one heading in the document about kris kobach. he was in serious consideration for homeland security secretary. it listed, quote, white supremacy as one of his vulnerabilities. it cited accusations from past political opponents that he had ties to white supremacist groups. and there was also some of the contenders were as we said strikingly swampy, even by the rnc vetters' standards. sunny purdue, trump's pick for agriculture secretary noted that he was the owner of houston fertilizer and grain, a company that's received contracts from the department of agriculture. the list goes on but, you know, it was really striking. what was also striking is just how many of these people that took top jobs that at the very top of their documents they had said the harshest things about donald trump a character and they still picked them for top jobs. it's quite extraordinary. >> what's your big takeaway? one, sort of the caliber of the people that went to work for donald trump are not remotely close to the caliber of people that worked for bil

. >> kris kobach, former secretary of state in kansas, he was in the running for homeland security secretarysted in his vetting form as a vulnerability quote, white supremacy. >> unbelievable. >> it cited accusations from past political opponents that he had ties to white supremacist groups. and then you had, you know, laura ingraham, fox host, she was in serious contention for white house press secretary. direct quote from one of her red flags, she said people should wear diapers instead of sharing bathrooms with transgendered people. >> okay. that's shocking to say the least. what does this say about the trump administration's vetting process? >> so we did a lot of behind the scenes reporting on this. how it all came together. it was slap dash. and a lot of these problems could have been avoided but what happened was chris christie ran the transition, they fired him. this is before the election, they fired him just after the election. so they effectively started from scratch the week after the election and there's not enough time to this do this properly. so they outsourced this giant task

not only kris kobach, they stopped his testimony, but other people, they're stopping all the testimonyhouse needs to enforce its right to get this information so they can find out exactly if this census question was put in so that hispanics don't answer. >> and as you know, a number of democrats within this broader context, and again, we're talking about the census and other documents related to the mueller report, a number of democrats say, we still need to hear from mueller. is it possible that they could subpoena either him or someone on his team? do you think they're going to go in that direction? >> i think they will subpoena him and he will show up. he's not going to be one of these trumpian people who doesn't show up. but there's not a reason in the world not to get andrew weismann and some of the heads of these other groups in. and to get them to explain what they were thinking. and it's a very good idea and it's time for it to happen. >> and ashley, obviously, don jr. back on capitol hill, again today, behind closed doors. we do want to point that out. what are you going to be

there is a paper trail that goes from steve bannon to wilbur ross to kris kobach to the rnc.ion this week of executive privilege by the white house is an effort to delay congress getting access to information until they get what they believe will be a favorable supreme court opinion. >> that's where i want to go with you, sally. jonathan schaub talked about prophylactic executive privilege. >> ew. >> i know. has absolute constitutional authority to further the president's constitutional authority to assert executive privilege. put this, him claiming privilege, in a larger context of how the white house is approaching this. >> the larger context of the republican party. you have to partly see -- there's a way we view trump as exceptional and the way he is because of his willingness to completely repeatedly cross the line of moral decency, of what we consider the law. but this is a party that has systematically gerrymandered to exclude and dilute the vote of people who they don't like and who they tend to vote for, especially people of color. this is a party that has systematic
