With the russian story and found zero proof, so now they go for Obstruction Of Justice on the phony story. Nice. Thats trump in tweet. Joining me now are three National Security reporters, charlie savage, adam entous and shane harris. Shane, youve got the story which follows up on what we had last night, that the Special Counsel is looking at the president for Obstruction Of Justice. My question is how do you have to add to that .

And what i planned to say is wouldnt it be nice if it was just completely totally absolutely impossible to suspect that Vladimir Putin orchestrated what happened in syria this week so that his friend in the white house could have a big night with missiles and all of the praise he has picked up over the last 24 hours .
