The teammates to inmates. Going to take down the George Washington plaque saying it makes some in our presence feel unsafe. Thats in the left. Here comes fisher. Astros win it in 10. Steve it is a rainy day here in new york city. Holy cow. Ainsley it is cold. It is wonderful. Brian last time we were under attack in new york because the loud thunder and for the First Time Since sandy, we lost power five years ago and we got a generator this time. Steve and . Brian and life jackets in case it happens again. We had that five second pause where everyone looked at each other in the dark and it came on. First time we actually had a generator that worked. Steve you know what happens next . All the neighbors are looking exactly its so unfair. Ainsley it was five years almost to the day. Brian yeah. I guess it was. It actually worked. And now our power is back on and i didnt oversleep. Thats biggest fear you lose power overnight when its dark and wake up 5 00 in the morning and realize you overslept by three hours. Steve thats why i have one of those hand crank and the phone is separate as well. I got three clocks in the morning. Brian we rented this car and there were hand cranks in the window and my daughter looked at this and said look what they invented. Total reverse of what. Steve what kind of car was it . Ainsley that car . Those cars. Steve you were in cuba 1962 . Brian i know you are jealous but i mean i remember my dad saying i will not use electric windows and it will short and we wont be able to get them down. Steve now we know how they work. Brian to the top story tonight today. Please dont heckle me from the control room. There is speculation mounting as we await the first indictment of the special counsel on Robert Muellers russia probe. We expect it today. Ainsley today not tonight. It is an announcement that could be made today. Steve what do we know for sure . A lot of speculation. Griff jenkins is going to know us what we know for a fact. Good morning to you, griff. Good morning, brian, ainsley and steve. We dont know for sure that speculation is highly intense here in washington. We could see somebody taken into custody this morning, guys. In this grand jury approves first charges, we will get a much better idea of where this investigation, special counsel is headed. We have no idea who will be charged or even what the charges are. But we have reported on some of the known targets of this investigation like mike flynn, the president s former National Security advisor being investigated for conversations he had with russians during the campaign or Paul Manafort, the onetime Campaign Chairman whose house was raided back in july and whose soninlaw was questioned by the fbi. Or it is entirely possible the person being charged is someone that we havent heard of before. Whoever it is, republicans are blasting these leaks of the charges which was sealed by a federal judge and democrats like adam schiff, the Ranking Member of the House Intelligence Committee says he has not been informed of the charges, but suggest who it is may answer some of the key questions. If it is Paul Manafort, and he has apparently told others that he expects to be indicted, it may help us answer one very central question in the investigation. The question is, who gave what to whom as a result of these overtures . Schiff was also pressed whether he knew whether or not the president was under investigation. Schiff would not comment. Guys, we have teams all over the city if something happens, we will bring it to you the moment it happens. Steve excellent. Brian the white house says they know for sure the president is not under investigation and no one in the Current White House is under investigation. Steve thanks, griff. What we do know, you know, down in washington, muellers team has been talking to a grand jury since july. And on friday, they did get an indictment. The indictment was sealed by the order of the judge, but somebody blabbed to cnn. And that is against the through leak what is going on with grand jury. Brian dont you think its telling they did it to cnn, too . And it took us a while to verify it. I think its very telling. Ainsley says could face charges as well. We dont know who is being charged. Lets assume the report something true, we dont know who is being charged. We dont know what they are being charged for. We dont know the time period. I will tell you, this the only conversation i have had with Robert Mueller, it was stressing to him the importance of cutting out the leak with respect to serious investigation. It is kind of ironic that the people charged with investigating the law and executing the law would violate the law and make no mistake, disclosing grand jury material is a violation of the law. So, as a former prosecutor, im disappointed that you and i are having the conversation because somebody violated their oath of secrecy. Brian it makes you wonder about the credibility of the whole thing. I also say, this im interested to see if its related to russia and this administration or not or its just something that its Paul Manafort something that happened before he even joined the trump administration. Ainsley they are not aware anyone that works in the white house or anyone connected to the white house like don jr. Or jared kushner. Chris christie said yesterday, if you are being indicted, you know it. Steve if you are a target, you know people have been talking to you. Susan collins the senator from up north she said there is no evidence of collusion, thats important. But there are a couple of stories out there that Paul Manafort apparently back in 2012 apparently he had some money infusions from overseas to the tune of 3 million. 12 different wire transfers and suddenly the feds were looking at that plus, apparently, according to the wall street journal, he was being probed for Money Laundering as well. So, would it be him . Would it be flynn . We dont know. As soon as we do know, well tell you. Brian just keep in mind this. Just because they indict you doesnt mean you are guilty. Then they get to fight back. Mount a defense and find out what they have and go to trial and see where it goes from there. Thats just their opinion about what they have arequired so far. Im wondering if its related to last week in the beginning of the week there is a lot of talk about g. P. S. And fusion g. P. S. And who hired what and who was telling the truth about that. And if maybe people were feeling pressure inside the Mueller Investigation to do something to let people know they were making some progress. Meanwhile, lets talk about fusion gps. Steve thats right. And yesterday the president launched on twitter, a tweet storm, trying to shift the spotlight to Hillary Clinton, essentially saying that her funding that operation Opposition Research firm, fution g. P. S. Brian right. Steve why arent people looking at that so he started diveeght this. Ainsley the president said, this never seen such republican anger and unity as i have concerning the lack of investigation on clinton made fake dossier now 12 million. The yiewrm russia deal the 33,000 plus deleted emails and the comey fix and so much more. Instead, they look at phony trump russia collusion which does not exist. The democrats are using this terrible and bad for country witchhunt for evil politics but the republicans are fighting back like never before. There is so much guilt by the democrats and clinton and now the facts are pouring out. Do something. Brian who is fusion gps and why are they pushing so hard to hold on to their financial records . Well, this week, evidently, over the weekend they cut a deal with the House Intelligence Committee to reveal their financials, to find out how much they were being paid and who else was paying them. So one thing is abun dancely clear, the free beacon came out friday, thanks to byron york and said yeah, we were the ones who called fusion gps to take a look at two candidates, donald trump and one other. When it was clear that donald trump had won, we backetd off. Now all of a sudden we are being linked to some investigation by the democrats picked up. Said nothing they were doing had anything to do with the democrats had. There was no International Component to it. There was nobody looking into russia. Nobody hired Christopher Steele. We did open source background Opposition Research on the two frontrunners at the time. One of which was President Trump. When the free beacon said when he got it, i backed out of it. So then they go ahead and end up writing up to 12 million worth of checks to Christopher Steele and his organization to find out things on donald trump and were supposed to believe that john podesta knew nothing about it when his lawyer sitting next to him knew everything about it . That Hillary Clinton didnt know about it . How could you possibly prepare for a debate on International Topics and not know where some of this some of the attack plan is coming from . Steve because it was ultimately a law firm which hired fusion gps. You got that attorneyclient privilege thing you can look at the bank records dont have to say what they discussed. Ainsley not allowed to. Steve we may not know what they talked about. That kind of thing is off limits. Brian then there is that and then there is logic. If you are running an organization and 12 million has disappeared. Do you say who is this going to . What are we getting for this . And, the way i understand, it is when you do a campaign, you have got to break out your starbucks trips, your pizza delivery, everything that you are paying for has to be labeled. Mark elias and his law firm, 12 million or 9 million, whatever extraordinary figure, that is not okay. You have to break down how are writing those checks to. Ainsley thats the problem here. Thats what everyone is upset about. They were writing it as legal fees instead of Opposition Research. Steve perhaps his charge was okay here is as much money as you need. Go find as much dirt on donald trump as you can. It could be that simple. Brian right. Say that have you got. Steve dont have to. Its Opposition Research. Brian no, no, no. You have to break down. Steve they had written Legal Services thats why they are in hot water. Brian not enough. You have to break it out what you are doing. Because Legal Services is too broad. That is why all these rules exist. Steve right. They had to write Opposition Research they didnt they wrote Legal Services. Brian Christopher Steele 12 million. G. P. S. 12 million. Ainsley that didnt happen. Thats the problem. You are right. Hand it over toian who has headlines for us. Jillian good morning to you.

Steve newest question regarding that dossier on trump. What did former president barack obama know . A new report finds that his campaign organization, ofa, obama for america, paid nearly 1 million to that same law firm that funneled the money to fusion gps, the farm behind the dossier. Here to discuss the president of Judicial Watch tom fitton joins us from our nations capital. Tom, good morning to you. Good morning. Steve since april of 2016, ofa, obama for america, paid paid 972,000 to perkins coie, the same outfit that was giving the money to fusion g. P. S. What do you think thats about . Well, thats the question we want answered. The money, including a 700,000 chunk went over there around the time fusion gps began working for Hillary Clintons campaign and the Democratic National committee to find dirt on President Trump or president elect trump or candidate trump by traveling to russia and colluding with the russians. Steve umhuh. President obama had it in for President Trump then at the time the candidate. He campaigned so close so much for president well, Hillary Clinton, that it hadnt been done like that in 100 years. And, look, then you had the dossier being used by the obama fbi, the Obama Justice department. Maybe the obama cia to target team trump. You got questions whether obama the politician knew as a result of his running the dnc and Political Organization and these payments and, of course, what obama the president knew. Either way, the questions need to be answered. Steve you want to know what did now former president barack obama know about the dossier and all this stuff, right . Yes. I think its a question we need answered because if the dossier, which is a political document created to destroy President Trump or the candidate trump was used by his fbi and fbi and cia, did they know that this was nothing but a political attack on trump . And they shouldnt really have anything to do with it . Steve yeah, tom, it sounds like the dossier was used to justify unmasking a number of names. Well, we dont know what it was justified to do. It might have been justified it might have been justified to use the cia, the fbi, nsa to spy on team trump. Thats the most disconcerning thing. Did they use this to go after team trump and spy and, of course, the unmasking came and properly afterwards. Thirdly, are we in the midst of a major criminal investigation against the president of the United States as a result of this dodgy dossier which was a political hit job on mr. Trump . Steve right. All good questions. We just need some good answers. Tom fitton. Maybe mr. Mueller can provide the answers. We asked the questions of the fbi and justice department. These arent secrets. We can get the answers if the deep state would just answer the questions. Steve more good question, when with are we going to hear from him. Tom fitton, thank you very much for joining us live.
