joining us now is congress member adam kinzinger. of the wars in iraq and afghanistan. >> good morning, alisyn. >> do you agree with senator mccain? >> that is hyperbole. he is very intelligent, obviously. one thing that is bringing a lot of questions to the front is what is going on and what is happening. it seems like every day there's some new information to pop. yesterday it was the idea of speaking and giving intelligence information. today is the idea of was there quote/unquote, cover up or attempt to cover up obstruction of justice? that is concerning. we have to get to the answers. it is not just about the politics of it. everybody is focused on the politics and what it means. when this is done, the american people need to know that justice was served. either way. whether the administration shown they actually did not do anything or whether there was something. the american people deserve the answer. >> if the president asked fbi director james comey to let the investigation go of michael flynn and that is obstruction of just

earlier i spoke to adam kinzinger who supports the decision.few republican congressmen in the house who's publicly supporting the special counsel. do you think more republicans are going to follow suit, if so, is that trouble for president trump? >> well, i think it's the right thing to do. i called for this yesterday morning. i said, look, this has gotten too partisan, basically any new put through their partisan now stripes instead of what really happened. i think you're going to see more people follow in terms of saying, hey, this is the right thing to do, let's move forward. i don't know if it's going to be trouble for the president at all. i think we need all the facts out there. either the facts are going to say when it's all said and done, there was nothing here, or there may be something there and if there is, we deserve to know about it, but my main concern right now, anderson, is not so much 2018, 2020, it's the institution of government and people have lost so much faith in it that i think for a moment, we have to put aside our parti

republican congressman adam kinzinger is a rare exception. congressman, credit where credit is due, thank you for accepting our invitation today. >> you bet. thank you. >> right to it, if director comey's account is true, did the president in your view, obstruct justice? >> okay. so i think when it comes to if the account's true, you know, what we've heard is very concerning, very frightening. we haven't seen a memo. we just hear basically part of a memo that was read and it was comey's interpretation. so i think to go to the next step of saying then what? it's pretty early. i do think, look, the american people deserve the answers. what's happened with all this information, it's become, and this is why i think it's time to have an independent investigation. because it's come to the point where anytime something new comes out, the left automatically screams impeachme impeachment. the right says this is a media scandal. this isn't true. the truth is maybe somewhere in the middle. knows. we need actual answers instead of knee jerk partisanship

house foreign affairs committee member adam kinzinger from illinois. thank you for your time and welcome back here to "america's newsroom." syria denies it. what do you think? how do you believe anything? >> well look, if i have to pick between the u.s. state department or the syrian regime of p bashar al-assad and claims he is not using guided missiles against hospitals. i go with the state department. this is a crematorium. we know from a guy named caesar, a regime guy and took pictures of tortures and murders that were occurring and brought them out and put them before my committee in congress. we know this regime basically does what the nazis did on a bit of a different scale and so this is a very serious situation. and i think one that has to be rectified or it will be the shame of our past. >> bill: suggested the snow melt on the top of that building suggests it was a crematorium. is that good enough to make that claim? >> well, look, i trust our intelligence assets a lot. i think when you look at all the information they have, we have very, very

thank you very much, adam kinzinger. good to see her. we want to go back to john roberts, standing by the white house. we understand that there has been a statement released. what can you tell us? >> good evening. this is interesting, a statement directly from the president, not from a spokesman or press secretary for the president would seem in the statement to indicate that he is completely comfortable with this, that he shows no worry about the fact that this has gone into the hands of the special prosecutor as opposed to the deputy attorney general at the department of justice. the president said, "as i have stated many times, a thorough investigation will confirm what we already know. there was no collusion between my campaign at any foreign entity. i look forward to this matter concluding quickly. in the meantime, i will never stop fighting for the people and the issues that matter most to the future of our country." the statement before, the sentence before that last sentence, "i look forward to this matter concluding quickly," fi

republican congressman adam kinzinger sits on the foreign affairs committee, i spoke to him a short time the fbi director saying that it made him feel rather sick to think the fbi might have influenced the election, you think it did? the president says it helped hillary clinton, hillary clinton says it helped the president. from this perspective he says we are independent, and so i think he obviously has some kind of heartache about the idea that maybe heartache about the idea that maybe he had an effect. there's no that russian —— russia tried to influence the election as they will try to do around the world. we need to get to the bottom four of what really happened and move on and make sure we guard against that in future elections. he was questioned repeatedly be about why he released the information about the clinton investigation but not above the russian investigation into people surrounding president trump and his campaign. where you convinced by his answer? i trust him implicitly, campaign. where you convinced by his answer? itrust him implicitly, i think he's a very good person

coming off of twitter, adam kinzinger saying this about the whole situation -- i think we are at a pointhere it is time for a independent commission or special prosecutor or whatever. the associated press reporting that president vladimir putin dismisses the scandal involving trump sharing intelligence with russia as schizophrenia. putin said russia is willing to hand over records of president trump's talks with mr. lab rob. l --avrov. tom in ohio, independent line. caller: i don't believe this memo is anything other than a frame. if you look at the way he talked in the memo, it was him asking a question. i think the democrats are trying to force their agenda after they lost the agenda. saying the waye the president said what he said does not necessarily suggest anything on the level of obstruction of justice? caller: i think he was asking a simple question as he was coming into the office, if the memo is true. if the memo was true, he was just asking a question saying, i ,now this guy, he is a good guy is there any way this will go away? i think the democrats have russian drum until the
