>> president trump is wrong. this report does not amount to a so-called total exoneration. special counsel mueller was clear that his report, quote, does not exonerate, close quote, the president. the special counsel spent 22 months on covering evidence of obstruction and other misconduct. attorney general barr, who auditioned for his role with an open memorandum, suggesting that the obstruction investigation was unconscionable, and that a president -- and that it was almost impossible for any p...

However, there are some clues there that we can certainly walk away from and one of them is that key fact, that at this point we have no indictments that have come out of what we know so far, so that certainly made some people feel a little more comfortable or at least prepared we may not see anything extremely earth shattering when it comes to potential charges. however, they are still waiting and watching for those initial conclusions, fred. >> all right, polo sandoval, thank you so much. st...

Election. and i cant believe it. but lindsey graham last night at mar-a-lago said he wanted to continue investigating hillary clinton. and the clinton e-mails. its just -- its absolutely rid -- its absolutely ridiculous. and i think the democrats have a constitutional responsibility to continue to conduct oversight of this administration. and just because the republicans didnt do it doesnt mean the democrats shouldnt. thats exactly what they should do and let the facts like robert mueller -- let...

Does say that there were multiple efforts from russian-affiliated individuals to assist the trump campaign and there was outreach. >> which is no surprise. campaign officials are often the targets of foreign intelligence services, because obvioften the inexperienced or lack appropriate counterintelligence knowledge to know what to do when people reach out to them. so thats not unusual. what is unusual, of course, is that complain officials lied about those contacts, which we know based upon the ...

Him. he has the highest indictment rate than any other president. others have had it. barack obama went eight years and none of his advisers were indicted. we didnt know until late in the day that bob mueller was going to finish his entire probe without incident. >> we should note something here, julia, that barr makes. aside from the principal conclusions, he says this. this is sort of directed by the regulations at issues. he said they provide you with the description and explanation of instan...

Of the russian efforts, the disinformation efforts, the interference with the 2016 election. according to this letter, one of the main conclusions is that they couldnt find evidence that anybody, any u.s. person, anybody associated with the campaign, anybody associated with the president was involved with that disinformation campaign. i think thats a very important thing for the justice department to explain, for bill barr to explain as a result of this investigation. obviously, as youve noted r...

Rules and you dont talk a lot about things that you cant prove. so the whole idea of a wide ranging report is a little bit against the nature of federal prosecutors to begin with. but, you know, it is what it is and theres probably a pretty voluminous report that exists out there. i think that so far, all the indications are that, you know, this has been responsibly handled. and we really dont know until -- you know, its also not clear to me that the public is going to see exactly what goes to c...

Wants all of her members to be looped in because she wants the public to ultimately know what is in this report and why they made the conclusions that they made and that comes with knowing what the evidence was and why mueller made the decisions that he made. >> is this a straw man? has there black and blue an exclusive gang of eight offering that she is turning down or setting up we will not accept any classified information and so far no one has asked her? >> it sounds like the latter. >> okay...
