7:39 am
"meet the press," chuck todd. good morning, chuck. >> good morning, rosemary. >> attorney general jeff sessions he will give the senate amended testimony about his contacts with russia's ambassador before the election. did this controversy eclipse the president's address to congress this week and is it sidetracking his agenda? >> i think it absolutely did. i think russia is absolutely on the verge of consuming this presidency. it's i think becoming a major distraction on capitol hill. i think the question is going to be how do republicans figure out how to compartmentalize this distraction? is it so politicized at this point that congress can't really do both focusing on health care and tax reform and this investigation? does it need to be in the hands of an independent prosecutor or some sort of independent commission? we can make an argument that, if you have an independent prosecutor which on one hand may raise the stakes for this russia
7:40 am
investigation, at the same time it can serve as a way to put it in a box and buy the white house some time to focus on policy, so that way when questions about russia come in, they can say that's a question for the independent prosecutor, let them deal with it. we're going to focus on the agenda. i think right now without that ability to compartmentalize, this thing is going to -- every week it's going to eat into the president's ability to drive an agenda. >> chuck, i'm going to pack a lot into this next question. looking ahead to the week coming up, we've got a new executive order on immigration that's expected. also i'm guessing this week a lot of people will be spending more time analyzing the president's tweets from this weekend, both yesterday morning and this morning. talk to us about it. >> well, first of all, note of caution on the new travel order. we've been warned of a new travel order for three or four weeks and it keeps getting delayed because i think they're trying to write it narrowly
7:41 am
enough that it passes legal muster and they keep running into legal brick walls every time they write a version of it. i think the president's saturday morning tweet storm isn't going to go away easily. the allegation is so serious that either one deserves, if it's true, this is the biggest scandal since watergate and that deserves a thorough investigation, and it's just as scandalous if it's not true and it's an allegation this president made against a former president that's totally unsubstance eighted and that would be worthy of investigation. it will leave a mark for sure. >> moderator of "meet the press," chuck todd. thanks, chuck. >> you got it. >> this morning chuck will discuss the russian connection on "meet the press" right here at 10:30 on nbc 10. we'll be right back.
7:43 am
