There is a statement coming so well update you as soon as we get it. you and i have been working the phone since about 6:30 this morning when this broke. the white house taking the posture that this doesnt have anything to do with the president. of course the legal documents make that argument a lot more complicated, hallie. >> theres another piece of this indictment that sanders responded to. talking about how after the july 22nd, 2016 release of those stolen e-mails by wikileaks, contacting st...

Think its interesting theres not a global indictment. the white house is right about conspiracy. you think about it. it would be difficult to prove a conspiracy case with wikileaks when the head of wikileaks who was doing these things is in the ecuador ambassador and not talking to anybody in london. they didnt get over their skis in this indictment. it is tight and controlled and provable. it puts roger stone in a difficult position. he cant say i -- those documents arent mine. they are. theyre...

We understand manaforts wife is in the courtroom. this is a hearing where the judge wants to be informed about this dispute between manafort and the mueller prosecutors about whether manafort lied and whether his plea deal should be voided as a result. the documents were heavy relack redacted. more than half were redacted. i think its significant. only because, look, manafort and stone go back decades. they worked on campaigns together. manafort had a good idea about it. they were friends. we do...

And was -- put directly, was this candidate trump who directed this of roger stone. and she denied that that was the case but said, look, i havent read through any of the documents here. bottom line, she is making the argument this has nothing to do with candidate trump, president trump. i believe we have that sound as well. lets take a listen. okay, we dont have that sound. but thats a summary of what she basically said. so i think thats what you can anticipate from sarah sanders throughout the...

The trump campaign who was asking what else does wiki locks have and the documents say that then stone tried to prod wikileaks. perhaps most damaging, when he was called to testify before congress, stone urged him to plead the fifth and even evoked the name of the character from one of the godfather movies who lies to congress. this is what is known as an initial appearance. hell be advised formally of the charges against him. and then the procedure will start to bring him back to washington, d....

President is saying, kind of the truth of the marty of what wett weve been discussing? >> its clear just because they say stone came off the payrolls in august of 2015 didnt mean he didnt stay on as an adviser and he wasnt in close contact with the president. paragraph 21, i know were reading behind papers a lot today, this gets into what exactly roger stone lied about to the house committee. this really flies in the face of what his lawyer is saying when he tried to say that what he didnt -- wh...

Based on what you know that robert mueller and his team would be putting pressure on roger stone to do just that? >> absolutely. no question about it. first of all back to the search warrant point. it does explain why they went and arrested him at 6:00 a.m. that comes across much better. the point is you can either subpoena documents or you can issue a search warrant. search warrant is where you have a reasonable fear that things may be compromised, removed, destroyed, et cetera. consequently, t...

Documents to the house committee, and that was a lie, and here are all the documents that, in fact, you did have. so when the time comes for the mueller team to sit down with roger stone and his lawyer, because now that hes been arrested, he has a lawyer. nobody will talk to him without a lawyer. they probably havent been doing that for a while, but when they sit down with roger and his lawyer, they almost lay it out. just like you put a big white board. you said this, and that was a lie. and he...
