poll today, not exclusive as they have published this already. cbc asked voters whether the fbi should be investigating the president s ties to russia. respondents did the equivalent of screaming a collective yes into the telephone. two-thirds of the country, almost two-thirds, 63% thinks it is necessary and should keep going. while these investigations chug along at the fbi and in congress more-or-less, voters quite clearly have questions that they want answered, they want results and it sounds like they want dramatic results if these investigations turn up a worst case scenario answer. congressman adam schiff is the ranking democrat in charge of the investigation in the house. he says from his position at that committee, he has seen evidence he would describe as more than circumstantial, that the trump campaign did collude with russia in their attack on our election last year and congressman schiff will join us in a few minutes to help us answer those questions or which
the trump campaign. that would be the top democrat on that committee, adam schiff, if the white house really did shut this thing down, if the common beltway wisdom is correct and the house investigation committee into russia is over and shut down if the white house had any role in achieing that outcome, it s because they were afraid what adam schiff was going to do. adam schiff is here tonight live. it s a big show tonight. meanwhile, today was the start of the biggest rupture in europe, since the end of world war ii. the british people voted narrowly last summer to leave the european union. today, britain s represent tich at the eu presented the formal paperwork that starts the process of the uk getting out of
power. that s a bad thing for anybody in high government office. just today a long time state department employee was arrested and charged with having undisclosed and allegedly corrupt contacts with the chinese government. that person got arrested today at the state department. it s a really bad thing to have those kinds of undisclosed contacts with a foreign government if you re in the government. it s a national security disaster for somebody who has access to all the most sensitive national security and intelligence information in the government because they re serving as the national security advisor. sally yates was expected to testify about that yesterday, what she brought to the white house, what she told them about the national security advisor and his contacts with russia. that was supposed to happen yesterday. the republican chairman cancelled the hearing and hasn t rescheduled it. the senate intelligence
trump continue toerve as president or should he resign? answer, resign. the majority of the country, 53% says if he or anybody in his campaign worked to swing the election in his favor, donald trump should resign as president. so, at least for a majority of the country that would be a presidency ending development. as far as the investigations looking into this mess, there is quite a considerable national appetite for those investigat n investigations to keep going, keep digging. cnbc news is also out with a new poll today, not exclusive as they have published this already. cn cbc asked voters whether the fbi should be investigating the president s ties to russia. respondents did the equivalent of screaming a collective yes into the telephone. two-thirds of the country,
people on their list they want to talk to for their investigation of trump and russia. they hinted former security advisor michael flynn and sally yates are among those 20 people. they confirmed his son-in-law will be one of the people they speak to. and on the house side the house investigation may or may not be blowing up. we ll hear more on that from congressman schiff. the senate is going ahead, tomorrow, not something you want to miss if you re interested in this issue. one point about that, the last point i want to make. confirming in no uncertain terms, there is one thing the committee will not be looking at, the question of whether or not the russian attack is over, whether russia is still doing their thing, whether they are in fact collecting their payment from the trump administration
