Spoke. it's up to the congress, which we knew he put in this report to decide whether or not there were crimes in office. in some ways we heard the speaker try to avoid this day, kick the can down the road, we'll hear from mueller later, mueller says the evidence is here, congress decides this and he says what mr. brennan repeated and what you reported, craig, if we had confidence the president did not commit a crime, we would have said so. translation, bob mueller looked sbh into this, bob mueller has a sterling reputation, bob mueller saying we don't have evidence the president didn't commit...

Team found, spending 22 months investigating these things, what they concluded. because that's what's been lost in all of the back and forth and all of the misleading comments from the attorney general and the president's supporters. so i think that's really what we need from him. i hope that's what we get from him. and maybe he'll surprise us and also give us some information about why what he said is not what the attorney general reported. but i suspect not. you know, i suspect he'll keep it to the four cancorners of th report, and that's the most important thing. >> jennifer rogers, great t...
