Wait a lot more in what is filed with paul manaforts lies. that will tell us a lot. at least according tow my reporting, congressional investigators asked questions of muellers office about whether they can call certain witnesses related to the obstruction phase and whether they are getting a green light saying they talk to everybody we want to talk to relating to obstruction. the fact that these sentencing memorandums are being filed at all is usually you dont see this. if somebody is cooperati...

At least according to my reporting, congressional investigators asked questions of muellers office about whether they can call certain witnesses related to the obstruction phase and whether they are getting a relative green light saying weve basically talked to everybody we want to talk to relating to obstruction. the fact that these sentencing memorandums are being filed at all is usually you dont see this. if somebody is cooperating as a government witness, usually they dont get -- the sentenc...

Anything. are we getting to the end of the collusion piece of this, the obstruction piece or the whole s shebang? >> were certainly likely to be getting toward the end if not the end of the obstruction phase of the investigation. and i think probably even on the collusion one as well. look, i think were going to learn more this week than weve learned in the last year and a half about what mueller has been told. >> love it. >> these are the three most high-profile, crucial cooperating -- >> will ...

Getting substantial cooperation in an ongoing matter. there was -- you know, sentencing as im sure pate knows, can be put off indefinitely. some people go years while theyre cooperating without getting sentenced. so the fact that mueller is going to be making public filings on all of these three major high-profile defendants is an indication that whatever hes learned from them, hes learned and hes ready to move on. that plus some other, you know, signals, smoke signals were getting that, i quote...

Investigation, have told muellers prosecutors. and i think thats the danger point for them. thats why they dont want the president to expose himself to oral questioning and thats why theyre going to be extremely careful in answering any questions with the possibility out there that anything the president says could be contradicted by these other cooperating witnesses that mueller has. but you know, ive got to say, taking a step back, theres so much here that is really hard to figure out. i mean,...

Rejected by his attorneys who believed that could set down a series of perjury traps. after the special counsel last week offered to tighten the focus a bit, giuliani andte sekulow today tried to narrow it even further, trying to shy away from t questions about whether or not the president committedo obstruction, in part because -- they are making the case the president has a vast executive power to hire and fire officials like former fbi director james comey. giuliani made clear today another p...

On so long and as the president has said over and over, theres no evidence of collusion. but call me skeptical of this washington post report. i remember another washington post report, and you can google this from a few months ago saying mueller would do a report by june is what i recall on at least one phase of this, maybe the obstruction phase. and i guess they could say well, the president never sat down for an interview so he couldnt finish it. heres my point, that weve heard before that ph...

He lied under oath. so i think trump has an understanding of the difference and the importance of, you know, of restraining himself in that setting. >> if this does go to court and ultimately the supreme court, how long would it take? would it go into the 2018 campaigns? >> boy, youre talking about three levels of appeals. it would go to a district court, the dc circuit court of appeals, and then the united states supreme court. its hard for me to imagine that could get done in less than three o...

A lot of people, including coats and pompeo to get the message out that he was not under fbi investigation. how do you see this latest revelation? >> well i do think it is significant if for no other reason that it does get to the presidents mindset. remember, this all begins the obstruction phase of the investigation. it begins with the decision to fire comey. the president asked for his loyalty, he asked him to back off of flynn investigation, and then he fired him. the president then tells le...
