lead to germs komi so those are aspects yes that should be addressed inside the report the key issue is whether or dust fine any of these activities does amount to criminal activity on the part of the president or other individuals who have not at this stage been indicted or criminally charged so that is the key issue here is what will be recommending to the attorney general is whether or not the prosecution should go ahead and he has to give reasons why they should go ahead on the one hand or why they should not go ahead on the other but what's underlying this is well and this is the important factor that i cannot stress enough is the fact that justice department does not believe that a sitting president can president can be indicted he can be impeached yes that is by congress but he cannot be indicted in a criminal court now while those guidelines remain in force that may be one of the . reasons why you've got a senior justice department official saying that the indictments have now ended as being brought by robert so the situation very very precarious as it were at the moment and

komi must have had his antenna up because he felt like something was wrong because as soon as he was done that meeting he wrote up these memos. after meeting with trump call me sat in his car and wrote down what was discussed the meeting was about general fled the advisor who had lied about his contacts with russia trump said he hoped komi come let the matter go. i hope you can let this go now those are his exact words is that correct correct and you wrote them here and you put them in quotes correct ok he did not order you to let it go it is a present united states with me alone saying i hope this i took it as this is what he wanted me to do i didn't obey that but that's why it took. colin's account is correct if the president calls in the director the f.b.i. and says can you can you drop the case you guys have against this person for political reasons i think that absolutely is obstruction of justice. the american law says anybody from an average citizen all the way up to the president who tries to block in a criminal investigation for the wrong reasons with what we call corrupt in

efforts and early may two thousand and seventeen as she is grilled over the involvement of trani and komi himself gets into a minefield and have you ruled out the president out of state but i don't. i don't people over interpret his answer i'm not going to comment on anyone in particular so potentially the president ited states could be a target of your ongoing investigation. i just worry i don't want to answer that that that's seems to me unfair speculation we will follow the evidence will try and find as much as we can we'll follow the evidence wherever it leads by refusing to say publicly that trump is not under investigation komi is just put himself on a collision course with the president. this is an n.b.c. news special report hears lester holmes and good day everyone we learned a short time ago that president trump has fired f.b.i. director james comey we are in a less than a week after coleman's hearing in congress trump fires him an attack against the f.b.i. and explosive news. bombshell from the white house wait to be i director james cool be fired by president truman we came we

things behind us let's hope they really do go and look at what was going on with obama and clinton and komi and moeller and clapper and all that and it needs to be done by the regular justice department by career nonpartisan people. it seems quite amazing that you could have an investigation that goes on for continue years based on it seems unfounded allegations twenty five million dollars of taxpayers' money was spent forty f.b.i. agents especially nineteen lawyers employed by. no evidence certainly no evidence enough to be sufficient for any kind of criminal charges to be invoked was it money well spent. absolutely not it's outrageous i mean you think about the double standard here you know they're moeller sent people breaking down man a ford store breaking down roger stone store meanwhile before that komi you know ignored he called me and the obama justice department ignored obvious evidence of massive fraud of the clinton foundation in the same window and look how they gave hillary clinton and her people a pass look at how they've been torturing the trump people from the very beginning

news that komi was fired because of the russian investigation in fact when i decided to just do it i said to myself i said you know this rusher thing with trump and russia is a made up story it's an excuse by the democrats for having lost an election that they should have won then he later told russian officials in the oval office that firing komi took the pressure off it didn't miller has rounded up those closest to the president his former national security adviser deputy campaign manager former lawyer and fixer of all pled guilty his campaign manager was found guilty of a litany of crimes and his long time friend roger stone is also facing charges of lying to congress and impede the investigation the president has another phrase he often uses when it comes to the investigation it was no delusion with the russian there was nothing there has been no collusion they won't find any collusion this is no reason whatsoever there are high expectations that miller's report will detail if that is actually true paddy calling al-jazeera washington. well donald trump's political rivals and demo

or something else obstruction of komi of sending orders to dominic and others to fire jeff sessions of asking various people including acting director mckay before loyalty the notion that there can't be a crime covering up for a regional crime is crazy i mean what giuliani has done in this whole it's not fake if it's not fake it's not lawful if it's not illegal i can't keep track of it myself you cannot obstruct justice you cannot fire the attorney general or the f.b.i. director under one pretense and tell america another these things are either legal these things warrant an impeachment and i would go further there are things that this person has done that i think have nothing to do with russia that should be impeach what he has done regarding taking out his personal. hatred of jeff bezos in terms of the washington post and amazon and using the postal service to to intercede to try to pressure amazon that is in ph a bill to interface to intercede with the partner of justice to interfere in the free markets of eighteen teet and time warner that is impeachable now well should be impea

the campaign clinton dossier firm also supplied information used in meeting of russians from tain komi that was truly time to make the case that muller should investigate the circumstances of the encounters with the president to determine if a crime was committed what we don't know is whether there was some quid pro quo whether there to what extent it involved the president. and exactly what the knowledge of was in the trunk campaign about whatever benefit they were getting from russia the final result you already know it there is no smoking gun in between . the russian federation so at this point we have to say they these people that want to talk about they're still being russian inclusion and all these things are conspiracy theories they have no evidence all the evidence there's been presented points of war the opposite actually being true there is no conspiracy or collusion or anything like that although it is common knowledge conspiracy theorists could never care less about official probes i don't need them on the report to know he's a traitor i have the t.v. . it is reporting that
