou: they're telling everybody to go to hell. >> but in the meantime, the fact is the president could order them to release the documents. and i think from their standpoint, just to try to sit in their shoes for a second, the committee is saying to them, all of these people who are committing misconduct work

your time with the presidential campaign of eugene mccarthy.ou have this gripping account of you and mccarthy and robert lowell going from town to town drinking whiskey out of a flask while inbetween speeches of mccarthy. talk about what drew you to the campaign and why you resigned. >> i left the ap because my coverage of the war did not make the bosses happy. i got the message. i quit. i did what i did. late 1967, i hoped bobby would run against johnson. johnson was nott going g to quit -- juan: bobby kennedy.y. >> my next-door neighbor was a wonderful columnist. mary came to me and said, gene mccarthy is going t to ru. he was very bright. i went to see him. she said, you have to go see him, he needs help. i go to see this guy and he could care less about the press. i was finally convinced to listen to him give a speech. i was knocked out. do you know what he talked about? he talked about the constitution, what lyndon johnson was doing. then he said, this war is immoral. i'd never heard a politician say something that was so profoundly true t

let me start with you, andy mccarthy. you've been around a while, prosecuted these cases we talked about. you were assisting united states attorney. we hear media outlets and others say first of all, it's not a spy, and second of all, fisa is not a big deal and we needed to get to the bottom of this russia thing. trey gowdy said this is exactly what the american people would want from the fbi. how do you respond to that? >> i don't think so. i think, mark, all of the back and forth whether it's a spy or informant is beside the point. when i was a prosecutor, the informants worked for us so when i spoke to the jury during the case, i would call them the informants, and the defense lawyers get up and speak to the same juries involved and the guys and call them the spies, the snitches, whatever, they're government-controlled covert operatives who you send into get information regardless what you call them, and the important thing always is why you sent them in, not what you call what they're doing, whether you want to be hyp

mccarthy worked hard and financing and good organization and but mccarthy and new hampshire don't meanld this encourage you in supporting -- >> i have no plans at the moment other than maybe something further to say after i see the rest -- thank you. >> will you accept the draft, senator? >> i don't think anybody suggested that? >> nobody suggested that. >> i'm suggesting it now. that's not a practical matter. >> will you refuse it? >> all of bobby's senior political advisers saying you don't depose an incumbent president, you will just rip the party apart and if he ran against johnson people will chalk it up to bobby's ruthless desire to be president or the loathing of lyndon johnson. >> they hated one another. >> mean, bitter, vicious animal. in many ways. >> i believe that bobby is -- he has these negros and catholics and one after the other each day, it makes him look like a great hero -- >> and bobby kennedy doesn't go after lbj until he is politically wounded. >> i'm announcing my candidacy for the president of the united states, i run because it is now unmistakeably clear that w

the simple fact is that mccarthy is so open and does a lot for integration. and that is what makes me special as i like to say i'm a german with a migrant background and i train kids in a jewish team and. this is germany's first mccarthy junior games and around three hundred fifty athletes are taking part showing that sport can bring people together. american sprinter ronnie baker has shown that he's the man to beat in the one hundred metres setting his compatriot chris coleman for the second time in a week other poker pulled away at the back of the lead stop in rome and put in the best time of the season so far one point nine three seconds a common call to just before the finish there was also a record setting performance from qatar. which printed past a world champion cost him a bottle of norway to win the four hundred meter hurdles the fastest time for me in a decade sat down with me right. this is d.w. news live from baghdad still to tell us import tariffs on e.u. steel in alameda went into effect earlier on friday i guess this will begin to bring you up

you saw not just preet bhara but kevin mccarthy on cnn saying the president would never pardon himself, that's an unrealistic possibility and it's not going to happen. so i do think that the idea floating out there came from the dinesh d'souza pardoning and the pardonings of martha stewart floating and people, the idea the president might do it, that was a question asked and i don't think it will happen. >> in the memo it raised the possibility potentially. it said that the president can pardon whoever he wants. mueller has been looking at his actions and the obstruction of justice probe and raise the question, can the president pardon himself if he wanted to? again rudy giuliani said that's not an option but could he? >> i don't think so and in fact there's an office of legal counsel opinion within the justice department from august 5th, 1974, which says no one can be the judge in his case and therefore the president cannot pardon himself. full stop. so i think if olc's opinion governs whether or not a sitting president can be indicted it governs the question whether a president can p

you have kevin mccarthy and nancy pelosi both from california.another chance to fight it out in this race. >> this is a proxy battle here. and it is, democrats have such a heavy lift to switch the house. there's obviously, the gerrymandering is tough. this would be a blow to some california races that they should win. it would be devastating to their chances to flip it in november. and certainly, republicans are aware of that, democrat's certain -- donald trump is not going to weigh in. even if he's able to survive the mueller probe, the democrats in the house are just going to tie up the next two years in investigation after investigation, hearing after hearing, and it's a major threat to the presidency. >> if on the election night in the general election in november we're talking about a one or two-seat majority it could be that we come a back to what happens on tuesday. coming up right after "kacie d.c.," stay tuned for an intimate portrait of jfk. >> i just wanted to keep going. little babies, and people crying. some people carrying flowers.
