know. i m sure you know i do not recall is the preferred answer by every defense attorney for their client to deliver under almost any circumstance. it s almost impossible to prove that somebody lied when they are saying i don t remember. the thing i find remarkable about the president s written response to that question and what we learned in the stone trial is that he didn t just say i don t remember ever talking to stone about wikileaks. but says i don t remember ever hearing about anyone in my campaign talking to stone about wikileaks. we heard stone had numerous conversations with many people in the campaign april of 2016. about wikileaks and dumps of e-mails coming out. so it was clearly an item that was discussed among a group of folks in the campaign. and hard to believe none of that made its way to candidate trump.
are coming forward to testify. you ve got someone like ambassador bill taylor today. i remember right after his transcript was released of what he testified to congress previously, ronna romney mcdaniel, the chair of the rnc called him a radical. mm-hmm. suddenly a george w. push appointee to the same position that donald trump appointed him to, ambassador to ukraine, is a radical. this is going to be a very tough battle for republicans to actually portray with any legitimacy. all right, and then at the same time we ve got former trump deputy campaign chairman rick gates testifying at roger stone s trial yesterday, that stone first told president trump s top aides that wikileaks had plans to release information in the middle of the presidential race in april of 2016. according to gates, the trump campaign s scramble to take advantage of the releases included at least one call with 41 past the hour, the
as early as april of 2016 actually sheds in lightpotentia mysteries that still remains, which is mainly, how did trump campaign aide george papadopoulos know in may of 2016 that these dumps were coming? remember, it was that conversation? george papadopoulos was talking to an australian dip matte inlo london wine bar that russia had dirt on hillary clinton that they were going to dump publicly. that kicked off the whole investigation that brought up up to today. australia saying, hey, there s something weird going on with russia and the trump campaign knows about it. you are so good on all this. thank you so much. good to see you today. coming up next, demonstrations on the steps of the u.s. supreme court as justices hear a kate that will decide the fate of hundreds of thousands of dreamers. we ll talk to one of them live
coordinating with ukrainians to dirty up this president. maria: we ve talked about is joseph misfid. we have this timeline, which is the george papadopoulos entrapment timeline that we ll show here and in april of 2016 he told then campaign staffer george papadopoulos that russia had hillary clinton s e-mail and now we understand that william barr have obtained blackberries tied to the launch of the russia probe and these phones were the property of joseph misfid. what are we going to find on these phones and why is it important that we look at joseph misfid? well joseph misfid should have been the guy that we should have got to the bottom of with mueller s $35 million probe, we should have known exactly what joseph misfid was up to because he s the one that supposedly first knew about the e-mails.
these cities and conferences, something wasn t adding up white frankly. maria: so, that first meeting when arminder invited you to go to rome and introduced you to joseph mifsud, let s just point out that when you first joined or were considering leaving your other job, you went and you got an out reach from somebody on linkedin to come work for the london center of international law practice, and arminder worked there and then you found out that she was actually a close associate or friend with bruce ohr who worked in the department of justice is that right? that s what our reports have subsequently explained about her it was something of course i had no idea about in march or april of 2016. maria: okay so wow, so she s working at the london center of international law practice, and she tells you she s friends with bruce ohr, of the doj.
