The latest Political Developments of the day and interviews with top newsmakers are featured. Order is, territory now. And i wonder if theyve had a chance to explain to the president what you reported last week, that under this beefed up postenron witness tampering law, he may have more exposure than he understands. They seem to be leaning on a First Amendment defense, which is not going to hold up if your reporting holds up hes being scrutinized for the way these fit together. What Rudy Giuliani said today is this is ridiculous, the clip you played. The Idea Obstruction by tweet. He said it was bizarre and idiotic and there was nothing to it and the president can express his opinions. The thing about the president and obstruction and collusion, you know, interference or whatever you want to call it is the president usually focuses on the russia question. He says, this is a witch hunt. There was no collusion. He repeats that over and over again. The thing is that does the president rea
getting what he thinks is the truth. and gloria, here s the thing, to the point mike is making, giuliani is not mincing words, right, he s making it very clear, right, he s not hiding behind what he s doing, they re doing the best defenses to say that s right, i did it, damn right, and here s why. in the new yorker, giuliani admits his role in getting rid of marie yovanovitch, in fact, saying, yeah, you re right, i was, i got rid of her. she was terrible. he said quote, i believed she needed yovanovitch out of the way. she was going to make the investigations difficult for everybody. from his own words. by the way, what were those investigations about, here s what they were about. mr. giuliani demanded that ukraine make a public statement announcing the investigations of the 2016 election dnc server and burisma. mr. giuliani also mentioned both the accusations about vice
banging was about, what that meeting was about and why it mattered so much to rudy to get out that list? i don t know the words. what was the head banging? i don t know if it works. i think the issue the trump legal team runs into is the president s legal exposure is so complex. there is obstruction. there is collusion. there is a question about whether to do an interview. and these are things that if you re going to go out and speak publicly about them, you really need to be well versed in. you need to know all the facts about them. and i think they run into trouble when they run into subjects that they don t necessarily know as well as others. these are not simple investigations. they have complex legal, you know, questions around them and about the facts. and when the homework is not done, it doesn t come out right. i bang my head, too. really quick. the point mike is making is right. they don t know everything. in fact, they don t know a lot. and so they re learning it pr
and england. it is patriot s day. there was no question there was going to be a multiple series of guilty verdicts here. in a sense, you put the statute aside. now comes the death penalty phase of the trial. now you re relying on human nature. you have 12 human beings that go to work every morning. they have in their hands life or death of a 21-year-old terrorist. and judy clarke the defense lawyer, did a magnificent job in terms of making sure that jury did not loathe the defense. congressman, to the point mike is making about death penalty and the weight that is on this jury s shoulders, this is not law in massachusetts. it is being considered in this case because of a federal permission. talk to me a little bit about
the debt? it doesn t. the problem is they re not serious. they talk in this sweeping rhetoric instead of standing up to say medicare, medicaid, defense budget. that s all we re going to talk about. how to cut those three things to get us out of this hole. mike is right. moreover, they don t talk about numbers and what does it mean to people. losing benefits, what will happen to medical care and talk in vague terms. it s a long way to go until you get to specifics. go ahead, pat. tell me how the wealthy are being asked by these people to give back to society. the point mike is making which is they were all talking about how terrible the deficit and debt are and nobody is talking about specifics is what tells me that i don t think on either side in washington, republicans on the tax side, democrats on the medicare/medicaid side, i don t think we re going to get that
