because, as we saw throughou the presidency, i think we often thought at different points when he got in troubl that [inaudible] or that washington was sort of going to hand a minute or wa going to contain him and time and time again, h blew through those now he s facing something very different than anything he s faced before in criminal charges. so how is he going to react? is he going to react in th same way he did when he sort o bulldozed the muelle investigation, bulldozed impeachment one? or is he going to be mor restrained is he going to be afraid o being hit with some sort of ga order that could stop him from talking and running his mout about this case as it goes on? that to me it will be tellin because nothing, whether it wa four star generals telling him

restore a system of checks and balances. congressman adam schiff, thank you so much for your time today. thank you. department of justice has the criminal referrals and all the evidence laid out by the january 6th committee, so exactly how and when will they decide on prosecuting trial? we will ask a lead prosecutor from the mueller investigation next. from the muelle investigation next
me george h. w. bush when he was the attorney general for him. he wanted his candidate to win reelection, he was rooting for that and believed that was part of his job as a member of the cabinet. now on the issue of the muelle investigation was a political operative, kind of a boy scout. bill barr was very firm in his belief that finding donald trump guilty of obstruction of justice was a, impossible because he was a sitting president. but accusing him of obstruction of justice even though mueller found copious evidence of it, enough that we get you and me indicted, bill barr felt strongly that mueller could not accuse him even of that based on the evidence in the investigation because under barr s thinking those crimes
