ask questions hard questions about strzok and page. who gave conflicting testimony right now? who fired peter strzok? andrew mccabe said he did. bob mueller s office said he did. one of them did and one of them did not, so somebody is not telling the truth. we will find that out.s that s number one. you put that in the context of everything, it will be an interesting hearing. i don t think the conclusion is going to change anything of what happens here, but people willil hear from bob mueller. i don t think we will get anything different than theng statement he made a couple weeks back, but he s going to answer some real questions, ones that have gone unanswered so far. sean: jay, i watched that nine and a half minute press conference, and god bless our media mob, conspiracy theorists, liars, hoaxsters, because for a few hours they thought they had it all. wait a minute, mueller said thed reason he couldn t consider indictment because of doj policy, and constitutional issues.
lots of people do things wrong and don t get caught and charged for it, in the world of criminal tax evasion, not civil tax mistakes, but tax evasion, we know we catch a small percentage of people that cheat on their taxes. so you can cheat on your taxes and go to jail or cheat on your taxes and skate by. or speeding on a freeway, even if if it s shutdown to the public. so i think the analogy works. what bob mueller found was a set of w facts for anyone else on t planet constitute an obstruction of justice. the fact that he couldn t charge the president with it because of doj policy, doesn t mean the president didn t do it. i think your analogy is spot on. joyce vance, let me ask you to jump in on what is not, not a good faith campaign on the part ofar rudy giuliani or sean hanny for the public or congress to
made available on the doj website was the explanation on obstruction is really confusing, from doj officials i don t understand it, doesn t make any sense, he basically punted. robert mueller did nothing of the sort. he did not punt. he found he could not say at the end of 22 months that trump had not committed crimes but he was hemmed in, restrained, boxed in, whatever word you want to use by doj policy that said you couldn t indict a sitting president. that s pretty clear. it s pretty thinly sliced and nuanced here. mueller starts by saying at least from my point of view analytically the first step is, if i could have told you the president didn t commit a crime, i would, and i m not telling you that. that s the starting point. then he says, doj policy, which is the law and that s where prosecutors like to start, understanding the law that they re looking at, says we really can t make a decision one way or the other here about whether the president committed a crime. we can inves
the american public about what s going on. let s hear what bob mueller has told us. i would sunlight thggest he is s that now congress is going to have to do its job. reporter: what she is just said is this process has worked. it s been interesting to hear her on stages around the can country contend this democratic process is working. there s a system of checks and balances. she says that ultimately a special counsel came to be. over the course of two years with some of the top lawyers in this country came together and put together a report. kamala harris says what bob mueller and his fellow prosecutors put together was a report that laid out essentially a case for prosecuting the president of the united states on the case of obstruction of justice but because of doj policy, old doj policy, the special counsel was not able to
declassifying everything that s there? let s look back at the 12 times of sitting gru russian intelligence officers by name, and let s use that as a model. you can only imagine the top-secret level intelitech niques that had to go into identifying each of those intelligence officers that mueller found was hacking into the dnc by name, their key strokes, time of day, the building they were sitting in. you re talking about top-secret compartment and techniques for that katy. if they can release that in the form of an indictment, masking the actual techniques, of course, then they can release just about almost anything. ken, what are we looking at seeing? because i feel like we ve already gotten a new idea of what we re going to get from bill barr. when he was in his confirmation hearing, he said that he would basically abide by the letter of doj policy, the statute, and only release a summary of what mueller s findings are. now we re hearing that he s sitting down with rod
