don t have evidence of this, but why is it that this information about sessions would be leaked to one or two days after the best day of the trump presidency when he had that very successful state of the union speech? jon: sean spicer for the record says there is no there there. chris wallace, we have to run, we will be watching you on fox news sunday, thank you. jenna: fox news alert, president trump s big speech coming up in the next hour on an aircraft carrier in virginia as mr. trump promotes his plan for major military buildup, the president will make remarks on the uss gerald ford which is expected to be disk the commission later this year. her correspondent is live from newport news, virginia. get to talk to you, excitement still building aboard the uss gerald r ford as we continue to await the arrival inside the hole here of the president of the united states of america. he did actually land not long ago, he will get a briefing before making his way in here where he wil
a double standards because attorney general lynch never recuse yourself after meeting with bill clinton one week after the fbi interview about the emails, the house minority leader said no. she did not have a major role in the hillary clinton campaign. this is a complete different thing. the reason we have been saying that the attorney general sessions should step aside in maybe should never have been confirmed is because he was a surrogate. former intelligence officials have also confirmed to fox news elements of a story that first appeared in the new york times, the outgoing obama admin attrition was determined not to let the russia issue die and to that end, intelligence about russia s interference of the u.s. election was circulated so that it would not be buried. jenna: thank you. jon: as information continues to drip out about the alleged russian influence in the u.s. election and possible ties
ambassador. maybe nothing is to it because it could well be that as sessions now says, he was meeting with them solely as a member of the senate armed services committee appeared having said that, in the confirmation hearing, he said directly that he had no communication with the russians, he did not say as he said today this morning outside his house that there was no communication about the campaign. he said there was no communication. one wonders, given the fact that this was not just a random conversation with senator franken, this was in the confirmation hearing. he had been really prepared for that, why he did not make that clear or if it had just been an oversight, they have an opportunity, nominees do, to clarify the record to set it straight. he had weeks between then and his confirmation to do so, and he never said, i did meet with him but it was about this. that seems odd. jon: i have the feeling fox news sunday is going to be very interesting this weekend. no surprise

weak border security was helping drugs get into this country, and the fbi director james comey agrees. he is now saying the mexican cartels are growing poppy in mexico which makes it cheap to ship the drugs into the states and helps them corner the market. that means the feds need to make sure they tackled the source of the cheap drugs, not just dealers or users. we cannot arrest our way out of this problem. we have a very important role to play. our job is to try to crack down on the supply, literally, to be very blunt, to drive up the price to make it less and less attractive. i just spoke to governor hogan inside a few minutes ago. he said he called the state of emergency when there were riots in baltimore a few years ago, but nobody died during those riots. with the opioid crisis in maryland, people are dying every day. jon: sadly, it is not the only state with that kind of problem.
