the june 2015 trump tower meeting just one of the moments the trump campaign appeared eager to accept this russian assistance. mueller's team failed to prosecute saying a prosecution would prove difficult saying that individuals connected to the campaign willfully violated the law. the special counsel also investigated whether there were compromising tapes with moscow. michael flynn received a text saying, stopped flow of tapes from russia. he was told the tapes were fake. mueller's team also answered a key question, why they did not interview the president. while they believed they had the authority, mueller's team believed it would delay the investigation writing, we had sufficient evidence to understand relevant events and to make certain assessments about the president's testimony. although attorney general william barr has cleared trump of criminal wrongdoing, mueller points out that congress can still investigate and now democrats are calling on mueller to testify. back to you. >> thank you for that. >>> president trump was hosting a white house event for the wounded warrior pro

because the trump counsel asked him to. donald trump's team was trying to save trump from trump. and the top aides, reince priebus and adviser steve bannon, tried to stop president trump from ousting mueller saying his arguments to do so were ridiculous. they feared that trump was not listening. that he did not believe their warnings that all of this would back fire or chris christie's warning that firing trump was the one thing he could do that would lead republicans to abandon him. so get this. bannon and priebus hatched a plan in june 2017, about a month into the probe. and they meet with him, you just sawett on the screen. and say there are concerns. he plans to publicize trump's man to fire mueller and that would seem credible coming from a trump supporter like him. priebus agrees knowing it might avoid another blow up like the one that followed the termination of comey. so to stop trump from trying to fire mueller, his own aides, and a top loyal supporter televise this test run of the plan to give trump just a taste of the back lash and try to trick him into backing down. t

interact with donald trump, which will tell you whether the other party and trump reported a transaction the same way. >> david coren, chairman neal in his letter was careful to frame this in a way that vacuums out of the irs basically every document in the last six years that has anything to do with donald trump or these businesses. >> and i like to start with something very simple, and i think his letter does address this. donald trump, as you pointed out in the video clip at the beginning, said he would release his taxes if he ran for president. of course he didn't. his reason, his excuse, he's under audit. i don't think that really makes a difference, because the tax returns are filed, the irs has them. why would that be a reason not to? but we don't know. trump has made it a steadfast point to refuse to release even information indicating he was under audit. and he doesn't say what years are under audit. his returns from 10 years ago, eight years ago, seven years ago, five years ago. we don't know, so i think it would be very interesting just to see to what degree that excuse has an

and the trump administration. so this declaration about the kinds of harm that can come to the united states when russia builds those kinds of relationships with people associated with u.s. politics particularly when there are surreptitious relationships that is stark stuff at this point given we're seven days out from the redacted mueller report. well, the fight over whether or not that document could be admitted in court was resolved today. that declaration from the former top counter intelligence official at the fbi will be admissible for her sentencing. that means it's possible that we might see that fbi expert actually testify at her sentencing in open court tomorrow. but butina's sentencing hearing is scheduled for 10:00 a.m. in federal district court tomorrow in many d.c. that does it for us tonight. now it's time for "the last word with lawrence o'donnell." >> kind of surreal in the last hour to see bridget kelly sitting there with you. >> right. >> who investigated bridgegate, better than any of us and mo

the more this race is about trump and trump's conduct in america in the trump era, the bigger joe biden looks and the bigger this race looks and that helps him stay out of the nit nitty-gritty that he does not want to get dragged into and litigate his past, take on attacks from various democratic opponents and get into the mud with them. he wants to be big and above the fray because otherwise, don, you know, why else should democrats pick him if this is just one more democratic primary and one more campaign? he's got to make this race a national emergency. this is a different kind of moment. one of his supporters from philadelphia, brendan boyle, a congressman, said this is the most important election since 1860. if it's not that urgent, he's not going to be the nominee. >> first of all, no one told me to say this, before you and i start getting e-mails -- tweets about it, i didn't mean rocka billy, it's bluegrass. >> the biden style gaffe, don. we'll forgive you. >> quickly, please, i'm really over time. do you think that he did the best of sort of differentiating himself from the rest

>> collusion in the mind of many trump critics means if vladimir putin wanted trump to be president, then they colluded and it's clear there was support coming from the russian government for the idea of a trump presidency and there of course was all the propaganda stuff that came out of the twitter accounts and that sort of thing to disrupt the u.s. politics. you can't do anything about other countries having preferences in our elections or engaging in prop began take proa activities. a lot of people want to call trump a traitor on those grounds. paul: is there anything left, dan, the connection that homan describes russia wanted and what happened here in the united states with americans? >> no, there is nothing left of it. they went over in minute detail. i'm not going to go through here's the table of consistent tense. >>> you go through all these things, trump tower, george papadopoulos, june 2016 meeting in the trump tower, extraordinary detail. at the end of each one they say there was no there, there. no conspiracy, no cooperation. russians were attempting to penetrate there.

after $35 million with 18 angry democrats, people that truly hated donald trump, truly hated trump, they found no collusion whatsoever with russia. but i could have told you that and so could most people and so could have everybody that voted for me, which was a lot of people. so after wasting all of this money and all of this time with people were raters, people that worked on the hillary clinton foundation, people that were absolutely haters of trump, they found no collusion. what has been found during this period of time are the illegal acts of getting this whole phony investigation started. and hopefully that is where people are going now. that's where people are going. and it is very interesting. it was an illegal investigation. it was an illegal investigation. it was started illegally. everything about it was crooked. every single thing about it. there were dirty cops. these were bad people. you look at mccabe and comey and you look at lisa and peter strzok. this was an attempted takedown of a president and we beat them. we beat them. so the mueller report, when they talk about obs

coulter, we knew trump was . con man li why did you write "in trump we trust"? he was the only one saying the things we wanted said. and weirdly, the fact that he was not the typical, elegant politician, it made him more believable, because we had been lied to so many times by traditional politicians. maybe this is what we need. then he gets to the white house, and all he wants is for "the new york times" and the fancy people to like him. so, i don't know. he can come back. i wouldn't harass him if i t didnnk there was a small chance, but i've gone from thinking 10% chance to save then country wrote "iadios, america!" 90% chance to save theountry the night trump was elected president. now we're down to about 1%. >> at this point, are you prepared to support the president again in 2020? look, i wouldn't keep harassing him on twitter and denouncing him if i didn't think there was some hope. >> he is listening to you, it t ems. there was that momfore the shutdown where he was going in to have a negotiation, and then, the media narrative out of it,a when he went tve

documents about trump himself, the trump d.c. hotel, the trump chicago hotel, the doral property in florida. the derailed effort to buy the buffalo bills. when the president radically inflated his assets to get bank financing to do it. all of those documents are in the process of being handed over. the president is scrambling to try to stop the money trail from being followed. he's not going to be able to stop it. just deutsche bank alone is cooperating with the intelligence committee in the house. they're handing over subpoenaed documents in new york. it's on. the president is scrambling here including making stuff up now about mueller's investigation saying mueller covered all of this. nobody else needs to do it. nice try, but it's on. it's happening and simultaneously the second area, the other most accuse area of trouble for the president t other area for which he is scrambling the fastest right now other than his financials is his newly emergent very serious john dean problem. john dean in 1973 had just left the nixon white

trump is not even a dismantler. he sort of a destroyer of government institutions in terms but that's a big difference. trump is not interested in entitlement reform. if you would sit five years ago when brian was rising in the party and romney and right had gotten 47% against incumbent democratic president come if you accept whatever republican president and republican congress and you would have zero entitlement reform, jerry's attempt to cut the government honestly, totally cheerfully running trillion dollar deficits. obama was, to be fair, coming out of a, presiding over a horrible recession and there was a case for him in more traditional of view. now we're at the top of the business cycle and running a good deficits. i do trump is . identity politics, not more traditional dismantler versus rebuilder politics. with trump is all about he's on your side anybody on your side and it doesn't have to be particularly small government and trump is intrusively wants to be about come as we know about using -- or least ur

of the trump organization. the financial ties between the trump organization and the russian fed ration atouch upon. >> it also leaves the schiff investigation into whether or not the president was compromised. not what mueller was examining which is whether or not he was a winning conspirator but whether or not the president was compromised by all those financial ties. is that still a worthwhile open question. many of us thought it would be to look at two big issues. criminality and national security threats. the fbi, the justice department does play a role in defending our country from security threats. that's what the national security division does. they are part of the intelligence community. it seems that bob mueller looking at whether or not crimes have been committed. he did that. it leaves open the question which are the ongoing threats of national security. what leverage does russia have and that's for congress. >> jeremy, i'm reading just page 158. the end of part one. president attempted to remove b

i don't believe that president trump wants to do that. i believe president trump ran on the campaign promise of not bringing the united states into another war. but i believe president trump's intention to put pressure the policy of maximum pressure on iran in order to bring iran to it knees so that they would succumb to pressure is doomed to failure. and ting these poor individual know this. the u.s. is just announced that it is ending waivers for countries five countries that were continuing to buy oil from iran. do you see that as part of the effort to bring iran to it knees, and do you have an a understanding with the two big buyers, china, and turkey that they're going ignore u.s. and continue to buy your oil? >> the intention of the united states is put as much pressure as it can on the iranian people. you know, that we had huge floods that -- effected almost the entire country. and the united states through its e banking regulations. prevented even iranian -- to assist their country men because they couldn't send -- >> what about o

day 805 of the trump administration. the president is now facing new challenges after a rough 36 hours, including stepped up investigations from democrats in congress and new questions about the attorney general's handling of the mueller report. house democrats have now formally demanded six years of trump's tax returns. trump's accounting firm says it plans to respond to any forthcoming subpoenas for financial records. lawmakers now want to talk to trump's top inauguration organizer. he has walked back his threat to close the southern border this week and subpoenas have been served in the security clearance investigation. there are also those reports which broke last night that some members of special counsel robert mueller's team are accusing attorney general bill barr of downplaying some of their findings. their frustrations were first reported in "the new york times" and then "the washington post," and today a u.s. official confirmed it to nbc news. this is how the evidence against trump was characterized in these re

that eric trump, paul manafort, hope hicks, ivanka trump and jared kushner were in that meeting in trump tower in june of 2016. how significant is that? >> well, it doesn't, you know, it doesn't appear that mueller is going to do anything with it. there are a lot of cases that have been referred to other u.s. attorney's offices where it is redacted in the report, so we don't know whether or not don jr. has been referred to another u.s. attorney's office for consideration of this. >> right. >> we know that don jr. was not interviewed by mueller -- >> just to be clear here -- just to be clear here, what the reporting was that they were in a meeting that don jr. was bragging about this, right, getting dirt on hillary clinton. >> right. that's right. there's no lack of clarity that don jr. was trying to obtain information from the russians at that june 9th meeting and was coordinating with wikileaks to obtain information from them that would be disparaging of hillary clinton and helpful to the trump campaign. and don jr. was not interviewed by mueller. so either mueller made a mistake in not
