staffer early on, and folks realize that in the dead of night, a lot of things become very attractive. you are probably seeing at the end of the day money back into the district where people came back back to work. that is what joe, president biden, no set to do very well. he understands the emotions and mechanics of human emotions. he understand what legislators needs in order to show results. that is when he s going to be able to do through august, is those negotiations. maria teresa, it shouldn t be tonight that i am learning that you were a staffer on the appropriations committee, okay? i should ve known that a long time ago. [laughs] thank you both very much for joining me. i appreciated. thank you, lawrence. coming up, president obama had something to say about donald trump, something that is relevant to congressman debbie s campaign for val demings joins us next
as it s convenient, he turns on you. you know, bill barr was notably for lack of a better term his henchmen for a long time and did things to the justice department that i and others who spent a career they re just found heartbreaking. so this was totally to be expected. and there s not a lot of merit to what donald trump is saying but it s not like bill barr is a special place waiting for him in terms of what he did here at the justice department. let s go to the two calamari s and so many others in the trump organization because there s something interesting about watching donald trump attacked bill barr today. if you re one of those loyalists as of tonight, in the
presidential election. donald trump said that his choice for attorney general was, quote, afraid, week, and pathetic. trump also said, quote, barr was a swamp creature. joining us now is andrew weissmann, former fbi council and former chief of the criminal division in the eastern district of new york. he s an msnbc legal analyst and andrew let s begin with donald trump and william barr since it may be with different language your view of william barr overlaps now somewhat with donald trump s view of william barr. [laughs] that s a great point lawrence. you know, there is no honor among thieves. if you worked for donald trump, you knew this day was coming. you don t go to work for him expecting loyalty and as soon
but it s clear that something is going to happen and to me it sounds like there may be individuals who are charged. there may be companies that are charged and to me that sort of a classic case where they made ill to go up and pressure people to cooperate. but you re not hearing that they yet have the goods on donald trump. there are no signs of that. yet, although we could be surprised. and the one point i would make about the press supports of the company being charged in some viewers may think what is the import of that? who cares if a company can t go to jail and that s not what i m really interested in. but just remember that for a company to be found guilty, the government has to prove that at least one individual at the company is criminally liable. so it means more than just a company. andrew weizmann, thank you
and coming, up donald trump attacked the man who used to be his favorite attorney general today, calling william barr pathetic and, quote, a swamp creature. and one of the criminal defense lawyers defending two employees of donald trump said today that he is not sure who is going to be indicted this week but he is sure that his two clients will not be indicted this week. maybe later, but not this week. andrew weissmann joins us next. joins us next enjoying freshly squeezed orange juice. now no fruit is forbidden. nexium 24hr stops acid before it starts for all-day, all-night protection. can you imagine 24 hours without heartburn? life. doesn t stop for diabetes. be ready for every moment, with glucerna. it s the number one doctor recommended brand that is scientifically designed to help manage your blood sugar. live every moment. glucerna.
