Page 17 - Mueller Case News Today

Its so ironic, don, that donald trump said during the campaign that hillary clinton would be the most scandal-ridden president in the history of this country and now we have donald trump, his campaign advisor, his long time personal lawyer, his fixer, both -- one pled guilty and one convicted of felonies. unprecedented. >> uh-huh, and then this mueller case -- lets see, one sentence, five guilty pleas. one person found guilty, 35 defendants, 191 criminal charges. there it is up on the screen. ma...

Hes found guilty of bank fraud and tax evasion. and now, you know, michael cohen, the long time fixer and personal lawyer for the president pleading guilty to eight counts, two of which directly involve the president of the united states. clearly an unpress dented day for the government, for the president. shocking revelation by lanny davis that this isnt over, when i looked at that interview, what it said to me is, we have a long way to go, and more shoes are going to drop, whether mueller deci...

Admitted that fact. >> the first part of that is, you say what? >> thats a bombshell. if what lanny davis just stated is true, theres a $130,000 wire transfer directly into that bank account that was used to pay my client. and that is a direct reimbursement from donald trump or a company controlled by limb, which is what lanny davis just said, it is a stunning piece of evidence and stunning admission. it runs counter to what rudy giuliani said and it also runs counter to david schwartz. >> he de...

The american people didnt want to have him impeached on that. thats what happens when you set something up as a russian collusion case and then watch things like this happen. you watch if, democrats win congress, they go to impeach the president. thats what theyre going to run on. >> im running out of time. i just want to -- i dont have a lot of time. do you want to respond to that? >> look, the situation right now with donald trump is the only easy day was yesterday. more evidence will come out...

And for things they did both before and during his administration and his campaign. >> so listen -- >> go ahead. >> im old enough to remember being on here with rick, where rick specifically made the point to me, that the cohen investigation had nothing to do with the mueller investigation, and so i think thats an interesting point. because in the manafort case, theyre not looking at russia collusion of the trump campaign, theyre looking at tax fraud and payments that he had, and he hid, and in ...

The history of this country. and now we have donald trump, his campaign adviser, his long term personal adviser, his personal lawyer, his fixer, both pled guilty and one convicted of felonies. unprecedented. >> and then this mueller case. lets see, one sentence five guilty pleas. one person found guilty, 35 defendants, 191 criminal charges, there it is up on the screen. what do you think? >> i will tell you, don, my mouth dropped when i saw that michael cohen went into federal court and under oa...

Hes destroyed liz legacy, hes done a disservice to himself and his client. and hes committed legal malpractice in the way theyve handled this. donald trump should have brought michael cohen into the tent a long time ago. >> i asked lanny that question, why did he keep him and giuliani -- >> they dont understand the sense of loyalty unless youre last name is putin. then they understand loyalty. >> your client tweeted this, how you like me now? #teamstormy. >> how big of a day is this for your cas...

Rick was saying is that the president calls this whole thing a witch hunt, what hes referring to is the mueller investigation trying to create a conspiracy case around the presidents campaign, and hes repeatedly said there was no such thing, and now were saying, oh, my gosh, two people around him have gotten into trouble. neither one of them has anything to do with what that was originally about. and what democrats talk about every time they can, about mueller, which is russian collusion, neithe...

Journal." we had the reporter on last hour who did it, and this is a quote from trump himself. i call it the rigged witch hunt. it is a sham, and these people let it. so i think its something that had to be done, these people, meaning the folks whose security clearances are under review, the likes of john brennan and james clapper, lisa page, peter strzok, et cetera. and he makes this connection here with security clearance to the mueller investigation in saying, something had to be done. someth...

Clearances, because brennan, of course, was obamas cia chief, and we was one of the guys who came to trump before inauguration. and he was essentially saying, excuse me, we have evidence of russia getting involved. >> thats exactly right. i actually think this admission in the "wall street journal" is worse than the previous administration by trump with lester holt. >> why? >> because the president literally says, theres a witch hunt, the mueller case, im getting rid of john brennan, because, yo...
