To help grow your business. Another way we have your back. The powerful backing of american express. Dont do business without it. Welcome to kasie d. C. Im kasie hunt. We are live from washington every sunday from 7 00 to 9 00 p. M. Eastern. Tonight, publish or perish . James comey is out with a bombshell new book as the feds release a report deeply critical of Andrew Mccabe. Were joined by congressman jim himes of the House Intelligence Committee who says the president doesnt have the right to shine james comey shoes. Plus sanctions coming for russia after america strikes targets in syria. But what remains to be seen is the american strategy. Beyond declaring mission
accomplished. But first, the week begins full of questions. What do the feds have on Michael Cohen . Who is back in court in just a few hours. Stormy daniels will be there, too. How will the president react to james comey interview tonight . And how much longer will Rod Rosenstein have an office in the Department Of Justi
His family, extraordinary success. Great doctor, great everything. He has to listen to the abuse he has to if i were him, actually, in many ways id love to be him. But the fact is, i wouldnt do it. I wouldnt do it. What does he need it for . To be abused by a bunch of politician that arent thinking nicely about our country . I really dont think personally he should do it. Its totally his. I would stand behind him. Totally his decision. Okay. Now trump tapped jackson for the job after firing at that time previous head of the va, David Shulkin who came on this show after his firing and told me trumps political appointees at the agency conspired against him because he refused to move quickly to privatize the va. Jackson does not have the sort of resume that would prepare him to lead the va with its more than 375,000 employees. Before his nomination, he was most famous for his remarkably rosy assessment of the president s health which
included references to trumps incredibly good genes and
We know you love it, so get more of it, with applebees new bigger bolder grill combos. Now thats eatin good in the neighborhood. Welcome to kasie d. C. Im kasie hunt. We are live from washington every sunday from 7 00 to 9 00 p. M. Eastern. Tonight it turns out the most consequential thing released from james comey this week was probably not his book. Plus, Climate Change and the president s legal team. The outlook is cloudy for Michael Cohen. The Attorney General and Rod Rosenstein. And later, we are witnessing a genuine thaw in relations with north korea or are we witnessing the art of the deal as written by kim jongun . Bill richardson joins me live to
talk about the hermit kingdom. But first we start with two images. The first an actual photograph of four president s and their wives. The photograph was taken by paul morris at the funeral for barbara bush. In the center you can see george h. W. Bush, behind him his son george, his wife laura, his arm around the clintons. On the edge
Probably stay republican with the chief Justice Roberts as the judge, win it there and declare a victory. And thats what he should do. Well, we have to remember bill clinton was impeached but stayed in office. So it doesnt necessarily mean it would be the end of his precedency. Takes a two thirds vote, remember. So, jack, would firing him get the president his ability to control the Special Counsel investigation. That would be the only reason of getting rid of rosenstein. I think itll be exceedingly difficult. I cant imagine someone will come in and sit in rosensteins place and try to babysit him and redirect of the course of the investigation. Thats just not going to happen. I totally agree with everything bob said, by the way. And i think if he tries to replace rosenstein, if he tries
to replace sessions, it would be seen for what it is. It would be seen as the act of a man with a guilty mind. Innocent people dont behave this way. They dont threaten to fire anyone whos taken a hard l
Immigration. As you pointed out, he spent a threeday weekend in mara large reminding the president that the midterms are coming up. On top of the vocal criticism from ann coulter. We are told that the president was already frustrated that there has been a lack of progress in his view in building the border wall. All of this was exacerbated with the reports on fox news with the caravans coming. It isnt just on the Immigration Issue as you pointed out. It is a myriad of topics the president is touching on. Amazon, nafta, mexico. Some may say he has lost some of his moderating forces in the white house including hope hicks former communication director who left last week and this is the first week the president was without her by his side. Even when she was here, he still went through these fits of fury. At the bottom line here is this is the president being the president. It is obviously not the first time that the president has gone after multiple groups in just one day. Reporter absolu
