that set up a real problem for sara sanders, also for kellyanne conway who was asked about this earlier this morning right here on the north lawn. >> kellyanne, when did you first learn that the president had reimbursed michael cohen for that payment made to stormy daniels? >> i have no comment on that. >> did you know about it before sara? >> i have never heard about that during the campaign. i was the campaign manager a lot crossed my desk and that was not one thing. >> does the president intend to -- >> the president sent out three tweets on the matter. >> is the president being honest? >> very honest. >> reporter: so we've seen that difficult, awkward moment for both kellyanne conway counselor to the president, former campaign manager and sara sanders who have a role of imparting information to the public and they both say they didn't know until the interview that giuliani did where he brought this out into the public domain. again, the legal strategy, they claim, is one of getting ahead of it being broken by a news organization or being leaked by someone involved in the investigati

the press versus sara sanders. don't want to miss it. >>the press versus sara sands sandse sandsers. that's the focus of tonight's angle. yesterday the white house press briefing turned into a total frenzy. the white house press corps is up in arms over the discrepancy of what she told the press previously and what giuliani revealed this week. >> why can't you just answer yes or no whether you were in the dark? i think it's a fairly simple question. >> i think it's a fairly simple answer. i gave you the best answer i had and i'll continue to do that every single day. >> have we ever gotten any truth out of them? have they become to the point that they've become null and void? >> but she's lying to the american public and i think she needs to own that. being ignorant and lying about it is just not an excuse. >> is no comment a better option? >> if you're just going to lie, why bother? >> this is how democracy die slowly right in front of us. every single day, deception and lies become normal. >> how dramatic, mike. "this is how democracy

>> i'm offended by what sara sanders wrote.the one hand, what we conservatives is critical of liberals doing a lot is saying if you're a woman, you must support liberal or you must support xyz. we try not to do that and that's exactly what she was doing. but it's also just flawed. there is nothing hypocritical with caring about women's empowerment, caring about national security and asking tough questions of a woman who would take on a very high position. in fact, at worst it's maybe partisan, at best it's actually quite principled. then the idea that you must -- to support women's empowerment, you have to support every woman and every policy position she has is just absurd. i agree that gina haspel is the most qualified person for this position. i wish sara sanders hadn't brought up the fact that she's a woman to prove it. >> yeah, i think it's incredibly condescending, wolf. she stands or falls on her merits. she's very, very qualified but some democrats and republicans, notably john mccain, are worried she wouldn't say tortu

but sara sanders didn't deny that schiller and others were responsible. was -- he was the president's personal bodyguard and then became a special assistant to the president. it doesn't sound like standard operating procedure. >> it is not standard operating procedure so send a long time bodyguard who you gave a job at the white house to go to his office and barged in and took the documents and making them take a -- a photo of him and the president off the wall. this is a colorful figure and so that draws into question what his claims r. but it isn't standard procedure, you request the documents but clearly they took a very different route. but desiree's questions about -- that is the roll that keith schiller had and he delivered the letter to the fbi that fired james comey. so he had a certain peculiar role in the west wing to say the least but it is not standard operating procedure. >> i don't know what you call it, but he carried out some of the more uncomfortable deeds that the president trump needed accomplished. kevin, obviously the medical records

and north korea will still go ahead as planned white house press secretary sara sanders acknowledged that president trump is prepared for what she called tough negotiations all this after north korea cast doubt on the meeting saying it would not take part in the talks if it is going to be quote a one sided affair where it is pressured to give up its nukes. history being written only a few weeks ago at the summit of the north and south korean leaders where pyongyang said it was prepared to denuclearize but now north korea has put the brakes on. and a possible sign of growing problems the north perspire a summit show jeweled with south korea. the reason. these the annual us south korea joint military exercises just taking place the u.s. and south korea was surprised and disappointed. that it's regrettable that north korea has decided to unilaterally perspire on the upcoming high level talks i look this is something that we fully expected the president is very used and ready for tough negotiations and if they want to me will be ready and if they don't that's ok to. continue with a campa

uno de sus objetivos favoritos fue la secretaria de prensa, sara sanders.ue una vergüenza para todos los que tuvieron que ver con ella". para este periodista, a la comediante se le fue la mano. chísimas gracias. orador: y con esto, jóvenes, estamos muy contentos por sus logros, y confiamos en que pondrán el nombre de la institución-- dominica: qué orgullosa me siento de mi ahijada elvirita, comadre. rossi: y yo más. mi hija me salió bien buena para el estudio.

. >> julia, you heard sara sanders saying she's not sure the president good go there this weekend. >> i think the president saw the north koreans were playing some games with the rhetoric and the north koreans got angry withlty of the receipt are rick from the administration last week in terms of the libya model and what would happen if they did not agree to denuclearzation terms. so i think the president is very much trying to take a page out of his own playbook at this point. i think administration officials will go along with it. >> rudy giuliani told the associated press last night the white house hopes to get a read out of information from that controversial doj meeting with congressional leaders next week, particularly about the use of a long time government informant. kevin, are you getting a sense of whether this spygate rhetoric has been ramping up for them? are they working? >> there is no question it's worked among republicans. republicans are in lack step with one another. democrats very much clearly disagree with this. they think this is something that really needed to be

sa sara ra -- sarah sanders quoted you yesterday. we know where you stand. people say the cia is hiding behind the classification process and they've selectively declassified the record to show the good parts and not the bad. >> these are always tough calls for the cia, particularly with someone like gina who spent her life in the clandestine service. if you reveal precisely where he was and what she said and who she was dealing with, you would expose operations and sources who would be in trouble. >> did the specific the complaint -- >> and the fact that she spent her life in the clandestine service makes this more difficult. >> it does make a difference. what do you say to the criticism that they're hiding behind that, that everything is going to be behind a dark door of classified information? >> i think the senators are hiding a little bit too. they have access to everything that they want to know about her privately and in classified settings, so they have the material they need to make a decision. i think what they're asking for is help us explain to t

sara sanders today said the american people have a right to know and get answers about the fact that a russian oligarch, a putin crony who has a controlling firm in a subsidiary with a $500,000 cash payment to michael cohen, the trump fixer and sara sanders say the white house briefing room not the appropriate venue for questions about that. you're the one that brought that payment to light and it has been confirmed by several media out lights, what is your response. >> if that is the not forum, what is the forum. but there needs to be a forum where they explain the series of payments and a series of payments between january and approximately august of 2017 totaling approximately half a million dollars and it is not just those payments. there is a whole host of other payments made by multi-national corporations. we have yet to really get straight answers as to why they hired michael cohen and what they hired him for and whether the president knew about it or received any money and what michael cohen did with the money and the list of questions goes on and on. >> and is there somethin

heights and even as the the sirens began going off in golan heights white house press secretary sara sanders said that the escalation of violence is justification of the u.s. withdrawing from the nuclear deal this just thorough there are shows that the iranian regime cannot be trusted israel absolutely howards a sovereign right to defend itself and we support them in whatever efforts they have in order to defend themselves but again i think this activity in this action is just further demonstration that the iranian regime cannot be trusted in another good reminder that the president made the right decision to get out of the iran deal the u.s. state department and the pentagon also issued statements echoing that sentiment that the u.s. stands with israel but the concern here is that if the violence further escalates the risk is that the u.s. military may be drawn into the fold lazy is going prime minister najib razak has just given a press conference saying his policy will accept the will of the people losing the general election for the first time since independence and opposition alliance i

. >> a visibly emotional sara sanders in the briefing room. >>> next tonight, there are major developments involving the president's former attorney and friend, michael cohen. attorneys giving him a deadline in the case, and here's abc's kyra phillips. >> reporter: the clock now officially ticking in the fight over millions of documents seized in those raids of president trump's personal attorney, michael cohen. high stakes on both sides. the judge today giving cohen until june 15th to get through 3.7 million documents seized in those raids to make their case for attorney/client privilege. but cohen's attorney saying they still need to get through two-thirds of that material. today, pleading for more time. "we have people sleeping on couches. we are working around the clock." the government also under pressure to build their case. prosecutors today revealing for the first time that among items seized in those raids, cohen's shredder. normally, when we shred documents, we think they're gone. >> but they're not. if they're in strips, you can put them back together and potentially find new cr

israel's assertion that the iran nuclear deal was reached under false pretenses press secretary sara sanders has iran lied to six world powers and procure the agreement in two thousand and fifteen accusations tehran firmly refutes probably how can i ask more on what was said there are further indications that u.s. president donald trump intends to withdraw from the iran nuclear agreement this time at a white house press briefing with press secretary sarah sanders she admits that the white house did coordinate in advance of a press conference held by the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu and will critics argue there was nothing new in terms of information about iran's nuclear program in that and in that press conference the white house press secretary says it is further proof that iran was not truthful about the extent of its program in advance of signing the iran agreement the deal was made on a completely false pretense iran lied on the front end they were dishonest actors and so the deal that was made was made on things that weren't accurate and we have a big problem with that give

white house press secretary sara sanders said that if the talks don't come through and the u.s. will continue its campaign of maximum pressure economic sanctions, diplomatic isolation and continued leaning on china to cut north korea off. >> but there han be no indication from the north creanl end that there really are pulling out or whether this is simply a warning shot to -- to set out there their negotiating position? >> yeah, just some gamesmanship help spread. in terms of this trade talk, wind that he is going to be in a meeting. >> well, he is already here talking with members of congress. there blem is that doesn't seem to be in progress in the talks so far. president trump doesn't know what china is asking for. though, the u.s. has made it clear they want to cut the trade deficit goods by something 200 billion over the next two years. the vice premier met with some senior members of congress. today, he gave not much indication of where china was going according to the lawmakers. -- came out ch the of the meetings pess mystic that he thought the u.s. would pose it there.

and in tonight's angle, sara sanders versus and out of control press. want to stick around for the friday folly segment. but first, a federal judge just unloads on the mueller team, suggesting they're lying and only out to get trump. ellis is hearing the case against manafort in the eastern district of virginia. he blasted the

sara sanders did comment on this saying that the president is ready to meet, if it takes place.f not, she said that's okay, too. and the president tweeting a few seconds ago about china saying we've not seen china's demands yet. this is on trade which should be few in the previous u.s. administrations have done so poorly in negotiating. china has seen our demands there's been no folding as the media would love people to believe. the meetings haven't started yet. the u.s. has little to give because it's given so much over the years. china has much to give. >> he walks back zte. >> yeah. it started with the "washington post" thing. cnn and the "washington post" saying false stories nothing happened with zte except as it pertains to the larger trade deal i'm not quite sure what that means. i'm not quite sure what that means. of course, remember zte, his request to the commerce democ t department to intervene to save zte had an impact on the name we know well nxp. i'm not sure how you view that except it seems to be part of the overall trade deal wilbur ross said it's different from

we heard sara sanders mention he was -- pompeo was having lunch with the president and then is heading to meet with this man to talk about the meeting on june 12th. i'm brooke baldwin. we'll go to washington. the lead with jake tapper starts right now. >>> the white house takes the occasion of roseanne's racist rant to discuss the serious problem of racism in america. just kidding. they listed all the entertainers who offended president trump. the lead starts right now. >>> rage, regret and russia. president trump unloading on his attorney general saying he wishes he'd hired someone else over jeff sessions' refusal to stay involved in the russia probe. >>> he's calling it nixon 2.0. really? stormy daniels' attorney claiming there could be recorded conversations between president trump and michael cohen. what might the tapes reveal and how much of it might

dan, what co-you make of sara sanders being more upset about the leaks than the comments. and the white house is still not condemning what kelly sandler said about john mccain, quote, dying anyway. >> i saw sarah sanders last night at a performance by rob lowe. clearly she is not letting this get to her. she's still having fun, but i think it speaks to an indication at the white house that sanders wanted to protect sadler from getting fired. there's been so much turnover in the communications shop at the white house. and if sadler did this every day, then she would clearly get fired, but i think they think one error by her is not enough to get canned. but in most white houses, this would be a firing offense. >> paul, on the controversial rudy giuliani comments, the president, if he personally denied the at&t time warner merger has rudy giuliani initially said was the case, what would be the legal implications of that? >> well, you know, the justice department faced wrong arguments during the trial, the antitrust trial going on, that this was done because the president order

earlier this afternoon over at white house, the president secretary sara sanders avoiding inquires aboutueller and the president to answer and the president took to twitter to call the leak disgraceful. and let's bring in our correspondents and analysts. laura what, stands out in your mind from these 49 questions? >> self inflicted wounds, wolf. all of these questions -- circle around what the president has tweeted, has spoken about, has alluded to, has insulted people of a variety of ways and now it is coming back to haunt him. i find it ironic to call it disgraceful but it is a composition of the things you've said and in the public record and mueller would be inquisitive about the things you said and your motivation and intent and why and it answers all of the why. the one thing you cannot get from any other evidence is what the president's motivation was, what was the state of mind, especially when it comes to obstruction cases. >> susan, do these questions reveal where mueller's investigation is heading? >> they confirm that mueller is interested in russian interference in the elect

more leaks giving us a behind the scenes look as press secretary sara sanders berates her communicationsmes after a white house aide kelly sadler dismissed mccain's lack of support for trump's new cia director pick. saying it doesn't matter, because and this was the aide saying this, he's, quote, dying anyway during a meeting on thursday. and now we are learning sanders privately scolded her team during a staff meeting on friday. not necessarily for the original tasteless comment, but for the fact that someone leaked that info

more leaks giving us a behind the scenes look as press secretary sara sanders berates her communications team. it comes after a white house aide kelly sadler dismissed mccain's lack of support for trump's new cia director pick. saying it doesn't matter, because and this was the aide saying this, he's, quote, dying anyway during a meeting on thursday. and now we are learning sanders privately scolded her team during a staff meeting on friday. not necessarily for the original tasteless comment, but for the fact that someone leaked that information. cnn's boris sanchez joining us live from the white house. what more are you learned? >> reporter: hi. despite the fact that sarah sanders hasn't criticized the public comments made by kelly sadler about mccain. in private, at least, among staffers, he's apparently called them inappropriate. one source indicates the nature of the meeting with the communications staffers had more to do with sanders that the leak was put out. she chided them, taking exception to the idea that leaked the information to hurt kelly sadler in public. we should point ou

to give you a sense of that, press secretary sara sanders on why they believe at this point we shouldnsider this more likely than not. >> we expect it to take place. but we'll see what happens. we are going to be prepared. denuclearization has to be on the table and the focus of the meeting. >> reporter: also an interesting different take on all of this reported by some of our colleagues at nbc news about an intelligence assessment that gives a different view of what the intentions of north korea may be. suggesting that there is a wide belief among intelligence officials that north korea would not be inclined to give up its nuclear weapons, however, the cia report says north korea won't denuclearize but may open a burger joint. it is not unusual for there to be commerce associated with international events. we have been focused on all of the nuclear aspects of this. typically when the president travels around the world he'll often tout business deals that come about when he's in a foreign country and meeting with foreign leaders. a burger joint is one of the things offered as a possib

defend itself a statement that mirrors what we just heard from the white house press secretary sara sanders now yesterday trumps announcement to withdraw from you ran deal had been had been warned by president. ronnie who had said that such a action would be a historic mistake on the part now those words being parsed out to see whether that shows a correlation between the u.s. is draw from the nuclear deal and what we're seeing now with the attacks in golan heights however many are saying it's still too early to point a direct link ronnie also said after the announcement that we were that the u.s. was with was withdrawn from the deal that iran would remain committed to its obligations and what would stay in the deal with the european allies but certainly there has been concern among u.s. top officials that what ronnie says may not be what the military of iran feels which is controlled by hardliners and that what we're seeing today with the attack on israel may indeed be precipitated by the u.s. withdrawal from the rand nuclear deal rob part of a no thanks very much indeed remarks abrams is

they continue to say, look rudy giuliani is doing what we want, and sara sanders said the same thingrd to believe legally and politically that he is at a minimum induced a week of talking about donald trump and -- and what story he's telling about paying stormy daniels as it rielates to michal cohen which is all bad -- >> and has he done anything wrong -- rudy giuliani, sabrina, other than make the president's legal problems more difficult right now. >> no. i think back to when rudy giuliani spoke to fox news about the travel ban and said that president called him up and said he wanted a muslim ban and how do i do that legally and that is the defense of the travel ban in the courts and now a similar process where he's offering up numerous contradictions and what is striking is that he was brought on -- at least it was said in a limited capacity and going to maybe act as a mediator between the special counsel and the president. but if anything, we've seen him take on much more of a public role, perhaps seeing himself as the public face of the president's legal team and he's only invit

sara sanders just told us she plans a special briefing to reporters. president trump who tweeted about north korea 40 times by my count, since becoming president, hasn't mentioned it yet in today's tweets. >>> one more quick thing, a few moments ago the senate judiciary committee released hundreds of pages of transcripts of its interview with donald trump jr. about his meeting with russians at the trump tower. it is hundreds of pages. we're still going through it. then moments ago the senate intel committee approved gina haspel as cia chief. lots to watch on twitter this morning. i'll keep you updated. find me at scott mcgrew. >> a lot of people watching and waiting finally for the royal wedding. the big day is almost here. overnight a big announcement from the palace as well. >> of course the bride and groom officially naming their brides maids and the page boys. we pretty much knew some of this as we expected. princess charlotte will be one of the six brides maids all children and prince george one of the four page boys also all children. meghan mark

sara sanders the press secretary says the iran nuclear deal was negotiated on the false pretense sheth the israelis released yesterday proved it. >> iran lied on the front end. they were dishonest actors when the sunset provision hits in seven years. they will be much further along in the process and able to make a nuclear weapon much quicker than they have ever indicated the fourth. david: this afternoon before the briefing president donald trump address north korea. he said there a number of different locations that could be the location in the day for north korea meeting with the north korean leader. the president saying the date and location will be announced in a couple of days. >> we are setting up meetings right now and i think it's probably going to be announced over the next couple of days, location and dates. david: the white house very tightlipped about the league's questions from special counsel robert mueller. here they are right now. "fox news" obtained a copy. a call into or major categories. michael flynn the reasons of the firing of james kobe -- james comey fbi dire

well, sara sanders this morning telling cnn that sthe statement from the white house is correct thattment of justice is the one that denied this deal. she's referring to a statement that was made back on november 8th, 2017 by deputy white house press secretary raj shah. and that statement was the president did not speak with the attorney general about this matter and no white house official was authorized to speak with the department of justice on this matter. coming from the white house this morning, contradicting what rudy giuliani has said to the huffington post that the president denied this merger with aet&t and time warner, shes saying that statement from before is correct, that the department of justice denied that deal. we'll be right back. whoamike and jen doyle?than i thought. yeah. time for medicare, huh. i have no idea how we're going to get through this. follow me. choosing a plan can be super-complicated. but it doesn't have to be. unitedhealthcare can guide you through the confusion, with helpful people, tools and plans. including the only plans with the aarp name. wel

remember sara sanders was shocked, you know, when she found out about michael cohen and said she didn't>> the rob porter situation, i know a lot of staffers felt misled about. >> sean spicer was orders god out and make claim about krous sizes that were not true. this is a different world that a lot of these people would have been steeped in washington and communications have to deal with, an unpredictable and whimsical president who doesn't mind necessarily they end up looking embarrassed. >> and as we talk about sort of the turmoil, andrew, inside the west wing, there's this piece related to somebody else tied to the president, scott pru. i the there's this newspaper report that he spent $10,000 on office decor, twice the limit allowed by congress. he now has 14 ongoing, one pending and one complete investigation into his spending. but here's the thing, andrew. when you look at the numbers, like half of america doesn't even know who scott pruitt is. many this is not something that's broken through voters. does the president have any incentive do anything here? >> i don't think he does

his visit here so far the white house press briefing is set to begin with the press secretary sara sanders but certainly it is a difficult sell it does appear the president tweeting today that he thought the raw deal was a mess that he is laying the groundwork for withdrawal could be health of a life in the white house can be thank you. dozens of kenyans have been killed and hundreds of thousands of others have been displaced since march because of heavy rainfall the floods have hit the east african nation just it's recovering from a devastating drought that it's affected half of its counties last year anderson has traveled to mind kili fee county where two hundred small farmers have all lost their land to the river sabbahi. nothing could stop this a back a river from destroying them that provided people with something near to self-sufficiency and abundance of fruits and vegetables used to grow here in fertile soil that's been replaced by silty sand these are only a few of the farmers who have lost their livelihoods by land wars around the corner there one hundred six acres like everyone e

now it turns out white house press secretary sara sanders was asked the same question and, well here her response. >> are there other women out there who received money from the president to stay quiet? >> i'm not aware of any other activity, but i would refer you to rudy giuliani to respond to any of those questions or anybody else on the president's outside counsel. >> this would seem to be a question that you should have an answer for. have i ever made a payment or has anybody on my behalf made a payment to another woman to keep them quiet? no. it has never happened. david urban, why are giuliani and the white house not able to give a definitive answer. >> so sara is speaking for the white house personally. she can't comment on those things. she was kicking it to the mayor to answer. and his answer is obtuse. it is kind of never -- an s.a.t. question, never, ever, all and any. any of those declarative statements and i think he's leaving the door open just in case. >> just a red flag, don't you think? >> i just feel like all of this is more about rudy giuliani than anything else. >

even if the president is correct in saying the president loves this, people say sara sanders and the communication staff have been embarrassed. don mcgahn who is beside himself, what do you think rudy is doing here? >> i would welcome the guys signed the white house to not be anonymous on this stuff and come out and put the names on the stuff and say here's my name, here's what i think. since they don't do that, i find that equally frustrating. but the president played golf with andrew and mayor giuliani on sunday and my guess is that the relationship was -- >> he called shulkin how you doing and fired him five minutes later. >> yeah. it's a little different relationship. i think the relationship with david or secretary shulkin was probably less close than the president's had with the mayor, which i think goes back about 30 years. and so -- and i think these guys have bonded from 9/11 and other areas of their lives. so i don't see this as being a long term problem. think if you're asking me about the strategy, strategy's a totally different element. >> you can be friends -- >> strate

you very much indeed seth being with al jazeera so what do you make of what we just heard with sara sanders hakka be talking about trump in the stormy daniels case is there some sort of disconnect between what she knew and what the administration has expected her to relay to the press today well quite obviously when my friend major garrett who was involved in that last back and forth the white house correspondent of c.b.s. news is a century asking the press secretary have you been lying to us or have you simply not known have you been in the dark and then the prosecco terrorist spawns sensually that she's been in the dark and the us she's been lied to on a bunch of occasions that simply will you know aggravate the obvious inherent disconnect mutual suspicion that there is a political question of course is whether out here in chicago and outside washington and new york whether most people will be impacted if at all by this or whether they've just baked into the equation of their coming to terms with donald trump the fact that he in the media don't like one another we want to explore that con

when asked about it at the briefing just hours later, sara h sanders approved of how they handled thewe'll look into the matter. i've seen the reports. i know epa put out a statement. >> is there any situation where you feel, the white house feels it is appropriate to physically touch or physically handle -- >> i'm not going to weigh into random hype threat ickes that may or may not exist. >> questioning by our friends anita kumar and hallie jackson there today. criticism over this incident mounted quickly, as you can imagine. and please remember, as we tell this story, you're paying for the epa, and they work for you to protect you. senator tom udall, democrat from new mexico, called on pruitt to personally apologize, and richard painter, the former bush white house ethics lawyer put it this way, quote, cnn and ap reporters banned forcibly removed by guards. just like at the kremlin. another break for us. coming up, what a lot of people are saying to the president these days, when we continue. but i'm not standing still... and with godaddy, i've made my ideas real. ♪ i made my own wa

que les estoy contando, vemos, pues, yo creo que el lado mÁs humano de la secretarÍa de prensa, sara sandersensa que ofrecen en la casa blanca todos los dÍas hace una pregunta contundente con respecto a quÉ estÁ haciendo esta administraciÓn para evitar este tipo de ataques con armas y ella es madre de tres niÑos, se vio visiblemente conmovida. asÍ que vamos a enviar estos temas. karla: sorprendente cÓmo nuestros niÑos nos estÁn enseÑando tando y se estÁn convirtiendo en grandes activistas. hablando precisamente de esto, activistas insisten en que varios padres de la caravana de inmigrantes fueron separados de sus hijos. esto pese a que el gobierno asegurÓ que apartarÍa solamente a los que ingresen ilegalmente. aparentemente hay alrededor de seis padres separados de sus hijos. se calcula que unos 15 niÑos estÁn lejos de sus papás en este momento y se dice que quizÁs sean más. tienen mucho miedo, la verdad es que lo hablÁbamos fuera de cámara. esta familia tiene miedo de contestar el telÉfono cuando les llama para decirle que tienes un hijo que se llama tal, con estas caracterÍsticas, tienen m

i would expect a person like press secretary sara huckabee sanders resign because the president knowinglyher lies and wound her up on the white house podium and made her lie for him. if there is any line for a staffer, you cannot work for people who make you lie for them. and unless you are willingly complicit in it. so which one is it. >> and this is an important point. people that live in glass houses should not throw stones. and the people that work for donald trump live in a glass house. the president has been you accused by 12 women. i'm glad that schneiderman is stepping down and the backlash was swept and we should continue to expose folks for the truth. i'm so glad the women had the courage to come forward. but the fact of the matter is sarah huckabee-sanders or anybody else out there on behalf of donald trump is doing so of their own volition. these are grown people that go to the white house press party every single day and lie. and as a press person, i have no respect for that. but i'm also not giving anybody an out. you make a decision to be where you are. and they have chosen

sara huckabee sanders taking questions from reporters. >> has the president had a chance to review thegest them and what does he think about the line of questioning? >> as with all questions of this nature, i would refer you to the president's outside personal attorneys. >> can you tell us what the president's level of confidence is that chief of staff kelly and is he in serious consideration for the veteran affairs nomination. >> he is not being considered as the v.a. secretary. both the president and the chief of staff are happy with his current position. and i would refer you back to general kelly's statement that he put out yesterday specific to the comments that allegations about comments that he'd made. i spend more time with president than anyone else, and we have an incredibly candid and strong relationship. he always knows where i stand and we both know this story is total b.s. i'm committed to the president, his agenda and our country. this is another attempt to distract from the administration's many successes. >> you describe the ncs last night as a clerical error. it was a

>> how often have you heard president trump or sara huckabee sanders ask will the president fire robertr, it happens a lot, right? >> not because we're being repetitive but because it's a question worth asking. >> when you talk to clip, they say the real concern is not necessarily that the president will fire mule, he are it's that they'll take action to fire rod rosenstein or jeff sessions that would result in the mueller probe being constrained. we wouldn't see it. that -- in plan "a" we saw it happen in the senate judiciary committee in the last few weeks. >> this is the bill that the senate senate judiciary passed out of committee that mcconnell said i'm not putting it on the floor. >> that's right. what you see now is you have senator blumenthal, senator to coons working with republicans on what we call plan "b." could it would require that if mueller finishes his investigation that a report is released publicly. that's not required now. he's only requires required to give a report to the justice department. they could put that in or i pocket and never release it. the second thing

as you mentioned earlier, sara huckabee sanders was asked about this on the white house lawn, she said this was all part of the plan and they always expected it. have a listen. >> this is something that we fully expected. the president is very used to writing for tough negotiations and if they want to meet we'll be rtd and if they don't that's acc too. we'll continue with the campaign of maximum pressure if that's the case. but like i just said, if they want to meet the president will certainly be ready and we willing be prepared but if not that's okay. >> it certainly didn't seem expected here at the pentagon. they didn't know it was coming at the state department. they also seem caught off guard. everyone you talk to in this building said that that campaign is having an effect and forced kim jong-un into the negotiating table. the question is if he walks from that table, what does it is a about the strength of the sanctions and is the pentagon and state department going to have to go back to the u.n. to go for another round of sanctions? >> guys. >> thank you, my friend. back with me

and of course this morning, the press secretary sara sanders who has also said that the president knew. there was a bit of a disconnect between what the president said on air force one and the way that rudy giuliani decide how that payment was made. i think it is fair to say there is ongoing litigation and the president's attorneys, who have the greatest amount of visibility into this have spoken about this at length last night and again this morning. the president has put out multiple tweets this morning. you can see she was getting a lot of heat from those reporters about what the president knew and when he knew it, about this money. also about her role in its because she has studied the podium inside the white house and said the president knew nothing about it. now she says the ongoing litigation means she cannot talk about it. she did not feel under those restraints a couple of months ago or on various other occasions. there is a briefing this afternoon at which i think she's going to get even more pressure about what the president knew about this money and when he knew it. thank y

>>the press versus sara sandser >> laura: the press versus sarah sanders, that the focus of tonight angleyesterday, the white house press briefing turned into a total feeding frenzy on spokeswoman sarah huckabee sanders. the white house press corps is up in p arms over the discrepany between what she told the press previously that the president had no knowledge of the payments made to stormy daniels, and what rudy giuliani revealed this wee week. >> if you are in the dark, i think it's a fairly simple question -- >> i've answered several times that i've given you the best information i had. >> laura: familiar trunk and >> enemies joined the anti-sanders mob. >> have we ever gotten any truth out of them? have we ever got to the point where not only has she lost the room but they have become null and void? she's lying to the american public. beingnd ignorant or lying aboutt is not an excuse. it is no comment a better option? why not have the briefings. if you are just going to lie, why bother? >> this is how democracies die, slowly and right in front of us. every single day, deception and l

sanders the podium. >> i'd like to welcome the secretary to the podium to speak about this and as always i will be back with other news of the day. >> thank you sara. good afternoon everyone. as a president said earlier we need a system for prescription drug prices outputs america's patients first and one that takes care of america's patients and doesn't take advantage of them. what i wanted to do was put a frame together for the actions he will seal a blueprint, and what the president and i talked about today so you have a sense of where we are going. there are four major problems that we face. the first is high list prices for drugs, the second is government rules that get in the way of plans, getting good deals for our senior citizens in our medicare program. the third is foreign countries free writing off of american innovation, and fourth is high out-of-pocket costs for our seniors. the president has already made a lot of progress in this regard. in the first year and a half an office the fda has approved more generic drugs than ever before in history, saving $8.8 billion in the first year. we also changed medicare's reimbursement rolls to br
