the inspector general is supposed to report that to congress. the president considers obeying the law disloyal. this looks like part of a cover-up to me. your thoughts. >> this is consciousness of guilt. he is america's lawyer. and if the president were to fire him, we would just conclude he's doing that because he's guilty. and again, chris, innocent people do not threaten their investigators with a firing or talk about their investigators in this way. so if the president, you know, does this, you know, we will consider it for articles for either obstruction -- obstruction of congress or obstruction of justice. but there's enough evidence right now to show there was a shakedown scheme going all the way to the top, and we're going to have to answer the question as americans do we want to go there with presidents acting this way? i think most americans are going to say no, that's not who we are. >> well, i think that sizes it up well. thank you u.s. congressman eric
