Used to describe chairman nunes, straight shooter, man of integrity, a person who wont stand down. to davids point, people can be dragged into a white house web. is that whats happening to chairman nunes? >> i think chairman nunes is finding out what happens in the enormity and the bright lights ofn investigation like this. good for chairman nunes for going home and talking to his constituents. i think too many members are probably going to run for the hills. im glad at least hes trying to get t...

Or colluding with him or giving himself in limb information that backed up the presidents tweet and not giving it to anyone else, how big of a sfwloob? >> it is politically interesting but its nowhere near the problem tha the russians can do in our next election by pitting malware into our voting machines and so forth over the course of the next period of time before the next election. theres a real danger here. 25%, approximately, of our voting machines in the united states do t not have paper ...

Would want to prosecute him for it? >> you dont often hear criminal against attorneys say my client has a story to tell unless that attorney is looking for immunity for his client and he does have a story, a story that will implicate somebody else. now, who the somebody else is, of course, we wont know until he testifies. so thats an important statement. but theres another thing that could happen here, elin, we have to pay attention to. which is how will the president and white house act? will t...

Michael flynn under the logan act. but these kind of episodes do matter. in particular, if the national security adviser has publicly represented himself as having public conversations that he misdescribes, that hurts him with the public and the respect he commands outside. very importantly here, if he lied to the vice president, that is a huge issue within the white house. you know, this white house has already reportedly had -- there are various stories, politico has one out today, about the t...
