Bite from rod rosenstein today. he was at an event and reacting to what he heard about the freedom caucus drawing up articles of impeachment against rosenstein. i don t have anything to say about documents like that that nobody has the courage to put their name on and leak in that way. but i can tell you, there have been people who have been making threats privately and publicly against me for quite some time. i think they should understand by now, the department of justice is not going to be extorted. laura: joe? i think mr. rosenstein has just shown his ignorance of the constitution. congress has demanded access to documents. his refusal and obstructionism to turn over the documents has led to the confrontation which ....
Constitutional crisis because the president is not going to answer these questions under any set of circumstances. laura: saul, when i saw this report in the washington post about the presidential subpoena, it takes a lot to shock me these days in washington but i took a couple extra breaths there. your reaction? i m not sure i saw the posting. is a subpoena issued to the president? laura: mueller raised the possibility with the trump legal team reportedly. i think joe is absolutely right. if president trump decides not to answer these questions and these are very broad questions that definitely raise issues of executive privilege and separation of powers. if he declines to answer and mueller issues a subpoena, you know, it s not just a question of does trump invoke the fifth ....

Why they think the list was leaked. joe degeneva and saul wisenberg. i mean the intrigue about who leaked what and who has motive. i don t care who leaked it. i think what s important is that these are clearly the types of questions discussed between the president s team and mr. mueller. and the question is what do these questions say? they say that the investigation is now lurching into territory protected by the constitutional privileges of the president of the united states. and that if mueller let s assume these questions are accurate, that this is what mueller wants to ask. if they are and if he insists on answers and will not accept a written answer and demands an interview, which the president rejects and mueller insists on a subpoena, we are headed to a ....
Service when america needed their service. donald trump wow. donald trump was somewhat athletic young man, he played football and tennis and squash, yet unlike robert mueller, donald trump took five deferments, four for college and one for bad feet. this guy that played football, golf, tennis and every sport he could. ask yourself about those also leading trump s charge against a war hero. where were they? newt gingrich opted out of service himself taking student and marriage deferments over and over again during the vietnam war that bob mueller chose to fight for, to defend this country, shot through the thigh, continued fighting and defending this country. we have joe degeneva he said in ....
