there remained, murray was comparatively beaten by daniil medvedev last week in brisbane, who is in medvedevisina medvedev last week in brisbane, who is in a similar range in the rankings, just inside the top 20. the previous victories murray has had against better stager will not play much into this one, after that hip surgery murray has had, he's trying to regain his sharpness. he had a practice match against the rob webber one, novak djokovic, we can see some of that year. murray only managed to win over gao games in the 1.5 sets played —— two games. they had to make way for other practice games are not caught. but after that, we did see some war of the money we are used to off the court. —— some more of the murray. he was contacted —— some more of the murray. he was co nta cted by —— some more of the murray. he was contacted by a fan saying how much of remit was to see him play, murray felt the need to apologise, saying, i'm sorry i couldn't be more entertaining today! thank you for the support. he then went on to offer the fan tickets to see him in one of those first—round games, if you

russia's daniil medvedev, currently ranked 16th in the world... compared to murray's 240th. not easy for someone who recently admitted he's still experiencing "some pain" in his hip. it's in a "better place", though, he says, than it was this time last year in the build—up to the australian open. and that'll be murray's next challenge, in just under two weeks. whether it is issues with your game, if you aren't serving as well, or if you're not moving as well, the better players exploit that. like i said, he's a top player and is able to do that. so i need to try and find a way of working out how to get around some of the things i struggle with a bit now. but the scotsman eventually lost control and was overpowered by medverev, who won 7—5 6—2. as out of character as it is for him to be knocked out in the second round, it might be something he'll have to start getting used to. miriam walker—khan, bbc news. there was also bad news for britain's number one kyle edmund. he was on the wrong end of an upset, losing to the japanese qualifier yasutaka uchiyama in straight sets. and

of course, medvedev said great, i'll convey that to vladimir. he followed through by refusing to take a stand when putin ran a territorial land grab in the ukraine. if you are going to call out one president a russian, i don't know why you wouldn't call out the other. meanwhile the fbi was getting a fisa warrant using a dossier written up in opposition research paid for by a research firm hired by hillary clinton's campaign. and somehow the fbi treats it as gospel? that's wild. of course, william bar should express that. i have no problem with him saying now nutty this whole thing has been. we talked about this before. it's pretty wild. there are new wrinkles of course because we are suspecting the president was a russian agent all along. which like i said, you can't make this stuff up. but let's get back to william barr what can you tell us about that. >> the shoe on the other foot test is a good one. the 19-page memo is a highly technical legalistic analysis of one portion of a particular statute. to say he was criticizing the entire probe is

cheesy plastic button to meet with lavrov who humiliated her live on camera and made the statement to medvedevthe hot mic statement. having more flexibility after the election. trish: i'm talking about venezuela. >> but it's all connected. in cuba he assisted that regime to stay in place. all of this is connected because his motivation was driven by the belief that we are the problem. meaning america is the problem. if you are iran, venezuela, if you are cuba or russia, he would bend over backwards to facilitate that regime because he saw us as the problem. he listed the highest classified policy statement, leading from behind and strategic patience. what does that mean? you let others take the initiative. bad guys. trish: that's changing now and the world has to get used to it. i want to remind our viewers to check out your book it's called "why we fight." good title. especially right now. the american dream this jeopardy tonight. far-left democrats like elizabeth warren and alexandria ocasio-cortez are out there ramping up their socialist agendas. they want class warfare. they want to punish

medvedev, remember when he told me he was going to have more flexibility.ember when obama left off romney saying russia was a threat? remember when they had the failed reset. nick's missile defense and use in europe. and he had the $500,000 fee to speak in moscow, the sanctions until the end of 2016. if this is what you are going to judge is okay grounds for launching a counter intel investigation, we didn't even mention uranium one in there. i guess we could have had the fbi launch an investigation into obama for russia as well. >> yeah. the attorney general guidelines are very specific about what predication it takes to open an investigation. nothing or just mention amounts to that level of predication predication. you go back -- i go back to the leadership failure within that inner circle. this obviously was personal. we know that with the text between strok and page. i don't want anybody to think -- >> laura: we are not charging the rank-and-file of the fbi. we are judging the upper echelon of the fbi. we know who that is. stay there to release its own

of those meetings with the president and when president obama would meet with putin or president medvedev who was president at the time there was always a note taker. that's separate from the interpreter. i think that's getting really mixed up in the coverage of this. the interpreter does not take notes to report out to anybody. they're incapable of doing that. their job is to try to make that conversation happen. i oftentimes was the note taker in those meetings and so president obama always had a note taker. he always had an interpreter and he usually had seenior staff the national security adviser and then we always read those meetings out, a, to the press, by the way. we always had a readout after the meeting with the press and then, b, we wrote up a formal memorandum of that conversation to senior people so that we could conduct our foreign policy as an administration and not just as an individual. >> that's a good point because in the cases of these meetings often the u.s. press has been relying on readouts from the kremlin, not our own white house report on this. >> exactly. >> mic

they can cite the obama sound bite of him saying to medvedev i can be helpful after the election.> i was upset by that comment. i'm certainly upset when obama said that. i'm equally concerned about the policy that i see today. it's completely inconsistent with what defense and intelligence services know about the activity of the russians including targeting the united states and allies. that's what's so frustrating to me about this. the fact that they keep looking for permission to do something different with putin. here's the thing, if the president really said listen, i know he's a bad guy. he's doing bad things. i want to cut a deal for the betterment of national security for the united states on x. on missils on fill in the blank. that's one thing. we don't seem to be getting to that policy side. we were still in the notion that we'll continue to defend bad practices. by the way they did do really important things when he took office. trump did. on arming the ukraine and doing other things and sanctions. that was all really good. but the policy seems to have stopped. dead in i

in a conversation with medvedev, who is the cat's-paw for president putin, saying that he is not beingrd, as soon as i get by this election i will have flexibility. imagine if trump had said these things? but msa listening to that, it seems like trump is a guy who was left without a tear when the music stops, because everything that was regular and fine is now trump, i'm sorry, russia is back to the cold war, and i find russia to be more of a threat than you do, but the fbi is not supposed to be doing policy. that is not their job. >> tucker: why was there nobody -- there is a lot that we do not know, but from that story and nobody has contested the basic facts that i have seen, officials and the fbi sat down and decided that it is unacceptable for an elected leader to come to the policy conclusions, therefore there must be some sinister motive, why did no one in the fbi say, wait a second, this is not our job, we are not allowed to do this? >> because they did not start doing it in may 2017. in may 2017, tucker, all they did was as a formal paper matter they open an investigation spec

obama in a conversation with dmitry medvedev, basically the cats claw for putin, said thinking he's notng heard, as soon as i get by this election i will have more flexibility. i imagine if trump hadav said these sorts of things -- i must say listening to all that seems like trump is the guy who was left without a chair when the music stopped because all of a sudden, everything that was regular and fine is now -- now russia is back to being -- i guess we are back in the cold war. and i think i t probably find russia to be more of a threat than you do but the fbi is not supposed to be doing policy. if that's not their job. >> tucker: so why was there -- there's a lot that were don't know. but from that story and no one has contacted the basic facts that i have seen, officials and the fbi sat down and decided it is unacceptable for an elected leader to come to these policy conclusions, therefore there must be some sinister motive. why did no one in the fbi say wait a second, this is demonstrably not our job, we are not allowed to do this? >> because they didn't start doing it in may of 20

medvedev after the election, took out how to putin, they would be more concerned about the removal of defensive missiles from eastern europe, they would have been concerned about all of the things that hillary clinton tried to do to so-called "reset" the relationship with russia. this is a phony argument that the democrats are making, because they have nothing else. as part of the conspiracy two frame donald trump, which we now see playing out on the front page of "the new york times," this is where they end up. they end up in the loony bin. i must say, i am delighted that mazie hirono continues to go on television, make a fool of herself and the democratic party, and i hope she never stops! >> laura: vdh, you get to close it out. about 30 seconds. >> what happened in 2012, a more conservative bob mueller heard that open mike's conversation that obama did with the russiana quid pro quo and he said, my god, there was a russian reset, there was the romney, making fun of romney about flanked on the n threat, inviting putin to the middle east, hadn't been there in 40 years, the inaction t
