RUSH TRANSCRIPT David Very ░░░░░░░░ Worth a panel Erin ░░░░░░░░ former Apprentice contestant and ░░░░░░░░ Rutherford Democratic strategist Erin ░░░░░░░░ are two questions on ░░░░░░░░ whole Russian issue Did ░░░░░░░░ Obama s team spy ░░░░░░░░ Trump s team That ░░░░░░░░ number one Number two ░░░░░░░░ the Trump team conspire ░░░░░░░░ Putin in Russia On ░░░░░░░░ of these questions have ░░░░░░░░ gathered more evidence Well ░░░░░░░░ former not the latter ░░░░░░░░ always love a two ░░░░░░░░ question but what miss ░░░░░░░░ did here is so ░░░░░░░░ worse than anything that ░░░░░░░░ Flynn did She is ░░░░░░░░ to be in hot ░░░░░░░░ This is that she ░░░░░░░░ have to obtain lawyers ░░░░░░░░ wanted to unmask people ░░░░░░░░ on the Trump transition ░░░░░░░░ and see who they ░░░░░░░░ having conversations with outside ░░░░░░░░ the United States This ░░░░░░░░ not for national security ░░░░░░░░ this is politically motivated ░░░░░░░░ To say this is ░░░░░░░░ Barack Obama related she ░░░░░░░░ for Barack Obama David ░░░░░░░░ didn t respond today ░░░░░░░░ on March 22nd Blake ░░░░░░░░ was on pbs She ░░░░░░░░ asked specifically about the ░░░░░░░░ charges of Nunes She ░░░░░░░░ asked by Judy woodruff ░░░░░░░░ began by asking about ░░░░░░░░ allegations leveled today by ░░░░░░░░ Intel committee Devin chairman ░░░░░░░░ Trump transition officials including ░░░░░░░░ president may have been ░░░░░░░░ up in surveillance of ░░░░░░░░ at the end of ░░░░░░░░ Obama Administration Here is ░░░░░░░░ she answered Blake I ░░░░░░░░ nothing about this I ░░░░░░░░ surprised to see reports ░░░░░░░░ chairman Nunes on that ░░░░░░░░ David Now if the ░░░░░░░░ today is true isn ░░░░░░░░ her denial on March ░░░░░░░░ a lie I don ░░░░░░░░ think we re in ░░░░░░░░ position to characterize that ░░░░░░░░ should wait to hear ░░░░░░░░ her I want to ░░░░░░░░ back to the two ░░░░░░░░ question David Sure to ░░░░░░░░ We certainly know the ░░░░░░░░ s allegations that President ░░░░░░░░ spied on him are ░░░░░░░░ false We have multiple ░░░░░░░░ who reached that conclusion ░░░░░░░░ we don t yet ░░░░░░░░ is the answer to ░░░░░░░░ number two which is ░░░░░░░░ more troubling whether there ░░░░░░░░ collusion between the Trump ░░░░░░░░ and Russians David Everybody ░░░░░░░░ answered that question already ░░░░░░░░ there is no collusion ░░░░░░░░ the Intel officials et ░░░░░░░░ That is not right ░░░░░░░░ have David It is ░░░░░░░░ We haven t begun ░░░░░░░░ intelligence committee is just ░░░░░░░░ We had them on ░░░░░░░░ me we had them ░░░░░░░░ Fox News and fox ░░░░░░░░ We ve asked them ░░░░░░░░ blank is there any ░░░░░░░░ of collusion between the ░░░░░░░░ and Russia and their ░░░░░░░░ is always no There ░░░░░░░░ no evidence May be ░░░░░░░░ the future but none ░░░░░░░░ now We wouldn t ░░░░░░░░ need for investigation We ░░░░░░░░ wouldn t have the ░░░░░░░░ for Trump Administration to ░░░░░░░░ for an investigation if ░░░░░░░░ was right David There ░░░░░░░░ smoke There is smoke ░░░░░░░░ is smoke all over ░░░░░░░░ place But Erin back ░░░░░░░░ you the question whether ░░░░░░░░ is fire So far ░░░░░░░░ only fire that we ░░░░░░░░ seen I think what ░░░░░░░░ the story again today ░░░░░░░░ true that Susan rice ░░░░░░░░ responsible for unmasking some ░░░░░░░░ these names that means ░░░░░░░░ what she said back ░░░░░░░░ March 22nd is not ░░░░░░░░ when she said I ░░░░░░░░ no idea about this ░░░░░░░░ So we caught her ░░░░░░░░ a lie Certainly seems ░░░░░░░░ way Don t forget ░░░░░░░░ rice is the person ░░░░░░░░ that whole Benghazi scheme ░░░░░░░░ crowd that was responding ░░░░░░░░ a video She doesn ░░░░░░░░ really have the best ░░░░░░░░ for truth an honesty ░░░░░░░░ We re not exactly ░░░░░░░░ with someone that has ░░░░░░░░ honest To say Barack ░░░░░░░░ himself did not wiretap ░░░░░░░░ Trump these are his ░░░░░░░░ Part and parcel for ░░░░░░░░ organization This was not ░░░░░░░░ wiretap This was not ░░░░░░░░ wiretap These were David ░░░░░░░░ don t know Trump ░░░░░░░░ caught up in incidental ░░░░░░░░ with Russian officials They ░░░░░░░░ not the targets of ░░░░░░░░ They were on the ░░░░░░░░ with people who were ░░░░░░░░ David Hold on a ░░░░░░░░ even if Dr Rice ░░░░░░░░ lie when responding to ░░░░░░░░ pbs interviewer that isn ░░░░░░░░ necessarily illegal I just ░░░░░░░░ that out there But ░░░░░░░░ fact is that it ░░░░░░░░ suspect is it not ░░░░░░░░ Well look let s ░░░░░░░░ we re talking about ░░░░░░░░ former administration firm We ░░░░░░░░ not talking about the ░░░░░░░░ David Does that make ░░░░░░░░ any better she is ░░░░░░░░ a former official than ░░░░░░░░ if she was working ░░░░░░░░ the president of the ░░░░░░░░ States when she asked ░░░░░░░░ the urn masking if ░░░░░░░░ story is true Well ░░░░░░░░ there is a lot ░░░░░░░░ we need to know ░░░░░░░░ why Trump campaign officials ░░░░░░░░ talking with Russian officials ░░░░░░░░ the campaign Unmasking is ░░░░░░░░ David You re making ░░░░░░░░ leap that hasn t ░░░░░░░░ made yet Erin the ░░░░░░░░ is that this information ░░░░░░░░ between foreigners It wasn ░░░░░░░░ between a foreigner and ░░░░░░░░ U S Official It ░░░░░░░░ gossip that was captured ░░░░░░░░ Intel officials between two ░░░░░░░░ about somebody in the ░░░░░░░░ Administration Precisely precisely This ░░░░░░░░ t necessarily anything to ░░░░░░░░ with Russia quite frankly ░░░░░░░░ you said lying in ░░░░░░░░ itself by Dr Rice ░░░░░░░░ not a crime If ░░░░░░░░ were under oath let ░░░░░░░░ say we would call ░░░░░░░░ perjury Saying we have ░░░░░░░░ be careful here They ░░░░░░░░ not being careful They ░░░░░░░░ being quite careless for ░░░░░░░░ to lie very well ░░░░░░░░ doesn t bode for ░░░░░░░░ personally David We have ░░░░░░░░ go but I should ░░░░░░░░ being interviewed by pbs ░░░░░░░░ not require taking an ░░░░░░░░ I think that is ░░░░░░░░ David Thank you very ░░░░░░░░ gang. Appreciate it. Melissa.
