let people see it. that s up to the attorney general. we have a very good attorney general. he s a very highly respected man. and we ll see what happens. former cia director john brennan weighed in on trump s day of outrage with this. your bizarre tweets and recent temper tantrums reveal your panic overt likelihood the special counsel will soon further complicate your life, putting your political and financial future in jeopardy. fortunately, lady justice does not do non-disclosure agreements. a reminder of what mueller has accomplished in nearly two years may explain some of the obvious discomfort. convictions and guilty pleas for seven of trump s former senior aides with another 27 individuals under indictment. there s also increased scrutiny of ivanka trump and jared kushner. more on that ahead as well as donald trump jr. there are at least eight separate lines of inquiry by federal and state prosecutors spun off the mueller investigation and the new inquiries on capitol hill fr
the press had learned that he had had these meetings with a russian ambassador, a russian banker connected to the kremlin, and he had not put them on his security clearance forms. and very uncharacteristically he made a sort of impassioned argument to the president in front of people. i mean, jared s normal method of communicating with trump is to sort of corner him quietly, which really annoyed reince priebus, who was trying to manage the place. but this time in front of everyone he said to the president you ve got to fire james comey and here are three reasons why. the fbi doesn t like him, the democrats don t like him, and the base will love it. you know, steve bannon, you know, wily strategist, disagreed with him on every single point.
he turned it over to the fbi hoping to put me in jeopardy. he voted against repeal and replace. he voted against at 2:00 in the morning. remember, thumbs down. we said what the hell happened? i endorsed him at his request, and i gave him the kind of funeral that he wanted. which as president i had to approve. i don t care about this. i didn t get a thank you. that s okay. we sent him on the way. but i wasn t a fan of john mccain. trump today also kept up his criticism of conservative lawyer george conway, the husband of kellyanne conway, one of the president s senior and longest-serving advisers. conway has been using posts online to raise alarms about the president s mental health and his fitness for office. trump was asked about that as he left for ohio. i don t know him. he s a wack job. there s no question about it. but i really don t know him. i think he s doing a tremendous disservice to a wonderful wife.
bombshell in this report and that the president will then be able to run with that, be able to run on the idea that this entire mueller investigation was nothing but an instance of government overreach, this witch hunt he has been railing against. and he s going to hope that the allies in congress can help him to do that. however, you re going to have democrats on the hill continuing with their investigation saying look, the mueller report was only investigating this one sliver of trump s conduct, looking specifically at russian election interference. we have all of these other avenues that we are looking into. trump s other foreign dealings, issues like money laundering, looking into security clearances. all of these other things where the president is going to need republicans to have his back. we walked our viewers up to the edge in the first 17 minutes of this broadcast, and with it our thanks to jill colvin, our thanks and added happy birthday wishes to our friend phil rucker as
litmus test questions this time around like reparations, like court packing, like are you in favor of tossing aside the electoral college. the other one is the green new deal. now, the green new deal has us all riding around on high-speed rail. we don t have a legit high-speed rail system yet in this country. you guys can t get a new tunnel dug under the hudson river between new york and new jersey, where anywhere between 10% and 20% of our gdp passes through that corridor. why not? i d say the you guys just with a little asterisk. the trump administration you guys who run new jersey and new york exactly. new jersey and new york are all in. the the port authority s all in. across the hudson and across the political aisle importantly, we need the trump administration to get all in as the obama administration had been before. isn t that infrastructure? it s one area where president trump or candidate trump was running i kept saying this is the one area i can see common gr
