Executive privilege is exerted and things that he cant talk about in an open session. he told his story but at the same time -- >> you know, comey left a lot of bread crumbs out there about sessions saying that we knew a couple weeks before he was likely to recuse himself but there was something i know that was problematic about sessions that i cant tell you in an open session. so the question is, is that about extra meetings that the attorney general might have had with kislyak. >> the ambassad...

Know that it would be charged by a lawyer in that. its in the court of public opinion of demonstrating further bullying tactics. >> listening to james comeys testimony yesterday, a lot of us nonlawyers and citizen journalists, see what james comey testified to yesterday and it seems like hes alleging obstruction of justice on the part of the president, the president trying to impede or stop that investigation. as a former u.s. attorney, is that what you heard in terms of james comeys allegations...

The last 24 hours, and will for the next receive or seven months, this is a very little piece of a very big jigsaw puzzle. >> i want to get to this quickly and talk about the attorney general, jeff sessions. because the senators learned something in the closed-door meeting. what did they possibly learn today? >> theyve learned about another potential meeting between sessions and the russians. and we dont know anything more about that, other than what jim sciutto has reported. and i think this ra...

Another one of donald trumps associates who came up yesterday in the comey testimony. thats michael flynn. i wonder if anything that the president said today basically for the first time that i can recall in public saying i never said that, i never -- really sort of denying in both his personal attorneys statements yesterday and today, really denying some of the substance for the first time of the comey mem kn memos which have sort of been in the news in the water now for several weeks. i wonder...

About how far weve tumbled as a republican party basically standing by and some republicans offering up lame excuses for a president who refuses to press to get to the bottom of ties between trumps orbit and are russia. >> right, if theyre not guilty of anything or if its just satellites, he seems to do everything humanly possible to make it appear as though theres a there, there. we remember when john mccain looked into putins eyes and saw kgb and dont trust these guys. >> george w. bush, my ol...

But he admitted, you know, i didnt do that. the other thing that was so interesting was he kept giving us these little bread crumbs today about areas that perhaps the special counsel will be looking at. and in terms of the attorney general sessions, he said, you know, that his role in the russia probe may be more problematic than we know, but he could not discuss it publicly. >> but it was also clear that to the point about why didnt he go to other people. earlier on barack obama was still presi...

Another point about this bank, adds to the murkiness, i guess, there was, for example, a banker with the bank of new york who was deported back to russia accused of spying by the u.s. so, theres that, too. >> so many bread crumbs. keir simmons, thank you so much for all of your efforts today. susan, i want to bring you in. i think to americans the idea of a bank acting, you know, as almost a government actor the way it is in russia, is foreign. can you explain the relationship between vladimir p...
