Democracy, by asking to investigate what happened. i will tell you, republicans like devin nunes are pushing back tonight, saying that sally yates and other obama officials are just trying to divert attention from the real story, that in the words of nunes, a red line was crossed with the fbi allegedly infiltrated the trump campaign and allegedly spied on it. a that meeting you mentioned, the president with rod rosenstein, christopher wray, the fbi director, they basically -- the president was d...

What is your response to y everything youve heard over the weekend? >> well,l, obviously, im not going to comment on the specific facts, thats really up to the department of justice to decide on what information should be made public with respect to that. but i think what we are seeing here is the president has just taken his all-out assault on the rule of law to a new level. this time, he is ordering an investigation of the investigators. they are examining his ownwn campaign. you know, that is...

Information, a slow bleed, to cover themselves. it is all a cya. remember,no they know whats out there. they know they are about to get caught. this is all about controlling the narrative, spinning the narrative, trying p to protect themselves and they probably learned a thingro or two from hillary about acid washing hard drives. weve got to be careful. there is another major component to all of this. rosenstein knows that the inspector general, he doesnt have any real prosecutorial power. horwi...

Tries to use the department of justice as the private investigatory body, that is not good for the country. the big thing here, this is not about spying on his campaign. its about what the russians are doing. were they attempting to infiltrate the campaign? that was a concern, and that, in my belief, is what focus of this whole activity was about. >> sean: the same clapper who braggedea about the fbi spying n the trump campaign and said it was a good thing? this is problematic. then theres good ...

Inspector generals are good in certain circumstances. heress the problem with mr. horwitz. he cannot interview any of the people who have led the department of justice were fbi. he has no subpoena authority. so all of the people who were part of the plot and were in doj and the fbi are gone. he cant talk to them. all he can do is review documents and talk to whoever is left to do that. what we need is a federal grand jury with a prosecutor, doesnt have to be a special counsel, and by the way, le...

Members in the nypd and the fbi. and you say bad cops. i know the 99% are not. they are good people for this country. but we know tonight, you have been right, and what we have been reporting, sara included, she has been right. >> i think the sad thing about this, he watched someone like sally yates who was the deputy attorney general under obama and acting attorney general for a while, complain about the rule of law and the violation of it would she and brennan and comey and others destroyed th...

During the obama administration, we wouldnt have had all of the bumbles that john brennan was entangled in, everything from helping design the lies about the benghazi video, bungling the investigation of -- bright, the fast and furious, the underwear bomber, and even going so far as to downplay recidivism of the gitmo terrorists and being soft on jihad. the fact that these guys have been so invested, and their ideological agenda, and their partisanship that they were not doing their job and prot...

About what is happening. he has every right to want to know the truth. you, the american people, need to know the truth. we need to expose all of this criminal behavior, all of these deep state actors need to be exposed, and all of them held accountable. the deputy attorney general, rod rosenstein, okay, hes quick to respond to president trump, demanding the department of justice get to the bottom of it all. so rosenstein is trying to make himself hard to be a hero but its a total farce. heres w...
