what you see mike pompeo talking about is, i'll participate in anything. he has to do what he has to. but he also has to do what he wants to. when mike pompeo was a member of congress, he was one of the members who voted to hold eric porter in contempt on the guns issue and fast and furious. and the point for republicans doing that is when congress asks for something, the answer is yes. and it's yes as quickly as possible. for those people in the trump administration who have defied that, they do so at their own peril. some of whom have gotten away with it, but a lot of whom may not. >> we're also getting really close to donald trump. before it was cassidy hutchinson, and there was discussion -- i don't know who this person is, right? the idea of, who is this person you speak of. then you've got the idea of, well, it's this person. it's the chief aide of mike pence. now it's pompeo with -- it's mick mulvaney. it's mnuchin. you've heard of them. none of whom are coffee boys, right? well, they might be. they're chi latte people. i don't know what they're int

the january six committee is engaging with a former secretary of state mike pompeo. we know about that? >> we know that pompeo may be able to sit with the committee in the coming days. of course, the importance of pompeo is that he might be able to shed some light on the conversations that you have heard cassidy hutchinson describe a little bit of, this concern inside the white house that there were members of the cabinet and, perhaps, people in the senate, who would cooperate on invoking the 25th amendment and remove the former president from office in the wake of the riot and the attack on the capitol and, of course, the way he behaved that whole period. i think you might build a shed light on those questions because it might explain a little bit about why trump recorded that message on january 7th. there was concern and which we reported at the time that he was worried that republicans were done against them, including people in his cabinet. we will see whether pompeo dishes on exactly what was going on in those conversations. >> michael moore, i want to know what

i said, why has mike pompeo not denied it? >> how did he respond to that? >> oh, you know -- he didn't really -- it's totally nonsense. they all -- and then i got a call within an hour of trump hanging up -- and he did hang up on me in that conversation at the end of the call -- with a spokesperson for mike pompeo who had been avoiding me for months saying, okay, i've got something for you from a spokesperson -- he would not allow me to use his name when it happened -- from a spokesperson, there were no conversations about the 25th amendment. there were. it'll be interesting to see what he says when his hand is on the bible. >> do you think he could offer valuable testimony? >> you know, i think first of all on that, you know, hearing directly from him -- i know they've also spoken to mnuchin. again, they didn't pursue it. so, you know, there's that. but the mere fact that his two top guys talked about it as a possibility is an amazing insight into how worried they were that trump had completely lost control. so, that will be interesting. but he is a -- he

mike pence. now it's pompeo. it's to make mulvaney. it's mnuchin. you've heard of them, none of whom are coffee boys, right? but the ideas that may be, well i don't know, maybe chai latte. but they're getting closer and closer here. does that tell you something about the focus of the federal prosecutors now? >> i think it tells us that the focus is where it supposed to be. i don't know if it can make the jump on people were talking about, but now we could say there's an investigation on trump. i mean, i would assume these questions about trump would have been asked when folks were in the grander, where they answer not different questions. it's just that we are hearing, for the first time the confirmation that they were asking about trump. so, i don't agree quite there yet. nor will garland be rushed to shake that were investigating the former president. but they're certainly asking the right questions. and i think you could see how nervous trump's, because it seems like it may be accelerating his intentions to announce his candidacy. >> is the 25th

>> well, i think with regards to mike pompeo, as a secretary of defense. he in particular is someone that i can understand why you would want to talk to him. remember, at the last hearing, we heard how donald trump did nothing for the 187 minutes that the capitol was under attack. we heard from chief of staff of the joint chief of staff, mark milley, who we have not heard from mark pompeo, at the department of defense. and so to the extent that there was any requests and or communication, at the defense department, that would be the place to find it and so i imagine that is what they are looking at with regard to mike pompeo. >> peter, the committee as barb just said, in talks to speak with the former secretary of state, mike pompeo. this reminds people about top of the 25th amendment. are they right to go there? >> well i think it's important to understand what exactly the conversation and the hours and days after january six. remember of course, there was a big mood among democrats, even some republicans, on january, the late january six, and early janua

mike pompeo at one point called bar and asked about that. i learned that directly from the other side of the composition. it will be interesting to see mike pompeo will acknowledge it? >> fascinating, judgment think carl, thank you so much. more now on the new justice department reporting and what it might signal about how far prosecutors are willing to go and how hard they are willing to prepare to get there. cnn's kaitlan has been talking to her sources, joins us now. walk us through this potential justice department court battle over executive privilege. >> right, so anderson, today, we are learning that the justice department is gearing up to get ready to go to court, as they are investigating for criminal -- possible criminality of january 6 and the presidency. so, one of the things that evan perez and another reporter here and i are learning from several sources today is what the justice department, prosecutors and investigators want to get access to now -- is conversations that donald trump was having in the white house in the days be

and i said, "why won't mike pompeo deny it ey won deny it."tephen: never happened, but they're going to put his hand on a little black book, right? >> that's what i'm going to be listening to. and is he going to deny it under oath? and he's not. >> stephen: do you ever wish you had subpoena power? >> oh, it would be so good. it would be so good. >> stephen: we have to take a quick break but we'll be right back with more jonathan karl, everybody. stick around. kesimpta is an at-home treatment that may help you put these rms challenges in their place. kesimpta was proven superior at reducing the rate of relapses versus aubagio. and, when it's ready, it takes less than one minute a month to inject kesimpta. don't take kesimpta if you have hepatitis b, and tell your doctor if you have had it, as it could come back. kesimpta can cause serious side effects, including infections. while no cases of pml were reported in rms clinical trials, it could happen. tell your doctor if you had or plan to have vaccines, or if you are or plan to become pregnant.

capitol is in active discussions with former secretary of state mike pompeo for his testimony behind closed doors. sources familiar with the matter telling abc news. pompeo is tentatively scheduled to speak with the committee come the coming days, sources said. pompeo was among the few trumpa allies and officials that at least publicly stuck with the ex-president in the immediate aftermath of the attack. he said, quote, while we all think the violence that took place in the capitol was tragic, and i've watched away people walk away from the president and they are not listening to the american people, not remotely. pompeo played a critical role in the trump administration in the days after january 6th flagging to mark meadows that cabinet officials were in talks about the 25th amendment. in fact, here is how former white house aide cassidy hutchinson described a call between pompeo and her boss, chief of staff mark meadows. >> from what i understand it was more of a -- this is what i'm hearing. i want you to be aware of it, but i also think it's worth putting it on your radar because y

former trump secretary of state mike pompeo is in talks to give closed-door testimony. cassidy hutchinson earlier testified that she heard an exchange between mike pompeo and trump's former white house chief of staff centering on cabinet member conversations about possibly invoking the 25th amendment to remove trump from office. other possible witnesses include ginni thomas, the wife of supreme court justice clarence thomas. >> we certainly hope she will come in voluntarily, but the committee is prepared to contemplate a subpoena if she does not. >> liz cheney said the committee has not decided whether they will make criminal referrals of president trump. >> president biden taking a new step recovering from covid. the white house announced the president is able to get back to his regular exercise routine. he's almost symptom-free and his vital signs are normal. the president said he tested positive for covid last thursday. he met virtually with representatives from sk group about the plans to boost the workforce in the u.s. >> new developments with monkeypox. napa count

what can mike pompeo offer the committee that others can't? why do they want to talk to him? . >> yeah. he's probably got a lot of insight into what donald trump's mental state was leading up to and then after january 6th. and i think that the committee wants to know whether mike pompeo had any concerns about whether donald trump was fit to serve as president. now, secretary pompeo appears to have political ambitions and may want to run for president. so the last thing he is going to want to do is testify that will force him to say anything negative about donald trump. >> yeah. as the political reporter in me is fascinated by the fact that he may ultimately be forced to speak on camera in front of the committee. thank you for your time today. >>> up next, the disastrous flood anything eastern kentucky. much of the water rising at night while most people were asleep. locals say they still don't know who is among the missing. >>> russia responds. we have cnn exclusive reporting who the kremlin now wants in exchange for paul whelan and wnba star brittney griner. i it and a certi

another person they're interested in speaking with is former secretary of state mike pompeo. pompeo acknowledged today on fox that he is engaged with the committee about a possible interview. we thought it could happen as soon as this week. it looks like those negotiations are ongoing. but we know the committee has spoke to a number of cabinet officials, including the former acting secretary of defense, chris miller. they've also spoken to eugene scalia, bill barr, jeffrey rosen, and the former treasury secretary stevmnuchin. that's new reporting that we were able to confirm today. many of these players could provide the committee information is about those conversations related to the 25th amendment. we know that was an active conversation in the days after january 6th. marc short, the former chief of staff to mike pence, said today on our air that those conversations never really went that far because there wasn't enough time to physically remove the former president from office. there was a weaker select in his administration by that point. but we also know the committee s

mike pompeo could sit down for a deposition with the house select committee as soon as this week. and we've seen more indications this week that the other investigation, the justice department's criminal probe, has progressed further than previously thought. late today, cnn learned that the justice department obtained a second word for that man, right wing attorney john eastman's krel cell phone, this is one permitting them to look at the contents of the cell phone. eastman is the one who cooked up the dubious rationale for overturning the election. also cassidy hutchinson, former white house aide to mark meadows, is cooperating with the department of justice. that's according to a source with knowledge of the discussions. and it comes with a caveat. we don't yet know the extent of her cooperation. we're learning, though, that she's not alone. this morning, an acquaintance of hers, alyssa farah griffin, said she is, quote, aware of other white house officials who is been reached out to by the department and are planning to cooperate, end quote. she was more specific when asked abo

and we have former secretary of state, former cia director, mike pompeo. mr. secretary, thank you for taking time. i want to get to your thoughts on abe. >> well, griff, thanks for having me on today. the world's going to miss someone who thought about the world in a very realistic way. and he didn't pretend it's as he wished it were. he was prepared to convince the japanese people to build out relationships with the united states and i first met him back in 2015, so goodness, 17 years ago when i was a member of congress and he spoke to a joint session of congress, not something that many leaders get to do, but it was a possibility and he became the prime minister again because he understood what they needed to do. they had historically had been a nation that hadn't armed itself. he knew the chinese communist party was a way for the region. and from a geopolitical strategist standpoint, the world will miss prime minister abe. griff: you met him on many occasions. was there a moment that stands out? >> you know, we worked very closely as we were preparing for o

joining me, former secretary of state mike pompeo. he is a fox news contributor. what will getting rid of more than 60,000 service members do to our military readiness? >> thanks for having me on tonight. you mention the recruiting problems we are already facing. when you make military -- you don't do the right things by focusing on its wartime mission and then you add to cutting between 10% and 15% of all national guardsmen, this is really dangerous. xi jinping and vladimir putin aren't worried about the vaccines. they are worried about making their military's more capable. we should be focused on the same thing. there is a real risk to readiness and making sure that we have units capable of deploying should something be required of them. this is not based on science. it makes no sense and i hope this president will change his ways. and if there is a president after him he should reinstate every one of these folks. they are trying to serve voluntarily on behalf of the united states of america. >> raymond: what we are learning about herd immunity and so many peopl

another man who knew abe well former secretary of state mike pompeo and mr.ur program. tough news to take here. want to share a moment that we found four years ago in the summer of 2018, you with the former prime minister. he was a friend to america, sir. how do you remember him? >> bill, he certainly was. i am heartbroken this morning. heartbroken for he and his family and praying for them and all of the japanese people. he was relentless in putting them first, the japanese people first. but a dear friend of the united states. he knew that a successful united states and a good relationship with us made things better for his own people. i first met him in 2015 after he spoke to a joint session of congress when i was a junior member of congress from kansas. then god got to know him better as cia director and pushing back on chairman kim in north korea he was our best partner in helping us deliver an outcome for the world to keep our country safer. he was a good friend. he and the president had a great relationship and always so kind to me. the world is far wor

we also are expecting the former secretary of state, mike pompeo, to come in this week and have a closed door interview with the house select committee. we know from reporting from reporter john carl previously that pompeo was in touch with steven mnuchin and and the special envoy to ireland did resign in protest that day and probably would be in touch with people at that level. there's a lot going on here. the house is really looking into this idea of what was going on in the cabinet and they've already spoken to gene scalia, the labor secretary, who wrote donald trump a memo having him to call a cabinet meeting after january 6th when they were all panicking. we'll have to see what emerges with this new testimony. >> thank you so much for laying that all out for us. joining me is mark short, former chief of staff to vice president mike pence. mark was recently under subpoena. he testified before a grand jury in the justice department's investigation into january 6th. it's good to see you. thanks for coming in. >> thanks for having me. >> you have mulvaney, steven mnuchin, pompeo, what t

we have been on this tiktok thing since mike pompeo was in there and the state department.e any reason why we should trust the folks at bite dance? 's or any reason we should trust them? >> no. they may have given false testimony to congress. employees at tiktok testified to congress, we now have learned that was false testimony about security provisions and how they handled american data. what we know is tiktok has granted communist china access to our browser histories and our location. when you're talking about browser history that's one thing, that is a way for china to have a marketing edge over american companies but when you're talking about location, that is a national security threat and that is why we, the republicans on the energy and commerce committee as well as the house oversight committee are demanding answers from tiktok and the democrats are sitting back and continued to give china a free pass. >> laura: meanwhile the dnc is going all in on tiktok. according to politico they took the dive into the platform four months ago and officials are so far happy wit

here now is mike pompeo, former secretary of state, fox news contributor. read to see you tonight. from the beginning that this administration was serious about crippling the war effort. they would not be funding at through the back door by continuing to do huge business with china. >> laura, thank you for having me on and that's exactly right. not only are we funding it, they stole a lot of intellectual processes for the semiconductors and microelectronics. the woman you're just speaking to transferred here back in the united states and now they're selling it to vladimir putin and his war machine can continue to expand varied these are hard problems but the administration has no plan or strategy and they are not willing to confront the hard truth that's the partnership that xi jinping and china calls unlimited. unlimited friends. unwilling to confront the challenge that that presents and be serious. i promise you, if an american company was trying to buy a piece of property, it wouldn't happen and yet we are naive. we are silly about the way we think about protecting the american

mike pompeo is the former secretary of state and a fox news contributor and he joins us now to react.ieve the white house press secretary read that from her stupid binder that nancy should be careful? >> jesse, that's really dangerous way to think about america's place in the world. to think that some knuckle head chinese communist party bureaucrat, some propagandist could go out and make a threat third in line for the presidency of the united states of america and travel her travel plans to travel to a country she wants to go see and visit. it is part and partial of a weak foreign policy an administration scared of its own shadow. this is less than 24 hours after the president is on the phone be with xi jinping? this suggests that that call went very poorly that xi jinping believes they can move about the cabin pretty darn freely they can't intimidate us. sign me up, it's a strange place to be, but i'm with nancy on this one. >> jesse: i'm with nancy too, even swalwell. i would be even eric swalwell if he wanted to spend the night taiwan and spend the night fancy fancy hotel and stea

interviews that the january 6th committee conducted and this is regarding how mark meadows and mike pompeo perceived donald trump's state of mind. >> i thought it was a couple of calls where, you know, meadows and/or pompeo but more meadows, how did the president -- pompeo might say, how is the president doing? meadows would say, well, he's in a really dark place. but here's one, for example, on the 7th of january. so this is the day after, right? potus is very emotional and in a bad place, meadows. >> we know cassidy hutchinson has testified about conversations among cabinet members. mike pence was presented with this idea himself. how much in your reporting do we know about how serious trump might have been about attempting to use the military? we know mark milley would have said absolutely not. >> joy, mark milley would have said absolutely not. he was on tenor hooks that donald trump would try such a move, a banana republic junta kind of move. that was a worry of his. as we write in our book, what phil rutger and i wrote about the catastrophic year, 2020, milley was prepared for this m

mike pompeo now confirms he is also in talks with the january sixth committee to possibly testify. he told foxnews he is still trying to figure out whether he will do it. >>> in the meantime, betty thompson says the committee had formalized a system to share evidence and witness transcripts with the justice department for its ongoing criminal investigation. as nancy pelosi gears up for a potential trip to taiwan, china's president with a stern warning, today. the threat he delivered to the united states but does the rhetoric match the reality? north korean dictator says he has nuke u.s. allies responded to thes threat. and >>> and he is a ready todonald use them in a military conflict. now, his closest neighbor and u.s. ally response to the threat. >>> mcdonald's plan burger available as they say for a limited time only. it turned out very limited. why they are dumping the veggie option. >>> the facts. the truth. the news back in 60 seconds. mail letters ship packages anytime anywhere for less a lot less get our special tv offer a 4-week trial plus postage and a digital scale go to

when you have republicans, mike pompeo saying on twitter he would go with pelosi to taiwan, republicans seemingly are being very unified whereas democrats seem to be more divided. in this sense, what is also worth noting is if there are milita threats from china, this would be directed at taiwan. taiwan stands in the crossfire, however this is not just in the terms of the damage to taiwan and the threats. but in terms of the potential to embroil the u.s. which is a concern. military tension has continued for sometimes they are not received as a threat and taiwan. chinese military threats on a nearly daily frequency becomes background noise so people do not necessarily perceive the influence he could have for geopolitics. they might just go on as usual. juan: you mentioned chinese military exercises. there have been on occasion also periodically u.s. warships that have gone through the taiwan straits and obviously china has protested on numerous occasions that if you believe in a one china policy, then it argues the taiwan straits are not international waters. the u.s. ansome other count

secretary steve mnuchin and could get a closed-door deposition from trump's secretary of state mike pompeo week is over. these latest high-level trump officials joining into this investigation is pretty astounding. several other who is have been in the hot seat have been put there by the january 6th committee. so what were their discussions about possibly invoking the 25th amendment to remove trump from office? let's discuss with legal analyst and former new york city prosecutor paul kallen. good to see you. when you look at the many people of interest who were once inside the white house, close to the former president, who the committee is finding cooperation, what are some of the questions you suppose are being asked of them in terms of whether invoke ing the 25th amendment was in serious consideration. >> it certainly sounds like they are looking at the stability of president trump. if you're looking at the 25th amendment was invoked, you're talking about was he incompetent to handle the job. and of course, mick mulvaney, like many of these other people, was right in a good seat to watc

here's former secretary of state mike pompeo. nancy, i'll go with you. but not freedom-loving taiwan. see you there. there are those on the right who say she should go. the hill has this headline today. he slams pelosi visit. she will only make it worse. what do you think about her potential visit? >> this is such an interesting standoff. you know, the speaker of the house has the right to go to visit taiwan if she wants to. congress is a coequal branch of government and as a leader in congress, it's important for her to visit our allies and taiwan is a democratic ally. china has actually made it more likely she's going to go. if she doesn't go now, people will think she didn't go because china instructed her not to, and china has no right to instruct any u.s. official, whether it is a congresswoman or someone in the biden administration not to go and visit taiwan. if we back down now, you know, what will china do the next time someone wants to visit taiwan? their response will be even stronger and more threatening. i do think china may take some provoca

former secretary of state, mike pompeo, is scheduled to meet with the committee in the coming days. nbc news has not independently confirmed those reports. former acting chief of staff, mulvaney, testified to the committee. he said he was asked about the text message he sent to rnc chairwoman, rhoda mcdaniel, in the days after the 2020 election. meanwhile, we have another update from committee chair, benny thompson, on friday. on whether the committee can call mike pence or trump himself to testify. >> [inaudible] >> over on the justice department side, nbc news reporting that the doj has been asking questions about trump's actions leading up to january six. at this point they have not opened a criminal investigation of him. help me sort all of this out. all i'm glad to welcome former prosecutor and analyst, and friend, cynthia. cynthia, good morning. thank you for being here. what does it tell you that we are now seeing trump allies and former cabinet members, like steve, and mike pompeo, reportedly engaging with the 16 committee without even having to be served with a subpoena? >>

multiple sources telling cnn that the former secretary of state mike pompeo could sit for deposition as soon as this week. the committee shift to cabinet level officials seems to indicate they are interested in conversations about invoking the 25th amendment after the attack on the capitol. pompeo would join the list of several cabinet level officials to meet with the committee. and that panel isn't the only one moving forward. it's now clear the doj hasn't been dragging its feet. where it ends up is not entirely certain, but the doj seems to have its march of orders in place. we're going to follow those footsteps and dive into how far the doj has reached into the trump administration. and specifically where federal prosecutors are now focusing their efforts. according to "the washington post," quote, there are two principle tracks of the investigation, unquote. the first, seditious conspiracy. in other words, the same charges the department has brought against defendants in groups like the proud boys and of course the oath keepers, the same groups the january 6th committee attempted

their side of the story is at least heard, which the fact that it could actually reach as for as mike pompeo the best editors i had said you're waiting to get more, publish the little you got. more will come in. publish what you got and more will come in. this is our cnn reporting on pompeo. the potential appearance comes as the committee has an increased interest. a source to the committee says they are interested in conversations surround ing the 25th amendment after the events of january 6th. we saw that from secretary scalia, who the committee has released some of his testimony that after january 6th, a number of trump loyalist, the people who stuck with donald trump to the end were thinking even though there's only a couple weeks left, we should remove him. >> and even kevin mccarthy brought that up with other republicans. this was something that was clearly whether it was within republican lawmakers but within the cabinet was a real discussion being had because of the fact that time and time again, the president was sticking with his attempt to get his vice president to go along with i

. >> it's possible they could speak with mike pompeo as soon as next week. pompeo talked about his interaction with the committee this morning on fox. >> we've had discussions with them about potentially appearing before them, trying to make sure we understand what it is they're asking for. as i always did when i was in service to america, i'm happy to cooperate with things that are fair and transparent and deliver good outcomes for the american people. i'll always do that. >> today you're a no. >> you mean i'm testifying? >> yes. >> we're trying to figure it out. i want the american people to have the full story of things that happened in the trump administration. >> let's go to melanie zanona. melanie, who else is the committee speaking with or trying to speak with? >> reporter: it is a growing rift. you are right the committee has begun to focus on trump's cabinet and conversations about potentially invoking the 25th amendment to remove him from office. my colleagues reported today the committee has interviewed treasury secretary steve mnuchin. we also kn

is why i think you're starting to hear rumblings about mike pence running against donald trump, mike pompeontis, tim scott, nikki haley. those are conversations i don't think you would have had six or eight weeks ago before the hearings started. >> interesting. tim, do you buy it? >> on the one level, i kind of buy it. we do focus groups with trump voters, and it is true in the last month or so you've heard from republican voters who like thinking, maybe the drama is too much. it's time to move on. the problem is we've all been through this before. in order to kill the monster, you have to go at him and put a stake through his heart. and none of the republicans are willing to do it. i feel like i'm going through the same thing i went through in 2016 when we tried to stop trump with a conservatives against trump path. look at pence. he won't testify to this committee. mike pence is the one who could reveal just how derelict trump was that day. ron desantis says he wants to challenge trump, but all he ever does is talk about how great donald trump is when asked. i'm skeptical that the people
