Foreign power unwittingly. because what the fbi fundamentally wants to know is what leverage does a foreign policy have over you? what is a foreign policy doing to affect the national security of the united states? but criminal investigations have a beginning, middle and end. the threshold, do we open the case? the middle, have the egs, the end, chargers or no charges. the national security terrorism allegations, there a threshold, open the case, middle, and the end there is no end. the end is a foreign policy decision. for, again, our constitutional systems, the way we grap well a foreign policy threat by a president is impeachment. it does make you wonder when jim comey testified and said you can be somebody who betrayed your country unwittingly, you may not even know you have done that. you wonder whether he was referring to something in particular that he knew about, in light of these reports this weekend. there was a striking bit of his testimony that he chose to say that befo ....
North macedonia. it s subtle, right? the name change is macedonia s way of settling a decades long dispute with greece that should pave the way for them to join nato and the european union. turns out none of this is sitting well with russia whose state media accused the u.s. of interference and anti-russian rhetoric. in a september new york times report detailed a full-fledged disinformation campaign attributed to moscow. facebook posts urged voters to burn their ballots and hundreds of new websites popped up calling for a boycott. one widely shared news article even warned that google might eliminate macedonia from its list of recognized languages depending on the vote. there was such concern over the election that no less the defense secretary james mattis visited as a show of support from washington. while he was there, he warned of, quote, malicious cyber activity that threatens our democracies all of this for a nation about the size of ....
Border wall question? i think our democrat friends have painted themselves into a corner. they voted for border walls in the past, some 600-plus miles of border walls but the president is willing to work with them as long as they recognize, hey, we need border security. i theys something most americans agree to. i hope we will see nancy pelosi and chuck schumer final politic progress looking for common ground. later on in the interview, he also said he doesn t support a national emergency. congressman, what happens in that event? do you see a fwhorld which the right ri right wing media, rush limbaugh, backers on fox news, for example, would they support him doing a national emergency while the rest of the party goes against him? yes, they would. look, i don t think this i can understand why senator romney and others feel that way. i m not suggesting that i would feel that way but for the simple ....
The president is enough to implicate him. we think he possibly got a head of the trump tower meeting but how much he directed it, we don t know yet. the other thing i m thinking about is how much irrational, seemingly rational decisions paul manafort made during this entire scheme. first of all, even with being in pretty bad financial straits went to work as a volunteer for the trump campaign. then he would have handed this over. why would he do that without talking to the campaign. that would seem a little irrational to me. and fast forward to what we ve seen him do now to wait until he gets a go all the way through trial and then agree to cooperate, and then not be fully cooperative, when i was in court with watching him and his lawyers just a month ago, his lawyers said we don t even know what he lied about and if he intentionally did so, we need more time with our client. it s not clear he had the full picture. he could be lying to his lawyers too. manafort has a very long hi ....
The numbers will be incredible if we get it done, and we will get it done. one way or another, we will get it done. joining me now is former republican congressman ryan costello of pennsylvania. the panel is still here as well. congressman, former congressman, excuse me, it s good to see you. i am back to the question that i feel like we ve been all asking ourselves for the last week at least, if not longer, but considering the round and round we ve gone the last week, how the hell do we get out of this? there s going to have to be an emergency declaration by the president i think for the president to save face and for him to assuage the base because i don t see democrats coming to the table. i know that the republicans next message is going to be that the republicans are here to open the government, and the democrats wondemocrat want open borders. i don t think that will push democrats to get off their position. the president really, fully is ....
