We won and they lost. The fact is, the press has destroyed themselves because they went too far. Instead of being subtle and smart they used the hatchet and the people sought right from the beginning. Heres more. Peter is spending the weekend near his golf course. Did they say anything threatening about journalists in this video. He doesnt say anything, laura. What you see is a choreographed scene from wrestlemania three in 2007 were President Trump body slams. [inaudible] but cnn said they see this as a threat. They said its a sad day when President Trump encourages violence against reporters. Sarah Huckabee Sanders said he had never done so. A top official who deals with threats all the time does not think this wwe clip qualifies as one. I think no one would perceive that as a threat. I think he is the not been away on cable platforms that he has a right to respond to and he does that regularly. More than 220,000 people have retweeted the posting from this morning. Is there any evidence that speech like this is derailing his agenda . A lot of people are saying there is. What is the word there . The word from the president s legislative director is that there is no evidence of that. In fact, he said twitter has been a critical tool to his success ever since he got into politics. I dont call during the president ial campaign that many people being excited that he won the campaign. Approval rating, congressional Approval Rating is around 11 or 12 right now. It does not sound like this tweet will change the way republicans in the senate are going to go about their busine business. Its not going to do any good for me or anyone else to comment on thing we might not like about his twitter behavior. The best thing we can do when we want to elevate civil dialogue in our political discourse is to do whatever we can to make sure we treat others kindly, with dignity and respect. When the president gets hit, he heads back harder. It appears thats what and seeing play out on clutter this long weekend. Thank you so much for that report. Former trump advisor is speaking out on media buzz about the now retracted cnn story linking him to a russian investor. Cnn said you had a secret meeting with an executive from russia. Super falls. He iran into me at a restaurant. I have known him because ive gone there for the last ten years ive shaken his hand before. After i made the speech about the president s economic it agenda, that evening i was at a table with my colleagues and he came over and said hello. I stood up and talk to him for about 3 5 minutes. He left and somebody took a picture of that and set a senior trump official was taking to the russians. It wasnt until it was clear to me that there was uncertainty inside the organization about the what the facts were that i made another followup phone call and i said guys, listen, im not under investigation. Ive done nothing wrong. Like you have clear this up if you dont cleared up i have to take action to protect myself and my reputation which i also think its fair. Three journalists resigned from the network after they pulled the story. Cnn did apologizing it didnt meet their editorial requirements. He did accept their apology. We move on to the next story when the senate gets back from its fourth of july holiday recess. The talk of the hill will be healthcare. The idea of repealing now and replacing later getting promoted by President Trump and some senators. I think it could still be done concurrently. I dont think the moderates will vote for a clean repeal i must they have some other bill going on simultaneously. Work with us democrats were willing to meet you in the middle. Im the most moderate person theyre going to find in the senate thats willing to look down and set down and work on anything in a more progressive manner that basically fixes the problems that we have. Weve got garrett live. Is this idea of repeal and replace getting any traction on capitol hill this weekend . It is among some of the more conservative senators. Its an idea that the white house has been pushing out this week as well. Republicans easy pass the bill to repeal back in 2015 but that was when the new president obama was going to veto it. This time it would be for real. One of the concerns is that if lawmakers repealed obamacare without having a replacemen pla, that uncertainty could create chaos in the Insurance Market and the economy as a whole. At this point, conservatives argue the current plan isnt getting closer to passing so they may need to try something else. Politically we can get that done, then what we ought to do is get back to what ive been suggesting for the past six months which is to push full repeal and have a stepbystep process to decide what comes next. I think its easier. Sometimes when you want to much into one piece of legislation you do mid success in a secure thats where we are today. If republicans cant repeal obamacare on their own, a number of moderate democrats have suggested they be willing to work with them on a replacement plan. Thats an area that would be much further down the road than the current goal. While republicans are deeply bating their health care plan, Bernie Sanders is preparing one of his own. No surprise here, though two plans are nothing alike. Senator sanders said his plan is the answer to americas Failing Health care system and its called medicare for all. It would change medicare so that every person in the country would be eligible for coverage. Here he is on cnn state of the union. Medicare for all is an expansion of medicare. Its not just the seniors but for everybody. We will be saving middleclass families substantial sums of money and it will guarantee healthcare to every man woman and child in this country. This is what i think we should do in the short term. Shortterm you need a public option 50 states so if people are not happy with their private insurance they can get a public option. This idea was part of his campaign on his platform. He said he plans to formally introduce his proposal as soon as the debate over the gop current bill wraps up. What we still dont know is exactly how he plans to pay for all of that. Always interesting, thank you so much. We will talk much more about all of this with our Political Panel little later on. Folks across the country are getting ready to celebrate our nations birthday and this fourth of july, there will be extra security in places all over the u. S.

He joins us live to talk more about his experience. Welcome. Thank you. We just want to get to the basics. Lets start with your thoughts on how it went. This is a huge event for you. It was an electric evening. The room was filled at the Kennedy Center with President Trumps most argued supporters. Veterans and evangelical christians. He spent some time praising veterans for their role in protecting our freedom. He also spent a lot of time talking about our most important freedom, the free exercise of faith. Laura, i think the line that got the most thunderous ovation was when he said, as long as i am president , nobody will prevent you from practicing your faith or preaching what is in your heart. For many christians who have felt like their faith has been under attack for decades, these were welcomed words. You said hes made good moves for religious freedom. What has he done for all religions . He is certainly intent on protecting the religious freedoms of all americans. Ive talked to him many times over the last few years about that. A pinky also realizes that evangelical christians have been marginalized. One of the things he asked last night which was so basic is why is it that we cant pray publicly at Football Games in schools any longer. Why is that . For 180 years the public display of faith was fine but suddenly the past 16 years, its been deemed unconstitutional. Did the constitution change . Of course not. What has happened is weve allowed liberals to pervert the First Amendment and i believe the president understands that and wants to change that. Last night was an important night for veterans at the rally and around the country. The president did take time out from banking the veterans to go after the media at this event. We want you to listen to a pie piece. The fake media is trying to silence us, but we will not let them. The people know the truth. The fake media tried to stop us from going to the white house, but im president and they are not. All right. What did you think of that moment. Look, my mother was a celebrated journalism teacher, i grew up with his respect for the press, but i think many in the media have lost their objectivity about this preside president. They are becoming meaner and meaner and their criticism of him and i think what is happened is donald trump is committed the sin with the media and that is he has made them irrelevant. By using social media he has cut out the middleman and is connecting directly with people and i think the media cant forgive him for it. Moving forward, what more do you hope to hear from the president on religious freedom . Obviously a very important topic to you and many others. I think the most important thing the president can continue to do is to appoint conservative justices to the Supreme Court and judges at the federal court level who will interpret the law according to what the constitution actually says and not by what liberals wish it said. I can tell you, this president is intent on pursuing his agenda and that is something his enemies will never forgive him of. Thank you so much for spending time with us. We appreciate it.
