Watergate Prosecutor Questions Former Trump Aide On Live TV | The Beat With Ari Melber | MSNBC

Someone should explain to Caputo that you can't "fall into a perjury trap" if you just answer the questions truthfully.

[charlie]

Kinda hard to take a person serious when they have charcoal smeared on their face 😆

[deepthisdeepthis]

caputo is being less than candid when he speaks in the same breath regarding congressional testimony in a house controlled by republicans and a house controlled by democrats. AFAIK caputo has not once testified in the house since january 1, 2019 and a democrat lead house committee. who does he think he's kidding?

[freddiekruger]

He will plead the fifth if subpoena is issued they probably all will 😁(if so it will only prove they are guilty)

[theblade]

Perjury trap? You are not that important dude. No one is out to get you.

[MikelNaUsaCom]

Facts are not purgury traps... unless you lied previously and there is now information to prove that you lied.

[carrie]

All these Kreminals with Ashes on their heads...….bite me! He's the one just saw on Fox claiming he was going to refuse!! I don't think Congress is "asking"????

[thisisfyne]

lol did he just ask Akerman "are you new to this?" ??
what a clown

[ruthdepew]

The nature of an investigation is that whenever new information emerges, reinterviews of witnesses are often required.

It's almost like a dishonest man can't make a dishonest living anymore.

[pepe]

i'm starting to think every time someone says 'perjury trap' we might as well stamp them with 'guilty'. why'd they be concerned with perjury of all things? thats like saying being invited to your mates house is just a trap because they're going to catch you stealing their TV. its still you stealing the TV.

[guillermorexach]

Yeah, right.. I caputo, the defendant, clear myself of any wrongdoing, and hereby declare that I am innocent of all charges.

[ArfArfBarkBark]

Caputo's voice is shaky...he's definitely scared of going to prison.

[ingemeinzer]

Does he really think that the ash on his forehead will help?

[camillepotter]

I really love Ari Melber's reports. He really knows how to get his guests to discuss the issues, even when they disagree, and leave on a good note. I know I am really going to get to learn something--very grateful!

[Bobby_Digital]

This guy is absolutely guilty.... Hope he goes straight to jail.... and you know he’s only wearing the ash for show, probably was praying for the first time today not to goto prison

[saddistGtown]

One of the surest signs of guilt is aggressive, agitated and disjointed statements...

[eleatashepherd]

If you are a LIAR, you have to be afraid, if you are telling the Truth, You have nothing to Fear.. Tell the TRUTH and it will set you Free

[BillBadMule]

I Bet Roger Stone was Stoned when he put that Nixon Tat on his back LOL
