Big question for the world tonight. Thanks for joining us. You can watch us any time, anywhere on cnn go. Have a good weekend. See you monday. Ac 360 begins right now. Good evening. We begin with more startling headlines from President Trump. In just a last four days, hes threatened north korea with fire and fury, said maybe that wasnt enough of a threat. Said American Forces are Locked And Loaded and late today he said even more. Appearing this morning outside his new jersey golf club, the president went before reporters. When he was over, he raised the possibility of u. S. Military action in venezuela and renews his warnings to north korea. Nobody loves a peaceful solution better than President Trump, that i can tell you. Hopefully it will all work out. But this has been going on for many years. It would have been a lot easier to solve this years ago before they were in the position that theyre in. But we will see what happens. We think that lots of good things could happen, and we

Operators this week, but and i called one individual usually pretty connected and said any upcoming attacks that we dont know about . Have you run the traps as well . Well, ive been focusing on the mueller trump russia news tonight, brian, but its just so remarkable that there are so many possibilities here because of the posture of this administration. North korea, iran, yemen. Were taking Military Action in countries around the world where we havent been before. You know, theyre really leaning on the balls of their feet here in terms of the military and people are wondering, you know, what could be next. Yeah. I think thats why people were so concerned when they backed away and looked at the substance of what the president said tonight. Counselor, help us turn the corner into the mueller investigation. So muellers associates have found the author of the dossier. We learn this a day after there were complaints in the senate that they havent found, nor is he cooperating with them. Does

Main event is now over. So that does it for us from hamburg tonight. Rachel will be back on monday, and i will see you again next friday live from iraq where we will take you to the front lines for the final push to drive isis out of the city of mosul. Now its time for the last good evening, richard. Thank you for all that reporting. But you go, i do want to ask you given everything, do you think putin got what he wanted out of President Trump today . I think he absolutely got what he wanted. I think he came in with this intention to have a long meeting. I think he wanted to overwhelm the president , presenting him lots of options, lots of things they could discuss, put some meat on the table for them to start digging right into it and hoping this will lead to more discussions, more followon, and a tighter relationship. Interesting. Richard engel, thank you very much. Absolutely. I am ari melber live in new

Part of the thing that is worrying to me is were starting to see everything through the prism of heres another twitter scandal, heres another bit of the crazy. How crazy. Youre talking about somebody who has more access to information about threats to america than almost any human being on earth, Senator Corker, saying hes afraid of world war iii, to the paper of record for the country. That should be a full stop, all traffic comes to a halt moment. Because this is a cry for help for the country. And yet but it doesnt come until after donald trump personally insults him on
