i agree the keith schiller element of this, phone calls between schiller and pecker is huge. even if the southern district has determined that the president broke the law, even if they have determined that they have a clear case against him, what they will do with it. >> they will not indict a sitting president. i know there has been speculation maybe they will, maybe they will find a way around it. that is long standing doj policy, goes back well before this administration. as independent as the southern district is, historically, they will not go absolutely rogue and simply defy a policy, but they can indict the president when he is out of office. they can potentially even issue a grand jury-type report publicly or potentially even refer it over to congress for appropriate action and they certainly can indict people very close to the president in his inner circle, in his orbit. i do think there is a decent chance they are working towards that as well. >> go ahead. >> there is a paragraph that describes the questions to hope hicks here, it says in the months after the raid -

cory lewandowski and hope hicks and keith schiller. turned out obviously to be a successful strategy in terms of winning the presidentdy. these were people who -- you know, lawrence, like the proximity to the principal is confers. power and also confers knowledge you. spend enough time in the proximity with a candidate you find out all the dirty laundry. sometimes the laundry is very dirty. sometimes it's not so dirty. those people including michael cohen who sat near trump on the bus with him, on the plane with him, everywhere they went, they saw a lot of stuff. some of it has been reported and much has not. and i think you're going to talk at the end of the show why donald trump might have a very bad day on the day when he leaves office if he leaves office in 2021. these people are the core to why that day might be so bad. they're at the core of it. >> and jason, this is obviously one of the problems the president has the minute he leaves office. it just may be that the only reason he hasn't been indicted is he's president of the uni

schiller who in politics is known as the body guy. the person who carries the bag, in this case i guess it had doe row toes and oreos in it. could they be looking at, you know, he carried the phone, handed the phone -- those two people essentially functioned as body people. >> they did and keith schiller was always at the president's side. it was his job -- well, we call him the president. the candidate then. they were on the trail, they were in that bubble, hearing trump talk about developments in the news. but trump had control over the operations of the campaign, all the statements that went out, the sensitive stories like this one, so there was no way he was not involved with hope hicks in managing that story with pecker. >> there's been ways that donald trump sought to get his politically appointed attorney in new york to unrecuse in the cohen cases. we know in barr what we appear to have, someone very willing to put his finger on the scale literally and render a judgment for the president that benefits the president. what do you

on the schiller side, it's very interesting. it's really the first time that we're hearing that federal investigators were talking to him. there has been a lot of questions around him. his thing is he also was very close to the president. a lot of phone calls sometimes, you wanted to get in touch with the president or donald trump during the campaign, you'd have to no through schiller. so you can see why perhaps prosecutors wanted to see who is schiller in contact with? they were working this case to try to figure out, what did the president know? what did donald trump know about these hush money payments? >> stay with me. have you more news. i want to add into the conversation here. u.s. attorney for the southern district of new york, a former title and former very vice president for corporate relations firm american media. as shimone points out, keith schiller, 20 years with donald trump. in the stormy daniels case, steve schiller is the guy that brokers the meeting in the room. he is not only involved in the campaign and woul

michael cohen with him more than a decade, keith schiller i believe even longer than that. sabrina, there is the law and then there is the politics of this. what is the political appetite for pursuing these charges further? federal prosecutors here have to make their own decisions based on the law, this he appear to be pursuing this case, but politically what is the appetite for pursuing these and how much do democrats risk this sense that, you know, always investigating the president? >> well, i think that democrats have made clear that these hush money payments and what exactly the president knew about them and when he knew it is an area of focus and that they fully do intend to investigate those matters, especially after michael cohen not only directly implicated the president in a violation of campaign finance law, but entered what he said was evidence for the public record that trump personally signed off on at least one of those reimbursement checks, as did his son donald trump jr. and allen weisselberg. they have said that they intend to, in fact, call allen weisselb

keith schiller, former nypd police officer, navy veteran. i would argue few people were closer to donald trump during the early days, especially when he arrived in the white house and didn't have a lot of friends around. you were -- you've interviewed 20 people, you and your team, you have reviewed a thousand documents. what's the headline on your findings on this case which has been slowly and quietly growing? >> the big takeaway here is that the southern district has gathered a lot more evidence than they have made public, including testimony from two people who were extremely close to trump, and that's hope hicks and keith schiller. and these interviews happened last year in the spring as they were building this case against cohen. and i do want to caution, you know, it's possible none of this material will ever become public. we don't know what they're going to do with it, but we wanted to sort of signal to the public and to readers that they have this information. >> berit berger, what lengths would they have gone to in this office to k

attorney's office interviewed hope hicks, his long time communications adviser, and keith schiller, long time security adviser, kind of body man. all related to the campaign finance investigation. according to the journal, a lot of questions involving them had to do with american media, the publisher of national enquirer. these interviews took place last spring and the journal doesn't say it, but usually the way the investigations work is they use this as leverage. having this testimony from the inner circle, people that know intimately about arrangements likely helped prosecutors get david pecker and publisher of american media and the company itself to cooperate as part of the immunity and nonprosecution agreements. likely the cooperation will provide inside information about his long time relationship with david pecker, which was enough to force -- >> and david pecker got immunity in exchange for cooperation. allen weisselberg got immunity in connection with his cooperation. how much of a threat is all of this to the president? >> look, i think people around the president are very muc

donald trump as a citizen. >> right, keith schiller would know about a lot. he was with trump, physically there with him for a lot of meetings and conversations i'm sure would be of interest to investigators. >> and your reporting uncovered this record of a phone conversation between michael cohen, and was it keith davidson, the attorney for stormy daniels and karen macdougall? >> this was in the fall of 2017, mueller had been appointed special counsel and already investigating cohen and keith davidson's bank actually flagged the transaction of the funds coming out of his account to stormy daniels. he calls michael cohen and says hey, of all the transactions they could have flagged, they zeroed in on this one. so maybe we should be worried about this being under investigation. and i think the recordings showed that cohen wasn't particularly alarmed by this, and it shows the degree to which he was probably very surprised at the april raid that he was indeed under investigation. >> this is what prosecutors of the southern district of new york, not the mueller i

keith schiller. but when it came to talking to hicks they wanted to talk to her about her contacts with david pecker around the time that david pecker and everybody else involved in the scheme was still selling a fake cover story to deny what had really happened. hope hicks was involved in conversations with david pecker around that time when they were covering it up and now david pecker has immunity? what about hope hicks? "the journal" is reporting she was questioned as was keith schiller. ami has the nonprosecution agreement, don't commit any crimes and it will be fine. cnn is reporting jeff bezos will talk to prosecutors as soon as some time this week. they are reportedly investigating whether ami extorted jeff bezos, extortion is a crime, running stories about his extramarital affair in the "national enquirer" to punish him for how his newspaper "the washington post" has covered the murder of jamal khashoggi and saudi arabia's apparent complicity in that murder. sdny is looking at whether ami mi

this is according to the "wall street journal" reporting that hicks along with bodyguard keith schiller were investigated as part of the investigation into the payments. so rebecca davis o'brien broke the story. and elie honig with is the southern district of new york. so welcome to both of you. nice to have you on. tell me what you found. what were prosecutors looking for? >> this is -- our article today gives more texture and detail to this investigation into campaign finance angle which relates to the efforts to conceal the two women's alleged affairs with the president. and what we wrote about today was federal prosecutors in the spring of 2017 at this investigation was getting underway spoke with both hope hicks and keith schiller as part of the investigation. and what they seem to be focused on, we don't know the entirety of the conversation but we heard today they were interested in part in their conversations with ami and david pecker, the head of ami which is the publisher of the "enquirer" who had an intimate role in efforts to conceal those affairs. >> and looking to you on t

schiller would know about a lot. he was with trump, physically there with him for a lot of meetings and conversations i'm sure would be of interest to investigators. >> and your reporting uncovered this record of a phone conversation between michael cohen keith davidson, the attorney for stormy daniels and karen macdougall? >> this was in the fall of 2017, mueller had been appointed special counsel and already investigating cohen and keith davidson's bank actually flagged the transaction of the funds coming out of his account to stormy daniels. he calls michael cohen and says hey, of all the transactions they could have flagged, they zeroed in on this one. so maybe we should be worried about this being under investigation. and i think the recordings showed that cohen wasn't particularly alarmed by this, and it shows the degree to which he was probably very surprised at the april raid that he was indeed under investigation. >> this is the prosecutors of the southern district of new york, not the mueller investigation.

we also know keith schiller also talked to them. and so is that something that they are still looking at? we don't know exactly where the southern district of new york will go, but this is the reason why the president's lawyers have always been more worried about this investigation than anything else, because they knew they could deal with the collusion stuff and the obstruction stuff. they thought they had that handled. this is definitely much harder to deal with because you can't fire the southern district of new york. >> right. >> you can get rid of bob mueller. you can't get rid of these guys and they don't go away. they fully expect this is going to follow the president through the end of his presidency. again, if he doesn't get re-elected in 2020, it is possible you can bring charges against a former president. >> i think it's interesting that democrats on the hill, this is an issue that they really haven't been going after very much. they're talking about russia. they're talking about obstruction. they're talking about, you k

and it stands to reason that there is -- that hope hicks and keith schiller might have had involvement and you have an aggressive prosecutor and it is one thing that they won't indict trump, that is the policy, but other people may well have been involved and they could get to the bottom of it and even try to get to the bottom of what trump knew and when he knew it even if they're not going to indict him. so it showed they are dogged on the trail, not going away and pursuing not just hope hicks and schiller, but other leads as well. this is going to be a headache for the trump organization and for the individuals in the inner circle for months, if not longer. >> harry litman, great to see you. thank you for your analysis and all of that. i want to turn the page and talk 2020. senator bernie sanders just unveiled an ambitious new health care plan. >> and the reason that we have a health care system which is disfunction is fairly obvious. it is not just the huge profits in the insurance industry and the pharmaceutical industry, but it is the incredible waste and bureaucracy developed by

hope hicks and keith schiller know a lot about this. they were like flies on the wall around president trump. how significant is it they testify about these hush money payment? >> that's right, brianna. they were very close to president trump. they worked with him at the trump organization for a long time. keith schiller essentially as his bodyguard and hope hicks as his communications adviser. what we're learning from "the wall street journal" report, is that last spring investigators interviewed both of them and they could be helpful in a number of ways. as we've seen the investigation play out over the course of the year, yesterday was the one-year anniversary of the raid on michael cohen. investigators would have turned to both of these individuals to help explain what they knew about trump's relationship with american media, the publisher of the "national enquirer," which was involved in one of the hush money payments. as we've seen over the course of this year-long investigation, that, you know, these interviews took place last ye

previously known including by speaking to some of the president's closest confidants, hope hicks, keith schiller, about his involvement in those hush money payments to stormy daniels and karen mcdougal. i want to ask you this question because i've heard your comments before defending the president. but if there was no wrongdoing here and the president was confident in that, why did he lie about it in april 2018, as you know, on air force one and say he didn't know about the payments? >> well, the president is saying he didn't know about the payments when they were made, that he discovered that -- i've spoken with him directly about this and that is what he has told me so i'm going to repeat it to you. >> for the sake of our audience who might not remember this, i'm going to play the tape. it was a clear question and clear answer on air force one. >> he took a request he from the same reporter minutes ago on the south lawn. >> folks at home might not have heard it. let's play it and i want to hear how you respond. >> when the audit is complete i will release my returns. i have no problem with it.

they've interviewed people like keith schiller, like hope hicks. schiller was his bodyguard, and hope hicks was an assistant of some sort, a press person. do you think that this presents a bigger danger to the president than the mueller investigation has more exposure here? >> i don't know what the fact are. he has more exposure in the sense that the mueller investigation, even though some people thought it crossed red lines and the president was always upset about that investigation, it was related to interference in the election and potential involvement in the trump campaign, and one of which was obstruction. congress does not have any circumspection. it can look at finance abuse, as it is with the michael cohen case they're overseeing. if the president has done wrong in some of these other aspects of his life, like the trump organization or the inaugural committee or something else, then the southern district of new york is free to look at all those things. i still think they have the constraint that a lot of people don't like -- >> from the do

the sdny talking to hope hicks, the former white house communication director and keith schiller, the president's former security chief. the "wall street journal" reporter who broke that story nicole joins me now. what do we know about what exactly prosecutors asked schiller and hicks. >> to be clear, these interviews happened a year ago as they were looking at michael cohen and the payments he arranged. we don't know the full scope of what sdny asked them. they were interested in hope and keith's interactions with david who is the chief executive who made one of the hush money payments on trump's behalf. obviously, two people very close to the president and probably will have a lot of information to tell prosecutors. >> thank you for that. weal we're going to go back now to barr who is being questioned. >> the cken starr investigation grand jury secrecy was overcome to allow congressional access. did you ask the district court to release grand jury material to congress? >> did you say were you citing the starr investigation? >> and the watergate, yes. >> okay. well, the starr investi

during this trial, carl, we are expected to hear from some star witnesses for apple, tim cook, phil schiller and jeff williams, for qualcomm, and founder irwin jake cobs. at the heart of this case, apple claims that qualcomm monopolizes the market for mode emchips. extracting what it calls extosh tant royalties and that separately qualcomm owes apple $1 billion. more importantly apple is also challenging qualcomm's patent royalty rate. remember, qualcomm's business model here. it sells chips but it also licenses patents on the royalty for the price of each phone. for apple that meant paying qualcomm a royalty rate of $7.50 for each device. cook's company says that's just unfair allowing qualcomm to profit from innovations it had nothing to do with. but the chip maker fires right back countering that apple contributed virtually nothing to the development of core cellular technology, built its products on the back of qualcomm's innovation and is now just trying to pay far less than fair value for qualcomm's technology. so bottom line, why should investors care about this case for apple, this c

investigators learned of calls between schiller and david becker, the chief executive that paid for rights to the story about the alleged affair but never ran the article. that practice known in the tablet industry as catch and kill. also, investigators had asked hicks about her contact with mr. pecker in november of 2016. michael cohen pleaded guilty last august two campaign finance violation charges after claiming that he arrange the payments at mr. trump's direction. something the president has denied. the journal reporting that investigators also possess a recorded phone conversation between cohen and a lawyer who represented daniels. that's new information for the u.s. attorney office in new york declined to comment on this cas case. >> melissa: laura ingle, thank you so much for that. new york city declaring a public health emergency over growing measles outbreaks, with city officials doing to stop it. plus, presidential hopefuls kirsten gillibrand saying she is ashamed of some past positions on immigration joining other senate 2020 democrats apologizing for past comments. it is sorr

wall street journal" report is they nominate the hope hicks, former white house director and keith schiller, president trump's bodyguard, in the ongoing probe of hush money payments to women, which is entirely separate from the mueller investigation. involves cooperation by michael cohen, president trump's longtime former lawyer who pleaded guilty and has been sentenced to prison. so i think what this underscores is why are we all focusing on the mueller report, what does the mueller report say, there's another significant investigation in new york that's still examining the whole question of these payments to women during the campaign, michael cohen already implicated the president in a crime in this case, basically saying the president, then-candidate donald trump then ordered michael cohen to essentially violate campaign finance law. that's not deemed to have been by congress something that seems to ride to the level of an impeachable offense. but it's deeply significant and this underscores this investigation remains very active and has talked to some significant players. >> but the peo

he got arrested the minute he walked into boy schiller. what do you think sdny is up to? >> i think they're up to a lot. but i want to disagree with the job that bob mueller did a great job. i think he wimped out here a bit. i think the case against don junior on campaign finance violations that's in the mueller report, i think the analysis of why that wasn't indicted wouldn't be a passing grade in a first year election law case. i think the analysis there is incredibly weak. i think the idea that don junior wasn't indicted for coordinating with wikileaks, for conspireing with wikileaks, really slides past the collusion, if you want to call it that, the conspiracy, that i think this document proves out. i think there was plenty of indictable conduct, with regard to both the coordination between the trump campaign and wikileaks and with regard to the campaign finance violation by the trump tower meeting that mueller did not press charges on. and i think that's disappointing. >> chuck, let me let you respond to that. >> it may be disappointing, but i trust mueller's judgmen

director hope hicks at part of their campaign finance probe as well as trump's former security chief keith schiller, according to the journal. the campaign finance investigation is based on the theory the secret payments to keep women quiet were illegal contributions because they were intended to influence the election. new details of the investigation gleaned from interviews with 20 people familiar with the probe and from nearly 1,000 pages of court documents show prosecutors had gathered information about mr. trump's alleged involvement in the payments weeks before mr. cohen asserted it in open court. trump has denied the women's claims of sexual encounters and has denied wrongdoing. jay sekulow, a lawyer to trump, declined the journal's request for comment. michael steele, this is still swirling, isn't it? >> yes, there is and there are more revelations behind it. there will be revelations as this unfolds unlike anything we saw certainly in the last cycle where folks are now, reporters in particular, are going to be digging deeper and digging harder. i think a lot of folks just kind of g of got
