He wouldnt be in this job if it werent for nepotism, and this is why you have nepotism laws. and, you know, i give jared kushner for example on prison reform you talked to our colleague jan jones who gives him great kudos on how he worked with van on prison reform. something he knew an awful lot about, learned an awful lot more about and managed to get bipartisan support for. but i think he doesnt do himself any good when he refuses to answer these basic questions, for example, on the birtherism...

And thats an awfully specific number but dont say who is telling them this, and the reason they lost the authority, i think, for us to believe them is because kirsten nielsen, the head of homeland security said we do not have a policy of separating families at the border, period. thats what she tweeted out on june 17th. millions of people in their own lying eyes were told they were wrong, so when they put out the so-called fact sheet it doesnt ring necessarily true to people. >> thats absolutely...

Said, and abowith what you said. and i appreciate you saying that there is no rule that forces this to go forward. we need to have a full investigation. we need to hold off a vote in the senate until there is time for a full exploration of this. if he is innocent, we need to see that. if hes guilty, we need to see that. and the fact about the memos that were stolen from the democrats that he says, oh, i didnt know, that doesnt ring true to me. so there are a lot of issues besides this one that h...

Call them. but when you have a nominee whose credibility has already been very successfully challenged as a truth teller in that hearing, and today he issues a statement denying these accusations, hes issuing that statement after a confirmation hearing as significantly weakened his correct. >> yes, i agree with everything lisa said and with what you said, and i appreciate you saying that there is no rule that forces this to go forward. we need to have a full investigation. we need to hold off a ...

That doesnt ring true to me. there are a lot of issues besides this one that have been sort of shuffled under the rug and need to be explored. i would urge this woman. i know how hard it must be to come forward, but i really hope you will. i am pleading with you to come forward and speak out on this because there is so much at stake. the times are different now the "metoo movement has made you able to be heard and believed in a way that anita hill didnt have a chance for. so please come forward....

He could lie about things that dont matter and thats not going to get trump prosecuted for perjury. >> because its not a material -- >> exactly. it needs to be material. so dowd, by saying that, by saying youre going to end up in an orange jump suit or some version of that, hes saying trump is going to lie about things that have a real impact on the investigation. and what that tells me is that he thinks trump knows things that would have an effect on the investigation. so this whole claim of tr...

Things that have a real impact on the investigation. and what that tells me is that he thinks trump knows things that would have an effect on the investigation. so this whole claim of trump knows nothing about collusion, no conversations with russians, that just doesnt ring true with what dowd is saying here about the back story. >> were going to have to squeeze in a break here. mimi rocca and jason johnson, jason is going to come back, thank you both for joining us. coming up, the president w...

Lawyer. you know, this is unbelievable. by the way, it occurs to me that this really sort of fills in the blanks on what they mean by saying theyre concerned about a perjury trap. what theyre essentially saying is they cant trust their own client to get to the truth. so theyre afraid that he will set a trap for himself. >> i hate to say that duh. everybody knows that, it seems, but maybe the president himself. but you got to get back the what you were saying. what do you mean that you say the pr...
