The whole obstruction of justice investigation. that's part of what started the whole kit and caboodle. in a court ruling tonight, a federal district court judge in d.c. ordered that the fbi must show the public more of what was in comey's memos than we have been able to to see thus far. now, this ruling tonight is a win for cnn, which was the plaintiff in this case. they were suing the government to try to make them release more of this stuff. it's a loss for the fbi, which was fighting to keep this stuff secret. that said, we don't know exactly what's going to be redacted from the memos and ...

Eventually, even if it takes another presidency, two years from now, eventually all of this will come out? >> yeah, lawrence, and i think faster than that. i think it's worth remembering that just four weeks ago we got donald trump's tax returns from this very same period, from 1958 to 1994, documents that had been secret for 20 years. what you're seeing in rapid succession is this information about trump in this period of time starting to come to light. the citadel of secrecy starting to unravel. it's no surprise, right? the heat is on trump. his fixer is in jail, michael cohen. the subpoenas...
