investigation. into the business dealings of mueller & comey and let s investigate the contract let s investigate the client relationship that mueller swamped and we had a conference of interest. the personal financial corruption, let s investigate, what s a phrase we been hearing the last couple of years, we need to get to the bottom of it. it mueller and comey have done nothing wrong there nothing to fear. right? and let s take the fight to the ridiculous never trump first lead by bill kristol joining the banner of republicans for the rule of law, they say the defending democracy. excuse me? there literally attacking democracy in trying to overturn the democratic election of a president they despise, they talk about decency and owner in morality.
so beyond what i have said here today and what is contained in our written work i do not believe it is appropriate for me to speak further about the investigation. a senior exactic strategist not buying that telling cnn mueller should be subpoenaed the day he leaves the doj. as you heard congressman connolly it s clear they are going to do that period, full stop. he is no longer a doj special kbp or special counsel. he is gone. today was his last day. john dean, juliette kayyem, the assistant secretary of the department of homeland security under president obama and david gergen who advised four presidents, including two who were in a situation similar to this, nixon and clinton. let me start with you, john dean. is it mueller s call to decide whether or not he testifies? he is saying i justant won t do it, not going to do it, guys. it is not his choice. it s congress s choice.
candidate like joe biden has the potential for peeling them away. can we also make the argument, too, that we re going to see a lot more action in both michigan and wisconsin, after we see that, not just pennsylvania! i think that lesson was learned certainly in 2016. president trump was asked to, on fox last night, about his criticism. at his rallies, including the one that he s gearing up for tonight, that he doesn t spend enough time focusing on the positives, focusing on the good economy, for example. here was his response if i stood there and talked about the economy for that long a period. let s say, the economy is great, floi unemployment s low you re saying it s boring? start falling asleep. i m not sure if that s because people are tired of winning or because he doesn t find it as exciting to talk about the economy, but that is one winning point for him. you can almost see him adviser be like, yeah, we know, we ve heard this before. but those rallies are to gin
pelosi than he ever votes with me. it s a question whether he s even in our republican conference as a whole. reporter: michigan republican congressman justin amash doubling down on twitter this afternoon, making a legal case for impeaching the president of his own party. amash accusing the president of obstructing the russian investigation, saying that mueller s report reveals that president trump engaged in specific actions and in a pattern of behavior that meet the threshold for impeachment. and undoubtedly any person who is not the president of the united states would be indicted based on such evidence. president trump quickly hitting back, calling amash a total lightweight and a loser, tweeting, how do you obstruct when there is no crime? republican senator mitt romney, a frequent critic of trump, telling jake tapper on state of the union sunday that he does not agree with amash. justin amash has reached a different conclusion than i have. i respect him. i think it s a cou
work. and look, it s the nuclear option. and you re starting to see certain congressional leaders, representative schiff alluded to this just a couple of days ago. nancy pelosi is holding a very powerful card here. the question is she willing to play it. and the next question is who will they eventually get to come before their committees as the white house continues to stonewall. we re still waiting to see if mueller is going to come and testify. with know the house judiciary committee is seeking that. another viewer asks if and when mueller testifies any limits are there on what questions congress can ask him. if mueller does testify, and i think he will, it won t be complete open game. i think there will be limits. we re seeing a little game of hot potato as to the big question of whether mueller testify. trump said he shouldn t and then leave it to barr and barr said i ll leave to it mueller and late last week there the white house might be objecting behind the scenes. once thi
