Skin. it gets under everybody. i mean, inevitably. it would get under ours. >> of the 49 questions, five about michael flynn. 11 about comey. 9 about sessions. 14 are about coordination with russia. thats for a total of 49 questions. does that breakdown tell you anything about where robert muler is going? >> i dont think so. i think its -- you could argue the volume might give you more interest in it, but its possible that one big question is much more important than five little questions. if yo...

Illegally leaked classified information. nice. first, theres a lot wrong with that. the investigation it turns out was not triggered by leaked information. i says no questions on collusion. this is the way the president lies to his base on a consistent basis. those questions are all about collusion. many of them are questions about these various people and how they have likely colluded with the russians. >> i dont know if its likely, but its a question of whether it existed at all, yes, thats ri...
