here is former federal prosecutor doug burns.f the groups apparently that will be investigating is the fbi which is under the jurisdiction of the d.o.j., now you have the d.o.j. investigating the d.o.j. is that problematic? >> it is on some levels. were gonna go down the road of another special counsel. i don't think you should actually so let them take a look at it. the other thing in the legal technical weeds, it probably always was a criminal investigation it's an administrative one which means during in a ministry of investigation if you're asked for a witness to testify they can decline once it's converted into a injury and you issue a grand jury subpoena and they have no option. another point that is interesting with people who work in federal agencies, while they are working there during in a ministry to agency their often required to testify anyway under the terms of the federal employment. the point is, they converted the grand jury so they could get people who are no longer in government like klapper and others. >> bren

here now is federal prosecutor doug burns. you can see how it's setting up for court battle.> i think you start with what he wrote on the half of the white house, there are cases saying in a congressional hearing, and specifically in impeachment hearing your title to do process to the constitution and the argument you're not affording us the subpoena power. that comes up in the context of he did not take a full vote. i'm not so sure on this, the point being. >> let me say, the point of the ministration unless there's a full vote on impeachment, the minority party, the republican cannot subpoena or cross-examine the witnesses. >> i think her house rules and procedures the point is they can give up the power or not and they did not do it so they should not. >> i feel like all admit i'm learning a lot. you have the subpoena, at the white house continues to resist, because that result in contempt of congress which would be a federal crime? >> that's an excellent question, i've been doing it for 34 years, we go to court and one side argues one position in the other the other, and

joining me nbc news correspondent for investigations tom winter and former federal prosecutor doug burns. tom, what happened today? >> so, katy, basically all the other people involved in this case are the two people that we have been speaking most about because they're the ones associated with rudy guiliani and they're people that rudy is their attorney or at least they are a client of rudy guiliani as he puts it. so we have been speaking a lot about that. there were two people indicted along with them. one is david correia you pointed out was arrested at new york's jfk airport, he was coming into jfk. we expect him to make a first appearance in federal court downtown in lower manhattan here this afternoon perhaps in the next hour or to. it's a cursory first appearance. tomorrow he will be the arraignment still unclear as to out players arraigned tomorrow, katy. at that time they'll enter their pleas of not guilty or guilty. we expect everybody to enter a not guilty plea. we expect igor fruman to be there. that's the mechanics if you will of the players that's involved and what's next i

doug burns is a former prosecutor and joins me now. doug, before we start about who should be concerned or not. how did this morph into this -- >> first of all, one bit of a technical in the weeds point. i'm not criticizing everybody anybody that says now it's a criminal problem. it was more of an administrative investigation and now it's a grand jury one. there's a process in doj. >> how does that make a transition? do you have to come up with new evidence? something, a smoking gun? something dramatic to make the -- >> very good question. it's less about new information. that's not an editorial, by the way. it's more about now we're ready to convene a grand jury and, you know, ostensively present evidence to them. the other important point that is worth repeating, charles, an administrative case, people can decline to be interviewed. once you assure a grand jury subpoena, then you have to go in and comply with it. that's a very significant distinction. >> we started out you saying there should be some folks in our criminal justice syst
