exclusive reporting from just security, out of new york university school of law, got their hands on an unredacted set of documents, emails between the pentagon and the white house office of management and budget that draw a very clear line between the president and direction to withhold aid from ukraine. we should note nbc news has not yet independently verified these documents. i want to bring in former u.s. attorney, former assistant director for the office of congressional affairs at the fbi under james comey. i want to share one exchange, the defense department warned that holding the aid might actually be illegal, and the omb said the direction is coming from the president. given that exchange, how big a deal are these new unredacted emails? could they change any republican's point of view? >> well, stephanie, the answer to the first part of your question is i think they are a big deal, although they confirm what i think everybody paying close attention has assumed all along. whether they can change minds remains to be seen. but this new information is important because it clea

but now an online forum called just security, which is based at new york university's center on law and security has viewed the unblacked out versions of those emails. what they found, it amplifies recent reporting from cnn and others about just how concerned and suspicious senior government officials were that the aid freeze to ukraine was against the law, or as the former top diplomat in the ukraine put it, at the time just plain wrong. >> as the committee is aware, i wrote that withholding security assistance in exchange for help with a domestic political campaign in the united states would be crazy. i believed that then, and i believe it now. >> he, of course, testified to congress. many of the people in these emails that we're now seeing, they did not. and some are being blocked by the white house from telling what they know. and what they know is probably an awful lot, which is why this new reporting is so important. we're going to talk to the author who broke the story, kate brannon in just a moment. but first, we want to kind of set the table on what some of her reporting has un

the documents seen by the national security website affiliate with the new york university school ofere originally released last month under court order in heavily redacted form by the government to the center for public integrity. according to the report, the documents reveal that on augt 30th after meeting with trump associate director of national security programs at the office of management and budget michael duffey told the acting pentagon controller in an email that there was clear direction from trump to hold the aid. and he let her know that he would be sending new paperwork extending the hold soon. the emails also showcase the growing tensions between the white house and the department of defense over the hold on the ukraine funds amid concerns that the aid would not be released before the end of the fiscal year. nbc news has not confirmed the emails independently and just security declined to provide them. but there's this line saying this game directly from trump. joining us now, founding co-editor and chief and professor of law at new york university school of law, ryan g
