Michael flynn. End the investigation. Im joined noud by ken dilanian with nbc news it, Natasha Bertrand who covers is the russia probe with the atlantic and jill winebanks, all three of you, i want to know what you make of these two witnesses being called, comey already and sessions very soon.

It seems like ken said hes moving more quickly along the obstruction path.

They are not on the same page on this crucial issue of Obstruction Of Justice. Why do you think the president is so against questions about Obstruction Of Justice given that the Public Record on this speaks for itself . He said one thing to nbc news and another thing on twitter. Why wouldnt he answer questions when he has been so public about it . What is his issue with it . I think the president does want to sit down with bob mueller and his Legal Counsel is advising him against this.

That is what his legal team i think is recommending that the president doesnt sit down. I think the president does want to sit down with bob mueller and get this behind him. There this is whole idea out there that he likes to

Rachel Maddow takes a look at the days top political news stories. So that was the answer. Thats the tension on the intelligence.
