because his testimony was wrong. does this attack add up to you? no, it doesn t. i mean, mueller has not testified. as a matter of fact, that s one of the disagreements that had been sort of sort at a stalemate here in washington, the democrats want him to testify. he says he doesn t want to. so the president, i m not sure what he s referring to. perhaps he s talking about a letter that mueller wrote to barr to sort of get him to clarify what had been some misleading comments from the attorney general. maybe that s what the president is talking about. but i had to scratch my head a little bit when i saw that interview. let s talk about that letter because mueller wrote a letter to ag barr raising concerns about barr s four-page summary. this is a key line from it. i want to get you to respond to, evan. he said the summary letter that the department sent to congress released to the public did not fully capture the context, nature and substance of this office s work and conclusions
add up to you? no, it doesn t. i mean, mueller has not testified. as a matter of fact, that s one of the disagreements that had been sort of sort at a stalemate here in washington, the democrats want him to testify. he says he doesn t want to. so the president, i m not sure what he s referring to. perhaps he s talking about a letter that mueller wrote to barr to sort of get him to clarify what had been some misleading comments from the attorney general. maybe that s what the president is talking about. but i had to scratch my head a little bit when i saw that interview. well, let s talk about that letter because mueller wrote a letter to a.g. barr, raising concerns about barr s four-page summary. this is a key line from it. i want to get you to respond to, evan. he said the summary letter that the department sent to congress released to the public did not fully capture the context, nature and substance of this office s work and conclusions. the context, nature and substance. that s
reading a flat transcript on a page doesn t deliver. yeah, absolutely. i mean, i ve listened to dozens and dozens of recordings of organized crime and other people, and, you know, if you play a recording for a jury, i mean, every trial lawyer knows this, it just brings home what is happening in a way that a transcript doesn t. this shows you, you know, we ve seen this again even with mueller s ten-minute press conference. hearing words, hearing someone speak as opposed to reading a report is so compelling. and this is why congress needs to get going as best they can on having witnesses, whether it be playing recordings like this. i think they should subpoena dowd. i really don t see any barrier to that. i m not saying he ll just willingly come but there, frankly, are not a lot of legitimate privileges he could invoke on that. and having mueller testify, even though he doesn t want to. eugene, it won t surprise you to learn that, shall we say, fox news did not dwell on this story

counsel s office that actually creates this policy and puts it into the federal register. all of that stuff takes time. and in the past when we ve seen the president delay some of these proposals, it s because they re simply not ready to be implemented, not because he doesn t want to. and that could happen here, too. thanks so much, kayla tausche, joining us from washington. let s head to the president where he and world leaders are in normandy, france, to commemorate the 75th anniversary of d-day. hallie jackson has been traveling with the president all week. hallie, what can you tell us about the ceremony? how was president trump received? listen, i spoke with lawmakers on both sides of the aisle just a few moments ago. there was a big congressional delegation that travelled in from washington. and both a democrat and a republican that i talked with both said they felt president trump met the moment, at least today, on stage there talking about the importance of the alliance. t
