Had that would be damaging to the clinton stone. The indictment says stone was contacted by Senior Trump Campaign officials to inquire about future relaess. After the july 2016 release of stolen dnc emails by wikileaks, a senior official was directed to contact stone about any additional releases and what other damaging information they had regarding the county campaign. Stone told them about damaging material by wikileaks. That seems pretty clear. It also stands in contradiction who what roger stone said last year. There is no evidence whatsoever that i had advanced knowledge of the content or source of this material. I received nothing from wikileaks or from the russians. I passed nothing onto donald trump or the Trump Campaign. Weve been through this ad nauseam. It is a wild goose chase. Again, a direct contradiction to what the special counsel says nature is steve bannon. Now a person with direct knowledge of this investigation and indictment tells nbc news the president s former c
Than 48066 yearold political. Life are. What are former fbi agents who carried out raids like this think about this obvious show o intimidation . S they will shows tonight plus th shutdown fight is over and abou 40 minutes ago the government i officially open. Its clear that trump didnt come out on top. While the democrats cloaked about a political victory, here is my question tonight. Have they revealed that they care more about politics in 202 than the people of our great country . We will examine. But first. Do whatsoever i will bear false witness against the president nor will i make up se. Ies former trump advisors lookin like he came out of the golf course and came out of the courtroom defiant saying he wont testify against the president of warmed armed fbi agents to his house before the sun was up. Still remained resolute earlier tonight with their own tucker carlson. I will not flip, i will not fold, i will not bend i will no bear false witness against the president , i intend
As everyone knows, i have a very powerful alternative, but i didnt want to use it at this time. The bill to officially reopen the government at least temporarily could hit the president s desk any time now. We will bring you any updates as soon as we get them. But we start with the big news out of the Mueller Investigation today. Donald trumps longest serving political adviser, roger stone, charged with seven counts, including obstruction of justice, making false statements to congress and the fbi and witness tampering. Stone was arrested in his ft. Lauderdale home and later released on bond. The 24page indictment filling in pager pieces of the trumprussia cord natiordinatioe and exposing new details how information flowed between wikileaks, which the president s own secretary of state once described as a Hostile Intelligence Service embedded by russia to the Trump Campaign. From the indictment quote, during the summer of 2016 stone spoke to Senior Trump Campaign officials about organi
The president now faces the rath of his far right base like ann coulter who tweeted trump is the biggest wimp ever to serve as president of the United States. Wimp. Much more on that crushing trump headline coming up. We begin with the predawn raid of the fbi in florida where he was later hauled before a judge in shabales. Hes been charged with several criminal counts including ubstrubz, and five counts of making false statements to the conress. Most significant is it draws the russia investigation a step closer. It indicates mueller has evidence directly related to the core of his mandate which is to investigate quote any links and or cord between russian government and vinyls associated with the ampain of on the don closed quote. In other words todays indictment appear to be exhibit ashes. In defailing his alleged lies, the white house established stone as a key link beand a front for russian intelligence which can played a crucial role in the kremlins campaign to screw with the amer
Riveted the nation decades ago. I began by telling the president that there was a cancer growing on the presidency. And if the cancer was not removed the president himself would be killed by it. I also told him that it was important that this cancer be removed immediately. Then there was the iran contra scandal in the 1980s, a defining event during reagans presidency and the olive north testimony. As i told you yesterday that i was going to tell you the truth, the good, the bad and the ugly, well, this is the truth. I did probably the grossest misjudgment that ive made in my life. And of course the russia investigation and questions about possible collusion between the Trump Campaign and russia have consumed Donald Trumps presidency for more than two years. I dont think it is for me to say whether the conversation i have with the president was an effort to obstruct. I took it as a disturbing thing and concerning but thats a conclusion i am sure the special counsel will work towards to
