The numbers say it all here . Absolutelily the numbers are much worse. I love when the media holds the powerful accountable. I hate it when they hold the powerful selectively accountable. Weve seen for years, theyve played defense attorney for one side and prosecuting attorney for others and in trumps case, judge, jury and. You can go into the dossier, the uranium one, the bottom line, theyre not curious, inquist tiff, when it comes to trump theyll hire 100 people to look into it and sits sheer promise at this point in time. Liz gerri, the Washington Post had an oped bringing up the point. When will the Mainstream Media get over this hatefest of President Trump . Washington post is considered a fabulous source inside the beltway, right . The left loves the Washington Post and, yet, you remember that in the jetsons, that character that says, does not compute, you can see the journalists thinking this makes no sense to me. Really, really . They cant get their arms around whats really going on here, that this information is bogus, that it comes from the russians and the dossier should be thrown out. Liz michael, give me your thoughts on this. I dont think its a coincidence that the reports are coming out at the same time. That the Mueller Investigation is starting to ramp up. The Washington Post reported on this and also reported on don, jr. The New York Times reported on this and reported on rather, the dossier, there has been consistency. One story don, jr. Admitted to and the other stories doesnt hold many legs. There was not Nuclear Energy exchanged or rather the raw Nuclear Material exchanged and there isnt a narrative here. Liz rachel, this is a big question, too, this dossier stuff costs millions of dollars. Thats right. Liz there is a report that there was a republican competing against donald trump during the Election Campaign who had the same company and obviously went over to the dnc. Right, and you know, your last guest was right, donald, jr. Said at this meeting and suddenly nobody at the dnc knows anything about this. Im of political stock, and when theres juicy information on the candidate, people know. And people in charge of the campaign know whats going on. This is so fishy and kudos to kimber Kimberly Strassel for doggedly follow this story letting the investigators and congress to keep following this trail. I think that the dnc is guilty here, i think that hillary must have known. The uranium bomb making what were seeing is the collusion was all the on the other side and of course, the people who are pushing this story, the people saying democracy will die in darkness want the russia story to die in darkness. Liz back to the Media Coverage or lack thereof, the morning that the Washington Post story came out, gary, the today show carried it and also had cbs this morning also carrying it and suddenly by the evening news, which is of course a compressed half hour of time, had not been too interested in this. And look, what they do is when they decide to cover 30 seconds of it, theyll bring somebody like adam schiffon to ask what do you think of this . And what do you think hes going to say . Look, for me, again, we can talk for hours about nine people from uranium one paying into the clinton foundation. Tens of millions of dollars, prior, during and after the deal. My question is, do you not even care about investigating any of this . And the answer is, no. Because time and time again, when youre on their side, when they like you, youre god. When they dont like you, were going to go after you with vim and verve and put you guilty as charged beforehand and thats all weve been seeing sense day one. Liz gerri, as a journalist, its important to point out, there seems to be a discrepancy between in depth investigation at the Network Television level and then at the newspaper level because, again, the Washington Post isnt exactly friendly to President Trump at all, yet, it was the one who invested the time and its reporters work to break this story. Well, you know, listen the Washington Post has broken many stories that are negative and against the trump administration, thats for sure. This was a change of pace. Whats interesting, the dossier has been out for weeks and months and the first time were hearing it was financed by clinton and the democrats. Why did it take so long to come out . Why didnt we know this before . It was the buzz feed release of a lot of the information, michael, controversial. A lot of networks didnt touch it back then, they could not verify it, but the dnc and Hillary Clinton in her book said its an outrage it doesnt come out before the election and journalists couldnt verify it, most quality journalists and they didnt put it out there. And then a lot in the dossier are verified. A lot of this i think so in there that and thats not true. Which is why not even close. There have been things in the dossier verified and things now that the Intelligence Committee is continuing to look into, but that doesnt negate the fact that both sides do opposition research. This isnt something thats out of the norm. Liz the allegations in it are ridiculously silly. I mean, its not like accusations that you want to take action on. Its ridiculous nonsense and one single reading of it shows that this should not be part of the and its open to question though, gary, about whether and how we have foreign agents getting involved or that we have organizations like fusion gps, the company that eventually led to this dossier, that go to by the way it was a United Kingdom former soldier involved in doing some of the research here. Theyre going to foreign governments to get stuff on us. Isnt that what the republicans were supposed to do . And by the way, here is another issue thats not being talked about. What about the fbi . Did they use this to go after trump on his investigation . Bad Research Funded by the clintons and the dnc . All the way around, again, it should be investigated, it should be talked about, and ive got to tell you, when the whole thing with don, jr. Came up. I turned on different channels and 126 times it he at the bottom of the screen was don, jr. And trump and russia, a big difference. More damning than the dossier i think is the uranium one stuff. Its very, very damning and i would say, the Washington Post does not get a pass on this. The attorney for the informant in that case has not even been contacted by the Washington Post or any of the major networks. So, again, democracy dies in darkness and it applies both ways. Hyperbolic language makes it all flowery and makes a good talking point. Lets be serious here. Youve said earlier that campaign wives, campaign spouses family members know whats going on. Thats right. How come the president didnt know about don, jr. s meeting and why was he kept in the dark. Because don, jr. s meeting was not significant. He was approached by the rush sluns and did nothing with it. The clintons on the other hand were funding this research in collusion with the russians. Liz all right, coming up, stay away from my 401 k . Lawmakers looking for a tax revenue money grab are now toying with possible changes to your retirement accounts. What it could mean for you and your future. Prudential asked these couples how much money do you think youll need in retirement . Then we found out how many years that money would last them. How long do you think well keep oooooohhh you stopped youre gonna leave me back here at year 9 . How did this happen . It turned out, a lot of people fell short, of even the average length of retirement. We have to think about not when we expect to live to, but when we could live to. Lets plan for income that lasts all our years in retirement. Prudential. Bring your challenges. 401 k s to me are very important and theyre important because thats one of the great benefits to the middle class. I didnt want that to go too far. Thats why i ended it quickly. Kevin brady, the chairman of house, ways and Means Committee said this morning it could be on the table. Maybe it is and maybe well use that as negotiating, but trust me, thats one of the great things. You know, there are certain elements of deals you dont want to negotiate with. 401 k s and kevin knows it, and i think kevin brady is fantastic, but he knows how important 401 ks are. Liz that throws in a question mark. Taking away from your 401 k s, it could change millions of 401 k s plans, including capping the amount of contributions that could be tax deferred. Gerri, the president said hand off and Mick Mulvaney says well veto anything that will touch it and we have a question on the House Republicans and the president used the word compromise. So casual the president saying, maybe we will, maybe we wont. At the end of the day, its no surprise to me congress is going off 5. 8 trillion dollars in 401 k savings. Thats not a surprise. What is surprising is that the republicans that are doing it, not the democrats. Thats who i expected to come after our money. After all, here is what brady and co want to do, they want to move up tax receipts. They want you to pay taxes now on your 401 k savings. I say thats wrong. Any change to the 401 k will dissuade people from saving. You want it take away my ability to save, but youre not giving me anything else to help me out. I think its a tragedy and a big mistake. Liz its infuriating, is it not, michael . The 401 k is sort of that last little thread hanging from an already shredded tax code, and it really helps people in their later years when they need money because they dont have income. It does. It especially helps middle class people, we dont have pensions as much anymore. Those have gone the way of the dodo bird. And when you have social security, which obviously has its own issues when it comes to it, we need to make sure that middle class people have a safety net and theyre not just relying on governmental programs later on. When we remove that tax or make it so that the income is taxed from 18,000 down to 24. Look, its always been taxed, the question is when. Its not a deduction, you pay for it when you take the money out, theres nothing wrong with that and brady and co should take their hands off my 401 k . Liz rachel, theyve got to find revenue to help pay for a mult multimillion dollar tax cut to everyone. Theyre looking at 401 k s. I agree that people need to be financially independent in their old age, but the deal, they need to find streams of revenues because theyre living by rules of Net Neutrality that the democrats put in place. The democrats put the rules in place to make it harder to cut spending and guess what . We won the election, why are we playing by democrats rules. We need to get rid of the rules and get rid of the budget neutrality and do a tax code that works for the American People. The economys dynamic. If you get more revenue in look, were bringing in more money than every have and we still have these budget deficits. The problem is spending, not taxes. Liz are there any true fiscal conservatives left . And why dont they put their brain power to work, gary, and figure out something here that doesnt hurt the very thing that is supposed to keep us off the government dole in our later years . Well, look, if they screw with 401 k s, theyre going to be hearing from a lot of people. There are 50 million workers, over a half Million Companies involved with this. Almost 6 trillion in there. Look, ive been saying this for years. Government spending is the greatest bull market in history. It goes up every year no matter what. We just went from 3. 7 to 4. 1 trillion in one year. How about carving a little bit out of that. No, we cant. In three years, were going to be at 5 trillion and nobody says anything even on the right. Im tired of several the socalled conservatives, we care so much and fiscally responsible and boom, we throw in another budget with 4. 1 trillion dollars in it. Weve got to change the trajectory. The markets are doing great right now, but one day theyre going to start reacting to debt and deficits out there and i hope not to be around when that happens. And the market is going to react if they change the 401 k rules, the money comes in from 401 k gets invested and its not going to be there, thats not good for the market. It sends a bad news if they cut the estate tax and tax people on 401 k s, the messaging is terrible. Liz got to figure it out.

Coming up, cvs reportedly looking to buy aetna for 66 billion. Is this the Health Care Reform that americans need or will this mega deal give p fox news alert. Good saturday morning to you, im leland vittert. Special Counsel Robert Mueller has reportedly filed the first charges in the investigation of russian meddling in the election. And a grand jury apparently approved them. The wall street journal reported one person could be taken into custody as soon as monday. Its not clear who could be indicted or what the charges will be. Fox news has not independently confirmed the story, but our reporters are working on it throughout the weekend and vicepresident mike pence visiting an air force base in north dakota which has one of the most powerful Nuclear Arsenals in the united states. Addressing service members, saying their mission is vital to keep peace around the world. More on these stories and more, including some of the president s tweets when we see you at the top of the hour. Im leland vittert. Now back to our regularly scheduled programming. Forget repeal and replace, is this the future of health care . The wall street journal reporting cvs is looking to by aetna for 66 billion. Its a deal that could mean big changes for your health care services. Gary, good changes or bad changes . I think potentially good and one word, amazon. Amazons getting involved in the business in a big way and where theres more competition theres the potential for prices coming down. Now, for cvs this is about one thing, touch. They want to be able to touch more people. Aetna is a ton of people. Cvs already has all the people coming in and this will just add to it and lets just hope competition breeds lower prices as we move forward, but leave no doubt that health care is big a blob that has to be worked out over time. Liz and like the blob its bigger and bigger and moving towards us. Rachel, what would it mean to a consumer who is upset about paying such high pharmaceutical prices. I know its hard to anticipate, but what do you expect . Well, i think exactly what he just said. I think that we may see prices come down as theres no competition. What i find interesting is as we see millions of aetna subscribers or members going into cvs or pushed into cvs, does cvs move more into health care and providing services that you once had to go to the hospital to get . I have eight kids, i hate going to the hospital. The idea that i can do these things or at least some of these things more easily at my local corner drug store. I like that idea. Liz and getting the flu shot was the first breach of that wall with youve got to have a doctor. Michael, what do you think . I think that access is going to be the big thing. Like rachel said in rural and urban areas people mo maybe cant afford to go to the doctor on a regular basis because of time or location, use cvss and other pharmaceutical stores to get their health care and i think thats a good thing. Liz yeah, especially veterans who sometimes live in rural areas as you said. Lets hope these people, gerri. I think its good news for pharmaceutical prices because cvs is going to have more leverage to negotiate with big pharma and maybe well see some prices come down. No surprise that theres a tieup here and really, coming back full circle, its motivated by amazon. Amazon is driving the bus here and making changes. Youve got to keep your eye on that company. Liz all right, lets hope the prices of drugs comes down. Coming up, the house budget, taxing by a razor thin margin. Its paving the way for tax cuts, but some say it could be a bad signs for tax cuts. Well explain. Double digits. It really scared him out of the markets. His advisor ran the numbers and showed that he wouldnt be able to retire until he was 68. The client realized, i need to get back into the markets i need to get back on track with my plan. The Financial Advisor was able to work with this client. Hes now on track to retire when hes 65. Having someone coach you through it is really the value of a Financial Advisor. Hi.
