detectives robert fitzgerald and peter louzan were assigned to the case. >> the thing we needed to do was to get marckensy's cooperation. >> reporter: since the woman trusted marckensy, detectives wanted him to keep playing the role of the bad guy. he didn't hesitate. that's got to be really daunting. >> it was kind of cool you know in a way. you know, that's like 007 type thing. >> reporter: detectives then devised a plan. they rigged his car with cameras and audio recording devices. >> the microphone was hanging over here, and under my seat here i had a phone. >> reporter: and they asked marckensy to set up another meeting with the woman. the location, this large walmart parking lot directly across the street from the police station. we can literally see the police department? >> yeah. i mean, you can throw a rock and hit the police station from here you know. >> reporter: marckensy, the newly minted informant, alerted the police the meeting was set. >> all units. >> reporter: a team of detectives raced to the parking lot to get in position. >> it's an intense moment because we -- y

one wants a deal and leaking to the press and the hard-liners led by robert light houser and peter navarro who tell the president the chinese can't be trusted so when they try to walk back, trump put the hardliners in the driver's seat why not. they're right. you may not like the way the president conducted policy via tweet but he is right to play hard ball here and the chinese know it. that is why a deal is on the table. they could go back to ten days ago that they were happy with and the trump will give them a stay of execution on the higher tariffs. sound thought number two let's say it doesn't happen. the 25% tariffs go into effect and the end of the world happens, china retaliates, it will be negative for the economy but i'm less worried about it than most of the experts why? because trump watches the dow like a hawk, the equivalent of the nielsen weighting and this gives influence of high dollar stocks like apple and boeing and targets of people republic if they decide to go tit-for-tat. because if he witnesses a climb in the dow he'll get stocks rallying again but not only that i ha

and peter salinger working for kennedy with the fbi files. robert kennedy agreed to wiretaps to mlk. uneven is vice president. the abuses of the irs or the fbi to go after political opponents our president has done none of that but yet you would think he is a dictator. know how many times they compare him to a nazi or hitler when those words come up to describe the president , you have to be unhinged. speaking of that remember that. they brought in the professor from yale and she and 26 others wrote a book about how the president of united states? they never met him he was mentally unhinged they did the same thing on goldwater in the sixties. i give all the history. this is not news. may push them out there. it is a fake event and then a week worth of news. sean: this is important because over two years they have peddled lies in conspiracy theories when they rigged the primary where the evidence is overwhelming. then trieded to use the phony russian dossier as a means to spy on the trump campaign and then to rigged that election. and then ironically

peter strzok that was later removed from robert mueller's team presenting the anti-trump texts was theinator for the anybody in the defensive briefing which included multiple agencies. strzok opened the fbi's counter intelligence case into campaign aide george papadopoulos. these briefings are called defensive briefings and supposed to be designed to warn the campaign of imminent national security threats. in this case in 2016, it should have been included the hacking charge and more. >> charles: jim, you know, a lot of people are -- this sort of postmortem, if you will. even though mueller doesn't want to talk about it, he left us a lot of questions on why they didn't begin with the origin. >> the origins part is getting looked at. not but mueller. that was not part of his scope. i don't think it expanded to look back. >> charles: to be sure, his mandate did expand. >> it did. the way the statue works, rod rosenstein was in a position to approve or disapprove of any expansions of the probe. it's safe to say it never turned inward on itself. never got to a point that said let's talk ab

we go next to peter in provincetown, massachusetts. you are on with mary louise roberts. good morning. >> caller: good morning. i want to wish everyone a happy memorial day, and especially a couple people. i'm sitting in a hospital room right now with roger putnam. and roger is very ill with cancer. i just want to also say that two weeks ago my father passed away. and there was a very interesting you know kind of development with his dad, my grandfather was part of the original army staff at the army war college in platsburg, new york back just prior to the deployment of the u.s. troops to europe during world war i. and there was a time when my dad thought he was going to fight in japan. but in fact he was at iowa state university training as an officer when there was just an instance where we suddenly changed our priorities and rather than invade the philippines in great number -- >> peter, do you have a question for our guest? >> caller: yeah. my question is, you know, was there, you know, any lingering sense of, you of, you know, sup which the french tapped into and, p

and legally and practically robert mueller's statement or his findings are confusing to a whole lot of people out there. peter alexander i have to go back to you. >> yeah. >> now there is new controversy surrounding the president and his recent trip to japan. this controversy is not about shinzo abe and it's not about kim jong-un. >> no, steph, you are exactly right. this is what the controversy focuses on, the president remarked onnis acknowledging it was the case although he is disconnected from this. this is the white house wanting the u.s. navy to move the warship, the "uss john s. mccain" out of sight during the president's visit to japan. it also asked navy officials to confirm that that directive, quote, will be satisfied. the president denied any responsibility on twitter overnight. and then he he is contracted it just a few moments ago on the south lawn. take a listen. >> i don't know what happened. i wasn't involved. i would not have done that. i was very angry with john mccain because he killed health care. i was not a big fan of john mccain in any way, shape, or form. i think john mccain had a lot

invoked executive privilege in a bid to prevent democrats accessing robert mueller's full report its alleged election interference peterxander has more >> reporter: tonight the battle is escalating. president trump asserting executive privilege to prevent the blacked out portions of the mueller report and the underlying evidence from being handed over to congress. executive privilege generally allows a president to shield information usually his private deliberations. >> we've talked for a long time about approaching a constitutional crisis. we are now in it republicans are accusing democrats of political grandstanding. >> i think it's about trying to destroy bill barr because democrats are nervous he will get to the bottom of everything. he is going to find out how and why this investigation started in the fist place. this is all about impeaching the president. >> reporter: the white house is arguing barr has been transparent. >> if the mueller report fully kpon rates the president, why doesn't he want congress to see the entire thing >> chairman in additionaler is asking the attorney general of the united states to b

robert mueller. the public should not lose sight of that. >> thank you so much. peter alexander, pete williams thank you. >>> coming up, mitch mcconnell says it's time the move on from the russia investigation. we'll get reaction from 2020 democratic candidate senator kamala harris, next. stay with us. kalama harris, next. stay with us we know sooner or later... every chip will crack. this daughter was home visiting when mom saw a chip in her windshield. >> mom: honey is that a chip? >> tech: they wanted it fixed fast so they brought it to us. >> mom: hi. >> tech: with our in-shop chip repair service, we can fix it the same day... guaranteed. plus with most insurance a safelite chip repair is no cost to you. >> mom: really? drive safely. all right. ♪ acoustic music >> singers: ♪ safelite repair, ♪ safelite replace. has been excellent. they really appreciate the military family and it really shows. with all that usaa offers why go with anybody else? we know their rates are good, we know that they're always going to take care of us. it was an instant savings and i should

we wait to hear what robert mueller says. >> i wondered about that, peter. we heard the judiciary compare managery nadler last week talking about his negotiations with mueller, the democrats as you mentioned do want to see him on capitol hill. he revealed that mueller had said he wanted to do some kind of statement in public, but then answer questions in private. do you think this fact that he's doing a public statement now might have something to do with those negotiations with congress breaking down in some respect? >> reporter: i think it is certainly possible, obviously. robert mueller didn't want this to be a spectacle. remember when james comey testified what a scene that was, you can only imagine what it would be like if robert mueller took questions on capitol hill in this divisive partisan environment we live in right now, as we heard from jerry nadler who of course heads up the house jack dorsauouse judic the bottom line is he said mueller would talk to members of congress but only behind closed doors. that he would make a statement in skrans of it

we should be able to ask those questions how robert mueller treated the handling of evidence by peter strzok and lisa page who obviously manifested their bias against the president is another legitimate question. solve think a lot of you was were disappointed that we won't be hearing more from the special counsel. i guess it's robert mueller's view that his report is like scripture like it has his own -- it can't be questioned by anyone. >> sandra: let me quickly say isn't this ridiculous to have the president of the united states absolutely dismissing and besmirching robert mueller ohio think is widely respected even after he wants to tell us no collusion, no obstruction, look at the mueller report, now he comes back and says oh that mueller he can't be trusted. you can't have it both ways, mr. president. i think it really suggests this is about bullying and trying to distract people from the argument at hand. >> sandra: how do you answer that question? should the judiciary committee subpoena robert mueller? because he said the report to speak for itself and then he gave a speech. >>

so peter salinger, who was working for kennedy, shared fbi files. fbi files. robert kennedy.obert kennedy agreed and agreed to order wiretaps of martin luther king. lyndon johnson wiretapped hubert humphrey, the vice president. here's what i want to get at. this is important. there's been abuses of the irs of the fbi to go after political opponents, to go after newspapers, to go after newspaper men. our president has done none of that. yet you would think he's a dictat dictator. you listen to msnbc and scar borough, i don't know how many times they compare him to a nazi or to hitler or the words come up describing the president of the united states. you have to be unhinged. speaking of that, remember that period they were bringing the professor in from yale and she and 26 others wrote a book about how the president of the united states -- they never met the president of the united states. how he was mentally unhinged. he pulled the same thing on barry goldwater in 1964. >> sean: you write about that in the book. >> i give all of the history. this wasn't news. these people mad

crime by misleading congress about special counsel robert miller's report on alleged russian interference in the twenty sixteen presidential election. peter matthews is a political analyst and professor of political science and cypress college he joins me now from los angeles good to have you with us on the program sir i mean what congress feels and what congress does are two very different things the impression is they feel lied to or misled so one wonders what next. it was remarkable how the attorney general decided just not to show up today and refused to testify and that's something that could lead to contempt of congress but here's what's next is a problem here with mr miller's letter which indicated that mr barr misrepresented the actual report of the investigative report and mr mollett had actually prepared summaries earlier back in march and asked mr barr to use the summaries to go and presented to congress and the public and barr didn't do that instead he comes up with a four page summary letter which was very misleading and set the tone for the public to misunderstand what happened with the investigation and deal problem right n

at the white house we have peter alexander, kasie hunt, matt miller and jeremy bash. pete, first to you. you've known robert mueller for a long time. you've covered him for a very long time. this was very dramatic. his statement appeared halting. you can understand the pressure he's under. your first impressions, your headlines? >> reporter: well, i think you've hit the high points. number one, he made it clear he doesn't want to testify before congress. he said there's no point of it. he's not going to go beyond what's in his testimony. i hope this is my late statement about it. quite clear he's laying a marker down. he doesn't want to testify before congress. the report speaks for itself. this was an important inflection point in the career of this special counsel investigation. it's now completely over. the report, largely ended it. he had some finishing up to do. now he's no longer or shortly will no longer be the special counsel. he goes back to private life. the second point i thought was interesting today is, and you touched on it as well. it seemed pretty clear now that in terms of the process, the

i'm going to ask robert mueller why, when he fired peter strzok, he never inquired as to the specifice policy, about saying to his lover, lisa page, no, we'll stop him. what did those things mean? i'm sure curious. i think the american people are curious. robert mueller never even asked. he never even wondered what evidence might have been poluted by peter strzok or lisa page. remember, pea tore strzo peter e person who initially opened up on george po papadopoulos. dagen: i want to note this, in the wall street journal editorial, about what went on in the senate hearing yesterday. bill barr made nearly all of the redactions in the mueller report available to senior members of congress to inspect, yet as of this writing only three members have bothered. lindsey graham, mitch mcconnell and doug collins. not one democrat howling about mr. barr's lack of transparency has examined the outrages they claim are his. james freeman. >> i think that does raise a question, congressman. is it sort of common knowledge that those redactions are not going to provide any additional ammunition a an an

robert lighthizer opposed mexican tariffs. to what extent is the president's team on the same page as him? peter: it is hard to say.hat lighthizer and others were not for the music and tariffs. usmca looked like it was going to get done. lighthizer and others were not for the mexican tariffs. to try to ensure the u.s. does not use this sort of exceptional economic power. and beyond that, if you are lighthizer, you have to worry that this really deteriorates your negotiating power. the rest of the world can look at this action with mexico and all the wayyou went to establish a 25-year free trade agreement with the u.s., they may still use this type of policy to get out of other agreements, and act in an ordinary way, against a trading partner. that has to be concerning and will make negotiating harder in the short run. concerning for ustr and other entities in government. it is not clear to me they are on the same page. certainly not the timing of usmca trying to complete its path through congress and the mexican tariffs being announced yesterday indicate there is a lot of same page activity. it also means there's a

reporting tonight is that as of today, as of tonight, robert mueller is still an employee of the department of justice, which is an interesting thing. peter karr, the spokesman for the special counsel told us tonight, we called him after this -- or we contacted him after this reporting broke tonight. we called him to find out whether or not mueller is still a doj employee. he told us tonight that mueller remains a justice department employee for now, but that mueller, quote, will be concluding his service within the coming days. that's something that they told us right around the time that the report came out. they said that advice is still operative, but to the extent it matters who's actually robert mueller's employer at this point, if this confrontation is getting this heated and this direct, he still belongs to doj. stay with us. or child. or other child. or their new friend. or your giant nephews and their giant dad. or a horse. or a horse's brother, for that matter. the room for eight, 9,000 lb towing ford expedition. each day justin at work... walk. and after work. he does it all with dr. scholl's. only dr. scholl's has massaging g

robert mueller his first public comments on television have given democrats new reason to talk about impeachment. we have overnight reaction to the remarks and a tweet just in from the president this morning. petere acknowledged that russia helped him get elected but then later walked it back. and he sfeefiercely criticized possibility of impeachment. >> it is a disgood samaritisgus. there was no high crime, no misdemeanor. so how do you impeach? >> reporter: i lashed out at robert mueller calling him a true never trumper. and arguing that his greatest achievement is exposing corruption. it comes after mueller's remarks largely summarizing his report and explaining that he and his team of investigators from the very beginning agreed to follow long standing justice department policy. a policy that prohibits indicting a sitting president suggesting only congress can formally accuse the president of wrongdoing. now pressure is intensifying on nancy pelosi to begin impeachment proceedings as the drumbeat of democrats is growing. she has so far resisted the calls saying she wants an ironclad case before moving forward. >> you don't bring an impeachment unless you have all of the facts, the strongest

robert mueller himself has already confronted him over his portrayal of the investigation. we have complete coverage this morning with peter alexander. >> reporter: good morning. this is happening right now. the attorney general william barr, moments a ago arriving there. you see him there, senate democrats will be grilling open over explosive news that robert mueller sent him until what was an undisclosed letter. some are calling for barr to resign accusing him of misleading the public. >> new details about how the tight slipped robert mueller was fuming. new report that he wrote a letter objecting to the initial description of the conclusions complaining that barr's account caused public confusion. >> this letter is unquestionably a stunning rebuke of the attorney general of the united states undermining, devastating his credibility. >> it is an outright manipulation of the report and statements by special council mueller. >> three days after barr released his summary of the findings, the special council in a letter reviewed by the "washington post" said barr's description did not fully capture the nature and substance o

your interpretation of what robert mueller said yesterday may depend on your opinion of president trump. as "the new york times" peterton spoke yesterday. here is what president trump heard, case closed. here's what the president's adversaries heard. time to impeach. and here's what garrett graff heard. mueller is in his own mueller-like way screaming for presidential impeachment proceedings. all right, so what did mueller mean? joining us is someone else who knows robert mueller pretty well. he was the executive assistant director of the fbi while mueller was the bureau's director, worked in the home office there with him. mr. anderson, good to see you, sir. >> good to see you, chuck. >> all right. everybody is trying to read between the lines of what mueller meant, what he said. you saw what garrett graff thought mueller was doing. many of us assumed that if he's amplifying a footnote that, yes, he seems to be sending a message. but you know this man better than all of us. what did you hear? >> so good points. one thing i will tell you, and i worked for three directors. bob mueller i think does it as well as anybod

most republicans say publicly at least that robert mueller's statements should go as the final word. it's time to put the two-year investigation to bed. peter doocy reporting live from washington. peter? >> shep, mueller said he doesn't plan to testify on capitol hill. but the democratic leader of the house says he really should. steny hoyer has a new statement that reads "given that the president has not been cleared of wrong doing and the seriousness of russia's interference in our democracy, i believe that the american people deserve to hear testimony from the special counsel about his report and those report's conclusions. neither hoyer or speaker pelosi are calling for impeachment yesterday. many others are, including kamala harris who has said that what robert mueller basically did is return an impeachment referral. now it's up to congress to hold this president accountable. we need the start impeachment proceedings. it's our constitutional obligation. harris is not the only 2020 contender. corey book, elizabeth warren and beto o'rourke as well. bernie sanders and joe biden have not said yet. >> shepard: what about the republicans? >>

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 sense that they would put together some sort of a draft indictment involving president trump. it is often, by the way, that prosecutors will maybe come up with a draft indictment for other individuals they may seek to charge. but in this case, the special counsel's office says that's not true. >> tom, you're outside the federal court today because you're watching two criminal arraignments from michael avenatti. what do you think is going to happen here? >> michael avenatti is very clear about what is going to happen. one arraignment around noon from charges stemming around $300,000 in the theft of st

that's why i think robert mueller wrote that letter disagreeing and complaining about the way that william barr was characterizing his conclusion. >> peter baker, and kasie hunt, peter, i'll start with you. the bottom line here is that bill barr is essentially admitting the president has tried to at least ask him questions about various other pieces of investigations that are still happening, maybe with sdny, maybe with the unknown investigations that we know were spun off of the special counsel. has the justice department -- this feels like one of those where barr is going to know he's got to do some cleanup tomorrow on this one. or is this opening the door for i think more investigations into presidential interference at justice? >> yeah, it's a great question. look, how do we know the president of the united states has suggested that the attorney general investigate his political opponents? because he's told us so. he's told us so again and again and again. >> he tweets it. >> every day, every week, whatever. if you go back the couple of months that bill barr has been attorney general and count the number of times he's said it at a pu
