The latest political developments of the day and interviews with top newsmakers are featured. order is, territory now. and i wonder if they ve had a chance to explain to the president what you reported last week, that under this beefed up post-enron witness tampering law, he may have more exposure than he understands. they seem to be leaning on a first amendment defense, which is not going to hold up if your reporting holds up he s being scrutinized for the way these fit together. what rudy giuliani said today is this is ridiculous, the clip you played. the idea obstruction by tweet. he said it was bizarre and idiotic and there was nothing to it and the president can express his opinions. the thing about the president and obstruction and collusion, you know, interference or whatever you want to call it is the president usually focuses on the russia question. he says, this is a witch hunt. there was no collusion. he repeats that over and over again. the thing is that does the ....
It s going to be hard to say right now because i still think we re guided by the same principles that they can t reveal information that is still under investigation. but i think they re going to probably go deeper than they ve gone in any other filings trying to link paul manafort to what was really going on here. i think you re right, their theory has been that paul manafort is the central figure in this entire investigation, certainly on the collusion end whether or not he was somehow getting help from the russians for the campaign, so that s going to probably be laid out a little bit more. but look, the judge already knows a lot here. we ve got through so many different hearings, the breach of the cooperation agreement. but what is significant in all this, john, is this could be the last significant filing from the mueller team, because we do expect him to wrap up, if not today, any day next week. that s where the intrigue kicks in, in the sense that if you re robert mueller, you ....
United states, it comes with a different weight and i m not sure that everyone in the white house or outside of it that s close to the president really appreciates that. so, if you could just paint for us the picture of what mike and his colleague maggie reported last week mueller stitching together these pieces, how does it fit into an exhibit of obstruction of justice? there are two parallel things going on that intersect, because i think that the smoke that we re starting to see including from mike and maggie s reporting, but also that we are starting to see from some of these michael cohen leaks and critically now that the manafort trial is starting and rick gates is a cooperating witness is taking center stage, i don t think it s a coincidence that he s lashing out this way in an obstructive nature when we are starting to see in the public a little bit more of the collusion end of things. and remember, we don t know what rick gates has told bob mueller about any russia collusi ....
yeah. which means that donald trump is almost certainly going to have to give a deposition in that civil suit. is they are in the going to postpone it until after his presidency. not going to postpone it. secondly, out of the investigation out of new york by saying that the guy was basically not my lawyer, that means it is an open field of fire for the prosecutors there. then, to turn to the investigation by mueller, for him to say, you know, i will deal with the justice department at some point. he didn t just say there was one phrase where he didn t say it conditionally, he said i will get to the justice department. a threat. which is waving a red flag on the obstruction end of things in bold way. and then finally his saying he said this of about with, but i noticed it today. he said there was no collusion with me. and on the collusion end of things. interesting, with me. with me. yeah. that means that manufacture of and cohen who are going to be squeezed no ....
