Right after news broke that russia had hacked the dnc last year, russian leaders had a conversation that was caught on tape. according to "the washington post," house majority leader kevin mccarthy said, theres two people i think putin paid, rohrbacher and trump. thats congressman dana rohrbacher. on wednesday mccarthy said it was, quote, a bad attempt at a joke, thats all. thats all there is to it. meanwhile, some republicans defended trump for allegedly asking the former fbi director to end hi...

Story? because these guys dont mean a lot of the things they said. but with flynn, theres clearly this "i cant quit you, babe" element to this. and its incredible how much more loyal hes been to mike flynn than to his three wives. but i think the bottom line here with trump, which is almost always simpler and less conspiratorial than you need to start with. if youre not trying to start something in court, he doesnt like to say hes wrong and he likes to dance with -- and flynn was a zealot and co...

At the same time. and in the end, if there is, in fact, evidence, evidence of something thats gone wrong, which i think that there has, but i cant prove that. so until i can, and without that evidence, impeachment is not an option right now. i agree with speaker -- im sorry, leader pelosi. >> you know, kareen, i expect you disagree with that. we have some evidence, donald trumps own words. he practically, fairly boasted to nbcs own lester holt that the reason he fired jim koims becau comey becau...

And i would say, look, this is happening. this concerns me. and their job in many cases was to allay my fears. look, it is a big thing. and trust is -- we would always call it, scott and his team, we would call it the circle of trust. and there was just so few people who knew what i was doing, knew my name, and you just have to trust them. and something as simple and innocuous as something that shows up in the news as major ramifications in the ability of the fbi or the cia to convince people li...

Jeopardy, you not only risk that life, you risk the ability to recruit, you risk the ability to retain people who are doing this. and you know, so much of this is just built on trust and word of mouth. and it certainly sets things back. >> and one does not expect that the president of the united states, the commander in chief, would be the one to put people in jeopardy in that way. lets listen to senator ben sasse, who was quite strong on this on cnn on tuesday, talking about that very thing. >>...

Important. many people confuse the collusion with the obstruction of justice. the collusion may take years of investigative reporting to come to some fruition. but the obstruction of justice is something we separate from that and we look at that alone. that occurred when he fired comey for investigating him. that will be with him as long as he is president. and he can be impeached for it. now, i assure you, notwithstanding anything democrats will say or republicans will say, there will be an imp...

Vice president, someone he apparently is still talking to and telling him to stay strong? >> well, did he lie to the vice president, or is that the alibi story? because these guys dont mean a lot of the things they said. but with flynn, theres clearly this "i cant quit you, babe" element to this. and its incredible how much more loyal hes been to mike flynn than to his three wives. but i think the bottom line here with trump, which is almost always simpler and less conspiratorial than you need t...

Americans, i would hope, to see a president make the conduct of the press the issue in american life instead of real important existing policy, fact, et cetera. >> see, thats the whole thing. thats what people around the country see. >> many people do. >> the way they see him fighting for jobs, the way they see him standing up on the world stage, whether it be syria or north korea, thats my whole point. people outside of this new york and washington corridor, outside of the 24/7 cable news cycle...

Everyone tes in. that is the marker that the president is using to decide whether or not sean spicer is doing a great job as ashley parker and bob costa of the "washington post" reported. clearly you can make a sound argument that he has a credit ability issue. given the amount of times they have shaded the truth on a number of different issues. the mike flynn controversy, the idea that he was a volunteer when he was a policy adviser. paul manafort playing a limited role. so those were pretty ja...

Cannot get up and make them represent us. i see you shaking your head. tell me the last time congress represented you and done something that was right for you. they would never have given you obamacare if they represented you probably. >> scott. >> you know, it is not true. its not true. the bottom line is, you know, as she said, he has both houses. he gets on twitter. he rants and raves and says constantly get on board or lose your seat. plain and simple. he threatens people. it is wrong. >> h...
