He doesn t see it as violating the law. how do you see that comment? it s ignorant of the law. up until a couple days ago, the president was unaware of the fact that you can obstruct justice even if there was no underlying crime. so the president s knowledge of the law is apparently really rather limited here. but he s not just fighting back. he said on nbc tv he fired comey because he didn t like where he was going with the russia investigation. he clearly put pressure on comey to take it easy on michael flynn. he has put pressure on a number of different people to steer away from the russia investigation. and there s two pieces to this. one, of course, is whether or not the trump campaign was involved in it. but the second one that is important beyond that, russia interfered in our election. the president continues to deny that and continues to do nothing to prevent it from happening ....
Donald trump or to discredit our system. if indeed they did hack it, what they were trying to do. i have been told that, you know, on the one hand that president obama is putting kind of a calm, no drama obama face in front of the american public but line the scenes what we are really seeing is what we saw with michelle when she was interviewed by oprah winfrey saying hope is all lost. there is a lot of sense of anger inside the white house. and i think they put the pressure on comey at the, director of the fbi to get on the team. i think knowing how comey behaves because is he a very political guy he said okay. i ll get on the team but let s actually find out whether putin really had ....
Operation in particular is doing with this tonight. i think they re doing a good job. they ve stayed on message, they ve kept pressure on comey to release more information. you know, they ve pointed out what a stupid thing this was for comby to do right before the election. i think that if jim comey wants to get involved in this election, here s a memo like russia is on a crime spree stealing emails from democrats to have an influence on this election and then releasing them. focus on that if you want to focus on emails. but don t just jump into the election and throw everything into chaos just because you can. that said, jim comey is not on the ballot. he s not a household name. picking a fight with the fbi is a hard fight to win, each if you re really good at even if you re really good at spinning the press on it. i think what the fbi did personally seems ridiculous to me. but in erms it was housewife you handle this, i don t know how you win a fight in the press against the ....
Have quite simply picked somebody else. pressure on comey. pressure on sessions. now, we have learned today that both comey and sessions have also been interviewed for hours by robert mueller. but trump s questionable pattern of behavior, again the word here pattern, when it comes to the russia probe does not end with jim comey and jeff sessions. we are learning that the fbi christopher wray hand picked choice threatened to quit because he felt so much pressure to reassign the deputy director andrew mccabe. now, trump denied that. but we know trump is putting pressure on mccabe who he feels is biased against him. started last year with this, why didn t he do this, drain the ....
Former u.s. ambassador to the u.n. fox news contributor, and a recovering lawyer. and here in washington richard good stein, a democratic strategist. and also recovering lawyer. laura: lawyer all recovering lawyers, isn t that sad. richard, let me go to you first. where am i going wrong here. this is alice in wonderland. sorry, laura, i have a loft respect for you. the fbi is number one donald trump s election. rudy giuliani put on pressure on comey to put out that letter 11 days elevate election which he had no business doing and he didn t disclose to the public the way in which the russians were trying to tilt this election, july 5th. remember went against the fbi rules. that, to me, is kind of the fundamental way in which i think you are misrepresenting. laura: july 5th press conference by comey, you think that helped trump in the end because it was a non-indictment indictment? the fbi director should have either said we have got the following charges or ....
