Whats happening, he knows what roger knows about him, how much negotiation is there going to go on right now with sentencing coming, the type of prison, whether its allenwood, lewisberg, something much less pleasant, where they dont have a tennis court, where theres white collar criminals or sleaze balls, how much negotiation is the president capable of right now . In terms of where roger stone is sentenced, if hes sentenced to prison, thats not up to anyone other than the bureau of prisons. Didnt barr get involved with Manafo Manafort . The bureau of prisons does report to the attorney general. But in almost every case ive heard of, its a designation based on risk and how much time
is to be served. A second point, i also think roger stone has rendered himself absolutely useless. He has lied almost every time hes opened his mouth. It would be very hard for prosecutors to turn to him now to get Additional Information that they could use against others. Roger stone is useless. Hes a conv
between president trump and ambassador gordon sondland. emails and messages between sondland and senior white house officials including mulvaney and bolton. the administration has also refused to turn over memos relating to vice president pence. back now with the team. should that be taken into account, i mean, the fact that the white house is not turning over documents? i think there are two places it might come up. one is a potential impeachment charge of obstruction. there, you know, what jonathan turley said is, wait a minute. presidents back since washington have asserted privileges and immunities. that s what trump is doing. you don t impeach a president for doing that. the democrats could go to court. they haven t. the second place that might come up is that adam schiff threatened that noncompliance with these subpoenas could be considered an adverse inference, which means if you don t turn the stuff over, we re going to assume it s bad for you and find facts against you. i th

professor jonathan turley criticized congress for what he called, quote, a facially incomplete and inadequate record in order to impeach a president. there s a reason the record is incomplete. as we said before, the president wanted it that way. mick mulvaney and don mcgahn refused to testify. john bolton is not talking either, nor is rudy giuliani. then there are the documents. the white house has so far refused to turn over any including briefing materials for the july 25th trump/zelensky phone call as well as staff notes relating to it though they did release a summary of the call. the august 15th presidential decision memo prepared by lieutenant colonel alexander vindman conveying that aid be released. national security staff council summaries. white house review of the aid freeze revealing according to the washington post efforts to craft an after the fact justification for it. also withheld, call records
president trump commit the impeachable high crime and misdemeanor of abuse of power? we three are unanimous, yes. reporter: the hearing before the house judiciary committee on the legal foundation for impeachment kicks off the next phase of the investigation into president trump, which largely focuses on trump s push for ukraine to investigate his political rival, joe biden, and the 2016 election in exchange for a white house meeting and military aid. while republicans took shots at the democrats witnesses unless you re really good on tv and watching the hearings the last couple weeks you couldn t have possibly digested the report in any real way. mr. collins, i would like to say to you, sir, that i read transcripts of every one of the witnesses, so i m insulted by the suggestion that as a law professor, i don t care about those facts. reporter: democrats sounded the alarm ahead of the 2020 election. if we do not act to hold him in check now, president trump
