to me it's not good enough, don. this is about the way we expect our leaders to act and to be able to lead us. and i'm very disappointed in this. i mean, that's an understatement. i didn't go to the convention, i didn't endorse the guy. i've been outspoken now for two years, and it doesn't make me happy. i don't like to have to do this stuff. but you know what, sometimes you have to say what's on your mind. >> what's happened to your party? >> well, you know, it's -- don, look, i mean the party is, again, they're concerned about whether they're going to be unpopular with their base, okay? but let's not just talk about the republican party. down in virginia as you have covered yourself, you got a governor that's in trouble, a lieutenant governor in trouble, and an attorney general in trouble. they're all democrats. and they don't know what to do. and what they're worried about is if all those three guys get taken out there'll be a republican governor. you take a look at we couldn't even have the democrats condemn aept

this is "cnn tonight," i'm don lemon. you just heard from colorado governor john hickenlooper in cnn's town hall. still there in the room. the democratic presidential candidate answering questions from the audience for about an hour. questions about the rise of white nationalism, the toll of young black men killed by police, health care, legalizing marijuana, climate change and a whole lot more. so how did he do in terms of making his case with you, with the american voters? i want to bring in now cnn senior political analyst mr. mark preston who was at the town hall in atlanta. mark, thank you very much. for many people, you know, across the country this is the first time they're being introduced to the former governor. what are your takeaways? >> no doubt about that the headline out of this town hall is john hickenlooper acknowledging he took his mother to perhaps the most famous pornographic movie ever made in history. and they stayed for the whole thing and thought the lighting was very good. but beyond that, i think

>> reporter: hey there, don. yeah, emmet flood at least one of two white house attorneys that are here at mar-a-lago for the weekend. they were obviously prepared for the release of the mueller report, and they're likely going to be preparing for what may come from attorney general barr when he sort of condenses what mueller's report contains. so far publicly there's been some restraint from the white house. as often as we've heard president trump say that this investigation is a witch hunt and that this is fake news, he hasn't actually tweeted or said anything about it. sarah sanders put out a statement saying that she looks forward to seeing how the process plays out moving forward and that the next steps are in the hands of the attorney general. privately, though, white house officials feel vindicated. there's a sense of joy coming from them. one source, as you noted earlier, telling cnn, quote, the fat lady has sung, suggesting that because none of the president's associates have been charged with collusion o

after your show, don, it was crazy. i mean, social media went crazy, congress people were calling, people saying this could not happen to this young man. it's terrible. how could you have somebody who does what we say do, made a mistake but 13 years, he's done perfect, done perfect and with this tsunami of public support for this young man. when we fight, we win. so the federal defenders need a round of applause. the prosecutor came to the table. the bureau of prison. i mean, it was unbelievable what happened. and listen, we have to do this every time we hear about injustice. i'm going to tell you, this is what it is going to take. we all have good and bad hearts. when you have somebody that's made a sacrifice. when you have somebody who's an asset for the community, we'll fight tooth and nail. this is a victory to inspire people across the country and if they come after somebody else, quit going in the drawer trying to find more people to put back in prison. like we don't have enough people in prison. >> isn't this wha

>> you know, don, i think there's no doubt. there's a lot of research that points to how social media interactions and how those engagements in the virtual space actually influence people's behavior. so when people go out there and they find like groups, they find people who share their ideology and they have conversations among themselves, oftentimes it's very subtle. sometimes it's people just talking about other groups and talking about some of the things that concern them, but ultimately what you have in these cases is you have one person in that group that's triggered by something. and, you know, i know we're probably going to talk about this a little bit tonight, but that trigger isn't always in social media. sometimes that trigger is in things that people in leadership positions are saying around the country. >> do you want to speak to that? >> yeah. first of all, don, i'm glad you said in that intro 49 people being culled in new zealand because they're muslim. a lot of journalists, well-meaning liberals have talked righ

i'm don lemon. we have to talk about what the president said a little while ago at his maga rally in michigan, i state he won in 2016. he needs to win it again in 2020. the president spoke for a whopping hour and 25 minutes saying exactly what you would expect him to say. >> the collusion delusion is over. the special counsel completed its report and found no collusion and no obstruction. total exoneration. complete vindication. >> so he says it over and over and over. which doesn't make it true. we know very little right now about what is actually in robert mueller's report. just the summary. handful of quotes and the attorney general's letter. but we've got some important new details for you tonight. the primary obstacle to getting the full mueller report is the grand jury information it includes. that is according to a democratic staffer who says congress may get a court order to release the information from the grand jury. and we now know something else about the mueller report that is really pr

>> good evening, don. we learned a lot more, new, valuable information about what michael cohen heard, saw, did, was asked to do, and he's going to come back in a couple of days with some corroborating documents and take more questions from us. that's about all i can say right now. but i thought it was very helpful, what we learned today. >> and you found his information helpful and credible you think, right? >> very credible. for a couple of reasons. one, i observed him last time back in october 2017 where he was a different person, where -- he seemed a little, you know, less forthcoming, a little shiftier in his answers. today he was very careful to understand the question and make sure that he was careful in his response, you know, not to say anything that he didn't know or didn't want to speculate at all. also, he's got this sword of damocles that is hanging over him. he saw paul manafort touch the hot stove as a cooperating witness, he lied and now he faces 19 to 24 years in prison. michael cohen know

i'm don lemon. robert mueller's report on the russia investigation hotly anticipated on capitol hill and at the white house. it could come any day now. tonight, multiple sources telling cnn that white house lawyers expect to have an opportunity to review mueller's findings before attorney general bill barr submits them to congress. sources saying attorneys want an opportunity to claim executive privilege over information drawn from documents and interviews with white house officials. that sure to set up a political battle with congressional democrats and it could also lead to the perception that president trump is trying to keep information from the american public. there's lots to discuss. so joining me now, shimon prokupecz, garrett graff. garrett is the author of "the threat matrix: inside robert mueller's fbi and the war on terror." gentlemen, good to be with you. let's get to the details here. how significant is it that white house lawyers are preparing to review mueller's findings before the p

one more little bite about what michael cohen said about don junior, here it is. >> i recall don junior leaning over to his father and speaking in a low voice, which i could clearly hear, and saying, the meeting is all set and i remember mr. trump saying, okay, good. let me know. so i concluded that don junior was referring to that june 2016 trump tower meeting about dirt on hillary with the russian representatives when he walked behind his dad's desk that day. >> so there's two ways to look at it, you know, that cohen is saying that donald trump felt his son don junior had the worst judgment of all, but -- maybe actually they go together but then he's don junior does the meeting or sets up the meeting, this trump tower meeting but he has to tell his dad z that track with what you know about the family? >> absolutely. let me tell you why -- it tracks with two things. it tracks with what i know about campaign and it tracks with what family. the way trump has his organization set up and it should be noted that the trump organization is not some big sprawling enterprise with hundreds of em

[ booing ] maybe the only time i've ever agreed with the mayor of chicago. maybe. that's a terrible situation. that's an embarrassment, not only to chicago, that is an embarrassment to our country. >> so let's discuss now. laura

i'm don lemon. let's face it. chris and i talked about this earlier, about the lies. when you lie about anything, you'll lie about everything. and this president, who according to the hardworking fact checkers at "the washington post," has made well over 9,000 false or misleading claims since taking the oath of office, will lie about anything. he'll lie about dumb little things, things that anybody else would just laugh off, things like calling apple's ceo tim cook "tim apple." he could have just called it a slip of the tongue. that would be easy enough. but instead, he tweeted today that he was saving time and words. saving time and words? is he really in such a hurry that he needs to leave out the man's last name? think about that. and that was actually his second lie about the whole thing. here's what axios reported, that the president told republican donors at mar-a-lago that he actually said "tim cook apple," "tim cook apple" really fast. really? roll the tape. >> and you really have -- i mean,

then you've got these text messages, don. and a lot of employees that found out about them they disturbed them. there's a group chat. i want to read you through. the text group chat amongst the workers they were talking about winning the lottery, which sounds like a wonderful thing. and as they're going through talking about how great it would be to win one of the people texted just remember if you don't win and you're feeling down-and-out, the noose is loose. and that's an early retirement option as well. and then someone replied to that, well, we can buy another noose with the winnings. these are the sorts of things that were being said around the employees who were blacked, that were being talked about, played. and this isn't just men. this is men and women. there are 19 people who have filed suit who have come forward. some of them are working at ups, some of them have retired. but there is a great fear amongst some of those working at the ups office and also just a disappointment with the fact they feel they have made th

i'm don lemon. president trump declaring victory tonight after the attorney general, attorney general bill barr's letter summarizing the mueller report stated that the investigation did not establish that trump or his campaign conspired or coordinated with the russian government. mueller did not reach a conclusion on obstruction. barr quotes him saying, "while this report does not conclude that the president committed a crime, it also does not exonerate him." here's what the president's attorney jay sekulow just said to chris about that. >> does a prosecutor exonerate? >> no. i don't even know why the word -- >> i don't know why it's in there either. >> he said, this part we do know, that it raised difficult questions of law and fact. >> yeah, that's why we had him in the charge. >> you're an attorney. you prosecuted cases. here's the problem. when you have difficult questions of law and difficult facts, guess what you don't do. >> prosecute. >> right. >> well, the white house still has not received

i'll use that sometime, don. let me go back to you. let me ask you this. the fact that even the victory dance, the victory lap, we're hearing from fox news commentators, hosts, and others. but we've not, like i said, heard the president say anything. we have not seen rudy giuliani out there. doesn't that make one wonder whether they are concerned about what might be in the report or may -- i have no information whether they've gotten briefing from somebody, that is not supposed to have briefed him. but the fact that we have not seen the figures on the news shows on anything last night, i don't know if they're doing sunday morning shows, doesn't that show a little reserve from the trump team? >> it shows some degree of that, yes. and i will agree with you, i think there's a bit of perhaps being scared on the president's part. and it wouldn't be bad for the president to just say, look, this is a moment. this is a pivotal moment in my presidency, and i want to take a moment to just take some calm. it's something he hasn't done as don pointed out. congressiona

>> don, the other -- well, that's what it -- that's what should happen. you know, john hickenlooper, democrat candidate for president, brian sandoval, former governor of nevada, and myself, we presented a plan that we thought could improve the system. so you know, we've gotten to the point where if you're for obamacare, you say okay, it's perfect, if you're against it, you say we ought to abolish it. there's a middle ground, fix it. because if you don't fix it, people lose health care because of pre-existing conditions. we take away the benefit of medicaid expansion where we have 600,000 people in ohio who now have health care that didn't have it before. a low uninsured rate now in ohio. and that money went to help people who were drug addicted, mentally ill. in fact, went people got that kind of coverage, actually encouraged hem to work and it doesn't make any sense what we're talking about here. >> well -- >> i think republicans are very nervous on capitol hill. it's not a winning issue for republicans. >> i've got a lot of things i want to get to here,

i'm don lemon. the president of the united states smacked down by his own party. 12 senate republicans joining democrats to hand him a humiliating reboouke on the national security declaration to get the money for his border wall. the president promising in all-caps in a one-word tweet to "veto" the administratid it. they're planning an on-camera event for the president to wield his veto pen maybe as soon as tomorrow. so stay tuned. that won't change the fact that he was crossed by his own party. and that's the kind of thing that makes him very unhappy. we've got to talk about this as well. playing the tough guy. and sounding a whole lot like he is threatening violence against people he views as political opponents. he did it again today in an interview with breitbart news suggesting that he has supporters in our police forces, in our military, who could make things very bad. so, the full quote here. okay? so you can see it for yourself. "i have the support of the police. the support of the military

>> it appears to be, don. because i believe her office is also maintaining that they had confidence that i think her principal deputy, the one who made the decision. her principal deputy said no changed circumstances that would affect their ability to prove the charges. so it's very bizarre. there's a lot of bizarre things about how this was handled and what happened and frankly, to me, this op-ed is going to raise more of those questions. >> what about the mayor and the police chief? >> well, i mean, the fact, you know, certainly, kim foxx is a very popular figure here in chicago with good reason and i don't know whether or not, why the mayor has come out so strongly. but certainly, one could infer that because the chicago police want this looked into that there isn't some misconduct by them that they want to hide or at least if they do, it's a very bad strategy on their part. certainly, there may have been some friction between the police department and kim foxx's office. after all, she knows in the op-ed, c

. >> no future in dfrgs, don. only bad things happen. >> this is cnn tonight. i'm don lemon. we have got to talk about the rise of white supremacy. sit back and please listen. just listen, okay? i'm going to lay it all out for you right now. we've got to talk about how it's killing people around the world. we know the latest. 49 muslim worshippers shot in attacks on two mosques in new zealand, yet today today the president of the united states, who had just gotten off the phone with the prime minister, offering his condolences after what can only be called a brutal terror attack, the president said this -- >> do you think that they were white nationalists are a rising threat around the world? >> i don't really. i think it's a small group of people that have very, very serious problems i guess. >> he doesn't see it as a rising thre threat, even though that's what the facts show. just hours after the murders of 49 people. just hours after the alleged shooter, an avowed white nationalist, posted a so-called manifesto online, 87 pages, filled with anti-immigrant and anti-muslim r

i'm don lemon. a justice department official confirming today that it will take weeks, not months to release a public version of the special counsel robert mueller's report. the official adding there are no plans to give an advanced copy to the white house. here's what the president had to say about it just today. >> the mueller report was great. it could not have been better. it said no obstruction, no collusion. it could not have been better. >> first of all, it's not true that the report said no obstruction and no collusion, but we'll get to that later. let's all please take a deep breath and back this train up for a moment. the president was just talking about the mueller report. but we don't have the mueller report. and according to the white house and to justice department officials neither does the president. what we have and what the president is talking about is attorney general bill barr's letter. it is a letter outlining the so-called principle conclusions of mueller's report. but how can

so it will be interesting to see whether he corroborates don junior or contradicts don junior and where that meets. we know that adam schiff thinks that don junior lied when it came to this specific area. he could provide prior consistent statements about what cohen was telling them about the briefing. he could provide us information about the russians we're seeing, about the deal. there's just a lot of information. and if i could just highlight one thing harry just said that i think is really important, it has to do with this immunity issue and weisselberg. because, remember oliver north and admiral poindexter had their convictions overturned because the senate -- the house and the senate didn't get the immunity deals right. and we need to be really careful about that. so that in no way the mueller probe is compromised. >> wow. harry, there's some conservatives out there contending that all of this is just a precursor to get president trump's children to capitol hill to testify. do you think that's true? could don junior and ivanka be next? >> no, i don't think they'll be next. i think

i'm don lemon. as we wait for robert mueller report in the russia investigation the most powerful democrat on capitol hill is making a major tool that congress can use against the president of the united states off the table. house speaker nancy pelosi saying she doesn't currently support a impeaching trump. despite believing hes infit to >>> despite believing that he's unfit to occupy the oval office. the speaker telling the "washington post," this is a quote, "i'm not for impeachment. impeachment is so divisive to the country that unless there's something so compelling and overwhelming and bipartisan i don't think we should go down that path because it divides the country and he's just not worth it." joining me now is congressman brad sherman, a california democrat who sits on the foreign affairs committee. congressman, so good to have you on. welcome. you introduced an article of impeachment against president trump that was back in 2017. but now nancy pelosi is saying impeachment is not worth it.

>> he has to be worried, don. listen, if you truly believed that you were completely innocent, that this is all a hoax, then you would want the report to come out. i mean according to the president, the report should be blank or have like two sentences on it, and it should exonerate him. i mean clearly if he doesn't want it to come out, he doesn't think that that's the case. but ultimately this is a case of like very high public interest. i think both parties understand that. they know that not knowing what's in there would be weaponized on either side by speculation, and it's better for the american public to know the truth. >> mm-hmm. harry, let's talk about rick gates because mueller says that they aren't ready for him to be sentenced. >> yeah. >> here's what the special counsel's office said today. gates continues to cooperate with respect to several ongoing investigations, and accordingly, the parties do not believe it is appropriate to commence the sentencing process at this point. so what's your read on thi

i'm don lemon. so what a day this has been for the president. what a day this has been for the president. sort of like christmas, his birthday, and election night 2016 all rolled into one. the dark cloud of the russia investigation lifted and the president's nemesis, well, one of them facing criminal charges. you can't write this stuff. we're going to have more on that in a moment. but president trump is basking in the glow of the no collusion that he says all the time after bill barr's letter summarizing the mueller report, saying the investigation did not establish that trump or his campaign conspired or coordinated with the russian government. mueller did not reach a conclusion on obstruction. barr quotes him saying, while this report does not conclude that the president committed a crime, it also does not exonerate him, which hasn't stopped the president, by the way, from falsely claiming he was totally exonerated. and even though a white house official tells cnn that they haven't seen the full

let's turn things over to don lemon and cnn tonight. >>> this is cnn tonight, i'm don lemon. can you just feel the tension? the white house, congress, all of us on pins and needles with the mueller report expected to drop at any time now. the report that's been in the works for 674 days and counting. all the signs are there. mueller's team shrinking, down from 16 attorneys to 10. staff members seen carrying out boxes. prosecutors bringing their families in to visit the office. no sign of a grand jury in two weeks, and as the white house braces for the report that's been a dark cloud over this administration for almost two years now, sources are telling cnn that team trump is taking a, what me worry approach to this. a source familiar with what's going on inside the white house saying there's growing optimism that the report will not accuse the president of committing any crimes, but that hasn't stopped the white house special counsel emmitt flood and his team from gaming out possible responses to mueller, based on scenarios ranging from a report damaging to the president to o

i'm don lemon. paul manafort, president trump's former campaign chairman, about to be sentenced for a second time. he'll appear before judge amy berman jackson in federal court in washington, d.c. tomorrow. manafort faces up to ten years in prison for his guilty pleas to charges of conspiracy and conspiracy to obstruct justice. judge jackson has proved to be tough on him. she revoked his bail, put him behind bars last june after concluding he tried to coach potential witnesses. and last month jackson said that manafort lied about his communications with constantine kilimnik, a russian who's a former business associate of manafort's. and don't forget that last week a federal judge in virginia stunned the courtroom by sentencing manafort to only 47 months in prison for his conviction of eight financial crimes including tax and bank fraud. prosecutors had recommended a sentence between 19 and 24 years. let's discuss. simone prokupecz is here. good evening to all of you. i'm going to start with you, shi

same with don mcgahn. i don't know there is a nefarious motive. maybe it's simply factual. >> but the sort of excuse your making for him having to fill out all this paperwork, you're acting like no one else has ever filled out this paperwork there are people much older than him. >> he would also to have pay an attorney, which is expensive. >> that's true. if you're getting a job doing international affairs, you typically have had a lot of contact with international people and transactions, and like i said, people who are much older and have much longer careers than him and managed to do this. so why is this so difficult. >> but he had to amend it four times. the first one was blank because they said mistakenly submitted. and they continued having to update and update and update. so the interim clearance went on for months. >> let's not forget the person who ran the security office was replaced. i believe that the person who granted these clearances wasn't the person who originally began the clearance process as well. robert klein. >> is it normal
