Talking about. well show you this. northern ireland is part of the united kingdom. you can see it there. it could go along with the united kingdom. the republic is staying within the eu. there is no solid border between northern ireland and the republic of ireland. in some cases it is impossible to discern. there is a whole lot of trade and a lot of people sips the troubles ended in northern ireland who kplut between the two places. they live in one, buy stuff in one, take it to the other. it wo...

In on the watergate hearings, voted for impeachment and helped draft the rules, the guidelines for what was then a special prosecutor. former deputy assistant attorney general harry litman, also joins us, and nick akerman is staying with us. nick was a former watergate prosecutor and is an msnbc legal analyst. thanks to all three of you, liz, lets start with you. you have written a book called "the case for impeachment," i believe its called. this is as close as its gotten. its not new informati...

Political synergy on a government level. it sure looks like michael cohen was a target of recruitment here by the russians, cohen also talked about the circumstances about why i lied to congress. the implication was it wasnt just michael cohens decision to tell these lies and there is more to come. >> other people may have been involved in these things. neal, i am curious what you think about this odd use of the word synergy, those of us in normal life think of that as a meaningless word that is...

Were in this situation where the founding fathers left that up to congress to provide the accountability piece for a sitting president. so the real responsibility here should lie on the hill, not with career prosecutors. >> so there is this new report in the "new york times," nelson, and it says that prosecutors examined the statute of limitations on the finance violation. so my question is, why would new york prosecutors try to determine whether they can indict the president after leaving offic...

Actually showing here, and what were going to probably see come down the road in a report. >> and lynn, listen to what the president said just moments ago, compared to his words in july, of 2016. >> there was no collusion whatsoever. there never has been. the last thing i want is help from russia on a campaign. >> russia, if you are listening, i hope you are able to find the 30,000 e-mails that are missing. >> so, lynn, no one can forget that moment. >> well, one person can, apparently, presiden...

So i think, you know, its important to think about michael cohen in the ordinary presidency, the fact that a presidents top lawyer is pleading guilty to all sorts of crimes would be headline stories for weeks. but in the trump presidency, there is always more at stake and today is really puts that pedal to the metal because here you have a circumstance in which the real story tonight is not -- is not michael cohen, who has done all these bad things, but trumps direct implication in all this. you...

Length with neal and michael in the last segment about basically a direct implication that the president was conspireing with his lawyer to commit a campaign finance felony. but with the manafort filings specifically, i find it odd that people can read anything about manafort and not see that there is a very troubling russia connection. he is in contact with a russian gru military asset or officer. we know the gru was behind the dnc hack and gru officers have been indicted. and hes also trying t...

"because theres no bigger c-- bigger issue than consent of sh russia." whats the implication considering there was no followup because the document says that he already had another in somewhere else? >> i think its very legally significant as it is significant you getting into the core of the document itself. we cannot be a country for sale. why is this significant at all? because we have to base policies not upon business deals and business decisions and wealth and money building, we have to ba...

President. not just the mueller findings but the cohen sentencing memo provided something we have not seen in this long ordeal, which was direct implication of the president in a crime. of course the mueller investigation goes to this individual kilimnick that manafort was talking to, a russian that seems to have connections to the intelligence community in russia. yet another undisclosed, lied about link to the russians. thats a big deal. >> what do you think democrats will do come january 3rd?...

Through your attorney to othert been protected by common interest privilege. instead, hes going out of his way to talk to people in the trump administration about what? like what are they talking about? are they talking about a pardon? are they talking about secrets that they didnt want the attorneys to know? you know, that is the obvious implication to me. so theres a lot of interesting questions raised here as to what hes talking about and why. >> gentlemen, thank you. have a good weekend. i a...
