And that proved not to be true. and i think theres a lot of evidence that the president has a disconnect with the truth a lot. so i wouldnt -- his no-collusion assertions are persuasive for me. one of the things i thought was persuasive is what i saw with my own eyes in helsinki. to throw under the bus the intelligence agencies of the united states when youre standing next to a former kgb officer and saying you believe him. and when the kgb officer is asked a question by reuters, did you want hi...

Requires those people do. if you have honor, if you have not racist you will not work for this man and if you are you will. >> ill have you react to that. it has been a prohibition. it is beginning to erode a little bit. it is that it was more minimal than others. how challenging is it? here we are two years in. president hoping for six more years in the white house. is it hard to get people to work for him? >> it was hard from the begins of the campaign. he was a campaign adviser. it is an ongo...

Been, even though kelly joined the white house late in the process, when you look at how much possible -- evidence of possible obstruction there is, it continued into the summer. the constant -- the constant attacks on mueller. the shifting stories about what really went on. i dont think theres any reason to believe that kelly himself is suspected of any wrongdoing. but the fact that they talked to him is very consistent with how mueller has operated. >> laura, rudy guiliani told cnn that muelle...

If stone is making the same fifth amendment assertions to special counsel that hes made to our judiciary committee then i expect they will litigate that. i think hes dramatically over sa stated his first amendment rights here. i would expect this will continue the mueller investigation for some time while they sort through how to get access to documents from an important witness like him. >> you dont expect the republicans who run the committee in the senate to put force behind this request from...

That suggests there may be unknown witnesses that the special counsel investigation has talked to and maybe still is talking to and maybe is still talking to in trumps circle. finally, youve got the factual predicate of one of his assertions about flynn is that flynn testified first hand about interactions between the trump transition team and russian government officials. that may be not collusion but it makes trumps no collusion argument pretty threadbare when they are asserting that interacti...

Afterwards -- speaker ryan questioned and said pejorative things about them. but i havent heard any republicans talk about, we need to figure out what happened here and make sure that it didnt happen again if people are saying that their votes were basically stolen from them. >> yeah. its a baffling -- i dont understand, honestly, why that would happen. but your point about california is particularly well taken, because that is also a state in which the president of the united states alleged tha...

Hes intimidating people. this is whats wrong with the special prosecutors counsels, they think theyre god. the only trust that exists, even if theres a lot of doubt about it. >> beyond this being rich for rudy giuliani, the former d.a., who im sure pressured a witness or two to cooperate with the prosecutor, beyond the richness of that, is there anything legally unethical for a special prosecutor to offer leniency in effect, although this agreement, we dont know what the leniency is, but to offe...

There are e-mails. you see it today in the information where there are written communications. and you can be sure that they are not accusing paul manafort with lying just based on the testimony of others. so when donald trump claims that everybody else is lying, and that robert mueller is forcing people to lie, hes playing a very dangerous game because at some point this documentary evidence is going to come out. and it is going to corroborate the allegations and assertions and testimony of the...

Pieces of evidence that are showing the outlines of a collusion case. the reason why they are playing with fire is that will come out. were starting to see jerome corsi and the e-mails between him and roger stone that reflect that roger stone knew about the wikileaks information and knew about their plans and we see michael cohen lied about trump tower moscow and the president, at a minimum was misleadi ining about his business dealings. the danger here is its not over. what we have seen from ro...
