investigation. do you think he is in his purview or should he be off that committee permanently? well, it raises major questions. he had the power to issue a subpoena. it should never have been done without working with the democrats. it should have been nonpartisan or bipartisan. it just spells out another reason why any congressional committee is going to have challenges if they cannot work both democrats and republicans together. and quite frankly, within the political environment of washington, we need an independent commission taking a look at the facts between russia and the united states. senator, thank you very much. i appreciate talking to you tonight. thank you. and outfront next, cnn cameras today caught the russian banker whose meeting with jared kushner under scrutiny by the fbi tonight. we re going to show you exactly what happened when we tracked him down. plus, what is hillary clinton calling a, quote, nothing burger tonight? and sean spicer s explanation fo
dumb idea because if democrats did the same thing a number of years ago, everybody should learn that. when it s not bipartisan it s a problem. anyway i m taking the last word on it. thank you, congresswoman, for joining us. thank you. senator rand paul wants susan rice to testify under oath. is she open to it? her response is next. also ivanka trump taking on critics in her role in the white house. we ll tell you what she is saying tonight. and who is senator john mccain calling a, quote, stupid idiot today? tools, right at your fingertips, you have access to in-depth analysis, level 2 data, and a team of experienced traders ready to help you if you need it. it s like having the power of a trading floor, wherever you are. it s your trade. e trade. start trading today at etrade.com
scheduled on this. the house intelligence committee, keep in mind, led by republicans, warning the trumpstration, we need to have evidence by next monday or we re going to ask about this at this hearing. and if we don t have it, we may have to revort to what they re calling a, quote, compulsory measure or compulsory process in order to extract that evidence from the trump administration. but wolf, as you know from the last nine or ten days that we have been going over this, the white house has not provided one shred of evidence to back up the president s claim at this point. that s why you heard the white house press secretary sean spicer saying yesterday, well, when the president was talking about wiretapping in quotes, he was really talking about broader surveillance measures. and you had kellyanne conway over the weekend speculating about the various things the intelligence community can do to spy on people through their cell phones or appliances or whatever. the question, i think,
relationship. no more focus on human rights, on democracy promotion, let s not kick up a fuss about the invasion of southern european territory or what many are calling a near genocideal campaign in aleppo. this is a man who as you mentioned in the earlier segment was awarded the order of friendship. he was personally awarded it by vladimir putin. another person awarded that particular award was the president who liked to torture his citizens. is going to try to detain or deter russian revengism in europe. i have gone to europe over the past few years and repeated instances and talked to european officials that were worried about this thing, that american would adopt a more transactional relationship with the russian federation than even it had under obama. they would also fault obama with
barack obama? he came in absolutely certain he wanted to unwind these disastrous wars. they gave him the nobel peace prize before he even done anything and he has used drones far more than george w. bush had. and that s why you look at the people who surround the president and that s why you ll see general mattis, by every indicator, playing a huge role in this administration. it s very clear that mad dog mattis has gained the trust of the president-elect and i suspect he ll have a very large voice along with the president. you have the mattis people, flynn, who s quite controversial, and that third leg of this stool that is going to be around the president, to really help shape this, is so critical. and it just seems from the long litz that he doesn t there s not a preferred course at the moment. we re going to be hearing more from donald trump, obviously, in the days ahead, as this, you know, what they re calling a thank you tour.
