Raid raided Michael Cohens home and office. Some believe this is really meant to send a message to Michael Cohen to stay loyal. What are you hearing from the administration . Reporter hey there, ana. Nothing just yet. Weve asked them for clarity on a couple of points on these tweets from the president. Clearly, unhappy about this coverage regarding his personal relationship with attorney Michael Cohen. Shedding some negative light on their relationship. Maggie haberman citing six different sources that told her for a long time the president has treated his personal attorney poorly, like an animal. I should point out that in the rest of the president s tweets, he does go after a number of others as well. He writes that the New York Times is using nonexistent sources and a drunk, druggedup loser who hates michael, a fine person with a wonderful family. Michael is a businessman for his own account, a lawyer who ive always liked and respected. Most people will flip if the government lets them out of trouble, even if it means lying or making up stories. He says he does not see Michael Cohen doing that, despite the horrible witch hunt and the dishonest media. It is interesting that the president is tweeting this after that article was published just a few days after cnn confirmed that legal experts have told the president that he should be prepared in case Michael Cohen does flip. In other words, if Michael Cohen has any sort of incriminating information about the president , that it is likely that he will use it for leniency to get a lighter sentence, according to sources, that was made clear to the president , so it is noteworthy that hes taking this approach, saying that he does not believe that cohen would go against him that way. Of course, that is supposing that cohen has some information on the president either doing something illegal or presiding over some sort of illegal act. Boris sanchez reporting from west palm beach, florida. Lets get some perspective on the cohen case, trumps tweets and more fallout from the comey memos. Joining us now, cnn political commentator ryan lizza, legal analyst and josh campbell. Carrie, do you see the president s tweets from this morning as a personal plea to cohen not to flip . Its hard as always to get inside the president s mind and figure out his motives but one could look at these, given the pattern of activity that he has had since hes been in office of tweeting about investigations in a way that could be interpreted to be trying to affect a witness or affect somebody involved in one of these investigationsment. So from the perspective of what it might be like to be a lawyer advising him, it would be very difficult to have a client who is consistently inserting themselves in the most public way into some type of ongoing litigation that could affect him. Ryan, as i read this article from the New York Times, it made me feel bad for cohen. It sounds like he was treated horrible. But if trump truly did treat him as bad as the New York Times is reporting, why has he been so loyal to trump . Does it make sense to you . Well, hes benefitted quite handsomely from his relationship with donald trump over the years. In the legal filings in the dispute over the warrants, for instance, its noted that he won a 500,000 retainer with a law firm and his only job was to refer clients to a prominent lobbying firm. So, i think hes benefitted quite a bit from his relationship with trump, being loyal, going on tv with this sort of overthetop praise for trump has made him, frankly, a very wealthy person. I think thats the easiest explanation there. As to the tweets, ana, there is so much to unpack in those three tweets, because he theres a sort of longterm, fraught relationship with three individuals mentioned in that tweet. The first is Maggie Haberman, generally considered one of the best reporters on the white house beat who has known trump for years and years and who despite what trump says has an ongoing relationship. In fact, theres a documentary about the New York Times coming out soon and the trailer for the documentary, one of the first clips in the trailer has a shot of Maggie Haberman talking about how trumps about to call her. So, its just not true that he doesnt know her or talk to her. We do know that he reaches out to her frequently, especially when he wants to talk about the news, as weve been reporting in the first year of this presidency. Josh, s josh, is it smart for the president to be tweeting at all about the comey investigation . Its not. The legal answer is the more information thats out there, the more you are on record commenting on an Ongoing Investigation in something that may haunt you down the road. We know the president is very adept at using social media to attempt to influence narrative s but you have to scare that with what it means legally. I took great exception to one of the lines in the tweet this morning where he said that most people will flip if the government lets them out of trouble, even if its based on a lie. I can tell you that Law Enforcement officers, thats not going to sit well with them because they take cooperating witnesses very seriously and if someone is lying, thats not someone whos of value to you. Their goal is to find the truth. The president is also tweeting about the comey memos. Weve learned the Justice Departments internal watchdog is now looking into how comey handled those memos, who he may have given access to, classified information. On this, trump tweeted, james comey illegally leaked classified documents to the press in order to generate a special counsel, therefore the special counsel was established ba based on an illegal act. Really, does everybody know what that means . Carrie, what does it mean . First of all, looking at the memos that have been released that former director comey wrote, they really are consistent with everything that he has previously said in his public testimony and also what he wrote in his book. So, i think from the president s perspective, the difficulty if anyone thought that these memos were going to be released and those were going to discredit the factual narrative that the former director had laid out, thats just not correct. On the issue of potentially leaking classified information, i havent seen any allegation that the actual memos that he has that director comey provided to his associate which then got released actually was the memos that were classified. So, i think there still is some question about which memos actually he provided to his associate and then what of that information got released to the media. It is it does appear that some of the information that he originally wrote as an unclassified memo has been retroactively classified by the department of justice. Of course he was originally, i believe, as fbi director would have been an original Classification Authority so if he wrote a memo that he thought was unclassified and it was not derived from some other document, these are memos that he was creating himself, it seems to be a stretch to allege that there was classified. But again, i think theres more reporting that we will see in that area. Well, there is reporting from the wall street journal that comey gave classified memos in two of those memos to this professor at Columbia Law School and we always have reporting here from cnn that part of what this ig investigation is going to look into is the additional people he may have also shown those memos beyond those he has already spoken of, which is his professor as well as the fbi investigators who are involved in Robert Muellers probe. And then of course the lawmakers who have seen them. But josh, i have to ask you this question because its not just comey now and his memos that are under investigation. Thats on top of this investigation into former fbi Deputy Director andrew mccabe. We also know theyre looking at texts between fbi officials lisa page and peter struck that were political in nature. What do you make of all these investigations into the fbi . Well, obviously, you know, on the surface its not a good look but one thing we have to do is step back and realize this all stemmed as part of one investigation, and looking into the actions of the fbi and obviously with respect to mr. Mccabe there was a spinoff investigation that we saw the results of that ultimately leading to his dismissal. But when the ig investigation first started it was comey asking to be investigated by the ig because he knew that with political nerves frayed they needed that independent review to look into the actions. Obviously, that unearthed a lot of what weve seen between lisa page and peter struck, which is indefensible. I think its created an incredibly terrible light for the fbi but with respect to these memos, my understanding is that this is not a new investigation looking into comeys handling of the memos but this is something that stemmed from june of 2017 whenever he was testifying before congress and first made that admission that he had provided this information. So had the ig not been looking into this, i think they should have been fired because thats their role to determine this type of handling and the last thing ill say is that i think we need to pump the brakes a little bit until the ig report comes out because right now we dont know if they are looking into the mishandling of classified information or are they looking into whether there was some kind of policy that was violated in sharing it. Lot of questions. What about the impact on the Robert Mueller investigation, if as the president implies, the beginning of this special counsel had something to do with these memos and if these memos were leaked in an illegal way or, you know, classified information was provided illegally. Is there an impact . Does it taint the investigation . Well, thats an issue, and that gives me great pause because i think what were seeing is, you know, right before our very eyes is an effort to possibly lead to the dismissal of mueller and kind of softening the ground for, well, if this thing started as the president s saying, started based on false pretenses or based on a leak, i think that would maybe give him more fodder to say, lets dispel the whole thing. Obviously thats ridiculous because of the progress of Robert Muellers investigation, what weve seen. The legal scholars will determine whether or not it was actually it began in a righteous manner but i dont think were questioning right now based on the legal documents that weve seen based on the progress that there isnt a there there as far as Robert Muellers case. Ryan, i know youve been thinking about whos right, whos wrong, especially listening to all these interviews comey has been giving as part of his book tour and you say he deserves a lot of the criticism hes getting. Well, on one big thing. I think as josh and carrie are pointing out, i think the comeys show a great deal of consistency. The story that hes told in his book, before congress, and in a number of interviews is remarkably consistent with those contemporaneous memos. That makes him a much more credible person. And i think hes handled himself in a lot of difficult situations both in the 2016 election and when he was serving under President Trump with a great deal of integrity. The what i wrote about was the one thing that i do think he deserves a great deal of criticism for is he made quite a bit of a show about how important it was for him to disclose the reopening of the clinton email investigation in 2016 while simultaneously arguing that it would have been wholly inappropriate to accede to congresss requests specifically at the time, senator harry reid, to disclose some minimal information about the investigation into russia that related to donald trump. And that, i think, is one of the criticisms of comey that i think is very fair, that he sort of opened up this pandoras box about hillary clinton, which i think was fair, as a voter, as a journalist, i think its important for us to know about the reopening of the investigation right before we go to the polls, but i think we should have known about the russia investigation as well. And if he was going to do it for one candidate, as difficult as that situation was, he should have done it for the other. Can i say just go ahead, josh. I was just going to say i think what we just heard from ryan there is the most intelligent, cogent way of handling that argument that ive seen since it came out and its so easy to say what about this case and that case, if the two arent similar, but the one thing that is interesting here from ryan is he said, there should have been some minimal type of release of information which i can see and thats going to be debated for a long time. Let me give you one different perspective on that, ana. The investigation of the Trump Organization as we understand it at that time it would have been a counterintelligence investigation and so as a lawyer who used to handle counterintelligence investigations for the Justice Department, i can see an argument that there is was a difference, at least perhaps in the directors assessment at the time, from disclosing information about an early stage or an ongoing counterintelligence investigation in which there would have been a lot of National Security equities versus the other investigation that was an issue. It was disclosed five months later, though. And at the, you know, and at the request of congress. So during that one hearing with james comey that everyone in march of 2017. And i think the big debate is going to be, you know, at the end of the day, and this is something that well have to look at, obviously, we hope nothing like this happens again but it is worth noting, at the end of the day, when you have officials from doj and the fbi, the question will be what do we value more . Was it more important for the fbi and the doj to continue this investigation and potentially stop a threat . Or was it more important for the government to say, look, the electoral process is so sacred, when you go to the ballot box, you should know theres something amiss here. Theres a huge debate. Lets not have president ial candidates who are anywhere near an fbi investigation next time. Hear, hear before thank you so much for all the thoughts. I appreciate it. Good to have you with us.

North korea says its quest for Nuclear Weapons is complete. Leader kim jongun saying today he no longer needs to test Nuclear Weapons or long range missiles and this comes just days ahead of kims meeting with south korean president and kims meeting with President Trump expected to come late may or early june. President trump is praising this move on twitter, calling it big progress. Cnns ivan watson is in seoul, south korea, with details for us. Ivan. Reporter ana, north koreas unexpected statement, its announcement that its going to suspend long range Ballistic Missile launches and Nuclear Tests and even discard its northern main Nuclear Testing facility has been widely interpreted as an olive branch just days ahead of an expected summit, the first ever between north Koreas Kim Jongun and the south korean president , moon jaein. South koreas government welcomed this, saying that its going to set a good atmosphere for the upcoming talks, not just between north and south korea but then the subsequent summit that is expected to be held between kim jongun and President Trump, though we still dont know the location or exact time of that upcoming meeting. Now, to justify the suspension of t of these tests, north korea has argued that it has already mastered its Nuclear Weapons arsenal, that it has already figured out how to miniaturize nuclear bombs, presumably to put them on the tip of an intercontinental Ballistic Missile and it no longer needs to test this kind of technology. And just think back. Its just last september that north korea carried out its sixth and most powerful Nuclear Weapons test and november of 2017 that it fired its last intercontinental Ballistic Missile. But now, north korea says it wants to focus on Economic Development and on improving relations with other countries here in the region and says it would only use its Nuclear Arsenal in selfdefense against some kind a nuclear threat, and that will be the key issue that president moon of south korea and then we expect President Trump, theyll all be asking about, finding a way to convince north korea to dismantle whats left of its Nuclear Arsenal.

New details just in to cnn about the embattled head of the epa, scott pruitt. The New York Times is now reporting that pruitt met facetoface with a washington lobbyist whose wife rented him a capitol hill condo for just 50 a night. Now this goes against earlier statements by the epa that the two men had never met. So far, the reporting is exclusive to the New York Times and we should note that the times is also reporting that the meeting was personal, had nothing to do with lobbying. Pruitt is now facing ten separate investigations into his use of taxpayer dollars and ethical violations. Members of congress are calling on pruitt to resign. His round the clock security detail apparently joined him on family trips to disneyland and College Football games. White house budget director Mick Mulvaney seas tays the white hos looking into the allegations. Congresswoman, thank you so much for being with us. First, i want to get your reaction to this new report from the New York Times accusing pruitt of meeting with a lobbyist whose wife rented pruitt that 50 a night condo. Well, ana, thank you so much for inviting me. I tell you what, unethical behavior just continues to swirl around mr. Pruitts head, and thats why i joined 169 other members of Congress Calling for his resignation. I tell you what, we can start with just his responsibilities as the chief of the epa, but it seems like hes worked overtime to really dismantle regulations that will protect the environment, give us clean air and water, and now the condo that he was renting for 50 continues to haunt him. We know that he made statements multiple times that he had not met with the lobbyist of the wife who rented him the condo but now we know that that is not true. Also he indicated that the purchase of the condo for the amount had been approved by the ethics department, but the approval was based on limited information, so yet again, mr. Pruitt did not give the entire story or quite frankly did not tell the truth. So, 170 members of congress are calling on him to resign, all democrats from what i gather. I looked at the list. Why couldnt you get any republicans to sign . Well, you know, ana, its just sad in this particular case but weve seen republicans really not do their job in other areas. We can start with passing legislation to protect the special counsel. But you know, were not going to i mean, we certainly remember why were there and were going to take the necessary steps to make sure that we hold people accountable just like members of congress should be held accountable. But i can tell you that, you know, what people say in public and private can be quite different sometimes, and there have been a couple of republicans that i personally know who have called for mr. Pruitts resignation but did not sign the resolution. Including ross as well as carbello. The white house is looking into pruitts spending. There are other investigations we mentioned. Youre not satisfied with that . No, im not. Im certainly not satisfied with the white house looking into the investigation, because quite frankly, im not sure what that means. At a time when we should be more fiscally responsible, at a time when more and more americans are working harder and it seems like getting further and further behind, mr. Pruitt purchased a soundproof phone booth for 43,000, takes a 120,000 trip to italy, has just been recklessly irresponsible in terms of his spending, and so were going to hold him accountable and we need an investigation that we can believe in. Now you are on the judiciary committee, the chairman of your committee pushed for james comeys memos to be released. Republicans are saying these memos vindicate President Trump. How do you see it . Well, i think the memos certainly did not help President Trump, and obviously, my colleagues on the other side of the aisle had no clue what was or wasnt in the memos. They took a gamble and i would say they lost because what it proved to me was that fbi director former director james comey is very credible and President Trump seems to have problems remembering what the truth looks like. Now, the president says if these memos contain classified info and were leaked that is a crime and if those memos sparked the mueller investigation, he questions whether the special counsel was based on a, quote, illegal act. Fair point . Well, the special counsel was based on russia interfering with a United States election. And i believe that every reasonable person clearly knows, by now, that russia interfered with our election. Every american should be upset by that and should want to get to the bottom of it. The unanswered question is how if the Trump Campaign was involved and particularly if the president of the United States was involved in colluding with russia, that is why the special counsel was created and we need to take every step necessary, and we know that the American People also want the special counsel to finish his work. But the fbi and the doj were already doing an investigation into russias election meddling prior to the special counsel being announced or appointed, and that did come following the firing of fbi director james comey and he himself has admitted that he leaked his memos out to this columbia law professor to share with the New York Times in the hopes that it would spark a special counsel investigation. Well, the designation of classified versus unclassified was done after the fact. And you know, i think, you know, the special counsel, the department of justice, the fbi, they will look at any potential violations of maybe doj or fbi policy, but i think we should be laser focused on getting to the bottom of the work that the special counsel is doing and to see just how deeply ingrained russias interference was and who participated in that. Congressman val demings, i appreciate your time. Thank you so much for joining us. Thank you. Have you seen what senator ted cruz just wrote about President Trump . Despite their history of bad blood, cruz has glowing things to say in time magazine.

While wealthy celebrities announced that they would flee the country, he fought to bring back jobs and industries to our shores.

Some of the details that we found here certainly may not be suitable for young viewers. Federal prosecutors indicting Actress Allison Mack on sex trafficking charges friday. The actress best known for her role on smallville is accused of recruiting women under false pretenses to perform sexual acts for keith reniere. The sole male member of a group. Shes done harm to many people. Imagine having your initials burned into a womans body. Thats happened. Reporter reniere has also been indicted on sex trafficking charges. They claim many slaves were branded on their pelvic areas with his initials. Mack and rooern have pleaded not guilty. On its website, they purport to be a selfhelp program. In a statement, they defended their founder, were currently working with the authorities to demonstrate his innocence and true character. We strongly believe the Justice System will prevail in bringing the truth to light. If convicted, both mack and reniere face at least 15 years in prison. And already two unnamed women have come forward accusing mack of either directly or implicitly forcing them to engage in sexual relations with raniere. This is a man who again is a codefendant in this case and in the group, he was often described or at least his name would be vanguard.
