If we can bring up the testimony just a little bit so we can talk over it and here if there's anything interesting when he gets to questions or answers but. Reads as follows the evidence we have change about the president's actions and intent presents difficult issues that prevent us from conclusively determining that no criminal conduct occurred accordingly while this report does not conclude that the president committed a crime it also does not exonerate him now I read that correctly Yes Now your report and today you said at all times the special counsel team operated under was guided by and followed Justice Department policies and principles so which d.o.j. Policy or principle sets forth a legal standard that investigated person is not exonerated if their innocence from criminal criminal conduct is not conclusively determine that's question last part of the congressman Radcliffe which d.o.j. Policy or principle sent for it's a legal standard that an investigative person is not exonerated if there is. Since from current criminal conduct is not conclusively determine. Or does that language come from director where is the d.o.j. Policy that says that. Can you let me make it easier it is Ok There you go at it can you give me an example other than Donald Trump where the Justice Department to determine that an investigative person was not exonerated because their innocence was not conclusively determine. I cannot put this or do you mean Ok well you can't time it short I've got 5 minutes let's just leave it you can't find it because I'll tell you why it doesn't exist the special counsel's job nowhere does it say that you were to conclusively determine down trumps innocence or that the special counsel either way this is firm and whether or not to exonerate. The documents is not a republican order it's not in the special counsel regulations it's not in the o l c opinions it's not in the justice manual and it's not the principles of federal prosecution no where do those words appear together because respectfully respectfully director it was not the special counsel's job to conclusively determine Donald Trump's innocence or to exonerate him because the bedrock principle of our justice system is a presumption of innocence exist for everyone everyone is entitled to it including sitting presidents and because there is a presumption of innocence prosecutors never ever need to conclusively determine it now director the special counsel applied this inverted burden of proof that I can't find and use it doesn't exist anywhere in the department policies and you used it to write a report and the very 1st line of your report the very 1st line of your report says and you as you read this morning it authorizes a special counsel to provide the attorney general with a confidential report explaining the prosecution or declamation decisions reached by the special counsel that's the very 1st word of your report right that's correct . Here's the problem director the special counsel didn't do that. On volume one you did. Too with respect to potential of obstruction of justice the special counsel made neither a prosecution decision or a declaration decision you made no decision you told us this morning and in your report that you made no determination so respectfully director you didn't follow the special counsel regulations it clearly says write a confidential report about decisions reached no where in here does it say write a report about decisions that weren't reached you wrote $180.00 pages $180.00 pages about decisions that weren't reached about potential crimes that weren't charged or decided and respectfully respectfully by doing that you managed to violate every principle and the most sacred of traditions about prosecutors not offering extra prosecutorial analysis about potential crimes that are charged So Americans need to know this as they listen to Democrats and socialists on the other side of the aisle as they do dramatic readings Thank you Texas this report that volume 2 of this report was not authorized under the law to be written it was written to a legal standard that does not exist at the Justice Department and it was written by lation every d.o.j. Principle about extra prosecutorial commentary I agree with the chairman this morning when he said Donald Trump is not above the law he's not but he did I'm sure shouldn't be below the law which is where volume 2 of this report puts him. All really good points by Radcliffe I would have liked to have her my druthers. Now we go to another Texan Sheila Jackson Lee from campaign chair by a man of what was passing sensitive voter information in polling data to a Russian operative and there was some any other way that Russian. Subverted democracy together with the evidence in volume one I cannot think of a more serious need to investigate so now I'm going to answer some questions about obstruction of justice as a relates to Volume 2 why she. Did it is. Really. All she has to do is stick your hand into the. Polian. Put some of you put some gas wells on her hair and it looks like he knew for sure that. That is we determine that there was a sufficient factually legal basis to further investigate potential obstruction of justice issues nor it is on the page because someone told me quote For put it on a separate page your report also describes at least 10 separate instances of possible obstruction of justice that were investigated by you and your team is that . In fact the table of contents serves as a very good gun of some of the there is a. There is a table of contents is that correct sir yes and that serves as a guide to find what you wrote is that correct sir yes these numbers seem to be patient embers identifying where these pieces of the report exist yes correct yes all are. President's orders done again to deny that the president tried those same numbers on pages in the later in your report. I direct you now to what you wrote directed mo that are as a pattern of conduct as a whole share of light on the nature of the president's acts and the inferences that can be drawn about isn't it does that mean you have to investigate all of his conduct to ascertain true motives. And when you talk about the president's pattern of conduct that include the 10 possible acts of obstruction that you investigate track when you talk about the present pattern of conduct remedies dress like a struggle that you. Are reporting are all that is characterized Thank you let me go to the screen again and for each of those 10 potential instances of obstruction of justice you analyze 3 elements of the crime of obstruction of justice and obstructive act. The nexus between the acronym for superseding and. You wrote on page 178. Caught this is the strategy going to it is important to understand what Democrats are doing what they believe is that the American people not read this report they don't know what's in it and it would you damning So what they're going to do is read sections from the report basically pick the right things that look worst for trump the worst things they can find her and then just have Muller say yes that is what I said I like giving them they're trying to get these viral moments out of reading the report because they know he's not going to say anything additional This is why this is such a circus can you please get the theme from Barry Lyndon because I need it under She thought Jackson Lee as I'm just watching it is that this is not a viral moment at all and I don't think the American people are really interested I think the I think Congress is interested in this and I think for all the wrong reasons the media's interested in this but I don't think you're going to find anything from Muller today that is is new at all and you're just going to solidify people's positions where they already are I would like to to hear at some point if I'm sure they'll get back to it I would love to hear mother's response to the questions from Radcliffe made to like hey you know you invented this new thing where it's not innocent or guilty it's well we couldn't prove the guilt so. We couldn't prove the innocence so maybe he was guilty that new legal standard I'd love to hear that one explained for Mahler at some point and hopefully we get to that today yeah well we'll we'll see I doubt it. And I want to pause for just a 2nd just to tell you about 23 and Me It's our it's our sponsor this half hour if you're a fan of trivia Here's a little nugget that has been floating around for a while and you know that 16000000 people on the planet today are directly related to. Ganga's Kohn Now that is a surprisingly large number when you consider that in the 13th century Khan was blazing a trail of violent conquest across much of Eastern Asia apparently one of his favorite things to do after a hard day of burning and pillaging was to spend time with the ladies and you know if often against their will but he spent. Time with the ladies So here's a question. Are you related to gangs Khan. Does your heart beat with a thundering rhythm of the warrior or do you feel like you were made for something greater like you should be riding a horse and shooting arrows rather than sitting at your desk sometimes do you stand outdoors facing east and think I bet I could take Dave's house if I really tried. Sounds like you might have some soul searching to do but you also might want to find out if you're a direct descendant of gang is gone 23 and me can help you do it in addition to finding out whether you're you know descended from that bloodthirsty killer 23 and me will also offer the state of the art look at the part of your genes and what it plays in your every day life for instance if you've always suspected that you feel sleepy or than others after missing a night's sleep you're probably not imagining things your genes could be involved 23 and Me they were in the their reports don't diagnose diseases or describe overall likelihood of developing any disease but 23 and Me test selected gene variants and they will tell you what you might be predisposed to 23 and Me slash back important test information order your health an ancestry kit at 23 and Me dot com slash back let me say this way in case you are related to gag order or all kill you number 23 and Me dot com slash back 10 2nd station id do you have an h.d. Radio logo on your car radio listen to the. Tune in now at one of $2.00 . Man x. The the council here. Is. They spent 2 hours yesterday the Democrats in the closed door session rehearsing and practicing now we go to Mr Sensenbrenner. And his cross-examination of. Material including hundreds of references to 3 o 2 interviews by the f.b.i. For individuals who've never been cross-examined and which did not comply with the special. Councils governing regulation to explain the prosecution are neknomination decisions reached racked. Where you're reading problem that I'm reading from my question. Could you repeat it Ok it perhaps 182 pages arrive and ensure the material hundreds of references the 30 Tuesday were never been cross-examined in which didn't comply with the governing regulation to explain the prosecution or declaration neck nation decisions reached this is one of those areas which I declined to discuss. Would direct you to the report itself what I look at stuff about 182 pages and you know let me switch gears he's championed and say something that would be happening at a nursing home. And then you know. Where I don't know you gave me a paper. There could be a sequel to last Vegas scene happens an old man there. Is report stated that the President Clinton's actions may have risen to impeachable conduct recognising that it is now up to the House of Representatives determine what conduct is impeachable you never use the term raising to impeach Bush for any of the 10 instances that the gentleman from Texas right. Did is if there's nothing in volume view of the report that says that the president may have been gazed in impeachable conduct Well we have seen. Kept in. Our mandate and our mandate does not go to other ways of addressing conduct our mandate goes to . What. Developing the report and going to report it to the attorney general respect you know it's it seems to me you know there are a couple of statements that you made you know that said that this is not for me to decide in the implication is that this is for this committee to. Now you didn't use the word impeachable conduct like start there was no stance you do prevent you from using the word impeachable crime that go back to what Mr Radcliff said and I did and that is that even the president is it isn't until proven guilty and my time is up here and his time is expired. From Tennessee that's a really good point you understand what he was trying to say here. And you don't need a van because you had the whole audience you could. Hear them go ahead everybody had what you what he said there was now I can remember. Going to by the way just to remind you good and no need for the Radio Hall of Fame is. What he was what he was saying there was a look you can put opinions out there and say it's up for this committee because impeachment is your own standard but you didn't say impeachment you were talking about a possible crime is and well I don't know I mean you could look at it this way you would look at it that way yeah well that is that's putting the president below the law right and he's also making the point that hey Ken Starr did see it as an Peach Bowl he put it in his report why didn't you put it in yours and of course it. Is there that it was an impeachable. He didn't agree with. Also they were old record he was a plea Mr Cohen National Council and particularly you because of your outstanding record Democrat to your point the attorney John recused himself from the investigation because of his role in the 26 to. The campaign is that not correct. Refusal means the attorney general cannot be involved in the investigation is that correct that's the effect of recusal Yes And so instead another trump appointee as you know Mr Sessions was Mr Rosenstein became in charge of but it. Wasn't attorney general sessions following the rules and professional advice of the Department of Justice ethics when he recused himself from the investigation. And yet the president repeatedly expressed his displeasure at session's decision to follow the 6 rules to recuse himself from oversight of that investigation is that not correct that's accurate based on what is written in the report and the president's reaction . To the refusal is noted in the report Mr Bannon recall that the president was mad as mad as Bannon had never seen him and he screamed at my Gann about how weak sessions was from the report. This is ridiculous this is I mean this is really what sort of president gets in there. And of course it's just a show again it's the Hollywood or ugly people thing like that's what this is a show and they're trying to just read from their questions they know are in the report right so here's the thing we could just take the Republicans because they're saying something new and then you could read the report you know if you
