| 0:00.0 | Welcome to The Investigation. I'm John Santucci, senior editorial producer here at ABC. |
| 0:11.9 | Chris Velasto is off, but joining me today is Catherine Faldors, our White House and Capitol Hill reporter. |
| 0:17.6 | And we wanted to zoom out and just sort of see where the road ahead looks for |
| 0:22.6 | President Trump and his legal team. We know Robert Mueller is heading up to the Hill in the next |
| 0:27.5 | couple of weeks, but we've got congressional investigations, investigations in New York, |
| 0:32.3 | Southern District probes, and the New York State Attorney General. So who better to break down |

| 1:05.8 | of playing drums and 45 years of playing drums. So I've got a tempo, and I think part of the |
| 1:09.2 | successor is having the right tempo. So I think I stayed in the group, so to speak. Well, I think you're leaving |
| 1:16.1 | the band right now. You know, you've got to recruit new band members, but you've got to stay in the |
| 1:19.5 | pocket, as they say, it's going to say. So we're more of that. You know you would. But listen, you know, where this is all moving forward now, right? |
| 1:29.7 | So Robert Mueller's investigation's done. |
| 1:31.8 | He's going to be testifying in the next week. |
