jon? jon: what about the pressure the white house is also facing from lawmakers over its decision to pull u.s. troops out of northern syria? does the president appear to be fazed by any of the criticism? >> no, jon, he doesn't. the president says he stands by his decision to pull out troops from northern syria, but as you mentioned, there have been a lot of lawmakers, including republicans on capitol hill that say they are perplexed by the decision. there's also been some talk about what's been happening behind the scenes with the pentagon. we also had a chance to hear from the president when he was asked about what this could mean for isis in the region. this is what the president has to say. >> we have isis totally under guard. turkey is also guarding separately. they are watching over everything. so you have the kurds who we're dealing with and are very happy about the way things are going, i must say. >> one person who is not convinced is the former obama era national security advisor

jon? jon: molly henneberg, thank you. >>> so as tensions heat up on both sides of the political aisle, recent polling shows public support for impeachment is steadily on tin -- on the increase. 47.3% of americans backing the impeachment and removal of president trump. 46.9% oppose that outcome. joining us now white house reporter for real clear politics. we will get to the joe biden situation and hunter biden situation in a minute, philip. but first, on this impeachment thing, why is it that the support for impeachment seems to be on the rise? >> well, i think one of the reasons why is we have seen so much news in the last couple of weeks. you talked about polling a second ago. there was the fox news poll that had the anger of the president, but it certainly wasn't an outlier. we saw similar results from polling from the washington post and the "wall street journal" and like you mentioned a moment ago, our average over there at real clear politics shows that across the board, impeachment i

jon: andrew mccabe did face charges. but he did lie to fbi agents, he lied to his boss. >> we have flown that for a year and there are no criminal charges. it's unclear what the criminal investigation by durham is about. jon: now we know at least a judge has said that the democrats who are investigating, want to impeach president trump should be allowed to see the unredacted portions of the muller report. it's likely that decision will be appealed. but if the intel commit eat gets that report unredacted. what are they going to see? >> there are about a thousand redactions in the mueller report. one surprising thing people might not appreciate is all of the redactions aren't necessarily going to damage president trump. one of the reactions i was able to unredact through reporting, it concerns an allegation that the russians intercepted a phone sex conversation of president clinton when he was in office potentially making him vulnerable to blackmail. there may be surprises in there. jon: tom mcclintock says the ruling on t

jon? jon: thank you. the president and allies continue to question the legitimacy of the probe, after house speaker pelosi insisted a full house vote is not necessary to move forward. >> technically it's not in the law anywhere that you have to do it, but the last two times with president clinton and president nixon, they did a full house vote, and they set certain procedures of how it was going to go, and there was due process so that their president's counsel at those times could cross-examine witnesses, sit in on the hearings and have witness lists. none of that is happening here. jon: garrett tenney joins us from washington with more. >> right now it looks like the fight over documents is likely going to end up in the courts. so far the white house is refusing to cooperate with impeachment inquiry and last night a trio of top democrats responded by issuing a new subpoena in that effort. the heads of three house committees oversight intelligence and foreign affairs have given the white house until octo

jon: the u.s. army says three soldiers were killed and three others injured at what the army calls a training accidents in georgia. an armored vehicle the soldiers were riding in rolled over into water during a drill. an investigation under way into the cause of the crash. a delicate and difficult mission in downtown new orleans did not go as expected. crews set off explosions reportedly to take down two cranes. the building partially collapsed more than a week ago. laura ingle has the latest. reporter: the timed explosi dese massive cranes straight down' in place and have the arms of the boom fold down like a folding umbrella. incredibly only one of the towering structures made it down to the street below. here is a look again at how it went. the big red fireballs explode at the top and the middle what of ways known in the construction industry as the hammer head train crane. they said the idea was to have the boom pulled down to increase the food prints of the demo. you can see with that second c

still with us is historian and author jon meacham. jon, should history have to be signed and you know this is coming, tell us about the newspaper scandal of 1947, the article by mr. x. >> ah, yes, the long telegram. the doctor to the author of containment was george kennan. it was an anonymous article. it was actually in foreign affairs, wasn't it? >> yeah, that's right. >> this is the first time -- i'm gladiato glad we're up against the world series talking about foreign affairs. kennan was an american diplomat. he wrote -- basically laid out the argument for containment and is the intellectual father of that and wrote it anonymously. i would look at this on two levels. one is in real-time. president exogencies of those of us who aren't so courageous and don't have the choice to be anonymous and make this kind of warning. i think need to be careful about casting the first stone here. this person is clearly working through an enormously complex set of factors in their life and trying to put the life of the country in a better place as

jon? >> so sad so see that christina coalman, thank you. when will firefighters get a brain from the dry and windy conditions? meteorologist adam klotz in the fox weather center. >> jon, yeah, unfortunately still a tough situation. you're looking at los angeles county to the north everything in the pink is a red flag warning it means the conditions are still there for wildfires to spark or spread, everything here in the orange color that means an elevated risk of fire weather and everything in the red a critical risk so looking stretching to thousand oaks that's an area that's been battled wildfires before. we remember big wildfires a year ago. currently temperatures sitting in the middle 80s farther to the north, but the area has been bone dry and windy and there's good news with the wind forecast these have scaled back here over the last several hours, so we're only looking at winds in the 8- 10-mile an hour range enough to cause a problem but those aren't those 40-mile an hour winds that really push these type of fires and allow them to

. >> jon meacham, you and peter were two of three authors on the book "impeachment." it strikes me as i'm looking at this statement we got from kevin mccarthy, a political statement he's putting out there. he says, unfortunately you've given no indication about whether there are key historical precedence or basic standards of due process that will be observed. help us put what we've seen unfold over the last 24 hours in any kind of historical context, jon. >> well, we have a rolling abuse of power unfolding on our television screens. at least nixon did it behind closed doors and taped it. trump has disintermediate eighted that as well. without being anyway partisan, it seems the question for those, including leader mccarthy -- i haven't seen his letter. every republican, every person who supports the president i think has to answer the following question, and the answer can be whatever they want it to be. but at least they have to confront it. is american sovereignty worth the reflexive support of the president? do you so want to support this man against all criticism

>> jon: give me that cake! that old betty crocker. >> stephen: so, trump is struggling to find a coherent defense against his impeachment. but on the other hand, so is every other republican. take florida senator and hypnotized cobra, rick scott. ( laughter ) when senator scott was asked about the ukraine call, he answered, "what i saw, he asked him to look into something. but i-- i'm new." really really? you were the governor of florida. i'm new? so this is how the g.o.p. is going to respond now? "i'm new. just a widdle baby. i don't have object permanence yet, that's why when the constitution rolls behind the couch, we no longer have civil rights. goo-goo-- and i want to say this clearly-- ga-ga."
