Investigation in to the 17-year-old school shooter in santa fe. my colleague is in santa fe for us. heartbreaking to say the least. reporter: and that service is still under way. it is a packed service here at arcadia first baptist church. when you are in there, you get a sense of the grief that these families are going through, trying to find some solace in prayer and in community. texas governor greg abbott and his wife are also present. they greeted some of the families as they made their way inside from the pulpit they recognize the work of the local achieve of police who got a standing ovation from the congregation. and this community also prayed for john barnes, he is the santa fe police officer who is still fighting for his life at the hospital. and he is the only person that remains in critical condition at ....
Atkins and betsy woodruff. ladies, good to see you both. kimberly, i ll start with you. what is the latest reporting on the intent of this informant s role and do you think the president s version that he was plabl planted there in an effort to help hillary clinton, is inthat plausible? what we re seeing here is the difference between how federal investigations actually work and the political messaging being put around it. the fbi frequently relies on the information from informants, they put procedures in placeinf. and that is a normal part of any kind of an investigation. but what is happening here, that is being messaged from the president and those who support him as if there was some sort of nefarious plant within his campaign with political motivations behind it. there has been no reporting that ....
They re admitting. as far as not knowing about the other meeting until recently, we re about three to six months behind robert mueller s investigation. every time we find out a piece of news, find out he talked to them three or six months ago, whether this story or cohen s adventures with differing companies, so we re constantly learning things. but the good news is that robert mueller is finding out about it sooner than we are. howard, i am curious, the president starting about 9:00 a.m., railing on twitter about this story. what does that indicate, that he is getting more nervous about this? you know, i don t know. i have long since given up trying to figure out what s going through the president s mind, and i think it is a waste of all our time. what i m interested in is the facts, and the facts are pretty bad. i thought the most damaging thing to the president was the senate intelligence committee joint bipartisan release of the investigation showed that what ....
Course of action. and the fbi has informed chairman nunes and others that that is the case. and so again, it is this idea that something nefarious is going on, it is a political message. it is not an actual evidence, there has been no evidence or reporting that the fbi has done anything out of its normal course. but it is just yet another example of the messaging that is trying to discredit this investigation. what is interesting is initially when the fbi said that they would not release this kind of information, the white house backed that decision. the president now seems to be moving away from that and siding with devin nunes at least with his messaging on twitter trying to compare this to something nefarious and saying that the fbi should be investigating hillary clinton. it is really a political strategy that we re seeing played out. betsy, the president really using twitter this morning in six very hefty tweets that i m ....
We all knew anyway, that nunez is covering for the president. i think he is in trouble, obstruction of justice charge for his behavior. this has not been a good week for donald trump. last question to you, howard, do you expect the mueller investigation to wrap up anytime soon? you look at the depth of what is being reported, where they are in the investigation? i don t know. i mean, there s no way to know that. first of all, i m not an attorney. second of all, this is the last time there was precedent for this was watergate and it took a lot longer. anybody says he is not getting he already has several guilty pleas and indictments which requires grand jury to agree with him. howard dean, thank you for joining with me. susan, not thanking you until 1:45. having you back next hour. okay. keeping north korea on track for june talks. the meeting at the white house this week that could be ....
