Testimony. my concern is that a lot of that the dots were not connected. and a lot of the examination was very poor. now, the congressman whos on our panel and two other congress members, miss ocasio cortez and katie hill from california, asked very pointed questions that got and elicited important new information. but way too many of the questions were preening, they were time wasted on telling us what we already know. and i hope that the committees in the future do a better job of examining th...

And anything else you think we should be focusing on. >> well, that check is absolutely a smoking gun, and im glad that emily jane has this terrific story. it shows what good reporting is going on here by journalists. by my count michael cohen identified potentially 14 different crimes in his testimony. my concern is that a lot of that the dots were not connected. and a lot of the examination was very poor. now, the congressman whos on our panel and two other congress members, miss ocasio cortez...
