This is truecar. the new attorney general william barr is now in charge of the russian probe. they say they want to see special counsels robert muellers findings, no matter what those findings are. deputy general rod rosenstein says the justice department, caution and being careful is much more important. >> when our government makes an allegation of wrongdoing, we need to prove it. government officials may sincerely believe a defendant is guilty, but their belief is irrelevant. investigators ...

That hey, you cant indict a sitting president but you also cannot share information relating to possible impeachment with congress. that would be a checkmate, no way to hold a president accountable. and i would think in the circumstance involving the president if he cannot be indicted there has to be another way that the constitutional structure could hold him accountable for potential wrongdoing. and i think rod rosenstein would gree with that principle 37. >> okay. so john, you mentioned adam ...

That is similar. you said context is everything here. you didnt think he was talking directly about the president. is it really possible that we could go through the last two years, all of the questions, all of the charges and not get any real answers or a real answer as to what robert mueller found? >> i think that is conceivable in reading the actual regulation. so the regulations are different from what governed under whitewater, which was an actual statute. that statute is now gone. regulati...

Whitewater, which is an actual statute. that statute is now gone. regulations were created. and frankly i think maybe they werent crafted in a way that had this particular situation in mind. because what people want to know is if there is information related to wrongdoing on the part of the president of the united states. with respect to other players, if theyre not indicted, other people that are not sitting presidents that are not arguably protected by article 2, i think rod rosenstein and mr....

What could that possibly mean? >> trump asking for moscows advice seems to be a theme that runs through almost everything in this administration. obviously moscow has got some relationship with the north koreans. im sure trump sees this as a way of legitimizing the relationship hes got with putin because he can say, see, i couldnt have done this without the relationship that i have with moscow, and maybe, just maybe, hell feel that will get him a little bit off the hook and distract from things ...

Being a liar and a cheat and a racist. thats not a major surprise to people who formed an opinion on donald trump, but whether this guy brings receipts and has evidence of wrong-doing and criminal activity involving the president. >> right. i think there is very little thats going to happen this week that is not already known by either the prosecutors in the southern district of new york or the special counsels office. they have all the documents. they got them either from cohen himself or searc...

Koreans do or do not adhere to the spirit of the letter in the agreement. >> and the ap is reporting that russian foreign minister sergei lavrov has asked moscows advice in dealing with north korea before this summit. what could that possibly mean? >> trump asking for moscows advice seems to be a theme that runs through almost everything in this administration. obviously moscow has got some relationship with the north koreans. im sure trump sees this as a way of legitimizing the relationship hes...

Information out there so that more and more people buy into the vindication that he has been cleared of any wrongdoing. >> youre our political director. lets talk a little bit about the presidential town hall tonight with bernie sanders. what are you going to be listening for? >> wolf, youre going to be there moderating this. what im so intrigued to hear, i know bernie sanders was asked whats going to be thdifferent this time? im going to win this time. i want to hear from him, what makes you ge...

Did. it is an accusation of wrong doing. they found a way to get that into the court documents. it is possible that unless something happens where mueller puts something in a court document or someone is charged with something new we may not see anymore new information or certainly anything that will directly link the president to any kind of collusion. >> what kind of action can congress take if the report isnt transparent? >> as they have said, they planning to call people to testify. they may...
