investigation. we know from the fap it wasn t the case. the fbi was looking at russian involvement in the investigation long before they got hands on the steel dossier. it was paid by the clinton camp. it was set in motion by opposition research. financed by the clinton campaign. it s not true. law enforcement officials put out a clear timeline on how this thing was born. republicans were playing with fire here. robert mueller is an institutionalist to the you are the co. he chose not to force the president by subpoena or other methods to sit down for an interview or testify. i think he believes the process if it is going to move into anything that involves an indictment of the president properly belongs to the congress. there is a potential still that there is a lot of information in the report that will be very difficult for trump to respond
and donald trump and corruption has no place here. let them do their cart wheels on fox. we don t know what they re going to say, a little bit disappointment of donald trump jr. i think the progressives side were excited and still going forward and a little bit out of a few people but with focus. let s talk about the people who don t have all the win in their cells. let s play who s really excited of the thing they mostly hate of the mueller report on fox news last night. out of the mueller investigation, we did not get a single indictment on collusion of russia. that was the under lining issues. i don t think the president supporters should uncork the campaign. i think there will be negative things of the president. this is a biassed group of people that only looked at president trump and did not look at the true collusion. doct
who won the week? it is not a who, it is a what. the what is the rule of law. i think the rule of law won the week. on friday, mueller handed over his report to the attorney general and i say the rule of law won the week because the wek because throughout this entire process, we seen people indicted. we seen people go to jail. we seen people found guilty. we ve seen attorneys, general sessions, whitaker and barr all be a part of this process. rod rosenstein. none of those attorneys did anything to impede the process of this investigation and lastly, robert mueller, the person who all of us in washington thought was hanging by a string for all these 37 five days thinking that he was going to be fired by the president of the united states at any moment never was. and so that s why i think the rule of law won the week. okay. well, you know, we ll see. it s still unfolding.
thank you for being here congresswoman. you are so welcome and delighted to be here always. thank you very much. let s start with what william barr, the current attorney general has said. i remained committed to as much transparency as possible. i will keep you informed. that was his letter to congress. is that enough? not good enough. we want full disclosure. the american people deserve to know what our special counsel have discovered in this investigation over 22 months. we don t want to hear anything about barr using his discretion to decide what we should see or what we should know and that, we want the full report. we deserve it and keep the pressure onto say to him that he want transparency. we want to know exactly what s in that report and we want all of the under lining documents to
marco rubio said what you said this morning on meet the press. let s play marco rubio talking about he wants to see the report come out for different reasons. what was the underlying criminal predicate for the entire investigation? let s see the fisa applications? this was an extraordinary use of government surveillance power. we have legal reasons why you wouldn t use it. what was the underlying predicate for the applications? let s see all of that. let s put that out there so we can pass judgment about how it was conducted or the predicate for the investigation was conducted during the obama years? jonathan capehart, we are seeing what the talking point will be on the other side. get the report out so we can investigate the obama administration. yeah. if you look at the front page of the new york post, just below the banner of the name of the
