it also might be more than a drip, drip, drip. we were you can talking last week about two members of congress. remember there's 535 members up here. it is beyond the pail of reason to think that this is just limited to two members of congress as we move forward from this, it would be not a surprise if we were to hear about even more members of congress being employee embroiled in all of this. i agree with you, fits. we will be watching and we will be recording. thank you. also developing tonight, cbs and pbs fired veteran journalist charley rose. ate women have accused him of groping them, talking to walking around naked in front of them. the most recent happened in 2011. rose apologized for what he called, quote, dweeply inappropriate behavior. receipts ' bring in steve night from action ohio. we also learned earlier today that the head of disney picks ar studios is taking leave amid sexual misconduct allegations. what's the latest information you have about this. >> just this afternoon or this evening we heard that the disney p

sort of this drip by drip by drip, edit after edit. >> well, i mean, i think a couple of things.it could be in the line of fire, at least in terms of trying to figure out what role did he play in advising his father-in-law to fire comey, which could be obstruction of justice. the bigger thing that is happening that nobody talks about enough is trump's overall management style is so reckless, it is now endangering his own family. if you decide you are going to put a complete novice in a position like this, that novice will make mistakes. that's reckless. if you decide to give that novice title of secretary of everything, which is what he is called because nobody know what is his job is, he is going to create mistakes. internal to the building, a teflon guy. you can't mess with him. how do you deal with him? external to the building, everything is going to stick. who knows what his job is. if you put somebody in that position, give them a title or job nobody understands, that person is a family member, it's hard to explain you love your family and you are a good manager. you would

this is more of that drip, drip, drip of russian connections to people around president trump. gigi? philip? >> the latest revelations providing more questions than answers. edward, thank you. >> let's get a look at the forecast from nbc meteorologist bill karins. good morning, bill. >> good morning. temperatures have cooled off dramatically in the atlantic and northeast. clouds and rain will move in in ohio valley and ken cannotucky. rainfall amounts not a soaking. an inform of rain especially later this evening in the overnight hours of ed in and delaware, even washington, d.c. could get a half inch of rain out of this. here's the forecast. it is dry, it is cold in the northern plains, holding on to the warmth one more day from san antonio to new orleans to florida. and that rain will move in this afternoon. philadelphia, washington, d.c., in 1997.

, drip, drip of this will have an impact on him. so the question is will it be a continuation of the drip, drip, drip policy as it was in watergate. or will this be some avalanche of information, willven in-didi once. it has to be a tough time to be in the white house. >> he expressed his frustration about the fact that he is not in control of the justice department. almost like he is in shock. and as president, he doesn't control everything. what do you think? >> it's not his personal choice. and the president has expressed literally frustration that he is not supposed to get involved. he's not supposed to have an impact. well, there is a firewall that is supposed to be there, that protects the justice system against an individual getting involved. those firewalls were put in for the most part after watergate when we saw what a president who wanted to misuse government agencies could do. and so there is a very good reason why the president can't get involved. but donald trump is not accustomed to that. donald trump is a problem sol

we scoured the market, and there weren't any pre-dripped candles that looked like a drip candle.ark: it still burns like a standard pillar, so you get the aesthetic of a drip candle without the mess. sam: so mark, who's artistic and crafty, said "why don't we make them ourselves?" lemonis: so is this kind of like a halloween candle? mark: you'll have, like, the younger people kind of -- it could be a little goth and romantic. and then sometimes you'll have, like, the older crowd -- -sam: who see a shabby-chic. -mark: yeah. lemonis: it's very niche-y, though. sam: but i see that as a good thing because it really branded us. people -- oh, pre-dripped. mark: there's no one on the market that has anything like that. sam: and that was a collection that we built a relationship with urban outfitters, and they keep asking us, "do you have anything new?" and we haven't had an order from them in a while. mark: yeah, no, now it's been a while. sam: this is the negative space collection, and we wanted it to represent the psyche of tortured artists. lemonis: so, like, what is this one? -mark:

this appalling, but it's just drip, drip, drip of implications and i find it very unnerving.assment for a second, but i just condoning harassment for a second, but ijust think condoning harassment for a second, but i just think at this particular time, it's almost the last thing the government need, or having said that, it's not just government need, or having said that, it's notjust the conservative party. it is not, it's everybody. everyone caught up in this. we are seeing a lot of questions raised about labour having promoted one of theirmps to the about labour having promoted one of their mps to the shadow cabinet, after being told by someone that he had harassed them. no one is safe, spotless in this. it's a mess. the government is faced with the same issues, similar to tax savings, you have to be taken seriously in your condemnation, you have to act. you cannot say we're taking it seriously and not act. that's the issue the government faces the damian green in particular. though he is obviously very close to theresa may, more evidence comes out, which i think, kate malt

john, how does t"the daily beas" keep up with the daily drip, drip, drip? >> we try to pick our angles. we have a great team of reporters really focused on the story. we think about it strategically. we push into individual leads we've got. and try not to say simply have the tail wag the doc and follow t dog and follow the pack. and the cumulative effect is that we keepand follow dog and follow the pack. and the cumulative effect is that we keep advancing the ball on this important story. >> all right. thanks for being here. up next, what we know and what we don't know about president trump and the at&t/time warner deal and why it matters to you. you switched to the capital one quicksilver card. and how do you feel? [sighs] like a burden's been lifted. those other cards made you sign up for bonus cash back. then they change categories on you every few months. then you had to keep signing up! you...deserve...better. now get out there and keep earning that 1.5% cash back on every purchase everywhere. thanks, doc. i'm not a doctor. what? [whispers] time to go.

over the last few days, a drip, drip, of names coming forward, not just conservatives, drip, drip, ofst conservatives, labour has had to suspend kelvin hopkins, for instance, they have accusations against clive lewis as well, all those people deny the accusations against them, and also the snp has had to investigate, and they've had a minister in the scottish parliament, and this has stretched beyond westminster to scotland, one scottish mp says she was sexually assaulted by a labour member, so this goes way beyond westminster.m westminster the party leaders including mrs may and mr corbyn, will meet tomorrow. what sense do you get the consensus forming on having some kind of formal procedure which people can then invoke if they are not happy with the behaviour, for instance, of their boss, if they are working for an mp. is that sense that all the parties want to be seen to be doing something about it. jeremy corbyn will be giving a speech in the north west when he will be talking about the moment of culture change, the need for real change is now, the other parties have their own iss

now they've had time and this explains this drip, drip, drip of more republicans saying i had time to listen to that radio interview and i cannot find his denials credible. sometimes that takes time. in our hyperfast news cycle it can be difficult to realize but this is only going to get worse for roy moore. >> and let me get you to weigh in on how the condemnation has evolved. the first reaction and what i saw from white house officials on the sunday shows went like this. if true, then -- >> well, this is not a legal proceeding. this is someone seeking the privilege of serving in the u.s. senate. it may be that all that you have is this exquisitely detailed and so far holding up as true reporting from "the washington post." a lot of politicians are sort of in a new reality where they either believe the women or they don't. >> i'm sorry, let me get mark on this first. >> no, no, i would just say that sort of speaking -- coming at this like a journalist, i think "the washington post" story read rock solid to me. the reporters are terrific. i think that this woman today certainly seemed

the drip, drip, drip, just seems to build up all of the anticipation. first of all, this idea that you would replace hillary clinton mid campaign, is that even feasible? >> no, it really doesn't. this seems more like a speculative moment for donna brazile than something that was about to happen and she couldn't have done this single-handedly. she would have had a lot of support and the vote of many other democratic officials. you know, this is in the category of bad timing for democrats to be relitigating the election and the tensions during the election. right now, when they are probably poised to do pretty well in the midterm elections, it's just a problem for democrats that this book is coming out right now. >> certainly we know the clinton staffers are outraged. i was going to use another word. and they have put out a stadium, including huma abedin and john p podesta saying, quote. errol, how damaging is this? julian is already eluding to it here. is it just a fight between clinton staffers and donna brazile? donna brazile was head of the dnc and no

as opposed to having to continue to drip drip.this is self-inflicted wounds, the idea of only handing over that which is requested by you. this is an operation and a counterintelligence probe that is widening and widening its scope and its scrutiny largely based on the actions of the people that it's investigating. because there seems to be this impression that if you drip drip drip and you're not entirely forthcoming, that somehow that will be to your benefit. and as they see time and time again and as we see time and time again, nothing could be farther from the truth. the entire role of the fbi is to be the proverbial dog with a bone who is intent on finding out why people have this selective amnesia and how far they're willing to take it. >> so, jack, as evan just reported before this segment, we have more information about the back door overture and the dinner, the invite the senate judiciary committee is asking about. it refers to, by the way, a west virginia man, a former contractor in iraq who proposed a meeting between ru

this drip, drip, drip of denials and then revelations that would indicate something counter to thesels. and, again, as i have said before, the best thing that can happen here is come to cloche other this and that there be a resolution once and for all. that's why i think the special counsel work is so important. and i think director bob mueller will continue his very methodical, comprehensive approach to this. ys, it does raise concerns and it be appear to belie all the staunch denials of any connection with the russians. >> you want special counsel to continue his work. you have praised him. does it look like he is building a case for obstruction to justice? cnn overnight reporting they are getting documents from kushner. >> well, as a layman, i'm not a lawyer. >> right. >> so i can't parse what is obstruction or not. but i felt that way on its face when jim comey was so preemptively fired. the president seeking pledges of loyalty or asking him to fall off the investigation of flynn. as a layman, it appears that way. and i think special counsel mueller is going to thoroughly explore

, drip, drip come out where they're e-mails between don jr. and russian folks about a meeting and don jr. dm's with wikileaks, and why would you let folks get ahead of you on and this then playing catch up saying nothing to see here, here's what transpired, and it's puzzling unless there's something they are hiding. i don't get why they would not have responded by dumping everything last december or january. >> josh, what jumps out at you? >> the haplessness in don jr. engaging with wikileaks in the heat of the campaign. anybody with a moral campus would have known at the time this was a bad thing to do. he seemed interested, and at times he ignored some of the e-mails, he did wind up tweeting out the links wikileaks asked him to tweet out. >> you have politics and law here. there will be crossover and then they will drift apart, and here the link was publicly accessible already. that's going to be very important for trump jr.'s lawyers, because if it's already out there then what am i doing by sharing the link again? politically, jonathan, th

i think the speed in the house, he secrecy of it all and the drip, drip, drip of information to get reactionsrom the public as to possible content within that legislation, that kept everybody offbalance, but now you have the template which is the house bill and the scrutiny on that, an independent analysis and groups that are advocating for some level of fairness in our tax code see that this is indeed a tremendous boom for the wealthy of the wealthy of this country and for corporate america and that all the promises made is to how this is going to provide financial and tax relief to the middle class and working families in this country and to the small business folks across this country, family owned businesses in particular, that's not the reality of this. this is incentivizes this trickle down theory and something that historically we've seen over and over more than once and doesn't produce the job. it doesn't produce the wage increases. it doesn't facilitate and in fact makes the competition worse for small businesses down the road. so as now that is being scrutinized, that template and t

has continued to have this evidence drip out and create big problems for major event organisers beat fever in the world cup. what are we expected to do? fever insists it is carrying out its own investigation which may or may not include a conversation with rodchenkov. it has been said to me would be in their interest to talk to him. fifa was not the only international sport federation dragging its feet over this issue. o rla dragging its feet over this issue. orla was doing was eroding the confidence of people in the anti— doping system. —— all that was doing was eroding the confidence. five more russian competitors from the 2014 sochi winter olympics have been banned for life over anti—doping rule violations. they include dmitrii trunenkov and aleksei negodailo, both members of the gold—medal winning four—man bobsleigh team, as well as biathlon relay silver—medallists ya na romanova and olga vilukhina who also won another silver in the seven and a half kilometre event. the latest bans bring the total number of russian athletes suspended from the games for life to 19 this month, with

drip drip disclosures were a mistake, but the president is the only guy who knows what he did.ou can't behave rationally if you don't know what the underlying factors are. it's possible it's so incriminating you fire comey. >> then he came up with a ridiculous statement for his son about the june 9th meeting. another one about kushner. don't know if trump wrote that, but it sure looks like it. seems like he's ignoring the lawyers and he's doing the strategyizing in this. >> he just mentioned kushner. it would also be possible if someone was conspireing in furtherance of that that the president would be indicted for obstruction as well. >> absolutely. he might have to be worried about protecting his son-in-law, his son, as well as himself. we don't know exact will i what he did, but we have the outward man testations of some things that are clear pointers to criminal violations. i think there are things to proceed against him. any other person would be indicted on everything we know, but we treat the president differently. i think that's appropriate that he has to have more evid

but if you look at the papers in the last few days there's been this continuous drip, drip, drip, newfor example we've got dan poulter, there's an allegation against him in there's an allegation against him in the times. downing street have said they are referring him to the new disciplinary committee they have set up. it's not just disciplinary committee they have set up. it's notjust the conservatives, there's an allegation from a labour msp ina there's an allegation from a labour msp in a scottish parliament saying she was sexually assaulted by a labour member and the party didn't deal with that well enough. labour have come in for criticism on that issue, the happy several women, one who says she was raped by a member of the party and when she went to a senior labourfigure of the party and when she went to a senior labour figure she was not given the right advice —— there have been several women. she was told not to say anything because it could damage her if she did. that was put to the party today, on the andrew marr show inspector dawn butler who is the women and equality ‘s sh

. >>> drip drip drip. the russia investigation headlines never stop.ight sources tell cnn about the pressure building felt inside the family of national security adviser michael flynn. good evening, welcome to the program everyone. rick, i'm going to start with you. cnn is reporting that former white house national security adviser michael flynn is concerned about legal exposure of his son, michael flynn, jr. both flynn and his son under investigation by robert mueller. do you think flynn might try to cut a deal with mueller because of this? >> well, i've heard that flynn -- i've heard that the older flynn has probably missed his launch window on cutting that deal. and if i were him i'd be nervous. this is a guy who is in deep trouble of the he's got a lot of farrah violations that are probably out and evident. and i think robert mueller can bring tremendous pressure. he doesn't have the resources to defend himself and trump is not going to cover the bill. so if i were him, i would make a deal as quick as i could. >> now that the indictments have been

, drip, drip disclosures of a mistake, but the president is the only person who knows what he did, rightn't make sense of whether he's behaving rationally or not. it's possible what he did is so incriminating and so bad that, you know, you roll your dice by firing comey and hope it works. >> he's certainly acting that way. he not only fired comey, but he came up with this ridiculous statement about the june 9th meeting. >> that's right. >> and then another statement for kushner. we don't know that trump wrote that but it sure looks like it because they both dovetail so neatly together. it seems he's ignoring the lawyers and doing all the so-called strategizing on this case. >> jill, you just mentioned jared kushner. i think we think about the collusion track and the obstruction track and having to do with the president and james comey, but it would be possible if someone was conspireing in furtherance of that, was it for the president to be indicted for obstruction as well, right? >> absolutely. he may also have to be worrying about protecting his son-in-law, his son, as well as himself.

but at this point there have been so many drip, drip, drip, whether he is in the right or not it createsssion he has something to hide, he see not telling the truth, and that's problematic. >> what i've been saying to people, and i'm not an attorney or an experienced prosecutor, joyce, but what i noticed about this guy mueller is he is very proper, very nine to five kind of guy. he does everything by the books. his hair is combed perfectly. he carries the perfect attache case. everything is in order. his resume is perfection nonparallel like nobody has ever had a resume like this guy. if there is anything there, i think you'll find it. if he does a full frisk, it's going to be a good one. if i were trump and i had something i'd done in terms of the russians or collusion, in terms of obstruction, i'm scared. i'm scared for my family, jared, my daughter. i'm scared for the people around me because it will stink up my administration if any of them go to prison. i'm scared. solt the junior staffers floating around the white house in junior positions, they're not scared because they don't kno

, drip, drip and create even more problems for the future. >> mike pompeo recently met with a conspiracy theorist who argued it wasn't russia who was behind the 2016 election meddling in the united states. is the shakeup about who is most loyal to the president? >> well, you know, again, i don't want to engage in speculation as to who will or won't take the place of the secretary of state. but, you know, mike pompeo is director of the cia. my view is that he's done a pretty good job with the cia but at the same time, the issue is going to be whether or not, you know, he can suddenly move to the position of secretary of state and do it is seamlessly. the concern you have right now is that we have a secretary of state who has been working hard at the job but, at the same time, the state department has been totally undermined in terms of personnel and support and he's not getting a hell of a lot of support from the white house but he's also not getting a lot of support from the state department as well. so he's in a very difficult position. i think it probably is clear that somebody who has

drip, she is gone. drip, where had she been taken? drip, just a few hours he had said.his is happened before. it was nothing unusual. was it my presence that truth in here this time? did they take me for a spy? perhaps i set off a trip wire. i thought it wise not to sleep in my room that night. instead i stayed at an american friends apartment on a busy downtown street. the two-bedroom apartment damascus convenience store. awaken in the middle of the night in the dark i could remember where i was. the air was hot and sticky, claustrophobic. i ceiling fan barely nudging the air. and next morning she asked me to leave. she was a freelance journalist and didn't want trouble. for the first time i understood something that it managed to evade me all of my life. trouble is a contagious disease. >> first, i just want to say the writing is incredibly beautiful. we don't have that much time left because i want to leave question for all of you. my question is whether you actually want to reveal what happens to ahlam a press leave that to readers to buy a book and find out? >> i w

drip drip of political thought slipping to the press, we should be very concerned. when we look at the way this conversation about free speech, the reaction movement, they tend to drape their agenda in the virtues of democracy and what i mean is saying you are upholding one principle of democracy but seeking to dismantle another fundamental principle of it. the example that stand out to me most notably is the voter suppression, voter integrity commission we have now in which they are allegedly attempting to make sure our elections are untainted but having no concern for the people finding it more difficult to participate in democracy through voting. the same happens with free speech, when we are looking at the conversation around free-speech, standing in for more net various concerns that would not garner public attention in the way free-speech wood. as a quick example it is worth noting that the reason spate of neo-nazi events, far right-wing events of been billed as free-speech events and should be noted we saw lots of people in that part of the world, ideological

there were mouse drippings ul over the place. the he were toes have an opportunity to fully review the documents however, your viewership know they determined by the state legislature. he am ashley johnson for chasing news. we are joined by frank the district chief of staff. good to hear from you, frank. lisa, the top commentator. >> all right. >> all right. you got a lot of things. >> yes. >> bill caruso, good to you have, a lawyer, political strategist. lisa, we start with you. is it racist in her renly if you have at-large voting disvig. if everybody votes the whole town, they certainly, they are going to be pushed out. what do you smay i do say that could be very problematic. it could be seen as racist. a town like that where most of the voters in the black and at larger block the children don't go to the public schools so they don't have a stake in the claim and make sure they control that. that system. so i think that is very, you know, you know, democratic. >> it is way more pressured response. look. it is racist. that is

the papadopoulos matter amounts to the parade of drip, drip, drip. number two, when it happened smart people, you included, knew this was a really interesting move. because this was a guy who had not been on any radar. and yet the tributaries coming off his case and his actions could be reallyal interesting. >> people who have done these type of cases, prosecutors, you know, smart defense attorneys, they really saw this as a very strategic move by mueller of all the leaks around this investigation, this papadopoulos arrest in july at dulles was kept completely secret. and this was mueller really showing his hand. and since then it's really sort of filled in some of the holes and some of the blank spots a lot of us have had about what was going on this campaign and contacts we suspected were there but didn't know about. i suspect this is just one more broader piece of a puzzle but certainly a key piece in a position that helped fill in a lot of other areas. >> number one, the president's closest body man keith schiller goes in to spend some time with

the drip, drip, drip. i think that's why it is important. >> the point is -- it's not our job to put all this together. the special prosecutor will drive it toward conclusion. what we know as citizens and journalists watching, there we have an administration that says there was nothing to see here. nothing that went on. except for that. that didn't mean anything. except for that. that didn't mean anything. we don't blank the totality is yet. >> let's take a quick break. we'll continue the discussion. we're continuing on wait for roy moore to speak. and later, gop lawmakers and their high stakes gamble. can they pass a tax bill by adding a controversial obamacare repeal measure to it? each year sarah climbs 58,007 steps. that's the height of mount everest. because each day she chooses to take the stairs. at work, at home... even on the escalator. that can be hard on her lower body, so now she does it with dr. scholl's orthotics. clinically proven to relieve and prevent foot, knee or lower back pain, by redu

we're on a mission to show drip coffee drinkers, it's time to wake up to keurig. wakey! wakey! rise and shine! oh my gosh! how are you? well watch this. i pop that in there. press brew. that's it. so rich. i love it. that's why you should be a keurig man! full-bodied. are you sure you're describing the coffee and not me? >>> richard rodriguez and his wife attended services every sunday, and both lost their lives when the gunman opened fire. joining us is his daughter and his sister. ladies, we are so sorry you are going through this and your family is going through this, and we know you wanted to come on today to talk about your dad and your brother. tell us about richard. >> well, what could i tell you? he was my best brother. he was so sweet and kind and i loved him so much, and i will miss him a lot. he was always making us laugh. he was a character and always making us laugh so he will be missed from us. it's sad what happened to him. >> yes, of course. r regina, this is your dad we are talking about. i know you would bring your kids to church with your dad on sundays. why

the drip drip drip continues when it comes to hillary clinton's e-mails. james comey softened the language in his memo exonerating hillary's handling of classified information even after cia officials said they were damaging to the agency. this according to summaries of fbi interviews. one cia official calling whoever sent one e-mail "an idiot" writing that they knew better and hurt the cia. the timing of the interviews is significant because they're written within the time frame when comey edited language on hillary's actions from grocery negligent to extremely careless. that distinction is very important. grossly negligent is a crime punishable under law. so you're in fact a lawyer. so when you hear about this and you see that the language was in fact changed and softened, what is the first thing that goes through your head? >> i've come to the conclusion as relates to the clintons, they must have something on everybody. honestly. grossly negligent is a criminal -- a civil word and a criminal word. legal lion what it means. >> grossly negligent falls in

air bag in dozens of vehicles but his dripped to the carpet, not the electronic.dn't repair it for me because it wasn't mechanical. he said it's not me -- mechanical but mold is a serious safety issue. >> i don't want my family to get hurt. john: caution for all drivers. parking in tall grass can draw spiders and rodents to crawl inside to get warm. don't waste your money. i'm john matarese, abc7 news. larry: right now at 5:00, going express. we clear up confusion about the tolls on i-66. when they will start charging you and the fast lane option. bombshell report threatens to derail senate candidate. claims of sexual misconduct with teenagers. what is left of a tragedy turns into a classroom. >> from abc7 news, this is a breaking news alert. richard: i'm richard reeve with breaking news in southeast washington where a juvenile male has been shot. i will get out of the way so you can see the scene in the area of 4th and mississippi southeast. it is not far from ballou high school. we are told at 3:45 this afternoon, that youngster was shot. shot at least one time

. >>> amidst the drip drip drip of daily allegations of sexual harassment, we're in the middle of a sexual rights revolution. the right of a woman to be left alone and the corresponding obligation of a man to leave her alone. with real consequences for him of any violations. now, in order for that right to be fully recognized, more will will have to make complaints and pursue legal remedies against those member who overstep. too often in the past stigma and embarrassment precluded prompt reporting. hopefully that will change in a more welcoming environment, in which women who have been wronged can present their claims. that's in their best interests, and in the best interests of men who stand accused because each may then rely on fresh memories and evidence. otherwise there's no way to safeguard the due process rights of the men accused. and the public is left making decisions swayed by gender or partisan predilections. >>> the latest to be the focus is senator al franken. while the story is two days old it's already a remarkable snapshot of just how far the revolution has taken us. in the

and john, it's another disturbing piece of evidence, drip, drip, drip.ps coming in that these signals were going back and forth between the russians and the trump campaign. >> okay. on the other side, can the russian lawyer be trusted? her story has a history of changing. does she have credibility? >> well, the russians have been enjoying the mischief that they' they' they've wrought in the united states, and i do think that we need to be cautious in accepting her story. but there's some corroborating evidence. we know that there was talk of asopgss. the cutoff in adoptions was, as you noted, punishment for passing the magnitsky act. we know that she has a history of closeness to the russian government. so she is a plausible messenger for this. we know of the campaign's interest in the information. so there's a lot of corroborating evidence, and that, of course, is what you look for when you have a witness who is questionable. >> okay. you talked about other shoes to drop. another has dropped. for the first time, a member of the trump cabinet has been li

it used to be a drip, drip, drip. now it's an open faucet. one thing after another coming. we've had two -- well, three -- two indictments, one guilty plea. what's the next step along the way? the republicans are trying to deflect this away from trump over to hillary. again, there may be something there on the hillary side but this nation needs to focus on this president. >> you heard the allegations -- sex allegations against the republican senate candidate roy moore. >> right. >> first of all, i want to get your reaction when you read that story in "the washington post." >> i'm not surprised that there was yet another shoe to drop on this senate candidate. >> why? >> take a look at his history. his history of being removed twice. why was he removed? for the way in which he conducted himself. so there's a lot of questions about his conduct, the way he campaigned, his -- the way that he -- the positions he held with regard to same-sex marriage, to all of these issues that are current -- he was way out of line and now we find out that there are allegations that he was out of

this drip, drip, drip over the last year is turning into a full torrent of information that's flowing there. this house of cards is coming down in a very, very rapid rate. you take a look at all of these things put together. you look at the manafort indictments, you look at the guilty plea, you look at the question of flynn, all of this is coming together. it is extremely serious for our very fundamental operation of -- that is democracy. there is absolutely no doubt that russia engaged in the election. we're getting more and more information that the president's campaign and people around the president were in cahoots working with the russians, with wikileaks and others. reaching out to the russian ambassador to set up a back channel process of communicating with russia. it is serious. it is very, very serious. we also know that russia attempted to interfere with the vote count in multiple states across this nation, trying to hack into the state computers counting the votes. we've got to protect ourselves. we've got to finish this investigation. take it wherever it leads. if it leads

we're on a mission to show drip coffee drinkers, it's time to wake up to keurig. wakey! wakey! rise and shine! oh my gosh! how are you? well watch this. i pop that in there. press brew. that's it. so rich. i love it. that's why you should be a keurig man! full-bodied. are you sure you're describing the coffee and not me? full-bodied. if you spit blood you may have gum problems,s and could be on the journey to much worse. try parodontax toothpaste. it's clinically proven to remove plaque, the main cause of bleeding gums. for healthy gums and strong teeth. leave bleeding gums behind with parodontax toothpaste. fothere's a seriousy boomers virus out there that's been almost forgotten. it's hepatitis c. one in 30 boomers has hep c, yet most don't even know it. because it can hide in your body for years without symptoms, and it's not tested for in routine blood work. the cdc recommends all baby boomers get tested. if you have hep c, it can be cured. for us it's time to get tested. ask your healthcare provider for the simple blood test. it's the only way to know for sure. depend silh

the steady drip drip of allegations between now and december 13 may torpedo the campaign.e don't know. we'll have to see what comes out. no question that the republican party seems to be running away as fast as they can. again, the white house has no clue at this point what to do about it, shep. >> shepard: it's interesting. you mentioned the fact that they're in alabama, they might say, we're not going to let "the washington post" tell us what to do. there's no doubt there's that sentiment there. the republicans have spent many decades convincing the party faithful that "the new york times" and "the washington post" and the rest of the msn or the liberal media are not going to report the truth on these matters what some republicans have said the last couple days has been interesting to me, john. that's been their listening to what roy moore himself said to sean hannity. two different allegations. one is about a 14-year-old. that is pedophilia. that is one thing. the 16 to 8-year-olds. when sean asked him, did you date people under age, under 18 at the time, roy moore said

other point, we started off saying this was drip, drip, drip matter.ecoming a deluge with all these people involved, and the pattern consistently is people having to come back and disclose that they had more contacts with russia than they first admitted. that in itself is a problem i think. >> jennifer, while i have you here as ethics and federal prosecution expert, it's interesting to hear senator warner, leading this effort for the senate on the democratic side, fall back on term collusion which isn't actually a crime. here he was on "meet the press". >> the russians had what aspeared to be an organized effort to reach out to folks on the trump campaign. we want to find out what happened in 2016, was there collusion. >> what is the legal question? >> conspiracy to actually commit a crime. conspiracy just means agreement. you have to agree to do something illegal. $100,000 question here. if they're not agreeing to do something illegal and it's not illegal to try to win an election. you have to be talking about computer intrusion, using -- information.

. >> well, it's just the drip drip drip of information and it happens to be about jeff sessions right now. and as far as the is white house is concerned it's want about president trump just as the news of the first indictments on monday being about manafort and gates, the white house initially -- their reaction was see, not about us, no collusion. this is just white-collar crime issue. it will be dealt with. that obscures some of the deeper anxieties that they have. it's fascinating if you step back from this and you realize that this is a white house and a president in a defensive reactive posture. they're watching tv just like the rest of the country to find these things out. there's not really a possibility of them going back and doing a self vet because this campaign was so free wheeling. it was so unscripted, flying by the seat of their pants and it was really led by donald trump. so he may or may not have known about these conversations taking place. doesn't know they didn't take place. very difficult for them to do that and i know that even though the president is going to make
