this other memo, though, the grassley-graham memo and schiff got caught in a lie over the weekend basically saying that chuck grassley was trying to put a stain on the bobller investigation by releasing a memo that backs up in some respects what was in the nunes memo and criticizes some of the things in nunes memo as well but schiff says he's putting a cloud over the mueller investigation and gas i will says that he's not and wants the investigation to continue unfettered. >> look, this whole memo gate has been started by republicans, they continue to put information out and mislead the american public, all adam schiff is trying to do is correct the record that both democrats and republicans voted for and president release it. putting that aside, the president should enact the sanctions that both houses of congress overwhelmingly passed against russia but the president refuses, he refuses enact the sanction that is both houses over majority of both houses have passed. when katrina talks about russia, we need to ask why the president is so concern about him looking bad politically and not protecting our national interest, not protecting our elections whe
