has pleaded guilty to two criminal counts as part of a deal to cooperate with special counsel robert muller miller is investigating possible collusion between trump's presidential campaign and russia metaphor has pleaded guilty to one charge of conspiracy against the united states and he wanted conspiracy to obstruct justice last month he was convicted in a bridge in your court on bank and tax fraud charges he was due to go on trial a second time on related charges but today's deal means that most of those charges have been dropped or let's take this now to washington d.c. our correspondent is on the story for us going to you mike is that we got man a for pleading guilty in the hearing and will now cooperate with the justice department this is quite a turnaround from the way he approached his previous trial isn't it it's a total turnaround claiming his innocence all these months while they were investigating one court has already found him guilty on a council tax fraud bank fraud and also lying to the government this is a big deal and a big blow to the trumpet ministration because he is now

well there is still a lot of answered questions here we haven't seen robert muller's final case what case is he going to make and until we see that we've won't know how it will play in the political sphere impeachment is a political process robert muller if he brings a case that leads people to talk about impeachment there are going to have to be republicans in congress who vote to remove the president of the united states we're not we're definitely not there yet republicans in congress have been overwhelmingly supportive of the president there is another question about whether muller could indict the president of the united states but the legal thinking on that seems to say no he may try but if that happens it's going to be a legal fight do you think any of this is really affecting the american electorate you know you just talked about the amount of support which donald trump has had from republicans in congress he's got plenty of support out in the united states as well and i'm wondering if any of this is really making a dent in that well the immediate danger for donald trump is th

it could very deeply affect it for now we know that robert muller will continue doing what he's been working on. if it ends up that rosenstein does resign because there are a lot of reports saying that he even offered to resign last week when this new york times story broke and it was a big embarrassment to both him and to the trump administration if it turns out that he does resign and there is a certain process within the justice department for who would then step up to the next role and the next guy is possibly somebody who is a lot more sympathetic to trump as a lot less sympathetic to robert muller now we should mention that the reason why jeff sessions the attorney general is not the person who's overseeing all of this it would normally be the person overseeing all this is that he recused himself way back at the beginning of the trumpet ministration because he had some unreported conversations with the russian ambassador during the twenty sixteen campaign and he saw fit to step back from what was going on and thus rod rosenstein came to the fore as the person who was essentiall

well we don't know that though the only person who will tell us that is robert muller and he's not leaking he's not talking and what he's done since he's been appointed is get conviction after conviction all of these people flipping up and down the food chain metaphor though is on top of that food chain so yes the white house tries to say things as if it has nothing to do with the campaign we don't know that. they've shown no collusion we don't know that we don't know what robert mueller has i think it's a little bit strange doesn't usually hold off on tweeting i haven't seen anything from him yet now when metaphor was convicted in virginia he was quick to say he's brave he's unlike my personal attorney michael cohen he's not going to make things up to get a better deal for himself he's a good man probably enough feeling that way now but we'll wait and see how long he can stay off twitter ok thank you patty we'll talk to you again later on hopefully with some more developments perhaps a tweet or two we will see. who let's move on three palestinians have been killed on friday by israeli gun

space to other news in a flurry of questions about the future of the man who appointed robert muller as a special prosecutor there are reports in the u.s. in just the past couple of hours that deputy attorney general rod rosenstein could be about to lose his job remember he's the one overseeing the investigation into alleged russian interference in the twenty eight sixteen election last week in new york times reporter he also been looking at ways to secretly record president trump and even how he might be removed rosenstein tonight that reports off to the white house we go to his kimberly halkett i white house correspondent any more clarity at this stage kimberly. yeah we've been chasing the story here at the white house now we've been able to nail down exactly what is taking place a statement from the white house press secretary sara sanders offering some clarity on the rumors that have been swirling awash in the last couple of hours that the deputy attorney general rod rosenstein potentially being fired or is resigning now we are told from sara sanders that both the deputy attorney

stories the president sending signals which in itself could factor back into the special counsel robert muller is investigation so it's all very complicated exactly why he's doing this again no more and. their own juice speculating you've been very good to you know walking us through this very delicately and kathleen patty but is it fair to say at this point that any deal any plea deal with is not good news for don't trump's legal team. not necessarily because if he's basically to say i'll save you all the work of going through a trial and. actually you know for the prosecutor it's not necessarily a slam dunk we saw in the last trial there was one holdout that wouldn't convict on ten counts so basically you can get a slightly reduced sentence just say hey i'll save you yes certainly i'll save you the effort it doesn't necessarily mean that he's cooperating if he is cooperating that would be potentially very damaging to the trump campaign remember he ran it and a lot of people are like oh well it was only six months less than six months but this is paul metaphor he got him through the republica

than being fired it is very possible that trump could install someone who is less sympathetic to robert muller and could potentially dismantle this investigation is that once the trump white house is wanting to happen they want resisting to quit instead of the president firing him because if the president were to fire him there would have broader implications before the troll presidency what mitt. it certainly paints a murkier picture if he is fired rather than if he resigns we do know that. the dismissal of various justice department officials including rosenstein was discussed throughout the summer and even last year this is something that trump has been harping on a lot basically because he doesn't like the fact that this russian vest a geisha is continuing and rosenstein is standing between him and muller he has repeatedly discussed trying to dismiss various people including both rosenstein and mohler and there is a lot of concern over whether or not he would install a simple crony to head us of be the next deputy attorney general if rosenstein were to somehow leave his job one way or anot

nominate the next person and the thing you have to understand about rosenstein is he is the boss of robert muller the man who is overseeing the investigation into this allegedly meddling in the u.s. election by the russian government and rosenstein has really been acting as a human shield between the mole investigation and the trump administration because we know that the trouble ministration is no fan of what's going on in the justice department right now and if rosenstein resigns rather than being fired it is very possible that trump could install someone who is less sympathetic to robert mohler and could potentially dismantle this investigation is then once the drug is wanting to happen do they want reasons dean to quit instead of the president far in him because if president were to fire him there would have broader implications for the troll presidency wouldn't it certainly paints a murky or picture if he is fired rather than if he resigns we do know that. the dismissal of various justice department officials including rosenstein was discussed throughout the summer and even last year this is

attorney general where you have to remember about rosenstein is right now he is basically the boss of robert muller the man who is leading this investigation into the alleged meddling by russia into the twenty sixteen the last elections and rosenstein has really been acting as a human shield between the trump administration which doesn't like the fact that the investigation is going on and the investigation of self so if he's gone and the manner in which he has gone all those things matter ok well obviously the question is if saddam does vacate his post what would this mean for the lower probe. but we are all very well aware that the trump administration is not a fan of this investigation and if trump does get the opportunity to nominate the next person who is going to be deputy attorney general that person would have the opportunity to possibly shut the investigation down throw up roadblocks to make proper miller's life harder report to the white house on what muller is working on and possibly prepare the white house for what might be coming in terms of indictments subpoenas coming out so. to thin

big blow to the trumpet ministration because he is now willing to cooperate with special counsel robert muller who is investigating whether there was collusion between the trump campaign and the russian government now he is going to be willing to talk something that he has not done in the past and was quoted for as being respected by the president in tweets for not being broken by the government that is now over. japan is threatening to withdraw from the international whaling commission after it folds it down the country's bid to lift a ban on commercial whaling japan had argued that since the ban was introduced in the one nine hundred eighty s. stocks have recovered sufficiently for it to be leftist. whaling countries led by australia the e.u. and the us to face it japan's proposal is likely japan will continue to hunt whales by making use of a loophole that allows so-called scientific way. whales of the world's biggest sea members and their existence is threatened as ocean pollution increases but they're also highly coveted for whale hunting by japan these japanese ships official mission is

than a week ago the former campaign manager paul nana ford made him plead the dream and there's robert muller are you concerned. i'm not concerned i want the truth to come out i i hope that he is truthful with the special counsel but here's kind of the interesting thing in terms of legally that it's taken away whatever leverage that anybody might have thought a pardon could apply because basically if he's cooperate with robert with mr mueller then a pardon doesn't really matter if you pardon him for his tax evasion or what are these other charges he's already he's already talking. jose do you think this is going to break anything big. it could i mean it's hard to tell there is so much things going on as to pertains to this investigations and i agree with amy i mean what we want us republicans democrats that we want to get to the bottom of this i want this whole investigation to to be over but it takes time so i i think robert mueller is doing an outstanding job i think he should continue to do it as a fast as we can. i think a lot of folks a lot of you know a lot of folks in washington were h

crucially these sources tell us that cohen is willing to make that assertion to the special counsel robert muller so this in station was that the president's former lawyer would tell investigators mr trauma had known about the infamous tower sit down featuring his son and the russians sure that counts as a sensation as many would take it as proof there had been collusion well a few weeks later a man called lanny davis michael cohen's own attorney comes out and says he was the source for c n n a b he's made a mistake and c. is in. side into this complicated matter has been misinterpreted mr davis eventually even appeared on c.n.n. several times to reiterate just that the reporting of this story got mixed up so michael cohen does not have information that president trump knew about the from terror meeting with the russians beforehand or you know. is it your understanding now that the senate has been told no michael cohen stands by his testimony he did not know of the trump tower meeting beforehand that's correct and the reporting was a bit garbled but c.n.n. did nothing to warn its audience the sto

special account special counsel in the united states robert muller this is absolute earth shattering news when it comes to the moeller investigation let's go back and think about who paul metaphor is he is a lobbyist who had deep ties to the pro russian ukrainian government that's where all of these charges stem from he was also president trump's campaign chairman during a critical time in his campaign we know that he was at that meeting that was asked for and set up with people close to the kremlin promising dirt hillary clinton the president's son son in law paul man a fourth they were in this meeting to now paul man ford's going to tell prosecutors basically everything he knows he's agreed to forfeit four of his multimillion dollar homes lots of his bank accounts in exchange he's going to hope for less prison time exactly what this deal is entails we don't know he's in court right now that agreement should be pro put on the record as soon as the proceedings are over but again this is absolutely huge news paul metaphor who really had ties to progress in government ties to the charm

that's going with his presidency is you've got some of these high level people now cooperating with robert muller who's the best gating collusion with the russians and also obstruction of justice and that's kind of very problematic for the president because some of those people are even is all yours just as john trunk was nixon's john bemis nixon. yeah i mean that's it is an interesting point you made could be were i don't want to go with too much detail here with this but do you think that the president's former personal attorney michael cohen and his lawyer lanny davis do you think they will prove key to finding the truth about the trump presidency and you know i think it will be very important in terms of crimes like. you know people before an election keep them quiet to affect an election. one is already pled guilty to that and set the truck was involved in order that yet that's all proven criminal activity whether or not colin knows about the russian collusion is a different story and as you know any davis has said one thing and have walked it back a little bit so that's less. going to be ve

shut this investigation down and rosenstein has really been quite a liberal with the with what robert muller the man who's leading this investigation can do. so rosenstein being removed would certainly allow some to shut down this investigation that he so hates the other hand this would put the white house into further turmoil it would enraged the left further and this is all happening near weeks before these midterm elections that are very much suggesting the republicans stand to lose a lot in these election there's the been this predicted blue wave coming and the white house really wants to project this symbol this picture of strength right now and removing rosenstein would not help with that you know what happens if the reasons dean is no longer deputy attorney general i mean he has been privy to many conversations that involve the president over there have been about the president could he begin cooperating with special counsel robert. that is certainly a big question mark in washington right now it is curious that trump hasn't done more up until now what does the matter we should say is
