Exwives and exgirlfriend. How does the fbi fit into that. We just learned some very interesting if not completely clear information from the head of the fbi director. I want to bring in chris cillizza, who is here with me to discuss this. There is a lot to unpack here from Russian Meddling in the election and how that feaffects the midterms coming up. The timeline had it comes to rob porter, you know what, pause for a moment, chris, lets return to the testimony at the Senate Intelligence committee. Theyre out in the community, and i can tell you the Community Values what they do on the island. Thank you. And an oped by a number of former intelligence analysts call the nunes memo and the release, quote, one of the worst cases of politization of intelligence in modern american history, unquote. You said you had concerns about that memo. I know you cant get into the
sure i stay on the unclassified side. We have seen intentions to have an impact on the next election cycle here. Director co
That he basically hadnt read the whole interview and the reporter said no, i did include that stuff. But that is by far not the most important part of what we heard from the two of them. It is striking the reversal that we saw from the president on every front except for immigration. Reporter thats right. I think a lot of people are referring to this as damage control. Im not sure if that is what it is, but i do certainly have whiplash because just 24 hours ago, this interview was coming out last night about 12 hours ago and this president blasting theresa may on her own turf in his own words, in an Audio Recording that you can hear the president make these remarks himself. And he is saying that it is not true, he did not criticize her when in fact we all realize that he did, saying she didnt take his advice for leaving the European Union for brexit. And saying that one of her greatest political rivals Boris Johnson would be good at her

Wolf Blitzer looks at politics, breaking news and international stories. Historically, because a lot of our viewers will remember. When you and bob woodward were working on the watergate related stories, was president nixon as anxious publicly during your reporting as we now see this president being very anxious, deeply concerned about the Mueller Probe . First, i think what were seeing is more than anxiety on the part of donald trump. We are seeing a president who is behaving and acting unhinged. Nixon did not really publicly act unhinged, but i think we need to look at something larger. That is that in watergate, the system worked. The president of the United States did not publicly declare the press an enemy of the people and seek to undermine the First Amendment and the very legitimacy of what the press did, though he did try to make our conduct an issue, or the issue in watergate, rather than his own conduct. Can share my own personal perspective. Ive certainly received my fair sh
You have been watching an extraordinary press briefing, im Brooke Baldwin, youre watching cnn. That was a true show of force right before the president begins his ten day summer vacation. You have these different federal intelligence chiefs stand he at the podium warning of russian interference both about past and upcoming u. S. Elections. To assure americans that the Trump Administration is actively confronting those Cyber Security threats. We have subsequently made the determination to make this a top priority that it doesnt happen again. Were throwing everything at it and we will have and will be discussing that here today. Relative to my discussions with the president on whatever issue it is, those i do noted go public with that. I dont think thats the right,
proper thing to do. Our focus here today is to tell the American People we acknowledge the threat. It is real. It is continuing. And were doing everything we can to have a legitimate election that the American People can have
