Because now he is becoming a political target. democrats in dock are already angling to have him stripped of his security clearance. its not clear that would be successful. but that adds another layer of political complication for the white house. jared kushner is someone who very rarely appears or speaks publically. he operates behind the scenes. but now congressional democrats have a reason to haul him before congress and there is not much republicans or the white house can do to justify withh...

Of the intel committee. theyre doing the work -- mueller is doing his work. democrats should get back to the front lines of health care and defending americans of all types, economic backgrounds, social backgrounds. that to me is the most important thing. and if i may, let me make a quick point. i think that donald trump probably waived the clearance requirements for jared kushner. having been through as i think elise has, an fs-86, which listeners dont really need to understand other than its a...

The reason for that is this appears to come from someone showing or reading off the new fs 86. the biggest problem is that kushner now has a third meeting left off a form that says at the top if you omit things you are committing a felony. >> yeah. theres a distinct someones getting thrown under the bus quality to this, because this isnt, you know, unlike the leaks that we supposedly received from the national security apparatus, this comes from the white house. and its very difficult i think lo...

Sam, theres this interesting theory floating around that the sources behind this story, putting things on donald, jr., are actually people around jared kushner. the reason for that is this appears to come from someone showing or reading off the new fs 86. the biggest problem is that kushner now has a third meeting left off a form that says at the top if you omit things you are committing a felony. >> yeah. theres a distinct someones getting thrown under the bus quality to this, because this isnt...

Thanks for coming in. michael, we were listening to sheldon whitehouse. he said it to wolf and this morning, the theory he thinks michael flynn is working with the fbi. do you agree? >> its hard to know. flynn surely has the most expore sure. hes goat the eastern district of virginia, which mueller is going to take over, an investigation into his involvement with turkey and failing to register urnds the foreign agent registration act. its a mature investigation. they have been subpoenaing record...

Clearance application about two more international trips. both made during the presidential campaign. one of the trips involving a nuclear russian deal worth $100 billion in saudi arabia. and tonight, top democrats on the house oversight and foreign affairs committees are demanding more documents from flynn. the committees letter, which weve obtained, also charges -- and get this, they say flynn did not disclose a single meeting with a foreign government official for seven years. on page 74 of t...

Foreign dignitaries and ambassadors and they said no reason to put it on your fs-86. we know that he briefly had interaction at a reception after a speech. those arent contact -- contacts dont equal collusion. >> one of the things that i think david is appropriately turning to is the underlying questions about what the contacts, appropriate, inappropriate were between trump officials and russia at different points. the difficult for sessions is he will face though questions and then hell have to...

Any of it was criminal, and, if so, who might be at fault. and its only once theyve put together that picture that they will make final decisions about what and who to charge. so they may be looking at financial transactions. we certainly think they are. likely, they will be looking into whether money laundering occurred in the context of some of these other crimes. also, whether there were false statements made by people. we have heard a lot about fs-86, the forms people fill out for security c...

David, and mark, lets begin but, these reports that sessions may have had another undisclosed meeting with the russian ambassador, if true, can it be a simple examination that jeff sessions simply forgot? >> im not sure i would say forgot, but this is a continuing problem with this administration. every time they seem to owe met something for smen some about reason it has to do with russia. and the fostory that cnn first reported that jeff can sessions on the national security questionnaire that...

Russians about establishing a back channel and didnt reveal that, thats a real problem. but i think there ought to be a review of his security clearance to find out whether he was truthful, whether he was candid. if not, theres no way he can maintain that kind of a clearance. >> is this the kind of case where security should be revoked? >> if there was material evidence left off the form fs-86 -- ive had clearance since the reagan era off and on and you have to detail any russian contacts that y...
