i think that josh shapiro has a real commitment to wanting to restore the integrity of the office.hink he didn't want to have questioning. he'd rather go through a legitimate legal process and let the facts come out. >> right. well, i think people want to know how did it happen? what happened with this guy? we heard that he got a lawyer almost instantly, and i still don't know the story. was something thrown at the vehicle? is that what happened? why would you end up with this kind of carnage and not get an answer? >> it's gonna be a tough case. >> the only facts that we do know that have been reported are that there were no substance-abuse issues. he was tested for everything. he was not on his cellphone, which is what a lot of people wondered about whether or not it was an episode of distracted engineering, if i can call it that. but i also think that, to the point made earlier on the subject of there are eight people dead and a lot of people injured, and he was at the helm. so what's intriguing to me -- and i defer to the lawyers here. i don't understand -- it makes sense to me

. >> with me daniel shapiro, former u.s. a.mbassador to israel.ael under president reagan and former ambassador russia under president clinton. ambassador pickering, first to you. tell me what you think about -- we've seen the public face where israel says everything is great with the united states, relations are great. prime minister netanyahu seems very content. what do you think is going on behind the scenes between israel and the united states after that potential security breach? >> well, we've seen there were leaks of israeli security officials expressing concern. but the prime minister obviously wants to receive the president and he wants to do it in a responsible way. so he's downplaying that. the deep concern that american intelligence officials have is that it will lead to the loss of sources, maybe to the loss of life. and obviously, that's not either in israel's interests or the united states' interest. >> ambassador shapiro, your thoughts and i regrethat -- i realize why weon't kw it. i don't know the exact content of what the preside

adam shapiro. >>> the battle whether this is a legal mess for the president of the united states comesversus the former fbi director's word there. were only two of them in the private dining room in the white house, and in that room that james comey said the president urged him to lay off, essentially general flynn. president said that never happened. it's a he said/he said thing. what's the fallout? for the time being, blake burman on that. >> reporter: remarkable to follow this on this day, essentially there has been silence from the white house as it relates to the fallout. they put out the initial statement last night saying the "new york times" article, the conversation detailed was not a truthful or accurate portrayal. since then, nothing else forward, no direct on camera comments from the president. he hasn't taken to twitter as well. however, just a little while ago, and you probably saw the comments live, the president seemed to allude to all of the negative headlines coming out his way, and he had t another message as it relates to the dia. this was his speech in which he tal

adam shapiro is live with more. >> when we talk, shep, about cuts to medicaid, remember that the affordablee act that congress passed a few weeks ago would save about $800 billion over ten years. so it's a crucial part of any budget proposal that the trump administration puts forward. this will all be rolled out officially tomorrow morning when mick mulvaney takes this to the hill. look a what has happened in the past. we always had administrations promise to try to balance the budget and restrain spending. in 2016, the budget was $3.8 trillion with a deficit of $585 billion. in 2017, $4 trillion with a deficit of $603 billion. so the trump administration has to adhere to the president's promises to restrain government spending. how they do that? we'll find out in a few hours, won't we? >> not likely to take effect in this form, this budget, right? >> one way you could ask this, will the republicans in the senate buy into any kind of cut to medicaid that might total as much as $800 billion over ten years when they have already said publicly that is a nonstarter. so this budget in some opini

adam shapiro has more. adam, the big takeaway here, good news people should be celebrating, james clapper under oath saying no, there was no collusion between donald trump campaign and russia itself. i mean that is the narrative that had been pushed over and over again by the mainstream mediaport port trish, sometimes the answer to one question can obviously raise self others. so former national intelligence director james clapper testified there was no evidence of collusion between the trump campaign and russian officials. president trump tweeted, director clapper reiterated what everybody including the fake media already knows. there is no evidence of collusion with russia and trump. but clapper also said he was unaware while serving as director of national intelligence that the fbi was conducting a counterintelligence investigation. yates on the other hand testified that the reason she contacted white house about former national security advisor michael flynn had to do with flynn's conversations with rus

here with a preview on what it entails is fox business' adam shapiro.live from the white house. adam. >> hey, e mac. you know, they haven't released official numbers yet, but you can probably guess that president trump on the campaign trail that he wouldn't touch social security, medicare, medicaid. now, what the numbers look like when they're finally taken to the hill tomorrow, at this point is starting to shape up, according to news reports as a big cut to medicaid. now, remember, there was an $800 billion savings when the house of representatives passed the affordable care act, the american health care act. and that $800 billion savings or cut to medicaid spending is something that the president has said he would be in favor of because it is a gigantic savings for the u.s. taxpayer. and it could also be the foundation for a budget going forward. but officially, the white house isn't saying anything about 800 billion-dollar cut to medicaid, but it is already part of the aahca. here's what you need to watch in the next day. you're going to see nick mul

wascine: angela merkel talking about the impact shapiro was having on surplus and she as alaming, iner words, side effect of the ecb policy. what do you make of that? axel: it was probably more an explanation because germany has been on the receiving side of its trade circles and it is one of the countries that has one of the longest trade councils. as a result of the monetary union, where germany is one of the strongest members, the average of the european union, which the reflected in the euro training, is weaker than germany as an economy, so it germany in isolation would prove we have a stronger currency -- for me, a good approximation of a shadow german economy has been strong. if you see how this strengthened over the years and how switzerland had difficulties in ,ealing with a stronger franc which is overvalued in terms of exports, you can see a stronger currency puts pressure on exports. at the same time, it has opened the path to reserve. in the foreign exchange market, they're the ones that usually give their competitors much faster, so a strong currency does have some adva

i want to bring in daniel shapiro and ishan, foreign affairs reporter for "the washington post."hank you for joining me. daniel, i want to start with you. give me your take of day one for president trump. >> it looked like a pretty successful day. the saudis gave him an extraordinarily warm welcome with the extravagance that the president probably appreciates. they got a lot out of that deal, out of that welcome with the $110 million arms deal. he got something out of it with the pledges of saudi investment into the united states. what's less clear is what was agreed, if anything, on the security issues that motivate the saudis, particularly iran, and whether the united states will take a different and more aggressive posture towards iran or back saudi's proxy war. >> important to know we're looking at live pictures here of president trump exiting there. he's -- i'm being told he's being blocked. now his block has moved. you can see president trump sitting in that car being driven away from the museum as he just d a tour, as krist welke just told us. while we look at these images

let's go ahead and play that clip from that same fox interview he gave to judge s shapiro toward the end of last week. >> i thought this would be a very popular thing that i did when i terminated comey because all of the democrats couldn't stand him, but because i terminated him they said oh, we get some political points, we'll go against trump. i assumed it would be very popular and they got together and said, again, we're talking obstruction. this is total obstruction. >> so there you are the hear expressing his surprise at the way democrats responded to this. and it's interesting this backs up our reporting from earlier in the week that suggests that the reason that the white house was so surprised by the response was that not enough seasoned political hands were involved in making this decision. we know that the president likes to get the opinions of a lot of people on a number of issues when he's considering making a big decision. he didn't do that with him. this was something that was closely held to the vest. even the communications team which would be tasked with explaining t
