molly: thank you very much. weatherl cross has been an unexpected announcement by the country's president. he says he will not run for another tererm in 2020. it was widely thought he would try to stay in power. his government is accusesed of brutally suppressing protests that took place againsnst his third d term in office in 2015. visionaries, we inform the international community will will not go against what we promised. my mandate will end in 2020. i am committed and well-prepared with all my heart, mind, and strength to support the new president we will elect in 2020. let's cross back to canada where prime minister justin trudeau is close to achieving one of his campaign promises, legalizing marijuana. medical marijuana has been allowed in the country since 2001. now, it could be legalized for recreational use. canada is a step closer to legalizing marijuana. on thursday, senators voted to adopt the cannabis act, the bill that aims to allow the production and consumption of marijuana for recreational purpo

mollie: the question was a cartoonish question.p with our allies and how we are treating them and moving to north korea. but the way it was phrased was so over the top it's and reminder you should do a better job posing questions if you want to get a good answer. howie: what about his comment i am prepared but i don't have to be that prepared because it's all about attitude. susan: that was their classic move where they truncate the whole paragraph. if you listen to wholly what he said there, he said i have been preparing for a long time for this. if you listen to it in context, he wasn't saying i'm waltzing in without preparation. he said i have been preparing for a long time. howie: abby huntsman inadvertently referred to two dictators. mollie hemingway, susan ferrechio, juan williams. thanks very much for joining us. the president said coverage of his wife has been vicious. is he right? more on jeff sessions justice department obtaining emails of investigative reporters. so, what's new? we just switched to geico and got more. mo

mollie: the i.g.aid they couldn't determine whether waiting to handle the wiener laptop was based on bias. it's also true these weren't just about peter strzok and lisa page' texting their extreme bias. there were five different people in this probe texting insults against people who voted for trump. the attorney who was actually asking hillary clinton questions during that interview said i am with her when he did that. it's not necessarily -- the i.g. is careful to say, there is not hard evidence saying i am with her, therefore i'm letting her get off. this level of bias is problematic for two investigations. howie: journalists and pundits are cherry picking the evidence. i think the only common denominator is jim comey had flawed decision making. so that enables each side to say here is evidence that supports our contention. marie: right, this is the system we live in. what jim comey did was hurt hillary. howie: he didn't bring charges against her. marie: which the i.g. said was not good practice. t

molly: we do not meow what the rame is. some of the critics of the president have said that this has gone on too long. something the only investigation -- the only reason the invest because he has done nothing and as long as it is going makes the president look bad. if he is continuing to investigate, it would note an unusual length of timeator an investn of this complexity to continue. we have seen steady progress. we have seen 19 people indicted, 5 pleaded guilty. 20 now, with the addition of kilimnik. every single that manafort has sent is that he is fighting this and not considering caving including the fact that this new ctinnt is about allegedly tampering with witnesses. in addition to cupping a plea he is trying to lean on people not to testify. robe: we will be tracking paul manafort and his trial all summer. we have to leave you a few minutes ear your local pbs station which in turn supports washingtonweek. our conversation will continue online o the "washington week" extra. we will talk of a possible blue wave in

is that true or do you think this is all negotiations as molly says? >> i think structurally the relationship with canada is strong as it is with most of those g-7 nations. i mean, we look at for example, the tensions with germany, with real failure to spend on defense, and actually president trump's rhetoric has moved the needle there on nato spending, made it more capable. just had a major exercise with special forces. so the structural elements of the western alliance, western order remain there. the difficulty i think, though, in terms of the tariff commentary from the president's team, is that if you are trying to get a deal, and you are trying to pressure the canadians, as the president says he is to reach a better deal with the united states, by using this kind of rhetoric, he pushes trudeau, who is a liberal politician to trudeau's base. so trump's base may love what he's saying, but trudeau's base certainly will love saying no brave canada is standing up against evil trump. it moves that baseline for negotiations further away. it is the art of

how surprised should we be, molly?well, i had talked to some border patrol agents last month until today who had that same complaint. they said they didn't understand why the national guard wasn't being allowed to do as much. in particular, because the national guard was allowed to deploy closer to on the border, on the rio grande river, under the obama administration. so when they were deployed by the state of texas. so they didn't understand what the difference was. i asked the national guard. that was never really clarified except they're there in the support role for border patrol. they're supposedly freeing up border patrol by doing things like air surveillance, detecting migrant groups or smuggling and alerting border patrol. they're running surveillance equipment. even in those cases, the border patrol agents i talked to said because the national guard wasn't from here and weren't familiar were the landmarks around here, they had to be paired up with border patrol in those monitoring facilities. it wasn't really

i just want to first commend molly and the treasurer's staff. i think they've done really an amazing job for what they were given? i just think personally, it may actually be good not to focus on specific issues yet and just basic -- focus on the basics of how to create a public bank 'cause the issues could very well change over time. i mean, i totally agree affordable housing is the issue now, but if we put all hands on that, what if it changes in a few years? i think we need to focus now on just how to get a bank going, and then it can change over time, renewable energy, affordable housing, infrastructure, etcetera. and i think that the main reason we're doing this is because of divestment because public bank is inevitable and we're doing this because sf has always led the way with banning plastic bag, day marriage, and public bank tz. so i think sf can really lay the way in how to do this? i think when you look at what these current wall street banks invest in, bampg of america poured 14 billion into fossil fuels, and the taxpayer. so when yo
