Having done someone a solid already. thats the power. >> now that david pecker is reported to not only be cooperating with prosecutors but to have been granted immunity in conjunction with doing so, and the type of leverage youre describing here relates to the serving president of the united states, it raises all sorts of very big questions that are more than about the enquirers competitive advantage in the marketplace. one of the things im wondering, whether there is a financial element, a busi...

Reported to not only be cooperating with prosecutors but to have been granted immunity in conjunction with doing so, it -- and the type of leverage youre describing here relates to the serving president of the united states, it raises all sorts of very big questions that are more than about the "inquirer"s competitive advantage in the marketplace. one of the things im wondering here, jeff, is whether theres a financial element here, a business leapt here? i mean, i find it hard to tell whether o...

Sounds like they worked hard to try to convince this lone juror to vote guilty on the remaining counts, and she refused. so thats how they ended up with this hung jury but he wanted the world to know it was 11-1 and only one holdout. >> and if youre robert mueller, dont you say, you know what? maybe im going to go ahead and take another swing at those ten counts, and if not -- if for only the reason to make manafort think hes going to have to go through the motions and start preparing for anothe...

All ways that people can get at donald trumps tax returns. right? somebody wants to get at those tax return and a lawsuit of the foundation is a way on to get to that. >> i totally agree. there is a sense that the dam is breaking and people are rushing in from all sides. yes, he will have to make a deal with the state of new york if he is subject to criminal penalties under state laws that are constructed not based on his testimony. everybody who is around trump now and has been over the last te...

A weakness in one juror nap outou. that outlier you can toss out and know your case is very strong. i dont think mueller will sent the case again. the judge is permitted to sentence paul manafort for all the conduct in this case, not just those counts of conviction under whats known at relevant conduct under the cendasentenci guidelines if the judge find by preponderance of the evidence these additional crimes were committed. i think he already has all the leverage he needs in this case and the ...

To congress. i think that has been under mated throughout the coverage -- under estimated throughout the coverage of this. two to three weeks later what are you going to do about it? justice department investigations are different. they have a huge amount of leverage. you dont choose whether to cooperate. they indict you or they dont. they offer you a plea bargain or they dont. they have all of the information. it is the entire justice department. it is rod rosenstein managing a complex investig...

If they want to ascend to the majority than they should give the red state democrats an opportunity to get a little leverage because this judge is going to be confirmed either way. >> lawrence: and you have the republicans as well, you still have collins who said she wont make a decision until probably september 4th. then you have murkowski as well. >> harris: senator durbin has wrapped up his meeting with judge kavanaugh, i was told that in my ear. im wondering what kind of pressure there is no...
