Proceedings to begin. As of this morning are you . Look, id like to think i was a voice in the wilderness here at the length of this investigation and ive been part of it for the last three years, but clearly the needle is moving for many members and candidates for president of the United States. The continued obstruction by the president , less than subtle message from mr. Mueller yesterday, the weaponization of the Intelligence Community to go after the president s political enemies. You know,...

Want to trample on the Mueller Investigation because he may believe in it and doesnt want to have that slalegacy in the w that many former nixon aides did. Thats his main goal is to run out the clock by doing that. He doesnt want to dump on rosenstein on the way out the door and there are some republicans who cant stand rosenstein and he wouldnt he wouldnt do that either. He wouldnt take on mueller specifically. Eric swalwell tried to get him to take him on and he wouldnt and he said he agreed t...

He said i never get searched when i go into the white house. I can easily wear a recording device. They wouldnt know it is there. He was not joking. He was absolutely serious. And, in fact, he brought it up in the next meeting we had. All right. That is significant to say the least. Mccabe also went into more detail about rosenstein allegedly floating the idea, as you just heard, of using the 25th amendment possibly as a way to try to remove President Trump. That has the president s twitter fing...

Tonight by the Kennedy Family in hyannisport. As soon as we can bring you more information on that we will bring it during the hour. But go on now to the news of the week in the president ial campaign, beginning with a very simple fact. President s dont debate. But president ial candidates have to debate in order to win the presidency. A job where they then will not have to debate. Most american president s have been elected without ever debating. Debates do not actually test the skills necessar...

Some of the worsed. Mueller was very pointed on a number of issues. He said if the president had not committed a crime when it came to obstruction, they would have said so. Then went on about something about the legal office memo, this says a sitting president cannot be prosecuted for a crime. Today mueller indicated that was a major stumbling block in his investigation. Under Longstanding Department policy, a present president cannot be charged with a federal crime while he is in office. That i...

Good evening from new york. Im chris hayes. It was just yesterday that former special Counsel Robert Mueller in what was likely his last message to Congress Warned yet again about the specter of russian interference in our next election. Over the course of my career, i have seen a number of challenges to our democracy. The russian governments efforts to interfere in our election is among the most serious. That was not a hoax. The indictments we returned against the russians, two different ones w...

Trace. There were meetings at the Justice Department in which it was discussed whether the Vice President and cabinet could be brought together to remove the president. I never heard of it. Frankly, i find any suggestion of it to be absurd. Last night, our colleague, shelby and Ranking Member filed a text of a bipartisan bicameral legislative agreement. I talked to the president and the Vice President. I told him i knew it was not a catchall deal but a downpayment. Declare victory for the fundin...

Sanders, the white house gets a new press secretary and shes connected to the first lady. Just moments ago, we learned the acting head of customs and Border Protection, john sanders, is resigning. Although at this time, hes not saying why. And this all comes in the wake of reports of the shocking treatment of children at the u. S. Mexico border. Children in the care of the u. S. Government detained and left to care for themselves and each other. Kids under 10 years old in charge of toddlers, sle...

Im going to do a rachel thing. You know that thing you do when you have you have basically outlined a case, a situation and you bring on the guest who is the expert on this, who has been living with this subject much longer than you have and your first question is always did i get anything wrong . Yeah. Im going to take your tweet today, which summarized this week in syria, more economically than anyone and im going to present that to my guest and say you know, thats nerve racking because what i...

Whole truth, and nothing but the unqualified, unevasive truth is absolutely critical. He encouraged people to lie for him. He lied. I think he obstructed justice. I think theres a compelling case that he has, in fact, engaged in conduct that would be better for him to leave office than stay in office. Good morning. Welcome to am joy. Those are some republicans who voted to impeach and or convict then president bill clinton on obstruction of justice accusations related to his affair with then whi...
