Mr. trump has expressed skepticism about the paris accord and says twit hurl u.s. business. im caroline shively. now back to "the ingraham angle." >> laura: just what is special counsel bob mueller investigating and why? our next guest argues the media is getting it wrong when it comes to the russia probe. joining us with more, andy mccarthy. andy, i love your columns, period. >> thanks, laura. >> laura: youre so good. i loved your most recent one where you raise the question of whether mueller ...

About whether mueller is like santa claus, you know, that he knows whos naughty and whos nice. >> knows when youre sleeping, knows when youre awake. >> yes. >> chris, i should follow it up, i just saw -- my bad. i was remiss. you say you havent seen evidence of a broader conspiracy but youre starting to see the building blocks. can you explain a little bit more to me what you meant by that? >> i see some significance in the flynn plea and what he pled to, because if this were the end of the line...

About admitting it, it still does not justify an obstruction case or anything else. and were giving them the benefit of the doubt that they didnt know what they were doing. as you know, ive been on enough, i feel like they knew exactly what they were doing. >> yeah. as ive been saying, everything you predicted has happened almost in the exact timeframe that you have predicted it. chris, i have to ask you about this, because also tonight were learning more about the fbi agent removed from mueller...

Know, maybe he is more willing to satisfy the russians than he is to worry about a prosecution, which goes to his long ties to the russians. and we dont know yet. we dont know how mueller knew about this editorial. that, to me, is an amazing question. how did -- the editorial wasnt published and it has questions about whether mueller is like santa claus, you know, that he knows whos naughty and whos nice. >> knows when youre sleeping, knows when youre awake. >> yes. >> chris, i should follow it ...

>> at this stage, they were duped and they were suckers and took all these meetings. the obstruction case would -- is separate from that. in other words, once they realize that, uh-oh, i got duped, if they keep lying to investigators, theyre in trouble for separate reasons. thats why when robert and the previous panel was saying maybe politics was motivating this, right, they were just nervous about admitting it, it still does not justify an obstruction case or anything else. and were giving the...

Papadopoulos and it reads to me like a kind of mad libs for compromised blowhards and scumbags. you have people unnamed in here who know what they have done because they are being named and because this defendant, papadopoulos, has pled guilty to all the charge. so all of these claims are certified as true according to this guy who has now flipped and is working with them. papadopoulos, its been reported, might have been responsible for that 5:00 a.m. fbi raid at manaforts house which means he k...

Obstruction of justice. >> i think theres already proof of obstruction of justice from president trumps tweets. im with jeffrey toobin on this. when you say youre firing comey because of an investigation, thats obstruction. whether mueller can prove it is another question. but theres no doubt in my mind that the obstruction of justice charges are part of a larger underlying crime of which i dont think we have a clear picture of yet and maybe its unfolding before our eyes as more people speak up ...

We dont need a special prosecutor for that. the question is, is the only going to investigate collusion between the trump campaign allegedly and the russians or is it going to involve the clintons? >> shannon: do you trust him to follow the facts? theres a lot of folks on both sides of the aisle who says that he will go after democrats if he finds a ledge of a net reason to come if they have broken the law. a lot of folks on the hill -- lindsey graham said they would be "holy hell to pay" of the...

Department investigation in recent memory that had 20 prosecutors assigned to it? it just doesnt happen. my guess is the terrorist operation, antiterrorist operation right now in response to yesterdays attack might have similar numbers. but this is a mini justice department being run by mr. mueller and people who are appointed by the president and subjected to senate confirmation are justs supervising him prayed for to make this indictment, not about the price of tea in china, what about somethi...
