Underlying raw intel, on which the memo was paced. he went to his league and long-time friend andrew mccabe and said i dont think you want to confront. this i think its time for you to go. >> martha: but, in terms of the fisa process, judge, there is a judge that approves -- a panel of judges that approve these requests. thats supposed to be the stop gap in these situations. if something phoney in a dossier is brought before the judges they are supposed to say this doesnt add up. >> but the judg...

In a negotiating position because they feel the last time around that they got the better of this shutdown mess. i dont think anybody really thinks they are going to get it all wrapped up before february, which means in the short term you look at another continuing resolution. there is confidence that they are in a better negotiating position overall. >> dana: one strange thing that the house republicans decided to make, today is the day they push forward on the releasing of the congressman nune...

Abuses he raised which i think goes to the heart of the question and he would not answer why there might be atron release the republican version of events until the democratic memo can go through similar clearance proce process. he did order a four point defense. he read it off of a piece of paper, he very carefully crafted the things he wanted to say here, hes clearly spent a lot of time thinking about it. the first thing he said was he believes there are legitimate questions about the use of t...

Immigration done. you know the president will be talking about this, you know the president will be talking about, for example, national security which well discuss later on in the show as well as tax reform and hell also be discussing infrastructure, something that marc short referenced just a moment ago, questions about whether that is truly politically feasible to do moving forward. paul ryan is set to take some questions and while he does, we want to continue the conversation. marc, can i br...

Proposal. >> so thats off the table? >> were taking the visas and say apply those to the backlog. lets expedite that process. it takes 10 to 15 years, lets expedite that process so i dont think were going to cut legal immigration. >> when you talk about the presidents speech, its not just immigration, hell be talking about the economy, trying to strike a tone of bipartisanship, thats different from when i heard the president speak a year ago when he talked about american carnage. has his view po...

Dangerous precedent for the white houses control over the fbi and its happening because he makes it personal. >> do you think robert mueller will want to talk to andy mccabe? >> he probably already has and will continue to do so. thats another part of this process that is ongoing but spot on. everything thats happening here, especially looking at it from a potential obstruction of justice case, everything that is happening here is theres another straw in the campbells back, it wont be one thing,...

Memo the majority wrote. yesterday the majority wrote to provide access. the process is this, youve probably reported on it which is a memo gets released to the broader members, they read it then you go and scrub to make sure that no sources and medis are being compromiseden this you go through the process of releasing it. this memo is going through that process and unlike the democrats on the intelligence committee who voted to deny access to this memo to the broader members, reports sported do...

Never used this power to release documents ever before. >> its hard to overstate what a big deal this is. this has never been used in the history of our republic, as far as somebody can tell. it seems to be designed to allow congress to blow the whistle on serious wrongdoing in the intelligence committee. when democrats were investigating cia torre cuturto didnt use the rule. >> what about the republicans memo but not seeing the democrats memo? >> it is a rigged game to fair-minded observers. re...

Confident that we are none of that work has been done on that new memo but the republicans allowed the rest of the members to meet it. >> reporter: why not hold back? >> youve asked enough. >> reporter: why not ask the republicans to wait and release it at the same time as democrats to release theirs? >> well go through the process as the process is laid out and its ironic that the majority voted to give access to this memos while the minority voted to deny that access so i think the irony is ri...

Part of the fbi in making this application to the foreign intelligence court. so thats the guts of it here. its up to the president to decide whether to release it. we dont know to what extent the justice department will weigh in on this. we know the justice department feels strongly this isnt the way to do things. this whole procedure is extraordinary. committees are supposed to investigate things and report what they find out when theyre done but all these committees that have been looking int...
