to make as more facts come out. if you remember in the stormy daniels case, before all the facts of that case came out, rudy giuliani was on air saying if the president did x, y, and z, what s the big deal? that was before we knew he had indeed had done x, y and z. and so the clip you played before this, that seemed like the same play book. saying so what if he called the president of the ukraine and said this. so that s does that mean in your mind that he did it? it reminds me of the o.j. book, if i did it. so he s either giving us a clue to the coming defense. and famous method of spin. get the facts out ahead of time. so it seems like it s old news. or he s just completely just
was used. you re for impeachment? i m for xy andz so he s trying to appeal to those who would take strong positions on impeachment in the democratic caucus. do you think she expected this to leak, though? this was a very small group of people? the only thing i can tell you is i m no longer leaking or being accused of doing that. but, you know, there s nothing sacred in the democratic caucus. it was something i had to deal with as the chairman of the caucus and reprimand my colleagues from time to time and say, you know, it s really important we keep the family discussion within the family. but inevitably, kasie, if it s hot enough, salacious enough, it will get out. so, again, who do you think is going to win this fight? do you think pelosi is going to win this fight or nadler? i don t think they re too far off the mark from each other. what nancy has been calling for is to further the investigation, jerry, do your job. elijah, do your job, et cetera.
under oath. i ve done everything they have requested, and will continue to cooperate, unquote. so he will answer any questions if the fbi has any questions for him. but you re basically saying that the fbi investigation, even if they are told just investigate this one assault charge, find out if the allegation is true, if there is anything more we can find out, the fbi might say, well, we didn t find anything on that. but we did find out that he was not forthcoming in his testimony before the senate on x, y and z. and they could still go down that road, even though they re told only investigate the allegation? i don t think the two were separate. if you walk into a room, let s say with people who knew him in college or high school, and you say there are allegations about how we treated women, and those people start to say, well, a lot of us don t remember, because the entire environment was a beer-fueled environment. everybody was drinking 15 beers, and judge kavanaugh was, i don t t
room. we know donald trump has used this world stage for his own personal relationships, anything could happen, we know russians have interfered with our elections for the purposes of affecting the election in favor of donald trump. who knows if in that room there s a discussion of what will happen in the midterms. who knows if it s further collusion on the part of the president of the united states? what we do know is it s destructive diplomacy and we should be alarmed. why would the u.s. have asked for that one on one interview with nobody present? i actually think it s more because donald trump is going to want to deny anything he may promise putin that he gets blamed for later on after the conversation becomes public. we know putin will say something about the meeting and how the president agreed to do xy andz and the president want december
saddler had with congressional communication staffers. this was not internal closed door white house meeting. this was a meeting where you are trying to get your message straight about xy and z. and that is how john mccain probably came up. when she said we didn t have to worry about his vote. so first of all, to say that she is not going to talk about internal leaks is actually inaccurate. and then secondly, it is clear to me, that she would have been out there saying something else if the president had directed otherwise. we know the president cares an awful lot about what his press secretary says and so i have to believe. and as jeff said before, we can t prove it at this point, but i have got to believe she was doing this with the president s assent or even direction.
