murder, yet here in russia we found plenty of people who thought if the two did kill litvinenko he probably had it coming. thank you very much for talking to us. in the duma, russia s parliament, the pugnacious leader of the ultra-nationalist party has nothing but disdain for litvinenko. translator: who needs this little petty person? he was just a piece of rubbish. reporter: vladimir zhirinovsky told us that here in russia litvinenko made plenty of enemies going back years. back in the 1990s, russia was in chaos after the collapse of the soviet union. it was a time when enormous fortunes were created and
(pterodactyl screech) believe it. geico could save you 15% or more on car insurance. let s close with a quick lightning round. go through other political stories including a potential challenger to president trump. bills wells, mark sanford might run. now joe welsh, former republican congressman from illinois now on the radio says, i might do it. are you running against him? i m strongly, strongly considering it. the only way you primary donald trump and beat him is to expose him for the con man he is. and if i did, john, that s what i d do, i d punch him every single day. and that would be interesting because he is pugnacious, however, i just want to get on the record, he was once a trump guy october 26, 2016, john
more aggressive as we go into this next debate because people know they ve got to stand out. joe biden, it will probably be smart to actually make these contrasts with kamala harris because progressives are concerned and there is a lot there and if he is able to draw that out, it would be, i think, very significant. he s drawing a line with kamala harris and also cory booker who you brought up there. listen to what he says about senator booker and when he was mayor of newark and new jersey. look at the mayor s record in newark. one of the provisions i wrote in the crime bill is the practice of misbehavior. his police department was stopping and frisking people, mostly african-american men. we took action against them. the justice department took action against them, held the police department capital. i understand pugnacious, talu, but is there some risk in the vice president taking on two african-american senators on issues of race? there is definitely a risk of

through it. i think it s a little bit difficult because we will hear first from judiciary, and they will question about the obstruction piece and later from house intel when they talk about the russian connections. this is an opportunity, and like you i found it to be riveting but very time consuming. a lot of people have not had the time to read the report. this will be an effective cliff notes version. when it came out i was literally stuck to a camera with my eyes on it. but many people did not have that opportunity. and. members of congress acknowledged they haven t read it and that s another subject. i find it surprising since they re in charge of doing this. but on the other side, jim jordan, who you have written about extensively and is somebody who typically comes about as combative and pugnacious in situations like this, what role do republicans
