they realize this investigation real and serious and potentially dealing with criminal activity here for the fbi on conduct such a dramatic raid on the manafort apartment. and senator blumenthal, if there is a next shoe to drop here, where are you looking? i would be looking to potential plea agreements involving manafort or michael flynn. they seem to be the most vulnerable right now. but i also unfortunately would be looking to additional trump threats. he s called it a witch hunt and a home. he is trying to draw red lines around financial dealings, other kinds of intimidation and this raid redoubles my determination to support legislation that will frequent special counsel. it reaffirms the reason that i called for spounl with the powers to do what he has done in
special counsel from possible termination by the president? is there any activity like that in the house? in the house judiciary committee, believe it or not, we tried a couple weeks ago, a person from washington wanted to get some oversight on the investigation. and her effort was hijacked by the republicans and they took the legislation to have more oversight and more guardrails in place. what was brought out of the committee baltimore the spounl should be brought up to investigate hillary clinton and the e-mail incident. it is just remarkable, what they take away as being important. so no. tow you have tom tillis, a republican from north carolina, not associated with any kind of never trump fashion in politics. he is on board for this. i think lindsey graham as well. you re not seeing that. we re still waiting for

colleagues about exactly this topic houflt to protect the integrity and independence of the spounl. let me say very bluntly. the president of the united states firing bob mueller would be an historic admission of guilt without a scintilla of cause. to fire a special prosecutor whose career is beyond reproach, and who has engaged in absolutely nothing challengeable, would be an historic admission of guilt. this investigation will go forward. the remarks that you heard from senator graham a clear reflection of a growing sense on both sides of the aisle that there need to be efforts to protect the integrity and independence of the department of justice, most particularly
house. here s what we learned in the briefing room. i want to go back tom last clip you played. he was smooth, glib, charming. you can tell with scaramucci, trump wanted a peer or a strategy i. things are too far gone to dismiss the russian investigation as hoax. the spounl is calling witnesses, investigating, looking for document stories that come out every night. so scaramucci has to come out with something better than name calling if he wants to steer attention away from the focus on the russian investigation or somehow diminish it. you can t pretend this is not happening. he might want to go through glass. they won t do it now. there s an investigation. there s something taking place.
