when we saw the intelligence committee holding these hearings, dichb nunes, jim jordan, their lines of questions were not particularly effective. you saw them giving freebies to the other side and teeing up soft balls for the democrats there. so if the president really want a robust defense for himself like clinton, like nixon, why wouldn t he put his people before the judiciary committee to try to do whatever he can to defend himself? let me ask you about the split-screen. this is all going to be happening while the president is overseas, look back at the last few weeks at these public hearings. there wasn t engagement, then there was. deluge of tweets late in the night. help us understand how that s going to look with him conducting the official business of this country with an alliance with other world leaders while this is happening back home. we talk about engagement in the hearing room, this shows an actual geographic distance?
giuliani went in early and sent a message to ukraine before that phone call, that this is what we want if you want your money. and democrats also say this guy lev parnes, associate of giuliani will say just that and will say in may, giuliani, months before the phone call, went there and set the whole thing up. what s the defense for that? well, look, it s very hard to prove a quid pro quo when the person on the other side, the one who is supposedly supposed to do some kind of favor, says, well, i didn t see a quid pro quo. of course, that s what the president of ukraine says. it s also interesting in this case remember, what the president was concerned with was corruption in the ukraine over the self-dealings and profiteering of the biden family. once again, schiff refusing to allow hunter biden to be called. if there was nothing unethical in what biden was doing there, why wouldn t he want to testify
release. if you re going to say, well, we re not going to talk about our findings because it doesn t reach a criminal threshold that s a mistake because this is answering a counterintelligence question. what did russia do with us? and to what extent was our president involved in that? and that s not criminal. and what i m watching carefully for is what i m going to call a speaking declination. mr. president, we have good news, the good news, we chose not to seek your indictment. the bad news is, we re going to explain everything we found and it s going to be really, really ugly. so you re on the lookout for that, you think we could end up with something along those lines? i think if we look at mueller s strategy to speak to us through indictments which were incredibly detailing, why wouldn t he explain his declination. and the declination.
officials that this event happened in june of 2017 just after mueller was set up as the special counsel is going to look at this as part of a potential pattern of obstruction of justice. remember, you ve got a month before comey was fired by the president and before that, the president asked for a loyalty oath from comey. some where in the middle of that, he suggested to comey, go easy on mike flynn. so the idea that there were serious consideration, whether it was an order or just talk to fire robert mueller is something that you have to figure robert mueller will pay attention to. shepard: why wouldn t he? this matter of an interview with the president, much has been discussed on this the last couple days, whether he would be under oath or not. doesn t seem to matter. if you re being interviewed by the fbi, you have to tell the truth. aside from that, are they working on the rules for this sort of thing? do we know? absolutely. we re told that the president s
