, here is rodger stone this morning, saying it was all you know, a meaningless, and did not amount to> actually my exchange with -- on twitter, public and private, and i have made public. constituting collusion with the russians is absurd, i do not concede he is a russian agent. >> intelligence believes he was. >> i understand, they also said that hussein had weapons of mass destruction. >> he said that had boasted he has a back chance told julian assange and in august had the tweet about p podesta. they are all denying wrong doing. where do you think this goes? what do you think could happen? >> i am like you, i am troubled by this i think it looks bad, the thing about americans, pursuing the facts with intelligence community and fbi, some of the stuff will be proven to be ke coincidental or not wht it appears, other pieces, there is so much. other pieces may point in a different direction. i think it looks bad, the fact that intelligence community is so compelled about this they briefed congressional leadership on this, very unusual, that looks bad. we -- as hard as it is we need to

mike rodgers and rodger stone or carter paige? was he aware of this?estions. at the same time, i do think it's probably pretty wise at this point for president trump not to tweet issues or points that are tangential or not factually confirmed. i think three weeks ago or two weeks ago when he tweeted that comment out about obama wiretapping, that was a mistake. he shouldn't have done that. and i think he should stay focused on the things he promised the country that he would do, which he did tonight. which was obamacare repeal, the wall, rebuilding our economy, all those core issues that drove the electorate. this investigation is going to run its course. but they're going to try to use this to now get him off track every chance they can. they want to get him off track and hurt his creditability. that's their goal. they want him out. brian: senator said it over the weekend. >> they want him to resign or want him to be impeached. that's what the democrats are after. this is not playing footsie we'll give hum a bad news cycle. they want him out. when you'

do you know who rodger stone is? >> generally, yet. >> are you aware mr. schiff, i'm worried we're going to place i don't want to go, which is commenting on any particular person. so i don't think i should comment. i'm aware of public accounts but i don't want to talk more than that >> are you aware that he has public pli acknowledged having directly communitied with gusifer 2, a persona of russian intelligence? >> i've read media accounts to that effect. i don't want to hurt be in. >> if mr. stone acknowledged mr. podesta's time in the barrel was coming in august of 2016, would that have been prior to the public release of stolen e-mails of mr. podesta's? >> i believe that's the correct chronology. >> do you know how mr. stone would have known that mr. podesta at the time mr. podesta said he was not even aware whether his e-mails had been stolen and would be published? >> it's not something i can comment on. >> at this point, mr. chairman, i'm going to yield to mr. himes. >> thank you. the ranking member and gentleman, thank you for being with us today. l
