It does square with some of our intelligence agencies who believe that this may have been

a narco move on the president to try and get something that he wasn't giving them.

Confidential informants, obviously, they're coming out of that world. We'll keep digging on it,

Anderson. Always a pleasure. Happy Monday. I'm Chris Cuomo. Welcome to Primetime.
