Ominous prediction, that bill barr would, quote, have an ominous effect on the mueller probe and thus it would end soon. >> one of his many jobs is to have the special counsel read him in on where he is in the underlying charge. >> sure. >> its a simple statement. if theres no collusion -- >> that barr effect sounds like hes going to do something because of bar. >> nope. >> nope or yep? lets get into it. senior fellow at demos, knows her way around washington as well and former federal prosecuto...

As time goes on. im sure mueller has worked that way. whether he will have a report m immine imminently. >> are you hoping or theorizing? >> im theorizing. im analyzing the facts as you have them available and presented them. >> with a grin too boot. >> yes. im a happy guy. >> you know, hes a happy lawyer. ann marie, i think john is making what for many critics of donald trump would say is a best case scenario. what we do here is report the way things look. there is evidence, as ive just gone th...

Have a limitless executive privilege to withhold the information. >> unanimous decision 8-0, justice rehnquist took no part in the decision, ordering the president of the united states to turn over the tapes. >> that was one of those moments in watergate that changed history. we dont know yet whether anything in the mueller report will push toward one of those moments now. the reason we look at the law and constitution and mention tonight there is a very high bar to ever go that far against the ...

But its his hand-picked attorney general who, of course, will decide all of this. if you look at the president there -- we dont do a lot of body language on this show. he, at least, seems to be playing the role of someone who doesnt want to look tense. he seems like a man who is trying to show some lack of worry as to where this is headed. this was not in a bubble. it was six days ago we got the vision of bill barr facing the chief justice and the man who he is investigating and the man that mue...

Election, i thought, would determine how quickly we got this report. between democrats being in a position where tlekd do more investigations in the house and the fact that you now have bob barr, who has made it abundantly clear that he would do whatever he could to protect the president and he questioned muellers investigation, they need to strike while the iron is hot if they want any chance of investigations that are in the report. >> john, if this reporting from the washington post is correc...

Soon. donald trump saying this afternoon his new ag will decide what happens to any mueller report. journalists have been tracking clues that muellers grand jury could be winding down as the doj announces a replacement for muellers old boss this week, rod rosenstein, saying he will leave doj entirely next month and that matters because he suggested that muellers report would be filed before he, rod rosenstein, departs. no one knows what mueller will find or release but we do know the rules that ...

Of trouble. >> still the open probe in d.c.? >> absolutely. >> important context you bring. governor dean, your views on any and all of the above in terms of how it will play in a town that has become obsessed with whatever comes out of the fbi? >> its too early to say. we love to speculate about this. its certainly high drama, particularly when mccabe said he had an investigation just to see if the president of the united states was a russian asset. thats something weve never heard in the histo...

Human they would be called obstruction of justice. what does our constitutional system do when the president is that human? do you see it a little differently? you were the person on the panel who has interacted with these mueller folks. >> it may be a very good chance that it may be winding down. although its very difficult to say. were always reading the tea leaves, figuring out whats happening. they have a new attorney general who is now in charge of this investigation. mueller reports to him...
