Joining me. We begin today with a key race alert. Donald trump taking all 50 delegates in South Carolina. A decisive victory. This is important because South Carolina has an almost perfect record of predicting who will win the republican nomination since 1980. Also enthusiasm is high. Voter turnout records were shattered last night with more than 700,000 republican votes cast and youre looking right now at live pictures from people lining up for Donald Trumps rally in atlanta, georgia today where trump is expected to address a crowd of thousands. And he told cnns jake tapper that he expects it to be a trumpclinton race. Bernies not going to make it in my opinion and i never thought he would. Hilary wont make it. I mean, frankly if she gets indicted thats the only way shes going to be stopped and it will be between hilary and myself. They say that it will be the largest voter turn out in the history of United States elections. All right. Todays headlines speak for themselves. Take a loo
House. What are you learning from Trump Campaign advisors meeting with the Russian Ambassadors at the rush convention. Thats right. In addition to this previously undisclosed meeting, were learning Trump Campaign advisors met with the Russian Ambassador over the suppmmer at the republican convention. This meeting occurred at Case Western Reserve University and involved j. D. Gordon who weve known been involved in washington and advised various campaigns and advising the Trump Campaign and he says he and another advisor named carter page and tferris met with the Russian Ambassador during the Convention Taking Place in cleveland over the summer last summer. Now that is is important because it was at the convention where j. D. Gordon tells me and we spoke on the phone he sought on behalf of the campaign a change in the gop platform that was against arming the ukrainians and obviously a hot top pick at that time. Now im told by j. D. Gordon at no point during their conversations with the R
Covering the president up in bedminster, new jersey. This is major news. A very Significant Development and it comes on the heels of several other senior officials leaving. Reporter thats right, wolf. And im hearing from one white house official in the last couple of minutes here that it is believed that steve bannon resigned, but it is also believed that he may have been given the option to resign. So sounds like, wolf from a source im talking to in the last couple of minutes here that he was essentially forced out of this position, as chief strategist at the white house, and one of the big reasons why and weve heard it time and again, from people close to the president. The president does not like other people inside the white house stealing the limelight. You saw this happen time and again. Steve bannon appearing on the cover of time magazine. Steve bannon lampooned on saturday night live. Times this just got under the president s skin and as you know, over the last week, steve bann
For americas news headquarters. Elizabeth happy saturday, im elizabeth prann. President trump reacting once against to the ig report on the fbis handling of Hillary Clintons email investigation. His tweets blasting former fbi director james comey and follows what he told reporters on friday in an offthecuff news conference, hi, garrett. Good to be with you. The president believes that this ig report substantiates what hes been saying more than a year now. That government officials under the Obama Administration were clearly out to get him. This morning he tweeted the ig reports totally destroys james comey and all of his minions including the great peter strzok and lisa page. It will go down as a dark and dangerous period in american history. In particular, taking the position that peter strzok and lisa page texted each other they would never allow candidate trump to become president. Here is what he had to say about that yesterday right here on the white house driveway. I am amazed th
To make time for it telegraphed the gravity of it, at least it has until now. In the past, with only rare exceptions, you might disagree with what a president said from the oval Office Without wondering if you were straightup being misled or lied to. Keeping them honest, sadly, thats not the case tonight. Now, its not our job to advocate for or against a given policy. Its our job to call out the dishonest pursuit of it. So as we wait for the president to speak about what he calls the crisis on the border, were starting with the crisis of credibility hes created for himself. If what his Vice President said today is any indication, the dishonesty will continue. So consider this a kind of prebuttal or at least a viewers guide for what may be coming tonight because the white house has continued to fudge the facts as late as today. With regard to terrorists, weve seen more than 4,000 known or suspected terrorists attempt to come into our country through various means but on the southern bor
