What we dont know. >> well, first to what we know. look, president trump almost acknowledging that there was mixed messages last week surrounding his decision to fire james comey. he said my press team cannot speak with 100% accuracy. they cant know what is in my head at all times. similar to what we heard at the podium and from the vice president, conflicting with what the president said himself. but we also know that he thinks that the messaging was bought that, they were prepared effectively ...

The house have. and to me, its remarkable that the us white house spokesman would not confirm or deny the accuracy of the presidents tweet and statement on friday morning. chris: did comey ever tell you, as he apparently told senators grassley and feinstein as they revealed it today in a public session, that the president, in fact, is not a target of the investigation? >> im not going to get into the specifics of what director comey has talked with me about. what he has said and it was reinforce...
