>> having meetings in dublin is like having meetings in washington and staying in asbury park, new jersey. it is 180 miles away. it makes no sense. we want to see what's behind it. what's behind it is irrelevant. the president does not have the power under the clause to collect other payments from the united states government beyond his salary. he's limited to his salary. that's what the constitution says. so when they go down to mar-a-lago and spend $80,000, $100,000 a day for the fbi and the secret service and the white house people to stay there and they give that money to the trump hotel, it violates the constitution. and even the congress cannot excuse that. in terms of the emollients we have the power to approve all of these government payments the president has been pocketsing from saudi arabia, united arab emirates. we could do that. he is in violation of the constitution regardless of whether or not he told pence to stay there, he encouraged him, suggested it or protested and said, no, mr. pence, that's a terrible idea. i'm not allowed to take that money. >> your committee and ov

that's like you've got meetings at the white house, and you stay in asbury park, new jersey, for your meetings. it makes no sense. >> how forthcoming has the department of defense been in terms of documentation? >> it's been pathetic. we've gotten 20 pages. we originally wrote them back in june. we had to write them another letter just last week in order to tell them we're getting serious. they finally produced about 20 pages, about half of that was already publicly available. then they're saying they're waiting for the white house to review some documents. the president says he has nothing to do with it. he doesn't know anything about it. the legal point is clear. whether or not the president is commanding them to go stay at all the resorts and hotels and commanding the military planes to stop there or he's trying everything in his power to stop it, it doesn't make any difference. he can't receive the money. he can't take it. >> also the way the corruption works, if you've covered corruption in either domestic or international context, is that messages are sent down the chain that li
