the first traunch. i asked him if he felt responsible because of his tweets to the 623-point drop in the dow industrial average today. he began by saying on balance, the stock market has increased over the course of the last year but then he concluded by saying don t tell me about 600 points. as if it s not that big of deal and in the larger scheme of things, it s insignificant. jay powell who came under for withering criticism, the president s tweet today when the president said he s not sure who is the bigger enemy he asked, chairman xi of china, chairman of the communist party that s president of china or jay pa powell, that raised a lot of eyebrows. he said jay powell is not much of a chess player he said and then later in the discussion back and forth with reporters that are sofa mi familiar, he id
report found there was no fbi briefing warning the trump campaign that he was running a counterintelligence case on flynn. the special counsel s office declined to comment. shannon? shannon: all right, catherine herridge, thank you very much. attorney general bill barr is determined to get to the bottom of what actually sparks the probe into the trump campaign in the 2016 election. barr spoke with fox s bill hemmer and an exclusive while they were travelling in el salvad salvador. in his first interview since becoming attorney general, bill barr laid out a legal road map for his investigation. he made it clear he has questions about the fisa court and how the steele dossier was used. this appears to run deep. why is it so hard to figure out. i think there s a misconception out there that we know a lot about what happened. the fact of the matter is, bob mueller the id not look did not look at the government s activities. he was not going back and
like someone who has the ability to go in and engage in sort of the full cooperation that prosecutors would demand to complete a cooperation agreement. so what would manafort have that he could offer? prosecutors who just finished trying a case in the eastern district of virginia now have to gear up and go to trial again in washington. that s a considerable expenditure of time and resources, especially if they have the intention to work on additional cases. so if manafort were to offer to plead guilty, it would, for prosecutors, be an efficiency gain. he could probably seek from them a leniency for the amount on his property that might be seized, leaving him with resources that might provide for his family while he s in prison. so i would resist leaping to the conclusion that the conversation fell apart over cooperation and think that it might be a much more mundane sort of negotiation over a plea. robert costa, donald trump was talking about his approval ratings as the country was l
this is happening as the president whittles down the locations of his own meeting with kim, sflotifloating the id there may be a meeting or may not be a meeting at all. we have not picked a sight yet. we have picked five sites where it potential will is going to be. we ll see what happens. we ll either have a very good meeting or we won t have a very good meeting or maybe we won t even have a meeting at all depending on what s going in. but i think that there s a great chance to solve a world problem. let s go to retired rear admiral kirby now. admiral, walk me through potential locations. he said five locations. we don t know exactly what location but we can take some educated guesses. it s probably not going to be in
inappropriate his comments in that radio interview where he said there are all sorts of things i d life to do with the fbi and justice department. i guess like investigate my former political opponent and other democrats but people won t let me. this idea of the id, of what he wishes to do out in public, in some ways is really stunning to see. you wonder what nixon would have sounded like. and i heard from some former justice department officials that some of hearing that out loud is double-edged. you know his intent but it also speaks to state of mind when they go digging around in the obstruction of justice investigation. what we ve heard time and again about the president is that he doesn t necessarily listen to the legal advice of the attorneys that work for him either in the white house or outside the white house. and he sort of charts his own course. he s a 71-year-old man. i m not sure he s going to change much at this point. he ran for president sort of doing what he thought
