Interviews with political figures and news updates. Theyre speaking from the same playbook. But this is a tough line to walk, andrea. Ken dilanian, you had dan coats, head of national intelligence, questioned about the dissonance there. Lets watch. In the runup to the helsinki summit, u. S. Officials, ambassadors to nato, ambassadors to russia, said that the president would raise the issue of malign activity with the president. Im not in a position to either understand fully or talk about what happened at helsinki. Ken, it does seem that dan coats and the rest of the team have still not been briefed on what happened during that private one on one. And thats remarkable, andrea. Dan coats is the nations top intelligence official. He needs to know these things, he needs to understand where the russians are coming from, and what potential negotiations took place between the president and the russian leader. This News Conference was such a fascinating mixture of cynical
meddling. Thats not
in cyprus, but he asked him to lie. he said, will you please say this is a private presence where my wife and i stay in new york so we don t have to pay taxes on it. and he wrote back and said, it s never been my understanding that it s your private residence, in fact it s a rental, a business expense, and you need to pay taxes on it. we re seeing that it s not just that manafort didn t keep track. he willfully, knowingly obscured these data points in his finances. that s exactly what the prosecution needs to prove in this case, that it was knowing and willful. harry, as the former prosecutor, how damaging is it that the judge here, who is apparently very well-respected by his colleagues, with his taking a very forceful role in arguing and directing both prosecutors and defense on how they should frame questions, even, and in keeping pictures of all of this extravagant closets
