we have more than that we have contraindications and those are the two indictments returned on bob miller'sndividuals the organizations and when you read those two indictments what you see as the russians were up to no good it's a speaking indictment that tells a story and the story is told is noncollusion there doesn't need to me it isn't just in the political sense they were doing all kinds of things like a false pretense and here was one of the keys that i shows no collusio collusion, on the very same day the russian operatives financed new york city approach trump rally and anti- trump rally on the very same day to sow the seeds of discord. to my knowledge you are exactly right there is no evidence of collusion. mark: these indictments of the russians they were indicted for activities when who was president ?-question-mark president obama. >> these activities took place when who was president? the department of justice who was president? i am flabbergasted that there is in the media paparazzi chasing barack obama unwittingly did he know about this otherwise what kind of administration w

making false statements to the investigators they have uncovered anything related to the crime that bob miller was originally investigating however the investigation itself has led to new crimes being committed so despite the fact that not much has really been discovered over the course of the last two years there are some who are expecting that the final report will contain smoking gun revelations that will topple the administration or maybe not the investigation when completed could turn out to be quiet and it comerica not draw a conclusion about that again i don't move. so the final report will draw a line in the sand and everyone can just move on can't they if he finds that there was no direct collusion between the trump campaign and russia where we're going to have to do our own investigation then we are a short moeller report would mark the end of the beginning not the beginning of the end this saga for the president it's legal saga and it doesn't appear to be anywhere close to being over as the president hopes so we've got a rather costly report that has not yet been released the conclu

he wants to run a parallel investigation of bob miller whereby he and the democrats in the house intelligencehey want and keep back what tidbits they don't want to reveal. >> neil: with the move the probe comes out and let say doesn't have anything to stick to the president, that doesn't mean anything for adam schiff. he can pursue whatever he wants. >> correct. he could call the same witnesses and look at the same evidence bob mueller didn't come to a different decision. bob mueller has the authority to indict. congressman schiff does not. >> neil: if bob mueller, nothing we can see here that is tawdry or legal. congressman schiff can take that same report and do what? >> released excerpts to attempt to embarrass the president. >> neil: can he make impeachable offenses out of it? >> yes. i think mrs. pelosi has on her hands a lot of people who want to impeach the president. >> neil: anything that would rise to high crimes and misdemeanors. >> they believe their base wants that. democrats in the house can get their hands on president trump's tax returns and go to the floor of the house and re

>> congressman bob miller is going to finish his investigation when he wants to finish his investigation. >> >> mr. mueller on his? >> i have been on the record about my respect for bob mueller in his ability to conduct this investigation. >> to believe he's on his? >> i have no reason to believe he's not honest. >> to believe he is conflicted, yes or no? >> as i mention regarding recusal's, the constant analysis for the individual lawyer to make once the matter is before them. and i'm sure that whether it is bob mueller or rod rosenstein the department of justice. >> do you believe that he is conflicted? >> as acting attorney general, i follow regular order of the department of justice and i expect that the lawyers on the support staff and the agents that work for me follow regular order and as i sit here today, i don't have any reason to believe that. >> c believe he is honest, you don't believe he is conflicted. say right now is to president, he is honest and not conflicted? >> i am not a puppet to repeat what you're saying. >> are you able to save or do you not believe it? >> i have

bob way -- >> it didn't involve money -- >> they didn't refuse to apr appropriate it. it's in the plain stat chute it people don't like it, they can address it. >> pressing steven miller on basically is this not an unprecedented move. what do we expect? as you said at the top, they'll be protests all across the country today. the president is signaling his top advisers he will veto any legislative block. it doesn't appear there's enough votes. the big problem for the president appears to be the legal challenges the white house will face. >> "washington post" white house correspondent ann guren. mark thompson. republican strategist rick tyler. kristen talked about the fight in congress. is this 2016 again? let's try it again? >> 2016 rebeooted for 2020, for sure. the wall became the signature issue on which the president l ral rallied. miller was integral to that entire strategy. the wall is metaphorical but has to be a physical thing. the white house will fight to be able to say to its base we went to the mat to build the wall. >> it's one thing to be the president. it's another to be a member of congress trying to run for re-election. republicans have been split on t

miller i would not. agree with you on that but i would put a slightly different emphasis i think the russians were putting their bets not so much on assad personally bob on the syrian state they simply don't believe that one has to destroy the entire state structure in order to get three to one person that you don't like reach seemed to be the american strategy in syria and i think previously in iraq but let me bring you back to the spending issue is really the main theme here and how did the american smasher the effectiveness of such spending on security on the nuclear industry which i assume most of that would be classified the point is political it's not classified and the point is to deter threats that there are out there and to deal with threats that are out there not just completing a book called embracing threat listen i was arguing in favor of complacency and then put in a piece of that in many respects and obio done a year or two and a basically argues that we should have military spending commensurate with the threats that exist there basically are virtually no threats that require much in the way of military hardware for the united states a

as bob costa tweeted in the middle of the speech last night, despite all the protests we will hear something different or he's channeling steven miller or channeling bannon, this is donald trump. because this is the same speech donald trump always gives. >> yeah. if you look at that speech he made. i went back and watched the top of it again last night when he came down the escalator in 2015, it's not that different, in pieces talking about immigration on the wall and what's happening in the border at the top of that speech. this is who he is. steven miller has found a vessel on donald trump to promote his world view and ideas on immigration. the president we heard standing in that room as president of the united states is not a lot different than the guy that came down the escalator. >> when someone tells you who they are, believe them the first time. >> the president has been telling us who he is over and over again, even before he started running for president in some ways. the president is wedded to this idea immigrants are criminalizing america and the wall is the only way to stop it. the president said, i will build that wall.
