Lewandowski disputes. and they take that information and the other leaks allegedly trump sought to get don mcgahn to fire flynn. and what do you think the mueller report looks like in getting that information out. that would be a obstruction of justice, a continuation of the pressure on comey and firing of james comey. president trump has been trying to obstruct the investigation since day one. i don t know if he is he is a russian mole or not. but he is acting like one. trying to did he rail the mueller investigation. s in a critically important investigation for our national security to find out who has been collaborating with the russians. and president trump has troid to obstruct it every step of the with i. for your rebuttal, cory what do you see coming down from the pike from the report? will you abide by the finding mueller has if they re not good for your boss. i think first and foremost we should make the report public. ....
Melissa stays. thanks to each of you. thank you. coming up, donald trump himself has just now unloaded and given his critics and his legal challengers one of the best arguments against the national emergency, admitting he didn t have to do this. i want to do it faster. i could do the wall over a longer period of time. i didn t need to do this. but i would rather do it much faster. is i didn t need to do this the new definition of a emergency. we ll get into that later. mueller s team also looking at collusion as a lawmaker makes quite an extraordinary speech. you need to see this from the senate floor. what does putin have on our president? we can consider the possibility that the president is an asset of the russian government. and news about justice ruth bader ginsburg. i m going to bring it to you later. plus, a fallback friday with senator richard blumenthal and our friend. lizz winstead. you re watching the beat on msnbc. zz winstead. you re watching the beat ....
Allegations that the trump campaign sought his help getting stolen russian material, we re going to report on what he says. what does this gag order mean about us hearing perhaps less from him? well, it s a two-part gag order. part one is it puts a gag on the attorneys for both sides. of course, mueller is not going to say anything. and it also puts a gag order on the attorneys for witnesses. part two is it puts a partial gag order on roger stone. i suppose it s 1,000 feet rule. he can t run his mouth within 1,000 feet of the courthouse. and he can t go on media to make statements that substantially prejudice the jury pool. so it s not a full-fledged gag order against roger stone, but let me tell you what s going to happen. roger stone cannot help running his mouth. and he s going to get on tv. he s going to anger amy jackson, the judge. and she s either going to hold him in contempt, detain him or ....
Have the person who was number one in donald trump s campaign now facing what he could face. i want to compare this to watergate, as so often people compare these rhetorically. let s look at the numbers. here you have four and eight years from john dean, mitchell, take a look at what manafort faces. potentially decades. we don t expect he would actually get all of that, but what does it mean to you if at the end of the day mueller is securing longer prison sentences for a top aide like this than anyone who worked for nixon in watergate? what it says to me is that manafort has engaged in a pattern and consistent practice of lying, seeking to cover up in all kinds of ways that we saw the special counsel actually prove to the judge. for example, giving polling data to kilimnik, a russian agent discussing a secret ukraine peace plan that would have been favorable to the russians and then lying about it. ....
Precedences and why anything that s overbroad, we should be concerned about. you re pointing out if it s limited to basically upholding the propriety of the court process, prejudice being a real issue there, and the guy has tampered allegedly according to mueller with witnesses. he s not above tampering allegedly with jurors. that s exactly right. and gene pointed out that part of the court order is very particularly tailored and it s saying basically you can t go out on to the steps of the courthouse where witnesses might be coming in or prospective jurors, turn it into a circus by holding big press conferences. the judge is basically saying this is a formal government property where there is due process and protections, and we re not going to turn it into some kind of reality show set. right. obviously you don t want to see a government building, melissa, turned into the senate reality show. that wouldn t happen in america. never, never. never. never say never. never. ....
