thinking isn t a guns situation. when all in starts right now. good evening from new york. i m chris hayes. one week after we learned robert mueller had brought indictments against two top trump officials, announced a guilty plea for a third, all eyes on a former high-ranking official in the trump administration itself, michael flynn. a man who spent 24 days in the white house as the president s national security adviser. nbc news exclusively reporting that shmueler now has enough evidence to file charges in the investigation into flynn and his son michael flynn jr., according to multiple sources familiar with mueller s investigation. to be clear nbc news is not reporting who might be charged, only that there is sufficient evidence to file charges in that investigation. three sources tell nbc news that investigators plan to soon speak with multiple witnesses to gather more information about flynn s lobbying work, including whether he laundered money or lied to federal agents ab
it took place. did you know at the time about that meet something. no, i didn t know anything about it. it must have been a very important meeting, because i never even heard that. no one told you a word, nothing? i know we talked about this on the plane a bit. no, nobody told me. sounded like a very unimportant meeting. deep cuts there from haberman and schmidt. that s not what michael cohen claims, alleging that he and several others were present when then-candidate donald trump gave his nod of approval for the meeting to move forward. that contradicts repeated denials from donald trump jr. and others in donald trump s orbit. did you tell your father anything about this? no. it was such a nothing, there was nothing to tell. i wouldn t have even remembered it until you start scouring through the stuff. the president said he became aware of it very recently, right before this came out, and that s when he was notified. joining me now is jeff

His fam cain has been floundering his campaign has been floundering since essentially january when he was showing that he could be neck and neck with the former president, and since then, he has just gone steadily downhill. now trailing the former president by double digits. and his campaign has spent, well, a pac that is associated with his campaign, a pac that is a separate independent pac that supports him, has spent a substantial amount of money in the last month or so, really trying to make voter contact, and so far, desantis doesn t have much to show for it. it seems that the republican consultants that i talked to say that this tactic, by a lot of the candidates, cannot go after the former president, to not go after trump, to not talk about what he did on january 6th, and it is not necessarily helping them. candidates like desantis have actually floated pardons for trump. saying that, you know, accusing the justice department,
