EXCERPT:
LIEU: “My response is it may be this is the greatest political witch hunt in history or it may be the greatest political crime in history. And that’s why I am so pleased that a special counsel has been investigated to see in fact what has happened.”
BERMAN: “Well, if his tweet was hyperbolic, then the statement you just made was equally hyperbolic. The greatest political crime in American history? That’s a high bar, sir, considering of course Watergate.”
LIEU: “If there was collusion with the Russians, that is far beyond what happened with Watergate. Collusion with the Russians, in fact, would be the greatest political crime in history that then resulted in the election of a president. And that is why I am so pleased to have this special counsel. And keep in mind, our democratic institutions are being tested like never before. Our courts have stood up. Yesterday the Department of Justice stood up. Now it is time for Congress to stand up and investigate as well.”
