Just a moment ago you heard james comey talking about the inspector general report he called it a vindication. critical of the fbi practices the report found no foundation for the baseless charges by president trump and allies of a coup or treason. the fbi the report says properly opened the investigation. earlier i spoke to democratic senator who sits on the senate judiciary committee about the conclusions in the report. as well as the administration reaction to it. >> the inspector general rep...

He is the prosecutor who was handpicked by bar to lead a separate investigation. heres what he said. he said he disagrees with some of the reports conclusions. what hes doing is is speaking out since there is an ongoing investigation. what is going -- is that unusual? >> yeah, its very unusual, right? so its another break from protocol. as i think we all learned from what happened during the clinton investigation with director comey, right, there are policies and procedures at doj that you do no...

Of duty had we not begun it, it is satisfying to finally see those words in print. >> jim, did you anticipate this a.g. coming out and raining on his own agencys parade? >> no, i didnt. i probably should have given the statements he made about the mueller investigation. but i did not see that one coming quite frankly, and it was disappointing given, as andy was saying, the conclusions are quite clear that the presidents statements over these past several years were all wrong, that there was no h...

Can you imagine how damning that would be if they just sat on this? enste instead, you have an attempt by the attorney general to minimize what the i.g. has found and his conclusions and to call into doubt and basically throw his own department under the bus. its incredibly disappointing, and i say that as somebody who got his offer letter from the department of justice signed by bill barr in 1992. >> thats an interesting coincidence. counselor, thank you for joining us tonight. its an important...

And another just caught seven guilty verdicts. on obstruction, muellers team laid out close to a dozen questionable acts but didnt make a judgment because of an olc opinion, a legal letter that sitting presidents shouldnt be indicted. so barr spun his own agencys findings in a way that flatters this president and then launched his own investigation with his own handpicked employee to chase down his own suspicions of lying. and lo and behold, his guy pulled a comey today. that means that john dur...

Boss. as ive stated before, barr acts more like president trumps personal attorney than the nations chief attorney. former fbi director james comey is pleased with the inspector generals conclusions, saying the actions taken by the bureau have been vindicated. he was on andersons show earlier, talking about his vindication. interestingly enough, he was scheduled to be on "fox & friends" tomorrow morning. but after the conclusion reached by the i.g., he says his appearance was canceled. >> they d...
