complete exoneration. should they have just stopped at nadler? honestly, we were saying if they had said we rest, that s it. that might have been but you knock out those two all you re left with is no collusion. so we get into this really sort of silly semantic game. and i think what mueller was trying to say is legally conspiracy s a term, collusion s not. but every day, colloquially the way that people talk they re interchangeable. this is a tactic you see in criminal law sometimes when you got nowhere to go, which is attack the investigators, point the finger at the other side, at the prosecutors, and it can work sometimes. yeah. so last night, jack, on fox news sean hannity spent most of his opening monologue laying out a series of questions for lawmakers to ask mueller. and today some of the republican questions were remarkably similar. here s one. here s on mueller s meeting with trump. look at this. did he give you a reason why he fired james comey, yes or no, mr. mu
mueller, that you re friends with jim comey? you and james comey have been good friends, were good friends for many years, correct? were you aware that weisman was a devote democrat who was at hillary clinton s victory party? andrew weisman attended hillary clinton s election night party. did you know that before or after he came on the team. were you aware that jeanie ray worked for you while she worked for hillary clinton on the clinton foundation as her lawyer? were you aware jeanie ray represented ms. hillary clinton regarding emails originating from hillary clinton s time as secretary of state? hard to overlook the similarities. i m just saying. how long did it take sean to write those questions for the republicans on the committee? seriously. yeah. right? yeah. so, listen, let s talk about the democrats. the president and his allies are out there claiming that it was a disaster for them. was it a disaster? no. let me say look, first of all, i don t think a
yeah. so let s get the big picture now. joining me now is shimon prokupecz, chris cillizza, juliette kayyem. he is a good guest to have because he went there. and i saw you guys good evening. i saw you guys sort of your eared perked up, you know, when he talked about the guy that he wasn t him. not prime time mueller. why did you perk up when you well, he s got a lot more experience with bob mueller, watching bob mueller than i do, but the two-year public perception of bob mueller i mean, what s difficult, you have to step back. bob mueller never spoke with very few exceptions in two years. it wasn t like he wasn t seen in public much, don, so there was sort of a sphinx like who this guy was portrayed as sort of the uber prosecutor. he s got the receipts. and certainly in the house judiciary committee a little less so in the intelligence committee, but certainly that
yeah. how is that a good day? i don t know. not that he was going to charge him but he couldn t if he wanted to anyway because of doj. he couldn t even decide. all right. thank you both. i appreciate if it. so in the wake of mueller s testimony, how much pressure is nancy pelosi, the house speaker, getting from her caucus to start an impeachment inquiry? we re going to dig into that next. and a unicorn notebook! get everything on your list. this week s doorbuster - notebooks for 10¢, 10¢ in store or online from the advisors at office depot officemax. wake up! there s a lot that needs to get done today. small things. big things. too hard to do alone things. day after day, you need to get it all done. and here to listen and help you through it all is bank of america. with the expertise and know-how you need to reach that blissful state of done-ness. so let s get after it. everything is all right what would you like the power to do?® all right
supposedly yes, you are doing this with your team, but you re the head guy of this office. i want to move on but go on. no, to the what happens next. the story abotoday is about the messenger. i think that the story is about the the long term i was going to say, if you put that aside. it s going to be about the message. what was successfully done and john picked up on it as well was by the intelligence committee hearing testimony. i thought mueller turned the story masterfully about law. really the volume ii question, is there a question of obstruction of justice, to the question of loyalty. he kept using this word loyal or disloyal. what did it mean to be a president of the united states and his family and what they did with the russians? that s not a legal question. that doesn t require you to have a law degree. that, to me, is something that is graspable. that s something that i can explain to my mother or someone on the street. do you think it s loyal of people to do
