The other thing going on there, i mean, i dont know that we get anything important out of any committee in congress in terms of getting the bottom of this. i dont. i feel like its important that we ought to because theres so many things that they can look into they wouldnt be under the per view of prosecutors working for mueller for an investigation of what happened but with the -- with the intelligence committee, one of the things that feels like is happening right now is theyre rushing through...

Attempt to obstruct justice. and so if that wasnt already under the per view of special council muellers investigation, it definitely is something drawing more scrutiny now. >> so surprising to me that the white house lawyer, one of the presidents lawyers said, no, i wrote that. i composed that tweet for the president to decide whether he wanted to tweet. thats a new thing. my assumption is the president gets up at this time every morning and starts watching morning television and starts tweetin...

That is what would be wrong. >> in light of the charges, youre keeping your pledge, good for you, in light of the charges, some republicans have been dodging questions on capitol hill about how theyre reacting to all of this, others have had this to say. listen to this? >> it is big news. its big news but this is what you get from a special counsel. they have made an indictment. i have nothing to add because i havent read it. im not going to speculate on something i havent read. >> the special c...

Guy out there saying is what a lot of them are saying privately is why hes decided to retire. >> before he does, he could still have some influence here. "the atlantic" has a headline where he says, will corkers talk turn to action? this is not any republican senator, although they are important, this is the head of the foreign relations committee and he has it in his per view to do something on, for example, iran, which is going to be a big topic this week. what do you see as the path forward f...

Of this last six months ishe missed opportunity for the president to say this is a problem. the worst thing that could happen is if it drips out three weeks ago. we learned from the presidents own son that he had a meeting which he was excited to get information. the president said this could be a real problem, everything comes out in the next week. we would probably be past this one way or another. but they have been dishonest. when the president points to an area he is nervous about, you have ...
