Stand trial in the united states. its an entirely different ball game if there are americans named or unnamed should he decide to do an indictment. there could be strategic reasons why he wouldnt necessarily name an american who was part of hacking and leaking campaign. but either way -- >> it could give away too much of the case perhaps? >> it could give away, he could want to hold back on that to try to pressure somebody to try to cooperate with the investigation. there are a number of differe...

Has contravened that. what were reporting today is the justice department is now going back and taking another look at a criminal investigation that apparently went on into this whole question of how this deal was approved and then some contributions to the clinton foundation. its not unheard of for the justice department to take another look at a case, not necessarily improper. after all, eric holder when he was the attorney general took another look at cia interrogations after bush administrat...

>> theres a debate, its a continuous and ongoing debate been the military about how much do retired officers or ncos get involved in politics. its one thing to support a candidate or speak highly or do programs like some people have done. im tempted to be apolitical on this program, but sometimes you get sucked in one way or the other because of action of political candidates. in this case michael flynn went over the top. that was the first indicator that something was desperately wrong with thi...

Were watching a lot of things across the country when people are accused of something, whether its matt lauer or anybody else, and theres generally come getting to the bottom of it. when you fire a national security adviser four weeks into your presidency, thats not a very good optic. but i think he did. and van put his finger on the problem. its a zombie prosecutor who is, if he is going beyond what is normal, which i believe he is, and i said from the beginning, this should not be about what i...

This is -- this guy mike flynn, surprisingly to many people who knew it, maybe not, but he lied to mike pence, he lied about that, and he was fired for his job, and he lied to the fbi, which even the most basic sort of bureaucrat knows you cant lie to the fbi. so president trump fired the guy within 25 days, realizing he couldnt do the job. its very unfortunate -- >> wait, let me just stop you there. he was informed flynn lied, and you just said 25 days later -- >> no, no, no, im sorry i misspok...

Anyone who has watched jeff sessions testify has heard him say that a hundred times. also in this information -- >> so that tells you that mueller is willing to bring charges based on an "i dont know" based to an outright lie? >> exactly. and also whats interesting to me is that in this information, they specifically called flynn a surrogate. so anyone who said they were unaware of surrogates interfacing with russia now in muellers view would not be telling the truth, because this guy, flynn, wa...

Michael flynns guilty plea in the russia probe and the resulting fallout. general, i want to know what you make of his guilty plea. >> two things. the emotions go back and forth for embarrassed for the army because this is a guy at the senior ranks. theres only about 20 or so three-star generals, the same rank i held in the army, and flynn is one of them. hes given special trust and confidence by the government and the soldiers he leads. so the first part is being embarrassed by what happened to...

Awareness of it. but at this point there have been so many drip, drip, drip, whether he is in the right or not it creates the impression he has something to hide, he see not telling the truth, and thats problematic. >> what ive been saying to people, and im not an attorney or an experienced prosecutor, joyce, but what i noticed about this guy mueller is he is very proper, very nine to five kind of guy. he does everything by the books. his hair is combed perfectly. he carries the perfect attache ...

Appointment of a special counsel. >> is that analysis going on right now? >> it is in the manual of the department of justice about whats required. roof only had to go. the first one was the waco, texas, janet reno, senator danforth who took over that investigation. and mr. mueller. each of those are special situations and we would use the proper standards, and thats something i can tell you. >> jesse: do you think the doj should be investigating the clinton foundation? steve work absolutely. th...

>> dana: so it is political retaliation? >> juan: am i nikita khrushchev or donald trump? why doesnt the justice department go after those evil clintons? who said that, i think it was donald trump. >> kimberly: muhammad ali. >> juan: did that sound like muhammad ali to you? i was trying. hes pressuring jeff sessions. why did he recuse himself? you caused me so much trouble with this guy mueller. why doesnt he consider leaving -- all of a sudden, sessions is saying the assistant attorney general,...
