it s called oppo research. what s your response to that. that s pure non-sense. in fact this point came up in the committee today when one much our members pointed out that not a single member of the house of representatives goes either soliciting foreign assistance in their campaign or i think if it were offered to them would go and not report it. i sure as heck hope that all my colleagues would do that. the president is completely out of line. but this is typical for donald trump which is he projects on others his own lack of morality. if he wouldn t call the fbi he assumes no one would. if he is deceptive about something. he assumes everyone is. if he is willing to do the unpatriotic thing and g to a foehner power for help he assumes everyone will. but that s not the case pan god help us if it ever becomes that way chairman schiff thank you thank you. and next, trump bragging
defense. in this case it did. i ve seen it go both ways. i ve seen him, you know, sort of take out his bad day on defense counsel, on prosecutors, on whoever happens to be standing in front of him at the time. so i am a little bit troubled because i think if there s too much on one side it can tilt that scale of justice, and i sure as heck hope that doesn t happen here. but i ve seen him give it to both sides. again, there s a middle path. you can call counsel to the bench if you re confused about something they re doing or angry with them for something that they re doing. it doesn t have to be within the earshot of the jury. and i guess that s it. you can t put the toothpaste back in the tube. the jury heard him berate the prosecutors, paul butler. now in the judge s defense, there is a little bit of bling bling in the case with the million dollar antique rug and $15,000 ostrich jacket. it s an ugly jacket too. a nice rug. you ve never seen nick in
figure this out? i want to say whose timeline is that? it was schumer s timeline and it s his shutdown that has done there. there were negotiations and opportunities to have talk. you ought saw that. it was schumer going over to the white house. we don t know what the honest true was, but it s month that are just schumer and the president did what schumer has done is to put our american men annilwomen in peril, as well as our children. look, i m a nurse, i want to make sure the children are taken care of. we have time to do what needs to be done. we have over a month to do that. congresswoman, very quickly, because we re running out of time, based on your conversationses there on capitol hill, do you think this gets resolved by monday? it it doesn t seem like the government will hope today. i sure the heck hope so. i care about children and i care
tweet on saturday, i sure as heck hope the president is getting better legal advice from these guys than he s getting pr advice. to me that was a horrific two days coming out of the president s legal team that did not help this situation at all. paul, as i mentioned, the president s lawyer john dowd telling axios, quote, the president cannot obstruct justice because he s the chief law enforcement officer under the constitution s article ii and has his rightly to express his view of any case. president clinton was impeached for obstruction of justice. and never claimed the constitution immunized him. but we didn t say he s above the law. nixon suggested after he was gone in that interview with david frost that perhaps presidents can t commit certain crimes. this is a flat-out statement from the president of the united states through his attorney that he s above the law. it s really remarkable since he has he s his own worst witness, our president, right? he told, after the white h
that remains to be seen. clearly big question marks surrounding whether there can be an effort to revive gun control laws. newtown families were here in washington earlier this week getting their message out to lawmakers and say they re going to continue the fight. i got to tell you, i spoke with senators manchin and toomey at the white house correspondents dinner in the wake of the failure of the passage of their bill. they vowed to continue the fight. and i sure as heck hope they do. whatever we can do to help them, we re going to do it. thank you so much. as kristin just said, the new budget deal on capitol hill, can it bring new hope back to the white house on other big issues? and the growing controversy surrounding a governor, a grudge and an ugly traffic jam on the george washington bridge. so could it all lead to the 2016 run for the white house? cer ] the new new york is open. open to innovation. open to ambition. open to bold ideas. that s why new york has a new plan do
