Wolf Blitzer looks at politics, breaking news and international stories. Historically, because a lot of our viewers will remember. When you and bob woodward were working on the watergate related stories, was president nixon as anxious publicly during your reporting as we now see this president being very anxious, deeply concerned about the Mueller Probe .

And there will be some narrows of the course of the topics, but they will still focus on collusion and obstruction of justice. I think it was last in may when he said it, walking on the south lawn that hes open to talking about all of this with robert mueller. That new reporting for the new york times, insisting
Exploring issues that affect leaders in the U. S. And around the globe. Manafort is turned his direction. One can only imagine what is going through manaforts mind, because if you believe the prosecution version of the case, gates knows all his secrets and is about to expose them to the jury. If you believe the defense version, gates is setting manafort up and framing him. Well have to see which version the jury believes. Ken, how long can we expect gates to be on stand and, number two, what is manaforts defense right now . They were really motoring through gates testimony. Generally this court wraps up at 5 30 but ive got to believe hell be back tomorrow on direct and then there will be a lengthy cross examination. The defense really rests on tarnishing gates. There was some devastating testimony before gates from Cindy Lapartyorta who made the understand that she had no idea that Paul Manafort had overseas accounts. He was supposed to disclose on his taxes. She prepared the taxes and
