just any investigators, not just investigators who happen to investigate while trump was president, not investigators who may have had one of the pieces of paper that cross their desk into russia, durham's mandate was to investigate the investigators who investigated interference by russia in the 2016 election. and what a lot of people talk about when they revisit the mueller report is the trump figures that were charged that pleaded, mueller also indicted a whole lot of russians. >> yeah, that's true. >> durham was the man in charge of the investigation and he doesn't know basic facts? he either misstates or erroneously recounts the conclusions of the mueller report. what was that? >> the sense i got from watching that exchange is that durham didn't want to get led down a path where he was criticizing the political response to the leaks of those e-mails by donald trump. he was trying to do what robert mueller tried to do in his own

exchange? and his responses are in direct contradiction to the mueller report. >> he was really trying to down-play the significance of the president's son, being offered dirt on hillary clinton something represented of don junior as part of the russian government's effort to try and help the trump campaign, taking that information to a secret meeting he wanted to down-play it. he wanted to suggest this happens all the time. and in that answer and so many others what it really betrayed is what exactly he accused the fbi of, and that is confirmation bias. you could really see his bias into thinking what the trump campaign did was fine or he wasn't going to call it collusion even though there is no other name for what the trump campaign tried to do. but he clearly didn't want to provide any answer that he thought belittling of the former president and really in doing so

you did produce a 300-page report, though, and that's given my republican counter parts plenty of material to spin. >> the democrats on the house judiciary committee also drilled down on what durham does not mention in his report, namely the undocumented and frankly unavoidable ties everyone knows existed between the 2016 campaign and russia. >> did anything in your report prove false that russians met with trump's family during the campaign at trump tower after an offer of dirt on hillary clinton? anything prove that meeting didn't happen? >> i don't have any evidence that that did not happen. >> anything to prove false in the 2016 campaign donald trump tried and concealed from the public a real estate deal he was seeking in moscow? >> i don't know anything about that. there's nothing in the report about it. it's not something we investigated. >> did you prove -- did donald trump not say at a press conference, russia, if you're

their participation in the 2016 election, it was bizarre to see a current employee of merrick garland's justice department say nothing. i mean there wasn't even a note of it would be very serious for a hostile foreign power to intervene. i mean how -- how daunting is that ahead of another presidential election that republicans and john durham whatever party he's in these days, are all interested in fogging up the lens around russia's role in meddling in an election? >> i mean it is really alarming because, of course, there's no question that russia may try to do exactly this again. that is decide donald trump would be really good for them and they're going to intervene. and now with a.i. they have more powerful tools to be able to do that. but it is shocking. some very basic questions we asked him about the wrongfulness trying to get dirt from a hostile foreign power in that trump tower meeting, heole really shied away from giving

his responding to media interest in the trump tower meeting and concerning witnesses which he appeared to praise or condemn based again they were fighting the charges against the investigation. they more directly implicate the concerns of the statute. if the president were to perjure himself, tamper with testimony or corrupt evidence, we do not believe that any of these actions described in the report would meet such a standard. none of these instances the president sought to conceal criminal conduct, nor is there to provide investigations to the april doubt. i believe don mcgahn was snuck in and out of the dock, and mcgahn spent 30 hours testifying, donald trump fired him. i don't know if they had access to the reports well before the rest of us did, but what are they talking about, pete strzok?

to build trump tower moscow. maybe it had to do with the fact a trump tower meeting occurred with the russian delegation asking for dirt on hillary clinton. may it hard to do with the fact a russia oligarch employed paul manafort to have him doing lobbying. what did trump do? he not only benefited but rewarded it. >> tom winter, if you want to go back to see how dangerous the so-called russian hoax was, you don't have to listen to msnbc primetime hosts. you don't have to read "the new york times" editorial page. just read the republican senate intel committee report. >> that's a very good point. >> when marco rubio was running that committee, talking about the danger to america's national security that donald trump's contacts, his campaign's contacts with russia posed. >> and they actually advanced mueller's report understanding of that.
