Here is that crazy interview that MSNBC's Katy Tur had with former campaign aide Sam Nunberg. Update!

Courtesy of NBC News: 

Sam Nunberg, a former Donald Trump campaign aide, plans to defy a subpoena from special counsel Robert Mueller requesting campaign documents related to the Russia investigation, saying Monday that it would be "really funny" if he were arrested. 

"The president's right, it's a witch hunt," Nunberg told MSNBC's Katy's Tur. 

"I'm not going to cooperate when they want me to come into a grand jury for them to insinuate that (former Trump adviser) Roger Stone was colluding with (Wikileaks founder) Julian Assange," he added.

Nunberg, who has already been interviewed by Mueller's office, called the idea that Trump or his campaign colluded with Russia the "biggest joke," but he suggested — without any evidence — that Mueller may have something on the president. 

"I think they may," said Nunberg, who served briefly as a campaign adviser. "I think that he (Trump) may have done something during the election. But I don't know that for sure." He didn't provide any details.

I like how at one point he says that Trump did nothing wrong, and then only minutes later suggests that Trump "may have done something during the election."

My favorite part of this exchange is at the end when it seems that Nunberg suddenly realizes that he may have screwed himself and asks Katy Tur what she thinks Mueller might do to him for not complying with the subpoena.

I think I know exactly Mueller might do, and I am certain that Sam Nunberg is going to regret his defiance.

Here was something interesting that former US Attorney Preet Bharara tweeted right after this segment aired.

Even if you have someone's emails from other parties to them or from the service provider, you ask for them anyway. Among other things you learn a lot when people selectively disclose.

I think is more than likely.

So all Nunberg is accomplishing here is putting a bullseye on this back and alerting the Mueller team that he may have something to hide.

Before I close this post I just want to say that I thought Katy Tur did an EXCELLENT job of conducting this interview and got Nunberg to divulge things that I am certain his lawyer would have wrestled him to the ground to keep him from saying.

Nunberg jumped from this interview to CNN, and that interview paled in comparison to this one with Katy Tur.

And that is why for me MSNBC is the best cable news program on the air today.

Update: Later Nunberg showed up on MSNBC again this time on Ari Melber's show.

There were three lawyers there, and ALL of them told him he needed to cooperate, and genuinely seemed worried for him.

Update 2: And now this.

Nunberg tells me he'll probably cooperate with Mueller in the end. He just doesn't want to make it easy. He thinks it isn't fair that they are asking for his personal communications. As of 8pm he says he had not talked to his lawyer.

Okay, I don't know about anybody else, but I'm a little dizzy.

Now we are hearing that ousted US Attorney Preet Bharara was also investigating new HHS Secretary Tom Price. And the plot thickens.

Courtesy of TPM: 

Ousted U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara was overseeing an investigation into current Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price’s stock trades when he was fired, according to an unnamed source cited by ProPublica Friday. 

According to a source “familiar with the office,” ProPublica reported, Bharara’s employees were looking into stock trades made by Price, seemingly those that came to light during his confirmation process. 

Before and during his confirmation hearing, Democrats accused Price of abusing his office for his own personal benefit, perhaps illegally. 

Price bought stock in Zimmer Biomet the same month, March 2016, that he introduced legislation to delay the implementation of a measure that would have negatively affected that company.

So to be clear Preet Bharara was investigating Fox News for paying hush money to keep employees quiet about sexual harassment,  Donald Trump's ties to Russia, AND accusations of insider trading by the new HHS Secretary?

Oh yeah, he clearly had to go.
