has prosecutors on his team present arguments in front of the group and the group tries to shoot him down in terms of best practices. everything he does is with an eye towards a jury trial he is extremely aggressive in trying to poke holes and arguments, trying to say where are we weaken the evidence he is not looking at this as a legal question he is looking at it as a legal of question he wants to win at trial and wants to convince jurors this is where he is going to start taking his team as they gather as much evidence, narrative evidence, witness evidence as possible. drew wiseman, that sounds like the way people described you before you were abvailable t us as a commentator an analyst as you were getting ready to go to trial the manafort case, i will see descriptions just like that. i don t want to let the moment pass though where the times is able to report and we had some of this conversation earlier in the week.
documents had been returned because a search was done and lo and behold there were documents all over the place including in trump s own office. so the issue that the department s trying to get as is who told mr. cochran, the lawyer, the information that s in thexd certification? and howell ruled the way she ruled exactly the same way in the manafort case, w⌝bñ i handled, saying if a client is using a lawyer to commit a crime, there is no attorney client privilege. and mr. cochran has to testify about who told him that the documents have all been retm$[■ and she went further according to thisw3i] reporting and said notes, recordings, beçó turned over. mr. cochran was apparently in the grand jury yesterday in d.c. responding to the prosecutors questions. so what happened in the çómanaft
and rick scott notley republicans who stood up clapping for social security and medicare. we accomplished something. yes. let s go. and just in case there is still any doubt about how much and how hard president biden is going to press this point, he showed up in wisconsin today. senator johnson s backyard. with a copy of senator scott s 66 page pamphlet and print out of senator johnson s statements about sunsetting government benefits. well, okay now president biden. does not stop. there tomorrow biden heads to florida, which is senator scott s backyard. now to be clear, both of these trips were announced before the state of the union. but it all feels almost like a strategy. and the burden is now on republicans. they can admit they support their own wildly unpopular policies, or they can abandon them, which is really kind of an a+ political maneuver from the democrat in this picture. it s not all about spectacularly trolling republicans ahead of any
absolutely. you do not know from the public record when that relationship started. and if you are oleg deripaska or any oligarch, the idea that you have access and could get information from a high-level fbi agent, that s manner from heaven. and this is sort of spy versus spy. this is what they re going to want. so that issue of when was that relationship? when did it start? and particularly, what was said, that is key. and just to the point, by the way, on the manafort, the polling data, just because you always try your last case, after our investigation was over and biden became president, the dni, the head of the intelligence committee reported that they actually were able to confirm that the polling data went to russia. i mean, we knew that had to be the case, but didn t have the evidence. we couldn t say it. but of course would have been killed if he hadn t passed it on. and the person he was supposed
is the perfect time to be on the show. but i trouble mean it tonight. first of all, espionage. they re releasing him on a 500,000 dollar bond with suggest the espionage may not be in the next hearing. how do you read the situation? if i were at the fbi, they have to be worried about, is this a counter intelligence case and needing to get to the bottom of. what they need to be scouring every single thing that he touched with the fbi to figure out what s going on. it s important to note, he didn t just leave the fbi and work for deripaska which, as you said, the judgment call there and how you would go from sort of team america to team russia that quickly. the reason he is charged with a criminal case is that that alone is not enough. it s that he disguised his work in a way that it would not be clear that he was violating u.s. sanctions. so there were all sorts of ways that they have, fake companies, they sort of use the money in
