when we think about that and what happened for president clinton and ken starr and the cope of where that investigation started, as to where it ended up, how important is that for the integrity of what a mueller team is doing, in looking back in historical context? well, it s absolutely true that special counsel investigations have proven unpredictable. they go off in different directions. they often charge crimes unrelated to the underlying centrality of what they were starting to investigate. so it would be utterly unsurprising if mueller ends up charging people with bank fraud, tax fraud, money laundering, tax evasion. he s looking at people in the international real estate business. nobody would want the fbi crawling through their business records and that s exactly what these gentlemen have at this point. congresswoman, as someone on the front lines of what happened for watergate and we think about the high benchmark of what it would be to go after collusion,
flynn s case. turkey and ukraine. they re unregistered foreign agents, kind of important, who they re getting paid by, who they re doing what for. but you re thinking that could be just that simple, not some type of major opening salvo into what everybody has suspected or wants mueller to find, some type of collusion. it may not go there. well, it could be a step towards mueller trying to nail that down. right? the way to pressure people to flip and get them to cooperate is to indict them and say, we ll go easy on you if you provide information. so it s a stage a process that unfolds in stages. i don t think we re at the climax of this story by any means with this development. all right, everybody s going to try to keep their powder dry. going to be a long one. thank you both so much. from lashing out to love fest, what is really going on in the gop and the call to action that could impact that party. we are declaring war on the republican establishment that does not back t
few weeks now, that they did believe the mueller investigation was coming to a close. sarah sanders has said that from the podium in the briefing. they think because the mueller team has been investigating some of the higher ranking people inside the white house, that they have been moving towards executing search warrants on principals that they believed that the probe was winding down. so i don t know what the white house was entirely surprised to see that this indictment was coming. it s difficult for them to prepare a defense before they know the nature of the indictment, before they know who or how many individuals will be indicted on monday. because the nature of their defense will change dramatically based on what kind of indictment we see. if it s something totally unrelated to russian collusion allegations, that might give the white house and republicans some cover to try to distance themselves from the underlying accusations of russian collusion. if it is something related to
indictment mean for a trump administration. we ll dive into how this team can respond to an investigation that had dismissed, called the russia story a hoax all along. the entire thing has been a witch-hunt and there s no collusion. if any collusion took place, it would be between the dnc and the clintons. russia is fake news. where yoe multiple quote options online and choose what s right for you. woah. flo and jamie here to see hqx. flo and jamie request entry. slovakia. triceratops. tapioca. racquetball. staccato. me llamo jamie. pumpernickel. pudding. employee: hey, guys! home quote explorer. it s home insurance made easy. password was hey guys.
i think it depends to a great extend on who gets indicted if this indictment does materialize on monday and what the indictment is for. to the point of one of your previous guests, this scandal has gotten a lot of coverage, but it s going to become a lot more real for a lot of people who don t follow this obsessively. when there are criminal charges and when it s not rumor and argument about whether something bad happened or not, but a criminal case, meeting a standard where they re able to get a grand jury to indict. that will draw a lot of attention. that said, because this like so many special counsel investigations has gotten pretty sprawling, it s possible we ll see sdiindictments for matters t are not closely related to donald trump s and russia s involvement in the election. stuff with paul manafort s finances and the like. if the indictment is peripheral like that, the white house will be able to say, they didn t find anything core on russia on collusion, which is not to say
