A sign of the end of his young empire. There are screams about the force parallels about watergate and trumps russian roulette. Michael flynns graceless rest is nation and andy puzders labor pains dont point to a stellar week. But just because people hate him doesnt mean unrelated events all lead to a dramatic ending in a john grisham novel. The parallels to watergate are eastwardy. I have to say. Are eerie, i have to say. You couldnt deliver your gal the siespolitical layup in history. They have dug up dan rather and poked him with a stick and he had this to say. On a 10 scale of arm getten from our form of god, i would put watergate at a 9. This russia scandal is around a 5 or 6. But its cascading in intensity seemingly by the hour. There are more nefarious concrete connections made between main street and russia. Why and how someone in the Intelligence Community decided to leak information instead of going through proper channels. Kennedy i told you i trust no one in the administration and now i add media licks. Im kennedy. After all the parallels to the nixon white house, dan henin ever wrote in an ope an oped pd in the journal. Is this trumps watergate . Are we that close to watergate . Arent we putting the cart 15 miles ahead of the horse . I would say so. The democrats are throwing the i word. We are a throng way with impeachment. But its back watergatelike atmosphere. Anyone around during the time of watergate remember there was story after story in the newspapers, all sourced to deep throat, Anonymous Sources. This caused a lot of other Anonymous Sources to talk to the press. It creates a crazy political atmosphere. All of these anonymous stories. You could have spent all day wednesday reading stories that are grimly exhilarating about dissention and the Intelligence Community being upset. 90 of it are sourced to people with no names. I think it has a negative effect on the president and what hes trying to accomplish. Kennedy i think you can argue it was watergate that ushered in the modern political age. The difference is, you had to wait until the morning for the Washington Post. But now news is constant on social media. So there is a what rang of information, and there is a barrage of information. You say its not necessarily a scandal thats going to bring him down or the facts of a scandal. But that the presint has what you called an understaffed and dangerously diffused white house. Is it understaffed because its obstructionism or because of mayor nowa over leaks . Part of it is obstructionism. The democrats have been slow walking the confirmation of his nominees. We have no undersecretaries, none of them have been confirmed yet. This is a white house operating on a short set of people who have authority to speak for the president. And you end up with the president having to take the spears and arrows for everything that happens. I dont think you want to be in a situation where the president himself is the focal point of all of this negative incoming. Kennedy the president did make himself the focal point today during the unpress debited press conference. This unprecedented press conference. Was this a way of distracting from Michael Flynn and andy buz andy puzder and a couple of losses. Maybe thats what he has to do. Decompress the tension between him and the press. Doing this sort of thing would help with that. But thats not going to make these questions go away. Somehow that is going to have to be resolved. You made a good point out it being different om 1974 when the Washington Post showed up on your steps in the morning. Why are we talking about dan rather . Dan rather raises watergate. Social media sends it out. Within hours we are reading stories on the web saying what did President Trump know and when did he know it. Its an entirely different environment. To think donald trump can take on all the forces, all the social media inside the bureaucracy, inside washington, is almost a little bit too much to expect of one person. Kennedy when you talk about the Intelligence Community, clearly there is a rift there. Both side openly admit that. Not to mention people in his own party who never got on board. So it will and curious political feat. So i honestly think he does that by improving the economy. We are talking about politic. But he has a terrific agenda. A big tax reform bill. Regulatory reform. Infrastructure bill. All of these things have to move forward into the congress, go into the committees, there will be politicking. Everyone will have a say about the final outcome of that. Thesident need a lot of Political Capital to bring that agenda across the goal line. Unless he lift the economy, just as he suggests over the course of this year, his presidency will be in trouble. That is much more important than fighting with the media or Intelligence Community. Kennedy lets go to our radioactive party panel. Meghan mccain is here, she is the cohost on outnumbered. Its comedian dave smith and reason. Com editor. Must sh see tv at at highest order that all the comedy writers at snl could lampoon. He made the media look like. Bunch of bow zoas. Excuse me. When did it happen . Where are you from . Bbc. There is another beauty. He said he would ask a simple, easy question, and its not. Kennedy will this battle with the media continue . Who is going to come out on top . Megyn, i will start with you. How can he get the media back and does this sort of joyful confrontation help him in that quest . Hes living out every fantasy i ever had about screaming at a journalist who said something nasty about me or my family. I think his base loves it. We were talking during the break before we came out saying im fine with the combativeness with the press. But he you are talking about how you won by a larger margin than Ronald Reagan and its inaccurate. I have a problem with that. Kennedy you see the press should be the opposition party. This is the job of the press. Before it seems as though they are selective on their opposition depending on who is in the white house. Absolutely. The freebie con put out a piece on the softball questions direct at barack obama. The press should keep them honest and keep them on their toes. President trump will probably do terrible things with freedom of the press. But being rude to people at a press conference is low on the came of outrage. Kennedy lets look at the president addressing media dishonesty. The press has become so dishonest that if we dont talk about it, we are doing a tremendous disservice to the american people. Tremendous disservice. We have to talk about it, to find out whats going on. The press is out of control. The level of dnesty is out of control. Kennedy should he stop talking to the press all together . I think that color in back of him does not work with Donald Trumps hair. Nobody has ever run a more antimedia campaign and won. He ran on the media are the most dishonest people. So its surprising, and to be fair, i am no trump supporter, but they are the most dishonest people on the planet oh im enjoying this. Kennedy in light of the week that hes had and all of the news in this watergate Critical Mass the left is trying to drum up. Whether he answers their question does nothing. Its not like the press illuminates the important issues of our time. To take questions from a progressive journalist, then we would Start Talking about the longest wars in american history. Kennedy President Trump would bore people to death. He would go on a 17minute yarn. At least hes got a problem with the facts often times and he backs himself into a corner. He was asked directly. 5 totally would have. Hes all over the place. He said Something LikeNuclear Holocaust would be like nothing else. Not more substantive information comes out of any press conference than that. Kennedy weve almost dont have the context for it. We almost dont have enough space in between the inauguration and what happened today to really figure out what this is going to be like Going Forward and if this is going to be normal. As you are watching it, its like the first time i saw pulp fiction. I never had seen anything like that. It many a new era for press conferences. I think this is the chickens coming home to roost with the press. They have gone the away with a lot for a long time. I could go down a list of coverage they have did with republican candidates and how they covered obama. The press on my dads health when he was running for president , was he was on life support and was going to die. But when Hillary Clinton fainted they are saying its out of bounds. So when the American Public sees blatant examples. That one i remembered because it had to do with my father dying. When the American Public sees this, i dont trust the mainstream media. People like us, you know when you to washington, d. C. And its off the record. You see how they talk and see how much they love obama, and i think the American Public has finally caught up to it. Kennedy i think there is very little difference between some of that bias coverage and members of Hillary Clintons former campaign staff. And it came out cnn had their questions leaked to Hillary Clinton. This should have been such a big scandal. You would think if cnn wasnt fake news their reaction would have of been some profound we dropped the bill. So would be we like Donna Brazile and she is moving on. Kennedy donald trump is having a rally in florida this weekend. Press reports say intelligence officials are with polling information from the white housa mole in the white house.

Kennedy there is a shocking new report from the wall street journal saying that intelligence officials are withholding information from the president because they are afraid it could end up in the kremlin. According to the director of the office of National Intelligence quote, any suggestion the Intelligence Community is not no riding the best possible intelligence to the president and his National Security team is not true. Buck were welcome back. You actually know how this stuff happens. How is the president traditionally briefed . I wrote for the president s daily brief. Kennedy which is the gold standard. Thats mr. President here is everything you have need to know to be the leader of the free world this morning. I used to write that and presented it two times to president bush. There are a lot of different hands involved in this and people are presenting the president with the most important and insightful analysis that they possibly can. The idea that people would with hold any intelligence from the president , its a, its an anat. Its almost impossible to disprove. Because a couple of rogue elements within the Intelligence Community. I keep saying yes there are a few individuals or group. But this is have very small contingent. Kennedy as Hillary Clinton points out, there are 17 intelligence agencies. Who is the editor . You get all the information from the cia. The nsa. And house the person that breaks everything down to give to the president . Final say so is the dni. Director National Intelligence. It wasnt even suppose to be an agency. It was suppose to be the coordinator within the agency. Once you give a bureaucrat room they build up a bigger role for themselves. Kennedy what role was flynn playing in gathering that information and gichght to the president. Its really hard to know whats true and whats not about the disarray within the nfc, all those news reports saying im not there anymore. A lot of this is based on leaks. Also having sharp elbows and being rejected from his role in d. I. A. Kennedy under president obama. The intelligence presented. People would be sphrietds know. The president says im a visual i am a visual learner. I would like more maps. A president may have said that. Inch. Kennedy everyone lerns and after he simulates information differently. Kennedy steve bannon with a new National Security advisor coming in, about bannon have his permanent role on the nfc taken away . I dont think hes going anywhere. Kennedy thanks so much. Buck sexton.

Kennedy Donald Trumps new secretary of labor pick is alex acosta. No relation to the acosta from cnn. Ecnn. He has a slaw degree from harvard slaw school pap great student. Former clerk for injuries is samuel alito. And he has had a tremendous career. Kennedy that sounds pretty good. But what does the labor secretary do . For that we turn to Brian Brenberg associate proaf fessor economics at Kings College in new york city. I looked at what the labor secretary is suppose t do, mediate labor disputes . No. Create new regulations . No, not necessary. We dont need a labor secretary. I think a lot of skeptics will say if you want to improve the condition of workers in this country, grow the economy. When they have the opportunity to take other jobs, you will see wages rise and conditions get better. We should be sceptical about what the Labor Department does, period. I dont think it is going to go away so we should talk about what the labor secretary can do. Kennedy now we have alex an determine acosta to look forward to. But hes got a legal background. This guy is a lawyer who held a lot of governmental jobs. How could that be good for a labor secretary. I think its a shame that we lost someone with puzders background. He understands the fundamental die maam knick our country. Technical automation is moving people out of jobs. So he understands why the minimum wage is pushing people out of jobs because it causes employers to automate. My concern about acomes a, he doesnt bring that background. Will he be able to shake you have the labor depth the way we need it shaken up . Hes a technocrat. We dont need more bureaucrats. Kennedy people who dont have background in politics get consumed by the bureaucracies they run. If you dont have a passion for business, i worry that wont be his guiding light. The Labor Department has 17,000 employees and a 12 billion budget its a regulation factory. That makes thing so hard for businesses. Puzder had the opportunity to blow it up fan free things up for businesses and workers. Acosta brings a lawyers background. In four years will weve see of any real difference . Or will it still be a regulatory factory . If it is, thats bad for workers. I hope the president isnt just aiming for an easy confirmation here. I hope hes looking to make change to the the department. Kennedy this isnt the one nominee they thought would get turfed. You would think with betsy devos, that she was going to be the sacrificial cabinet lamb. Puzder was a free market voice in the administration, and more important, free trade. Thats whats looking there. I was optimistic about puzder. I dont know what kinds of noise hes going toll have there. Thats another bad for the administration. Im Holding Better things on him. But he doesnt have the same profile puzder had and i think thats a shame. Kennedy i think he already disappointed you. This one is not as exciting as the puzder one was. Kennedy we have to hope the lack of regulations will create the right environment. I wish him well and he hope that he could. Kennedy the panel returns in just a bit. Hell just froze over base completely agree with lena dunham on something she said. Fan it involves taylor swift. When you have 7. 95 online u. S.

First rally since his inauguration will be held in florida this saturday. Ad for the event reads. We are going to put america back to work. We are going to put people before government. Is this a good oldfashioned rally to divert attention from some of the disasters in the white house this week . Or is he campaigning for 2020. Megyn, you cover this every day on outnumbered. You have to look at this and say do we need a rally right now . I think his supporters will love it. They will cheer the make America Great again flag. I didnt like it when obama did the. I think the time for campaigning is during election season its been four weeks almost since he habeen elected its not the advice i would give him. But he hasnt listened to anything i have said so far. Kennedy you had one of the best lines when you said he was the best president elect. I wish he could have bent best president elect forever. Its the same thing that happened with obama. Im good at whipping people. You and chanting lock her up. He was doing a thank you tour a week and a half ago. He hasnt taken a break. Kennedy there was Something Different about it. Every cycle of the Campaign Starts earlier. He is already going into the next campaign. 9 adulation with the big rallies was always the jewels for trump. Ultimately he liked winning. The job is boring. The job is gruesome. It involves a lot of handshake which he hates. It involves a lot of hosting which he hates. It ages you when he does it. Obama and bush were healthy people. Kennedy he already on sleeps 3 or 4 hours a night. You go into the oval office. One person who will more than likely be and isnt from saturday many rally is lena dunham. In a recent interview with Rolling Stone she was questioned on what if any effect she had on Hillary Clintons convention. Hillary lost because lena dunham is such a bad example of liberalism. Dunham said everyone has to do it their way. Should dunham take a page out of taylors book . Megyn, you and i can talk about girls. The show is well acted. It makes me happy to be conservative and it make me happy that im in a monogamous relationship. Its a good example why being conservative is good for millennials. Im 32 and i definitely watch the show. She says everyone has to do it their own way. Lena could you start doing it another way . Your way is terrible. Kennedy is there any worth to lena dunn happens political upon iifications . Sure. You have got a right to express yourself. Some of her own allies said that with the ridiculous i wish i had an abortion because i would be. Better advocate. No matter what your position on reproductive rights. Hillary clinton sending lena dunham to campaign in North Carolina while keeping bill clinton on the sidelines has some merit. Kennedy when the lead kept going back and forth by a point. Also joe biden who could have been one of the most effective people was kept off the stage. She was hysterically crying on election tonight. Now, you know what it feels like to be a conservative when the iran deal went through. Kennedy every day, he elect on every level. I dont understany someone elected a candate i dont like we lose he second.

The president is considering another manned missing out of earths orbit. Is that what the space agency should be focusing on . Let me welcome back theoretical physicist dr. Michio kaku. Im going to defer to you. Lets say this is the most excited administration about Space Exploration that we have seen in decades. Where should we put our resources. Nasa has been criticized as being the agency to nowhere. It boldly goes where everyone has gone before. Here comes donald trump. He wants to fast track the moon and mars program. If we are going to the moon anyway by 2021. Why not go in his first term and in his potential second term, on to mars. Kennedy i took a class in college, science and technology. Should we go for things that are interesting or go for things that are important . I think we should do both. Look at the Space Program. All the electronics we see around us. The microchips werent lasers, the internet, its because of the Space Program that made possible microchips, made possible the internet, satellite telecommunications. Kenned the private sector, thats really where the innovation is, especially when there is a market thats asking enforce these solutions. Thats right. Look at elon musk. He comes in from nowhere and injects energy, vitality and vision. He wants to go to mars by 2024. Kennedy if you were to sit down with the president and he asked, what do we need to spends our money on, what would you tell him . I would go to the stars. We looked at the numbers. We have a bank of laser beams that carry a small pry crow chip to near the speed light. And we reach the nearest stars in 20 years. Thats doable in todays technology. It wont be the enterprise, it will be a chip this big. But you have to start somewhere. Kennedy scientists invented a way to pull human becomes behind a boat. A boat.

There is a turtle on the side waiting for shia in his dressing room. In the back of the book segment, the dogs are better than cat files. Dogs are human like. And some are so peopley they dont even bark. They scream. Cody . Ahhhhh. Kennedy i think i heard that scream somewhere before. Topic number 5. Grab your top hat. As unwanted as a hobo drifter that wanders into a stately gala and french kisses the host. This is viewer mail. Dottie says this woman sucks, really. I tried to like her. I just cant.
