but —— monica lewinsky phaselj specifically requested. but —— monica lewinsky phase.ased on monica lewinsky. you were at the time attacked by democrats. it became pa rt attacked by democrats. it became part of what was known as a right wing conspiracy. robert mueller is being attacked at the moment by republicans, he is being called bias, but it is part of the witch and, as he biased? i do not think so. and, as he biased? i do not think so. i have great regard for robert mueller but i do have concerns about some of the agents at the fbi who we re some of the agents at the fbi who were 011 some of the agents at the fbi who were on the investigation, and two of them are known of. but also concerns have been raised about eight senior lawyer who was a very avid hillary clinton divorcee. —— devotee. but in our tradition the prosecutor comes from the opposite political party. selected for that reason among others, you do not want somebody from the president's all party investigating the president. that makes perfect sense. the president's council said today that the preside

i mean, with the monica lewinsky thing, she was a subpoenaed witness in the paula jones lawsuit.ember, the supreme court voted 9-0 and said the lawsuit should go forward. it was a legitimate legal process. and that's what turns it, you know, turned it into -- >> michael cohen denies there is any inappropriate relationship with stormy daniels, and cohen also released a statement in which she denies having sex with the president. so why do you think this story hasn't blown up? >> first of all, they did not deny the $130,000 payment. that's what leapt out at me. if nothing had happened, why did money change hands? and if money didn't change hands, why didn't they deny that money had changed hands? so that's the first sort of red flag that leaps out. of course, as stormy daniels had talked to others and confirmed that she had had a sexual relationship with donald trump and then after the $130,000 payment, she said she did not have a sexual relationship with donald trump. so there are legitimate reasons to be somewhat skeptical about some of these public statements. >> i think you wer

you started with a fraud and financial dealings investigation and ended up with monica lewinsky. do you think the same could happen with donald trump and the mueller investigation, that we start with collusion and end up with something totally different? ken: it is conceivable but not likely, and one of the reasons is i think there is greater control by the justice department over the course of this investigation, whereas the whole idea of the statute under which i served was the investigation is "independent." the justice department had certain input in terms of, for example, the controversial lewinsky phase, was specifically requested by attorney general janet reno, who was appointed by president clinton. but the grant of authority to bob mueller in this particular investigation strikes me as more limited, focused on russian collusion as opposed to any evidence that might come to him. katty: i'm going to date myself here -- i remember exactly where i was the day the starr report was released, sitting and reading it in washington. you were at the time attacked by democrats and b

president clinton was subpoenaed in the lewinsky investigation.t's possible president trump could be subpoenaed here. >> last june, he said, 100%, he would be willing to testify. based on everything you're hearing, you covered the white house for us. is he preparing for the possibility of having to sit down with mueller? >> it certainly didn't seem like that from his answer we heard today. the white house has repeatedly said that they believe this investigation is coming to an end, even though they have provided no basis for why they believe that. but we know that trump's lawyers are preparing for this chance, that they will be asked or it will be requested that the president does sit down with the special counsel. and they're preparing for that. and another source said that they do not believe this investigation will come to an end until the president and mueller have spoken, but you can see what a source of frustration this is becoming for the president. not that it already wasn't, but how much it has increased, especially his body language in t

grand jury via video link from the white house during ken starr investigation including the monica lewinsky scandal. let me get your reaction on a conversation between president and the then acting fbi director andrew mccabe. shortly after james comey's firing last year. the president asked mccabe who he voted for in the 2016 election. does that worry you? >> deeply. look, the notion that some of your guests, that this was just a casual conversation. and people do it in small talk. let's not forget the context. the fbi director comey had just been fired in part because of the russia thing and because he didn't swear loyalty to the president. it is in that context that mr. mckab is summoned to the white house and asked this question. completely inappropriate. another remind per this president, the oath is to serve the people of the country and the constitution. not to serve the person of the president of the united states. it is another example of not understanding the fbi, the department of justice, do not work for the individual donald trump. they boriwork for the american people and the c

here he is in a later deposition testifying about his relationship with monica lewinsky. look here. >> when i was alone with miss lewinsky on certain occasions in early 1996 and once in early 1997, i engaged in conduct that was wrong. >> yeah, president jimmy carter testified under oath numerous time for a criminal conduct investigation involving his brother, billy and financial improprieties at the carter's family peanut warehouse, shep. >> shepard: and republican presidents as well, right? >> yeah. long history. all the way back to abraham lincoln that voluntarily testified before the house judiciary committee during an investigation of a white house leak to a newspaper reporter. in modern times president reagan responded to written questions concern ago special counsel investigation in the iran contra inquiry. after leaving office, mr. reagan gave videotaped testify in the iran contra trial of his national security adviser, john poindexter. watch. >> i only recall learning that there had been at some point a shipment of hawk missiles by israel to iran. >> president ger

the '96 one sticks out in my mind because the lewinsky scandal had just broken.ed how is he going to be able to get up there and deliver his speech in that environment? most people wouldn't even be able to get out of bed with the tension that's mounting. he went up there and he pulled it off. in fact, i think his numbers actually went up briefly after that. it was an amazing performance, and it just shows the clinton compartmentalization -- >> and the clinton charisma. there are few politicians on either side of the aisle that would be able to pull that off. and this is, to be fair, a very different situation with the president coming up, first of all, with the congress led by his own party. >> right, and you have to sort of imagine, looking back at that nixon clip, imagine a scenario tonight where president trump says exactly those words but just substituting it, the so-called russia investigation. i'm also just curious in that hypothetical what kind of reception he would get even from his own colleagues. would they really be standing up to give him applause? >>

in fact in the clinton whitewater lewinsky investigation, lewinsky was interviewed three times for over nine hours, and mostly in the white house without the presence of his attorneys, and i think that will be the template that mueller will follow in this case. >> under oath? >> under oath. >> clinton got subpoenaed by the grand jury, and we know how that went. if i am trump's personal lawyer, i say hold on, this is not bill clinton and this man is not the target of your investigation, why does he have to be under oath? if you want to speak to him, we will figure it out, but no oath or recording. do i get it? >> i think you would get it because if an fbi agent is present for the interview, which is what i would expect, and fbi agents are always -- >> let's make sure people understand. even if i am not under oath, if an fbi agent is in the room and i say something that is untrue it goes from a lie to a crime? >> that's correct. if it's material to the investigation, in other words, if it matters, if you lie about what you ate for breakfast that day, not a crime, but if you are lying abou

report alleging that then-president clinton was in a relationship with white house intern monica lewinskime something much larger, of course. and eventually threatened his presidency. that story that era, launched a lot of new media, much of it on the right, quickly countered by media on the left. several things are new today, among them the notion of regular attacks on the free press by the president. that's new. that continued tonight by the way as the gop posted fake awards on the web for what they see as fake news coverage over the past year. once again we are surrounded by talk of scandal in our news. and make no mistake, another presidency has been threatened by it from charges of sexual misconduct, accusations of collusion with a foreign government, accusations of obstruction of justice. so how does it differ this time around, and how is the white house responding? to talk about it we welcome to our broadcast tonight john harris, veteran journalist who covered politics for "the washington post" for over two decades, notably the bill clinton white house from '95 to '01. went on to w

>> in the bill clinton case, this was just after the lewinsky scandal broke.was exactly 20 years ago this month. a lot of people were saying, what is he going to say about the subject that is on everyone's mind? you know, some people, pretty unrealistically thought he would talk about resignation. bill clinton gave this enormous long speech, never mentioned the scandal, talked about social security and his numbers went up. >> his numbers went up. we could see that with president trump. president trump, on friday, didn't address artificial intelligence or income equality. in a room where business leaders are paramount, he talked about tax cuts and the market and people like it. how important are president trump's words? we are living in an era where we say it doesn't matter. think about fdr, the freedom speech in 1941. this is a moment. could it be a moment for the president or, in the world of trump, there are no moments? >> this thin this case, it will have that affect. you are talking fdr. everyone was trained to talk about the slightest knnuance. in 1941, h

you've told "the new york times" that bill clinton should have resigned over the lewinsky affair. >>t is that the tolerance that we had 25 years ago, what was allowed 25 years ago will not be tolerated today, is not allowed today and that we have to have the kind of oversight and accountability that society needs so that we can protect people in the workplace, so people can function without having an unsafe work environment, whether it's in the military or -- >> so you're saying president trump has created an unsafe workplace in the white house? >> no. i'm saying that the conversation we're having is very important and the behaviors tolerated a long time ago are not tolerated and, in fact, all of us need to recognize none of us are above this and all of us have to be responsible for how we create a workplace in our own office, for my office, how we do our oversight in congress with providing better oversight over the military, which is our job, with title 9 on college campuses. so we have to do our job. we are all responsible and we all have to understand that time has changed a he w

think back 20 years ago last week, this week was the monica lewinsky scandal breaking.t an earth shattering revelation that was. we're having monica lewinsky level scandals this, this many in one week. >> the government hadn't shut down a week ago this hour. >> you've done some of the best analysis of the president's twitter feed. you understand better than anyone what his inputs are, what his outputs are. speak about whether this is volume business or life inside his bubble. >> there is this illusion brought up many times when mr. burns goes into the doctor, the doctor tell him he has literally everything. that's okay, everything is in balance. it's a great little scene. to the point you're making, what are you going to blackmail trump on? literally the number five item on that list is covered up sex with a porn star. what's going to come out that is worse than that and more damning? >> but, yes, if you're going to deal with the stormy whatever -- >> daniels. >> yes, daniels. >> or stephanie clifford. >> the difference is that according to what we're told, the payment

they didn't challenge him on the lewinsky stuff, now there's remorse on that. evangelicals are saying he's in our corner on a lot of issues, so we're not going to challenge him on this kind of stuff. so they're going to have some problems with that with their membership, because at what cost? at what cost? >> jim sciutto, how do you see it? >> listen, i don't know what reality we're living in, that it's such a small story relative to all the stuff that's going on. listen, it's -- for a portion of his base, it's never going to be an issue no matter what he does. the president has said as much. but even beyond the base, it may just be the reality is, with trump, the standard is lower for this kind of personal character stuff in the public eye. and even the folks who don't like trump so much may not be so surprised by it. and it's not what they're focusing on. >> i would just add to that, with the base, also there's a part of the base that i think would see an fec investigation or a trial as an attack on the president by the deep state or establishment over someth

lewinsky. you wrote, the president made and caused to be made false statements to the american people about his relationship with ms. lewinsky. by publicly and emphatically stating in january 1998 that i did not have sexual relations with that woman and these allegations are false. the president also effectively delayed a possible congressional inquiry. this represents substantial and credible information that may constitute grounds for an impeachment. if the reports are correct that president trump sought to have mueller fired, then his public denial would be false. so would that be grounds for impeachment? >> i think lying to the american people is a serious issue that has to be explored. i take lying to the american people very, very seriously. so, absolutely. i think -- what dan was talking about was this effort to get rid of the investigation. you're now talking about something called lying to the american people. i think that is something that bob mueller should look at. >> dan, a final t

words for monica lewinsky, but if you sleep with my husband, you will have some choice words from mee told her best friend. >> either she leaves the husband or she decides to support the husband. >> she can stay married to him, but she doesn't have to enable his political career. not every husband has to run for president. that was the compromising choice she made. she was like, i'm all in on this, and you have done these things that were wrong -- >> if every man that -- >> that were embarrassing to both of us, and as a political operation, we have to defeat them. >> if every man that cheated -- this is such an old story. but if every man that cheated could not run for president, we'd have a lot fewer presidents. >> we'd have had a woman president a lot sooner if that were the standard. i'm glad that you're on your high horse because now you can get to defend this next proposition. when harvey weinstein came out, he never held any position within the dnc, but he gave a lot of money to democrats, period. you guys were on -- boom, right away the gop came out on twitter and elsewhere sa

it's the day ken starr wired for the monica lewinsky.hat's the last time a president was impeached. it's worth remembering the critical moment in that scandal was ken starr, the independent counsel, subpoenaed bill clinton and forced him to testify. so the question now with mueller is, if trump dodges and resists a voluntary interview, will mueller do what ken starr did and subpoena the president? >> michael, let me ask you from 30,000 feet since you've been through this before, where are we in this investigation? you have two of the president's men who pled guilty to federal crimes and are now cooperating with the investigation and two of the president's men charged with federal crimes and facing possibly a lifetime in prison. where do you think we are in this investigation, in this scandal? >> if you take things under a microscope, you've got to put the manafort-gates stuff off to the side. that involves conduct that doesn't directly involve donald trump or his campaign. the two wild cards are michael flynn and george papadopoulos, bot

you wound up with monica lewinsky. do you believe bob mueller is too far afield by any indication? >> not from what i have seen? i have seen no evidence of obstruction. let me make this very clear. but we don't know what bob mueller knows. the jury is out. he's finding out facts. so my view is let him do his job, as the president has said and his counsel has been very clear that he is going to not interfere with the orderly conduct of the investigation. so we're behind the pale of ignorance. we just don't know. >> the idea that the president directly or indirectly or through thirds tried to get sessions not to recuse himself. what does that mean to you legalitily, if true? >> legally, it is not significant. that is, i've heard people say and it's been suggested that it actually is initial evidence of obstruction of justice. i totally disagree with that. the president has every right through his counsel or whomever to encourage the attorney general to say, hey, be on the job. you were nominated, you were confirmed to do your job. now, i don't think it was a wise thing to do as a mat

>> i would compare all of that to monica lewinsky and ken starr and the activities that surrounded billlinton in 1998. petime dealing with a special counsel would bring down the democratic party. the reality was republicans didn't gain seats during that election because we had six straight quarters of economic growth. if we remain focus on the economy and things that help americans we'll be successful. the democrats have to distract and divide. republicans want to focus on the agenda we laid out in the election and executing every day if washington >> jon: if democrats want to distract and divide they'll have a lot of help from the headlines, are they not? >> well, certainly the circumstances now are not ideal. you have a biased probe. you have the board of directors for the never trump movement essentially participating in the mueller probe from andrew wiseman who attended clinton's election night party and those defending the clinton foundation. i don't think it will result in major electoral wins for the democrats. in my district and others people are focus on pocketbook i shall aoul

four hours testifying with a video hook up to a grand jury who he was questioned about the monica lewinsky affairs. a lot of who covered the clinton administration remember. is this a sign of a potential interview saying that mueller may be completing or nearing the end of his investigation? >> it's total speculation on my part, but if i was to speculate i would say that, yeah, if he interviews the president, that's probably the last person that would be on the list of very important folks to talk to. and i don't think necessarily this investigation is going to wrap up anytime soon, but i think that's basically the end of the information gathering stage. and from there you go into processing that information. but having never served on a special counsel and not being an expert on being a lawyer, it's kind of hard for me to tell. >> a u.s. air force pilot as opposed to being a lawyer. so you got a different kind of training. haw he lobbied, how sessions was looking to put out damaging information on the director comey, the justice department denying that. do you think those men need to be i
