INGRAHAM Joining us now ░░░░░░░░ reaction in Raleigh North ░░░░░░░░ is Sol Weisenberg who ░░░░░░░░ the number two attorney ░░░░░░░░ the Bill Clinton Whitewater ░░░░░░░░ and in Washington Democratic ░░░░░░░░ Richard Goodstein Alright Sol ░░░░░░░░ s start with you ░░░░░░░░ had fairly harsh words ░░░░░░░░ after we learned more ░░░░░░░░ Jeannie Rhee her association ░░░░░░░░ past association with Ben ░░░░░░░░ the personal attorney for ░░░░░░░░ representing him in the ░░░░░░░░ with the House Intel ░░░░░░░░ Obviously Andrew Weissmann Peter ░░░░░░░░ the list seems to ░░░░░░░░ on and on every ░░░░░░░░ we learn more What ░░░░░░░░ your take WEISENBERG I ░░░░░░░░ t believe Mueller should ░░░░░░░░ I don t think ░░░░░░░░ s a case for ░░░░░░░░ resigning yet but I ░░░░░░░░ very concerned about the ░░░░░░░░ situation He never should ░░░░░░░░ been picked to be ░░░░░░░░ F B I lead ░░░░░░░░ on that investigation because ░░░░░░░░ one as you pointed ░░░░░░░░ there s a conflict ░░░░░░░░ interest since he was ░░░░░░░░ lead agent working on ░░░░░░░░ Hillary e mail investigation ░░░░░░░░ don t forget this ░░░░░░░░ s a witness now ░░░░░░░░ There s an I ░░░░░░░░ s investigation of the ░░░░░░░░ e mail server investigation ░░░░░░░░ there are congressional investigations ░░░░░░░░ Sol I have to ░░░░░░░░ in here Mueller is ░░░░░░░░ to be we will ░░░░░░░░ this montage in a ░░░░░░░░ for Richard as well ░░░░░░░░ s this guy of ░░░░░░░░ character he is the ░░░░░░░░ of the best to ░░░░░░░░ this investigation We have ░░░░░░░░ ranked partisans working on ░░░░░░░░ investigation Rhee Weissmann and ░░░░░░░░ It s not that ░░░░░░░░ are just Democrats that ░░░░░░░░ fine But they were ░░░░░░░░ working for political opponents ░░░░░░░░ President Trump and apparently ░░░░░░░░ is no issue with ░░░░░░░░ to actually reveal this ░░░░░░░░ the public We have ░░░░░░░░ find it out through ░░░░░░░░ reporting on Capitol Hill ░░░░░░░░ How do you know ░░░░░░░░ Strzok was working for ░░░░░░░░ opponents I have a ░░░░░░░░ problem with Strzok being ░░░░░░░░ the case because of ░░░░░░░░ of interest I have ░░░░░░░░ real problem I just ░░░░░░░░ the stuff today about ░░░░░░░░ Rhee and I m ░░░░░░░░ away by that I ░░░░░░░░ that s very disturbing ░░░░░░░░ Strzok was sending texts ░░░░░░░░ his I guess mistress ░░░░░░░░ during the debates who ░░░░░░░░ worked on the investigation ░░░░░░░░ understand WEISENBERG That was ░░░░░░░░ dumb But you know ░░░░░░░░ I know sorry go ░░░░░░░░ You know and I ░░░░░░░░ INGRAHAM Let me just ░░░░░░░░ here s the problem ░░░░░░░░ is not a run ░░░░░░░░ the mill investigation Richard ░░░░░░░░ want you to get ░░░░░░░░ this Don t be ░░░░░░░░ Richard you ll get ░░░░░░░░ of time I ve ░░░░░░░░ you forever I never ░░░░░░░░ you This has to ░░░░░░░░ an unassailable team This ░░░░░░░░ be a team of ░░░░░░░░ adversaries of the President ░░░░░░░░ doesn t sit well ░░░░░░░░ people and it casts ░░░░░░░░ on the integrity of ░░░░░░░░ investigation the appearance of ░░░░░░░░ political conflict of interest ░░░░░░░░ your response GOODSTEIN This ░░░░░░░░ not James Carville running ░░░░░░░░ investigation Bob Mueller was ░░░░░░░░ by Reagan Bush 1 ░░░░░░░░ Bush 2 from very ░░░░░░░░ federal law enforcement decisions ░░░░░░░░ Weissmann took on the ░░░░░░░░ Gambino and Camino families ░░░░░░░░ the Enron prosecution This ░░░░░░░░ the kind of guy ░░░░░░░░ want And incidentally if ░░░░░░░░ and people watching here ░░░░░░░░ that Donald Trump did ░░░░░░░░ wrong this is exactly ░░░░░░░░ kind of team headed ░░░░░░░░ Mueller that you should ░░░░░░░░ to stay there And ░░░░░░░░ far as this Jeannie ░░░░░░░░ incidentally I worked at ░░░░░░░░ Cutler some time ago ░░░░░░░░ left before they were ░░░░░░░░ Look if we are ░░░░░░░░ to somehow impute every ░░░░░░░░ what their client may ░░░░░░░░ may not have done ░░░░░░░░ Ben Rhodes could be ░░░░░░░░ by the House Unless ░░░░░░░░ lawyer Laura hired by ░░░░░░░░ worked for the Federalist ░░░░░░░░ I doubt you would ░░░░░░░░ happy I doubt it ░░░░░░░░ No that s not ░░░░░░░░ we re talking about ░░░░░░░░ you can jump in ░░░░░░░░ GOODSTEIN One second Sol ░░░░░░░░ second please Listen Neil ░░░░░░░░ made contributions to the ░░░░░░░░ National Committee made contributions ░░░░░░░░ Republican candidates INGRAHAM Richard ░░░░░░░░ talk Guys one at ░░░░░░░░ time it s not ░░░░░░░░ to work This is ░░░░░░░░ it would go down ░░░░░░░░ the shoe were on ░░░░░░░░ other foot If we ░░░░░░░░ a fact pattern involving ░░░░░░░░ Democrat being investigated like ░░░░░░░░ Clinton on the e ░░░░░░░░ server with a Republican ░░░░░░░░ these types of text ░░░░░░░░ and representation the left ░░░░░░░░ be raising holy hell ░░░░░░░░ it and I would ░░░░░░░░ maybe for good reason ░░░░░░░░ you cannot have a ░░░░░░░░ special prosecution as we ░░░░░░░░ seeing right now with ░░░░░░░░ gaggle of partisans who ░░░░░░░░ adversaries working whether for ░░░░░░░░ Clinton Foundation working for ░░░░░░░░ Rhodes working for all ░░░░░░░░ different people WEISENBERG He ░░░░░░░░ removed immediately as soon ░░░░░░░░ those texts came out ░░░░░░░░ What about Weissmann What ░░░░░░░░ Rhee They are both ░░░░░░░░ for the investigation WEISENBERG ░░░░░░░░ haven t made a ░░░░░░░░ for Weissmann being unqualified ░░░░░░░░ having a conflict of ░░░░░░░░ because of one text ░░░░░░░░ wrote INGRAHAM You want ░░░░░░░░ to lay it out ░░░░░░░░ you WEISENBERG But the ░░░░░░░░ thing is significant The ░░░░░░░░ thing is extremely significant ░░░░░░░░ Mueller should have known ░░░░░░░░ and he should have ░░░░░░░░ better not to have ░░░░░░░░ guy head of the ░░░░░░░░ GOODSTEIN Sol listen to ░░░░░░░░ don t filibuster I ░░░░░░░░ got news for you ░░░░░░░░ to me cross talk ░░░░░░░░ One at the time ░░░░░░░░ I m not a ░░░░░░░░ plant INGRAHAM Let Richard ░░░░░░░░ in GOODSTEIN By two ░░░░░░░░ one the American public ░░░░░░░░ Donald Trump is dishonest ░░░░░░░░ and not stable So ░░░░░░░░ there happens to be ░░░░░░░░ who works for Mueller ░░░░░░░░ shares the view that ░░░░░░░░ Trump is not a ░░░░░░░░ guy guess what he ░░░░░░░░ like two thirds of ░░░░░░░░ public And it s ░░░░░░░░ to say WEISENBERG I ░░░░░░░░ t have a problem ░░░░░░░░ that GOODSTEIN Hang on ░░░░░░░░ second Listen to me ░░░░░░░░ is rich when James ░░░░░░░░ broke the rules to ░░░░░░░░ his press conference attacking ░░░░░░░░ He broke the rules ░░░░░░░░ issuing the October 28th ░░░░░░░░ and did nothing to ░░░░░░░░ the American public about ░░░░░░░░ Russians helping Trump INGRAHAM ░░░░░░░░ more point because we ░░░░░░░░ running way over Sol ░░░░░░░░ s the problem WEISENBERG ░░░░░░░░ s a non issue ░░░░░░░░ point is INGRAHAM Guys ░░░░░░░░ Wait a second I ░░░░░░░░ it was my turn ░░░░░░░░ people on the left ░░░░░░░░ the media who are ░░░░░░░░ that Mueller is being ░░░░░░░░ attacked should look in ░░░░░░░░ mirror because you mentioned ░░░░░░░░ Carville He set the ░░░░░░░░ he said and I ░░░░░░░░ Ken Starr is one ░░░░░░░░ away from having his ░░░░░░░░ busted That was a ░░░░░░░░ who was regularly invited ░░░░░░░░ the White House I ░░░░░░░░ t like all the ░░░░░░░░ that is happening to ░░░░░░░░ I don t think ░░░░░░░░ should resign but they ░░░░░░░░ taking the Clinton playbook ░░░░░░░░ let me tell you ░░░░░░░░ s coming back to ░░░░░░░░ them INGRAHAM A lot ░░░░░░░░ to say on this ░░░░░░░░ unfortunately we are way ░░░░░░░░ Thank you both for ░░░░░░░░ us, Richard and Sol.”
