9:39 am
wasting time to all american people. they need to start working under report, right now there is number. dixon, o to terry illinois. hi, go ahead. caller: hi, how are you doing? yeah, i've been follow two sgiving story and lied on a kushner security form fwe would have done that, each one would have five-year imprisonment, his meeting was on june 9 of last year, 4:00 that afternoon ust so happen the president, mr. trump, was tweeting about the 3000 e-mails. think the american people need to ask what did donald trump when did he know it. i think donald trump knew about his meeting and i think this
9:40 am
our s to collusion between government and a foreign basically which is our income. and i'm sorry, i stand for the flag of the united regardless ofica, what party you are, we need to get to the bottom of this. involved, he was needs to be held accountable. no man is above the law. you. host: "new york times" story goes on to say two people briefed on the meeting intermediary, a journalist and he president of a company called we too entertainment that orked with the miss america pageant. mark carello, said on sunday the was not aware of and did not attend the meeting. refer to mr. kushner the statement made earlier confirming he voluntarily meeting, but deferred questions to donald
9:41 am
trump jr. donald trump jr. said he asked kushner tord and mr. attend, about the didn't tell was about.he meeting juliet. caller: i'm calling because we re not -- most of america is confused about this situation within, one thing about it, last had two people running, liars and because they lied about it, one of the liars the winner and the other liar became the loser. it is. is just the way that is just how it is. goes well.ything next up from rutmond, virginia. caller: yeah, i just called a gentleman brought up a point i've been wondering. we're talking about this russia
9:42 am
media is causing this frenzy, what about all the before?that happened obama, the scandals, i mean, obama and his rampant, the ran visit on the plane, nobody minutes and that 45 the resident, going down tube. nobody is talking about those meanwhile america is going on the troops. i think our media and i'm media from all the fox to cnn, needs to start telling the truth instead of lying. so thank you for your time. host: one people reacting to the house intelligence committee ranking member on cnn union, talked about this meeting that took place etween donald trump, jr., and
9:43 am
others, here is what he had to say. >> it certainly raises questions the variety of reasons, president's son denied having any kind of meeting like this, had claim the meeting nothing to do with the campaign and yet the trump campaign invited to come to the meeting and there is no russian r this government advocate to be manafortor mr.aul kushner or the president's son if it wasn't about the campaign russia policy. trying to --y were suggesting this was contrived maybe by hillary clinton, also we n't make sense, so yes, need to get to the bottom of it. that mean calling donald trump, jr. before your committee investigating this?
9:44 am
think we will want to question everyone at that meeting about what was by trying to frame it about adoption ignore what is it may haveke the meeting been around, the act which is with powerful sanction legislation that goes gainst russian human rights abusers, if this was effort to do away with that sanctions policy, that is obviously very significant, if they are talking to the president's team, andidate trump's team contradicts what the president and his people have said about meeting with ere any representative of the russian government. host: "new york times" report is unclear if the russian awyer actually produced the promised compromising information about mrs. clinton. the people interviewed by the about the meeting said expectation is that she would do so. lone in red springs,
9:45 am
north carolina. yes, sir. to cnn, and ng all the time news -- all n't know why democrat s for the party president trump go ahead his job and so we could get our country on the way. your mind, lone, this is not a situation worth covering then? exactly. you know, we got so much false news. cnn, sometime and watch msnbc and every time, every time turn the television on, it it is trump, why
9:46 am
thank you is not an issue? caller: well, i mean, it has for the last several months and just add more more to it. i don't think it would have meeting to do with him someone about adoption. i don't see where that could our country. ost: go to hattie in texas, democrats line. caller: hello. on.: hello, you're caller: yes, sir, the reason why wonder why is i it that, he's president of the he, youtates and why is know, they let him get away with everything? is tied to this. t could be fake, like the gentleman said, fake news just a few minutes ago. be fake news when so many, with the russian thing do with the thing
9:47 am
and now saying he was fraud overse hillary clinton got three million votes more than he i just don't understand if the united states, you know, some of the republicans that call in, they back get our country again. look like me, he is carrying our russia and to everything like that. the united states was very critical. now i don't know what to do here. this is so terrible here. let's be honest, there is with everybody that he's, you know, his know, law, his son, you he's gone and everything, what is going on. wayne, independent from nebraska. wayne. yeah, this is

9:49 am
i've never seen anything like this in my life. the republicans should ashamed of themselves, they are drunk with power and going on.verything trump and his family, they have in things i've never seen my entire life. ridiculous.is host: what do you think is significant about this story? well, i think it's would go heard of he to russia and have a private meeting during the campaign election season. host: it was actually done at tower. caller: okay. but still, that in itself, you it is something unheard of. president had done something like that, then it would be all over the newspapers
9:50 am

9:51 am
it.of as far as nondisclosure, jared in disclosure prematurely and since amended t, that is disclosed, it was a nothing meeting. what is developing from the meeting, if you look at the circa put out, the individual that set up the meeting may have been affiliateed with fusion gps, opposition research firm that is talked to enaed and by the senate judiciary committee about their role in that phony ther dociatthis, is a developing story, this seems to be on the individual, big nothing burger, but may spin out of control for the d.n.c. and democrats. >> two aspects of that, in terms f the d.n.c., are you suggesting this was somehow a setup by democrats to try to them hem or compromise with the russians and this was russian ere was any
9:52 am
interference in the election, why would they have done that? why was fusion gps involved in put thanksgiving together? i don't now, chris, think too many people know why or how this meeting came about. tell you, at i can from my communication with our team, on this subject, there was nothing to it, there was a meeting, it ended after everyone was say thering is nothing happening here, they on and i think in the end, what you will find in the story, column, more a questions on the democrats side than anywhere else. last question about the meeting. why would donald trump, jr., kushner and the campaign chairman want to meet with a russian awyer about adoption? >> i have no idea, chris, you will have to talk to them. talking about issues of foreign policy, issues relating to our
9:53 am
lace in the world, issues important to the american people like adoption, something not unusual. campaign, o through a the united states talking to not just one particular group of eople in this case about adoption in russia, you have policy teams talking about trade asia and china. unusual?was >> apparently so. host: next to brenda in illinois. independent line. hi, brenda, good morning. caller: hello. go ahead.re on, caller: oh, yes, i just wanted respected every president, whether i voted for them or not. -- host: brenda, you're still on, go ahead. you.r: oh, thank okay. president.d every host: brenda, what we'll do, put youon hold and that way, if wouldn't mind turning down your television, we can have less
