basis. they have nothing to do with that kind of concern. you can t just do a blanket denial. he could have made this plan weeks ago, but he just walked out. so we re a little skeptical that he is on the level. that he is part of the latest, but we think it is important to give him another chance to come in and do the right thing. we also have the opportunity if he is taking the fit to provide immunity from prosecution. and compel his testimony. so we ll see what happens on saturday. clark s alleged role in all of this is laid out pretty well on this. i urge all viewers that care about this storyline to red that
involve official duties or advice or it s, you know, subject to the crime fraud exception, that could be bad news. but it does for right now, i think, make sense for mark meadows to do this if he wants to avoid any kind of criminal liability. asha, the language here, it sound a little tentative that this is the initial cooperation now for an initial interview. am i over thinking this that this is not the full engagement that the committee wanted or is this potentially right on target? i think it remains to be seen. i mean, you know, i think the movement towards some kind of compromise is a good sign. again, you know, we don t want this to be held up in litigation. it s not good for the committee to end up sitting in court trying to litigate a blanket denial or even sending this to a criminal referral. but i suspect that, you know, they will get some resistance on a lot of lines of questioning.
this stuff is scary. i would like to note dan quayle is an unlikely savior of the republic, it would appear. can t spell potato but he can spell democracy. clearly. that conversation with mike pence, a fellow indiana republican, was seen as influential in making pence say he could not do anything about the certification of joe biden s victory on january 6. in the last few minutes, joy, the former president released a statement denying basically all charges in this book, the excerpts we have seen. the book is not out for another week. saying he never had any intention to have any attack with china. he criticized milley. he said he denied elements of the conversation with mike pence. a blanket denial and accused the book of being fiction. we should note the two journalists involved with top notch. it s a dramatic telling of some of the final days of the trump
if i was defending governor cuomo, that speech was terrible. it saying that you are a boomer in your 60s, saying that you are italian and a little handy with everyone will not save you. what came out of his mouth was so detrimental. what i would ve said if i were defending governor cuomo as to say, stop. there is a due process and you can leave it at that if you want to do a blanket denial, so be it, but making all of these pronouncements. we are a hardworking office, we work a lot of hours, it s not like these other places around the country, what are you talking about? there are lots of institutions that work very hard in companies that work very hard. there are lots of environments that you work day and night and sexual harassment has not permeated in a toxic work environment not created. so all of this blather was really detrimental. i don t know what the audience it was that he was trying to make the pronouncements too but he really did not help himself. john: when you look at t
would you have advised him to say that because he could face a lot of different jeopardy here. no. he should not have said that. he called to mind that iconic video, must have brought to mind for you, chuck, almost wanted him to hold his fingers like bill clinton did. wag his finger. i did not have sexual exactly. he had a special way hooking his finger over the thumb. i almost expected that. if history taught us anything, do not make those kinds of blanket denials. they can come back to hurt you, especially in light of not 20, 30, 40 minutes ago, someone was at a podium saying he made some admissions, other things he denied, but pretty much seems he may have admitted to some of the conduct. that may come back to bite him. he says his attorneys conducted their own investigation and that may be true, but going out and saying that blanket denial, then following it up with i m 63 years old.
