questions on a whole host of aspects of robert mueller and the house intelligence committee s investigation. the key question is what questions is she going to be willing to answer tomorrow because that point, that issue that you raised still has not been settled. it is not clear. we spoke to the ranking democrat on the house intelligence committee today adam schiff and he isn t certain she is going to answer questions. steve bannon refused to answer many questions citing in effect white house claim of executive privilege of giving leeway from answering questions about that. so we don t know what will happen tomorrow. will she go there, will she answer most questions or refuse. the intelligence committee is still intending to issue a contempt order for steve bannon for refusing to answer questions you can imagine they do the same to hope if she does as well. the two essential claims of the republican memo known as the nunes memo is one the fbi s
with us. what do you make of this news that the president appears to be backing away from raising the age limit to buy any gun to 21? i don t think he should be backing away from this issue. he needs to be leading on the issue. he needs to show the american people that he is not going to be beholden to anybody and lead members of congress. show the american people who they all hate about washington, d.c. thinking that people are purchased by different lobbies. that we are not. lead the american people to that conclusion. she them. the president told them that the nra is on their side. and do you think that is true. we find ourselves at odds on a number of issues. but they represent people that need to have their opinion heard as well. the law-abiding citizen that has the opportunity to hunt, they
silent about raising the age. nothing on twitter. nothing on camera. including nothing to the governors. in fact we don t know the meeting took place until after the fact. it was kept off the schedule the white house puts out. even as he goes silent on the thing he promised on wednesday to quote go strongly on, he is still pushing what seems to be his and the nra s preferred response arming teachers. not all teachers, he says, just some. i want highly trained people who have a talent. like hitting a baseball. hitting a grovel ball. or putting. how come some people always make the 4 footer and some people under pressure can t take their club back. some people can t take their club back. you can take issue with how the president put it, however he
answer most questions or refuse. the intelligence committee is still intending to issue a contempt order for steve bannon for refusing to answer questions you can imagine they do the same to hope if she does as well. the two essential claims of the republican memo known as the nunes memo is one the fbi s investigation was based othentiy on this steele dossier. on that issue, the democratic memo attempts to rebut it by noting the time line. the fbi opened its counterintelligence investigation seven weeks before the fbi team got access to that steele dossier. so it is a credible rebuttal on that point. the other key point of the
property to pass the senate. just a matter of getting through the logistical hurdles. does it have support to pass the house. the house has passed this bill but paired it with for if you have a permit to carry, in a state, you would take that over state lines to another state that allows concealed carry. democrats in the senate, that is a nonstarter. for democrats in the house, that is a nonstarter. so as long as that still has to be paired with even the small bore fix nix background bill, there are problems there. it has put a point on this. speaking to a democratic snore who is very strong on the gun rights issue very strong on trying to push forward some type of gun restrictions and i asked him plainly, do you think anything is going to happen right now. he looked at me and shook his head. he said no. he understands where things are right now and not a lot of optimism.
