clearly there were intercepts they were listening in on with kiss kislyak. did he tell the white house counsel? did he tell the president about it? we don t know the answer to that question. we do know the president at this point is saying, this guy, i don t know. he was complaining that flynn hadn t told him about a phone call from a foreign leader, right? but we don t know what else was in the president s mind at that point about flynn and why in the end he kept, you know, he asked comey to kind of stop the case. that s the kebs that s really hard to make for me. you mentioned reince priebus. i want to skip that. bob, i want to get to this piece and we ll get to the president s reaction in a second. there s this bit about russia and the prostitute.
and surprise people with how much they can get in a small suv. that means more standard features and more upgrades for a lot less than expected. the all-new ecosport. it s the big upgrade in a small package. from ford, america s best-selling brand. see what you can get for under 20 grand with the all-new ecosport. gas, bloating, constipation and diarrhea see what you can get for under 20 grand can start in the colon and may be signs of an imbalance of good bacteria. only phillips colon health has this unique combination of probiotics. it helps replenish good bacteria. get four-in-one symptom defense. accused of obstructing justice to theat the fbinuclear war, and of violating the constitution by taking money from foreign governments and threatening to shut down news organizations that report the truth. if that isn t a case for impeaching and removing a dangerous president, then what has our government become? i m tom steyer, and like you,
you re called in to court. you take the fifth amendment in a civil case for money damages, and that could be held against you, unlike in a criminal case where it cannot be held against you. only sit for a deposition, be part of any discovery in this civil case when so much is on the line now in the criminal investigation. he s doing a very smart thing, he s dropping the defamation case. it is a good point. i was about to say it shows he s worried and smart. with respect to this. in this case, this is the smart defense how you would handle it now. okay. jay goldberg, the president s divorce lawyer, i think twice, right, and also handled some real estate deals, the president apparently had a phone conversation with him last week, which goldberg was only too willing to share to gloria borger and the wall street journal where he told the president, you have to worry about michael cohen. if you think this guy is going to take a bullet for you, you are wrong, he will flip. i th

getting very nervous and michael avenatti sees an opening to prod the president to say more and it s something that can only get him into trouble, both personally and legally speaking. what is this sketch? in terms of where does it fit in to the grander scheme of what s going on? i personally thought the most compelling sort of comparison was with tom brady, perhaps it s her ex-husband, perhaps it s just some guy. let s assume it might even have really happened, but maybe was said jokingly. there are a lot of different questions about this, whether or not the person exists is of no particular importance. it s not that important to the case or that important to the claims that stormy daniels has made and certainly not important enough for the presbyterian to weigh in on it. it becomes mystifying that he would allow himself to be lured into this over something that as he suggests, frankly, i believe the president on this. there s a very good chance this
