Through the b. S. I dont know if theres been any. Wants to cut through the b. S. , get the answers to the questions about how long this is going to go on and this is what was most interesting to me. One of my sources says to me, hes going to find out if we have to fight and where this leads. They seem to think that Rudy Giuliani will be the one to be able to do that where nobody else was able to do that before. In some interviews today he talked about his prior relationship with Robert Mueller. Its not clear to me how a prior relationship with mueller would impact an on going investigation. And he told that in his interview that they do have a prior relationship. I think i should remind people that john dab the lawyer that quit also had a prior relationship with mueller. Giuliani did work with mueller after 9 11 of course. But i think that whole we have a relationship and we get along can be overdone because a lot of people worked with mueller over the years. He also said i think when
on the cohen thing, what i don t understand, i m not a lawyer, is why would rosenstein volunteer that to the president. he was not asked? is it to save his job? that s a possibility? a requirement. or is it something that he would do because he knew that the president was concerned about it and he shouldn t be. i m not going to say he s a guy that s going to get rolled here. he s a person who is a great character, high integrity. so why would you do it? i don t know. i think politics seeps into every phase of our government now. the three separate branches are becoming, you know, the judiciary used to be kind of independent. we hope it remains that way but the executive branch and investigative functions now seem to be points higher lliticized. they said they re not going to follow along with the president s immigration pledge. that s number one but number two
this hanging over as a cloud over the elections so that there s a reason that anybody can blame what happens in the fall on him. a lot of people looking into the mueller investigation, if robert mueller is trying to figure out intent. if they re looking at obstruction of justice, intent is critical in a lot of the president s actions and for that you would think they would have to actually interview the president. that s their point i think. they would like to interview him. the point from the white house is we have given you over a million documents from everybody that s talked to the president and that the president of course keeps no notes and does no e-mails. so you have all of this information. the lawyers, i don t think, muell mueller s team, i don t think they re going to buy that but they do understand there s different rules for a president than there are for you and me. does it make sense that rosenstein would say to the president, we think at the end of last week, that
he recently visited for example. we don t know if it was discussed then. we do know at one point he was being discussed as attorney general, if you ll recall, secretary of state and i m wondering if he joins this legal team whether he could ever become the attorney general because he might be conflicted because he represented the president. but they re friends obviously and what we do know is that the president is reaching back to people he feels comfortable with at this point. right. thank you very much. turning now to the other looming investigation involving another of the president s lawyers that have been recording that the president is fixated on the criminal investigation of michael cohen. theth said he is not a target in that investigation. so what more do we know about what rosenstein said to the president? well, we know that this is the result of to some extent the
