president trump are possibly evidence of obstruction of justice. do you agree? i do. donald trump fired james comey and under our obstruction of justice statute it s very broad, you don t actually have to obstruct justice. you just have to endeavor to influence an investigation and then the president went on national tv a couple of days later and said the one thing his attorneys told him never to say was that he basically fired james comey because of the russia investigation. that s textbook obstruction of justice. it s not surprising to me that james comey also believes that that s possibly obstruction of justice as well. could comey s new book which is just out create problems for this ongoing mueller investigation? it could, but i m not going to do what the republican national committee chairwoman did and talk about a book that i have not read so i ll wait to read it and then happy to talk about it. do you buy james comey s ex-practice nice for his handling of the clinton e-
australian ambassador in london that he hears that the russians have this damaging dirt on hillary clinton, he said and he makes a point that was before it became public that russia had stolen that information and for him it raises the question for james comey as to whether that foreknowledge could lead to the possibility that someone in the trump world was aiding or abetting or had some forewarning this material was coming. yeah, he had launched that investigation in july of 2016 even though he never disclosed it throughout the rest of that campaign unlike with hillary clinton where he disclosed plenty. our thanks very much for that, jim. just ahead, more breaking news. a judge forces president trump s lawyer michael cohen to reveal the name of his secret client, that would be the fox news host sean hannity. and the escalating battle between president trump and the man he fired as fbi director james comey calling the president, quote, morally unfit for office. liberty mutual sav
