Close video The Rachel Maddow Show, 9/17/19, 9:00 PM ET Combative Lewandowski begrudgingly affirms Mueller report's truth Rachel Maddow reviews highlights of former Donald Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski before the House Judiciary Committee in which, despite his best efforts, he ultimately confirmed what the Mueller report said about his role in Trump’s effort to share tweet email save Embed The circumstances may not have seemed historic at first blush, but the House Judiciary...
It was, to be sure, a frustrating afternoon. Trump refused to allow his former White House aides to testify, and he instructed a private citizen – who never worked in the White House – not to answer relevant questions about alleged misdeeds he personally witnessed. The idea that the president has the authority to block legitimate federal investigations because he feels like is, to put it mildly, problematic.
But no one – not Lewandowski nor committee Republicans – seriously disputed the central theme of the day: that Trump had gone to extreme lengths in circumventing the entirety of the federal government to get Lewandowski to instruct then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions to publicly announce that the president had done nothing wrong and limit the scope of special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe in 2017. None of this was good news for Team Trump.

dhorton74 MaddowBlog Mr. Trump is rather clueless.
MaddowBlog 'As I said forth in the report after that investigation, if we had had confidence that the President clearly did not commit a crime, we would have said so,' Mueller said during brief remarks.

MaddowBlog Whatever🙄
MaddowBlog The flagrant acts of disrespect toward the House, the lying with feelings of impunity, the twisting of the truth and refusals to answer - all which undermine our justice system - will not end until the House starts issuing contempt citations AND places people into jail to think.
MaddowBlog Jesus even MSNBC commentators say this a waste of time
MaddowBlog It’s interesting how Trump puts on the record how pleased he is with the obstruction.
MaddowBlog And the Democrats are pissed they didn't get what they wanted
MaddowBlog Corey Lewandowski makes the need for impeachment hearings that much more clear and necessary.
MaddowBlog It was great. Corey knows how to make liberal heads spin.
MaddowBlog He was a belligerent ignoramus... JUST the kind of people this lifetime grifter finds fascinating... who still gives a damn what he thinks? About anything.
MaddowBlog Trump is too stupid to know Corey verified yesterday that trump attempted to obstruct justice. This will be in his articles of impeachment.
