Covered the coverup trial. I understand people were convicted. But you need to understand that lawyers, lawyers donts play fair. They argue two things. They can argue, look, the person didnt do the crime. The person wasnt guilty.

Official says mccabe didnt discuss specific aspects of the case but wouldnt say exactly what mccabe told priebus. The white house officials said priebus reached out to mccabe and james comey asking the fbi to talk to reporters on background to dispute the stories. Again, the fbi refused that request. To underline that, pamela, this is certainly not a typical back and forth between any white house and the fbi. Right. For a reason. There are decadeold restrictions on such contacts between the white house and the fbi limiting those discussions only to when it is important for the president s duties and where appropriate from a Law Enforcement perspective.
