preet of the southern district was god fatheresque to see him there he was live tweeting it. i wondered aloud how much people not in the new york washington corridor were interested in the plot line, heard from a lot of people in kansas which i regard as the american center of america about 100 miles from where i used to live. they were very much watching this plot line. was that stage craft or was this something else at work. prooet is a came down to support jim comey. he was fired he was a prosecutor in the southern district of new york. he knows the russia file because he was in charge of the investigation in 2010 when the fbi and the cia wrapped up the illegals, the russian illegal operatives living under deep cover. they show the americans. prooet was prosecutor run tlag case. they were apparently here according to the dni report they were here to morin the 10u8 2008 election. this is where you see the
do you have any doubt that the russian government was behind the intrusions in the dnc and the dccc systems and the subsequent leaks of that information. no, no doubt. imcomey republican senator richard burr of north carolina and a key exchange of russia hacking which president trump has continued to question throughout the hearing comey underscored the seriousness of the attack. it was of a active measures campaign driven from the top of that government and naes as unfake as you can possibly get. it s not republicans or democrats they re college coming after america. if any americans were part of helping the russians do that to us, that is a very big deal. jeremy bash is back with us and julia is with us here in the studio. moscow born journal it current with the atlantic before i get to a bit of visual arts at the hearing today, julia, where were
