operating. john podesta said one of the eras of justice under the post hoover. the way it was trending regardless. no press conference october 27th i think trump still wins on policies and his message and the fact that he outhustled her so much in the last month. ainsley: maybe you are it right. we heard hillary side they are blaming comey because she didn t win. maybe you are right maybe he would have won anyway. steve: maybe mr. comey is being so cagey because he is under restrictions about what he can and cannot say about open investigations. meanwhile, speaking of open investigations, you know the storm daniel michael cohen thing. yesterday, cohen went before judge kemba wood here in new york city. what they want is he would like to see a special master, somebody else, another set of eyes, other than the government look all the documents seized from michael cohen. it was revealed yesterday essentially since 2017 michael cohen, according to the new york times, has
yesterday was a surprise. steve: yesterday michael cohen had a day in court in front of judge kemba wood he wants a special master to lay eyes on all the documents and tapes if there are any that were seized. i agree with him. i also agree with the president that it should be a special master or judge wood herself. it should not be a team of federal prosecutors. even though the rules say it can be a team of federal prosecutors separate and distinct from the team that is prosecuting him. as a result of what judge wood did yesterday, when she ordered the fbi to make copies of everything, the electronic democrat tapped a the paper data, which is going to take a couple weeks, give one set of copies to the president s lawyers and one set of copies to mr. cohen s lawyers. they will argue about what s privileged and what s not. she inadvertently. maybe not inadvertently exposed the privilege. in order for the government to argue about whether a document is privileged, it has to have at docu
they never involved any matter between me or third party, a third group at all. i never asked michael cohen to bring this proceeding on my behalf. i have no personal interest in this legal matter. that s all there is. nothing more. so maybe the media can try and start focusing in on the biggest abuse of power scandal in this country or maybe the forgotten men and women in this country. brian: basically sean s name was brought up. people said what type of linkage is there? there is absolutely no link canal ago tom fitton has. sean hannity s name was leaked out. the reason for that for michael cohen to go in there yesterday and the president have attorneys represent him, they wanted the first look at hits documents. they didn t get it. so the other side will get their first look. and then about a month later, michael cohen will get a look at his stuff. i don t know if he is going to get it all back. steve: it will be interesting to see. ultimately the big news out of the sean hannity r
the government should never see it. steve: oh, boy. i do believe the president is right when he argues that the attorney-client privilege is under assault. on the other hand, we have learned that they have been surveying, watching and investigating michael cohen since before donald trump was elected president. steve: going on for a while. judge, thank you very much. always exciting. always different. ainsley: did you hear this? a syrian refugee who survived a chemical attack is thanking president trump. i would love to like buy you a beer. ainsley: he wants to have a beer with the president. and he joins us live in the next hour. steve: switching gears. we are celebrating one of the most iconic cars in history, ford mustang, special coming up next. if you want to be a star baby, you can drive my car but, babe, i love you
syrian surface to air defenses reacting to that false alarm. steve, ainsley, brian, back to you. steve: so the syrians were just shooting at nothing? it sounds like it. lobbing that stuff in the air. it s dangerous, gravity works. missiles go up and missiles come down. steve: mike tobin, thank you. brian: now of course the president is saying word is he is trying to lobby some arab allies to take over for 2,000 troops that are there. that could be problematic. there is nobody that can do what we can do or represent what we can represent. we also have 4,000 over in jordan. so we will see where that goes. especially if they go for another chemical attack what our response is going to be. ainsley: other news, james comey, we had michael cohen down in court yesterday. that was a big story yesterday we will get to. but also james comey his book comes out today. is he going to be making the rounds. he has bret baier s show that s going to air next thursday. jake at that point per, jude woo
