A recap of the days news. The idea that somehow this is floating out in the ether somewhere in orbit far away from the central focus of this investigation is just not true. Those lines of investigation are open. And this is a man who has shown himself willing to do some fairly dodgy work for people supported by the kremlin abroad in the ukraine. And thats one reason why hes standing in court today. And this is just the beginning and again, one of two trials. The first of two trials for Paul Manafort this summer. So this is and the first one as far as the russia investigation. Listen, theres they have to go a long way, as you said. Theres a long way to go, and april, the judges name is ts ellis. He banned any mention of President Trump, russia or collusion from the courtroom. I mean, that may be, but the trial is no doubt weighing on this white house. It is definitely weighing on this white house, don. From my sources, theyre saying
the white house is very concerned. They are trying to
murder and attempted murder. conspiracy the crime is the agreement. cn sn reportin is reporting cohen is prepared to say president trump approved to the meeting with the russians. trump did not attend the meeting himself. does that make a difference to prosecutors? to prosecutors? i mean, having him there helps a little, but if he approves of it, remember, the crime we re talking about is conspiracy. so duoes he agree to the unlawfl objective that is getting dirt on hillary? if he does, doesn t matter if he s at the meeting or not at the meeting, he still is liable. not clear rudy giuliani knows that, and he s out there saying all kind of stuff, but if he approved it, he s in trouble. how far will he go to protect his family, the president. oh, i think he ll issue pardons but there s only so much he can do up to that point. if these people get prosecuted, they re going to go to court. thank you michael and harry.
