Page 8 - Attack Mueller News Today

Hes going to fight back. hes going to attack mueller. the leak, obamas fbi for doing wiretapping just as trump would say just as i said they were doing so it is going to be an interesting response i think to see from trump. >> bill crystal, thank you so much. so much going on. vice president pence has just arrived on capitol hill. well be covering that all day on msnbc. and meanwhile a big anniversary on this program today. "morning joe" debuted ten years ago. changing the landscape of the telev...

Connect the dots here. what does this say to you about the special counsel robert mueller, particularly the obstruction of justice. >> if they werent afraid of comey, they wouldnt keep talking about him. theyre going after obstruction of justice and charges. pau because of the flight they were on when donald trump jr. came out and said the meeting was about adoption and wasnt about adopti adoption. and donald trump helped him with that statement. what was that meeting about and was donald trump ...

Office and whether this one-on-one meeting happened between mueller and comey. comey testified, laid all this out to congress about the one-on-one meeting but trump said to us, we interviewed him last month and he said that meeting had not happened. even basic questions like that will require interviewing a lot of folks in the white house and are part of the administration. >> i wonder if your reporting backs up the axios reporting that the trump legal team is trying to adopt a conciliatory tone...

Could reach into his and his familys finances. trump has been fuming about the probe in recent weeks as he has been informed about the legal questions he and his family could face. his primary focus is why should his deals for many years, he was disturbed after learning that bob mueller would be able to access several years of his tax returns. again this just moments ago from "the washington post." joining us now is one of the stories who just broke it -- excuse me, were getting ashley parker on...

He has told aides he was especially disturbed after learning that bob mueller would be able to access several years of his tax returns. again this just moments ago from "the washington post." joining us now is one of the reporters who has just broken this story, ashley parker -- oh, excuse me, were getting ashley parker on the phone right now. a little tease ahead there. in terms of the post reporting here, obviously the headline is about trying to attack muellers investigation going after his c...

That fact that theres investigation into obstruction of justice. the lawyer said this. fbi leak of information regarding the president is outrageous, inexcusable, illegal. the president lashed out against special counsel, called the investigation a witch-hunt again and seemed to attack muellers team by calling them very bad and conflicted people. the president is also pushing this narrative, that part of the investigation is somehow over. quote, they made up a phony collusion with the russians s...

Also talking about a potential interview with special counsel robert mueller against the advice of his lawyers. >> i would love to speak, i would love to. nobody wants to speak more than me against my lawyers because most lawyers say never speak on anything. i would love to speak because weve done nothing wrong. there was no collusion with the russians, there was nothing. there was no obstruction, everybody sees it now and it is a pure witch hunt. right now its a pure witch hunt. >> reporter: sa...

Joke, hannity dropped it. thats how it works. they find another way to attack mueller but the message is always the same. see these mueller gate banners from hannity the other night? it says on screen investigating the investigators. fox message is trump is the victim of a deep-state plot to ruin his presidency and remember, the president watches this stuff and reacts to it. so one day he tweets during "fox and friends" that the missing te text messages is one of the biggest stories in a long ti...

To essentially serve as a surrogate and attack mueller where he could not. look. i think this is all indicative of why james comey never came out and said you are not under investigation because by that point by the time that he actually had spoken to trump and by the time that he testified before congress, trump had already asked him to drop the investigation into michael flynn. trump asked him for loyalty. these are thing that is james comey was considering potentially most likely when he was ...

President can file a lawsuit. but that may be delayed. but that flies in the face of the commitment by the lawyers that they want it done quickly. so i think mueller has the leverage advantage. but he doesnt want to seem like a bully. he doesnt want to seem like hes doing something that interferes with the operation of the president. >> i think the leverage the president has plenty of leverage here. look how much the republicans have been attack mueller. he could turn this into mueller overstati...
