president, a friend of sessions told me, than anything else. and that has since passed, but the frustrations continue. >> well, that is interesting and in some ways it dovetails a little bit with the picture we've learned from those close to comey. i mean what it sounds to me like is this is a preside whooes not like the notion of the department of justice, the fbi acting independently on this particular topic, which is the russia investigation. >> there are these ongoing probes that really befuddle the white house. they see the investigations on capitol hill, mueller, what the fbi has been doing for months, and they really believe it's going to come to a head on thursday with comey's testimony. there's been talk of having the president even use twitter to directly engage with comey in whatever he ends up saying. there's been talk of a war room even at the white house, but that has been scuttled. >> yeah, there's -- there's this other reporting saying the war room may be on hold. trump forces mobilizing for rapid response on a thursday effort led in part by trump camp's glassner. you're reporting about the sort of rapid response on twitter. i guess my question is what advise is the president being given about how to deal with this testimony on thursday? >> the president wants to be his own messenger. we were talking to newt gingrich. we have a story coming out soon. they say the president is defiant. he wants to punch back any kind of attempt to frame trump as out of bounds by former director comey. so this is going to be a brawl perhaps from the presidential
