shoulder massage? dana: when a story changes like it did today, you get more of the story. that s inevitable. why do you think the white house stands tonight? kimberly: there have been several different explanations for one. the president has the authority. president obama had the same authority to do so. if hillary clinton was elected president, she would have exercised the same authority and discretion and dismissed director combing. president trump is trying to get out there and explain it but what would have helped from the beginning in terms of the communication was sort of a clear delineated timeline. because now people are trying to go in and fill the gaps. no one is saying this is something the president doesn t have the authority to do. i don t hear a lot of people protesting, saying that he overstepped his bounds.
going to blow up like watergate did? the republicans in the house and senate, for reasons beyond my comprehension, have allowed us to be defined by the news media in a one-sided way. if they want to look into russian efforts to shape american politics and they want to look at both parties, that s fine. but for them to allow this to be defined as they look at the trump administration, et cetera, is crazy. if they don t go after this is simple. it is subpoena all the decision documents, subpoena all the emails, find out who was delivering what to her, when did she know it, and did she give any of it to the president of the united states? if obama was getting the stuff, this is as explosive as watergate. a speed when i m hearing director combing at the fbi is not cooperating with the investigation, at least on the house side. are you hearing that? i don t know if that is true or not. if it is, they should subpoena him. the director of the fbi is not a petty dictator of law
