TY Baker!
I think you relied a lot on the media - how many times did you cite the WAPO in your report
M - uhhh
I counted 60 times
NYT - 70x
FOX - 25x
it looks like volume 2 is just regurgitated press stories
you cost us 25 million $$$
footnote #7 vol 2 - we cite news stories to put POTUS response in context
Do you think the American public will mistake these news stories for eviden…NADLERNADLERNADLER!
Bing!
…under our system we presume innocence
…the report creates an incentive for another SC to over-investigate - AG Reno
M - I operate under the current statute not the old one
Q - AG Barr said - he would make the report public
did you write it, did you later the contents?
M - cannot speak to that
M - we strove to put exculpatory evuhduhnce as well
Q - pg 1 vol 2
you had an obligation to prosecute or not
and in this case you mad e the decision not to presecute
M - no we made the decision NOT TO DECIDE about prosecuting
Q - drafting and publication without an indictment flies in the face of American justice - I yield to JJ
there's so much moar obstruction
FLYNN
Flynn lied about his comms w/russian ambassador during campaign correct?
M - correct
will not speak any moar to that issue
Flynn resigned, the next day lunch with Christie - now that we fired FLynn the russia thing is over right?
M - right
that's the way we have it in the report
According to Comey - i hope you can see your way clear to letting Flynn go
M - accurate
not getting into what was in Comey's mind
In the report - I support as being in the rpoert
you found evuhduhnce of catalyst to firing comey's - pres not under investigation
M - I support what is in the report
I just fired the head of the FBI, I'm not under investigationNADLERNADLERNADLER
M - is that in the report?
then I support it.
