When i saw this story my first response was they better have more stuff than what we see. theres a lot of stuff out there that says the presidents behavior is erratic. theres a lot of situations where he has lied. thats not only relating to russia. thats relating to everything from stormy daniels to how many people showed up at the inauguration. theres a lot of situations where he did weird things in foreign policy. but taking the leap to say we should open an investigation on the sitting presid...

People talk, they say stuff all the time. the question in this report is, whats the noise, whats the white noise among various employees, various people in the fbi and what was the action? what actually occurred as opposed to what were people saying in -- what did comey do as opposed to what did some of the staffers say. >> protocol in a way that destroyed hillary clintons campaign ten days out and everybody knows it. >> the ig report calls james comey insubordinate, critical not just of the two...

Asking and already know the answers too. we dont have those answers, john. >> youre right about the special counsels team. appreciate the reporting. its just one of these -- you start reading these things and you think this cant be real. but the president consistently says no russian collusion, no public evidence of collusion involving the president. but how about russian cozy and just plain outright stupidity. if you have michael cohen, the presidents lawyer, taking money from a company that ha...

Probably not a great idea. >> exactly. you look at the shifting details into great detail there. and thats what what is causing probably the most concern from republicans that you hear about today. i spoke to a number of them today. and what theyre particularly frustrated with, never mind the merits of the meeting. thats one different topic. its just the fact that the white house cannot keep its stories straight. and it provides one distraction after another at a time when the party is trying to...

Sensitive information? who shares a computer anymore, whether with anybody or a spouse, let alone a spouse like anthony weiner. thats a real question of judgment i dont understand. >> this does come down to the judgment question that donald trump is clearly harping on here. heres one line you wrote in the piece. for all her proximity to the white hot center of american politics, abedin is every bit as unknown to the general public as her boss is world famous. how has she stayed under the radar f...

Compare that with president obama who didnt say a word, for example, before osama bin laden was taken out. but he carried a big stick. so i think there is a different strategy here. i think hillary clinton has got the right one. >> let me ask you this, because the mood of this country does, to me, feel much like 2002, 2003, one of the things happen, people make decisions that they later come to regret. one is hillary clintons iraq war. she has to her great credit said that that was a wrong decis...

Theyre going to remember the evidence that came out of it. and the evidence, egoz, one, to her character, and two to her judgment. those are some of her biggest vulnerabilities in the race going forward. that and the question of whether or not the fbi makes a move on any of this going forward as well. >> on the e-mails. well get to that. anything else, kim, that you learned at the hearing that you thought was significant? >> well, again, it goes to the judgment question. there was a lot of discu...

>> well, over the last several days, during the course of this week, we saw it coming together. but it wasnt done until it was done. an it wasnt until a little before 10:30 in the morning yesterday that we had confirmation that he was safely in u.s. custody. >> when the u.s. special forces went in to get him. >> yes. >> point-blank, did the u.s. negotiate with terrorists for his release? >> candy, what we did, we ensured, as always, the united states doesnt leave a man or woman on the battlefiel...

>> yes. >> point-blank, did the u.s. negotiate with terrorists in his release? >> candy, what we did, we ensured as always the united states doesnt leave a man or woman on the battlefield. its very important for folks to understand, if we got into a situation where we said because of who has captured an american soldier on the battlefield, we will leave that person behind, we would be in a whole new era for the safety of our personnel and for the nature of our commitment to our men and women in ...

Jon: there has been a relationship between minority leader in the minority member on that committee. thats me ask you a judgment question, and opinion question really, was that outburst from him theatrics or is he legitimately angry? was it aptly unheard of for him to adjourned the hearing in a way that he did? >> it was a little bit of both. he got the clip on fox news, it will be played around. on other networks. i think he meant to express a point, he was going to do it in dramatic fashion to...
