he said in media interviews, where's my roy cohen, he sought to have matt whitaker to intervene in the sdny investigations, you take the statement from the president last week he has the effort to declassify intel, has the ability to strip national security -- >> that was the president. >> right. you take the seven efforts at presetting the public conversation around the mueller report and the two letters printed by the "new york times" that mueller sent letters not happy with the way the report was being described by attorney general barr. do you have any concerns this was distorted at the highest levels of the justice department? >> i have a lot of concerns -- well, at the highest levels. what concerns me is that they are -- the department of justice and the administration are trying to walk too fine a line. they're being legal technicians as opposed to, you know, the attorney general really thinking of his role as the attorney general of the united states and not to be very lawyerly is what drives my wife insane when i go into that argument. >> code 1504, honey. >> it happens all th

matt whitaker. he was upset about where's my roy cohen. whitaker didn't do things the president hoped for. barr is comfortable and he's able to parry the questions. he was good, effective in terms of what he was trying to do in terms of his testimony. it may not have been consistent with things he said previously. it may have raised concerns. in terms of getting in and out of the hearing and not getting red-faced, defensive, so forth, he handled it well >> you could see the legal wheels spinning. the line between perjury, not answering the question. he was skillful in that case. there is a new development. all of the sudden democrat after democrat, particularly the presidential contenders are calling on barr to resign or be impeached. that's a new dynamic. it's not going to happen >> i don't think either one will happen. >> it could take heat off the president. >> there are a lot of voters in the democratic party frustrated with what they are seeing. it allows elected officials to appear to be responding to those concerns. i don't think it will go anywhere. i'm struck by the statement that

cohen investigati investigation. the president through his acting ag, matt whittaker, had sought to get his u.s. attorney at sdny jeff berman to unrecuse, a move well known to trump watchers. >> something not done in the real world. >> we know there's a pattern of behavior. donald trump doesn't have a pattern in the three years we've been watching him. ag barr had asked if that pattern had been repeat on his watch, if he had conversations about ongoing criminal investigations. he clearly equivocated. here is how maggie haberman of "the new york times" described it, former acting ag whitit aker, barr is giving himself wiggle room of being contradicted without accused of committing perjury by saying he can't recall. >> joyce? >> i think that's what happened here. there was an incredibly uncomfortable long pause by the attorney general when asked if he had conversations with the white house about any of these cases that were spun off from the mueller investigation. we know that there are 12 that aren't named in the mueller report and then he wants to quibble about whether or not he had substantive

reporting that the president talked to matt whitaker when he was sort of the custodian head of doj basically about the sdny case that has resulted in michael cohen's prison time. the house judiciary committee believes it has evidence that president trump asked whitaker whether manhattan u.s. attorney could gain control of his office's investigation and his real estate business, essentially can we get this back under control of people that i trust, and then this item that earlier this year new york federal prosecutors had notified the trump org they wanted to interview additional executives but have yet to follow up on that request, according to people familiar with the matter. do you have trust that that part of the department of justice is being preserved and protected from political influence? >> well, that is one of the most concerning things, frankly, about the way things have rolled out here. as we know, there were 12 investigations that were referred by the special prosecutor's office that we don't know about yet in terms of what the subject matter is. and those prosecutions and investigations all roll up to the attorney general. he's not re

michael flynn sent twitter direct messages to matt gates, he said i bet your wife wouldn't want to know x amount of things about you. threatening michael cohenael cohen to keep the pressure on. gaetz says he got the messages, but he did not respond. your thoughts, paul butler? >> first of all, why wasn't president trump told more about michael flynn? remember the punch line of the chris rock joke you didn't know stuff because you were doing stuff. you were being compromised or maybe even being a double agent. of course they're not going to tell them -- tell the president everything about their investigation on michael flynn because they think, the fbi thinks, that flynn and trump might be working together on behalf of the russians. >> we don't even know if that is still ongoing, paul. we don't know if there is still an count every intelligence investigation. >> the only thing that mueller found is there was not enough evidence of conspiracy for the united states, there was not enough smoking gun evidence that they actively worked with the russians to steel e-mail or the election, but mueller found there was 251 contacts between the trump cam
