>> adding to what shimon was saying. the initial calls i was making, i was being told, this doesn't sound like terrorism. so to immediately have an idea, this is something they have to investigate, they can make that determination, but to get that initial sort of comment off the record, that's kind of consistent -- >> but if it's a pipe bomb, how can it not be terrorism? >> again, it's initial, just instinct that was given to me by authorities. it's not something that i can necessarily report. it's just consistent with what shimon was saying, that they're like, this wasn't -- >> but this is a frustration for brynn and us when we report this. we see terrorism as something that's trying to hurt other people. that is not how authorities define terrorism. they have to investigate to see if whatever happened is linked to a political agenda. that is what is called terrorism. doesn't mean it's not bad or someone is trying to hurt someone in the name of others. they have to make the connection before they call that it that. >> s

. >> so then, you know, shimon, who in trump's or bit should be most worried? >> we have talked a lot today about jared kushner, and that certainly seems to be a person whose name comes up a lot. he's -- though not named in thinks documents today, we've learned that he was the very senior official that was communicating with flynn about some of the -- some of his communication with russia. look, we also know there are other people that have -- that the investigators have shown interest and are supposed to go speak with mueller. hope hicks is one of those people, the white house communications director. she is very close to the president. these are some of the people whose names have surfaced, names that have been of interest to the special counsel. i think as we've all been saying here, anyone who worked on any foreign policy, anyone who was on the sort of advisory panel, the foreign advisory panel, is probably in the crosshairs of investigators because time and time again we keep seeing people who were associated with the foreign policy, specifically with russ

our crime and justice reporter, shimon prokupecz on the phone. let's go first to brynn for the very latest that we know. >> we know this went off, some sort of device, though, as you said, not as planned or malfunctioned in some way. that's according to nypd sources. somewhere in the port authority. now, let's remember, the port authority is made up of bus terminals and subways here in new york city and it stretches several avenues. so it's large. precisely where this took place, we're not quite sure. but we do know that the device was on a person, that man, and that man was injured and is now is in police custody. i was told from a source they saw him on a stretcher, he was alive. that is something that they are going to be talking about, talking to right now. as far as other injuries, it's unclear if there were other injuries. i know that there has been reporting that there wasn't anything significant, huge about this. certainly, the scope of this is huge, but as far as injuries and the damage that it caused, it isn't. so that's the good news t

shimon prokupecz has the details. shimon? >> that's right. so that claim is coming. he says he doesn't have to answer this question because lawyers were present in the room, not that he was directly talking to a lawyer, but that that conversation between his father simply because lawyers were in the room he does not have to answer those questions. now it certainly wouldn't hold up before a grand jury or questioning by criminal investigators, and as we know the special counsel is looking into the meeting and the white house, ultimately the white house response, to that meeting when public reports surfaced of it. don, jr., answered questions of h house investigators yesterday and his response is not being challenged by the republicans on the intelligence. now the answer was in relation to questions about a trump tower meeting with a russian lawyer. remember this she was promising dirt on hillary clinton and that meeting took place in june of 2016 at trump tower and also present at the meeting was jared kushner and paul manafort. it was during yesterday's meeting that d

. >> shimon prokupecz, the personal attorney, and this is not white house counsel, this is the president's attorney, part of his separate legal team is reacting to the concerns about the president obstructing justice. >> we are talking about john dowd here who is the president's personal attorney. in one tweet over the weekend where he said that he helped draft a tweet where the president knew that flynn lied and today telling axios that the president can't be investigated for obstruction of justice. let me read to you exactly what he said because this has caused a lot of noise today and certainly raising a lot of eyebrows on this strategy, and he said, quote, the president kv cannot obstruct justice because he's the chief law enforcement officer under the constitution, article 2 and has every right to express his view of any case. this comes from john dowd, the president, and this has certainly raised eyebrows within the legal community and people are asking questions about whether this even makes sense. let's just say we have not heard from john dowd again today. there are a lot of quest

shimon prokupecz, washington. >> thank you, shimon. >>> let me start here by just reading the tweet that is getting so much attention from the president. i'll look at my screen here. a few errors there, factual errors that we have talked about this morning. but i want to point out that this isn't a new narrative for the president. let's go back to july and quickly read what he tweeted then. now about that time, that is when he was still acting director then, but, also, it was about the time that paul manafort, his former campaign chairman, his home was searched by the fbi. is this tweet really about the email investigation, or is this more about russia? margaret? >> well, look. this comes -- when you look at the timing, at a time when house committee just interviewed the president's personal assistant of 30 years and it comes at a time when it's very clear that the mueller probe is not going to wrap up neatly by the end of the as the white house had been hoping and intimating for several weeks and months now. it also comes at a time when we are learning that the deputy director had told

was the president, shimon, trying to obstruct justice when he asked comey to back off the investigation of michael flynn? >> that's right. that investigation is still ongoing. you have another charge of somebody involved with the campaign, with the transition team, who is now charged with lying to the fbi. that also goes to the heart of any obstruction investigation. why were people consistently lying about their contacts with russia. so far we have not seen any %-p the russians, but you keep saying. again, it all centers around russian contacts. the question as investigators, certainly investigators on mueller's team keep asking why, why are people continuing and have lied about this contact? it clearly shows that this is all playing into the obstruction investigation. there's no clearer sign now than having two people -- you can say what you want to say about papadopoulos being a coffee boy, but it's still relevant he also lied to the fbi about his contact with russia. now you have a senior-level official who was with the white house who lied to the fbi about his contact with sergey k

shimon is joining me. normally it wouldn't be news if the deputy director of the fbi retires, but given the current climate, it apparently is. >> it's certainly for people who have been looking into the clinton investigation on the hill where he has actually faced some problems, has come under scrutiny because his wife, as you may recall, the deputy director's wife ran for office for a state office in virginia and basically on the democratic ticket and since then, since that revelation was revealed, the deputy director has come under fire by the president and by the republicans on the hill because they question his involvement in the hillary clinton e-mail investigation. he was the man in charge, basically, of the investigation. and was in charge of the day-to-day operations of the fbi. he still is, in some ways, in charge of the day-to-day operations of the fbi. nothing has changed since the new fbi director has come in but, you know, for the president, andrew mccabe has been a person that he has lobbed a

>> jim acosta, shimon set it up perfectly. how is the white house saying about this? >> that's interesting how we move forward. he was saying why did flynn lie about this to fbi and federal investigators? keep in mind during the transition, sean spicer incoming press secretary and jason mill ser communications director who didn't take the job, told reporters on conference call that michael flynn did have a phone conversation with the russian ambassador around that december 28th, 29th time frame. and during that statement that sean spicer and jason miller gave to reporters, there was no talk of michael flynn and the russian ambassador talking about sanctions. this was described as something of a courtesy call trying to st up a phone call or meet tg at some point between president trump and russian president vladimir putin. so it may be, and this is just me guessing here, that michael flynn did not initially tell the truth about this because he perhaps was trying to stay consistent with what the transition told the american people as to what was going on during the tra

shimon pro shimon has the details. >> the special counsel now has at least two people who are cooperating and providing information to investigators on the russia probe. next week's expect white house communications director hope hicks to be interviewed by the special counsel investigators. now she is key for investigators in the obstruction probe. she is said to be close to the president and was aboard air force one and helped draft a misleading statement from the president about a meeting that donald trump jr. helped put together from a russian woman claiming to have dirt on hillary clinton. now that meeting taking place at trump tower. so naturally, the special counsel has now included that into their probe into russia meddling, and whether or not anyone on the campaign or people close to the president were part of that. the next big question obviously is who else could perhaps face charges. who else will cooperate perhaps or indict. and that all still remains to be seen. and now with michael flynn's cooperation, it opens doors and avenues for the special counsel that he may have not h

shimon prokupecz with us on that. good morning, shimon. >> good morning. so yeah, so there was a series of tweets right, and one of them included where as you just said, that the president was aware that flynn lied to the fbi. pretty significant and certainly raised a lot of eyebrows because it goes to the heart of the obstruction case. that's why the special counsel was put together. one way, was to look at a possible obstruction case and that when the former fbi director was fired, did the president do that because of the russia investigation, because, as we know, according to comey, he said, can you let this go. the president said to comey, can you let this go. so then the special counsel comes in. this could all be used as part of a conspiracy, as part of a bigger case, which it seems the special counsel is building on whether people were lying, whether people were trying to mislead investigators and perhaps it stretches not just to the president, but there could be other people who are in on this so-called conspiracy to obstruct to prevent the fbi. th

shimon prokupecz is here with me now for more on that. this comes down to, joe is perfectly teeing it up, obstruction of justice. what are you learning what did dowd said? >> dowd, basically, obviously, people are pretty shocked by this statement. it came out of nowhere. this idea that president can't be investigated, you know, and i think the other thing he adds in the line sort of like that the president has every right to express his view of any case. certainly does. >> right. >> but this is what the special counsel was brought in to look at, brought in to look at a possible obstruction. it wasn't until comey, the former fbi director, was fired that the deputy attorney general decided you know what we no longer can investigate this and we need to bring in a special counsel to start looking at this. so, you know, the idea that he didn't know that mike flynn was under investigation, well that depends on if you believe the former fbi director because when he met with james comey at the white house, when he met with the president at the wh

so then shimon, that tweet went out with the president's handle leading whether it be the mueller team and the committee leader feinstein that there was responsibility with this tweet coming from the president. how might this be either redirecting energies or focus of these various investigations as it pertains to russia? >> this perhaps can be used as evidence in a case of obstruction that the president knew that michael flynn was under investigation for this. outside of that, when you think about it, the president knew that michael flynn was under investigation. we reported on it and he knew that the fbi questioned him about his contacts and the former russian ambassador. the attorney general, sally yates went to the white house concerned about some of those contacts and concerned that michael flynn was compromised and because of those contacts and because he lied to the vice president about the contacts. no matter what, the president before even this tweet knew that michael flynn was under investigation. just to back up what michael just said, look, our reporting has been that sally

i met shimon perez who met one of the great human beings on the planet. i met him in my 20 when we were in israel and he said israel has the frequency of terrorist attacks because of our proximity. one day the terrorists will figure out how to cross the ocean and america will have the same attacks because the enemy is democracy. the internet is the bridge across the ocean. i think that's what we are seeing more and more. >> very quickly, we have been reporting that he may have been angered by israel's attacks against the palestinian targets in gaza. there were earlier reports that he was saying something as the incident was going down involving support for isis. what if anything can you share with our viewers on that? >> there have been a number of reports on why he was angry. i don't put a lot of stock in any of them yet. i don't think it matters. he was angry. he was angry because of the economy and because of his job and our political positions. you are going to have angry people in new york. you have to look at the stees this kind of information that

didn't sign up to shimon. so i told him i wrote the song in two thousand and eight at the time i was reading a harry potter book to my son in the evening at bad times and and one night he said he wished he were white and because then he could be like his friends i mean the moment and all you have to do is paint that thing on his forehead and wear around glasses and he'd look like harry potter mr mimic a blouse that's lindsay else we have reports of and i wish him good but that made me realize that there's an acute shortage of dark skinned superheroes so i wrote the song and made a really nice video to go along with it. a musician most of us would. have. advised to. doesn't have the time but. i'm doing that that will be fun when they. have the money for that. i might as well like you and i don't like and i don't like. the last guy. this guy was long time that's a long maybe a long long time so we don't like. much money like. right now i'd like to be frank's talked to it's a high i can remember when i was a teen

shimone what else did feinstein say about this case being built? >> for her it was a point to make and one of the things she said it's been difficult to get at the truth in this investigation. she and members of her committee have been asking for documents from donald trump trump jr., from jared kushner and her point today was also to say that it appears at least on the special counsel side that they're building out perhaps a case for some kind of obstruction. we have two people who have admitted to lying to investigators and she revealed that she, too, is now looking at perhaps, some form of an obstruction. here's the sound with her. >> i think what we're beginning to see is the putting together of a case of obstruction of justi justice. i see it in the hyper attitude of the white house. the tweets. i see it most importantly in what happened with the firing of director comey and it is my belief that that is directly because he did not agree to lift the cloud of the russia investigation. that's obstruction of justice. >> and for the -- she's a demo

shimon, what did feinstein have to say about the russia probe and possible implications for the president? >> hey, fred. what she was getting at here today was that it has been very difficult. she said this. to get at the truth. it's a frustration that has been felt by many. including those investigators on the special counsel team. we know how two players that were part of the trump campaign, one of them worked in the white house now have been charged and have admitted and pleaded guilty about the center issue here and that is contacts with russian officials. what you see here is no doubt could be playing out into a bigger case and some kind of experience and more of an organized effort to lie, not admit the truth to investigators. feinstein touched on that today. here's what she said about her own committee wanting to investigate and start to build out an obstruction case. >> i think what we are beginning to see is the putting together of a case of obstruction of justice. i see it in the hyper phonetic attitude of the white house and the comments every day and the continual tweets. i se

shimon, thank you. keep digging. let's have a bigger conversation here with a couple of guests joining me now cnn legal analyst zelden who used to be special assistant. also with us jarret grat author of the threat matrix, and gloria borger senior analyst. let me start with you gloria, we thought we would talking tax cuts. and what a huge piece of information that dropped today. what was your first reaction when you heard about this? >> well, you know, my first reaction was we kind of knew this was going to come. but we weren't quite sure whether he was cooperating or not cooperating. now we have discovered that he is cooperating. and what is interesting and important, and michael knows so much more about this than i do, and probably garrett as well, but what is so important here is that in the statement of offense what we see is that flynn is telling them, you know, get him on lying, get him on lying about the sanctions, about the united nations vote, about turkey. what is very clear is that he says what he was doin

i had the good fortune to be in a meeting once with shimon perez, late great leader of israel. he said you have to have three parties to have a negotiation. we need to be that third party. what president trump has just done is removed us from being that third party. >> heidi, if palestinians believe this is the end of their hopes of ever claiming east jerusalem as their capital, then what happens to them? >> well, it certainly throws a bucket of cold water on what jared kushner was trying to do, which is to basically just bring the two sides to the table. and i think we have to not only look at what the palestinians are saying but what the broader muslim world is saying, that iran is already using this to say the muslim world needs to unite against the united states and also look at what this does for the broader security of americans both in the middle east and also in basically countries all across the muslim world who are going to now make americaning look like they have a target on their back. >> all right. i want to play part of what the mayor of jerusalem told nbc's ron a
