but throwing sand into the gears of this process is that i m told a number of witnesses have given house investigators a range of new leads. not just about other people to talk to but other documents to request. there has been a delay in the impeachment inquiry out of respect for lelijah cummings fo the memorial services honoring him today and tomorrow. there had been delays before that because some of the witnesses they wanted to talk to didn t have lawyers. i mean, it s careerttorneys on r because they think there might be an impeachment process that might happen. so all of that has taken time. and by the way, they haven t seen brought in the big guns. so if they want to bring in john bolton to depose him, that takes time. that said, though, i have talked to democrats on the respective committees who say that they do believe that public hearings will start very soon. they hope to get this thing wrapped up by mid-november. around thanksgiving, which would then have the senate trial ha
into the night in his files. work is happening be there regardless of what kind of circus we re all talking about here. eventually we get to see the outcome of that work. the law doesn t really care whether or not we believe donald trump did any of these things. that s true. people think o.j. s innocent to this day. still? i mean, who they? use that as an example. there are people that believe that, right? the law is going to do mueller s going to do his work and the outcome is going to be the law being applied to the facts, period. the difference is o.j. didn t have lawyers who were writing memos to say that the federal law to the justice department doesn t apply to him. that s what s scariest, he s trying to redefine the law. the leaks, trump is he s the main leaker. we all know that he s on the phone. he wants it is the total reality. i m on the outs, i m on the ins. we saw that on the show time documentary where he goes off the record with maggie haberma
vladimir putin would like to see hillary clinton as president. fair enough. in another interview published yesterday, this time with reuters, the president said he didn t know about his son s meetings with the russian lawyer until days ago but didn t fault don jr. for taking it, adding i think many people would have held that meeting. who are those many people? they weren t involved in the campaign, didn t have lawyers, wouldn t have paul manafort around to say this is a little suspicious. while president trumphimself wasn t on the e-mail chain, it s important to note he doesn t use e-mail, he wouldn t be on an e-mail chain and took another swipe on the allegations of collusion saying there was zero coordination, it s the dumbest thing i ve ever heard. i want to point out lindsey graham on sunday said the president s idea of coordinating with russia on cyber security isn t the dumbest thing he s ever heard, maybe the second dumbest. there s a lot of dumb things from government
you know, one of the things that i found very striking in the film were the number of families, and it sounds like additional children, who had no idea of their rights and didn t have lawyers. we have a little sound i want to play and talk about that a little bit. sure. a woman slid a paper, a form, but it was blank. she said, do you have an attorney? i said, no. she said, sign here. okay. so i sign here. we were briskly brought into the courtroom. the judge leaned across the table and yelled, what makes you think you can do this kind of crap? i had my hand on hillary s shoulder, so i could feel her backing up. i just whispered in her ear, it s okay. things went very quick in the courtroom. about 60 seconds. while i was being handcuffed, i could hear my mother wailing right next to me. the woman who was cuffing me goes, look what you did to your mother. i was just, like i was
drug crimes. let me turn to charlie wrangle who s on views on drugs have evolved. you think this was the right thing for the president to do, to commute these sentences, an should he do more? i hope he does more. when i was prosecuting in the federal courts, we were going against drug cartels that were in turkey and france and when you had a good bust there, you could see the impact on the streets. now, everyone s an independent dealer and i have thought that the severe sentences would be a deterrent, but actually, it s really been a war against poor folks and people that didn t have lawyers and with mandatory sentences, it s been totally unfair. as you look back now as being one of those advocates, one of those prosecutors, one of those congressmen, you talked about pushing nixon, pushing reagan to have this war on drugs. do you look back with some kind of i don t know if regret was
