It. [cheers and applause] tonight we celebrate regaining our voice and our vote in the great business of governing this country. You know we are still fighting the fight. Its not over yet. Dont give up and we will keep it up. Were going to win it. Harris mollie line in p. A. Outside of pittsburgh, mollie . Harris, as you mentioned, state rep rick saccone vowing to fight on. The National Party has his back. The Communications Director for the National RepublicanCongressional Committee matt gore monday saying we are absolutely not conceding, the nrcc is waiting for provisional ballots to be counted by friday. And a recount has not been ruled out. Did i speak with one attorney on the ground here he said he was asked by the saccone camp to watch the overnight count of absentee ballots going on in washington county. Ultimately it was the Democrat Conor Lamb who picked up the votes that evening. The process was far from perfect. More broadly he is hearing of multiple irregularities and would not be surprised to see some legal challenged in the coming days. Meanwhile the Democratic Victory in this once relinably red district is reverb rating in washington. Its 20point trump district. You know, thats a wakeup call. It sure is. I think in some ways it was a wakeup call but i wouldnt go any further than that. A wakeup call, harris. A lot of eyes will be looking to the mid terms after this. But, regardless of who is declared a winner in this race, this district will soon no longer exist. And either of these candidates and not for that matter many candidates across the state when they run in may will be running in newly redrawn districts. Thats because the state Supreme Court has released a new map after ruling in a gerrymandering case that the old one was unfair as drawn by the g. O. P. Legislature. Republicans may very well be mounting a legal challenge to that as well. A lot of busy days ahead in pennsylvania courtrooms. Harris . Harris definitely. Thank you very much, mollie line. And we will see you hopefully with the vote count and an update soon. Our next guest knows or my first guest knows pennsylvanias 18th inside and out. The treasurer of state g. O. P. And chair of the allegheny republican committee. We are in a squeaker right now. Tell me about whats happening inside your state and how this went last night. The turnout so on and so forth . The turnout was extremely high, haste, las harris, last n. The race hasnt been officially called even though conor lamb has declared victory. Rick saccone has been great candidate and his record has been outstanding especially in comparison to his opponent. He has served in the air force. He has been in north korea. He has served in the state house for 8 years. He teaches at a university. He has been, you know, international business, so his record is outstanding in comparison to his opponent. The issue, i think last night in addition to, you know, conor lamb claims huge union turnout in his support was the fact that i think lamb basically ran as a republican. And the phrase that i would like to say is heres a lamb in republican clothing. Lamb says is he prolife, progun. You know, pittsburgh the region is, you know, steel, coal, he says is he all of that i do not think that conor lamb will deliver once he gets elected in all those facets. Harris yeah, we will be watching to see how he actually votes. Thats an excellent point. I want to go back to though and some republicans have not said that rick saccone was all that great of a candidate. Im kind of surprised to hear you say it in such strong way, yet, the money didnt follow that candidate from the republican party. Why did it take so long to get the funding and the support that saccone needed until, of course, the president came and started moving the needle . You know what rick saccone has been a fantastic candidate, harris. Harris why not put money behind him earlier on . And thats where the national groupings needed to come in and it took a little late for the National Groups to come in but rick saccone is perfect candidate. He speaks his mind. And what he says is what he delivers on. And thats the difference between him and conor lamb. Unfortunately, i think the voters were confused in this case and thats possibly the reason why the money was also like as you are saying going to conor lamb. But rick saccone and i have known him personally for a number of years. And is he absolutely the most honest man with integrity and he ran the race thats true to who he is. Harris interesting. Are you in favor of a recount at this point . Its not mandatory even though its very, very squeaky close, but you can petition for it in that state. Your thoughts . Yeah, thig my thoughts are te recount is likely to happen. Very tight margin here, its 600 also like you said. There are several, you know, provisional ballots, overseas ballots yet to be counted. So my expectation would be that there would be a recount, harris. Harris can you talk to me about voter intensity among republicans on the ground . You say all eyes on pennsylvania and we meant it. You talk about a turnout. We dont necessarily know who the turnout will benefit in the end, but you had a lot of people get out. Yeah, we had a lot of people get out yesterday. Been doing this for a fairly long time. Its been exceptional for a special election. And the situation was in the case of conor lamb, as he alluded credit to is the union came out in droves. And, to me, if this was the primary, we would have seen a very strong support for rick saccone because all the traditional trump voters were lock step with Rick Saccones policies. And its unfortunate this was a special election. I think it will be completely different if this was a primary. Harris interesting. Well, you got a president ial visit over the weekend and you saw the needles kind of start to move as the races always get closer but certainly when you have somebody who had a 20point lead on hillary clinton, during the general election, d. Raaja, thank you very much from the state of pennsylvania. Thank you for your time. Thank you, harris. Harris well break in with breaking news right now. I told you just moments ago some things were happening. We have just learned the president has offered the job of top Economic Advisor to larry kudlow, the tv host would replace gary cohn of the director of the National Economic counsel. As President Trump fired Rex Tillerson as secretary of state, it appeared there could be wider staffing shakeup in the works. Fox news is confirming the president is considering getting rid of the veteran and replacing, obviously, the vernal Affairs SecretaryDavid Shulkin, potentially next. Cnn is now reporting National Security advisor h. R. Mcmaster is poised to leave soon as well. This as there is new reaction to Rex Tillersons exit. Peter doocy is awaiting the president s arrival in st. Louis, missouri with the latest. Big breaking news at the top of the hour is a man that the president called a globalist as he was leaving, gary cohn has now been replaced. Peter . Right, harris. As the president heads here to st. Louis to talk up his tax reform bill, he is now taking inventory of his cabinet and top level staffers and we understanding that just in the last few hours he has offered the job of director at the National Economic counsel to larry kudlow that is the former cnbc post. The president has been speaking very favorable up the last couple of days especially because he likes to remind reporters who ask questions about it kudlow has been a longtime supporter of the president dating back to his days as a candidate or even just dating back to when he was talking about becoming a candidate. But that is not the only change that could be coming. Top of the list of who could be next now that the secretary of state Rex Tillerson has been dismissed, v. A. Secretary David Shulkin who has not been able to move past accusations that he has been misusing taxpayer money or Department Staffers for things like family trips to europe or personal errands. And white house sources have indicated to fox news that Energy Secretary rick perry has been mentioned as a possibility as a replacement for shulkin at the v. A. Although the president and perry had lunch two days ago and there was apparently never a job offer or gauge of interest. Someone else who cannot shake swirling rumors about a west wing exit the National Security advisor h. R. Mcmaster back a few weeks ago when the chief Economic Advisor gary cohn resigned the white house which generally doesnt go too indepth with Personnel Matters pushed back against reports that mac master was next out the door. Told reporters at the time that mcmaster would not be leaving this month or next month. Kelly said mcmaster still had the president s confidence. Then there is kelly himself. Reports of internal uproar over the way that kelly handled the dismissal of top aide rob porter once allegations seemed to have surfaced seemed to have subsided now. The president is clearly looking over peoples shoulders to see who may be able to serve him better. I have gotten to know a lot of people very well over the last year. And im really at a point where we are getting very close to having the cabinet and other things that i want. And today the president is trying to find himself a new ally potentially in the senate. After he is done here at boeing for a round table talking about tax reform, he is going to head to a nearby hotel for a fund raiser on behalf of the top tier republican challenge tore democratic incumbent senator clair mccaskill. He is fundraising for the states attorney general josh holly. It is several months before there is even a primary but the president has selected holly as his favorite. He sees him as the best choice to unseat mccaskill and the state that the president won by 19 points in 2016. Harris . Harris you know, you mentioned and we saw from the president cabinet and other things. This is kind of what a ceo does. Also on the list, i was just noticing, when you talk about inappropriate use of funds, just on this breaking news pointed, peter, you have got hud secretary dr. Ben carson who is also dealing with some allegations of something similar as well. I will give you the last word. Right. And essentially, the last thing that these folks want is to have happen to them what happened to the former hhs secretary tom price which is where there are a lot of headlines in prices case about taking too many private jet trips when there were commercial flights available. And then eventually the president sorrowed and said sout think that was a good idea and ended up with resignation. Last thing the president want even if he doesnt have a good taste for what theyre doing private solid to have him come out publicly like did he in the case of tom price and say that he disagrees with the way that they have been spending taxpayer money and so far that has not happened. Harris and the president knows what he wants. Again, its like a ceo. He lands in st. Louis, missouri to meet with people at boeing. He is going to talk all about tax cuts and talk about the economy, something that he is trying to focus on now with a brand new Economic Advisor that he would like to see larry kudlow replacing gary cohn. Peter doocy, thank you for the breaking news a confirmation battle is looming over the president s nominees over the replacement of secretary of state Rex Tillerson and the cia director. Republican senator rand paul today held a News Conference vowing to block both of the president s choices. The senator will join me live coming up and the House Intelligence Committee ranking democrat adam schiff going after republicans decision to end the Russia Collusion Investigation saying the probe is incomplete. Well get reaction from house intel member bra Brad Wenstrup as Ohio Republican jim jordan is pushing back against adam schiff. There are still investigations going on. We are still looking at information and trying to get answers to key questions in the house judiciary committee. There is still the Senate Investigation going on.

For a free sample call 1877gettena. Harris there is growing backlash this hour from democrats over the decision by republicans on the House Intelligence Committee to end their russia investigation. Ranking member adam schiff now wants to keep the investigation going. He says republicans finding that there was no collusion between russia and the Trump Campaign is wrong. Watch. That was a terrible disservice to the country. And the american people. And represented a reneging on the commitment that was made at the outset of the investigation to follow the facts wherever they lead. The majority wishes to contest even the fact that the russians were trying to help one candidate and hurt the other. It represents to me the completeness of their capitulation to the white house. Harris congressman Brad Wenstrup is a republican who serves on the house Intel Committee. So glad to have you along today. Thank you. Harris talk to me about how the two sides are seeing it now. No one is saying that there was no russian meddling. I dont know what adam schiff was talking about. We were saying that each before the election. Long before the election that russians are trying to meddle. They have been doing it since the soviet union that was nothing new. There wasnt much of a response from the Previous Administration to look into it until after of course the election took place. Our investigation, i think we conducted the very professionally. We have looked at over 300,000 documents over 14 months. And we have interviewed 73 people. So we have been very thorough. But our oversight is never really finished. And so if there is some new evidence that comes forward or something that we need to engage with then we too that. So im really not sure where mr. Schiff is going with that. And just remember that there are people that have been saying for the last 14 months that we have evidence of collusion and, yet, we have not seen that so, it is pretty interesting. These comments are being made. And we have stuck to the dynamics of what this investigation was about. Harris you know whats really interesting . When you see adam schiff and, you know, i dont know if you have seen it and we can certainly roll it when he is asked about whether if they were to flip the house and suddenly be in charge of everything, whether he would still push this hard for the investigation. Watch this. If the majority in the Congress Changes hands, we have to evaluate where is the investigation at that point. What has the senate been allowed to do. What has the special counsel been allowed to do. Harris whoa. So when its in your hands you are lukewarm . Well, yeah. I mean, i can tell you, harris, from the getgo that i took this from the approach that we were interested in finding the truth about things. And i dont care if you are republican or democrat, you are looking at trying to find the truth and do a thorough investigation. Thats what should be taking place. Again, i think there is those that would like to have this just go on and on and on probably for political purposes. But i think we have reached the point where we have done it thoroughly. And we are ready to move on and present our case. Harris can they continue on without you guys . Because im confused about what he says well, we would have to take a look at where the investigation stands. Its over. Yeah. And, you know, it was interesting today because for the last 14 months, we have had cameras outside of the Intel Committee every day and immediately after every interview or whatever, mr. Schiff made his way to the cameras. Today they werent there. If he has got something new to bring to the committee, bring it to us. Because we are interested in getting to the truth. And having justice. But we have exhausted this in my opinion. We have been very thorough. Our role is to consider oversight. That doesnt finish. That doesnt go away. Bring me something new and maybe well talk some more. Harris congressman wenstrup saying bring it what are you saying to those members of your own Political Party like trey gowdy and oth
