Frank, after the fbi believed they had reason obviously to target those people, correct? >> yeah, so, lets look quickly at the three people that allegedly were targeted by this source. one, weve got george papadopoulos who was openly telling people, including australian ambassador to london. and sam clovis who was encouraged papadopoulos to have secret meeting. and carter page, and hes the target of a foreign intelligence electronic wiretap because probable cause has been established a reasonabl...

Investigation. and the fact that these two had met with the informant, sam clovis had met with him. and it does seem whether the trump campaign was willing to collude with russian officials. >> im curious, ozzy, why you think the timing of this information coming from the fbi -- lets face it, the president puts out a tweet that according to the information put out by the fbi is erroneous and false. >> it just hilt the one-year mark. its not slowing down. hes had to change his legal team. hes had...

Of the mueller investigation. >> in the trade, as i understand it, there is a huge gulf of difference between someone who is an informant and someone who is a mole. we have guests standing by to help us flesh that out. how does this appear to differ from this charge were hearing from giuliani, perhaps led or abetted by the president, that this was a spy effort greater in national significance than watergate? >> at this point mayor giuliani and president trump, with their assertions, they are fun...

Thank you very much, chris jansing. lets go now into russias investigation and the new role that the fbi source played in its early stages. "the new york times" and "washington post" reported late last night that the fbi used an informant to investigate russian ties to the trump campaign. but not a spy as the president and his allies have claimed. both have claimed to name the fbi sources to protect their identity. theyre only saying the informant is an american professor who teaches in britai...

And exits to schools are the safest way to go about -- >> im thinking about a fire alarm. >> exactly. >> a fire alarm is what started this whole thing yesterday. anyway, im sorry to interrupt you. >> no, but youre making my point. you need multiple exits to make sure the children can get out in case of an emergency. one or two exits i dont think is the answer. being creative and thinking outside the box. yes, we absolutely need to do that. >> all right, lets turn to the russia investigation. i w...

The professor took the opportunity to strike up a conversation with carter page, whom trump had named a few months earlier as a foreign policy adviser. the professor was more than an academic interested in american politics. he was a longtime u.s. intelligence source. in late summer, the professor met with trump campaign co-chairman sam clovis for coffee in northern virginia, offering to provide foreign policy expertise to the trump effort. in september, he reached out to george papadopoulos, an...

Investigation. eric prince. as you know, hes the brother of betsy devos. he was at the heart of the meeting in the seychelles, which is of interest because its related to the united arab emirates. sam clovis, and early adviser to the campaign and also mark corallo. hes a hostile witness to the president. >> shepard: he might, too. >> yeah. that i have a conflict with interesting clients. so as you rightly point out, it comes down to the interview. right? whether the president will agree to one. ...

Dreamer. i didnt talk to him, because he was of no relevance. >> just because someone works -- >> i was going to say, i think youre not taking this in the broader context. if you look at the papadopoulos statement of defense, what it shows is that papadopoulos was trying to minimize his relationship to the campaign when he spoke to mueller about his contacts with the russian professor with the woman that he brought with him and others ongoing. also, what was minimized was papadopoulos dealings w...

And terrific lawyers, and i think they could help drive a media strategy for the president. my biggest problem is that they have been reported in the paper as representing mark corallo and sam clovis, i dont understand -- irrespective of whether they sign a waiver. especially corallo who quit the campaign who had the job in the white house because he thought they were engaged in obstructionist behavior. how do you represent someone whos said the white house has engaged in obstruction behavior. o...

I think that for those reasons, its a bad fit, and you dont really have to go any farther than that. you did say theres no conflict now, but theres no telling where things will go, particularly as it relates to each individual, sam clovis, corallo, or president trump. putting yourself as a lawyer in that position would be very unwise. again, i dont think it serves any of those clients well for a lawyer to put themselves in that position, much like i said last night. >> all you had to do was say,...
