michael moore wants you to believe him that the tax cuts are as bad as isis, i guess.ic strategist kristin han. this is a little overrigged, isn't it? >> it's not just that, it's irresponsible rhetoric. it's the type of rhetoric we've come to expect from michael moore, and it distracts from, you know, what's actually true about this tax bill. it was a purely partisan bill that was passed that added nearly $2 trillion to the debt and didn't do enough for, you know, middle income and low income americans. elizabeth: but what? here's the thing, and here's the fact, madison. i hear what kristin is saying. 60% of u.s. households get more in the way of government benefits than they pay into the system in federal income taxes. that includes a lot of middle income. we understand, madison, that you want to get middle income families, their numbers up. but if it's an act of terror, madison, then i guess you can call chuck schumer, ted kennedy, dick gephardt, all the men and women who voted for tax cuts over the years, ted kennedy and chuck schumer voted for tax cuts and so did j

. >>> joining me now is michael moore, a former u.s. attorney for the middle district of georgia. michael, first, your reaction to cohen's comments there and his total 180 turn on the president. >> you know, it is not surprising at all. i mean most of the time when somebody gets in trouble, they look for a way ultimately to help themselves and i think he has realized that the president is not going to be loyal to him and he doesn't have any hope of a pardon at this point. i think he also was sending a good signal and i'm sure bob mueller's team knows this, he's got more information and he can talk and it has really been sort of a stroke of genius on his part and his lawyer's part to keep that information out there, so that he can get additional information now, after this charge, and he will be eligible for what is called a rule 35 under the federal rules and that allows a prosecutor to come in and ask the judge to reduce the sentence even further. so that is still out there as a possibility. i think he is telling us that. but it is certainly a remarkable fall from grace. >> is tha

about it with cnn contributor wesley lawrie, a national reporter for "the washington post" and michael mooreformer u.s. attorney for the middle district of georgia. gentlemen, welcome back, and michael, let me start with you with the legal question here. after congress and the president signed that bill, zeroed out the penalty for not buying health care coverage, was this decision that we saw, this ruling that we saw from judge o'connor, more likely? >> it was probably more likely. i don't think it's well founded orwe well grounded. interesting that people chowing down at the public trough, these state attorneys general who brought the case, are eagle to meddle with things that they're not really affected by. the decision, i think it was overbroad. i think when you look at it, typically a judge if there's a way to respect the intent of congress -- and congress did not strike down the whole law most recently -- then he should have followed through. it's way overbroad and i think likely to be quickly appealed. >> wesley, i want to get to you in a moment, but striking down the whole law, where

michael moore conspiracy theories about the bush family.ou even commented publicly about him. >> he's bad. they can say, how can you criticize him if you haven't seen the movie. it's just my problem, i don't want to pay one dime that might end up in his pocket. he is a below the belt guy, he knows because my family are public persons, we don't have any access to making him tell the truth. he made some comment, i understand, and the documentary, that is giving him all kinds of liberal fame, that we havery a billion, $200 million out of the saudis, or we were enraged by that. he does it in the way that there is no libel. i don't like him and i don't know him and i don't want to meet him and i don't like his movie and i'm not going to see it. how is that? >> sean: did you like to fill -- would you like to fill in on my talk show? miller, when he spoke at the republican convention, had some incredible harsh criticism of the democratic party. he said, he asked, where is the bipartisan it's a trip when you need it most. he talked about a manic ob

show their own anger their own ease with the french government's current policies led by emmanuel michael moore ready we've seen some of those tensions between the police and the protesters so we thought we'd give you an inkling of what we do to try and stay safe when we're on to the streets when we're in these protests and that we were covering them so take a sneak look at what we do to prepare for a protest. if there is one thing the french really know how to do it's protest at all t. we believe that the best way to tell a story is to really get to the heart of it and that's essentially what we try to do as a team in the protests. thank . you. but this brings its own difficulties and dangers so how do we try and stay safe well firstly we always carry a medical kit now as well as the basics i think that these little i washed pods are with their waiting gold particularly after being taken i asked. as you can see tear gas is being fired by the police. this chilly gas going everywhere now tear gas is an irritant to particular if you're always you know is your mouth and your lungs. things and its

it's the first time i've been frightened in two years since michael moore. clearly, he is not checked his cholesterol. [laughter] what if cnn? their next up will reporting the news from underneath their desks. i don't remember this reaction when obama went through three secretary of defense, each with shorter runs. here's a thought. could it be mattis to the job trump asked him to do it now it's done wanted a new guy to do a new thing? mattis kind of set that thing in his letter he said that under trump mattis says the defense department improves our forces ready and it boost capabilities and global influence. guess the press missed that. even more, the script has flipped. lefties praising trump over syria and righties screaming their blood he had off. this is what happens when the president with the vision untethered to ideology. the house passed a bill to fund the wall which upsets one side. trump was out of the syria which is off the other end passes, justice for which knows i can do before it seems like the alarm is more emotional than factual and about

friends who live outside cuba and also get all the information that's available on the internet michael moore i found that getting it there are more she says that this is going to be much more comfortable she can actually get online from our home or from work not outside on the street she can actually surf the web like people do everywhere else in the world now the way this works is you have to wait for the state phone company expects that to send you a text message advising you that you are now eligible to sign up for the plan like gary here who just received his message and he's about to sign up for the least expensive of the plans that are available now for those of us who are used to having data readily available on our smartphones this is nothing short of revolutionary unfortunately i'm still waiting for my message and so i'm still offline. time to look at the top stories here at al-jazeera turkey is intelligence chief has briefed u.s. senators about his country's investigation into the murder of the saudi journalist jamal khashoggi there's growing pressure on the white house to hold sau

go to washington and change the tone, and since he has been there, i'm not talking about the michael moore's or the pundits on tv. but former vice president george bush is screaming. ted kennedy regularly calls a president a liar. have you heard the leaders of the democratic party that shrill? >> i've heard them shrill and i've heard of some of ours shrill in the past but i never felt the claimant like it is no now, nor the shrillness of the political opposition. >> it hurts? >> well you expect some of it, but when it's your son and they call him a liar, when they impugn his motives, it hurts a lot. you think i feel strongly about it, talk to barbara bush. >> he just tells me not to watch. >> i read recently that she won't read "the new york times" anymore. >> i'm whining much more publicly than he is too because i think they have gone too far. i think they are advocates for the democrats, i think they had lost the objectivity that they did have many years ago, and, you have people in there that smeared george and slam him every day, and you see subjectivity creeping into the news columns, i

joining us now, michael moore, former u.s. rney for the middle district of georgia, and ryan riley, justice reporter for huffpost. welcome back, both of you. michael, let me start with you and i want you to listen to john dickson and his white house counsel and his suggestion to the democratic house. >> the house is going to have little choice the way this is going other than to start impeachment proceedings. >> what's your take on that, little choice? >> it's a big day any time there is a federal prosecutor that says the president is involved in a federal crime. you're hearing the death rattle of the presidency of this administration. i think it's certainly time to pick out the cemetary and we're at a point where we're starting to see panic in the white house. we're seeing some moves, too. let me tell you why i say that. i'm particularly interested in the whole nick ayres transition. president trump moving him in, there's something else afoot there. you can't read the reports, you can't read about the congressional testimony,

. >> i'm amazed that michael moore is so distraught that james mattis is leaving. such a fan of mad dog? they are all in the most boring sequel of "scream." these networks have become 24-hour hysteria channels. the pauses, dramatic pauses. you are so phony when you do that! can it be that mattis fulfilled the job he was supposed to do and now trump wants somebody else to do a different job? if you read the letter, mattis said, we went in there, we did this, we helped bolster the military. these are all the things he was supposed to do. and thou trump, i want somebody else. beside the fact that c and then claims the world has been shaken, but obama went through ? secretary defense secretary's? in less time. i don't remember cnn having a mental meltdown on tv. >> then there was just a transition. >> it was a transition! >> at that time as i mentioned yesterday, president obama's national security and that they wrote afterwards that they were against what president obama decided because they advise something differently on the cereal, but they didn't resign. >> i don'

>> michael moore's film? >> see fahrenheit. >> it's worth it. >> you will see why the collective action is important and how in this society there's emphasis on preventing that from happening. block can. [inaudible question] [inaudible question] what are more accessible ways to get involved. >> what aring accessible ways to get involved. >> what you asking in. >> if you aren't able to -- higher education. >> i have a full-time job or can't pay for it. things like that. >> that to me is about -- this is what our responsibility, those who actually have certain kind of privileges in institutions and knowledges as well that we can share, is this where is popular education really matters. i'm a real deep believer in popular education sites, where in fact you're not just talking to students in your classroom, but in fact -- and there's so many centers robbed the country now where people are doing this kind of work. so i think that the involvement comes from a politicized consciousness of what in fact are the issues

michael moore giving a speech that donald trump was dropping a bomb into washington for most people in america. >> because people wanted the swamp drained, except it didn't get drained. >> they wanted the swamp drained and i think you mentioned in the introduction, which is too long on me, i worked for santa cruz, we went against donald trump thi42 times. the sentiment, that occurred in the general election, pennsylvania, michigan, iowa, ohio, states like that, because of the message, it absolutely is a fight back against the establishment. people are sick and tired and fed occupy with much of what they see going on with what they have defined as coastal elites. >> without a doubt. i understand that. i think all of the people who voted for him were sick of it, were certainly not banking on the fact that he could be influenced by foreign governments. they weren't thinking about saudi arabia. >> and i think they thought he would not be. he's above that. >> coming up. >>> the dow set to take another tumble, the opening bell is next. [leaf blower] you should be mad at leaf blowers. [beep]

shimon prokupecz, renato mariotti, and michael moore. what in the world is happening?t, shimon, i digress because it is breaking news. there's been all this intrigue surrounding the mystery court case related to mueller's investigation, and there's new movement tonight from the supreme court. tell us what's going on. >> yeah. so this is one of the big mysteries in this investigation. mueller has been trying to get information from someone, an institution, some company that has been fighting this subpoena. it's a grand jury subpoena. it's for information, and this company has been fighting it. they just lost the most recent battle, so now they've taken it up with the supreme court. what's interesting here is the few clues that we do have is that this is a foreign company that is owned by a foreign state nation, and therefore they're arguing that divulging any information would violate laws in their own country, and that is why they should not have to cooperate with the mueller investigation. they've already lost here on the appeals within the appeals court. they're now

so this, if you remember michael moore's move by bowling for columbine, he pointed out how cable made us crazy because we were immersed in stories of kids who were abducted. now, kids are almost never abducted except by the noncustodial parent. but it happens in this country, there are atrocities, and the media environment put it all in our faces in the '80s. by the '90s with all the missing kids, the milk cartons, all that stuff, americans -- not canadians and not europeans -- developed the idea that if i take my idea off my kids, someone's going to snatch them. so we started teaching our kids, stranger danger. don't leave your kid unsupervised even in a department store. so if you raise kids to fear others, to think the world is dangerous, you're going to the raise them in ways that are not conducive to letting them fly. the job of a parent is to work him or herself out of a job. and i feel my parents did that. that's what parents did. but now they don't do it so well, and i'm speaking about me and greg and all of our friends. it's hard to do this. that's beam number one. beam numbe
