But its caused him to make a tactical error, which is to come out and essentially throw his son and his soninlaw under the bus and say, yes, they were there to get dirt on hillary clinton. Okay. Joining jared and his son under the bus was jay sekulow, one of his last remaining tv lawyers other than Rudy Giuliani who may just have the tv part of that job. Lets look at his statements now rendered as someone who has been on both sides of the question about what the president knew about the Trump Tower Meeting. When you look at a meeting when you look at a meeting, george, that took place a year before, now two years ago, the question is what law, statute, rule or regulation has been violated.

Laura Ingraham shines a spotlight on everyday Americans and examines how their lives are affected by politics at the federal, state and local level. The outcome of the midterms.
