stewart, could you get conviyoud for that crime. is there a benefit to someone testifying in person versus teleconference from the oval office, as you mention bill clinton did? sure, it s the circumstances surrounding the questioning. think about how much more high pressure it is when it s directly face to face, maybe just a few feet across the table from that investigator, from robert mueller himself. if i m mueller i want to question donald trump. it s different, versus answering questions by writing. that has happened before with prior sitting presidents. there have only been presidents of the united states deposed under oath previously so there s not a lot of precedent for this. at the end of the day a grand jury subpoena cannot be ignored whether you re the president or joe citizen. we know it s a big week ahead for steve bannon. sources telling nbc news he will be testifying before the house intelligence committee tuesday. nbc also learned bannon hired bill burke to represe
mcgan and reince priebus. sources say bannon s testimony does not have any connection with the mueller investigation, but is there a conflict of interest here? oh no. so the house intelligence committee obviously looking into the russian investigation. there have been parallel lines of investigation that have been going on, in addition to the mueller investigation itself. so bannon, as a scorned lover per se, do you trash talk or do you keep your mouth shut and do demurery say nothing at all. my mama told me if you don t have anything nice to say you don t say anything at all but in bannon s situation who knows? he has his own self on the line. his self-preservation instinct may kick in and he may tell everything he needs to tell to protect himself befout it doesn mean he won t be questioned by robert mueller and bill burke is only representing bannon in the context of the house intelligence committee
we never saw an alert out of japan and south korea. that s usually the first wave anybody hears anything, the japanese and south reen korean it out before the pentagon. reporters had a sense, wait a minute, i don t think this is a real drill a real thing, but you re right, it took 38 minutes for the public to know it and that s just one of many, many things that officials are going to have to get right all the way down to the local level. got to work on that. kevin baron, thank you very much for the conversation. my pleasure, happy sunday. breaking bannon, he s set to testify before house intelligence committee. might this leave the president at risk? and the wolf huffed and puffed.
