Reading Mueller News Today

It was much lengthier, which i think caused some of us to speculate that all of these delays related to some juror issue, but the jurors are all back. Theres been no further discussion of the reason for the delay. Testimony is ongoing. The other intriguing thing that happened today was about sealed testimony about some rick gates testimony that could have to do with an investigation that is still ongoing. When we consider what investigations are still ongoing that rick gates might have to do wit...

Youre going to say an impeachment inquiry ought to be started. i mean, if you want to boil down the case for televised public hearings with robert mueller even if he stays totally within the four corners of his report, if you want to boil it down to one quote and one antidote, let me offer you this. after justin amash held a town hall in his district two nights ago to talk about his call for impeachment hearings and why he came to that conclusion after reading muellers report, after he explained...

I mean today today literally as i speak right now members of the house democrats in congress are conducting a marathon live reading of muellers report. at least the portion of it theyve been allowed to see, right? the house democrats started with this at noon. theyve been going all day long reading muellers report out loud. theyre expected to go through the night and maybe finish some time tomorrow morning. thats actually a live shot right now. i will say i watched this on and off throughout the...

Before the flynn case is over, even before flynn is sentenced. again, this deadline for judge sullivan for the unredacted version of the mueller report as it pertains to the flynn stuff, the deadline for that to be released to the public is a couple of weeks before theres even the next status report on mike flynn, let alone before he gets another sentencing date. so even before the flynn case is wrapped, hes saying release everything in that mueller report, unredact everything in that mueller re...

Cooperating witnesses sentenced until all of the other targets are wrapped up, until they themselves are prosecuted, convicted, and sentenced. it is unusual and it does say to me that while there certainly are still pieces out there, for example, the whole roger stone side of things that has yet to be wrapped up, at least publicly as far as we know, that he is starting to come to conclusions and maybe looking to write a report some time next year probably. >> jennifer rodgers, thank you for bein...

Through more cooperation, is that right? >> thats right, poppy. just because hes been sentenced, its not necessarily the end of the road. theres a a procedure called a rule 35 motion that prosecutors can make for post-sentencing cooperation. it has to be extraordinary, and again, what he hasnt done yet, he has to completely come clean about all of his and other peoples criminal conduct to get such a motion. he could do it if he decides to do so in the southern district and prosecutors file that ...

Rodgers is here. scott jennings is here from "the new york times," cnn political analyst julia hirshfield davis. good morning to you all. before we get to the politics of it, let me get to you, jennifer, and the legal issues. michael cohen said the president isnt truthful, he lied about russia. he directed him to make these payments in order to help him win the presidency, to help his campaign. he said he would keep cooperating if wanted and he said, quote, there is a substantial amount of infor...

Woodruff and glen kirschner, who spent his more than 30-year career working in d.c. betsy, first to you. give us the broader picture of what we can now conclude that mueller is looking into. >> we know mueller is deeply interested in some of the more fringe figures sort of on the periphery of the trump campaign. this indicates hes casting a wide net. theres two different ways of reading muellers investigation of roger stone. one possible interpretation of all the evidence that weve seen thus far...
