Listen as Larry chats with Andrew McCarthy, a former assistant U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, regarding President Trump’s travel ban and his latest National Review article, The Antithesis of Obstruction.
O’Connor asked McCarthy about his bold claim regarding the Russia collusion:
O’Connor: How can you definitively say that the collusion narrative was a fraud?
McCarthy: Well, I think we have to separate the investigation from the collusion narrative that grew out of the investigation. So, there is an investigation into Russia’s interference with the election. And I think anybody who thinks that the Russians didn’t try to interfere with our election, as they always do, is really being ridiculous. But unfortunately the way this argument has shaken out, the price of admission of taking the Russians seriously seems to have been that you have to credit the possibility that Trump was in cahoots with the Russians – a proposition for which I don’t think there’s ever been any support. And we now know that they’ve looked at this for months and months and months and everybody from Dianne Feinstein, who’s had access to the intelligence, to Jim Comey, who talked to President Trump about this on several occasions, has said that Trump is not a suspect in this investigation and there is no evidence of collusion. That doesn’t mean there’s no evidence of Russia doing terrible things here. And again, that’s why I think these two things here have to be separated. I don’t mean to suggest that the Russia investigation is a fraud, and I say that clearly, it’s the collusion narrative that was [inaudible] out of the investigation.
An excerpt of the article is below:
The “collusion” narrative was a fraud, plain and simple. We know that now. Hopefully, it won’t take another six months to grasp a second plain and simple truth: Collusion’s successor, the “obstruction” narrative, is a perversion. [Read More]
