not expecting any big revelations. joining us now is tim n, do u expect a bomb shell, what are you looking for? all intelligence are con spear the general public obviously is interested in any grand conspiracy that involves the killing of kennedy. we are learning a lot about smaller conspiracies, about elements of u.s. covert action and u.s. espionage in the 1960s that got caught up in the grand conspiracy thinking of the 70s and 80s and are part of the demand for release of materials in the 1990s, for those of us who study intelligence services and kennedy s approach to covert
america to send materials of political warfare. you can see that in the documents. is there anything juicy? is there any juicy nugget? is there any juice, tim, where s the juice? about the kennedy assassination that we won t have known previously. so far, but i ve only looked at 20% of it. let me tell you, so far there s some really good juice about assassination plots about other people. i learned more details about how the mafia were used in an attempt to kill castro. i understand much better the technique that would have been involved and why it was a serious effort, which did not actually succeed as we know. was it an exploding cigar? oh, my goodness. no, it was actually pills. we knew there were pills, but how the pills were actually sent to cuba, who it was who had the pills in cuba. why it was the mafia was involved, and what role a mafia run casino in havana played in
he wasn t a former senator. he wasn t a former governor where he was surrounded by people that believed in him necessarily and came with him here. he surrounded himself by people right now that are folks who have either made their career in politics or folks tried to make their career in politics and saw this as a golden opportunity to go to the white house. he is in a lot of trouble. and as tim said we ll see a lot of ranting and perhaps behavior that could top what we have seen so far. all right. thank you all very much. what s new? well, i guess that s the case, if she was the last thing between him and that, then it was a thin barrier indeed. but nonetheless such that it was, whips of a barrier is gone. who will follow hope hicks out the door? one of the crucial questions this hour. trump not happy we are now hearing with the chief of staff, john kelly. plus attorney general for the first time fighting back against president trump. what made jeff sessions snap and stand up fo
few weeks when she leaves that voice will no longer be here. thank you, very much jeff zeleny, and it s a big loss for this president, person who relies on this individual, and this individual perhaps any other, whatever her role is, helping with a tweet, being there when he needs someone to talk to, she was a person. and that will be avoid. and now our panel here, and tim n with me in new york. she was there since the beginning. she was always there. any meeting he would have with the press, she was always there. any time in the office she was always there. as this source told me she was his last emotional crutch. how big is this? well, you know, all presidents have change. and the team that starts with the president may not be the
they talk. so i believe she may play a bigger role in that piece. but when we look at what is happening, we saw it together. they canceled the press briefing. and there was a fear that someone could have gotten a little bit of inkling or a leak what was happening. they didn t want to step on this listening session for guns. so that s one of the reasons why they canceled the briefing today. so a lot of this is strategic. and they didn t want this to get out until they wanted it out. they wanted the president to make the statements about the gun then come this out. he wanted this em to have the moment which is what he wanted and not over shadowed by hope hicks which has completely happened. mark? listen, this sa tough day. this is a very tough day right now for president trump. and as tim and april and yourself and i are kind of ruminating about what s going to happen, i think there is great concern. because donald trump is not a product of washington. he doesn t have allies in town.
