national money if you have a hook from low dollar donors. that s really what digital fund raising does for you. we don t know what s happening in the mid-terms. but the signs are there of tremendous democratic energy. you see it in the turn out in the special elections. you see it in the number of candidates running. and now you see it in grass roots fund raising across the board. i don t know there is a democratic wave. but all the early conditions that would accompany a democratic wave, intense city turnout, interest from younger voters, it s all there. this is another thing you put in the pile of evidence that a lot of democratic pressure is building. if you look at the president s polling numbers he has the worst numbers 18 months in of any president in the history of polling. that s some mean accomplishment there. there has to be a democratic reaction to it. the question is will we be in the same situation in the mid-terms in november.
able to sustain a family. and that is just not the case. they shouldn t be living paycheck to paycheck. representative ellison, the president s message to african-americans on the campaign trail, you live in poverty. yeah, what do we have to lose? what do you have to lose? he calls mexicans rapes, incendiary comments about muslims. president trump has the biggest microphone in the world. how do you fight that message? every day we put our time in, we organize all across this country. black lives matter, the parkland students. we have the daca students, young people standing up for immigration justice. we add all of our collective voices together. because as much as we honor martin luther king, and we should, and we do, martin luther king stands for the movement. he stands for all of the people who were pushed down by segregation, all the folks who worked hard every day. the woman who said, my feets is tired but my soul is rest, because she was protesting the montgomery bus boyc
san bruno shooting. i want to thank the first responders and praying for the victims there. absolutely. tour question, don, the president would serve the country by sitting down and coming clean with bob mueller. and innocent people cooperate. guilty people screw around try and cover up, bury the evidence. and he should actually just follow his own advice, which was when he said back in september of 2016, only the mob takes the fifth amendment. prove to america, mr. president that you are not running the white house like a mobster. and cooperate with bob mueller and so we can move on and make sure the president acted accordingly in what he did with james comey, what he tried to do with bob mueller and the pressure he puts every day on his attorney general. representative, we are learning late today that the deputy a.g. picked prosecutor ed o callahan to oversee the russia investigation at the justice department. does his appointment indicate anything about the scope of the invest
bank records, communications records and go back at witnesses, as you just mentioned are so willing to lie through their teeth to protect the president president. that s the way to the truth. that s not what we did on the house intelligence investigation we took people at their word and the american people have an incomplete and inaccurate version of the what happened. i hope the mueller team will follow all the evidence. we are seeing the first documents that which acknowledge that mueller was looking into ails that is former trump campaign manager manafort committed a crime by colluding with the russian government officials in the 2016 election. what other insights into the investigation do they show? do you think does this show? it shois, don, there was a willingness and eagerness on the trump campaign part to receive and work with to receive information from and work with the russians. don, again, whether it s collusion or not, that s bob muleary job. but i tell you the evide
attorney general jeff sessions to resign. what does that tell you? is that obstruction? are they going foorz obstruction ever justice. the two questions you asked back-to-back go hand in glove. corrupt intent is what they would need to establish in order to bring a case unthe obstruction of justice or even the abuse of office provisions for high crimes and misdemeanors. they are looking at the various pieces of the puzzle of acts that the president committed to determine whether when he undertook those dsh whether he did so with krubt intent, meaning he could be carb if a president of the united states is able to be indicted he can be indicted or if the congress so were inclined to bring articles of impeachment. so those things fit together. you have to act with corrupt intent to be charged with vouks of justice or probably high crimes and misdemeanors. thank you, gentlemen. appreciate it. good to see you don. you as well let s bring in
