Prize winning reporter for "the new york times," we appreciate it. barbara mcquaid and danny cevallos join me now. barbara, as a former prosecutor, from what you read in that piece by michael and maggie haberman in "the new york times," how do you react to what rudy giuliani is demanding? >> i agree with michaels assessment that it seems that rudy giuliani is continuing to stall. hes constantly moving the goalposts. i think its clear hes trying to stall. at some point robert mueller has to make ...

Thats what their texts say. thats the context. it isnt some objective fbi investigation. and remember one last point, they keep saying we are trying to protect the campaign. that isnt how you do that. you have a beginners campaign full of beginners, and you dont even talk to them about uprooting whatever is the problem. you just go plant your own person in that campaign? that is not trying to protect the campaign. thats out to get the campaign. >> this is a constant moving of the goalposts to ma...

>> hes trying to move the goalposts, hes trying to discredit the investigation, the mueller probe, the southern district of new york. i think its important to remember that the most innocent explanation for this cohen meeting with this russian oligarch is that it was just run of the mill influence peddling. thats the innocent explanation, something which trump has vilified in the past, and it leaves open the fact that there are much more sinister and possibly more plausible explanations for what...

Governments that were looking to interact with the trump campaign, the only thing i can say is this is not normal. ive covered nine presidential campaigns going back to 1984. there really isnt a precedent i think for a campaign that was simultaneously involved with so many actors of kind of shadowy or spurious associations that were simultaneously interacting with the campaign. i mean, there really has been nothing like it. we may not fully understand it until the mueller report. we may not full...

That intersep thought they could manipulate him through business dealings and we understand from the story today that an adviser to them was at the meeting in the sayshells and with a russian connected to the kremlin before the inauguration. what was that about? people have been interested in knowing. people there deny there was anything to it. eric prince said it was a friendly chat over a drink. but it is feeding into the suspicion about any s-- subterranean link and the question of whether ge...

House goalposts are. do you see that as a problem? >> absolutely it is. tom cotton as a person to watch in the senate and he will toe the line in some of these things are the whole idea "the los angeles times" is reporting that the white house is interested in moving illegal immigration limits are proposing a 5000 a year up to 1 million a year. such an arbitrary number lets not forget the hero democrats back in the 90s, she chaired a commission at the behest of president bill clinton and they ca...
