. >> martha: the other big story tonight, bombshell allegations from controversial author michael wolff best seller fire and fury. you remember some of the push back he got about some of the so-called facts that were in that book and people written about who claim that was not the case at all in various instances. now he has upcoming sequel and little tidbits are starting to leak out. in that he claims that robert mueller drew up a three-count obstruction of justice indictment against president trump. now, a spokesman for robert mueller, special counsel says there was no such document. denies those allegations. remember, very rarely have we heard that team speak out. and the other time as well it was to say, you know, that's not the case, it had to do with michael cohen and a false report. it time they are coming forward tonight and saying this is not the case either. here now sean spicer spokesman for america first action and chris hahn former aid to senator schumer. thank you both for being here. good to have you here tonight. >> great to be here. >> martha: sean, let me start with yo

according to "the guardian" michael wolff's new book, which nbc news has not seen.ew book alleges that there was a draft indictment sitting on robert mueller's desk accusing donald trump accused of three counts of obstruction of justice. as soon as this story hit yesterday morning robert mueller's spokesman flatly denied it. saying that no such document exists. and, in fact, i was told that once the mueller team went down the road of deciding not to make a prosecutorial decision which they say explicitly in their report they decided not to do, there was no talk of charges and no memos contemplating potential obstruction of justice. that's not the direction they went. that report appears to be false. mueller. was team is denying it and i am told that is not the subject of mueller's appearance today at 11:00 a.m., stephanie. >> kelly, take me to the hill. congress not in session right o now. most congress people are in their home districts. what are you hearing where you are? >> we reached out to various lawmakers and i would expect based on what we have seen unfoldin

. >> bill: michael wolff, not bob woodward. >> he is not coming on to respond to that.right now other than we'll hear from robert mueller. martha, you have been listening to this. you just wonder if anything is about to change at the 11:00 a.m. eastern time. robert mueller could have easily released a statement. he could have put out a written statement but he is choosing, we assume, to stand up publicly before the american people at that lectern in a few moments to address the nation. >> there is no other way to look at this in this moment other than that robert mueller, who is a long, upstanding member of the washington community, washington, d.c. community, wants to have his moment to say his piece on this matter. and i think we have every reason to assume that judge napolitano is right. he won't come out and say he found anything different from what we think he found. it does remind me of waiting for the moment when james comey came to the lectern and talked about his findings on hillary clinton and throughout the entire course of that statement by james comey, who

one thing i can tell you that this is not about, chris, is that report yesterday about michael wolff's book alleging that there was a draft indictment of donald trump for obstruction of justice. something that robert mueller's team denied the moment that story appeared. he will not be addressing that today. that is not what this is about. something bigger and broader potentially. we'll see robert mueller on the seventh floor facing reporters. he will not take questions but he will make a statement that the country will be seeing and watching. >> thank you so much for that. i want to bring ari back in. we heard ken bring up the fact that there was this question about the testimony that congress wants to hear from robert mueller. jerry nadler, the chairman of the judiciary committee said to rachel maddow last week, and he doesn't want to participate in anything that he might regard as political spectacle. it is hard to get more of a spectacle than people will see this as. they have desperately been waiting to hear from robert mueller himself. give us your big picture of this. what are we

but they love to pop up people like the pillar of society michael avenatti, and the con artist michael wolff, remember wolf, he was the media mob's favorite darling because he hated trump. last year given hours and hours of airtime spreading anti-trump lies featured in his book, lied about me in that book. and i confronted him in a story, he never bothered to call me. and confirmed, i said that is a lie. what you said was a lie. i don't know. wolfson accuracies are so blatant in numerous, he was forced to admit that he was not a journalist. his job has nothing to do with the truth. that's not how the media presented. he is out with another brand-new book, full of lies apparently again claiming that mueller's team drafted an indictment against president trump. only the second time in the special counsel office existence that they felt compelled to come out about michael wolf's lying book and say what he is claiming is false. the second book in a row, michael wolf peddling lies that the media absorbs and loves, this from a person that fake new cnn conspiracy tv, msnbc, they worship. we do need

a report in "the guardian" about a book by michael wolff. the special counsel drew up an indictment against president trump. tom winter is outside federal court in new york. tom, more on why you're there in a minute, but what is the special counsel's office saying about this report? >> well, geoff, we can take a look at the statement and put it on screen and read it altogether. it won't take very long. it says the documents described do not exist. that is a pretty blatant, but a pretty categorical denial by peter karr. it a rare statement as you suggested. we receive very few on the record statements during the course of robert mueller's investigation and fairly definitive. it also just doesn't make a lot of sense. mueller was clear in his report that the idea of indicting the president was just not something they went down that path. they did not go down the path of figuring out whether they could or should because this office of legal counsel doj decision in policy that says you can't indict a sitting president. it does not make a lot of s

second time in the special counsel office existence that they felt compelled to come out about michael wolff's lying book and say what he is claiming isf' false. the second book in a row, wolff f peddling lies that the media absorbs and loves, this from a person that fake news cnn, conspiracy tv, msnbc, they worship. we do need the libel laws in the country changed, especially slander against public figures. i would be really wealthy if they can do that. nicholas sandmann, that 16-year-old kid, maga had, he will be a billionaire because of what the corrupt media did when they slandered, smeared, besmirched him for days on end even when we knew the truth. at least let's start with loser pays a system to get rid of the slipip and fall attorneys and losers like wolff and avenatti, they can no longer be able to profit from slandering other people on the so-called news networks. it turns out acts-first cnn, msnbc, they don't give a rip about truth. liars, conspiracy theorists, spreading a hoax. that's what they have done for two plus years to the american people. joining us now, fox news legal anal

had been speculation that he would be -- that he could potentially respond to some claims in michael wolff'sted claims, about what exactly they considered during the investigation, but "washington post" this morning sort of knocks that down >> yeah. so as eamon said we'll have to see what he lays out in these statements but as eamon mentioned he has been in protracted negotiations with house democrats over whether or not to testify on capitol hill currently the expectation is that he would come at some time in the coming weeks. he would make a public opening statement, but then testify privately. house judiciary committee chairman jerry nadler said that mueller wanted to remain above the political spectacle, above the political fray we'll see if he can accomplish that during his statement here right now, washington has been caught off guard by this announcement most lawmakers are at home in their districts traveling overseas we are expecting to hear from house speaker nancy pelosi later on this afternoon so we'll see if what he says in the coming minutes moves the needle at all and what the
