Comedian larry wilmore. The president said it is it a dinner of washington celebrating themselves. And Julie Banderas is next, byebye. A state used to ground the shake grounds find itself in the epi center of a political upheffal. California hosting the republican convention. And donald trump spoke today and then ted cruz and tonight Carly Fiorina will be speaking, for her it is a homecoming of sorts. She grew up in San Francisco and former ceo of hullut packard. It is by far the largest pool of

As trump prepared these pardons, he discussed using his pardon power to commute the sentence of roger stone which would keep him out of jail despite being convicted in the mueller probe. So as Trumps Justice Department faces one of its greatest controversies over cutting the recommended prison time for of course, mr. Stone, thousands of doj veterans calling on barr to resign, barr claiming that he basically objects only to trump tweeting about that case. All of that is happening and trump makes this move blatant helping a politician convicted of bribery, the former apprentice contestants who was convicted and jailed for bribery. Thats important to keep in mind of trump also now pardoning billionaire michael milken, convicted of lying to authorities. If all of that were not clear enough, right here, right now with this breaking story, President Trump made a point of using this power for someone who is not even in prison anymore with yo
Convicted felon roger stone. But barr is bent out of shape over the president tweeting about it. He says the president s tweets are making it impossible for him to do his job. Now, the public stand is notable. The question is why did barr come forward now. Who is his audience . And what does it say about outrage inside the Justice Department. Criticizing the president can be career ending. Just ask any retired lawmaker who tried it. So this open rebuke from the attorney general begs the question, were bill barrs somehow coordinated with the white house . Well, the New York Times is reporting that a. G. Barr did give the president a heads o up on what he planned to say. Joining us now we have Jeffrey Toobin, carrie cordero, and david chime. Great to have you all. Bill barrs statement is certainly interesting. It was interesting to hear him speak out against the president because it is so rare. You also say some of what he didnt say was interesting. In other words, why did he feel compel

Can appreciate, i cant confirm or deny the existence of an Ongoing Investigation, whether there is one or isnt one. The only reason i raised it, it was an open hearing. Former director said there was such an internal investigation. Well, there are a number of things that i probably would have done differently. Mr. Horowitz . You want to take a stab at that . Im not going to comment on whether or not theres an open or Ongoing Investigation one way or the other. We have over the years refused to do that and im not going to change the policy now. You and i have know each other a long time. I assume thats the answer you give. But here we know about mr. Strzoks private life. We know about his Text Messages.
