Impeachment case will be dead on arrival. And that he essentially he, the jury foreman, plans to coordinate the Upcoming Senate trial with its defendant. And everything i do during this, i am coordinating with white house counsel. There will be no difference between the president s position and our position as to how to handle this. So yesterday on this show, i made the analogy of the upcoming trump impeachment trial to the o. J. Simpson trial in which a man who many people believed was guilty was instead acquitted. With that acquittal becoming meaningness for a lot of his fellow citizens. Overnight a friend sent me a tweet by professor kendi that i think sums it up even better because the outcome of the o. J. Simpson trial was indeed in doubt. No one knew what that verdict was going to be until it happened. Whereas trumps trial in that trial, to quote professor kendi, its becoming like a jim crow trial. Deep down everyone knows everything. Everyone knows the racist defendant is guilty
TUCSON (KVOA) — Inside the Diamond Children’s Medical Center on the campus of the University of an Arizona sits the Steele Research Center, where doctors and researchers are on the
russians. and, in fact, the idea that peter, i ll give this one to you, the idea that this guy, christopher steele who was hired was this anti-trump horrible person who hated trump, the opposite appears to be true. this is a quote from the inspector general s report which found the opposite of what all these republicans are saying. the steele dossier was not the source of the investigation. simply was not. but it quotes steele called the allegation he was biased against trump from the start ridiculous. if anything, he was favorably disposed toward the trump family before he began his research because he visited a trump family member at trump tower and had been friendly with the family member for some years. he described their relationship as personable and gifted the family a tartan. do you know who that family member is? there s been speculation. it sounds like the person who originally funded the steele
so if there was anything these impeachment hearings have made clear it s that one side of the aisle is grounded in reality while the other side is devin nunes peddling bizarre, disproved and russian intelligence sourced claims about the steele dossier and how the obama deep state was out to keep president trump from becoming president. that argument became tougher to sustain this week after the justice department s inspector general concluded the fbi was not motivated by political bias when they investigated the very real and very troubling contacts between trump s campaign and russian operatives. investigators did not rely on the research from former british spy christopher steele when it launched its investigation. the origins of the now-infamous steele dossier go back to 2016 when christopher steele was contacted by the private intelligence firm fusion gps to do some research on donald trump for a client. it s important to remember that
but i was just talking to chris about this the other day. and i think he mentioned the fact that he was friendly with ivanka the very first time we met. he certainly had no animus against them. what we ve said previously in testimony and other places is that to the extent that there was an opinion that was formed about donald trump s fitness to be president of the united states it was formed during the course of the research. and the reason that chris was so concerned about donald trump becoming president was because of what we were finding about him, which was really scary. and that is what i want to get to now. there s a washington post piece that compares what the mueller report found and what steele found. and i ll read a little bit of it. the mueller report substantiates the core reporting and many of the specifics in steele s 2016 memoranda including the trump campaign figures were secretly meeting with kremlin figures that russia was conducting a covert operation to elect do
