that message and the other thing about nancy pelosi, it really sounded an awful lot like donald trump 'sf fake news. kennedy: is a kernel of truth to this? is she on to something that they are establishment forces within the media who want to dispose of her so they can bring in someone new? >> surprise, surprise! the media wants is not drama in the race for leadership. kennedy: or trying to find -- >> i see the interview and i am like a looks like she might have gone to the beach and she's trying to get her groove back. this is a good thing for democrats. we don't walk in the same way that devin nunes look, the other day talking about how he had to divert the law to support the president. there is no one in the republican party willing to challenge him. that's a good thing to have democrats challenging the leadership. and she is welcoming it and she is saying when -- [multiple speakers] kennedy: anyone that opposes her is going to see revenge. >> and what man has not done that in the speakers position before? there is a double standard when it comes to a nancy pelosi. on the show i have

trump jr.'s statement said we primarily discussed a program about the adoption of russian children. no mention that it was about getting russian dirt on hillary clinton. >> you're sending your son, a family member, to talk with a foreign government that is an active enemy or potential adversary at least of this country to talk about information that you could use against your opponent, the optics of that are absolutely terrifying and very disturbing. >> reporter: the president previously acknowledged the true purpose of the meeting days after the initial misleading statement was issued by his son. >> i think from a practical standpoint most people would have taken that meeting. it is called opposition research or even research into your opponent. >> reporter: even as the white house offered conflicting explanations, insisting it was about russian adoptions. >> there was nothing as far as we know that would lead anyone to believe that there was anything except for discussion about adoption. >> reporter: the president's team also mislead the public about whether mr. trump was involved

not on donald trump 's personal payroll or the corporation payroll per se, he's a federal employee. so there are different standards that he would need to meet in any case. even though in some respects he is the president's lawyer. but it is not a campaign job or something for the president's businesses. eric: that is very important distinction compared to let's say, rudy giuliani who is the president's personal lawyer. mcgahn really is lawyer for the office of the presidency. as you bring up, what type of different standards when he then have? he would not be able to stop maybe subpoenas, he would not be able to totally ignore requests from capitol hill or from investigators because he has that duty. under government job and not being the private attorney for the president. >> and i think the question will be particularly if he will be staying in this job for the foreseeable future. based on the president's tweets and we've heard so far it does not sound like he will be kicked out of the door over this new york times report. so i think that will be really the question is, how much

the white house said repeatedly that president trump s not facing any charges as the president is worng to discredit his one-time confidant. michael cohen, the president's one-time attorney and cleanup man, already spilling a lot about his former boss and it appears he is not done yet. >> michael cohen has told me that he's going to tell the truth to whoever asks him, whether it be a congressional committee, a prosecutor or somebody ingt washin. >> reporter: cohen facing prison ti for campaign finance violations, admitting he was directed b t donald trum pay hush money to two women whose stories of affairs could have derailed his campaign. >> i american history, i don't know how many times a president of the united states sitting haa beenused of a felony by prosecutors. >> reporter: the president today telling fox business he did not know about the payments until later. >> my first question when i heard about it was, did they come out of e campaign? because that could be a little dicey. they didn't come out of the campaign.od >> reporter: on twitter, comparing cohen to former campaign m

senior staffer for republican senators, ted cruz and -- provide a critical analysis of president trump 's political message. mark adams shared his experience retracing the 1899 expedition through alaska. we explore the differences in the regions climate between then and now. and former white house secretary, spicer. -- they discuss gender bias in the military. this weekend former intelligence officer, examines cyber warfare and other tactics used by russia to interfere with the 2016 presidential election. >> we found over the last two years that many of the -- introduced into the election were not of american origin. that they were crafted by foreign intelligence agencies outside the united states. and for professionals like myself who grew up in the cold war ... they want you to pick up a fake story and in fact three or four or ten people inside your facebook channel or twitter feed and they would do the same thing in a daisychained to create an unbreakable link of false narratives. at that point nothing you believe before can ever be real because you will abandon it on the basis that it

provide evidence remotely harmful to the president joining me right now is rudy guiliani president trump 's attorney. give us a status check where the investigation with the special counsel stands today. >> well it should be over and the one thing left is they want to question the president. right now, we're going back and forth with letters to try to set out ground rules. we wrote them a letter a week and a half ago they haven't responded yet which tells me they're not in a rush and someone just asks me well are you delaying? hardly in comparison to the special counsel. we've been going since june and we responded in two, three days, four days they responded in two weeks, and these are all-important things to whether you can do an interview or not particularly in light of the fact that they already have all of the information they're going to ask us about except they don't have it under oath from the president so then we get very nervous that they're trying to trap him into perjury which is not supposed to be what they are doing they should be trap ping people into a crime, if a crime is a
