former trump campaign manager paul manafort met this morning with the senate intelligence committee and answered their questions fully according to his spokesperson, this as he's subpoenaed by the senate judiciary. >> the president trump's son-in-law jared kushner is back on capitol hill right now answering questions under oath before the house intel committee after he was interviewed by senate intelligence committee staffers yesterday. also breaking, we're watching for senator john mccain's return to capitol hill for the first time since being diagnosed with brain cancer. he's coming to cast what could be a make or break vote on the republican effort to advance a health care bill. this of course is the house of representatives prepares to vote on a bill that would slap new sanctions on russia, north korea and iran and limit the president's power to remove sanctions. >> that is a republican controlled senate working around the president so they can try to move forward on sanctions. all of that while president trump is viciously attacking are you ready for this, his own attorney general,

now, today of course jared kushner interviewed with the senate intelligence committee. tomorrow he will be talking to the house intelligence committee. but today president trump is already getting into a little bit of a twitter spat with the top democrat on that committee. congressman adam schiff, president trump said on twitter, sleazesy adam shove. a biassed congressman looking into russia. he spends all of his time on television pushing the dem's loss execution. and adam schiffer said with respect, mr. president, the problem is how often you watch tv. so pretty sharp barbs being traded ahead of day two for jared kushner on capitol hill tomorrow, shep. >> shepard: there's a bill working its way through congress. it's about punishing the russians, putting more sanctions on the russians. the white house had been lobbying against this bill. but now it has a veto-proof majority. once that comes forward, looks like the president will sign it. >> right. a little bit of confusion here. the back story is that yesterday the new white house press secretary, sarah huckabee sande

the senate intelligence committee says it wants to speak to donald trump jr.he president, it's a reminder that not everything goes his way. gavin hewitt, bbc news, washington. live now to our correspondent david willis. the story is still moving, bring us up the story is still moving, bring us up to date. there have been reverberations around the day. there have been calls from democratic and republican senators for donald trump junior to testify before the senate intelligence committee, which is looking into alleged trump campaign ties to russia, one of a number of congressional investigations into that subject and of course there's the enquiry being led by the special counsel, the former fbi director robert muller, as well. donald trump jrfor his part has said he robert muller, as well. donald trump jr for his part has said he would robert muller, as well. donald trump jrfor his part has said he would be willing to testify before the senate intelligence committee. he's said the meeting with the russian lawyer, as he put it on twitter today, went nowhere. he

let's start with susan rice bailing on the house intelligence committee indefinitely, but at least for now. but still seemingly willing to talk to the senateligence committee, we are told. but a date uncertain as to when she would do that. are these two committees getting played here? >> they may be. but the committee has an option. subpoena her. make her appear before the committee. lou: what if she chooses to say no, can't do it because it would be incriminating whatever the case. sent law enforcement after her, take her to the capital and make her testify. there is every reason why she should testify. these are important issues. the most of important issue is i think the intelligence community, it appears with what i have heard the last 6 to 7 months. they have taken the ability to capture american conversationsover seas and they started to abuse this. when they capture your call or my call, they are supposed to deep six it. it appears too many of these coverings meade their way to the white house. they were unmasked too often. what is samantha powers, an implementer of foreign policy, not an analyst, why is she part of this unmasking?

it is the senate intelligence committee. ll the committees, they do tend to have the most private closed door sessions for obvious reasons. they tend to talk about the nation's secrets. in this case, though, you know, if you just kind of think about the pure and raw politics of it, you would think that jared kushner, if he had nothing to hide, would want to come out in public. but, again, this is not negating the idea of doing it later. i think that it's interesting that after all of these months that all of a sudden next week you're going to have three of the main players testifying within 24, 48 hours, which is pretty remarkable now in the case of kushner, and gloria has been doing a lot of reporting on this, this is a long time coming. this is something that has been negotiated and has been going back and forth between jared's lawyers and the intelligence committee for months. >> and don't forget, he has had to update his security clearance form numerous times. and, so, i'm sure that will be part of their questioning, whic

how does today's questioning with the senate intelligence committee influence of some of the questioningwill not be privy to you later in the week between the committee, paul manafort and donald trump, jr.? >> what i would say on that point, i want to stick to the facts, the congressional committee is launching an independent investigation of their own lane. i would not expect that members of the senate committee would share information with senate judiciary or house intelligence. the person they are dealing with is special counsel robert mueller and their counsel. sharing information about the council, but i would leave the door open at this point. this is not a very typical story. i guess i could say that. >> harris: catherine herridge, we will come back to you as a news warrants. we are waiting jared kushner to step up. i want to come to you, stephen on this. the dnc, the deputy chairperson, communications director is on the record responding to all of this with a pretty blistering, i guess a boilerplate in terms of how anti-at the white house that they are shown to be on the issue of

jared kushner over on capitol hill is behind closed doors talking with staffers on the senate intelligence committeehis is all happening, the president is online. he's on twitter writing, "so why aren't the committees and investigators and, of course, our beleaguered ag looking into crooked hillary's crimes and russia relations? let us be clear here if the ag is beleaguered it is mostly because the president is doing the beleaguering and that is the president calling on his own justice department to investigate a former political opponent. joining me is kathleen clark specializing in legal ethics. kathleen, initial reactions to that tweet, rhetoric and langua we're hearing from the president. >> it sure likes the president is attempting to undermine justice department, attorney general in an attempt to protect himself and associates. >> would you encourage continued tweets of this nature? i would think not. >> i wouldn't, but i don't think the president takes advice from the likes of me or the likes of anyone. >> what's hpg on capitol hill. we're talking about that statement from jared kushner, 11 p

senate intelligence committee. we received word over the weekend that paul manafort, former campaign manager and donald trump jr. will likely testify behind closed doors and meet with members of the senate on wednesday in a nonpublic hearing. all of this comes as the investigations are continuing. the president's comments continuing. and the president's legal team getting somewhat of a shake up as they look to develop a strategy. look for them to try to focus on the intelligence communities, what they perceive to be conflicts of interest, try to politicize this as the investigation continues. >> daniel, let me review what gop congressman michael mccaul told andrea mitchell friday on whether president trump would fire robert mueller. take a listen. >> sort of looks paranoid to me and the fact is i know bob mueller a long time, i worked the justice department, he is a man of integrity, highly respected in washington. when he was picked, very bipartisan support for this man. we need to let him do his job, wherever tha

and we've time ago i spoke with democratic senator joe manchin from west virginia who signs on the intelligence committee. senator mansion did find jared kushner credible today when he said in that statement he did not collude with russia. well more ominous take everyone interface study there was no. jared commit. i was not in the me. staff only the staff does the preliminary meetings. we were briefed i was briefed as a committee member at two o'clock. and that there be a time hopefully will surely come before the full committee but. i'm gonna take it taken mentor there was no read for him to mislead guy anyway shape or form. i mean yeah unconvinced by jared kushner i when he says that he went to this meeting with multiple russians and donald trump junia. apparently not knowing the russians were offering dutch on hillary clinton because he had been my delete miles. well he knows an awful lot of people that were involved with the russians and we know the russians were very much involved in our camp. trying to disrupt the public's confidence. and a democratic process that we have a democracy as we know it

it comes as the senate intelligence committee has called on trump jr. to testify. president trump telling reporters aboard air force one, "he should, if he wants to." saying "it was a short

he is a key senator of the intelligence committee. thank you for being with us. >> thank you for having me. >> what was your reaction when you heard what was going on this morning with these e-mails? >> as a former prosecutor, my reaction was these e-mails are a textbook example and evidence of criminal intent. i can almost hear the closing arguments of the jury using "i love it," repeating again and again, "i love it." those three words are going to haunt donald trump jr. because they are a clear signal that he is looking for information, dirt, on hillary clinton from the russian government and expecting an agent of the russian government to be providing it to him, and having the meeting showing, and again signalling, the trump campaign is open for business. we will accept information no matter how it is obtained legally or illegally. and that is potentially a violation of the fbi, yes, treason, and it is potentially a violation of the prohibitions of defrauding the government through conspiracy, against cyber fraud and abuse. there

moments the president's son-in-law and one of his top aides, jared kushner, will face the senate intelligence committeefour to six senate staff will be with his lawyer, his attorney, and staffer. they'll take notes of the meeting. he has provided documents, as well as his formal statement. they finalized, we learned, over the weekend. >> one of the more interesting things here we're getting word from suzanne malveaux on capitol hill. the meeting will be tribed and kushner's lawyer has no problem with the transcript being made public. it is up to senate protocol, says kushner's legal team, in that case. and also kushner has no preference as to whether he goes under oath for the interview. he is willing to do sworn testimony if asked. even if he's not sworn in, he can't lie to senate investigators. that is something that has come up before. no question that kushner will not answer, and that it will take two hours. >> all of these things show jared kushner, seemingly wanting to be very transparent. let's see if we get that transcript. >> as of now, after all these months. >> now. >>> while that is going o

the senate intelligence committee in a closed session on monday. donald trump jr. and ex-campaign manager paul manafort are scheduled to speak at an open meeting at the senate judiciary hearing. that's on wednesday. both trump jr. and manafort have yet to confirm their appearances. this as the "new york times" published their financial records filed in seep russ, and they -- as much as $17 million. now, the records were certified as accurate by an accounting firm as of december 2015. just a few months before manafort joined the trump campaign. now, responding to the report, a

been doing reporting on this, there had been an agreement for manafor to the assist the senate intelligence committee in their investigation. this judiciary committee wanted to see the documents and information surrounding that. essentially, there seems to be no agreement that was made on that, so the judiciary committee said, okay, fine, we will compel you to come up here and do what we are asking you to do t. judiciary committee is a very powerful committee up here on capitol hill and the fact that there is bipartisan agreement between grassley and feinstein to do this, i think is pretty significant and one place where the judiciary committee is focused is the department of justice, you could see more coming out of this committee. >> prior to this news breaking, a source told me paul manafor is the working to accommodate all these requests he is getting from members of congress. let's set the stage for a second t. reason you are stalking the hallways on the senate side is not because of what's happening with jared kushner at least not today, even though we know right now she behind closed doors tal

senate committee. in addition to saying he's done nothing wrong, he's telling members of the senate intelligent committee, he's not relied on russian funds to finances his business activity. seth has more on the behi closed door hearing. >> jared atelling senate intelligence committee investigators he did not collude with russia during the tam campaign. >> around the same time he met with the russian ambassador to the u.s. he's looking to find a line of communication. >> today was the first meeting for kushner,. >> his counsel said when they come available for two hours, we expect this a first interview. there's a great many questions. >> president trump this morning. spending all your time on television pushing the excuse. he then took a shot at his own attorney general jeff sessions calling him belegered. last week, the president told the new york times he wouldn't nominated sessions the head of department of justice if he had known sessions was going to recuses himself from the russian investigation. >> kushner again will appear before the house intelligence committee on tuesday. president trump is se

the senate intelligence committee says it wants to speak to donald trump jr.resident, it's a reminder that not everything goes his way. gavin hewitt, bbc news, washington. our correspondent, david willis, gave me the latest updates in washington, on reports of how trumpjunior‘s links and meetings with the russian lawyer were formed. this story is moving, another development. the new york times, which broke the story of this meeting on sunday, is now reporting that donald trump junior was informed by e—mail that the compromising information he was to receive about hillary clinton from this russian lawyer was all part of a russian government attempt to basically assist the donald trump candidacy. it has been seen by three people and information was passed on to the new york times. that report is unconfirmed at this time. the e—mail is said to have come from a man called rob goldsten. it was he who brokered the meeting between donald trump junior and the russian lawyer, according to the new york times, a former publicist and tabloid journalist. it is clear this e

as you may remember, the senate intelligence committee wa nts to the senate intelligence committee wants a go at this and the top democrat on the committee mark warner has called this very disturbing and wonders why it has taken so long for facts to come out about this controversial meeting between donald jr, about this controversial meeting between donaldjr, the about this controversial meeting between donald jr, the trump campaign manager paul manafort and this russian lawyer. it seems every day there's a new revelation. it's taken some time for anything to urge about the second meeting at the 620 between mr trump and mr putin with only a russian interpreter present. there's more emerging now, though? actually just now there's more emerging now, though? actuallyjust now mr there's more emerging now, though? actually just now mr trump there's more emerging now, though? actuallyjust now mr trump himself just tweeted about this, he said fa ke just tweeted about this, he said fake news story of secret dinner with putin is sick, all 620 leaders and spouses were invited by the chancellor of

and we anticipate he will echo what he told staff members at the senate intelligence committee, which is that he said he didn't collude with russia and he has nothing to hide. and, of course, he gave more details about those meetings that he had with russian officials, including that meeting with donald trump jr., which you just referenced. he said he didn't know what the meeting was about when he went and when he arrived, he didn't feel it was very useful so he left after about ten minutes. let me read you part of his prepared statement, chris. he says, "that e-mail, meaning the e-mail from donald trump jr., was on top of a long back and forth that i did not read at the time. i arrived at the meeting a little late. when i got there, the person who has since been identified as a russian attorney was talking about the issue of a ban on u.s. adoptions of russian children. i had no idea why that topic was being raised, and quickly determined that my time was not well-spent at this meeting. no part of the meeting i attended included anything about the campaign. there was no followup to th

he spoke publicly after his two-hour session with the senate intelligence committee staffers, and he released the lengthy written statement offering new details about his russia meetings and insisting he did nothing improper. >>> also breaking, the president warns senate republicans there is still time to, quote, do the right thing and support the party's promise to repeal and replace obamacare. mr. trump delivering prepared remarks on the eve of a senate vote on whether to move forward with some form of health care legislation. and as tensions escalate between the president and the attorney general, jeff sessions, mr. trump's new communications director tells cnn that the two men need to speak to determine the future of their relationship. the president is publicly slamming sessions once again, calling him beleaguered in a new tweet and asking why he isn't investigating hillary clinton. this hour i'll talk about those stories and more with congressman gregory meeks. he's a democrat on the foreign affairs committee. then our correspondents and specialists are also standing by. first,

day because on choose say hell be testifying in front of members of the house intelligence committee. today was the senate intelligence committee so well have to also similar maybe the same questions again. and we don't yet know exactly how he answered those questions what we have is an eleven page introduction a testimony from him. that he released early this morning and we have what you just saw what he said outside of the west wing of the white house. defending himself the transcripts of what happened today and what happen tomorrow of course we do not have yet. then there are other members who are involved it's not just jared kushner who's been questions on wednesday the s. senate judiciary committee asked for. paul manifold the former campaign manager for donald trump and donald trump junior the son to testify in public now they would necessarily testify in public we don't know exactly what's going to happen there yet. but they will be interviewed or at the very least will hand over some documents. that's what we have for some of the individuals involved here then the investigations wheelbarrow three

i would have to think because he testified before the senate intelligence committee and still has to speak to the house intelligence committee and all been behind closed doors and you can't expect him to say much more than i told them what i needed to tell them and i look forward to having further conversations. your point is exactly right. we are even supposed to be having a different conversation. neil: this came. >> that's what happens, right, a new show or it's people in washington, that this investigation is hanging over everything and, you know, the administration to be fair hasn't done the best job in making it go away. stories have changed or either updated with filings or meetings with embassadors, the meeting at trump tower and that gives the story new light. neil: you know what happens is there's always stuff out there and i can understand what kushner was saying about the additional run-ins he had with the russian embassador, i certainly understand what he means but you would think that they all had a meeting, do you know of any other meetings in international house of pan

>> we expect him to be questioned by staffers on the senate intelligence committee. o senators are planning to be there. this is mostly a staff-led operation here. they'll go methodically through his statements and any paperwork or documents he may have brought and hit him with some of the questions. as you saw him arriving, some of the reporters were commenting on how smooth this operation has been here today. this is somebody who wants to at least project the sense that he's here voluntarily and happy to help and submitted this public statement. as you can see most of the congressional and washington media assembled here on the possibility that he or any of the senators may come out afterwards and provide any additional information. we expect this to go a couple of hours as the investigators tick through the campaign and the transition now with jared kushner in the building. >> i want to bring in chief correspondent from bloomberg and rick and christine. this is not just an important day for jared kushner and the trump family and legal experts and the media are payi

senate side. that is what they discussed. now, he also agreed to come back at a later date, i'm told, and talk to the full committee, senate intelligence committee, and staff, to discuss other topics related to the russia investigation. this comes, wolf, as the senate judiciary committee now demanding that paul manafort appear tomorrow in a public setting. this after, an effort to try to talk to him privately fell apart, because according to the senate judiciary committee, manafort only agreed to give one transcribed interview to aening cou and that the senate intelligence committee. as a result, a subpoena issued today, last night, by the judiciary committee for manafort to appear tomorrow. the question is what will happen if manafort does not appear? what will the committee do then? dianne be feinstein addressed this moments ago. >> we can hold him in contempt, and that's a more complicated process. i hope that's not the case. i think he said that he would testify in public, and i think this is important for him to do so. i think it's important that members of the committee have an opportunity to see him. he's a very complicated figu

and where it goes from here is the senate intelligence committee. tweeted he would be happy to share information he knows with those congress alinvestigators. one source is tilg our team hoefr approximate in washington that it is the expectation that you will be seeing campaign officials from the trump team be meeting with these congress alinvestigators as well on senate intel. we are watching to see what develops on that. since you asked about the timeline, let me work through this. let me pull up that tweet. happy to work with the committee to pals on what i know. this is something that we've heard as well from other members of the trump administration, people who are close to the president. i think of jared kushner through a spokesperson saying he was also happy to work with the senate intelligence committee 6789 people volunteering to share information once they sort of get asked to do so or it's out in the ether that they're being asked to do so. you read a little bit of what he had to say. and let me read you a little bit more too. when he tal

today jared kushner met with the senate intelligence committee. tomorrow he meets with the house intelligence committee. both of those meetings are behind closed doors. for some reason today's was not under oath but tomorrow's is under oath, which i don't get at all. but honestly congress can be a little hard to follow when it comes to closed hearings and classified material. but there are two other things to watch for that are about to happen that i think are worth sticking at the top of the show tonight. right before the election you might remember that slate.com made a splash with a long densely-reported piece about unexplained extensive data transfers maybe? at least extensive electronic communication between a computer server associated with the trump campaign and one associated with alpha bank. alpha sbang large russian closely linked to vladimir putin. alpha bank maintains that the transfers between its server and the server connected to the trump organization, the alpha bank maintains that those electronic communications were totally innocu

for him to be interviewed by the senate intelligence committee behind closed doors and now when he comes out we expect to hear him speak. >> reporter: especially when you look at what happens tomorrow, when jared kushner goes back to the hill to talk to members of the house intelligence committee. there is a gaggle, a group of reporters and photographers that have gathered. this is traditionally where you might see mitch mcconnell and senate leadership make statements, they can come out, make a few remarks and head back inside the west wing. that is where we expect to hear from jared kushner when he returns to the hill and wraps up the meeting with the intelligence committee staffers. we are told that he will not take questions, but he will make a statement. remember that from a messaging perspective, jared kushner has his own west wing officials who handle his communications. and they have sent out, early, early this morning, before the morning shows aired, what jared kushner was expected to tell, that 11-page statement that you showed us. noticeably more surrogates from the campaign, l

wing was enough or if he, senator marchen wants to see him in front ever his committee in public setting. >> today he appeared before the staff of the senate senate intelligenceat's the procedure they go through, the intelligence committee with the kmarm and vice chairman. the procedure is the staff goes through different questions and tries to put the puzzle together the best they possibly can. then we had of an informal briefing at 2:00. the members we had an informal briefing what they talked about. in until we get the transcripts in front of us at the formal meeting that decision will be made to bring him forward. i think there is enough interest where jared would come before the kpt, the full committee, the intelligence. >> what will your reaction be if the president fires mueller or if the president tries to pardon members of his own family. >> let's talk about mr. mueller first. i just -- i think there would be a severe reaction up here because of the person doesn't have a stellar reputation and the stellar career and give so much service to our country at the highest level and have the -- have the total cohesion of republicans and democrats believing
