Rosenstein. Congressman andy biggs tells us what to expect. The clock is ticking on the midnight deadline in portland were antiac protesters have been given eviction notices. As the abolish i. C. E. Movement hits a new low with a makeshift antitrump guillotine. Hello and welcome to fox news night. I am Shannon Bream in washingto washington. Its been called an important First Step Towards fulfilling the commitment made by kim jong un at the june 12 singapore summit. New commercial satellite imagery of north koreas main lodge facility since 2012 indicates that the north has begun dismantling key operations. President trump says he appreciates that. Oh president says hes open to a new real deal cults quote with iran. Kristin fisher tracking the latest Foreign Policy news. Two days after threatening iran with the all caps tweet and two months after pulling out of the iran nuclear deal, President Trump now says hes ready to make a new deal with tehran. The Trump Administration is on the attack. National security advisor john bolton said if iran does anything wrong, it will pay price like you countries have ever paid before. The secretary of state accuses the Supreme Leader of profiting from a 95 95 billion hedge fud and President Trump to fund his iranian counterpart in a tweet heard round the world. To iranian president rouhani never, ever threaten the United States again or you will suffer consequences the likes of which few throughout history have ever suffered before. When asked today if mr. Trump was inciting war with iran, the White House Press secretary said if anybody is inciting anything, look no further than iran. Whats at the present or not for the remarks throughout the u. S. Plan to snapback sanctions on irans oil empire. Translator do not play with the lions tail or else you will regret it. It will bring your eternal regret. Democrats and some republicans argue its all a distraction to move our eyes away from russia. The speech that rouhani seemed to be the same speech they always give. I dont know what in particular provoked this response. Behind the seats, the Trump Administration has been working for some time to erode support for iran later. That includes lodging a new media outlet to try to help iranians get around internet censorship. Not only television but radio, digital, social media format so that the ordinary iranians inside iran and around the globe could know that america stands with them. Back to some of these agreements are potential agreements with north korea come on other things to be watching for a little bit later this week is the possibility that some of the remains of fallen servicemen and women from back in the korean war, there was a probability that there remains could be coming back to the United States. As early as friday. That date, shannon, very important for this fridays anniversary of the signing of the armistice that ended the korean war. Shannon very significant. Kristin fisher, thank you very much. The Associated Press defining the trump doctrine as doctrine as claiming matchless strength, and counterpunch harder than you are hit. Working with north korea and iran . Fox news Senior Analyst general jack keane joins us. Great to have you with us. On the satellite imagery photos of north korea dismantling one site in particular, the north, New York Times called it encouraging sign her people who want the president to succeed here. But added many analysts say north korea will not have started denuclearizing until it begins dismantling its nuclear weapons. North korea has not distorted disposing its fissile material or nuclear facilities. Being couched as a good first step. A long way to go. They have taken on a nuclear test facility. We saw them blow it up. They possibly could reconstitute it if they want to do. This is a rocket test site and a missile test site, particularly for rockets, and it deals with liquid fuel. The most advanced rockets and missiles they have are solid fuel. And you dont have to put it on a launch pad and prepare it, so it doesnt have a signature. So yes, this is a step in the right direction. I totally agree we should be encouraged by it. Something secretary pompeo negotiated with, i am sure President Trump reinforced at the summit that he had. But its not denuclearization. And you mentioned it in your introduction. I think they have to get im not certain they even know from the North Koreans the identity or location of all of the sites yet. Would want to go out and verify that. We have some information on that ourselves obviously and intelligent services. And i think another thing has happened here. I believe the administration is making an adjustment and heres the adjustment they are making. I think they really wanted to get this all down on a couple years before the end of the trump first term. North koreans are not moving on that time schedule and i think we have adjusted somewhat to the North Koreans. The North Koreans want to go slow. They want to build up trust. They want to have a relationship. They can be giving us at the end of the day, we get nothing anyway. But i think we have made that adjustment to that schedule. We will see what the next step is. Maybe read. Maybe repatriate the remains. Laura the tough thing is the idea of being in able to inspect the sites are having verification. Its been a critique of the iran deal. The president today talking about what he wants to have happen with iran after the backandforth on twitter. We are ready to make a real deal, not the deal that was done by the Previous Administration which was a disaster. Shannon he says he wants a real deal. Interestingly in a piece Edward Morrissey wrote, he talked about the fact that these are two very different regimes we are dealing with. He said the kim regime north korea is brutal and erratic but it has one primary rational goal survival. The shiite extremists in charge of iran, at least publicly subscribed to an apocalyptic vision about the 12th imam of islam. Iran might choose were over negotiation on the basis of basis of theocratics premises. North korea wants to survive. Kim wants to survive. In many ways, their people in iran who want to provoke what they see apocalypse. Im not sure of that. I think the mullahs at the end of the day, they have committed to a political ideology to be sure. They camouflage it in a religion. They are ambitious, and they have been successful. 38 years they have been in power and frankly, no republican or democratic president has ever truly push back on them in any consequential way and almost 38 years. Why . They always use proxies to carry out their dirty work. And that paralyzed decisionmakers. It gives you a reason not to have to act. Because they are not using their forces directly. So they own lebanon. They have out syria. They have undue influence in iraq. They started another civil war in yemen. All to dominate and control the middle east. All of that said, this president has taken iran on in a way that no other president has. Critics dont give him any credit for it. The fact is they have. I do believe that with the sanctions that will come next month, the primary sanctions, and three months later, the secondary sanctions, as a result of pulling out of the nuclear deal, given the fact that irans economy is already struggling. The currency is in the tank. They are overstretched in those four countries that just to you. In the population is restful because restless because of the pressure thats being put on them economically. I think theyre right to come back to the table and work out some kind of negotiated deal. Shannon interesting to see secretary pompeo speaking directly to the iranian people in his speech this weekend. Theres two different factions were talking about. The leaders and the people. They want something entirely different. Great to have your expertise. Cnn playing what it calls secret recordings between then candidate donald trump and his then attorney Michael Cohen. The tapes were provided by cohens now lawyer lanny davis, long known for is tied to the clintons. Rudy Rudy Giuliani saying the recording vindicates the president. Trace gallagher with what we know so far. You mentioned the lanny davis connection. He was on who provided the tape to cnn. The recording is from september 2016 between cohen and then president ial candidate donald trump where the two men are reportedly discussing buying the rights to the story of an alleged affair years earlier between playboy model Karen Mcdougal and trump. In the recording, cohen says he needs to open up a company for the transfer of all that information regarding our friend david. Which is likely a reference to the head of American Media which owned the national enquirer. Listen closely because the tape is modeled. Here is part it. Will have to pay. Pay the cash. You here it is very muddled and its unclear if the president is saying they should or should not pay with cash. He is saying dont pay with cash. Rudy giuliani insistent Michael Cohen was suggesting to pay in cash. Here is what giuliani said. The transcript makes it quite clear at the end that President Trump says dont pay with cash. Cohen interrupts and says no, no, no. Ive got it. Then you here distinctly, if you slow it down, check. And then cohen followed with no, no, no and quickly cuts off the tape. Giuliani has maintained mr. Trump was trying to keep this whole thing on the up and up. Lanny davis who provided the tape to cnn seemed to be amused by giulianis statement saying the truth is on Michael Cohen side, and that only drug dealers and mobsters pay with cash. Tonight Alan Dershowitz told Laura Ingraham that regardless of what was set on the tape, there is nothing nefarious here. Watch him. The big picture is a, theres nothing on the tape that suggests any kind of crime. B, what is strongly suggested by the prior interview by lanny davis is that cohen has made his decision. He is going to cooperate with the prosecutors. Hes going to flip. Hes going to try to get immunity, and hes going to testify against donald trump. Whether he has anything to say thats incriminating is a real question. The lawyer for the Trump Organization also denies trump was offering to pay cash, saying there was no transaction, saying that any payment to a Large Company by American Media would be accompanied by a lot of paperwork, including an agreement of sale which has not been produced. Shannon Trace Gallagher with the very latest. Thank you. Fresh on the heels of the revelations from the fisa court, and the words involving former trump advisor carter page, house conservatives reportedly considering fours saying even without paul ryans blessing, eight contempt of congress vote. The target Deputy Attorney general robert rubenstein. Arizona republican congressman andy biggs joins us. Deputy attorney general has addressed whether or not he thinks if hes in any danger of contact. Heres what he Senate Hearing last month. Am working with a really superb team, the best lawyers in the country. We are not in contempt of this congress. We are not going to be in contempt of this congress. Shannon he is not worried. This loving leadership doesnt sound like there onto. Whats the goal . Hes not worried because we have done nothing. He has extended every deadline. He has the walked things. We have documents we requested a year ago. We have received documents that are so heavily redacted to make them unintelligible. So why would he think he is in contempt because we are the ones that have been held in contempt by him. I think at some point you have to protect the institution. You have to say congress has got oversight responsibility, and maybe we ought to exercise it. One of the things we could do is we can hold him contempt or we could move on and say maybe you should be impeached. Maybe you shouldnt be in office any further. As the weathers going to be meeting tomorrow. Six g. O. P. Lawmakers will meet with folks from the doj discussing turning over more documents. Do you think there will be progress . The speaker has indicated there are things that are coming along. There may be progress but whats progress when you shouldve had these documents to us seven months ago and youre going to slow walk them some more. We havent seen the scope letter in an unredacted form. There is so much information thats been withheld at almost every time we have a hearing, i happened to be at the hearing rosens giants head im in good shape. Every time we have a hearing, its likely find out something more. Where did that come from . How come we are just finding out now . Shannon do you feel like there are times you dont know what you dont know that prohibits your ability to ask for things . Youre absolutely right. Thats why i think its been dragged out so long. We get something here and we say that leads to a few more questions. They dripped something out for us and its time to say enough is enough. Shannon in the political article talking about this, potentially trying to do this and run resolution, they say the Justice Department has emphasized that it has made unprecedented disclosures of sensitive material to lawmakers. Even at times bypassing the historical guardrails for sharing information connected to an ongoing investigation. True or false . I am not sure if its true or false but i know its something they are spinning to say we have been perfectly compliant. Then where are the rest of the documents . If youre going to go over the guardrails that you say you are, why not give us the documents then . Why not let us see them . If we need to go to a topsecret room, let us go there and we will look at them there. Its not happening. Shannon do you think they are worried about leaks from either side, because there been accusations that democrats and republicans have leaked things that are beneficial to their side of the argument. In washington, d. C. , everyone should always be concerned about leaks. That something you have to live with. But i mean, look, we find there is additional witnesses from time to time that we need to talk to. Its all because its been dripped out and they havent provided us with the information necessary for us to conduct our oversight investigation. Thats a real problem. Shannon a number of republicans are worried democrats will retake the house in the fall and this comes to a screeching halt and you wont be able to get more information beyond that point. We will see how the meeting goes tomorrow. Congressman, thank you for coming in. Stick around for senator John Kennedys fox news night debut fresh off i meet and greet with Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. Senator kennedy sounding off on the white house proposal to revoke security clearances. I havent determine whether you could or should revoke somebody security clearance for being a butthead.

He was tapped by President Trump to replace anthony kennedy. Lawmakers are demanding the release of a trove of documents relating to kavanaughs past White House Service under president bush. One senator who did meet today with the nominee, john kennedy of louisiana. The Senate Judiciary Committee Member joins us now. Great to have you with us.
