laura: the trump tower meetings there is confusion there. he was not president then. laura: and donald trump jr. notes of his talk came out today. the senate committee released the notes. he said he did not have a memory about talking to his father specifically. they are focussing on this blocked call he made that day. he doesn t remember whether it was to his father or not. that s the theory they are spinning out. since i believe it took place in the office, it would be easy for him laura: june 26th. and that s when i joined the campaign. nobody will focus on a russian woman who said she had information about hillary. she wants to negotiate sanctions and they throw her out. when she wants to meet again, they don t meet with her. i would not remember that. i have people coming up to me saying all kinds of things about
playing along. great to get your perspective on all of this. good to see you, be well, see you next time. thank you. i think that looking at your responses, by the way, it s about 50/50 there s a poll on my site you can go to. i think it s about the register that your brain processes sound. it must be. there s no other explanation. whatever you think the explanation is, come at me on twitter. this investor from qatar is now confirming he was at trump tower meetings in 2016. why was he there? was there a legitimate or a nefarious purpose? a member from the house intel committee wants to make a case to you as to why he thinks its relevant. we ll test it next.
make it look like they ve pursued it but this is so hyper partisan it is not getting done the right way. we ve heard from the beginning all complaints from democrats that witnesses they aren t able to subpoena or documents they can t get their hands on. this is one of the most comprehensive studies that lays out both the volume and the frequency of these contacts between trurp trump officials and the russians to show almost regular contact. there was some days where it only went days in between these contacts. so two key findings. first of all, there are about 70 contacts between trump officials and the russians. starting back when mieal cohen reached out to putin spokesperson about a trump about a building in moscow. and then going through the all of the other trump tower meetings and what not. but secondly, and this is something that hasn t been out there, 22 people in the campaign are documented to have known one way or another about those contacts which resonates when you c
counsel s team. you are willing to go to jail for this? sam? i m not cooperating. arrest me. you are not cooperating. arrest you? yes. i m not cooperating. you are more than happy to arrest me. you know what? at this instant, i m not a fan of donald trump, jake. you had a big falling out. when they start asking for stuff like this, it is a witch hunt. that falling out mr. tapper mentioned, mr. nunberg was hired and fired by the trump team for a racially charged facebook post in 2016 he says were not his. if true, nunberg says he thinks mr. trump was aware during the campaign of the trump tower
martha: [laughs] as you point out, the collusion narrative has been hinged primarily on the two meetings, the june 2016 meeting that i referenced a moment ago with congressman king between donald trump jr. and some people who had promised, we might have centered on hillary, is that collusion? the interesting thing about the trump tower meetings, i never understood by people like adam schiff who pointed that as potential evidence of collusion, if anything it seems to run against that narrative. the russians used an acquaintance, and music promoter, to get a meeting with donald trump jr. on the promise of giving evidence of legal contributions to the clinton campaign. they didn t limit the meeting. they held her trump tower where there was an army of reporters downstairs. does that sound like a russian into operation? because it s not very convincing. it s not very convincing that the russians have a top top secret, you know, conspiracy. going to reveal it to donald
