Charged for lying to muellers team while joseph misfoot was not . Also Kevin Mcaleenan on the Trump Administration scoring two major victories to secure the border, but questions loom. What help will the president get from Congressional Democrats . All that right here, right now as we look ahead on sunday morning futures. Maria and good morning. New reaction to one of the most anticipated hearings on capitol hill in a very long time. Former special Counsel Robert Mueller answering questions last week on his nearly twoyear investigation on Russian Election interference. Democrats say muellers testimony is empowering them to ramp up investigations of President Trump. But republicans were left questioning how engaged mueller really was in writing of that report. And why there wasnt more focus on the origins of the fbis counterintelligence investigation into the Trump Campaign. Republicans pressing for answers on a mysterious figure who looms large in the investigation. You heard about him here first, a london professor who interacted with George Papadopoulos. Did you interview him . Is he western intelligence or russian intelligence . Cant get into that. A lot of things you cant get into. Whats interesting is you can charge 13 russians no ones ever heard of, no ones ever going to see them, you can charge them and all kinds of people who are around the president with false statements, but the guy who launches the guy who puts this whole story in motion, you cant charge him. Once mifsud finally was questioned, he made false statements to the fbi. But you declined to charge him. Is that correct . You did not indict mr. Mifsud . Im not going to speak to series of happenings as you articulate them. The time of the gentleman has expired. Pardon . You did not indict mr. Mifsud . True. Maria democratic investigators are deciding where to go from here, but there appears to be disagreement about what comes next. Filing an application for the grand jury material underlying the Mueller Report. That information is critically important for our ability to examine witnesses including former White House Counsel Don Mcgahn and to investigate the president s misconduct. We will proceed when we have what we need to proceed. Not one day sooner. And everybody has the liberty and the luxury to espouse their own position and to criticize me for trying to go down the path in the most determined, positive way. Maria President Trump weighed in on twitter writing this Robert Muellers testimony and the Mueller Report itself was a disaster for this illegal democratinspired witch hunt. It is an embarrassment to the usa that they dont know how to stop. They cant help themselves, they are totally lost. They are clowns, writes the president. Joining me right now, one of the law makers to who questioned mueller, republican congressman from california, devin nunes is the Ranking Member of the House Intel Committee, a member of the house ways and means committee, and hes among the few congressmen who have been on this program for the last two and a half years telling the truth about what has taken place. Congressman, thanks very much for joining us. Thank you, maria. Great to be with you. Maria reaction, your reaction from the mueller testimony. Well, first of all, its clear that mueller didnt write the report, and so who wrote the report . We think there were five or six lawyers involved. Were still trying to get to bottom of that. I would say one of the main takeaways is that we still dont have any russians, right . We dont know who the russians were that supposedly, you know, colluded with the Trump Campaign. Why . Because there were none, and thats what we said two and a half years ago. There is evidence that the democrats colluded with the russians. We tried to get to the bottom of that but, clearly, mueller is and his team of lawyers and 40 investigators and 40 million didnt bother to look for those russians. They were only looking for the russians that the were mysterious because they dont exist and they never found them. Maria you focused on Joseph Mifsud in some of your questions. We had George Papadopoulos on this program earlier in the year, and he basically broke the news about the fact that he was the first person to tell him that russia had Hillary Clintons emails. Also he broke news on this program earlier this year that another individual dropped 10,000 on his lap, another situation that you mentioned in your questioning. Why was it so important for you to mention people like mifsud and others . Well, remember, mifsud is at the heart of this investigation. He is the one who supposedly knows about clintons emails, that the russians have clinton emails. He supposedly said this to papadopoulos, something about emails. This is the excuse and the well, actually, its not the excuse, it is the reason why, the documented reason why they opened the investigation on july 31, 2016. Now, what i mentioned in my testimony and in my questioning, its clear that the fbi did not open the investigation on july 31st. Thats the paperwork. What were trying to figure out is when did the fbi really start to run the investigation, what types of processes did they use, what was the predicate. Because, look, it really appears like they were spying on the Trump Campaign. So let me, if i may, start with there was an event at Cambridge University where carter page was invited to it. In addition, Steven Miller and other Trump Campaign people were invited in june, in late may, early june. They get an invitation to a symposium that was held in cambridge in early july. Now, at this, at this symposium you have characters like the british historian Christopher Andrew, you have people like the former head of mi6, richard deerlove. This is some type of contract for hire spying outfit. What you have there is an american citizen, somebody whos long been involved in politics, and the guys name is steven schragey. He knows that the house intelligence committee, the Senate Intelligence committee, the fbi, we want to talk to anyone and everyone who was dealing with carter page and other Trump Associates especially in early 2016. He is the one who invited carter page to this event. Schragey is the one who organized this event. But instead of coming forward, a guy whos been involved in politics for this long doesnt come forward . I want to know did he know about the steele dossier at that time . When did he find out about the steele dossier . Did he give it to anyone . Those are the types of things that he needs to come clean on because you know, look, maybe he was just a guy working for minimum wage, sweeping the floors around cambridge. I highly doubt it. Now, when you look at the other brits that were involved in, more. Martha underpar what, this also marr ya, this also tied in with general flynn. Specifically, Christopher Andrew said that general flynn had a russian girlfriend. Well, that sounds really bad if general flynn had a russian girlfriend. Well, in fact, when you actually look at it, you know, who she actually is, she was born in russia, shes now a u. K. Citizen and, guess what . She was never interviewed by the mueller team. So you dont interview schagey, supposedly flynns girlfriend this is the reason they open up an investigation on general flynn she doesnt even get interviewed. So lots of questions and not very many answers. Maria you said this individual has been in politics for a long time. What was he in politics for . Well, the best i can see hes worked at think tanks, he has a law degree, he was supposedly studying at cambridge. Im not sure what he was studying. Hes worked on numerous president ial campaigns. Thats about all i know maria did he work for National Security for mitt romney . Was he working with mitt romney in National Security . Yeah, i think he worked on the romney campaign, and im not sure, he may have worked on the Mccain Campaign also. But look, this is why somebody like this who clearly knows republicans, he ought to come forward and tell us what he knows. Like i said, maybe hes completely innocent of this, but he could shed a lot of light on what the fbi or the brits or private contractors or fusion gps maria yeah. You know, whoever was doing the investigating before july 31st, weve been looking for that for a really long time, as you know. Maria congressman, youve mentioned a lot of individuals. I want to ask you about that because all of these individuals that youre mentioning are, like, intel aides across the world. One from australia, one from britain, one from italy. I want to know who coordinated all of that and who was the mastermind behind the plan to insert donald trump into the russia meddling story. Were going to take a short break, and then im going to come back and ask you that, what you think, who you think is the mastermind. Follow me on twitter, on instagram as well. Were going to take a short break and have a lot more with congressman devin nunes, secretary mcaleenan and george pop adopt louse coming up. Pop adopt louse coming up. Stay with us.

Org all im askin is for a little respect excuse me maam, would you like to have my seat . Respect find out what it means to me respect take care. Tcb, oh maria welcome back. We are back with california congressman devin nunes, ranking republican on the House Intel Committee, among the questions of special Counsel Robert Mueller e. Congressman, we know based on what youve told us, John Radcliffe has told us over the last year and a half that this investigation by the fbi likely started at the end of 2015. We know that at the end of 2015, going into 2016, they were very suspicious informanttype situations going on. And yet in the testimony, you mentioned to mueller that somebody dropped 10,000 in George Papadopoulos lap, but that was during the special counsel which means that was in 2017, they were still trying to entrap people during the special counsels investigation . Well, we dont know the answer to that because mueller wouldnt answer the question. So youre right. So in the last segment i talked about general flynn. Some brits dirtied him up claiming that he had a russian girlfriend, right . So these were former intelligence guys, a story that went public. This is why they were investigating flynn, you know, back in 2015. Then if you move into 2016, someone started setting up these socalled events or symposiums that it just so happened that all of these people got invited to. Now, youre going to have George Papadopoulos on earlier, which this is another track where you had a foreign politician named Alexander Downer who still is unclear because he claims he didnt ask about emails, papadopoulos said he didnt talk about emails, but yet somehow the fbi uses papadopoulos to open the investigation, and then they continued to ask papadopoulos about emails all through the rest of 2016. But downer never said anything about emails. So, you know, this is another thing that mueller couldnt answer this week. So now when you look at what they did in 2017, after the special counsel was set up, you somebody gave papadopoulos 10,000. And it was odd that, you know, just a week before they arrested him at the dulles airport. Now remember, papadopoulos has been cooperating with the investigation. He had went through several interviews in the early parts of 2017. So none of this makes any sense, and and it really looks like the mueller team remember, i call it the mueller dossier. Mueller clearly wasnt involved in this, but this is nothing more, nothing less than a coverup, okay . Why would you not you write a whole report on natalia, you mention her 65 times in the report, okay . Shes a russian. She met with the trump team one time for less than 20 minutes, okay in she met with Glenn Simpson who was running the dirty operations for the Clinton Campaign at least three times, my guesses is multiple times, maybe dozens of times. You put it in a report, but you dont talk about the it. Maria right. Theres so much in that Mueller Report that really just looks like a glossover and a coverup. Maria yeah. Clearly, as we have learned more and more they used George Papadopoulos and also carter page as windows into the Trump Campaign, and with papadopoulos, this whole idea that somebody told him that russia had Hillary Clintons emails, and because he was told that, they tried to play it that he was part of a conspiracy. This is what with i want to know and what i think our viewers want to know. Who is the mastermind of this story . Who ises the mastermind of the plan to insert donald trump into russia meddling, which we know russia has been meddling for decades . Well, i think we can say lets talk about what we can, what we know are facts, what we can say for certain. I think thats helpful. We know the Clinton Campaign, number one, so theyre aware of a lot of this, right . Theyre involved in the creation of thes do area the creation of the dossier, they hire fusion gps and christopher steele. Thats a fact. We know the fbi is involved to some degree. We dont know exactly what they were doing before july 31, 2016. Why . Because they wouldnt answer the questions that we had over the last two years. And, in fact, when we were getting close, we wanted transcripts, there were things that we wanted, those were not beginning to the United States house of representatives under republican control. Do you know why . Because the mueller dossier team wouldnt let it happen. So thats why i say somebody needs to look at these characters that were on muellers team. I think they obstructed justice. They obstructed a congressional investigation. So thats number two. We have, we have the clinton team, we have the fbi. Theres also a third team that we know of, that is this cambridge team, this group of british peoplethat were there, these intelligencerelated folks including the american citizen, stephen schagey, who organized in the event. They were involved in the character assassination of a threestar general, the former head of the the director of intelligence, general michael flynn. Maria right. So those are the three entities that we know, and i think what the doj needs to get to bottom of is when did these all intersect. You dont get that until you start to interview people and, remember, the mueller team never bothered to interview maria real quick, weve got to jump, but is it more likely that the cia would integrate all of these International Sources across the world or the fb initiation c cia or fbi in terms of getting all these intel associates like the downers and mifsuds of the world together . Well, as you know, we have jurisdiction over both fbi and cia and what they do overseas. Maria yeah. We have lots of information of fbi people going overseas and doing things, we dont really have any information from cia. So far theyve really come clean. I would say the only one that has, that has questions to answer is john brennan, because we now know that john brennan briefedded harry reid on the dossier in august of 2016. At the same time, he never briefed me or paul ryan who was the speaker of the house at the time. Maria yeah. Well, we keep peeling back the onion and learning more and more. Congressman, its good to have you on the program, thanks very much. You should be taking a victory lap after all your great work with. Congressman devin nunes. Straight ahead, acting Homeland Security secretary Kevin Mcaleenan is here on the Trump Administration scoring two major victories on the border. Guatemala becomes migrants seeking asylum here in the u. S. And then back to mueller investigation. Of savings and service. Whoa. Travis in it made it. Its amazing. Oh is that traviss app .

Oh, look, karolyn, weve got a mathematician on our hands check it out now you can schedule a callback or reschedule an appointment, even on nights and weekends. Todays xfinity service. Simple. Easy. Awesome. Id rather not. Maria welcome back. The Trump Administration scoring two major victories on efforts to end the border crisis. First, the president announced a new asylum deal with guatemala, saying it will put, quote, coyotes and smugglers out of business. Secondly, the Supreme Court this week clearing the way for the administration to use 2. 5 billion in pentagon money for border wall construction. Joining me right now is acting secretary of Homeland SecurityKevin Mcaleenan and, mr. Secretary, its always a pleasure to see you. Thanks very much for joining us this morning. Good to be with you. Maria i want to is ask you about the impact, but first, can you assess the situation . We heard a lot in these last couple of weeks from the likes of congresswoman alexandria ocasiocortez, to Lindsey Graham, the senator came back and came on the show after he viewed the border. What can you tell us in terms of what is happening today . Yeah. Well, maria, the situations improving on the border by almost every measure, but we do remain in the midst of a Border Security crisis. Let me give you some of the statistics. Back in may we were apprehending about 4,650 people a day at that southern border. Now that numbers about 2,600. So weve had a significant drop, 28 in june, another 20 plus percent in july so far, and thats due to two administration initiatives, engaging our International Partners in mexico and guatemala in particular. Mexico has stepped up and addressed security on their southern boarder and the transportation routes that smugglers are using. And as you heard, guatemalas agreed not only to work with us on asylum in the region, but its already been taking action to tackle criminal organizations that are smuggling families and kids. At the same time, weve reduced the number of people in custody at the border, those challenging situations with crowding we were having. We had almost 20,000 people in custody in early june. That number last night was 7,200, and weve reduced the number of unaccompanied children by 90 . Weve made a lot of progress, but weve got more to do. Maria i want to ask you about that. Unaccompanied alien children in june were 7,378. Way down from mays numbers of 11,000 plus. Family units in june 57,389, way down from the 84,499 1 that we saw back in may. You also, when i spoke with you earlier, you told me in the month of june there werent any im sorry, the month of july there werent any large groups. Because you had been having busloads of people, right . Thousands of people crossing at once. No major groups in the month of july . Exactly. Thats been one of the significant efforts that mexicos undertaken, to reduce the phenomenon of large are groups. Where you were at the border, maria, in el paso, we were seeing groups of 400, in one case 1,000 crossing. Its a completely different scenario than may when we had 28 large groups and up to 1,000 per group. It was very different and challenging effort. Maria so going through, so the money that can be used, you already have the appropriated funding for 53 miles that have already been built, correct . You say youre going to have more than 200 miles built by next year. That money has been appropriated already. But then the second set of dollars, this is the dod money, that has the potential to more than double the activity. Thats exactly right. It was a big victory in the Supreme Court to allow the department of defense to move forward with that 2. 5 billion to really accelerate the progress on the wall and kind of double what were doing with the congressionallyappropriated funding which is going well, as you noted. Were up to 54 miles since we talked,s building every day down on the border, and thats providing significant new Operational Capability and helping us control some hightrafficked areas of the border. Maria yeah, were looking at fresh video that we have from this office, so thank you for that, to really explain the story to our viewers. Some people talk about this as a National Security issue, but they dont also talk about the cost. Theres a real expense to having a surge in migrants at our borders, and just the expense of holding them, right . Tell us about that. Yeah. I guess one way to look at it is 4. 5 billion in the emergency supplemental that we had to ask for and got from congress finally, 75 of that went to our partners at health and Human Services simply for the care and custody of unaccompanied children for the remaining four months of the year. Thats how expensive this is to try to provide them proper care and just given the flow that were facing at the border, the number of people and the number of dollars it takes to provide medical, education, appropriate settings for kids. And thats a kind of government cost alone that were facing. But then there are costs in communities as well. Maria i want to get to what Congress Needs to do, and they left town, of course, we know that. Before we get there, explain the renting program. When i was at the border in el paso, i couldnt believe how many Young Children that i saw. I saw one 8yearold and a 10yearold, they said, oh, we were with my mother, she said she was going to get something to eat, and now shes gone. And then people who were questionable even as a family. Tell us what youve seen in terms of people renting children, renting family and how they have to pay off the drug lords. Absolutely. This is one of the most concerning areas, is the exploitation of children. Weve had over 5,000 cases this year of adults bringing children across, claiming a family relationship, and it didnt exist. Some of that could be simply bringing a child for a friend whos already here in the u. S. But more nefariously, weve seen cases where children are used multiple times by different adults, we call it child recycling, weve seen human trafficking. And probably the most egregious case this year, Homeland Security investigations through a dna test and interview identified a 51yearold man who purchased a sixmonthold infant for 80 in guatemala, and he was trying the use that infant to be released into the United States. Maria unbelievable. Horrific. Maria that is horrific. So now connect the dots in terms of what can be done. We had senator Lindsey Graham on in the program two weeks ago. He said he was going to try to get a vote for his legislation that hes working on before the august recess. Heres what he told me just two weeks ago, secretary. Listen to this. Im saying you cant apply for asylum in america anymore, youve got to do it in your home country or mexico. Im also saying we cant process a minor claim in 20 days, give us more time to process minor claims for families. 30 of the people with small children are fake families. The word is out in Central America you bring a small child to the United States, youre home free. I want to change that narrative. Were going to vote before the august recess. I am willing to spend money to help Central America, democrats have mentioned that. I will do that, but weve got to change our laws, or this never stops. Maria that was two weeks ago. Are the leadership in guatemala and honduras and el salvador getting the message, and tell me about that bill. I know you worked closely with senator graham on that, right . Absolutely. Senator graham understands very well the three major loopholes that are driving this crisis, and his bill would address each one of them. We worked closely with him on the language to make sure we could close that down and reduce this incentive thats driving family and kids to take this dangerous journey in the hands of smugglers. But in terms of the governments in Central America, ive been down there multiple times as acting secretary working with each of the three president s, but guatemalas really stepped up. Theyre tackling the alien smuggling organizations, and now on friday adding to that, addressing asylum together and trying to return the understanding of what asylum really means in international law. Thats what senator grahams bill would do as well. Maria you need congress to act a. They left, now youve got to wait six weeks, i guess. We made very clear the targeted changes in law that we need. Maria secretary, thanks very much for joining me this morning. Thanks, maria. Appreciate it. Maria up next, we will return maria up next, we will return to the mueller testimony with it was a huge pill to swallow maria up next, we will return to the mueller testimony with being told that you would never breath on your own, be able to walk on your own or being able to feed myself on my own, completely changes you. You have to realize who the new you is, while living with the limitations that you have on a day to day basis. I was sitting on the couch contemplating is my life really worth it. Wounded warrior project showed me that i am worth it. My first event was a solider ride in seattle and i got to ride 50 miles on a hand cycle that i borrowed from them at zero cost to me. All i had to do was show up. I am so thankful that Wounded Warrior project was there to help me. Being able to open up and not having to reexplain everything thats going on in your life, because they get it. I know of no other veterans organization, that has been able to help me get to where i am now. Where i started off barely being able to move my arms to now being able to walk without holding onto anything. I am living proof. Worse. Life just weighed a ton. I didnt even want to get out of bed. Turns out, i had the strength to get myself back. Just needed to take that first step. More . He has asked for. What . Well he did say please all boys thank you, thank you, thank you. Respectfully, director, it was knotts the special counsels job to conclusively determine Donald Trumps innocence or to exonerate him, because the bedrock principle of our Justice System is a presumption of innocence. It exists for everyone. Everyone is entitled to it, including sitting president s. And because there is a presumption of innocence, prosecutors never, ever need to conclusively determine it. Donald trump is not above the law. Hes not. But he damn sure or shouldnt be below the law are. Maria my next guests is one of the republicans who questioned Robert Mueller last week on whether the russia investigation was fueled by an antitrump bias, period. Congressman John Ratcliffe is a member of the house judiciary, intelligence and Homeland Security committees, also a former federal prosecutor. Congressman, its good to have you, thanks so much for joining me. Good morning, maria. Maria you zeroed in on exonerate, because the special counsel said we could not exonerate the president. Why was that line of questioning important . Well, maria, the democrats built their entire strategy around the special counsels statement that donald trump could not be exonerated from potential obstruction of justice crimes, but what the democrats and the special counsel didnt see was the fatal defect in that legal reasoning, that by requiring donald trump to conclusively prove his innocence, they were depriving him of the one thing that no one can be one proved of no one can be deprived of. By getting them to admit these facts really rocked the foundation of their entire obstruction of justice analysis. At the end of the day, you cant impeach somebody over obstruction of justice where you use the wrong Legal Standard, a Legal Standard that doesnt exist. It seemed like that was maria so do you think you popped the impeachment bubble . I think everybody saw and a lot of democrats have conceded that its time to move on, that theres a hole in the impeachment balloon thats large enough for jerry nadler and adam schiff to walk through together. But schiff and nadler dont seem to see that, you know . The same folks that promised that there was going to be impeachment by collusion, you know, that died when the Mueller Report came out and said there was no collusion or conspiracy. Then they shifted to it was going to be impeachment by obstruction of justice, that Robert Mueller was going to breathe life into the report. Instead, he sucked the life out of it by, again, plying a Legal Standard that didnt exist. Now theyre moving on saying they want to pursue purr by the court on instruction by the court system. Look, its becoming a joke. I think people see that, and nadler and schiff are starting to look more like laurel and hardy. Time to move on. Maria what is your reaction overall . I mean, congressman, if theres one question that ive been asking this entire twoyear period, its this how is it possible that the Mueller Report, the mueller investigations going to have any credibility at all if Robert Mueller does not look at the origins of the investigation . If he does not look at specifically why, why am i looking at trump being involved in russia meddling . We know russia has meddled for decades. Why is trump part of this . So i ask you, your reaction right. Maria to the fact that mueller said he doesnt hes not familiar with fusion gps. Its not in his but view. Can that slide . Of course it cant. Trey gowdy said it best this week, the person who learned the most about the Mueller Report during wednesdays hearings was Robert Mueller. And thats sad but true. And really what it meant is that the Mueller Report and its conclusions werent from Robert Mueller, they were written what a lot of people believe was Hillary Clintons de facto legal team, people that had supported her, even represented some of her aides. And so the Mueller Report is really going to be difficult for the democrats or anyone to rely upon the findings of a report when they just listened to the man whose name was on top of it not have a command of what was anytime. Maria the fact that you did have other people writing the report, do you think people understand that . Andrew weissman was a Hillary Clinton donor, he was at her election party, right . Its not just Andrew Weissman. Aaron zebley represented Hillary Clintons aide who set up the upper and mashed her blackberries with a hammer. There were all sorts of folks, again, that were close to the Clinton Foundation and, you know, so the bias that was involved there, i think, are fair things to talk about. And i think thats why in light of the disastrous testimony from Robert Mueller, you know, the democrats paid a heavy price for bringing a reluctant witness to testify. They. Played their hand they overplayed their hand and did it in front of a a National Television audience. It was a great week for donald trump because of that. To your point, maria, now the things that bob mueller said he didnt know about and his team clearly didnt look at, those are things that are there for bill barr and the department of justice to look at. Because we know that things happened in the Obama Administration that havent been answered. Theres been no accountability for that yet. Maria lets take a short break, and i want to ask you where the crime and the wrongdoing really was, because we know that barrs looking at it, and john durham is looking at it is and the i. G. , along with senator Lindsey Graham. Also ahead, my exclusive interview with George Papadopoulos, his name was referenced more than 30 times during the mueller testimony. During the mueller testimony. Back in a min hey, who are you . Oh, hey jeff, im a car thief. What . im here to steal your car because, well, thats my job. What . What . . What . laughing what . . What . what . [crash] what . haha, it happens. And if youve got cutrate car insurance, paying for this could feel like getting robbed twice. So get allstate. And be better protected from mayhem. Like me. Of all the moments you share with your best friend, the greatest could be the moment you save her life. Every Second Counts in cardiac arrest. Learn handsonly cpr and be the difference for someone you love. sfx birds singing, distant dog barking hi hi whistling tune dont worry, be happy [thrift shop instrumental by macklemo e and ryan lewis] maria welcome back. I am back now with republican congressman from texas, John Ratcliffe, sits on the House Intel Committee as well as judiciary and Homeland Security. Congress bank, let me ask you about where congressman, let me ask you about where the wrongdoing was specifically. You have john durham looking at this origins of the russia investigation, you have william barr, you have senator Lindsey Graham and the i. G. Report. Tell us what theyre going to find. Where ises the wrongdoing . I think the first thing we need to do is make sure we dont do what the democrats have done. They accused donald trump of a crime, and then they try to reverse engineer a process to justify that accusation. So im not going to accuse any specific person of any specific crime. I just want there to be a fair process to get there. What i do know as a former federal prosecutor is it does appear that there were crimes committed during the Obama Administration. We talked earlier about michael flynn. His phone call with the Russian Ambassador was a highly classified nsa intercept. Someone in the Obama Administration leaked that call to washington post. Thats a felony. Glenn simpson from fusion gps, in talking about the steele dossier, said under that he and bruce ohr did not meet until after the election. Bruce ohr said under that they met three months before the lets. One of them before the election. One of them is not telling the truth. We need a process to identify that. Where it all started, jim comey. He admitted that he leaked his confidential conversations with the president to a reporter. Did that include classesfied information . Classified information . We need a fair processes to find out answers to that. I trust, because bill barr has earned my trust already and the trust of the American People, that therell be a fair processes with john durham and with Michael Horowitz to get answers to that and provide accountability where it really belongs. Maria and, obviously, if youve got a team of clinton donors like Andrew Weissman and the others that you mentioned, they are not going to have much enthusiasm to go investigate why Hillary Clinton and her Campaign Paid for a dossier of, you know, lies about donald trump. Well, the special counseling told us special counsel told us, the words from his own mouth is that they didnt do it. Maria yeah. And if they didnt do it, the only place we can get the answers is from the Justice Department right now. The American People want that. Their faith and trust, maria, has been shaken in our Justice Department, and the only way to get that back is real accountability with a fair process. Again, i are supreme confidence in bill barrs ability to deliver that. And at the end of the day, wherever the outcome may be as long as we know that the process was fair, the evaluation was fair, justice will be done. Look, the truth also defends itself. Maria all right. Were going to go. I want to talk about Joseph Mifsud, because i know that if it is established that he was, in fact, working for western intel like the cia, then we know that this was all entrapment. Were going to talk about that with George Papadopoulos. Congressman, good to see you this morning. Thank you. Thanks, maria. Maria his name was referenced more than 30 times during muellers testimony this week. George papadopoulos how his interact with that mysterious man helped launched the fbi man helped launched the fbi probe into the trump cam all Money Managers might seem the same, but some give their clients cookie cutter portfolios. Fisher investments tailors portfolios to your goals and needs. Some only call when they have something to sell. Fisher calls regularly so you stay informed. And while some advisors are happy to earn commissions whether you do well or not. Fisher investments fees are structured so we do better when you do better. Maybe thats why most of our clients come from other Money Managers. Fisher investments. Clearly better money management.

Excuse me . what . I dont know your phone number. Aw well. He doesnt know our phone number you have our fax number, obviously. Todays xfinity service. Simple. Easy. Awesome. Ill pass. Before you have arrested George Papadopoulos in july of 2017, he was given 10,000 in cash. In israel. Do you know who gave him that cash . Again, thats outside our aim and questions such as that, you go to fbi or the department. But it involved your investigation. It involved persons involved in my investigation. Maria that was Robert Mueller dodging questions about a mysterious 10,000 cash payment that former Trump Campaign aide George Papadopoulos said he received in july of 2017. He broke that news on this program a couple of months ago. George papadopoulos is back with me right now, hes the author of the book deep state target, and thats exactly what he was. George, thanks so much for joining us. Thanks a lot for having me, maria who gave you the money, george . I was very happy to see that devon can nunes brought that up. A man gave me this money under very suspicious circumstance, and a simple Google Search about this individual will demonstrate that he was cia or a state Department Asset in south africa during the 90s and the 2000s. I think around the time when bob mueller was actually the director of fbi. So i have my theory of what that really was all about. The money, i gave it to my attorney because i felt it was given to me under very suspicious circumstances, and upon coming back to United States i had about seven or eight fbi agents rummaging through my luggage looking for money. Maria so in other words, you are given money in israel, 10,000 in cash. You dont keep the money, you send it and give it to your lawyers, and then you get on a flight to go home, when you land at dulles, there are fbi agents arresting you asking do you have any money. Basically, thats exactly what happened. And what i think this whole setup was all about was trying to frame a violation against me that i was under some sort of illicit surveillance for actually, i think, years leading up to and during my time on the Trump Campaign. We probably dont have enough time to get into it right now, but im pretty sure what its going to demonstrate and probably add context to why bob mueller was illustrating in his Mueller Report that George Papadopoulos was being investigated for husband ties to israel. His ties to israel x. Then, of course, this 10,000 which which i believe was a setup by the fbi likely or even the special counsels office, it was designed to make it look like i was actually some sort of Foreign Agent which i never have been and i never will be. And thats, quite frankly, what i think that was all about. Maria yeah. We have a timeline here on screen, and it goes back to all the way in the beginning when you first got that job at the International Center of law practice, and you said to them, look, i want to leave because i want to go work for donald trump. And they said, wait, wait, before you leave, we dont want you to leave because we want you to go to rome at this important symposium because there are a lot of people that you should be meeting in rome. And, of course, one of those people was Joseph Mifsud who ended up telling you that russia had Hillary Clintons emails. Thats absolutely correct. So about the moment i joined the Trump Campaign, im being invited by the former foreign minister the of italy foreign minister of italy to meet Joseph Mifsud. By a company which i used to work for which is connected to mi6. So clearly, there was some sort of global or at least european radar on me while i was living in london and as soon as i was joining the Trump Campaign, which not even the media knew at the time, im being introduced to Joseph Mifsud in rome at a school that trains the cia and the fbi. Why i was introduced to Joseph Mifsud now that we know that theyre connected to the mi6 and even the fbi makes things even more suspicious and a lot more damning, in my opinion. Maria well, its interesting that the issues that you went through given the fact that you were, you know, doing your own work, but they wanted to know what you knew about Hillary Clintons emails after mifsud told you that. Why did they arrest you when you landed in dulles . It just because they is it just because they suspected you had 10,000 in cash . Actually, because the money wasnt with me. As i explained, i had given it to my lawyer because i wasnt interested in some sort of shady business abroad. I get there and then all of a sudden the prosecutors are about an hour late to detail what exactly i was being charged with, and that was lying to the fbi. Maria wow. And then later we find out that the lie was about me misremembering when i met Joseph Mifsud a year before the fbi came to interview me. Maria george, it sounds like you did everything right.

Good evening, everybody, capitol hill was supposed to be a political battleground today, the man who led the witch hunt against the president who has worked tirelessly to make america great. Despite the efforts of the radical dems to overthrow the presidency of donald trump, it was no contest, the party of hate could only watch as former special Counsel Robert Mueller came undone, just like his almost twoyearold long investigation that ended with the president s vindication, despite the dems hate, the trump economy is great
