Application of the law. you can go down a long laundry list of missed deeds by this cabal of democrative annives at the fbi and department of justice. we have to get to the bottom of that. we have a new attorney general whose most important responsibility in my opinion is to get a thorough airing of all of these issues, hold the people accountable for breaking the law and restore confidence in the impartiality of our justice department. >> i think everyone would agree with that. a lot of informa...

>> they keep threatening it but if you look at the letter, i dont think theyre going to subpoena him to come back. this is just ridiculous the way this has unfolded as it is, unprecedented quite frankly. >> harris: congressman biggs, thank you. now back to the live hearing in front of the house judiciary committee, acting ag matthew whitaker. >> i am concerned about many alarming developments in the conduct of the fbi and the department of justice to call its impartiality into question would hav...
