Paul Manafort is suing the Department of Justice. The suit challenges the authority of Special Counsel Robert Mueller and alleges the Justice Department violated the law in appointing Mueller. Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN) reacts to the breaking news.

"I think we are going to find out this is one of the most awful and disgusting periods in the history of American government," said Cohen.
On Wednesday bipartisan congressional leaders gathered at the White House to meet with OMB Director Mick Mulvaney to discuss the budget deal ahead of the January 19 deadline. Cohen says he expects a deal to be reached, and a government shutdown will be avoided.
