based on what s in the e-mails that we re seeing for the first time today that goldstone says this is information that is highly sensitive. don trump jr. says, great, that s what we re looking for. it s crystal clear on the page, it s pretty hard to say fake news about a story, when you re putting out e-mails corroborating that story yourself. that s right. peter alexander at the white house waiting for that offcamera briefing, and michael schmidt of the new york times, thank you very much. here with me now, the man who discovered deep throat. i want to wipe away this hot rhetoric we re hearing from capitol hill and social media. on june 3rd, goldstone writes
jim mcgovern thank you very much. we re going to go right now to that offcamera briefing, sarah huckabee sanders has just finished up, here it is from the beginning.jr., that meeting, have you had a chance to get a sense of what he feels about this entire story as it continues to unfold? what s your sense on that? i have a quick statement that i will read from the president. my son is a high quality person and i applaud his transparency. beyond that, i m going to have to refer everything on this matter to don jr. s counsel and outside counsel and won t have anything else to add beyond that today. the end, i m sorry. if i can follow up quickly about the accident, how soon afterward did the president learn about what happened? what was the tick-tock in terms of that? did he get immediate word or did it go through a certain chain of command?
of this odd piece of paper. right. just sort of came out of left field tonight. i think your point is the right one. this is a white house that has eroded its own credibility over the first five months of in administration. and so we do have to ask tonight, when you get a vague statement about potential attacks that may be imminent, sort of where it s come from, what the white house is doing in terms of putting this out there, why now? just today at the offcamera briefing press secretary sean spicer told us in response to a question about diplomacy that this is not a president who likes to show his cards. this is a president who works quietly behind the scenes. he said that with a straight face. that this president works quietly. but he said he is not telegraphing any moves.
welcome back to the 11th hour. just the point jeremy was making. speaker paul ryan this morning speaking during james comey s testimony suggesting the president still learning the balance between his office, d.o.j., fbi, and the like. meanwhile, the reaction from the white house in response to questions about james comey s testimony today, quote, i can definitely say the president is not a liar. that was from sarah huckabee sanders. during an offcamera briefing. more on that later. she was also pressed on whether or not the has recordings, if there are any recording devices in the white house. quote, i have no idea, she said. when asked to look into the question, shshot back, sure i ll try to look under the couches. we are back with kristen welker, julie pace, peter baker, jeremy bash. jeremy, is this a real question? it s not a real question. i don t think the aides in the white house actually know whether there are recordings.
steeped in the long running protocols that establish the relationships between d.o.j., fbi and white houses. he s just new to this. welcome back to the 11th hour. just the point jeremy was making. speaker paul ryan this morning speaking during james comey s testimony suggesting the president still learning the balance between his office, d.o.j., fbi, and the like. meanwhile, the reaction from the white house in response to questions about james comey s testimony today, quote, i can definitely say the president is not a liar. that was from sarah huckabee sanders. during an offcamera briefing. more on that later. she was also pressed on whether or not the has recordings, if there are any recording devices in the white house. quote, i have no idea, she said. when asked to look into the question, she shot back, sure i ll try to look under the kouchsz. we are back with kristen welker,
