Campaign and the russians. Chief intelligence correspondent Catherine Herridge is at the Justice Department tonight with details. Good evening, catherine. Well, thank you, mike. The News Conference here at main justice was called with just 45 minutes notice. The indictment is powerful new evidence of a russian plot but does not name any american coconspirators. The defendants allegedly conducted what they called Information Warfare against the United States. With direct oversight of the Russia Special counsel probe Rod Rosenstein said 13 russian nationals and three russian organizations were charged with, quote conspiracy to defraud the United States. And illegally using social media to divide americans and disrupt a 2016 president ial election. Russian con spiritters want to promote discord in the United States and undermine Public Confidence and democracy. As early as 2014. 37page indictment alleges the russian defendants, including a businessman with deep ties to russian president Vladimir Putin and their coconspirators began planning from base in russia. The indictment says quote by early to mid 2016 defendants operations included supporting the president ial campaign of then candidate donald j. Trump and disparaging hillary clinton. The defendants bought server space in the u. S. To create a Virtual Private Network hide russian roots. Used stolen or fictitious american identities. Fraudulent Bank Accounts and false identification documents. The defendants posed as politically and socially active americans advocating for and against particular candidates. Katherine indictment alleges contact with members supporters of the Trump Campaign. They were unnamed in the charge sheet. The Deputy Attorney general was asked if Campaign Officials were duped. There is no allegation in this indictment that any american was a knowing participant in this illegal activity. There is no allegation in the indictment that the charged conduct altered the outcome of the 2016 election. The russian operatives allegedly sought to hurt the candidacy of trumps challengers including ted cruz and marco rubio and the allegedly aimed to bolster Hillary Clintons challenger bernie sanders. After the election, special counsel investigators found russian operatives played both sides. For example, the defendants organized one rally to support the president elect and another rally oppose him. Both in new york on the same day. Asked by fox news whether the russian government would cooperate in any future prosecution. Have you had any assure arnses from the russians that they will provide these individuals for prosecution . There has been no communication with the russians about this. We will follow the ordinary process of seeking cooperation and extradition. Also today a california man pled guilty to selling Bank Account Numbers to nationals outside of the United States. Between 2014 and 2017. Spokesman for the special counsel said they had no evidence the man was a knowing or whiting participant in the russian plot. Mike . Mike Catherine Herridge at the Justice Department tonight, catherine, thank you very much. Youre welcome. Mike claiming vindication again in the wake of the indictments. Kevin corke is outside the president s florida compound tonight. Good evening, kevin. Good evening there, michael. This has been a very interesting day. We have been watching all the developments as can you well imagine. Not just based on what we saw from Rod Rosenstein but also what we remember the president had to say about the russia investigation oh not too terribly long ago. Do you feel convinced indicated, mr. President . While the president did not respond to southed questions on camera this afternoon, about the revelations that more than a dozen russian operatives were engaged in an effort to interfere with the 2016 elections, did he take to twitter to weigh in. Russia started appear at this americaantiu. S. Campaign ie i announced that i would run poor if the. The results of the election were not impacted. Tramp campaign did nothing wrong, no collusion. Nothing in todays indictment indicated any americans knowingly took part in the russian scheme. Sarah huckabee sanders, the White House Press secretary, issued a statement. It read, in part president donald j. Trump has been fully briefed on this matter and is glad to he soot special counsels investigation further indicate that there was no collusion between the Trump Campaign and russia and that the outcome of the election was not changed or affected. Previously mr. Trump called the investigation a witchhunt. Even tweeted once that it was a, quote hoax, but tonight there is proof that there was an effort to russians in our election. Even so far there has been no proof that anyone involved in the Trump Campaign had anything to do with it major changes how the white house will handle security clearance investigations in the future. We learned about this today. Its a five page document, and it basically lays out the overhall in this way follow up on ongoing investigations. We are told that don mcgahn the white house chief counsel also helped to write this overhaul alongside john kelly. Again, this is a bit of a fallout from the rob porter circumstance. Of course the former White House Press secretary who, of course, was fired not terribly long ago, mike. Mike no question about that. Kevin corke live in west palm beach, florida. Many thanks. Stunning admission the fbi admitting it mishandled a tip about 19yearold nikolas cruz. Admitted to murdering 17 people at a high school earlier this week. Someone warned the bureau last month about what was going to happen wednesday afternoon. Tip from the public about cruz that failed to prevent the massacre that revelation comes as the funerals begin for some of the victims. Correspondent phil keating is at the shooting scene in parkland, florida. Casino, phil. Good evening, mike. Warning flags were flying high and flying for a very long time. Specifically about the 1yearold former student of stone man Douglas High School behind me now accused of 17 counts of first degree murder. Just about an hour ago, Broward County sheriff said over the past few years his office received 20 calls for service, specifically about cruz and his behavior at the time. He says such calls for future in the future will now be far more well scrutinized . Also at the fbi and Justice Department today a stunning public admission . Two. Days after the Worst High School shooting in u. S. History massacre fbi warned could happen the agency now admits it failed to properly handle a january 5th tip from a person to cruz about gun ownership and alleged desire to kill people. Specifically to carry out a School Shooting forward up potential life to the field office. It was not. Five weeks later 17 students and teachers are dead. On behalf of myself and over 1,000 employee he is of the miami field office, we truly regret any additional pain that this has caused. In an equally rare slap from the attorney general to his fbi. Jeff sessions released a highly critical admonition, quote it is now clear that the warning signs were there and tips to the fbi were missed. We see the tragic consequences of those failures. And Florida Governor rick scott taking the outrage even further, quote fbis failure to take action against this killer is unacceptable. 17 innocent people are dead and acknowledging a mistake isnt going to cut it. The fbi director needs to resign. In september the fbi was able to source same name as the suspect writing im going to be a professional school shooter. And Broward County sheriff now clarifying brought with him. The cirltd never was in possession of a gas mask or any type of smoke grenades. Former student expelled last year for disciplinary reasons. 19yearold nikolas cruz remains held without bond. Hes remorseful. He is fully aware of what is going on. And hes just a broken human being. [chanting] emotions and politics continue to dominate this affluent community while across the Country Schools and police are dealing with copycat threats. Most have been social media hoaxes. The devastation caused by the shooting for the Community Led several thousand people to gather today thursday night at the parkland amphitheater for emotional candlelight vigil this student lost a close friend. I think he would appreciate what were doing. And i think that people would want to remember in a positive way. And just out tonight by the florida sun sentinel quoting Nikolas Cruzs public defender, cruz is now agreeing to plead guilty to first degree murder. 17 counts of that for killing 14 students, a teacher, a High School Football coach, and an athletic director. All in exchange for avoiding the Death Penalty and also the freshman building, the threestory structure on campus where all of the killings happened will now be demolished so that none of the surviving students and teachers will ever have to walk past those classrooms of carnage again. Mike . Mike phil keating live in park land, florida after a heart breaking week there. Phil, thank you very much. Lets get some analysis now from George WashingtonUniversity Law professor jonathan turley. Good evening, sir. Thanks, mike. Mike lets start with the indictments. Was that a warning shot fired by the u. S. Government at moscow . Well, it was quite a shot. I dont know if it was warning or below the water line. Its clearly, if you read between the lines, its clearly saying this was a russian government operation. It is spontaneously happen that you have dozens of people involved in a hacking operation with elaborate disguisings of their groups, their identified at this. It is suggesting that i think this is a government operation. Now, that points to Vladimir Putin. Whats interesting is that it doesnt really point to donald trump. Despite the dozens of pages, there is one word that is likely to be cited in this whole story. And that is unwitting. The adjective unwitting appears in the indictment to describe Trump Officials who had contact with these russians. They say they didnt know they were russians. But whats fascinating is it doesnt suggest that they have evidence of collusion. And this was brought out by rofn stein. Mike actually, we have that sound bite. Lets go to it if we can. There is no allegation in this indictment that any american was a knowing participant in this illegal activity. There is no allegation in the indictment that the charged conduct altered the outcome of the 2016 election. Mike so your analysis of that point . You know, thats whats fascinating. Its been a year with multiple plea agreements. A lot of testimony. A lot of interviews. And they are saying that they still dont have any evidence of any knowing engagement with the russians involved in this effort. That has to be good news to the trump white house. Its also notable that meeting in trump towers are mentioned. They knew those were russians. But if they were part of this effort, there would be some reference. There their identity was clear. Also that is not mentioned. Mike is some of this basically saying to the folks behind us on capitol hill and around the country that want some answers about this and want some action taken about what happened to our election in 2016 that serious people are on the case and taking steps to address this . I think it does. Truth comes out of this. Everyone throwing around and conspiracies. 2014. Began before the president ial election. The russians were taking targets of opportunity. They were shooting at everybody nut elections. Certainly working more against hillary clinton. But what it does show is that they did a really quite impressive job in finding the cyber trail to these individuals. Mike right. This is not over. These are individuals that are going to have Serious Problems because they have been tagged. Mike lets switch gears to the devastating story, park land, florida, the fbi says it got a warning, dropped the ball. Your reaction to that . You know, i dont agree with Governor Scott that director wray should resign. I dont think that thats in any way responsive. There is no indication that he had a direct involvement in this. We need people to find out the truth to this. It is a serious problem. You cant tell people see something, Say Something if the next line is do nothing. You know, it really undermines what the fbi has been working for years to try to get people to do. So, there has to be accountability here and explanation. When you read the level of detail that was given to the fbi, its breathtaking that anyone on the other side of that phone wouldnt go oh my god and immediately start to rally people to get on this. It sounds like it went into a drawer and left there. Mike here is an explanation from the fbi. Take a listen. The caller provided information about nikolas cruz, the potential of him becoming a school shooter. Under normal protocol. This information should have been provided to the miami field office. Their investigative steps would have been taken. The fbi had determined that protocol was not followed. Mike you have been around this town a long time. Should somebody go for this . Quite frankly i think somebody should be fired for this if not wray we have to find out who was responsible. The fbi has been accuse you had not sharing information in the past with local authorities. Thats a big gripe that you hear from a lot of prosecutors, investigators. This one is far, far more serious. Nobody receiving that information could just view this as one more call about some, you know, some kid saying stupid things. This was detailed and this was elm inciden imminent. Mike thanks for time and analysis. The senate has gone home after failing to get anything accomplished on immigration. Now its the houses turn. There are two types of people in the world. Those who fear the future. And those who embrace it. The future is for the unafraid. The fuwhen you have a cold,aid. Stuff happens. [ dog groans ] [ coughs and sneezes ] nothing relieves more symptoms than alka seltzer plus maximum strength liquid gels. Its ok that everyone ignores its fine. Drive. Because i get a safe driving bonus check every six months im accident free. And i dont share it with mom right, mom . Righttt. Safe driving bonus checks. Only from allstate. Switching to allstate is worth it. Mike mitt romney is running for the u. S. Senate seat in utah. Former Massachusetts Governor who ran against and lost to president obama in 2012 is already being called a carpet bagger. Correspondent alicia acuna responds from still appear to be the favorite in the senate race. Is he running to fill retired senator orrin hatchs rink. Standing on ice rink reminiscent to bring the 2002 salt lake Winter Olympics out from scandal and in his video announcement, he took a couple shots. Utah welcomes legal immigrants from around the world. Washington sends immigrants a message of exclusion. And on utahs capitol hill, people treat one another with respect. I have decided to run for United States senate because i believe i can help bring utahs values and utahs lessons to washington. Former president ial nominee polls extremely well in utah. His family has been a part of the state for generations. Romneys former Vice President ial running mate Speaker Paul Ryan quickly signaled his support releasing a statement reading in part, quote our party and our country are always better off when mitt is engaged and i know he will put his unparalleled experience, conservative leadership and lifetime of service to work for utah. The democratic candidate released a video highlighting romneys life outside utah. Jenny wilson says she relates to the voters who want to change washington. When you see the trump voter step up saying enough is enough, i can relate to that. We dont want government to be so far away from us. So removed from our community. Mitt romney represents more of that. The Democratic National committee jumped in, too, with a statement in part reading while mitt romney desperately wants to separate himself from the extremism of the current administration, the basic policies of trumps g. O. P. , whether its tax cuts for the rich or reversing the progress of the aca, were his before they were donald trumps. Important to remember, should he win, mitt romney wont be your average freshman senator as one utah political reporter put it, he walks in with a very large microphone. Mike . Mike alicia acuna on attempted political come back by mitt romney. New account of affairs by Businessman Donald Trump going back several years. Mr. Trump had a sexual relationship with a former playboy playmate of the year after meeting her in 2006, not long after his marriage to his current wife melania. The story also alleges encounters with other women. A white house spokesperson told the magazine the story is fake news and the president denies the relationship with the former playmate. President trump is blaming democrats for the failure so far of efforts to come up with immigration legislation that addresses the fate of the socalled dreamers. Correspondent peter doocy tells us where things stand right now. Hello, peter. Hi, mike, now it is the houses turn to tackle immigration. The most buzz is linked to you a package authored by republican congressman Bob Goodlatte which addresses border security, chain migration and the visa lottery. It does not include a pathway to citizenship for dreamers. We took a whip check. The whip check was positive and were now working on the people who whipped back that they were undecided to make sure that we have the necessary support and were prepared it make more tweaks to the bill if necessary. Now that senators have returned home from recess without a fix, cannot believe how badly Daca Recipients have been treated by the democrats. Totally abandoned. Republicans are still working hard. That tweet got a response from the democratic whip senator dick durbin who says this in part, quote. Give me a break. You killed daca and now rejected six bipartisan deals to protect dreamers. Identifiable fighting for dreamers for 17 years and will never abandon them. And across the capital in the House Democratic congressman congressman is now warning now because trump sabotaged the process of the bipartisan legislation, well continue to see this crisis worsen as dreamers continue to lose their jobs and others are detained and deported. It does appear the march 5th deadline President TrumpGave Congress to fix daca may be moving back while the administration fights with federal judges who say the president cant cancel the program. And some lawmakers think their colleagues welcome the delay. The bottom line is, this also tell me that maybe whats going on here behind the scenes, they dont want to solve it democrats, republicans. They want to keep it alive as a campaign issue. Socalled sweet spot on immigration according to republican senator john thune could be a stripped down deal that just addresses the two big ticket items, daca and border security. But there is no deal like that yet. Mike . Mike our peter doocy after immigration week in the United States senate. Peter, many thanks. Stocks were mixed. The dow gained 19. The s p 500 was up one. Nasdaq lost 17. For the week, the dow and the s p 500 both gained more than 4 Percentage Points and nasdaq rose more than 5 for the indexs best weekly gain since 2011. Secretary of state Rex Tillerson did his best today to put the u. S. Relationship with turkey back on track. The nato allies have been sniping at each other for some time. It appears they have now cleared the air. Correspondent rich he had rich n has the latest from the state department tonight. Rex tillerson after several hours of meetings with tuckerys president and foreign minister says the two countries have agreed to work through their differences. That issue, United States support of Kurdish Forces in syria. The u. S. Partners with them to fight isis. Turkey claims theyre terrorists and last month launched an offensive against them. The u. S. And turkey say they are establishing a working group to address these issues. We find ourselves at a bit of a crisis point in the relationship. The relationship is too important. Its too valuable to nato and our nato allies. Its too valuable to the American People. Its too valuable to the turkish people for us to not do anything other than concentrate on how are we Going Forward . There are differences beyond syria. Turkey wants the United States to extradite a pennsylvaniabased cleric it holds responsible for a coo attempt in 2016. The u. S. Objects to growing authoritarianism within turkey just this morning a Turkish Court sent his sixth journalist to life in prison in connection with that 2016 200 cu2000coo attempt. Governmental to south florida for shooting investigation. And remember some of the victims. S. But do you take something for your brain. With an ingredient originally found in jellyfish, prevagen is the number one selling brainhealth supplement in drug stores nationwide. Prevagen. The name to remember. Money managers are pretty much the same. All but while some push High Commission investment products, Fisher Investments avoids them. Some advisers have hidden and layered fees. Fisher investments never does. And while some advisers are happy to earn commissions from you whether you do well or not, Fisher Investments fees are structured so we do better when you do better. Maybe thats why most of our clients come from other money managers. Fisher investments. Clearly better money management. Mike our top story at the bottom of the hour, the fbi admits it failed to follow up on a tip last month that Florida High School shooter nikolas cruz was planning an attack. The Justice Department says this is launching an investigation. Florida republican governor rick scott calling on fbi director Christopher Wray to resign. The first funerals for the victim is today. Tonight were learning more about some of them Senior CorrespondentRick Leventhal is at pompe pompano. Mourners gather to remember and bury some of the first victims. Alyssa ahladeff 14 years old. Student and soccer player. A bright life lost forever. So smart, beautiful. Creative always wants to go to the next event, next activity. She loved everybody, trusted everybody. She was an amazing soccer player. Lets continue to pray every day, every night. Thursday night thousands gathered for a vigil near the high school. Holding candles and signs. Many openly sobbing as the names of the victims were read. Speakers included the father of 14yearold jamie guttenberg. Jamie was such a special kid. All of the kids here are. What is unfathomable is jaime took a bullet and is dead. I dont know what i do next. My wife is home. We are broken. Freshman Haley Betancourt who heard the gunfire wednesday spoke to march than maccallum after the vigil. I was crying the whole time but it was really hard to take in because you hear your friends names and then i lost 8 friends. Three of the dead were teachers or coaches, including aaron feis who worked with the Football Team and as a security guard. Being remembered as a hero for using his body to shield students from the bullets. Its actually really hard to talk about coach right now. The hardest part will be driving through the front gates and not seeing coach feis sitting there, giving me a thumbs up or making me stop to roll the window down and saying that, you know, he cares about me or have a good day at school or get my stuff done because im a knuckle head or Something Like that. Meanwhile at this very moment, mike, the president s motorcade is arriving here at Broward Health north medical center.

Again, the president arriving here at Broward Health at this moment to meet with doctors and other medical healthcare professionals. Mike . Mike rick, many thanks. In tonights whatever happened to segment federal Government Property not being used but costing taxpayers billions of dollars. Special report viewer josh banks asked whatever happened to the 32,000 vacant government buildings just sitting empty . Tonight correspondent Doug Mckelway has some answers. You cant get your job done. Have you 124 properties out of 14,000 properties. This is one property that i dont care if its republican or a Democrat Administration if its this administration or previous administrations the job is not getting done. Almost six years ago republican congressman jeff denim brought a General ServicesAdministration Official into this vacant musty old government building in prime Washington Real Estate and secured him over delays in selling it and as many as 77,000 other vacant or under utilized Government Properties across the country. One example on how washington ungoverned by Market Forces boggs down initiative and swallows in this case 2 billion of taxpayer money. The explanation is complex. The government lacks reliable data to measure how many used buildings it owns. Costly environmental requirements. Competing stake holder interests. Limited aaaccessability of some and complex disposable. Saint elizabeths build before the civil war called a hospital for the insane. There are over 60 buildings here, most of them unoccupied on 180 acres and very easy to see why its so difficult to sell them. The occupying federal agency has to offer it to another federal agency. And if they are not interested. It then has to be offered to a homeless organization. If they are not interested. It must be offered to a State Government or to a local government and if they are not interested, it then goes on the market. A process which can take several years. And a lot of our portfolio is 40, 50 years old. To try to make it more attractive to a private buyer or do you just sit and maintain it . Jeff denim, that angry congressman from six years ago is less angry now. Pass hr 4465 as amended. In 2016 Congress Passed federal asset sale and transit act that expedites the sale of unused federal properties. Congress still needs to confirm out seven person board that will oversee the sales. We want to see this new board put in place so we get rid of all of these different delays from different Agencies Holding up the sale of these properties. If its sitting vacant and unutilized then lets sell them immediately. Under fafsta 300000 federal assets including unused properties. First step in draining this particular swamp.

Introducing the mahindra retriever. Grand jury and the District Of Columbia today returned an indictment presented by the special counsels office. The indictment charges 13 russian nationals and three Russian Companies for committing federal crimes while seeking to interfere in the United States political system including the 2016 president ial election. With the stated goal of spreading distrust towards the candidates and the political system in general. Now, there is no allegation in this indictment that any american was a knowing participant in this illegal activity. There is no allegation in the indictment that the charged conduct altered the outcome of the 2016 election. A rocking news day here in washington on a friday. Lets bring in our panel byron york chief Political Correspondent of the washington examiner. Marie harf a former spokesperson at the state department. Matt schlapp contributor at the hill. Gentlemen, lady, good evening. Hello. Mike your reaction to what you heard there, these dimes today. Its rather shocking. Everything about it is shocking. Its shocking to seat Deputy Attorney general to me making that announcement. It didnt come specifically from the special counsels team. It is shocking that what they are saying is that these really interesting they said these russians were spreading discord. These are serious charges but that was a strange word to t. Seemed to use. Its weird they said they have been doing it for a number of years even before this election election cycle. It didnt seem like that ingenious a plan to get on twitter and start to, you know, say bad things about hillary clinton. And other candidates and i think for a lot of republicans, they are kind of singing that song after all of this is that all there is . And if that really is all there is, the American People are going to want to move on. Mike marie, you have a diplomatic background. How surprised were you by what you heard today. I dont think thats all there is. I think its the latest round and clear bob mueller is pulling at a lot of different threads here. Really outlines for the American People the extent in this one piece of russia disinformation campaign. The American People should be concerned that they may have seen social media posts that were disinformation from russians that they may have attended rallies organized by these russians bots. I think for a lot of the people underscores the people that this is not a hoax. The russian meddling was and is real. This week you had the intelligence commanderinchiefs up on the hill saying they are still trying to do this in 2018 and 2020. It is a serious ongoing threat that needs to be treated that way by the administration. Mike another revelation today that the russians were so sneaky they were doing events for and against candidate trump. Take a listen to this. Mike after the election the defendants allegedly staged rallies to president elect while simultaneously staging rallies to protest his election. For example the defendants organized one rally to support the president elect and another rally to oppose him. Both in new york on the same day. Byron your reaction to what you heard today. I think actually what rosenstein said there supports this idea that they were there was really two fold. Disrupt our system, to sow discord and to mess with hillary clinton. Whom they thought was going to be the president. And so there were lesser targets. Bernie sanders. They wanted to support him and jill stein they wanted to support her. But, again, that was all kind of hillaryfocused just as their support of trump was. Then the unthinkable happens. Trump wins and they just begin to disrupt in a different way putting on two rallies in new york. One a protrump rally and the other is trump is not my president rally. So i think it just supports the idea that they were just messing with things the whole time,. Moscow. Kind of surprising. None of these people that extradite them i dont think. Put them on on notice and for a russian meddling a hoax, right he . Doesnt seem to accept the Intelligence Community assessment because what they need need to be doing plan to appreciate it next time. And that testimony this week from the intelligence chief 14ud be very sunny to americans. Facebook and twitter a lot of americans get their news from facebook and twitter. This is rather absurd. This is like rocky bull winkle kind of stuff. When i think of russian collusion in our elections, i am offended. I think its repulsive. Is this what it was . It was 13 guys having some rallies. There is going to be more. This isnt it. This is clearly their shot. Acting as bots. Someone might have read Facebook Post incorrect. Its repugnant. Shouldnt have happened. Obama should have stopped it same token this is not a worth a year of the countrys time over Everything Else we have deal with in this country and charges of russian collusion has clearly been ridiculous and not true. Not a surprise either. Intelligence committees known almost everything in this indictment. A lot of it has actually been reported in the press. And remember there was just a huge excitement over the facebook ads a while back with the intelligence committees. Which really added up to very, very little. Most of them ran after the election. Mike fbi got a tip about this young man that fell through the cracks. As a dad i find that particularly devastating. Your reaction to that, matt . Yeah, no, i mean, look, Law Enforcement they have a tough job. Theyre not going to catch every bad person that wants to do harm to this society. Thats not acceptable to the American People to know these were not just somebody saying something bad about a guy. Telling them chapter and verse why this guy was a threat. Mike should somebody lose their job. Somebody probably should. I dont think its one person though. This has to be a systematic look at how we go about this because we have always heard if you see something, Say Something. There are bad people out there. Go to the fbi because you trust. Take a look top to bottom how this was handled. Somebody probably should lose their job over. This cant blame it on one person. We need to take a look at this. Look at gun laws, look at mental health. All of it in the wake of Something Like this because we have to prevent this from happening again. Mike byron. For the fbi itself a lot of republicans have been very critical of the fbis handling of highly politicized investigations. The clinton email investigation, the trumprussia investigation. At the same time, praising the work that the fbi does and fighting crime around the country. And to have this horeb dust mistake happen is really bad. Mike a lot of folks behind us on capitol hill warning about the undermining the fbi. A few at the fbi undermining the agency itself. Next up, the friday lightning round.

And so taking us back to the listen to. This i have decided to run for the United States senate because i believe i can help bring utahs values and utahs lessons to washington. We dont want government to be so far away from us. So removed from our community. Mitt romney represents more of that. I think there is some people who may have run that wont based on a mitt romney candidacy. So conventional wisdom in this town mitt romney gets in. He is going to win. Is he going to win . I dont know if he is going to win. I mean, i find this all rather pathetic. He ran for president. He got trounced. A lot of people thought he was going to win. He had a good first debate. But, i think its time for governor romney from massachusetts, maybe future senator from utah to just kind of find something else. Maybe get a hobby. Play golf. Learn how to knit. Go travel. Already being hit with the carpet bagger thing. I worked on the campaign against mitt romney in 2012. I think is he a dedicated public servant. Good person. I suspect he will win. What will be interesting is what kind of candidate he is and what kind of senator he is. Especially in his relationship with President Trump. They have had this sort of on again, off again. He criticized him during the campaign in 2016. Then he was up for secretary of state. And they got closer. That will be interesting to watch what role he plays if indeed he wins. Byron . I dont think there is any question he is going to win. I think one question is why does he want to do this because he is going to come to washington. Hes going to distant himself from the president because the president dominates everything here. Trump will Say Something outrageous, he will condemn it and then he will end up voting with the president 90plus percent of the time. Im not sure exactly why he wants to do that. Mike i have had a lot of senators come up to me and say they are scratching their heads saying why do they want the gig . Winners and losers is . My winner is amy. Artist whose portrait of Michelle Obama was unveiled this week. She at age 31 was diagnosed with heart failure, very, very serious and in 2012 had a heart transplant. She is there, the picture of health and success and had overcome enormous number of challenges. My loser is senator bob corkerrer. He is kind he made a big show of opposing the president. Remember that he . Called the white house adult day care. And now he made a big show declining to run for reelection. Now he says he might want to run again except he would need the support of the adult day care center. Mike Marsha Blackburn is not going anywhere and apparently talking to the president. Thats complicated marie your winners had . The olympians. Won the gold and half pike first female olympians to hit backtoback 1080, very difficult move in these half pipe event. She is a great character. She is 17. I wasnt winning gold medals ought 17. Mike no kidding. She is a great olympian. There is a bunch of others too. Loser this week Russian Internet bots to go off internet story. They have been put on notice. They have been named and shamed which is a tool of diplomacy. And hopefully this administration will be making it harder for them and americans will now know to look out for them on the internet and so this may be the start of really cracking down on some of russias internet disinformation behavior. They are my loser of the week. Mike matt . Winner kevin cramer congressman from north dakota who i think will be the next senator from north dakota as he takes on Heidi Heitcamp and my loser, i hate to go back to it my loser partly because reason love him so much would be mitt romney. Like i said, i think its time to find a hobby and move on and to give someone else a chance. Mike cramer jumping in today you think he plays well in a state that President Trump did well in 2016. Absolutely. He has won by double digits. Is he very popular. Obviously at large house race so he runs statewide every time. I think Heidi Heitcamp has something to be nervous about. Mike all right.

Its not an opening bid for negotiation, its a best and final offer. No one is going to get everything they want. I think its safe to say its been a disappointing week. I tried negotiate smaller ears, less gray hair. Struck out on that as well. Mike a heartbreaking week in parkland, florida and our hearts and prayers are with the families there.
