last year because i m wondering if this is relevant. here he is. if they do do ivanka, which i doubt they will, the whole country will turn on him. they re going after his daugh r daughter. jared is a fine man. you know that. but men are, you know, disposable. but a fine woman like ivanka? come on. david, just putting aside those many offensive things, what do you make of that? is that the way it is? well, i think this is strategic. one of the things that you re going to want to do here is split up the family and get them to not be with each other. and if ivanka gets in a position choosing between her husband and her father, what is she going to do? so i think this is just part of the strategy of how you approach these things, and part of that is, you know, they re not being overly tough-handed here. at the end of the day, congress can literally send the sergeant
next list. she wasn t on the first 81. everyone else in the trump family was. i want to play something rudy giuliani said about ivanka last year because i m wondering if this is is relevant. here he is. if they do do ivanka, which i doubt they will, the whole country will turn on them. they re going after his daughter. what about his son-in-law? they talked about him. i guess jared is a fine man, you know that, but men are, you know, disposable. a fine woman like ivanka? come on. david, just putting aside those many offensive things, what he said there, but what do you make of that? is that the way it is? well, i think this is strateg strategic. one of the things that you re going to want to do here is split up the family and get them to not be with each other. if ivanka gets in a position choosing between her husband and her father, what is she going to do? so i think this is just part of the strategy of how you approach these things, and part of that is, you know, they re n
justice, and abuse of power. they involve a whole range of activities of this administration that we have a responsibility to conduct oversight for. that s one of the duties of the constitution that requires us to engage in. the republicans have refused to do it for the last to yewo year. we have a 500-page document with all the times we attempt to persuade them to conduct oversight. they never did it. i understand this may feel new. this is the responsibility of the judiciary committee and we intend to do it and witnesses, if they testify truthfully and produce documents as requested, won t run into a perjury trap. just tell the truth. but but, you know, simply to say because the president was a subject of a special counsel investigation that the judiciary committee is precluded from investigating anything else is an absurdity. ve a number of serious allegations that have been made and have a responsibility to find the truth and reveal the facts to the american people. there is more
son-in-law, jared kushner, but his daughter, ivanka, a security clearance. your reaction. well, this is very, very disturbing. we should remember that a security clearance is required before some of the most secret information can be shared with an individual that is essential to protecting the security of the american people and of our country. so you want to be sure that before information is shared that that person has been vetted, and that they can t be compromised. that they don t have some other reason that they might be willing to share that information with someone they shouldn t. so this is important to protecting our country. the president has a right to order someone to get a security clearance, but you have to wonder when the cia, the fbi, and the intelligence community raised objections, the president overruled those objections and then lied about it. that s of great concern. so when we re our understanding at cnn here is that the concerns about ivanka trump s securi
kushner. take a listen. if they do do ivanka, which i doubt they will, the whole country will turn on him. they re going after his daughter. what about her son-in-law. they talked about him. jared is a fine man. you know that. but men are, you know, disposable. but a fine woman like ivanka, come on. i m sure you remember that. i mean, there s a lot of scrutiny around both jared and ivanka here. is jared disposable and ivanka somehow exempt? i don t want to get into talking about who it is disposable and who is not based on their gender. the argument is not about whether or not it would be fair for the prosecutors to go after ivan can trump but whether or not the optics would be good for them. i think that kind of tells you all that you need to know about the strength of their argument against investigators looking into the children. and i want to just remind you, the new york times reported just a couple days ago that investigates had renewed their request for documents fro
