Many republicans are focusing on the fact that comey admitted to leaking information and the fact that President Trump never told mr. Comey to drop the investigation into michael flynn, only that he hoped it would go away. Nbc 10s lauren mayk was the only local reporter inside todays hearing. Shes joining us live from inside that hearing room. Tell us more about what you saw today, lauren. Reporter jim, you know, this hearing room has cleared out now but i can tell you there is now still work going on behind the scenes. For example, multiple senators here in this room today, they said that they wanted to see those memos that jim comey wrote detailing his nine oneonone interactions, conversations with the president. So that is just one of the things still happening. Now, the chair of this committee telling us after the hearing that this investigation is not over. Jim comey leaving the hearing room after giving senators wifnt to take in. The former fbi director saying nothing to us and the cameras after a two and a half hour testimony to the Senate Intelligence committee. Do you believe the russia investigation played a role . In why i was fired . Yes. Yes, because ive seen the president say so. Reporter the republican chair of the committee announcing. This is nowhere near the end of our investigation. The one message that i hoped all americans will take home is recognizing how significant the russian interference in our electric trorl process was, how it goes to the core of our democracy. Reporter but much of the hearing today focusing on comeys interactions with President Trump. When a president of the United States in the oval office says something like, i hope, or i suggest, or would you, do you take that as a directive . Yes. Senator first coops said he found the former fbi director today believable. Did you hear anything that strikes you as obstruction of justice . Thats a legal conclusion that im not going to jump to but what i did hear is that President Trump engaged in shocking uncalled for inappropriate unethical behavior incc repeatedly meeting with t fbi director and pushing him to abandon an investigation against general flynn. Reporter and former director comey said multiple times here today that he couldnt talk about something in open session, often it was about that russia investigation. And i can tell you that senators here today the ones on this committee did get a chance to have a closed door session with him in a secure room just down the hall from here right afterwards. One senator said afterwards that much of what they talked about they actually did already know but he also said that on the issue of whether there is obstruction of justice, again, jim comey would not make a judgment on that, pushing that over to bob muller, the special counsel. Jim. Lauren, fascinating to see you this afternoon inside that room with no one there. It was packed earlier today. You were inside. So describe for us what you noticed while you were in there perhaps that the public didnt get a chance to see. Reporter you know, jim, one of the things i noticed wasnt necessarily something you could see but something you could hear actually. Jim comey was sitting right there at that table and in front f1 o photographers, print photographers, their cameras make noises, its something that you watching at home you probably couldnt hear that because he was using a microphone so you probably couldnt hear that, but when youre sitting here in the room you can and they started to go off every time he mentioned something that was surprising, something we didnt know. Most of these people in the room probably read his Opening Statement that was put out yesterday so he knew some of the things he might talk about, but, for example, as you mentioned he firing which we were not expected. So when things like that happen you heard the clatter of those cameras going off. Probably couldnt hear that at home. Jim. Lauren mayk, thanks for that perspective. And our Team Coverage does not stop here. Still ahead at 5 15 we go oneonone with Nbcs Lester Holt. The why his interview with the president was front and center today on capitol hill.

Covering james comeys testimony today. We will talk live to Nbcs Lester Holt about the dispute between what the president told him and what james comey says happened. A. This is nbc 10 news. Tonight all eyes on washington, thentkptah aatk hearing is the big buzz in our nations capitol and the outcome could potentially impact President Trump. This is one of the most highly anticipated congressional hearings in decades and Nbcs Lester Holt is joining us now. Thanks for being here essentially from different parts of the same building tonight. You recently conducted that exclusive interview with the president now a big dispute between what the president told you and what comey said happened as sort of he said he said that we saw center stage tonight. What do you make of that . Well, on a couple levels one was the whole timing of that dinner that they discussed, the president had told me that comey had requested the interview, that he wanted to talk about his job. Comeys testimony is just the opposite, he says the president called him that day and said, look, i will have your family over at some point but id like you to come over, they dined alone, and he says the president brought up his job which he thought they had already discussed. There was that, then the issue of the firing itself. You will recall the president told me that he was thinking about that russia thing when he chose to fire comey and comey says he now takes the president at his word and that he originally believed he was fired because of his handling of the clintondd affair, but he says after hearing that interview he took the president at his word and he believes he was fired because of that russia thing as the president put it. Yeah, and james comey essentially saying today the administration was lying when they described why comey was fired because of his impact at the agency. Actually calling out the white house the administration saying theyre liars today. Yeah, and on several levels he said that they had lied about him and the fbi he was you may recall early in his testimony he was very defensive about the fbi and the president had talked about it being im being out of control and on bad times. He stated just the opposite. He noted while he wanted to keep his job the fbi will be fine in anyones hands, but he took great offense at all of that. Lester, we know there is the perspective here inside the belt way, right, and across america i assume some of our cress depends from nbc news will be taking the pulse of people interest outside the belt way. Talk to me about the difference how this plays in washington today versus across america. Were still gathering on that right now. Of course washington was riveted today, but i think a lot of the country, this is what people were talkinghc;d about, this hg was on par with the Clarence Thomas hearings, the watergate hearings, many have compared it to the benghazi hearings with secretary clinton a couple years ago, but theres high interest here and as you know there were watch parties and bars and restaurants opening early so that people could watch this and kind of share a community experience, but there was a lot doq away from this no matter where you stand on this. As we know the president s outside daughters quickly came out today and said, look, this vindicates the president , its exactly what he said, that he wasnt the subject of an investigation. So theres a lot more people who find themselves on either side of this issue of the president and russia to walk away with and say, yeah, see, i told you. When i was at the train station in philly this morning getting ready to come down to washington the guy at the coffee shop was looking at my phone, he said i wish i could watch today but i cant so let me know how he did.

With the world watching comey said the Trump Administration lied about his firing. He even challenged the president saying he hopes there are recordings of their conversations. Nbc 10 has live Team Coverage in camden where people were glued to their tv sshs during. Ynhe testimony. We begin with Jim Rosenfield in washington, d. C. Tonight. For nearly three hours fired nba director james comey told down why he felt uncomfortable during his meetings with president donald trump. Here is some of the key take a ways from todays testimony. Comey says the administration chose to defame him with lies. He says he hopes there are recordings of his conversations with the president and would consent to their release. Comey says he took notes of their meetings because he feared President Trump would lie. Comey also says that he wasnt fired because he had lost the confidence of the fbi as the president claims. By saying that the organization was in disarray, that it was poorly led, that the workforce had lost confidence in its leader, those were lies plain and simple. Its my judgment that i was fired because of the russia investigation. President trump said nothing about comey today, letting his attorney, his personal attorney, respond instead. The president never in form or substance directed or suggested that mr. Comey stopf investigating anyone including the president never suggested that mr. Comey, quote, letl n go. And when asked at the white house by reporters about todays hearing mr. Trump said only thank you. Now, the comey hearing is the big buzz in washington of course from fbi sandwiches to covfefe coffee. Cydney long is live in camden tonight where there were comey themed watch parties. You spoke with people captivated by this testimony but not necessarily cheering it on. Reporter jim, thats right. Its a tough call. They were definitely anxious and excited, if you will, to hear what would be said during the testimony. So todays testimony definitely captivated voters on both sides of the bridge. We asked them if they took sides, if you will. Trump or comey or if they listened and watched openly. Im just happy that this is happening right now. Reporter James Campbell of philadelphia took time ahead of work to listen to the heart of the russia matter on the big screen. We need to know like we elected people, you know, were voters, you know, like we need to know what the hell is going on. Reporter while some establishments between here and d. C. Boasted white russia drink specials to capitalize on the coverage they had their own discussion and debate deciding the seriousness of the content goes to our nations security. They chose not to call it a watch party. We are not washington, you know, washington is all about politics, its all about drama, all about a party theme. Reporter but lunch crowds in philly in south jersey were listening for honesty and integrity indb[an comeys answe every time hes getting asked consistent answer back. Rb did they choose sides as in trump versus comey. 9side. Im learning as im listening. Looking at itn. Rz from an op mind extremely important. We are talking about a Foreign Government using technical intrusion, lots of other 9p methods tried to shapee way we think,ylf vote, we act. I want to know if there was any incriminating evidence against the president. I mean, its the first time this has ever happened in my lifetime. Reporter the bottom line i dont think we want any country kind of intruding or knowing anything about our intelligence. We are all americans and to think that russia is interfering in our elections or to think that russia has the amount of influence that it has in our elections should trouble any american. Reporter so unlike a super bowl of politics[;gn and one t against the other, for people listening and watching they say this is a chapter that continues to unfold. So they dont want to cheer for one side or the other, they want to think of the testimony that happened today as all of us as americans coming together so they are praying of course for unity and not more divide.
