e-mails. and then the letters comey sent to the hill, one saying we found more e-mails on anthony weiner s laptop that could be pertinent to our investigation, we need to look at those, and then his follow-up letter a few days before the election in which he said, we ve done that review and we haven t had anything. hillary clinton herself has said she thinks that first letter in late october changed the course of the election. so, the inspector general is going to look at that and a couple of ancillary things. there have been allegations that an fbi deputy director should have taken himself off part of this case because of some connections to the campaign or his wife s connections to the political to politics in virginia. some allegations that an assistant attorney general for legislative affairs passed information along to the clinton campaign, and other employees disclosed nonpublic information. the foeklecal point is the two actions by the fbi director, the letter to the hill ....
this is so far looking at the re-elect, they seem to have a rule about who has the legal fees paid for by campaign donors. you have to be named donald trump. did good thing for the trump family is they have two of those guys. two people. junior and senior. ivanka needs anything, uh-huh. kushner, do you get any money? exactly. poor mike pence, next week, is going to be raising money for the trump re-election fund. he s raised money for his own pac and donated that money to the trump re-election fund paying for junior s legal fees and mike pence pays for his own. the funniest part is he then has to sell the plasma to help jared and the other non donald trump family members pay their legal fees. running out of blood. yeah. you know that the president s going to volunteer him. tap mike. he s healthy. the paler he looks, the more he s pumping into the trump family legal fees. thank you. have a great weekend. thank you. you too. all right. i m in for launs o donne ....
the fact is that we don t need a direction from the president to the intelligence chiefs to be on guard against russian interference with our elections, number one. number two, as far as what the president says on any given day, frankly he says a lot of things. he is, i think, campaigning against impeachment rather than saying anything that is designed to affect the outcome of the case. so i kind of brush that off. but to go back to your first point, that we don t need the president for the intelligence community. that s a little counterintuitive. we expect the leadership from the president to be of paramount importance when we re dealing with threats like this, which to the democracy is basically existential. so for him to not be on the same page seems to be highly counterproductive. it s counterproductive, but it is not at all necessarily critical. these intelligence agencies, particularly in an administration where statements get made all the time, i think are pretty mu ....
Chris Cuomo asks the tough questions to newsmakers in Washington and around the world. rosenstein look, jeff sessions he recused himself. had to have recused himself because there s a regulation in place that says if you work on a campaign and there s a criminal investigation relating to that campaign the president says it was a bum move and he should have told him about it and it was a total hoodwink. wrong, wrong, wrong. as far as it being a hoodwink, sessions would have had to have had the gift of prophecy along with the president in order to believe at the time he was ainterest poed, there was was going to be to an investigation that s why i was confused by your initial writings on this one because of my respect for your mind and that rosenstein the only thing he could do is get a prophylactic in play, get somebody who had one layer away from the president, which technically a special counsel does, because otherwise he could have been fired like that ....
