Dearth of interest but important to understand is that theres a whole lot about the nature of the connections between the kremlin and the american political process that we just dont know. now, we do know that capitol hill has been much leakier than the mueller probe coming to sort of telegraphing what theyre working on, found out. at the same time, though, theres a lot of interesting information that has not been leaked. and elijah cummings indicated that about a week ago when he said that they...

Dont know. now, we do know that capitol hill has been much leakier than the mueller probe coming to sort of telegraphing what theyre working on, found out. at the same time, though, theres a lot of interesting information that has not been leaked and ely jo cummings indicated that a couple of weeks ago when they said theyd known about a controversial conversation mike flynn had had, i believe, from the dias of the capitol in the inauguration and cummings committee sat on the information for mont...

Conspiracy, but its a good way to lock in a witness, get them to cooperate very early in a case. so i think a lot of that is whats going on. you see the two guilty pleas we have, theyre both 1001 claims. thats not something thats typically used all the time. but its also a resource that in in case the special counsel has to lock in that testimony, that proffer, to find out whats going on and to move forward with the investigation. >> barb, to your point if flynn were pardoned, that would be a fe...

Telegraphing that this could be for example a state attorney generals and reports the new york attorney general might be investigating reports around manafort that could expand. i dont know there could be state jurisdiction over everything going on but certainly it parallels many things most states have a computer fraud and abuse statute for example. if that becomes one of the crimes. so if they have to shift gears and move into the state realm to avoid a pardon scenario, i think robert mueller ...

Again, you see the president of russia and the president of the united states echoing each other. president putin today describing those allegations of meddling in the election as delirium, madness, supporting president trumps record saying that the markets are going up because of trust in president trump. so the two of them dont need to be colluding, but they are listening to each other and so far, they seem to be in pretty close lock step, if you like. although president putin did say one thin...

Ask barbara mcquade but wonder if prosecutors wouldnt use the technique to perhaps rattle potential witnesses and to signal to them that, you know, i know a whole lot more than you think i know an you dont know all of what i know. >> barbara, go ahead. >> yeah. you know, i dont know that robert mueller feels the need to rattle anybody. i think he has so much power that people are adequately rattled but i think theres deliberate, strategic things he does as eugene suggests. filing the documents c...

Does as eugene suggests. filing the documents called statement of the offense with a lot of detail, identifying officials by title, you know, senior trump transition team official, very senior trump team transition official. those are telegraphing to the people, they know who they are and i think its a message to say, if you want to cooperate, we know who you are, too, maybe nows the time to come in the door. >> barbara, eugene, thank you both for joining us tonight. >> thank you. coming up, m...
