Question. Why isnt adam schiff saying, yeah, lets go look at it . Instead just like yesterday when he said hell go look at it. Let me finish. He was almost about to sign the invitation for comey to come testify, but suddenly, there are stipulations. There was no reason to have stipulations. Same thing today. He was invited jack, youre rewriting jack, youre rewriting history. Stipulations, what are you saying let me answer the question. I know this not because ive talked to him, but because ive read the documents and read the public reporting which you can read as well and you probably already know, which is that he was willing to sign the letter. In fact, he said today, hes willing to have comey and rogers come in behind closeddoors testimony, but he also wants a guarantee that clapper, that yates, and others are going to testify openly and that hasnt been assured. Even today, he still hasnt gotten assurances from nunes thats going to occur. And jack, let me also ask you, if you were d
the spring storm is expected november out later tonight. march madness. did you see all this, you con s record 111-game winning stream coming to an end, a 15-foot buzzer beater allowing mississippi state to overtake the huskies in over time, handing them their first defeat since november 2014. what a big deal for mississippi state. congratulations for them. wh a week in the nation s capital. the traigs entering the home stretch of the first 100 days. throughout the first 70 days, the white house subject of numerous federal and congressional investigations involving russia. with me now senior political writer for usa today heidi press ball la along with congressional reporter for the hill molly hooper. heidi, when you look at the first 70 days of the white house, you said flynn was fired, the chief of staff asking the fbi to knock down reports of russian ties, attorney general
adam schiff. sources tell nbc news he had a private ten-minute visit with president trump. after schiff viewed the same secret surveillance information first shown only to republican chairman devin nunes who according to reports was tipped off by white house officials. there were people that probably knew about this, knew about me being there. the fact of the matter is, that doesn t make them the source of my information. reporter: president trump injected himself into the fray by tweeting about his ousted national security adviser. michael flynn should ask for immunity, calling the investigation of flynn s ties to russia a witch hunt. but the president had a very different view last fall. if you re not guilty of a crime, what do you need immunity for. reporter: back then flynn agreed. when you are given immunity, that means you ve probably committed a crime. reporter: but now flynn s lawyer says he has a story to tell and is interested in pursuing an immunity deal. the que
why would they give that away this early in the game. i think it will continue. i do think the balance is going to shift to the senate now despite the fact that adam schiff is now seeing the classified information on the house side. there are so many questions about faith in devin nunes, that the balance will shift to the senate. the big question is whether any of that partisanship will affect the senate side? if it does, those calls from democrats and even some republicans may join in for a special for an independent commission, and that is kind of where we re headed. molly for the folks confused about the immunity issue, i want to ask you, for flynn and the immunity issue, is this really a cya moment because of perjury issues moving forward and testifying, or actually the bigger hook of being able to produce information that would lead to someone else.
do. let s get to the big story. it s hard to keep up with them because it s been a wild week. michael flynn saying he wants basically immunity, also reports that two white house staffers provided the house intel chair with backup information that the president and his team were surveilled, grieving agreed dense to his wiretapping tweet about president obama. how does any of this get cleaned up in the next workweek? it doesn t, not at all. this investigation, yes are months and months away from finding investigations. on the senate side they re just beginning, don t want to trade away anything. they have so many questions for this individual including why did you lie about your contact with ambassador kislyak.
