Agent? >> listen, i am reserving all judgment until we finish the investigation. the charge of this investigation was to look at was there a level 6 collaboration or collusion between either campaign and the russians during the 2016 election. >> martha: we are still seeking an answer to that last question. do you have a time frame you? know, when you say you want it to be over? how much longer do you think you will be? >> in a lot of ways that will depend on when mueller finishes the legal proce...

Would have gotten to the point where you had to kick it up to the president because you would have known better. >> i think betty thompson, the chair of this hearing, was asking about the cages and she said theyre not cages, theyre facilities. i mean, she kept pushing back against that. jacob soboroff from our team, nbc news and msnbc said they were cages. hes seen them himself. >> anyone who has watched jacobs coverage which is incredible knows exactly whats happening. there were kids that had ...

Milestone here. lets get some real prosecutorial experience here so we know what were doing, not just a bunch of political back and forth. >> i think part of this, too, we dont yet know what the mueller report is going to say and how much of that is going to be public. this could be an attempt by some of the democrats to obtain some of that material that they then have the ability to release and make public, things that they are subpoenaing in a way that mueller and his conclusions may not be fu...

They called rod rosenstein and other things out as well. washington now gets to the conclusions before it starts asking the questions. to the point about the capability of the democrats, the process, adam schiff, chairman of the intelligence committee, announcing hes now hired daniel goldman, former prosecutor in the southern district of new york, has a history of prosecuting organized crime cases to help with their investigation. that is one of the legitimate questions, how will the democrats s...

Whats not? perhaps thats the best question. >> i guess, bill, the concerns here are it is justice department policy that if you dont charge a person with a crime, you dont go public with the evidence. it is also federal law that if something is classified and counter intelligence investigations are classified. weve been told the mueller probe was a counter intelligence matter. those things are not supposed to become public. and with all due respect to my old friend jim comey, i think he is the w...

Can tell the american public, we have a duty to report. just like you do, wolf. we have a duty to report what actually happened. >> if proven true, the allegation in this article, would you consider that an impeachable offense? >> i wouldnt leap to that. "a," i havent read the article, and as i said, im somebody who really believes in doing my homework, collecting the facts and evidence then we can drew legal conclusions with legal counsel. >> very long article. very important article. very well...

Want to wait until we hear from special counsel mueller and we can put all the evidence together. i dont want to jump to conclusions, either, but when you think about 37 people around him have been cited, its just hard to think that he didnt know anything about it when hes a definite hands-on person. >> what more -- i would wonder what evidence you think proves this and what you think what else could come out or why you dont want to make that leap if there is already evidence that you see. >> i ...

And he brought the checks with him and different things like that, to me it seemed like mr. trump was trying to influence the elections and the catch and kill stories and things like that involving stormy daniels and the other woman that has me very concerned. >> you want to see it in sort of stone, though, of the mueller report? >> sure. i mean, i dont want to jump to conclusions even though everything is pointed in that direction, that he did no more than hes definitely admitting to. youve see...

Now? is this setting up potentially an impeachment proceeding in the house of representatives? >> reporter: theyre not going to draw conclusions or say theyre planning on impeaching this president. right now they want to have this investigation which is going to carry on for weeks and weeks and months and dominate much of the work for the house judiciary committee and also could be very distracting for the white house and all the entities this broad request of documents is demanding. now, these ...

Attorney general because that was part of his original charge. muellers original charge was to investigate that among several other things. i think you will reach conclusions about that and they will become public. if they dont say anything incriminating on that score, i wonder how much wind will remain in the sales of that charge and some others. >> bret: its important to point out we dont know what we dont know and the process goes to the attorney general. when that happens, we dont know. othe...
