Kelly Weill, reporter for The Daily Beast, and Peter Van Voorhis, reporter for Red Alert Politics, discuss Trump's Saturday tweet and whether it could implicate him in obstruction of justice.
After speaking with reporters Saturday and adamantly proclaiming that there was "no collusion" with the Russians, Trump took to Twitter. The president said that he fired Flynn for lying to Vice President Pence and to the FBI - the latter statement could implicate Trump in obstruction of justice. Van Voorhis adds that the conversation around the tweet may be overblown. If Michael Flynn does not say that Trump told him to speak to the Russians, he may have nothing to worry about.
Kelly discusses what Michael Flynn's collaboration with the FBI and special counsel Mueller might reveal about the investigation. She expects more to be revealed as the two work together. She also weighs in on why President Trump's attorney John Dowd claimed to have dictated the tweet, and what that means for Trump's legal team as a whole.

President Donald Trump wants his “big, beautiful” bill of tax breaks and spending cuts on his desk to be singed into law by Independence Day. And he’s pushing the slow-rolling Senate to make it happen sooner rather than later. Trump met with Senate Majority Leader John Thune at the White House early this week and has been dialing senators for one-on-one chats, using both the carrot and stick to encourage them to act. But it’s still a long road ahead for the bill. Senators want to make changes to protect Medicaid and to make sure some tax breaks become permanent. Elon Musk called the whole bill a "disgusting abomination.”
