Have all sorts of assertions, no real way to resolve them, and im afraid even if he sits in the chair, the house is not going to get a lot of information out of him for that reason. >> but in theory it would not cover issues of obstruction of justice, actual assertions of a crime, right? >> i think thats right. but again, whether its a crime or not is subject to a legal analysis and, you know, its just -- i think its going to be a mess. i think theyre unlikely to get a lot of good information fr...

Partisan voice for the democratic party and can be counted upon to parent the party line, whether its true or not. i thought the footage you have of them using the same phrases in response to the same stimuli, making the same assertions, being so blithely dismissive of 100 biden and joe biden participated in, as a sign of how the media has returned to its earlier incarnation of being simply a voice for a political force inside the united states. lets just be on it about it.or voices from the dem...

To don mcgahn. it doesnt apply by its own terms to other officials. the other thing is of the justice department has made clear that they are going to fight this tooth and nail. they are going to appeal this judges decision to the court of appeals. i suspect it could be some time before we have a final resolution as to whether john began to testify, let alone other witnesses. >> harris: what about this idea of the white house not letting people testify up with this broad usage of executive privi...

Vice for the democratic party and can be counted upon to go to the party line whether its true or not. and i thought the footage you had of uses the same phrases in response to the same stimuli, making the same assertions, being dismiss it of what hunter and joe biden participated in is a sign of how the media returned to the previous in carn nation of a voice -- incarnation of a political voice for the united states and for the removal of office of president trump. >> hannity: ari, you dealt wi...

Would have the right to invoke executive privilege where appropriate. >> this is significant. the white house is arguing absolute immunity and he doesnt have to respond to the subpoena. the court is saying, no, its a different branch of government. don mcgahn can come in and make valid assertions of privilege. hes allowed to do that. it doesnt mean he has to tell them absolutely everything they want to know and doesnt mean the government doesnt have executive privilege. going forward they have t...

Have an essential witness if the democrats want to go there. two, it blows a hole in the absolute immunity claim. judges are receptive to executive privilege or attorney general client privilege or fifth amendment assertions, right, there are certain reasons you can get away with not testifying, this absolute immunity, saying i dont even have to show up, judge jackson was really incredulous at the argument last month. i dont see her being receptive to this one bit and i think to your point, the ...

>> thats not true. pretty sure she doesnt have a say in that but again thats not true. what do you make of his reaction to her and how important is she in this narrative? help us connect the dots of why she has become a central figure. >> that interview first of all contained -- that interview with the president on fox contained a variety of conspiratorial assertions. its not out of character for him to behave this way. i can understand why they felt an affinity for the ambassador because what s...

You got to be careful how you respond onstage. and theyre not debates as you know. i mean this is a joke. theyre not debates. these are one-minute assertions. and so what i find myself doing -- and im not doing it anymore -- is sort of pulling back from countering attacks. and i just think that -- i just think that its important that you get an opportunity eventually to narrow down this field. when you have 10, 12 people on a stage and youre sitting there for two, three hours and, you know, 80% ...

Have you overcome -- >> yes, ive overcome in. look -- >> reporter: is that part of the issue? >> no, i dont think so at all. one of the things that is part of the issue is when you get friendly attacked by people who have just got finished saying nice things about you earlier, and its -- you got to be careful. you got to be careful how you respond on stage, and theyre not debates, as you know. i mean, this is a joke. theyre not debates. these are one minute assertions. and so what i find myself ...

Get covered and afford it. if they do like it, they can stay where they are. under the other plan we know best. everybody is out. >> democrats want to fight want a fighter. >> im a fighter. >> they havent seen that fighting spirit. >> thats not what the democrats in the polling say. some say that because maybe i have been polite in the debates. for example -- >> is that changing? >> well, im looking forward to a real debate. to getting a stage and debating. what we now have is one minute asserti...
