later republican congressman ryan costello joins me live.ys his colleagues' conclusions on the russia investigation should be taken with a grain of salt. >>> but just hours from now, president trump and president putin are set to meet. things were always going to be a little awkward to begin with. and then came the indictments of a dozen russians laid out in forensic detail. it leaves a lot of questions, like whether holding those accountable will come up in their conversation. >> the russians who were indicted, would you ask putin to send them here? >> well, i might. i hadn't thought of that, but certainly i'll be asking about it. again, this was during the obama administration. >> presented with all of this new information, there is also the question of how hard the president will press vladimir putin on his government's role. >> i know you'll ask will we be talking about meddling, and i will absolutely bring that up. i don't think you'll have any, gee, i did it, i did it, you got me. there won't be a perry mason here, i don't think, but y

joining me now is congressman ryan costello. he's a republican from the great state of pennsylvania. congressman, thank you very much for joining us. so our viewers know, we reached out to dozens of republican lawmakers today to speak, to react to the president's comments. i want to thank you for being the only one who said yes. so if i could ask you first, what is your reaction to president trump's comments alongside the russian president yesterday? >> well, i was embarrassed. i think that i was outraged because i think that in all my years of having a tremendous respect for the institution of the presidency and its role around our globe, i'd never seen a more pathetic and weak display of american leadership as a president. and it's not explainable. it's not defensible. and it's something we should view, i think, with outrage and ask serious questions as to why our president would somehow cast doubt or create some equivalency between vladimir putin's denial and the very substantive investigative powers of our law enforcement an

my conversation with ryan costello. >>> welcome to the program, i am christiane amanpour in london.>> nelson and ella provides us with release -- relief to reflect on a great leader. he embodied the end i -- i days we can aspire to. forgiveness, dignity, passion, truth, reconciliation and so much more. even in the face of unbearable sacrifice and humiliation. even at his lowest separated from his family, languishing in prison for nearly 28 years, he always insisted that hope is the most powerful weapon. in the spirit of that hope, we take this opportunity to reflect and maybe group as the democracy come under threat in the political and social discourse is infected with so much poison. when south africa's white minority government set mandela free , he for gave and united nation. speaking the day of his release in 1990, he spoke the same words upon being sentenced in 1964. laying down his vision for blacks and whites living in a democratic and free society. >> i hope to live for and to achieve. but if need be, it is for which i am prepared to die. >> in his first major speech since le

a few candidates, like republican congressman ryan costello saying, nope. this was not me. is there any educated guesses, or speculation, rather, on who it might be and how significant this part of the indictment is? >> reporter: as of right now, it suggests speculation and just rumor. we've seen names tossed out. one thing many people will pay attention to is which candidates will not come forward and say it's not me. only a matter of time before that information is made clear, but the ramifications of this congressional candidate getting this information will be quite significant if this candidate is someone who actually ended up winning and is in congress. there is no information so far that suggests that's the case. >> yeah. and despite all of this and democrats calling for the president to call off this meeting with president putin on monday, the finnish government says not only is it on but a bilateral news conference after the fact on monday. was this expected overall? do you think, gabby, this was going to happen come hell or high water? >> reporter: yeah. i think p

let's get analysis from republican congressman ryan costello. thank you so much for joining us. there's a lot of concern about the tariffs that the president has imposed. the speaker, paul ryan, says he hates, he opposes the tariffs as they are simply a tax on the american people. the price of all sorts of products is going to go up here in the united states. the president now says an agricultural product, he's willing to come up with a $12 billion bailout to farmers. what is your reaction to this latest dispute? >> well, similar to the speaker and many other republicans on the hill, this is a self-inflicted wound. this is going to be very damaging to our farmers, to the agricultural sector. you know, using a credit facility created during the great depression to create a subsidy for farmers while we hopefully cross our fingers and bring about reducing barriers is something that gives me great pause, because we do not know what the strategy is or what the end result may be, but we do know that in the meantime over the past several weeks, the cos

first up, congressman ryan costello of pennsylvania. take a listen. >> i'm going to be the first person to tell you i have little kids and i don't want them to ask me what does stormy daniels do for a living. >> hmm, tough on president trump, tough on stormy daniels. so what do you think, running or retiring? retiring, got it. okay. next up, here's congressman jeb henter ling of texas. in fact he called the money a bailout. >> and every single bailout ultimately is going to be borne by our children and our grandchildren. again, the answer is trade, not aid. so yes, this is a bailout. i'm opposed to it. >> so, conservative texas republican. running or retiring? you guessed it, retiring. moving on we have congressman charlie dent on whether president trump paid hush money to stormy daniels. >> i think there's certainly a role for congress. if a democratic president had done this, we'd be waving a bloody shirt right now. >> how about denlt, running or retiring? actually resigning early in order to get out of here. beginning to sense a patt

but ryan costello on pennsylvania 6 was just on the air. i want to play for you what he had to say. >> we don't know what was said by our own president in a two-hour meeting. but we know what that following press conference was, and the fact that nothing was said for 24 hours. it's deeply damaged. we shouldn't sugarcoat that. and we couldn't accept that a double negative that a should instead of a shouldn't or a shouldn't instead of a should is going to make this go away because that's not the case. >> can we go back to what happened to this meeting even though there are calls for interpreter whose job it is to parse national security issues sand things that may or may not be classified. the russian military said they were ready to implement international security agreements. we don't even know what that is. i mean, do we have any idea? >> we have no idea, chris. and that's a really important point. president trump sat down with putin for two full hours with only their interpreters. there were no note takers. there was no secretary of state

woman at the fbi, grilling him for basically show for the president, according to congressman ryan costello's what he told kasie hunt on her show on sunday, that this was all a show for the president to help the president undermine the mueller investigation. cal perry, i'm going to say thank you to you but i'm going to leave our viewers with this one last thing before i give it over to ali velshi. the director of national intelligence, dan coats, has pushed back very forcefully against the president today in what he said this morning in helsinki. i know we covered it a moment ago but let me read it one more time because i think it is important. the role of the intelligence community is to provide the best information and fact-based assessments possible for the president and policy makers. we have been clear in our assessments of russian meddling in the 2016 election and their ongoing pervasive efforts to undermine our democracy and we will continue to provide unvarnished and objective intelligence in support of our national security. that is a republican member of donald trump's administrat

well, for reaction i spoke a short time ago with republican congressman ryan costello from pennsylvaniacapitol hill. president trump has said he misspoke in that press conference with blood putin about his assessment of russian meddling in the us election. are you satisfied? no, because the mistake was already made. the presentation at the press conference was more than whether he said should 01’ was more than whether he said should or should not. there was a lot of attendant explanation and description over his meeting with vladimir putin at, and his disgust for contempt over the investigation that i think still sends signals to the international community that what russia may or may not have done is something that the president questions. i think that's a terrible message to send to our allies who look to us to reinforce the provisions of nato and more broadly the baltic states and those in europe. there are implications that president's words are having an impact on public opinion here in the us. only 32% of republican voters actually believe the intelligence assessment that russians

we've seen congressman ryan costello, who is incidentally retiring at the ending of his term, come out on twitter pushing back on the speculation that it could have been him. saying that he not only did not request this information but when it came to light that he was not going to use it. we've also been reaching out to members of congress on the republican side from florida where some of this information turned up after a local blogger got ahold of it. spokes people for brian mast and ron de santis have said it's not them. we will continue to work through this, ali, based in large part on where we know this information popped up, particularly after, as the indictment points out, this request came in in august. >> is there -- since you said the universe of people to whom this could have referred is broad. first of all, to ari's point earlier, we're going to find out at some point if this is information robert mueller has. there may be another indictment or some other reference to it. more importantly, the people whose e-mails were hacked, did some of them lose? did many of them lose?

ryan came out and did not use the president's name. they said a lot about putin and nothing about donald trump and saw congressman hurd, congressman costello naming donald trump. i think it's in this instance important to name names and for republicans not naming names says they're scared. the president ran away with the democracy. what will folks do about it? >> talk about republicans on capitol hill trying to make the decision right now. they're all with the exception of rand paul possibly appalled. they can't believe what they heard yesterday. they can't believe the president continues to say these things. when's the decision when a mitch mcconnell or paul ryan doesn't name the president an instead reaffirms what they believe which completely contradicts the president? >> not only reaffirm what they believe and laid out penalties for future election interference. mcconnell clear about the views of russia did meddle an they shouldn't do it again and will be consequences for that. i keep hearing what are the republicans going to do? i follow a great military national security adviser on twitter john noonan saying they have done many thing
