amy: davidid cay johnston?> well, you notice glenn greenwald is not dispute what our r what are established facts. we know russians offered to help the trump campaign. we have the enough is proving that. and we know don jr. was not interviewed. we know as a matter of fact, unless the russians fabricated the cable, that jared kushner sought to use the communications year of the russian diplomats and that they put their cable out of the way knowing it would be intercepted. and we know, angry glenn were not dispute, the russisians tryo inteterfere in our elelections. all of these facts are fundamental to what matters here. the issue that matters is this began as a counterintelligence investigation, not a criminal investigation. and i don't think bob barr has -- i think the as wit summer does not give the full picture. he quoted the only place -- the only place he quoted the mueller report as it did not exonerate donald trump on the issue of obstruction of justice. we need to see the report. we can't draw the kind

david cay johnston, welcome back to democracy now.ight now, this latest news of further investigations of the president -- david: donald trump has always been able to stop investigations into his background. juryat four grand investigations. now, he has the new york state attorney general who ran for office saying i will dig into donald trump. we have the southern district of new york, which is very experienced in these, anand we have a host of committees in the house. we will see donald trump's tax returns. we will see how much money he got from russian oligarchs. is deutsche bank matter particularly important, because deutsche bank whicich has beenn fined over $22 billion for seconduct, is the leading bank in the world for laundering russian money. arguably, it is not a bank, it is a criminal enterprise. the german government is trying to figure out how to get rid of deutsche bank by folding into commerzbank. juan: you mentioned trump's taxes and the efforts by the house to get out them. will we ever see trump's taxes? you mentioned

and david cay johnston is with us, the founder of dcreport.org and he's the author of "it's even worse than you think: what the trump administration is doing in america." david cray johnston has been doing investigative reporting on the business end of donald trump for years. emily, we have to start with you. i was almost shaking reading your report that the smoking gun almost didn't make it into the hearing yesterday. tell us about how michael cohen went to work trying to find documentary evidence for his hearing. >> it really is a story about the importance of cable news. because michael cohen had been working on his statement for weeks. he did have a conversation with his attorneys when they read the draft saying this is very powerful, this is very clear, the lines are very clear, but they had a problem, that the republicans are going to stop you at every turn and try to diminish your credibility and try and attack you. and because these are just anecdotes they're going to try and discredit these anecdotes. and as he's hearing this, actually representative adam schiff, whose committ

david cay johnston, the two davidsson. malcolm is back in the box. final thoughts, malcolm.le don't share your confidence, but i have to ask you, could it be that some of the intelligence professionals that have worked on the work product of this report could come forth and leak aspects of it that might not come out in bob barr's summary? >> no. the intelligence professionals won't be leaking parts of this report, but you can be pretty sure every member of congress is going to leak whatever they know about this report. >> yeah, yeah. >> i mean if there's going to be a cover-up on this thing, then you're going the see patriots inside the house and perhaps in the justice department deciding that it's too serious, that the american public needs to know this. one quick aside here, joy, you might be amused by the fact that rate now parts from our videos this morning are already being pushed by the far right and the far left to say that democrats are making up their own facts because we're having a reasonable discussion about whether we should know what's inside the report. so the

boris johnston said that they would back her deal.r whether there were some backtracking as a result that the dup would not back the deal from him. some of the heavyweight brexiteers have said that they would back her. which props up, her government, she is going to have an incredibly difficult time getting her deal across the line. at this point in time, unless something changes to get that done. if we don't get it done by friday, it looks like we are heading for a long brexit extension period in theory, wicked have more votes early on next week. she will definitely struggle right now. she is still in a difficult position. brexiteers over the last several days seem to have been turning back toward her. what or how does her agreement --resign when brexit happens how does that change opinions? >> it brings some key political voices back toward her side. seeing an option to take her role. we know that's what boris johnston wants. many feel that he would like the role of prime minister. why he was willing to back her deal as well as -- a

conor johnston. i am one of the owners of a soon-to-open cannabis retailers in san francisco. california -- you may have seen in the news recently, when it legalized adult use cannabis sales in 2018, the year for year sales actually went down. we sold less legal cannabis in 2018 than 2017, and a big reason for that is, we as a state have legalized the growing and the sale of cannabis but haven't done a very good job of legalizing the use of it or normalizing the use of it. you can walk into a store in san francisco and buy cannabis, but you can't use it in -- on the bus, in a park, you can't use it in your car, and if you're a tourist, you can't use it in your hotel. so we've created a system, like they say in pulp fiction, it's legal, but it ain't 100% legal. there are obstacles to the consumption and the normalization of consumption. so thank you for bringing this forward to the district aid office, and it is great to be here ad what -- at what i think is the second most interesting government hearing right now. if you're not watching michael cohen right now, you should be.
