"Harsanyi at the federalist very important column today He's an important columnist I like reading him I usually agree with him and I certainly do in this one Plenty of people are above the law James clapper lied under oath to Congress about spying on the American people He's above the law John Brennan lied about a domestic spying operation on Senate staffers He's above the law and unlike Trump adviser Peter Navarro Obama's attorney general Eric holder was never going to be handcuffed and thrown in prison for ignoring a congressional subpoena He of course is above the law Trump's 2016 opponent Hillary Clinton also pretty high above the law Then Secretary of State set up a private server in her home to circumvent transparency surrounding her slush fund foundation She sent a 110 emails containing Mark classified information 36 of those emails contained secret information 8 of the email chains contained top secret information every one of those instances was a potential felony punishable with up to ten years in prison We know this because we heard it from James Comey then FBI director who noted that Hillary had been extremely careless in conducting her business but Comey didn't recommend charges because he claimed the state couldn't prove Clinton's intent even though gross negligence not intent was the only standard he needed Gross negligence and extreme carelessness are synonyms Comey concocted a new standard to protect Clinton because she is above the law It's a good article It goes on and on insights more examples I would say James Comey also by the way is above the law Andrew mccabe His henchmen there at the FBI also above the law

John Solomon Unpacks the Decision to Investigate Trump
"Some more information and another story about how the decision was made to investigate Trump and how that was actually just a politicized thing, which we all knew, but again, now it's coming out this much later that that also was purely politically driven. Yeah, this is a very important thing. Citizens united day bossy conservative watchdog group of file to foil lawsuit for your battle. They finally got some early documents. What these are are interviews that key players in the Russia investigation gave to the Justice Department watchdog the inspector general. And what the attorney general Loretta lynch former attorney general for president Obama, Joe Biden revealed is that the effort to begin raising questions about Donald Trump and Russia collusion began much earlier than July 31st, 2016 when operation crossfire hurricane that now discredited Russia collusion probe. It actually began in the spring and it began with the New York FBI office opening up counterintelligence inquiry on Carter page, one of the advisers to Donald Trump. And though this would be a low level thing that, by the way, raises a lot of questions in itself because Carter page was a CIA asset, no reason to suspect he was up the wrongdoing. It got all the way to the top of James Comey and Andrew mccabe very quickly. That's odd. Very odd for that to come in. And they go to Loretta lynch and say, hey, we may have a problem with the Trump adviser just letting you know, sidebar conversation. But probably the right thing to do is just give Donald Trump a defensive briefing. Let him know that there might be Russians targeting his campaign. Now that would have been the right thing to do. But that's not what James Comey, Andrew mccabe, ultimately, do they open up the ultimately open up that crazy investigation that gets discredited. And it basically turns out to be a political dirty trick carried out by Hillary Clinton and her team. But imagine how much history could have changed if back in the springtime, Andy mccabe and James Comey did what lynch suggested. And just did a defensive briefing three years of the Trump presidency, probably wouldn't have been a squandered.

John Solomon on the FBI's Million Dollar Offer to Christopher Steele
"Going to ask an indelicate question. When is the first time what year did an article appear under your byline? Give me a date. March 2017 is the first time I started to unravel with no, no, no, no, no. The first article you ever wrote as a journalist. Oh my gosh, I was 16 years old, so let me do the math on that. It would have been 19 80 5. Okay, 1985. So almost 40 years ago, 37 years in the business. I have to ask you, have you ever in any type of case? Heard of the FBI offering a $1 million against a political candidate for dirt. Have you ever in 37 years have you ever heard that? This town, this type of money only is reserved for people like I'm the most wanted list, like the most wanted terrorism. They offer between one and 5 million. If you get one of those guys, I never heard it offered up against an American, never heard it up, offered up during an election. Never heard it offered up against a sitting presidential candidate and eventual future president. And more importantly, not only have I not heard it, I interviewed lots of FBI agents and experts in former assistant directors, all of them said to the T this is insane. We would never do this. This had to come from the 7th floor of the FBI. Meaning the leaders, should we? Yeah, James Comey and Andrew mccabe.

"Billy Cunningham and of course to one of the leaders in the Congress is doctor congressman bread wenstrom who's gone through quite a bit in his years in Congress and it kind of began on the national consciousness a few years ago when representative Steven scalise was gunned down by a left wing activist who was watching Rachel maddow and listening. He was a Bernie Sanders supporter and he was sent to Washington in his own mind to kill a bunch of Republicans, but one can not imagine what's happening now with president Trump and you've gone through a lot of congressmen as far as the ability of the FBI and the DoJ to separate Republican from Democrat and my mind if Democrats do the same or worse things than Republicans. They get a Texas El Paso. If Republicans don't abide by all the rules and the regulations, they get, oh, hell's breaking loose. So can you tell me whether or not you think there's different rules for thee and not for me when it comes to the DoJ and the FBI? Talking about think that that's the case. And too many things have happened since I've been in Congress. It lead me to doubt and lead me to not have trust in certain components of the FBI. I will say that I want to mention what happened in Cincinnati just last week with an attack on the FBI office there. And our FBI responded appropriately. They did everything they could to try and give this man a chance to live and he chose differently. And that man is responsible for his own actions, not with anybody else said or did. And I will say the same thing about the guy who tried to kill us at the baseball field and those that misbehaved and basically invaded the capital, if you will. I say the same thing. They're responsible for their own actions. But the situation we're in right now certainly leaves you scratching your head when you see the inconsistencies of what has taken place. Sandy Berger served under the Clinton administration and he was taking classified documents very clearly intentionally out into under his clothing. And he was charged with a misdemeanor. Hillary Clinton. We know James Comey. This is recent history. He stands up and said she had all these classified documents on her own server, which she should not have had. And also not only that she destroyed some of the evidence and nothing happened to her. So it raises the question of what are they really up to or are these agencies political? And I can go to the shooting at the baseball field where this man who tried to kill as many Republicans as he possibly could. He had names of Republicans in his pocket. He was camping out for two months by the baseball field before he launched the attack. He made sure that these were Republicans by asking a few people that were leaving practice early. 136 rounds were fired that day in the capital, police weren't there undercover with Steve scalise. He would have killed 20 to 30 members and staff of Congress and changing the balance of power in the House of Representatives. Which I consider an insurrection, but keep all that in mind and understand that the FBI, the only agency, the other law enforcement Alexandria, you know, they called this terrorism, et cetera. The FBI came to us and said that this was just a temp for suicide by cop. Well, our jaws dropped. And if yours don't, that's amazing, because you think about that, you know, if you want suicide by cop, you just pull a gun on a cop, and it's over in usually with one bullet. That was not the case here. But why did the FBI come forward and say that? We still don't know. And one can assume some things. Andrew mccabe, who was very much a part of the Russian collusion hoax, and the FBI upper level involvement with that. Not the lower level FBI. I want to be clear. This is upper level FBI. And we're involved with all of that. This is the same guy. So maybe he didn't want it to be said that a Democrat, a liberal, tried to kill a bunch of Republicans because it doesn't sit there narrative. And the FBI during this entire thing never interviewed one of us that were there that day. Not one. They're an investigative body. This event happens. You have all these members of Congress there and none of us were interviewed and then they come and tell us it was suicide by cop. We've been fighting that for some time and we didn't see Christopher wray on the intelligence committee for four years and when I finally did explain the details of the day and questioned how they could come up with that solution. He then changed it to domestic filing extremism. But that's not enough. We want to see the case file. We have oversight over these agencies. We fund these agencies. We are a government of the people. And so we are responsible on behalf of the American people trying to get as much transparency as we possibly can out of our agencies because we have to decide if they get money or not to continue their mission. And they have still not let us see the case file. And you have two members on the intelligence committee that have been denied this. They were actually there that day. What's the possible reason? The guy's dead. It's over. What's the reason? Yeah, there's no further investigation and we brought that up. Trent Kelly, who's a two star general in the military and also an attorney and a former prosecutor. He said, this man's dead. You have no reason. They make up their rules. They say, well, it's our practice not to tell you things. You don't get to do that. This is who we are. And so those things are going to change. And they have to change because they have to be honesty and transparency. We want to know the lessons learned. How did they get it so wrong? Did it come from the acting director? We want to know that. Look, we need the FBI. We do need an agency like this to protect us. But they have to understand they have to be transparent, especially with the committee that has oversight over them or else it's going to be difficult for us to fund them. We're about truce Jeff and the American way. We want the answers that we want. But

Would the FBI Really Plant Evidence? Julie Kelly Weighs In
"Julie, let me ask you, you were talking about how the FBI has a track record of planting evidence. I have said gingrich has said in president Trump has said, I hope they weren't planting some stuff at Mar-a-Lago, and immediately we're all smeared as conspiracy theorists. Enlighten us about the FBI's track record on planting evidence. Well, we have to look no further, of course, in the infamous steel dossier, which was fake evidence planted not only throughout the media throughout Congress, but of course presented to a secret court, not once, but four times and presented by the FBI, signed off on by James Comey, and then Andrew mccabe. So what was interesting, Charlie, is that I've been covering the retrial of the remaining two defendants in a Whitmer fed napping case. And what came up yesterday in opening arguments by defense attorney was talking about how an FBI informant planted material for an explosive device in the truck of his client, the defendant, and then when he was arrested by the FBI, the FBI collected that and used it as evidence against him.

Andrew McCabe: Cincinnati Shooter Is a Rallying Cry for Other Extremists
"Mccabe Andrew mccabe you know said this He said about the Cincinnati I told you earlier about the incident at the FBI Cincinnati office that happened earlier today still getting details about that But mccabe said the Cincinnati shooter could serve as a rallying cry for a similar unhinged extremist violent people If there was ever something to point to that summarizes where we are today in America it's this You've got a guy who lied to the FBI four times Who didn't go to jail didn't face legal trouble Who then got a plum job as a CNN contributor who lied to the FBI and they're going after president Trump about national archive stuff Or if you remember Peter strzok gave immunity to Hillary Clinton's people but then stuck it to Michael Flynn And I told you earlier they want this They want violence They want the midterm elections to be about this I honestly think that's part of the reason that they sent the FBI to go after president Trump I think they're trying to stir things up So unfortunately we live in a country where there is an unequal application of the law But you know in some degree that's the way it is right now We've got to fight to change it But everyone's got to be smart because this is what they want They want to make an example after you

The FBI Did All That... For What?
"So we learned that a little more than 24 hours ago, the former president of the United States had his home Mar-a-Lago rated in Florida by the FBI. The search allegedly, now again, we don't know the full extent of this seems to be centered around whether or not he may have taken some classified materials when he departed the Oval Office. And the thinking was that they would then be in Palm Beach, Florida. And so the FBI was there to try and find them. This is kind of wild. What could he have possibly have taken? So that's one question, right? And that's one that Andrew mccabe, who I believe now works for CNN is out there asking mccabe who got fired by Trump from the FBI? So mccabe is asking these questions. A lot of people are thinking maybe could it be something more? We don't know. We don't know, but we know that there's some concern that not only have we just descended into banana republic territory, but in fact, this may be an overreach by our government. Now, again, we'll see where it all shakes out. We'll see what they have, but some judge signed off on this. And the last experience we had with a judge signing off on something to go after Donald Trump just happened to be that fake dossier. And you said to yourself, how could it be that our FBI wouldn't have investigated that more properly before asking a judge to sign off on that to actually spy on an American citizen? Well, now we're looking at a situation where a judge has authorized the search, the search of his home,

Election officials and others had argued that drop boxes are a secure and convenient way to return ballots.

Kash Patel: 'We're Seeing the Politicization of the National Security Apparatus of the U.S.'
"Our government in a variety of different roles. You were a partner with Devin Nunes in uncovering and masking. And later, I want to ask you about our friend Durham and how that entire project is progressing in your opinion. But I just want to ask you kind of more broadly, can you talk about the threats that the United States security state, the whole security apparatus poses against either conservative Americans or Christian Americans or what would be considered disagreeable political opinions and tie that together with what you uncovered in the Russia investigation with Donald Trump and how they entrap Donald Trump and they use the fisa court surveillance. Talk a little bit about that. Yeah, that's a great question. Look, it's all interconnected as you were alluding to right there. Basically, the sum and substance is what we are seeing as the politicization of the national security apparatus in the United States. The one apparatus that is supposed to be a political. The one apparatus from Donald Trump came in and said to me, when I was running his counter terrorism programs or was his deputy director of national intelligence or later over at DoD, was this is what we're doing. We're going to end the forever wars. We're going to wipe out Al-Qaeda senior leadership. We're going to kill the emirs of ISIS. Take out Soleimani, return American hostages, seal our southern border, prohibit Chinese fentanyl and opioids from pouring in and killing our youth. These are things that are apolitical and that you would think all Americans would want especially Americans who have children would want for their youth. And when Donald Trump got elected, that narrative got blown up. And it started with the Russia gate narrative, which I was fortunate enough to be the chief investigator on for chairman Nunes who wrote the Nunes memo. We wrote a report. We basically showed the largest criminal enterprise perpetuated by the Democratic Party and the Hillary Clinton campaign and intentionally faulty actors and Andrew mccabe and James Comey and clapper over in the FBI and IC to go to an intelligence court and say lying to an intelligence court just to surveil their opponent because they didn't like the guy.

out there about connections and money and donations and stuff and it made it appear And it looked bad It looked like Andrew mccabe's wife was being influenced by the Democrat party during the 2016 presidential election which of course is a damaging inference if you're the deputy director of the FBI or a manager in the FBI correct So the allegation is an Andrew mccabe leaked the story to a journalist about the investigation of Hillary Clinton to make it look like he was like a hard nosed guy and he wasn't being influenced by Hillary and stuff like that Well they didn't investigation

The Dan Bongino Show
How Thirsty Was the FBI for Michael Sussman's False Trump-Russia Claims?
"Just to kind of sum up where we are now. This break in the SPI geh case on Friday was important because it shows Hillary Clinton working with the FBI and a group of attorneys to fake these connections between Trump and Russia. And it shows an FBI more than willing to take the information in and eager and looking for an excuse to get in front of a judge and say it was real and the problem is, they kept flooding the zone. Hillary Clinton, with all of these sources say Trump's colluding with Russia whatever, and they kept telling the FBI they were working with the DNC and Hillary And it created a problem for the FBI because they couldn't tell a judge that So they needed a clean source. They needed a white knight to come in there. Someone clean as the driven snow with a clean C B. Oh, no, no. These people are just in here to tell us about Trump. They have no ulterior motives whatsoever. How do we know that? Because we know On September 19th of 2016 this white knight showed up. According to the allegations, the FBI and the indictment on Friday Michael Sussman, who is a lawyer working with Mrs Clinton, this is why I'm telling you, it's a bigger deal than you think. This guy is connected to everyone. There's no way John Door, um, locked him up for nothing. So he comes into the FBI office. And he says, I have information about Trump colluding with Russia. And according to the allegation, he says, Oh, I'm not working with anybody. I'm not here on behalf of any client. I'm just here giving you potential information about a criminal conspiracy. And the FBI is like yes, finally. Finally The FBI is like this is just great. We gotta sources clean. We can put his information down in a fight application. We can spy on Trump and we won't have to lie and tell a judge, you know, uh, cover up for Hillary Clinton or anything like that. So, it says. In the end I and the FBI's press release that suspects showed up September 19th 2016. Why is this suspicious? Because you learn later on If you watch my show today, the podcast you learn right now on the radio show. If you read the Inspector General Michael Horowitz report who looked at this entire story. There's a really interesting nugget in there again. Hat tip. Our friend full Nelson on social media is all over this stuff. Here it is. Remember, I want you to pay attention to something right here. The date The lawyer walks in. The FBI office is September 1920 16, where he meets with the FBI. And this is their clean source. Finally. They've been hearing all summer about Trump and the Russians and all the sources are dirty. They're telling people that working for Hillary, this is the one guy who said according to the indictment. No, no, I'm not working for anyone. They felt like they had it. How do I know the FBI is in on this? What I think. Let me read to you a piece of this footnote here. From the Horowitz report. The only express direction. We found that Andrew McCabe, who was the deputy director at the time gave regarding the use of a confidential human source concerned. A former confidential human source who contacted an FBI agent FBI Field office in late July. 2016 to report information from a colleague runs an investigative firm hired by two entities, the DNC as well as another individual to explore Donald Trump's long standing ties to Russian entities. So in of this part, one of the footnote, McCabe, the deputy director of the FBI knows that people are piling into FBI offices as early as July of 2016 who are working for Hillary and the DNC. Got it. Okay. Moving on. Good footnote goes on. The former confidential human source also gave the FBI agent a list of individuals and entities who surfaced in the firm's examination of Trump, which the former CHS described as mostly public source material. In mid September. 2016 Andrew McCabe told senior Special Agent one to instruct the FBI agent from the field office not to have any further contact with the former confidential human source and not to accept any information regarding the crossfire.

"Okay, a few other things here that I wanted to mention to you. An ex FBI official. This is this is Andrew McCabe. You know the guy that Donald Trump went after, um, used to be the, uh, I believe it is the number two guy in the in the FBI. Yeah. He was the FBI's deputy director from 2016 to 2018 and then also was the acting director of the FBI for a while. He was on TV over the weekend at CNN, and he pointed out that there's this January 18th thing coming were the people that I was just referring to these people who believe that they're patriots. Because they have been duped. By right wing billionaires and talk show hosts and right wing media that are just laughing all the way to the bank. The right wing billionaires are using these poor, pathetic dupes to keep their taxes low in their companies deregulated. And the right wing media. I mean, you know the Murdochs and friends and they're making billions literally billions of dollars in profits. Off this kind of stuff laughing all the way to the bank. And And so they're so these dupes the soccer's the rubes who are buying into this Trump has been into this stuff. They're organizing the second rally in in at the U. S Capitol. Now the good news is it's on a Saturday. So Congress isn't going to be in session. You know there's not going to be anybody there. So it's probably not going to be that big a deal. But I mean, you know, in August, there was a guy who was critical of Democrats who said that he had car bomb He had D. C shut down for about six hours in April, Capitol police officer was murdered. After a man ran his vehicle into him at the Canada capital.

He was rated in april and pled guilty in august. And we have the same special master.

Why not and we're in primetime right now for the charging decision for matt gaetz. So i'm going to go with ingersoll angles and gates and But you know we did have greenberg. Push his sentencing back so he could keep talking about all the crime ing. I don't know and we haven't heard there hasn't been any reporting about whether or not that would push back. The original public reporting that said a charging decision would come for gates in july or august for my final pick. I'm gonna go with a calamari plea agreement in the manhattan.

"Subject to the jurisdiction united states conspire to overthrow put down or destroy by force. The government of the united states or to levy war against them or to oppose by force the authority of or by force to prevent hinder or delay the execution of any law of the united states i e the certification of the election. How is that not a federal crime and and do you think the department of justice has enough predication to at least open an investigation into into this. Yeah so so just to be clear. I'm not saying conclusively that there's no crime was committed here. I just haven't really thought through in own way. Exactly what the best route to a violation of federal law would be but since somebody has been reading her federal code book again. I think the important thing to note here is First of all from the fbi side with this be something that the fbi would investigate. What would if the department of justice being the witness and involved in this thing would have to refer it to the fbi for investigation and so that really puts the ball in the in department. The dj's corner If the fbi had somehow come across this on their own could there be predication to open investigation. Yeah there probably could be but an investigation of a political matter like this is by definition what we refer to as sensitive invest sensitive investigative matter. And so we would have to very quickly notify. Doj that we had opened such a case and then doj would have the opportunity if they wished to tell us. Proceed no further. You know for whatever reason we don't we don't think you should investigate this. So my point is that doj really is always in a very decisional position to decide. You know what. We don't think this should be investigated because it's against doj policy or. We don't believe you know the facts warrant investigation at decide. What what have you. That's the prosecutorial discretion right. So in this case they would have to have referred to the fbi investigation and in order to do that. They must have they would have to. I decide that they wanted it. Investigated is very possible that they would decide that. It was not enough to investigate. Simply because those sorts of cases that you're referring to sedition cases even obstruction of justice cases. Very very tough cases to prove especially when they are interlaced with what might be a first amendment protected political speech. That's kind of like the achilles heel to really any obstruction ks or certainly sedition case. So there's all kinds of very complicated legal math. That needs to be done on this thing and i certainly haven't had a chance to do that. Maybe not even the best person to do it but I'm sure if you've got five prosecutors together Two of them would say yes to would say no and the middle one but say he didn't know probably. You're probably right. I that i agree with the obstruction of justice stuff. Though that's plain as fucking day. Andy and i think that that needs to but i share your interest in getting all. These things investigated. I just wanna know. I wanna know it holding people accountable. That's what that's how this is supposed to work. And not being derelict in your duty. That's right that's right duty that when people were calling for impeachment and they say well why bother the senate's not gonna convict anyway. Why bother because it is the duty of the congress to impeach president for. Let's think about this right. He was impeached not once but twice for essentially abusive right for abusing the office If if congress had known about this telephone call that took place on december twenty seven. Do we think that might have changed their approach to the impeachment proceeding round too. I mean how could it not right so there was all this evidence of additional abuse of power just sitting. There never got considered never got brought to the table It's really unfortunate. Can't imagine all of the stuff that's going to come out that we have no idea happened but we know about this a little but yeah i think there's gonna be tons of it to common and i appreciate your time today.

"And again talking. With andy mccabe about this later and what. The implications of this new evidence could mean and what the strength of this new evidence is and finally the attorney general for the district of columbia will continue investigating whether trump's 2017 inauguration committee misspent more than a million dollars i think they misspent probably more than fifty million but okay And this is after discussions to resolve the matter out of court. They tried to do a little settlement. Didn't work the office had a civil lawsuit against the inaugural committee and the trump organization this month. The case was forced into mediation which is a dealmaking making session. In which neutral negotiator tries to get different sides to come to an agreement while lawyers met on july fourteenth to discuss resolving the case out of court the meeting went nowhere according to court records the closed-door meeting resulted in no agreement reached the reason. Investigators are dead set on seeing this case through to the end. That's according to a source with knowledge of the case. That means the case. We'll proceed as all sides way to see whether the dc superior court judge jose lopez rules that the local law enforcement agency has already proven its case before trial. The office of the local attorney. General coral racine has a pending motion for summary judgment arguing. That evidence already presented weighs heavily in his favor. The local attorney general claims the trump organization and trump international hotel in dc. Were unjustly enriched. By overbilling the nonprofit inauguration committee the office wants the judge to force the return of one point zero eight million dollars in misspent charitable funds. The attorney general's office wants to award that money to another. Civic minded nonprofit of choosing racing's office is seeking similar outcome to the victory. That new york's attorney general had in two thousand eighteen over the trump foundation member tisch james forcing the trump foundation to disband and hand over money to charities and they can't work at a charity in new york. And with that. I like i said i was able to speak with an old friend about some of this week's news. Let's take a listen to that interview. So what a treat. Today i get to talk to author of the book the threat and former acting director of the fbi. Andy mccabe andy. How are you. I'm doing really well. Thanks for having me good. No i'm i'm really glad i got to talk to you today. I've been watching you You're popping up a lot. Because we got a lot of department of justice stuff going on and i wanted to talk a little bit about what the department of justice is and so far what we haven't heard or they aren't doing and that's namely we haven't heard anything about any investigations into the leadership or the insiders or the funders of the riots and also we don't know if they're gonna look at obstruction of justice charges from from donald trump from muller's findings. He hasn't made an announcement on that. Either way. I'm not sure if they will but i wanted to ask you if you could kind of remind everybody sort of how an investigation in the department of justice get started. What kicks it off. What has to be there. In order to open an investigation into something like same mo brooks language at the ellipse or donald trump's language at the ellipse sure are so it helps to think about the fbi's investigative authorities which come to them from the department of justice in the form of the attorney general guidelines and those guidelines are then interpreted by the fbi and and encapsulated in something called the domestic investigations and operations guidelines. Which is we. Call it the dialogue. It's available online for anyone. Who'd like the skit. It's fascinating though excruciatingly dry reading. You can answer your questions right there. The dialogue lays out What predication what. What's necessary for the fbi to open an investigation. There's all kinds of different layers levels of investigation. There are assessments that we do just to look into Threats that come our way that we don't know much about but People bring information to us. It's our obligation to look into it all the way up to full field investigations. That's the biggest. Most kind of robust investigation. You can open in a fulfilled. Investigation can be predicated on a on a pretty low level of facts that you have and it's basically when the f. b. i. has information to have to actually have facts or not just allegations of actual facts and information that indicate either that a threat to national security might exist or that a violation of federal law. Federal criminal law may have taken place or might take place in the future than that is adequate predication or factual basis to open a full field investigation. And i saw you talking. I think it was to jake. Tapper today was a really great interview on cnn. Saying that you this is definitely what the bombshell that came down today. The department of justice that trump had called the former acting attorney general and said. Hey just make up some election corruption. I'll do the rest me in the republican congressman will do the rest and we have the handwritten notes and could you talk a little bit about the strength of contemporaneous note as evidence. And also you said that you didn't think that this rose to a level of a federal crime but would definitely be considered abuse of power and i was wondering if you could address that as well sure. So i on the contemporaneous notes. Contemporaries notes are some of the most effective pieces of evidence that you can have in an investigation or trial and especially when they are the notes from someone who had a pattern or practice or habit of routinely taking notes. So in this case you have Mr donahue remember his his first name but he was serving as the acting. Deputy attorney general so he was the kind of Right hand to jeffrey rosen. Who is the acting attorney. General at the time mr donahue was in the habit as most good lawyers are of taking notes when he's having a phone call with someone else or in a meeting with his boss. This occasion happened to be both of those things he was. Sitting with mr rosen. In they were both participating in a conference call with president trump during that call as is his habit he took notes and recorded his his impressions of what trump was saying. And then of course. What sort of responses he end the acting attorney. General gave president trump now because of his elevated position in the department of justice. Mr donahue notes must be preserved. They can't just throw them away or get rid of them. Those are federal records and so all of his notes probably when he left his position where taken by the department of justice and they are cataloged and will forever preserved in the national archives. The same thing that happened to my notes and other people who serve if you're serving above a certain level in the fdr doj. That's what happens your stuff. So these are contemporaneous records. So that's exactly what he heard in that moment and how he thought about it. He's capturing what what they said back and he's even writing little interesting things in the margins couldn't possibly be true. Which is fascinating funny. A question mark like but it's you can't assail them later by saying. Oh you know you're just saying this now because you see how things worked out or you're trying to achieve a certain result. No he took these then on that day. Med phone call and then they were locked away from him. So they're really interesting Record they kinda take you right back to that call. And how is this not a crime. How is this not for example eighteen. Us code twenty three eighty four right seditious conspiracy of two or more persons in any place..

"No mr green. Communism is just a red herring like all members of the oldest profession. I'm a capitalist. Hello and welcome to muller she wrote and holy majoli. We had one hell of a friday news dump this weekend. The department of justice is not fucking around my friends and we love to see it so much has happened. That indicates this justice department is not just going to ignore the former administration and their misdeeds. And i'm glad we were all a little patient. When merrick garland and there are still more litmus tests for me believe me. And i still am against a couple of the decisions that he's made. I add three red lines. I was hoping this justice department wouldn't cross and they eliminated two of them for me this week. So now there's only one left knows. Three red lines were if the department of justice represented mo brooks which. They decided this week not to do. If the department of justice represented trump in the insurrection lawsuits which they clearly said they weren't going to in the mo brooks decision and so those two are gone but the third one remains if the doj announces they will not pursue obstruction of justice charges against a former guy. Red line for me. So yeah with that decision this week. For maine justice that they want the court to deny certification of mo brooks speech at the ellipse being within the scope of his job as a congressman basically. They're saying he his speech is we can't step in. As a defendant for mo brooks and mo brooks asked the department of justice to they said we cannot we can't because instigate i'll tell you why in a minute but it the the message. The message was loud and clear need some information clear clear. This is clear they will not defend mo brooks speech nor would they defend any federal employees that instigated the attack on the capital. So i it's not just it wasn't just about because the the first reason they gave and i did a deep dive on this decision a couple of days ago on the daily beans so check that out but the general gist was mo brooks given a campaign speech campaign speeches and party your job and hey court if you don't agree with us that this was a campaign speech then fall back on this to deny it. Instigating insurrection is not within the scope of the job of a congressperson or any federal employees. So that wiped out mo brooks and trump and julia while guiliani is not a federal employees but any congressperson who did that and trump junior as well. I believe he was considered a federal employee. I can't remember though maybe not might just be kushner anyway. Like i said check out that episode of the daily beans but today on miller she wrote.

Us attorney's offices in new york were breached all told the justice department said twenty-seven us attorney's offices had at least one employs email account compromise during the hacking campaign. The justice department said in a statement that it believes the accounts were compromised from may seventh to december twenty seventh twenty twenty summer. Twenty-seventh is an interesting date. Because that's the day that trump made the call to the justice department and pressured them to announce that the election was corrupt. And he would take it from there. That's more crazy news. That dropped this. Friday notes from donahue. And we'll talk about that With anne mccabe now. Such a timeframe is notable because the solar winds campaign which infiltrated dozens of private sector companies and think tanks as well as at least nine. Us government agencies was first discovered and publicized in mid december. Twenty twenty and biden said tuesday that he'd been briefed on russian efforts to spread misinformation related to twenty twenty two. The midterm elections quote. Look what. Russia is doing already about the twenty twenty two elections and misinformation this during a speech at the o. Dna he referenced. information That he said was contained in his private president's daily brief it's a pure violation of our sovereignty biden said the intelligence community needs to take on the rampant information. That's making it harder and harder for people to assess the facts and be able to make decisions buying repeatedly referenced. Russian president putin during his remarks suggesting at one point he believes russia's weakened economy makes putin more dangerous in the cyber realm the intelligence community previously assessed that russia sought to interfere in two thousand sixteen and twenty twenty on orders from putin. Now report made public last year Or excuse me earlier. This year said russia acted to boost former trump's campaign and damaged biden's candidacy. Russia has denied it all. So that's that's going on. Us attorney's offices they're all sorts of interesting information on some prosecutions that may have been sitting there cleaning. Maybe tom barrack. Although i guess nobody tipped him off because he was arrested in los angeles surprise and we have a ton of news from the justice department. Like i said i. Main justice announced they would not invoked executive privilege for potential testimony from former trump. doj officials including folks. Like jeffrey rosen. And richard donahue and then and then they handed over several pages of contemporaneous notes written by donohue during a phone call between trump and his acting attorney. General jeffrey rosen. That sound an awful lot like the phone call. Trump had was zielinski that led to his first impeachment..

Rejecting the IG report, Michael Horowitz said no reason alive, But anyway, here's what McCabe said at the time. I never intentionally misled anyone about anything, and I certainly have not committed a crime. I was asked questions on two separate occasions about an article that had appeared months before I was asked questions completely unprompted in the middle of other farm or intense and challenging issues that were swirling around me at the time. Um, when I've thought after the fact that those answers may have been inaccurate or mistaken, I reached out to those folks to make sure that they understood exactly what I meant and understood exactly what the situation was. Well, if you you know, you just listen to this guy opening, okay? Not with the report said. That's not what we've learned, you know is we've learned a lot anyway. John Solomon is with us. He's he's been poring through these now declassified files in the final days of Trump's presidency. With apparently some update here. John Solomon. Yes, I'm going to be with you. Listen, these documents are amazing. I've said it before. These are too I think. FBI integrity What the Pentagon papers were to the Vietnam War. Every time you read them, you discover something else.

I just read it for the first time. The first time I've ever seen this, Rosenstein tells McCabe, uh, right after Comey's fired The president didn't fire me just because of Russia. He had intended to fire him all along. Going back to January when they first came into office. He didn't think that Comey was a good FBI director. Why is that significant? We gave a president To special counsel Mueller to investigate the firing of James Comey as obstructing the Russia investigation, when in fact the contemporaneous evidence now shows The idea to fire Comey started long before Russia just every time we read these documents were gonna learn something new about just how misled we were. How much deception in the official annals of government? Was carried out in how often the president was mistreated by false facts. I mean time and time again, a false narrative was pointed put out there. And the exculpatory facts were always hidden by the bureaucrats by them key players in Congress and we're on Lee now getting the truth. Four years later, it's It's incredible. What's frustrating is guys like Durham. He's had access to this information the whole time. As you know, he has absolutely he knows every says Low hanging fruit. John, This is not complicated stuff here. You know, we're gonna prosecute General Flynn for perjury trap. Where? Where I sent them in something I wouldn't do in the Bush or Obama administration's and even the FBI agents didn't think it was lying. But they send us a sign this paper that says you did. You lied, even though we didn't think you lie or we're gonna go after your son and your family. That's right. Listen, we're going to release in the next couple days. A new document. It's going to be the transcript of Carter Page talking to an FBI informant two months before they seek the FISA warrant two months before. The FBI knew from that interaction with Carter Page that Carter Page was not someone who had changed the Republican platform to help rush him. He said it we wasn't involved in. He was not someone that was trying to get Hillary Clinton's emails, all the allegations that Christopher Steele had put in his dossier. We're already debunked by an undercover informant wearing a wire catching Carter page, unaware that he was talking to an FBI informant. Making statements that were exculpatory statements of innocents and the FBI. When you read this transcript, then you look at what the FBI did in the subsequent application, you realize knowingly willfully Multiple members of the F B. I misled the FISA court. It's not even in doubt anymore. Yeah, I mean, it's and look when we say premeditated fraud is that now we know from these documents in these final days, declassification that in fact they had interviewed Christopher Steele early on and steals, admitted the reason he was pushing the dossier. Was to distract on behalf of Hillary Clinton's campaign because he hated Trump, You know, hence, we can go back to August, the 2016 and the warning even by Bruce, or that he's got a political agenda and that he's tied to the Clinton and Clinton's paying for this crap.

"Want that We live in in Washington, D c all of those people he should give a pardon, too. Cause it doesn't matter. They're not going to face a judge. They're not going to face a jury for their despicable behavior. He should give them a pardon for the sake of reconciliation for the sake of unity, and when giving the pardon he should lay out. Word for word line for line. What he's partner what crimes they have committed in his mind that he's going to give him them a preemptive pardon for Why not? One last little Signal. What do you think? Triple 86 30? W m a l? How about? Uh, Gosh, you're all over the map here with your responses. Um Well, let's do we. There's a lot of different topics out here that you're all responding to not necessarily this. Let let's well salmon and this is interesting. All right, Sam, make your case. I don't know what if I agree with you, But go ahead. Salmon. Alexandra, you're on to be a man. Brother. You never know what to do with me, but that I don't. I gotta keep keep you wandering. Okay, so and I'm really threaten the line here, so I want to make sure everybody understands. First of all the whole thing that happened at the Capitol Absolutely outrageous. And should not be tolerated. Got it, and I agree with that now The difference I think is, I think the president's really gonna have to sit down at the desk and go through cases. Very methodically as pretty as early as they are and make a determination. If you were a trump supporter, you got caught up in this whole Malays that happened inside. And you were there sitting at the speaker's death, taking Selfies with your feet up on the desk, or you were doing something that was very benign. You were there you were staying between the velvet ropes. Give you a pardon? If you were assaulting a police officer, you were in that crowd where you were doing malicious things and breaking no pardon for you. Yeah, Yeah, So to me that in that does number one. I think it does the right thing and a lot of people's minds. Number two. It's really flipping the bird, not only the Democrats because they impeached him for for this particular incident. But I think in quote for politics overall, it's like saying You know, you're saying all these people as a big glom desecrated the capital, Where you over decades just by your Performance and lack of performance and desecrated every single day and make that statement. All right, Sam, how about if he put a condition on it say you know the pardon? The pardon will be lifted The moment James Comey or Andrew McCabe er Peter struck her indicted. Right, in other words, on until justice is delivered equally. You know, then these guys who didn't actually break anything. Didn't do anything. Didn't me didn't destroy anything nearly to the level that Peter struck destroyed the trust of the American people have with the Justice Department of the FBI. That's something very valuable that was destroyed by this guy. Ah, we can meet in the middle of the island..

"And seemingly walk away with impunity. Then they have right wing mobs literally attacked the United States Capitol is something Do you think the President bears some measure of culpability for what happened? I think one of the things that's important that you point out here, Willie. Um you know if he does the Nancy Pelosi does, and so does Azi. Far as I'm concerned, the FBI does you go back to the shooting? You know what they came and told us They came and told us that this guy who tried to kill us, even though we had names in his pocket and stopped us for two months, and with the Bernie Sanders San anti Trump all that was known. They told us that this was just suicide by cop. I have finally gone back to the FBI within the last year and got him to admit now, this was domestic terror. But the difference is Andrew McCabe had just taken over the FBI and darn if he was not going to make sure that no one comes out and says that this guy was motivated by the rhetoric. They left wing extremists and if and if it was suicide by cop that's interesting because the police there undercover and sitting in the car, he doesn't even know they're there. The FBI in that case was just is guilty. And then you have Nancy Pelosi saying, which she said that you know, people do what they do. Well, I guess what she's saying is they do what they do when it's okay. So here she is the speaker of the house. She's telling America this type of behavior is OK. So who else is in you compiled the blame on a lot of everyone from me. People are personally responsible for the behavior, no matter what somebody says. But I'm going to tell you something I don't think after the president spoke, people ran out and make pipe bombs and built a stage for a news and all the other weapons that they brought with them right. They had those on them ready to go before the president spoke. You contest a lot of blame, and they're going to try to take this opportunity to divide America even further when I would hope to see over the next couple of weeks. Is that not what they're going to do? They're gonna They're gonna pass a resolution, probably in the house. The Democrats will its test Mike Pence to invoke the 25th amendment and eliminate the president on and if not, then they're going to impeach They talk about bringing America together. Look at this is time for de escalation. And going ahead with these actions is only going to escalate things the president and I hope he means it has said he's going to have a peaceful transition and allow this to go further. What I would like to see the president be able to do over the next couple weeks is talk about all the good things that he did accomplish during his term because I think that that would be a good trip. Transition. But I just think this rub salt into the wounds of America and can incite things further with a lot of emotional people on both sides of the aisle, you know, in our country today. Well, Biden says, Bring people together. Let's see if he means that the Chris Cuomo of CNN I said, who said protests were supposed to be peaceful? Many times. They can't be peaceful, Another commentator and CNN said riots or the language of the unheard, so if someone on the right here is that kind of stuff and put horns on their head, and here, she is watching CNN hearing that who said protesters supposed to be peaceful? That's one of the commentators, one of the main actors on CNN and riots of the language of the unheard he might be thinking what I'm unheard, and then you have other commentators on NBC labels, protests fiery but mostly peaceful, And so when I look on the left, I see excuse for Bernie in American cities and I look on the right and then I look at individuals that are listening to what's going on to what Rudolph Giuliani said about the Combat and about fighting. And I'm thinking, Oh my God, the U. S capitol. And according to all the reporting the last day or two, it appears that the persons responsible for calling in the soldiers I watched Governor Hogan of Maryland earlier today. Talk about That he was ready to go. But he couldn't get permission to enter because the secretary defense didn't give permission of 5:45 p.m. after this was all done that to me. I'm looking at left and right. Is there a way Congressman Wendt strip of bringing Americans together in a way, Or does that mean coming together? Means you agree with me? Because when I hear Democrats talked Like Nancy Pelosi was on CBS earlier and she's talking about coming together. Well, that means from her perspective, agreeing with me for eight months, he had the ability of agreeing to 80% or more of what turned out to be the final late, and she refused to agree to 80% of what she wanted because it was going to help Trump get elected, and she wouldn't agree. And so those on the left and the right and I consider you a moderate Republican. Because you're a soldier. You served in Iraq. And you're you make half the money or third of the money used to make your like cincinnatus going in and now you're going to go back into the real world at some point, But do you senses of feeling now in the congress over the next 10 days there, bring us together or is the fighting to commence again? I think you know clearly if she's going with these actions, she's really trying to divide us once more. She Nancy Pelosi has been been very good at that. And, you know a lot of people better take a look in the mirror with the light on, not with her, not with the light off. Because when you you look at this, there's so much hypocrisy and that has to be brought out. But look right now we have a country that essentially being run and dictated to by the media. And Bye Bye, Tech. I mean, our first write amendments are being stripped from us. You know, you can't You can't say that. You can't say that I look, I always understood that with profanity and things like that, But opinions are another thing. And you know this. This is this is going too far from where we are, and that's just aggravating people even more on and I only have an undergrad degree in psychology. But even though I say people are personally responsible for their own actions, and I mean that You have to be careful not to incite even further and I think the actions will be taken this week are not one of coming together, the president has conceded, the president has said. That well, maybe in conceiving said. They'll be a peaceful transition. It's done right. Let's go. Let's go. Let's move on and they don't seem willing to do that..

McCabe defends Russia probe during partisan hearing

Called it an obligation our duty to do so because of information that had been brought to its attention in response to questioning. McCabe also said this about the FBI's investigation, which ultimately led to the Russia probe. We had many reasons to believe that the president might himself pose a danger to national security, and that he might have engaged in obstruction of justice. If the firing of the director and those other things were geared towards eliminating or stopping our investigation of Russian Active.

Explaining the Michael Flynn controversy
"City every thing that we have been saying we're now going on three plus years is now true there is a miscarriage of justice they set up general Flynn we now have hand written notes to prove it where do we stand and your thoughts what we have even more evidence now Sean than we had yesterday we did a new filing at about one o'clock this afternoon with a report from the FBI that completely exonerated planets of January fourth of any sort of Russia problem and repeats in multiple ways that they had checked all the government files on him the FBI files the DA files probably ASCII files all those those two were redacted and found no derogatory information on him whatsoever so then we learned a task a confidential informant against them from the other information I have another that staff and helpers and he's a total slimeball but was running an operation against when I'm probably through the office of net assessment James Baker colonel James Baker in the department of defense with his handler and we think banker that they could not be at the operator but the defense department Baker is the one who had the connection that allowed him to get the transcript of the Kinsley act calls that he then probably leaked to his friend David Ignatius there been recent disclosures of how cozy their relationship was which was inappropriate for more reasons than one and we've just got more and more evidence of the strong page text messages hell struck at the instructions of seven four went back in which means the upper echelon of the FBI Comey and McCabe went back in and kept the following general Flynn from being closed he references their own incompetence and realizing that the file has been closed even though it was supposed to be on so they started all over again and start making up the attempt for the Logan act delegations and set up the interview now as I read these hand written notes and and new information that has come out potential questions for DD's call explain what that is this is from struck that son an email from strong before McCabe is going to place the call to swing on the day of the interview that Comey was talking and bragging about his little speech on national January twenty fourth four days into the trump administration and McCabe now general Flynn it's been widely reported ask or do I need a lawyer anything in Andrew McCabe lied to him did he not and deny him his Miranda rights well actually technically Maranda doesn't apply in the non custodial setting but what they always do is at least mention of one thousand one possibility the false statement possibility and what that means that they have plans and schemes by other information we have not even do that with general Flynn there emails yesterday produced that recommended that they do that and note that they always do that at least mention it in an interview and they decided here because it was planned not to mention it at all they schemes and plans and met at length about it to decide to keep him relaxed and unguarded and then I would not have their and what wouldn't a White House council of as well what is the nature of this then again improper process was and protocol what is the nature of the discussion with general Flynn and if they had the Telemus about an investigation into planned and Russia well that point the White House counsel would say will red flags general Flynn they probably would have told you probably need a lawyer that would have happened now in that and then these other you know hand written notes what is our goal now why would any FBI agent ever have to ask the question because the goal should be truth the goal should be justice they say then it goes on truth admission R. or to get him to lie get him we're trying to get him to do something or and then it's so so we can then prosecute him or get him fired well that sounds like a perjury trap but I'm not the smart lawyer that you are Sydney about one that was obviously written obviously their goal and that's even more apparent in the text messages of Strzok and page and others that came out in the production today where they also talk about using a defensive briefing as a pretext to talk to him they're trying to figure out a way to talk to him in such a way that he doesn't know he's being interviewed so they could try to trap him or make something up against him and they wound up having to just make it up and we learn more in today's production also about how Mr Strzok did massive added to the original agents three oh two and was trying very hard to keep that other agents employees in the report despite his significant changes to it and was talking to Lisa page about that she was fussing with him that helps lobbyists work was on it all right I'm I want to get John Solomon here in here in a second but Sydney what we now knows that this was a set up that they knew ahead of time that they had put this case to rest they resurrected it for political purposes we know even earlier and and the attorney general's confirm this that in fact when we've confirmed it that it was premeditated fraud on the FISA court because they will warn John Solomon will address this in a minute and that is they will warn that the dirty dossier that Hillary paid for should not be trusted it was political in nature it's unverified and my and that Christopher Steele has an agenda numerous times but they took the unverified later we find out unverifiable odd dirty Russian dossier that even apparently the Russians knew was going to Hillary Clinton which brings up a whole new story likely Russian disinformation even The New York toilet paper times got that was used as the foundation for all four FISA warrants totally debunked at this point they never even tried to verify it and then they took away Carter page's civil liberties and constitutional rights they spied on a candidate a transition team and deep into the presidency of Donald Trump those last words are Attorney General bars are and then we have other issues involving helper and Joseph miss foot in Brandon and and clapper which I assume at some point will be addressed to hear Sydney but here's what happened they denied that we now know that general Flynn is even a bigger hero don't week that what we have been saying on this program and thank god for you because you've got the crap beat out of you all a lot you work your your you know what off offered no money for the most part pro bono and donations from generous people thank god because this guy went bankrupt and he fell on the sword to save his son is not true Sidney Powell yes yes the generosity of the American people has kept our litigation going in his defense and we've learned that there was a secret side deal of course but generally they have promised not to indict his son but the judge didn't know it and we found documentary evidence only recently that Covington and Burling as per our lawyers and the prosecutor Mr van crack it made this a secret side deal deliberately to avoid that Mr Bannon cracks obligation to produce that exculpatory or impeachment information to any future defendant that they wanted general Flynn to testify against so it was another example of them cracked deliberately trying to hide the ball of exculpatory evidence and believe that the same time we on at the same time the judge did not note that the plea was coerced at and the plea was course because they said well we didn't think ally but you're going to admit to lying rose we're going after your son which that is prosecutorial abuse to I don't want to keep John Solomon out of this discussion John you've brought amazing work here and you have a lot of updates we have to listen today's documents that should be forced into the public I think really bring to light the deliberate nature of what was going on here the normal process for the F. B. I. was taking its course they looked at general plan they decided he wasn't a Russian asset he posed no threat he should be okay to be the national security adviser and then this is a more right from their notes the seventh floor of the FBI got involved the seven floors James Comey and Andrew McCabe and they stop the closure of the files the they were gonna treats when the right way and just give me a defensive briefing I move on and they put a stop to it and then they can talk this interview and you
