    Judge Michael Mukasey said he still has not seen definitive
    evidence that the Trump campaign colluded with Russia in 2016 or
    that President Trump committed obstruction of justice.

    The former U.S. attorney general argued that Special Counsel
    Robert Mueller's Russia investigation is at the same place today
    as it was when Mueller took over the ongoing probe in May 2017.

    "We know that the Russians hacked. They hacked the Democrats,
    they hacked one of their functionaries. They did that [and] a
    bunch of Russians have been indicted for doing that," Mukasey
    said on "America's Newsroom." "But there's been no connection
    made between that and any activity by the Trump campaign."

    He added that the memos former FBI Director James Comey wrote
    about his private meetings with President Trump do not contain
    any evidence that Trump attempted to interfere in the Russia
    probe.

    "If Comey felt that he was put upon, you would expect to find
    that in the memos," Mukasey said.

    He concluded that he doesn't yet perceive any legal jeopardy for
    the president, and all the ominous headlines are purely
    speculative.

    "It's kind of like the guy who tells you, 'If we had some ham,
    we could have some ham and eggs, if we had some eggs.' There's
    nothing on either end of that."
