But i almost feel like i do. this part of the story now so much a part of how we think about how things blow up in american politics when they blow up really badly. i was 2 1/2 weeks old. this was april 19, 1973. >> the statement issued today by john dean, the white house counsel, caught everybody by surprise. specially white house. it was really not a statement. it was a warning to the people dean works for. anybody who knows me, anybody who knows the true facts about watergate, knows better th...

The note? because the last part of that question i think some are speculating that what does the single decision mean for the rest of the verdict? and so some are interpreting that as possibly meaning there is a consensus on some of the other counts but one remains undecided. >> so i was in there for this whole back and forth. and my takeaway, and i think that the judge agreed with this, since he was discussing the idea of a partial verdict, is the implication is obvious that theyve reached a ve...

Per campaign, but it also was not disclosed as a contribution. so those things are an issue. and interestingly, this is, you know, you havent asked this question, but following up on what was discussed in the previous part of your show. because the money was funneled through an llc, we dont even know what the source of that money was. whether it could have come from russia, for example. we dont know. and so there is an implication of about that, as well, because the llcs have been used previousl...

Counts, it sounds like from what youre saying. >> its possible, but i think unlikely. i think the implication of the note is that they have reached unanimity on some counts and the question, again, was, if we cannot come to a consensus on a single count, how should we fill out the verdict form for that count. so it doesnt necessarily mean there is only one count. but it does give at least the implication that they have reached union a.animity on some counts. >> one last question, dan, as a prose...

Of the conduct, including stuff that the jury didnt reach a verdict on, including stuff on which youre acquitted, can help fashion your final sentence. so what prosecutors need are a couple of counts of conviction. that makes him a convicted felon and all of his bad conduct can be taken into account. >> ken, you have some more information? go ahead. >> reporter: i apologize, this is being fed in real time. but its my understanding now that the judge has said he will poll the jurors to determine ...

The u.s. government could shut down all of the cable news networks and all of the newspapers in the country tomorrow and there would be new press outlets that would talk about that and claim that is wrong and give all of the people who did that new voices. so you dont necessarily stifle the speech in the future but everybody would admit that thats wrong. the government does not have the ability by the first amendment to stifle free speech. thats what this issue is. its not whether john brennan c...

Through the process. the house and the senate to spend money under our system. theyve done a pretty good job so far. i think theyve passed nine of their last 12 spending bills. so theyre making progress. they are ahead of their schedule from previous years i think the signs are good that we will get some spending bills passed before the end of the fiscal year. >>chris: the president announced friday he is canceling the big military parade in washington in november because of skyrocketing costs. ...

Payment even though the white house continually denying it. if we are weighing credibility here, whos got the upper hand? >> good question. i think you can make an argument for either one. of course, there are just like what we are seeing in the manaforts trial. prosecutors dont go based on someones words. it is never a he says she says implication. here we may have a situation where 130,0$130,000 payment goea campaign violation and a banking fraud violation on cohens if he applied for that. if ...

Anybody who talks to federal investigators, even if they are not under oath, they have to tell the truth or it can be a crime. and so there is that issue. assuming he told the trunth, he doesnt have that to worry about and assuming he wasnt involved in any other criminal activity, doesnt have that to worry about ir either. the big implication, i think is the fact he was able to provide all of this information and what it means going forward in terms of waiver of the executive privilege and even ...

Really important issue. i can not stress this enough to everybody that is conservative and everybody that supports trump especially those that support trump. i think what they are starting to understand is they are trying to assess how trump won and really he ran an aggressive social media campaign and they see that people were able to impact they lost control because so many voices popped up and they no longer had to rely on just cnn, msnbc or fox. there were all of these social media stars tha...
