And right now he is in a listening phase. He wants to hear from everybody. The white house dealing with the fallout over the latest guilty plea by a former Trump Campaign aide, rick gates. Heres how house intel Ranking Member adam schiff say it is sending a message to Paul Manafort. The worst thing for rick gates would be to agree to cooperate and then be found to be less than forth coming. These very detailed charges involving manafort and gates i think also tell manafort just how much special counsel knows, just how much liability he faces. Now, these charges came at the end of what has already been an unprecedented week in the russia investigation. Robert mueller has brought dozens of felony charges against more than a dozen charges this week alone. Three former members of the Trump Campaign have pleaded guilty. The charges against Paul Manafort came just hours after former Business Partner rick gates pleaded guilty to conspiracy and lying to investigators. Gates has an agreement wi

And understanding how trump operates by way of his latest depraved attack on a deceased congressman. When all in starts right now. I dont want anything for it. I dont need anything for anything. Good evening, from new york. Im chris hayes. President donald trump has yet another mark on him that he can never, ever, ever undo. The house of representatives decided to use one of the most extraordinary constitutional remedies at their disposal, impeachment.
