Trump tells The Washington Post he's against his aides testifying to Congress

By Trang Ánh Nam -

Trump called Washington Post reporter Robert Costa to sound off on Congress wanting to question his staff in the wake of the Mueller report. Costa joins along with Maya Wiley and David Jolly to discuss.
We just reported to you that the White House is going to fight the subpoena for Don McGahn to testify before the White House Judiciary Committee.
Tonight Trump did an interview with the Washington Post, where he explained to them why he doesn’t want current and former White House aides testifying before Congress:
WASHINGTON POST – President Trump on Tuesday said he is opposed to current and former White House aides providing testimony to congressional panels in the wake of the special counsel report, intensifying a power struggle between his administration and House Democrats.
In an interview with The Washington Post, Trump said that complying with congressional requests was unnecessary after the White House cooperated with special counsel Robert S. Mueller III’s probe of Russian interference and the president’s own conduct in office.
“There is no reason to go any further, and especially in Congress where it’s very partisan — obviously very partisan,” Trump said.
Trump’s comments came as the White House made it clear that it plans to broadly defy requests for information from Capitol Hill, moving the two branches of government closer to a constitutional collision.
After two years of the Mueller report, I really can’t blame Trump for his reasoning.
Trump cooperated fully with the investigation, turning over tons of paper work and providing his aides to be interview by Muller. He even answered questions from the special counsel after refusing to do an interview.
And not once did he ever use executive privilege to hide anything from the Mueller team or the public.
He’s also right to point out the hyper-partisanship in the House right now. Democrats have left no doubt that they intend to use their resources to destroy Trump, one way or the other.
So yeah, I don’t have any issues with this logic here. This is war and it sounds like he has the right mindset.

NBC Washington Correspondent Yamiche Alcindor and former U.S. Attorney Barbara McQuade join Andrea Mitchell to discuss key challenges facing the January 6 Committee ahead of their primetime hearings this week: getting a "distracted nation" to pay attention and understand what's at stake. “I think the biggest challenge for lawmakers here, as they talk about these sort of huge ideas of American democracy and sort of the experiment that we're all living in, benefiting from, possibly being brought to his knees, is whether or not they can make people care,” says Alcindor. “The American public has been groomed to expect high value quick entertainment,” says McQuade. "I think putting together a polished show can be very important."

 NBC News correspondent Yamiche Alcindor worried Democrats would have a difficult time making Americans "care" and pay attention to the January 6 hearings, amid high gas prices, inflation, and a baby formula shortage. Appearing in a MSNBC panel Monday, Alcindor told host Andrea Mitchell that the "biggest challenge" the January 6 House Select Committee faced was getting Americans to have the same level of concern for their investigation. "I think the biggest challenge for lawmakers here as they talk about these sort of huge ideas of American democracy and sort of the experiment that we’re all living and benefiting from possibly being brought to his knees is whether or not they can make people care, Andrea," she said.

Chris Cuomo and Don Lemon discuss President Donald Trump's comments about race after the 2019 Oscars. Be nice if Spike Lee could read his notes, or better yet not have to use notes at all, when doing his racist hit on your President, who has done more for African Americans (Criminal Justice Reform, Lowest Unemployment numbers in History, Tax Cuts,etc.) than almost any other Pres! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 25, 2019 The left loves to hate on Trump, calling him a racist and what not. I know Trump can be juvenile sometimes – certainly – but the racist and hateful name-calling is just what it is, garbage.
