It is a hell of a place in washington. guy needs a new stump speech. democrats effectively check mating republicans in congress by saying, we will only move toward impeachment if there s evidence of criminal conduct and practically daring the gop to say they d let crimes committed by the president slide. and speaking of crimes, potentially committed by the president, we know that one of the flashpoints in the obstructions of justice investigation into donald trump is his use of attempted use of pardons. former cia director john brennan says he has no doubt trump plans to pardon paul manafort who will be sentenced in a d.c. court tomorrow. personally, i don t have any doubt that mr. trump is going to pard pardon paul manafort at some point. the question is when. that s a significant statement. yeah. that you have no doubt that he s going to pardon him. i think it s you know, whether or not it s when he s leaving office, whatever, this is a person he s spoken highly of, he
About it. when you own a media company, you do have the luxury of taking care of what s put out, what is published. and if you re a friend of his and there s something in there that might embarrass you, he s going to make sure they buy it and kill it. what they do when they buy it, it takes it off the market so no other publication can get access to that story. so it s really taking it and see you later. but something mutually beneficial had to be part of their relationship. so trump gets something because he s friends with someone who owns a media company, right? mm-hmm. what does david pecker get out of it? favors, number one. you get access. once again, any media guy needs access to power players. so one hand washes the other. this type between cohen and trump, i played it a moment ago, but i want to play it for because i want it know what you think about it. let s play that. sure. i need to open up a company for the transfer of all of that info regarding our friend da
You later. but something mutually beneficial had to be part of their relationship. so trump gets something because he s friends with someone who owns a media p can, right? mm-hmm. what does david pecker get out of it? favors, number one. you get access. once again, any media guy needs access to power players. so one hand washes the other. this type between cohen and trump, i played it a moment ago, but i want to play it for because i want it know what you think about it. let s play that. sure. i need to open up a company for the transfer of all of that info regarding our friend david, you know, so that i m going to do that right away. i ve actually give it to me. and i ve spoken to allen weisselberg about how to set the whole thing up with so what are we going to yes. it s all the stuff. all the stuff because, you know, you never know where he s going to be. maybe he gets hit by a truck.
Condescending argument. i hear it from conservative who is say we really like the policies, he s really cutting regulations, we re a country of over 300 million people we could find someone else who can cut regulations with the same dexterity, i do believe. they continue on the path of defending what s completely indefensible if you do want to uphold some standard of dignity and anti-corruption in the u.s. government. one of the many layers of embarrassment. for this administration. tom price was excused for far less than what scott pruitt is now been documented to have done. i have a feeling this is still the least of their problems, which sin credible. how are you a fiscal conservative if you re defending this guy living it up like he is president, essentially, i worked for a secretary of state who didn t need the bullet proof awe koutmentes that this guy needs. you have a problem with the bullet proof seat covers?
Meeting? like, if it worked? if it worked, and what else were they saying. we have some e-mails between papadopoulos, but there were other discussions going on, and we may find out more about that because we think that papadopoulos might have been wearing a wire. yeah, and often, also, i will kick this to you, but just to take care of the low fruit here, there s no crime of collusion. it would be a criminal aspect of a conspiracy charge and we saw that with manafort and gates and not on the subject of the russian interference but on their own money laundering activities. the question is why was papadopoulos valuable enough for them to cut him this kind of deal, a trump defender is on this morning dismissing him as a coffee boy and saying that all you could learn from working with him is what he negotiates with his barista, which is a coffee maker, although what the guy needs is a lawyer, because he has had to cop a plea.
