Discussed in beijing. You said in the case of the president s tweets that this on going investigation, more things will come out when theyve made that. The collusion charges. All the people in the investigation there. Why in one case is that sufficient to say there is no collusion now, versus the others need more information coming out . Because, again, i think theres a difference. Im not ruling anything out. Im merely explaining that every person, republican, democrat, obama, the Obama Administration across the broad section. In terms of what . On the investigation itself, we know from the people who have been briefed on the other piece of it, we know its an on going thing. Even according to the department of justice in terms of the information thats been provided and chairman nunes, that they are still at the beginning of this process. That is a very different thing than a group of people saying theres an on going investigation and from what weve been briefed, there is no evidence to
That request did not come to us. It went to the department of justic justice. Saying we cart restart civilization with somebody elses action. I will touch base with the president on that. Halle . I just want to go back to you just said a minute ago, what the president meant when he tweeted about the wire tapping. You all stood there and said the tweet speaks for itself. When do you decide when a president s tweet, when his words are open to interpretation and when though words stand on their own . Im sorry. Can you further explain . His tweets do speak for themselves. You interpret et it for peter. You said when he said wire tapping he meant he had it in quotes. Did you ask him . I did. What did he say . He said they were in quotes. It was referring to surveillance. He cited other reports in his conversation . He did. Thats what the tweet was based on . Good try. I have already been clear on that. I want to go back to the health care. Yes or no. Are cbo numbers legitimate or not . That
President obama warned President Trump ab flynn. Tell us more. Reporter well, he warned him. We did get that confirmed today. But i think its fair to give context to that warning. Keep in mind flynn had already been fired by president obama. Flynn had been openly critical of the Obama Administration. So when you look at it through the context of what was happening at the time, by the way, he had already been reupped as someone who had the highest level of clearance, reupped by the Obama Administration. When you take all that together, you might understand why the president was just a little skeptical perhaps of the admonition of the outgoing president. The president never disclosed details of meetings he had. Its true the president , president obama, made it known he wasnt exactly a fan of general flynns which shouldnt come as a surprise to anyone. Given general flynn had worked for president obama, was an outspoken critic of president obamas short comings. The question you have to ask
Speak or conceal. I dont think many reasonable people would do i differently than i did no matter what they say today. Sandra Katherine Herridge is live outside the hearing. What did we hear in general about the decision to reopen the clinton email probe 11 days before the election . He was asked multiple times about that. Reporter the fbi director james comey testified that clintons aide routinely sent emails to her husband, Anthony Weiner to get them printed out. In the process when the fbi got inside Anthony Weiners computer you know what its like after these hearings. Everyone is clearing out. Anyway, when the fbi got inside Anthony Weiners computer as part of a separate investigation, they found thousands of clinton email, many were new to investigators and classified. This one in late october, less than two weeks before the election. The fbi director testified to senators today that he felt he only had two options and that was to either go public or to conceal this evidence. I sa
On his staff day in, day out. Thats not changing. Two question friday again. First congratulations on your first on air camera appearance. Thanks. Well see how it goes. Lets hold the champagne for a little while. I know you you said the president is neutral over the president of france. President obama talked about winners and losers in israel, egypt in its first election and japan. Will the president do the same with the two candidates in france . I would imagine that would be the case. Hes made a practice of reaching out to foreign leaders all over the globe. I would imagine he will do that once this election concludes. I would imagine that takes plac place. Going back to the president s executive order on the john sign mendment, nearly 20 years ago, congressman walter jones of North Carolina introduced the first legislation to repeal the Johnson Amendment and said at the time that it would take an act of congress. While the president s executive order tells the irs agents not to enf
