Updates of the days news. Tell bob mueller anything that would incriminate President Trump. There was also the caveat that had he witnessed a crime he would have resigned. Can that be known for certain, depending on what else mueller has learned throughout the probe that don mcgahn did not offer anything that is incriminating to the president . Well, absolutely not. What we have right now is the word of mcgahns attorneys, and so people who were not privy to the conversations cannot know for sure what was told. The reality is it is a bit comforting to the president , of course, because theres ongoing concern that people close to him could Say Something that would harm him. But perhaps Mcgahn Didnt Share anything that could Incriminate Trump because there was nothing to Incriminate Trump, which is the Argument Trump has been making all of this time. But the reality is the investigation is ongoing and we will see more in the near future. Speaking of the reality, eugene, we are talking here when it comes to the mueller investigation, you have President Trump, who says he has been staying out of it but if he wanted to, if he wanted to he
could jump back in and run it. Whats the reality of that . Well, the reality is he does have more power to change who is involved and change leadership, to make more pressure, put more pressure on Jeff Sessions, of course, to make some decisions, and hes done that quite a bit right now. But the reality is his lawyers have cautioned him against that, and it, of course, makes him look as if he had done something that is problematic. Thats the only reason he would probably change the leadership of this investigation to protect himself. It would probably be in his best interests if he is as innocent as he claims he is to let the case run out the way the American People want him. Yes, some lawmakers suggested it would be a constitutional crisis if the president tried to take over the Russia Investigation so to speak. Thank you very much. We will touch base with you in a little bit. Awesome. In a memo written almost two decades ago, Brett Kavanaugh urged Kenneth Starr and his team
to take a tough line on thenpresident bill clintons behavior with monica lewinsky. The memo which contained graphic detail and questions about clintons conduct with lieu went sky was released by the National Archives and Records Administration on monday. The two pages, dated august 15, 1998, kavanaugh then wrote in part, quote, i am strongly opposed to giving the president any break in the questioning regarding the details of the lieu went sky relationship. Kavanaugh was adamant that the independent counsels team had a responsibility to, quote, make clintons pattern of revolving behavior clear. That year kavanaugh expressed regret that Congress Published the report, including the sexually explicit portions of it but he defended the content of the memo. It has raised questions on capitol hill ahead of the confirmation hearings. Im troubled by his role in
the star investigation and what he pressed to be included in the report. Ahead of Brett Kavanaughs hearing next month, conservatives ramped up pressure. Conservatives have run more than 7. 5 Million Dollars in tv ads. Thats compared to approximately 1. 3 million from liberals in the fight over kavanaughs confirmation. The conservative campaign has focused largely on democrats, including doug jones in alabama, joe manchin in west virginia, Heidi Heitkamp of north dakota, also joe donnelly in indiana, republican Susan Collins in maine and Lisa Murkowski of alaska. It comes as President Trumps nominee faces low popularity among voters. 40 of americans said kavanaugh should not be confirmed to the Supreme Court according to a recent cnn ssrs poll. 37 say he should be confirmed
and 22 said they have no opinion. The taliban rejected calls for a cease far. The attack comes this morning after several meetings with the u. S. Delegation last month in an attempt to broker trust and a threemonth truce between the taliban and afghan government. No one was injured in this mornings attack. The taliban will head to moscow next month to join regional talks on afghanistans future, a summit likely to exclude the u. S. According to reports from the Wall Street Journal. Russia has taken an increasingly active role and hosted multilateral talks on the region in the past, however, this is the first time the taliban is known to have accepted an invitation. Now, the taliban has also engaged in separate discussions with pakistan and china and maintains contact with the United Nations and other aid groups. China, india, pakistan, iran are all expected to attend talks in
moscow scheduled for september 4th. Now, the staTe Department did not respond to the Wall Street Journals request for comment on the matter. It will be interesting to see how it plays out.

In many cultures, young men would stay with their families until their 40s. Welcome back. Pope francis is addressing the latest accusations of sexual abups a abuse by priests in the Catholic Church. In a letter yesterday he condemned what he calls atrocities. It comes after a grand jury last week detailed seven decades of abuse by Church Leaders in
pennsylvania. Anne thompson has more. Reporter a remarkable confession from pope francis, admitting the leaders of the Catholic Church failed their people on priest sex abuse. We showed no care for the little ones. We abandoned them. Writing in a letter to the worlds 1. 2 billion catholics, we were not where we should have been, that we did not act in a timely manner realizing the magnitude and the damage done to so many lives. Sean dockerity says one of those lives is his. The last three popes should have made that statement. Theyre really behind the times on this. Theres a lot further that he needs to go. Reporter the catalyst, that horrific Pennsylvania Grand Jury report, detailing sickening abuse by 300 priests over 70 years, victimizing more than 1,000 children. In pittsburgh, the anger visible. A School Sign Bearing washington Cardinal Donald wuerls name vandalized. Wuerl under fire for the grand jurys finding that he protected

Reynolds is one of some 2800 catholics signing an online letter urging bishops to submit their resignation to the pope. Kathleen cummings echoed the call for radical change. The bishops created this crisis and people who create the cries arent going to be the people who are going to lead you out of it. Thanks to Anne Thompson for that report. And President Trump is challenging t challenging independence of the u. S. Federal reserve. The president told reuters he is not thrilled that Jerome Powell is changing Interest Rates,
adding, were negotiating very powerfully and strongly with other nations, but during this period of time i should be given some head by the fed. It is pretty rare for a president to criticize the u. S. Federal reserve, but it is the second time trump has done so just this summer. The president says he will keep up the campaign if the fed continues to raise rates. Both u. S. Stocks and the dollar took a hit after the president s comments. The u. S. And china will resume trade talks tomorrow, but right now there is no telling when the dispute will be settled. The Wall Street Journal reports that the Trump Administration is moving closer this week to levying new tariffs on china. The president also tells reuters theres, quote, no time frame for resolving the dispute. He also accused china in the new interview of manipulating its currency to make up for the tariffs imposed by washington. All of this comes as u. S. Businesses continue to suffer. Many companies and manufacturers are voicing their concern during an extraordinary six days of public hearings being held by the office of the u. S. Trade representative. All right. So you may remember that the
president claimed repeatedly on the Campaign Trail that he hires the best people, but with four exadvisers now indicted, three pleading guilty, his former Campaign Chairman on trial and a former aide in oprey volt, Monmouth University posed this question in its latest survey. Dolls donald trump hire the best people. 30 said yes. The majority, 50 , said no. 50 of adults surveyed disapprove of the president s job performance, up four points in june. When asked about the direction of the country, just 35 say it is on the right track. 57 say it is on the wrong track, a ninepoint swing in the negative direction. Lets take an unscientific poll to see who likes the weather a little cooler now that were getting a taste of fall or who wants to keep summer going. High, bill karins. Youre on the fence of that one. Im not. I know. Ayman is all in on the heat. All in on the heat. We will get some of the thunderstorms we have been dealing with overnight moving through the great lakes.

President trumps lawyer Rudy Guilliani weighed in on twitter writing to john brennan. Today President Trump granted our request, jay sekulow and me, to handle your case. After threatening if you dont, it would be just like obamas red lines. Come on, john, youre not a blowhard. Oh, wow. So the top democrat on the Senate Intelligence committee is filing legislation that would prohibit President Trump from revoking Security Clearances for political reasons. Senator mark warner is offering an amendment to the Defense Appropriations bill that is currently under debate on the senate floor. Warner said yesterday, quote, President Trump is setting an extremely dangerous precedent. Hes using the pours of his office in an attempt to sbim tate and silence his opponents and hes politicizing a process that is, by design, supposed to
be nonpartisan and apolitical. On twitter yesterday President Trump suggested money is motivating scores of retire top intelligences, military and National Security officials to stand up against his stripping excia director john brennan of his Security Clearance. The president wrote, everybody wants to keep their Security Clearance. It is worth great prestige and big dollars, even board seats and that is why certain people are coming forward to protect brennan. It certainly isnt because of the good job he did. Hes a political hack. Trump also suggested fwregreed a factor among Russia Investigation, writing that the current do swrrj official writi quote, will bruce ohr, whose family received big money for helping to create the phoney, dirt east, discredited doesier, ever be fired from the justice department. The president publicly urged the fib to fire former Deputy Director Andrew Mccabe before he was eligible for retirement,
which it did. Trump Accused Mccabe without any evidence of embezzling money from his wifes 2015 state Senate Campaign to go easy on Hillary Clinton. Interesting to hear the president refer to the justice Te Department as Jeff Sessions justice department. Joining us, reporter for the washington post, eugene scott. Good to have you back with us. Lets talk about the twitter trolling from the president and his lawyer. They really arent backing down from John Brennans threats to sue them. What would a legal fight over brennans Security Clearance actually look like . Well, if you listen to the president it would certainly look like pulling private documents of brennans, involving perhaps his conversations and statements about the president , which is what the president has based some of his actions o he says that brennan is being overlypolitical and harmful in his anal sims ysis of the presi but most of the criticism of
trump is that his decisionmaking is political. Thats the reason he wants to hurt brennans reputation and those of other people with clearances. You have the top democrat of the Senate Intel Committee as we were reporting who is making an amendment to stop the president from pulling these clearances. How far can it go . It is not likely to go incredibly far if we see congress to look the way it presently toss wi presently does with republicans having so much power. We have not seen lawmakers in significant numbers speak out against the president s actions in terms of how he is handling Security Clearances, and to expect them to speak out moving forward considering midterm selections and the desire of Trump Supporters for them in their races, it is not likely. The president seems, eugene, to be trying to discredit those who came out in defense of john brennan over the Security Clearance being revoked issue. He is saying theyre motivated by money and the prestige that comes with those positions. How is that playing out with the larger Intelligence Community . It seems that the president is, once again, involved in direct confrontation with members of the Intelligence Community. Well, weve seen people in the Intelligence Community on both sides act very defensively in response to the accusations that they want to hold on to their clearances because theyre quite lucrative. Some have gone so far, quite frankly, to say that they are not as lucrative as people think or perhaps at all, but thats up for debate. There are some book deals, there are some contributorships that people have been granted in part because of their nonagenda expertise. But the president is definitely politicizing the Security Clearances in a way we have never seen a president do in years past and how the public is responding to it is not yet clear. Indeed. Eugene scott for us in washington, d. C. This morning. Thanks, yu again and former Trump Campaign adviser George Papadopolous is
feeling speculation over what his next steps may be in his plea deal. Yesterday he sent out this cryptic tweet. Been a hell of a year, decisions. It came after his wife suggested he is strongly considering backing out of the plea deal he struck with muellers team, which she reiterated in an interview last night. We are discussing now the possibility and the technicalities behind this possibility with lawyers. We have important meetings tomorrow, some lawyers reached out to me for my tweet where we were looking for further assistance and further legal opinions. Simone papadopolous said her husband would make a final decision about his plea deal today. Muellers team is recommending he be given up to six months in prison for lying to the fbi. And jurors in the fraud trial of former trump Campaign Chairman Paul Manafort will be back in virginia today. This morning after failing to reach a verdict for a third day in a row. Thursday, friday, they didnt get the verdict, neither the they yesterday. The jury was relatively quiet during yesterdays deliberations, not sending any notes to judge t. S. Ellis with questions as they had done during thursday and fridays proceedings. The jury remained at the court until shortly after 6 00 p. M. , later than they stayed in the previous two days. That sparks speculation they could be nearing a verdict. The jury is weighing 18 counts of tax evasion, bank fraud and hiding Foreign Bank Accounts against manafort. All right. So former president ial candidate Hillary Clinton is stepping back into the lime light after or i should say before the midterm elections in november. She is doing so to help fund raise for the dnc. Come fall she will be hosting, quote, intimate dinners with discussions in san francisco, chicago and in new york. All of this in an effort to boost the partys chances of taking back the house and the senate. Now, although clinton does not
yet have specifics about the candidates that she may campaign for, she does intend to fund raise for some women running for congress in key races. Even though the dnc has lag behind the rnc in fund raising, clintons outside Political Organization onward together has been contributing to democrats challenging House Republicans representing districts she won in the 2016 president ial contest. It is being called another one of those awkward moments. Still ahead, President Trump facing criticism over his praise of hispanic Border Patrol agents. Plus, migrant parents fighting to be reunited with their children. Jacob soboroff shows us how some parent say they were coerced into signing away the rights to their kids.

In a ceremony Apt The White House yesterday President Trump honored immigration and Border Patrol agents. At one point he told the story of a hispanic american Border Patrol agent he identified as adrian. He recently arrested a smuggler in president trying to bring 78 people into the u. S. Illegally inside a truck trailer. The president ended up inviting him on stage this way. Watch. Adrian, come here. I want to ask you a question. So how did you come here. Youre not nervous, are you . Speaks perfect english. Come here. All right. So the officer thanked trump but made no comment on the president s remark he speaks perfect english. Kind of awkward there. Another one on the list. It has been nearly one month since a federal judges deadline for the Trump Administration to reunite Migrant Children with families after being separated at the southern border. 565 of the kids remain in the governments custody with officials saying the parents of 154 of them have waived their right to get their children back. But many of the parents are actually saying they were pressured or mislead into signing a form to do so. Nbc correspondent Jacob Soboroff has more on one fathers story. Reporter where are we going right now . To see one of our clients. He is a dad who is separated from his son. Reporter Lindsey Teslowski is Executive Director of the immigrant defenders law center. Today most of her time is spent representing separated families, and it turns out many ended up in the los angeles area, some parents still behind bars. We are going to the Detention Facility which is about 90 miles outside of l. A. We have attorneys up here almost every day of the week. Reporter lindsey and other lawyers head out here on a regular basis to push back on the governments contention that parents of 154 kids didnt want to be reunited and intentionally signed documents giving up that right. Youre representing ten people in this facility alone who are fathers who were separated from their kids, and signed papers that basically said i dont want to be reunited with my kid. Yeah. Reporter so this guy, his
name is what, ascencio. Yes. Reporter did he give up his right to be reunited with his son . Absolutely not. He refers to him signing this document he didnt understand as a sin. Reporter a sin . Yes, because he didnt know what he was signing. Only now that he is working with attorneys he understands the repercussion goes of what they signed. People sign because it is an officer in a uniform telling them that they should sign this. Reporter this is atalanto . It is the definks facility. Reporter thats your colleague over there, alfonso . Yes. Reporter whats up. Im jacob. Nice to meet you. How are you . Good. Even though ascencio who i hopefully will meet signed something that says i am affirmatively, knowingly, voluntary requesting to return to my countrys citizenship without my minor children who i understand will remain in the United States to pursue available claims of relief, they say they didnt know what it meant . Yes. They said they were intimidated into signing this, that they are going to be deported regardless and it is up to them to decide if they want their child deported with them or released to a Family Member here. Reporter so they said those are your only options . Yes. Reporter are those the only options . No. Reporter im going the try to go in and Meet Ascencio who signed this form give up being reunited with his son. Reporter we headed in and after three hours headed out without meeting with him. What happened inside. We talked about his son. Reporter did you guys talk about his son and that he signed the form in error . Yes. Reporter he knew i was here and he would have been cool to talk to me . Not just cool to talk to you but he wanted to talk to you. He wanted people to know the story of what happened to him and his son. Reporter did he write a note . He did . Reporter can you read it to me. They are deporting me without me even knowing. I feel like the government is treating me really bad. I feel ignored and i am going crazy. I am in an inhumane situation. This does not have a name. I fear they will deport me and it is signed by him. Reporter and it says his name. Yes. Absolutely heartbreaking story there. It is hard to imagine that parents would knowingly and willingly sign to have their children in any capacity be separated from them, even deported in some cases, knowing theyre leaving their children behind in a foreign country. Tough in the beginning, even more so at the end. Thanks to Jacob Soboroff for that report. Lets switch gears and get a check on your weather with meteorologist bill karins. What have you got for us . We are getting towards the peak of the Hurricane Season in the atlantic basin. After last season, everyone was scared to see what would happen this year. Not to jinx it, but it is eerily quiet. Theres a lot of people going to bed in hawaii concerned with
their forecast in the next three to four days. This is hurricane lane. Look at the welldefined eye. This is a powerful hurricane, wind of 150 miles per hour. Right now it is only 500 miles away from the big island here. Thats not all that far away. The Forecast Path of it has gotten a little bit closer. It was looking like it was going to maybe miss and be a glancing blow. Now theres a possibility of a little more significant concern. Here is the path. We take it today, it is kind of slowmoving. Notice we go from category four. Then on wednesday down to category three. It takes kind of a north wards turn. The big island of hawaii is in the cone of uncertainty, so is maui and honolulu. Almost all of the island are now in the cone of uncertainty. It weakens because of shear as it gets closer to honolulu. The greatest threat is to the big island. Dangerous and high surf all week with strong gusts. Back here to the lower 48, the
concern are Severe Weather risk, 16 Million People as risk, maybe an isolated tornado but the biggest concern is heavy rain. The other story is the below average cooler weather come down from canada.

The fight against china. Administration officials we talk to say they think theyve knocked china on its heels with tariffs and expect more to come. A new reporting in the Wall Street Journal expect them to move ahead with chinese imports and reuters tell us they dont expect progress to be made in the trade talks with china later this week. Expect more on that. Remember that trade is one of President Trumps key issues. The things hes focused on his entire time in public life going back to the 1980s. People tell us he feels confident about this. One hill source told us they are 100 in on this Trade War Against china. See what happens when they pick up the talks tomorrow. And looking at the class of 2019 and fresh faces well see in january. Focus on who those are. Coukortes, the youngest woma l ever elected to congress. The first palestinian, further somali immigrant, wisconsin, First Wisconsin senator possibly and a woman expected to join the pennsylvania delegation. First in four years, and on the republican side, there might be the first koreanamerican elected out of california. Were seeing in this election, midterm year, very much a sense of the demographic trends sweeping the entire nation that Will Essential Reshape the House Of Representatives next year. Seems like a bit of a diverse list there, to say the least. I know axios has polling on how americans see President Trump the hammering of u. S. Allies, all the european bashes thats
taken place. What does it show . This week we asked about foreign relations. Whether they think President Trumps actions abroad are preventing countries from pushing us around or damaging potential alliances. Found majority of americans think trump is going too far. 56 , doing too much damaging alliances. Breaks these into voting groups, splits amongst party lines. Africanamerican women, young people, never hillary independents voted for trump because they voted against Hillary Clinton last year support of president and his strongest voting base overwhelmingly think the president is doing the right thing. Look for both sides to continue to play into base voters in the midterm elections. And also making news, a best mishtive. Outspoken. Time and time again whats comes
up, hypocrisy in all of this. Look at the president s twitter feed showing you the opposite direction shes going. And planning of a solo trip to africa Just Announced as well.
