intelligence and heads of the cia, fbi and national security agency will brief the president-elect on alleged russian meddling in the presidential election, certainly he has called repeatedly challenged. he said, well, maybe it s not the case, maybe even sided with julian assange tweeting even last night questioning the validity of the information he s about to receive. well, we have it all covered for you from every angle. kristen welker, what do we expect will go down here? reporter: the backdrop to this briefing is very tense, that s for sure. you have the president-elect just last night again questioning the intelligence community. he was infuriated after details leaked out about the report and actually what s in the report and intelligence officials telling us that some of the details in the report include intercepts which prove that top russian officials were celebrating president-elect trump s win. we were also learning they ve identified some of the go-betweens who deliv ....
Mueller s statements and certainly the tone of his voice that if not for that olc guideline we would have had donald trump charged with counts of obstruction of justice, so given that, given that the special counsel is now officially concluded and is now resigning, i believe that the ball is clearly in our court. the next step, and just to be clear, i ve called not for a rush to vote on impeachment but the official beginning of impeachment hearings, so that way we can go through what s in the report. we can further investigate where the report didn t go, and i know i m going on here, but this is an important point. in the watergte case in 73- 74, the congressional investigations found things that the special counsel did not. for example, the bugging system in the white house, the tapes. but congressman that came through congressional hearings, not the special counsel, so now it is on ....
Fbi more than three hours. i think it s important to note. you played the sound from senator feinstein, from senator mcconnell. you re going to hear in 10, 15 minutes from republicans who make very clear they believe the report clears brett kavanaugh, there s no corroboration. and democrats say the report didn t go nearly far enough. that s where they stand. for 95 senators, that s where they stand. it s all about zeroing on those five senators who are undecided. while there have been some positive signs, the reality is the votes and commitments are not there and likely wouldn t be until the senators finish doing their work throughout the course of this day. you are staying on top of it. meantime, the president opted not to stop to speak with reporters as he headed out to a campaign rally in minneapolis. sara westwood joins us at the white house. the white house may be sensitive to not rock the boat as senators ....
I have no doubt as the senate reads it, we will hear the rumbleings good and bad. this is important because we talked about the vault and the there s no vault strong enough. one thing people have to understand is the report didn t go from the fbi directly to the senate. the white house knows what is it in. i have no idea the white house team, they are pouring through the reports and they are trying to figure out how they will respond to it. are you suggesting that s not a vault, the white house communications? i will make this point. there s nothing in here to corroborate ford s story. i think if they had rock solid statements those might have leaked. the best way of saying the evidence is in your favor is to release all the evidence, and if it s not you are trying to hide something, particularly with this crowd. in the debate over judge ....
If this intelligent report is indeed unimpeachable. it s him showing you what he s going to say. he s telling the times he thinks this is a political witch hunt. this is donald trump, the next president of the united states basically saying he s an assignment editor here upset about the amount of coverage that news organizations are giving to this, basically saying it s sour grapes. in that interview with my friend over there at the new york times, michael sheer, great job getting donald trump on the phone saying the chinese hacked the white house, there wasn t that much attention there. it says two times in the interview this is a political witch hunt. we are going to get this report, the public version of it within the hour we thing. we ve already heard from nancy pelosi. and pelosi seemed a little upset the report didn t go farther. going forward i think we ll have two conversations, one, what trump wants it to be and that is is there too much information on this and how unassaila ....
