review box. tyrus, what do you think? why don t you and i go on like a little tea. tyrus: my t levels are great. half half. tyrus: i m good. last thing i want to do is wake the gorilla up. greg: i have no idea what you mean. have your thoughts because we ve taken a bite out of this apple, what, three times. tyrus: more times than we needed greg: exactly. so any new interspec shuns or thought. tyrus: just that article you sent me and i was like dam why does he have to be so right. we want to be at the head of the table. we want to sit at the table. brothers, sisters, we want that recognition. they have changed the oscars to suit us in every way. they got rid of the orchestra brought if a d.j. they made extra jobs for more hosts. and we re at the head of the table and we ruin the dam party. it s like, we had the dinner, we
in fact, why don t you and i bring in jim kavanaugh, former special agent in charge of the atf, and ask that question to you, jim. is there ever a reason to not put out a lot of specific information in terms of security, safety for the community, or in terms of what officials may be dealing with an active shooter? that s right, alex. first you have to get it. then you have to make sure it s right because if you put it out as a commander that something for the community, you ve got to make sure you re putting out something that s right. and they ve got to sort through the fog of war. we call it the fog of war. all the information that comes at you from all these directions. you know, it s not unlike you re seeing at the news desk, at the anchor desk, and that the viewers are experiencing with us right now. this is very similar to what you see at the command post on the scene of a big event like this. there s a lot of fog in front of you. there s a lot of information moving real fast a
of today was not how this plays with bob mueller or anyone in the southern district of new york. they have documents, they have a point of view. what mattered was whether in the court of public opinion michael cohen convinced people that he was a deeply-flawed but now honest repent ant person telling the truth. right. and i think you saw a lot of what michael cohen was trying to do there. i think one of the members of the panel mentioned earlier that if he wanted to just go all out and lie, he could have just said i heard don jr. say that they were going to have this meeting with the russians in the summer of 2016. he could have said something like that if he wanted to just go whole hog. and to seemed like he was also today, erin, trying to walk a fine line. if you notice, he appears to balloon a little bit for the democrats who have been sort of going on the theory that the president and his company essentially have been laundering russian money for years. if you remember he was ask
about,if you were making something up, why not go for broke and say, you heard them talk about the meeting and so he was restrained in certain ways. those are things consistent with truth telling. he s a damaged witness and convicted of perjury before congress but i think it was a good day for him on the whole. and evan, as i just played that sound bite, when he said ten briefings in total and saying that those were to ivanka and don jr. and what is the significance of that in the broader context, evan? the significant there is i think the democrats on that committee may want to test exactly what ivanka trump and what donald trump jr. meant in whatever previous answers they ve given to that very question. look, i think what we know so far is that the answer at least from the trump side has been that their communication about this project ended in
trump said she knew literally almost nothing about the project and don jr. who told congress that he was only peripherally aware of it and neither of those go with ten briefings and you went on until the president took office. up front now john dean who came up several times due to comments on his program and evan perez and from april ryan and barrett burger, former assistant u.s. attorney for the southern district of new york harry sandic and author of the making of donald trump david k. johnson as we try to understand what happened. john, let me start with you. you said today was a turning point. how? well it was certainly a serious punctuation mark on how far it will turn is the remaining question.
