| 0:00.0 | You know, I said all along that I would not object to Bob going up to testify, but after I said that, |
| 0:08.6 | he indicated he was not interested in testifying and he held a press conference and issued a press |
| 0:15.0 | statement making it clear that his testimony really was the report itself and he wasn't going to go |
| 0:21.6 | beyond the report. So I was disappointed to see him subpoena because I don't think that serves |
| 0:26.5 | any purpose, dragging Bob Mueller up if the in fact is going to stick to the report. |
| 0:34.4 | There appears to be compelling evidence of the president's misconduct outside of the |
| 0:39.2 | four corners of the redacted version of the Mueller report and we will work to uncover that |
| 0:44.0 | evidence as well. Volume two of this report was not authorized under the law to be written. |
| 0:52.0 | It was written to a legal standard that does not exist at the Justice Department. |
| 0:59.2 | Hello and welcome to Trumpcast, I'm Virginia Heffernan. So we all have our favorite hearings of |

| 1:26.9 | way to prison. The way he gave his job description was amazing. What he said he did for a living |
| 1:33.0 | was lying for Mr. Trump. So many people have this as a job. Sarah Sanders lies for Mr. Trump. |
| 1:39.9 | Hope Hicks lies for Mr. Trump, Alan Dershwitz and Bill Barr and Mark Meadows and Mitch McConnell. |
| 1:45.9 | Lying for Mr. Trump is a growth sector. And when Trump said he'd create jobs, he has definitely |
| 1:51.4 | made careers of lying for Mr. Trump enterprises for dozens of people. Alas, he doesn't pay them |
| 1:58.1 | or it might help his flagging numbers. Anyway, the other thing that came from that |
| 2:02.4 | Cohen hearing is Michael Cohen's testimony that as he perceived Trump, whom he'd worked for for |
