muller was head of the f.b.i. and did missed all of this clinton foundation for aught when he was head of the f.b.i. so it's just it's really an embarrassing chapter i gree with the. this needs to end and the people who got this trial together the show trial together rod rosenstein mahler and others the tables need to be flipped yeah and some believe that most primary goal in the trial is simply the pressure and money for it so he would provide information about rushing collusion with the trump campaign how do you see it playing out i actually think you know this is an enormous waste of money in my view it is a gross miscarriage of justice it's setting for a lot of bad precedents and so it must be corrected i think in the end this trial judge judge ellis is a remarkable individual he's being very tough on both sides but particularly on mahler i think the metaphor is likely to skate here i think that the special counsel is likely to be told to stand down and then i think there's going to be a wholesale housecleanin

muller recommended lenient treatment for flynn for cooperating but the language from the judge wasn't quite the same why do you think he got such short shrift in the courtroom. worley the judge's opinion his own the if it comes in the context of subversion of american democracy and link what happened to flynn with the proceeding feature article on your program that is the treatment of three some may in both cases you have the american political system in the british political system first past the post and whoever wins wins in the united states today whoever wins loses and that is what we're seeing the opposition the democrats and certain members of his own party haven't are doing everything possible to frustrate the will of the people and to subvert the pope or to prevent the implementation of the public policies for which donald trump was elected flynn was within the administration the most visible supporter of improved relations with russia a your your introduction a moment ago mentioned the flynns sitting at the table with bloody murder putin that was in december two thousand and

special counsel robert muller and he's been of course investing investigating for over a year now the trump russia collusion and the main defendant looks to be st petersburg based internet research agency and they're alleged to have a goal to sow discord in the united states and interfere in the u.s. presidential election back in two thousand and sixteen interestingly enough also on the list of the accused is a catering company and that can be found there apparently they were used to help fund the whole scheme and well ok if you're a company all right the justice department explained how the accused truly meddled well there are a few details within the thirty seven page document the parties in question are said to have formulated plans in order to support donald trump and disparage hillary clinton and the number of different ways the methods range from organizing political rallies to posing as grass or campaigns there are allegations that russians travel to the united states posing as americans and trying to influence other americans to join them and whatever their goals were and some

special counsel robert muller and he's of course been investigating the trump russian occlusion for about a year now and one of the main defendants looks to be the st petersburg based internet research agency and it's alleged that their goal was to sow discord in the u.s. political system and cause doubts throughout the country including interfering in of course the two thousand and sixteen presidential election on the list of those indicted there can also be found a catering car company among them there apparently to have at least partially funded the schemes that were concocted by these by the defendants and the idea of course is not left unanswered by russia the spokesperson for the russian foreign ministry said that signalling out these thirteen nationals was absurd let's listen tens out there with thirteen of them according to the u.s. justice department fifteen people were mentioning in the u.s. election against the billions on the budgets of the intelligence agencies against the intelligence counted teligent against the state of the art technology so upset yes but this is america's

i think i think what the white house ought to recognize and the american people should robert muller is a serious cop on a serious mission leading a criminal investigation into the trump administration on two fronts whether they will maybe three one certainly whether they were helping the russians in what we know the russians were doing to influence the election to whether by firing james comey or some other stuff donald trump obstructed justice and three whether there are some financial shot. shine and again that's with the trump empire and by the way i think this is where a hard question could get caught. that could end up being criminal activity so i tell you what i think the message is overall i get robert mueller is on a serious mission he's got a top notch staff this thing is in high gear it's not going to end anytime soon and it is going all the way to the oval office bill is all those thanks for your time today covered a lot of ground larry good to be with you thank you bill and thank you the audience for joining me on this edition of politicking remember you can join the con

justice department and robert muller now in early february trump block the release of the democratic party's rebuttal citing national security concerns but the republican memo claimed that the f.b.i. improperly obtained a warrant to spy on the trump campaign civically quarter page under fisa the foreign intelligence surveillance act democrats however disagree saying that the f.b.i. did not abuse fisa that it would have been wrong and not to obtain a fisa warrant considering it was the f.b.i. who believed carter page to be a russian agent so interesting times we live in democrats are now defending the f.b.i. but after the memo was released from tweeted the democratic memo responds on government surveillance of us this is a total political and legal bust just confirms all of the terrible things that were done so illegal but the white house has already responded calling the memo a politically driven attempt to undercut trump and once again reiterating that trump never colluded with a foreign government during the election. now it's not sure how republicans will respond to this but it wi

but she did if robert muller i don't see how robert mueller can conclude his investigate by the way the other thing the president said in that news conference with the prime minister of norway was there's no collusion no collusion no collusion everybody agrees everybody knows that's not true that robert mueller has not made that finding and we don't know what he's got so trump keeps saying that it's not true i don't see how muller can complete his investigation without talking to the president number one and number two i don't see how if muller the special counsel request a meeting with the president the united states is the chief target of this investigation i don't see how the white house can refuse that i'm not a lawyer but i think they would have to come to terms with it maybe they'll try to limit it say it's got to be you know no cameras or it's got to be secret or only certain questions are allowed but i think you're going to see in the white house robert mueller sit down with donald trump where you see this whole thing going on here here's what my guess is and there's everybody i

servers it's believed does that mean that special concert robert muller somehow did . it's possible that he did in the. investigations like this america has many things to be proud of than we used to used to be possible to say but are just a justice system for neither foul nor favor with somebody because of his or her political persuasion under barack obama maybe arguably before that that has changed the well connected in this country seize on to opportunities to forge relationships with either major political party this investigation of russia gate into the very beginning screams and reeks to high heaven and it's in frankly an embarrassment and i think it's reached a point where robert muller has to put up or shut up and even after he gets done doing that after the thing winds down the american people on the russian people in the wider world deserve to understand whose interests are being served by heightening tensions between the united states and russia who is benefiting from that i don't think the russian people benefit i know the american people don't benefit i th

muller then head of the f.b.i. so the media presents that this is because of trump's tweets of pressure on sessions when in fact the f.b.i. recommended he go the inspector general report that session's has been privy to from the d.o.j. also apparently is recommending that he go and don't forget that the head of the f.b.i. a couple of months ago demoted mccabe based on what he knew mccabe had done and all you hear from the left and from the media is they treated this poor guy like a black junk and they took his pension away and now you've got democratic congressman stepping up and saying oh he can come work for me so he could get his pension it is a world god mad well you know steve i have to wonder and this is a real question can you draw a federal pension if you're in jail because that's where he belongs. let me let me go let me go to bruce here let me go to bruce here i actually i stole that line from ray mcgovern in one piece that he wrote yesterday. bruce you know what we have now is you know we had mccabe fire
