election. if there really is evidence the nra was working with russian agents to steal the 2016 election, there has to be some consequences for that. but listen, the nra is desperate today. that s why they re in the oval office making these offers to help the president out with impeachment if he steps away from the background checks table. they re losing members, they re losing funding, their undy re u investigation. this is a moment when republicans feel more confident that they can step out from their historical allegiance with the gun lobby and do a deal that will save lives. we re excited about taking questions from the audience, victims of gun violence, family members, congresswoman gabby giffords will be here as well. she is, she will be here all day. we are so proud to stand behind
liberty mutual insurance. liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. when it comes to this delicate political situation, the power of the presidency, whether this investigation is warranted, bill barr had better give us some ironclad rock-bottom assurances in terms of his independence and willingness to step aside and let mueller finish his job. harris: democrats gearing up to grill president trump s choice for attorney general. that happens tomorrow when he goes before the senate judiciary committee for two days of confirmation hearing. they are concerned that has passed criticism of the mu investigation will influence his oversight of that probe. in written testimony, really said it was earring, barr says he will let mueller finish the investigation and valves that
