you can sleep well America the president says there's no longer a nuclear threat
from North Korea of course North Korea's leaders have proven in the past that
they're willing to go back on their words and that's all we have without any
concrete promises are we really safer we'll go to the Pentagon and the Korean
Peninsula where the North Koreans are saying that the summit was a big win for
them and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo with a talk of a timeline for North
Korea to lose its nukes also the Republican senator bob Corker corker
ripping into his own party for not standing up to the president
the Deputy Attorney General rod Rosenstein accused of threatening
lawmakers the Justice Department calls it self-defense
plus our voters ready to split up California and a flood of reports about
the president's personal fixer Michael Cohen from Talkies losing his lawyers to
report that he's about to flip let's get to it
now Shepard Smith reporting live from the Fox News deck and we begin with the
news about president Trump's fixer according to the reporting of our
corporate cousins at The Wall Street Journal and others lawyers for president
Trump's longtime attorney Michael Cohen are set to bail on him by the end of
this week The Journal reports Cohen has not decided whether he will cooperate
with prosecutors the split is reportedly going to happen after his lawyers
finished reviewing millions of documents that the feds seized a couple of months
ago Cohen's lawyers are deciding which documents they believe or they're
insistent should fall under attorney-client privilege the judge set
a deadline for this Friday according to the Journal and others Cohen's lawyers
are out once the review is complete so far Cohen has not commented on any of
this at the moment he's not charged with any crimes but there is word he has some
serious financial problems analysts say his next attorney could help decide
whether Cohen cooperates with prosecutors in their criminal
investigation here in New York or the Special Counsel investigating Russian
meddling and possible collusion with team Trump our senior correspondent Rick
xi always has this news for and chef at least one report suggests
that the primary issue here is over payment to one of the attorneys would
that payment said to be substantial I did reach out directly to Mike Cohen
have not yet heard back from it he can text me at any time over the next two
minutes all right the US Attorney's Office also thanked us
for inquiries but said they won't be answering any questions either Cohen
first went to court back in April to try and use the attorney-client privilege to
shield some of the documents that the FBI seized from him he is under
investigation for possible campaign finance violations as well as bank fraud
he also faces a civil suit for defamation by porn star stormy Daniels
who claims she had a brief affair with Donald Trump
back in 2006 Cohen reportedly negotiated the nondisclosure agreement with Daniels
who received a $130,000 payment described as hush money just before the
2016 election today her attorney Michael avenatti released a statement saying
quote this is terrible news for mr. Trump as I predicted some time ago mr.
Cohen is going to flip on the president and he knows where all the bodies are
buried now Cohen's lawyers faced a Friday
deadline to complete their review of the millions of documents that were seized
in the case to see what might be privileged so far only a couple hundred
have been declared so of course he has not as you mentioned been charged with
any crime so the big question is will Cohen flip ah the Noddy seems to think
so other networks and news outlets are reporting that he very well might but in
the New York Times is among them was saying that all this trouble with his
legal team could lead to him cooperating with prosecutors Cohen's possible bank
fraud charges could stem from using a home equity line of credit to get the
money to pay Daniels he could also be in her water over the way he reported
millions of dollars in fees that he collected from large corporations after
the election but the biggest issue here could be campaign possible campaign
finance violations the so-called harsh payments could be considered campaign
contributions designed to boost the then-candidate Trump by limiting the
damaging information about him the amounts far exceeded federal limits and
would have had to have been reported to the Federal Election Commission
apparently they were not moving forward Shep no word on who Cohen might ask to
represent him if these other lawyers in fact you walk away but apparently he's
looking for someone with close ties to the US Attorney's Office Southern
District hearing you'll news from the future and not the
distance food right thank you Rick the president is declaring victory did
so today I'm Twitter claiming the North Korea nuclear threat is over even though
the president and the dictator kim jeong-hoon left out all the details on
how that will happen during their historic summit and their nukes are
still wherever they were three days ago and just as dangerous as they've ever
been that said America's top diplomat reports he is hopeful that North Korea
will take major steps to completely give up its nukes before the end of President
Trump's first term Secretary of State Mike Pompeo talking with officials in
Seoul today US allies in the region were apparently surprised when President
Trump came out and said that he was stopping US war games as he put it with
South Korea more on that in a moment first the president tweeted this morning
about his roughly five hours of talks with the North Korean leader just landed
a long trip but everybody can now feel much safer than the day I took office
there is no longer a nuclear threat from North Korea meeting with Kim jong-un was
an interesting and very positive experience
north Korea has great potential for the future well obviously at least part of
that is not right the nuke threat is very real the joint statement both
president Trump and dictator Kim jong-un signed yesterday fails to lay out how
North Korea will give up its nukes or how the US and its allies will check to
make sure that North Korea is keeping up its end of the bargain
the North Koreans haven't admitted what they have much less win and how they'll
supposedly get rid of them a clear reading of the facts indicates
the president made concessions in return for nothing concrete our senior foreign
affairs correspondent Greg Talcott is live in Seoul Gregg what else did
Secretary Pompeo say hi Shep yeah Secretary of State Bob Mayo is on
follow-up patrol following that summit involving President Trump in North
Korean leader Kim Jong hoon in Singapore he arrived a short time ago here in
Seoul he was met there by general Vincent Brooks he's the commander of US
forces in Korea speaking with reporters on the way up he says he expects to
start meeting again with the North Koreans in these are his words a week or
so he says while the president is in the
lead of negotiation he will be driving them forward secretary pushed back
against critics who said that there was no mention of verifiable or irreversible
in the summit's final communique he says he was confident that North Korea
understood there will be complete and in-depth verification of the
nuclearization in a few hours Shep the Secretary will be meeting with South
Korean president moon jae-in and others here and then he will move on to Beijing
where among others he will be speaking with according to the secretary the
leader of China president G what's the state-run media there in across the
border in Pyongyang saying about this summit fascinating stuff chef yeah just
about 35 miles north of where we are beyond the MZ the North Korean state
media is laying out the summit in its vision to its residents and they say a
couple of things first of all they get it out there all across the propaganda
newspaper four pages color pictures president from standing next that North
Korean leader Kim jong-un they are not going to let this moment pass for their
locals in their version of the summit the possibility of lifting sanctions
against North Korea is raised as for their version of denuclearization they
described as step by stack along with complementary moves by the other side
this is not exactly how it's been described by the US different strokes
different folks finally a chef of possible visits from
the Lear's to either capital Pyongyang and Washington DC that is raised as well
it seems like this diplomatic love fest will continue for at least the
foreseeable future Becky Greg Greg Powell caught live tonight in Seoul
after President Trump announced the US military would halts military exercises
with South Korea a spokesman for America's forces in the region told Fox
News they hadn't received any orders to call off anything our national security
correspondent Jennifer Griffin with the news live at the Pentagon any word from
the Pentagon and whether these exercises are as the president said canceled not
yet chef there's been a great deal of confusion here at the Pentagon the
military is awaiting guidance from the White House in the meantime our
colleague Bret Baier had an excessive with President Trump on
board Air Force one on the way back from Singapore is the military drawing down
in South Korea you kind of hinted at that and is there going to be this kind
of tit-for-tat no it's not drawing down at all in fact honestly was never
discussed I'm sure he'd like that it was never on the table we have 32,000
soldiers in South Korea I'd like to get them home I would like to but it is not
on the table right now at the appropriate time it will be the
president has brought up repeatedly in the past few days the cost of these
large-scale training exercises especially the flight of b-52 and b-1
bombers based in guam whether the bombers come from Guam nearby I said oh
great nearby where's nearby six and a half hours six
and a half hours it's a long time for these big massive planes to be flying to
South Korea to practice and then drop bombs all over the place and then go
back to Guam I know a lot about airplanes it's very expensive remember
chef in the mid 90s the US military did suspend training exercises with South
Korea during previous attempts to halt North Korea's nuclear program and then
of course had to reverse that decision there are it's not just one series of
exercises a year the United States really carries out a few different
military exercises with South Korea and and there's one I think scheduled for
late summer right that's right there are basically four major exercises military
exercises with South Korea including a large exercise slated for August which
involves 17,500 US troops and an additional 3,000 US troops coming from
the United States that exercise is mostly done using computers the big
three are in the spring all eyes tomorrow will be on the confirmation
hearing however of the president's next ambassador to South Korea Admiral Harry
Harris who just retired from the US Pacific Command he's a well known Hawk
regarding North Korea and a harsh critic of Kim jong-un I do think that he is
after reunification under a single communist system so he's after what his
grandfather failed to do and his father failed to do that was
testimony from February you can watch Brett's complete interview with the
president tonight at 6:00 p.m. Eastern chef Jennifer thanks our troops are not
in South Korea solely to protect South Korea they're there to protect the
United States and its interests as well that observation from gordon shang who
has written all about North Korea's nuke s-- he now says the president
misunderstands our role overseas and that suspending the military training
exercises is extremely ill-advised I'll ask him about that coming up from the
Fox News deck on this Wednesday afternoon
