delve deeper into this i am joined here at the big table by marcus kahn for analysis good to see you mr stein and claire richardson she joins us in washington claire let me start with you so what are the biggest takeaway today from president rob what would you say that takeaway is. well this is a truly a momentous moment in u.s. foreign policy history we heard donald trump reiterate a lot of his concerns about the iran nuclear deal that he had expressed beforehand remember it was one of his key campaign promises that he was going to pull the united states out of what he saw as a poorly negotiated a bad deal for the united states now of course that goes completely counter to what the united states european allies wanted to see we've seen weeks of lobbying by both chancellor merkel and french president and the new immigrants here in washington d.c. to try to convince him otherwise but he came out strongly today pointing to some of these issues that we've heard about before reiterating that he thinks that the deal is too weak that it doesn't address things like what he calls sunset clauses that

mr. roeszen stein to mention testifies not personally under investigation in the russia inquire aries. this is new information saying rosenstein had been explicitly asked by the president to mention russia in the comey firing memo. what do you think of that? >> what i think is we have enough information about this president and his attempts to control rosenstein and jeff sessions and to literally have them protect him from this investigation. i think it is clear that he's obstructed justice. i think that the more we delve into it, the more we see not only signs of it but actually efforts by this president to get them to basically protect him from the fact that he has colluded with russia. and that's it. i mean, you can call it any way that you would like to call it, but the fact of the matter is, that we see the evidence of it. we see what he said, you know, to jeff sessions and the way that he's treating jeff sessions. because jeff sessions said listen, i'm recusing myself. i'm not lying for you. i'm scared of this stuff. and i'm not about to get myself into a position where i can be

mr. rod rosenstein. >> please. i don't have much sympathy for all those steens and steins out there.nced stein. but then this guy's name should be whiner. >> anthony weiner. he's an exception to the rule. sometimes neither choice is great. you want to be a wiener or a whiner. >> there was some whining on reddit about the special prosecutor. does anyone else read the name robert mueller and pronounce it like bueller. but this is robert mueller, though he sometimes gets the ferris buhler treatment. >> did you talk with robert mueller about his investigation? >> sometimes it takes a stein to know one. dianne feinstein. >> yesterday, mr. rosenstein. >> mr. rosensteen, welcome. >> mr. rosenstein, thank you. >> just like feinstein. >> it's creating a monster. >> dr. frankenstein. >> reporter: jeanne moos, cnn, new york. >>> president trump knew about the hush money payment to stormy daniels
