If you want to list things to worry about, he said his father the president is surrounded by 37 appeasers. Yes, he means people who just tell trump what they think he wants to hear, where the family gives him the right direction. What a perfect definition of a country run by a royal family, again, on the russian model, the romanovs, a bad example of having it all and blowing it. And thats hardball for now. Thanks for being with us. All in with chris hayes starts right now. Tonight on all in. You had a, you know, someone as despicable as hitler, who didnt even sink to the to using Chemical Weapons.

Reagan. The repeal and replace obamacare act. Inpenetrable, physical,tall, powerful, beautiful, southern border wall. We will cancel every illegal obama executive order. But though republicans control the white house and both chambers of commerce, they have failed to pass any significant piece of legislation. The Obamacare Repeal republicans promised for seven years was yanked from the house floor. And the Treasury Secretary has pushed the deadline for tax reform from the summer to the end of the year. The president s one big accomplishment, the confirmation of Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch was largely delivered by Senate Leader mitch mcconnell. In a new nbc news wall street journal poll, confidence has eroded. Even on the attributes where he performed best. Hes down by seven points since february on being firm and decisive, down six on changing Business As Usual in washington,

Claims, its always possible that a highlevel russian defector will appear sometime in the future with documents proving that Jeff Sessions is in fact a foreign agent, perhaps of a sleeper cell sent to alabama during the cold war and activated at Vladimir Putins request during the last election, that would be a game changer. Otherwise the russian conspiracy seemed to hit a culdesac this afternoon in the senate, but that doesnt mean there are no scandals for congress to investigate. Maybe the biggest one about, our Intel Services are corrupt and politicized and theyre making very hard to run u. S. Governmen government. They are running it themselves to some extent.

Responding in a statement, a spokesman for the president s attorney did not dispute the post report, saying only the fbi leak of information regarding the president is outrageous, inexcusable, and illegal. Joining me now, the Washington Posts sari horwitz, one of the reporters who broke this tire. Sari, this would seem to confirm what james comey appeared to indicate, what many have been sort of hinting at, but squarely you guys have nailed down that apparently Robert Mueller is looking at Obstruction Of Justice.
