though no mention of russia. no mention of putin in today s speech. no. there was one brief mention, but only to criticize germany for depending on russian energy. but no mention in all that talk of sovereignty about the greatest assault on american sovereignty that we ve seen in recent memory. maybe in my lifetime. 9/11 was not as big an assault on the core sovereignty of the united states. it s what russia did by directly interfeing in the elections of 2016. now we re coming up with new elections. there s more interference. yet our president isn t talking about russia because deep down, he thinks probably the russians helped get him elected and his is an illegitimate presidency. and that scares the hell out of him. christopher dickey actually managed to look awake at 5:30 in the morning where the ark de triumph looked beautiful behind him. thanks to you. thanks to nancy cook for joining
who isn t talking. out front for us next. a top republican says reports show there s a bureaucratic coupe happening under donald trump. is it just pair know gentleman? brett kavanaugh on the attack tonight. a sign of determination or desperation. and noel francisco, get used to hearing that name. he may end up overseeing the mueller probe. a hotel can make or break a trip. and at expedia, we don t think you should be rushed into booking one. that s why we created expedia s add-on advantage. now after booking your flight, you unlock discounts
planned, right? absolutely. the fact that he didn t talk for quite some hours and still isn t talking is why it took them a while to declare this as terror act. they will immediately be looking to see if he was connected to anyone or anyone else. does not appear to be well-planned the way he entered this gate in parliament does suggest that he didn t know exactly the best route around here. perhaps it suggests also he is not part of a larger cell. we certainly haven t seen police operating anywhere else in london. sometimes you would see them raiding houses elsewhere as soon as they get details. that is the major point of the investigation. who was he? is he connected to anyone else? what information can they glean from him, from his cells, from his cell phone calls recently? that will be the point of the investigation. and hopefully, this leads them to other people. even better this was a one-off lone wolf attack.
about when the president s legal team will respond to a request from mueller s interview? soon. either today, monday, or tuesday at the latest i am told. and this is really procedural because how many times have we talked about a back and forth between team mueller and team trump on this whole question of an interview? i mean we ve been talking about it for months and months and months. but we re really getting close to what the trump legal team hopes and thinks is decision time because we re now three to four weeks away from labor day, which is the unofficial start of the mid-term election season. and their hope and their expectation inside the trump team at least because the mueller team isn t talking, of course, is that the sort of this is left alone in that window of politics, in that window of campaigning. so we ll see if that happens. we don t know exactly what the counteroffer is going to be.
