Impeachment proceedings against president trump. those words matter. as for trump, he continued today, not only to dangle a pardon for manafort, explicitly, to the "new york post," but essentially to justify it by comparing bob mueller to joseph mccarthy. the president today tweeting, "at least three major players are intimating that the angry mueller gang of dems is viciously telling witnesses to lie about facts and they will get relief. this is our joseph mccarthy era." keep in mind, of course, as we've said again and again, bob mueller himself is a republican, lauded by both democrats and r...

Things that mueller is looking at right now. but it also is interesting, because on both legs of this, the trump tower meeting that manafort attended and the wikileaks piece that roger stone and jerome coursey have information about, there have been significant public reports talked about on this show and elsewhere that essentially the witnesses who mueller would need to prove that trump is lying either aren't cooperating or are lying themselves. >> and eliana, the president answering these questions, but in whatever way, i mean, because from what i understand from talking to people who have b...

People manafort, corsy. i don't know corsy, but he refuses to say what they demanded. corsi is front and center in the mueller probe, and wow, does he have a story you'll want to hear? >> glad to be back with you again. >> the rejected plea agreement and his willingness to spill the details landing him on mueller's bad side. >> my attorneys said that special counsel wasn't very pleased. they said we'll take it from here. >> draft court filings into he received in plea discussions shed light on how a right wing serious theorist landed at the center of mueller's investigation. e-mails included i...

>> james, i mean, you know, trump has never criticized manafort and again and again and again he says positive things, even after manafort agreed to cooperate with prosecutors. how is that not dangling a pardon, saying, just the be quiet, don't worry. >> if this is a crime, it's the most conspicuous crime in the history of man to have a tweet that basically says, why would i give up the possibility of pardons in front of whatever, 300 million americans and god knows how many other people. i mean, most obstruction takes place quietly and maybe more effectively because there's a criminal intent....
