My good friend who represents a tough district in illinois, sherry bustos, we have a running joke going in the mornings, i represent fairfield county, connecticut, shes in the heartland, shes in a district that we need to figure out how to win again. every monday morning when i see sherry, she says "my constituents still arent asking me about russia." the point there is if the democratic party doesnt get focused -- and im not sure were doing this well -- if were not focused on kitchen, table iss...

>> of course, the president suggesting that this was a witch hunt, that -- you know, hes already suggested and it was probably a tweet that did more damage to him than any other. hes already suggested that barack obama had tapped his phone in trump tower. that was a complete lie and it started a chain of events -- started a chain of self-inflicted wounds against the president by himself that has led us to where we are right now with bob mueller, but in this case, were talking of course about car...

And in that time period as he kept saying yesterday, even though hes not in the campaign, he has an extraordinary amount of communication with two key people -- roger stone and steve bannon. and hi kept talking yesterday over and over about how im not going to be part of a case against roger stone. he kept saying it over and over again. i think thats what worried him. i think when he got that subpoena, he looked into his e-mail and said, boy, man, if i turn this over my friend roger stone, my me...

Lewandowski? are you giving me a break? its ridiculous. when i get a subpoena like t roger is right, its a tch-hunt. mr. trump is right, the presidents right, its a witch-hunt. ive spent money on an attorney, ive cooperated with them and when i got something like this and then they wanted know go to the grand jury next friday and i believe theyre trying to start a case against roger. >> why do you think after you did the other but is view they want to make you go in the grand jury room? >> becau...

This case, not the antics but the heart of it, what do you see? >> you know, we all see the tip of the iceberg. we know that mueller knows a lot that we dont know. i hesitate to put any faith in things that nunberg has said about his interaction with special counsel but it doesnt seem unlikely -- nunberg notwithstanding -- that mueller would be looking at roger stone and his alleged contact with wikileaks, with julian assange, because that really is part of his core charge between whether there ...

Book, knowing who met with whom. the little things that help a prosecutor put a case together. i thought his professions of loyalty to roger stone were fascinating because clearly he sees roger stone as connection with people pushing out the anti hillary -- for the russians its so clear that you may think roger stone may be more at the center of this than seen before. he knows the little things that prosecutors turn into big things. >> he also knows what donald trump was doing in 2012, 2013, 201...

Katie. i was preparing it, should i spend 50 hours going over all my e-mails with roger and with steve bannon and then they wanted e-mails that i had with hope hicks, with lewandowski, are you giving me a break? its ridiculous. when i get a subpoena like this, roger is right. i mean, mr. trump is ght. its a witch hunt. >> ive spent money on an attorney. i cooperated with them and then i got something like this and they wanted me to go to the grand jury next friday and i believe theyre trying to ...

Bills. >> it would be funny if they wanted to arrest me because i dont want to spend 80 hours going over e-mails i had with steve bannon and roger stone. >> john heilemann, i want to explain to people that are -- well, let me bring in joyce here. joyce, just because -- i brought this up yesterday and i just -- i knew people would say oh, its a witch-hunt that bob mueller is asking for this information, all of these e-mails. this is the first thing any lawyer does in a civil case, in a criminal c...

Last week that got swept up in everything else that happened was admiral mike rogers testimony before the arms services committee last week. the head of the u.s. cyber command saying were not doing enough, russia continues to attack our syste unabated, i havent be given the authority om the white house to do the things i believe need to get done. my question is if everyone knows this is a problem, everyone recognizes it continues to happen a couple of years after the presidential campaign and th...

The principals, several of which have already been arrested? can you explain how far from being a witch-hunt thats lawyering 101? and if they didnt do that they wouldnt be doing their job. >> this is on the opposite end of the prosecutor universe from being a witch-hunt. getting e-mails, text messages and other commune station the way every competent prosecutor or, as you point out, every lawyer in any kind of litigation begins to build their case. its the paper record, its contemporaneous when ...
