JOHNSON, THANK YOU SO MUCH. THAT IS ALL IN FOR THIS EVENING.
THE RACHEL MADDOW STARTS RIGHT NOW.
>>> POP QUIZ. HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE HELD THE
POSITION OF PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES?
HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD THAT JOB?
IF YOU ANSWERED 45, IT IS UNDERSTANDABLE THAT YOU WOULD
ANSWER THAT WAY. EVERYBODY, INCLUDING OUR CURRENT
PRESIDENT CALLS DONALD TRUMP THE 45th PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED
STATES. BUT YOU KNOW WHAT?
IF WE'RE COUNTING HIM AS 45, TECHNICALLY THAT MEANS WE'RE
COUNTING GROVER CLEVELAND TWICE BECAUSE HE WAS THE 22nd AND 24th
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. AND I'M SURE THAT GROVER
CLEVELAND LOVES TO BE COUNTED TWICE.
BUT IF WE'RE TALKING ABOUT INDIVIDUAL PEOPLE, ONLY 44
PEOPLE INCLUDING THE CURRENT PRESIDENT HAVE ACTUALLY HELD
THAT JOB. HERE'S ANOTHER ITEM ON OUR QUIZ.
HOW MANY PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS HAVE WE HELD IN THIS COUNTRY.
THE ANSWER TO THAT IS 58. A LOT OF TWO-TERMERS AND ONE
FOUR TERMER. WE STARTED HAVING THEM IN THE
1700s, 1789. IN TERMS OF WHICH AMERICAN
PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION HAS BEEN THE MOST CONTENTIOUS, THAT IS UP
FOR DEBATE AND EVERY CENTURY HAS ITS CANDIDATE.
WHICH ONE WAS HEAVILY SCRUTINIZED AFTER THE FACT, THAT
IS PRETTY CLEAR THAT WE'RE LIVING IT RIGHT NOW.
THERE WERE HINTS BEFORE THE NOVEMBER ELECTION THAT SOMETHING
WAS OFF, SOMETHING WAS GOING ON IN THIS ONE THAT WAS DIFFERENT.
IT ALL SEEMED ALMOST TOO BIG TO GRASP AT THE TIME, IN THE MIDDLE
OF WHAT WAS ALREADY THIS INCREDIBLY INTERESTING CAMPAIGN,
THIS INCREDIBLY VOLATILE CAMPAIGN.
BUT IN THE MIDDLE OF ALL OF THAT THERE WAS AN EXTERNAL FOREIGN
DYNAMIC AT WORK. BEGINNING WITH THE NEWS LAST
SUMMER THAT THE E-MAIL SERVERS OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY
HEADQUARTERS HAD BEEN HACKED BY RUSSIAN HACKERS.
AND THE NEWS THAT VOTER REGISTRATION SYSTEMS IN AT LEAST
TWO STATES OR MAYBE TEN STATES OR MAYBE 20 STATES HAD BEEN
PROBED OR BREACHED TO SOME LEVEL BY AGAIN, HACKERS.
BY OCTOBER, A MONTH BEFORE THE ELECTION, THE UNITED STATES
INTELLIGENCE AGENCY CAME OUT AND SAID WHILE THEY COULDN'T AGREE
THAT IT WAS DEFINITELY THE RUSSIANS BEHIND THE VOTER
REGISTRATION HACKS, THEY SAID THEY WERE CONFIDENT THAT THE
RUSSIAN GOVERNMENT HAD DEFINITELY DIRECTED THE HACKING
OF THE DNC AND OTHER AMERICAN POLITICAL ORGANIZATIONS IN ORDER
TO QUOTE INTERFERE WITH THE U.S. ELECTION PROCESS.
SO THE BIZARRE STORY OUT OF ALL OF THE WEIRD STUFF THAT'S
HAPPENED IN AMERICAN ELECTIONS, THIS STORY, OUR STORY, OUR
GENERATION'S STORY OF THE BIZARRE RUSSIAN HACKING OF OUR
ELECTION, THAT STORY WAS AT LEAST STARTING TO EMERGE IN THE
WEEKS BEFORE THE ELECTION. BUT AT THE SAME TIME, YOU KNOW,
AS USUAL, A AS NORMAL, THERE WAA SUPER CONTENTIOUS FASCINATING
PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN GOING ON. AND THAT WAS VERY ENGROSSING AT
THE TIME. AND IT WAS NOT UNTIL AFTER THE
ELECTION THAT THE EXTENT OF THE RUSSIAN INVOLVEMENT IN OUR
PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION REALLY CAME TO LIGHT, AND THAT STARTED
WITH A STARTLING REPORT FROM THE "WASHINGTON POST" THAT CAME OUT
THE EVENING OF FRIDAY, DECEMBER 9th.
A REPORT THAT KIND OF BLEW ALL OTHER NEWS RIGHT OUT OF THE
WATER. SO WE HAD A WHOLE SHOW PLANNED
TONIGHT THAT HAD HONESTLY NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS TOPIC.
BUT THEN THE "WASHINGTON POST" JUST DROPPED THIS ASTONISHING
BOMBSHELL. IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THIS YET I'M
GOING TO PUT THE HEADLINE ON THE SCREEN SO YOU CAN SEE IT.
I'M GOING TO QUOTE THE LEAD DIRECTLY.
THE CIA HAS CONCLUDED THAT RUSSIA INTERVENED IN THE 2016
ELECTION TO HELP DONALD TRUMP WIN THE PRESIDENCY.
RATHER THAN JUST TO UNDERMINE CONFIDENCE IN THE U.S. ELECTORAL
SYSTEM. THEY'RE CITING OFFICIALS BRIEFED
ON THE MATTER, QUOTE, INTELLIGENCE AGENCIES HAVE
IDENTIFIED INDIVIDUALS WITH CONNECTION TO THE RUSSIAN
GOVERNMENT WHO PROVIDED WIKILEAKS WITH THOUSANDS OF
HACKED E-MAILS FROM THE DNC AND OTHERS INCLUDING HILLARY
CLINTON'S CAMPAIGN CHAIRMAN. THIS IS STUNNING STUFF.
ALL RIGHT. AND THIS HAS JUST BROKEN WITHIN
THE LAST HOUR IN THE "WASHINGTON POST."
THEY'RE REPORTING THAT THE CIA NOT ONLY CONCLUDED THAT THE
RUSSIANS INTERVENED IN THE ELECTION, STOLE INFORMATION,
PUBLICIZED STOLEN INFORMATION TO HELP DONALD TRUMP WIN THE
PRESIDENCY, BUT THE CIA GAVE ITS INFORMATION ABOUT RUSSIA TO THE
LEADERSHIP IN THE HOUSE AND THE SENATE.
AND THE WHTHE WHITE HOUSE WANTE MAKE A BIG PUBLIC BIPARTISAN
STAND AGAINST IT AND REPUBLICANS SAID NO.
MITCH McCONNELL SPECIFICALLY SAID NO.
NO. DON'T TELL THE PUBLIC.
AND SO WE HELD THE ELECTION WITH THE LEADERSHIP IN CONGRESS
KNOWING FULL WELL WHAT RUSSIA WAS DOING AND WE ALL WENT TO
VOTE WHILE THEY SAT ON THAT. UNTIL NOW.
UNTIL THE POST PUBLISHED THIS TONIGHT.
THAT WAS FRIDAY NIGHT, DECEMBER 9th, 2016.
BREAKING NEWS FROM THE "WASHINGTON POST."
THE FIRST OF MANY FRIDAY NIGHTS WHEN I WOULD HAVE TO WORK LATE.
BASICALLY SINCE THEN, SINCE DECEMBER 9th WE HAVE BEEN IN
KIND OF A SUSTAINED PERIOD OF VERY DISTRACTING, VERY
ENGROSSING POLITICAL CRISIS. THIS HAS FELT LIKE A SUSTAINED
POLITICAL CRISIS. AS SINCE THEN WE'VE LEARNED MORE
AND MORE AND MORE AFTER THE EXTENT OF RUSSIAN INVOLVEMENT
THE ELECTION AND THE INVESTIGATIONS INTO THE TRUMP
CAMPAIGN'S CONTACTS WITH RUSSIA. BUT DURING AND AFTER THE
CAMPAIGN. WATCH THE DATE STAMPS ON THESE
AS THEY FLY BY. JUST AS WE'RE COMING ON THE AIR
WE GOT NEWS THE FORMER CIA DIRECTOR JAMES WOOLSEY TONIGHT
HAS ABRUPTLY QUIT THE TRUMP TRANSITION TEAM WITH NO
EXPLANATION. TONIGHT AFTER SAYING FOR WEEKS
THAT THERE WOULD BE NO SENATE OR HOUSE INVESTIGATION OF THIS
MATTER, THE SENATE INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE FINALLY SAID, YEAH,
WE'LL LOOK INTO THIS. ALL OF A SUDDEN THIS IS STARTING
TO FEEL LIKE THE MOST IMPORTANT POLITICAL STORY CERTAINLY IN THE
WORLD. WITH ONE WEEK TO GO BEFORE WE
ARE SUPPOSED TO SWEAR IN DONALD TRUMP AS PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED
STATES. THE "THE NEW YORK TIMES" HAS
JUST PUBLISHED A STORY TITLED "INTERCEPTED RUSSIAN
COMMUNICATIONS PART OF INQUIRY INTO TRUMP ASSOCIATES."
THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A VERY INFLAMMATORY, VERY HOT STORY.
THESE NEW DETAILS COMING OUT THE EVE OF THE INAUGURATION IS A
BOMBSHELL. OKAY WE HAVE MAJOR BREAKING NEWS

AND WHEN THEY KNEW IT. I WANT TO BRING YOU SOME
BREAKING NEWS THAT THE "THE NEW YORK TIMES" JUST POSTED.
THIS HAS JUST GONE UP SINCE WE WENT ON THE AIR.
I'VE BEEN MARKING IT WITH MY TRUSTY HIGHLIGHTER.

THE WASHINGTON POST BREAKING NEWS JUST THIS EVENING THAT WILL
FRANKLY TIE YOUR SOCKS IN A KNOT IF YOU WERE THINKING THAT MAYBE
THE WHOLE TRUMP SHERIFF RUSSIA THING WAS GOING TO BE
INVESTIGATED IMPARTIALLY AND AGGRESSIVELY BY CONGRESS.
THE TWO REPUBLICAN CHAIRMAN OF THE INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEES IN
THE HOUSE AND THE SENATE, THEY HAVE BOTH ADMITTED TO THE
"WASHINGTON POST" THAT THEY HAVE BEEN CALLING REPORTERS OFF THE
RECORD AT THE REQUEST OF THE WHITE HOUSE TO TELL REPORTERS
THAT THERE'S NOTHING TO THESE STORIES.
WE INTERRUPT THIS REGULARLY SCHEDULED BROADCAST FOR SOME
BREAKING NEWS TONIGHT REGARDING ATTORNEY GENERAL JEFF SESSIONS.
WE'VE AGREED THAT JEFF SESSIONS HAS AGREED TO AMEND HIS
TESTIMONY. IN HIS TESTIMONY AT HIS
CONFIRMATION HEARING AT THE SENATE IN JANUARY, HE FAILED TO
DISCLOSE MEETINGS THAT HE HAD WITH THE A RUSSIAN GOVERNMENT
OFFICIAL WHEN SHE WAS ASKED ABOUT TRUMP CAMPAIGN MEETINGS
WITH THE OFFIFICIALS. HE TOLD THE SENATE THAT HE
DIDN'T MEET WITH ANY RUSSIANS BUT HE DID.
HE WILL NOW CHANGE HIS TESTIMONY.
WE'RE FOLLOWING THE BREAKING NEWS TONIGHT THAT THE FIRE
NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISER RETIRED ATTORNEY GENERAL MICHAEL
GLIN WAS FIRED FROM THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION AFTER 20 DAYS ON
THE JOB. TONIGHT HE'S ASKING FOR IMMUNITY
FROM PROSECUTION IN EXCHANGE FOR HIS TESTIMONY IN THE
TRUSH-RUSSIA SCANDAL. WE HAVE TO START TONIGHT WITH
BREAKING NEWS WHICH HAS JUST BEEN PUBLISHED BY THE WASHINGTON
POST. THE WASHINGTON POST REPORTS THAT
A FISA FISA WARRANT WAS ISSUED SUMMER TO MONSTER CARTER PAGE'S
COMMUNICATIONS. I'M NEVER GOING TO GET ANOTHER
FRIDAY NIGHT OFF IN MY LIFE. I'M TELLING YOU.
FRIDAY NIGHTS ARE VERY NEWS HEAVY IN THE TRUMP
ADMINISTRATION. ACCORDING TO NIGHT'S FRONT PAGE
SCOOP IN THE WASHINGTON POST, MIKE FLYNN WAS WARNED EXPLICITLY
THAT HIS CONVERSATIONS WITH RUSSIAN OFFICIALS WAS QUOTE
UNDOUBTEDLY BEING MONITORED BY THE FBI AND THE NSA.
THERE ARE INTERESTING QUESTIONS ABOUT WHAT'S HAPPENING WITH THE
DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE AND PAUL MANAFORT.
IS JEFFEFF SESSIONS INVOLVED INY WORK AT THE DEPARTMENT OF
JUSTICE CONCERNING PAUL MANAFORT OR IS HE RECUSED.
WE CAN REPORT TONIGHT THAT THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT WILL NOT SAY.
WE STARTED ASKING YESTERDAY. WE ASKED THROUGHOUT THE DAY
TODAY. WE HAVE ASKED IT FIVE TIMES IN
FIVE DIFFERENT WAYS INCLUDING ME MAKING THE REQUEST MYSELF
PERSONALLY MULTIPLE TIMES IN AS MANY DIFFERENT WAYS AS I COULD
THINK OF IT. THEY WILL NOT SAY WHETHER OR NOT
HE'S RECUSED. HE HAS RECUSED ON FLYNN THEY
SAY. HE IS RECUSED ON THINGS RELAT R
TO THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN BROADLY. THEY WON'T SAY ABOUT MANAFORT.
SO WE HAVE NEWS TO BREAK TONIGHT.
ANOTHER SUBPOENA HAS BEEN ISSUED AS PART OF THE ONGOING
INVESTIGATIONS INTO PRESIDENT TRUMP'S ASSOCIATES.

INVESTIGATORS SUBPOENAED RECORDS RELATING TO A $3.5 MILLION LOAN
