Given Mueller News Today

Relishing that, as well. Boris sanchez at the white house, thank you. Lets dig into the poll numbers with our guests, former u. S. Attorney and former Deputy Attorney general harry litman and kelly jane torrance. Guys, the polls for neil gorsuch showed he had 29 . Why do you think kavanaghs support at just 37 is so low . I think it actually reflects the overall support for the president which is low and falling. Of course, they havent heard from kavanagh yet. It is, of course, exquisitely close ...

Spokesman said he wouldnt give any content, wouldnt give any details on the content of what mueller will say and only that mueller will in fact stick to what was in his report. i also asked the frame of mind of robert mueller heading into these hearings and his spokesman wouldnt comment on that either only saying that given muellers long career and reputation for being prepared, he will be ready for wednesday. >> appreciate it. with us legal analyst jeffrey toobin. anne is the former attorney ge...

To be fired, i agreed to plea. knowing he was going to be fired. because i was so convinced he had taken it so far, they would never back off that. >> so you dont think mueller would have gone after the tapes? >> given muellers performance and the way he let trump not appear under oath, not formally interview him, not in front of a grand jury, thats a sign to me he wasnt being very aggressive, whereas cox was very aggressive. and he was appointed under the same general authority that mueller was...

Archibald cox was going to go after the tapes to decide what i was going to do with my own situation. i had been immunized by senate, rather massive immunity, i also had informal immunity from the prosecutors. my lawyers said, john, you cant be prosecuted at this stage unless you want to be or unless you plead. i said, charlie, if i go after the tapes, its going to change everything. so three days before cox, while i was told about this, was going to be fired, i agreed to plea. knowing he was go...

What was in his report. i also asked the frame of mind of robert mueller heading into these hearings and his spokesman wouldnt comment on that either only saying that given muellers long career and reputation for being prepared, he will be ready for wednesday. >> appreciate it. with us legal analyst jeffrey toobin. anne is the former attorney general of the state of new jersey. jeff, do you agree with the department of justice that mueller has to stick to essentially everything addressed in the ...

Wait until after a report was filed to do that. so -- i think -- once that report is filed, you know -- there wont be any more indictments from muellers shot. as opposed to southern district of new york. >> thats a different story? >> thats a different story. keep in mind, there are a lot of people who have been indicted and people have pled guilty. but given muellers original charge, there is no american citizen living here, nobody associated with the trump campaign, thats been indicted for cri...

One question what did the nfl know and when? with trump questions are endless. look at the dnc hack, russian contacts. all the evidence of obstruction and public plus whatever he has in private. mueller was also able to interview direct subjects there as i mentioned in rice. here with trump mueller relied on written questions. if he finishes wutt demanding an interview that may show not that he couldnt get one when you lock at how much evidence he gathers. but for whatever reason he deemed he di...

Story was an incredible thing to so. i have been looking at this, michael. i am sure you are from the perspective of a litigator, former prosecutor, im trying to be a little analytical. heres what i come out. you see these dlem las, two different parties telling you two different stories not fully reconcilable. what do we know for sure? what is undisputed. michael cohen lied to congress about the moscow project. nobody disputes that. its not disputeed that michael cohen did not strike on his own...

Not about under underlying collusion with russia. so in a sense, trump is correct, but at the same time this may be part of a larger group of defendants that we my see in the future demonstrating that there was, in fact, collusion. >> and danny, does any of this suggest that papadopoulos has given mueller any critical information? >> it is interesting because papadopoulos -- the government said he did not cooperate to the level of what we call substantial assistance. that is a very magical phras...

Of course, president said it has nothing to do with his campaign. robert mueller, his brief, he was told to investigate anything having to do with the trump campaign in russia. >> there were four federal judges who have confirmed the legitimacy of robert muellers appointment and his powers that he has. rudy giuliani had given mueller an unofficial timeline. he said mueller needed to file his report, come to his conclusions by labor day, tomorrow, in order to not interfere with d.o.j. policy. doe...
