and the russia collusion theory. we all sat and listened to mr. mueller state unequivocally there was no evidence that the trump campaign colluded with russia. so that didn t work for the democrats. so they then changed their talking points and moved to the obstruction of justice theory, that the president obstructed justice. then that fizzled. then after coordinating with chairman schiff s staff a whistle-blower filed a complaint based completely on hear sxai overhearing other people that were on the phone call talk about a phone call between two world leaders. which led to the intel committee, so-called impeachment inquiry which violated all past historical precedent, denied the president basic due process rights and fundamental fairness by conducting this so-called inquiry in secret without the minority s ability to call witnesses and denied the president the ability to have his lawyers cross-examine witnesses. a right afforded to president clinton and every defendant in our justice
human informants, intelligence assets these are things that are not something that a normal or typical and of course, the end of the investigation we found out the russia collusion theory was a hoax and there s not a single america who colluded with the russia to steal the 2060 election. to find out that the department of justice came to believe this and what they did to pursue this conspiracy theory is just poor for america. shannon: listen, we know were getting a report and were saying to him once you see the horror west report you will understand what the durham investigation has been shifted to a criminal probe. who should be wary tonight? i think the president should be worried i think every american should be worried that our justice department has been weaponized by bill barr and the president to go after people who have been critical of him. this is despicable, it s un-american, unprecedented in our history. i don t know what exactly they

heard from the president s campaign, 2020 campaign, that is. brad parscale saying in part today, today marks the day that president trump has been completely and fully vindicated by special counsel, robert mueller, exposing the russia collusion theory in an elaborate web of lies and deset. obviously, that is spin from his 2020 campaign manager and a preview for how we will see this investigation play out in 2020. how the president will try to use it to his advantage. rev? yeah. joining us now is democratic presidential candidate, mayor pete buttigieg.
